2  .  THE  SOUTHERN  ACCENT  Thursday,  September  6,  1979 


Opinions 


editorial 


The  Southern  Accent  is  a  paper  for  the  whole  student  body, 
but  it  is  impossible  to  satisfy  everyong  on  campus,  so  we're 
going  to  try  our  best  to  please  as  many  readers  as  possible. 

The  only  way  we  can  improve  The  Southern  Accent  is  if 
you — the  reader — responds.  We  want  to  get  you  involved  in 
The  Southern  Accent.  We  have  a  free  classified  ad  section  for 
you  to  make  your  announcements  and  to  send  messages  to 
friends.  Also,  we  want  to  get  your  opinion  on  campus  issues  in 
the  Street  Beat  column.  And,  of  course,  ther's  the  "Letters  to 
the  Editor"  page  for  you  to  respond  to  things  happening  in  The 
Southern  Accent  or  on  campus. 

The  first  question  some  of  you  probably  will  ask  is  "Why  have 
advertisements.?"  Without  the  support  of  our  advertisers  we'd 
have  to  get  an  additional  appropriation  of  $2,500  from  the 
Student  Association.  This  would  inevitably  reduce  the  services 
offered  by  your  SA.  We  will  not,  however,  fill  the  Accent  full  of 
advertisements  without  adding  extra  pages. 

With  the  support  of  you  and  our  advertisers  we  are  going  to 
try  to  make  this  the  best  Accent  published  in  the  past  34  years.

at  several  high  schools  and 
worked  as  a  self-employed 
building  contractor.  Francis 
Hummer,  originally  from 
Hagerstown,  Maryland,  is  not 


really  new  to  SMC.  He  has 
done  part-time  instructing 
here  for  the  past  three  semes- 
ters, but  this  year  he  is 
teaching  all  the  auto  body 
classes  full-time,  along  with 
welding  and  painting.

New  Fine   Arts  Complex 
Ready   to  Break  Ground 


DDebra  Gainer 

The  important-looking  sign 
on  the  north  lawn  of  Talge 
Hall  marks  the  spot  of  the 
proposed  new  Fine  Arts  Com- 
plex. Construction  is  sched- 
uled to  begin  early  this  fall. 

The  estimated  cost  of  the 
complex  is  S3. 3  million. 
Approximately  $2.7  million  of 
I  that  figure  has  already  been 
raised.  A  single  company  in 
Chattanooga  donated 
5250,000.  The  fund-raising 
campaign  has  been  entitled 
"Project  80."  Its  chairman  is 
O.  D.  McKee.  1928  graduate 
of  SMC  and  chairman  of  the 
board  of  McKee  Baking  Com- 
pany. 

The  complex  will  consoli- 
date the  music  department 
under  one  roof;  music  classes 
now  meet  in  five  different 
locations.  New  buildings  will 
also  house  the  art  department, 


which  meets  in  the  basement 
of  Jones  Hall,  and  the  com- 
munication department,  now 
using  one  of  SMC's  oldest 
buildings. 

The  first  building  to  be 
constructed  will  be  the  music 
center.  !t  will  house  a  400  seat 
recital  hall  with  a  tracker 
organ,  class  and  practice 
rooms,  and  offices.  Ground- 
breaking for  the  project  will  be 
during  chapel  on  Thursday, 
Sept.  13. 

Gifts  and  pledges  are  still 
coming  in  from  SMC  faculty 
and  staff,  alumni,  and  various 
individuals,  corporations,  and 
foundations  in  the  area.  It  has

$10  Million   Lawsuit 
Against  SMC  Dismissed 


Finding  that  the  sandlot 
football  game  in  which  a 
Southern  Missionary  College 
student  received  crippling  in- 
juries was  played  in  violation 
of  school  policy,  U.S.  District 
Judge  Frank  Wilson  on  Mon- 
day dismissed  the  student's 
SlO-million  lawsuit  against  the 
school. 

In  the  lawsuit  Randall 
Peterson  of  Miami,  Fla.,  a 
former  student,  said  the 
school  was  negligent  in  allow- 
ing the  tackle  football  game  to 
be  played  and  in  failing  to 
warn  Peterson  that  he  could,

warnings,"  he  remembers.  missionary  in  Nicaragua.    He 

On  May  29,    1979.   Robert  planned  to  do  construction  and 


mechanical  work  at  the  Tas- 
bah  Raya  Mission  and  to 
transport  nurses  to  and  from 
local  villages. 

"When  my  plane  landed  I 
could  tell  that  there  was  some 
tension  and  anxiety  among  the 


passengers,"  says  VanRaden. 
"but  they  were  all  speaking 
Spanish.  Later  I  found  out 
that  a  few  days  before,  a  plane 
had  either  been  shot  down  or 
riddled  with  machine  gun  fire 
after  it  landed." 

When  VanRaden  arrived  he 
knew  nothing  of  the  country's 
revolutionary  war  to  over- 
throw the  president  of  Nica- 
ragua. The  plane  would  make 
only  a  quick  stop  in  the 
capitol,  Managua,  before  de- 
parting to  Porto  Cabesas, 
about  60  miles  from  the  Tas- 
bah  Raya  Mission. 

Upon  landing  in  Managua, 
VanRaden  was  informed  that 
he  would  not  be  able  to 
continue  his  flight  to  the 
mission  because  of  fighting  in 
Porto  Cabesas.  All  flights 
landing  there  or  even  going  in 
that  direction  were  discon- 
tinued. A  few  flights  were 
leaving  Managua  for  the  US 
and  other  countries,  but  Van- 


Raden decided  to  stay  and  see 
what  the  future  would  bring. 
Elder  Robert  Eubanks,  con- 
ference president  of  Nica- 
ragua, invited  him  to  his  home 
and  there  VanRaden  decided 
to  wait  and  see  whether  the 
fighting  would  slow  down. 
.  During  his  two  weeks  there, 
Robert  worked  for  the  con- 
work.  He  was  forced  to  stop  at 
the  beginning  of  the  second 
weel  because  the  Sandinistas 
had  threatened  to  bum  down 
any  business  that  allowed 
normal  work  to  go  on. 

Even  during  all  this,  Robert 
still  wanted  to  go  on  to  the 
mission;  he  felt  that  if  he 
made  it  there  he'd  be  safe 
even  though  fighting  was 
going  on  60  miles  from  Tasbah 
Raya.  Unfortunately,  circum- 
stances were  getting  worse 
instead  of  berter.  Robert  and 
Elder  Eubanks  discussed  the 
situation  and  with  mixed  feel- 
ings decided  that  it  would  be 
best  for  Robert  to  return  to  the 
US  until  things  sertled  down  in 
Nicaragua. 

The  threat  from  the  Sandi- 
nistas wasn't  the  only  draw- 
back to  staying.  The  continual 
firing  that  was  becoming 


and 


around  Managua  seemed 
be  another  sign  for  Robert  to 
return  to  the  States.  Once  he 
even  came  close  to  being  hit 
when  an  unannounced  array  of 
bullets  came  from  nowhere 
towards  him  and  a  guard  he 
was  talking  with.  Managua 
was  becoming  less  and  less 


But  there  was  also  the 
problem  of  getting  out  of  the 
country.  The  American  Em- 
bassy had  called  VanRaden 
and  made  arrangements  for 
him  to  leave  on  a  US  military 
cargo  plane,  but  the  Sandi- 
nistas had  demoHshed  roads 
and  burned  cars  and  tnicks, 
making  road  blocks  in  many 
places. 

Robert  was  escorted  to  the 
airport — a  secret  one  used 
only  for  top  officials — by  a 
caravan  of  about  10  cars  and 
trucks  can7ing  other  passen- 
gers also  leaving  Nicaragua. 

"I  remember  looking  out 
the  window  and  seeing  dead 
bodies  laying  along  the  side  of 
the  road,"  says  VanRaden.  "I 
was  just  thankful  that  1  wasn't 
one  of  them."  He  later 
learned  that  many  of  his 
friends  and  relatives  had 
known  of  his  predicament  and 
had  been  praying  for  him.  He 
feels  that  was  one  reason  for 
his  safe  return  to  the  States. 

Now  back  as  SMC,  Van- 
Raden  still  wants  to  return  to 
Nicaragua.  "No  other  place 
would  be  quite  as  good  for  me 
in  the  mission  field,  because  I 
could  do  what  I  love  to  do 
there — construction  and  auto

6  -  THE  SOUTHERN  ACCENT  Thursday.  September  6,  1979 


Student  Comes   Through  Registration   Alive 


"Get  up  you  scurvy  dogs." 
The  guard  walked  down  the 
long  corridor  waking  up  the 
sleeping  prisoners. 

I  have  only  been  here  a 
week  and  already  the  most 
dreadful  day  of  ray  life  was 
here.  We  dressed  in  our  light 
gray  uniforms  and  assembled 
in  the  dining  hall  for  break- 
fast. No  one  spoke.  No  one 
could  believe  they  would  sink 
into  such  depths  of  cruelty-  I 
used  to  eat  food  like  this,  but 
then  my  dad  got  a  job.  (used 
by  permission  of  Lou  Owens, 
Inc.) 

After  "breakfast"  we  were 
marched  over  to  the  '  'big 
house"  and  took  our  places  at 
the  end  of  the  already  long 
lines.  While  we  waited  in  the 
heat  of  the  rising  sun  we  had 
plenty  oftime  to  think.  Would 
I  come  out  alive?  Will  my 
parents  still  be  financially 
secure?  And  most  impor- 
tantly, would  I  get  the  classes 


Steven  dickerhoff 


I  wanted? 

Once  inside  1  preceded  to 
"Step  One"  where  I  showed 
the  lady  my  registration  pass 
and  ID  card  (you  know,  the 
thing  with  the  fantastic  picture 
of  you  on  it  ).  Next,  I  went 
straight  to  my  major's  table 
and  had  my  adviser  sign  my 
carefully  planned  schedule  1 
had  laid  out  in  advance. 

Now,  the  hard  part,  signing 
up  for  those  classes  before 
they  are  filled.  There's  one 
thing  I've  learned  about  re- 
gistration— you  are  on  your 
own,  not  even  theology  majors 
will  help  you.  While  I  was 
there,     someone     announced 


over  the  PA  system  that 
Grant's  TJ  class  at  9  o'clock 
only  had  room  for  one  more. 
At  once  this  6'2",  210  lb. 
theology  student  I  know  and  a 
little  5'2".  90  lb.  freshman  girl 
made  a  dash  for  the  religion 
And  just  as  he  was 
o  reach  the  table  she 
it  her  foot  and  sent  him 
ato  the  academic  dean 
who  promptly  signed  his  Op- 
Scan  sheet. 

The  first  thing  I  did  after 
getting  my  adviser  to  okay  my 
schedule  was  to  go  to  the 
business  administration  table 
and  ask  if  Principles  of  Ac- 
counting at  9  o'clock  was  still 
open.    It  wasn't.    Now  that  I 


table, 
flying  i 


think  about  it  accounting  at  1 
o'clock  is  a  better  time  for  me. 
Next  I  went  to  the  history  table 
and  Western  Civ.  at  8  o'clock 
was  full.  So  what's  wrong 
with  the  History  of  the  CK  and 
other  oil    refineries    at    5:30 


1  walked  around  for  the  next 
hour  seeing  my  perfectly 
planned  schedule  torn  to 
shreds.  After  awhile  i  started 
walking  around  in  a  daze  and 
the  last  thing  1  remember  was 
getting  into  the  4  a.m.  section 


of  Speed  Reading  Made  Easy. 
My  friends  told  me  late" 
they  found  me  sitting  in  a 
corner  of  thegym  clutching  my 
finished  class  schedule  and 
mumbling  something  about 
Foundations  of  the  19th  Cen- 
tury   Dating    Practices    at    9 

The   next  thing   I   remem- 
bered was  sitting  in  my  first 
class  the   next  day   and  the 
teacher  taking  roll. 
"Dickerhoff,  Steven." 
"Here,  well,  almost."

Dear  Wormwad,

you  will  find  the  environment 
to  hold  enticing  opportunities 
for  perceptive  tempting,  de-

disappointments. 

Your  patient  is  a  superb 
example  of  the  advantages 
that  exist  on  the  campus.  As 
you  well  know,  he  is  a  new 
student.  This  brings  with  it 
many  promising  conditions- 
both  for  our  cause  and  for  that 
of  the  Enemy. 

One  of  your  first  and  most 
important  tools  will  be  loneli- 

rial  in  the  great  battle  for 
souls.  The  Enemy  has  contin- 
uously exploited  this  condition 
through  "friendly"  agents 
who  attract  individuals  such  as 
your  patient  to  degrading

The  1979-80  school  year  is

to  Dr.  Melvin  Campbell,  Dean 
of  Students,  all  four-year  sen-

Dr.  Campbell  stressed  that 
to  be  exempt  from  the  last

students  should  have  a  re-

Tests  Oflfered  For  Prospective  Teachers 


teacher  preparation  programs 
and  advanced  degree  candi- 
dates in  specific  fields  may 
take  the  National  Teacher 
Examinations  on  any  of  three 
different  test  dates:  Nov.  11, 
1979,  Feb.  17,  1980.  and  July 
20,  1980. 

Results  of  the  National 
Teacher  Examinations  are 
considered  by  many  large 
school  districts  as  one  of 
several  factors  in  the  selection 
of  new  teachers  and  used  by 
several  states  for  the  creden- 
tialing  of  teachers  or  licensing 
of  advanced  candidates. 
Although  it  is  not  a  require- 


ment, William  Pearson,  chair- 
man of  the  education  depart- 
ment, strongly  urges  all  senior 
education  majors  to  take  this 


On  each  full  day  of  testing, 
registrants  may  take  the  Com- 
mon Examinarions,  which

preparation  and  general  edu-

ISew  Secretarial   Pool 
Ai?ailable  For  Departments 

The  administration  has  de- 
cided to  try  its  luck  in  starting 
a  secretarial  pool  for  academic 
departments  of  the  College. 
Yvonne  Richards,  formerly 
secretary  to  the  Academic 
Dean,  will  be  the  manager  of 
the    new    Word     Processing 


"Many  departments  do  not 
have  their  own  secretaries," 
explained  Larry  Hanson,  Aca- 
demic Dean,  giving  the  reason 
for  setting  up  the  Word  Pro- 
cessing Center.  "At  this 
point,  we  don't  know  how 
much  it  will  be  used." 

The  center  will   be   hiring 


office  administration  major  to 
do  most  of  the  typing. 

Dr.  Hanson  stated  that  the 
center  hopes  to  have  a  one 
day  turnover  rate  in  the  things 
sent  to  the  center.  Rounds 
will  be  made  each  day  to  the 
different  departments  to  pick 
up  the  cassettes  and  belts. 
This  is  a  free  service  to  the 

campus. 

When  Hanson  was  asked  if 
the  Word  Processing  Center 
would  make  its  services 
available  to  students  for  re- 
search paper  typing,  he  said 
they  hadn't  thought  of  that 
possibility  yet.

Volunteers  Train  at    WSMC 


nunity 


D  Valerie  Dick 

Student    and 
volunteers  will 
nouncing  over  WSMC-FM  as 
part  of  a  new  training  pro- 

A  dozen  volunteers  have 
been  attending  a  mini  training 
course  at  WSMC  for  the  past 
few  days  to  prepare  them  to 
operate  the  equipment  and 
announce  on  the  air.  In  the 
course  they  are  taught  basic 
rules  of  broadcasting  and 
rules  of  the  Federal  Com- 
munications Commission. 

WSMC-FM  is  a  public  radio 
station  that  gets  much  of  its 
support  from  donations.  By 
using  volunteers  WSMC  can 
keep  within  its  budget  while 
providing  valuable  experience 
to  students,  faculty  members 
and  members  of  the  com- 
munity. Station  manager  Don 
Self  said  this  is  one  of  the 
main  objectives  of  the  pro- 
gram. 

This  is  not  the  first  time  the 
station  has  used  volunteers. 
"When  I  came  here,  WSMC 
i  operated  almost  entirely 


successful  Self  said  a  similar 
one  will  be  taught  later  this 
year  or  at  the  beginning  of 
next  year. 

Opportunities  for  volunteers 
are  available  not  only  in 
announcing  positions  but  also 
in  other  areas  of  station  oper- 
tions.  Self  noted  that  the 
station  is  looking  for  student 
or  community    volunteers    to 


help  with  the  preparation  and 
distribution  of  the  monthly 
program  guide.  Listen. 
Volunteers  can  also  help  with 
the  producing  and  screening 
of  some  programs. 

Those  interested  in 
donating  their  time  to  help  the 
station  in  one  capacity  or 
another  should  contact  Station 
Manager  Don  Self,

Self.  More  recently  the  sta- 
tion has  operated  with  five  full 
time  employees  and  a  staff  of 
paid  students. 

Another  value  in  the  volun- 
teer program  is  that  it  creates 
a  pool  of  trained  people  who 
will  be  considered  when  a  paid 
position  opens.  "We'll  be  of 
service  to  other  broadcasters 
in  the  area,"  Self  commented, 
as  commercial  stations  in  the 

WSMC  when  looking  for  new 
personnel.

"Best  of  the  New,"  this 
Saturday  night's  program  is 
an  SA-sponsored  event  de- 
signed to  display  the  best 
talent  of  the  new  year. 

Social  Activities  Director 
Becky  Dowell  described  the 
program  as,  "An  amateur 
talent  show — sort  of  like  what 
Ed  Sullivan  used  to  do." 

The  show  will  be  divided  into 
two  categories:  musical  num- 
bers, and  short  skits.  A  prize 
will  be  awarded  to  the  winner 
in  each  category.  Winners 
will  be  selected  according  to 


the  heartiest  applause. 

Ken  Bradley  and  Ron 
Mackey  will  host  the  show  and 
provide  some  entertainment  of 
their  own.  One  featured 
highlight  will  be  their  presen- 
tation of  a  popular  "Saturday 
Night  Live"  family,  the  Cone- 

"It  will  be  an  evening  to 
have  fun  and  to  be  wild  and 
crazy,"  explained  Dowell. 

"Best  of  the  New"  will 
begin  at  8:30  p.m.  in  the 
Physical  Education  Center, 
and  a  social  hour  is  planned 
for  after  the  program.

Sirggj  bggi  potW  gemry 

What  suggestions  or  expectations  do 
you  have  for  the  SA  this  year? 

Janell  Kirkman.  senior,  nursing.  Seattle.  Wash.:  In  the  past  the  SA  hasn't  had 
much  student  involvement. Part  of  the  reason  is  because  the  programs  weren't  what 
the  majority  of  the  students  are  really  interested  in:  i.e..  classical  concerts.  I'd  like 
to  see  them  put  a  student- elected  student  council  back  into  fiinction  to  give  us  an 
official  voice  to  the  faculty. 


GET  INVOLVEDl  I  It  s^ms  that  everyone  is  saying  that— SA 
officers.  Campus  Ministries,  Sabbath  School  superintendants 
and  even  the  deans.  Your  involvement  will  make  a  great 
difference  in  your  college  life. 

Campus  Ministries  has  different  activities  for  those  of  you 
who  need  something  to  do  on  Saturday  afternoons.  It  is  a  great 
time  to  share  your  faith  with  others.  There  are  many  different 
groups  you  could  join  if  van  wanted  a  variety— Jail  Bands, 
CABL.  Adopt-a-Grandpar«nt,  Bonny  Oaks  and  Bible  Study 
Evangelism.  This  will  not  only  benefit  those  you  are  witnessing 
to,  but  it  will  also  fulfill  your  own  spiritual  needs. 

The  Student  Association'  needs  people  to  be  on  the  various 
faculty  committees  to  represent  the  students  in  the  planning  of 
the  College.  Also  they  neei  students  to  run  for  Senate.  Some 
may  think  that  it  is  a  waste  of  time,  but  the  student's  voice  is 
heard  on  this  campus  by  the  faculty. 

There  are  also  the  Sabbath  School  and  dorm  worships  in 
which  one  can  help  out.  It  begins  to  get  mundane  seeing  the 
same  people  leading  out.  Volunteer  to  help  the  superintendents 
and  deans  in  Sabbath  School  and  worship. 

By  becoming  involved  you  will  undoubtedly  make  many  new 
friends  and  your  year  at  SMC  will  seem  to  pass  by  quickly.  Do 
your  part  to  help  the  Campus  Ministries,  Student  Association. 
Sabbath  Schools  and  your  deans.    GET  INVOLVED!!

fixed. 

Linda  Orpana,  sophomore,  nursing,  Brentford,  Ontario:  I  would  like  the  SA  to 
organize  trips  into  town  (in  vari^,  perhTps?)  for  students  who  don't  have  cars  and

banquets.  There  aren't  any  on  the  calendar  except  for  the  women's  reception  and 
married  couples'  banquets.    SA  should  sponsor  a  banquet  for  the  students. 

Rhonda  Hallock.  freshman,  behavioral  science.  Lancaster.  S.C:  I'd  like  them  to 
show  the  film,  "Other  Side  of  the  Mountain"  parts  1  and  II.  I've  heard  a  lot  of  kids 
say  they'd  like  to  see  it.  If  all  the  Saturday  nights  are  taken  you  could  show  it 
during  the  week  and  charge  admission  to  cover  expenses. 

Karen  Wilcox,  sophomore,  psychology.  Thomasville.  N.C.:  I'm  expecting  a 
widespread  involvement  among  all  the  students  this  year.  I  feel  that  there  are 
opportuniries  for  each  student— whether  old  or  new— to  participate  and  make  this 
the  BEST  year  ever. 

George  Graves,  senior,  biology.  Dunlap.  Tenn. :  My  suggestion  would  be  to  have  a 
pile  of  wood  stashed  in  the  student  park  shelter  so  that  our  neat  ole  fireplace  can 
provide  semi-outdoor  buffs  with  warmth,  cooking  potential,  and  flickering  light,

Karen  Ttmms,  senior,  nursing.  Orington.  Maine:  I'd  like  to  see  more  Positive  W^ay 
classes  and  seminar  groups  going  again  like  they  used  to  have.  SA  has  improved 
within  the  past  couple  of  years. 

Steve  Dickerhojf.  sophomore,  history.  Atlanta,  Ga. :  I  would  like  the  SA  to  plan  a 
ski  trip  to  Sugar  Mountain  in  North  Carolina.  We  could  leave  on  buses  after

The  Rich   Young  Pre-Med  Student     ?f 


The  school  year  had  begun 
with  its  usual  air  of  self- 
sufficiency  for  Bruce  C. 
Whittum.  Bruce,  a  junior 
pre-med  student  was  at  the 
pinnacle  of  everything  worthy 
of  his  attention. 

Already,  he  had  effortlessly 
■'cleaned  up"  his  opponents 
in  the  first  two  rounds  of  the

) 

His  was  the  first  name  on  the 
sign-up  sheet  for  the  matching 
episode  in  racquetball. 

Sports,  though,  was  only 
one  of  Bruce's  many  points  of 
finesse.  His  attire  was  invar- 
iably "sharp."  He  always 
looked  like  a  classy  correlation 
of  Dress  for  Success  and  GQ 
magazine. 

Bruce's  dating  status,  sur- 
prisingly, was  "unattached." 
He  reveled  In  the  realization 
that  at  least  a  score  of  Thatch- 
er's finest  waited,  hoping 
against  hope,  that  they  might 
be  the  lucky  girl  for  just  one 


Sports 


Saturday  evening. 

But.  sports,  clothes,  and 
dating  were  secondary  on  his 
list.       At    the    top    was    an 

appetite — one  that  fed,  not  on 
new  and  exciting  knowledge, 
but  on  a  healthy  GPA.  This 
was  the  "bottom  line"  of 
Bruce.  A  tennis  match,  a 
date,  or  looking  "sharp"  all 
would  fade  into  oblivion  if 
challenged  by  the  need  to 
study  for  a  quiz  or  test. 
Fortunately,  he  rarely  needed 
to  make  such  pagan  sacrifices. 
Bruce's  cumulative  GPA 
stood  at  3.93,^Tie  A  minuses 
accounting    for    the    lack    of 


perfection,  were  doubtlessly 
the  responsibility  of  calcified 
members  of  the  teaching  pro- 

Despite  his  popularity  and 

level,  there  had  been  a  nag- 
ging problem  of  late.  Every 
aspect  of  campus  life  was  a 
delight  to  him — except  one.  If 
he  was  a  "jock"  in  every  other 
way,  wondered  Bruce,  why 
couldn't  he  be  a  spiritual 
"jock"  as  well?  It  seemed  to 
be  the  last  mountain  of  mas- 
tery for  him — the  peak  that 
beckoned  his  conquest. 

One    day,    Bruce    saw    the 
most  controversial  and  popu- 


lar religion  teacher  conversing 
with  a  small  group  of  students 
just  outside  the  Student  Cen- 
ter. Feeling  a  bit  uncomfort- 
able, he  joined  the  group.  At 
the  first  lull  in  the  conver- 
sation, Bruce  departed  from 
his  normal  smooth  style  and 
blurted  out  the  question, 
"What  do  1  have  to  do  to 
become  'cool'  spiritually?" 

The  great  Teacher  paused 
for  a  long  time.  The  other 
students,  aware  of  Bruce's 
charisma,  dared  not  splinter 
the  silence.  Looking  deep  into 
Bruce's  eyes,  the  Teacher 
responded,  "There  are  many 
people  around  you  who  des- 
perately need  help  with  their 
studies.  If  you  want  to  be 
perfect,  go,  sell  your  high 
GPA    and    give    them    some

then  approve  the  change.  Any  I 
student  who  would  like  to  see

look  at  one  in  the  SA  offices. 

"I    plan    to    follow    th<

All-Amerlcan  Sport  Now  in  Full  Swing 


D  Diane  Gainer 

Baseball  is  a  sport  held  deai 
by  any  red-blooded  American, 
and  the  opening  of  Softball 
season  has  been  met  with 
appropriate  enthusiasm.  As 
one  fan  succinctly  put  it,  "The 
season  is  finally  under  way." 

Pitching  machines  are  being 
used  again  this  year,  hurling 
balls  approximately  45  m.p.h. 
in  the  Women's  League  and 
55  m.p.h.  in  the  Men's 
League.  Other  equipment 
includes         new         bases. 


cemented-in  steel  bleachers,  a 
storage  shed,  newly-installed 
home-run  fences  (over  which 
every  player  dreams  of  hitting 
that  Grand  Slam),  and  even 
some  official-looking  signs 
stafing  that  the  baseball  dia- 
monds   are   for   College    use 

But  the  biggest  asset  is  the 
people  involved.  Players  this 
year  are  divided  into  three 
leagues — with  seven  teams  in 
both  the  Men's  East  League 


and  West  League,  and  six 
teams  in  the  Women's 
League.  Games  have  been 
played  with  a  predominant 
spirit  of  eagerness  and  ener- 
getic effort.  A  good  turnout  of 
spectators  has  also  been  on 
hand  to  lend  their  support  and 

If  you  haven't  yet  come  to 
see  (or  better  still,  play  in)  one 
of  the  games — the  season  is 
still  young.  Don't  miss  out  on 
all  the  fun.

Car  Chase  Ends  on  Campus 


DDebraGain 

Shortly  after  9  p.m.  Sunday 
night,  a  five-mile  police  car 
chase  ended  abruptly  on  the 
footbridge  across  from  the 
SMC  tennis  courts. 

The  chase  had  begun  when 
W.  B.  Lampkin,  Hamilton 
County  Police  Officer,. 
observed  a  maroon  1966  Ford 
LTD  turn  onto  Ooltewah- 
Ringgold  Road  at  Standifer 
Gap,  moving  erratically  and, 
Lampkin  judged,  recklessly. 
He  flashed  his  blue  lights,  the 
car  speeded  up,  and  Officer 
Lampkin  chased  it  into  Col- 
legedale  at  speeds  reaching  90 
miles  per  hour. 

"!  wasn't  running  wide 
open,"  said  Lampkin,  "but  it 
wasn't  safe  to  go  any  faster." 

Responding  to  a  radio  alert. 
Jim  Shanko,  Collegedale 
Police  Officer,  placed  his  pa- 
trol   car    sideways    in    Camp 

form  a  road  block.  Just  before 
reaching  Shanko,  the  LTD  lost 
control  coming  around  the 
comer,  hit  a  parked  car,  and 


bounced  onto  the  foot  bridge, 
missing  the  creek  by  about  12 
inches.  The  parked  car,  a 
white  Impala,  belonged  to 
Kent  Campbell,  an  SMC 
student  who  was  playing  ten- 
nis at  the  time. 

A  bystander,  Mike  Bennett 
from  Ooltewah,  who  observed 
the  episode,  stated,  "He  must 
have  been  coming  around  that 
comer  at  70  miles  an  hour.  He 
started  sliding  sideways  and 
we  thought  for  sure  he  was 
going  into  the  creek." 

The  driver,    handcuffed   to 


the  door  of  his  wrecked  car, 
said  that  he'd  lost  control 
because  of  "a  stuck  gas 
pedal,"  and  that  if  he  hadn't 
wrecked,  he  would  have  out- 
run the  police  officer. 

Four  Hamilton  County 
police  cars  and  several  Col- 
legedale officers  were  present 
at  the  scene.  Upon  investiga- 
tion, a  cooler  of  beer,  several 
shot-size  bottles  of  whiskey 
and  an  amount  of  marijuana 
were  found  in  the  defendants'

This  year  Southern  Mis- 
sionary College  has  fifteen 
student  missionaries  serving 
in  other  countries.  The  col- 
lege recently  received  word 
from  three  of  them. 

Rosemary  Bryant,  serving 
at  Hong  Kong  Adventist  Hos- 
pital wrote,  "The  more  1  stay 
here  in  Tsuen,  the  more  I  like 
it. ...This  is  turning  my  whole 
life  around.  For  the  first  time 
in  my  life  I  feel  like  1  really 
belong  somewhere,  like  I'm 
doing  something  useful. 

*  'It  seems  really  strange  not 
being  at  SMC  now.  I  want  to 
know  everything  that  is  going 
on  (without  me)....I  hope  you 
will  write  now  and  then  just  to 
let  me  know  that  someone 
from    there    still    remembers 


love  of  God  and  His  gift  of 
eternal  life.  Please  remember 
me  in  your  prayers  and  also

HP3000  Has 
Better  Brain 

DKen  Neet 

The  Computer  Center  has 
sold  its  HP  2000  computer 
and  has  expanded  its  HP  3000. 
Director  John  Beckett  has 
estimated  the  expansion  will 
pay  off  in  I'/i  years. 

The  computer  now  has  a 
"better  brain,"  explained 
Beckett.  "It  will  do  exactly 
the  same  things,  but  it  will  do 
them  faster." 

The  reason  SMC  has  gone 
to  one  computer  for  the  entire 
campus  is  reduced  cost  for 
energy  and  maintenance. 
Beckett  reports  the  new  sys- 
tem saves  $200  a  month 
through  energy  costs  and  $750 
for

Mail  Room  Causes  Disappointment 


Dear  Editor, 

Having  always  been  more 
impressed  by  quality  than 
quantity,  I  would  like  to  make 
a  comment  about  the  mail 
service  in  Thatcher.  I'm 
delighted  that  the  mail  is  out 
by  12  noon,  and  on  some  days 
part  of  it  is  out  by  10  a.m.  Still 
I  am  alarmed — yesterday 
when  my  roommate  arrived  at 
class  at  10,  she  greeted  me 
with  the  news  that  we  had 
three  letters  in  our  mailbox. 
My  heart  beat  faster,  then 
slowed.  A  bill  for  my  room- 
mate and  two  letters  for 
occupants  of  rooms  other  than 
253. 

Since  the  wrong  letters  in 
the  right  mailbox  (or  is  it, 
right  letters  in  the  wrong 
mailbox)  routine  occurs  at 
least  every  other  day,  I  have 
grown  accustomed  to  the  sit- 
uation—or so  I  thought— until 
yesterday.  Upon  looking  in 
the  mailbox  after  chapel.  I 
discovered  a  letter.  Horrors! 
It  was  one  of  the  same  letters 
that  had  been  handed  over  to 
the  desk  worker  earlier. 

Well,  so  much  for  twice  in 


looking  man  who  was  asking 
the  desk  worker  questions.  I 
returned  to  my  room,  ex- 
hausted and  disgusted. 


It  ' 


■-  for  ; 


structive  suggestions  for  an 
annoying  problem.  Possible 
solutions  1)  If  I  had  the  time  I 
could  track  down  the  letters' 
owners;     2)    since     I    don't. 


perhaps  the  mailroom  workers 
might  take  a  few  minutes  each 
day  to  acquaint  themselves 
with  who  lives  in  what  room, 
and  3)  if  you're  a  deskworker 
and  I  return  a  letter  to  you, 
please  believe  me,  it  was  in 
the  wrong  mailbox. 

Sincerely.

Reaching  into  the  mailbox 
again,  my  hand  emerged 
clutching  that  ill-fated  letter. 
All  that  kept  me  from  getting 
irate    was    the    distinguished 


Snack  Machine 
Sells  Student 
Spoiled  Milk 

Dear  Editor: 

First,  let  me  say  how 
pleased  i  am  about  the  snack 
machines  on  the  first  floor  of 
Talge  Hall.  They  allow  you  to 
have  that  little  extra  meal 
without  waiting  in  long  lines. 
I  see  that  others  feel  the  same 
way  when  I  find  the  machines 
nearly  empty. 

But  there  is  one  problem. 
One  day  I  bought  a  carton  of 
milk  and  found  it  was  spoiled 
and  outdated  by  ELEVEN 
days.  Looking  through  the 
machine's  glass  doors,  I  saw 
that  all  remaining  cartons  of 
milk  were  turned  so  that  you 
couldn't  read  the  expiration 
dates,  after  which  the  milk 
cannot  be  legally  sold. 

I  hope  it  was  accidentally 
done,  though  the  odds  are 
certainly  against  it.  I  hope 
that  whoever  is  in  charge  of 
the  snack  machines  will  place 
the  milk  with  the  dates  out- 
wards from  now  on,  so  we 
don't  waste  our  cash  on 
spoiled  milk.

Nursing  Division    Needs    New  Pin 


D  Melissa  Smith 

The  Division  of  Nursing  is 
sponsoring  a  contest  to  design 
a  new  nursing  pin. 

"The  present  pin,  used 
since  the  beginning  of  the 
nursing  program  at  SMC  is 
esthetic,  but  it  lacks  symbolic 
meaning,"  explained  Nursing 
Director  Ina  Longway. 

The  present  pin  consists  of 
a  laurel  wreath  set  on  a 
triangle  representing  the 
threefold  education  of  the 
heart,  mind  and  hand,  an 
eagle  and  the  nursing  degree 
letters. 

"We  are  interested  in  a 
design  which  will  portray  the 
goals,  objectives  and  philoso- 
phy of  Soufhern  Missionary 
College.  the-Division  of  Nurs- 
ing and  the  Seventh-day  Ad- 
ventist  Church,"  added  Long- 
way.  "We  want  a  pin  that  our 
nursing  graduates  will  be 
proud  to  wear  because  of  its 
real  signficance." 

It  is  not  necessary  to  be  a 


nursing  student  or  an  artist  to 
enter  the  contest  since  a  rough 
sketch  and  a  description  of  the 
symbolism  used  will  suffice. 

Fifty  dollars  and  a  bronzed 
Florence  Nightingale  lamp 
will  be  awarded  to  the  winner. 


Inti 


edpa 


should  submit  their  designs  on 
a  three  by  five  card  to  either 
the  Wright  Hall  switchboard, 
the  Student  Center  desk  or  the 
nursing  office  in  Mazie  Herin 


Hall  by  Sept.  30  at  ; 
Contestants  may  e 
than  one  time,  but  their  n 


address  and  telephone  num- 
ber must  be  on  the  back  of 
each  card. 

The  contest  judges  will  con- 
sist of  three  nursing  instruc- 
tors, t\vo  nursing  students  and 
three  other  instructors  from 
outside  the  nursing  depart- 
All  entries  will  become  the 
property  of  the  Division  of 
Nursing  and  will  be  judged  on 
esthetic  apperance,  symbolic 
meaning,  durability  of  design, 
creativity,  and  the  ability  to 
add  on  a  designation  of  the 
bachelor  of  science  degree 
without  purchasing  a  new  pin. 
In  case  of  duplicate  entries, 
only  the  first  will  be  consi- 
dered and  in  the  occurrence  of 
a  tie,  the  prize  will  be  divided 
in  proportion  to  the  extent  the 
ideas  are  used. 

The  present  nursing  pin  and 
a  catalogue  of  pins  are  on 
reserve  at  the  library  for  any 
contestants  to  view. 


Computer   Services   Director  Answers   Questions    about   ID   Cards 


Students  ask  John  Beckett, 
director  of  Computer  Services, 
about  life  with  the  ID  card. 

0.  Why  must  I  be  only  a 
number  at  SMC?  Can't  you 
deal  with  me  by  name? 

A.  I  wish  we  could.  But 
your  name  doesn't  really  tell 
us  who  you  are.  Each  year  we 
have  one  or  two  cases  of 
identical  names  at  SMC,  and 
the  mix-up  gets  far  worse 
when    former    students    are 

Q.  Why  is  the  cafeteria  so 
mean  when  I  don't  have  my  ID 
card  with  me,  biit  I  remember 


my  number? 

A.They're  tired  of  giving 
free  meals  to  people  who 
remember  their  number  in- 
correctly, or  who,  it  turns  out, 
didn't  have  the  right  to  charge 
meals  in  the  first  place. 

Q.  Yesterday  my  ID  card 
wouldn't  work  at  the  CK. 
Why  did  they  do  this  to  me? 

A.  To  find  out  why  the 
machine  rejected  your  card, 
bring  it  to  us  at  the  Computer 
Center.  If  there's  a  mechani- 
cal problem,  we'll  correct  it

Inelda   Hefferlin   Describes  Life   in  Russia 


DTerri  Prins 

Inelda  Hefferlin's  trip  to 
Russia  began  many  years  ago 
as  an  ardent  interest  in  the 
Soviet  Union.  This  interest 
flourished  through  many 
readings  of  the  Russians, 
Dr.  Zhivago.  War  and  Peace, 
and  An  American  Family  in 
Moscow.  Friends  who  had 
visited  Russia  fanned  the 
I  flame  a  little  more.     And  a 

i  Leningrad  in  1976  sealed  the 
1  desire  to  go  back  and  stay 
I  awhile. 

So  when  her  husband,  Dr. 
iRay  Hefferlin,  scientist  and 
■  professor  of  physics  at  SMC, 
I  received    an    invication    from 


supermarkets.  Stores  tend  ti 
specialize,  so  you  have  to  go  ti 
different  stores  for  differen 
items.  At  first,  shopping  wa 
an  all-day  affair,  but  I  sooi

the  Soviet  Academy  of  Scien- 
tists to  visit  Russia  as  part  of 
the  Treaty  Exchange  Pro- 
gram, Inelda  eagerly  packed 
her  bags.  Ray,  inelda,  and 
I  their  two  younger  daughters 
[  lived  in  Leningrad  for  six 
I  months  while  Dr.  Hefferlin 
I  did  research  at  the  Leningrad 
I  State  University. 

Now     the     Hefferlins     are 

I  back.    And  last  week  I  spent 

afternoon   in   their  living 

am,    completely    fascinated 

Inelda    told    of    life     in 

Leningrad. 


Herf 


of 


eigners   only.      I    could    find 
almost  anything  there. 

"Food  in  Russia  is  quite 
reasonable;  most  cost  about 
one-half  of  US  prices.  A  big 
freshly-baked  loaf  of  bread  is 
25  cents;  carrots  are  16  cents 
for2'/i  pounds;  vegetables  are 
always  cheaper,  and  milk  is 
about  the  same  price  as  here. 

"Russia  is  a  far  less  throw- 
away  society  than  the  United 
States.  Bagging  of  groceries 
is  unheard  of;  everyone  car- 
ries his  own  shopping  bags. 
Mayonnaise  and  similar  items 
are  sold  in  returnable  blue 
glass  jars  resembling  old  blue 
canning  jars.  I  brought  some 
of  these  jars  back  to  keep  with 
my  canning  jar  collection. 
People  accumulate  jars  very 
quickly  in  Russia  and  it  is  a 
real  chore  to  return  them. 
Sometimes  people  stand  in 
line  for  hours  waiting  to  cash 

"I  bought  all  my  milk  from 
a  milk  store  where  fresh  milk 
was  kept  in  huge  containers 
and  then  transferred  to  your 
own  steel  milk  buckets.  I 
would  then  take  the  milk  home 
and  pasteurize  it.  This  milk 
wasn't  homogenized  and  my 
kids  used  to  skim  off  the  thick, 
rich  cream  in  the  mornings. 
They  loved  it!  People  on  the 
street  always  thought  I  was 
Russian  when  I  carried  my 
milk  buckets.  It  would  get 
asked  directions  frequently. 
Not  many  Americans  walk  the 


buckets," 

HOUSING 

"We  lived,  like  the  Russian 
people,  in  a  huge  apartment 
complex  on  the  outskirts  of 
Leningrad.  In  the  cities, 
almost  no  one  owns  his  own 
home.  People  in  Russia  think 
of  their  apartments,  or  flats, 
as  we  think  of  our  houses — 
they     are     their     permam 


e  flat  for

TRANSPORTATION 

"In  Russia  there  are  vir- 
tually no  traffic  jams.  Cars  are 
scarce  and  most  people  use 
public  transportation:  trams, 
trolleys,  buses. and  subways. 
At  first  I  was  terrified  to  find 
my  way  around  in  a  strange 
city  of  4'/3  million." 

WOMEN'S  LIB

women    are    more    liberated

men  like  many  American 
women.  They  seem  to  appre-

of  Russia's  terrible  loss  of  men

II,  the  female  to  male  ration 
was  8  to  1.  As  one  friend  of

MEDIA 

"It  is  true  that  Russia  controls 
its  own  television  stations,  but 
they  aren't  jamming  out  other 
programs  that  come  in.  The 
'Voice  of  America'  can  be 
heard  on  many  Russian  radio 
stations.

translated  into  Russian.  I

American  books,  they  realize

RELIGION 

"Religious  freedom  is  al- 
lowed in  Russia  with  certain 
boundary  conditions:  churches 
must  be  registered  with  the 
Government  Ministry  of  Pro- 
testant Affairs:  churches  can- 
not publish  clandestinely,  in 
fact,  they  really  can't  publish 
at  all;  members  must  meet  in 
assigned  buildings  and  can't 
build  their  own  churches: 
government  determines  the 
frequency  of  meetings  and 
specifies  that  ministers  must 
preach  straight  Bible  doctrine 

"In  spite  of  all  the  regula- 
tions, the  church  is  growing. 
Russian  Christians  can  have  a 
satisfying  religious  life.  Since 
churches  can't  openly 
evangelize,  religion  has  to  be 
a  living  reality  in  each  per- 
son's life.  People  come  to  the 
church  through  seeing  the 
lives  of  others.  Baptism  is  not 
allowed  before  a  person  is  18 
years  old. 

"When  Elder  Pierson 
visited  Russia,  he  achieved  a 
milestone    for     the     Russian 


Review. 

"Religion  is  precious  to  the 
Christians  in  Russia;  they 
have  to  sacrifice  for  it. 
Religious  people  in  high  posi- 
tions keep  quiet  about  their 
beliefs  and  will  only  confide 
them  in  vague  terms  after  they 

DRESS 

"In  the  winter  the  women 
dress  the  nicest.  Many  of 
them  wear  lovely  furs.  The 
older  women  prefer  mink,  but 
the  younger  ones  love  the 
long-haired  furs — silver,  red 
and  snow  fox.  I'll  always 
remember  riding  in  airy  esca- 
lators watching  the  wind 
blowing  a  sea  of  furs. 

"The  women  don't  look  as 
classy  in  the  summer.  Most 
dresses  are  homemade-  Peo- 
ple have  to  copy  pictures  out 
'  of  magazines  because  patterns 
are  non-existent.  Sometimes, 
all  they  have  to  look  at  is  the 
front  of  dresses  in  pictures,  so 
often  the  back  part  of  their 
clothes  is  totally  unrelated  to 
the  style  of  the  front. 

"Men's  dress  as  a  whole  is 
uninteresting.  Most  dress  in 
dark,  plain  clothes.  This  is 
because  dry  cleaning  in  Russia 
is  terrible.  If  men  wore  light 
suits,  they  could  never  be 
cleaned  properly."

SMC  Gives  Meaning  to  the  Word  ''Blue" 


You  probably  didn't  know 
this,  but  SMC  is  famous  for 
inventing  a  new  word.  Well, 
not  really  a  new  word,V  but  a 
new  definition  for  an  old  wprd. 
The  word  is  "blue"  like  in  the 
color,  SMC  gave  it  the 
meaning  of  being  down  and 
depressed.  The  way  it  hap- 
pened went  something  like 
this. 

Last  year  a  student  came  to 
SMC  who  didn't  have  any- 
thing to  wear  except  blue 
jeans.  He  attended  classes  in 
his  blue  jeans  even  though  he 
knew  what  the  College  Cat- 
alog said  about  them.  "The 
wearing  of  blue  denim  mate- 
rial covering  the  area  between 
the  upper  hip  and  the  middle 
ankle    and    Jn    the    case    of 


Steven  dickerhoff 


the    tests,    and    his    grades 
plummeted  to  Fs. 

Since  he  couldn't  go  to  his 
classes,  he  spent  all  his  time 
walking  around  the  campus  in 
a  sorry  state  of  mind,  worrying 
about  his  grades.  Other 
students  would  see  him  and

prohibited.  Students  breaking 
this  rule  are  subject  to  dis- 
missal." 

At  first  the  teachers  would 
look  the  other  way,  but  he 
continuedto  wear  them.  Then 
they  would  make  general  an- 
nouncements to  the  class  that 
bluejeans  should  not  be  worn. 
But  he  kept  wearing  them 
until  the  teachers  finally  re- 


fused to  let  him  into  class.  "1 
guess  I  can  see  why  the  faculty 
don't  want  students  to  wear 
blue  jeans  to  their  classes  in 
Lynn  Wood  Hall.  It  makes  the 
place  look  shabby,"  he 
thought. 

Before  he  was  kicked  out  of 
his  classes  he  was  making  A's 
and  Bs,  but  now  since  he 
couldn't  go  to  class  he  missed 
the  lectures,  the  quizzes,  and

Another  person  who  came 
to  school  here  about  the  same 
time  liked  to  wear  her  blue 
jeans  to  the  cafeteria.  Of 
course  there  was  no  way  she 
could  eat  there  dressed  as  she 
was,  so  every  once  in  awhile 
she  would  act  as  if  she  was 
getting  a  take-out,  but  instead 
go  in  and  eat  with  her  friends. 


She  got  away  with  this  for 
awhile,  but  finally  the  recep- 
tionist caught  on. 

Now  that  she  couldn't  eat, 
she  started  suffering  from 
malnutrition.  She  became 
pale  and  weak.  People  would 
see  her  stumbling  around 
campus  and  would  refer  to  her 
as  being  "blue"  because  of 

Fifty  years  from  now  when 
your  grandchildren  ask  you 
where  you  went  to  college,  you 
can  tell  them  SMC.  And  when 
they  ask  you  what  it  is  famous 
for,  you  can  tell  them  very 
proudly,  that  SMC  is  famous 
for  giving  meaning  to  the  word

$2500  in  Valuables  Robbed  from  Campus  Shop 


Early  last  Sabbath  morning,  shattered   and  reported  it  1 

a    robbery    occurred    at    the  the  police. 

Campus  Shop   and   Southern  ,    Upon  investigation,  it  was 

Mercantile  in  the  Collegedale  discovered  that   merchandise 

Plaza.  Sometime  before  noon,  worth   more  than  S2500  had 

passers-by  noticed  that  one  of  been  stolen.      This   included 

the    front    glass    doors    was  mostly   watches,    along    with 


calculators  and  Citizens 
Band  radios. 

Collegedale  police  were 
able  to  obtain  fingerprints  of 

the  culprits,  and  alerts  have 
been  distributed  describing 
the  stolen  merchandise,  but  at 
this  time  no  suspects  have 
been  named. 

Randy  White,  Campus  Shop 
and  Mercantile  manager,  said 
that  the  store  does  have  an 


internal  alarm  system  that  was 
working  properly,  but  that  no 
one  was  close  enough  to  hear 
it.  Collegedale  security  police 
also  make  routine  checks  of 
the  store  windows  and  en- 
trances, but  apparently  the 
thieves  timed  their  entry  for 
when    the    police    weren't 

As  of  this  week,  says  White, 
the  Campus  Shop  has  no  plans 


lor  installing  a  more  elaborate 
security  system.  He  does  note 
though,  that  one  probably 
could  have  been  purchased  for 


the 


S2500  in  stolen  merchandise 
and  the  $200  glass  door. 
"After  something  happens," 
says  White,  "it's  easy  to  say 
'we  should  have,"  but  we  don't 
know  that   this    will    happen 


No  Classes  Held   Ingathering   Day 


No  classes  will  be  held  on 
Wednesday,   Oct.  3,   so  that 

the  students  can  have  a 
chance  to  catch  up  on  their 
school  work  and  also  go  In-i 
gathering. 

Chaplain  Jim  Herman  has 
changed  the  day's  program  in 
an  effort  to  encourage  more 
students  to  participate-  "We 
want  the  students  to  willfully 
and  cheerfully  go  Ingather- 
ing." he  stated. 

This  year  the  cafeteria,  CK 
and  the  library  will  be  open 
during  the  regular  hours, 
Herman  wants  to  get  away 
from  the  idea  of  closing  every- 
thing on  campus  in  an  effort  to 
almost  force  the  students  to 


Ingathering. 

"This  year  we  want  every- 
one to  wani  to  join  in  and  not 
feel  that  they  are  being  forced 
to  go  Ingathering."  Herman 
explained.  "Participation  is 
going  to  be  our  goal,  not 
money." 

The  Ingathering  in  the 
Chattanooga  area  will  be  done 
in  the  evening,  so  everyone 
will  have  a  chance  to  do  their 
studying. 

A  small  group  will  be  leav- 
ing around  12:30  that  after- 
noon for  those  interested  in 
■Ingathering  in  the  Atlanta 
area.  Cars  will  leave  at  4:30 
p.m.  to  Chattanooga  and  the 
surrounding  cities.  Everyone 
should    be    back    on    campus 


between  9  and  10  that  night. 

If  some  cannot  participate  in 
the  Ingathering  because  of 
work  schedules.  Elder  Her- 
man encourages  them  to  give 
that  day's  earnings.

by  a  stereo  receiver,  will 
sound  basically  the  same  to

Opinions 


editorial 

With  the  new  school  year  have  come  some  changes  in  the 
worship  scheduling.  This  may  be  a  convenience  for  some,  but 
for  others  it.creates  problems. 

Last  year  the  SA  sponsored  a  7:30  a.m.  worship  and  the 
dormitories  .held  them  at  7  and  10  p.m.  (10:10  for  women). 

The  main  problem  with  that  schedule  was  that  the  evening 
speaker  had  to  come  to  two  verv  different  times.  This  year,  to 
accommodate  the  speaker,  dorm  worship  was  changed  to  meet 
at  9:30  and  10  p.m.,  and  the  SA  'worships  were  discontinued 

While  this  new  schedule  may  be  great  for  the  speakers,  it  is 
no  so  great  for  the  students.  More  than  likely  if  one  can't  make 
it  to  the  9:30  worship,  he  won't  be  able  to  attend  the  10  o'clock 
one  either.  Without  the  morning  or  7  p.m.  worship  options,  one 
who  knows  he  cannot  make  the  late  evening  worships  is  just  out 

The  deans  in  Thatcher  Hail,  however,  have  tried  to  alleviate 
the  problem  by  holding  a  7:30  a.m.  worship.  This  gives  the 
women  a  chance  to  attend  worships  when  they  know  they  won't 
be  able  to  attend  evening  worship  because  of  other  plans. 

If  the  mens'  deans  were  to  offer  a  morning  worship  option, 
they  would  see  a  decrease  in  worship  skips — which  would  mean 
less  work  for  them.  They  would  also  hear  less  complaining. 
After  all,  who  are  the  worships  for,  anyway? 


Should  Faculty  Attend  Chapel    Programs? 


Dear  Editor: 

During  last  week's  meet- 
ings with  Elder  Zamora  I 
discovered  some  strangers 
sitting  among  the  students. 
Strangers  they  seemed  to  me 
not  because  1  was  not  familiar 
with  their  faces,  but  rather 
because  I  have  never  seen 
them  at  regular  Chapel  meet- 
ings. I  am  talking  about  the 
faculty. 

Maybe  the  sophomores, 
juniors  and  seniors  have  al- 
ready gotten  used  to  "Chapel 
for  students  only,"  but  to  me 
as  a  freshman  it  is  still  a  rather 
unusual  sight.  And  I  would 
not  mind  at  all  to  try  to 
overlook  the  absence  of  the 
faculty   if  I   could    find    any 


instead  of  attending  Chapel 
and  twenty  to  take  the  place  of 
my  personal  Bible  study  and 
prayer,  but  I  don't  know  of  one 
thing  that  is  more  important 
than  fellowship  with  God  and 


However,  last  week  (when 
two  meetings  a  day  instead  of 
two  a  week  were  held)  a  rather 
large  number  of  faculty  were 


If  so,  why  do  we  have  1 
attend  Chapel  program 
throughout  the  year  that  ai 
not  worth  attending  in  oi 
faculty's  eyes? 

If  not,  next  Chapel? 

Sincerely, 


Worker     Defends      CK 


Roads      Declared    Disaster 

Dear  Editor; 

1  have  a  complaint  to  make 
about  the  condition  of  roads  on 
campus.  They  are  in  such  a 
terrible  state  that  it  is  danger- 


3  drive  on  them. 


For 


Indu 


Drive  was  recently  torn  up  for 
repairs.  That's  fine,  but 
shouldn't  the  surface  have 
been  replaced?  In  spots  it  is 
almost  less  than  one-lane 
wide.  In  other  places  there 
are  trenches  across  the  road 
which  are  impossible  to  avoid. 
Also,  the  new  ramp  behind 
Lynn  Wood  Hall  was  a  good 


idea,  but  try  driving  down  it. 
There's  a  drop-off  at  the  top 
that  will  tear  the  muffler  off 
anything  lower  than  a  Jeep. 
The  ramp  itself  is  covered  with 
mud  and  loose  rocks,  and  in 
rainy  weather  it  becomes  a 
sort  of  ski  slope  for  cars. 

Those  of  us  who  are  village 
students  have  to  contend  with 
this  mess  daily.  Somebody 
have  mercy  on  us  and  our  cars 
and  fix  this  mess.

1  for  i1 

Since  I  do  not  see  Chapel  as 
a  punishment,  I  don't  think 
attendance  needs  to  be  re- 
quired. 

But  when  I  look  at  the  small 
number  of  faculty  who  attend 
Chapel,  at  least  occasionally, 
and  when  I  imagine  how  many 
students  would  follow  their 
example  if  they  were  free  to  do 
so,  then  I  understand  why  we 
have  to  go. 

I  would  like  to  see  the 
faculty  in  Chapel  not  to  make 
them  "suffer"  with  us,  but 
because  only  with  them  it  is 
possible  to  be  together  as  a 
college  "family." 

I  know  college  professors 
are  busy,  extremely  busy — 
students  are,  too.  Without 
effort  I  could  name  at  least  ten 
important  things  for  me  to  do 

Student 
Thanks    Elder 
Zamora 

■  Dear  Editor: 

I  want  to  say  thank  you  and 
express  my  sincere  apprecia- 
tion for  the  people  involved  in 
bringing  Elder  Zamora  to  our 
campus.  This  is  my  third  year 
at  SMC,  and  I  have  never 
heard  anyone  who  got  through 
to  me  better  than  Elder  Za- 


Dear  Editor: 

1  am  a  worker  at  the 
well-known  Campus  Kitchen 
(CK),  and  frankly  I  am  tired  of 
hearing  such  ludicrous  re- 
marks about  the  CK.  For 
example.  I've  heard  it  referred 
toas,  "the grease-pit,"  "cam- 
pus crud,"  and  obviously  in 
bad  taste,  "totally  gross." 

Many  people  on  campus 
often  are  too  lazy  to  go  to 
breakfast  in  the  cafeteria,  so 
during  their  morning  break 
from  classes,  they  rush  over  to 
the  CK  to  satisfyingly  "feed 
theirfaces."  For  us  who  work 
there  it  is  frustrating  to  pre- 
pare the  food,  and  when  our 

the  call  for  their  number,  they 
complain  to  no  end  that  their 
milkshake  is  melted  or  that 
their  masterburger  is  cold. 
Often  those  poor,  unfortunate 
workers  who  get  stuck  calling 
numbers  are  harassed  and 
embarrassed  by  the  distaste- 
ful   remarks    made    by    their 

1  know  that  working  at  the 
CK  is  HARD  WORK,  and 
when  I  get  to  my  room,  I  am 
quite  frankly  too  tired  to  do  ' 
anything!!!! 

I  remember  once  calling  the 
number  33  twelve  times  inside 


and  ten  times  outside  the  CK, 
only  to  find  out  that  the  person 
who  had  that  number  was 
talking  so  much  that  he  didn't 
hear  his  number  being  called. 

Then  he  stormed  up  to  the 
cashier  and  demanded  his 
food  immediately,  only  to  find 
out  that  is  was  cold. 

Often  we  get  people  who 
order  their  food  and  go  sit 
down  to  socialize  while  they 
wait.  Then  when  their  food 
arrives  they  decide  they  don't 

or  they've  decided  to  eat  it 
somewhere  else  and  want  us 
to  make  the  order  "to  go." 
For  these  people  who  seem  to 
be  so  indecisive,  I  suggest 
they  make  plain  to  the  person 
taking  their  order  to  specify 
exactly  what  they  want! 

Many  times  we  run  out  of 
certain  items,  but  always,  we 
try  to  substitute  or  reorder  the 

the  customer  will  be  satisfied 
and  therefore  happy. 

We  who  work  at  the  CK 
wish  you  would  cooperate  with 
us  to  make  your  "pig-out 
time"  more  enjoyable  and 
satisfying! 
Sincerely, 
Moe  Prado

s\r22\  beat 


parH  Qzr\\ry 


Robbi  Pier  son, 

the  best  one  we've  had  since  I 

good  rapport  with  the  students, 


nursing.  Collegedale.  Tenn.:    I  thought  it  was      Carrie  St.  Clair,  sophomore,  physical  therapy.  Columbus.  Ind.:    1  could  tell  the 
ve  been  here  because  Elder  Zamora  had  such      Holy  Spirit  was  here  because  so  many  kids  paid  attention.    The  < 

service  was  especially  nice  because  so  many  of  my  friends  participated  this  t 


Bob  Gustavson.  senior,  accounting/religion,  Jonkoping,  Sweden:  I  think  the 
meetings  were  excellent.  I  liked  his  positive  attitude — he  brought  out  the  fact 
that  people  are  better  than  generally  thought  to  be. 

Ronda  McMillan,  sophomore,  french  horn.  Orlando.  Fla.:  He  presented  his 
message  in  a  practical  way  so  that  you  can  apply  it  to  your  life  and  see  what  God 
has  in  mind  for  you. 

Jeff  Garibaldi,  freshman,  chemistry.  Cullman,  Ala.:  It's  the  best  Week  of 
Prayer  I've  attended  in  my  life.  I  learned  that  you  don't  have  to  wait  till  you  get 
to  heaven  to  experience  an  abundant  Christian  life. 

James  Glass,  sophomore,  accounting.  Keene.  Tex.:  I'm  glad  he  was  humorous 
and  not  boring.  I'm  taking  the  class  Righteousness  by  Faith,  and  his  talks 
brought  out  new  light  in  this  area  to  me.  I  wouldn't  mind  seeing  him  return  in 
the  future. 


Bryan  Aalborg.  sohpomore.  theology.  Reading.  Pa.:  He  presented  Christianity 
as  it  should  be— a  life  based  on  common  sense  of  where  we've  come  from,  what 
we're  doing  now.  and  where  we're  going.  He  made  Christianity  attractive  no 
matter  what  background  a  person  has  come  from. 

Lori  Kaester,  sophomore,  special  education.  Altamonte  Springs.  Fla.:  He 
didn't  try  to  play  with  my  emotions.  He  gave  examples  of  how  to  use 
Christianity  in  a  practical  way  in  my  life.    He  appealed  to  my  logic. 

David  Gadd.  associate  senior,  nursing.  Knoxville.  Tenn.:  Elder  Zamora  is  much 
better  than  the  average  speaker  we  usually  have  here.  I  regret  bemg  unable  to 
attend  the  morning  meetings  due  to  nursing  labs. 

Garth  Metcalf.  sophomore,  nursing.  Orlando.  Fla.:  It  was  very  interesting.  He 
brought  out  a  lot  of  new  ideas  that  a  lot  of  preachers  don't  bring  out,  in  particular 
the  foot-washing  service.    It  was  a  tremendous  help.    1  hope  it  stays  with  me.

WSMC  Presents  New  Shows 


D  Valerie  Dick  , 

WSMC  will  present  several 
new  programs  during  the 
month  of  October. 

A  live  call-in  program  with 
H.M.S.  Richards.  Sr.  is  one  of 
the  upcoming  specials. 
Richards,  .who  has  been  the 
speaker  for  the  Voice  of  Pro- 
phecy for  50  years,  will  answer 
questions  about  the  Bible. 
People  from  many  cities  in  the 
United  States  will  be  asking 
the  questions  on  this  program. 
It  will  be  aired  on  Saturday, 
Oct.  6  at  4:30  p.m. 


"Ask  the  President,"  an 
exclusive  national  call-in  pro- 
gram with  President  Jimmy 
Carter  is  a  two  hour  special 
from  National  Public  Radio 
(NPR)  which  is  scheduled  for 
Oct.  13  at  8  p.m. 

"This  is  only  the  second 
time  the  President  of  the 
United  States  has  agreed  to 
talk  informally  with  people  all 
-over  the  country  on  national 
radio.  .  .  ,"  announced  NPR 
President  Frank  Mankiewiez. 
WSMC      invites      persons 


wishing  to  talk  to  the  Pre- 
sident on  this  program  to  send 
a  postcard  listing  name,  ad- 
dress and  telephone  number 
to:  "Ask  the  President,"  c/o 
National  Public  Radio.  P.O. 
Box  19369,  Washington,  D.C., 
20036. 

NPR  will  select  phone 
callers  from  different  cities 
who  will  then  be  able  to  talk 
directly  to  President  Carter 
when  the  line  becomes  avail- 
able. 

One  of  the  new  programs  to 
be  presented  will  be  a  radio 
broadcast  of  the  Seventh-day 
Adventist  television  program, 
"It  is  Written,"  with  host, 
George  Vandeman.  This  pro- 
gram will  be  a  regular  broad- 
cast, and  it  will  be  aired 
Saturday  mornings  at  10:30, 

From  NPR  comes  "Concert 
Guitar."  This  new  series, 
beginning  Oct.  7,  will  be  aired 
each  Sunday  at  8  p.m. 
Featured  on  each  program  will 
be  full  concert  performances 
by  young  guitarists  or  estab- 
lished artists. 


SMC  Libraries  Reclassify  Collection 


Traflfic  Laws  Enforced 


n  Patricia  Stone 

Traffic  laws  in  the  College- 
dale  area  this  year  are  being

parking,  failing  to  stop  at  stop 
signs,     and     exceeding     the 


Child   Care 
Center  JSeeds 
Volunteers 

D  Cathy  Cuilum 

Marilyn  SHger,  director  at 
the  Collegedale  Child  Care 
Center,  needs  the  help  of  SMC 

Sliger  "would  be  thrilled  to 
have  the  students  come  by  the 
center  and  donate  some  time, 
to  tell  a  story  or  teach  a  new 
song." 

The  children  have  a  secular 
time  each  day  at  11:30  a.m.  for 
15  minutes.  This  would  be  the 
best  time  for  students  to 
participate. 

The  stories  need  not  come 
from  a  book,  a  personal  ex- 
perience about  a  pet  or  hap- 
pening would  be  fine.  Or 
someone  who  plays  an  instru- 
ment and  would  like  to  sing 
with  the  children  would  also 
be  welcome. 

Volunteering  some  time 
would  be  useful  for  those  who 
are  interested  in  working  at 
the  Child  Care  Center  in  the 


all 


important.  If  you  are  stopped 
and  do  not  have  your  license 
with  you,  you  will  be  expected 
to  appear  in  court.  Excluding 
your  fine,  court  cost  is  $14.50. 

Failing  to  appear  in  court 
can  result  in  a  warrant  being 
sworn  out  for  your  arrest.  The 
fee  for  ignoring  the  ticket 
greatly  exceeds  the  court  cost. 

If  you  already  have  unpaid 
fines  in  the  Collegedale- 
Chattanooga  area,  it  would  be 
advisable  to  pay  your  fine 
promptly  even  if  you  are  not 
required  to  appear  in  court. 
The  Hamilton  County  Police 
Force  is  enforcing  payment  of 

If  you  do  not  have  the 
money  to  pay  your  fine,  ar- 
rangements can  be  made  to 
pay  it  on  an  installment  plan 
basis.  The  alternative  for  not 
paying  the  fine  is  jail. 


At  a  time  when  most  aca- 
demic departments  were 
winding  down  for  the  summer, 
McKee  Library  and  the  Or- 
lando Extension  Library  began 
a  monumental  task.  They 
planned  to  reclass  the  entire 
Orlando  collection,  absorbing 
materials  from  the  defunct 
Madison  campus,  in  three 
short  months.  To  accomplish 
this  improvement  in  library 
services  for  nursing  students, 
library  staff  on  both  campuses 
concentrated  long  hours  to 
meet  the  deadline  of  the  fall 


"Besides  confusing  stu- 
dents already  acquainted  with 
the  Library  of  Congress  sys- 
tem on  the  main  campus,  the 
Dewey  system  used  in  Or- 
lando was  too  inflexible  to 
accomodate  the  needs  of  the 
rapidly  expanding  medical 
field."  explained  Peg  Ben- 
nett, director  of  the  project. 

The  biggest  hurdle  was  the 
distance  between  location  of 
the  collection  and  the 
puter  terminal.  "I  doubt 
whether  any  library  has 
attempted  to  classify  a  col- 
lection 600  miles  away — and 
in  such  a  short  time,"  stated 
Bennett.  Specialists 
mated  cataloging, 
and  Betty  Collins 
from  SMC  to  Orlando  to 
each  piece  of  printed 


and  audio-visual  material. 

Bennett  spent  four  weeks 
and  Collins  one  in  Oriando 
sending  back  information  to 
McKee  Library  where  Collins 
and  Loranne  Grace  were  re- 
sponsible for  feeding  it  into 
the  computer  terminal. 

It  was  this  terminal,  linking 
SMC  with  over  2000  libraries 
from  coast  to  coast  through 
the  Southeastern  Library  Net- 
work (SOLINET)  and  the  Ohio 
College  Library  Center 
(OCLC),  that  made  the  project 
feasible.  "Without  auto- 
mation," said  Bennett,  "the 
task  would  have  consumed 
two  yearsl"  The  work  flow 
was  arranged  so  that  the 
computer  terminal  was  in  use 
from  6:30  a.m.  continuously 
until  9:30  p.m. 

Charles  Davis,  Director  of 
Libraries,    says    that    he    is 


proud  of  the  library  staff  for 
attempting  and  completing,  in 
record  time,  this  necessary 
project.  Peg  Bennett  acted  as 
coordinator  and  was  ably 
assisted  by  Betty  Collins, 
Loranne  Grace,  Marion  Lin- 
derman.  Marianne  Wooley. 
Jean  Benedict,  Mara  Lea  Cos- 
ton,  and  a  number  of  student 


Davis  feels  that  McKee 
Library  is  far  more  fortunate 
than  most  with  its  staff.  As  a 
group,  they  accomplished  this 
summer  nearly  quadruple 
what  one  might  expect  from 
the  usual  staff.  They  adjusted 
readily  to  long  hours  and 
numerous  procedural  changes 
and  participated  actively  and 
creatively  in  the  endless  de- 
cisions that  had  to  be  made  as 
they  extended  and  improved

One  experience  especially 
reminded  Mickey  that  India  is 
a  land  in  desperate  need  of  the 
gospel.  "We  have  had  some 
real  trouble  here  this  week. 
On  Tuesday  night  the  servant 
giri  saw  a  tall  man,  half  naked, 
with  big  eyes  out  the  window. 
She  is  a  Hindu  and  was 
hysterical  for  some  time.  That 
night  in  their  Hostel,  one  or 
two  boys  could  hear  footsteps 
and  one  actually  saw  a  figure. 
Thenthenext  night,  stones 
began  to  be  pelted  on  some  of 
the  boys  from  out  of  a  vacant 
room,  and  from  the  roof,  one 
boy  saw  figures  which  were 
approaching.  On  Friday  one 
fellow  was  washing  clothes 
and  was  bonged  on  the  head 
by  five  rocks.  Later,  at  lunch 
in  the  cafeteria  something 
began  shaking  his  chair  and 
he  was  unable  to  lift  food  to 
his  mouth.  He  hasn't  sur- 
rendered himself  to  Christ  yet, 
perhaps  that's  why  the  devil 
has  a  foothold  there.  Friday 
we  had  some  earnest  prayer 
bands.  I  was  leading  the  band 
in  which  this  fellow  was.  He' 
began  to  shake  but  managed  a 
prayer  anyway.  There  was  no 
further  trouble  last  night  so 
maybe  that  problem  has 
ceased  to  exist.  Pray  for  us 
and  my  work."

Columnist    Advises  Tired,  Wayward,  and   2.32 


Since  this  column  has  been 
appearing  in  the  Accent  the 
last  three  weeks.  I've  been 
getting  letters  from  students 
who,  having  noticed  the 
wisdom  coming  through  my 
column  are  asking  for  advice. 
A  few  of  the  many  that  have 
been  sent  to  me  are  featured 
below  along  with  my  advice .

Alice  Gilkins 
Receives  Her 
Doctorate 

D  Cathy  Cullum 

Alice  Calkins,  associate 
professor  of  home  economics, 
passed  the  requirements  for 
her  doctorate,  Friday,  Sept. 
21. 


Due  to  added  demands  for 
health  care  created  by  the 
increased  enrollment,  Health 
Service  will  be  open  for  3 
hours  on  Sunday,  The  times 
are:  9-10  a.m..  2-3  p.m.  and 
7-8  p.m.

tafter  the  office  is  closed)  are 
busier  than  it  was  intended 
that  they  should  be.  The  main 
problem  seems  to  be  at  nights 
and  on  Sundays  when  they  get 
calls  and  visits  at  all  hours. 
This  does  not  leave  enough 
time  for  studying. 

"Perhaps  from  Friday 
afternoon  to  Monday  morning 
was  too  long  to  go  without 
having  the  office  open.  By 
being  open  these  three  times 
on  Sunday  and  with  a  little 
cooperation  on  your  part  we 
are  hoping  to  condense  your 
visits  to  these  times.  That  way 
you  can  still  have  adequate 
health  care  and  the  call  nurses 
can  have  blocks  of 


the  things  they  need  to  do," 
explained  Eleanor  Hanson, 
director  of  Health  Service. 

The  purpose  of  the  call  time 
is  to  care  for  the  in-patients 
and  emergencies.  Health 
Service  will  continue  to  be 
available  for  the  emergencies 
as  it  has  been  in  the  past. 
"An  emergency  is  a  pressing 
situation  which  suddenly 
comes  up  without  warning  so 
you  could  not  prepare  for  it.  If 
you  are  vomiting  on  Saturday 
afternoon  and  felt  perfectly 
fine  on  Friday  at  3:00  p.m. 
then  it  could  be  considered  an 
emergency." 


the 


Deans  are  authorized  to  act; 
otherwise,  the  Health  Service 
nurses  make  their  where 
abouts  known  to  the  college 
switchboard  and  leave  a  note 
on  the  door  of  Health  Service. 
The  Health  Service  is  open 


all  evening  even  though  the 
door  is  locked.  It  is  locked  for 
the  nurses  protection. 

It  is  important  that  all 
health  needs  are  taken  care  of 
by  10  p.m.  when  Health 
Service  closes  rather  than  at 
12:30  a.m.  because  the  nurses 
do  have  classes.  They  also 
must  check  on  the  in-patients, 
give  them  breakfast  and  be 
dressed  and  ready  for  lab  by 
7:30  a.m.,  so  they  must  be  in 
bed  by  10  p.m. 

Another  time  to  consider 
your  health  is  Friday  after- 
noon. Please  avoid  making 
unnecessary  calls  during  the 
weekend;  however,  if  you  are 
sick,  don't  ignore  your  health 
till    you   can't    stand    it    any 


longer.  It's  a  discomfort  you 
don't  need.  If  you  deal  with  it 
early  you'll  be  happier  and  so 
will  the  call  nurses.

Thursday,  September  27,  1979  THE  SOUTHERN  ACCENT  - 


Speaker  Interrupts   Church  to  Heal   Woman 


[Luke  13:10-17  revisited] 

The  church  service  began 
with  an  unusual  sense  of 
reverential  awe.  As  the  organ 
intoned  the  rich  notes  of  "The 
Lord  is  in  His  Holy  Temple," 
the  ministers  entered.  Stand- 
ing in  the  pulpit,  the  visiting 
speaker  began  the  invocation. 
His  voice,  surpassing  the 
richness  of  the  organ's  low 
tones,  seemed  to  engulf  the 
audience  and  bring  the  group 
into  the  presence  of  God.  The 
head  elder  stepped  to  the 
pulpit  and  announced  the 
opening  hymn.  The  regal 
melody  of  "0  Worship  the 
King"  raised  the  sense  of 
reverential  awe  to  an  even 
higher  pitch. 

"Eventually,  it  was  time  for 
the  guest  to  preach.  The  head 
elder  again  stepped  to  the 
pulpit  and  with  pride  in  his 
voice,  introduced  the  visitor. 
As  the  preacher  began,  the 
head  elder  mused  to  himself, 
■"niiswill  be  the  high  point  of 
worship  all  year — the  people 
will  be  talking  about  this 
service  for  weeks.  How 
fortunate  it  is  that  so  many 
people    turned    out    to    hear 

The  speaker,  dressed  in  an 
attractive,  two-piece,  gray 
suit,  had  no  problem  in  re- 
taining the  interest  of  the 
people.  As  he  began  his  first 
illustration,  they  were  clinging 
to  every  syllable.  Suddenly  he 
stopped.  The  head  elder 
couldn't  believe  his  ears. 
What  he  though  was  a  long, 
effective  pause  was  turning 
into  a  period  of  embarrassing 
silence.  And  then  the  speaker 
turned  from  the  pulpit  and 
descended  the  platform  steps. 
His  eyes  were  fixed  on  one 
spot  in  the  sanctuary — the 
place  where  all  the  little  old 
ladies  sat.     One  of  the  dear, 


John  mcvay 


old  sisters  was  the  apparent 
object  of  his  stare.  The 
atmosphere  of  reverence  was 
quickly  disintegrating. 

Mrs.  Swanson  had  sat  in 
that  pew  for  years,  peering  up 
at  the  speaker  in  her  own 
unique  way.  You  see,  Mrs. 
Swanson  was  severely  hunch- 
backed. 


intently  into  her  pitiful  eyes 
said,  "Lady,  you  can  sit  up 
straight  now."  Then  shuffling 
past  the  others  in  the  pew,  he 
reached  out  and  held  her 
shoulders.  Mrs.  Swanson  sat 
up  straight! 

The  head  elder  was  terribly 
confused.  What  he  thought 
would  be  praised,  he  now 
reckoned  would  be  the  object 
of  derision;  the  service  was 
ruined.     Feeling  responsible, 


he  stood  and  cleared  his 
throat.  "People,"  (he  dared 
not  address  the  visitor)  "it 
would  be  far  more  appropriate 
if  you  would  arrange  to  be 
healed  on  some  other  day." 

The  guest  speaker,  adding 
insult  to  injury,  turned  and 
addressed  the  men  on  the 
platform.  "You  hypocrites, 
don't  you  let  your  housepets 
outside  on  the  Sabbath?  Then

Leaves  of  Autumn  are  out  in 
full  color  again.  Leaves  is  the 
Campus  Ministry  free  liter- 
ature distribution  program. 
Johnny  Lazor,  director  of  the 
Leaves,  believes  that  through 
it  "much  can  be  done  to 
spread  the  gospel  message  to 
those  around  us." 

The  name  of  the  program 
Lomes  from  a  passage  in  Ellen 
G,  White's  writings  where  hhe 
talks  of  taking  Adventist  books 
and  "scattering  them  like  the 
leaves  of  autumn." 

The  colorful  paperbacks  for 
distribution  include  Steps  to 
Christ,  Desire  of  Ages,  Great 
Controversy,  and  Bible 
Readings  for  the  Home.  Bible 
Study  Guides  are  also  avail- 
able upon  request.  The  books 
do  cost  money,  of  course, 
which  comes  out  of  ihe  Cam- 
pus Ministry  budget.  Because 
of  this,    Lazor   requests   that 


students  take  only  the  liter- 
ature they'll  be  able  to  pass 
out.  The  books  can  be  picked 
up  at  the  literature  rack  in  the 
Student  Center, 

In  past  years  approximately 
2500-3000  books  have  been 
given  out  by  students,  Lazor's 
goal  is  to  have  over  4000  books 
distributed  this  year. 

If  you  have  any  questions, 
suggestions  for  making 
Leaves  of  Autumn  more  bene- 
ficial for  the  students,  or 
requests  for  Bible  Study 
guides,  please  call  Johnny 
Lazor  at  396-3630.

Reflections  on  How  "Moon"  Has  Shown 


DPhil  Garver(Garv) 

Under  the  chairmanship  of 
Dr.  Bud  Moon  the  physical 
Education  Department:  (1) 
has  gotten  3  new  handball 
courts,  (2)  the  track  has  been 
surfaced  and  lit.  (3)  the  Fitness 
testing  and  screening  program 
has  been  started.  (4)  new 
bleachers  have  been  placed  at 
the  ball  fields  (a  great  im- 
provement over  the  old  broken 
up  wooden  ones).  (5)  the  track 
and  field  facilities  have  been 
vastly  improved  and  (6)  sand 
traps  have  been  added  to  our 
much  improved  golf  greens. 

Also.  (7)  pitching  machines 
were  acquired  in  an  attempt  to 
upgrade  the  Softball  program, 

(8)  the  four  old  tennis  courts 
are  being  resurfaced  and  lit, 

(9)  the  gym  is  now  open  and 
supervised  from  8  to  10  two 
evenings  a  week.  (10)  the 
raquetball  courts  are  open  till 
10  four  nights  a  week,  (11)  the 
gymnastics  team  has  received' 
a  42  feet  by  42  feet  free-exer- 
cise   mat    and    much    more 


needed  equipment  and  (12)  we 
now  have  four  people  in  our 
physical  education  depart- 
ment, three  of  whom  have 
their  doctorates. 

I  feel  that  these  accomplish- 
ments speak  for  themselves  in 
behalf  of  the  "Moon." 

Maybe  it  should  be  pointed 
out  that  last  year  the  volleyball 
season  flopped;  there  was  no 
floor  hockey;    there    was    no 


badminton,  ping  pong,  or 
2-man  volleyball  tournaments. 
These  "malfunctions"  were 
not  the  fault  of  the  "Moon," 
and  all  of  these  activities  were 
operational  the  previous  year. 

My  last  point:  writing 
rumors  isn't  in  good  taste!  If 
all  of  the  rumors  on  this 
campus'got  printed,  few  of  us 
would  survive! 


Recreation  Areas  Improved 


undergoing  a  much-needed 
resurfacing  job.  Layers  of 
asphalt  and  Tennis  Mix  (an 
asphalt-sand  combination) 
have  already  been  lain  on  the 
courts  next  to  the  VM,  and  the 
remaining  work  on  these 
courts,  including  the  final 
color  coat,  should  be  com- 
pleted with  two  more  days  of 
dry  weather.     The  resulting 


courts  will  be  medium-speed. 

Other  welcome  additions 
will  include  new  lights,  new 
nets  and  posts  and  wind 
screens  for  the  courts;  work 
will  be  done  patching  the 
cracks  on  the  courts  by  the 
gymnasium  within  the  next 
few  weeks. 

Racquet  ball  enthusiasts 
can  also  look  for- 
ward to  changes  for 
the  better.  Plans 
have  been  made  to 
refmish  old  racquet-

D  Diane  Gainer 

With  scarcely  a  week  left  in 
the  season,  teams  in  each 
division  are  battling  furiously 
for  that  coveted  first-place 
position. 

Ratledge  and  Kryger  re- 
main undefeated  in  the  Wom- 
en's League,  with  Wygal  and 
Uzelac  sharing  a  second-place 
tie.  Sandstrom,  hampered  by 
rancellations  due  to  rain, 
hasn't  gotten  off  the  ground, 
but  has  hope  for  the  week 
ahead. 

In  the  Men's  League, 
Thompson  and  Velasco  lead 
the  Western  Division  with  a 
record  of  2-0.  Stephens, 
Eccles  and  Aalborg  have  also 
posted  two  wins  each  with  a 
varying  number  of  losses. 

Tuuri  and  Stone  are  unde- 
feated in  the  Eastern  Division, 
with  records  of  4-0  and  1-0, 


respectively,  Barrow  looks 
like  a  strong  contender  for  the 
first,  also  with  three  wins  and 
one  loss.  Fowler  and  Knight 
are  just  getting  started  at  1-1 
and  with  a  little  bit  of  luck 
could  come  out  on  top,  too. 


Actually,  upheaval  could 
occur  in  any  of  the  divisions. 
With  some  teams  having 
played  five  games  and  others 
only  one,  there  is  plenty  of 
room  for  surprises. 

Additional 
games  have  been  scheduled  at 
7  p.m.  for  every  regular 
playing  day  during  the  rest  of 
the  season,  so  that  games 
called  off  due  to  rain  will  be 
made  up.

Cafeteria  Cash  Register  Breakdowns  to  End 


DDebra  Gainer 

Yes.  the  Computer  Center  is 
doing  something  about  those 
I  cafeteria  cash  registers  that 
keep  breaking  dov^^  John 
Beckett,  Computer  Services 
Director,  said  that  SMC  has 
ordered  three  cash  register 
terminals  at  $3,890  each  from 
Custom  Terminals  Inc  with 
plans  to  purchase  two  to  four 
if  the   first   three    are 


satisfactory 

Custom  Terminals  Inc 
firom  New  York  has  been 
given  an  Oct  15  deadline  to 
deliver  the  first  of  the  cash 
registers  which  were  ordered 
last  November  Beckett  said 
that  if  the  company  fails  to 
meet  that  deadline  the  con 
tract  will  be  cancelled  and 
SMC  will  look  for  an   alter 


The  problem  with  this  pos 
sibility  IS  that  Custom  Ter 
minals  is  the  only  company 
Beckett  was  able  to  find  in  a 
year  s  search  that  could  build 
terminals  for  SMC  s  system 
Custom  IS  a  small  company — 
with  about  40  employees — 
that  builds  terminals  specifi 
caUy  for  mdividual  i 


needs  Even  big  companies 
such  as  NCR  (National  Cash 
Registers)  and  IBM  (Inter- 
national Business  Machines) 
have  cash  register  terminals 
that  are  either  too  big,  or  too 
slow  or  don  t  have  the  right 
hook  ups  for  SMC's  computer 

The  proposed  new  terminals 
will  be  larger  than  the  old  ones 


and  will  have  special  features 
to  help  train  new  cashiers. 
The  speed  of  the  terminals  will 
be  about  the  same,  but  with 
fewer  breakdowns.  Cafeteria 
lines  should  flow  more 
smoothly,  without  problems 
such  as  station  #3  has  now. 
where  the  computer  doesn't 
register  the  month's  total. 

The  old  terminals  were  pur- 
chased in  1975  and  expected 
to  last  only  about  three  years, 
because  of  the  heavy  use 
they're  subjected  to.  They 
have  since  been  repaired  and 
re-repaired  until  it  is  no  longer 
economical  to  continue  fixing 
them.  At  present,  only  three 
of  the  five  owned  by  SMC  are 
If  all  goes

2  -  THE  SOUTHERN  ACCENT  Thursday,  October  4,  1979 


Opinions 


Art  Majors  Have  To  Swim  To  Easels 


editorial 

A  newspaper,  according  to  Webster,  is  a  regularly  printed' 
publication  "containing  news,  opinions,  advertisements,  and 
other  items  of  general  interest." 

The  Southern  Accent  is  a  student  newspaper,  supported  wrtli 
the  students'  money,  and  written  and  produced  by  the  students. 
The  editors  feel  that  the  Accent  should  also  be/or  the  students, 
printing  the  news,  opinions,  ads,  and  general  items  that  will  b? 
of  importance  or  of  Interest  to  the  majority  of  them. 

Because  there  are  over  2.000  students  on  campus,  and  only 
about  200  faculty  members,  the  Accent  cannot  cater  directly  to 
the  interests  of  the  faculty.  It  cannot,  for  instance,  pnnt  lengthy 
articles  extoUing  one  department's  staff  or  discussmg  one 
teacher's  pet  project.  . 

Similarly,  because  CABL,  or  any  other  campus  organization, 
only  involves  a  percentage  of  the  student  body,  we  cannot  be  a 
newsletter  representing  any  particular  organization. 

The  Accent  editor  has  been  democratically  elected  by  the 
student  body,  thus  it  is  his  responsibility— and  privelege— to 
choose  which  items  will  be  of  most  interest  to  most  of  the 
students,  and  then  to  edit  those  items  as  he  considers 
necessary.  Don't  get  us  wrong.  We're  more  than  happy  to 
receive  contributions  from  both  faculty  and  students— we 
realize  that  our  reporters  can't  adequately  cover  every  new  idea 
or  happening  on  campus. 

It  is  not  our  responsibility  to  endorse  the  opinions  of  every 
person  on  campus  in  article  form  {though  we  can  print  most  of 
them  as  letters  to  the  editor).  We've  gottep  tired  of  people 
coming  to  us  complaining  that  "you  left  two -paragraphs  out  of 
my  story!" 

It  is  our  goal  to  please  the  majority  of  the  people  on  campus, 
but  we  don't  feel  we  can  accomplish  that  by  taking  instructions 
from  the  minority. 


Last  week's  Street  Beat  question  was 
omitted.  It  should  have  read  "What  is  your 

Week   of   Spiritual   Emphi 
campus? ' ' 


Dear  Editor: 

The  art  majors  here  at  SMC 
are  characters  of  true  dedica- 
tion and  determination 
especially  on  rainy  days. 
Although  many  may  not  real- 
ize it,  the  art  department  is 
securely  hidden  in  the  base- 
ment of  Jones  Hall.  This 
obscure  hideaway  is  a  nice 
place  to  relax,  especially  if  you 
like  to  ponder  while  you  paint. 
Not  many  people  frequent  the 
place,  and  being  a  basement 
the  windows  let  in  very  little 
light  (or  fresh  air).  But  they 
do  let  in  water  and  not  just 
littie  trickles. 

Last  Thursday  during  paint- 
ing class  I  had  to  remove  my 
shoes,  roll  up  my  pant  legs 
and  stand  with  my  feet  sub- 
merged in  rainwater  in  order 
my  easel.    And  across 


the 


the 


department,  the  water  cov- 
ered the  entire  floor,  bags  of 
feldspar  had  burst  open  and 
the  wooden  storage  shelves — 
already  warped  from  years  of 
this  treatment— sagged  sadly 
in  the  water.  Fortunately  the 
pottery  wheels  weren't  being 
used  that  day,  as  the  cords 
were  underwater,  and  some 
potential  artisan  could  have 
been  electrocuted  had  they 
tried  to  turn  on  the  machines. 


It's  not  too  hard  to  put  up 
with  musty  odors,  warped 
canvases  and  friendly  crickets 
that  live  in  the  basement  with 
us.  or  to  put  up  with  the 
cramped  conditions  and  cozy 
atmosphere    created    by 

canvases,  stools,  tables  and 
supplies  crowded  into  one 
little  basement  room,  but  the 
ponds,  rivers  and  lakes 
formed  on  the  floor  during  the 
rainy  season  are  hard  to 
ignore  for  long. 

I  suppose  it's  more  impor- 
tant that  the  music  depart- 
ment be  the  first  to  be 
a  new  building, 
least  the  music  majors 


ling 


the 


pianos!  Why  is  it  that  the  art 
majors  complaints  and  needs 
are  the  last  to  be  recognized?

Faculty 
Explains  Why 
He  Doesn't 
Go  To  Chapel 

Dear  Editor: 

I  am  sympathetic  with 
Christine  Schneeberger'  s 

views  {Accent,  Sept.  27)  con- 
cerning faculty  attendance  at 
chapels.  1  wish  only  to 
examine  a  few  factors  from  the 
teacher's  standpoint. 

The  "family"  atmosphere 
that  Miss  Schneeberger  men- 
tions, desirable  though  it  is,  is 
almost  impossible  in  a  college 
.as  large  as  SMC  is  now. 

Chapel  programs  are  plan- 
ned primarily  for  the  students. 
After  a  number  of  years,  some 
of  them  inevitably  become' 
repetitious. 

The  word  "suffer"  ap- 
peared in  Christine's  letter. 
Well,  if  one  feels  that  one 
' '  suffers' '  in  only  four  years  of 
chapels,  would  it  be  humane 
to  tie  the  faculty  to  every 
'  chapel  during  a  career  of  three 
Viecades  or  more? 

But  let's  be  fair.  I'll  tell  you 
What,  Christine.  I'll  go  to  your 
chapels  with  you  if  you  will  go 
to  my  six  committees  with  me !

Worships  Not  Convenient  For  Men 


Dear  Editor: 

I  have  a  complaint — it  is 
about  the  times  set  aside  for 
the  worships  in  the  men's 
dorm.  Itwasjnst  great  during 


CALL  396-43S6 
TO  ORDER 
YOUR  FREE 


the  Week  of  Prayer  to  have  it 
scheduled  for  7  p.m.  It 
seemed  that  not  only  did  I  get 
a  lot  more  accomplished  in  the 
evenings,  but  I  also  was  able 
to  crawl  into  bed  sometimes 
before  10  p.m.  (something  you 
can't  do  when  you  are  re- 
quired to  go  to  a  9:30  or  10:00 
p.m.  worship). 

I  feel  that  the  dorm  wor- 
ships need  to  satisfy  the 
majority  of  the  needs  of  the 
students.  At  9:30  and  10  p.m. 
their  needs  really  can't  be 
satisfied.  For  one  thing  you 
can't  hit  the  sack  before  10 


p.m.  Also  your  studies  are 
interrupted  and  your  concen- 
tration is  lost  by  going  to  these 
late  worships. 

The  young  lovelies  in  the 
women's  dorm  have  morning 
worships.  Why  can't  the 
men?  We're  just  as  capable 
and  as  resourceful  as  they.  Or 
else  why  not  schedule  7  and  10 
p.m.  worship  so  that  we  may 
choose  which  is  more  con- 
venient for  us.

[re  just  a  few  of  the  new 
^eriences  the  SMC 
mphony  Orchestra  found  on 
rofthe  Far  East  last 

iTaking    a    63-member 
Ichestra  alt  the  way  to  the 
s  an  undertaking 
lat  took  a  couple  years  to 

.  Orlo  Gilbert,  orchestra 
Inductor,  first  sent  out 
■eelers"  as  to  who  might 
pnt  them  to  come  and  the 
t  response  did  come 


from  the  Oriental  countries. 
Elder  Clark,  President  of  the 
Far  Eastern  Division,  sent  a 
personal  invitation  urging  the 
orchestra  to  come  there. 

Then  came  the  formidable 
task  of  filing  all  the  necessary 
papers  and  raising  the  needed 
amount  of  money.  "The 
amount  of  government  red 
tape  involved  in  a  trip  like  this 
is  amazing,"  Gilbert  said.  "I 
must  have  had  a  stack  of 
correspondence  afoot  high." 

The  trip  budget  was 
$104,000.  Each  student  and 
faculty  member  paid  $700  and 


Conductor  Orlo  Gilbert  and  wife  Ellen 


»^^-^-^i 


P'ssion  College  in  Hong  Kong 


an  additional  $500  per  person 
was  raised  through  car 
washes,  benefit  films, 
letter-writing    campaigns 
and  the  offerings  received  at 
concerts.  Also,  SMC  donated 
$10,000  for  the  trip. 
According  to  Gilbert,  the 
orchestra  had  enough  funds 
left  over  to  pay  back  a  good 
share  of  the  donation  from  the 
college. 

Some  people  might  wonder 
why  SMC  should  take  their 
'orchestra  alt  the  way  to  the 
Far  East.  Supporters  of  the 
trip  fett  it  was  a 
once-in-a-lifetime  chance 
to  visit  other  cultures,  spread 
goodwill  for  SMC,  acquaint  the 
Far  Eastern  people  with 
classical  music  and  get  a 
firsthand  look  at  the  overseas 
work  of  our  church. 

The  orchestra  left  Chicago 
on  May  9  for  the 
long-awaited  three-week 
tour  of  Japan,  Korea,  Taiwan, 
Hong  Kong,  the  Philippines. 
Thailand  and  Singapore  after 
a  slight  delay.  One  of  the 
orchestra  members  was 
missing.  But  he  was  soon 
found  in  the  cockpit  of  the 
Boeing  747  and  the  trip  got 
underway. 

I  asked  Conductor  Gilbert 
which  concert  stood  out  in  his 
mind  as  the  most  memorable. 


He  easily  replied  that  the  first 
concert  of  the  trip  in  Otaki, 
Japan,  at  a  public  high  schoof 
was  his  favorite.    "The  high 
school  students  were 
extremely  enthusiastic, 
clapping  wildly,  asking  for 
autographs,  and  showering 
flowers  and  presents  on  the 
members,"  Gilbert  said. 
"Then,  students  went  home 
and  advertised  the  orchestra 
to  their  families  and 
neighbors,  so  our  next  concert 
in  Otaki  was  packed." 

'  'The  concert  in  Taiwan  was 
also  special.  The  United 
States  had just  broken 
diplomatic  relations  with 
Taiwan,  so  we  were  very  much 
appreciated.  The  people  just 
couldn't  stop  clapping.  When 
we  played  their  National 
Anthem,  they  sang,  cheered 
and  cried." 

The  national  anthem  of  each 
country  was  always  a  part  of 
the  concert,  except  in  Japan. 
The  Japanese  people  did  not 
want  to  be  reminded  of  the 
harsh  imperialistic  past  they 
endured.  Other  countries 
were  extremely  pleased  when 
the  anthems  were  played. 

The  orchestra  gave  19 
concerts  in  17  days  while  they 
were  in  the  Orient.  During  the 
three-week  tour,  the 


stay  in  private  homes  and 
dormitories.  This  gave  the 
Oriental  people  a  chance  to  do 
something  for  America  for  a 
chance — providing  food, 
housing,  and  being  hosts  for 
Americans  in  a  situation  where 
we  needed  them. 

In  comparing  US  audiences 
with  Oriental  audience::i, 
Gilbert  said,  "the  Oriental 
people  are  more  responsive 
and  enthusiastic.  The  idea  of 
an  American  symphony 
orchestra  coming  to  play  for 
them  was  new  and  exciting. 
We  played  mostly  for  the 
common  people  who  usually 
get  passed  up  by  most  cultural 
events  from  other  countries." 

Playing  in  the  Far  East 
helped    the    morale    of 
orchestra  tremendously.  As 
Gilbert  put  it,  "It's  hard  to  sell 
the  SMC  orchestra  in 
Collegedale." 

As  a  result  of  the  tour  Gilbert 
has  had  numerous  enquiries 
about  future  tours,  but  he 
didn't  mention  any  definite 
plans. 

From  all  who  were  involved 
with  trip,  the  Far  East  tour 
was  acclaimed  a  total  success, 
and  Southern  Missionary 
College  became  a  common 
word  in  many  places  that  had 
heard  of  it.

It  seems  every  Tuesday  and 
Thursday,  on  the  way  to 
chapel,  it's  raining.  Walking 
to  chapel  isn't  that  bad  for  me, 
because  I'm  usually  leaving 
the  dorm  at  11:13  a.m.  and 
most  everyone  is  already 
there.  But  when  chapel  is 
over,  there  are  about  1,800 
people  trying  to  get  to  the 
cafeteria  before  anyone  else, 
and  most  of  them  take  the 
route  right  over  my  back. 

Once  I  went  to  chapel  in  the 
rain  and  didn't  take  my  um- 
brella. So  many  umbrellas 
were  up  I  could  walk  under  the 
moving  tent  to  chapel  and 
back  and  still  have  time  to  buy 
a  loaf  of  bread  at  the  VM,  mail 
a  letter  in  the  post  office,  and 
walk  by  the  CK  and  decide  not 
to  go  in,  without  getting  wet. 

Umbrellas  are  alright  by 
themselves,  but  when  they  are 
in  a  crowd  it  takes  a  little 
patience.  One  day  after 
chapel,  I  was  walking  in  front 
of  this  girl,  who  I  thought  was 
getting  fresh  with  me.  But 
when  I  turned  around  she  had 


and  the  rain  is  coming  in  from 
the  side,  you  have  to  get  the 
correct  angle  to  hold  your 
umbrella  or  the  bottoms  of 
your  pant  legs  will  end  up 
looking  like  a  pack  of  dogs 
mistook  you  for  a  fire  hydrant. 
I  have  noticed  something 
encouraging  about  chapels 
this  year.  They  are  bringing 
people  closer  together.  I've 
seen  up  to  four  people  trying 
to  get  under  the  same  um- 
brella, which  reminds  me  of  a 
basic  mathematical  principle 
that  is  in  effect  on  rainy  chapel 
days.  The  greater  the  square 
footage  of  an  umbrella,  the 
greater  the  number  of  friends.

has  had  for  us,  in  letting  us  be 
called  God's  children,  for  that 
is  what  we  are."  {1  John  3:1 
Goodspeed) 

And  whereas  God  declares, 
"I  even  I,  am  He  who  blots  out 
your  transgressions,  for  my 
own  sake,  and  remembers 
your  sins  no  more."  (Isaiah 
43:25  NIV) 

And  whereas,  ".  ,  .  though 
a  righteous  man  falls  seven 
times,  he  rises  again."  (Pro- 
verbs 24:16  NIV) 

I  do  hereby  declare  my 
freedom  to  be  all  that,  through 
the  Holy  Spirit,  I  am  prompted 
to  become — unimpeded  by 
failures  and  falls;  recognizing 
my  constant  need  of  all  true 
spiritual  influences,  and  real- 
izing that  my  signature  on  this 
"Manifesto  of  Freedom" 
would  be  meaningless,  for  it 
was  signed  by  One  far 
stronger,  and  infinitely  more 
able  to  accomplish  all  that  is 
herein  stated,  long  ago,  on  a 
hill  called  Calvary,  in  blood.

Ashton  Piano  Recital 
to  be  Held  on  Sunday 


DDebra  Gainer 

The  SMC  Music  Depart- 
ment presents  Dr.  J.  Bruce 
Ashton  in  piano  recital  at  8:00 
p.m.,  Oct.  7,  in  Miller  Hall. 
While  Ashton  doesn't  follow  a 
specific  annual  recital  sched- 
ule, he  hasn't  missed  giving  a 
concert  in  the  eight  years  he's 
been  at  SMC. 

Ashton's  recital  will  feature 
Theme  and  Variations  by 
Faure,  Sonata  in  B-flat  by 
Mozart,  and  a  set  pf  eight 
pieces  from  Opus  76  by 
Brahams. 

The  Brahams  selections  will 
be  divided  into  two  sets  of 
four,  which  will  frame  the 
program  at  beginning  and 
end.  The  Mozart  piece  is  of 
special  interest  because  it 
includes  a  cadenza  in  the  last 

vation  for  a  sonata,  because 
cadenzas  are  usually  found 
strictly  in  concertos. 

This  recital,  said  Ashton, 
will  not  be  "flashy  and  flam- 


boyant," but  rather  "rela- 
tively gentle  and  quiet." 

Ashton  received  his  doc- 
torate degree  in  piano  from 
the  University  of  Cincinnati  in 
1971.  Before  coming  to  SMC, 
he  taught  music  at  Walla 
Walla  College.  This  past 
summer  he  traveled  with  the 
orchestra  to  the  Far  East, 
where  he  performed  a  Schu- 
mann concerto  with  the  nr- 
chestra. 

He  particularly  remembers; 
discovering  three  days  before 
the  concert  in  Korea  that  the 
performance  of  a  particular 
Korean  folk  tune  was  required 
at  every  public  concert.  Ashton 
got  a  copy  of  the  song  and 
found  it  too  difficult  to  learn 
that  quickly.  So  he  composed 
a  couple  of  simpler  improvi- 
sations on  the  tune  while 
traveling  on  the  airline  to 
Korea.  With  a  half  hour's 
practice  before  the  concert, 
the  new  version  of  the  folk 
tune  was  successful.

WSMC   Constructs  Satellite  Receiver  for 
National  Public   Radio  Programming 


D  Valerie  Dick 

WSMC-FM  broke  ground 
for  the  construction  of  a 
satellhe  receiving  station  Sun- 
day, Oct,  7.  The  receiving 
station,  which  is  one  of  200 
such  stations  being  built  ac- 
ross the  country,  will  receive 
signals  from  National  Public 
Radio  (NPR)  via  a  satellite 
orbiting  over  the  equator. 

When  asked  what  the  re- 
ceiving station  would  provide, 
WSMC  Manager  Don  Self 
said,  "The  primary  advantage 


is  that  program  decisipn- 
making  power  will  be  given  to 
NPR  member  stations."  The 
system  will  also  increase  the 
technical  quality  of  programs 
received  from  the  network. 
"Our  present  system  is  lim- 
ited in  that  the  high  frequen- 
cies associated  with  music 
cannot  be  transmitted." 
remarked  Self.  He  added, 
"The  new  system  will  provide 
the  full  audio  spectrum  of 
music  making  it  sound  more

presently  NPR  can  send  only 
one  program  to  WSMC  at  a 
time.  With  the  new  sysiem 
installed,  WSMC  will  receive 
programs  from  the  network 
through  four  separate  chan- 
nels. Within  a  year  there 
should  be  12  channels  and

will  make  it  possible  for

Jones  Resident  Disagrees  with  Rules 


editorial 

Last  year  it  was  a  glaring  gold,  this  year  it's  a  fire  engine  red. 
SMC  swimmers  know  the  significance  of  these  colors.  They 
loudly  proclaim  to  the  lifeguard  and  the  population  of  the  pool 
that  we  have,  in  fact,  paid  our  dollar  for  the  honor  of  aquatic 


However,  it's  still  a  mystery  to  us  why  a  dollar  is  charged  for 
a  round  piece  of  felt  with  "elaborate"  cam  stitching.  The 
racquetball ,  tennis,  and  basketball  buffs  receive  no  such 
privilege,  neither  do  the  joggers,  yet  all  wear  down  courts  and 
track  alike.  Why.  then,  are  the  swimmers  stuck  with  such 
special  treatment.  Why  must  we  pay  for  a  "badge"  to  prove  we 
are  students  so  we  may  exercise,  when  all  others  are  taken  for 
granted  and  go  undecorated. 

Perhaps,  we  could  just  show  our  ID  card  and  be  presented 
with  a  badge  or  merely  flash  our  cards  before  each  swim  to 
prove  our  validity  as  a  student.  Or  maybe  have  all  who  use  the 
P.E.  facilities  pay  a  dollar  and  be  granted  "The  Token" — the

Dear  Editor: 

Recently  we  had  an  incident 
that  warranted  some  form  of 
discipline  to  a  resident  of 
Jones  Hall.  However,  to 
coerce  the  will  of  every  resi- 
dent because  of  one  man's 
folly  to  obey  the  rules  will  not 
only  hinder  him  in  good 
character  development  but 
also  the  innocent  involved. 
These  rules  I  am  referring  to 
are  the  compulsory  worships, 
room  checks  and  late  leaves 
for  the  residents  of  Jones  Hall. 

We  are  adults.  Give  us  the 
responsibility  of  being  re- 
sponsible adults.  Let  us  have 
our  own  choice  to  choose  and 
in  choosing  develop  a  better 
character.  Our  character  is 
our  passport  to  heaven.  The 
college  should  not  mold  the 
students'  characters  to  be-

decisions,  even  wrong  ones.

Student  Missionary  Sends  Greetings  from  Kwang-Ju,  Korea 


Dear  Editor: 

Greetings  from  Korea!  It  is 
3  real  blessing  being  here. 
It's  really  hard  to  believe  I've 
already  been  here  over  four 
monthsl  Things  are  really 
going  great!  Kwang-Ju  is  a 
great  city  to  be  in,  and  the 
Lord  is  really  blessing  our 
work  greatly  here.  The  popu- 
lation is  about  700,000.  and 
the  people  are  really  friendly. 
The  weather  in  Korea  is  just 
wonderful — it's  just  starting 
to  get  cool. 

Jesus  sure  has  led  my  life  in 
a  great  wayl  This  is  going  to 
be  the  best  year  of  my  life! 
Working  for  Jesus  is  the  best 


work  you  can  ever  do!  I've 
really  learned  to  depend  upon 
Christ  more  since  I've  been  in 
Korea.  Sometimes  I  don't 
know  what  to  do  in  a  situation, 
maybe  with  one  of  my  stu- 
dents, but  Jesus  sure  knows 
how  to  handle  the  situation! 
"Praise  the  Lord!" 

1  really  miss  SMC  a  lot  and 
all  my  fi'iends,  but  Jesus  has  a 
great  work  for  me  to  do  here  in 
Korea.  If  any  of  you  ever  feel 
the  Lord  giving  you  the  im- 
pression in  your  life  to  be  an 
SM,  don't  hold  back.  Jesus 
needs  you!  With  much 
prayer,  move  forward  in  faith

will  be  the  happiest  person

Jesus  in  a  foreign  land — He 
will  always  be  with  you. 

When  1  first  thought  about 
being  an  SM  I  had  a  few 
hesitations  but  after  talking  to 
Mark  Driskill,  Rick  Johnson, 
Dave  Prest  and  all  the  other 
former  SMs  ,  my  feelings  of 
hesitation  went  away.  Es- 
pecially praying  about  it  and 
allowing  Jesus  to  lead  in  my 
life  1  felt  really  confident. 
Looking  back  at  it  now,  I  can

If  any  of  you  want  to  know 
about  Korea  and  our 
school  work  here,  pit 
to  me.  I  will  tell  you  as  much 
as  I  can!  I  would  ask  each  of 
you  to  remember  me  in  your 


prayers  that  Jesus  will  con- 
tinue to  use  me  as  an  effective 
tool  for  Him.  Also  please 
remember  all  the  SM's  in  your 
prayers.  Write  us  when  you 
can!  We'd  really  love  to  hear 
from  you!  So,  if  you  want  to 
know  more  about  mission  life, 
write.  I  will  always  answer  all 
the  letters. 

I  want  to  say  a  big  hello  to 
all  my  friends  and  to  all  the 
new  students  at  SMC  and  the 
faculty,  too.  Jesus  is  really 
blessing,  and  I'm  very  excited 
to  be  working  for  Him!  Each 
day  is  a  new  experience  in 
Jesus!  Miss  and  love  you  all! 
Remember  the  promise  in  1

rimental  to  his  character. 

Christ  never  compels  us  to 
follow  Him.  Hejustshowsusa 
better  way.  We  too  can  show 
our  brother  a  better  way  to 
travel,  yet  the  choice  is  his. 

Let  me  make  some  sug- 
gestions. Let  us  deal  with  the 
situation  and  not  with  the 
character  of  the  guilty  or  the 
characters  of  the  innocent. 
We  all  leave  much  room  for 

building,  but  to  reprimand  the 
whole  student  body  (guilty  or 
innocent  alike)  is  the  most 
deplorable  act   the   Adminis- 

must  the  innocent  suffer  for 
the  guilty?  The  Adminis- 
tration should  talk  to  the 
individual  concerned.  If  he 
does  not  cooperate  with  the 
College,  then  the  individual 
may  be  advised  to  leave  SMC 
or  his  own  accord  or  be 
expelled. 

There  will  be  no  blessing 
upon  the  College  or  the 
students  if  the  attitude  of 
worship  is  forced;  sadly  to  say, 
no  souls  will  be  saved  either. 
For  to  compel  or  restrict  one's 
freedom  of  choice  is  neither 
right  nor  safe.  God  is  my 
Judge,  and  this  I  freely 
choose! 


Thursday,  October  11,  1979  THE  SOUTHERN  ACCENT  ■ 

Student  Wants  Remedy  for  "Pounded- to-Death"  Library  Typewriters 


Dear  Editor: 

There  are  some  definite 
problems  concerning  the 
typewriters  in  the  library  that  I 
would  like  the  administration 
and  faculty  to  be  aware  of. 

First  of  all,  most  teachers 
require  papers,  reports,  re- 
search projects,  etc.,  to  be 
typed.  It  is  almost  impossible 
3  hand  in  a  well-typed  paper 
using  the  typewriters  in  the 
library  in  their  present  condi- 
.  If  you  don't  own  your 
1  typewriter  or  don't  know 


of  one  you  can  borrow,  you  are 
usually  out  of  luck— especially 
if  you  are  a  village  student. 

The  next  problem  is  one  of 
scarcity.  There  are  abou't 
2.000  students  here  at  SWC. 
and  this  means  that  ther«  are 
about  250  students  ^rer  type- 
writer. Could  something  pos- 
sibly be  done  to  obtain  more 
typewriters  so  the  waiting 
lines  won't  be  so  long?  I  have 
personally  waited  for  as  long 
as  an  hour  for  a  typewriter. 


Perhaps  an  SA  project  could 
be  put  into  effect  to  get  more 
typewriters. 

Concerning  the  condition  of 
the  present  machines,  they 
are  in  sad  shape.  There  are 
five  IBM  selectrics  and  three 
(very  ancient)  Royal  manuals 
available  to  students.  The 
IBM's,  which  are  used  most  of 
the  time,  are  sluggish,  and 
sometimes  just  plain  nasty. 
They  will  sometimes  add  little 
extra    things    to    what    you 


typed,  making  your  work  look 
jumbled.  Often  certain  letters 
will  not  type,  so  you  must  try 
several  different  typewriters 
before    you    can    finish    your 

I  spoke  to  Mrs.  Doherty, 
who  is  in  charge  of  the 
typewriters,  about  this  situa- 
tion.   She  said,  "over  a  year 


the 


told  I 


that  the  IBM  selectrics 
worn  out."    This  is  obviously 
true    because   the    library    is 


.classified  ads, 


open  75  hours  a  week  and  this 
means  the  typewriters  get  a 
lot  of  use.  The  IBM's  were 
given  to  the  college  as  a  gift 
from  the  senior  class  of  1975, 
and  they  were  used  to  begin 
with.  After  four  years  of 
constant  use  the  typewriters 
have  practically  been  pounded 
to  death. 

Can  something  be  done  to 
correct  this  situation? 
Sincerely  yours, 
Jane  E.  Toomajanian

SMC  Cafeteria    Caters  for 
Hang  Gliding  Competition 


The  SMC  cafeteria  doesn't 
always  supply  food  only  for 
non-appreciative  students.  In 
fact,  later  this  month,  the 
cafeteria  will  cater  to  a  crowd 
of  50,000  to  80,000  people— 
the  competitors  and  spectators 
at  the  American  Cup  Inter- 
national Hang  Gliding  Cham- 
pionship    on  Lookout  Moun- 


This  past  spring,  when  a 
catering  deal  fell  through  with 
Krystal  Company,  the  hang 
gliding  organizers  contacted  a 
friend  at  Wildwood  Sanitar- 
ium, whom  they'd  met  the 
previous  year.  Wildwood  was 
asked  to  operate  the  con- 
cession stands,  but  they 
turned  the  offer  down  because 
of  the  size  of  the  crowd.  They 
did.  however,  refer  the  organ- 
izers to  Georgia-Cumberland 
Conference,  who  in  turn  re- 
ferred them  to  Southern  Mis- 
sionary College. 

The  organizers  agreed  to 
have  SMC  cater  for  the  cham- 
pionship because  many  of  the 
competitors  are  quite  health- 
minded  in  order  to  be  in  good 
condition  for  the  sport.  Mc- 
Donalds. Arbys,  and  other 
fast-food  chains  in  the  area 
were  turned  down.  It  is 
expected  that  the  competitors 
will  appreciate  the  switch  to 
vegetarian  food. 

"We'll  just  be  serving  the 
same  kind  of  food  that  we 
serve  to  the  students  here," 
explained  Earl  Evans,  food 
service  director.  Prices  will  be 
somewhat  higher,  but  that  is 
necessary  to  cover  expenses, 
not  to  make  a  profit. 

SMC  will  cater  during  each 
day  of  the  competition  except 
Saturday.  Stands  will  be  set 
up  under  the  red-and-white 
striped  tent  which  the  College 
bought  last  summer  to  use  on 
College  Days  and  other  big- 
crowd  1 


iquipment  needed  1 
:  stands.  One 
is  lending  nine  juice  dispen- 
sers that  would  have  cost  over 
$3500.  Mayfield  Dairy  Farms 
is  donating  the  use  of  one  of 
their  trucks  for  hauling  food  to 
the  site.  Another  person  will 
loan  his  microwave  oven.  All 
food  will  be  prepared  and 
frozen  ahead  of  time,  then 
re-heated 
stands. 

The  competition 
place  Oct.    13-21   ; 
Space  Inc.  flying  si__  .

Division   of 
JSursing  is 
Given  Grant 

DMelissa  Smith 

The  Division  of  Nursing  has 
been  awarded  a  $29,900  Cap- 
atation  Grant  by  the  govern- 
ment to  promote  health  ser- 
vice education. 

"We  are  allotted  a  certain 
amount  of  money  for  each 
full-time,  first  year  nursing 
student  enrolled  in  our  pro- 
gram," explained  Nursing 
Director  Ina  Longway.  "The 
grant  is  a  supplement  tuition 
and  allows  us  to  keep  tuition 

The  actual  cost  per  hour  for 
nursing  is  $140,  but  by  receiv- 
ing grants,  the  students  are 
only  charged  the  same  tuition 
rate  as  other  SMC  students. 

"Even  though  this  is  a 
government  grant, ' '  added 
Longway,  "we  are  under  no 
obligations;  there  are  no 
strings    attached    other   than 

and  a  report  to  show  effective 
spending." 

The  grant  is  to  be  used  for 
equipment,  books,  instruc- 
tors' salaries,  renovations  and 
alterations  of  buildings  and 
in-service  continuing  educa- 
tion, but  it  may  not  be  used  for 
any  religious  instruction  or 
purpose. 


Kitchen. 

"We  want  to  enlarge  the 
CK  to  about  3.000  to  5,000 
square  feet."  Business  Man- 
ager Richard  Reiner  stated. 
"We  will  have  to  either  move 
the  laundromat  or  build  a 
separate  building  for  a  new 
CK." 

Because  the  eatery  is  a 
break-even  operation,  the  vol- 
ume of  sales  would  have  to 
increase  or  higher  prices 
would  have  to  be  charged  to 
accommodate    the    raise    in 

Reiner  explained  that  a 
price  hike  is  less  favorable, 
and  also  less  likely  since  sales 
would  probably  grow  as  a 
result  of  the  newer  and  more 
convenient  facility. 

The  feasibility  study  should 
be  completed  in  three  months 
and  if  a  separate  building  is 
opted  for,  construction  will 
begin  next  summer.  The  site 
of  the  current  CK  would 
possibly  be  converted  into, 
office  space.

Do  you  think  SMC  should  sponsor  another  Ingathering  Field  Day  next  year? 


Victor  Czerkasij.  freshman,  communications-broadcasting.  Peckskille,  NY:  I 
didn't  go  this  year.  Last  time  I  did,  they  took  me  to  the  police  station  for  3  hours. 
But  it's  a  good  day  to  get  your  homework  done. 


Bert  Ringer,  freshmi 
we  need  to  support  i 
Ingathering  is  to  me 


1,  theology.  Bryant.  Ala.:  Yes.  As  college  SDA  students, 
jr  church  and  its  projects.  To  me  the  greatest  reason  for 
t  people  on  their  level  and  share  Christ's  love  with  them. 


Laura  Kuhn.  freshman,  nursing.  Oshawa.  Ontario:  I  didn't  go  this  year,  but  I 
still  think  it's  a  good  idea.  It  gives  the  kids  a  chance  to  catch  up  on  their 
homework  or  witness  if  they  want  to. 

vistry.  Louisville.  Ky.:    Yes.    Gives  the  kids  an 


Ron  Barrow,  sophomore,  physical  education,  CoUegedale,  Tenn.:  Yes  we  dol! 
Ingathering  is  a  way  for  the  kids  in  our  church  to  get  out  in  the  world  and 
witness,  plus  a  way  for  non-SDA's  to  see  what  we  stand  for  and  realize  that  the 
funds  we  raise  help  the  community  in  time  of  need. 


JaniHanson.  sophomore.  English.  CoUegedale.  Tenn.:  I  did  go  Ingathering  this 
year,  but  in  general  I  don't  particularly  enjoy  it.  1  feel  uncomfortable  asking 
people  for  money,  however,  I  believe  that  meeting  people  and  sharing  Jesus  is  a 
(positive)  aspect  of  the  program. 

Evan  Chesney.  Junior.  English.  Cleveland.  Tenn. :  Oh  yes,  I  was  up  to  my  neck 
in  studies,  and  accomplished  a  whole  lot.  I'm  not  much  of  an  Ingatherer,  but  it's 
great  tor  those  who  can  do  it.    I'd  just  as  soon  donate  SIO. 

Gary  Thurber.  sophomore,  religion.  Charlotte,  NC:  Yeah,  I  think  so.  It's  a  good 
opportunity  for  a  lot  of  kids  to  witness  that  ordinarily  wouldn't  have  the  guts  to. 


Debra  Gainer,  senior.  English-journalism 
should,  because  the  students  appreciate  a  d

Though  WSMC  first  learned

1977.  At  that  time  a  repre-

City  Now 
Enforcing 
Parking  Law 

The  city  of  CoUegedale  has 
begun  to  strictly  enforce  the 

parking  a  vehicle  opposite  the 
flow  of  traffic. 

This  ordinance  concerns 
mainly  those  who  park  in  front 
of  the  gymnasium.  All  cars 
parked  in  front  of.  the  gym 
must  be  facing  north  (toward 
the  Village  Market).  Failure  to 
park  in  the  right  direction  will 
result  in  a  parking  ticket  of  S3. 
If  this  ticket  is  not  paid  within 
ten  days,  it  will  be  increased 

$5. 

The  ordinance  has  been  a 
city  law  for  many  years  but 
has  not  been  strictly  enforced. 
The  main  reason  for  the  law  is 
that  it  is  dangerous  to  pull  out 
into  the  other  lane  to  park. 

The  city  also  wants  to 
remind  residents  that  bicycles 
are  considered  vehicles  by  the 
law  and  are  required  to  be 
ridden  with  the  flow  of  traffic. 

Those  jogging  along  the  city 
roads  are  requested  to  run 
facing  the  traffic  and  in  single 
file.  This  is  not  a  city 
ordinance  but  is  suggested  for 
one's  own  protection.

Secret  Brother  Finally  Answers 

Dear  Secret  Sis, 

Sorry  I've  taken  so  long  to 
reply,  but  you  know  how  it  is. 
I  was  sitting  around  the  room 
and  I  didn't  feel  like  doing 
anything,  so  1  decided  to  write 
you  back. 

Thanks  for  the  cookies  you 
sent  me  about  three  weeks 
ago.  I  just  got  them  and 
they're  still  kind  of  fresh.  I 
usually  don't  get  any  impor- 
tant mail,  just  that  stuff  the 
dorm  sends  out  about  missing 
worships  and  the  letters  the 
Dean  of  Students  sends  out 
about  wearing  blue  jeans,  so  I 
usually  don't  check  my  mail- 
box. But  I  looked  in  there 
yesterday  and  found  a  slip 
saying  I  had  a  package  at  the 
desk.  The  desk  worker  finally 
found  it  and  dusted  it  off  for 
me.  The  cookies  were  pretty 
good.  They  were  the  first 
green    cookies    I    had    ever 

About  the  questions  you 
asked  in  your  first  letter,  I  was 
a  business  major;  I  lived  in 
Atlanta;    and    I    had     three 


Greenleaf  Publishes  Review 


sisters.  When  your  second 
letter  came,  1  was  majoring  in 
biology,  living  in  Pittsburgh, 
and  I  had  three  sisters  and  a 
brother.  When  your  last  letter 
arrived  three  weeks  ago,  I  was 
majoring  in  history,  living  in 
Orlando,  and  I  had  three 
sisters,  one  brother,  two 
brothers-in-law,  three  nieces, 
and  a  nephew  graduating  from 
the  Loma  Linda  University.  I 
will  try  to  write  back  a  little 
quicker  next  time. 

Since  you  are  ray  "Secret" 
Sister.  I'm  supposed  to  try  and 
find  out  who  you  are.  I  have  a 
few  questions  I  want  you  to 
answer  about  yourself  to  give 
me  a  start.  What  is  your 
major?    What  grade  are  you 


The  History  Teacher,  a 
major  history  journal,  has 
asked  Dr.  Floyd  Greenleaf, 
chainnan  of  the  history  de- 
partment, to  write  a  book 
review  for  the  journal. 

The  book  review  Dr.  Green- 
leaf will  be  writing  covers  A

published  it  and  asked  Dr. 
Greenleaf  to  do  another  one. 

Dr.  Greenleaf  considers  The

Last  May  the  workers  at 
Tasba  Raya  Mission  in  Nica- 
ragua, including  five  student 
■  s  from  SMC  found 


ary 


Nicaragua. 

'llie  lives  of  the 
were  not  actually  threatened, 
but  the  continuous  outbreats 
of  violence  were  getting  closer 
to  the  mission  located  ap- 
proximately 300  miles  north- 
east of  the  capitol,  Managua. 
Also  the  shortage  of  many 
supplies  made  it  very  difficult 
to  operate  the  clinics. 

The  College'  set  up  the 
mission  eight  years  ago  and 
has  since  sent  students^^^nd 
funds  to  operate  the  yfuission 
for  the  Miskito  Indians. 

SMC  had  planned  to  turn 
their  mission  over  to  the 
Nicaragua  Mission  in  the 
summer  of  1980,  but  because 
of  civil  war  in  the  country,  the 
College  felt  that  it  should  pull 


out  one  year  early, 
turned  over  the  entire  inven- 
tory and  buildings  to  the 
Nicaragua  Mission. 

The  Adventist  Church  in 
Nicaragua  had  requested  con- 
tinued involvement  by  the 
College,  but  after  Dr.  Frank 
Knittel  and  Dr.  Floyd  Green- 
leaf visited  the  country,  they 
decided  that  it  would  be  wise 
to  end  the  student  missionary 
program  in  Tasba  Raya.  They 
are.  however,  contemplating 
some  financial  assistance  to 
help  the  Nicaragua  Mission  to 
operate  Tasba  Raya  and  also 
to  compensate  for  the  early 
withdrawal  of  SMC. 

Dr.  Greenleaf  feels  that  the 


student  missionary  program 
has  had  a  marked  effect  on  the 
living  conditions  of  the  Mis- 
kito Indians.  Their  health 
habits  have  improved;  ap- 
proximately 75  people  have 
joined  the  church;  and  the 
economy  has  grown  because 
the  mission  provided  trans- 
portation for  the  Indians  to  sell 
their  produce  in  the  citj'. 

Mike  and  Norma  Barber, 
former  directors  of  Tasba 
Raya  are  now  working  at  the 
Adventist  hospital  in  the  Val- 
ley of  the  Angels,  Honduras. 
The  College's  agreement  with 
them  still  has  one  mote  year  to 
go,  so  SMC  is  sharing  the

He  remembered  the  first 
stark  moment  in  this  place. 
His  eyes  had  been  used  to  the 
clear,  eternal  scenery  of  the 
desert;  his  lungs  accustomed 
to  the  refreshing  vitality  of  the 
dry  desert  winds.  When  he 
was  thrust  into  this  "cozy" 
corner,  his  nostrils  had  been 
filled  with  the  vilest  of 
stenches:  his  eyes,  growing 
used  to  the  darkness,  reeled  at 
the  filth  of  the  scene.  The 
floor  of  the  small  cell,  covered 
with  a  mixture  of  mire  and 
straw,  was  to  provide  for  all  of 
his  needs. 

But  now,  in  the  gross  mo-

Velasco  slipped  past  Tuuri 
to  clinch  the  Men's  League 
Softball  Championship  with  a 
one-run  lead  in  the  final  game 
of  the  season. 

Tuuri  claimed  the  lead  early 
in  the  game  when  David 
Miller  was  awarded  a  base  on 
balls  and  later  rounded  the 
bases  to  make  the  first  run. 
Base  hits  by  Joshua  Zaran-

two-base  hit  by  Mike  Dowell 
were  also  turned  into  runs  to 
give  Tuuri  a  4-0  lead  over 
^Velasco  in  the  top  of  the  third 
inning. 

Velasco  answered  with  a

Mosley  scored  again  in  the 
fourth  inning,  widening 
Tuuri's  lead  to  5-1.  Tryon 
slugged  a  long  ball  out  to  right 
field  for  a  two-base  hit  in  the 
bottom  of  the  fourth  but  was 
stopped  by  three  successive 

Zarandona  and  Dowell  got 
base  hits  and  were  batted  in 
with  a  two-base  hit  by  Meyer 
and  a  hard  grounder  to  short- 
stop by  Mark  Tuuri. 

Velasco's  team  abruptly 
leaped  to  life  in  the  bottom  of 
the  fifth  when  Tryon  hit  a 
home  run,  batting  in  team 
members  Rouse,  Boyd  and 
Culpepper  and  bringing  Ve- 
lasco up  to  a  threateningly 
close  score  of  5  runs  to  Tuuri's 
7. 

Tuuri  seemed  to  choke  un- 
der the  pressure  of  Velasco's 
comeback  and  gave  up  the 
next  inning  without  a  hit. 
Lopes  made  a  base  hit  for 
Velasco  and  was  batted  in  by 
Velasco  and  Culpepper  for  a 
sixth-inning  score  of  7-6. 

Tuuri  got  one  hit  in  the 
seventh  inning  but  wasn't  able 
to  score.  Rouse  got  on  base 
for  Velasco  and  tagged  up 
after  a  long  fly  to  right  field  by 
Tomer  to  tie  the  score  7-7  in 
the  last  inning. 

An  extra  inning  was  played, 
and  tension  mounted  as  Tuuri 
gave  up  the  first  half  without 
scoring.  Mayes  and  Lopes  got 
on  base  for  Velasco.  and  Ned 
Velasco  came  through  with  a 
base  hit  to  bat  Mayes  in  for 
the  winning  run.

first  session  of  the  mini- 
senunar  classes.  The  semi-

blocks  on  Thursday,  Friday 
and  Sunday.  Continuing  edu- 
cation credit  is  available  for 
those  who  attend  all  six  hours. 
There  will  be  a  S3  fee  for  those

professor  of  English,  will  hold 
a  seminar  on  "The  Death  of

art    and    philosophy.        The 


seminar  begins  at  7:30  p.m.  in 
Room  111,  Daniells  Hall. 

Ellen  Gilbert,  associate

siastes  and  the  Song  of  Solo- 
mon. Gladson  feels  that  these

calls  his  seminar  "Orphans  in 
the  Household  of  Faith."  It 
begins  at  7:30  p.m.  Thursday

Sons  of  the  Pioneers  to  Sing  Here 


As  a  part  of  the  Alumni 
Homecoming  celebration, 
SMC  will  present  the  western 
singing  group,  the  Sons  of  the 
Pioneers,  Saturday  night.  Oct. 
20,  in  the  Physical  Education 
Center.  There  will  be  two 
performances  at  8  and  9:50 


The  Sons  of  the  Pioneers  are 
probably  the  most  famous 
country-western  group  in  the 
entertainment  world.  For  half 
a  century,  their  distinctive 
harmonies  have  conjured  up 


images  of  sagebrush,  camp- 
fires  and  cowboys. 

The  legend  began  in  1934 
when  Leonard  Slye,  later  to 
become  known  as  Roy  Rogers, 
organized  the  little-known 
Pioneer  Trio.  The  original 
three  later  became  five,  with 
the  new  name  "Sons  of  the 
Pioneers."  Bob  Nolan  and 
Tim  Spencer,  original  trio 
members,  wrote  for  the  group, 
including  such  Western  clas- 
sics as  "Tumbling  Tumble- 
weed,"  "Coo!  Waters,"  and 


"Room  Full  of  Roses." 

The  Sons  of  the  Pioneers 
have  appeared  in  more  than 
300  television  programs  and 
more  than  lOO  motion  pic- 
tures, appearing  with  such 
stars  as  John  Wayne,  Bing 
Crosby  and  Gene  Autry.  They 
have  sold  over  20  million 
record  albums,  and  they  hold 
all-time  box  office  records  for 
live  appearances  in  such 
places    as    the    Salt    Palace

SA  Plans  to  Make  a  Deal 


DLes  Musselwhite 

On  Saturday  night,  the  27th 
of  October,  at  approximately 
10:30  p.m.,  (or  whenever  the 
WSMC  benefit  is  over),  the 
Student  Association  will  once 
again  go  into  action. 

Student  Services  will  be 
sponsoring  the  popular  and 
well-known  game  show, 
"Let's  Make  a  Deal."  It  is 
expected  that  several  hundred 
students  will  be  on  hand,  fully 
decked  out  in  their  simple  or 
outrageous  costumes  hoping 
to  be  a  contestant  in  the  game. 
In  their  possession  will  be 
treasured  items  that  they  wish 
to  trade  in  on  a  deal. 

There  will  be  many  oppor- 
tunities to  win  outstanding 
prizes.  The  value  of  these 
prizes  range  from  an  average 
deal  of  S5,  S25,  S50  or  even 
more,  all  the  way  to  the  big 
deal  which  could  be  worth 
$350  or  more!  Of  course,  as  in 


the  television  game  sh&w, 
there  will  be  many  opportu- 
nities to  get  zonked,  as  well. 

Tickets  for  the  "Let's  Make 
a  Deal"  program  may  be 
purchased  at  the  Student 
Center  or  the  SA  office  for  SI 
and  this  may  be  placed  on 
your  ID  card.  Only  those 
ticket  holders  who  are  in 
costume  will  be  eligible  to  be 
contestants.  Each  wUl  fill  out 
his  name  on  a  card  and  place  it 
in  a  box  as  he  enters  the  gym. 
Then  the  contestants  will  be

the  master  of  ceremonies  be- 
So  let  your  imagination 
wander.  Of  course,  modesty 
and  good  taste  are  always  in 
order.  Whether  you  want  to 
be  a  contestant  in  the  SA's 
"Let's  Make  a'TJi^al"  pro- 
gram or  simply  wish  to  take  a

SA  Senate  Petitions   Talge  Deans  to  Change  Evening  Worship  Schedule 


Dear  Editor: 

The  following  letter  is  a 
copy  of  a  letter  sent  to  Dean 
Schlisner  with  instructions  for 
it  to  be  sent  to  Dean  Campbell 
and  The  Southern  Accent.  It 
deals  with  the  worship  situa- 
tion in  Talge  Hall. 

Dear  Mr,  Schlisner: 

Prior  to  our  last  Senate 
meeting  on  Monday,  Oct.  15, 
1979,  several  requests  were 
made  that  the  subject  of  the 
present  worship  schedule  be 
put  on  the  agenda.  After 
spending  considerable  time 
discussing  the  acclaimed  pro- 
blems of  the  present  worship 
schedule,  a  solution  was  sug- 
gested and  the  Student  As- 
Senate  came  to  a 
decision.  Before 
reaching  this  decision,  several 


problems  were  pointed  out  by 
the  Senate  members.  These 
are  just  a  few  of  the  more 
important  reasons  brought  up 
in  the  Senate: 

1]  Worships  at  9:30  and  10 
p.m.  do  not  allow  sufficient 
choice  to  the  residents  of 
Talge  Hall  and  overall  are  not 
convenient  to  students. 

2]  It  creates  a  problem  in 
that  each  resident  must  be  in 
the  dorm  by  10  p.m.  even 
though  curfew  isn  't  until  10:30 
p.m.  It  makes  the  11  p.m. 
curfew  for  seniors   meaning- 

uted 


solution  as  far  as  the  majority 
is  concerned.  Some  students 
prefer    to    have    their    own 


Reiner  Proposes  Solution  for 
Library  Typewriter  Problem 


Dear  Editor: 

We  were  fortunate  enough 
to  receive  a  copy  of  the  letter 
written  by  Jane  Toomajanian 
(Oct.  11)  concerning  the  type- 
writers in  the  library.  On 
Tuesday,  Oct.  9,  the  Adminis- 
trative Council  discussed  the 
contents  of  this  letter  and  the 
problem  of  the  old  worn  out 
typewriters  in  the  library. 
While  the  typewriters  were 
provided  as  a  gift  and  there 
was  to  be  no  additional  ex- 
pense to  anyone,  yet  it  would 
be  difficult  now  that  people 
have  gotten  used  to  using 
them  to  either  take  them  out 
or  not  replace  them.  There  is 
probably  no  college  anywhere 
that  provides  adequate  type- 
writers for  its  student  body, 


but  in  hopes  of  trying  to 
provide  this  service,  the  Ad- 
ministrative Council  offers  the 
following  proposal. 

The  Ad  Council  would  be 
willing  to  buy  three  typewrit- 
ers if  the  SA  and  future  senior 
classes  would  on  a  rotating 
basis  each  provide  two  type- 
writers for  a  total  of  seven 
typewriters.  If  the  needs  were 
addressed  on  a  regular  basis 
by  these  organizations,  then 
we  would  have  at  least  the 
seven  typewriters  that  we  now 
have  and  would  have  them  in 
good  operating  condition. 

Sincerely, 

Mr.  Richard  Reiner 

General  Manager

4]  Some  students  wish  to 
retire  early,  and  are  not  able 
to  attend  the  early  morning 
worship:  therefore,  they  are 
not  able  to  retire  until  10  p.  m. 

5]  Having  to  attend  worship 
at  9:30  or  10  p.  m.  interrupts 
those  who  wish  to  Jtudy, 
causing  a  lack  of  continuity, 
making  it  harder  to  start 
studying  again. 

6]  Tuesday  evening  hall 
worships  are  at  10  p.m.  only, 
thus  providing  even  less  alter- 

The  following  motion  was 
made  and  unanimously  ac- 
cepted:     "That  the  Student 

mend  [to  you,  through  this

dule be  changed  from  9:30/10 
p.m.  to  7/10  p.m.  while 
keeping  the  present  morning 
worship.  Copies  of  this  letter 
were  also  to  be  sent  to  Dean 
Campbell  and  to  The  Southern 
Accent. 

This  action  was  taken  also 
as  a  result  of  more  than  200 
signatures  that  were  gathered 


and  presented  to  the  Senate  at  consuming  job,    and   we   re-

Lieutenant  Learns  of  Fear^  Love  and  War 


e  war  clouds  were  amas- 
on  the  horizon.  Three 
young,  lieutenant  friends,  be- 
longing to  a  British  regiment, 
watched  the  developments 
pensively.  One  of  the  three 
seized  with  the  sickening 
fear  that  the  test  of  battle 
would  prove  him  a  coward. 
This  fear  became  so  dominant 
that  he  finally  sought  to  have 
himself  released  from  the 
army.  His  father,  who  was 
high  in  political  circles,  suc- 
ceeded in  the  task. 

Leaving  the  army,  the  ex- 
lieutenant  went  to  Ireland 
where  he  soon  became  en- 
_  d  to  a  charming  and 
spirited  girl.    One  day,  as  the 

vere  talking,  the  postman 
delivered  a     small,     neatly- 

ped'  package.  Upon 
opening  it  there  floated  out 
3  tiny,  white  feathers.  The 
girl  blurted  out  a  startled 
laugh  and  then  asked  for  an 
explanation.  Honestly,  he 
explained  that  they  were  sent 
by  his  two  friends  in  token  of 
his  cowardice.  The  laughter 
vanished,  the  giri  reached  to 
her  hat,    broke  oif  a  small.

who 


white  spray,  and  added  a- 
nother  feather  to  the  collec- 
tion. She  then  turned  and 
walked  away  without  a  word. 
The  young  man  stood  alone 
under  the  terrible  weight  of 
his  shame.  Then,  he  squared 
his  jaw,  picked  up  the  three 
white  feathers,  put  them  in 
the  box,  wrapped  the  package, 
slipped  it  into  his  pocket,  and 
hurried  back  to  England 
where  he  joined  the  army 
under  an  assumed  name. 

A  few  weeks  later  he  was 
assigned,  by  the  chances  of 
war,  to  his  old  regiment.  After 
a  hard-fought  battle,  one  of 
his  lieutenant  friends  didn't 
return.  The  young  man 
secured  permission  to  go  into 
the  danger  of  no  man's  land 
after  him.  Finding  his  friend, 
he  drug  him  to  the  safety  of  a 


trench.  The  wounded  lieuten- 
ant saw  him  and  spoke,  "Tom, 
I  knew  you  would  come  back.  I 
knew  you  weren't  a  coward," 
Tom  fumbled  in  his  pocket  and 
placed  one  white  feather  in  his 
friend's  hand,  and  he  clutched 
it  tight  in  the  chill  of  death. 

Days  passed,  and  in  a 
charge  the  young  man  was 
wounded.  Regaining  con- 
sciousness, he  found  himself  a 
foxhole  with  another  wounded 
man.  He  lifted  his  canteen  to 
his  companion's  dry  lips  and 
let  him  drain  the  last  drops. 
Then,  he  recognized  the  man 
as  his  other  lieutenant  friend. 
As  consciousness  again  slip- 
ped away,  he  pressed  a  white 
feather  into  his  hand. 

With  his  painful  wounds  he 
was  sent  home.  One  day  when 


greeted  him  was  a  beautiful 
Irish  girl  who  wore  the  garb  of 
a  Red  Cross  nurse.  And  as  he 
passed  her  he  handed  her  a 
little  box  stained  with  the  mud 
and  blood  of  trenches.  When 
she  reached  the  secrecy  of  her 


room  that  night  and  opened  it, 
she  found  in  it  one  white 
feather,  and  she  knew  that  the 
quitter  had  come  back  and  the 
coward  had  become  a  hero. 

With  the  young  lieutenant 
and  the  biblical  John  Mark, 
the  cowardly  comers  of  our 
lives  can  be  transformed  into  a 
heroic  haven  for  Jesus  Christ.

Ceremonies  Announced  for  National  Stairs  Day 


Not  many  people  are  aware, 
but  next  Tuesday.  October  23 
s  designated  "National  Stairs 
)ay."  It  will  be  a  day  for  the 
downtrodden  stairs  across 
America  to  stand-up  and  say 
"Hey,  get  off  my  back," 

Since  SMC  is  world  famous 
for  its  unique  stairs  on  cam- 
pus, the  College  is  planning  a 
full  day  of  activities  to  honor 
stairs.  The  Administration 
has  put  out  a  contract;  I  mean, 
they  are  looking  for  the  engin- 
T  who  designed  and  built  the 


stairs  to  be  the  guest  of  honor 
for  the  day. 

The  ceremonies  for  the  day 
will  include  the  grand  opening 
of  a  Halfway  Station  on  Jac- 
cob's  Ladder.  The  purpose  of 
this  station  will  be  to  provide  a 
place  for  students  to  rest  on 
their  way  to  classes  and  also  to 
administer  first-aid  for  anyone 
needing  it.

Besides  these  two  new  aids 
in  helping  the  student  get  to 
class  safer  and  quicker,  the 
steps  directly  in  front  of  Lynn 
Wood  Hall  will  be  removed. 
This  will  assist  the  student, 
because  now  they  will  not 
have  to  climb  those  stairs  to 
get  to  their  class. 

For  the  student  interested 


in  participatmg  m  a  sportmg 
event  on  "National  Stairs 
Day,"  the  religion  department 
will  be  sponsoring  "Penance 
Races"  up  Jacob's  and  Ra- 
chael's  Ladders.  The  races 
will  consist  of  climbing  the 
steps  on  your  knees.  The 
winners  will  be  exempt  from 
chapels  for  a  week. 

To  top  off  this  day  of  fun 
and  excitement,  a  banquet 
honoring  our  unknown  engin- 
eer (who  we  have  just  learned 
is  living  in  Argentina)  will  be 
held.  The  banquet  will  feature 
a  roast  (I  mean  a  literal  roast) 
of  our  engineer.      After  the 


roast,  plans  for  the  stairs  of 
the  Fine  Arts  Complex  will  be 
unveiled. 

The  stairs  were  designed  by 
a  specially  hired  contractor, 

construction.  The  plans  reveal 
the  stairs  to  be  precisely 
planned  to  be  just  slightly  out 
of  proportion  with  the  average 
human  stride  to  make  it  very 
firustrating  to  walk  up  them. 

It  is .  hoped  that  all  the 
faculty  and  students  of  SMC 
will  take  part  in  one  of  the 
many  events  planned  for  the 
day  that  will  honor  the  stairs 
and  steps  across  this  great 
campus  of  ours.

Students  Get  Involved  in  Rebuilding  Home 


DTeni  Prins 

The  seventies  has  often 
been  called  the  Age  of  Apa- 
thy, the  "I  don't  want  to  get 
involved"  era.  But  recently  a 
small  group  of  SMC  students, 
armed  with  a  few  tools,  some 
construction  materials  and  a 
lot  of  determination,  set  out  to 
prove  that  not  everybody  is 
"looking  out  for  #1." 

When  Isaac  Brunson,  a 
fi'eshman  biology  major,  left 


fered  to  provide  free  food  and 
lodging  for  the  construction 
group. 

The  large  volunteer  group 
was  narrowed  down  to  16  men 
and  6  women  who  could 
devote  time  away  from  their 
studies  and  who  had  construc- 
tion skills.  The  group  con- 
tained an  assortment  of  brick- 
layers, carpenters,  electri- 
cians,   roofers,    painters   and 


and  part  of  another,  using  the 
donated  $4500  to  buy  con- 
struction materials,  the  stu- 
dents and  two  faculty  mem- 
bers rebuilt  the  burned  section 
and  added  another  450  square 
feet.  They  also  put  in  new  roof 
superstructure,  reroofed  the 
house,  added  windows,  pan- 
eled half  the  area,  cleaned  up, 
and  repainted  the  entire  house 
inside    and    out.        A     local

SMC  in  September  to  help  his 
family  after  their  home  was 
badly  damaged  by  fire,  he 
never  expected  a  group  of  his 
fellow  students  to  later  band 
together  and  to  lend  a  hand  in 
rebuilding  the  ID-room  frame 
house  that  was  home  for  21 

The  project  to  rebuild  the 
Brunson  home  began  when 
Everett  Schlisner,  Dean  of 
Men,  went  to  Sumter,  South 
Carolina,  to  visit  with  the 
family  and  survey  the  dam- 
age. When  Schlisner  returned 
to  SMC,  he  held  worships  in 
both  dorms  to  ask  for  dona- 
tions for  the  Brunson  family 
and  volunteers  to  rebuild  the 

"The  response  on  campus 
was  fantastic, ' '  Schlisner 
said.  "I  was  overwhelmed  by 
how  the  students  dug  deep 
into  their  pockets  to  help  the 
Bransons. ' '  Approximately 
$3500  was  raised  between  the 
students  and  faculty.  And  at 
least  90  men  and  50  women 
volunteered  to  give  their  time. 
Another  $1000  was  donated  by 
the  South  Atlantic  Conference 
and  Nosoca  Pines  Ranch  of- 


others  who  bad  worked  with 

during  the  summer  or  were 
studying  industrial  arts. 

Carpeting,  mattresses  and 
dressers  were  some  of  the 
items    the    students    brought 


fast.  "1  believe  we 
did  an  awful  lot  with 
the  money  we  had," 
Schlisner  remarked. 
"And  our  students 
did     only     first-class 

The  job  had  pre- 
viously been  esti- 
mated at  S7000,  but 

mately  800  man-hours 
were  donated,  it  was 
accomplished  for  con- 
siderably less.  There 
is  still  S500  needed  to 
pay  a  bill  for  construction 
materials.  If  anyone  would 
still  like  to  help  with  this 
project,  please  contact  Dean 
Schlisner. 

According  to  Dennis  Dimi- 
nicb.  the  student  constraction 


lot. 

Isaac  Brunson,  who  is  the 
oldest  brother  and  acts  as  the 
family  father-figure,  is  staying 
at  home  to  help  re-establish 
the  family  routine,  especially 
for  his  younger  brother  and 
sister.  But  he  plans  to  return 
to  SMC  second  semester  to 
continue  his  education.  "lam 
really  overwhelmed,"  Isaac 
said,  "that  these  people  would 
travel  so  far  to  help  total 
strangers.  I  never  thought 
that  people  could  care  that 
much.    But  they  proved  their 


love  for  theirneighbors.  They 
have  set  an  example  to  the 
members  of  my  community  I 
and  church.  Someday  I  hope  ; 
to  be  in  the  position  to  help  I 
people  like  they've  helped  my  ! 
family  and  me."  I 

"I  had  no  idea  that  my  | 
appeal  for  help  would  turn  into  i 
a  project  of  this  magnitude," 
Schlisner  said,  "but  the  true 
Christian  spirit  of  love  for  our 
fellow  man  was  clearly  mani- 
fested by  the  students  here  at 
SMC." 

At  SMC,  love  for  one  an- 
'  ^her  really  isn't  a  scarce  com- 
modity. And  as  Isaac  Brunson 
said,  "I'm  not  glad  about  the 
fire,  but  something  great  has 
come  out  of  it!"

Hawaiian  Flagball 
Kicks  Off  New  Season 


Days  are  getting  shorter, 
nights  dearer  and  crisper.  The 
leaves  are  beginning  to  turn, 
and  flagball  season  is  getting 
underway.  This  year  there  are 
Men's  Leagues  and  one 
Women's  League,  with  a  total 
of  218  participants  on  the  19 
s.  Already  the  beginning 
fgames  of  the  season  are  being 
played,  and  the  teams  are  out 
the  field  practicing  their 
ineuvers  (and  looking  very, 
very  good). 


Flagball  is  a  fast,  exciting 
game  that  requires  close 
teamwork  for  success.  If  the 
term -"Hawaiian  Flagball"  e- 
vokes  in  your  mind  an  image 
of  grass-skirted  savages  leap- 
ing around  waving  flags — 
well,  you  ought  to  come  and 
see  for  yourself  what  the  game 
is  really  all  about. 

Games  will  be  played  at 
5:30  and  7:30  p.m.,  Monday 
through  Thursday.

Campus  Being  Renovated 


QMelissa  Smith 

Southern  Missionary  Col- 
lege has  looked  like  an  ex- 
cavation site  lately  but  for  very 

Serious  erosion  along  the 
creek  has  been  killing  trees 
and  has  caused  a  tractor 
lawnmower  to  tumble  into  the 
creek  because  of  a  cave-in. 


The 


ndirio: 


have  made  it  necessary 
fill-in  the  creek  from  the 
bridge  by  the  tennis  courts  to 
the  bridge  at  the  VM.  Most  of 
the  labor  is  being  done  by 
students  as  part  of  their  class. 
The  masonry  class  is  laying 
the  blocks,  the  engineering 
department  is  pouring  the 
footing  and  the  top  concrete, 
and  the  grounds  department 
will  be  putting  down  top  soil 
and  grass. 

Another  trouble  spot  in  that 
area  is  the  sidewalk  running 
parallel  with  the  creek  across 
from  the  refmished  courts. 
Because  the  sidewalk  is  lower 
than  the  grass,  it  collects 
Water  easily  and  drains  very 
slowly.  -'We  are  killing  the 
Bermuda  grass,  which  would 
nave  turned  brown  shortly 
anyway,  and  lowering  the 
soil,"  sard  Grounds  Director

Opinions 


editorial 


The  saying  "First  come,  first  serve,"  seems  to  be  going  out 
of  style  at  SMC,  or  so  it  seems  whenever  there  is  chapel.  What  1 
am  referring  to  is  the  way  people  are  "ushered"  out  after  the 
meeting — there  is  a  mad  rush  for  the  door.  Instead  of  waiting  in 
turn  for  their  aisle  to  be  dismissed,  everyone  jumps  up  at  once 
and  swarms  the  "card-catcher,"  as  if  aU  the  rows  were  being 
dismissed  together. 

Those  who  come  first  usually  choose  a  seat  near  the  front  so 
they  can  leave  first  and  make  it  to  dinner  before  the  crowds 
gather  at  the  cafeteria  front  door.  But  now  everyone  seems  to 
think  that  they  should  be  ushered  out  first,  even  if  they  came 
last. 

The  "card-catchers"  have  been  instructed  to  withhold  the 
chapel  cards  of  those  trying  to  leave  before  being  dismissed,  but 


Administration  Calls  for  Energy  Savings 


this  is  impossible  when  everyone  jumps  up  and  surrounds  the 
confused  "catcher"  throwing  the  cards  toward  him  from  all 
directions. 

I  found  this  chaos  particularly  embarrassing  the  Thursday 
f  aul  Anderson  spoke  for  the  CABL  chapel.  Anderson  has  strict 
rules  of  conduct  for  the  boys  who  live  in  his  youth  homes.  For- 
tunately he  left  the  platform  before  the  SMC  students  were 
dismissed,  which  saved  him  from  being  appalled  by  the 
immaturity  of  supposedly  sophisticated  college  students. 

This  melee  doesn't  happen  only  in  chapel;  it  also  takes  place 
in  church.  The  amazing  thing  is  that  even  a  few  of  the  faculty 
members  are  guilty  of  rushing  out  of  church  before  they  are 
dismissed. 

It  seems  that  a  good  solution  for  the  chapel  part  of  the 
problem  would  be  for  the  Administration  to  move  the  chapels 
back  to  nine  o'clock  next  year.  However,  in  the  meantime,  let's 
act  like  college  students.  This  rudeness  is  embanassing  and 
has  to  go! 


Dear  Editor: 

Southern  Missionary  Col- 
lege is  facing  a  real  challenge 
regarding  energy  movement 
on  our  campus. 

You  are  aware  that  the 
Federal  Government  is  re- 
quiring that  we  control  our 
heating  and  cooling  system  by 
maintaining  a  cooling  mini- 
mum of  78  degrees  and  a 
heating  maximum  of  65  de- 
grees. This  involves  all  of  us 
working  together  to  control 
this  runaway  cost.  At  the 
present  time,  residence  halls 
are  exempted  ft-om  this  re- 
striction; but  if  we  do  not  hold 
down  both  usage  and  cost,  the 
situation  could  get  out  of  hand 
and  all  buildings  could  pos- 
sibly come  under  this 
regulation  at  some  later  date. 

During  the  year  1978-79, 
through  the  concerted  efforts 
of  staff  and  students,  we  were 
able  to  reduce  our  usage  of 
electricity  by  833,671  kilowatt 
hours  over  the  previous  year. 
Nevertheless,  our  cost  in- 
creased by  $70,982.  With 
prices  continually  increasing 
as  they  are  today,  you  can  see 
that  any  saving  in  usage  is 


My  appeal  to  you  students 
at  this  time  is  to  help  us 
reduce  our  electrical  usage 
wherever  and  whenever  you 
can.  By  doing  this,  you  have 
an  opportunity  to  hold  tuition 
costs  down  at  SMC.  1  know  we 
can  count  on  you  to  rally 
behind  us  in 


program  not  only  for  our 
school,  but  hopefully  for  the 
country  itself.  You  have  heard 
this  over  and  over  again,  I 
know,  but  I  urge  you  to 
seriously  consider  our  situa- 
tion and  to  work  with  us  in 
every  way  possible. 

Thank  you  so  much,

Girl  Applauds  Thatcher  Deans 


Dear  Editor: 

1  would  like  to  let  the  deans 
of  Thatcher  know  that  some 
girls  do  notice  and  appreciate 
their  effort  in  making  things 
las  comfortable  as  possible. 

I  have  noticed  how  they 
have  tried  to  make  a  conven- 
ient worship  time  for  as  many 
girls  as  possible,  even  at  an 
inconvenience  to  them.  The 
morning  worships  have  been  a 
special  help  to  me  in  my 
schedule. 

I  especially  want  them  to 
know  that  I  have  noticed  their 
effort  to  make  interesting  and

Dear  Editor: 

I  just  received  the  Sept.  20 
edition  of  The  Southern 
Accent.  I  really  enjoyed 
reading  it  as  I  am  now 
attending  Loma  Linda  Uni- 
versity, and  I  miss  SMC  a 
great  deai. 

One  of  the  things  I  miss  the 
most  is  the  fellowship  and  fun 
of  the  intramural  sports  pro- 
gram we  had.  But  as  1  turned 
to  the  last  page  of  the  paper,  I 
discovered  that  the  program 
has  apparently  taken  a  turn  for 
the  worse. 


wish  to  blame  anyone.  I  only 
wish  that  the  P.E.  department 
would  try  to  look  at  the 
intramural  program  as  a  very 
important  part  of  the  students' 
life  on  campus,  not  just  an- 
other class  or  service 
rendered. 

I  hope  the  differences  can 
be  solved  (I  hope  they  have 
been  by  now),  for  when  you 
leave  SMC,  memories  are 
about  all  you  have  time  for. 
Shouldn't  they  be  good  ones?

What  problems  do  you  most  fre- 
quently encounter  with  the  CoUegedale 
telephone  system? 

Randy  Weldemere,  freshman,  construction  technology,  Madison,  Tenn,;  I  wish 
I  could  make  long-distance  phone  calls  from  my  room.     The  present  system 


Thursday,  October  25,  1979  THE  SOUTHERN  ACCENT  -  3 


doesn't  handle  all  the  calls. 

David  Ferris,  senior,  biology,  Windsor,  Vt.:  On  Friday  and  Saturday  nights  it's 
virtually  impossible  to  get  out  unless  you  leave  the  phone  off  the  hook  and  dial  a 
number  real  quick  once  you  get  a  line. 

David  Creamer,  junior,  business  management.  South  Lancaster,  Mass.:  Friday 
and  Saturday  nights  the  system  is  so  clogged  that  people  calling  me  long 
distance  from  Massachusetts  don't  get  through  until  around  1  a.m. 

Ken  Neet,  junior,  psychology,  Pittsburgh,  Kan.:  Sometimes  when  you  dial  9  or 
9-7  to  get  out  to  Chattanooga,  it  messes  up.  You  hang  up  to  try  again  and  it  calls 
you  back.  Another  thing — long  distance  connections  never  seem  to  be  any  good. 

Darlene  Hallock,  junior,  behavioral  science,  Harrison,  Ark.:  I've  been  talking 
long  distance  before  and  have  gotten  cut  off.  Other  times  the  lines  get  crossed 
somehow  and  I  can  hear  other  people  talking  on  the  phone  or  else  they  hear  me. 

Janiel  Sorenson,  freshman,  nursing,  CoUegedale,  Tenn.:  I'm  a  villager  and  it 
seems  like  whenever  I  try  to  call  the  dorms,  the  lines  are  busy.  Sometimes  it's 
really  hard  to  get  through,  I'll  get  a  busy  signal  for  hours  and  then  later  discover 
that  nobody  was  on  the  phone.

Teacher  Reduced  to  Tears  by  Dumb  Questions 


If  you  have  ever  sat  through 
a  class  where  the  teacher  has 
just  finished  explaining  what 
will  be  required  for  a  book 
report  or  a  term  paper,  you 
know  the  agony  of  sitting 
through  the  dumb  questions 
that  follow. 

The  other  day  I  was  in  a 
class  where  this  happened.  I 
don't  want  to  embarrass  the 
people  involved,  so  let's  just 
say  it  took  place  in  Dr. 
Benjamin  McArthur's  ten 
o'clock  section  of  American 
History.  What  follows  is  an 
excerpt  of  the  questions 
asked,  and  how  the  professor 
probably  would  have  liked  tc

"The  paper  should  be  typed

"No.  A  sloppy  handwritten

"Excuse  me,  but  1  wasn't

go  over  the  report  assignment 
again,"  asked  a  girl  busily 
finishing  her  TJ  homework. 

"No." 

"Dr.  McArthur,  is  punctua-

Dr.  McArthur  began  to  cry. 
"If  we  use  correct  spelling 
will  we  be  given  extra  credit?" 
continued. 
'No.     But  I'll  give  you  a

you  do." 

"Would  it  be  a  good  idea  to 
turn  this  paper  in  on  time?" 
asked  a  student  who  had 
walked  in  late  and  had  no  idea

rang  above  the  clamor.

GC  Council   Votes  on  Publishing,   Gambling,  Marriage 


It  was  recommended  by  a 
vote  of  170  to  70  to  counsel  the 
Southern  Publishing  Associa- 
tion (SPA)  in  Nashville,  Tenn., 
to  consider  ceasing  its  opera- 
tions. This  decision  was  made 
in  the  Annual  Council  meeting 
held  at  the  General  Confer- 
ence the  past  two  weeks. 

Modem  efficient  and  high- 
speed equipment  have  been 
installed  at  two  of  the  church's 
publishing  houses  and  the 
present  production  capacity 
far  exceeds  the  demand  for 
the  church's  literature.  By 
closing  the  smallest  publish- 
ing house.  Southern  Publish- 
ingAssociation,  it  would  avoid 
installation  of  further  high- 
speed equipment  that  would 


require 

money 


of 


"If  the  Southern  Publishing 
Association  constituency  com- 
plies with  this  recommenda- 
tion, their  work  load,  certain 
key  personnel,  and  the  terri- 
tory it  serves  would  be  as- 
sumed by  the  Review  and 
Herald  Publishing  Association 
located  in  Washington. 
D.C.,"  W.  Duncan  Eva,  vice- 
president  and  chairman  of 
SPA'S  board  said.  This  would 
leave  only  two  large  publish- 
ing houses  in  the  States — the 
Review  and  Herald  for  the 
east  coast  and  the  Pacific 
Press  Association  in  Mountain 
View,    Calif.,    for    the    west 


The  delegates  also  took  a 
strong  position  against  all 
games  of  chance  and  insisted 
that  gambling  is  a  "no-no." 
They  have  spelled  out  the 
church's  reasons  why  mem- 
bers should  not  take  part  in 
state  lotteries,  raffles,  chain 
letters,  bingo  games  and  all 
contests  involving  elements  of 
chance. 

"The  pleasure  obtained 
from  winning  is  accompanied 
by  pain  and  deprivation  on 
the  part  of  those  who  lose, 
which  is  contrary  to  high 
Christian  standards."  G. 
Ralph  Thompson,  vice-presi- 
dent and  committee  chairman 
of  this  item  said. 

Tlie  basic  motive  in  gam- 
bling is  to  acquire  resources 
without  labor  and  without 
paying  for  value  received. 
The  church  feels  to  indulge  in 
this  practice  generates  selfish- 
ness which  is  the  wrong  spirit 
for  the  follower  of  Christ. 

This  position  is  not  to  be 
confused  with  the  prudent 
management  of  property  such 
as  paying  for  fire  or  accident 
insurance.  Insurance  does  not 
create  a  risk.  The  risk  of  loss 
is  already  there  with  or  with- 
out the  insurance. 

An  addition  was  made  in  the 
list  of  fundamental  beliefs  as 
found  in  the  Church  Manual 
concerning  the  nature  of  man. 
This  list  of  27  doctrinal  items 


with  supporting  Bible  texts 
includes  the  basic  beliefs  of 
most  protestant  churches.  Ex- 
ceptions include  worshipping 
on  Saturday,  what  happens  at 
death,  the  second  coming  of 
Christ,  baptism,  and  the 
Lord's  Supper. 

Information  concerning 

marriage  and  the  family  has 
also  been  added  to  the  doctri- 
nal instruction  for  baptismal 
candidates  in  that  section  of 
the  Church  Manual.  It 
stresses  the  life-long  commit- 
ment to  fidelity  and  moral 
purity,  and  the  use  of  the 
family  unit,  where  true  love 
and  respect  exists,  plus  the 
influence  of  the  church  and  its 
schools  for  the  accomplish- 
ment of  these  goals. 

The  reorganization  of  Afri- 
can affairs  will  bring  the 
French-speaking  members 
there  into  a  closer  working 
relationship.  Relocating  of  the 
three    regional    offices    that 


the  church's  work  on 
ill  be  taken  up 
later  by  the  respective  com- 
mittees involved. 

Worldwide  membership  in 
the  Adventist  church  num- 
bered 3.201.592  at  the  end  of 
June  this  year.  "The 
churches  in  South  America, 
Inter  America,  and  North 
America  house  50%  of  this 
total,"  said  F.  Donald  Yost, 
director  of  Archives  and  Sta- 

Income  wise,  the  members 
in  North  America  give  three- 
fifths  of  the  total  funds  that 
flow  into  the  church.  This 
represents  a  per  capita  giving 
of  S662.86. 

The  332  delegates  repre- 
senting administration  from 
the  States  and  overseas  have 
been  in  session  since  October 
9.  Their  work  will  come  up  for 
ratification  at  General  Confer- 
ence scheduled  for  Dallas. 
Texas,  in  April  1980.

Mobley  Talks  About  Harvest  Experiences 

aierri  Prins  ' 


DTeni  Prins 
"I  think  any  student  who  has 
been  in  college  a  year  or  two 
ought  to  take  a  year  off  and  do 
something  constructive,"  says 
Tony  Mobley,  a  sophomore 
music  major  here  at  SMC. 
"Taking  time  out  for  yourself 
will  make  you  grow.  And 
when  you  come  back  to  college 
your  priorities  and  goals  will 
be  different." 

Tony's  advice  comes  from 
experience  because  last  year 
he  didn't  go  to  college  but 
toured  all  over  the  US  and 
Canada  playing  the  piano  and 
singing  with  the  Lincoln, 
Neb.,  based  gospel-singing 
and  witnessing  group.  Har- 
vest Celebration. 

As  Tony  and  I  chatted 
outside  Jones  Hall  amidst  the 
vivid  autumn  colors,  I  asked 
why  he  decided  to'join  Harvest 
Celebration.  An  academy 
friendship  and  continued  con- 
tact with  group  director,  Ver- 
non Starette,  placed  the  idea 
in  his  head.  But  it  took  much 
sincere  prayer  and  a  con- 
viction that  this  was  what  God 
wanted  to  finalize  Tony's 
decision. 

Harvest  Celebration  is  com- 
prised of  9  men  and  4  women 
who  travel  constantly  in  a  bus. 


churches  (both  SDA  and  non- 
SDA),  and  anywhere  else  they 
can  share  the  love  of  Jesus. 

Of  all  the  places  that  they 
visited,  Tony  said  he  enjoyed 
singing  at  non-Adventist 
churches  the  best.  "The  non- 
SDA  churches  seemed  to  have 
more  receptive,  enthusiastic 
Christians.  They  were  inter- 
ested in  the  group  as  people 
and  after  we  sang  they  would 
share  their  love  for  Christ  and 
excitement  about  His  soon 
coming  with  us!  Most  of  the 
large  non-Adventist  churches 
had    a   small    church    atmos- 


phere. 1  feel  like  I  could  go 
back  to  visit  and  find  many 
good  friends  at  many 
churches," 

"Visiting  other  churches," 
Tony  said,  "made  me  realize 
that   soon    all    these    denom- 

broken  down  and  we'll  be  able 
to  see  each  other  in  heaven 
just  as  fellow  Christians." 

I  asked  Tony  if  there  was 
ever  any  problems  or  arguing 
between  the  group  members. 
At  first  all  he  could  do  was 
throw  back  his  head  and 
laugh.    "Weil."  he  said,  still 


work  better  with  a  group.  I 
can  function  as  part  of  a  unit." 
The  group  spent  quite  a  bit 
of  time  in  Canada  and 
northern  California,  which 
were  Tony's  favorite  places  on 
the  tour.  He  said  he  liked 
these  areas  because  they  had 
beautiful  country  and  were 
less  densely  populated  than 
other  places  they  toured.  In 
comment  about  the  Canadian 
people,  Tony  felt  they  were 
generally  more  cultured  than 
Americans  and  dress  very 
neatly.  He  also  thought  they 
public-spirited  and 


grinnmg,  "we  were  just  like  a 
big  family  of  brothers  and 
sisters — and  as  you  know, 
brothers  and  sisters  do  fight 
once  in  a  while.  But  seriously, 
when  you  travel  with  a  group 
constantly  you  can't  avoid 
problems.  At  school  if  you 
don't  like  someone,  vou  can 
avoid    them.      You    can't    do 


that  c 


i  bus. 


'We  had  group  therapy 
often.  This  gave 
a  chance  to  air  any 
differences  and  express  their 
real  feelings.  These 
were  so  good — and  at  first, 
difficult — for  me.     Now  I  i 


took  more  pride  in  their 
country.  But  without  a  doubt, 
he  likes  the  United  States  best 
and  said,  "We  have  a  great 
country;  we  shouldn't  take  it 
for  granted." 

Harvest  Celebration  stayed 
in  northern  California  for  six 
weeks  as  part  of  a  special 
program  involving  cooperation 
between  church  members  and 
the  group  to  reach  non- 
Adventist  community  mem- 
bers. The  gospel  singing  of 
the  group  was  the  method  to 
attract  people  to  come  to 
church,  then  the  church  mem- 
bers followed  up  this  concert 
with  opportunities  for  people 
to  sign  up  for  stop  smoking 
clinics  and  Bible  studies.  This 
gave  the  church  members  a 
chance  to  get  to  know  their 
neighbors. 

Also,  the  group  spent  a  lot 
of  time  with  evangelistic 
meetings.  At  these  meetings 
they  would  sing  at  night  and 
during  the  day  visit  people 
and  invite  them  to  attend  the 
meetings. 

Singing  isn't  all  the  group 
ever    did,     though,    during 


meetings  where  thev  staved  in 
one  place  .awhile.  They 
usually  challenged  the  local 
church  schools  to  tournaments 
in  volleyball,  baseball,  and 
basketball. 

Special  time  with  God  in 
worship  was  essential  to  their 
performances.  "Before  every 
performance  we  would  prac- 
tice 45  minutes  and  have  a  45 
minute  worship,  ff  we  missed 
worship,  the  concert  didn't 
seem  quite  the  same,"  Tony 
remarked. 

One  of  the  best  benefits  of 
his  year  with  Harvest  Cele- 
bration, Tony  said,  was  the 
time  he  had  for  Bible  study. 
Every  morning  on  the  bus  the 
group  had  a  quiet  hour  just  for 
Bible  study.  Also,  he  had 
plenty  of  time  for  other 
reading  while  they  were 
traveling. 

Tony's  advice  to  his  fellow 
students  is  to  start  now  to 
make  a  commitment  for 
Christ.  "After  seeing  the 
conflict  going  on  in  the  world 
right  now,  I  know  Jesus  is 
coming  soon.  I  saw  the 
overflow  of  new  members  in 
many  churches  I  visited.  The 
time  we've  been  told  about 
of  people  flocking  to  the 
churches  is  already  here.  We 
need  to  make  a  commitment 
NOW," 

Heaven  holds  a  special  e.i- 
citement  for  Tony  now  be- 
cause he'll  get  to  see  those 
people  that  his  year  in  Harvest 


Himself  responsible  for  our 
success.  To  me  the  name 
Harvest     Celebration     repre- 


the 


elebr: 


heaven  after  Christ's  harvest. 
It's  going  to  be  a  BIG  cele- 
bration and  1  can't  waitl" 

Tony's  plans  for  the  future 
are  to  go  to  graduate  school 
after  SMC  and  continue 
working  hard  to  develop  his 
own  unique  musical  style. 
Tony  said,  "I  believe  the  Lord 
expects  us  to  be  creative.  He 
gives  us  the  ability  and  talent 
to  create.  And  when  we  are 
creative,  we  can  experience 
something  of  God.  because  He 
is  the  Creator." 

Before  1  left  I  asked  Tony  if 
he  would  recommend  his  ex- 
perience to  everyone.  He  said 
that  the  constant  traveling  and 

weren't  for  everyone — "God 
has  to  choose  you  and  lead  you 
to  where  he  wants  you.  I  was 
really  homesick  the  first 
month;  it  was  difficult.  But  by 
the  second  month  the  bus  was 
home,  and  I  kept  in  touch  with 
my  family  and  friends  by  mail, 
I  believe  this  experience  was  a 
stepping-stone  in  God's  plan 
for  my  life,  and  I  would  gladly 
repeat  it  if  God  told  me  to." 
As  Tony  was  walking  down 
the  sidewalk  to  continue  his 
busy  day  of  studies  and  prac- 
tice, he  turned  around  and  left

Pilgrim  Progresses  Toward  College  Dale 

^— ^  ^^■^^^■^^^^^^'       ]  iu^t  ,„ithnni  thp  Aid  of  a      returning  t 


[All  due   apologies   to  John 
Bunyan  and  his  Pilgrim 's  Pro- 


"As  I  walked  through  the 
wilderness  of  this  world  1 
lighted  on  a  certain  place 
where  was  a  den,  and  laid  me 
down  in  that  place  to  sleep; 
and,  as  I  slept,  I  dreamed  a 
dream."  And  behold,  in  my 
dream,  I  saw  one  seeldng  with 
all  his  might  to  climb  out  of  a 
deep  ravine  into  which  he  had 
fallen.  The  name  of  it  was  the 
Valley  of  Death  (Rom.  6:23). 
As  he  struggled  to  scale  the 
rugged  walls,  I  saw  one 
named  Pastor,  standing  at  the 
top  of  this  dreaded  canyon. 
Presently,  he  let  down  a  thick 
rope  and  bid  Seeker  (for  that 
was  his  name)  to  grab  the  rope 


John  mcvay 


and  cling  to  it.  After  a  great 
struggle  on  the  part  of  both, 
Seeker  reached  the  top.  I  then 
heard  Pastor  exhort  him  in  a 
firm  and  fearful  voice  that,  if 
he  would  find  that  for  which 
he  sought,  he  must  go  to  a 
place  called  College  Dale. 
Having  gained  the  true  direc- 
tion, Seeker  began  his  jour- 
ney. 

After  many  days  and  un 
numbered  hardships  (not  the 
least  of  which  was  the  trek 


through  the  Swamp  of  No- 
Money)  Seeker  beheld  a  sign- 
post declaring  that  this  was 
the  outer  edge  of  College 
Dale.  With  joy  in  his  heart 
and  an  added  spring  in  his 
step,  Seeker  continued  his 
journey. 

One  feature  I  have  not 
heretofore  mentioned  was  the 
great  load  Seeker  carried. 
Never  have  I  seen  a  backpack- 
er sally  forth  with  such  a  cargo 
as  rested  on  Seeker's  back, 


Student  Financial  Statements  Explained 


and  that  without  the  aid  of  a 
frame  or  the  comfort  of  even 
one  padded  strap. 

In  the  distance  Seeker  es- 
pied another  traveler  and 
quickened  his  stride  to  catch 
up  with  him,  but  alas,  the 
heavy  burden  held  him  back. 
So,  Seeker  shouted  with  great 
vigor,  "Friend,  waiti  I  long 
to  travel  with  you."  The 
young  man  ahead  slowed  his 
pace  and  soon  he  and  Seeker 
walked  side-by-side;  where- 
upon, they  fell  into  conversa- 

Seeker:  My  name  is  Seeker 

and  I  am  come  from  the  Valley 

of  Death  seeking,  at  the  place 

called   College   Dale,    how    I 

might  properly  continue   my 

journey  and  rid  myself  of  this 

great  burden. 

Parti' er  [pronounced  partee 

Ir]:  My  name  is  Parti'er,  and 

am  from  Funtown.      I  am 


returning  to  College  Dale  after 
a  weekend  at  home. 

Seeker:  What  of  this  place 
called  College  Dale? 

Parti'er:  It's  alrightl  There 
are  lots  of  really  neat  people, 
and  as  long  as  you  don't  take 
things  too  seriously  I  think 
you'll  find  it  a  nice  area.  Also, 
if  you  get  tired  of  it,  there's 
this  great  little  spot,  not  too 
far... 

Seeker  [interrupting]:  But, 
Parti'er,  will  I  there  find  relief 
from  this  burden? 

Parti'er:  That  does  look  a 
bit  heavyl  Say,  if  you'll 
excuse  me,  I  must  hurry 
on— I've  already  used  up  my 
late  minutes  several  times 
over,  and  I  must  get  back. 
Maybe  I'll  see  you  sometime! 
And  with  that,  Parti'er  was 
off,  and  Seeker  stumbled  on 
with  downtrodden  face.  (To 
be  continued).

that  there  is  a  method  to  the

madness. 

The  method  for  determining 
the  balance  due 
statements  has  been  modified 
this  year.  This  is  to  prevent 
the  financial  sponsor  from 
being  billed  too  low  on  the 
first  two  statements  of  the 
semester,  resulting  in  a  large 
amount  due  on  the  final 
statement.

The  change  involves  the

the  required  housing  and  ad- 
vance deposits.  The  unequal  New  Balance 
billings  in  the  past  have 
resulted  from  three  problems:       This  Month  Due 

1)    not  paying   the    required

They  held  their  second 
meeting  this  year  last  Thurs- 
day in  the  cafeteria  banquet 

At  the  meeting,  club  mem- 
;  hers  received  their  new 
uniforms.  This  year's  track 
uniforms  will  be  red  and 
white,  with  the  letters  CABL 
emblazoned  on  the  front. 

The  track  club  plans  to 
participate  in  the  Asheville, 
North  Carolina,  Spook  Run.  to 
be  held  at  9:30  p.m.  Saturday 
night.  Right  now.  transpor- 
tation is  available  for  fifteen 
persons  to  Asheville.  The  club 
may  take  a  bus  to  give  all 
members  an  opportunity  to 
attend,    if    there    is    enough 


at  6:00  every  morning,  and  at 
8:00  each  evening.  Fun  Runs 
are  planned  to  provide  an

balance  due  of  S8.19  from  the 
August  statement  and  an  ad- 
vance deposit  of  $579.23 .  The 
student  will  be  charged

deposit  up  to  the  required 
total  of  $750.00.

John   Jay  Presents   ^Winter  Magic^ 


DD.  L.  West 

Skier-photographer  John 
Jay  will  be  presenting  "Win- 
ter Magic  Around  the 
World"— a  90-niinute  Film  of 
beauty  and  spectacular  skiing 
with  a  touch  of  humor — on 
Saturday  night.  Nov.  3,  at  8 
p.m.  in  the  Physical  Education 

Come  and  watch  the  world's 
best  and  worst  skiers  preform 
on  the  beautiful  slopes  of  the 
world's  mountain  ranges  from 
the  crevassed  glaciers  of  Brit- 
ish Columbia  to  the  exotic  and 
little  known  ski  slopes  of 
Persia,  New  Zealand  and  Aus- 

Loaded  with  action  and 
humor.  "Winter  Magic  A- 
round    the    World"     literally 

kes    its    audience     on     an 


"armchair  global  trek  to  dozens 
of  fascinating,  faraway  places. 

Zermatt.  Chamonix,  Vail, 
Aspen  and  the  Bugaboo 
Mountains  are  just  some  of 
the  resorts  touched  on. 

Jean  Claude  Killy.  and 
Stein  Eriksen  are  just  two  of 
the  Olympic  champions  seen. 

John  Jay,  the  great-great- 
great-grandson  of  John  Jay, 
the  first  Chief  Justice  of  the 
United  States,  has  been  film- 
ing for  35  years  and  was 
nominated  for  an  Academy 
Award  for  one  of  his  works. 
He  has  traveled  and  filmed 
extensively  in  more  than  30 

At  St.  Moritz,  Jay  was  the 
Official  U.S.  Olympic  photo- 
grapher and  is  the  author  of 


illustrated  books  and 
nagazine  articles. 
He  has  also  produced  promo- 
tional motion  pictures  for  sev- 
eral international  airlines. 

Tickets  for  this  program  are 
now  on  sale  at  the  Student 
Center  and  will  be  at  the  door. 
■  The  cost  depends  on  the 
location  of  the  seats.  Students 
are  free  with  !D,  except  for  the 
front  middle  section  which  is 
50  cents.  All  others  pay  SI. 50, 
$2.00  and  S2.50,  again  accord- 
ing to  the  seat  sections. 

Anyone  who  has  seen  a 
John  Jay  production,  and  over 
2  million  have  so  far,  and 
heard  of  his  dry  Yankee  wit, 
will  never  willingly  miss 
another.

Senate  Conducts  Business 


Monday  night  the  SA  Sen- 
ate heard  a  report  from  the 
committee  assigned  to  inves- 
tigate the  problems  with  the 
telephone  system  on  campus. 

chairman  of  the  committee, 
said  that  more  facts  were 
needed  so  that  the  problem 
could  be  presented  to  the 
mayor  of  Collegedale. 

Senator  Ed  Keplinger  ex- 
plained that  the  Adminis- 
tration may  present  to  the 
Board  of  Trustees  the  need  of 
a  new  centrex  system.  This 
would  cost  the  College  a 
half-million  dollars  and  would 


committee's  report,  the  Sen- 
ate unanimously  voted  to 
allow  the  student  body  to  vote 
on  the  $3000  appropriation  for 
lights  on  the  tennis  courts  next 
to  the  VM.  The  College  will 
finance  $4500  of  the  cost  and 
the  SA  will  pay  the  remaining. 
The  approval  of  the  appropri- 
ation will  be  voted  in  chapel  by 
the  general  assembly  on 
Thursday,  Nov.  1. 

The  $3000  used  for  lighting 
the  tennis  courts  will  not  affect 
this  year's  SA  budget  but  will 
be  funded  with  the  money  left

additional  trunk  lines  to  the 
telephone  company  which 
would  give  better  access  to  the 
Collegedale  community  but 
not  to  Chattanooga  or  the  rest 
of  the  United  States. 

The  main  problem  with 
purchasing  a  new  system 
would  be  maintenance  and 
pinpointing  the  problems. 
Keplinger  explained  that  be- 
cause the  telephone  company 
is  small,  rates  would  be 
greatly  increased  if  more 
trunk  lines  were  laid  to  Chat- 
tanooga.

changes  that  need  to  be  made 
in  the  constitution.  Article  V, 
Section  2,  Part  C  was  recom- 
mended to  read  "The  General 
Assembly  shall  have  sole 
power  to  authorize,  by  a 
majority  vote,  all  expenditures 
over  SIOOO  not  otherwise  in- 
cluded in  the  current  budget 
for  the  SASMC."  rather  than 
"of  $1000  or  more."  It  was 
felt  by  the  committee  mem- 
bers that  the  Senate  could 
appropriate  $999.99,  but  for 
ease  of  understanding,  it 
should    be    changed    to    all

The  Student  Center  is  get- 
ting a  face  lift  this  fall.  "The 
object  of  this  project  is  to 
upgrade  and  make  more  func- 
tional the  Center  to  students," 
said  Testing  and  Counseling 
Director  K.R.  Davis. 

The  Cube  Room  stage  has 
been  sectioned  off  into  three 
interviewing  rooms  for  job 
placement  interviews,  and  the 
center  room  may  also  be  used 
as  a  small  committee  room. 

Window  shades  have  been 
hung  in  the  game  room  and 
three  new  ping-pong  table 
boards  have  been  purchased. 

The  whole  Center  is  being 
repainted  a  soft  beige  and 
plans  have  been  made  to 
refurnish  the  lounge. 

Another  renovation  will  be 
made  in  the  Student  Associa- 
tion office.  "Repapering.  re- 
painting, and  recarpeting  will 
be  the  major  changes."  said 
SA  President  Les  Mussel- 
white,  "and  if  funds  permit, 
some  new  furniture." 


2  -  THE  SOUTHERN  ACCENT  Thursday.  November  1.  1979 


Opinions 


editorial 

The  dictionary  defines  "referee"  as  "one  qualified  to  pass 
critical  judgement."  This  may  be  true  in  some  locations; 
however.  Random  House  failed  to  send  someone  down  to  get 
c  pinions  of  those  taking  part  in  the  intramural  program  at  SMC. 
C  nsistent  inconsistency  seems  to  be  this  years  motto  for  the 
UT.ps  at  the  football  games.  While  not  all  referees  are  involved, 
mcst  of  them  have  gotten  their  whistles  continuously  stuck  in 
thielr  throats. 

The}  just  don't  seem  to  be  familiar  with  the  rules,  let  alone 
il-,eir  role  in  the  game,  which  is  strange  when  they're  coming 
from  an  officiating  class. 

Referees,  its  been  noticed,  have  without  fail  turned  out  to  be 
tciolly  confused  and  confusing — changing  decisions  as  many  as 
three  times  on  ONE  call — early  whistles,  late  whistles,  no 
whistles,  penalties  that  don't  seem  to  be  anywhere  in  the  rule 
book,  and  so  on. 

It's  also  been  observed  that  most  of  these  slip-ups  occur 
during  the  women's  games. 

Do  the  referees  care  at  all  about  the  reputation  that  is 
surrounding  them?  Don't  they  want  to  do  an  adequate  job? 
Have  some  of  them  even  read  the  rule  book? 

The  athletes  involved  don't  clown  around,  and  they  expect 
the  same  kind  of  behavior  from  the  refs. 

They  not  only  have  a  responsibility  to  their  class  and 
instructor,  but  to  those  who  play  as  well.  They  are  there  to 
properly  and  fairly  officiate  the  event,  not  just  to  throw  yellow 
linen  and  blow  whistles  and  have  fits  at  being  corrected  by 
others.  It's  their  proving  ground,  so  let  the  proving  commence. 

Of  course,  not  every  infraction  can  be  seen  and  called  by  the 
referee,  but,  I  suggest  they  at  least  read  the  rule  book  in  order 
to  know  one  when  they  see  it.

Former  Student 

Dear  Editor: 

As  a  former  student  of 
SMC,  1  hold  concern  for  the 
feedback  I  am  receiving  as  far 
away  as  Orlando.  My  concern 
stems  from  the  unrest  felt  in 
the  hearts  of  those  letters  on 
the  worship  services  and  the 
discomfort  of  their  scheduled 


There  isn't  any  question 
that  there  shouldn't  be  re- 
quired worships  for  the  dorm 
residents.  That's  accepted 
policy  for  any  Adventist  edu- 


Leftys  Want  Rights 


Dear  Editor: 

We  belong  to  a  special 
minority — a  minority  that  does 
include  quite  a  few  people  on 
campus,  more,  in  fact,  than 
many  realize. 

Call  us  leftests.  leftys.  left- 
outs  or  wierd,  but  we  are  an 
unescapable  and  inevitable 
part  of  society.  Yet  we  are 
forced  to  survive  in  a  right 
handed  world,  even  though 
the  majority  of  the  population 
read  and  write  from  left  to 
right.  Usually  we  adapt  well 
and  compensate  by  being 
more  ambidextrous,  but  there 
is  one  area  in  which  we  can't 
adapt,  and  that  is  using  the 
desk-chairs  in  the  majority  of 
the  classrooms. 


Addresses   Worship  Schedule 

cational    institution.       I    per-    tured    programs     are     much 
sonally  feel  that  if  the  wor-    more    interesting    and    re- 
ships  are  structured  properly,    warding  than  those  filled  with 
the      men      would      enjoy    all  of  the  proper  etiquette, 
attending     them     voluntarily 

and    benefit    from    the    ex-        Most  students,  by  the  time 
perience.     As  a  co-leader  of    they  attend  college,  will  either 
the  Young  Adult  Division  of    be    apathetic    toward     the 
the  Forest  Lake  Church  Sab-    church  or  they  will  have  their 
bath  School,  I  am  concerned    heads  on  straight  and  praise 
with  the  interests  of  the  young    the  Lord  for  the  opportunity  of 
adults  attending.      Our  Sab-    being    there    in    a    Christian 
bath     School    programs     are     atmosphere.        There    will 
designed  and  tailored  with  the     always  be  a  certain  percentage 
formalities  that  are  a  tradition,     of  the  apathetic  crowd  where- 
Many  times  the    less    struc-     ever  you  are,  but,  I  think  the 
majority   of  the    students    at 
SMC  are  happy  to  be   in   a 
school   where   Christians   are 
the  ruling  body. 

I  agree  with  Scott  Aycock 
(Oct.  4),  the  men  should  be 
allowed  to  conduct  a  morning 
worship  service.  Why  not  let 
the  Student  Government  lead 
out  in  the  morning.  If  they 
only  wanted  to  get  together 
and  sing. ..fine!  Atleastthose 
there  in  attendance  would  be 
sincere,  wanting  to  be  there 
and  enjoying  the  fellowship. 
I  feel  that  the  less  concrete 
format  would  be  very  popular. 
As  an  example,  our  Sabbath 
School  has  been  able  to  grow 
from  an  original  eight  mem- 
bers to  an  average  of  thirty- 
five  in  a  year  and  a  halfl  Our 
members  like  our  class  be- 
cause of  its  flexible  format. 
The  institution  of  a  morning 
worship  service  (with  worship 
credit)  might  help  ease  the 
tension  caused  by  the  sched- 
uled 9:30  and  10  p.m.  ser- 
vices. It  would  at  least  give 
you  a  working  alternative. 


They  are  almost  impossible 
to  write  on  when  your  elbow  is 
hanging  unsupported  in  air 
and  you  are  twisted  around  in 
uncomfortable  knots  trying  to 
efficiently  scratch  down  notes. 
Life  is  confusing  enough  for  us 
without  this  added  obstacle. 

Perhaps  a  few  left-handed 
desks  could  be  placed  in  major 
classrooms  where  the  desk's 
writing  surface  is  impossibly 
small  and  located  so  far  to  the 
right.  This  small  addition 
would  make  note-writing  and 
test-taking  a  lot  less  cramped 
and  a  lot  more  legible. 

Leftly  yours,

Chronicles  of  the  Campus  Kitchen  Revealed 


If  there's  one  place  that  gets 
more  flack  than  any  other  on 
campus,  it  has  to  be  the 
Campus  Kitchen.  With  a 
nickname,  "Greasy  Spoon."  it 
is  an  easy  target  for  de- 
meaning comments.  So  it  is 
my  purpose  to  dedicate  this 
article  to  the  CK  and  it's  many 
devoted  workers. 

I  wasn't  planning  to  say 
anything  bad  about  the  CK, 
but  since  lying  isn't  right,  I 
changed  my  mind.  Instead,  I 
will  tell  of  a  recent  visit  to  the 
CK    that    cha 


Steven  djckerhoff 


I  walked  into  the  CK.  ma- 
neuvered through  the  tables 
saying  "Hi"  to  people  I  knew 
and  proceeded  to  the  "Order 
Here"  counter.  Very  cour- 
teously 1  said.  "I  would  like 


two  comdogs  and  some  french 
fries,  please." 

The  girl  behind  the  counter 
looked  up  from  her  writing 
with  a  gleam  in  her  eyes, 
reached  over  the  counter, 
grabbed  me  by  the  collar  and 
lifted  me  off  the  ground. 
Face  to  face  she  gritted 
through  her  teeth,  "Can't  you 
read.  Buddy?  We're  out  of 
corndogsl"  Then  she  dropped 
me  to  the  floor. 

"Well  I'm  sorry,"  I  con- 
tinued.    "I'll  take  a  cheese 


omelet  then." 

She  wrote  the  order  and  tore 
off  the  receipt  and  shoved  it 
into  my  hand  without  looking 
up  or  saying  another  word. 

Then  I  got  a  couple  of  milks 
and  chips  to  curb  my  appetite 
I  had  to  juggle  everythmg  as 
I  waited  in  line  because  they 

It  took  about  15  minutes  to 
get  to  the  cashier  because 
they  were  training  a  new 
recruit  and  she  didn  t  know 
many  of  the  pnces      I  finally 


got  to  her  and  handed  her  my 
receipt. 

"What's  a  prosage  shake 
cost?"  she  asked  me. 

"Either  15  or  20  cents." 

"Mrs.  Combs,  what's  a 
prosage  shake  cost?"  She 
didn't  believe  me. 

By  the  time  she  finished 
pricing  everj'thing  I  had,  I  had 
missed  my  10  and  11  o'clock 


classes  and  was  suffering  from 
malnutrition. 

I  stumbled  over  to  a  table 
and  with  the  little  strength  I 
had  left,  fought  to  open  my 
milk  carton.  As  I  drank  it.  1 
could  feel  the  energy  coming 
back  to  my  body. 

This  story  began  last  Mon- 
day, and  I'm  still  sitting  in  the 
CK  waiting  for  my  order.

Survey  Shows  Disapproval  of  Campus  PDA 


DTerri  Prins 

PDA.  What  is  it?  For  those 
few  people  who  have  been 
hibernating  their  way  through 
SMC.  it  is  Public  Display  of 
Affection-

showing  the  world  how  much 
you  love  the  one  you're  with, 
■  allowing  an  oppor- 
tunity for  a  lingering  kiss  to 
pass  by. 

PDA  is  why  the  soft,  com- 
fortable couches  were  taken 
out  of  the  Student  Center  last 


for  soft,  comfortable  beds, 
until  the  Student  Center  was 
dubbed  the  "passion  pit." 

And  PDA  is  why  students

Pre-Registration  Set  for  18th 


□  Melissa  Smith 

Pre-registration  for  the  1980 
winter  semester  will  be  held 
Sunday,  Nov.  18,  in  the  Physi- 
cal Education  Center. 

Students  may  pick  up  their 
passes  from  Monday,  Nov.  12, 
to  Friday,  Nov.  16,  at  the 
switchboard  in  Wright  Hall. 
Also  the  revised  class  sche- 
dule may  be  picked  up  at  the 
switchboard  starting  Nov.  13. 
The  passes  will  be  issued  for 
the  following  time  periods: 
senior,  8:00-9:30;  freshmen, 
9:30-12:00;  juniors.  1:30-3:00, 
sophomores,  3:00-4:30;  and 
special  students,  4:30-5:00. 

For  each  first-year  student, 
the  data  sheet  will  indicate 
whether  the  student  needs  to 
take  remedial  work.  These 
statements  have  been  updated 
since  first  semester  to  include 
transcripts  or  ACT  scores  that 
were  received  this  semester. 
These  data  sheets  will   not. 


however,  reflect  the  courses  of 
students  who  are  presently 
enrolled.  Mid-term  grades 
will  also  be  listed  on  the 
registration  packets,  so  the 
adviser  may  easily  determine 
if  a  student  is  enrolled  for  the 
remedial  courses  needed. 

Students  may  drop  or  add 
pre-registered  courses  until 
Dec.  20  or  after  Jan.  7. 
Because  the  grades  and  copies 
of  the  students'  second  semes- 
ter programs  will  be  run  on  the 
computer  during  Christmas 
vacation,  no  changes  may  be 
made  on  the  second  semester 
schedules  during  that  time.    . 

Because  some  who  pre- 
registered  last  year  did  not 
return  and  there  was  no  way  of 
determining  this  until  the 
teachers  reported  class  ab- 
sence, "Validation  of  Enroll- 
ment" cards  will  be  issued 
starting  Jan.  7  at  Wright  Hall 


Marie   Shorter  to  Present 
'Success  Image^   Seminar 


□  Kimberly  Wygal 

"Projecting  Your  Success 
image,"  a  seminar  for  the 
residents  of  Thatcher  Hall, 
will  be  presented  Wednesday, 
Nov.  14,  from  7:30-9:30  p.m. 
and  Thursday,  Nov.  15,  from 
5:30-7:30  p.m.  in  Thatcher 
Hail  chapel. 

The  seminars  will  focus  on 
the  secrets  of  creating  and 
developing  a  successful  self 
image.  Marie  Shorter  of 
Atlanta,  former  high  fashion 
model  and  television  person- 
ality, will  conduct  the  semi- 
Women  participating  in  the 
seminars  will  learn  to  present 
themselves  effectively  and 
develop  those  inner  qualities 
they  desire.  Shorter  will  focus 
on  all  the  factors  that  enter 
into  the  image  women  want  to 
project— how  to  dress,  walk, 
talk,  and  develop  inner  confi- 
dence. She  will  also  provide 
guidelines  women  can  use  in 
both  business  and  home,- 
Emphasis  will  be  placed  on 


how  to  build  and  project  a 
personality  in  a  positive  man- 
ner, and  how  to  project  confi- 
dence and  poise.  Shorter's 
theory  is  that  how  a  person  is 
perceived  is  an  extremely 
important  part  of  getting  a  job 
applied  for,  promotions  on  the 
job,  and  success  in  social 
settings. 

Shorter  will  help  the  Chris- 
tian woman  present  herself  to 
the  world  as  an  example  of 
both  inner  and  outer  beauty  so 
as  to  enhance  their  personal 
effectiveness  in  today's  chal- 
lenging world. 

Shorter  will  also  hold  a 
seminar  Thursday,  Nov.  15,  at 
7:45  p.m.  in  the  Thatcher  Hall 
chapel,  A  small  fee  will  be 
charged  for  this.  Also  she  will 
be  the  guest  speaker  at  the 
joint  Home  Economics  and 
Office  Administration  chapel 
that  day.  Chapel  credit  will  be

switchboard.  These  bright 
yellow  cards  will  have  the 
students  name  and  confirmed 
enrollment.  Also  attached  will 
be  a  class  schedule  print-out. 

"I  urge  all  students  to  take 
the  class  schedule  to  every 
class  on  the  first  day  so  you 
are  sure  that  no  mistake  has 
been  made, ' '  stated  Mary 
Elam,  associate  director  of 
Records  and  Admissions. 
"And  student  financial  ac- 
counts must  be  in  order  to 
receive  the  verification  cards 
and  schedules." 

Instructors  will  initially  ad- 
mit students  to  a  class  only  if 
they  have  this  card.  The 
instructors  will  not  collect  the 
cards,  only  verify  the  student 
attendance.  Verification  me- 
thods will  be  determined  ac- 
cording to  class  size  and 
instructor  preference.  In- 
structors will  be  announcing 
the  computer  number  of  their 
classes  to  insure  students  that 
they  are  in  the  correct  class. 

The  Orlando  campus  stu- 
dents and  students  going  on 
the  New  York  trip  are  asked  to 
notify  Admissions  and  Re- 
cords of  the  classes  they  need. 
Places  will  be  reserved  for 
them  on  the  class  membership 
cards,  since  it  will  be  impos- 
sible for  them  to  attend  the 
pre-registration.

Curt  Matson  to  Bring 
Switzerland  to  SMC 


DD.  L.  West 

Award  winning  lecturer 
Curt  Matson  brings  "Switzer- 
land— in  4  Seasons"  to  SMC. 
Nov.  10  at  8  p.m.  in  the 
Physical  Education  Center. 

Starting  in  the  springtime, 
Matson  coaxes  the  audience 
into  a  Swiss  mood  with  a  brick 
mountain  climb  up  the  Mat- 
terhom  near  Zermatt,  then 
onto  the  highland  meadows  to 
view  the  unchanged  pastoral 
life  of  the  dairy  farmer.  The 
mountain  towns  of  Wengen, 
Bern,  Zurich,  Geneva  and 
Interlaken  are  included  in  the 
spring  and  summer  itenerary. 
An  electric  train  ride  up 
Lauterbrunnen  Valley  to  Jung- 
fraujoch,  reaching  an  altitude 
of  11,300  feet  in  the  midst  of 
the  Bernese  Oberiand  Alps, 
concludes  the  season.  Here, 
in  the  highest  train  station  and 
hotel  in  Europe,  he  pauses  to 
survey  the  Alpine  room  of  the 
European  continent. 

The  Swiss  journey  continues 
with  a  brief,  perilous  boat  trip 
to  the  center  of  Rhine  Falls, 
then  up  the  Rhine  River  to 
Basel  to  join  the  Basler  Fast- 
nacht,  similar  to  the  New 
Orleans  Mardi  Gras. 

High  above  the  cify  of 
Lucerne,  even  in  the  summer, 
there  is  ice  on  the  lakes  of 
Alpine  passes  like  Susten, 
Simplon    and    Furka.        The 


Rhone  Glacier  changes  very 
little  regardless  of  season. 
Leaving  the  Switzerland  artic 
behind,  he  travels  to  the 
sub-tropical  Tidno,  where  in  a 
Mediterranean-like  climate 
change  is  also  minimal.

fabulous  resorts  where  skiers 
migrate  to  Switzerland's 
famed  winter  playgrounds. 
The  film  ends  after  a  spectac- 
ular round  of  skiing. 

Curt  Matson,  with  an  im- 
pressive background  as  actor, 
narrator,  dramatic  coach,  di- 
rector, photographer  and  film 
lecturer,  combines  a  sparkling 
and  perceptive  narrative  with 
superb  photography.  He 
brings  warmth  and  humor  to 
the  platform  in  a  style  pol- 
ished by  his  work  in  the 
theater  and  motiofa-pictures. 

Tickets  are  available  now  at 
the  Student  Center  and  will  be 
at  the  door  at  the  time  of  the 
show.  The  cost  depends  on 
the  location  of  the  seats.

section  which  is  50  cents.  All 
others  pay  $1.00,  52.00,  and

inactivity  and  life  just  seems  blue. 

College  doesn't  always  have  to  consist  of  books  and 
worries — getting  out  and  systematically  and  regularly  partici- 
pating in  some  form  of  exercise  will  defog  that  brain  and 
;  your  energy  level.  All  those  students  who  already 
;  daily,  will  tell  you  that  tension  is  released,  stamina  is 
increased,  you  need  less  sleep  and  you  just  feel  better  all  over. 
If  depression  is  your  problem,  try  getting  out  and  running  or 
swimming  or  whamming  a  racquet  ball  for  a  while.  After  this 
exercise,  you  will  have  a  better  self  image  and  a  lot  of  your 
troubles  will  seem  not  as  important.  Do  this  frequently,  and  you 
will  seldom  have  those  down  moods. 

The  College  offers  many  opportunities  to  exercise.  A  heated 
pool,  open  at  convenient  times,  a  paved  and  lighted  track, 
always  available,  quite  a  few  tennis  courts,  racquetball  courts  to 
slam  out  frustration,  basket  ball  courts,  and  the  weight  room  in 
Talge  Hall  for  both  men  and  women.  If  none  of  these  suits,  try  a 
peaceful  walk  through  the  beautiful  Tennessee  hills. 

Don't  have  the  time?  You  don't  have  time  not  to  do  your  body 
this  favor!  Exercise  will  make  you  healthier,  wealthier  in 
self-image,  and  with  that  cleared  out  and  unclogged  brain, 
maybe  a  little  wiser.

Last  year  as  a  freshman  I 
was  always  hearing  a  few  loud 
mouths  complain  about  PDA, 
but  I  never  heard  anyone  tell 
me  where  I  could  go  to  give 
my  sweetheart  a  kiss.  Just  as 
the  Student  Center  has  been

Particularly  towards  the  back  of  the  church,  there  is  too  much 
noise  and  PDA  than  should  be  acceptable.  Generally,  it  seems 
that  most  attentive  students  sit  closer  to  the  front  because 
they're  interested — or  try  to  be — in  what's  going  on.  But  I  feel 
if  chapels  could  be  geared  to  suit  the  interest  of  more  of  the

The  collection  was  originally 
begun  as  a  laboratory  project

collect  and  maintain  a  live 
organism  and  to  observe  and 
keep  notes  on  it  throughout  its 
life  cycle.  For  example, 
students  have  found  moth  and

rather  prefers

Snakes  make  up  the  larger 
part  of  the  collection  of  crea- 
tures in  Hackman  Hall.  This, 
is  because,  says  Dr.  David* 
Steen,  associate  professor  of 
biology,  two  biology  stu- 
dents— David  Youngberg  and 
Ken  Nelson — have  a  particu- 
lar  interest   in    reptiles    and

observed  are  crickets,  spiders, 
and  praying  mantises — one 
hangs  heavily  from  the  top  of  a 
twig,  its  fat  green  abdomen 
looking  full  of  eggs. 

The  most  lively  members  of 
the  zoo  are  the  white  mice. 
They  live  in  a  cage  by  the 
window,  merrily  reproducing 
and  growing  and  running 
round  and  round  inside  their 
squeaky  exercise  wheel,  all 
unaware  of  their  eventual  fate 
as  a  snake  dinner.  1  watched 
the  copperhead  unconcernedly 
swallow  three  of  them  at  one 
sitting,  each  bigger  around 
than  his  own  neck,  making 
bulges  in  his  length  which 
gave  him  the  disconcerting 
look  of  a  skinny  man  with 
three  vague  pot  bellies. 

Other  attractions  are  a  rat,  a 
scorpion,  and  a  hive  of  bees. 
The  rat,  belonging  to  Biz 
Fairchild.  is  black  and  white, 
with  a  naked  tail  and  sharp 
yellow  teeth.  His  name  is 
Rudyard  and  he's  always  hun- 
gry. Next  to- his  cage,  a  deep 
dish  makes  a  home  for  a 
scorpion.  It  also  used  to  be 
home  for  two  other  scorpions, 
before  they  managed  to  es- 
cape one  night,  climbing  on  a 
paper  towel  carelessly 
dropped  in  their  dish.  The 
bees  are  working  busily,  as 
bees  are  supposed  to  do, 
filling  a  wax  comb  behind  an 
observation  glass  panel  with 
rich-looking  golden  honey. 

Nearby,  blue  guppies  swim 
through  an  aquarium  of  some- 
times green  water.  Dr.  Steen 
has  set  up  a  natural  aquarium 
system,  using  no  filters  or 
pumps,  but  rather  just  sun- 
light and  fresh  air.  A  natural 
terrarium  for  salamanders  and 
other  amphibians  is  planned 
for  the  near  future. 

Dr.  Steen  requests  students 
not  to  kill  or  let  go  the  various 
creepy  crawlers  they  may 
happen  to  find.  Instead,  they 
should  bring  them  to 
Hackman  Hall  where  they  can 
be  added  to  the  natural  history 
collection.  The  snake-keepers 
are  especially  looking  for  coral 
snakes,  rattlers,  scariet  king 
snakes,  water  moccasins,  and 
and  garter  snakes.

Pilgrim^s  Progress  Completed  at  the  Heart 


Seeker's  journey  through 
College  Dale  was  sow  many 
days  old  and  total  despair  was 
expressed  in  each  belaboured 
step.  But  there  approached 
one  to  Seeker  dressed  in  fair 
attire.  He  wore  trousers  of 
white,  a  shirt  of  white,  and,  in 
the  brisk  autumn  air  he  had 
domied  a  sweater — of  white.  I 
looked  closer  and  noticed  that 
shoes,  belt,  and  yes,  socks 
were  all  of  white.  But,  though 
white,  a  strange  white  it  was 
indeed.  Clorox  nor  Ooroz  II 
could  such  a  white  as  this  _ 


John  mcvoy 


procure.  The  cfoth  from  which 
this  all  was  made  was  also 
without  earthly  peer.  Never 
material  of  such  a  weave  hath 
any  loom  of  earth  perceived. 

So    attired,    this    one    ap- 
proached and  spoke  thus  to 

True-Friend:    You  must  be 
Seeker.      I  am  True-Friend, 


Lee  on  Campus  to  Promote 
Adventist  Colleges  Abroad 


though  you  may  have  heard  of 
me  by  my  other  name,  Share- 
Christ. 

Seeker:  I  am  pleased  to 
meet  you.  I  am  verily  as 
you  have  said — Seeker. 

True-Friend:  Would  you  be 
rid  of  that  great  burden? 

Seeker:  Yes  {and  to  him- 
self, "here  we  go  again"). 

True-Friend  then  drew  close 
and  spoke  in  low  and  earnest 
tones  that  I,  their  content, 
could  not  tell.      After    con- 


versing so  for  some  time,  they 
came  to  a  small  ascent  which 
was  crowned  by  a  wooden 
cross.  As  a  Christian  I  thought 
I  recognized  the  place,  and 
looked  for  a  signpost  to  read, 
"Calvary,"  or  "Golgotha." 
Strange  that  these  words  upon 
my  eyes  then  fell,  "The  Heart 
of  College  Dale." 

True-Friend  was  pointing  to 
the  cross  and  speaking  to 
Seeker  in  tones  now  a  bit 
louder  for  their  triumphant 
ring: 

".  .  .'twas  here  all  this  took 
place.  If  thou  were  the  only 
one.  He,  this  work,  would 
have  begun.  .  ." 

With  that  I  saw  the  burden 
begin  to  loose  from  Seeker's 
back  till  it  tumbled  out  of  sight 
and  upon  some  unseen  place 


did  light.  And  then  what  a 
transformation  occurred. 
Seeker's  tags  melted  away 
and  in  their  place  appeared 
the  same  shining  raiment 
which  True-Friend  wore. 

I  watched  Seeker  as  he  now 
continued  his  journey  through 
College  Dale,  light-hearted 
and  free.  His  journey  was  not 
long  until  he  came  to  a  large 
hill  dubbed,  "Graduation." 
Before  its  final  crest,  he 
turned  and  to  a  small  group 
gathered  there  spoke  thus: 

"These  words,  my  fel- 
lows, mind: 

Do  seek  that  ye  might 
find, 

that  place  whereat  my 
burden  fell, 

ah,  yes.  The  Heart  of 
College  Dale."

Sunday,  Nov.  U,  was  the 
grand  opening  date  for  Taco 
Fiesta,  the  new  Mexican  res- 
taurant which  offers  the  option 
of  beef  or  vegetarian  entrees. 
Festivities  for  the  opening 
included  radio  station  WDOD 
broadcasting  live  from  in  front 
of  the  restaurant;  Southern 
Missionary  College's  noted 
guitarist  Steve  Martin  was 
there  as  their  strolling  mari- 
acha,  and  tied  in  front  under 
the  Taco  Fiesta  sign,  was 
Little  Lolita,  a  small,  gray 
burro,  decked  out  in  a  som- 
brero with  holes  for  her  ears 
and  a  fur  blanket  with  the 
Taco  Fiesta  logo  on  it. 

For  years  Taco  Bell  has 
been  the  fast-food  haven  for 
Adventists.  There  they  could 
order  bean  burritos  and  tos- 
tadas,  taking  it  for  granted 
they  weren't  getting  any 
meat.  That  is,  until  the  word 
was  out  that  Taco  Bell  was 
adding  lard  to  their  beans. 

With  this  problem  in  mind. 
Dr.  Donald  Fillman  and  Stan 
Schleenbaker  conceived  Taco 
Fiesta  over  two  years  ago  and 
incorporated  it  in  1977.  They 
wanted  to  build  a  restaurant 
that  Adventists  could  eat  at 
and  be  assured  that  they  were 
not  getting  any  meat. 

The  menu  at  Taco  Fiesta 
includes  tacos,  burritos,  tos- 
tadas,  frijoles,  and  Fiesta 
burgers.  Unlike  Taco  Bell 
they  have  included  cheese 
enchiladas,  chili  and  nachos 
with  cheese  or  bean  dip.  Their 
chips  are  fried  daily. 

Mr.  Stan  SchJeenoaker, 
manager  of  Taco  Fiesta,  said, 
"Only  three  items  are  pre- 
pared with  beef  and  those 
three  can  be  ordered  vege- 
tarian upon  request.      SDAs 


can  feel  comfortable  eating  at 
Taco  Fiesta  because  great 
precautions  have  been  taken 
to  assure  our  people  that  they 
are  eating  vegetarian  in  every 
aspect.  Even  the  chili  is  made 
with  100  per  cent  vegetarian 
protein.  The  enchiladas  are 
available  only  in  cheese." 

Desserts  are  included  in  the 
Taco  Fiesta  menu,  too.  Fro- 
zen fruit  yogurt,  soft  vanilla 
ice  cream  and  sopapillas  are 
provided  "to  make  sure  neo- 
ple  can  feel  comfortable  and 
satisfied  by  having  a  complete 
meal  including  a  dessert." 

To  those  who  are  concerned 
with  cleanliness,  it  is  to  be 


observed  that  the  cashiers  do 
not  handle  the  food.  And  for 
added  convenience,  a  drive-in 
window  is  provided. 


will  close  one  hour  before 
sundown  on  Friday  and  open 
one  hour  after  sundown  on 
Saturdays,  staying  open  til  11 
p.m. 

Taco  Fiesta  is  located  only 
eight  miles  from  the  SMC 
campus.  Take  Ringgold  Rd.  to 
East  Brainard  Rd.,  turn  right, 
and  it  is  a  short  distance  past 
the  Red  Food  Store,  on  the 
left. 


Orchestra  Features  Guest 
Violinist   in  Fall   Concert 


The  SMC  Symphony  Or- 
chestra will  present  its  annual 
fall  concert  on  Saturday  even- 
ing, Nov.  17,  at  8  p.m.  in  the 
Physical  Education  Center. 

The  orchestra,  under  the 
direction  of  Professor  Orlo 
Gilbert,  will  feature  guest 
artist  Lilian  Wen,  a  16  year- 
old  violinist.  Wen  began 
studying  violin  at  the  age  of 
five.  She  has  since  studied  at 
the  Staatliche  Hochschule  Fur 
Musik  in  Germany  and  at  the 
Boston  University. 

Now  an  international  per- 
former. Wen  has  appeared  in 
several  states  as  well  as 
Germany,  Taiwan,  China  and 
Canada.  During  the  last  two 
years,  she  has  performed  as  a 
soloist  with  the  Boston  Pops 
Orchestra,  the  Worchester 
Festival  Orchestra  and  the 
Boston  Symphony  Orchestra. 


As-  guest  soloist  with  the 
orchestra.  Wen  will  be  playing 
the  finale  from  Saint  Saens' 
Concerto  No,  3  for  violin  and 
orchestra. 

Also  featured  will  be  Robert 
VandeVere,  trombonist,  son 
of  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Wayne  Van- 
deVere of  Collegedale.  He 
will  perform  Marcello's  So- 
nata No.  11  for  solo  trombone 
and  strings. 

Featured  at  this  concert  will 
be  a  first  for  the  SMC  Sym- 
phony Orchestra — the  per- 
formance of  a  complete  four- 
movement  symphony,  "The 
Reformation  Symphony"  by 
Mendelssohn.  "This  per- 
formance," says  Gilbert,  "will 
demonstrate  the  technical 
growth  of  this  musical  organi-

student  Delighted  with  SA  Fall  Festival 


For  some  people  it's  the  fellowship,  for  others  it's  the  food, 
but  the  best  thing  I  lite  about  Thanksgiving  is  T.V. 

After  three  months  straight  without  a  telly  spitting  out 
mindless  drivel  to  ease  my  tension-tightened  mind,  I  lose 
myself  in  excellent  cartoons  in  the  morning,  football  games 
during  the  afternoon  and  "The  Mouse  on  the  Mayflower"  and 
"Peanuts  Thanksgiving  Special"  at  night. 

Holiday  TV  is  good  therapy.  It  soothes  and  lulls  me  into  a 
relaxed  mood  by  aUowing  me  to  dwell  on  simple,  easy-to- 
understand  plots  and  dialogues.  Miles  Standish  loves  Priscilla 
Aldin,  the  Mouse  finds  a  home  in  the  church  belfry,  and 
everyone  gets  invited  to  Charlie  Brown's  grandma's  house  for 
Thanksgiving  dinner. 

It's  all  so  nice  and  uncomplicated  to  sit  down  in  front  of  a  TV 
in  a  big  armchair  for  a  few  hours. 

Think  about  this  when  you  turn  on  yout  television  over  the 
holidays.  Then  come  back  to  school  refi:eshed  and 
decobwebbed. 

As  you  coop  yourself  up  to  study  for  finals,  remember 
this— only  three  weeks  till  the  Grinch,  Rudolph  and  Frosty.

Dear  Editor: 

I  look  forward  to  "our 
Accent"  each  week,  and  al- 
though a  Junior  who  faithfully 
reads  Dickerhoff,  and  other 
assorted  opinions.  1  have  nev- 
er shared  my  own  with  you. 
Let  me  change  that. 

What  happened  to  the  re- 
porter sent  to  cover  the  Fall 
Festival?  What?  You  say  he 
drowned  on  hisway  across  the 
creekl  In  light  of  that  disaster 
let  me  share  the  following. 

The  atmosphere  was  per- 
fect! Many  hands  worked 
hard  creating  it.  I  was  there 
early  and  I  know.  The 
"stage"  was  dressed  in  hay 
and  nestled  amone  the  bales 
were  perfectly  formed  pump- 
kins. The  trees  were  hung 
with  bobbing  pumpkin  faces, 
and  carved  pumpkins  lent 
their  glow  to  the  night. 

Hands  were  held  and  laugh- 


ter shared  as  we  relaxed  and 
enjoyed  happy  music,  good 
tood,  a  tunny  movie  and  great 
costume  show.  (The  movie 
required  your  own  happy  end- 
ing.) The  bonfire  blazed  as  it 
should,  and  we  cheered  as  the 
feat  of  lamp  pole  climbing  was 
expertly  demonstrated! 

Let's  talk  costumesi  I  saw 
camera  flashes,  was  there  no 
film?  I  just  know  if  you  had 
been  provided  pictures  of  that 
cute  little  Chattanooga  Hoo 
Choo  train,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Bozo 
with  their  crops  of  red  hair, 
the  lovely  Christmas  package 
and  Superman,  etc.  you  would 
have  printed  them!  (There 
was  so-o-o-o  much  space  de- 
voted to  PDA).  Congratula- 
tions to  Dracula  for  being 
grand  prize  winner  and  for 
arriving  on  the  Accent's  front 
page.  How  did  that  happen, 
was  he  thirsty? 


Gainer  Finds  Defense  of  Public  Affection  Unacceptable 


Dear  Editor: 

I  would  like  to  comment  on 
what  I  consider  to  be  the 
appalling  response,  verbal 
even  more  than  written,  to 
Terri  Prins'  report  of  Neroli 
Hills'  survey  on  PDA.  Isn't' 
there  a  Chinese  proverb 
somewhere  that  says  some- 
thing like  "He  who  is  most 
guilty  speaks  loudest  in 
defense?" 

Let  roe  point  oat  a  couple  of 


things  that  the  defenders  of 
PDA  seem  to  have  overlookeo. 
(Of  course,  it  is  said  that '  'love 
is  blind.") 

I)  PDA  in  the  survey  was 
defined  as  displays  beyond 
hand-holding,  ann-entwining, 
and  single  kisses.  Very  few 
people  object  to  these  normal, 
natural,  and  expected  dis- 
plays;   it    is    the    prolonged

kissing  of  various  sorts,  exag- 
gerated body-to-body  contact, 
and  other  even  more  passion- 
ate expressions  that  are  con- 
sidered  objectionable. 

2)  In  spite  of  what  "the 
affectionist"  claims,  there  are 
in  fact  many  places  on  campus 
besides  the  dorm  porches  and 
lobbies  and  daylit  sidewalks 
where  physical  intimacies  can 
be  shared.  Empty  classrooms, 
overhanging  trees,  the  dark 
fields  behind  the  Plaza,  the 
biology  trail — these  are  only  a 
partial  listing  of  the  places 
available  for  private  displays 
of  afi'ection,  also  known  as 
PDA,  and,  I  trust,  equally  as 
satisfactory  to  the  parties  in- 
volved as  the  public  variety. 

3)  Contrary  to  expressed 
opinion,  it  is  not  only  those 
who've  never  had  dates  or 
boyfriends  who  disapprove  of 
PDA.  Both  the  conductor  of 
the  FDA  survey  and  the  writer 
of  the  article  have  steady 
boyfriends;  one  is  engaged. 
There  are  many  other  girls  in 
Thatcher  who  are  also  in  love, 
but  don't  consider  it  necessary 
to  advertise  their  physicaf 
relationships. 

4)  I  find  that  explicit  PDA  is 
unacceptable  not  only  from  a 
Christian  standpoint  of  mod- 
esty, but  also  from  a  social 
standpoint  of  good  breeding. 
People  of  good  taste  and  social 
status  are  able  to  realize  the 
advantages  of  behaving  with 
proper  decorum  in  public.  And 
if,  as  Mr.  Osbom  suggests, 
the  majority  of  students '  on 
campus  is  not  opposed  to 
PDA,  well,  we  all  know  that 


"might    doesn't"  necessarily 
make  right." 

In  conclusion,  I  suppose 
that  "Prof  Rima  is  right. 
Nothing  ever  changes  in 
Happy  Valley.  Some  people 
will  continue  to  insist  on  their 
right  to  bore,  embarrass,  or 
disgust  the  rest  of  the  public 
with  their  displays  of  bedroom 
behavior.  And  some  people 
will  continue  to  be  moved  to 
public  displays  of  irritation  by 
this  sort  of  vulgarity.

Christ  Emphasized,  Not  PDA 


Dear  Editor: 

in  regards 
articles  written  on  PDA,  1  just 
have  one  comment  to  make,  "I 
personally  feel  that  PDA  has 
been  over  emphasized." 

There  is  a  proper  place  and 
time  for  PDA,  but  Thatcher

place  to  say  good  night  to  the 

That's  all  that  I'm  going  to 
say  about  PDA ,  but  let's 
remember  what  this  college 
stands  for.  SMC  is  a  Christian 
college  with  a  goal  to  set.  If 
everyone  would  look  in  his 
SMC  catalog  on  page  2, 
bottom  half  of  paragraph  2,  it 
says,  "The  purpose  of  Chris- 
tian education  is  to  assist  the 
students  in  knowing  and  do- 
ing, with  Christ's  help,  the

Recruitment  Looks  Forward  to  Good  Season 


Football,  hockey,  and  bas-

but  not  much  attention  has 
been  given  to  the  other  major 
sport  at  SMC.  Dr.  Ron 
Barrow,  director  of  Student 
Recruitment,  says  he's 
looking  forward  to  an  active 
winter-off  season.

What  do  you  think  about 
reversal  dating  to  functions  like 
the  Blue  Jeans  Banquet? 

Brian  Rogers,  junior,  accounting,  Orlando.  Fla.:  I  like  the 
way  they  have  it  once  or  twice  a  year — but  if  a  girl  wants  to  ask  a 
guy  out,  I  think  that's  OK. 

Mona  Atkinson,  sophomore,  elementary  education,  Roanoke, 
Va.:  Doesn't  matter  to  me,  I  don't  think  there's  any  big  deal 
about  a  girl  asking  a  guy  out  if  she  wants  to. 

Bruce  Kryger.  sophomore,  chemistry.  South  Lancaster, 
Mass.:  Yeah,  I  think  it's  a  very  good  thing.  But  if  done  too 
frequently  it  could  be  aggravating. 


Kathy  Campbell,  associate  senior,  nursing,  Collegedale, 
Tenn.:  1  wish  village  students  could  find  out  about  things 
sooner.  It's  good  that  girls  can  have  a  chance  to  ask  out  guys 
because  it  lets  them  know  they're  interested.

mind  at  all,  really,  to  tell  the  truth.  Nowadays  women  want 
equality.    If  they  want  to  ask  a  guy,  then  they  ought  to  pay. 


Elbert  Tyson,  IB,  junior,  communications.  Pine  River,  Wis.: 
Yes,  I  like  for  them  to  ask  for  a  change.  It  gets  us  out  of  our 
usual  rut,  but  guys  ought  to  ask  most  of  the  time. 

Sandra  Schiaw,  freshman,  undecided,  Scottsdale,  Ariz.:  It's 
OK  once  in  a  while,  but  it  sort  of  ruins  things.  I  don't  think  guys 
appreciate  getting  asked  out  by  girls  all  the  time. 

Alesa  Fisher,  junior,  dietetics,  Joelton,  Tenn. :  I  love  it!  The 
girls  should  be  given  more  opportunities  to  ask  guys  out, 
especially  if  the  SA  designated  certain  weekends  where  it  would 
be  proper  for  girls  to  ask  guys  out. 


students  and  a  professor  of 
chemistry  in  exchange  for  an 
undisclosed  amount  of  Vega- 
Manager  Knittel  was  under 
fire  last  season  for  his  conser- 
vative style  of  play,  but  this 
year  he  plans  to  play  a  more 
wide  open  game.  "1  was  a 
little  unimaginative  last  sea- 
son, but  that  was  because  the 
team  lacked  the  talent  I 
needed  to  do  the  things  1 
wanted  to.     The  Triple  "A" 


League  at  Georgia- 

Cumberland  Academy  looks 
like  it  will  send  up  its  usually 
fine  crops  of  prospects.  1  also 
have  high  hopes  for  the 
Double  "A"  Club.  College- 
dale  Academy,  and  the  "A" 
Club,  Shenandoah  Valley.  I'll 
even  go  out  on  a  limb  and  say 
that  the  Triple  "B"  League, 
Forest  Lake,  might  finally 
provide  some  talent." 

Men's  dorm  coach  Schlisner 
says  that    last    season    there 


were  too  many  players  who 
were  picked  off.  He,  with 
trainers  Evans  and  Christman, 
plan  to  make  the  guys  ptay  a 
little  closer  to  base  in  the 
up-coming  season. 

Women's  dorm  coach  Run- 
yan  says  things  are  going 
great  and  she's  looking  for- 
ward to  an  exciting  season. 
The  only  problem  is  that  the 
catcher  has  a  weak  arm  and 
has  trouble  throwing  out  guys 
who  like  to  steal  Thatcher  Hall 

Manager  Knittel  is  looking 
forward  to  next  season  with 
high  hopes.  If  the  trades  work 
out.  if  the  minor  league  clubs 
practice,  and  if  the  team  signs 
a  couple  of  free  agents,  SMC 
should  be  on  its  way. 


Two  Thanksgivings 


Many  pairs  of  nicely-shod 
feet  pass  noiselessly  over  the 
plush,  pastel-blue  carpet.  The 
fine-patterned  wallpaper  glis- 
tens a  shimmering  reflection 
of  the  gold  and  crystal  master- 
piece that  dominates  the  cen- 
ter of  the  room.  Beneath  the 
impressive  chandelier  is  a 
long  and  well-laden  table.  Its 
silver  serving  platters  and  as 
yet  unfilled  plates  create  their 
own  gleaming  rendition  of  the 
fixture  hanging  above. 

The  laughter  fades  and  a 
moment  of  silence  ensues 
before  the  portly  man  at  the 
head  of  the  table  intones, 
"Father  God.  we  thank  You 
for  the  bountiful  blessings  of 
another  year.  We  deserve  not 
the  abundance  that  You  have 
bestowed  upon  us.  and  we,  on 
this  special  occasion,  would 
turn  our  hearts  to  You  in 
gratitude  and  praise.  Amen." 


John  mcvay 


Then  talk  and  laughter 
erupt  as  generous  piles  of  food 
distort  the  sparkling  image  on 
each  plate. 

Many  pairs  of  bare  feel  plod 
noiselessly  over  the  pale- 
green  carpet  of  grass.  The 
glowing  orb  on  the  horizon 
signals  the  close  of  another 
day.  One  pair  of  feet  stumble 
and  a  limp  body  falls  to  the 
ground.  The  others,  as  if  by 
cue.  slump  down  together. 
Dark  eyes  peer  aimlessly  out 
of  receded  sockets. 


They  all  lie  together  in  one 
heap — an  ugly  collection  of 
emaciated  limbs  and  bloated 
bellies.  But  for  depth,  the 
place  could  be  their  grave. 
There  is  silence — an  eery 
quietness.    No  one  laughs,  no 


ing  voice,  "Can't  anyone 
finish  off  this  last  piece  of 
pumpkin  pie?"

•Also  one  tied  game 

A  new  course.  Masterpieces 
in  Translation,  will  be  offered 
by  the  modem  languages  de- 
partment  during   the   spring 


Art 


Cent,  from  p.  1 
entitled  "Mandalas"  {man- 
dala  is  an  Eastern  word  for 
prayer).  These  pieces  are  all 
circular  and  deal  with  unity  as 
a  symbol  of  wholeness. 

Within  the  exhibited  col- 
lection will  also  be  the  work  of 
Theodore  Prescott.  Prescott's 
work  is  a  two-part  sculpture 
cast  in  hydrocal,  a  hard  form 
of  plaster.  One  piece  of  his 
work  shows  Eves's  hand 
grasping  the  apple  and  the 
other  shows  Christ's  hand 
nailed  to  the  cross. 

In  his  statement  of  intent, 
Prescott  writes  to  the  viewers, 
"I  have  tried  to  dramatize  the 
relationship  between  rebellion 
and  redemption  by  isolating 
gestures  that  are  similar  in 
form  but  radically  different  in 
meaning." 

The  art  pieces  will  be  on 
display  by  Dec.  1.  Other 
media  will  also  be  repre- 
sented, including  print- 
making,  pottery,  and  painting. 


The  course,  MDLG  304,  is 
designed  to  give  students  an 
acquaintance  with  the  great 
authors  of  those  parts  of  the 
world  speaking  French,  Ger- 
man and  Spanish,  with  a  little 
attention  to  Italian  and  Rus- 
sian. (The  readings  are  of 
course  in  English.)  It  is  meant 


to  be  a  generally  broadening 
course,  opening  new  vistas 
especially  for  those  who  have 
so  far  studied  only  English 
and  American  literature.  A 
few  class  sessions  will  be 
devoted  to  films. 

Masterpieces  in  Translation 
counts  toward  the  literature 
category  in  the  general  edu- 
cation program.  It  will  be 
taught  at  9  a.m.  Mondays, 
hWednes^ays  and  Fridays. 


A  Few  Hints 
from  Student  Finance 


To  help  alleviate  the  long  waiting  time  in  the  Student 
""  offer  the  following  suggestions: 


Finance  Office, 


1.  Don't  be  afraid  to  tell  the  receptionist  why  you  are 
there.  It  could  be  that  either  she  or  the  secretary  could 
help  you  and  you  would  not  have  to  wait  to  see  a 
counselor. 

2.  Try  to  keep  your  meeting  with  the  counselor  to  10-15 

3.  If  you  have  made  an  appointment,  be  in  the  office  on 
time.  If  somebody  else  is  waiting  and  you  have  not  arrived 
by  the  scheduled  time,  then  the  other  student  is  sent  on  to 
the  counselor. 

4.  Feel  free  to  call  the  office  to  see  if  a  counselor  can  see 
you,  if  you  have  not  made  an  appointment.

SA  Celebrates  Christmas 
^'^th  Music  and  Movies 


□D.L.  West 

Dig  out  your  mistletoe,  the 
Student  Association  is  offi- 
cially initiating  the  Christmas 
season  with  a  musical  pre- 
sentation followed  by  min- 
gling and  refreshments. 

Saturday,  Dec.  8,  starting  at 
7:30  p.m.,  a  musical  program 
will  be  held  in  the  Thathcer 
Hall  chapel.  Musicians  will 
serenade  those  who  attend 
with  Christmas  carols.    Light 


bantering  will  break  up  the 
musical  schedule. 

Hot  chocolate,  doughnuts 
and  apples  will  be  served  in 
the  Student  Center  following 
the  music. 

Two  movies  entitled, 
"Truce  in  the  Forest,"  and 
"The  Other  Wiseman"  will  be 
shown  for  the  student  enjoy- 
ment. Both  activities  are  free  1 
Merry  Christmas  from  your 
SAl 


The  next  issue  of  The 
Southern  Accent  will  be 
published  Jan.  17,  1980. 


At  the  present  they  have  only 
raised  $175,000.  The  students 
at  Walla  Walla  College  have 
already  donated  over  $2000. 

"We  feel  that  S3000  is  an 
admirable  goal,"  stated  SA 
President  Les  Musselwhite. 

The  Vietnamese  govern- 
ment is  trying  to  annex  the 
country  of  Cambodia  and  rid 
the  nation  of  all  Pol  Pot 
followers.  The  Khmer  Rouge 
(Cambodian)  army  cannot 
protect  the  people  living  in  the 
country.    Because  of  the  war. 


the  food  supply  has  been 
greatly  reduced. 

Over  600,000  refugees  have 
been  allowed  to  reside  just 
inside  the  Thai  border.  Tem- 
porary camps  have  been  set 
up  to  take  care  of  the  crowds. 

At  the  present  time  SAWS 
is  aiding  in  the  operation  of 
two  of  the  16  refugee  camps. 
The  two  camps  are  built  to 
accomodate  20.000  each;  how- 
ever, 200,000  are  crowded  into 
each.  It  is  requiring  1000  tons 
of    food    daily    to    feed    the 


starving  people. 

Thirty  medical  personnel 
are  at  the  camps  at  the  present 
time  to  treat  the  malaria, 
malnutrition  and  beriberi. 
Another  team  was  sent  to 
Thailand  last  Sunday. 

This  relief  project  supported 
by  SAWS,  church  Worid  Ser- 
vices, UNICEF,  Catholic  Re- 
lief Services  and  CARE  will 
involve  a  massive  air-sealift  of 
165,000  tons  of  food,  hundreds 
of  trained  medical  personnel 
and  will  cost  over  SlOO  million.

Opinions 


editorial 


Today  is  a  sad  day  in  the  Accent  office,  yet  it  is  a  happy  one. 
We  are  halfway  through  the  number  oi Accents  we  have  to  print 
this  year.  But  we  are  losing  four  members  of  the  staff — Terri 
Prins,  Terri  Turlington,  Debra  Gainer  and  Ken  Nelson. 

Terri  Prins  was  always  willing  to  write  a  feature  for  the  paper 
even  though  she  was  only  the  proofreader.  There  were  also 
times  when  she  would  help  create  an  attractive  page  that  was 
very  appreciated.  She  also  deserves  a  lot  of  praise  for  taking  all 
the  personal  slander  she  received  around  campus  for  the  article 
that  she  wrote  on  PDA. 

Terri  Turlington  has  slaved  away  every  Sunday  afternoon 
typing  all  those  classified  ads  and  a  portion  of  the  articles  for  the 
paper.  A  special  thanks  needs  to  be  said  for  the  weeks  she  had 
to  type  the  articles  threfe  times  because  of  machine  difficulty. 


Brunson  Grateful  to  Caring  Students 


jDear  Students  of  SMC: 

I  cannot  find  words  to 
express  our  gratitude  to  you 
all.  A  simple  thank|^eems  sp 
inadequate.  I  never  thought  it 
would  matter  to  anybody  what 
happened  to  me.  Fortunately 
I  was  wrong;  you've  shown 
that  you  care  what  happens  to 
your  fellow  man. 

If  anyone  were  to  ask  me  to 
define  the  word  "Christi- 
anity," there  are  three  words 
that  come  to  my  mind — "Love 
In  Action."  I  would  use  the 
exact  words  to  describe  the 
students  at  Southern  Mission- 
ary College. 

Miss  Hilda  Fern  Remley 
once  told  me  that  Southern 


Missionary  College  is  a  school 
of  caring;  I  agree  totally. 
Thank  you  all  for  caring  so 
much  for  me  and  my  famUy. 

When  I  had  to  leave  school 
and  come  home  to  see  about 
my  family  after  the  fire.  I  was 
really  depressed  and  my  heart 
felt  burdened.  Then  to  hear 
what  you  all  were  doing  back 
at  SMC  to  help  us,  lifted  the 
burdens  off  our  shoulders.  I 
was  so  overwhelmed.  Just  to 
think  tbat  so  many  students 
that  I  didn't  even  know  per- 
sonally, were  doing  so  much 
for  me  and  my  family,  made 
me  feel   like    the    six-million 

For  those  of  you  who  contri- 


buted your  time,  money,  and 
your  energy,  and  for  those 
who  desired  to,  but  for  some 
reason  could  not,  a  heartfelt 
thanks.  Special  thanks  to 
Dean  Schlisner.  Dr.  Barrow, 
Dean  Christman,  and  the  stu- 
dents who  did  the  work. 

Thank  you  all  for  the  dona- 
tions, clothes,  furniture,  and 
most  of  all  for  your  prayers. 

We  will  forever  be  grateful 
to  you,  the  students  and 
faculty  of  Southern  Missionary 
College,  the  "School  of  Car- 
ing."

Mascot  "Buddy"  Needs  Proper  Home 


Dear  Editor: 

We  have  a  little  friend  on 
campus  who  enthusiastically 
greets  us  every  day  and  is  a 
fine  companion.  He  is  good 
natured,  well-mannered  and 
brings  us  joy  and  helps  to  fill 
the  gap  for  all  our  "friends" 
we  have  had  to  leave  at  home. 

We    are    referring    to    the 


black* and  brown  dog  who 
delights  many  on  this  campus. 
Lots  of  students  view  him  as  a 
type  of  mascot  and  enjoy  his 
eager  company. 

We  have  heard  that  if  not 
claimed,  he  will  be  taken  to 
the  pound  and  will  probably 
end  up  being  destroyed.   This

"  Why  must  we  at  Talge  Hall 
be  consistently  bombarded 
with  T.V.  shows  that  are  on  an 
I.Q.  level  of  a  drunk  monkey? 
1  realize  that  some  of  the 
residents  here  are  on  that

would  rather  see  something 
more  exciting  than  "Rudolph

"Raggedy  Ann  and  Andy." 

Whoever  chooses  the  pro-

Why  would  anyone  put

"Smokey  and  the  Bandit?"  In 
another  instance,  the  near- 
great-  "Sound  of  Music," 
which  has  been  shown  twice  in 
the  last  month,  was  shown 
over  James  Bond's  "The  Man

It  would  be  nice  if  someone 
in  the  community  would  give 
him  a  "proper"  home,  but  if 
not,  just  let  "Buddy"  stay 
with  us.  We  love  him  and  he

humans  can't.

Wanted:   Hot  Showers 


Dear  Editor: 

Almost  every  morning  on 
the  east  wing  of  Thatcher, 
Monday  through  Saturday, 
you  can  get  up  as  early  as  6:15 
a.m.  and  have  only  cold  water 
for  your  shower.  If  you  want  a 
hot  shower  after  6:15  a.m., 
you  will  have  to  wait  as  late  as 
10:30  or  11  a.m. 

Upon  talking  to  the  deans  I 
discoyere_d  that  this  has  been  a 
problem  for  quite  a  while.  We 
girls  on  the  east  side  pay  just

early  as  8  a.m.  The  problem  is 
not  only  evident  in  the  morn- 
ings though,  but  Friday  even- 
ings also. 

The  deans  just  keep  saying 
to  spread  the  word  to  take 
shorter  showers.  The  only 
problem  is  that  in  cold  water, 
how  long  do  you  stay  in  the 
shower?  Maybe  five  minutes. 
When  you  do  by  chance,  have 
hot  water,  you  shower  a  little 
w^hile,  but  not  long,  for  we 
now  are  beginning  to  consider 
hot  showers  a  luxury.  We

SA  Purchases  Stereos,  Projector 


PUC   to  Conduct  Tours 
of  China  This  Summer 


Having  sponsored  three 
successful  Study  Tours  of 
China  this  past  summer,  Pa- 
cific Union  College  will  con- 
duct similar  tours  to  the 
Peoples'  Republic  of  China 
throughout  the  summer 
, months  of  1980. 

The  tours  will  enable  par- 
ticipant's to  evaluate  the 
personality  of  China  at  this 
important  stage  of  its  devel- 
opment. Attention  will  be 
given  to  their  world-famous 
historical  sites — the  Great 
Wall,  the  Forbidden  City, 
archaelogical  finds,  folk  festi- 
vals, and  agricultural  and 
industrial  structure.  . 

"Special  emphasis  will  also 
be  given  to  China's  educa- 
tional and  medical  programs. 
Recent  concessions  and  ac- 
commodations to  various  reli- 
gious groups  will  also  be 
noted."  says  tour  director,  Dr. 


Four  stereos  were  recently 
purchased  by  the  Student 
Association  to  be  placed  in  the 
Student  Center.  These  will  be 
hooked  up  the  first  part  of 
January  so  that  people  can 
bring  their  own  records  and 
tapes  and  listen  to  them  in  the 
Student  Center  Mountains. 

Twenty  headsets  have  also 
been  purchased.  The  desk 
workers  will  operate  the 
equipment  that  is  connected  to 
headphone  jacks  located 
throughout  the  Mountains. 
The  money  for  the  system  was 


donated  last  year. 

Monday  evening  the  Stu- 
dent Senate  voted  to  use  some 
of  last  year's  excess  funds  and 
additional  contributions  to  buy 
audio  equipment  for  use  at  SA 
programs. 

The  Senate  voted  to  pur- 
chase a  Kodak  movie  pro- 
jector, Bose  loudspeakers  and 
a  Pioneer  amplifier.  The 
equipment,  which  retails  for 
S2890,  only  cost  the  SA 
S1644.50  because  of  the  dis- 
counts and  contributions. 

It    was    felt    that    in    pur- 


chasing the  equipment,  it 
would  eventually  save  the  SA 
money  that  they  would  have  to 
pay  Audio-visual  to  rent  the 
equipment.  It  would  also  be 
easier  to  hold  programs  on  the 
weekend  without  making  ex- 
cessive prior  arrangements. 

"We  are  utilizing  contri- 
butions and  the  students' 
money  for  services  to  the 
students,"  stated  SA  Presi- 
dent Les  Musselwhite. 

The  new  equipment  will  be 
used  at  the  SA  Christmas 
party  this  Saturday  night. 


Elmer  Herr. 

Each  tour  will  spend  from 
12-15  days  in  China,  and  will 
include  the  nation's  capital 
city  of  Peking  as  well  as 
several  other  leading  cities 
and  scenic  areas.  Bilingual 
interpreters  and  tour  guides 
will  accompany  the  groups 
throughout  their  travels  in  the 
Far  Eastern  country. 

Applications  are  now  being 
accepted  for  the  available 
visas  to  participate  in  this 
educational  experience.  Col- 
lege credit  is  available  to  those 
who  are  interested. 

For  ftirther  information  as

Tours  to  China  being  offered

home  of  Elder  and  Mrs. 
Glenmpre  Carter  on  Bainum

Club  is  also  jointly  sponsoring 
the  party. 

At  the  Literature  Evan- 
gelism Club  meeting  on  Tues- 
day, Nov.  13,  65  students 
attended.  Dr.  Jerome  Clark 
announced  the  new  class  of 
Christian  Salesmanship  in- 
structed by  Elder  Henry  Fish. 
It  will  begin  second  semester 
on  Tuesday  evenings  from 
7:30  to  9:10  p.m.  in  Lynn

*any  two  hours  of  lower 
division  non-departmental 
credit.  The  meeting  ended 
with  the  slide-cassette  pre- 
sentation, "So  Send  1  You." 

Tim  Leffew  was  chosen  to 
replace  Julie  Payne  as 
Secretary-Treasurer  of  the 
club.  Payne  resigned  because 
she  will  be  in  Orlando  with  the 
nursing  program. 

Other  planned  activities  for 
December  are  a  Sabbath 
School  program  on  Dec.  15  in 
Summerour  Hall  with  Tom 
Day  superintending  and  a  club 
meeting  Dec.  11,  featuring  the 
sHde-cassette  program  "Pre- 
pare to  Meet  your  Prospect." 


The  National  Endowment 
for  the  Humanities  through  its 
newly-expanded  Youthgrants 
program  will  offer  more  than 
100  awards  throughout  the 
nation  this  fall  to  students  and 
other  young  people  in  their 
teens  and  early  twenties  to 
pursue  independent  projects 
in  the  humanities. 

These  federal  grants  offer 
up  to  $2,500  to  individuals  and 
up  to  $10,500  to  groups.  They 
are  intended  primarily  for 
those  between  the  ages  of  15 
and  25  who  have  not  com- 
pleted a.aderaic  or  profes-, 
sional  training.  While  the 
program  cannot  provide 
scholarship  support  or  finan- 
cial aid  for  thesis  work,  un- 
dergraduate work  which 
seems  assured  of  public  ex- 
posure can  be  supported.  The 
humanities  include  such  sub- 
ject areas  as  history,  ethnic 
stmiies,  folklore,  anthropol- 
ogy, linguistics  and  the  history, 

Youthgrants  have  been 
used  by  young  people  to  carry 
out  a  wide  variety  of  projects 
such  as  exhibits  of  documen- 
tary photographs,  printed  or 
audio-visual  records  of  local 


history,  and  films  on  anthro- 
pological subjects. 

Another  aid  available 
through  the  Student  Finance 
Office  is  the  Supplemental 
Edi-cational  Opportunity 
Grant  Program.  SEOG  is  for 
students  of  exceptional  tman- 
cial  need,  who  without  the 
grant  would  be  unable  to 
continue  their  education. 

To  apply,  you  must  be 
enrolled  at  least  half-time  as 
an    undergraduate    or    voca- 


tional student.  Graduate  stu- 
dents are  not  eligible.  The 
SEOG  grants  between  $200 
and  S1500  per  year.  The 
SEOG  may  be  received  up  lo 
four  years.  The  total  available 
for  a  four-year  course  of  study 
is  $4000. 

IF  you  are  selected  for  an 
SEOG,  your  educational  insti- 
tution must  provide  you  with 
additional  financial  assistance 
equal  to  the  amount  of  the

student  mob. 

I  don't  come  ^o  Wright  Hall 
very  often,  but  today  I  came 
up  because  of  a  request  by  Dr.

The  Homecoming 


Has  Christmas  come  to  your  house  yet?

With  manger  talk  of  midnight  walks 

And  smell  of  errant  sheep? 

Has  Christmas  come  to  your  house  yet? 

Have  angels  touched  your  nights 
With  praise  to  God  and  peace  on  earth 

And  strange  seraphic  lights? 

Has  Christmas  come  to  your  house  yet? 

Has  lowing  stirred  your  nest 
By  crib  and  stall,  by  loft  or  hall, — 

Or  on  your  Beautyrest? 

Has  Christmas  come  to  your  house  yet? 

Have  Mary  and  Joseph  pled 
Outside  your  tinted  thermopanes 

For  candle,  cup,  and  bed? 


>  your  house  yet? 


0  has  Christmas  c 

And  has  Christ  been  bom  a 
Within  your  dreams,  your  hopes,  your  schemes— 

Within  the  core  of  you? 

Then  let  us  pause  at  Bethlehem 

At  this  time  of  the  year. 
The  Savior  that  the  shepherds  found 

Will  surely  find  us  here!

Civil  War  Battle  Relived  in  Donated  Letter 


has  been  revived 
the  famous  Civil  War  ship,  the 
Monitor,  now  settled  on  the 
ocean  bottom  under  220  feet  of 
water  off  Cape  Hatteras, 
North  Carolina.  Divers  and 
archeologists,  with  the  help  of 
tiny  research  submarines, 
have  extensively  photo- 
graphed the  underwater  site, 
cleared  away  sand  and  debris, 


"The  letter  is  in 
smudged  brown  inl< 
on  yellowed  paper, 
written  in  a  lovely, 
old-fashioned  hand." 


and  recovered  a  glass  mustard 
bottle,  a  signal  light,  and  a 
piece  of  hull  plating. 

The  revived  interest  in  the 
ironclad  Monitor  has  been 
followed_up^  by  the  recent 
donation  to  McKee  Library  of 
a  letter  hand-written  by  a 
Union  soldier  to  his  wife.  The 
letter  gives  an  eyewitness 
account  of  the  battle  between 
the  Monitor  and  Confederate 
ironclad  Merrimac,  which  took 
Mace  on  March  9,  1862. 

The  letter,  dated  March  12, 
1862,  was  written  by  John 
Ethan  Rust,  from  Company  I 
of  the  Indiana  Volunteers,  to 
his  wife  at  home  in  Valparaiso, 


"Dear  Wife... Your 
husband  had  to  dodge 
some  of  the  shells 
though  in  no  dan- 
ger." 


Indiana.  The  letter  was 
passed  down  to  Glenmoore 
and  Lee  Carter,  grandsons  of 
John  Rust,  who  were  bom  in 
Dallas,  Texas.  Glenmoore 
Carter  is  now  retired  in  Col- 
legedale.  A  member  of  the 
,SMC  Committee  of  100,  Car- 
',  ter  volunteered  to  donate  the 
letter  to  the  McKee  Library 
when  he  learned  of  the  large 
collection  of  Civil  War  mate- 
rials it  holds. 

The  handwritten  letter  is 
now  ensconced  on  the  "third 
floor  of  the  Library,  in  the 
Lincoln-Civil  War  Collection 
room.  The  letter,  inside  a 
glass  case,  is  in  smudged 
brown  ink  on  yellowed  paper, 
written  in  a  lovely,  old-fash- 
ioned hand.  It's  surrounded 
by  old  Ciyii  War  history  books. 


drawings  of  the  ironclad  Moni- 
tor and  its  battle  with  the 
Merrimac,  and  an  account  of 
the  1862  battle  from  the 
Encyclopedia  Americana.  The 
letter  can't  be  touched  now, 
because  the  old  paper  is  too 
fragile,  but  it  has  been  tran- 
scribed into  typed  copy  for 
anyone  to  read. 

It  begins:  "Dear  Wife;  I 
have  taken  my  seat  this  morn- 
ing to  give  you  the  particulars 
of  the  fight  at  this  place 
believing  that  you  would  be 
interested  in  it  as  your  hus- 
band had  to  dodge  some  of  the 
shells  though  in  no  danger." 

The  letter  goes  on  to  tell  of 
several  ships  that  came  steam- 
ing down  the  Elizabeth  River 
from  Norfolk,  Virginia,  toward 


"The  shot  fired  at 
her  struck  her,  but 
glanced  off  without 
injuring   her   in   the 


Rust's  regiment  stationed  on 
the  shore  of  Chesapeake  Bay. 
"One  of  them  is  called  the 
Merrimac,  that  same  vessel 
which  the  secesh  (the  Seces- 
sion Confederacy)  said,  when 
finished,  would  clean  out  all 
the  Yankee's  ships  in  Hamp- 
ton Roads."  Rust  described 
the  Merrimac  as  "all  under 
water  except  the  roof  which  is 
the  shape  of  the  roof  of  a 
house  and  all  covered  with 
plated  iron  making  it  bomb 

All  day  the  Merrimac  re- 
mained in  the  harbor^  WTeak-_ 
ing  havoc  on  the  wooden 
Union  ships,  while  the  shot 
fired  at  her  "struck  her,  but 
glanced  off  without  injuring 
her  in  the  least,"  and  the  men 
on  shore  could  only  look  on 
helplessly.  It  was  "sad 
work,"  reported  Rust.  The 
Union  ship  Congress  found 
that  "it  was  no  use  to  try  to 
cope  with  such  a  formidable 
adversary  and  the  white  flag 
soon  ran  up  denoting  surren- 
der of  the  Congress." 

Later  the  Yankee  ship  Min- 

"We  could  see  the 
terrible  nnonster  lying 
at  Se wall's  Point 
eight  miles  from 
camp." 

nesota  arrived  on  the  scene. 
"It  was  the  intention  of  the 
Minnesota,"  wrote  Rust,  "to 
run  up  to  the  secesh  vessel 
(the  Merrimac),  grapple  her 
with  grappling  irons,  holding 
her  in  such  a  position  that  she 


could  not  do  anything  and 
then  scald  her  out  with  hot 
water.. .it  is  the  general  im- 

"The  most  splen- 
did sight  I  ever  held 
as  the  flames  burst 
forth,  lighting  the 
country  for  miles 
around." 

pression  that  she  would  have 
succeeded  if  she  had  not  met 
with  the  misfortune  of  running 
on  a  sand  bar." 

The  battle  ended  as  night 
drew  on,  but  "still  the  Min- 
nesota kept  firing  at  her 
antagonist  as  though  she  was 
determined  to  make  an  im- 
pression on  the  minds  of  the 
crew  if  she  could  not  on  the 
boat."  That  night  the  Con- 
gress caught  on  fire  from  the 
shells  poured  into  her  and 
"while  she  was  burning." 
■wrote  Rust,  "made  the  most 
;splendid  sight  1  ever  beheld  as 
ithe  names  burst  forth, 
lighting  the  country  for  miles 
around." 

Meanwhile,  on  the  shore, 
the  Union  forces  had  their  own 
well-being  to  worry  about,  as 
they  thought  they  would  prob- 
ably "be  attacked  on  land  by 
General  Magruder  who  had 
threatened    this    point    more 

But  the  next  day,  which  was 
Sunday,  March  9.  1862,  the 
_tide  turned.  "As  the  sun 
arose  with  all  its  splendor  and 
the  mist  had  arose  off  the 
water  we  could  see  the  terrible : 
monster  lying  at  Se  wall's 
Point  eight  miles  irom  camp 


evidently  preparmg  to  renew 
her  work  of  destruction.  But 
this  time,"  Rust  notes  with 
evident  satisfaction,  "she 
would  be  met  with  a  vessel 
which  would  fight  her  with  far 
different  success  than  those 
did  the  day  before." 

This  new  vessel  was  the 
Monitor,  '  'completely  under 
water  except  her  guns  which 
are  surrounded  with  heavy 
iron  impregnable  to  all  shots 
and  shells  that  can  be  made." 
When  the  Merrimac  saw  this 
new  opponent,  she  was  "tak- 
en on  surprise  for  they  viewed 
her  for  awhile,  but  soon  they 
came  to  the  conclusion  to 
fight."  And  fight  they  did, 
"like  demons,"  said  Rust.  He 


"The  Monitor  had 
the  advantage  for  she 
was    the    faster    to 

fight." 


and  the  other  men  on  shore 
soon  saw  "that  the  Monitor 
had  the  advantage  for  she  was 
the  faster  to  fight"  and  could 
circle  round  the  Merrimac, 
ramming  and  shelling  her  in 
unprotected  spots-  "which 
made  her  reel  and  act  as 
though  she  did  not  like  it." 

The  battle  lasted  for  five 
hours,  and  at  the  end  of  it  the 
Merrimac  "could  hardly  tra- 
vel" and  had  "taken  flight  up 
the  Elizabeth  River."  The 
men  on  shore  were  grateful. 
Rust  felt  that  "had  not  the 
Monitor  arrived  so  opportune- 


ly the  Merrimac  would  have 
shelled  us  out  of  camp  and 
Magruder  would  have  at- 
tacked us.  In  our  retreat 
perhaps  I  would  have  been  a 
under  the  ground. 


"All  that  remains 
of  the  Monitor  is  a 
barnacle-encrusted 
hulk   on    the   ocean 
floor." 


In  reality,  the  battle  was  not 
a  conclusive  victory  for  the 
Union  forces,  because  the 
Merrimac  was  not  damaged  as 
irreparably  as  Rust  and  his 
fellow-soldiers  would  have 
liked  to  have  thought.  The 
battle  was  significant,  how- 
ever, in  that  it  was  the  first  to 
be  fought  between  the  new 
ironclad  ships. 

Neither  lasted  long  after  the 
historic  encounter  at  Chesa- 
peake Bay-  The  Merrimac 
was  scuttled   in  Norfolk   two 


nths 


being  captured  by  the  Yankee 
forces.   And  the  Monitor  sank 

Hatteras  the  following  New 
Year's  Eve.  Now  all  that 
remains  of  the  Monitor  is  a 
barnacle-encrusted  hulk  on 
-the  ocean  floor,  a  few  artifacts

Thursday,  December  6,  1979  THE  SOUTHERN  ACCENT  -  7 


The   Fourth    Wiseman 


[with  apologies  to  William 
Barclay 's  paraphrase  of  an 
anonymous  author] 

His  name  was  Artaban.  The 
mystic  star  beckoned  and  he 
followed  taking  with  him  a 
sapphire,  a  ruby,  and  a  price- 
less pearl  as  gifts  for  the  King. 
He  was  riding  hard  to  meet  his 
three  friends  at  the  agreed 
place.  The  time  was  short; 
they  would  leave  if  he  was 
late.  Suddenly  he  saw  a  dim 
figure  on  the  ground  before 
him.  If  he  stopped  to  help  he 
would  miss  his  friends.  He 
stayed  and  took  time  to  ensure 
the  feverish  man's  healing. 
But,  he  missed  his  three 
friends  and  their  caravan.  He 
was  forced  to  sell  his  sapphire 
to  hire  his  own  camels  and 
bearers  for  the  desert  journey. 
He  was  sad  because  the  King 
would  never  have  his  gem. 

Artaban  finally  came  to 
Bethlehem,  but  again,  he  was 
loo  late.  Joseph,  Mary,  and 
the  Baby  had  gone.  Herod's 
soldiers  were  roaming  the 
streets.  Their  captain  came  to 
the  door-of  the  home  where 
Artaban  was  staying — the  cry 
of  a  baby  boy  could  be  heard 
inside.  He  stood  in  the 
doorway,  tal!  and  dark,  with 
ihe  ruby  in  his  hand  and 
bribed  the  captain  not  to 
enter.    The  child  was  saved. 


John  mcvay 


the  mother  overjoyed,  but  the 
ruby  was  gone.  Artaban  was 
sad  because  the  King  would  ■ 
never  have  his  ruby. 

Artaban  spent  years  wan- 
dering in  search  of  the  King. 
More  than  thirty  years  later  he 
came  to  Jerusalem.  There 
was  a  crucifixion  that  aay. 
When  Artaban  heard  of  the 
Jesus  being  crucified,  He 
sounded  mysteriously  like  the 
King,  and  Artaban  hurried 
towards  Calvary.  Perhaps  his 
peari,  the  loveliest  in  all  the 
worid,  could  buy  the  life  of  the 
King.  Down  the  street  came  a 
girt  fleeing  a  band  of  soldiers. 
"My  father  is  in  debt,"  she 
mourned,  "and  they  are  tak- 
ing me  to  be  sold  as  a  slave. 
Save  me!"  He  hesitated,  but 
then  Artaban  wistfully  took 
out  his  pearl  and  offered  it  as 

All  of  a  sudden,  the  skies 
darkened  and  a  terrible  earth- 
quake erupted.    A  flying  tile 


hit  Artaban  on  the  head.  He 
sank  half-conscious  tn  the 
ground.  The  giri  pillowed  his 
head  on  her  lap.  Strangely, 
his  lips  began  to  move,  "Not 
so  my  Lord.  For  when  saw  I 
thee  anhungered  and  fed 
thee?  Or  thirsty,  and  gave 
thee  drink?  When  saw  I  thee  a 
stranger  and  took  thee  in,  or 
naked  and  clothed  thee? 
When  saw  I  thee  in  prison, 
and  came  unto  thee?  Thirty 
and  three  years  have  I  looked 
for  thee;  but  I  have  never  seen 
thy  face,  nor  ministered  to 
thee,  my  King." 

And  then,  like  a  whisper 
ft-om  very  far  away,  came  a 
soothing  voice,  "Verily  I  say 
unto  you.  Inasmuch  as  thou 
hast  done  it  unto  one  of  the 
least  of  these  my  brethren, 
thou  hast  done  it  unto  me." 
And  Artaban  smiled  in  death 
because  he  knew  the  King  had 
received  his  gifts

Doing  •  Some  Praising 


What's  that? 

Praise  Magazine. 

What? 

Praise  magazine.  .  .it's  put 
out  by  Campus  Ministries. 

Oh  yeah?  Lemme  see  one. 

There's  a  pretty  interesting 
story  on  page  three. 

Kinda  small,  I'sn  't  it? 

Yeah,  I  suppose.  I  think 
that's  supposed  to  make  it 
distinctive. 

Get  lost  easy,  wouldn  't  it? 

Probably. 

I've  never  seen  it  around 
before.  Is  it  going  to  be  a 
regular  thing? 

Could  be,  but  I've  heard 
they've  been  having  some 
problems  with  it. 

Oh  yeah?  Like  what? 

Just  can't  get  any  stories  or 
something  like  that.  Seems 
they're  pretty  picky  about 
what  they  want  to  put  in  it. 
Don't  want  it  to  become 
another  Review. 

What's  that? 

Oh,  never  mind.  I  heard 
they  need  an  editor  again. 
Their  last  one  can't  do  the  job. 

No  kidding?  Already 
flunking  out,  huh? 

Well,  can't  keep  up  with 
school  and  a  paper  at  the  same 

This  doesn  't  look  like  it  'd  be 

It's  not  really;  just  have  to 
be  motivated  to  do  it.  Guess 
he's  got  other  things  that  take 

Don't  I  know.  .  .So  what  are 
they  going  to  do? 

Well,  first  of  all  they  gotta 
get  some  kind  of  staff.  Seems 
like  right  now  all  they  have  is 
one  or  two  people. 

No  kidding.  Guess  that 
could  gel  a  little  monotonous. 

Not  only  that,  but  one 
person's  ideas  get  used  up 
pretty  quick,  and  then  all 
that's  left  is  the  same  old 
things  over  and  over.  Not  too 
good  for  quality. 

Yeah.  I've  seen  that  before. 
So  what 's  the  holdup?  Sakes 
alive,  they  've  had  all  se- 
mester!  Why  didn  't  they  get 
something  together  earlier? 

Beats  me.  I  figure  things 
just  got  out  of  hand  before 
anyone  realized  it.  Things  do 
have  a  way  of  creeping  up  on 
you.    Besides,  you  know  how 


these  college  publications  are. 

Yeah,  for  sure.  Guess  it'll 
fold  up,  huh?  Same  old  story. 

Well,  I  don't  know.  You 
know,  this  is  a  pretty  neat 
Christian  school,  but  out  of  all 
the  papers  handed  out  on  the 
campus  there's  not  much  in 
the  way  of  an  organized 
religious  magazine.  Now 

I'm  not  talking  about  book- 
learning  religion,  like  who  did 
this  and  why.  I  mean  some- 
thing that'll  really  encourage  ■ 
people  and  help  them  realize 
that  their  faith  isn't  useless  in 
this  world.  I  think  we  need 
something  practical. 

Listen  to  you!  Sound  like  a 
theo  already. 

Yeah,  yeah,  I  know.  But 
don't  you  think  a  paper  like 
that  would  do  some  good? 
Don't  you  feel  down  oc- 
casionally and  really  get  a 
boost  out  of  finding  out  that 
else  went  through 
thing  and  came  out 


Well  sure,  that's  okay.  But 
that'd  take  a  lot  more  doing 
than  just  a  little  thing  like  this. 
You're  talking  about  some- 
thing bigger. 

1  figure  you've  got  to  start 
small  before  you  can  get 
anywhere.  This  f  raise  deal  is 
just  a  beginning.  1  think  that 
if  it  could  get  swinging  for  the 
rest  of  the  year,  why,  maybe 
next  year  it  could  be  some- 
thing bigger.  No  one's  going 
to  back  an  operation  that 
always  fails.  It's  got  to  be 
shown  that  it  WILL  work. 
There's  still  enough  time  left 

Sounds  like  a  lot  of  work  to 

Yeah,  I'm  sure  it  is.  The 
most  work  is  just  sticking  with 
the  crazy  thing.  Following  it 
through  to  completion  each 
month.   That  can  get  tedious. 

Hey.  if  you're  so  gung-ho  on 
this  thing,  why  don 't  you  go 
see  about  being  the  editor? 
You  said  they're  looking  for 
another  one. 

I've  thought  about  it,  but 
look  here.  That's  a  lot  to  do. 
Why,  I'd  just  about  have  to  do 
it  in  the  spare  minutes  I  have 
between  classes.  1  don't  see 
how  I  could  take  it  on  and  still 
get  my  work  done. 


What  this  thing  needs  is 
organization.  'Someone  to 
kind  of  oversee  it.  That 
wouldn 't  take  much  time. 

Yeah,  that  could  be  a  pro- 
blem. Being  split  between 
two  big  jobs  you  wind  up  not 
doing  a  good  job  on  either. 

Not  much  time,  but  a  lot  ot 
desire  to  get  the  thing  done. 
It'd  have  to  be  something 
you're  motivated  to  do. 

What's  this  motivated 
stuff? 

Well,  you  know.  You've  got 
to  get  some  satisfaction  out  of 
domg  it,  out  of  the  actual 
work.  Lots  of  people  like  the 
idea  of  their  name  in  print,  but 
not  so  many  like  getting  it 
there.    It  can_be  tough. 

Well,  I  figuie  what  they 
need  to  do  is  prowl  the  English 
department  and  grab  one  of 
those  up  and  coming  Accent 
editors-to-be  and  get  them  to 
doit.  It' d be  great  experience 
and  if  they  do  a  good  job.  why, 
that'd  be  good  PR  for  an 
election  campaign. 

Aw,  that'd  just  be  com- 
mercialism. You've  got  to 
want  to  do  good  work  for  the 
sake  of  good  work,  not  just  to 
climb  a  ladder.  Besides,  good 
editors  aren't  always  English 
majors,  you  know. 

Yeah,  but  commercialism  or 
no,  at  least  they'd  have  an 
editor.  And  besides,  they 
might  be  able  to  incorporate 
doing  the  magazine  into  kind 
of  a  school  sponsored  thing, 
like  the  Accent. 

Yeah,  I  suppose  so.  But 
who?  Most  people  just  don't 
have  the  time  to  get  some- 
thing like  that  done.  Can  you 
think  of  anybody? 

Not  right  off  hand. 
Guess  they're  back  in  the 
same  boat,  huh? 

Why  don 't  they  advertise  or 


be  lots  of  folks  interested. 

Possibility.  Definite  pos- 
sibility. 

Maybe  we  ought  to  make  a 
suggestion  to  them,  huh? 
Who  would  we  see? 

I    suppose    the     present 

That  goofus!  Do  you  really 
think  he'd  do  anything  about 
it? 

It's  probably  the  only  alter- 


Yeah.  .  .me. 

Uh,  sorry  about  the  cracks, 
just  kidding,  of  course. 

Of  course. 

Well,  what  do  you  think 
about  the  idea  of  advertising? 

Might  have  merit.  Guess 
we'll  have  to  see.  ■ 

Yeah,  well.  Hey.  I  gotta 
run.  .  .classes you  know. 

Yeah,  I  know. 

Hope  you  find  someone  to 

Yeah,  thanks.  I'm  sure  I 
will. 


Advertise? 

Ydah.  sure.  Maybe  set 
aside  a  little  area  in  the  Accent 
or  maybe  put  out  a  special 
edition  of  this  thing  and  let 
people  know  what's  going  on. 
Probably  the  reason  why 
nothing 's  happening  is  be- 
cause nobody  knows  anything 

Now  that  could  be. 
So  maybe  give  a  little  space 
and  tell 'em.    I'd  bet  there' d

Health  Service  Gives  Tips  for  Safe  Travel 


UEleanor  Hanson 

Student  Services  > 
to  have  a  terrific  i 
wants  to  see  you  return  second 
semester.  With  your  safety  in 
mind  they  have  prepared  this 
article  which  you  will  probably 
agree  is  a  review  of  what  you 
learned  in  driver  education  or 
what  Mom  and  Dad  have  been 
telling  you  all  along.  But, 
have  you  noticed  that  when 
you  review  a  subject  when 
you're  a  few  years  older,  you 
can  sometimes  gain  new  in- 
sights? 

Did  you  know  more  than 
1,000  Americans  are  killed  by 
motor  vehicles  every  weekl 
Ten  thousand  more  are  in- 
jured every  day. 

What  can  be  done  about 
this?  Engineers  and  other 
researchers  are  tackling  the 
problem  of  improving  roads 
and  vehicles  to  reduce  acci- 
dents. Physicians,  hospitals 
and  other  health  and  safety 
agencies  are  seeking  ways  to 
improve  emergency  medical 
care  after  the  accident  to 
reduce  injuries  and  deaths. 
Behavioral  scientists  are 
studying  the  human  factors 
that  contribute  to  driving  er- 


with  ourselves.  As  a  driver 
you  need  to:  know  the  rules  of 
the  road,  practice  courtesy, 
respect  the  rights  of  other 
drivers  and  pedestrians,  un- 
derstand the  capabilities  of 
the  vehicle  and  its  limitations, 
keep  your  car  in  top  running 
condition  and  follow  principles 
of  safe  driving. 

Equally  important,  you 
need  to  be  constantly  aware 
that  your  health  and  state  of 
mind  directly  affect  your  driv- 
ing skills.  Before  you  switch 
on  the  ignition,  ask  yourself 
this  question;  Am  I  feeling 
physically  well,  mentally  alert, 
and  calm? 

Those  of  us  who  think  we 
drive  with  self-control  may 
occasionaly  slip  into  day 
dreaming.  It's  so  tempting  on 
a  lovely  day  to  overly  enjoy  the 
scenery  as  we  drive  the  free- 
ways. It  would  be  so  easy  to 
fail  to  notice  the  unsuspected 
move  of  the  driver  ahead  of 
you.  But  you  really  do  need- to 
give  your  biW  attention  to  the 
two-ton  missile  you  are  hurl- 
ing into  space  at  whatever 
speed  you  choose. 

The  chronically  handi- 
capped driver  is  well  aware  of 
his  condition  and  has  learned 
to  adopt  to  his  handicap.  Had 


you  ever  thought .  that  you 
could  be  a  handicapped  and 
dangerous  driver  because  you 
don't  recognize  your  handicap 
and  are  not  prepared  for  it. 
What  could  these  handicaps 


be? 


-bad 


Emotional  upi 
news  from  home  or  a  mis- 
understanding with  a  special 
friend.  Postpone  the  trip  if 
you  can.  If  you  can't,  realize 
your  situation  and  make  a 
special  effort  to  be  alert  or  ask 
someone  else  to  drive. 

Perhaps  distraction  merits  a 
word  or  two.  Have  you  ever 
tried  to  sneek  a  peek  at  the 
map  or  eat  as  you  drive?  Pray 
you  won't  have  a  blowout 
during  your  lunch  time.  Your 
young  children  as  passengers 
can  be  great  distractors;  plan 
ahead  how  to  deal  with  this. 

Illness — with  something  as 
simple  as  a  cold  I  have  heard 
many  students  over  the  years 
say  to  me  that  they  don't  quite 
feel  "with  it,"  or  consider  hay 
fever  with  its  sneezing,  wa- 
tery, itchy  eyes  (possible  tem- 
porary impaired  vision)  and 
nose  blowing, 

Medicines — along  with  ill- 
ness often  goes  the  taking  of 
medicines.  Some  people  react 
badly  to  a  drug  which  would 
not  bother  someone  else.  So  if 
you  take  a  medicine  you 
haven't  used  before,  wait  until 
lyou  know  its  effects  on  you 
before  you  drive. 


Alertness—I'm  sure  all  of 
you  have  at  times  driven  for 
such  a  long  time  and  perhaps 
on  a  very  straight  road  with 
unvarying  landscape,  and  you 
may  have  realized  there  was 
a  sort  of  hypnosis  or  trance  to 
it.  You  may  have  also  realized 
that  your  reflexes  were 
slowed.  Let  me  urge  you  to  do 
what  you  know  you  should. 
Stop  often  at  the  rest  stops 
and  if  there  aren't  any,  devise 
some  diversion  of  your  own. 

Other  factors  which  can 
affect  your  alertness  are  poor 
ventilation  (too  hot  in  the  car 
or  carbon  monoxide)  and  poor 
vision  (wearing  sunglasses  too 
late  in  the  day,  not  enough 
Vitamin  A  in  the  diet  causing 
night  blindness  or  needing 
glasses).  Some  say  a  head- 
ache will  affect  their  vision. 

Of  course  you  know  you 
should  avoid  trips  on  the  first 
and  last  day  of  a  holiday  and 
late  night  driving  when  the 
drunks  are  going  home  and 
evervone  is  getting  sleepy.  If 
you  feel  you  must  take  some  of 
these  risks  see  if  you  can  get 
by  with  only  one  at  a  time.  If  it 


has  to  be  on  a  holiday,  try  to 
drive  it  all  in  daylight.  If  you 
have  to  drive  straight  through. 


try 


;  that 


holiday. 

Some  people  pray  for  Divine 
protection  before  trips.  Be- 
fore praying  this  prayer  I 
believe  we  should  be  certain 
the  car  is  in  good  mechanical 
condition  and  that  we  are  in 
good  emotional  and  physical 
health  and  are  well  rested.  I 
think  of  the  prayer  as  covering 
the  things  over  which  we  have 
no  control,  like  the  actions  of 

It's  great  when  you're  in 
this  college  age  group  and 
you.  realize  you  are  on  the 
threshhold  of  real  independ- 
ence. But  think  a  minute. 
You  don't  just  belong  to 
yourself  You  belong  to 
everyone  who  loves  you — your 
parents,  that  special  ftiend, 
your  young  spouse,  your  baby. 
Take  good  care  of  yourself  for 
them.  Think  of  your  passen- 
gers. The  people  in  the  other 
car.  Someone  loves  and 
depends  on  them,  too.

Volleyball  Championships 
to  be  Held  December  13 


Footballs,  flags  and  down- 
markers  have  been  packed 
away  and  most  sports  enthu- 
siasts have  retreated  into,  the 
gym  and  to  the  volleyball 
courtsfortheirrecreation.  Six 
A-league  and  ten  B-Ieague 
coed  volleyball  teams  have 
been  formed  and  games  are 
played  every  week  night  at 
5:30,  6:30  and  7:30  p.m. 
When  all  three  volleyball 
courts  are  being  used  at  once, 
the  situation  bears  more  than 
a  slight  resemblance  to  a 
three-ring    circus,    but    with 


eight  games  carefully  sched- 
uled per  night,  each  team  gets 
to  play  a  game  every  night. 
This  is  important  when  the 
playing  season  is  short. 

Regular  games  end  next 
Wednesday,  Dec.  12.  B- 
league  championship  games 
will  begin  at  5:30  p.m.  on  Dec.

On  the  mound  of  earth 
between  the  Thatcher  Hall 
parking  lot  and  Camp  Road,  a 
stainless-steel  structure 

weighing  approximately  300 
pounds  was  erected  during 
Christmas  vacation. 

This  structure,  a  sundial, 
has  been  made  possible  by  a 
class  gift  of  money  from  the 
graduating  students  of  1965. 

This  particular  sundial  was 
designed  for  easy  reading.  On 
a  sunny  day  the  metal  bar 
casts  a  shadow  across  the 
curved  base.  A  hole,  bored 
into  the  bar,  allows  the  sun- 
light to  shine  on  the  marked 
base  which  indicates  the  time 


A  garden  was  planted  on 
the  mound  two  years  ago  with 
dwarf  plants  so  that  no  shade, 
will  be  case  on  the  sundial. 

The  sundial  can  be  adjusted 
to  either  Eastern  Standard 
Time  and  Daylight  Savings 
Time  and  is  accurate  within 

The  structure  was  designed    -'-; 
by  Dr.  Henry  Kuhlman,  pro-    ^

A  total  of  $8,120  was  raised 
by  the  Student  Association  for 
the  Cambodian  refijgees  in 
Thailand.  The      amount 

donated  by  the  students,  fac- 
ulty and  community  is  over 
twice  the  goal  which  was  set  at 
S3. 000. 

On  the  evening  of  Dec.  6  the 
SA  officers  and  senators  con- 
tacted each  SMC  student  that 
was  available. 


Even  one  little  eight-y 
old  girl  in  Chattanooga  heard 
about  what  the  students  at 
SMC  were  doing  and  sent  a  S5 
contribution.

Seventh-day  Adventist  World

"Who's  Killing  Our  Trees?" 


'  'Dean  Schlisner  assured 
me  that  the  men  in  Talge  Hall 
will  have  evening  worships  at 
7  and  10  p.m.,"  explained  Les 
Musselwhite,  SA  president,  to 
the  Student  Senate,  Monday 
evening,  Jan.  14. 

Schlisner  guaranteed  that 
this  would  take  effect  on 
Monday,  Jan.  21  if  the  Stu- 
dent Senate  voted  to  mate  the 
recommendation  to  the  men's 
dean.  However,  if  the  wor- 
ships were  changed  to  7  and 
10  p.m.  the  morning  worship 
would  be  cancelled. 

The  Senate  voted  to  make 
the  recommendation  only 
hours  after  the  Talge  Hall 
Newsletter  had  been  distri- 
buted with  the  statement  that 
the  worships  would  remain  at 
9:30  and  10  p.m.  this  semes- 
Last  semester  the  worship 
schedule  was  changed  to  9:30 
and  10  p.m.  to  accomodate  the 
speakers.  It  was  difficult  to 
get  speakers  who  were  willing 


talk  for  worships  under  the 
old  schedule.  However,  this 
was  not  well  received  by  the 
students.  Realizing  the  prob- 
lem, the  deans  in  Thatcher 
Hall  revertedto  the  old  sched- 
ule in  the  first  part  of  October. 
Musselwhite  expressed  to 
the  Senate  his  appreciation  of 
Dean  Schlisner  for  his  willing- 
ness to  work  with  the  men  in 
changing  the  worship  sched-

SM  in  Palau  Invites  Letters  and  Prayers 


mominQ  devotions 


Dear  Editor: 

I  would  just  like  to  say  how 
much  I  have  enjoyed  the 
Accents  this  year  even  though 
I  haven't  been  at  SMC.  It  kind 
of  keeps  us  SM's  in  touch  with 
what  is  going  on  at  school 
while  we're,  here. 

one  of  the  articles  in  the 
most  recent  one  I  received 
said  something  about  con- 
serving energy  and  maybe  the 
dorms  would  have  to  cut  down 
on  electricity  usage.  A  word 
to  dorm  students.  If  this 
happens,  don't  panic  or  fret. 
Just  think  about  SM's  in  Palau 
and  various  other  places 
where  the  electricity  is  avail- 
able only  when  the  generator 
is  working  correctly,  which  is 
about  one-half  the  time,  and 
who  have  water  only  four 
hours  per  day,  6-8  and  6-8.  Be 
thankful  for  small  blessings. 

1 4o  have  one  reprimand  for 
the  student  body  though. 
When  an  SM  leaves  SMC 
everyone  promises  to  write, 
but  what  happens  when  they 
really  get  to  their  destination? 
No  one  ever  writes.  I  have 
only  gotten  two  letters  from 
anyone  from  SMC  since  1  left 
there  last  spring.  Students, 
your     student     missionaries 


need  your  support  not  only 
through  Accents,  Jokers,  and 
prayers,  but  also  through  let- 
ters from  their  friends  so  they 
will  know  they  haven't  been 
forgotten.  I  think  i  speak  for 
all  SM's  as  a  whole. 

The  Lord  has  really  blessed 
here  this  year,  and  we  have 
the  largest  enrollment  ever 
this  year.  There  are  fun 
times,  frustrating  times,  and 
embarrassing  times  in  the  life 
of  an  SM.  Like  when  you  think 
you  are  getting  so  smart 
learning  their  language  and 
decide  to  try  it  out.  someone 
knocks  on  ihe  door  and  you 
call,  "Bomluk".  When  you 
get  a  funny  response  you  all  of 
a  sudden  realize  you  were 
supposed  to  say,  "Bemtuu." 
What  you  really  said  instead 
of  "come  in"  was  "shut  up." 
Such  is  life  in  the  mission 
field. 

For  all  of  you  who  are 
planning  on  being  SM's  next 
year,  I  can't  recommend  it 
high  enough.  You  will  learn 
more  in  one  year  out  here  than 
you  can  in  four  years  of 
college.  Just  remember  Jesus 
is  the  best  friend  you  have 
even  when  you  feel  you're  all 


alone.  Also  remember  there 
are  SM's  this  year  that  are 
waiting  for  mail. 

Sincerely, 

Audrey  Walterhouse

they  might  as  well  let  them  all  in. 

Kevin  Cummbigs.  sophomore,  nuclear  medicine.  Calhoun.

shouldn't  be  a  lobby  to  bum  around  in  at  all.

Choice  of  TV  Shows  Questioned  ^'''''' 


Dear  Editor: 

The  question  was  raised 
why  "Frosty  the  Snowman" 
over  "Smokey  and  the 
Bandit"  was  on  our  TV's.  The 
answer  is  simple.  Shows  such 
^s  "James  Bond"  and 
'Smokey  and  the  Bandit" 
flaunt  and  propitiate  the  de- 
sire for  sex,  violence,  dis- 
respect, lawlessness  and  pro- 
fanity. Frosty  and  Rudolph 
ate  simply  the  lesser  of  two 
evils. 

My  question  is,  why  either 
pne?  Rudolph  and  Frosty  are 
just  fairy  tales;  they  have  the 
power  to  edify  the  people  of

new  spirit.  Satan  has  infil- 
trated our  ranks  and  brought 
us  down!  Our  people  are  now 
divided;  the  "shaking"  is 
starting. 

There  are  those  among  us 
that  clamor  for  the  gratifica-

among  us,  new  in  the  faith  and 
unexperienced  in  the  way;  we

Rpsolutions  Declared  for  the  New  Year 


It  being  the  beginning  of 
new  year  and  more  irapor- 
tanUy  a  new  decade.  I've 
decided  this  year,  for  my  New 
Year's  resolutions,  to  dig 
deeper  than  I  have  in  the  past 
to  look  for  things  in  my  life 
that  really  offend  me  and 
resolve  to  change  them.  So, 
below  is  an  extensive  list  of 
my  resolutions  with  a  few 
extra  ones  thrown  in  forfipace. 
~  I  resolve  to: 

•Not  be  surprised  with  the 
weather  we  have  been  having 
this  winter  especiaUy  if  it 
snows  this  summer. 

•Read  the  general  an- 
nouncements 1  get  in  my 
mailbox  before  I  throw  them 

•Be  more  thankful  I'm  not 
the  ambassador  to  Iran. 
•Say  something  good  about 


the  CK  and  to  stop  criticizing 
the  food  and  service. 

♦Write  my  Secret  Sister 
even  though  I've  already  writ- 

•Never  again  eat  a  veal 
cuUet  at  the  "fasf't?)  food 
restaurant  in  the  College  Plaza 
next  to  the  Book  and  Bible 
House. 

•Not  laugh  when  someone 
teUs  me  that  the  Rams  have  a 
chance  to  win  the  Super  Bowl. 

•Consider  dating  as  an  al- 
ternative lifestyle. 


•Stop  comparing  the  cafe- 
teria's vegetarian  turkey  loaf 
to  Mom's  Thanksgiving  turkey 
with  ail  the  trimmings. 

•Be  more  conscious  of  the 
exalted  position  of  seniors. 

♦Stop  wondering  which 
came  first,  the  chicken  or  Lynn 
Wood  Hall. 

•Be  more  considerate  of 
freshman  who  keep  asking  rae 
where  Wright  Hall  is,  while 
standing  in  line  at  the  cafe- 

•Stop  bringing  a  pencil  to 


jhapel  and  start  borrowing 
other  peoples'  pencils. 

•Not  to  walk  down  the  hill 
by  the  side  of  the  men's  dorm 
on  rainy  days. 

♦Be  more  considerate  of  my 
neighbors  by  making  sure 
they  can  hear  their  radio 
better   than   they    can    hear 

•Be  sure  when  I'm  taking  a 
cold  shower  that  the  person 


♦Remember  to  bring  every- 
thing back  with  me  that  I  took 
home  for  the  weekend. 

•Make  sure,  when  barrel- 
ling out  of  the  library,  that  the 
gate  is  unlocked. 

♦Not  make  jokes  about  how 
resolutions  are  like  20  dollar 
bills,  pencil  lead,  plate  glass 
windows  and  Chevrolets — 
made  to  be  broken.

SA  Offices  Described 


The  duties  of  SA  officers  are 
many.  The  main  requirement 
is  a  spirit  of  service  and 
willingness  to  spend  time  and 
effort  in  working  for  one's 
fellow  students.  The  financial 
remuneration  for  these  posi- 
tions is  nowhere  near  what 
one  could  make  in  other  jobs. 
Anyone  running  for  an  SA 
office  for  the  money  will  be 
disappointed.  Anyone 

^wanting  to  serve  and  be 
rewarded  with  experience  and 
knowledge  will  be  satisfied.

Social  Activities  Committee,

mittee and  the  Publication

Senate.  The  VP  would  serve 
as  acting  president  until  the 
next  election  if  the  office  of 
president  should  be  vacated. 
He  also  calls  and  chairs  the 
executive  cabinet  meetings. 
Persons  interested  in  this 
position  must  also  be  outgoing 
and  willing  to  work  with  the

Tree  Destruction  Caused  by   Carelessness 


n  Melissa  Smith 

Southern  Missionary  Col- 
lege boasts  one  of  the  most 
beautiful  campus'  in  the 
Seventh-day  Adventist  realm. 
Many  flowering  bushes  and 
trees,  extensive  green  lawns 
and  well-manicured  flower 
beds  grace  the  area.  Bat 
grandest  of  all  are  the  stately 
evergreens  and  deciduous 
trees  that  add  an  air  of 
seasoned  elegance  to  this 
Southern  college. 


These  t 


ees  take  a  life  time 
and  more  to  fully  mature. 
Many  are  sprouted  but  few 
reach  old  age  and  all  ate  pitted 
against  destruction  whether  it 
be  natural  or  human.  This 
natural  destruction  of  disease, 
insects,  fire  and  storms  are 
inevitable,  but  human  de- 
struction by  carelessness  and 
ignorance  is  unnecessary. 

Some  of  the  College's  most 
beautiful  trees  have  met  an 
end  such  as  this. 

An  80-year-old  Sugar 
Maple,  the  kind  of  tree  maple 


syrup  is  extracted  from,  was 
killed  to  put  in  a  new  road  by 
the  first  LitUe  Debbie  plant. 
Because  of  its  location  and 
age,  it  would  be  considered 
valuable.  It  could  have  been 
moved. 

A  White  Oak  by  the  Annex 
parking  lot  was  mined  be- 
cause the  telephone  company 
dug  a  ditch  two  feet  from  the 
tree  and  maimed  the  root 
system.  The  ditch  didn't  have 
to  go  there. 

A  stabilizer  pod  of  a  back- 
hoe  was  planted  beside  a  tree. 
The  damaged  roots  are  now 
open  and  more  vulnerable  to 
insects  and  disease. 

Possibly  the  saddest  inci- 
dence of  this  tree  murder 
happened  to  the  largest  ever- 
green on  the  campus,  in  fact, 
one  of  the  largest  evergreens 
in  the  area. 

A  40-foot  Norway  Spruce  by 
the  excavation  sight  of  the 
Fine  Arts  Complex  was  cut 
down.  It  was  not  in  the 
architects  plans  to  have  it  cut 


and  could  have  graced  the 
area  for  some  time.  This  tree 
was  felled  the  end  of  Novem- 
ber and  still  lies,  untouched. 

When  talking  to  construc- 
tion workers  at  the  sight,  they 
said  that  possibly  in  a  year  or 
more  the  tree  would  have  had 
to  go,  but  not  now.  It  was 
apparently  cut  early  so  it  could 
be  used  as  the  College  Christ- 
mas tree,  only  to  find  out — too 
late—  that  it  was  too  large  and 
brittle.  The  limbs  were 
broken  when  it  hit  the  ground. 

I  then  questioned  the 
Grounds  Department  Director 
Charles  Lacey  and  he  con- 
firmed that  it  could  have  been 
successfully  moved  when  the 

appropriate  time  came.    Pre-       A   tree  was  pushed   back

A  moment  of  carelessness 
ends  a  lifetime  of  growth. 


Absence  Committee  Explains  Policies 


Why  does  the  Absence 
Committee  exist?  Why  not  let 
the  teachers  excuse  the  ab- 
sences? 

The  Absence  Committee 
was  set  up  primarily  to  take 
the  burden  off  the  teachers 
(especially  those  with  large 
classes),  establish  a  central- 
ized absence  information  cen- 
ter for  academic  counseling 
and  establish  consistent  ra- 
tionale for  excusing  absences. 
Wouldn't  it  be  more  per- 
,  sonalfor  the  teachers  to  -work 
with  their  own  students? 

The  Absence  Committee 
system  is  definitely  imper- 
sonal. The  Committee  con- 
siders large  numbers  of  ex- 
cuse requests  each  week. 
Rigid  -restrictions  have  been 
established  so  that  the  Com- 
mittee attains  a  certain  level  of 
consistency.  These  guidelines 
are  for  the  general  populous  of 
the  student  body.'  There  are 
times  extenuating 
stances  that  might' 
exception  to  the  rule. 

What  is  the  rationale  fot 
excusing  or  not  excusing  ab- 


The  Student  Handbook 
states,  "Excused  absences  are 
recognized  as  absences  incur- 
red because  of  illness,  au- 
thori^d  school  trips  or  emer- 
gencies beyond  the  student's 
control." 

What  does  a  student  do  if 
he's  sick? 

"An  excuse  due  to  illness 
may  not  be  granted  unless  the 
student  has  visited  the  Health 
Service  prior  to  the  absence." 
But  this  does  not  apply  to 
village  students. 

Are  doctor  and  dentist  ap- 
pointments excusable? 

Doctor  and  dentist  appoint- 
ments must  be  made  outside 
of  class  time.  Time  must  be 
allowed  for  the  usual  waiting 
and  fravel  outside 
of  class  appointments.  Med- 
ical and  dental  emergendes 
will  be  excused  if  the  student 
attaches  a  note  stating  such 
from  his 

should  include  date  and 
of  visit. 

What  provisions  should  a 
student  make  when  he  knows 
in  advance  that  he's  going  to 


The  Absence  Committee 
does  not  generally  involve 
itself  with  these  kinds  of 
situations.  The  student  is 
advised  to  go  to  the  teacher, 
explain  his  situation  and  make 
proper  arrangements. 

What  are  the  absence 
guidelines  concerning  wed- 
dings and  funerals? 

Wedding  absences  are 
allowed  for  travel,  if  the 
student  is  part  of  the  wedding 
party  or  if  the  bride  or  groom 
is  pari  of  his  immediate 
family.       Absences    incurred 


because  of  a  funeral

the  discretion  of  the  Absence 
Committee. 

/  got  a  phone  call  just  before 
class  from    my    mom.        My 
absence   was   not   excused. 
How  come? 

The  caller  should  have  been 
informed  of  your  class  ap- 
pointment. The  student 
should  then  make  arrange- 
ments to  call  back  later. 

How  long  after  the  absence 
does  a  student  have  to  turn  in 
his  excuse? 

Absences  incurred  during 
any  week  must  be  responded 


to  by  12  p.m.  the  following 
Monday. 

What  should  I  do  when  I 
want  to  appeal  a  decision  of 
the  Absence  Committee? 

The  student  has  the  choice 
of  either  going  to  the  teacher 
and  personally  explaining  his 
situation  and  the  teacher  at  his 
own  discretion,  may  overrule 
any  decision  of  the  Absence 
Committee  or  resubmitting  his 
absence  slip  with  more  com- 
plete detail  to  the  Absence 
Committee.  Absences  are 
often  times  unexcused  be- 
cause of  lack  of  information.

the  Faculty  Senate  in  their  last 
meeting,  Jan.  14,  and  will  be 
presented  to  the  Board  of 
Trustees  in  March. 

The  position  was  maae 
available  to  Spears  when  pre- 
sent Assistant  Business  Man- 
ager Bruce  Stepanski  moved 
to  become  director  of  Student 
Accounts  and  Loans  in  the 
Student  Finance  Office. 

The  associate  business 
manager's  job  will  involve 
being  in  charge  of  WSMC- 
FM.  grounds,  the  nursery, 
service,  purchasing  and  mar- 
ried student  housing,  accord- 
ing to  Business  Manager 
Richard  Reiner. 

Spears  came  to  SMC  in  1961 
and  enrolled  as  an  accounting 


major.  In  1963,  he  became  the 
Student  Finance  dkector  for 
four  years  then  moved  to  the 
position  as  College  Manager. 
Spears  became  Dean  of  Stu- 
dents in  1970  and  during  his 
six  years  as  dean,  received  a 
Masters  in  Business  Adminis- 
tration from  Middle  Tennes- 
see State  University. 
"I  have  enjoyed  these  last 


four  years  in  Records  and 
Admissions,  but  I  want  to  get 
back  into  my  field  of  study," 
said  Spears.  I  have  worked 
with  a  nice  group  and  will  miss 
the  close  student  contact  but 
look  forward  to  th 
manager  position." 

No  decisions  have  been 
made  as  to  who  will  fill  the 
vacated  position.

editorial 

If  you  think  you  have  troubles,  pity  the  poor  editor.  If  he 
attends  a  meeting,  he's  being  nosey;  if  he  doesn't  he  isn't 
interested.  If  he  writes  an  in-depth  story,  it's  too  long;  if  he 
condenses  one,  it's  incomplete.  If  he  quotes  you  verbatim  and 
you  decide  that  wasn't  what  you  meant  to  say,  you  call  him  inept 
or  untruthful  or  both.  If  he  asks  for  advice,  he's  incompetent;  if 
he  doesn't  he's  a  know-it-all.  If  he  makes  a  mistake,  he  hears 
about  it  for  weeks;  if  he  doesn't  he  never  hears  about  it.  If  he 
erpresses  an  opinion,  he  wants  to  run  the  show;  if  he  doesn't, 
he  lacks  guts.  If  he  takes  sides  on  an  issue,  he  is  prejudiced;  if 
he  doesn't  he  is  a  coward.  If  he  misspells  your  name,  you  never 
forget  it;  if  he  doesn't,  you  don't  read  the  story. 


Opinion  Poster  Brightens  a  Blah  Hall  in  Talge 


Dear  Editor: 

Walking  down  the  barren 
corridors  of  Talge  Hall  day 
after  day  can  become  quite 
boring  and  monotonous — 
bori^  arid  ftibnotonous  except 
for  one  bright  spot,  at  least  on 
my  hall.  On  one  particular, 
'boring,  brown  door  of  A-wing 
is  usually  some  "want-your- 
opinion"  poster  that  catches 
the  eyes  and  responses  of  the 
passer-by. 


Last  semester,  for  example, 
they  had  on  a  clean  sheet  of 
paper  the  words,  "What  do 
you  think  of  this  man?" 
Above  the  page  was  a  picture 
of  Khomeini.  Attached  to  the 
door  was  a  pencil.  I  wouldn't 
be  allowed  to  print  what  was 
on  the  page,  but  it  was 
interesting. 

Later  they  had  a  sign-up 
sheet  for  men  to  join  the

Last  week's  Accent  incorrectly  read  that  $70  had  been 
raised  by  the  10  Adventist  Colleges  in  North  America  for 
the  refugees  in  Cambodia.  This  should  have  read  $70,000 
were  raised  by  the  10  colleges.

And  last  week,  as  I  began 
my  pitiful  pittOL-patfer  down 
the  hall,  ther£  was  a  new  sheet 
posted  to  tKe'door.  I  gratefuly 
stopped  and  gazed  at  the 
question.  "Tired  of  being  a 
'Southern  Missionary?'  If  you 
were  in  charge,  what  would 
rOi/ rename  the  college?" 

Below  is  an  abridged 
version  of  what  was  on  the 
page:  Collegedale  College; 
Donald  Duck  University; 
Cnittel  College  or  Knittel 
Kollege;  Brinsmead  Univer- 
sity; Andrews  University  (but 
it  was  scratched  out).  The

Academy  (whoever  Mel  may 
be);  Moccasin  Bend  Univer- 
sity; Southern  Institute  of 
Mental  Development; 

(Khomeini  College  was  dis- 
cussed by  a  few  standing 
around  but  was  never  actually 
written  down). 

Though  these  ideas  will 
probably  be  passed  on  to  the 
Board  of  Trustees  and  some 
great  fame  and  glory  might 
come  my  way,  i  must  humbly 
admit  that  the  underlying 
cause  of  this  letter  is  to  thank 
Steve  and  Joe  for  allowing  the 
men  of  A-wing  to  write  down 
some  opinions  on  their  terrible 
trek  through  the  blah  halls  of 


Morning  Worship  in  Talge  Hall  Missed 


Dear  Editor: 

This  letter  c 
Resolution  that  has  been  taken 
in  relation  to  the  worship 
schedule.  As  a  resident  of 
Talge  Hall,  it  is  my  duty  to 
bring  attention  to  this  new 
worship  schedule. 

First  it  seems  that  there  are 
not  enough  reasons  for  the 
action  that  has  been  taken. 
I'm  not  against  the  time  the 
worships  were  scheduled,  7 
and  10  p.m.,  but  against  the 
celled    morning    worships 


What  is  the  problem  and 
the  reasons  for  the  cancelled 
worships?  Can  it  be  that  the 
deans  don't  want  to  wake  a 
little  earlier  to  officiate  the 
worship,  or  was  it  that  not 
enough  students  attended  the 
worships?  I  have  been  consis- 
tently attending  these  wor- 
ships, and  I  don't  think  that 


student  directed  the  worship. 
His  name  is  Kenneth  Wise- 
man and  he  did  a  real  good 

job.  He  shared  with  us  a 
personal  experience,  and  even 
though  it  was  short,  it  surely 
was  very  inspiring.    My  ques- 


theo

Besides,  do  not  the  Scrip- 
tures say  that  where  there  £ 


1  the 


of 


matter  probably  from  a  dif- 
ferent point  of  view.  Wouldn't 
it  be  nice  to  start  the  day  with 
God?  I  personally  like  to  go  to 
worships  with  a  free  spirit  and 
good  will,  not  with  a  spirit  of 
obligation.  I  was  very  happy 
with  the  morning  worships.  It 
was  a  refreshing  experience, 
just  the  simple  thought  of 
knowing  that  one  could  begin 
the  school  day  with  Christ. 


Jesus  congregated,  the  Spirit 
of  the  Lord  will  be  there,  too? 
If  there  is  any  problem 
concerning  the  morning  wor- 
ships, or  if  they  need  per- 
sonnel to  organize  them,  why 
not  ask  the  students  to  direct 
the  worships?  1  know  there 
are  quite  a  few  students  that 
are  capable  of  doing  this. 

For  example,  last  week  a 


the  morning  worships?  For 
me  it  is  very  meaningful  and  1 
know  for  others,  too. 

My  suggestion  for  the  deans 
and  for  the  SA  officers  is  to 
reconsider  such  an  action  and 
to  think  it  over  before  doing 
something  that  may  seem 
unimportant  but  is  not.  Please 
reconsider  such  action.  As  1 
stated  before.  I'm  not  against 
the  night  worships  but  against 
the  cancellation  of  the  morn- 
ing worships.

Do  you  think  our  Olympians 
should  defy  a  boycott  by  Carter 
and  participate  in  the  summer 
games? 

TomBaez,  senior,  theology,  Orlando.  Fla.:  Many  say  politics 
and  atheletics  shouldn't  be  combined,  but  this  is  difficult  when 
it  comes  to  the  Olympics.  I  feel  the  atheletes  shouldn't  go  if  we 
boycott  the  Olympics. 

PaulJansen,  sophomore,  biology,  Redlands,  Calif.:  First  off, 
I  think  it's  dumb  for  Carter  to  boycott  the  Olympics.  But  if  he 
does,  then  they  shouldn't  go.  Now — do  you  want  my  opinion  of 
Carter? 

Tedd  Webster,  junior,  physical  education,  Collegedale, 
Tenn.:  If  Russia  keeps  acting  the  way  it  is,  1  think  we  should 
boycott  them. 


Matt  Nafie,  senior,  behavioral  science,  Taftville.  Conn.: 
Someone  who's  worked  that  hard  ought  to  be  able  to  participate 
in  the  Olympics.  There  are  other  ways  of  getting  Russian  troops 
out  of  Afghanistan.  I'd  go  along  with  having  the  site  of  the 
games  moved  somewhere  else. 


Brenda  Brusett,   sophomore,  nursing.  Redding,   Calif.: 
don't  think  he  has  a  right  to  keep  them  from  going.    They'\ 
worked  and  trained  very  hard  so  why  do  they  have  to  suffei 
Let  Carter  do  something  else  to  get  back  at  the  Russians. 


Gary  Street,  freshman,  paramedic,  Baltimore,  Md. 
nitely,  but  on  the  condition  that  they  hold  the  Olympi 
somewhere  else.  At  the  Olympics,  Russia  would  just  try 
show  how  great  its  country  is  while  on  the  other  hand  they' 
invading  other 


Defi- 


Steve  Blanco,  sophomore,  biology,  Washington,  D.C.:  I  think 
it  should  be  left  up  to  the  participants.  NBC  will  lose  a  lot  of 
money  because  they're  covering  it  if  it's  boycotted.  It  would  be 
more  effective  if  many  countries  participated  in  the  boycott.

CK  Expansion  JSot  Feasible 


n  Melissa  Smith 

The  feasibility  study,  begun 
in  October  by  Selmon  T. 
Franklin  and  Associates  to 
determine  the  possibility  of 
expanding  the  Campus  Kitch- 
en, has  been  completed. 

"We  don't  like  the  news," 
said  Business  Manager  Rich- 
ard Reiner,  "but  the  expan- 
sion is  not  feasible." 

The  total  cost  of  the  expan- 
sion, including  new  equip- 
ment, moving  the  laundry  and 
enlarging  the  CK,  would  be 
$300,000.  Even  over  30  years, 
the  rents  from  the  operations 
would    not  justify    the    large 

"The  sales  would  have  to 


almost  triple  and  prices  go  up 
to  make  it  work,"  Reiner 
added.  "If  the  cafeteria  were 
at  capacity  and  there  were 
enough  trade  other  than  stu- 
dents, we  could  go  ahead,  but 
there  is  not  sutticient  com- 
munity patronage  and  so  not  a 
real  need  for  more  area." 

The  College  Plaza  will  be    | 
paid  for  in  six  years  and  the 
revenues  from  that  without  a 
mortgage  note  to  pay  will  help 
keep  tuition  down.

From  Blantyre,  Malawi  in 
Africa  to  CoIIegedale,  Ten-

medicine  so  she  can  return

Chakuamba,  the  16-year-old

to  begin  a  four-year  trek 
towards  her  bachelor  of 
science  degree  at  Southern

Her  father,  the  Honorable 
Gwanda  Chakuamba,  the  cab-

culture,  has  great  hopes  for 
Kwafa  and  her  younger 
brother  and  sister. 

To  Kwafa,  the  most  out- 
standing aspect  of  the  United 
States  is  "the  high 
buildings."  There  aren't  that

Kwafa's  family  decided  that 
the  United  States  would  offer 
the  finest  training  in  the  world 
for  her.  She  chose  SMC  for 
her  undergraduate  training 
because  of  friends,  former 
students  and  the  quality  of 
education  she  can  obtain  here. 
Both  her  parents  are  Seventh- 
day  Adventists  and  her  father 
attended  an  SDA  college  in 
Rhodesia.  Kwafa  intends  to 
stay  in  America  to  study  for 
her  medical  degree,  also. 

After  receiving  her  doc- 
torate, Kwafa's  ultimate  goal 
is  to  return  to  Malawi  as  a 
physician— something  that  is 
desperately  needed  there,  and 
she  wants  to  be  a  part  of  her 
country's  future. 

"Everyone  is  nice  here  and 
I  really  like  my  classes, ' ' 
Kwafa  said.  "The  only  trouble 
I  seem  to  be  having  is  under- 
standing   the     southern     ac-

plain. 

I  will  be  coming  home  this 
weekend.  Some  of  my  friends 
will  be  coming  along,  too,  so 
you  will  be  able  to  meet  them. 
We  won't  be  in  till  late  Friday 
night  because  we  are  going  to

Sabbath  morning,  don't  wor-

Classes  Held 
Careers  Day 

Careers  Day  will  be  held 
next  Thursday,  Jan,  31.  The 
format  will  differ  from  those  in 
the  previous  years — classes 
will  be  cancelled  from  11  a.m. 
to  3  p.m. 

"We  are  cancelling  classes 
so  all  students  will  have  an 
opportunity  to  attend,"  ex- 
plained Dean  of  Students 
Melvin  Campbell. 

After  a  short  talk  by  Dr. 
Campbell,  the  students  will  be 
dismissed  to  wander  around 
the  gymnasium.  At  present  21 
institufions  will  have  booths 
set  up  in  the  gymnasium. 
These  institutions  represent  ' 
local  and  national  companies, 
and  local  conferences. 

Dr.  Campbell  explained  that 
a  hospital  hires  more  than 
nurses  and  medical  techni- 
cians and  "hope  that  the 
students  would  not  overlook 
the  opportunity  to  work  for 
one  of  them." 


Following  lunch  two  short 
classes  will  be  given.  One 
class  will  be  conducted  on 
writing  a  resume  and  the  other 
class  will  be  how  to  conduct 
yourself  during  an  interview. 
Each  class  will  last  approxi- 
mately 25  minutes.

The  Coliegedale  phone

to  be  commended  on  one 
count — it  strengthens  the

Marilyn     Sliger,     director,    Cont. 

explained  that  at  the  present 
time  there  are  always  two 
students  to  supervise  the 
children.  If  the  openings  are 
not  filled  by  the  end  of  nest 
week,  some  of  the  students 
will  have  to  be  let  go. 

Sliger  stated  that  one  of  the 
reasons  the  parents  like  send- 
ing their  children  to  the  Cen- 
ter is  because  there  is  more 
than  one  supervisor  at  all 
times.  By  having  two  super- 
visors, some  of  the  children 
can  play  outside  while  the 
others  remain  indoors.  If  one 
child  was  sick,  it  would  mean 
that  all  the  children  would 
have  to  stay  in  because  only 
one  supervisor  would  be  there 
to  •vafch  them  all. 

At  the  present  time  they  are 
averaging  10  children  a  day. 

They  are  presently  making 
arrangements  to  take  two 
year-olds.  Sliger  stated  that 
the  price  will  still  be  the  same 
for  them  because  she  is  willing 
to  put  in  the  extra  time,  how- 
ever the  parents  mast  supply 
the  diapers. 
Other  airangementa  include 


application  from  the  Student 
Finance  Office  in  Wright  Hall. 
After  they  receive  their  eligi- 
bility report,  they  should  bring 
it  to  the  Student  Finance 
Office.  It  is  also  necessary  to 
see  Nelda  Reid   and   sign    a 


voucher  so  that  the  money  can 
be  credited  to  their  account. 

Those  students  who  have 
already  received  a  Basic  Grant 
should  also  stop  by  the  office, 
as  they  may  be  eligible  for 
other  grants.

_Sports 


In  the  early  games  of  the 
basketball  series,  Prusia's 
team  has  risen  steadily  to  the 
top    of   their    league.       The 

portediy  '  'doesn't  look  like 
much  on  paper,"  clicks  to- 
gether like  a  well-oiled 
machine  and  works  the  ball 
methodically  to  score  with 
smooth  accuracy.  Prusia  and 
Creamer  led  the  team,  scoring 
23  and  26  points  respectively, 


96-73  victory  over  Rathbun. 
In  a  rather  low-scoring  game 
with  a  more  even  point- 
spread,  Creamer  shot  13 
points  and  Diminich  10  as  the 
team  pulled  away  from  Shultz 
in  the  final  quarter  for  a  48-41 
victory  which  retained  their 
undefeated  status  for  a  record 
of  2-0.

game,  defeating  Beyer  40-33.

pomts  in  the  first  half,  and 
West  shot  12  in  the  second  for 
an  overall  score  of  14  points. 

Next  Prusia  defeated  Shultz 
48-41,  but  the  team  made  him 
work  for  the  victory.  Running^

Cramped  Parking  Problems  Plague  Students 


editorial 

The  ena  or  tne  month  isn't  one  of  the  most  popular  times. 
While  for  some  it  means  another  paycheck  or  a  new  day-by-day 
calendar,  a  number  of  women  seem  to  find  their  cafeteria  bills 
under  the  $50  minimum. 

The  cafeteria  charges  each  dorm  student  S50  each  full  month 
of  school  in  order  to  guarantee  a  monthly  operating  budget.  The 
reasoning  behind  this  is  logical  because  Mr.  Evans  and  his 
workers  need  to  know  approximately  how  much  they  can  spend 
on  food  and  what  its  price  should  be.  However  I  find  it  very 
unfair  to  the  slender  beauties  in  Thatcher  Hall. 

At  the  end  of  each  month  it  seems  that  the  women  are 
lending  their  ID  cards  to  friends  (or  brothers  if  they're  lucky). 
Others  rush  down  to  the  Campus  Kitchen  to  stock  up  on  forzen 
pizzas,  loaves  of  bread,  apples  and  anything  else  that  can 
possibly  raise  the  monthly  food  bill  to  the  magic  fifty. 

Most  of  the  time  the  food  which  was  bought  to  reach  the 
minimum  is  wasted  because  it  rots  in  the  room.  Why  waste  food 
just  to  reach  the  minimum? 

Some  feel  that  the  students  would  eat  more  off  campus  as 
such  places  as  Taco  Bell  if  there  was  not  a  monthly  minimum. 
But  how  long  would  that  last  when  it  is  di^icult  to  withdraw 
money  on  one's  account? 

Glancing  at  some  the  the  meal  receipts  that  find  their  way  to 
the  cafeteria  floor,  there  seems  to  be  quite  a  few  that  have 
already  reached  SIOO.  Therefore  it  appears  that  if  the  minimum 
|vas  discarded  that  most  of  the  students  would  still  eat  the  same.

Dear  Editor: 

After  receiving  another 
SMC  parking  ticket.  I  decided 
to  address  myself  to  a  problem 
1  have  wanted  to  write  about 
for  three  vears.  But.  because 
of  a  full  schedule  I  haven't 
found  the  time  to  sit  and 
address  it.  Finally  the  time 
has  come  when  something 
must  be  said. 

I  refer  to  the  disastrous 
parking  problem  here  on  the 
SMC  campus.  The  realization 
that  a  problem  exists  here  is 
no  secret:  I  beHeve  that  most 
of  our  students  and  staff  are 
well  aware  of  this.  Why  has 
nothing  been  done  to  remedy 
this?  If  anything,  we  have 
moved  backward  instead  of 
forward    toward    finding    an

A  prime  example  I  will 
present  is  the  construction  of 
the  Thatcher  annex  with  its 
miniature  parking  area.  Sure, 
we  like  it  to  look  pretty  and 
trim,  but  can  we  justify  creat- 
ing only  57  parking  spaces  in 
the  new  annex  lot,  when  250 
students  are  housed  in  the 
annex?  Does  the  aesthetic 
benefit  gained  from  this  or- 
namental rock  and  shrubbery 

the  lack  of  precious  parking 
spaces  for  our  Thatcher  annex 
ladies?  Of  course.  I  realize 
that  all  students  do  not  own  or 
operate  automobiles.  But  1 
have  heard  plenty  of  com- 
plaints from  female  students 
having  to  park  in  the  gymna- 
sium parking  lot  and  walk 
across    to   Thatcher    Hall    on 


dark  nights.  The  annex  lot 
could  have  been  enlarged  to 
park  many  more  cars  if  sen- 
sible planning  would  have 
gone  behind  constructing  it. 

I  do  realize,  though,  that  the 
major  problem  lies  in  village 
student  parking.  Most  stu- 
dents are  so  burdened  with 
homework  and  projects  that 
they  don't  have  time  to  drive 
to  campus  15  minutes  early 
each  morning  to  avoid  driving 
around  campus  looking  for  a 
parking  spot. 

This  creates  a  great  incon- 
venience for  the  student  who. 
although  he  planned  plenty  of 
time  to  get  to  class  on  time, 
now  finds  himself  walking  into 
class  late  due  to  this  trip 
around  campus  looking  for  a 
parking  spot  and  finally  end- 
ing up  walking  from  the  far 
comer  of  the  campus  to  his 

The  ratio  of  parking  spaces 
allotted  to  faculty  and  stu- 
dents versus  the  number  of 
faculty  and  students  here  at 
SMC  is  very  poorly  and  un- 
fairiy  distributed.  Almost 
without  exception  when  I 
enter  a  parking  area  for  both 
student  and  faculty  parking 
designations,  I  find  several 
empty  spaces  in  the  faculty 
area,  while  the  student  park- 
ing is  completely  full!  If  these 
faculty  spaces  are  not  used, 
some  should  be  designated  for 
student  use! 

An  example  is  the  lot 
entrance  south  of  Thatcher 
annex  entrance,  leading  past 
Herin  Hall,  library,  and  to  the 


cafeteria.  This  area  contains 
40  spaces  specified  for  village 
and  Thatcher  Hall  students 
combined  use.  While  we  have 
approximately  2,000  students 
attending  SMC,  we  have  only 
about  200  faculty,  administra- 
tion and  workers.  Shouldn't 
more  space  be  provided  for 
this  large  number  of  students? 
Only  this  morning  as  I  arrived 
on  campus  for  my  8  o'clock 
class  in  the  library,  1  found 
every  one  of  the  40  spaces  for 
students  filled,  while  the  29 
faculty  spaces,  there  were  13 
spaces  in  a  row  emptv!  Some 
of  these  extra  facultv  spaces 
should  be  redesigned  for 
student  use    instead  of  being 


I  will  refer  a 
munity  colleges  o 
which,  though  they  have  a 
rather  large  number  of  stu- 
dents, do  not  have  a  parking 
problem.  They  simply  con- 
struct large  open  parking  lots 
adequate  for  the  parking 
needs  of  both  students  and 
staff. 

There  is  enough  open, 
vacant  land  here  on  the  SMC 
campus  that  could  greatly 
increase  our  parking  capacity 
if  used  in  this  way.  With  a  fail 
1979  enrollment  of  over  2,000 
students,  we  must  realize  the 
need  for  improved  and  added 
parking  facilities,  and  not  only 
realize  it,  but  do  something

are  within  walking  distance  of 
450  to  700  families  in  low-cost 
housing  areas.  One  of  the 
programs  used  is  Health  Pro- 
motion Activities  Center 
(HPAC).  Once  a  week,  stu- 
dents visit  several  families 
and  do  surveys  on  what  the 
community  needs  most  at  the 
time.  Health  education  and 
screen  programs  are  devel- 
oped from  these  surveys. 

Also  on  TuesdayTTfour  to 
five  students  go  into  rural 
counties  visiting  Senior 
Neighbor  Centers  where  they 
do  HPACs,  which  consist  of 
health  talks,  health  education 
movies,  and  diabetes  and

of  the  program  is  sponsored 
by  Southern  Missionary 
College,  the  Teimessee  Health 
Department,  Tennessee  Val- 
ley Authority,  and  Counseling 
of  Aging. 

Every  other  Thursday,  the 
students  make  mental  health 
visits.  Each  student  is  assign- 
ed a  patient  for  the  semester 
who  they  visit  once  a  week^at 
either  the  Chattanooga 
Psychiatric  Clinic  or  Joseph

On  alternate  Thursdays 
they  will  be  screening  f"r 
scoliosis  (curvature  of  the 
spine)  among  the  2,100  sixth 
graders  in  Chattanooga. 

The  nursing  department 
feels  that  the  main  advantages 
of  this  program  art  the  better 
use  of  student's  and  instruc- 
tor's time,  the  opportunity  for 
them  to  work  closer  together 
and  for  students  to  have  a 
more  active  involvement  role 
rather  than  observation. 


"It  is  a  program

Dorothy    Giacomozzi.       ' 
feel  it  will  have  positive 
vantages  for  both  the  stud- 
and  patients."

ISurse  Saves  Wounded   World] 


(Dedicated  to  all  the  strug- 
gling nursing  majors  at  SMC) 

It  all  began  one  balmy 
summer  day  while  He  was  on 
a  walk.  As  He  came  over  the 
rise  of  a  small  hill,  the  song 
died  from  His  lips.  There  at 
His  feet  lay  a  wounded  bird — 
a  robin.  He  bent  down  and 
examined  its  mutilated  wing, 
and  then  with  great  tender- 
ness carried  it  home  and 
began  nursing  it  back  to 
health.  As  He  watched  the 
wing  mend.  He  began  to 
realize  that  He  had  a  strange 
gift  for  healing,  and  the  dream 
was    born — He    would    be    a 


When  He  was  still  quite 
young  He  and  His  family  took 
a  long  journey  to  the  big  citJ^ 
There  He  watched  the  strange 
ritual  of  their  religion.  As  He 
stood  in  the  temple  day  after 
day  the  dream  began  to  ex- 
pand in  His  mind  until  one  day 
the  dream  exploded.  As  He 
watched  the  bleeding  lamb  He 
realized  His  destiny — He  was 
to  be  the  nurse  for  the  ills  of 
all  mankind,  by  His  own 
\voiinds^ie  would  heal  the 
wounds  of  the  world. 

In  the  education  of  every 
nurse  comes  the  day  when 
they  receive  their  cap  and  then 
that  much-celebrated    stripe.

unsual  way.  As  He  knelt  on 
the  riverbank,  a  dove,  as  white 
as  the  whitest  of  nursing  caps, 
descended  and  lit  upon  His 
head.  Then,  the  One  who 
officiated  at  the  service  pro- 
nounced the  blessing  upon  His 
chosen  profession. 


What  a  grand  i 
pinning  in  che  life  of  a  nurse. 
When  the  nurse  receives  that 
pin  it  is  recognized  as  a  mark 
of  new  authority.  His  mother 
was  the  first  to  notice.  He 
wore  it  to  a  wedding.  As  she 
watched  Him  she  recognized 
in  His  countenance  that  mark 
of  new  authority  and  the  small 
group  of  men  following  Him 
and  calling  Him  "Master" 
^nly  confirmed  her  suspicions. 

If  a  nurse  decides  to  con- 
tinue his  or  her  education,  the 
day  comes  when  a  specialty 
must  be  chosen.  He  chose 
obstetrics  (OB).  His  was  a 
rather  exotic  brand  of  the 
science.  To  one  full  grown 
man  He  spoke  these  eccentric 
words:  "You  must  be  born 
again."       From    later    docu- 


ments we  find  that  He  offici- 
ated at  the  birth  of  at  least  one 
of  His  brothers — who  was 
older  than  Himself!  He  had 
an  eScLllent  recoro.  and  when 
He  came  to  the  end  of  His 
internship  He  could  say,  "I 
only  lost  one!"  {cf.  John 
17:12). 

All  His  life  He  had  been 
searching  for  the  cure.  One 
day  He  found  it — a  terrible 
cure  it  was  indeed.  He 
realized  the  full  meaning  of 
1  healing  the  world  by  His  own 
wounds.  But  what  a  glorious 
shout  it  was  when  He  could 
proclaim,  "It  is  finished!  The 
cure  is  complete!" 

heard  the  saying, 
nurse  always  a 
nurse."  He's  still  a  nurse 
today.  Today  He's  respon- 
sible for  dispensing  the  cure. 
He  is  the  med  nurse  for  the 
universe.  He     especially 

enjoys  special  care  nursing, 
and  He'll  care  for  you,  and 
treat  you,  and  dispense  the 
cure  to  you  as  if  He  didn't 
have  another  patient  in  the 
whole  world.

A  Christian  Look  at  the  State  of  Affairs 


In  response  to  Dickerhoff' s 
"Draft  Dodgers,"  i  would  like 
to  sav  a  few  words. 

1  don't  doubt  that  the  guys 
of  Talge  Hall  have  been 
concerned  over  the  possible 
reestablishment  of  the  draft, 
but  I  would  find  it  very 
disturbing  if  1  thought  this 
reflected  the  attitude  of  the 
majority  of  the  men  of  Talge. 

I     am     sure     this     article 


humorous  light  on  the  subject 
but  as  a  "mature"  Christian 
college,  I  feel  we  need  to  look 
at  the  nation's  state  of  affairs 
more  seriously.  Whether  or 
not  we  agree  with  the  way  our 
country's  foreign  affairs  are 
being  handled,  we  should  still 
be  supportive  of  the  leaders. 
If  we  choose  to  live  in  a 
country  of  freedom,  we  should 
be  proud  to  be  called,  if 
necessary,  to  serve  it. 

"  'Everyone     must     submit 
himself     to     the     governing 


authorities,  for  there  is  no 
authority  except  that  which 
God  has  established.  The 
authorities  that  exist  have 
been  established  by  God. 
Consequently,  he  who  rebels 
against  the  authority  is  rebel- 
ling against  what  God  has 
instituted,  and  those  who  do 
so  will  bring  judgement  on 
themselves."  Romans  13:1,2 
NIV

Changes  Made  in  Student  Finance  Office 


DMelissa  Smith 

The  Student  Finance  Office 
has  made  some  organizational 
and  office  changes  recently. 

Bruce  Stepanske,   formerly 


Ihe 


busi 


ager,  is  now  the  director  of 
student  accounts  and  in 
chargeof  loan  collections.  His 
secretary,  Nelda  Reid,  will 
handle  disbu: 
supervise  student 

Working  with  Stepanske  are 
Cindy  McCaughan  who  han- 
dles   the    Federally    Insured 


Student  Loans  (FISL)  which 
are  the  bank  loans  and  Agnes 
Merchant  who  works  with  the 
National  Direct  Student  Loans 
O^SL). 

At  this  time,  there  is  no 
assistant  financial  aid  direc- 
tor. Donna  Myers,  who  works 
with  the  assistant  director,  is 
an  aid  and  labor  counselor. 
Laure!  Wells  are  Diane  Proffit 
and  Vanessa  Henson.  They 
iselor  appointments 


and  do  the  general  secretarial 
work  of  the  office. 

If  students  have  questions 
about  their  accounts,  they 
should  call  4322  or  4355,  and  if 
they  need  a  counselor  or 
information  on  financial  aid, 
the  numbers  are  4321  and 
4331. 

During  Christmas 


the  engineering  department 
built  lour  windows  along  the 
hall  outside  Student  Finance. 
Two  windows  are  for  student 

signments  and  one  for  student 
aid  disbursements. 

The  windows  will  make  it 
possible  for  students  to  get 
help  faster  and  take  the  con- 


gestion out  of  the  r 
The  student  files  are  also  now 
more  private  and  accessible  to 
the  counselors. 

"We  are  happy  with  the 
office  arrangement,"  com- 
mented Proffit.  "It  is  working 
out  well  and  will  help  keep

Point  System   Will  Solve  Parking  Problems 


There's  a  very  serious 
problem  here  at  SMC,  and  it 
has  to  deal  with  everyone.  I'm 
talking  about  the  problem  of 
having  1,500  registered  cars 
and  only  79  parking  spaces  on 
campus.  The  ratio  of  cars  to 
parking  spaces  has  always 
been  high,  but  with  the  price 
of  gas,  the  students  can't 
afford  to  stay  out  all  night. 
Now  they  are  getting  in  before 
toomcheck,  and  they  need  a 
space  to  park. 

There's  nothing  morally 
wrong  with  wanting  to  park 
your  car,  but  when  it  comes  to 
using  sumeone  else's  spatre, 
be  ready  to  defend  yourself.

Nursing  Vans  to  Load   at  Herin   Hall 


DTricia  Smith     " 

The  nursing  students  are 
loading  the  early  morning 
vans  for  hospital  labs  at  Herin 
Hall  rather  than  in  front  of 
Wright  Hail. 

In  a  letter  written  by  Pres- 
ident Frank  Knittel  to  the 
nursing  department,  he  stated 
that  due  to  the  congestion  of 
the  main  circle  in  the  morning, 
the  loading  of  vans  will  be 
moved  to  the  nursing  depart- 
ment parking  lot.

that  request  to  the  local  Ad-

that  is         ^unnecessary. 

When  asked  what  was  meant, 
Dr.  Knittel  stated  that  it  was 
not  moving  traffic  he  was 
referring  to.  The  problem  was 
caused  by  nursing  students 
and  instructors  who  lived  in 
the  village,  parking  in  front  of 
Wright  Hall  in  administra- 
tion's lot.  This  caused  the 
other  faculty  to  have  to  find 
somewhere  else  to  park. 

"Students     eat     brealrfast 
here  in  the  morning  and  then 


walk  to  many  different  places 
all  over  campus,"  said  Dr. 
Anittel.  "We  feel  the  nurses 
need  not  be  any  different." 

Until  this  year,  the  students 
have  loaded  in  fi-ont  of  Wright 
Hall  between  6  and  7:30  a.m. 
During  the  winter  months,  it 
was  opened  early  for  them  to

the  new  policy,  they  are 
required  to  walk  to  the  nursing

They  look  over  the  available

The  Art   of  Love  Transcends  All  Other  Arts 


If  I  have  learned  Greek  with 
all  its  varied  conjugations  or 
the  anatomy  and  physiology  of 
the  human  body  and  can 
explain  this  in  highly  esoteric 
language,  but  fail  to  make 
people  feel  comfortable  in  my 
presence  and  happy  to  be 
around  me,  then  what  has  my 
education  done  for  me?  It  only 
sounds  like  gibberish  to  those 
about  me  and  makes  them  feel 
inferior.

Those  who  love  don't  mind 
repeating  things  several  times 
or  grow  weary  when  someone 
is  a  bit  late.  The  one  who 
loves  listens  carefully  to  the 
daily  concerns,  failures,  and 
victories  of  a  roommate  before 
he  shares  his  own. 


Those  who  love  don't  insist 

on  the  superiority  of  their  own 

opinion.    They  don't  keep  a 

burden    running  balance  of  deposits 

and  withdrawals  in  the  bank  of

Les  Musselwhite 

for 

SA  President 


As  a  candidate  for  the  office  of  president  of  the 
Student  Association,  the  only  thing  I  can  offer  or  promise 
is  that  I  will  work  with  and  cooperate  with  the  other 
elected  Student  Association  officers  in  a  productive 
manner  to  enhance  the  programs  and  activities  on  this 
campus. 

Organization  is  the  key  to  a  successful  SA  and  this 
would  be  something  I  would  strive  for.  It  would  be  my 
intent  to  be  enthusiastic,  and  I  would  hope  that  this 
enthusiasm  would  increase  the  motivation  of  the  other 
officers.  I  intend  to  fully  support  all  of  the  newly  elected 
officers  to  the  best  of  my  ability. 

The  various  programs  which  the  SA  offers  should  be  of 
the  highest  quality  possible.  Our  Social  Activities 
Director  and  our  Student  Services  Director  have  done  a 
very  good  job  this  year  with  their  programs,  and  we  look 
forward  to  more  success  next  year.  Of  course,  there  are 
times  when  our^oals  are  not  realized,  but  the  harder  one 
strives  for  these  goals,  the  more  attainable  they  become. 
This  is  where  I  intend  to  try  harder;  to  make  our 
programs  higher  in  quality,  both  spiritually  and  socially. 

I  thank  you  for  your  previous  support  of  the  Student 
Association,  and  1  ask  for  your  vote  of  confidence  on 
February  13  and  14. 


My  basic  objectives  are;  ■ 

1.  To  see  that  you  get  the  necessary 
physical,  mental,  moral,  social  and  spirit- 
ual Ingredients  of  education  while  attend- 
ing SMC. 

2.  To  inflate  SA  program  quality,  not 
the  tuition. 

3.  To  present  the  services  available 
academically  and  socially. 

I'll  see  that  these  goals  set,  are  met. 

Sincerely, 
Carol  Hanscom 


Social  Activities  Director 


Hi!  I'm  Sam  Hamlin.  To  me 
Social  Activities  means  fun  and 
excitement,  meeting  new  people  or 
attaching  names  with  faces,  and 
getting  you  involved  in  your  SA. 

Support  me  in  the  upcoming 
elections  and  I'll  do  my  best  to 
make  next  year  your  t)est  ever. 


Chuck  Jenkins 

How's  your  social  life? 
Are  you  low  on  cash  this 
weekend,  and  you  just 
can't  afford  to  ask  some- 
one out  for  a  date?  Or 
you  just  don't  have  a  car 
and  the  College's  week- 
end program  calls  for  a 
saxophone  quartet? 

Welcome  to  the  club. 

As  a  candidate  for  Social  Activities  Director,  I'd  like  to 
give  you  more  dating  opportunities  and  activities  than 
ever  before.  Here  are  some  of  my  ideas  which  may 
interest  you:  1.  A  Saturday  night  film  alternative  to  the 
College's  "Artist  Adventure  Series."  2.  For  those 
without  cars  but  need  to  shop,  free  van  service  to 
Northgate  and  Eastgate  malls  each  Friday  on  a  rotating 
basis.  3.  A  monthly  published  schedule  of  programs, 
events  and  activities  so  that  you  can  plan  your  week  and 
weekends  ahead  of  time  (and  maybe  ask  out  that  girl 
you've  been  wanting  to  date).  Best  of  all,  each  of  these 
programs  and  services  cost  you  NOTHING. 

I  want  to  serve  YOU,  and  attempt  to  provide  QUALITY 
programs  over  quantity  ones.  No  more  "Gus  the  Kicking 
Mule."  Of  course,  I  don't  have  the  market  covered  on  all 
the  ideas,  and  I  would  certainly  appreciate  your 
suggestions  and  comments. 

In  closing,  I'd  like  to  ask  you  again,  "How's  your 
social  life  now.  and  what  would  YOU  like  it  to  be  like  in

1'°' Social  Activities  Director,  1980-81 


If  I  am  re-elected  to  the  office  of  Student  Services  ' 
Director  I  have  but  one  promise  to  make.  That  promise  -a. 
is  a  promise  to  work.  To  work  with  my  fellow  SA  S.' 
officers  and  to  work  to  make  certain  that  Student  '^ 
Services  is  a  service  and  contribution  to  the  Student 
Association  which  is  you  the  student  body. 

I  will  work  to  continue  the  programs  which  are  bemg 
carried  on  this  year.  Some  of  these  are  the  SA  Cookie 
Breaks,  Friday  noon  films.  Let's  Make  a  Deal  game  and 
an  Oldywed  game.  I  also  plan  to  continue  providing 
optional  entertainment  when  possible  such  as  the  films 
"Mr,  Smith  Goes  to  Washington"  and  "The  Absent 
Minded  Professor,"  I  will  also  work  on  providing  films 
and  other  forms  of  entertainment  on  weeknights.  These  s 
to  work  on  next  year. 

However  the  most  important  aspect  of  the  responsibility  of  Student  Services  is  the  aspect 
of  working  together.  I  will  work  to  make  sure  that  Student  Services  carries  its  share  of  the 
load  and  that  it  can  be  counted  on  whenever  needed.  It  is  my  goal  to  make  sure  that  the 
Student  Services  link  in  the  SA  chain  is  a  strong  link  and  a  link  that  can  always  be  depended 
on  to  serve  you  the  student.

Hi! 

I  am  Dan.  Since  my  sophomore  year  in  academy  I 
have  been  involved  in  various  leadership  positions.

and  with  people  in  organizing  and  carrying  out 
programs  designed  to  be  of  benefit  to  the  students.  It 
is  because  of  these  past  experiences  that  I  have 
decided  to  run  for  the  position  of  Student  Services

Southern  Missionary  College  should  produce 
annual  that  rates  among  the  finest  of  all  colleges, 
whether  in  or  out  of  our  denominational  system.  An 
annual  is  needed  that  possesses  the  present  day  trends 
of  contemporary  graphics,  and  the  creative  photography 
blended  with  unique  design.  Assuming  the  responsi- 
bilities of  editor  requires  long  hours,  hard  work  and  a 
base  of  experience  upon  which  to  build.  Because  of  my 
past  and  present  experience,  I  feel  qualified  and  would 
like  the  opportunity  to  publish  this  book. 

I  would  consider  it  a  privilege  to  publish  this  annual 
and  would  appreciate  your  consideration  and  support.

Many  depend  on  information  in  the  Joker  which  is 
especially  useful  during  the  first  few  weeks  of  school. 
Therefore,  accuracy,  quality  and  speed  are  of  utmost 
importance.  I  have  had  experience  as  academy  yearbook 
business  manager,  typesetter,  assistant  layout  editor 
and  have  worked  on  the  production  of  the  '79-'80  Joker 
supplement. 

I  plan  to  follow  the  basic  format  set  this  year  including 
these  features: 

*A  more  complete  and  concise  abbreviation  index 
♦Inclusion  of  the  Orlando  Campus  nursing  students 
with  the  regular  sections  of  men  and  women 
•A  section  including  student  missionaries 
♦Calendar  of  events  and  local  restaurant  guide 
These  items  and  more  can  be  a  reality  with  your 
support. 


Sincerely, 
Russell  Gilbert 


Joker  Editor 


Lisa  Kelley 


In  reviewing  the  responsibilities  of  a  Joker  editor,  I 
feel  the  most  important  ones  are:  designing  an  attractive 
cover,  including  helpful  information  with  quality  repro- 
ductions of  the  student's  pictures,  and  of  course,  getttng 
the  Joker  out  as  soon  as  possible. 

I  know  that  I  will  find  no  problem  in  meeting  all  these 
requirements,  plus  more.  I  already  have  an  idea  for  the 
cover  design  and  I  want  to  use  the  convenient  SVi  x  11 
inch  size  incorporated  this  year.  Information  will  be 
added  that  was  not  in  this  Joker.  The  College  Press  will 
ie  contracted  to  do  the  printing  and  John  Durichek, 
Masters,  Graphic  Arts,  has  agreed  to  give  advice 
whenever  needed.  I  feel  that  accuracy  is  more  important 
than  speed,  so  I  suggest  that  we  take  a  little  longer  and 
reduce  errors.  But  that  in  no  way  means  we'll  take  more 
than  a  month,  it  will  be  more  like  IVi  to  3  weeks  after 
registration.  However,  if  you  prefer  speed  to  accuracy, 
let  me  know.  I  will  welcome  any  ideas  ( 
because,  after  all,  it  is  YOUR  Joker.

10  -  THE  SOUTHERN  ACCENT  Thursday,  February  7,  1980 


Sport; 

Prusia  Clinches   Lead  in  AA  League  Action 


Prusia  leaped  back  into  first 
place  in  the  Men's  AA  League 
this  week,  recovering  from  a 
shattering  62-54  upset  by 
Beyer  last  week.  Prusia 
gained  two  this  week  to  rise. 
again,  as  cream  of  the  crop. 

The  team  first  defeated 
Nafie,  60-57,  in  a  well-fought 
game  which  edged  them  into 
first  place.  Dragging  in  the 
early  part  of  the  game,  Prusia 
watched  Nafie  score  10  points 
before  making  a  move.  The 
team  was  still  trailing  at  12 
points  to  Nafie's  23  at  the  end 
of  the  first  quarter  but  came 
back  to  top  Nafie's  29  points 
with  30  at  the  end  of  the  half, 
and  then  to  clinch  the  game 
with  a  three  point  lead. 

Prusia  shot  a  50  per  cent 
average  to  put  1 7  points  on  the 
board — including  a  smashing 
slam-dunk  in  the  last  few 
minutes  of  the  game — and  led 
the  team  in  rebounds; 
Creamer  and  Dlminich  added 
14  points  each. 

Prusia  then  widened  his 
lead  with  a  84-67  victory  over 
Rathbun.  Again  the  team 
came  from  behind,  this  time 
still  trailing  55-57  by  the  end 
of  the  third  quarter.  Rough 
fourth  quarter  action  gave  the 
team  13  points  from  the  foul 
line  alone;  an  additional  14 
points  from  the  field  clinched 
the  victory  for  Prusia. 

Prusia  again  led  the  team's 
scoring,  shooting  12  for  21 
fiom  the  field  for  an  awesome 
24  points.  Creamer  and 
Diminich  each  added  19  points 
and  Leonard  also  scored  in  the 
double  figures  with  11  points. 
Prusia  and  Creamer  grabbed 
the  record  for  rebounds. 

As  a  whole,  the  team's 
statistics  show  a  strong  con- 
sistency and  accuracy  thus  far 
in  the  season,  with  a  record  for 
the  highest  percentages  from 
both  the  field  and  the  line, 
plus  the  second  highest  in 
total  points. 

Nafie  tasted  defeat  as  they 
lost  not  only  the  game  but  the 
first-place  position  to  Prusia 
this  week.  Schultz,  West  and 
Nafie  all  scored  in  the  double 
figures  with  18,  16  and  14 
points,  respectively  as  they 
tried  to  hold  their  lead.  The 
team's  shooting  percentages 
have  not  been  brilliant,  but 
they  hold  the  record  for  the 
lowest  number  of  points  al- 
lowed their  opponents  this 
season.  This  strongly  defen- 
sive team  is  not  out  of  the 
running  yet. 

Rathbun  moved  up  to  third 
place  this  week,  adding  both 
one  win  and  one  loss.  The 
team  first  defeated  Beyer 
71-66  in  an  exciting,  neck-and- 
neck  game.  Rathbun  sunk  29 
points,   while  Lingerfelt  and 


holds  the  records  for 
getting  the  ball  in  the  air  with 
the  highest  number  of  free 
-throws  attempted  and  made 
field  goals  attempted .  and 
made,  and  the  highest  number 
of  total  points  made.  How- 
ever, they  also  have  the 
dubious  distinction  of  allowing 
the  most  points  to  their  op- 
ponents this  season.  With  a 
little  more  defensive  action, 
such  as  getting  more  people 
under  the  boards  to  rebound 
wild  shots,  this  team  could  be 
doubly  formidable. 

Beckwith  also  moved  up  in 
the  order  this  week  with  a 
58-49  victory  over  Beyer  for 
their  second  win  of  the  season. 
Beckwith,  Preston  and  Mosley 
shot  17,  14  and  11  points, 
respectively,  in  that  satisfying 


Price  also  scored  in  the  double 
figures  with  18  and  12  points 
respectively.  Price  also  made 
a  name  for  himself  with  his 
almost-violent  rebounding, 
while  Maddock  and  Lingerfelt 
fed  the  team's  score  with 
same  brilliant  assists. 

Rathbun's  match  againt 
Prusia  was  less  of  a  success. 
Leading  the  game  at  the  end 
of  the  third  quarter,  the  team 


buckled  under  as  they  wei., 
called  for  a  game  total  of  21 
fouls,  including  2  technicals. 
Rathbun  again  led  the  team's 
scoring  with  25  points,  while 
Price  shone  on  the  rebounds 
and  assists.  Maddock  and 
Price  chalked  up  14  and  12 
points,  respectively.  Linger- 
felt put  in  10,  including  sev- 
eral brilliant  long  bombs  and  a 
fast  break  or  two.    The  team

Beyer  suffered  two  losses 
this  week,  witn  an  accom- 
panying drop  two  notches  in 
the  order.  While  their  games 
weren't  quite  as  encouraging 
as  their  impressive  62-54  up- 
set over  Prusia  last  week,  the 
team  had  some  definite  high- 
lights. In  their  first  game 
against  Rathbun,  Botimer  hit 
21  points  as  well  as  the  record 
for  feeding  a  voluminous 
number  of  assists  to  other 
players.  Ware,  leading  in 
rebounds  and  shooting  15 
points,  and  Velasco  and

points,  respectively,  in  their 
game  against  Beckwith.  This 
team  definitely  has  some

The 

added  yet  another  bit  of 
weight  to  their  record  with  a 
46-37  victory  over  the  Faculty 
this  week.  Stephens  sunk  13 
of  those  points,  and  Rivera 
also  scored  in  the  double 
figures  with  12  points.  The 
team  as  a  whole  put  in  11  or  20 


free  throws  which  gave  them 
the  edge  over  the  Faculty. 

Wold  is  firmly  holding  his 
second-place  slot,  and  with  his 
two  wins  added  this  week,  he 
is  in  a  position  to  begin  eying 
first.  The  team  narrowly 
defeated  Sweeney,  trailing 
most  of  the  first  half  and  then 
showing  a  score  of  27  to

beginning  of  the  second  half. 
Wold  came  back  to  squeeze  by 
Sweeney  with  a  final  score  of 
49-47.  High  scorers  for  the 
team  were  Coston  with  13 
points,  and  Wold  with  10. 

Wold  next  shot  by  Thomp- 
son, 72-65.  Wold  led  his  team 
with  22  points,  and  Coston  put 
in  14.  The  team  shot  a  50  per 
C2nt  average  from  the  foul  line 
for  8  points. 

Freck  moved  up  a  notch  in 
the  order  this  week  and  raised 
their  game  percentage  25  per 
cent  with  two  wins.  The  first 
of  these  was  a  59-48  victory 
over  Thompson.  Johnston, 
with  18  points,  and  Kittle, 
with  16,  led  the  scoring  action 
in  that  game.  A  46-42  upset 
over    Dias    gave    Freck     his 


second  win.  Leach  racked  up 
18  of  those  points;  Freck  and 
Cherne  added  8  each. 

Besides  his  loss  to  Freck, 
Dias  was  overtaken  by  the 
Faculty  in  a  48-35  defeat 
which  dropped  him  to  fourth 
place.  The  60  per  cent 
average  the  team  displayed 
from  the  foul  line  was  nothing 
to  complain  about,  however. 

Thompson,  Sweeney  and 
the  Faculty  share  a  record  of 
2-3.  Thompson's  defeats  by 
Freck  and  the  Faculty  gave 
him  two  losses  this  week. 
Bright  spots  for  the  team 
included  Thomson  shooting  18 
and  Greenlee  16  against 
Freck.  Gudmestad      and 

Greenlee  racked  up  17  each 
against  the  Faculty,  and  a 
team  average  of  7  for  13  from 


the  foul  line. 

Sweeney  buckled  under  to 
Wold,  49-47.  at  the  begmning 
of  the  week  but  came  back  to 
snatch  a  57-48  victory  from 
Webster.  Langenberg  nearly 
wore  out  the  hoop  shooting  an 
astounding  26  points.  New- 
myer  and  Culpepper  each 
added  12  more  points. 

The  Faculty  also  forced  a 
1-1  situation  this  week,  first 
defeating  Dias  in  a  48-35 
upset.  Evans  led  the  Faculty, 
scoring  11  points.  Kamieneski 
and  Schlisner  weren't  far  be- 
hind with  10  and  8  points 
respectively.  A  46-37  defeat 
by  Dowell  gave  them  their 
loss.  Evans,  shooting  12,  and 
Garver  with  10,  led  the  scoring 
for  the  team.

Knecht  added  two  wins  last 
week.  On  Monday  her  team 
put  it  to  Steger  to  end  the 
game  with  a  40-21  score.  Mc- 
Kee's  16  points  helped  put 
Knecht  out  front. 

The  next  evening,  Hartsock 
helped  Knecht  stomp  Butter- 
more  with  her  40  points. 
Hartsock  scored  over  half  of 
the  team's  71  points.  That 
game  ended  with  a  score  of 
71-21. 

Dortch  and  Buttermore  each 
received  an  easy  win  when 
McLeod  forfeited  both  of  her 
games  last  week. 

Ratledge  won  her  game 
with  Douglas'  9  points  against 
Kryger.  The  low  scoring 
game  ended  with  Ratledge  24 
and  Kryger  15. 

Steger  also  gained  a  victory 
over  Kryger  in  last  week's 
games.  Steger  scored  11 
points  for  her  team  to  help 
bring  their  standing  to  two 
wins  on  three  losses.  The  final 
score  in  that  game  was  25  to 
13.

Beitz"  Team  Heads  Up  B 
League  Came  Action 


DCorrine  Robertson 

Beitz  still  remained  unde- 
feated after  his  game  against 
Kuhlman  last  week.  Evans 
sunk  20  big  points  for  Beitz  in 
that  game,  making  the  final 
score  65  to  39. 

However  things  didn't  look 
well  for  Beitz  in  his  game  with 
Cummings.  Cummings'  team 
started  with  a  lead  over  Beitz 
but  then  lost  it  because  of 
Gteve's  15  points  scored  for 
Beitz.  The  final  score  for  the 
game  was  42-39  after  an 
unexpected  "time  out"  due  to 
the  power  failure. 
_  Beitz  finally  lost  his  first 


game  of  the  season  last 
Thursday  when  King  led 
Slate's  team  to  victory  with  14 
points.  The  final  score  was  51 
to  48. 

In  other  B  League  action, 
Kress  led  his  team  success- 
fully over  Fillman  in  a  44-38 
game. 

Kuhlman's  team  slipped  by 
Slate  as  Martin  led  them  to  a 
victory  with  his  14  points. 
However.  Lemonds  chal- 
lenged Kuhlman  and  stomped 
Kuhlman's  team  in  a  52-36" 
game.  The  high  scorer  for 
Lemonds  was  Rosario,  who 
out  up  19  points.

2  -  THE  SOUTHERN  ACCENT  Thursday,  February  14,  1980      ''''^' 


Time  to  Stop  Making  Excuses  and  Compromises 


editorial 


The  female  population  of  this  college  has  a  great  opportunity 
this  Valentine's  Day,  as  well  as  this  entire  year. 

I  discovered  a  certain  tradition  the  other  day  which  could 
boost  every  unmarried,  dateless  woman's  spirits  from  here  to 
the  edge  of  the  ozone  layer.  During  leap  year,  the  unclaimed 
jewels  have  a  shot  at  a  once-in-a-year  bargam.  and  smce  it  is 
Valentine's  Day.  every  girl  should  take  advantage  of  this  great 
offer.  You  see.  leap  year  enables  all  women  to  ask  for  any 
man's  hand  in  matrimony.  That  in  itself  is  a  great  arrangement 
IF  he  accepts.  But,  that  isn't  the  end  of  it.  If  he  does  refuse,  he 
must  purchase  you  a  silk  dress.  Isn't  that  a  wonderful  custom? 
Udies!  Think  of  the  advantages  of  this  offer.  You  either  get  a 
husband  to  present  to  your  family  or  a  100  per  cent  silk  dress  to 
spice  up  your  spring  wardrobe.  You  get  something  no  matter 
which  way  he  decides. 

The  only  problem  one  might  have  is  if  a  man  accepts  when 
whatyoureally  want  is  the  dress.  I  know — asof  now  I  have  four 
fiances.  But,  I'm  going  to  keep  on  trying  until  I  get  a  dress  out 
of  this  deal. 

Women  of  Thatcher,  here  is  your  big  chance!  Go  for  those 
feUas  and  frocks,  and  Happy  Valentine's  Day!  Oh,  by  the  way, 
does  anybody  out  there  want  to  marry  me? 


Dear  Editor: 

We  all  have  weaknesses, 
and  we  all  become  angry  or 
frustrated.  Sometimes  we  just 
wish  we  could  slam  a  door  in 
the  face  of  whatever  is  causing 
us  so  much  trouble,  and 
maybe  we  do.  Or  maybe  we 
decide  to  be  a  little  more  vocal 
and  we  start  complaining;  we 
say  it's  not  really  a  problem, 
at  least  not  our's.  Besides,  no 
one  is  perfect.  Maybe  we 
should  stop  and  think  about 
this  for  a  moment.  Do  you 
think  that  possibly  we  let 
ourselves  off  the  hook  too 
many  times  for  this  behavior? 

ff  we  claim  to  be  Christians, 
then  we  know  that  no  one  else 
is  responsible  for  our  displays. 
We  have  the  freedom  to 
choose  to  act  for  or  against 
those  things  influencing  us. 
Power  is  always  available  to 
help  us  step  over  the  stum- 


bling blocks.  We  need  to  stop 
making  excuses  and  compro- 
mises for  doing  what  we  know 
is  wrong. 

In  chapels  and  worships, 
instead  of  being  quiet  and 
reverent,  we  act  more  like 
first-graders  waiting  to  be 
dismissed  five  minutes  before 
recess.  We  argue  about  the 
dorm  TV  schedules,  whether 
to  tune  the  channel  to  "Mork 
and  Mindy"  or  "The 
Waltons."  Our  cafeteria  (in  a 
college  with  a  health  message) 
serves  us  food  that  is  either 
oil-saturated  or  sugar-coated. 

We  spend  thousands  of 
dollars  on  new  furniture,  car- 
peting and  equipment, 
millions  for  an  extensive,  new 
fine  arts  complex.  Yes,  we  do 
glow  in  our  progress,  and  we 
are  very  admirable.      We're 


very  generous,  but  mainly  in 
our  own  behalf.  We're  getting 
sickeningly  comfortable.  Do 
we  beg  for  the  world  to  look 
our  way  and  say  "Bravo,"  or 
do  we  long  to  sit  at  the  feet  of 

Our  deficiencies  don't  start 

policies,  that's  just  where  they 
become  evident.  The  problem 
is  rested  in  the  individual— 


the  ' 


We 


ourselves. 

When  are  we  a

hard  took  at  o 
priorities,  time 
spent  and  let 
self-exultation.  1

Dear  SMC: 

Well,  it's  a  wan 
Sunday  morning  ov( 
Bangkok,  Thailand, 
pretty  hot  i 

right  now  It  s  reaiiy  nice,  i 
just  wanted  to  write  a  short 
note,  and  let  y'all  know  I'm 
thinking  of  you. 

Thailand  is  a  beautiful 
country,  and  the  people  are 
really  special.  They  are  so 
warm  and  friendly — it  is  well- 
named  "The  Land  of  Smiles." 
But  it's  also  a  dirty  country 
and  most  of  the  people  are 
what  we  would  call  poor,  but 
it's  their  way  of  life,  and  they 
keep  smiling!  My  students 
are  mostly  Chinese  and  Indian 
as  very  few  Thais  have  a  need 
to  learn  English.  They  (my 
students)  are  planning  to  go  to 
the  US  or  England  to  study, 
which  is  why  they  come  to  us. 
Most  are  quite  wealthy  and 
one  of  my  students  lives  in 
what  could  best  be  called  a 


it  in  spite  of  all  Randy — congratulations  on  a 

that,  they  still  need  the  love  of  great  paper!  George 

Jesus    and    that's   really    my  Graves — thanks  so  much  for 

whole  purpose  here — to  show  sending  the  play!    Suzanne —

Wrongways  Need  Exit  Arrows 


Dear  Editor: 

I  have  a  request  to  make, 
and  that  is  to  have  BIG  arrows 
painted  on  the  road  (exit) 
ing    the    dorms    and    Wright 


Hall.       It 


that 


people  don't  know  that  when 
you  are  in  the  left-hand  lane 
that  means  you  will  be  turning 
left  and  those  in  the  right- 
hand  land  should  turn  right, 
NOT  LEFT. 

In  a  couple  of  instances  1 
would  be  turning  left  and  all  of 
a  sudden  someone  in  the  right 
lane  would  also  turn  left  at  the 


same  time  and  could  have 
caused  a  car  accident  if  1 
hadn't  been  watching  care- 
fully. 

Is  there  any  way  arrows 
could  be  painted  on  the  exit 
soon?  I  am  sure  it  v.ould  be 
well  worth  the  expe.ise  of 
painting  two  arrows  on  the 
road  for  those  who  haven't 
yet  learned  the  rules  for 
driving.  I  know  many  of  us 
would  be  grateful  jf  this  is

Combined  Minorities  Emphasis  Suggested 


Dear  Editor: 

We  would  like  to  comment 
on  Black  History  Week.  We 
respect  the  feelings  of  those 
behind  it,  but  we  are  still 
opposed  to  the  idea. 

We  do  not  feel  that  any  one 
group  should  be  singled  out 
for  a  special  week.  We  realize 
the  Blacks  have  been  virtually 
forgotten  when  it  comes  to 
American  History,  but  so  have 
all  the  other  minorities.  Why 
should  this  group  be  singled 
out? 

Today,     the    focus    is    on 

equaliiy.      Those    who    have 

^   been  forgotten,   abused   and 


discriminated      against      ; 
screaming  for  recognition. 


These  movements  have  gone 
too  far.  Everyone  is  aware  of 
the  problems  that  have  existed 
and  still  exist  concerning  pre- 
judice and  discrimination  of 
minorities,  but  how  can  we 
truly  forget  our  differences 
and  look  on  each  other  as 
equals  as  long  as  someone  is 
saying,  '  'Look  at  me,  I'm 
Black  (or  Puerto  Rican,  female 
or  Indian,  etc.)  and  I  deserve 
special  recognition  and  treat- 
ment." As  long  a^  we  band 
together  in  groups,  misunder- 


standing and   prejudices   are 
going  to  continue. 

if  we  need  to  have  a  week 
with  special  emphasis,  why 
don't  we  have  a  goodwill  week 
or  a  cultural  week  empha- 
sizing the  good  points  of  each 
ot  the  ditterent  cultures  re- 
presented at  SMC  instead  of 
focusing  on  one  particular 
group  and  bringing  up  past 
grievances— this  would  be 
much  more  interesting  and 
beneficial.

Black  History  Week  Underscores  Differences       StrOOt      iDOOt 


Dear  Editor: 

I  have  no  objections  if 
Blacks  on  this  campus  wish  to 
become  more  aware  of  their 
history  and  place  in  modern 
society,  but  students  already 
as  aware  of  the  Black  situation 
as  they  wish  to  be  should  not 
be  forced  to  attend  chapels 
devoted  to  the  subject.  Ten 
years  ago  a  Black  Awareness 
Week  would  have  been  valu- 
able. Since  then,  however, 
Americans    have    been    bom- 


barded with  the  Black  story, 
most  memorably  in  the  TV 
series  "Roots,"  and  most 
have  reached  saturation  point. 
Nor  do  I  think  it  proper  to 
dedicate  one  week  towards 
awareness  of  a  single  minority 
when  so  many  are  represented 
here.  This  is  both  unfair  and 
illogical.  A  better  idea  is  a 
Minorities  Week.  Still,  why, 
on  a  Christian  campus,  where 
everyone  is  considered  equal. 


should  one  group  be  distin- 
guished from  another  in  this 
manner?  As  Christians,  we  all 
constitute  a  minority.  A  Black 
Awareness  Week,  or  anything 
else  like  it.  underscores  the 
differences  between  "us"  and 
"them."  and  does  not  pro- 
duce the  unity  that  we  need  to 
reach  the  truly  neglected  por- 
tion   of  the    population — lost

VALENTINES  DAY    its  history  and  customs 


by  Dana  West  and   Melissa 
Smith 

Will  you  be  my  valentine?  It  is  hearts  day  once  again. 
Grade-sciioolers  will  cut  and  paste  with  red  construction 
paper  and  doilies,  high-schoolers  will  shyly  present  candy 
samplers  and  Peanuts  valentines,  collegiates  will  FTD 
roses  to  sweethearts,  and  husbands  will  send  their 
secretaries  out  for  a  last  moment,  gilded  card  for  their 
wives. 

How  did  all  this  card,  flower  and  candy  swapping  come 
about?  According  to  legend  a  Roman  priest,  Saint 
Valentine,  was  beheaded  on  Feb.  14,  270  AD,  because  he 
refused  to  renounce  Christianity.  That  day  was  also 
known  as  the  day  birds  begin  their  mating  season.  TTie 
saint's  name  soon  became  associated  with  love  and 
romance. 

TTie  valentine  card  tradition  began  in  1415  when  a 
Frenchman,  Charles  due  d'Orleans,  w4io  was  imprisoned 


originated. 

Roman  and  English  lasses  were  more  coy.  They  sent 
their  secret  loves  annonymous  gifts  on  February  14.  If  the 
male  seemed  intrigued,  the  girl  would  reveal  her  identity 
and  hopefully  win  his  heart. 

Another  English  tradition  held  that  a  girl  would  dream 
of  her  future  husband  if  she  placed  a  sprig  of  bay  leaves 
sprinl<led  with  rose  water  under  her  pillow.  To  be  sure 
the  charm  worked,  a  maiden  might  boil  an  egg,  remove 
the  yolk  and  fill  it  with  salt.  Before  going  to  sleep,  she 
must  eat  the  egg,  shell  and  all  without  speaking  or 


in  the  tower  of  London,  passed  the  time  by  composing 
rhymed  love  letters  to  his  wife.  The  practice  caught  on  in 
Europe,  with  people  decorating  the  notes  with  gilt  paper, 
hearts  and  lace.  The  English  settlers  brought  the  custom 
to  this  country. 

Through  the  years,  various  valentine  traditions  have 
kept  Cupid  busy.  Girls  in  medieval  Sicily  believed  that 
the  first  toy  they  saw  on  Valentine's  was  destined  to 
become  their  sweetheart.  The  maidens  of  the  English 
countryside  thought  that  if  they  saw  a  hen  and  a  rooster 
outside  the  door  on  the  morning  of  Valentine's  Day,  they 
would  marry  within  the  year. 

During  the  Middle  Ages,  young  women  of  Europe 
would  place  their  names  in  a  box  and  the  young  men 
would  draw  one  name  apiece.  Each  male  would  then  wear 
the  name  of  his  valentine  on  his  sleeve  for  a  year.  This  is 
where  the  expression  "to  wear  your  heart  on  your  sleeve' ' 


drinking  anything  afterward. 

The  lucky  lasses  of  the  twentieth  century  no  longer  fret 
over  Valentine  traditions.  The  women  of  Thatcher  Hall 
are  greeted  by  lobbies  not  unlike  a  florist  shop,  and  mail 
boxes  holding  pink  and  vrfiite  cards  from  male  admirers. 
The  men  of  SMC  receive  heart  cakes  and  the  latest  pride 
of  the  Hallmark  valentine  line  from  their  favorite  lady. 

Ahhhh,  Valentines  Day  .  .  .  when  love  is  rampant, 
romance  is  the  rage  and  hearts  are  high  on  the  wish  list.

Birds  and  Bad  Granola  Satisfy  Two  Appetites 


After  a  recent,  refreshing

Outside  my  window  hungry

Satire 


Reagan  Expected  to  Win  by  Hostages'  Vote 


The  Southern  Accent  this 
year  did  not  endorse  candi- 
dates for  the  Student  Associa- 
tion elections  held  this  week. 
So.  I've  decided  to  pick,  not 
endorse,  the  winners  in  each 
race,  I  will  give  the  pro's  and 
con's  of  each  candidate  and 
the  point  spread. 


Steven  dickerhoff 

I'll  have  to  admit,  like  most 
everyone  else,  1  didn't  read 
many  of  the  platforms  of  the 
candidates,  but  we  all  know 
they  don't  count  for  many 
votes  anyway.  The  way  to  pick 
the  winners  is  to  look  for  what 
the    voters    look    for    in     a 


Joker  Editor:  This  is  goin_ 
to  be  one  of  the  closer  races. 
Russell  Gilbert  and  Lisa 
Ketley  both  have  a  good  public 
appearance,  but  I  have  to  go 
with  Lisa,  because  she  looks  a 
lot  better  than  Russell— take 
her  56. 


The  Southern  Accent  Edi- 
tor: Melissa  and  Dana  hav/° 
double  the  ideas,  but  Randy 
has    double    the    experience. 


And  besides  he  comes  through 
with  my  check  every  month. 
Since  this  contest  is  too  close 
to  home,  it  is  too  dose  to  call. 


Southern  Memories  Editor: 

Her  name  might  not  be  the 
only  thing  original  about  her, 
but  Lezlee  Caine  is  going  to 
have  to  raise  a  lot  more  than 
that  to  beat  Ronn  Kelly.  Take 
Ronn  by  87. 
Student  Services  Director: 


Student  Services  needs  some- 
body who  knows  what  they  are 
doing.  Van  Bledsoe  is  going 
for  re-election,  and  Dan  Kittel 
has  loo  many  qualifications  to 
know  what's  happening.  Be- 
sides. Van  is  on  my  basketball 
team.  I'll  give  it  to  Van  by  a 
basket  (2  points). 

Social  Activities  Director: 
Sam  Hamlin  draws  the  best 
Tweedy  Bird  on  campus. 
Chuck  Jenkins  has  the  right 
idea  about  the  Artist  Adven- 
ture Series.  But  Darryl 
Starkey  has  a  deeper  voice — 
Darrel  by  sn  octave. 

Vice-president:  Everyone 
knows  the  vice-president 
doesn't  do  a  thing,  so  the 
winner  of  this  race  will  be  the 
person  who  can  carry  the  P.E. 
majors'  vote,  since  everybody 


knows  they  don't  do  a  thing. 
Carol  Hanscom  scored  very 
well  on  her  ACT  test  scores, 
but  Roger  Burke  didn't  quite 
do  as  well.  With  this  in  mind. 
the  P.E.  vote  wilt  go  to  Roger, 
because  they  will  be  able  to 
identify  with  him  more.  Take 
Roger  by  a  composite  score  of 
less  than  12. 

President:  Since  nobody  is 
running  for  president,  I'll 
pick  the  winner  of  our  national 
Presidential  campaign  in 
November.  Carter  h^s  shown 
he  can  get  tough  at  times,  but 
this  hostage  situation  is  get- 
ting ridiculous.  Reagan  may 
be  old.  but  he  knows  when  it's 
time  to  stop  letting  a  little 
country  push  us  around.  Rea- 
gan, by  the  votes  of  the  50 
hostages.

Nafie  maintained  his  second

the  team  froze  during  the  third

Schultz  came  back  in  the

week,  Dowell 's  undefeated 
record  was  smashed  by 
second-ranked  Wold.  Dowell 
first  put  away  Dias  50-47, 
coming  from  behind  with  17  to 
Dias'  22  at  the  half.  Rivera 
clinched  that  game  scoring  19 
points,  while  Lacy  and  Jansen 
put  in  9  and  8  points,  respec- 
tively. Dowell  then  buckled 
under  to  Wold  59-63.  The 
team  again  lagged  at  the  half 
with  28  points  to  Wold's  31 
but  didn't  quite  pull  it  off  in 
the  final  moments  of  the 
game.  Rivera     shot     an 

astounding  game,  sinking  15 


field  goals  and  1  free  throw  for 
31  very  impressive  points. 
Tuuri  was  the  next-highest 
scorer  for  the  team   with   8 

Wold  is  still  hot  on  Dowell's 
heels,  at  only  half  a  game 
behind  the  first  place  position. 
A  disappointing  39-45  loss  to 
the  Faculty  shut  off  their 
hopes  for  a  first-place  tie  this 
week.  Wold  led  the  game 
21-13  at  the  half,  but  with  only 
5  players  the  team  ran  out  of 
steam  in  the  second  half.  A 
total  of  20  team  fouls,  which 
game  the  Faculty  13  points  in 
free  throws,  buried  the  team. 
Wold  led  his  team's  scoring 
with  18  points,  Coston  hit  9. 
Later  in  the  team's  hopes 
Wold  again  led  his  team  with 
22  points,  while  Starkey,  Cain 
and  Coston  also  scored  in  the 
double  figures  with  14,  10, 
and  again   10  points  respec- 

Freck  held  on  to  his  third- 
place  position  this  week  with  a 
satisfying  80-37  win  over 
Webster.  Freck  led  his  team 
to  victory,  scoring  20  of  those 
points,  but  his  team  (including 
Johnston  with  18  points,  Are- 
llano with  16  and  Leach  with 
12)  backed  him  all  the  way. 
The  team  as  a  whole  shot  a 
notable  100  per  cent  from  the 


line  for  4  points. 

The  Faculty's  45-39  upset 
over  Wold  pushed  them  up  2 
notches  in  the  order  this  week. 
Evans  put  in  18  points  and 
Garver  added  U;  the  team 
shot  65  per  cent  from  the  line 
for   13    points   to    clinch    the 

Dias  dropped  a  corres- 
ponding 2  notches  after  a  close 
47-50  defeat  by  Dowell.  The 
team  made  a  good  showing 
with  only  5  players;  Williams, 
Dias  and  Caracciolcr  all  scored 
in  the  double  figures  with  16, 
14  and  12  points  respectively. 

Both  Sweeney  and  Thomson 
hold  last  week's  positions. 
Sweeney  was  out  of  play  this 
week  as  the  Monday  night 
games  were  cancelled, 
Thomson  edged  Webster  66- 
59  to  raise  their  record  to  2-5. 
Thomson  put  23  points  on  the 
board  for  his  team  in  this 
game,  and  Bennett  added  14. 

Webster  hasn't  met  with  a 
whole  lot  of  luck  thus  far  this 
season.  True  t  recedent, 
the  team  added  *.  losses  to 
their  record  this  week.  A  0-7 
record  could  be  discouraging, 
team  captain  Webster  prefers 
to  look  at  it  as  a  "perfect 
record."  A  team  with  an 
attitude  like  that  and  Rick 
Faber's  legs  can't  be  all  bad.

Dortch  and  Knecht 
Dominate   Women's  Action 


In  Women's  League  action 
this  week,  Dortch  played 
Butlermore  in  a  close  game. 
Dortch  led  at  the  half-time  18 
to  16  and  rallied  on  to  finish 
the  game  39-30.  Dortch  led 
the   team   by  putting  up    14 

Dortch  went  on  to  play  her 
opponent  for  first  place — 
Ratledge.  At      half-time 

Ratledge  was  one  point  ahead 
of  Dortch  with  the  score  14  to 
13,  but  a  free  throw  by  Dortch 
made  the  score  even.  With 
only  13  seconds  left  in  the 
game,  Ratledge  lost  the  ball  to 
Dortch    who    made    an     un- 


orthodox  shot  that  won   the 
game  24  to  22. 

Kryger  made  McLeod  work 
for  their  close  win.  Miles  put 
in  10  points  making  the  fmal 
score  24  to  22. 

Ratledge  kept  the  lead  most 
of  the  game  against  McLeod. 
At  half-time  the  score  was  9-ti 
in  Railedge's  favor;  however, 
they  kept  on  top  of  things  to

when  the  Voice  of  Prophecy 
radiobroadcast  celebrates  its 
golden  anniversary  Sunday, 
Feb.  24.  at  4  p.m.  in  the 
Physical  Education  Center, 


The 


center  around    Richards

religious  radiobroadcasting.

Teel,  pianist. 

The  growth  of  radio  itself 


and  Richard's  growing 
try  on  it,  have  paralleled  each 
other.  His  first  introduction  to 
"radio"  came  in  1920  after 
then  U.S.  Senator  Warren  G. 
Harding  invited  him  to  attend 
a  demonstration  of  the   new 

While  conducting  evangel- 
istic crusades  in  southern  and 
central  California  during  the 
late  1920s,  Richards  used 
radio  a  few  times  to  announce 
his    meetings    and 

In  1930.  the  young  evangel- 
ist began  his  continuous 
association  with  radio  when  he 
accepted  an  invitation  to  con- 
duct a  regular  15-minute 
devotional  program  on  station 


KNX  in  Los  Angele 

A  couple  of  years  later, 
while  holding  a  crusade  near 
Los  Angeles,  Richards  was 
challenged  by  two  friends  to 
move  ahead  in  faith  if  he 
believed  God  wanted  him  to 
buy  radio  time  and  expand  his 
preaching  ministry. 

The  following  night,  he 
asked  his  Depression-era 
audience  for  an  indication 
whether  he  should  pay  for 
time  on  radio.  They  respond- 
ed by  donating  jewelry,  spec- 
tacles, and  even  gold-filled 
teeth.  Sale  of  these  items 
resulted  in  $200,  money 
enough  to  buy  13  half-hour 
time  slots  on  station  KGER  in 
Long  Beach.

Dear  Editor: 

The  words  that  I  now  write 
are  not  directed  at  any  indi- 
vidual, nor  am  I  trying  to  hurt 
anyone's  feelings.  Seeing  that 
the  staff  of  this  college  doesn't 
have  the  courage  to  institute  a 
dress  code  that  reflects  the 
standards  of  our  Lord,  the 
time  has  now  come  for  the 
people  to  correct  themselves. 
(Ezek.  33:1-10.  8T  199-203) 

Worldly  fashions  and  the 
acceptance  of  indecent  dress 
have  come  among  us  in  epi- 
demic proportions.  I  refer  to 
the  stick  pins,  broaches,  skirts 
that  are  split  in  the  front  or 
sides,  see-through  blouses 
and  blouses  that  are  un- 
buttoned more  than  just  the 
top  button.  Not  to  forget  the 
buying  of  much  fancy  clothing 
or  other  costly  and  unneces- 
sary items  such  as  a  Cadillac 
or  Corvette.  (Isa.  3:16  -  4:6, 
MH  204-209) 

Is  the  acceptance  and  usage 
of  such  items  pleasing  to  God2 
Surely  YOU  don't  think  sol  It  is 


indecent  for  a  woman  to  wear 
a  dress  that  is  split  or  that  is 
too  tight  across  her  buttocks 
as  to  accent  her  shape.  How 
does  a  see-through  blouse 
glority  God?  (By  see-through, 
I  mean  the  brassier  can  be 
seen.)  If  a  woman's  breasts 
are  considered  to  be,  a  private 
portion  of  her  body,,  one  that 
should  be. covered  from  public 
view,  then  why  would  a  decent 
woman  wear  a  •  see-through 
blouse?    What  would  happen 

through  pants  and  expose  his 
underwear  for  all  to  see? 
Surely  he  would  be  repri- 
manded and  scorned.  (1  Tim. 
2:9-12,  IT  304) 

It  is  the  standard  of  the  SDA 
church  that  our  people  should 
not  wear  jewelry.  The  reason 
is  that  the  wearing  of  jewelry 
is  self-glorifying.  A  person 
cannot  glorify  himself  and  God 
at  the  same  time.  Why  do  you 
therefore  glorify  yourself  apd 
make  yourself  a  stumbling 
block  to  the  body  of  Christ? 
Why  do  you  bring  reproach  on 


the  people  of  God?  We  are 
instructed  in  holiness  in  one 

way,  and  yet  some  ,do  another 
thing,  are  not  those  that  go  in 
strange  ways  hypocrites.  In 
some  places  Adventists  are 
known  as  "the  great  pre- 
tenders"; why  do  you  bring 
this  shame  pn  us  by  making 
vain  excuses  for  the  lusts  of 
your  eyes?  Put  this  and  all 
evil  away  from  ypu  and  do  not 
shame  tfie  God  that  has  given 
you  life.  (2  Chron.  7:14,  3T 
362-368)     ... 

Knowing,  that  the  .world  is 
given  over  to  a  reprobate  mind

it  be  a  standard  among  us

known  as  badges  of  Laodician 
indifference  against  our  Lord

Dear-  Editor: 

I'd  like  tosay  a  few  words 
concerning  your  article  on 
Billie  Jean  Starr's  accident. 

You  stated  in  the  article  that 
the  Hamilton  County  Rescue 
Squad  rescued  Billie  Jean 
after  two  and  one-half  hours  of 
effort  to  reach  her,  yet  no 
credit  was  given  to  the  seven 
friends  which  were  with  her  at 
the  time  of  the  accident.  In 
my  eyes  they  ' 


who,  after  she  fell

more  information  about  the 
incident.  I  learned  that  after 
the  accident  Jeff  Westbrook

Bonnie  Keirsted  and  several 
of  Jodi's  friends  from

Black  History  Week  Defended 


Dear  Editor: 

It  is  obvious  that  the  opin- 
ions expressed  concerning  the 
value  of  Black  History  Week 
by  three  of  the  brethren  went 
to  press  before  the  beginning 
of  Black  History  Week.  Surely 
the  saints  will  now  reconsider 
the  eloquent  speakers,  superb 
music_  and  thought-provoking 
movies  more  than  support  the 
continuance  of  this  observ- 
ance. It  made  people  perform 
a  dying  art — think! 


Two  sisters  asked  last  week, 
"Why  should  blacks  be 
singled  out  over  other  minor- 
ities?" American  society  has 
singled  us  out.  Three- 
hundred  fifty  years  is  a  long 
time.  No  other  ethnic  group 
for  so  long  has  been  excluded 
from  the  mainstream  of 
American  life.  History  shows 
us  that  other  ethnic  groups, 
after  a  time,  eventually  melt  in 


the  melting  pot.  What  maket. 
the  diff^erence? 

We  need  to  face  the  fact 
that  even  in  the  Seventh-day 
Adventist  church  we  have 
serious  problems  in  this  area, 
and  black  Adventists  are  sick 
and  tired  of  it.  Many  students 
were  unaware  of  this  before 
this  week. 

To  use  the  words  of  Brother 
Benway,  we  need  to  be 
"bombarded"  and  "satu- 
rated" with  the  love  of  God. 
We  need  to  stop  pretending 


We  are  truly  sorry  for  yoo 
who  feel  "bombarded"  and 
"saturated"  this  year.  Just 
wait  until  next  year — you'll 
drown! 


Debbie  Bingman  and  Mollis 
Reed  from  SMC  arrived  a  few- 
minutes  later  and  also  helped 
in  carrying  her  up  the  moun- 
tain. It  took  them  about  45 
minutes  to  get  her  to  the  top 
because  of  icy  areas.  About 
ten  minutes  after,  they  had 
gotten  Billie  Jean  up  the  cliff, 
the  Hamilton  Rescue  Squad 
arrived  at  the  scene  of  the 
accident  and  took  over  from 
there. 

Through  this  article,  I'd  like 
to  give  my  appreciation  to  Jeff 
Westbrook,  Jodi  Westbrook, 
Bonnie  Keirsted,  Debbie 
Bingman,  Hoilis  Reed,  and 
Jodi's  three  friends  from

Personal  Commitment  Needed  to  Remove  Feelings  of  Black  Resentment 


Dear  Editor: 

I  was  extremely  moved  by 
Ihe  letters  written  to  you  by 
Mr.  Benway.  Ms.  Longly  and 
Ms.  Michals  in  the  Feb.  14 
issue  of  The  Southern  Accent. 
This  letter  is  written  in  re- 
sponse to  some  of  the  state- 
ments made  in  the  above 
mentioned  letters. 

The  two  chapels  of  Black 
History  and  Culture  Week  did 
not  haVe  to  be  attended.  Sur- 
prised? It  is  a  well  known  fact 
that  each  student  has  four 
chapel  skips  per  semester  and 
by  using  two  of  them  during 
the  week  of  Black  History 
would  have  eliminated  over- 
exposure to  the  black  situa- 
tion. I,  myself;  helped  plan 
the  Worships  in  the  Women's 
Residence  Hall,  and  one  of  our 
goals  in  planning  was  not  just 


to  have  black  faces  on  the 
program  but  to  share  a  style  of 
living  that  is  often  thought  of 
as  something  that  belongs  to 
the  blacks  but  not  Americans 
as  a  whole.  It  was  not  planned 
to  separate,  but  to  enrich. 
White  Americans  say  they  are 
tired  of  hearing  about  the 
misuse  and  abuse  of  the  past. 
Well,  the  news  is  that  black 
Americans  are  tired  of  telling 
the  stories  of  pain  and  agony, 
I  am  saying  that  the  people 
who  wrote  letters  to  the  editor 
last  week  had  not  even  expe- 
rienced one  of  the  meetings 
scheduled  for  last  week  before 
they  were  condemning  the 
whole  week. 

Bombarded  to  the  satura- 
tion point  by  the  media  sys- 
tems with  black  programs?    I 


challenge  one  to  quickly  name  zines  to  television.

the  last  five  years  or  even  their  one    of    the    letters    was    a

**Desk"  Correspondence  frees 
Worker  for  More  Leisure  Time 

Dear  Editor: 

1  wonder  whether  all  Accent 
readers  are  aware  that  one  of 
the  greatest  labor-saving 
devices  of  all  time  already 
seems    well    established    on 


campus. 

It  works  this  way.  John  Doe 
receives  a  note  imprinted 
"From  the  desk  of  Mary 
Stag."  Next,  a  note  imprinted 


"From  the  desk  of  John  Doe" 
goes  back  to  Mary.  Then, 
while  the  two  desks  continue 
to  correspond  with  each  other, 
John  and  Mary  presumably 
can  go  have  a  cold  drink  or  a 
round  of  golf.

Black  History  Week  Focuses  on  Blacks'  Place  in  America 


Dear  Editor: 

I  Jiad  the  opportunity  of 
being  invited ,  to  speak  at 
Thatcher  Hall  worships  on  the 
Wednesday  of  Black  History 
and  Culture  Week.  I  must, 
first  ot  all,  say  "thank  you" 
for  the  hospitality  of  Deans 
Gustin,  Runyan,  Shumate  and 
Somers. 

In  my  visit  on  the  campus, 
and  then  the  reading  of  the 
Feb.  U  issue  oiThe  Southern

disturbed.

My  friends,  I  have  spent 
much  time  and  prayer  in 
composing  this  letter,  and  I 
ueg  of  you,  please  pray  as  you 
read  this  address  to  the  issue 
expressed  in- those  letters. 

".  .  -Students  already  as 
aware  of  the  black  situation  as 
they  wish  to  be  should  not  be 
forced  to  attend  chapels  de- 
voted to  the  subject."  All 
students  are  not  very  aware  of 
black  history.  How  many 
know  that  the  first  man  to  the 
North  Pole  was  a  black  man? 
How  many  know  a  black  man 
Ijy  the  name  of  McCoy  pat-

steam  locomotives?  Also  be- 
fause  of  the  great  confidence

been  placed  in  our  language.

black  man.  The  black  man 
who  discovered  blood  plasma 
and  it's  many  uses  bled  to 
death  after  a  car  accident 
because  he  would  not  be 
attended  to.  How  many  are 
truly  already  aware  of  the 
"black  situation"? 

".  .  .  Americans  have  been 
bombarded  with  the  black 
story.:."  "  Anieric4ris  hiive 
been  bombarded  with  the 
WRONG  black  history.  They 
have  been  shown  that  the 
black  man  is  a  spineless,  cow- 
ardly, weak-kneed  cheat, 
while' the  black  woman  is  a 
strong' willed,  fai,  unmovable

yellow  skin.  1  know  some 
"blacks"  that  do  not  have  skin 
with  even  a  hint  of  dark  hue. 
It  is  quite  true  that  "Roots" 
has  been  the  most  memorable 
stay  of  black  history;  it  was 
such,  because  it  for  the  first 
time  showed  real  blacks,  it 
expressly  showed  what  really 
happened. 

".  .  .  But  how  can  we  truly 
forget  our  differences  and  look 
on  each  other  as  equals  as 
long  as  someone  is  saying, 
"Look  at  me.  I'm  black  (or 
Puerto  Rican,  female  or  In- 
dian,    etc.)     and    I    deserve 


special  recognition  and  treat- 
ment." When  we  say,  "I'm

want     "special 


Please  realize  where  we  have 
come  from  and  treat  us  equal.

"past  grievances."  What  has 
happened  has  happened;  we

rug.  What  if  we  were  to 
sweep  under  the  rug  World 
War  I  and  II.  the  Civil  War.

does  not  necessarily  mean  that

may  treat  me  equally,  yet  you 
may  not  consider  me  equal!

does  not  underscore  the  dif- 
ferences; Praise  GodI  It 
shows  us  tht  we  all  are  going 


to  the  SAME  heaven,  even 
though  we  have  come  from 
unique  and  different  pasts. 
It  shows  us  the  place  that 
blacks  have  had  in  the  history 
of  the  United  States  of  Amer- 
ica and  in  the  Seventh-day 
Adventist  church. 

My  friends,  history  has 
been  written  for  our  learning 
and  enhancement,  we  are  also 
to  learn  from  the  mistakes  of 
the  past.  By  closing  one's 
eyes,  ears  and  mind  to  black 
history,  one  leaves  himself 
open  to  repeat  the  same 
dreadful  and  dastardly  acts 
done  in  yesteryears. 

Lord,  help  each  one  of  us  to 
bring  our  individuality  into  our 
religion — our  love  and  ac- 
ceptance of  our  brother  and 
sister  and  the  acceptance  of 
Jesus  Christ  as  our  Savior. 

Lovingly  and  respectfully  your 
brother  in  Christ.

all  the  minorities  of  this 
country  and  bring  about  good- 
will forthe  restoftheyear.  To 
me  the  essence  of  the  rea- 
soning behind  Black  History 
Week  is  to  help  people  in  the 
majority  realize  that  blacks  are 
a  people  delegated  to  a  week 
of  history  on  the  periphery  of 
our  society,  and  until  we  are 
brought  into  the  mainstream, 
there  will  be  a  need  for 
recognition  at  least  once  each 
year.  No  one  complains  about 
St.  Patricks  Day,  March  of 
Dimes  campaigns,  or  the  Year 
of  the  ChUd  by  the  United 
Nations  but  these  are  all  days, 
weeks,  months  and  years  de- 
voted to  helping  a  minority  be 
improved  and  reach  for  a 
brighter  tomorrow.  The  ex- 
istence of  prejudice  has  not 
been  wiped  out  in  our  country, 
and  as  long  as  blacks  receive 
and  feel  the  vibrations  of  it  in 
our  society,  they  will  strive  to 
do  something  to  make  people 
aware  of  how  they  are  not 
looked  at  as  people  first  but  as 
blacks. 

As  Christians  we  are  not 
exempt  from  feelings  of  pre- 
judice, and  most  people  do  not 
even  realize  that  their  careless 
statements  are  direct  slams  to 
a  people  who  are  striving  to 
overcome  a  history  which  was 
lost  and  even  regarded  as 
worthless.  If  a  movement  is  to 
be  made  which  will  take  away 
the  feelings  of  resentment  on 
both  sides,  the  problem  will 
have  to  be  delt  with  on  an 
individual  stand  to  keep  the 
commandment  of  Matt.  19:19. 
After  all.  blacks  are  now  a 
mobile  people  moving  up  and 
out  into  each  and  every  aspect 
of  the  world.  A  personal 
commitment  is  needed  to  see 
each  man.  woman  and  child  as 
just  that  and  not  as  a  black 
man.  black  woman  or  a  black 
child.  Whites  have  separated 
the  blocks;  the  blacks  did  not 
separate  themselves.  To 
really  get  the  sentiments  be- 
hind black  reasoning,  just  try 
what  that  old  Indian  proverb

Loan   and   Grant  Questions  Anstvered 


DGreg  Rimmer 

Basic  grants,  loans  and 
student  awards  do  affect  a 
student  at  Southern  Mission- 
ary College. 


The  following  ar 
to  some  of  the 
asked  questions: 


/5  financial  aid  available 
only  to  poor  people? 

No.  Financial  aid  is  in- 
tended to  remove  financial 
barriers  for  families  who  can- 
not afford  the  cost  of  an 
education  beyond  high  school 
and  to  fill  the  gap  for  families 
who  can  afford  to  only  pay  part 
of  the  cost.  Also  because  of 
the  Middle  Income  Student 
Assistance  Act,  more  families 
are  eligible  to  receive  aid. 

What  if  I  am  not  eligible  for 
a  basic  grant,  can  I  still  be 
considered  for  a  loan? 

Yes.  All  students  must  file 
for  a  basic  grant  before  being 
considered,  whether  they  are 
eligible  or  not. 


What  exactly  is  a  loan?  Do  I 
need  collateral?  Do  I  need 
credit  of  some  sort? 

Loans  are  funds  a  student 
can  borrow  while  in  college, 
but  he  does  not  have  to  pay 
them  back  until  after  grad- 
uation. No  collateral  is 
needed  and  credit  ratings  do 
not  affect  most  loans. 


Rees 


Cont.  from  page  1 
tween  the  two  winning  teams 
will  be  at  9  p.m. 
Halftime  and  between  game 


Do  I  have  to  pay  back  grant 

No.  This  is  a  grant  from  the 
government  that  never  has  to 
be  repaid. 

What  is  the  financial  aid 
deadline  for  SMC? 

Priority  is  given  to  aid 
applications  completed  by 
April  I;  those  completed  after 
this  date  will  be  considered  as 
long  as  funds  last. 

If  I  am  flat  broke,  can  I  still 
attend  SMC? 


Yes,  that  is  what  financial 
aid  is  all  about;  your  tax- 
dollars  make  it  possible  for 
you  to  receive  aid  and  achieve 
your  education. 

What  is  meant  by  an  award? 

After  evaluating  the  stu- 
dent's need,  the  financial  aid 
staff  selects  the  kind  of  aid  to 
be  administered.  This  sug- 
gested aid  award  is  then 
reviewed  by  the  student  and 
accepted  or  rejected.

Play  Features  Christ's  Family 


Portrait,"  will  be  presented 
Tuesday  and  Wednesday  eve- 
nings, March  17  and  18.  The 
production  will  be  held  in  the 
Collegedale  Academy  Audi- 
torium at  7:30  p.m. 

The  play  is  about  the  family 
of  Jesus  and  encompasses  the 
last  three  years  of  Christ's 
life.  It  begins  in  Nazareth, 
which  Jesus  had  just  left  to 
enter  His  life  work  and  where 
his  remaining  brothers  under- 
stood only  that  in  the  height  of 
the  building  season.  He  had 
left  them  and  depleted  their 
working  force. 


It  follows  through  His 

istry  to  His  unwelcome  home 
and  His  death,  ending  several 
years  later  in  Nazareth.  All 
His  family — except  Mary — 
still  labor  under  the  delusion 
that  they  have  been  disgraced. 

The  main  characters  of  the 
play  are  Tonua  Barley  (Mary), 
Michele  Buch  (Mary's  sister), 
Craig  Boddy,  Scott  Eivins, 
Johnny  Lazor,  Frank  Roman 
(Jesus*  four  brothers)  Sylvia 
Haylock.  Leslie  Roman  (wives 
of  two  of  the  brothers)  and 
Michael  Avant  (Jesus'  neph- 
ew David). 

The  theme  of  the  play  is 
taken  from  Jesus  Christ's  own 


words.  "A  prophet 
without  honor,  but  in  his  own 
country,  and  among  his  own 
kin,  and  in  his  own  house." 
(Matt.  13:57) 

Dr.  Don  Dick,  chairman  of 
the  communication  depart- 
ment, is  directing  the  play 
with  the  help  of  Lisa  Kelley, 
assistant  director,  and  Louie 
Parra,  production  manager. 

Tickets  are  on  sale  at  the 
Village  Market,  Campus  Shop 
and  Student  Center.  Tickets 
will  also  be  available  at  the 
door  the  nights  of  the  play. 
The  price  for  the  reserved 
seats  is  $3  per  person  (S2  for 
ID  card  holders).

G)nstruction  to  Start  on 
Area   Bank    Branch 


Pioneer  Bank  will  soon  be- 
gin construction  on  a  College- 
dale  branch.  The  bank  will  be 
located  at  the  northeast  cor- 
ner, between  Dale's  Hardware 
and  the  Trading  Post,  at  Four 
Corners. 

Ground  breaking  for  the 
new  bank  will  take  place 
within  the  next  four  weeks. 
The  anticipated  completion 
date  is  the  end  of  June. 

President  Bill  Hunt  ex- 
plained that  "Collegedale  is 
-ne  of  the  finest 


in  Hamilton  county  and  many 
of  their  good  customers  live  in 
Collegedale."  For  this  reason. 
they  feel  that  Collegedale  is  a 
good  location  for  a  branch. 

The  3000  square  foot  build-

to  appear  like  a  log  cabin  ;  yet 
it  will  still  have  the  modern 
conveniences  of  a  bank  such 
as  drive-up  windows.  The

A  dating  program 
again  in  the  works.  This  time 
it  is  scheduled  to  be  unfurled 
in  chapel  on  March  20. 

Special  arrangements  have 
already  been  made  with  the 
Dean  of  Students  office  to 
print  questions  on  the  back  of 
the  chapel  cards.  These  ques- 
tions will  be  limited  to  one's 
dating  preferences.  Cards  will 
also  be  available  after  chapel 
at  the  Student  Center  desk; 
however,  they  must  be  com- 
pleted by  7  p.m.  that  evening. 

The  cards  will  be  processed 
on  the  computer  and  are 
anticipated  to  be  delivered  to 
all  three  dormitories  by  Mon- 
day, March  24.  Village  stu- 
dents will  be  able  to  pick  up 
their  printouts  at  the  Student 
Center  desk.    The  women  will 


also  be  getting  lists.  Each 
printout  will  contain  eight 
names  that  match  the  dating 
preferences  listed,  and  these 
will  be  cross  referenced. 

Gerald  Owens,  coordinatoi 
of  the  dating  program,  cau- 
tioned that  if  one  does  not  plan 
to  use  the  dating  printout  the 
following  week  t

questions.  He  also  stressed 
that  each  person  should  care- 
fully read  and  fill  out  the 
questions,  entering  one  imark 
per  question.  Some  of  the 
questions  will  have  multiple 
responses. 

The  first  attempt  to  set  up  a 
dating  program  fell  through 
because  the  questionnaires 
were  not  printed  in  time  to  be 
distributed  in  chapel  on  Feb.

Opinions   * 

Person's  Moral  Condition  Not  Always  Reflected  In  Appearance  and  Action 


^ 


Dear  Editor: 

I  sometimes  wish  life  were 
so  simple  that  1  could  tell  a 
person's  moral  condition  by 
his  or  her  actions  and  appear- 
ance. Appearance,  though,  is 
only  what  the  word  means — 
what  appears  to  be,  not  nec- 
essarily what  is  fact. 

True,  our  appearance  can 
and  should  reflect  our  rela- 
tionship with  God.  But  that 
doesn't  mean  we  can  observe 
someone's  appearance  and 
then  know  his  moral  condition 
or  relationship  with  God. 

Although       the       clothing 

shock  me.  1  must  remember 
that  a  person's  relationship 
with  God  is  a  spiritual  fact. 
This  person  may  not  appear  to 
fit  into  my  idea  of  moralitj', 
but  this  is  only  an  appearance. 
I  cannot  know  the  presence  or 
absence  of  a  person's  rela- 
tionship with  God  (a  spiritual 
fact)  by  how  he  appears  to  me. 
Take,  for  example,  the  Bib- 
lical character  David.  The 
Bible  makes  plain  that  a 
person  should  not  take  an- 
other person's  life.  Yet  we  see 
David,  led  by  God,  kill 
Goliath.  From  appearances,  I 
would  have  to  assume  that 
David  sinned.  But  actually  I 
would  say  David  would  have 
sinned  had  he  refused  to  take 
Goliath's  life.  He  would  not 
have  been  doing  what  God 
was  "leading"  him  to  do. 


In  considering  this  story  and 
many  others  like  it.  1  realize 
that  although  I  have  not  been 
led  by  God  to  take  som 
life.  I  cannot  accuse  David  of 
being  an  immoral  murderer 
"^this  instance.  In  fact,  I  cai 
judge  David's  relationship 
with  God  by  any  e; 
factors.  Were  it  not  the 
Biblical  authors  who  implied 
David's  motives? 

Similarly  today.  1  > 
judge  a  person's  relationship 
with  God  by  his  appearance. 
God  goes  the  other  waj 
around  and,  so  to  speak, 
judges  our  appearance  by  oui 
relationship  with  Him, 

Since  I  can't  always  label 
some  action  or  appearance 
coming     from     an     immo 
heart,    I    can't    make    it 
standard     that     jewelry     be 
known       as       "badge; 
Laodician     indifference 
clothing  which  appears  to  me 
to  be  indecent  as  '  'the  uniform 
of  a  . .  .  prostitute"  as  a 
letter  to  the  editor  suggested 

The  author  of  the  letter  also 
asked,  "Is  the  acceptance  and 
usage  of  such  items  (jewelry, 
etc.)  pleasing  to  God?"    Who 
am  I  to  answer  any  question 
like  that  about  the  creato; 
the  universe?  To  me  it  set 
that  God  could  not  be  plea 
with    the    brutal    slaying 
animals,    yet    we    see    many 
references  in  the  Old  Testa- 


the  southern  accent 


ment  saying  God  was 
"pleased"  with  burnt  sacri- 
fices. I  believe  that  God  was 
pleased  more  with  the  re- 
sponse to  Him  which  those 
who  were  offering  the  sacri- 
fices showed  than  with  the 
burnt  offerings  themselves. 

In  other  words,  I  can't 
always  say  what  is  pleasing  to 
God  in  every  circumstance.  I 
believe  an  action  or  appear- 
ance can  be  right  under  cer- 
cumstances  and  wrong  under 
other  circumstances.  The 
thing  which  makes  any  action 
or  appearance  right  or  wrong 
is  one's  relationship  with  God. 
This  is  part  of  the  incredible 
freedom  which  God  wants  us 
all  to  have. 

Also  in  my  own  opinion, 
letters  such  as  the  one  1 
referred  to  earlier,  do  more  to 
give  guilt  feelings  thai 
convict     of     sin.  As 

Campbell  said  in  his  chapel 
talk  on  Feb.  21,  "feelings  are 
not  sin."  I  would  carry  that  a 
bit  further  and  say  "feelings 
are  not  fact."  Just  as  our 
feelings  of  love  are  not  a  true 


indication  of  the  presence  or 
lack  of  a  love  relationship,  so 
guilt  feelings  are  not  a  true 
indication  of  the  presence  of 
guilt.  Since  we  as  humans 
frequently  confuse  guilt  feel- 
ings with  guilt,  and  since  guilt 
feelings  many  times  come 
between  us  and  God  in  what 
could  be  a  beautiful  guilt-free 
relationship,  I  think  that  most 
things  which  would  probably 
do  little  but  cause  guilt  feel- 
ings in  others  should  be 
avoided. 


Remember,  a  relationship 
with  God  may  change  our 
appearance,  but  we  can't 
Judge  another's  relationship 
by  his  or  her  appearance. 
Thank  you, 
Sam  McBride 

P.S.  1  chose  not  to  include 
specific  Bible  texts  and  Spirit 
of  Prophecy  quotes  to  support 
the  above  opinions.  Instead, 
I  challenge  all  readers  to  find 
out  truth  for  themselves 
through  an  experimental  rela- 
tionship with  God. 


SMC  Women's  Dress  Defended 


Dr. 


Dear  Editor: 

Mr.  Speece  gave  us  his 
opinion  of  the  dress  of  SMC 
women.  !  feel  that  he  gen- 
eralized far  too  much.  I  have 
heard  guests  on  our  campus 
say  that  we  are  one  of  the  best 
dressed  SDA  college 

campuses,  and  I  do  think  Mr. 
Speece  was  unfair,  although 
he  did  not  mean  to  offend. 

We  as  Adventists  are  very 


guilty  of  being  critical  and 
pointing  out  other  people's 
mistakes  '  'for  their  own 
good."  Maybe  we  should  try 
another  approach.  1  wonder 
what  would  happen  if  we 
started  noticing  the  good 
things  people  do  and  say. 
Everyone  knows  that  you  can 
find  what  you  look  for. 
Sincerely, 
Audrey  Mayden 


Dress  Does  Not  Always  Reveal  True  Person 


Dear  Editor: 

The  following  remarks  are 
to  be  addressed  not  only  to 
Steven  Speece  but  also  the 
others  who  have  some  of  the 
same  misconceptions  con- 
cerning the  dress  of  the 
women  (or  should  I  say 
"prostitutes")  on  this 
campus. 

I  could  take  the  specific 
items,  such  as  tight,  split 
skirts,  see-through  blouses,  as 
well  as  broaches,  stick  pins, 
etc.,  mentioned  in  the  letter 
and  give  just  as  many  reasons 
for  wearing  them  as  you  gave 
for  not  wearing  them.  But  I'd 
simply  be  wasting  my  time 
and  avoiding  my  intended 
purpose  for  this  letter.  You 
see,  the  important  part  of  a 
person  is  not  always  what  you 
see  on  the  outside. 

We  are  all  rooted  from 
diverse  backgrounds,  which 
means  that  one's  ideas, 
thoughts,  motives  and  con- 
cepts on  dress  will  be  different 
from  the  next  person.  I  don't 
know  of  any  person  on  earth 
who  can  clearly  see  a  person': 


I'd  be  able  to  look  back  on  my 
friends  and  simply  discard 
them,  because  I  have  come 
close  to  them.

Starr's  Christian  Attitude 
Is  Witness  for  God 

Dear  Editor: 

I  wish  to  comment  on  the 
Christian  attitude  shown  here 
at  SMC.  Billie  Jean  Starr, 
praising  the  Lord  after  suffer- 
ing from  leg  and  back  injuries 
from  her  fall,  is  a  fantastic 
witness  for  her  Father. 


Do 


be 


't\ 


hope  that  in  your  letter  you 
were  not  making  an  attempt  to 
judge  anyone. 

I  happen  to  have  many 
friends  who  wear  skirts  with 
slits  in  them  and  stick  pins, 
and  as  a  matter  of  fact,  I  wear 
them  myself.  But  if  I  were  to 
change  my  concepts  on  dress 
and  quit  wearing  this  parti- 
cular style  I  really  doubt  that 


accident  to  show  there  is 
Christianity  here  at  SMC?  Are 
we  held  as  hostages  by  not 
sharing  our  Christianity  to 
those  outside  of  our  secluded 
valley,  as  depicted  by  the 
Thatcher  Sabbath  School? 
Why  don't  we  live  up  to  our 
reputation  of  being  an  ex- 
ceptionally Christian  college? 
We  have  a  desperate  need 
of  Jesus  here  every  day.  He  is 
our  love  and  our  strength  for 
the  constant  battle  against  self 
and  Satan.  Each  of  us  has  nur 
own  mission  field  here.  VVe 
have  been  helped  and 
strengthened  bv  Jesus,  maybe 
through  a  fellow  Christian. 
Let  us  watch  and  pray  to  let 


Jesus'    love   spread    like   fire 

every  single  day  through  us. 

"To  everything  there  is  a 

purpose  under  the  heaven." 
While  God  has  us  here,  why 
not  serve  Him  and  follow  His 
plan  of  life?  We  should  do  our 
best  in  the  work  that  lies 
nearest,  by  commiting  our 
ways  to  God  and  by  watching 
for  the  indications  of  His 
providence.  By  doing  this,  we 
prepare  for  the  times  when  we 
leave  SMC. 

As  individuals,  let's  let  our 
Christianity  shine  through.  It 
is  said  that  whatever  you  are 
looking  for  at  SMC  you  can 
find.  As  Christians,  we  should 
be  looking  for  those  that  need 
Jesus,  instead  of  being 
searched  for. 

Let  us  make  SMC  what  our 
i-ather  has  planned  for  it— a 
southern  missionary  college-

A  Woman's  Viewpoint  on  Young  People's   Dress    Urges    Repentance 

Dear  Editor: 


Speece's  letter.  I  feel  that 
there  should  be  a  woman's 
viewpoint  published.  I  am  not 
a  student  or  faculty  member, 
but  I  observe  many  acts  on  the 
stage  of  this  campus  which 
concern  me  greatly.  In  fact, 
what  1  am  about  to  pen  here 
stems  from  a  heart  of  love  and 

I  am  a  fairly  young  Christian 
seeking  God's  will  for  my  life 
daily.  Before  salvation,  I  lived 
a  very  sheltered  life  at  home, 
and  ]  realized  that  young  men 
and  women  fresh  out  of 
academy  are  ready  and  eager 
to  taste  the  fullness  of  a 
strange  but  enticing  cup.     1

I  realize  that  being  away 
from  home  with  extreme  peer

What  we  should  be  concemec^

Speece  said,  his  words  were 
not  directed  at  any  one  indivi- 
dual, so  my  word: 
exclude  anv-  There  i 
men  here  who  insist 
or  slacks  every  bit  as  tight  as 
the  ladies'  pants.  This  would 
be  somewhat  understandable 
(but  not  excusable)  if  they  had 
just  outgrown  their  pants  and 
could  not  afford  better.  It  is 
just  as  distracting  to  be  faced 


year,  the  things  I  found 

volting  were  guys  with  shirts 

unbuttoned    to    their    navals 

who    thought    they    had    sex 

appeal  and  a  few  ragged  pairs 

of  blue  jeans  worn  to  class. 

This   year    a    problem    has 

:annot      developed  that  seems  to  stem 

young      largely    from    the     sheltered 

jeans      situation  of  our  campus.    To  a 

large  degree,  we  are  sheltered 

from    what    goes    on    in    the 

outside     world.         When     a 

along,  students 


what  inspired  the  fashion  or 
what  the  wearing  of  certain 
styles  conveys  to  the  on- 
lookers. 

I  refer  to  the  women  on  our 
campus  who  wear  see-through 
blouses,  front-buttoned  or  slit 
skirts  and  heavy  make-up.  The 
sight  of  any  of  these  in  any 
combination  reminds  me  of 
ling  lineup  of  prosti- 


outward  sign  of  intemperance 
as  He  works  with  the  person's 
cooperation  from  the  inside. 

There  are  non-converted 
students  here — a  group  which 
we  will  always  have  because, 
believe  it  or  not,  they  have  a 
purpose  in  God's  plan,  also.  I 
know  some  of  the  younp 
women  here  are  promoting 
lust  and  causing  disturbances 
for  some  male  students,  but 
guys,  if  you  cannot  cope  with 
this  campus  situation,  what 
will  you  do  out  in  the  "real" 
world.       Let    God    use    you'- 


all. 

Also,  I  do  not  see  the  faculty 
cowardly  hunched  behind  a 
three-foot  thick  steel  door, 
afraid  to  enforce  dress  codes, 
nor  do  I  see  them  Phari- 
seeistically  reprimanding  stu- 
dents who  should  be  adult 
enough  to  reprimand  them- 
selves.   It  may  be  that  these 


men  and  women  know  they 
won't  change  hearts;  there- 
fore, enforcement  of  a  strict 
dress  code  would  be  forcing 
acceptance,  and  we  know  God 
does  not  force  himself  on 
unwilling  people,  so  why 
should  we? 

We  as  Christians  must  live 
in  the  worid,  but  praise  God, 
we  do  not  have  to  be  of  this 
world.  It  is  an  individual 
choice.  Time  is  short  and  our 
duty  is  to  pray  for  the  brethren 
as  Jesus  told  Peter  to  do  in 
Luke  22:32. 

The  question  is,  "Who  wui 
be  ready?"  We  should  pray 
for  one  another,  taking  God's 
loving  attitude  as  our  own. 
"The  Lord  is  not  slack  con- 
cerning His  promise,  as  some 
men  count  slackness;  but  is 
longsuffering  to  us-ward,  not 
willing  that  any  should  perish, 
but  that  all  should  come  to 
repentance."  2  Peter  3:9

Dress  and  Conduct  Related 

Dear  Editor: 

In     regard    to     the     letter      brought    into    line    by    their 
written  by  Mr.  Speece  in  the      peers  and  everyone  abided  by 
last  Accent,   I  disagree  with      the  dress  code  without  ques- 
the  blunt   approach    that    he      tion.      This    system    worked, 
took  in  attacking  people  who      Only    twice    did    the    school 
dress    to    draw    unnecessary 
attention  to  themselves.     He 
does    raise    a    valid    point, 
however.  There  is  a  very  clear 
relationship     between     one's 
manner  of  dress    and    one's 
conduct  in  his  or  her  relation- 
ship with  others. 

1  was  privileged  to  attend 
the  Webb  School  in  Bell 
Buckle,  Tenn.,  for  four  years. 
At  that  school,  the  adminis- 
tration and  faculty  i 


npus  are  the  first  to  sheer  blouses,  front-buttoned 
whatever  seems  to  or  slit  skirts  and  heavy  make- 
physical  attractive-  up  are  all  tools  of  the  trade.  A 
lot  of  the  young  women  seen 
any  day  of  the  week  and 
especially  on  Sabbath  on  our 
campus  could  pass  for  one  of 
those  prostitutes. 

WTiat  is  the  solution  to  the 
problem?  I  feel  it  is  twofold: 
1)  the  setting  of  a  modest  and 
conservative  but  flexible  dress 
code  for  both 


of 


the 


Thei 


the 


distinct    deterioratit 
conduct  of  some  of  the  stu- 
dents during  these  periods. 

I  believe  that  much  of  the 
problems  with  PDA  and  any 
related  troubles  on  this 
campus  might  be  resolved  to  a 
great  degree  if  a  high  stand- 
ard of  dress,  reasonable  and 
practical,  were  to  be  agreed 
1  upholding  a  high  standard      upon     and    enforced 


of  academic  and  personal  de- 
velopment which  included 
one's  manner  of  dress  at  all 
times.  The  young  women 
wore  modest  attire,  whether  it 
"/as  a  dress  or  dress-quality 
pantsuit,  during  the  academic 
^^y-  The  young  men  wore 
dress-slacks  and  shirt  with  a 


mously.  Students  who  dress 
like  mature,  educated  Christ- 
ian young  adults  will  act  that 
way.  Those  who  dress  ac- 
cording to  a  more  casual 
standard  leave  open  the  door 
to  temptation  to  act  casually. 
Some  have  enough  self-control 
to  behave  responsibly  when  in 
adding  a  dress-quality  casual  attire,  yet  there  are  just 
I  these  during      as  many  who  can't. 

Still,  let  us  never  judge  a 
person's  inner  motives  by  his 
attire,  instead,  let  us  each  as 
individuals  do  all  things  as 
Christ  would,  were  He  in  our 

Bruce  A.  Hall 


Mat  or 
the  wir 

To  a  greater  extent  that  I 
have  observed  anywhere  else 
jn  my  academic  experiences, 
in  and  out  of  our  schools,  the 
students  at  that  school  behav- 
ed like  ladies  and  gentlemen, 
"^ose      who      didn't      were 


that  dress  code.  Penalty  for 
violation  after  a  certain  small 
number  of  warnings  would  be 
the  loss  of  the  privilege  of 
attending  school  here. 

Attending  school  here 
should  be  considered  a  privi- 
lege, and  deserve  respect  in 
our  conduct  and  dress.  The 
expulsion  of  a  few  who  refuse 
to  comply  will  encourage 
others  to  shape  up.  The  few 
who  leave  will  be  replaced  by 
many  more  who  will  have  a 
higher  regard  for  the  college. 

A  recent  visit  to  Tennessee 
Temple  College  showed  me 
that  they  have  no  problems 
with  the  way  students  dress 
and  act.  If  a  student  persists 
in  violation,  they  are  out.  The 
students  respect  the  discipline 
and  authority.  Each  year 
the  school  turns  away  nearly 
as  many  applicants  as  they 
accept.  I  believe  we  need  to 
learn  a  lesson  from  Tennessee 

Our  college  has  standards. 
How  long  will  we  continue  to 
trample  on  them? 
William  Noel 


Dear  Editor; 

After  having  talked  with  a 
number  of  people  concerning 
my  last  letter  to  the  editor 
(Issue  18)  on  dress  code,  I 
realize  that  there  is  a  large 
number  of  people  who  do  not 
understand  the  harm  in  fol- 
lowing the  fashions  of  this 
world.  I  pray  that  the  Spirit  of 
our  Lord  may  come  into  them 
and  show  them  all  things.  It  is 
imperative  that  these  people 
learn  what  worldliness  is  and 
the  dangers  of  its  defilement. 
(1  John  2) 

They  need  to  realize  that 
they  are  the  princes  and 
princesses  in  the  royal  family 
of  God.  Look  at  the  prayer  of 
Jesus  found  in  John  17:21. 
Jesus  said,  "that  they  also 
may  be  o/ie  m  us."  We  need  a 
better  understanding  of  what 
His  statement  really  means. 
To  say  that  Christians  are 
royal  is  an  understatement, 
for  we  are  elevated  above  all 
things.  Only  God  is  above  us! 

Can't    you    see    now    that 


when  you  conduct  yourself  in 
any  shameful  way  that  you 
shame  your  brother  the  King? 
Satan  wanted  to  be  glorified 
above  even  God.  Now  that  he 
knows  that  we  are  to  be 
glorified  above  the  position 
that  he  held  in  heaven,  he  is 
fUled  with  a  jealous  rage 
against  us,  and  if  he  gets  the 
chance  he  will  bring  us  down 
to  the  lowest  position  that  is 
possible. 

Therefore,  be  grateful  to 
Jesus  for  His  mercy  and 
conduct  yourself  in  a  manner 
befitting  a  person  of  your  high 
estate.  Search  for  under- 
standing and  flee  from  any 
appearance  of  evil,  (Heb. 
2:5-9) 

I  strongly  suggest  reading 
the  pamphlet  Revival  and 
Reformation.  It  is  available  at 
the  Leaves  of  Autumn  rack  in 
the  Student  Center. 
Sincerely. 
Steven  J.  Speece

The  Candidate  Teaches  Bill  a   True  Business 


(Zacchaeus  ID 

Bill  was  the  trophy  of  the 
business  department  at  SMC. 
In  the  two  years  since  his 
graduation  he  had  risen  to  the 
vice-presidency  of  a  prestig- 
ious business  firm.  However, 
his  professors  would  have 
been  more  ashamed  than 
proud  had  they  known  each 
step  Bill  had  taken  to  reach  his 
rung  on  the  ladder.  He  had 
made  wide  use  of  business 
practices  which  he  learned 
elsewhere  than  at  SMC. 

They  also  would  have  been 
embarassed  by  a  visit  to  Bill's 
apartment.  The  interior  deco- 
rating could  best  be  classified 
as  "early  pagan."  Music  and 
"refreshments"  added

Mercedes  into  the  traffic,  he 
headed  towards  the  city. 
Arriving  downtown,  he  found 
a  parking  place  and  waited. 
The  crowd  was  already  quite 
large.  Bill,  being  on  the  short 
side,  realized  that  he  was 
going  to  have  a  difficult  time 
seeing  the  motorcade.  Look- 
ing down  the  street  he  noticed 
a  covered  walkway  crossing 
above  the  traffic.  An  idea 
flashed  into  his  mind.  He 
grabbed  his  Pentax  camera 
and  headed  for  the  walkway. 


all  this  attention.  He  was  a 
candidate  of  sorts,  but  so  very 
different. 

The  "  motorcade  was 
approaching.  The  noise  of 
wild  cheering  swept  the 
assembled  throng  like  an  on- 
coming downpour.  Bill 
steadied  his  camera  and 
adjusted  the  f-stop.  The 
Candidate's  car  was  coming 
into  range  for  a  good  shot.  Bill 
reached  to  focus  his  camera. 
Suddenly  the  exuberant 
shouts  ceased — silenced  by 
one  sweeping  gesture  of  the 
Candidate.     Bill  was  startled 


as  the  form  came  into  focus  in 
his  viewfinder.  The  Candidate 
was  looking — straight  at  him! 
The  words  came  loud  and 
strong,  "Bill,  come  down, 
today  I  must  go  to  your 
apartment." 

The  next  few  hours  were  the 
most  beautiful  of  Bill's  life. 
Things  changed.  The  interior 
of  his  apartment  was  redeco- 
rated in  "early  Christian." 
His  job,  too,  was  transformed. 
No  longer  would  he  use  the 
dishonest  methods  of  previous 
days.  They  seemed  so  very 
distasteful  to  him  now.  Always 
echoing  in  his  mind  were 
those  beautiful  words, 
"Today,  Bill,  salvation  has 
come  to  this  apartment." 

At  last.  Dr.  VandeVere 
could  be  truly  proud. 


SAWS  Relieves  Starving  in  Thailand 


Seventh -day  Adventist 

World  Service  (SAWS)  claims 
they  have  turned  starvation 
and  malnutrition  around  the 
town  of  Borai,  Thailand,  but 
that  the  end  of  this  overall 
problem  is  not  in  sight. 

According  to  Elder  Richard 
O'Ffill,  deputy  director,  "The 
3,000  residents.  80  per  cent  of 
whom  were  undernourished, 
have  been  put  back  on  their 
feet,  and  the  children  are 
playing  once  again." 


such  as  soy  fortified  wheat, 

supplement  to  their  normal 
diet  of  dried  fish,  oil  and  rice. 
Deaths  from  starvation  and 
nutrition-related  causes  have 
virtually  been  halted  in  that 
village.  It  is  our  aim  to 
continue  to  seek  out  those 
pockets  of  extreme  need." 

SAWS  entered  the  struggle 
four  months  ago  when  it  sent 
two  seven-member  doctor- 
hospitals  to  cope  with  the 
situation.  At  present  there  are 
more     than     25     individuals 


working  twenty-four  hours  a 
day  in  four  field  hospitals  to 
alleviate  the  suffering. 

The  next  phase  of  operation 
is  the  construction  of  dams 
and  irrigation  systems  for 
certain  villages  that  must  be 
relocated.  The  shipment  of 
clothing  and  medicines,  how- 
ever, '  must  be  continued. 
More  than  $832,000  has  been 
received  so  far  from  the  initial 
appeal  made  within  the  Ad- 
ventist church  a  few  months 
ago,  $8,120  of  which  was 
donated  by  students  and  fa- 
culty of  SMC.

spring  is  almost  hi

6  .  THE  SOUTHERN  ACCENT  Thursday.  March  13, 


Final  Summary  of  AA  B^ketball  Action 


Well,  the  statistics  say  it  all. 
Pnisia  clinched  the  AA 
League  Championship  in  the 
men's  basketball  division  with 
a  9-2  record.  And  the  title  is  a 
well-earned  one.  The  team 
led  the  league  in  shooting 
percentages,  averaging  69  per 
cent  from  the  line  and  42  per 
cent  from  the  Field  for  806  total 
points,  an  average  of  73.3  per 
game.  Team  captain  Rick 
Prusia  contributed  21.4  aver- 
age points  per  game,  shooting 
78  per  cent  from  the  line  and 
an  unbeaten  51  per  cent  from 
the  field.  Team  members 
Dave  Creamer  and  Dennis 
Diminich  also  averaged  better 
than  10  points  per  game,  with 
18.1  and  11.9  average  points, 
respectively. 

Nafie  finished  the  season 
with  a  record  of  8-4  for  a 
not-so-distant  second  position. 


.._   .  745  total   points 

(62.1  average)  were  backed  up 
by  a  record-low  of  685  points 
scored  against  the  team  for 
the  season.  Co-captain  Brad 
Schultz  matched  Prusia's  re- 
cord 51  per  cent  from  the  field 
and  racked  up  262  points,  an 
average  of  21. 8  for  the  season. 
Other  leading  scorers  for  the 
team  included  Dave  West  with 
an  average  of  13.5  points  and 
Byron  Rouse  with  a  10.8 
average. 

Third-ranked  Rathbun 

finished  the  season  with  an 
even  6-6  record.  The  team  led 
the  league's  scoring  with  896 
total  points  for  a  74.7  point 
average.  Team  captain  Paul 
Rathbun  was  the  leading  indi- 
vidual scorer  with  301  total 
points  for  an  average  of  25.1 
points  per  game.  Doug  Price, 
averaging  17  points  per  game. 


nd  Jeff  Lingerfelt,  averaging 
16.7,  were  definite  assets  to 
the  team. 

Beckwith  edged  past  Beyer 
with  a  3-8  record  for  the 
fourth-place  position.  The 
team  scored  678  total  points 
for  an  average  of  61.6  points 
per  game.  Team  captain  Dave 
Beckwith  led  the  team's 
scoring  with  178  points  for  a 
16.2  point  average.  Keith 
Mosley  and  Aubrey  Preston 
added  13.5  and  10.4  average 
points,  respectively. 

Beyer  completed  the  lineup, 
shooting  710  points  for  a  59.2 
game  average  and  a  record  of 
3-9.  David  Botimer  led  the 
team's  scoring  with  an    18.8 


point  average,  including 
awesomely  methodical  (and 
season  record)  86  per  cent 
from  the  line.  Team  captain 
Ai  Beyer  averaged  12.4  points 
per  game,  and  Stuart  Ware, 
10.8. 

And  there  it  is— the  story  of 
a  basketball  season  in  cold, 
precise  black-and-white.  But 
there's  another  side,  a  side 
which  mere  words  and  num- 
bers can  never  show.  The 
sweat,  the  tiredness  and  pain 
of  defeat;  the  excitement,  the 
thrill  of  a  play  well-made;  the 
toal  involvement.  Lingerfelt, 
all  speed  and  scrappiness. 
leaving  several  inches  of  skin 
on  the  court  each  game.   Price 


rebounding  the  ball  like  it  was 
a  wild  thing.  West  loping 
down  the  court.  Velasco 
making  a  fast  break.  Rathbun 
shooting  a  long  bomb  to  bring 
the  team  from  behind.  Nafie 
surging  in  for  the  leap-twist- 
and  a  perfect  layup.  Prusia 
shooting  over  everyone's  head 
with  ease.  "Dave  Beckwith 
must  have  legs  made  of 
springs!"  "Go.  Howieee, 
Go!!"  "Get  it  to  Buck— he'll 
put  it  in!!"  The  sight  of  a 
well-coordinated  team  work- 
ing together.  And  more.  This 
is  what  makes  basketball  sea- 
son memorable.  What?  Only 
306  more  days  till  the  next

\  Academic  Departments  Restructured   into  10  Divisions 


22 

I  changes  will  be 
[he  formation  of  the  Division 
of  Arts  and  Letters.  Division  of 
Biology  and  Chemistry  and 
the  Division  of  Education  and 
Human  Sciences.  The  Divi- 
sion of  Arts  and  Letters  will 
include  the  art,  communi- 
cation, English,  history  and 
modern  languages  depart- 
ments. The  Division  of  Bio- 
logy and  Chemistry  will  be 
the  combination  of  the  biology 
and  chemistry  departments, 
le  education  department  will 
.rge  with  the  Division  of 
I  Behavioral    and    Family    Sci- 


Dr.  Larry  Hanson,  academic 
dean,  explained  that  the  two 
main  influences  in  the  for- 
mation of  divisions  was  the 
overlay  of  subject  matter  and 
the  need  to  keep  each  division 
within  one  building. 

"SMC  is  a  multipurpose 
institution  which  meets  the 
needs  of  a  broad  spectrum  of 
interests,"  explained  Dr. 
Hanson.  "Many  colleges 
have  specialties  that  they 
teach  such  as  in  a  technical, 
.vocational  or  liberal  arts  col- 
lege. But  SMC  tries  to  meet 
the  various  needs  of  different 
academic  abilities." 

By  the  formation,  various 
teachers  can  help  teach  in 
other  areas  of  the  division.    In 


of  the  past  when  it  was  necessary 
to  have  two  teachers  but 
needed  the  services  of  2'/i 
people,  they  usually  had  to 
hire  three  people.  In  the 
divisional  structure.  Dr.  Han- 
son feels  that  it  won't  be 
necessary  to  overstaff. 


This  will  also  decrease  the 
number  of  department  chair- 
men, reducing  the  number  of 
chairmen  salaries  and  the 
number  of  people  reporting  to 
the  academic  dean.  It  will  also 
lead  to  the  formation  of  sev- 
eral new  courses  in  the  future. 

Dr.  Hanson  explained  that 
"majors  will  be  unaffected  by 
the  divisional  structure.  No 
consideration  has  been  given 
to  dropping  any  majors.  Fac- 
ulty members  will  still  be 
identified  with   their  present 


title.  Only  the  administration 
of  the  academic  programs  will 
change. 

Dr.  Flovd  Greenleaf  wilt  be 
the  chairman  of  the  Division  of 
Arts  and  Letters,  Dr.  David 
Steen  of  the  Division  of  Bio- 
logy and  Chemistry,  and  Dr. 
Gerald  Colvin  of  the  Division 
of  Education  and  Human  Sci- 
ences. The  chairmen  of  the 
other  divisions  will  remain  the 
same  as  this  year. 

This  is  the  final  phase  of  the 
formation  of  divisions  which 
the  Administration  began 
several  years  ago.  The  first 
division  was  the  combination 
of  the  A.S.  and  B.S,  programs 


of  the  nursing  department. 
Other  merges  have  included 
the  business  department  and 
the  office  administration  de- 
partment to  form  the  Division 
of  Business  and  Office  Admin- 
istration. The  Division  of 
Mathematical  Sciences  was 
the  combination  of  the  com- 
puter science,  mathematics 
and  physics  departments. 

The  other  four  divisions  are 
the  Division  of  Industrial  Edu- 
cation, Division  of  Music, 
Division  of  Physical  Education 
and  the  Division  of  Religion. 

The  divisional  change  will 
officially  go  into  effect  on  July 
1.

Board  Issues  Statement 

The  Board  of  Trustees  i; 
exorcism  during  their  rc' 
statement  led  to  a  voluntary  resignation  of  ^ 

The  statement  was  issued  in  reference  to  tl 
spirits  taking  place  in  the  community. 

President  Frank  Knittel  will  further  explain  the  situation  to 
the  students  in  chapel  on  Thursday,  March  20. 

The  Board's  statement  is  as  follows: 

"The  methodology  of  exorcism  within  the  Seventh-day 
Adventist  Church  as  experienced  recently  in  Coilegedale  is  as 
yet  an  untested  practice  and  i 
misunderstanding  and  abuse.  It  is  an 
deal  of  study  by  our  church  leaders  ii 
practice  of  resolving  church  issues, 
impressionable  young  students  who  ; 


s    subject    to    confusion, 

1  issue  which  needs  a  great 

1  harmony  with  our  church 

A  college  setting  with 

:  easily  influenced  by 


dedicated  teachers  is  not  now  the  appropriate  setting  for 
experimental  ventures  in  exorcism.  There  are  great  medical, 
emotional,  and  legal  hazards  involved  with  college  students. 
Therefore,  in  order  to  remain  connected  with  the  college  in  any 
capacity,  students  and  staff  members  at  this  time  will  not  be 
involved  with  the  practice  of  exorcism  until  such  time  as  the 
church  has  a  formal  position  regarding  the  issue."

However,  in  order  to  select  a  President  of  your  choice,  one

weeks,  voila!  You  became  a  Registered  Voter!  But  dont  swell

responsibility  and  a  right. 

You  use  it  to  exercise  your  prerogative  to  choose  a  leader  to 
direct  our  country;  you  use  it  to  become  involved  and  to  compel 
others  to  follow  your  good  example;  you  use  it  to  shape  our

Dear  Editor: 

God  loves  us.  He  loves  us 
with  a  love  so  great  that  a  man 
in  his  finiteness  can't  compre- 
hend such  infinity  in  a  love. 
He  loves  us  with  a  love  so 
great  that  a  part  of  Himself 
was  given  to  die  in  our  place 
that  in  the  second  coming  of 
Christ  we  might  be  taken  up  to 
join  this  God  who  loves  our 
souls.  (John  3:16.  14:1-3) 


God  so  much  that  we  hunger 
and  thirst  after  righteousness? 
How  many  of  us  hold  to  a 
pretense  of  Christianity  yet 
deny  God's  power  to  work 
righteousness  i  our  lives? 
(Matt.  5:6.  2  Tim.  3:5)  We 
don't  really  want  to  hear  or 
read  God's  Word,  for  it  -lays 
open  all  of  our  wretchedness 
and  rebukes  us.  Yet,  this 
two-edged    sword    gives    en- 


terrible  awfulness  that  it  is 
and  as  the  power  that  sepa- 
rates us.  For  we,  permitting 
Satan  to  overrun  us,  have 
come  to  indulge  in  sin  and 
even  to  become  a  part  of  it. 
We  have  lost  the  relationship 
essential  to  knowing  our 
Father  and  God.  The  rela- 
tionship essential  to  make  us 
wise  to  discern  the  latter  end 
that  will  surely  come  as  a 
result  of  our  rejection  of  God. 
fJames  1:6,  Deut.  32:29) 
How  many  of  us  love  our 


thei 


:vil.      This 


inspiration 
Book  of  Hope  points  us  to  God 
and  tells  us  how  to  have  that 
missing  relationship.  It  says, 
"Harden  not  your  heart,"  but 
give  your  heart  to  God  today. 
(Heb.  3:7.8)  Our  probation  is 
now.  So  instead  of  squander- 
ing away  precious  time,  never 
to  be  reclaimed,  let's  give  our 
hearts  to  Him  now,  if  we  draw 
near  to  Him,  he  will  surely 
draw  near  to  us.  He  has  said 
so,  and  He  stands  by  His 
word.  (James  4:8,  2  Tim.  2:13) 


We    of   ourselves    car 
nothing   but    corruption,   but  I 
Christ's  working  within  u: 
change    the    corruption    into  I 
beauty  and  holiness.  We  must 
depend  wholly  upon  Him  and 

works,  but  trusting  heaven- 
wards for  the  grace  that  only  I 
God  can  give.  i 

There  are  only  two  roads  to 
follow — one  that  surely  leads 
to  eternal  death  and  the  other  I 
to  eternal  life.  Christ  is 
road  to  eternal  life.  God  offers 
us  that  road  of  purity  for 
way  of  pollution.  Is  this  I 
something  to  reject?  No!  Let's 
hold  on  to  Christ  strongly  and 
behold  Him  until  we  become 
changed,  and  let's  form  a 
relationship  with  our  Father  in 
heaven  through  our  Brother  in 
heaven-  | 

As    the    prodigal    son,

too  long.    Let's  go  home.

students  Urged  to  Rise  With  Christ 


[With  apologies  to  Greg  Latta, 
associate  pastor  of  Calvary 
Chapel  Assembly  of  God 
Church.  Costa  Mesa,  Calif] 

Dear  Editor: 

Paul  begins  the  third  chap- 
ter of  his  letter  to  the  saints  at 
Colossae  by  saying,  "If  you 
are  then  risen  with  Christ.  .  ." 
1  think  it  is  important  to  note 
the  word  "if  since  not  all 
people  are  "risen"  with 
Christ.  I've  only  been  on  this 
campus  about  seven  months, 
and  yet  I  think  1  can  fairly 
state  that  not  everyone  on  this 
campus  is  "risen"  with 
Christ.  (Of  course,  only  God 
knows  a  man's  heart  and  1 
don't  claim  to  know  who  is  a 
Christian  and  who  isn't.) 

If  then,  there  are  those  on 
this  campus  who  are  not 
"risen"  with  Christ,  it  follows 
that  they  do  have  His  risen 
spirit  dwelling  within  them 
and  are  not  governed  by  the 
Law  of  God,  but  rather  by 
their  own  worldly  consciences. 
With  only  this  severely  limited 
standard  to  govern  their 
hearts,  it's  not  really  sur- 
prising that  they  would  fail  to 
live  up  to  the  standards  of 
sexual  conduct  and  dress  that 
have  been  advocated  in  var- 
ious letters  to  the  editor 
during  this  school  year.  So 
then,  for  you  who  are  not 
"risen"  with  Christ,  I  have 
nothing  to  say  to  you  except 
that  I  extend  to  you  the  love 
God  has  given  me  for  you,  and 
I'm  praying  for  you.  1  address 
the  remainder  of  my  letter  to 


There  is  a  danger,  as  some 
have  pointed  out,  of  becoming 
too  legalistic  or  judgmental 
when  dealing  with  these  sub- 
jects (e.g.  sexual  conduct  and 
dress).  For  example,  if  a  man 
and  a  woman  truly  love  each 
other,  there  may  be  times 
when  a  spontaneous  public 
display  of  affection  is  perfectly 
righteous.  Therefore,  I'm  not 
going  to  try  to  set  any  arbi- 
trary rules  stating  what  can 
and  can't  be  done.  For  one 
thing,  the  person  whose  heart 
is  truly  bent  on  pleasing  God 
won't  ask  questions  like, 
"How  far  can  I  go  without 
sinning?"  The  person  who  is 
truly  putting  Christ  first  al- 
ready knows  what  should  or 
should  not  be  done.  I  will 
simply  draw  to  your  attention 
what  God's  Word  says  be- 
cause I  think  it  speaks  for 
itself. 

"If  you  are  then  risen  with 
Christ,  reach  out  for  the 
highest  gifts  of  heaven,  where 
Christ  reigns  in  power.  Give 
your  heart  to  the  heavenly 
things,    not   to    the    passing 


things  of  the  earth.  For  as  far 
as  the  worid  is  concerned,  you 
are  already  dead,  and  your 
true  life  is  a  hidden  one  in 
God,  through  Christ.  One 
day,  Christ,  the  secret  center 
of  our  lives,  will  show  Himself 
openly,  and  you  will  all  share 
in  that  magnificent  denouce- 
ment  (outcome  or  final  solu- 

In  so  far  then  as  you  have  to 
live  upon  this  earth,  consider 
yourselves  dead  to  worldly 
contacts;  have  nothing  to  do 
with  sexual  immorality,  dtrty- 
mindedness,  uncontrolled 
passion,  evil  desire,  and  the 
lust  for  other  people's  goods, 
which  last,  remember  is  a 
serious  a  sin  as  idolotry.  It  is 
because  of  these  things  that 
the  holy  anger  of  God  falls 
upon  those  who  refuse  to  obey 
Him.  And  never  forget  that 
you  had  your  part  in  those 
dreadful  things  when  you 
lived  that  old  life."  (Col. 
3:1-7,  J.  B.  PhUlips) 

I  could  continue,  but  1  think 
that  is  sufficient.  I  hope  this 
letter  will  help  clear  the  air  a 
little  and  be  a  blessing  to  all.

1  know  a  lot  of  kids  wouldn't  go  if  it  wasn't  leqoired.  I  doa't 
think  it  does  them  a  lot  of  good  to  go  if  they  resent  it,  but  it  does 
bring  all  the  students  together. 

Cathy  Cullum.  sophomore,  communications.  Memphis. 
Tenn.:  Chapel  doesn't  bother  me — it  isn't  that  bad  to  take  an 
hour  out  of  the  day  to  get  the  student  body  together,  but  I  think 
requiring  attendance  to  worships  and  chapels  make  people  not 
want  to  go. 

Valerie  Dick,  freshman,  communications.  CoUegedate, 
Tenn. :  I  think  they  should  plan  chapels  and  worships  that  are  so 
interesting  that  people  would  go  even  if  they  weren't  required. 
Being  forced  to  do  something  always  rubs  the  wrong  way. 

David  Lee,  senior,  communications.  CoUegedale.  Tenn.: 
Worship  of  God  should  never  be  required.  The  power  of  choice 
was  given  at  creation.  There  is  nothing  gained  by  forcing  a 
student  to  chapel  and  to  worship  his  Creator.  We  should  go  out 
of  love  for  Christ.

coming  just  onceaweek  for  chapel  butldon't  feel  it's  worth  the 
trouble  to  come  more  often  than  that.  Other  than  that,  it's  nice 
to  see  everybody.  Worships  are  different.  They  maybe  should 
be  required,  but  we  should  just  be  allowed  more  than  one  skip  a 

Heidi  Martin,  sophomore,  nursing.  Louisville,  Ohio:  I  do 
think  we  should  be  encouraged  to  go  to  worships.  After  all,  we 
are  in  a  Christian  school  by  our  own  choice  (I  hope).  But  I  feel 
the  policy  for  worship  attendance  is  due  for  some  change  and 
more  flexibility.

Life  at  Camp  Khoa-I-Dang 


During  Christmas  break 
Student  Missionary  Peggy 
King  worked  at  a  Cambodian 
refugee  camp  in  Khoa-I-Dang 
about  15  kilometers  fi-om  the 
Thai-Cambodian  border.    The 
following  article  is  the  high- 
lights of  a  letter  she  sent  to 
the  Student  Missions  club. 


The  camp  I  worked  at  had 
over  86,000  refiigees  with  an 
850-bed  hospital.  The  build- 
ing was  made  from  bamboo 
lined  with  blue  plastic.  The 
patients  have  to  sleep  on  grass 
mats  placed  on  bed  frames. 
The  floor  is  rock.  There  are 
only  holes  in  the   waUs   for 


"nurse,"  giving  shots,  pass- 
ing out  pills  and  starting  IVs. 
The  worst  part  was  watching 
them  suffer,  especially  when 
you  knew  that  under  normal 
circumstances  they  wouldn't 
have  to  suffer  and  their 
chances  of  getting  well  could 
be  better. 

One  of  my  patients  was 
going  blind;  he  couldn't  be 
helped  unless  he  had  a  very 
delicate  surgery  by  a  spe- 
cialist. Another  patient  had  a 
temperature  of  106  degrees 
every  afternoon.  The  doctors 
couldn't  diagnose  the  pro- 
blem, so  there  was  nothing  we 
could  do  but  give  him  a  couple 
aspirin  and  sponge  him  with 


refugees,  as  they  hope  to  see 
some  friend  or  family  member 
that  they  are  missing. 

Everyone  has  a  sad  story  to 
tell  about  Pol  Pot's  army 
killing  family  and  friends  only 
because  they  were  educated  or 
about  seeing  loved  ones  slowly 
die  of  starvation  and  not  being 
able  to  do  anything.    But  they

windows,  so  by  II  a.m.  the 
flies  are  thick. 

The  hospital  was  mostly 
filled  with  malaria,  tubercu- 
losis, bacterial  pneumonia, 
anemia  and  malnourished 
patients.  The  hospital  was 
comprised  of  eleven  wards- 
each    one    was     run     by     ^

different  organization.  The 
German  operate  the  surgery 
ward,  the  French  lead  out  in 
the  obstetrics  and  TB  ward. 
the  Catholics  direct  the  inten- 
sive feeding  ward  (this  is 
where  the  very  malnourished 
children  are  fed  special  food 
and  the  mothers  are  taught 
how  to  feed  them  properly). 
The  Seventh-day  Adventists 
operate  the  general  medical 
ward  and  the  Thai  Red  Cross 
also  operates  the  general 
medical  ward. 

They  were  short  of  nurses  at 
the    time,    so    I    became    a 


The  refugees  arrived  every 
day  in  trucks.  They  were 
taken  off  one  by  one  and 
carefully  inspected  along  with 
their  few  belongings.  They 
then  were  given  a  quick 
physical  examination  and  the 
,  sick  ones  were  sent  to  the 
hospital.  The  rest  divided 
themselves  up  into  groups  of 
100  and  chose  a  leader  (usu- 
ally someone  who  coufd  speak 
both  English  and  French). 
They  then  went  to'  the  as- 
signed place  to  begin

terials. All  of  this  is  very

life.  A  few  eyes  ate  dull  with 
hopelessness, "  but  most  still 
tumble  with  determination 
that  says  they  are  willing  to  try 
again  if  given  the  chancel 

The  biggest  problem  of  the 
whole  camp  was  water — the 
lack  of  it.  The  refugees  would 
wait  for  hours  by  the  water 
tanks  waiting  for  the  water 
trucks  to  come.  They  would 
get  their  family's  ration  of  one 
or  two  buckets  of  water  to 
cook,  drink  and  bathe  with. 
When  I  left,  they  were  digging 
a  well  with  hopes  that  this 
would  alleviate  the  problem

Someone  once  commented: 
"Since  I  began  to  beg  God's 
blessing  on  my  studies,  I  have 
done  more  in  one  week  than  in 
a  whole  year  before."  Luther, 
when  most  pressed  by  his 
work,  said, '  "I  have  so  much  to 
do  that  I  cannot  get  on  without 
three  hours  a  day  praying." 
We  cannot  afford  to  sacrifice 
communion  with  God.

Evans  and  his  one-room  par-

secrate the  confusion  of  your

Students  to  Assist  in   Health    Fair 


OTricia  Smith 

The  Southern  Missionary 
College  Division  of  Nursing 
and  the  Georgia-Cumberland 
Conference  are  sponsoring  the 
nursing  students  who  choose 
to  participate  in  the  Atlanta 
health  fair  April  13  through 
18. 

Last  year  the  program  was 
conducted  in  six  major  cities  in 
the  United  States,  and  in 
April,  1979,  the  Seventh-day 
Adventists  were  asked  to  co- 
ordinate three  sites  in  Atlanta. 
More  than  60  SMC  students 
manned  these  areas.  This 
year  the  Seventh-day  Ad- 
ventist  Church  is  sponsoring  a 
health  fair  at  the  Smyrna 
Hospital. 

During  the  week,  screening 
centers  at  areas  throughout 
the  city  will  provide  basic  tests 
for  blood  pressure,  anemia 
and  blood  chemistry.  Other 
stations  will  be  screening  for 
glaucoma,  hearing,  oral  can- 
cer, sickle  cell  anemia,  cervi- 
cal cancer  and  lung  capacity. 
Counselors  at  the  fair  will  give 
advice  to  individuals  on  im- 
proving their  heath  and  will 
make  referrals  when  problems 
are  discovered. 

The  charge  for  a  person 
being  screened  is  S6,  $8  for 
optional  blood  tests.  It  is 
estimated  that  35,000  people 
are  expected  to  take  advan- 
tage of  the  free  screenings  this 
year  at  50  different  sites. 

The  Atlanta  screening  pro- 
gram is  being  sponsored  by 
WSB-TV,  American  Red 
Cross,  Blue  Cross  and  Blue 
Shield,  with  over  250  other 
medical/non-medical  com- 
munity organizations  partici- 
pating. At  least  100  students 
will  be  needed  on  Thursday, 
April  17  and  will  receive  lab 
credit  for  their  day  spent  at 
the  fair.  Absences  will  be 
excused  from  college  classes 
and  free  transportation  and 
food  will  be  provided  for  the 
volunteers. 

Volunteers  will  be  leaving

All  of  the  students  dropped 
out  of  college  to  serve  as 
student  missionaries  for  six 
months  in  the  refugee  camps 
located  along  the  Thai- 
Cambodian  border 

The  SM  s  calls  came  as  a 
result  of  the  program  in  which 
SMC  students  and  faculty 
donated  S8125  for  the  Cam- 
bodian relief  project.  The 
money  was  sent  to  Seventh-

Dear  Editor: 

On  Saturday  evening, 
March  15,  I  went  to  the 
cafeteria  for  supper,  and  they 
gave  almost  everyone  a  carry- , 
out  tray,  even  those  going  to ' 
eat  in  the  cafeteria.  They  still 
charged  us  10  cents  for  the 
cany-out  tray.  I  don't  think 
they  should  have  charged  us 
for  the  carry-out  when  we 
.didn't  even  ask  for  one. 

Another  thing  1  would  like 


to  say  about  the  cafeteria  is 
that  I  wish  they  would  start 
making  the  coble  bread  every 
Friday  like  they  started  to 
in  February.  I  used  to  look! 
forward  to  going  to  supper  on 
Friday  evenings  just  to  get  the 
coble  bread  for  my  Sabbath 
morning  breakfast.  Please 
start  making  it  again.

The    Umbrella    That  Should  Not  be  Put  Away 


It  has  been  a  common  sight 
on  campus  of  late.  It  comes  in 
allsizestofit  every  need.  It  is 
available  in  a  rainbow  of  colors 
and  a  wide  spectrum  of  styles 
to  accomodate  any  individual 
laste.  There  are  few  scenes 
more  colorful  and  captivating 
than  watching  a  foaming  sea 
of  "it"  returning  from  a 
chapel — one  of  the  basic  ne- 
cessities of  life  in  Collegedale. 

This  past  week  we've  no- 
ticed some  that  approached 
the  size  of  canvas  cathedrals, 
and  others  that  looked  more 
like  a  skull  cap.  We've  heard 
complaints   that    several,    re-

Christ's  protectiv 
forgiveness  is  much  like  the 
umbrella.  It  comes  in  a  size 
big  enough  for  any  need.  It, 
too,  is  mobile — it  goes  wher- 
ever vou  do.  Like  the  um- 
brella, it  appeals  to  a  broad 
range  of  personalities — from 
the  docile  to  the  dynamic. 

Some  people  try  substi- 
tutes— none  of  which  work  for 
long.  It  is  possible  to  "pur-

How  do  you  feel  about  having 
music  festival  held  at  SMC? 

Rick  Birkhead.  sophomore,  pre-physical  therapy.  Calhoun. 
Ga. :  I  really  enjoyed  it.  Not  only  did  it  add  musical  variety,  but 
it  also  added  variety  to  the  females  on  campus. 


Tonua  Barley,  senior,  commumcations.  Decator.  Ala.:  I 
didn't  enjoy  it  as  much  as  I  have  in  the  past  but  that's  because  I 
wasn't  involved  as  much  this  time.  I  think  it's  great  for  the  kids 
who  come  and  the  people  who  get  to  hear  it, 


Joy  Webster,  sophomore,  office  administration,  Henderson- 
ville.  Tenn.:  It's  all  right,  except  for  the  kids  are  running 
around  and  the  cafeteria  lines  are  long. 

Lori  Fales.  freshman,  office  administration,  Hagerstown. 
Md.:  I  think  it's  nice  that  we  can  associate  with  some  different 
kids  from  the  academies. 

Mike  Stone,  senior,  industrial  technology.  Columbia,  S.C.: 
Personally,  I  liked  it — enjoyed  it  in  academy  and  brought  back 
good  memories.  Since  I'm  a  choir  member,  I  especially  enjoyed 
the  festival  choir  numbers. 


Bill  Lopes,  sophomore,  communications,  Pawtucket,  R.I.:  I 
don't  mind  it  at  all — didn't  get  a  chance  to  hear  much  of  their 
music  but  it's  a  good  opportunity  for  the  academy  students  to 
get  a  taste  of  college  life. 

David  May,  freshman,  chemistry,  Elizabethton,  Tenn.:  I 
wasn't  here  this  weekend,  but  I  enjoyed  listening  to  my  stereo 
at  home. 

Mark  Stubbs,  jreshman,  nursing,  Ringgold,  Ga. :   Oh  I  think 
it's  wonderful,  it's  inspiring,  groovy  (ha  ha).    We  should  have 
;  rock  concerts  (i.e.  Ted  Nugent).

Plane  Crash  Kills  Two  Men 


DTricia  Smith 

Goldman  P.  Maynaid.  36,  of 
Apison.  Tenn..  and  Phillip  M. 
Gass,  Jr.,  21,  of  Trenton,  Ga., 
were  killed  in  a  plane  crash  in 
East  Hamilton  County 
Wednesday,  March  26,  at  6:41 
p.m. 

Maynard,  pilot  of  the  craft, 
was  described  as  an 
experienced  pilot,  had  rented 
the  craft  from  the  Collegedale 
Airport  just  10  minutes  before 
the  crash. 

The  plane  crashed  in  the 
back  yard  of  Mr.  and  Mrs- 
Leigh  Smith,  skidded  several 
yards  and  flipped  over,  pin- 
ning both  men  in  the  smashed 

Tri-Community  Fire 

Department  rescuers  called  in 
on  the  crash  and  found 
Maynard  dead  in  the  craft. 
Gass  was  revived  but  died 
minutes  after  being  carried  to 


Erlanger  Medical  Center  in 
Chattanooga. 

Friends  of  the  pilot  who 
rushed  to  the  scene  after  the 
crash  said  that  Maynard  had 
been  banking  the  craft  low  to 
Bill  Jones  Road,  planning  to 
buzz  the  home  of  his  cousin. 

After  striking  161.000-volt 
TVA  power  lines  the  plane 
crashed  less  than  100  yards 
from  the  cousin's  house. 

One  block  away,  Marc 
Edwards,  a  volunteer  with  the 
Tri-Community  Fire  Depart- 
ment, was  standing  in  his 
driveway  talking  with  his 
father  when  the  crash 
occurred,  "We  heard  a  plane 
and  stepped  over  to  where  we 
could  see  it.  My  father  said 
that  the  plane  was  flying  too 
low.  It  was  in  a  slight  left 
back  in  a  descending  pattern. 
Right   after  we   saw    it,    the 


plane  hit  the  TVA  lines.  He 
lost  a  wing  and  went  into  a 
spin  and  flip  and  it  ^tatted 
straight  down." 

TVA  engineers  were  called  out 
after  the  incident  to  inspect 
the  high-voltage  lines  strung 
over  Bill  Jones  Road,  but  none 
of  the  lines  had  broken. 

The  small  Cessna  150  U 
destroyed  in  the  crash  was  a 
new  plane  with  less  than  100 
hours  of  flight  time  on  it. 

Hamilton  County  Sheriff 
officials  roped  off  the  area 
around  the  crash  sight  in  the 
Smith's  back  yard  late  Wed- 
nesday night.  They  were 
awaiting  the  arrival  of  Federal 
Aviation  officials  from 
Knoxville  to  begin  an  investi- 


SDA  Publishing  Houses  to  Merge 


The  smallest  and  the  second 
largest  of  three  Seventh-day 
Adventist  publishing  houses 
in  the  Unijed  States  have 
agreed  to  /  operate  jointly 
under  one  management. 

The  decision  was  made  in 
Washington.  D.C.,  Mar.  20,  at 
a  joint  constituency  meeting 
involving  both  houses.  The  ■ 
smallest,   the  Southern    Pub-

in  Nashville,  Tennessee,  and 
the  second  largest,  the  Review

All  assets  and  liabilities  of 
both  houses  will  be  combined 
under  the  cooperative  struc- 
ture. The  corporate  name 
under  the  merger  will  be 
Review  and  Herald  Publishing 
Association.  However,  pub- 
lications under  both  names 
will  continue. 

Harold  F.  Otis,  Jr.,  general 
manager  of  the  Review  and 
Herald,  has  been  elected  to 
manage  the  joint  operation. 
The  complete  set  of  new 
officers  will  be  elected  on 
April  3.  W.  Ross  Wollard, 
general  manager  of  Southern, 
Publishing  Association,  plans 
to  retire  this  fall. 

The  joint  operation  is  an 
outgrowth  of  the  need  to 
utilize  the  high-speed,  sophis- 
ticated equipment  already  in 
operation  at  the  Washington, 
D.C.  plant.  A  31-inch  web 
press  on  order  for  delivery  to 
the  Review  and  Herald  will  be 
installed  in  the  Nashville

Opinions 

Guest  editorial  by  Greg  Vital 

Across  the  nation  the  Presidential  Primaries  have  begun. 

This  selection  process  provides  the  voters  of  individual  states 
the  opportunity  to  make  their  choice  for  the  Republican  and 
Democratic  candidates  for  president.  On  May  6,  1980, 
Tennessee  voters  will  be  able  to  participate  in  its  first 
Presidential  Primary.  Already  the  major  candidates  in  both 
political  parties  are  beginning  to  emerge. 

New  Deal  Democrats  seem  to  find  continuing  hope  for  their 
liberalism  in  selecting  Ted  Kennedy.  Loyal  Democrats  are 
attempting  to  follow  their  incumbent  leader  Jimmy  Carter. 

On  the  Republican  side  Ronald  Reagan  has  taken  a  decisive 
lead.  His  strong  stands  on  American  leadership  and  fiscal 
responsibility  have  made  him  acceptable  to  both  conservatives 
and  independents.  George  Bush  is  struggling  to  attract 
moderates  who  wish  Gerald  Ford  had  decided  to  run.  And  John 
Anderson,  the  only  "liberal  Republican",  is  finding  his  support 
mainly  dissatisfied  Democrats  and  Independents. 

All  political  philosophies  are  represented.  Never  before  has 
America  needed  new  leadership  and  direction.  Our  choices  on 
May  6  can  help  set  our  nation's  destiny.  Don't  wait  until 
November  to  elect  a  new  president.  Act  now  to  make  your 
choice  for  the  man  who  can  best  represent  you  in  November.

The  Students'  Responsibility  to  Their  College 


Dear  Editor: 

Each  person  who  becomes 
affiliated  with  an  institution, 
whether  it  be  social,  industrial 
or  educational,  not  only  bene- 
fits ft-om  the  organization,  but 
takes  unto  himself  certain 
obligations.  Every  student 
attending  SMC  enjoys  all  the 
benefits  that  the  college  offers 
and  in  turn  is  responsible  for 
fulfilling  certain  roles  speci- 
fied or  unspecified  hy  the 
college. 

What  is  my  responsibility  to 
the  college?  As  a  student  I  am 
expected  to  support  the  prin- 
ciples, philosophies  and  ob- 
jectives of  the  college.  This 
does  not  mean  that  1  must 
subscribe  to  the  status  quov 


thus  perpetuating  present 
patterns  of  conduct,  thought 
and  practice.  I  may  strive  to 
bring  about  changes, 
improvements  or  modifica- 
tions within  the  established 
parameters  and  still  be  loyal  to 
my  school. 

If,  as  responsible  students, 
we  recognize  our  fellow 
students  departing  from  the 
"path  of  rectitude"  into  forms 
of  conduct  that  are  frowned 
upon  by  the  college,  then  by 
applying  appropriate  negative 
sanctions  we  could  help 
uphold  the  standards  of  our 
institution.  Not  only  must  we 
seek  to  benefit  educationally 
or   otherwise,    but    we    must 


seek  to  enhance  the  s 


The  I 


i  of 


le  or  prestige  of  a 
college  is  dependent  not  so 
much  on  its  lecturers  or 
president,  but  rather  upon  the 
nature  of  its  student  popula- 
tion. SMC  will  not  rise  any 
higher  in  the  esteem  of  the 
public  than  the  perceptions 
society  holds  of  her  students. 
Let  us,  therefore,  remove  from 
our  campus  those  patterns  of 
behavior  which  are  not  whole- 
some and  which  are  counter- 
productive to  us  and  the 
college.  Let  SMC  remain  an 
oasis  in  the  valley  for  God's 
beloved  children. 
Sincerely, 
Herbert  Shand 


Shall  we  continue  on  in  your  life  as  a  registered  voter?  You' 
have  registered,  haven't  you? 

Well,  the  next  step,  after  getting  the  go-ahead  vote  from  the 
post  office,  is  to  decide  who  in  the  worid  to  help  to  the  Oval 
Office.  In  order  to  do  that,  one  must  know  who  is  in  the  race 
(this  is  where  intelligence  comes  in).  Follow  up  on  each 
potential  presidential  hopeful.  Who  are  they?  What  were  they 
and  why?  What  are  their  goals?  Evaluate  the  kind  of  education  ' 
and  experience  they  possess.  Investigate  what  they  have  to 
offer  as  well  as  their  social  and  family  life.  How  do  they  conduct 
themselves? 

Just  think  a  minute.  The  person  who  is  elected  will  guide  our 
country  through  wealth  and  poverty,  in  sickness  and  health,  for 
four  years.  The  least  you  can  do  is  decide,  intelligently  and 
maturely,  who  to  choose.  Talking  to  others  and  getting  their 
ideas  might  be  helpful  also. 

Straighten  up  and  pay  attention  1  The  person  who  gets 
elected  will  see  some  of  us  through  college  and  suggest  laws 
that  can  help  or  hinder  your  first  years  in  "the  real  worid." 
Wouldn't  it  be  nice  to  know  something  about  him?  dlw

Dear  Hditor: 

We'd  like  to  express  our 
appreciation  for  the  article 
'  'Tired  of  Complaints  and 
Cuts"  in  the  last  issue  of  the 
Accent.  We've  been  wanting 
to  say  something  like  that  for 
quite  some  time  and  just  never 
did.  It  seems  so  easy  to  miss 
the  real  reason  of  being  here 
by  getting  "hung-up"  on 
issues  not  essential  to  our 
education  or  our  salvation. 

It's  like  a  love  relationship. 
If  we  dwell  on  the  negative 
aspects,  the  negative  aspects 
become  foremost  in  our  minds- 
and  the  beautiful,  positive 
aspects  once  held  in  top 
priority  go  unspoken  of  and 
may     eventually     slip     into  ' 


why  not  enjoy  the  hedge  of     about  the  thorns,

2  -  THE  SOUTHERN  ACCENT  Thursday.  April  10,  1980 


editorial 


TTiere  are  certain  traditional  signs  of  spring  one,looks  for  around 
April— the  first  robin,  the  budding  of  the  first  crocus,  and  so  on. 
After  two  years  in  Happy  Valley,  I  have  schooled  myself  to  look 
beyond  these  obvious  tokens  of  spring  and  delve  further  for  the  true 
emblems.  I've  come  up  with  quite  a  few. 

First,  look  around  you  during  a  class  period  (if  that's  where 
you've  decided  to  go)  and  note  how  many  people  aren't  there.  If 
you  aren't  in  class,  take  a  look  around  the  dam,  recognize  anyone? 

Pay  attention  to  the  peculiar  and  nauseatingly  sweet  smell  of  Sea 
and  Ski  coconut  oil  wafting  through  the  dorms  and  every  other  place 
imaginable.  After  you  "scence"  the  Tropical  Blend,  watch  for  the 
color  variations  on  the  sun  enthusiasts  faces.  I  've  found  they  range 
|from  a  bright  lobster  red  to  a  murky  mud  brovm.  Their  bodies  also 
tend  to  have  a  slightly  slippery  appearance. 

Another  symbol  is  the  lack  of  winter  steam  rising  up  out  of 
strategic  camoflouged  corners. 

Also,  around  springtime  I  find  that  mem- 
tiers  of  the  opposite  sex  have  trouble  walking 
straight,  they  must  lean  on  one  another  in 
order  to  get  anywhere. 

These  are  just  a  few  of  the  signs,  if  you've 
been  looking  closely,  you'll  find  that  most  of 
them  are  somewhat  observable. 

Even  without  the  Good  Humor  ice  cream 
man,  spring  has  come  to  SMC.

Dr.  "Boots"  Kuhlman  Retires  After  34  Years 


n  Dana  West 

"I  originally  started  out  in 
ptiysics,  but  when  I  switched 
colleges,  they  didn't  offer  it  there 
so  I  went  Into  biology  instead," 
Dr.  H.  H.  "Boots"  Kuhlman 
rememtjered. 


Dr.  Kuhlman  will  retire  this 
semester  after  34  years  of  teach- 
ing. He  estimates  he's  taught 
between  8,000  and  10,000  stu- 
dents since  he  came  here  in  1946. 

Dr.  Kuhlman  is  chairman  of  the 
biology  department  and  teaches 
classes  in  anatomy,  physiology 
and  biology.  He  will  remain  on 
the  faculty  staff  as  a  part-time 
instructor. 

His  office  is  packed  with  every 
kind  of  biology  book  imaginable. 
He's  also  kept  every  record  txwk 
he  has  used  since  coming  here, 
over  34  grade  txMks  all  tolled. 

During  his  biology  training  at 
Emmanuel  Missionary  College 
(Andrews),  "Boots"  enjoyed 
"working  with  live  material  that 
the  Lord  created"  the  more  he 
studied,  the  more  it  pointed  to  the 
creation.  This  is  what  he  tries  to 
get  through  to  his  students. 

After  graduating  rrom  EMC, 
Dr.  Kuhlman  taught  in  high 
schools  in  Oklahoma,  Michigan 
and   Tennessee   before  coming 


here.  He  received  his  master  at 
Peabody  College  in  Nashville  and 
his  Ph.D.  at  the  University  of 
Tennessee- Knoxville. 

He  sums  up  his  experiences  at 
SMC  as  "enjoyable  and  highly 
rewarding  in  that  when  I  pick  up 
an  Adventist  journal,  I'll  see  the 
name  of  a  student  I  taught  doing 
something  worthwhile.  It's  a 
goodfeeling."  A  good  part  of  the 
faculty  had  him  for  an  instructor. 

Dr.  Kuhlman  is  looking  forward 
to  "catching  his  breath"  and, 
perhaps  doing  some  traveling 
after  retirement.

A  Lineage  That's  Better  Than  William  Bray's 


He    had    his    Bachelor    of 
Divinity  degree— from 

Harvard.  His  name.  William 
Bray,  had  a  certain  historic 
ring  to  it.  As  he  showed  us 
through  the  old  plantation 
home,  inherited  from  past 
generations,  stories  and  facts 
poured  out  like  ice  from  the 
CK's  ice  machine-  The  house 
was  built  in  1837  by  another 
William  Bray.  During  the 
Civil  War,  silverware  and 
china  were  secreted  -around 
the  spring  to  evade  the  forag- 
ing troups  of  General 
Sherman.  The  house  was 
ransacked,  but  the  plates  were 


preachers.  William  O.  Bray  addition  to  the  home  in  the  with  beautiful, 
was  a  Methodist  minister.  His-  early  1900's  by  planting  "  "-"■  *—^"'" 
much-faded       picture       was    after 


William's 


lines    tenderly    washed     the 

„,_ ^ .,_„    _ andfie'ld  after  field     sides    of    the     rolling     hills 

dominated  by  a  patriarchal  of  daffodils— 26  varieties  in  springing  from  them.  And 
beard.  He  had  preached  on  all.  Their  beauty  adorned  and  always,  there  were  the 
^  — ^^^^^^^M^^^^^^ii  ^     daffodils  on  a  clear  spring  day 

*     was  a  true  delight. 

On  the  hike  back,  we 
stopped  at  the  daffodil  bulb 
house  which  was  now  a  study 
for  William.  On  the  wall  hung 
the  Bray  family  pedigree 
which  had  been  retrieved  from 
a  small  town  just  south  of 
London.  The  chart  began  with 
William  the  Conqueror's  pre- 
sentation of  a  tract  of  land  to 
yet  another  WilHam  Bray  in 
1086.       For    a    "PK"    with 


John  mcvay 


the  stumps  of  Marthasville —  perfumed  the  spring  day. 
modern  Atlanta.    The  stumps 

served  as  his  pulpit  because  William  took  us  for  a  long 

the  first  church  had  yet  to  be  hike  around  the  140  acres  that 

built  in  the  small  settlement,  remained       from       previous 

family  of        Minni^  Bray  had  made  her  thousands.    Reflecting  ponds 


personal     "roots' '     in     many 
places  and  no  place  in  particu- 
lar, it  was  a  fairy  tale.    Oh,  to

I  do — and  better.

Chorale  Presents 
"The  Music  Man" 


DDonnette  Lowe 

Meredith  Willson's  two-act 
musical  ' 'The  Music  Man' ' 
will  be  performed  by  the

given  Sunday,  April  13,  at  3

April  14,  at  7:30  p.m. 

Set  in  the  small  town  of 
River  Ci^,  Iowa,  in  1910,  the 
play  follows  Professor  Harold 
Hill,  a  traveling  salesman,  in 
his  attempts  to  convince  the 
townspeople  that  he  is  a 
musician.  While  he  tries  to 
change  the  town's  way  of  life, 
there  is  a  touch  of  romance  in 
Hill's  pursuit  of  the  town 
librarian,  Marian.  As  Hill 
becomes  enamoured  with  the 
good  people  of  Iowa,  he  finds 
that  he  is  becoming  an  upright 
citizen  instead  of  changing  the 

The  play  is  under  the  direc- 
tion of  Don  Runyan,  associate 
professor     of     music,     with

What  Steven  Would  Like  to  Have  Written 


I  wos  given  the  opportunity 
write  24  articles  this  year. 
at's  a  lot  of  times  to  say 
at  you  want  to,  but  now  as 
we  come  to  the  end  of  another 
school  year,  I  find  that  there''' 

e  that  could  be  said.  So  in 
this  week's  column,  ray  next 

0  the  last  for  the  year,  I  have 
reserved  it  for  writing  about 
;tories  I  never  write  for  one 
eason  or  another. 

One  possibility  was  "A  Day 
in  the  Life  of  a  Theology 
Vlajor."  but  since  there 
ivasn't  enough  material  to  fill 

1  whole  column,  1  didn't  write 

One  I  really  wanted  to  write 
vas  "The  Reason  I  Didn't  Get 
Asked  to  the  Women's  Recep- 


Steven  dickerhoff 


tion."  It  would  have  been 
hard,  since  I  don't  know  the 
reason  why  I  didn't  get  asked. 
The  one  that  would  have 
helped  a  lot  of  people,  "What 
You  Can  Do  on  a  Saturday 
Night  when  the  Saxophone 
Quartet  Concert  is  Sold  Out," 
wasn't  written  because  every- 
body already  knew  what  to 
do — anything  else!

of  two.  They  are— my  health 
is  more  important  than  my 
grades,  and  I  went  last  week. 

1  was  going  to  do  "Dating

"The  Good  Ole  Days"  was 
going  to  be  a  trip  down 
memory  lane,  back  to  the 
beginning  of  the  year  when — 
gas  was  only  90  cents  a  gallon. 
you  still  had  four  chapel  skips 
to  use,  midterm  exams  hadn't 
yet  broken  your  determination 
for  a  4.00  GPA  and  you  still 
referred  to  fmal  exams  like 
you  do  a  distant  great-aunt. 
But  now  life  has  changed.  I 
would  have  written  this  one 
but  at  the  beginning  of  the 
year  when  there  was  still  nine 
months  of  school,  but  now 
there's  only  three  weeks  left. 

One  I  .was  really  going  to 
enjoy  researching  was  "Dean

tered, but  they  feel  that  going 
to  the  race  and  participating 
will  be  a  good  experience  and 
something  to  work  for  in  the 
future. 

"Through  running,  there  is 
an  excellent  chance  to  show 
off  something  that  not  many 
others  have — that  is  our 
health  message,"  said 
Stanaway.

—^  by  patti  gentry 


Who  is  your  favorite  presi- 
dential candidate  and  why 
would  you  urge  orthers  to  vote 
for  him? 

Dannie  SommerviUe,  freshman,  pre-med,  Asheville.  N.C.:  I 
would  vote  for  Ford  except  he's  not  running.  Carter  hasn't 
ruined  things  yet,  so  I  guess  he  takes  my  vote,  but  he  hasn't 
inything  either. 


Sunday  night  at  7  the  two 
swim  teams  met  to  prove  their 
skill  and  finesse.  The  team 
captains  were  Bud  Greenlee 
and  Jackson  Bowen. 

The  first  event  was  the 
50-yard  freestyle.  In  the 
men's  section,  Bowen  took 
first  place,  with  a  timing  of 
26.7,  one  second  behind  the 
previous     record.  Richie 

Moore  took  second  place  with 
a  final  time  of  26.9.  In  the 
women's  section,  Debbie 
Hartsock  came  in  first;  how- 
ever, since  she  is  a  faculty 
member  instead  of  a  student, 
her  timings  could  not  be 
considered  records.  Tamara 
Dortch  set  a  new  record  of 
30.3,  and  Cindy  Henderson 
took  second  place  at  31.2. 

The  second  event  was  the 
50-yard  breaststroke.  Lauren 
Middag  took  first  place  in  the 
men's  section  with  37.4,  while 
Glenn  Greenlee  came  in 
second  with  38.2.  In  the 
women's  section.  Hartsock 
took  first  place  followed  by 
Kay  Rozell. 

In  the  50-yard  backstroke, 
both  records  for  men  and 
women  were  broken.  Rowland 
Knight  set  the  new  record  of 
31.4  with  Bud  Greenlee  taking 
second  with  33.2  for  the  men's 
section.  For  the  women,  Joy 
Leggett  set  the  new  record  of 
39.2  and  Kay  Rozell  took 
second  with  39.9. 

The  next  event  was  the 
50-yard   butterfly.  ,   For   the

The  grueling  six-mile  run

Price  emerged  at  the  top  with

points;  Brad  Schultz  won  third 
place  with  9  individual  points. 

All  winners  of  this  year's 
events  will  go  on  record;  their

Wbmen's  Hockey  Folds 


The  death  of  a  sport  is  a 
painful  thing.  Women's  floor 
hockey  folded  this  year  due  to 
an  apparent  lack  of  interest. 

Two   prevalent    '  'cardinal 
sins",     according     to     Carla 
Kamieneski,  coordinator, 

were  players  signing  up  for 
others  who  didn't  intend  to 
play,  and  players  signing  up 
themselves — then  not  show- 
ing up.  Thoughtless  irrespon- 
sibility like  this  results  in  not 
only  an  inconvenience  and  loss 
to  the  department  which  must

hindat32'/j.  Middag  took  the 
highest  score  of  38  points  for 
the  jacknife.  Nance  Richards 
scored  35 '/i. 

For  the  selected  dives, 
David  Lacy  did  the  I'/i  pike 
and  scored  38'/j.  Mario 
Colangelo  got  41  for  a  I'/i 
tuck.  Henderson  scored  42'/2 
points  for  an  inward  pike. 
Mike  Kress  scored  the  highest 
of  all  the  dives  with  his  inward 
I '/]  tuck  with  44  points.  The 
totals  for  the  diving  competi- 


arrange  scheduled  time,  floor 
space,  officials,  and  equip- 
ment for  the  games,  but  also 
prevents  team  members  and 
others  who  signed  up  from 
being  able  to  play.  It  has 
caused  a  general  disappoint- 
ment all  around. 

In  consolation,  free  play  is 
being  offered  on  a  trial  basis. 
Women  interested  in  polish- 
ing their  hockey  skills  can  play 
Tuesday  nights  at  8  and

A  Thank  You  to  God  for  Contrasts  in  Nature 


editorial 


The  day  I've  been  waiting  for  has  finally  arrived— the  one  in 
which  I  could  write  this  editorial.  This  year  has  reaily  been  a 
great  one  for  me  because  I  have  really  made  many  great  friends. 
Most  of  them  have  had  a  great  part  in  helping  me  get  an  issue  of 
the  Accent  out  each  week. 

My  staff  has  been  the  best.  The  columnists  could  always  be 
counted  on,  and  the  production  staffs  teamword  especially 
shmed  through  when  1  was  out  of  the  office.  I  have  also 
appreciated  each  one's  willingness  to  stay  with  the  job 
throughout  the  entire  year,  even  when  it  got  to  be  in  the  pits. 
1  also  can  t  overlook  the  unending  support  that  Miss  Frances 
Andrews  gave  the  paper,  even  during  the  times  when  things  got 
a  httle  bit  hot.  ^    ^ 

And  a  big  thanks  to  all  you  readers  for  your  interest  in  this 
year  s  paper.  This  is  really  what  has  made  it  worth  workine  for 
Keep  It  up,  next  year's  eidtors  will  need  it.  too. 

To  sum  it  all  up.  the  best  thing  about  this  who'le  year  was 
being  able  to  get  involved.  It  has  given  me  a  good  break  from 
allthebusyworkofstudymg.  If  you're  needing  a  br^ak  get 
mvolved  m  some  kmd  of  extracurricular  activity  next  year  It 
will  make  a  difference  in  your  year  at  SMCI 


Dear  Editor: 

It  has  been  a  truly  signifi- 
cant experience  for  my  wife 
and  I  over  the  past  several 
months  as  we  live  here  in 
Collegedale  as  part  of  the 
SMC  family. 

When  we  arrived  here  in 
July  last  year  it  was  a  beauti- 
ful summer  day.  Although  it 
rained  for  several  days  shortly 
after,  the  rest  of  the  summer 
was  reminiscent  of  our  sunny 
Caribbean  and  we  felt  right  at 

As  the  summer  faded  into 
autumn  we  noticed  the 
grandual  change  in  the  flora 
and  were  really  inspired  as  we 
beheld  the  grandeur  and 
beauty  of  the  changing  hues. 
This  was  a  first  for  us,  and  we 
made  sure  to  store  some  of 
those  delightful  scenes  on 
film. 

Soon  the  colors  of  autumn 
were  lost  as  the  leaves 
fluttered  one  by  one  to  the 
earth  beneath,  later  to  be 
carried  away  by  the  truck- 
loads.  We  then  looked  for- 
ward rather  timidly,  to  the 
cold    weather— another    first 


foru 

Having  spent  all  our  days  in 
the  exotic  tropics,  we  had  a 
somewhat  hidden  fear  of  the 
cold.  Nevertheless  we  looked 


forward  to  the  snow  (which  we 
thought  represented  the 
summit  of  the  cold),  and  when 
it  did  not  snow  we  actually 
wished  that  it  would.  At  last  it 
came  and  we  were  rather 
surprised  to  find  that  it  was 
not  so  cold  after  all.    Not  only

As  we  teuch  the  petals, 
laugh  at  the  sunshine,  take 
shots  of  th%  autumn  leaves, 
play  in  the  snow,  listen  to  the 
birds,  we  can  indeed  giv^ 
thanks  to  God  for  the  beauty 
found  in  nature^*. 


anticipated,  but  we  discovered 
beauty  in  the  impecable  carpet 
of  white  that  covered  the  earth 
and  brilliance  from  the  icy 
accumulation  that  reflected 
the  sun's  rays  like  polished 
diamonds  from  the  branches 
of  the  pine,  oak,  and  maple  on 
the  hillside. 

Now  it  is  spring-time.  We 
see  it  in  the  opening  buds — 
golden,  purple,  red,  white  and 
many  other  exciting  colors;  we 
hear  it  in  the  chirping  of  the 
birds;  and  we  feel  it  in  the 
breeze.  We  know  it,  because 
everywhere  we  recognize  the 
rebirth  of  nature. 

Our  few  months  in  the 
States  and  here  at  SMC  have 
alerted  us  to  the  tremendous 
contrast  of  beauty  and  splen- 
dor that  is  the  dynamic  activity 
of  the  changing  seasons.  The 
experiences  of  these  months 
have  brought  new  meaning  to 
such  statements  as  "whiter 
than  snow"  and  "the  autumn 


Ladies  of 
SMC  Are 
Praised 


Dear  Editor: 

This  being  the  last  issue  of 
the  Accent  for  the  year  79-80, 
we  would  like  to  express  our 
gratitude  to  the  ladies  of 
Southern  Missionary  College 
for  their  Christian  dedication, 
attitude,  and  demeanor.  We 
count  it  a  privilege  to  be 
associated  with  them,  and 
thank  God  that  He  has  blessed 
us  with  them.  The  ladies  of 
SMC  have  been  a  rich  blessing 
to  us  this  year,  and  we  would 
like  to  say  thanks,  God  bless, 
and  have  a  good  s 
love  you  all!

^  Blif  ^'''^  Vietnam  Should  Have  Taught  Us 


students  of  SQuthern  Missionary  CollegB. 


ary  Colleoa, 


This  week  marks  the  .ui,, 
anniversary  of  the  end  of  the 
Vietnam  war.  One  would  have 
hoped  that  our  experience  in 
Vietnam  would  have  shown  us 
the  true  nature  of  war,  and 
that  we  would  thus  be  more 
hesitant  to  resort  to  it  or  the 
threat  of  it  as  a  means  of 
defending  national  interests. 
It  seems,  however,  that  the 
crises  in  Iran  and  Afghanistan 
have  shortened  our  memories. 

A  number  of  leading  poli- 
ticians, Ronald  Reagan  for 
example,  are  advocating  a 
very  militarisric,  sabre- 
rattling  policy  towards  Mos- 
cow. What's  worse,  even 
some  Seventh-day  Adventists 
are  supporting  this  insanity.  I 
think  they  need  to  realize  thaf 
fighting  a  war  and  playing 
hockey  are  two  very  different 

In  May  1975,  1  was  on  the 
USS  Coral  Sea  (CV-43)  an 
aircraft  carrier  which  was  the 
flagship  of  a  small  taskforce 
steaming  for  Koh-Tang  Island 
offthe  coast  of  Vietnam.  Our 
mission  was  to  rescue  the 
merchant  marine  sailors  and 
their  ship— SS  Mayaguez 
Although  most  of  the  marines 


in  the  assult  force  were  aboard 
other  vessels,  some  were 
placed  on  our  ship.  There 
seemed  to  be  an  almost 
carnival-like  atmosphere 
aboard  the  ship.  It  was 
something  like  what  I'd  ex- 
perience before  an  important 
high  school  football  game. 
We  were  all  anxious  to  stick  it 
to  the  Khmer  Rouge  {Cam- 
bodian Communists).  How- 
ever, when  the  marines  came 
back  from  the  operation,  it 
was  a  different  story. 

Thirteen  had  been  killed, 
about  two  dozen  were  mis- 
sing, scores  were  wounded 
and  the  rest  seemed  so  totally 
shattered  that  1  wasn't  sure 
who  to  feel  sorrier  for.  They 
all  seemed  thoroughly  beaten. 
We  were  then  told  not  to  talk 
to  anyone  about  the  operation 
upon  arrival  in  the  Philip- 
pines. We  soon  found  out 
why.  Friends  and  relatives 
began  writing  us  letters  telling 
us  how  proud  they  were  of  us 
for  the  great  victory  we'd  won. 
We  were  shocked  because  this 
had  been  the  first  time  we'd 
heard  anyone  refer  to  the 
Mayaguez    Operation     as    a 


victory.  In  fact,  the  more  I've 
heard  regarding  the  details  of 
the  operation,  the  more  I'm 
convinced  it  was  a  defeat 
made  to  look  like  a  victory  for 
propaganda  purposes. 

Perhaps  just  rattling  off 
casualty  figures  isn't  enough 
to  bring  home  the  true  horror 
of  war.  Let's  use  one  of  the 
marines  in  the  operation  as  an 
example  and  let's  just  say  his 
name  is  Joe.  He  could  be 
anyone's  brother  or  son,  only 
the  USMC  has  turned  him  info 
a  killing  machine.  He  goes 
ashore  with  the  rest  of  ihe 
assault  force,  fulling  expect- 
ing to  return  in  the  afternoon. 
However,  he's  either  wounded 
or  incapacitated  by  the  gas  the 
Cambodians  are  using  and  is 
left  behind  in  the  mad  rush  to 
get  back  to  the  "choppers."  If 
he  is  lucky  maybe  the  Khmer 
Rouge    will  tjuickly    bayonet 

him,  and  it'll  be  over.  If  not... 
remember  how  the  Khmer 
Rouge  executed  thousands  of 
their  own  people,  many  in  a 
quite  sadistic  manner. 
There  are  some  who  would.

Cont.  from  p.  2 

suggest  that  since  war  is  so 
awful,  we  need  to  arm  our- 
selves to  the  teeth  to  scare 
Moscow  into  towing  the  line. 
Of  course,  history  shows  the 
futility  of  such  a  policy,  but  I 
think  any  Christian  who  en- 
tertains such  ideas  should 
prayerfully  read  what  Isaiah 
31  has  to  say  about  trusting  a 
man  and  his  weapons  instead 
of  God.  We  are  told  very 
clearly  and  concisely  that  this 
country  needs  to  live  in  peace 
and  safety  in  Isaiah  1:18-20 
and  in  2  Chronicles  7:14.  The 
message  is  clear,  either  this 
nation  repents  and  begins  to 
sow  the  seeds  of  righteous- 
ness and  peace  or  it  will  reap  a 
whole  generation  of  Joes. 


Equal  Time  In  Sports  Leagues  Coverage  Requested 


1  writing 


Dear  Editor, 

The  words  that  I  i 
are  not  directed  t( 
individual,  but  it  seems  to  me 
that  someone  forgot  or  just 
neglected  to  put  the  A  League 
statistics  in  the  Accent.  All  1 
see  is  AA  League  this  and  AA 
League  that.  I  don't  see 
anything  wrong  with  it,  but 
AA  League  was  not  the  only 
league  playing — there  were  A 
and  B  Leagues  also. 

I  feel  that  each  league 
should  get  the  same  amount  of 
publicity.  (Since  the  "ways  of 
the  Lord  are  equal,"  Ezekiel 
18:25,  should  not  the  things 
going  on  in  "His  schools"  be 
of  the  same  principle?) 

One  might  say,  "Well, 
room  in  the  sport's 
for     all     of     the 


statistics.' 


Thei 


solution:  Cut  down  on  the 
amount  of  space  allotted  for 
one  league  to  make  room  for 
the  others.  I'm  quite  sure  that 
with  the  page  being  the  size  it 
is,  it  can  be  equally  divided 
into  enough  different  parts. 

AA  League  is  supposed  to 
be  comprised  of  the  best 
players,  A  League  the  next 
best  and  so  on.  After  the 
season  got  underway,  it  be- 
came evident  that  this  was  not 
true.  Instead  of  being  judged 
by  their  skills,  players 
chosen  by  their  friends. 
People  with  greater  skills  than 
some  of  those  represented  in 
the  AA  League  were  rudely 
pushed  into  the  A  and  B 
Leagues  simply  because  they 
were  not  close  friends  to  the 


myself  who  feel  this  way. 
hope  that  next  year  and  in  the 
years  to  come  that  the  facts 
pointed  out  will  not  be  over- 
looked   or    shoved    aside    as

P.S.    Even  though  basketball 

season  is  over  with,  we  would 

still  like  to  set

Why  Are  You  a  Seventh-day 
Adventist? 


Curtis  Kerbs,  sophomore,  chemistry.  Collegedale.  Tertn.: 
First  of  all  because  the  SDA  church  is  Christ-centered.  Second, 
the  doctrines  of  this  church  are  completely  based  on  the  Bible 
and  point  in  many  ways  to  the  focus  of  the  great  controversy- 
Christ  and  how  and  why  to  establish  a  real  relation  to  Him. 

Howie  Dortch.  sophomore,  behavioral  science.  Deer  Lodge, 
Tenn. :  I  was  raised  in  the  Seventh-day  Adventist  chyrch,  which 
i  am  very  glad  of  because  now  from  what  I've  studied  and 
learned,  I  believe  this  is  the  true  religion  God  meant  for  Him 
people  to  follow. 

James  Glass,  sophomore,  business  management.  Orlando, 
Fla.:  Since  I  was  raised  in  the  Seventh-day  Adventist  church, 
most  of  my  relatives  and  friends  are  Adventist.  Having  grown 
up  with  a  Christian  education,  I  realize  that  the  Seventh-day 
Adventist  church  is  God's  true  church. 

Jay  Brand,  junior.  psychology/English,  Louisville,  Tenn.: 
Because  according  to  how  the  Spirit  has  led  in  my  own  personal 
study.  SDA  doctrines  most  accurately  enhance  and  complement 
the  gospel  of  Jesus  Christ  and  righteousness  by  faith. 


Ginni  Lingerfelt.  Jreshman,  physical  education,  Maryville, 
Tenn.:  I  respect  the  emphasis  of  our  health  message  when  put 
into  practice.  It's  an  excellent  way  to  witness  to  non- 
Adventists. 

Greg  King,  junior,  theology.  Marietta,  Ga.:  Because  the 
Seventh-day  Adventist  church  is  securely  founded  upon  God's

non-Biblical  religions  do  not  have. 

Neroli  Hills,  senior,  journalism.  Beltsville.  Md.:  Being  the 
daughter  of  a  Seventh-day  Adventist  minister  is  the  reason  I 
originally  became  a  Seventh-day  Adventist.  I  am  a  Seventh-day 
Adventist  now  because  after  studying  the  beliefs  and  practices 
of  several  other  denominations,  I  firmly  believe  that  the 
teachings  of  the  Seventh-day  Adventist  church  are  scriptually 
correct  and  their  views  on  the  Sabbath,  second  coming  and  state 
of  the  dead,  in  particular,  give  me  a  sense  of  security. 

College  Days  Declared 
Success    Despite  Rain 


Despite  the  rain  on  campus 
last  Sunday,  approximately 
550  high  school  and  academy 
seniors  converged  on  the  SMC 
campus. 

Dr.  Ron  Barrow,  director  of 
Recruitment  and  Retention, 
was  pleased  with  the  enthu- 
siasm of  the  seniors  despite 
the  rain.  He  stated  that  he 
expects  between  50  and  60  per 
cent  of  the  seniors  to  return  to 
SMC  to  continue  their  edu- 


caHon  next  fall. 

As  far  as  the  enrollment  for 
next  year,  the  Administration 
sees  a  drop  of  approximately  5 
per  cent  in  student  enrollment 
for  next  semester.  This  is  due 
to  the  smaller  graduating 
classes. 

Dr.  Barrow  wants  to  extend 
his  appreciation  to  the  stu- 
dents for  their  cooperation 
during  College  Days.

"There  is  No  Longer  Trail  in    the  World" 


n  Melissa  Smith 

There  are  some  people  who 
are  not  satisfied  with  daily 
routine  and  a  status  quo  life. 
They  seek  more — more  chal- 
lenge, more  pain  and  more 
joy.  This  is  the  way  it  is  for 
Doug  Kenyon  and  Mike 
Rieseberg,  two  students  at 
SMC,  They  demanded  more 
out  of  life  and  set  out  to  find  it. 
On  April  15,  1979,  Mike 
Rieseberg  and  a  friend  began 
the  2,600  mile  walk  up  the 
Pacific  Crest  Trail.  One 
month  later,  on  May  10,  Doug 
Kenyon  and  two  friends  also 
started  the  trail.  Unknown  to 
all  of  them,  Byron  Stanley, 
who  would  soon  be  a  friend, 
had  begun  the  same  route  one 
day  earlier. 

"We  drove  1 
fomia,  which 
Mexican  border,"  began 
Doug,  "But  we  had  to  walk  12 
miles  down  to  the  border  to 
where  the  trail  officially  starts. 
We  were  going  to  hitch  hike," 
he  explained  ruefully,  "but  no 
one  would  pick  us  up." 

Mike  had  covered  this  terri- 
tory a  month  earlier,  but  his 
friend  quit  after  10  days.    He 


hiked  20  days  by  himself,  only 
to  get  very  ill  from  drinking 
bad  wafer.  Mike  ended  up 
spending  two  weeks  in  Los 
Angeles  recovering. 

Soon  after  that,  Mike  and 
Doug  met  up  with  each  other. 
'  'That  is  one  of  the  best  things 
that  happened  to  me,"  re- 
called Mike,  "And  after  that, 
we  met  Byron  on  the  trail  a 
couple  of  times.    We  saw  him 


asked  him  t 
together. 


3  Campo,  Cali- 


but  always,  we  had  a  planned 
campsite  to  meet  at  the  end  of 
the  day." 

Loneliness  was  not  a  pro- 
blem for  them.  They  enjoyed 
the  solitude,  the  time  to  be 
alone  and  get  to  know  them- 
selves. "I  liked  hiking  by 
myself,  at  my  own  pace,"  said 
Doug,  "but,  it  was  good  to 
know  there  would  be  someone 
to  talk  to  at  camp." 

"We  started  out  with  65 
pound  packs,"  they  both 
laughed.  "There  was  so  much 
stuff  we  thought  was  neces- 


sary like  binoculars,  nature 
books  and  telephoto  lenses." 
It  soon  became  a  game  to  see 
who  could  send  the  most  stuff 
home.  They  even  sent  their 
tents  home.  "But  it  didn't 
matter,"  Doug  expained. 
"The  weather  was  perfect." 

Food  was  the  biggest  chore 
of  the  trail.  Parents  and 
relatives  sent  them  food  to 
predesignated  supply  points, 
"We  weren't  totally  iso- 
lated," said  Mike.  "We 
occasionally  went  through  a 
town,  which  usually  consisted 
only  of  a  post  office,  and  we 
picked  up  our  food  there."- 
But  it  was  eating  the  food  that 
was  the  problem.  They  ate 
oatmeal  and  more  oatmeal, 
dried  eggs,  granola  and  pan- 
cakes for  breakfast.  Lunch 
was  English  muffins,  dried 
fruit,  crackers  and  peanut 
butter,  and  for  supper.  .  .they 
both  rolled  their  eyes, 
"Vitamins!  We  got  so  sick  of 
everything  else."  Byron  had 
special  freeze  dried  dinners, 
but  we  couldn't  afford  them." 
They  forced  down  mashed 
potatoes,  minute  rice  and 
Kraft  dinners  to  fill  their 
stomachs.  The  dehydrated 
vegetables  they  pronounced 
unedible. 

When  they  would  reach  a 
town,  the  first  thing  they  did 
was  buy  a  quart  of  milk  and 
relish  it,  then  went  to  a  diner 
for  cheeseburgers  and  real 
eggs.  "That's  what  we 
missed  most," 

The  food  problem  was  really 
a  minor  one  though.  The 
sheer  joy  of  being  in  nature 
overrid  everything.  "The 
whole  summer  was  a  natural 
high.  I  felt  like  !  was  the 
luckiest  person  in  the  worid. 


Mike  felt

this  way  about  it 
happier  out  there  than  1  ever 
had  been  in  my  life.  I  was 
happy  to  get  up  in  the  morn- 
ing. I  didn't  need  an  alarm 
clock.  And.  I  was  in  the  best 
part  of  the  country." 

They  hiked  through  the 
Laguna,  San  Bemadino  and 
San  Gabrial  Mountains,  and 
the  Mojave  Desert.  "That 
was  the  breaking  in  period. 
We  had  to  walk  at  night  in  the 
desert  because  it  was  110 
degrees  during  the  day.    We

it  all  really  began  for  us  in  the 
Sierra  Navadas.  That  was 
wonderful." 

The  final  mountain  range 
was  the  Cascades  in  Northern 
California  and  by  averaging  18 
miles  a  day,  Doug,  Mike  and 
Byron  reached  the  Canada 
border  five  months  and  2600 
miles  later  on  October  7.  "We 
probably  ended  up  walking 
about  2800  miles  though,  with 
out    side    trips    into    town,"

Mike  explained. 

"It  was  the  challenge  that 
appealed  to  me,"  reminisced 
Doug.  "I  wanted  to  see  if  I 
could  do  it.  There  is  so  much 
that  could  have  gone  wrong!" 

For  Mike  is  was  like  this. 
"It  just  got  on  my  brain  to  live 
in  the  woods  all  summer.  I 
thought  it  would  be  nice  to 
walk  instead  of  driving," 

This  type  of  adventure  is  not 
for  everyone.  They  warned, 
"You  have  to  really  love  the

trip  is  mental.  You  have  to 
make  yourself  keep  going 
when  you  hurt  all  over." 

Butit  was  worth  it.  "Some- 
times it  was  so  beautiful  I 
wanted  to  scream,"  said 
Doug.  "We  met fme  people,"

Hamley  Takes  Coimnand  of  Floor  Hockey 


Hamley  has  taken  definite 
command  in  the  Men's  Floor 
Hockey  League.  Still  unde- 
feated, the  team's  record 
stands  at  5-0  with  38  goals 
made  and  only  II  allowed  so 
far  this  season.  Captain  Bob 
Hamley  put  in  20  of  the  team's 
goals  and  leads  the  league  in 
individual  scoring. 

A  9-7  victory  over  Velasco 
this  week  boosted  Smith  into 
the  second-place  position. 
The  team  has  a  record  of  30 
goals  made  to  27  goals  allowed 
ths  season.  Sweeney  matched 
Smith's  2-1-2  record  with  a  6-2 
win  over  Tomer  this  week. 
The  team  has  put  in  18  goals 
and  allowed  17  this  season. 

Blinn  dropped  to  third  place 
in  the  order  this  week  after  an 
8-4  loss  to  Hamley.  The 
team's  record  of  goals  made 
stands  at  22.  falling  two 
behind  the  goals  allowed. 

Myers  is  moving  up  in  the 
world;  the  team  shut  out  Ray- 
burn  for  a  decisive  7-0  victory 
and  replaced  Velasco  in  the 
fourth-place  position.  Ve- 
lasco's  narrow  defeat  by 
second-ranked  Smith  dropped 
him  in  the  order  this  week. 


Tomer  and  Raybum  remain 
unchanged  in  the  line-up. 
Both  teams  added  a  loss  this 
week  but  exhibited  some  fine 
playing  and  sportsmanship — 
which,  while  it  doesn't  earn 
the  glory,  may  be  more  of  an 
achievement  than  winning. 

Overall,  things  have  been 
flowing  quite  smoothly  in 
men's  hockey  intramurals. 
Players  show  up  and  the 
games  are  started  nearly-on- 
time.  One  complaint  has  been 
expressed  repeatedly  (in  vari- 
ous forms),  however,  regard- 
ing the  tight  reffing.  A  player 
is  penalized  at  the  drop  of  a 
stick.  One  hockey  game  found 
all  the  players  of  one  team 
sitting  in  the  penalty  box 
except  for  the  goalie  and  one 
defenseman.  After  nearly  ten 
minutes  of  power  plays,  the 
defender  tossed  his  stick  ac- 
ross the  floor  just  so  he  could 
crawl  to  the  penalty  box  for  a 

The  officials  are  naturally 
trying  to  keep  the  game  clean 
and  uphold  standards  of 
Christian  conduct.  The 
players  are  trying  to  play  the 


game  but  may  feel  inhibited, 
fearing  that  the  slightest  bit  of 
unintentional  body  contact  will 
be  interpreted  as  a  malicious 
intent  to  charge,  trip,  push  or 
spear  another  player. 

Perhaps  officials  should  be 
encouraged  to  call  only  every 
fifth  penalty  they  see  so  that 
the  game  could  continue  in 
more     uninterrupted    spurts. 


Or  perhaps  players  should  be 
encouraged  to  participate  in 
one  grand  bash  (a  la  Phila- 
Flyers  style)  with  no  holds 
barred — so  that  survivors  of 
the  melee  would  welcome  the 
refs  restrictions  in  the  future. 
Or  maybe  officials  and  players 
should  be  encouraged  to  de- 
velop a  little  more  control  and 
understanding.     Players  who 


realize  that  the  "big  bad  ref ' 
is  not  just  out  to  get  them,  but 
wants  the  game  to  be  a 
success,  too,  will  be  better 
able  to  hold  their  tempers. 
Refs  who  recognize  that  every 
infraction  is  not  a  blatant 
rebelliousness  and  who  wel- 
come genuine  questioning  of 
the  rules  will  be  more  fair  as

Bradbury,  Greek  and 
Shaffer  \Wn   Competition 


The  Talge  Hall  Health  Club 
sponsored  a  Weightlifting 
Competition  Sunday,  April  6. 
Two  lifts  were  recorded  for 
each  competitor — the  bench 
press  and  the  dead  lift.  Lifters 
were  allowed  three  tries  in 
each  category  with  the  stipu- 
lation that  succeeding  lifts 
must  be  of  equal  or  greater 
weight.  Arching  the  back  out 
of  the  three-point  base  or 
bouncing  the  bar  off  the  chest 
in  the  bench  press  or  failing  to 
straighten  the  shoulders  in  the 
dead  lift  scratched  the  com- 
petitor's record  for  that  lift. 

Wayne  Bradbury  pressed 
275  lbs.  at  the  bench  and 
added  425  lbs.  in  the  dead  lift 
for  a  total  lift  of  700  lbs.  and 
first  place  for  the  most  weight 
lifted.  Ron  Shaffer  was 
second,  putting  up  245  lbs. 
and  410  lbs.  for  a  total  of  655 
lbs.  Todd  Lang  lifted  560 
lbs.— 200  in  the  bench  press 


and  360  in  the  dead  lift— to 
win  third  place. 

Winners  in  the  second 
category  —  the  highest 
percentage  of  body  weight 
lifted— were  Ray  Greek,  in 
first  place,  Johnny  Woodruff 
in  second,  and  Todd  Lang  in 
third.  Greek,  weighing  in  at 
123  lbs.,  lifted  190  and  325 
lbs.  for  a  total  of  515  lbs.— 
4.186  times  his  body  weight. 
Woodruff,  at  146  lbs,  lifted 
225  lbs.  and  365  lbs.;  his  total 
lift  of  590  lbs.  was  4.04  times 
his  body  weight.  Lang's  560 
lb.  lift  was  4  times  greater 
than  his  140  lb.  body  weight. 

Ron  Shaffer  was  awarded 
the  trophy  for  the  best  overall 
lifting.  Shaffer's  total  number 
of  pounds  lifted  multiplied  by 
his  percentage  of  body  weight 
lifted,  gave  him  a  score  of 
2,494.24  for  this  special 
award.
