Earson Crowned Homecoming Queen 



Homecoming 1971 is now over, and for the 
most part, was very much a success. 

Miss Susie Erson was crowned Queen 
during the lunch hour on Friday by Ellen 
Ramage, 1970 Homecoming Queen. Assisting 
in the ceremony was Gene Waters, SGA 
President. Included in the Court were: Linda 
Cubbege, First runner-up; Paullette Kaluzne 
and Melinda Paige, second runners-up; 
Barbara Smith, Debbie Bryant, and Linda 
Walker, third runners-up; and Emma 
Thompson, fourth runner-up. -Twenty -one 
girls competed for the title. 

The Student Government sponsored a free 
concert with local stars Bill and Lauretta 
Friday night in the Student Center. Ap- 
proximately 150 people attended this concert. 

Saturday morning featured a parade from 
Daffin Park to the College, It was felt that 
more people would be in that part of town on a 
Saturday morning rather than downtown, so 




the traditional parade route was rejected for 
ihe one followed. 

Floats were entered by Alpha Gamma 
Delta, Pi Kappa Alpha, Phi Mu, Sigma 
Kappa, and the Senior Class. In addition, the 
Homecoming Queen and her Court rode in 
convertibles in the parade. 

Billy Butler and the Pi Kappa Alpha float 
won first prize in the float competition. The 
win was especially sweet for Butler since he 
folded toilet paper flowers all night. Alpha 
Gamma Delta won second prize. 

Before the basketball game the Senior 
Class sponsored a barbecue. That is all that 
can be said for that. 

At half-time the contestants, Court, and 
Queen were presented to the spectators. 
Following the game the Homecoming Dance 
was held. Due to the efforts of the Alumni 
Affairs Office, several alumni came back for 
this homecoming dance.

ASC Offers Journalism Course 



A former newspaperman and 
journalism instructor has been 
chosen to teach a new jour- 
nalism course to be offered at 
Armstrong next quarter. 

He is Hugh R. Brown, 
assistant professor of English 
and a former journalist of many 
news publications across the 
country, including the 
''Savannah Morning News." 

The new course will be listed 
as ''Journalism 227, Journalism 
Lab," and will be structured 
similarly to the speech lab now 
offered Both are one-hour 
courses, requiring three hours 
of work each week.. The new 
course will center around 
working on the College 



newspaper, ki The Inkwell," 

Mr. Brown, who graduated 
from Armstrong Junior College 
in 1948, received his B. S. from 
Zavier University and M. A. T. 
from St. Michaels College. He 
has 13 years experience in the 
field of journalism. In addition 
to a magazine in Washington, D. 
C, he has also written for 
newspapers in Chicago, 
Milwaukee, San Diego, Los 
Angeles, Hollywood, and Boise, 
Idaho. In Africa, he taught 
journalism on the junior college 
level for four years. 

The announcement of the new 
course, which will begin Spring 
Quarter, was made last week by 
English Department Head 



Hugh Pendexter. III. In- 
struction will include news 
reporting, the writing of news 
stories, features, and editorials, 
and photography and art work, 
Dr. Pendexter said. He added 
that layout and editing of all 
types will also be covered, in 
conjunction with the weekly 
publishing of "The Inkwell."

Bertrand Speaks to ACS 



The Armstrong State College 
Affiliate Chapter of the 
American Chemical Society 
held a dinner-meeting on 
January 28th in the Memorial 
Student Center. The Chapter 
had as its guest speaker Dr, J. 



A. Bertrand, Professor of 
Chemistry at Georgia Tech. 

Dr. Bertrand, who received 
his doctorate in Chemistry at 
Tulane University and did post- 
doctoral work in X-ray dif- 
fraction at Massachusetts In- 




stitututeof Technology, gave an 
extremely interesting and in- 
formative seminar on the 
determination of crystal 
structure by X-ray diffraction. 

In his seminar Dr. Bertrand 
stressed the physical theory and 
instrumental methods upon 
which his work in crystalling 
structure determination were 
based. A large part of his 
seminar was devoted to the 
application of computer 
technology in the solving of 
structural problems. He made 
excellent use of photographic 
slides it which he made him- 
self) and three dimensional 
models in describing the 
structures themselves. 

Dr. Bertrand, who was 
visiting Savannah for the first 
time, was taken on a tour of the 
city by Dr F. G. Crider, Head of 
Armstrong's Chemistry 
Department, and the chairman 
and secretary of the Student 
Affiliate Chapter. 



Mondays and Wednesdays from 
1:30 till 3:20. The topic of the 
seminar will be "The Crusade 
Movement and its significance 
in the Middle Ages/ 1 

Students will explore in depth 
various aspects of this topic, 
discuss their findings in class 
and present the results of their 
investigation in an anotated 
research paper. 

Some advanced work History 
would be necessary for a 
student to participate in this 
course { History 300 and-or 344 
are recommended but not 
required). 

A reading knowledge of Latin, 
French, German or Spanish 
would be useful but is not 
required. 

Enrollment in this course will 
be strictly limited as to number 
and requires the permission of 
the instructor, Professor 
Bernard Comaskey. 

Interested students are ad- 
vised to contact Professor 
Comaskey in Victor Hall room 
2-166 or the History Department 



strong were Terence Syden, Bill 
Butler, and Bill Richardson. In 
addition to the Armstrong 
group, conservationists from all 
over the state attended in- 
cluding Dr. Odum, the famed 
Ecologist from the University of 
Georgia. 

According to Mike Horovitz, 
SOS Vice-Chairman, "Mirex is 
a clorinated hydrocarbon that is 
similar to DDT. When dumped 
in the marshes, very low con* 
centrattons of mirex have been 
found to be deadly to young 
crabs and shrimp/' 

It is felt that not enough is 
known about Mirex 'to warrant 
new laws allowing it to be 
dropped over the entire state of 
Georgia. In addition there is a 
question as to whether fire ants 
are that much of a pest. 

Horovitz also stated that 
Mirex is "believed to be taken 
up into the biological food 
chains, and it is possible that it 
becomes concentrated in 
animal tissue." 

Originally the subcommittee 
was asked for 1.5 million for 
Mirex, However, it is now felt 
that this proposed budget will 
be drastically cut.

Stage Band 



ARMSTRONG STATE COLLEGE 



The INKWELL would like to commend Dr. Lawson and the Stage 
Band on the job they have done by providing entertainment and 
spirit at the basketball games. This is especially evident at the 
Georgia Southern game where, for the first time, the entire student 
body was on its feet m vocal support for the Bites' effort. The origin 
of this enthusiasm is the stage band. With its original cheers and 
pulsing rhythm, the band has managed to help spread a kind of spirit 
but most ASC students have never seen. 



Guest Editorial 



One is required to attend 
school. We are put into an 
educational system consisting 
of elementary and secondary 
school. We are told that we 
must attend. Placed in a 
system which does not prepare 
adolescents for their future, it is 
required for survival in this 
modern society. 

Students • are now seeking 
this additional education — 
something to help them meet 
the demands of our modern 
society. It is this additional 
education, a college degree, 
that is required to teach school, 
practice medicine, pharmacy, 
law and social work. A college 
education has become a 
prerequisite for many areas of 
public service-to help our 
fellow man. Experts are 
needed in all areas of our social 
society. These experts come 
from colleges. People now 
WANT to go to college so thay 
can become these "experts"-6o 
they can help alleviate this 
nation s social needs. 

But now a move is under way 



to remove the privilege of 
seeking a college education 
from the public. President 
Nixon no longer wants male 
students in our colleges. Mr. 
Nixon wants male students on 
the battle field in Vietnam-not 
in classrooms learning how to 
cope with the problems we have 
in America. Dr. Tarr, Selective 
Service Director, agrees with 
the Administration's idea of not 
granting any more student 
deferments. That means 
stopping the learning process- 
stopping one from seeking a 
college education. I can't 
believe it. In America, a high 
school student will not be 
allowed to go to college. 

If this proposal meets 
congressional approval, student 
deferments will cease. The 
government will tell you that 
you can't go to college-Is this 
really happening in the United 
States? 

This could have an important 
effect on our country-let your 
congressman know how you 
feel. 




Dean's Advisory Council 



SUPPORT THE PIRATES 



The Dean's Advisory Council 
met for the third time this year 
on Monday, February 1, 1971. 
Dean Adams presided. 

Dean Adams reported on the 
progress he and Dean Propst 
have made on the problems 
discussed at the last meeting on 
January 18. 

Vending Machine problem: A 
new can drink machine has 
been placed in the Old Student 
Center to handle more 
customers-especially night 
students. The coin changer has 
been fixed and provisions have 
been made if any of the 
machines become faulty. 

Free phone usage on the 
Armstrong campus for 




students: The council was 
informed that free phones 
would tie up the limited number 
of telephone lines going out 
from Armstrong; that adding 
new trunk lines and non-pay 
phones would be very ex- 
pensive, and that money for the 
idea would have to come fiom the 
student activity fund and not 
from the college fund. 

A direct telephone line to the 
Armstrong Library and a 
system to handle mecrgone y 
telephone calls coming into 
Armstrong after 5 P.M.; Dr. 
Adams is still working on the 
idea. 

The Honor Council and the 
Honor Code: Dr. Henry Ash- 
more has appointed a com- 
mission to study the Honor 
Council and Code. The Com- 
mission is headed by Dr. Stuart 
Worthington and members 
include Dr. Clark, Mr. Noble, 
Gigi Graham, and Susan Erson. 

P. 0. Boxes not working in the 
Old Student Center: There is a 
surplus of boxes now in the Old 
Student Center. If you have one 
that does not work properly- 
apply for a new one. 

Bad lighting in the Old 



Student Center: Reports in- 
dicate that the lighting is suf- 
ficient to eat by, but insufficient 
for study purposes. Cost for 
new lighting to enable studying 
would be approximately $1,000, 
and the college does not have 
the money this year. 

Eliminating the W (with 
draw) grade: Dean Adams 
stated that the W grade is 
necessary in evaluating a 
student and his academic 
record. He also said that it was 
vital in keeping the record 
straight. 

Library Copier: when the 
library copier is not working, 
students may bring material to 
the desk from 8 A.M. to 5 P.M. 
and the desk attendant will 
photo-copy it for 10 cents a 
page. A question was raised as 
to why night students were 
excluded. The need for a better 
model <copying; machine was 
brought up. 

Bookstore: the system the 
bookstore uses to sell books at 
the beginning of each quarter 
needs to be revamped. There is 
a need for a second-hand book 
store or the equivalent. It is 
against school policy for faculty 
to change textbooks before 
giving a year's notice. If this 
policy is violated, it should be 
jreportedl immediately to the 
Dean of the school.

Symphony Has Guest Conductor 



THURSDAY. FEBRUARY 11, 1971 - PAGE 3 



Five-time Academy Award 
winner John Green, composer 
and pianist, will appear as 
Guest Conductor of the 
Savannah Symphony Orchestra 
Wednesday evening, March 10, 
at 8:30 p.m. at the Savannah 
City Auditorium. Reservations 
are immediately available by 
phoning the auditorium at 232- 

SGA Reports 

Student Government has been 
working to have improvements 
made in our Library. Im- 
provements were requested by 
the President's cabinet during a 
luncheon with President Ash- 
more held fall quarter. This 
request lead to meetings with 
the Library :staff. and Dean 
Propst on behalf of Student 
Government. 

The Senate appointed Ralph 
Finnegan, Senior Class Vice 
President to work with a 
committee concerning im- 
provements. Ralph and I have 
been meeting with President 
Ashmore, Dean Propst and 
Mrs. Yoast in seeking 'im- 
provements." The ad- 
ministration of the College has 
approved the recommendations 
of Student Government. 
Students will find some im- 
provements in the process now, 
while others are in the planning 
stages. 

Library hours have been 
increased one half hour at night, 
and students no longer have to 
surrender personal property 
(ID card) to use study rooms. 
Since the copying machine 
stays "uut of order", the library 
has consented to the use of their 
copier from 8 A.M. to 5 P.M., 
Monday through Friday (a 
qualified librarian must operate 
the machine). Sorry, night time 
students--sorry weekend 
studiers--we*U continue our 
efforts to find a copier for you! 

Other improvements which 
should soon be available con- 
sist ! of an extra reference 
librarian, additional study 
rooms, removal of typewriters 
and "curriculum lab" books 
from study rooms. 

A reference librarian is being 
sought to work at night. 
Presently we have one 
reference librarian for the day 
shift only, which puts a bind on 
those seeking assistance at 
night. 

Temporary partitions are 
going to be placed in two study 
rooms so as to increase 
available study rooms by two. 

Typing may only be done in 
the faculty-study carrels so as 
to allow proper use of con- 
ference rooms. The Education 
Department's "curriculum 
lab" will be moved out of the 
study room and put on shelves 
to be added on the outside walls 
of the study rooms. This will 
put the books out in the open 
library area with the rest of the 
books-where they belong. 

Such corrections as lighting 
and climate control require 
major budgetary consideration 
and, therefore, are probably not 
available for students' benefit 
until later. 



0987. 

The program, t4 From 
Broadway to Hollywood," was 
arranged and orchestrated 
primarily by Green and in- 
cludes many popular com- 
positions of Broadway's

Jon Green was graduated in 
economics from Harvard 
University at age 19. His works 
in their larger forms have been 
performed by major orchestras

Mardi Gras To Be Canceled? 



Reports from New Orleans 
say that a few weeks ago the 
local police went to City Council 
asking that the traditional 
Mardi Gras Festival, scheduled 
for February 20-23 this year, be 
canceled. 

The reason: local law en- 
forcement officials are an- 
ticipating the "invasion" of 
300,000 "long-hairs" for the 
festival, and are remembering 
the rowdy celebration last year, 
in which "Mr. New Orleans," Al 
Hirt , was hit in the mouth with a 
brick while riding on a parade 
float. And that was one of the 
less spectacular events of the 
holiday last year. 

But since the City refused to 
call off this year's observance 
of the ancient celebration, the 
police are demanding triple- 

Alpha Gam News 

Last Thursday at 12:30 Alpha 
Gam ribboned one more 
prospective pledge, Linda Woo. 
Unfortunately, due to the senate 
meeting, some of the sisters 
were unable to be there. Linda 
was pledged Monday night and 
welcomed to the fold. 

At the game Saturday night, 
there was a spot of hysterical 
happiness in the stands right 
after the announcement that 
Alpha Gam's homecoming float 
won second prize. Credit goes 
especially to Rosemary 
Thompson, Teresa Brown, 
Becky Pruitt,. Teresa Rahn, 
Mildred Deal, and all the sisters 
who helped put the float 
together. 

Due to a slight lack of com- 
munication somewhere, Alpha 
Gam's prize-winning maroon 
and gold Pirate flat was not 
judged in the banner* com- 
petition. Designed and created 
by Mildred Deal and Lynn 
Leggett, and waved by Fran- 
cine, it sometimes blocked out 
parts of the action of the game, 
but that's a small price to pay. 

Rumor has it that Dan Grant 
has given Nancy Breland a ring. 

However, the diamond 1 is

Nancy's smile. 



time pay for work they will do 
during the festival. And they 
claim they will go on strike if 
they don't get it. 

One way or the other, New 
Orleans is where it's happening 
February 20-23. 



Checks? 



Checks may now be caused by 
students in the Student Center. 
This policy was stopped a 
month ago by the Business 
Office. The Business Office 
took this position at the 
recommendation of the State 

Auditor*; 

The Executive Committee of 
SGA protested this action to the 
Administration. It was 
discovered that there was a 
misunderstanding about the 
Auditor's policy, and SGA was 
told that the old procedure could 
be put into effect, with certain 
guilelines. if SGA would 
estabish a sinking fund to cover 
the possibility of "bad checks." 
SGA has agreed to this because 
it feels that students should be 
able to cash checks on this 
campus.

Rod Powell was recently 
elected President of the Arm- 
strong State College Chess Club. 

At the same meeting Dan 
Baisden was elected Secretary- 
Treasurer, and Dr. Hugh

Three Phi Mus, Valerie 
Tarver, Susan Erson, and 
Louisa Browne were among 
several ASC students attending 
and coordinating the SUSGA 
Convention at the DeSoto Hilton 
the last weekend in January. 

Louisa headed a group 
discussion of "Political Elec- 
tions and Activities on Cam- 
pus." Valerie and Susan were 
hostesses at the several social 
functions during the weekend, 



and they represented Arm- 
strong in the group discussions. 

The Washboard Band was 
featured on Phi Mu's 
Homecoming Float last 
Saturday. They performed 
throughout the parade route. 
The band also performed at 
half-time during the ASC -

Homecoming Sucessful 



Pirates Overwhelm Bucs 



The Armstrong State Pirates 
climaxed Homecoming 
festivities last Saturday night 
by walloping the Florida Tech 
Engineers 102 to 64. In the 
process of blowing FIT off the 
court, the Pirates set a new 
team record for the largest 
margin of victory. The 38 point 
victory was good enough to 
break the previous record of 25 
points set in 1967 against the 
University of North Carolina at 

Charlotte. Ths victory boosted 
ASC's record to 11 wins and 7 
losses. 

The Pirates started the game 
at a rapid pace and were able to 



quickly pull ahead of FIT. The 
Pirates never trailed FIT 
during the entire game. Except 
for one time in the closing 
minutes of thefirst half. Flonoa 
Tech failed (o even put Abe s 
lead in jeopardy. At the end of 
the first half, Armstrong lead 42 
to 35. 

In the . second 4 half, Arm- 
strong continued to increase 
their lead with fast breaks and 
goodshootingpercentages. The 
climax of the game came when 
Jody Laing scored the one 
hundredth point on an assisted 

lay-up from Howie Leon in the 
last minute of the game. Arm- 
strong's point total of 102 is also 



a record for the most points 
scored by ASC in their gym 
since becoming a four year 
school. 

Saturday's night game was 
one of those games in which 
every body! looked good. 
Notably, Brad Becker came off 
the bench to replace David Rich 
who was slightly injured in the 
first half. Becker shot a 
phenomenal 70 per cent from 
the floor and scored 14 points. 
Larry Burke, playing in his last 
Homecoming game at ASC, 
scored 15 points to claim run- 
ner-up scoring honors and 
pulled down 6 rebounds. Ron 
Hancock and Lauren West also 
played exceptional games. 



Statistically for ASC, it was 
again Steve Holland who 
claimed top scoring honors with 
23. Holland also lead the team 
in assists with 8; followed by 
Brad Becker with 6. Over in the 
rebounding department, 
Lauren West claimed top 



ARMSTRONG STATE COLLEGE 

honors with 11 caroms; followed 
by Stan Sammons with 9 and 
Ron "Skippy" Hancock with 8. 
As a team, Armstrong out 
rebounded the Engineers 50 to 
43. The Pirates also bettered 
FIT in shooting percentages. 
Armstrong hit on 43 of 91 shots 



for 43 per cent while Florida 
Tech was only able to muster a 
poor 32 per cent. In fact the only 
thing FIT managed to beat 
Armstrong in was turnovers. 
They turned the ball over 23 
times while ASC kept their floor 
mistakes to 11. 



Eagles Bomb ASC Pirates 



For what is believed to be the 
first time in the history of the 
school. Armstrong filled the 
gym to standing room only last 
Tuesday night against Georgia 
Southern College. An estimated 
200,000 south east Georgian 
viewers watched on WJCL 
television while the Eagles 
dealt ASC their seventh loss of 
the season, 71 to 58. This defeat 
brought Armstrong's record to 
10 wins and 7 losses ; still well 
above the .500 mark. 

From the start ASC was 
playing with the handicaps of 
sickness and injuries. Tom 
Jenkins, ASC's leading 
re bounder, was out with double 
trouble-* combination of a 
chest infection and a severe 
attack of influenza. Steve 
Holland, who played all but five 
minutes of the game, also had a 
mild touch of the flu and was 
unable to play at full strength. 
Brad Becker played with a 
double combination of an angle 
injury and the flu. To finish the 
injury list , Robert Bradley had 
to play the entire game with 5 
stitches in his finger. Robert 
received the stitches as a result 
of a mishap in the Baptist 
College game of Jan. 30. For a 
while, Coach Alexander wasn't 
sure whether he was running a 



hospital or a basketball 
program. 

Coach Alexander question did 
not remain unanswered for 
long. The Pirates started the 
first half in a blaze. From the 
tip-off, it was evident that ASC 
was out to win this game in spite 
of the flu and the injuries. 
During the first half, the Pirates 
out rebounded, out scored, and 
out hustled Georgia Southern. 
The first 20 minutes went by 
rapidly with both teams 
swapping baskets. The taller 
Eagles were unable to gain any 
advantage over ASCs deter- 
mined efforts. 

The second half proved to be a 
different story for Armstrong as 
GSC uncorked for 53 points. 
Armstrong > trouble started 
with Georgia Southern's zone 
press. The Eagles succeeded 
time after time in trapping and 
tying up Armstrong's players. 
Holland perhaps had his most 
frustrating game of the year as 
he was unable to find the key to 
GSC's trapping defense. 

Lake the other ASC players, 
Steve found it hard to get the 
ball down court and even harder 
to get open for shots. Georgia 
Southern, displaying perhaps 
the best defense ASC has seen 



this year, slowly pulled away 
from the aching Pirates. After 
four minutes of the second half, 
Armstrong fell behind, was 
forced to terminate their game 
plan, and play catch-up ball. 
For all practical purposes, the
