For the Record

Before I get started, I would like to joiri._ the Editor in welcoming ·back all of the returning students and faculty as well as this year's incoming freshmen. Gook luck during the 1982-83 school ;1ear at PSC!

Now I know that I shouldn't start off the new year by talking about -something negative right away, but this is something tha'.t has bothered me ever since I have known Peru State College. The problem is that we probably have the worst press box facilities in the NAIA. The place is horrible.

First of all, it is not situated in the middle of the field. The middle of the box is even with the 30-yard line, making it almost next to impossible to figure out what yard 1line the ball

is on down at the other end of the field.

Second, there ·is not enough room for all of the stat crew members to sit. Also, at last Saturday night's game, the coaches and cameramen had to sit on top of the press box t<f do their job. What .would have happened if it had rained?

There is also rather inadequate phone outlets for visiting radio stations. The Hastings station, KHAS, had to use one of our phones to broadcast the game last Saturday. Press box space is being taken up by the concession stand next to it. The concession stand should be relocated up the hill a little, away from the bleachers. Also, the .bugs and other· insects were almost unbearable

last Saturday night. There is nothing in there to keep them out, and lean hardly wait until the temperatures get down into the 40's and 50's.

Just think, we almost qualified for the NAIA playoffs two years ago and again last year; If we had hosted a playoff game, the o.ther team would have laughed us off of our own field before the game even started!

Maybe the Oak Bowl press boxes were adequate enough for the days when they were built, but this is the 1980s. We need a press box to match the times.

Some of you may not agree with what- I have written. But this is the way I feel and I know many people who work there feel this way as well.

And if you don't believe me, please come to ·our next home game and find ·out for yourself.

Editor's Note:

I would like to take this opportunity to Welcome back all of the· returning students and faculty and extend a warm

The potential in 1982-83 seems very competitive, in academi as well as athletics. welcome to the incoming freshmen and new -staff membe.rs to the Campus of a Thousand Oaks.

We start this year with another group of inexperienced writers and a new Ped staff. We are optimistic that we will improve and provide a · good service to the Campus. Lett;trs to the editor are encouraged and welcomed. I hope that everyqne has a successful year and enjl)ys school at PSC, home of The Bobcats!

Peru has been noted for its beautiful campus, friendly people, and fine academics, and this year looks to be no exception. .;

l,Jbbcats Hope to Improve Saturday

Coach Jerry Joy's Peru State ' Bobcats hopeto put together two consistant halves in tomorrow night's 14th annual Applejack Bowl against Tarkio College in Nebraska City.

The Bobcats hope to improve on last week's 35-19 loss to the Hastings Broncos at the Oak Bowl.

Hastings broke out in the first half with a 21-point first half, beginning with a 9-yard run by running back John Wroblewski on the. opening drive. The Broncos went ahead 14-0 when Jeff Branting received a 23-yard pass from Quarterback Ron Pochop.

After the Bobcat offense stalled, Pochop capped a second quarter drive as he ran the ball across from 8 yards out;-making the score 21-0 at the intermission.

After the break, Peru State received the second half kickoff but was unable to move the ball. Wasting little time, the Broncos scored again when Pochop threw 23 yards to Flanker Tony

After each team traded possessions, Nose guard Todd Ross set up the Bobcats' first score when he intercepted· a Pochop pass on the Hastings 20 yard line and returned it to the 16. Peru scored six plays later on

a 2-yard run by running back Dayid Pasley at 1:17 of the third period. The conversion attempt failed on a bad snap, leaving the score 27-6 with one quarter left to play. ·

In the 4th quarter;·. the Bobcats' defense bega)l to stiffen, most noteably in the 1 defensive line. ·The 'Cats scored on 'their next drive, capped by.a 1-yard drive by Junior signalcaller Mark Sievers. Rex Freeburg's conversi9n made the score 27-13, Broncos.

After a Peru State onside kick failed, the defense rose to the occasion once again, stopping the Broncos in three plays.

On the following series, the Bobcats marched down the field to score on Siever's second one yard run of the ball game. After failing to convert the 2 pt. attempt, the score read 27-19.

With the momentum changing to the defense, Peru held the Hastings offense in check, giving the Bobcats one more chance to tie the score. But as luck would have it, after driving to the Bronc's 16 yd. line, a bad center snap caused a costly turnover, leaving just 2:30 left on the clock.

A 52-yard run by Tony Ochsner iced the game, with the final stariding at 35-19.

The Reagan Administration has embarked on a major initiative to collect delinquent and defaulted loans under the National Direct and Guaranteed Student Loan Programs. It is anticipated that $80 million will be collected in 1983. Congress has '·been asked to allow funds collected on delinquent loa.ns ·to be recycled in the loan programs. Returning money to the loan funds would make more money available to future college students.

Student aid reform proposed by the Reagan Administration re-established the fundamental principal that a student and his or her family share the primary responsibility for meeting college costs. The Federal and State government have a r,ole in bridging the gap between what a family can reasonably contribute and the cost of attending college. Only by maintaining its fiscal integrity can the Federal government continue to play its part in bridging this gap through student aid programs.

Letter to the Editor

Dear Editor, I.have noticed a small problem for quite son;ie time now, and though it's not earth shaking, it is a problem to be looked into

I have walked the campus an uncountable number of times, and when at night, if a person wants to reach Delzell either coming or going, or just anywhere, he usually passes by the college auditorium. The lighting, or lack of it, provides almost nothing in which to walk by. The walk has a row of hedges on each. side and a numerous number of trees bordering it. Very little· light shines on the path, which can be intimidating if a person is alone at night.

I propose that a light pole or a' light be. attached on the southeast corner of the auditor-

and

ium to provide a safer place to walk. I realize there are other. matters of more importance, but if you ask the people who go by, I think they will be in full agreement. I. had originally planned to place my idea in· the suggestion .box, but I think that this problem· deserves a prompt course of. action. Thank you.

Observes Anniversary

The Delta Sigma Phi fraternity celebrated its 'first anniversary September 14 after being initiated one year ago.

Lee Fellers, president of the fraternity, says that ·membership is the group's number one goal. Even though the group hasn't grown in numbers, he is

SBA Gathers

Students for Black Awareness met last Wednesday to discuss campus activities and the group's. upc()ming events.·

Thenew pfficers for this year are: Alexander Appleton, President; Terrell Williams, VicePresident; Valla Pendleton, Secretary; Del()res Wright, Treasurer; Perry Scott, Sergeant-at-arms; and Jerald Hill,. Public Relations; and Allyne McKinney, public r.elations. Sponsor for the SBA are Peggy Gibbs and Dana· Stratton.

The organiiation discussed · their float for homecoming, The theme agreed upon was "Thanksgiving." ·

The SBA is planning many activities for the near future. Fof the month of October, the organization .is anticipating a skating party, a bake sale, and a rafOe. On the agenda for the months ·of November and December is a variety show, an auction, and another party.

Terrell Williams, Vice-President, stated, "We are striving for academic and social excellence." Williams expressed that although SBA has scheduled a number of social events, academics are also stressed.

"We .have study sessions, tutoring and counselling," he ·added.

The organization wants to become academically and socially involved with the ·entire student body as well as the faculty. SBA plans to motivate black students on campus to stay in Peru by giving them identity and something to look forward to. "This can help Peru keep black enrollment up in the long run." Williams commented.

optimistic about the fraternity's future.

Fellers says one, ·Qf the biggest worries stu\iepUi,have is the money involved, burhe feels that Delta Sigma Phi is relatively cheap compared to most.

Another worry he listed was basing, the physical or mental ;i.buse given to ple<iges. But he can assure that this will not happen because it has been outlawed in his fraternity.

Delta Sigma Phi. is a "social frat" who's basic concern is service: Members also promote academics, leadership development, brotherhood and sportsmanship.

The fraternity's service programs this year will go to the March .of Dimes, their National Philantrophy.

The group has moved into a new fraternity house across from Morgan Hall, which houses five members now, but has ample room for three or four people to a room.,

October 16 will be Founders' Day, commemorating the original founders of the fraternity. A dinner-dance will be held for parents and alumni as well as members of the fraternity.

Many goals have been set for this year. An AAU swim meet in the HPER center, dances

throughout the year, and a coronation ball in the spring are all on tb..e"tentative•.schedule.

For 1foroecoming; the fraternity has entered a float in the parade and will run a refreshment stand.

Although only a colony, Fellers wants to see Peru's chapter become "charterized," which he says can be done if enoµgh freshmen pledge.

The colony will get a boost this year with the development of an alumni control board, on August 15 of this year. The board is comprised of alumni who will help lay down. standards for things such as initiation and give a eye over them. Fellers said that if anyone is interested in pledging during the rush period, contact any of the fraternity members.

Tarkio Surprises Bobcats at Appleiack

What a differerh:e a year makes! ·

Last vear, the game was never in doubt. This year, it came down to the last five minutes.

Last ·year ·the heroes were named. Alvin Holder and Doug Barlow. This year, they were known as Jay Fohey and Mike Butt.

Last year, the winning team wore blue and gray. This year's winning colors were purple and silver. - ·

What a difference a yt!ar makes! '

This fact was. etched in everyone's minds as they left Pfoneer. Field last Saturday night following Tarkio College's 20-10 upset of the PSC Bobcats at the 14th Applejack Bowl.

Many of the.fans settled down into their seats before the game with thoughts of last year's 64-0 win by Perll still dancing in their heads.

It appeared that\ this game would be identical at the beginning as the Bobcats recovered a fumble deep down in Owl territory and scored

moments later on a 36-yard field goal by Rex'Freeburg with 12:02 left in the first quarter.

.But that was all the points the Bobcats were to score in the first half against a game Owl defense. The Bobcats had one other opportunity but was stopped on fourth down at the Owl one.

· Meanwhile, Tarkio had problems moving the ball as well until midway through the second quarter when Quarterback Mike Butt drilled a pass to David Johnson who ran all the way into the end zone to complete a 63-yard scoring play.

Both teams played to a standoff in the third period but in the fourth quarter the Bobcats · retook the lead. From the Owl one yard line, Mark Sievers faked the ball to halfback David Pasley and ran un.molested around the right side and into the end zone for the score with 13 :13 left to play.

The Bobcats had another chance to score minutes later _ following a Tarkio punt. But Rex

· Freeburg's 27-yard · field goal attempt was wide to the right. From that point on, it was all Tarkio as Owl fullback Jay Fohey ran the Bobcat defense ragged, finishing the game with 69 yards on 16 carries.

The Owls took the lead for good with 3:17 remaining as Fohey ran the final 6 yards of a IO-play, SO-yard drive. Ablocked extra-point by Todd Kiplinger kept the Bobcats within a field goal of Tarkio, 13-10.

But the Bobcats hopes of even tying the game with a field goal went up in smoke. as David Pasley was stopped short on a fourth-and-two at the Bobcat 18. Tarkio capped the scoring and the game with 1:40 ·remaining .when Mike Butt scored on a quarterback sneak.

Jay Fohey received the Bob Lade Offensive Player of the Game award while the Bobcats' Todd Ross captured the defensive award. Ross had five tackles and seven assists, sacked the quarterback twice for 20 yards in losses and recovered two Owl rumbles.

With regard to the selection procedure, Miller said students ·are asked to apply for scholarships J>y April 1 prior to the year of award. Information on the applicants' GPAs, ACT scores and specific requirements of the individual scholarships are collected. Applicants are classified as returning students, freshmen and transfers. The information is then passed on to the Student Affairs Commission which is composed of three members of the student personnel' staff; namely, the dean for student development, financial aid director and director for housing; six faculty members from the six college divisions and three students appointed by the student senate president. The Commission then makes the selections for the awards.

and Letter to the Editor

More· and more people are joining the National Guards in the 80's. They are finding it helpful to pay for college and to assist in special areas of study. The tfine spent is minimal and the work is challenging. The pay and benefits are good, and the experience itselL is fun and socially pleasant.

I joined the National Guards April 3, 1982 because I needed money for college. I'm writing this because I think it's important to let people know what a great advantage the Guards can be to your education. This is n«?t to persuade you to join in any way, only to let you know a little about the g\Uirds and how they can help.

I needed an education and turned .to the Guards for help. Not only will they train me in a specialized field, but they will pay 75 per cent of my tuition to any state supported college or technical school. ·

There are two basic parts included in an education through the Guards: Basic Training and Advanced Individual Training, or 1\.IT. Basics is routinely set exercises ·of assistance and protection if in a warfare situation. I learned to fight and protect myself as well as others under enemy attack. One great advantage about basics is that it only lasts about nine weeks and you can take it any time you like so it won't interfere. with your education. AIT is your choice of specialized schooling. There are

many to choose ranging from cooking to mechanics, and communications to airborne training. Both basics and AIT ax:e physically challenging but are not excessively so. I am also getting paid approximately $500 to $600 dollars a month, depending on rank. There will be bonus·pay of $1,500 to. $2,000 dollars in installments presented ··to me after completion of my AIT. Believe me, both the good · physical condition and the • money you get can be of great help to an education.

Money and physical training are not · all the Guards offer towards my education. It also broadens. my socialability by meeting new people and seeing how they live. their lives. It · helped me to learn more about myself and build my self-confidence and esteem. I was taught how to discipline myself, think positive and participate. All of these things will benefit an education in different ways.

After basics and AIT I am only required to go to a meeting once. a month and two weeks of camp every summer. I'm getting paid, $75 for ·each weekend, and $300 dollars for summer camp. (These wages vary according to your rank.)

If you have the time and want to make those few sacrifices, the Guards could be a great advantage to your education. It was to mine. Sincerely, Wendy Meyer.

For the Record

By Don Strecker

Now that the National Football League ·Players' Union and the • NFL owners have decided to show everyone that their baseball counterparts aren't the only idiots running around, let's se.e how exciting Sunday afternoons have become.

For instance, last Sunday we could have watched some tough NFL matchups, featuring Pittsburgh Denver, and the New York Giants :vs. Dallas. What'we got instead wa!) the actionpacked college f.ootball game between Wittenberg and Bald(sounds like some kind of1aw firm).

· The second game was just as pressure-packed as the highly respected University of San Diego (Chickens?> played Occidental University ·(don't ask me where the !+&!+it's at).

If those games aren't your style, tl\ere was also Canadian football with .12 men on a side, three downs to get a first down, and a field that is about a mile

and a half long (actually, it's only 160 yards long, counting the 25 yard end zones)

Now, I don't mind Canadian football. As a matter of fact; I like it mainly because it is so wide open and high scoring. But if I had a choice between the Oakland, er, Los Angeles Raiders and the Saskatchewan Roughriders, I'd take the Raiders any 'day. ·.

Personally; I think the. NFL strike is stupid. Both sides are supposed ,to be headed by groWn men, not little kids who call people names when they don't get their way. ·

The football strike is; causing so much headache that it's not even funny. The cities with NFL franchises are losing millions of dollars every week that the games are not played.

The league has lost 14 games "" so far to the strike. Seven more games are set to go doWn the tubes this weekend unless .the players'union and the owners can agree on something.

Greed, that's all it is. Two sides that wantas much as they can get without giving anything in return. I thought that maybe the two sides learned something by watching the baseball players make fools of themselves (On second thought, the NFL players are doing such a good job of making fools of themselves,

maybe they did learn something).

And we, the fan, suffer the most. We have to sit at home and watch the Baldwin-Wallace Nonames and the Wittenberg Strangers pound on each other for a while. I mean, who cares?

So, here's hoping that the NFL strike will• be settled by next weekend so that t.he pro season can b.e ·resumed.

Save a life.

.Bobcats Face No. 7 Northwestern

For the second straight week, the Peru State Bobcats will play one of the top rated teams in the NAIA when they travel to Orange City, la., on Saturday, Oct. .9, to face the' seventh-rated Northwestern College Red Raiders.·

Peru lost to 12th ·rated Benedictine, 45-14, last Saturday. After Northwestern, Peru will play 10th rated Chadron State in Peru on Oct. 16.

"This is one of the toughest schedules we have ever had," Peru Coach Jerry Joy said. "Concordia, Benedictine, Northwestern, and Chadron are all capable of finishing in the top ten this year." Peru lost to the Concordia Bulldogs, 21-9, on Sept. 26.

"I think we are capable of beating both Northwestern and Chadron if we start executing well and stop turning the ball over so much," Joy said after the disappointing Homecoming loss to Benedictine.

Peru led for most of the first half against Benedictine before Raven kicker Terry Armer set an Oak Bowl record with a 53 yard field goal to give his team a 15-14 half-time lead.

"That field goal changed the game; it gave them the

momentum going into the second half," Joy said.

Peru was never in the game in the second half, turning the ball over six times and losing a total of five yards in total offense. Fiv&. of the Six turnovers were inside the Bobcat 29-yard 1ine, three inside the five.

"These turnovf:!rs really killed us, we never got our defense off the field," said Nick Petrillo, Peru's defensive coordinator.

"We are a young team and we're making the mistakes you expect an°inexperienced team to make," Joy said, "We need to mature and get more leadership out of our younger players." ·

The Bobcats are young. Joy started only two seniors against the Ravens, offensive tackle Mitch Egger and center Dan King, Egger is a four-year starter, King a three-year starter.

"I'm pleased with Mitch and Dan's play; Mitch is probably the only four year starter we've ever had in the offensive line," said Dennis Obermeyer, offensive line coach.

"Our defensive backs can't afford to make a mistake against Northwestern," Petrillo said, "We're asking a lot of the young guys back there but I

think they are talented enough to do it." ·

Three of the four starters in the defensive backfield are freshmen; junior satiety and co-captain Neil Wolfe is the only defender who had any collegiate experience before this season. Freshman Fred Lee, Pat Mertens, John Register, and Mike Monroe are improving with each game but still lack the valuable experience that comes with age.

A loss at Northwestern this weekend would give Joy his first. losing season since 1976, his second season at Peru. The last time Peru lost to Benedictine was 1976. The last time a Peru team lost its first f6ur games was 1971.

"I do think we have a good team and there is plenty of time left to surprise some people," Joy said.

Doug Minchow, freshman linebacker from Wq..verly, set a team high for. the season with 16 total tackles against the Ravens. Minchow, who leads the team with 48 to'tal tackles for' the season, had seven unassisted and nine assisted tackles against Benedictine.

Peru's next home game is against Chadron on Oct. 16.

Lady Cats 3rd in Tourney

The Peru State Lady Bobcats finished in a tie for third place in the third annual Peru State Invitational volleyball tournament. Concordia· College defeated Platte to win the tournament.

The Lady Bobcats lost their semi-final match with Concordia, 5-15, 3-15. "We just never got into the match with Concordia," Coach Maxine Mehus said. Peru has played Concordia three times this season, losing all three matches.

"I was pleased with the way our team played, but I thought we could have done much better in the tournament," Mehus said. Robin Smith and Barb Peterson were both named to the all-totirnament team; receiving the most votes of any of the all-tournament performers.

Janet Adkins of Concordia, Pam Gogan and Sharon Vanis of

Platte, and Kathy Gottula of Southeast Community College were the other members of the all-tourney team. ·

Peru opened the tournament with a convincing win over Bellevue, 15-3, 15-8, before splitting with Southeast, 11-15, 15-9. The Lady Bobcats then crushed Dana, 15-1, 15-7, to advance to the semi-finals as champion of their pool.

Platte and Concordia finished first and second, respectively, in the other four-team pool. Tarkio and Midland Lutheran were the other members of that pool.

Platte beat Southeast, 15-7, 12-15, and 15-2 to advance to the ' finals before losing to Concordia. Concordia beat Platte, 15-7, 12-15 and 15-9.

Peru has played in three tournaments thus far and the Lady Bobcats have finished second once and third twice.

Their match record is 12-11-1, their game record, 32-30. "I'm pleased that, we're above 500 (winning percentage), but we should be playing better," Mebus· said.

Mel.ms said she was pleased with the play of Smith, Peterson and junior co-captain Carla Frauen. "Smith, Peterson and Frauen have given our team a lot of- leadership as well as consistent play," Mehus said.

Smith, a senior co-captain from Lincoln, and Frauen, also a Lincoln native, led the team with seven aces each in the tournament. Peterson, an· Omaha sophomore, led the team in kills.

Peru's next match is against Highland Community College on Tuesday, Oct. 5, in Highland.

The Lady Bobcats'· next home match ·is Oct. 20, against perennial rival Tarkio.

Mainstreaming Materials Shown in Media Center

Mainstreaming materials were displayed in the Instructional Media Center at PSC through Friday, September 30. Puppets, colored blocks, workbooks, text books, audio tape, and audio cassettes were among the items presented.

The mainstreaming materials which were purchased for $10,000 under the Dean's Grant Project, were coordinated by Dr. Paul A. Mars, associate professor of education and .director of the Dean's Grant Project on the PSC campus, and the project committee under the auspices of, the division of education and psychology at PSC.

Community and area people will have - access to the mainstreaming materials after they have been catalogued. They will be available for open circulation, he said.

The Dean's Grant Project committee includes: Dr. Esther Divney. chairperson of the division of education, Dr. Jack Hytrek. associate professor of education, and Dr. John Sachs, assistant professor of education at PSC.

Mars said that in 1975 the U.S. Congress passed Public Law 94-142, The Education for All Handicapped Children Act, which requires that all children and youth must be provided a free and appropriate education.

Mainstreaming, or including handicapped children in the normal clas8room setting, is a concept that. puts this law into action, he said. "Peru State College was the recipient of the first national Dean's Project grant last year and we have conducted weekend workshops on the concept with this year's workshop attracting 16 students from the area," Mars said.

According to Mars, students enrolled in the teacher education program become aware of concepts of education for handicapped students.

"Concepts of mainstreaming include least restrictive environment, rights of students, parents, and school personnel, and awareness- of children with special needs and the various types of children who have special needs."

The Dean's Grant Project advisory committee in addition to Mars, includes: Dr. Esther 'Divney, Dr. John Sachs, PSC, .lVIrs. Marilyn Stalder, Humboldt; Tod Kipling er, PSC sophomore; Dennis Curtis, Nebraska City; Mrs. Laurel Browning, Peru, and Mrs. Raedeahna Gerdes. Auburn.

The · campus task force committee in addition to Mars and Divney are: Jack Hamilton, Dr. Jack Hytrek, Kennard Larson, Nick Petrillo, Lyle McKercher, Dr. Norman Schlesser and Miss Wreathea Hicks.

Now that Beat The Jinx Week has come and gone, fot's reflect on the week's events_

Overall, Beat The Jinx Week was a great idea_ It brought the students together, added some · competative spirit between the dorms, and was much more fun than ju.st going to class. To prove my point, let's look at each day in retrospect.

Western Day-This day started off the week of activities. Students dressed up in western apparrel, ranging from ten-gallon hats. to cowboy boots. The whole day made the campus look like rodeo fairgrounds. I mean people were waiting for someone to come riding out of chttte three on Sea Biscuit or something. In the dorm competition, Morgan Hall came out on top by a wide margin for the day.

Dress Up Day-People looked like they were going to either a wedding or a funeral on this day. Some of the guys didn't bother _ getting totally dressed up; so they wore their suit tops and a pair of jeans: Others just didn't ·bother all together. Monday we were talking Calgary Stampede. Today, we were on Wall Street.

Paint Your Face-Now this was a classic. College students

and

Video Games; A New Wave

walking around with· paint on their face. Some only had a blue paw on their cheek. Others had some little designs on their face. Then, we had our student senate president, who came into the cafeteria at noon looking like a rainbow.

Punk Rock Day-This had to be the fruitest day of them all If Wendy 0. Williams or any of the Plasmatics decide to hang it up <whatever it is that punk rockers hang up) I think I know where their replacement can be found. There was.some weird outfits on that day. 'Ehls was probably the only day that you would see anyone dress in a Glad trash bag. Morgan .won the day· by a big margin once again.

Fifties Day-Kind of a "greasy" day, if you ask me <R-R-R>. Students made the campus look somewhat like it did 25-30years ago, as the Happy Days <or Daze) look was back in on Friday. Morgan.(where have I heard that name before) won the day and the week's competition and was awa.rded a trophy at the pep rally.

All in all, I thought that Beat The· Jinx Week was a great idea, and although we didn't beat the jinx, everyone had a ball. If that .was the whole idea of the week, it was a big success.

Ms. Pac Man is by far the favorite arcade game this year. In fact people wait in line for a chance to play it and the spectators gatber around- to watch people dare the muncher, said the director of the PSC arcade John Osenbaugh.

Mt. Osenbaugh also said that about twiCe as many girls are playing' video 'games due to Ms. Pac Man, although only a small per.cent of the girls on- campus play video games. The average persons plays for about 112 hour a day. Osenbaugh said that the arcade hours are from the9:00a.m. opening to the 8:00 p.m. closing and-' often .the arcade stays open until people are finished with their games. ·. , Students spen<lonthe averag_,e; : anywhere from r dollar up to 10 dollars a week. Although Ms. Pac Man is the most played game. Centipede takes :in more money because people not.as good at it and cannot as much tiine with the galne on one quarter. '

Along with Ms. Pac Man the · arcade presently has <;eI)'tipede; Mousetrap, and Missie Control'. With-the new vide<> game wave · the pin ball aren't played much any

Who is the athletic directior at hove: i; airlc:

By Vince Henzel

Every editor goes through a time when he will "catch a little hell" from someone. It can be in the way he does his job, or in what he says. I ran into some by accident, or should I say by sticking my foot into my mouth at the wrong time.

While eating supper one night, not paying attention to what I was saying, I made an ill-advised statement about the Student Senate. A member of that group was sitfutg across the table one chair down. He didn't take kindly to what I said. Word got quickly to the Senate President, and before the evenirig had concluded, he and I had a long discussion about ·the activities they are working on.

I realize what an important group the senate is and that they are trying to improve their image. He felt, and I was in total agreement, that they were not ·.getting fair coverage. A lack of communication has taken place somewhere. Who.'s fault that is we really didn't come to an answer, but some things need· to be pointed out: (1) the student has not had the reputation like that of other small or state colleges. (2) most or nearly all the students don't attend the meetings, (3) participation in the senate activities hasn't been .as good as it could be. (4) what coverage they have received has

All of these factors have lead up to the point that we now stand. What can be done to break the communication· barrier between the PED and the senate, or any other groups for that matter. From the stand.point of the senate, a few things must be considered: (1) can the college operate efficiently on just one .photographer. The · senate has investigated the possibility of hiring their· own photographer. (2) -should · a member of the PED staff be assigned the specific:. duties of going to the meetings to be a correspondent. (3) does the senate need work-study students to aid them in publicizing their activities.

The senate president and I continued our discussion and agreed that both sides- are very busy and are doing the best they can. Maybe some type of format can be established between these two groups,. that will help others as well.

I was reminded of a few things by all o( this. What we put out will be as good as the. ·effort we put into it, which applies to all things, whether it be the PED, sports, or grades. We should expect criticism in anything we do, because someone will always think that he knows how· it should be done. •But I think I will remember most is to watch what !'.m sayi?g, front of whom

Chadron, a thorn in the Bobcats side for recent years won its third straight game · PSC. The Eagles victories over the Bobcats the past two seasons have spelled doom to the 'Cats playoff chances.

CIJadron rolled up 268 yards rushing, 81 of those yards on the strength of fullback Willy Long. Long, a 225-pound senior from Arthur, Neb., scored two of the three Eagle touchdowns, both from a yard out.

The 1'9th-ranked Eagles showed their defensive strength also, shutting out their opponent for the fourth time this year.

Chadron has only allowed 23 points all season and only one time have they allowed more than 3 points in a game (a 20-13 loss to Dickinson State, N.D.).

"I saw a more balanced Chadron team than I've seen in

years," said Bobcat Coach Jerry Joy. "They're better fundamentally and they play hard. I thought· we could wear them down and beat them."

Placekicker Rick Hamilton started off the scoring by kicking a 25-yard field goal with 6:00 left in the opening period of play.

The Eagles moved to a 10-0 halftime-lead when Long went over from a yard out, capping an eight-plc:iy, 51-yard drive.

Long started off the second half scoring with another one-yard run, bulling his way through the left side of the Bobcat defense. ·

"Long really hurt us," Joy said. "He's the hardest back we've had to stop. To play him, your linebackers have to be 225 and your line 275."

Hamilton added his second field goal of the game, this one from 29 yards away with 10:42 left to play in the contest.

Todd Drury capped the Chadron scoring with a 3-yrd plunge with only 21 seconds left.

Peru State lost more than just

the ballgame, however. The Bobcats' starting halfback and leading rushet, Jeff George, suffered a broken shoulder. George will be out for the remainder of the year.

The Bobcats also lost the services of defensive tackle Perry Scott, who strained a ligament in his tight knee during the second half. He is expected to be bac'K for the Westmar game a week from tomorrow.

Bobcat Quarterback 'Mark Sievers enjoyed a good day passing, completing 11 out of 21 passes for 151 yards. He. completed several of those passes with two or three

defenders breathing down his throat.

Chadron is now 1 on the year and will play host to the Mexico Educational Institute in an exhibition game before hosting Northwestern Iowa, ranked 4th in the NAIA Division II ratings. Peru State has the week off this.. week before hosting the Westmar next Saturday.

Lady Cats to to NWMSU

The Lady Bobcat volleyball team travels to Maryville, Mo., to play in the Northwest Missouri State University invitational volleyball tournament this weekend.

"There are some really strong teams in this tournament," Coach Maxine Mehus said, "Some of the toughest competition we face all season will be in this tourney."

Mehus hopes the team can break out of its recent slump and turn things around in the tournament in Maryville. The Lady Bobcats' record dropped below .500 for the season after a disasterous 0-7-1 stretch the past two weeks.

"I don't really know what happened to us," the coach said of the slump, "We just got behind in a few matches and never really got going."

One bright spot for the team was toe return of Jackie Schultz. The Tecumseh junior had been sidelined for three weeks with a severely sprained ankle. "I'd say Jackie is just about at full strength," Mebus said.

"Glevon Covault has played .well recently," Mebus said. The Table Rock junior is the team leader in serving effidency percentage.

Mebus lauded the play of co-captains Robin Smith and Carla Frauen. "Robin and Carla,,.. have been two of our most consistent .Players this season," Mebus said. The coach hopes that Frauen, who injured her hand in the match with Kearney will be at full strength for Northwest tourney.

"We're a young team and we're making the mistakes you expect young teams to make,

we have been improving and maturing throughout the season," the coach said.

Mehus said she is pleased with the development of freshmen Kelly Roll, Bonnie Mick, Tammy Lutzi, and Michelle Workman. "Those four ladies have come in and really helped the team. It hasn't taken them long to learn our system," Mehus said.

Mehus also said that junior college transfer Missy Trujillo has been playing well recently. Trujilh> is second on the team in assists.

"I'm pleased that so many people are contributing • this season; everyone has helped the team this season," Mebus said.

The last home match of the season is Tuesday, Oct. 26 against Highland Community College. '

Peru State Seniors Kip Allison, Bret Nanninga and Everett Smith have been named tri-captains of the 1982C83 Bobcat

basketball team.

Allison, a native of Stromsburg, led the team in rebounding last season. The 6-9 center averaged 6.1 rebounds per game and was third in scoring, ·averaging seven points per game. Allison, the son of Gary and Wanda Allison, has averaged 5.2 rebounds per game in · his career at Peru. Allison's married to the former Julie Brinkman.

For_ The Record

by Don Strecker

There have been many times that I have hj:!ard someone complain about the cafeteria. Either the food is terrible or there is no variety or there is this or there isn't that. But it was always something.

Let me correct that statement.

I used to try to defend the cafeteria. But after what happened- this past weekend, forget it.

For those of you who were not here this past weekend or have not heard yet, the cafeteria was closed. And not just Thursday and Friday, either. We're talking the whole weekend

I suppose it wouldn't be so bad for those who went home or who ljve close enough to Peru that they could go home. But what about the people from other states, such as Florida or Illinois? What about the people who live in western Nebraska? What were they supposed to do, go without eating for four days?

I tried to defend the cafeteria and the people who work in it. I can imagine how tough it is to cook for .all of those people and still have quality and variety.

The students of this school pay good money to ec:tt in the

cafeteria. So why did they decide to close it for four days? Who knows! ·

And while I'm on the subject of the cafeteria, there is another thing that bothers me. Everyone who eats there knows how they show you whaf is on the menu with sample plates. There is usually two or three plates setting there, each one showing a different dish that is being served at that meal. Each dish is covered with plastic wrap. ·

Well, do you know what theydo with that food when they are done showing everyone? They throw it away! Now .isn't that wonderful. There are people starving in other countires, people who would do anything for a taste of that food. And food is getting thrown away!

For some of you, I guess this doesn't sound very bad, mainly because all of us have thrown food away before. But if you watch a segment from the evening news of world hunger with graphic pictures and then go over to the cafeteria and see this happen, it sticks in your mind for awhile.

So .the next time you want to bad mouth the PSC._cafeteria, be my guest.

Letter to the Editor

There have been many times that I have been on this campus on or before a weekend, or a holiday weekend and either starved or to that undesirable point. I think this is really ridiculous to have the cafeteria· or the Bob Inn closed for those days, however many there might be.

What about the people that you willingly recruited from all over the United States? When I say the United States I'm talking about people from Tampa, Florida, Chicago, Illinois and Western Nebrnska. If I am correct, (and I know I am), we

Editorially Speaking Crime: Is It· a Problem?

by Vince Henzel

In a town the size of Peru, one tends to live life free and easy, right?!? Well I used to think that, but I am slowly beginnfng to re-evaluate my views.

You would think that in Peru, NE., the crime rate would be nothing to worry about right? Well if that's the only you have, you might want to reconsider. Just recently, a small lash of stolen items left three people without a valuable amount of merchandise. One victim had some equipment stolen from a car with an almost break-proof lock system, yet the thieves managed to get in. There have been numerous other incidents this year. One night while filling my car with

gas, I heard three people (who shall remain nameless) try to conceal something that they didn't want anyone else to know about, especially the law enforcement agency. Now trying to act like I wasn't listening, I over heard most of what was going on. I began to realize that you have to look out for your own best interest.

I find myself always taking my car keys, locking my room and car door, never carrying a large sum of money, or leaving things lie where people could snatch them.

I can relate to the victims of this last week or two, because I too was the victim last year

when a new pair of $45 gym shoes were removed locked locker.

I don't know how bad this ·:·.problem is at other campuses our size, but the image of Peru being a beautiful campus with friendly people will begin to degrade if this sort of thing continues.

So what can be done you say?

Well for starters, be cautious at all times, even if there isn't a threalaround. Make sure that if someone wants to steal something valuable of yours, you are as prepared as possible. There'.s no place for crime or vandalism and your awareness might help to prevent it.

did not sign a contract telling us that the cafeterias will be closed on the holidays. It seems to me that this college is way off the course of being organized.

I would like to also mention that the library is. open on the holiday weekend, but the cafeteria isn't. What are we going to eat, books? The cafeteria workers might think we should but I don't think that's very appetizing.

This is the second offense about the cafeteria to my knowledge. I have always been told that the third time's a

charm. I would like to mention -one more thing. They say we can't use a,ny hot plates, toasters, or toaster ovens, how are we going to survive the weekends and holidays at Peru State College. Do we rcib a bank to get the money& or do we starve?

Signed yours turly, Kelly J. Clemmons, Delzell Hall No. 106. P .S. Attention Mr. Mark -Larsen,

I don't know if you ever had to be in this type of situation, but just picture yourself in our shoes. Just what would you do?

Bobcats Ear·n First Win

The PSC Bobcats chalked up victory number one of the 1982 football season with a 21-14 win over the Westmar Eagles last Saturday at the Oak Bowl.

The 'Cats used a balanced attack in defeating the Eagles, gaining 188 yards on the ground and another 129 yards through the air.

The Bobcats took the opening kickoff and drive downfield to their first touchdown of the ballgame. PSC appeared to be stopped by Westmar midway through the drive, but a 21-yard run by Neil Wolfe off of a fake punt kept the drive alive.

Quarterback Mark Sievers scored from the one minutes later to give the 'Cats a 7-0 lead with 8:13 left to play in the opening quarter.

Sievers scored again in the second quarter on another one-yard dive with 4:20 left. Sievers fumbled the ball and Flanker Willie Mingo came up with it, but the officials ruled · that Sievers had crossed the goal line before the fumble occurred.

Westmar pulled to within seven points with only :29 seconds left in the half as a

tipped pass from Sievers was picked off by Warren McGee and returned 47 yards for the score.

Just as they did the first half, the Bobcats scored the first time they had the ball in the second half as well. The drive was capped at 10:16 of the third quarter when Willie Mingo caught a 16-yard pass from Sievers.

But the Eagles were not done yet. On their second possession following the touchdown, the · Eagles drove down the field using a variety of short passes by quarterback Dave Traetow.

The drive was capped on the very first play of the final period when Traetow found Kal Goodchild for a 34-yard scoring play. Goodchild had a busy day for the Eagles as he also started at cornerback on defense as well as alternating at a receiver position on offense.

The Eagles threatened several more times throughout the fourth quarter, but a fired up Bobcat defense turned Westmar -away each time with no damage done.

On the ground, the Bobcats were led by Dave Pasley, who

Lady Cats Prepare for District 11 Tour.nam.ent

The PSC Volleyball team enters district tournament play today and tomorrow with a regular season record of 16 wins, 24 losses, and two ties. At one time the Lady 'Cats were 12cl0-1 but have suffered through rough going, having lost 14 out of their last 19 games.

Statistically, of the three schools who sent in district stats, Glevon Covault leads District 11 in serving with a .978 per cent serving efficiency, successful on 225 of 230 serves. Missy Trujillo ranks third at .974, completing 187 of 192 serves.

Robin Smith leads the district in ace serves with 55, Carla Frauen is second with 53, and

Rhonda Buethe ranks fifth with 29.

Carla Frauen ranks in four catagories this second in aces, fourth in blocks with 44, fourth in assists with 282, and sixth in serve receptions with a .867 per cent. Tammy Lutzi is fourth in receptions with 122 of 137 for .891 per cent.

Barb Peterson ranks third in kill efficiency with 111 of 203 for .366 per cent. Robin Smith is third in the distriet in digs with 292 or 2.7 per game and Glevon Covault is sixth at 1.7 digs per game.

The volleyball team competed in the conference tourney slated for Tuesday at Kearney.

PSC Roundball Outlook

Coach John Gibbs isn't saying a whole lot on how his 1982-83 basketball team might do, but Peru's second year coach knows that a lot of potential and some high expectancies are being labeled on this year's squad.

After guiding the Bobcats to a 12-15 recordlast year, Gibbs has eight returning letter-winners, led by senior tri-captain Everett Smith. The 6-3 swingman Jed the team in scoring, averaging 14.3 ppg and 5.9 rebounds, while gaining second team District 11 honors. Also returning in the backcourt will be David Miller, a 5-10 senior point guard who averaged 3.9 ppg.

The front line boasts the return of Kip Allison and Morris Liesemeyer. Allison, a 6-9 senior, averaged 7.0 ppg but led the team in rebounding averaging 6.1 rebounds. Liesemeyer, a 6-5 junior, will join Allison in strengthening the Bobcats front line. Liesemeyer finished third in scoring in 81-82 at 10.0 ppg and third in rebounds at 5.1 per game. Vying for the other starting spots will be: Brian Strother, a 6-3 junior, Thom Johnson, a 6-3 senior who started 27 games his sophomore year,

gained 115 yards on 30 carries, becoming only the second 'Cat runner to go over the 100 yard mark in a game. Bo Lock gained 154 yards against Concordia earlier this year.

Defensively, the 'Cats were lead by Anthony Roberts who recorded three sacks on the afternoon, raising his 11-leading total to 11. J6hnny Register and Doug Minchow were the leading tacklers as the Bobcats turned in one of their best defensive performances of the year.

The win ended six weeks of frustration for the Bobcats and Coach Jerry Joy called "long overdue and much deserved."

Peru will try to make it two in a row tomorrow afternoon as they travel to Huron, South Dakota, to take on the Huron Tribe. With· the loss, Westmar dropped to 0-8-1.

6-6 sophomore John Lepper, a part-time starter last year, and Brett Nanninga, a 6-4 senior who shot 58 per cent from the field last season.

With the loss of senior Jeff Smith at guard, and forward Keith McKim, Gibbs will look to junior-college transfer Mike Miller, a smooth 6-1 junior guard who will try to fill the shoes of Smith. Other players returning include: Pat Harrison, a 6-0 junior guard, and 5-9 sophomore guard Brian Roach.

Freshmen who may see some playing time this year are: James Collins, Keith Drew, Luke Washington and Jeff Singletary.

"Like a student preparing for exams, we cannot predict our performance since we are not sure what the instructor will put on the test. Returning players is our strength and overall height is our weakness," Gibbs said.

In scrimmage games so far, Peru has defeated Fairbury Junior College and Tarkio College and lost to Missouri Western. The Bobcats open at the Central Methodist Classic scheduled for Nov. 12-13.

Lady Cats Ready.for BB Season

Kathy O'Connor, second-year coach of the women's basketball team, said Peru could have one of its best teams ever. She says that the win-loss record is difficult to anticipate because they start with two of the toughest teams in the conference -Midland and Doane.

Coach O'Connor said "The advantages of having a committed group, a combination of key recruitments, and more experienced players should lead the Lady Bobcats on the road to success." -

Eight letterwinners return from last year, which should strengthen the team. Lorrie Curnes, a 5-9 center-forward, is a senior returnee. Curnes, a three-year letterwinner, finished third in scoring last year and second in rebounding. · Another senior is one-year Jetterwinner Alice Anderson, who is starting her second year of playing eligibility. Last season, Anderson finished second in scoring and first in rebounding.

, Two-year letterwinners on the team are: 5-9 junior, Stephanie Ahern and 5-7 junior Carla Frauen. Other · letterwinners include!"> 5-7 sophomore, Linda Shepard; 5-10 sophomore, Barb Peterson; 5-5 sophomore, Georgean Schimke; 5-10 sophomore, Jackie Schultz.

Colleeri Chapman, a 5-8 junior and 6-0 sophomore Rhonda Kunecke are junior college transfers. A newcomer is 5-7 sophomore Wendy Shuey, in her first year of competition.

Freshman newcomers are:

Lori Butler, 6-0; Regeana Watkins 5-9; Michelle Workman, 5-4; Barb Mitchell, 5-7; Linda

.Dunn, 5-6; Jan Tolson, 5-8; Kristi Niday, 5-7.

In 1981-82, Linda Shepard leads the team in total points with 336 and Alice Anderson was second. Shepard also- had the highest scoring average with 15.3 followed by Anderson and Barb Pederson. Anderspn was first in rebounds

with 189, followed by Curnes with 124. Anderson also led the rebounding average with 9.0 followed by Peterson. Georgeari Schimke led the team in assists with 52, followed by Carla Frauen and Shepard.

O'Connor said she was pleased to have seven key players back this year. She said she was worried about Stephanie Ahern because of last year's knee surgery, but she added that she came back strong and is probably the best game situation passer on the team. O'Connor also said she will be glad to have the strong defensive play of Georgean Shimke and Barb Peterson. O'Connor said, "I'm impressed with the outside shot in combination with strong inside moves of Colleen Chapman."

David Pasley (42) follows Kevin Hixson (37) after taking the handoff from QB Mark Sievers (9) in Peru's 21-14 win over Westmar.

Coach O'Connor said a Blue-White game will be held on Nov. 13. The Lady Bobcats' home opener is November 22 agamst Tarkio.

"As we prepare in freedom and relative prosperity for the most joyous season of the year, the Polish people brace themselves for yet another winter of painful privations-their 44th," Kosik said.

On campus to visit Bob Baker, director of Continuing education, and Dr. John Hahn, professor of political science, Kosik said that it seems that World War II has never ended for the Polish people and that the fierce enemy is still at large in this ravaged land plundering, willfully mis-

Food Service Rebuttal

To the Editor:

It has come to my attention that there is some confusion concerning the cafeteria's schedule. The opening and closing of the cafeteria is based upon a contract which stipulates the number of meals available during the fall and spring semesters. This contract is based upon the school's calendar and is designed to provide service when school is in session. It would hardly be fair to the vast majority of Peru State students to charge them for food service during these breaks; so, we don't. For those students who are here during those closed periods, we keep the Bob Inn open on a cash basis. The snack bar's hours during these times are set based upon previous years' data. The cafeteria's opening and closing schedule for this school year is posted at the main entrance and has been there from the beginning of the fall term.

Now, as for the sample plates thatwesetoutatmeal times. We do them as a service to our cafeteria diners. They help speed up the line by eliminating some questions and also by giving those in line a chance to make up their minds before they get to the serving counter. If it's the majority concensus that we discontinue the sample plates, that's OK with food service. I'm suspending their use until I hear from the rest of· you. We'll be

taking an opinion poll on this matter, and the voice of the majority will decide the fate of the sample plate:

Before I go on to upcoming dates and events, let me do a recap. 1) No one paid for contract service on those break ·days, so that's why there wasn't any. 2) The Bob Inn was open, but on a cash. basis. 3) If you want to see sample plates, let us know.

Now, here's the upcoming events.

November 16: Super Salad Bar.

November 23: Thanksgiving Buffet.

Noveµiber 24 :. Cafeteria closes after lunch is served.

November Cafeteria opens af7:15 a.m.

December 2: Window decorating contest between groups.

December 7: French Cuisine Night.

December 9: Caroling contest between groups.

December 12, 13, 14: Study Snacks 8:30 p.m.-9:00 p.m.

December 14: Christmas Buffet.

December 16: Cafeteria closes after lunch is served.

I would like to close by saying that if you have questions, suggestions, or comments, please let me know. Just drop by or flag me down. I'm interested in what you have-.to say.

Sincerely, Mark B. Larson, Food Service Director.

Editorially Speaking

Recentiy Peru had the opportunity to hook up to cable TV through the Midlands Cable Systems, which is due to be hooked within this semester. Cable is one thing that students here. as well as citizens, have said to be a necessity. After all Auburn has had it for quite some tirne.

What surprised me the most was the number of people wnv decided to hook-up. Although I don't know any exact figures, the man I talked to at city hall told me the turnout wasn't overpowering, to say the least. I thought that entertainment was something that students wanted, and cable seemed to be one possible answer. So far I've heard complaints that HBO wasn't part of the deal, and the price for the movie channt:l was too high.

Letter to the Editor

In addition to Mr. Larson's comments, the following points also need to be discussed:

First, students. should be aware that their contract does state that the cafeteria is closed during the vacation periods. The board contract states that the student agrees to the termw:and conditions of the board plan as specified in the housing handbook. On page 9 of the housing handbook, there is reference to the cafeteria being closed during vacations. the fact. that the contract states the closing of the cafeteria during vacations, the Office of Residence Life also sent out an important message to all students residing on campus that explained that the cafeteria would be closed over fall break. The notice also pointed out that the students could eat in the Bob Inn during the break, but they would need to pay for their meals on a cash basis.

Perhaps this is a good time to remind students that they are responsible for what is stated in their .housing handqook. If students have not read their housing handbooks, perhaps this is a good opportunity to review the rules arrd regulations that are stipulated in the handbook and are a part of the housing and board contracts.

Sincerely, Patricia G. Conway, Director of Residence Life.

In reference to the letter to the editor November 5, 1982, I would like to make an apology to Mr. Mark Larsen, the director of the cafeteria. I talked with him a couple of days after the paper was published. I am told that the cafeteria is only open qpder a

contract basis. If the cafeteria is open,any other time then people who would like to eat should pay more money at the semester. If you have any questions see Mr. Larsen!

Sincerely yours, Kelly Clemons.

Day Care Center Opens

With the work ·of many persons, a day care·center has been established at PSC. It is a non-profit organization funded by the United Ministries to Higher Education, local organizations and individuals.

Barb Shupe, vice-president of the day care center, the purpose of the center is to provide a place of care for the children of PSC non-traditional students and employees, while at the same time preparing children for kindergarten.

Shupe commented that the ·prices vary for the center. The regular Ghild price is $1 an hour, the regular baby price is $1.25 an hour, the price for children not enrolled is $1.25 an hour, and the price for infants not enrolled is $1.50 an hour. Funds go towards snacks for the children, rent for

the mini gym, employees' payment and other expenses. The staff members are Lila Land-Fike, president; Barb Shupe, vice-president; Ruth Henderson, treasurer; and Sharon Roe, secretary.

All the needs of the center have not been fulfilled. A few of them are shelving, wooden puzzles, newspaper, and fireproof carpeting. Contact Barb 'Shupe at 872-7635 if you can lend a helping hand.

Shupe expressed that the center provides the children with four meals a day: breakfast, mid-day snack, lunch, and afternoon snack. The hours of the center are Monday through Friday, 7:30 a.m. until 5:30 p.m., but the center can open as early as 6:30 a.m. and close as late as 6:00 p.m. if necessary.

Anyone making the excuse that they don't have the money is lying to themselves. I see people wasting money on Pac-Man and alcohol when a few dollars a week could provide entertainment that could be watched 24 hours a dav. Besides, it is a lot cheaper td watch movies in a comfortable chair than having to · spend $3 in a theatre. Now I realize that the bars and arcades have to make a living, but cable is a worthwhile investment in the long run. It will be a positive change from the programming that the major networks find entertaining.

In closing, if the people of this campus want to see changes or improvements, then they are going to have to start taking part in things to see a change.

HPER Construction Finished

The construction taking place on the entry of the HPER is to keep the snow and ice from falling in front of the door.

Bill Reeves, who is the Superintendent of buildings and grounds, said that the construction, which started approximately three weeks ago, will be finished soon. The project costs around one thousand dollars.

Grants Revised

Congress overrode the Presidents veto of a Supplemental appropriations bill which added $140 million to the 1982-83 Pell Grant Program on Sept. 10. As a result of the override, some students will receive increases in their 1982-83 Pell Grant awards.

The Financial Aid Office has just received a revised Pell Grant repayment schedule which reflects the changes in Pell Grant Awards.

The construction included some new roofing in which tin sheets were to keep the snow and ice from falling and blocking the doors and from ruining the cement·below, which also had to be replaced.

Reeves said that there used to be open beams where the tin sheets are now, which allowed the snow and ice to fall directly

As a result of these changes, several Financial Aid packages must be revised to reflect the increased Pell Grant award. Students whose grant amount has been increased due to this appropriation, will receive the additional Pell grant amount as a part of their spring semester grant. Students who are entitle.a to an increased Pell Grant fur the fall semester and are not enrolled for the spring semesler will receive an additional Pell Grant check in early February of 1983.

Joy • IS

By Jim Zipursky

Jerry Joy, Peru State athletic director and head football coach, has been appointed as Peru's new Dean of Student Affairs, according to Dr. Jerry Gallentine, Peru State president.

Joy, who came to Peru in 1975, said "I'm sorry to get out of coaching; I know I'll really miss it. However. I can't pass up such a good career opportunity." Joy is also an instructor in physical education.

Joy replaces Dr. Myron Apilado who left Peru in September for a similar job at St. Martin's College in Lacey, Wash. Joy takes over the position effective Jan. 1.

The Shubert native guided the Bobcats to a 40-36-2 record in his eight years as head coach. The team's 9-l record in 1980 is the fourth best single-season record in Peru history; the nine wins that season are the second highest single-season total in Bobcat history.

Joy turned a foundering program into the 20th winningest NAIA Division II team for the years 1977-81. Joy's teams compiled a 32-15-2 record over that five year span.

Joy's 40 wins at Peru is the third highest total among all Peru head coaches; his 52.6 winning percentage at Peru is the fifth best in Bobcat history.

Joy's 1980 and 1981 squads were rated 10th and 20th, respectively, in the NAIA Division II final ratings. His 1980 team barely missed getting into the National Championship play-offs; they missed a perfect record by one point, losing their only game to arch-rival Chadron, 22-21, on a last second touchdown pass.

There have been four different All-Americans in football at Peru State, and Joy has coached three of them. Roosevelt Brown was a first team All-American in 1980, Garland Shafer was named to the second team in 1981, and

Frat Reaches Goals

Phi Beta Lambda, PSC's business fraternity, has surpassed all expectations of this years' officers and sponsors. A 72 per cent increase in membership and greater club participation are two reasons for the optimism.

Appointed to Post

Club membership went from 36 last year to 64 this .year. This increase has provided for participation in club events unequaled in previous years.

Jim Heineman, Vice President of the club, said, "This years group has a positive overall attitude toward club participation, they can really be proud of themselves."

The sponsors for this year's club are Russ Beldin, Jack Hamilton, and Bob Lewellen. Each has expressed his credence in the club.

"Being an active club on campus is a goal which is high on our list," said Gordon Ehrlich, secretary of the frat. PBL has sponsored a school dance, a pizza party for new members and held a turkey raffle in connection with Thanksgiving. ·

The club is striving for more. They will have their annual auction, spring trip, and will attend the state business contest during the second semester. "There are also more plans for school dances and activities " Ehrlich added. '

PSC Artists Show Work

Three artists from PSC had works on exhibit at the Schoolhouse Gallery in Brownville Dec. 4 and 5. Dana Stratton, Paul Fell and Dr. Leland Sherwood were among Midlands artists that were featured in the Old Fashioned Christmas celebration.

Jerry Joy becomes the new Dean of Student Affairs on January l after eight years as Peru State's football coach and athletic director.

Alvin Holder was a first team All-American in both 1980 and 1981.

Joy was named the Omaha "World-Herald" State College Coach ofthe Year following the 1980 season.

As athletic director, Joy oversaw the building of Peru's new HPER Center facility and theuMajors Hall redevelopment project. The HPER Center and the newly renovated Major's Hall athletic and conference center give Peru what might be the finest athletic facilities among the four state colleges. Joy came to Peru from

Friends University in Wichita, Kans., where he was the head football coach and athletic director. Joy compiled a 33-19-2 record while at Friends and led the Falcons to a 9-1 record and the conference championship his final year there.

Joy was the defensive coordinator, )lead baseball coach, and assistant coach at Doane from 1964 to 1968. With Joy in charge of the defense, the Tigers went 7-0-1, 8-0-1, and 10-0-0 his last three years on the Crete campus. Doane's overall record in football from 1964-68 was 31-11-3.

Joy's first head coaching job· was at Alvo-Eagle High in Eagle, Ne. In addition to his duties as head coach in football, Joy was also Eagle's head baseball coach. Joy served at Alvo-Eagle for one season, 1963-64. His football team finished with an, 8-1-1 record.

Joy received his undergraduate degree in physical education and social sciences from Peru State in 1964. He earned a master's degree in physical education from Northwest Missouri State in 1968. Joy continues to work towards a doctorate in physical education.

PSC Staff Helps Find Financial Aid

Faculty and staff from PSC were in Omaha Saturday, Dec. 4, at the New Tower Inn, and will be in Lincoln tomorrow, at the Villager Inn, to help prospective students learn the approximate amounts of aid and eligibility for financial aid through the service of an on-the-spot computer.

On Saturday Don Miller, and his staff from. the financial aids office will calculate the Pell Grant student aid indexes and all Federal Aid if the parents' estimated 1982 Federal Income Tax Return is available.

"This will take the guess work

out of parents' and students' calculations if they are questioning their financial aid eligibility and amount," Miller said. He said the financial aid computer, M-Data System, is the answer to the problem of the long waiting period that college-shopping students exper.ience in waiting for decisions on financial aid.

Other exhibits that will be at the special day in Omaha and Lincoln include a micro-computer that the business division will be operating and a blue print-making-machine from the applied arts division. Award-

winning, nationally known cartoonist Paul Fell, art professor at PSC, will also be present to greet students.

PSC staff will be available to discuss residence housing and student activities in addition to financial aid and representatives from the divisions of applied arts, business, education, humanities, natural sciences, physical education and continuing education will be on hand to explain special courses of study to prospective college students.

Ken Steidle, director of admissions, who has arranged this special PSC open house for three years, said that a new computer science major is offered at PSC that many high school students are investigating. "These open houses in Omaha and Lincoln give students an opportunity to explore their futures and I think that this is an excellent method for high school juniors and seniors to become better acquainted with Peru State College programs," Steidle said.

Stratton, director of printing services; Fell, assistant professor of art; and Sherwood, professor of art and chairman of the humanities division, are well-known in the area for their scenes of Nebraska, according to Jeanette Hansen, vice president of the Brownville Fine Arts Association.

Fell has caricatures on display and is available for drawing personalized caricatures, according to Hansen.

The Schoolhouse Gallery,. open for the first Christmas display this year, is part of the annual Christmas tour of homes co-sponsored by the Brownville Historical Society. Outfitters' Row will be open in addition to the tour and the Schoolhouse Gallery.

Other artists on display besides the PSC artists included:

Tom Bartek, Omaha, serigraphs and paintings; Dorothy Broady, Rock Port, Mo., photographs; James M. Brown, Lincoln, pottery; Jean Engelbrecht, Syracuse, paintings; Alice Gutierrez, Omaha, oils and acrylics; Robert Hanna, Lincoln, water colors and sketches;

Art Henry, Beaver Lake, paintings; Jeri Kuser, Auburn, porcelain dolls; Tom Palmerton, Brownville, paintings and sculpture; Christopher Shaffer, Falls City, silver; Leslie and Claudette Ste·:ens, Falls City, paintings; James Earl Steinke, ··Blair, wooden toys; Therry Thacker, Auburn, pottery; and Mary B. Zicafoose, Mead, weaving.

and For the Record

Fall Semester • 1n Review

By Don Strecker

Now that the semester is to a close, I think this is a good. time to recap the of this term.

· The year started out with several new faces in the PSC faculty and staff. The most imp()rtant new person :was PSC's new president Dr. Jerry Gallentine.

Dr. Gallentine came to us from Labette Community College in Parsons, Kansas, where he had ·been th.e college president for the past three years. While he was there, enrollment increased by 72 per cent.

This statistic shows what kind of leadership skills Dr. Gallentine has, and he has done a great job in·his firs,t year at Peru.

Another new person who has done a fine job is Jim Zipursky, the Sports Information Director. Zipursky came to .Peru from a big-time college program, the University of California-Berkeley and has introduced some very good ideas during his stay. The:Sports Information Depart-

ment has become well organized under his leadership.

Although not a new person to PSC, Peggy Gibb's, the student programs coordinator, has done a fine job in her new position. The wife of, head basketball Coach John Gibbs, Peggy has accomplished many things.

Mrs. Gibbs has organized many dances and other activities. She has planned and organized the Christmas Formal which will be held in Nebraska City this evening. She has also planned the trip to Kansas City for the PSC-UMKC and KingsKnicks basketball doubleheader.

There are many other people who have contributed to a successflll first semester. They include Chuck Reed, Assistant Admissions Director; Mark Rankin, Industrial Arts; Dr. Wayne Dividson, Physical Education; Nick Petrillo, Physical Education; David Evans, Music; and Sue Stevens, Business. If I forgot anyone, I apologize. It was qone unintentionally.

Thanksgiving Celebrated·•

There were many activities which took place during the year. The main activity, as it is on most campuses, is to follow the ups and downs of the football team. For Peru students and fans, 1982 brought mostly downs. The Bobcats finished the season with a 1-8 record for the year, but showed a huge amount of promise for the future.

The 1983 team will look different in coaching philosophy from the '82 team with the of Jerry Joy for the Dean of Student Affairs position. So, the big question at the moment is who the new coach and athletic director will be. The answer is yet to be found.

There were many other activities and events throughout the semester, including Homecoming, Beat-the-Jinx Week, and others.

If's been a good year for everyone (well, alniost everyone). So, as we prepare for our last week of school this semester, I would like to wish everyone good :luck on their finals and to have a Christmas. ·· ·

Editorially Speaking

Well, the time has finally come, one that I thought might never get here. My reign as managing editor bas come to an end; this being my last issue, although I will serve a:s associate editor next semester. I would like to take this opportunity to review what has transpired since my dictatorship began.

Th.e first thing that we needed to learn was how to do a layout. I had no real idea of how to do one, so Mike Northrup who was. the previous editor, gave the Ped staff a few quicky lessons. The first layout was a little messy and required some erasing. A lot of questions were left unanswered that first night, so we did the next. best thing, guess! !

Copy was no real problem, until we had stories that weren't

handed in on time, or not handed in at all. Sometimes that was all right because not every assignment was ultra-important, but we didn't bother telling the reporters that.

Then there was the all-night affairs, which left our eyeballs looking like ping-pong balls. Usually a case of Pepsi or a bottle of no-doze was needed to help us stay awake.

Then ·there was in-put from outside sources. We encourage ideas from everyone, letters to-the-editor, or just information. To all of you who helped, we (the Ped staff) would like to say thank-you, and I hope you will help to contribute to your paper again next semester.

Last, there were those people who think they know au about journalism, or think they can do my job. These people were never

quote "pleased" with the result. I have some simple advice to them : Stick to something you know about, and let me worry about mine. It is those people who are afraid to say anything; but first to complain. It's hard to satisfy everyone and there is a wide variety of groups· to serve, so I hope we didn't overlook anyone.

()veran, I was pleased with our. end result. Having been· given this burden without any experience, I knew it would be a challenge. I think it turned out to be a successful semester, and a very memorable experience. I hope we provided a good service to the campus and will continue to next semester. Believe me, being an editor is no easy task, andifyou don't think so, find out how many people inquire to become one.

Thanksgiving was celebrated at Peru State College beginning with a Thanksgiving buffet in the Student Center dining hall and followed by a Thanksgiving service in the Fine Arts Building, sponsored by Peru Kiwanis and Circle K, Tuesday evening. · Speaker at the 7:30 p.m., service was Dr. Jerry Gallentine, president of Peru State College. The Council of Delzell Hall hosted a Turkey Trot Tuesday evening in Delzell with music provided by,Mac's Music.

Chuck :Chase';·<"DelzeH Hall resident assistant, junior, Thurman, Ia., and Terry Matzen, sophomore, Ft. Calhoun, hosted a Thanksgiving dinner also

sponsored by the Delzell H Council, with the assistance Chuck's mother, Mrs. Ing Chase of Thurman, Ia., w cooked the noon dinner. Th dinner includes a 22-lb.-turkey., and three pies donated by Peggy. Gibbs, Student Programs tor.

"We feel it would be unfortunate if people didn't have others to celebrate Thanksgiving with," Chase said.

Peru residents who would have spent the day by themselves. were invited to celebrate Thanksgiving with Delzell residents who lived too far from home to leave for the holiday and foreign students.

Smoker Held at Nebr. City

Nebraska City Jaycees sponsored their own version of "Saturday Night Boxing," a smoker at the Nebraska City High School, November 20.

There were nine fights, consisting of three, two minute rounds. The high .light came when PSC's. Rick Johnson, freshman, Lebanon, scored the only knockout of the.night as he put down Rich Hellerich of

Nebraska City, in the first round. PSC's Kris Nickolaison, freshman, Fremont, battled it out against Jody Hermann of Nebraska City. Hermann was declared the winner by judges decision.

The bouts were fought to help raise money for Mitch Miller, a Nebraska City resident who was injtired in a swimmjng accident.·

PSC Budget l

By Lisa Cline

PSC will have to take a 2 per cent cut, approximately $58,200, in its current operationa.l budget. The cut will be taken from funds remaining in the fiscal year budget of July 1, 1982. to June 30, 1983, that are not already tied up by legal means.

Dr, Jerry Gallentine, president, said the majority of f.be reduction will be in physical plant operations; maintenance,, custodial, and utilities. 'I'hi:s is possible due to a computeriad environmental control system m use on campus, and operations will be closed down for 12 days over Christmas. The remainder of the cut will come from supplies, equipment, and the

Financial Survey ·T,aken

By Wendy Meyer

The Economic Impact Survey being taken on campus, thru Dr. Jerry Gallentine, is to find out the financial impact that all PSC members have on the cities of Peru, Auburn, Nebraska' City, and all of South Eastern Nebraska.

It asks such things such as how much you spend on gas, the care of your car, housing bills and all other financial aspects of your life. Dr. Gallentine said the survey was being taken not only by students, but ·by the staff, faculty, and administrative personnel also.

Dr. Gallentine stated that the· survey is being conducted by the Bureau of Business Research out of Lincoln, Nebraska. The director of the survey is Dan Pursell who is well known for doing good surveys. Dr. Gallentine said this is why he was chos.en for the job.

Dr. Gallentine said that the purpose of the. survey is to be able to come up with reliable statistics to show the effects that PSC members have. on other cities such as the income they receive from people spending money on food; gas, bills, items from the stores, etc. Therefore, when the cities ai::e asked to help· contribute to Peru funds for things like new equipment and scholarshiPS, they can be sho\vn reliable statistics of how PSC is helping them. ·

Pr. Gallentine said that this · would help students by riot· having to raise fuition and other expenses .l>aY for these thing$; · If these .c1tiei; ·see how we are helping them, then they will be: more willing to help us. ·

Dr. Galleritine'also stated;tfult he is hopin3 fof tlte resultS survey to be finished before Christmas vacati,on.

Credits May Be Given

'J'.he team comprising Baker, Stanley Mccaslin, director of data processing and Lyle McKercher, associate professor .of maths, made a favorable re<!ommendation to the Academic Affairs Commission after visiting the Center and finding its facilities, curriculum, instructors and instructions comparable to Peru State standards.

"The arrangement will likely benefit extension studentS in and around Lincoln and also serve, to some extent, as publicity for Peru State College," Baker said.

students now arebarely:!l}ive for 8 a.m. classes. Football was even off-liri'lits, anci considered a rowdy, offerisiYe ·sport. Players had ·to sneak .off campus and play on farm land south of the

college. ·

Despite these restrictions, there were several advantages of the time:. free tuition, forty minute class.es; no classes after 1 p.m ., and. $2 - $5 dorm rent .per term. ·

The building also stood through hard times and tragedy. The Missouri River flood of 1942 (origin of Peru's "Old' M:an River Days") threatened to wash away the town. In.1950, a psychology professor murdered the college's president and the head of the Education Depart- · ment, then committed suicide.

er of the first award and a scholarship for a tuition was Syracuse High

School. Second award trophy went to Johnson-Brock High School. Syracuse had competed against Auburn in the semi finals and Johnson-Brock had met against Nemaha Valley High School.

About 72 people from 12 schools, counselors, and alternates came to the Campus of a Thousand Oaks to compete which included four-member teams who all received personal participation certificates, Divney said. "It was a fun day," she

said, "and that's what we wanted."

Schools that were represented included: Dawson-Verdon, Falls City, Humboldt, Johnson-Brock, Nemaha Valley, Pawnee City, Sacred Heart of Falls City, Syracuse, Table Rock, Tecumseh, Sterling and Auburn.

"Everything went very smo· othly," the coordinator said, "and we are all looking forward to having the second annual College Bowl next year." (CNS).

An infirmary and nurse's were established in the upper floor of the building in 1921, and remained there for sixty years until it was moved to .Majors Hall. Originally, the .nurse's quarters and infirmary.were set up in a cottage off campus, charging a health fee of so cents per student. Starting in 1947, the Well Child Conference occupied the lower level of the building. This clinic now meets in Majors Hall. The building was last used for storage. ·

Dr. Harold Deselms, vicepresident, said the building was destroyed because it wasn't functional, wasn't needed, and was structurally unsound. He said the north wall was buckling, and the west side was braced up. The site is going to be landscaped, and no new structure is going to be. built.

Mrs. Virginia Miller, PSC nurse, was the1ast person to live .in the building. Her family moved into the upper floor's apartment in ·· 1969, and lived there until January of this year when their apartment in Majors Hall was completed. She described the old infirmary in the building as dark and dreary. She said there was mold on the walls, and the bathroom doors didn't ·shut. Despite its short,: comings, she said she felt a little sentimental when she and her family moved out of the building.

"I think my time could have been better." Cheryl said, "But I'm just happy I had a chance to run in this year's championship."

Nancy voiced the same opinion, "Of course, I think I could have run faster," she said, "however, I'm · not displeased with my performance. Besides, I have three more years to run."

The Lady 'Cats took the opening basket and never looked

back, breaking to a 43-31 halftime lead on the strength of Shepard's 22 first half points, using a good fast break and strong board play.

Sophomore forward Barb Peterson and center Alice Andersen, led the rebounding and added 11 and 10 points respectively. "Barb and Alice did a good job of rebounding and leading the fast break," O'Connor said. The second half saw the Lady Bobcats maintain a comfortable lead throughout, aided by the Wildcats' 29 turnovers. The Bobcats were really never seriously threatened, finishing with a final score, 74-61. The win upped Peru's record to 2-5. Their next game will be at home vs Kearney Dec. 13 in the HPER.

Garman, who -came to Peru in September, 1980, plans morecommunity outreach which will include teacher-training and working with the public schools in the area in prevention methods.

"Specifically, the goal is to train teachers in prevention

activities, alternative activities to the use of drug and alcohol, and also to teach wise decision-making," she said. "We're discouraging abuse."

"We will also be looking for outside funding for activities as the state is encouraging volunteer efforts and volunteer funding," she said. "We're looking for assistance from parent groups. Parents who are interested in starting prevention groups should call Garman's office at 402-872-3815, ext. 297.

She said that state resources are available for parents who wish to start groups for prevention-oriented activities and cited PRIDE in Omaha as such a group. Prevention activities work," she said, "Nebraska is far ahead of other Midwestern states in prevention, but it may take time lo see the results."

Author Speaks at PSC

Over 200 people-students, faculty, staff and area residents -heard Marion Marsh Brown, Omaha, give her recipe for writing a book when 'she appeared in the Fine Arts Auditorium at Peru State College. -

Introduced by Dr. Russell Stratton, associate professor of English, Mrs. Brown said that first, a writer must start with the main character of the book. She told about using her father, who worked- at the Brownville "Advertiser" at the age of 14, for "Stuart's Landing."

· · She described the writing process using her latest published book, "Homeward the Arrow's Flight," the true story of Susan an Omaha Indian who became the first Native American woman to· receive an M.D.

She stressed the importance of taking careful notes and checking information. Mrs. Brown, who writes for "young readers from 9 to 90" had her first writing published when she was 10 and began writing for Sunday school papers, "Jack and Jill" and "Highlights" magazines.

"I have never had a literary agent," she said, "But prefer to contact publishers myself. That ,way, I need not share royalties with the agent." She explained the query letter for publishers and her workshop at her home that finds her writing five or six hours a day.

For ·the Reco·rd

By Don Strecker

On behalf of the entire staff of the "Pedagcigian," I would like to welcome all of you back to Peru State College for the Spring Semester. I know it doesn't feel ' like spring right now, but you can't have everything.

I would also like to welcome· all of the students who are coming here this semester for the first time. We hope you like it here at the Campus of a Thousand Oaks.

I experienced something that, as an avid sports fan, I will never forget. I got to keep stats · for a basketball game at a professional arena, Kemper Arena in Kansas City.

Peru State's stat crew, which I am a member of, drove down to K.C. in yours truly's car accompanied by the school photographer and two of the Bobcat cheerleaders, which made the two-and-a-half hour trip to Kansas .City halfway bearable. ·

Snow, mud, and other paraphanalia covered the road for most of the way to K.C. Once we were on the interstate, however, the roads were fairly clear. ·

When we got to Kemper Arena, which is located in the stockyards of the city can believe that, we ,went inside through the· press entrance.

After receiving our passes, we went .straight to the arena floor. When we;got to the floor, it was a moment I'll never 'forget. A professional basketball court surrounded by 18,000 seats! A huge scoreboard hUllg over the floor almost staring me right in. the face.

Peru State was warming up at one end of the court while UMKC war.med up at the other end. The baskets looked like they ·were. only eight feet off the ground. They gave us three places to sit along the scorers table. These places were right a mid-eourt, giving us a perfect view of both ends of the court.

Tbe game itself did not go well at all in .the first half. The Bobca,ts fell behind early and before the first half was over, were behind by as many as 24 points. In the second half, the Bobcats hung in there and battled back to. within fl points with 3 minutes left.to play. But they were forced to foul to get the ball back and could get no closer than the final 11 points margin. ·

just added that special touch that makes coi.ning to lunch a worthwhile expfil'ience.

Ladies, you have been our sun'Ogate mothers while away from home here at Peru State COilege and we want to say thanks and we love y.ou for adding a touch of home to ipeal time. · Gordon D. Ehrlich and Brad ·.

After Peru's game was history, we went to the upper ·level to watch the Kings-Knicks game. The first half was rather boring, mainly because there was very little scoring (very little, thatis by NBA standards) as the Knicks led at the half, 40-37.

But the second half was very exciting, especially the fourth quarter. The Kings forged ahead in the second half and with some clutch shooting, won it 91-88.

The Kings game was only part of. the fun of being in Kemper Arena on that night. Also present was the popular sports comedian, The Chicken. I had seen the .Chicken many times on TV, but never in person. That was· something I'll never forget, ........

PSC's Plainsongs Published

The winter edition of "Plainsongs," edited by Dr. Russell Stratton, associate professor of English at PSC with printing and graphics by Dana Stratton of the PSC printing services, was sent out this week. This second publication in its third year, is an outgrowth of the Nebraska Writers Project Stratton said that non-rhyming poetry is_ due April 25 for the Spring edition.

Stratton will attend the 34th Annual Convention of the Conference on College Composi" tion and Communication March 16 through 19 in DetroJt, Mich. It is part of his work with Ute Communications Skills Center grant at PSC which is a program of remedial and supplementary work in both reading and writing. This work. is federally funded through the Title III

program for the next three years.

In the November issue of "Arizona English Bulletin" his work ''The Confessional Mode: a Proposition" examines the state of English instruction nationally on the high school arid college levels based upon his 20 years of experience as .a teacher and professor. The article concludes by proposing that all teachers need .to. write and read more than they d6;.

Stratton is working on a suggested restructtiring of the Nebraska English turriculum.

heiSaid.,, , ,( '

"Too many of us simply go from day to day, teaching what we like best, what seems to succeed; but the time has come for coordinating our discipline, and I hope that once agairi Nebraska can lead the way."

· The most recent "Nebraska English Counselor" (Winter, 1982) carried two of Stratton's p<iems, "Master Class" and "Vide9#Games." He is revising a ·longer poem, ''California Scenes," based upon a visit to Los Angeles over. Christmas. During this trip, the Strattons attended the 97th annual convention of the Modern J:...anguage Association which was held at the Biltmore, Bonaventure and Hilton Hotels. About 7,000 teachers of language and literature were present for more than 70 separate sessions.

Adcox is a very goal oriented person, and tie says that his new position will help him branch out, to become more aggressive.

"Recruiting will be my major priority and you have to be aggressive, to be able to conyillce young athletes. You

have to be able to sell yourself and your program. That Will be one of my goals,''. he said. "It takes a very special athlete to be at Peru, one who is very dedicated," he added.

Adcox finished college at Missouri Western State where he received a bachelor of science degree in education in 1975. He finished his graduate study at Northwest Missouri State· University in 1976 with a master's degree in physical education.

PSC Hal I o·ccupancy Up

Residence hall occupancy at Peru State College increased 10 per cent in the spring semester, 1983, over spring semester, 1982, according to Patti Conway, director of residence life-counselor at Peru State College.

In figures released by her office this .past week, Conway said that there were 331 students residing in residence halls in spring, '82, compared with 365 in spring, 1983.

Conway cited the housing options students may choose from at the Campus of a Thousand Oaks. "You try to provide a diversity of life styles for all students," she said, "single students, married students with a spouse that works, commuting students, the 139 students, or 38 per cent, that want to live alone are several of the classifications that oncampus housing accommodc;1c tes."

The different living arrange-

ments provided at Peru State College for students, staff and faculty include: Morgan Hall, a women's hall; Delzell, men's hall; Clayl:mrn-Mathews and Davidson-Palmer that provide students with suites that include a living room with adjoining bedrooms and private baths in contrast to individual rooms in other halls that have communal bathrooms; Pate, staff and faculty; Nicholas and Oak Hill, married students, or students with children; and faculty apartments, faculty and staff residents. Also housed at Morgan: Hall are two commuting women students with pre-school children who return to their homes on weekends. While here, the women attend classes and' the children are cared for in the Peru State College Day Care Center.

Conway .pointed out that students also have rooms and apartments in Peru homes and

many commute from the surrounding area. "My office maintains an informal listing of apartments available in Peru, but we. don't monitor the occupancy and keep data on anything but campus-owned housing," she said.

The Majors Hall Conference Center also houses groups that meet on campus. During the school year several groups convene in the conference center for overnight accommodations. However, the center houses the most guests during June and July, Conway said.

Conway came to Peru State in September, 1981, after complet-' ing a master of science degree at Morningside College where she double-majored in psychology and philosophy-religion. She has several years' experience as residence hall director, freshmen orientation director, resident assistant inservice training director, and counseling.

Co.11,ege Enrollmen·t lncrease·s

Dr. Jerry Gallentine, president of PSC has announced that there has been a 9.5 per c1;mt increase in enrollment at the Campus of a Thousand Oaks. Gallentine compared the enrollment for spring, 1982, with spring, 1983, and said that in '82 there were 579 students enrolled on the campus at Peru State College; spring semester, '83, enrollment is 634. ··

"This is unusual for college enrollment as it is not abnormal for enrollment to decline from spring to fall with attrition, drop

outs and scholastic probation," he said. "We're turning that around and I predict that enrollmevt will steadily increase at Peru State College."

He said that when the total figures are tabulated for spring off-campus courses, total enrollment will approach 1,000 for spring, $83 The total enrollment, including off-campus classes, spring '82,' was 814 students. "There are several classes that will begin mid-February and March," he said.

Stargell, a veteran of 19 seasons as a major league player, was named the Most Valuable Player of the 1979 World Series in guiding the Pirates to the World Championship. ,Stargell received the SPORTING NEWS Man of the Year Award, and was co-recipient of the SPORTS ILLUSTRATED Man of the Year Award along with Pittsburgh Steeler Terry Bradshaw.

Stargell holds the major league record for most strike-

outs in a career and had over 2,000 hits in his 19 seasons. He also owns the National League record of 90 extra-base hits in one season and four extra-base hits in one game.

Stargell will be speaking on the role of team sports in college today.

Peggy Gibbs, student programs coordinator, said that the public is invited to this free event on the Peru campus.

"Students • and staff are looking forward to seeing this all-time great super star," Gibbs said. "We invite area students and residents to join us to hear this exciting speaker."

There were 113 new students this semester compared to 50 new students last year at this time. There was a 2 _per cent increase in spring enrollment over fall enrollment.

"We'.re making long-range plans and would like to have 1,500 Peru State students in five years," Gallentine said. "With everyone working togetherfaculty, staff, students, alumni and friends of Peru State College-we'll reach that goal."

Students rely on their dorm director for many things: homework, someone to complain to, praise to, or just talk. to.

.Letter to -the Editor

Dear Editor: I would liketo.bring attention to students or residents of Peru who signed up -for cable television. We signed up back in November of 1982 for cable with the promise that we would receive the service · by the beginning of December or at the latest the end of the semester. Well Christmas has come and gone and we still don't. have any cable. What's the hold up?

I put a ten dollar down payment on the first month and we don't even have a hook-up. I personally wanted it bec;mse of the great sports coverage that cable provides, but by the time

we get it, if we in fact do, most of the programming I wanted to see will already be over. I personally can't see how people can sit around and let their money be ripped off. If I were given the chance to sign up again, I would tell the Midlands Cable System to sit on it. Anyone who can't back up what they claim shouldn't be in business! ! So citizens of Peru, let's get together. Either we get what we were promised, or get our money back and· find a more reliable source! The time to act is now. It's really hard to say at this point, but it looks like we've been had! Name withheld.

Collins' avian research was designed to study hawks and owls, or raptors, in Nemaha County. The article that Co1.lil.I$ submitted was a winter roadside survey of hawks in Nemaha.

About 25 young redtail hawk ch_ icks were banded _to provide data for Collins' research. This involved climbing into nests that were from 28 to 72 feet high, or an average of 47 feet off the ground.

Survey Economic Impact

Direct and indirect··spending from faculty, staff, and students at PSC has been estimated to be $4.2 million according to an economic impact survey'done by the Bureau of Business Research at the College of Business Administration at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.

The area credit base was expanded $737,000 in 1982 as a result of deposits in local finaricial institutions by PSC faculty, staff and students.

In order to obtain a sample for this economic impact survey, q!-lestionnaires were. distributed directly to students m preselected classes by faculty and administration. Questionnaires were mailed to the faculty and staff and they mailed them to the Bureau of .Business Research.

Charles L. Bare and Ronald E. Pursell analyzed the data and prepared the nearly 50-page report from the 11-part questionnaire.

The Campus of a Thousand Oaks employs 127 full-time faculty and staff and about 140 students and has an enrollment of over 900 students. PSC is a major employer in Nemaha County, employing 5.8 per cent of persons employed in the

county which totaled 2,971 in September, 1982, according to the Nebraska Department of Labor "Work Force Trends."

Not only PSC employees and students have. an economic impact on Southeast Nebraska, however. The report !!&id that employees entertained an average of 21.57 visitors per year for college-associated events with visitors spending $9.17 a day on the average stay of two days with direct expenditures estimated at $43,515. Students indicated they averaged 14 visitors each year for 1.11 days with daily expenditures of $7.82 and student visitor expenditures amounted to $26,613. When allowances were made for indirect spending -effects, the total expenditure impact of college event visitors was $76,151.

An estimated 90 per cent, or more, of retail sales in the community of Peru are by faculty, staff, or students from PSC. They spent $1,361,976 in 1982 in Peru, according to the survey, which amounted to a total impact of $2,383,461.

The largest expenditure of employees and students is for housing with students payi.ng

more for housing than faculty and staff in Peru, Auburn, and Nebraska City. Students spent $236,808; employees $173,472 in Peru for housing; students, $68,461; staff, $57,278, on housing in Auburn; and students, $29,904; staff., $22,031, in Nebraska City in 1982.

· Student purchases of food and beverages a.re greater than those· of faculty and staff in the community of Peru. Students spent $208,674 and faculty and staff spent $129,632 in Peru .for ·food al}d 1982.

In ·1982, total deposits in financial institutions in Peru, Nebraska City, and Auburn were: $737,153 which made $715,038 available to area residents for loans.

Peru. State College has been the hub in Southeast Nebraska of post sec()ndary education for the past 115 years. The college also serves as a cultural, resource institution and conference center for many groups. This economic· impact study proves that the impact of PSC extends far beyond the primary functions of teaching, research and outreach. PSC was a generator of over $4 million in Southeast · Nebraska in 1982.

Deadline for Scholarships Set

Applications for the 1984-85 Rotary Foundation Scholarships must be submitted by Mareh 1, · acct>rding to Donald Miller, Director of Financial Aid.

The Rotary Foundation of Rotary International offers scholarships annually for outstanding students wishing to study overseas. Scholarships are

awarded in five categories: graduate, undergraduate, vocational, teachers-of-the-handicapped, and Journalism.

The primary purpose of these scholarships is to contribute to international Understanding thrriugh study abroad and not necessarily to earn a degree, Mr. MiUer said.

Nearby HS Students

At.tend "MINK'' Day

Students from nearby high schools in Missouri, Iowa, Nebraska, and Kansas attended MINK Day, which was held at Wheeler Inn in Auburn last Saturday. The purpose of MINK Day was to give prospective college students a chance to see what PSC has to offer for them.

"This open house, or college fair, will give prospective college students and their parents an opportunityto talk to faculty and staff about courses of study and requirements, housing, college activities, sports and financial aid," Jerry Joy, Dean of Student Affairs said.

Joy said that Peru State College Days are held annually in Omaha and Lincoln for students to ·become acquainted with Peru State College and

MINK Day will give Southeastern Nebraska, Missouri, Iowa and Kansas high school students chance to look us over."

Financial Aids Director Don Miller and his staff were on hand to determine the approximate financial aid package that will be available to students who are considering PSC.

Dr. Jerry Gallentine, president of Peru State College, has set a goal of an enrollment of 1,500 students in five years. "This special high school invitation is just one way that will help us to achieve this goal,'' Gallentine said. "When students and their 1>al'ents realize the financial and educational bargain that is available to.them in their immediate area, I hope they will consider attending. Peru State College."

Actor Dennis Weaver to Star in Drug Film

Dennis Weaver, who stars in "Cocaine: One Man's Seduction," which airs on NBC-TV, Sunday, Feb. 27, 9P.M., believes that people' in the public eye, particularly those in the communications industry, have a responsibility. to inform the public on important social issues.

As an actor, he welcomes roles that deal with social pr()blems. He has starred in 'Intimate Strangers," a TV movie about wife beating. He played an alcoholic in "Don't Go To Sleep" and he appeared. with Valerie Harper in "The Day The Loving Stopped," which explored the problems of divorce and broken families.

"Films like that should be made and should be part of the television fare," he says. "I'm particularly pleased with 'Cocaine: One Mail's Seduction' because I have been involved quite closely with a couple of drug rehabilitation facilities. One, in particular, called Cry ···Help, was started by ex-users who wanted to help people who were still in trouble. It involves the same kind of treatment offered by alcoholics anonymous. It's called N .A., or narcotics anonymous. There is a definite program of rehabilitation to prepare people for a usefulness in society." Weaver believes his new film

is especially important at .this time because cocaine is becoming the All-American drug. "It is common knowledge that, today, coke is the drug of choice for millions of solid, middle class people," he says. "There is even a feeling that it is not addictive. It is an insidious kind of drug, because, at first, it gives users a euphoric lift and a felling of confidence. In the end, it brings on depression, edginess and weight loss. Finally, it destroys you. It pulls the rug out from you, completely."

In "Cocaine: One Man's Seduction," we see how a successfulreal estate salesman, played by Weaver, is seduced into trying coke when business turns sour. One "toot" leads to another. As his usage of the drug increases, it brings on paranoia, hallucinations, damage to his nasal membranes and, finally, total physical collapse.

There is some hope that films like this wiU stop the .cocaine blizzard that now blows through middle class America and Weaver believes it his responsibility to alert people to the dangers he knows exist should they succumb to this white powder nightmare

Spice Black History Week

Two prominent individuals spoke at PSC as part of Black History Week which was held during the week of February 14 through 19.

Former Pittsburgh , Pirate great Willie Stargell appeared at the HPER Center on Feb. 15 where he spoke about the role of team sports in college today.

Stargell told the students to always remember what the main objective of college is. "Don't ever forget what the purpose of going to college is, to get an education," Stargell said.

Stargell also told the students 'to take advantage of opportuni-

ties when they come along. "I've seen too many times when a fot · of beautiful talent...was wasted because they only got one opportunity and didn't take advan'tage of it," he said.

Following his talk during which he answered questions from the · audience, Stargell signed autographs and spoke with the students.

Colleges Are Perfecting Money H.unt

by David Gaede (CPS>

-

The campus of Park Co1lege in rural Missouri to cover over 800 acres of rich limestone deposits. Soon, officials plan to mine and sell the limestone, and then lease out the excavated caverns as underground warehouse and office space.

The scheme may sound odd or even far-fetched, but administrators at Park don't have much choice. They say it's the best way they have to make up for federal and state funding cuts the school has suffered over the last few years.

Colleges everywhere are resorting to schemes and somewhat-eccentric strategies in this, the third year of a prolonged depression in college revenues. · Georgetown, for example, is going into the energy business. Brown has jumped into the mail-order business, peddling gifts ranging from $10 to $10,000 in a special "pull-out gift catalogue" alumni newsletter section that might make Romeo proud.

To some, particularly in the Reagan administraiton, all this is· great news.

"Colleges are coming up with all kinds of ways to replace money they have lost· from funding decreases," exults U.S. Dept. of Education spokesman Duncan Helmrich. ·

Such creativity · in getting money is "proving that a lot can be done, as President Reagan said, when you put your mind to ·it," he asserts.

·The president, -of course, has argued that colleges have been too dependent on federal support, and. that once cut off, they'd find some new ways to support themselves.

"I don't share the view of some that the cuts being made in higher education · will bring about disaster," agrees David McKinney, finanCial affairs vice president at the University of Idaho.

"We've got to get the federal deficit down, ·and we've all got to tighten our belts a little. A lot of people in higher education are blowing smoke," he adds, "but there's Still no fire."

But few of McKinney's colleagues seem to agree. "The big question is whether we are dealing with a short-term or long-term problem," notes James Mingle- of the Southern Regional Education Board and author of several books on colleges' retrenchment.

"Colleges and universities have had a long period of financial sources not keeping up with inflation anc:l expenses," he says. "In a lot of institutions, there's no fat to trim. It was gone long before the current Reagan-induced recession." SchooJs can and are selling off land, building windmills, holding

Wash. OK's Sign Lingo

The University of Washington has become the first school in the country to allow students to use American Sign Language to meet foreign language admissions requirements.

Washington had previously refused to consider Ameslan, as the sign language is often.called, because it wasn't a "natural language," according to Michael Magie of UW's · admissions office.

But the university changed its mind on February 1st, Magie reports, and determined Ameslan evolved out of a culture of its own.

Magie estimates there are "maybe a dozen or so deaf students on campus," whose foreign language requirements had previously been handled on "a case-by-case basis."

He points out the new policy also applies to "students who want to be interpreters for the deaf and hearing-impaired."' Students can also use Ameslan to meet new foreign language requirements, which will go into effect in 1985 or 1986.

telethons and escalating appeals for contributions from businesses to raise money, but they can't keep doing that forever, Mipgle says.

"There is a limit to how many different, long-lasting _ways a _school can come up with extra income," he concludes.

"The competjtion for the corporate dollar is getting stiff," agrees Bob Graze of the Independent College Funds of America. "The expectations of what the private sector can do are too overrated."

"Overall, private giving cannot take the place of federal and state funding," concurs a .· spokesman for the Council for Financial Aid to Education.

Although private giving to colleges has increased 20 per cent over the last several years, more schools may be getting less individually. "The entrance of public schools into the arena (since the federal funding cuts began in 1981) has made it very, very competitive/' he says. The scrambling for money, moreover, has helped some colleges recoup budget cuts, but hasn't allowed them to move forward.

By making faculty an.d staffers accept salary freezes and mounting an aggressive fundraising campaign, Springfield College in Massachusetts has managed to scrounge enough financial aid money to bring aid availability to its

before the Reagan cuts.

"All our efforts are to offset losses," says-Joseph McAleer, Springfield's. public relations officer. "Obviously we won't have the resources to offset the government funding cuts forever. I just hope we don't have to find out when that is."

The losses have indeed been substantial. The American Council on Education figures the · federal student aid budget alone has suffered a real decline of 23 per cent since Reagan took office.

Colleges have suffered even more damaging cutbacks in state funding. Twenty-four states slashed budgets during tile last fiscal year because the recession choked off the tax money it normally collects, according to the National Conf.erence of State Legislatures.

St. Andrews Presbyterian College, for example, leased out .10 acres of land to a shopping center, sold 40 to a hospital, and is readying more land for sale to private residential developers. Stanford, Princeton and the University of Dallas have also. sold land to generate income.

Financia·I Aid Deadline i·s Set

The suggested date for submitting Financial Aid Application materials is April 1, according to Donald Miller Director of Student Financial Aid.

The Office of Student Fina11cial Aid. sent Financial Aid Applications to all currently enrolled students. Miller said that the plan was to have the materials in the students hands before spring break so that the students could obtain the appropriate information while they were home.

Materials which· were provided to the students include the Financial Aid Student Handbook and the Applicati()n for Federal Student Aid.

In the back of the Student · Handbook is a one page application which, among other things. lists the four programs which are ad.Jninistered l>Y PSC. The student should cQmp'lete. this

form, indicating the order in which he-she wishes to be considered for the programs, Miller said.

The Application for Federal Student Aid must be completed and submitted so that the student's eligibility for the Need Based programs can be determined. The Need Based prog·rams include the Pell Grant, the Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, College Work Study, and National Direct Student Loans. Miller said that students who are applying for· scholarships only are not.required to submit the applications for Federal Student Aid. ··

The procedures for submftting the Application for Federal Student Aid are as follows:

First, the student should · complete the application following the directfons. The student should complete both copies of

the form. Secondly, the student should mail one copy to the Pell Grant Processing Center in Los Angeles, California,. as he is instructed to do. This application will be used to determine the student's eligibility for the 1983-84 Pell Grant.

Third, the student should bring the other copy of the application to the Financial Aids Office.

Finally, when the student receives the Student Aid Report they should submit all copies of the report to the Financial Aids Office.

The application for Federal Student Aid replaces the ACT Family" Financial Statement which had been used in the past, said Mr. Miller. "The reason for us changing this procedure is that we can have the Need Analysis determined free of charge," he added. The ACT Family Finailcial Statement requires a $6.50 .processary fee.

Figh' for Higher (?) Fees

In a rather __ bjiarre game •of role reversal; .students at soine colleges are ad!Ja(ly demanding ' fee• · fr.om · reluctant ad.minisffator:s; wbo worry they already ct:m,rge tOO much for an education. •· · · ·.

And although;.nocme knows for sure such paradoxes c.ould become .as students.realize t1'iey may be the , only ones '\villirig Jri bridge the gap in Cun4ing for student services·. ·

At the University of Denver, for instance, student groups have been pressµring adminis" trators and'tbe board of trustees to tack more money ,onto student fees. ··.·

"I think the students are being very Jn looking at · the effects of not raising fees," says DU student President Robert Lazarus.

,

DU students are asking for nearly 10 per cent Increase in their fall fees to help support student organizations, the intramural sports 'programs, and the student health care center.

Inflation and funding cutbacks by the administration, the students say, have caused crippling shortfalls in the funds available for student services and organizations, and raising fees is the only way to make up for the decline.

Until last year, DU didn't even have a student activity fee. At that time, students convinced administrators that student services would crumble ·if tlie $360 a year fee wasn't implemented. Part of the fee also goes to finance a new student center.

Now, because of a significant -and unanticipated-decline in the number of entering freshmen, students want to raise fees

by 9.5 ·per cent, Lazarus says.

.With 200 fewer entering freshmen this year than projected, he adds, student groups have already had h> cope with funding shortfalls in mid· academic year. and tt,ey.-don't want the same thing to next fall.

But administrators and trusteesaren't budging.

"In a price"Sensitive market that all of higher education finds itself in today, we need to· do everything we can to keep costs and fees says DU Associate Vice Chancellor for Financial Affairs Will Gordon. DU raised tuition by 19 per cent last year, and by another nine per cent for this year. Coupled with the new activity fee, Gordon says, officials believe the cost of attending DU is already dangerously close to pricing it out of the _market for many students.

"(The requested fee increase) might not sound like much," he explains, "but nowadays any increase is viewed very closely by the students. We really do feel tbe competition."

Even the decline in freshman enrollment, DU officials fear, may have been the result of high fees and tuition. Raising fees even more, Gordon says, would probably ·result in more lost income.

"That's an unrealistic attitude," according to Lazarus.

"Campus polls have shown that over 60 per cent of the students favor an increase in the fee, and all the presidents of student organizations are behind it."

DU students aren't alone in ' their willingness to reach into their own hip pockets to keep student services afloat.

The student Senate at William Rainey Harper College in Illinois

has just proposed an increase in student fees.

And in,Kansas, the Fort Hays St.ate University student government is also prosposirig a new student activity fee.

"Most of our students think it's a pretty equitable deal," says Harper Senate President John Weirich.

Besides the fee increase, the Senate also wants to base fees on the tot.al cost of tuition, says.

"That way we're not always running to get more money," he explains. "We know they'll only increase tuition if there's a reason for it, and tying the student fee to that will insure that student servi-ces remain adequately funded."

! But Harper students, too, expect opposition from the administration because of concerns over competitive pricing.

"That certainly is a switch," says Bill McNamara, communications director of the National Association of Independent Colleges and Universities.

Typically, he notes, administrators q.re the ones trying to convince students that a fee increase is necessary.

"Who is the administration to argue with (the students) anyway?" asks a spokesman for the American Student Association. ''If, in their own judgement, the students feel a fee increase is necessary, I think that shows we have some very responsible students who are concerned with the quality of education."

Administrators, the spokesman says, "seem more concerneq with quantity than quality," if the only thing they worry about is how many students might be priced out of school by "necessary" fee increases.

Delta Sigma.Phi members on carh.pus.

Memorial Service Held

A special memorial service was held for Dr. Norman Schlesser, who died suddenly on 21 at his home in Peru.

The special service began with piano music provided by Dr. Thomas Ediger, associate professor of music.

Following the music, Father Clifford Ott, pastor of St. Mary's Episcopal Church in Nebraska City, gave some opening comments, gave the opening prayer, and read two scripture passages.

Following the passages and the Psalms that were in unison after each, Dr. Don · Jacobs, president of the Faculty Senate, and Coach Maxine Mehus gave their own thoughts and feelings about Dr. Schlesser.

Survivors include his mother, Mrs. Clara Schlesser, Beaverton, Ore., a half sister, a half

brother, .and nieces and nephews, also of Oregon. Schiess.er came to PSC in January, 1982, to teach history.

' The work · of senior Art Education major Leon Morin has been displayed as a senior art exhibit in the Diddel Court of the Jindra Fine Arts Building until yesterday.

Morin, son of Mr. and Mrs. Bob Morin, Amsterdam, N.Y., has been at Peru State College for two years and will graduate May 15, 1983 after practice teaching for eight weeks at the Amsterdam Middle School beginning March 7.

The art ekhibit included:

A calendar centered by a lonely light house, with two motor boats racing toward it, an evening ph(!tograph of Manhattan and a Newport acrylic, the favorite of thef artist, were pleasant East Coast transplants.

Morin attended the Junior College of Albany for two years before coming to Peru State College. An art teacher of

Morin's at Wilbur Lynch Middle SChool, Amsterdam, N.Y., Bill Bouton, PSC, Class of 1965, had told him about Peru, Morin said, and Morin decided to come to Peru because of the reasonable cost. ·

"I wouldn't have been able to finish my education otherwise," he said.

Variety to Spice "Festival 83"

Eighteen nights of nostalgic films, sports, documentaries, mystery and music will demonstrate how exciting and valuable public television can be during FESTIVAL '83-March 3-20over all stations of the statewideNebraska Educational Television Network.

Sponsored by Nebraskans for Public Television, Inc. FESTIVAL '83 is the ninth annual spring program festival held for the purpose of increasing viewer ·awareness of Nebraska public television and encouraging membership in the NPTV citizen support organization.

Nebraska ETV Network Gen· eral Manager Jack G. McBride explains that this special spring festival gives the Network an opportunity to say thank you to all the members of the strong and actively growing NPTV citizen support organization, and to ask members for increased ,gupport for some very important reasons.

"There is no easy way for the Nebraska ETV Network to counter the one-two punch of inflation and federal cutbacks," McBride said. "In the coming fiscal year, the Nebraska ETV Network will face a $182,000 lOss in the federal funds that regularly have come to use from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting."

"This makes it even more necessary to seek additional sources of income from the private sector to provide the quality programming viewers expect to see on their Nebraska ETV Network," McBride continued.

"During FESTIVAL '83, we not only will be encouraging NPTV members to help us find new viewer-supporters for Nebraska public television-we will be urging · Urem to renew or increase their own memberships it; It will make the differ.em1e ill helping to keep all the good public television programs coming in 1983-84," McBride concluded.

Good Luck Black Lead'ers Attack New NCAA R·ute

Black college presidents' opposition to National Collegiate Athletic Association's new, tougher academic standards for athletes may soon broaden into a general attack on standardized tests, black leaders at a special meeting at Southern University last month warned.

"We have not fought hard enough against standardized tests," Southern President Jesse Stone told the press after the meeting. "This thing opens up a real Pandora's box."

Standardized tests like the - Scholastic Aptitude Test and the ACT (American College Testing exam) can't predict. accurately

how the student. is going to do in college, Stone added.

Stone led the opposition at the NCAA's convention in early January to new rules that will require athletes to maintain a-2.0 grade point average in a variety of science and language courses, and to have at least a 700 on their SATs or a 15 on their ACTs in order to be eligible to compe.te in intercollegiate sports.

At the convention, Stone.called the new rules "patent racism" because they' would have the effect of barring many blacks from intercollegiate sports. To press his charge, Stone called the meeting of 20 black

movement leaders last .week. But the leaders decided to go after standardized testing itself rather than the NCAA, at least for the moment.

In a statement released just after the_ meeting, Educational Testing Service President Gregory Anrig agreed standardized tests shouldn't be used to determine academic eligibility.

"The proposed use of a fixed cutoff score on nationally standardized admissions tests will have effects that may not have been fully realized before this decision was reached," he wrote.

In using the tests as factors in

admissions, different schools use different cutoffs.

In an attachment, Anrig noted that 56 per cent of all the blacks who took the SAT in 1981 scored under 700. The average black student combined score was 707.

Anrlg agreed the "issue ·cuts across racial lines" because white students' average score in 1981 was 927.

Critics have long criticised the SATs for being culturally-biased in favor of white students. Stone says his group will first try to mobilize the black community to help him publicize those biases.

He later worked with an engineering censulting firm in Salina. Kan.. where he prepared documentation for Federalloans to communities with the Environmental Protection Agency. In January. 1975. he received a

Captain's commission in the U.S. Army and served as a Fort Riley, Kan., counsel before courts-martial until J977. ·

From 1977 to 1979 Billups was an attorney-advisor with the U.S. Air Force at Robins Air Force Base. Ga. He was legal advisor in labor-management re la lions and negotia lions and when disciplinary action against federal employees was proposed.

Dr. Searle S. Davis is teaching history classes at PSC. He attended the University, of. Nebraska-Lincoln from 1964 to '66 where he was a member of the Nebraska team in the Big-8 Quiz Bowl.

"Chemagic'' is Popular Program for Professor

When Dr. Pippert, chairman and professor of the division of natural science at. PSC presented his science program, "Chemagic," Tuesday, March 15. for the Peru Kiwanis club, he had performed it !)early a dozen - times. ·

And he has nearly a dozen requests in the near future to do this chemistry-oriented display of experiments.

Schools in Auburn, Plattsm0uth, Tecumseh, Table Rock, Conestoga, and Farragut; Iowa and a group of science teachers from Southeast Nebraska has been recent audiences for this colorful presentation.

"I try ·to do two things in the program," Pippert said. "First, illustrate ways we know that chemical reactions have taken place such as when light and heat are given off; or gases are being evolved, or there is a color change; and second, I try to illustrate the practical uses of chemistry.

He said that "Chemagic" not only enhances his.. lectures in

chemistry as a professor, but that it has been a useful program for students and teachers in the area.

"One of the bigger goals of 'Chemagic' is to stimulate students' to study science and to go into a science career later," he said. "I have yet to give the program to a group that did not enjoy 'Chemagic."'

All age groups, from small children to adults, ehjoy the program tha.t lasts ·about 45 minutes and includes 10 experiments. "About 350 people were in one of the larger audiences. when I appeared at Southeast Consolidated High School at the Science Fair in February," Pippert said. ·

"Chemistry is interesting and fun," Pippert said. "None of the 'Chemagic' experiments are dangerous even though there are v,ariations and many temperature changes. Each presentation, or experiment, is different and sometimes briligs surprises." ·

The PSC chapter of Phi Beta Lambda, a national business fraternity, has decided on Milwaukee, Wisconsin as the destination of its annual business trip. Russell Beldin, advisor, said the trip was educational in nature, consisting of tours during the day, and there would also be time to socialize. The fraternity will pay hotel and chartered bus expenses for approximately 60 members.

Beldin said one monumental event of the year, "unpresedented on this campus" was an auction of donated merchandise which raised $1700. Earlier in the year the fraternity also sponsored a free pizza party to initiate new members, a Homecoming float, a raffle, and a Christmas party above the Little Acorn Bar.

Phi Beta Lambda is designed to develop leadership, and gives students an opportunity to socialize and learn to work with other people.

Other officers are: Diane Watton, president; Gordon Ehrlich, secretary; Roger Kennell, treasurer; Chris Gerardi, public relations; Jack Hamilton, advisor.

Coovers Are Selected as Finalists

"I never thought ii would happen to us," said Daine Coover. after receiving a Western Union mailgram, telling her and her twin sister, Karen, th.at they were selec.ted as one of the top seven finalists in the 2nd Annual All-American Collegiate Talent Search.

Diane, a junior at PSC, and Karen, a senior, headed for Las Cruces, New Mexico on March 21, to sing two contemporary gospel songs in front of approximately 5,000 people at New Mexico State University.

To get this far in the contest, they had to win regioflals, competing against about 250 contestants, singing gospel,· rock, and country. They placed

among the top three and then submitted a seven minute audio-tape, a glossy black al).d white photo and 25 dollars. There were approximately 1,000 entries over-all for the contest in New Mexico. #

The contest consisted of workshops and rehearsals for the first three days. During this ti:me the contest provided food, hotel accommodations and local transportation. They arrived on March 22 and began rehearsals and workshops, for_ which they _ are receiving one college credit. The final contest is Saturday, the 26th. Some celebrity guests ·include: "Bruno from "Fame," Richard from "Real People," and Esther Williams a sychronzied swimmer. Prizes include an

audition with a gospel music association in· Tn., scholarship school they attend, and '$500 for getting in th'e' top seven finalists.

Diane and Karen are involved in Circle K, r:nusic groups, Residen. · Staff, Peru Players, Engli.Sh Club, Student Senate, and Kap'pa Delta Pi.

One requirement for the contest was to have: a faculty sponsor: Dr. Royal Eckert, Professor of Speech and Drama, is their sponsor.

I feel sorry for the 950 students and faculty members who missed Nancy Hill sing last Friday. She was inspiring and an exceptional singer and guitarist. But the attendance was up to par for PSC. Why support an activity at Peru, whell' there is always the television set, four blank walls to gaze at, and the good ole' bottle of beer to fall back on. The scapegoat of college life.

It is not just students, don't get me wrong. At the first baseball game of the season there were four faculty members to approximately 50 students. Not a

bad ratio, huh. Can remember the last music activity you attended'? Maybe the music isn't very updated or your type, but the music students attend and play at every home football game. They at least support one sport activity. I am not saying don't study and attend every PSC activity, just .try to make an effort. If every student and faculty member would attend one activity a week, some department would have a tremendous turnout. Please let's not everyone get enthused at once, a mere IO per cent would be nice.

Another point I would like to touch on is faculty support of -students. I know of two students who approached the music department to use their sound system for one hour, for an upcoming contest and they were abruptly turned down. TJley were told students could not use the sound system. If students from PSC can't use the system, then who can. As it turned out, the system was set up the next day for a choir clinic. The two students did get .to use' the system under obvious protest. I think there needs to be a re-evaluation of policies.

PSC Classes at FtCHS

This semester Ft. Calhoun High School seniors are offered Engllsh and math classes for college credit from PSC. Credit earned from these classes. · is beyond high school credit and will appear on a PSC transcript that can be transferred to Peru or to another college or university upon graduation.

The Ft. Calhoun-PSC cooperative agreement allows a high school student to work tGwards a college degree before actually being on campus at Peru, according to Dr. Clyde Barrett, vice president for academic affairs at PSC.

Ft. Calhoun High School staff are instructors and use the same co,µrse outline, texts, and grading scale that is used on the Peru campus. The college-level courses are graded on a 9.0 scale and some students earn 15 hours of college creditin high school, the equivalent of one semester. Students in the cooperative program are required to be on the Peru campus three times during the semester according to the agreeement. They pay tuition based on the regular tuition charged, plus a one-time matriculation fee.

Classes offered are English 101, English composition, 3

hours credit; English 202, Appreciation of Literature, 3 hours; math 105, precalculbs mathematcis,5hours; math 106, precalculus math, 5 hours; and math 102, introduction to data processing, three hours.

The pilot of this cooperative program began in Plattsmouth and Auburn in 1974 with about two.· hundred students taking advantage of this service since then, Barrett said. "And practically all of the students go on to higher education, many to Peru State College.

"We feel that this is another service that Peru State College is able to provide the residents of eastern Nebraska."

HS Students Sing at Pe·ru State

The annual High School Massed Choral Clinic was held March 17 with over 350 students from ten area schools attending. The schools were Dawson-Verdon, · Fairbury, Falls City, Lewiston Consolidated, Lincoln Southeast, Nishna Valley (Hastings, Iowa), Palmyra, Plattsmouth, Raymond Central, and Valley.

Dr. Thomas L. Ediger said the day .consisted of morning and

afternoon rehearsals of the i:oncert numbers, and free time for skating, swimming, or attending a movie. The day concluded with a massed choir concert conducted by Dr. Allan Lehi, director of choral activities at Drake University. Six songs were performed: "Sing Alleluia, Sing," Julie Knowles; "God is 11/Iy Sovereign," J. S. Bach; "Ave Maria," Anton Bruckner;

"The Turtle Dove " arr. Margaret Vance; ''Lullaby," Frederick Keel; "I Want Two Wings," E. E. Ferguson. Ediger said the "Ave Maria" selection is difficult to perform with a small choir because it has a seven or eight part arrangement.

"Dr. Lehi thought that it was a very successful day, aQd I agree," Ediger commented.

Peru State to Join-Network

The Campus of a Thousand Oaks will join the Elderhostel network, a network of over 600 colleges, universities, independent schools, folk schools and educational institutions July 17 through 23. This system of summer education where "studying there is half the fun" is active in the U.S., Canada, Bermuda, Mexico, Great Britain, Scandinavia, Holland, France, Germ<tny and Italy. Special low-cost, short-term, residential, academic programs are for older citizens for intellectual stimulation and physicaladventure, according to the 1983 summer catalog. About 55,000 people participa-

ted in the Elderhostel programs in 1982. The summer catalog last year described 1, 192 weeks at 496 different institutions and the 1983 catalog lists 1,635 weeks hosted by 634 institutions.

"Usually programs begin Sunday evening and end Saturday morning and are limited to 35 to 45 students,'' Bob Baker, director of continuing education, said. "The individual ' is important in the Elderhostel program," Baker said, "and this fits in with the educational philosophy of Peru State College."

"Esther is a valuable resource person in the office as she knows many people in the area, relatives of alumni, and alumni of Peru State College," Pat Larsen, director of College Relations and Alumni Activities, said. "In my nearly three years at Peru State College, I have found Peruvians to be especially loyal to their alma mater. Esther will help us keep track .of all of those 7,368 loyal alumni."

Cats Basebal I Preview.'

The Peru State Bobcats .opened their 1983 baseball season at the Auburn Legion Field with a round robin tournament against St. Ambrose and Tarkio College recently.

First-year· head Coach Nick Petrillo, who also serves as a defensive coordinator for the Bobcat football team, has seven returning lettermen from 1982's 9-15 club.

Larry Benton, a senior shortstop from Tampa, Fla,, leads this year's contingent. Benton batted .382 in '82 while earning first team All-District honors. Senior catcher Mike Drotzman, Crofton, will also help to give the Bobcats stability of defense as he returns as the starting catcher. In 1982, Drotzman batted .306 in 72 plate appearances..

Chris Hutt, a senior from Tecumi;;eh, is also back for his final campaign. Hutt, who will return to first base this season, provided much of the power hitting last season. Hutt batted .419, drove in 28 RBI's, and slammed six home runs in 24 games. ·

Infielder Dick Haneline and Jeff Smith will battle for the third base position. Haneline, a sophomore from Omaha, hit .282 at third a year ago, while Smith, a senior from Lincoln, was a .347 hitter at second base last season. Smith may also serve duty in the outfield this year.

The last of the returning lettermen include a pair of outfielders from Oklahoma; Brian Strother, Broken Arrow, and David Miller, Tulsa. Strother was the top hitter last .season at .550 while driving in 14 RBI's. Strother had the longest consecutive hitting streak in the

nation last season when he hit safely 14 times over a span of four games. "Strother slugged in two home runs, one triple, two doubles, and nine singles in that streak. Strother also was safely on base 17 straight times with 14 hits and three walks.

Miller, an outfielder last season, batted .273 in 22 trips to the plate last season. Both Miller and Strother finished play on the 1982-83 Bobcat basketball team.

The top newcomer on the squad is Kevin Sykes, a junior from Granite City, Ill. Sykes, a junior college transfer from Lewis and Clark Community College, was a Southern Illinois Junior College All-Star at second base, and looks to be the starter for next Monday's contest.

The top pitching prospects look to be a pair of freshmen.

Mark Williams, Hastings, and Tony. Foster, Falls City, will share a good portion of the starting rotation this year.

The 'Cats split a pair of games in the round.robin tournament in Auburn Monday, March 14, losing the first game to St. AmbroseCollege7-l, but won the second game over Tarkio 4-3.

Junior Kevin Sykes scored the only run in the first game in the fifth inning as he got aboard with a single and stole second and. third bases. Senior Larry Benton· doubled fo score Sykes for the only Peru run. Peru trailed 3-1 at the bottom of the fifth, but yielded one run in the sixth and three in the seventh as St. Ambrose collected 11 hits in the game.

Mark Williams, Hastings, making his first collegiate start, took the loss, as he pitched four innings, before freshman Tony Foster came in relief.

In the second game, trailing 3-0 going into the bottom of the fourth, Peru's Chris Hutt and

Gibbs Namec1 Top Coach

In pis second season as head coach, Peru State basketball Coach John Gibbs was named the District ·11 "Coach of the Year."

Gibbs has compiled an overall record of 31 wins to 28 defeats, and the first conference title since 1972-73. The Bobcats won 19 games this past season, the most since 1962, posted their first winning season since 1977-78, and only the second in the decade.

Gibbs took over a floundering program that had previous season record of 4-23, and 5-21. The Bobcats have been succesful at home, winning 19 games to only five defeats.

Everett Smith.and Kip Allison, both seniors, were chosen honorable mention all-conference players.

PSC Softball Team Looks to Improve in '83

The Peru State Lady Bobcats. weather permitting, opened their 1983 softball season at Concordia in Seward Thursday afternoon. The Lady 'Cats look to· have the makings of what could be a fine squad.

The Lady 'Cats will be under the guidance of head Coach Maxine Mebus, who begins her fourth year. Mehus has · an overall record of 40-52 in her three seasons, and the Bobcats ended 1982 14-19 overall.

Mehus will have seven returning lettermen back off last year's team, headed by seniors Jackie Halterman a:nd Kim Hill. Halterman, a right fielder from Liberty, was a first team All-District selection a year ago and returns as the top percentage hitter. Halterman was a .345 hitter in '82 and drove in 17 RBI's, hitting 30 singles, 10 doubles, and four triples, all team highs. Hill, an infielder and catcher combination, was a .244 hitter and ranked second on the team in runs (23l and lead the 1 team in walks with 25. Hill split infield time at shortstop and second base.

Mehus will look for play from three top returning juniors, Carla Frauen, Becky Gauchat and Carol Latham. Frauen, an infielder from Lincoln, was a second team all-district selection a year ago on her fine defensive play. Gauchat, a junior from Brock, was also a second team selection from behind the plate, as she was second on the team in put outs with 76. Latham, a native of Columbus, batted .266 in '/9 plate appearances playing outfield and third base.

Returning sophomore letterwinners are Sara Beth Donovan

and Judv Poutre. Donovan. a graduate of Lincoln Northeast. is a good fielding first baseman and will handle most of the duties this vear. Donovan was a .300 hitter 'and led the team in put outs with 79. Poutre. a &raduate of Wymore Southern. is the top returning pitcher from last vear's team. Poutre owned a 3-6 record in ·s2. and pitched a no hitter in a win against Bellevue.

The top newcomer to the team may be Colleen Chapman. a transfer from Mid-Plains Junior College in Grand Island. Chapman was a member of the !982-83 Lady Bobcat Basketball team. Chapman will be one of "the top pitchers this season and will serve as a back-up catcher.

Mehus will have several freshmen on the team. whom she will look for depth and playing time. Lana Last. Shubert. Nancy Glasgow. Clarks. and Michelle Workman. Plattsmouth. will all play in the outfield. Infielders include Tammy Lutzi, Lincoln, second oase. Connie Pulse, Lincoln. short stop-third base, and Kristi Niday, third basepitcher. Mehus will also have the services of Sharri Schreiter, a sophomore from Nebraska City, who will double as a catcherfirst- baseman.

The Lady Bobcats will need to improve on some areas that slowed the success last season. The 'Cats committed 123 errors to 57 of their opponents, and gave up 249 hits. Peru's .271 batting average was 70 points fewer than their opponents, and the Ladys hit only two home runs in 33 games.

If the Bobcats improve on some of these areas, Peru could be a contender in District 11 this season.

Application·s for Fall Increase

Following a national trend that shows more women that men on college campuses across the country, of the 155 accepted applications for fall 1983 admittance to PSC, 87 are women and 68 are men.

According to a Census Bureau report in mid-March, women are expanding their enrollment and the average age of college students is creeping upward. And the report says that this began in 1979. By 1981, there were 108 women in college to every 100 men.

Jerry Joy, dean of student affairs at PSC, said that last

year at this time 81 women's admissions applications had been accepted compared with 36. men's admissions applications.

"Peru State College encourages the non.-traditional (over the age of 23) student to attend," Joy said. "An example of services provided the older student with children is the Day Care Center."

He said that the 155 applications are mostly from within the 100-mile service area.

In a report to the State College Board of Trustees in March, PSC President Jerry Gallentine poin-

Despite Buildup, Campus Research Funding .Flattens

Federal research support for the nation's colleges and universities will "just about keep pace with inflation" next year, despite the Reagan administration's proposed 18 per cent increase in overall research funding, a new study shows.

Most of the 18 per cent increase in federal research money "won't even be seen by colleges and universities," but

will instead go to ·private corporations, says Albert Teich, co-author of the American Association for the Advancement of Science's annual study of research and development funding.

Support for college and university_ research will increase 4.7percent next year, according to the study, amounting to a $236 million increase in real dollars.

But in constant dollars, funding will rise only one-half of one per cent, or by $10 million.

· "A lot of people are talking about the big 18 per cent increase the administration has proposed for overall research funding,'' Teich notes.

"But colleges and universities won't fare nearly as well as the private sector. Most of that money will go to corporations

like the big aerospace firms."

Within the overall $7 billion increase, moreover, funding for defense research will increase by nearly 28 per cent, while basic research funding will get only a 5.5 per cent increase in constant dollars.

Funding for university research through the departments of Agriculture, Commerce,

Interior, Education, and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration will actually decrease, the study points out.

-And the National Institutes of Health, which channel nearly $2.3 billion in research money to colleges, will suffer a nearly two per cent cut in federal support if Congress approves· Reagan's funding requests.

and Letters to the Editor

Mrs. Gibbs

To the Editor: Peggy Gibbs deserves an applause for the great job done this year with student programs. This is only my second year at PSC, but the organization of student programs, if compared to last year, is really amazing.

She has broadened the. students knowledge of day by day activities with monthly calendars and posters. She has brought in good movies, good music, and special talents, like Willie Stargell. The few of us that attended Casino Night really had a great time with super nice prizes.

I respect and praise her works in reaching out to get more students involved. It is sad that more students don't participate in college sponsored activitif..>.

Congratulations Mrs. Gibbs for the fine job done this year. There really are some of us out here that greatly appreciate your hard-work and eagerness to get involved Keep up the great work. Name Withheld.

Editor's Note: This letter was received approximately two weeks ago while the cable was being installed.

To the Editor:·

Perhaps you and the students at Peru State College would like ·an update on cable TV services in your city. By reading your paper, it appears more information is needed. At this date, most of Peru is on cable. It should also be noted at this time that most of our construction problem in Peru derived from getting the necessary clearance from the power company. Furtht1rmore, internal personnel conflicts have been solved. Our marketing representative, who is no longer with us, had made promises which became our problem. No one "has been had!" We have not billed anyone in Peru for services not rendered, and when we do, · everyone will receive a .$10.00 credit for their deposit made. Also, all those who have requested their deposit back have received it.

Mr. Jerry Patterson is your local representative and very competent in handling any situation.

Financial Aid

Dear Students: By now eac)l. of you has probably heard Qn the. evening news and read in your local or university newspaper about President Reagan's proposed changes' to the Federal student financial assistance programs sponsored by the Department of Education. I would like to take this opportunity to explain the budget we have requested.

The chartbelow compares the 1983 student aid budget with our proposed budget for 1984. Because over 1 billion dollars has been saved as a result of declining interest rates, the tota.l

funding proposed for 1984 is level with 1983. The difference in the two budgets is· where we have put the dollars. We are prpposing to consolidate the current six programs into one loan, one worll:-study, and one grant.

over 12 billion dollars to establish revolving loan funds on the campus. The loan fund is for the use of current and future students. Though no new money is requested for- the NDSL program, the revolving funds mean that over $550 million will 1rontinue to. be available ""to students in 1984. The arilount of IT\Oney available in future years depends on students meeting their repayment obligations and

, thereby keeping the revolving funds healthy. If former students, now in default, repay their loans, over $640 million could be added to the revolving funds.

The key principle behind thi&. proposal is that a simplified and consolidated student aid program will benefit both the student and the American taxpayer financing the student aid programs. Simplification will also dramatically reduce the administrative burden which your institutions now face in admiriistering the six Federal aid programs. Reducing this burden will improve your institution's ability to delivery student aid.

We have asked Congress not to provide new funding for the · State Student Incentive Grant Program, the Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant ProgJ'am, and the 1 National Direct Student Loan Program. We've Congress to, increase funding for College Work-Study and Pell Grants.

Under the new budget we expect a · higher loan volume and a higher loan average for the Guaranteed Student Loan Program.

The chart below compares the total amount of aid available to students through the Department of Education under the 1983 and proposed 1984 budgets.

The three remaining programs·: College Work-Study, Pell <Grant) and the Guaranteed Student Loan Program will ensure the type of student financial assistance hoped for, but never realized, under the six program arrangement.

The Guaranteed Student Loan <GSL) ·and Auxiliary Loan <PLUS) programs make low interest loans available to eligible graduate and undergraduate students <GSL) as well as parents <PLUS; by paying lenders inte,rest while the student is in school and by subsidizing interest- while the borrower is paying off the loan. The combined program is the largest of the Federal financial aid programs.

The pudget Which we sent to Congress requests $2.04 billion to cover the costs of the GSL program in 1984. It also includes a rescission of $900 million for 1983 funding. The $2.04 billion /represents a decrease from the 1982 · GSL appropriation of almost one billion dollars.

·The proposed reduction does not represent a reduced commitment to the GSL pr:ogram. On the contrary, because President Reagan's Economic Recovery Program has successfully reduced interest rates, the actual cost of the program is steadily decreasing. Although the program will cost ·one billion dollars less than in 1982, one billion dollars more will be available to student borrowers.

million in funds for the College Work '-8 tudy Program. Increases in CWS support our view that a student and his or her family share the primary responsibility for financing a college education. If adopted by the Congress, President Reagan's increase will create jobs for an additional 345,000 students. The average student's earnings would be $800,00.

The College Work-Study prog• ram is' administered and managed on the college campus. The Federal government contribution to the work-study payroll is 80 per cent. By increasing the CWS program by 60 per cent we hope to reduce the burden many young graduates now face when they have relied too heavily on loans to finance their college costs.

The Senate

In recognizing some outstanding contributions on the part of PSC students we find one which cannot be overlooked. The student run Pedegogian has been an outstanding contribution. To-what do you ask? Well unfortunately we are unable to answer our own question. · Perhaps a better inquiry would be, "What should the Ped have outstandingly contributefl?" Many students have been greatly disappointed in the PED this year and we feel they are quite justified in their view, and we must add that we take the same attitude. The coverage of events on campus has been enemic compared to that of the past year. A majority of things tnat happen, things of much importance come out in our PED more than a week late. OLD NEWS. You see, we know we live in a place where telegraph and would not even be necessary. Word of.· mouth serves us very well here. We Indiana

Jones..l

are· in millions.

·SSIG was established in 1972 in order ··to· provide states an incentive to establish their own grant and scholarship programs. Currently all states have met this challenge and. offer very attracti.ve scholarship and grant programs. Known under a variety of different names, these state programs awarded over· 1 billion dollars last year. Thus,. after n the incentive provided by the SSIG program has successfully generated more dollars than the Federal government could possibly have hoped.

SEOG was designed to supplement the Pell Grant. Administered by the financial aid office on the campus, the program was to provide students with the financial means necessary to have choice in which institution to attend.

The problem with SEOG is that it is not targeted to help those students who really need federal assistance. If our proposed budget is accepted by the Congress, the new Self-help Grant program will provide needy students with the choice previously reserved for the privileged.

Begun in 1958, NDSL is the oldest of the Federal student assistance programs. Over the past 25 years the Federal government has given schols participating in the program

About 2.64 million students and parents received GSL and PLUS loans in 1982. Theaverage loan was $2,222. Under President Reagan's 1984 budget the (average loan is expected to be $2,454. The number of recipients will increase almost 300,000. Improved economic conditions will make .Jet all of this happen with one billion dollars less of the tax money.

In· 1984 we are proposing some changes to the current law governing the GSL program. We estimate that these changes alone will save $126.9 million iri 1984 .and $204.7 million in. 1985. Currently students .who wish to borrow under the GSL program do not have to demonstrate financial need, if their family income is under $30,000. (The requirement that need be demonstrated for students whose family income is over $30,000 was, in fact, implemented only last year.) Our 1984 budget proposes extending the "needs test" to all income levels. Factors such as cost of tultion, expected family contribution, number of children in school, etc.· will continue to figure into the needs formula. This proposed change is consistent with our belief that Federal aid should :be reserved for those students who need the assistance in order to attend college.

President Reagan's budget requests an additional $310

The most sweeping changes President Reagan has proposed are those affecting the · Pell Grant Program. Driving the changes are our interest in assuring equity and ensuring access and choice. The proposal also restores to the student some responsibility for securing college costs.

Unqer the proposed Self-help <Pell) Grant Program, students must meet a minimum expected student contribution before being eligible for a grant. The contribution would be a minimum of 40 per cent of the cost of attendance-with an absolute dollar minimum of $800. A student may meet his expected contribution from a variety of sources, including the Federal loan and work-study programs described above, state grant and 1Continued on Page 3l

Also some of the NEWS is of little importance to PSC students. Dennis Weaver is one great actor and a great humanitarian no doubt, but what does that matter. Contributions of our faculty, staff, and most importantly- our STUDENTS must come first, WE, the senate do not like being preempted by such news as the Dennis Weaver story. It took up half the front page, isn't anyone around here worth a half of page?

We sincerely felt that something should be said about this problem. Even though there are many other gripes that we could air, we will close by simply saying this: Our students, students ii:i all areas, our faculty and our. staff deserve more. Fortunately we feel that next year will be the improvement we've waited for and are looking forward to it. Our money will finally'be used well and for good purposes.

It is important that you, as .students, understand the selfhelp concept. Your student contribution can be met by an almost infinit-e combination of sources, including all of the Federal aid"programs except the Self-help grant itself.

President Reagan's proposal suggests that cost of attendance should figure prominantly in the calculation of a student's Self-help grant. A student attel)ding a community college and living at home obviously has less cost than a student attending a $7,500 institution in a different town or state. -The "cost-sensitivity" of the Sel(, help Grant Program shoufd ensure that needy students have a greater choice in selection of an institution to attend. While the maximum· Pell Grant is $1,800, a student who attends a high cost institution and has a small expected family contribution could receive a $3,000 Self-help

The equity issue is one that has long been wrestled with in the delivery of Federal grant programs. Many students are awarded more money than they actually need while many more do· not enough to meet their coll'ege costs. This situation has in large part because of the complexity of the Pell G.rant Program eligibility criteria. To address this problem, the new Self-help Grant program proposes, for example, re<].ucing from 22 to five the number · of factors used to determine a family's ability to contribute. Changes such as this will go far toward· resl;ablishing the original intent. of the grant program-that- of providing access to higher. education for those who would not be able to attend college with<mt assistance. The new Self-help Grant is. designed to build , on that original purpose by giving needy students choice in addition to : access.

This Administration's strong commitment to education demands that we take steps to improve student aid delivery. By consolidating the .Programs to simplify management and by requiring a student contribution to higher education costs before grant aid is provided, we believe that we can maintain tile integrity of· Federal student assistance programs. Simplifying tbe system and maintaining integrity are the only ways to ensure that the programs will be available to future generations of students.

Knutzen Speaks at Conference

Dr. Owen Knutzen, superintendent of the Omaha Public Schools from 1967 to 1982, told counselors and principals at a Peru State College conference .that leadership is a necessary element in the role that education has in American society today.

"Educators cannot be just managers," Knutzen said. "Managing is a lower skill than what is needed today. The flight from public schools has resulted in a loss of leadership and resources. We must inspire and develop confidence.

"What are schpols really.for?" he asked the southeastern Nebraska educators. He said that schools provide 40 per cent education and 60 per cent "other services" which include sex education, athletic training, bus service, mental health and health service.

He stressed that schools must be a place where teachers can teach. "The decline of the effectiveness of education is the longest obituary in history," he said.

Following the keynote speaker was Frank May, Omaha Westside High school English teacher, who spoke on "Preparation. for Standardized Tests" and explained differences between the ACT tests. May has created a writing assessment program for the Omaha District 66 School District and is active in the Nebraska Writers Project.

' Dr. Russ Lord of Northwest Missouri State University, spoke on test bias Other speakers included Ms. Cheri Clark of the College of St. Mary, Omaha, who discussed fin:;mcial aid and Dr. Jerry Gallentine, president of Peru State College, who addressed the group at a noon luncheon

, in the West Dining Room of the Studeqt Center.

Gallentine told the group of nearly 50 that PSC is rededicated to the concept of· regional service. "Through workshops, seminars, in-plant training and businesses we plan to reach out to educate and serve the people in Southeast Nebraska," he said.

Cagers Sign With Peru _State

Head bas.ketball ,Coach John Gibbs has announced the intent of three players to play basketball at Peru State College for the 1983-84 season.

Greg Thomas, a 6-4 190-pound forward from Iowa Western Junior College of Clarinda, Ia., averaged 11.4 points per game and 8.4 rebounds as Iowa Western posted an impressive 27-2 final overall record. Thomas is an outstanding athlete with a 36 inch vertical leap. "He could be a very vital part of our program next year," says

Gibbs. He is the son of Charlene Thomas.

Todd Abrahamson, a 6-5 senior, was a key cog in Palmer High School winning the 1-A State;Championship in Iowa in 1983. The 205-pound forwardcenter a'veraged 13.4 points per game and 10.4 rebounds, while shooting 61.9 per cent from the field. Abrahamson was a second team River-Valley Conference selection. He is the son of John and Betty Abrahamson.

Milton Bramble, a 5-10 guard from Rock Port, Missouri, will

also wear a Bobcat uniform this fall. Bramble was a 18.2 scorer this past season and averaged 5.7 rebounds. He was a All-275 conference performer this past season, and led the conference in scoring. He is the son of Paul and Elva Bramble.,

"We are pleased to have these young men joining our squad next season." Gibbs said. "We are looking forward to having a fine year of recruiting, and have made good progress by signing these players."

LaWyers: Walker Beat Weak Rule

The pro football leagues' rule keeping college players off their rosters until they use up all their college eligibility-the same rule college football defector Herschel Walker and the New Jersey Generals of the U.S. Football League· broke in early stand up in court anyway, two University of Detroit_ law professors have concluded from eight months of legal into the rule.

The rule "unreasonably restrains trade," contends sports law attorney and,teacher Robert McCormick. · Consequently, he .believes the· rule, if ever challenged in court, couldn't stand up.

McCormick and fellow-lawyer

Matthew McKinnon began researching the question soon after Walker, then just finishing his sophomore year of eligibility at the University of Georgia, threatened to sue the National Football League for forbidding any of its teams from drafting Walker until he used up his four years of eligibility after the 1983 college season.

Walker ultimately decided not to file !!Uit, opting to play another year at Georgia.

But McCormick and McKinnon were intrigued with the issue Walker had raised, and, using Walker as an example, began to research the case law to see if the football and track star had a good case.

They concluded he could have won his lawsuit easily.

Walker's contention that the NFL-and by extension the USFL-violated anti-trust laws by forbiading their teams to draft players still eligible to play college ball was probably correct, the law professors say in an article to be published in a law journal this month.

The main reason the pro leagues haven't lost such a case is that no one has sued them over the rule yet: Players, they say, are re.luctant to spend the year or so on the sidelines it would take while the case was Qeing litigated.

Some published reports say Walker threatened to sue the USFL this year unless it allowed one of its teams to·sign him.

In any event,- Walker did sign with the New Jersey Generals for a reported $4.8 million, although he still had a year of eligibility left at Georgia. ·

Walker's defection enraged many college football officials, who predicted the signing would mean the effective end of the current system.

The NFL also protested the signing, saying it would interfere with athletes' college educations.

McCormick, who teaches sports law at UD's law school, agrees, but believes the NFL has other motives for wanting to preserve the four-year eligibility rule. · The rule gives the NFL a "good, cheap" way to train talent, he says. "Why destroy your farm system?"

But it would be threatened by any reasonable legal challenge anyway, he adds, because the rule seems to contradict anti-trust laws.

To be immune from anti-trust laws, the four-year rule would have to be part of a collective bargaining agreement. But since college players are not NFL employees and are not covered under the NFL's collective bqrgaining agreement, McCormick argues the rule .couldn't pass a court test.

The National Basketball Association lost its four-year rule to a lawsuit by Spencer Haywood, who jumped from the University of Detroit into pro ball when he' won the suit on anti-trust grounds.

McCormick doesn't expect Walker's defection this year will cause any more of a migration of collegians into the pros than Haywood's did.

"It probably won't change things that much," he says. Only about six eligible basketball players a year now try to jump from college to pro teams.

John Gibbs, head basketball coach at PSC, will be camp director for P.SC's annual "Bobcat Basketball Camp" June 6 through· 10.

If you have always wanted to spend a week in New York City touring Broadway plays, now is the time to make plans for May 21 through 27.

For $614, Dr. Charles Harper, associate professor of speech and drama, and the Office of Continuing Education at Peru State College, are offering a tour with hotel rooms based on quadruple occupancy. An hour college credit is possible for students, Harper said.

The group will stay at the Hotel Edison, which is a half block from Time Square. Activities in the package besides hotel and air fare include:

An orientation session, Two-hour seminar by a Broadway, or off-Broadway. professional, Guided tour of the Lincoln

Center for the Performing Arts, Metropolitan Opera tour, Back stage Broadway tour, Half day guided-tour of Greenwich Village, Tour of either a scenic design house, costume design shop, recording studio, or TV production center, and Four performances of a Broadway musical, an off-Broproduction and-or two comedies or dramas.

Harper urged interested persons to submit a $100 deposit as soon as possible. "Due to the fluctuation of air fares, it is important to make reservations quickly in order to keep the price down."

Play to Go on Tour of Area After Performances

Dr. Charles Harper, associate professor of drama and speech at Peru State College, says he hopes to start a tradition when the final curtain of the Peru Players campus production "The Imaginary Invalid," falls.

Moliere's farce will play 21 through the 24th in the College Auditorium, Thursday through Sunday at 8 p.m., with a 2 p.m., Sunday matinee.

Peru State College's theatre group will tour Elk Creek, Johnson-Brock and Murdock area high schools with the assistance of a Nebraska Arts Council grant following the PSC-run. This is the first time a major production has gone on tour, according to HarpeL

"The experience of touring will be invaluable to the cast," Harper said. "The cast will not only have to adjust to different audiences, but also new surroundings and stages."

Designing the scenery and furniture for touring was a new experience, he said, as the scenery has to be light weight, portable and fit into a van. According to Harper, the furniture designed in the Louis XIV style is portable and folds to store easily. The set can be assembled in Jess than 15 minutes.

The $1 tickets to see "The Imaginary Invalid" may be purchased at the door.

<CPS)-The: U.S. Department of Education should be "realistic" by bracing itself for an increasing number of students defaulting on their federal student loan payments this year, says a top official with the American Council on Education.

With this summer's job market likely to be the worst since World War II-campus job placement experts are predicting that even engineers and computer science grads will have a tough time finding work-many grads simply may not have the jobs, and thus the income, to begin repaying their student loans, ACE spokesman Bob Aaron says. ·

The default rate on Guaranteed Student Loans has risen steadily since 1978, from 10.3 per cent to 12.3 per cent, according to the Dept. of Education.

National Direct Student Loans defaults, on the other hand, have been ,edging downward for the last five years, from a high of 17.7 per cent in 1978 to 15.4 per cenHast year.

More aggressive collection efforts by the federal government have helped ease the default rate, experts say.

But as the job market for college grads deteriorates this year, default rates could shoot · up again, Aaron advises.

"Is it realistic to expect a student with $10,000 worth of debt not to default fn today's job .market?" he asks.

"After all, with the kinds of jobs and salaries available, many students will be lucky just to keep their heads above water."

Even searching for a job could

take months, he points out, "and when you're starting a career there , are certain start-up costs-moving expem;es, clothing, and other expemses-that have to come before }'.epayirtg' a loan."

'

But the number of grads. filing for protection under bankf.uptcy laws could increase if the economy doesn't hµpr<Jve, says ACE policy .• analysti:: Elaine El-Kha was. , ·

Right now the number of grads who escape repaying their loans by declaring bankruptcy is around one per cent, El-Khawas says. · ·

"Most of those are genuine hardship cases," she notes.

Some are more desperate than others. ln December, a federal court turned down a: former Wright State University student who wanted to repay the school just one per cent of the amount she still owed on her loan. After 36 months, she would have paid back a total of $14.82.

· The court decided the former -student, who is now· a teacher who co-owns some real estate in Ohio, hadn't shown "good faith" when she proposed repaying so little.

In what is perhaps a more typical case, however, a California federal court recenily relieved a former San Diego State student of her , loan obligation because the woman's nervous disabilities and hearing losses have prevented her from holding a job for long.

Students cart't apply for bankruptcy protection until five or more years after the loan originally became due, Depart-

Letter to the Editor

Dear Editor: I would like to take this opportunity to comment on the letter which was written to you by the' Peru State College Student Senate in your April 15 paper. Being a PSC journalism graduate and editor of · the college newspaper for two semesters, I know how disappointing it is to receive such a letter.

It 1 appears to me that" the senate d0esn't · seem to be thinking completely through qn their criticism of your paper. I would like to address the following points to them, or anyone else involved with. PSC, about the Pedagogian and how it is produced.

Number one: When was the last time they looked at your masthead (the list of reporters, editors and other staff) and counted the number of people you have working under you?

Number two: The letter never actually addressed what they wanted to see done differently. AH they requested was to get the paper back to standards it used to be. If you have. possibly been lax on covering their organization that would have been a good place to include it. The front page of the same edition had senate elections as one of the main stories, I noted.

Number three: They said the news seems outdated by the time they read it. I doubt if they realize the editor must have the paper completely ready for printing (layout, headlines and all), by Monday noon. I am aware of how competantly both Vince and yourself have met your deadlines, but doubt if they are. I feel this responsibility is a big plus to anyone wheh they get into the working world.

Number four: Since budget cuts have affected everyone, including tht; college newspaper, do they realize you are allowed to publish only eight issues per semester. It doesn't take a lot of figuring to discover that with almost 15 school weeks each semester, a paper can be printed only every other week.

Number five: Now I would like to refer to a ·statement which was made about including information that doesn't pertain exclusively to Peru State. I wonder how many of them have expected papers back from friends for the next day's classes only to be disappointed. That might be a good comparison to help demonstrate the complete cooperation a person in your position needs. They would then accept the fact that iftherelsn't enough local news, an editor mµst fill his paper somehow.

·For the Record

I would like to start off by adding a couple of things to Darrell Wellman's reply to the student senate.

First of all, they said that many of the students were greatly disappointed in the PED this year. Who are these .Hmany students?" And if they are so "greatly disappointed" with the PED, why haven't they said anything about it? If people would jusf speak up instead of keeping things to themselves, we · would not have so many i questions or complaints.

Secondly, Darrell touched on the fact that the paper must be

Indiana Jones-the new hero from the creators of JAWS and STAR WARS.

Number six: I would like to encourage all Peru State students to consider contributing towards their college newspaper. If a larger interest was shown, it would take much of the load off of your shoulders.

I am sure you would Jike ·nothing better than to have a staff of 15 instead of six. In that case you could function as a manging editor, instead of a news writer,. photograph locater, layout man, headline writer, etc.

Since I am no longer attending Peru, I can't be sure of the contributions the senate has made this past year, but I can only hope they have been outstanding after reftding their April 15 editorral.

Don, in closing I would like· to say up the good work with · your limited crew. Maybe next year's editor will bave a larger staff thanks to _!IlY letter! .{

P.S. In order to show. the importance the Ped does carry, I hope everyone also read the explanation on.cable TV service, the congratulations to Peggy Gibbs and the statistics on college financial aid. Without the college newspaper, how would these remarks have been heard?

ready for printing by Monday noon. Did anybody bother to ask why some of the news seemed so old? No, I guess they just assumed that I enjoy putting it in, which I don't.,

Next, they said that some of the news doesn't pertain to Peru State College orits students and used the Dennis Weaver stoPy as an example. The story was not meant to highlight Mr. Weaver but to make the students aware of the harmfulness of drugs, a major problem across · the country (we are still members of this country, aren't we?).

The other reason why I put in this story was because of a

Sincerely, Darrell Wellman, Auburn, Nebr. • reason that Darrell brought up in his letter. I didn't have enough stories so I had to make do with what I had.

What I find humorous' in all of this is that a certain member of the senate is also a PED reporter! Why did the senate have to write to the editor to make their complaints heard? Now the reporter I'm speaking of is an excellent reporter, don't get me wrong. What I'm saying is how am I supposed to put anything in detail on the student senate in the PED when I don't get anything in detail on the student senate?

And the Education Dept. last fall installed a new computer to help track down the estimated one million former students who still owe back loan payments. Such efforts won't unfairly punish "real hardship cases," Powell says, "as ·long as they keep in touch with the relevant agency and work out some kind of deferment plan."

Students With Bad Grades May Be Stripped of Aid

The government will soon force colleges to strip students with bad grades off their federal financial aid, at least if a congressional advisory committee gets its way.

The National Commission on Student Financial Assistance, created three years ago to draw up student aid bills for Congress, last week recommended a series of new academic rules that colleges would have to impose on aid recipients.

Colleges, the commission said, often don't take aid away from students who don't make "satisfactory academic progress" toward their degrees because of bad grades.

"Our records-seem to point out that the standards are not monitored very closely," says commission spokeswoman Susan Turner.

The proposed new rules are "an attempt to get (schools) to make it clear to students what the standards are," adds Tom Wolanin, an aide to commission member Rep. William Ford <D-Mi).

In January, 1982, the Government Accounting Office <GAO)

estimated that as many as 45 per cent of the nation's college aid offices may not monitor ·aid recipients' grades at all.

Among the 5800 transcripts the GAO surveyed in 1982, it found some students with grade point ayerages as low as .11 still aid.

To assure that grade standards are observed, the commission wants Congress to require schools to publish minimum course, attendence and grade requirements for federal financial aid.

,

.Colleges would also have to identify students as part- or full-time, set up provisions. to account for dropped courses in computing eligibility and to allow for grade appeals, and bar aid to students who don't get their degrees within a certain period of time, Wolanin explains.

\ The schools would then have to submit a report to the U.S. Department of Education on each aid recipient's academic progress, Turner says.

Wolanin expects Congress will "put more flesh on those bones" of the new grade rules over the next few. years. (CPS).

The 1983 National Convention of Alpha Chi on April 7-9 in San Antonio, Texas, was attended by Peru State College student Diana Watton, a business administration and accounting major, senior from Nebraska City, who was the official student delegate from the

Nebraska Delta chapter at PSC.

Approximately 450 students from 50 states attended the convention. Mrs. Watton presented a paper entitled "A New Communications Tool in Business : Teleconferencing.'' She also presided over a section of. the

presentations.

Most of the papers were submitted for possible publica- tion in "The Recorder," Alpha Chi's annual publication. Dr. Clyde Barrett, official sponsor of Alpha Chi, also attended the convention.

Dorm Fire Lights Nationwide Fear

University of Southern Colo.rado student Ross Sibley was asleep in his fourth floor dorm room on March 11 when the fire alarm first sounded at 2 a.m. "I remember getting down on my hands and knees and just crawling for the stairwell," he recalls. "When I got to the stairwell, there was a big ball of smoke moving at me. I just held my breath, said a prayer, grabbed onto a railing, and hoped no o.ne would be in my way."

_ Sibley escaped uninjured, but 33 other USC students didn't from what was the worst case of campus arson this year. Anytime something like the Pueblo fire occurs, we all hold our breaths," says Gary North, director of the Association of College and University Housing Officers.

What makes it worse is that even when someone tries to kill 485 sleeping students in the middle of the night, college officials sure exactly how to prevent it.

About all they can do is "install alarms and warning devices, and make sure-make very sure-you have a good evacuation plan," says Jim Elder, a technical specialist with the Campus Crime Prevention Center in Louisville, Ky.

Fortunately, -most campus arsons amount to "minor problems with deliberately-set fires, ranging from someone lighting a political poster to small trash can and dumpster fires," Elder reports.

Iowa Wesleyan had two arsons in a women's dorm last fall.

Arizona State had a similar series of small fires in a campus apartment building, and University of Texas-El Paco officials nabbed a dorm student last spring as he was a · lighted paper bag down a trash chute.

1

But there have been more serious incidents over the last year. An Arizona student set ten fires and caused $275,000 in university damage before being caught last spring. Oklahoma and Washington both had to evacuate students from deliberately-set dorm fires last May.

Though no one has exact · statistics, Elder thinks, "the actual fireproblem on campuses is probably getting worse

"As more and more kids live in dorms, and as more and more rules a're relaxed-like cooking, smoking and drinking in dorm rooms-::-you°}e going to have more fires."

Cooking, he says, is the number one cause of dorm fires,

followed by smoking and ill-used portable heaters.

Deliberate fires are "even more difficult to document," Elder adds.

'.'Luckily," North notes, "Pueblo was the first bad dorm fire we'v.e s.een this year."

He attributes it to better safety precautions. North says many schools started installing alarms and smoke detectors after several 1981 hotel fires in Las Vegas "raised everyone's consciousness" about fire dangers in large residential structures. Pueblo's "first" status, North says, "shows that colleges and universities have been making real progress in fire prevention." <CPS) "

Milwaukee Meeting

Visited by IA Club

Members of the I.A. Club at Peru State, including eight ,students and three instructors attended the 1983 American Industrial Arts Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on April 21-23.

Ken Larson, instructor of Industrial Arts at PSC, indicated that this convention would be a good opportunity for future teachers.

Most of the group's time was spent on tours, special interest sessions, and viewing the many exhibits and displays at the convention center.

Some of the tours that the group attended included the Pabst Blue Ribbon Brewery, where they saw how beer was processed and packaged; the General Electric plant where the use of compu.ters in designing radiology equipment was observed; the A. C. Delco plant where the group watched the assembly of gyroscopes for rockets and transistor banks for the compu-

ters in jet aircrafts; and the Briggs and Stratton Small Engine Corporation where the students observed the assembly line and mass production of small gasoline engines.

At tire Convention Center. there were many exhibits from major industrial corporations. including printing processes, machines, tools, and education exhibits.

I.A. Club Secretary-Treasurer Greg Conn said that the trip was an enlightening experience. "If the opportunity arises, this should be attended as often as possible during your career," Conn added.

Members of the I.A. Club who attended the convention were senior Mike Rains, junior Brad Johnson, sophomores Kevin Schlange, Rod Lahodney, and Greg Conn and freshmen Mik_e Voigtman. Mark Mcconnaughey and Steve Miller, as well as Ken Larson, Mark Rankin and Robert Pettit.

PSC Enrollment Shows Increase

It was announced by Dr. Kelly Liewer, Registrar at PSC, that the headcount enrollment for the spring 1983 semester stands at 1,006 students, compared to 814 students for the spring semester of 1982, a 23.5 per cent increase. enrollment was up· 9 per cent over spring 1982 and extension center enrollment was up 38.1 per cent compared to spring 1982. Full Time Equivafent students, which is .computed by dividing total credit hours generated by 15, was also up by 11 per cent compared to 1982 sprmg semester when the FTE was 635.8 .compared to the current 705.8 FTE.

The current spring enrollment is the largest enrollment at the college since 1970 when the total enrollment stood at 1,135 students in the fall of that year.

The previous fall enrollment also broke all enrollment records for that period since 1971 when 1,001 students were enrolled at a comparable time. State level projections made in 1978 forecasted serious declines in enrollment across the state.

Dr. Jerry Gallentine, pres-

ident of the college, said the recent enrollment increases are due to greater retention efforts, better programming and improved educational services to Southeast Nebraska. "New leadership in Student Services, now headed by Dean Jerry Joy, and new ideas and service perspective brought to the college by Robert Baker, direct or of Continuing Education, are major factors in the college's growth," he said. "In addition, a general commitment on the part of faculty, staff and students have rounded out the total · college commitment."

Gallentine forecasts that growth in enrollment will be a trend for the college and predicts a total enrollment of 1,500 students by 1987. He points out that even though some state agencies project declining enrolment for almost all colleges, he says this need not be so if greater retention efforts are mounted, programs are kept in tune with changing needs and colleges are attentive and responsive to the needs of their service area.

Letter to the Editor is· Held ·for Maiors Hall

Dear Editor, I would like to take this opportu!1itY to Robin and J_eff for bemg and doing a fme JOb as our residence directors of Delzell Hall this semester.

The problem with having one director is that he or she may not l;>e around when they are needed.

Mark Sievers did a good job last semester, but he had commit-

tments (i.e. football) of his own and couldn •,t always be around. I don't blame him for not wanting to keep the job. With two people, usually one person could be counted on for help.

I hope I speak in behalf of all the "zoo" residents in saying that I hope we find two people who will do as good a job and are as nice fo be around! !

ASA Members Resig-n

by Andrea Schwartzman & Cheryl Jacobs <CPA)

Raising protest$' of financial chicanery and brandishing documents that may have led to a grand jury investigation, the president and national staff have resigned en masse from the American Student Association.

"I reached a point where I could no longer iustifv my involvement with ASA," explains Michael Ch.!lpman, who quit as president April 8th, the same day he got a subpeona to appear before a grand Jury supposedly investigating ASA's financial affairs.

"I was not proud of working for the organization," adds Kevin Sullivan, who resigned as ASA's legislative assistant. The three other members of the staff-Julie Henderson, Barbara , Hill and Clinton Kershaw-also quit at the same time.

Aecording. to Chapman, a Washington, D.C. grand jury is investigating loafls made to the ASA, to which some 500 student governments around the country belong, by ASA founder Tom Duffy and Duffy's family.

Duffy, now an "ex-officio" ASA board member, wouldn't return reporters, phone calls. Dan, his brother, says Tom Duffy is "doing some business, traveling around." , Chapman's charges, says Dan Duffy, should be discounted because "he had some ulterior motives, because he was about to be impeached."

The U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia would not verify or deny that a grand jury investigation of the group, begun five years ago as a "conserva-

tive alternative" to the U.S. Student Association's lobbying for student issues in Washington, was in progress.

And Jim Newton, who describes himself as a "consultant" running the ASA office until the group's fate is determined, says he's received "no official notification about such an investigation."

But Chapman, in a letter of resignation sent to all ASA member schools, says he uncovered in late January, 1983 a file detailing "highly-questionable" Duffy family loans to the group.

Between December, 1979 and March 10, 1980, Chapman found · Duffy and his father-Barrington, Ill., travel agency owner T. Dennis Duffy-loaned ASA some $30,000.

By March 10, 1980, ASA had repaid Tom Duffy some $43,096.94, Chapman says.

But on the same ·day, T. Dennis Duffy donated $15,000 to the group.

"I have qualms and reservations about such business practices," Cl1\apman wrote in his letter of resignation. Chapman, on the advice of his attorney, then turned the group's financial records over to "the proper authorities."

Apparently on "the authorities'" advice, Chapman stayed on his job until April 8th for fear further records might be hidden if he Jeft. He officially resigned the day he received the subpoena, confident remaining records would be protected, he says. The national staff left the same day, alleging in a group

the winners were: Arc Welding-Jim Gelger, Millard North· Oxyacetylene Welding-Steve Bow hay, Pawnee City; Drafting -Mike McNeel, Millard North· and Small Engines-Randy Schroeder and Daryl Meisinger, Plattsmouth.

The awar.d for the best overall junior high project went to the eighth grade-section II at Louisville while the senior high award winner was .Steve Smith of Millard North.

in Protest

letter that "the Association has continued to be nothing more than a for the questionable busmess practices exercised by Thomas Duffy."

"The rest of the staff should be viewed as a decis10n of a crew to go down with the captain," Newton suggests.

Newton says the ASA, which suffered a mass staff defection in February, 1981 and lost Chapman's predecessor to another angry resignation, will survive.

"There is very clear and compelling support for the need of an organization with ASA's philosophical direction, and mdividual people do not stand larger than that commitment," he says.

Newton hopes to have new officers installed by the end of April, and says the Duffy family's financial involvement in ASA is over for now.

Chapman claims Newton will have powerful help in reviving the group. "When I resigned Jim called the White House. White House asked to have a recovery ·plan to keep ASA alive."

But Chapman would "advocate strongly that the organization is dissolve.ct. I have grave, grave reservations about Jim." Congressional committee members apparently wouldn't miss them much.

Tom Wolanin, an aide to the / House Postsecondary Education Subcommittee, says he rarely saw any ASA presense, even in the budget fights over financial aid and the draft the last three years. (CPS)
