INDIANA-PURDUE  UNIVERSITY,  FORT 


Committee  develops  plans 
for  academic  autonomy 


By  REX  PUTT 

After  three  years  of  study  and 
research  the  Academic  Structure 
Development  Committee  has  develop- 
ed a  plan  for  an  autonomous 
university  to  be  presented  to  the 
Purdue  Faculty  Senate  at  Fort 
Wayne. 

Dr.  0.  Franklin  Kenworthy, 
chairman  of  the  ASD  committee, 
described  the  new  plan  as  "a  nice 
plan  that  recognizes  unique  needs  of 
this  campus." 

Kenworthy  strongly  supports  the 
new  academic  structure.  He  said 
"We've  (the  committee)  worked  or  it 


for  three  years  and  we  feel  it  serves 
the  needs  of  students  very  well.  There 
are  still  many  things  the  community 
would  like  to  have  more  autonomy  on, 
but  there  are  limits  set  by  Purdue  of 
Lafayette." 

He  went  on  to  evaluate  the 
necessity  of  a  new  academic  plan. 
"Everybody  should  put  aside  the  old 
unless  the  old  does  the  job."  He 
continued  to  point  out  that  the  old  ( the 
present  system)  is  definitely  not 
doing  the  proper  job,  so  it  should  be

Some  big  news 
from   One  A.D. 


By  SAM  STEWART 

(History  records  that  St.  Luke 
was  a  physician,  not  a  newspaper- 
man, but  his  work  in  the  Gospel 
according  to  St.  Luke  is  still  regarded 
as  a  good  story  by  a  good  reporter. 
Still,  one  can't  help  wondering  how  a 
20th  Century  newsman  would  have 
reported  the  event  we  celebrate 
today.  Maybe  something  like  this...) 

BETHLEHEM,  Judea  -The  rela- 
tionship of  unprecedented  wonders  in 
the  heavens  over  Judea  to  the  birth  of 
a  child  in  Bethlehem  was  being 
studied  today. 

That  more  than  coincidence  was 
involved  was  established  by  the 
stories  of  eye-witnesses. 

These  facts  stand  out  from  a 
piecing-together  of  background  infor- 

Because  of  a  decree  from  Caesar 
Augustus  that  all  the  world  should  be 
taxed,  citizens  everywhere  had  con- 
verged upon  their  own  cities  to  pay 
their  taxes.  The  decree  had  been 
handed  along  to  the  people  through 
Cyrenius,  governor  of  Syria. 

Among  those  coming  to  Bethle- 
hem to  pay  their  tax  was  Joseph,  who 
had  come  from  Galilee,  out  of  the  City 
of  Nazareth,  unto  Bethlehem,  the  City 
of  David,  inasmuch  as  he  was  of  the 
house  and  lineage  of  David. 

Joseph,  accompanied  by  his 
expectant  wife,  Mary,  arrived  late  in 
Bethlehem  and  found  housing  imposs- 
ible to  obtain.  Rooms  everywhere 
were  taken  by  the  scores  of  citizens  in 
town  to  pay  their  taxes. 

One  Bethlehem  innkeeper,  recog- 
nizing the  situation  and  sympathetic 
with  the  travelers'  plight,  granted 
them  the  use  of  his  stable  for  the 
night. 

-,  It  was  in  this  stable  that  Mary 
brought  forth  her  first-born  son.  She 
wrapped  him  in  swaddling  clothes, 
routine  procedure  for  the  times,  and 
laid  him  in  a  manger. 

This,  by  itself,  might  have  stirred 


How  they  came  to  leave  the 
country  and  hasten  to  Bethlehem  is 
told  in  this  interview  with  one  of  the 
shepherds: 

"There  we  were,  when  the  Angel 
of  the  Lord  came  upon  us,  and  the 
glory  of  the  Lord  shone  all  around  us. 
I'll  be  frank  about  it  -  we  were 
frightened  almost  out  of  our  wits. 

"Then  the  Angel  said,  'Fear  not; 
for  behold  I  bring  you  tidings  of  great 
joy,  which  shall  be  to  all  people.  For 
unto  you  is  born  this  day  a  Saviour, 
which  is  Christ  the  Lord.'  You  can 
imagine  how  we  felt." 

The  Angel  gave  specific  instruct- 
ions, the  shepherd  said,  continuing: 

"He  said  to  watch  for  a  sign.  He 
assured  us  that  we  would  find  the 
babe  wrapped  in  swaddling  clothes, 
lying  in  a  manger.  I'll  admit  we  were 
more  puzzled  than  impressed,  at  this 

"Then,"  the  shepherd  went  on, 
"suddenly  there  was  with  the  Angel  a 
multitude  of  the  heavenly  host 
praising  God,  and  saying,  'Glory  to 
God  in  the  highest,  and  on  earth 
peace,  good  will  toward  men!'" 

All  the  shepherds,  by  their  own 
statements,  were  deeply  impressed 
and  talked  among  themselves  about 
the  next  step  they  should  take.  As 
each  recalled  it,  they  said  to  one 
another : 


"Let 


go 


the  t 

There  were  shepherds  abiding  in 
their  fields,  keeping  watch  over  their 
flocks  by  night,  certainly  unprepared 
for  what  was  to  come,  and  resigned  to 
the  boredom  of  another  night  guard- 
ing their  sheep. 


Bethlehem,  and  see  this  thing  which  is 
come  to  pass,  which  the  Lord  hath 
made  known  unto  us.  We  came  as  fast 

"And  sure  enough,  we  found 
Mary,  and  Joseph,  and  the  babe  lying 
in  a  manger." 

The  shepherds  lost  no  time  in 
spreading  the  word  about  the  child 
and  what  they  had  heard  about  Him; 
they  admit  to  encountering  some 
raised  eyebrows. 

Before  they  returned,  glorifying 
and  praising  God  for  all  the  things 
they  had  heard  and  seen,  the 
shepherds  met  with  the  press  and  one 
of  them  expressed  the  mood  which 
seemed  to  prevail  through  Judea  that 

"It  was  an  experience  I  shall 
never  forget.  I  am  only  a  poor 
shepherd,  but  I  am  convinced  I  was 
privileged  to  be  in  on  the  start  of 
something  big." 


IU-PU   to  ask  for 
more  money 


Indiana-Purdue  will  be  asking  for 
an  additional  appropriation  from  the 
General  Assembly  when  it  meets  in 
January.  The  IU-PU  request  is  part  of 
an  511.7  million  request  by  the 
Indiana  Commission  on  Higher  Edu- 
cation for  all  state-supported  univers- 
ities in  Indiana. 

IU-PU's  money,  if  granted,  will 
be  used  primarily  for  5  per  cent 
faculty  salary  increments  for  the  next 
fiscal  year. 

Although  IU-PU  will  be  on  a 
unified  budget  next  year,  the  two 
schools  placed  separate  requests  with 
the  legislature.  Purdue  has  asked  for 
5170,325.  I.U.'s  figure  was  not 
available. 


According  to  Roger  J.  Manges, 
dean  and  director  of  Purdue  here,  the 
additional  allocation  and  increased 
faculty  increments  will  not  result  in  a 

reported  by  one  of  the  city  newspap- 
ers earlier  this  week. 

"We're  trying  to  respond  to  a  real 
need  on  the  part  of  faculty  that  we 
have  not  been  fiscally  able  to  respond 
to  at  an  earlier  time,"  said  James  E. 
Gilbert,  associate  dean  for  academic 
affairs  for  Purdue  here. 

The  additional  funding  request 
will  go  before  the  upcoming  legisla- 
tive session.  If  approved,  the  addition- 
al money  will  be  used  in  the  fiscal 
year  beginning  July  1,  1974. 


approval.  The  committee,  which  has 
11  members  (all  of  whom  are 
associated  with  the  Purdue  faction  of 
Indiana-Purdue,  was  originally  form- 
ed in  1970  with  the  approval  of  the 
Purdue  University  administration  in 
Lafayette. 

The  new  system  calls  for  what  Dr. 
Kenworthy  describes  as  "a  university 
with  two  major  colleges.  Under  these 
colleges  will  be  Curriculum  Councils 
which  are  responsible  for  making 
curriculum  decisions  for  allied  de- 
partments. These  councils  will  act  as 
curriculum  funnels." 

Besides  the  two  major  colleges, 


programs  will  be  referred  t 


The  two  colleges,  which  will  be 
referred  to  as  the  College  of  Applied 
Studies,  and  the  College  of  Arts  & 
Sciences  will  each  be  divided  into 
Curriculum  Councils. 

Arts  &  Sciences  will  have 
Curriculum  Councils  of  Behavioral  St 
Social  Sciences,  Humanities  and 
Sciences.  Applied  Studies  will  have 
Curriculum  Councils  of  Engineering 
&  Engineering  Technologies,  Health 
Professions  &  Paramedical  Technolo- 
gies, and  Education  &  Service 
Technologies. 

All  Curriculum  Councils  will 
consist  of  two  or  more  departments 
and  several  of  the  departments  will 
have  different  sections. 

For  an  example:  in  the  College  of 
Applied  Studies  there  is  the  Curricu- 
lum Council  of  Education  &  Service 
Technologies.  Under  this  Curriculum 
Council  is  a  department  of  Education. 
This  department  is  in  turn  divided 
into  sections  of  Audiology  &  Speech 
Pathology,  Home  Economics,  and 
Industrial  Education. 


The  main  proposal  of  this  new 
academic  plan  is  to  have  a  dean 
heading  each  college,  and  otie  faculty 


senate  representing  both  colleges. 
The  faculty  senate  shall  act  as  what 
Kenworth  calls  "the  supreme  court  of 
the  University." 

The  new  academic  plan  hasn't 
been  actively  publicized  (as  of  the 
time  this  article  was  written),  but 
many  faculty  members  and  adminis- 
trators on  the  Purdue  side  have  at 
least  had  a  chance  to  glance  at  the 
proposed  document. 

Dr.  Benjamin  Becker,  a  professor 
of  biology,  was  dissatisfied  with 
several  items  he  had  the  chance  to 
examine.  He  feels  that  "there  should 
be  no  elected  Senate,  but  rather  an 
organization  that  involves  all  faculty 
members."  The  plan  proposed  by  the 
committee  to  form  one  Senate  would 
decrease  the  number  of  faculty 
members  representing  the  faculty. 

Becker  also  questioned  which 
teachers  would  be  the  ones  to  go  if  the 
English  departments,  which  are  now 
separate,  would  be  combined.  "What 
will  happen  to  Dean  Manges   and 


Roger  J.  Manges,  dean  and 
director  of  the  Purdue  faction  of 
Indiana-Purdue,  was  asked  to  form  a 
committee  for  the  purpose  of  creating 
a  structure  that  could  hopefully  serve 
the  entire  campus.  In  the  early  stages 
the  Purdue  committee  met  with 
Indiana  representatives,  but  the 
progress  of  the  two  representatives  in 
Fort  Wayne  was  thwarted  when  there 


The  reconstruction  plan  for  a  new 
academic  structure  had  to  be  revised 
to  suit  the  standards  of  the  new 
administration.  For  awhile  under  new 
Purdue  president  Arthur  Hansen,  the 
action  of  the  Fort  Wayne  committee 
was  stymied.  The  faculty  finally  got 
the  go-ahead  to  continue  with  the 
plan,  so  they  quickly  prepared  the 
document  for  the  new  structure  which 
they  presented  this  week  at  the 
Purdue  Faculty  Senate  meeting  in 
Fort  Wayne. 


The  famous  Circle  K  tub,  which  collected  Jlfioo  for  a  family 
last  Christmas,  is  on  the  job  again  this  year,  located  on  the 
first  floor  of  the  Student  Union.

Indiana-Purdue  University's  nat- 
ional service  fraternity.  Circle  K,  is 
currently  sponsoring  a  drive  to  raise 
donations  for  radio  station  WOWO's 
1973  Penny  Pitch  family.  The  organi- 
zation will  take  an  old-fashioned 
bathtub  on  wheels  to  various  locations 
in  Fort  Wayne  in  an  effort  to  raise 
money  for  the  needy  family. 

On  two  Saturdays,  December  15 
and  22, 1973,  the  Circle  K  group  will  go 
out  into  the  Fort  Wayne  community  to 
collect  donations.  On  Saturday,  Dec- 
ember 15,  the  bathtub  will  be  at  North 
K-Mart,  Georgetown  Square,  Time 
Corners,  and  Southtown  Mall. 


A  week  later  Circle  K  members, 
alumni,  and  Kiwanis  Club  members 
will  push  the  tub  from  the  south  Sears 
store  to  the  downtown  area,  at  the 
corner  of  Wayne  and  Calhoun  Streets. 
On  that  same  day  another  tub  will  be 
pushed  from  the  Indiana-Purdue 
campus,  also  to  the  downtown  area,

five  children,  ranging  in  age  from 
seven  months  to  12  years.

Committee  voted  to  limit  its  size  to 
the  present  17  members,  according  to 
a  committee  member  who  asked  not 
to  be  identified.  The  committee  met  in 
closed  session  last  Friday,  December 
7,  1973. 

The  committee  voted  to  close  its 
membership  after  hearing  a  request 
for  the  addition  of  a  black  representa- 
tive and  local  administrators. 

Obadiah  Booker,  a  staff  member 
in  the  Office  of  Veterans'  Affairs,

Student  Body  President  Brock 
Able,  who  made  the  student  appoint- 
ments, said  that  Booker  had  not 
discussed  the  matter  with  him  before 
the  students  were  named. 

John  W.  Ryan,  president  of 
Indiana  University,  acknowledged 
that  there  were  no  blacks  on  the 
committee,  and  added  that  there  was 

One  student  member  of  the 
committee  disputed  Booker's  claim 
that  the  student  delegation  needed  a 
black  to  be  representative.  "We  are 
representing  all  students;  we  don't 
need  quotas,"  he  said. 

Also  upset  with  the  committee 
compositon  is  the  IU-PU  administra 
tive  staff.  According  to  Purdu* 
Provost  Harold  F.  Robinson,  when  hi 
addressed  the  faculty  on  November  9 
1973,  the  committee  would  contaii

The  administrators  wrote  a  letter 
to  the  presidents  requesting  repre- 
sentation. The  letter  was  signed  by 
about  130  of  the  235  administrative, 
service,  and  clerical  staff  members. 

"What  we  need  to  know  is  why  the 
administrators  were  taken  off  after 
they  were  put  on,"  said  Rudolph  W. 
Geter,    assistant    to    the    academic 

Robinson  told  the  Communicator 
last  week  that  there  was  some 
confusion  between  the  two  universi- 
ties on  the  issue  of  administrative 
representation.  Reliable  sources  on 
campus  verified  Robinson's  state- 
ment. The  sources  said  that  the 
confusion  was  caused  by  poor 
communication  between  the  two 
presidents'  offices.

tive representation  on  the  committee, 
but  he  thought  that  it  would  have  an

IU-PU  will  test  a  standardized 
exam  schedule  during  final  week,  but 
one  university  staff  member  is 
pessimistic  that  the  new  system  will 
work  without  considerable  problems. 

The  staff  member,  who  asked  not 
to  be  identified,  expects  a  large 
number  of  scheduling  problems  to 
surface  during  finals,  which  will  run 
next  week,  December  17-21.  He  cited 
the  fact  that  there  is  no  break  time 
between  one  final  and  the  next  as  a 

He  also  criticized  the  lack  of 
contingency  planning  to  handle  such 
problems  as  two  classes  meeting  in 
the  same  room  at  the  same  time  to 
take  different  finals.  The  official  said 
that  the  schedule  did  allow  this  to 
happen. 

IU-PU  Registrar  David  Skelton 
disputed  these  charges  when  they 
were  brought  to  his  attention  by  the 

Regarding  the  two-finals-in-one- 
room  charge,  Skelton  said,  "We  have 
checked  that  situation  to  make  it  a 

Skelton  said  that  the  new  sched- 
ule was  put  through  a  dry  run,  and 
most  of  these  problems  were  taken 
care  of  at  that  time. 

Dr.  Skelton  defended  a  standard- 
ized schedule  because  of  the  adminis- 
trative time  saved.  "This  eliminates 
the  need  to  put  together  a  whole  new 
schedule  just  for  exam  week,"  he 


45  minutes  each.  The  faculty  instruct- 
ed Skelton  to  increase  the  exam  time 
to  a  full  two  hours,  eliminating  the  15 
minute  breaks.  According  to  Skelton, 
by  that  time  it  was  too  late  to 
completely  rework  the  schedule  to 
allow  for  breaks. 

"It  won't  go  without  any  prob- 
lems, but  neither  did  any  other  exam 
schedule,"  said  Skelton,  adding  that 
final  week  "should  be  relatively 
problem  free  as  far  as  format  is 


concerned." 

The  standardized  schedule    as- 
signs most  finals  to  the  approximate 


i.  This  eliminates  the  need 
for  students  and  faculty  to  remember 
a  time  and  place  that  may  be 
completely  different  from  the  regular 
class  meetings. 

All  instructors  have  been  given 
the  matrix  which  is  used  to  determine 
the  exact  time  for  each  final.  They 
have  been  asked  to  inform  their 
students  of  this  time. 

The  matrix  is  posted  in  the 
registration  area  for  those  who  forget 
or  want  to  double-check  the  informa- 
tion. The  registration  offices  are 
located  in  the  north  wing  of  Kettler 
Hall  on  the  ground  floor. 

Any  IU-PU  student  who  has  more 
than  two  finals  on  any  one  day  can 
request  that  one  of  the  exams  be 
rescheduled.  Likewise,  if  a  student 
has  two  finals  meeting  at  the  same 
time,  one  can  be  taken  at  another 

Dr.  Skelton  said  that  a  standard- 
ized schedule  was  instituted  at  the 
request  of  a  number  of  faculty 
members.  This  schedule  saved  staff 
time,  and  according  to  Skelton, 
reduces  the  chance  of  a  student 
having  two  finals  at  the  same  time. 

A  standardized  schedule  also 
reduces  the  confusion  of  remember- 
ing when  and  where  finals  are  to  be 
given,  said  Skelton.

would  cause  considerable  hardship 
for  as  many  as  GO  people. 

The  staff  member  hoped  the  new 
approach  would  prove  acceptable  and 
that  any  bugs  could  be  worked  out  of 
the  system. 

Summing  up  his  feeling  toward 
the  controversial  issue.  Skelton  said, 
"I'm  quite  anxious  to  see  how  the 
final  exam  week  goes."

Changes  for  the  spring 

Beginning  with  the  January  14  issue,  we  will  be  making  many 
changes  in  the  stvle  and  format  of  the  Communicator.  The  most 
significant  change  "will  be  a  twice-weekly  publishing  format.  We  will 
come  out  on  Mondays  and  Thursdays,  hopefully  around  noon.  The 
Thursday  issue  will  be  much  like  it  has  been  this  semester.  The  Monday 
issue  will  probably  be  only  four  or  six  pages,  depending  on  the  advertising 
volume  for  that  issue. 

The  sports  page  will  add  regular  coverage  of  home  Komet  games.  We 
also  hope  lo  begin  some  coverage  of  Indiana  and  Purdue  basketball,  but 
this  will  probably  not  be  on  a  steady  basis. 

We  will  institute  an  entertainment  page  in  the  Thursday  issue.  This 
will  feature  leviews  and  columns  of  campus  programs  and  off-campus 
items,  such  as  records,  chess,  books,  and  other  related  matters.  The  page 
will  also  publish  an  activities  calendar.  Requirements  for  having  events 
listed  in  this  calendar  are  given  elsewhere  in  this  paper. 

The  editorial  page  will  offer  two  new  sludenl  columnists,  and  Dan 
Motto's  Non-Prophet  Corner  will  be  moved  to  this  page. 

We  hope  to  resume  coverage  of  city  news  items  that  concern  this 
campus  or  are  of  general  interest  to  our  readership.  Before  we  can  do 
this,  we  need  to  hire  a  reporter  with  a  good  background  in  city 
government  and  community  affairs. 

We  also  will  be  usmu  the  Indiana  Collegiak'  Press  Association's  news 
service  to  inform  our  readers  of  the  happenings  in  Indianapolis  during  the 
General  Assembly  session  in  January  and  February. 

National  issues  that  are  of  vital  interest  to  our  readers,  such  as  the 
energy  crisis  and  the  Middle  East,  will  be  featured  on  both  news  and 
editorial  pages  in  manner  that  will  supplement  other  news  sources. 

And,  of  course,  we  will  increase  our  coverage  of  campus  news.  We 
will  keep  our  readers  up-to-date  on  such  vital  topics  as  the  search  for  a 
new  super-chancellor  and  business  manager.  We  will  be  giving  priority  to 
stories  concerning  the  future  unification  of  this  campus  and  the 
ramifications  of  that  issue.

Walking  casually  lo  the  student 
union.  I  floated  past  the  library 
feeling  pretty  good  My  cigarette  was 
burning  slow  and  I  was  strutting 
along  trying  to  be  cool.  And  even 
though  1  was  500  pages  behind  in  my 
reading,  things  were  beginning  to  get 
better.  Until,  that  is,  my  fool  hit  a 
crack  and  threw  me  on  my  nose. 
.Naturally,  the  fall  shook  up  my  mind 
and  scared  the  hell  out  of  me. 

When  I  stood  up,  reality  was  jusl 
an  invented  word  designed  to  hide  the 
interwoven  fantasy.  It  was  a  confus- 
ing situation.  The  sky  was  still  gray, 
but  the  blurred  images  before  me 
were  puzzling  until  I  rubbed  my  eyes 
clear.  Wow!  I  couldn't  believe  it. 
What  the  hell  was  a  Roman  orgy 
doing  on  a  college  campus? 

It  surprised  me,  but  could  I  doubt 
my  eyes.  On  this  long  i 


Dazed  and  confused,  I  ran  lo  the 
student  union.  Once  inside  everything 
was  the  boring  way  I  remembered. 
Everything  was  the  same;  I  pulled 


families  have  clothes  dryers  now, 
compared  with  20  per  cent  in  1960. 

The  energy  demand  on  these 
newer  appliances  is  much  higher  than 
the  appliances  of  the  1950's  as  well.  A 
color  television  has  a  wattage  of  615 
compared  to  a  1950's  black  and  white 
wattage  of  237.  Air  conditioners  have 
wattages  of  1,566,  dishwashers  1,201 
and  clothes  dryers  4,856,  much 
greater  than  older  appliances  like 
small  refrigerators  (241  watts), 
radios  (71  watts)  or  food  mixers  (127 

We  can  help  save  energy  and 
money  if  we  keep  our  appliances  in 
good  working  order.  Consult  the 
owner's  manual  for  detailed  informa- 
tion about  operating  and  maintaining 
your  appliances.  Be  sure  to  have  your 
furnace  checked  once  a  year  and 
change  the  filters  frequently  during 
use.  Defrost  your  freezer  as  soon  as 
the  ice  buildup  reaches  one-fourth 

If  you  are  going  to  purchase  a  new 
appliance,  perhaps  for  a  Christmas 
present,  consider  the  energy  efficien- 
cy of  the  various  models  in  addition  to 
their  color  and  utility.  The  energy  and 
efficiencies  of  heating  systems, 
air -conditioners,  refrigerators  and 
other  major  appliances  vary  consid- . 
erably  from  one  model  to  another. 
Shop  around,  requesting  information 
on  energy  efficiency  and  operation 
costs  of  the  models  you  are  consider- 
ing. 

This  is  not  as  difficult  as  it 
sounds.  Many  manufacturers  already 
voluntarily  label  appliances  accord- 
ing to  their  energy  efficiency. 
Although  the  more  efficient  may  cost 


more,  it  is  likely  to  save  enough 
energy  to  pay  for  the  extra  initial 
expense. 

The  House  of  Representatives' 
Subcommittee  on  Energy  tells  me 
that  side-by-side  refrigerator-freez- 
ers and  upright  full  size  freezers  are 
often  the  least  efficient  models.  In 
addition,  they  have  found  that 
frost-free  refrigerators  and  freezers 
consume  up  to  fifty  percent  more 
electricity  than  conventional  models. 
They  also  note  that  stoves,  clothes 
cryers  and  water  heaters  that  use  gas 
consume  less  total  energy  than  do 
their  electric  counterparts.

!  IN  BLACK  AND  WHITE 


By  STAN  JONES 

As  is  evidenced  by  all  but  the 
weather,  the  Christmas  season  has 
once  again  made  its  presence  known. 
While  all  around  us  we  perceive 
shortages  of  some  sort,  the  acknow- 
lendged  length  of  the  yule  season  has 
been  steadily  increasing.  Long  before 
Thanksgiving  the  commercials  begin 
blaring  their  glaring  sales  pitch  to  an 
admittedly  indignant  yet  thoroughly 
receptive  public  The  mad  rush  to  lay- 
away  gifts,  with  no  charge,  of  course, 
creates  an  increasing  momentum  to 
incorporate  even  those  who  show 
reluctance  to  the  tide. 

To  what  has  Christmas  evolved 
that  we  revere  this  above  all  days'" 
From  a  purely  commercial  view,  the 
sales  during  this  time  are  supreme 
above  all  events.  Even  the  total  sales 
from  the  combined  birthdays  come 
nowhere  close.  The  show  we  see 
during  this  time,  the  proliferation  of 
innumerable  Santas,  snowmen,  and 
silver  angels,  lends  a  vaudevillian 
touch  lacking  in  the  other  eleven 
months.  Good  theatre  of  sorts, 
escapism  from  the  doldrums  of 
despair,  and  a  time  to  recoup  and 
regroup  for  the  advent  of  yet  another 

Christmas  seems  to  have  evolved 
into  an  artificial  panorama  of  tinsel, 
wildly  blinking  colored  lights  and 
glaring  neon  signs  proclaiming  cheer, 
peace  and  good  will  toward  men.  All 
to  little  avail.  Peace,  cheer  and  good 
will  toward  men  seem  as  distant 
today  as  does  the  comet  Kohoutek. 
The  season  of  giving  to  many  centers 
around  the  dilemma  of  trying  to  find 
the  perfect  gift  for  the  person  who  has 
everything.  This  problem  is  in  most 
cases  solved  by  merely  purchasing  a 
more  elaborate  and  expensive  item  of 
what  one  already  possesses.  Nice,  but 
in  most  instances  only  superfluous. 

Fortunately,  the  Spirit  of  Christ- 
mas has  not  been  totally  lost.  Even 
with  the  overpowering  presence  of  the 
artificial,  many  bright  spots  emerge. 
The  many  organizations  and  indivi- 
duals who  perform  innumerable  acts 

"  kindness  and  generosity  show  that 
people  are  still  willing  to  give  that 
most  precious  of  gifts:  themselves. 
Giving  of  their  time  and  also  their 
financial  resources  where  needed  is 
the  outward  expression  of  that  inner 
love  toward  those  who  are,  to  say  the 
least,  less  fortunate  than  themselves. 
The  range  of  activities  is  almost  as 
diversified  as  those  involved.  From 
jthe  grand  programs  such  as  WOWO 
Penny  Pilch  and  those  conducted  by 
the  Salvation  Army,  local  corpora- 
ions  and  labor  unions,  to  the  simple 
)ne  person  expressing  sincere 
veil  wishes  to  his  neighbor.  From  the 

raternal  organizations,  civic  clubs 


Mortuary  art  of  living 


By  RICHARD  SOKOLOWSKI 


Envious  of  other  nations'  art  of 
life,  American  architects  finally 
succeeded  in  endowing  the  U.S.  with 
the  cheapest,  newest,  and  best 
mortuary  art  of  living. 

It  did  not  happen  over  one  electric 
day,  but  slowly  has  evolved  to  its 
present  greatness.  The  transition 
period  is  best  exemplified  by  I.U. 
Purdue's  new  library.  The  goal  - 
windowless  structure,  is  here  only 
partly  achieved,  windows  being 
raised  above  human  heads  The  next 
step  will  be  to  remove  them 
completely,  following  the  best  exam- 
_•  pie  of  Lake  Mortuary  House,  Medical- 
Dental  Center  of  Lake  Avenue, 
I.U.-Purdue    classrooms 


Leo  Road,  and  other  like  buildings 
spring  up  all  over  Fort  Wayne. 

This  evolution  was  socially  neces- 
sary, since  our  library's  raised 
windows  caused  giraffe-like  growth  of 
the  necks  of  the  readers,  caused  by 
primitive,  anti-American,  undevelop- 


;  clouds, 


anxiety  about  after-life, 
catacombs  resembling  offices  remind 
constantly  its  occupants  about  death, 
thus  making  it  easier  to  relocate,  an 
important  fact  in  our  high-death-rate 
society . 


It  also  serves  a  useful  purpose  of 
muffling  the  shouts  of  patients  being 
robbed  by  our  leading  dental  and 
medical  industry.  Religious  feelings 
are  also  born,  due  to  the  eternal 
aspect  of  the  8  hour  working  day, 
which  thus  seems  endlessly  long, 
without  the  distraction  of  looking  on 
something  natural,  except  on  silent 
rows  of  tomb-like  buried  files. 

The  success  of  the  new  architec- 
ture is  proved  by  the  wish  of  the 
I.U  .-Purdue  architect  and  the  approv- 
ing committee  to  leave  their  pre- 
progress  large-windowed  houses,  in 
order  lo  spend  the  rest  of  their  life  in 
walled  seclusion  of  the  reading 
shrine,  to  contemplate  its  carpets  and 
ceilings  e

and  benevolent  societies  to  local 
students  who  add  to  their  already 
tight  schedules  time  to  help  parent- 
less,  handicapped  or  abandoned 
children  to  enjoy  Christmas,  we  see 
that  element  of  the  soul  which,  in  the 
final  analysis,  is  what  makes  life  all 
worthwhile.  Giving  to  others  as  God 
has  given  to  us  is  Christmas. 

In  this  season  we  emulate  Christ 


most  by  giving  of  ourselves  in  the 
same  spirit  of  love  as  He  has  given  to 
us.  Maybe  this  is  too  much  to  ask,  but 
why  do  we  limit  ourselves  so?  Does 
this  great  outpouring  of  love,  charity 
and  yes,  peace,  which  we  distribute  at 
this  time  of  year  drain  so  much  from 
us  that  it  takes  us  the  remainder  of 
the  year  lo  rest  and  prepare  for  yet 


Singers  defend  Dickens  Dinner 


To  the  Editor: 

There  is  apparently  no  end  to  the 
Communicator's  potential  for  attack- 
ing any  person  or  organization  of  this 
campus  connected  with  any  form  of 
art.  Only  a  few  weeks  back  it  was  the 
campus  literary  magazine,  of  which  I 
am  editor;  now  the  victim-elect  is 
University  Singers,  and  the  charge  is 
NEGLECTING  THE  STUDENTS. 

In  the  first  place,  Franke  is  in 
incredibly  poor  taste  in  using  his 
column  as  propaganda  space;  he  had 
ought  to  bully  the  senate  into  carrying 
out  his  whims  more  subtly,  or  at  least 
elsewhere  and  nti  under  the  inept 
guise  of  journalism. 

In  the  second,  procedures  regard- 
ing this  year's  ticket  sales  were  made 
clear  to  everyone,  and  Dickens 
Dinner  is  not  a  capitalistic  adventure; 
at  best  we  wdl  break  even.  Therefore 
these  rantings  of  students  being 
ignored  or  ripped  off,  as  it  were,  are 
pure  silliness.  Discount  prices  for 
students  would  be  nice  but  probably 
impossible ;  one  would  have  to  discuss 
the  matter  with  the  head  of  the  Music 
Department,  which  Franke  apparent- 
ly has  not  done;  he  has  in  classic 
Communicator  style  merely  begun 
shooting  venom  before  even  research- 
ing his  target.  As  for  the  suggestion 
that  we  are  neglecting  the  students 
and  playing  up  to  the  community, 
Franke  might  do  well  to  attend  some 
of  our  performances  and  see  for 
himself  that  the  students  on  this 
campus  are  apparently  more  interest- 
ed in  acid  rock  than  music;  the 
students  are  always  in  a  pronounced 
minority  while  the  community  seems 
more  interested. 

Regarding  the  incidental  sum 
allocated  Singers  by  the  senate, 
Franke  need  not  try  to  fool  anyone 
into  thinking  that  this  money  is 
allocated  out  of  concern  for  Singers  or 
for  music.  It  is  allocated  because  a 
group  of  bright-eyed  singers  to 
bounce  onstage  and  chant  briefly  at 
university  functions  is  a  necessary 
status  symbol  to  any  campus.  Beyond 
that,  the  senate  could  care  less  about 
Singers;  music  is  a  background  item 
to  our  senate  and  students,  and  we 
have  consistently  been  treated  as  a 
background  group,  at  best  an 
eccentric  fringe  whenever  we  ab 
andoned  the  Johnny  Mann  image  for 
the  Anton  Bruckner.  Franke  had 
ought  to  take  a  closer  look  at  who  is 
neglecting  whom. 

The  most  disgusting  thing  about 
this  editorial  is  the  assumption 
inherent  in  it  that  a  few  foreboding 
words  from  Franke  are  going  to  strike 
fear  into  the  hearts  of  University 
Singers  and  make  them  cower 
frantically  into  doing  whatever 
Franke  in  his  self-appointed  role  as 
God  deems  should  be  done.  If  his 
Word  would  be  enough  to  have  all  of 
our  senate  money  cut  off  and  he  could 
by  some  Nixonic  alliance  with  the 
administration  foreclose  all  of  our 
equipment,  sheet  music,  and  cos- 
tumes, the  campus  can  rest  assured 
that  Harper  and  his  eccentrics  would 


still  have  their  voices  and  would 
rather  calmly  borrow  a  pitch  pipe  and 
go  about  the  business  of  getting  ready 
for  the  spring  Brahms  concert— this 
latest  piece  of  journalistic  porno- 
graphy has  only  served  to  further 
alienate  Singers  from  the  student 
body,  a  sad  situation  indeed,  when 
both  parties  could  draw  so  much  from 
the  artistic  achievement  that  is  the 
purpose  of  University  Singers. 

S.  M.  BRATTAIN 

To  the  Editor: 

I  confess  that  I  was  rather  taken 
aback  by  your  editorial,  of  Thursday 


of  the  truth? 

1.  The  Dickens  Dinner  will  not  be 
held  December  10. 

2.  The  University  Singers  did  not 
receive  the  sum  you  indicated  from 
student  activity  monies,  but  rather  a 
figure  some  one  thousand  dollars  less. 

3.  This  sum  is  used  to  further  the 
work  of  the  Singers,  not  to  subsidize 
the  Dinner.  The  Dickens  Dinner  must 
be  self-supporting  since  it  is  not 
budgeted  by  the  Student  Senate. 

4.  Students  did  in  fact  have 
priority  for  ticket  purchase,  since 
they  are  in  a  position  to  deliver  ticket 
requests  personally,  whereas  outsid- 
ers have  to  use  the  mail. 

5.  It  is  perhaps  unreasonable  to 
draw  conclusions  about  the  attitudes 
of  the  Director  of  the  Singers  in  the 
face  of  the  fact  that  Dr.  Harper  has 
been  out  of  the  country  for  some 
months.  You  may  attribute  any 
deficiencies  in  the  organisation  of  the 
dinner  this  year  to  the  fact  that  the 
work  is  being  performed  by  volun- 
teers, such  as  the  undersigned,  who 
are  working  to  preserve  a  campus 
tradition  of  which  many  people  have 
become  fond  and  where  generates  a 
very  positive  impression  in  the 
community. 

6.  The  Student  Senate  has  no 
investment  in  the  Dickens  Dinner  per 
se.  The  Senate  budgets  the  Singers, 
but  it  does  not  budget  catering  nor 


Certainly,  it  would  be  good  if 
more  people  could  attend  the  Dickens 
Dinner.  The  problem  is  that  the 
'break-even  point'  is  at  100  per  cent  of 
capacity:  every  seat  must  be  filled, 
every  meal  must  be  paid  for.  The 
expansion  of  the  dinners  so  that  1050 
tickets  were  offered  (rather  than  the 
current  700)  would  involve  a  financial 
risk.  Would  the  Student  Senate  be 
prepared  to  underwrite  this  risk?  I 
hope  so.  After  all  the  flack  we  get 
about  'Hippie  Heaven'  and  'Mari- 
juana Tech'  we  certainly  need  to 
encourage  those  organisations  which 
show  the  public  a  truer,  more 
attractive,  aspect  of  our  campus 
community.

Doctor's  Bag 

By  ARNOLD  WERNER,  M.D. 

QUESTION :  This  summer  a  half  dozen  of  us  hitch  hiked  to 
the  Rocky  Mountains  to  spend  some  time  camping.  One  of 
our  group  started  a  rumor  that  had  the  girls  freaked  out  and 
the  fellows  reluctant  to  camp  near  the  women.  She 
maintained  that  bears  are  attracted  to  women  during  their 
menstrual  period  and  in  more  than  just  an  amorous  fashion. 
We  knew  enough  to  hang  our  food  up  high  and  away  from 
camp,  but  with  all  the  stuff  about  women's  liberation,  it 
seemed  unrealistic  to  expect  the  women  to  put  up  with 
similar  treatment.  Was  there  a  real  need  for  caution  and 
what  could  we  have  done  about  it? 

ANSWER:  The  longer  I  write  this  column  the  more  I 
become  convinced  that  the  questions  are  actually  much 
better  than  the  answers.  This  particular  concern  sent  me 
scrambling  for  some  data  which  turned  out  to  be  hard  to 
come  by.  One  summer  in  the  late  1960's  two  women 
backpacking  in  Glacier  National  Park  were  attacked  by  a 
grizzly  bear.  One  of  the  women  was  menstruating  at  the 
time.  The  wildlife  expert  I  spoke  with  confirmed  this  story 
and  recalled  hearing  one  or  two  other  similar  reports. 
Needless  to  say,  the  fact  that  the  women  were  menstruating 
and  were  subsequently  attacked  by  the  bear  does  not 
necessarily  indicate  a  causal  relationship,  it  easily  could 
have  been  a  coincidence.  As  well,  the  bear  might  have  been 
attracted  by  bacon  or  other  odoriferous  food  stuffs,  a  more 
likely  occurance  when  the  natural  food  supply  for  animals 

Grizzly  bears  are  known  to  attack  even  though 
apparently  unprovoked  but  the  more  usual  black  bear  found 
in  many  parts  of  this  country  does  not  usually  attack  unless 
bothered.  Getting  between  a  bear  and  its  cubs  constitutes 
being  bothered. 

Attacks  by  animals  on  campers,  including  back 
packers,  are  extraordinarily  rare.  On  this  basis  alone,  it 
would  seem  there  was  little  source  for  concern.  Camping  in 
the  more  populous  parts  of  the  country  would  give  little 
reason  for  concern,  the  greater  threat  to  tranquility  coming 
from  other  campers.  I  cannot  give  you  absolute 
reassurance  on  the  behavior  of  grizzlies  in  the  Rocky 
Mountains. 


QUESTION:  My  husband  is  a  graduate  student  who  has  just 
been  awarded  a  minor  but  significant  honor.  He  is  pleased 
and  proud  and  I  am  trying  to  think  of  a  surprise  celebration, 
but  my  husband  doesn't  like  to  celebrate  anything-birth- 
days,  Christmas,  weddings,  graduations,  anything. 

Why  is  it  that  some  men  are  simply  unable  to  loosen  up 
and  enjoy  being  fussed  over,  or  enjoy  making  a  fuss  over 
someone  else?  It  is  frustrating  to  be  so  excited  for  my 
husband  and  yet  to  know  that  a  gift,  part  or  a  dinner  out 
would  meet  with  polite  indifference. 

ANSWER:  This  is  a  complex  problem.  Some  people,  and  it 
seems  to  be  men  more  often  than  women,  have  been 
brought  up  to  believe  that  the  expression  of  feelings,  happy 
ones  as  well  as  sad  ones,  is  generally  unacceptable.  Such 
people  are  made  very  uncomfortable  by  attention  or 
recognition  which  would  call  forth  from  them  some 
expression  of  appreciation.  On  the  other  hand,  tremendous 
uncertainty  about  one's  own  abilities  can  result  in 
significant  feelings  of  discomfort  every  time  a  success 
Occurs.  Since  such  people  might  not  feel  they  deserve 
success,  any  fuss  made  over  them  just  increases  their 
discomfort.  In  the  statement  about  your  husband  being 
proud  of  his  accomplishment  this  certainly  does  not  appear 
to  be  the  case. 

I  have  seen  it  happen  that  such  an  incredible  fuss  is 
made  over  all  events,  be  they  anniversaries  or 
accomplishments,  that  all  but  the  most  vain  would  be 
acutely  embarrassed.  A  few  such  occurances  can  easily 
condition  a  person  to  prefer  a  private  sense  of  self 
fulfillment  rather  than  other  people's  overexuberance. 
Rather  than  take  responsibility  for  making  a  fuss  over  your 
husband,  you  might  try  giving  him  an  opportunity  to  plan 
with  you  in  doing  something  special  you  both  enjoy  as  a 
private  and  personal  celebration.

THE  CONTINUING  SAGA  OF  CHARLIE  O. 

The  Oakland  A's  have  annexed  two  straight  world  championships. 
Their  owner  is  Charlie  0.  Finley.  affectionately  known  as  "Charlie  the 

Thus  you  might  deduce  that  Finley  is  a  great  sports  mastermind.  But 
some  say  that  the  Athletics  did  the  job  in  spite  of  Mr.  Finley.  Let's  take  a 
brief   closer  look  at  this  millionaire  from  La  Porte,  Indiana. 

He  is  the  owner  of  the  Memphis  Tarns  of  the  ABA.  The  Tarns  for 
several  years  have  been  the  worst  team  in  the  league,  both 
performance-wise  and  financially. 

He  is  the  owner  of  the  California  Golden  Seals  of  the  NHL.  The  Seals 
are  in  the  same  boat  as  the  ABA  Tarns,  and  NHL  owners  are  trying  to  buy 
out  the  west  coast  franchise  from  Mr.  Finley  before  he  does  any  more 
bungling.  

He  also  was  owner  of  the  Columbus  Seals  of  the  International  Hockey 
League.  The  team  did  so  badly  that  Finley  decided  to  get  out.  Thank  God, 
because  one  more  year  of  his  rule  could  well  have  resulted  in  the  severe 
financial  crippling  of  the  entire  league. 

Incidentally,  this  year  under  new  leadership  the  Seals  are  recovering 

Charlie,  why  dont  you  set  up  your  empire  somewhere  else?  Like,  say, 
Juneau,  Alaska,  for  example. 

VETERAN  QBS  FINALLY  GIVEN  A  CHANCE 

For  years  veteran  quarterbacks  John  Hadl  and  Charley  Johnson 
toiled  in  the  far  background  of  Johnny  Unitas,  Joe  Namath,  and 
Company.  They  put  the  tallies  on  the  board  for  their  losing  clubs,  but 
always  seemed  to  come  out  on  the  short  end  of  something  like  a  45-30 

The  offense  was  there  but  the  recognition  was  not.  Hadl  endured 
many  a  losing,  frustrating  season  with  the  defense-less  San  Diego 
Chargers.  And  Johnson  worked  fulilely  for  eons  with  the  hapless  Houston 

But  in  1973  both  professionals  have  at  last  been  given  the  chance  to 
prove  their  worth  while  playing  for  real  winners. 

The  results  are  fast  coming  in :  Hadl  is  currently  the  leading  passer  in 
the  NFL  and  has  led  the  Los  Angeles  Rams  to  a  powerful  10-2  mark.  He 
has  lifted  the  Rams  into  serious  contention  for  the  Super  Bowl. 

Johnson  has  been  the  key  factor  in  Denver's  rise  into  contention  in  the 
AFC  West  Division.  He  must  have  had  to  look  up  such  terms  as  "win," 
"victory,"  "cheer,"  and  "stardom"  before  the  season  started,  as  those 
words  were  unknown  in  Houston,  Texas, 

INDIANAPOLIS  NOT  ALL  THAT  BAD 

For  the  past  several  years  Indianapolis  has  been  considered  as  a 
possible  site  for  major  league  baseball,  football  and  hockey  franchises. 
However,  interested  parties  have  always  shied  away  from  Indy  because 
of  its  lack  of  past  success  in  minor  league  classifications. 

But  one  major  league  sports  team,  the  Indiana  Pacers  of  the 
American  Basketball  Association,  has  tested  the  Indiana  city  and  has 
found  a  home, 

The  Pacers  have  won  the  ABA  championship  in  three  of  the  last  four 
years.  At  times  during  that  span  the  Pacers  looked  like  anything  but  a 
champion  team.  But  the  fans  have  always  turned  out  in  capacity  numbers 
at  the  Indiana  State  Fairgrounds  to  support  their  major  league  basketball 

This  year,  through  the  first  30  contests,  the  Pacers  have  been  just  a 
.500  club.  Yet  whenever  they  battle  ABA  foes  at  home,  the  attendance 
rarely  dips  below  the  9,000  mark. 

VACATION  WISHES 

Here's  hoping  that  all  Indiana-Purdue  students  have  a  long  and 
satisfying  vacation  period.  Inevitably  the  energy  crisis  will  be  on 
everyone's  mind,  but  hopefully  the  situation  will  improve  as  the  new  year 
sets  in.  At  any  rate,  if  you've  got  the  gas,  drive  carefully. 

As  you  celebrate  the  season  give  a  little  thought  to  the  families  of  the 
hundreds  of  men  still  unaccounted  for  in  Southeast  Asia.  And  pray  that 
Golda  and  the  Arabs  find  the  true  meaning  and  bliss  of  peace.

IU-PU  rally  falls  short 

Indiana-Purdue  played  one  of 
their  usual  flat  first  halves  and  fell 
short  in  a  spirited  second  half  rally  as 
they  were  defeated  by  Northwood 
Institute,  106-81  in  a  college  basket- 
ball game  Thursday  night  at  the 
Concordia   Senior  College  gymnas- 

Northwood  took  advantage  of  the 
Mastodon  cold  first  half  by  going  to 
the  boards  and  scoring  on  many 
offensive  rebounds.  The  Mastodon 
guards,  Dean  Putt,  Gary  Daub,  and 
Gary  Trump  did  most  of  the  first  half 
scoring,  as  the  Mastodons  fell  behind 
by  21  at  the  intermission. 

Northwood  took  an  early  12-6 
lead,  and  used  their  offensive 
rebounds  strength  and  a  good 
shooting  percentage  to  extend  their 
lead  to  24-9.  Indiana-Purdue  came 
back  behind  the  fabulous  shooting  of 
guards  Trump  and  Putt  to  narrow  the 
deficit  to  10  points,  but  with  the  score 
33-23,  the  Northwood  five  again  hit  a 
hot  streak  as  forwards  Weeks  and 
Weber  scored  consistently  from  short 
range.  The  Mastodons  went  cold, 
throwing  the  ball  away  and  making 
other  miscues  that  benefited  the 
opposition.  The  half  time  score  ended 
at  56-35. 

Indiana-Purdue  came  out  strong 
in  the  second  half  and  nearly  hustled 
the  visitors  out  of  the  gym.  Captains 
Rex  Putt  and  Gary  Trump  ignited  a 
torrid  fast  break  that  along  with  a 
rugged  full  court  man  to  man  press 
brought  the  Mastodons  back  into 
contention.  Dean  Putt  continued  to 
score,  and  forwards  Grussing,  Gray 
and  Peterson  all  contributed  to  the 
rally  that  was  a  reversal  of  the  first 
half  play.  The  Northwood  lead  was 
cut  down  to  10  points  at  one  time,  and 
still  didn't  look  secure  when  the 
Mastodon's  leading  scorer,  Rex  Putt, 
fouled  out  with  over  five  minutes  to 
go. 

Northwood  led  by  15  with  a  little 
over  four  minutes  left  to  play,  so  with 
little  hope  of  a  victory  Coach 
Wehrmeister  sent  in  a  new  squad  to 
finish  it  up.

Forward  Hex  Putt  shook  off  a  bad 
first  half  with  10  second  half  points 
and  Gary  Gray  added  9.

Members  of  the  team  of  judges 
were  Terry  Kundysek,  Rollie  Clem- 
ents, Jerry  Hetrick,  Gary  Trump,  Dr 
Jack  Kirby,  Dr.  Edwin  Leonard,  and 
Dr.  Judy  Kamnikar. 

Alice  Thomas,  a  sophomore,  will 
serve  as  captain  of  the  squad.  "I  hope 
we  can  get  as  much  participation  as 
passible  from  the  students  and  faculty 
at  the  games,"  she  commented. 

The  squad  will  cheer  at  all  IU-PU 
gasketball  games,  both  home  and 
away.  Plans  also  indicate  that  the 
girls  will  be  at  soccer  and  baseball 
games.  They  are  being  advised  by 
Judy  Kamnikar. 

Georgia  Ward,  assistant  squad 
captain,  is  a  sophomore  majoring  in 
nursing.  She  stated,  "It  would  be 
great  if  the  students  at  IU-PU  could 
get    out    there    and    support    their 

Both  Char  Snearing,  a  senior 
majoring  in  art  education,  and  Pam 
Craig,  a  junior  in  Germanic  lan- 
guages, also  expressed  hopes  of 
increased  student  support  at  games. 
"Most  people  have  never  been  to  a 
gameand  the  team  does  need  backing 
from  the  student  body,"  said  Char. 

Pam  called  for  student  attend- 
ance at  the  games,  "Let's  all  get  out 
there  and  show  them  we're  backing 

To  generate  more  spirit  and 
support  for  the  athletic  teams,  the 
squad  hopes  to  form  a  booster  club. 
Students  who  might  be  interested  are 
asked  to  leave  their  names  at  the 
Student  Services  office  or  at  the 
athletic  office  in  the  Student  Union. 


Mastodons  score  100,  lose 

The  Indiana-Purdue  Mastodons 
performed  very  well  as  thev  rebound- 
ed from  an  early  20-point  deficit,  but 
still  lost  114-110  as  they  ran  into  foul 
trouble  against  a  rugged  squad  from 
Spring  Arbor  in  a  Saturday  night 
game  at  the  Central  gym. 

Highly-favored  Spring  Arbor  had 
taken  a  quick  20-2  lead  early  in  the 
game,  but  a  tenacious  offensive  rally 
led  by  leading  Mastodon  scorer  Rex 
Putt,  and  a  spirited  defense  which 
forced  Spring  Arbor  to  turn  the  ball 
over  time  after  time  closed  the  gap 
and  turned  the  premature  run-away 
victory  into  a  barn-burner.  The 
Mastodon  squad  was  loudly  cheered 
throughout  the  game  by  a  sizeable 
crowd  in  their  first  home  game  of  the 
season.  An  all-male  cheering  section 
added  an  additional  inspiration  to  the 

Spring  Arbor  brought  their  own 
cheering  section  along  and  acted  as 
though  they  were  going  to  blow  the 
hosts  out  of  the  gym  as  they  put  20 
quick  points  on  the  board  while  the 
Mastodons  could  only  manage  one 
bucket.  Indiana-Purdue  called  time 
out  with  over  15  minutes  to  go  in  the 
half,  but  still  couldn't  get  the  offense 
together.  They  fell  down  by  as  much 
as  28-6  before  they  finally  decided  to 

Captains  Rex  Putt  and  Gary 
Trump  took  charge  and  helped  the 
Mastodons  to  gain  on  the  visitors. 
Trump,  who  only  stands  5'9",  but  was 
moved  to  forward  by  Coach  Wehr- 
meister because  of  his  outstanding 
jumping  ability,  made  several  key 
plays  that  brought  the  Mastodons 
within  13  at  40-27  with  nearly  five 
minutes  remaining  in  the  hall.  The 
rest  of  the  half  was  all  Indiana- 
Purdue  as  they  outscored  the  visitors 
vith  Rex  Putt  netting  nearly 


second  half,  but  forwards  Rex  Putt 
and  Keith  Mendenhall  (who  at  5'10" 
was  playing  forward  for  about  the 
first  time  since  elementary  school) 
led  a  tremendous  surge  by  the 
Mastodons  that  gained  them  a  65-64 
lead  with  about  14  minutes  left  on  the 
clock.  The  lead  switched  hands 
throughout  the  sixties  and  into  the 
seventies  until  leading  Mastodon 
scorer  Rex  Putt  was  saddled  with  his 
fourth  foul.  All  four  Mastodon  big  men 
were  in  foul  trouble,  so  even  though 
Keith  Mendenhall,  the  blond  bomber 
for  the  Mastodons,  attempted  to  keep 
them  in  the  game  with  long  arching 
shots  and  accurate  free  throw 
shooting,  the  Spring  Arbor  heighth 
advantage  was  too  much. 

All  four  Mastodon  big  men  ended 
up  fouling  out,  and  the  visitors 
coasled  in  with  a  victory,  scoring  over 
half  of  their  final  20  points  from  the 
charity  stripe. 

Rex  Putt's  32  points  was  one  of 
the  seasonal  highs  in  the  city  this 
year,  while  Keith  Mendenhall,  a 
former  Woodlan  High  School  stand- 
out, who  only  had  a  four-point 
average  going  into  the  game,  netted 
20  points.  Gary  Trump  performed 
well  at  his  forward  post  with  13  points, 
and  freshman  standouts  Dean  Putt 
and  Gary  Daub,  who  led  the  effective 
full  court  man-to-man  defense  that 
forced  Spring  Arbor  into  numerous 
turnovers,  added  10  points  apiece. 

Tom  Wilson  led  a  balance  scoring 
attack  for  the  winners  with  20  points. 
Rhew  and  Kinnear  contributed  19  and 
18,  while  Gray,  Siefert  and  Klinger 
scored  16,  15,  and  10  respectively. 

The  win  brought  Spring  Arbor's 
record  to  5-2,  while  the  Mastodons  lost 
for  the  eighth  time  in  nine  outings  this 


boards.  Gary  Trump  and  Dean  Putt 

also  contributed  to  the  brief  comback 
with  several  steals  and  baskets  from 
long  range. 


lead^  but  the  inspired  Mastodons 
battled  back  again  with  a  pressuring 
defense  and  came  within  7  at  80-73  and 
again  at  82-75.  But  they  got  no  closer 
as  St.  Francis  began  to  use  their  big 
man  effectively,  and  as  sparkplug 
Charles  King  hit  from  outside.  The 
Mastodons  threatened  many  times 
thereafter,  but  each  time  St.  Francis 
was  able  to  regain  their  secure  lead. 
Despite  the  loss,  the  Mastodons 
scored  well;  Rex  Putt  scored  27  and 
raised  his  average  to  17.8,  while  Dave 


drives.  Dean  Putt  added  17,  and  Gary 
Trump,  Keith  Mendenhall,  and  Gary 
Daub  all  hit  double  figures  with  14,  14, 
and  10  points. 

St.  Francis  improved  its  record  to 
3-6,  while  the  luckless  Mastodons 
dropped  to  1-9. 


Mastodons  score  108,  lose 

St.  Francis  took  an  early  first-half 
lead  and  then  held  off  an  Indiana- 
Purdue  rally  to  defeat  the  Mastodons 
in  a  grueling  offensive  battle  120-108 
Tuesday  night  at  the  Central  Catholic 
gym.  It  was  the  second  battle  of  the 
year  for  these  two  teams,  and  St. 
Francis  won  both  by  the  same 
margin. 

An  early  hot  hand  by  big 
Troubadour  Chuck  James,  who 
scored  25  points  before  fouling  out 
early  in  the  second  half,  helped  St. 
Francis  to  jump  into  the  lead  by  as 
much  as  21  points  in  the  first  half. 
Guard  Charles  King  and  6'8"  Mike 
Jensen  look  hold  where  James  left  off 
as  they  scored  30  and  20  points 
respectively. 

St.  Francis  scored  first  on  a  field 
goal  by  James,  and  they  never  trailed 
in  the  game.  The  Mastodons  got  off  to 
a  slow  start  and  the  Troubadours 
nearly  ran  them  out  of  the  gym  with 
amazing  shooting  from  all  over  the 
floor.  The  Mastodons  scored  a 
respectable  50  first-half  points,  but 
their  opponents  had  an  incredible  66 
points  at  intermission. 

In  the  second  half  the  Mastodons 
came  out  fighting,  getting  the  tip  and 
scoring  quickly.  The  lead  was  soon 
cut  down  to  10  with  the  score  70-60. 
The  rally  was  led  by  the  two  big  men 
for  the  Mastodons,  Dave  Peterson  and 
Rex  Putt,  Peterson  scored  consistent- 
ly on  beautiful  baseline  drives,  while 
Putt  was   strong   on   the   offensive 

Pigskin  title 
to  Stonef  ace 

Last  Sunday  Stoneface  proved  to 
be  the  toughest  team  as  they 
embarrassed  Smith  28-0  to  take  the 
intramural  football  championship  for 
the  second  straight  year.  The 
relatively  easy  victory  climaxed  an 
undefeated  season  for  Stoneface. 

On  the  first  punt  of  the  game, 
Steve  Ottenweller  twisted  through  the 
Smith  coverage  to  open  the  scoring 
barrage.  It  was  the  first  of  two 
touchdowns  scored  by  the  speedy 
defensive  safety. 

Stoneface's  second  tally,  this  ( 

Jon  Werli 
lit 1 1  spirit  . 
t  of  reach. 

Ottenweller's  second  score  and 
another  touchdown  by  Werli  just 
added  insult  to  injury  as  the  Stoneface 
defense  posted  the  shutout.  John 
Jaquay  and  Tom  Dunlap  added  the 
extra  points  to  cap  the  scoring. 

The  shutout  was  the  first  against 
Smith  all  season,  while  the  28  points 
by  the  Stoneface  offense  was  twice  as 
great  as  the  previous  high  allowed  by 
the  Smith  defense  in  a  single  game. 


A  Spring  Arbor  eager  hits  for  a  crucial  bucket  as  Mastodon 
Rex  Putt  watches  helplessly.  Spring  Arbor  was  on  top  at

December  is  a  special  month  for  sports  writers  because  it  gives  us  a 
chance  to  choose  our  "Sportsman  of  the  Year"  for  1973.  Last  year  it  was 
Mark  Spitz,  and  this  year  again  the  coveted  award  will  go  to  an  athlete 
who  excelled  in  his-her  particular  sporl. 

Is  it  Hammerin'  Hank  Aaron?  Not  this  year,  Atlanta  fans.  Although 
Hank  battled  pitchers  and  pressure  tu  come  within  one  home  run  of  Babe 
Ruth's  so  far  insurmountable  714,  he  just  didn't  quite  make  it.  And  that's 
what  counts-tliis  year. 

If  it  isn't  Aaron,  then  it  must  be  Billie  Jean  King,  the  "king"  of 
women's  tennis.  Not  only  has  Billie  Jean  dominated  the  women's  circuit, 
but  she  has  proved  victorious  in  the  senior  men's  league  with  her  victory 
over  Bobby  Riggs.  In  the  "Battle  of  the  Sexes"  King  handily  defeated  the 
55-year-old  self-proclaimed  male  chauvinist  pig  in  straight  sets.  But  the 
award  winner  isn't  Billie  Jean. 

Who  else  could  it  be,  then?  Why,  of  course,  O.J.  Simpson,  the 
superstar  of  the  Buffalo  Bills,  who  will  break  Jimmy  Brown's  rushing 
record  of  1863  yards  this  week.  O.J.  has  really  been  impressive  this  year, 
as  he  will  need  only  61  yards  to  break  the  mark.  The  ex-USC  star  also 
broke  the  record  for  most  yards  compiled  in  a  single  game  with  about  250 
earlier  in  the  season.  But  Simpson  is  only  the  runner-up  this  year. 

The  star  of  pro  basketball  had  to  be  Willis  Reed  of  the  Knicks. 
Although  Willis  wasn't  the  top  rebounder  or  top  scorer,  it  was  just  his 
presence  which  brought  the  NBA  championship  back  to  New  York.  But 
Willis  isnt  number  one  either. 

That  leave  only  one  superstar  left,  right? --George  Foreman. 
Foreman,  the  1968  Olympic  boxing  champion,  totally  demolished  Joe 
Frazier  in  the  second  round  to  become  the  current  heavy-weight 
champion  of  the  world.  The  only  problem  with  Foreman  now  is  that  he" 
hasn't  defended  his  title  against  any  "name"  fighters,  so  that  one  night's 
work  won't  bring  him  the  top  award  for  1973. 

So,  my  pick  for  the  1973  "Sportsman  of  the  Year"  award  is  none  other 
than  Bill  Walton,  the  6'11"  center  of  the  UCLA  Bruins.  Why  Walton?  I 
really  never  got  to  see  Walton  in  action  on  a  regular  basis,  but  from  what 
I  saw,  he  was  intimidating. 

There  was  a  rumor  going  around  that  Walton  was  the  reason  UCLA 
wins  all  the  time.  Last  year's  undefeated  season  and  a  string  of  over  70 
consecutive  victories  might  be  considered  excellent  proof. 

The  clincher  concerning  Walton's  ability  came  in  the  championship 
game  against  Memphis  State  in  late  April.  The  Bruin  guards  had  only  to 
flip  the  ball  anywhere  within  his  reach  and  it  was  a  sure  basket. 
Defensively,  Big  Bill  cuffed  shots  and  rebounded  so  well  that  he  was 
name  college  "Player  of  the  Year"  in  basketball.  Quite  an  athlete  and 
quite  a  basketball  player. 


Since  this  is  the  last  issue  until  next  semester,  here  a 
predictions  for  the  Christmas  break: 

Notre  Dame  over  Alabama  by  3  in  the  Sugar  Bowl 

USC  over  Ohio  State  by  10  in  the  Rose  Bowl 

Minnesota  to  take  the  NFC  championship 

Pittsburgh  to  take  the  AFC  title 

Big  Upset: 

In  basketball.  North  Carolina  State  over  UCLA  by  1
