Elmhurst  Advance 

Gain  experience 

Workshops  aid  students 


Summer  workshops  pertaining  to 
individual  interests  dominated  sev- 
eral student's  summer  activities. 

Juniors  Barb  Nowak,  Pam  Mc- 
[\  ibbeii,  Janet  Bell,  Bill  Watson, 
Wendy  Bradtmiller  and  Phil  Hersh- 
herger  attended  journaHam  work- 
sliops  July  23  through  29  at  Ball 
State  Univei-sity, 

"The  classes  were  divided  into 
majors  and  minora,"  stated  Janet, 
"We  had  our  majors  in  the  morning 
iind  night  for  three  hours.  The 
minors  were  held  in  the  afternoon 
for  two  hours  and  were  changed 
every  three  days." 
Workshop  courses  vary 

Among  the  courses  offered  at 
Hall  State  were  makeup  and  design, 


What? 


news  writing,  public  relations,  fea- 
ture writing,  financial  management 
and  indepth  reporting, 

Wendy  and  Barb  received  top  hon- 
ors certificate.=^.  These  were  awarded 
to  the  top  people  in  the  major  class- 
es. 

Senior  Jayne  Langmeyer  took  part 
in  a  five  week  journalism  workshop 
at  Northwestern  University,  Evans- 
ton,  Illinois. 

"There  were  86  kids  from  all  over 
the  United  States.  We  had  a  story  a 
day  on  the  average  and  they  were 
critiqued  by  ten  counselors,"  she 
stated. 
Field  trips  add  interest 

"Skits  were  presented  on  situ- 
ations that  could  create  a  libelous 
story.  We  had  to  choose  the  accept- 
able facts  for  the  story.  There  were 
also  speakers  from  the  University 
which  we  had  to  cover." 


The  journalists  also  took  field  trips 
which  were  also  required  to  be  cov- 
ered, "We  saw  a  Cubs  baseball  game 
and  the  Museum  of  Science  and  In- 
dustry," Jayne  said.  Also,  we  went 
to  Lambs!  Farm  for  retarded  people 
age  18  to  45.  The  people  worked 
in  their  own  drug  store  and  rest- 
aurant and  took  care  of  the  animals 
on  the  farm.  It  was  really  inter- 
esting."' 

"Classes  were  held  everyday  ex- 
cept Wednesdays,,  which  were  used 
for  field  trips.  Weekends  we  had  off 
except  Sunday  nights  when  We  had 
a  1000  word  composition  written  in 
journalistic  style  due  at  midnight," 
she  stated, 
Y-Teen  members  participate 

Juniors  Barb  Abbott,  Julie  Lang- 
nieyer  and  senior  Nancy  Wolfe  at- 
tended tht:  Indiana  Y-Teens  Summer 


Conference  the  week  of  June  H  at 
Epworth  Forest,  NorUi  Webster. 

"It  was  really  cool  and  I  learned 
a  lot  about  people,"  commented 
Julie.  "The  theme  of  the  conference 
was  racism  and  its  elimination.  In 
all  our  discussions  we  brought  out 
our  racism  attitudes  and  how  to 
eliminate  these  attitudes  within  our- 
selves." 

"At  the  end  of  the  week  the  whole 
congregation  of  Y-Teens  boycotted 
the  cafeteria  because  of  some  racist 
acts  that  had  occured,  I  was  really 
disturbed  by  the  fact  that  such  racist 
acts  occured  in  a  church  oriented 
institute,"  she  explained. 

Sophomore  Patty  Gay  attended  a 
speech  and  debate  workshop  at 
Manchester  College,  North  Man- 
chester. She  received  a  first  place 
honor  in  the  sub-varsity  division  in 
debate.

German  youth  arrives 
for  exchange  program 


Claudia  Weiss,  Weinheim,  Ger- 
many, is  participating  in  the  Amer- 
ican Field  Ser\Mce  exchange  student 
program.  She  will  be  at  Elmhurst 
for  11  months,  and  is  staying  with 
senior  Sally  Cline. 

Claudia  applied  with  the  American 
Field  Service  a  year  ago.  "In  Dec- 
ember I  was  glad  that  I  had  been 


European  trips  highlight  summer 


Senior  Sue  Quance  partici- 
pated in  The  Experiment  in  In- 
ternational Living  this  sum- 
mer, spending  June  29  through 
.\ugust  16  with  a  Swiss  family 
and  traveling  throughout  the 
Switzerland  area. 

A  t\vo  week  language  course  be- 
?an  Sue's  trip,  which  was  taken 
in  Putney,  Vt.  "There  I  met  the 
"■leven  people  I'd  be  traveling  with," 


Sue  explained.  "We  studied  oral 
French  for  seven  hours  a  day  with 
native  speakers.  We  also  bad  group 
meetings  getting  acquainted  with 
the  other  kids  from  all  over  Amer- 
ica. That  was  a  great  experience  in 
itself  before  we  even  left  the  coun- 
try." 

"It  was  incredible  to  me  flying 
over  the  Alps,  France  and  Italy, 
We  stayed  one  night  in  Milan,  Italy, 
then  took  a  beautiful  train  ride 
through  the  Alps  up  to  Lausanne, 
Switzerland,"  Sue  said. 


Never  having  seen  a  mountain 
before.  Sue  was  impressed  by  the 
Alps.  "The  entire  train  ride  found 
me  hanging  out  the  window  staring 
in  awe,"  she  said. 

"Switzerland  is  on  such  a  small 
scale,"  Sue  explained.  "You  can 
travel  just  a  short  distance  and  be 
in  a  different  country  and  not  under- 
stand the  language." 

"Their  old  chalets  are  very  well 
kept,"  Sue  said.  "Switzerland  is  a 
modem  country.  It's  highly  indus- 


Girls  learn  process 
of  political  operations 


by  Nancy  Wolfe 

Seniors  Betty  Hart,  Sue  Mar- 
key  and  Nancy  Ostrognai  rep- 
resented Elmhurst  at  Hoosier 
Girls'  State  in  Indianapolis  this 
summer. 

During  the  week  of  June  25,  the 
ffirls  studied  government  functions 
by  establishing  cities  and  holding 
elections. 

"While  we  were  there  we  had  sev- 
f-ral  elections  and  campaigns,"  said 
rietty.  "I  ran  for  State  Senator  and 
lost.  Mainly  we  followed  the  same 
exact  procedures  as  in  a  regular 
election.  We  campaigned  and  talked 
to  many  delegates.  I  also  worked 
the  polls  as  a  judge  to  certify  that 
ihe  ballots  had  been  folded  pro- 
perly." 
Girls  hold  elections 

Two  days  were  allotted  for  the 
girls  to  have  elections  in  their  own 
cities.  Betty  explained,  "My  position 
was  as  a  local  banker  and  the  city 


treasurer.  Our  city  even  had  a  cou- 
ple of  murders  so  we  had  to  have  a 
mock  trial.  There  were  even  two 
mafias  among  the  cities." 

Nancy  held  several  offices.  "I  was 
vice  precinct  committeeman,  so  I 
voted  for  county  board  members. 
That  enabled  me  to  be  a  delegate  in 
the  primary  when  we  elected  a 
governor  for  my  party.  Our  party 
was  the  Nationalists,  the  other  was 
the  Federalists." 

"I  also  was  a  senator,  which  %vas 
headed  by  Mrs.  Birch  Bayh.  A  friend 
and  I  wrote  a  bill  pertaining  to 
drugs.  It  proposed  setting  up  state 
wide  addiction  centers,  broadening 
of  drug  education  and  legalizing 
marijuana.  It  was  too  bad  though. 
We  didn't  make  it  in  time  to  have  it 
entered,"  Nancy  said.  Nancy  also 
ser\'ed  as  sex  education  teacher  for 
her  city,  Cahill. 
Senate  proves  interesting 

Sue  felt  she  better  learned  the 
operations  of  the  government  and 
politics,  "Most  interesting  was  the 


Senate  and  the  House  because  we 
watched  them  argue  and  vote  and 
get  down  to  the  nitty  gritty,"  Sue 
said, 

"There  wasn't  any  difference  in 
the  two  parties  except  they  had 
different  candidates.  When  we  voted 
for  governor,  there  were  so  many 
candidates  it  took  our  convention  a 
very  long  time  to  narrow  it  down," 

"At  first  I  didn't  want  to  go," 
Sue  continued.  "There  wag  a  long 
list  of  rules  and  it  sounded  like  they 
were  forcing  you  to  be  active.  It 
was  different  when  we  arrived 
though,  because  we  made  so  many 
new  friends," 

"Everyone  had  really  strong  feel- 
ings of  patriotism,"  said  Nancy. 
"The  most  important  thing  for  me 
was  I  discovered  what  America 
really  is.  It's  not  the  flag  or  the 
government,  it's  the  people.  Every- 
one at  Girl's  State  was  just  beau- 
tiful. It  made  me  proud  to  know 
there  are  such  fine  people  in  Ind- 
iana," she  concluded. 


trialized.    Even    the    farmers    have 
modem  conveniences," 

"Wlien  I  first  met  my  family  I 
was  very  nervous  because  my  family 
spoke  only  French  and  I  didn't  know 
what  to  expect,"  Sue  said. 

"I  had  two  older  brothers,  grand- 
parents, a  great  aunt,  and  wonder- 
ful parents.  I  lived  just  outside  a 
tiny  village  on  a  beautiful  old  farm," 
Sue  explained.  "My  family  raised 
wheut,  sugar  beets,  tobacco,  dairy 
cows,  pigs  for  meat,  rabbits  and  a 
big  garden  for  fruits  and  vege- 
tables." 

"I  fit  in  well  with  my  family," 
Sue  said.  "The  first  full  day  I  was 
hoeing    in   the  beet  field  with  my 
brother." 
Senior  participating  in  chores 

"I  rode  and  drove  the  tractor 
most  of  the  summer,  along  with  bail- 
ing hay,  hanging  clothes,  picking 
and  hanging  tobacco,  raking  hay 
and  drying  dishes,"    Sue  said. 

"I  caught  a  cold  hiking  through 
the  Alps,"  Sue  stated.  "My  grand- 
mother made  a  green  liquid  for  me 
to  gargle  with.  It  tasted  like  a  juice 
from  green  beans," 

Sue  not  only  stayed  witli  her 
family,  but  for  13  days  she  also 
traveled  the  Switzerland  area  -with 
other  Americans  and  members  of 
their  families.  "We  stayed  in  three 
different  cities  and  visited  many 
others.  The  towns  were  deep  in  the 
Alps,  and  we  did  a  lot  of  hiking." 
Mountains  aren't  gimmicks 

"The  cows,  flowers,  flowing 
streams  down  green  mountains  and 
all  the  other  beautiful  things  aren't 
just  tourists  gimmicks.  They  really 
are  a  part  of  Switzerland,"  Sue 
said. 

"It  was  really  hard  to  leave  my 
family  and  the  Swiss  friends  I  made, 
the  people  I  got  close  to.  I  went  over 
with  an  open  mind.  I'm  glad  I  did, 
I  couldn't  ask  for  anything  greaterl" 


accepted  by  the  AFS  in  Heidelberg 
and  then  later  by  the  one  in  Ham- 
burg. In  June  I  wag  accepted  by  the 
AFS  in  New  York." 

"I  applied  with  the  hope  of  get- 
ting to  know  foreigneiTs  and  their 
ideas.  I  think  it's  good  to  learn  new 
view  points,"  she  said. 
Student  returns  to  United  States 

Two  vears  ago  Claudia  visited 
New  York,  so  "it  wasn't  strange 
for  me  lis  it  was  for  the  other  fore- 
ign students.  My  first  impression 
was  about  APS  though.  Everyone 
was  so  tired  and  the  people  just 
really  tried  to  make  us  comfort- 
able," she  explained.  ' 

We  tLayed  at  Post  College  two 
days.  Tliere  were  1000  students  from 
20  nati(  ns  and  it  was  so  interesting. 
The  South  Americans  and  their  ways 
of  expressing  ideas  were  so  dif- 
ferent. It  was  fun  to  get  to  know 
others  and  I  was  very  impressed." 

Claudia  feels  that  her  town  and 
Fort  Wayne  are  very  different. 
"Fort  V.'ayne  is  much  bigger  since 
I  come  from  a  town  of  only  30,000. 


Weinlieim  is  very  near  to  Heidlberg 
which  is  a  big  town,"  she  said,  I 
feel  it  is  a  good  decision  to  live 
there.  There  are  good  concerts  and 
theaters  but  there  is  also  a  lovely 
country-side.  I  thinks  it's  just  right 
to  live  in  a  little  town  near  a  big 
city,"  she  continued, 
PresB  coTers  students 

"I  was  so  tired  when  I  got  here 
that  I  just  slept  and  slept,"  Claudia 
said.  The  AFS  had  a  picnic  for  all 
the  foreign  exchange  students.  A 
man  came  to  take  pictures  for  the 
press.  He  made  so  many  jokes,  it 
was  so  funny." 

Among  her  classes  Claudia  will 
be  taking  English  (Man  in  Conflict), 
French  third  year.  Trigonometry, 
Govemement  and  chemistry.  She  will 
also  play  the  cello  in  the  orchestra. 

"I  don't  know  if  I'm  glad  for 
school  to  start.  The  American  sys- 
tem of  education  is  so  completely 
different  from  what  I've  had.  Also 
I  don't  realy  know  how  to  handle 
myself  around  foreigners.  There  are 
so  many  things  I  don't  understand."

School  Board  approves  behavior  code 


by  Nancy  Frebel 

Student  rights  and  responsibilities  are  de- 
scribed in  a  pamphlet  recently  approved  by  the 
Board  of  School  Trustees.  Rules  and  standards 
apply  to  conduct  on  school  premises,  school 
buses  and  at  school  functions. 

The  handbook  explains  areas  of  prohibited 
conduct  including  stealing  or  damaging  school 
property,  interfering  with  school  purposes  and 
possessing,  buying  or  selling  any  alcohohc  bev- 
erage, narcotics  or  drugs.  Printed  materials 
which  contain  profanity  or  vulgarity  and  are 
not  relevant  to  the  standards  of  the  community 
are  also  prohibited.  This  restriction  includes 
material  libelous  or  slanderous  of  any  institu- 
tion, race  or  rehgion. 
Principal  may  suspend  students 

Any  prmcipal  may  suspend  a  student  from 


school  or  any  school  function  for  a  period  of 
up  to  five  days  if  the  student  violates  any  of 
these  rules.  Smoking  or  gambling  on  school 
premises  also  may  constitute  suspension. 

According  to  Assistant  Principal  Robert  Mil- 
ler, any  student  may  be  suspended  if  he  or  she 
attempts  to  strike  or  strikes  a  teacher  or  school 
employee. 
Good  appearance  necessary 

Appearance  is  left  to  the  discretion  of  the 
students  although  grooming  which  disrupts  a 
classroom  or  endangers  health  will  not  be  tol- 
erated. "Last  year  we  only  had  to  tell  five  or 
six  students  to  dress  more  reasonably,"  com- 
mented Mr.  Miller. 

Studente  with  a  record  of  repeated  truancies 
or  tardiness  may  be  suspended  by  the  principal. 

The  new  handbook  provides  a  hearing  for 
students  to  be  suspended  from  school  over  five 


days.  The  student  is  entitled  to  a  hearing  m 
front  of  a  "Heai'ing  Examiner,"  an  impartial 
determinei-;  He  may  also  bring  with  him  a  rep- 
resentative on  his  behalf. 

Differing  from  the  handbook  approved  in 
1970  by  the  Board  of  School  Trustees,  the  pam- 
phlet also  provides  for  students  suspended  for 
a  period  under  five  days.  If  the  student  feels 
there  is  a  reason  he  should  not  be  suspended 
pending  a  hearing  he  may  request  a  prelim- 
inary conference  with  the  principal  or  the  Hear- 
ing Examiner. 
Personnel  provide  discipline 

The  superintendent,  principal,  teachers  or 
bus  drivers  are  authorized  to  take  action  in 
connection  with  student  behavior.  Such  action 
includes  additional  work,  restriction  of  eoctra 
curricular  activities  or  rearrangement  of  class 
schedules.

student  body.  The  Advance  will  maintain  high  standards  of 
journahsm  in  fulfilling  a  goal  of  better  understanding  and 
knowledge  of  local  and  national  events. 

Ms.  confuses  many 
as  women  choose  title 

To  Ms.  or  not  to  Ms.  —  that  is  the  question. 

So  goes  the  indecision  of  many  people  today  as  men 
stammer  something  similar  to  Miss  but  not  quite  Misses 
and  women  hesitate  and  scrawl  a  wavy  blurr  for  a  return 
address. 

Women's  liberationists  may  be  disappointed  as  they 
discover  Ms.  is  not  used  as  widely  as  they  expected.  They 
should  wear  tags  reading  "Call  me  Ms."  to  prevent  embar- 
rassment and  hesitation. 

Ms.  may  be  used  to  the  advantage  of  women  out  for 
thrills.  They  wish  to  hide  their  marital  status  to  lure  young 
men  into  their  clutches.  Then  they  keep  them  guessing  as 
to  whether  or  not  they  really  are  married. 

For  those  long  family  trips  a  game  or  two  of  "Mystery 
Ms."  can  keep  the  kids  guessing  for  hours.  Pick  a  lively 
looking  girl  from  the  crowd,  the  bra-less  types  are  too  easy. 
Study  her  walk,  her  smile  and  th  elength  of  her  skirt 
and  decide  if  she  is  or  isn't  one  of  those  kind.  The  real 
clincher  comes  when  you  belt,  "Hey  Ms."  out  the  window. 
The  reaction  tells  the  story.  An  embarrassed  glance  or  a 
disgusted  look  loses  and  a  big  understanding  smile  wins. 

In  an  all-girls  college  things  get  pretty  stagnant.  Why 
not  write  letters  to  your  old  boy  friends  signing  half  with 
Ms.  and  the  other  half  with  Miss.  Then  wait  and  see  how 
many  write  back. 

Ms.  has  its  disadvantages  too.  It  might  put  a  damper 
on  the  dirty  old  men  and  their  old  approach,  "Say  Miss, 
haven't  I  seen  you  somewhere  before  ?" 

Many  women  are  faced  with  a  magnanamous  decision. 
What  is  the  right  thing  for  a  woman  of  society  to  do? 
Should  they  deny  their  husbands  ownership  and  break 
away?  'Dear  Abby'  says  to  use  it  as  you  wish  but  warns 
not  jump  into  it  unless  absolutely  sure. 

Whether  you  are  a  stammering  gentleman,  a  dirty  old

Chess  king  wants  improvements 


by  Jaync  Langmcjcr 

"Sir,  the  car  you  demanded  has 
just  anive<l,  Sir." 

"Well,  wUat  are  you  waiting  for? 
Carry  me  out  so  I  can  get  a  look 
at  it.  Be  sure  you  wasli  your  hands 
before  you  touch  me.  You  do  have  a 
bar  of  soap,  don't  you?  Okay,  use 
it" 


"Tliis  is  the  car.  Mr.  Phisher,  Sir- 
Will  it- be  adequate  for  your  pur- 
poses Sir?" 

"Does  it  include  a  stereo,  bar,  air 
conditioning,  telephone,  luxury  seats, 
plush  carpeting  and  of  course,  a 
marble  chess  set?" 

"Yes  Sir.  All  those  it.ms  have 
been  included  for  your  convenience. 


Hopefully,  this  will  enable  you  to 
more  thoroughly  enjoy  your  stay  in 
Iceland,  Sir." 

"I  doubt  it.  Has  the  decorator 
been  here  yet?  If  I  am  forced  to 
look  at  those  hideous  brown  drapes 
for  another  day,  I  may  find  myself 
in  a  condition  unsuitable  for  par- 
ticipation in  the  next  round.  See  that 


he  gets  here  immediately.  I   ahhor 
tardy  peons." 

"Yes  Sir.  That  is  being  looked  into 
now.  Sir,  Is  there  anything  tlse  I 
can  do  for  you  Sir?" 

"Just  a  moment.  I'll  think  of  some- 
thing. Oh,  yes.  Has  all  paper- 
wrapped  candy  been  banned  fi-om 
Iceland?  I  want  candy  wi-appers  out 
of  this  country  before  I  will  resume 
play.  I  will  not  show  up  until  my 
wishes  have  been  taken  cai-e  of." 

"Sir,  the  officials  are  doing  theii- 
best  to  keep  the  noise  level  down 
in  the  playing  hall,  Sir." 

"I  demand  they  have  every  candy 
wrapper  gone  before  I  play  again. 
Have  thL  women  been  told  to  leave 
the  pool  yet?  I've  been  waiting  for 
five  minutes  now  just  for  a  swim. 
Who  do  they  think  I  am,  making  me 
wait  for  such  a  simple  thing  as  a 
dip  in  the  pool?  Check  to  sec  if  ALL 
women  have  been  told  to  leave  yet." 
"Yes  Sir.  The  pool  area  is  freo  of 
women,  Sir." 

"Before  I  swim,  we're  going  to 
the  playing  hall  to  see-  if  the  tele- 
vision cameras  have  been  removed. 
I  don't  care  what  Chester  Fox  says, 
I  will  not  havo  that  evil  eye  hover- 
ing over  me  while  I  am  destroying 
Spaskis  plans.  If  they  have  not  yet 
been  removed,  we  will  locate  Schmidt 
to  take  car..'  of  the  problem  before 
morning." 

"Sir,  a  message  has  just  arrived, 
Sir." 

"Sir,  Mr.  Spaski  wishes  to  post- 
pone today's  match.  He  claims  to  be 
fatigued  from  yesterday's  play." 

"What  is  this  outrage?  That  is  ;i 
most  insufficient  excuse.  It's  too 
vague  and  indefinite  to  meet  match 
rules.  I  demand  a  photostat  of  the 
medical  certificate." 

"I'll  look  into  that  right  away. 
Sir." 

"Don't  look  into  it  right  away. 
Look  into  it  now,  I  demand  it." 

"Sir,  your  wishes  are  being  taken 
care  of,  Sir." 

"I  believe  it's  time  for  me  to  rest 
for  tomorrow's  match.  I'll  be  there 
when  I  awaken." 


Acclaimed  movie  stirs  controversy 


Editor's  Note;  It  is  not  the 
policy  of  the  Advance  to  pro- 
mote X-rated  movies.  However, 
in  this  instance  we  fomid  an  un- 
usual literary  inOuence  on  this 
movie,  relevent  to  modern  per- 
missiveness. 

by  Janet  Bell 

A  Clockwork  Orange  —  voted  the 
best  film  of  the  year  by  New  York 
film  critics,  refused  advertising  in 
a  Fort  Wayne  newspaper  due  to  X- 
rating,  and  was  one  of  the  most  con- 
troversial and  acclaimed  pictures  of 
1972. 

A  Clockwork  Orange  was  director 
Stanley  Kubrick's  adaption  of  An- 
thony Burgess'  satiric  novel  about 
the  conflict  between  law  and  order 
and  human  freedom.  Violence  is 
balanced  with  satire,  and  humor 
comes  through  settings,  language 
and  costumes. 

Alex,  the  innocent  looking  main 
character  had  three  principal  inter- 
ests —  rape,  ultra-violence  and 
Beethoven.  Though  his  actions  are 
horrible  and  antisocial,  he's  almost 
admirable,  for  iiis  evil  instinct?  are 
pure. 
Film  set  in  future 

The  movie  takes  place  in  a  world 
of  tomorrow  where  youth  gangs  take 
over  the  cities  at  night  and  attend 
high  school  during  the  day.  Drugs 
are  legal  and  can  be  found  easily. 
Milkbars,  comparable  to  our  taverns, 
sell  molokplus,  a  drug  laced  milk. 
Sex  has  reached  its  most  permissive 
state  and  means  nothing  unless  ac- 
companied by  violence. 

In    a    desperate    attempt    to    stop 


these  gangs,  the  government  psy- 
chologists developed  conditioning 
techniques  designed  to  kill  the  crim- 
inal impuse  and  restore  law  and 
order. 

Alex  and  his  three  "droogs,"  or 
friends,  ravage  their  city  at  night, 
looting,  raping  and  killing,  Alex 
is  inside  a  health  farm  one  night 
as  his  friends  are  outside  plotting 
against  him, 
Alex   commits  murder 

He  accidentally  kills  the  owner  of 
the  farm,  only  to  run  outside  to  be 
betrayed  by   his  friends. 

He  is  caught  by  the  police,  charged 


with  murder  and  sentenced  to  14 
years  in  prison.  While  in  prison,  he 
hears  about  a  medical  technique 
that  changes  a  criminal's  mind  from 
evil  to  good.  Alex  is  chosen  for  this 
treatment  and  undergoes  severe 
testing  until  he  is  cured, 
Beethoven  influences  character 

His  cure  is  physical  pain,  and  re- 
pulsion to  violence,  sex  and  Beeth- 
oven. Beethoven  was  a  great  inspir- 
ing factor  in  his  former  life  of  vio- 
lence. 

Alex  is  set  free  and  is  tormented 
by  old  victims  he  happens  to  en- 
counter.   His    misery    leads   him    to 


suicide.  However,  he  does  not  kilt 
himself,  but  awakens  in  a  hospital 
only  to  find  his  old  way  of  thinking 
had  been  restored  because  he  could 
not  live  and  make  his  own  decisions. 

Brought  on  by  an  onslaught  of 
public  opinion,  the  government 
presses  for  this  reversion  in  Alex  to 
save  face,  Kubrick's  adaptation  en- 
hances this  political  criticism 
through  a  forceful  portrayal  of  the 
government  officials. 

A  Cloclm'ork  Oi-ange  brings  to 
light  many  fictional  social  ills  that 
could  easily  be  transferred  to  our 
own  existing  society.

Principal  explains  new  modular  system 


Fort  Wayne  Coramunity  Senior  High  Schools  will  be 
on  a  six-period  day,  plus  a  30-minute  lunch  starting  this 
fall.  The  class  bell  schedule  is  on  page  13  in  your  Student 
Handbook.  Since  there  is  no  Homerooni  period  in  our  new 
schedule,  attendance  and  announcements  will  be  taken  care 
of  immediately  after  the  start  of  period  one, 

Stai^ting  classes  at  8:00  a.m.,  the  elimination  of  the 
Homeroom  period  and  reducing  the  day  by  one  period,  has 
made  it  possible  for  dismissal  at  2:35  p.m.  FWCS  are  stag- 
gered as  to  starting  times  with  senior  highs  being  first, 
junior  high  second  and  elementary  schools  last.  This  ar- 
rangement makes  better  use  of  our  buses  and  small  young- 
sters will  have  daylight,  during  the  winter  months,  on  their 
way  to  school. 

There  are  many  high  school  students  employed  part 
time  and  early  dismissal  at  2:35  should  work  in  their  favor 
since  less  school  time  will  be  missed. 


Students  need  extra  lime 

Students  in  athletics,  music  and  speech  that  need  time 
outside  of  class  will  have  extra  time  to  train  and  reheai'se 
and  still  be  home  in  time  for  dinner  with  their  families. 

Extra-curricular  activities  can  hold  their  meetings  after 
school  and  make  good  use  of  the  daylight  hours.  There 
should  be  time  for  publications  to  get  in  extra  work,  sell 
ads  and  complete  assignments  needed  to  meet  deadlines. 

Let  us  not  assume  that  your  education  is  being  short- 
changed. The  fundamentals  of  learning  are  extremely  im- 
portant for  the  young,  especially  in  the  present  technologi- 
cal society  that  is  ours.  Do  not  let  your  job,  your  car  or  any- 
thing else  take  precedence  over  school.  In  this  rapidly 
changing  world,  experts  are  saying  that  each  person  will 
need  to  be  retrained  at  least  three  times  in  his  time  in  or- 
der to  do  the  work  needed  to  earn  a  living.  We  must  take 


heed  that  all  of  us  acquire  a  good  solid  high  school  educa- 
tion. 

Jobs  require  education 

Students  planning  on  college  should  take  as  much  Eng- 
lish, history,  math,  science,  and  modern  language  as  tinie 
permits.  Those  entering  skilled  and  semi-skilled  occupa- 
tions must  be  educated  sufficiently  to  acquire  technical 
training  after  high  school.  Unskilled  jobs  are  few  in  num- 
ber and  the  pay  is  not  very  rewarding. 

I  do  not  recommend  early  release  from  school  e^cept 
in  cases  of  hardship  and  privation.  Make  the  most  "^  your 
six-period  school  day,  in  schaal.  Pai't-time  jobs  are  ^"^  after 
your  school  work  is  finished.  I  am  afraid  that  tli^  quest  for 
the  American  dollar  is  going  to  hurt  some  of  o'""  students.

Alice  Cooper  plays  to  large  crowd 


Approxtiiiatoly  10,000  faiis  swarm- 
ed the  Memorial  Coliseum  August 
12,  for  one  of  the  most  electrifying 
stage  shows  in  rock  music  today, 
"The  Alice  Cooper  Experience." 

The  cresendo  had  been  building 
for  weeks  as  the  box  office  was  sold 
out  three  days  befoi'e  the  concert. 
The  concert  started  on  time  with  the 
warmup  group  Karsela  Majors 
blasting  onto  the  stage.  The  gi-oup 
played  original  songs  and  the  crowd 
soon  became  heated  and  restless  as 
the  group  played  on. 

When  the  intermission  stai-ted  and 
:he  lights  were  turned  on  numerous 
Frisbees  and  an  occasional  beachball 
■ould  be  seen  floating  through  the 
ai-ena.  The  demanding  clap  for 
Alice  Cooper  started  soon  after  the 
lights  were  dimmed.  The  group  be- 
gan to  play  silouetted  in  pink  light 
iid  producing  thousands  of  tiny 
mbbles  when  Alice  appeared.  He 
pranced  out  clad  in  thigh  high 
■  iack  and  gold  shoe  boots  with 
black  leotai'ds.  He  wore  a  pinkish- 
red  G-string  over  a  sheer  white 
jiarkj'  body  suit  with  a  leopard 
kin  scarf  tied  around  dierriere.  He 
shed  his  gloves  and  matching  jacket 


<luring  the  first  number  called  "Tell 
jMe  from   his  Schools  Out   album. 
Cooper  displays  snakes 

As  Alice  hopped  and  gyrated  ac- 
ross the  stage  the  ci'owd  rushed 
forward  breaking  down  a  fence  in 
front  of  the  stage  to  get  a  closer 
look  at  the  female  impersonator. 
Cooper  went  into  a  medley  of  his 
greatest  hits  and  the  swelling  aud- 
ience went  wild  clapping  and  stand- 
ing on  its  chairs.  The  police  were 
tolerant  of  the  crowd  as  the  no 
smoking  of  anything  i-ule  was  being 
violated  throughout  the  coliseum. 

As  the  drummer  went  into  a  solo 
Alice  disappeared  only  to  i^eappear 
bathed  in  a 'white  light  with  a  live 
10  foot  long  Boa  constricter  wrap- 
ped around  his  body.  He  pointed 
the  gigantic  snake  at  the  audience 
several  times,  then  kissed  and  fond- 
led it  to  the  amazement  of  the 
crowd. 

Alice  went  backstage  to  bring  out 
two  trashcans.  While  singing  Halo 
of  Flies,  he  dumped  the  contents 
of  the  cans  onto  the  stage.  Salvag- 
ing through  the  trash  lie  fished  out 
a    rat.    Cooper    then    proceeded    to 


swing  the  rat  by  its  tail  and  heave 
it  into  the  horrified  crush  of  people 
by  the  stage. 

Enacting  a  street  fight  with  a  fog 
effect  similar  to  a  scene  in  West 
Side  Story,  Alice  sliced  the  air  with 
a  long  s\vord.  The  brawl  went  on 
with  an  array  of  lights  illuminating 
the  stage.  Red  flashing  lights  ap- 
peared and  sirens  were  heard,  Alice 
was  left  on  the  stage  beaten  and 
stumbling  about.  The  sirens  and  fog 
continued  for  some  time  until  one 
of  the  group  members  stepped  to  the 
microphone  and  proposed  they  hang 
Alice  Cooper  as  a  customarj' 
part  of  his  show.  The  gallows  could 
be  seen  as  the  fog  cleared  and  chants 
of  "hang  him"  were  scattered 
throughout  the  crowd. 
Performer  hangs  in  act 

Torches  lit  the  way  to  the  gallows 
as  the  executioners  dragged  Alice, 
who  was  on  his  knees  to  the  noose. 
Cooper  stood  screaming  with  the 
rope  around  his  neck  receiving  lash- 
es as  a  lightening  and  thunder  effect 
was  produced.  As  .A.lice  hangs  the 
lights  dim  and  go  out  with  billowing 
smoke    engulfing    the    victim.    One 


Squad  takes  fourth 

Cheerleader  competes  in  nationals 


Varsity  cheerleaders  seniors  Gwen 
Bums,  Cindy  Hunt,  Debbie  Licht- 
'  sinn,  Sandy  McCabe,  Peggy  Stiffler 
and  junior  Jan  Feightner  partici- 
[  pated  in  cheerleading  camp  July  9 
through  July  12  at  Lake  Geneva. 
Wisconsin. 

"Approximately  300  girls,  com- 
posed of  60  squads  participated  in 
ilie  camp's  activities,"  Debbie  ex- 
)ilained.  Debbie,  captain  of  the  squad, 
won  tlij  ininor'of  ?8l»Petint;  in  the 
iietii.nat  competition.    ^' 

The  givla  spent  the  (la,vi*»P''actic- 
intr  cheers,  beginning  at  7  a.m.  "You 
rf:ii\y  have  to  like  cheerleading  100 
per  cent  to  want  to  attend  this 
camp,"  Debbie  coninicntcd:  "We 
worked  all  day  and  had  little  time 
for  other  outside  activities."  Each 
night  a  program  was  held  in  which 
eveiy  squad  would  demonstrate  their 
skills  by  doing  two  cheers,  one  from 
theii*  home  school  and  one  they  had 
learned  at  camp.  They  also  perform- 

'  a  chant. 

Vl»bic  wins  trophy 

"The  last  night  of  camp  an  awards 

i-eremony    was    held,"    Debbie    said. 

She    was    awai  ded    with   a    trophy 

signifying   she   had    placed   third   a- 


mong  the  other  girls  during  the  four 
days  of  competition, 

Debbie  received  the  honor  for  her 
individual  skill  and  ability.  "The  top 
five  individuals  were  also  awarded 
with  trophies  and  went  on  to  com- 
pete ill  the  nationals,"  Debbie  ex- 
plained. "I  just  couldn't  believe  it 
wlien  they  gave  me  the  trophy !" 
she  exclaimed.'"!  was  really  excited 
and,  very  proud." 
Squad  wins  ribbons 

Besides  Debbie's  award,  the  squad 
accepted  three  fourth  place  ribbons 
in  skit  competition  and  an  overall' 
best  skit  ribbon. 

The  nationals  took  place  in  East 


Lansing,  Michigan.  "These  were  73 
individuals  trying  out  in  addition  to 
57  squads.  We  had  to  perform  two 
cheers  and  a  chant,"  Debbie  said. 
Individual  winners  were  given  $150 
and  the  top  squads  were  given  new 
uniforms. 

Although  Debbie  attained  no  na- 
tional honors,  she  feels  she  gained 
the  knowledge  and  experience  of 
participating  in  national  competition.

wonders  if  this  is  the  end  of  the 
show  with  the  group  playing  Killer. 
Suddenly  the  smoke  clears  and  a 
skeleton  is  hanging  where  Alice  was. 
The  confusion  ends  when  Cooper 
stmts  back  out  on  stage  attired  in 
a  white  tuxedo  with  a  top  hat  and 
cane.  The  bubbles  that  began  the 
show  floated  across  the  stage  again- 
This  time  accompanied  by  six  foot 
wide  red  ballons  pushed  into  the 
audience  from  backstage.  Alice 
sang  Long  Way  To  Go  as  the  huge 
ballons  soared  through  the  audit- 
orium. With  his  mascara  painted 
face  running  and  his  teased  hair 
dripping  wet  with  perspiration  he 
waved  good-bye. 

Crowd  demands  encore 

The  crowd  demanded  an  encore 
Alice  reappeared  just  in  his  body 
suit,  backless  now,  bowing  and 
thanking  everyone.  The  Coliseum 
exploded  when  he  sang  his  cun-ent 
hit  single  Schools  Out.  In  the  middle 
of  the  song  he  began  to  eat  a  poster 
of  the  group.  He  then  pitched  arm- 
loads full  of  the  posters  to  the  aud- 
ience. As  the  crowd  was  still  peak- 
ing and  the  air  heavy  with  a  sweet 
smell,  Alice  spit  on  someone  then 
said,  "Indiana  wants  me.  You  know 
what  ?  You're  all  crazier  than  we 
are!",  and  strolled  off  stage. 


A  healthy  way  to  find 
yourself  through  Yoga 

by  Janet  Bell 

Many  disillusioned  young  people  today  are  turning 
away  from  such  false  values  as  drugs  and  alcohol  to  a  new 
way  of  life.  This  way  of  life  is  Yoga,  an  ancient  discipline 
that  developes  the  body,  mind  and  soul.  Yoga  not  only  brings 
inner  peacefulness  but  also  releases  great  energy. 

Yoga  demands  hard  work  and  self-discipline  although 
it  is  not  necessarily  an  all  or  nothing  proposition.  To  begin, 
one  can  take  a  Hatha  Yoga  or  "asana"  class,  commonly  call- 
ed a  "Yoga  exercise  class."  Many  of  the  asanas  or  bodily 
postui^es  are  named  after  animals,  and  were  devised  by  Yogi 
saints  and  sages  to  keep  the  spine  flexible,  promote  good 
blood  circulation  and  build  a  healthy  body  which  Yoga  be- 
lieves is  necessary  for  a  healthy  mind. 
Exercises  done  slowly 

In  some  ways  Yoga  postures  resemble  high  school  gym- 
nastics. They  involve  stretching,  bending  and  pulling, 
though  are  very  different  because  exercises  are  done  vigor- 
ously and  repeated.  Asanas  are  done  slowly  and  maintained 
for  a  time.  Regular  exercises  use  a  succession  of  muscle  con- 
tractions and  expansions;  Yoga  requires  a  single  contraction 
followed  by  relaxation.  It  is  possible  to  learn  the  simpler 
postures  without  special  instruction.  The  more  difficult 
asanas,  though,  need  the  assistance  of  an  insti'uctor  or  guru. 

Once  a  person  has  mastered  the  basic  postures,  he  can 
move  on  to  "pranayama,"  or  breath  control.  Yogis  believe 
breathing  is  an  art  and  that  the  control  of  breath  helps  one 
to  control  the  mind. 

Pranayama  teaches  deep  breathing,  breath  retention 
and  deep  exhalation.  The  more  air  you  inhale,  the  more 
energy  you  take  into  your  system.  The  deeper  you  exhale 
the  more  impurities  are  expelled  from  your  system. 
Meditation,  heart  of  Yoga 

After  pranayama  is  meditation,  which  is  the  heart  of 
Yoga.  "Raja  Yoga,"  the  path  of  concentration,  is  the  Yoga 
way  to  self-knowledge  and  peace.  Yoga  is  not  concerned  with 
what  we  call  logic,  it  uses  meditation  to  empty  the  mind  or 
unclutter  it.  Meditation  begins  with  concentration,  learning 
to  keep  the  mind  occupied  vrith  one  thing,  trying  to  focus 
on  one  point.  The  point  can  be  a  concrete  symbol,  anything 
for  which  you  have  a  good  feeHng. 

Most  people  who  discover  Yoganever  get  into  it  as  deep 
as  breath  control  and  meditation,  but  the  benefits  of  Yoga 
call  be  felt  by  doing  a  few  of  the  asanas  every  day.

Defense  holds 


Trojans  down  Concordia 


Senior  tackle  Kevin  McCormick  recovers  a  Concordia  fum- 
ble near  midfield  as  senior  guard  Charlie  Williams  looks  on. 
CatCn  this!  ^'^^  Trojans  beat  the  Cadets  10-0  in  the  jamboree  aiding  the 

visitors  to  a  victory  of  44-21.  Coach  Warren  Hoover  stated  he 
was  pleased  with  the  Trojan  defense  and  passing. 


A  haidnose  defense  spearheaded 
Elmhmst's  10-0  victory  over  Con- 
cordia in  the  17th  annual  Jamboree 
last  Thursday  night.  The  Trojan 
defepse  allowed  only  16  yards  on  the 
ground  and  20  yards  in  the  air  dur- 
ing their  24  minute  confrontation 
with  Concordia. 

In  a  slow  first  half,  Concordia  only 
penetrated  Elmhurst  territory  once, 
but  the  Trojan  offense  was  unable  to 
.■sustain  a  drive  despite  several  fine 
runs  by  senior  fullback  Paul 
Watters. 
Trojans  recover  fumble 

Late  in  the  second  half  when  it 
seemed  the  game  would  end  a  score- 
less   tie,    senior   tackle    Kevin    Mc- 


Cormick fell  on  a  Concordia  fumble. 
This  was  the  break  the  Trojan  of- 
fense needed.  Senior  quarterback 
Dave  Butler  completed  an  18  yard 
aerial  to  senior  Don  Miller.  Senior 
John  Adams  sprinted  to  the  five-yard 
line  to  set  up  the  scoring  play.  But- 
ler rolled  out  around  the  left  end, 
and  finding  his  receivers  covered, 
scurried  into  the  end  zone  untouched. 
Senior  Tom  Kennerk  added  the  extra 
point  with  4:55  left  in  the  contest. 
Defense  holds  Cadets 

On  Concordia's  next  offensive 
play,  the  powerful  Trojan  defense 
forced  another  fumble  as  senior  line- 
backer Dave  Turnley  recovered  the 
ball.  Butter  threw  to  Miller  on  the 


Grid  team  faces  Northrop 


by  Male  Finlayson 

Revenge  for  last  year's  9-7 
loss  to  Northrop  won't  come 
easy  for  Coach  Warren  Hoover 
and  his  Trojan  footballers  in 
tonight's  rematch  at  Wayne 
Stadium. 

Elmhurst  will  have  to  contain  the 
strength  and  experience  of  the  . 
Northrop  ninning  backs  who  are  led 
by  all-city  junior  Jim  Rosselot. 
Northrop  also  has  much  experience 
in  the  line  with  six  of  the  seven 
stai-tei-3  back  from  last  yeai-'s  team. 

The  outcome  of  the  game  may  lie 
in  the  ability  of  the  Trojan  defensive 
line  to  get  to  the  quarterback,  a 
position  Bruin  coach  Buzz  Doerffler 
had  not  yet  adequately  filled. 
Trojans  change  offense 

This  season  the  Trojans  will  em- 
ploy the  T-formation  and  variations 
of  the  T  in  the  offensive  backfield 
with  a  tight  six-man  line.  With  sen- 
ior Dave  Butler  doing  the  quarter- 
backing,  Elmhurst  will  have  a  well- 
balanced  attack,  which  should  lead 
to  wide  open  games. 

Senior  Paul  Watters  has  won  the 
starting  fullback  job,  and  flanking 
him  will  be  seniors  John  Adams  and 


Bob  Paschal]  as  quick  hitting  half- 
backs. 

Anchoring  the  potent  Trojan  line 
will  be  senior  Ton  Kennerk  at  center 
with  senior  Roland  Bynum  and  jun- 
ior Jack  Wolfe  starting  at  the  guard 
positions. 
Line  looks  Strong 

Seniors  Murray  Weber  and  John 
Hoard  are  the  first  string  tackles 
with  seniors  Don  Miller  and  Steve 
Miller  starting  at  the  end  positions 
again  this  year. 

With  a  G-2-3  alignment  on  de- 
fense, seniors  Bob  Poschall,  John 
Adams  and  Nate  Brown'  will  form 
the  defensive  secondary.  Alternating 
at  the  linebacking  positions  ■will  be 
seniors  Dave  Turnley,  Pete  Tumley 
and  Steve  Miller,  who  were  all  con- 
ference last  year. 

The  interior  of  the  defensive  line 
will  be  composed  of  senior  Charles 
Williams  and  junior  Jack  Wolfe  at 
guards,  along  with  seniors  Murray 
Weber  and  John  Hoard  starting  at 
the   tackle   positions. 

Paul  Watters  has  captured  one  of 
the  defensive  end  jobs  and  vying 
for  the  other  end  chores  are  Tom 
Kennerk,  Don  Miller,  and  junior 
Kevui  Howell. 

An  addition  to  the  Elmhurst 
coaching   staff  is  John   Sweet,  who 


will  be  handling  the  reserva  back- 
field.  Coach  Sweet,  who  previously 
coached  at  Kekionga  Junior  High, 
shows  much  enthusiasm  by  partici- 
pating in  live  scrimmages  without 
equipment. 

The  Ti-ojans  have  eleven  return- 
ing lettermen  from  last  yeai-'s  team. 
They  are  seniors  John  Adams,  Dave 
Butler,  Roland  BjTium,  John  Hoard, 
Don  Milltr  and  St«ve  Miller.  Round-

It's   a  rebuilding  year  for  Elm- 

hui-st's  cross  countiy  team,  with  only 
one  man  returnmg  from  last  year's 
ninth  in  state  squad. 

According  to  Head  Coach  Carter 
Lohr,  he  expects  to  finish  in  the  top 
four  teams  in  both  the  sectionals  and 
the  regionals.  Leaders  anticipated 
are  seniors  Tom  Boyer  and  Chris 
Johnson  with  strong  support  from 
sophomores  Mike  Arnold  and  Paul 
Stevens. 
Seniors  lead  team

up  to  six  and  seven  miles  twice  a 
day,  include  seniors  Gaiy  Loomis 
and  Zack  Carter,  juniors  John  Bol- 
inger,    Larry    Middleton    and    Barry 


The  Elmhui-st  tennis  team  has  been 
practicing  since  mid-August,  hoping 
to  improve  last  year's  i-ecord.  Head 
coach  Ken  Eytcheson  believes  pro- 
spects are  much  better  this  season 
with  "a  fine  group  of  sophomores 
joining  tlie  team,"  he  said, 

"Competition  around  the  city  will 
be  tougher  than  last  year,"  Eyteh- 
eson  said.  He  believes  Concordia  and 
South  Side  will  be  battling  for  the 
city  title. 

Boys  competing  for  the  top  six 
positions  are  seniors  Jeff  Hibler, 
Matt  Hunter  and  Bob  Frank.  Jun- 
iors include  Jeff  Morsches,  Bernie 
Kampschmidt,  Steve  Grady,  Dave 
Huffman,  Syke  Heiney  and  Mark 
Leidecker.  Sophomores  are  Jim 
Theye,  Greg  Hershberger.  Steve  Hib- 
ler and  George  Huber.

Jeff  Hiblei',  Bob  Frank  and  Bemie 
Kampschmidt.  Also  returning  arc

In  high  school  tennis,  four  singles 
and  three  doubles  matches  aro  play- 
ed to  determine  the  winning  team. 
Each  match  is  played  to  eight  games 
but  tile  winner  must  have  a  two  game 
advantage. 

The  tennis  team  began  it's  season

then  booted  a  fine  23-yard  field  goal. 
Elmhurst,  who  played  on  the  visit- 
ors team,  contributed  10  points  to 
the  44-21  victory.  The  home  teams 
failed  to  score  Thursday,  and  Bishop 
Dwenger  did  the  home  team's  only 
scoring  Wednesday  night  while  city 
powers  Northrop  and  Bishop  Luers 
battled  to  a  scoreless  tie. 

Coach  pleased  with  team 

"I  was  pleased  with  the  defense 
and  the  passing,  but  I  felt  our  run- 
ning game  was  not  given  a  true 
test,"  stated  Head  Coach  Warren 
Hoover.  "I  am  looking  forward  to 
oui-  game  against  Northrop  tonight. 
It  should  be  a  good  one,"  he  con- 
cluded. 


ing  out  the  list  are  all-city  defensive 
back  Bob  Paschall,  Dave  and  Pete 
Turnley,  Paul  Watters  and  Murray 
Weber. 

"I  expect  our  defense  to  be  one 
of  the  best  in  the  city,"  stated  head 
coach  Hoover.  "We  \vill  be  a  tough 
running  team  because  I  expect  our 
line  to  be  outstanding.  We'll  have  a 
good  club,  we  have  a  lot  of  kids 
with  experience,"  he  concluded.

Northrop  is  expected  to  dominate 
the  Fort  Wayne  area  this  year  in 
cross  country,  but  "Elraliurst  will  be 
able  to  hold  it's  own  against  most 
teams,"  Head  Coach  Lohr  said. 
Longer    distance    prepares    rumiers 

The  cross  country  course  has  been 
lengthened  from  two  to  two  and  a 
half  miles.  This  is  to  better  prepare 
the  i-unners  for  the  longer  distance 
they  will  encounter  in  college. 

On  September  12  the  squad  will 
travel  to  Kendallville  to  run  against 
East  Noble  and  Wayne  High  schools. 
Their  first  home  meet  is  September 
14  at  Swinney  Park  against  Tipton.

Counselors 

express 

ideas 

Ly  J.yne  Langmeyer 


Several  administration  changes  have  been 
made  in  the  guidance  depai'tment  this  year. 
Mrs.  Carol  Pugsley,  Dean  of  Girls;  Mrs.  Shar- 
on Banks,  guidance  counselor;  and  Mr.  Doug- 
las Spencer  replacing  Mrs.  Grace  Pennington 
as  guidance  coordinator;  have  assumed  posi- 
tions for  the  1972-73  school  year. 
Counselor  relates  background 

Mrs.  Pugsley,  former  guidance  counselor  at 
Poi-tage  Junior  High  School,  has  replaced  Mrs. 
Mary  Fast.  Being  involved  in  education  for  26 
years  in  the  junior  and  senior  high  area,  Mrs. 
Pugsley  has  counseled  as  well  as  taught  physi- 
cal education  and  home  economics. 

The  former  junior  high  counselor  was  re- 
quii-ed  to  participate  in  a  screening  process  b&- 
fore  selection  to  her  new  position  as  Dean  of 
Girls.  It  included  two  written  tests,  a  personal 
interview  with  the  Fort  Wayne  Community 
School  Board  and  an  interview  with  Principal 
Charles  Eickhoff. 


Referring  to  her  arrival  at  Elmhurst,  Mrs. 
Pugsley  said,  "I  came  in  not  knowing  what  to 
anticipate.  Things  are  run  much  the  same  as 
they  are  at  Portage.  Mr.  Eickhoff  and  Mr.  Mil- 
ler had  things  organized  excellently.  It  made 
for  a  good  situation." 

"People  have  taught  me  so  well,"  she  con- 
tinued. "Everyone  has  been  most  kind  and  help- 
ful." 

When  asked  of  her  impressions  of  the  stu- 
dents, Mrs.  Pugsley  said,  "The  guys  have  been 
gentlemen  and  everyone  has  treated  me  with 
the  utmost  respect  and  courtesy.  I  wouldn't 
complain  a  bit."  < 
Dean  "plays  it  by  ear" 

Mrs.  Pugsley  said  Mrs.  Fast  left  her  much 
information  which  might  prove  helpful  during 
the  year.  "I  slipped  into  the  situation  and  have 
been  playing  it  by  ear,"  she  said. 

Mrs.  Sharon  Banks  is  a  guidance  counselor 
besides  teaching  a  business-arithmetic  class. 
She  was  formerly  the  co-ordinator  of  the  work 


study  program  at  Lincoln  Life.  "I  had  20  un- 
derprivileged students,  most  of  them  unwed 
mothers.  I  taught  them  spelling,  typing,  math 
and  English  with  ages  ranging  from  19-44. 
They  worked  half  a  day  and  attended  class  the 
other  half,"  she  said. 
Counselor  identifies  with  Blacks 

As  a  representative  of  the  Black  population 
at  Elmhurst,  Mrs.  Banks  said,  "Black  women 
counselors  ai-e  in  demand.  They  help  not  only 
in  disciplinary  problems  but  they  can  also  iden- 
tify with  the  Black  students." 

Mr.  Douglas  Spencer  is  replacing  Mrs.  Grace 
Pennington  who  is  presently  the  Assistant  Di- 
rector for  Guidance  at  the  downtown  Pupil- 
Personnel  Office.  Mr.  Spencer  is  responsible  for 
assigning  specific  duties  to  each  counselor. 

Students  wishing  to  confer  with  a  counselor 
should  contact  the  following:  seniors,  Mr.  John 
Sinks  and  Mr.  Spencer;  juniors,  Mr.  WiUiam 
Geyer  and  Mrs.  Pugsley;  and  sophomores,  Mi-s. 
Banks  and  Mr.  Jerry  Bush.

Pageant  proves  valuable 


The  Elmhurst  marching  band  helped  to  cheer  the  football  team 
^  on  to  a  13-12  victory  over  Northrop  last  Friday  night  at  Wayne 

In   UIllSQXl  stadium.  The  band  performs  at  all  home  football  games  under 

the  direction  of  Mr.  Randy  Brugh.  Members  dedicate  after-

years  old.  An  application  listing  in- 
formation about  the  girls  and  their 
special  talents  and  interests  was 
also  necessary. 

"They  stated  in  bold  letters  on  the 
application  that  the  pageant  is  not 
a  beauty  contest  but  based  on  intel- 
ligence, talent  and  poise,"  Terri 
stressed. 

"I  then  received  a  letter  stating

Riding  enthusiasts  gain  experience 
from  annual  Charity  Horse  Show 


I  was  accepted  to  be  a  contestant. 
This  year  there  were  only  about  25 
girls  competing  although  I  felt  the 
ability  was  more  concentrated  than 
last  year,"  Terri  stated,  who 
also  competed  in  the  1972  pageant. 

After  presenting  their  talents,  the 
girls  took  an  examination  consist- 
ing of  current  events,  fashion,  sci- 
ence, social  studies  and  literature. 
"My  talent  was  a  film  of  myself 
horseback  riding  alternating  with 
diving  and  at  the  same  time  I 
played  the  violin  in  person,"  she  ex- 
plained. 

The  fifteen  finalists  were  an- 
nounced on  the  WANE-TV  news. 
Talents  were  taped  the  follomng 
week  for  the  first  portion  of  the 
televisied  pageant  September  3. 
Contestants  answer  questions 

Talents  were  shown  and  each  girl 
was  given  a  spontaneous  question 
to  answer  on  the  show,  "My  ques- 
tion dealt  with  parents  and  then 
children,"  Terri  added. 

Five  finalists  were  chosen  to  ap- 
pear the  following  Sunday  from 
which  a  queen  would  be  chosen  "I 
was  thrilled  when  my  name  was 
called  but  the  terrible  pai't  is  the 
last  name.  I  just  didn't  know  who 
it  would  be."  During  the  week  the 
girls  were  required  to  write  an  es- 
say on  the  challenges  they  see  foi 
themselves. 

Talents  were  again  presented  last 
Sunday  along  with  the  speeches. 
Terri 's  competition  included  two 
dance  acts,  a  singer  and  a  van- 
triliquist.  Her  essay  emphasized  the 
need  for  young  people  to  strike 
out  on  their  own  and  try  to  im- 
prove' the  world  but  not  expect 
chanjie  overnight. 

The  girls  were  asked  several  ques- 
tions   concerning    their   relationship 


to  the  world  around  them  ^nd  votes 
were  tabulated  by  the  judgies. 
Judges  chose  queen 

Starr  Nahrwold,  a  senior  at 
Northrop  High  School  wa^  crowned 
Miss  Teenage  Fort  Wayne  by  the 
former  queen,  Laurie  Maxfield, 

Starr  will  travel  to  Dallas,  Texas 
with  her  parents  for  the  nationally 
televised  Miss  Teenage  America 
pageant.  She  also  won  (a  Honda 
mini-trail,  luggage  and  4  sailboat. 
The  five  finalists  eachj  received 
roses,  a  charm  bracelet  and  a 
camera. 

"It  was  a  lot  of  fun  ai^id  good  ex- 
perience as  you  perform  and  are 
judged  in  front  of  an  audience.  You 
get  to  see  behind  the  scenes  and 
how  a  TV  station  operates.  I  can 
always  look  back  and  say,  'I  was  in 
that  pageant',"  Terri   concluded.

Senior  Terri  Lipp,  juniors  Vicki 
Veale  and  Sandy  Strawbridge  par- 
ticipated with  approximately  51)0 
other.s  in  the  annual  Fort  Wayne 
Charity  Horse  Show  last  Thursday 
through  Sunday. 

Vicki  rode  in  the  Novice  division 
for  riders  without  much  experience 
in  recognized  shows.  "I  was  in  the 
equatation  classes  ,  .  ,  one  on  the 
flat  and  one  over  fences,"  she  stated. 
"In  these  I  was  judged  on  my  form 
and  the  way  I  rode." 

"My  third  class  was  tiic  Child- 
ren's Hmilei-  Under  Saddle  class.  It's 


a  flat  class  and  you  don't  do  any 
jumping.  This  class  was  judged  on 
the  horses  performance  and  if  he  is 
a  good  mount^for  a  young  person." 
Kider  attends  camp 

Vicki  ijlaced  tenth  on  the  flat 
equatation  class  and  third  on  the 
fences.  "In  the  Hunter  class  I  got 
a  second  and  was  really  very  sur- 
prised. I  had  hoped  to  place  but  I 
didn't  think  I'd  do  that  well.  But, 
since  I  went  to  riding  camp  this 
past  summer  I  felt  confident  that 
I'd  do  better  than  usual," 

Sandy  rode  in  the  Junior  Wofking 
Hunter  Class  with   5.1  otlier  people. 


Art  director  chooses  play 


Cactus  Flower,  the  1972 
school  play,  will  be  held  Oct. 
20,  21,  27  and  28  in  the  gym- 
nasium according  to  Mr.  Don- 
ald Goss,  theater  arts  director. 

The  play  is  basr^d  on  confusions 
-niii  misundep'standings  which  are 
pint  intentional  and  part  accidental. 
"A  bachelor  dentist  has  a  gimmick 
t-*  keejj  single  by  tabling  his  girls 
that  he's  manied  and  has-three  kids. 
But  that's  a  lie  and  his  gimmick 
I'uckriroR  when  he  decides  to  marry 
■■r\Q  of  the  girls,"  stated   Mr.   Goss. 

('irirriend  clears  conncience 

"She  ha^  very  high  standards  and 
'Ifniands  to  sec  the  fictitous  wife  and 
'■liiidren.  Since  «ho  doesn't  want  to 
bf  a  homewreckL-r,  she  wants  to  make 
»ure  the  fake  wife  hufi  a  new  hus- 
band and  her  conucionce  is  clear  to 
many  the  doctor," 


"ML-aiiwhilu  the  doctor  tui'ns  to  his 
nurse  to  play  the  part  of  his  wife," 
he  continued.  "It  is  she  who  blossoms 
from  a  nurse  in  a  band-aid  white 
uniform  to  a  Iqvely  lady  quite  like 
a  cactus  flower  blooms." 

There  ary  ten  people  in  the  cast. 
They  are  Dr.  Julian  Winston,  a 
su|)er-bachelor  dentist;  Stephanie, 
the  nurse;  Toni  Simmons,  the  doc- 
toi-'s  girl  friend  and  Ignor  Sullivan, 
a  Mr,  America  type  writer.  Also  in- 
cluded in  the  cast  are  Harvey  Green- 
field, the  doctor's  actor  friend;  Mrs. 
D  u  r  a  n  t,  a  patient;  Botuchelli's 
Springtime,  a  dancer;  Senor  SanchcK 
who  dates  the  nurse  and  a  customer, 
music  lover,  and  a  waiter, 

I'artH  (trovide  challenge 

"The  acting  parts  are  absolulely 
delicious  and  every  student  has  an 
opportunity  to  feel  like  llicy  cun  have 
u  part.  The  experience  ie  indelible 


;rinl    the    tiiiiiiing   gives   a   sense    of 
acconiplishnioiit  without  the  presence 
of  competition,"  Mr.  Goss  said. 
Stage  requires  fewer  eets 

Pour  stage  sets  provide  bnck- 
giound  to  the  play.  They  include  the 
dentist's  office,  Toni's  apai-tment  in 
Greenwich  Village,  a  record  shop 
where  she  works  and  a  night  club. 
"The  scenes  shift  15  times.  This  is 
jirobably  one  of  the  reasons  Cactus 
Flower  hasn't  been  done  in  Fort 
Wayne.  It  is  technically  compli- 
cated," he  added. 

"Even  thougli  there  are  plenty  of 
Noil  Simon  plays  we  thought  wc  had 
our  shaie  of  them.  Cactus  Flower 
was  wiittcii  by  Abe  HuiTOws  and  is 
an  adnptii)n  of  a  French  farce  by 
Piene  Haiillet  and  Jean  Pierre 
Grcdy.  The  cntthusiasm  has  been  high 
even  before  tryouts,"  commented  Mr, 
Goss.  "It  looks  like  the  beginning  of 
a  good  year," 


"It  was  a  course  of  jumps  and  my 
class  was  really  big.  We  did  pretty 
good  considering  all  the  pros  but  it 
just  wasn't  my  show." 

"Usually  the  classes  are  deter- 
mined by  age  but  this  one  was 
determined  by  the  horses  height. 
Sixteen  hands  and  under  and  It! 
hands  and  over.  There  are  four 
inches  to  a  hand.  My  horse  is  16 
hands  and  three  inches,"  she  stated. 
Show  provides  experience 

"Even  if  you  place  low  or  not  at 
all,  what  you  leam  from  a  show 
is  good  and  it  helps  you  do  a  lot 
better  next  time.  I  really  learn  a 
lot  from  others'  experience.'-  as  well 
as  my  own  too." 

Terri  rode  in  the  Green  Working 
Hunter  classes,  "This  is  a  class  for 
horses  who  aren't  real  good  jumpers 
and  is  an  outside  course,  I  just  had 
to  memorize  the  course  and  ride  it." 

"I  rode  on  Friday  in  a  morning 
class  and  one  in  the  afternoon,  I 
also  rode  in  one  Saturday  afternoon. 
Unless  you  do  really  great  and  un- 
less you  have  a  good  hoi-se,  you 
can't  place  well.  My  hoi-sc  and  I 
just  didn't  have  enough," 
Judges  grade  form 

Other  classes  in  the  show  included 
.saddle  horse  class,  Tennessee  Walk- 
er, Shetland  and  Hackney  Harness 
ponies,  and  Jumper  division.  "Every 
year  there  are  good  judges  for  the 
show  and  I  think  they  are  really 
fair.  In  my  class  the  equatation 
class  you  are  judged  only  on  how 
you  ride.  It  doesn't  matter  if  you 
rode  n  cow,  they  would  have  to  judge 
you  on  form  to  he  absolutely  fair 
and  they  ai-e,"  .stated  Vicki, 

"It's  really  one  of  the  nicest  shows 
around,"  she  concluded.  "There  is 
a  large  main  ring  and  outside  cour- 
ses. Also  they  offer  good  prize 
money."

2  —  THE  ELMHURST  ADVANCE     Friday,  Sept.  15, 1972 


Cheerblock  dissolves; 
school  spirit  staggers 

Booster  Club,  the  traditional  cheerblo*  at  Elmhurst 
has  dissolved.  Last  year  a  meeting  was  to  be  called  to  elect 
72-73  officers.  Five  girls  signed  up  and  the  meeting  was 
never  held. 

Two  years  ago  there  were  120  Booster  Club  members. 
Last  year  there  were  only  30  members  quite  a  few  who 
never  appeared  at  the  basketball  games.  The  eighl^doUar 
cost  included  a  red  shirt,  scarf,  season  ticket  and  club 
dues.  The  club  met  for  one  hour  a  week,  not  too  much  to 
ask  of  anyone. 

Snider  High  School's  cheerblock,  one  of  the  largest  in 
the  city,  pays  nearly  $26  for  uniforms.  Apathy  seems  to 
have  found  a  good  breeding  place  in  Elmhurst. 

Students  care  more  about  themselves  than  the  actual 
game.  Girls  would  rather  not  wear  the  uniforms  which 
certainly  don't  flatter  the  figure.  They  would  rather  play 
the  coy  female  not  wishing  to  raise  their  voices  above  a 
whisper.  After  all  what  boy  would  look  twice  at  a  Booster 
Club  member? 

Sports  and  sports  fans  go  together  like  soup  and  sand- 
wiches but  where  are  the  sports  fans?  The  basketball  team, 
as  all  other  athletic  teams,  needs  support  and  the  main  sup- 
port came  from  the  Booster  Club  belting  out  cheers  and 
transmitting  spirit.  With  no  spirit  among  students  spirit 
among  athletes  may  die  also. 

Most  students  would  rather  read  about  the  game  in 
the  morning  paper  than  attend.  Still,  if  Elmhurst  wins  they 
have  a  way  of  saying,  "We  won"  as  if  they  had  anything 
to  do  with  it.  Their  presence  helps  a  great  deal  as  athletes 
depend  on  a  good  crowd  to  spur  them  on. 

If  a  school  has  an  accomplished  athletic  team  naturally 
it  builds  in  popularity.  Athletes  work  hard  at  winning  and 
in  actuality  they  are  boosting  the  school  and  the  students. 
Students  have  the  after  effects  of  winning.  They  are  proud 
if  Elmhui-st  wins  although  they  don't  care  if  the  team 
loses.  Students  are  cheating  themselves  with  this  attitude 
and  even  more  they  are  cheating  the  team. 


Olympic  tragedy  ends 
International  tradition 

The  Olympics,  for  many,  are  an  epic  journey  of  many 
years'  toil  and  sacrifice  to  perfect  their  bodies  into  perpetual 
machines  of  strength,  speed  and  endurance.  Inbred  in  this 
competition  is  the  nationalism  to  strive  for  one's  country 
and  the  personal  goal  to  stand  above  all  as  a  gold  medalist. 
Theoretically,  the  politics  and  prejudices  are  to  be  left  at 
home,  for  the  Olympics  are  a  contest  of  athletes,  not 
warriors. 

Unfortunately,  a  small  group  of  "men"  looked  beyond 
this  peaceful  competitive  bond  and  used  it  to  their  own 
murderous  advantage.  They  shot  eleven  defenseless  Israelies 
on  foreign  soil  because  of  their  country's  beliefs  in  another 
part  of  the  world. 

The  world  was  outraged,  but  did  little  to  right  this 
wrong.  The  games  continued,  with  a  wreath  placed  here 
and  there  to  remind  silently  those  who  might  forget. 

The  reality  of  those  ideals  which  were  held  by  Olympic 
participants  is  now  shattered.  Gone  is  the  feeling  of  hope. 
The  Olympics  were  the  last  negotiating  table,  the  last 
sanctuary  where  men  of  different  beliefs  and  religions 
could  compete  on  equal  terms. 

The  games  may  continue  as  an  international  sporting 
event;  however,  what  will  the  cost  be  upon  the  host  nation? 
It  will  have  to  supply  security  far  above  Munich's,  for  the 
heartfelt  protection  of  the  games  is  now  gone.  Even  with 
the  promise  of  unlimited  security,  what  nation  wishes  to 
send  out  peace-loving  ambassadors  into  the  potential  holo- 
caust of  world  politics? 

The  world  regretfully  witnesses  acts  of  crime  and 
violence  every  day.  However,  the  time  .  .  .  the  place  .  .  . 
the  numbers  shall  mark  it  as  one  of  the  greatest  setbacks 
toward  universal  peace. 

Our  world  suffered  immensely  when  those  eleven  men 
were  slain  on  that  violent  night.  And  yet,  the  ultimate 
tragedy  may  endure  beyond  that  evening.  As  an  anonymous 
Finni.sh  athlete  stated:  "It  is  over  for  me;  I  wish  to  com- 
pete no  more." 


Homecoming  plans  ?  ?  ? 


Activities  lack  interest 


'1m^i^&^it*6A 


by  Jayne  Langmeyer 

Homecoming  plans  have  been 
seemingly  ignored  this  year 
due  to  a  lack  of  time.  Accord- 
ing to  Principal  Charles  Eick- 
hoff  we  will  not  have  the  dance 
which  was  tradition  up  until 
last  year. 

The  music  department  previously 
sponsored  the  dance,  but  for  fin- 
ancial reasons  they  have  discon- 
tinued their  support.  This  year  a 
club  or  group  of  interested  stu- 
dents are  needed  to  sponsor  the 
homecoming   activities. 

School  has  become  a  place  for 
quick  classes  and  a  very  early  dis- 
missal. Tradition  must  be  kept  alive 
or  replaced  with  new  ideas  which 
will  create  class  unity. 
Cancellations  break  tradition 

Tradition  broken  at  Elmhurst  i-e- 
cently  has  been  the  abolishment  of 
the  sophomore  dance,  the  home- 
coming dance  and  holding  the  juniior- 
senior  prom  in  the  school. 

Because  a  iacft  of  attendance  and 
interest  decrease,  the  sophomore 
dance  was  cancelled  when  less  bhan 
a  dozen  tickets  were  sold.  Also, 
the  prom  was  held  at  the  Sheraton 
Hotel  because  backing  could  not 
be  located  to  organize  decorations, 
etc.   for   the   prom   to   be   at  school. 

This  year  is  also  doomed  to  exist 
without  a  student  council.  Apathy, 
an  overused  word  but  appropriate 
when  used  as  a  label  for  the  Elm- 
hui-st  student  body,  is  -the  most 
widespread  common  feeling  in  the 
school. 


The  disbandment  of  the  student 
council  involved  a  vote  by  council 
members  to  discontinue  the  organ- 
iiwition.  Without  a  student  govern- 
ing body,  where  will  the  voice  of  the  '  - 
students  be  heard? 

Class   elections  delayed 

Class  elections  have  hlao  been 
delayed.  Plans  for  homecoming  pro- 
cedures will  be  difficult  yithout 
adequate  leaders  to  start  thfe  pro- 
cedures necessary  for  a  succes^ul  , 
event.  Again,  students  are  neededV 
begin  plans  for  elections.  \ 

Student  interest  is  the  only  solu      m 
tion  to  our  problem  of  apathy.  Ti''  ■.  -^ 
should    not    be    a    factor    thi.=i    ■^  g^ 
with    the    shortened     cfii>':'^eventh  "^ 
period  can  be  used,  for  club  meet- 
ings   and    organizations    of  evwntB. 
Attenjipt-^roves  difficult        \- 

The  first  attempt  for  involveiiieivi 
is  always  the  liardest,  but  once  a- 
gain,  our  goals  can  be  attained. 

Floats,  which  are  usually  con- 
nected with  homecoming,  can  only 
be  accomplished  if  students  want 
it.  This  year's  plans  do  not  include 
any  sort  of  floats  or  entertainment. 
If  we  want  the  1972  homecoming  to 
be  a  success,  it  will  have  to  involve 
participation  on  our  part,  a  desire 
to  start  the  job  and  complete  it 
successfully. 

School  is  for  the  student,  not  the 
administration  or  faculty.  Demands 
are  made  geared  towards  us,  but  we 
also  must  make  demands.  Not  nec- 
essarily on  the  staff,  but  on  our 
fellow  classmates  who  are  forming 
this  year's  student  body  into  an 
apathetic  group. 


The  Candidate  disillusions  viewers 


Director  Michael  Ritchie's

Vocational  center  offers  job  future 


Editor's  Note:  Informa- 
tion and  statistics  con- 
tained in  the  following 
story  were  taken  from  the 
magazine  "Changing 
Times,"  published  by  the 
Kiplinger  New  Letter. 

Due  to  labor  demand,  more 
and  more  students  are  turning 
toward  vocational  schools  rath- 
er than  college  for  training. 

Labor  experts  predict  by  the 
end  of  the  1970's  only  20  per 

cent  of  all  jobs  will  require  a  four 
year    degree    to    qualify   for    a    job. 

Now  offered  in  all  states,  these 
training  centers  are  geared  pri- 
marily toward  high  school  students. 
Several,  however,  do  offer  their 
facilities  to  drop-outs  and  graduates. 
In  existence  today  are  approximately 
1,900  of  these  vocational  centers. 
Students  improperly  trained 

Because  of  the  inailequate  courses 
offered  at  the  high  school  level, 
many  students  found  themselves  im- 
properly trained  for  any  career  or 
for  a  college  education.  This  is  one 
cause  of  an  unemployment  rate. 
Last  year,  nearly  2,000,000  workers 
were  added  to  the  labor  market 
without  proper  training. 

Traditionally,  this  form  of  edu- 
cation has  received  minor  attention 
from  educators,  while  college  pre- 
paratory classes  were  their  primary 
interest.  Many  schools  offered  noth- 
ing more  than  shop  classes  to  stu- 
dents. 
Government  provides  funds 

Now  the  government  has  made 
available  the  necessary  funds  to 
create  vocational  centers.  Many 
schools  are  adding  new  departments 
to  their  buildings  while  othei-s  arc 


consolidating  resources  with  other 
schools  to  build  centers.  Job  training 
available  in  some  vocational  schools 
include  automotive  mechanics,  nurs- 
ing, electronics,  and  printing. 

Another  form  of  vocational  edu- 
cation, on-the-job-t raining,  is  com- 
bined with  academic  courses.  This 
provides  a  student  with  both  a  job 
and  a  chance  to  finish  his  high 
school  education.  Through  coopera- 
tion with  various  local  businessmen 
and  tradesmen,  schools  place  stu- 
dents in  jobs  with  a  future. 

In  one  state,  Ohio,  state  law  makes 
it  mandatory  for  all  school  districts 
to  have  job  training  programs  avail- 
able to  students.  In  most  other 
states,  training  is  constantly  increas- 
ing. 
Children  explore  careers 

Although  those  who  don't  go  to 


college  make  less  earnings  timn 
most  college  graduates,  they  still 
i-ank  highly  on  the  pay  scale  if 
trained  properly. 

Vocational  training  is  now  in  ex- 
perimental stages  in  the  lower 
grades  also.  Children  in  grade 
schools  are  allowed  to  explore  career 
possibilities.  This  is  a  part  of  a  new 
emphasis  on  making  career  open- 
ings known  to  students. 
Schools  dep»id  on  tuition 

Offering  training  to  graduates 
who  cannot  receive  vocational  edu- 
cation through  their  high  school,  are 
various  junior  colleges.  These  schools 
depend  on  tuition  fees.  For  this 
reason  they  must  offer  up-to-date 
classes. 

For  further  information  on  voca- 
tional training,  guidance  counselors 
offer  details. 


Occupational  kit  available 


An  Occupational  Exploration  Kit, 
published  by  Science  Research  As- 
sociates, Inc.,  is  available  to  Elm- 
hurst students  in  the  office  to 
broaden  outlooks  on  available  jobs. 

Step  one  is  an  elimination  process 
through  the  student's  word  and  num- 
ber ability,  his  educational  desires, 
whether  it  is  high  school  or  college 
gi-aduation  or  graduate  work  and 
his  special  interests.  The  10  selec- 
tions in  the  "mterest"  category  in- 
clude outdoors,  social  service,  mus- 
ical, computational,  persuasive,  cler- 
ical, literary  and  scientific  inter- 
ests. 

Job  eliminations  are  recorded  in 
the  DEK  student  record  book. 
Also  recorded  are  the  occupations 
the  student  is  interested  in  and  the 


jobs  his  parents  would  like  him  to 
explore. 

Fi-om  these  records,  several  oc- 
cupations are  recommended  to  the 
student  because  of  the  interests  he 
chose   and   his   educational   desires. 

These  choices  are  found  in  the 
Occupational  Briefs  which  give  cur- 
rent facts  on  the  400  jobs  des- 
scribed.  It  includes  a  history  of  the 
job,  duties  expected  and  working 
conditions.  Also  included  are  i-e- 
quirements  as  to  personal  qualifi- 
cations and  training,  ways  to  get 
started  in  that  particular  field, 
earnings  and  advancement  opport- 
(inities.  The  briefs  will  also  give 
references  to  where  more  inform- 
ation can  be  found. 


under-arm    spray    instead    of    pro- 
moting a  man  and  his  ideas. 

Lucas  thinks  McKay  should  run 
for  senator  .  ,  .  and  lose,  at  a 
mutual  profit.  McKay  would  become 
a  person  with  a  voice  to  reach  the 
people  of  California  and  America 
with  his  ideas  and  Lucas  would 
stand  to  gain  a  lot  of  money.  All  of 
this  is  wtbout  McKay  ever  accept- 
ing the  office  or  it's  responsibilities. 

Issues  are  disillusioning  j 

Throughout  the   film   the   people  | 
handle  the  issues  and  ideas  with  an 
air  of  falsehood  and  pretense  which  ^ 
was  quite  disillusioning.  It's  not  his  ■ 
stand  but  his  age,  appearance  and 
"Sellpower." 

Age  is  of  much  importance 
throughout  the  film,  both  the  age 
of  the  candidate  and  of  the  new 
voting  group  of  18  to  21  year-olds. 
Opponent  lost  in  plot 

McKay's  opponent  is  so  much  the 
old  cliche  that  he  is  lost  in  the  fast^ 
paced  progression  of  plot  and, 
events.  As  the  later  parts  of  the 
film  unfold  it  becomes  slowly  more 
evident  to  us,  the  audience,  and  the 
people  around  our  hero  (but  not  to 
McKay  himself)  that  something  is 
happening.  McKay  inevitably,  but 
not  so  much  expectedly,  wins  — 
leaving  both  the  hero  and  the  audi- 
ence to  wonder  "What  do  we  do 
now  .  .  .  1" 
Movie  proves  realistic 

The  cinematography  and  editing 
are  astoundingly  crisp  and  smooth. 
The  film  is  made  up  of  old  stock 
shots    from    past    campaigns    and 
rallies,  rehearsed  action  and  drama,  i 
spontaneous  stuff  and  a  lot  of  video-  i 
tape /television    work    blended    into  1 
an     excitingly    realistic    film,     Na-  ' 
tionally   known   reporters   and   poli- 
ticians  pplay  themselves   to   add  to 
the  realism.  There  are  even  some  at- 
mosphere shots  that  are  reminiscent 
of  the   now  classic  "Citizen  Kane." 
The  entire  film  is  assembled  in  the 
cinema  verite  style  and  technique  of 
news     reel/ documentary     editing 
which   tops   off  the    realistic   effect 
of  the  movie. 

Hardly  the  most  exceptional  film 
of  the  year  but  it's  entertaining  and 
interesting.

The  slow  digestion  of  violence  seems  to  be 
creeping  into  the  tolerance  of  our  migrating 
American  ways.  The  war  in  Indochina  has 
become  an  accepted  way  of  life.  We  look  at 
peace  movements  with  indifference  and  show 
more  concern  for  the  daily  Dow-Jones  reports 
than  the  American  numbers  of  killed  and 
maimed.  Bobby  Fischer  and  the  Olympics  are 
far  more  interesting  than  the  results  of  the 
new  Viet  Cong  offensive. 

We,  as  Americans,  have  acknowledged  the 
slow  creation  of  the  United  States'  death  ma- 
chine with  little  more  than  a  nod  or  a  quiet 


prayer.  An  unmerciful  machine  which  pro- 
duces bombs  and  graves  is  fed  by  the  land 
and  bones  of  the  Vietnamese  people. 

It  is  this  machine  of  silence  that  rarely  finds 
its  way  into  the  headlines  any  longer.  It  is  this 
machine  that  many  Americans  are  proud  to 
claim  as  an  extension  of  their  tax  dollars.  It 
is  this  machine  of  which  Americans  know  little. 

A  redirection  of  our  current  issues  and 
values  is  imminent  in  this  upcoming  election.  . 
Let  us  hope  this  redirection  will  rejuvinate 
our  own  economic  and  social  machine  and 
stall  our  political  machine  in  a  monsoon  mud- 
hole.

Vitamins  prove  hazardous 


String  along 

Sixteen  year  old 
Claudia  Weiss,  a  foreign 
exchange  student  from 
Weinheim  Germany,  finds 
playing  in  the  school 
orchestra  a  thrill. 
"Here  I  have  the  chance 
to  participate  in  a  school 
group,  where  in  Germany 
only  pnvate  lessons  can 
be  taken,"  stated  Claiidia. 
She  also  enjoys  the 
privilege  of  being  a 
7ne7nber  of  the  all  city 
orchestra.  Claudia  finds 
the  school  systein  here 
coinplicated  yet  interesting. 
"The  language  is  difficult 
of  course  but  the  people 
are  very  nice  and  helpful!" 
exclaimed  Claudia. 


by  Janet  Bell 

In  our  health-oriented  soci- 
ety vitamins  are  the  newest 
fad  and  today  nutrition  con- 
scious teenagers  swallow  mas- 
sive doses  of  vitamins  as  types 
of  "cure  alls."  Such  falacies  as 
vitamin  C  curing  the  common 
cold  and  vitamin  A  solving  skin 
problems  still  remain. 

Vitamins  were  discovered  over  two 
centuries  ago  when  soldiers  on  trop- 
ical islands  would  eat  much  citrus 
fi-uit  and  suffer  little  from  scurvy. 

Vitamins  are  vital  to  your  health 
and  a  necessity  to  live.  Basically 
found  in  food  made  by  bacteria  or 
a  vitamin  is  an  organic  substance 
reproduced  in  laboritories. 
Proceissed  food  lacke  vitamins 

Most  unprocessed  foods  contain 
some  vitamins.  Processed  foods  such 
119  candies  and  snack  foods  have 
little  or  no  vitamin  content.  Con- 
cerning health  foods,  there  is  no 
real  proof  that  organic  foods  an; 
more  nutritious  than  those  grown 
with  the  aid  of  chemical  fertilizer. 

Dr.  George  Briggs,  a  professor 
of  nutrition  states.  "Plants  make 
their  own  vitamins  so  the  vitamin 
content  will  be  the  same  whether 
the  plants  are  grown  in  organic  or 
chemical  fertilizer." 

Can  taking  vitamins  solve  your 
deficiency  problems  ?  "No"  says 
Margaret  Markani,  executive  di- 
rector of  the  Vitamin  Information 
Bureau.  "You  can't  rely  on  supple- 
mentary \'itamins  to  do  the  total 
nutrition  job.  Food  is  necessary  he- 
cause  vitamins  are  not  complete 
meals." 

Vitamin  requirements  vary 

Taking  a  lot  of  vitamins  is  not 
the  nutritional  answer.  Personal 
vitamin  needs  vary  depending  on 
age  and  general  physical  health. 
For  supplement  vitamins  to  be  effec- 
tive one  must  first  maintain  a  bal- 
anced diet. 

Vitamins    work    together    to    keep 


Juniors  relate  experiences 


Junior  Pete  McCampbell 
spent  time  this  summer  tour- 
ing Alaska  while  junior  Dave 
Berry  traveled  to  Hawaii  with 
a  musical  group. 

Pete  along  with  his  father,  trav- 
eled to  Alaska  June  21  through  July 
15  totaling  a  time  of  88  hours  and 
approximately  4,200  miles. 

"We  heard  about  the  challenge  of 
driving  to  Alaska,  so  we  decided  to 
meet  that  challenge,"  stated  Pete. 
Pete  and  his  father  also  wanted 
to  e.vplore  the  Northwestern  part  of 
the  continent. 
First  destination  Fairbanks 

"My  Dad  bought  a  ti-uck  for  the 
journey  with  the  intention  of  donat- 
ing it  once  ive  were  in  Alaska.  The 
purpose  of  this  was  that  wp  planned 
to  fly  home  after  a  months  time.  He 
donated  it  to  a  Girl  Scout  counselor 
in  Fairbanks  who  had  some  use  for 
the  truck," 

Their  first  destination  point  was 
Fairbanks.  "The  city  wasn't  as  big 
as  I  expected  and  there  weren't 
many  people."  Along  with  his  obser- 
vation Pete  felt  the  city  was  basic- 


ally dull  and  uii interesting,"  While 
visiting  Anchorage,  Pete  thought 
that  it  was  the  biggest  and  nicest 
city  in  Alaska.  Both  Anchorage  and 
Fairbanks  were  clean"  he  continued, 
"and  each  has  fairly  good  road  sys- 
tems," 

Leaving  Anchorage,  Pete  headed 
north  to  Pt.  Barrel.  "Pt.  Barrel  is 
the  northernmost  part  in  the  world," 
he  explained.  "It  was  the  most  prim- 
itive situation  I  have  ever  seen."  He 
went  onto  say  that  there  was  no 
i-unning  water  and  that  the  people 
drank  Coke  instead.  "Water  was 
brought  in  kegs  and  had  not  yet 
been  purified." 
Pete  visits  Seattle 

"The  temperature  at  Pt.  Barrel 
was  approx.  38  degrees  which  was 
fairly  warm  compared  to  the  winter 
seasons," 

Departing  .\Iaska  from  Juneuo, 
Pete  took  a  boat  around  the  various 
cities,  finally  reaching  Seattle, 
Washington,  From  there,  Pete  and 
his   father   returned   home. 

"The  trip  as  an  overall  was  quite 
an  experience  and  I  thought  it  was 
very   worthwhile,   I   actually  felt  as 


though  I  accomplished  something," 
he  concluded. 

".■\rizona  de,ssert  with  Los  Angeles 
traffic,"  said  Dave  Berry,  "was  one 
of  my  first  impressions  of  Hawaii." 
Dave  spent  a  week  of  his  summer 
vacation  in  Hawaii  with  a  musical 
group  known  as  the  "Congregation." 
Sponsored  by  the  Calvary  Temple, 
the  "Congregation"  was  one  of  many 
musical  groups  to  sing  for  the  Open 
Door  Coffee  House  in  Honolulu. 

Dave  spent  time  on  Waikkiki 
Beach  surfing  and  skin  diving,  along 
with  swimming  were  everyday  water 
activities.  The  group  performed 
early  in  the  evening  and  then  made 
themselves  a  part  of  Hawaii's  night 
life.  Dave  recalls  the  main  street  as 
the   place   to   find  the  "action." 

Dave  compares  attitudes 

Dave    compared    the     Hawaiian's 

attitude  toward  Americans  to  the 
Indians  attitude  toward  the  white 
man.  "Resentment  towards  us  as  in- 
vaders who  took  their  land  and  turn- 
ed it  into  a  huge  tourist  attraction 
is  very  strong  and  quite  open," 

Climbing  Diamond  Head  mountain 
which  is  actually  a  dormant  vol- 
cano,   Dave    and    two    friends    were

Editor's  Note:  The  following 
story  contains  excerpts  from  an 
article  in  Readers  Digest  enti- 
tled "Warning:  X-rays  May  Be 
Dangerous  to  Your  Health." 

Doctors  and  exjierts  arc  becoming 
increasingly  concerned  that  X-ray.s 
may  present  a  major  threat  to  the 
genetic  inheritance  of  children. 

Medical  X-rays  are  packed  with 
great  energy.  The  beams  rip  with 
lightening  speed  through  walls  of 
cells  altering  their  metabolism, 
changing  their  character  and  des- 
troying   them    many    times. 

K,Z,  Morgan,  director  of  the 
Health  Services  Division,  Oak  Ridge 
National  Laboritones,  estimates  that 
'Ipaths  due  to  X-ray  induced  diseases 
ranging  from  :iOO()  to  -lOOO  annually. 
jiut  it  is  not  Leukemia  and  cancer, 
it  is  the  threat  to  reproductive  cells 
that  i."!  causing  the  most  concern. 
Ji-ray  threatens  pregnancy 

No  one  knows  how  much  of  a 
radiation  dose  will  cause  changes 
in  genes.  K.Z.  .Morgan  estimates 
that  as  many  as  30,000  maligancies, 
stillbirths  and  abortions  may  occur 
each  year  in  the  future  because  of 
^'■ni"tic  damage, 

,Mulations  almost  always  produce 
'liimaged  children  and  bring  an  rn- 
frr-aaingly  greater  burden  to  society. 
One  study  indicates  that  there  may 
he  increased  rink  of  childhood  cnn- 
cpix  a»  a  result  of  X-ray  exposure 
I"  the  mother  before  birth. 


The  greatest  X-ray  threat  comes 
during  pregnancy.  A  Hai-vard  study 
of  more  than  700,000  infants  in 
United  States  hospitals,  showed  a 
forty  percent  increase  in  leukemia 
and  cancer  of  the  central  nei-v'ous 
sy.^tem  in  children  whose  mothers 
were  X-rayed  during  pregnancy. 
Doctors  oj>cratc  machines 

iMany  people  are  subjected  to  X- 
rays  needlessly.  One  trouble  is  that 
too  many  machines  in  the  United 
States  are  owned  and  operated  by 
physicians,  dentists  and  chiroprac- 
tors who  have  no  education  in  health 
physics  or  radiation  protection. 

Only  thiee  states  require  that  X- 
ray  technicians  be  licensed,  and  two 
of  those  three  exclude  the  physician 
because  he  ha-s  an  M,D.  after  his 
name.  The  only  real  X-ray  train- 
ing the  non-radiologist  gets  is  from 
X-ray  equipment  .salesman  who  may 
be  more  interested  in  selling  mach- 
ines than  protecting  the  patient, 

But  in  many  cases  radiation  pro- 
tection is  easy  to  provide.  One  way 
to  do  that  is  to  use  a  collimator. 
Some  small  progress  is  being  made 
in  reducing  the  routine  use  of  X- 
lay  such  as  the  elimination  of  mass 
chest  X-rays. 

The  Bureau  of  Radiological  Hoalbh 
and  the  American  College  of  Radio- 
logy have  established  guidelines  and 
sent  them  out  in  the  form  of  hook- 
lets  to  every  user  of  X-ray  ec|uip- 
ment  in  the  United  States, 


The  single  most  important  step, 
however,  is  the  enforcement  of 
standards  for  everyone  who  operates 
X-ray  equipment.  This  is  the  dec- 
ision of  the  states  and  all  states 
have  either  not  established  standards 
or  have  a  lack  of  funds  so  their 
standards  can't  be  enforced. 
Decline  in  radiation  dose 

Increasing  awareness  of  X-ray 
dangers  has  produced  some  good  re- 
sults. Notably  there  is  a  decline  in 
a  measurement  known  as  the  "gene- 
tically significant  dose." 

For  all  its  dangers,  the  X-ray 
is  too  important  to  abandon.  Until 
everyone  who  operates  X-ray  equip- 
ment is  properly  trained  and  made 
to  follow  standards  one  must  ex- 
amine their  need  for  X-rays.  The 
X-ray  will  resume  its  role  as  a 
vital  weapon  against  disease  and  not 
to   become   a    threat   to   health.

Too  much  of  one  vitamin  and  not 
enough  of  another  can  create  an 
imbalance  in  your  system.  It's  safe 
to  take  a  multiple  vitamin  because 
they    contain    daily   needs.

shorts  the  boys  climbed  the  vol-

the  middle  of  the  day  when  the  sun 
is  very  hot.  Our  feet  were  blistered 
and  bleeding  so  climbing  down  was 
painful."  "Walking  around  the  top 
of  the  mountain  crater  we  found  a 
lower  part  where  we  could  start 
our  climb  down.  .-Vbout  one  third  of 
the  way  down  we  were  faced  with 
thirty  foot  cliffs.  We  had  to  scale 
the  cliffs  to  reach  the  ground.  When 
we  did  we  were  told  there  was  a 
hundred  dollar  fine  "for  being  on 
the  volcano  because  of  the  danger 
and  the  fact  that  others  had  died 
trying   to   climb    the   mountain."

Dreams  can  reveal 
feelings  and  thoughts 

People  might  enjoy  better  health  and  inner  peace  if 

they    would    try    to    i-oooll,    „n.1,>riit^nd,    and    net    on    thpvr 

dreams,  according  to  Dr.  Julius  Segal,  a  psychologist  at  the 
National  Institute  of  Mental  Health. 

Sleep  scientists  have  discovered  that  dreaming  is  an 
important  ingi-edient  of  sleep.  A  cycle  of  dreaming  reoccurs 
approximately  every  90  minutes,  and  these  are  part  of  a 
definite  rhythm  of  sleep.  When  a  person  falls  asleep,  he 
sinks  into  increasingly  deep  sleep,  then  rises  up  to  lighter 
sleep.  About  70  minutes  after  falling  asleep,  closed  eyes 
begin  to  move  rapidly.  This  is  known  as  rapid  eye  move- 
ment, or  R.E.M.  sleep. 
Dreaming  restores  proteins 

Psychologists  and  psychiatrists  have  found  that  by 
waking  sleeping  volunteers  out  of  R.E.M.  sleep,  they  could 
get  answers  to  questions  about  dreams  that  man  has  been 
asking  for  years.  According  to  Dr.  Segal,  one  of  the  func- 
tions of  E.E.M.  dreaming  may  be  to  keep  brain  tissues  in 
good  working  order,  to  restore  essential  brain  proteins 
which  are  needed  for  memory  and  learning. 

Contrary  to  popular  belief,  dreams  are  often  in  color. 
Research  suggests  that  everyone  dreams  in  color  but  most 
people  pay  little  attention  to  it.  In  fact,  most  people  don't 
bother  to  remember  their  dreams  unless  they  become  im- 
portant to  them.  It  is  unlikely,  however,  that  dreams  can 
be  premonitions  that  can  foretell  the  future. 
Dreams  are  symbolic 

The  way  to  understand  one's  own  dreams,  says  Dr. 
Segal,  is  to  remember  them  and  look  at  them  sqilarely. 
About  90  percent  of  the  dreams  we  recall  will  be  ordinary 
and  uninteresting,  but  the  last  dreams  of  the  night  tend  to 
be  more  basic,  dramtic  and  symbolic.  Dreams  are  a  precious 
and  fascinating  ingredient  of  everyone's  daily  living.  The 
fact  that  they  occur  during  sleep  does  not  lessen  their  value.

Football  team  tries  to  maintain  win 
streak  tonight  against  the  Chargers 


Block  it! 


Senior  John  Hoard,  number  73,  reaches  high  in  the  air  to  block 
a  Northrop  field  goal  attempt  in  last  Friday  night's  football 
game.  The  Trojans  went  on  to  beat  the  Bruins,  who  were 
ranked  in  the  state.  The  team  will  travel  to  Carroll  tonight  in 
their  second  game  of  the  season.  Carroll  is  undefeated  in  the 
Allen  County  Athletic  Conference. 


The  Trojans  will  attempt  to  keep 
tlipir  morale  high  after  an  upset 
victory  over  state  ranked  Northrop 
when  they  meet  the  Carroll  Charg- 
ers tonight  at  7:30  in  Carroll's  sta- 
dium. The  Chargers  are  unbeaten  in 
two  starts  having  defeated  last 
year's  AC  AC  champions  Norwell, 
12-&  and  Eastside,  28-13. 

The  Chargers,  coached  by  Mr. 
George  McKinney  for  six  years, 
have  nine  returning  lettermen  from 
last  year's  team  which  compiled  a 
1-8  record.  In  last  year's  game  Elm- 
huvst  won  30-13  by  completely  domi- 
nating the  second  half  with  a  fine 
offensive  display. 

According  to  head  coach  George 
McKinney,  Carroll  will  use  the  pow- 
er-I  formation  in  the  offensive  back- 
field.  Last  year  Carroll  thoroughly 
changed    their    offense    to    a    wide 


Trojans  defeat  Northrop 


spread  formation  against  Elmhurst 
and  caught  the  Trojan  defense  well 
off-balance.  This  year  the  Trojan 
defense  will  have  to  retain  the  run- 
ning and  passing  of  Carroll  quar- 
terback George  Cooper.  Other  stand- 
outs on  the  Chargers  offensive  unit 
are  fullback  Gary  Houser  and  end 
Dan  Poyser. 
Chargers  require  fast  runners 

The  Chargers  employ  a  5-2-4  for- 
mation on  defense.  This  should  be 
difficult  to  pass  against  but  easier 
to  run  against  because  of  few  de- 
fensive men  on  the  line  of  scrim- 
mage. 

Carroll  is  a  member  of  the  rugged 
Allen  County  Athletic  Conference, 
including  such  teams  as  Woodlan, 
losing  one  of  23  games,  and  Ad- 
ams Central,  undefeated  in  two 
starts   this   season. 

Head  coach  Warren  Hoover 
stated  "We  must  not  become  over 


confident,  we  can  expect  almost  any- 
thing from  Carroll.  Nobody  was  in- 
jured in  the  Northrop  game  so  if 
we  play  good  football  we'll  win,"  he 
concluded. 
Carroll  proves  small 

"We  only  have  32  h-fj^fut  for 
the  team  and  thev  -jfe  smsill  and  in- 
experienced .-'^o'  we'll  be  playing 
.:ophomores  and  juniors  mostly," 
commented  CaiToll  ctiacu  Gcm-g*^ 
McKinney.  "We  enjoy  playing  Elm- 
hurst and  feel  we  have  a  good 
working  relationship  as  the  games 
help  our  team  and  conference,"  he 
added. 

Other  games  include  South  Side 
meeting  Bishop  Luers  in  a  south- 
ern division  game  and  Wayne  facing 
Bishop  Dwenger.  In  the  northern 
division,  Northrop  will  be  playing 
North  Side  and  the  Snider  Panthers 
will  be  traveling  to  Elkhart  Me- 
morial. 


by  Male  Finlayson 

An  estimated  3,000  fans  were 
on  their!  feet  as  Northrop's  Bob 
Daniels '  attempted  a  22-yard 
field  goal  with  nine  seconds  re- 
maining in  the  game  and  Elm- 
hurst leading  13-12. 

The  ending  was  much  like  last 
year's  game  when  Daniels  made  a 
"last  second  field  goal  to  give  North- 
rop a  9-7  victorj';  but  this  time  his 
attempt  failed  and  Elmhurst  had 
beaten  Northrop,  who  was  ranked 
20th  in  the  state. 
Game  develops  pattern 

Although  Northrop  dominated  the 
game  staejsticalJy,  they  were  unable 
to  come  yp  with  key  plays  when 
they  were'^deep  in  Ti-ojan  territory. 
The  game  ifell  into  a  general  pattern 
of  Northrop  driving  deep  and  losing 
the  ball  on',  fumbles  or  interceptions. 
From  there  Elmhurst  would  nm 
several  play^  with  minimal  success 
then  senior  Pete  Tumley  would 
boom  a  punt  and  Northrop  would 
start  over  again. 

Failing  tu  move  the  ball  after  the 
initial  kickoff,  Tumley  punted  to 
Northrop's  defensive  halfback  Jim 
Mosselot  who  fielded  the  punt  on  his 
own  38-yard  line  and  sprinted  his 
way  back  to  a  6-0  Bi-uin  lead.  North- 
rop's Daniels  then  missed  the  extra 
point  with  more  than  nine  minutes 
to  play  in  the  first  quarter. 
Trojans  recover  fumble 

Momenti!  later  senior  defensive 
halfback  Nate  Brown  recovered  a 
Bruin  fumble  on  Northrop's  24-yard 
line.  Two  plays  later  senior  half- 
back Bob  Paschall  went  10  yard.s 
around  left  end  via  some  good  block- 
ing and  excellent  running.  Senior 
Tom  Kennerk  then  added  the  extra- 
point  making  the  icore  7-6,  Trojan's 
favor. 

Late  in  \  the  second  quarter  the 
Bruins  matched  to  the  Trojan  22- 
yard  line  where  Northrop  quai-ter- 
back  Craig  Klein  threw  a  perfect 
strike  to  receiver  Wid  Knight  which 
gave  Northtop  tht  lead  at  halftime, 

12-7.  ■; 

The  Bruiins  received  the  second 
half  kickoffi  failed  to  move  the  ball 
and  were,  forced  to  punt.  Elmhurst 
took  over  on  the  Bniin  40-yard  line 
and  set  ut)  the  game  winning  play. 

Paschall!  ramified  the  first  down 


on  a  reverse.  Then  senior  quarter- 
hack  Dave  Butler  hit  senior  end 
Don  Miller  who  neatly  passed  to 
senior  halfback  John  .\dams.  Adams 
then  flashed  into  the  endzone  un- 
touched. Kennerk's  e.xtra  point  was 
wide  but  Elmhurst  led  13-12. 
Northrop  threatened  twice  in  the 


final  stanza  but  couldn't  produce 
any  points.  Sophomore  Gary  Howard 
intercepted  a  Bruin  aerial  in  the 
endzone  which  enderl  one  drive.  The 
other  threat  ended  in  Daniel's  22- 
yard  field  goal  attempt  with  nine 
seconds  remaining. 

"I  was  pleased  with  the  way  the 


team  came  back  after  being  down  so 
early  in  the  game,"  commented  head 
coach  Warren  Hoo\'^er.  "Northrop 
was  a  good  team  and  we  had  to  do  a 
lot  of  things  right  to  be  victorious," 
he  added.  "We  have  a  lot  of  work  to 
do  though  as  they  pushed  us  around 
too  much,"  he  concluded. 


Tennis  begins 

Racketmen  down  Luers 


Tennis  started  its  season  off 
on  a  good  note  last  Tuesday  at 
Elmhurst  as  the  Trojan  team 
beat  Bishop  Luers  6-1.  Howev- 
er, on  the  two  succeeding  days 
the  racketmen  fell  to  North 
Side  0-7  and  Homestead  High 
School  1-6. 

Junior  Skye  Heiney,  defeated  the 
Knights  number  one  man,  Jeff  Rose 
8-4.  Senior  Jeff  Hibler  beat  Mike 
Fridley  8-3.  Senior  Bob  Frank 
blanked  Jim  Conroy  8-0  and  soph- 
omore Greg  Hershberger  downed 
Greg  Geary  8-1  in  the  fourth  singles 
match. 

Heiney  and  Hibler  combined  to 
form  the  number  one  doubles  team 
and  were  victorious  over  Rose  and 
Geary  by  a  score  of  8-4.  The  only 
loss  for  Elmhurst  came  in  the  num- 
ber two  doubles  match  when  Jim 
Conroy  and  Tom  Coolign  defeated 
juniors  Bernie  Kampschmidt  and 
Jeff  Morsches  8-5.  Junior  Mark 
Liendecker  and  senior  Matt  Hunter 
won  the  final  doubles  match  over 
Mike  Caccamo  and  Gary  Andorfer 
8-4. 
North  Side  crushes  Trojans 

A  strong  North  Side  tennis  team 
crushed  the  Trojans  by  winning  all 
four  singles  and  all  three  doubles 
matches.  Skye  Heiney  fell  to  a  very 
stronge  player,  Rick  Seaman  1-8 
while   Jeff    Hibler    was    downed   by 


Safety  proves  fatal  as 
reserves  lose  game 


Glen  Nevogt  2-8.  In  the  closest 
match  of  the  night,  Bob  Frank  was 
outlasted  by  North  Side's  Dave  Kitz- 
miller  8-10.  Greg  Hershberger  fell 
to  Steve  Mays  2-8. 

In  the  doubles  competition,  the 
combination  of  Skye  Heiney  and 
Mark  Leindecker  were  defeated  by 
Rick  Seaman  and  Steve  Mays  1-8. 
Jeff  Hibler  and  Bob  Frank  fell  to 
Glen  Nevogt  and  Dave  Kitzmiller 
6-8  after  leading  6-4.  Bernie  Kamp- 
schmidt and  Greg  Hershberger  lost 
to  Dave  Beard  and  Jim  Robinson 
2-8  in  the  final  doubles  match  of 
the  afternoon. 

Traveling  to  Homestead  High 
School  for  their  third  match  of  the 
season  proved  disasterous  for  the 
Elmhurst  tennis  team.  Skye  Heiney 
lost  to  freshman  Ken  Pederson  1-C, 
2-6.  Jeff  Hibler  lost  in  a  close 
match  to  Tim  Simon  6-3,  0-6,  3-6. 
Greg  Hershberger  was  the  only  one 
to  register  a  victory  for  the  Tro- 
jans winning  7-6,  4-0,  6-4. 
Doubles  teams  fail 

No  doubles  teams  could  manage  a 
win  as  Skye  Heiney  and  Mark  Lein- 
decker lost  to  Tim  Simon  and  Chris

3505  QUIMBY  ARCADE 

Around  (he  corner  Irom  the  Cfyde  Thealer 


by  Walt  Royer 

The  reserve  football  team  opened 
its  season  last  Thursday,  September 
7,  against  the  North  Side  Redskins. 
Though  they  lost  2-0  on  a  safety 
scored  by  the  Redskins  late  in  the 
third  quarter,  prospects  look  prom- 
ising for  the  young  team. 

The  Trojans  were  pushed  back  to 
their  goal  line  as  a  result  of  a  North 
Side  punt.  On  a  third  down,  quar- 
terback Tony  Belcher,  dropped  back 
to  pass,  saw  all  his  receivers  cov- 
ered and  was  engulfed  by  the  on- 
rushing  Redskin  line. 
Fumbles  marr  game 

Fumbles  marred  play  for  both 
teams  as  neither  was  able  to  sus- 
tain a  long  drive.  The  rest  of  the 
gamp  was  not  dominated  by  either 
team, 

Mark  Spearg  played  defensive 
halfbiick  and  managed  to  pull  in  a 
Redwkin  patm  for  the  only  intercep- 
tion of  the  game.  Jim  Klimkoffaki 


led    the    team    in    tackling    for    the 
Trojans. 

The  reserve  football  team  will  go 
up  against  Northrop  September  21.

Carroll  In  game 


Gotcha! 


Senior  Don  Miller  (85)  and  Charlie  William  (641  do  the  blocking 
for  running  back  senior  Bob  Paschall  as  he  scurries  up  the  middle. 
The  Trojans  defeated  the  Carroll  Chargers  last  Friday  night  12-7  in 
their  first  away  game.  Tonight  the  team  travels  to  South  Bend  to 
challenge  St.  Joe. 


The  Trojan  oMensive  backlield 
and  (he  defensive  line  gave  fine  pre- 
formances  last  Friday  night  when 
Elmhurst  defeated  the  Carroll  Char- 
gers f2— 7  The  backlield  gained 
230  yards  on  36  carries  whife  the 
line  had  a  persislant  rush  thai 
forced  Ihe  Carroll  quarterback  to 
throw  iwo  Intercepted  passes. 

Although  Elmhurst  appeared  to 
have  more  power,  they  could  not 
put  their  total  oflense  togeiher  con- 
slstantly  enough  to  score  as  tre- 
quently  as  it  seemed  they  should 
have.  Apparently  the  Trojans  were 
over  confident  as  it  was  obvious  the 
Chargers  were  much  more  keyed 
up 

Carroll  threatened  early  in  the 
first  quarler  when  Elmhurst  fum- 
bled a  punt  on  Carroll's  40— yard 
line  The  enthused  Chargers  did 
some  hard  running  and  good  pass- 
ing to  march  to  the  Elmhurst 
20 — yard  line  where  the  drive 
stalled  and  a  field  goal  attempt  fell 
short. 

Then  Efmhurst  began  to  move, 
grinding  out  first  downs  mainly  on 
the  running  of  senior  fullback  Paul 
Watters  and  junior  fullback  Ernest 
Essex.  Walters  rambled  the  last  14 
yards  of  the  90 — yard  drive  to  give 
Elmhurst  a  6—0  lead  with  three 
minutes  remaining  in  the  firsi  quar- 
ler      Senior     Tom     Kennerk's 


extra — point  was  blocked. 

The  Trojans  received  the  second 
half  kickoft  and  on  the  inital  play 
from  scrimmage  senior  halfback 
John  Adams  broke  through  a  hole 
on  Ihe  right  side  of  the  line, 
reversed  his  field  and  with  some 
beautiful  open  field  running  went 
58  yards  for  a  touchdown.  During 
Ihe  play  Adams  received  some  good 
downfield  blocking  from  senior 
guard  Charles  Williams.  The 
Trojans  went  for  two  but  failed  and 
the  score  was  12—0  with  just  sec- 
onds gone  in  Ihe  third  quarter 

Thethird  quarter  was  highlighted 
by  more  tine  runs  by  Adams  and 
sophomore  halfback  Gary  Howard. 
Other  than  that  the  third  quarter 
action  was  limited  to  Ihe  Iwo  teams 
trading  punts. 

Late  in  Ihe  fourth  quarter  Carroll 
took  over  on  the  Elmhurst  49  and 
under  the  leadership  of  their  quar- 
terback George  Cooper,  they 
marched  down  the  field  on  a  bal- 
anced passing  and  running  attack, 
scoring  with  30  seconds  remaining 
in  the  game. 

In  general  it  was  a  disappointing 
evening  lor  both  the  Elmhurst  fans 
and  their  team.  Coach  Hoover 
slated  Carroll  was  a  better  team 
than  we  expected  and  Elmhurst 
only  played  as  well  as  they  had  to 
to  win." 


Trojans  to  play 
Saint  Joe  third 


The  Trojan  football  team  will 
have  to  be  at  Ihe  peak  of  physical 
and  mental  perfection  tomorrow  as 
Ihey  travel  to  South  Bend  to  play 
7th  ranked  South  Bend  SainI 
Joseph.  Saint  Joseph  has  a  well  bal- 
anced oflense,  with  powerful  runn- 
ing matched  with  a  precise  passing 
attack.  The  South  Bend  school  also 
boasts  a  stiff  defense  compriled  ot 
returning  letlermen  in  every  posi- 
tion. 

Sami  Joe  has  an  excellanl  quar- 
terback, senior  Mike  fi^cCray,  who 
is  6  leel  1  inch  tall  and  weighs  185 
pounds  Since McCray is suchafine 
passer,  Ihe  key  to  a  Trojan  victory 
will  probably  lie  in  Ihe  combined 
efforts  of  the  defensive  line  and  the 
defensive  secondary.  Other  out- 
standing preformers  on  their 
pro — type  offense  are  senior  ful- 


lback Steve  Hannigan  and  senior 
end  John  Reinbold 

On  defense.  Saint  Joe  has  a  five 
man  front  with  their  tackles  playing 
well  off  the  line,  similar  to  linebac- 
kers The  two  standouts  on  the 
defensive  squad  are  senior  tackle 
Pete  Garney  and  senior  linebacker 
Kevin  Dorrian. 

The  South  Bend  learns  head 
coach  Bill  Teegarden  has  26  return- 
ing lettermen  from  last  year's  team 
which  posted  an  8 — 2  record.  This 
year  they  are  1—1  having  lost  to  tilth 
ranked  Elkhart  Central  15 — 8  and 
having  beaten  South  &end

"It  should  be  tun  lo  play  a  team 
so  highly  rated,  but  I  feel  Ihey  will 
be  much  like  Bishop  Leurs  or

to  even  season  record 


The  reserve  football  team  had 
their  firsI  taste  o(  victory  f^londay, 
Sept.  11  when  they  beat  Bishop 
Luers  12—8. 

At  the  beginning  of  the  second 
quarter,  the  Troajan  offense  drove 
to  the  three  yard  line  but  was 
slopped  short  by  the  Knighfs 
defense.  On  third  down  a  penalty 
was  called  on  the  Trojans  leaving 
them  the  inability  to  score  with  one 
down  left.  They  were  forced  to  turn 
the  ball  over  to  the  Knights  who  had 
their  backs  to  the  goal  line. 

Late  in  the  second  quarter  the 
Knights  connected  a  pass  to  their 
light  end  who  easily  scored.  Their 
fullback  ran  around  the  left  end  and 
managed  to  sneak  in  tor  the  extra 
point  fails. 

Early  in  the  third  quarter  the 
Trojans  penetrated  the  Knight  40 
yard  line.  On  third  down  and  long 
yardage,  quarterback  Dave  Cam- 
pbell found  halfback  Raymone 
Reese  open  downfield  He  threw  a 
spiral  between  iwo  defenders. 
Reese  spun  away  from  the  would 
be  tacklers  and  into  the  end  zone. 
The  extra  point  try  failed  when  ful- 
lback Jim  Kcok  iried  to  scramble 
through  the  middle  and  was  thrown 
by  the  angry  Knight  defense 

Shortly  after,  the  fired  up  Trojan 
defense  caused  a  fumble  close  to 


the  Knight  forty  yard  line.  The 
offense  quickly  drove  within  ten 
yards  of  the  goal  line  On  an  end 
sweep,  Curl  is  Underwood  sprinted 
past  three  defenders  and  into  the 
end  zone  for  the  second  Trojan 
score. 

With  only  a  minute  and  a  hair  left 
in  Ihe  game,  the  spirited  Trojan 
delense  held  Ihe  Knighis  within 
their  own  territory.  In  Ihe  closing 
seconds  they  recovered  another 
fumble,  ruining  Luer's  chances  of 
winning. 


The  Elmhurst  tennis  team 
travelled  to  Kendalville  last  Monday 
only  to  find  rain  cancelling  their 
meet  against  East  Noble.  This  was 
perhaps  the  besi  thing  that  hap- 
pened to  the  Trojans  all  week  as 
they  lost  to  Concordia  0—7  and 
South  Side  3—4. 

The  Concordia  Cadets  won  their 
fourth  straight  city  series  match  and 
are  well  on  their  way  to  winning  the 
city  crownafler  defeating  Elmhurst 
easily.

Seniors  Jerri  Lip  arid  Nancy  Fincher  are 
pictured  in  the  courtyard  as  Elmhurst's 
representatives  from  the  Ayre's  and  Pen- 
ny's teen  fashion  board. 


Eailors  nole:  the  following  is  a 
llrst  In  a  series  of  articles  concern- 
ing evironmental  concervallon 
and  pollution  In  the  United  States 
and  around  ttie  Fort  Wayne  area. 
Two  veai=>  diit,  carlh  uay  was 
celebrated  and  three  years  after 
Congress  crealed  the  Environmen- 
tal Protection  Agency,  ecological 
advances  are  still  moving  around 
the  country. 

In  Roanoke  a  youth  board  was 
responsible  lor  a  state  wide  law 
which  will  prevent  the  sale,  produc- 
tion, processing  or  Iransportalion 
ol  any  animal  on  the  American  lisi 
of  endangered  species.  In  Iowa  City, 
Iowa  tfie  youth  board  present  a 
local  pollution  expose'  in  a  slide 
show.  In  Forth  Worth.  Texas 
another  youth  board  devised  a 
recycling  program. 

101  kinds  of  animals  in  this  coun- 
try are  threatened  with  extinction 
so  New  York  and  Massachusetts 
have  passed  laws  to  protect  them 
and  back  up  existing  federal  legisla- 
tion. 
Water  pollution  spreads 

Nitrogen  supersaturation  is  one 
of  Ihe  major  problems  in  swift 
fivers.  It  occurs  when  water  falls 
over  a  dam,  trapping  air  and  push- 
ing it  under  the  surface  of  the  pool 
below.  The  pressure  is  increased 
forcing  too  much  nitrogen  into  the 
water.  This  nitrogen  usually  is 
released  by  being  brought  to  the 
surface  by  the  currents  ot  a  river 
The  waters  of  the  Columbia  River 
are  slowed  by  dozens  of  generating 
dams. 

Instead  ol  escaping,  nitrogen 
concentrations  increase  as  the 
water  tumbles  through  one  dam 
after  another  across  Oregon, 
Washington,  Idaho,  and  British 
Columbia,  Canada 

Nitrogen  solutions  up  to  42  per- 
cent above  normal  have  been 
found.  Biologists  estimate  solu- 
tions ol  10  percent  can  injure  a  fish. 
and  those  of  more  than  25  percent 


are  usually  fatal.  In  dangerous  com- 
bination wilh  this  is  the  instinct  of 
salmon  to  move  to  Ihe  sea  until  they 
are  attracted  back  to  the  place  of 
their  birth  tor  reproducing.  Obeymg 
these  instincts,  lish  swim  through 
the  heavy  nitrogen  concentrations, 
which  last  year  caused  90  percent 
of  (hem  to  die 
Oil  causesdevaslatlon 

Until  recently  most  people 
thought  the  oceans  were  loo  vast 
to  be  seriously  altecled  by  oil  spills. 
Oil  contains  several  substances 
highly  toxic  to  sea  lite  It  smothers, 
burns  internal  and  external  organs 
and  finally  kills. 

The  survival  rate  of  sea  birds 
altecled  by  the  big  Santa  Barbara 
spill  was  only  three  birds  per  1000 


treated.  And  since  the  great  major- 
ity of  oil  spills  are  found  inonnostto 
waters  at  refoery  ports  in  harbors. 
bays,  cnanriBia,  and  within  ten  miles 
of  shore  that  teems  with  the  tiny 
organisms  which  support  the  chain 
of  marine  hie  all  the  way  up  to  the 
whale,  these  spills  are  particularly 
devastating, 

Thr-^e  coastal  slates,  Maine, 
Washington  ana  iviassacnusens 
have  produced  strong  statutes  pro- 
viding for  strict  liability  lor  oil  spills. 
Maine's  law  is  the  nation's  stron- 
gest and  Its  constitutionality  is 
being  challenged  in  the  State  Sup- 
reme Court 

Enough  such  laws  will  take  oil-

first  priority.  The  ocean  belongs  to 
everyone,  let's  keep  it  alive.

Walking  betters  health, 
brightens  disposition 

by  Janet  Bell . 

Today's  doctors  are  making  statements  about  the 
benefits  of  brisk  walking  ttiat  gave  medical  facts  as  a  basis. 
•'Walking  briskly,  not  just  ambling  along,  is  the  simplest 
and  also  one  of  the  best  iorms  of  exercise. "  says  heart 
specialist  Dr.  Paul  Dudley  White.  "It  is  the  easiest  excerise 
for  most  individuals,  one  that  can  be  done  without  equip- 
ment in  any  weather  and  into  very  old  age." 

All  the  benefits  from  daily  walking  are  related  to  the 
increased  oxygen  intake,  greater  heart  exercise  and  better 
blood  circulation  this  exercise  provides.  No  other  creature 
plants  down  a  heel  and  rolls  on  a  sole  in  movement  In 
which  both  feet  are  on  the  ground  only  25  percent  of  the 
time. 

Fifth  century  Greeks  believed  that  walking  opened  their 
minds  and  helped  them  crack  problems  of  logic  and 
philossphy.  Former  President  Harry  Truman  thought  that 
a  walk  before  breakfast  was  theraputic. 

Walking  also  clears  your  mind  by  bringing  blood  to  the 
head  and  oxygen  to  the  blood.  Logical  thought  is  helped 
by  a  clear  mind  and  the  appreciation  of  beauty. 

Dr.  White  emphasizes  walking  s  tranquilizing  effects.  "A 
brisk  long  walk  iin  the  evening."  he  says,  "may  be  more 
helpful  as  a  hypnotic  than  any  medicine  or  television  show." 

Once  walking  becomes  a  daily  habit  one  can  notice  the 
lower  back  muscles  loosening  up  and  allowing  easier  bend- 
ing movement. 

Experts  are  cautious  about  making  claims  that  daily  walk- 
ing will  increase  ones  life  span.  There  is  no  hard  proof 
that  it  will.  But  they  can  guarantee  that  brisk  walking  will 
keep  one  in  physically  fit  condition. 

After  incorporating  walking  into  habit  you  will  become 
aware  that  your  mind  is  clearer  and  your  eyes  are  brighter. 
You'll  feel  as  though  youve  added  a  new  perspective  to 
your  life.

Potiticiansavoid  issue; 
media  distorts   views 

The  campaign  trail  has  begun  for  Nixon  and  McGovern 
although  many  people  find  it  hard  to  follow  the  trail  -  it 
is  lost  under  the  political  gossip 

Professional  investigators  work  late  into  the  night  digg- 
ing up  juicy  bits  of  information  concerning  the  candidates. 
If  the  public  is  distracted  from  the  actual  issues  for  an 
instant,  success  has  been  achieved. 

Another  favorite  is  name-calling.  The  Republicans  refer 
to  the  Democratics  as  imcompetent  and  the  Democrats 
return  with  a  spirited  "ratfink!"  They  seem  to  be  playing 
a  game  of  'keep  away'  with  the  issues, 

Canddates'  opinions  concerning  the  Vietnamize  war  and 
national  economy  have  disappeared  from  the  front  pages 
as  bugging  and  campaign  funding  dominate  the  headlines. 
Admittedly  the  bugging  of  Democratic  headquarters  is 
important  for  it  enables  certain  politicians  to  listen  to  infor- 
mation they  most  probably  know  already.  Nixon's  campaign 
funds  and  where  they  came  from  is  also  significant.  After 
all,  we  want  to  keep  it  all  in  the  same  country. 

Democratic  tactics  are  more  open  and  deliberate  than 
Republican.  Thay  would  jump  at  the  chance  to  release  to 
the  press  President  Nixon  has  a  wart  on  his  nose.  Republi- 
cans achieve  their  goals  more  subtly,  almost  unoticed  but 
they  have  their  main  office  and  such  tactics  may  not  be 
as  necessary. 

According  to  both  parties,  the  issues  are  laid  out  cut 
and  dried  for  the  public  to  see.  So  they  are  but  the  point 
is,  where  d:,  the  candidates  stand  on  these  issues?  It  would 
appear  they  are  both  trying  the  ride  the  fence  and  wait 
to  discover  who  falls  first. 

Political  pressure  finds  its  way  into  the  most  unusual 
circumstances  although  in  the  case  of  the  mass  media  it 
is  not  at  all  uncommon.  The  presses  have  wandered  away 
from  straight  news  reporting  and  delight  in  presenting  infor- 
mattion  in  this  manner.  The  public  craves  this  type  of  gossip 
as  the  mass  media  overpowers  their  constructive  minds 
and  distorts  them,  a  kind  of  brainwashing. 

Political  mudslinging  is  ancient.  It  dates  back  to  the  elec- 
tions of  the  first  Presidents  and  has  steadily  increased  in 
popularity  since  that  time.  This  election  year  the  candidates 
and  their  political  parties  have  outdone  themselves  and 
have  come  close  to  perfecting  the  art.  It  is  up  to  the  public 
to  demand  the  issues  be  aired  and  to  put  down  this  unneces- 
sary gossip. 


Other"relies  on  horror 


bv  Chris  Dusendschon 

Hearing  mat  Thomas 
Tryon's  best  seller  "The 
Other  '  is  now  a  motion  pic- 
ture would  probably  bring 
the  reaction  "the  movie  is  as 
good  as  the  book."  The  film, 
however  is  interesting.  Asfar 
as  Monster/Horror  movies 
go  it  was  exceptional,  rely- 
ing on  good  gothic  horror 
rather  than  blood  dripping 
down  the  screen  as  an 
integral  part  of  the  plot.  The 
film  had  an  air  of  nostalgia 
about  it  that  was  good  for 
the  films  atmosphere  and 
would  probably  appeal  to 
the  people  who  lived  during 
the  post— depression  era. 

The  tjim  is  the  story  of  two  twins 
who  live  a  blissful  life  in  Ihe  country 
Niles  is  the  good  boy  and  Holland 
is  Ihe  bad ;  an  oversimpiilication  but 
it  gives  an  insight  inio  the  R.L, 
Stevenson  split  that  is  so  much  a 
pari  of  Ihe  film,  Holland  is  guilty  of 
many  evit  acts  throughout  the  film 
and  we  are  suspicious  of  the  youth 
as  also  being  guilty  of  several  mys- 
terious accidents  that  lead  to  many 
deaths.  The  film  is  spiced  with

ESP  in  which  he  can  read  minds, 
discover  what  its  Irke,  lo  be  dead

so  engrossed  in  playing  this  game 
that  the  thing  begins  to  posses  him 
and  when  Holland  dies  he,  in  his 
grief  and  insanity,  becomes  his 
brother.  His  aunt  humors  him  and 
makes  it  worse.  In  the  guise  of  his

Editor's  note:  This  is  a  first  in  a  series  of 
articles  to  help  the  voting  populous  of 
Elmhurst  Higti  School  to  become  familar 
with  the  candidates  on  the  local,  state  and 
national  level. 

Currently  representing  Ihe  fourlh  Dislrict  of  Indiana, 
representalive  J,  Edward  Roush  is  seeking  re-election 
on  the  Democratic  ticket. 

The  Congressman  supported  Ihe  Federal  Election 
Campaign  Act  of  1971  which  limils  spending  in  certain 
lederal  elections  and  provides  for  strici  reporting  of  Con- 
gressional campaign  spending.  He  voted  against  the 
measures  (or  (oreign  aid. 

Roush  voted  to  support  a  bill  "creating  a  Special 
Action  Ollice  for  Drug  abuse  Prevention  within  the 
executive  branch." 

The  Congressman  states,  "  we  must  protect  the 
American  citizens,  in  particular  our  young  people,  Irom 
the  massive  infusion  of  illegal  drugs.  This  legislation 
acis  as  a  warning  lo  those  nations  which  are  the  majors 
producers  ol  illegal  narcotics.  ,  ." 

On  March  eighth  Congress  voted  on  Ihe  "Omnibus 
Education  Act  prohibiting  the  use  of  federal  funds  (or 
the  purpose  of  busing'.  Congressman  Roush  voted 
against  the  act, 

Mr.  Roush  speaks  out  lor  higher  educationi 

Neither  our  society  nor  individual  students  can 
afford  not  to  expand  Ihe  boundaries  of  knowledge  if 
our  Nation  and  it's  people  are  lo  continue  to  prosper 
and  progress,  economically,  and  spiritually.  .  .'* 

He  voted  for  funds  lo  assist  Congress 
m  evaluating  technological  advances.  On  March  twenty- 
fourth,  1971,  Mr.  Roush  presented  testimony  before  the 
House  to  amend  the  Constitution  on  the  equality  ol  the 
rights  of  men  and  women  before  Ihe  law, 

Mr,  Roush  wrote  in  his  report  ol  the  first  session  o( 
the  92nd  Congress,  "I  don't  believe  that  legislation  will 
wipe  out  sex  discrimination  anymore  than  other  kinds 
of  discriminalion,  but  I  certainly  think  it  will  make  such 
practices  more  difficult,  more  costly  and,  hopefully  less 
socially  acceptable." 

Congressman  Roush  has  also  introduced  legislation 
for  a  "National  Institute  tor  Crime  Prevention  and  Con- 
trol, a  bill  lo  allow  an  income  lax  deduction  (or  prents 
with  children  in  college  and  a  bill  to  equalize  the  tax

Drug  abusers  explain  reasons 


by  Bill  Watson 

Editor's  Note:  Editorial  page  editor  Bill  Watson  Inter- 
viewed three  Elmhurst  students  about  their  experiences 
with  drugs,  recently. 

Each  Interviewee  was  asked  lo  relate  their  views  on 
drug  abuse  and  the  porblems  It  has  created  for  society. 
This  article  is  meant  only  to  give  insight  Into  possible 
reasons  why  many  students  are  using  drugs.  As  a  pre- 
caution against  Identification  of  the  students  inter- 
viewed, ficticious  names  are  used  throughout  the  inter- 
view. 

Drug  abuse  among  high  school  students, 
today  has  reached  a  pandemic  stage.  With 
every  school  affected  by  this  growing  problem, 
increasing  study  is  being  made  about  the 
aspects  of  each  drug.  Too  often  though,  the 
abuser  is  characterized  wrongly  as  being  a 
thoughtless  member  of  a  lost  mass.  Few 
people  have  yet  asked  the  actual  abuse  or  why 
he  uses  drugs  and  what  he  sees  in  their  usage. 

When  asked,  all  three  students  interviewed, 
gave  completely  different  answers  why  they 
use  drugs.       

ruiary  claimed,  "Originally,  peers  were 
experimenting  with  marijuana.  Iknew  alot 
about  'grass'  and  I  was  curious.  It  was 
definitely  not  for  a  need  to  escape  from  reality 
or  anything  along  that  line,  t  wasn't  looking 
to  rebell- 

John  explained,  "I  was  told  it  mellows  you 
out  and  lengthens  your  patience  with  things, 
so  I  tried  it." 

Joe  said,  "I  began  using  drugs  to  kinda' 
escape  problems.  Then  I  began  using  different 
types  just  for  the  experience.  Eventually  I 


wanted  only  to  alter  my  mood.  For  instance 
if  I  were  depressed  I'd  turn  on  to  speed." 

Mary  went  on  to  explain  what  she  feels  she 
got  from  experimenting  with  drugs. 

She  said.  "I  feel  I  have  a  deeper  appreciation 
of  people  and  their  feelings."  She  also  stated, 
"I  found  that  my  personality  has  widened  to 
except  different  ideas  and  that  I'm  more 
interested  in  people  and  their  problems." 

Although  she  felt  there  were  some  positive 
affects,  she  later  stated  that  she  no  longer 
wanted  to  use  'chemicals  '  (synthetic  drugs). 
Mary  explained  that  she  had  done  acid  and 
LSD  about  6  times,  mescaline  twice,  and  vari- 
ous  other  drugs  once. 

About  acid  she  said,  "Aicd  is  very  unper- 
dlctable  and  the  medical  evidence  concern- 
ing it,  brings  a  larger  and  larger  case  against 
it.  Personally,  I  think  it  will  fade  out  of  the 
drug  culture  in  the  next  two  to  three  years." 

John  claimed  to  have  used  acid  six  times. 

He  said,  about  acid  and  why  he  quit,  "You 
can  take  just  so  much  of  it.  After  about  the 
first  three  hours  of  your  trip  it  gets  old  quick,  " 

"I've  tripped  about  thirty  or  forty  times  In 
the  past  year  and  a  halt.  I  quit  recently 
because  I  began  to  feel  after  effects  from 
using  it.  My  neck  began  to  twitch  without  any 
warning.  I  really  didn't  think  it  was  worth  sac- 
riflclng  my  physical  wellbeing,"  said  Joe. 

Joe  also  agreed  that  the  visual  atrects  were 
much  the  same  after  extended  usage  of  acid. 


He  continued  to  say,  "After  about  twenty 
'trips'  I  began  flashbacking  more  often  and 
for  a  longer  period  of  time.  I  didn't  like  the 
idea  of  tripping  when  I  didn't  want  to. ' 

"I  don't  think  people  sould  begin  using  acid 
at  all.  You  can  never  be  sure  what  you're  really 
buying.  The  only  way  you  can  tell  is  to  take 
it.  That's  too  much  of  a  risk,  "  Joe  explained. 
He  went  on  to  say  that  Impurities  were 
extremely  high  in  all  synthetic  drugs  you  buy 
on  the  street. 

One  outside  influence  often  used  during 
"trips"  is  music. 

n/lary  claimed,  "Music  has  a  definite  affect 
on  how  your  trip  goes.  Sometimes  you  can 
listen  to  the  same  album  five  times  and  get 
five  different  meanings  which  may  or  may 
not  even  exist.  I  think  today  music  has  to 
do  with  the  counter  culture  and  Its  expert- 
ences." 

One  aspect  often  criticized  is  the  possible 
affect  drug  abuse  might  have  on  moral  stan- 
dards, Mary  saw  no  connection  between  drug 
abuse  and  a  moral  change. 

"I  think  that  now  my  respect  for  others  has 
increased.  I'm  willing  to  understand  people,  " 
said  John. 

Joe,  however,  said,  "now  that  I  look  back 
on  my  use  of  acid.  I  realize  that  just  using  it 
changed  me  morally.  I  lost  respect  for  my  phys- 
ical health  while  using  chemicals.  I  really  didn't 
care  about  things  too  much.  I  couldn't  concen- 
trate on  anything  so  I  just  didn't  face  prob- 
lems.' 

All  three  students  agreed  on  one  point, 
marijuana  should  be  legalized.  They  felt  that 
it  affects  over  a  long  period  of  time  is  minimal 
and  medical  evidence  shows  it  may  be  safer 
than  alcohol.

Electives  challenging 


by  Nancy  Frebel 

Title  One  is  a  lederal  program  giving  aid 
to  schools  with  a  large  number  ol  families 
under  a  cefiain  income  The  Stale  Depart- 
ment has  not  yel  approved  lunds  tor  this 
year  s  program,  therefore  many  people  pre- 
viously employed  under  the  program  have 
found  themselves  transferred  or  lobless 

Miss  Mary  LynneKinsler,  apsychomelrjst 
tor  the  Title  One  program  IS  currently  aiding 
Mr  Robert  Miller,  Assistant  Principal  'The 
appropriations  could  be  final  tomorrow  or 
I  could  be  here  all  year,    she  stated 

Miss  Kinsler  was  tirsi  acquainted  with 
psychomelry  al  Ball  State  University  while 
tilling  requirements  for  her  Master's  degree 
in  elementary  education.  I  taught  one  year 
m  first  grade  and  one  in  |unior  high  math 
and  this  is  my  third  year  working  for  federal 
programs,  "  she  explained 
Psychometrist  visits  schools 

Under  the  Title  One  program.  Miss  Kinsler 
spent  one  and  a  halt  days  at  each  assigned 
school.  Psychometrists  working  under  the 
regular  school  system  visited  a  school  only 
a  half  day  each  week.  She  tested  primarily 
at  Lindly.  McCollough  and  Study  elemen- 
tary schools 

According  to  Miss  Kinsler,  psychometry 
on  the  elementary  level  involves  testing  for 
visual  perceptual  development  and  intellig- 
ence achievement,  "I  work  alot  with 
teachers  to  determine  the  way  a  child  can 
learn  best  and  his  particular  areas  of 
strength  A  teacher  should  not  use  flash 
cards  on  a  child  if  he  can't  remember  what 
he  sees,  "  she  commented, 

Psychometry  also  enables  a  teacher  to 
belter  understand  emotional  adjustments 
and  how  a  child  relates  to  others  in  a  clas- 
sroom. Miss  Kinsler  staled,  'We  usually  test 
through  teacher  referrals  but  depending  on 


Editor's  note:  Ttiis  is  the  first  of  a  two  part 
article  explaining  the  new  English  elec- 
tives and  teacher's  views  of  the  new  sys- 
tem. Other  electives  will  be  covered  next 
week. 

English  electives  have  proved  successful 
thus  tar  according  to  English  teachers  Mr. 
Charles  Stitzel,  Mrs.  Prue  Oberlin  and  Mrs. 
Caria  Kolin,  This  is  the  trial  year  tor  the 
newly  developed  program. 

Mr.  Stilzel  is  teaching  Man  in  Conllict  and 
Utopian  Literature.  "We're  discovering 
some  ol  the  moral  questions  and  some  of 
the  social  and  political  issues.  We're  study- 
ing a  variety  of  material  -  poetry,  essays, 
plays  and  newspapers,'  explained  Stitzel 
about  his  Man  in  Conflict  class. 

The  Utopian  Literature  classes  will  be 
reading  Lost  Horizon  by  James  Hilton, 
Looking  Backward  by  Edward  Bellenly  and 
Walden  Two  by  B.F.  Skinner. 
Class  offers  creativity 

Mrs.  Oberlin  is  teaching  creative  writing, 
Shakespeare  and  composition  The  creative 
writing  course  includes  reading  journals, 
seeing  creative  dims  and  listenmg  to  crea- 
tive music  "The  class  writes  every  day," 
Mrs.  Oberlin  said  'I  never  tell  them  what 
to  write  They  just  write  what  ihev  feel  like 
writing  that  day.  ' 


The    composition    class    is    being 
introduced  lo  expository  writing.  They  are 
studying  essays  and  judging  the  style  and 
the  sentence  structure 
Myth  provides  task 

Mrs.  Kolins  classes  include  Mythology 
and  20th  Century  Poetry  'Were  using  the 
classic  text  in  Mythology, "  said  Mrs.  Kolin. 
"The  book  is  Bullinch's  Mythology  which 
includes  the  Age  of  Fable,  the  Age  of 
Chivalry  and  The  Legends  ol  Char- 
lemagne." 

"The  students  have  individual  research 
projects  and  choose  what  kind  of  mythology 
they  want  to  report  on.  They  then  report 
to  the  class,  ■  explained  Mrs, 
Kolin."Because  of  the  electives,  most  of  the 
students  have  an  interest  in  what  they've 
chosen." 

"Thegoal  of  the  class  is  to  find  the  histori- 
cal event  from  which  the  myth  evolved," 
said  Mrs.  Kolin.  "Egyptian.  Christian  and 
Greek,  You  have  a  parallel  figures  appear- 
ing m  all  of  these  myths.  For  example.  Eve 
IS  Pandora  in  the  Christian  story  " 

The  20th  Century  Poetry  class  is  reading 
translations  of  French,  Spanish,  Italian, 
Greek  and  German  poems.  "It's  a  small 
class  and  argumentation  and  debate  over 
what  the  poem  means  is  possible.' 


Mrs.  Kolin  continued  lo  explain.  "We'll 
be  studying  poets  of  different  nationalities 
of  any  other  contemporary  poets.  " 

Referring  lo  her  classes  this  year.  Mrs. 
Kolin  said,  "They  are  so  well  motivated  I 
hope  the  sophomores  will  be  able  to  have 
electives  next  year  also 


the  school  il  may  be  through  the  parents 
or  the  principal    There  is  no  cost  for  the 
testing,"  she  added. 
Children  enjoy  tests 

Miss  Kinler  explained  the  children  don  t 
mind  being  tested  'They  really  like  the 
individual  attention  and  its  usually  fun  " 

Referring  lo  her  undetermined  stay  at 
Elmhurst  she  simply  slated,  "Its  an  experi- 
ence!'

Director  reveals   cast 


Eleven  cast  members  and  the  crew 
for  Cactus  Flower,  the  1972  school  play 
have  been  announced  by  director,  Mr. 
Donald  Goss,  stage  craft. 

Based    on    confusions    and    misun- 
derstandings, the  play  will  star  junior 
Allen  Rutledge  as  Dr.  Julian  Winston 
and  senior  Barb  Young  as  his  nurse. 
Junior  reveals  part 

"Julian  is  a  dentist  and  he's  sort  of  a 
playboy-swinger-lier  He  likes  to  lie  a 
lot.  It  starts  out  that  he  has  a  girlfriend 
and  he  tells  her  that  he's  married.  He 
decides  to  marry  her  and  she  wants  to 
meet  his  wife.  Since  he  doesn't  really 
have  one  he  asks  his  nurse  Stephanie  to 
be  his  fake  wife,"  stated  Allen. 

"It's  a  big  part  and  its  a  funny  play. 
Sofar  it's  been  pretty  fun  to  do  It  takes 
a  lot  of  concentration  I  found  Since  it  is 
a  comedy  it's  pretty  eady  to  do  I 
haven't  come  across  any  real  problems 
—  it  comes  sort  of  easy."  he  com- 
mented. 

"I  play  Stephanie  who  plays  Julian's 
fake  wife.  She's  an  efficient  nurse  and 
tries  to  help  her  friend  whom  she  likes  a 
lot.  She  also  gets  into  a  big  mess  with 
Toni,"  stated  Barb. 

Junior  Ftandy  Collins  will  portray 
Igor  Sullivan  who  lives  in  the  same 


apartment  house  as  Toni  Simmons,  the 

doctor's  girlfriend,  "He's  an  athlete,  a 

writer,  a  Mr.  America  runner  up  and  a 

hero  because  he  saves  Toni's  life.  He's 

just  an  all-round  nice   guy."    Randy 

stated- 

/^ctinns  prove  difficult 

"The  actions  give  me  the  most  pro- 
blems. It's  hard  to  do  what  you  do 
naturally  when  you're  trying  to  think 
about  it.  It's  hard  to  really  think  about 
It  and  to  control  your  mannerisms.  I 
don't  have  problems  with  lines  but  the 
actions  which  are  supposed  to  be 
natural  are  hard,"  he  continued. 

"He's  a  playboy  ,  .  kind  of  a 
bachelor  who  gets  around."  stated 
senior  John  Hoylman,  who  will  play 
Harvey  Greenfield  a  friend  of  the 
dentist  "In  the  first  act  he  gets  free 
dental  work  from  Julian  and  gets  his 
girls  free  dental  work  too  since  he  and 
the  doctor  are  good  pals," 

"He  later  does  a  favor  for  Julian  by 
posing  as  the  boyfriend  of  Stephanie,  so 
Toni  can  meet  liis  fake  wife.  It's  one  of 
the  easiest  roles  and  I  would  rather 
play  Harvey  than  any  other  role,"  John 
added- 

Junior  Jaki  Joseph  will  he  Boticelli's 
Springtime,  Harvey'sgirlfriend.  "She's 


sort  of  tfie  other  girl  lype  person.  She 
always  shows  up  at  the  wrong  time  and 
is  really  a  dumb  broad  from 
Philadelphia,"  Jaki  .said 

"My  biggest  problem  is  during  the 
first  scene  where  she  appears  in  a  night 
club.  She  comes  up  behind  Harvey  and 
throws  her  arms  around  him.  Everyone 
is  sort  of  self  conscience  about  their 
actions." 

Other  roles  include  senior  Terri  Lipp 
as  Toni  Simmons,  Nancy  Bollenbacher 
as  Mrs.  Dixon  Durant  a  patient  of  the 
doctors  and  Glenn  Rediger  as  a  music 
lover  and  waiter  Junior  John  Wright 
will  play  Senor  Arturo  Sanchez  who 
courts  Stephanie  and  John  Davis  will  be 
a  costumer,

Crew  members  include  senior  Jody 
Dell  as  stage  manager  and  in  charge  of

"We  will  be  graded  by  six  judges, 
three  for  performance  aiid  three  for

Homecoming  destroys 
school's  apathetic  mood 


A  portion  of  the  apatliy  has  been  destroyed  at 
Elmhurst  as  proven  bv  tremendous  response  of  the 
student  body  to  the  Homecoming  dilema.  Because  of 
this  interest,  our  annual  event  will  be  a  success. 

Over  $100  was  collected  during  the  homeroom 
periods  last  week,  which  was  invested  in  decorations 
for  the  festivities  at  Wayne  Stadium  and  for  flowers 
and  decorations  at  school. 

Many  students  contributed  hours  to  work  on  the 
decorations  and  plan  the  activities.  Sacrificed  time 
will  hopefully  prove  worthwhile  with  a  large  crowd 
attending  the  game  and  other  Homecoming  events. 
Our  apathy  can  be  completely  destroyed  with  con- 
tinued drive  and  desire. 

Because  we  have  overcome  a  part  of  student 
disinterest,  we  have  proven  to  ourselves  we  are 
capable  of  carrying  out  traditional  events.  Though  we 
may  be  confronted  by  numerous  barriers,  our  sup- 
port will  push  our  plans  to  the  desired  finish.  We  have 
seen  that  this  past  week. 

Perhaps  we  can  remove  the  hated  label  of 
■Apathetic  Student  Body"  this  year.  We  have  eight 
months  to  work  on  this  idea  and  approximately  1.475 
people  to  help. 

Another  area  which  is  lacking  support  is  the 
clubs.  Several  have  been  slowly  diminishing  over  the 
past  couple  of  years,  and  will  soon  die  if  nothing  is 
done  to  revive  them.  Students  need  to  locate  a  faculty 
sponsor  and  present  him  or  her  with  their  plans  for  a 
particular  club.  They  will  work  through  the  ad- 
ministration to  legalize  all  club  activities. 

Although  athletic  recognition  has  been  set  on  a 
lower  key  in  the  past  years,  the  participants  deserve 
to  be  admired  tor  their  time  spent  in  the  name  of  the 
school.  Many  unknown  hours  have  been  spent 
sweating  and  bleeding  to  attain  not  only  a  team  goal, 
but  to  reach  personal  satisfaction  also.  We  cannot 
forget  our  athletes. 

Finally,  our  main  reason  for  being  in  school  is  to 
attend  classes  and  participate  in  them.  If  we  start  our 
drive  against  apathy  in  the  classroom,  our  burden 
will  be  lightened  and  possibly  easier  to  see. 

Because  we've  only  just  begun,  the  results  will 
come  later.  But  with  our  combined  efforts  we  can 
have  success  and  set  precedents  for  the  coming 
classes. 


Volunteer  army 

Forces  prov  :de  income 


J 


by  Janet  Bel) 

Attention,  able  intelligent 
young  men,  Uncle  Sam  wants  you 
to  serve  four  years  in  the  military 
in  exchange  for  four  years  of  paid 
college! 

The  United  States  is  moving 
toward  an  all  volunteer  armed 
force.  Opposition  has  grown  into 
open  disenchantment  shared  by 
millions  of  young  people  and  their 
parents.  It's  a  too  late  to  argue 
that  we  should  keep  our  present 
draft,  we  should  simply  change 
it. 

On  the  college  campuses  op- 
position to  the  draft  grew  loud  in 
19G9  and  1970  and  people  argued 
that  we  ought  to  fill  our  army 
with  volunteers  instead  of 
draftees,  Three  national  surveys 
undertaken  during  this  period  by 
the  American  Council  on 
Education  indicate  that  in  1968 
thirtv-seven  percent  of  college 
freshman  favored  an  all- 
volunteer  army-  By  1970  the 
proportion  had  risen  to  about 
sixty-five  percent. 

i_  ongress  debated  much  over 
extending  the  draft  but  President 
Nixon  put  the  administration  on 
record  in  favor  of  an  all-volunteer 
army,  even  proposing  a  series  of 
pay  increases  to  help  make  it 
possible. 

The  generation  gap  of  the 
country's  young  people  and  their 
leaders  seems  to  be  coming 
together  on  at  least  one  issue  that 
an  all-volunteer  armed  force  is 
more  agreeable  than  the  draft. 
The  remaining  question  is  ob- 
viously who  should  enlist  in  an 
all-volunteer  force. 

One  possibility  may  be  to  use  a 
method  of  supply  and  demand 
where  by  the  army  would  set 
guaranteed  wages  that  would  be 
competitive  in  the  business 
world.  Another  bait  would  allow 
the  government  to  pay  for  up  to 
four  years  of  college  in  return  for 
four  years  of  active  duty. 

A  problem  that  might  occur  is 
that  the  quality  of  the  recruits 
may  be  poor.  The  recruitment 
volunteers  could  bring  people 
that  are  likely  to  reject  the 
country's  loyal  oaths  and  creeds. 

If  volunteers  are  attracted 
primarily  on  the  basis  of  in- 
creased pay.  people  responding 
would  enlist  only  because  of  pay. 

This  would  indicate  that  they 
came  from  some  what  lower  than 
average  economic  levels. 

Apart  from  the  question  of  the 
kinds  of    young    men    it   would 


attract  a  volunteer  force  that 
includes  a  guarantee  of  four 
years  of  military  service.  This 
has  some  advantages,  those  who 
want  to  go  to  college  first  then 
enter  the  service  would  help  meet 
military  needs. 

One  threat  in  the  future  all- 
volunteer  system  is  that  the 
supply  of  manpower  would  be 
considerably  lessened  by  un- 
popular wars  like  Vietnam,  The 
lessons  of  Vietnam  have  been 
destructive  and  costly.  To  a 
degree  trust  in  the  government 
has  been  one  of  the  casualities  of 


Students   opinion 


wiien  I  eniered  EimhursI  as  a  sophomore,  I  was 
perfecily  saii^ried  wiih  everything  about  this  school.  1 
really  thought  this  place  was  wonderful.  Since  then, 
however,  I've  been  disillusioned  rather  frequently. 

Today,  llie  big  problem  around  here  is  apathy.  Well,  I 
can't  force  other  people  to  care.  1  wish  to  God  1  could, 
but  I  can't.  All  1  can  do  is  keep  caring,  myself,  about  Uie 
things  that  are  imporiant  lo  me. 

Thai's  why  I'm  writing.  Elmhurst  has  always  had  one 
of  the  best  speech  teams  in  the  stale.  But  how  many  of 
you  know  thai  in  1970  and  '71  we  won  the  sectionaH 
That  last  year  we  look  second,  missing  first  by  one  very 
close  point? 

There  is  a  tableful  of  trophies  our  team  has  won  -, 
mote  than  any  other  team  at  this  school.  And  do  you 
know  where  those  trophies  ate?  They're  locked  in  a  closet 
in  ihe  back  of  room  217!  We  can't  even  display  them  in 
the  room  t>ecause  last  year  a  plaque  and  a  trophy  were 
stolen  from  us. 

I've  been  to  high  schools  all  over  this  state.  I've  seen 
schools  where  the  entire  main  hallway  was  devoted  to 
speech  trophy  cases,  and  schools,  some  of  them  in  ibis 
city,  whose  speech  teams  get  budgets  of  thousands  of 
dollars  a  year.  Well  I'm  not  asking  any  of  that.  I'm  just 
asking  what  every  other  speech  team  in  this  slate  has  -  a 
trophy  case.  Not  some  big  elaborate,  expensive  thing  set 
in  the  wall  -  maybe  just  a  cabinet-type  case  in  the 
cafeteria  or  hallway. 

But  please,  give  us  the  opportunity  everyone  else  has  - 
to  display  our  success  instead  of  locking  it  up  in  a  closet. 
When  we  get  up  at  S;00  am  on  Saturdays  and  drive  all 
over  the  state,  we're  doing  it  for  Elmhurst  loo.  We'd  like 
to  '^eel  that  Elmhurst  appreciates  the  effort. 

To  the  Editor: 

I  am  an  employee  of  Revco  Drug's  Store  and  a  student 
of  Elmhuisl.  On  Sept.  15.  hundreds  of  students  were

the  war  and  will  undoubtedly 
take  a  long  time  to  rebuild. 

An  all-volunteer  army  could  be 
a  tool  in  the  rebuilding  of  trust 
especially  among  young  people. 

The  first  step  must  be  a 
national  commitment  to  pay  a 
price  for  military  power.  The 
next  step  should  be  an  effort  to 
examine  (he  role  of  the  army  in  a 
free  society. 

Then  we  could  begin  to 
establish  what  will  meet  our 
military  needs  and  serve  other 
nations  as  well  within  a  voluntary 
situation. 


:^  #  ^  Bloom 


1  am  going  to  give  you  reasons  why  I  disagree  with 
you. 

1  wDl  tell  you  the  life  of  vitamin  E  and  what  it  does. 

The  power  of  vitamin  E  is  to  treat  and  prevent  heart 
disease  of  all  types  -  whether  coronary  or  rheumatic,  it 
depends  upon  four  chief  characlerislics. 

1.  Vitamin  E  seems  lo  be  a  natural  antithtomb  in  (he 
human  blood  stream.  It  has  been  found  by  Ziertcr  of 
John  Hopkins  and  the  U.  S.  Navy  Research  Department 
and  Kay  at  Tulane  (o  be  a  substance  normally  circulating 
in  the  blook  of  all  men  which  prevents  clotting  of  the 
blood.  It  does  not  interfere  with  the  normal  clotting  of 
blood  in  a  wound  and  with  the  normal  healing  process. 
Indeed,  it  actually  accelerates  (he  healing  of  bums  and 
wounds. 

2.  The  second  important  effect  of  the  use  of  (he 
vitamin  E  is  oxygen  conservation.  It  is  a  natural 
antioxidant  in  the  body.  It  has  been  shown  by  Houchin 
and  Mattill  and  this  has  been  confinned  by  many  workers 
to  decrease  the  oxygen  requirement  of  muscle  by  as  much 
as  43  per  cent.  It  makes  the  narrow  stream  of  blood 
which  gels  through  the  narrowed  coronary  artery  in  many 
heart  patients  adequate  to  prevent  the  occurring  of  anoxia 
(tack  of  oxygen),  which  is  the  (rigger  that  sets  off  anginal 
or  heart  pain. 

3.  The  third  major  function  of  vitamin  E  Is  (he 
prevention  of  excessive  scar  tissue  production  and  even  in 
some  instances,  the  ability  to  melt  away  unwante_d  scar.  It 
has  been  made  known  by  given  proof  of  its  function  this 
way  in  many  areas  of  Ihe  body. 

4.  It  is  a  dilator  of  blood  vessels.  This  was  beautifully 
demonstrated  by  X-ray  in  rabbits  injected  before  and  af(er 
the  administration  of  vitamin  E.  It  opens  up  new 
pathways  in  the  damaged  circulation,  and  bypasses  blocks 
produced  by  clots  and  hardened  arteries. 

In  the  article  you  wrote,  you  stated  they  are  harmful.  I 
could  go  on  writing  the  different  vitamins  known  in  Ihe 
world,  but  1  just  wanted  to  give  you  some  idea  of  why  I 
disagree.  You  didn't  state  any  proof  and  you  should  have

Grid  team  challenges 
Luers  in  homecoming 


Hit  it! 


Elmhurst  will  try  to  regain  momentum 
after  their  42-6  loss  to  South  Bend  Saint 
Joseph  when  they  meet  the  Bishop  Luers 
Knights  tomorrow  night  in  Uie  annual 
homecoming  game  at  Wayne  Stadium. 

l^st  Saturday  night  in  South  Bend  the 
Saint  Joe  Indians  capitalized  on  many 
Trojan  errors  to  completely  over  power 
the  Elmhurst  team.  The  Indian's  all-state 
quarterback  Mike  McCray  directed  Saint 
Joe  to  three  touchdowns  in  the  first  seven 
minutes,  uith  the  drives  starting  where 
Elmhurst  fumbles  were  recovered.  Senior 
fullback  Paul  Watters  was  our  leading 
ground  gainer  and  scored  Elmhurst's  only 
touchdown  on  a  one-yard  plunge. 

The  Trojans  know  they  must  make  a 
better  account  of  themselves  when  they 
play  their  first  game  in  southern  division 
competition  against  Luers,  Luers  comes 
into  tomorrow  nights  game  with  a  3-0 
record  having  defeated  Homestead  35-7, 
South  Side  29-13  and  Concordia  19-0, 
Although  the  Knights  are  presently  ranked 
15th  in  the  state,  they  failed  to  show  much 
strength  in  the  first  quarter  of  these  three' 
games. 

Spearheading  the  Kni^t's  offensive 
attack  is  the  running  of  senior  fullback  Bob 
Patnoude  and  junior  halfback  Max 
Richardson.  Luers  employs  the  wishbone- 
T  formation  in  the  offensive  backfield  with 
junior  Mike  Mungovan  starting  at  the 
quarterback  position.  Characteristically 
the  Knights  pass  only  a  few  times  a  game 
and  like  to  grind  out  yardage  by  running 
which  is  made  easy  by  their  tremendous 
line. 

Luers  uses  an  Oklahoma  or  5-4-2  for- 
mation on  defense  led  by  junior  all-city 
defensivehalfback  Tim  Sheets,  "We  like  to 
think  we  have  quite  a  few  men  who  can" 
defense  well."  stL'.ed  Luers  coach  Jack 
Lehr, 

In  last  year's  game  the  Trojans  were 
beaten  22-0  mainly  on  the  running  of  city 


scoring  champion  Jim  Kelleher  wno 
scored  20  points.  Luers  coach  Jack  Lehr 
has  20  returning  lettermen,  seven  of  them 
were  starters  on  last  year's  team. 

"Tbe  importance  of  this  game  is  that  the 
winner  should  be  in  a  good  position  to 
represent  the  southern  division  in  the  city 
title  game,"  commented  Mr.  Lehr. 

Cross  country  falls 
to 

By  Tom  Boyer 

Elmhurst's  cross  country  team  was 
defeated  in  its  meet  with  Huntington  by  a 
score  of  23-35  last  Tuesday  at  Swinney 
Park.  Senior  Chris  Johnson  won  the  race 
in  12:17.  Chris'  time  was  twelve  seconds 
off  the  course  record  of  13:05. 

Sophomore  Paul  Stevens  was  fourth  in  a 
time  of  13:29.  Seniors  Tom  Boyer  and  Zack 
Carter  were  ninth  and  eleventh  respec- 
tively, Terry  Emmons,  a  sophomore 
finished  tenth. 

The  team  lost  18  to  46  to  DeKaib  Thurs- 
day at  DeKaib  High  School.  Marchall 
Grate  of  DeKaib  won  in  a  time  of  twelve 
minutes  and  thirty-seven  seconds, 

Chris  Johnson  was  third,  Paul  Stevens 
tenth,  Tom  Boyer  thirteenth,  Zach  Carter 
fifteenth,  and  Terry  Emmons  finished 
sixteenth  for  the  Trojans.  DeKalb's  run- 
ners had  the  fourth  through  ninth  places  in 
the  meet. 

Next  meet  for  the  cross  country  team  is 
Thursday  October  fifth  at  Shoaff  Park.  It  is 
a  city  meet  against  Concordia,  North  Side, 
Bishop  Luers,  Bishop  Dwenger  and 
Wayne.  The  race  will  start  at  4:30. 


Senior  Jeff  Hibier  goes  up  in  the  air  to  slam  the  ball  in 
the  tennis  match  against  Bishop  Dwenger  last 
Tuesday.  Jeff  won  his  singles  match  as  did  Skye 
Heiney  and  Bernie  Kampschmidt.  The  Trojans  won 
the  tennis  match  4-3.

Debate  team 
participates 
at  Purdue 

Competing  against  high 
schools  from  all  over  northern 
Indiana,  members  of  the  debate 
team  attended  a  "Student 
Congress"  sponsored  by  the 
speech  department  of  Purdue 
University  at  the  Regional 
Campus  Saturday,  September 
23. 

According  to  Mr.  Robert  Storey, 
debate  team  coacti,  the  mock  Congress 
consisted  of  three  divisions,  the  Senate, 
House  A  and  House  E,  Seniors  Susan 
Fritzsche  and  LuJean  Fritz  were 
members  of  the  Senate  while  seniors 
Betty  Hart  and  Kathy  Free  par- 
ticipated in  House  A.  Junior  Stephanie 
Werking  and  senior  Ann  Fox  were 
grouped  in  House  B. 

In  their  respective  divisions,  the  girls 
introduced  isills  and  spoke  for  or 
against  bills  that  were  produced.  "One 
bill,  relating  to  the  Supreme  Court, 
allowed  Congress  to  override  court 
decisions.  Another  granted  anmesty  to 
draft  dodgers,"  Mr.  Storey  explained. 
Senior  supports  primary 

LuJean  spoke  five  times  during  her 
Senate  session.  She  supported  a 
national  primary  election  for  the 
President,  limited  power  of  the 
Supreme  Court  and  spoke  against 
amnesty  and  the  proposed  value-added 
tax.  "Each  person  could  receive  three 
points  for  every  time  they  spoke 
although  you  could  only  speak  five 
times.  The  total  possible  points  at  the 
end  of  the  day  was  fifteen."  she  stated. 

"The  two  Houses  were  mainly  for 
beginners  and  people  who  had  never 
been  to  a  Congress  before,  Susan  and  I 
were  in  the  Senate  which  was  advanced 
and  for  those  who  had  attended 
Congresses  previously,"  LuJean  ad- 
ded. 

Demonstration  debates  were 
presented  by  members  of  the  Purdue 
speech  department.  This  enabled 
students  to  watch  arguments  sup- 
porting various  views.  Attending  these 
debates  were  sophomore  Patty  Gay  and 
senior  Hans  Zorn. 

Speaker  places  First 

Certificates  were  awarded  to  the  top 
ten  in  each  group  and  ribbons  to  the  top 
five  contestants.  Receiving  both  rib- 
bons and  certificates,  Lu  Jean  placed 
first  in  the  Senate  while  Susan  placed 
third.  Betty  and  Ann  were  awarded 
with  certific  .  ■^s. 

The  ten-member  team  will  travel  to 
Chesterton,  Indiana  for  the  Chesterton 
Debate  Tournament,  Saturday.  Oc- 
tober H;  North  Side  High  School,  Oc- 
tober 21;  and  Columbia  City,  October

every  weekend.  Nearly  all  the  tour- 
naments involve  schools  from  all  over 
Indiana."  he  emphasized. 

"we  have  an  active  program.  If 
students  are  interested  and  would  like 
to  travel  all  over  the  state  I  would  be 
happy  to  talk  to  them  so  they  may  join 
our  team,"  concluded  Mr.  Storey,

Counselor  seeks  position 


"It's  really  ironic,  Three  students 
I've  taught  have  all  run  against 
me  ,  ,Bachs,  Pence  and  Borne,  They 
were  Democrats  and  here  I'm  a 
Republican!  Fortunately,  the  old  boy 
beat  them,  so  I  must  have  done 
something  right."  said  Mr.  John  Sinks, 
guidance  counselor  who  is  currently  up 
for  reelection  in  the  state  legislature. 

"I  used  to  teach  Government  and 
Sociology  here  at  Elmhurst,  One  day  1 
woke  up  and  thought  —  'What  am  I 
doing?  I'm  being  a  hypocrite.'  t  had 
been  preaching  on  getting  involved  in 
the  government  but  I  wasn't  doing 
much  myself.  I  wanted  my  students  to 
be  active  in  the  government,  so  I 
decided  to  run  for  the  state 
legislature,"  Mr,  Sinks  said. 

The  Elmhurst  guidance  counselor 
has  served  in  the  state  legislature  for 
eight  years  and  for  four  terms  since 
1965,  The  legislature  meets  for  30  days 
in  the  even  number  years  and  for  61 
days  in  the  odd  number  years. 


but  it  didn't  say  a  state  couldn't  site 
various  crimes  for  the  penalty.  The 
Indiana  law,  if  passed,  would  make  the 
death  penalty  legal  for  murder  of  a  law 
officer  or  guard  and  rape.  Also  if  a 
murder  is  pre-meditated," 
Sinks  supports  penalty 

"I'm  going  to  support  it,"  Sinks  said, 
"I'm  getting  tired  of  the  coddling  of  the 
criminal.  We  never  hear  about  the  poor 
victim  or  the  victim's  family.  Without 
the  death  penalty  the  prisoners  have 
nothing  to  lose." 

"There  may  be  some  bills  introduced 
for  and  against  the  legalization  of 
marijuana.  This  issue  is  up  to  the  state. 


not  the  national  government  to  rule  on 
legalization.  If  marijuana  is  legalized. 
a  person  would  be  able  to  pick  up  a  pack 
of  marijuana  cigarettes  at  a  drug  store. 
Cost  would  also  be  regulated  by  the 
government  instead  of  the  un- 
derground." 

Mr,  Sinks  continued,  "The  way  I  look 
at  it,  we  don't  give  ice  cream  cones  to 
diabetics  and  it's  not  wise  to  give 
alcohol  to  alcoholics,  so  why  give 
marijuana  to  induce  a  drug  addict?" 

"You  can  talk  to  any  drug  addict  and 
he'll  tell  you  he  smoked  marijuana  at 
some  time,"  he  said,  "It's  true  the 
alcohol  culture  is  bad,  but  why  com- 
pound it  with  another  thing?" 


Issues  include  wo 


len's  rights 


"It's  considered  a  citizen  legislature 
and  the  Fort  Wayne  Community 
Schools  will  give  me  a  leave  of  absence 
if  I'm  reelected.  If  I  am  reelected,  any 
high  school  student  who  would  like  to 
serve  as  a  page  for  one  day,  should 
contact  me.  It  would  be  counted  as  an 
excused  absence,"  Mr.  Sinks  ex- 
plained. 

Among  the  issues  facing  this  year's 
state  legislature  are  the  27th  Amend- 
ment granting  women  equal  rights, 
"This  bill  would  give  women  exactly 
the  same  rights  as  any  man.  They 
would  be  subject  to  the  draft  and  if  a 
woman  made  more  money  than  her 
husband,  she  may  have  to  pay  him 
alimony," 

"This  would  also  give  women  the 
same  pay  as  a  man  for  an  equal  job," 
Mr.  Sinks  continued,  "If  I  am  reelected, 
I'll  vote  for  this.  Some  women  are  tired 
to  being  in  the  shadow  of  her  husband  or 
a  man.  The  whole  thing  really  depends 
on  your  philosophy." 

State  considers  abortion 

Abortion  is  another  issue.  Indiana 
laws  now  state  if  a  mother's  life  is  in 
jeopardy  an  abortion  is  legal,  "Those 
who  want  it  liberalized  simply  want  a 
clinic  in  Indiana  instead  of  traveling  to 
New  York,  Personally,  I  feel  life  is 
sacred  and  I  don't  think  we  have  a  right 
to  take  a  life.  The  New  York  laws  are 
too  loose  and  I  hate  to  see  Indiana 
becoming  an  abortion  capitol,"  stated 
Mr,  Sinks. 

Also  on  the  agenda  of  the  legislature 
is  the  death  penalty,  "The  current 
Supreme  Court  ruling  says  how  the 
death  penalty  should  be  administered 


Announcing  .  .  . 


Senior  Cindy  Hunt  was  crowned  Homecoming  queen  last  Saturday 
evening  during  tialftime  festivities.  Last  year's  queen  Gwen  Ramson, 
now  a  student  at  Indiana  Statey  presented  Cindy  with  a  dozen  roses. 
Others  on  the  court  include  senior  Gwen  Burns,  junior  Sandy  Shrock 
and  sophomore  Penny  Ress.  Plans  and  decorations  were  coordinated 
by  Elmhurst  students. 


Agnew  visits  city 


by  Jayne  Langmeyer 

Effects  of  the  November  presidential  election 
have  hit  Fort  Wayne  this  week  with  a  visit  from 
Vice-President  Spiro  Agnew.  The  Nixon  represen- 
tative traveled  to  the  Summit  City  Tuesday  in 
support  of  the  Republican  ticket,  particularly  for 
Allan  Bloom,  candidate  for  Fourth  District  Con- 
gress and  Dr.  Otis  Bowen,  candidate  for  governor. 
After  his  arrival  directly  from  Washington  to 
Baer  Field,  Agnew  appeared  before  a  very  diverse 
crovi/d  on  the  south  side  of  the  City-County 
Building.  Among  several  area  and  local  bands 
setting  the  mood  for  a  campaign  speech  v*/ere 
McGovern  supporters,  youth,  staunch  Nixonites. 
hecklers  and  just  curious  spectators. 

Aimed  basically  to  Indiana  voters,  Agnew's 
presentation  included  many  compliments  to  the 
Hoosier  state.  "You've  got  quite  a  lot  going  for 
you  in  Indiana,"  Agnew  said.  He  sited  examples  in 
which  this  state  has  played  a  role  in  past  history. 
Several  comments  were  of  Nixon's  opponent 
George  McGovern.  He  said,  "Imitation  for  a 
President  is     not  a  good  situation.  McGovern  has 


been     Imitating     a     presidential     candidate     for 

months." 

He  stated  J,   Edward 

Roush's    move    the    Strategic    Arms    Limitation 

agreement.    Bloom's   opponent   did   not  want  to 

grant  the  right  to  the  President  to  install  aniiballis- 

tic    missile    defense   system.   He   said   this  could 

possibly   have   destroyed   the   two  world  powers 

chance  to  have  a  closer  relationship. 

In  response  to  an  anti-war  heckler,  Agnew  said 
the  Johnson  administration  stopped  the  bombing, 
thinking  the  North  Vietnamese  would  consider 
negotiations.  However,  an  "all  out  war  was 
launched  by  the  North  Vietnamese,  If  the  North 
wants  peace,  let  them  pull  out  their  troops  and  go 
to  the  negotiating  table,"  he  said. 

Agnew  also  said  power  is  being  given  back  to 
the  people  instead  of  to  the  federal  government. 
"There  has  been  a  channelling  of  power  to 
non-elected  individuals,"  he  said. 

With  a  boost  of  encouragement  for  Mr.  Nixon, 
the  smiling  sun-tanned  vice-president  said, 
"There's  no  doubt  in  my  mind  who  people  are 
going  to  vote  for  in  America." 


Smoke  cremates  issue 


Entertoiners  support 
political  candidates 

Political  candidates  have  found  beneficial  supporters 
in  the  Hollywood  area.  II  seems  some  well  known  en- 
tertainers are  actively  working  for  both  the  Republican 
and  the  Democratic  cause. 

Many  people  are  sincere  when  ttiey  publicize  their 
backing  for  a  particular  candidate.  They  may  sacrifice 
many  hours  of  work  to  increase  McGovern's  or  Nixon's 
popularity. 

However,  the  situation  appears  to  be  a  system  that 
offers  a  step  ahead  for  both  the  candidates  and  the 
entertainers.  Free  publicity  for  both  while  electing  the 
President  of  the  United  States.  Another  addition  to  the 
game  of  politics  has  beenmade. 

Though  it  is  sometimes  difficult  to  see,  electron 
procedures  are  developed  to  create  the  best  possible 
image  of  the  candidate.  Voters  are  presented  with  an 
all-knowing  man  who  is  an  infallible  and  perfect  man  for 
the  country.  Citizens  must  see  through  the  techniques  of 
"image  formation"  and  concentrate  on  issues  and 
problems  the  country  is  facing  and  will  perhaps  face 
within  the  following  four  years. 

Because  most  Americans  want  to  believe  politics  is 
for  the  good  of  the  country  and  its  people,  it  is  not 
feasible  to  think  parts  of  the  government  is  existing  for 
its  berfef  its  only.  True,  the  basic  idea  of.  our  Constitution 
is  for  our  protection,  but  we  cannot  overlook  the 
problems  that  are  present. 

Electionsarea  perfectexample  of  a  "voter  snowjob." 
A  beautiful  wife,  friendly  clean  kids  and  a  weekly  at- 
tendance to  the  church  of  his  choice  somehow  completes 
the  picture  of  the  man  who  is  best  possibly  suited  as  our 
leader. 

We  have  a  duty  to  realize  that  these  men  are  human 
also,  and  susceptible  to  mistake  and  error.  Presidential 
candidates  are  competing  for  a  most  difficult  position, 
and  should  be  evaluated  as  a  responsible  leader,  not  a 
good  friend  of  a  particular  celebrity. 

Hollywood  parties  are  hardly  the  answer  to  an  elec- 
tion and  should  not  be  considered  in  the  voting  booth. 
Americans  can  see  through  the  psychology  and  elect  as 
an  informed  mass,  an  aware  people  who  are  concerned 
for  the  future  of  their  country. 

Soundingboard  solves 
questions,  problems 

With  the  school  year  well  under  way,  the  question  of  a 
student  government  has  yet  to  be  brought  up. 

Last  years  student  council  voted  nearly  unanimously 
to  abolish  all  its  further  functionings  because  of  disin- 
terest. After  much  debate,  the  general  consensus  of 
opinion  was  that  the  council  was  also  useless  since  its 
only  power  was  to  make  suggestions  to  the  ad- 
ministration. Perhaps  more  important  than  this 
problem  though  was  that  it  could  have  acted  as  a  sound- 
ing board  for  student  opinion. 

This  concept  of  a  communications  line  is  still  a 
necessity  between  the  administration  and  students  at 
Elmhurst.  In  past  years  the  school  instituted  the 
Student-Faculty  Relations  Board.  With  members  from 
both  the  student  body  and  the  faculty,  it  became  a  forum 
for  expressing  opinions.  Its  existence  was  also  cut  short 
by  apathetic  attitudes. 

With  renovation  of  its  structure,  the  student  Faculty 
Relations  Board  should  again  become  an  important 
factor   in    Elmhurst's   functioning.    Elected    represen-

illegal  for  minors  to  smoke

The  restrooms  at  Elmhurst  are

smoke  between  classes,  (or  thi.^

hover  m  the  stalls  exhaling  into 
the  air  vents  as  smoke  billows 
over  the  top  and  hoping  office 
personnel  are  far  away  The  only 
thing  this  accomplishes  is  a 
certain  status  with  other 
students 

Although  smoking  is  not  per- 
mitted in  public  buildings,  and 
Elmhurst  is  a  public  building, 
teachers  also  cloud  their  lounges 
with  smoke.  Somewhere  in  the 
clause  concerning  smoking  in 
public  buildings  it  states  smoking 
is  permitted  in  buildings  with 
special  areas  equipped  with 
proper  receptacles. 

This  does  not  imply  smoking  is 
fine  for  all  those  over  18  years  as 
the  surgeon  general  has  stated 
smoking  is  hazardous  to  the 
health  —  everyone's  health. 
Teachers  are  setting  bad 
examples  for  students  when  they 
return  to  the  classroom  smelling 
of  smoke. 

A  possible  solution  to  the 
problem  may  be  a  smoking 
lounge  for  students.  This  would 
meet  the  requirements  con- 
cerning proper  receptacles  and  a 
designated  room  for  smoking.  A 
smoking  lounge  at  Elmhurst 
would  mean  the  students  would 
have  a  place  to  relax  although  it 
would  also  mean  the  ad- 
ministration condones  smoking 
for  students. 

Right  now  smoking  in  schools  is 
a  national  problem  Smoking 
lounges  may  be  the  answer 
somewhere  in  the  future  but  the 
tight  reigns  the  administration 
holds  on  schools  must  be  first 
loosened 


Candidate:  Otis  Bowen 


Editor's  note:  This  is  the  third  in  a  series  of 
campaign  stories  cowering  the  wiewws  and  actions  of 
various  candidates  on  the  local,  state  and  national 
level. 

Dr.  Otis  Bowen.  Repubhcan  nominee  for 
Governor  of  Indiana,  spoke  at  a  Concordia  Senior 
College  luncheon  Sept.  27. 

Or  Bowen  began  his  speech  by  tracing  man's  steps 
throughout  history  to  find  a  scape-goat  tor  his  pollution 
problems.  He  said  man  has  finally  learned  to  face  up  to 
his  ov*n  problem  and  that  now  is  the  time  to  act.  for  'we 
are  on  the  verge  of  an  enuironmenial  breakdown  " 

Dr.  Bowen  attacked  the  Army  Corps  of  Engineers  and 
its  C-SEM  project  as  being  a  "problem  in  substitute  for 
another  problem."  He  stated  thai  the  Army  Corps  proiect 
was  loo  costly  and  their  attacks  on  pollution  might  lay 
vifflsie  lo  good  land  in  efforts  to  clean  up  that  which  is 
already  polluted. 

Dr.  Bowen  said  pollution  control  must  be  a  "slate. 
local  and  federal  effon  for  clean  air  and  water."  He  stated 
that  if  elected  he  would  see  ihai  Indiana  shouldered  this 
problem. 

Bowen  then  discussed  the  problems  of  education 
feeling  public  education  must  be  primarily  funded  at  the 
state  level.  He  wants  to  reverse  the  one-ihird  state. 
two-thirds  property  tax  support  of  the  schools  and  push  a 
stronger  ia;<  relief. 

Bowen  explained  property  was  no  longer  a  measure  of 
a  man's  wealth  and  schools  could  not  function  properly 
under   the   taxes  collected  from  ihe  two-thirds  property 

Educafional  reform 


(a».  He  stated  the  number  one  problem  is  to  reconstruct 
the  tan  program  to  relieve  property  ta«  He  went  on  to 
say  there  must  be  'rigid  control  of  the  use  of  property 
tax.  To  make  up  tor  this  rax  loss,  we  must  remove  money 
from  a  broader  based  tax  structure." 

He  continued  that  state  aid  money  could  be  obtained 
from  three  major  levels  Money  should  be  taken  from 
sales,  income  and  corporate  taxes  on  a  "equitable 
proportional  level    " 

Dr  Bowen  related  that  "this  is  the  only  way  society 
can  be  assured  that  coeds  will  be  safe  on  the  campus,  that 
children  will  be  safe  on  the  streets  and  that  all  will  be 
secure  in  their  homes  " 

At  the  conclusion  fo  his  speech,  he  left  Ihe  floor  open 
to  questions  In  his  answers,  Dr  Bowen  stated  he  was  for 
youth  and  he  had  supported  the  18-vear-old  vote  bill.  He 
emphasized  that  he  wanted  lo  see  youlh  "lake  a  full  and 
complete  participation  m  society  We  must  capitalize  on 
the  talents  of  society  " 

Or.  Bowen  was  asked  by  one  out-of-state  student 
about  Ihe  poor  conditions  of  Indiana  roads  and  his  plans 
to  improve  them  Bowen  related  that  Ihe  interstate  traffic 
required  the  state  to  build  more  roads  per  mile  than  any 
other  state.  He  also  said  that  on  the  average  it  took  one 
million  dollars  to  build  one  mile  of  roadway.  He 
concluded  that  many  roads  were  already  being  laid  and 
plans  tor  more  were  in  progress 

Dr  Bowen  was  then  questioned  upon  the  drinking  law 
and  the  Maionty  Bill  giving  18-year-olds  the  rights  of 
adulthood.  Bowen  said  he  supported  the  bill  and  he  felt 
18-year-olds  could  accept  Ihe  responsibilities  of  adult- 
hood at  that  age. 


School  requires  change 


Schooling  for  many  students, 
has    become    a    word    with    a 


tatives  trom  each  class  could  meet  on  a  regular  basis    separate  meaning  from  learning. 

with    faculty    representatives    to    discuss    educational 

problenns  faced  dail"  by  students.  Although  it  is  more 

probable  that   no   Decision    making    power    would    be 

handled  by  the  board,  at  least  students  could  air  their 

feelings  directly  to  the  administration. 


Students  have  come  to  think 
of  school  as  a  place  to  receive  a 
grSde  rather  than  education.  Un- 
fortunately, this  thinking,  ir 
n^osl  mstances,  is  right.

Like  our  government,  school 
systems  have  become  massive 
bureaucracies,  wifh  standard 
teaching  procedures.  In  order  for 
all  students  to  absorb  this  stand- 
ardized knowledge,  they  are 
trained  to  regiment  all  thought 
and  behavior. 

To  change  these  rather  insen- 
sitive measures,  experts  claim 
thai  S80  billion  a  year  more 
must  be  spent  to  buy  more 
schools  and  facilities.  This  would 
help  to  relieve  the  over-crowded 
classes  for  awhile,  but  what 
about  the  constantly  increasing 
number  of  students?  Eventually 
more  schools  and  facilities 
would  have  to  be  built  to  meet 
the  demand. 


A  more  reasonable  method 
would  be  to  use  schools  al- 
ready available  more  affectively. 

The  present  curriculum  in 
most  high  schools  offer  a  "well 
rounded  situation"  when  it 
should  be  helping  the  student 
decide  on  his  future  vocation. 
Since  many  courses  only  repeat 
basic  knowledge  already 
attained,  these  could  be  replaced 
with  more  useful  classes.  Many 
school  systems  are  now  offering 
basic  philosophy  and  psychology 
along  with  other  elective  courses 
that  directly  involve  possible 
future  professions.  This  could 
act  as  a  guide  to  many  students 
and  at  the  same  time  prepare 
them  for  college.

Si¥itchboard 

presents 

program 


By  Tammy  Schecter 

Elmhurst  Y-Teens  and  three 

Switchboard  representatives 
gathered  for  a  rap  session  during 
the  club's  first  meeting,  which 
was  held  September  28.  Switch- 
board is  an  emergency  telephone 
number  where  people  can  call 
any  time  for  any  type  of  trouble. 
Gus  Verstyren,  di  rector  of 
Switchboard,  started  by  saying, 
"Switchboard  is  like  a  social 
service  agency.  Our  target  is  the 
free  community,  the  longhaired 
type  of  communal  person." 

Located  in  the  basement  of  St. 
Mary's  Church,  downtown, 
Switchboard  services  are  open  24 
hours  a  day.  The  agency  hopes  to 
open  a  walk-in  center  in  a  few 
months,  but  currently,  they  are 
concentrating  mainly  in  giving 
aid  by  telephone. 

Legal  hassles,  drugs,  alcohol, 
family  problems,  sex  problems, 
school,  racial,  job,  and  suicidal 
troubles  are  a  few  of  the 
situations  faced  by  the  operators 
at  Switchboard.  The  operators 
rap  with  the  person  calling  and  if 
needed  they  are  prepared  to  refer 
the  person  to  a  professional. 
Volunteers  participate  in  course 

Swithboard  has  40  volunteers 
ranging  in  age  from  16  to  35  with 
seven  paid  staff  members.  Each 
operator  must  be  trained  by 
Switchboard's  Six  day  training 
course,  so  as  to  know  the  basics  of 
what  to  do  in  anv  situation  that 
might  arise. 

Calls  are  received  from  people 
ranging  from  ages  8  to  70 
Switchboard  recently  housed  a 
70-year-old  woman  for  five 
weeks.  She  was  a  victim  of  the 
flood  disasters  in  Pennsylvania; 
her  house  and  belongings  being 
washed  away  with  the  waters. 
She  is  now  in  a  convalescent 
home,  thanks  to  the  efforts  of 
Switchboard  volunteers. 


Switchboard  receives  no 
substantial  type  of  funding. 
Public  dances  and  appeals  are 
their  main  source  of  money, 
along  with  individual  donations. 
Individuals  object  to  Switchboard 

There  are  many  individuals  in 
Fort  Wayne  who  raise  objections 
to  Switchboard.  Gus  feels  that  the 
problem  lies  in  the  face  that, 
■'The  people  who  complain  about 
the  service  don't  want  to 
recognize  the  problems  this 
community  has.  Therefore,  they 
can't  even  fathom  the  need  of  our 
service." 

Switchboard  receives  3,000 
calls  a  month,  700  of  them  from 
callers  who  want  to  rap.  Switch- 
board is  your  service.  If  you  need 
help  or  just  need  someone  to  talk 
to,  call  Switchboard  at  742-7333. 


Tempered  by  eight  years  of 
development  the  spirit  of  camp 
Red  Cedar  today  is  strengthened 
by  support  from  the  Izaak  Walton 
League  of  America,  the 
Cooperative  Extension  Service  of 
Purdue  University  and  the 
United  States  Department  of 
Agriculture,  various  counties  and 
youth  organization,  the  Army 
Reserve,  and  by  the  participation 
of  young  people  from  junior  high 
through  college. 

The  director  of  the  camp  is 
Max  F.  Parrot  who  has  un- 
dertaken many  expeditions 
dealing  with  environmental 
conservation  is  26  years  old 
has  and  will  continue  to  do  more 
for  the  Fort  Wayne  area 
ecological  problems  than  has 
been  done  for  years. 

Max  did  a  study  of  the  great 
lakes  and  their  pollution  levels 
last  summer  in  the  form  of  a 
canoe  trip  from  August  10  to 
August  17.  The  use  of  the  lakes  for 
domestic  and  industrial  water 
supply  and  for  recreational 
purposes  was  affected  in  some 
areas. 

The  discharge  of  sewage, 
either  untreated  of  inadequately 
treated,  into  tributary  streams  as 
well  as  directly  into  the  lakes  was 
a  principal  cause  of  pollution  in 
the  more  densely  populated  parts 
of  the  region. 

"Tampering  with  mother 
nature  is  something  we  know 
little  about,"  said  Max.  "We  deal 
in  the  four  seasons  out  here,  with 
each  season  thought  of  as  a  year. 
Our  operations  are  built  around 
working  backwards  with  mother 
nature  where  as  you  work  for- 
ward. 

"Sixteen  variations  of  multiple 
use  programs  are  in  operation 
out  here.  These  programs

another,    they    show    in-

Aremosf  heolfh  foods 
extremely  beneficial? 

Organically  grown  foods  or  the  much  acclaimed 
"health  foods"  are  actually  the  foods  your  great 
grandparents  ate.  They  are  grown  without  the  help  of 
synthetic  fertilizers  or  pesticides  and  processed 
without  thickeners  or  preservatives  of  any  kind. 

Nearly  2,000  "health  food"  stores  now  sell  such 
items  as  soybean  flour,  brown  rice,  millet,  buckwheat 
and  lentils.  Many  supermarkets  have  special 
"organic"  departments. 

Organic  farming  avoids  pesticides,  herbicides  and 
hormones,  and  relies  on  the  use  of  animal  manures 
which  preserves  the  vitality  of  the  soil  and  fills  plants 
with  natural  vitamins  and  minerals  not  found  in  foods 
derived  from  crops  that  are  grown  with  chemical 
fertilizers. 

Products  claim  cures 

Some  manufacturers  and  sellers  of  vitamins, 
dietary  supplements  and  natural  foods  claim  that  their 
products  will  cure  everything  from  cancer  to  arthritis 
while  others  don't  even  call  what  they  sell  "health 
foods."  The  latter  is  more  correct  because  there  is 
nothing  especially  healthy  about  "health  foods." 

Stripped  of  misleading  claims  "health  foods"  are 
really  about  as  good  for  you  as  other  kinds  of  food  but 
usually  no  better. 

Many  items  in  "health  food"  stores  are  labeled 
natural.  There  is  no  es'ablished  meaning  for  this  word 
but  organic  has  to  come  to  mean  that  the  food  was 
produced  with  organic  fertilizers  rather  than 
chemical. 

In  the  case  of  meat  it  means  that  the  livestock  was 
raised  with  out  being  given  any  antibiotics  or  hor- 
mones. The  word  natural  means  the  food  contains  no 
additives  but  it  may  or  may  not  have  been  processed 
orqanically. 

Fertilizers  prove  harmful 

Agricultural  scientists  believe  that  the  use  of 
organic  fertilizers  don't  change  the  plants  any.  Plants 
can't  use  organic  matter  until  it  has  been  broken  down 
by  bacteria  into  organic  minerals. 

Very  little  is  known  about  the  possible  long-term 
effects  of  the  quantities  of  additives  we  eat  every  day 
with  our  food. 

The  biggest  danger  from  our  food  is  still  bacterial 
food  poisoning  afflicting  hundreds  of  people  each  year. 
Wide-scale  self-regulation  and  government  en- 
forcement of  standards  for  organic  or  health  foods 
won'thappen  overnight.  If  you're  interested  in  "health 
foods,"  you  should  keep  these  points  in  mind:  buying 
just  any  product  labeled  as  a  "health  food"  is  no 
guarantee  of  superior  nutrition.  Foods  honestly 
produced  with  natural  nutrients  intact  and  without 
chemical  sprays  can  be  had  for  a  price. 

In  conclusion,  being  a  health  nut  isn't  always  a 
healthy  or  cheap  pursuit.

Kick  return 


Luers  top  grid  men 


Elmhurst  played  one  of  its 
finest  games  of  the  season  last 
Saturday  night  only  to  be  beaten 
by  the  defending  city  champions 
the  Bishop  Luers  Knights  21-7 

Luers  fuUback  Bob  Patnoude 
ran  for  184-yards  and  three 
touchdowns  while  Mike 
Mungovan  completed  three 
passes  for  101-yards  to  lead  the 
Knights,  who  are  ranked  15th  in 
state,  to  their  fourth  straight 
victory. 

Luers  received  the  opening 
kick-off  and  marched  to  the 
Elmhurst  &-yard  line  where  the 
Trojan  defense  stiffened  and  held 
them  Later  in  the  first  Quarter 
the  Knights  went  45-yaras  in  8 
plays  with  Patnoude  making  the 
last  4- yards  for  the  score.  The  big 
play  of  the  drive  was  a  30-yard 
pass  from  Mungovan  to  halfback 
Paul  Berry  who  was  bumped  out 
on  the  Elmhurst  10-yard  line. 

Senior  halfback  Bob  Paschall 
took  the  second  half  kick-off  on 
his  10-yard  line,  made  several 
fine  cuts  and  received  some  good 
blocks  to  enable  him  to  go  90- 
yards  for  the  touchdown.  Senior 
Tom  Kennerk  made  a  23-yard

attempts  were  nullified  by 
procedure  penalities,  to  tie  the 
score  at  7-7  with  11:46  remaining 
in  the  third  quarter.

Football  team 
to  play  DeKalb 


Hoping  to  improve  on  their  2-2 
record  the  Trojans  will  try  to  be 
emotionally  ready  when  they 
meet  the  DeKalb  Barons  tonight 
after  a  tough  loss  to  Bishop  Luers 
last  Saturday,  The  game  starts  at 
7:30  and  will  be  played  a(  the 
DeKalb  stadium, 

DeKalb  is  coached  by  Mr,  John 
Platt  who  is  moving  into  his  sixth 
year  as  mentor  for  the  North- 
eastern Indiana  Conference 
squad.  Piatt's  team  which  con- 
sists of  65  men  with  9  returning 
lettermen  has  compiled  a  3-2 
record  this  season. 

The  Barons  use  the  wishbone-T 
in  the  offensive  backfield  with 
Dave  Chalfant  who  is  the  second 
leading  scorer  in  the  N.E.IC, 
starting  at  the  left  halfback 
position.  Other  standouts  for  the 
Barons  offensively  are  right 
halfback  Leonard  KotI  and 
quarterback  John  Plait. 

On  defense  the  Barons  employ 
a  6-1-4  formation  and  variations 
of  that  set-up.  "We  have  no  star 
player  on  defense  as  we  rely  on  a 
team  effort  most  of  the  time," 
slated  DeKalb  coach  John  Platt, 

DeKalb  will  be  coming  into  this 
game  after  a  33-6  loss  to  N.E  I,C, 
leader  Columbia  City  which  delt 
a  serious  blow  to  the  Barions  title 
hopes.  The  Barons  would  like 
nothing  better  than  (o  avenge  last 
week's  loss  with  an  upset  victory 
over  the  Trojans. 

"We're  looking  forward  to 
tonight's  game  and  we  feel  we 
can  play  well  and  give  the 
Trojans  a  good  game,"  stated 
Mr.  Platt 

"It  should  prove  to  be  a  hard 


fought  game  as  DeKalb  is  much 
improved  over  last  year,"  stated 
Elmhurst  head  coach  Warren 
Hoover,

Saints  crush 

sophomore 

footballers 

Last  Thursday  the  reserve 
football  team  suffered  their  third 
defeat  this  season  losing  to  the 
Bishop  Dwenger  Saints  by  a 
score  of  42-0, 

Both  teams  were  up  for  the 
game  but  the  Saints  outplayed 
the  bewildered  Trojans.  Dwenger 
had  little  trouble  in  clearly 
dominating  the  first  half. 
Team  held  scoreless 

As  the  third  quarter  started  the 
Trojans  began  to  gain  more 
yardage  and  hold  the  Saints  to 
less.  Twice  they  were  in  Saint 
territory  but  were  unable  to 
muster  a  score. 

Their  record  is  now  one  win  and 
three  losses.    In  the  remaining 
games  of  the  season  the  team  will   . 
face  Snider,  Concordia,  South 
Side,  and  Wayne 

Coach  Sweet  commented  after 
the  game,  "They  were  much 
more  spirited  than  we  were, 
which  helped  them  tremen- 
dously "

At  the  first  luncheon  Republican

was  really  interesting.  He  gave  his 
opinion  of  drunk  driving  ,  ,  .  he's  a 
member  of  the  President's  highway

money  would  be  appropriated  for

Dave  said. 

"He  also  Ulked  about  welfare  and 
making  more  jobs  for  the  poor  and 
those  on  welfare  He  said  the  people  on 
welfare  could  be  working  in  the  area  of

could  be  doing  things  like  cleaning  up 
the  highways  and  things  of  that  sort    ' 


"When  I  was  told  that  1  was  the  junior 
rotarian,  I  was  very  inquisitive  1  didn't 
know  what  it  was  or  anything.  I  was 
very  nervous,  but  after  I  got  there  and 
took  hold  of  (he  situation  1  relaxed,"  he 
commented,  "Most  of  (he  things  like 
this  are  very  formal  but  (his  was  fairly

Kennedy  lashes  Nixon, 
emphasizes  youth  vote 


By  Nancy  Frebel 

Anxious  spectators  spilled  onto  the  lawn 
at  Concordia  Senior  College  while  others 
crowded  near  the  auditorium  steps  awaiting 
a  handshake  from  Senator  Edward 
Kennedy.  The  Senator  addressed  a  group 
consisting  mainly  of  young  people  at  a  rally 
for  the  Democratic  candidates  at  the 
college  last  Friday. 

The  Bishop  Luers  High  School  band 
played  "This  Is  My  Country"  as  the 
Masschusetts  Senator  entpred  the 
auaitorium   amongst  the   cheering   crowd. 

Following  the  acknowledgement  of  the 
Democratic  candidates  Edward  Roush 
said,  "No  family  could  endure  more  than 
the  Kennedys  and  introduced  the  Senator  as 
the  "survivor  of  ttie  family." 

Among  the  several  AAcGovern  signs  were 
a  few  for  Nixon  as  Kennedy  quipped,  "They 
don't  have  a  rally  to  go  to."  He  delivered  the 


usual  political  plugging  and  then 
emphasized  the  importance  of  the  youth 
vote. 

He  said  it  was  the  young  people  who  got 
involved  in  the  eqiial  opportunities 
movement  in  the  mid  60's.  "  1  hey  are  the 
strong  force  in  attempting  to  change  the 
direction  of  the  nation." 

Kennedy  lashed  the  Nixon  Administration 
stating,  "The  most  sinister  aspects  are  the 
special  interest  societies  and  the  power  they 
have  over  laws  and  decisions. 

He  said  the  key  resource  for  funding  came 
from  the  ten  million  dollar  slesh  fund. 
Kennedy  feels  the  origin  of  all  campaign 
funds  should  not  be  kept  a  secret  but  "make 
the  records  open  to  the  public."  This  would 
uncover  "who's  trying  to  influence  the 
government." 

Kennejfy  also  attacked  the  administration 
for  its  connection  in  the  International 
Telephone  and  Telegraph  affair.  "Twenty- 


two  members  of  the  cabinet  had  contacts 
with  high  ITT  officials.  They  said  they  were 
talking  general  anti-trust  policies  although 
since  that  time  no  contact  has  been  made," 
he  asserted. 

"I  have  trouble  answering  the  questions 
of  a  returning  veteran  and  people  on 
welfare  in  Massachusetts.  It  takes  people  a 
year  to  get  an  answer  but  ITT  can  get  an 
answer,"  he  lashed. 

The  senator  said  people  must  set  their 
own  priorities  and  find  out  who  is  really 
running  the  country.  He  referred  to  the 
$780,000  contribution  to  members  of  the 
Congress  by  the  American  Medical 
Association  and  questioned  whether  the 
government  is  really  "being  responsive  to 
the  people  or  to  special  interest  groups." 

In  summation  of  his  IS-minute  speech 
Kennedy  stressed  that  26  million  young 
people  who  have  never  voted  before  will  be 
voting  in  this  presidential  election.  "If  they 
were  to  bond  together,  those  who  try  to 
interfere  with  government  would  be  voted 
out." 

"The  challenge  is  for  the  young  people. 
You  must  become  active  and  concerned 
with  the  issues  and  stand  up  for  America 
like  you  have  in  the  past."  f

Satire 


Trojon  statue  symbolizes  Polltjcal  speccties  dfaw  crowfls 


school's  spirit,  unity 

Tradition,  school  spirit  and  unity  are  words  whose 
relevance  seem  to  mean  little  to  the  student  body.  These 
are  ideas  of  days  gone  by  when  cheerblocks  flourished, 
football  games  were  attended  and  student  interest  in 
school  was  genuine. 

However,  a  figure  symbolic  of  these  lost  gestures 
still  remains  —  "Tommy  Trojan",  a  statue  of  a  Trojan 
warrior  symbolizing  the  loyalties  of  alma  maters.  His 
fate  is  to  be  placed  beneath  the  school  in  a  tunnel 
because  a  few  disrespectful  students  tried  to  remove 
him. 

The  six-foot  concrete  structure  was  presented  to 
Elmhurst  in  1969  by  Pat  Bir,  an  art  student.  Tommy  was 
Pat's  art  project  and  is  reinforced  with  steel  rods  and 
chicken  wire.  Twice  pranksters  attempted  to  remove 
Tommy  from  the  courtyard  the  second  of  v/hich  crushed 
the  base  of  the  statue  and  cracked  the  arm.  Principal 
Charles  Eickhoff  then  made  the  decision  to  place 
Tommy  beneath  the  school  where  no  harm  could  come 
to  him. 

Soon  after  his  graduation  Pat  was  killed  in  an 
automobile  accident.  What  could  have  been  a  memorial 
to  him  has  become  a  tombstone  collecting  cobwebs  both 
figuratively  and  literallv. 

Perhaps  Tommy  should  remain  in  the  tunnel 
because  of  his  damaged  state  and  a  new  Trojan  be 
constructed  to  signify  the  changes  Elmhurst  has 
undergone.  The  student  body  is  different  than  that  of 
four  years  past.  We  are  one  yet  our  divisions  still 
remain. 

We  are  now  a  body  of  society  reflecting  many  new 
faces  and  attitudes.  Some  hope  for  a  return  to  the  past 
outdated  euphoria  of  harmony.  A  new  Tommy  Trojan 
would  represent  this  student  body,  a  group  of  young 
adults  who  have  adjusted  to  the  pressures  of  the  cities. 

Those  of  us  who  live  in  the  pest  have  only  those 
memories  with  which  to  live.  Elmhurst's  unity  will  knit 
together  with  or  without  a  symbol  to  call  its  own. 
Unfornunately  it  relies  upon  a  select  few  to  give  rebirth 
to  Tommy.  Let  us  hope  they  realize  who  they  are  and 
will  take  it  as  their  responsibility  to  complete  it. 

Hair  presents  problems- 
history  reveals  dispute 

Hair.  Is  it  a  tad,  a  style,  a  revolution  or  a  Broadway 
play?  A  very  natural  thing  has  caused  a  tremendous 
amount  of  controversy  in  the  past  and  particularly 
today. 

It  is  sometimes  difficult  to  determine  if  a  person  is 
wearing  his  or  her  hair  for  reasons  of  spite  or  style.  Too 
many  times  it  is  believed  youth  is  changing  its  stytes  for 
revolt  and  rebellion  against  the  "establishment." 
Perhaps  they  like  the  way  their  hair  is  styled,  combed  or 
sprayed. 

Remember  the  raised  eyebrows  when  the  Beatles 
appeared  on  The  Ed  Sullivan  Show?  Hair,  almost 
covering  their  ears!  How  horrifying!  Why  would  anyone 
want  to  go  in  public  looking  like  that?  Well,  it  seems  they 
were  the  ones  who  started  this  generation's  styles. 

Job  applications,  school  and  some  adult  acceptance 
all  depend  on  your  appearance,  particularly  on  your 
hair.  Is  he  a  clean  cut  all  American  boy  or  does  he  have 
long  greasy  hair  and  wear  blue  jeans?  Perhaps  it  has 
been  proven  that  long  hair  causes  irresponsibilfy,  an 
incapability  to  work  and  laziness.  Has  it  been  proven  or 
is  it  just  the  opinion  of  many  old  fashioned  "short 
hairs?" 

Sometimes  the  topic  of  hair  is  ridiculous.  Why 
should  a  person's  head  covering  determine  their 
personality?  Granted,  personal  appearance  plays  a  role 
in  first  impressions  but  hair  has  been  over  emphasized.

Appearing  in  Fort 
Wayne  last  week  were  top

straight  from  daily 
showings  on  Capitol  Hill. 
More  noticible  though,  was 
the  atmosphere  attained 
during  this  fanfair  of 
political  haranguing  and 
personal  hornblowing. 


With  all  age  groups 
represented,  thousands  mulled 
around  beforehand  in  hopes  of 
catching  a  glimpse  of  the  speaker 
or  even,  if  fortiinate,  getting  to 
loss  his  hand.  If  you  managed  to 
make  it  into  the  center  of  the 
crowd,  the  usual  pressure  of  250- 
pound,  60-vearold  ladies  could  be 
felt  pushing  vou  from  all  sides. 
Grinning  little  fans  ran  betu'een 
your  legs,  at  the  same  time 
carrying  posters  to  fight  off  the 
crowd.

Candidate:  Matt  Welsh 


Wel-sh,  who  served  as  governor  of  Indiana  from 
1961-1965  emphasized  he  doesn't  approve  of  any  18- 
year-old  dritiking  but  if  they  wish  to  have  access  to 
it  they  will  obtain  it  regardless.  For  this  reason  he 
also  believes  if  18-year-olds  are  permitted  to  drink  it 
will  have  little  effect  on  the  traffic  death  tolls. 

Referring  lo  George  McGovern's  welfare 
program,  Welsh  explained,  "Mr.  McGovern's 
welfare  program  has  been  changed  two  to  three 
times.  It  is  probably  impractical  but  1  don't  know 
exactly  what  it  is.  He  is  proposing  that  the 
additional  earnings  go  up  to  $3,000  without 
jeopardizing  social  security." 
Plan  receives  criticism 

The  C-SELM  project,  proposed  by  Chicago  to 
eliminate  pollution  problems,  would  dump  garbage 

onto  1,600  square  miles  of  valuable  Indiana  farm 
land.  Welsh  feels  this  program  will  "never  occur 
because  the  stale  has  already  passed  a  resolution 
stating  it  would  never  approve  it  (the  project)," 

Welsh  went  on  to  describe  the  needs  of  Indiana 
concerning  pollution,  "We.  as  a  state,  must 
strengthen  funding  of  a  State  Board  of  Health  —  we 
don't  have  one  now.  The  general  funding  of  the  state 
proportioned  by  the  federal  government  would  have 
to  be  enough  to  meet  minimal  standards," 

Presently  the  state  furnishes  30  percent  of  the 
operating  costs  for  the  school  system.  Welsh 
proposes  the  state  assume  two-thirds  of  this  cost- 
This  plan  accordingly  would  reduce  property  taxes 
although  sales,  income  and  corporate  taxes  would 
have  to  be  redistributed.  Welsh  said  the  slate  will 
have  to  restructure  these   taxes    with    the    final 


decision  left  to  the  legislature, 

Referring  to  parochial  schools.  Welsh  stated, 
"TheSupremeCourt  hasnot  approved  any  methods 
which  have  been  used  to  make  funds  available. 
Public  funds  are  used  to  an  extent  already  "  He 
added,  "As  far  as  teaching  salaries  the  court  has 
never  approved  any  program  which  has  been 
tried," 

Welsh  feels  the  state  scholarship  program  and 
student  loan  funding  should  be  increased.  "It  is 
necessary  to  make  funds  available  in  greater 
amount  than  previously,  ' 

Welsh  agrees  witn  ivicGovern  s  stand  on  amnesty 
and  explained  the  Unites  States  cannot  grant 
amnesty  until  after  the  conclusion  of  the  hostilities. 

Concerning  legalization  oi  marijuana  Welsh 
commented  v/e  should  follow  the  advice  of  the 
experts,  including  the  Medical  and  Indiana  Bar 
AssoQJations,  who  say  possession  should  be  only  a 
misdemenor.  "It  is  still  illegal  although  it  is  not  a 
felony." 

Welsh  attacked  the  job  quota  regulations  calling 
them  mechanical  He  feels  that  hiring  a  certain 
percentage  of  Blacks,  Whites  and  females  does  not 
take  all  elements  of  the  problem  into  consideration. 
"People  should  be  employed  because  of  their 
abilities,"  he  emphasized.  He  also  said,  "We  must 
do  a  great  deal  more  to  encourage  Black 
employment.  The  quota  is  not  the  only  answer." 

Drug  addicts  are  the  major  cause  of  the  increase 
in  crime  according  to  the  gubernatorial  candidate. 
He  advocates  an  effective  drug  abuse  control 
program  enabling  the  state  to  "help  local 
communities  combat  the  problem." 


Insurance  needs  reform 


An  area  now  being 
considered  for  reform  by 
both  state  and  federal 
government,  auto  in-

inequities  in  its  present 
form.

No-fault  insurance  is  the  prime 
lalemative  to  present  standards 
of  accident  compensation.  No- 
fault  pays  claims  no  matter  who 
is  at  fault  in  a  traffic  accident 
Rather  than  having  one  in- 
surance company  pay  for  all 
damages,  each  person's  policy 
covers   his   claim.    This   would 


eliminate  problems  with  claims 
between    insurance    companies. 

Critics  of  the  plan  claim  that 
people  who  have  a  right  to  ap- 
propriate compensations  aren't 
protected  under  this  system. 
However,  a  no-fault  program 
could  be  devised  to  guarantee 
this  right. 

Although  auto  insurance  is 
badly  in  need  of  changes,  few 
states  have  taken  the  necessary 
initiative  to  do  anything  about  it. 
During  Indiana's  next  meeting  of 
the  legislature,  hopefully 
changes  in  our  state's  insurance 
laws  will  occur 

Under  present  conditions,  auto 
insurance  deserves  much 
examination  with  the  need  for  a 
more  efficient  and  fair  method  of 
dealing  with  accident  com- 
pensations. 


Biking  newest  trend 

The  booming  bicycle  thing  Last  year  it  resulted  in 
the  sale  of  some  eight  and  a  half  million  bicycles.  This 
year  the  figure  should  exceed  ten  million,  according  to 
the  Bicycle  Institute  of  America. 

People  «»ho  haven't  been  on  a  bike  since  grade 
school  are  suddenly  pouring  out  their  hard  earned 
money  into  Sports  Tourers  and  five  and  ten  speed  racing 
bikes. 

Fifteen  thousand  miles  of  bikeways  have  been  built 
in  the  past  three  years  and  the  federal  government  is 
discussing  adding  100,000  miles  more.  Biking  has  gone 
from  a  once  in  a  while  on  Sundays  thing  to  an  accepted 
means  of  transportation-a  new  vacation  way  to  explore. 

Bicycling  is  generally  regarded  as  good  exercise. 
"Medical  authorities  agree  that  running,  jogging, 
swimming  and  cycling  are  the  three  top  sports  to 
develop  endurance- type  body  muscles  and  increase  the 
work  ability  of  heart  and  lungs,"  reports  Dr.  Fred 
Brandt,  in  a  recent  issue  of  the  magazine  Bicycling. 

Once  you  get  the  bicycling  fever,  what  kind  of  bike 
should  you  get?  For  riding  across  town  to  school  or 
taking  occasional  long  rides,  ifs  best  to  use  a  single 
speed  or  three-speed  bicycle.  If  you're  interested  in  long 
distance  riding  you'll  want  a  ten  or  fifteen  speed  bike.  If 
you  dcn't  have  much  storage  space  the  new  folding 
models  are  available. 

Most  people  think  bicycles  are  for  short  rides  in  the 
country;  quite  the  contrary,  an  in-shape  bicyclist  can 
cover  between  sixty  and  one  hundred  miles  a  day  and 
now  people  are  taking  long  bike  vacations  traveling  as 
far  as  several  hundred  miles  or  more. 

If  you're  interested  in  touring  a  good  group  to 
contact  is  American  Youth  Hostels.  They  sponsor  long- 
distance group  bike  trips  throughout  the  country  and 
.abroad. 

Equipment  needed  includes  a  sleeping  bag,  tent, 
cooking  gear,  and  bicycle  stuff  that  shouldn't  exceed 
thirty  pounds.  These  supplies  should  be  carried  as  low 
on  the  bike  as  possible  for  easy  peddling. 

So  now  all  you  cycling  freaks  get  out  there  before 
the  snow  flies  and  hit  the  road!

Variety  was  achieved  through 
the  moving  of  boards  and 
sawhorses  danced  upon  by  the 
rag-clad  cast.  The  show  in- 
nocently acts  out  the  parables  of 
the  Sower  of  Seeds,  the  Good 
Samaritan,  the  Prodigal  Son  and 
others  mixed  with  satire  and 
slapstick  comedy, 

Christ  is  portrayed  as  a  good, 
kind,  likeable  person  who  every 
once  in  a  while  gets  his 
playmates  to  listen  to  whal  he  has 
to  say. 
Crowd  lakes  communion 

At  the  end  of  the  first  act  the 
audience  was  invited  upon  the 
stage  for  a  small  glass  of  wine 
(grape  juicei  to  symbolize 
communion,  although  it 
somewhat  broke  the  line  of  the 
show. 

The  Last  Supper,  the  betrayal 
and  the  crucifixion  take  place  in 
the  second  act.  The  crucifixion  is 
dramatized  by  tying  Jesus,  who 
wears  a  shirt  bearing  a  big  red 
Superman  emblem,  to  the  fence 
and  the  cast  writhes  clinging  to 


the  fence  on  both  sides  of  him 
while  lights  flash  and  the  band 
plays  acid-rock  music. 

They  carry  the  body  of  Christ 
off  stage  and  out  through  the

"Everyone  should  be  active 
politically,  no  one  has  the  right  to 
push  pollution,"  he  added.  The 
time  has  come  for  community 
planning,  we  have  to  make  a 
study  of  the  nature  of  the  land, 
and  set  aside  the  most  fertile  land 
for  agriculture.  We  must  develop 
recycling  techniques  through  the 
-olitical  process,  expressed  Dr. 
Gottleib,  who  has  worked  for 
Union  Carbide.  He  warned  that 
industry  won't  pay  for  pollution 
decixes,  but  that  we  will. 

Dr.  Gottleib  said  that  in  our 
environment  water  plays  an 
important  role  There  are  very 
few  places  where  water  is 
cleaned.  "Every  year  medical 
industries  produce  500  to  1000 
chemical  compounds  and  those 
compounds  eventually  find  their 
way  into  our  water  supply. 

Phosphates  are  one  of  our  head 
pollutants,  adds  Dr.  Gottleib,  and 
one  third  of  the  phsophates  in  our 
water  supply  come  from 
household  materials.  Indiana 
was  the  lirst  state  in  the  Union  to 
ban  phosphates. 

Another  source  of  pollution  is 
the  contaminents  that  forest  fires 
put  out.  Air  pollution  has  been 
with  us  since  the  industrial 
revolution.  An  example  of  this  is 
Los  Angeles,  which  has  a  marked 
crop  destruction  from  sujfer  and

The  question  thai  Dr  Gottleib 
posed  many  times  during  his  talk 
and  one  thai  we  will  all  have  to 
answer  someday  is,  "Who  gave

Players  tell  pre-game  habits 


Smile! 


Senior  Chris  Johnson  lets  loose  a  big  smile  as  he  crosses 
the  finish  line  first  ina  cross  country  meet  at  Wayne 
High  School.  Five  teams  were  entered  in  the  meet  with 
Elmhurst  finishing  fourth.  Tomorrow  the  team  travels 
to  Indianapolis  to  run  in  the  Patriot  Invitational. 

Runners  down  North 
for  first  season  win 


Experiencing  emotions 
ranging  from  anxiety  to 
hatred,  football  players 
use  various  techniques  to 
prepare  themselves 
physically  and  mentally 
for  a  game. 

Senior  guard  Roland 
Bynum  stated  he  doesn't 
get  nervous  until  he  gets  to 
the  locker  room  and  the 
whistle  blows  for  the  start 
of  the  ganne.  "During  the 
game  you've  got  to  keep 
your  spirit  up  and  don't  let 
yourself  get  down." 

Players  reveal  charms 

Senior  Tom  Kennerk  believes 
polishing  his  shoes  before  every 
game  will  bring  him  luck  while 
junior  Joe  Rondot  uses  a  new  roll 
of  tape  on  his  ankles  each  game. 

Senior  guard  Charles  Williams 
commented,  "If  Nate  (Brown) 
and  1  don't  sit  together  on  the  bus 
we  won't  win." 

"Before  every  game  1  pray  that 
nobodv  gels  hurt  and  we  do  our 
best  After  that  I  feel  like  playing 
football,"  remarked  senior  end 
Don  Miller  Before  a  game  Don 
plays  catch  or  runs  a  little  in  his 
backyard. 

Seating  arrangements  are 
important  to  some  players  as  Don 
alwavs  sits  by  senior  quar- 
terback Dave  Butler,   "We  talk 


over     plays     and     plan     our 
strategy.  "Don  commented. 
Socks  bring  luck 

Purchasing  a  new  pair  of  socks 
for  every  game  brings  luck  to 
senior  tackle  Tom  Davis.  He  also 
makes  sure  he  puis  his 
mouthpiece  on  Ihe  left  side  of  the 
cage  on  his  football  helmet. 

"I  work  up  a  hatred  for  the 
opposing  team  and  think  about 
the  guy  I'm  gomg  agamsl," 
stated  senior  lackle  John  Hoard. 
In  order  to  prepare  himself 
mentally  he  conlempiales  the 
game  all  week  and  reviews  his 
playbook  He  must  have  a  "clean 
white  T-shirt,  perfectly  white 
with  no  rips  or  tears"  for  every 
game,  "I  have  to  sit  next  to  Steve 
Miller  on  the  left  side  of  the  bus 
by  the  emergency  exit.  He  sits  by 
the  window  and  Isit  by  the  aisle." 
John  explained, 

Senior  back  John  Adams  feels 
the  team  members  have  a  lot  of 
responsibility  as  so  many  play 
both  offense  and  defense,  '1  play 
as  hard  as  I  can  and  win  or  lose  I 
know  I  did  my  best,"  he  em- 
phasized. John  goes  into  a  game 
hungry  because  "reactions  are 
quicker  '  He  wears  a  chain 
around  his  neck  and  his  Wildcat 
T-shirt  for  every  game. 
Player  stays  loose 

Differing  from  the  other 
players,  senior  end  Steve  Miller 
doesn't  think  about  the  game 
because  it  builds  up  too  much 
pressure.  "I  like  to  stay  loose  and 
get  psyched  up  to  a  point  but  no! 
overdo  it,"  he  commented.  When 


Steve  is  not  playing  he  likes  to 
"look  up  in  the  stands  and  see 
who  came  out  to  watch  us,"  I  like 
to  sit  by  the  window  on  the  bus 
and  gaze  out  and  ask  the  Lord  to 
stay  with  us  and  help  us  play  our 
best  game." 

Listening  to  a  record  before  a 
game  relaxes  senior  back  Ron 
Talley  "During  the  day  I  try  to 
gel  angry  and  think  about  what 
I'm  going  to  do."  Ron  doesn't  eat 
all  day  because  "the  hungrier 
you  are  the  meaner  you  are," 
Junior  wears  wristband 

Junior  guard  Jack  Wolfe  plays 
a  record  before  a  game  although' 
he  doesn't  really  listen,  "I  just  sit 
down  and  think."  Jack  said  he  is 
usually  too  nerv^ous  to  eat  before 
a  game  and  tries  to  relax  by 
watching  a  movie  As  a  lucky 
charm  he  wears  a  red  wristband 
on  his  left  wrist. 

"The  night  before  a  game  I 
always  have  a  dream  picturing 
the  whole  game  and  what  I  will 
do  It's  like  watching  it  on 
television,"  senior  back  Bob 
Paschall  revealed  "I  put  on  my 
favorite  tuen  as  it  is  important  to 
be  loose  before  a  game  and  a 
record  helps  me,"  he  added. 

Bob  wears  a  red  rag  under  his 
left  sock  each  game  "It's  from  a 
worn  out  pad  from  junior  high 
school  and  I've  been  playing  with 
it  since  my  sophomore  year," 
"You  always  have  to  be  alert 
when  playing,  remember  your 
responsibilities  and  anticipate 
beyond  that,"  he  added.

staging  a  superb  rally  the 
Trojans  tallied  15  points  in  the 
third  quarter  last  Fridav  night  to 
beat  Ihe  DeKalb  Barons  21-20  at 
the  Barons'  home  field  Com- 
bining DeKalb's  deception  in 
their  offensive  backfield  and  fine 
running  with  Elmhurst's  inability 
to  do  much  right,  the  Trojans 
found  themselves  behind  20-0  at 
one  point  in  the  first  half.  In  the 
second  half  the  Trojans  defense 
stiffened  while  the  offense  moved 
well  on  the  ground  and  in  the  air. 

DeKalb  scored  the  first  time 
they  had  possession  of  the  ball 
following  an  Elmhurst  turnover 
The  Baron's  Leonard  Kott  went 
53-yards  around  the  right  end  for 
the  score,  however,  the  extra 
point  attempt  was  blocked  by 
senior  John  Adams 
DeKalb  scores  again 

Later  in  the  second  quarter 
Kott  scored  on  a  14-yard  run  and 
the  Barons  made  the  2  point 
conversion  on  a  pass  Irom  John 
Piatt  to  Chris  Phillips  making  the 
score  14-0  In  the  second  quarter 
DeKalb's  Dave  Chalfant  went  41- 
yards  for  the  score  with  aid  from 
some  fine  execution  in  the 
Baron's  offensive  backfield.  The 
conversion  attempt  failed. 

Senior  quarterback  Dave 
Butler  hit  senior  end  Don  Miller 
with  a  40-yard  aerial  for  our 
initial  touchdown  which  started 
the  comeback.  The  conversion 
failed  and  the  score  was  20-6  at 


halftime, 

Trojans  continue  rally 

Earlv  in  the  third  quarter  the 
Trojans  began  a  drive  which  was 
capped  by  senior  John  Adams 
running  6-yards  for  the  score, 
Dave  Butler  dropped  back  to  pass 
on  the   2  point  conversion   and 


finding  his  receivers  covered 
kept  the  ball  and  ran  it  in  himself, 

Butler  then  connected  senior 
halfback  Bob  Paschall  with  a  50- 
yard  pass  and  rim  play  to  tie  the 
score  after  which  senior  Tom 
Kennerk  split  the  uprights  to  give 
the  Trojans  a  l  point  lead 

Head  coach  Warren  Hoover 


stated,  "I  was  glad  to  see  the 
team  had  the  determination  for 
the  comeback  and  not  give  up 
when  they  were  down.  I  felt  they 
performed  well  in  the  second  half 
and  1  was  happy  to  see  our  of-

Elmhurst  will  piay  its  second 
southern  division  game  tonight 
against  the  always  powerful 
South  Side  Archers.  Although 
both  teams  have  little  chance  of 
being  in  the  city  title  game,  it 
should  prove  to  be  one  of  the  best 
matchups  of  the  night 

The  Archers  were  picked  as 
one  of  the  best  teams  in  the  city 
before  the  season  started  but 
have  failed  to  become  the  ex- 
cellent team  they  were  expected 
to  be  finding  themselves  with  a  1- 
3  record.  South  Side  has  lost  to 
Bishop  Luers  29-13,  New  Haven 
21-20  and  Kokomo  Hayworth  21-6 
and  has  defeated  the  Wayne 
Generals  12-7, 
Lettermen  help  team 

The  dean  of  high  school 
roaches  Mr  Gemand  has  60  men 
on  the  football  squad  with  13 
returning  lettermen  from  last 
year's  team  which  had  a  5-4 
record,

The  South  Side  5-3-3  defense  is 
headed  by  Art  Chambers  at 
defensive  end  and  middle 
linebacker  John  ARnoid  Also 
playing  some  fine  defense  for  the 
ARchers  are  linebacker  Mike 
Gillig  and  safety  William  Russell. 
Teams  play  well 

The  Trojans  played  one  of  their 
finest  games  of  last  year's  season 
when  they  met  the  Archers,  only 
to  be  defeated  20-14,  In  the  last 
seconds  of  the  game,  an 
Elmhurst  drive  stalled  on  the 
Soulh  Side  6-yard  line  just  inches 
short  of  a  first  down. 

'I  think  it  will  be  real  close  and 
1  expect  it  to  be  like  last  year's 
game  with  both  teams  playing 
well"  stated  Mr.  Gernand 

"South  Side  is  a  traditional 
rival  and  they  are  much  tougher 
than  their  record  shows,  but  if  we 
play  good  tough  football  we'll 
beal'em."  stated  head  coach 
Warren  Hoover

Solo  team  places  fifth 


Eight  of  ten  members  on  the 
solo  debate  team  received 
ribbons  at  Chesterton  High 
School  in  Chesterton,  Indiana 
last  Saturday  while  competing 
in  the  debate  tournament  there. 

Competing  against  26  other 
Indiana  high  schools,  the  solo 
team  placed  fifth  overall.  The 
debate  team  is  divided  into  two 


divisions,  novice  and  varsity. 
On  the  novice  team,  sophomore 
Beverly  Free  placed  fourth  in 
oratorical  declamation.  This 
area  of  speaking  involves 
presenting  an  award-winning 
speech  by  a  famous  author  and 
including  all  gestures  and 
motions  as  the  author  would 
have  presented  it. 


Board  accepts

f> 


Rules  for  girl's  athletics  were 
adopted  by  the  Board  of  School 
Trustees  Oct.  9.  The  Athletic 
Senior  Commission  had  drawn 
up  the  guidelines. 

"There  will  be  a  sport 
scheduled  for  each  season," 
said  athletic  director  AAr.  Jerry 
Bush,  "with  no  overlapping 
sports."  However,  there  will  be 
no  winter  sports  at  Elmhurst 
because  of  a  lack  of  facilities. 

"I  don't  know  where  we  are 
going  to  have  our  sports,"  said 
Wr,  Bush.  "When  you  talk 
about  a  program  inside,  we 
only  have  two  floors  available 
which  are  already  being  used 
by  the  boys." 
Rules  require  one  coach 

Volleyball  Is  the  fall  sport  this 


season  but  Elmhurst  will  not 
participate  because  there  is  no 
coach  or  facilities.  It  is  not 
compulsory  that  schools  offer 
girls'  athletics,  but  it  was 
suggested  by  the  Fort  Wayne 
Coaches  Association. 

An  interest  and  desire  to 
participate  in  sports  is  required 
before  the  girl's  sports 
program  will  be  started. 
Availability  of  a  woman  coach 
is  necessary,  as  stated  by  the 
School  Board  of  Trustees.  Only 
one  coach  per  sport  is  per- 
mitted and  will  receive  a  set  fee 
for  her  services. 
Area  schools  compete 

Fort  Wayne  Community  and 
parochial  schools  will  compete, 
along     with      Allen      County 


schools.  Participation  in 
tournaments  is  left  up  to  the 
disgression  of  the  individual 
principal.  Admission  for  all 
games  will  be  75  cents. 

Volleyball,  gymnastics  and 
track  tournaments  are  being 
held  by  the  Indiana  High  School 
Athletic  Association. 

Girls  will  be  required  to  meet 
the  same  rules  of  male  athletes. 
They  will  be  governed  by  the 
IHSAA.  Eligibility  requires  a 
passing  grade  in  four  sol  id 
subjects  and  other  IHSAA 
rules. 

Games  need  officials 

Licensed  officials  are 
required  at  all  games. 
However,  because  of  the  lack  of 
rated  officials  in  the  area, 
temporary  certification  must 
be  given  to  some  chosen  of- 
ficials. 

Decision  son  participation  of 
a  particular  sport  will  be  made 
by  the  athletic  department,  the 
physical  education  department 
and  the  final  decision  being 
made  by  Principal  Charles 
Eickhoff. 


Also  on  the  novice  solo  team,  senior 
Ann  Fox  received  a  second  place  ribbon 
for  girl's  extemporaneous.  In  this 
division  the  speaker  has  45  minutes  to 
prepare  a  five  to  seven  minute  speech 
using  "U.  S.  News."  "Newsweek"  and 
"Time"  magazines  as  references. 

Novice  members  place 

The  novice  debate  team,  consisting  of 
various  speakers  received  first  place 
while  the  varsity  team  failed  to  place. 
The  debate  teams  work  as  a  group 
where  the  solo  division  consists  of  in- 
dividual events.  Seniors  Susan  Fritz- 
sche  and  Hans  Zorn  competed  in  the 
varsity  debate. 

In  the  varisty  solo  competition  senior 
Barb  Anderson  placed  fourth  in 
oratorical  declamation  while  senior 
Betty  Hart  placed  third  and  junior 
Linda  Bellis  placed  sixth  in  the  same 
division. 

Semor  Lujean  Fritz  received  a 
second  place  ribbon  in  the  girl's  ex- 
temporaneous competition  and  junior 
Kay  Freygang  placed  fifth  in  drama 
with  a  selection  from  "West  Side 
Story  "  In  dramatic  speaking  the 
competor  must  present  a  cut  from  a 
dramatic  play  and  include  all 
characters  The  speech  must  last  from 
eight  to  ten  minutes. 

Team  completes  tomorrow 

In  the  numerous  division  junior  Ruth 
Gilland  failed  to  place  along  with 
sophomore  Mary  Freygang  in  drama, 
numerous  speeches  are  also  cuts  from 
plays  and  last  from  eight  to  ten 
minutes.  Ruth's  selection  was  from  the 
comedy  "Plaza  Suite"  by  Neil  Simon. 

All  speeches  with  the  exception  of  the 
extemporaneous,  are  memorized 
previously  and  are  repeated  each  week 
in  the  various  tournaments. 

The  Elmhurst  debate  team  travels 
next  to  Southwood  High  School 
tomorrow,  LuJean  commented,  "The 
team  is  doing  great,  better  than  last 
year.  This  time  80  percent  of  those 
competing  received  ribbons  and  both 
Mr  Storey  (debate  team  coach)  and 
myself  are  very  proud."

Navy  officials  refused  to  give  detailed  information 
on  a  racial  brawl  aboard  the  carrier  Kitty  Hawk.  The 
disturbance  injured  46  people  sending  3  to  hospttals  on 

shore.  , 

According  to  the  New-SentineL  a  navy  spokesman 
said,  "At  this  point  we  don't  have  anything  we  can 
give  you."  No  details  on  weapons,  number  of  people 
involved,  disciplinary  actions  or  names  of  injured 
people  have  been  released.  An  official  investigation 
must  be  completed  before  any  further  information  will 

be  released.  ,    -u  • 

Many  Americans  might  be  concerned  of  their 
husbands,  brothers  or  sons  aboard  the  Kitty  Hawk  and 
are  entitled  to  any  facts  which  can  be  given  to  them. 
This  vague  report  from  the  Navy  seems  to  rob 
Americans  of  their  right  to  be  informed.  Secrets  kept 
from  citizens  tend  to  imply  that  they  are  not  respon- 
sible enough  to  learn  of  activities  affecting  their  hves. 
Many  unknown  facts  have  been  kept  from 
Americans  and  have  been  the  secrets  of  officials  from 
the  United  States  and  other  countries.  Average,  every 
day  voters  have  not  been  informed  of  an  abundance  of 
procedures  as  shown  by  past  incidents  such  as  the 
Pentegon  Papers.  Is  this  just  one  example  of  many 
safeguarded  secrets? 

Because  this  is  the  problem  of  everyone,  people 
must  work  together  to  improve  the  situation.  A  start 
might  be  letters  to  local,  state  and  national  leaders  to 
inform  them  of  the  insult  being  paid  to  Americans. 
They  may  believe  we  are  disinterested  in  the  activities 
of  leaders  around  the  world.  The  Navy  situation  is  just 
one  case  in  which  several  people  are  involved  and  have 
no  facts  to  rely  on. 

Because  we  are  being  somewhat  ignorea,  our 
actions  must  improve  this  disservice.  It  will  only  be 
our  concern  that  will  change  the  present  situation. 


Personality  and  ap- 
pearance —  two  things  by 
which  people  are  judged. 
Classifying  by  these  two 
means  may  be  perfectly 
legitimate  for  personal 
observations  but  this 
seems  unjust  as  a  yard- 
stick for  measuring 
disciplinary  action. 


Students  are  constantly  being 
judged  by  the  way  they  present 
themselves  to  the  deans  and  not 
by  the  actual  violation.  The 
Behavioria!  Code  Book  for  the 
Fort  Wayne  Community  Schools. 
outlines  specific  punishments  for 
misconduct.  Often  these  guides 
are  interpreted  unfavorably  for 
unappealing  students. 
Pamphlet  explains  actions 

This   pamphlet,    which   was 
mailed  to  every  student,  lists  a 


course  ot  action  whereby 
students  may  defend  themselves. 
It  calls  for  a  hearing  to  be  held  in 
front  of  an  impartial  judge.  A 
student  must  ask  for  this  hearing 
where  he  may  voice  his  opinion  of 
the  circumstances  involved  and 
the  punishment  to  be  ad- 
ministered. Unfortunately  this 
means  is         conveniently 

overlooked  and  in  many  cases  a 
student  is  suspended  from  school 


Student  often  appear  unkept 
and  particularly  loud  when  they 
are  sent  to  the  deans  for 
misconduct.  It  is  human  nature  to 
automatically  attempt  to  defend 
oneself  whether  it  be  violent  or 
passive  Counselors  must  take 
into  consideration  the  position  of 
the  student  and  picture  them- 
selves in  that  position. 
Background  reveals  difference 
Too  frequently  guidance 
counselors  dismiss  the  student 
with  a  punishment  without 
looking  beyond  the  surface  If,  in 
fact  they  took  time  to  examine  a 
student's  background  they  would 
find  themselves  reacting  dif- 
ferently and  possibly  favoring  the 
student. 

At  the  other  extreme  are  the 
fast-talkers  who  after  foaming 
and  beggmg  succeed  m  receiving 
the  lightest  punishment  or  no 
punishment  at  all.  Counselors 
should  be  aware  of  these  students 
and  not  accept  their  sob  stories. 
Judging  a  student's  sincerity  is 
bv  no  means  easy  but  those  who 
are  in  position  to  judge  should 
weigh  their  responsibilities  more 
heavily  and  react  accordingly.

In  the  past,  students  were  given 
ballots  and  asked  to  nominate 
four  students  without  really 
knowing  those  who  were  actually 
qualified  to  fill  the  position. 
Under  these  conditions  it  was 
impossible  for  the  student  body  to 
t^ke  the  elect-ons  seriously. 

An  appropriate  way  to  in- 
troduce sophomores  to  one 
another  would  be  to  hold  a  class 
breakfast.  At  the  same  time. 
class  dues  could  be  collected 
from  each  student.  Students 
would  then  be  able  to  informally 
discuss  plans  for  class  activities 


Although  class  representatives 
don't  have  any  decision  making 
power  presently,  they  could 
handle  those  responsibilities  left 
by  the  defunct  Student  Council. 
This  would  put  the  respon- 
sibilities in  the  hands  of  a  smaller 
group  than  the  Student  Council, 
but  perhaps  decisions  could  be 
made  quicker  This  would 
require  able  representatives. 

Class  presidents,  in  the  past, 
have  been  little  more  than  a 
figureheads  of  the  school.  All 
decisions  were  handled  by  the 
administration,  regardless  of 
their  importance.  Rather  than 
continuing  this  tradition,  it  seems 
only  practical  to  aUow  students 
the  privilege  of  electing 
representatives  who  can  fulfill 
goals. 


Candidate:  Richard  Nixon 


EDITOR'S  NOTE:  This  is  the  fifth  in 
a  series  of  stories  covering  the  carrent 
campaign  on  the  local,  slate  and 
national  level. 

Richard  M  Nixon  has  b^un  his  quest 
tor  re-election  to  the  White  House.  Mr, 
Nixon  has  much  wealth  within  the 
Republican  party  thus,  his  campaign 
should  be  very  expensive  with  complete 
unification.  The  issues  of  the  "72 
campaign  seem  to  be  more  domestic 
than  that  of  '68.  People  are  realizing 
America's  needs. 

It  is  a  fact  that  Mr.  Nixon  has 
decreased  greatly  our  military  in- 
volvement and  personnel  in  Vietnam. 
He  has  brought  home  90  percent  of  our 
troops.  When  Nixon  entered  the  White 
House  in  1969,  there  were  S49,000  troops 
in  Vietnam.  To  date,  there  are  ap- 
proximately 39,000  troops  in  Vietnam  . 
Ue-escalation  brings  awareness 

me  winding  down  oi  me  war  has 
brought  people  back  to  a  national 
awareness  involving  economics,  en- 
vironment, crime,  welfare,  drugs  and 
housing.  Mr,  Nixon's  past  action  upon 
these  prtblems  will  be  an  important 
factor  in  nis  search  for  a  second  term. 
Mr.  Nbon's  price-freeze  was  one  of 


his  attacKs  upon  inflation.  "As  a  result 
of  this  action,  the  rate  of  inflation  under 
the  new  program  has  been  about  3 
percent.  Not  perfect,  but  half  of  what  it 
was  when  the  President  came  into 
office."  It  is  too  bad  Mr,  Nixon  had  to 
wait  until  August  1971  in  order  to  utilize 
the  price-freeze  method. 

"The  President  has  submitted  tough 
new  laws  to  regulate  pesticides, 
national  land  use,  noise  (particularly 
that  from  airplanes  and  trucks),  toxic 
chemical  substances  (the  Toxic  Waste 
Proposal  Act  provides  for  Federal 
enforcement  in  states  lacking  their  own 
program ) ,  and  exhaustive  pre-planning 
of  power  plant  sites  to  assure  that  our 
energy  needs  can  be  supplied  without 
violating  our  enviornment.  ' 

In  the  national  fight  against  crime  his 
"law-enforcement  policies  have  cut  the 
increase  in  the  nation's  serious  crime 
rate  to  1  percent  in  the  first  quarter  of 
this  year.  Eight  (over  half)  of  our 
major  cities  have  actual  decreases  in 
crime,  and  Washington  D.  C.  has 
achieved  a  30  percent  decrease  over 
last  year  alone."  The  President  has 
alsu  given  increased  aid  to  states  and 
localities  for  increased  state  aid. 


Now  more  than  ever  drugs  are  on  the 
American  scene;  and  their  ill^al  use 
has  become  an  imoortant  issue 

"The  President  won  an  agreement 
from  Turkey  to  place  a  total  ban  on  the 
growing  of  opium  poppy  .  .  .  made  an 
agreement  with  France  to  assist  in 
halting  the  traffic  of  drugs  and 

stepped  up  arrests  of  pushers.  He  is 
spending  six  times  more  for 
rehabilitation  and  five  times  more  for 
drug  education  than  ever  before."  This 
year  he  is  spending  $371  million  to  fight 
drug  abuse. 

The  President  is  greatly  increasing 
funds  for  subsidized  housing,  fair 
housing  programs  and  urban  revenue 
sharing  to  stop  decay  of  our  cities, 

"In  1969.  there  were  156,000  sub- 
sidized housing  starts  for  low  and 
moderate  income  families.  In  1973, 
under  President  Nixon,  that  number 
has  sky-rocketed  to  566,000.  Funds  to 
administer  fair  housing  programs  will 
increase  in  1973  by  20  percent  to  $10.9 
million.  The  President  has  proposed  a 
revoluntionary  program  of  revenue 
iharing  which  will  place  over  $2  billion 
m  the  hands  of  local  officials  for  solving 
urban  problems "

Hitchhiking  continues 
despite  real  dangers 

Thumbs  out  and  squinting  into  the  sun  are  the 
hitchhikers  speckling  our  streets  and  highways  today. 
Hitchhiking  has  become  a  fashionable  way  to  get 
around  for  many        young  people. 

During  the  summer,  flocks  of  back  packing 
travelers  venture  out  to  the  roadside,  many  forgetting 
or  disregarding  the  fact  that  hitchhiking  can  be 
hazardous. 

Hitchhiking  can  be  adventurous  and  is  cheap  but 
does  not  go  without  risk.  When  you  are  picked  up  by 
some  one,  you  can  only  go  as  far  as  the  driver  is  going 
and  possibly  end  up  stranded  on  a  desolate  road  in 
pouring  rain  or  bitter  cold. 

States  uphold  laws 

Several  states  have  laws  and  towns  with  ordnances 
that  forbid  standing  in  the  roadway  to  solicit  a  ride  thus 
you  gather  an  unexpected  fine. 

There's  also  the  possibility  of  getting  into  an  ac- 
cident caused  by  your  driver.  Hitchhikers  take  from 
people  without  giving  anything  in  return.  It's  actually 
taking  charity  from  them  or  livingoff  of  them. 

Some  ecology-minded  hitchhikers  argue  that  it  is 
healthier  for  the  enviornment  explaining  that  less  cars 
means  less  pollution. 

Peers  pressure  young 

A  main  reason  why  young  people  are  hitchhiking 
more  today  is  peer  group  pressure.  Hitchhiking  is  the 
"in"  thing  to  do,  it's  a  sign  of  independence,  a  sign  that 
you've  seen  many  places,  even  had  some  close  calls  or 
bad  experiences  along  the  way. 

There  is  a  recent  flood  of  books  and  guides  that 
reveal  the  best  places  to  stand  where  you'll  be  noticed 
and  what  expression  to  wear  for  the  drivers  to  pity  you. 
This  kind  of  advice  just  makes  it  more  widespread  and 
easier  to  bum  rides. 

It  makes  more  sense  to  use  busses  or  some  other 
means  of  transportation  than  risk  your  life,  live  on  the 
road,  and  never  know  where  there  might  be  an 
unexpected  dead  end! 


WMEE  jocks 

Announcers  speak 


B.v  BarbNowak 

Disc  jockey  Mark  Rivers  and 
news  director  Phil  Lengyel 
recently  met  with  Miss  Highfill's 
Mass  Media  class  on  the  subject 
of  radio  production  and  com- 
munications. Both  were  from  the 
radio  station  WMEE, 

Generally  talking  about  the 
WMEE  radio  station  as  a  whole, 
Mr.  Rivers  explained  how  the 
station  is  run,  "We  use  no  scripts 
of  any  kind,  but  references  cards 
are  kept  in  case  they  are 
needed." 

Referring  to  the  WMEE  hit- 
line,  Mr  Rivers  went  on  to  say 
that  over  1,000  calls  are  taken  a 
day  "An  average  of  50  calls  are 
received  an  hour,  but  only  about 
16  records  are  played.  It's  mostly 
for  the  teenies  anyway  " 
DJ's  interest,  accidental 

Mr.  Rivers  became  interested 
in  radio  by  accident.  WMEE  is  a 
fairly  high  paid  station.  "I  earn 
about  $200  a  week."  he  said. 
Higher  ratings  received  by 
WMEE  means  more  money 
earned.  "The  hours  I  put  in  a  day 
goes  in  streaks.  Sometimes  I 
work  for  only  4  hours  while  other 
days,  I  may  work  for  12,"  Mr. 
Rivers  said. 

The  songs  heard  on  WMEE  are 
almost  all  records  "We  use  only 
a  few  taped  songs  The  records 
selected  for  the  stat  ion  are 
determined  by  their  national 
sales,"  explained  Mr.  Rivers. 
The  records  used  on  radio  are 
picked  by  the  disc  jockeys.  This  is 
not  always  done  at  other  radio 
stations,  because  the  songs  are 
already  pre-programmed. 

"The  music  played  must  be 
what  the  bulk  of  the  people  want 
to  hear,"  explained  Mr,  Rivers. 
Sheets  with  all  of  the  current 
records  are  used  as  references. 
Some  songs  from  albums  are 
used  but  most  of  the  records 
played  are  only  45's  or  edited  45's 
from  album  cuts. 

Mr.  River's  advice  on 
becoming  a  disc  jockey  is,  "Don't 
unless  your're  really  interested. 
If  you  are,  find  a  small  poorly  run 
station  first  and  learn  how  to  run 
equipment.  Gain  as  much  ex- 
perience as  possible  too."  Some 
disc  jockeys  at  WMEE  have  had 


up  to  3  years  experience. 
News  director  receives  facts 

Phil  Lengyel,  news  director  for 
WMEE  receives  news  from 
various  sources,  "Police 
monitors  and  other  local  staffs 
are  used  in  gathering  news,"  said 
Mr.  Lengyel-  The  information 
reported  to  the  public  must  be 
newsworthy  and  interesting. 
"This  city  deserves  good  factual 
news  the  people  will  listen  to." 

Numerous  amounts  of  money 
earned  by  the  newsmen  varies, 
"Some  only  receive  SlOO  a  week, 
while  others  might  make  S180  to 
$300  a  week,"  he  related.  "It 
really  depends  on  your  working 
hours."  Mr.  Lengyel  has  his  own 
salary 
Station  has  bright  future. 

Although  Mr.  Lengyel  had  an 
offer  from  the  radio  station  CFL 
in  Chicago,  he  feels  he  will  stay  at 


Senior  participates  in  competition 


Into  Judo?  Senior  Eric  Spears 
is  and  has  been  since  the  eighth 
grade  Eric  is  into  Judo  as  a  sport 
rather  than  self  defense  as  he 
concentrates  on  Judo  which  is 
mainly  self  defense. 

Eric  started  his  training  in 
Karate  and  Judo  at  the  YMCA. 
Shoulder  separations,  broken 
fingers  and  toes,  and  various 
other  injuries  caused  Eric  to  stop 
training  for  a  year.  Interested 
mainly  in  Judo,  his  rank  is 
"Gokyu,"  permitting  him  to  wear 
the  yellow  belt  of  the  sport  He  is 
presently  working  toward  a 
promotion, 

"Respect  to  judges,  in- 
structors, and  opponents  is 
stressed  heavily,"  says  Eric. 
"Strict  discipline  is  also 
necessary  to  be  able  to  really  get 
into  Judo." 

Comeptition  includes  girls 

Erie  recently  participated  in 
competition  in  Hamilton,  Ohio, 
"Competition  includes  girls 
competition,  junior  compeitition, 
and  senior   competition   with 


weight  and  rank  classes  in  all  of 
them  "  Along  with  fighting 
compe  titon,  the  girls  compete  in 
"Kata"  in  which  they  are  judged 
on  style  and  form"  Inter-state 
competition  including  Chicago, 
Michigan,  and  Ohio  will  be  held 
October  29,  at  the  Fort  Wayne 
School  of  Judo.  It  is  open  to 
spectators  with  a  smaJl  ad- 
mission fee." 

"One  full  point  is  gained  by 
achieving  one  complete  throw, 
two  half  throws,  holding  the 
opponent  on  the  mat  in  complete 


control  for  45  seconds,  or  one  half 
throw  holding  the  opponent  on  the 
mat  for  25  seconds." 

Last  year,  Eric  assisted  senior 
Jim  Webb  in  opening  and  in- 
structing a  club  at  Elmhurst  for 
boys  and  girls.  Unlike  Jim  and 
his  instructor  now,  Larry,  Eric  is 
unable  to  carry  on  a  class  by 
himself  because  he  isn't  qualified 
or  licensed  to  give  ranks.  He  does 
plan  to  carry  on  his  training 
through  college  and  someday 
hopes  to  teach  Judo

Ratings  earned  by  the  area 
radio  stations  are  taken  by  in- 
dependent surveys  and 
metropolitan  surveys.  "Games 
and  contest  are  used  as  gimmicks 
lo  help  bring  in  more  listeners, 
which  means  more  money." 
explained  Mr    Rivers. 

He  continued  to  say  more

that  the  rating  surveys  are  taken. 
The  rating  systems  are  broken

Vikings  provide 
tough  challenge 


After  soundly  defeating  South 
Side  last  weekend  Ihe  Trojans 
will  travel  to  Huntington  tonight 
to  play  the  tough  Huntinglon 
Vikings,  With  only  two  loses  to 
South  Bend  Saint  Joseph  and 
Bishop  Luers  the  Trojans  will  be 
trying  lor  their  fifth  win  of  the 
season. 

The  Vikings  employ  the 
wishbone-T  in  the  offensive 
backfield  with  Sam  Pegan 
starting  at  the  fullback  position, 
Pegan  scored  three  touchdowns 
in  Huntington's  last  game  against 
Blackford,  Other  standouts  on  the 
Vikings  offensive  unit  are  left 
halfback  Marty  Stephen  and  light 
end  Rav  Bigel'ow. 

Defensively  Ihe  Vikings  use  a  4- 
3-4,  pro-Style  formation.  If  this 
particular  defense  is  to  be  suc- 
cessful it  is  essential  that  the 
front  four  pressure  the  quar- 
terback with  a  good  pass  rush. 
With  so  few  linemen  this  defense 
relies  upon  the  linebackers  and 


Ihe  cornerbacks  lo  make  most  of 
Ihe  tackles-  Doing  a  fine  job  for 
the  Vikings  defensively  are 
tackle  Pat  Hall,  end  Ray  Bigelow 
and  outside  linebacker  Bill 
Huffman. 

Coached  by  Mr.  Jerry  Young. 
Huntington  is  a  member  of  the 
Central  Indiana  Conference,  Mr. 
Young  has  60  men  on  the  Viking 
squad  with  13  returning  let- 
termen  from  last  year's  learn 
which  had  a  8-2  record.  Hunting- 
ton won  last  year's  game  10-8  on  a 
muddy  field,  with  the  game  being 
a  defensive  battle. 

The  Vikings  are  presently  5-2 
having  been  defeated  by  An- 
derson 12-7  and  Marion  31-21, 
included  in  their  victories  is  a  24-0 
win  over  Snider, 

"Elmhurst  will  present  a  big 
problem  as  they  have  fine  per- 
sonal and  a  varied  attack.  They 
are  good  hitters  and  will  be  the 
best  team  we  have  played  this 
season,"  stated  Mr.  Young. 


Runners  place  last  in 
two  cross-country  meets 


Look  out 

Seniors  Paul  Waters  (30)  and  Dave  Butler  (11)  lead  the  way  for  senior  Nate 
Brown  (81)  on  an  end  sweep  last  Friday  in  their  game  against  South  Side  at 
Wayne  Stadium.  The  football  team  won  the  game  by  a  score  of  32-13  making  their 
record  four  wins  and  two  losses.  Tonight  the  team  travels  to  Huntington. 


Senior  Chris  Johnson  with  a 
strong  finish  was  first  in  a  cross- 
country meet  last  Thursday  al 
Swinney  Park,  Chris'  time  of 
12:55 set  a  new  course  record,  he 
broke  the  old  one  by  ten  seconds. 


Trojans  tromp  South  Side 
as  offensive  game  improves 


With  the  offense  and 
defense  clicking  like  fiever 
before  this  season  the 
Trojans  romped  over  rival 
South  Side  32-13  last 
Friday  night  at  Wayne 
stadium.  The  offense  piled 
up  over  340  total  yards  for 
its  best  showing  while  the 
defense  held  the  Archers 
to  86-yards  on  the  ground 
and  64-yards  in  the  air. 


Senior  defensive  halfback  Nate 
Brown  recovered  a  South  Side 
fumble  on  the  second  play  of  the 
game  to  set  up  the  Trojans  first 
score.  Senior  halfback  John 
Adams  circled  into  the  right  flat, 
gathered  in  the  swing  pass  from 
senior  quarterback  Dave  Butler, 
reversed  his  field,  picked  up  a 
fine  block  from  senior  tackle 
Murray  Weber  and  went  in  for 
the  score  standing  up  Senior 
Tom  Kennerk  kicked  the  extra- 
point  to  make  the  score  7-0  with 
only  two  minutes  gone   in  the 


The  Trojans  tallied  again  in  the 
first  quarter  when  Butler  rolled 
out  to  pass  and  finding  his 
receivers  covered  he  tucked  the 
ball  in  and  went  16-yards  to  the 
left  corner  of  the  endzone  for  the 
touchdown. 

The  Archers  took  the  ensuing 
kick-off  and  went  46-yards  in

Geesaman  going  10-yards  for  the 
score.  William  Russel  kicked  the

Games  seen  differently 
by  the  ^irls  at  Elmhurst 


Football  games  offer  much 
more  to  the  novice  fan  than  most 
of  us  think-  An  aware  observer 
will  notice  many  sideline  ac- 
tivities that  the  avid  sports  fan 
doesn't  see. 

The  main  feature  of  the  game  is 
the  teams  However,  there  are  as 
many  ununiformed  people  on  the 
benches  as  there  are  on  the  field. 
Photographers  are  constantly 
shooting  people.  Standing  along 
the  sidelines  can  prove 
dangerous  when  you're  looking 
through  a  camera.  Who  knows 
what  is  going  to  run  into  you  — 
maybe  a  Redskin,  a  Knight,  an 
Archer  or  even  a  Trojan ! 

The  poor  water  boy's  job  is 
never  done.  He's  constantly 
running  up  and  down  the  field  to 
quench  some  big,  muddy  guy's 
thirst.  And  when  he's  not  tending 
his  water  machine  there's  a 
continuing  trail  to  it.  Somebody  is 
always  thirsty! 
Boy  misses  catch 

Have  you  ever  watched  the 
little  boy  who  is  in  charge  of 
keeping  a  dry  football  available? 
Whenever  the  ball  is  thrown  lo 
him  he  can  never  catch  it. 
Someone  always  throws  it  over 
tiis  head  or  a  mile  away  from 
him   Poor  kid! 

Then  of  course,  there  are  the 
coaches.  They  get  their  exercise 
at  the  games.  Jumping  up  and 
down,  hitting  the  air  and  running 
up  and  down  the  sidelines  in  one 
nighl  requires  at  least  a  week's 
rest  until  the  next  game!  They're 


constant  unheard  shouting  might 
be  pretty  colorful  if  we  coLdd  hear 
it. 

Crowds  prove  to  be  interesting 
too.  A  few  scattered  blankets 
covering  cozy  couples  can  always 
be  spotted.  Kids  like  to  make 
paper  airplanes  out  of  the  rosters 
and  see  how  many  times  they  can 
hit  a  cheerleader.  Sometimes  it 
gets  pretty  messy  walking  under 
the  stands  All  kinds  of  things  are 
thrown  at  innocent  bystanders  — 
candy,  popcorn,  pop,  etc. 
Parents  watch  son 

Parents  love  to  come  to  the 
games  to  see  their  son's  per- 
formance. You  always  know 
who's  dad  is  sitting  behind  you. 
He  sees  a  one  man  team  out 
there ! 

Halftime  always  brings  ex- 
citing events  to  everyone.  The 
concession  stand  will  be  mobbed 
by  kids  with  the  munchies,  the 


field  has  musical  entertainment 
presented  by  the  home  team's 
band  and  the  team  always  puts  on 
a  show  when  they  do  their  warm 
up  exercises.  They  must  like  to 
suffer.  Throwing  themselves  on 
the  ground  can't  he  fim. 

Football  games  arent  only  for 
the  tootball  fan.  It  offers  a 
variety  of  games  played  by  a 
variety  of  people.

Kennerk  thrilled  the  fans  as  he 
neatly  kicked  a  45-yard  field  goal 
which  cleared  the  crossbar  with 
inches  to  spare  The  three  pointer 
made  the  score  17-7.  The  Trojans 
upped  their  total  to  25  before 
halftime  when  Butler  went  10- 
yards  around  left  end  for  the 
score.  Butler  than  caught  an 
Adams  pass  for  the  two  point 
conversion. 

Late  in  the  third  period  Butler 
threw  to  senior  end  Don  Miller  for 
29-yards  and  a  touchdown. 
Kennerk  kicked  the  extra-point 
and  the  score  was  32-7.  Trojans 
favor. 

Geesaman  scored  from  5-yards 
out  to  cap  a  60-yard  drive  by  the 
Archers  in  the  final  quarter.  The 
extra-point  was  blocked  by  junior 
Jack  Wolfe, 

"I  was  extremely  pleased 
about  the  combined  effort  of  the 
offense  and  defense  and  feel  that 
this  game  will  give  us  confidence 
for  the  future,"  stated  head  coach 
Warren  Hoover.

exchange  candidates 


It's  for  you! 


Junior  Alan  Rutledge  and  senior  Barb  Young  gesture  during  a 
performance  of  the  school  play.  Cactus  Flower.  The  play  opened 
last  Friday  and  Saturday  nights  and  will  be  presented  again 
tonight  and  tomorrow  night.  Tickets  at  the  door  are  $1.50  and 
presale  are  $1.00. 


Juniors  Cathy  White  and  John 
Knettie  were  announced  last  Friday  as 
the  Elmhurst  American  Field  Service 
candidates  for  international  living. 

"They  asked  anybody  to  sign  up.  I 
think  there  were  about  10-12  people.  We 
all  had  separate  personal  interviews  by 
mostly  adults  and  some  students.  Then 
they  chose  five  finalists,"  Cathy  stated. 
"There  was  one  more  interview  after 
that  before  they  chose  us.  They  told  us 
that  we  weren't  chosen  by  superficial 
qualities  but  how  we  respond  to 
situations  and  other  people,"  she  ad- 
ded. 
Teacher  relates  information 

Cathy  said  she  was  thinking  about 
being  a  foreign  exchange  student  at  the 
beginning  of  the  year  after  she  read 
about  Claudia  Weiss,  the  exchange 
student  from  Germany.  "I  talked  to 
Mrs.  Schram  about  it  and  she  said  there 
would  be  a  program  starting  at 
Elmhurst  and  she  would  let  me  know 
about  it,"  she  continued. 

There  are  two  programs  the  students 
may  enter  They  consist  of  a  summer 
program  for  three  to  four  months  and  a 
school  program  for  11  to  12  months 
which  is  more  extensive. 

Cathy  slated.  "1  signed  up  for  both 
but  "  I'd  rather  go  for  the  school 
program.  I  really  don't  care  which 
country  1  go  to  but  I'd  like  to  go  to  one 
where  the  language  is  French," 


Band  acquires  machine

Band  and  orchestra  departments 
recently  purchased  a  moog  synthesizer 
from  the  Moog  Music  Incorporation 
iCLiirdiiig  to  orchestra  director,  Mr. 
RoiuTt  Morse. 

Mr,  Morse  commented,  "It's  an 
e!*-'  Ironic  devise  similiar  to  an  elec- 
Ironic  organ,  but  with  infinite  selections 
ufiiine  and  color  possibilities  It  makes 
It  possible  to  create  not  simply  musical 
nolis  but  other  musical  sounds  as  well, 
Sonii-  call  it  music,  some  call  it  noise!" 
Mjnnual  describes  moog 

The  synthesizer  electronically 
produces  sounds  by  the  simple  ad- 
juslments  of  knobs  and  switches  Tone 
^nd  quality  are  limited  only  by  the 
imagination  of  the  operator.  "Meeting 
ihp  Moog"  manuals  describing 
ifc-L-hniques  in  using  and  creating  sounds 
"ri  the  synthesizer  are  available 
through  Mr.  Morse  in  the  bandroom. 

Anyone  with  a  creative  mind  wishing 
to  experiment  with  the  moog  may  do  so 
with  guidance  from  Mr.  Morse  and  the 
manuals  provided.  Knowledge  of  the 
tape  recorder  is  suggested  helpful 

The  following  is  a  portion  of  the  in- 
i^'ruction  manual  giving  the  procedure 
'or  a  change  of  sound.  This  is  only  a 
^malt  sample  of  the  various  abilities  the 
^ynthesuer  performs:  Set  the  syn- 
thesizer controls  as  pictured  in  the  first 
"liagram  provided  in  the  manual.  Turn 
the  A  Oscillator  switch  full  counter 
i^l'iLkwise  until  it  clicks  off.  Move  the 
^Tliculator  bypass  switch  full  left.  Turn 


lixer  A-B  switch  full  on.  Then 
move  the  keyboard  switch  in  the 
TRIGGER  IMPUT  section  to  full  up. 
Set  the  MODE  switch  full  left 

These  procedures  will  give  the  moog 
the  affect  of  an  electric  organ.  By 
moving  the  MODE  switch  to  the  full 
right  and  the  DECAY  knob  to  the 
number  one  position,  the  notes  do  nnt 


release  instantly,  but  gradually  fade 
away.  When  the  DECAY  know  is  set  at  0 
and  the  ATTACK  knob  set  on  number 
one.  the  notes  will  fade  in  and  stop 
abruptly. 

"I  feel  the  synthesizer  was  a  very 
worthwhile  purchase."  stated  Mr. 
Morse,  "I  believe  there's  a  great  future 
in  electronic  music." 


Cathy  and  John  are  required  to  fill 
out  numerous  forms  to  send  to  the  New 
York  AFS  office  These  include  ap- 
plications,  health  forms  and 
registration.  They  must  also  have 
forms  filled  out  by  their  teachers, 
parents  and  members  of  their  peer 
group. 
AFS  judges  qualities 

"Our  school  and  others  in  the  city 
send  in  the  names.  I  guess  we  are  not  in 
competition  with  anyone  else,  they  just 
read  your  forms  and  chose  you  on  your 
own  qualities  The  people  iii  New  York 
are  more  concerned  with  finding  a 
family  compatible  with  you  than  a 
country  you  wish  to  go  to,"  John  em- 
phasized.

anything  in  the  varsity,"  Mr.  Storey

Voters  to  decide  the 
marijuana  question 

California  voters  will  decide  this  November  if  ttie 
use  of  mariiuana  should  continue  to  be  a  crime. 
California  Marijuana  Initiative  members  have 
produced  the  petition  necessary  to  include  the 
marijuana  question  on  the  November  ballot. 

According  to  the  National  Observer,  Sept.  30,  1972, 
Dr  Hardin  Jones,  a  University  of  California  Medical 
Physicist  and  Physiologist  is  convinced  marijuana 
smoking  leads  to  stronger  drugs  such  as  LSD  and 
heroin.  He  also  insists  legalization  of  the  weed  would 
lead  to  increased  usage. 

Dr.  Joel  Fort,  a  respected  health  authority,  believes 
the  present  laws  regarding  marijuana  usage  is  makmg 
criminals  out  of  many  youths.  He  said,  "We  must 
balance  the  unknown  risk  of  the  drug  marijuana 
against  the  known  dangers  of  prison,  which  is  a 
graduate  course  in  crime  and  exposure  to  (pressures  to 
engage  in)  homosexuality." 

Lifemagazine,  Nov.28,  1971,  states,  "Marijuana  is 
by  far  the  least  toxic  (of  drugs.)  It  has  a  mildly 
stimulating  effect  on  the  noradrenaline  and  serotonin 
pathways  in  the  brain.  Prior  to  1937  it  was  often 
prescribed  by  physicians  for  slight  cases  of  depression, 
with  generally  good  results  because  it  induces  a  mild 

euphoria."  .     , 

I  ne  Amendment  to  the  Constitution,  which  will  be 
voted  upon  in  California,  reads,  "Marijuana 
Initiative.  Removes  state  penalties  for  personal  use. 
Proposes  a  statue  which  would  provide  that  no  person 
eighteen  years  or  older  shall  be  punished  criminally  or 
denied  any  right  or  privilege  because  of  his  planting, 
cultivating,  harvesting,  drying,  processing,  otherwise 
preparing,  transporting,  possessing  or  using 
marijuana.  Does  not  repeal  existing,  or  limit  future, 
legislation  prohibiting  persons  under  the  influence  of 
marijuana  from  engaging  in  conduct  that  endangers 
others.  Financial  impact:  none." 

With  the  present  information,  how  would  you  vote?

by  Bill  Watson  ^J^,^ 

As  a  means  of  paying  class    ^^^o  ; 


assessed  a  necessary  amount  of 
money. 

Many  students,  out  of  ignorance, 
object  to  paying  dues  for  something 


CW&SS  DUES 


IS  money   has  always  gone  t 


meet  the  expenses  of  each  class.  The 
largest  of  these  enpendilures  is  class 
yearbook  pictures.  In  order  to  print  a 
class's  section.  SI  50  must  be  paid  by 
the  class.  Mrs.  Marlene  Shultz,  pub- 
lication's advisor  enplained.  "If 
classes  and  clubs  cannot  meet  this 
amount,  we'll  have  to  raise  the 
yearbook  price  from  S6,00  to  S8.00. 
Students  are  actually  paying  a  smaller 
amount,  than  required  to  fully  cower 
the  price  of  a  class  section."  Other 
high  schools  have  already  upped  the 
price  to  meet  this  problem. 
Dues  pay  cost 

Another  expense  paid  through 
class  dues  is  flowers.  When  a  student 
or  a  family  member  dies  the  school 
sends  flowers.  An  alternative  to  this 
being  discussed  by  class  sponsors  is  to 
"pass  the  hat.  "  This  would  also  not 
guarantee  meeting  expenses. 

In  the  sopfiomore  class,  students 
annually  attempt  having  a  class 
dance.  Unfortunately,  because  an 
inadequate  amount  of  money  was 
collected  last  year,  the  group  hired  to 
perform  drew  only  1 2  people  in 
ticket  sales.  With  an  appropriate 
amount  ot  money  to  work  with, 
perhaps  the  sophomores  could  suc- 
cessfully hold  a  dance 

If  class  activities  and  functions 
are  to  continue,  students  must  be 
willing  to  support  them.  Any 
questions  involving  class  dues  can  be 
referred  to  class  sponsors  (Mtss  Ural 
Edwards,  seniors;  Mr  Robert  Pass- 
water,  juniors:  sophomores,  Miss 
Aloyse  Monz.)

Bob  Frank 

The  father  of  a  French 
teenager  desires  to  exchange  his 
son  for  an  English  youth  for 
disciplinary  reasons.  The  ex- 
change takes  place  with  a  slight 
mix  up.  The  French  youth, 
Philip,  sends  a  friend  in  his  place 
so  he  can  travel  off  the  French 
coast  with  other  friends. 
Girl  creates  chaos 

Representing  an  English 
swinger,  the  girl  creates  a 
problem  for  her  temporary 
French  father.  She  cons  her 
young  French  brother  to  visit 
places  which  conflict  with  his 
father's  moralistic  beliefs. 

She  causes  disruptions  in  the 
classroom  where  her  French 
father  was  the  fieurehead  of 
authority   His  feeble  attempts  to 


(lisciplme  the  girl  leads  only  to 
additional  chaos. 

After  an  unexpected  meeting  of 
the  Enghsh  girl  and  the  sup- 
posedly French  exchange 
student,  Phihp,  the  couple  fall  in 
love. 
Fathers  become  friends 

Succeeding  a  ridiculous  chase 
for  the  couple,  the  fathers  end  up 
in  a  hquor  company.  Following  a 
few  too  many  drinks,  the  men 
form  a  likeable  friendship. 

The  families  finally  unite 
through  the  marriage  of  the  two 
exchange  students. 

Expectations  of  the  audience 
are  not  met,  as  the  movie  was 
advertised  as  a  comedy.  Sick 
humor,  however,  was  installed 
throughout  the  entire  show. 


Candidate:  George  McGovern 


Editor's  note:  This  is  (he  last  in  the 
series  of  campaign  stories  to  help 
ramiliarize  some  of  the  local,  state  and 
national  candidates  to  the  voting 
populous  of  Elmhurst, 

Senator  George  McGovern. 
Democratic  candidate  for  President  of 
the  United  Stales,  is  gaining  ground  on 
Richard  Nixon  after  a  somewhat  shaky 
start.  In  the  past  two  monttis  and  the 
polls  has  increased  considerably. 

The  cmef  area  of  attack  by  Senator 
McGovern  on  the  President  has  been 
the  Vietnam  conflict,  'in  September  of 
1965,  Senator  McGovern  warned  that 
our  involvement  in  Indochina  would 
lead  to  "military  defeat  and  moral 
debacle!'"  Recently  he  led 
Congressional  attempts  'o  shut  off 
lunding  for  the  war  tnrough  the 
McGovern-Hatfield  Amendments  to 
End  the  War." 

McGovern  nas  stated  that  if  elected 
he  will:  —  "stop  the  bombing  of  In- 
dochini  on  Inauguration  Day  and 
withdrew  all  American  troops  from 
Vietnani  within  90  days. 

—  em.  all  military  assistance  to  the 
Thieu  r  ■gime,  (South  Vietnam)  which 


McGovern  believes  is  unrepresentative 
and  illegitimate.  Aid  would  be  ter- 
minated within  90  days, 

—  close  bases  in  Thailand. 

—  insist  that  all  prisoners  be  released 
immediately  after  the  cessation  of  the 
hostilities," 

Another  question  of  the  72  campaign 
is  the  high  cost  of  property  tax  and  its 
relation  to  the  proportion  of  schools 
expeditures, 

"He  wants  to  shift  some  school  ex- 
penditures to  the  federal  level  so  that 
state  and  local  governments  can  cut 
unreasonable  property  tax  rates  now 
being  paid  bv  millions  of  land  owners." 
McGovern  stated  in  October  1969. 
"Everywhere  the  praises  of  education 
are  sung.  Everywhere,  that  is,  except 
the  dry  pages  of  the  budget  of  the 
United  States  government.  Thoses 
pages  tell  a  very  different  story.  They 
tell  of  a  nation  whose  commitment  to 
education,  in  terms  of  percentage  of 
national  wealth,  is  smaller  than  any 
other  major  country  in  the  world.  They 
tell  of  a  government  asking  S400  for 
military  and  S12  for  elementary  and 
secondary  education  from  each 
citizen." 


On  the  issue  of  drugs  in  America  he 
wants  to  spend  "three  months  worth  of 
Indochina  bombing"  which  amounts  to 
$1,5  billion  to  help  fight  our  nation's 
drug  problem.  He  feels  drugs  are 
responsible  for  a  great  portion  of 
America's  crimes  He  also  feels  his 
program  "would  end  the  waste  of 
countless  numbers  of  lives  and  millions 
ofdoUars  in  the  national  treasury  lost  to 
organized  crime  through  drugs." 

"Senator  McGovern  has  long  been  a 
leading  advocate  of  conservation  and 
enviornmental  protection."  He  has 
supported  most  if  not  all  enviornmental 
protection    laws. 

Some  of  McGovem's  proposals  for 
conservation  include  a  comprehensive 
development  for  national  resources 
including  a  White  House  Council  of 
National  Resource  Advisors  and  a  new 
land  policy. 

His  plans  also  include  a  woiid  en- 
vironmental institute  to  deal  with  the 
threal  (o  our  enviomment  on  a  world 
wide  scale.  He  proposed  a  new  super 
agency  patlernwl  after  NASA,  to  deal 
with  pollution.  The  proposed  first  year 
budget  for  this  agency  is  three  billion 
dollars

"Generation  after" sees 
aspects  of  real  world 


The  "generalion  after"  is  now  growing  up  and  they  are  the  kids 
ranging  from  six  to  twelve  years  in  age.  who  have  to  for  the  first 
time  be  torn  away  from  the  security  of  their  home.  They  must  learn 
to  get  along  with  all  kinds  of  new  people  and  unfamiliar  classmates 
and  teachers. 

A  child's  learning  is  best  centered  upon  his  own  experience.  It  is 
a  personal  matter  and  it  varies  from  child  to  child.  It  may  take  place 
m  a  variety  of  environments  some  in  school  and  some  out,  and  is  put 
to  use  only  when  the  child  is  taken  seriously.  Children  should  be 
encouraged  to  ask  their  own  questions  rather  than  waiting  to  find 
what  they  shouldn't  be  asking. 
Early  years  important 

I  hey  learn  more  when  the  distinction  between  play  and  work  is 
not  so  sharp.  The  early  years  of  school  are  probably  the  most 
important  of  a  person's  entire  education. 

The  attitudes  established  here  will  influence  the  learning  process 
greatly,  with  success  or  failure  generally  relating  closely  to  success  or 
failure  later  on. 

Kids  are  open  to  all  information  about  every  social  ill  from  sex 
to  drugs  to  pollution.  Now  they  join  peace  marches,  recycle  trash, 
argue  womens  liberation,  and  even  seek  their  life  time  careers  all 
before  they  reach  their  teens.

Numerous  errors  and  many 
costlv  penalities  nagged  the 
Trojans  as  they  lost  their  third 
game  in  seven  starts  to  the 
Huntington  Vikings  52-8.  The 
Trojans  had  11  penalities  for  110 
yards,  over  one  half  as  many 
yards  as  they  gained  in  total 
offense.  Elmhurst  lost  the  ball  on 
fumbles  three  times  and  was 
intercepted  twice,  combined  with 
the  penalities  these  errors 
crippled  the  Trojan's  efforts  to 
sustain  a  drive. 

Elmhurst  won  the  toss  and 
elected  to  receive  the  opening 
kick-off,  after  an  excellent  return 
the  Trojans  fumbled  on  their  43- 
yard  line  and  the  Vikings  took 
over  from  there.  Huntington 
marched  to  the  Elmhurst  2-yard 
line  where  the  Trojan  defense 
drove  them  back  and  the  Vikings 
had  to  settle  for  a  23-yard  field 
goal. 

The  ensuing  kick-off  got  away 
from  the  Trojans  and  this  time 
the  Vikings  recovered  on  the 
Trojan  13-yard  line.  Huntington's 


Pitching  impressive 

A's  astonish  Reds  in  series 


To  the  surprise  of  most 
baseball  fans  and  the  so 
called  experts,  the 
Oa  k  land  At  hieti  cs 
defeated  the  Cincinnati 
Reds  3-2  in  the  World 
Series.  Both  teams  got  to 
the  series  by  defeating 
their  playoff  opponents  in 
five  games.  The  A's  won 
over  the  Detroit  Tigers 
and  the  Reds  won  over  last 
year's  world  champions, 
the  Pittsburgh  Pirates. 

Losing  Reggie  Jackson,  who  hit 
7S  home  runs  during  the  season 
and  acted  as  a  kind  of  spiritual 
leader  of  the  As,  seemed  to 
diminish  any  hopes  of  their 
winning  the  series.  However,  the 
A's  playing  without  their  home 
run  hitter,  away  from  home  and 
on  an  unfamiliar  artificial  sur- 
face, whipped  the  Reds  3-2  and  2-1 
in  the  first  two  games. 
Reds  snap  jinx 

The  Reds  were  able  to  win  two 
out  of  the  three  games  at  Oakland 
and  returned  home  down  three 
games  to  two.  The  Reds  then 
snapped  the  Riverfront  Stadium 
"jinx,"  winning  big  after  having 
lost  four  consecutive  World 
Series  contests  at  their  two  and  a 
half  year  old  field 

The  3-2  final  game  was  an 
appropriate  climax  to  the  seven 
game  series  as  six  of  the  seven 
games  were  won  by  only  one  run. 

The  Reds  were  undone  by  the 
A's  formidable  pitching  -  Ken 
Holtzman,  Rollie  Fingers,  Vida 
Blue.  Jim  (Catfish  i  Hunter,  and 
Jim  I  Blue  Moon )  Odem  for

catch  by  Joe  Rudi  in  left  field  that 
ranks  with  the  best  in  series 
history.  Finally  they  were  undone 
bv  a  'National  League  weapon, 
ttie  home  run,  as  A's  catcher 
Gene  Tenace  tied  a  World  Series 
record  by  hitting  four  long  balls. 
Pitching  strategy  simple 

As  the  series  got  under  way.  the 
A's  pitching  strategy  was  simple : 
to  force  the  Reds  out  of  their 
game  That  game  was  to  get  one 
or  all  of  the  first  three  hitters  on 
base  so  that  Johnny  Bench  could 
drive  them  home,  Pete  Rose,  Joe 
Morgan,  and  Bobby  Tolan  scored 
a  total  of  317  runs  during  the 
year.  Bench,  hitting  behind  them, 
drove  in  his  major  league-leading 
125  runS- 

Perhaps  over  confidence  was 
the  fatal  thing  that  did  the  Reds 
in-  So  the  thinking  went  when  the 
A's  bone  weary  from  their 
harrowing  playoff  series  with  the 
tenacious  Detroit  Tigers,  trooped 
into  Cincinnati.  The  Athletics 
were  good  enough  players,  sure, 
but  they  were  —  excuse  the 
phrase  —  American  Leaguers. 
"If  I  said  the  American  League 
was  as  good  as  the  National 
Leagi'e,"  said  the  Reds'  out- 
spoken manager,  Sparky  An-

derson,  "I'd  be  lying.  Yes, 
Oakland  could  come  over  and 
play  in  our  league  and  maybe 
Boston  But  they're  the  oniy 
ones." 

Even  the  Athletics  were  in- 
clined to  concede  the  argument. 
Their  captain,  Sal  Bando,  agreed 
that  National  League  players 
were  more  aggressive,  both  at 
bat  and  on  the  bases.  "Maybe," 
he  said,  puzzling  it  out,  "we're 
too  buddy -buddy  in  our  league." 
Slugger  Reggie  Jackson  went 
further  "The  National  League," 
he  said,  "has  more  depth,  better 
personnel  overall,  and  more  good 
young  black  players," 
Oakland  solid  team 

The  As  and  the  Reds  were 
studies  in  contrast.  Oakland 
Manager  Dick  Williams 
sometimes  works  in  mysterious 
ways,  but  runs  a  club  solid  in 
fundamentals  With  their  Wed- 
nesday night  bowling  uniforms, 
flowing  locks  of  hair,  and 
bristling  mustaches,  the  A's  only 
look  odd,  They  are  really  an 
orthodox  team. 

The  Reds  are  neatly  barbered 
and  clean-shaven  and  their 
uniforms  are  so  timelesslv

Dave  Jenks  scored  on  the  first 
play  and  Mike  Schacht  kicked  the

In  the  second  quarter  the 
Vikings  drove  40-yards  for  a 
score  with  halfback  Marty 
Stephan  going  the  last  six  yards. 
The  next  time  Huntington  got  the 
ball  they  went  7l-yards  in  nine

only  alx^i't  42  per  cent  of  the  25  million,

Politics,  monopolized  by  the 
maic  population,  seems  to  be 
opening  its  doors  to  women  of  this 
cniintry.  Though  only  three 
uniiien  are  running  on  the  local 
,i[i;  vtdte  ticket,  advancements 
hd\<'  been  made  since  woman 
■ufiijge  in  the  2l)'s. 

I  tite  Woman's  Home  Journal 
pui'lished  an  article  entitled 
Finding  Time  for  Politics"  in 
ihf  Nov.  1942  issue.  The  story 
offers  several  suggestions 
lepdrding  politics  and  the 
jvtrage  woman.  It  claims 
wonien  must  take  action  in  the 
goi-ernment  by  "keeping  wised 
up  on  events,  going  to  caucuses 
and  choosing  the  right  convention 
delegates." 


As  a  wife  of  a  senator,  the 
author  presents  her  program  in 
which  she  uses  to  be  aware  and 
still  a  homemaker.  One  of  her 
suggestions  is  "Pooling  our 
children  saves  time."  She  ex- 
plains the  advantage  of  free 
afternoons  and  how  the  children 
benfit  from  the  experience  of 
group  activity  and  cooperation. 
Sharing  creates  lime 

She  continues  to  point  out  the 
profit  of  sharing  house  work, 
utilizing  older  children  as 
babysitters,  discussing  politics 
over  the  ironing  and  planning 
workloads  efficiently  to  save 
time  for  politics. 

However,  the  article  does  not 
include  woman  as  active  par- 
ticipanls  such  as  candidates  or 


lAmendinents 

The  following  amendments  will  appear  at  the  top  of  ttie  voting 
machines  above  the  candidates'  names.  These  must  be  voted  upon 
separately,  either  yes  or  no. 

Superintendent  of  Public  Instruction 

Shall  the  Constitution  of  the  State  of  Indiana  be  amended  to  permit 
the  general  assembly  to  establish  the  method  of  selection  and  tenure  of 
the  State  Superintendent  of  Public  Instruction' 

The  superintendent  of  Public  Instruction  could 
be  elected  or  selected  by  a  method  other  than 
election  and  his  term  of  office  would  be  set  by 
law.  Presently  he  is  elected  for  two  years  in  a 
partisan  election. 

Governor  -  two  consecutive  terms 

Shall  the  Constitution  of  the  State  of  Indiana  be  amended  to  permit 
L^e  governor  to  serve  eight  out  of  any  twelve  years? 

The  governor  could  be  limited  to  two  con- 
secutive terms.  Presently  he  is  limited  to  one 
term. 

Governor  veto  power 

Shall  the  Constitution  of  the  State  of  Indiana  be  amended  to  permit 
the  governor  seven  days  in  which  to  clarify  certain  procedures  for 
handling  vetoed  legislation? 

The  governor  could  have  seven  days  to  act 
upon  legislation,  A  vetoed  bill  would  have  to  be 
returned  to  the  General  Assembly  the  first 
session  following  the  veto  if  this  amendment 
were  to  be  passed.  Presently  the  governor  has 
three  days  during  a  session  and  five  days  after 
adjournment  to  act  upon  a  bill. 

Terms  of  county  officers 

Shall  the  Constitution  of  the  State  of  Indiana  be  a  mended  to  permit 
i-Liunty  officers  to  serve  an  unlimited  number  of  terms  instead  of  two 
tfrms  and  makipg  the  coroner  a  statutory  officer  rather  than  a  con- 
stitutional officer? 

County  officer  could,  if  this  amendment  is 
passed,  serve  for  an  unlimited  number  of  terms. 
The  coroner  would  be  excluded  from  the  con- 
stitution   mafeine    his    affiro    subject    to    law. 

Vacancies  in  the  Legislature 

Shall  the  Constitution  ol  the  State  of  Indiana  be  amended  to  permit 
the  General  Assembly  to  establish  by  law  a  method  of  filling  vacancies 
"1  the  General  Assembly?

even  campaign  volunteers.  She 
presents  them  as  the  woman 
behind  the  man  who  is  in  con- 
tention for  leadership. 

Vogue,  Aug  1972,  presents  the 
political  woman  today  It  stated 
nearly  40  percent  of  the  delegates 
in  the  Democratic  convention 
were  women  and  close  to  30 
percent  in  the  Republican  con- 
vention. In  Elizabeth  Hardwick's 
article  she  states,  "Political 
groups  out  of  necessity  will  have 
to  be  large  enough  to  count  to  be 
significant  The  group  is  then 
society  itself  with  its  wearisome 
threatening  unpredictability  and 
its  ghastly,  multituinous 
problems,  Tiiere  is  a  question 
whether  women  rightly  can  be 
judged  a  political  pressure  group 
—  except  on  their  exclusion  on 
the  grounds  of  sex." 
Women  compete  against  men 

Elizabeth  Hardwick  believes  a 
political  office  must  be  won. 
Women  politicians  will  take 
power  from  a  manor  woman.  She 
will  have  to  consider  her  role 
society  has  conditioned  for  her. 

"Only  time  will  show  how 
much  ,  .  women  can  seize, 
wrest,  grab.  It  will  not  come  as  a 
gift  nor  as  an  act  of  proportion,"

are  voted  for  automatically  If  a 
person  wishes  to  split  his  ticket 


he    must    flip    the    levers     in- 
dividually. 

For  instance  if  a  person  wishes 
to  vote  mainly  for  Democrats  and 
but  a  few  Republicans,  he  may 
pull  the  Democrat  lever  and 
procede  to  vote  individually  for 
the  Republicans,  and  vice  versa. 
If  the  voter  does  not  wish  to  vote 
for  a  specific  candidate  he  must 
flip  his  lever  up.  This  cancels  the 
vote  but  if  he  wishes  to  vole  for 
the  opposing  candidate  he  must 
also  flip  his  lever  down. 

I'he  straight  ticket  levers  do 
not  have  to  be  used.  If  a  voter 
wishes  to  cast  his  ballot  for  each 
office  individually  he  may  do  so 
by  flipping  up  those  levers  for 
those  he  does  not  wish  in  office 
and  flipping  down  levers  of  those 
he  does  wish  to  be  in  office. 
Amendments  require  vole 

Appearing  above  the  can- 
didates* names  for  office  are  the 
proposed  amendments  on  which 
to  be  voted  yes  or  no  and  the 
judges  and  justices  for  which  the 
voter  casts  his  ballot  in  favor  of 
or  in  opposition  to  the  positions 
being  maintained. 

Tnese  items  also  have  specific 
levers  to  push  up  or  down.  It  is 
important  voters  cast  their  ballot 
ine  way  or  another  on  these 
items.  Estimates  reveal  less  than 
50  percent  will  bother  to  vote  for 
or  against  the  amendments  or  for 
or  against  maintaining  judges. 


Republican:  Nixon 


by  Bill  Watson 

Seeking  re-election  in  this  year's 
Presidential  race,  Richard  M.  Nixon  offers 
a  platform  that  would  hopefully  bring  a 
less  troubled  America.  He  has  called  this 
election  "the  clearest  choice  offered  to 
America's  voters  in  this  century." 

In  1968,  Nixon  took  office  in  a  period  cf  rising  crime 
rates,  inflation,  pollution,  and  violent  disenchantment 
with  our  govemnrient  Instituting  several  long  range 
programs  to  combat  some  of  Uiese  problems,  Nixon 
now  wishes  to  continue  in  office  in  order  to  oversee 
their  success 

Here  is  his  platform  on  major  national  topics  along 

ith  significant  accomplishments  during  his  four 
years  as  President; 

War  in  Vietnam  —  Nixon  took  office  in  January  of 
1969,  with  M9,000  troops  in  Vietnam  After  a  gradual 
withdrawal  of  ground  troops  between  1969  and  1972,  all 
combat  operations  are  completely  conducted  by  the 
South  Viet,  While  campaigning  in  1968.  he  promised  an 
honorable  end  to  American  participation.  Now,  after 
years  of  negotiations,  terms  for  peace  have  been 
nearlv  completed  In  doing  so,  he  has  also  negotiated 
the  terms  for  the  return  of  all  prisoners  of  war,  a  major 
concern  in  the  wind  down  of  the  war. 

Because  of  massive  defense  spendings,  Nixon  plans 
to   trim   unnecessary   spending   by   a   considerable 


amount.  He  doesn't,  however,  want' to  risk  America's 
securitv  in  doing  so. 

Economv  —  Inflationary  trends  forced  Mr,  Nixon  to 
implement' a  90-day  wage-price  freeze  followed  by  a 
temporary  flexible  wage-price  freeze  control  program 
This  move  received  severe  criticism  from  political 
opponents,  The  rate  of  innation,  though,  dropped  to  3 
per  cent  To  provide  more  jobS,  espetially  for, the 
returning  veterans,  Nixon  has  signed  the  Emergency 
Employment  Act  to  provide  a  quarter  million  new  jobs 
He  also  backed  expansion  of  federally  assistance  to 
manpower  programs  He  increased  America's  trade 
market  recently  through  trade  agreements  with  the 
Soviet  Union- 
Education  —  Presi.dent  Nixon,  in  his  message  on 
Higher  Education  stated  "No  qualified  studefits  who 
want  to  go  to  college  should  be  barred  by  lack  of 
money.  In  the  Education  AmeLidmenls  Act  of  1972. 
Nixon  expanded  assistance  to  students  along  with  a 
students  loan  association. 

At  the  elementary  and  secondary  level,  Nixon  s 
orogram  to  reform  educational  process  is  supposed  to 
insure  that  99  per  cent  of  al!  16-year-olds  can  read  b> 
1980.  President  Nixon  stated,  "I  am  determined  to  see 
to  it  that  the  flow  of  power  in  education  goes  toward, 
and  not  awav  from  the  community," 

Drugs  —  "When  we  look  at  the  vicious,  destructive, 
effects  that  drugs  have  on  individual  lives,  on  society 
as  a  whole,  there  is  no  question  but  that  dl-ug  abuse  is 
Public  Enemy  Number  One  in  the  United  States," 


Nixon  instituted  several  programs  to  prevent  drug 
abuse.  A  program  under  the  Internal  Revenue  Service 
is  presently  investigating  the  tax  returns  of  major  drug 
distributors  Tax  assessments  have  already  reaches 
$54  million  in  one  year. 

RehabiliUtion  programs  and  treatment  centers  will 
be  boosted  bv  1973,  financially,  to  treat  60,000  addicts 

Nixon  gained  further  ground  by  making  agreements 
with  Turkey  to  ban  the  cultivation  of  poppies,  used  m 
making  heroin.  To  stop  narcotic  smuggling,  tlie 
President  also  worked  to  set  up  international  controls  i 
on  drug  traffic.  I 

Crime  —  President  Nixon  attempted  to  tackle 
organized  crime,  in  1-970,  with  the  Organized  Crime 
Control  At:t  The  act  cracked  down  on  loop  holes  used 
by  criminals  to  -avoid  prosecution  It  gave  Federal 
jurisdiction  over  gambling  operations,  a  major  source 
of  revenue. 


Foreign  Policy  —  After  years  of  little  relations  with 
the  communist  powers.  People's  Republic  of  China  and 
USSR,  Nixon  establisheo  limited  diplomatic  relatiorn 
with  both.  In  March  1972,  he  travelled  to  USSR 
becoming  the  only  President  to  enter-  Moscow.  Ht 
mcde  several  agreements  including  missile  limitation, 

environmental  protection,  and  disease  research 

During  his  last  four  years,  the  President  assigned  a 
weapons  treatv,  banning  experimentation  on  the  oceat 
floor  with  81  other  nations.  Also  agreed  upon,  was  a  bat 
on  production  of  biological  weapons  signed  in  April 


Nixon  analysis 

Our  President  seems  to  have  conveniently  ended  the 
war  in  Vietnam,  or  at  least  nearly  ended  it,  just  a  matter  of 
days  before  the  election. 

Industry  —  Nixon  is  basically  funded  by  big  in. 
dustrialists.  After  the  ITT  affair  over  bribery  in  an  anti- 
trust  suit,  such  support  seems  almost  indicative  of 
something. 

Campaign  support  —  In  traditional  political  style, 
Nixon  is  vote  —  chasing  again  in  this  years  election.  His 


administration  w/ithdrew  backing  cf  an  anfi. strike  bill 
opposed  by  the  Teamsters  Union.  The  Union  then  came  out 
in  support  of  Nixon.  Cash  contributions  from  wealthy 
"friends"  makes  you  curious  about  what  will  be  given  in 
return  for  their  help. 

The  President's  implementation  of  a  wage  —  price 
freeze  destroyed  any  chance  for  wage  agreement  made 
between  laborers  and  employers.  The  government  has 
taken  grasp  of  our  free  enterprise  system,  preventing  many 
workers  from  rising  on  the  pay  scale. 


Vietnam  proposal 
offers  problems 

by  Janet  Bell 

With  the  Watergate  Incident  still  smoldering  on  October 
26,  the  nevws  became  official.  It  showed  that  on  October  8  the 
Hanoi  communists  took  the  initiative  and  secretly  proposed 
to  the  United  States  a  complete  cease-fire  that  was  mainly 
along  the  lines  Washington  wanted. 

One  troublespot  in  Nixon's  campaign  and  the  peace 
proposal  is  the  move  that  President  Thieu  took.  "He  put  the 
United  States  in  the  decidedly  embarrasing  position  of 
appearing  to  do  what  he  said  he  never  would,  impose 
coalition  on  Saigon,"  said  Newsweek  magazine. 

A  sudden  cut  in  military  and  economic  aid  that  would  be 
enough  to  budge  Thieu  would  risk  stealing  the  doom  of  South 
Vietnam  along  with  him.  A  move  like  this  could  be  followed 
by  widescale  defection  from  the  army.  Richard  Nixon  just 
can't  afford  the  possibility  of  chaos  in  Saigon  two  weeks 
before  the  election. 

In  sumation,  President  Nixon  is  in  a  difficult  spot 
concerning  the  election,  for  if  he  accepts  the  peace  proposal 
from  the  Vietnamese  the  American  people  will  shout  that  if 
he  had  held  out  longer  we  would  have  gotten  more  points  in 
the  U.  S.  favor. 

The  public  may  alsofigure  that  if  Nixon  can  end  the  war 
before  the  election,  the  liberal  Republicans  can  vote  for 
McGovern  thus  gaining  their  "generation  of  peace", 
provided  by  the  Nixon  administration  along  with  the  fringe 
benefits  of  the  McGovern  ticket. 

If  he  turns  down  the  proposal  he  might  be  losing  the 
good  relations  we  have  developed  with  the  government  of 
Thieu  and  the  government  of  North  Vietnam.  The  United 
States  may  not  be  offered  as  good  a  peace  package  again. 
President  Nixon  must  look  at  not  only  his  political 
career  but  at  the  tiring  opposition  and  the  weakening 
moral;  toward  the  Asian  war  adopted  by  the  American 
public.

Democratic:  McGovern 


bv  John  Hoard 

Senator  George  McGovern,  the  man  who 
came  from  nowhere  in .  quest  for  the 
Presidency  of  the  United  States.  His 
campaign  has  been  shaky  as  well  as  his 
platform  for  election,  however  McGovern 
stands  for  what  many  Americans  feel  we 
need  instead  of  what  we  want. 

Senator  McGovern  stands  for  reform  of  the 
American  life  "'Historically,  Democrats  have  been  in 
the  forefront  of  progressive  and  humanitarian 
government  Social  Security,  Medicare,  fair  labor 
standards,  the  commitment  to  full  employment,  aid  to 
foreign  allies  —  these  are  but  a  few  of  the  policies  and 
programs  that  were  initiated  by  Democrats  but 
frequently  opposed  by  Republicans." 

After  a  somewhat  troublesome  conventior;,  the 
Democratic  Party  regrouped  under  McGovern  and 
Shriver  and  the  Senator  once  again  started  attacking 
Nixon's  efforts  to  wind-down  the  war, 
Vietnam  —  Senator  McGovern  stated  his  policy  on 
Vietnam  would  be  to  'stop  the  bombing  of  Indochina  on 
Inauguration  Day  and  withdraw  all  American  troops 
from  Vietnam  within  90  days, 

—  end  all  military  assistance  to  the  Thieu  regime 
(South  Vietnam)  which  McGovern  believes  is 
unrepiesentative  and  illegitimate.  Aid  would  be  ter- 
minated within  90  days. 

—  close  bases  in  Thailand. 


—  insist  that  all  prisoners  be  released  immediately 
after  the  cessation  of  the  hostilities," 

Welfare  —  "  ■  Would  scrape  existing  welfare  svstem 
and  repeal  the  S750  federal  income  tax  individual 
deduction  las  part  of  income-redistribution  plan  i  All 
individuals  would  receive  a  $4,000  federal  grant  with 
those  below  proverty  line  keeping  all.  Those  above  the 
break-even  level  would  refund  all,  and  those  between 
would  keep  a  sliding  proportion.  S14  billion  in  yearly 
income  would  shift  to  those  in  proverty,  with  another 
S29  billion  for  those  between  proverty  and  break-even. 
Supports  massive  program  of  government  created 
jobs." 


Crime  —  "  -  Proposes  Policeman's  Bill  of  Rights,' 
modeled  on  original  GI  Bill,  providing  federally  sub- 
sidizedhigher  education  and  other  incintives  to  enter  a 
police  career.  Favors  stricter  handgun  controls,  prison 
reform  emphasizing  rehabilitation,  and  expanded 
programs  against  juvenile  delinquency,  Opposes 
preventive  detention,  expanded  wire  tapping,  no-knock 
searches,  and  mandatory  minimum  sentences.  Op- 
poses marijuana  legalization,  but  favors  ending  prison 
sentences  for  users." 

Environment  —  "  -  Proposes  "White  House  Council  of 
National  Resources  Advisers'  to  set  natural  resources 
con.servation  policy.  Urges  national  wilderness 
preservation  system.  Has  opposed  Senate  efforts  to 
dilute  the  Federal  Water  Quality  Standards  and  Clean 


Air  acts-  Supports  Senate  bill  guaranteeing  all  citizens 
right  to  a  pollution-free  environment.  The  bill  gives 
ordindry  citizens  standing  in  federal  and  stale  courts  to 
file  antipollution  suits  against  government  agencies 
and  others" 

Civil  Rights  —  "■  -  Supported  all  major  civil-rights 
legislation  of  the  last  decade.  Advocates  Indian  self- 
help  and  self-determination  with  minimal  interference 
from  Washington  Proposes  special  bank  assuring 
Indians  over  §320  million  in  loans  for  economic 
development.  Urges  congressional  investigation  of 
FBI  which  he  charges  discriminates  against  minorities 
in  hiring  and  fails  to  spend  adequate  effort  on  cases 
involving  nonwhites." 

Defense  Spending  —  "  -  Urges  concentration  of  in- 
dustry and  technology  on  domestic  problems  rather 
than  new  weapons  systems  Proposes  S30  billion  annual 
cut  in  defense  spending  by  eliminating  waste  and 
duplication.  Favors  volunteer  Army  ,  .  would 
reduce  military  manpower  from  2,505,000  to  1,735,000." 

Busing  —  '"  -  Supports  busing  as  one  way  of  ending 

school  segregation  Says  excessive  or  unreasonable 
busing  is  not  the  real  issue.  Endorses  'reasonable, 
incremental  busing  to  be  used,  when  other  remedies 
fail,  as  a  means  of  fulfilling  our  18-year-old  com- 
mitment to  integrated  schools,"  Criticizes  President 
Nixon  for  'making  political  capital'  on  this  issue  Calls 
quality  education  the  real  issue,  proposing  federal 
government  pay  one-lhird  of  public  education  costs," 


McGovern  analysis 


If  Senator  McGovern  would  ever  make  up  his  mind  his 
campaign  might  be  a  little  less  confusing.  He's  changed  his 
mind  on  everything  in  the  past  five  to  seven  years. 

Vietnam  — 

His  platform  may  be  a  good  one  for  those  idealistic 
enough  to  believe  that  the  No^-th  Vietnamese  would  return 
our  prisoners  without  some  show  of  force  as  bargaining 
power.  He  stated  of  they  weren't  promptly  returned  he 
would  "beg"  for  their  return. 

However,     it    seems    that    Nixon    has    improved    on 


McGovern's  anti-war  platform  by  instilling  It  in  a  timely 
political  move. 
Welfare  — 

His  $1,000  guaranteed  annual  wage  has  turned  into  a 
$4,000  grant  only  to  those  who  need  it.  Same  problems  as 
before  would  still  exist.  Who  gets  the  money,  who  decides 
who  gets  the  money  and  where  are  we  going  to  get  the  extra 
money  for  those  wanting  to  take  advantage  of  this  increase? 
Busing  — 

He  feels  busing  is  right  for  integration  yet  he  states  it's 
"not  the  real  issue." 


Economy  tomorrow 
faces  problems 


by  John  C.  Hoard 

The  effects  of  the  upcoming  election  will  probably  be 
seen  most  drastically  in  the  economic  changes  of  our 
American  way  of  life.  Ournation  will  be  trying  to  regain  the 
lost  profits  of  the  war  through  domestic  spending.  The 
success  of  this  domestic  trading  for  internal  rebuilding  will 
rely  heavily  upon  the  legislation  passed  by  Congress  and  the 
President. 

Unfortunately  in  the  past  four  years  our  inflation  has 
continued  to  increase  even  though  Nixon  has  tried  to  stop  it. 
With  prices  going  up,  wages  staying  the  same  and  unem- 
ployment rising  the  American  is  becoming  wiser  and 
tighter  in  his  spending. 

The  talk  of  many  economists  is  the  trend  that  the 
American  economy  seems  to  follow.  From  depression,  to 
inflation,  to  prosperity,  to  deflation  and  back  once  again  to 
depression.  Many  economists  feel  that  if  our  present  in- 
flation rate  continues  that  the  slump,  depression  or  panic 
that  will  follow  may  be  greater  than  that  of  the  1930's. 

With  the  ending  or  at  least  probable  ending  of  the  In- 
dochina conflict  at  hand,  it  is  emminent  that  Americans 
realize  the  possible  hazards  involved.  Let  us  hope  that  we 
Americans  will  field  a  Congress  that  will  cooperate  with  the 
President  and  hopefully  choose  a  President  who  will  do  the 
same  with  Congress. 

Legislation  must  reflect  planning  so  that  the  greatest 
number  of  Americans  are  helped.  In  order  for  our  economy 
not  to  nosedive  we  need  internal  projects  which  will 
stabilize  our  economy,  yet  also  help  our  people,  land  and 
water  resources. 

Our  economy  is  only  one  problem  which  our  next 
President  must  face.  Yet  the  economy  is  a  reflection  of  a 
great  many  problems,  wants  and  needs.  Let  us  hope  our 
economy  will  prosper  peacefully  under  the  next  leaders  of 
America.

UFO? 


AILS!^m^^iL^ 


"It   was    a  moving,  glowing  object   .  ,  .  goldish   redish,"  stated  juniors  Craig 
Masters    and    Brett     Kelsey    of    -'something    in    the    sky."    The    newspaper 
photographers   were   looking  west  from  Engle  Road  at  approximately  6  pm

Art  students  create  films 


Students  in  Mr  Don  Goss' stagecraft 
class  are  currently  making  ten  second 
spot  films  to  be  shown  during  the 
holidays  on  television  station  WANE- 
TV  15. 

Each  film  is  made  by  taking  240 
photographs.  Each  animation's 
movement  in  the  film  is  laid  down  on 
paper  and  then  three  pictures  are  taken 
and  moved  again  for  three  more  pic- 
lures.  To  equal  one  second,  24  pictures 
must  be  taken.  This  includes  eight 
movements  with  three  pictures  of  each. 
Each  film  must  include  the  words  'A 
Holiday  Special.  WANE  15'. 

"My  film  is  a  flock  of  birds  flying 
withabunchof  trees  in  the  background. 
They    change    colors,"    stated    senior 


Leslie    Line 

Junior  Randy  Collins  is  working  on  an 
animation  of  Mother  Mary  and  Jesus, 
"It's  an  animation  drawing.  At  (he 
beginning  of  the  film  there  is  nothing  at 
all  and  then  suddenly  a  big  fat  line 
appears.  It  goes  around  the  paper 
tracing  and  drawing  the  picture  The 
words  will  draw  themselves  in  at  the 
same  time.  It'll  sort  of  look  like  magic 
writing," 
Students  create  ideas 

"I'm  going  to  have  the  lettering  come 
on  for  a  couple  of  seconds,"  senior  Don 
Miller  commented.  "Then  I'll  have  a 
deer  walk  across  the  screen,  I've  been 
thinking  about  pasting  different  colors 
on  for  the  background  and  have  it  spin 


around  and  around.  The  deer  will  be  an 
orange  color  or  brown," 

Other  students  working  on  film  ideas 
are  senior  Beth  Miller  and  Jody  Dell 
and  juniors  Dennis  Smith,  Dan  Meeks 
and  John  Wright.  The  classes  will  also 
be  working  on  the  Christmas  program

Reveals  plans 

Sinks  wins  election 


Guidance  counselor  John  Sinks  has 
been  re-elected  to  his  fifth  consecutive 
term  as  a  State  Representative  from 
the  Tenth  District,  The  Republican 
politician  was  first  elected  in  1964, 

"I  was  real  pleased  with  this  elec- 
tion," said  Mr,  Sinks.  "I  didn't  think  I'd 
muster  up  that  many  votes,"  He  led  the 
other  five  candidates  in  total  vote 
count, 

"I'd  like  to  thank  many  people  that 
attend  Elmhurst  —  the  18  year  olds  and 
their  parents  for  supporting  me.  I  hope 
I  can  live  up  to  their  expectations.  It  is 
real  gratifying.  I  don't  feel  I  should  let 
these  people  down  as  they  have  been 
,  good  backers,"  said  Mr.  Sinks. 

With  73  Republicans  and  27 
Democrats,  in  the  House  Mr.  Sinks 
said,  "Everything  looks  good.  I  voted 
for  it  (property  tax  relief)  all  the  way 
last  year  and  all  the  way  this  year.  The 
Governor  (Bowenl  will  get  this 
program  through,"  He  has  said  he 

will  not  sign  any  tax  proposal  thai  won't 
provide  property  tax  relief.  We'll 
finally  get  property  tax  relief  for  the 
people,"  Mr.  Sinks  explained. 

When  asked  if  he  has  noticed"  any 
significant  changes  in  campaign  tactics 
over  the  past  ten  years,  Mr.  Sinks  said. 
''Tactics  were  a'little  questionable  in 
Jms  campaign,  I  wish  we  would  outlaw 
this  sign  business.  Stealing,  pasting 
over  names,  pulling  signs  out  of  yards 
are  poor  tactics. 

The  House  will  be  in  session  Jan.  9  ■ 
April  30  They  are  permitted  to  meet  up 
to  61  work  days,  not  calendar  days.  "I 
will  be  home  most  of  the  weekends," 


Mr.    Sinks   said. 

_  Any  student  who  would  be  interested 
in  working  as  a  page  after  January 
should  contact  Mr.  Sinks,  "Students 
should  write  me  and  tell  me  the  day 
they  would  like  to  come  to  Indianapolis. 
They  would  work  on  the  floor  of 
Representatives  It  is  an  excused  ab- 
sence." he  said.

Election  aftermath 


Tax  supports  fighting; 
Militants  refuse  to  pay 

Ten  per  cent  of  every  American's  phone  bill  is  used 
to  escalate  the  Vietnam  War.  The  majority  of  those 
paying  the  tax  are  unaware  of  its  purpose  although 
recently  a  movement  has  begun  to  boycott  the  tax,  thus 
showing  opposition  to  the  war.  They  are  confronting  the 
government  as  individuals  by  refusing  to  pay.  They  are 
effectively  protesting  in  order  to  force  the  government 
to  recognize  them. 

Thousands  of  Americans  have  begun  refusal  to  pay 
the  fax.  Telephone  companies  are  not,  in  any  way, 
punishing  the  registers  and  have  assured  them  that 
their  services  would  not  be  cancelled.  The  companies 
treat  the  problem  as  a  conflict  between  the  individual 
and  the  government.  The  fax  is  simply  not  added  to  the 
bill  upon  request  by  the  register. 

Those  refusing  to  pay  the  tax  show  a  willingness  to 
resist  the  war  to  the  point  of  breaking  the  law.  This 
action  compells  others  to  look  more  closely  at  the  war 
situation. 

Government  must  contend  with  these  law  breakers 
until  it  changes  present  politics. 

To  avoid  paying  the  tax,  a  letter  explaining  the 
purpose  is  written  to  the  telephone  company.  When 
paying  the  phone  bill,  only  the  fax  is  eliminated.  The 
letter  is  necessary  as  a  person  could  be  charged  with 
fraud  without  it. 

The  boycott  is  an  effective  way  of  protesting  the 
senseless  Indochina  was.  "It  is  clear,"  said  Republican 
Wilbur  Mills,  chairman  of  the  House  Ways  and  Means 
Committee,  "that  the  Vietnam,  and  only  the  Vietnam 
operation,  makes  this  bill  necessary." 

With  the  help  of  conscientious  Americans,  the 
telephone  fax  and  the  war  involved  with  it  may  be 
ended  and  completely  abolished. 


Political  strategy  lacks 
proper  attitude,  feeling 


Bribery,  political  manipulation,  misleading  psycology  and  oul-and- 
out  lying  have  become  guidelines  for  Ihe  election  of  a  President. 
AUhough  such  practices  are  nothing  new  in  American  politics, 
presently  with  the  modern  and  ollen-times  critical  news  media  of  our 
country 'it  would  seem  that  the  candidates  would  be  more  discreel  in 
their  employment  of  these  tactics. 

President  Nixon's  36  million  dollar  campaign  was  aided  by  a  6 
million  dollar  grant  from  a  major  automobile  company.  It's  obvious 
that  they  expected  Nixon  to  win  and  they  will  expect  pro-corporation 
legislation  and  support  from  the  Nixon  administration. 

However,  this  seems  to  be  a  mild  form  of  political  scandal  as 
compared  to  President  Johnson's  reversal  on  the  Vietnam  conflict.  In 
Oclober  1968.  President  Johnson  attempted  lo  sway  the  nation  into 
voting  for  Humphrey  by  stopping  the  bombing  a  few  days  before  the 
election.  Although  his  attempt  to  put  the  feathers  of  peace  on  the 
Democratic  party  failed,  the  out  come  of  the  vote  was  closer  than  pre- 
election polls  indicated 

President  Johnson's  move  of  1968  may  be  correlated  lo  President 
Nixon's  "October  instant  peace,"  which  has  yet  to  materialize.  Nixon 
,  hadn't  ended  the  war  in  four  years,  contrary  io  his  campaign  promise 
Therefore,  he  accepted  peace  terms  which  he  had  rejected  for  mon- 
ths; and  in  a  timely  political  maneuver,  he  insured  an  almost  positive 
re-eleclion. 

President  Eisenhower  made  such  a  political  move  against 
Stevenson  in  1952.  The  main  issue  of  that  campaign  was  Ihe  Korean 
conflict.  A  few  weeks  before  the  election,  Eisenhower  went  to  Korea  to 
"see  the  problems  first-hand  "  This  (rip  endeared  him  to  the  public 
and  also  assured  him  a  victory. 

In  the  past  decade,  the  American  public  has  been  asked  to 
question  even  the  sanity  of  a  candidate.  In  1964.  the  Democrats 
claimed  that  Goldwater  was  insane  Everywhere  on  his  campaign 
trail  (which  in  miles  totaled,  the  equivalent  of  three  limes  around  the 
earth)  he  was  met  with  signs  reading:  "In  your  guts  you  know  he's 
nulsl"  Even  Thomas  Eagloton.  the  vice-Presidenlal  nominee  (for  a 
whilet  was  subject  to  such  national  psychoanalysis.  It  seems  wrong 
that  a  man's  sanity  should  be  in  question  after  he  has  distinguished 
himself  in  his  field  However,  such  are  the  mishaps  of  the  American 
political  machine 

It  appears  American  politicians  are  presenting  themselves  and 
their  campaigns  increasingly  on  a  personal  attack  level.  What 
America  needs  and  must  relentlessly  strive  for  is  a  statesman  who  will 
attack  the  issues  and  leave  thecharaclerassasinations  uncreated 


Nixon  faces  problems 


By   Bill  Watson 

With  election  results 
revealing  overwhelming 
public  confidence  in 
President  Nixon,  the  next 
four  years  will  be  used  to 
continue  his  domestic  and 
international  plans. 


Nixon,  during  his  first  four 
years  in  the  White  House. 
gradually  climbed  the  scale  of 
popularity  to  the  point  where  he 
swept  the  national  elections  with 
well  over  sixty  percent  of  Ihe 
votes. 

Still  facing  the  Nixon  ad- 
ministration though  are  several 
problems  left  him  bv  his 
predecessors.     The     Vietnam

conflict  has  troubled  Nixon  like  a 

plague.  The  premature  promise 
of  peace  presented  by  Nixon  has 
yet  to  be  agreed  upon  by  all 
parties  involved. 

Nixon  must  also  again  contend 
with  a  Democratic  Congress. 
Apparently  his  name  was  not 
enough  to  carry  in  more 
Congressmen  with  him.  This 
could  be  a  barrier  to  any 
proposals  he  makes  especially 
concerning  the  economy- 
International  affairs  also  still 
require  doctoring  up. 

Negotiations  in  the  Middle  East 
between  Israel  and  Egypt  are  at 
a  minimum  right  now. 

The  most  controversial 
problem  ahead  of  Nixon  is  the 
wage-price  freeze.  Since  these 
controls  expire  on  April  30,  Nixon 
must  either  continue  it  or 
abandon  it. 

Nixon  IS  hoping  to  resubmit  his 
welfare  reform  plan  that  includes 
a  guaranteed  income.  At  the 
same  time  he  plans  to  lessen  the 
tax  troubles  of  property  owners. 
In  the  later  part  of  this  upcom- 
ing term ,  the  President  will 
burdened  with  grooming  a 
Republican  successor  to  his  slay 
in  office,  most  likelv  Vice  i 
Presidnet  Agnew.  With  Teddy 
Kennedy  looking  more  and  more 
like  tlie  chief  opposition  in  1976, 
the  Republican  party  will  need  a 
strong  candidate  to  outrun  Ihe 
Kennedy  name, 

Nixon's  first  term  is  still  not 
over  but  yet  he  inevitably  will 
tangle  with  many  problems  he 
has  alreadv  faced.

Self  interest  replaces] 
old  American  values 


Recently,  many  traditions  and  accepted  values  have  been 
abandoned  for  a  newer,  more  modern  approach.  In  addressnuj 
members  of  the  American  Bar  Association,  Lewis  F.  Powell,  Jr.  saul, 
"There  is  reason  for  concern  that  values  once  held  high  in  om 
society  now  tend  to  be  denigrated.  I  have  in  mind  those  values  tlv 
individual  once  gained  from  responsible  participation  in  a  lartjn 
community  life." 

Mr.  Powell  believes  numerous  people  are  leaning  much  mc 
towards  self-interest  rather  than  a  community.  "In  a  familiar  phra" 
everyone  wants  'to  do  his  own  thing,'  "  he  said. 

Though  this  is  the  opinion  of  only  one  man,  it  can  be  witnessi  <l 
almost  anywhere.  A  shopping  center  represents  a  community  which 
is  highly  individualized.  Everyone  is  there  for  the  same  purpose 
however  his  interest  is  solely  in  his  own  purpose.  Unless  you  meet  a 
friend  or  acquaintance,  you'll  very  seldom  be  approached  or  greeted. 
Everyone  is  too  engrossed  with  his  or  her  needs. 

Mr,  Powell  believes  teachers,  parents,  ministers,  etc.  instilled  thtu 
values  upon  us.  And  from  these  relationships  we  gained  an  inner 
strength,  "a  sense  of  belonging,  as  well  as  of  responsibility  to 
others."  Today,  however,  this  influence  is  diminishing. 

Another  example  of  individualism  is  in  the  school.  Walking  down 
the  halls  and  smiling  at  someone  tends  to  make  one  feel  like  he  h.i^ 
committed  a  criminal  offense  or  the  biggest  social  goof  of  the 
decade. 

Individualism  is  also  expressed  in  half  days  at  school.  Students 
seem  to  be  less  interested  in  school  and  affiliated  activities  while 
outside  jobs  and  activities  are  dedicated  more  time.  Perhaps  thi5 
tradition  of  full  school  days  is  being  abandoned  to  permit  the 
student  to  spend  more  time  for  himself. 

Though  the  ideas  may  be  vague,  they  deserve  some  thought.  Whn 
and  what  is  your  mam  interest  and  how  much  time  do  we  speiul 
outside  of  our  own  interests?  I 


Tull  thrills  crowd  of  8,500  fans 


Bv  Janet  Be)l 

Hopping  about  and  swinging  his 
■lute  with  his  flowing  locks  changing 
hue  in  the  lights  was  Ian  Anderson, 
lead  singer  of  Jethro  Tull,  who  per- 
formed to  8,500  fans  in  the  Memorial 
Coliseum  Tuesday,  November  7. 

Gentle  Giant,  the  back-up  group, 
started  off  the  evening  with  two  lead 
singers,  an  extremely  talented 
electric  violinist  and  some  occasional 
brass  accompaniment.  The  group  held 
the  attention  of  the  Coliseum  as  shouts 
of  "sit  down"  could  be  heard  in  the 
dark.  Gentle  Giant  ended  their  set 
with  a  complicated  violin  solo  that 
stirred  many  to  standing  ovation. 

Intermission  seemed  to  conjure  the 
people  sitting  on  the  floor  into  moving 
forward  all  at  once.  The  result  was 
chaos  as  policemen  equipped  with  ear 
plugs  shook  their  heads  and  tried  to 
persuade  the  smoky  crowd  to  move 
back  explaining  that  a  fire  lane  was 
needed. 

Numerous  frisbees  floated  through 
the  air  as  the  first  chant  for  Jethro 
Tull  started  and  then  died  out.  By  this 
time  the  police  had  given  up  and 
decided  to  station  themselves  only  at 
the  doors. 

The  crowd  grew  bigger  and  more 
impatient  by  the  minute  as  various 
equipment  was  being  tested  on  stage. 
The  second  clapping  brought  out 
Jethro  Tull  at  9:  45.  The  group  walked 
on  the  stage  to  roaring  ap- 
plause. 

Lead  singer  Ian  Anderson 
stepped  to  the  microphone  clad  In  his 
traditional  plaid  great  coat, 
displaying  underneath  blue  leotards 
and  a  low  slung  silver  belt  with  a  chain 
that  dangled  as  he  danced.  The  bass 
player  was  attired  in  a  green  evening 
coat  and  tails,  while  the  drummer 
wore  red  tights  and  gym  shorts  with  a 
jersy  top.

Criticism  offers    correction 

Young  people  are  constantly  surrounded  by  per- 
sons who  think  it  their  right  and  duty  to  correct  you. 
Parents,  teachers,  employers,  older  brothers  and 
listers,  sometimes  even  close  friends  feel  they  should 
criticize  you  occasionally. 
Prepare  for  criticism 

They  see  some  responsibility  in  your  growing  up 
process,  and  can  always  tell  you  something  "for  your 
own  good."  One  should  be  prepared,  because  what  one 
doesn't  know  about  deflecting  or  absorbing  criticism 
can  hurt. 

Criticism  doesn't  have  to  be  voiced  to  have  a 
psychological  effect.  It  can  be  in  the  air-the  way  your 
parents  expect  you  to  do  ridiculous  things  sometimes, 
or  the  way  your  teachers  take  it  tor  granted,  you'll  have 
trouble  in  a  subject. 
Consider  wise  cirticism 

Of  course  not  all  criticism  is  damaging.  Some  is 
very  worthy  of  your  consideration.  Some  may  even  be 
complimentary. 

Advice  to  hurtful  criticism  is  not  to  respond  to  it  on 

the  spot,  but  to  take  time  to  digest  and  understand  wh 

you  have  been  told.

and  explained  their  first  number  was 
to  be  their  gold  album  "Thick  as  a 
Brick."  The  applause  swelled  as  the 
first  melodic  chords  echoed  through 
the  auditorium. 

Jethro  Tull,  presently  ex- 
perimenting with  new  sounds,  had 
their  sound  system  suspended  in  the 
air  which  produced  a  stereophonic 
effect. 

Just  as  the  number  began  a  phone 
rang  an  English  bobby  strolled  on 
stage  to  answer  the  phone.  He  then 
politely  nodded  to  each  member  of  the 
group  and  left  the  stage. 

As  Tull  got  into  "Thick  as  a  Brick" 
the  spellbound  audience  gazed 
through  the  hazy  colors  illuminating 
the  stage.  One  could  see  that  Anderson 
was  the  master  of  the  production  by 
the  way  he  commanded  the  group 
members  to  play. 

Hopping  around  on  one  foot  and 
using  thrusting  motions  with  his  hands 
he  literally  drew  music  from  his  band. 
He  would  stomp  about,  mauling  the 
lead  guitarist  and  then  point  his 
threatening  flute  commanding  the 
base  guitarist  to  play  harder. 

With  no  time  for  applause  the 
gentleman  dressed  in  tails  announced 
that  it  was  time  for  the  evening  news 

in  Britain. 

The  crowd  was  adrift  as  Anderson, 
silouetted  in  red  light  with  his  voice 
roaring,  went  into  a  flute  solo.  An- 
derson brought  the  coli  s^eum  from  the 
creshendo  of  piercing  but  melodic 
flute  interlude  to  dark  silence. 

Appearing  in  the  news  was  a  six-foot 
rabbit  who  attempted  to  explain  the 
differencebetweena  rabbit  and  a  non- 
rabbit.  The  rabbit  was  followed  by  a 
strange  weatherman  who  forecast  the 
weather  with  a  gorilla  standing  behind 
him  mimicking  his  every  move. 


"And  now  for  our  second  number," 
announced  Anderson  at  10:55.  The 
song  was  "Aqualung,"  which  caused 
the  crush  of  people  on  the  floor  to 
stand  on  their  chairs  and  nod  their 
heads  with  approval  to  the  music.  A 
distinct  o  dor,  stronger  now,  drifted 
silently  through  the  auditorium  as 
trance-like  eyes  were  fixed  on  An- 
derson^  

At  the  conclusion  of  the  song  Ian 
thanked  the  crowd  and  left.  The 
swelling  audience  demanded  an  en- 
core and  stood  clapping  for  five 
minutes  as  a  red  light  displayed  an 
empty  stage.  Jethro  Tull  trotted  back 
out  on  stage,  thanked  everyone  again 
and  proceeded  to  play  "Wind-up." 

The  concert  ended  forty-five 
minutes  later  bijt  the  ringing  in  ones 
ears,  comments  such  as  "I  could  have 
listened  to  them  all  night,"  and  Ian 
Anderson's  dancing  image  and 
musical  genius  remained.

Gridmen  trounce  Generals 


Splitting  their  last  two  football 
games  the  Trojans  finished  with 
a  5-4  record  to  give  Elmhurst  its 
fourth  straight  year  of  .500  or 
better  football. 

The  Trojans  lost  to  the  North 
Side  Redskins  on  muddy 
Chambers  field  13-6  in  their 
eighth  contest  of  the  year,  Due  to 
the  poor  condilions  Elmhurst 
made  six  turnovers,  five  of  which 
proved  costly  Four  stalled  of- 
fensive drives  and  the  initiated 
North's  winning  touchdown 
march 

The  Redskins  scored  first  on  a 
83-yard  drive  as  Bob  Tudor  went 
in  from  one-yard  out  with  1  ;57  left 
in  the  first  quarter  The  con- 
version attempt  was  blocked. 
Wallers  scores 

The  Trojans  received  the  en- 
suing kick-off  and  went  45-yards 
in  10  plays  with  senior  fullback 
Paul  Walters  scoring  from  the 
North  Side  9-yard  line.  The  extra- 
point  attempt  was  missed  tieing 
the  score  at  6-6. 

North  broke  the  tie  when 
Ronnie  Jones  capped  a  47-yard 
drive  with  a  five-yard  touchdown 
run.  The  extra-point  made  the 
score  13-6  with  8:22  left  to  be 
played  in  the  game, 

Elmhurst  threatened  to  score 
late  in  the  game  when  quarter- 
back Dave  Butler  hit  end  Don 
Miller  with  a  pass  and  Miller 
flipped  the  ball  to  halfback  John 
Adams  who  ran  to  the  North  Side 
19-yard  line  making  the  play  good 
for  64-yards.  The  Trojans  then 
moved  the  ball  to  the  five-yard 
line  where  ihey  failed  to  score  on 
a  fourth  and  goal  situation.  The 
Trojans  didn't  get  another 
change  to  score  and  they 
received  their  fourth  loss  of  the 
season. 
Elmhurst  defeats  Wayne  28-0 

Elmhurst  played  one  of  its 
finest  all-around  games  of  the 
season  as  they  defeated  the 
Wayne  Generals  on  a  thoroughly 
saturated  field  at  Wayne 
stadium.  The  offense  gained  134- 
yards  on  the  ground  and  quarter- 
back Dave  Butler  connected  on 
seven  of  eleven  passes  for  140- 
yards  and  two  touchdowns.  The 
defense  held  the  Generals  to  86- 
yards  of  total  offense  and 
recovered  two  fumbles. 

Mid-way  through  the  first 
quarter  the  Trojans  took  the  ball 
on  their  own  29-yard  line  and 
started  the  scoring  10  plays  later

when  end  Don  Miller  snared 
Dave  Butler's  pass,  spun  after 
being  hit  on  the  five-yard  line  and 
raced  into  the  right  corner  of  the 
endzone  The  play  was  good  for 
18-yards,  Tom  Kennerk  split  the 
uprights  for  a  7-0  lead, 

Wayne  couldn't  move  the  ball 
and  with  a  low  snap  from  center 
the  Generals  punter  was  forced  to 
run  and  was  tackled  for  a  13-yard 
loss,  Butler  then  threw  to  Miller 
for  11-yards  to  the  Wayne  six. 
Halfback  John  Adams  went  the 
remaining  distance  on  the  first 
play  of  the  second  stanza,  Ken- 
nerk booted  his  second  extra- 
point  to  move  the  Trojans  ahead 
14-0  with  11:56  to  go  ^  ""-  '-' 
half. 


Halfback  Bob  Paschall 
fielded  Wayne's  punt  on  his  own 
48-yard  line  reversed  fields  and 
behind  fine  blocking  galloped  52- 
yards  for  six  points.  Butler  then 
threw  to  Paschall  for  a  two-point 
conversion  and  a  22-0  halftime 
lead. 

Well  into  the  third  quarter 
Butler  hit  Miller  with  a  30-yard 
pass  for  Miller's  second  touch- 
down of  the  night.  The  run  for  the 
two-point  conversion  failed  and 
the  score  stood  at  28-0. 

"I  was  extremely  pleased  with 
all  aspects  of  the  Wa>Tie  game. 
The  season  had  its  ups  and  downs 
and  I  feel  more  depth  would  have 
the  first  helped,"  stated  head  coach 
Warren  Hoover. 


Ice  hockey,  Canada's  national 
sport,  is  a  fast,  rough,  team 
sport.  Six-man  squads  fiash  up 
and  down  the  rink  propelling  a 
hard  rubber  disk  called  a  puck, 
with  specially  designed,  curved 
sticks.  Alert  goalkeepers  dive 
and  slide  about  in  front  of  their 
goals  to  stop  shots  that  often 
travel  as  fast  as  ninety  mjles  per 
hour .  To  keep  the  game  going  at  a 
constantly  fast  pace,  ice  hockey 
has  added  a  unique  rule.  It  is  the 
only  sport  to  allow  substitutions 
while  play  is  in  progress 

Thousands  of  Canadians  play 
and  watch  hockey  games  each 
winter.  Hockey  is  also  a  rapidly 
growingly  sport  in  the  United 
States  and  the  rest  of  the  world.  It 
has  been  an  official  Olympic 
Games  sport  since  1920. 

Hockey  is  a  popular  amateur 
and  college  sport  in  Canada  and 
the  United  States.  Amateur 
hockey  is  controlled  by  national 
governing  bodies  in  many 
countries.  These  groups  form  the 
International  Ice  Hockey 
Federation,  which  conducts  a 
tournament  each  year  to 
determine  the  international 
amateur  champion. 

Professional        hockey        is 


probably  the  best-known  form  of 
the  sport.  The  National  Hockey 
League  is  hockey's  major  league. 
Other  professional  leagues  in- 
clude the  American  Hockey 
League,  the  Western  Hockey 
League,  and  the  International 
Hockey  League 
Komels  capture  second 

With  the  season  still  young  the 
Fort  Wayne  Komets  Hockey 
Team  captured  sole  position  of 
second  place  of  the  South 
Division  of  the  Intenrational 
Hockey  League  bv  defeating  the 
Flint  Generals  4-3,  This  gives 
them  a  7-7  record  as  of  last 
Sunday 

Komet  Hockey  is  Fort  Wayne's 
only  professional  sport  and  it  is 
doing  quite  well.  The  team  has 
been  drawing  crowds  of  more 
than  five  thousand  people  to  the 
Memorial  Coliseum  where  they 
play  their  home  games 

The  Komets  began  the  season 
on  a  slow  start  winning  only  one 
of  its  first  five  games.  But  since 
then  the  team  has  demonstrated 
its  ability  to  win  games,  Komet 
coach  Marc  Boileau  stated,  "It 
appears  the  team  is  starting  to 
round  into  shape  as  anticipated, 
and  should  be  a  real  contender 
the  rest  of  the  season," 


Defeat  Bruins 

Luers  captures  city  title 


Bishop  Luers  won  it's  second 
straight  city  championship  last 
Thursday  by  defeating  the 
Northrop  Bruins  20-12,  Ranked 
third  in  state,  the  Knights  led  by 
junior  quarterback  Mike 
Mungovan  defeated  the  Bruins  at 
muddy  Wayne  Stadium  with  a 
potent  running  attack. 

With  this  win.  Jack  Lehr's  club 
has  now  won  fifteen  in  a  row;  has 
gone  through  twenty-two  games 
without  a  loss,  and  has  lost  only 
one  of  his  last  thirty-six  games. 
Coach  Lehr  commented  after  the 
game,  "I  can't  praise  Northrop 
enough,  1  can't  praise  our  own 
kids  enough.  Everybody  played  a 
tremendous  game." 
Vachon  intercepts  pass 

The  first  quarter  saw  little 
action  as  neither  team  could  get 
their  offense  moving.  Northrop 
did  get  to  the  Luers  37,  but  at  that 
point  Mike  Vachon  intercepted  a 
Craig  Klein  pass. 

A  bad  snap  from  center  on  a 
Northrop  punt  resulted  in  the 
first  score  of  the  game.  Wid 
Knight,  Northrop  punter,  tried  to 
pass  after  the  bad  hike,  but  it  was 
intercepted  Matt  Lindsay  who 
scored  easily  making  the  score  6- 
0.  The  conversion  attempt  was 
unsuccessful. 

It  was  still  6-0  with  two  minutes 
to  play  in  the  half  when  Northrop 


took  over  on  its  own  forty.  After  ; 
time  out  and  with  just  sixteen 
seconds  showing  on  the  clock, 
Klein  went  back  to  pass.  It  was 
batted  by  a  Knight  defender,  but 
Wid  Knight  made  a  circus  catch 
and  with  just  ten  seconds 
remaining  in  the  half  it  was  all 
even  at  6-6.  The  Bruins  tried  to 
kick  for  the  extrapoint  but  it 
failed. 
Knights  take  lead 

To  begin  the  second  half  Paul 
Berry  returned  the  kickoff  17 
yards  to  the  Luers  27  and  the 
Knights  then  went  73  yards  in  17 
plays  for  their  second  touchdown, 
Mike  Mungovan  took  it  in  from 
the  seven  to  cap  the  Knights 
drive.  He  tried  to  run  for  two,  but 
was  smothered  and  it  was  a  12-6 
ball  game  with  4:35  to  go  in  the 
third  period. 

The  Bruins  were  held  and  were 
forced  to  punt.  This  time  Luers 
marched  72  yards  in  ten  plays  to 
get  its  clinching  touchdowTi.  That 
made  it  18-6  and  Mungovan 
completed  Luers'  scoring  by 
running  the  conversion  for  two 
more  points. 

Still  Buzz  Doerffler's  well- 
coached  Bruins  weren't  ready  to 
call  it  an  evening.  The  Bruins 
gained  possession  when  a  Luers 
try  for  a  first  down  with  fourth- 
and-inches  failed  and  moved  63

touchdown, 

Klein  scores  touchdown 

A  Klein  to  Jim  Dyer  pass  was 
good  for  40  yards  to  the  Luers  23. 
Then  after  three  passes  failed, 
Klein  found  Larry  Kennedy  for  a 
13-yard  gain  and  a  first  down 
inches  outside  the  Luers  ten. 
After  another  pass  failed,  Klein 
ran  for  eight  yards,  Northrop's 
longest  rush  of  the  evening,  to 
make  it  third  and  two  for  a 
touchdown.  On  third  down 
Kennedy  got  a  yard  and  on  foiu"th 
down  he  moved  to  within  inches 
of  the  goal,  but  good  enough  for 
the  first  down.  Then  Klein  took  it 
over  for  the  score  to  make  it  20- 
12.  He  tried  to  run  for  two  but 
didn't  come  close- 
Only  2: 17  remained  in  the  game 
at  this  point  and  until  then  not  a 
single  yard  had  been  walked  off 
in  penalties.  However,  Northrop 
was  called  for  a  personal  foul 
seconds  after  the  touchdown  and 
had  to  kickoff  from  its  own  25.  A 
short  kick  was  in  order,  but  Luers 
was  ready  and  smothered  it  on 
the  Northrop  42. 

Four  running  plays  failed  to 
pick  up  a  first  down  and  Northrop 
had  one  final  chance  when  it  took 
over  on  its  own  36  with  just  61 
seconds  to  play,

Club  develops  format 


Though  many  clubs  have  been 
termmateid  in  the  past  few  years, 
the  Red  Cross  Council  has 
changed  its  format  and  now  is  a 
service  club  open  to  all  students. 

Changing  its  name,  the  organization  is 
now  called  Youth  Council  The  change 
was  made  to  atlracl  more  students  and 
to  diminish  the  idea  of  a  nursing  or  medi- 
cal club. 

President  Barb  Young  explained, 
"We're  not  a  student  government  or  a 
money-making  club.  We're  strictly  a  ser- 
vice  club  and  are  open  to  any  boy  or  girl 
in  any  class  ' 

Club  open  to  students

The  club  also  measured  public  build- 
ings to  see  if  Ihey  were  adequate  for  hand- 
tcapped  people.  Door  ways  were 
measured  to  determine  if  they  were  wide 
enough  for  a  wheel  chair  lo  pass  through 
and  It  ramps  were  available  for  Ihe  con- 
venience of  Ihe  handicapped. 

An  annual  project  ol  the  Red  Cross 
Council  IS  Toys  lor  Tots.  This  has  been

Winter  excites  crowd 
witii  amazing  concert 

by  Chris  Dusendschon  ,.,-,, 

In  one  of  the  more  successful  turnouts  of  the  Embassy 
Concert  Series.  Edgar  Winter  thrilled  the  Fort  Wayne 
heavies  with  ■Roci>  and  Rolf  music  and  a  fantastic  show. 
Winter  dressed  in  a  gold  and  black  dress  jacket,  conser- 
vative black  flares  and  monster  platform  shoes,  played  many 
scnqs  from  the  White  Trash  album  and  from  their  newly 
released  They  Only  Come  Out  After  Dark.  Winter  played 
the  ARP  synthesiser,  a  keyboard  and  massive  cable  sus- 
pended around  his  neck,  the  electric  piano  and  sang 
dynamite  vocals.  Engaged  in  a  battle  with  the  lead  guitar 
player,  difficult  vocal  sounds  being  mimiced  m  perfect  time 
provided  the  group  with  a  prime  example  of  the  band  s 
live  presentations. 

Phoenix  Audio  Company's  sound  was  one  of  the  best 
ever  and  blended  well  with  the  acoustics  of  the  old  theater. 
Lighting  was  smooth  and  professional  based  on  good  taste 
and  compatability  with  the  music.  The  crowd  was  very 
receptive,  even  after  waiting  in  the  freezing  night  air  as 
much  as  an  hour  lor  opening. 

Theater  Arts  Productions,  sponsor  of  the  group,  provided 
the  ushers  clad  in  black  tuxedos,  top  hats  and  long  canes 
to  keep  the  friendly  crowd  in  line.  Their  faces  were  made-up 
in  various  grimaces  with  white  grease  paint  that  shone  in 
the  wild  lighting.  The  warm-up  group.  Flock,  from  Chicago 
was  also  great  using  a  violin  to  add  an  eerie  atmosphere 
to  the  opening  ceremonies  as  well  as  some  good  hard  rock 
and  general  audience  warmina.

Attention  class!  I  will  be  your 
teacher  for  the  ne«t  eight  weeks 

.  So  begins  the  arduous  task  of 
the  student  teacher  at  Elmhursl. 
These  soon-to-be  teachers  will 
encounter  everything  trom  "I  gotta 
go  to  the  bathroom"  to  "you're  not 
old  enough  to  teach!" 

Tackling  this  challenge  the  first 
semester  is  Mr  LesZorger,  22,  pre- 
sently teaching  United  States  his- 
tory under  Mr.  Werhling. 

Mr  Zorger  has  another  semester 
to  finish  at  I.U.  Purdue  before 
graduating.  He  has  a  Bachelor  of 
Science  degree  in  Social  studies, 
"I  think  kids  want  responsibility  but 
areni  able  to  accept  it  once  put 
■upon  them." 


"1  like  Elmhurst;although  thedis- 
cipline  in  class  is  a  problem,  "  The 
faculty  has  been  ver^  helpful  and 
friendly  to  me."  Mr.  Zorger  hopes 
to  teach  in  the  city  in  the  area  of 
U  S  Histo'-y 


■The  kids  are  easy  to  relate  to 
though  and  everyone  has  been 
really  nice  since  I've  been  here."

some  problems  I  have  never 
encountered.  Mr.  Brown,  21,  istrom 
Decatur  but  hopes  to  teach  m  Fort 
Wayne.  "Teaching  has  been  an 
overall  experience,  here.  I'm  inter- 
estedn  communications  as  a  whole 
and  the  group  discussion  aspect, 
although  public  speaking  has  its 
place."

Universities  criticize 
SAT    examinations 


SAT  examinations  are  under  fire  from  several  universities. 
The  three  hour  test  has  always  been  notorious  for  its  ego 
destroying  effects  on  students  who  aspire  to  be  future  col- 
lege students. 

According  to  Parade  Magazine  ot  November  19,  colleges 
and  universities  are  slowly  dropping  the  Scholastic  Aptitude 
Test  as  a  requirement  for  freshmen  admission.  Lee  Wilcox 
from  the  University  of  Wisconsin's  office  of  admissions 
claims.  "The  test  really  did  not  predict  that  well  what  a 
student's  performance  would  be.  Since  it  does  represent 
an  expense  in  both  time  and  money,  we  did  not  think  it 
was  fair." 

Bowdoin  College  claims  little  difference  between  those 
students  who  report  SAT  scores  and  those  who  don't. 
Bowdoin  is  a  leading  factor  in  the  push  to  remove  SAT 
scores  as  a  requirement. 

In  the  past,  exam  scores  were  used  as  the  deciding  factor 
for  acceptance  ot  those  students  whose  record  was  in  ques- 
tion. Under  a  new  proposed  system,  students  could  volun- 
tarily enter  SAT  scores  if  they  felt  their  high  school  record 
was  in  question. 

Because  of  claims  of  minority  discrimination,  the  College 
Board  has  included  sections  that  are  especially  relevant 
to  minority  students.  This  is  to  eliminate  any  feelings  of 
alienation  by  minority  students. 

Mr.  Douglas  Spencer,  head  guidance  counselor, 
explained,  "Some  institutions  are  fast  turning  against  the 
SAT  in  favor  of  their  own  tests.  Other  things  must  be  consi- 
dered by  colleges,  also,  such  as  class  rank,  high  school 
records  and  grades.  '  Mr.  Spencer  felt  that  the  College 
Board  is  "holding  its  own." 

The  day  when  high  SAT  scores  were  a  necessity  for 
acceptance  to  any  college  seem  to  be  quickly  leaving.  In 
its  place  colleges  are  beginning  to  place  greater  emphasis 
on  the  student's  past  performance  and  activities.  This  is 
undoubtedly  more  fair  to  the  perspective  college  student 
who  may  not  have  done  his  best  on  the  test  but  yet  mam- 
tained  an  outstanding  record  throughout  high  school.

Mike  Newell,  a  young  Salan 
worsfiippef  talked  two  of  his  friends 
mto  killing  tiim  a  year  ago.  He  con- 
vinced his  pals  that  by  dying  at  their 
hands  he  could  come  back  to  earlh 
by  Satan's  powers  and  could  be  the 
leader  ol  -lO  legions  of  devils.  They 
wrapped  him  in  tape  and  drowned 

Police  and  psychiatrists'  inves- 
tigations revealed  that  previous  to 
Mike's  death  he  had  performed 
several  incanlalions  and  cere- 
monies in  front  of  his  friends,  pro- 
ving his  affiliations  wilh  Salan  In 
one  such  ceremony,  he  killed  two 
hamstersand  smeared  the  blood  on 
his  arms. 


S.ctiopj  teacher  murdered 

On  the  oiherside  of  the  i 
a  school  teacher  was  murdered 
The  heart,  lungs  and  other  body 
parts  were  found  missing  from  the 
corpse.  All  were  used  in  a  bloody 
sacrifice  to  the  devil. 

Probes  into  Ihese  and  other 
"Salan-relaled"  murders  tend  to 
make  ihe  public  believe  the  Satanic 
elements  are  really  manifestations 
ol  mental  derangement.  In  any 
case,  murders  such  as  Mike 
Newell's  have  caused  Americans  to 
ctosely  examine  the  "Satan  scene  " 

Anton  Szandor  LaVey  is  a  key 
man  in  Salan  oriented  news.  LaVey 
claims  to  be  the  "Black  Pope"  ol 
the  church  ol  Salan.  Any  connec- 
tions between  murders  and  mem- 
bers ol  his  group  are  quickly 
denied 

Satanism  originates  early 

Satanism  originated  ihousands 
ol  years  ago.  Each  country  had  its 
own  god  back  then  and  when 
countries  went  into  war  each  consi- 
dered Ihe  other's  god  as  Satan,  an 
evil  god. 

Today,  some  people  continue  to 
worship  these  o(d  gods  as  Satan. 
They  worship  them  not  as  evil,  but 
as  good  gods  in  as  much  the  same 
way  they  were  worshipped  in  Ihe 
past.  They  are  sincere  Salan 
worshippers. 

LaVey's  lollowers  are  entirely  dil- 
lerent.  They  worship  Salan  because 
they  believe  he  is  evil  Their  religion 
involves  a  warped  kind  oi  worship, 
wilh  mixed  reasoning. 

V/hen  LaVey  founded  his  church 
in  1966,  he  and  his  disciples  staged 
a  black  wedding  rite  thai  leatured 
a  nude  woman  stretched  out  on  the 


alter  lor  a  sinister  effect.  Thus,  a 
classic  example  of  this  type  ol 
Satanism 
Cult  has  bond 

Satanistic  ceremonies  ana 
"Black  Masses"  include  as  much 
sex,  nudity,  and  vulgarity  as  possi- 
ble. The  meetings,  therelore,  are 
more  "lun"  than  religous.  Ttie  cult 
feels  no  true  spiritual  devotions; 
their  bond  is  a  pure  physical  one 

The  whole  Satanistic  game 
throwsforlhamysterriousait  Many 


Americans  including  thousands  of 
middle-class  and  university-level 
adults  are  dabbling  with  witchcraft, 
Satanism,  and  the  like.  It  may.b^ 
a  fad,  but  there  could  be  more  to 
it. 

LaVey  summed  up  the  whole 
situation,  'Satanism  is  developing 
two  circles,  an  elilisl  group,  which 
I  always  intended  my  church  to  be; 
and  the  laddisls.  who  are  becoming 
Satanisis  because  il  is  Ihe  Ihing  to

Footballers  disprove 
grade  average  myth 

"Duh,  pass  me  that  football,  duh." 
The  usual  connotation  for  football  players  prevails  as 
people  constantly  refer  to  them  as  unintelligent.  A  recent 
survey  at  Elmhurst  comparing  football  players'  grades  to 
other  boys'  grades  contradicts  this  myth. 

According  to  Mr.  Douglas  Spencer,  guidance  counselor, 
the  overall  average  of  the  senior  football  players  was  82.82. 
The  grade  average  of  20  random  boys  was  82.96.  just  slightly 
over  the  athlete's  average. 

Throughout  the  season,  football  players  practiced  two 
hours  every  night  after  school.  This  totals  more  than  100 
hours,  not  including  the  four-hour  daily  summer  sessions. 
In  100  hours  the  average  student  could  write  ten  term 
papers,  complete  120  homework  assignments  or  read  20 
novels.  Football  players  and  all  other  athletes  must  learn 
to  concentrate  their  efforts  on  school  work  as  their  time 
is  limited. 

Each  football  player  is  assigned  a  play  book  which  con- 
tains approximately  TOO  passing  and  running  plays.  These 
plays  may  also  have  numerous  variations.  They  are  required 
to  learn  all  plays  and  the  positions  they  assume  for  each. 
Still  these  athletes  manage  to  maintain  C-  averages. 
If  they  were  paid  for  their  time  according  to  minimum 
wages,  each  would  receive  Si  60.00  plus  S28.80  for  games. 
Football  is  not  only  mental  concentration  but  also  physi- 
cal concentration.  Practices  consist  of  a  15-minute 
warming-up  period,  20  minutes  for  scrimmaging.  Some  stu- 
dents may  find  it  difficult  to  grasp  the  concept  of  physical 
and  mental  development  during  the  football  season,  but 
football  players  are  not  dumb. 


MIA's-POW's  wait  return 


by  Jayne  Langmeyer 

With  an  end  to  Ihe  Viet  Nam  conllict  seemingly  nearer, 
over  1,000  lamilies  will  wait  lor  their  husbands,  fathers 
and  sons  As  ol  November,  543  prisoners  ol  war  and  1,271 
men  missing  in  action  have  loved  ones  waiting  at  home 
wondering  .1  Ihey  will  ever  see  their  "hero"  again, 

An  uncertainty  prevails  in  the  lives  of  these  people  due 
'0  inadequate  reports  trom  the  North  Vietnamese.  The 
Geneva  Convetion,  signed  by  the  North  Vietnamese  in 
'957,  states  minimum  standards  to  be  followed  dealing 
with  prisoners  ol  war 

The  enemy  believes  this  convention  does  not  pertain 
lo  Ihe  conflict  in  the  fvllddle  East  because  a  declaration 
0'  war  has  not  been  made  by  at  least  one  of  Ihe  parlies 
involved-  However,  it  does  state  —  "The  present  conven- 
tion shall  apply  lo  all  cases  of  declared  war  or  any  olher 
^rmed  conllict  which  may  arise  between  two  or  more  ol 
Ihe  parlies,  even  il  the  slate  ol  war  Is  not  recognized  by 
one  of  them." 
Prisoners  receive  mistreatment 

There  are  several  examples  ol  mistreatment  to  pris- 
oners. ROW'S  are  paraded  through  streets  lorced  lo  make 
slalemenis  when  Ihe  Geneva  Convention  stales  prisoners 


must  be  humanly  treated  and  protected  against  acts  of 
violence  or  intimidation  and  against  insults  and  public 
curiosity 

They  are  also  not  to  be  held  in  close  confinement  while 
many  men  have  been  held  in  solitary  confinement  for 
years.  They  are  guaranteed  a  minimum  of  two  letters  and 
four  cards  a  month  while  the  average  prisoner  is  allowed 
two  or  three  letlers  a  year. 

A  complete  and  accurate  list  ol  ail  prisoners  is  supposed 
to  be  made  available  although  one  has  never  been  pro- 
duced by  the  North  Vietnamese  These  are  just  a  lew  of 
the  violations  ol  Ihe  Geneva  Convention  in  Ihe  Viet  Nam 
conllict.  The  hope  ot  many  lamilies  have  been  darkened 
by  this  inlringemeni  ol  ttie  rules. 
Families  eliminate  crimes 

Steps  have  been  taken  to  correct  these  crimes.  Many 
people  have  worked  to  produce  results  lor  the  dilemma 
ol  prisoners  ol  war  A  key  ligure  in  Ihe  battle  is  Valerie 
Kushner.  Her  husband  was  a  llighl  surgeon  and  was  cap- 
tured live  years  ago.  She  diligently  campaigned  lor  George 
McGovern.  leeling  his  Viet  Nam  policy  would  aid  their 
cause.  She  seconded  his  nomination  at  the  Democratic 
convention  at  Miami  last  summer. 


The  Department  ot  Defense  has  developed  a  task  torce 
design?wto  rehabilitate  the  returning  men  prior  to  their 
return  lo  the  States  and  the  reunion  with  their  families. 
"Operation  Egress  Recap"  has  studied  the  problems 
which  will  be  encountered  upon  a  return  They  will  be 
given  a  cram  course  on  currenl  events  and  even  history 
from  the  years  they  were  prisoners  Thorough  physical 
exams  will  be  required  and  private  liles  will  be  available 
including  family  pictures,  birth  and  marriage  information, 
etc. 
Delerminallon  brings  results 

Strong  will  ana  oeterminalion  have  brought  these 
results  A  desire  to  achieve  an  end  has  brought  some  light 
lo  the  dark  hopes  of  lonely  Americans 

Some  prisoners  have  been  kept  in  good  health  and  have 
been  used  tn  interviews  and  lilms  lo  illustrate  Hanoi's 
■humanitarianism"  This  may  either  be  a  slep  forward  or 
old  lashioned  propaganda.  Whichever,  hope  cannot  be 
destroyed  and  lorgotlen.  If  we  lorget  those  men  in  the 
Viet  Nam  prison  camps,  what  hope  will  they  ever  have? 

"The  Voice  "  is  a  monthly  newspaper  dedicated  to  POWs

Trojans  win 
at  Muncie 


Three  Trojan  football  players  were  named 
to  the  1972  All-City  Football  Team  last 
weekend.  Receiving  recognition  for  their 
fine  play  were  defensive  halfback  Bob 
Paschall,  defensive  lineman  Murray  Weber 
and  offensive  tackle  John  Hoard-  Paschall 
also  received  the  honor  last  year  to  become 
the  first  Trojan  football  player  to  be  named 
to  the  All-City  team  twice.  Hoard  was  one 
of  five  members  of  the  All-City  squad  to  be 
voted  in  unanimously. 

"I  was  surprised  when  I  heard  I  was 
elected  to  the  All-City  football  team.  I 
thought  I  wasn't  going  to  get  it."  stated  Bob. 
"Football  has  in  some  ways  helped  me  get 
over  the  hard  times  by  releasing  the  pres- 
sure of  everyday  life,"  he  added. 

Bob  feels  football  has  helped  him  a  great 
deal  and  the  time  spent  was  worth  it.  Bob 
has  no  definite  plans  about  which  college 
he  will  attend  but  says  he  would  like  to  play 
football  wherever  he  goes. 
Lineman  reaches  goal 

■  I  was  happy  when  I  found  out  I  was 
named  to  the  All-City  team.  It  was  something 
I  dreamed  about  in  ninth  grade  and  then 
I  set  It  as  a  goal,"  stated  Murray.  He  says 


that  football  has  helped  him  both  mentally 
and  physically  and  it  gives  him  something 
to  do-  He  feels  most  of  his  success  is  due 
to  Mr.  Welborn's  coaching  in  his  sophomore 
and  junior  years. 

Murray  stated,  "All  the  hard  work,  running 
and  lifting  weights  has  paid  off  so  far."  He 
is  presently  waiting  for  letters  from  colleges 
about  football. 

"I  was  happy  when  I  heard  I  was  named 
to  the  All-City  team  but  I  felt  other  members 
of  the  team  deserved  recognition  also.  If  we 
v;ould  have  won  the  city  championship 
more  players  from  Elmhurst  would  have 
made  it,"  said  John. 
Football  increases  strength 

He  believes  football  has  increased  his 
physical  strength  and  coordination.  He  has 
enjoyed  playing  for  Elmhurst  and  can 
remember  a  lot  of  good  times.  John  com- 
mented, "The  time  I  spent  preparing  for 
football  paid  off  and  I  am  glad  I  spent  the 
time.  Any  time  spent  in  preparation  for  any- 
thing is  never  wasted." 

John  says  he  will  go  to  the  school  that 
is  best  academically  suited  for  him  and  wilt 
go  out  for  the  football  team. 


Junior  sieve  Ransom  tipped  m  a 
missed  free  throw  by  senior  John 
Adams  to  give  Elmhurst  a  60-55  win 
over  Muncie  South  Side  in  the  firsi 
game  ot  Itie  season.  The  Rebels 
were  previously  2-0  before  the  set- 
back in  their  own  gym. 

The  Troians  led  by  a  score  of  IT- 
IS  at  the  end  ot  ihe  lirst  quarter. 
but  were  only  able  lo  score  two 
points  in  Ihe  first  four  minutes  of 
Ihe  second  quarter.  However  they 
were  able  to  come  back  due  to 
some  fine  outside  shooting  by 
juniors  Donald  Taylor  and  Steve 
Ransom,  finding  themselves  down 
by  only  one  point  at  Ihe  halt. 
Muncie  takes  lead 

The  enthusiastic  Muncie  lans  had 
plenty  to  veil  about  as  their  team 
buillup  an  eighlpoinl  lead  with  5:19 
left  in  the  game.  Then  coach  Ken 
Eytchesons  boys  went  to  an  agg- 
ressive zone  press  upsetting  Ihe 
balanced  attack  of  South  Side.  With 
the  press  the  Trojans  commuted 
numerous  fouls,  however  the 
Rebels  were  unable  to  convert  them 
into  poinis  as  they  missed  five  foul 
shots  in  a  row  in  Ihe  last  quarter 
Elmhurst  was  able  lo  tie  up  the 
game  at  51  apiece  with  2.29  left  in 
Ihe  game  and  never  fell  behind  after 
that  point.  Behind  53-55  with  l:lO 
lelt  in  the  game,  Muncie  called  a 
time  out  then  went  into  theii  own 
variation  of  the  press  However,  the 
well-coached  Trojans  perlormed 
like  a  seasoned  team  as  Ransom 
and  Taylor  broke  through  Ihe  press 
for  easy  lay  ups, 

Ahead  57-55  v/ith  20  seconds  left 
John  Adams  went  lo  the  charity 
stripe  on  a  charging  loul.  He  made 
the  first  shot  then  missed  the 
bonus,  but  Ransom  was  able  to  gel 
a  tip  in  on  Ihe  rebound  to  Imish  the 
scoring  al  60-55 
Ransom  leads  scoring 

Steve  Ransom  led  the  scoring  for 
Elmhurst  with  21  poinis  13  of  which 
were  in  the  second  half  Donald 
Taylor  was  second  wilh  15  points, 
lunior  Kevin  Howell  and  John 
Adams  each  had  eight.  Senior  Bill 
Newharl  contributed  four  points  lo 
the  winning  cause  while  seniors

man  squad  to  offsel  the  inexperi- 
ence which  is  a  result  of  the  loss 
ol  nine  starters  from  last  year's

The  1972-73  Trojan  maimen  will 
be  trying  to  improve  last  year's  10-2

pects for  an  exceHenl  reserve  team 
look  good  Coach  Wellborn  reports

condition  so  far  and  we  will  rely 
upon  speed  and  quickness  Ihis  year 
more  than  in  the  pasi, '  said  Coach 
Wellborn.  Wilh  teams  like

Art  classes  work 
for  holiday  mood 


Oh  no! 


Senior  Rita  Rondot  helps  Youth  Council  members  decorate  the 
courtyard  tree  for  the  holiday  season.  Students  worked  on  the 
Christmas  tree  Tuesday  morning.  Youth  Council  still  welcomes 
members  from  all  classes  and  will  announce  after  school  meetings. 


Art  classes  have  prepared 
Christmas  decorations  in  the  past 
weeks  to  arouse  a  festive  holiday 
mood  in  Elmhurst  students,  Five 
beginning  art  classes  have 
worked  on  projects  for  the 
cafeteria  windows  under  the 
direction  of  instructor  Mr.  Dale 
Pequinot. 

Students  were  to  plan  an  idea  for 
decorations.  Previously  one  plan  was  cho- 
sen but  this  year  an  idea  was  developed 
into  the  ornaments  which  will  be  dis- 
played. 

Students  saw  figures 

Giant  figures  wilt  be  hung  with  wire  this 
weel<.  They  will  be  constructed  of 
masonile  which  were  sawed  by  the  male 
students.  Both  sides  of  the  figures  will  be 
painted  so  they  can  be  viewed  from  inside 
the  cafeteria  or  in  the  hall.  Thirteen  differ- 
ent designs  will  be  used. 

The  theatre  arts  class  has  constructed 
decorations  for  the  choir  and  orchestra 
concerts  this  Chrislman  season.  Two 
Christmas  trees  will  be  hung  from  the 
overhead  stage  and  will  be  decorated  with 
ultraviolet  ornaments.  Stars  and  snow- 
flakes  will  be  surrounding  the  flourescent 
trees  The  snowflakedesigns  were  created 


Y-teens  sponsor  project 


Collections  tor  Elmhurst  s  annual  fwliss

junior  and  senior  students.  General 
chairman  senior  Dave  Butler  exlaining 
the  reasons  for  this  change  com- 
mented, "In  past  years  juniors  have 
conne  into  the  prom  cold  with  very 
little  experience.  So,  this  year  seniors 
who  helped  last  year  will  work  hoping 
their  experience  can  be  used  to  our 
benefit." 
Event  held  May  13 

The  formal  event  will  be  held  May 
13  at  Hospitality  Inn.  The  possibility 
of  a  combination  dinner-prom  ticket  is 
being  considered  since  the  price  of  the 
room  rent  is  free  if  125  dinner  tickets 
are  sold.  "We  would  then  only  be 
charged  for  our  food  and  drinks," 
Dave  said. 

"Tickets  have  to  pay  for  the  prom 
completely,"  Dave  continued,  "Last 
year  we  went  in  debt  and  school  funds 
are  limited  this  year."  If  enough 
tickets  are  sold,  the  cost  of  the  prom 
will  be  decreased,  "We  plan  on  hand-

This  statement  tends  -» -^ -;s^  ^  S;a?'^"?n^,:ma^r  b^,  and

to  intenlionally  wound  her  own  body  she 

ric  care. 

Why  should  she  be  allowed  to  harr 
human  merely  because  it  is  her  perogalive? 

There  are  only  isolated  instances  m  which  an 
abortion  would  be  justifiable.  In  (he  case  of  rape, 
of  almost  certain  evidence  the  child  would  be 
extremely  deformed  or  retarded  and  if  the  mother  s 
life  was  in  danger  Some  assume  an  abortion  would 
be  a  lavor  to  a  child  rather  than  bringing  it  into 
a  ghetto  life  where  chance  for  success  is  doubtlul. 
However,  what  if  he  was  the  child  that  would  have 
succeeded  or  would  have  provided  a  change  lor 
us'  These  possibililies  cannot  be  avoided 

Methods  used  for  aborting  a  child  are  crude  and 
rustic.  One  technique  is  the  dilalion  and  curettage 
in  which  a  sharp  instrument  is  inserted  into  the 
womb  ol  the  mother  and  cuts  the  baby  into  small 
pieces  and  scrapes  them  oul.  This  method  .s  being 
replaced  by  the  "baby  scrambler."  A  very  powerful 
vacuum  is  used  to  (ear  the  baby  from  the  walls  of 
the  uterus  .  ^u    <  . 

Is  an  abortion  considered  murder?  "No!  The  felus 
will  never  know  if  it  was  alive  or  not"  Bui  if  a  one. 
two  or  three  monlh  old  baby  was  killed,  he  wouldn't 
know  if  he  was  alive  either  If  someone  killed  him, 
the  murderer  would  be  severly  punished. 

Life  was  considered  sacred  but.  today  society 
seems  to  disregard  this.  Wilh  an  overwhelming 
amount  of  crime,  rape  and  murder,  legalization  of 
abortion  would  increase  this  disrespect  for  human 
life.  Steps  must  be  taken  to  avoid  this  trend. 

Another  argument  used  againsi  doortion,  espe- 
cially by  the  Roman  Catholic  Church,  is  the  fact 
God  creates  life  to  the  image  and  likeness  of  Him- 
self. How  can  man  lake  it  upon  himself  lo  destroy 
that  life?  It  is  life  at  conception  and  destruction 
of  that  life  would  bemurderand  would  bedestroying 
another  human  being's  chance  to  live. 

The  subject  concerning  us  may  not  directly  be 
the  abortion  but  the  moral  question  behind  it  When 
is  murder  acceptable  and  when  is  it  punishable? 
Why  do  some  women  who  have  undergone  an  abor- 
tion experience  guilt  leelings  afterwards'' 

If  every  woman  asked  herself  before  her  baby  was 
aborted.  "Do  God's  feelings  coincide  wilh  mine? 
Does  he  believe  I  should  abort  my  baby?" 

God  would  probably  disagree  wilh  her.  He  creates 
life  and  he  is  Ihe  only  one  who  has  the  authority 
to  destroy  ill

The  fourteenth  amendment  to  the  Conslilution  stales  laws  are  forbidden  to  abridge 
individual  rights.  Bui  where  does  life  begin  and  a  human  become  an  individual?  This 
seems  to  be  Ihe  major  question  arising  as  aborlion  reform  is  considered  by  couits 
ol  law. 

Doctors  throughout  the  world  remain  uncertain  as  to  precisely  when  life  begins. 
Some  maintain  human  life  begins  upon  conception,  some  say  in  the  (elus  and  still 
others  aegue  a  human  does  not  actually  live  until  birlh. 

All  seem  lo  dgree,  nowever,  upon  the  fact  that 
there  is  an  unknown  area  where  life  technically  and 
morally  begins

In  repeated  court  cases  the  mother  has  been 
granted  the  right  to  an  abortion    Still  people  cry. 
Ai  "She  hasn't  the  right!"  Obviouslv  the  woman  feels 

II  an  abortion  is  necessary  for  menial,  physical  or 

!|  monetary  reasons.  She  also  has  a  right  lo  life,  her 

I!  own  life,  to  live  as  she  wishes. 

JS_  Menially  a  woman  may  not  be  capable  ol  giving 

birlh.  especially  Ihose  who  are  unwed.  Nine  months 
of  pregnancy  could  have  a  disasterous  elfect  on 
a  young  gir!  when  she  is  striving  to  be  accepted 
socially  Society  rejects  unwed  mothefs  much  the 
same  way  it  rejects  freed  convicts.  Ivlistrust.  with- 
drawal and  depression  could  become  imbedded  in 
her  mind  and  cropple  mental  growth. 
Doctors  save  mothers 

Pregnancy  may  injure  a  woman  physically.  Often 
a  woman  does  not  have  the  strength,  capacity  or 
body  structure  to  successfully  give  birth.  In  this  case 
doctors  seldom  hesitate  to  give  an  aborlion  as  they 
generally  believe  in  saving  the  mother  before  the 
unborn 

Too  often  abortions  are  necessary  because  family 
budgets  cannot  withstand  a  child  This  is  common 
among  lower  class  families  where  where  birth  con- 
trol is  also  above  expenses 
Women  seek  solutions 

Each  year,  nearly  one  million  abortions  are  per- 
formed legally  in  Ihe  U.S.  and  an  unaccourntable 
number  are  performed  illegally.  The  illegal  abor- 
lions  set  up  traps  for  desperate  young  women  in 
which  to  fatl.  Outrageously  priced,  the  operations 
offer  solutions  lo  a  horrifying   pr  ,olem' 

Although  legal  clinics  are  set  up  in  live  states 
across  the  country,  rackets  continue  to  bring  in 
thousands  of  extra  dollars  annually  lo  daring  doc- 
tors and  those  who  are  simply  daring. 

Thousands  ol  other  women  find  it  impossible  to 
travel  great  distances  for  an  aborlion  and  attempt 
lo  take  care  of  the  matler  themselves.  In  most  cases, 
this  abruptly  ends  in  death  for  the  unborn  and  the 
molher.  If  clinics  were  easily  contacted  and  abor- 
tions readily  available,  these  deaths  and  others 
caused  by  so-called  doctors  could  be  avoided,  Lite 
itself  IS  at  stake  here  but  consider  whose  life. 


Religous  cults  expand 


Facilities  indicate 
inadequate  staffing 

Large,  spacious  and  organizeid  in  appearance,  the  room's 
dark  wood  trim  provided  a  sharp  contrast  to  the  paler  hue 
of  the  wails.  Red  carpet  covered  the  floor  and  spiral  stair- 
cases rose  into  the  air.  leading  to  a  large  open  room  filled 
with  desks  and  tables.  Thousands  of  books  sat  untouched 
on  their  shelves  as  the  lecture  hall,  conference  rooms  and 
study  booths  lay  empty  awaiting  use. 

Describing  the  library  at  Wayne  High  School,  scenes 
such  as  this  occur  daily  between  classes.  This  library  is 
actually  a  media  center,  a  resource  department  which  uses 
audio-visual  study  materials  to  supplement  the  traditional 
books  and  magazines. 

Elmhursfs  library,  like  all  Fort  Wayne  high  school  lib- 
raries, is  scheduled  to  become  a  media  center.  Unfor- 
tunately Elmhurst  is  last  on  the  improvement  list.  The  order 
of  schools  on  this  work  list  cannot  be  changed. 

The  efficiency  with  which  the  library  is  run  needs  to  be 
changed.  In  a  recent  advance  survey  of  Fort  Wayne  libraries, 
one  point  was  made  clear  by  all  high  school  librarians, 
the  libraries  are  understaffed. 

Elmhursfs  library  has  twice  the  student  help  of  any  high 
school  library,  yet  its  librarian  has,  as  one  librarian  put 
It.  "changed  from  an  underpaid  librarian  to  a  high-priced 
clerical  worker  "  Another  librarian  commented  "One  lib- 
rarian is  needed  for  every  200  students."  Most  schools  make 
do  with  one  per  thousand. 

The  downtown  school  administration  can  supply  the  man- 
power necessary  to  properly  run  the  library.  We  don't  mind 
waitint  for  the  media  center,  but  let's  at  least  use  the  library 
we  ha\e  to  the  best  of  its  ability.

Aside  from  salanism,  described 
in  last  week's  article.  Ihere  are  a 
number  of  unusual  forms  of  wor- 
ship rising  into  the  public  view.  One 
ol  the  more  prominant  ones  being 
the  matter  ol  drug  worship. 

Not  so  simple  as  the  name 
implies,  it  can  be  divided  into 
several  catagories,  ghough  many  of 
these  overlap.  In  the  past  the  only 
drug  worships  in  the  Americas  were 
first  the  sacred  mushrooms  of  cer- 
tain Mayan  cults,  and  later,  peyote- 
worship  in  northern  Central  and 
southern  t^orlh  America. 

Liltle  is  known  about  Ihe  Mayan's 
mushrooms  except  they  figured  in 
ceremonies  mvolvmg  religious  ecs- 
lacy.  In  North  America,  the  Indians 
say  Ihe  spirit  of  the  peyote  led  Ihem 
to  sites  ol  their  future  cities  and  out- 
lined codes  of  living  and  worship. 
Peyote  presents  Illusions 

This  latter  would  seem  lo  indicate 
ihat  peyote  unlocked  ihe  doors  to 
the  unconscious  mind,  which 
would  be  possessed  of  greater 
mtelligence  and  organization  than 
me  conscious  mind    This  would 


give  the  illusion  of  heavenly  gui- 
dance 

Today,  quite  a  number  of  drug 
cults  exist,  both  wise  and  ignorant. 
Some  preach  that  through  repeated 
use  ot  L  S  0  it  is  possible  lo  see 
the  true  God  and  Ihe  secrets  behind 
existance.  LSD  can  produce  tem- 
porary paranoia.  This  is  not  just  a 
lype  of  fear,  but  something  more 
complex. 

Paranoia  is  not  good  or  bad, 
though  the  bad  side  is  more  often 
emphasized  and  made  known.  In 
paranoia,  a  person  sees  everything 
he  IS  exposed  to  as  fitting  into  some 
supreme  pattern. 
Pattern  explains  harmony 

This  IS  either  interpreted  as  a  uni- 
versal conspiracy  againsi  him.  a 
perfect  pattern  that  expalins  Ihe 
harmony  of  all  forces,  or  the  perfec- 
tion ol  God's  work.  So,  either  their 
basis  of  worship  is  a  state  of  mind 
wholly  illusionary,  or  perhaps  the 
revelations  are  the  same  as  those 
of  the  saints  in  biblical  times. 
Users  spealt  lelepaifiicaliy 

Slill  other  cults  say  through  the 
use  of  drugs  they  can  speak  to  one 


another  telepathically.  Tests  made 
in  the  United  States  and  Russia 
alike  show  that  the  presence  of 
drugs  neither  amiifies  nor  cuts 
down  the  doubtful  faculties  of 
extrasensory  perception. 

Finally.  Ihere  are  groups  claiming 
each  drug  contains  a  certain  god, 
that  these  gods  can  be  seen  or 
spoken  with  by  their  use.  By  the 
descriptions  ot  these  gods,  we  see 
Ihey  correspond  lo  certain  gods  of 
Egyptian  and  Greek  lore.  The  opin- 
ion ol  psychologists  is  that;  first, 
drugs  do  not  contain  gods,  heavens 
or  even  highs,  but  unlock  the  parts 
of  the  mind  thai  do.  Secondly,  the 
gods  seen  are  already  present  in 
every  mind  in  the  unconscious. 
These  gods,  or  archetypes  as  Freud 
and  Jung  called  them,  are  sort  of 
ancestral  memory  passed  on  from 
generation  to  generation  geneti- 
cally 

f^orallinlentsand  purposes  these 
gods  are  alive  Strangely  enough, 
the  psychologist  and  drug  users 
have  no  disputes  on  this  point.

.4 1  bum  reflects  genius 

by  Craig  Masters  ^^ 


This  unusual  release  by  Warner  Bros, 
based  on  the  controversial  ultra-violent 
movie  of  the  same  name,  must  be  one  of 
the  best  sound  track  albums  this  year. 

The  great  moogist.  Walter  Carlos,  whose 
credits  include  the  best  selling  classical 
record  Swilched-On-Bach  and  The  Well- 
Tempered  Synthesizer,  wrote  most  of  the 
arrangements  for  the  album  and  does  an 
astounding  job  at  the  keyboard  of  his  synth- 
esizer. 

One  of  the  most  interesting  facts  about 
this  sound  track  is  the  order  and  type  of 
music  that  is  used.  For  the  title  song,  an 
arrangement  of  the  funeral  music  from 
Queen  Marys  funeral  was  utilized. 
Overture  Illustrates  scene 
William  Tell  Overture  is  played  to  illustrate 


An  abridged  and  fast  paced  version  of  the 
a  fast  moving  bedroom  scene.  To  add  to 
the  humor  of  another  scene  in  the  movie, 
a  Deutsche  Grammophon  orchestral 
recording  of  Pomp  and  Circumstance  is 
used. 

A  few  more  classical  selections  are 
included  as  the  lead  actor  in  the  movie,  Alex 
loved  the  works  of  Beethoven,  These 
include  the  Fourth  Ivlovement  from  the  Ninth 
Symphony  (commonly  known  as  *A  Song 
Of  Joy)  which  isan  exceptional  accomplish- 
ment for  one  man  at  a  keyboard,  and  the 
Second  Ivlovement  from  the  Ninth, 

And  as  a  humorous  attribute  to  the  final 
scene,  Gene  Kelly  sings  Im  Singin  In  The 
Rain'  as  the  curtains  close.

I'  you  re  naving  trouble  catching 
luniof  Neil  Bussard  and  sopho- 
mores Ed  Peters  and  Gary  Baker  al 
home,  simply  tune  in  to  radio  sta- 
tion WLYV  lo  catch  these  young 
men  displaying  their  lalenis  as  disc 
jockeys. 

These  boys,  along  with  seniors 
Nancy  Eckenbarger  and  Becky 
Young,  are  involved  with  the  busi- 
ness world  ol  Junior  Achievement 
The  nameof  their  company  IS  Radio 
1-  Both  Becky  and  Nancy  have  had 
experience  in  J  A,  and  as  Nancy 
says,  "knew  what  il  was  all  about." 

Those  involved  with  the  actual 
recording  in  the  studio  and  the 
other  members  in  the  J.A  building 
meet  every  IVIonday  night  The  boys 
are  now  in  the  process  of  recording 
the  minimum  of  sixteen  shovifs  to 
beshown  throughout  the  year  every 
Sunday  morning  at  eleven. 

Students  make  acquaintances 

JVhen  asked  why  they  had  gotten 
involved  with  J, A.,  all  five  agreed 
that  one  of  their  main  mterests  was 
to  meet  new  people.  "A  neighbor 
informed  me  of  J.A.,'  says  Becky, 
"and  took  me  to  a  meeting  two 
vears  ago.  At  the  time  I  had  other 
interests,  but  last  year  I  became 
more  interested  in  J.A,  and  very 
involved.'  Becky,  along  with  want- 
ing to  make  new  aquainlances,  felt 
this  was  a  start  in  getting  to  know 
a  little  bit  about  the  world  ot  busi- 
ness. 

Nancy,  on  the  other  hand,  fell  into 
the  swing  of  things  after  her  first 
encounterwithJ  A.  lastyear  Nancy 
and  Becky  work  with  getting  adver- 
tisements and  commercials  for  the 
shows, 

"I  find  it  to  be  very  competitive." 
said  Nancy,  "and  it  seems  a  lot  of 
people  have  trouble  getting  used  to 
the  idea  of  a  young  person  being 
involved  with  radio  advertising," 

Becky  gains  composure 

Becky,  after  her  experience  with 
selling  commercials  feels  she  has 
gained  more  composure  in  talking 
with  people,

Winter  is  fiere  again  and  snow- 
mobiling will  soon  be  a  sport  spark- 
ing interest  to  the  winter  people. 
Although  not  very  old,  snowmobi- 
ling has  become  increasingly 
popular  since  its  birth  in  the  60's. 
Snowmobiling  is  a  sport  for 
young  and  old  alike.  If  gliding 
across  glittering  lakes  and  snowy 
whitehills  interests  outdoor  people, 
'hen  snowmobiling  will  make  it  fas- 
cinaling  There  isn't  tnuch  of  a 
problem  of  where  to  take  a  snow- 
mobile as  long  as  there's  snow  and 
people. 

Snowmobiles  are  not  all  for 
pleasure  ndes  either  They  prove 
very  useful  for  the  active  fisherman 
and  hunter  providing  convenient 
transportation  when  traveling  in 
fough  places  and  over  long  dis- 
tances. 
Accidents  apt  lo  Increase 

However,  there  is  also  danger 
myolved  with  using  snowmobiles 
fnis  year  over  two  million  snow- 
n>obiles  will  be  in  use  and  the 
"Umber  ol  accidents  is  apt  to 
jncrease.  Last  year  it  was  reported 
In  Good  Housekeeping  that  164 
deaths  were  caused  by  accidents 
involving  snowmobiles. 

Snowmobilers  are  warned  to  lol- 
lop certain  safety  rules  which  are. 


Always  wear  warm  waterproof 
clothing, 

2  Follow  marked  trails  and  don't 
go  off  in  the  wilderness 

3,  Be  sure  you  can  walk  long  dis- 
tances if  your  machine  breaks 
down. 

4,  If  the  weather  worsens,  turn 
back. 

5,  Bring  goggles  with  colored 
lenses  in  case  of  bright  weather. 

Snowmobiling  is  alot  ol  fun  and 
it  is  now  enioyed  in  many  northern 
parts  of  America.  It  has  become 
another  o(  the  many  increasing 
winter  sports  exploring  our  vast 
white  wonderland.

Hold  on!  ^      ^,  ^   , 

Senior  Pat  McDonald  tries  to  sit  out  against  his  South  Side  opponent  here  at  Elmhurst. 
Pat  pinned  his  man  in  the  third  round  of  the  match.  He  also  was  able  to  pin  his  man  at 
Norwell  to  help  with  the  two  Elmhurst  victories  over  Norwell  and  South  Side  last  week. 
Next  week  the  Trojans  have  a  break  in  their  hard  season  with  no  meets  scheduled. 

Wrestlers  whip  Archers 


Elmhursl  got  oft  to  another  winn- 
ing season  in  wrestling  by  defeating 
Nonwell  43-19  last  Tuesday  at  Nor- 
well and  South  Side  51-16  Thursday 
at  home-  The  reserves  followed  up 
witfi  28-24  and  32-8  victories. 

The  young,  inexperienced  "Men 
of  Troy"  combined  tor  five  pins, 
four  of  Ihem  in  a  row,  to  Norweil's 
two.  The  quickesi  pin  of  the  night 
was  by  seniof  Pat  McDonald  as  he 
pinned  his  man  in  52  seconds- 
Junior  Pele  Hill  came  from  behind 
in  Ihe  Ihifd  period  and  pinned  his 
man  in  5:01.  Larry  Watlley.  Bob 
Baker,  and  Tim  Gary  pinned  Iheir 
men  in  105.  3  20  and  3:04  respec- 
tively- 

For  most  ol  Ihe  wrestlers  it  was 
Iheif  firsi  varsity  meet  and  where 
faced  with  the  pressures  of  playing 
at  an  opponents'  gym. 
Crowd  encourages  wrestlers 

The  most  surprising  aspect  of  the 
meet  was  the  crowd.  Considering 
that  the  meet  was  at  Norwell,  which 
is  a  far  drive  from  Elmhurst,  half  of 
the  crowd  were  Elmhurst  backers 
As  our  men  wrestled,  shouts  ol 
encouragement  and  approval  could 
be  heard  as  our  graplers  went  lor 
a  win.  As  the  wrestlers  went  for  a 
pin,  the  crowd  go!  caught  up  in  Ihe 
excitement  and  stomped  their  leet 
while  chanting   "Pin!  Pm!  Pin!" 


by  lorteil  because  South  didn't  have 
a  man  in  his  weight  class  and  John 
Freeman  managed  the  quickest  pin 
of  the  short  season  m  43  seconds 
Junior  Bob  Baker  scored  a  pm  in 
the  second  period  while  junior  Tim 
Gary  and  senior  Pat  McDonald 
pinned  their  men  in  the  final  period 


while  leading  4-11  and  13-0  in 
points  respectively. 

In  the  heavyweight  match  senior 
John  Hoard  pinned  his  man  in  52 
seconds  for  his  first  win  this  season. 

Even  though  the  team  made  their 
share  of  mistakes  the  wrestlers 
show  signs  of  vast  improvement. 


Eirnhurst  became  the  only 
undefeated  basketball  team 
in  Fort  Wayne  after  downing 
Bishop  Luers  48-44  Friday 
and  Pike  69-52  Saturday. 
both  at  home.  The  Trojans 
lost  to  both  of  these  teams 
during  last  year's  season  but 
now  stand  3-0. 

Elmhurst  had  to  come  from  a  nine 
pomi  delicit  at  Ihe  end  of  Ihe  third 
quarler  to  down  Ihe  stubborn 
Knights  However,  the  Trojans  were 
able  to  outscore  Luers  by  a  margin 
of  19-6  in  the  final  period. 
Press  helps  cause 

An  aggressive  full-court  press 
which  netted  the  TfO|ans  several 
steals  and  some  easy  baskets  made 
the  difference  in  the  fourth  period 

Junior  Donald  Taylor  hit  a  free 
throw  and  junior  Steve  Ransom, 
who  played  the  entire  fourth  quarter 
with  four  touts,  added  two  baskets 
from  underneath  Senior  Bob 
Paschall  scored  on  a  lay  up  as  the 
Trojans  pulled  to  within  38-36  with 
6.30  to  play. 

Junior  Romey  Stevens  sank  a 
twenty  footer  with  3  20  left  in  the 
game  to  tie  the  contest  at  42-42. 
Steve  Ransom's  basket  from  close 
range  put  Elmhurst  in  front  to  stay 
with  2:48  to  play  Two  tout  shots 
by  junior  Kevin  Howell  and  one  by 
Taylor  made  it  47-42  with  1  52  to

Freeman  high  scorer 

Larry  Freeman  took  game  honors 
with  18  points  lor  the  Knights.  Don 
Taylor  and  Steve  Ransom  topped 
Elmhurst  with  16  and  11  respec- 
tively. Kevin  Howell  and  Bob 
Paschal  each  had  five  and  John 
Adams  and  Clifford  Davis  followed 
with  4.  Romey  Stevens  contributed 
three  to  the  winning  cause. 

The  contest  was  not  one  display- 
ing basketball  wizardry.  Elmhurst's 
ability  to  rebound  and  commit 
fewer  errors  is  reflected  easily  in  the 
field  goal  attempts  as  the  home 
team  took  75  shots  and  the  visitors 
only  45.  The  Tro|ans  hit  18  for  only 
24  per  cent,  while  Luers  hit  17  of 
45  for  38  per  cent. 

Coach  Eylchesons  cagemen 
sped  lo  a  22-10  first  quarter  lead 
against  visiting  Pike  Township  last 
Saturday  night  and  increased  the 
point  spread  Ihroughboul  the  rest 
of  the  game  lo  win  by  17  points. 
69-52. 

Pike  came  to  life  in  the  second 
quarter  and  matched  Elmhurst 
point  for  point  for  point  to  make  the 
score  39-27  at  halftime.  The  game 
slowed  down  considerably  in  the 
third  quarter  and  the  Trojan  offense 
stalled  and  was  only  able  to  make 
5  points  during  the  period. 

Pike  went  into  a  hall-court  zone 
press  mid-way  through  the  fourth 
quarter,  but  the  press  didn't  effect 
the  Trojans  as  they  scored  25  points 
in  the  final  stanza,  with  senior  Jeff 
Hibbter  getting  scoring  ten. 
Forwards  control  boards 

Juniors  Steve  Ransom  and  Kevin 
Howell  gave  an  excellent  rebound- 
ing exhibition  as  they  grabbed  17 
and  1 5  rebounds,  respectively.  Both 
players  have  been  very  consistanl 
so  far  this  season,  proving  to  be  the 
main  stays  in  the  Trojan  scoring 
attack  along  with  junior  Don  Taylor. 
Ransom  and  Howe'  had  14  points 
each  while  Taylor  poured  in  17 

Seniors  John  Adams  and  Bob 
Paschall  both  contributed  3  pomi; 
to  the  Trojan  cause  while  jun  ; 
Romey  Stephens  added  6,

Girls  may  participate  with  boys  in 
inlerscholastic  high  school  non- 
contact  sports  such  as  golf,  track, 
tennis,  swimming  and  gymnastics 
in  Indiana,  according  to  a  ruling 
Monday  by  the  Indiana  Supreme 
Court. 

The  high  court  divided  3-2  in 
striking  down  the  rule  of  the  Indiana 
High  School  Athletic  Association  as 
unconstitutional,  both  by  the  U.S. 
and  Indiana  Constitutions, 

The  reversal  came  in  the  case  of 
Miss  Johnell  Haas,  who  qualified  as 
a  member  of  the  South  Bend  Riley 
17-5  "golf  team,  but  was  denied  the 
opportunity  to  play  in  interscholas- 
lic  team  competition  because  o!  the 
IHSAA  rule. 
Coach  sees  problems 

Elmhurst  golf  coach  Nick  Werling 
termed  the  ruling  as  'ridiculous", 
but  quickly  added  that  he  would 
abide  by  the  ruling  and  allow  girls 
to  compete  without  prejudice,  Mr 
Werling  also  foresees  the  elimina- 
tion of  girls  sports  because  with  the 
ruling  boys  could  now  play  on  girls 
teams. 

Junior  Dave  Huffman,  the  only 
returning  letierman  lor  the 
Elmhurst  golf  team,  stated  "I  woul- 
dn't mind  having  girls  on  th    (eam. 


but  it  sure  would  be  embarrassing 
to  get  beat  by  a  girl  " 

Justice  Donald  H.  Hunter  said 
that  denying  a  girl  the  right  lo  qual- 
ity for  a  non-contact  high  school 
team  15  a  denial  of  her  right  to  equal 
protection  ol  the  laws  under  the 
state  and  U  S.  Constitutions 

"Due  to  the  apparent  superior 
level  of  athletic  ability  possessed  by 
most  males,  '  wrote  Hunter,  'it  will 
probably  be  difficult  for  most 
females  to  qualify  foi  the  team. 
However,  this  factor  by  itself,  can 
have  no  bearing  upon  the  issue  of 
a  females  right  of  the  opportunity 
to  qualify." 

Chief  Justice  Norman  F  Alerburn 


contended  in  the  minority  opinion 
that  "it  girls  have  a  constitutional 
right  to  play  on  boys  teams,  then 
boys  have  the  same  right  to  play 
on  girl's  teams.  As  a  practical  mat- 
ter, mixed  athletic  teams  would 
result  in  the  practical  elimination  of 
girls  from  all  Ihe  teams  "

Mr.  Glen  Miller's  socialogy 
classes,  under  the  direction  of 
student  teacher  Ms.  Lynn  Pitts, 
are  dealing  with  major  controver- 
sial subjects.  The  five  classes 
have  been  divided  into  panels 
with  each  given  a  particular  sub- 
ject to  present  to  the  class. 

Religion  was  one  of  Ihe  subiects  in 
whJcti  the  students  brought  in  speakers. 
A  minister  expressed  his  views  on  the  cur- 
rent trend  of  fellgion.  The  next  day  the 
students  discussed  why  they  thought 
religion  was  being  replaced  by  other 
worldly  items  and  why  a  continuing  disin- 
terest is  being  expressed.

The  panel  also  read  from  Ihe  Bible  to 
which  the  class  responded.  Drugs,  pre-

Ihe  Bible  and  the  class  interpreted  these 
as  coming  true  today 
Panels  Invite  Speakers 

-The  head  ol  Ihe  Trust  Department  m 
Fort  Wayne  spoke  to  the  class  under  the 
invitation  of  the  welfare  panel  The  drug 
panel  also  had  guest  speaker  Sergeant 
Meeks.  He  is  the  head  of  the  narcotics 
squad  in  Fori  Wayne. 

■The  next  day  the  panel  discussed 
drugs  and  it  look  care  of  some  of  the  pros 
and  cons  of  the  subject,  '  Ms.  Pitls  said 

Woman's  lib  was  presented  with  a  skit 
in  which  the  reverse  approach  was  used 
"The  girls  brought  the  guys  m.  paid, 
helped  them  with  their  chairs  They  even

Students  Discuss  Poverty 

The  poverty  panel  consisted  of  three 
blacksand  three  whites.  "They  had  a  good 
discussion  on  how  the  space  program 
should  be  discontinued  and  the  money 
spent  on  poverly,"  Ms  Pitts  said 

Other  topics  discussed  were  methods 
of  birth  control,  amnesty,  prrsons,  racial 
problems,  abortion,  mercy  killing  and  por- 
nography The  classes  started  their  dis- 
cussions Nov  27  and  will  continue  to  Dec. 
22,  which  will  be  Ms.  Pitts  final  d^y  of 
student  teaching. 

At  tirsi  Ihe  panels  started  kind  of  slow 
because  they  were  afraid  to  voice  their 
opinions.  By  the  end  of  the  period,  we  got 
into  some  heated  discussions."  Ms  Pitls 
explained.  "It's  helped  class  participation 
in  general.  Some  kids  are  finally  talking.  " 
she  concluded.

Purdue  University's  High  School  Legisla- 
tive Assembly  last  Friday  and  Saturday. 

"This  is  the  first  year  the  Bainbridge 
Award  has  been  given.  Senator  Bain- 
bridge died  last  year  ..he's  had  quite  a  bit 
of  achievement  in  this  type  thing  and  at 
Purdue.  Mrs.  Bainbridge  presented  the 
awards  and  she  was  really  fantastic.  " 
Betty  commented. 

Beiiy  entered  a  bill  on  legalizing  gamb- 
ling although  it  didn't  make  it  to  the  house. 
"It  put  special  regulations  on  gambling 
and  the  tax  from  gambling  would  automat- 
ically go  to  education  and  the  school  sys- 
tems." 


Durtng  a  luncneon  Saturday,  Betty  was

of  which  only  two  were  awarded. 

"The  thing  I  really  liked  was  being  able 
to  discuss  and  really  work  out  the  bills 
as  they  were.  I  also  liked  being  able  to 
speak  .1  love  to  get  up  and  argue  and  I 
did  quite  a  bit  ol  it  because  I  disliked  so 
many  of  the  bills."  She  continued,  "So 
many  of  them  had  a  beautiful  ideal  but 
they  weren't  expressed  in  ways  that  would 
make  it  work  out — they  contradicted 
themselves. 

"I  thought  the  whole  thing  was  really 
fun  even  though  I  got  disgusted  a  lot  ol 
limes  All  in  all  though  I  had  a  really  good 
time,"  she  concluded

The  Indiana  Air  National  Guard 
has  the  task  ot  protecting  the  state  ot 
Indiana.  In  Fort  Wayne,  the  job  is 
done  by  the  122nd  Tactical  Fighter 
Wing  flying  the  F-100. 

A  36.000  pound  fighter-bomber, 
the  F-100  IS  equipped  with  four 
20mm  cannon.  36  —  2'''  inch  rockets 
and  can  carry  as  many  as  eight  500 
pound  bombs.  It  can  carry  40  cluster 
twmbs  in  place  of  Ihe  rockets,  guided 
and  heat-seeking  missies  and  napatm. 

Forty-nine  pilots,  each  logging  a 
minimum  ot  100  hoors  a  year,  fly 
these  planes.  Comt»t-ready  condition 
requires   flights    to   Camp   Atterbury 


tot  target  and  dive  bombing  practice 
yearly  physicats  and  testing  in 'sim- 
ulators every  three  months. 

Backing  up  the  pilots  are  appron- 
imately  900  men:  mectianics,  weap- 
ons experts,  cooks  and  administrative 
personnel. 

Alter  every  100  flight  hours  the 
F-100  IS  pulled  into  the  hanger  for  a 
check-up.  Each  fighter  has  us  own 
crew  chief  responsible  for  the  plane's 
operation.  In  the  event  of  mal- 
function,  a  specialist   is   called. 

Every  200  hours  the  engine  is 
pulled  out  and  torn  apart  m  the 
constant  search  for  mechanical  fail- 
ures or  ioreign  objeci  darnage.  A  Vj 
inch  fragment  ot  stone,  if  sucked  into 
Ihe  air  intake,  is  capable  of  destroy- 
ing this  S34.000  engine.  It  is  under- 
standable that  runways  and  ramps  are 
swept  every  few  days. 

Every  60  days  the  20mm  can- 
nons are  removed  to  the  armament 
building  where  they  are  degreased 
and  decarboned  and  checked  before 
being  relubricaled  and  returned.  Para- 
chutes are  also  given  periodic  airings 
and  repacked. 

The  F-lOO's  flying  out  ot  Baer 
Field   were  built  in   1957.  Each  one 


has  approximately  4500  hours  of 
flying  time.  After  this  much  air  lime 
wings  must  constantly  be  checked  for 
stability.  Reinforcement  is  sometimes 
necessary. 

It  IS  the  job  o(  the  secu 
division  to  prevent  tampering  v 
the  aircraft  and  damage  to  the  build- 
intp  or  their  contents.  Identificatioi 
cards  are  made  by  this  division  and  in 
time  ol  war  no  ones  comes  or  goes 
Without  approval 

The  122nd  Tactical  Fighter  Wing 
was  established  m  1947.  It  was  called 
to  active  duty  in  1951  at  the  time  of 
the  Korean  crisis  and  again  in  1961 
when  (rouble  at  the  Berlin  wall 
seemed  imminent. 

A  regular  Air  Force  base  with  the 
same  kind  and  number  of  planes 
would  require  five  limes  as  many  tax 
dollars. 

Six  weeks  of 
military  training  and  10  weeks  of  job 
training  are  required  before  assign- 
ment to  the  base. 

Pilots  must  have  two  years  col- 
let iraining  and  a  six-waek  officer 
l)reparatorv  course,  one  year  pilot 
(raining  and  six  months  gunnery 
school. 


Director  discusses 
art   complex  instore 


by  Nancy  Frebel 

Soon  lo  be  utilized  by  Fort  Wayne  artists  and 
arl  enttiiisiasts.  the  npw  Fine  Arts  complex  will 
house  productions  by  the  Fort  Wayne  Ballet,  Civic 
Theater,  Art  Institute,  Philharmonic  and  other  art 
groups. 

Located  on  Main  Street,  across  from  the  City 
County  building,  the  art  center  consists  of  an 
auditorium,  rehearsal  rooms,  a  ballroom,  an  arl  gal- 
lery, dressing  rooms  and  srx  offices. 

twir.  Ralph  Kohlhoff ,  executive  director  of  the  Fort 
Wayne  Fine  Arts  Foundation,  emphasized  he  wishes 
to  "have  the  building  used  for  the  arts.  It  was 
designed  lor  people  from  Fori  Wayne  to  perlorm 
lor  people  in  the  city." 
Auditorium  Seats  767 

With  only  767  seats,  the  auditorium  is  not  large 
enough  to  accomodate  rock  concerts,  fvtr.  Kohlhnff 


said  the  ideal  place  lor  such  performances  is  the 
Embassy  Theater.  "If  you  pay  big  fees  to  bring  in 
a  group,  you  will  need  large  houses." 

"I  want  (o  keep  it  (Ihe  complex)  lit  up  every  night 
of  the  week  year  round,"  he  commented,  Mr. 
Kohlhoff  hopes  young  people  (rom  all  over  the 
city  will  organize  a  Young  Friends  of  the  Arts  group 
and  make  the  center  its  headquarters.  Anyone 
interested  should  contact  someone  at  the  Fine 
Arts  Foundation. 

He  also  said  if  young  people  in  an  educated  group 
wishes  to  use  the  building,  it  could  be  arranged 
provided  they  call  him  or  Mr.  Michael  Martin,  house- 
stage  manager. 
Rental  Fees  Vary 

The  rental  lor  the  auditorium  and  other  rooms 
IS  figured  on  a  graduated  scale.  For  educational 
groups  such  as  All-City  Orchestra,  there  will  be  no 
fee;  however,  a  fee  will  be  charged  to  commercial 


organizations 

Commenting  on  th-?  price  of  admission  tickets, 
Mr.  Kohlhoff  stated.  "There  will  be  no  difterence 
in  prices.  The  Civic  Theater  is  even  thinking  about 
lowering  their  price  because  the  theater  they  are 
now  using  accomodates  only  250  people. ' 

The  stage  crew  consisting  ol  ^tud^nls  from  the 
Purdue  University  extension  m  Fort  Wayne,  will 
operate  tree  ol  charge  This  way  union  wages  will 
not  have  to  be  payed,    he  added. 

According  to  Mr  Kohlhoft,  the  complex  will  be 
a  combination  ol  modern  and  medieval  architecture 
with  brick  walls  and  arches  Like  a  castle,  it  will 
depend  upon  beautiful  wall  hangings  and  tapestries 
to  warm  it  up.  Architecturally,  it  wilt  be  studied  for 
years,"  he  stated. 

The  24-acre  site  will  be  approximately  Ihe  size 
of  the  proposed  Freimann  Park  although  the  com- 
plex itself  rests  on  only  12  acres.  The  remaining 
acreage  will  be  used  (or  future  additions.  Mr 
Kohlhoff  suggested  an  art  school  or  museum  for 
these  luture  plans. 

The  director  said  a  couple  of  ugly  blocks  have 
been  lorn  down  to  vacate  an  area  for  the  four  million 
dollar  art  center.  *lt  will  definitely  improve  the  dow- 
ntown area  but  the  arl  is  going  to  improve  the  quality 
of  life." 


Committee  begins  plans, 
necessary  arrangements 

Preliminary  prom  arrangements  were  announced 
recently,  many  new  ideas  have  been  implimented  this  year 
to  draw  students. 

Last  year,  the  prom  committee  went  into  debt  with 
expenses  not  covered  by  ticket  sales.  Hoping  to  break  the 
traditional  boredom  of  formal  activity,  this  year's  prom  com- 
mittee has  decided  to  add  a  buffet  dinner. 

Junior  class  president,  Neil  Bussard,  explained,  "We  felt 
we  wanted  to  make  the  prom  more  appealing  to  students 
this  year  so  we  added  the  dinner  preceding  the  formal 
dance."  This  could  possiblyfill  an  otherwise  empty  evening 
and  add  to  a  friendlier  atmosphere. 

The  committee  decided  upon  the  Hospitality  Inn  as  the 
location  tor  the  prom,  on  May  13.  Already  the  committee 
members  have  made  arrangements  for  the  event  which  is 
five  months  away.  Dave  Butler,  general  committee  chair- 
man, said  they  plan  to  hold  several  more  meetings  during 
the  year. 

Also  new  this  year  is  the  change  from  a  junior  prom  to 
a  junior-senior  prom.  This  allows  seniors  to  help  in  the 
arrangements 

Dave  also  explained  that  the  juniors  serving  on  the  prom 
committee  wouldn't  have  to  come  into  it  "cold."  Seniors 
who  worked  last  year  on  the  committee  are  filling  several 
of  the  major  positions  with  juniors  as  co-workers.  This 
allows  those  previously  experienced  to  provide  juniors 
the  necessary  information  for  the  following  year. 

With  cooperation  from  the  student  body,  this  year's  prom 
could  be  more  than  a  useless  social  affair.  It  could  be  an 
enjoyable  function  that  all  students  can  look  forward  to.

Television  instills  fear 


by  Sue  Male 

Television  prohibits  physi- 
cal exercise,  slows  learning 
and  education  and  ruins 
eyesight.  Dangerous  radia- 
tion is  thrown  oft  by  color 
sets  and  now,  television  is 
messing  vyith  our  minds. 


Or  Herbert  Olio,  psychologist, 
said,  "Television  tills  our  minds 
with  misconceptions  of  lile, 
stereotypes  of  people  and  mistrust 
ol  our  fellow  man," 

By  extensive  viewing,  the  public 
avoids  normal  life  situations.  They 
are  subiected  lo  violence  and  fan- 
tasy. In  doing  so,  they  lose  the  abil- 
ity lo  adjust  in  lite  and  distinguish 


between  the  real  and  unreal 

"The  emphasis  on  violence  has 
made  most  people  secretly  lear  that 
any  person  who  acts  even  slightly 
unusual  or  irregular  in  front  of  us 
may  go  berserk  and  commit  murder 
or  maybe  on  us,"  Dr    Otto  stated. 

"The  public  has  become  preoc- 
cupied wilh  violence,  with  the 
neurotic  fear  that  it  may  strike  them 
at  any  time  any  place."  he  added 

An  average  child  has  viewed 
approximately  22,000  hours  of  tele- 
vision  before  he  reaches  his 
eighteenth  birthday.  Included  in 
these  hours  ol  entertainment  are 
continuous  situatioi  of  death  and 
disrespect  for  life  Howmanyyoung 
children  who  play  war  and  outlaws 
realize  the  pain  associated  with  a 
bullet  in  the  siomach  or  the  blasting 
off  of  an  arm  or  leg? 
Advertising  Pressures  Buyer 

Violence  is  not  the  only  damaging 
factor  ol  television  All-important 
advertising  pressures  the  public 
into  buying  Sponsors  convince 
their  audience  they  "need"  their 
product.  In  doing  so,  advertisers 
often  blackmail  young  adults  into 
thmking  they  have  to  buy,  buy,  buy 
to  look  fantastic,  smell  sensuous  or 
to  make  members  of  the  opposite 
sex  become  interested.  Con- 
sequently, if  a  kid  wants  lo  be  "with 
it"  he  IS  forced  to  buy  the  products. 
Media  Instills  Fear 

Television  sells  S2  million  worth 
of  bras  annually  to  nine-year-olds. 
What  better  portrays  the  peer  group 
pressure  and  the  influence  advertis- 
ing has  on  society's  way  of  think- 
ing'' 

Dr  Otto  reflected,  "The  media 
instills  fear  into  the  public  and 
thereby  isolated  and  separates  us 
from  one  another." 


American  values 

Public  tired  of  space? 


by  John  C.  Hoard 

Last  week  Apollo  17  went 
into  space  and  marked  the 
end  of  Lunar  exploration  (for 
this  century,  at  least).  Yet 
with  overtones  of  the  elec- 
tions, unemployment,  peace 
talks  and  Christmas,  how 
many  Americans  bothered 
to  even  vk'atch  the  liftoff? 

Are  Americans  sick  of  space?  Has 
all  the  talk  about  countdowns,  lif- 
toffs. Seas  of  Tranquility, 
splashdowns  and  recoveries  made 
the  American  public  tired  ol  this 
costly  pfoiect? 

Maybe  some  of  the  glamour  has 
been  sapped  from  space  travell 
When  Jules  Verne  wrote  ol  moon 
travel  he  didn't  include  the 
astronomical  amounts  ol  money. 
the  years  ol  preparation  or  the  end- 
less techicalities  involved  in  placing 
man  on  the  moon. 

When  Ihe  late  President  John  F 
Kennedy  announced  the  creation  of 


NASA  and  it's  intended  goals,  a 
euphoric  tide  swept  the  country  as 
conceptions  of    "moon  cities  '  and 

a  convenient  shuttle  service  to  the 
tunas  surface  became  forseeable  in 
the  future.  The  moon  became  an 
outlet  lor  the  overpopulation  ol  the 
earth  and  possibly  an  answer  to  our 
problems  of  food  production 

However  aiter  a  while  It  became 
evident  even  lo  the  layman  that 
space  travel  was  tar  more  com- 
plicated and  far  more  costly  than 
was  first  imagined.  Again  the 
glamour  died  when  America 
became  skeptic  ol  NASA  with  the 
fiery  deaths  of  Astronauts  Roger 
Chalfee,  Virgil  Gnssom,  and 
Edward  White. 

When  we  linally  reached  Ihe 
moon  we  learned  little  more  Ihan 
what  we  already  knew.  The  moon 
IS  hot  on  one  side  and  cold  on  the 
other  side.  Humans  can't  live  on  itie 
moon  because  there's  no  air  or 
water  and  people  can  |ump  higher 
on  the  moon  because  there's  less 
gravity. 


The  expiration  of  moon  travel  for 
the  lime  being  may  represent  the 
mood  of  America  as  well  as  the 
world  Theprobtems  that  are  facing 
us  today  must  be  solved  between 
men  here  on  earth.  If  we  want  lo 
continue  to  leave  here  we  musi  pre- 
serve our  environment,  not  destroy 
it  and  move  to  another  planet.  The 
problems  of  overpopulation  are 
solved  through  birth  control,  urban 
renewal  and  development  ol  our 
other  resources. 

The  argument  of  many  has  been, 
"Why  explore  the  moon  when  we 
can't  even  solve  our  problems  here 
on  earth?"  Maybe  America  will 
make  great  strides  toward  solving 
her  problems  by  the  year  2,000  and 
set  a  forceable  example  lor  the  rest 
of  the  world  to  follow  but  nol  (orce 
Ihe  world  to  follow  her  example. 

It  will  take  a  period  ol  world  peace 
lor  America  to  concentrate  on  her- 
self and  and  getslrighl  When  we 
resume  space  travel  and  it  becomes 
a  reality  for  more  people,  may  it 
come  when  reconstruction  from 
social  evils  is  not  so  evident 


Teenagers  don'l  realize  thai

Merchants  protect 

by  Janet  Bell 

Doing  any  lifting  lately? 
Better  watch  out  because 
store  owners  across  the 
nation  in  large  stores  and 
small  are  staging  a  tough 
new  crackdown  on  shoplif- 
ters. 

Such  devices  being  used  recently 
are  two-way  mirrors,  items  lagged 
with  minatu re  transmitters  that  trig- 
ger an  alarm  as  they  pass  electronic 
Selectors  and  simply  more  alert 
employees. 

Some  merchants  may  lose  up  to 
the  unbelievable  toll  of  S10  million 
a  day  to  shoplifters  This  figure  has 
risen  at  the  rate  of  20'";  a  year  since 
1965  This  is  a  terrible  blow  lo  store 
owners  for  every  S10  worth  of 
merchandise  stolen,  a  store  has  to 
sell  $5,000  worth  to  make  up  for  the 
loss  Some  stores  have  had  to  raise 
prices  considerably  to  compensate 
for  losses. 
Shoplifters  Are  Citizens 

Stunning  to  retailers  ts  the  real 
zaiion  that  many  thieves  are  ord 
nary  citizens  and  not  profession; 
shoplifters  who  walk  out  with  mo^

Nebraska  speedster 
wins  coveted  award 


Johnny  Rogers  of  Neb- 
raska, the  greatest  all- 
purpose  offensive  player  in 
college  football  tiistory, 
overcame  a  heated  editorial- 
campaign  against  his  elec- 
tion to  win  the  1972  Heisman 
Trophy. 

Rogers,  a  triple-threat  wingback 
who  was  the  wheelhorse  of  the 
powerful  Nebraska  offense,  had 
been  ridiculed  in  recent  months  by 
several  columnists  who  sought  to 
deny  him  the  award  because  of  his 
of(-the-tield  problems  with  the  law. 
However,  the  5-(oot-1,  173-pound 
senior  was  an  overwhelming 
choice 
Award  Surprises  Rogers 

"I'm  very  surprised  at  having  won 
the  award,  ■  said  Rogers.  There 
were  times  in  recent  years  when  it 
didn't  seem  like  I  would  get  any- 
thing. At  times  I  didn't  think  I  was 
going  to  play  anymore  because  of 
the  troubles  1  got  into  in  my  earlier 
years.  But  I  lelt  I  overcame  them  and 
did  a  good  ;ob  " 
Statistics  Reveal  Ability 

Recognized  as  one  of  the  most 
electrifying  runners  ever  lo  grace

statistics  can't  be  measured  in 
terms  of  one  thing  but  in  his  overall 
contribution  to  the  Cornhuskers. 

Coach  Bob  Devaney  employed 
Rogers  as  a  rusher,  pass  receiver 
and  running  back  specialist  and  m 
all  phases  he  excelled  This  past 
season  he  rushed  for  267  yards  and 
scored  seven  touchdowns.  Rogers 
also  caught  55  passes  for  eight 
TD's.  averaged  15.8  yards  per  punt 
return  with  two  touchdowns  and 
averaged  16.7  yards  per  kickoff 
return 
Rogers  Gains  Yardage 

His  three-year  all-purpose  offen- 
sive totals  are  the  best  ever  com- 
piled by  a  ma)or  college  player.  He 
gained  5.586  yards,  an  average  of 
164.3  yards  per  game,  during  his 
three  years  and  he  scored  45 
touchdowns. 

Rogers  was  the  winner  in  each 
of  five  sections  ol  the  country  and 
in  winning  the  award  he  becomes 
the  first  player  from  Nebraska  to 
achieve  college  football's  most 
coveted  individual  honor

Grile  explains  policies 


Superintendent  of  Fort  Wayne 
Community  Schools  Lester  Grile  has 
issued  a  policy  of  school  closing  due 
to  poor  weather  conditions. 

Decisions  for  closing  schools  are 
made  between  4  and  Sam.  Condi- 
tions are  likely  to  improve  by  the  time 
school  is  scheduled  to  begin. 

The  following  policies  are  used  to 
make  the  decision,  which  has  been 
approved  by  the  Board  of  School 
Trustees 

1.  The  schools  shall  be  closed 
when  the  Mayor  of  the  City  of  Fort 
Wayne  decalres  a  city-wide  emer- 
gency because  o(  weather  or  road 
conditions. 

2.  The  Superintendent  is  respon- 
sible for  the  decision  if  schools  are 
to  be  closed  or  if  pupil  transportation 
services  are  to  be  delayed  in  all  other 
situations.  If  schools  are  to  be  closed, 
an  ,;.,inouncemenl  will  be  given  to  all 
radio  and  television  stations  before 
6:30  a.m. 

3.  Every  effort  shall  be  made  to 
maintain  pupil  transportation  ser- 
vices on  all  pupil-days  when  school 
is  in  session. 

4.  Certain  conditions  may  exist 
that  could  cause  a  delay  of  all  or  some 
of  the  pupil  transportation  services. 

a.  If  all  transportation  is  to  be 
delayed,  an  announcement  will  be 
given  to  radio  and  television  stations 
before  6;30  a.m. 

b.  If  some  pupil  transportation  ser- 
vices are  delayed  it  will  be  because 
drivers  cannot  make  certain  runs  or 
pick-ups  on  schedule.  No  announce- 


ments will  be  made  regarding 
mdividual  buses,  and  pupils  and  par- 
ents are  asked  to  adjust  to  these 
exceptional  conditions  in  these  emer- 
gencies. 

5.  All  bus  drivers  are  expected  to 
make  all  of  their  scheduled  runs  when 
schools  are  open.  Driver  judgment 
will  be  respected  when  parts  of  the 
run  cannot  be  made. 

In  order  to  receive  pay  for  his 
scheduled  runs,  a  driver  must  make 
a  significant  effort  to  make  his  runs 
and  must  so  certify  in  writing  to  the 
Supervisor  of  Transportation. 


6.     The  Superintendent  shall- 
establish  a  procedure  for  securing 
informationto  help  him  make  the  best 
decisions  possible  to  carry  out  these 
policies,  rules  and  regulations. 

"In  making  decisions  on  school 
closings  and  pupil  transportation,  we 
are  guied  by  these  policies,  by  sound 
judgment,  and  with  a  cognizance  of 
our  responsibility  to  provide  each  stu- 
dent with  every  possible  educational 
opportunity,' Supt  Grile  said.

New  concept  eliminates 
welfare  dependency 

Workfare.  a  new  concept  of  welfare  has  recently  been 
approved  by  Congress  and  will  require  able  welfare 
recipients  to  seek  and  maintain  jobs. 

Specific  sen/ices  in  this  legislation  include  identifying 
job  opportunities,  training  the  recipient  and  following  up 
on  job  placements-  A  free  day-care  center,  transportation, 
family  planning  and  counseling  has  also  been  proposed. 
Providing  incentive  to  hire  the  recipients,  the  federal  gov- 
ernment will  offer  grants  and  tax  credits.  Incentive  for 
those  on  welfare  is  simply  'work  or  no  welfare  checks.' 
The  recipient  must  apply  for  a  certain  number  of  jobs  each 
week  and  may   not  refuse  a  job  offer. 

The  effectiveness  of  these  services  of  course,  lies 
within  the  ability  and  numbers  of  those  enforcing  work- 
fare.  In  Allen  County  alone,  it  has  been  estimated  17,000 
welfare  recipients  could  be  placed  on  the  workfare  prog- 
ram. 

Each  step  in  job  placement  must  be  accurately  com- 
pleted in  order  to  utilize  workfare.  However,  the  amount 
of  red  tape  involved  could  literally  bury  the  original  pur- 
pose of  job  placement  and  gradual  independence.  It  could 
become  a  program  destined  to  strip  individuality  by  forc- 
ing a  man  to  work  or  starve. 


".  .  she  shall  bring  forth 
a  son.  and  thou  shalt  call  his 
name  Jesus;  for  he  shall 
save  his  people  from  their 
sins."  (Matt.  1:21) 

"Mommy,  didn't  we  just 
see  Santa  Claus  upstairs? 
How  did  he  get  up  here

Race  relations  reveal 
students   feelings 


Editors  Note:  This  artical  was  written  i 
hopes  of  relaying  some  thoughts  and  feelings 
of  the  Elmhurst  community  upon  the  questions 
of  race  relations  and  inter-racial  marrlage. 

by  Sue  Male 

"I'm  not  planning  on  marrying  a  black  guy," 
said  Cindy.  "Love  may  be  blind,  but  society 
isn't,"  she  explained.  "America's  society  isn't 
ready  to  accept  the  mixed  marriages,"  she 
added.  "Blacks  and  whites  cannot  intermarry 
without  being  considered  different'  by  both 
races". 

Marriages  between  blacks  and  whites  are  usually 
strongly  discouraged  by  both  sides  of  the  families. 
The  paid  may  even  be  disowned  by  severely  pre- 
judiced relatives. 

'Years  ago  you  never  saw  a  black  and  white 
together,  it  was  just  ....  .unheard  ol,  "  commented 
one  mother.  "Even  today,  most  people  look  twice 
,it  such  a  couple.' 
Ilarriage  causes  misery 

"\'m  not  prejudiced."  she  quickly  added,  "but  if 
i.iy  son  asked  for  my  blessings  in  a  nnixed  marriage. 


I  would  certainly  try  to  convince  him  not  to  yo 
through  with  it.  I  wouldn't  want  to  see  htm  experi- 
ence so  much  misery." 

"1  wouldn't  condemn  anyone  for  marrying  out  of 
their  skin',  but  1  wouldn't  do  it  myself."  said  Amy. 
Her  attitude  is  like  that  of  many  Americans  It's  okay 
forsomebody  else  but  you  wouldn't  catch  me  doing 
it. 

Amy  went  on  to  say,  "Relations  with  another  race 
would  rnean  conforming  to  a  different  lifestyle. 
You'd  have  to  work  like  everything  to  adjust  to  it. 
The  hardest  thing  would  be  getting  used  to  the  fact 
that  some  people  aren't  going  to  accept  you."  she 
concluded. 
License  proves  marriage 

"My  grandfather  was  white  and  my  grandma  was 
black.  "  said  Debbie.  "They  did  a  lot  of  travelling 
and  when  they  stopped  in  towns  to  get  a  room  for 
the  night,  the  hotel  owners  always  gave  them  a  hard 
time.  They  figured  my  grandma  was  a  prostitute, 
so  in  order  to  get  a  room,  my  grandfather  had  to 
carry  their  marriage  license  with  him  wherever  they 
went.  Without  the  license  as  proof,  they  would  never 
have  been  admitted," 

Others  were  asked  about  the  reaction  ol  their 


friends  and  families  if  they  married  outside  ol 
race.  John  said,  "If  your  friends  are  really 
friends  they  won't  condemn  you.  They  n 
criticize,  but  not  condemn," 

fulurray  stated,  "1  feel  color  is  no  barrier  in 
riage.  1  don't  know  what  my  parents  would  sa) 
l-don't  think  mv  friend^;  would  like  it  " 
Societies  thinking  old-fashioned 

Society  IS  still  old-fashioned  m  their  thinkifia 
there  would  definately  be  problems  in  such  a 
riage." 

When  asked  whether  he  would  marry  outo' 
race,  Steve  said,  "No,  because  social  presi 
would  be  too  great  and  1  feel  1  wouldn't  be  acM 
by  either  the  black  or  white  society." 

In  a  single  word,  one  young  black  man  expreJ 
his  sentiment  as  "Beautiful!  Inter-marriage  f 
people  are  getting  to  understand  each  other'sp 
lems  and  the  word  prejudice  will  be  forgotien 

Another  male  senior  commented,  "It's  alwa 
individual  thing,  II  depends  on  the  two  pf 
involved.  It's  not  what  you  marry,  but  who.  I 
love  the  person  do  what  you  think  is  right  I 
think  my  parents  would  be  shocked  or  agaif 
The  ones  to  suffer  most  would  be  the  child 

The  problems  of  a  mixed  marriage  are  unc 
able  and  all  too  often  cruel  to  everyone  invf 
Men  an.  women  taking  the  step  and  rising  a 
society's  unwritten  laws  are  finding  themselvi^ 
against  many  difficulties,  but  their  numbe'5 
growing  nevertheless.

Trojans  go  winless  in 
both  contests  on  road 

hv  Tom  Jafjour 

Elmhurst's  hope  for  an  outstanding  basketball  season 
dimmed  last  weekend  with  double-defeat  at  the  hands  of 
Northrop  and  Pendelton  Heights. 

The  two  losses,  both  at  the  opponents'  gym,  brought 
the  Elmhurst  losing  streak  to  three  games,  all  on  the  road. 
This  loss  skien  was  preceeded  by  a  tour-game  winning 
streak  which  made  Elmhurst  the  top  team  in  the  city  at

Elmhurst  finished  last  with  77 

Snider  placed  eight  men  into  the 
linals  and  won  live  of  the  matches 
by  pin.  Wayne  and  Northrop  had 
tour  lirst  place  finishes  while  our 
"Men  of  Troy"  had  none.

Sm  of  our  wrestlers  reached  the 
linals  but  were  unable  lo  win  any 
of  the  final  matches.  Reggie  Hill 


came  close  lo  wmnmg  his  match 
when  with  less  than  30  seconds  left 
in  Ihe  match,  Reggie  got  one  point 
lor  an  escape  and  Ihen  went  for  a 
takedown  But  Ihe  clock  ran  out

Eight  teams  to 
battle    for  title 

Last  weekend  the  regular  season  of  the  National  Football  League  came 
to  a  close  with  eight  teams  earning  playoff  berths.  These  teams  will  meet 
in  a  series  ol  games  to  determine  the  world  champion. 
The  Miami  Dolptiins  are  picked  as  the  lavorite  lo  go  all  the  way  after 
attaining  a  season  record  of  14-0.  The  Dolphins  lost  their  f.rst-stnng 
quarter-back  Bob  Griese  but  veteran  Earl  luiorrall  stepped  in  and  led  the 
team  to  the  American  Conference  East  title  behind  Ihe  running  of  Larry 
Csonica  and  Mercury  Morns 

The  Oakland  Raiders  caplured  the  American  Conler- 
ence  West  title  behind  the  passing  combination  of  Daryle 
Lamonlca  to  wide  receiver  Fred  BiletnikoH.  Also  Ihe  hard 
running  of  Marv  Hubbard  plays  a  big  role  in  the  Raider 
offence. 
Going  into  ils  linal  game  of  the  season  the  San  Francisco  ^Sers  defeated 
Ihe  Minnesota  Vikings  lo  clinch  the  National  Conference  WesI  title  over 
Atlanta  and  Los  Angeles. 

Surprising  most  of  the  experts  the  Green  Bay  Packers  ran  up  a  10-4 
record  to  capture  the  National  Conference  Central  title.  A  combinalion 
ol  veterans  and  young  players  was  what  led  the  Pack  to  their  lirst  title 
in  four  years  according  lo  second  year  coach  Dan  Devine 

The  Washington  Redskins  came  out  ahead  of  last 
years  Super  Bowl  champs  the  Dallas  Cowboys  in  the 
Eastern  division  of  the  NFC.  The  elusive  running  of  Larry 
Brown  is  the  Redskins  most  potent  offensive  weapon. 
The  Cowboys  were  able  to  capture  the  wild  card  spot 
In  the  National  Conference  to  keep  their  hopes  alive. 


also  defeated  by  pins  in  their 
matches 

Elmhurst's  Dave  Boyer  became 
involved  in  a  controversial  call  in 
his  first  match  when  Dave  had  his 
man  in  a  pin  hold.  The  referee  whis- 
fled  the  action  lo  a  hall  and  said 
IheWayne  wrestler  was  off  the  mat. 
Wrestler  Loses  Pin 

The  rule  states  that  in  a  man  has 
his  opponent  m  a  pin  hold  as  long 
as  Ihe  opponent  s  shoulders  are 
inside  the  mat  The  referee  slopped 
the  play  and  Dave  had  to  start  again 
in  a  less  favorable  position.  Dave 
lost  the  match  7-6. 

Asaleam  Elmhurst  didn't  fair  too 
bad  It  was  a  matter  of  winning  the 
right  match  at  the  right  time

The  first  loss  came  on  Friday 
against  tough  Northrop  73-61.  The 
Bruins  were  randed  Seventeenth  m 
the  stale  in  the  latest  UPl  poll 

In  the  (irst  half  of  ihat  game  the 
Tfojans  looded  good  as  they  lead 
al  the  fifsl  two  stops  19-18  and  39- 
35.  They  overcame  the  Northrop 
zone  defense  with  the  help  of  inside 
shooting  by  lunior  Kevin  Howell  and 
senior  John  Adams  while  lumor 
Don  Taylor  clicked  from  the  out- 
side 

Bruins  change  defense 
The  second  half  saw  Northrop 
switch  to  a  man-to-man  type  o( 
defense.  This  proved  to  be  effective 
as  the  Trojans  were  compared  to 
39  in  the  (irst. 

The  third  quarter  started  with  a 
boom  for  the  Bruins.  Behind  the 
shooting  and  rebounding  of  senior 
Mike  Whitt  and  junior  Mike  Muff, 
Northrop  oulscored  Elmhurst  15-5 
and  took  a  50-44  lead. 

The  Trojans  quickly  bounced 
back  with  a  dnvmg  lay-up  by  Kevin 
Howell  and  a  steal  and  three  point 
play  by  senior  Jefl  Hibler.  This 
pulled  Elmhursl  within  one  point  of 
Northrop,  50-49  Their  efforts  went 
to  naught  as  Northrop  scored  light 
straight  points  going  on  lo  lead  60- 
51  at  the  end  of  the  three  quarters. 
Press  proves  effective 

Coach  Ken  Eytcheson  sent  his 
team  out  in  the  forth  quarter  with 
a  full-court  press.  It  proved  effective 
aslheTro|ans  held  their  opponents 
to  (wo  points  in  4:09  and  thirteen 
points  in  the  quarter 

However  Elmhurst's  offense 
fared  even  worse  as  they  scored  but

Arabians  bounce  back 

The  Arabians  of  Pendellon 
Heights  bounced  back  from  a 
humiliating  defeat  last  year  at 
Trojan  hands  to  come  out  victori- 
ous 83-70  on  then  home  grounds 
Free  throws  were  the  downfall  of 
the  Trojans  as  they  gave  Pendleton 
40  chances  at  Ihe  line.  The  home 
team  made  good  on  33  of  these 
while  Elmhurst  converted  10  ol  only 
15. 

Although  Pendelton  led  all  the 
way,  the  Troians  actually  oulscored 
them  from  the  lield.  Elmhurst  hit  on 
30  on  90  attempts  while  the  victors 
hit  on  25  of  57  attempts

Nixon  renews  bombing 


Society  values  shift; 
citizens  fear  decay 

American  society  is  presently  engrossed  witti  trying  to 
discover  the  complex  source  of  its  own  decadence.  What 
few  Americans  have  asl(ed  is  whether  or  not  our  society 
is  decaying. 

In  a  recent  article  published  by  National  Observer,  his- 
torian Perry  rulller  describes  a  similar  situation  In  early 
American  history.  In  1679.  Boston  clergymen  decried  the 
abundance  of  vulgarity,  taverns  full  of  sinners,  poor 
craflsmenship  of  outrageously  priced  products,  the  dow- 
nfall of  family  living  and  a  sleugh  of  other  family  problems. 
Is  It  possible  that  we  are  merely  repeating  an  age  old 
cycle  in  history? 

Even  President  Nixon  has  revealed  fear  for  America.  In 
his  Slate  of  the  Union  Address  he  said.  "I  think  of  what 
happened  to  Greece  and  Rome  and  you  will  see  what  is 
left  -  only  the  pillara.  What  has  happened  of  course,  is 
that  great  civilizations  of  the  past,  as  they  have  become 
wealthy,  as  they  have  lost  their  will  to  live,  to  improve,  they 
then  have  become  subject  to  the  decadence  that  eventually 
destroys  the  civilization.  The  United  States  is  now  reaching 
that  point      .  ■ 

Nixon,  like  the  maiorlty  of  Americans,  has  pointed  to 
the  fervor  of  revolutionaries  and  liberals  and  sees  deca- 
dance.  What  remains  unnoticed  Is  that  most  Americans 
still  hold  the  same  morals  and  standard.  Their  views  have 
only  been  covered  up  by  those  who  propose  new  morals 
and  standards,  a  product  of  mass  media  based  on  sen- 
sationalism. 

There  is.  of  course,  a  never  ending  shift  in  values  and 
priorities  in  a  society.  This  shift;  however,  is  not  an  indica- 
tion of  moral  decadence  or  we  would  be  constantly  locked 
in  a  decaying  state. 

Moral  convictions  stop 
objectors'  participation 

A  consciencious  objector  feels  it  is  wrong  to  kill  his  fellow 
man  and  decides  not  to  go  to  war  when  drafted.  His  govern- 
ment says  he  doesn't  have  this  choice.  He  must  go  or  he 
will  be  imprisoned  as  a  criminal.  He  is  forced  to  give  up 
his  freedom;  so,  in  turn  others  will  be  free. 

Can  it  be  possible  the  government  of  the  United  States, 
the  government  of  freedom,  of  democracy,  the  country  with 
the  "best  form  "  of  government  is  actually  telling  its  people 
how  to  think  and  what  to  do  with  moral  convictions? 

It  young  men  hold  deep  moral  or  religious  beliefs  and 
oppose  violence,  they  can't  rightfully  be  forced  to  turn 
their  backs  on  their  deeply  rooted  feelings  and  go  to  war. 
Still  they  are  under  the  present  laws  of  this  free  country. 

To  avoid  being  hypocrites  by  going  against  their  pacifist 
ideals,  approximately  150.000  young  men  have  refused  to 
participate  in  the  war  they  don't  believe  in. 

Five  hundred  of  them  went  to  court  and  asked  for  official 
CO  status,  only  to  be  sent  to  serve  time  in  federal  prisons- 
They  worked  within  the  law  and  became  prisoners  of  it. 
Others  have  taken  refuge  in  various  foreign  countries, 
ending  their  schooling  and  leaving  the  security  of  their 
jobs  and  homes.  Too  often  they  are  forced  to  enter  new 
alien  and  frequently  hostile  societies. 

They  are  all  being  punished  .  .  .yet  have  they  really  done 
anything  wrong?  They  haven't  committed  any  traitorous 
or  violent  acts,  they  were  merely  faced  with  the  decision 
ot  military  status 

The  argument  that  the  exiles  are  cowaras  holds  no  truth. 
They  are  merely  people  who  want  reform  and  go  along 
with  the  ideas  of  a  given  majority. 

They  can  easily  be  compared  with  the  first  people  who 
came  to  this  country  These  pilgrims  were  prosecuted  for 
their  beliefs  as  are  the  war  exiles. 

Thirteen  Presidents,  dating  from  the  time  of  George 
Washington,  have  used  their  powers  to  grant  amnesty  for 
war  exiles.  If  amnesty  is  granted  by  President  Nixon  and 
Congress,  it  will  win  back  the  respect  of  foreign  nations 
that  was  lost  at  the  start  of  our  involvement  in  Vietnam. 
If  the  country  grants  unconditional  amnesty,  it  would  be 
admitting  they  were  wrong  and  showing  willingness  to  do 
something  about  it. 


As  the  presidential  elec- 
tions drew  near.  President 
Nixon  stated  in  November 
1972  "peace  was  at  hand  ' 
However,  the  ever  so  elusive 
peace  has  seemed  to  have 
slipped  through  the  closed 
fingers  of  the  Nixon  adminis- 
tration and  fallen  out  of  the 
bomb  chutes  of  massive  B- 
52  bombers. 

As  ihese  bombs  have  fallen  so 
has  the  cftltcism  around  the  world. 
Formal  slalements  from  countries 


all  over  Ihe  world  hawe  expressed 
shock,  misunderslanding  and 
queslion  lo  the  new  and  intensified 
attacks  upon  North  Vietnam 

Yet  the  American  public  knows 
little  more  about  reason  for  the 
renewed  bombing  than  the  rest  ot 
the  world.  The  popular  supposition 
is  that  maybe  Nixon  is  trying  to 
bring  Ihe  Vietnamese  to  the 
negotiating  table  with  a  different, 
less  demanding  attitude 

However,  after  Ihe  bombings  had 
been  reduced  to  Ihe  area  below  the 
20th  parallel,  Le  Due  Tho,  North 
Vietnams  envoy  to  Ihe  Parts  Peace 
Talks  stated.     The  Vietnamese 


people are  resolved  not  to  yield 

to  pressure  or  threat." 

Neither  President  Nixon  nor  his 
administration  issued  a  formal 
statement  of  explanation  ot  the 
renewed  bombings.  Neverless.  rep- 
resentatives of  our  government  say 
they  support  Nixon's  actions  and 
his  present  Vietnam  policies  tor 
whatever  the  reasons  (The  blind 
leading  the  blind,) 

Perhaps  Nixon  wanted  a  "lasting 
meaningful"  peace  agreement 
before  his  inauguration  so  that  his 
'68  campaign  promise  of  a  peace 
seltlemenl  would  not  be  a  false- 
hood Regardless  ol  the  reasons  tor 
Nixon's  renewed  bombings,  their 
eflects  can  be  seen  in  the  American 
Congrgfs  and  at  the  Peace  Talks. 
Congress  wants  say 

In  Congress,  many  agree  and  dis- 
agree with  Nixon  and  his  present 
Vietnam  policy  The  Congress  has 
a  Democratic  maiority  and  already 
it  can  be  seen  that  Congress  wants 
moresay  in  the  Nixon  plans  to  guide 
the  country. 

The  talks  have  taken  on  a  new 
perspectiveastar  as  future  negotia- 
tions are  concerned  Presideni 
Nixon  said  he  was  "not  optimislK 
(about  the  talks),  but  neither  am  I 
going  to  be  pessimistic." 

Le  Due  Tho  said  it  this  way,  "Now 
the  decisive  moment  has  come 
either  to  rapidly  settle  peacefully 
the  Vietnam  problem  and  sign  the 
agreed  accord  or  to  continue  the 
war  ■' 
Bombings  determine  end 

In  the  fulure,  history  books  may 
look  back  and  point  to  Nixon's 
renewed  bombings  as  the  major 
reason  for  the  contmuation  or  the 
termination  ol  the  Vietnam  War 
However,  it  must  be  said  thai 
neither  Ihe  American  public  nor  her 
representatives  shared  in  this  deci- 
sion How  America  will  accept  thi^ 
decision  is  yet  to  be  seen. 


Simple  man  passes  on 


by  Jayne  Langmeyer 

"...a  man  in  his  right  mind 
would  never  want  ot  be  Pres- 
ident, if  he  knew  what  it 
entails,  Aside  from  the 
impossible  administrative 
burden,  he  has  to  take  ail 
sorts  of  abuse  from  liars  and 
demagogues. .  .All  the  Presi- 
dent is,  is  a  glorified  public 
relations  man  who  spends 
his  time  flattering,  kissing 
and  kicking  people  to  get 
them  to  do  what  they  are 
supposed  to  do  anyway." 

The  late  President  Harry  Truman 
wrote  this  in  a  letter  to  a  relative 
in  1947 


The  33rd  President  of  the  United 
States  suffered  (fom  congestion  in

Truman  becomes  pawn 

According  to  Newsweek,  Tru-

ness man,  a  lame-duck  county 
ludge  and  a  minor  pawn  in  Ihe  Kan- 
sas City,  Mo  machine  of  boss  Tom 
Pendergast.  Robert  Taft  referred  to 
him  as  a  'roughneck  ward  politi- 
cian." 

Many  historians  have  said  Tru- 
man was  confronted  with  one  ol  the 
most  difficult  decisions  a  man  has 
ever  had  to  make  -  that  ot  dropping 
the  atomic  bomb  during  World  Vi/ar 
II.  He  was  not  aware  the  bomb  even 
existed  until  he  was  inaugerated 
after  the  death  ot  Franklin 
Roosevelt.  The  Chief  of  Naval  Ope- 


rations saia,  "The  bomb  will  never 
go  off "  He  told  this  to  Truman  as 
"an  expert  in  explosives." 

Truman  showed  his  strength  as 
he  ran  for  re-election  in  1948.  Polls 
listed  his  opponent  Thomas  Dewey 
as  a  sure  victor  while  Ihe  medn, 
politicians,  some  of  Truman's  staii 
and  Democratic  leaders  agreed

However,  many  Americans  were

votes  than  needed  to  become  Presi- 
dent, 

The  Missourian's  desire  for  sim-

Instead  ot  a  stately  funeral  expected 
for  a  President,  Truman  was

mony in  his  home  town.  Indepen-

Movie  Review 


Film  spills  overboard 


by    Nancy  Frebel 

All  13  Academy  Award  winners  in 
Irwin  Allen  s  Posetden  Adventure 
went  overboard  -  both  literally  and 
figuratively.  The  over-dramatized 
intensity  was  thrown  into  the 
readers  face  without  giving  the 
viewer  a  chance  to  the  absorb  the 
circumstances. 

The  plot  was  childishly  simple 
and  easily  characterized  but  pre- 
sented the  devastation  with  so 
much  emphasis  that  il  left  the 
viewer  doubled  over  in  laughter 
rather  than  terrified.

Winter  sport   thrills   skiers 


bv 

One  may  think  that  people  who 
wear  boots  make  like  Sherman 
tanks  and  slats  of  fiber  glass 
extending  six  feet  m  length  look  like 
penguins.  They  are  believed  to  have 
daring  beyond  all  belief  and  to  be 
extremely  wealthy. 

These  notions  have  (oHowed  the 
skier  since  skiing  was  a  sport 
pursued  on  waxed  wooden  boards 
gliding  down  gentle  slopes  in  the 
woods  Today  skiing  is  one  of  the 
fastest  rising  winter  sports  in  this 
country  Attracting  people  from  six 
10  sixty,  It  IS  fun  and  not  tremend- 
ously expensive  for  the  novice  or 
the  weekend  skier. 

The  nation  now  has  nearly  700  ski 
areas.  Skiing  has  surpassed  golf 
this  year  as  the  sport  on  which 
Americans  spent  the  most  money. 
Al  least  6,000,000  Americans  are 
skiers  and  the  total  is  climbing  at 
15  per  cent  a  year. 

For  the  world's  resort  owner  s. 
Iravel  agents,  equipment  makers, 
lechniquesin  less  than  halt  the  lime 
clothing  designers,  real  estate 
spectators  and  surgeons. 


this  year  will  be  a  $10  billion  en' 
prise. 

Today  anyone  can  learn  to  ski, 
many  people  40  and  over  are  taking 
it  up.  Many  new  teaching  methods 
are  being  developed.  One  of  the 
most  popular  methods  is  the  GLM 
method.  In  applying  this  technique, 
a  GLM  (Graduated  Length  Method) 
student  starts  out  on  skis  as  short 
as  2V}  feet  and  works  up  through 
longer  ones  as  his  skill  improves. 
A  beginner  can  learn  required 
required  by  older  methods 

No  matter  what  the  method, 
instructors  are  adopting  a  different 
approach  where  form  isnl  as  slren- 
ouslytaughtas  control  Once  it  was 
insisted  that  a  skier  kept  his  feet 
as  close  together  as  possible:  today 
many  people  say  that  he  can  have 
them  as  far  aparl  as  his  hios. 
Colors  highlight  slopes 
Looking  on  the  slopes  is  some- 
Ihmg  atl  the  advanced  skiers  try  to 
do.  This  year  many  brilliant  colors 
may  be  seen  as  opposed  to  the  fam- 
ous red,  white  and  blue  wear  so 
popular  last  year.  Yellows,  pinks 


maroons,  and  burgundys  can  be 
seen  on  Americans  runs  this  year 
Among  the  under-25  set  army 
fatigue  jackets  continue  to  be  seen 
but  are  slowly  losing  popularity  to 
the  fur-hooded  orange  and  green 
Air  Force  parkas  For  the  younq 
experienced  skier  laded  jeans 
remain  the  deliniie  legwear 

Not  being  waterproof  they  display 
the  wearers  skill  and  confidence  in 
his  ability  to  slay  on  his  feet  More 
sensible  skiers  give  their  jeans  a 
Scotchgard  treatment  to  keep  the 
water  out. 
Equipment  cost  rises 

In  years  past,  a  skier  could  equip 
himself  very  well  for  less  than  S)50 
but  today  the  cost  for  gear  and  clo- 
thing in  the  United  States  is  $300 
inkling  is  the  only  sport  where  safety 
and  pleasure  depends  on  your 
equipment

several  games  this  season  due  to  injuries  and  an 
unecessary  question  on  the  South  player's  eligibility.

by  Nancy  Frebel 

"It's  hard  work,  a  lot  of  push-ups 
and  running,  "  commented  senior 
Greg  Bussard  concerning  the  daily 
wrestling.  Other  wrestlers  relaled 
their  emotions  and  routines  experi- 
enced on  days  of  a  meet. 

Junior  Jim  Wilhelm,  wrestling  in 
the  121  lb.  weight  class,  stated,  "1 
usually  drink  orange  juice  during 
the  day  and  chocolate  and  honey 
jusi  before  I  wrestle."  Jim  always 
wears  his  "good-luck"  socks  which 
are  red,  white  and  blue  and  "eat  the 
same  things  I  ate  on  the  day  of  the 
last  meet  " 

"Two  matches  before  1  wrestle. 
I  Stan  to  concentrate.  I  want  to  win 
lor  the  team  instead  of  myself,"  he 
added  When  Jim  is  wrestling,  he 
can  hear  only  Coach  Welborn.

Junior  Bob  Baker,  155  lb.  weight 
class,  can  barely  hear  Coach  Wel- 
born whi'?  he  is  wrestling,  "I  don't 
hear  an     -mg  but  I  can  hear  him 


has  to  keep  his  weight  down  m 
order  to  maintain  his  eligibility  in

weight  by  working  out  hard  in  prac- 
tices, running  and  eating  meat.  Bob 
rarely  eats  during  the  day  of  a  meet 
because  'I'm  too  nervous  to  eat" 
but  he  does  have  a  steak  dinner 
before  wrestling. 

Greg,  wrestling  in  the  145  lb. 
weight  class,  also  has  to  keep  his 
weight  down  and  accomplishes  this 
by  running  with  sweats  at  home  the 
evening  before  a  meet  He  com- 
mented, 'fm  luckyl  can  drink  a  car- 
ton ot  milk  during  the  day.  " 
Greg  contemplates  movements 

Just  before  wrestling  Greg 
'thinks  about  the  basic  movements 
and  tell  myself  I  can  beat  him  and 
do  my  best." 

Junior  Larry  Watlley.  who  wres- 
tles at  105  lbs.,  goes  to  bed  two 
hours  early  the  night  before  a  meet 
and  drinks  orange  juice.  "I  think 
about  the  moves  I'm  going  to  do 
and  how  I'm  going  to  look  in  front

Senior  John  Hoard,  heavyweight, 
does  not  eat  breaktast  during  the 
day  of  a  meet  and  eats  only  a  light

period,  '  John  stated.  "Just  before 
I  wrestle  I  think  about  the  moves 
I'm  going  to  do  first.  I  cant  hear 
the  crowd,  I  can  only  hear  Coach 
Welborn,"  he  continued 

"I  cant  hear  anything  but  when 
I'm  in  a  lam  and  I  listen  to  what  the 
coach  has  to  say,  "  said  junior  Jack 
Wolfe,  who  wrestles  in  the  185  lb. 
weight  class  "1  don't  have  to  worry 
about  keeping  my  weight  down  but 
I  eat  a  big  lunch  and  skip  breaktast 
I  don't  eat  anything  sweet,  nothing 
that  will  stick  to  my  stomach  and

added.  "I  don  I  listen  to  the 
teachers  during  the  day  because  I 
think  about  how  I  will  look  to  the 
crowd.  I  don't  want  to  look  bad," 
he  concluded.

Teacher  helps  with 
counselor  shortage 


"and  here  goes 


Under  the  direction  of  Mr.  Allen  Haller,  Ecology  students,  juniors  Bob  Baker, 
Gandy  Presler,  Denise  Ball,  sophomore  Jan  Munson  and  junior  Everett  Bone 
discuss  ways  of  remapping  the  Fox  Island  Preserve.  The  class  recently  visited  the 
preserve  to  study  the  ecological  environment.  According  to  Mr.  Haller  no 
definate  plais  have  been  made  to  organize  the  preserve.  "We  are  trying  to 
remap  the  area  to  the  most  advantageous  way  for  the  community." 


An  unusual  connection  has 
developed  between  ttie  counseling 
office  and  Mr  Robert  Passwalers 
history  classes. 

A  serious  stiortage  of  counselors 
occurred  when  Mr.  John  Sinks  left  for 
the  Indiana  Mouse  of  Representatives 
and  Mrs.  Sharon  Banks  was  hios- 
pitalized. 

According  to  Mr.  Passwater,  all 
second  semester  programming  was 
then  left  to  Mr,  Doug  Spencer  and 
since  it  is  easier  to  hire  a  social 
studies  substitute  than  one  for 
counseling,  Mr,  Passwater  was  asked 
to  replace  Mr.  Sinks  until  he  returns 
in  April 

Taking  over  for  Mr,  Passwater  is 
Jane  Sosenheimer.  a  November 
graduate  of  Ball  State,  Miss 
Sosenheimer  is  a  social  studies  major 
and  is  presently  teaching  four  of  Mr. 
Passwater's  five  classes. 

Paula  Wood,  a  sopnomore  at 
Franklin  College  and  a  former 
Elmhurst  graduate  is  teaching  one 
class.  Paula  is  Interested  in  becoming 
a  teacher  and  decided  to  observe  Mr, 
Passwater,  her  former  teacher's 
classes. 

Mr  Passwater  confers  with  Miss 
Wood  and  Miss  Sosenheimer  at  the 
end  of  each  school  day  as  to  what

program,  Rapping  Round. 

Four  contestants  were  chosen  from

Elmhurst,  Every  school  didn't  have  a 
representative  on  the  show,  '  she 
commented 

Although  the  show  on  which  Kathy 
appeared  was  viewed  on  Jan.  10,  it 
was  taped  in  Indianapolis  on  Jan.  4, 
According  to  Kathy,  the  agency 
financed  the  entire  trip. 

The  moderator  for  the  show,  a 
Lutheran  minister,  led  the  group  in 
discussions  concerning  patriotism, 
abortion,  and  controlled  education, 
Kathy  said  the  discussion  on  patriot- 
ism was  repetitive  and  the  students 
said  the  same  thing  only  rephrased," 
Kathy  said  her  only  problem  was 
getting  a  chance  to  speak.  "I  didn't 
want  to  butt  in  and  t  hated  to  inter- 
rupt. I  didn't  say  anything  the  first  part 
of  the  show  but  the  moderator  said 
he  would  try  to  make  room  for  me 
to  speak  the  second  part,"  she  stated. 
Group  discussed  mistakes 

During  the  commercials  the  group 
discussed  the  things  they  did  wrong 
and  elaborated  on  their  discussions, 
"Sometimes  what  we  discussed  dur- 
ing the  commercials  was  better  than 
on  the  show  " 

Kathy  felt  the  discussions  went  well 
considering  they  were  in  front  of  a 
camera.  "Some  kids  said  they  weren't 
aware  of  the  camera  but  I  was,  I  had 
to  watch  what  I  was  saying  because 
I  knew  my  parents  and  everybody 
were  watching,'  she  commented. 


Senior  Jayne  Langmeyer  was  also 
chosen  to  appear  on  the  weekly

Speaker  tells 
techniques  of 
propaganda 

by  Cindy  Kendalt 

Mass  media  class  and  their 
teacher.  Miss  Susan  Highfill, 
hosted  Dr.  Raymond  Wilkes, 
Professor  of  speech  at  the  Indiana 
University-Purdue  Regional  Cam- 
pus, on  Thursday  Jan.  11.  He  dis- 
cussed with  the  class  the  different 
types  of  propaganda  and  also 
showed  a  self-composed  film. 

Or  Wilkes  presented  a  speech  entitled 
"Propaganda  American  Style."  It  con- 
sisted of  a  discussion  on  the  types  of  prop- 
aganda and  how  each  are  used  in  political 
campaigns,  advertising  and  swaying  the 
individual  opinions  of  a  majority 
Professor  expresses  opinion 

He  also  expressed  his  opinion  on  how 
he  felt  that  propaganda  is  more  dangerous 
in  a  country  like  the  United  Stales  where 
there  is  no  way  of  knowing  the  source, 
than  m  a  country  where  all  propaganda 
comes  directly  from  the  government 

Composed  of  various  commercials  from 
television  and  bits  and  pieces  of  his  own 
work,  Dr  Wilkes  presented  his  film  to 
mass  media  students  It  gave  examples  of 
propaganda  used  today  to  sway  public 
opinion  through  advertising  on  television, 
radio  and  literary  publications 

The  purpose  of  having  Or  Wilkes  speak 
to  Ihe  class  was  to  make  students  more 
aware  of  influenciai  structures  in  the  "in- 
formed" society

pLiving  together . . 


by  Bill  Watson 

Popularized  and  practiced  in  the 
counter-culture,  living  together 
out  of  marriage  tias  increased 
greatly  among  youth. 

Living  together  has  replaced  the 
institution  ot  marriage  in  many 
relationships  College  students 
especially  lind  it  convenient,  both 
financially  and  socially. 

With  the  past  decades  rise  of 
anti-values,  youth  steered  aw/ay 
marriage  toward  a  relationship 
that  was  shunned  by  society. 

A  psychiastrist  at  the  University 
of  California  at  Berkley  stated, 
■'Stable,  open,  non-mantal  rela- 
lionships  are  pushing  the  border 
of  what  society  is  going  to  face  in 
10  years,'* 

College  students  often  choose 
such  a  relationship  while  seeking 
security  on  a  large  campus.  Most, 
however,  are  not  prepared  to  han- 
dle the  financial  burden  of  a  family 


and,  instead,  choose  to  live  out  of 
marriage. 

Also  accounting  for  the  marked 
increase  is  the  wide  spread  usage 
of  new  contraceptives.  Youth  no 
longer  have  to  fear  unwanted  pre- 
gnancies. This  allows  them  to 
carry  on  the  relationship  of  a  mar- 
ried couple  with  little  chance  of 
consequence. 

Youth  also  often  reject  marriage 
because  of  the  constantly  increas- 
ing divorce  rate.  Alienated  by  the 
seemmg  failure  of  American  mar- 
riages, couples  live  together  in 
order  to  understand  each  other 
better.  In  this  way  they  avoid  the 
situation  of  divorce  because  if  one 
partner  leaves  there  are  no  legal 
complications. 

However,  Vance  Packard  in  his 
book,  The  Sexual  Wilderness,  said 
people  who  nave  had  many  sexual 
experiences  before  marriage  are 


often  less  likely  to  '■live  happily 
ever  after"  when  they  finally  marry. 

Successful  marriages  have  been 
on  the  decline  for  the  past  decade. 
One  important  factor  making  mar- 
riage a  necessity  in  our  society, 
however,  is  children.  Illegitimate 
children  have  always  been  looked 
down  on  by  society.  With  this  rise 
in  non-married  relationships  also 
comes  an  alarming  increase  in 
illegitimate  children. 

Although  living  together  is  a 
result  of  our  constantly  changing 
values,  society  regards  it  as  a 
cause  of  promiscuity  and  eventual 
decadence. 

With  the  frankness  of  modern 
views  of  sex,  living  together 
should  no  longer  be  hushed  up  but 
instead  discussed  openly.  Perhaps 
society  could  further  understand 
why  marriage  is  being  rejected  by 
youth.

society    is    going    to 

face    in    10  years."

Controls  slow  hijackers 


January  grads  eligible 
for  honors,  scholarships 


There  vi^as  a  time  when  January  graduates  were  deprived 
of  many  things  that  June  graduates  received.  Among  other 
things,  they  weren't  allowed  to  be  in  the  National  Honor 
Society  or  even  participate  in  commencement.  At  El  mhurst, 
this  has  all  changed. 

A  January  graduate  is  a  student  who  finished  an  eight 
semester  course  in  only  seven  semesters.  They  therefore 
graduate  in  January.  Many  students  used  to  lighten  their 
schedules  so  they  could  graduate  in  June  and  be  eligible 
for  the  National  Honor  Society.  In  the  words  of  Principal 
Charles  Eickhotf ,  January  grads  were  'penalized'  for  getting 
their  requirements  done  early. 

This  year:  however,  it's  different.  For  the  first  time 
January  grads  are  eligible  to  be  in  the  National  Honor 
Society.  They  will  be  eligible  for  all  state  scholarships 
and  will  be  able  to  participate  in  commencement.  They 
also  will  be  allowed  to  come  back  and  attend  the  awards 
program  in  May.  Plans  for  a  January  grad  breakfast  are 
even  being  thought  of.  The  January  grads  of  1973  will 
enjoy  as  many  priviledges  as  the  June  graduate. 

In  an  age  of  criticizing  the  establishment  for  not  changing 
with  the  times,  the  administration  of  Elmhurst  High  School 
has  come  a  long  way  toward  giving  the  January  grad  the 
priviledges  he  rightfully  deserves.

Tighter  controls  have 
decreased  the  number  of 
successful  hijacking 
attempts  in  the  past  several 
years  with  more  than  31  per 
cent  attempts  successful  in 
1972,  44  percent  in  1971  and 
67  per  cent  in  1970. 

Federal  law  requires  new 
measures  to  control  the  contem- 
porary sky  pirates.  All  carry-on  lug- 
gage and  packages  must  be 
inspected  as  ot  Jan.  5  After  Feb 
5,  unjiotmed  guards  will  be  on  duty 
at  all  boarding  gates  used  at  the 
nation's  531  commercial  airports 

Hijacking  attempts  averaged  lour 
a  month  during  the  first  stx  months 
ot  1972.  This  average  decreased  in 
the  latter  part  of  the  year  with  an 
average  ot  one  hiiackmg  a  month 


Many  airports  are  using  unique 
techniques  for  protection  against 
air  piracy.  The  biggest  concentra- 
tion ot  anti-hijacking  devices  is 
located  al  the  John  F.  Kennedy 
International  Airport  Seventy-dve 
walk-through  magnetometers  are 
supplemented  by  approximately 
100  hand-held  "squealers  "  which 
detect  objects  in  pockets  or  hand 
luooaqe 

Besides  several  hundred 
uniformed  guards  already  on  duly 
at  the  JFK  Airport,  custom  agents, 
private  security  guards  and  airport 
security  guards  are  based  al  the  air- 
port Ten  FBI  agents  are  also  avail- 
able 
Airlines  screen  passengers 

SinceJan  3.  Western  Airlmes  has 
been  screening  all  passengers  and 
visitors  with  electronic  devices 
before  they  are  permitted  to  move 
up  the  escalator  to  its  departure 
lounge 


Several  airports  in  the  country  are 
waiting  for  ordered  magnetome- 
lers.  Hopkins  International  Airport 
IS  now  using  electric  hand  wands 
to  inspect  passengers.  An  elec- 
tronic check  IS  being  made  of  rela- 
tives and  friends  of  departing  pas- 
sengers in  ivlemphis 

Payments  (or  these  new  devices 
is  being  questioned  with  a  "head 
tax"  on  each  passenger  being  con- 
sidered Another  suggestion  is  an 
increase  in  (ares  According  to  U,S, 
News  and  World  Report,  the  Air 
Transport  Association  estimates 
the  total  cost  of  air  protection  will 
be  $150  million  yearly 

The  necessity  of  tighter  controls 
on  aif  piracy  cannot  be  overlooked. 
However,  the  burden  ot  cost  should 
noi  be  expected  to  be  taken  care 
ot  by  the  passengers.  Even  if  the 
federal  government  pays  for  the 
new  security  devices,  this  money 
must  come  from  somewhere.

Group  fights  growth 


by  Sue  Male 

.  Zero  Population  Growth  (ZPG),  a 
relatively  new  organization,  has 
taken  on  the  challenge  ot  educating 
the  public  m  population  control. 
The  goal  of  ZPG  is  to  reduce  popu- 
lation growth  lo  zero  by  1999,  so 
that  (he  rate  of  births  will  balance 
to  the  rate  of  dealtis, 

"We  send  out  booklets  and  infor- 
mation to  engaged  and  newly  mar- 
ried couples,  '  stated  Kim  Miller, 
publicity  director  of  ZPG.  "We  urge 
population  control  as  a  voluntary 
means  and  hope  people  lake  a 
responsible  position  in  the  move- 
ment," 

Population  growth  in  the  United 
States  alone  in  one  year  in  the  equi- 
valent of  eight  new  cities  the  size 
of  Fort  Wayne.  According  to  a  UN 
report,  by  the  year  2000  6,5  billion 
people  will  inhabit  (he  earth. 
Rates  hold  level 

The  world  s  birth  rate  is  holding 
level  on  the  whole.  Death  rales; 
however,  are  declining,  as  medical 
research  reduce  inlant  mortality 
and  moilern  medicine  takes  hold  in 
develop  ng  countries.  The  result  - 
no  slow  up  in  population  growth. 
"Indiviilual  lobbying  by  members 


of  ZPG  is  accomplished  through 
writing  (o  legislalors  in  all  levels  of 
government  We  primarily  iry  to 
influence  legislation,'  added  Kim 
Bill  Introduces  deductions 

"If  action  IS  not  taken  voluntarily 
by  the  individual,  something  will 
have  to  be  done  to  discourage 
couples  from  having  more  than  two 
children,"  stated  Kim,  A  bill  was 
recently  introduced  to  Congress 
proposing  that  tax  deductions  be 
given  only  for  two  children  per  lam- 
ily.  This  is  just  one  way  to  cut  popu- 
lation growlh  Countless  other  pos- 
sibilities certainly  exist  If  the  threat 
becomes  severe,  the  government 
could  sirictly  limit  the  size  ot  every 
family  lo  Iwo  children. 

"Adults  could  also  be  rewarded 
(or  sterilization  in  the  future- 
Couples  might  receive  special 
benefits  for  having  one  or  no  chil- 
dren," said  Kim.  "We  would  rather 
not  see  this  happen  though,  '  he 
quickly  added  "We  are  promoting 
populatini  control  on  a  voluntary 
basis  so  that  people  won't  be  lorceo 
into  anything  in  the  future."

The  plot  unfolds  as  an  innocent 
canoe  trip  down  a  river,  soon  to  be 
developed  into  a  dam,  ends  in 
tragedy  Three  city-oriented  men 
are  persuaded  into  the  trip  by  Burt 
Reynolds,  a  nature-conscious 
woodsman.  Equipped  with  bow  and 
arrows,  tents  and  other  essentials, 
the  four  begin  an  exciting  journey 
down  the  rapids  o(  (he  river. 

Portrayed  with  realism,  the  primi- 
tive mountain  people  appeared 
poverty  stricken  in  their  shappy 
houses  and  un-mduslnal  surround- 
ings. But  ii  was  |ust  these  people 
who  added  the  intensity  that  caused 
hands  to  sweat  and  hearts  to  pul- 
sate 

The  lour  explorers  accidently 
come  upon  two  "hillbillys".  The 
explorers  kill  one  hillbilly  after 
experiencing  a  scene  o'  homtying 
sex  perversion.  Justified  law  has  lit- 
tle impact  on  outsiders  because  all 
mountain  people  are  related.  For 
this  reason  they  decide  to  bury  the 
body  and  return  home  as  quickly 


as  possible  although  the  dangerous 
rapids  remain  a  threat 

The  incident  snowballs  and  after 
losing  one  man  lo  the  rapids  and 
a  second  seriously  injured,  they  kill 
the  remaining  hillbilly.  The  movie 
spares  no  bloodshed  as  Burl 
Reynolds'  gaping  wound  pulls  the 
explorers  closer  to  the  reality  now 
facing  them 

The  three  finally  succeed  in 
returning  to  the  small  (own  where 
their  journey  began  only  to  face  a 
persistant  sheriff.  No  evidence 
could  be  found  against  the  three 
men,  therelore,  the  sheriff  let  them 
go  with  the  memories  vividly 
planted  in  their  minds. 

Apparent  gaps  between  the  men 
from  the  city  and  the  people  of  the 
mountains  included  both  social  and 
industrial  Altnougti  hospital 
facilities  in  the  small  mountain  town 
were  adequate,  the  people  who 
lived  farther  back  in  the  hills  knew 
nothing  of  modern  technology.

Crisis  proves  serious 


America  is  slowly  being  robbed 
of  it's  energy  sources.  Unless  a 
crash  program  is  slarted  lo  develop 
new  sources  of  gas  and  oil,  today's 
power  shortage  could  become  a 
disaster. 

in  21  states,  natural  gas  is  now 
often  denied  to  new  customers,  and 
even  existing  contracts  cannot 
always  be  honored  Our  reserve 
electricity  is  so  tlim  that  If  we  had 
not  had  mild  winters  and  cool  sum- 
mers for  the  past  two  years,  tne 
^-lackouts  in  the  big  cities  might 


have  been  frequeni  occurances. 

The  fact  is  that  energy  is  the  life 
of  industrial  nations  and  is  the  one 
resource  we  are  useless  without.  No 
matter  what  our  economic  problem, 
its  clear  that  degradation  of  the 
environment  isn't  acceptable. 

How  can  the  average  citizen  con- 
serve energy^  We  can  do  this  by 
switching  oft  unneeded  lights, 
radios  and  televisions.  The  develop-

Donny  Osmond  fans  eat  your 
heart  out!  Fort  Wayne  need  not  lune 
in  and  turn  on  to  his  angelic  sgueals 
any  longer,  but  to  something  more 
meaningful,  thanks  to  Deadringer 
Inc.  Now  in  planning,  Deadringer 
Inc.  is  working  to  bring  about  a 
communjiy  sponsored  FM  station 
dedicated  to  bring  the  city  a  total 
access  to  the  media. 

Existing  as  a  non-profit  organiza- 
tion, Deadringer  consists  strictly  of 
volunteers  Believing  that  present 
radio  stations  do  not  adequately 
provide  the  community  with  its 
needs,  these  volunteers  have  given 
iheir  time  to  develop  a  radio  station 
that  will  serve  the  community  by 
active  participation  in  its  cultural 
and  intellectual  life. 

Because  it  is  a  listener- 
sponsored,  the  station  will  be  free 
from  the  restrictions  and  inhabi- 
tions  of  commercial  radio,  includ- 
ing the  consequences  of  a  popular- 
ity rating  scale. 

Programs  planned 

Wishing  to  discharge  its  respon- 
sibility to  the  community  with  vigor, 
intelligence  and  imagination,  prog- 
rams that  are  permissive,  (resh  and 
honest  are  being  planned  The  FIVI 
station  will  devote  about  60  per  cent 


of  its  air  time  to  public  affairs  in 
tne  lorm  oi  tiard  news  broadcasts, 
discussion  programs  and  special 
documentaries  Theremainma40 
per  cent  of  air  time  will  be  devoted 
to  drama  and  literature,  a  wide  vari- 
ety of  music  programming  of  origi- 
nal works,  live  concerts  and  deserv- 
ing and  unknown  musical  talent. 
There  might  also  be  programs  lor 
foreign  speaking  Fort  Wayne  citi- 
zens and  special  covering  of  City 
Council  meetings. 

Deadringer  Inc.  has  brought  this 
type  of  station  far  along  the  road 
toward  realization  The  community 
is  the  implement  that  ultimately  pro- 
vide for  the  nature  and  scope  of  the 
station's  activities 

Pledges  sought 

Pledges  of  support  are  now  being 
sought  so  when  a  license  is  granted 
lo  Deadringer  by  the  Federal  Com- 
munications Commission,  every- 
thing will  be  ready  to  go.  Hopefully 
after  all  FCC  requirements  have 
been  lulfilled.  the  station  will  come 
into  existance  sometime  in  March, 


expected  until  early  In  the  next  cen- 
tury. This  leaves  a  35  per  cent  gap 
in  our  energy  requirements  that  can 
be  supplied  only  by  petroleum. 

The  United  States  is  now  depend- 
ing on  many  countries  for  their 
supplies  of  oil,  but  can't  continue 
to  borrow  from  them  forever.  A 
crash  program  is  needed  to  develop 
all  of  the  nation's  energy  resources 
at  the  same  time  because  we  are 
going  to  need  them  all  The  prog- 
ram should  start  now  because  it 
takes  three  to  eight  years  to  develop 
new  oil  fields  and  coal  mines  or  to 
build  new  generating  stations,  nuc- 
lear plants  and  refineries. 

The  crisis  is  upon  us  now  and 
until  we  realize  the  seriousness  of 
the  situation  we  will  continue  to 
waste  our  energy  beyond  belief.

Crocker  Homemaker  of  Tomorrow  as 
a  result  of  a  written  knowledge  and 
altitude  examination  taken  by  botfi 
senior  girls  and  boys  on  Dec.  5. 

In  being  Elmhurst's  Homemaker, 
Julie  won  a  specially  designed  cfiarm 
depicting  a  fireplace  symbolizing

Miss  Anne  Welle-Slrand  from  Norway 
will  be  visiting  Elmhurst  for  Ihe  next  two 
weeks  She  is  participating  in  Ihe  Experi- 
ment in  International  Living 

When  asked  about  the  differences  in 
schools  in  the  United  States  and  her  native 
country,  she  explained,  "High  school  is 
noi  compulsory  in  Norway  A  big  high 
school  would  be  about  500  students  Also, 
'he  discipline  rules  are  no!  as  strict  as 
here  We  have  no  attendance  rules  " 

The  students  do  pretty  much  what  they 
warn  to  do  -  they  make  the  lesson  plans, 
hirp  and  fire  leachers,"  she  continued.

Miss  Welle-Strand  teaches  grades  one

Vietnam  conflict  ends; 
American  role  finishes 

The  end  of  the  war  is  at  hand.  Or  is  it?  On  Tuesday, 
January  23,  President  Nixon  announced  that  the 
United  States  and  North  Vietnam  had  come  to  a  peace 
agreement.  On  Saturday,  January  27  at  7:00  p.m.  EST, 
the  peace  pact  was  signed  before  a  world  television 
audience.  

Newspaper  headlines  lacked  the  enthusiasm 
which  marked  the  end  of  World  War  II.  Newsmen 
previously  reporting  forceful,  positive  facts  about  the 
outco.fie  of  the  war  remain  consrrvative  in  their  opin- 
ions of  the  final  agreement. 

The  Vietnam  War  has  split  the  country  in  two.  It 
has  ushered  in  a  whole  new  generation  of  thought, 
mood  and  expection.  It  has  brought  direct  criticism 
to  all  the  government  and  business  "establishments'" 
that  have  been  molded  for  more  than  a  century. 

Although  America  remains  doubtful  of  the  legiti- 
macy of  the  peace  agreement.  Henry  Kissinger  out- 
lined the  major  details  in  a  90-minute  news  confer- 
ence: 

-145,000  North  Vietnamese  troops  remain  in  South 
Vietnam,  but  their  numbers  should  over  a  period  of 
time  by  subject  to  considerable  reduction  because 
they  cannot  be  reinforced,  resupplied  or  replaced. 

■■-The  release  of  American  prisoners  of  war  held 
in  North  Vietnam  and  Laos  will  begin  by  mid-February 
in  Hanoi  and  will  be  completed  at  15-day  intervals 
during  the  60-day  period  when  U.S.  troops  are  being 
withdrawn  from  the  South 

■■—The  political  independence  of  South  Vietnam  is 
guaranteed  and  its  future  form,  including  the  fate  of      "J^^' 
President  Nguyen  Van  Thieus  government,  will  be     Jonathan 
determined,  without  outside  interference,  by  the 
South  Vietnamese  themselves. 

■■—A  National  Council  on  National  Reconciliation 
and  Concord  will  be  organized  among  the  South  Viet- 
namese themselves  on  a  three-part  basis  solely  to 
organize  the  elections  and  implementation  of  the 
agreement,  not  to  act  in  any  way  as  a  coalition  govern- 
ment 

The  "final  peace  negotiation  and  its  aftermath  will 
bring  about  a  new  domestic  interest  from  Americans. 
Hopefully  America's  next  generation  will  attain  the 
goals  of  national  prosperity  and  world  peace. 


Longhair  emerges  clean 


Edilors  Note: 

The  following  satire  was  written 
by  Leonard  Morris  ror  ttie  Ball 
Stale  Daily  News 

I  had  my  hair  cut  a  couple  of 
weeits  ago. 

II  was  a  relatively  simple  opera- 
hon.  Filteen  minutes  under  thie  bar- 
bers  shears  and  I  was  de-lreaked, 
translormed  (rom  a  disreputable- 
looking  weirdo  to  a  clean-cut  col- 
lege boy  ibal  any  father  would  trust 
with  his  daughter  s  virtue. 

A  few  days  later,  a  friend  stopped 
by  to  see  me  and  almost  fainted 
when  he  saw  my  naked  ears. 

■'Oh  wow  man,"  he  said.  "How 
could  you?  I  mean— why,  man?" 

"I  gol  tired  of  it." 

"Well,  listen  Now  thai  you've 
changed,  can  I  have  all  your  old  Led 
Zeppelin  records?" 

"Hell  no.  Getting  a  haircut  didn't 
change  my  taste  in  music.  I  still  like 
to  listen  lo  old  Zep,* 

"Really?  When,  man?  Before  or 
alter  you  trip  out  on  the  Partridge 
Family?' 

He  was  shaking  his  shaggy  head 
in  disbelief  when  he  left. 

That  was  only  the  beginning. 

Some  of  my  long-haired  acquain- 
tances began  avoiding  me  They 
stopped  latking  when  1  entered  a 
room  and  gave  me  slrange  looks 

People  began  lo  point  at  me  and 


whisper  I  only  heard  bits  and 
pieces  of  what  they  said  . . .  "Estab- 
lishment ,  .  .  straight  ,  .  ,  sellout  . 
,    Joe  College  , 

Street  people  who  used  to  pull 
me  aside  and  try  to  sell  me  drugs 
now  tugged  at  my  sleeves  and 
asked  if  1  had  spare  change 

Store  cterks  now  laughed  when 
I  asked  to  see  bell  bottom  [eans. 

I  became  paranoid  whenever  I  got 
close  to  anyone  who  even  vagueiy 
resembled  some  kind  of  a  hippie 
Be  careful.  I'd  command  myself,  or 
hell  think  you  re  a  narc. 

The  only  other  time  in  my  lile  I 
caught  as  much  flak  over  anything 
was  when  I  decided  to  let  my  hair 
gro>    long  in  the  first  place 

Then  it  was  my  neatly-groomed 
friends  who  hassled  me— avoided 
me,  gave  me  strange  looks,  whis- 
pered behind  my  back:  "       Animal 

.  queer  ,  .  ,  Commiedoper  . 
Dirty  pervert  .  , 

I  prepared  a  speech  for  my  freak- 
ish friends — the  same  speech  I  had 
given  lo  my  straight  Inends  years 
before.  It  was  a  beautiful 
speech — lull  ol  righteous  indigna- 
tion and  cold,  hard  logic— all  about 
judging  books  by  their  cover, 
searching  for  the  inner  man.  look- 
ing beneath  the  superficial  masks 
It  closed  with  an  eloquent  plea 
What's  really  so  important  about 


the  length  of  a  persons  hair?  (This 
line  has  since  become  famous) 

I  never  got  a  chance  to  use  the 
speech. 

Because    something    odd    hap- 
pened   I  lelt  a  change  come  over 
me,  new  thoughts  began  creeping 
into  my  head.  I  started  doing 
strange  things. 
I  started  wearing  white  socks. 
1  lost  my  appetite  for  marijuana, 
heroin  and  LSD  and  had  a  sudden 
craving  for  Pabst  Blue  Ribbon  Beer  . 
Ilooktwobathsinthesamei  jek, 
I  bought  a  necktie, 
I  stopped  going  lo  orgies  and 
tried  to  gel  three  dilferent  girls  to 
go  sieady  with  me. 

I  burned  my  copy  of  The  Green- 
ing o(  America  and  took  out  a  sub- 
scription lo  Reader's  Digest, 

I  tried  lo  convince  myself  it  wasn't 
happening.  Appearance  doesn't 
really  dictate  behavior  and  belief. 
I  didn't  really  condemn  myself  to  the 
slraighl  and  narrow  by  the  simple 
act  of  getting  a  haircut- 
Think  Ireak,  I  told  myself.  Think 
freak.  Think  Ireak 
It  almost  worked 
But      then      the      worst      hap- 
pened—the very  worst— the  two 
things  that  made  me  realize  I  was 
once  again  a  Normal  Person. 

I  started  wearing  underwear  and 
believing  in  God.

Book  inspires  readers

Instead  of  our  drab 
slobbing  back  and  forth  to 
the  fishing  boats,  there's  a 
reason  to  life!  We  can  lift 
ourselves  out  of  ignorance. 
We  can  be  free.  We  can  learn

Former  President  Lyndon 
Johnson,  one  of  Americas 
greatest  civil  rights 
advocates,  died  last  week 
from  a  long  term  heart  con- 
dition. 

Johnson,  referred  lo  by  all  Ameri- 
cans as  LBJ,  served  during  a  period 
of  history  that  saw  racial  turbulence 
as  well  as  violent  student  activism. 
Ironically,  during  his  administration 
massive  educational  aid  bills  were 
passed  as  well  as  progressive  civil 
rights  laws. 

The  former  president  assumed 
the  Presidency  alter  the  tragic 
assasinationof  President  John  Ken- 
nedy on  November  22,  1963,  and 
became  the  36th  President,  In  1964, 
Johnson  received  overwhelming 
public  support  shown  by  his  land- 
slide victory  against  Senator  Barry 


Goldwaier 

Johnson  was  born  August  27, 
1908  in  Texas,  His  first  elected 
office  was  a  representative  from  his 
home  state  Later  as  a  senator  he 
became  one  of  the  most  powerful 
Democrats  in  Washington  As  Sen- 
ate lulajority  Leader  he  began  his 
unceasing  push  lor  civil  rights. 

During  his  administration, 
Johnson  began  the  exceleralion  of 
our  war  efforts  in  Vietnam.  He  soon 
received  criticism  lor  his  policies 
eventually  forcing  him  to  announce 
his  withdrawal  from  the  1968  elec- 
tion. He  died  on  the  same  day  as 
negotiators  compromised  an  end  to 
what  had  been  his  political  dow- 
nfall 

Johnson  will  always  be  remem- 
bered for  his  strides  in  civil  rights 
and  his  attempts  to  make  America 
conscious  of  its  problems. 


Ex-addicts  help  abusers 


by  Jayne  Langmeyer 

"Make  thy  prayer  unto  Him. and  he  will  hear  thee. " 
(Job  22:  27)  Job's  House,  a  drug  rehabiliation 
center,  is  a  Christ-oriented  program.  The  center  is 
run  by  young  adults  who  have  been  involved  in 
drugs.  "We  all  have  the  same  concern,"  said  Ranelle 
Melton,  21,  who  volunteers  her  time  to  the  program, 
Parn  Graham,  24,  Jelf  Reising,  18.  and  Darrell 
Sroufe,  20,  also  work  from  9  lo  9  in  the  old  city 
utilities  building  on  East  Berry.  "If  the  need  arises, 
we'll  go  24  hours  a  day,"  Darrell  explained. 

Besides  the  lour  young  people  on  the  staff,  there 
is  also  a  doctor,  a  psychiatrist  and  a  nurse  available. 
Friends  turn  junkie 

"Ram,  the  director,  had  moved  out  lo  Colorado 
and  California  and  when  she  came  back  a  lot  of 
her  friends  turned  junkie,"  Darrell  said.  This  was 
their  reasoning  for  opening  the  drug  rehabilitation 
center. 

E  -.plaining  how  an  addict  is  handled.  Ranelle  said. 
"Wt're  Christ-centered.  Humanly  there  is  nothing 
we  (  an  do.  We  do  it  Ihrough  Ihe  Lord." 


"This  program  in  Fort  Wayne  is  money  earning 
but  non-profit  When  we  have  the  money  to  buy 
the  farm  near  Kendallville  it  will  be  used  to  keep 
addicts  for  a  long  time  so  they  can  berehabiliated," 
Darrell  explained. 

"Besides  being  a  drug  rehabilitation  center."  Dar- 
rell explained,  "we're  also  a  music  ministry.  We're 
playing  at  churches  and  we  hope  to  get  into  high 
schools.  We're  discussing  going  into  jails,  boy's 
schools,  etc.  Hopefully,  we'll  lead  people  lo  the 
Lord. 
Miracles  support  program 

Also  to  earn  lunds.  the  group  is  sponsoring  a 
concert  in  March.  They  will  leature  Mike  Johnson, 
a  popular  lolk-rock  singer  on  the  East  coast,  Petrah 
will  also  appear  with  them.  A  play  will  be  presented 
in  the  spring  which  will  be  sponsored  by  Job's 
House.  Additional  details  will  be  available. 

"We're  supported  on  miracles,  "  Ranelle  said. 
"This  whole  program  is  a  miracle,  " 

If  anyone  would  like  to  talk  to  one  ol  the  group,

Seals  &  Crofts  perform  in  city 


By  Janet  Bell 

The  EmDassy  theatre  was 
quief  and  full  of  nods  Wednes- 
day night,  January  24,  as  a  near 
capacity  crowd  mellowed  to  the 
sounds  of  Jim  Seals  and  Dash 
Crofts. 

The  concert  warmed  up  with 
two  guitarists,  with  tunes 
similar  to  the  style  of  Seals  and 
Crofts.  They  played  original 
compositions  with  an  electric 
piano  accompaniment  and 
received  much  applause  from 
ihe  audience 


With  the  intermission  can 
the  warning  that  absolutely  no 
smoking  was  allowed.  The  pro- 
moters warned  that  if  there  was 
any  smoking  the  fire  depart- 
ment, whose  members  were 
present  everywhere,  would 
close  down  the  concert  allow- 
ing no  ticket  refunds.  Much 
worse  than  that  was  the  fact 
that  no  future  concerts  could  be 
performed  if  the  rule  was 
broken.  The  crowd  seemed  to 
understand  this  order  and  com- 
ply with  It,  thus  setting  a  prece- 


Classes  study  death; 
learn  thanatology 

Studying  about  death  at  the  University  of  Cincinnati?  This 
seems  morbid  but  students  have  been  visiting  funeral 
homes,  cemeteries  and  even  the  country  morgue.  In  IVlin- 
neapolis  they  have  gone  so  far  as  to  try  out  a  coffin  for 
size  and  to  make  plans  for  their  ovt/n  funerals. 

Such  activities  may  sound  lil<e  something  out  of  a  horror 
movie,  but  they  are  part  of  a  growing  student  interest 
In  the  subject  of  death.  As  a  result,  young  people  have 
been  talking  newly  organized  courses  in  "thanatology" 
in  some  70  colleges  and  schools  across  the  country. 

At  the  university  of  fvlaryland  students  start  by  learning 
the  ideas  of  ancient  Jev^'S.  Greeks  and  Romans  about  death, 
then  move  into  the  Christian  era  Elsewhere  students  even 
hear  taperecorded  interviews  with  people  who  are  dying 
"To  young  people  death  is  not  morbid  but  exciting  and 
dynamic."  says  Robert  Wolk,  fvlinneapolis  English  Teacher. 

University  of  Minnesota  Sociolist  Robert  Fulton  says, 
"The  point  is  to  bring  a  new  perspective  to  death:  to  show 
that  it  is  natural."  Fulton  finds  that  his  course,  "The 
Sociology  of  Death",  draws  many  English,  history  and 
philosophy  majors.  "Because  so  many  deaths  in  the  U.S. 
now  occur  in  hospitals  or  nursing  homes,  young  people 
have  no  opportunity  to  experience  it  firsthand." 

Another  reason  for  students  interest,  according  to  Univer- 
sity of  Maryland  Health  Education  Professor  Daniel  Leviton, 
"is  the  chance  to  ventilate  their  tears  about  death,"  One 
woman  took  the  course  at  Wayne  State  University  in  Detroit 
in  the  hope  that  it  would  help  her  talk  to  her  stricken  hus- 
band about  his  own  inevitable  death.

dent  tor  concerts  in  the  future 
Intermission  music  interrupted 

After  intermission  music  that 
kept  getting  inlerrupled.  the 
ligfits  lowered  and  Seals  and 
Crofts  walked  onstage  to  a 
warming  applause.  Dash  Crotts 
was  attired  in  bright  red  pants 
and  a  flowered  shirt  while  Seals 
wore  his  traditional  billed  cap 

They  began  their  set  with 
"Hummingbird"  one  of  the 
songs  from  their  Summer 
Breeze  album.  The  clear  har- 
monic tunes  and  Crofts  melodic 
mandolin  floated  through  the 
arena 

Backing  the  duet  was  a  bass 
guitarists  and  a  drummer  who 
appeared  halfway  through  the 
performance.  The  evening  went 
smoothly  and  quietlyas  the  only 
noise  in  the  theatre  was  that  of 
the  occasional  shouting  for  a 
request 
Unusual  number  presented 

Seals  and  Crofts  presented 
an  instrumental  number  which 
was  an  unusual  treat.  Their  bass 
guitarists  played  the  flute  while, 
Jim  Seals  accompanied  with 
the  saxaphone.  Crofts  played  a 
harpsichord  which  produced 
some  nice  blending  music. 


Later  in  the  show.  Jim  Seals 
got  out  his  fiddle  proceeded  lo 
play  what  he  learned  m  Texas 
as  a  boy,  "some  thigh  slappin 
hot  callin'  music'  This  got  the 
audience  on  their  feet  quickly 
Dash  Crofts  asked  the  hog 
caller  in  the  crowd  to  let  go  and 
they  did.  Everyone  was  stomp- 
ing and  clapping  as  three 
ushers  who  were  dressed  like 
h^afta  men  came  dancing  down 
the  center  aisle  arm  in  arm 
Crowd  goes  wild 

The  show  went  on  with  [usl 
nbout  everybody  up  and  bopp- 


ing as  Crofts  played  some  dif- 
ferent tunes  with  his  wa-wa 
pedal 

Many  Seals  and  Crofts  lyrics 
are  based  on  the  Baha  1  faith 
and  are  quotes  from  the  scrip- 
tures They  devoted  a  few 
minutes  toward  Ihe  end  of  the 
concert  to  explain  about  their 
faith  and  the  god  Baha'u'llah 
The  duet  then  invited  everyone 
who  was  interested  in  their 
religion  lo  a  gathering  where 
they  would  discuss  it  more 
deeply  and  its  foundations  after 
(he  concert  at  the  Keenan  hotel. 


Senior   visits    island 


by  Tammy  Schecter 

From  Ihe  looks  of  senior  Donna 
Nolan,  one  would  think  she'd  spent 
a  relaxing  two  weeks  in  Florida. 
Over  Christmas  vacation,  Donna 
did  enioy  the  sun,  swimming  and 
sightseeing,  only  her  (ourney  was 
a  bit  more  extensive  than  Florida 
Eagertouseher  knowledge  of  three 
years  ol  Spanish  and  well  prepared 
with  a  year's  savings.  Donna 
enjoyed  a  long  anticipated  trip  to 
Puerto  Rico. 

Donna  was  pari  of  a  large  group 
which  included  her  brother  and 
sisler-in-iaw  along  with  their  five 
children.  Donna's  special  compan- 
ion was  a  very  good  friend  who  is 
a  senior  at  Concordia  High  School 
Donna  uses  language 

Outside  of  knowing  and  wanting 
to  use  Spanish,  Puerto  Rico  held 
a  special  atlraclion  for  Donna.  She 
has  a  distant  relative  who  is  a  native 
born  Puerto  Rican  living  In  San 
Juan. 

"Having  Charlie  there  was  really 
a  great  help."  said  Donna.  "He  had 
friends  who  owned  apartments,  so 
we  were  able  10  spend  most  of  our 
time  staying  m  these  apartments, 
tree  of  charge  ' 

She  went  on  lo  comment  on  the 
homes  themselves.  "Only  the  very 
rich  people  have  windows  and 
screens.  Insects  and  annoying  bugs 
are  no  problem  so  there's  really  no 
need.  Most  ol  the  middle  class  and 
all  of  the  poor  people  |ust  have  cur- 
tains_to  keep  the  light  out,'

the  city  seems  to  almost  sparkle. 
Banana  trees  are  always  popping 
up  out  of  nowhere  which  kind  of 
lakes  you  by  surprise."  she  added. 

Oonna  found  that  the  people  she 
met  were  all  very  nice.  'Ninely-five 
percent  ot  the  people  I  met  spoke 
Spanish,  but  it  was  much  easier  lor 
them  to  understand  me  than  it  was 
lor  me  to  understand  them." 

The  only  thing  that  Oonna  really 
disliked  was  the  overpopulated 
mountains.  "The  mountains  are  just 
thick  with  camillJons,"  she  said.  We 
camped  out  a  few  nights  but  I  was 
always  so  afraid  ol  waking  up  and 
finding  one  next  to  my  pillow!" 
Visitors  create  commotion 

Donna  also  commented  on  the 
reactions  from  the  Puerto  Ricans 
themselves.  It's  not  an  everyday 
thing  for  two  blue-eyed  blondes  to 
go  walking  down  the  streets  of  San 
Juan.'  said  Donna.  'We  learned 
early  enough  not  to  wear  shorts. 
The  girls  generally  wear  shifts,  and 
we  created  quite  a  commotion  that 
first  day!" 

rviany  people  seem  to  think 
Puerto  Ricans  are  very  dark 
skinned,"  shewenton."'Asa  matter 
of  tact,  it  it  wasn't  lor  the  sun,  a

The  1973  edition  of  the 
Elmhurst  track  team  made 
fine  showings  in  two  pre- 
season track  meets  in 
Bloomington  on  the  13th 
and  20th  of  January,  The 
team  had  numerous  second, 
third  and  fourth  place 
finishes  in  the  highly  com- 
petitive contests.   Both 

Foreman  scores  upset 
in  heavyweight  fight 

George  Foreman,  big  and  confident,  surprised  the  bOKing  world 
by  taking  the  world  heavy  weight  title  from  Joe  Frazier.  The  fighting  look 
place  in  Kingston  Jamaica  where  three-to-one  favorite  Joe  Frazier  was 
knocked  down  sm  limes  and  lost  on  a  technical  knockout  in  the  second 
round 

The  24-year-old  Foreman  took 
charge  from  the  start  m  handling 
Frazier  his  first  loss  in  thirty  pro 
fights  The  ease  with  which  Fore- 
man handled  the  defending  champ- 
ion made  the  outcome  one  of  Ihe 
most  siunning  upsets  in 
heavyweight  bo«ing  history 
Referee  stops  light 

The  end  came  with  Frazier  reeling 
around  around  the  ring  after  the 
sixth  knockdown  with  blood  gush- 
ing from  his  mouth.  Releree  Arthur 
Mercante  signalled  Ihe  end  ol  the 
light 

Before  the  fight,  Frazier  had  pre- 
dicted Foreman  would  not  be  able 
to  last  15  rounds  wilh  him.  but  on 
this  night  il  was  Frazier  who  was 
the  gunled  and  at  the  end  a  badly 
beaten  pulp  of  his  former  self 

The  fight  luslified  critics  who  had 
said  Frazier  s  grueltng  15-round 
viclory  over  Muhammad  AM  in  1971 
had  taken  too  much  out  of  Frazier 
as  a  lighter  It  also  lelt  in  jeopardy 
a  rematch  between  Frazier  and  Aii 


about  which  guarantees  as  ol  much 
as  S4  million  had  been  mentioned. 
Foreman  answers  charges 

Foreman,  m  his  first  real  test  in 
38  pro  fights,  more  than  answered 
charges  that  he  had  not  met  the 
kind  of  tough  opponents  which 
would  prepare  him  for  a  man  of 
Fraziers  fearsome  credentials 

Foreman  received  the  largest 
purse  Of  his  career.  S375,000,  but 
it's  a  cinch  as  his  next  purse  will 
be  much  greater 

Frazier,  who  was  the  1964  Olym- 
pic heavyweight  champion,  had 
knocked  out  25  of  his  previous  29 
opponents,  all  of  them  wilh  vicious 
punching  and  pressure  tactics  Ihat 
wore  them  down.  But  against  Fore- 
man, Frazier  was  merely  a  shell  of 
his  former  self

University's  new  220-yard

as  one  of  the  fastest  indoor

Indiana  National  High  School 
Indoor  Track  and  Field  Meet.  This 
meet  was  to  bring  teams  from

tunately only  teams  from  Indiana 
were  present  This  was  largely  due 
to  the  cost  ol  transportation.

Brazilian  guest  visits  classes 


I  love  America!  All  my  life  I  think  about 
whan  I  come  here,  "  exclaimed  Yacy 
Pereira,  a  Brazilian  exchange  student  who 
is  presently  staying  with  senior  Cindy 
Hunt. 

Yacy  has  been  in  the  United  States  since 
Jan,  25  and  will  leave  late  m  February  She 
is  studying  chemical  engineering  at  the 
'ederal  university  in  her  town,  Fortaleza. 
"We  have  classes  in  the  morning,  after- 
noon and  three  nights  a  week,"  she 
ejtplained  In  Brazil,  students  enter  col- 
'ege  at  17  years  and  study  for  live  years, 
wnen  i  i^ame  to  New  York,  I  weighed 
100  pounds  and  now  I  weigh  125  pounds," 
the  20-year-old  Brazilian  laughed.  She 
'oves  ice  cream  and  Big  Boys  along  with 
3ll  the  other  "sweet"  American  food. 
Yacy  aiscussea  dlfferenc^n 

Yacy  commented  of  the  United  States, 
'It  is  more  developed  than  Brazil.  We  do 
lot  have  too  many  machines."  The 
Brazilians  are  either  very  poor  or  very  rich 
wiih  a  very  small  middle  class,  according 
Id  Yacy.  She  was  awed  by  our  numerous 
electrical  devices  She  said,  "Here  you 
have  machines  tor  everything  -  Coke 
fTiachines.  ice-cream  machines,  washing 
niachines,  ,  - 

In  examining  culture  differences,  she 


commented,  "The  brazmans  are  m^.o 
affectionate.  Americans  are  a  little  cold," 
The  people  in  Brazil  kiss  on  both  cheeks 
when  meeting  one  another.  One  word 
described  American  boys,  "Crazy!"  She 
said  young  people  in  Brazil  seem  happier 
than  in  America. 

Brazil  has  no  prohibition  or  drinking 
age.  Yacy  grandly  gestured,  "Everybody 
drinks  and  it  is  no  big  problem.  We  drink 
anytime  " 
Senior  comments  Jokingly 

Cindy  jumped  in  to  say,  "My  brother 
gave  her  a  very  strong  drink  and  she  just 
drank  it  down.  She  is  used  to  strong 
liquor." 

Problems  on  Brazil  range  very  much  the 
same  as  in  the  United  States.  'Yacy  said 
they  have  air  pollution  and  noise  pollution 
but  the  drug  problem  isn't  as  great. 
"Drugs  are  very  expensive  in  Brazil,  The 
boys  have  to  have  much  money  to  buy 
them.  The  problem  is  only  in  the  big 
cities,"  sheemphasized.  In  her  small  town, 
there  is  no  problem. 

Recently  the  United  Stales  has  fallen 
back  in  popularity  with  foreign  nations 
mainly  because  ol  the  Vietnam  war,  but 
Yacy  maintains  the  Brazilians  like  Ameri- 
cans. "Americans  help  Brazilians  and  give 
things  to  poor  people,"  she  said. 


Yacy  continued,  "The  Vietnam  war  is 
bad.  I  want  to  know  why  the  United  States 
is  staying  in  Vietnam  but  I  believe  that  if 
American  men  come  back,  the  war  is 
finished. 

Cindy  said  Yacy  can  speak  three  lan- 
guages including  Spanish,  Portugese 
(Brazilian),  English  and  she  also  studied 
German  but  cannot  speak  il.  "When  she 
first  came  here,  she  couldn't  talk  much 
Now  she  really  talks  well, "  Cindy  com- 
mented. 

According  to  Yacy,  American  things  are 
veryexpensive  in  Brazil  although  Brazilian 
goods  are  relatively  inexpensive.  She  also 
said  the  value  of  Brazilian  money  is  very 
low.  One  dollar  in  American  money  is  the 
equivalent  of  six  Brazilians  dollars,  "It  you 
have  American  money  in  Brazil,  you  can 
buy  many  things!"  Yacy  gestured 

Club  sponsors  program 

The  local  Kiwanis  CiuD  is  sponsoring 
the  exchange  students  as  part  of  the 
Experiment  in  International  Living  Prog- 

Yacy  has  attended  all  the  basketball 
games  and  a  tew  Lantern  dances.  "She's 
just  like  an  American.  Her  ideas  are  just 
the  same  as  ours  and  she  does  the  same 
things,"  Cindy  concluded.

Parking  lot  disrupts 
students'  activities 

■|  have  to  leave  at  noon  today  for  a  doctor's  appoint- 
ment." 

"I'm  sorry,  but  you'll  have  to  wait  until  2:35  p.m.  if  your 
car  is  parked  in  the  school  parking  lot  " 

"Why?  I  have  permission  from  my  parents." 

'Yes  but  if  your  car  is  parked  in  the  lot  it  will  take  a 
couple  of  hours  to  find  out  who  owns  the  cars  blocking 
yours  in  and  then  more  time  yet  for  the  owners  to  move 
their  car." 

Have  you  ever  noticed  the  technique  student  drivers  have 
been  using  to  park  their  cars  lately?  Perhaps  not.  It's  called 
the  "Block  all  Cars"  technique. 

The  oblecl  of  this  new  way  of  parking  Is  to  try  and  block 
as  many  as  you  can,  so  you  can  be  the  first  one  out 
of  the  parking  lot  after  school.  One  by  one.  the  cars  leave 
the  lot.  the  ones  in  the  middle  of  this  "parking  lot  traffic 
jam  "  being  forced  to  wait  until  everyone  else  is  gone. 

Even  if  your  car  isn't  stuck  in  the  middle  of  a  lot  of  unmov- 
ing  cars,  it  is  sometimes  difficult  to  maneuver  safely  to 
the  road.  There  seems  to  be  a  huge  chuckhole  near  the 
stone  lot,  not  lo  mention  the  ditch  separating  the  stone 
and  blacktop  lots.  Doesn't  it  sound  lovely  to  have  your  car 
scrape  the  lovely  dirt  of  Elmhurst's  parking  lot? 

Let's  say  you  managed  to  get  out  of  the  lot  before  sup- 
pertime  and  you're  now  on  Sandpoint  road  waiting  to  turn 
onto  Ardmore.  Ever  notice  how  many  people  you  have  to 
avoid  so  you  don't  hit  them?  A  lot  of  people  seem  to  think 
they're  immune'to  traffic  fatalities. 

What  Is  even  harder  than  turning  onto  Ardmore  is  turn- 
ing onto  Sandpoint  at  about  2:40  p.m.  Students  seem  to 
think  this  road  turns  into  a  one  way  street  about  then 
and  It's  Impossible  to  pass  these  cars  and  turn  into  the 
parking  lot. 

All  in  all,  if  you  have  a  boring  day  in  classes,  going  home 
can  prove  to  be  pretty  adventurous  (especially  if  you  drive 
to  school).

Editor's  Note:  This  is  the  first  in  a  series  of  controversiai  ques- 
tions answered  by  Elmhurst  students  for  the  ADVANCE. 
Do  you  see  any  necessity  to  guarantee  women  absolute  equality 
through  the  Equal  Rights  Amendment? 

Women  should  have  equal 
buying  rights.  For  example,  il 
is  hard  to  get  credit,  to  buy 
property,  or  get  a  loan  in  her 
name.  I  am  opposed  to  women 
lighting  though,  senior  KikI 
Paris. 

I  am  opposed  to  the  Equal 
Rights  Amendment  for  women 
because  I  feel  that  women  really 
don't  need  it.  A  woman  was 
made  for  man  and  should  be 
looked  upon  as  so.  She  is  sup- 
posed to  be  a  wife  as  well  as 
a  mother.  What  other  rights 
does  she  need  other  than  her 
God  given  ones.  In  my  opinion, 
woman  should  stick  to  the 
rights  she  already  has.  Sherry

"Norwegian  schools  were 
pretty  much  like  yours  years 
ago,  but  there  was  so  nuich 
rebelling  among  the  stu- 
dents that  they  had  to 
change,"  said  Miss  Anne 
Welle-Strand,  Elmhurst's 
guest  in  the  Experiment  in 
International  Living. 


"Schools  really  belong  lo  !he 
kids,"  she  stated,  "They  are  the 
ones  that  have  to  slay  there  for  so 
many  years,  " 

Two  schools  in  Norway  have 
taken  on  a  fevolutionary  system  of 
leaching,  Sludenls  control  their 
own  government  in  Ihe  schools 
Norwegian  studenls  are  satisfied 
with  the  system  because  it  consists 
of  Iheir  ideas.  Unlike  Fori  Wayne 
schools,  students  in  Norwegian 
schools  do  not  look  at  school  as 
being  a  hassel.

"Once  a  week,  a  day  is  sel  aside 
for  class  meetings,  said  Miss 
Welle-Strand,  'Everyone  who  is 
interested  meels  in  the  cafeteria 
and  talks  with  the  principal  Discip- 
line rules  and  the  screeping  o( 
teachers  ars  among  the  topics  dis- 
cussed at  these  meelings. 

So  far,  they  ve  never  fired  a 
teacher,  because  only  special  kinds 
of  teachers  are  hired  "  Teachers 
work  with  the  studer,L;i  in  these 
schools,  not  on  them.  Con- 
sequently, the  kids  are  more 
satisfied 

■  Classes  are  35-40  minutes 
long,"  stated  Miss  Welle-Strand 
'There  are  15-minute  breaks 
belween  classes  where  students 
can  go  outside  or  do  what  they 
want,"  she  added-  "This  gives  Ihem 
the  chance  to  get  plenty  of  fresh 
aif-" 

"H  you  don't  feel  like  going  to 
school,  you  don't  go,"  said  Miss 
Welle-Strand.  "Students  write  their 
own  e«cuse  slips  and  tell  Ihe  real 
reason  why  they  weren't  at  school. 
They  don  t  have  lo  lie  it  they  don'l 
want  to  go  to  school  lor  a  day  or 
two  they  say  |ust  that. 
Schools  abollst>  grades 

tirades  and  credits  are  not  issues 
in  the  schools.  Classes  are  on  a 
yearly  pass.'tail  basis.  Studenls 
know  the  requirements  and  work  to 
meet  them  on  an  individual  basis. 
Under  the  no-grade  system,  slu- 
denls are  not  pressured  into  com- 
pelilion  with  each  other. 

"Educators  were  very  negative 
about  the  system  at  first,  '  Miss 
'i  Welle-Strand  reflected,  "They  said 
This  will  never  work.'  With  time, 
students  and  faculty  proved  them 
wrong."

Editor's  Note:  This  is  the  second  in  a  continuing

Elmhurst  students  with  their  community.  This

DRUG  ABUSE  EDUCATION 

The  recent  Drug  Abuse  Education  Program 
adopted  by  the  Fort  Wayne  Community  Schools 
is  certainly  timely,  appropriate,  and  necessary. 
However,  those  who  see  it  as  a  panacea  tor  the 
problems  faced  by  students  in  either  the  elemen- 
tary or  secondary  schools  are  destined  for  disap- 
pointment. It  is  important  that  students  gain  the 
facts  about  the  problems  associated  with  drug 
abuse  in  as  objective  manner  as  possible.  It  is 
also  important  that  students  see  the  much  larger 
picture  of  the  problems  created  for  our  society 
by  drug  abuse.  This  should  be  a  part  of  their 
general  education. 

However,  experience  with  campaigns  to 
eliminate  the  smoking  of  tobacco  and  the  use 
of  alcoholic  beverages  has  shown  that  know- 
ledge of  the  facts  does  not  in  many  instances 
have  any  noticeable  effect  upon  the  behavior  of 
the  individual.  Even  though  the  harmful  effects 
of  the  use  of  tobacco  and  alcohol  are  acknow- 
ledged by  most  experts,  this  knowlege  has  not 
had  any  great  effect  upon  the  consumption  of 
these  products  by  the  individuals  in  our  society.

Album  relies  on  boogie 


Featuring  gioniied 
boogie,  Captain  Beyond 
presents,  a  kind  of  new  face 
to  fast  dying  hard  rock 
music. 

Captain  Beyond's  first 
album  has  sold  in  Fort 
Wayne  remarkably  well  for  a 
new  group.  Actually  its  no 
surprise,  considering  Ft. 
Wayne  dwells  on  boogie 
music. 

<he  gioum  uoesii  i  present  any 
thing  ne  wor  unusual  to  rock  freaks, 
but  it  d(  es  show  at  least  someone 


can  still  produce  appealing  rocK 
music  without  a  completely  prog- 
ressive sound  such  as  Yes. 
Guitar  distinguishes  song 

The  first  song.  Dancing  Madly 
Backwards,  combines  hard  driving 
percussion  and  haunting  vocals 
found  almost  throughout  the  entire 
album  The  first  side  of  the  album 
continues  with  little  noticeable  dif- 
ference between  songs  except  for 
occasional  flashy  guitar  leads 

The  second  side:  however, 
destroysthemonoiony  ilvou're  wil- 
ling to  sit  through  until  then  Vocals 
take  precedent  m  the  beginning 
with  acousiical  guitar  work. 

If  you're  hooked  on  boogie  this 


aiDum  was  made  for  you.  The  album 
was  arranged  and  produced  by 
Captain  Beyond  and  published  by 
Starship  Music.  


effects  of  alcohol  and  tobacco  are  themselves 
consumers  of  these  products. 
In  spite  of  what  some  of  the  critics  of  public 
school  education  say,  the  schools  have  been  very 
successful  in  teaching  skills  such  as  reading, 
writing,  and  arithmetic.  They  have  also  been  suc- 
cessful m  teaching  many  concepts  which  are 
important  to  the  general  education  of  the 
indivudual.  Schools  have  been  much  less  suc- 
cessful in  changing  the  attitudes,  values,  and 
behavior. 

At  this  time,  no  solution  for  eliminating  the  prob- 
lem of  drug  abuse  is  known.  While  it  is  generally 
agreed  that  students  need  the  facts  about  drug 
abuse  for  their  general  education,  it  is  also  ack- 
nowledged that  such  information  is  not  to  any 
great  extent  a  solution  to  the  problem.  If  our 
schools  can  do  a  good  job  in  helping  students 
understand  themselves,  understand  their  fellow 
man  and  determine  their  relationship  to  the  uni- 
verse, it  is  likely  that  they  will  have  a  greater 
impact  upon  not  only  the  problem  of  drug  abuse, 
but  also  many  of  the  other  problems  which  are 
in  the  emotional  and  social  realm.  Efforts  in  the 
future,  as  they  have  been  in  the  past,  should  be 
directed  toward  helping  students  become 
mature,  capable  people  with  appropriate  self- 
images,  who  have  the  necessary  education  and 
skills  to  become  productive  citizens.

Teacher   selects    films 

by  Barb  Nowak 

"I  began  collecting  films 
in  1969  and  bought  mostly 
funny  movies,"  replied  Mr. 
Dale  Pequinot.  "They're 
much  better  than  anything 
on  at  the  theatres  in  town 
right  now." 

Mr.  Pequinot  slarled  his  collec- 
tions of  old  flicks  as  a  result  of  an 
ad  he  saw  in  a  photography 
magazine  He  sent  away  (or  infor-

receive  now  come  from  Iowa." 

The  movies  which  Mr.  Pequinot 
has  are  all  of  the  silent  tilm  type. 
"I  don't  have  the  equipment  needed 
tof  talking  films  yet."  said  Mr. 
Pequinot.  This  group  ol  silent  flicks 
include  such  old  time  stars  as  W. 
C.  Fields,  Laurel  and  Hardy.  Charlie 
Chan,  and  Mr  Pequinol's  favorite,

Chess  for  three?  Believe  it  or 
not,  innovators  of  chess  have

Invented  recently  by  Univer- 
sity of  Rochester  sophomore, 
Robert  Zubrin,  is  a  game  of 
three  player  chess.  It  uses  a 
hexagonal  board  with  96 
squares.  The  pieces  are  identi-

ing  a  higher  position  and  point-

Zubrin  is  trying  to  sell  his 
idea  to  toy  manufacturers  for 
distribution  in  the  US.  His 
three-handed  chess  game  is 
currently  being  sold  in  three 
European  countries 


with  this,  he  has  ttie  1926  silent 
films  version  of  the  Phantom  of  the 
Opera,  This  movie  has  been  revised 
twice  since. 

Mr.  Pequinot  feels  the  silent  films 
are  the  greatest  and  that  he  isnl 
interest  in  the  new  movies,  but  likes 
the  old  ones. 

Added  to  his  hobby  of  collecting 
old  movies,  Mr.  Pequinot  is  also 
active  in  the  film  club.  "The  club 
IS  open  to  anyone  interested." 
Through  this  club,  he  helps  choose 
movies  thai  are  run  at  11  30  every 
Saturday  night  at  Georgetown 
Theatre. 

"People  can  come  and  watch 
movies  they  don't  usually  see," 
added  Mr.  Pequinot.  These  types  of 
films  conclude  revivals,  films  from 
the  30's,  silent,  and  foreign  films. 
"The  rental  on  the  films  are  cheaper 
when  running  for  a  club,"  he  con- 
cluded.

"This  declaration  is  for  the  pur- 
pose of  informing  your  government 
and  people  of  your  intention  to  have 
friendly  and  peaceful  relations  with 
the  United  Slates  of  America, 
whose  recognition  of  the  Republic 
of  Minervw  would  be  most  wel- 
come." 

No.  this  isn't  an  article  about  the 
recent  end  of  the  Vietnam  war. 
Rather,  it  is  one  dealing  with  the 
above  declaration,  the  declaration 
which  was  sent  to  President 
Richard  Nixon  by  the  self- 
proclaimed  president  of  the  newly 
found  Utopia.  Minen/a, 

President  Morris  Davis  of  the 
Republic  of  Minen/a  sent  the  decla- 
ration to  President  Nixon  the  day 
his  friends  laid  claim  to  a  small 
group  of  reefs  located  380  miles 
south  of  Suva,  Fiji,  in  the  name  of 
Minerva.  By  placing  a  large  pole 
bearing  a  flag  of  blue  with  a  gold 
torch  in  the  largest  reel,  Thurlow 
Weed  of  Cleveland,  Ohio  and  Bob 
Marks  of  Long  Beach,  Califofnia 
announced  the  establishment  of 
the  newest  Utopian  nation. 
Davia  states  opinion 

"The  whole  world  will  soon  sit  up 
and  take  notice  of  Minen/a,"  states 
Davis.  "VWilhin  five  years  at  least 
1000  ships  will  fly  the  flag  of 
Minerva." 

He  also  hopes  that  American 
firms  will  incorporate  in  his  lax-free 
republic. 

So  far,  the  Republic  is  being 
financed  by  Davis'  private  com- 
pany. Carribean-Pacific  Enter- 
prises, formed  for  the  specific  pur- 
pose of  establishing  a  new  nation 
on  earth. 
King  lays  claim 

"Once  we  have  one  permanent 
resident  on  one  of  the  reels,  we 
qualify  under  international  law  as 
a  legal,  bona  fide  nation  We  will 
pying  territory  claimed  by 
no  other  country  "  Davis  and  his 
wife  wish  to  be  the  first  residents. 
But  they  had  better  hurry  because 
the  king  of  nearby  Tpnga,  King  Tauf 


Ahaw  Tupow,  had  also  laid  claim 
lo  these  unknown  reefs. 

Development  of  the  reefs,  which 
includes  major  landfill  operations 
would  offer  many  jobs  to  the  Ton- 
gans  So  far  the  reefs  are  pretty 
sterile,  no  trees,  grass,  plants  or 
flowers- 
Davls  writes  constitution 

"Well, you cantbetoo fussy  How 
many  people  get  a  chance  to  be 
president  of  a  country  in  their 
lifetime?" 

There  will  be  no  taxes  in 
Minerva  People  will  be  free  to  do 
as  they  damn  please  without  gov- 
ernment inlerferance." 

President  Davis  went  on  to  say 
the  government  will  have  nothing 
to  do  with  education  and  will  allow 
gambling,  drinking,  and  pornog- 
raphy to  take  place.  Nothing  will  be 
illegal  so  long  as  it  does  not  infringe 
upon  the  rights  of  others. 

Anyone  interested  in  the  Repub- 
lic of  Minerva,  perhaps  wishing 
further  information  as  to  moving  to 
the  reefs  should  write  President 
Morris  Davis  at  his  Executive  Cham- 
bers, located  at  426  E  Washington, 
Orange,  California.  92666.

■You  have  to  sacrifice  a  lot  of  things 
tor  the  time  you  spend  practicing,'  said 
senior  Jeff  Hibler  as  he  summed  up  the 
requirements  lor  playing  basketball. 
Other  team  members  related  their  experi- 
ences and  aspirations  concerning  the 
game. 

Junior  Kevin  Howell  commented  on  his  pre- 
parations lor  a  game.  'I  go  home,  sleep  and  eat 
trench  fries.  I  remain  sort  of  blank  and  don't 
ge(  excited. " 

In  junior  high  school,  Kevin  was  voted  the  most 
valuable  player  and  captain  of  the  team  He 
began  playing  basketball  in  the  eighth  grade 
;i  was  horrible  then!"  Kevin  commented.  The 
junior  also  participates  in  'Recreation  Night "  at 
Weisser  Park  where  he  plays  more  basketball 
on  Monday,  Wednesday  and  Thursday  nights. 
Player  controls  others 

During  a  baskeiball  game  Kevin  tries  to  "keep 
the  other  players  under  control."  He  said,  'I  try 
to  keep  the  winning  streak  and  keep  the  people 
coming  " 

He  further  stated,  "All  I  hear  is  the  players  con- 
versing. If  I  listen  to  the  people,  it  breaks  my 
concentration." 

Although  Kevin,  a  top-scoring  player  for  the 
Trojans,  has  no  ideas  where  he  would  like  to 
attend  college,  but  he  did  comment  that  he 
would  like  to  major  in  pre-law. 

Players  need  desire 

Senior  Gob  Paschall,  a  whizzer  on  the  court. 


feels  a  good  basketball  player_  needs  self- 
cietermination  and  the  desire  to  be  numbeToffeT 
■  Physically.  I  think  he  needs  lo  be  alert  and  able 
to  think  m  tigtil  situations,  "  he  stated. 

In  describing  his  roulme  prior  to  a  game,  he 
said,  "I  try  not  to  eat  and  I  relax  if  I  can.  I  concen- 
trate mostly  on  being  mentally  ready,"  Bob  con- 
tinued, "During  the  week  as  the  coach  goes  over 
theassignmenis  )  car,  makeup  in  my  mind  what 
I  m  going  to  do  and  concentrate  on  that  until 
the  day  of  the  game  " 

Bob  said  he  does  not  wear  kneepads  and 
therefore  receives  numerous  bruises  during  a 
game  If  I  get  bruises  during  games  it  lells  me 
I  ve  worked  hard  If  my  legs  donl  hurl  in  some 
way.  ii  tells  me  I  didn  t  play  hard  enough,"  he 
emphasized 

Bob  stays  confident 

I  hold  in  my  mind  at  all  times  that  I  am  better 
than  my  opponent.  I  have  to  stay  confident."  he 
Slated  firmly. 

I  started  playing  basketball  when  I  was  live 
years  old  at  a  garage.  Later  as  I  grew,  I  came 
in  contact  more  with  the  game  and  played  with 
friends  older  than  myself,'  Bob  said.  Last  year 
he  and  Jell  Hibler  were  voted  the  players  with 
the  best  menial  attitude. 

Bob  (eels  a  player  should  stay  away  from  smok- 
ing and  drinking  because  in  order  to  "go  out 
and  play  a  full  game,  your  body  has  lo  be  in 
top  shape  to  give  100  per  cent." 

Altitude 

Jelf  said  a  player  has  lo  "psyche  himself  up 
in  his  mind  and  say  you  are  going  to  have  a 
good  game. ' 

During  a  game,  Jeff  concentrates  on  not  mak- 
ing mistakes,  "I  can  hear  the  crowd  roar  when 
a  bucket  is  scored  but  it  is  drowned  out  when 
I  am  playing,"  he  added.  Jeff  also  revealed  he 
wears  red  wristbands  for  good  luck. 

Senior  John  Adams  tries  to  run  a  normal  life 
the  day  of  a  game.  "I  try  not  to  let  the  game 
bother  me,"  he  commented. 

He  feels  a  good  basketball  player  must  main- 
tain a  good  mental  attitude,  be  physically  and 
mentally  prepared  and  stay  in  condition.  John 
said  he  hears  nothing  during  a  game.  "I  heard 
nothing  when  we  played  North  Side.  Everybody 
was  yelling  but  I  heard  nothing.  I  concentrate 
on  when  the  coach  is  going  to  let  me  in,"  he 
joked 


TOURNEY     TIME 


by  Tom  Jarjour 

Elmhurst  Fighting  Trojans  combined 
hustle  and  good  balanced  scoring  last 
Friday  night  as  they  trounced  New  Haven 
18-58  in  the  last  home  game  of  the  season 

Alter  Elmhurst  got  the  opening  tip, 
junior  Don  Taylor  hit  one  of  his  famous 
shots  to  give  (he  Trojans  a  lead  they 
lelinquished  but  once.  With  the  help  of 
alullcourtpressand  the  holhand  of  junior 
Julius  Stevens,  the  score  was 


The  fourth  quarter  saw  Elmhursfs  field 
mainly  a  line  up  of  reserves.  They  came 
out  doing  a  good  [ob  as  they  amassed  21 
points  tor  the  fourth  20  point  period  of 
the  night  for  Elmhurst.  Adams  and  senior 
lyatt  Hunter  fouled  out  later  in  the  game 

Elmhurst  hit  a  devastating  53  per  cent 
from  the  field  as  no  less  than  eleven 
Trojans  scored  in  the  game  Leading  the 
wa'v  was  Taylor  with  20,  junior  Kevin 
Howell  witti  18,  Adams  with  16,  and  Ste- 


22-15,  Elmhurst  at  the  quarter. 


At  the  outset  of  the  second  quarter,  New 
Haven  appeared  to  have  caught  on  to  the 
Trojans.  Senior  John  Adams  then  took 
orer  where  Stevens  left  off  and  scored  10 
points  coming  off  the  bench  to  lead 
Elmhurst  lo  a  44-29  lead  at  halftime 

The  Trojans  again  got  off  on  the  right 
loot  in  the  second  half  with  a  basket  by 
Taylor  from  outside.  The  third  period  was 
allElmhurst  as  they  out-scored  their  oppo- 
nenl  23-10  and  built  an  unsermountable 
lead  of  67-39, 


vens  with  12.  Vidraof  New  Haven  pumpeo 
in  27  points  in  a  losing  cause.  In  all  fair- 
ness, it  must  be  pointed  out  that  New 
Haven  played  without  the  services  of  two 
starters  who  were  out  with  the  flu. 

The  Elmhurst  reserve  team  made  the 
night  complete  by  winning  their 
encounter  50-47  Although  ahead  most  of 
the  game,  they  had  trailed  at  the  end  of 
three  quarters  37-34.  Sophomore  Ray- 
more  Reese  lead  the  winners  with  14 
points  as  fvleyer  of  New  Haven  hit  for  20.

students  disrupt  school 


by  Jayne  Langmeyer 

Racial  disturbances,  fights,  utter  confusion. 
Many  events  seeni  to  get  blown  out  ol  proportion 
especially  with  the  recent  student  disorders  in 
Fort  Wayne.  It  was  recently  said  that  Elmhursl 
was  having  racial  difficulties  while  a  stroll 
through  the  hallways  would  conflict  with  thai 
statement 

Perhaps  a  peaceful  demonstration  would  bet- 
ter define  the  recent  events  at  Elmhurst.  Black 
students  realized  no  programs  were  being 
planned  lor  recoanition  ol  last  week's  Black  His- 


tory Week  Many  of  the  students  congregated 
in  (he  cafeteria  prior  to  a  confrontation  with  prin- 
cipal Charles  Eickhoff. 

The  students  asked  for  some  kind  of  program 
last  week  to  recognize  their  heritage  They  were 
given  permission  to  have  an  assembly  Friday 
morning,  A  committee  of  five  students,  Lee 
Butler,  Chris  Trice,  Vanessa  Coleman,  Don  Taylor 
and  Gabriel  Starks.  organized  the  program. 
Students  request  flag 

Black  students  also  asked  for  a  liberated  flag 
This  represents  the  black  population  with  the  col- 


ors red  for  the  blood  that  has  been  shed,  black 
(or  their  color  and  green  for  iheir  mother  land 

A  black  student  said  of  the  ordeal  last  week. 
We  do  have  grievance  against  the  school,  but 
we  re  at  fault  too.  The  blacks  could  have  planned 
something.  ' 

Another  student  said,  "We  tried  to  wait  to  see 
if  they  were  going  lo  recognize  us,  but  they 
didn  t  This  led  to  action  by  the  black  students. 
Blacks  want  assembly 

I  don  t  think  there  was  a  problem,"  one  stu- 
dent commented  "They  just  wanted  an  assembly 
and  ihey  got  one," 

■|  think  Ihey  were  right  in  what  they  'vanted," 
a  white  student  said.  "They  deserved  an  assem- 
bly and  some  recognition  last  week," 

Plans  (or  a  Brotherhood  Assembly  are  being 
made  by  several  students.  Students  (rom  all 
ethnic  groups  will  be  able  to  participate  in  the

Society  adopts  trends, 
styles  of  earlier  times 

There  is  a  trend  in  modern  circles  of  art  and  living  toward 
a  return  to  the  past  both  in  thought  and  appearance. 

Styles  of  past  years  as  well  as  new  ideas  based  on  past 
words  have  given  today,  a  seasoning  of  old  and  new  that 
is  a  great  step  up.  Clothing  has  reverted  to  the  30's  look 
with  cuffsand  pleats,  platform  heels  and  high  waisted  pants. 

"Last  Picture  Show"  was  the  first  major  theatrical  film 
to  be  filmed  entirely  in  black  and  white  in  more  than  a 
decade.  Although  the  content  of  the  film  was  terrible,  the 
look  and  atmosphere  were  extremely  realistic. 

Soft  brown  tones  as  in  films  of  the  30's,  are  found  in 
"Sutch  Cassidy  and  the  Sundance  Kid". 
Film  revives  past 

"The  Godfather"  is  one  of  the  most  realistic  movies  based 
on  the  thirties.  The  atmosphere  showed  how  a  creative 
crew  can  bring  the  past,  "back  from  the  dead," 

Another  movie  built  with  a  flavor  of  old  time  gangsters 
is   'Bonnie  and  Clyde,"  with  authenticity  plus. 

Sounds  of  the  big  bands  have  been  revived  with  Jazz 
becoming  quite  popular,  especially  with  the  young.  Hun- 
dreds of  high  schools  have  recently  offered  Jazz  as  a  regular 
credited  course- 
Old  houses  from  the  period  are  another  rage  and  nostal- 
gic minded  people  are  buying  them  for  their  distinct  styles. 

American  society  seems  to  have  found  another  fad  to 
occupy  their  time.  Onfy  in  America  .  .  .

Indians  reject  society 


by  Sue  tUlale 

Protesting  a  "Trail  of  Broken 
Promises."  a  group  of 
Indians  took  over  and  ran- 
sacked the  Bureau  of  Indian 
Affairs  building  in  Washing- 
ton, D.C.  Litter  and  destruc- 
tion left  at  the  building 
totaled  close  to  a  half  million 
dollars.  Files  were  ran- 
sacked. Indian  artifacts  and 
documents  were  damaged 


or  removed  from  the  build- 
ing or  dumped  m  piles  of 
debris- 

Indian  demonstrations  hii  Nonhi 
Dakota  las!  week  and  extensive 
damage  was  reporled  done  lo  a 
courthouse  and  oilier  government 
buildings 

Alcalraz  Island  In  San  Francisco 
Bay  and  an  Army  post  in  ttie  state 
o(  Washington  were  also  invaded 
The  protesting  Indians  were  seek- 
ing meaningful  change  lor  the 
Indian  communilv  through  violence 


and  older  members  of  ine  tribes 
condemn  the  protesters  They  feel 
the  advances  made  in  recenf  years 
wilhoul  violence  have  been  more 
than  sufficient.  The  Indians  have 
progressed  very  well  and  protestors 
are  only  giving  the  maionty  of 
Indians  a  bad  reputation 
Indians  gain  rlgtits 

Until  recently  the  Bureau  of 
Indian  Affairs  governed  much  ol  the 
business  and  education  of  Indians. 
Prior  to  the  demonstrations,  many 
nghls  were  given  to  individual 
tribes  allowing  (hem  to  make  many 
ol  Iheir  own  decisions.  Indians  have 
been  granted  many  more  privileges 
recently  than  they  have  had  lor 
decades.  Not  satisfied  with  the  pace 
of  improvement,  some  Indians, 
especially  the  young,  have  begun 
a  radical  approach  to  the  problem. 

Jane  Fonda,  like  other  outsiders 
tries  campaigning  for  the.  Indians. 
Her  efforts  were  not  appreciated, 
however  MissKahnTinetaHorn.an 
Indian  leader,  said  of  her,  "Jane 
Fonda  is  a  leftist.  The  sooner  she 
never  mentions  Indians  again,  the 
better  Once  she  led  a  group  ot 
Indians  info  Fort  Lawton  and  when 
the  newspaper  people  came  and 
started  to  interview  her,  she  was 
protesting  Vietnam.  She  forgot 
which  crusade  she  was  on.  She 
makes  us  look  ridiculous." 

Leftists  hurt  cause 

Leftists  who  try  to  help  our  cause 
can  tell  the  difference  between  an 
idea  and  a  slogan  Liberals  are 
bleeding  hearts  and  do-gooders. 
We  certainly  don't  need  that  kind 
of  help."  she  went  on.  "No  good 
can  come  tor  Indians  in  association 
with  any  organization  or  person 
thai  IS  leftist  or  Socialist  or  Com- 
munist, '  Miss  Horn  stated.  "Our 
treaties  are  with  the  establishment 
and  whatever  we  can  get  that 
belongs  to  us  we  can  get  only  from 
the  establishment." 

IWiss  Horn  summarized  the  situa- 
tion of  violent  demonstration  and 
usi^tcss  destruction  saying,  "To 
advance  at  all,  we  have  lo  do  things 
that  will  gam  us  more  respect.  We 
will  not  accomplish  anything  by 
antagonizing  the  white  man.  ".

Focus  presents  a  well  blended 
sounded  that  shows  *alenl  between 
the  members  of  the  group  to  be  as 
one.  Americans  are  used  lo  loud, 
flashy  playing  from  individuals. 
Also.  Focus  has  a  sod  quality  that 
is  meant  strictly  for  listening  pur- 
poses. Unfortunately  (he  average 
American  album  buyer  wants  lo 
hear  a  driving  beat  he  can  stomp 
to. 

In  their  firsi  album.  Moving 
Waves,  Focus  draws  together  the 
advanced  electronical  sound  and 
the  usual  instruments  into  one  solid 
sound.  It  often  times  borders  on  a

Their  main  composer,  Thijs  van

he  depends  on  the  musical  content. 
They  don't  need  to  stress  some

make  it  sound  good. 

American  groups  have  always 
used  rock  music  to  stress  Iheir  own

Seniors    enter     finals 


bv  Karen  Yager 

The  team  of  Susan  Fritzsche 
and  Hans  Zorn  tiave  success- 
fully debated  their  way  to 
natronal  debate  competition, 
sponsored  by  the  National 
Forensic  League.  To  be  held  at 
the  University  of  Pittsburg,  the 
meet  will  consist  of  competition 
among  debate  teams  from  eacti 
state  or  district.  Sue  and  Hans 
became  eligible  by  defeating  21 
other  schools  competing  in  ttie 
district  meet. 


The  team  was  judged  on  their 
delivery,  evidence  and  analysis 
as  they  each  presented  an  8 
minute  speech  that  consisted  of 
plans  and  contentions  for  the 
debate  case,  a  3  minute  cross 
examination  and  a  4  minute 
rebuttal  They  debated  the  topic 
that  was  selected  at  the  beginn- 
ing of  the  year  which  was  about 
federal  finance  for  schools. 

Sue  and  Hans  were  both 
unsuccessful  in  iheir  attempts 
last  year  at  the  district  meet 


Handwriting     analysis 
reveals    personality 


Editors  note:  The  following  story 
contains  excerpts  from  the  article 
entitled  Confessions  of  a  handwrit- 
ing analyst  in  the  February  '73 
Issue  of  Seventeen  magazine. 

Revealing  personality  traits  and 
character  through  handwriting?  II 
sounds  unbelievable  but  19  year  old 
Larry  Harmon  has  made  quite  a 
name  tor  himself  analyzing  hand- 
writing. 

I  first  became  interested  in 
graphology  when  I  was  (ifteen  and 
was  thumbing  through  a  book  on 
the  subiect.  Handwriting  I  disco- 
vered, IS  something  you  cant  fake 
-  at  least  not  over  a  long  period  of 
time  -  unless  you  are  a  professional 
(orger. 

Symbolic  graphology  divides  the 
writing  into  areas,  with  leftward 
trends  standing  for  Mother,  Past. 
and  Origin  and  rightward  trends 
signifying  Father,  and  Completion. 
Another  system,  the  trail  method. 
Is  popular  and  speedy  because 
you  need  only  Identify  Individual 
letters  for  individual  characteris- 
tics. 

I've  put  a  lot  of  thought  into  the 
phrasing  of  my  interpretations 
because  a  graphologist  has  certain 
degree  of  power  over  people.  The 
title  "graphologist"  along  causes 
people  to  believe  what  I  say.

Graphology  Is  used  in  many 
ways  to*ay-  In  industrial 
phychology,  tor  example,  hand- 
writing analysis  can  be  used  by  a 
number  of  personnel  and  )ob 
placement  agencies,  as  well  as  by

psychologists-  But  the  most 
unusual  recent  achievement  by 
graphologists  Is  In  the  field  ol 
cancer  prediction.  Alfred  Kanfer  at 
the  Strang  Clinic  in  New  York  City, 
has  developed  a  system  to  predict 
cancer  from  handwriting  for  which 
he  claims  over  80  percent.

knowledge  by  takjng  speech 
and  forensic  courses  at 
Elmburst  She  has  no  plans  for 
debate  in  college  as  she 
believes  it  will  be  too  difficult. 
Hans  started  debating  as  a 
sophomore  but  took  no  courses 
to  aid  him  "I  like  to  argue  and 
I  wanted  to  see  what  a  formal 
debate  was  like,"  explained 
Hans.

Its  (usl  great  to  be  able  to

coming  from  all  over  the  coun-

Both  Sue  and  Hans  are  look-

Cadets  conquer  Trojans 


A  dry  spell  of  almost  four 
minutes  duration  at  the  start  of 
the  second  halt  put  Elmhurst  in 
a  hold  Friday  night  at  the  Con- 
cordia gym  and  the  Trojans 
never  did  di5  themselves  out. 

While  the  Trojans  were  firing 
blanks,  the  Cadets  ran  eff  eight 
straight  points  to  erase  a  37-34 
halftime  defecit  and  they  hung 
on  (or  a  75-68  win. 

Elmhurst  wound  up  its  pre- 
tournamenl  tour  with  a  spark- 

Tourney  role 
goes  back  in 
city  history 

Houno  one  ot  (he  annual  tour- 
week  grind  lo  name  Ihe  Indiana 
High  School  Athletic  Association's 
stale  champion  began  this  week. 

Fori  Wayne  has  two  such  tourna- 
ments, partically  because  o(  the 
size  ol  the  field  but  more  because 
of  Ihe  size  ol  Ihe  Memorial 
Coliseum  and  its  outstanding 
tacililies. 

Seclional  play  started  here  way 
back  In  1921,  and  the  first  tourney 
was  contested  at  Ihe  old  Concordia 
College  gym.  Two  schools  you  can 
no  longer  find  on  the  list  of  Sec- 
tional Tournament  entries,  Kenda!- 
Ivilleand  Wolf  Lake,  made  Ihe  (inals 
thai  year  with  the  former  winning, 
18-9.  If  that  was  a  first  period  score 
today  you  would  think  both  teams 
had  trouble  shooting. 
City  tiosts  contest 

Thus,  tor  the  53rd  time  Fort 
Wayne  is  the  site  of  Sectional  com- 
petilion.  Few  parents  6\  players  in 
this  week's  tourneys  were  born 
when  the  first  Seclional  was  played 
at  Concordia, 

South  Side's  gym,  considered 
one  of  the  finest  in  the  entire  stale, 
was  opened  in  1923  and  the  tourney 
moved  to  South  Calhoun  Street. 
Then  in  1928,  North  Side  moved 
into  the  picture  and  hosted  its  first 
tournamenl.  From  then  until  1946 
every  lourney  was  at  either  South 
or  North. 

When  the  capacity  of  the  North 
gym  was  taxed,  officials  split  the 
action  beginning  in  1948  between 
the  South  and  North  gyms  and  Ihis 
setup  was  used  until  the  huge 
Memorial  Coliseum  opened  its 
doors  in  1952, 
Central  wins  twenty 

Central  High,  which  closed  its 
doors  following  the  1971  tourney, 
owns  Ihe  most  Seclional  titles  here 
as  the  Tigers  won  it  no  less  than 
20  times.  South  Side  has  16  titles 
and  North  Side  13. 

Then  it's  Central  Catholic  and 
Smder  with  two  each.  Decalur, 
Monroeville,  South  Whitley.  Ken- 
dallville.  Concordia  and  Elmhurst 
all  with  one.  Thus  there  have  been 
11  different  schools  to  carry  home 
the  championship  trophy  (rom  Fori

ling  14-6  record.  The  Concordia 
performance  was  particularly 
meaningful  in  that  it  assured 
Glen  Parrish  and  his  crew  a 
winning  season,  11-9:  and  it 
gave  Concordia  a  share  of  third 
place  in  the  City  Series  with  the 
Trojans.  Each  finished  5-3. 

Each  club  played  in  spurts. 
Elmhurst  looked  awesome  at 
times  as  the  Trojans  left  the 
Cadets  literally  in  their  tracks  to 
score  on  quick  breaks.  But 
when  Concordia's  defense  was 
set.  Elmhurst  lacked  the  pati- 
ence to  attack  and  often  took 
low-average  shots. 

In  addition  to  defensive 
lapses,  Concordia  turned  the 
ball  over  a  number  of  times  - 
more  than  a  few  resulting  in 
easy  baskets  for  Elmhurst, 
Lead  changes  hands 

There  was  a  lot  ot  excitement 
tor  the  fans,  however,  as  the  vic- 


tory pendulum  swung  back  and 
forth  until  the  final  two  minutes 
when  Concordia  sank  four 
straight  free  throws  for  a  69-61 
lead. 

Hustling  John  Koeneman 
turned  in  an  all-around  perfor- 
mance to  lead  the  cadets  and 
all  scorers  with  24  points.  It  was 
a  career  high  for  the  6-1  senior. 
Eugene  Parker,  the  Cadet's  top 
gunner,  was  off  target  but  he 
still  finished  with  19  and  Ron 
Knox  with  16. 

Junior  Kevin  Howell  led  the 
Trojans  with  18  points,  followed 
by  junior  Don  Taylor  with  16 
Junior  Steve  Ransom  and 
senior  John  Adams  chipped  in 
ten  points  each  and  senior  Bob 
Paschall  and  junior  Romey  Ste- 
vens finished  the  scoring  for 
Elmhurst  with  eight  and  six 
points  respectfully. 


Off  my  back!

Elmhurst  ended  their  season  with  a  14-6  record  and  finished  in  a  tie 
for  third  place  with  Concordia  in  city  series  competition.  Photo/Neil

Wrestlers  attend  feast 


by  Male  Finlayson 

Thirteen  varsity  wrestlers 
received  post-season  recogni- 
tion during  the  annual  wrestling 
banquet  which  was  held  on  the 
13th  of  February  in  the 
cafeteria,  Approximately  130 
people  attended  the  banquet 
featuring  assistant  principal  Mr, 
Miller  giving  a  speech  comple- 
menting the  sportsmanship  and 
spirit  of  the  team. 

Junior  Jim  Welhelm  received 
the  best  attitude  award,  "Jim 
was  one  of  the  team  leaders  and 
hustled  at  all  times  in  practice 
and  on  the  mat.  He  thought 
positively  in  all  situations 
through  the  season  and  helped 
to  tire  up  the  other  wrestlers  a 
great  deal."  commented  head 
wrestling  coach  James  Wel- 
lborn. 

Senior  John  Hoard  was  given 
the  quick  pin  award  for  his 
efforts  in  the  Columbia  City 
match  when  he  pinned  his 
heavyweight  opponent  in  just 
24  seconds.  In  this  particular 
match  Hoard  used  the  double 
leg  take  down  and  quickly 
turned  it  into  a  pin. 

benior  (ireg  Bussaro  was 
named  the  most  improved 
wrestler  on  the  team  this  year. 


"Greg  has  as  much  natural  abil- 
ity as  anyone  who  came  out  for 
the  team,  it  just  took  time  for 
it  to  show.  At  the  end  of  the  sea- 
son he  was  one  of  the  best  in 
the  area,  and  in  the  sectional 
he  held  Geesaman  from  South 
Side  scoreless  for  two  minutes. 
Gessaman  went  on  to  win  the 
Fort  Wayne  regional,"  said  Mr. 
Wellborn. 

Two  wrestlers  were  recog- 
nized as  being  the  most  valu- 
able players.  They  are  junior 
Harold  Essex  and  senior  Pat 
McDonald,  Essex  had  a  19-5 
record  and  had  the  most  vic- 
tories, pins  and  take  dowris  on 
the  team,  fvlcDonald  had  a  18- 
3-1  record  and  the  fewest 
number  of  team  points  scored 


against  him  this  year. 
McDonald  was  also  voted  by  (he 
members  of  the  team  as  the 
captain.  McDonald  was  noted 
for  his  good  spirit  and 
technique  and  the  many  sac- 
rifices he  made  for  the  team. 

Referring  to  next  year  Mr. 
Wellborn  commented.  "We 
already  have  28  wrestlers  work- 
ing hard  on  weights  or  in  track 
or  baseball.  Our  goal  is  the  state 
championship  and  if  the  people 
continue  to  work  hard  we  will 
reach  that  goal."

Dan  Forlriede,  cellist  in  the  orchesira

Chief  Justice  Warren  Burger  described  the  role  of  the 
Supreme  Court  in  our  Constitutional  system.  "Our  role  is 
to  try  to  provide  a  road  map  of  the  main  highways  of  the 
law  under  tne  Constitution  and  Acts  of  Congress  on  the 
broad  issues  that  affect  many  people." 

"Throughout  the  184  years  of  the  Court's  history,  you 
see  the  Justices  struggling  to  define  phrases  such  as  "due 
process  of  law,  "  "establishment  of  religion,"  "freedom  of 
speech,"  "'equal  protection,"  or  "probable  cause"  for 
arrest,  search  or  seizure.  By  their  very  nature,  these  con- 
cepts are  general  words  that  must  be  applied  to  real-life 
situations.  We  must  consider  all  the  circumstances,  includ- 
ing setting,  time  and  place.  ' 

Because  these  men  must  interpret  the  Constitution  in 
a  way  that  will  coincide  with  the  majority  of  the  population, 
they  are  carrying  a  large  responsibility.  Perhaps  these 
men  have  too  large  of  a  burden. 

Their  recent  decision  concerning  the  abortion  case  might 
exemplify  the  situation.  How  many  Americans  would  agree 
with  the  court  that  aborting  a  fetus  should  be  between 
the  mother  and  her  doctor,  and  does  not  concern  the  child? 

Also,  the  court  recently  refused  to  review  two  cases. 
One  dealing  with  a  lower  court  decision  that  a  community 
must  bus  students  to  eliminate  segregation  and  another 
on  a  lower  court  decision  that  a  community  cannot  bus 
students  for  reasons  of  integration.  Contradictory,  no? 

If  the  Supreme  Court  is  not  making  decisions  as  the 
American  people  would  interpret  the  Constitution,  what 
purpose  is  it  serving?

tain  man. 

Jeremiah  Johnson  is  por- 
trayed as  a  flatlander  look- 
ing to  escape  the  drudgery 
of  civilization  by  living  in  the 
Rocky  fylountains.  This  is  a 
kind  of  familiar  theme  of 
escapism. 

Robert  Redlord  portrays  Johnson 
in  this  realislic  movie.  Johnson 
begins  his  trek  as  an  inexperienced 
mountaineer.  His  lirsl  conlaci  with 
Ihe  real  West  is  with  an  old  moun- 
tain man  who  educates  Johnson  on 
the  art  ol  survival. 

Johnson  discovers  lamily 

Johnson  then  moves  further  on 
and  discovers  a  family  that  was 
wiped  out  by  Indians  The  only  sur- 
vivors are  a  boy  and  his  mother. 
Johnson  is  given  the  responsibility 
ol  caring  lor  the  boy  who  is  mule 
throughout  the  movie. 

Jeremiah  later  marries  a  young 
Indian  girl  who  cares  lor  the  boy 
and  his  temporary  father  This  fam- 
ily settles  in  the  wilderness  in  a 
seemingly  happy  ending 

Johnson,  however,  is  again  bur- 
dened with  Ihe  problems  of  civiliza- 
tion when  he  is  forced  lo  lead  army 
troops  through  lorbidden  Indian 
territory  in  order  lo  save  stranded 
settlers  in  the  mountains. 

Johnson  loses  respect 

Johnson  returns  to  find  his  wife 
and  son  murdered  by  Indians  as 
revenge,  abolishing  his  under- 
standing for  Indians. 

Me  tracks  down  the  murderers 
and  kills  them  with  almost  insane 

pleasure.  Soon  he  becomes  a 
legendary  figure  hated  but 
respected  by  the  Indians.  They 


■'After  three  months  . . .  that's 
too  long  to  wait  and  have  an 
abortion  because  the  baby  is 
already  formmg.  I  used  to  be 
strictly  against  abortion  but  I've 
talked  lo  a  lot  of  people  about 
it  and  now  I'm  for  it  because 
I  think  every  woman  should 
have  the  right  to  decide  if  she 
wants  an  abortion  or  not.  Soci- 
ety is  making  such  a  big  Ihing 
about  over  population  and  yet 
they  bring  up  such  big  hassles 
against  abortion.  Anybody  can 
make  mistakes  ' 


"In  my  opinion  an  abortion  is 
the  same  as  taking  the  lite  of 
another  human  being.  It  always 
seems  to  come  down  to  the 
innocent  child  who  will  pay  for 
our  own  mistakes  while  we  con- 
tinue to  live  our  lives.  I  don!  feel 
It  should  be  the  child  who 
should  be  the  one  to  suffer  the 
consequences  of  our  mis- 
takes '  senior  Peggy  Hull. 


"One  of  the  arguments  about 
legalizing  abortion  is  that 
people  think  everyone  will  go 
out  and  get  an  abortion  just 
because  it's  legal.  This  idea  is 
wrong.  I  don't  think  that  I'd  get 
an  abortion  unless  it  was  for 
some  reason  like  being  raped. 
A  lot  ol  It  depends  on  religious 
convictions  too  ..many  people 
think  it's  murder  and  that  is  why 
they're  against  it.  ' 

"It  s  a  sad  place  though  that 
doesn't  let  the  woman  have  the 
right  to  decide  tor  herself 
whether  she  wants  an  abortion 
or  not  V'ith  legalized  abortion 
women  v  ill  love  their  children 
more  be'  ause  they  won't  be 
torced  lo  keep  kids  they  don't 
want  "  seiior  Kathy  Free. 


Community  applies 
double  dope  standard 


t 


by  Bill  Watson 

With  the  national  campaign 
against  drug  abuse  there  is  con- 
stant news  of  an  important  drug 
bust  almost  every  day  Ironically 
though,  you  can  buy  all  the 
paraphenalia  for  smoking 
dope,  legally. 

In  nearly  every  pharmacy  or 
grocery  store  you  can  still  buy 
rolling  papers  for  your  "Bull 
Durham  "  Recently,  hundreds 
of  independent  "head  shops" 
have  opened  across  the  country 
catering  exclusively  to  dope 
smokers. 

Paraphenalia  ranges  from  simple  19-cent  rolling 
papers  to  complex  $30  electric  water  pipes  Papers 
are  also  now  flavored  m  strawberry,  cherry,  cinam- 
mon,  licorice  and  even  chocolate  to  give  it  all  a 
little  flavor 
Paraphenalia  sells  legally 

Strangely  though,  selling  paraphenalia  is  strictly 
legal.  Anyone  can  buy  these  necessities  with  ease, 
it's  just  the  "stuff"  that  causes  problems  Since  all 
items  that  are  made  and  sold  specifically  for  dope 
can  be  sold  to  smoke  tobacco,  laws  cannot  prevent 
their  distribution.  Often  times  shops  will  post  signs 
stating  that  the  items  are  not  meant  for  illegal  pur- 
poses. What  else  do  you  use  a  roach  clip  or  hash 
pipe  for? 

This  double-standard  our  society  has  about  dope 
is  completely  irrational  Mari|uana  remains  illegal 
but  yet  the  obvious  sale  of  paraphenalia  is  legal 
It  doesn't  indicate  our  permissiveness  or  hanging 
values  nearly  as  much  as  it  does  our  twisted  stan- 
dards.

it  doesn't  make  any  difference

abortion  is  legal  and  I  can  get 
one  "  junior  Sandy  Slater. 

"I  think  abortion  depends  on 
the  person.  It's  alright  in  certain 
cases  like  if  it  could  endanger 
the  mother's  life  or  the  baby's 
life.  I  wouldn't  have  an  abortion 
though  because  that  would  be 
destroying  a  life  that's  inside 
me.  I  think  though,  that  the  Sup-

Birth   order  explains 
difference    in    lives 


by  Janet  Bell 

Great  differences  occur  between 
members  of  families  that  are  oflen 
times  unexplained.  Some 
psychologists  now  believe  that  the 
reason  why  brothers  and  sisters  can 
be  so  different  from  one  another 
lies  in  the  sequence  in  which  you 
are  born 

Whether  you  are  the  oldest,  youn- 
gest or  middle  child  m  your  family 
maybeabletoexplain  why  kids  with 
the  same  parents,  home  and  upbr- 
inging have  different  approaches  to 
lite. 

These  experts  have  found  that 
"birth  order"  might  have  an  Impor- 
tant Influence  on  shaping  person- 
ality. It  can  also  have  an  affect  on 
the  way  you  respond  to  people  and 
experiences. 

An  oldest  child  is  more  likely  to 
be  self-disciplined  and  hardwork- 
ing, say  experts.  They  seek  to  be 
the  center  of  attention  yet  tend  to 
be  more  anxious  than  other  people 
under  stress 

The  youngest  in  the  family, 
researchers  say,  is  more  likely  to 
feel  dominated  by  people  around, 
but  also  have  a  belter  chance  of 
being  a  creative  person.  The  middle 
child  shows  a  greater-than-average 
need  lor  attention 

The  main  reason  that  "birth 
order"  makes  a  difference  In  how 
one  thinks  and  acts  about  himself 
Is  that  parents  usually  have  a  cer- 
tain "emotional  set"  toward  each 
child.  It  Is  a  pattern  of  feelings  and 
attitudes,  depending  on  the  child's 
places  tn  the  family  succession. 

What  does  birth  order  mean  in 
relation  to  the  effects  of  your  birth 
order  on  your  personality"?  If  you 
are  the  oldest  child,  you  think  of 
yourseit  as  someone  special  Dr 
Lucille  Forer,  a  clinical  psycholog- 
ist who  has  specialized  in  birth 
order,  points  out  that  since  an  old- 
est child  has  his  parents  to  himself 


tor  a  year  or  more  ana  the  parents 
make  a  fuss  over  everything  he 
does,  an  oldest  child  developsa  fee- 
ling of  being  a  rather  important  per- 
son. 

Oldest  children  also  lend  to  get 
better  grades  and  score  higher  on 
exams  They  are  more  likely  to 
choose  professional  careers 

A  middle  child,  by  tradition.  Is 
supposed  to  be  overshadowed  by 
both  older  and  younger  siblings. 
They  have  an  advantage  for  awhile 
being  the  youngest  In  the  family. 
When  another  child  Is  born,  they 
don't  suffer  as  much  Jealousy  as 
an  older  one. 

If  you  are  the  youngest  child  less 
has  been  expected  of  you  than  of 
your  brothers  and  sisters  One 
result,  say  experts,  is  that  having 
been  left  more  lo  your  own,  you  will 
probably  be  more  original  and  crea- 
tive in  your  approach  lo  life.  Since 
you  were  the  last  born  no  one  bur- 
dened you  withexpectalions  Being 
the  youngest  you  may  still  tend  to 
cling  to  immaturity  and  depen- 
dency. 

The  most  importani  for  a  youn- 
gest child  is  that  he  or  she  may 
develop  their  own  individual  skills 
and  qualities  Parents  can  often 
help  their  youngest  child  by 
encouraging  them  to  follow  their 
own  goals

Yvonne  watches  discusalons 

After  the  distrlbufon  of  Ihe  bills, 
Yvonne  and  her  friend  were  allowed 
to  spend  Ihe  rest  of  Ihe  afternoon 
on  the  Floor  of  the  Senate  watching 
and  listening  to  the  discussions  of 
the  bills.  Yvonne  c^  mented,  "I 
was  surnrised  how  c  eren t  the  sys- 
tem ot  Jiscussing  a  bill  was.  There 
are  people  constantly  moving 
around  and  talking.  Usually  when 
a  bill  was  announced  by  the  Lt 
Governor,  only  one  or  two  of  the 
Senators  would  make  any  com- 
ments on  it  or  ask  gueslions," 

Toward  the  end  of  her  story, 
Yvonne  was  asked  what  she 
enjoyed  most  lo  which  her  reply 
was,  "I  really  liked  meeting  the 
people,  especially  the  Senators  and 
the  college  kids  that  were  working 
in  the  offices  for  the  Senators.  I 
really  enjoyed  the  day  and  would

Trojans  fall  short  in 
run  at  tourney  champs 

The  Elmhurst  basketball  team  went  into  the  Sectional 
tourney  with  high  hopes  of  attaining  their  second  Sectional 
crown.  However,  their  dreams  were  shattered  as  the  Snider 
Panthers  put  it  all  together  and  defeated  the  Trojans  1 00-82 

in  the  fvlemorial  Coliseum.

Editor's  note:  Parts  of  this  story

appeared  In  the  Purdue  Exponent 

The  eoiior  was  yelling  at  me,  "1 
don't  care  how  you  do  il.  just  !ind 
out  what  happened  to  them." 

The  dude  gels  all  upset  when  he 
doesn  t  know  what's  going  on.  Like 
last  week  he  misplaced  the  basket- 
ball team,  says  he  knew  they  had 
a  game  at  the  Coliseum  but  that's 
the  last  he's  heard  about  them. 

Sure  he  had  a  reporter  on  the  job, 
but  when  he  went  to  this  guy's 
house  he  said  there  were  beer  cans 
all  over  the  apartment  but  no  repor- 
ter. He  said  there  was  a  wine  bottle 
through  the  picture  tube  ot  the  T.V 
and  stuff  like  that.  So  I  told  him  Id

and  went  inside.  It  was  all  dark 
insideexcept  for  a  light  on  the  stage 
was  illuminating  a  huge  black  blan- 
keted thing  with  a  big   "S"  on  it 

I  went  on  down  lo  tne  stage  and 
saw  some  people  dressed  in  red 
standing  around,  heads  lowered 
and  sniffling  and  crying.  Then  a 
short  fat  kid  about  a  junior  1  guess 
came  over  to  me 

"Excuse  me  are  you  allowed  in 
here,  this  is  a  private  mourning." 

"You're  excused,  1  was  sent  over 
to  see  what  happened  to  your 
learn." 

'Oh  well  it  isnl  pretty  to  see 
There's  not  much  left."  and  he 
stared  out  at  the  red  mass  on  the 
stage.  I  could  see  something  stick- 
ing out  o1  the  mass  thai  looked  like

"You  haven't  seen  it  yef^ ' 
'No.  ■  said  I.

No  21.  No.  52,  all  of  'em.

'They  uh,  well  they  got  killed  out 
at  the  Coliseum  last  Thursday  I 
thought  that  everybody  had  heard 
by  now.  Most  of  the  slaughter  was 
on  the  radio. ' 

"Man,  they  let  people  listen  to 
that  violence?" 

"Well,  they  took  out  the  worst 
part,  just  put  on  five  minutes  of 
news  and  five  minutes  of  music." 


"Where  s  the  coach"? 

He  pointed  to  a  short  man,  head 
down  and  a  hankie  out 
"Coach''  ' 

"Don't  bother  me  son,  can  I  you  see 
I'm  mourning?" 

■'Well,  I've  got  lo  get  the  facts  sir. 
Did  you  have  any  idea  this  would 
happen'' " 

'I  told  em  we  had  to  avoid  getting 
killed  by  the  refs  and  get  some  fair 
calls.  I'm  alraid  our  team  was  too 
clumsy  and  they  murdered  us  on 
their  calls." 

"What  about  your  lack  of  muscle

"Well  I  am  in  the  process  of  talk- 
ing to  By  Hey  about  that  right  now   " 


So  what  now''" 

We  ve  (ust  got  to  wait  until  next 
year,  I  guess  " 

"Well,  good  luck  " 

I  left  him  there  staring  al  his  stric- 
ken team,  and  wiping  the  tears 
away. 

As  I  was  walking  back  to  the 
editors  office  I  saw  some  men  in 
while  ambulances  pull  up,  to  get 
their  stretchers  out  and  go  into  the

half  attempting  to  make  a  game  out 
ot  it,  but  had  just  dug  themselves 
too  deep  a  hole  to  crawl  out  of.  For- 
ward junior  Don  Taylor  finally 
began  to  find  the  range  for  the 
Trojans.  The  6-3  junior  pumped  in 
14  points  during  the  quarter  as 
Elmhurst  oulscored  Snider,  26-16, 
to  go  into  the  linal  period  on  the 
short  end  of  a  69-55  count. 

Snider  still  held  a  20  point  lead 
late  in  the  third  quarter  but  a  lay 
up  by  senior  John  Adams  and  a  tip 
in  and  lay  up  b_y  Taylor  brought  the 
Trojans  within  striking  distance. 

Midway  through  the  final  stanza 
Elmhurst  had  only  narrowed  the 
gap  to  12,80-68  Snider  then  tallied 
six  straight  points,  four  by  Craig 
and  two  by  Davis,  to  take  a  com- 
manding lead  and  a  victory. 
Panthers  reach  100 

Snider's  Mark  Rowan  dropped  in 
two  free  throws  with  28  seconds  on 
the  clock  making  the  score  100-78 
before  the  Trojans  picked  up  the 
last  four  points  of  the  ball  game 

Taylor  led  the  Trojans  with  25 
points,  22  in  the  second  half.  Junior 
center  Kevm  Howell  helped  out  with 
23  for  Elmhurst 

Snider  didn't  cool  off  in  the  sec- 
ond half,  finishing  the  game  with 
a  58.4  percentage.

Baseball  gets  late  start 


It  appears  that  Ihe  Major 
League  Baseball  season  may  be 
delayed  again  this  year.  The 
Major  League  Baseball  Players 
Association  and  the  owners 
have  not  signed  a  new  contract. 

The  issue  that  stands  between  the 
two  groups  is  the  reserve  clause. 
The  reserve  clause  bends  a  player 
to  his  team  until  he  is  traded, 
released  or  retired 
Players  negotiate  terms 

The  players  association  want  the 
individual  players  to  have  the  right 
to  negotiate  with  any  club  after  he 
has  been  a  player  for  seven  years. 

The  owners  want  Ihe  reserve 
clause  to  slay  and  will  compromise 
on  a  player's  right  to  be  traded 
They  proposed  that  a  player  should 
have  ten  years  in  the  league  before 
he  can  reject  a  trade. 

Both  sides  agree  there  should  be 


a  three-year  contract.  Commis- 
sioner Bowie  Kuhn  said,  "The  own- 
ers do  not  want  it  to  come  up  again 
in  one  year  They  need  three  years 
of  peace,  the  players  need  three 
years  of  peace,  and  I  need  three 
years  of  peace  " 
Strike  costs  money 

A  strike  would  be  costly  for  both 
sides  Last  years  13-day  strike 
wiped  out  86  ball  games  The 
players  all  lost  pay  for  those  games 
and  the  owners  lost  money  Pete 
Rose  of  the  Cincinnati  Reds  lost 
S7000  dollars  in  pay  during  last 
year  s  strike. 


The  delay  in  signing  the  contract 
has  already  delayed  the  start  of  spr- 
ing training  Several  teams  have 
already  canceled  exhibition  games 
The  Pittsburg  Pirates  canceled  their 
three-game  exhibition  trip  to  Ivlex- 
ico  City.  The  New  York  Mets,  Bos- 
ton Red  Sox,  Minnesota  Twins  and 
Detroit  Tigers  have  canceled  some 
exhibition  games. 

There  are  few  minor  details  that 
also  have  to  be  agreed  upon.  One 
IS  a  raise  m  minimum  salary  which 
IS  presently  SI  3,750.  Another  is  that 
the  players  want  an  increase  in 
Wnrld  Series  shares.

of  retailing,  wholesaling,  advertising, 
financing  and  transportation,"  Mr.

Working  seniors  are  required  to 
take  a  special  class.  "The  class  gives 
related  training  through  projects  and 
book  learning  that  ties  indirectly  with 
the  job."  Mr  Morman  said.  The  three 
maior  projects  include  window 
display,  newspaper  ad  layout  and  sales 
demonstration. 

Students  are  able  to  specify  a  job 
preference  and  Mr.  Norman  tries  to 
locate  one  as  cfose  to  their  choice  as 
possible  It  the  student  does  not  have  a 
preference,  he  is  given  one  which  Mr, 
Norman  believes  fits  that  student's 
individual  needs 

Juniors  wishing  to  take  the  program 
in  iheir  senior  year  are  urged  to  take 
the  distributive  marketing  class.  It 
gives  them  a  broad  idea  of  the 
distributive  jobs.  In  general,  it  is  an 
introduction  to  the  five  distributive 
occupations. 

"Once   they've  been  introduced  to 


these  areas,  you  decide  on  the  type  of 
job  you  want  when  you're  a  senior," 
Mr.  Norman  explained.  "The  end  of 
the  year  offers  information  on  job 
interviews  and  more." 

Sophomores  sign  up 

Sophomores  who  wish  to  sign  up 
for  the  junior  Distributive  Marketing 
class  should  sign  up  for  it  on  next 
year's  schedule  sheets.  Juniors  who 
wish  to  work  half  days  m  the  senior 
program  should  fill  out  applications 
available  from  Mr,  Norman, 

Mr,  Norman  also  sponsors  the  Dis- 
tributive Education  Club  ot  America, 
"The  club  has  two  mam  purposes. 
They  are  to  give  students  a  chance  to 
compete  in  contests  such  as  the  recent 
regional  competition  and  to  give  us  a 
chance  to  get  together  to  socialize," 
This  year  the  club  has  gone  roller 
skating  and  bbwiing  and  plans  in  the 
future  a  kite  fly.  At  the  end  of  May 
they  will  honor  employers  who  have 
given  jobs  at  ar\  employee-employer

College  bound  students 
illprepared  for  school 

The  majority  of  college  students  transfer,  drop  out  or 
fail  before  graduation  day.  Most  people  select  a  school 
with  very  little  information,  Reader's  Digest  refers  to  this 
technique  as  the  '  pig-m-a-poke  plan.' 

Several  myths  have  been  exposed  lor  the  benefit  ol 
high  school  students  preparing  lor  a  college  education. 
First,  the  college  catalogue  will  inlorm  you  whether  or 
not  this  school  is  for  you. 

According  to  Loren  Pope,  approximately  1600 
accredited  four-year  institutions  and  900  two-year  col- 
leges have  similar  catalogues.  Some  are  designed  as  an 
ultimate  sales  pitch  to  choose  this  particular  school. 

Another  myth  is  a  large  university  offers  a  richer  experi- 
ence Usually,  bigger  universities  are  primarily  interested 
in  research,  publishing  and  graduate  teaching  with  underg- 
raduate education  given  (ess  emphasis 

More  important  than  the  number  of  people  attending  a 
particular  school  is  the  type  of  students.  Diversity  might 
be  important  to  some  while  selecting  a  college. 

Some  believe  Eastern  schools  are  the  "best"  while  the 
South  offers  little  What  is  true,  however,  is  the  Midwest 
offers  an  extremely  good  education. 

According  to  Reader's  Digest,  a  college  should  not  be 
chosen  because  of  its  reputation  for  a  certain  field  of 
study.  This  should  be  considered  in  the  junior  year  when 
a  student  has  experienced  diflerent  ideas  and  cultivation. 
Also,  a  student  will  probably  be  sure  of  his  or  her  major 
by  then  and  more  familiar  with  schools  offering  their  selec- 
tion. 

Many  students  have  probably  heard  many  scholarships 
go  unused.  This  is  untrue  according  to  Loren  Pope  Only 
a  fraction  of  the  scholarship  money  applied  for  is  actually 
available 

Although  some  colleges  require  students  to  apply  by  late 
December,  most  schools  do  not  require  applications  until 
February,  March  and  April.  Some  even  have  openings  when 
fall  classes  begin 

SAT  tests  are  not  always  the  Admission's  Director's  only 
basis  for  selecting  students.  Usually  grades  and  class  rank 
are  considered  first. 

Research  and  investigation  are  imporlant  in  choosing 
a  college  and  many  questions  must  be  considered

Black  English  study 
dispels  myths,  untruths 


by  Janet  Bell 

The  Black  culture  in  the  United 
States  has  many  unique  and  dis- 
tinctive traits  One  ot  those  readily 
noticeable  is  Iheir  language 

It  has  been  discovered  recently 
that  black  children  anxiously  cover 
up  their  own  llair  for  language  to 
please  teachers,  and  thai  Black 
English  is  not  interior  only  ditferenl 

While  school  teachers  in  a  rural 
area  of  northern  Florida  said  they 
could  not  understand  their  black 
students,  who  seemed  lo  speak  a 
ditferenl  language  from  the  Eng- 
lish spoken  by  white  children. 

Teachers  and  adult  strangers, 
including  psychologists  usually 
hear  just  one  style  -  Ihe  school 
register,  which  gives  an  impression 
of  limited  language  quality.  On  Ihe 
bases  of  this  evidence,  many  myths

Black  English  is  completely  differ-

in  Black  English  Its  History  and 
Usage  in  the  United  States,  sug- 
gested that  the  (irst  slaves  who 
came  to  America  mvented  Black 
English  according  to  the  basic  prin- 
ciples of  their  West  African  L,an- 
guages  Slave  traders  separated 
blacks  who  spoke  the  same  tribal 
tongue  to  prevent  ptotting  and 
rebellion.  To  communicate  Ihe 
slaves  borrowed  the  vocabularies 
of  their  masters  and  incorporated 
them  into  their  own  tongues,  estab-

is  not  deficient  but  totallv  different

lo  cover  up  the  significant  cultural 
dlfterences,  some  of  which  appear 
In  young  children  and  produce  var-

defined  situations. 

There  IS  no  reason  lo  believe  (hal 
the  altitudes  and  of  either  the  black

Juniors  Kevin  Howell  and  Don  Taylor  received  higti 
honors  as  they  were  recenlly  selected  lo  be  on  the 
Fort  Wavne  all-ciiy  basketball  team 

Reflecling  the  tough  competition  tor  ttiis  year's  spots 
on  the  all-city  team  was  Ihe  'act  ihat  there  wasn't  a 
single  unanimous  choice  on  the  squad 

When  ashed  how  they  fell  about  being  chosen,  both 
Howell  and  Taylor  said  (hey  were  honored.  Don,  how- 
ever, (houghl  maybe  a  senior  would  have  been  cho- 
sen before  him. 

Elmriursl's  Iwo  all-city  players  thought  maybe  some 
people  were  left  off  Ihe  list  who  might  have  deserved 
recognilion  Kevin  Howell  though!  Kurt  Cammack  ol 
Wayne  should  have  made  the  team  whtle  Taylor  sighted 
the  case  of  teammate  Sieve  Ransom,  They  also  put 
in  a  word  for  our  starling  guards  Julius  Stevens  and 
Bob  Paschall.  They  were  worthy  ol  the  honorable  men- 


list. 


by  deteating  Sectional  champions 
on  Friday  night.  The  Bruins  beat, 
lo  say  the  least.  DeKalb  Sectional 
surprise  Ffemont,  101-43,  in  Friday 
night's  tifst-round  action  before  a 
crowd  ol  8,376.  Westview,  a  school 
with  an  enrollment  ot  291 ,  knocked 
oH  North  Side,  82-71  in  the  first 
game 
Yoder  leads  victory 

Senior  center  Gary  Yoder  scored 
35  points  to  lead  Westview  to  their 
victory  over  North.  Northrop  put 
together  a  balanced  attack  with  six 
players  in  double  figures  to  out- 
point Fremont, 

Northrop,  with  a  22-2  record, 
faced  a  team  from  a  school  barely 
15percent  its  size  in  the  champion- 
ship game.  The  result  was  an  excit- 
ing game  in  which  Northrop 
squeezed  a  victory  out  of  the  War- 
riors in  the  final  seconds  of  over- 
time- 

Northrop  scored  three  points  m 
the  first  33  seconds  of  the  overtime 
period  and  then  held  on  to  shade 
Westview  64-63,  in  an  overtime 
thrilled  before  5,889  excited  fans  in 
the  Regional  championship  game 
at  the  Memorial  Coliseum  Ttie  vic- 
tory was  the  ninth  in  a  row  tor  the 
Brums  and  moved  their  season 
mark  to  23-2,  Westview  closed  out 
a  21-3  season 
Overtime  adds  excitement 

There  was  no  scoring  for  more 
than  two  minutes  in  the  overtime 
period,  but  il  still  didn't  lack  for 
excitement.  Mike  Whitt  put 
Northrop  ahead,  63-61,  with  a 
corner  shot  15  seconds  into  the 
extra  period  Then  Mike  Muff  added 
the  clinching  point,  hitting  the  first 
ot  two  three  throws  with  2  27  lo 
play. 

Ken  Weirich  closed  out  the  scor- 
ing with  a  pivot-shot  for  the  Wv- 
riors  with  2  1 1  remaining.  Then  fol- 
lowed a  senes  of  missed  shots 

The  adrenalin  conimueo  lo  ilow, 
however.  Mutt  missed  the  first  of 
a  one-and-one  tree  throw  situation 
with  a  nine  seconds  to  go  and  Wes- 
tview rebounded  The  Warriors 
never  got  a  shol  off,  however,  as 
a    bad    pass    underneath    Ihe 


Norlhrop  basket  was  intercepled. 

Westview  super-star  Gary  Yoder 
led  all  teams  in  scoring  and  set  a 
Regional  point  mark  in  the  process. 
He  tallied  28  points  Saturday  night 
tor  a  two  game  total  ol  63. 

The  Bruins  had  more  balanced 
scoring.  Whitt  led  the  sconng  for 
Northrop  with  25  points  and  Muff 
had  15  points.  Greg  Beer  added 
nine  for  the  winning  cause 


When  confronted  with  the  question  of  who  is  the 
best  player  m  the  city,  there  was  mixed  emotions. 
Eugene  Porker,  who  was  selected  as  the  News-Sentinel 
player  of  the  year,  was  Ihe  choice  ol  Don  Taylor.  Coach 
Ken  Eylchesons  choice  was  Alonzo  Craig.  With  due 
respecl  to  Parker  s  scoring  ability,  he  was  impressed 
by  Craig  s  rebounding  and  defensive  ability.  Howell 
had  no  opinion  on  the  matter 

Eytcheson.  who  helped  chose  the  team  along  with 
all  Ihe  other  city  coaches  and  representatives  from 
the  two  newspapers  fell  the  choices  were  good.  The 
selections  were  made  the  Monday  before  sectionals 
and  therefore  were  not  affected  by  tournament  perfor- 
mances. 

When  asked  who  was  the  toughest  learn  we  played 
Ihis  year,  Howell  and  Taylor  both  agreed  on  Norwell 
Coach  Eytcheson  added  to  the  list  the  teams  from  War- 
saw, Huntington,  Northrop  and  North  Side  He  tell  our 
winning  efforts  Over  Warsaw  and  Huntington  were 


commendable  ones 

Taylor  and  Howell  sighted  some  of  our  losing  causes 
as  our  best  of  the  year  The  Snider  game,  which  left 
many  Elmhurst  fans  depressed,  was  in  the  opinion  of 
these  two  players,  our  best  performance  of  the  year. 
It  must  be  pointed  out,  however,  that  the  team  was 
way  down  at  halltime  and  they  rebounded  for  a  devas- 
tating lotal  ot  55  points  in  Ihe  second  half. 

According  lo  Coach  Eytcheson,  the  best  perfor- 
mance turned  In  by  a  Trojan  this  year  was  Kevin 
Howell's  2S-polnt  game  against  Elkhart  Memorial, 
another  tough  team  on  Elmhurst's  schedule.  He  also 
thought  Taylor  looked  good  against  South.  When  they 
were  asked,  Howell  preferred  his  perlormance  In  Ihe 
Warsaw  game  while  Taylor  sighted  the  sectional 
game  agalnsi  Snider  In  which  he  scored  25  points. 

There  were  mined  emotions  over  the  year  in  general, 
Eytcheson  seemed  fairly  satisfied,  although  not  thrilled 
over  the  year's  performance.  He  pointed  out  the  two- 
game  improvement  over  last  year's  12-9  record  and 
said  that  with  summer  practice  and  improvement  m 
mental  attitude,  the  team  could  be  great  in  the  lol  lowing 
season. 

The  all-city  players  weren't  as  satisfied  over  the  sea- 
son s  performance  They  both  expressed  frustration 
and  the  feeling  that  it  could  have  been  better  However, 
both  agreed  ihat  prospects  are  good  for  next  year  with 
all  of  the  returning  players 

Fan  support,  which  some  people  aren't  satisfied 
with,  also  drew  mixed  reactions.  While  Kevin  Howell 
thought  II  was  excellent,  Don  Taylor  thought  II  was 
fair  at  home  and  poor  on  Ihe  road.  Coach  Eylcheson's 
feelings  were  somewhere  Inbetween  as  he  expressed 
general  satisfaction  with  It. 

As  for  their  future,  Taylor  hopes  to  get  a  scholarship 
and  play  college  basketball  somewhere  Howell  hopes 
to  ma)or  in  law  at  a  college  he  hasn't  decided  on  yet.

tries  to  stop  the  Ripper  from  spitting,  which  is  illegal  and  the  flipper 
attacks  him 

Now  the  Ripper  rips  off  Mr.  Good's  arm  and  he  is  beating  both  men 
with  it.  The  bell  rings  as  both  men  signal  they  are  defeated. 

The  undertakers  have  entered  the  ring  and  are  cleaning  up  between

Society  helps  needs 

Society  seems  to  take  care  of  all  of  our  needs  with  no 
if,andsorbutsabout  it  What  used  to  be  a  private  concern 
is  now  being  commercialized  for  the  benefit  of  a  group 
of  money  makers.  What  is  this  world  coming  to?  An  extreme 
reaction,  over  used  cliche  or  pertinent  question?  With  the 
current  trend  of  moral  beliefs  our  society  will  be  completely 
uninhibited. 

Sex  maps  are  not  the  only  items  contributing  towards 
this  trend.  Movies  which  rely  entirely  on  their  sex  scenes 
to  draw  crowds  are  also  demoralizing  our  society. 

Perverted  books  and  magazines  seem  to  be  the  "thing" 
today  which  can  be  proven  with  a  glance  on  any  magazine 
stand. 
Trend  hits  statistics 

Is  this  trend  affecting  people  in  any  particular  way'' 
Perhaps  a  look  at  the  latest  statistics  on  venereal  disease, 
murder-rape  cases,  the  recent  abortion  decision,  etc.  will 
exemplify  the  situation. 

Woman  explotation  is  also  being  confronted  by  many 
individuals.  It  is  used  in  many  advertisements  solely  for 
"appeal,"  A  beautiful  young  woman  running  through  a 
deserted  woods  tells  you  how  fresh  a  particular  kind  of 
cigarette  is. 

Also,  don't  be  alarmed  girls  when  your  first  gray  hair 
arrives.  It's  only  proof  that  you're  getting  better  instead 
of  older.  Funny,  the  majority  of  people  with  a  few  gray 
hairs  seem  to  be  getting  on  in  years  with  no  apparent 
change  for  the  "better'" 
Girls  need  help 

And  girls,  if  you're  looking  for  a  way  to  snatch  that  young 
man  you've  been  admiring,  be  sure  to  wear  the  same 
makeup  as  the  woman  in  the  magazine  and  of  course,  don't 
forget  your  sex  appeal  toothpaste.  Heaven  knows  what 
would  happen  if  you  brushed  with  something  different  than 
the  lovely  model  on  the  television  screen!

Corporal  punishment  in  clas-  their  case  against  corporal  pun- 
srooms,  until  recently,  has  been  ishment  to  the  Supreme  Court 
considered  a  problem  from  the  Dallas  is  noted  tor  probably 
past.  Lately,  though,  more  and  having  the  highest  rate  ot  pun- 
more  schools  are  faced  with  ishment  in  the  country, 
either  banning  or  condoning  il. 

Several  parents  and  '''

rshing 

Until  the  mid-sixties,  corporal 
punishment  was  considered  an 
acceptable  method  of  disci- 
pline in  all  educational  institu- 
tions A  child,  when  considered 
out  of  line  or  unruly,  could  be 
punished  by  any  teacher  or 
administrator  who  could  swing 
a  paddle. 
Schools  restrict  punishment 


Apparently,  corporal  punish- 
ment IS  not  dead.  Again,  many 
wish  to  see  it  banned  or  at  least 
restricted  in  favor  of  more  sub- 
tle forms  of  disciplining  chil- 
dren. 


Then,  with  the  wave  ot  new 
psychology  towards  children, 
ledbyDr  Benjamin  Spoch.  par- 
ents organized  to  restrict  cor- 
poral punishment  in  schools. 
Schools  restricted  its  use  as 
only  a  last  means  of  discipline 
According  to  Parent's 
Magazine,  some  school  sys- 
tems, such  as  New  York  City, 
Maryland  and  (Massachusetts 
have  already  banned  it 

The  magazme,  Nations 
Schools,  reveals  that  now  64 
per  cent  of  school  adminis- 
trators favor  corporal  punish- 
ment. A  Gallup  Pol!  further 
indicated  62  per  cent  of  the 
public  favored  it  also. 

Still,  several  organizations 
have  sprung  up  to  fig  hi  the  con- 
tinued use  of  such  punishment. 
With  an  estimated  500.000 
cases  ot  child  abuse  yearly. 
these  parents  see  it  as  only  add- 
ing coals  to  the  fire.

"Yes,  I  think  they  should

I  would  have  gone  to  Canada 
too.  Many  that  went  had  religi- 
ous beliefs  against  the  war.  I 
think  that  a  person  should  be

war  that  they  can't  control.  '

Music    review 


"I'm  for  amnesty  because  if 
they  didn't  believe  in  it  and  they 
went  to  Vietnam  they  wouldn't 
fight  anyway  They'd  prob- 

ably shoot  themselves  in  the  leg 
so  they  could  come  home. 
Granting  amnesty  would  most 
likely  bring  people  back 
together  because  it's  some- 
thing that  everyone  would  like 
to  have.  It's  splitting  families 
and  besides  Canada  doesn't 
want  the  dratt  dodgers  any- 
way," Junior  Pat  Thomas, 


Stevens  uses  acoustics 


by  Sue  Male 

Cat  Stevens  Catch  Bull  At 
Four  is  the  kind  of  album 
that's  good  for  reflections 
on  a  personal  level-  The 
lyrics  aren't  specific  in  most 
of  the  songs  and  they  can 
be  interpreted  in  many  dif- 
ferent ways  Most  of  the 
music  is  sad  and  concerns 
looking  back  on  good  and 
bad  times  and  wishing, 
remembering  and  learning 
from  all  of  them. 

"Silting  IS  one  ol  Ihe  besi  songs

Sonq  portrays  story 

The  "Boy  wilh  the  tvloon  and  Star

ing for  referral  service  lor  desperate 
young  people  who  leel  thai  have 
nowhere  else  to  turn. 

IMew  efforts  such  as  these  are 
being  created  because  self- 
destrucllon  has  shown  a  greater 
rise  among  young  people  than 
among  any  other  age  group.  It  is 
now  the  major  cause  of  deaths 
among  teenagers. 

These  deaths  cul  across  all  levels 
o(  society  The  assumption  that  the 
incidence  of  suicide  increases  with 
age  or  is  greater  among  the  poor 
or  minority  is  lalse.  Ten  years  ago 
the  typical  suicide  was  a  middle- 
aged  man.  Today  it  is  more  likely 
to  happen  to  his  teenage  son  or 
daughter. 

Last  year  on  college  campuses 

alone,  100,000  young  adults 
threatened  suicide.  10,000 
attempted  it  and  1 ,000  killed  them- 
selves, according  to  statistics 
reported  by  the  American  Institute 
of  Family  Relations.  E>perts 
estimate  almost  3,000  boys  and 
ages  of  fifteen

Probably  one  of  the  most  popular 
bands  that  evening  was  the  Jazz 
Assemblage  with  direclorJohn 
Berry.  This  group  originates  from 
Etkhart,  Indiana  and  is  composed 
of  salesmen  an  businessmen  of  all 
ages. 

Group  writes  arrangements 

Due  to  a  shortage  of  time  and 
money,  the  group  writes  most  of  its 
own  arrangements. One  particular 
highlight  which  brought  laughter 
and  appreciation  from  the  audi- 
ence was  atrumpet  section  solo 
featuring  all  of  the  trumpet  players 

The  last  group  to  play  that  evening 
was  the  I  U  State  Jazz  Band  with 
John  Spichnall,  director  These 
talented  musicians  played  many 
selections,  mcludinga  jazz-rock 
arrangement  ■  of  Thad  Jones

baritone  sax  player  looked  familiar 

Under  that  beard  was  Jim  Chane^ 
lastyear's  EHS  band's  bari  sax 
player. 


Shell  projects  sound 

The  acoustic  shell  buill  into  the 
ceiling  of  the  stage  was  designed 


and  constructed  bytheatre  arts 
instructor  Don  iioss.  The  shell 
helped  the  sounds  coming  from  the 
stage  projectinto  the  audience. 
This  proved  to  be  effective. 

All  of  the  music  performed  last 
weekend  was  prolessionaMy  tape 
recorded  by  seniors  TimPooler  and 
Roger  Longest.  Copies  of  the  tapes 
can  be  purchased  through  them. 

All  in  all,  the  festival  was  a  big 
success  and  everyone  is  looking 
forward  to  next  year. 


Twice  as  many  boys  as  girls  will 
attempt  suicide  usmo  more  violent 
means  Authontiessay  the  rale  may 
be  double  the  recorded  rate 
because  many  suicides  are  hushed 
up  to  protect  the  young  person's 
name,  family  or  to  avoid  being 
penalized  on  insurance  policies 
which  pay  less  than  face  value  for 
suicides. 

In  addition,  many  young  deaths 
are  registered  as  accidentaT^  or 
■'under  the  influence  of  drugs"  by 
cooperative  coroners.  A  positive 
aspect  of  this  surge  of  suicides  is 
the  life  of  almost  every  suicidal  per- 
son can  be  saved,  provided  help 
reachers  find  him  soon  enough 

ivlany  of  Ihe  young  people  who 
need  help  the  most  are  not  turning 
lo  conventional  sources  ol  help. 
There  are  (wo  hundred  estab- 
lished suicide  prevention  centers 
in  the  country  today  that  maintain 
34-hour  telephone  and  referral 
services  along  with  university 
campus  physicians  and  psychiat- 
rists and  the  community  mental 
and  health  clinics. 

Some  are  too  afraid  or  too 
untrusting  to  ask  lor  aid.  Others 
avoid  going  to  family  doctors  and 
campus  psychiatrists  for  fear  their 
families  will  be  notified  or  it  will  go 
on  their  records  and  interfere  with 
job-hunting. 

Instead,  they^re  turning  increas- 
ingly to  their  own  peers  for  under- 
standing and  council  They  turn  to 
fellow  teenagers  they  can  trust  and 
identify  with  This  is  what  makes 
such  services  as  the  teen  hotlines

rams.

Hoosiers 
capture  Big 
Ten  crown 

by  Tom  Boyer 

For  the  first  time  since  1967. 
Indiana's  Hurrin'  Hoosiers  won  the 
Big  Ten  Conlerencetitle,  By  winn- 
ing the  title,  I  U  moves  into  the  N 
C  A  A  tourney  facing  Marquette  in 
theirlitst  game. 

Indiana  needed  the  help  ot  Iowa 
and  Northwestern  to  win  the  title 
Last  week  Minnesota  had  a  one 
game  lead  over  Indiana  with  two 
games  tett  to  play.  All  Minnesota 
had  to  dowas  defeat  Iowa  with  a  6-6 
record  and  Northweslern  with  a  2- 
12  record  and  they  would  winthe 
title. 

Against  Iowa,  Minnesota  had  a 
giant  lead  at  the  half  only  lo  have 
Iowa  come  back  witha  late  rally  to 
win  79-77  Minnesota  still  had  a 
chance  for  a  tie  with  Indiana  for 
the  tilleif  they  could  beat 
Northwestern.  Northwestern's 
Mark  Sibley  put  an  end  to  Min- 
nesota'shopes  as  he  scored  35 
points  in  leading  Northwestern  to 
a  79-74  victory. 
Indiana  wins  title 

Indiana  had  to  win  its  last  two 
games  to  win  the  title.  They  won 
both  games  and  the  title.First  they 
defeated  Iowa  and  won  a  close 
game  Irom  Purdue  by  a  score  of  77- 
72  In  thegame  against  Purdue, 
Indiana  would  seem  to  break  the 
game  wide  open  only  to  have 
theBoilermakers  come  back. 
With  live  minutes  lefl  in  their  game 
I U  led  62-51  but  Purdue  came  back 
to  cut  the  lead  tofive  points.  With 
two  minutes  to  go  the  Hoosiers 
upped  their  lead  to  ten  points. 
Purdue  started  another  rally  but  ran

son's 20  points. 


by  Tom  Jarjour 

After  years  of  Irustration,  it 
appears  the  Fort  Wayne  Komets 
have  a  winner.  With  but  a  few 
games  to  go,  the  1972-73  edi- 
tion of  the  Komets  is  on  top  ot 
the  IHL  by  three  points. 

Blending  promising  young 
players  and  proven  veterans  as 
a  minor  league  team  should, 
they  should  also  be  tough  to 
beat  in  the  play-offs.  They  have 
missed  the  olay-offs  only  four 


times  in  their  rich  21-year  hic- 
tory  dating  back  to  1952.  Fori 
Wayne  is  the  oldest  continuing 
team  now  in  existance  in  the 
IHL. 

Coached  by  Marc  Boilean  for  the 
second  year,  this  year's  edition  of 
the  Komets  has  a  sparkling  44-23-3 
record  with  91  points.  This  is  but 
1 1  points  away  from  the  all-time  IHL 
record  of  102,  set  by  the  1959-60 
Komets,  John  Ferguson,  later  of 
Montreal  Canadian  frame,  led  that 


Anderson  tops  Bruins 
for  berth  in  state  finals 


by  MlKe  Arnold 

Anderson's  highly  ranked  Indians 
combined  their  many  talents  early 
in  the  second  half  and  pulled  away 
from  cold-shooting  Fort  Wayne's 
Northrop  to  advance  to  the  state 
semifinals. 

What  began  as  a  very  close  game 
between  two  high-ranked  teams 
ended  up  with  the  North  Central 
Conference  tillists  winning  by  23 
points,  92-69. 
Anderson  overpowers  Northrop 

Even  though  both  teams  were 
well  rested  from  easy  afternoon 
games,  Northrop  couldn't  keep  up 
with  Anderson's  superior  shooting 
and  overpowering  speed. 

Although  Anderson  got  off  to  a 
slow  start,  when  the  first  quarter 
was  over,  they  hit  9  out  of  19  field 
goals  for  a  ,478  pace.  They  con- 
tinued to  scorch  the  nets  for  the 
remainder  of  the  game.  They  ended 
up  shooting  an  incredible  ,578  clip 
on  37  out  ot  64  shots, 

Northrop  )ust  couldn't  keep  up 
with  the  Tribes'  amazing  accuracy 
and  only  connected  on  30  of  82 
shots  for  3  dismal  .366  shooting 
pace. 

Anderson's  three  big  men  com- 
bined for  55  points  as  forward  Harry 
Stamp  and  Ron  Taylor  hit  for  10  and 
22  points  respectively,  and  center 
Tony  Marshall  topped  all  Indian 
scores  with  24  points. 
Whitt  takes  honors 

Mike  Whitt  took  game  honors 


with  ^tj  points  while  teammaies 
Walter  Jordan  and  Mike  Muff  got 
12  and  13  in  that  order.  Northrop's 
loss  snapped  their  10-game  winn- 
ing streak  and  left  them  with  a  very 
good  24-3  record. 

Anderson's  chances  of  taking  the 
covetted  state  title  are  very  promis- 
ing, especially  since  highly  ranked 
Tell  City  was  upset  by  New  Albany, 

The  Indians,  with  a  25-2  record, 
can  definately  be  considered  a 
strong  contender  If  they  can  use 
their  many  talents  m  Bloomington 
as  well  as  they  did  in  Fort  Wayne, 
they  could  become  state  champs 
very  easily. 

Next  Saturday  Anderson  will  play 
South  Bend  Adams  who  sports  a 
21-5  record,  and  Franklm,  24-3, 
plays  New  Albany,  19-7

great  team  of  the  past. 
Goalie  comes  back 

Leading  the  team  at  goalie  are 
Robbie  Irons  and  Don  Atchison. 
Irons  was  very  successful  with  the 
Komets  in  the  mid-60's  and  worked 
his  way  up  to  the  NHL.  He  had  linie 
success  as  the  third  goalie  ol  the 
St  Louis  Blues,  however,  and  he 
came  back  to  the  Komets  a  couple 
of  years  ago  and  is  doing  a  fine  job 
here, 

Atchison  IS  one  of  the  four 
Komets  who  is  a  professional 
owned  by  the  Pittsbur  Penguins, 
the  parent  club  of  the  minor  league 
Komets,  He's  a  promising  young 
rookie  who's  doing  an  excellent  |ob 
in  the  nets. 

Another  promising  rookie  is  Dean 
Sheremeta,  As  of  the  beginning  of 
March,  he  had  30  goals  and  was 
approaching  the  all-lime  IHL  record 
for  game  winning  goals.  Hot  on  his 
trail  IS  Chick  Balon,  an  IHL  veteran 
who  returned  lo  the  Komets  this 
year. 

Leading  the  team  in  total  points 
and  assists  is  Wayne  Ego.  He  is  the 
only  Komet  in  Ihe  top  ten  in  scoring 
in  the  IHL,  The  Komets  could  easily 
end  up  with  9  men  with  20  goals 
and  2  with  30 

Fort  Wayne's  defense,  best  in  the 
IHL  in  terms  of  goals  allowed,  is 
manned  by  a  rookie  and  four  vete- 
rans. Bob  Kirk  is  new  to  the  Komets

WLYV  jocks  battle  faculty 


by  Tom  Jarjour 

In  an  efforl  to  raise  money  for  the  American  Field 
Service,  the  faculty  of  Elmhurst  High  School  will 
put  on  their  old  basketball  shoes  and  play  a  benefit 
game  against  a  team  comprised  of  disc  jockeys  from 
local  radio  station  WLYV 

The  game,  which  will  be  held  on  March  23  at 
8:00  p.m.  will  also  feature  faculty  cheerleaders  and 
an  all-faculty  band  performing  at  halftime.  A  game 
between  two  teams  of  seniors  will  precede  the  mam 
event.  Tickets  for  the  game  at  the  Elmhurst  gym 
will  be  on  sale  for  $1  each. 
Eligibility  becomes  problem 

The  game  was  originally  going  to  be  between  the 
teachers  and  a  group  of  seniors.  Eligibility  became 
a  problem,  however,  and  a  call  from  Elmtiurst  alum- 
nus Kevin  Grove  cancelled  this  plan.  When  he  heard 
the  faculty  was  going  to  play,  he  proposed  a  game 
against  the  WLYV  disc  jockeys. 


Some  of  the  teachers  that  might  be  expected  to 
participate  include  Mr.  Sweet,  Mr.  Eager.  Mr. 
Eytcheson.  Mr  Habegger,  Mr  Bunnell,  Mr,  Lohr, 
Mr  Bistline,  Mr  Welbourne  and  Mr.  Derbyshire. 
They  have  been  practicing  after  school  in  hopes 
of  winning  this  contest

Steinem  asks  equality 


by  Bill  Watson 

Glona  Sleinem,  a  leading  proponant  of  the 
Women  s  Liberation  movement,  spoke  recenlly  at 
lU-Purdues  student  union 

Ms.  Steinem  is  touring  nationally  lo  inform  the 
public  about  the'women's  movement.  As  editor  of 
Ms.  magazine,  she  has  become  the  best  noted 
liberalionist  today 

Rather  than  preaching  a  gospel  ol  bra-burnmg 
tactics,  she  revealed  a  more  ralional  reasoning  for 
the  movement  Stemem  pointed  lo  the  lack  of 
responsibility  delegated  to  women  by  a  politically 
minded  society  She  explained.  We  are  just  work- 
ers, inexpensive  labor." 
Activist  makes  statement 

Shie  further  stated.  M  there  are  200  women  typists 
in  an  office  and  12  men  in  ihe  board  room,  that  s 
politics  You  have  85  public  schools  m  this  area 
and  only  four  women  principals  That  s  politics 
When  a  woman  works  to  put  her  husband  through 
graduate  school,  but  the  reverse  is  not  true,  that's 
politics  When  both  the  husband  and  wife  work  out- 
side the  home,  but  she  is  still  more  responsible  lor 
care  of  Ihe  home  and  the  kids  than  the  husband 
IS,  that  politics." 


Ms  Steinem  satirized  the  assumed  inequality 
between  men  and  women  She  claimed  that 
although  there  is  natural  difference  they  are  only 
important  m  isolated  lunclions.  These  differences 
are  still  the  basis  tor  their  second  class  citizenship 

The  women  s  rights  activist  attacked  the  news 
media  also  for  its  part  m  the  myth  about  female 
inequality  She  claimed  at  no  time  did  anyone  burn 
their  bra  but  the  media  presisis  on  picturing  the 
movement  as  so 
Steinem  questions  messages 

Steinem  addressed  the  maioniy  of  women  in  the 
crowd  of  725  by  saying  women  were  through  report- 
ing their  sufferings,  that  now  they  must  stand  up 
lor  their  rights.  She  asked  that  women  question  tex- 
tbooks and  professor  s  messages  which  only  serves 
to  increase  the  myths  about  women. 

In  a  plea  for  male  responsibility  in  the  home,  Ms. 
Stemem  said  children  are  deprived  ol  a  fatherly 
influence  We  re  making  a  fantastic  discovery,  chil- 
dren have  two  parents,    she  claimed 

Ms,  Steinem  concluded  by  asking  the  support  of 
everyone  (or  Ihe  Equal  Rights  Amendment.  The 
amendment  is  now  before  Indiana  s  legislature.  She 
smiled  and  said.  The  eyes  of  the  world  are  on 
Indiana,  how  often  does  thai  happen   '

Sioux  Indians  demand 
fast  federal  response 

Sioux  Indians  have  been  revolting  against  federal  author- 
ity at  Wounded  Knee,  South  Dakota  The  Indians  want  the 
"trail  ol  broken  treaties"  to  be  made  visible  to  the  public, 
according  to  US  News  and  World  Reporl. 

Wounded  Knee  is  one  of  the  Pine  Ridge  Reservations 
of  the  Oglala  Sioux  and  was  chosen  as  the  revolting  area 
for  historical  reasons.  In  December,  1890,  United  States 
troops  massacred  approximately  250  Indian  men,  women 
and  children,  It  was  the  final  battle  for  the  control  of  the 
West.  American  Indian  Movement  leaders  are  holding  the 
area  with  about  200  other  Indians. 

Eleven  hostages  were  held,  ranging  in  ages  from  12 
to  82  years.  At  least  half  of  the  captives  were  over  65. 
Prior  to  their  release,  the  200  Indians  demanded  a  Senate 
probe  of  the  Bureau  of  Indian  affairs.  The  Sioux  claimed 
corruption  was  within  this  bureau. 

No  force  has  been  used  to  remove  the  Indians,  but  gunfire 
has  been  prevalent  at  the  site.  An  FBI  agent  was  treated 
for  minor  gunshot  wounds.  As  of  March  12,  73  persons 
have  been  arrested  in  connection  with  the  disturbances 
at  Wounded  Knee. 

The  government  considered  the  possibility  of  cutting  off 
water,  telephone  and  electricity  to  the  militants  in  an 
attempt  to  "change  their  lifestyle  to  the  pomt  where  they 
will  want  to  come  out  peacefully;.',  according  to  Wayne  Col- 
burn,  director  of  the  United  States  Marshall  s  Service. 

Russell  Means,  a  leader  of  the  AIM  wants  to  deal  with 
the  government  based  on  the  1868  treaty  with  the  Sioux. 
This  treaty  guaranteed  the  Sioux  the  domain  over  the 
vast  Northern  Plains  that  lie  between  the  Missouri  River 
and  the  Rocky  Mountains.  This  used  to  be  the  grazing 
grounds  of  the  buffalos  in  which  the  Indians  depended 
upon  for  their  food  supply. 

Not  all  Indians  are  in  alliance  with  Russell  Means  and 
his  colleagues.  Dick  Wilson,  chairman  of  the  Oglala  Sioux 
Tribal  Council  on  the  Pine  Ridge  Reservation  at  Wounded 
Knee  refers  to  Ihe  militants  as  "moochers  and  vagrants," 

Presently  the  federal  government  spends  Si  billion  a  year 
on  the  Indians  which  includes  education,  job  training,  land 
management,  road  and  irrigation  systems,  business  loans, 
health  services,  legal  aid  and  housing.  Beginning  July  1 
the  aid  has  been  raised  to  $1  45  billion  for  the  following 
12  months 

There  are  approximately  800.000  American  Indians  with 
477.500  living  on  reservations.  The  young  militants  at 
Wounded  Knee  want  an  immediate  response  to  their 
demands  for  return  of  their  ancestral  land. 


Communes  show  trend

It  has  reached  a  roaring

Santana  stirs  opposition 

Ku  .lanat  Roll  I  I 


by  Janet  Bell 

In  midst  of  the  rain  and 
sleet  falling,  Friday,  March 
16.  a  good  crowd  appeared 
at  the  Memorial  Coliseum  to 
hear  as  advertised  on  the 
radio.  Carlos  Santana  lead- 
ing his  group  through  per- 
formances of  Abraxaas  and 
Caravan  Serai. 

The  warm  up  group,  Peace, 
played  a  variety  of  soul  tunes 
astheaudience  responded  with 
rhythmic  clapping,  Bobby 
Womack,  the  lead  singer,  was 
featured  clad  in  blue  silk.  He 
lead  a  soulFul  strut  across  the 
stage  followed  by  the  brass  sec- 
tion swinging  their  instruments 
like  batons  in  unison  to  the 
music. 

Ending  their  set  at  approx 
imately  9:30  p,m,,  the  lights 
went  on  and  intermission 
began  with  taped  music  being 
piped  through  the  coliseum. 
This  concert  was  somewhat 
unique  in  that  there  was  a  large 
number  of  blacks  present 
which  is  unusual  for  most  rock 
concerts  A  reason  for  this 
might  be  the  presence  of  black 
members  in  Santana  and 
Peace,  Another  for  the  con- 
glomeration of  people  in  the 
audience  is  the  sounds  of  San- 
tana aren't  like  the  hard-driving 
rock  of  most  of  the  other  groups 
to  hit  Fort  Wayne. 
Emcee  introduces  Santana 

After  delay,  the  emcee 
stepped  to  the  microphone  and 
introduced  Santana  from  San 
Francisco  as  applause  echoed 
through  the  rotunda.  The  show 
started  oft  with  tiny  flickers  of 


light  illuminating  faces  of 
smokers  lighting  up.  The  crowd 
was  receptive  and  intent  finding 
the  sounds  of  the  music  light 
and  easy  to  listen  to.  As  the 
show  progressed  and  only 
some  of  the  promised  selec- 
tions were  played,  the  audience 
grew  restless  and  began  ques- 
tioning as  to  whether  Carlos 
Santana  was  among  the  perfor- 
mers 

The  individual  talent  dis- 
played in  the  group  was 
unbelievable.  The  organ, 
rhythm  section  and  bass  "took 
turns  in  the  spotlight  revealing 
each  one's  ability  and  skill  to 
play  their  instruments  to  the  ful- 
lest. 

One  must  say,  though,  the 
lead  guitarist  stole  the  show,  as 
his  fingers  flew  with  ease  and 
improvisation.  He  had  mastered 
his  guitar  and  was  coaxing  it  to 
the  limit. 
Hecklers  shout  requests 

Toward  the  end  of  the  con- 
cert hecklers  began  to  shout 
out  hit  songs  everyone  had 
expected  to  be  played, 
although  to  no  avail.  One  of  the 
most  dissappointing  aspects  of 
the  concert  was  that  virtually  no 
lyrics  were  heard.  Of  the  few 
tfiat  were  uttered,  most  of  them 
were  Spanish  and  undist- 
inguishable  anyway. 

This  absence  of  lyrics  was 
attributed  partly  to  the  fact  that 
Santana  has  undergone  a 
change  in  their  style  of  music 
and  possibly  lost  their  lead  voc- 
als. 

By  11  p.m.,  one  third  of  the 
crowd  could  be  seen  shuffling 


out  of  the  arena,  many  had  left 
before  falling  asleep  and  in  a 
rush  to  avoid  the  traffic. 

The  remaining  crush  of 
people  near  the  group  still 
pounded  to  the  music  but  the 
stands  dwindled  as  they  gave 
up  hope  and  thought  grimly  of 
the  blanket  of  snow  that  had 
settled  outside.

Twenty  years  ago  Itie  mention  of 
venereal  disease  was  swept  under 
the  carpel  and  seemed  to  be  disap- 
pearing. Today,  however,  venereal 
I  disease  has  reached  epidemic 
proporttons  in  Ihe  United  Stales, 
Fort  Wayne  has  realized  thai  Ihe 
problem  is  now  among  us 

Many  people  still  consider  ven- 
,  ereal  disease  the  properly  of  Ihe 
lower  economic  groups.  VD  infects 
men  and  women  of  all  ages  and 
ethnic  groups.  There  are  several 
types  ol  venereal  infections,  but 
only  two  are  of  importance  today 
-  syphilis  and  gonorrhea  Among 
the  communicable  diseases, 
gonorrhea  is  now  second  in  fre- 
quency only  to  Ihe  common  cold, 
and  a  new  case  appears  every  15 
seconds  Ninety  per  cent  of  the 
women  infected  with  this  disease 
are  between  Ihe  ages  of  15  and  29. 

In  Fort  Wayne,  the  VD  problem 
has  reached  epidemic  propor- 
tions. The  city  does  have  a  ven- 
ereal disease  clln  located  In  the 
City  County  Building.  "The  highest 
rate  ot  venereal  disease  occurs  In 
the  teenage  group,  the  18  to  22 
year  olds,"  related  a  spokesman 
at  the  clinic.  The  Fort  Wayne  clinic 
treats  SO  to  100  people  a  month 
for  some  kind  of  venereal  disease. 
The  number  to  contact  at  the  clinic 
l9  423-7504. 

The  incidence  ot  venereal  dis- 
ease has  been  increasing  steadily 
since  1957.  Public  health  officials 
have  forecast  that  in  the  1970's 
there  will  be  four  million  new  cases 
of  gonorrhea  a  year  in  this  country. 

Many  mylhs  are  Still  present 
today  thai  venereal  disease  can  be 
contracted  from  such  things  as 
towels,  loilet  seals  and  cooking 


utensils.  The  scary  fact  about  ven- 
ereal disease  is  it  can  remain  dor- 
mant ten  or  more  years  and  then 
erupt  in  a  serious  (orm.  Severe 
heart  disease,  blindness  and  brain 
damage  may  occur,  and  will  some- 
limes  end  in  Ihe  death  of  the 
patient. 

Treatment  lor  both  syphilis  and 
gonorrtiea  Is  highly  successful, 
and  little  serious  damage  will 
occur  If  the  diagnosis  Is  made 
early  In  the  course  ol  Ihe  disease. 
In  the  past,  penicillin  has  been 
very  ellectlve  ol  stopping  syphilis 
and  gonorrhea  In  Ihe  early  stages. 

Why  should  diseases  such  as 
these  so  thoroughly  understood 
medically  and  with  such  highly 
effective  Ireatmenis  pose  one  of  the 
largest  public-health  problems  Ihe 
world  has  ever  known?  Apathy  plus 
the  reluctance  ol  people  lo  accept 
Ihe  reality  ot  VO.  Doctors,  knowing 
these  diseases  could  be  eradicated 
by  a  single  shot  of  penicillin, 
became  less  concerned  about 
them. 

In  Ihe  past,  one  of  Ihe  major  prob- 
lems m  the  treatment  of  VD  in  adol- 
scence  has  been  the  fear  ol  going 
lo  get  medical  help  because  the 
person  didn't  want  the  parents  to 
know 

LIscensed  pnyslclar>3  are  non 
allowed  to  diagnose  and  treat  any- 
one under  21  who  has  VD,  without 
Ihe  knowledge  of  the  Individual's 
parents. 

Control  ot  the  VD  epidemic  can 
be  contained  only  by  activity  on  the 
part  of  both  the  medical  profession 
and  public. 


Cards    reveal    origins 


Ever  wonder,  while  glaring  al  a 
rotten  poker  hand  or  contemplating 
game  of  solitaire,  about  the  origin 
behind  Ihe  faces  and  symbols  on 
those  cards? 

No  one  knows,  from  his  plastic 
deck  ot  kings  and  queens  made 
slippery  lor  last  dealing,  how  com- 
plicated the  ancestry  ol  Ihe  modern 
ptaymg  card  was  How  cards  were 
ttrst  introduced  into  Europe  is  not 
known  They  may  have  been 
brought  from  China  where  they 
were  used  for  gambling  and  lorlune 
telling  since  Ihe  10th  century.  There 
IS  some  evidence  they  may  have 
migrated  trom  Ihe  Middle  East  wilh 
returning  cursaders 

The  division  of  the  deck  into  tour 
suits  is  thought  to  have  been  a  refer- 
ence to  Ihe  tour  quarters  of  the 
world.  But  the  tour-suit  deck  is  a 
Weitprn  invention.

State  basketball  finals 


NCAA  Tournament 


After  five  unsuccessful 
attempts.  New  Albany  reached 

the  pinnacle  ol  Indiana  High 
School  Basketball  last  Saturday 
night  when  they  downed  South 
Bend  Adanns  84-79  in  the  final 
game  of  the  63rd  IHSAA  State 
Basketball  Tournament. 

On  the  basis  of  Saturday 
afternoon's  performance,  the 
title  game  would  have  to  be 
classed  as  an  upset  and  a  sur- 
prise in  the  two  session  meet. 
The  Bulldogs,  running  their 
record  to  21-7,  established 
command  inthe second  quarter 
and  led  for  the  last  two  and  a 
half  periods  on  route  to  their 
first  state  title. 
Adams  closes  season 

South  Bend  Adams  closed 
out  the  season  with  a  22-6 
record.  They  led  by  eight  points 
at  the  first  stop  Saturday  night 
but  wilted  under  New  Albany's 
comeback  and  13  lor  21  shoot- 
ing in  the  second  quarter. 

Forwards  Julius  Norman  and 
Norman  Mukes  and  guard  Dale 
Slaughter  combined  tor  63 
points  in  leading  the  New 
Albany  attack.  Norman,  who 
finished  with  25.  tallied  1 6  in  the 
first  half. 

Game  high  honors  went  to 
Adams'  James  Webb,  who 
scored  34  points  The  Eagle 
guard  accounted  for  13  in  the 
first  quarter.  Ironically,  how- 
ever, it  was  Webb  who  experi- 
enced a  scoring  drought  in  the 
two  middle  periods  when  the 
Bulldogs  came  back. 
Webb  hits  seven 

Webb  hit  seven  of  his  first 
twelve  shots  from  the  field.  He 
also  managed  to  connect  only 
one  of  his  next  15  shots  and  it 
crippled  Adams,  which  builds 
its  offense  around  him. 

This  was  New  Albany's  sixth 
trip  to  the  final  four  and  it  lost 
the  afternoon  game  in  each  of 
the  previous  trips.  South  Bend 
Adams  was  playing  in  its  first 
state  final 


Norman  finished  with  25 
points.  Mukes  tallied  21  and 
Slaughter  picked  up  17.  Follow- 
ing Webb  in  the  Adams  attack 
were  Steve  Austin,  Ray  Martin 
and  Bill  Hill  with  17,  11  and  10. 
New  Albany  posts  percentage 

New  Albany  posted  a  very  fine 
.480  shooting  percentage,  sink- 
ing 36  of  75  attempts.  Adams 
hit  only  31  of  86  for  a  ,360  figure. 

The  evening  attendance  was 
17,386.  The  combined 
attendance  of  34,744  is  a  new

ing last  years  total  of  34,502 


Athletes  on  tight  budget 


Some  athletes  and  coaches  have 
been  complaining  recently  about 
the  tight  athletic  director  They 
cant  understand  why  Mr.  Bush 
won't  give  them  money  and  charted 
buses  for  their  sporting  events 

Mr  Bush  s  reason  IS  simple  there 
Is  no  money  for  these  trips  Other 
schools  also  lace  this  problem  The 
athletic  department  receives  no  tax 
money  to  support  the  athletic 
teams  All  of  the  money  lor  these 
teams  comes  from  the  sate  ol  tic- 
kets at  football,  basketball,  wrest- 
ling and  track  meets.

by  Mike  Arnold 

Indiana's  sixth  ranked  Hoosiers  blew  a  13-point  halflime  lead, 
and  then  finished  strong  to  beat  Kentucky  72-65  last  Saturday 
afternoon.  The  Hoosiers  who  beat  a  superb  Marquette  team  earlier 
in  the  week,  now  play  top  ranked  UCLA  in  their  semi-final  match 
tomorrow. 


Kentucky  got  oft  to  a  quick  start 
when  they  hit  their  first  five  shots 
and  SIX  out  ol  their  first  seven  With 
lour  minutes  gone  and  Kentucky 
leading  14-6,  Indiana  displayed 
their  fearful  defense  which  caused 
numerous  turnovers  and  allowed 
them  to  control  Ihe  game 
RItter  triggers  attack 

Senior  John  Ritter  triggered  the 
attack  by  converting  a  three  point 
play  and  soon  afterward,  Steve 
Downing  connected  lor  seven 
straight  points  giving  Indiana  their 
first  lead  at  22-20. 

The  Hoosiers  continued  to  lead 
by  3  lo  5  points  until  the  4  16  mark 
of  the  first  halt  when  Downing  went 
Ojl  another  scoring  spree  and 
scored  six  straight  points.  Overall 
in  the  last  four  minutes  of  the  first 
half  Indiana  outscored  Kentucky 
12-2  and  went  into  the  locker  room 
with  a  45-32  lead 

However,  Kentucky  was  not 
about  to  give  up.  The  Wildcats 
started  the  second  half  with  a  full 
court  press  and  gradually  fought 
back  into  contention 
Game  tlea  at  63 

Moments  laler  Kentucky's  Jimmy 
Dan  Conner  hit  a  field  goal  to  give 
his  team  a  brief  61-59  lead    Then

close  a  player  to  Oscar  Robertson 
as  I  have  ever  seen,  "  stated  Mar- 
queltes  coach  Al  McGuire 


sale  of  these  tickets  is  the  largest 
part  of  the  athletic  department's 
income.  All  of  the  money  goes 
directly  to  Elmhutsls  athletic 
department.  The  sale  of  tickets  at 
the  game  must  be  split  evenly  with 
the  opponent's  school. 
Holders  save  money 

If  more  students  bought  season 
tickets  the  athletic  department 
would  make  more  money  and  the 
students  would  save  money  By 
buying  a  $5  season  pass  to  the  bas- 
kelball games,  a  student  would  save 
money  if  he  went  to  five  of  the  nine

only  have  to  pay  75'  instead  of  SI  .25 
for  away  games  il  he  bought  a  sea-

Students  schedule  play 


TiyouTs  for  the  spring  p[ay  "Wait 
Until  Dark"  were  held  this  past  week 
and  performances  will  be  given  April 
28,29  and  May  4  and  5  in  the  school 
gymnasium  according  to  Mr.  Don 
Goss,  theater  department. 

"Last  year  the  students  in  stage- 
craft did  a  second  play.  "Dido  and 
Aneas,"  at  the  First  Presbyterian 
theater.  This  year  the~kids  asked  why 
they  couldn't  do  another  play.  The 
interest  seems  high  and  a  lot  of  kids 
are  or  have  been  involved  in  drama  and 
the  theater  before."  stated  Mr,  Goss. 
"We  talked  about  several  plays  and 
"Wait  Until  Dark"  was  one  of  the 
plays  that  they  really  seemed  to  tike." 
The  play  deals  with  a  mystery  and 
has  eight  characters  -  six  of  them 
being  men.  "The  characters  are  all 
tremendous.  There  is  a  blind  girl 
named  Susie  and  that  is  the  lead  girl 
pari.  The  other  girl  is  Gloria  who  is  a 
9'/;  year-old  bright  but  ornery  kid  who 


lives  above  Susie's  apartmeni.' 

"Susie's  husband  Sam  is  a  photo- 
grapher. The  set  will  be  a  kitchen  and 
a  dining  room  combination  with  a 
photo-lab  setup  for  him.  The  apart- 
ment is  in  a  basement  and  alt  the 
scenes  are  interior," 

"Before  we  ever  see  Susie,  the 
apartment  is  entered  by  three  ex-con- 
victs  who  are  looking  for  a  doll  with 
something  very  valuable  in  it  that  they 
want,"  commented  Mr.  Goss, 
Mike  befriends  Susie 

"One  of  the  ex-cons  is  Mike  and  he 
tries  to  get  the  doll  by  befriending 
Susie.  The  second  convict  is  Saigeant 
Carlino.  He  tries  to  get  the  doll  by 
using  strong-arm  methods.  He  figures 
he  can  find  it  by  searching  for  himself. 
He's  also  a  safe  cracker  and  tries  to  get 
in  to  a  safe  in  the  apartment." 


".The  next  convict  ts  also  an  imper- 
sonator. He  plays  both  Mr,  Roat 
Junior  and  Mr.  Roat  Senior  and  is  sort 
of  the  ring  leader  of  the  three.  It  is  he 
who  pulls  the  whole  trio  together 
along  with  Lisa,  a  friend  who  lives  in 
the  same  apartment  as  Susie.  She  is 
one  of  Roat's  victims  and  is  found 
dead  in  the  closet.  Roat  is  so  intent  on 
getting  the  doll  that  blood  runs  several 
times." 

"It's  a  show  I've  been  wanting  to 
do  for  years,"  stated  tVlr,  Goss.  "The 
kids  are  also  finding  how  much  fun  it 
is  to  work  with  suspense.  The  last 
scenes  get  pretty  exciting." 

"I  think  having  another  play  is  a 
sign  of  more  student  interest  and  spirit 
in  the  school  developing.  The  kids  who 
are  getting  involved  in  this  type  of 
thing  are  really  finding  it  exciting."

Drug  manufacturers 
confront  ad  difficulties 


The  Federal  government  recently  asked  major  manufac- 
turers of  aspirin  to  stop  claiming  superiority  over  other 
brands 

As  a  pari  of  tfieir  purge  on  false  or  misleading  advertis- 
ing, the  Federal  Trade  Administration  claims  no  difference 
in  effectiveness  between  brands  of  aspirin.  Whether  the 
commercial  clai.ns  immediate  help  or  not.  it  apparently 
doesn't  make  any  difference  what  aspirin  you  use. 

The  manufacturers,  however,  claim  that  their  data  on 
their  products  effectiveness  is  strong  enough  to  hold  up 
in  a  court  of  law.  Despite  government  threats  of  making 
official  complaint,  these  drug  companies  continue  their 
commercials. 

Bayer,  Excedrin,  and  Buftenn.  the  three  major  com- 
petitors are  now  being  told  to  correct  the  myth  about  aspirin 
via  their  advertisements.  According  to  Newsweek,  a  per- 
centage of  their  advertisements  would  be  used  for  correc- 
tive advertising. 

The  FTA  seems  to  be  examing  all  advertisements  for  pos- 
sible fraud  so  consumers  no  longer  have  to  decide  which 
commercial  is  true. 


Board  approves 

Schools  install  devices 


by  Jayne  Langmeyer 

The  Fort  Wayne  Commun- 
ity School  Board  has 
recently  approved  a  prop- 
osal to  install  electronic  sur- 
veillance equipment  in  56 
Fort  Wayne  Community 
Schools.  Lavon  Miller,  direc- 
tor of  building  and  grounds, 
believes  the  project  is  to  cost 


apDroximatelv  S39.000. 


The  equipment  will    "eavesdrop 

on  inrruders  '  and  moniler  mechan- 
ical operations  inside  Ihe  buildings. 
It  may  include  a  smoke  deleclor  bul 
Millet  said  ■  they  are  not  really 
needed  now  " 

Proposals  had  been  made  due  lo 
ihe  large  costs  ol  vandalism  and 
thell  inside  schools  The  1971 
school  year  suffered  a  loss  ot 
568,000  while  559,690  was  lost  in 
1972  The  12  per  cent  decline  was 
attributed  lo  security  systems  that 
have  previously  been  installed  in  a 
number  o(  schools 


"Yes  I  think  students  rights 
are  violated  because  we  don't 
tiave  much  say  so  in  the  school 
"government".  I  think  we 
should  have  the  right  not  to  get 
in  trouble  by  not  going  to  class 
and  if  something  doesn't  go  right 
in  class  wc  should  be  able  to 
leave  when  we  want.  1  don't 
think  we  need  passes  to  go  to 
various  places.  Instead  of  having 
to  hide  to  smoke  cigarettes  we 
should  have  some  sort  of  student 
lounge.  We  can  smoke  in  any 
other  public  place  so  why  not  in 
the  school."  senior  Linda 
Quigiey. 

"Definitely  students  should 
have  more  rights.  It's  sort  of  lii<e 
we're  learning  under  adverse 
conditions.  Like  the  way  the 
school  is  run     .     they  iust  can't 


get  tho  maximum  out  of  it  just 
becasue  of  rules.  If  they'd 
change  things  around  a  little  so 
we'd  like  .  .  .  you  remember 
things  you  like  because  it  has  a 
good  effect  on  you."  junior 
Vicki  Veale. 

"Yes  I  think  they  should 
make  the  work  easier  and  have 
the  teachers  understand  the  kids 
more.  I  really  don't  think  kids 
learn  the  things  that  will  really 
be  relevant  to  them  in  later  life" 
sophomore  Bea  Hurd. 

"1  think  they  are  violated 
because  we  don't  have  very 
much  say  in  the  system.  We  have 
to  spend  twelve  long  years  in  the 
school  system  so  why  can't  we 
have  the  opportunity  to  make 
the  best  of  it"  junior  Cindy 
Webb. 


New  electronic  devices  will 
include  super  sensitive  mic- 
rophones A  man  will  be  stationed 
at  the  console  board  ol  Zeis  Secur- 
ity Systems  and  will  moniter  ever^ 
sound.  He  will  then  contact  Ihe 
police  and  they  should  arrive  al  the 
building  in  less  than  live  minutes 

TheequipmeniistocostS700per 
school  and  the  Fort  Wayne  Com- 
munity Schools  will  also  be  charged 
approximately  $45  a  month  lor  Ihe 
rental  ot  phone  lines  to  the  dow- 
ntown control  center 

Vandalism  costs  are  surprisingly 
high  In  1972.  $15,150  was  required 
to  replace  broken  glass,  $4,730  to 
repair  buildings  and  $22,035  worth 
ot  equipment  was  stolen  or  van- 
dalized. These  figures  are  for  dam- 
age done  during  non-school  hours. 
A  100  per  cent  increase  in  vandal- 
ism during  school  hours  was 
reported  (or  1972  Costs  totaled 
$6,255  lo  repair  equipment  and 
S9,500  lo  replace  damaged  equip- 
ment. 


Schools  deter  vandals 

Vandalism  also  hit  thanewly  built 
schools  before  they  were  com- 
pleted Between  $10,000  and 
$20,000  damage  was  done  to 
schools  while  under  construction. 

H  plans  go  on  schedule,  the  elec- 
Ironic  surveillance  equipmeni 
should  be  installed  in  the  56 
schools  by  the  end  of  August 

With  the  new  equipment,  Ihe  Fort 
Wayne  Community  Schools  should 
suffer  a  smaller  loss  in  repairs  and 
replacements  Though  the  installa- 
tions are  cosily,  they  will  deter  pros- 
pective vandals  and  the  schools  will 
probably  have  conquered  a  large 
pari  of  Itieir  loss.

Movie  offers  boredom 


by  Karen  Yager 

Rated  "R"  for  raunchy.  Up 
The  Sandbox  is  a  film  about 
a  one-time  college  intel- 
,lectual  who  married  at  a 
young  age  and  is  enveloped 
by  the  humdrum  life  of  a 
housewife. 

Margaret,  played  by  Barbara 

Streisand,  linds  herself  untullfilled 
)ust  being  a  wife,  mother,  cook,  dis- 
hwasher and  nurse  to  her  husband 
and  two  children,  as  she  experi- 
ences the  life  of  a  typical  woman 

Parts  of  the  script  that  reveal  this 
feeling  are  during  her  visits  to  the 
part  to  gossip  over  children, 
become  jealous  when  she  meets 
her  tiusband's  lemale  co-worker 
and  trying  lo  cope  al  a  boring  party 
where  her  husband  ignores  her  as 
he  mingles  with  what  he  believes 
to  be  fascinating  people. 

Wiie  indulges  in  imiiasies 

being  ground  dOwi..oay  after  day 
by  this  life,  Margaret  linds  she  must 
indulge  in  tieroic  laniasies  in  order 
losurvive  She  finds  hersell  accept- 
ing her  husband's  affair  with  his  co- 
worker because  Margaret  believes 
her  husband  worships  her  As  a 
magazine  writer,  she  attends  a 
women  s  liberation  meeting  and 


confronts  this  Castro-like  leader 
and  when  she  later  interviews  him. 
she  linds  out  his  bizarre  secret 

At  a  party  f^largaret  overhears  a 
man  talking  about  an  African  tribe 
that  has  the  secret  of  painless  chil- 
dbirth Because  she  doesn't  want 
her  husband  lo  know  she  is  pre- 
gnant, she  fantasizes  with  horror 
that  her  belly  has  blown  up  and  she 
looks  9  months  pregnant.  She  then 
explores  Alrica  as  an  assistant  to 
an  anihropoligist  who  is  seeking 
the  tribe  with  the  secret  of  painless 
childbirth  and  her  adventure  ends 
when  she  is  thrown  in  a  pit  by  the 
women  warriors  and  stabbed 

Margaret  fantasizes  fight 

The  most  hilarious  sequence  of 
the  movie  is  al  a  family  get-together 
during  her  molher's  campaign  to 
gel  Margaret  to  move  lo  a  nearby 
suburban  area  This  part  is  effec- 
tively filmed  as  if  it  is  a  home  movie. 
Margaret  fantasizes  that  her  mother 
tries  lo  pressure  her  mlo  saying  she 
will  move  and  she  and  her  mother 
try  lo  strangle  each  other  after  she 

sticks  her  mother  s  head  in  the 
anniversary  cake. 

Margaret's  last  fantasy  is  about 
having  an  abortion  This  proves  to 
be  Ihe  wierdest  part  as  Margaret 
finds  herself  in  a  clinic  where  these 
warrior-type  nurses  drag  ofl  her 


'husband  and  she  then  goes 
through  the  part  on  an  operating 
table  where  she  finally  ends  up  in 
a  sandbox. 

After  Ihis  fantasy  she  tells  her 
pleased  husband  thai  she  is  pre- 
gnant and  Ihe  story  ends  as  she 
happily  accepts  her  fate 
Streisand  shows  talent 

Up  the  Sandbox  is  such  a  sad 
example  ol  a  comedy  that  the  audi- 
ence can  t  wait  lor  tl  lo  end.  Except 
lor  the  marvelously  lunny  talent  of 
Barbara  Streisand  who  pulled  the 
characterization  through,  the 
movie  was  a  flop.         


Set  in  Louisianna  during  the 
depression,  the  story  is  based  upon 
a  sharecropping  family  who  some- 
limes  finds  it  difficult  to  tiave  a 
decent  meal  The  Morgans  are  con- 
tinually lorced  to  work  under 
unreasonable  conditions  to  survive 

The  head  of  the  family  was 

arredted  lor  stealing  meat  and  was 
sentenced  lo  two  years  at  hard 
labor  The  coldness  of  the  law  offi- 
cals  lo  Ihe  pleas  ot  the  deserted 
family  expressed  the  hardships 
many  poor,  black  tamides  suffered 
during  the  days  of  extreme  pre- 
judice and  bigotry 
Boy  Misses  Friends 

A  pel  dog  was  named  Sounder 
and  was  the  closet  friend  of  trie  old- 
est son  alter  his  father  was  taken 
to  prison  While  the  *  g  was  trying 
lo  protect  his  master  from  the 
sheriff  and  his  deputies.  Sounder 
was  shol  mercilessly  by  a  deputy 
The  boy's  longing  for  his  father  and 
his  dog  was  superbly  acted  by 
Kenin  Hooks.  He  did  a  superior  job 
in  appealing  to  the  emotions  ol  his 
audience 

A  scene  which  hit  home  with  Ihe 
recent  racial  disiurbances  in  Fort 
Wayne  was  when  the  young  boy 
unexpederly  visiied  an  all  black 


school  house.  He  was  permitted  to 

speak  openly  dna  the  learning 
experience  was  something  new  lo 
him.  His  schooling  at  home  was  in 
a  white  school  where  he  was  forced 
to  sit  in  the  rear  of  the  classroom 
with  a  few  of  his  other  black  clas- 
smates. 

Cicly  Tyson  created  a  character 
who  would  not  permit  herself  to  te 
stopped  by  while  bigots  and  their 
atrocious  rules.  She  was  deter- 
mined lo  keep  their  farm  and  did 
so  with  Ihe  help  of  three  small  chil- 
dren. 


Movie  Relays  Message 

Though  many  movies  today  are 
based  solely  on  unrealistic  idej^. 
Sounder  definitely  relays  a  mean- 
ingful message  The  cast  ability  lo 
relate  lo  one  another  in  many  lense 
situations  makes  lor  a  good  slory 
and  tine  entertainment. 

Parts  ol  Ihe  movie  are  lengthy 
and  Ihe  end  sometimes  seems  to 
be  near  only  to  introduce  Ihe  audi- 
ence lo  another  scene  However,  it 
IS  a  departure  from  "  Black  Explola- 
tion  "  movies  and  an  enjoyable 
show  lor  everyone-white,  black,  yel- 
low, red  or  brown!

Drug  shows  dangerous 
rise  among  teenagers 


by  Janet  Bell 

As  the  counlty  and  limes  have 
changed  Oraslically  in  the  70  s,  so 
have  many  aspects  o(  the  drug 
scene.  The  counter-cultufe  has 
gone  from  Ihe  mysticism  o(  Timothy 
Leary  and  the  psychedelic  scene, 
to  ihe  speed  and  heroin  era  and  is 
still  much  involved  in  the  marijuana 
dispute 

A  new  drug  has  recently  entered 
the  dope  world  and  has  increased 
in  use  greatly  during  Ihe  past  few 
Vears.  The  name  ot  Ihis  drug  is 
melhaqualone 

The  two  mosi  common  lypes  ol 
this  drug  sold  m  Ihe  United  Slates 
are  straight  methaqualone.  Soper 
and  Ouaaiude  Sopor  is  sold  m  tab- 
lets imprinted  with  a  bold  A  above

to  the  number  ol  milligrams  con- 
tained in  it  Quaalude  comes  in  150 
mg  and  300  mg  tablets,  both  white 
The  smaller  is  labeled  WHR  and  the 
larger  RORER 

Methaqualone  is  classed  as  a 
central  nervous  system  depres- 
sant, a  sedative-hypnotic.  It  is  pre- 
scribed to  be  used  as  a  sedative 
and  a  sleeping  pill.

The  emcee  stepped  to  the 
microphone  antd  announced 
to  an  anxious  audience  that 
he  was  proudly  presenting 
"The  Leon  Russell  Spring 
Tour",  and  the  partially  filled 
auditorium  roared  with 
applause. 

He  then  instructed  that  lo  start 
oft  the  show,  everyone  present  light 
a  match  and  hold  it  up  As  the  col- 
iseum lit  up.  the  tiny  glows  ol  light 
produced  a  birthday  cake  effect 
revealing  a  thousand  candles 

The  warm-up  group,  going  by  the 
name,  New  Grass  Revival,  con- 
sisted ol  five  genis  They  played 
only  stringed  instruments  and  pro- 
duced a  sound  somewhat  resemb- 
ling Seals*  Crofls.  Halfway  through 
their  set.  the  violinist  let  loose  with 
a  complicated  solo  entitled  the 
"Orange  Blossom  Boogie  ' 
Emcee  apologizes 

Ending  their  portion  of  the  show, 
the  emcee  again  stepped  to  the 
mike  lo  apologize  lor  the  late  start 
and  introduced  Reverand  and  his 
Gospel  Singers  The  Rev  pranced 
out  dressed  in  black  wearing  a 
jeweled  vest  that  reflected  in  the 
lights. 

Resembling  Sly  Stone,  airo  and 
all,  he  sat  down  to  the  piano  and 
pounded  out  some  good  piano 
boogie  along  with  tunes  about 
heaven.  The  male  group  members 
played  the  drums  and  guitar  while 
(our  black  women  provided  the 
backing  vocals 

They  were  mio  their  third  number 
when  Leon  Russell  walked  nonch- 
alently  onto  the  stage.  The  Fort 
Wayne  crowd  went  wild  as  he 
strode  across  the  stage  acting  as 
director  for  the  band  Russell  wore 
leans  and  a  matching  jacket  com- 


plete with  an  American  tiag  patch 
displayed  on  dienerre. 
Russell  wears  hat 

His  blue  eyes  dazzled  in  Ihe  lights 
as  he  stroked  his  aray  beard  and 
a  top  hal,  sin  :  .  l.ieone  he  tradi- 
tionally wear  «ds  thrown  to  him 
from  the  audi   .ice. 

He  planted  himself  at  a  piano 
opposite  the  Reverand  and  began 
to  play.  The  no-smoking  rule  was 
disregarded  throughout  the  enliie 
concert.  The  police  made  no 
attempt  to  bust  anyone  but  stood 
disgustedly  at  their  posts  all  even- 
ing. 

Another  ol  Ihe  cas!  of  characters 
on  stage  was  a  tall  black  dude  in 
elevator  shoes  who  seemed  to  lead 
the  tour  vocalists  in  occasional 
choregraphy  routines. 
Performer  walks  "tightrope" 

Russell  roared  into  his  bit  single 
"Tightrope  as  Ihe  dude  assisted 
using  a  broom  tor  balance  while 
walking  on  an  imaginary  tightrope 
Fort  Wayne  boogiers  stormed  the 


stage  against  police  restraint.  The 
crowd  Ihumped  lo  the  incredible 
piano  music  played  by  the  Rev  and 
Russell  while  Ihe  peculiar  smelling 
haze  thickened  near  the  stage 

The  show  went  smoothly  with  no 
interruptions  until  Leon  burst  inio 
a  song  that  brought  a  fan  up 
onstage  for  some  frenzied  danoing. 
A  stage  hand  tried  to  push  him  eas- 
ily off  the  stage  bul  he  wouldn't  go 
Russell,  perhaps  feeling  compeli- 
tion  leaped  with  his  guitar  on  lop 
of  his  piano  and  began  playing. 

The  gray-haired  idol,  now  back 
on  his  bench  and  surrounded  with 
rhythmic  applause,  pounded  out 
his  famed  version  of  "Jumpin'  Jack 
Flash  "  It  contained  some  raspy 
sing-song  advice  in  the  middle, 
which  eventually  led  back  to  the 
song  as  the  tall  black  dude  danced 
and  leaped  across  the  stage  in  a 
Jack  Flash  ^tyle. 
Russell  Introduced  Adoline 

During  another  number,  Leon 


ssell  introduced  'S' 
Adoline  ",  who,  weighing  300 
pounds,  bumped  out  on  ihe  stage 
dressed  in  cowgirl  (ashion  She 
planted  a  big  kiss  on  his  cheek  to 
the  amazement  of  the  crowd  and 
waved  as  she  swayed  off  stage 

The  last  rocking  number  ended 
and  Ihe  exhausted  group  left  the 
stage.  The  crowd  wanted  more  and 
pursued  with  rhythmic  stomping 
and  chants.  Asa  match  was  lit  back 
stage  the  audience  followed  suit 
and  soon  produced  thousands  o( 
lights,  repeating  the  giant  birthday 
cakescene.Thegroup  came  out  lor

unhibiled  and  generous  The 
threshold  of  pam  is  high  while 
under  the  influence  of 
methaqualone  ?nd  coordination  of 
muscles  is  hard  so  the  term  ol  "wal- 
Ibanger'  has  been  applied  to  many 
methaqualone  users. 

A  wallbangers  speech  wilt  be 
slurred  Their  eyes  may  |ump  back 
and  lorth  in  their  sockets,  but  this 
won  t  matter  to  many  users.  People 
who  have  taken  enough 
methaqualone  can  fall  down  flights 
of  stairs  and  not  feel  the  bruises 
until  the  next  day 

On  higher  doses,  the  effects  are 
more  pronounced.  Coordination 
becomes  very  diHicult  because  of 
Ihe  occurence  of  muscular  tre- 
mors, which,  It  has  been  sus- 
pected, are  actually  symptoms  of 
partial  anathesia  of  the  muscles. 

An  acute  dose  of  2  4  grams  can 
result  in  a  coma  and  convulsions. 
Deaih  has  followed  a  dose  of  as  low 
as  8  grams  A  higher  dose  than  the 
sleeping  dose  can  depress  tracheo- 
bronchial reflexes  to  a  point  that  if 
you  were  lo  vomit  in  your  sleep,  you 
could  choke  lo  death 

Melhaqualone  has  a  bizzare 
origin.  In  the  beginning,  II  was 
used  as  an  antl-malarla  drijg  and 
widely  distributed  In  Alrica,  Its 
sedative  qualities  were  first 
noticed  in  1955  when  It  was  first 
pul  on  the  market  In  Germany. 

Sopor  IS  more  widely  used  in  the 
(\1idwesl  than  Ouaaiude  because 
Sopor  is  manufactured  in  Detroit. 
St  Louis  and  Chicago,  f^lany 
"scrip"  doctors  are  now  signing 
prescriptions  to  huge  amounts  of 
Ihe  drug 

Methaqualone,  whether  it  be 
Sopor  or  Ouaaiude  is  simply  a  gar- 
bage drug.  It  has  all  Ihe  possible 
disadvantages  a  drug  can  have,  a 
drug  of  real  abuse

before  a  preseason  practice  by  playing  catch.  This  year's  baseball

Faculty  holds  off  "LYV" 
in  AFS  charity  game 

by  Yvonne  Getz 

The  Elmhurst  faculty  was  victorious  Friday  night  as  they  battled 
and  defeated  the  WLYV  Jumping  Jocks  62-52. 

Both  teams  were  sure  of  victories,  Elmhurst  player.  Jim  Welborn, 
commented,  "Those  guys  look  like  a  bunch  of  mealy  mouthed 
"II  seems  he  had  no  qualms  about  the  game  and  who  would 
win.  As  the  "LYV"  guys  were  interviewed  they  said,  "It  will  be 
an  easy  win  for  us.  They  don't  look  like  their  much  in  shape  for 
anything," 

The  lirst  quarter  began  with  the  WLYV  Jumping  Jocks  leading  2-0.  The 
Trojan  faculty  kepi  close  behind  but  the  "Lyv  Guys"  luck  held  out  as 
they  ended  the  quarter,  slill  in  the  lead  by  12-10. 
Teacher  encourages  faculty 

The  Trojans,  however,  weren't  beaten  yet  and  with  the  encouragement 
and  coaching  ol  Miss  Ural  Edwards,  they  brought  the  score  up  and  over- 
took the  disc  jocks  15-12  as  two  minutes  passed  in  the  second  quarter 

Throughout  the  rest  of  the  game  the  Elmhurst  (acuity  conlmued  to 
lead  except  lor  one  interval  when  the  Jumping  Jocks  pulled  the  score 
up  to  33  all.  Just  as  quickly,  playei  Joe  Miller  hit  a  long  shot  breaking 
the  tie  and  putting  Elmhurst  in  the  lead  again  As  the  game  came  to 
an  end,  Elmhurst.  in  the  lead  by  ten  pomts,  had  their  (irsl  and  last  victory 
ol  the  season. 

Players  on  the  Elmhurst  team  were  many  outstanding  members  of  the 
faculty  including  Kenny  Eyicheson  and  John  Bunnell  leading  the  Elmhurst 
laculty  to  a  victory.  Also  a  lew  new  additions  lo  the  game  were  student 
teachers 
Faculty  leads  cheers 

Rve  cheerleaders  from  the  laculty  were  chosen,  dressed  in  red  and 
while  baseball  uniforms.  They  performed  cheers  throughout  the  game 
and  a  few  cartwheels  also  When  asked  how  they  fell  about  Ihe  faculty 
leading  at  halHime  with  a  score  ol  27-26.  they  answered  with  expressions 
of  "Wow"  and  "Magnifico,"

Ball  team  begins  season 


by  Tom  Jarjour 

With  a  squad  composed  ol  as  many  sophomores  as 
juniors  and  seniors  combined,  the  1973  edition  of  the 
Elmhurst  baseball  team  will  attempt  to  better  their 
school  record  of  eleven  wins  ol  last  year 

There  are  but  lour  seniors  and  nine  luniors  on  this 
year's  squad  to  go  with  an  unprecendenled  fourteen 
sophomores.  The  live  letfermen  who  are  relurmng  to 
play  this  year  are  seniors  Dave  Butler  and  Jefl  Hibler 
and  juniors  Bernie  Kampschmidt,  Eric  Russell  and  Ken 
Butler 

One  of  the  main  concerns  for  Ihe  1973  campaign 
is  to  develop  a  pitching  staff  that  is  without  a  single 
senior.  Without  the  services  ol  previous  pitchers  Mike 
Brown  and  Dan  Lobdeil,  the  big  burden  will  fall  on 
the  talented  left  arm  of  Kampschmidt  The  progress 
of  Bernie  tied  the  sctiool  record  lor  wins  in  a  season 
lor  theteamasa  whole.  His  fine  record  of  26  sir  il^eouts 
in  30  innings  should  improve  this  year. 

Competing  tor  the  other  spots  on  the  piiching  staft 
are  luniors  Kirk  Williams.  Randy  Collins,  Dennis  Geisle- 
man  and  Phil  Herchberger  Other  prospects  are  sopho- 
mores Lynn  Brown,  Lyie  Howard,  and  Dave  Campbell 

Al  ttie  other  end  ol  the  battery,  the  catching  chores 
will  be  held  down  by  lellerman  Ken  Butler.  Coming 
off  a  fine  sophomore  season  and  sieadily  improving, 
Butler  will  be  tough  to  beat  oui.  His  back  up  man  will 
be  sophomore  Mark  Felger 

One  of  the  strong  points  of  this  year's  learn  is  the 
outfield.  Solidly  holding  down  the  three  posts  are 
returning  lettermen  Hibler.  Toam  and  Russell.  They 
not  only  make  a  fine  defense  outfield  but  also  a  for- 
midable threat  on  the  basepaths. 

Ready  to  take  over  if  they  falter,  however,  are 


seniois  John  Adams  LyIe  Howard  and  Lynn  Brown. 

The  infield  this  year  is  filled  to  the  brim  with  talented 
prospects.  The  only  two  positions  which  seem  fairly 
set  are  Dave  Butler  at  third  base  and  junior  Greg 
Marden  at  second.  Letterman  Butler  is  making  the 
switch  to  third  from  the  shortstiop  position  he 
occupied  last  year.  This  leaves  shortstop  totally  up 
lor  grabs.  The  position  of  first  base  will  be  occupied 
by  pitchers  Williams  and  Kampschmidt. 

Battling  lor  the  remaining  spots  in  the  Infield  will 
be  Herstiberger  and  soptiomores  Mike  Landrigan, 
Les  Sorgen,  Ed  Howard  and  Dave  Campbell. 

With  Mike  Brown  and  Steve  Isenbarger  graduated, 
the  mam  burden  ol  hitting  attack  wilt  tall  on  Jell  Hibler's 
should  Hibler,  who  hit  safely  in  his  first  fen  games 
as  a  junior  to  set  an  Elmhurst  school  record,  will  have 
to  come  Ihrougti  with  his  bal  lo  compliment  the  base 
swiping  abilities  of  all  Ihe  outfielders.  Another  outliel- 
der  to  rely  on  is  Eric  Russell  who  hit  a  sparkling  ,300 
as  a  sophomore  Greg  Toam,  the  other  starting  outfiel- 
der, will  also  be  heavily  relied  upon.  He  had  a  memor- 
able junior  year  as  he  set  school  records  in  four  offen- 
sive departments 

A  big  concern  this  year  will  be  the  all-around  defense 
of  Ihe  team  The  outfield  is  in  good  shap^and  Ihe 
Butler  brothers  are  holding  down  the  third  base  and 
catcher  position  But  outside  these  lettermen,  only 
enperiencecan  tell  us  how  Ihe  other  positions  will  tare. 

To  sum  it  up,  Ihe  Trojans  will  have  to  overcome 
their  inexperience  with  their  talent  to  produce  a 
winner  in  1973.  Even  if  it  isn't  a  memorable  year,  you 
can't  help  but  to  look  toward  Ihe  near  future  when 
some  ol  Ihe  underclassmen  mature  Into  fine 
ballplayers.

Learns  procedures 

Junior  to  attend  Boys'  State 


Junior  Bill  Watson  has  been 
chosen  as  Elmhurst's  representa- 
tive to  Hoosier  Boys'  State,  Den- 
nis Geisleman  has  been  selected 
as  alternate. 

Ten  juniors  were  nominated 
and  were  selected  by  the  process 
of  elimination.  The  junior  boys 
wrote  essays  and  qualifications 
necessary  were  citizenship, 
scholarship,  essay  and  recogni- 
tion. Mr.  Douglas  Spencer,  gui- 
dance counselor.  Mr,  Robert 
Miller,  assistant  principal  and  Mr, 
Robert  Passwater,  teacher- 
counselor  selected  Bill  and  Den- 
nis for  the  honors. 

Boys'  State  will  provide  a  better 
insight  to  political  procedures 
and  functions,  A  miniature  nation, 


the  boys  will  be  assigned  to  either 
the  Federalist  party  or  the 
Nationalist  party.  This  Is  done  for 
election  purposes, 

"I'm  interested  in  law  and  the 
experience  will  help  me  with  my 
future  plans,"  Bill  explained,  "We 
should  become  better  informed 
about  our  government  during  that 
week  than  sitting  in  an  uneventful 
class." 

Professors  and  high  school 
teachers  will  conduct  the  classes 
and  projects.  The  Indiana  State 
University  campus  is  the  site  in 
which  the  boys  will  stay.  Bill  will 
be  participating  in  the  program 
June  9  through  June  16,  "Its  a 
rewarding  experience  for  all  of 
the  entrees  and  it  sets  the  boys 


up  for  the  future.  '  Mr,  Passwater 
stated. 

Both  the  Bikethon  and  the  Walk 
for  Development  are  currently

strike  creates  turmoil 


■The  difficulty  with  offering 
rigid  price  controls  on  meat 
prices  and  food  prices  is  that  it 
would  not  stop  the  rise  in 

prices.  It  might  stop  things 
momentarily,  but  as  a  result  of 
discouraging  increased  produc- 
tion we  would  reap  the  consequ- 
ences of  greater  upward  pres- 
sures on  prices  later.  ' 

Two  weeks  after  this  comment, 
President  Nixon  froze  the  prices 
on  beef,  pork  and  lamb,  Boycot- 
ters  are  claiming  partial  credit  for 
Mr,  Nixon's  decision. 

Recent  boycotting  put  the 
United  States  in  turmoil.  Two  Mid- 
west packing  plants  were  closed 
for  lack  of  demand.  The  San  Fran- 
cisco division  of  Safeway  Stores 
laid  off  83  ot  their  350  employers 


at  a  plant  in  Richmond.  Calif. 
Costs  grow  steadily 

Consumers  have  reason  to 
object  to  recent  prices.  The  cost 
to  feed  an  average  family 
increased  $109  last  year.  The 
figures  increased  $71  in  just  the 
months  of  January  and  February. 
An  example  of  these  price 
increases  is  hamburger  An  extra 
22  cents  a  pound  was  added  in 
Detroit  while  other  prices  ranged 
from  4  cents  to  22  cents 
increases. 

Farmers  are  currently  enjoying 
an  increase  in  their  annual 
income.  They  attribute  this 
increase  to  soaring  prices  which 
are  beyond  their  control.  These 
prices,  they  believe,  result  largely 
from  an  unusually  high  demand. 


Though  their  incomes  are  grow- 
ing, they  are  still  below  the 
national  average. 
Freeze  comes  late 

Consumers  believe  the  freeze 
came  too  late  because  of  the  cur- 
rent high  prices.  Some  industry 
executives  believe  the  freeze 
came  too  soon  and  label  the 
freeze  as  unfair '  According  to 
Newsweek,  the  decision  of  the 
President  was  a  political  move. 
According  to  White  House  aides, 
there  will  be  an  expected  big  jump 
in  supplies  this  summer  which 
would  lower  the  prices  and  make 
the  housewives  content.  If  this 
does  happen,  Nixon  will  probably 
receive  much  of  the  credit. 

However,  much  contradiction 
has  been  exposed  as  Agriculture 


Secretary  Earl  Butz  said  only  'a 
damn  fool"  would  want  a  ceiling 
on  prices.  The  Cost  of  Living 
Council  convinced  the  President 
that  something  must  be  done  to 
the  rising  costs  of  food.  Nixon 
made  his  decision  soon  after  he 
was  informed  who  was  responsi- 
ble for  the  higher  prices.  One 
White  House  source  said,  "We  put 
the  blame  right  on  the  farmer." 
Meany  demands  control 

George  Meany,  president  of  the 
AFL-CIO,  said  wage  earners 
would  not  settle  for  any  wage 
increase  which  would  not  cover 
his  increased  food  bill  He 
demanded  direct  controls  on  the 
prices  of  all  agricultural  products 
from  the  farm  to  the  market 

If  Nixon's  plans  fail,  and  the 
supply  of  goods  hasn't  increased 
by  this  summer,  it  might  result  in 
black  markets,  high  wage  settle- 
ments and  continuing  inflation. 
Hopefully,  his  current  plan  will  be 
more  successful  than  Phase  I  or 
Phase  II 


IVIovie  focuses  on  gap 


'Women  libbers'  cast 
into  stereotype  roles 


Thefeminist  movement  has  been  blown  up  to  be  a  radical 
revolution  for  the  advancement  of  women.  All  women  lib- 
bers are  supposedly  bra  burners,  hate  the  thought  of  being 
a  mother  and  want  to  work  a  40  hour  a  week  job  with 
at  least  a  $20,000  annual  income. 

However,  the  majority  of  women  who  advocate  equal 
rights  are  political  moderates,  according  to  the  results  of 
a  questionnaire  in  Redbook  magazine.  The  majority  of  the 
120,000  women  who  completed  the  100  question  form 
believe  women  are  forced  to  be  second  class  citizens. 

In  1969. 95  per  cent  of  the  working  women  earned  $3,500 
less  than  men  with  comparable  positions.  Women  have 
been  conditioned  to  be  emotional,  weak,  fragile  and  below 
man. 

Society  has  created  a  mold  in  which  men  must  fit  into, 
likewise  for  women.  However,  women  are  presently  recog- 
nizing this  trend  and  are  working  to  correct  it. 

The  current  move  has  altered  the  thinking  of  many 
women.  The  majority  are  not  radicals,  they  just  desire  equal 
rights.  Women  sometimes  must  complete  two  roles  One 
is  that  of  a  mother  and  the  other  of  a  career  woman.  Both 
jobs  are  time  consuming  and  requires  held  from  her  chil- 
dren and  husband.  Hopefully,  the  cliche  "a  woman's  place 
is  in  the  home"  will  soon  fade  away. 

A  woman  libber  isn't  always  a  Gloria  Steinum  groupie 
bi^t  she  usually  is  aware  of  her  position  and  is  willing 
to  stand  up  for  her  rights.

Ethos 

by  Bill  Watson 

As  a  movie  just  released 
in  the  early  seventies,  "Joe" 
projects  a  complete  view  of 
the  hostile  feelings  between 
youth  and  parents.  The  story 
is  unbiased  toward  both 
camps  in  their  portrayal  of 
the  war  between  the  genera- 
tions. 

Beginning  drearily,  the  movie 
revolves  around  two  youth  living 
together  in  a  rundown  apartment 
house.  Both  use  drugs  as  a  means 
of  escape.  The  male  partner  pushes 
his  girllnend  deeper  and  deeper 
into  the  drug  culture.  Finally  she's 
lorced  to  return  to  her  parents'  lav- 
ish lile.  Her  lather  returns  to  her 
boyfriend  s  home  to  remove  her 
belongings  and  accidentally  kills 
him. 

Still  in  shock  from  the  experi- 
ence, the  father  stumbles  into  a  bar 
and  discovers  a  new  friend.  Joe, 
who  consoles  him  only  because  he 
hates  youth.  Joe,  pictured  as  a  clas- 
sic neo-patriot.  regards  the  murder 
as  being  heroic  The  father  quickly 
becomes  a  fnend  of  Joes  even 
though  they  are  from  entirely  differ- 
ent envifonmenl. 
Joe  dreams  ot  destruction 

Joe  constantly  dreams  of  trying 
to  destroy  the  "subversive'  youth 
cult.  Slowly  the  father  begins  to 
agree  wilh  Joe's  opinions. 

Eventually  the  daughter.  Melissa, 
discovers  her  boyfriend's  murderer 
and  leaves  home  to  return  to  her 
former  friends. 

Joe  and  the  father  search  for  his 
daughter  by  befriending  "freaks"  to 
find  Melissa.  While  searching,  their 
wallets  are  stolen  and  both  men  are 
sidetracked  into  finding  the  thieves- 
Joe  stalks  thieves 

The  movie  |umps  to  a  commune 
with  Joe  and  his  friends  stalking  the 
thieves.  Both  armed  with  rifles,  thev 


demand  their  wallets.  Joe  begins 
shooting  the  freaks  out  of  insanity 
and  soon  realized  all  must  die.  This 
marks  the  beginning  of  a  mass  mur- 
der. The  final  victim  to  fall  turns  out 
to  be  Melissa,  shot  by  her  own 
father  accidentlv. 


Perhaps  a  Utile  melodramatic  but 
well  done,  the  movie  is  interesting 
for  everyone.  The  vulgar  language 
does  lend  to  bend  your  ears,  but 
it  is  an  asset  to  the  movie.  The  plol 
is  over  simplified  but  still  holds  the 
viewers  interest. 


Watergate  conspiracy 
involves  high  officials 


Last  June,  seven  men 
were  arrested  while  in  the 
process  of  bugging  and  bur- 
glarizing  the  Democratic 
headquarters  in  Washing- 
ton, D,C,  For  almost  a  year, 
the  Nixon  administration 
has  been  living  under  a  dark 
cloud  because  of  it.  At  first. 
no  one  suspected  the  White 
House  of  being  behind  the 
burglary.  Now,  the  true  story 
is  coming  out  and  piecing 
together.  The  Nixon 
administration  is  looking 
guiltier  than  the  public  ever 
imagined  in  the  Watergate 
incident. 

The  seven  men  were  to  be  sen- 
tenced last  week.  Judge  John  Sinca 
handed  a  stiff  20  year  sentences 
and  fines  to  6  of  the  men  The 
seventh  was  not  sentenced 
becauseTie  decided  to  ten  the  court 
the  true  story  they  wanted  to  hear 
James  W  McCord,  Jr.,  an  ex-ClA 
operative,  told  the  Judge  at  the  trial 
that  there  had  been  'political  pres- 
sure' on  the  seven  to  p^ead  guilty 
and"cla~m  up;  that  some  of  the  trial 
testimony  was  perjured  and  most 
tantalizing  of  all    'others  "  were 


involved  in  the  Watergate  opera- 
tion,   but    they   had   escaped 
unnamed. 
Others  Include  statlers 

The  "others"  who  were  involved 
could  include  such  well  known 
named  as  John  Mitchell,  (the  pres- 
ident's former  attorney  General  and 
campaign  manager)  and  White 
House  staffers  Dwight  Chapin  and 
Charles  W  Colson  (who  had  con- 
nections with  the  campaign- 
underground.)  White  House  chiel  of 
staff,  H.  R.  Haldeman,  campaign- 
fund-raiser-in-chief,  Maurice  Stans: 
and  Jeb.  Magruder  a  campaign  offi- 
cial could  also  be  involved. 

A  scandal  has  hit  the  high  office 
once  before  like  this  when  Presi- 
dent Warren  Harding  asked  Secret- . 
ary  of  Commerce  Herbert  Hoover 
early  on  how  lo  handle  the  scandal 
known  as  the  Teapot  Dome.  Hoover 
replied,  "Publish  it  and  at  least  get 
credit  for  mtegrity  on  your  side." 

Maroing  instead  sat  on  the  news 
and  the  result  was  an  enduring  stain 
on  the  reputation  of  his  Presidency 
and  his  party. 

The  whole  story  is  yet  to  be  heard. 
President  Nixon  said  of  the  Water- 
gate Affair,  "I  have  nothing  to  hide 
I  have  nothing  to  hide.  I  repeal  that 
1  have  nothing  to  hide,"  If  this  is 
the  case.  Nixon  owes  it  to  himsell 
and  his  government  to  try  to  clean 
thinos  UD

Alice    Cooper    tours 
present   bizzare    show 


by  Karen  Yagar 

The  word  "crazy"  can'l  begin  to 
describe  the  rock  extravaganza 
brought  to  the  Memorial  Coliseum 
by  Alice  Cooper  and  his  band  of 
"Billion  Dollar  Babies"  on  their 
1973  soring  tour. 

"Hello!  Hurray!"  greeted  Alice  to 
(he  crowd  as  the  spotlight  revealed 
him  clad  in  leopard  boots,  holy 
underwear,  and  a  white  tuxedo  jac- 
ket. He  then  swung  into  "Billion 
Dollar  Baby",  the  title  song  from  his 
latest  album  for  Warner  Bros 
Records.  The  stage  was  set  with  two 
golden  figures  reflecting  into  the 
crowd  above  "Hollywood  Square" 
type  boxes-  Above  the  boxes,  con- 
taining the  guitarists,  red  stars  lit 
up  as  blue  and  white  lights  over- 
shadowed Alice  while  he  played  to 
be  "Elected." 

"I'm  Eighteen"  proclaimed  Alice, 
as  he  rolled  around  on  the  stage 
and  his  jumpin'  jack  bass  player 
glided  around  the  set.  None  of 
Alice's  shows  would  be  complete 
without  the  appearance  of  his  boa 
constrictor.  Screams  of  delight 
were  heard  as  Alrce  fondled  his  lov- 
ing pet. 

Lights  represent  rfrlll 

Alice  entered  to  battle  the  evils 
of  tooth  decay  tor  the  aflection  of 
the  fair  maide.T  Happy  Tooth  Spira- 
ling  lights  begin  this  segment  rep- 
resenting a  drill  and  then  Alice, 
toothbrush  and  toothpaste  in  hand, 
gels  on  the  giant  tooth  for  the  big 
light  as  he  sings  "No  More  Mr.  Nice 
Guy."  This  is  the  song  he 
introduced  on  WLYV  radio  prjor  to 
his  performance  and  predicted  it 
would  be  number  one  in  the  nation 
within  two  weeks. 

Plashing  stairs,  strobes  and  the 
bright  flowing  of  flickering  tights  on 
ar  arch  brought  on  the  melodic 
piano  roll  introducing  "My  Stars." 
The  thrilled  crowd  was  still  breath- 
less as  Cooper  began  the  violent 
part  of  his  show.  Alice  decided  to 
blow  the  audience's  minds  bv  cutt- 


ing ot)  his  head  on  a  guillotine  as 
he  sano  "I  Love  the  Dead." 

His  head  was  paraded  around  by 
the  executioner  and  his  body  was 
laid  among  parts  of  other  bodies  on 
the  stage.  Alice  reappeared  in  full 
only  to  play  around  with  these  limbs 
and  heads  until  he  took  his  long 
sword  and  stabbed  a  baby 
Grotesquely  swinging  the  baby  over 
his  head,  he  bellowed  out  'Dead 
Babies.  ' 

The  audience  got  into  the  act 
when  the  middle  of  the  popular 
"School's  Out"  Cooper  threw  post- 
ers to  his  wild  fans  who  clawed  to 
get  a  souvenir.  Feeling  in  a  sensu- 
ous mood,  he  then  begged  the 
crowd  to  say  the  filthiest  thing  they 
could  think  of  After  various 
obscenities  were  yelled,  Alice  set- 
tled for  the  answer  "Nixon"  from 
one  o(  the  bopping  freaks  in  the 
front  row.  He  and  his  group  then 
strutted  off  stage  only  to  be  brought 
back  by  the  thundering  and  lights 
ot  the  fans 

Alice  receives  kina 

For  his  encore,  Alice  Cooper 
played  "Under  My  Wheels.  "Still  not 
completely  satisfied,  Alice  decided 
he  wanted  a  kiss  Irom  a  fifteen- 
year-old  fan,  of  which  he  received 
whole  heartedly  What  could  any- 
one say  as  Kale  Smith's  sweet  sop- 
rano rang  'God  Bless  America" 
through  the  Coliseum  as  Alice  and 
his  "babies"  saluted  Old  Glory, 
sparklers  in  hand?  11  was  the 
wierdly  spectacular  ending  ol  a  fan- 
tastic performance 

Alices  spring  tour  began  in  New 
York  on  March  15  and  will  wrap  up 
June  3  at  Madison  SquareGarden, 
Cooper  is  taking  rhe  show  to  56 
cittes  and  will  play  before  more  than 
800,000  people  who  will  pay  nearly 
$5  million  to  see  the  performance 
The  tour  has  been  calculated  by 
"Billboard  Magazine"  to  be  the 
biggest-grossing  ever  undertaken 
by  a  pop  group.

Golfers  show  promise 


by  Mike  Arnold 

During  spring  vacation  while  most  stu- 
dents were  sleeping  late  or  basking  in  the 
sun  in  warmer  climates,  there  were  eight 
people  from  our  school  who  were  actually 
playing  golf  at  10  o'clock  in  the  morning- 
Even  though  the  weather  was  bitterly  cold 
most  of  the  week,  this  years  team  was  out 
at  Bobicks  (Wrights)  Golf  Range  and  Brook- 
wood  Golf  Course  sharpening  their  skitls- 

Team  should  improve 

This  years  team  should  fare  quite  a  bit 
better  than  last  year's,  mainly  because  of 
five  returning  players  and  some  promising 
new  ones.  Those  returning  players  are  led 
by  seniors  Jeff  Greene,  who  was  in  Florida 
for  spring  vacation,  and  Steve  Williams 


Returning  juniors  are  Steve  Grady,  Dave 
Huffman,  and  John  Wright.  New  additions 
to  this  year's  team  are  sophomores  Jed 
Chase  and  fulike  Arnold,  junior  Steve 
Vorndran  and  senior  Larry  Thiene. 

Practice  started  on  Monday  when  the 
team  met  at  Bobicks  and  hit  a  bucket  of 
balls  before  going  out  to  the  course.  Tues- 
day morning  the  team  met  at  Brookwood. 
their  home  course,  and  played  nine  holes 
and  hit  120  shag  balls.  They  followed  the 
same  routine  the  rest  of  the  week  until 
Friday,  when  the  weather  turned  warmer 
and  ihey  got  in  18  holes. 

Some  of"  the  befit  rounds  up  to  date  have 
been  a  39  by  Jed  Chase  and  a  39-40;  79 
by  John  Wright.

their  semi-tinal  series  The  Komels 
played  excellent  hockey  in  the  last 
half  ot  the  season  to  win  Iheir  divi- 
sion and  then  breeze  by  Flint 

Veteran  right  winger  Chick  Balon 
who  was  out  of  action  for  all  but 
the  final  game  of  the  semi-final 
series  with  Flint  because  of  an 
iniury,  pumped  in  the  winning  goal 
last  Friday  night  to  give  the  Komets 
a  1-0  lead  m  the  championship 
"series 
Coach  comments  on  play 

"I  was  going  over  the  Hon  Huron 
lineup  in  my  mind  the  other  after- 
noon, planning  matchups.  I  wanted 
to  put  a  strong  experienced 
checker  on  Bill  LeCame  and  I  felt 
Chick  was  that  guy,"  commented 
Coach  Marc  Boileau  after  !he  lense 
struggle  which  saw  the  Wings  fight 
from  behind  three  times  only  lo  fade 
in  the  linal  eight  minutes 

Defense  was  the  Komels  strong 
suit  again  last  Friday  night,  espe- 
cially in  the  second  period  when  the 
Wings  had  a  13-7  shooting  edge 
(t  started  with  rookie  goalie  Don 
Atchison  who  may  have  missed  one 
or  two  but  he  stopped  about  10 
shots  which  were  sure  goals. 
Walker  gets  haTuTck 

Brian  Walker  and  Jeff  AbleU  were 
the  stars  ot  the  second  game  as  Ihey 
scored  three  and  two  goals  respec- 
tively Walker  scored  once  in  each 
period  as  the  Komets  fought  the 
spirited  Wings  once  again.  T.ast 
Saturday's  victory  came  a  little 
easier  when  the  Komets  broke  open 
a  tight  contest  in  round  three  As 
in  Fridays  game,  the  Wings 
fashioned  a  strong  second  period 


to  score  twice,  but  unlike  Friday's 
game,  the  Komets  had  a  cusion  in 
round  two  to  hold  off  defending 
Turner  Cup  champions. 

Defense  was  again  a  big  tactor 
and  theentire  Komet  blue  line  corps 
played  well.  Don  Atchison  was 
called  upon  to  make  23  stops,  ine 
series  then  shifted  lo  Port  Huron  for 
games  three  and  four.

students  taking  the  PSAT  test.  We  had 
three  from  Elmhurst.  Penny  Wintrode. 
Glen  Rediger  and  myseif  Then  they  take 
your  SAT  scores  and  base  the  finalists  and 
scholarship  winners  on  the  SAT  scores 
and  on  extracurricular  activities."  stated

awarded.  "Mine  came  from  Central  Soya,

tour  years." 
"They  sent  me  a  letter  two  weeks  ahead 


of  the  public  announcements,  telling  me 
I  won  a  scholarship.  I  was  kind  of  shocked. 
My  verbal  scores  were  really  good  but  my 
math  score  was  really  rotten.  Penny  and 
Glenn's  two  scores  were  very  close  but 
mine  were  compatitively  different  so  I 
didn't  think  that  I  would  get  anything, 
none  of  my  teachers  believe  it,"  Susan 
commented 
Radio  Interests  senior 

Susan  plans  to  go  into  the  field  of  radio- 
news  broadcasting  and  will  go  to  Huron 
College  m  South  Dakota.  "All  I've  really 
done  during  high  school  is  speech  work. 
When  I  sent  in  my  form  I  told  them  I  had 
my  National  Forensic  League  degree  and 
was  vice-president  of  the  speech  club," 
She  also  plans  to  get  her  masters  degree 
from  the  University  of  Minnesota,

Class  planning  needs 
determined  students 


Recently,  Snider  High  School  held  a  career  week  in  which 
students  were  allowed  to  select  four  classes  they  wished 
to  participate  in  tor  an  entire  week.  The  event  was  planned 
by  the  student  council  and  members  of  their  faculty- 
Classes  included  bicycling,  tennis,  guitar,  electronic 
music,  etc.  Teachers  who  were  familiar  with  a  particular 
area  were  brought  in  to  teach  the  classes.  Students  had 
four  classes  a  day  with  a  break  for  lunch-  They  were  pre- 
sented a  list  of  classes  to  choosen  from  which  was  prepared 
by  the  Student  Council- 
Organizing  the  week  demands  preparaUon  the  preced- 
ing school  year.  Student  Council  members  contacted 
Individuals  who  might  be  helpful  In  teaching  and  tried 
(o  offer  a  diverse  list  of  classes. 

Problems  with  this  type  of  event  is  the  high  rate  of  skipp- 
ing classes.  Many  of  the  "regular"  teachers  are  not  in  the 
classrooms  and  students  tend  to  take  advantage  of  this. 
Also,  thd  work  that  must  be  put  into  this  requires  a  responsi- 
ble group  of  people. 

However,  the  monotony  of  weekly  classes  would  be 
broken.  Also,  it  offers  some  knowledge  to  areas  students 
might  have  never  been  introduced  to.  Perhaps  a  Student 
Council  isn't  always  busy  with  a  project,  but  this  single 
project  would  involve  much  more  time  than  many  people 
realize.  If  Elmhurst  students  were  interested  in  this  type 
of  "mini  classes"  for  the  1973-74  school  year,  plans  must 
be  made  now.  Responsible  junior  and  sophomore  students 
must  be  appointed  to  contact  administrators  not  only  from 
Elmhurst  but  also  from  Snider.  Experience  is  the  best 
teacher. 

It  Snider  can  organize  a  week  of  interesting  classes 
why  can't  Elmhurst  students  do  the  same?  Contacts  must 
be  made  immediately  and  plans  should  be  developing.

"Frtends"  give  knowledge 

Inslruclors  need  to  realize  that 
they  have  competition  challenging 
everything  they  say.  Students  can 
find  It  extremely  bard  to  believe  Ihal 
a  drug  IS  bad,  "|ust  because  the 
leacher  said  so  '  They  have  friends 
who  can  tell  them  different. 

If  a  teacher  doesn't  know  what 
he's  talking  about  in  some  subjects, 
he  can  bluff  his  way  through.  In 
drug  information  courses,  the 
instructor  cannot  get  away  with 
anything  like  that.  If  he  doesn't 
know  the  material  thoroughly  the 
students  will  sense  it  The  drug  cul- 
ture is  their  world  and  if  they  know 
more  about  drugs  than  their 
teacher  does,  the  course  is  a  com- 
plete waste.  An  uninformed  teacher 
can  harm  the  majority  of  his  pupils. 
Light  coverage  worthless 

Shoddy  attempts  have  been 
made,  in  most  cases,  to  educate 
about  drugs  Health  and  science 
classes  usually  throw  in  a  light  sec- 
lion  on  drug  abuse  that  hardlj 
covers  more  than  a  week. 
Undetailed  instruction  is  boring  to 
the  students  and  accomplished 
nothing.  The  average  students 
knows  a  considerable  amouni 
about  drugs  from  the  street. 

Drug  instruction  is  certainly 
worthwhile,  but  sloppy  teaching 
methods  must  be  abolished  before

Kid  "  is  a  situation, comedy  that 
comes  on  like  'The  Graduate"  with 
its  fairy  tale-like  plot,  but  without 
the  great  soundtrack. 

The  story  begins  as  the  hero  of 
the  show,  Leonard,  meets  an  aver- 
age nice  girl  in  a  bar.  After  a  short 
courtship,  he  and  his  new  love,  Ly  la, 
are  united  in  matrimony  in  a  small 
Jewish  ceremony.  The  viewer,  as 
well  as  poor  Leonard,  begin  to 
realize  what  a  mistake  he  has  made 
when  Lyia  reveals  her  obnoxious 
qualities  on  the  way  to  their  honey- 
moon retreat  in  Miami,  Florida, 

In  the  middle  ot  passionate  love 
scenes,  she  alwayS  demands  that 
Leonard  make  speeches  about  how 
she  was  worth  wailing  for  and  how 
wonderful  she  is.  He  then  gets  the 
slight  hint  that  she  is  a  pig  when 
she  slobbers  all  over  a  double- 
decker  egg  salad  sandwich  that 
ends  up  mostly  on  her  face, 

LyIa  exhibits  talent 

LyIa  exhibits  her  tine  musical  tal- 
ent as  she  bellows  "Close  To  You" 
like  a  cow.  Lyia's  imperfections 
reach  a  peak  when  they  finally 
arrive  at  their  destination.  Eicited 
Leonard  heads  for  the  fun  and  sun 
as  LyIa  primps  in  front  of  her  mirror 
for  hours.  While  waiting  on  the 
beach  for  his  wife,  Leonard  firs* 
comes  in  contact  with  the  girl  of 
his  dreams. 

During  this  first  brief  meeting  he 
finds  out  that  her  name  is  Kelly  and 


Ihat  she  is  on  vacation  Leonard  is 
then  joined  by  LyIa  who  refuses  to 
get  out  of  the  hot  sun.  Con- 
sequently she  gets  a  bad  sunburn 
and  has  to  stay  in  bed.  His  first  night 
on  the  town  alone,  Leonard  goes 

tothebartor  a  drink  where  he  again 
encounters  Kelly  and  they  make 
plans  to  meet  the  next  day  on  the 
beach.  After  frolicking  in  the  water, 
that  following  day,  they  start  to  get 
lo  know  each  other  belter  when

tries  to  impress  her  father  who 
immediately  dislikes  him.  Forgett- 
ing about  his  late  dinner  date  with 
his  wife,  Leonard  comes  up  with  the 
absurd  excuse  that  he  and  his 
buddy  had  gotten  into  a  bad  acci-

in  court  the  next  morning  while  he

Leonard  decided  that  this  is  the  lite

Kelly,  so  he  tells  Kelly  lhat  he  plans 
to  lay  his  cards  on  the  table  and

thai  desires  his  daughter 

Uur  hero  returns  to  LyIa  with  a 
slightly  suspicious  sunta.  only  to 
tell  her  another  monstrous  lie  about 
attending  a  funeral.  He  meets  with

of  his  plans  lo  get  a  divorce  and 
qo  to  claim  Kelly  as  his  own  in  Min-

father.  It  even  seems  that  Kelly  is 
no  longer  interested  until  Leonard 
outwits  some  college  boys  by  pre- 
tending to  be  a  narcotics  agent. 

Still  determined  to  win  the  girl  of 
his  dreams,  Leonard  again  tried  lo 
impress  Ihe  disgusted  father  at  a 
dinner,  Kelly's  father  excuses  them 
both  and  they  have  a  showdown  on

Mike  finds  golf  as  a  good  past 
time  when  he  isn't  practicing  bow- 
ling. He  finds  it  relaxes  him  and 
gives  him  time  to  think.  Mike  feels 
that  bowling  should  be  an  intra- 
school  sport  like  golf,  basketball 
and  tennis.  "Its  more  interesting 
than  tennis  and  it  supplies  more 
excitement,"  stated  Mike.

When  asked  what  advice  he

"Practice  a  lot  and  work  on  your

myself  to  bowl  a  lot  >- Jtter  each

Mike's  reflections  on  bowling  are 
applied  to  everyday  living.  "Work 
hard  and  strive  for  your  own  peak 
of  excellence,  whether  it  be  second 
best  or  first,  it's  still  your  own  work 
that  got  you  there."

ol  the  struggle  for  women's  rights, 
iwo  out  of  three  women  think  that 
It  won!  have  an  effect  on  their  own 
lives. 

Fewer  than  Iwo  per  cent  Ihink 
that  "mosl  women  can  best 
develop  Iheir  potential  by  being 
good  wives  and  mothers'.  Instead 
they  believe  that  women  should  be 
allowed  to  determine  and  follow 
Ihelr  own  desires. 

One  point  about  the  question- 
naire came  oul  strongly:  women 
are  very  aware  of  Iheir  role  in  soci- 
ety and  the  options  thai- are  open 
or  closed  to  them.  Traditional  and 
nontradilional  alike,  they  share  a 
strong  belief  in  the  equality  of 
women  in  spile  of  the  impression 
that  the  women's  movement  appe- 
als only  lo  a  small  group  of  mili- 
tants. 

And  since  women  are  more  likely 
lo  develop  such  dealings  once  they 
leave  the  home,  and  greater  num- 
bers ol  women  are  entering  the 
world  of  work,  society  can  expect 
to  witness  a  conlinuing, 
sirengihening  committment  to  the 
principle  ol  equality  ol  the  sexes 
and  the  right  of  each  individual  to 
exercise  control  over  her  personal 
destiny

Port  Huron  selected  three  all- 
stars  after  the  game.  They  were  in 
order  Don  Atchison,  Wayne  Ego 
and  Jim  Pearson. 

In  the  happy  Komel  locker  room, 
Ego  officially  announced  his  retir- 
ment  from  hockey.  "I  said  all  during 
Ihe  year,  if  we  won  the  Turner  Cup, 
I'd  retire,"  he  said,  "and  now  we've 
done  it." 

Coach  Marc  Boileau  asked, 
"Whal  do  you  think  of  Ihe  all-star 
coach  and  team  noW  "  Bob  Filch- 
ner  responded  from  nearby.  We 
had  18  all-stars.  We  knew  we  had 
It  in  practice.  It  was  there."

the  1973  members,  "I  want  to  con- 
gratulate you  on  being  chosen  as 
members  of  the  National  Honor  Soci- 
ety. This  was  done  by  the  faculty  and 
not  by  me.  The  teachers  rated  you 
people.  Qualifications  for  service  and 
scholastically  were  not  hard  to 
decide,  but  it's  a  little  more  difficult 
to  judge  character  and  leadership.  It 
takes  these  qualities  to  become  a 
member".

"Ticket  sales  for  Ihe  Junior-Senior  Prom 
have  nol  gone  well  this  year  as  was  hoped" 
commented  the  Prom  Committee.  Prices 
were  raised  for  this  years  dinner  and 
dance  in  order  to  break  even  as  last  year's 
debt,  amounting  to  $500,  was  payed  by 
Ihe  school.  Because  of  this  fact  the  school 
will  not  be  able  to  cover  expenses  of  (his 
prom.  The  Committee  therefore  has  been 
planning  on  Ihe  selling  of  tickets  to  make 
up  tor  last  year's  problems. 

The  price  will  be  raised  to  $10  unless 
a  100  tickets  are  bought  lor  Ihe  dmner- 
dance  combination.  The  dinner  was 
added  lo  this  year's  prom  so  the  cost 
would  be  cut  down  by  nol  having  to  take 
their  date  out  before.

ness  Barn  will  feature  the  rock  band  Iron

ihroughout  the  halls,  announcements  and  letters 
of  encouragement  were  issued  daily.  Still,  the 
student  body  was  unimpressed  with  the  thought 
of  a   73  prom 

"There's  basically  no  interest.*'  remarked 
senior  Steve  fwlrller  "Proms  are  a  dying  thing, 
I  thmk  people  just  don't  have  the  time.  You  can 
go  places  in  your  jeans  and  have  a  good  time 
for  live  bucks.  Proms  take  time,  money,  and  pre- 
paration. A  lot  of  times  kids  don't  have  that," 

Chairman  states  statistics 

■■We  could  cancel  the  prom."  senior  Dave 
Butler  reasoned,  "but  that  would  cost  us  three 
hundred  dollars  for  the  room  rental,  even  if  we 
didn't  use  it.  If  we  don't  meet  the  costs,  we'll 
have  to  have  a  project  through  school  like  candv 


sales  or  a  car  wash    1  just  hope  we  make  our 
quota  " 

"I  think  the  prom  will  be  a  lot  different  this 
year,"  Dave  added.  Ms  at  a  better  place  and  the 
band  will  be  good,  We  really  should  have  a  good 
turnout   Hopefully,  we  will." 

Prom  bores  student 

■Tm  not  going  this  year  because  last  year's 
prom  wasn't  all  that  good,"  said  senior  LaVern 
Warner,  "Most  of  the  kids  just  sat  around  and 
got  bored  So  many  people  left  early  because 
there  was  nothing  to  do." 

■proms  are  kind  of  beat.'  remarked  Kim 
Critchfield.  junior"!  haven't  been  to  a  good  prom 
yet.  There's  not  enough  atmosphere  at  a  prom  " 

"It  there  were  more  dances  and  activities 
where  people  could  get  together  during  the 
year."  Kim  added,  "by  the  time  the  prom  came, 
more  people  would  be  ready  to  go.  Proms  are 
just  boring,  because  there's  nothina  to  da  " 


"\  don't  think  school  spirit  has  anything  to  do 
with  the  prom,"  said  senior  Matt  Hunter.  It's  more 
like  a  general  apathy  about  school  activities. 
Most  people  would  probably  rather  go  to  the 
after-prom  than  the  prom  because  it's  not  formal. 
The  money,"  he  added,  "is  probably  a  problem 
for  some  kids." 

Reasons  for  the  dying  interest  in  the  prom  vary, 
but  they  all  point  to  one  common  idea.  Proms 
do  not  have  what  students  are  looking  for. 

It  proms  are  to  survive,  they  have  to  have  the 
support  of  the  students.  Students  will  not  support 
something  they  do  not  enjoy  To  meet  the  wants 
of  the  students,  proms  must  be  changed 

Music  needs  modernizing 

Traditional  dance  music  could  be  updated  to 
rock  tor  a  modern  atmosphere  at  the  prom.  The 
cost  could  be  lowered  to  enable  more  kids  to 
come 

Students  definitely  want  to  see  the  tradition 
of  proms  continue  If  they  are  to  keep  on.  how- 
ever, they  must  be  centered  around  the  likes  and 
dislikes  of  the  students.

State  Faces  Double  Tax 
Possibility  in  Future 


The  possibility  ot  two  tax  raises  is  currently  troubling 
some  Hoosier  citizens  Governor  Otis  Bowen  has  passed 
a  tax  raise  and  a  tax  decrease.  The  increase  v^^ill  be  a  sales 
tax,  which  will  go  to  4  per  cent  on  the  first  of  May.  Property 
tax  will  decrease  by  20  per  cent, 

Bowen's  new  tax  system  is  aimed  to  aiding  the  elderly  and 
the  property  owners.  However,  the  backbone  of  the  country  will 
not  profit  from  this  system.  The  middle  income  people  have  been 
struck  again  with  a  booming  tax.  He  is  the  one  who  owns  a 
minimum  of  property.  Also,  the  college  student,  who  must  save 
for  school,  and  most  other  youths  who  own  very  little  properly 
must  pay  this  additional  tax. 
Increase  hits  4  per  cent 

.The  increase  on  sales  tax  is  as  follows:  one  cent  will  be  charged 
for  purchases  of  16-37  cents,  two  cents  on  purchases  of  38-62 
cents,  three  cents  tor  purchases  ot  63-87  cents  and  four  cents 
on  purchases  of  88  cents  -  $1  12.  etc. 

Another  tax  Hoosiers  and  other  Americans  are  facing  is  a  possi- 
ble increase  in  federal  taxes.  President  Nixon  recently  made  a 
slight  hint  that  taxes  would  have  to  be  increased  in  order  to  '"cool 
off"  booming  inflation  and  reduce  inflationary  pressures, 
Nixon  "toughens"  plan 

The  President  promised  the  Administration  was  looking  "at 
Phase  III  to  see  where  it  can  be  made  tougher".  Obviously,  it 
wasn't  working  as  Nixon  had  planned  it  would.  Prices  are  still 
at  an  all  time  high.  Hopefully,  if  an  increase  in  federal  taxes  is 
passed.  Nixon's  plans  of  conquering  inflation  will  come  about! 

The  Administration  blames  the  current  inflationary  situation  to 
a  current  rise  in  available  jobs  and  an  increase  in  wages. 

Hopefully.  President  Nixon  will  organize  the  economy  so  an 
increase  in  federal  taxes  will  not  be  necessary.  Citizens  of  Indiana 
have  been  subject  to  one  increase  already,  and  a  second  will 
not  be  appreciated.  With  almost  20  per  cent  of  wages  going  to 
taxes,  a  worker  cannot  afford  an  increase

One  controversia!  club  m  our 
school,  ttie  Atro-Arnerican  Club,  is 
lacking  one  particular  type  ot 
member,  white  students. 

Mrs  Banks,  club  sponsor,  IS  con- 
cerned over  ttie  tact  that  wtiite  stu- 
dents haven't  (Oined  the  club  prob- 
ably due  to  the  lack  ol  communica- 
tion Last  year  ttie  constitution 
closed  the  membership  to  black 
students  only.  Now  any  student  may 
|oin  ihe  club. 

The  Afro-American  Club  is  pre- 


senting ttieir  annual  Fasti  ion  Stiow 
All  proceeds  wili  provide  a  scholar- 
ship to  a  senior  with  a  B  average 
who  has  already  been  accepted  at 
a  college  or  university.  Their  goal 
is  set  tor  at  least  $500.  The  meeting 
ol  April  19  consisted  ot  organizing 
the  entertainment  for  the  Fashion 
Show 

Some  students  interviewed  com- 
plained that  the  club  sounded  like 
another  history  class.  It  is  not  con- 
ducted like  a  history  class.  There 
are  no  text  books  or  instructors,  the 
members  themselves  bring  in  (he 
knowledge  and  literature  If  you 
have  heard  something,  you  bring  it 
in  and  share  it  with  the  club.  You 
may  discuss  it  or  leave  it  at  will 
Club  sponsors  activities 

Some  students  rationalized  thev 
could  see  no  real  purpose  in  ihe 
club,  that  the  club  did  not  do  any- 
thing. Contradicting  this,  the  club 
sponsors  the  Fashion  Show,  ihe 
Walk  tor  Development,  which  aids 
the  fund  for  Sickle-Cell  anemia,  a 
disease  which  atlects  mainly 
blacks  They  sponsor  many  other 
projects  that  require  the  time  and 
energy  ol  the  club  members. 

Two  students  Irom  the  Elmhurst 
club  belong  to  the  city-wide  Afro- 
American  Club  which  is  presenting 
a  play  called  Journey  Into  Black- 
ness". Group  activities  also  include 
a  formal  candlelight  dinner  around 
Christmas  and  an  informal  "End  of 
School"  picnic  which  is  held  at  the 
home  of  one  of  the  students 
sponsors  consider  proposals 

Other  clubs  m  the  school  are 
helping  out  Ihe  community  and 
have  planned  activities  as  well.  A 
meeting  ot  club  sponsors  is  con- 
sidering proposals  lor  improved 
nferest  in  the  clubs.  They  need  the 
support  of  every  student  to  help 
make  possible  an  integrated  club 
movement.

Prisoners  write  poetry 

>y  Tammv  Schnrtar  *  ^ 


by  Tammy  Schecter 

The  prisoners  are 
organizing  ideallstlcally 
correctional  institutions, 
commonly  l<nown  and 
appropriately  so,  as  pris- 
ons should  be  designed  to 
not  only  punish  by  confine- 
ment an  individual  con- 
victed of  a  crime,  but  also 
to  rehabilitate  this 
Individual  as  to  prepare  him 
tor  his  reentrance  Into  soci- 
ety. Tragically  however,  the 
vast  majority  of  prisons  in 
the  U.S.  merely  confine  and 
punish  providing  no  means 
for  prisoners  to  change  and 
gain  what  education  and 
expansion  of  mind  and 
body  is  missing  or  was 
never  there  to  begin  with. 

Steps  In  reform  planned 

Thus,  we  find  ex-convicts 
organizing  to  try  and  help  their 
brothers  and  sisters  from  the  out- 
side, while,  those  still  behind  bars 
try  fervently  in  various  ways  to 
ifnprove  a  tragedy  they  must  Itve 
with  24  hours  a  day 

One  of  the  major  steps  in  trying 
to  reform  the  prison  system  is  mak- 
ing the  public  aware  of  Ihe  plight 
o(  the  prisoners  The  Fortune  Soci- 
ety, located  in  New  York  and  con- 
sisting primarily  ot  ex-convicts  pub- 
lishes a  monthly  paper  as  part  of 
it's  effort  in  creating  public  aware- 
ness of  the  prison  system  in 
Amenca  today  The  FS  also,  in  an 
effort  lo  relate  first  hand  informa- 


tion concerning  the  experiences  of 
prison  life  along  with  understand- 
ing ihe  cause  of  crimes  m  America, 
sends  oul  teams  of  speakers  to  talk 
to  school  groups,  church  and  civic 
groups,  and  on  radio  and  television. 

Important  as  il  is  to  receive  out- 
side help,  so  is  it  importanl  to  help 
oneself.  Prisoners  across  America 
are  becoming  increasingly  aware  of 
this  necessity  and  are  on  their  way 
in  organization  and  effort 

A  group  of  prisoners  in  Pennsyl- 
vania has  formed  a  group  called, 
"The  Noetics".  They  describe  them- 
selves as  "a  group  composed  of 
young  men  dedicated  to  Ihe  goals 
of  prison  reform,  re-establishing 
social  contact  through  community 
interactions  and  involvement  and 
the  never-ending  task  of  self- 
development  Ihrough  intellectual 
suits". 
Prisoners  collect  money 

Another  group  of  prisoners  at 
Attica  Prison  collected  $398.80 
which  they  presented  to  the  Sickle 
Cell  Anemia  Fund  That  was  quite 
an  achievement  in  a  siluation  where 
no  money  or  very  little  money 
passes  through  the  prisoners 


hands.  Not  only  an  achievement, 
but  also  a  great  boost  to  the  morale 
of  the  prisoners  in  their  never- 
ceasing  struggle  lor  reform. 

Many  efforts  to  organize  and 
rehabilitate  America's  prisoners  are 
being  attempted  in  and  oul  of  pris- 
ons across  the  country.  Those 
involved  with  these  attempts  are 
pleading  with  the  public  to  have 
compassion  tor  their  fellow  men 
and  women  in  prison  The  results 
of  prisoners  organization  is  yet  lo 
be  seen,  but  their  struggle  cannot 
be  ignored.

Legalize  the  act  of  sticking  nee- 
dles and  pins  into  people  to  cure 
various  ailments'  II  sounds  far 
fetched  but  the  slate  of  Nevada  has 
laken  the  slep  and  last  week 
became  the  first  in  the  nation  to 
declare  I'  e  Chinese  medicines, 
accupunclure.  "a  learned  profes- 
sion'. 

Interest  in  acupuncture  was 
spurred  by  President  Nixon's  1972 
tripio  China.  A  number  of  accupun- 
cturisls  were  found  practicing  in 
the  United  Stales,  but  some  of  them 
lacked  medical  certification  and 
were  forced  to  stop  practicing  In 
1972,  for  the  first  time  in  23  years, 
a  group  of  Chinese  medical  scien- 
tists visited  United  States  health 
centers  in  a  whirlwind  tour  of  Ihe 
country 

fiAedlclne  In  ancient  China  was 
a  welt-respected  profession  and 
included  both  herbists  and 
acupuncturists.  Both  lorms  ot 
medical  practice  have  continued 
since  ancient  titlmes.  In  China 
today,  acupuncturists  still  out 
number  Western-type  physicians 
by  20  to  1. 


A  legislator  said  that  he  had 
been  cured  of  the  pain  of  a  child- 
hood knee  Injury,  and  a  hird 
claimed  to  have  been  relieved  only 
temporarily  though,  of  a  number  ot 
leq  aliments. 


There  is  rea)  evidence  that 
acupuncture  can  provide  total 
anethesia  for  a  wide  variety  of  ope- 
rations, including  dental  e)ttrac- 
tions,  removal  of  a  lung  and  tonsils. 
Outstanding  American  doctors 
have  observed  and  can  testify  to  the 
effectiveness  of  acupuncture 
anesthesia  in  mainland  China. 


Many  western  doctors,  however, 
don't  believe  the  claims  made  by 
the  Chinese  about  acupuncture.  In 
spile  of  this  attitude,  a  number  of 
top-ranked  scientists  are  planning 
experiments  to  lest  the  validity  ot 
this  ancient  technique. 


in  Nevada,  lawmakers  legalized 
acupuncture. herbal  medicine  and 
other  Chinese  practices  They  were 
sold  on  Ihe  idea  by  a  free  Chinese 
clinic,  that  by  special  permission, 
was  opened  for  three  weeks  in  Car-

Generals  for  ten  grueling  innings- 
Steve  Reed  of  Wayne,  however,  was 
equally  effective  against  Eimhur- 
st.Both  pitchers  were  taken  out 
after  the  tenth  inning  because  of  an 
IHSAA  rule. 

The  biggest  scoring  threats  by 
Wayne  came  in  the  sixth  and  twelth 
innings  In  the  sixth,  they  managed 
to  load  the  bases  with  two  outs,  only 
to  have  their  catcher  Holloway  fly 
out  to  left  field 

In  the  last  inning,  only  an  excel- 
lent relief  performance  by  junior 
Dennis  Geisleman,  kept  Wayne 
from  winning  the  game.  Tim 
Thomas,  Wayne's  relief  pitcher,  led 
off  with  a  walk  He  advanced  to  sec- 
ond on  a  wild  pitch  by  sophomore 
Lynn  Brown  Geisleman  then  came 
in  and  was  greeted  by  a  sacrifice

Strategy  proves  effective 

Coach  Derbyshire  then  decided 
to  load  the  bases  with  two  inten- 
tional walks  His  strategy  paid  ott 
as  his  pitcher,  Geisleman,  came 
through  with  two  big  strike  outs  to 
preserve  the  time  for  Eimhurst  The 
game  will  be  played  off  on  May  14 
at  McMillen  Park  belore  the 
scheduled  game  with  Wayne. 

The  game  which  was  to  be  played 
on  Thursday  was  delayed  until 
Friday    Concordia  came  through 


with  its  first  win  at  the  expense  of 
the  Trojans. 

Junior  Bernie  Kampschmidt 
came  through  again  wUh  a  fine  per- 
formance as  he  pitched  a  five  hitter. 
All  he  got  tor  this  however,  was  a 
loss  as  his  teammates  again  )ust 
couldn't  put  together  their  offen- 
sive attach  Phil  Fleming  of  Concor- 
dia held  Eimhurst  scoreless  only  to 
lose  the  shutout  in  the  last  inning.

In  the  seventh.  |unior  Greg  Mar- 
den  came  through  with  a  triple  and 
went  home  on  a  double  to  account 
for  the  only  Trojan  run. 

The  loss  put  the  Trojan  record  at 
1-2  while  Concordia's  record

Boys  receive  military  honors 


Seniors  William  Myers,  Tom  Boyer, 
Joel  Mays  and  Richard  Read  have 
recently  received  honors  from  the 
military  in  the  way  of  nominations 
and  appointments  to  various 
academies. 

Richard  was  appointed  to  the  Coast 
Guard  in  New  London.  Connecticut, 
"There  are  no  political  nominations," 
he  explained.  "Everybody  that  com- 
petes, competes  with  everybody  else." 
The  appointments  are  based  on  SAT 
scores  and  results  of  the  mathematics 
and  English  Achievement  Tests, 

"I  report  June  25  and  go  for  four 
years.  We  get  vacations  for  Christmas 
and  three  weeks  off  in  the  summer," 
he  commented.  While  attending  ttie 
academy,  Richard  will  take  various 
military  courses  and  engineering. 
Senior  wishes  career 

Richard  explained  that  he  has 
wanted  to  go  into  the  Coast  Guard 
since  he  was  quite  young.  "Right  now 
I  want  to  make  it  my  career  but  you 
can't  tell  until  you  have  a  taste  of  it," 
he  added. 

After  the  four  years  in  the  academy 
there  is  an  obligation  to  serve  five 
more  years  with  the  Coast  Guard. 
"What  I  like  about  the  Coast  Guard  is 
that  it  isn't  strictly  military.  It  has  a 
job  in  peace  time  and  it  works 
waterways  and  conducts  search  and 
rescue  missions,"  Richard  gestured. 

Richard  has  been  working  with  Mr. 
Sinks  on  his  appointment  since  the 
first  of  the  year  when  applications 
were  due.  He  received  notice  on  April 
23  that  he  had  been  accepted  to  the 
academy. 

Academy  requires  tests 

Bill  received  a  nomination  for 
appointment  to  the  Merchant  Marine 


Academy  m  Newport.  New  York  from 
Congressman  J  Edward  Roush,  Re- 
quirements included  application  form 
completions,  SAT,  Achievement  Tests, 
Civil  Service  Exam  and  a  physical  at 
Grissom  Air  Force  Base. 

Bill  explained,  "First  you  get  the 
nomination  and  then  the  appointment, 
I  also  had  to  have  letters  of  recomen- 
dation,"  He  stated  he  did  not  get  the 
appointment,  however,  because  of  his 
poor  eyesight,  "I  thought  it  was  nice 
for  Congressman  Roush  to  give  me  this 
honor,"  Bill  commented. 


Tom  was  nominated  to  the  Air 
Force  Academy  m  Colorado  and  the 
Naval  Academy  at  Annapolis  by  Con- 
gressman Roush,  Although  he  com- 
pleted application  forms  for  the 
nomination,  Tom  changed  his  mind 
about  attending  the  academies.  "I 
would  not  be  able  to  get  out  of  the 
service  until  I  was  36  years  old  because 
I  wanted  to  further  my  education,"  he 
explained. 

Joel  received  nominations  to  West 
Point  Military  Academy  in  New  York 
and  the  Naval  Academy  in  Maryland

Junior  wins  trip  to  Africa 


Junior  Evan  Davies  recently  won  a 
three  week  trip  to  Kenya  and  Tanzania 
in  a  photo-essay  contest  sponsored  by 
Explorers,  a  division  of  Boy  Scouts  of 
America, 

"Explorers  have  a  magazine  and 
there  was  an  ad  in  one  for  the  contest. 
I  figured  what  the  heck,  I  couldn't  lose 
anything  by  entering,"  stated  Evan, 

Requirements  for  the  contest  were 
two  eight  by  10  photo  prints  and  a 
1500-2000  word  essay.  "The  essay  was 
supposedly  to  express  your  knowledge 
on  Africa  and  why  vcu  wanted  to  go 
in d    how    it    would  affect   your    later 


career.  I  told  bow  i  have  an  interest  in 
being  a  doctor  and  in  science;  also  of 
my     interest     in     photographing     the 
archeological  places  in  Africa." 
Evan  enters  photographs 

Evan's  two  winning  photographs 
were  of  vice-president  Spiro  Agnew 
which  appeared  in  the  school  paper 
and  one  of  the  heavy  snowstorm  last 
winter,  "The  pictures  were  supposed 
to  deal  with  interest  in  nature  and 
environment."  He  explained  the  pic- 
ture of  Agnew  as  part  of  the  "political 
environment," 

Evan    will    leave    for    Kenya    and

country  cannot  go. 

"I'm  looking  forward  to  having  a 
break  from  work  and  just  going  onthe 
trip  in  general.  Most  of  the  time  we'll 
stay  in  hotels.  Some  nights  we'll  stay 
in  tent  camps.  We  will  also  stay  in 
"tree-tops"  -  hotels  that  are  in  the  air. 
Underneath  them  are  salt  licks  where 
the  animals  gather  and  we  can  observe 
them  from  above,"

Summer  Employment 


The  outlook  for  summer  employment 
for  students  seems  to  be  a  little  brighter  for 
the  coming  season.  Though  the  situation  is 
still  "tight,"  more  jobs  are  available  than 
last  year. 

A  Davenport,  Iowa  high  school  news- 
paper completed  an  in  depth  article  on 
student  employment.  Forty-six  per  cent  of 
the  1713  students  polled  were  employed. 

Included  in  the  article  was  the  effect 
outside  jobs  have  on  a  students  homework 
and  his  participation  in  extracurricular 
activities.  The  majority  of  teachers  believed 
that  grades  would  inevitably  drop  if  stu- 
dents had  a  job.  Seventy-nine  per  cent  of 
the  students,  however,  said  jobs  did  not 
interfere  with  their  school  work. 
Government  cuts  funds 

On  the  national  scene,  less  federal 
money  is  going  into  summer-employment 
efforts  this  year.  Youth  in  low  income 
families  will  find  it  especially  difficult  to 
find  summer  employment. 

Many  of  the  best  summer  jobs  have 
already  been  filled  and  remaining  jobs  are 
reserved  for  youths  on  the  poverty  level. 
The  Emergency  Employment  Program, 
which  was  created  to  find  jobs  for  adults, 
will   be   used   to   fund  the  Neighborhood 


Youth  Corps.  This  forces  local  aides  to 
choose  whether  to  help  unemployed  adults 
or  youths. 

One  difficulty  in  finding  a  job  is  many 
students  have  been  hired  months  in  ad- 
vance because  of  "connections"  or  a  special 
ability.  The  Fort  Wayne  Unemployment 
Security  is  planning  a  special  day  for 
youths  to  apply  for  a  summer  job.  YES 
Day,  Youth  Employment  Service,  is 
scheduled  for  Saturday,  June  2. 

College  and  high  school  students  are  to 
go  to  the  Unemployment  Security  building 
if  they  seek  employment  for  the  summer. 
It  will  be  advertised  and  additional  infor- 
mation will  be  available. 
Situation  varies 

The  situation  in  other  cities  around  the 
country  vary.  In  Detroit,  businesses  are 
picking  up  and  more  jobs  are  available. 
Atlanta  has  a  dimmer  outlook  as  a  place- 
ment official  said,  "It's  not  too  promising." 

More  jobs  are  available  and  more  stu- 
dents are  seeking  jobs  in  the  Midwest, 
according  to  U.S.  News  &  World  Report. 
One  of  the  best  places  they  advise  to  go  to 
is  one  of  the  amusement  centers  around  the 
area. 

Employment  experts  say  many  jobs  go 


left  untouched  because  people  feel  they  are 
capable  of  doing  something  more  worth- 
while. Some  even  would  rather  not  work 
than  to  lower  themselves  to  some  menial 
task.  These  jobs  do  provide  pay,  which  is 
more  than  just  sitting  around  home  does 
for  you.

Western  provides  humor 


Religious  groups  claim 
immortality,  defy  death 


The  Life  and  Times  of 
Judge  Roy  Bean  is  a 
ficticious  story  about  how 
the  law  was  enforced  west 
of  the  Pecos  River  in  Texas. 
Paul  Newman  plays  the  title 
role  of  a  once  outlaw  turn- 
ed judge  who  fights  for 
justice  and  Lilly  Langtry, 
his  ideal  woman. 

Roy  Sean  decides  to  become 
the  law  when  he  goes  to  a  cabin 
after  he  has  committed  a 
robbery  and  he  is  dragged  be- 
hind a  horse  and  almost  killed 


A  church  in  Carson  Spring,  Tennessee  routinely  tests  its 
congregationers  faith  by  making  them  handle  poisonous 
snakes.  This  church  is  one  that  takes  the  passage  of  Mark 
16;16-18  literally.  "He  that  believeth  and  is  baptized  shall 
speak  with  new  tongues;  they  shall  take  up  sepents;  and  if 
they  drink  any  deadly  thing,  it  shall  not  hurt  them." 

The  parishoners  of  The  Holiness  Church  of  God  in  Jesus     ^^  ^^^^  greedy  Mexicans.  He 
Name  believe  that  if  they  are  bitten  while  handling  the     helped  by  a  beautiful  Mexican 
snakes,  it  shows  insufficient  faith.  They  refuse  treatment 
for  any  bites.  If  they  die,  it  is  because  their  faith  was  weak. 

A  few  weeks  ago,  two  leaders  of  the  church  decided  to 
put  thti.  r:i'H  ^"  the  maximum  test.  At  the  conclusion  of 
an  evening  service  ai  'hr  sects  little  hilltop  church,  a 
potent  mixture  of  strychnine  ana  wut?r  was  prepared.  "A 
perfect  love  casteth  out  fear,"  Assistant  Pastor,  Jimmy 
Ray    Williams,   proclaimed,   downing  half   of  the   poison. 

"We're  doing  just  as  the  Lord  has  bid  us  to  do."  At  that  

another  layman  Buford  Pack,  finished  off  the  rest  of  the    sentences  and  hangs  them.  The 
strichnine. 

Williams  had  told  reporters  a  few  months  earlier  that 
it's  against  the  law  to  sell  poison  for  church  services  and  if 
a  man  told  a  lie  to  buy  strichnine,  "it  would  kill  you 
because  you  lied." 

No  one  is  sure  how  Williams  got  the  strichnine,  but 
outside  the  church  after  the  service,  the  two  men  doubled 
up  in  an  agony  of  convulsions.  By  morning,  both  men  were 
dead. 

Williams  and  Pack  were  buried  in  a  snake-handling 
funeral  service.  On  their  lifeless  stomachs  lay  Bibles 
opened  to  Mark  16:16-18.

holding    the     honor     of     Lily 


Langtry,  an  actress  he  has  never 
seen  in  person,  and  he  plasters 
his  walls  with  posters  of  his 
"goddess."  Because  Roy  Bean 
has  cleaned  out  the  lawlessness 
in  the  area,  a  town  begins  to 
grow  around  his  place,  He  finds 
wives  for  his  sheriffs  and  he  lives 
with  the  Mexican  girl  who  saved 
him.  A  tame  bear,  who  was  left 
behind  to  the  judge  by  a  dying 
man.  becomes  a  good  friend  and 
lives  and  drinks  with  the  judge. 
Lawyer  hold  grudge 

The  little  town  prospers  and 
people  start  to  settle  there,  in- 
cluding a  lawyer  who  holds  a 
grudge  against  Roy  Bean  for 
putting  him  in  a  cage  with  the 
bear,  who  he  thought  was 
furacious.  The  lawyer  hires  a 
man  to  kill  the  Judge  but  the 
bear  fights  to  protect  him  and  he 
kills  the  man  but  also  dies  of  a 
bullet  wound. 

Judge  Roy  Bean  reads  that 
Lilly  Langtry  is  going  to  perform 
in  a  nearby  city  so  he  leaves 
behind  his  pregnant  girl  and  goes 
to  see  her,  Because  the  Judge  has 
no  reservations  to  see  Lilly  he 
cannot  get  in  and  he  is  mugged 
by  two  men  who  say  they  will 
get  him  in. 


The  disappointed  Judge  re- 
turns to  his  town  only  to  find 
that  the  Mexican  girl  has  given 
birth  to  a  little  girl  and  she  then 
dies  upon  his  arrival.  Meanwhile 
the  lawyer  has  influenced  the 
wives  of  the  sheriffs  to  persuade 
their  husbands  to  vote  for  the 
lawyer  to  be  mayor  of  the  town. 
When  Judge  Bean  finds  out  he 
has  been  let  down  by  his  hen- 
pecked   friends   he    leaves  town 

and  leaves  his  new  born  daughter 
behind. 

Twenty  years  pass  and  no  one 
has  ever  heard  of  the  Judge. 
Under  the  leadership  of  the 
lawyer,  the  town  becomes  cor- 
rupt and  gang  wars  rule  the  town 
while  the  lawyer  gets  rich.  Beans 
daughter  still  owns  her  fathers 
place  and  the  old  sheriffs  are 
now  nothing  more  than  bums 
and  alcoholics.  Then  one  day  the 
judge  rides  into  town  and 
gathers  up  his  old  friends  to  help 
keep  the  lawyer  from  taking 
over  his  daughter's  place.  The 
last  exciting  scenes  of  this  great 
movie  are  of  Judge  Roy  Bean 
and  his  boys  having  a  final 
shootout  showdown  with  the 
lawyer  and  his  gang.

as  before  with  their  new  album, 
"Larks'  Tongues  in  Aspic." 

Led  by  guitarist,  Robert 
Fripp,  Crimson's  sound  has 
changed  along  with  the  members 
of  the  band.  David  Gross  accom- 
panies on  the  violin  and  mello- 
tron  while  John  Wetton  plays 
bass  and  does  all  vocals.  Bill 
Buford,  formerly  of  Yes  plays 
drum  with  Jamie  Muir  adding 
the  erie  percussion  effects. 
Crimson  changes  style 

The  album  is  performed  in 
the  classic  style  of  continuous 
music  broken  up  into  move- 
ments. The  title  song  gives  the 
listener  a  good  idea  of  waht  to 
expect  from  the  rest  of  the 
album.  The  blended  sound  of  all 
the   musicians  reminds  you   im- 


mediately of  the  earty  King 
Crimson  despite  their  various 
changes. 

They   still   project  originality 
m  their  electronically  produced 
music, 
Fripp  shows  talent 

l-ripp.  who  had  a  hand  in 
composing  every  song  on  the 
album,  shows  remarkable  ability 
to  produce  unique  sounds  elec- 
tronic changes  in  his  guitar. 

Produced  on  the  Atlantic 
label.  King  Crimson  has  proven 
that  their  sound  can  survive  the 
changes  they've  gone  through. 
They  still  remain  far  advanced  in 
rock  music  compared  to  the 
throbbing  sound  of  boogie 
bands.

College     costs     spiral; 
enrollments      decrease 


by  Janet  Bell 

Today's  colleges  may  be  on 
the  verge  of  bankruptcy.  Schools 
that  are  in  serious  trouble  must 
anract  more  students,  and  at- 
tending ones  must  at  least  main- 
tain stable  ?nrollments. 

Various  surveys  found  that  < 
for  next  fall,  freshman  classes  of 
many  four-year  colleges  had 
declined.  The  Association  of 
American  Colleges  asked  451  of 
Its  members,  most  of  them 
private  institutions,  and  found 
that  only  one-fourth  had  more 
applicants  than  in  1972. 


economic  status.  An  annual 
average  cost  of  S3,280  for  resi- 
dent students  at  private 
four-year  schools  is  simply  too 
much  money  many  students 
feel. 

Students  now  prefer  to  com- 
mute to  cheaper  two-year  com- 
munity and  technical  colleges 
near  their  homes.  Enrollments  at 
those  schools  rose  5.4  per  cent 
last  year,  and  are  expected  to  go 
up  approximately  the  same  pro- 
portion next  fall. 


The  National  Association  of 
State  Universities  and  Land 
Grant  Colleges  reported  that 
applications  to  the  nations  109 
major  state  university  systems 
and  campuses  had  dropped  off 
by  4.2  per  cent  -  the  first 
overall  decline  in  ten  years. 

Exactly  how  the  application 
trend  will  translate  into  class  size 
in  September  is  not  clear,  "The 
payoff  is  how  many  register," 
commented  AAC  President 
Fredric  W.  Ness.  High  School 
seniors  are  becoming  more  con- 
fident about  getting  into  their 
first-choice  colleges.  In  that 
event  there  would  be  fewer 
applications  to  second-choice 
schools  than  there  were  in  the 
competitive  1960's. 

Contrary  to  this,  the  US 
Office  of  Education  predicts 
that  next  fall's  enrollments  at 
four-year  campuses  will  be  the 
same  as  this  year's  9.2  million. 
Many  students  are  turned  off  by 
the  spiriling  college  costs  and  no 
longer  believe  that  a  degree  will 
automatically      increase      their

Among  the  using  costs  of  a 
college  education,  which  fall 
most  heavily  on  the 
middle-home  families;  are  the 
changes  in  the  draft  law,  which 
no  longer  make  it  necessary  for 
young  men  to  attend  college  to 
avoid  military  service.  Other 
reasons  include  the  doubts  about 
the  value  of  a  liberal  arts  college 
degree  compared  with  shorter, 
less  expensive  training.  The  new 
thing  among  young  people  is  the 
postponing  college  of  entrance 
for  a  year  in  order  to  travel  or 
work  to  get  extra  money. 

Approximately  three  fourths 
of  all  US  colleges  and  univer- 
sities are  now  coeducational. 
The  idea  of  coeducational  dorms 
gained  momentum  until  in  1972 
only  about  2  per  cent  of  all 
college  students  were  attending 
single-sex  universities.

Weather  finally  went  out  of  the  picture  as  the 
Tfoian  baseball  team  won  three  of  five  games  last 
week  to  bring  their  record  back  up  to  the  .500 
level. 

In  the  first  game  against  Snider  a  six-run  fourth 
inning  carried  the  Trojans  to  a  7-5  win.  Junior 
Bernie  Kampschmidt  turned  In  a  fine  relief 
pitching  performance  as  he  fanned  eight  batters  in 
three  innings.  Junior  Kirk  Williams,  who  was  the 
starting  pitcher,  led  the  hitting  attack  with  two 
hits. 

Elmhurst  won  it's  second  game  in  a  row  the 
next  day  against  New  Haven  at  their  field.  Again  it 
was  a  big  fourth  inning  that  did  it:  this  time  a 
four-run  inning.  Juniors  Eric  Russell  and  Bernie 
Kampschmidt  provided  the  offense  with  two  hits 
and  RBI's  a  piece  while  sophomores  Dave  Camp- 
bell and  Lynn  Brown  did  the  pitching. 

Northrop,  ranked  20th  in  the  state,  slopped  the 
Trojans  5-3  at  City  Utilities  Park.  Bases  loaded, 
walks  in  the  last  inning  cost  the  game  to  the 
Trojans. 

Elmhurst  lost  a  big  chance  to  break  the  game 
wide  open   in  the  fourth   inning.   Russell  led  off 


with  a  single  to  greet  reliever  and  eventual  winner 
Potts  of  Northrop.  Williams  followed  with  a  single. 
Junior  Ken  Butler  walked  to  load  the  bases.  Back 
to  back  singles  by  Kampschmidt  and  senior  Jeff 
Hibler  drove  home  two  runs.  The  bases  were  still 
loaded  with  no  outs.  Junior  Greg  Warden  then 
lined  hard  to  the  shortstop  who  flipped  the  ball  to 
the  third  basemen  doubling  up  Butler.  Junior  Phil 
Hershberger  popped  up  to  the  shortstop  ending 
the  rally. 

Six  unearned  runs  in  the  last  inning  gave 
Elmhurst  an  8-2  win  over  South  and  an  eventual 
split  in  their  doubleheader.  A  two-run  triple  by 
Kirk  Williams  was  the  key  blow  in  that  big  inning. 

The  second  game  was  all  South  Side,  however, 
as  they  romped  to  an  11-1  victory.  Kevin 
Himmel-Haver  struck  out  eleven  batters  picking  up 
the  victory  for  South  while  Clarence  Elliot 
pounded  out  a  hompr  and  a  triple  collecting  five 
RBI's  for  a  winning  cause. 

The  Baseball  Team  will  hit  the  road  this  week 
starting  with  a  doubleheader  against  Homestead  at 
their  fteld.  This  will  be  followed  by  games  at  East 
Noble  and  Warsaw, 


meet. 

Warsaw  took  team  honors 
with  a  total  of  160  strokes  while 
Elmhurst  hit  the  ball  173  times. 
Dave  Kissell  and  Denny  Hepler. 
both  of  Warsaw  tied  (or  medalist 
honors  with  a  38.  However,

because  he  didn't  putt  out  on 
the  9th  hole.  Other  scores  for

Place  sixth  in  relays 


Tracksters  bow  to  Cadets 


by  Male  Finlayson 

Last  week  the  Trojans  lost  a 
triangular  meet  to  Concordia  by 
6  points  while  topping  Bishop 
Dwenger  by  25.  The  Elmhurst 
trackmen  also  competed  in  the 
48th  annual  Kokomo  Relays  last 
Saturday.  The  Trojans,  who  have 
won  the  event  for  the  last  three 
years  only,  managed  to  earn  17 
points  and  a  sixth  place  finish. 
Brown  runs  50  flat 

Senior  Nate  Brown  toured 
the  440  in  50  seconds  flat  for 
the  best  area  clocking  to  date, 
bettering  his  previous  standard 
by  a  half  second.  Brown  was  the 
meet's  twin  winner  as  he  also 
won  the  220-yard  dash  with  a 
time  of  23.0.  Junior  Jeff 
Morches  won  the  low  hurdles  m 
a  time  of  21-6  while  senior  Ron 
Talley  captured  the  highs  in  15.6 
seconds. 

Senior  Chris  Johnson  placed 
first  in  the  880  with  a  fine  time 
of  2:01.7.  Junior  Ernie  Essex 
won  The  long  jump  with  a  jump 


of     20    feet    6    inches,    junior 
Randy    Rehrer  earned  the  blue 
ribbon    in    the  high-jump  as  he 
went    6    feet    2    inches 
Seniors  aid  cause 

Aiding  the  Trojan  cause  were 
seniors  Nate  Brown  and  John 
Hughes  who  combined  their 
efforts  with  juniors  Mike  Lewis 
and  Harold  Fowlkes  to  win  the 
880-yard  relay  with  a  time  of 
1:33.1. 

In  the  Kokomo  meet.  Brown 
won  the  100-yard  dash  with  a 
modest  time  of  10,3.  while 
junior  Mike  Lewis  placed  fifth 
with  a  10.9  clocking.  Brown 
used  most  of  this  energy  in  his 
trial  heat  where  he  breezed  to  a 
swift  9.9  time.  Juniors  Mike 
Lewis  and  Harold  Fowlkes 
passed  the  baton  with  seniors 
John  Hughes  and  Nate  Brown  to 
finish  second  in  the  440-yard 
relay. 

The  same  quarter  later  com- 
bined to  place  fifth  in  the  sprint 


medley  relay.  Junior  Ken  Swick 
finished  fourth  in  the  lOOO-yard 
run  with  a  time  of  2:36  while 
junior  Randy  Rehrer  placed 
fourth  in  the  high  jump  with  a 
jump  of  5  feet  10  inches.

Riders  offer  chance 

The  participants  will  be  entering  to 
give  every  child  a  chance  to  be  born 
whole  and  happy,  reports  Mrs.  Jean 
Lehman,  local  director  of  the  March  of

This  program  is  most  likely  a 
take-off  on  the  Walk  for  Development 
which  has  been  so  successful  in  recent 
years.  The  format  for  taking  in  money 
is  the  same.  As  in  the  Walk,  each  bike 
rider  gets  sponsors  to  pledge  so  much 
money  for  each  mile  he  or  she  rides. 

As  incentive  for  the  participants, 
many  prizes  will  be  given  out  to  the 
people  with  the  highest  sponsorship. 
Pit  stops  will  be  made  every  ten  laps 
tor  the  sake  of  rest  and  checking 
mileage  covered. 
Two  sessions  provide  convenience 

Registration  for  the  morning  ses-

Registration  for  the  afternoon  session 
is  from  1  thru  2  with  the  main  event 
getting  underway  at  2:15  p.m. 

Bike  races  between  the  WLYV 
"Lyv  Guys"  will  start  off  both  sessions 
while  The  Floodtide  and  The  Talismen 
will  provide  rock  entertainment.  Re-

Junior  reaches  top  sales 


Junior  Jeanne  Hilgemann  recently 
attended  the  Junior  Achievement  is  Free 
Enterprise  Awards  Banquet  held  at  the 
cohseum  on  May  1  and  mas  awarded  a 
trophy  for  selling  S500  worth  of  her 
cornparjy's  product. 

"We  had  a  dinner  and  there  were  some 
speakers.  They  told  us  aijoul  junior  achieve- 
ment and  that  the  Fort  Wayne  JA  center 
ranked  second  in  the  nation  They  gave  out 
awards  and  had  trophies  for  the  S500  sales 
club  which  is  what  I  got.  Those  S250  sales 
club  and  the  SlOO  sales  club  had  to  stand 
.  .  after  that  everyone  in  my  entire 
company  was  standmgi"  stated  Jeanne. 
Tradewinds  makes  plaques 

Jeanne's  company  was  Tradewinds  and 
was  sponsored  by  Phelps  Dodge  Copper 
Products  Indiana  Rod  and  Wire  Mill.  The 
product  the  company  made  and  sold  was 
copper  wire  schooner  plaques  They  sold  for 
S6  and  the  loial  sales  Tradewinds  made  was 
$5,000  "We  gave  a  great  big  plaque  thai 
was  a  lot  fancier  to  President  !\ii«on  and  we 
got  a  letter  back  from  him  thanking  us." 

This  15  Jeanne's  second  year  of  activity  in 
Junior  Achie 


of  the  year,  we  had  lo'organize  and  give  our 
company  a  name.  Our  advisers  had  sugges- 
tionsfor  what  product  we  were  to  make  and 
we  decided  from  them  The  second  meeting 
we  elected  officers  and  I  was  elected 
company's  treasurer.  We  ordered 
materials  and  the  next  week  we  started 
production.  Sometimes  we  have  board  m 
ings  to  discuss  ways  of  improving 
production," 
Achiever  receives  stock 

At  the  first  meeting,  each  achiever  gets 
some  stock  and  this  lets  them  sit  on  the 
board  ol  directors.  Each  member  then  gets 
three  shares  of  stock  to  sell  for  SI , 

Money  from  the  stocks  is  used  to  start 
their  business.  At  the  end  of  the  year  the 
company  gives  the  holder  back  their  $1 
investment  and  a  dividend  if  there  is  a 
profit,  "We  gave  back  a  15%  dividend  so 
everyone  who  bought  stock  got  back  51,15, 
Our  stock  was  really  worth  S19.87  but  the 
money  was  divided  up  according  to  the 
hours  worked  as  a  bonus  to  the  company 
members.  My  check  was  worth  $204.55, 
Altogether  our  company  sold  S92  worth  of 
stock."  Jeanne  continued. 


Students  vote  for  prom  queen 


Other  events  that  Jeanne,  along  with 
other  JA  members,  participated  in  were  the 
Jamco  Junior  Achievement  Midwest  Con- 
ference held  at  French  Lcck.  Indiana  "We 
were  there  for  three  days  and  two  nights. 
My  sponsoring  firm  paid  my  way.  There  was 
one  representative  from  each  of  the  70 
companies  from  the  Fort  Wayne  Center  and 
from  different  companies  all  over  the 
midwest  "' 

"There  were  workshops  we  met  in  and 
shared  our  ideas.  They  were  pretty  strict 
because  they  gave  awards  for  the  best 
delegations.  There  were  three  categories 
according  to  the  s'lie  of  the  dele^tion  and 
the  Fort  Wayne  Delegation  won  for  the 
largest  delegation.  To  win  we  had  to  have 
good  manners,  participation  and  attitude,"' 
Company  displays  product 

Junior  Achievers  went  to  the  Chicago 
Trade  Fair  and  the  Museum  of  Science  and 
Industry  also.  While  at  the  trade  fair,  they 
had  a  booth  displaying  products  and  got  to 
see  other  products  from  other  JA  centers. 

"Junior  achievement  is  a  good  chance  to 
learn  about  the  tree  enterprise  system  and  it 
gives  you  good  business  experience.  You  can 
meet  important  people  and  even  earn  a  little 
bit  of  moneyi''  concluded  Jeanne.

'Mo  tor  head  City' 


Youth  disrupt  Foster  Park 


by  Jayne  Langmeyer 

Fort  Wayne  youths  recently  met  with 
Mayor  Ivan  Lebamoff  to  discuss  plans  to 
eliminate  problems  at  Foster  Park,  They  also 
presented  to  him  a  list  of  suggestions  which 
they  believed  would  alleviate  the  distur- 
bances. 

Sunday  a'  'he  park  is  a  favorite  pastime  for  many 
Fort  Wayne  and  surrounding  area  youths.  Many 
appreciate  the  social  advantages  it  offers  and  an 
escape  from  a  routine  week.  Homrever,  some  people 
are  stretching  a  good  thing  too  far  and  marring  many 
of  the  park's  facilities. 

The  "Sunday  Races"  are  becoming  a  weekly 
ordeal.  A  cruise  through  the  park  takes  approximate- 
ly a  half  hour  because  the  entire  line  of  traffic  is 
waiting  for  everyone  ahead  of  them  to  "spin  their 
tires  and  burn  rubber"  (or  whatever  the  current  cliche 
is). 
Crowd  hinders  drivers 

If  you  don't  co-operate  with  the  large  crowd  of 
spectators  you're  in  for  a  surprise.  You  may  have  a 
dozen  or  so  bodies  blocking  your  path,  your  car 
doors  opened  without  warning  or  a  few  kids  jumping 
on  the  hood  of  your  car.  Whatever  happens,  you  very 
seldom  drive  through  the  park  unnoticed. 

The  group  of  youths  meeting  with  the  Mayor 
listed  approximately  14  suggestions  for  improving  the 


situation  in  the  park.  One  of  these  included  a 
half-mile  drag  strip.  This  would  provide  the  "motor- 
heads"  with  somewhere  to  release  their  mechanical 
wonders.  This  would  eliminate  the  noise,  odor  and  all 
around  nuisance  at  the  park. 
Youths  offer  suggestions 

They  also  suggested  widening  the  road  from  the 
tennis  courts  to  the  second  pavilion.  However,  when 
the  spring  fever  dies  and  fewer  people  are  visiting  the 
park  this  extra  road  space  would  be  useless.  Also,  a 
park  is  primarily  a  place  for  quiet  afternoons  and 
evenings  rather  than  just  another  location  for  our 
worst  pollutants. 

Many  of  the  suggestions  listed  were  relevant  for 
Foster  Park .  They  sited  a  need  for  additional 
restrooms.  trash  barrels  and  bicycle  trails.  With  the 
current  bicycling  trend,  and  the  number  of  automo- 
biles on  the  road,  it  is  becoming  more  hazardous  to 
both  drivers  and  riders. 

The  Mayor  suggested  closing  the  park  to  all  motor 
vehicles  on  Sunday  afternoons  and  evenings.  The 
group  of  youths  objected  to  his  proposal  because 
they  believed  many  people  enjoyed  driving  through 
Foster  Park  to  "show  off  their  cars,  wax  their  cars 
and  to  sit  on  them  while  they  listen  to  tapes." 

These  advantages  seem  somewhat  trivial  to  some 
of  us  and  hopefully  the  advantages  are  hidden. 
Whatever  the  outcome  may  be,  perhaps  the  serenity 
of  the  park  will  be  restored  and  quiet  Sunday 
afternoons  in  the  park  are  just  around  the  corner.

Juvenile  crime  survey 
shows  statistics  wrong 

Juvenile  delinquency,  a  major  source  of  crime  in  America  has 
become  an  increasingly  wide  spread  problem. 

A  suprising  fact  drawn  from  recent  lesearch  is  that  delinquency  is 
not  confined  to  slower  class  slum  males.  Instead,  girls  have 
accounted  for  a  large  amount  of  the  crimes  committed  by  youth. 

In  an  article  in  the  National  Observer,  an  Illinois  study  using  over 
3,100  teenagers  from  14  to  18  years  old,  asked  each  person  through 
anonymous  questionalres  about  their  participation  in  crime. 

Although  girls  still  rank  below  males  in  crime,  they  show  more 
delinquency  than  officials  expected.  Joseph  Puntil,  director  of  the 
survey,  said,  "For  every  type  of  delinquency  measured,  girls 
reported  a  much  higher  rate  of  involvement  than  officials  records 
had  led  us  to  expect." 

The  survey  all  but  destroyed  the  theory  of  slums  breeding  crime. 
It  claims  equal  distribution  of  delinquency  among  blacks,  whites, 
rich  or  poor.  Puntil  claims  that  the  only  reason  for  male,  lower  class 
youth  carrying  this  reputation  is  because  they  are  more  likely  to  be 
arrested, 

The  survey  concluded:  "Although  there  is  little  difference  in 
actual  delinquent  behavior,  we  know  from  official  statistics  that 
economically  deprived  youngsters  —  both  white  and  minority-group 
adolescents  —  run  a  much  higher  risk  of  being  arrested  for  the 
delinquency." 

The  most  common  acts  admitted  were  cheating  in  school,  73  per 
cent,  with  64  per  cent  admitting  drinking  alcoholic  beverages. 

The  commonly  accepted  fact  that  slums  are  crime  ridden  may 
still  be  true  but  all  indications  show  that  no  matter  which  "side  of 
the  tracks"  you're  raised  on,  crime  is  threatening  everyone. 


Mental  hospitals  used  to  be 
horrible  dark  places  where  the 
insane  were  beaten  and  uncared 
for.  These  levels  have  changed 
considerably  lately,  but  occa- 
sional reports  are  published  that 
point  out  patients  are  still 
abused  in  somejnstitutions. 

As  a  test  to  find  out  how  well 
hospitals  are  run,  men  and 
women  volunteered  to  be  com- 
mitted to  mental  hospitals.  They 
were  all  sane,  but  they  were 
involved  in  an  experiment.  The 
experiment  was  to  see  how  well 
psychiatrists  could  distinguish 
the  normal  from  the  sick. 

Their  experiences,  reported  in 
the  "Science  Journal",  clearly 
showed  that  once  inside  the 
hospital  walls,  everyone  is 
judged  insane. 

"Patient"  relays  "sickness" 

For  three  years,  the 
"patients",  five  men  and  three 
women,  spent  an  average  of  19 
days  in  a  dozen  institutions, 
private  and  public.  These  were 
located  in  New  York,  California, 
Pennsylvania,  Oregon  and  Dela- 
ware. Each  told  doctors  he  kept 
hearing  voices  that  said  words 
like  "empty",  "hollow",  and 
"void"  suggesting  the-  patient 
found  his  life  nieaningless.

I  he  group  of  volunteers  were 
sure  that  they  would  be  found 
out,  but  they  were  not. 
Psychiatrists  diagnosed  the  cases 
as'  schizophrenic  and  manic 
depression. 

(experimenters  act  normal 

Once  inside  the  hospitals,  the 
individuals  acted  normal  and 
tried  to  convince  doctors  they 
should  be  released.  Their  efforts 
were  to  no  avail;  the  staff  mem- 
bers interpreted  everything  they 
did  in  terms  of  the  original 
diagnosis. 

The  only  people  who  realized 

the  experimenters  were  normal 
were  some  of  the  patients. 
"You're  not  crazy."  said  one 
patient,  "You're  a  journalist  or  a 
professor.  You're  checking  up 
on  the  hospital." 

Professor  leads  experiment 

Dr.  David  L.  Rosenhan,  a 
professor  of  psychology  and  law 
at  Stanford  University,  was  the 
leader  of  the  group  of  experi- 
mentors.  Rosenhan  concluded 
from  his  experiences,  "In  a 
psychiatric  hospital,  the  place  is 
more  important  than  the  person, 
If  you're  a  patient,  you  must  be 
crazy." 

I  nstances  of  abuse  ana 
brutality  were  witnessed  by  the 
group.  One  patient  was  beaten 
for  approaching  an  attendant 
and  saying.  "I  like  you," 


Patients  lack  existance 

Patients  are  suOjected  to  a 
depersonalized  and  helplessness 
atmosphere.     The     groijp     wit- 


nessed cases  in  which  patients 
were  treated  like  they  didn't 
exist  as  people.  One  such  nurse 
who  casually  opened  her  blouse 
to  adjust  her  brassiere  in  the 
midst  of  the  ward  full  of  men. 


"One  did  not  have  tlie  sense  sne 
was  being  seductive."  Rosenhan 
said,  "She  just  didn't  notice  us." 

From  fellow  patients  the 
group  quickly  heard  they  were 
caught  up  in  kind  of  a  Catch-22 
paradox.  "Never  tel  I  a  doctor 
that  you're  well,"  said  one 
patient.  "He  won't  believe  you. 

That's  called  a  flight  into  health. 
Tell  him  you're  still  sick,  but 
you're  feeling  a  lot  better.  Thats 
called  insight." 

Horrors  still  happen 

Those  who  have  read  "One 
Flew  Over  the  Cuckoo  Nest,"  by 
Ken  Kesey  may  be  surprised  to 
find  that  the  horrors  described 
within      still      really      happen 

"You've  got  to  be  sick  and 
acknowledge  that  you're  sick,' 
says  Rosenhan,  "to  be  consider- 
ed well  enough  to  be  released." 

Rosenhan  and  his  group  bear 
no  ill  will  against  the  institutions 
they  saw.  The  staff's  behavior, 
they  feel,  was  controlled  by  the 
situation,  not  always  by  personal 
malice    or    stupidity.    Alternate 

forms  of  therapy,  they  hope, 
will  soon  be  considered  for  bet- 
ter efficiency  in  helping  the 
disturbed.  Community  health 
centers  and  crisis  intervention 
will  increasingly  replace  the  hos- 
pitals hopefully,  in  years  to 
come.

Game  gains  new  popularity 


A  new  pastime  for  such 
celebrities  as  Playboy's  Hugh 
Hefner.  Aristotle  Onassis.  Diana 
Ross,  John  Wayne.  Jill  St,  John 
and  countless  more  is  the  board 
game,  backgammon. 

Backgammon,  "the  game  of 
kings,"  is  so  old  that  Egyptian 
Pharaohs  were  buried  with  their 
game  board,  King  Tut  among 
them.  It  was  even  played  by 
Rome's  Nero  and  a  crude  version 
was  enjoyed  by  ancient  Aztecs 
and  Iroquois  Indians. 
Game  proves  popular 

Many  people  have  become 
"addicted"  to  backgammon.  In 
the  Balkan  and  Baltic  states 
everyone  plays.  In  the  rest  of  the 
world  the  game  has  usually  been 
associated  with  the  rich.  But 
since  1964  biannual  tourna- 
ments have  been  established  for 
skilled  players.  In  posh  private 
clubs  in  New  York  you  can  learn 
to  play  backgammon,  as  well  as 
in  Bel-Air,  Hollywood.  Los 
Angeles,  and  Beverly  Hills. 

The      game      is      supposedly 


simple  to  learn.  Two  people  sit 
opposite  each  other  at  a  board- 
with  24  triangular  points.  Each 
has  1 5  playing  pieces,  check 
er-like  discs,  called  counters  or 
men.  They  play  alternately, 
moving  the  counters  around  the 
points  according  to  the  numbers 
shown  by  a  roll  of  the  dice.  A 
player  may  advance  two  coun- 
ters at  a  time,  honoring  the  two 
numbers  shown  by  the  dice.  A 
typical  game  calls  for  about  50 
rolls  of  the  dice.  If  a  double 
number  appears,  a  player  can 
make  four  moves.  When  a  player 
finally  moves  all  his  counters 
around  the  points  and  "home," 
he  may  begin  to  remove  them 
from  the  board.  The  first  to 
remove  all  of  his  counters  wins. 
Wagering  sets  pace 

The  greatest  excitement  of 
this  fast  paced  game  is  created 
by  wagering.  In  a  Jet  Set  game, 
hundreds  of  thousands  of  dollars 
are  often  bet  and  exchanged.  A 
player  can  double  the  bet  when- 
ever he  wishes  during  the  game 


and  the  bet  can  be  redoubled 
again  and  again.  Because  back 
gammon  requires  skill,  not  luck, 
there  is  a  tremendous  amount  of 
ego  satisfaction  when  you  oui 
maneuver  your  foe,  not  to  mer 
tion  the  great  financial  gain, 
Players  exist  whose  sole  income 
is  from  backgammon. 


Indian  art  reveals 
ancient  minatures 

bv  Janet  Bell 

The  Amencan  Indian  has  long  been  ignored  and  mistreated  by 
socely.  Just  m  recent  yea.s  ha»e  they  began  to  gam  sell-pride  and 
struggle  for  their  suppressed  rights  as  American  citizens  The  Indian 
population  possess'  some  of  the  most  talented  artists,  sculptures  and 
craftsmen  of  our  time 

One  uch  form  of  Indian  art  called  the  "minature"  Is  India's  most 
developed  form  of  painting.  These  paintings  were  bound  in  albums 
and  were  important  In  the  East  -  from  the  16th  century  onward  - 
as  panel  painting  in  the  West. 

All  Indian  court  art  whether  Muslim  or  Hindu  was  full  of  richness. 
Because  minature  painting  was  the  court  art  of  excellence,  a 
countless  number  of  man  hours  were  spent,  by  people  with  Inflnate 
leisure. 

All  the  customs,  patterns  of  dress  and  etiquette  ate  preserved  on 
these  ancient  brilliantly  colored  and  gilded  scraps  of  paper.  Though 
the  historical  divisions  of  Indian  minature  painting  are  bewildering 
to  most  viewers,  a  medely  of  schools  and  styles,  the  pictures 
themselves  are  not. 

The  most  extreme  emotion  that  minaturists  normally  allowed 
their  figures  was  the  decorative  loneliness  of  palace  ladies  waiting  for 
their  lovers.  One  of  the  pleasures  of  Indiana  minalures  lies  in  how 
nature  is  preserved  in  all  it's  glory. 

In  this  balance  of  what  is  organic  and  what  is  structured  lies  in 
the  unique  mysticism  of  classical  Indian  minature  painting.

Temptations  perform 
for  Fort  Wayne  crowd 


by  Ron  Talley 

Wednesday,  May  4,  was  a 
soulful  night  in  Fori  Wayne,  It 
was  the  evening  the  Temptations 
were  to  Shine  On  in  concert  at 
the  Coliseum.  Performing  to  a 
good  crowd,  the  show  started 
off  with  an  amateur  group  of 
three  beautiful  sisters  laying 
some  heavyweight  soul  on  the 
audience. 

Taking  the  fans  a  little  bit 
higher  were  the  sounds  of  the 
Spinners  and  their  newest  mem- 
ber. Bringing  back  their  late  50's 
and  early  60's  hits,  the  Spinners 
stole  the  souls  of  everyone  at- 
tending. They  presented  a  short 
comedy  show  and  an  immitation 
of  some  of  the  great  black 
singers  in  the  history  of  soul 
music. 

They  ended  their  perfor- 
mance with  a  visit  to  the  crowd 
planting  kisses  on  ihe  yountj 
ladies  present.  The  Spinners  had 


the  audience  well  prepared  for 
the  appearance  of  the  Tempta- 
tions. They  entered  in  black 
jump  suits  with  silver  linings  and 
white  shoes.  The  group  brought 
back  their  greatest  tunes  with 
dynamic  voices. 

Bringing  the  show  to  a  climax 
was  Ihe  performance  of  their 
current  hit  single.  Masterpiece. 
This  brought  the  souled  out 
crush  oi  people  to  the  front  of 
the  stage.  They  ended  their  show 
with  the  introduction  of  them- 
selves and  then  swung  into 
Psychedelic  Shack  as  the  crowd 
went  wild. 

The  Temptations  finally  sent 
the  enthusiastic  mass  home  with 
the  satisfaction  of  having  seen  a 
great  performance.

Sophomore  Penny  Ress 
recently  won  a  scholarship  to 
Israel  sponsored  by  the  Jewish 
Federation  in  Fort  Wayne.  The 
Vearly  program  is  offered  to 
those  students  of  high  school 
age,  either  in  the  Temple  or  the 
Synagogue. 

"To  be  eligible,  we  had  to 
write  an  essay  about  why  we 
wanted  to  go  and  then  we  were 
interviewed  by  the  head  of  the 
Federation.  I'm  interested  in  the 
experience  of  living  and  working 
with  people  in  a  foreign 
country." 

Student  departs  in  June 

Penny,  along  with  40  other 
students  from  the  United  States 
will  leave  from  New  York  on 
June  26  and  will  return  to  the 
United  States  the  first  week  of 
August.  "Meeting  all  the  other 
kids  in  New  York  will  be  nice," 
remarked  Penny,  "but  once  we 
land    in    Israel,  we'll  be  meeting

Trojans  whip  Homestead 


Elmhurst's  Trojans  finished  a  successful  week  in 
baseball  bv  taking  both  ends  of  a  double-header 
from  Homestead  at  their  own  field. 

The  identical  7-1  victories  against  Homestead 
and  a  2-1  city  series  victory  over  North  Side 
helped  drown  out  the  bitter  18-0  defeat  suffered 
at  the  hands  of  Bishop  Luers  last  Tuesday. 

The  1 8-0  drubbing  at  the  hands  of  Bishop  Luers 
has  to  rank  among  the  worst  games  in  Elmhurst 
baseball  history.  Luers  had  their  first  city  series 
victory  of  the  season  handed  to  them  on  a  silver 
platter  as  no  less  than  ten  errors  were  committed 
by  Trojan  players.  Of  the  eighteen  runs  scored, 
only  one  was  earned.  The  big  inning  was  the 
second  when  an  incredible  twelve  unearned  runs 
crossed  the  plate  giving  Luers  a  fairly  safe  15-0 
lead, 
Luers  pitches  shut-out 

Credit  has  to  be  given  to  Chuck  Freiberger  of 
Bishop  Luers  who  pitched  a  fine  one-hit  shut-out. 

In  the  Thursday  game  against  North  Side,  the 
Trojans  buckled  down  and  played  the  kind  of  ball 
they're  capable  of,  winning  2-1.  Junior  Kirk 
Williams  turned  in  another  fine  performance  on 
the  mound  by  going  the  distance  and  limiting 
North  Side  to  lour  hits. 
Trojans  improve  record 

The  game,  which  went  nine  innings,  was  finally 
ended  when  senior  John  Adams  and  sophomores, 


Lynn  Brown  and  Dave  Campbell,  all  singled 
bringing  home  the  winning  run  for  Elmhurst. 
Junior  Eric  Russell  had  a  fine  day  with  the  bat  as 
he  collected  three  hits. 

The  double  header  sweep  from  Homestead 
capped  off  a  3-1  week  lifting  Elmhurst's  record  to 
7-5. 

In  the  first  game,  two  runs  batted  in  apiece  for 
Russell,  and  junior  Ken  Butler  carried  Elmhurst  to 
a  7-1  victory.  Each  of  these  players  also  got  a 
triple.  Combing  tor  a  four-hitter  were  Brown  and 
junior  Bernre  Kamoschmidt, 

C-ampbell  plays  well 

In  the  second  game,  Dave  Campbell  redeemed 
himself  for  his  blunders  against  Luers  by  putting 
on  a  one  man  show.  On  the  mound,  he  fanned  14 
Spartans  going  all  the  way  for  a  superb  four-hitter 
at  bat  he  collected  three  hits  and  drove  in  two 
runs.  Sophomore  Les  Sorgen  also  added  two  hits 
toward  the  second  7-1  win  of  the  day. 

This  afternoon,  there  will  be  a  city  series  game 
against  Dwenger  followed  by  a  doubleheader 
versus  Huntington  tomorrow,  all  games  at 
McMillen.  Also  at  McMillen  is  a  game  with  Wayne 
preceded  by  the  completion  of  an  earlier  game. 
Rounding  out  the  schedule  is  an  important  city 
series  game  against  Northrop  on  Thursday  at  City 
Utilities  Park. 


Hard 


Junior  Bernie  Kampschmidt  leans  into  the  ball  as  he  drives  it  into 
the  outfield  during  a  recent  baseball  game.  Last  weekend  the  Trojan 
team  defeated  the  Homestead  Spartans  twice  by  a  score  of  7-1  and 
this  weekend  they  are  scheduled  to  meet  the  Huntington  Vikings.

Girls  yet  to  win  meet 


Following  a  new  addition  in 
athletic  ruling,  girls  in  the  Fort 
Wayne  Community  Schools  may 
participate  in  competitive  sports 
and  a  few  non-physical  contact 
sports. 

Elmhurst  has  recently  formed 
a  girl's  tennis  team  consisting  of 
eleven  members.  These  girls  are 
seniors  Becky  Shaw  and  Terri 
Lipp.  juniors  Peggy  O'Connor, 
Sue  Myers,  Val  Hart.  Sally  Hin- 
ton,  Anna  Krieg  and  sophmores 
Marty  Kelly,  Bonnie  Carrion, 
Deanna  Whitman  and  Mary 
Omo.  Also  assisting  the  team  is 
manager,  senior  Peggy  Blossar. 
Peggy  stated,  "I  take  care  of  all 
the  equipment  for  the  team  and 
referee  the  games  as  well." 
Team  loses  meet 

The  tennis  team  conducted 
their  first  meet  with  Northrop 
on  April  25.  They  were  beaten 
by  a  score  of  6-1  with  only  a 
single  win  by  players  Peggy 
O'Connor  and  Becky  Shaw.  Elm- 
hurst was  defeated  a  second  time 
as  they  played  Wayne  High 
School  with  a  5-2  loss.  Senior 
Terri  Lipp  won  a  singles  game 
against  Pat  Floyd  (8-5)  and 
Becky     and     Peggy     again    were 


victorious  as  they  beat  their 
opponents  in  doubles  by  a  score 
of  8-6.  The  team  has  recently 
cancelled  two  games  due  to  bad 
weather  and  will  reschedule 
them  for  a  later  date.  The  games 
scheduled  for  the  rest  of  the 
year  will  be  on  Monday,  May  14 
against  South  Side  and  May  16 
against  Concordia  at  Concordia's 
home  post.  When  asked  how  the 
team  was  progressing,  coach 
Doswell  stated,  "There  are  weak- 
nesses in  the  team  this  year  but 
considering  this  is  only  the  first 
team,  we  are  building  it  up  for  a 
winning  one  next  year,"  There 
will    be    all    but   two   returning 


The  team  practices  two  or 
three  times  a  week  and  every 
Saturday  morning  at  Waynedale 
Park,  Player  Becky  Shaw  said, 
"It's  hard  work  but  we  all  enjoy 
it  and  if  we  don't  always  win  we 
just  try  a  little  harHpr  " 

Tennis  is  currently  the  only 
competitive  sport  among  girls 
but  there  is  the  coming 
possibility  of  a  volleyball  team 
and  a  basketball  team.  Women 
and  girls  are  becoming  much 
more  involved  in  sports  and 
though  there  has  been  doubt 
expressed,  they  are  determined 
to  do  their  best. 


43,  Jeff  Greene  had  a  44, 
and  John  Wright  came  in  at 
46. 

The  reason  for  the  high 
scores  this  past  week  were 
in  part  due  to  the  cool 
weather  and  the  strong 
winds. 
Snider  ties  Wayne 

Snider's  Panthers,  who 
just  recently  nipped  the 
Trojan  golf  team  by  one 
shot,  put  together  a  team 
total  of  332  to  tie  Wayne  in 
the  16th  annual  city  tourna- 
ment. 

However.  Snider  was 
declared  the  winner  because 
of  the  nevi/  fifth  man  rule.

bureau  provides  aid 


by  Yvonne  Getz 

A  committee  recently  established  in 
the  Fort  Wayne  area  is  the  Youth 
Service  Bureau  (Y.S.B.).  An  indepen- 
dent agency,  it  has  designed  itself  to 
aid  teenagers  and  their  parents  in 
dealing  with  situations  concerning 
counseling:  legal,  medical,  educational 
3nd  other  crisises. 

The  bureau  was  formed  after  the 
passage  of  a  Law  Enforcement  and 
Assistance  Act  in  1968.  The  Act 
provided  members  of  Fort  Wayne  with 
the  funds  to  set  up  a  center  and  start 
new  projects  enforcing  the  beliefs  of 
'he  agency.  Executive  director  Dave 
Lambert  stated,  "At  the  time  the  Law 
^vas  passed  juvenile  delinquency  rates 
were  increasing  and  detterring  youth. 
Our  agency  was  founded  to  solve  these 
problems  and  to  prevent  further 
lieterioration." 
Student  joins  board 

Junior  John  Davis  who  recently 
became  a  member  of  the  Board  of 
Directors  stated,'  "I  went  to  the 
Bureau,  because  I  was  having  problems 
snd  gradually  I  became  mterested  in 
""e  program  and  wanted  to  help."  The 
J.S.B.  is  currently  located  on  221 1  S. 
Calhoun  Street.  Teenagers  may  call  or 
Mme  in  and  discuss  their  problems 
>''ith  staff  and  volunteer  workers. 

Meetings  are  every  third  Monday  of 
'he  month  where  the  group  assembles 
=nd  discusses  current  problems  with 
l^ach  other  and  suggest  new  approaches 
'or  the  agency.  Sophomore  Cindy 
°fadtmiller  attended  the  last  meeting 
^nd  commented,  "We  arrived  at  the 
Meeting  where  a  guest  speaker  was 
■"Ifoduced  to  us  and  then  we  were 
^parated    into   groups.   We   discussed 


subjects   such   as   truancy,   drugs  and 
others.      It     was     an     interesting     ex- 
perience." 
Counsels  set  in  schools 

The  committee  is  selling  up 
counsels  in  many  schools  in  the  Allen 
County  districts.  Volunteer  workers 
known  as  street  walkers  are  sent  into 
-parts  of  the  city  noted  with  the 
highest  crime  rate.  Their  job  is  to 
mmgle  among  teenagers  in  those  dis- 
tricts and  get  them  to  communicate 
and  solve  their  problems.  "We  want 
them  to  be  able  to  talk  to  us  instead  of 
using  violence  to  ease  their  frustra- 
tions," replied  John.

Senior  brothers  exhibit 
original  photography  display 


Seniors  Pete  and  Dave  Turnley  have 
what  every  photographer  wishes  -  a 
display  all  of  their  own.  The  twins 
have  had  their  photographs  on  display 
at  the  Public  Library  since  the  begin- 
ning ot  April  and  will  continue  until 
the  end  of  May. 

"We  showed  the  pictures  to  the 
director  at  the  library  and  he  thought 
they  were  good  enough,"  Pete  ex- 
plained. The  library  has  such  exhibits 
as  paintings  and  artwork  of  all  kinds 
displayed  for  the  public  periodically, 
"Mostly  they  are  just  pictures  of 
people,"  he  continued. 
Photographers  win  awards 

Both  Dave  and  Pete  are  members  of 
the  Fort  Wayne  Camera  Club.  Dave 
won  the  print  of  the  Year  Award  in 


the  club  which  holds  monthly  con- 
tests. Pete  won  the  Kodak  Medal  of 
Honor  Award  and  both  have  entered 
the  Scholastic  Art  Contest, 

Pete  commented  that  they  have 
been  taking  pictures .  seriously  for 
about  a  year  with  a  Nikon  camera 
which  they  share.  "We  have  a  dark- 
room in  the  basement  with  the  mini- 
mum basic  equipment,"  he  added, 

"If  I  see  somebody  I'd  like  to  take 
a  picture  of  I  either  tbke  the  picture 
first   Of    I    ask    if    I   can  take   it.   The 

reactions  are  generally  confused,"  Pete 

explained. 

Although  Pete  and  Dave  are  plan 

ning     to     attend     the     University    of 

Michigan,    they    are    unsure    of    their 

future  in  photography.

Elections  show  school's 
attitude,  ignorance 


With  the  school  year  closing  last,  students  rarelv  give  thought  to 
next  yedt,  but  in  this  instance  it  is  necessary. 

Students  vote  yearly  on  class  president  who  perform  various 
duties  for  his  class.  The  characteristics  of  these  leaders  are  supposed 
to  indicate  outstanding  qualities  not  found  in  others.  Strangely 
though,  these  leaders  are  chosen  by  a  class  who  barely  knows  the 
nominees'  names  let  alone  their  personalities. 

Elections  have  received  little  publicity,  leaving  the  student  body 
usually  ignorant  about  the  nominees.  Each  class  this  year  was  to 
nominate  class  members  through  mass  nominations.  From  this  list, 
students  further  note  for  the  class  president.  This  process  fails  to 
allow  students  the  right  to  hear  nominees  explain  why  they  want  the 
office  or  if  they  really  do. 

Through  this  means  of  election,  students  naturally  vote  for 
popular  class  members,  rather  than  on  merits  since  they  lack  any 
knowledge  of  personalities  or  qualities. 

Class  elections,  especially  in  the  last  two  years,  have  been 
considered  3  joke  rather  than  a  real  electron.  Previously,  they  were 
held  important  by  all  students.  Great  consideration  was  given  before 
bestowing  any  responsibilities  upon  an  individual.  Consequently,  this 
contributed  to  a  much  more  active  student  body. 

Perhaps  this  current  feeling  of  arogance  towards  school  functions 
will  change  again.  Certainly  nesct  year's  students  must  review  the 
situation  closely  before  electing  its  officers. 


Poll  question 

School  responds  to  prom 


Editor's  Note;  The  following 
article  contains  the  opinion  of 
students  attending  the  Elmhurst 
Prom.  The  "Advance"  intends 
only  to  inform  others  of  its 
success  and  failures. 

"It  was  okay,  for  a  prom," 
seems  to  be  the  general  attitude 
of  most  Trojans  concerning  the 
1973  Junior-Senior  Prori. 

The  major  disappointment  of 
the  evening  was  the  dinner. 
Instead  of  being  served  a  good 
hot  meal,  the  couples  ate  cold 
cuts  and  salads  buffet  style. 
Most  people  considered  this  to 
be  a  real  rip  off  for  the  price 
that  they  had  to  pay,  and  would 
have  rather  gone  to  a  restaurant. 
Also,  there  was  too  much  time 

aiotted  between  the  dinner  and 
the  dance.  Many  found  they  had 
to  roam  around  and  try  to  find 
something  to  do  for  more  than 
an  hour. 

Couples  enjoy  dance 

The  prom  Itself  was  fairly 
successful.  After  standing 
around  at  the  beginning,  many 
couples  relaxed  and  had  a 
relatively  good  time.  Although 
the  band  played  satisfactorily 
for  the  occasion,  the  students 
felt  that  next  year  there  should 
be  a  band  that  played  more 
modern  slow  songs.  Some  of  the 
students  were  disappointed  be- 
cause they  expected  the  band  to 

play    the    theme    song    of    the 

prom,  "Color  My  World",  by 
Chicago. 

Because  the  girls  had  to  spend 
money  for  formal  dresses,  a  lot 
of  them  considered  it  only  fair 
that  boys  must  wear  a  tuxedo  as 
a  suggestion  for  next  year.  Most 
students  liked  the  Hospitality 
Inn  where  the  prom  was  held 
and  thought  it  was  decorated 
nicely. 

Coronation  tacks  excitement 

The  crowning  of  Sarah  Bur- 
gess as  queen  seemed  to  some  as 
uneventful  and  they  believed 
that  there  should  be  something 
added  to  the  coronation  to  make 
It  more  impressive. 

The  major  suggestion  for  next 
year  is  to  have  a  hayride  after 
the   prom   in  place  of  a  dance. 


The  music  by  "Iron  Horse"  was 
good,  but  instead  of  dancing  the 
couples  just  sat  around.  Many 
feel  that  the  after-prom  would 
be  more  fun  next  year  if  the 
students  would  just  loosen  up 
and  dance.  Some  other  sugges- 
tions for  next  year  are  to  be  able 
to  smoke  and  to  not  have  so 
many  chaperones.  Also,  another 
suggestion  made  by  students  was 
to      have      an      mter-school 


Commercials  push  disguise 


By  Sue  Male 

Cigarette  manufacturers  have 
been  banned  for  two  years  from 
pitching  their  wares  on  radio  and 
television.  Recently,  little  cigars 
have  been  advertised  extensively 
by  a  big  tobacco  industry. 
Critics  claim  the  little  cigars  are 
cigarettes  in  disguise.  The  dis- 
pute against  the  R.J.  Reynolds 
tobacco  industry  "little  cigar  or 
cigarette".  Winchester  is  starting 
to  draw  attention  to  the  loop- 
holes of  advertising. 

Although  the  TV  campaign 
claims  Winchester,  "Ain't  no 
cigarette,  it's  a  whole  'nother 
smoke,"  the  linle  cigars  could 
still  be  "hazardous  to  your 
health".  Cigarettes  were  banned 
as  advertising  material  in  accor- 
dance that  they  also  fell  in  the 
category. 

Little  cigars  have  been  on  the 
market  for  50  years.  Brand 
names      "Omega",     "Zig     Zag", 


and  "Trend",  look  less  like 
cigars,  except  for  the  brown 
wrappers,  than  filter-tipped 
cigarettes,  and  are  usually  pro- 
duced and  packaged  (twenty  to 
a  pack)  on  standard  cigarette 
machinery. 

Democratic  Senator,  Frank 
Moss,  of  Utah,  author  of  the  law 
that  snuffed  out  cigarette 
commercials  two  years  ago,  al- 
ready is  drafting  an  amendment 
that  would  treat  little  cigars  as 
cigarettes.  The  plan  will  require 
health  warnings  on  little  cigars 
and  ban  broadcast  advertising  by 
the  manufacturers. 

Winchester  is  currently  using 
an  advertising  loophole  to  push 
Itself  on  the  public.  The  tactics 
used  are  like  that  of  any  other 
business  looking  for  a  break  in 
terms  of  profit. 

When  the  l^v  banned 
cigarette  advertising  Reynolds 
found      another      product      to 


after-prom,  especially  if  many 
promsare  scheduled  on  the  same 
niqht  like  this  year. 

The  success  of  future  proms 
depends    on    the    students    and 

their  interest.  They  will  decide  if 
the  tradition  of  the  prom  will 
continue  and  they  will  decide 
what  changes  are  needed  to 
.nake  the  prom  a  more  enjoyable 


capitalize  on.  R.J.  Reynolds 
Winchester  found  a  profitable 
loophole,  but  it  will  hopefully 
be  closed  soon  for  the  sake  of  all 
advertising. 


School  asks  ideas 
for  upcoming  year 


In  order  to  create  class  unity,  the  administration  is 
presently  asking  for  ideas  from  the  student  body  that  might 
aid  them  for  the  1973-74  school  year. 

A  noticeable  change  has  overcome  the  student  body  in 
the  past  three  to  four  years.  Interests  in  school  and  school 
activities  has  diminished  and  outside  programs  are  be- 
coming increasingly  popular. 

One  suggestion  submitted  was  to  have  a  class  breakfast 
for  the  students  in  the  beginning  of  the  year.  This  would 
enable  students  to  become  more  acquainted  with  his  or  her 
classmates  and  the  faculty  as  well. 

Clubs  welcome  students 

Also  suggested  was  to  have  representatives  from  each 
club  at  registration  in  August.  They  would  be  able  to 
explain  to  students  the  purposes  of  the  club  and  also  its 
activities  during  the  year.  A  sign  up  sheet  would  also  be 
available. 

Inter-club  programs  might  possibly  benefit  the  students 
as  well  as  their  faculty  sponsors.  An  insight  to  the  clubs' 
functions,  its  members  and  its  procedures  would  create 
another  form  of  unity  within  the  student  body. 

Student  guides  at  registration  would  offer  new  students 
a  look  at  Elmhurst  from  a  student's  viewpoint.  Any 
questions  sophomores  or  new  juniors  or  seniors  have  could 
be  answered  by  students  who  have  been  at  Elmhurst  for 
one  or  two  years.  This  would  also  create  closer  ties  between 
students. 


Activities  lack  appeal 

Students  have  complained  that  school  activities  are  so 
"policed"  it  is  not  enjoyable  to  attend  such  functions. 
These  activities  include  dances  and  other  activities  clubs 
plan.  It  is  believed  this  is  the  reason  for  the  apathy  for 
school  functions. 

Also,   the   type   oi  .(tainment   which    students   are 

accustomed  to  cannot  L  leld  in  the  school  or  any  school 
oriented  function. 

Whatever  the  reasons  may  be  for  the  disinterest  in 
school,  the  administration  is  trying  to  overcome  them. 
Suggestions  will  be  welcome  and  students  are  urged  to  give 
their  suggestions.

Diet  Camps  for  young 
gain  national  popularity 

by  Janet  Bell 

This  countrv  needs  much  change  in  its  life  style  but  one  of  the 
serious   health    problems   we  face  is  that  of  being  an  overweight 


A  nev(  approach  to  this  problem  is  the  creation  of  Diet  Camps  for 
children.  These  camps  claim  to  give  young  people  a  wonderful 
summer  but  also  knock  off  20  to  40  pounds  in  the  process. 

Some  camps  use  exercise  machines  which  show  a  lack  of 
creativity  because  overweight  children  need  a  full  schedule  of 
exercise  through  various  sports  activities.  Many  of  these  camps  are 
staffed  with  directors  who  have  had  weight  problems  themselves. 


Speaking  to  Mr,  Miller's  Sociology  class  Friday  was  a  Panel  of  American  Women.  Pictured  from  far 
left  is  Pat  Blackstone  who  spoke  of  her  position  as  a  Protestant.  Gloria  Wilson  seated  next  was  a  black 
woman  who  spoke  of  her  role  in  society.  In  the  center  was  the  moderator  Mrs.  Goldstein.  Jane  Walker 
second  from  right  is  a  Catholic  and  last  was  Carol  Sandler  who  spoke  about  her  situation  as  a  Jewish 
woman.  This  panel  got  together  informally  and  has  been  speaking  to  various  organizations  for  five 


The  children  attending  these  camps  are  given  a  variety  of  dishes. 
A  steady  diet  of  steak  or  hamburger  and  salad  may  be  low  in  calories 
but  it  becomes  monotonous.  A  child  is  put  on  the  kind  of  regimen 
he  can  continue  when  he  gets  home  or  he  won't  stay  slim. 


Class  hosts  panel 

ijv  SueWm+BV'  s^e    went    to     public    schools.     .  JL 


An  important  factor  that  must  be  considered  before  one  sends 
their  children  off  to  Diet  Camps  is  whether  the  child  really  wants  to 
go.  The  decision  should  be  a  joint  one  by  both  parent  and  child. 


Questions  were  leveled  at 
Blacks,  Jews,  Catholics,  and 
protestants  in  a  discussion  Fri- 
day in  Mr.  Glen  Miller's 
sociology  class. 

The  class  hosted  the  Panel  of 
American  Women,  The  modera- 
tor, Mrs,  Goldstein,  stated  that 
none  of  the  women  were  experts 
at  anything,  rather  that  all  were 
very  different  in  background  and 
religion.  Each  of  the  ladies  gave 
a  short  summation  of  their  back- 
ground and  beliefs. 
Jewish  reviews  beliefs 

The  first  was  Carol  Sandler, 
who  is  Jewish.  She  reviewed 
some  of  the  Jewish  beliefs. 
Those  of  the  Jewish  faith  don't 
believe  in  Jesus  as  the  son  of 
God,  but  rather  as  a  rabbi  or 
teacher.  Not  believing  in  a  life 
after  death,  they  instead 
emphasize  life  on  earth.  Mrs. 
Sandler  feels  a  great  need  for 
Israel,  the  native  land  of  the 
Jews,  to  not  only  survive  and 
grow  as  a  strong  country,  but 
also  to  be  constantly  in  the 
minds  of  Jews  all  over  the  world. 
She  feels  this  way  because  so 
many  Jews  have  faced  rejection 
in  all  countries  of  the  world. 

Several  pressures  she  feels 
that  are  felt  by  the  Jewish 
people  is  that  the  Jews  killed 
Jesus.  She  commented  that  she 
knew  she  had  killed  no  one.  She 
went  on  to  say  that  she  disagrees 
with  religion  in  the  school.  The 
question  posed  is,  "Should  child- 
ren who  practice  religions  other 
than  those  of  the  Christian  faith 
be  forced  to  celebrate  Christian 
holidays  and  practices?" 
Mrs.  Sandler  experiences  pressures 

Mrs.-  San'^iler  has  also  ex- 
perienced nrossures  from  sub- 
versive groi  ,>s  who  have  painted 
swastika  einolems  on  the  syna- 
gogue, and  have  expressed  other 
anti-semitic  feelings  through  the 
KKK  and  the  .  John  Birch 
Society. 

Hane  Walker  is  the  product  of 
.1  mixed  Catholic  marriage.  Even 
though  her  mother  was  Catholic, 


went  to  public  schools 
When  she  was  young,  her  church 
preached  Catholicism  as  the  one 
true  faith,  but  things  have 
changed  and  so  have  her  ideas. 
She  mentioned  that  both  she 
and  her  family  feel  very  comfor- 
table with  the  new  Catholicism, 
folk  masses,  masses  in  English 
and  new  attitudes.  She  revealed 
that  controversial  matters  such 
as  birth  control  now  rely  on 
individual  conscience.  The 
church  also  leaves  moral  issues 
to  the  individual  and  his  con- 
science, but  remains  there  to 
help. 
Woman  experiences  segregation 

Gloria  Wilson,  a  black,  grew 
up  in  Kentucky  and  remembers 
quite  vividly  segregation  and  its 
shattering  effects  on  her.  She 
was  bused  before  the  govern- 
ment ordered  busing  for  integra- 
tion. She^traveled  M  miles  both 
ways  to  go  to  a  so-callfed 
"separate  but  equal  school," 
And  when  integration  came,  she 
remembers  the  fear  and  also  the 
law  enforcement  officers  and 
national  guard  who  offered  pro- 
tection. 

Then  there  were  no  black 
history  books,  or  any  sign  that 
blacks  were  equal.  Her  ex- 
periences innocently  have  made 
lasting  impressions.  The  only 
thing  left  to  do  is  to  try  to  save 
others  from  the  hurt  and  build  a 
better  world.  At  the  present 
time  she  works  with  the  United 
Way. 
Family  called  "white  trash" 

Pat  Blackstone  lived  in  the 
south.  She  remembers  being  very 
poor  and  living  in  a  mixed 
neighborhood.  Her  best  friend 
was  a  black  who  lived  next  door. 
Because  she  lived  beside  a  black 
family,  they  were  labeled  "white 
trash." 

Memories  of  signs  labeled 
"white  ladies"  and  "colored 
women"  are  sharp  in  her  mind  — 
things  of  her  lifetime  which  were 
considered  to  be  things  of  the 
past.  Many  things  she  has  never 
questioned  she  is  questioning 
now.    She    is   quite    aware   tnat 


because  she  is  white 
Protestant,  she  will  be  accepted 
without  question.  As  a  member 
of  the  white  majority,  she  feels 
the  need  of  such  a  majority  tO' 
help  the  minorities. 


Diet  Camps  are  a  new  concept  in  weight  loss  and  presently  there 
are  24  slim  down  camps  mostly  located  on  the  East  and  West  coasts.

Sophomore  proves  skill 


by  Tammy  Schecter 

She's  Kanda  Miller,  four  ft. 
seven  in.  Elmhurst  sophomore 
and  ranked  second  in  Indiana 
State  Competitive  Archery. 

"My  father's  been  shooting 
for  years  and  has  encouraged  all 
of  us  to  at  least  try  it.  My  sister 
shot  for  awhile  and  placed  high 
in  state  competition  her  first 
year,  but  decided  she  didn't  like 
it.  My  father,  mother  and 
brother  shoot  regularly, 
though." 
Father  encourages  daughter 

After  shooting  for  one  year, 
Kanda's  father  encouraged  her 
to  enter  state  competition  at  age 
14.  Competing  with  other 
women  in  her  scoring  range, 
Kanda  tied  for  first.  The 
memory  is  still  vivid  in  Kanda's 
mind  as  she  recalled  the  event. 
.  "We  had  a  shoot  off  so  a  winner 
could  be  named  and  she  beat  me 
by  two  points.  All  I  needed  were 
those  two  inches  to  beat  her!" 
Kanda's  family  belongs  to 
three  different  archery  clubs  m 
Fort  Wayne.  They  are  the  Six 
Gold,  the  Black  Beret  and  The 
Goshen  Archers,  which  meet  on 
Tuesdays,  Fridays,  and  Sundays, 
respectively. 
Individuals  compete  weekly 

"Tuesdays  and  Fridays  are 
basically  for  competition.  Tues- 
days we  compete  in  teams  of 
three,  and  on  Fridays  we  com- 
pete individually." 


Kanda's  schedule  is  hectic 
enough  with  school  and  archery 
clubs,  but  competition  games 
bring  on  the  need  for  more 
hours  of  practice.  "I  practice 
three  days  a  week,  now,  but  last 
year  before  the  state  tournament 
I  was  up  to  40  hours  a  week!" 
Kanda  places  first 

Last  year,  Kanda  was 
awarded  two  trophies  for  two 
outstanding  achievements.  She 
placed  first  in  the  Outdoors 
State  Shoot  in  Muncie  and 
second  in  the  Indoor  State 
Shoot  in  Indianapolis.  "I  did 
pretty  good  last  year,  but  I've 
gotten  a  new  bow,  which  is 
heavier.  I'm  counting  on  shoot- 
ing better  both  indoors  and 
outdoors  now." 

The  Black  Beret  and  the  Six 
Gold  both  have  formal  banquets 
to  recognize  their  members  at 
the  end  of  each  year.  Kanda 
recently  won  a  trophy  for  shoot- 


ing five  arrows  at  once  and 
hitting  the  bullseye,  a  teat  for 
which  both  clubs  awarded  her 
trophies.

Rutherford  captures  pole 
in  time  trials  for  race 

Time  trials  for  the  biggest  sporting  ewent  in  Indiana,  and  perhaps 
the  biggest  racing  event  in  the  world,  began  last  Saturday  at  the 
Indianapolis  Motor  Speedway. 

Texan  Johnny  Rutherford  grirT>ly  smashed  two  Speedway 
qualifying  records,  screaming  across  asphalt  scorched  by  a  wreck 
that  killed  his  old  friend,  Art  Pollard,  four  hours  earlier. 

The  Fort  Worth  veteran  won  the  pole  position  for  his  tenth  start 
in  the  $1  million  Indianapolis  500-mite  race  to  be  held  May  28.  He 
had  an  average  speed  of  198.413  miles  per  hour  for  the  10-mile 
elimination.  ,  ,  ,_,         . 

A  crowd  estimated  unofficially  at  250,000  ignored  a  cold  gusty 
wind  to  see  24  places  filled  in  the  33-car  field. Trialswill  continue 
Sunday  and  next  weekend. 

The  24  qualifiers  averaged  192.741  mph,  or  7.917  faster  than  the 
first  four  qualifiers  for  the  1972  race. 

Rutherford  missed  the  mystic  200  mph  goal  by  only  21 
one-hundredths  of  a  second  on  his  best  45.21  seconds  which 
produced  a  199.071  mph  around  the  slightiy-banked  2'/2mile  track. 

The  yellow  McLaren-Offenhauser's  performance  eased  records  set 
earlier  in  the  day  by  Sweede  Savage  of  Santa  Ana,  Californina,  in 
another  Eagle-Offy.  Savage  ran  198,413  for  the  distance  and 
197.152  for  a  single  lap. 

Bobby  Unser  of  the  New  Mexico  racing  family,  set  qualifying 
records  last  year  of  195,940  for  10  miles  and  196.413  mph  for  the 
distance  and  196,678  for  a  single  lap. 

Pollard,  46,  Indianapolis,  was  practicing  to  try  qualifying  lor  his 
sixth  tndy  start  when  his  car  swooped  into  the  infield  grass  at  the 
south  end  of  the  track.  The  car,  an  EagleOffy  which  had  been 
running  over  191  mph.  swerved  back  into  the  outer  wall  with  a 
sickening  crunch  and  caught  fire. 

Pollard,  ranked  No.  1 6  among  the  US  Auto  Club's  active  drivers, 
died  about  an  hour  later  of  flame  inhalation. 

Bobby  Unser  let  Rutherford  enjoy  his  record  for  about  four 
hours  and  made  his  own  run  with  a  half  hour  left  in  the  qualifying 
session  and  missed  the  Texan's  mark  by  1 1  hundredths  of  a  second 
for  ten  miles.

Trackmen  bow  to  Generals 


Sophomore  Lynn  Brown  ^«e 
Eimhuht  a  split  in  their  double-head- 
er a^inst  Huntington  by  pitching  a 
brilliant  no-hitter  with  ten 
sirike-outs. 

Last  Friday.  Elmhurst  jumped  in- 
to second  place  behind  Northrop  in 
the  citv  series  race  by  defeating 
Bishop  Dwenger  by  the  score  of  6-3. 
Scheduled  ^mes  with  Warsaw  and 
East  Nobte  were  postponed  because 
of  rain. 
Kampschmidt  pitches  well 

In  the  Friday  ^me,  which  was 
played  at  McMillen  Park,  the  Trojans 
erupted  for  six  runs  in  the  first  two 
innings  lo  put  the  game  away  early. 
Junior  Bernie  Kampschmidt  had  a 
one-hit  shut-out  going  into  the  last 
inning.   The     Samts       then  came 

alive  solving  the  southpaw  for  four 
singles  and  three  runs,  which  still 
wasn't  enough,  Kampschmidt  also  led 
the  offensive  attack  with  three  hits 
and  two  runs  batted  in. 

The  city  series  victory  left  Elm- 
hurst's  record  at  4-3,  the  only  win- 
ning record  in  the  city  outside  of 
Northrop.  The  overall  record  was 
upped  to  8-5. 
Vikings  stop  Trojans 

In  the  first  game  of  the  Saturday 
McMillen  park  doubleheader,  the 
Viking  of  Huntington  stopped  Elm- 
hurst's  four  game  winning  streak  by 
the  score  of  6-2.  Starting  pitcher 
Parker  of  Huntington  went  all  the 
way  on  a  seven-hitter.  He  and  dat- 
terymate  Pfisier  also  led  the  hining 
attack  with  two  safeties  apiece.  Jun- 
ior Kirk  WIMiams  had  three  hits  in  a 
losing  cause. 

The  second  game  was  a  com- 
pletely different  story  Lynn  Brown, 
still  a  sophomore  and  already  bring- 
ing back  memoties  of  how  his  bro- 
ther Mike  pitched  in  the  two  years 
before  he  graduated,  stunned  Hunt- 
ington by  throwing  a  10-1  no-hitter 
past  them.  As  the  final  score  indi- 
cates, the  batters  didn't  take  the 
game  off  either.  The  explosive  nine- 
run  second  inning,  breaks  the  old 
school  record  tor  runs  in  one  inking. 
Team  breaks  records 

Senior  John  Adams  and  junior 
catcher    Ken    Butler    led   the   charge 


with  three  hits.  Chipping  in  two  hits 
apiece  were  Bernie  Kampschmidt  and 
senior  JeH  Hibler.  The  record  for  hits 
in  one  game  also  was  broken  by  one 

The  Trojans  start  a  busy  week  by 
playing  a  postponed  game  tonight  at 
East  Noble  at  4  p.m.  It's  off  to 
Woodlan  tomorrovi/  where  they  will 
play  a  double-header  starting  at  10 
o'clock  in  the  morning. 


The  Trojan  trackmen  ran 
their  final  triangular  track  meet 
last  Thursday,  as  they  ran 
against  Wayne  and  Marion  at 
Marion.  Marion  won  the  meet 
with  57%  points  to  just  edge 
Wayne  by  a  point  and  a  half 
while  Elmhurst  finished  third 
ith  46%  points.  A  new  school 
record  was  set,  but  the  Elmhurst 
team  was  only  able  to  win  three 
events.  Wayne  won  more  events 
than  Marion  but  they  did  not 
have  the  depth  to  defeat  them. 
Essex  sets  record 

Junior  Harold  Essex  jumped 
23  ft.  4  in,  to  set  a  new  school 
record  in  the  long  jump,  better- 


foot.  With  this  tremendous  ef- 
fort, Essex  was  only  able  to 
finish  third  while  William  Under- 
wood established  an  ail  time 
Fort  Wayne  best  when  he  went 
23  feet  B'/i  inches  to  .finish 
second. 

Senior  Nate  Brown,  who  has 
this  area's  fastest  time  in  the 
440,  won  this  meet's  440-yard 
dash  with  a  52.6  clocking. 
Brown  had  to  be  considered  one 
of  the  favorites  in  the  quarter 
during  last  night's  sectional 
meet.  Senior  Chris  Johnson  won 
the  mile  run  with  a  fine  time  of 
4:42.2.

day  Elmhurst's  golf  team  com-

tournament  but  could  only  get  a 
dismal  eighth  place  out  of  nine 
possible  spots. 

Leading  the  way  for  the  Tro- 
jan's was  junior  Dave  Huffman 
with  a  score  of  81.  Next  in  line

Junior  participates  in 
government  program 


Junior  Evan  Davies  was  recently 
chosen  as  one  of  the  13  Allen  Countv 
high  school  students  to  participate  in 
the  Local  Government  Intern  program 
for  this  coming  summer. 

As  a  high  school  intern,  Evan  will 
spend  over  50  hours  observing  the 
local  government  in  action.  "Basically 
we  will  just  be  observing  the  govern- 
ment. We  will  attend  things  like  city 
council  meetings,"  stated  Evan.  In 
addition  to  attending  City  Council 
meetings,  he  will  attend  scheduled 
governmental  meetings  of  the  City  and 

Teachers, 
students   visit 
State  House 

Government  teacher,  Mr.  Richard 
Matix  was  recently  accompanied  by 
three  Elmhurst  students  to  the  State 
House  in  Indianapolis  to  participate  in 
the  Indiana  Youth  and  Government 
Program, 

Seniors  Kathy  Trotl,  Anne  Fox  and 
junior  Don  Shepherd  were  signed  up  to 
attend  a  student  congress  sponsored  by  the 
YMCA,  Students  from  all  over  Indiana  met 
ar>d  were  given  the  chance  to  participate  in 
government  proceeding. 
Members  elect  positions 

The  meetings  were  held  in  the  Senate  and 
House  Chambers  and  members  were  elected 
to  positions  such  as  Governor  and 
Lieutenant  Governor.  Mr.  MaTtiK  was 
elected  as  the  Advisor  in  the  Welfare 
Comminee,  Anne  and  Kathy  served  as 
members  of  the  Senate  and  Don  was  a 
representative  for  the  House. 

Before  their  arrival,  bills  mere  designed 
and  sent  on  to  the  Chambers  to  be  discussed 
and  signed  at  the  congregation.  Bills  brought 
up  by  the  members  were  the  legalizing  of 
gambling  which  was  passed  and  the  right  of 
1S-year-olds  to  marry  and  hold  properly 
without  the  written  consent  of  the  parents. 
Senate  "kilts"  bill 

This  bill  was  passed  in  the  House  but 
"killed"  in  the  Senate.  "We  tried  to  pass 
another  bill  too.  It  was  for  the  adoption  of 
the  'green  stink  bug'  as  the  state  insect  but 
it  was  knocked  down  the  first  time  around." 
The  students  attended  a  governor's  Ball 
during  their  weekend  and  were  also  heard 
by  a  guest  speaker  on  the  decisions  and 
effects  of  the  government.  Anne  stated.  "I 
really  thought  it  was  a  good  experience.  We 
all  were  given  a  new  outlook  on  our 
government." 


Three     Rivers    coordinating    Council, 
County  Council  meetings  and  sessions 
of  the  county  commissioners. 
Student  observes  government 

Evan  will  begin  his  study  of  the 
government  starting  June  12  and  it 
will  last  to  the  middle  of  August,  Each 
of  the  13  interns  will  have  an  organiza- 
,tion  supporting  them  . 

When  the  program  ends  in  August, 
they  will  be  required  to  report  to  their 
sponsoring  organizations  about  the 
amount  of  observed  time.  If  the  intern 
fulfills  the  required  fifty  hours,  the 
organization  serving  as  sponsors  will 
provide  a  SlOO  dollar  award  to  the 
participant.  "The  reason  we  have  to 
observe  for  fifty  hours  and  report  it 
to  our  sponsors  is  to  make  sure  a 
student  doesn't  sign  up  and  not  go  to 
any  meetings  or  anything  but  still 
collect  the  SlOO.  There's  a  bunch  of 
sponsoring  clubs  like  the  Downtown 
Kiwanis  Club,  Peoples  and  Lincoln 
Banks  and  the  Central  Lions  Club  " 
Evan  said. 
Clubs  sponsor  program 

Other  sponsors  include  the  Down- 
town Rotary  Club,  The  Fort  Wayne 
Junior  League,  The  Ruth  Levy 
Memorial  Fund  of  the  League  of 
Women  Voters  and  Pi  Chapter  Psi  lota 

In    order    to    be    chosen    for    the 

internship,  Evan  was  required  to  write 
a  qualifying  essay  on  "Citizens  stake  in 
Local  Government  -  What?  Why?  and 
How?"

Receive  awards. 

Pupils  win  honors,  scholarships 


by  Nancy  Frebel 

Several  Elmhurst  seniors  have  recently 
won  honprs  and  scholarships  from  various 
colleges  and  organizations.  These  students 
include  Sue  Quance,  Chris  Berry,  Steve 
Williams  and  LuJean  Fritz. 

Sue  received  the  Kiwanis  Good  Citizen 
Award  and  attended  a  luncheon  May  15. 
She  explained,  "The  Kiv«anis  Club  selects 
One  representative  from  each  school  based 
On  leadership,  scholarship,  extra-curricular 
activities  and  activities  in  the  community." 

Sue  comments  on  luncheon 


Sue  commented  that,  at  the  luncheon 
each  principal  introduced  his  representative 
^nd  they  were  then  awarded  with  a  plaque. 
They  had  my  name  spelled  wrong  so  thoy 
had  to  take  it  back."  she  added.  "IVIr. 
Eickhoff  embaressed  me  a  couple  of  times 
because  he  made  a  big  deal  of  bringmgagirl. 


There  were  only  two  gins  and  the  rest  were 
all  men.  He  said  that  as  Jong  as  he  had  to  sit 
th-ough  lunch  he  might  as  well  have  good 
company,"  she  continued. 

Principal  Charles  Eickhoff  listed  Sue's 
achievements  as  her  trip  to  Switzerland  last 
summer  with  the  Experiment  in  Inter- 
national Living,  a  state  scholarship,  church 
activity  and  a  bat  girl  for  the  tiaseball  team. 
"He  sensed  they  enjoyed  hearing  about  my 
being  a  bat  girl  so  he  elaborated  on  it,"  she 
^siured.  "The  principal  that  followed  Mr. 
Ejckholf  said,  "I  never  want  to  follow 
Charlie  because  everyone  enjoyed  his  sense 
of  humor.  The  group  all  commented  on  how 
they  will  miss  him  next  year," 

Sue  attends  college 

Sue  will  attend  Valporaiso  University 
next  year  and  major  in  either  biology  or 
chemistry.  She  also  plans  to  spend  her 
junior  year  abroad. 


Chris   berry  received  a  scholarship  from 
the      Rapid      American      Corporation      for 
S4,000.   She   explained,   "It   is  through  my 
father's  company   ■ 
Colleges  offer  scholarships

cordia College  in  St,  Paul,  Minn,  for  S500 
and  one  from  the  English  District  of 
Lutheran  Churches  from  $100.  Manchester 
College  also  offered  her  a  scholarship  which 
she  declined  because  she  will  be  attending 
Concordia  College.  LuJean  plans  to  major  in 
social  work  or  psychology.

Gas  prices  skyrocket  . 


Drop-out  rate  declines; 
programs  prove  success 

High  School  dropouts  have  always  been  a  problem  to  our 
educational  system.  The  national  dropout  rate  is  declining,  though, 
with  about  800.000  students  per  year  quitting.  The  reason  for  the 
decline  could  be  accredited  to  the  various  government  financed 
programs  design  to  keep  them  in  school. 

According  to  the  National  Observer,  the  total  figure  for  1973 
may  be  only  500.000  about  50  per  cent  of  some  of  the  figures  in  the 
1950's.  This  is  a  marked  drop  from  the  24  per  cent  drop  out  rate  of 
1970. 

The  federal  government  pours  SIC  million  yearly  into  drop-out 
programs  that  may  be  paying  off.  These  programs  are  usually 
pointed  at  potential  dropouts  who  are  often  delinquents  of  social 
out  cast. 

Teachers  and  counselors  often  volunteer  during  free  hours  and 

before  or  after  school  to  work  with  students  who  cannot  learn  under 
traditional  curriculums.  One  school  that  found  success  with  this  is 
Kearns  High  School  in  Salt  Lake  City.  Utah.  There  several  students 
exhibited  tendency  that  might  lead  to  dropping  out. 

Instead  of  allowing  what  seemed  inevitable,  teachers  set  up  a 
special  program  that  allowed  students  to  write  their  own  curriculum. 
They  often  spend  the  entire  day  rapping  about  problems,  both 
personal  and  social.  Guest  Speakers  including  drug  addicts  and 
sheriffs  have  visited  with  the  group  speaking  on  controversial  topics. 

Dr.  Hyrum  Smith,  an  official  of  the  Office  of  Education  program 
to  develop  ways  of  helping  potential  dropouts,  states  "Our 
philosphy  was  that  if  we're  going  to  keep  kids  in  school  we're  going 
to  have  to  change  the  system," 

This  change  from  ordinary,  traditional  curriculum  may  prove  to 
be  a  successful  answer  to  high  dropout  rates.  Although  it  depends  on 
volunteer  hours,  teachers  have  found  their  work  repaid  by  students 
who  take  genuine  interest  in  their  contemporary,  self  make 
curriculum. 


A  recent  News  Sentinel  news 
story     quoted     a    Standard     Oil 

representative  as  saying  that 
some  people  predict  that  gas 
prices  will  rise  to  SI. 50  per 
gallon.  The  representative  main- 
tains that  prices  should  not  be 
above  50  cents  per   gallon. 

The  rationale  is  obvious: 
scare  tactics  of  the  aforemen- 
tioned "some  people"  make  50 
cents  a  gallon  seem  cheap. 

Gas  shortages  are  evident 
with  the  number  of  small 
stations  closing  temporarily  or 
permanently.  Groups  like  the 
Isaac  Walton  League  who  are 
lobbying  to  keep  the  Alaskan 
Pipe  Line  from  being  built  seem 
to  have  more  power  than  the 
vast  majority  of  the  American 
people  who  want  the  lower 
prices  the  pipeline  would  afford. 
Administration  predicts  shortages 

Officially,  the  Nixon  Admin- 
istration is  predicting  that  only 
"spot  shortages"  of  a  few  days' 
duration  will  occur  in  regions 
away  from  refineries  or  major  oil 
companies'  pipelines.  Industry 
men  say  that  the  upper  Mid- 
west-Northern Great  Lakes 
region  is  one  of  the  most  vul- 
nerable areas  for  this  to  happen. 

Ways  to  prevent  or  lessen  the 
gas  shortage  are  being  reviewed. 
Importing  oil,  rationing  by  in- 
dividual car  owners  and  in- 
creasing production  are  three 
suggestions.  The  administration 
plans  to  use  all  three. 
Wright  states  opinion 

"I'm  afraid  we're  in  for  some 
seesaw  years,"  says  the  Ameri- 
can Petroleum  Institute's  Ray 
Wright.    "Gas    shortages   in   the

winter,  until  through  domestic 
supply  or  imports  we  solve  our 
problem.  But  there's  no  plenti- 
tude  of  petroleum  products  any- 
more, so  don't  be  looking  for  a 
bonanza  of  cheap  energy." 

The  Interior  Department's 
Stephen  Wakefield  says  gasoline 
consumption  could  be  curbed 
easily,  "If  each  motorist  could 
save  only  one  gallon  a  week  of 
gasoline,"  he  told  the  Senate 
Banking  Committee,  "then  we 
would  not  anticipate  any  diffi- 
culties this  summer." 
Administration  avoids  rationing 

Gasoline  rationing  by  dealers 
is  a  course  the  administration 
wants  to  avoid-  By  telling  all 
petroleum  supplies  to  make  their 
products  available  to  customers 
in  each  state  in  the  same  propor- 
tion they  were  last  year,  the 
'administration  protected  in- 
dependent fuel  oil  marketers. 
These  people  feared  the  major 
oil  companies  would  use  the 
shortage  as  an  excuse  to  cut 
them  off  entirely,  thus  elimmat-

dustry. 

Although  gas  prices  will  rise 
this  summer,  the  jump  will  not 
be  a  very  big  one.  If  no  other 
course  of  action  works,  if  in- 
creased imports  and  increased 
production  fail  to  curb  the 
shortage,  some  other  action  will 
have  to  be  taken.  A  price  in- 
crease is  the  only  other  alter- 
native. 
Official  states  opinion 

Higher  prices  would  force 
motorists  to  drive  less  and  en- 
courage companies  to  produce 
or  import  more,  "This  is  not  a 
good  alternative."  says  a  govern- 
ment official  who  does  not  warn 
his  name  used  in  connectior 
with  speculation  about  a  pric. 
increase.  "On  the  other  hand, 
he  adds,  "we  may  in  the  enn 
have  to  allow  it." 

Much  of  the  responsibility  i^ 
left  to  the  consumer  to  conserve 
gas,  and  to  avoid  price  increases 
and  gas  rationing.

Mayor  speaks  to  students 


Mayor  Ivan  Lebamoff  surprised  Elmhurst 
students  Tuesday  with  an  unexpected  visit  through 
the  cafeteria  during  lunch  mods.  He  and  two  of  his 
staff  members  strolled  through  the  dining  room 
shaking  hands  and  chatting  with  the  students. 

"It's  good  for  me  to  get  out  of  the  office  and 
not  be  isolated.  Young  people  are  usually  open 
and  frank,"  he  said  during  a  brief  interview  in  the 
publications  room. 
Lebamoff  visits  schools 

Lebamoff  has  visited  North  Side  High  School 
and  South  Side  High  School  last  week  and  plans  to 
meet  students  at  the  remaining  public  and 
parochial  high  schools.  "We're  trying  it  a  little 
differently  this  year.  We're  trying  to  catch  them 
off  guard  in  the  cafeteria."  Lebamoff  explained. 
He  is  hoping  students  will  express  their  views  of 
his  current  decisions  which  effect  Fort  Wayne 
youth  and  any  suggestions  they  might  have  to 
offer. 

Referring  to  the  situation  at  Foster  P,.,k,  he 
said,  "Last  Sunday  was  a  good  test  for  our  new  set 
up.  It  was  warm,  the  kids  were  well  behaved.  We 
had  a  sound  truck  down  by  the  bridge  which  they 
appreciated," 
Officials  alter  traffic 

"Traffic  was  slowed  down  a  bit.  It  was  an 
illusion  of  not  being  crowded  because  traffic  was 


moving  better,"  he  continued.  Irattic  has  been 
altered  throughout  the  park  for  Sunday  after- 
noons. Traffic  ts  one  way  through  the  entire  park 
with  policemen  stationed  at  all  exits.  This  provides 
a  larger  circle  for  drivers  to  cover  before  returning 
to  the  park. 

The  mayor  is  also  researching  the  possibility  of 
a  drag  strip  in  Fort  Wayne.  He  has  talked  with  the 
owner  of  the  Avilla  strip  and  is  considering  a  two 
mile  drag    strip  at  Baer  Field. 

The  Coliseum  Board  has  decided  not  to  bring 
any  groups  to  Fort  Wayne  for  rock  concerts, 
"They  explained  that  too  many  kids  are  smoking 
pot,"  said  the  mayor,  "We're  trying  to  see  if  we 
can  bring  good  groups  outside  in  the  open.  It's  to 
be  run  by  the  same  oromoters,"  he  completed. 

Mayor  makes  effort 

ivir.  Lebarnon  is  making  an  effort  to  know  the 
people  he  is  working  for  and  let  them  know  "I  am 
human  too."  he  said.  He  has  been  in  Foster  Park 
several  limes  and  with  his  current  visits  to  the  high 
schools  perhaps  he  will  gain  a  better  insight  to  the 
problems  youth  has.  Of  course,  some  students  will 
refuse  to  talk  to  him  and  others  will  take 
advantage  of  his  visits. 

Mayor  Lebamoff  does  have  an  interest  in  the 
youth  of  Fort  Wayne  as  seen  by  his  efforts  to 
improve  Foster  Park  and  his  visits  to  the  high 
schools.

Junior    attends    radio    class 


Testing  .  .  ,  Testing  .  .  .  this  is 
your  singin'  and  swingin'  disc 
jockey  CraigMasters  bringingyou 
the  farout  music  of  Fort  Wayne, 
This  is  a  typical  line  from  one  of 
the  many  programs  Junior  Craig  ' 
Masters  has  made  to  be  intro- 
duced on  radio  station  WGL. 

Craig  first  got  interested  in 
radio  and  television  broadcasting 
when  he  received  a  letter  from 
the  television  coofdinator  at 
WANE  TV,  Mrs.  Becky  Haksby. 
It  stated  that  seminars  were 
going  to  be  held  at  WANE  TV  to 
help  students  who  were  in- 
terested in  communications. 
These  seminars  are  held  every 
week  to  show  how  commercials 
are  made  and  about  the  little 
things  behind  the  scenes  that 
help  put  on  big  productions. 
"It's  an  interesting  experience 
for  me  because  I'm  deeply  in- 
volved in  radio  and  television 
media,"  stated  Craig. 
Meeting  acquaints  students 

The  main  goal  of  the  meet- 
ings are  to  acquaint  the  young 
adult  with  the  media.  The 
students  \n\\\  learn  to  produce 
5hows  and  commercials  and  if 
good  enough,  will  get  a  crack  at 
producing  a  commercial.  If 
students  are  good  at  producing, 
they  will  be  able  to  get  their 
FCC  license  which  allows  them 
to  broadcast  over  radio. 

The  seminars  will  last  as  long 
as  there  are  interested  students 
who  show  talent.  Mrs.  Haksby 
told  the  students  that  if  they 
were  not  interested,  attending 
the  seminars  would  be  a  waste  of 
time. 

The  program  is  associated 
Mith  an  Explorer  Post  who  spon- 
sors the  whole  program.  "It's  a 
worthwhile  project  and  I'm 
learning  a  great  deal  of  informa- 
tion/' states  Craig. 
Senior  attends  seminars 

Senior       Frank      Smith      has 


attended  the  seminars  and  is 
greatly  interested  In  the  radio 
aspect.  "It's  educational  for  the 
lay  man  and  you  learn  from 
personal  experience,"  said 
Frank.  About  25  students  show 
for  every  meeting  and  tour  the 
station  watching  commercials 
beina  made. 


The  cost  of  the  program  is 
S2.50  and  this  pays  for  all 
materials  and  your  FCC  license. 
"I'm  considering  communica- 
tions and  broadcasting  as  a 
career,  but  it's  not  definite," 
replied  Craig.  The  program  is  for 
everybody  who  is  interested  in 
the  fields  of  traffic,  continuity 
and_news. 


by  Janet  Bell 

Editors  note  :  the  following 
story  contains  excerpts  from  an 
article  that  appeared  in  the  May 
issue  of  Psychology  Today. 

Many  people  have  been 
watching  hemlines  for  years  with 
varying  motives.  Economists 
seek  clues  to  stock  market  be- 
havior, department  store  buyers 
look  for  next  years  fashion 
J  trends.  Television  preachers 
check  for  signs  of  sin  and  the 
rest,  amateurs  at  heart,  watch 
hemlines  for  the  same  reason 
others  do  -  because  they're 
there. 

The  hemline's  long  climb  to 
above  the  knee,  and  its  ability  to 
stay  there  is  unprecedented  in 
history.  "For  300  years,"  says 
Marvin  Harris,  a  columnist  and 
Columbia  University  anthropolo- 
gist, "the  skirt  had  remained  at 
the  ankle  or  on  the  ground 
continously." 

"The  only  exceptions  were 
the  years  1813  and  1834.  when 
skirts  rose  briefly  to  a  point 
between  the  ankle  and  the  calf. 
Starting  in  1913  daytime  skirts 
rose  to  the  ankle  and  have  never 
returned  below  it.  in  spite  of 
repeated  attempts  by  designers 
to  get  them  back  into  their 
groove  worn  through  time  be- 
.tween  the  ankle  and  the  floor," 

Harris  predicts  that  women 
will  never  again  tolerate 
floor-length  skirts,  except  as  an 


alternative  to  pants  or  short 
skirts.  This  reflects  his  major 
point,  that  large  scale  cultural 
changes  control  fashion.  "Unless 
you  believe  that  women's 
liberation  is  a  movement  pri- 
marily based  in  the  French 
houses  of  fashion,"  he  writes, 
"you  will  have  to  concede  that 
the  young  designers  of  1962 
who  took  the  skirt  above  the 
knee  were  responding  to  an 
opportunity  they  had  done  little 
to  create. 

The  traditional  pattern  of 
designing  skimpy  and  revealing 
clothes  are  already  under  attack. 
To  those  people  who  hope  or 
fear  that  this  permissive  society 
will  allow  changes  that  will  lead 
to  an  era  of  anything  goes, 
Harris  philosophizes :  "New 
patterns  will  simply  take  the 
place  of  the  old,  and  styles  will 
simply  resume  their  wandering 
within  culturally  defined 
channels. 


Tennis  epidemic  proves  serious 


by  Tammy  Schecter 

A  twist  of  the  arm,  a  turn  of 
a  doorknob,  and  a  tennis  ball  hit 
off  center,  are  all  situations 
which  cause  a  sensation  that 
some  players  compare  with 
being  hit  in  the  elbow  by  a 
hammer.  Doctors  and  athletes 
have  long  been  aware  of  this 
ailment  knpwn  as  tennis  elbow, 
but  it  is  now  becoming  an 
epidemic  in  America. 

Apparently  set  off  by  the 
repeated,  jarring  impact  of  the 
ball  on  the  racket,  the  shock 
travels  to  the  arm,  where  it 
causes  extreme  pain,  which  doc- 
tors, despite  long  experience 
with  Tennis  elbow  victims,  still 
do  not  fully  understand. 
Affliction  contributes  to  disease 
Often  an  affliction  of  the 
aging  athlete,  gout,  an  arthritic 
disease    and    softening    of    the 


cartllidge,  Cdn  also  contribute  to 
tenniselbow. 
Aspiring  effects  elbow 

In  mild  cases,  aspiring  is 
recommended  as  it  appears  to 
have  an  anti-inflammatory  effect 
on  the  elbow.  Cirtison  can  be 
■  used  in  persistent  cases,  how- 
ever, many  victims  find  it  as 
painful  as  the  affliction  itself. 
Although  surgery  is  sometimes 
advised  to  release  the  tension  on 
the  arm  tendons  or  ligaments, 
some  cases  disappear  almost  as 
suddenly  as  they  began,  often 
without  treatment. 

Dr.  Jeffrey  Minkhoff, 
orthopedic  surgeon  at  the  New 
Institute  of  Sports  Medicine  at 
New  York  City's  Lenox  Hill 
Hospital,  believes  the  best  cure  is 
prevention.  Weak  forearm 
muscles,  an  improper  grip  on  the 
racket,  or  a  tendency  to  hit  the 


ball  incorrectly,  all  contribute  to  i 
tennis  elbow.  To  prevent  these 
handicaps  he  recommends  exer- 
cise to  strengthen  arm  muscles 
and  lessons  that  will  improve 
stroking  and  serving,  thus 
reducing   shock   to  the  arm.

fered a  2-1  setback  despite  the 
fact  that  they  scored  first.  The 
run  which  crossed  the  plate  for 
Elmhurst  in  the  fourth  inning 
represented  the  first  run  in  six- 
teen innings  against  each  other 
this  year  by  either  team. 
Butler  leads  with  walk 

It  started  when  senior  Dave 
Butler  led  off  with  a  walk. 
Junior  Eric  Russell  followed 
with  a  perfect  sacrifice  bunt  as 
Butler  scampered  all  the  way  to 
third.  He  came  home  on  a 
sacrifice  fly  by  junior  Kirk  Wil- 
liams. 

Wayne  retaliated  quickly  the 
next  inning.  After  back  to  back 
singles  and  an  infield  out,  there 
was  one  out  with  men  on  second 
and  third.  Drake  Durnell  of 
Wayne  followed  with  a  clutch 
single  to  shallow  centerfield. 
Eric  Russell  came  charging  in 
and  fired  the  ball  far  over 
catcher  Ken  Butler's  head  allow- 
ing the  winning  run  to  score.

distance  only  to  come  out  on 
the  short  end  of  the  pitching 
duel  to  Steve  Reed  of  Wayne. 
The  biggest  thorn  in  his  side  was 
Tim  Thomas  who  collected  three 
hits  for  the  winners. 

In  the  game  at  City  Utilities 
Park  against  fifteenth  ranked 
Northrop,  Elmhurst  fared  even 
worse  as  they  got  clobbered

SCHOLARSHIP  SOCIETY 


Paschall  receives  Blanket  Award 


Senior  Bob  Paschall  was  voted 
Elmhurst's  outstanding  athlete  as  he 
captured  the  coveted  Blanket  Award. 
Of  three  eligible  students.  Bob  was 
considered  the  most  hard-working, 
dedicated  athlete  as  he  lettered  in 
basketball  one  year,  football  three 
years  and  track  three  years. 

According  to  Mr.  Jerry  Bush, 
Athletic  Director,  the  state  has  several 
guidelines  that  must  be  followed  when 
choosing  the  award  winner.  They 
stipulate  that  the  student  must  be  a 
graduating  senior,  actively  involved  in 
three  sports  for  at  least  two  years  and 
be  outstanding  in  at  least  two  sports, 
recommended  by  a  head  coach  and 
voted  on  by  the  athletic  council.  The 
winner  must  also  have  an  excellent 
attitude  and  be  scholastically  eligible. 

Mr.  Bush  commented.  "He  has 
done  a  nice  job  and  contributed  a 
great  deal  to  the  athletic  program.  His 
good  citizenship  is  evident  in  the 
Sertoma  Award  he  received." 

Bob's  coaches  all  agreed  he  was  an 
excellent  choice  for  the  award.  Head 
Track   Coach,  Mr.  Don   Kemp,  stated. 


"He  takes  things  very  seriously  and  has 
a  good  influence  on  the  team.  As  long 
as  I've  known  him,  and  that  has  been 
for  two  years,  he  has  always  been  cool, 
calm  and  collected.  Whatever  happens 
he  always  stays  cool."  Mr.  Kemp  also 
added,  "He  listens  very  well  to  every- 
thing I  tell  him." 

Head  Football  Coach,  Mr.  Warren 
Hoover  described  Bob  as  small  but 
competitive.  "He  made  All-City  two 
years  in  a  row  as  defensive  halfback. 
He  played  both  ways,  defensive  and 
offensive,  and  he  played  all  the  time," 
Coach  Hoover  stated. 

As  a  basketball  player,  Head  Coach 
Ken  Etycheson  said  he  was  more 
defensive  than  offensive.  "That 
probably  stemmed  from  his  quickness. 
He  can  change  directions  very 
quickly,"  the  coach  added.  He 
described  Bob  as  a  good  hustler  with  a 
tremendoLB attitude.  "He  is  the  kind  of 
kid  that  will  do  anything  to  help  out 
the  team,"  he  added. 

Next  fall  Bob  plans  to  attend  Fort 
Hayes  College  in  Fort  Hayes,  Kansas 
with  a  major  in  education.  He  also 
hopes  lo  play  football.

Nate  Brown  wins  spirit  award 


Senior  Nate  Brown  was  awarded 
the  Gorden  Cravrford  Competitive 
Spirit  Award  for  this  year. 

The  Award  was  established  by  the 
graduating  class  three  years  ago  in 
honor  of  Garden  Crawford  who  died 
in  Vietnam.  Donations  were  made  to 
provide  for  the  award  and  handed  over 
to  the  athletic  department  in  honor  of 
their  fellow  athlete. 

This  award  is  presented  to  a 
graduating  senior  starting  on  a  senior 
level,  based  on  the  individual's  display 
of  courage,  competitve  spirit,  good 
sportsmanship  and  citizenship. 

In  order  for  a  senior  to  recieve  the 

award  he  must  be  approved  by  a 
majority  of  coaches,  athletic  director 
and  principal.  More  than  one  athlete 
can  fill  the  prerequisites  in  a  given  year 
to  be  elligible  for  the  award. 

In  nominating  an  individual  for  the 
Goiden  Crawford  Award,  each  coach 
draws  up  a  resume  of  factors  of  an 
athlete  that  gives  him  elligebility  for 
the  award.  A  full  discussion  of  each 
nominee  by  coaches  and  administra- 
tors takes  place  immediately  prior  to 
the  final  vote.  The  principal  makes  the 


New  members  for  1973  are: 

Tom  Boyer  Matt  Hunter 

Greg  Bussard  Pat  McDonald 

Male  Finlayson  Steve  Miller

final  decision. 

Nate  Brown  was  chosen  as  this 
year's  Gorden  Crawford  Competitive 
Spirit  Award  winner  due  to  his  interest 
in  Elmhurst,  competitive  spirit,  and 
outstanding  courage  for  two  years  in 
track  and  two  years  of  varsity  football. 

He  ran  at  North  Central  of 
Indianapolis  in  the  State  and  Field 
Championship  in  1972.  The  880  relay 
team  placed  second  in  the  state,  of 
which  Nate  was  a  member.  This 
particular  team  equaled  the  state's  best 
880  time  which  has  not  been  equaled 
up  to  date. 

According    to    Mr.    Kemp,    coach, 

when  the  team  was  in  need  of  extra 
effort,  Nate  Brown  was  asked  to  run 


anchor  leg  in  a  relay.  He  ran  220  in 
23,0;  then  ran  a  440  in  50.0  which  Is 
the  area's  best  time,  and  second  fastest 
in  Indiana.  His  time  in  the  anchor  leg 
was  22.8.  All  of  this  he  accomplished 
at  one  meet, 

"Nate  Brown  is  an  outstanding 
citizen  at  Elmhurst  -  plus  a  first  class 
citizen  in  every  teacher's  mind"  com- 
mented Mr.  Kemp,  "1  feel  that  Nate 
believes  that  Elmhurst  High  School  is 
the  best  high  school.  He  truly  feels 
that  without  EHS  his  success  as  an 
athlete  would  never  had  come  about." 

Mr.  Kemp  concluded,  "Nate  has 
suffered  much  pain  this  year  in  order 
to  succeed  with  honor  and  give  a  good 
representation  for  Elmhurst."

Eickhoff  nears  retirement; 


It  was  the  opening  of  the  new 
Elfnhurst  High  School  that  began 
Charles  W,  Eickhoff's  career  in  leach- 
ing and  consequently  his  recent  posi- 
tion as  principal. 

After  graduating  from  Indiana  Uni- 
versity in  1931.  he  talked  with  the 
Wayne  Township  Trustee  and  was 
hired  as  a  mathematics  and  social 
studies  teacher.  Mr.  Eickhoff,  born 
and  raised  in  the  Waynedale  district, 
has  remained  at  Elmhurst  for  42  years, 
fifteen  of  those  as  head  of  the  school. 
He  is  the  second  principal  in  the 
history  of  Elmhurst,  succeeding  Mr. 
Paul  Haller  who  served  from  1931 
until  1957. 
Principal  sees  changes 

Many  changes  have  taken  place  in 
the  school  system  and  its  students 
such  as  the  lack  of  interest  in  outside 
activities  and  other  school  affairs.  As 
was  slated  by  Mr,  Eickhoff  in  a  recent 
interview  with  the  News  Sentinel, 
"The  school  was  a  gathering  point  for 
all  students,  and  their  activities,  both 
socially  and  academically,  stemmed 
from  the  school."  He  also  added, 
"Today,  they  come  to  school  seemmg- 
ly  without  motivation.  There  is  little 
or  no  mterest  to  achieve," 

Another  change  that  has  taken 
place  sinceMr.  Eickhoff's  arrival  is  the 
plans  for  a  development  of  a  special 
facility  for  each  high  school  for  the 
mentally  retarded,  Elmhurst  currently 
has  special  members,  psychometrists 
that  give  tests  and  guidance  to 
students  needing  help  in  speech  and 
hearing  therapy.  Mr.  Eickhoff  com- 
mented, "Students  have  varied  in 
many  ways.  We  have  always  had  many 
fine  students  at  Elmhurst.  Our  gradu- 
'  ates  have  gone  on  to  become  teachers. 
doctors,  lawyers,  engineers,  preachers, 
and  good  solid  citizens  in  the  various 
jkilled  trades." 


Another  problem  tfiat  effected  M,, 
Eickhoff's  administration  was  the  in- 
tegration of  students  in  schools.  Mr. 
Eickhoff  belieued  that  many  students 
were  counting  on  attending  the 
schools  their  other  relatives  had  but 
after  the  first  year  students  began  to 
adjust  to  the  situation. 

After  his  retirement,  Mr.  Eickhoff 
and  his  wife  plan  on  visiting  their 
grandchildren  in  Oregon  and  will 
spend  time  on  their  farm.  "We  also 
intend  to  see  Elmhurst  play  football 
and  basketball.  We  hope  to  enjoy 
retirement  with  the  confidence  that 
the  school  is  in  good  hands." 
Eickhoff  gives  farewell 

Mr.  Eickhoff  went  on  to  give  a 
farewell  to  the  graduating  class  of 
"73"  and  to  future  classes.  "I  wish  to 
congratulate  the  class  of  "73"  for 
providing  good  leadership  and  for  their 
contributions  to  a  successful  year.  1 
wish  to  advise  the  classes  of  ■'74"  and 
"75"  that  they  take  advantage  of  the 

educational  opportunities  available  at 
Elmhurst.  The  student  of  today  may 
have  to  be  retrained  3  or  4  times 
during  his  lifetime.  The  student  with 
good  command  of  fundamentals  and 
the  ability  to  concentrate  and  study 
will  have  the  best  chance  to  succeed  in 
our  changing  times.  Good  luck  and 
great  success  to  you  all  and  to  Elm- 
hurst High  School  in  the  years  to 
come."  He  also  added,  "I  have  enjoyed 
my  42  years  ai  Elmhurst  and  I  am 
thankful  to  have  had  the  health  and 
strength  to  serve  so  many  throughout 
the  years.  This  is  a  fine  school, a  fine 
community,  and  there  is  great  promise 
in  our  future." 


reflects  on  past  years 


1946 

Mr.  Eickhoff's  favorite  saying  in 
1945  was  "four  days".  Students 
also  referred  to  him  as  the  rifle 
totin'  papa.  He  was  sponsor  of 
the  rifle  club  again  that  year. 


"Much  wisdom  remains  to  be  learned, 
and  if  it  is  only  to  be  learned  througli 
adversity,  we  must  endeavor  to  endure 
adversity  with  what  fortitude  we  can  • 
command.  But  if"  we  can  acquire 
wisdom  soon  enough,  adversity  may 
not  be  necessary  and  tlie  future  of 
man  may  be  happier  than  any  part  of 
Iiis  past."

The  Elmhurst  Marching  Band  partici- 
pated in  the  traditional  Memorial  Day 
Parade.  Wednesday  evening  at  7:00

commented  Mrs.  Pugsley.  She  chuckled  at 

the  insinuation  that  the  kids  were  too 
much  for  her  and  explained,  "I  feel  that  a 
job  as  a  counselor  fits  me  better  and  I  get 
more  self  and  job-satisfaction  from  it. 
But,  I  wouldn't  have  missed  the  experi- 
ence of  this  year  as  Dean  of  Girls  for  the 
world." 

Mrs.  Pugsley  was  able  to  regain  her  old 
job  at  Portage  when  the  present  woman 
counselor  decided  to  get  married.  She  is 
looking  forward  to  working  with  her  old 
friends  at  Portage,  but  she  will  miss  the 
many  friends  she  has  made  this  year  at 
Elmhurst, 

Also  departing  from  Elmhurst  this 
year  is  Mr.  Jerry  Bush,  athletic  director. 
Mr.  Bush,  who  has  been  at  Elmhurst  for' 
nine  years  will  now  attend  Harding  High 
School  in  East  Allen  County  as  an  assist- 
ant football  coach  and  a  full-time  guid- 
ance counselor. 

Mr.  Bush  has  served  as  a  football  and 
wrestling  coach.  He  has  also  taught  at 
Elmhurst  for  five  years  and  acted  as  guid- 
ance  counselor   for   one 

Mrs,  Mary  Polite,  an  English  teacher  at 
Elmhurst  has  been  with  the  school  for  20 
years  and  would  now  like  to  travel  and 
see  the  United  States.  Mrs,  Polite  has 
mostly  taught  sophomore  and  junior  clas- 
ses. Quietly  she  commented,  "I've  en- 
joyed teaching  students  here  at  Elmhurst. 
Now  I  would  like  to  see  more  of  our 
country  and  especially  the  Western  part." 
Mrs.  Polite  has  also  traveled  to  Europe. 
After  her  travels  she  will  return  to  her 
home  in  Fort  Wayne. 

"It's  been  a  great  learning  experience," 
stated  Mrs,  Marlene  Schultz,  who  will  also 
be  saying  goodbye  to  Elmhurst  as  school 
concludes  June  7,  Mrs,  Schultz  has  been 
the  publications  advisor  for  the  Advance 
and  the  Aniibrum  for  the  past  two  years. 
She  Will  now  return  to  quiet  homelife 
with  her  husband  and  two  children. 

When  recalling  the  past  two  years,  Mrs. 
Schultz  had  this  to  say,  "Many  of  today's 
students  are  more  responsible  and  dedi- 
cated than  1  have  previously  remem- 
bered," She  also  expressed  the  need  for 
more  group  activities  such  as  publications 
be  sponsored  and  formed  so  that  the  stu- 
dents would  be  free  to  express  themselves 
but  also  learn  responsibilities  toward  oth- 
ers. She  stated  somewhat  sadly.  "Neither 
teaching  nor  being  a  student  today  seems 
to  have  a  great  deal  of  meaning.  Unfor- 
tunately, there  are  too  many  teachers  to- 
day who  from  kindergarten  on  teach  kids 
to  be  robots.  By  the  time  Ihey  reach  high 
school  they  can  no  longer  think  for  them- 
selves. If  the  teacher  comes  up  with  a 
good  idea  that  required  some  work  on 
their  part  they're  stymied,"

Wildlife  destroys  Catoctin 

Catoctin  Mountain  National  Park  is  lo- 
cated 65  miles  north  of  Maryland's  capi- 
tal and  at  one  time  was  destroyed  by 
corruptive  farm  practices  and  clear-cut- 
ting types  of  wildlife. 

Each  club  member  receives  a  certifi- 
cate for  entrance  into  the  program.  A  ' 
plaque  will  be  awarded  to  each  club

wards  will  be  given  during  the  youth  sem- 
inar. Mr,  Haller  laughed  as  the  students 
discussed  the  coming  event  and  with  anxi- 
ety commented.  "As  of  yet  we  haven't 
announced  who  will  be  coming  with  me 
as  members  of  the  class." 


Horstmeyer  joins  Elmhurst 


Richard  H.  Horstmeyer,  assistant  principal  of 
Northrop  High  School,  will  follow  Charles  Eickhoff 
next  year  as  principal  here  at  Elmhurst. 

Horstmeyer  has  participated  in  the  field  of 
education  since  1952  when  he  began  teaching  at 
Bunker  Hill  High  School,  He  later  went  to  Hunter- 
town  for  three  years  to  continue  teaching  high  school 
mathematics  and  sciences. 

In  1962.  Horstmeyer  joined  the  Fort  Wayne 
School  system  at  Central  High  School  as  a  physics 
and  chemistry  teacher.  He  later  became  Dean  of  Boys 
but  was  transferred  to  Northrop  after  Central's 
closing.  At  Northrop  he  continued  as  Dean  of  Boys 
and  soon  was  promoted  to  assistant  principal. 

The  new  principal  commented  on  his  first  impres- 
sions of  Elmhurst  by  saying,  "It's  a  great  school, 
Elmhurst  has  an  excellent  reputation  and  I'm  proud 
to  have  this  opportunity," 


Horstmeyer  explained  that  he  sees  no  immediate 
changes  in  Mr.  Eickhoff's  methods.  He  plans  to 
familiarize  himself  with  the  programming  of  students 
during  the  summer.  He  described  himself  as  being 
definitely  conservative  in  the  field  of  education  but 
he's  not  afraid  to  admit  it.  Furthermore,  he  said  he  is 
in  favor  of  some  change  though. 

The  new  principal  will  become  the  third  one  in 
Elmhurst  history.  He  follows  Mr,  Eickhoff  who  has 
been  here  42  years  as  both  teacher  and  Principal. 

Horstmeyer  is  a  life  member  of  the  National 
Education  Association  and  hplds  a  guidance  counsel- 
ing license.  He  also  belongs  to  the  Fort  Wayne 
Principal's  association, 

Horstmeyer  stated  about  his  appointment,  "I'm 
looking  fonArard  to  coming.  I've  known  a  lot  of  the 
staff  members  and  I  know  they'll  be  fine  to  work 
with."

"The  kids  who  want  to 
smoke  are  goir>g  to  do  it  anyway, 
whether  it's  at  the  conceits,  at 
the  Coliseum  or  someplace  else." 
This  was  a  comment  made  by 
one  Elmhurst  student  regarding 
the  banning  of  all  rock  concens 
at  the  Coliseum,  This  seemed  to 
be  the  general  comment  of  most 
students  who  expressed  their 
opinion  on  the  matter. 

Recently,  the  Coliseum  Board 
decided  not  to  bring  any  more 
groups  to  Fort  Wayne  for  rock 
concerts.  They  explained  that 
too  many  kids  were  smoking  pot 
inside  the  Coliseum. 

Although  the  opinion  of 
those  people  who  expressed 
their  thoughts  varied  to  some 
extent,  most  of  them  were  a- 
gainst  the  ban. 

Sophomore  Val  Humbarger 
siad.  "I  don't  think  it's  a  good 
idea  at  all  to  stop  the  concerts  at 
the  Coliseum.  There  aren't  many 
activities  for  teenagers  these 
days  the  concerts  were  some- 
thing   to    do    once     in    awhile 

"I'm  sure  they  had  some 
trouble  with  dope  at  the  con- 
certs," Val  continued,  "but  oth- 
er than  that,  things  were  kept 
pretty  orderly  and  there  usually 
wasn't  any  trouble.  Dope  is  a 
maior  issue  these  days  and  stop- 
ping the  concerts  isn't  going  to 
help  with  that  problem." 

Another  student,  Joyce  Dun- 
lap,  thinks  the  rock  concerts 
should  definitely  continue  "The 
kids  must  have  some  recreation, 
and  this  city  really  has  nothing 
for  the  youth  as  it  is.  The 
concerts  provide  us  with  a  little 


excitement.  Now  they  want  to 
do  away  with  them.  If  it's  the 
drug  problem  they're  worried 
about,  the  kids  who  want  to 
smoke  are  going  to  do  it  any- 
way, stopping  the  concerts 
won't  help."

Teachers  postpone  strike 
until  next  fall 


by  Janet  Bell 

An  impending  strike  by  the  Fori  Wayne  Community  School's 
teachers  has  now  been  delayed  until  fall.  Fort  Wayne's  teachers  have 
been  underpaid,  undermined  and  literally  under  the  desk  due  to  lack 
of  discipline. 

It's  a  known  fact  that  trHucators  nearly  everywhere  are  some  of 
the  lowest  paid  citizens  in  our  country  today.  Teachers  have  for 
years  been  victims  of  their  School  Board's  budget  and  demand  for 
compliance  with  the  contract. 

Topics  similar  to  these  were  discussed  at  a  mass  public  meeting 
Monday,  May  21.  At  this  meeting  the  teachers  related  their 
grievances  and  decided  to  postpone  a  strike  vote  until  next  fall.  - 

A  disturbing  and  real  gripe  of  many  of  Fort  Wayne's  1,800 
teachers  is  that  of  discipline.  Actually,  teachers  have  few  rights  when 
a  discipline  problem  gets  out  of  hand.  Some  of  the  city's  educators 
have  been  threatened  with  their  job  and,  in  one  case,  lost  it  due  to 
overstepping  his  bounds  by  using  self-discipline. 

After  the  gathering  Monday  night  at  Snider,  the  group  decided 
crucial  items  were  the  discipline  code,  due  process  tor  teachers, 
curriculum  input,  class  size  and  increase  m  pay. 

The  Fort  Wayne  School  Board  and  the  teachers  have  reached  an 
impasse  because  of  the  Board's  refusal  to  bargain  anything  other 
than  teacher's  salary  and  salary  related  fringe  benefits. 

Hopefully,  our  teachers  will  stand  together  and  break  through  the 
various  reslrami-,  ili.n  ihey  have  been  burdened  with  for  years

lightly,  staying  in  direct  sunlight 
for  only  15  minutes  the  first

forward  to  summer  as  a  time  for 
sleep,  food,  fun  and  more  sleep, 
there  are  times  when  these  days 
of  rest  and  relaxation  can  seem 
boring.  The  Fort  Wayne  Park 
Board  is  well  aware  of  this 
summertime  predicament,  so  the 
Board  has  arranged  an  assort- 
ment of  various  park  activities 
that  high  school  students  may 
find  fun  and  interesting. 
Baseball  offered 

June  18  starts  a  week  of  table 
hockey  and  horseshoe  tourna- 
ments. The  Park  Board  Baseball 
League  will  start  June  21.  The 
city  wide  high  school  band  , 
made  up  of  Fort  Wayne  students 
will  be  playing  various  concerts 
throughout    the   summer. 

Activities  have  been  sched- 
uled starting  with  all  supervised 
playgrounds  opening  June  13,

checkers,  bumperpool  sndxhess,

frisbee  competition  will  be  held 
June  10,  along  with  the  hula 
hoop  contest. 

Besides  these  activities  and

able.  When  swimming  in  crowd- 
ed areas,  watch  for  other  swim- 
mers; it's  not  difficult  to 
drown  in  a  crowd. 

Although  you  may  be  eager 
to  'jump  right  in',  don't  jump 
into  cold  water  that  will  numb 
you.  Give  your  muscles  a  chance 
to  tone  up  again  -  don't  go  all 
out  the  first  day. 
Don't  panic 

In  case  of  a  thunderstorm,  get 
out  of  thf  water  because  water 
conducts  electricity.  Above  all, 
acquaint  yourself  with  self- 
rescue  methods,  and  remain 
calm  if  you  find  yourself  in  need 
of  help. 

When  water  skiing,  always 
wear  a  ski  belt  or  life  preserver. 
If  you  fall,  recover  skis  quickly 
-  they  will  help  keep  you  afloat. 
Don't  ski  at  night  and  don't  ski 
doubles  with  different  rope 
lengths. 

Before  going  boating,  always 
make  sure  the  weather  is  satis- 
factory. Always  have  the  Coast 
Guard  approval  for  children, 
non-swimmers  and  elderly  peo- 
ple. Don't  overload  your  boat 
with    gear    and    passengers    and

before     leaving,     let     someone 
know  your  location. 

Acquaint  yourself  with  neces- 
sary equipment  and  have  it  on 
board.  Don't  smoke  when  refuel- 
ing and  allow  no  horseplay  on 
board.  Don't  mix  drmking  and 
boating. 

Head  gear  protects 

Golf  requires  skill,  concentra- 
tion, and  a  lot  of  enthusiasm. 
Many  weekend  golfers  get  ex- 
cited their  first  day  playing, 
over-exerting  themselves.  Take  it 
easy  and  always  wear  a  hat  to 
protect  yourself  against  sun 
stroke. 

Most  of  these  rules  are  based 
on  common  sense.  Be  know- 
ledgeable about  the  sport  you're 
taking  part  in.  You'll  find  your 
outdoor  activities  much  more 
enjoyable  if  you  know  how  to 
handle  them.

Basketball  returns  four 

"We  have  a  lot  of  returning 
people  next  year  but  how  well 
a  do  depends  on  how  hard  the 
players  work  this  summer  and  if 
they  want  to  really  work  hard 
during  next  year's  season,"  stat- 

"And  we  also  have  some  people    ed  basketball  coach,  Ken  Eytch- 

coming  to   us   from   the  junior    eson, 

highs  who  looV  really  good.".  "Besides   our   four   returnmg 

"Next  year  we  are  going  to    lettermen.  juniors  Kevin  Howell,

After    a    rebuilding    year 
most     of     Elmhurst's     athletic 
teams,    next    year    looks    a    bit 
more  promising. 

Although  there  is  only 'one 
returning  letterman,  sophomore 
Paul  Stephens,  there  are  many 
returning  underclassmen  and 
some  promising  freshmen  com- 
ing to  Elmhurst  next  fa' 
Strong  team  promised 

"We   will    be   much    stronger 
next  year."  stated  coach  LoKr, 


Close  Race 


Sophomore  Gary  Howard  qualified  for  the  state  finals  by  finish- 
ing second  in  both  the  high  and  the  low  hurdles.  Gary  set  a  new 
school  record  for  the  high  hurdles  in  14.0  seconds. 


"For  anyone  who  is  inter- 
ested in  running,  there  will  be  a 
meeting  after  school  in  our  cafe- 
teria, June  4.  Also,  we  encourage 
any  girls  who  are  interested  in 
running  for  us  to  come  out." 
smiled  the  coach, 
Football  team  rebuilds 

"We  are  mostly  going  to  have 
a  young  team  next  year  built 
around  our  six  returning  letter- 
men."  said  football  coach  Skeets 
Hoover 


Taylor,    we    have 
number  of  good  upcoming  soph- 
omores and  reserves  who  can  fit 
in  well," 


"Although  we  had  a  respec-- 
table  9-3  record  this  was  a 
rebuilding  year,"  remarked 
coach  Jim  Welborn. 

"Next  year  we  will  have  27 
returning  guys  and  8  returning 
lettermen.  We  are  hoping  to 
better  our  team  standing  of  a 
year  ago  vVhen  we  were  regional 
champs  and  finished  fifth  in  the 
state. 

■'The  wrestlers  who  are  not 
participating  in  spring  sports 
now  are  lifting  weights  every

sful. 

"During  the  summer  the

Baseball  team  drops  two  games 


Elmhurst's  baseball  team  closed 
om  its  regular  season  with  losses  to 
Bishop  Luer^  and  Snider,  extending 
its  losing  streak  to  four  games. 

In  the  Tuesday  contest  at  City 
Utilities  Park.  Elmhurst  fell  to  Sni- 
der, 5-2  The  Panthers,  who  finished 
last  in  the  citv  with  a  4-16  record, 
jumped  on  junior  pitcher  Bernie 
Kampschmit  for  five  runs  in  the  first 
four  inning. 

The  Troians  could  only  retaliate  in 
the  third  and  seventh  innings  when 
their  onlv  two  runs  of  the  game 
came.  Sophomore  Dave  Campbell  led 
the  seven  hit  attack  with  two  safeties 
for  Elmhurst, 
Knights  defeat  Trojans 

After  being  humiliated  18-0  in 
their  last  atv  series  meeting  with 
Bishop  Luers,  Elmhurst  quickly  took 
a  1-0  in  the  top  of  the  first.  This  lead 
was  short-lived,  however,  as  the 
Knights  pounced  on  Sophomore  star- 
ter Lynn  Brown -for  three  runs  in  the 
bottom  of  the  same  inning.  The  big 
blow    was    dealt     by    the    opposing 


catcher  John  Tesaula.  Two  more  runs 
in  the  fifth  prompted  coach  Bill 
Derbyshire  to  replace  Brown  with 
Kampschmidt. 

The  loss  dropped  Elmhurst's  final 
record  to  a  disappointing  9-in  and 
4-5  in  the  city  series  action. 
Nines  to  meet  Bruins 

The  most  formidable  team  in  the 
city  this  year  has  definately  been 
Northrop.  The  state-ranked  Brums, 
who  beat  the  Trojans  in  two  confron- 
tations this  year,  clo^  their  regular 
season  with  a  perfect  8-0  mark  in  city 
series  action  while  compiling  a  17-3 
record  overall. 

The  Trojans  hope  to  break  out  of 
their  slump  in  sectional  activity  this 
week.  Unlike  most  city  teams,  they 
will   travel   all   the  way  to  Colunibia 


City  to  compete.  The  host  school  is 
the  team  that  Elmhurst  will  attempt 
to  knock  off  as  they  reign  as  defend- 
ing champions
