IEGISTRATION EXCEEDS EXPECTATIONS

Registration pleasantly sur-
lised the Southern College
Kculty. Including 159 students

^Bstered-only three shy of last

^R- of Records, is well pleased

^Bo praised the recruitment
Bpgram and is very excited:
^Southern College is on the go

enthusiasm."

^Bected turnout, Dr. Barrow,
^Erector of Admissions, corn-
fronted, "KLM's 'Gateway to

Braised his office personnel for
^neir hard work in keeping up
with the voluminous mail and
in returning quick responses.
He explained the recruitment
program, which encouraged
enrollment, as having two main
thrusts: "We had recruiters in
all five conferences of the
Southern Union, and our
telemarketing program con-
tacted students by phone."
Yet the large enrollment had
an unexpected effect on Talge
Hall and Thatcher Hall. To
save money, during the sum-
mer, block walls had been con-
structed to divide the third floor
into sections, thus closing parts
of the dorm. Because enroll-
ment supplied more Talge
residents than expected, two of
the walls needed to be taken
down on the second day of
registration. Dean Christman,
Dean of Men, originally ex-
pected around 350 residents-
right now there are just over
pressed his feelings this way:
"Of course, we were glad to
knock the walls down to make
room for more students. It
would be fantastic to have no
more room in the inn and you
can take that one to the bank . ' '
In Thatcher the annex had to be
reopened after original plans
were to have all the women in
However, despite the general
feeling of pleasant surprise
among faculty members,
registration left students in
various moods. Freshmen that
were asked about registration
had varying opinions. While
some described the registration
process as "confusing and ir-
ritating," most had positive
simple"; "advisors were very
helpful"; "easy to find way
around." Still others enjoyed
meeeting people at registration
and thought the process of
registration was fun.
Upper-classmen had com-
ments about registration as
well. Some students who
menting "a bummer." A third-
year student found registration
well organized and easier with
experience. Altogether,
registration was a success.

Hefferlin Heads for Denver
By Cynthia Watson
Dr. Ray Hefferlin, a graduate
of the California Institute of
Technology, has been a physics
professor of Southern College
since 1955.. He has left Col-
legedale for the University of
Denver on a one-year sab-
batical leave.
"My professional objective at
the University of Denver is to
begin to write a book on the
research I've done over the past
several years," Dr. Hefferlin
states. Due to the increased in-
terest in his field. Dr. Hefferlin
believes, "It is time to write a
book on the subject." His cur-
rent research project, a periodic
system for diatomic molecules,
involves the arrangement of
something similar to the
chemist's periodic chart of the
elements. Since his research has
gone so well in this area, Dr.
Hefferlin has begun work on a
system for three-atom mol-
ecules and is thinking about a
system for four-atom mol-
His students will miss him
enormously. Junior physics
major David Gentry describes
him as enthusiastic, patient,
and helpful, both in and out of
the classroom. He remembers
"Doc", as Dr. Hefferlin is
fondly called, stating his
grading motto: "I may not
always be totally fair, but I do
claim to be consistent."
Dr. Hefferlin received invita-
tions from Loma Linda and
Auburn University but chose
instead to take his sabbatical
leave at the University of
Denver. "The particular in-
terests of the staff and
geographic location of the
University of Denver make it a
good choice," he says. He
previously knew some of the
staff. Also, travel expenses will
be cut in half by this ideal
location.
His speaking engagements will
take him as far as Canada and
Hawaii. December 21 he'll be
speaking in Honolulu on
research done by computer and
physics major Ken Priddy and
chemistry major Erin Sutton.
In Toronto he'll be reporting
on research done with Henry
Kuhlman. His last speaking
engagement will be in May at
Los Angeles.
His family has taken the move
in stride. His wife's plans to
further her education with
classes in interior design have
been cancelled since the Univer-
sity doesn't offer them.
Melissa, his oldest daughter,
doesn't seem to mind giving up
the office of Student Associa-
tion President at Collegedale
Academy in order to be with
her family.
Physics professor Henry
Kuhlman, who has been an in-
dispensable associate to Dr.
Hefferlin in his research, says,
"The physics department will
miss him tremendously, and
we'll just have to limp until he
gets back. His presence will be
especially missed by the
school."
Through the Business Ex-
cecutive Challenge to Alumni
(BECA) program, the school
has granted Dr. Hefferlin
$5,000 for the expenses of
traveling to consult with other
specialists in his field of
research. Those individuals that ,<jK

O We're Talkin' Proud!
really enjoyed, and because of that displeasure, I refuse c u
it The words we're talkin', when used in slang manner, just ir-
r tate me°espeeially when used in a series of descriptions. For
xampTe, I was watching a televised football game one day and
helnouncer, in his efforts to describe a receiver-, £»£*£
to the viewers a similar line of descriptions as the f°"°™S;
"We're talkin' quick, we're talkin' lightning speed, we re talkin
mercury, we're talkin' ..." You get the picture? Not too long ago,
however, I heard those words used with the word proud follow-
ing them, and to my ears, they had a nice ring We re talkin
proud'" If you say the words loud enough, they sound pretty
good. I believe we should adopt that line to describe this year.
You might ask, "What have we got to be proud on Allow
me to answer in this manner although it is against my better judg-
ment. We're talkin' a higher-than-expected enrollment, we re
talkin' Christian friends, we're talkin' Christian teachers, we're
talkin' new friends, we're talkin' old friends, we're talkin' more
and better facilities, we're talkin' a dedicated S.A., we're talkin'
a new and exciting Sabbath School format, we're talkin' more
Campus Ministries activities, (we're talkin' a new Compugraphic
machine), and, last but certainly not least, we're talkin redecora-
tion of Talge Hall. In other words, we're talkin' proud!
Everyone does not have the privilege of attending a Christian
institution. Even less have the privilege of attending Southern Col-
lege.We should be proud of our school and what it stands for.
While it is true that secular colleges offer many incentives that
a Seventh-day Adventist institution can not offer, the opposite
of that statement is also true. Secular colleges cannot offer cer-
tain incentives that a college like ours can. Southern College pro-
vides an individual with the opportunity to fellowship with those
who believe the same way he does. It provides him with the chance
to get closer to his Lord. If you were to read the Southern Col-
i for this student's body. After a few
strides again. For that
talkin' proud" as this year
promises to be exciting.
D fulfill the school'!

An Interview With The President
You have been president of this
college for over a year now; what
were some of your goals and
aspirations when you first took
this office?
One of my major goals was to
continue the kind of leadership
at this college that it has a
reputation for so that students
and constituency would feel
that they were getting the best
possible return on their in-
vestments in Adventist higher
education. This college has
been well managed for years,
and it's obvious by the quality
of people, the quality of
buildings, the quality of pro-
grams, and as well as the finan-
cial statement.
Now as you enter your second
year, are there any specific goals
for 1984-85?
One of the major challenges
now, in my mind, is academic
master planning. We need to
know where we want to be five
or ten years from now. For that
very reason, I am excited about
Dr. Bill Allen being on the staff
now. That is one of the items
that he and I talked about
before he was ever hired, and
he was excited about working
on the planning. I feel it is
something we really need. I
think it is something that is go-
ing to make a difference,
maybe not this year, but as we
"aTiffnlneties.
So then will there be any
changes this year that students
can actually see?
I doubt it as far as the
academic master planning.
That sort of process takes a
while. I would think, however,
that people who are now in
academies would be able to
come here, knowing that the
majors and programs we of-
fered are really going to prepare
them for the working world
when they graduate from here.
However, the students will
notice that there are fewer
faculty members; there will be
fifteen fewer members on cam-
pus. But we were staffed for
2000 students, and we only had
1600. So we had to be shifting
dollars which were supposed to
be dedicated for repairs and
maintenance over into
operating to balance our
budget. And you can't do that
very long because it is sacrific-
ing the future for the present.
Dr. Wagner, there seems to be
an optimistic feeling going over
campus among both faculty and
students. What do you attribute
this feeling to?
I m not sure, Dennis. But I'm
glad to hear you say that
because I have felt very op-
timistic about the future of this
college. And people who I
associate with also have the
same feeling. I'm not really sure
what to attribute it to.
Perhaps one of the reasons is
that you have established a
reputation as one who makes
himself available for many of the
student functions and as one who
concerns himself with the divi-
sions on campus.
Actually, beginning about
November of last year and con-
tinuing on through the summer,
an inordinately large amount of
my time was taken up by
retrenchment, and I didn't get
around to as many functions as
I wanted to. Frankly, I am a lit-
tle bit ashamed~about how lit-
tle bit of visibility I had during
some months of last year, i
think I need to be aware of the
pulse of the campus, and the
only way I know to do that is
to be where the action is. Tkl
year I want to increase i
availability.
Gouig onto another subject, thj, 1
scho«l has been in the midst of I
a lot fcf controversy in the pas, I
few years although last year *, I
a great deal more calmer. D, I
you think all of the controvert I
is behind us? I
I hope it is. I don't see an.1
evidence of it being stirred n, I
again. But I have learned thjl
it is awfully hard to secotfl
guess people. I hope and priJ
that it is in the past. I

Dana Records First Album
By Mike Battistone
To Be Loved, the first album
recorded by Dana Reed was
released last month. Although
most new students of Southern
College are not familiar with
Dana, he is well known by the
rest of the student body by vir-
tue of his ability as both a
writer and performer of con-
temporary Christian music.
Although Dana graduated
from SC last May (he received
a degree in communications,
with emphasis in both jour-
nalism and radio-TV film), his
preperation for his career began
much earlier than his collegiate
when I was about five years
old," Dana recollects, "my
father would be teaching my
brother Anthony and me how
to sing. We would be tired and
would want to go to bed, but he
kept us up, and that year we
learned to harmonize."
When Dana was six years old,
he joined the Harlem Boy's
Choir and was a member for six
years. Following this experience
he joined the "Dynamics," a
traditional gospel group, and
was involved in a number of
quartets, frequently joined by
Anthony. More recently, he has
been a member of the groups
"Judah" and "Surrender."
Currently Dana is doing solo
work. His schedule took him to
the Rosewood Festival in
Nashville this past weekend ami
he has several concerts schedul-
ed in New York later this year,.
In addition to his singing abnV
ty, Dana Reed is an ac-
complished songwriter, and for
five years composed much ol'
what he sings. The song "Justf
a Prayer Away," one he wrote)
for a New York gospel |
has reached the number 7 slot
on the gospel chart.
"Wiitu cralcod about his profev
sional goals, Dana replies, "I
am working to become the best
musician I can possibly be. 1
want to provide Christians
everywhere, particularly young
people, with music that they
feel they can enjoy throughout
the week, rather than limiting
their religious music to the
Sabbath."
The album is Dana's first
album, but according to him,
certainly not his last, To Be
Loved is available at the Hair
Designer's Beauty Shop in the
College Plaza.
Reflections
WHITE, GRAY, and BLACK
By Gordon Bietz
Once upon a time there was a
man, named Pilgrim, who liv-
ed in the city of Eladegelloc,
and there, he was told by Mr.
Speaker that if he was to carry
the name Pilgrim he needed to
go to the Holy City. Mr.
Speaker pointed to a distant
mountain and told him that the
Holy City was on that moun-
tain. Pilgrim looked as careful-
ly as he could, and he could on-
ly see a faint glimmer from the
peak of the mountain. He
wasn't sure that he could make
it to that faint glimmer, it look-
ed so distant and vague. He
told Mr. Speaker that there was
no hope for him, for the
journey looked too difficult
Mr. Speaker was persistent
though and described to him
the glories of life in the distant
city, convincing him that he
should go. Still, Pilgrim was
sure that there was no way he
could make the journey. Mr.
Speaker then told him that it
wasn't hard because others had
gone before him, and they had
painted a white line for
travelers to the Holy City to
follow. Pilgrim decided that
with a line to follow he could
probably make it, and so he
started his journey to the Holy
City from Eladegelloc. At the
beginning of the journey he
found that everything went very
smoothly. He had a very clear,
very white line to follow that
was very wide and clearly
distinquishable from all that
surrounded it. "This trip will be
easy," he thought to himself as
his journey began, "it is all so
clear to me now."
He traveled quickly as he kept
his head down following the
white line around buildings,
through streets, and across
hills. His confidence level in-
creased as he moved along un-
til he came to a place where the
white line was not as clear as it
had been. It looked as though
it had been smudged. The far-
ther he got from Eladegelloc,
the less clear the line seemed to .
The dimmer the line became,
the more he focused on it, or
what was left of it, and he
found himself needing to crawl
along the road to keep track of
the white line. The edge of the
line was hardly distinguishable;
in fact, the line became rather
gray as he traveled along and its
direction was no longer ab-
solutely certain. Pilgrim, more
determined than ever to follow
the line, purchased a magnify-
ing glass, so he could be sure of
the location of the line.
The magnifying glass soon
proved to be inadequate, and so
he obtained a "Line Detection
Light Meter" which was conve-
niently for sale just to the side
of the road. The salesman said
that this instrument could pick
up a difference in reflectivity of
just one lumen over the
distance of 2 meters. With the
help of this instrument Pilgrim
was able to travel a bit more
rapidly along the road.
It wasn't long, however,
before even the "Line Detec-
tion Light Meter" wasn't
enough, and so he purshased a
microscope which was conve-
niently for sale just to the side
of the road. The salesman said
that this microscope would be
able to pick up pigment of paint
that was just a couple of
microns across so that he could
be sure and know that he was
following the line.
The trip to the Holy City was
becoming drudgery to Pilgrim.
Each day he was getting out his
line detecion equipment looking
for paint and seeking to distin-
quish the gray from the white.
In the process of focusing on
the line he lost sight of the Ho-
ly City, but he did make some
interesting discoveries.
One of Pilgrim's discoveries
made by using a Geiger counter
was that the true white paint
that must have been used by the
best traveler to precede him had
a trace of a radioactive com-
pound in it. This discovery, of
course, meant that he would be
able to invent a machine that
could detect the line and it's
direction even though there
were only a few molecules of
paint on the road. He obtained
a patent on this new line detec
tion equipment. He named the
instrument the "True Radioac-
tive Line Detection Meter" and
contracted with a local pilgrim
store to sell his device.
The advertising was im-
pressive: "Guaranteed pure line
detection for passing pilgrims."
He set up his own shop and
made a killing on travelers to
the Holy City. Sales from the
meter were fantastic, and he
made a great deal of money. He
found it was good for business
to give generously to prophets
who encouraged the travelers
on the road. He would even
give a percentage to prophets
who referred customers. He in-
vested his profits in the com-
munity at the foot of the moun-
tain and lived comfortably
beside the path leading to the
Holy City.
One day Mr. Speaker, the one
who sent him on his journey,
visted him. Pilgrim proudly
showed off his fancy equipment
and told him how it certainly
must have saved many a
traveler from straying from the
true line. "You see," he toTd
Mr. Speaker, "everything is so
gray that by the time the
travelers pass through here they
just don't know which way to
go unless they buy my
instrument.
"Have you ever thought why
things go gray here?" asked
Mr. Speaker.
"No," replied Pilgrim, "I just
know from personal experience
that without my equipment you
simply can't detect a line past
this city."
"But why is it that you can't
detect a line here, and it is so
clear down in the valley? ' * per-
sisted Mr. Speaker.
"I don't know" said Pilgrim.
"I'll tell you why," continued
Mr. Speaker. "Look up at the
mountain."
Pilgrim looked up at the
mountain peak and covered his
eyes, for they were blinded with
the light from the mountain.
"You see" continued Mr.
Speaker, "from here the
traveleres can see the Holy Ci-
ty so clearly that they are no
longer concerned about the
lines and whether they are gray
or white. When you are this
close to the Holy City, if you
focus on the goal, your feet will
stay in the path."
"Oh" said an embarrased
Pilgrim. "If that is true, sales
for the "True Radioactive Line
Detection Meter" will
plummet."
"That is true," answered Mr.
Speaker, "but then the travelers
will lift their eyes and look at
their goal, rather than examin-
ing the remnants of each line,
seeking to determine which is
most white. With their eyes on
their goal, their feet will be on
the right path."
Collegiate Commitment Weekend Begins
By La Ronda Curtis
Making a commitment, a
pledge to do something, is not
uncommon for college
students. Most of us make
some of kind of commitment
each day. For example, we may
make a commitment to meet a
friend at KR's Place for an
afternoon snack or promise to
help someone study for his
Chemistry test or agree to have
opening prayer for Sabbath
School.
We may be used to making
commitments, but do we
always carry them out? Have
you ever stood up in an appeal
at the end of a church service
as a sign of commitment to
Christianity? It is easy to forget
about the commitments we
make, and unfortunately,
sometimes we don't do
anything about them.
During September 6-9,
Southern College will have its
commitment weekend on cam-
Pus. Assistant Chaplain Dale
Tunnell sees this weekend as a
time for students to "commit
themselves to sharing what they
°eJieve in, and then putting it
'"*T action. "Getting involved
during this weekend will be a
big step for the student body to
keep a commitment to the col-
lege, and most important, to
Christianity.
To assist in getting this
weekend off to a good start, the
youth directors from the
Southern Union will be on cam-
pus. On Thursday night, they
will form a team for a Softball
game and play against the SC
staff. They will be visiting some
of the classes Friday morning
and will be in charge of con-
ference afterglow after vespers.
To top off the weekend, they
will be hosting the annual pan-
cake breakfast Sunday morning
at 9:00. Their spiritual en-
thusiasm will be a good boost
for our college at the start of a
new year.
Others who will be here this
weekend will be Elders Ralph
Peay and Ray Tetz. Those who
were here last year will recall
that Elder Tetz was one of our
Week-of-Spiritual-Emphasis
speakers. Their theme will be
"Focusing on the World."
Elder Peay, Southern Union
Youth Director, will be the
speaker for chapel on Thurs-
day. Elder Tetz will speak Fri-
day night and also for the Sab-
bath worship hour.
' Campus ministries will hold a
special Sabbath School pro-
gram in the Collegedale
Church. Several different
aspects of the college's
ministry, such as CABL, Target
Ministry, Student Missions,
and others will be discussed.
There will be planned activities
on Sabbath afternoon for
students to activate their com-
mitment. At 2:30 a group will
be going out to the community
to distribute literature. They
will be distributing Amazing
Facts Bible tracts. To end the
day, a singspiration is planned
for 7:30 on the steps of Lynn-
wood Hall. Tunnell hopes these
will be successfull attempts to
get students involved in "fun"
religious activities.
Everybody needs a
hug. It changes your
metabolism.

Dr. Allen Replaces Futcher
By Moni Gennick
Dr. William Merle AJlen is our
new vice-president of academic
affairs at Southern College,
replacing Dr. Cyril Futcher
who retired this summer.
Dr. Allen is a native of
California and has spent the
last 16 years teaching chemistry
at La Sierra of Loma Linda
University. However, he is
e than just a chemistry pro-
fessor from the west coast.
During his career he has serv-
ed on various university com-
mittees and organizations, as
well as involving himself in
areas apart from the universi-
ty. For example, he served on
advisory committee that
dealt with air pollution control
and was a curator of minerals
at the World Museum of
Natural History at Loma
Linda.
Dr. Allen holds membership
in the American Chemical
Society and has received several
honors and awards for his
research in the chemistry field.
In response to the question of
whether he misses California,
Dr. Allen answers, "Once you
have an attitude to serve, the
location is really secondary.
Job satisfaction is more impor-
tant, and I'm planning on a
long-term commitment to this
particular position."
Concerning his jump from
scientist to administrator, Dr.
Allen remarks that he considers
himself an educator first and
scientist second. "I've enjoyed
the administrating work that I
have done in the past and look
forward to doing it fulltime. I
felt I had already done all I
could do in teaching, and this
provides me with new areas of
challenge and growth."
Dr. Allen's goals for the col-
lege is to form a long-range
plan of strategy to keep the col-
lege alive and vital in the face
of a rapidly changing job
market and a national decline
in college-age students.
"Many people will change
their jobs several times during
their life," explained Dr. Allen.
"This puts additional pressures
on general education, deman-
ding a solid foundation that will
allow for easier adaptation to
change."
The faculty's concern is in
developing new programs to
meet these needs, and Dr. Allen
cautions students against
limiting their education into
narrow channels which will
constrict their job opportunities
and/or changes in the future.
Dr. Allen also encourages
students to take part in the
spiritual and social activities of-
fered here at Southern so as not
to miss out in their total college
experience. He, himself, was
very involved in sports during
his college days and enjoys par-
ticipating in them even now.
And, of course, he follows the
Los Angeles Dodgers.
"I feel that one of the great
strengths of this college is that
it is so solid in all three areas of
college life: spiritual, social,
and academic," said Dr. Allen.
"Although acacemics is my
main concern, 1 look forward
to being on campus with the
students and having them par-
ticipate in the other activities."
Without a doubt, Dr. Allen
will contribute a lot to our col-
lege, but he would like the
students to know that they also
make a difference. "Good
academic performance
challenges a teacher," he
stated, "and attentiveness and
appreciation encourages him.
These things have a very big im-
pact on the academic level
which is achieved."

Could a greater miracle
take place than for us
to look through each
other's eyes for an
instant?
President...
some of those issues that never
seem to die, such as the rising
cost of Christian education and
the name change of our
institution?
Let me separate the issues.
First of all, the rising cost of
education will always be an
issue. Mr. Reiner was attending
some meetings for the Adven-
tist colleges' business managers
and brought back a report and
Southern is still-next to
Oakwood, they are still the
lowest, but it is because they
receive subsidies from the
General Conference-the lowest
costing college. That is little
comfort when there is still a
$2000 gap between resources
and charges, but I still believe
that where there is a will there
is a way. We have a commit-
ment to doing whatever we can
to help students (work their
way through college). We
recently repurchased the
broomship, and it is now
generating $6000 a month in
student labor credit. Our
REACH program is another
evidence of that commitment.
It is all going to cost money.
But we believe that with some
creative work with students and
by opening up more oppor-
tunities for student labor, those
who really want an Adventist
Christian education can get it.
As for the name change, there
is still a board meeting charged
with the rsponsibility of study-
ing it. There has been some
study. Probably within the next
week, a survey will be going out
to the alumni, feeling their opi-
nions on the name. We have
noticed that some of the alum-
ni are somewhat unhappy but
more so about the process than
the name change.
Just one last thought, Dr.
Wagner. What message would
you want both faculty and
students to remember through
this coming school year?
Relationship with the Lord is
fundamental to everything else

Southern Cynic
Ramblings of a Fried Mind
gy Victor Czerkasij
I Have you ever had a cynical
I day? I'm having one right
I now. In fact, it started when. I
made myself some oatmeal
I tnis morning. "Stir oats into
I briskly boiling water." Brisk-
|ly? Is that a word for boiling
I water? I'd suppose we'd all be
■brisk if we were boiled. Who's
■ the guy on the Quaker Oats
|box? Why is he smiling so
much? Probably because he's
lonopoly on oats. Why
i is it Quaker? Are there Catho-
lic oats too? What's this with
Ehe honey jar? "Retains all
jriginal minerals and ele-
," Sounds full of metal
Is that like "fortified
iron?" That's on all
:ereal boxes. I bought a box of
I'Halfsies" yesterday. Does
;an it's half full? Maybe
It's for halfwits. Am I getting
insulted? There's that dumb
■Quaker guy again. (Does he
Bike my kitchen or something?)
Maybe Halfsies are for people
who don't want to go all the
way, just half-way. Can that
mean something else? Did you
ever fight for the free inside?
Did you ever win? Did you
ever buy a cereal just for the
prize? Did you know that if
you opened the bottom first
you could get the prize easier?
Did you know that if you forgot
the opened bottom, Cap'n
Crunch would be getting
crunched all over the floor?
What happened to Quisp?
Why do sugar-cereals have
prizes and not Product 19?
These are serious questions.
Did you ever stick Chiquita
banana stickers on your nose?
Here's a can of Shasta soda. It
says they want a pop. Should
we give it to "them? If they
wanted a soda, they'd ask for
it. It says it's strawberry soda.
That's why the letters are red.
You wouldn't find a red root-
beer can, would you? Why are
Sprite cans green? Sprite's
not green. It says real-lemon
lime flavor-exclamation
mark. Am I supposed to be
excited too? Here's some Oil
ofOIay. It says"Become beau-
tiful-use Oil of Olay." I never
used it. Am I ugly? No
comment. Oil of Olay looks
like Pepto-Bismol. Is it? do
you remember Dippity-do? I
used to smear it as a kid. My
mother smeared me. Here's a
bottle of Thousand Island
dressing. It says that it is "A
simply delightful salad dres-
sing." Delightful? Should I
talk to it? What do I do if it
answers? Why does Ma Bell
keep wanting me to reach out
and touch someone? You
could get your fingers broken.
Ever see a new car ad? Why is
there always a bikini-clad
woman lying on the hood?
Does she come with it? If not.
they should tell her to go home
and buy some clothes. Am I
missing something? Remem-
ber being in mixed company in
academy, at a faculty home
watching TV? Remember how
quiet it got when Cathy Rigby
came on? It was very embar-
rassing. It must have been
more embarrassing to find out
you couldn't reply on Rely
anymore. What's happening
to our country? Who is
Jorache? Is that French for
"HORSE" I always see a
little horse head on Jordache
jeans. Maybe its
saying you have to have a
horse-like rear. (I wear Levis).
What about Gloria Vander-
bilt? She's so ugly. Maybe she
thinks Pepto-Bismol is Oil of
Olay. Why is her name on her
jeans? Maybe it makes her
feel good to know millions are
sitting on her name. She's
strange. Strange and ugly.
Maybe that's why she has so
much more money than I do.
Here's the cover for Good
Housekeeping. On the cover it
says, "As she drew back
breathlessly, she longed to
hear his words." They write
at Red Food Store will buy it,
and read the cheap novel
inside. It usually works. My
wife fell for it, that's why I'm
reading it. What is it I don t
say that she longs to hear? Is
it, "I took out the garbage?"
Who draws back breathlessly?
I suppose they do that at the
business office a lot.
Hmmm, "...he took heF
creamy white shoulders in his
strong hands. She swooned at
the scent of masculinity. He
stared hard at her lush, red
lips..." Not bad. They must be
fortified with iron.

1 The Student association held
I their annual welcome party on

I tractions of the night was to
have been a greased pig com-

I would have tried their hands at
I catching and holding onto the
I greased animal. But apparent-

I What actually happened was
phat the farmer from whom the
s to have been rented had
fforgotten to get him out before
sunset. Not wanting to be
trampled upon in his efforts to
retrieve thetpig, he refused to
enter the sty.
However, the evening's other
festivities helped everyone
forget that "Arnold" never
made it. During the course of
the evening, two hits of the
fifties— "Itsy, Bitsy, Teeny,

Milliken's Keys to Learning
September 13, 1984
/. T. Shim
A California learning and
motivation specialist is sharing
keys to learning with students,
faculty and the general public
Lir campus this week.
Dr. Harold R. Milliken, pro-
I fessor of biology at La Sierra,
I California, has made a study of
| effective learning methods and
shared them at two
I meetings in Summerour Hall
I and at our general assembly last
| Tuesday.
When Dr. William Allen ac-
repted the position of Vice-
President for Academic Ad-
ministration, he was told, "One
of the best things you can do
for Southern College is to get
Hal Milliken on the SC cam-
' To which Dr. Allen
responded, "It's already been
irranged."
Dr, Milliken is not only a
former colleague of our Dr.
Allen, but is a former teacher
t Shenandoah Valley Academy
where he taught our college
president Dr. John Wagner,
whom he recalls as "a very
good student."
Dr. Milliken will be on our
campus the entire week of
September 9 to 14 meeting with
classes and individuals. Those
wishing to meet with him may
make arrangements through
Carole Haynes at the Teaching
Learning Center.
If one doesn't catch him while
he is here you can listen to his
tape at the TLC-or buy one
from him. His address is, "The
Key to Learning Unlimited,"
5420 Sierra Vista Ave, River-
side, CA 92505.
The tape captures the essence
of his philosophy and techni-
ques. Some quotes, "The lear-
ning of learning has been large-
ly left to chance.. .visualization
ability, not innate intelligence
affects grades... the ability to
visualize can be learned."
On his tape he quotes a
psychologist, "Anyone can
learn anything if it is broken
down into small enough
pieces." Some specific techni-
ques to accomplish this:
memorize in groups of three,
play largo Baroque music in the
background while studying, use
large flashcards, notes and
books, spend less time notetak-
ing in class and visualize.
He views the mind as "a
multisensory visual processor
and not primarily a word pro-
cessor...capable of learning
large volumes of material
rapidly, easily and permanent-
ly." He believes that if we take
techniques that the top students
use and teach them to 'average'
students, they too will be able
to learn well.
He cites one example of a
history student who decided to
give his method a try. She quit
notetaking and instead stared
out the window during the lec-
ture and visualized the events.
Though not recommended for
all, this technique worked very
well for her.
Positive attitude is important.
He recommends that you avoid
negative thinking and people
who do. "Buy some positive
thinking books and read a few
pages everyday." He concludes
his tape with, "Success to each

Back
Brent Van Arsdell
Mac Frampton returned for
his "first concert of the fall
I season" to a "a larger au-
dience,"than when he last came
I to Southern 2 years ago. Com-
| paring audiences Mac said, "It
I was a wonderful response
before, and it was wonderful
tonight." Senior education ma-
jor Kent Greve testified, "This
the best of all the Artist
Adventure Series that I have
been to."
"Awesome, it left me
breathless," said Benjamin
Santana. "He has what it takes
to play piano," he continued.
Frampton's selections ranged
from classical to pop. He can
Play anything. "If I know it I'll
Play it for you; and if I don't
know it. . .I'll play it for you
anyway." Mac said before tak-
ing twenty favorites for his con-
cluding medley. He did what he
promised. The requests includ-
ed a diversity of styles such
as:"The Warsaw Concerto",
"Endless Love", "Prelude in C
sharp minor", "MASH", and
"Rocky Top".
The more popular tunes of the
medley where greeted with
spontaneous applause. Some
unexpected variations such as
e recurrance of "Rocky Top"
in a minor key brought smiles
and laughter.
Frampton took the time to
relate his musical life history.
M'a
bor
"PK"(Preacher's Kid) in South
Carolina and gave his First
recital at the age of seven. After
that recital "a lady reached in-
to her purse and pulled out a
crisp $10 bill and handed it to
me. I haven't been the same
since. It was like an electric
light bulb went off in my head.
'You mean they pay you for
this? ' I went home and practic-
ed a little bit harder the next
day."
This practice has evidently
paid off. He has performed
over 1500 concerts in the last
decade throughout the US,
Canada, Europe, and the Mid-
dle East. He has 60 more con-
certs booked before Christmas.
The music he played was
greeted with varying responses.
John Wagner, President of
Southern College, called it,
"Interesting." James Clark,
senior computer science major,
"Pretty good," Another stu-
dent, Debra Odell, said it was,
"Informative."
Most people enjoyed the con-
cert immensely and were duly
impressed. When asked to com-
ment, Carmen Perez said,
"Liberace-eat your heart out."
Typesetting Made Easy
The Southern Accent has
recently acquired a new typeset-
ting machine to aid in the pro-
duction of its paper. The Com-
pugraphic MCS typesetting
system is a specialized computer
designed for paper production.
The machine was installed in
the latter part of the summer.
MCS was installed to instruct
Jook Ting Shim (SA Presi-
dent), Dennis Negron (Accent
Editor) and John Seaman
(Assistant Accent Editor) on
the machine functions.
The new Compugraphic
Typesetter arose out of the need
for a more reliable machine.
The older one began having
major breakdowns at more fre-
quent intervals and soon it
became apparent that the
machine was more trouble than
it was worth. Maureen Mayden
(1893-84 Accent Editor) push-
ed to get a new Compugraphic
and the Senate voted to obtain
the machine. It was not certain
at this point what machine
would be purchased. Several
options were available, one be-
ing the suggestion of acquiring
a daisy-wheel computer printer.
The poor-print quality and
non-versatility ruled out this
option. The decision was final-
ly made to purchase the MCS
system.
The funds for the $15,000
system came from Student
Association surplus over the
past decade and the jog-a-thon
fund raiser which contributed
to the project. The large sum of
money spent will hopefully be
justified by the speed in which
the paper will be produced and
the low cost of maintenance.
The only preventive
maintenance which needs to be
done on the machine is the
periodic cleaning of a small
filter on the bottom of the
typesetter. During the training
session on the use of the
machine.the trainer commented
that the production of the
Southern Accent should be cut
in half when all the capabilities
of the machine are being
utilized.
The versatility of the MCS can
be seen when compared to the
older Compugraphic machine.
The MCS is capable of creating
a much larger letter size then
the older version, and this
allows for headlines to be typed
rather than making the headline
letter-by-letter in a headline
machine. Where the old Com-
pugraphic could only print one
column at a time, the new MCS
can print five columns side by
side. The MCS system also
enhances advertisements with
its versatility.
At this point it appears that
the MCS Compugraphic system
will be well worth the money.
Accent Editor Negron com-
ments, "this is probably the
best major project that the SA
has taken on in quite a few
years." The efficiency of the
machine will allow the staff to
focus on quality and content in
order to produce an effective
student newspaper.

A Statement of Mission
Last week I made a reference to the school's statement of mis-
sion Many of us probably have never read that paragraph found
in the inner flap of the bulletin. This statement helps guide
Southern College in its policy making. Without it, this school
would lose its sense of direction. No answer could be given to
the question "Why?" And when that question cannot be
answered, few appreciate the rules and regulation, the lifestyle,
and the order of things on a Seventh-day Adventist campus. In
order that people may understand my decisions as editor this year,
I wish to state my statement of mission.
Because Southern College is a Christian institution, I believe that
all aspects of the school should reflect Christianity, including the
student newspaper. Some may say, then, that I am following the
footsteps of the Adventist Review or the Southern Columns . They
may feel that it is impossible for me to reach the proper heights
that a student newspaper should because I must either be another
theological publication or a public relations tool for the school.
Contrary to that opinion, neither of the two are true although
the Southern Accent is a public relations tool to an extent. It is
possible to be a Christian newspaper and report both good and
bad news. It is also possible to print a "Southern Cynic" column
and the "Classifieds," and still possible to be serious and funny
within the same issue. A Christian newspaper, however, loses its
label when only the bad is emphasized and rarely the good, when
raunchy and distateful articles are printed and not the opposite.
As Southern Accent editor, then, I reserve the right to use my
Christian judgment in deciding whether an article, a letter, or a
classified is the proper material to put in an issue.
There is a time to let
things happen and
a time to make
things happen.

Mr. Merlin Wittenberg has
joined the staff of Southern
College as admissions advisor
to Dr. Ron Barrow. He will be
working with recruitment, ad-
missions, counseling, and as
High School guidance liaison.
Although his work will often
tkae him off campus, he looks
forward to becoming ac-
quainted with the students at
Southern.
For the past 18 years Wit-
tenberg has taught elementary
school, the last seven of which
have been at Spalding Elemen-
tary School in Collegedale.
Wittenberg is an alumnus of
Southern College and also a
former staff member. He
received his B.S. in Elementary
Education and later earned a
masters in administration and
supervision from the Universi-
ty of Arkansas. In 1969-70 Wit-
tenberg served as the assistant
dean of men here at Southern
College.
Mr. Howard Kennedy, prin-
cipal at Spalding Elementary
and former boss of Mr. Wit-
tenberg, stated that Wittenberg
was extremely innovative in his
classroom teaching, and ran a
strong spiritual program.
Anyone can safely assume that
these qualities will carry over
into Wittenberg's new position.
"His absence is felt," said
Kennedy, "but his influence
"I feel Christian education
begins in the elementary school
system," said Wittenberg. "But

"If a mother smokes (mari-
juana) in the same room an in-
fant lies and the infant breathes
the cannaboids in the
smoke,.. .the baby would be in-
toxicated," says Dr. Ingrid L.
Lantner in an interview in the
September 1984 issue of
LISTEN magazine ,
Dr. Lantner, a practicing
pediatrician in Ohio, has lec-
tured widely on the dangers of
marijuana use. She has alos
testified before the U.S. Senate
and has appeared on numerous
TV and radio shows. In the
LISTEN interview Dr Lantner
streese dangers to the children
of marijuana users.
"I see babies that are
high, "say Dr Lantner. "I have
had several mothers say to me,
'I get the baby high, and the pot
keeps sleeping for hours. It
doesn't even require any
feedings.' "
Another problem that Dr.
Lantner reports is that of
parents who offer marijuana to
their young children. Some of
these children start actively us-
ing the drugat the age of eigh-
teen months or two years. This
problem is particularly hard to
deal with, since getting a child
high is not currently considered
child abuse, so social agencies
are reluctant to intervene.
Dr. Lantner goes on to say
that children who see their
parents using marijuana will
probably start using it
themselves at an early age.
"And if children start using
drugs early," she says, "there
is almost no chance that they
will be able to stop ot turn back
time and mature normally,
because they actually
know what normal

Reflections
Lori Heinsman
Tuesday, the day after
registration, was my predestin-
ed fall cleaning day. Put simp-
ly, that meant I finally got to
clean out my desk, including
the bottom drawer. I seem to be
collecting half -used notebooks
the bottom drawer of my
desk. Some don't even belong
3 me: these ratty ones with the
covers torn off of them must
belong to my brother. I know
they are old since several aren't
college ruled, and it has been
years since Rich or I would be
caught writing on such
primeval paper. I can't throw
them away in good conscious,
and it will be ages until I use
them as scrap paper, so I in-
dustriously decided to write let-
Lori Phone Home
ters on them.
In theory, this is a great idea
because I write tons of letters,
but sometimes I want to write
on something pretty or pastel,
so the ol' notebook is tossed
back into the drawer. Unfor-
tunately, I have developed the
habit of writing in the middle
the notebook where the pages
are free from wrinkles and
word imprints; then absent-
mindedly closing the notebook,
the half-written letter suf-
focates between the pages and
dies of old age.
This year I could put the
ultimate off no longer. I ,
decided to throw away these old
faithfuls. Quickly acting upon
my decision before I could
change my mind, 1 flipped
through the pages for
valuables. I spotted my own
handwriting and thumbed back
until I found it.
It was an old letter to my best
friend, Heather. I read the first
few lines and remembered that
this was the letter when I was
trying to convince her to come
down to Orlando "to see me
before you 'journey' to the
other end of the country." I
begged her to give me just two
days of her time before she
moved to Colorado with her
family. "This is our last chance
to explore Florida together
before I move to Collegedale
next month," I wrote,
desperately attempting to see
her once more, since I feared I
would never see her again.
I think I was still in shock at
the time I wrote the letter.
Heather and I were always far
apart, but I was the only one
who moved around. She was
supposed to stay at home base
so I would have somewhere to
return to. I couldn't believe she
would be gone.
My letter ended there, with no
conclusion. I seemed to close
my unsolved problem between
the pages of the book to be
forgotten.
So there I sat, in the middle of
my floor, among crumpled
paper and aged spiral
notebooks, thinking-thinking
not about Heather now, but
about God and how ironic it is
that all of a sudden I realize
how much He parallels
Heather. Far away, yet He is
always there if I need Him. I
move around, but He stays, let-
ting me know that I have a
home to come to if I choose. I
feel guilty that I have waited so
long to let him know my choice.
Have I waited too long? Is that
why He had me find this letter-
to open my eyes to my procras-
tination?
I think back and remember
why I never finished the letter-
I phoned Heather instead.
Maybe God is trying to tell me
something; He's afraid of being
closed in The Book and suf-
focated between the pages. He
wants me to phone Him.
Commitment Achieved
La Ronda Curtis
Last weekend was SC's 15th
annual Collegiate Committ-
ment Weekend. Many com-
mittments were made verbally,
actively, and some silently.
The weekend got off to a good
beginning with Ralph Peay's
chapel talk about living up to
our label. Ralph Peay is the
Youth Director for the
Southern Union. He has at-
tended SC's commitment
weekends for several years.
However, he says that this year,
"the spirit on campus is very
positive." He talked about a
special "vibration" in the
students that will make this a
good school year.
Also, it was nice to have the
Youth Directors here for the
weekend. Bill Wood, Jim
Pleasants, Lewis Hendershot,
Meryle Rouse, and C.E.
Bracebridge were the directors
here representing their respec-
tive conferences. Thursday
night the faculty challenged
these youth directors to a game
of Softball. In years past, the
faculty has usualy won by a
wide margin. This time it was
a very close game. The faculty
did not take the lead until the
sixth inning, hanging on for the
lead, so the record is still good.
Friday night was a big
highlight of the weekend. Elder
Tetz, this year's primary
speaker, talked about making
commitments and keeping
them. He was also the speaker
the the Sabbath worship hour.
There he spoke about Chris-
tians being a "burning bush"
for God.
Also on Sabbath, Dale Tun-
nell presented a Sabbath School
program that made students
and church members aware of
the religious activities for the
C.A.R.E. (Collegiate Adventist
Reaching Everyone) ministry
on campus. For the afternoon,
Tunnell and Jim Herman in-
vited the students to take
religious surveys and hand out
literature to people in Summit
and Eastridge. Eighty-two
students accepted the invitation
and rode to Chattanooga on
buses. Tunnell said, "it was a
successful outing. The people
who went out didn't want to
quit when the time came."
Daniel Drapiza, a student who
went along, said that he was a
little nervous about going, but
it was fun once he got started,
and he met a lot of nice people
who were interested in what he
was sharing.
To close the Sabbath, a
singspiration on the steps of
Lynn Wood Hall was attended
by a large group, filling prac-
tically all the stairs. Tunnell
plans to make this a regular oc-
casion since so many students
enjoyed it. It was a pleasant
way to end the Sabbath.
Sunday morning many
students found their way to the
student park for a free pancake
breakfast. Both faculty
members and youth directors
were working hard over the
grills to keep the line of
students moving. This get
together ended a successful
Commitment Weekend.
We the People . . .
^Why Is Reagan So Popular?
Russell Duerksen
Detroit, 1980...the convention
hall falls silent as the
Republican nominee quotes
Franklin D. Roosevelt. Dallas,
1984. ..that same nominee
smiles broadly as he is inter-
rupted numerous times with
shouts of "four more years"
during the course of his accep-
tance speech. Two seemingly
diverse but similar events.yet
they typify the political career
of Ronald Wilson Reagan.
Few modern American politi-
cians have as forcefully express-
ed and acted upon their basic
political beliefs , as has Ronald
Reagan. In his career as a
politician, he has discontinued
deeply-held philisophies,
challenged basic ideology, and
by providing a rightward course
for government, created the
greatest upheaval in American
politics since Franklin
Roosevelt.
His politics, strongly conser-
vative, are to the right of the
average American and a recent
poll showed that less than 40%
of the populace were in total
agreement with the majority of
them. Yet he held a 12-17%
lead on his Democratic oppo-
nent, Walter Mondale, at the
start of the Fall campaign. Why
is this so, and what are the
reasons behind this political
phenomenon?
First of all, Reagan has shown
a mastery of the 'bully pulpit"
of the Presidency; not since the
era of the Roosevelts, has one
done this. He is able to design
his presentation to fit his image.
This ability, along with his
natural charisma, allows him to
function as the "Great Com-
municator" and to deliver his
message so pleasantly and ef-
fectively that many who would
not normally do, so support his
politics without totally realizing
hat they are supporting.
Secondly, his unique abilities
have allowed for the formation
of what has been called "the
Teflon Presidency." Through a
combination of charisma, good
humor, political savvy, and
good luck, he has been able to
prevent his political opponents
from assigning his presidency
responsibility for politically-
damaging events, such as the
Lebannese car-bomb at-
tack.Similar events would have
seriously challenged the ad-
ministartions of Ford, Nixon,
or Carter.
The third aspect of his
strength is in his style of leader-
ship. While Carter had a detail-
oriented, college-professor style
of presidency, emphasizing
problems and asking solutions,
Reagan has a more down-line
approach, telling the people
what's right about America and
then getting into the problems.
Granted, the emphasis on God,
motherhood, and apple pie is
not especially relevant to the
major issues, but the average
citizen wants, wishes, and needs
to hear something positive
about himself and his country,
and that need is an essential
part of the American presiden-
cy which the majority of the the
more recent presidents have
ignored.
The final reason for his unique
popularity is the fact that he is
a known celebrity. Having been
in the public eye for approx-
imately 20 years, he has ex-
pressed his political philosophy,
and by and large, has done
what he said he would, even
under strong pressure to do
otherwise. This adherance to
his beliefs has created respect,
and perhaps some support,
because the average person
honors consistency and stabili-
ty, even if he doesn't agree with
what is being done.
Although much has been said
about the "Reagan Revolu-
tion" and America's shift to the
right, the shift is much less
substantial than it appears. The
large lead which the President
enjoys is more a commitment to
a man than to a collection of
political ideas, to a "New
Beginning" in American
politics.
In closing, let us consider a lit-
tle history. Fifty years ago,

unstoppable philisophy and
political movement to change
the way America functioned.
Then, only a few years after
Roosevelt was gone, his party
lost the congress, the White
House, and its momentum.
Ronald Reagan does well to
assume the mantle of
Roosevelt, for he is truly his
equal, but he, his party, and all
America would do well to
remember the records of
history and the results of
building a majority around a
man instead of an idea.
Politicians: Past, Present, and Future
Gart Curtis
For the most part, students
here at Southern College tend
to think of politics as too far
removed to make any dif-
ference. Whether it's the left or
the right in the White House,
life around the dorm, up at the
library, or even down at the CK
doesn't change much. We let
our enthusiasm for current
events slide and take only a
mild interest in the micro scene
of school politics.
But three SC student politi-
cians, Glenn McElroy, Russell
Duerksen, and J.T. Shim, par-
ticipated out there in the "real
world" of politics last summer.
Glenn McElroy, last year's
S.A. President, worked under
Sen. Denton from Alabama as
a paid senate intern.
After submitting a resume and
"being interviewed, Glenn was
: of twenty people chosen
from one-hundred-eighty ap-
plicants for one month
internships.
Glenn, one of the five interns
chosen for the month of
August, worked in the legisla-
n section of the Senator's of-
KCtronics
Service and Repair for
• Stereos (car & home) •Videos
• Two-way Equipment •Speakers
• Cassette tapes •Hair Dryers
30-day guarantee on all work!
Call 238-3114 or 238-3515 for an estimate
lice. His duties included doing
research on pending legislation,
replying to letters from consti-
tuents, and helping to prepare
the Senator's briefing book on
After graduating from SC
Glenn will go on to law school
and from there possibly into
politics. Law, however, is his
primary interest right now.
Russell Duerksen was a floor
aid for Sen. Goldwater and
Sen. Deconcini, both of
Arizona, in Washington D.C.
last summer.
He got involved through the
U.S. Senate Youth Program
The U.S.S.Y.P. holds a yearly
contest in which two delegates
from each state are chosen;
Russell was one of the privileg-
ed few.
As a floor aid, Russell's ma-
jor responsibility was to keep
track of the Senator's papers
(many of which were classified
documents) and have them
ready and in order upon com-
mand. Russell has also worked
the two previous summers in
Arizona for Sen. Goldwater,
organizing youth drives design-
ed to increase young people's
interest in voting on the
Republican ticket.
Russell wants to go to
Georgetown School of Law and
from there into national politics
(but never as a bureaucrat).
J.T. Shim (SC S.A. Pres.)
worked as an unpaid intern in
Congressman Albert Gore,
Jr.'s office for two weeks in
July.
He got the job by doing a lot
of pavement pounding around
the House office buildings,
dropping frequently by the
Tennessee delegate's office, and
finallly getting connected
through "a friend of a friend."
J.T. answered the telephone,
responded to constituent mail,
compiled statistics of the Con-
gressman's attendance and
voting record at various
meetings, and searched
newspapers to clip articles per-
taining to the Congressman's
business. He also contacted
hospitals to look for liver (live
human liver); the Congressman
is heading a campaign for a
more efficient way of getting
liver from donors to those who
are in need.
While J.T. does not have any
specific directions in politics
yet, he wants to keep that op-
tion open. To do that he will try
to get a White House
Fellowship which is an unpaid
year-long job in the White
House working for a Cabinet
secretary, the Vice President, or
senior member of the Presi-
dent's staff.
Though each of the three had
different experiences, they all
agreed that they had an infor-
mative overview of the
American political process.
This, combined with the lessons
in time management and in
dealing with large numbers of
people who have varying opi-
nions, not only helped them
with their duties in the S.A.,
but it reinforced their desires to
become more involved in mak-
ing the decisions that shape our
country's future.
Only 3 Down
At this time last year
1625 students had en-
rolled at Southern
College. 1984's fall
Semester compares
well with 1622 stu-
dents enrolled, in spite
of the fact that the ad-
ministration had ex-
pected a drop of 150.
Your Destiny is Known
tori Heinsman
Destiny is an appropriate
name for a Christian drama
group. The title itself conjures
up thoughts of one's own
ultimate fate and fits the pur-
pose of the seventeen-person
group that performs in area
churches and academies.
Destiny ministers through
short skits based on Christian
themes. The group is also incor-
porating some pantomime into
their routine, reasoning that by
sticking with skits, they will
have fewer props and added
/ariety. Kevin Rice, Destiny's
itudent director, is excited
ibout the group's potential.
The members this year include
the following:
Terri Adams
Josette Alexis
Shannon Born
Cameron Cole
David Denton
Shelly Duncan
Monte Giles
Carole Huenergardt
Bob Jones
Lori Johnston
Joni King
Tim Minear
Kevin Rice
George Turner
Cindy Watson.
Mark Weddle
Connie Williams
Kevin plans to keep the group
versatile by having at least two
people ready for each part.
Destiny's beginning perfor-
mances will be September 15
and 22 at the Collegedale
Church for Sabbath School.
After this follows occasional
Sabbath School skits and a Fri-
day night production.
Although we don't see them
often, Destiny is hard at work
preparing more skits and per-
forming on the road. In Kevin's
opinion, academies are the
most fun to visit because the
group forms a relationship with
the academy students and can
communicate with them.
David Smith, Destiny's facul-
ty sponsor, has additional plans
for the group and is arranging
activities that include an inter-
collegiate rally in North
Carolina.

The program is designed to
serve as training experience for
the intern, while providing the
organization with the intern's
professional input. The cost of
the intern's salary is split bet-
ween the General Conference,
the institution and the institu-
tions Union Conference.
Participating in this year's
program are: Becki Anderson,
a 1984 Union College graduate,
working for radio station
KUCV, Union College; Gina
Devine, a 1984 Pacific Union
College graduate, working as a
public relations intern at Pacific
Union College; Patti Gentry, a
1983 Southern College
graduate, working for Univer-
sity Relations, Loma Linda
University.
Also, Maureen Mayden a 1984
Southern College graduate,
working as a public relations
assistant at Fletcher Hospital;
Katrina Paulman," a 1984 Walla
Walla College graduate, work-
ing as a public relations intern
at Walla Walla College; and
Paul Richardson, a 1984 Walla
Walla College graduate, work-
ing as a communication intern
with the British Columbia
Conference.
To qualify for an internship,
applicants must be college
graduates with a major or
minor in one of the com-
munication fields, and must be
recommended for the intern-
ship by both a communication
professor and faculty member
from their institution.
Internship positions are ap-
proved by the North American
Division Committee on Ad-
ministration as recommended
by the General Conference
Department of Communica-
tion. A maximum of six
students join the program each
year.
Subliminally Speaking
Campus Digest News Service
The first conscious knowledge
many college students have of
subliminal perception probably
revolves around a discussion
held in an advertising or
marketing class. (Subliminal
perception is that which relics
on messages buried within a
media, perceived by the
subconscious-even though they
can't be seen or heard con-
sciously.) But disagreement
abounds on whether subliminal
messages really exist. ..or
whether they are figments of
the imagination.
Studies are inconclusive on the
existence or effectiveness of
subliminal messages, but
enough evidence existed by
1974 for the Federal Com-
munications Commission to
warn its licensees against using
subliminal advertising over
public airwaves.
Advertisers, of <
. deny
use of sneaky messages in their
ads, despite media critics'
charges that a great many ads-
-both broadcast and print-are
bombarding us with subliminal
connections between products
and sexual messages or buying
suggestions. Cigarette and li-
quor ads have been accused of
flashing death symbols at view-
ers/readers for those who seem
to enjoy flirting with danger.
Now, however, a small
Michigan company, Stimutech,
has introduced a positive way
to use subliminal perception.
By using a TV set, home com-
puter, $90 interface (connecting
device) and $40 program,
Stimutech proposes using this
controversial conditioning to
lose weight, control stress, stop
smoking or drinking, boost
career success, or improve sex
life, athletic skills or study
GARFIELD®
habits.
The computer program flashes
messages ("I am confident" to
"I can stop smoking") across
the screen at l/30th of a second
every 2'/2 minutes. Stimutech
doesn't plan any experiments
testing the effectiveness of the
program.
"What we know today is that
the brain sees and hears more
than the eyes and ears," says
Walace LaBenne, and East
Lansing (Mich.) psychology
professor. "We want to bypass
the censorship of the left brain
(which evaluates) and go to the
right brain (which controls
habits and attitudes)."
LaBenne suggests using the new
product in conjunction with
therapy for best effectiveness.
But despite almost 30 years of
suspicion of its existence, hard
evidence of subliminal percep-
tion is still inconclusive.

team to victory Sunday evening.
Jones entered the seventh needing a

Fowler's blast got Hinkle on the board
first with his towering shot leading off
the third inning, but Price came back

Southern Hosts
Triathalon
Cindy Watson
The triathalon coming up
Sunday, September 23, will be
a first for Southern College.
One-event competitions have
been held previously be never
swimming, biking, and running
all in one competition.
At 7 a.m., the race will start
off with a '/imile freestyle swim
at the Cohutta Springs lake.
Then one must ride from
Cohutta to Collegedale which is
• 28.5 miles, ending where the
run begins, in front of the gym.
The jaunt around the church,
up to a cemetery, through the
ball field and around again two
more times make up the 6.2
mile run.
Coach Kamieneski guesses a
good timing for the whole event
will be a little under three
hours. The tuning of the race is
difficult to predict as the
caliber of the athletes.
However, Kamieneski estimates
a good 15 to 20 minutes for the
swim, 2 hours for the bike ride,
and 40 minutes for the run.
This averages out to be a 40
minute per mile swim, 12 to 15
mph bike ride, and a 6.5 minute
per mile run.
Contestants will be competing
against all age groups and both
sexes. The competition will not
be open to the public; however,
a few surrounding academies
will be participating. ' 'This year
will serve as a sort of trial run,"
says Kamieneski. "Next year
we'll know more about it, invite
the participation of the public,
and group contestants accor-
ding to age and gender."
Medallions will be awarded to
each of the expected 24 to 25
contestants. Special awards will
be given to the academy with
the four best contestants and,
naturally, to the overall. "Next
year will be even bigger and bet-
ter," promises Kamieneski.

Southern Cynic
The Near Death of a Space Cadet
Rob Lastine
The mind of a child contains
i surprising number of adven-
tures, all that's needed is a lit-
tle imagination to give those
adventures life.
Between 1964 and 1968 my
family lived in Virginia Beach,
Virginia, only seventeen miles
from the ocean.
One of my childhood adven-
ures had to do with the excite-
ment of sailing off into the
unrisein pursuit of a forgot -
sn continent and the monetary
ain it would bring to the man
nth such honorable intentions.
While at the beach with my
amily, who were enjoying a
ew hours of relaxing sun and
furf, I realized my chance and
;et out in my small ship. To
most, it was simply an air mat-
ress, but to me it was a ship.
Barely 200 yards from shore a
oice came to me. Was it divine
inspiration meant, to assure me
that my quest could be realiz-
ed? No, it sounded too familiar
to be divine inspiration.
Through the haze of make
believe I recognized reality.
My father's voice tone in-
dicated that my mission had
been aborted; it also meant that
I was to return to port as soon
as possible
Upon reaching the safety of
my native soil, my father ex-
plained the facts of sailing and
the many dangers that await a
voyager foolish enough to im-
agine an air mattress to be a
sea-worthy ocean vessel. I
reluctantly promised to
postpone my trip.
It was about this time that my
brother and I came into posses-
sion of a Go-Cart, but, if a boy
chose to, it could become a high
speed inter-stellar space craft.
Our space vehicle had enough
room for only one warrior of
sound enough heart to endure
its many hidden surprises. One
such surprise was the tendency
of the throttle to stick in the
wide open position, and always
at the worst time.
One day the space cadets from
the neighborhood were invited
to pilot the craft, but not before
they were carefully briefed on
its controls and orbital limits.
My first two passes through
the galaxy weren't any different
from the many missions that
had been logged before, so I in-
vited my best friend and
neighbor, George, to ride with
me while I explained the con-
trols. The only place for him to
ride, however, was between the
rear mounted engines. Then it
happened!
Upon reaching the end of our
galaxy, or was it simply the end
of our street-no time to
seperate fact from fiction-the
throttle became stuck in the
wide open position.
With lightning speed and
razor-sharp judgement, the
craft was placed in an inter-
space 180 degree directional
change, but wait, what was that
sound coming from the back of
my space craft? A definite yell
was easily heard over the
scream of the twin rocket
boosters under full throttle. A
quick glance to the rear of the
craft answered the question
which lightning speed and
razor-sharp judgement had
overlooked.
My comrade, space cadet
George, who was riding bet-
ween the rocket boosters had
been jettisoned in the maneuver
and appeared to be suffering
from the frictional build up of
earth's asphalt atmosphere.
With the craft's newly ac-
quired agility, due to a lighter
payload, its speed increased.
Alone through the galaxy I
plunged.
Suddenly, up ahead, there
came into view an asteroid
field, constructed by my fellow
space cadets. They seemed to
feel that my turn was over; I
was, however, unable to com-
municate to them the gravity of
the situation I now found
myself in, and the distance bet-
ween us was closing rapidly.
The cadets, mounted on flim-
sy earth machines called
bicycles, had placed themselves
in the path of my unyielding
craft. This plan's genius was
my soon-to-be-angry big
brother, for Don's bicycle and
that of another cadet were
chosen as the weakest links in
the asteroid chain.
Soon their shouts, along with
their newly disassembled
bicycles, were forgotten as I en-
countered my new menace:
cross traffic.
The craft was skillfully
maneuvered, by a now
desperate cadet, into the largest
bush that came into view after
jumping the curb and re-
entering earth's orbit. The
engines stalled, and my grip on
the wheel relaxed.
Later the space craft was
returned to base for repairs.
Waiting for me was a
somewhat ill-tempered brother
and a limping best friend.
I was de-briefed on the day's
flight as base commanders
Jerry and Allene, my parents,
looked on in concern at their in-
trepid space traveler as he
related the tale of the mission
with its near-death experience
and the multi-screened, techni-
colored flash-back of the
cadet's short interplanetary life.
Sixteen years seperate that
story from present day reality.
In that time many adventures
have taken place with varying
degrees of success.
It appears that the only limits
to our adventures are those we
put up to defend ourselves from
the unknown recesses of our
minds. Imagine the possibilities
that exist for those intrepid
enough to experience their
dreams.

ly a child that got taller?

new faculty members in its in-
augural issue last week. The
nursing division has two in-
structors: Frances Robertson
and Lola Scoggins.
Frances Robertson is the new
pediatric's lead teacher for the
nursing department. Mrs
Robertson is not new on our
college, having taught here
from 1966-68. Before coming
■here this year, she was working
as a nurse at Nazareth Hospital
in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
She is married to Elder Lin-
wood Robertson, who is cur-
rently on a study leave from the
Pennsylvania Conference so
that he may work on his doc-
torate in counseling. The
Robertsons have 3 children, a
daughter and a son in the
Spaulding Elementary School
and a son in Collegedale
Academy. For hobbies, they
enjoy traveling and
photography.
Lola Scoggins is coming to us
from the Erlanger Hospital
School of Nursing. Currently
she is teaching Basic Nursing I.
A graduate of Columbia Union
College, Mrs Scoggins now
resides in Dunlap, Tennesee
with her husband and daughter
who is a freshman at Col-

Collegedale Gets New Pastor
The Collegedale Seventh-day
Adventist Church has recently
informed the Accent of an ex-
pansion in its pastoral staff.
Elder Ed Wright, associate
pastor of the Fresno Central
Church in California, has
received and accepted a call to
the newly-created post of
Pastor of Family Ministries at
the campus church.
Pastor Wright will be coming
to us after having completed
eight years of service as Pastor
of Youth and Family Ministries
to his large (1500 member) con-
gregation in central California.
Prior to this tenure, he attend-
ed Andrews Unversity, com-
pleting both his undergraduate
studies and Masters of Divini-
ty training there.
Pastor Wright will have many
responsibilities at the Col-
legedale Church although all of
them relate closely to the con-
cept of family ministry. He will
be leading out in the Family
Life Committee (established for
the benefit of young married
couples), operating a program
of visitation to non-attending
church members, developing
small Bible study groups, and
doing a little communications
and public relations work.
The necessity to hire a new
pastor actually arose two years
ago when Elder Bruce Aalborg,
one of Collegedale's assistant
pastors, accepted a call to
pastor the Knoxville church.
His departure left a void in the
pastoral staff, which only now
has been filled.
The delay in filling the posi-
tion was a result of the finan-
cial situation the Georgia-
Cumberland Conference found
itself in during the last two
years. With the national
economic situation looking in
dire straits, a decrease in tithe
income, and the Davenport
still
the
ference was forced to do ;
retrenchment. Although a
church as large as Collegedale
requires a staff of at least five
pastors to cover all the areas of
ministry at a college campus
church, it too had to cut back
on its staff. However, this con-
ference's financial picture has
brightened in the last year (see
box). Elder Wright's accep-
tance to come to Collegedale
now allows the other members
of the pastoral staff-Gordon
Bietz, Rolland Ruf, Jim Her-
man, and Gerald Morgan-to
concentrate on their respective
areas of ministry.
Although the exact date of
Elder Wright's arrival on cam-
pus is not yet known, we can
expect his ministry to begin
around the first part of
January. Joining the new
pastor in his ministry will be his
wife and two young boys. Elder
Gordon Bietz, Senior Pastor of
the Collegedale church, com-
ments, "We are eagerly an-
ticipating his coming. Elder
Wright's presence on the
pastoral staff will enhance our
program by allowing us to pro-
vider more comprehensive and
complete ministry to the church
and to the community.
GCC Looking Up
Financially, the Georgia-
Cumberland Conference has
done very well this year. Pro-
blems that have plagued this con-
ference and that have caused it
to cut back on staff are slowly
being resolved. As of July 31,
1984, the tithe income has in-
creased 1.2 percent from last
year.
Financial resolutions of the
Davenport crisis are continually
being made. Currently, the con-
ference has been awarded, in
cash, $500,000 by the arbitra-
tion steering committee formed

Scandiafestival '84 Troupe
to Perform at SC
Acrobats from Denmark,
gymnasts from Sweden, and an
entertainer from Norway will
be performing on Sunday even-
ing, September 23, 7:30 p.m. at
Southern College of Seventh-
day Adventists.
Scandiafestival *84, second
program in the Artist-
Adventure Series at Southern
College, will take place in the
Physical Education Center on
the Collegedale campus.
Members of Scandiafestival
'84 were selected through com-
petitions in Scandinavia. "They
are champions of their
disciplines," according to
Everett Schlisner, coordinator
for the 18 events in the Artist-
Adventure Series at Southern
College.
A team of 24 Danish Flying
Acrobats, ranging in age from
W to 22, are a part of the
group. The Flying Acrobats of
Aarhus formed in 1970, and
now several hundred boys and
g'rls train for inclusion in the
select group of show-gymnasts.
Their performance fuses
vaulting, tumbling and tram-
poline acrobatics, as well as
s'nging and folkdancing, back-
ed up with classical and con-
temporary music and lighting
effects. The gymnasts train six
t0 eight hours a week and do re-
quired exercises at home as
well.
Team members have made 29
f°reign trips, and h.ve achiev-
ed super^ar status in their own
mances in Denmark annually.
In 1982 they won the Interna-
tional Gymnastics Competition
in West Germany, upsetting the
Japanese team which had
dominated the event for a
number of years.
A second distinct group par-
ticipating in the Scandiafestival
'84 is the Stockholmsflickorna,
a gymnastic association of girls
from Stockholm, Sweden. The
girls begin training for the
display team as early as age 5,
working with a ball to develop
speed, adroitness, precision,
and tempo.
The third group is Rytmgub-
barna, or the Rhythm Guys, a
cross-section of teachers, but-
chers, carpenters, shipyard
workers, and farmers from
Gothenburg, Sweden. "Their

Brock Hall to Open Soon
Lori Selby
Although it seems as if most
of the Southern College campus
has just gotten into the swing of
school, many of our depart-
ments are planning changes.
Within several weeks the Com-
munications, English, History,
Foreign Languages, Art,
Business and Office Ad-
ministration departments will
be moving into Brock Hall, the
new humanities building. They
will be followed by the Audio
visual department and by the
radio station, FM 90.5-WSMC.
Brock Hall, on the north side of
off Apison Pike,
will join Wood Music Building
as part of our new fine arts
complex.
Dr. Robert Morrison, Chair-
man of the Division of Arts and
Letters, commented that he will
be glad to finally have all his
departments (Communications,
English, History, Foreign
Languages and Art) under one
roof. According to Dr. Mor-
rison, some of the special
features of the new building in-
clude office space with rooms
for readers between each office,
humanities classrooms adjoin-
audiovisual
mini-windows into the
classrooms for film and slide
projector, and two rooms
designed for a language lab. He
mentioned plans for a word
processor for journalism and
English students.
The Art facilities include a
large ceramics classroom with a
kiln and adequate electricity to
the pottery wheels. There will
also be classrooms for drawing
and design. Close to the Art
department is a gallery com-
plete with track lighting in the
ceiling. Dr. Morrison explain-

Reflections
The Links of the Chain
Rob Lastine
I had been walking through
this small fishing village for
some time now, but I still
wasn't quite sure what is was
that had drawn me to it.
Perhaps it was to escape the
I heat or just to break the
monotony of California's
Highway 5; no matter, I was
here now, and it was a welcom-
ed change.
I had left my Honda GL-1000
the edge of town under a
shade tree, and, now, after be-
ing here awhile, I turned and
started back toward where my
motorcycle was parked.
All morning I had been riding.
In fact this was the 1 1 'th day of
what had been my dream
vacation.
For six years I had attended
Southern College in Col-
legedale, Tennessee, and, now,
after having graduated with my
degrees, I could do the one
thing my college curriculum,
study, and my 43-hour-a-week
work schedule had not left me
much time to do--take my
dream vacation by motorcycle.
As I watched the fishermen
returning from their labor with
their catch and hanging their
lets up to dry, I realized how
ate it was getting and walked
i little faster.
The sun was slipping further
toward the west now, and as it
did, the smell of salt air, carried
by the light breeze off the
Pacific Ocean, helped to make
my decision to leave even more
difficult. This village was a
peaceful place, and I really
didn't want to leave, but had
[to.
While walking back to my
motorcycle I realized that this
i perfect vacation, a dream
come true.
In the 11 days that I had
traveled, the weather was near
perfect. The only rain that did
fall was mostly at night while I
was dry in my tent or during the
heat of the day when it was a
welcomed relief to my sun-
dried skin.
Thousands of miles had been
measured off by my motorcy-
cle's odometer. The beauties of
nature were many: from the
Mid-Western Plain states to the
majestic Rocky Mountains of
Colorado, from the vastness of
the Grand Canyon in Arizona
to the overwhelming depth and
beauty of Zion National Park
in south-western Utah. The
solitude of Highway 50 in
Nevada was also a welcomed
change to the overcrowded
cities and towns along the way.
I sat down on a park bench,
just for a moment, to reflect
back on the days events.
Just this morning I had left
Paradise, California, where I
stayed with relatives last night.
Los Angeles was to be my day's
destination, and by the map,
Highway 5 seemed to offer the
quickest route. However, by
mid-morning the temperature
had risen to 96 degrees, and the
traffic was unmercifully heavy.
I knew there had to be a better
way so I pulled off to the side
of the interstate where, in the
shade of an overpass, 1 looked
at my map.
Now, here on this park bench,
in the coolness of this peaceful
village, it came to me-the
reason I liked California
Highway 1. But of all the
villages and towns along the
coast, why had I stopped at this
one? As I stood up from where
I had been sitting, that question
turned over in my mind.
All the Fishing vessels were an-
chored in the harbor now and
the village was settling down for
the night, so I hurried on
through town.
As I was passing a small shop,
something on the counter
caught my eye. I turned and
walked through the open door
into the shop.
The object that had diverted
my attention was a chain, like
none I had ever seen. Each link
had a unique shape and size. As
I walked closer, I noticed a man
behind the counter.
"May I help you young
man?" he said. My eyes drop-
ped from the merchant to the
chain on the counter top.
"Sir, that sure is an interesting
chain you have there," I said.
"Did you make it yourself?"
"Yes," came his reply.
"Many years ago 1 made this
chain to remind my children of
my love for them. I put it out
here, on top of the counter,
where all can see it and ap-
preciate its value. It's priceless,
you know!"
A lump grew in my throat. I
realized that I could not afford
this chain, but perhaps I could
find out more about its
designer.
"How many children do you
have?" I asked.
"It's hard to say, young
man," came his reply, as his
gaze shifted from me to the
people passing by on the
sidewalk in front of his shop.
"They stop in from time to
time," he continued, "or they
call or send letters."
His eyes fell on mine as he
went on.
"My children mean the world
to me. There is nothing my
father and I wouldn't do for
them. That's why I made this
chain, so they would see the
love we have for them."
Before I could ask my next
question, the white-haired man
lifted the chain from atop the
counter, and holding it by its
largest link, He let it hang
"You see," he said, "I am a
fisherman, or perhaps I should
say, I'm a fisher of men."
My curiosity about what this
bronze-skinned man had just
said was building up inside me.
"A fisher a men," I exclaim-
ed, repeating the words he had
just spoken.
"Yes son, I cast out my net
and those who freely enter it are
then drawn up to where I would
have them be, with me, here,
just as you are now."
"What do you mean?" I ask-
ed in a trembling voice. "I
walked into you're store to ad-
mire that chain on the counter;
that's all!" The gentleman
smiled at me and asked, "What
was it about the chain that drew
you to it?"
"The intricate beauty and uni-
queness of each link," I
responded, "and the careful at-
tention to detail that the craft-
sman used in its forming, that's
why I came in, just to look at
"Wouldn't you like to have it?
Here it's yours."
I could hardly believe my ears;
this was what I had been sear-
ching for ever since reading the
story, Links of the Chain, the
story of a craftsman's love for
his children and his building of
a chain for each to have as a
reminder of his love for them.
Could this be the man of whom
so much had been written?
When I could speak again, I
V, ^
replied, "Sir, I would love to
possess such a chain, but I have
nothing to offer in return for
such a priceless work."
"Son, it's yours; here, I give
it to you because you have been
searching for its strength all
your life. Take care of it and
see that nothing is done to it
that might weaken it."
My mind raced with excite-
ment. "Oh, yes sir, it will hold
a place of honor in my house,
and it will be preserved."
I wanted to know more about
the chain which this man had
created. "Would you tell me
which link is most important;
they must stand for
something."
He lifted it from its place on
the counter, and as He did, the
light struck it in such a way that
I could see words that I had not
noticed before etched on each
link.
"The reason I asked," I con-
tinued, "was because I noticed
the different link sizes."
"They are all important," He
said, "the size and shape do not
effect the chains strength for
they are each as important as
the others along with the words
which are engraved on them.
The words are the most impor-
tant part of this chain. But to
answer your question, if one
link were to be weakened the
chain would break, and a chain
is only as strong as its weakest
link. That is why you must not
let one of these 1 0 links become
weakened by rust. Don't store
this chain on a shelf or in a
glass case. Use it, for its metal
becomes stronger with use."
As he lowered the chain to the
counter I couldn't help but ask
another question.
"Sir, I noticed your hands as

You Can Call Me JT
Moni Gennick
Who is JT7 Jook Ting Shim is
the president of this year's stu-
dent association. Last year he
came into the office with a slim
margin over his opposing can-
didate, Denise Read. There are
some who speculate that his
desire for the office came out of
a quest for power rather than
good intent.
In defense of himself JT stated
that he feels active elections are
important. "How could I en-
courage others to run on their
qualifications while refusing to
run on my own?" he asked.
"Also, if you want to have a
say in how things should be
done you need to be involved,"
JT does seem to be an ad-
vocate of the "get involved"
action he recommends. During
his years at Southern he has
served two one-year terms as a
senator and edited four editions
of SC's telephone directory,
The Numerique.
Last year he served as vice-
president of SA, an office
which he ran for in three
straight elections. "If
something is worth it," JT
commented, "don't be afraid
to alter strategies-just never
give up."
JT attributes his win in the
spring of '83 to a well-
structured campaign that "pull-
ed out all the stops." From of-
fice of vice-president, JT went
on to be president, in a very
similar campaign.
Aside from these major of-
fices, JT has also involved
himself in various campus
I orsanizations such as the
Amateur Radio Club and the
student cnapler of IABC.
As president of the student
association, JT acknowledges
his load of responsibility yet
feels that his qualifications can
the
Although he
somewhat skirted the subject of
any major plans the SA intend-
ed to implement this school
year, he stressed the importance
of "good communication with
follow through," dealing with
anything from refunds to sim-
ple complaints. He would also
like to increase school spirit.
The phone system is another
area JT would like to influence,
though a remark that "buying
the phone company seems to be
the only course to any real ac-
tion" seems to indicate that
working with the phone com-
pany tends to be a slow process.
A plan dealing with SA in-
volvement in the weekly
fellowship dinners at the Col-
legcdale church is also a plan
that the SA has taken on under
JT's leadership.
JT also has found his leader-
ship roles to be a learning ex-
perience encompassing such
things as learning how to con-
duct meetings to dealing and
communicating with people on
a variety of different levels. "I
like my position because I'm
able to meet a lot of people
also," JTsaid. "Onecanlearn
something from everybody that
is unique, and in doing so, it
makes life so much more plea-
sant for all."
Where does JT expect his stu-
dent political career to take him
in the future? "I'd like to keep
the political option open," JT
said, "though I'm really in-
terested in management and
administration."
JT will graduate this spring
with a double major of com-
puter science with a business
emphasis and communica-
tions/journalism.
His message to the student
body is "Ifyou say you will do
something-follow through "

Gano Achieves Highest
MCAT at Southern College
Ron Aguilera
The MCAT is very familiar to
those aspiring a medical profes-
sion. The Medical College Ad-
missions Test score is used as
acceptance criteria for those
entering medical school. With
this in mind medical students
prepare themselves to tackle the
MCAT. This is where David
Gano comes in. David tackled
the MCAT, and he tackled it
with style. David Gano now
holds the all-time high score on
the MCAT here at Southern
College with a score of 75. This
beat the record previously held
at 72 by Penny Duerksen. With
this score David has assured
himself acceptance to any
medical school. To give an idea
of how well David did, one
should know that Harvard
University's MCAT acceptance
score is 65.
David Gano was born in
Gainsville, Florida on
November 7, 1963. He attend-
ed Forest Lake Academy,
where he graduated from in
1981. Then he came here to
Southern College as a chemistry
major. Although he always
strove for academic success, he
was never obsessed by grades.
Aside from his academics,
David was always involved in
extra-curricular activities. He
has been in Die Miester Singers
and on the gymnastic team as
an acrobatic clown for three
years. He toured as part of a
quartet to various area churches
and also invloved himself in
intramurals.
Last summer Dave worked as
the Waterfront Director at
Camp Kulaqua. He is now cur-
rently in Ponape, Marshall
Islands, as a student missionary
and is planning to enroll at
Loma Linda University next
fall.
Those who know Dave say
they know him to be a well-
rounded, easy going,
spiritually-oriented guy with a
great sense of humor. It's great
to know that there are students,
such as Dave, that show ex-
cellence in Christian education
and commitment to Christian
goals and standards at
Southern College. The'
Southern A ccent commends
Dave for his efforts!

came before the problem." The
Lamb was slain from the foun-

to our problems, the Messiah,"
Elder Martin stated, "has
always been and always will be.
With this omnipotent cure, we
can 'get on with salvation' as
we wait on our returning
Saviour." Elder Martin ex-
plained, "He (Jesus) is the one
who came to us by His own
choice, yet was sent at the
fullness of time. Now is the
time we must come to Him! We
can have the best for free! By
accepting Christ, we change
from ordinary to extraor-

Monday's service by calling
"ordinary people to come to
the Lord and to start a
homeward journey."
A Tomboy's Advantage
Campus Digest News Service
Women who were tomboys
when they were younger are
more likely to become indepen-
dent, high-powered profes-
sionals, according to a recent
study of 125 middle-class
women by University of Kansas
psychologist Elizabeth Metzler-
Brennan.
Remaining assertive seems to
come easier to women who
started out free of sexual
stigmas associated with more
masculine games and toys, said
Metzler-Brennan.
According to the study,
women who wanted to be doc-
tors, scientists or politicians as
6-year-olds had better chances
of attaining those goals by their
mid-30s than did women with
more traditonally feminine at-
titudes, who chose homemak-
ing or traditionally feminine
professions later.

This was certainly unexpected.
At least someone could have
forewarned me. Even if so-
meone had, though; I probably
wouldn't have believed a word.
All of a sudden, my whole
world has changed. Can it be
that, after all these years, the
Chicago Cubs are finally going
to win the National League's
Eastern Division? What hap-
pened to tradition? What hap-
pened to the "May Fade?", the
"June Swoon?", the "July
Slide?", the "August Bust?",
the "September Fall?". We're
runnin* out of time here. If the
Cubs are going to die down,
would someone please tell me?

He's a Mets fan.
But surely, I must be dream-

who for 38 years sang "Wait till

had a copyright? They can't be.
The guys I'm used to seeing are
those who bobble the ball on
the potential last out of the
game only to let the tying run
score. The guys I'm used to are
the ones who hit pop-ups with

guys I'm used to are the ones
who can't catch pop-ups hit by

stones for other teams on their
way to the division crown, the
guys who score 22 runs and still
lose because the other guys
scored 23, the guys who star on
the "bloopers" segment of
"This Week in Baseball," the
guys whose manager cusses out
the fans for coming out to the
games just to boo the Cubs for
they had just blown yet another
one (You should have heard
that tape. I never knew such
words were in the English
language.). Those guys, I
remember them well.
But these guys today are
be
ailed
"America's Team's" partly
because of Super Station
WGN-TV Chicago and partly
because of all the migrated
players on the team-which is
why Dallas Green, formerly of
the Philadelphia organization,
is looking like a genious. This
year is a case in point.
In January, Green looked at
his stack of cards for the up-
coming season. He was unim-
pressed, to say the least. His top
starting pitcher of 1983 was
Chuck Rainey. Green went out
and acquired Scott Sanderson
from the Montreal Expos and
traded away Carmello Martinez
to San Diego. Immediately,
people began to remind Green
of the infamous Lou Brock
trade of years gone by. The guy
they got was out of baseball in
less than a year and we all knew
what happened to that poor
castoff, Mr. Brock.
Green looked at his outfield
and was confused. He had a
first-baseman playing center
field in Leon Durham and a
left-handed right fielder who
couldn't hit left-handed pit-
ching in Mel Hall. He also had
a left fielder who was inconsis-
tent in Jay Johnstone. So what
did he do? He traded reliever
Bill Campbell to Philly for
Gary Matthews and Bob Der-
nier, a real center-fielder. This
caused friction, obviously.
Durham was moved to first-
base to push popular veteran
Bill Buckner to the oak. Mat-
thews was inserted in left to
push Johnstone to Buckner's
side, and Hall was later traded
to Cleveland-otherwise known
as major league baseball's
purgatory-for Rick Sutcliffe,
George Frazier, and Ron
Hassey. Buckner had been trad-
ed to Boston for Dennis
Eckersley by this time. He ac-
quired Richie Hebner as a free-
agent and hired Jim Frey {1980
Kansas City Royals) to be his
manager. He swore that he
would make Cub fans happy by
producing a winning ballclub.
Cub fans had been condition-
ed to losing so long that the on-
ly winner they ever had were the
1969 team managed by Leo
Durocher that held the team in
first place for the majority of
the season until the Miracle
Mets washed all those dreams
away. Cub fans were skeptical
Statistics
about Green's daring dealing.
"What is he doing?", they'd
say. He's trying to bring a win-
ner. "They'll never be as good
as the '69 club." 1969 is gone.
"But what happened to Don
Kessinger, Glen Beckert, Ran-
dy Hundley, Jim Hickman, Bil-
ly Williams, and Ferggie
Jenkins?" Who?
"You know, Milt Pappas,
Ken Holtzman, Vic Harris,
Dave Kingman, Steve
Onteveros, and Larry Gura?"
You must be kidding.
"O.K., O.K., Eamie Banks."
Never heard of him. . .Wait a
minute, is he kin to Earnie
Pheirim?
But anyway all those old Cubs
were losers since 1945. That's
the last time the Cubs were in
the World Series. That fact is
older than Dean Qualley.
Rumor had it that if the Cubs
were ever to get close again,
America would have to win
another war. They thought they
had it in 1969, but just like
Vietnam they were beaten by
those communists, the New
York Mets. This year the com-
mies were at it again, trying to
spoil the Cub's fun. The Mets
themselves had a very good
year led by Keith Hernandez
and Dwight Gooden, the rookie
sensation on the mound. But in
head-to-head competition, the
Cubs won nine of the last 13
games. Other than head-to-
head competition, the Mets and
the Cubs played pretty even this
year. Usually that means fifth
and sixth place in the NX.
East. But this year they are 1-2
and it is definitely not a fluke.
So what, I picked them to finish
fifth and sixth in last March's
issue? For that matter, who
cares that I went 0-4 in my
preseason predictions?
Baltimore, the Chicago White
Sox, the Montreal Expos, and
the Braves all let me down. I
told you it wasn't gospel, but
my boss is making me feel like

Chain. . .
you were talking about the
chain, and I observed wounds.
What happened?" I asked.
Tears came to his eyes as He
said, "Many years ago my
father sent me on a search for
his lost children, but not
everyone welcomed my arrival.
This saddened me deeply, for
my father loves his children. He
would do anything for them.
That was why He sent me, to
show them the way home.
He paused a moment then
continued. "My search brought
great sadness to my heart, for
many would not accept my
father's invitation and sought
to end my life. In many hearts
the chains of my father's love
had grown brittle, and many
links were broken, their words
forgotten. Many chains were so
rusted, in fact, that some fail-
ed to recognize me as my
father's son and just considered
mean irritation to their lives."
Then he brightened up, and a
smile spread across his face.
"However," he continued,
"some did recognize me; their
chains had been studied and re-
mained strong. They accepted
my father's gift from having
known me. That is the real
value of this chain, when so-
meone sees my work and sees
my father's love for them in
it."
"The enemies of my father
sought i
blasphemy. They said 1 wasn't
who I claimed to be. Yet how
were they to know who I was;
their chains were all broken and
they had nothing to go on to
disprove my claim. So, in anger
they convicted me, and 1 was
nailed to a cross for all to see."
"But you know," he con-
tinued, "death has no hold on
As he stepped from behind the
counter I could see the wounds
in his feet, for he wore sandals.
"His love was that great?" 1
"Yes son, he loves you just as
I do, for we are fishers of men.
There is no other way home ex-
cept by the path which passes
beneath the cross. The links in
this chain are so that you might
know my father as I do and
love him as he loves you."
"Sir, I don't believe I asked
your name; what is it?" I
asked.
"My name is Jesus."
As He spoke 1 saw a twinkle
in his eyes.
"I love you Jesus," I respond-
ed. "What you have given to
me today I will treasure always.
I will use what you have given
me and share it with others."
He nodded as He said, "Yes,
that's the best way to keep it.
By sharing, you will become
strong. The chain will hold you
|k firmly to me, for I will not let
W you go. Study this chain."
As I was leaving his shop with

my shoulder and saw him place

Organ Is On Its Way
'elanie Boyd
years Southern Col-
and the Collegedale corn-
unity have been eagerly
raiting the arrival of the
rombaugh organ. In 1978 the
itracts were drawn up and
ned for purchasing the
,000 organ, and now it is
; way to Southern College,
coming to us from Eugene,
egon, disassembled on a
foot trailer truck,
the weeks to follow its ar-
jval, John Brombaugh, the
Jesigner and builder of the
organ, is sending his craftsmen
lo spend about five 'to eight
eeks putting it all together in
sanctuary of our campus
iuirch. Afterwards, each Sab-
can expect to hear the
ipes that have been voiced the
week by John Brom-
augh. It will take him six to
ine months to individually
voice all the pipes and
perfect, overall sound
lat will acoustically accom-
lodate the needs of our
anctuary.
Opus 26, the name of the
organ, is probably the largest
I'Tracker" pipe organ in North
ftmerica. It contains approx-
imately 5,000 pipes, each in-
dividually hand-crafted and
molded. Every detail of the
organ is made by hand-the
pipes, the keyboard, the thin
strips of wood-called
"Trackers"-which connect key
to pipe valve, and even the
beautiful wooden oak case that
holds all the pipes and
mechanics together.
Many have wondered why
we should spend so much
money on an organ when we
can purchase another for so
much less. The main reason is
that it is so much more sensible
to buy an organ that will last
for hundreds of years and still
keep up the quality sound.
Opus 26 won't die out in twen-
ty years like so many electronic
organs will because it has the
ability to last up to 300 years.
Plus the new organ will pose as
an investment as the years go
by; the value will increase.
Also, the organ is boosting
public relations for S.C., in that
organists from all over the U.S.
and Europe will be coming to
play and hear this fantastic in-
strument. Mrs. Judy Glass,
Associate Professor of Music at
S.C., says that everyone will be
able to hear a distinct difference
in the Brombaugh organ as
compared to the sound of the
electronic organ currently being
used. "It really makes music!"
she says.

however, people are wondering
when they will finally receive it.

ning to publish the Joker,
editor Rice wanted to produce
better quality pictures of the
students on the Orlando Cam-
pus than had been published in
previous years. He contracted
with Olan Mills to take the pic-
tures, and they promised him
they could get the pictures to
him in two to three weeks. This
would have meant that the pic-
tures would have been delivered
the last week in August or. the
first week in September. We are
now in the third week of
September, and on the 22nd the
pictures arrived.
The College Press is allowing
themselves two weeks to print
the Joker once they have re-
ceived all the materials. Reg
Rice claims that the Joker staff
has been ready for two weeks;
therefore, they are on schedule.
Thus, the holdup from Olan
Mills is the only reason that the
publication of the directory has
not been completed. From this
we can logically deduce that we
can look for the Joker to be
distributed sometime within the
next two to four weeks.
What's in store for the
students once they do receive
the Jokerl There have been
several changes made in this
year's directory. A third line
has been added to the informa-
tion listed under each picture
stating the social status of each
individual. Hopefully this will
save a person from the embar-
rassment of asking out a mar-
ried student to pizza and film in
the cafeteria. Another added
feature is an even more exten-
sive information list including
local churches, recreation in
Chattanooga and the surroun-
ding area, campsites, parks,
and other informative data. A
final revision is found in the
quality of the Joker. Editor
Rice claims that it has really
been upgraded.
Rice says that he apologizes
for the delay, but the reasons
for the delay were beyond his
control. He is positive,
however, that everyone will be
satisfied with the new Joker
when they finally get it. "Just
be patient," he says.

How High a Standard?
This past w«k I »as talking to a good friend of mine about
the different standards of our church. Specifically, we were
relating to each other how there are variant opinions about b.ke
riding on the Sabbath. The person said that she used to bike nde
on the Sabbath all the time and that she saw nothing wrong with
the practice. I related that I had a hard time seeuig myself doing
such a thing. Then we came up with a probable reason for our
differing views. My friend had been raised in a rural area. A bike
ride in this setting where one is generally by himself and close to
nature could easily bring an individual closer to God. In contrast
I grew up in a city where a bike ride generally is a battle with
can stop lights, and pedestrians. Although the possibility is there,
most people do not become close to God in this situation. The
conclusion we came to was that our backgrounds dictated how
high of a standard we had in this area.
However, this conclusion does not mean that it is right for a
person to okay all that he does on the rationale that his
background •determines his higher or lower standard of morality
or religion. In areas that our church has not taken a stand or that
the Bible does not have a principle by which we can judge an ac-
tion as acceptable then, I come to reason that there are levels of
standards that are acceptable. Certainly one cannot condemn my
friend nor me for having variant opinions on bike riding. I am
able to see that people who do ride their bikes on the Sabbath
can keep the Sabbath just as well as those who take hikes. But
I am not ready to follow this course of action. And with the mind-
set that I have now, I probably would be wrong in doing it.
Seventh-day Adventists are known for their high standards.
Some people admire us for them; others think about us as
ridiculous for having them. Yet even in our church there are and
always will be different levels of standards in areas that our church
has not taken a stand. My responsibility, then, in this situation,
is to respect my fellow man, If, in fact, he has taken the Bible's
dictation that we do whatever is pure and true into account, then
he can be judged only by God. I have no right to force him to
change nor to judge him as wrong. An action of this sort puts
me in the wrong.

IS REAGAN POPULAR?
Dear Editor
I applaud you for taking an
interest in the 1984 presidential
elections by publishing the
essay on "Why is Reagan so
Popular?" in your September
13 issue. However, I think the
view that Reagan isn't so
popular deserves equal time.
Some of us do not view
Reagan as the "Great Com-
municator" or a "bully pulpit"
president, but as a master actor
who does well at reading ghost-
written speeches, and as a presi-
dent who is little more than a
bullied puppet.
As a future teacher, I find
Reagan's policies toward
education lacking. Not only has
he had the funds for certain
programs (bi-lingual classes,
for example) cut off, but he has
not proposed any new pro-
grams for supporting public
schools. As pointed out in a re-
cent television documentary,
leaving schools to the county
and city systems could lead to
"two Americas" --one black
and one white, one rich and one
poor.
Reagan's ultra-conservative
political platform is one I find
difficult to support. Abortion
and prayer in public schools are
moral, personal issues that
should not be dictated by any
political government.
Reagan claims to have
benefitted the American public
by not raising taxes. In reality,
Reagan's tax cut helped people
making $80,000 a year pay
$7,000 less in taxes while those
earning $10,000 yearly ended
up paying $270 more in taxes.
The people paying more were
the ones who couldn't afford it
and who also will be effected by
the Reagan adminstration's
cuts to social programs.
Reagan's campaign is being
run on his personality and wit
(jokes which I don't find
humorous) and not on his
ideas. He hasn't spent much
time talking about the issues
that face America because he's
too busy trying to sing America
to sleep-singing songs about
what's right with America.
Reagan may well be a
"known celebrity," but so are
Donald Duck and Michael
Jackson, and I certainly
wouldn't want either of them as
president. I don't want a
celebrity decorating the oval of-
fice with his wife and his jelly
beans. I want a man who is in-
terested in the issues and who
doesn't need a tele-prompter to
respond to them. There's more
to the presidency than just a
nice smile.

VOTE REPUBLICAN
Dear Editor,
With November 6 only a lit-
tle more than a month away, it
is important for us to weigh the
pros and cons of the political
party elements. Most people
from this school, if they are
even reading the paper, pro-
bably looked at another article
when they read the words
political party. It seems that
most Adventist youth are not
interested in politics, which is
another way of saying you
don't care about the past, pre-
sent, or future and that you
would rather float aimlessly
through life letting others direct
you in your wanderings.
I'm sure that you have heard
of the evils of siding with a
political party. Well, there are
some evils that might help you
change your mind. As it was
stated in the Chattanooga News
Free Press on Sept. 19, 1984, in
"State Chief Says Demos Need
Help" the Democratic party
has adopted a proposal which
would "require 8t
Democratic structures to m0v
to integrate gays and lesbia '
into the party network "
This is a fact that so L
Adventist are aware of, butJ
is important to know! Ho
could anyone, unless gay 0r w
bian, especially Advent
Christians, vote for a party [hat
is integrating these people into
their system. Think about it

Reflections
J. Bruce Ashton
"In the beginning was the
Word." In all my ponderings
bbout beginnings or about
Bod, I would never have
thought of such a profound
|tatement as John makes. To-
Hay's cosmotologists are work-
ing toward the idea that "in the
beginning there was energy"--
[he strong force, the weak
force, the electro-magnetic
force, and the gravitational
force, all blended into one, all
ploding into the particles
ich became matter. But what
;ered the explosion? Where
id that concentration of ex-
losive energy come from?
The Christian who accepts
at "In me beginning God ..."
who reads in his New
'estament that God is love,
ight prefer to think, "In the
iginning was Love," and that
is true. Yet love, in order to
End fulfillment, needs someone
E)r whom love can be felt,
Rmeone to whom love can be
expressed.
A Word for You
Actually, of course, John
had to be right. God, with
whom the Word was, is a state-
ment of relationship, rather
than a name. We are still un-
sure of God's real name.
Elohim, El Shaddai, even
Jahweh, and all the other awe-
inspiring terms by which the
Hebrew referred to his God are
statements about some aspect
of His nature or His dealings,
rather than names as such. He
is, of course, willing for us to
call upon Him by any such term
as expresses our awareness of
His comprehensive greatness,
but His preferred form of ad-
dress is "Father." This, too, is
a statement of relationship.
How is it with your human
relationships? Do they not all
begin with a word? The
simplest greeting, "Hi," is the
opening (or re-opening) of an
acquaintance. Just as He must
have awakened Adam with a
friendly "Hello," so He con-
stantly reaches into our lives
with blessings-greetings which
invite us to re-establish contact
with Him. Our own greetings
are full of good will. We do not
say to even our enemies, as we
meet them on the sidewalk,
"May your grandmother die
before noon!" No matter how
habitual the words, our "Good
morning'"s are still wishes that
all may be well with those
whom we salute. How much
more is there good will toward
men in the greetings of our
God.
The next word is usually the
word of introduction. "Hello,
my name is ' ' gives the listener
a word by which I may be
thought of. "J. Bruce Ashton"
summarizes who I am, and
readily brings back to your
mind whatever you may know
of me. Most of us tend to be
very uneasy in the presence of
someone whose name we do
not know (or which we have
forgotten!). It is also true that
most of us will respond to any
of several names. To my kids,
I am either "Papa" or "Dad";
to my wife, "Bruce" (or any of
several sweet endearments); to
my grade-school playmates, I
used to be "Trashcan" (a
perversion of the last name, in
case you missed it); while my
father often called me
"Podunkus." I have even
answered (many times) to my
brother's name, since certain
people who knew the family
could never remember which
one of us I was.
Once the ice is broken, many
words usually follow. They
may convey interest in the other
person (usually these words are
assembled into questions), or
they may reveal information
about ourselves. They may be
words of instruction, of com-
mendation, of caution, of
reproof, of comfort. All of this
He was, and still is-this Word
who was with God, and who
was God.
How comforting to realize
that communication is so high
on God's list of priorities! Even
with all the super-novas and the
black holes, even as He is
guiding the wandering Arcturus
through the universe, He loves
to speak with me. Furthermore,
being such an outstanding
Word as He is, He knows the
necessity of being listened to—
and therefore of listening
Himself. No doubt His joy in-
creases as some gracious
greeting of His calls forth a
responding word of praise from
Indeed, how should we reply
to such a Word? We, too, are
words-words which symbolize
the fallenness of our race, yet
which also convey to Him the
beauty (His beauty) reflected
and restored in one He loves.
Your life is the medium, the
word, through which another
may hear the echo of His
greeting, and may find the
courage and humility to reply,
"My Lord and my God!"

to P.E. or Physical Education
majors and give students a
chance to have their writings
widely read. The booklet is put
in every SDA college and
academy library. It also can be
bought for $1 .50 at the Campus
Shop, so fellow students can
appreciate the creative art and
writing talents of those who
had the honor of being includ-
ed. Some of those in the book
last year were Sue Ellen Couch,

In comparing students during
the 1976-77 and 1981-82 years,
college officials report a shift
from humanities to science
majors.
Two new surveys of depart-
ment chairmen, deans and
other academic officials have
been released by the American
Council on Education recently,
From those surveys, nearly
two-thirds of those humanities
officials questioned said the
best students were changing to
majors in the sciences. Their
counterparts in the sciences
agreed with the trend.
Employment opportunities-
or the lack of them-seem to be
to blame for the switch in
studies. Slightly over half of
those questioned blamed the
shift from undergraduate
humanities majors on a poor

more reported concern of get-

Southwestern Adventist College Welcomes New ftesident J^ WGV FrOYYl CdftlDUS
Southwestern Adventist Col-
lege held its breath last Spring
following the decision of Dr.
Donald McAdams to terminate
his nine year term as president
of the institution. Under his
leadership, the college had ex-
perienced much growth and
maturity. It was the concern of
many that a new president
would be found who could con-
tinue to direct SAC wisely and
positively into the future.
On April 29, Dr. Marvin
Anderson was appointed the
21st president of the college. He
i the unanimous choice of
the ad hoc search committee,
and he was unanimously elected
by the college board on the First
ballot as well. At the time, he
s serving as vice president for
financial affairs at the college.
Dr. Anderson, 43, has many
years of experience at SAC. He
a business department pro-
fessor for five years, four of
■ which he was chairman of the
department. He has served as
president of Southwestern
Diversified Industries, the col-
lege's wholly owned business
conglomerate, for eight and a
half years. During this time,
SDI's revenues have increased
from under a million dollars a
year to 17 million dollars year-
ly. Anderson also served as col-
; president since 1976.
Since that time, the net worth
of the college has tripled.
Prior to his employment at
SAC, Anderson held many
other positions in the educa-
tional and business worlds. He
taught at Oak wood College,
Huntsville, Alabama; Loui-
siana Tech University, Rustin;
the University of Alabama,
Huntsville; Calhoun State Col-
lege, Decatur, Alabama; and
Drake Tech, Huntsville. He has
also taught courses at Tarrant
County Junior College. Before
beginning his teaching career,
he worked as a cost accountant
for the Univac Corporation and
a government purchasing agent
for the Redstone Arsenal in
Huntsville.
Because of his expertise in
the field of management,
Anderson is frequently called
on as a management consul-
tant, and he has spoken exten-
sively throughout the
Southwest on management
techniques. He is a member of
the Academy of Management
and the Western Economics
Association of College and
University Buiness Officers.
He holds the doctor of business
degree from Western Colorado
University, Grand Junction.
Reacting to his appointment,
Anderson said, 'When the
board called me in and told me
their decision, terror set in. I've
been part of this college ad-
ministration for the past nine
years, and I'm proud of what
we've done. With the Lord's
blessing, this college will pro-
vide even- more young people
with great education for lives of
Dr. Anderson's duties as
president will place him main-
ly in the role of overseer of the
college and in the task of public
relations. Much of his work will
be focused outside of the
college-dealing with alumni
and potential contributors to
the college. In addition, he will
still head up the 400-employee
SDI corporation.
Personal concern for the
students of the college has
shone through the president's
recent addresses to the student
body. His sensitive and caring
treatment of recent crises
among the student body have
been greatly appreciated. When
asked what kind of relationship
he wanted with the students on
campus, he made it plain that
he wanted it to be a very open
one. He wants to keep open
lines of communication with
the students, and he maintains
an open door policy. He says,
'There will be no secrets about
the operation of the college.'
At the end of tenure as presi-
dent, Anderson says, 'I would
like to think that I was fair,

more change in individual
disciplines, while the propor-
tion of students who stayed
within the humanities held
steady.
The two reports had big-time
financing; backing them were
the U.S. Department of Educa-
tion, the National Science
Foundation and the National
Endowment for the
Humanities.
"In both studies, officials
relied heavily on faculty percep-
tions in formulating their opi-
nions" based on the statistical
reports of their individual in-
stitutions , the survey said .
Questions about the quality of
undergraduate majors, ap-
plicants to graduate school and
doctoral degree recipients were
asked of the officials of 486 col-
leges and universities.
Contrary to much discussion
across the nation about declin-
ing quality in education, quali-
ty was not in question on the
collegiate surveys. Over half of
the institutions reported no
change in student quality.
Seventy-eight percent of the
humanities officials said they
have seen either no change or
an improvement in
undergraduate student
achievement.

President Speaks to U.N. a
Chattanooga Times
The speech Ronald Reagan delivered to the United Nations on
Monday was conciliatory in tone, inviting the Russians to pro-
vide for regular meetings on the ministerial and cabinet levels to
discuss all the issues at stake between the two nations. The Demor-
crats accused Reagan of softening up as the election approaches,
but Secretary of State Schulz said he thought that party politics
was not a motive, just an increasing desire on the part of the
Reagan Administration for better super-power relations.
Reagan and Mondale Make Points
Chattanooga Times
President Reagan met the Soviet Foriegn Minister, Andrei
Gromyko on Sunday, his first meeting with a ranking Soviet of-
ficial since coming into office. There was relatively little personal
conversation between the two world leaders, but Reagan assured
Gromyko that he wanted "nothing less than a realistic, construc-
tive, long-term relationship with the Soviet Union." Reagans com-
ments relfected the new thaw in U.S. policy.
Mondale will also meet Gromyko while he is in the U.S., hop-
ing to demonstrate his willingness to talk with the Russians as
opposed to Reagans reluctance.
Prices Up
News-Free Press
Despite a substantial boost in consumer prices (0.5 percent),
inflation is still running at a moderate 4.2 percent, not much above
last years figure of 3.8 percent. The August figures maintain what
White House spokesman Larry Speakes calls "the pattern of low
inflation established over the last two years." Price forecasting
experts prognosticate an increase of the consumer price index up
to around 5.5 percent where it should level off.
Explosion in Lebanon
News-Free Press
Based on a Lebanese military investigation, the death toll from
the bombing of the American embassy in Beirut has been reduc-
ed from twenty-three to twelve, two of whom were American.
'Islamic Holy War', the group who claim responsibility for this
bombing as well as the two previous blasts aimed at U.S. facilities
in Lebanon is a coalition of Shiite Moslem zealots supposedly in-
fluenced by the Iranians. The attack was accomplished despite
anti-tank blocks across the road and gunfire from embassy guards.
The state department is investigating security arrangements to
determine if the precautions taken were sufficient.

Break out the blankets and
the hot chocolate; it's time for
SC's All Night Softball Tour-
nament! The traditional end to
the slowpitch season begins this
Saturday night at 7:45 on fields
B and C on the opposite side of
the College Plaza.
This year there are 13 teams
of which five have good
chances to win it all. Kent
Greve's team entered Wednes-
day night's action with a 5-0
record. Greve is figured to be
this year's top seed. His tandem
includes Jim Hakes, power hit-
ting third baseman; Mike Krall;
and Dale Tunnell. Tunnell, if
i remember, captained the
winning team in last year's All
Night Tournament.
Royce Earp's team has a 4- 1
record. Earp is led by co-
captain Mike Dickerhoff, Den-
i Negron, and Rob Lonto.
John Hinkle says that "Earp's
team is probably the biggest
threat." Dickerhoff thinks that
they are the team to beat.
"Earp's team, of course,"
Dickerhoff said when asked
who'll win the tournament.
What does Earp think? "Either
lis or Greve. Kent certainly has
i strong team."
Other teams with a good
chance to come out ontop are
John Hinkle's team, Mike
McClung's team, and Steve
Jones'. Hinkle entered Wednes-
day night's action with a 3-0
record. Led by Kent Boyle, co-
captain Greg Cain, Toby
Fowler, and Jimmy Crone,
Hinkle seems to have the best
balance of any team in the East
Division. Colt Peyton of Jeff
Jewett's team feels that Hinkle
has a good chance to do well.
Ron Aguilera of Mike
McClung's team said "Hinkle's
team looks pretty good. They'll
be a tough team to beat."
Hinkle is a good leader and
that's the number one ingre-
dient needed for the all night
affair. It certainly makes a dif-
ference, especially about 3:23
Mike McClung's team aren't
pushovers themselves. After
Tuesday's victory over Earp,
McClung is now 4-1. Kent
Greve feels that McClung "has
the firepower but this one pitch
thing will kill them."
Coach Jaecks has installed a
new rule for the tourney. There
will be only one pitch per bat-
ter and no walks. Either you
swing or you die. Batters will
have pitchers from their own
team pitching to them. Greve
feels that very rule will work
against most teams with power
hitters who look for one par-
ticular pitch.
However, David Butler,
John Misckewisc, Jeff Stone,
and co-captain Ron Aguilera all
add punch to McClung's at-
tack. "McClung is the dark
horse team," Aguilera says. If
any team is worth staying up all
night for, these guys are the
ones most would watch.
Steve Jones' team features
Greg Hoover, Al Travis, Stan
Hobbs, Mark Bramblett, and
Scott Begley. Jones entered
Wednesday's games at 3-1.
Tradition has it that an average
team that does fairly decent
during the season is usually a
team that catches fire during
the tournament. "I wouldn't be
surprised if some of the average
and bottom teams come up,"
says John Hinkle. Jones' team
could fit that bill.
A team that hasn't done that
well but could catch fire is Bill
Dubois' team. They sure look
good on paper, but it just
doesn't happen for them on the
field. Dubois has a 2-3 record,
but Rod Hartle feels that will
change come Saturday night.
"I think we have a good team,
but right now we just haven't
been putting it together. Still, I
think it'll be one heck of a tour-
nament." Along with Hartle,
otherwise known as the great
home run hitter of SC, Dubois
boasts Jerry Russell, Rob
Shanko, Rob Buckner, Steve
Martin, and Scott Yankelevitz.
Regardless of who comes out
on top, this year's tournament
will be an exciting one. Come
early and get ready to root for
your favorite team. Games are
scheduled every 45 minutes.
After the 7:45 game slot, any
following games will be ac-
cellerated. For instance, a game
could end at 8: 1 5 and instead of
waiting for the scheduled 8:30
start for the next game, the
game would begin at 8:16.
Refreshments will be sold for
a reasonable price to help
benefit the gymnastics team.
Don't forget the blankets,
folks. Believe me, it does get
cold around 3:23 a.m. 1 know
from last year. BBRRRRR.

Greve 6 Dubois 3
For this Saturday night'
Bill Dubois' team has requested that
brown paper be put over the infield;
after all Dubois' team looks great on
paper. On Tuesday night they dropped
another one to give them a 2 and 3
record . Jim Hakes hit 2 home runs and
had 4 RBI's for the winners. For the
losers, it was another bad outing as
Dubois' team never really could get on
track. It seems that in their last few
games the bats have been in the ice box
since Dubois has had their problems
offensively.

Music to My Ears
George Turner
A couple of people have ask-
ed me lately why I'm not in one
of the choirs on campus. Well,
I'll admit I do like to sing, and
I do enjoy music. But I have a
problem, see--I don't under-
stand music. Someone once sat
me down and made me listen to
one of Beethovan's sym-
phonies...the third one in E
something-or-other. The whole
thing is supposedly built around
a triad of chords (is that
anything like a pair of cords?)
and tells this really intricate
story of some sort of hero.
Well, I hate to disappoint Mr.
B., but after two or three of
those triads the whole thing
changed from being a hero's
tale to being some pretty sharp
music. The story may have been
there, but they lost me
somewhere around Waterloo...
Of course, it's not just
classical music. Have you heard
some of the stuff they play on
KZ-106? The names of the
groups< alone are enough to
drive you batso— little cute
names like Steel Breezes, or A
Flock of Seagulls. ..wonderful.
And you're seldom 100 percent
sure what they're singing about.
Like the song a year or two ago
by Spandau Ballet;"! know this
much is true". How much is
true? What are they talking
about? Even when I can figure
out what the groups are singing
about, I still wonder why they
are. . .singing about it, I thought

Now country music is dif-
ferent. I'm not saying it's bet'
ter, just different. In country
music I can at least figure out
what's going on. The way I
understand it, all it takes to be
a country music star is have a
wife, girlfriend, and a bill.
Take, for instance. Hank
Williams Jr.'s song "Attitude
Adjustment". This guy has got
serious problems: his girlfriend
calls the cops on him, his wife
sits back and lets her brother
beat him up, and he's got a best
friend that likes to act like Clint
Eastwood. With a following
like that, I'd go around beating
people up, too. I like the song
that goes "Mama, he's crazy,
crazy over me." But I like the
male counterpart better-the one
that goes "Mama she's lazy,
lazier than me . " She must real-
ly be lazy because she's too lazy
to even write her own song.
I hate to admit this, but I
don't even understand some of
the songs in our hymnal. I've
got one hymn memorized and
yet I still don't know what a
"bulwark never failing" is. I've
read the Bible from cover to
cover and I've never heard
anybody called "Lord Sab-
baoth"..
You know, I think my
favorite song is "Happy Birth-
day to You"— it may not be
much on lyrical content, but at
least I know what's going on.
in history. In addition, there
will be a limited-service a-la-
carte cafeteria, and several con-
cession stands will serve tradi-
tional Adventist foods.
Since food supplies must be
ordered in advance, the food
service for the session will ask
delegates to pre-select and pre-
purchase tickets for the evening
meal (noon meal tickets will be

Another Name Change?
This past Tuesday, October
2, a hearing was held on the
name of the college. The
meeting was not well-attended
although the opinions that were
voiced certainly seemed to be
that of the majority of the cam-
pus. The hearing was not for
the purpose of actually chang-
ing the name, but to give
teachers, students, and others
an opportunity to let their feel-
ings known. Elder Clay Farwell
chaired the meeting.
The seemingly general con-
sensus was that it was the pro-
cess that bothered most people
', and not the current name; the
majority of those present wish-
ed that a decision be made
quickly. However, the same
majority also called for the cur-
rent name, Southern College of
Seventh-day Adventists, to be
kept.
Reasons for the keeping of
the current name lay mostly in
the financial area. Vinita
Sauter, Director of Public Rela-
tions, noted that her depart-
ment is currently producing
many brochures and videos
with the current name, and a
change would cost a great deal.
Olson Perry, Director of
WSMC, related that it was on-
ly recently that he had con-
tacted the FCC with the infor-
mation that our name had of-
ficially been changed, and this
had cost him $400. Another
change would cost the same
amount.Mary Elam, Director
of Records, said that a change
would also be an expensive
decision with reference to buy-
ing stationary and other
materials.
Despite these opinions, facts
were shown that a change to the
name Southern Adventist Col-
lege has been well received. A
survey that was recently
distributed among a random
selection of graduates, current
students and staff, and trustees
shows that Southern Adventist
College held the number one
position, with our current name
running second, and
Southeastern Adventist College
and Southern College (solely)
running third and fourth
respectively.
However, the recommenda-
tion of the committee is that if
a name change does occur, that
it be changed to commemorate
an individual. Some of the
possibilities are Daniells Col-
lege, Desmond Doss Adventist
College, and Spalding
Memorial College.
Although a future meeting
has not been set by the commit-
tee on the name change, Elder
Clay Farwell believes that last
Tuesday's hearing will help in
the decision making.
The school sign still reflects days of old.
Jones Hall to be Demolished
With the completion of
Brock Hall nearing, many
students are wondering what is
eventually going to happen to
Jones Hall. After the English
department moves out, the
building will cease to have any
function on campus. For this
reason, the Southern College
Executive Board decided on Ju-
ly 19, 1983, to raze Jones Hall.
A decision on who will do the
tearing down has not been
made, however, although the
college is getting various bids
for the job.
Maude Jones Hall was first
opened in 1917-18,only the se-
cond year of Southern Junior
College, as the women's dor-
mitory. The following account
from the book SMC: A School
of His Planning gives an idea of
how it looked that first year.
"The windows and door cas-
ings were not hung; the walls
were not plastered. Sheets were
hung up to substitute for win-
dows. There were no floors...
no doors. ..no heat. ..no water...
but the rooms were filled with
youthful happy students."
The woman Maude I. Jones
came to Southern Missionary
College in 1917 from
Washington Missionary Col-
lege. When she retired, she held
the record for number of years
Talge Hall Renovated
Michael 7. Bat (is tone
Upon returning to Southern

prise. For behold, I saw new

The "new look" in the Talge
lobby is part of an extensive
renovation program currently
being executed in the men's
residence hall. Beginning at the
end of the last school year and
continuing through the sum-
mer, the improvements have in-
cluded reupholstering the fur-
niture; laying new carpet; ad-
ding new plants, artwork, and
lamps; hanging new wallpaper;
and installing a new 55-gaUon
marine aquarium. Perhaps it
was the "woman's touch" that
^as needed-Drucilla Glass
assisted the men in the
redecorating.
The offices have been
remodeled as well. Dean Reed
Christman, Head Dean of
Talge Hall, swapped offices
with Mrs. Evans, the secretary,
and Mr. Evan's old office has
been converted into a computer
center. The facility, equipped
with seven computers and one
printer, is much more conve-
nient for Talge residents who,
up until now, have had to go
either to the business center in
the ground floor of the Student
Center or the computer lab in
Daniel's Hall in order to com-
plete a computer assignment.
Dean Christman's new office
has been refurnished with new
paneling, couches, and
bookshelves. Also, a new
guestroom has been added by
renovating the room next to
former Dean Nafie's old office.
In addition to the lobby and
administrative areas, the
hallways and some of the in-
dividual rooms have been im-
proved. New carpet has been
placed in 40 rooms and in the
halls of both A and B wings.
Walls, halls, doors and more
have been repainted, with much
of the credit for the actual work
due to Dean Qualley, who was
actively involved in the painting
of the building.
Of course, everything has its
price, and these improvements
are certainly no exception.
Rough estimates place the cost
for the lobby, offices, and new
carpet at around $16,750. The
expense is justified by the fact
that the changes were needed
badly and long overdue.
The renovations have not
been completed, though. "We
have done quite a bit, yet there
is still so much to be done."
Future improvements include
new curtains— which have
already been ordered— for most
rooms, and several fire safety
features, such as smoke detec-
tors. Changes in the present
water system will provide the
west wing with a greater supply
of hot water and will insure and
against malfunctions of the
water heater which many will
recall, left us without hot water
for a number of weeks last
year.
Currently, Deans Christman
and Qualley are drafting a five-
year renovation plan for Talge
Hall. Included in the project is
a restructuring of the northeast
parking lot; a proposal to
change the east exit by remov-
ing the low brick wall and
replacing it with circular steps;
and building shelters; similar in
architectural form to Talge
Hall, to cover the trash
dumpsters.
"What we have dope, the im-
provements we have and will
continue to make, will revitalize
the dorm and make it a nicer
place to live," states Dean
Christman. "We hope that the
men will be able to take pride
in their home and in doing so,
help us to keep Talge looking
spent in service in the faculty.
She died on Christmas day,
1961, at the age of 89.
During the Ws Jones Hall
served as a temporary dorm for
the men while the current Talge
and Thatcher Hall were con-
structed. Eventually, it served
the purpose of housing those
men who were over 23 and did
not wish to live in Talge and
those who did not fit in Talge
because of an overflow. In re-
cent'years, the building has
been used solely to house the
English departments.
Jones Hall will probably be
knocked down during this
Christmas vacation so as to
avoid the students who must at-
tend classes in that area. A deci-
sion of what eventually will
take its place has not officially
been made, although the Board
is leaning towards constructing
a parking lot for village
students.
Jones Hall will certainly be
missed by those who have either
lived or worked there. Yet the
name of Maude Jones will
never be forgotten on this
campus.

The Political Role
of Adventists
In contrast to years past, the Southern Accent has taken on
a different look and especially a different flavor. Perhaps the
flavor is what is most noticeable to those who take the time to
read the paper. The latest comments are that the Southern Ac-
cent has become political in substance. The apparent difference
is no coincidence. This year being as election year, we believe that
this community should be knowledgeable of the issues that are
involved in a presidential campaign. Most everyone realizes the
church-state issues because our church keeps everyone aware of
them. However, many of the other issues should be considered
important among ourselves, also.
The title Adventist does not mean we are to be totally separated
from politics; it does not mean that we are to be ignorant of issues
and apathetic towards voting. (Our title is a statement of two of
our prominent beliefs.) If one lives in a country, the individual
should be concerned with who runs it and how they (the politi-
cians) run it. These individuals include our social group.
How then should an Adventist approach the elections? The
answer is that we should leam the issues and the stances both Mon-
dale and Reagan take on them, consider what effect, if any, their
views will have on church-state relationships, and also consider
which man will provide the leadership this country needs. Then
we should vote on the better man.
Some may remark that in this presidential election, the populace
does not have a desireable choice: Reagan poses the danger of
heavily mixing religion and politics, and Mondale is too liberal.
Therefore, the proper stand is to not vote at all. However, a deci-
sion not to vote is a decision for the winner. An attitude of apathy
is a decision of approval for whoever wins this year's election.
It is with these thoughts in mind that we say that an Adventist
should vote in this year's elections and in future ones, also. The
role of the Adventist is to help make those decisions that will help
make this nation a better one.

Opinions expressed
VOTE RESPONSIBLY
Dear Editor,
After reading Royce Earp's
letter to the editor last week, I
feel I must take issue with
several things this young man
wrote about. It seems this man
has included only bits and
pieces of a newspaper article to
prove an invalid point and then
gone one step further by urging
students to do what we have
been counseled not to do by the
Spirit of Prophecy.
The article which he quoted
in the Chattanooga News-Free
Press which talked about the
National Democratic Party re-
quiring state parties to integrate
gays and lesbians into the par-
ty network also included
women and the elderly. The ar-
ticle also went on to say that the
Tennessee State Democratic
leadership had flatly refused to
seek gays and lesbians and that
the state party had absolutely
no plans to engage in such ac-
tivities at any time in the future.
The Tennessee State
Democratic Party Chairman
also does not actively support
Mondale. It is clear that not all
Democrats are the hard core
liberals characterized by Mon-
dale and Ferraro. Many local
Democrats refused to even
show up at the airport to greet
Mondale when he visited Chat-
tanooga recently.
Mr. Earp also advised
students to ignore our counsel
of not voting for political par-
ties and urged people to vote
Republican. It doesn't matter
whether or not he has said
Democrat or Republican, we
should not vote for a person
simply on the basis of their par-
ty affiliation alone.
As Seventh -day Adventists,
we should be intellectual
thinkers. We should be
registered to vote and vote
responsibly. The only way to
vote responsibly is to take the
time to find out something
about the general beliefs and
value system as well as in-
dividual issues that the various
candidates have. When we tell
someone to simply vote straight
Republican or straight
Democratic, we are asking
them not to think for
themselves.
Lets face it, not all
Democrats or Republicans are
created equal. I know because
I am a conservative politician
running on the Democratic
ticket this year. I believe in
strict separation of church and
state; I am anti abortion but
anti-Moral majority; and I
can't see eye to eye with either
Mondale or Reagan. Reagan's
church-state issues are
dangerous while Mondale is too
ultra liberal. I am not sure that
I can responsibly vote for either
this year. Think about it Royce
Earp, and vote responsibly.

HANDICAPPED REMEMBERED
Dear Editor,
Last week a note was drop-
ped in the Wright Hall sugges-
tion box concerning handicap-
ped access to Brock Hall, which
is about to open. The concern
was that there were not
elevators between floors and
without the elevator it would be
difficult for disabled and han-
dicapped individuals to gain ac-
cess to the building. The whole
idea of making buildings ac-
cessible is that they be accessi-
ble without having to go up
steps. Regulations do not re-
quire all buildings to have
INCLOSED
do© as
elevators and do not require
every building to be alike
When the Music Building
Humanities & Business Center
(Wood & Brock Halls), as well
as the proposed third phase (an
auditorium) were planned i
the 70s, it was suggested by the
architect that they be planned
as a total complex. With this
total planning in mind, the ar-
chitect suggested that one
elevator would be sufficient to
serve the total area. Elevators
are extremely expensive to pur-
chase and to keep maintained,
and it was on the architects ad-
vice and suggestion that the
complex was planned with c
elevator in mind.
Access to Brock Hall is
similar to access of other cam-
pus buildings. As long i
buildings are accessible from
■some exterior point, lifts,
elevators, and ramps do not
have to be in place. Brock Hall
is fortunate in that it is very
close to a building with
elevator and that Wood Music
Building has the same elevation
levels as Brock Hall. The col-
lege administration realizes its
responsibility and obligatic
meeting the needs of the han-
dicapped and will continue to
be sensitive to them.
I appreciate the Accent
publishing this letter as I have
no other way to commmunicate
with the concerned parties
about this.
Sincerely,
Richard K. Reiner
Vice President for Finance

Reflections
A Letter To Heather
lori Heinsman
"Lori, my dear," wrote
Heather, "you are a
knowledgeable college woman.
[ need some college advice."
"I thought I wanted to go to
the University of North
Carolina. I read their catalog,
and it sounded like a great
place-until I read that they
have an enrollment of 21,000!
21,000... That's about one half
of the whole city of Daytona!
In a school that big there's go-
ing to be huge classes, and I'd
probably be treated like a
number. Mr. Hose (my high
school English teacher) told us
that at big schools like those,
you just put your student I.D.
on your paper and don't use
your name for at least the first
two years! And with the large
classes-how can you learn?
When I was in independent
study French IV, I didn't learn
much. Sure I got A's, but it was
all hurry up and memorize. I
didn't learn anything.
"There is the other side of
the coin. 21,000 students-
imagine the diversity. There are
six publications, over 200 clubs
and plenty of guest lectures and
concerts, etc."
"Then I think. ..gee Heather,
academics are much more im-
portant than extra-curricular
activities. So-what are your
thoughts on the matter? How's
Southern? It's smaller. How
many people are in your
classes? Are you learning a
lot?"
I replied, "Dear Heather, I
thought you'd never ask. I shall
take this opportunity to pour
out my wisdom on the col-
lege/university topic.
"My theory is this: the
amount of fun and learning one
achieves in college is directly
proportional to the amount of
friends one has. (Spoken like a
math major.) Since I believe
you get to know more people in
a smaller college, a com-
paratively small college is the ■
wiser choice.

iSM Club Prepares and Shares
! La Ronda Curtis
Last weekend approximately
forty students went to Cohutta
Springs Camp for the Student
Missions Club Fall Retreat. The
weather was a little cold, but
the spirit was a warm one. The
weekend provided a chance for
students to meet new people
and become aware of student
mission work in and outside of
the United States.
The theme of the retreat was
"Preparing and Sharing." The
group did much sharing, and
hopefully it helped to prepare
the way for other students to
choose some form of mission
service. Friday night was the
beginning of the sharing, when
presentations were given by stu-
dent missionaries and taskforce
workers. Each one shared a
part of his or her
perience with the rest of group.
Sabbath School and Church
were held in a casual setting.
More students shared their ex-
periences as taskforce workers.
Dr. John Wagner taught the
Sabbath School lesson and
brought out the fact that we
have a mission to the whole
world, including our own
Southern College of Seventh-
day Adventists.
Our special speaker for the
church service was Dr. Norman
Gulley. He shared several per-
sonal experiences that had been
significant in his spiritual
growth. In conclusion he ap-
pealed to the group to get in-
volved with mission work.
Despite the rain on Sabbath
afternoon, the group decided to
go hiking. During the medita-
tions program student mis-
sionaries and taskforce workers
who are out in the field now
were remembered individually,
followed with more sharing.
Many parts of the world were
represented among the group.
Reports were given on Africa;
Ponape; Belize; Mexico;
Brownsville, Texas; and
Highland View Academy.
The people in the Student
Missions Club want everyone in
the school to feel that he or she
can be a part of the mission
program, even if it's not possi-
ble to take off school and go
somewhere else for a year. It is
important for the students at
Southern College to give sup-
port to those who choose to do
this kind of work. The Club
hopes that even more people
will attend the spring retreat.

probably won't find that in a
class so huge the professor
doesn't know you exist. To be
honest, I didn't appreciate the
teacher familiarity here until I
read your letter. I guess I took
all that for granted. Remember
all the fun we had with our
teachers in high school? Even if
our high school wasn't the
largest in the state, it didn't
scrimp on academics any.
Yeah, I'm all for smaller
schools. I like my teacher to
know my name.

homework, and all the activities
planned here take up so much

I'd never sleep!
"There's my opinion. I
wouldn't even consider a big
school right now-why don't we
just worry about them when
grad school time rolls around?
The best advice I can give you
is to give a Christian college
some serious thought. You
don't have to choose Southern
(Hey, if you don't like the
name, we'll change it for
you!!). And I know when you
weigh your choices, the tuition
here weighs a ton, but I still
chose it over public college.
You can't beat it. I know I
made the right choice."

Out of 387 people responding to the poll which the
Southern Accent conducted, 312 felt that the
Reagan/Bush team should lead the country for another
four years. The largest percentage of the respondents
(from dorm students, village students, and Faculty/
Staff responding) choosing Mondale and Ferraro was
the members of the Faculty and Staff of which 19%
chose the Democratic duo. The results of this survey
are printed on the right. This was an informal poll and
the percentages may not be totally accurate. The

Dr. McArthur Writes Book
'Where the Candidates Stand"
Mondale
Ron Aguilera
Southern College is very for-
tunate to have three prominent
scholars in its history depart-
ment. One of them is Dr. Ben-
jamin McArthur. Dr. McAr-
thur has recently written his
book, Actors and
American Culture, 1880-1920.
Dr. McArthur graduated
with a B.A. in history from An-
drews University and received
his Master's degree and PHD in
American history from the
prestigious University of
Chicago in 1979. Dr. McArthur
then came here to Southern
College and is now in his 6th
year of teaching. Many
students know Dr. McArthur
from taking his American
History or Government classes.
In his book, Dr. McArthur
deals with the golden age of
' nerican theatre and
America's desire for glitter and
glory in entertaiment. Actors
°nd American Culture,
1880-1920 belongs to a series,
"American Civilization,"
edited by Allen F. Davis. The
book evolved through revision
of McArthur's doctoral disser-
tation, which he did at the
University of Chicago. He pin-
points 1907 as the year marking
"the arrival of the 'celebrity'."
Up through the late 1800's "ac-
tors had the right to control ex-
hibition of their photographs,"
writes McArthur, although this
privilege was surrendered by
1907.
Dr. McArthur also notes that
actors provided society with
vicarious freedom, and "in ef-

The gymnastics team has
been assembled for this year,
and it looks like an enthusiatic
one with a lot of new blood.
Myron Mbion, the student
assistant, feels that the strength
of the team's previous years has
graduated so this is a year of
rebuilding. He's optimistic
about the team, though, and
says that they are willing to
work, have a terrific attitude,
and have a lot of potential. The
new team members are:
Chris Lang, Mike Collum,
Kerry Brito, Floyd Hiebert,
Allen Valenzuela, Jon
Marcom, Myron Mixon, Tim
Tullock, Scot Henderson,
David Butler, Tommy Bates,
Paul Jenks, Julie Reed,
Shauna McClain, Donna
Kyzer, Karen Artress,
Vonda Clark, Rani Styles,
Sandi Monteperto, Karen
Schwotzer, and Kim
Robertson.
In choosing the team, besides
the basic skills required,
balance, guts, positive attitude,
and willingness to talk about
the Adventist life-style were
considered. The team will be
going to local malls to perform
at our health booths. Also, they
are scheduled for programs in
Jacksonville, Florida, Bass
Academy, and Oakwood Col-
lege. Their main project for this
semester is the Southern Union
Gymnastics workshop. About
300 academy students will be
coming to this clinic, financed
by SC's Public Relations
Department.
There are two changes in this
year's team. The first change is
a plan to incorporate more
team activities, such as
pyramids; a choreographed,
fast-paced, difficult routine us-
ing mixed doubles; and a slow
silhouette routine using black
lights and acentuating lines.
The second change is a dif-
ferent coach, Ted Evans.
Coach Evans feels excited and
a bit nervous about coaching
the team. He coached a gym-
nastics team for three years
before he came to SC and
hasn't been involved in
gyinaristics in the last ten years.
He say's "I'm committed and
the team's committed, and
there's no telling how far we
can go and what we can do.
Also, Myron is a good guy to
lean on because he has
organizational skills, is a good
teacher, and full of ideas."
A new member of the team,
Vonda Clark remarked "Coach
Evans is organized, has a lot of
Christian spirit in wanting to
keep God number one, and
seems like he will add a lot of
fun." The team caught a taste
of Evan's humor when they j
were invited to a four-course
meal at his home. Those who
were weight-conscious saved
calories for the expected grand
meal. After being seated at a
long table, they were handed a j
list of items they could order in
their four courses. The names
of the dishes gave indications to
what morsels were to only the
most perceptive minds, so not
until after ordering did they
discover what their supper was •
to be. For example, a sleeping j
relative was a napkin, Eve's
temptation-applesauce, breath !
charger-onions, and a atomic
power-beans. If one didn't hap- I
pen to order a fork-well, that 1
was too bad. The team
retaliated by disappearing out- 1
side after the second course so
that Coach Evans would serve ]
an empty table. After the 1
"meal" restrictions were lifted, "
everyone satisified their growl-
ing stomachs. With a team |
beginning like the above, SC j
will probably be in for a
novative'and interesting home J
show program second semester. j
An Analysis of
Women's Softball
softball
Steve Martin
This year in women's
Mickie Easley's team came out
on top with a flawless 6-0
record to win this years
Women's Softball Champion-
ship. There were seven teams in
this years Women's League.
The final standings are as
follows:
Women's Slowpitch
Team Wins Losses
Hanman

•
Easley's team boasted a very
explosive offense anchored by
Easley herself, First baseman
Loretta Messer and short stop
Andrea Kiture. Easley's team
averaged 15 points a game, and
was by far the best team in this
worn is league.
Ea .ey felt she had a good
team his year but was dissa-
poin i in the participation of
the \ >men this year. The big
conti versy that kept coming
up at year was the "Pick-Up"
rule. This rule w;
keep forfeits to a
the girls that wanted to play
could," says Steve Jaecks, "but
it was. misused some this year.
I was very dissapointed in this
years Women's League as a
whole." Easley also felt that the
"Pick-Up" rule was misused.
When asked if she had any sug-
gestion for making women's
softball better she said, "I
would like to see the women
have a tournament, not as long
as the mens, but something that
the women would enjoy.
Maybe a singles elimination
tournament would be ap-
propriate. 1 also would like to
see a Faculty women's team. I
would really like to see fastpitch
for women. I think that with
practice and time women could
make the adjustment and enjoy
a new aspect of the game."
1 asked Steve Jaecks his view-
point on these matters and he
said, "these suggestions are
good ones and I would be will-
ing to try them if the women
show an interest in wanting to
do it. There is no need to make
these changes if only half the
girls show up for there games.
There are alot of good
women athletes at S.C. and this
reporter would really like to see
more participation and the
limits that are set on women's
sports lifted.

Just Another Tricky Day
| Gart Curtis
I'm going to tell a little story
I about a day in my life. Yea,
Ithat's it. You know, "hang
|five" and all. I was driving in-
j town. . . nothing special in
was cruising; I like to
|just cruise along. Also, my car
won't do anything else.
There are some very nice
tomes along the way. They are
big rambling places with lawns
Jthat I would hate to mow, and
■ beautiful drives up to the doors-
I -the American dream come
I true, more or less. Also, there
are some places that make me
think of the third world, not
quite Kwampachea look, but
definitely not the style brought
to mind when we think of
civilized western life. Anyway,
there is some scenic driving
around here, if you are in-
terested in contrast. . . OK.
I was going to town because
I thought maybe there would be
a sale on Arrow shirts or
something. Also, I wanted to
get a fish. The one I borrowed
from the dorm lobby apparent-
ly had a breathing problem
because he stopped about an
hour after he was poured into
his new home. (Don't tell the
dean! I was going to put him—
the fish-back so that he could
be eaten alive in a split second
by a trigger fish. Really, I
didn't want to alter his destiny;
just let him kick back for
awhile and enjoy some cool
jazz or something.)
But like I said, I was going to
town (on the freeway now) with
Mr. Ed (that is my car's name)
at a legal lope. I passed by the
knife museum and wondered
for the thousandth time what
could be so interesting about a
bunch of old knives. For a mo-
ment, I could see it all, "Jo Bob
Billy Jack caponized the last
bear in these parts with this
knife back in 1859. He (Jo Bob)
later died of food poisoning at
the ripe old age of 42." Or
maybe, "Gen. Lee used this
knife to clean and trim his
finger nails on this very spot in
the heat of battle. What a
guy."
(Dear Reader, you are by
now probably wondering where
I am going with this narrative.
Suffice to say that I am still go-
ing into town.)
So, I was going into town at
a legal lope, like I already said.
The gas gauge was low; isn't
everyone's at SC? I pulled off
the slow lane just after East
Gate Mall, because that's where
I was going. I was in a
masochistic mood and
wouldn't have minded a little
pain; I was ready to be maul-
ed. (Incidentally, that is an old
term which usually refers to
something or someone being
ripped up and destroyed
beyond recognition by either a
bear or a lion. The term is ac-
tually derived from the ex-
periences old ladies have when,
on Friday afternoons , they
enter these institutions without
hearing aids or glasses.)
I put Mr. Ed in a place where
he would be comfortable for
awhile and entered through the
Burger King. Suddenly I flash-
ed on something else I could
get. . .a room key. My thoughts
went sort of as follows: I don't
leave a stamp with my signature
in my check book; I don't keep
my code number written on my
automatic teller card; I don't
leave a note that says "these
keys are to my car, license
number thus & such." Do you
follow me? Why should have
my room key with my room
number on it? If lost, it is an
open invitation for someone to
make themselves at home in my
room, not that I'd really mind,
but you know. Besides, it costs
ten dollars to get another one
from the front desk, but if I
lose a copy, it's only a dollar to
make one in town.
As it turns out, there is a lit-
tle note on the back of the key
that says something like, "Do
not duplicate." And it costs fif-
teen dollars to bribe the
locksmith-obviously a cost
prohibitive venture. Not to
mention, it would be on my
couldn't live with
myself having bribed someone
for no monetary gain.
So the trip to East Gate was
a waste because there were no
Arrow shirts on sale, and the
pet store had moved out. No
new clothes, no fish, and no
generic room key. . .it was a
waste of gas, a waste of time,
and if you want to get picky, it
was a waste of tire tread.
After I had walked around
the mall some more, and all
these wastes finally dawned on
me, I went out to* the parking
lot and tried to remember
where I parked. When I got
back to my car I gave Mr. Ed
his head, and he naturally
started for California. I had to
warp him back towards
Collegedale.
It was a nice drive actually.
I had the windows rolled down
and the radio turned up. The
sun was setting and some high
clouds in the west were reflec-
ting yellow and red light. I
wondered if it was possible to
see the green flash over land.
The sky above me was a sharp
azure while in the east it was
darker, and a few of the
brighter stars were getting a
head start on the night. The
bugs were staying out of my
way, bless their hearts; they
weren't crowding the wind-
shield. The road seemed a little
smoother than it really was. I
had one hand on the wheel and
one hand cupping the wind that
was whistling over the side
Just off Lee Highway there
is a crooked old guy who lives
in an old cinderblock
bungalow; he has it tastefully
decorated after the third world
look, which is in vogue in his
neighborhood. I honked my
horn in sort of a salute to him,
as is the custom, and he grin-
ned and waved back.
At four corners I stopped
and scowled at the local sup-
plier of caffeine for SC.
Back at school I was just in
time to miss dinner. I was so
happy. Mr. Ed was grateful to
be turned off. I bounded up to
my room determined not to tell
a soul that I had gone to town
and had not invited them. Some
people take that very personal-
ly. This taking of offense can
lead to an awkward little con-
frontation in which both parties
make it clear to the other that
just because you've met
one.. .doesn't mean you've met
them all.
I didn't meet one. And so I
didn't have to act like one.
In the words of Roger
Daltrey, "Just another tricky
day for me."
Terry. . .
spinal column back together,
but the critical danger hadn't
passed. About three days after
the surgery, Terry quit
breathing and for five weeks
lived on a respirator.
"Those weeks were the most
depressing," Terry said. 'I
couldn't talk, and in three
weeks I lost 40 pounds. I'd look
out my window and see spring
bringing everything to life while
it seemed my own was simply
disintegrating." After getting
off the respirator Terry began
to overcome the shock of his
accident.
"There's really no way to
describe how traumatic it was,"
Terry said. "I was so physical-
ly drained that I had no emo-
tional strength. As I started to
get better I regained my emo-
tions and started rediscovering
myself. I was a totally new
person."
After his hospitalization
Terry went to Birmingham,
Alabama, for rehabilitation
where he was taught the current
living techniques for the
paralyzed. He then began adap-
ting to a new style of living.
"You never snap back," he
states. "You have to start from
where you are, and slowly, very
slowly, things change back to a
normal life."
"I had grown to feel like a
machine," he contiunes, "with
doctors talking about my heart
and blood pressure in a way
similar to a couple of men
discussing the engine of a
Chevy. It was hard to start feel-
ing like a person again,
discovering a personality, tastes
in clothing, etc., when for such
a long time my only goal was in
staying alive."
Being the fighter that he is,
Terry accomplished that goal,
even making it to his gradua-
tion at Highland during his
rehabilitation period.
"It's not courage so much as
it is simply wanting to live,"
Terry states. "I have a strong
desire to live; I love life and am
more ambitious now than I was
before the accident."
Before, Terry had wanted to
major in computer science and
business, and work with his
father in "Wilks Publications."
He also wanted to join the gym-
nastics team here at Southern
though he claims he was never
"super good."
Now, he's working on a
degree in mechanical engi-
neering, following his enjoy-
ment of design, and hopes to
finish it up at Georgia Tech.
"I've always wanted to be an
engineer," Terry asserts, "and
I decided that it would be bet-
ter for me to go for something
I really wanted than something
I felt I ought to do."
His interests, Terry main-
tains, have not changed
dramatically. He simply found
new ways to enjoy them. He
loves horses and someday
hopes to breed and raise them.
Terry is also an artist. He
draws with a pencil in his
mouth, with his face six inches
from the easel, a fact his talent
has not suffered from.
Yet despite the adjustments
that he has made, Terry has
often wondered "Why me?"
and has experienced times of
bitterness directed at the seem-
ing unfairness of his physical
handicaps, but adds that he
tries not to think about such
things anymore.
"They say not facing the
facts is bad," he said, "but
sometimes it is necessary-in
order to keep persevering.
Since the accident, Terry
believes that his spiritual life
has become more realistic. "I
see God as my partner and aid,
more than an imperial to
serve," he states.
I feel God has given me a set
of general guidelines, " said
Terry, "and wants me to find
my own way in them."
Terry is determined to suc-
ceed in his future, whichever
direction it takes.
"Life has dealt me a hard
blow," he admits, "but it can't
stop me from living."

Letters.
THE "TRUE ISSUES"
Dear Editor,
This letter is in response to
your last issue's publication of
a letter from Valerie Boston.
She apparently is not informed
about the "true issues" that are
involved in both macroecono-
mics as well as our country's
system of politics.
She says, in essence, that
Reagan's economic policies aid
the rich and hinder or deprive
fhe poor. Is she totally unaware
that the number one enemy of
the poor is a high inflation rate?
Reagan has only cut the infla-
tion rate by better than fify per-
cent. What more is he to do
help them in this regard, short
of handing out meal tickets
She also criticizes the fact that
he was an actor and is able to
communicate with great expet-
tise. Does she desire another
president that keeps us in the
dark about his policies and
can't communicate effectively?
Also, what's wrong with con-
centrating on the good in
America instead of dwelling on
the bad. Didn't someone once
say that a positive outlook wil]
bring a positive outcome?
In closing, please let us open
our minds to the whole story
before we begin to pick at the
details.

The First Editorial
written by Frances Andrews
The purpose of the Southern Accent during the current school
year is to give wide coverage of the news and activities of Southern
Missionary College. Friends and parents of students will be kept
informed of happenings on the campus, and students themselves
will learn of events with which they are unfamiliar.
As the size of our college increases, and the number of activities
grows, constant improvements will be made in the paper. We an-
ticipate maintaining the same size and grade of paper as we now
have, with as many cuts and cartoons as possible.
Therefore, support the paper representing your interests at
Southern Missionary College. We need 1700, but hope for 2000
subscriptions. The campaign for subscription * (sic) ends October
31. If you haven 't received a letter, send in the attached blank.
We want you to know what's happening at Southern Missionary
College. pEA

The Business Club has
started signing up members.
For five dollars one will be
issued a share (membership
card) that will entitle the holder
"to all rights, privileges and ac-
tivities for the 1984-85 fiscal
year" of the local Business
Club," said the recently-elected
President, John Brownlow.
At the last club chapel,
(Thursday September 27) the
Division of Business and Office
Administration intended to
elect nine members to the Ad-
visory Board from the seven-
teen on the ballot. Since there
was a tie there are ten people on
the Board. They met Monday,
October 1, to elect officers
from among themselves.
The officers of the club are
John Brownlow, President;
Susie Crabtree, Executive Vice-
President and Public Relations;
Steve Wilson, Vice-President
for Finance; Garth Thoresen,
Vice-President for Social Ac-
tivities; Donald Chase, Vice-
President for Religious Affairs;
Chip Cannon, Vice-President
for Records; Mike Dickerhof f ,
Gary Howe, Bobby Kendall
and Mike Waller, Advisory
Board Members. Sponsors are
Richard Erickson and Dan
Rozell.
To the accusation that the
dues this year are a dollar over
last year's, the President
responded, "But they're going
to get a lot more for then-
money than last year."
"We're excited about the
coming year," said President
Brownlow on election day.
When asked what he had
planned, Brownlow was not
very enthused about being
quoted since he had had little
time to confirm arrangements.
However, some of the
possibilities to be investigated
and planned are the following:
Business Club Weekend Retreat
at Fall Creek Falls, Christmas
party, vespers in the Student
Center and faulty residences,
fall-colors train trip, excursion
to Stone Mountain for laser
show, benefit film, etc.
Last Saturday night, the first
Business Club-sponsored activi-
ty occurred in the Talge Hall
rec room. Refreshments were
served to about eighty people
who populated the room that
night. The main activity was the
showing of the video Mr.
Mom- a hilarious exposition of
modern role reversal.
These plans were made
within the first one hundred
minutes of the Brownlow Ad-
ministration, making the
outlook for bigger and better
things exciting. With this in
mind, the Business Club en-
courages you to sign up.

Professor Joseph L. Correa,
an educator and well-known
speaker from Peru, South
America, will be conducting a
seminar on mind conditioning
as it relates to today's Chris-
tians at the Apison SDA
Church School Auditorium this
weekend.
"People are being pro-
grammed and manipulated by
many things in today's socie-
ty," says Correa. "There is so
much deception going on in the
area of mind conditioning that
we want to make people aware
of what is really happening."
Correa, who has a Master's
degree in music education and
psychology, along with his wife
Lindy, has done extensive
research on the subject of men-
tal health and human behavior.
Consequently, he offers insight,
information, and counsel in the
area of positive Christain
motivation.
Four different presentations
will be made, one on Friday
evening at 7:00 p.m. and three
on Sabbath at 9:30 and 11:00
a.m. and 5 p.m. The final
presentation on Sabbath after-
noon, entitled "St. George and
the Dragon," is an informative,
multi-media program revealing
deceptions ranging from con-
temporary Christian music to
games such as Dungeons and
Dragons,
The seminar is intended to be
useful for Christians desiring to
build a strong personal relation-
ship with God and replacing
negative atitudes and thinking
for a more positive successful
life.
"Anyone wanting to reduce
their lukewarmness and lack of
interest in spiritual things,
should not miss this seminar,"
states Mrs. Correa, who along
with her husband has given this
instruction to Christians all
over the U.S. and win be travel-
ing to Rome, Italy, next week
to conduct a seminar there.
The seminar is free, open to
the public, and intended to be
of interest to all age groups.
The auditorium is located on
Bates Road near the intersec-
tion of Brainerd Road and
Apison Pike about three miles
from Collegedale.

Annual Pops Concert
This Saturday
U
"America 1984" will be the
central theme for music to be
presented next Saturday night
by four major musical groups
at Southern College of Seventh-
day Adventists.
The Southern College Pops
Concert at 8:15 p.m. on Oc-
tober 13, in the Physical Educa-
tion Building, is a program in
the Artist-Adventure Series on
the Collegedale campus.
The 66-member Symphony
Orchestra, directed by Orlo
Gilbert, will lead off with "The
Star Spangled Banner" and "A
Star Spangled Spectacular" in
the first segment. "Brian's
Song," "Yesterday," and
"Dance of the Comedians" are
also planned.
"Step to the Rear," "Save
the Bones of Henry Jones," "If
1 Had a Hammer," and "Blue
Skies" are some of the popular
numbers in the repertoire of the
Chamber Singers. The mixed-
voice group is composed of two
dozen students led by Dr. Don
Runyan.
' 'A bunch of Southern songs
which take care of some re-
quests" will be played by the
Concert Band, according to Pat
Silver, conductor. "Dixie,"
"Chattanooga Choo-Choo,"
"Carolina in the Morning" and
"Alabama Jubilee" are a few
of them. A march, "The
Southerner," as well as selec-
tions from the musical, "An-
nie," will be included. Over 80
members are in the band.
The fourth campus musical
organization on the progarm
will be Die Meistersinger, led by
Dr. Marvin L. Robertson,
chairman of the Divison of
Music at Southern College. Ty-
ing in directly with the Statue of
Liberty stage setting, the male
chorus will be singing, "Give
Me Your Tired, Your Poor."
Other numbers are "Once in
Love With Amy,""One of
Those Songs," and as finale,
"Battle Hymn of the
Republic."
General admission is $1 at
the door.
The greatest of faults, I should
say, is to be conscious of none.

Fall Religion Retreat
A Success
The same weekend that the
SM Club held its fall retreat,
the Southern Ministries
Association held its own.
Braving the cold weather, the
Division of Religion and the
religion majors' club co-
sponsored a retreat last
weekend at Hidden Valley
Youth Camp in Apison. Along
with the blessings of a relaxing
weekend of fellowship, those
attending were refreshed by
Elder Warren Johns' presenta-
tions on the unique blending of
theology and geology. Friday
night the speaker demonstrated
Adventist's distinctive roots are
in God's creative powers and
His promised second coming.
Thus the importance of our-
name Seventh-day comes from
Genesis, and the name Adven-
tist comes from Revelation.
Following a chilly evening,
we gathered for Sabbath School
in the warm dining hall the next
morning. The adult Sabbath
School was presented by a
panel of students, moderated
by Dale Morgan. Many cob-
mented that it was the highlit"
of the weekend.
Sabbath afternoon was speal

allowing the retreat to achieve
its goal-a time to escape fro"

After this time of leisure, El*

analogies and lessons which o*

As of July 1, 1982, Southern
Missionary College will be no
more. In a meeting held Tues-
day, February 16, the Board of
Trustees voted unamimously to
change the name of the institu-
tion to Southern College of
Seventh-day Adventists.
Of the 19 members present,
all were in favor of the name
chosen. Also present at the
meeting were about 50
members of the Committee of
100 and 20 or so faculty
members. In a general vote
taken, all but two were oppos-
ed to the name chosen, but all
;ere in favor of change.
Reasons given for the name
change included the problem
I some graduates were having on
I job searches with the word
I "missionary", as employers
■ were concerned that students
■were trained for oversea mis-
Ision work instead of recogniz-
ling SMC as the liberal arts col-
llege which it is. Another reason
I given by Dr. Wayne Thurber,
College Public Relations Direc-
tor, was that when trying to get
various foundations to donate
money to the school they are
apprehensive about the word
"missionary."
The name was derived from
a suggestion by a name change
committee headed by Bryan
Strayer— Southeastern College.
The name was shortened to
Southern for a couple of
reasons according to SMC
President Frank Knittel; the
first reason being that the union
in which our college is situated
includes more than the
southeast region of the country;
the second being to avoid con-
fusion with the new
Southeastern Conference of
Seventh-day Adventists.
Dr. Knittel reported that he
will fully support the name
change decision. When ques-
tioned about the student reac-
tion to the change Knittel
said, "There is always an initial
adverse reaction when an in-
stitution changes its name,"
and cited a similar discordant
attitude which existed when
Emmanuel Missionary College
changed its name to Andrews
Univeristy in the past.
When speaking about the ap-
parent length of the name com-
pared to the present one Knit-
tel says,"l anticipate that an
abbreviated version. Southern

or Southern College, will
become common vocabulary. ' '
Knittel also feels that the addi-
tion of "Seventh-day Adven-
tists" to the end of the name is
no major concern as several
other church related institu-
tions, hospitals, etc., have this
addition to their names.
Thurber reported that this
name change idea has been an-
ticipated for three or four
years.
The general reaction of the
students is one of strong op-
position. Soon after the name
change was voted on, before
the faculty-board banquet,
which followed the board <fl
meeting, was over, more than
700 students had signed a peti-
tion that asked the board to
reconsider its decision.

Era Ends as Talge Hall Comes Down
The old makes way for the
new, and an era ends as Talge
Hall comes down at Southern
Missionary College.
Talge Hall, named after Mr.
John H. Talge of Indiana, has
been razed at SMC, and a new
library will go up in its place.
Shortly after having moved the
college to its present site from
Graysville, the College Board
planned a new men's dormitory,
to be started in 1918 and finish-
ed in 1919.
The men lived in what was
called the "Yellow House," (the
Thatcher Mansion), in tent
houses, and in an old make-
shift dormitory. Part of the
money for the new dormitories
was provided by the General
Conference, hut it was insuffi-
Mn. lilva Gardner writes in
her history that World War I
had interfered in raising funds
and getting necessary help to
complete the building in time for
the opening of the fall school
term in 1919.
"BhV' Mrfi. Gardner con-
tinues, "the two union presi-
dents, Elder Branson and Elder
Wight, called in most of the
workers in the two unions con-
ference for a 'workers bee* to
help erect the new building. All
who could leave their work came
with overalls, hammers, and
saws. The fifty that responded
lived in tents while erecting the
new dormitory. These were
joined by a few volunteer work-
ers. One of the men, who had a
broken arm, still did his part in
planning the work and over-
seeing the enterprise. No archi-
tect was employed.
"The lumber used in the
Billy Sunday Tabernacle in
Atlanta. The men pulled out the
nails, straightened pounds of
them, then found they couldn't
use the nails because they
couldn't be driven into the hard
wood. It was while these men
were building the dormitory that
they heard the November 11,
1918, Armistice Day excitement

dormitory ran out early in 1919,

lumber and by Unking it and
doing other fobs suitable to
their ability. The dumiiloty was

of the depression of 1920-22.
At the Founders Day pro-

had been dedicated to "Mr.
Talge, whose interest in' the
growth and development of
Southern Junior College,
prompted him to support loyally
the founders and burden-bearers
of this institution in those crises
where the challenge brought
from him such abundant and
outstanding liberality that the
future success of the college
must always be due in no small
measure to his generous gifts."

A Dedication...
In keeping with the theme of this issue the Accent Staff
felt that it would be a good idea to interview the very
first student editor. There was one problem with this
idea, however: to Find the person. First of all, we had
to checkout the bound issues in the SDA Room of the
McKee Library. After going through the first few
issues, we found what we were looking for. This
reporter wouldn't have to go very far to track the first
editor down for an interview. The very first student
editor of our school paper was Frances Andrews, who
is currently teaching in the Communications Depart-
ment here at Southern College. Miss Andrews has been
part of the college for nineteen years as both student
and teacher. She has at one time or another filled nearly
every staff position on the paper. The Southern Accent
would like to take this opportunity to dedicate this
anniversary issue to Miss Andrews.

May I state first that my feeling

my thinking. I definitely feel that
Missionary College will be a detri-
ment to this school, its purpose,
its standing, its student body, its
standards and its progressive future.
Influential Factors
First, my observation. Surpris-
ingly enough, one of the strongest
arguments for changing the name
is in actuality the strongest reason
for not changing it: "Everybody

Not that they have just suddenly

Connotationi
Fourthly, my thinking. This, I
ask everybody to do for the next
few minutes, hoping, of course,
that the above paragraphs have
already stimulated this process.
Several students have feh that the
word "missionary" in our name is
a stigma. These students, the ma-
jority being freshmen — and from
my own experience as a freshman,
have empathy with them — feel that
people outside our denomination
have a completely different con-
notation of "missionary." This
word, they seem to feel, brings to
mind immediately a boat trip over-
seas, seclusion, sacrifice and aft
about-face to intelligence and
scholarly, collegiate education. In
hand as part of the steps in getting
a job, we naturally would like to
influence the employer with a
highly accepted and well-known
college name, meaning the influ-
ence of thought that goes along
with such names as Duke, North

One of the highlights of this
year's Artist Adventure Series
is "The Best of Candid
Camera" featuring Allen Funt
on Saturday night SMC Alum-
ni Weekend.
Funt is world renowned for
his ability to catch ordinary
people unaware through
endless variations of practical
jokvs on film. Since 1954 Funt
has oeen capturing expressions
of lie average US citizen by
hiding microphones and
can eras virtually all over the
country.
A good indication of Funt's
popularity is the fact that all the
tickets for this program, in-
cluding the no charge section,
were sold out within a span of
four hours. According to Dr.
Jack McClarty, Director of the
Artist Adventure Series, "We
had planned on opening a ticket
booth at the College Plaza, but
it was all too apparent that we
would not be able to go any far-
ther than the Student Center.
As long as there have been Ar-
tist Adventure Series, there
have always been seats
available. This is simply
amazing 1
In the future, says Dr.
McClarty, it might be possible
to have the same program
twice, once on Saturday night
and once on Sunday night on
Alumni Weekends. He stated
this when referring to the fact
that the reserved sections for
the Alumni constitute nearly
one-half of the available seats.
At the conclusion of the Can-
did Camera program, Funt is
willing to talk with those who
are interested in communica-
tions or those who are curious
about his work.

Imunity are concerned about
Idrug traffic, but few of them
Irealize that even the campus's
■night patrol occasionally
tbecomes involved in investiga-
tions to thwart the problem.
Jack Kovalski, an SMC stu-
Ident and paid member of the
^■patrol, related an incident to me
I of last spring...
Following a lead that perhaps
a narcotics deal might be "go-
ling down" in the student park,
1 Jack, Dean Brunken, and Ted
I Webster surrounded the park
I and began to penetrate it on
1 foot. Ordering walkie-talkie
I silence among themselves (so
I that the supposed dope dealers
[ wouldn't hear their approach)
L they slowly closed in; the an-
[ ticipation of danger up ahead
wound their nerves into tight
L coils.
Then, abruptly, PamKeele's
shattered the night
silence, as it errupted from the
three talkies at full volume, to
| ask, "Are you boys scared out
I there?" (She was, herself,
seated comfortably, safely at
the Thatcher desk dispatch
J radio.)
Anyway, as Jack explained it
to me, the sudden sound of her
voice in that silent night, as they
crept toward possible danger,
gave him the same sort of a
start one feels when someone
walks up behind you and shouts
BOO! He claims that his
physical reaction, an impromp-
tu high jump, may have exceed-
ed any on record!
By the way, no criminals
were found.
Then Jack recounts the night
he was touring the biology
building's lower level, flashlight
in hand, when suddenly he en-
countered a bobcat, fangs
bared, paws audaciously raised,
eyes agleem with ferocity.
It was a apparent from his in-
itial fear that the taxonomist
had done superior work!
And, then there was the night
(2:30 a.m.) that Jack and Dean
Brunken found themselves in a
foot chase, in heavy pursuit of
a suspect who was fleeing the
campus area. When they had at
last detained the suspect, one of
those classic moments of em-
barrassment ensued; the suspect
was a woman, in her 40's, who
was merely indulging a whim to
go jogging.
Did you know that it is
general procedure for the night
patrol to stop and question
anyone found wandering on the
campus grounds after 10:30
p.m.? Mrs. Knittel, let 'em
know you're coming in ad-
vance! (sic)
More on the serous side, and
in all fairness to Jack, his job
is not a comedy, as it would
seem. In this interivew he
displayed devotion and en-
thusiams toward his night wat-
chman's job, and he admitted
frankly and openly that he was
concerned about the image the
night patrol projected to the
public it serves. He expressed
fear that perhaps students have
an incomplete understanding of
the role of the night patrol, and
may refuse to recognize it as a
legitimate extension of campus
law enforcement.
So far this year, Jack reports,
security has been quiet-
perhaps partly because last year
a CB and car stereo theft ring
was caught by the Collegedale
and Hamilton County Police.
This ring could hit six cars in
broad daylight!
Sounding ebullient and op-
timistic, Jack contended that
with the higher quality caliber
of young people that are atten-
ding SMC this year, most pro-
blems of theft will be external.
The night patrol- they don't
carry guns, but they still serve
you and me. Their principal
tools are their eyes and their
ears, and sometimes swift legs.
So, remember... 10:30!

AWWARE Program Started By Students
Lori Selby
Although substance abuse
I traditionally has not been a ma-
I jor concern within Seventh-day
I Adventist institutions, in recent
lyears, the subject has come
lunder much scrutiny. Accor-
Iding to several sources, the
Ttrend among college age young
eople—unfortunately, in-
cluding some SDA young
people— is a shift towards
alcohol consumption, which is
legal and readily available.
Larry Williams, a professor
i the Behavioral Science Divi-
sion and a practicing profes-
sional counselor, commented
le of the reasons young
beople get into substance abuse:
first, it can be a means to cope.
j secret that the American
family is under attack and that
Increasing numbers of young
eople are dealing with the pain
£nd problems of a broken
Another aspect is that

required to master more
material in less time than in
years gone by. The academic
and financial pressures have in-
creased tremendously. Also
confronting Adventist young
people is the questioning within
our church. Though hammer-
ing out doctrinal issues and our
relationship to Mrs. White can
be a positive thing, for some it
produces a sense of uncertainty.
Second, young people may
get into substance abuse, not as
a coping mechanism, but "just
to party." Peer pressure may
play a role in each of the above
categories if the young person
has not settled on his own value
system and learned to make
decisions independently. Guilt
and low self-esteem may also be
contributory factors. Whatever
the reasons, substance abuse re-
mains a dead-end street.(For
another viewpoint on why some
young Adventists get involved
in substance abuse, see the
March 13, 1984 issue of The
Review.)
Recognizing this trend,
several students here at
Southern College have formed
an organization to help those
involved in substance abuse.
AWWARE, (Adventists Work-
ing With Addiction Rehabilita-
tion), is headed by Cary
Hambleton and Kevin Klinvex.
Kevin, a junior psychology
major-religion minor, was rais-
ed in an atmosphere where
drinking was accepted; later he
and many of his friends at Penn
State "partied." He says he
understands the part alcohol
can play in some people's lives
and that he's seen the effects in
the lives of his friends. Cary
Hambleton, who attended SDA
schools, has overcome the pro-
blem of alcohol in his own life.
The two emphasize that they do
not look down on those involv-
ed with alcohol or drugs-
they've been there and they
know.
AWWARE started out
primarily as a support group
for those wishing to get out of
substance abuse. Cary and
Kevin, and also Mark Wedel,
and Karen Heidenriech, are
available anytime day or night
to talk with someone having
problems with drugs or alcohol.
Kevin states that it's very im-
portant for a young person to
have a support system of
friends other than a drinking
group, and that it's important
for that person to see that he
can have peace in his life
without alcohol.
AWWARE has expanded to
include educating the student
body about drugs and alcohol,
and most importantly, how to
help someone who is involved.
The group has presented chapel
programs and films, and is ar-
ranging for guest lecturers who
will teach how to recognize and
deal with substance abuse.
Funded through CABL,
AWWARE is sanctioned by
Everett Schlisner, Dean of Stu-
dent Affairs, and by the dor-
mitory deans. However,
AWWARE is operated entire-
ly by students. Kevin explains
that kids who shy away from
faculty as authority figures,
may relate better to a peer who
has been through a similar ex-
perience. AWWARE, in addi-
tion to group support, will be
able to refer those with more
extensive problems to Roses
Coleman Taylor, a professional
counselor in the community
who serves as an advisor and
resource person. Kevin stresses
that confidentiality is important
to each member of the group.
In several weeks the group
will be meeting with represen-

Thursday Raid Results in
Emergency Meeting
H.M.S. Richards, Jr., to
Preach at Chattanooga
One might say that it was in-
evitable once the signs pro-
claiming that the electricity
would be out Thursday evening
went up. That night a host of
i from Talge Hall went on
|a raid in Thatcher Hall, the
women's residence.
The reason for the black-out
I was that the Power Board need-
| ed to change a transformer in
Because the Village
f Market and other businesses
continue their business until
9:00 p.m., the Power Board
elected to do their work from
9:30 on. A decision to do the
work earlier would have
resulted in lost revenue for
these businesses.
However, no sooner had the
lights gone out at approximate-
ly 9:40 p.m., Thursday, did the
"fun" begin. Shouts and
screams of men and women
chasing each other in the area
between the residence halls
went up immediately. All of
this bantering was in innocent
fun until plans for a raid were
formulated.
Suspecting that an occur-
rence of this sort might happen,
[he men's and women's deans
had the residence assistants pro-
tecting meir respective halls and
arding
Thatcher Hall. When the men
insisted on pushing their way
through security, the police
were called in. During the raid,
a security guard was hit by a
student; however, who the in-
stigator of this incident was (the
guard or the student) has not
been confirmed.
Some of the men were suc-
cessful in their attempts to enter
Thatcher Hall and subsequent-
ly embarked on a raid of the
women's rooms. This part of
the incident was short-lived,
and fortunately, nothing was
vandalized.
When all was thought to
have ended for the evening,
another incident involving an
unidentified student and
another individual took place in
Talge Hall. After exchanging
some heated words, the student
hit the individual, knocking
him to the floor.
Concerned that the raids of
the last two years have gone too
far, Everett Schlisner, Dean of
Students, called a meeting for
this past Sunday evening, Oc-
tober 14, in which all student
leaders participated and in
which Thursday night was
discussed. Wanting to get some
student input as to how the raid
ids should be
handled, Schlisner used some
of this information in a faculty
meeting held Monday morning,
October 15. Schlisner related to
the student leaders that raids of
the dorms will not be tolerated
any longer. Individuals who are
caught or who are found to
have participated in a raid will
be disciplined. (The appropriate
disciplinary action was discuss-
ed Monday morning. Another
topic to have been discussed
was how to handle those in-
dividuals who are known to
have participated Thursday
evening.) One of the student
leaders, Russell Duerksen,
brought up an idea as to how
to handle emergencies like the
Thursday night black-out: In
the future, the administration
should be prepared to channel
the built-up energy into positive
activities so that the raids will
not occur again. The majority
of the leaders liked Russell's
idea, and plans of this sort will
be implemented in the future.
In relation to Monday's
meeting, at the time of this
writing, none of the contents of
it had been released. However,
Dean Schlisner told the student
leaders that the student body
will be informed of its
dec!

H.M.S. Richards, Jr., direc-
tor of the Voice of Prophecy
radio-broadcast, will be the
guest speaker at the Chat-
tanooga First Seventh-day
Adventist Church on Saturday,
October 20. Pastor Richards
will speak for the morning wor-
ship service which begins at
1 1 :00 a.m. During the Sabbath
School, commencing at 9:30, he
will report on action taken dur-
ing the recent General Con-
ference Annual Council and
talk about the Voice of Pro-
phecy's outreach ministry.
Southern College students and
the Collegedale community are
invited to participate in this
special occasion of worship and
fellowship.
The Voice of Prophey, one
of the longest continuous
religious radio broadcasts in the
nation, was founded in 1930 by
Pastor Richards' father,
H.M.S. Richards. Since then
the program has expanded un-
til it is heard daily or on Sun-
days on some 750 stations in
North America. Overseas,
another 1,100 stations carry
radio programs that bear the
same name or are closely af-
filiated with the Voice of
Prophecy.
Pastor Richards, a longtime
favorite of the church's young
people, has spoken at
numerous youth congresses, Bi-
ble camps, and campmeetings.
Many students and community
residents, who have become
familiar with his ministry over
the years, will look forward to
the privilege of welcoming him
to Chattanooga. The church is
located at 400 Tunnel
Boulevard.

Editorial
OTo Break the Rules Or.
An ironic phenomenon has come to my attention It can be
discovered by following a logical sequence to reveal the cone u_
^n We are a people who abide by and uphold the pnncple bebef
taa d^raTright? We vote people into office « .the, ■«
govern our country. We give people power-it is not extracted from
usTrTke iawfand rules for us to obey. We re* on their jud-
men, in setting up standards by which we follow. W£^
tog aU that and proclaiming with pnde that we are a democracy
of the people, by the people, for the people, we turn around and
break the very laws which we set up through our power to begin
with, isn't that strange? Couldn't a lot of steps be avoided rn
establishing our form of government if we weren t going tc .follow
the rules that those in power made by our request in the beginn-
ing? We could just let everyone do as they wish, nght? How proud
would we be of our system then?
One might reason that there are a lot of rules that are made
up that we just can't go along with. How many? Sure there might
be some rules that we don't agree with, but because we have given
authority to a certain group of lawmakers and because we claim
to be a constituent of this country, we have at least a moral obliga-
tion to follow almost every rule. "Render unto Caesar that which
is Caesar's." It's the plain, ordinary, easy-to-follow rules that give
me reason to wonder why people break them. The most simply
stated rule of the land that probably 99.99 percent of the citizens
of this country have broken is that of the speed limit. We go 65
instead of 55 because we know most cops will give you 10 miles-
i per-hour grace (except in Collegedale of course).
The same phenomena is seen here at Southern College. How
proud would we be of our school if everyone were allowed to do
anything they wanted? You might say it would be great, but would
you really think so if that were a reality? And yet we continue
to break the basic rules that were made to uphold the standard
of a Christian school. Why would someone want to break into
the women's dorm?
It's the minute laws that are made, that perhaps we don't even
know about, that would seem to get broken most frequently. But
why the most common rules that make us as a country or a school
distinct? 1 believe there are some questions that need to be
answered.

Here at the University of
Denver, we are progressing
with the Physics Department
research project: Henry
Kuhlman, OrviUe Bignall, Gary
Burdick, and Erin Sutton are
each more or less involved in it
with me. So are scientists in
Brussels, Belgium and Heifei,
People's Republic of China. It
is so interesting that, when the
time for a scientific idea comes,
you find involved people com-
ing "out of the woodwork."
(That's different from saying
"off the wall," isn't it?)
Our family has rented a pic-
turesque old house four miles
up University Avenue, across
from the Botanical Garden. We
have had visits from Gary Bur-
dick and Jim Eldridge.
We had some three inches of
snow on September 25 and
again a day or so later. Now it
has warmed up again. The
snow-capped Rocky Mountains
are so beautiful, as we see then,
just west of Denver.
Faculty and students at SC
can be very happy with their
ready access to computers, with
the instant services of the
Records Office, and with the
quality of the instructional pro-
gram. SC is not inferior to the
University of Denver in such
areas. May God be with all of
you during this 1984-85
academic year.

Ever since its inception on
the Southern College campus,
the Secret Sister Program,
which was originated several
years ago by Sigma Theta Chi
(Women's Club), has been a re-
sounding success.
Evidence of its success can be
found throughout "the campus.
Walking slowly down the
hallway in Talge Hall from the
lobby with a container of ice
cream from Baskin Robbins,
Jon Marcum exclaimed with
excitement, "Secret Sisters are
really great!" Passersby in
Talge lobby can perceive the
aura of enchantment in the
gentlemen who anxiously paw
through the box labeled,
"From Secret Sisters." Expres-
sions such as, "This is great,"
"Wow, I got a letter from
"Smiley"; can you believe it?"
and "This girl is on the ball!"
can readily be heard.
Many women have similar
reactions. Several of the women
had remarks similar to the
following: "Sounds pretty
good. I like having a secret
brother even though I think
mine already knows who I
am." Sheila Elwin said, "it js
excellent. It has helped me to
get to know some people that I
never would have gotten a
chance to meet." Diana Green
exclaimed, "It's fun. It makes
life interesting!"
Despite the overall success,
however, some women have
been disappointed because their
brothers have not written to
them. Either these men have yet
to realize the fun the Secret
Sister Program can be or they
beUeve that they are too busy
for the program. Consequent-
ly, it has been suggested that
these individuals at least write
" a letter to their respective sisters
with the reason they wish (
discontinue writing. This deed
will guarantee that all parties
will be partially satisfied.

Reflections
The Charley Gordon Syndrome
•
David Smith
Growing up as a twin often
frustrated me. Much as I
wanted to be myself, others
wouldn't allow me my own
I identity. The members of the
church in the town where I grew
[ up often referred to my twin
: as "those cute Smith
Iboys." Now what young, active
boy wants to be described as
"cute"? I would rather they
would have called us "little
bevils" or any other more ap-
propriate phrase. What injured
fay young sensitive ego the
Iiost, however, was when so-
neone would walk up to and
[variably ask, "Now, which
! you?" It seemed to me
lever had a name; I was
limply "one of the twins," and
my immature mind that
yiewpoint seemed to be my
predestined identity for life.
I grew up experiencing the
benefits and the deficits which
i dual identity can offer one. I
well remember one time when
brother and I had
nisbehaved during camp-
neeting one summer, and my
grandmother took it upon
herself to discipline us. She
went into the tent we were stay-
and composed herself
s Ellen White counsels
parents to do before disciplin-
rig their children. Once she was
[ under control, she invited my
I brother into the tent. He
I relunctantly accepted her in-
I vitat ion and received what I am
I sure was his just due. When he
I emerged from the tent, the two
I of us stood there weeping and
■"consoling one another. Grand-
I mother retreated to the tent to
again compose herself before
dealing with me. When she
finally came out of the tent, she
grabbed by poor brother and
started yanking him into the
tent again. He protested rather
vehemently: "But Grand-
mother, you already spanked
me!" Her reply brought him lit-
tle comfort, though it did lift
my spirits some: "Now, David,
it won't do you any good to
he." She promptly pulled his
struggling little body into the
tent and spanked him again. By
the time she discovered her
mistake, she found it impossi-
ble to collect herself, and, con-
sequently, I never did receive
that spanking. Now I'm sure
that my dear brother deserved
a double spanking, though I
can't remember what he did,
but it did trouble me greatly
that my own grandmother
didn't seem to know who I was.
One doesn't have to be a twin
to experience an identity crisis.
In fact, college students are par-
ticularly vulnerable to a par-
ticular type of identity conflict,
one which I like to call the
Charley Gordon Syndrome.
Charley Gordon is the pro-
tagonist in the film "Charley."
In this fictional plot, Charley,
whose IQ is extremely low, is
used by a group of ambitious
scientists as the prime guinea
pig in an experiment designed
to test the possibility of ar-
tificially improving human in-
telligence. After surgery tiggers
major changes in Charley's
mental capabilities, he
undergoes a period of
traumatic intellectual growth.
His mental growth rate pro-
gresses much more rapidly than
his emotional and social
development. As a result,
Charley has changed so rapid-
ly, and his head is so cluttered
with new information that he
cannot successfully understand
himself.
This identity conflict
becomes the focus during the
film's climax. In this scene,
Charley is interviewed by the
world's leading scientists. These
scientists ask Charley many dif-
ferent questions designed to test
the depth of his newly acquired
intelligence. His accurate but
flippant responses quickly con-
vince them of his superior
knowledge. But Charley,
frustrated with what he
perceives as the shallowness of
these scientists1 own
knowledge, asks them a ques-
tion, a question which neither
he nor they can answer. His
question is this: "What is the
answer to the question-Charley
Gordon?" Charley's life has
become one big question mark,
and he pathetically reaches out
to the great minds assembled in
that room and asks for an ex-
planation of who or what he is.
But
has
Charley, as a result of the
surgery and of the accelerated
intellectual growth which he has
experienced, no longer has a
clear identity. He has learned
too much, too fast, and he
hasn't had the time he needed
to keep up with himself.
Certainly many college
students are subject to this same
syndrome. They experience all

the horrors of pressured learn-
ing during their college careers.
They spend anywhere from two
to five years continually cram-
ming knowledge into their
brains, and they seldom have
time to keep up with themselves
emotionally or spiritually. Stu-
dying, eating, attending classes,
working, and, occasionally,
sleeping, form the deadly
routine many college students
find themselves trapped in. This
routine threatens to convert
each of them into a very large
question mark. They walk
about their various campuses
wondering "What is the answer
to the question-(their name)?"
I'm thankful that an answer
to that question can be found
in God's Word. The disciples'
experience with Christ amply il-
lustrates how an answer can be
found to this question. As
Christ prepared to carry out
His earthly ministry, He chose
disciples to help Him, and He
trained them so they could
carry on His work after He was
gone. Sines He had only three
years to accomplish His mission
and to educate these men con-
cerning His own identity and
His special task, He continual-
ly exposed the disciples to a
pressured learning environ-
ment. How puzzled the
disciples were as they watched
their Master perform miracles,
as they heard his strange say-
ings, as they observed his
challenge to the established
customs of their people. Their
days were filled with new ideas
and experiences, and they
couldn't seem to keep up with
their Teacher, much less to
keep up with themselves.
The quizzes Christ gave His
students challenged them, but
more importantly, they helped
the disciples better learn about
Christ and about themselves.
Two key quiz questions Christ
posed to His disciples are found
in Matthew 16: 13-15. The first
question is, "Who do men say
that the Son of man is?" The
follow up question asked: "But
who do you say that I am?" I
find it significant that Christ
found it more important that
His students understand who
they were. It is apparent from
reading the Gospels that Christ
understood his disciples much
better than they understood
themselves. Christ's prediction
of Peter's denial is one classic
example of this. Yet His
greatest concern was that they
understand, not themselves, but
Him. The reason why this was
so is simple yet beautiful. Christ
knew that only by merging their
human identities with His
divine one, only by denying self
and following Him, would
these men be able to carry on
His work. Only then would
they be able to understand
themselves. Christ was as much
as saying to them, "If you can
understand who I am, if you
can lose your life for my sake,
then you will not only find Me,
but you will find yourself as
well. The most important ques-
tion Christ ever asked His
disciples was: "What is the
answer to the question-Jesus
Christ?" The disciples quest to
answer that question resulted in
the merging of their identities
with Christ's; it enabled them
to enjoy all the benefits of a
dual identity with God Himself.
This dual identity enabled these
humble men to turn "the world
upside down" (Acts 17:6).
Are you a big question mark
walking around the campus of
Southern College? Do you feel
overwhelmed by the pressured
learning environment which
you are daily exposed to? Do
you feel as though you are pass-
ing yourself up, as though you
don't have time to "find
yourself"? Then take the time
to answer the question-Jesus
Christ. Lose yourself for His
sake, and find Him. If you will
do this, then you will discover
that the world is no longer tur-
ning you upside down, but,
thanks to your new understan-
ding of your Lord, and of
yourself, you will be turning the
world upside down. And the
dual identity which you will
gain from this experience will
enhance your life in ways you
never dreamed of and will of-
fer you eternal joys and per-
sonal peace.

h
Maude Jones Hall Dedicated
Miss Maude Jones was
signally honored at a simple
ceremony on the steps of the
young ladies' home on Satur-
day, September 29, when the
girls' dormitory was officially
renamed Maude Jones Hall.
Elder T. K. Ludgate, chairman
of arrangements, presided at
the short service, and President
K. A. Wright offered the
dedicatory prayer. As Con-
ference President, ELder E. F.
Hackman expressed the com-
pliments of the Union. A poem
for this special occasion ws
presented by Miss Margarita
Dietel.
Literally hundreds of
students who have attended
Southern Missionary College,
some of them now serving in
foreign mission stations, will
remember Miss Jones as she
stood before them in her
classroom. To them, her
response to the remarks of
Elders Hackman and Ludgate
will have a familiar ring.
"This little ceremony has
brought to me the realization of
one of life's greatest longings--
the desire to find an individual
whose affection was deeply
enough rooted to cause forget-
fulp.Oss of the homeliness of my
name, and to produce a will-
ingness to bestow, at least, part
of it upon some .unsuspecting
helpless infant.
"There may have been a few
promises along the way, but no
fulfillments, and ever 1 have
had to comfort myself with the
thought that genuine altruism
would forbid grief over the
failure of either friends or
relatives to place upon a child
the name of an identification
tag that I had always secretly
resented.
"Imagine then, my utter
amazement when confronted
with the suggestion that the
girls' home, the very walls of
which are filled with sacred
memories of a twenty-one year
sojourn there was to be given,
not part, but all of my
•place, insignificant
"And so my yearning has
come true in a larger measure
than I could ever have
dreamed. Formerly, I had
hoped for the calling of a sim-
ple child after me; now, I am
experiencing the joy of seeing
my name emblazoned upon the
brow of a mother whose
sheltering arms are destined to
enfold hundreds, yea
thousands, rather than one.
"First of all to my heavenly
Father, and then to the
members of our board, to you
Elder Hackman, president of
our Union, to you Elder
Wright, president of our
Southern Missionary College,
to you friends assembled here,
and to those I know throughout
the Southland, I extend sincere
appreciation and warmest
gratitude for this signal honor.
Not even the sense of my own
unworthiness can dim the
gladness of this honor.
"Because for years, many
and blessed, my very existence
has been bound up in the life of
this school-its sunshine and
shadow, its successes and
sorrows--I could wish for no
more fitting climax to this ex-
tended period of loving service
than the assurance that I shall
still have a place in its thoughts,
even when I shall have ceased
to pass in and out among its
busy activities as in the golden
long ago.
"From the depths of a heart
flooded with greatful memories
of twenty-eight unforgettable
years, I thank you each and
every one, and pray that our
association begun in this college
planted by God's own hand in
the midst of the beautiful
valley, may reach its perfect
fruition in that eternal school of
the hereafter where there will be
no more growing old, no more
perlexities, no more doubts, no
more failures, but instead,
endless youth, sweet peace, ever
increasing faith, and a ceaseless
passage from glory to glory."

SC Delegation Attends Bible Conference
Brent Van Arsdell & JT Shim
Forty eight Southern College
students attended the Inler-
Collegiate Bible Conference
GCBC) at Camp Yorktown Bay
near Hot Springs, Arkansas.
ICBC is a get together for
spiritual growth for Southern
College, Union College, and
Southwestern Adventist Col-
lege. This meeting was the
fourth annual and largest ICBC
and was coordinated this year
by SAC.
The SC group left Col-
legedale Wednesday night in a
van and on the touring bus for
the all-night drive to camp.
After a brief separation of van
and bus, a stop for breakfast at
McDonald's, and a walk
around Hot Springs, the group
rolled into Camp Yorktown
Bay half a day later.
Since SC had arrived first
they had the entire camp to
themselves for swimming, sun-
bathing, water skiing, jet ski-
ing, sailing, horseback riding,
and relaxing until a combined
lunch/supper was served late
afternoon. The SAC delegation
arrived about six.
That evening the two schools
participated in an event known
as an "Ice Breaker" designed
for the delegates to get to know
each other. College students en-
thusiastically indulged in some
of the most ridiculous activities,
which contributed to a sense of
unity. The UC group showed
up about five hours later
because of bus trouble.
Friday dawned rainy and
grey. Several SC students
remarked that it made them feel
at home: "Just like back in
Collegedale." The rain con-
tinued on and off all day, but
mostly on. Umbrellas had not
been on the list of things to
bring, but a few students had
the foresight and common
sense to bring one.
Two study sessions began
simultaneously at 9:30 a.m.
Gary Swanson, associate editor
of Listen Magazine, spoke on
peer pressure. One of his
demonstrations was to have
five people selected apparently
at random to respond to some
questions. On the third ques-
tion the first four individuals in
the lineup had been previously
instructed to give the obvious-
ly wrong answer. The last in-
dividual was expected to go
along with the crowd. Vonda
Clark, a student here, did not.
"This was the first time that
this has happened," Swanson
claimed.
Dr. Norman Gulley, pro-
fessor of religion at Southern
College, spoke on eschatology.
With the help of his overhead
projector and screen, he ex-
pounded on last day events. At
1 1 :00 the two groups switched
lecturers.
The afternoon was free time,
with the hardier souls skiing,
canoeing, jet skiing, and riding
horses in the rain. Fortunately
the water was warm, and most
people enjoyed themselves in
spite of the weather.
SC had vespers. Bob
Folkenberg and John Dysinger
led out in song service. Ron
Whitehead, camp director, in-
cluded in his remarks the sug-
gestion that Folkenberg take up
music as a major in addition to
his theology. Elder Jim Her-
man spoke.

casts, will appear in concert on
Sunday, October 21, at 8 p.m.,
at Southern College of Seventh-
day Adventists.
The program, a part of the
Chamber Music Series
presented by the Division of
Music at the college, wil be in
Ackerman Auditorium on the
Collegedale campus. Admis-
sion is free and the public is
welcome.
Quartet members are Chris-
tian Teal and Cornelia Heard,

cello. They have given concerts
from New York to Californina,
on National Public Radio, at
the National Gallery in
Washington, D.C., and the
Religion Dept. Gets Own Home
Lori Heinsman
The Division of Religion will
finally have a place to call its
own when Miller Hall is
transformed into the Religion
Center and renamed Sojuco-
nian Hall. Renovation, per-
formed primarily by the
Southern College Engineering
Department, is projected to be
finished by August, 1985.
The name "Sojuconian"
refers to the alumni of
Southern Junior College (SJC).
SJC was the name given to the
college before it became
Southern Missionary College.
Religion Chairman, Dr. Gor-
don Hyde, describes the So-
juconiansas "some of the most
generous supporters of S.C. in
all of its endeavors-an extreme-
ly loyal and generous alumni
group." Their generosity is
shown through the $150,000
they have donated to refurbish
Miller Hall.
Renovations will include
completely new roof, central
heating and air conditioning,
changing practice rooms and
music studios into spacious of-
fices and classrooms,
redecorated restrooms, and
new lighting. A baptistry will be
installed in the chapel.
Miller Hall was dedicated
February 10, 1954, to Howard
A. Miller, SJC music teacher
for 15 years. Professor Miller is
known for his songs in the
Church Hymnal and Gospel
Melodies.
The dedication for Sojuco-
nian Hall is part of Alumni
Homecoming's Founder's Day
program, Friday, November 2.
A tree, brought from the old
Graysville campus, will be
planted as part of the dedica-
tion. A fountain is scheduled to
be built out of stones brought
from Graysville. The chapel
will be dedicated to Robert H.
Pierson, General Conference
President from 1966 to 1979
and graduate of SJC,
Music in the Mountains Series
in Colorado. The Quartet is in
residence as artist-faculty at the
Blair School of Music at
Vanderbilt University in
Nashville, Tennessee.
Characterized by the
Washington Post as exhibiting
"exquisite balance, perfect in-
tonation, and exemplary musi-
cianship," the Quartet plans to
play works by Haydn, Bartok,
and Debussy. Not limiting their
repertoire to classics from past
eras, the group has also
premiered new works by several
composers, including Frank
Proto and Samuel Rhodes.
Their albums are available on
Redmark, Orpheus, Varese-
Sarabande, and Grenadilla
labels.
Away From Campus. . .
Duarte and Rebels Talk
El Salvador president, Jose Napoleon Duarte, sat down with
rebel leaders on Monday to talk about ending the war in that coun-
try. Each side gave its proposals and demands for peace and then \^B
agreed to meet again in November. The meetng was a historic
first after five years of bloodshed, in which 59,000 people have
been killed.
Possible Solar System Found
Scientists, convinced that they have found a new solar system,
released a photograph Monday of what may be a young system
293 trillion miles away from Earth. The photograph shows a
swarm of particles surrounding the star Beta Pictoris. Two faint
streaks of light surround the star and extend 40 billion miles. Ac-
cording to the scientists, the particles most likely are made up of
ices, sillicats, and organic compounds.
Nobel Prizes Awarded
Two of the Nobel Prizes have been awarded so far: literature
and medicine. Last week Czechaslovakian poet Jaroslar Seifert
was awareded the Nobel Prize in literature. Earlier this week, three
medical researchers won the coveted award in medicine. Niels Kaj
Jeme, a Dane; Georges Koehler, a West German; and Cesar Mils-
tein, an Argentine, shared the prize for their pioneering work in
immunology. The three deciphered how the body's defenses
against disease work and how to manipulate them to fight disease.
Their discoveries are now being used in research in immunology.
Supreme Court Decides Religion Question
Adding to its already full agenda, the Supreme Court said Mon-
day that it will decide whether a community may be forced to pro-
vide public land for the annual display of a Christmas Nativity
scene. The court will use a Scarsdale, N.Y., case to determine
whether prohibiting displays of Christ's birth from public pro-
perty on which other displays are allowed is a violation of free-
speech rights. The community had permitted the display until local
Jews began to protest, prompting area Christians to sue. The
Supreme Court probably will not decide the case until sometime
in 1985.
Panel ask Amtrak to Study Route
A legislative commmittee agreed Monday to join U.S. Rep.
Albert Gore, Jr., in asking Amtrak to study the costs of return-
ing rail passenger service to Middle and East Tennessee. The pro-
posed route would stop in Nashville, Chattanooga, and Atlanta.
The argument against the route is that the line would mot pay
for itself, thus needing state subsidy.

Men's Club Sponsors Cruise
Cindy Watson
Whether out of curiosity or
anticipation, your're probably
wondering what the men's club
n store in sponsoring the
Autumn boat cruise. The even-
ing begins 7:30 Monday night
at Ross Landing where the
boat, Mark Twain, will be
waiting. The 3 to 4 hour cruise
consists of going up and down
the Tennessee River.
Donuts, hot chocolate, bur-
ritoes and other Mexican food
will be served buffet style. Mr.
Earl Evans, Director of Food
Services at Southern, and the
cafeteria staff will be catering
;he meal.
After the meal, the excite-
ment will be watching the boat
go through the locks, the city
lights, and... Of course, as
Dean Christman puts it, "this
is official PDA night-the one
occasion at Southern where
DA is allowed and
couraged."
As for those going as just
;ausal dates, have no fear,
"ausal is what the evenings all
about. Even blue jeans are ac-
ceptable. It's a Mississippi style
boat ride, but not like in the an-
tibellum days where everybody
dresses up. "It's too cold to be
dressed up," says Christman.
Live entertainment will con-
clude the evening. Although
plans had not been finalized
Tuseday as to who the enter-
tainer would be, Christman
said the style would be popular
romantic music and would last
around an hour.
The thirty dollar per-couple
tickets were on sale October 15
& 16. This is 10 dollars more
than last year. "The company
we've rented from in the past
went bankrupt" explains
Christman. "It's costing us
twice as much for the same
length of ride." As of Monday
night, 50 percent of the tickets
were sold and 20 percent were
bought by girls. The cost of the
ticket includes transportation.
Unlike last year, this will be a
one night event.
"It's one of the highlights of
the school year because the ex-
perience is so unique-a time
when people can let their hair
down and enjoy themselves,"
says Christman.
Adventists Send 1,101
Missionaries
Washington (Oct. 10)-The
Seventh-day Adventist Church
;ent out 1,101 missionaries in
.983, according to G. Ralph
Thompson, secretary of the
General Conference of
Jeventh-day Adventists in his
eport to the denomination's
1984 Annual Council.
Of the 655 departures for
:egular mission service, 286
were new missionaries and 369
were those returning to
■assignments after furlough. An
Additional 446 volunteer
■workers brought the total to
1,101, Thompson said.
The 655 regular missionaries
Jasically are church workers
who go from their home coun-
ry to another country, Thomp-
ion explained. Of that number
411 missionaries (62.7 percent)
went from the United States
and Canada to other parts of
he world. Other missionaries
were sent from the Far East,
Africa, Australia and the South
Pacific, Europe, Central and
South America, and the Middle
Bast.
Calls for missionaries con-
tinue to come," Thompson
added. "As of September 10,
1984, we had a total of 198 calls
or regular missionaries- 54 for
Physicians, 34 for facul-
ty/teachers, 16 for nurses, 14
for departmental, 13 for ad-
ministrative and the remaining
variety of categories in-
cluding other health-related oc-
cupations and publishing."
Thompson said the church
has an additional 149 requests
for volunteer workers in a
variety of categories.
The Seventh-day Adventist
Institute of World Mission at
Andrews University in
Michigan "continues to make
its mark. . .in preparing mission
appointees for 'cross-cultural'
service," Thompson said. "It is
fascinating to see how a group
of mission appointees at each
session arrives as a diverse,
non-oriented set of individuals
and leave a homogeneous
group in just a short time."
The Institute of World Mis-
sion reviews the mission of the
church and the role of mis-
sionaries in the fulfillment of
that mission, acquaints newly
appointed missionaries with the
conditions and problems they
will meet in the field, prepares
them to relate to diverse pro-
blems in a tactful and Christian
manner, discusses current issues
in missions and explains the
policies and procedures under
which missionaries work.
In a brief report on member-
ship, Thompson said that in the
year ending June 30, 1984, the
church had a net increase of
255,517 to a world total of
4,261,116.

Broomshop Gets New Home
The Nerds Are Back!
Fall Festival in Full Swing
Ron Aguilera
A decision was recently made
o build a new broomshop
building at the mobile home
park near the Student Park.
This decision was passed in the
September Southern College
Board Meeting, and the con-
struction will probably begin in
the spring.
The building which now
holds the Supreme Broom
Company is under lease from
McKee Bakery. This lease runs
out in a year and a half, and
McKee Bakery will be moving
into the building then. This ac-
tion presents the need for a new
home for the Supreme Broom
Company.
Southern College owns ten
;cres of land which is now be-
ing used as the mobile home
park. Recently, there has been
i decline in the popularity of
living in trailers, leaving many
open spaces at the mobile home
park. The college, therefore,
plans to change a section into
1 industrial area, constructing
building to house the
Supreme Broom Company.
Once completely moved into
the new building, the Supreme
Broom Company will have 20
percent more space than it cur-
rently has. The added space is
important because it should in-
crease the income potential of
the broom shop.
An interesting note is that by
the time the new broom shop
begins functioning, the college
will have spent around half a
million dollars on its construc-
tion. This amount will be paid
by the Supreme Broom Com-
pany, however, and not student
tuition.
The college's involvement in
the company's move is pro-
mpted by the fact that Southern
College owns it. In April of this
year, the Supreme Broom
Company was purchased by
SC. This move was done main-
ly to provide students with
another source of employment.
The college is very pleased right
now to have over 50 students
employed there and hope to in-
crease the number as well as the
student income after the com-
pletion of the new building.
The history of the broom
shop is an interesting one. A
certain Mr. Schroeder from
Kentucky wanted his son, Bill,
to have a Christian education.
But money was scarce and the
work that Bill did best was not
one of the industries at the col-
lege. So Bill came to college
with some old type broom
presses, winders, and chop-
pers-all operated by hand-
along with a wagon full of
broom corn. His father had
told him that if he made enough
brooms to pay his expenses, the
college would help him sell
them. Bill probably never
realized that he would start one
of the college's most productive
industries. The first broom
shop was started in 1924 and
has become not only one of the
oldest industries on campus but
also one of the most profitable.

Throughout the years one of
the biggest events on campus
has been the Fall Festival, and
the one planned for this year
will rival those in year's past.
Already we've seen the scruffy
look with T-shirts, sweats,
scrubs, and torn blue jeans. For
most people it was a real "com-
fortable" day. Now we are in
CABL Week Leaves Students "Healthier and Wiser"
Norman Hobbs
CABL Week was a great suc-
cess. Collegiate Adventists for
Better Living (CABL) is a pro-
gram which emphasizes good
health and is sponsored by
Campus Ministry. Assistant
Chaplain Dale Tunnell was
happy with the results: "I
believe that we have achieved
our goal because people are
talking about health." Many
students feel "more aware than
ever" about their health and are
thankful for a week to become
more conscientious about bet-
ter living. Troy Rockwell says
that CABL Week was great: "I
never knew it existed until this
year." CABL director Don
Welch felt that the week was an
awesome success and hopes
that everyone benefited from
the programs."
During the entire week,
CABL Week began on Monday
the 15th with a dental booth in
the cafeteria. On Tuesday, in-
formation about eye and body
donation could be obtained
from a booth in the Student
Center. Also, a special movie
on running was shown during
Tuesday's chapel. Starting on
Tuesday and continuing
through Friday, Wildwood
Sanitarium and Hospital shared
information, took blood
pressures, and gave health age
and longevity appraisals in the
Student Center. The health age
appraisal stated one's health
age based on current health
habits and his achievable age if
he adopted stated health recom-
mendations. The longevity ap-
praisal expressed one's expected
remaining years of life based on
present health habits and his
life if he followed the suggested
health recommendations.
Health recommendations in-
cluded such things as eating
regular meals, avoiding snack-
ing, losing or gaining weight,
getting plenty of rest, and get-
ting lots of exercise. Wildwood
gave appraisals to nearly 600
people.
On Wednesday, skin fold fat
tests and blood pressures were
taken in the cafeteria. That
evening Dave Silas, medical
director at Mountainview
Hospital, spoke at Wednesday
night's prayer meeting.
On Thursday, a group from
Metropolitan Hospital checked
107 people for diabetes, and the
eyes and ears van, which check-
ed persons' hearing, reported
around 100 hearing tests.
CABL Week's last feature was
the process of experiencing
"REVENGE OF THE
NERDS." If an unsuspecting
visitor happened to wander on
campus, he would probably
beat a hasty retreat away from
a studious look of briefcases,
polyester, mix-matched clashes,
crazy outfits, and a chronic
habit of nose picking. If we
could persuade this visitor to
stay until evening, he would be
greatly relieved to find a bit
more "normal" look of
western duds, hats, boots, and
flannel shirts-Hee Haw style.
A picnic at 5:30 p.m. between
Hackman Hall and the Student
Center will complete the coun-
try atmosphere with
chuckwagon grub and some
knee-slapping, banjo-picking,
country-western music.
There will be a quick shift
from rural to urban by Friday
morning, though. The at-
mosphere will definitely be
sophisticated when those in
high society make their debut
appearance, dressed in
elegance-from tuxedos and
formals to super preppy to the
"night out on the town look."
In keeping with all this class,
there will be a croissant break
at 10:00 a.m. and a secret sur-
prise around noon. Don't
forget to get your ' 'look"
recorded forever during the pic-
ture session on the steps of
Lynn Wood Hall at 12:30
everyday.
The best part of the week will
be Sunday night. At Fillman's
Continued on page 2
speaker Dr. Richard Ruhling,
private physician and health
lecturer from Chattanooga. Dr.
Ruhling talked about "Being
Where the Action Is." The
steps he suggested were to
guard our heritage by honoring
God in all we do and by form-
ing good habits, to gird our
minds by aiming high and by
feeding our minds only pure
things, and to go for a "gold"
character. Thus, the key to suc-
cess is to aim high because we
become what we think. Dr.
Ruhling shared facts that pro-
ved that if we follow the health
suggestions of Ellen G. White,
we will be where the action is.
Thanks to CABL Week our
campus has learned helpful
hints that we can now practice
as Collegiate Adventists for
Better Living.

Thank You
J
Joint I want to bring out is that the "thank you has been weU
received. Perhaps, there are other people around you who also
gladly would welcome a word of praise.
A college campus setting almost forces individuals to interact.
This mingling takes place in many forms: employer ^employee
working togetter, roommates living with each <***££*
dying with a tutor, and friends eating at the same ta We. Jhe : Utt
goes on and on. Yet one wonders what a simple thank you
or compliment would do for one of these people if the words were
expressed. 1 would venture to say that the person who recedes
'he compliment or thank you would feel like our staff does each
time it receives a compliment-uplifted.
Very few people can live a normal life without being recogmzeo.
In fact, to be recognized is a human need. If one were to think
about how he felt after being complimented in the past, he would
see that there is a need for commendation, especially on a college
campus. For example, it is easier for an individual to work for
an employer if he knows that his work will be acknowledged. An
employer who never thanks his workers for their work, most likely
has a staff of disgruntled individuals. In contrast, an employer
who notices his staff's good work and lets them know about it,
most likely will have a happy staff (not considering all aspects
of job satisfaction, of course). In fact, the compliment will buoy
the individuals to try and accomplish greater feats.
The need for commendations and "thank you's" on this cam-
pus is even higher. As fellow Christians trying to live proper lives,
knowing that we are being recognized encourages us to continue
living and working on a higher level of achievement. Given the
difficulty of living a Christian life (and of going to college) the
act of complimenting should be encouraged. Commending so-
meone is free, and the words can only help and not hinder.

A proposed road from Col-
legedale north to the interstate
is still in the planning stages,
says Collegedale City Manager
Lee Holland. "The only thing
that has been done about this
road is that Hamilton County
has had a engineering study
done surveying possible
routes." The new road would
give Collegedale better access to
1-75 than the Ooltewah-
Ringgold Road route, but cur-
rently the new route is not even
"remotely finalized," said
Holland.
The road is needed because
of the large amount of truck
traffic from McKee Bakery and
other sWppers. The trucks are
not able to use Ooltewah-
Ringgold Road because its 10VI
underpass and small wy,),
make it unsuitable for heavy
trucks. Collegedale Mayor
Wayne VandeVere said that
some of the push for a better '
road came last spring after
several accidents on Apisoj
Pike. The road would also
benefit the planned industrial
park in Ooltewah, he said.
If the road is built, the agen-
cy in charge will be Hamilton
County. The money will come
from wherever funds can be oh-
tained. Federal grants v,
definitely be sought, howevu.
State, county, and local revenue
will finance the remainder of
the cost.

the amount of the increase.
According to the American
Federation of Teachers, a
500,000-member union, last
year's earnings increased 8.5
percent to an average $20,547.
In terms of buying power,
however, that's 10.6 percent
smaller than 10 years ago.
Another survey of 2,100 full-
time faculty members by John
Minter Associates, a research
firm in Boulder, Colo.,
reported a 7.6 percent increase
average $28,040 salary
The surveys agree, however,
that the increase means salaries
increased more than inflation
for the second straight year.
The AFT figures show the
highest average salaries in
($32,297) and the lowest in
Mississippi ($14,320).
Projections by the U. S.
Bureau, of Labor Statistics in-
dicate less demand through
1995 for college and high
school teachers, more for
vocational-educational teachers
and more for pre-education ,
kindergarten and elementary-
school teachers.

Reflections
The Idea of an Education
Jan Haiuska
College, like love, is
sometimes better the second
time around. At least that's
how it was for me as a student.
During my first try I was chief-
ly interested in easy classes and
cool friends (this was 1959),
and a C- was just dandy, thank
you. Maybe that had something
to do with how the experience
ended.
I remember my last talk with
the academic dean as he gently
explained that, having averaged
just below a two-point for a
couple of semesters, I was
welcome to try elsewhere. That
conversation was my door to
adulthood. The army and a few
years in the business world
completed the transition. Then,
just as I had become used to the
idea that I would never go
beyond a rudimentary educa-
tion, Christ intervened, and I
found myself back at college.
But what a difference there
was this time. A walk around
Pacific Union College the day
before registration was like
Moses' sight of the burning
bush. Although I had spent the
last several years in San Fran-
cisco's financial district, the
buildings on that campus look-
ed far more impressive than any
I had seen in a long time. They
were full of people whose lives
were dedicated-the wonder of
it-to giving out information to
make others more successful. I
visualized members of the
physics or business departments
trading away high-paying jobs
for privilege and burden of
teaching. (It's true enough. My
friend Richard Ericson has
done that here this semester.)
Then I saw that civilization
rests on a far different base
than is generally supposed. Not
the wheel. Oh no. At the center
of the civilized world stands a
school. The ancient Mayans
maintained a high culture
without any wheels at all.
Schools, they had.
But even the second time
around did not show me all of
it at once. That first day I ac-
tually missed two thirds of the
picture.
Only later did I begin to
notice the vast difference be-
tween training, important as it
is, and what is called "liberal
education." That difference is
easier to illustrate than to
define. Consider: according to
a recent study, people with ex-
clusively technical backgrounds
often blossom early in com-
panies like IBM, AT & T and
Transamerica, picking up quick
promotions ahead of their
liberally-educated colleagues
who have spent significant time
studying people-related sub-
jects, especially history,
literature, languages, etc. But
then a strange thing happens.
The purely technical people
tend to stop cold just below
middle-management level,
while their humanities-oriented
peers slide by into the big
salaries near the top of the
pyramid.
How can that be? The
answer is that anyone who
wants to produce results
through people had better
understand his co-workers'
nontechnical side. The
humanities are still the best
general education for that
understanding. Liberally-
educated students have a bright
window into the collective right
brain of mankind, giving them
a clear advantage over anyone
with an exclusively left-brain
orientation. For that reason,
higher education historically
has tried to produce leaders by
focusing hard on the
humanities. Although technical
and scientifdic coursework is
essential to a good preparation
for most fields today, potential
leaders in all areas still need a
liberal arts education.
The third ingredient of a real
education was honored for
2,500 years before this century.
Now though, it is mostly left
out. From the schools of the
prophets to those of Aristotle
and Plato, the great scholarly
tradition has emphasized
spiritual things. Graduates of
Oxford and Cambridge (not to
mention those of Harvard)
were fitted for the ministry if
they chose to enter it. Long,
hard experience has shown that
faith is the best way to bind the
two halves of the brain
together. Ignoring this more
recently, the great universities
of the world have tried to de-
emphasize the spiritual and still
produce leaders of mental and
moral integrity. How well this
kind of education has suc-
ceeded is easy to judge; anyone
can snap on his T.V. at random
for a loud and clear answer.
Just now these secular univer-
sities are agonizing over how to
teach "values," having exclud-
ed their best answer already. It
has been a bad experiment.
I am thrilled to find so many
students on this campus who
are smarter than I was the first
time around. They know that
college must not be simply a
social adventure with a little
learning thrown in. But I
wonder whether they under-
stand clearly that higher educa-
tion cannot just provide train-
ing. Do they recognize that any
educated person needs a strong
background in the liberal arts
along with any purely technical
or scientific preparation? Do
they see that the payoff is not
simply in being a "well-
rounded person," but in serious
anticipation of leadership? Do
they realize as well that this
preparation is incomplete
without the spiritual
dimension?
We here at Southern should
not feel at all shy in the
presence of huge and well-
funded state institutions around
us. By God's grace we offer
education in the rare, true sense
of the term, and under His mer-
cy we shall continue to do so.
Annual Sickness
Student Missions Club
Sponsors Food Fair
C. D. N. S.
A recent report stated that in
1980 Americans experienced
19.1 average days of restricted
activity, which refers to those
days spent in bed or otherwise
missing from work because of
health reasons.
The 19.1 average is one day
more than in 1975--3.1 more
than 1971. Based on 1980
statistics, the report reflected
interviews 103,000 people in
39,000 households (sic).
Money seems to make a dif-
ference, as families with in-
comes of $25,000 or more had
the lowest rates of restricted ac-
tivity, and those with income of
under $5,000 had the highest
rates of disability. That's an
average of five days yearly of
missed work.
Blacks, with higher restricted
activity rates , missed fewer
school days than whites~4.1
to5.4.
Surprisingly, people living on
the sunny West Coast had three
more days of restricted activity
than the national average.
Michael J. Bait is tone
Are you hungry? Looking
for something to break the
routine of cafeteria fare or the
"burger and fries" approach?
If it is something exotic that ap-
peals to you, then there is a
good chance that the Student
Mission Club's International
Food Fair will be to your taste.
For three years, the Food
Fair has been an important
aspect of both the public rela-
tions effort and iTmd-raising
campaign of the Student Mis-
sions Club. The Fair features
the traditional cuisine of
foreign cultures, and most of
the nations which have hosted
student missionaries will be
represented in this year's event.
Some of the all-time favorite
booths include Japan, Korea,
Mexico, India, and the South
Pacific Islands. In addition to
these and other booths from
last year, two new cultures will
be introduced: the Ukraine and
Dutch (the Dutch booth will be
serving only drinks and ice
cream).
The money raised by this
endeavor will be placed in the
"Student Missions Donation
Fund," which will help defray
the cost of transportation and
medical procedures for student
missionaries who need financial
assistance. The Club would like
to raise at least $2,000, which
is not an unreasonable goal
considering last year's profit of
$1 ,800 (an increase of over 100'
from the previous year).
The Fair will be open from
12:00 to 6:00 on Sunday, Oc-
tober 28, in the gymnasium of
Spaulding Elementary School.
Arrangements will be made
enabling students to charge
food on their ID cards. So
come out, bring a friend, and
enjoy this celebration of the
world's food while supporting
the Student Mission's efforts.

1984 Democratic National
Convention--The audience
sways as SDA minister, Went-
ly Phipps, sings at the conclu-
sion of another minister's, Jesse
Jackson, speech. ..1984
Republican National
Convention-There is a roar of
applause as Jerry Falwell makes
a short statement and then gives
the benediction. Politics and
religion: much has been said
about them from square one of
this campaign, as if this was the
first time they had mixed in
American history. I strongly
dispute that point and propose
the theory that politics and
religion have always been
mixed in American history (ex-
amine the campaigns of
Presidents Kennedy and Hayes,
and Governor Al Smith of
Wyoming), and what is now be-
ing seen in this election is the
beginning of the public's
realization and acceptance of
that fact. Having stated that
premise, I look at today's
church-state relationship in two
different lights: that of a citizen
and that of an Adventist.
As a citizen, I find this in-
volvement of religious
organizations in politics of no
great concern. The constitution
gives to every group or in-
dividual an equal right to try
and influence the political pro-
cess by expressing their view-
points. This right extends to
Jerry Falwell, Jesse Jackson,
and the Catholic bishops, just
as much as it extends to Lane
Kirkland of the AFL-CIO, Jay
Rockerfeller, and the local
chamber of congress. This
country is a democracy, and
those that can assemble a con-
sensus should be allowed to
govern.
However, as an Adventist
Christian, I see this issue in an
entirely different and disturbing
light. Granted, religious in-
volvement has been present for
a long time, but what concerns
me is the shift of emphasis of
this political involvement. It
has shifted from moral and
political issues, such as prohibi-
tion, abolition, poverty, and
issues of war and peace, to
more overtly religious issues,
such as abortion and prayer in
schools. These issues are enter-
ing directly into the gray area
between church and state, and
it is in this area that religious in-
toleration and persecution
begin. This emphasis, and not
the fact that religious organiza-
tions are involved in the
political process, is the real item
of concern. Unfortunately, it is
probably here to stay, and thus
we should learn to deal with it.
In conclusion, the real
discussion of the issue of
religious involvement in
politic's should be concerned
not with the actual involve-
ment, but with the direction this
involvement is leading
America. It is our duty both as
Christians and citizens to
evaluate the situation for what
it is, and then to deal with it
effectively.

A Guide to Academic Ad-
visement, a 150-page book giv-
ing suggested year-by-year
schedules and career informa-
tion for each of the majors of-
fered at SC, has been publish-
ed by the SC Records Office,
just in time for the advisement
period for second semester,
which begins October 29.
"Choosing a career and fin-
ding a job after graduation will
be easiest for those students
who have a clearheaded view of
opportunitites and problems
ahead of them," according to
Mary Eiam, Director of
Reocrds. That is why she has
compiled this information from
the SC division chairmen and
other authoritative sources such
as the Occupational Outlook
Handbook and the College
Placement Council's Salary
Survey.
Career information listed for
each major includes such items
as job availability (including
denominational opportunities),
salary possibilities, and sources
of additional information.
General education re-
quirements at SC are outlined
in the first section of the book.
This portion of the guide also
includes detailed information
on the placement of the 1984
graduates, contributed by
Evonne Crook of the Testing
and Counseling Office.
Included are such tidbits of
information as the fact that the
Bureau of Labor Statistics
reports that a college graduate
is three times less likely to be
unemployed as a high school
graduate. According to the
U.S. Census Bureau, people
who complete four years of col-
lege can expect lifetime earnings
averaging nearly 40 percent
higher than high school
graduates.
Elam cautioned, however,
that students should not select
a career solely because it is
presently in vogue or leads to
high earnings. They should
follow their own bent by selec-
ting a profession or vocation
that is compatible with their in-
terests and talents. Even the
most glutted fields will need
replacements for those* who
retire.
According to the October 10,
1984, issue of The Chronicle of
Higher Education, more
students are seeking help from
their colleges in planning their
careers, but resources have not
kept pace with the increased de-
mand. It is the aim of Dr.
William Allen, Academic Vice-
President, to use the resources
available at SC in the best
possible way to improve the
quality of academic advise-
ment. He foresees that The
Guide to Academic Advisement
will become a yearly publica-
tion and is pleased to announce
that Dr. Carole Haynes, Direc-
tor of the Teaching/Learning
Center, has been appointed to
take an increasingly active role
in coordinating advisement.
The amount of career infor-
mation that can be given in this
handbook is necessarily limited.
It is designed to aid students in
the selection of a major and of
the courses needed to complete
a major, but does not take the
place of the official college
catalog.
As they outline their personal
year-by-year schedules,
students should study this guide
and the SC catalog carefully
and stay in close touch with
their advisers. They can find
more in-depth information on
their chosen careers at the SC
Testing and Counseling Center,
the McKee Library, and by
writing to the sources of infor-
mation listed in the handbook.
Copies of A Guide to
Academic Advisement have
been given to each academic ad-
viser, are available for perusal
at the dormitories, and are on
reserve at the McKee Library.
For the next two weeks,
October 21 - November 9*
Southern College will have its
advisement period for Spring
Semester. The time is set aside
so that students can meet with
their faculty advisers and plan
their schedules for the second
half of the school year.
This pre-registration will cut
down on the amount of time it
will take to register on January
7 (Registration Day). It also
gives the records office an op-
portunity to see what classes are
the most popular and at what
times. Thus if any conflicts
arise, they may be able to cor-
rect them before second
semester begins.
The process begins with the
student looking over the new
class schedule and getting an
idea as to what classes are of-
fered and when they are of-
fered. Then after making an ap-
pointment with his adviser, the
two discuss a probable schedule
and place it on a form that the
adviser gives to the student.
After this is completed, the
student takes the schedule to
the Reocrds Office in Wright
Hall. The form is stamped with
a number, and this number is
what determines a student's
time of registration. For this
reason, Miss Elam, Director of
Records, advises that it is to the
student's advantage to see his
adviser as soon as possible.
Students who wish to change
their program after having
completed the pre-registration
steps, may do so until
November 15. After this date,
he will have to wait till the ac-
tual registration period.
The fact that pre-registration
is upon us so quickly shows
how fast time can fly, so
students are encouraged not to
delay their advisement sessions.

Adventists to Vote on Ordination of Women
The Seventh-day Adventist
Church will vote on whether to
ordain women to the gospel
ministry at its General Con-
ference Session in New Orleans,
June 27-July 6, 1985.
The church's 1984 Annual
Council yesterday responded to
i request of the church's Col-
umbia Union Conference (area
headquarters for the mid-
Atlantic states) and the
Potomac Conference (local
headquarters for Virginia, the
District of Columbia, and parts
of Maryland) that it act to per-
mit women serving as associates
in pastoral care and who serve
s local church elders to bap-
that church policy be
amended to permit granting of
ministerial licenses to women
and that the church consider
| the ordination of qualified
women to the gospel ministry.
The Annual council asked
the Potomac Conference "to
keep tabled the issues of
ministerial licenses for women
and baptism by women. . .un-
til the larger issue of women in
the gospel ministry is decided
by the Church" at its 1985
General Conference Session.
Such sessions meet every five
years and are the ultimate
authority on church doctrine
and working policies.
The Annual Council noted
"that the issues raised by the
Potomac Conference and Col-
umbia Union cannot be resolv-
ed without deciding the central
women being eligible
for ordination to the gospel
ministry."
The council voted a three-
part program leading to the
1985 consideration of ordina-
tion of women:
1. Each of the world divi-
sions of the church is "asked to
discuss the issues in preparation
for a meeting of representatives
from the world divisions" who
will meet for four or five days
beginning March 26, 1985.
2. Representatives will in-
clude at least two represen-
tatives from each of the world
divisions of the church.
3. The report of the March
meeting will be presented to the
1985 Spring Meeting (April 3
and 4, 1985) for recommenda-
tions to the 1985 General Con-
ference Session.
In addition the church's
Biblical Research Institute will
send to all delegates to the
General Conference Session "a
balanced summary of the
available theological positions
in connection with this
subject."
The Annual Council action
stated that the "decision of the
1985 General Conference Ses-
sion will be definitive and
should be accepted as such by
the Church worldwide."
General Conference Presi-
dent Neal C. Wilson reviewed
recent history concerning the
pastoral roles of Adventist
women.
"It is clear scripture teaches
equality of men and women,"
Wilson explained. "But we
must face the question of
whether that equality is one of
both status and function." He
pointed out that various church
studies and actions of the last
decade have urged continued
study of the role of women in
the church and have recogniz-
ed the role of women in
pastoral-evangelistic work with
ministerial status.
"The implication of what we
have done over the last ten
years is that a time might come
to ordain women to the gospel
ministry but that the church
above all desires unity."
C. E. Bradford, president of
the church's North American
Division, pointed out that the
General Conference has en-
couraged conferences to
employ women in ministry.
"They have the same educa-
tional preparation as men.
Several conferences have ac-
cepted them in pastoral roles.
They have been taking their
places with their male
classmates on pastoral staffs."
Bradford urged the world
leaders of the church to have
sympathy and understanding.
"North America has its chal-
lenges to face. If we are a world
church, the entire church
should be concerned with our
problems."
President Wallace O. Coe of
the Columbia Union Con-
ference asked the world
representatives to "look at all
sides of the issues and ask the
Lord to lead us to the correct
conclusion."
President Ron M. Wisbey of
the Potomac Conference said a
survey revealed 94/of the con-
ference's ministers supported
their fellow women pastors. He
said the question is a matter of
conscience for the conference's
executive committee. "Our
women pastors feel their call to
ministry just as deeply as every
member of the clergy sitting
here today," he said.
Former General Conference
President Robert H. Pierson
appealed for study of the Bible
and of the Spirit of Prophecy
(writings of church founder
Ellen G. white), "not of what
other churches are doing, not
what radical liberals propose,
not what proponents of the
status quo urge. We must find
the solution on our knees, and
then move ahead as a united
church."
The council earlier voted to
reaffirm a 1975 Spring Meeting
action on the "Role of Women
in the Church" and establish-
ed guidelines for the selection
and ordination of women as
local-church elders.

Now that the magic of the
Detroit Tigers' season has worn
off, it's time for the bruisers,
the dancers, and the leapers.
Kirk Gibson, eat your heart
out.
Although the NFL's regular
season is half over, this week
starts the beginning of the real
regular season. There is not a
team in first place with more
than a two game lead, but with
eight weeks to go, that's not a
bad position to be in.
Which team is the strongest?
That is debatable. If we go by
records, the Miami Dolphins
are considered the best. Some
dare to compare these Dolphins
with the Dolphins of 1974 (bet-
ter known as the year as the
year of Richard Nixon). Yet
still there are other teams which
can be considered tops in the
league.
The San Francisco 49ers
boast a 7-1 record. The 49ers
don't have a squad that is
bursting with superstars, but
they get the job done. Led by
QB Joe Montana, the 49ers are
the team to beat in the NFC
West.
The Washington Redskins
and the St. Louis Cardinals, yes
the Cardinals, are tied for the
top spot in the NFC East. It's
easy to predict that the 'Skins
will come out on top based sole-
ly on the past two years, but the
Cards are a pretty potent
group. It'll be interesting down
the stretch. And although many
would like to, let's not forget
the Cowboys.
In the NFC Central, the
Chicago Bears, behind Jim
McMahon and Walter Payton,
are sitting on top of their divi-
sion at the midway point this
season. Upcoming is a date
with the World Champion Los
Angeles Raiders, though. That
match will surely put the young
Bears up to the test of being a
contending team. The Min-
nesota Vikings and the Green
Commentary
Bay Packers, previously con-
sidered to be the stronger teams
in the Central Division, both
are fairing poorly so far.
In football's best division,
the AFC West, Los Angeles
and the Denver Broncos are
locked in a 7-1 tie for first
place. The only loss the Raiders
have this season came at the
hands of the Broncos. Think
the black and silver want
revenge? The only loss that the
Broncos suffered came in a
blowout at Chicago. The Bron-
cos haven't been able to beat
Chicago in four years, though.
The Seattle Seahawks are an
awesome bunch themselves.
Seattle would really be in the
thick of things if they hadn't
lost Curt Warner to injury ear-
ly in the season. Franco Harris*
past record won't be enough to
help theis team. The Seahawks
need him this year; unfor-
tunately, he can only run out-
of-bounds now.
The San Diego Chargers still
have a great offensive attack
despite losing Kellen Winslow
to injury and Chuck Muncie to
the di up ward. QB Dan Fouts
is the anchor for this team, but
as long as the Chargers score 40
points and give up 44, they'll
still lose. The Chargers have ab-
solutely no defense.. .absolute-
ly none. (The Kansas City
Chiefs with Todd Blackledge
are a team of the future and
thus don't fit in this article.)
The AFC Central is a joke.
Pittsburgh, Cincinnati,
Cleveland, and Houston are
football's version of baseball's
American League West divi-
sion. Neither of these teams
should go to the playoffs but
one will. Stupid? You bet.
I'm sure everyone that is
reading this article will not
totally agree with me, but one
thing is for certain. Football
does not get interesting until
after week number 10. I don't
care how many times you like
NOTSO

to see Washington beat Dallas;
who cares until after week
number 10? Chances are Miami
will remain unbeaten, but who
cares until after week number
10? A 10-0 record is much im-
pressive than an 8-0 record any
day.
Now that the Fall Classic is
done away with, the Fall Guys
are in full swing until the Super
Bowl. The best teams will make
it, and the best individuals will
wind up watching it. It always
happens that way. So take off
that Tiger cap and join the par-

JOKER
84-85
They're Here!
At the last Student Associa-
tion Joker editor, Reg Rice,
promised that within a week the
Joker would be in the students'
hands. True to his word they
were delivered on October 23,
1984. Most students found the
Joker on their dormitory room
beds.
The holdup was caused by
printing delays at the press, late
pictures from the Orlando
Campus and various other
complications.
The Joker has more informa-
tion listed in it this year, but
aside from the greater quantity
of information the quality has
been questioned. A notable
grainy effect appears on the
pictures which detracts from
the overall look.
The candidates for Joker
editor almost always promise a
speedy publication. After a late
production this year, next years
candidates are sure to do the

Monday morning, I was pass-
ed by students wearing
everything from plastic
trashbags to full length tren-
chcoats. Umbrellas, however,
are the predominant species.
Umbrellas are available at
the Campus Shop in three
styles. These styles include a
collapsible and non-collapsible
variety-both of which are

error of my ways, I returned to

students had made the same
mistake and were carefully

a second bath.
For those of you who find
rain a nuisance, I would like to
point out the following. Did
you know that walking in the
rain at SC can be a new social
experience? Yes, some roman-
ces have been started-believe it

(obviously not a Talge Hall
resident), offering a damsel in
distress a space beneath his
canopy. Believe me, it happens.

course, the term puddle is a
relative one. I think "lake"
would best describe the amount
of water that collects at the bot-

Wright Hall and Talge Hall.

Candidates Debate
President Reagan and Walter Mori dale pounded each other in
the second presidential debate Sunday, October 21. Mondale
stated that President Reagan is an out-of-touch leader whose
foreign policy has "humiliated" the United States. He also said,
"I will keep us strong," and as a result of the president's policies
in Central America, "We have been humiliated and our opponents
are stronger." Reagan reported in the debate that Mondale has
a "record of weakness. ..that is second to none" on national
defence and jabbed back at Mondale with the following statement:
"It may come to Mr. Mondale's surprise, but I am in charge."
No claim of victory was made after the campaign by either
challenger, but Vice President George Bush stated, "I think we
just wrapped up four more years."
Soviet Arms Control Shift
Secretary of State George P. Shultz said Sunday that the new
position of intermediate-range missiles in Europe may be unac-
ceptable. A Soviet official was quoted Friday as suggesting that
Moscow might no longer insist that the United States withdraw
all of the new cruise and Pershing 2 missiles it has deployed in
Britain, Italy, and West German since last December. Shultz said
that the official may have been suggesting " a little different
stance," and a moratorium on deployment of American missiles
may be sufficient to get arms talks under way again.
Heavy Storms Ravage Mississippi Valley
Heavy thunderstorms erupted Sunday over the lower Mississippi
Valley, causing tornados and dumping rain on parts of Texas and
Louisiana that had been hit by storms the day before. Tornados
touched down Sunday and other possible twisters were detected
on radar, said the National Weather Service.
Planes Crash
Investigators looked through the wreckage of two small planes
that crashed this weekend in Cheyenne, Wyoming. One official
said that one factor for the accidents may have been the
snowstorms that have ravaged the area the last week. A twin-
engine Cessna crashed into a North Cheyenne home Saturday,
killing a 2-year-old boy inside the house and injuring the four peo-
ple aboard the aircraft. One passenger told a police officer that
the wings had iced up.

NOTES:
1 Students with more than three exams in one day may seek to have an exam rescheduled.
See'the academic dean if it can't be worked out with the instructors involved.
2 Because the Christmas recess is starting a week earlier than normal to accommodate
those going to the Mexico City Youth Congress, students should not expect special exam ar-
rangements to accommodate holiday travel.

schedule so that students may plan the exam week along with the schedule of classes.

U.S. Senate Hopeful Ashe Visits Southern
Victor Ashe, candidate for

fcctober 30, 1984. His brief, 20

ring through western Ten-
nessee. Ashe appeared very
porn out when he arrived and

S/isit. His tour of the campus
companied by a small
delegation of students with SA
President Shim as the host. One
|of Ashe's aids was overheard
jaying that Victor Ashe had on-

njght before.

iville, fifth generation Tennes-
[sean, Mr. Ashe started his

Ifor Senator Howard Baker. A
iverteran Senate, Victor con-
istently won reelection with 60
[to 70 percent margins. He re-
Icently won the 1984 Republican
iPrimary by an overwhelming 87
Ipercent of the vote. President
Ronald Reagan briefly states,
■"We need Victor Ashe in the
lu.S. Senate." In Washington,
■Victor claims he will work for
a balanced federal budget that
is fair and the continuation of
president Reagan's economic
molicies. More jobs for Ten-
ftessee is a primary concern to
Victor, and he plans to have a
■taff person working full-time
to bring business and industry
to Tennessee.
Victor Ashe's Democratic
opponent, Albert Gore, has
been shown to be currently
ahead in professional polls, but
Ashe doesn't think that these
polls are a correct reflection of
the public opinion. Ashe claims
to have won a number of polls
taken in high schools and even
on the elementary school level
and claims that this is a good
indicator of what the parents at
home are thinking. This com-
ing Tuesday Victor Ashe will
have a chance to prove his logic
correct.
While visiting at Southern,
Ashe was posed a number of
questions. One of the questions
raised was on Ashe's stand on
higher education to which Ashe
replied, "My wife is a second
grade school teacher." Ashe
went on to state that he was for
higher education and felt that
there was a strong role for
private colleges to play in
education and that we should
not take on any governmental
activity that would inhibit that
role.
A number of questions were
directed towards Ashe which
questioned what could be done
to better private schools. One
such question focused on tax
credits for private colleges of
which Ashe thought to be a
justifiable expenditure. He
stated, however, that the

federal deficit had to come
down and that such tax credits
at this time would not be
beneficial in balancing the
budget which Ashe strongly
supports a Contitutional Am-
mendment for.
When voting for a candidate
a voter likes to know who else
supports the candidate. One
such question was asked to
Ashe and he replied "I have the
support of Governor Alexander
and the support of President
Reagan. In fact, if you have
seen my latest television com-
mercials, you'll see that the
President is featured in them."
Ashe responded to a host of
other questions which for the
most part he had ready re-
sponses to. The one question
which he said he had never been
confronted with before was on
President Reagn's appointment
of an ambassador to the
Vatican. Ashe stated that he
would have to look over the
reasons and issues before he
could take a stand on it, but he
did say "I am a firm believer in
separation of Church and
State."
At the end of his stay Ashe
entered his car for another cam-

tion that win or lose he might

Fall Festival Ends With Barn Party

Hooray for Fall Festival-
weekend of opportunity. S.C.
students had the opportunity to
blow off steam and tension
from mid-term exams and show
their spirit and enthusiasm dur-
ing Fall Festival weekend, Oc-
tober 24 through 28. One stu-
dent said this was "a chance to
see who all the fun people are
by the ways that they dress-
up... especially with the im-
agination shown by some of the
costumes worn at the barn par-
ty Sunday night."
This "dress-up" weekend
began on Wednesday with
"Scrub-clothes, factory-togs
and T-shirt with a Message
Day." Thursday consisted of
"Country Western Day" and a
Country Jamboree picnic for
supper. Everyone dressed
elegantly or super-preppy on
Friday and then displayed their
costumes Sunday night at the
barn party.
As a whole, the students en-
joyed this dress-up occasion.
Dale Lacra suggests we include
a hat day and an inside out day,
and Kelly Hosier would like to
see more students and faculty
participating.

When Tragedy Strikes
In the oast two years, this college and its small community have
had a rLh of tragedies. The most recent one happen* M- -*
when Scott Yankelevitz died in an accident, m wh.c , h ™sdo
tag something he loved to do--ska.eboard.ngJ3 «<*££"
DODular students at Southern, Scott's death was mourned oy a
£ge par of the student body. This fact was M*
a several hundred students attended the memorial servtce at the
Collegedale church last Thursday morning.
When tragedy occurs, questions are raised: Why did he have
to die so young? Why did she have to be born mentally retarded?
Wh did he hfve to lose his legs? Why does she have to ,M
rest of her life physically and mentally disfigured from the tire
However, all of these questions evolve from a more basic one.
why does God allow tragedies to occur to good people .
Unfortunately, there is no easy answer. Few are satisfied .with
the answer that God only knows. From that response evolves the
ones with more elaboration: "It was his time to go. uoo. is
trying to tell you something." "This is the way God wants you
toTe-crippled." "God didn't do it, Satan did." Yet, excep for
the last answer, each one of these strikes against what we believe
our God to be-a loving Creator who has our best interests in
mind. And the last answer doesn't allow us to know why He didn t
intervene. Once again, there is no easy answer; neither are there
any that can be used for any one incident.
Last week's tragedy occurred to an individual who was happy-
go-lucky He also learned something from everything he did. I
do not wish to speculate on how Scott would have reacted to a
close friend's death, yet he probably would have learned
something from it, also. The lesson many of us have learned from
last week is that in a world where evil reigns supreme, our only
source of hope and peace is a personal relationship with God.
We do not understand why God allowed Scott to die, but we do
not let this embitter us. For we have this knowledge: God has given
us a way of escape from the pains of evil-Jesus Christ.

IN MEMORY OF SCOTT
I was in a dazed state after I
got off the phone Wednesday
afternoon: one of my best
friends, Scott Yankelevitz died.
To those who never had the op-
portunity to meet him, they
missed one of the rare pleasures
there are to be had. When I
heard the news 1 thought the
right response would be to cry,
but after thinking hard, I said
to myself that Scott would have
said his famous line, "Go with
the flow." At the time the
thought in my head sounded
very cold and morbid, but
pondering it more I reckoned in
my mind that Scott died doing
something he very much en-
joyed. I hold no contempt for
that skateboard, because we
had talked about when we
went-whether it was 'taking a
drive to Trenton,' or talking
about the Redskins,-we figured
that when the time came, we'd
be enjoying something. "Go
with the flow" was our state-
ment to an anxious, and stress
burdened world. Scott was hap-
piest when he was wearing his
shark shorts and shooting
basketball or anything that
could be done outdoors. Our
conversations would get serious
once in a while, and they would
last for only a few minutes and
then the talk would turn to liv-
ing a Bohemian lifestyle on the
beach in California or talk of
hoping the cafeteria would be
serving biscuits and gravy, our
favorite breakfast dish while at
Southern. If nothing were said
between us, it wasn't that
something was wrong, it was
that everything was perfect.
Scott was a great friend, he
would always try to help you
out with money, his car, or just
listening.
I know that eventually I'll
break down and cry, but before
I do this much has to be said.
Cry if you must, I know I will,
but if you can help it at all, and
can hold it back, smile and
think of surfing, basketball,
girls, and the Washington Red-
skins. When you do, you'll be
holding his memory better than
tears could ever express. "Go
with the flow."

SM WRITES HOME
Dear Editor,
Yesterday I received 17 let-
ters, and the first 2 copies of
The Accent (thanks to La Ron-
da Curtis-an excellent SM club
president) were among them.
I am working this year as the
teacher (8 grades) and pastor
for the tiny litle island of
Namu-Namu (no, Mork from
Ork doesn't live here!). I am
the only American here and
have no contact with the rest of
the world other than my short
wave radio receiver and the
mail boat that comes once a
month or so. So, as you might
expect, I was thrilled to receive
all the mail and especially The
Accent.
I certainly agree with your
first editorial: "We're Talkin'
Proud." Our school does have
a lot to be proud of. But you
left out one item on your list of
things to be proud of.. ."We're
talkin' proud of a super perfor-
and an excellent job on
the Southern Accent this year!"
My hat is off to you and your
staff for an excellent beginning!
Keep it up!

pray for me!

WHAT DID YOU LEARN IN SCHOOL TODAY

My father never finished high
school. Due to the economy of
the times and the fact that he
was the only son in a family of
seven sisters, he went to work
for his father and never re-
turned to school. That is not to

then. In fact he was an avid
eader, active in the local
Methodist Debating League,
and because he was a typeset-
ter and proofreader in the
Minting business, could spot a
hisspelled word or a split in-
finitive like a skilled gram-
marian. He therefore took in-
tense interest in the higher
:ducation of each of his
ihildern.
Often, at the supper table, he
would ask me, "What did you
earn in school today?" I had
earned through experience to
ivoid the response "nothing"
s that would incur a look of
profound disbelief and disap-
jointment. "Nothing? You sat
or seven hours in a classroom
nd learned nothing?" In-
variably I found that if I
thought hard enough I could
think of something. "Well, the
mature porcupine has some
30,000 quills on its head, back,
flanks, and tail." or "The plant
life of the oceans makes up
about 85 percent of all the
greenery on this planet." With
this, he would be content that
it least the entire day had not
been wasted and I knew I was
safe until the next time he ask-
id that question.
If seemed that only a few
fears had passed unitl I com-
pleted high school, finished col-
lege, and was back teaching the
Rame school, trying to make
Hiouns and adverbs exciting to
a generation who found them
ps irrelevant as I once did. It
was during that first year that
our superintendant gave me an
update on my father's
philosophy: "You have these
students in your school for
almost a thousand hours each
year. What are you going to
teach them?" I found it signifi-
cant that in most classrooms
teachers ask about 90 percent
of the questions and answer
most of these themselves. I also
noticed that I seemed to learn
more from teaching than I ever
did when I was a student in the
same discipline.
Several years ago David
Berkowitz, the notorious "Son
of Sam" killer, was arrested in
New York City. Prior to his ar-
rest he sent notes to the police
explaining why he had commit-
ted the murders and that he
planned to kill again. In ex-
amining these notes one
psychologist noticed that
Berkowitz knew how to use a
semi-colon correctly, something
that most of the population
cannot do. (A semi-colon joins
two independent clauses that
are not joined by a co-ordinate
conjunction) It amazed me that
at some point he had been a
student in a classroom
somewhere and had learned this
profound piece of information
but somehow had not been im-
pressed with the rights of others
and the golden rule, that some
teacher had drilled home points
of grammar and composition
but had not seen the signs of a
disturbed mind crying out for
help.
It has been said that educa-
tion is what you have left when
you've forgotten everything
you've learned in school. While
this definition may seem con-
tradictory at first, it does con-
tain the sad truth that many of
us retain little of what we learn.
Although we graduate from
college at the end of four (or
more) years and have the
diploma hanging in a promi-
nent place on the wall, when it
comes right down to it, we re-
tain very little of all we have
learned or "crammed" during
our college years.
A well-known cofhic does a
routine which he calls his "five
minute college program." He
begins with the premise that
because we forget most of what
we learn in college we can save
a lot of time and money if we
eliminate those facts that we
will forget anyway and just
learn the very basics of each
course, those facts that we
won't forget. It goes something
like this:
Accounting-Debits go on the
left. Red ink is bad but
black is beautiful.
Economics-Supply and de-
mand. You sell something
for more than you paid
for it—that's called profit
and it's ail that's really
important in economics.
Spanish--Since most people
speak English today or
they know someone who
does, you can save
yourself a lot of time and
study by only speaking to
those people. Two
sentences in Spanish are
all you really need to
know: "Habla Ud. in-
gles?" (Do you speak
English?) If they say
"no" you ask, "Conoce
Ud. a alguien que habla
ingles?" (Do you know
anyone who does?)
Theology-Only two questions
are important:"Where is
God?" (Everywhere) and
"Why is God
everywhere?" (Because
He loves us)
Algebra-You'll never use it so
forget it.
Geometry-Just as important as
Algebra.
While his five minute course
would no doubt anger most
educators (especially those who
disciplines were reduced to a
sentence or less) the sad truth is
that most of us who complete
a college program remember
almost nothing outside of our
major fields. This is not
because it was unimportant,
but because we never took the
time to use what we'd learned
in these "electives."
I personally look back on my
own college program with a lot
of regret. Not because I chose
the wrong field or attended the
wrong college but because I
could have learned so much
more than I did. Like many
students I was so anxious to
finish the program and get on
with life that the four years
seemed to pass like one. There
were courses I should have
taken as electives (astronomy
was one of them) that would
have been so much more
beneficial than some I took
because it gave me an easier
schedule or an easier grade.
However, like most others, I've
found that education doesn't
have to end with graduation; it
just takes greater discipline to
achieve it afterwards.
Incidently, did you know
that a woodchuck breathes on-
ly ten times per hour while
hibernating? An active wood-
chuck breathes 2,100 times an
hour. (Now you can say that
you've learned something new
in school today.)

In Memory of Scott
O
Jeny Russell
"Endless days barefoot on the
beach,
Suntan that never fades,
And that spirit that runs free."
-Scott J. Yankelevitz
Sitting in my room, staring at
the floor laughing then crying,
thinking, remembering the good
and bad of my friend who was
so much a part of my life. I'll
never forget Scott for the con-
tribution that he made in my life
and his optimistic attitude that
greatly inspired every day. He
was warm and sensitive, having
a teasing sense of humor that
always brought me out of the
deepest despair.
I remember that once last year
I had what seemed an insur-
mountable problem that had me
down for several weeks. Every-
day Scott spent hours talking
with me, encouraging and help-
ing me to deal with it. After that
there were many more times that
Scott and I would just sit and talk
because it felt so good to reason
some things out. In all the times
that we talked, I never saw Scott
get angry. He just didn't get riled.
You always could count on Scott
to react the same way: a sly grin,
raised eyebrows, and a little nod
of the head.
Friday afternoons were always
special to us. After classes were
over Scott, Rob, and I would
jump into the 700 LDS with the
top down and cruise over to the
pool to lay out or into town for
the afternoon. We especially en-
joyed these times because it was
the boys' afternoon out. Scott
would be decked out in those
shorts, a T-shirt with a surfing
logo, and his raggedy vans-the
look that just epitomized his life
style.
Scott was kind of a free spirit,
while at the same time organized
enough to be an "A" student. To
say he loved the beach would be
an understatement. Last summer
while at home, I didn't even
bother to try to see Scooter on
weekends because very few of
them went by that he wasn't in
Ocean City. He always said that
it was the "best beach in the
Continental United States."
There he would be on the sand
during "peak tanning hours".
Scott had marry good qualities,
and he touched our lives in
countless ways, but the
characteristic I admired the most
was his unfailing dedication to his
friends. On several occasions
when people had said negative
things about one of his friends,
each time he came to our rescue
and defended us at any cost to
himself. This was a quality of
Scott's that I always appreciated
and wished I had the guts to do
myself.
Through it all Scott was one of
the greatest guys and certainly
one of the best friends I've ever
had. There will always be an
empty place in my heart that can
never be filled by anyone else. I,
along with many other friends,
consider myself very fortunate
and honored to have known him.
His silent influence and leader-
ship brought me through many
trials.
I can praise God for I'm going
to see Scooter again, however.
Resurrection morning now takes
on a new meaning for me. That
day will put to an end an era of
pain and suffering, and begin a
new one of "endless days
barefoot" by the Sea of Glass
where "that spirit" can run free.
Good-bye Scotty. We love
Senate Begins Forming Plans
Record New SDA Members
Sheila Elwin
With the October 24 Senate
meeting having been postponed
because of the accident to Scott
Yankelevitz last week, a special
October 29 meeting was held
this week. It began with the
Pledge of Allegiance, followed
by a devotional by Senator
Elwin.
The position of Secretary
Loudin, who was sick, was
temporarily filled by Senators
Jobe and Reinhardt.
According to a special update
from Terry Cantrell, Director
of Strawberry Festival, plans
are going better than in
previous years. Cantrell ex-
plained that this is due in part
to a larger staff of approx-
imately 30 people, including 18
photographers.
This year the Festival will in-
clude more special effects and
graphics: pictures will move
faster; the music will have a
slightly more up-beat tempo;
and some of the music will be
originally composed by
k students.
" Another definite improve-
ment over years past is the ac-
tual showing. The gym will be
arranged crosswise rather than
lengthwise, allowing everyone
to sit in front of the equipment.
Afterwards, President Shim
announced the presence of Vic-
tor Ashe, Republican
Senatorial candidate, on cam-
pus around 10:30 a.m., Oct. 30,
for any who wish to meet him.
Also, Shim gave the newest
proposed time-this Thursday
at noon--for the "surprise" in
the cafeteria.
Because of apparent student
concern over cafeteria pricing,
Senator Denton proposed to
send an official delegate to Earl
Evans, cafeteria director, to ask
him some pertinent questions
and then publish his answers.
Senator Bass introduced two
ideas which his committee has
come up with for Senate pro-
ject. These are a book detection
device for the library and a
lighted student information
sign for the cafeteria. Nothing
is definite, though, and all are
welcome to add their thoughts.
Senate adjourned after Vice
President Palsgrove reminded
the senators of the next regular
meeting, Nov. 5.
•Note* Unless otherwise
posted, all senate meetings are
open for anyone to go and
listen. If you wish to personal-
ly present an idea, please make

Record numbers of people
are joining the Seventh-day
Adventist Church, General
Conference President Neal C.
Wilson reported in his October
9 keynote address to the
church's 1984 Annual Council.
"Through the first seven
quarters of the church's ' 1 ,000
Days of Reaping' campaign,
nearly 666,000 people have
joined," Wilson explained.
"The exact figure is 1,034 bap-
tisms per day."
The campaign goal is 1,000
new members per day for 1 ,000
days beginning during the fall
of 1982 and ending at the
church's General Conference
Session in New Orleans in the
summer of 1985. Wilson said
the church expects to report
more than 1.1 million new
members at the New Orleans
meeting.
Pointing to area of strong
church growth, Wilson said the
Inter- American Division hopes
to have a membership of
900,000 by mid-1985. He said
the Mexican Union, which has
a membership of approximate-
ly 20,000 fifteen years ago, will
have 200,000 members by the
end of 1984.
Wilson said the largest
union-the East African Union
with more than 200,000 mem-
bers-"has even bigger spiritual
objectives before them." He
said an additional 13 union
conferences have more than
100,000 members-four in the
Inter- American Division, two
in the Far Eastern Division, two
in the North American Divi-
sion, two in the Africa-Indian
Ocean Division and three in the
South American Division.
"What hath God wrought!"
Wilson concluded. "Let's
renew our covenant with God,"
he said. "Let's review His
mighty acts and His ability to
save. Let's extol the goodness
and greatness of God. Let's be
a peculiar people, a called-out
people, an instrument in God's
hand to every nation, kindred,
tongue and people."
"Let's respond to God's
warnings and exaltation to His
people to obey His law," he
continued. "Let's recognize the
place of true worship and study
of God's Word as a path of
unity of faith and action that
will eliminate so many of the
peripheral issues that take up so
much of our time and energy.
And let's accept God's promise
of blessings and rewards for
those who observe His coven-

Dr. Greenleaf Talks About
1951-52 Accent
Ron Aguilera
Besides having the first Ac-
cent editor, Frances Andrews,
Southern College also has a
faculty member who was the
Accent editor 33 years ago: Dr.
Floyd Greenleaf. Dr. Greenleaf
, professor in our History
Department.
Dr. Grenleaf graduated from
SMC in 1955 with a double ma-
jor in history and religion with
i emphasis on teaching. He
later received his masters in
social science from George
Peabody College for Teachers,
which is now the Vanderbilt
School of Education. In 1976,
he completed his Ph.D. from
the University of Tennessee,
emphasizing in Latin American
History. He is currently com-
pleting a 3 volume work on
Adventism in Latin America
and the Caribbean.
Dr. Greenleaf, who had
always been interested in jour-
nalism and who had been both
i reporter and assistant editor,
became editor in the 1951-52
school year.
One of the problems the
paper faced then was that the
Accent did not carry adver-
nents. One may ask, how
did the paper operate without
advertisement? Dr. Greenleaf
tells us that the paper's budget
came from selling subscrip-
s. With the Accent coming
out every two weeks, he recalls
that they were reasonably suc-
cessful that year. They needed
4000 subscriptions and ended
up a little short. However, they
did not publish the last issue
that year to balance out the
budget.
One of the major problems
of the Accent back then was
that it did not have any trained
writers. "It was hard to find
competent news article writers
who were trained," says Dr.
Greenleaf.
In 1951-52 there were about
400-500 students on the cam-
pus. Everyone knew everybody
and there was a feeling of
togetherness. Also, the
academy was on the same cam-
pus as the college and the
academy and college students
lived together in the dorms.
Because of this the Southern
Accent had a section, "Accent
on the Academy," for the
academy activities.
Dr. Greenleaf says that he
had two sources of copy. First
of all, he kept his eyes peeled
for new stories. Secondly, staff
columnists were assigned a cer-
tain area of campus. In his year
Dr. Greenleaf had four colum-
nists cover the men's dorm,
women's dorm, married
students, and faulty. One can
see that there was more of a
personal feeling in the Accent
33 years ago.
Also, one- notices that the
Southern Accent has changed
in both its format and produc-
tion. With more students, more
offered majors, and more
faculty, the newspaper has
more sources of material. Also,
it has expanded to eight pages
in contrast to four pages in
1951-52. The changes make for
an improved paper, but today's
staff doubt if they would have
taken the job of putting a week-
ly paper out under the cir-
cumstances which Dr.
Greenleaf faced.

Death for Teague
The Tennessee Supreme Court has upheld the Hamilton County
Criminal Court jury's ruling of death by electrocution for Ray-
mond Eugene Teague. The 29-year-old Teague was convicted of
drowing his ex-wife in her bathtub April 4, 1980. His attorney
states that Teague has not yet been advised of the ruling because
he wishes to first study it before deciding on appeals.

Mondale Warns U.S. in TV Ad
The Mondale campaign put a 5-minute ad on national televi-
sion Sunday, presenting the election as a referendum on arms con-
trol. The ad was televised on all three commercial networks and
included footage of young children combined with shots of
missiles, a nuclear blast, and shots of the "Red telephone" a presi-
dent would use to respond to a nuclear attack. Mondale says "We
know if those bombs go off, its probably the end. It's over."
Job Rate Falling
Unemployment in the Chattanooga trade area fell to a prereces-
sion low of 7 percent last month. Employment Security commis-
sioner Thomas Yount said, "We have a rapidly expanding work
force, and new job opportunities are growing at an even faster
pace. Those are signs of a very healthy economy." The Chat-
tanooga Chamber of Commerce records indicate the city's larger
trade area has not posted an unemployment rate as low as 7 per-
cent since December of 1980.
A Colony on Mars
Harrison Schmitt, a former moon-walking astronaut, said a
Soviet attempt to put cosmonauts in the vicinity of Mars by Oc-
tober 1992 "is not only possible, it's highly probable." Schmitt
called a settlement on Mars "the first great adventure for
humankind of the next thousand years."
Baby Fae Improving
Baby Fae, the infant who received a transplanted baboon's heart
was removed from a respirator Monday. Doctors stated that they
did not know the heart of a 2-month-old human heart was
available the day of the operation but said that it was to large
anyway for the 14-day-old infant. By late Tuesday morning she
had become the longest-surviving human recipient of a cross-
species heart transplant,

The Christmas Seal

the work of Lung Associa-

vhich have recently
launched an education
project to teach young
people about marijuana's
health risks.
More than one-third of
high school students ad-
mit they have used mari-

Lung Association warns
that smoking marijuana is
dangerous to the lungs, es-
pecially those of children.
Among the items avail-

a parents' news magazine
that advises what to do
before a child is faced with
peer pressure to smoke
cigarettes or marijuana,
and what to do afterwards.
A poster for children with

Last summer I visited my
best friend in Atlanta, and on
my way back to Lincoln,
Nebraska, where I was living at
the time, I stopped in Col-
legedale to visit Dr. John
Wagner.
For those of you who know
Dr. Wagner, you probably
realize that with his trusting
smile and friendly outstretched
hand, he could probably sell
you your own car.
Well, I had been out of
school a year and a half, hated
my job, and was basically
bored. To make a long story
short, within twenty minutes he
sold me on going back to
school, and six weeks later I
was here.
I arrived on campus Friday
night or Sabbath morning,
depending on how you view
2:00 a.m. After having been
sold on how nice students at
Southern College were, the First
person I had contact with was
the desk worker at Thatcher
Hall. What a grouch!
I was excited to be here and
asked what she thought of the
school, and if she liked it here.
Well, I can't repeat exactly
what she said, but it wasn't
nice. Of course, one person's
opinion didn't really affect
mine, but I did stand there and
think that this was bad Public
Relations for a dorm employee.
The next person I met was
also a desk worker (Angela
Saunders), but this time I had
a very positive experience, and
today she is a wonderful friend.
So by now your probably ask-
ing yourself, what is the point
of this article? School spirit! I
love Southern College; we
should be proud to be students
at an institution where the ad-
ministration, staff, and
teachers care enough to want to
be your friends. I've been to
L.L.U., W.W.C., and Union
and have never encountered
such a caring, Christian ad-
ministration such as I've seen
here.
Southern College has the
finest President and Dean of
Students that a college could
hope for. I can't think of two
finer Christian men anywhere.
This campus is beautiful and so
are the buildings and
landscaping!
I feel sick inside everytime I
hear someone say how bad the
school is. This is a great school,
and the bottom line is, we are
"The School." If you don't like
it here, you're one of the
reasons why you don't. Like
anything else, this school is
what we as students make it.
Tomorrow when you see a
stranger, say "Hi." When you
see a true friend, give them a
hug-they just might really need
it. After your next class, tell
your teacher, "Hey, I ap-
preciate you. Thanks for being
my friend as well as my
teacher." And last, but certain-
ly not least, when you see an
administrator (President,
deans, division heads, etc.),
shake their hand and thank
them for a fine school. Let's get
l ii ed up, be proud to be a stu-
dent at. . .whatever they decide
to call it.

'ver at last-the people have

are seemingly in safe hands for

the oratory has finally stopped;

*Precipitation in all its
myriad forms: drizzle, mist,
fog, showers, rain, frost, dew,
sleet, and, before the month
ends, even snow--all this
meteorological display brings
out the prognostications of self-

have studied the number of
fogs in August, the color of
woolly bear caterpillars, the size
of acorn caps, and the number
of Blue Jays who are wintering
in our area-for the purpose of
deducing how long and severe
our winter will be;

'What you largely do in this
course must be accomplished in
the next three weeks!'

Religion Center Is Dedicated
The Religion Center was
ledicated last Friday,
November 2. As the opening
meeting for this year's Alumni
Weekend, the dedication ser-
was well attended by both
alumni of Southern Junior
College--So-Ju-Conians-and
current students, despite a light
iut constant drizzle.
On the platform were seated
distinguished men of today and
yesterday, each having a part in
the program. O.D. McKee,
er of the McKee Baking
Company; Gary Patterson,
President of the Georgia-
Cumberland Conference; Dr.
John Wagner, President of
Southern College; Al McCIure,
President of the Southern
Union; William Taylor, Direc-
of the Endowment Fund
Campaign; Dr. Jack McClarty,
Director of Development; Dr.
Gordon Hyde, Chairman of the
Division of Religion; and
Robert Pierson, former Presi-
dent of the General Con-
ference, were just a few of these
Jesse Cowdrick, a loyal sup-
porter of Southern College and
distinguished for his work both
in the church and in the public
sector, made the presentation
of So-Ju-Conian Hall and after
the acceptance by Al McCIure,
Jr., Gary Patterson, John
Wagner, and Gordon Hyde, Al
McCIure, Sr.,and Robert Pier-
son gave the dedicatory address
and prayer, respectively.
Following this came the in-
troduction of the traditional
cutting of the ribbon.
The Religion Center, former-
ly Miller Hall, will now be call-
ed So-Ju-Conian Hall. The
name was chosen because the
So-Ju-Conians have made its
renovation their project for this
year. After the renovations
through, the hall will be
plete with a chapel, faculty of
fices, classrooms, and a
Heritage Room which will hold
the SDA Library.
During the ceremony, the
landscaping was commenced
with the planting of a tree from
Graysvilie, the original home of
Southern Junior College. Other
parts of the landscaping will be
a Garden of Prayer, a sun dial,
and a fountain.
A special part of the service,
which was not put in the
bulletin, was the making of Dr.
Jack McClarty as an honorary
So-Ju-Conian. Although not
old enough to be an actual So-
Ju-Conian, Dr. McClarty's
leadership and work in behalf
of the organization is very
much appreciated.
The dedication service ended
with a tour of the facilities.
Weekend Features Southern Union Gymnastics Show
A gymnastics show Saturday
night at Southern College of
Seventh-day Adventists will
culminate a two-day southern-
states gymnastics workshop on
the Collegedale campus.
Gymnastics teams from par-
ticipating schools will perform
short routines beginning at 8
in the Physical Education
Center. Blue Holm of Chat-
tanooga, former circus per-
former and now coach at the
Tennessee Academy of Gym-
nastics, is assisting throughout
the workshop and will also par-
ticipate on Saturday night.
Over 300 representatives
from 1 7 secondary schools
ranging from Miami to Cen-
tralia, Missouri, and Hamburg,
Pennsylvania, will be on the
college campus Thursday and
Friday for an intensive
acrosport clinic.
Steve Elliot, a top world-
class acrosport from the
University of Nebraska, is the
master clinician for the
workshop. He is world cham-
pion in floor routine and tram-
poline. Due to an injury incur-
red while performing in Japan,
he will be coaching here rather
than performing, according to
Ted Evans. Mr. Evans is
workshop director and assistant
professor in the Division of
Health, Physical Education,
and Recreation at Southern
Board Votes on Nursing Change
College.
Keith Carter, men's pair na-
tional champion in 1979-80,
from the University of Wiscon-
sin in Whitewater, is also a
clinician for the workshop.
For a number of years a
gymnastics workshop hosted by
Southern College has alternated
with a music workshop. Guests

Students in the baccalaureate
nursing program here at
Southern College will no longer
be required to attend one of
their two final semesters on the
Orlando Campus. This action
voted on and accepted at
the last Southern College Board
Meeting, held la^t Thursday,
November 1.
There are several reasons for
this change. One of them is that
11 save money and enable
the Division of Nursing to work
more efficiently with the
budget.
Another reason concerns the
married nurses in the bac-
calaureate program. Many of
their spouses face many dif-
ficulties in accompanying the
student nurses to Florida for a
semester.
And finally, many bac-
calaureate students hold jobs in
Chattanooga as registered
FM 90.5 Conducts Classic Celebration
nurses. One of the area
hospitals wrote to the college,
recommending that the Orlan-
do requirement be dismissed
since leaving a job posed pro-
blems for both the hospital and
the students.
The A.S. program, however,
will remain unchanged. The
college feels that it is important
for the nursing student to spend
time in an Adventist hospital,
a primary reason for sending
them to Orlando.
Also, the clinical space
available in Chattanooga is too
tight due to the competition
between other college nursing
programs.
Katie Lamb from the Divi-
sion of Nursing states: "I
believe the move for upper divi-
sion nursing students remaining
on this campus will increase the
growth of our baccalaureate
program."
Todd Parrish
Non-commercial, Fine arts
radio station FM90.5 WSMC
will conduct its Classic Celebra-
tion November 10 - 20. The
"Celebration" is the public
radio station's annual fund
drive to generate financial sup-
port from its listeners for the
coming year.
Each year this listener sup-
port is needed to keep programs
like NPR's "Morning Edition"
and "All Things Considered,"
"Adventures In Good Music
with Karl Haas," "Firing
Line," "Monitoradio,"
"Business Times, the
Philadelphia Orchestra, Sin-
fonia, the Chicago Symphony,
New Releases, the Chattanooga
Symphony, and Nocturne on
FM90.5's airwaves.
"As a result of our previous
drive we maintained most of
the programs you enjoy and
even acquired a few new ones,"
says general manager Olson
Perry. "We also installed
lightning protection devices at
our transmitter site."
Perry forecasts several plans
for the coming fiscal year.
First, funds collected from
listeners during the Classic
Celebration will be used to
maintain the broadcast of pro-
grams the public wants to hear
and keep the station on the air
each day for another year.
Secondly, Perry says, FM90.5
must soon replace an aging pro-
duction console and two tape
recorders. This need alone will
cost $20,000.
FM90.5 is the oldest non-
commercial radio station in
Chattanooga--on the air since
1961. It joined National Public
Radio as a charter member in
1970, and it was the first radio
station in a seven-state region to
acquire satellite-receiving
capability in 1980.
Program director Todd Par-
rish urges the public to call or
write in their pledges for the
Classic Celebration early.
"With everybody pitching in
we can celebrate another full
year of high-quality programs
and hopefully reduce the
number of on-air interruptions
during your favorite
programs." g
The event will of ficially begin "
at 9 p.m. November 10, and the
telephone number to make a
tax-deductible contribution
during the Classic Celebration
is (615) 396-2320.
Editorial
Go Ahead, Procrastinate!
3 What do you have to do tonight? If you're a typical student
you probably have to study for a quiz, start preparing for a test,
finish an assignment, and begin to wonder how many Sundays
you have left before your research project needs to be turned in.
If you are an unusual student you are ready for a quiz, have been
reading your book aU along so you don't need to study for a test,
finished your assignment in class while the teacher was lecturing,
and had your research project done three days after the teacher
assigned it. Now which student's shoes would you rather be in?
I would rather be the first student. It really bothers me to be
part of such a fast paced society. I'm not the type to study ten
hours every day, be in six clubs, be an RA in the dorm, and be
class president all at the same time. Sure those things are nice,
but one at a time! I sometimes find myself running pretty fast
(people to go, places to see, things to do), but then I stop and
ask myself "for what?" It sometimes depresses me when I think
of life as a secular person might look at it. I'm going to college,
so I can get a good job, so I can raise a family, so I can send
them to college, so they can get a good job, so they can raise a
family. . . You get the picture?
What has happened to our world in the last one hundred years?
We have become advanced in technology, computers have entered
the scene, transportation has changed incredibly, communication
is lightning fast. They call this progress. I call it a tragic waste.
I would like to visit grandma in horse and wagon and live in the
forest. I guess I'd like to live with the Amish. When society is
so fast paced that we began to lose sight of why we're moving
so fast, it's time to slow down.
I have a research paper due in a couple of weeks. 1 haven't
begun work on it yet. I'll probably stay up till 3 a.m. the night
before getting it done. But I don't have time to do it before then.
There are some people that need to be visited, a friend that needs
to be talked to, a date to go on, a football game to play. I'll get
old, friends will move, people will die, and I don't want to be
a person that says I should have played that game, made more
friends, visited that person. No, I want to feel that I've lived a
rewarding life. So go ahead, procrastinate!
Your opinions and
comments are requested by
the Southern Accent.

SUPPORT APPRECIATED
Dear Editor
I would like to thank the ad-
ministration, cafeteria, and
especially Dean Schlisner and
Mr. Spears for their support
two weekends ago. You really
helped make rough times a lit-
tie bit easier for us all. Thank
you for the help and true chris-
tian example.
Sincerely,
Robert Lonto
P.S. SURFS UP, so catch some
tasty waves.
Happy Birthday President Wagner!
Last week during the
November 1, Thursday lunch
hour the "surprise" that
originally had been part of the
Fall Festival activities
materialized. But rather than
the student body being the reci-
pients of the surprise, our Presi-
dent, Dr. John Wagner, was
the receiver of it. A surprise
birthday party, with a birthday
cake and gift included, was
thrown for him in the cafeteria.
Those students who eat at
12:00 were privileged to have a
slice of the large birthday cake
and to watch Dr. Wagner's
reactions as he opened his gift.
Compliments of the Southern
College Student Association,
the President was given a
"Chicago Pneumatic '/2-inch
Impact Wrench."
In appreciation for the
"pleasant surprise,"
Wagner wishes to thank both
the student body and the SA.
"What a neat surprise!" he
says. "Thank you so very much
for the kind words, cards, and
'just right* gift. I'm thankful
for the privilege of serving here
at SC and having so many great
students and faculty. Thank
yo.u." ,v , „., (iiuidks

Blood Assurance Drive Continues
Joel Fegarido
Southern College has hold of
a good thing. But many
students here do not realize the
importance or do not even
know about the free "insurance
plan" they receive through
Blood Assurance.
Blood Assurance has given
and will continue to provide
life-sustaining blood free, to
any student who might some-
day need blood, if 25 percent or
more of the studnet body
donates blood. In addition,
donor's immediate family are
also covered for one year.
Back in 1970, when Blood
Assurance was first formed, the
need was seen to l)promote the
recruitment of enough healthy

Reflections
I Deserve Better
Gordon Bietz
A parable, if you please:
Once upon a time there was a
great preacher who died. He
went to St. Peter at the pearly
gates to gain entrance to heaven
and found, when he arrived,
that there was a long line of
people waiting in front of St.
Peter's desk. St. Peter seemed
to be taking his time in talking
to the people. The great
preacher was very impatient. I
could organize this line better
than this; why, I could get these
people taken care of in no time,
he thought to himself.
He went to the head of the
line to talk to St. Peter and was
told by the helping angels to go
back and wait in line. "This is
ridiculous," he told the angel
that was by him, near the back
of the line. "Why, when 1 was
on the earth I never waited in
lines. I had secretaries and
church members to do things
for me. My church was better
organized than this." The angel
smiled and said nothing.
Mr. Great Preacher began
looking around at the people in
line with him. He hadn't notic-
ed them before. Most of them
were obviously problem people.
Many were not dressed in
clothes as nice as his, and some
of them looked like folks he
had seen on earth waiting in
line for a handout. Some of the
people were obviously very
uneducated. It became obvious
to him that there had been some
mistake-he must be in the
wrong line.
He went up to the front of
the line again to ask whether
this weren't the wrong line.
"Don't you have a line for
those of us who have been
Christians all our lives? I mean,
it is obvious that some of those
in this line are latecomers to the
cause. Do you know how long
I have preached this message?
I have preached to hundreds
and thousands. Certainly you
have a faster line where the
registration procedures are not
so long-a line for the full-
timers."
He was politely told that he
was in the right line. So he
returned to his place. He was
getting more and more impa-
tient at how things were being
handled, and most important,
how he was being handled.
He managed to wait rather
impatiently for about fifteen
minutes until he noticed that St.
Peter ws not even calling peo-
ple in the order that they were
standing in line. He didn't do
anything until an obviously
very uninfluenual man was call-
ed to the head of the line. The
man had been standing behind
him. This was too much. He
simply was not used to being so
overlooked-and after all his
work! Why, most of the people
going in front of him didn't
have one tenth the knowledge
of heaven and theology that he
had. And he was sure that they
hadn't converted as many peo-
ple as he had. In his frustration
he suddenly saw another line.
Funny, he thought to himself,
why didn't I see that before?
From where he was standing,
the line looked as if it was mov-
ing more rapidly, and people in
it looked much more distin-
guished. He quickly switched
lines.
Senate Meets for 3rd Consecutive Week
One of the angels there rec-
ognized him immediately and
said, "Why, Mr. Great Preach-
er, it certainly is our pleasure to
have you here. You are too im-
portant to stand in line-let me
usher you to the head of the
line."
Why, this is more like it, Mr.
Great Preacher thought to
himself.
At the front of the line he
was given a lot of the attention
he was used to. He was moved
quickly through rcgistration-so
quickly, in fact, that he hardly
knew what he was signing. A
very attentive, flattering angel
ushered him through a large
door. He was so gratified with
the attention he was given by
the angels in this line that he
didn't even notice the sign over
the door he went through. It
read, "Hell."

SC Student Relives Europe
Stan Hobbs
Monday, July 9, 1984,11:45
a.m., along with my fellow tour
members 1 was boarding Delta
flight 15 at the Frankfurt am
Main Flughaven. Homeward
bound, 1 had just completed a
"once in a lifetime" experience.
As I thought back over the past
seven weeks, I wondered if 1
would ever return to Europe,
but even if I did, I knew it
would not be the same as this
first time. The time, the places,
the people would all be dif-
ferent. This tour was over, I
knew, but the very fact that it
could not be repeated, ensured
that it would not be easily
forgotten. Its special memories
would always remain as a
verifiable "dream come true."

New behind the scenes in the
Southern College's cafeteria
this year is Chang Kwon Kim.
Chang, who is Korean by na-
tionality, is the school's new
chef. After graduating from
Korean Junior College, Chang
taught elementary church
school. He began to cook pro-
fessionally when he came to the
United States.
Chang's first cooking job
was with a German company in
San Fransisco. While working
for Denny's Restaurant in
Sacramento, he passed the
California Board for chefs.
After moving to the East Coast,
he worked as a chef, head
cook/supervisor in various
hotels in Atlanta, including the
Fairmont Hotel, the Holiday
Inn, the Hyatt Regency, and
the Hilton Hotel.
Chang says his specialties are
Chinese food and German
food. He and his cooking have
been featured in the Atlanta
Journal.
Chang states that his biggest
problem has been persuading
his employers to let him have
Sabbaths off. This temptation
was related to the chance for
promotion. Chang explains
that there is a five level hierar-
chy, from Cook to Executive
Chef. Advancement required
working on the Sabbath.
Also a religion student here,
Chang is preparing to become
a minister to his people. He
believes that sharing Jesus with
those who don't know Him is
the most important thing in life;
as he puts it, "Seventy years is
too short." His goal is to
become a minister to the three
quarters of a million Korean
people here in the U.S., only
about 8 thousand of whom are
Seventh-day Adventist.
Chang's family consists of
his wife, also a teacher and a
cook, two daughters, and t

British Baroness Visits Southern
The Mad Hatter
'oni King
Some people are collectors,
Rod then there are some who
lollect hats. Dean Ron Qualley
is one of them. Only he doesn't
^ist collect any old hat-it must
bill. The number, the
ngth, or the color of the bill
loesn't matter just as long as
hat has at least one. He has
jouble billed, sword billed,
i helicopter hat, an
iephant skin hat from Zim-
ibwe, a Russian hat and the
.vorite one--a blue hat from
435th Airforce Squadron in
Mine, Germany.
His first hat was a 1969 San
ancisco Giants cap and his
recent hat is from the
World's Fair, given to him by
Etacy Christman, the daughter
pf Dean Reed Christman.
| The collection didn't start

already picked up from dif-
ferent sporting events. Dean
Bualley couldn't bear to part
nith them, so he carted them
Hong and used them to decor-
Hte his office. The dorm guys
Began asking if he had this hat
Br that hat until his collection
Bf 20 grew: to-the- present num-
Ber of 522 with 490 of them in
his office now.
Recently the office hats have
been reorganized by Derrick
Richardson and Charles
Schnell, who grouped them in-
to categories: overseas, schools,
golf, army, Olympics, diesel,
baseball, and football. Each
one is listed according to
whether it was bought, don-
ated, or found. Qualley states,
"Now I have only the ones I
need in my office."
Although Dean Qualley has
never worn them all, he does
wear one almost every day, the
most used one being a Detroit
Tigers hat-like Magnum wears-
-"for his wife's sake." His wife
wishes he would collect some-
thing more valuable, but one
never knows if this collection
will be someday.
Qualley relates that there is a
man in Florida who has enough
hats to cover a football field
row by row, but Dean Qualley's
goal for now is 1 ,000 hats by
July 1, 1985. He doesn't think
that he will make it, but he's
going to give it a try. He would
like to thank all those who have
donated to his collection so far,
and who have saved him a lot
of money.
One thing is for sure-he'U
always keep the sun out of his
eyes and won't have to worry
about a sunburned head if he
should ever go bald.

Lady Carolyn Cox, an active
member of the House of Lords
in Great Britain, found the
reception of her short stay at
Southern as "most heart war-
ming" and the "ethos of the
college a pleasant one."
In turn, students and
teachers found her friendly and
gracious as a person and spell-
binding as a lecturer. Mostly
faculty attended her 4 o'clock
lecture on the similar problems
and challenges of education in
Britain and America. One of
the problems, according to
Lady Cox, is falling scholastic
standards; for example, one
fourth of London's student
leaders cannot multiply.
Although not shared by the
American educational system,
the political use of the
classroom "is a growing pro-
blem in some English schools"
informed Lady Cox. For teach-
ing the traditional views of
British society, Lady Cox was
one time knocked off her chair
and her pupils were subjected
to vehement abuse by radical
students. "We must take
seriously these problems, not
run away from them," urged
Lady Cox.
After a short reception
followed by a dinner in her
honor, the Baroness spoke at a
7 o'clock joint worship. In 40
short minutes, she took the
students on a mini trip behind
the Iron Curtain, relating her
experience of taking medical
supplies into Poland. Accord-
ing to Lady Cox, the needs are
so great in Poland, that the
Polish consider themselves not
the third world but the fourth
world.
Lady Cox also pointed out

that despite their underprivileg-
ed condition, the Polish are
very generous, courageous, and —
humorous. They joke about the >^P
food shortage with the line that
the housewife with her empty
basket forgets whether she is
coming from or going to
market.
"Lady Cox inspired us,"
commented one student.
Another student said, "Al-
though faced with the depres-
sion and problems of the under-
privileged, she still manages to
maintain an untarnished gen-
uine sweetness." 20 to 30
students responded to her in-
vitation to have a "bit of a
chat" after her lecture.
Students were still waiting an
hour and a quarter afterwards
when she had to run to catch
her plane.
Lady Cox has been touring
America, discussing her ex-
periences and findings in educa-
tion and in Poland, concerns of
both Britain and America.

As the wheels of the L-1011
touched the runway at Hart-

about the realization of my
dream. There was no question
that I had gained a broader
understanding of the history,
the culture, and the people of
Europe. At the same time, I
had also acquired a better ap-
preciation of my own country.

Another Look at
^> Thanksgiving
The Thanksgiving vacation starts early for most of us. By 5:00
pioS Tuesday the majority of Southern Cd«£££
will be on their way home or will have already reached their
ta Nations. We wil/be enjoyig home-cooked meals for a chan ,
especiaUy on Thanksgiving day. It's that scene rtiat generaU,
comes to my mind when I think of Thanksgiving. Th. one hoi.
day for me, in the past, has been a time to overeat, a time to be
a glutton without worrying about the aftereffects. The same
mostly true for a majority of the students on campus. And while
His nothing wrong with thinking about a table full of de too-
delights, I believe that it is important to reflect also on the ongmal
meaning of Thanksgiving.
The first Thanksgivings were actually harvest celebrations
Farmers and their families would give thanks and prayers to God
for the bountiful harvest of the season. For that reason,
Thanksgiving is still held in the Fall. Usually a hearty meal was
served during these celebrations, but the emphasis was always on
giving thanks. .
A couple weeks ago the gist of this column was on the impor-
tance of letting each other know that we appreciate each other.
During the Thanksgiving season, we let God know that we ap-
preciate Him. Although this act should be an everday occurrance,
this holiday allows those who forget also to thank God. 1 he
Thanksgiving holiday then is a time for all of us to remember our
Creator and His blessings.
Yet some individuals will look at their immediate surroundings
and decide that they have nothing to thank God for. Not all of
our experiences give us the current day's equivalent of the "boun-
tiful harvests" that our forefathers had. However, I believe that
if one were to search deeply enough, he would find something
to be appreciative for, even if there is only one hobby, one item,
or one person that an individual enjoys, then that person or ob-
ject is enough to thank God for.
In the next week, those small blessings, along with the larger
ones, will be brought before the Creator and given thanks for by
many people. We too should be part of that group.

[ The Sufi religious sect prints

I parables which are a delight to

Itle man they called "Mullah."
^There's one story that's very
■poignant. It tells of the day
Mullah was out in the street on
■lis hands and knees, looking
for something, and a friend
came up and said, "Mullah,
fcvhat are you looking for?"
I And Mullah said, "I have
lost my key."
■ "Oh, Mullah, that's terrible;
I'll help you find it."
B So he got on his hands and

Bbout where did you lose it?"
■ Mullah said, "I lost it in my

■ "Then what are you looking

■ Mullah replied, "Because

■ You know, that's hilarious,
■but that's what we do with our

about ourselves is in the light

I But what is essential is invisi-
ble to the eye. So where do we
find what is essential?
Dr. Leo Buscaglia, in his
What is Essential is Invisible to the Eye
book Living, Loving and Lear-
ning, asks the question, "Are
you truly the you of you? Or
are you the you that other peo-
ple have told you you are?"
Some people spend their entire
lives telling us who we are, and
they make a profession of it.
"Are you truly
the you of you?"
Madison Avenue gives us

thick hair, for thin hair, for
falling hair, for rising hair, for
no hair! There is a hair tonic

adults and senior citizens.

nonsense? But we use it,
because if we don't we're afraid
the people around us are going
to leave us on the dock for not
using a certain kind of
deodorant. And the boat will
come back if we start using it.
In looking for our "keys,"
we might sacrifice self and
search for ourselves in the light
of someone else's opinion of
who we should be. Sometimes
this is called love.
Heritage Singers Seek Soprano
The Heritage Singers, a well

ualifications are outlined in
e open letter. "(The soprano)
jeeds to be experienced and in-
ferested in traveling around the
world," the letter reads. "She
must also be dedicated to the
ministry of music, as this is the
purpose of the Heritage

by stating that the group is go-
ing to travel throughout the
United States and has schedul-
ed a trip to the Far East in
January. Anyone interested in
trying out for the Heritage
One of the best definitions of
love comes to us from Saint-
Exupery, the French
philosopher who says that,
"Perhaps love is the process of
my leading you gently back to
yourself." Not to whom I want
you to be, but to who you are.
Dr. Buscaglia adds to that by
saying, "If you want to know
me, you've got to get into my
head and if I want to know
about you, I can't say, 'She is
fat. She is thin. She is a Jew.
She is a Catholic. For she is far
more than that."' The loving
individual frees himself from
"labels." He says, "No more."
But first we must love
ourselves enough to accept all
that is in us, for we are each
unique. From the common
ground which we share with
everyone on this planet, grows
a crop of unique individuals.
Perhaps the essence of
education is to cultivate the soil
of this earth to prepare us with
the understanding, from loving
hands, that help us to discover
our uniquenesses, to teach us
how to develop it, and then to
show us how to give it away.

"It is the weak who are

"Gentleness can only be ex-

"...relationships
change people"
The following poem helps to
illustrate the price of putting
off-especially putting off car-
ing about people we really love
and appreciate. The poem is
called Things You Didn't Do.
Remember the day I borrowed
your brand new car and I
dented it?
And remember the time I
dragged you to the beach,
and you said it would rain,
and it did?
I thought you'd say, "I told
you so." But you didn't.
Do you remember the time I
flirted with all the guys to make
you jealous, and you were?
I thought you'd leave me, but
you didn't.
Do you remember the time I
spilled strawberry pie all
over your car rug?
I thought you'd hit me, but
you didn't.
And remember the time I for-
got to tell you the dance
was formal and you showed
up in jeans?
I thought you'd drop me, but
you didn't.
Yes, there were lots of things
you didn't do.
But you put up with me, and
you loved me, and you pro-
tected me.
There were lots of things I
wanted to make up to you
when you returned from
Vietnam.
But you didn't.
Seven words that stand out in
my mind are these: "Facts
don't change people, relation-
ships change people."
We must be the friend in our
relationships that help others
find that "key." Be the love
that gently leads them back to
themselves.
Uohn 4:8 says that, "He
who does not love does not
know God; For God is love."
God leads us back to the
darkness of self where, in the
light of the love we have learn-
ed, He shows us who we are.
"Facts don't change peo-
ple." It takes a personal rela-
tionship with Christ for He is
the "Key" to self. He is the love
that leads us gently back to
ourselves.
While men look on the out-
ward appearance, God looks on
the heart.
For you see, what is essential
is invisible to the eye.

Now that all the votes have
been counted, all the accep-
tance and concession speeches
made, and now that those of us
who stayed up until 2:45 a.m.
watching the returns come in
have recovered from the
headaches we so richly deserv-
ed, we can begin to analyze the
significance and trends of the
19S4 elections.
Although this past election
appears to have been a tremen-
dous vindication of the conser-
vative philosophy, with Reagan
winning more electoral votes
than has ever been done before,
the majority of other facts seem
to indicate that this election did
not reveal the existence of a ma-
jor realignment in American
public opinion. There are many
valid comparisons that can be
drawn between this election and
the reelection of President
Eisenhower in 1956. Then, as
now, there was an immensely
popular incumbent president
who was reelected by a tremen-
dous margin. However,
Eisenhower's success did not
carry over into the Congress,
where a highly liberal.
Democratic constituency was
elected. This situation also has
appeared this year. The
Republicans had a net loss of
two seats in the Senate, result-
ing in a much more liberally-
oriented Senate; neither did
they gain control of (he House,
acquiring only fourteen seats.
where a gain of 25 to 35 had
been expected.
So then, what conclusions
can we draw from last Tues-
day's election? The president
and his supporters may claim a
broad mandate for his goals
and idealogy, but this is not en-
tirely accurate. American
voters, while giving Reagan a
vote of confidence on him as an
individual, showed their reser-
vations regarding his policy and
idealogy when they elected a
liberal Congress to serve as a
check upon him. Reagan may
attempt to repeat the heady
days of early 1981 in the early
months of his second term;
however, he will be held back
by this new, more liberal
Congress.
In actuality, the type of
legislation he will be able to get
passed will be more in line with
the type of legislation passed
during the last two years.
Reagan's election may appear
impressive on the surface, but
in the final analysis it does not
signify a shift in attitude by the
American populace. Reagan,
the man, may have a mandate,
but his idealogy does not.

He says that he was selected
for the job because the school
was looking for someone who
had experience in trust services

institution.
After graduating from Col-
legedale Academy, he spent
four and a half years here and
in 1964 returned for a four-year
stint as voice and chorale in-
structor. He is a man of many
talents and many places. He has

This week marked the open-
ing of the volleyball season.
More importantly it marked the
beginning of the B-league
volleyball season.
I know, all you A-league
jocks and jockettes are pro-
bably saying, "Hey, what's go-
ing on here. Isn't A-league the
superior league?" Well, in an
informal poll which had one
person as its sample (me), it was
found that the only people who
thought of A-league as the bet-
ter league was A-leaguers
themselves. Let's face it. Why
should we as fans feed the egos
of these few who call
themselves the select? By the
time a volleyball match was
over, most of them wouldn't be
able to get their heads out the
gym door. Another reason:
who wants to see bump-set-
spike, bump -set-spike for an
hour and a half?
So come on sports fans,
come over and watch B-league
where the action is more like
carry-double hit-missed spike.
Let the A-league play with
themselves.
P.S. After Thanksgiving
watch for Hefty's Bag when
we'll take a look at the Top 10
women in volleyball.

Senior Challenge: Become a Responsible Alumnus
Reinhold E. Smith
As a Senior it is your respon-
sibility to start thinking about
becoming an alumnus, a
responsible alumnus, one who
cares enough to sacrifice for the
Christian education of our
successors.
After one paragraph you're
saying, "Is this guy crazy?" If
you're like me, you will pro-
bably graduate owing someone
money: GSL, NDSL, the bank,
parents and/or the school. So
why would you want to con-
tribute to your already growing
debt? The reason lies in the fact
that a Christian education is the
single-most important sacrifice
we can make.
Teachers aren't exempt.
How many of you teachers and
staff belong to the "Committee
of 100?" Every teacher, staff
person, administrator, and
alumnus should belong! Com-
mittee of 100 is a "group of
concerned individuals and
alumni who donate at least five
hundred dollars a year."
As Adventists, we don't
smoke, drink, or waste our
money on too much nightlife,
so wouldn't that put us ahead
financially? According to U.S.
News and World Report, we
have the wealthiest members
per capita of any church. We as
a church stress the importance
of education, and thus we have
more professional members
making better salaries.
If you think I'm insinuating
that as a senior you should start
thinking about giving five-
hundred dollars a year, you're
right! Let me show you how
easy this can be: If you smok-
ed 1 Vi packs of cigarettes per
day (the national average) you
would spend about $550.00 a
year, and that doesn't even in-
clude drinking.
If it were not for the alumni,
the real cost of our education
would be about $15,000. Who
could afford that? Who can af-
ford $8,000? According to San-
ford Ulmer, the individual who
had the vision to suggest the
ambitious undertaking of the
endowment fund, fifty-percent
of Southern College students
come from homes that have an-
nual incomes of less than
$10,000 per year."
In 1980 Mr. and Mrs. San-
ford Ulmer stopped to see his
alma mater, and decided to
help students because as Mr.
Ulmer put it, "There are plen-
ty of buildings on the campus,
and that's nice, but they don't
have enough students in them.
But they will now if I can help
it."
In four short years the
Ulmers have seen the Endow-
ment Fund grow to nearly six
million dollars to "help defray
tuition costs not to build
buildings."
According to Ulmer, Dr.
Barrow stated: "If the tuition
would drop $1,000 next year,
approximately 200 more
students would be able to at-
tend who are not attending
now." And with 200 students,
the over-all budget would
improve.
When asked the question,
why don't Adventists support
their schools like Catholics
do?Bill lies, Chairman of the
Committee of 100, responded,
"Adventists act poor, think
poor, and spend poor. We
don't perceive ourselves as rich.
Christ is coming soon, and yet
we, as a church, seem far too
interested in possessions, in-
stead of Christian education."
As a senior, I want to
challenge my classmates to go
to the development office and
pledge $500.00 dollars toward
the Endowment Fund.
If 300 seniors pledged
$500.00, we would have
$150,000, and did you know
that BECA (Business Ex-
ecutives Challenge Alumni) will
match it? It then becomes
$300,000 or 300 scholarships of
$ 1 ,000 for students next
year-300 students who might
not otherwise have the oppor-
tunity to attend here.
Seniors, why don't we
organize a committee entitled,
Seniors Endowment 100 and let
this be our class gift, the best
Southern College has ever
received.

Gymnastics Clinic
A Success
Slew Martin & Jerry Russell
Once again this year our
campus was invaded by acad-
emy gymnasts from throughout
the Southern Union, Virginia
and Pennsylvania for the bi-
annual gymnastics clinic and
show. A total of 19 schools and
325 gymnasts participated in
the 4-day workshop. Coach
Ted Evans was especially pleas-
ed with this years clinic because
six new teams were present, and
he said that he felt that they
added alot to this year's show.
The master clinician was
Steve Elliot from Lincoln,
Nebraska who is world renown-
ed in acro-sports. He won the
gold medal in this event in 1980
and was the first American ever
to do so. The other clinicians
were Keith Carter and Blue
Holm. .
Coach Evans speculated that
there were nearly 2000 spec-
tators on hand. He feels that in-
terest in acro-sports is on the
rise and is excited about next
years Freshmen talent. "On the
average two out of three teams
present were larger than ever
before", he said, "and it seems
the academy coaches are ex-
cited about there programs. We
look forward to a strong gym-
nastics team next year."

than 90 minutes as Dale Gardner attached a locking frame on the
can-shaped craft. Earlier Allen had flown out ot the satellite us.
ing a rocket-powered backpack. He had attached a 4-foot pole-
like device called a "stinger" into one end of the satellite. Astroaut
Anna Fisher, using the robot arm of the space shuttle, snared a J

cargo bay.
Kidnap Victim Found
Law enforcement officers from two counties joined state
troopers last Monday in a hunt for a man who is believed to havt
kidnapped a Georgia woman after killing her husband early Sun-
day. The woman, Victoria C. Holbert, 32, of Augusta, Georgia,
fled from her abductor's car early Monday at an Interstate 40 1
truck stop west of Jackson, Tennessee. A state trooper spotted
the car in Hardeman County several hours later and began a chase,
The man wrecked his car and ran into some nearby woods.

Brock Hall Dedicated
U.S. Trade Rep Speaks
Brent Van Arsdell
On Thursday, November 29,
Southern College honored
businessman and patron
Richard A. Brock by naming a
new 2.3 million dollar
classroom and office building
the "Richard Brock Hall."
Jack McClarty, Vice President
of Development at Southern
College, said that Brock's par-
ticipation in the Project 80
Campaign as a contributor and
a fund raiser made the project
a success and insured the con-
struction of Brock Hall.
Richard Brock stated that nam-
ing a building in his honor came
as a surprise, but said he was
glad to be able to help an in-
stitution such as Southern Col-
lege. Mr. Brock said, "I have
friend who said if he had two
people apply for the same job,
he would prefer the one that
: from Southern College
because of their work ethic and
the way they always try to do
their best." Brock took the op-
portunity to do a little pro-
moting of Southern College's
endowment fund drive. "Until
n adequate endowment is pro-
ided for this school, Southern
College will remain in jeopar-
dy," he said. "A 10 million
dollar endowment program is a
necessary thing and it must
come from somewhere."
In a tribute speech to Richard
Brock, Jack McClarty said,
"Southern College has a legacy
of people who set out to serve
and only coincidentally ended
up with a building named after
them."
The dedication address was
presented by a nephew of
Richard Brock, currently the
United States Trade Represen-
tative, former U.S. Con-
gressman and Senator, the
Honorable Bill Brock. Bill
Brock, a member of the
cabinet, was appointed by
President Reagan in January of
1981 and confirmed by the
Senate. Bill Brock is the Presi-
dent's chief trade advisor and
international trade negotiator.
He spoke about the need to
teach values and ethics along
with basic academics. "I am
awed at the ethical challenges
that face my children. I watch
the news and 1 see a man with
an artificial heart." Bill Brock
said he hoped that ethics will
continue to be taught at South-
ern College.
, The program began in
Ackerman Auditorium in the
music building with the
Southern College Band playing
some Christmas songs. Dr.
Wagner recognized the impor-
tant guests and was the master
of ceremonies.
Brock Hall was officially
opened with a ribbon cutting in
which Richard Brock and O.D.
McKee ceremonially opened the
building. Mr. Richard Reiner,
vice president of Finance at
Southern College, said that the
building was constructed at a
reduced cost because much of
the work was done by college
employed work crews. The
hand for the ribbon cutting
with Dr. McClarty praising the
crew and commending the
worker who hung the doors.
The ceremony concluded
with a guided tour of the
building by Mr. Reiner.
Most of the building is in use,
but the ground floor, which will
house WSMC-FM, is still under
construction. The building is a
47,000 square foot, brick and
glass structure designed by
Klaus Nentwig. The ground
floor is scheduled to be oc-
cupied in February of 1985.
SM Brings Home Five Korean Orphans
1/acAr Wood
I "A bringer of happiness" can
I be the words that best describe
■the job Mark Cox found
I himself engaged in on
| November 12. Last year Mark
a theology major at Southern
College, found that he would
be able to spend a year in Korea
as a teacher. Loving to travel
and loving kids Mark believed
this opportunity to be like a
dream come true.
Preparing for the trip was no
problem. But like most trips it
is very difficult to have
everything go as planned, and
Mark found after stopping in
Los Angles he had been given
the wrong type of visa. Having
needed to receive a worker's
visa allowing him to stay in
Korea for 6 months before
renewal, he had been given a
visitor's visa only allowing him
to stay 90 days. Arranging to
have things taken care of later,
he arrived in Korea August 21 .
While (eachine, Mark was in-
formed l at he wo u id be flown
to Japan at the end of his 90
days for a week while his new
visa was transferred over. More
complications arose and his
scheduled week in Japan grew
anywhere from 6 weeks to 2
months. The idea of spending
that much time in Japan having
very little to do did not thrill
Mark and he searched for a
new idea. The suggestion of an
orphan flight (escorting Korean
orphans to the United States)
was brought up to his attention
and finding it to his liking, took
it. After filling out forms, at-
tending briefs and praying,
Mark was accepted for the job.
He was given a seat on a flight
leaving for Memphis November
12, just 5 days before his
deadline to leave.
Mark went to the Holt
Children Service on the 9th of
November to make sure
everything was going to work
out and found to his amaze-
ment he would be escorting five
Korean babies: three boys and
two girls, one of which were
over five-months old. He also
was introduced to his co-escort
Mrs. Choi (Chay). Although
she spoke very little English,
they found it easy to get along.
On the 12th they were driven
by van to the airport where
Customs and Security made
sure everything was in order.
Then Mark and Mrs. Choi were
on their own.
The flight wsa all but relax-
ing for the two escorts. Chang-
ing and feeding seemed to be
the main events. Upon being
well into the flight Mark
discovered the plane also was
occupied by forty-eight women
from Long Beach, California,
who had just spent time in
Korea and to his relief loved

Lectures in China, Hawaii
Dr. Ray Heffelin, currently
on sabbatical, has been invited
to the People's Republic of
China from December 3 to 16
to confer with scientists in-
terested in the same field of
molecular research. On Decem-
ber 21 , he will report at the In-
ternational Conference of
Pacific Basin Chemical Socie-
ties in Honolulu. Two Southern
College students, Ken Priddy
and Erin Sutton, are co-authors
of the Hawaii report.
Lectures have been schedul-
ed at Fu-Dan University in
Shanghai, at the University of
Science and Technology in
Hofei, and at the University of
Science and Technology in Beij-
ing (Peking). The largest por-
tion of the time in the PRC has
been scheduled for intensive
conferences with two scientists
at Hofei. The two men have
been studying the same area as
have Dr. Hefferlin and his
Southern College students for
about the same length of time.
Contact was established in
March of 1984. This opportuni-
ty to collaborate has been pro-
vided by the Southern College
Alumni Association by means
of a grant made to Dr. Hef-
ferlin recently.
The research area consists of
the construction of periodic
systems of molecules. It is
known among scientists as
"pure" research, meaning that
it has no immediate application
other than contributing to our d
understanding of the basic plan
of the universe. These periodic
systems are based on experi-
mental data which other scien-
tists measure and on complex
mathematical theory. They
serve the same purposes as does
the familiar chart of the
elements: they provide a visual
and mathematical way of fin-
Editorial
A Little Good News
" As I sit at my desk writing this editorial a newspaper lays within
arms' reach, proclaiming bad news as a headline and more of the
same within its pages. The top story is the gas leak in India which
has killed more than 1 ,000 people and injured 20,000 others. The
article below that one has to do with a hijacking and the holding
of hostages in Iran, The one below the Iranian story deals with
a drug case. There are other articles on this newspaper's front
page, painting a grim scene about the world around us. The
editors, though, were considerate and put two color pictures, each
dealing with a Christmas story, on the same page.
Anne Murray, the country music singer, had a hit last year call-
ed A Little Good News . The song is about her wishes to hear
some good news for a change rather than the usual bad, good
news such as ". . . and everybody loved everybody everybody
in the good ol' U. S. A." Her wishes are idealistic—but I believe
that more good news than bad news is possible.
This year as editor of the Southern Accent, I have attempted
to spread a little good news. I made it my duty to look for the
positive aspects of this school that you were not aware of. I
searched for general information not related to this school that
was light in nature. If the bad news was important enough for
everyone to know, however, then I printed it. But there hasn't
been much of it anyway. Last year my campaign motto was "For
a Paper You Can Be Proud Of. . ." Then the first editorial for
the Accent was also about being proud, but being proud for many
aspects of the school. Most of the news about Southern College
that we have brought to you has been about something you can
be proud of, and that is good news.
In this our last issue of 1984, we bring you more articles about
Southern College and its students. If this issue should help you
remember something about this school year, let it be that the first
half of 1 984-85 had more positive aspects about it than negative.
The good sometimes just takes a little longer to find. And this
fact can be a commentary about the world in general. It isn't as
grim all the time as the papers make it out to be. The outlook
on the world just depends on one's view of it.

PARENTS APPRECIATE SUPPORT
Dear Faculty and Students of
Southern College:
We are still searching for the
words to express our profound
thanks to you all for every ex-
pression of sympathy. Your
cards and letters bring us so
much comfort, and please
know that every one will be sav-
ed and read again and again.
For you that made the long trip
here for Scott's funeral, we are
so grateful.
Each of us that knew Scott
feels a "special" memory for a
"special" person that we had to
say goodbye to in October.
The many letters and cards
have added another memory to
keep with us throughout our
lives. The constant theme that
"Scott mattered" in your lives
will constantly keep his
memory alive in our lives.
We feel honored to have so
many of you reflect so positive-
ly on your association with
Scott. It is a living memorial to
his way of life and message he
carried each day. As many of
you said, "Scott lived life to the
fullest", always with a smile,
but as importantly, he shared
that philosophy with everyone
he could. He had the strength
of character to influence others
and we can use those ex-
periences to be better people in
our day-to-day living.
We want you all to know
how much Scott loved Southern
College. We realize how many
wonderful friends he had there,
and we thank you for your
friendship. He spoke often this
year that though he missed
home, he was still happy there
and having a good year.
Scott was a wonderful son
and brother. He brought us so
much joy and happiness and we
are so proud of him. It has been
said that:
Some people come into our
lives and quickly go.
Some stay for awhile and leave
footprints on our hearts,
And we are never, ever the
We look forward with bless-
ed hope to that great Resurrec-
tion morning when once again
our family can be complete.
Most Sincerely,

Reflections
Christians Are Just Forgiven
Melvin Campbell
I have little or no use for
messages on bumpers or tee
shirts! I would like to give
messages to the world either of
my religious faith or politics in
more subtle manner. Now
mind you, I do not fault one's
belief system, but 1, in general,
do not care for it to be written
e shirts or bumper stickers
for me to read. Yet once in a
while there comes along a
thought glued to a bumper that
; lots of value. For me that
:e in a while has been once
n my lifetime-which by the
way encompasses the entire
listory of bumper stickers.
The message was simple,
written in blue, glued to the
left-hand side of the rear
bumper— "Christians are not
perfect; they are just forgiven."
When I read that on a bumper
iticker of the car ahead I almost
lonked without having been
o do so. Whoever thought
)f that short phrase must have
in a theologian, although I
sure that the originator
uld immediately give both a
tten and oral disclaimer to
such a title.
Allow me to digress for a
moment. Being a theologian, or
I should say admitting to being
one, can be very hazardous to
one's well being. In fact,
theologians are an endangered
species at the present time in
conservative religious com-
munities. By theologians I refer
to those who have formal train-
ing in ways to think about God.
the
of
theologians as well, but we just
don't like to admit to such a ti-
tle. Yet we all theologize all the
time, usually functionally but
seldom formally.
I side track easily—let me get
back to the message--"Chris-
tians are not perfect; they are
just forgiven "-which I think is
a very profound theological
concept.
Indeed this may be the very
thing that sets off Christians
from non-Christians-
forgiveness. We all know, at
least I have a pretty good idea,
that Christians are not perfect.
Unfortunately, all Christians
are not forgiven either, which
I suppose, makes them Chris-
tians in name only. Indeed if
you are in Christ you are a new
creature and to me that involves
being forgiven.
I think that we are afraid of
forgiveness! I really do. There
is always the notion that if
forgiveness is too easy then one
will go out and sin again and
again only to be forgiven again
and again. Will repeated sins be
forgiven again and again? I will
allow the Scriptures to speak
for themselves on that point.
The Scriptures certainly do not
condone a sinful life, but they
do give the assurance that sins
will be forgiven and that is that!
To think that forgiveness comes
cheaply is not to understand the
forgiveness of God and the en-
tire plan of salvation including
the death of Jesus. To obtain
forgiveness is such a simple
thing to do or rather to attain
from God. Yet we at times por-
tray God as saying "I forgive
you but. . ." I think that Jesus'
dealing with Mary is a model of
forgiveness for us. Christ told
Mary that her sins were
forgiven— it was an uncondi-
tional statement. He also told
her to go and sin no more, but
that exhortation for the future
had nothing to do with the
forgiveness of her past sins.
Nor may have it erased the
social, physical, and emotional
consequences of her sins. But
never mind, she was sinless
before God. And that was good
news for Mary.
I mentioned before that we
are afraid of being forgiven. I
am not quite sure as to the
reason. But it may be tied up
with the idea that once
forgiveness has taken place we
are free. This freedom then
means that we can go about sin-
ning willy-nilly and always ex-
pect to be forgiven again. The
idea of a church full of carnal
Christians frightened those of
us who run churches. So the
"you are forgiven but. . ." doc-
trine continues in our thinking.
Yet it is this very mental
freedom of having sins forgiven
without any reservations on the
part of God of deeds on our
part that sets the Christian
apart in this world and the
A few months ago I was driv-
ing the car to Chattanooga,
contemplating forgiveness
when the concept seemed to
come home in full force that I
was forgiven, and since this was
the case I was free. In fact I
shouted it out loud right there
in the car on the other side of
Missionary Ridge. Here is what
I said: "I'M FREE, I'M
FREE!" I said it twice with the
exclamation mark. No matter
what other people thought or
surmised or speculated or voted
or gossiped, I was free and
forgiven. Or rather I was
forgiven and then free.
No, I have not gone out and
purposely left a trail of sins to
be enjoyed and then forgiven.
But I have been thinking a lot
more about the life, death, and
resurrection of Jesus and what
forgiveness. I really can't quite
figure out just exactly how it all
works, but I am accepting it
and enjoying freedom.
By the way, if you find any
of those "Christians are not
perfect; they are just forgiven"
bumper stickers, I would like
two of them. One for the
bumper of the car and the other
for the inside on the dash. It is
one thought that merits oft-
thinking.

■ Boskind White Presents Workshop On Bulimarexia
I Bulimarexia was the subject
I of a one-day workshop held
I this week at Southern College
I of Seventh-day Adventists.
I Dr. Marlene Boskind White,
lof Freeville, New York, spoke
■ Tuesday (November 27) to both
■students and guests for the
■presentations sponsored by the
fctudent Health Service in
Cooperation with Student Ser-
vices. Dr. White earned her
Ph.D. in counseling at Cornell
University in 1977.
As a practicing
psychotherapist, Dr. White has
been involved in research and
treatment of eating disorders
for more than seven years. She
has published a number of ar-
ticles on this subject as well as
co-authoring a book, Bulimar-
exia: The Binge/Purge Cycle.
Dr. White discussed the trend
of this increasing problem.
"The fact that 95 percent of in-
dividuals with eating disorders
are female has much to do with
the relevant cultural and
psychosocial pressures that are
put on young women today,"
she said. "Women are expected
to be skinnier and to be able to
fit into the style of clothing
worn today. Only a small
percentage of women can look
like the models without being
anorexic.
Many women have discover-
ed purging to be an easy way to
control their weight, without
realizing the adverse effects it
plays on the whole body, accor-
ding to Dr. White. She outlin-
ed three levels of Bulimarexia.
Most women personally af-
fected see this initially as just
another weight control
They only purge on
where they have
overeaten to the feeling of
discomfort.
The next stage is more severe.
Food becomes their central
focus in life. They become ir-
responsible. Gorging
themselves and then purging
becomes an everyday thing
when they realize they can get

New York City Has Everything!
A Student's Experience in the Big Apple
D
La Ronda Curtis
Art? Me take Art? I don't
know anything about Art! You
say we get to go to Washington
D.C. and New York City?
Where do 1 sign up for this
class?
Until Thanksgiving vacation,
1984, 1 had been exposed to
very little art. I do remember
being dragged through a Van
Gogh museum in Amsterdam
once, but I had no idea who he
was. No I don't want to spend
all this time proving to you that
i was really ignorant on this
subject; I think you get the
point. What I do want to get
across to you is that I am not
quite as ignorant now because
I took "Art Appreciation" and
found that art can be in-
teresting. Now I wish that I
could go back to Amsterdam
and check out that Van Gogh
museum again!
On the night of November
18, our art class loaded on the
bus. We all said goodby to
family and friends, and asked
them to remember us during
Thanksgiving dinner. Everyone
on the bus was excited and the
noise level was quite high for
the first fifty miles, then the
overhead lights gradually fad-
ed and everyone slept or rested
uncomfortably. 1 managed to
sleep pretty well, and it seemed
like no time had passed when
we were in Washington, D.C.
We all looked pretty charm-
ing after being on the bus all
night, so we showered at
Takoma Park Academy and
rushed off to our first museum
tour. We were only going to be
in Washington, D.C, for six
hours, so there was no wasting
time! Since we were scheduled
for two museums, the Hirsh-
horn and the National Gallery
of Art, during that short stay,
we really got a good taste of
what we would experience each
day on the trip. The other days,
however, were not so packed
with travels and museums. We
had plenty of time to see
anything we wanted to see in
New York City.
As we visited each museum,
I began to recognize some of
the names that our teacher, Mr.
Garren, had told us about. It
started to get exciting, because
I felt like I was learning
something. Now Mr. Garren,
he is quite the professional New
York City Tourist. The art
group has been going to New
York for fourteen years, and he
has only missed two of those
years. Whenever I wasn't sure
what to do, I would stick with
him, because he was always
taking groups out to do
something interesting.
One of the things that 1
found most fascinating in New
York City was the variety of
people. If one would stand in
Grand Central Station, he
would see just about every type
of person come through in a
matter of minutes. A lot of the
New Yorkers were very friend-
ly and helpful to us when they
saw us with subway map spread
out (typical tourist) and a look
of confusion on our faces. In
fact, once they got to talking to
us, it was not easy to break off
the conversations.
There were some sights that
were not so pleasant, and these
were the looks on the faces of
the poor people, especially the
street people. Seeing people liv-
ing in those conditions made
me very thankful for the life
that I have. It made my major
problems seem like nothing.
Well, we did see a lot be-
tween museums, but the
museums were just as in-
teresting as the rest. If I had to
choose my favorite museum, I
would have to say it was the
Cloisters. It was not the typical
art gallery. The building is not
crowded into the city like all the
others. It was more like touring
through a castle than a
museum. I really liked the
Metropolitan Museum of Art,
too. It had an enormous selec-
tion of Near Eastern Art, in-
cluding the temple of Dendur
from Egypt. Then there was the
Frick Collection. This collec-
tion was displayed in an actual
house or I should say mansion.
I think we all tried to imagine
what it would be like to live in
this house, but the dreaming
couldn't last long, since we
needed to take notes on the
displayed art. It really is dif-
ficult to say that just one place
was my favorite.
Our evenings were not spent
sitting around the YMCA, our
home for the week. Everyone
found things to do that in-
terested their individual tastes.
Some went to basketball or
hockey games, some to ballets,
some to Broadway plays, and
some enjoyed a brisk walk
around Times Square or the
ride to the top of the World
Trade Center. There was
enough to keep us very tired at
night when we sank into our
beds.
One of the most memorable
things I did in New York City
was going to the Macy's
Thanksgiving Day Parade. It
sure was cold out there, but I'm
glad that I did it once because
I doubt I will ever get a chance
to do it again.
Thanks to the hard work and
experience of Mr. Garren, we
were all informed of the best
places to go in our free time. It
was impossible for one person
to see everyting, but we manag-
ed to see quite a bit. We even
had pizza in Little Italy,
shopped the streets
Chinatown. New York iM
everything!
Sabbath morning we met in I
St. Bartholomew's Church, 1th
a beautiful old church that I
seemed quite appropriate for I
art students to worship in. The I
stained glass windows and the I
basic architecture were an ii
spiration to us as our Sabbai
School teacher, Dr. R0
Springett, pointed out their I
splendor. We had a special I
guest who lives in New York 1
City tell us about tb
ministry that the Seventh-daH
Adventists are doing in the ci- 1
ty. Overall it was a wonderful I
way to spend our last morning
in the Big Apple.
By Saturday night, we were
ready to head back to quiet
Collegedale Our spirts were
beginning to me1 u\v hile we
reflected on all the things we
had done and seen m a week's
time (not to mention our ex-
haustion). It was a worthwhile j
trip for me because I received ]
school credit; I sot to visit a
place I'd never been before; 1
learned about different cul- {
tures; I learned about different |
people; and I know much more I
about ART!

tion. Actually, "formal" isn't
really an accurate description,
From first grade through high
school Diana has studied in
Ethiopia, Lebanon, Cyprus,
the U.S., Austria, Kenya. The
majority of her schoolwork and
her graduation in May of 1983
have been through Home Study
International, headquartered in
Takoma Park, Maryland. Be-
tween wars in Jordan and
Lebanon, and evacuations to
Ethiopia and Cyprus, Diana
developed part of her unique
outlook, "Sure, I was scared
for my life. But it turned out to
be a blessing. I realized my ut-
ter helplessness. When you
recognize that being scared does
no good, you depend on the
^ Lord in a very real way."
™ Diana completed 8th grade
and part of 9th grade in Atlan-
ta, then headed out for Kenya
with her family. There she tack-
led Algebra, Literature,
Geometry, History, and typing
all by herself. Imagine what the
postal system may have thought
about the frogs and grasshop-
pers she had to dissect for
Biology!
Diana studied at a German-
speaking school in Austria for
11th grade, then finished 12th
by home study. Throughout she
made straight A's except for
one B in English Literature.
Diana has been chosen as
Home Study International's
Graduate of the Year. She has
also been recommended for
recognitions as Graduate of the
Year by the national Home
Study Council, an association
of 75 accredited member
schools in the United States.
For this she will receive an
expense-paid trip to
Washington, D.C. to attend a
Congressional reception at the
Capitol.
When asked how she felt
about receiving the award,
Diana said at first she felt
shocked and underselling, then
excited. Also at the Capitol
reception will be Diana's
parents, her senator, and

library."
FM90.5 WSMC is funded by
four sources: Southern College;
its licensee, the Corporation for
Public Broadcasting; program
underwriters; and listener sup-
port. "It's really exciting-a
special thrill— to place a great
deal of trust in our listeners and
volunteers and see them come
through beyond what we ask-
ed," Perry says.
Additional support from the
station's listeners is accepted at
any time during the year. In-

Ex-cons likely to be cons again
The Justice Department stated Sunday that of the prisoners
releasd from prison more than a quarter of them return to prison
within 2 years and nearly a third are back within 3 years. They
received these figures after a study of 14 selected states. Infor-
mation from nine of these states showed the biggest majority
returned during the second half of the first year of release. The
Bureau of Justice Statistics stated it is "Suggesting the need for
maximum post release correctional support" during that period.
Gambler involved with drug ring and prostitution
William Condon Graham, a gambler who was shot to death
2 months ago by his ex-wife, wsa involved in more than gambl-
ing. The 67-year-old professional gambler was also invloved in
organized prostitution and is suspected in having ties to a drug
ring called "The Company." At the time of his death, Graham
was under a Memphis federal indictment on charges of extortion
and arson in an alleged conspiracy to destroy competing vending
machine businesses in west Tennessee. His criminal record span-
ned about 20 years.
Deficit on Top
Treasury Secretary Donald Regan and two Republican Senate
leaders agreed Sunday that reducing the deficit, including cuts in
defense spending, must take precedene over tax-system overhaul
when Congress grapples with federal finances next year. Appear-
ing on This Week With David Brinktey on ABC-TV, Regan said
"Deficit reduction is by far the most serious problem facing the
administration", and the Congress Senator Leader Robert Dole
stated on NBC-TV's Meet the Press,"We don't want to throw
out a tax bill on the floor until we've had some, action."
Gas Leak
Poisonous gas spewed from an underground storage tank in

For those of you who
expecting the new sport's com-
mentary, Hefty's Bag, there has
been a slight change in plans
due to the holiday season. This
week we look at the Top 10
Women in volleyball.
But before that, I want to
answer one question that I have
been asked all week which is,
"Why are you doing your com-
mentary on this subject?"
There are two very simple
reasons why. First, 1 feel that
women do not get enough
recognition in sports at
Southern College. Secondly, to
shoot down the expanded egos
of the
off my chest, here's my top ten
women in volleyball.
1 . Loretta Messer
2. Robin McClure
3. Darla Jarrett
4. Melanie Boyd
5. Raqual Revis
6. Patty Wycoff
7. Audrey Gibson
8. Karen Schwotzer
9. Pauline James
10. Nancy Holness
In ranking these top ten
women, I discovered something
very interesting. The top two,
Messer and McClure, played on
their public high school volley-
ball team. In view of women's
"wanna be" sports status in sports, in some of our
schools, is there a lesson to be

ticipation in our sports pro-
gram. Remember this girls,

that there are many fine women
athletes here and are every bit

Volleyball
Tournament
J. Randolph Thuesdee
Steve Carlson's team, the top
seed in the tournament, emerg-
ed victorious in SC's 3-man
volleyball special on Sunday.
Carlson's squad of himself,
Alex Lamourt, and Bob
Folkenberg enjoyed success
throughout the day as they
went undefeated.
Carlson began the day with
a forfeit victory over Reg Rice's
team, then defeated Bryan
Davis trio of Davis, Wayne
Goffin, and Dave Nottleson
15-6 and 15-4.
Carlson then went on to
down Rod Hartle's team 15-14
and 15-11. Hartle then dumped
Tim Tullock's team 15-5, 13-15
and 15-3 to reach the finals and
a rematch with Carlson.
Hartle, with teammates Fred
Roscher and Lori Roscher were
disapouited, though, as Carlson
earned the championship by
trouncing Hartle 15-6 and 15-7.
Hartle was the number 2 seed

SIGI 1984-85 is Updated
November, 1984
Computerized information
on thirteen career options has
been added to the 1984 updated
version of SIGI (pronounced
"Siggy")--the System of In-
teractive Guidance and Infor-
mation. Available on campus in
the [career planning office...]
SIGI is a career decision-
making and information system
for students that becomes more
valuable each year because of
its annual updates.
This year SIGI has added
several emerging occupations
such as INFORMATION SCI-
ENTIST, a future-oriented oc-
cupation applying computers to
the knowledge explosion;
NURSE-MIDWIFE, a modern,
specialized offshoot of nursing,
established to help prospective
mothers and their families have
their babies by the latest,
natural methods; NUCLEAR
MEDICINE TECHNOLO-
GIST; ART THERAPIST and
MUSIC THERAPIST (long-
time career interests of art and
I music students); and others.
This year you can also check
out three medical specialties
new to SIG1-RADIOLOGIST,
ANESTHESIOLOGIST and
PSYCHIATRIST. These oc-
cupations are in increasing de-
mand and are among the
highest paid medical specialties.
This year you can investigate
the difficult route to becoming
a FOREIGN SERVICE OF-
FICER or learn how to use
your language and business
skills as an INTERNA-
TIONAL TRADE SPECIAL-
IST-^ rapidly growing area of
activity of American business.
COMMERCIAL CREDIT
MANAGER, HISTORIAN,
and PRINTING CRAFT-
SWORKER round out the list
to thirteen.
You can also find out what
has happened to the high-
deamed occupations of a year
or so ago--COMPUTER PRO-
GRAMMER, PETROLEUM
ENGINEER, or the once ultra-
desirable careers of LAWYER
or PHYSICIAN. You can
check for increased salaries, or
look towards the future supply
and demand. Every occupation
has been checked for salary and
outlook changes since a year
ago.
These important additions
and those added last year-
ROBOTICS TECHNICIAN,
COMPUTER ENGINEER,
MARKETING/SALES MAN-
AGER, MEDICAL OFFICE
ASSISTANT, PODIATRIST
COMPUTER REPAIR
TECHNICIAN and others, can
give you a range of up-to-date
choices not available in any
other computerized career
guidance system.
It is worth noting that all the
SIGI occupations have been
chosen to give a wide represen-
tation of career fields of interest
to college students, college-
bound students, returning
students, and to those who have
already earned a degree. They
cover over 300 possibilities-
including six computer occupa-
tions; over 20 business or sales
titles; 13 engineering fields; in-
numerable allied health
specialities; scientific and
technical fields; and many per-
forming arts, design, and jour-
nalism options.
In addition, the SIGI system
teaches a career decision-
making method that you can
return to over and over again.
You can also use the values-
clarification and decision-
making method to explore-on
your own-occupations of
special interest to you.
SIGI gives you the oppor-
tunity to compare three occupa-
tions at a time, so that the
diferences in income possibil-
ities, outlook, security, educa-
tion needed, and more can be
readily contrasted side by side.
In fact, you can ask 28 ques-
tions for any occupation and
receive detailed, up-to-date
answers to every question. You
can check the courses and pro-
gram of study you need to take
and then decide what seems to
be the best decision for you. An
advisor is available to discuss
your plans with you.
If you have never used SIGI ,
you should try it. If you have
tried it before, come try it
again, You are changing and
growing. So is SIGI!

"Finally when this habit

In a recent survey appearing

Senate Meets for Last Time
Sheila Elwin
The last senate meeting of the
semester was held Monday
night at 8:00.
Senator Yapshing's devo-
tional was followed by the S.A.
Treasurer, who informed the
Senate that most of the depart-
ments are remaining on or
under budget and things look
good on the whole.
After a break for the year-
book picture, taken by Pete
Prins, President Shim presented
a report from the AIA presi-
dent. The latter wishes to know
S.C.'s general opinion about
intercollegiate sports. Because
of the great expense and travel-
ling involved, Shim will obtain
more information from AIA
before the constituents are
polled.
Next, a review of the S.A.
Constitution brought about
changes in the pre- requisites for
the position of senator. Sug-
gested is that a student may not
run for senate unless he has ob-
tained at least three hours of
on-campus credit from South-
ern College or five hours of
credit from another college.
This will be brought to the stu-
dent body for vote at the next
S.A. chapel.
Senator Gershon, represen-
ting the Orlando campus,
graduates in December and will
be leaving. The responsibility of
filling a vacated seat belongs to
the president, so Shim ap-
pointed Ed Santana to precinct
19 for second semester.
After a reminder about
voting for Senator of the Year
by Chairman Palsgrove, Senate
adjourned at approximately
9:30.

Chattanooga Boys Choir
Sings At Southern
College Saturday
The Chattanooga Boys Choir
wilt be heard in concert at
Southern College of Seventh-
day Adventists on Saturday
night, January 19, at 8 pm.
The program, a part of the
Artist-Adventure Series, will
take place in the Physical
Education Center.
The versatile group sings
from a repertoire which in-
cludes timeless classics and
Broadway show tunes. "Chat-
tanooga Choo Choo" has
become its trademark.
The Concert Choir is made
up of about 50 boys under the
direction of Everett O'Neal. By
the time a boy becomes part of
the Concert Choir, he has had
at least three years of musical
training, moving up from the
Orientation Choir to the Train-
ing Choir and then to the
Preliminary Choir.
The complete choir provides
musical training for more than
150 boys, between the ages of
8 and 12, from 55 schools-
public, private, and parochial.
Choir members are selected by
individual audition and
rehearse twice a week. Each
boy also attends the week-long
summer music training camp
held each year at The Universi-
ty of the South, Sewanee.
A charter member of the
Allied Arts of Chattanooga
Boys Choir, the choir was
founded in 1954. Not affiliated
with an instutition, the Chat-
tanooga Boys Choir is in-
dependently managed and
financed as a community non-
profit organization.
Admission is by season pass,
or tickets at the door: $3 for
adults, $2 for senior citizens
and children under 12, and
$7.50 for family. Students may
get in free.
Ihysical Installation of Organ Completed
Mori Selby
■ Opus 26, the long-awaited,
Handmade Brombaugh organ,
B now standing in the sanctuary
■jf the Collegedale church. Its
physical installation is complete
■^th most of the largest pipes in
place.
■ John Brombaugh, the master
craftsman who designed and
built the Opus 26, arrived on
campus January 10 to begin the
voicing and tuning process.
Tuning refers to adjusting the
correct musical pitch or con-
sonance of each pipe. Voicing
refers to adjusting the quality
of the sound produced. Each
pipe will blend with all the
others in the same rank of
pipes.
Though voicing each in-
dividual pipe is a process that
will take approximately six
months to complete, Mr.
Brombaugh is working very
hard to have one rank of pipes
ready to play for the Sabbath
services on January 19. Mr.
Brombaugh will be introduced
to the congregation at that
time.
During the coming months,
Mr. Brombaugh will also be
voicing the Opus 27, a smaller

The Death of a Good Year
As 1985 came upon me I was struck by the old line "Happy
New Year" and other seemingly emotionless phrases. People
seemed to have a grand old time writing "1985" on their checks
or on the top of their letters. Ministers were happy to be able to
preach on a subject which they had more than enough material
to write on. They graced the bulletins with titles like "How to
Have a Great Year in 1985" and "Making Resolutions You Can
Keep." I watched how the people in Time Square could hardly
contain themselves until the clock struck that magical time and
they entered into a "New Year." Even the most sober sort of in-
dividual put on a smile for the stroke of midnight.
I pondered all the hoopla and wondered why people were so
happy, even eager to see 1984 pass from the scene? As I write,
I look at a caption of one of our affiliate papers that reads "A
Last Look at 1984." Why is everyone so willing to let 365 days
move behind them as history? Has it disappeared from sight?
1 suppose that there are a number of reasons why the events
of 1984 are now thought of by most people as history. In any
person there is a sense of pride that needs to be bolstered. A whole
year of fond memories can also bring with it thoughts of disaster:
a death, a business failure, a divorce. An individual will sort out
those memories that bring meaning to his mind and those that
are to be looked at as events to be forgotten. Thus, a boyfriend
may try to convince his girlfriend that a blot on his record was
something that happened way back in 1984, while in the same
breath he reminds her of the wonderful time they had three weeks
ago (also in 1984).
But what satisfaction does it bring us to know we have entered
into another year, one which will no doubt bring us similar ex-
periences? It is all part of man's attempt to bury his past. He can
once again lift his head with pride on January 1 because he has
a clean slate. I believe, however, that the great minds of the past
would tell us that our problems, failures, and hardships are to
be met and solved as they come. Thus, when January 1 comes
around, it won't be just a time when unresolved problems can
be put in the past, but the previous year will be looked back on
as a learning experience-one you don't have to be ashamed of.
I like 1984. When I hear someone say "Look to the future,
forget 1984!" I think they've just killed a perfectly good year.

IS IT A REVERSE?
Dear Editor,
On the campus of Southern
College, there's a weekend
designated for the ladies to ask
the men out for a date. The
purpose of this weekend is not
only to acquaint oneself with
new people, but also to give the
guys an opportunity to be ask-
ed out, instead of the guys ask-
ing out the girls. Also, an exam-
ple can be set to the young men
as to how the ladies desire to be
treated. "Reverse Weekend" is
an inappropriate name for this
social event, because the male
species are lax about asking the
female sex out on dates.
Here are some examples of
how a young lady treats a guy
during Reverse Weekend with
the expectancy to be treated in
the same manner. "May I help
you with your coat?" the lady
inquired politely. "I'll take care
of the check," said the young
lady demandingly, yet softly.
"What would you be interested
in doing after the game?" ques-
tioned the woman. A time for
what makes a
reverse weekend. Ladies
the young men in
they desire to be treated.
Reverse is a change from the
norm, but under normal cir-
cumstances, most of the
Southern College men fail to
treat the women in a ladylike
manner. The guys seldom
realize that a small act means
alot in a woman's book. Just
the pushing under of a chair
makes her feel womanly, and it
also gives her a sense of worth.
Even being polite when around
friends makes a young lady feel
special and not like one of the
guys.
Because of a guys inability to
ask a girl out on a date, the girl
then feels obligated to do so.
If the young ladies usually
ask the young men out, then
where does the term "reverse"
come in? Reverse Weekend is
surely an inproper name for
Southern College's designated
weekend.
Sincerely,
Dana Austin

A way From Campus
Kidnap Victim Rescued ^
Kidnap victim Amy McNiel was rescued from her abductors Sun-
day after being held for 45 hours. She was taken captive by
gunmen Friday morning on her way to school. One hundred thou-
sand dollars was demanded for her ransom. She was rescued by
Texas Rangers' John Dendy and Howard Alfred in a final
shootout near Saltille, northeast of Dallas.
Train Derailment
An express train in Ethiopia derailed white crossing a curving
bridge. One relief worker quoted rail officials as saying that the
engineer apparently failed to reduce speed around the curve, caus-
ing the seven passenger cars to derail. Four hundred eighteen
passengers were killed and 559 were injured. An official also stated
that those injured are believed to be in serious condition.
Mining Company Guilty
The Grundy Mining Company pleaded guilty for violating the
mine safety law which resulted in the December 1981 underground
explosion killing 13 workers. John MacCoon, the assistant U.S.
attorney, delivered a critical assessment of Grundy Mining's
failure to meet safety standards. MacCoon said that omission of
required ventillation partitions contributed to the building up of
methane gas that was ignited by a cigarette lighter.
Prison Complaint
Dr. Seymour Halleck, a professor of psychiatry, said that the
prison in the Nashville Unit is the worst he has ever seen in terms
of lack of availability of exercise of human contact. Halleck in-
vestigated the prison after a condemned prisoner sent a complaint
to the federal judge about undercooked meals, leaking toilets, and
the large amount of roaches. The professor's testimony was
followed by testimony from an inmate on Death Row. The in-
mate described his cell as being a place not big enough to do jum-
ping jacks. "The prison food," he said, "is so undercooked that
blood can be seen on the bones of the meat."
Long-Term Aid to Ethiopia
Cu.ju.ufrrnTUg-Uefl-
WASHINGTON-In addi-
tion to airlifting emergency
relief supplies to starving
displaced persons in drought-
stricken Ethiopia, the Adventist
Development and Relief Agen-
cy has started a long-term pro-
gram to help Ethiopians
reclaim their future by growing
food supplies on irrigated land,
according to Mario Ochoa,
ADRA deputy director.
"ADRA has voted $350,000
to underwrite plans for a three-
year program," Ochoa said.
"An ADRA agricultural expert
is in Ethiopia surveying
possibilities for a teaching pro-
gram. The costs will be tremen-
dous, but the potential is even
greater if we help the Ethiopian
people to be self-sufficient over
the long term.
"As important as the current
emergency ' relief efforts are,
what will happen over the long
term, after the plight of the
millions of starving and
malnourished Ethiopians drops
from the evening news?"
Ochoa said ADRA is an "in-
tegral part of the international
relief program that is rushing
aid to Ethiopia's displaced per-
sons. We've already airlifted
nearly 60 tons of tents,
blankets, medicines and
clothing worth nearly $500,000.
We're also shipping five large
trucks and three trailers from
Germany with 100 tons of high-
protein biscuits and dry milk
donated by people in the
Netherlands.
"Currently we're feeding
about 30,000 people, primarily
small children and their
mothers, at three locations,"
Ochoa said. "We're s'training
our financial resources to the
limit, but the people keep
streaming in, often sick with
pneumonia, tuberculosis, diar-
rhea and other diseases. The
photographs in the news-
magazines are for real.
"Some estimates put at least
six million people on the brink
of starvation in 12 of Ethiopia's
14 provinces," Ochoa con-
tinued. "The impact of that
number is hard to understand.
It is the equivalent of the
populations of New Hamp-
shire, Montana, Nevada, North
and South Dakota, Delaware,
Vermont, Wyoming and
Alaska. One figure puts the
death rate from starvation at
1,500 per day.
"As mind-boggling as the
current situation is, next year
may be even worse. This year's
rains have been inadequate to
grow crops for next year in a
large part of Ethiopia," Ochoa
said.

Take a Walk
Ion the Biology Trail
The College Bowl
| Michael J. Bat list one
"Jack and Jill went up the
Ihill,
|To fetch a pail of water. . ."
Or so the legend has it. But
Iwho are we kidding? As college
"ktudents, we have a pretty good
fdea why both Jack and Jill
iscended that mythical incline
r one pail of water! Had they
been students at Southern Col-
lege, the destination of their
trek would possibly have been
e Biology Trail, which has the
feputation of being one of the
pore romantic spots on
Impus.
1 Embraced by the ridges of
Vhite Oak Mountain.the Trail
s constructed in 1979 by im-
proving an old fire road. The
Department removed
Dogs and fallen trees, placed
■teps over rough terrain, dug
pitches to control erosion, and
: been responsible for
. Much of the
recent labor has been done by
Julio Narvaez, who spent last
semester clearing out summer
brush, re-digging drainage dit-
ches, repairing steps, and
destroying yellow-jacket nests.
The diversity of plant life is
typical of the Southern forests,
and Jack and Jill may well go
up the hill to fetch an Acer
leucoderme in order to com-
plete a lab assignment for
Systematic Field Botany.
In addition to students and
teachers, regional wildlife are
attracted to the flora surroun-
ding the trail; forest inhabitants
include squirrels, chipmunks,
rabbits, raccoons, opossums,
foxes, and minks, as well as
many species of birds which
nest here.
The path is easily accessible
--the trailhead lies just across
the road behind Hackman Hall
--so if ever you find yourself in
the mood for nature study, a
romantic walk, or just some
reflective solitude, then take a
hike-on the Biology Trail.
Attention
Writers!
The Southern Writers' Club
will be sponsoring a Writers'
Workshop on Thursday,
January 24, starting at 1:30 in
Wright Hall, Conference Room
A.
Dr. Richard Jackson and Dr.
Luke Wallin, both professors
of English at the University of
Tennessee, Chattanooga, will
critique the works of students
and other interested in-
dividuals. Thursday evening
will include an informal supper
meeting and a reading in the
Student Center Lounge.
Everyone is invited, but anyone
interested in having a work
critiqued must have it to the
English Department no later
noon Monday, January 21. For
more details, contact Mrs. Ann
Clark in the English Depart-
ment or George Turner.
The College Bowl began this
past Monday, January 14, with
four of the newest teams "but-
ting heads" so as to advance to
the next round. In the first
match, Kathryn Park's team
edged Mitzi Acosta's by a score
of 150-140. The second match
saw Shelly Duncan's team com-
ing on strong at the end to beat
Liz Cruz's group, 235-135.
The College Bowl is an
academic competition, in which
four-man teams compete with
each other in matches, fielding
questions from the humanities,
and trivia.
This year's competition dif-
fers from last year's in a few
aspects. Firstly, four more
teams were added, bringing the
total up from eight to twelve.
Secondly, whereas in 1984, a
team not answering the toss-up
question still had an opportuni-
ty to answer the bonus question
Begins Play
if its opponent had responded {^fc
incorrectly, this year only the ^^
team answering the toss-up
question gets a shot at the
bonus. Finally, the matches
earlier in the week were well at-
tended; more people watched
Monday's games than the
amount who watched last
year's final.
In Monday's first game
Park's team answered a ques-
tion with less than a minute left
to go in regulation and with the
score tied 140-140. She ad-
vances to the next round and
will play Stan Hobb's group,
last year's champions. The se-
cond match had Duncan's team
forge to an early 90-0, only to
fall behind 120-1 10. Then in the
last three minutes they
answered 3 questions con-
secutively making the final
score 235-135.
history Department
Plans Summer Seminar in Costa Rica and Mexico
Students who are looking for
a unique way to earn credit in
history should investigate the
recently announced travel
seminar to Costa Rica and
Mexico, July 1-25. Dr. Floyd
Greenleaf, professor of history,
will conduct the excursion.
Spaces for ten students are
available.
: Called "Central America and
jMexico: Crucible of Change,"
jthe seminar focuses on revolu-
tionary change in the United
States' nearest neighbors to the
South. The seminar will yield
three hours of credit under
either HIST 295 or HIST 495,
the department's directed study
courses which also include
credit for travel.
Both sections apply to
general education and to a ma-
minor in history. Par-
ticipants may opt for either
upper division credit,
the principal difference being
that upper division hours will
also fulfill the general educa-
tion writing requirement.
Seminar participants will
divide their time almost equal-
ly between actual meetings and
touring historic, geographic,
and cultural sites in Mexico and
Costa Rica. On the schedule are
meetings at the United States
embassies in Mexico City and
San Jose, Costa Rica.
The seminar begins on July
^ when the group gathers in
fly to Monterrey,
palla;
M,
meetings start the i
ilCO.
: day :
Montemorelos. After a day of
sightseeing in Monterrey on
July 8, the group will fly to
Mexico City for six days of pro-
bing the historic and cultural
richness of Mexico's capital and
surroundings. Among the sites
to be visited are the pre-
columbian pyramids at
Teotihuacan and the floating
gardens in Xochimilco.
On July 15 the seminar flies
to Costa Rica for more
meetings at the Adventist
Center for Higher Education-
known as CADES-in Alajuela,
near San Jose, the national
capital. Besides one of the most
pleasant climates in this
hemisphere, Costa Rica also
provides beautiful scenery
which students will see during
a half day trip to Irazu, an
11,000 foot volcano that
erupted in the 1960s and
dumped ash all over central
Costa Rica.
Cost for the seminar is
$1400. The price includes
roundtrip air travel from Dallas
to San Jose, sightseing fees,
hotels, food and lodging at the
University of Montemorelos
and CADES, medical in-
surance, and three hours of col-
lege credit. Participants will
buy the two paperbacks re-
quired for the seminar and their
own meals while on the road.
They will also have time for in-
dependent activities.
According to the brochure
explaining the seminar, Dr.
Greenleaf, seminar director,
has made over twenty ln\
to Latin America and the
Caribbean since 1962 and has
devoted his research time to
Seventh-day Adventists in these
regions.
Interested students will find
brochures and applications in
the Student Center, the
Library, and other places on
campus. Dr. Greenleaf is ready
with additional explanations.
If God had wanted
us to see the

J. Randolph Thuesdee
Sitting in my room listening
to my "Frankie Goes To
Hollywood" tape lasrnight, I
suddenly remembered that this
weekend marked the arrival of
Super Bowl XIX. You see, be-
ing from Chicago and being a
Chicago Bears fan from the day
before they beat the Redskins
until midway through the first
half of their loss against San
Francisco, I was quick to
forget.
But, nonetheless, the Super
Bowl Weekend is here, and as
always, we get bombarded by
sportscasters and sportswriters
as to who will win and by how
much. Usually, since the sport-
scasters and sports writers don't
play, they're always wrong.
This year the Miami Dolphins
are playing the San Francisco
49ers, and if you know any
jokes about San Francisco and
Miami, you know that they're
calling this Super Bowl.
Jokes aside, everyone has the
inside track on how the game
will come out. Some feel that
the Miami Dolphins with
quarterback Dan Marino who
has romped through the record
books, will romp all over the
49ers. Others say that his
counterpart, Joe Montana is
the quarterback of the best of-
fense in efficiency and not
necessarily numbers in the
NFL. Thus he'll direct the 49ers
to victory this Sunday. Not
much more can be said about
Marino. He has passed for over
5 ,700 yards and 55 touchdowns
this season. He's got a quick
release, rarely gets sacked, and
owns the ability to make the big
play.
although Montana is never
.entioned in the same breath
with Joe Namath like Marino
is, Montana is efficient and
cool. Anyone who drives a Fer-
rari has got to be cool. Mon-
tana doesn't pile up the number
of yards and touchdowns like
Marino does, but the numbers
on that win column pile up, and
touchdown numbers aren't all
that make a football team. You
have got to have some defense
too. Just ask Dan Fouts. But
then again, Dan Fouts didn't
have the "Killer Bees" on his
team. It has been said that in-
side linebackers Jay Brophy
and Mark Brown must play
well against the run to stop the
49ers offense. But sometimes
those running backs, Wendell
Tyler and Roger Craig can get
into the passing lanes and go
one-on-one with the linebackers
and create some ball movement
to compliment the running
game.
Defense will win this game.
The 49ers have Fred Dean, Jack
Reynolds, Keena Turner and
Dwaine Board as their hard-
hitters, all o£ whom will try to
get to Marino before his
receivers get open. But if they
over-pursue, Marino will have
all evening long to find Mark
Clayton and Mark Duper, who
have caught 30 TD passes bet-
ween them.
Dwight Hicks, Ronnie Lott,
Carlton Williamson, and Eric
Wright are the men in charge of
stopping the Marks Brothers.
Clayton has 20 TD receptions
and Super Duper, 10. Not to be
forgotten are running back
Tony Nathan and
Jimmy Cefalo and Nat Moore.
The 49er secondary will have to
hit hard early to slow down
Marino's targets.
So who'll win? I don't know,
but some of these people do:
Charles Schnell: "San Fran-
cisco 42 Miami 38. San Fran-
cisco will win because of the ex-
perience of Montana and they
have a running game, whereas
Miami only has the passing of
Marino."
Chris Lang: "Dolphins by 3
because Dan Marino is unstop-
pable, and the 'Killer Bee's' are
back! Miami 35-32."
Tammy Ellis: "I would like
to see San Francisco win but I
think Miami will take it by 3.
Miami: 24-21."
Brad Senska: "San Francisco
will take it by 10. 27-17."
Dean Christman: "Miami by
3'. The Dolphins have the

defense is strong, but I don't
think they can stop Clayton and
Duper consistently. Miami will

Francisco is a better team but
anybody can beat anybody.

Basketball Begins
Steve Martin
Basketball season is under
way with 26 teams playing this
year, divided into "AA", "A",i
"B", and "women" leagues.
AA League is comprised of Five
teams: Mock, Green, Cain,
McFadden, and Acardo. A
League has 9 teams: Davis,
Wurl, Deely, Malone, Hobbs,
Wise, Greve, O'Neal, and
Selby. B League shapes up with
Sutton, Pheirim, Snider, Jones,
and Starbird. And the women
have 6 teams; they are
Klischies, Washington,
McClure, Beardsley, Hilder-
brandt and Green.
Action got under way on
Sunday night with Greve down-
ing Wurl 5145, Tunnell led all
scores with 15 points, and
Folkenberg contributed 13 for
Wurl in a losing cause. In
. Washington
blew out Klischies 51-20.
Sanders and Yapshing each led
their teams with 12 points. In B
League Jones killed Starbird
61-31. J. McElroy pumped in
16 to lead all scorers Monday's
games had. Deely beating Wise
63-50. Waller led Deeley's team
with 14 and Kamieneski hit
crucial freethrows down the
stretch to preserve the win.
O'Neal defeated Davis 71-69.
Freshman Eric Hope drilled 27
points to lead O'Neal's team.
Crone had 19 for the loosers.
On Tuesday Malone got past
Hobbs 66-62; Peets had 21 for
the winner, and Aguilera had
32 in a losing cause. And Sut-
ton defeated Jones 44-35 with
Durocher pouring in 25 points
to lead his team to victory. And
Tuesday night's womens game
had McClure wiping Green
61-35 as Messer led all scorers
with 25 points.
Next week look for the up-
to-date standing and summaries
for each game. Also, the player
of the week in each league will
be announced (to be voted on
by the sport's writers).
years, the two best teams in
football are in the Super Bowl.
Ther is no fluke this year. The
Dolphins and the 49ers have
proved that they are the best
this year. The key to winning
this Super Bowl will not be of-
fense, as everyone is thinking,
but defense. Can San Francisco
stop Marino? Can Miami's sub
par defense that allowed Pitt-
sburgh to score 28 points stop
Montana and company? The
best defense will win this game
and the 49ers have the better of
the two. But still, look for a
high-scoring game with the
game being decided by a field
goal difference as the 49ers
come out on top, 31-28."
David Smith, English: "San
Francisco by 3, 24-21. The
49ers have a strong defense and
have an excellent scrambler for
a quarterback in Montana."
Russell Duerksen: "... the
49ers defense will contain
Marino and Montana's short
yardage plays will prevail in the

This is about a trip. It's a bit
fictitious; it's a bit realistic. It
[I happened awhile ago-about
x weeks after school started...
It was one of those days
hen one feels as though one
vould rather be ahead of
>neself- To get this effect into
ny life, I decided to put all the
work that had to be done at the
noment in a pile at one end of
ny desk. (It was one of those
jiles that takes up the whole
desk, and drains into the top
drawer.) I toddled out to my
r and the next thing I knew
Mr. Ed (my car( and I were
headed for a ride through the
:ountryside on a semi-OK day.
We took off from the park-
ig lot at the speed of time.
)ver the tracks, sweeping right,
i left-bend down and right, I
aw an old familiar mill house.
t seems to me that Grindstone
vlt. was somewhere near by.
Fall-colored leaves gave us a
calico road to drive on, and
they danced in the rearpview
rs--sc'ared awake from a
sleepy, decompositional death.
I hadn't begun to get really
head yet when I passed a
litch-hiker. He had a B\ drawn
his white T-shirt with a
black marker; he had an old
rucksack on his shoulder; he
ras walking backwards and
olding his thumb out-like
hey do.
I stopped. I asked him where
: was going.
He said, "I'm just going.
ion know. . . going."
I said that well that's a coin-
idence because that's what I'm
loing.
)ff we went. We got into
ome territory which was new
e; I didn't recognize
nything.
I asked, "What's your
lame?"
"Bettered Thandead."
"Nice name," I replied.
Iventures ot
"Yea. . . thanks. I'm a
destructuralist. I came here
from Germany awhile back."
And he volunteered to tell me
all kinds of stuff like he thought
cars were a waste of money,
and that, in fact, money was
basically a waste of time-it was
how the leaders of capitalist
governments kept the masses
pacified. He told me I was a
slave of my car. (Mr. Ed didn't
like that; he missed a beat. But
Betterred didn't seem to
notice.) He told me about how
he would prefer to be alive in
Germany under Russian rule
rather than alive and running
around Berlin for an afternoon
with vitreous humor streaming
down his cheeks (paranoid
nuke talk).
I thought about that for a
few minutes, and then said, "If
I didn't have a car, you
wouldn't have a ride." He said
that he was just taking advan-
tage of my state of bondage and
servitude, and besides, he was
not in a hurry to get anywhere.
He felf sorry for me. I didn't
have anything to say for a
while.
Just about the time I was get-
ting ready to feel uncomfor-
table we were waved down by
a man with a broken Grenada.
I stopped and told Betterred to
get in the back. The new man
got in the front seat with his
brief case and pinstripes, and
hands shook all around.
"My name is Mr. Byloe
Selhigh. My friends call me
Wheeler D. I was on my way
when my car blew a hose. . .
Probably time to get rid of it."
(Mr. Ed didn't like that; he
missed a beat. But Mr. didn't
seem to notice.) Mr. Selhigh
patted the dash.
"What did you pay for this
thing?"
"You want to buy it?" It was
a question as much as it was a
°r celestial Cruise
statement that I wasn't going to
tell him. He guessed what I
meant and changed the subject
to what might as well have been
the price of salmon in Canada.
The road was winding along
through all sorts of terrains and
we passed every thing from
four or five Muslim fanatics
making their mark in an abus-
ed A-3 10 Airbus to a black man
from South Africa wearing a
frock and getting a fortune in
prize money (for his
humanitarian efforts) from a
trust fund set up by the man
who invented dynamite.
Mr. Selhigh was telling Bet-
terred about a deal he was
working on which involved the
buying of a large sum or
Duetch Marks from a nameless
bank in Panama and using it to
hire a hundred ton cargo ship
(a Greek owned rustbucket,
manned by Italians, and flying
a Lybian flag) to sail to French
Polynesia and buy bread fruit
to trade with Russians for
vodka on the black market. The
vodka would then be traded to
the Canadians for warped and
knotted fir (and a considerable
amount of hard currency). The
ship would then be scuttled
about two hundred miles off
the coast of Morroco; then
Lloyd's of London would
promptly make good (with
cash) on its insurance policy for
a brand-new 1 50 ton cargo ship
and a payload of clear red-
wood. . . if the guy ever got his
Grenada running, he might pull
it off.
Meanwhile, at a stop sign, a
man asked for a ride. I said,
"What the heck! What's your
name and what do you do for
livelihood?"
As he was getting in, "I'm
Kil A. Komy. I'm basically
unemployed for a while, but I
do some under-the-table work
for The Cousins. They have a
little business doing in Central
America right now, you know,
and I help out."
Mr. Selhigh immediately
started asking vague questions
about Nicaragua and whether
or not the Sandinistas rteed any
redwood. They talked and talk-
ed and from the back Betterred
would throw in some sort of in-
tellectual but incomprehensible
statement about how worthless
everything was. And Kil began
to eye him suspiciously.
I cruised along and gave
Ihem my two-cents worth when
I felt like it. Usually I didn't
feel like it. Bettered was stret-
ched out across the back seat; - t|
I asked him, "Hey, Thandead, ' w|
are you comfortable?"
"I'm OK. That's all."
Up ahead on the left, but
walking with his back to us,
was a man dressed in a bright
reddish purply orange jump-
suit. I slowed down to five mph
and yelled out at him, "Hey
man, do you want a ride?!" He
didn't say anything, but jogg-
ed around to the passenger side
and skipped along until Mr. Ed
came to a complete stop.
I had to think fast. I didn't
want to put Kil in the back for
fear of having a homicide right
behind my very eyes. If I put
Byloe in the back, he and Bet-
terred would drive each other
mad.
So even though I wanted to
talk to this new guy, I told him
to get in the back.
I said, "If you want a ride,
get in the back."
He had kind of a strange way
about him. I said, "Who are
you?"
He paused for a moment...
"Orange... Agent Orange..."
I thought to myself, "Oh
Half an hour later things
were pretty quite in the car. It
turned out that Kil and Wheeler
D. had known Agent Orange
before, and Betterred had
heard about him. I had picked
up a minor celebrity. Kil had
gotten to know him fairly well
in the middle sixties; apparent-
ly the two had worked together
in the jungles north of the Da
Nang Air Force Base in 'Nam."

He had some very hard feelings
towards Agent Orange. But Kil
was helpless to do anythings ex-
cept complain.
Mr. Selhigh, it seems, had
actually sponsored Agent
Orange during that very same
Viet Cong ' 'police action. ' ' But
Mr. Selhigh seemed to be
ashamed of the acquaintance.

Betterred was chuckling
through his nose but he had his
arms folded tightly around his
chest and he was pressed up as
close to the window as he could
get. He acted as if he had a real
aversion to having any kind of
contact with the Agent. There
were traces of fear and loathing
in his manner.
Agent Orange hadn't said
one word since he introduced
himself.
I swerved around a sharp
corner and caught a glimpse of
a DEAD END sign. It was
sticking out of the road em-
bankment at about a forty-five
degree angle and ivy was creep-
ing up it. I stopped Mr. Ed
when there was room to pull off
the road.
"Look," I said, "do you
guys know where you want to
go... where you want to be?"
They all thought for a mo-
ment and agreed that they
wanted to go just a bit further
along.
I said that well I had to be
getting on back because this
wasn't where I wanted to be.
"There's nothing up there, you
know..."
So they all got out and walk-
ed. They said thanks, and head-
ed up the road. Kil, Byloe, and
Betterred crossed the road and
walked on the left side,
shooting nervous, sidelong
glances at Agent Orange.
On my way back I noticed
that the ivy seemed a bit further
up the DEAD END post.
After twenty minutes of driv-
ing through all the things I had
seen on the way, Grindstone
Mountain loomed ahead. A big
concrete drainage ditch ap-
peared for a split second on my

"skate tough or go home!"
spray-painted on the far wall.

d Favorites" and "The
Day Express" no longer

^B>ur Story Hour" has not
j been removed, the elimination
of the former two programs is
^fft of an overal programming
Range. WSMC now em-
Rmasizes a classical format
■Ben days a week, effective as
■ January 1, 1985.
^■Prompted by the conviction
Hal FM90.5 is a missionary
Bm of the Seventh-day Adven-
Bt Church, the station felt its
Bevious format left its listeners
^[th the view that the station's
igramming is inconsistent.
Perry, General Manager
the station, explained that
the listening audience in
lattanooge tuned out the
>ic programming on
ibbath; thus FM90.5 failed at
>e a witness to its
jteners outside of Collegedale.
Perry elaborated further:
[90.5 defines its listeners as
ig those with a specific in-
the arts." With a
isical format interlaced with
Section of brief Inspirational
isages both throughout the
Bek and during the Sabbath,
B station expects to increase
Btosure to Christian principles
of living.
■Because gospel music's pur-
Bse is to "nurture the flock,"
Bid not fulfill the missionary
Brpose of the station. Todd
Brrish, Development Director
Dd instrumental in the new
Brmat, emphasized that there
are other stations in Chat-
tanooga whose sole purpose is
to nurture. Among these are
WNBW, WDYN, and WFLI.
Parrish assures the Adventist
community, however, that they
will still be able to hear their
favorite programs. "The Voice
of Prophecy," "It Is Written,"
"Focus on Living" and other
similar programs have remain-
ed on the air.
Listeners of FM90.5's NPR
programs "Morning Edition"
and "All Things Considered"
will also find that these have
not been removed from the new
programming.
FM90.5 WSMC is the only
classical music station licensed
to Chattanooga. It is also the
oldest non-commercial station
in the area. With a listening au-
dience of approximately 20,000
in any given week, Perry and
Parrish believe that the station
will be more effective in
meeting non-Adventists on
their ground, especially the
thought-leaders of the Chat-
tanooga community.
Although the station will not
carry gospel music anymore,
Perry still sees the students as
listeners.. He expressed surprise
about how many students have
come to him and said that they
do listen to the station and will
not change their habits because
of the change.
Parrish would like to let the
students know that FM90.5 is
now playing more popular
classical music, such as
Beethoven's Fifth Symp^ny,
during the afternoons. He ilso
promises to those that may be
concerned tnat classical music
selected for the Sabbath hours
will be chosen with special care.

Social Vice President Lovett Resigns
Mike Battistone
Marie Lovett, the Student
Association Vice-President for

Although her decision was for-

senate meeting called for 8:00

1985, the letter of resignation,
submitted to President J.T.

Half-price Tuition
Offered to SC Graduate
Melanie Boyd
Southern College is now of-
fering a special half-price tui-
tion plan for baccalaureate
graduates who wish to further
their education by pursuing
another major, by entering in-
to a pre-professioal program,
or by wishing to update their
skills.
To be eligible for the half-
price tuition plan, one must
have earned a bachelor's degree
from an accredited college or
university and have a clean
transcript, with accounts and
loan payments up-to-date with
the college or university.
Complete applications,
transcripts, and recommenda-
tions must be turned in to the
Admissions Office of Southern
College no later than two weeks
before the beginning of the
semester for which you are ap-
plying for.
Financial aid is available for
those who might need it.
The plan applies to classes
where space is available. The
offer does not include indepen-
dent study, directed study, stu-
ed effective January 22 to fulfill
the remainder of the term.
President Shim says that the
change will not be detrimental
to the administration and im-
peril the SA calendar of events.
However, because Bob and
Mitsue are entering their offices
with only two weeks to work on
the Sweetheart Banquet, this
annual event may be delayed by
one week. The new SA officers
say that they will work extra
hours in an attempt to have the
banquet go on as scheduled.
dent teaching, internships,
private music lessons, or a pro-
gram where a tuition discount
is already in effect.
The half-price offer is for tui-
tion only. It does not apply to
lab fees, surcharges for ap-
plicable courses, dormitory
charges, or cafeteria charges.
The semester credit earned
will not apply toward the KLM
Gateway to Europe program.
Southern College reserves the
right to discontinue this special
offer with a decision from the
college administration.
Editorial
Come In From Out
of the Cold
School should have been canceled on Southern College this past
Monday. This statement summarizes the general opinion of the
students and many professors and administrators as well. When
one considers that the temperature stayed under the zero-degree
mark for all of Monday morning, then he must wonder why the
doors of this institution were not closed.
While inclimate weather will not always close down schools in
the North, the situation Chattanooga and its suberbs found
themselves in this past week proves that the South is not prepared
to handle a combination of snow, ice, and sub-freezing
temperatures. This statement is not a knock on the South, simp-
ly a fact. Because this area of the United States does not normal-
ly get this kind of weather, its leaders do not see the need to spend
exorbitant amounts of money to combat something that may hap-
pen once every five years-that is not to say that Chattanooga was
caught totally off guard, however.
The situation on this campus also proves that we too were not
prepared to do battle with Mother Nature. Upon exiting Talge
Hall that morning for an eight o'clock class, I immediately step-
ped on a sheet of ice. Most of the sidewalks were in the same con-
dition. 1 was able to avoid a fall, but other were less fortunate.
Luckily, no one was injured. Through the course of the day, I
was told that Herin Hall, the nursing building, could not be heated
properly, that many of the roads leading to the campus had ice
on them, and that certain professors stayed home because of these
roads. In effect, Southern College was not safe for one's health
on Monday-at least not until the early afternoon.
The reason for holding classes is not known to me, but if there
was a legitimate excuse, then I suggest that only afternoon classes
be held on future days that look like Monday. The school will
then have time to put salt on the sidewalks, to test buildings for
any heating problems, and to get things ready for the students.
The roads may, by that time, have thawed, and teachers may then
be able to come to work. The Chattanooga area may not ex-
perience inclimate weather like the type it had earlier in the week
for a long time, but if it should, then Southern College should
be absolutely sure that the campus is safe to attend.
Randy White:
Friend or Foe?
Randy White is known to vir-
tually every student on campus .
As the Director of Student Ac-
counts and Collections, he has
a difficult and unenviable job.
White is not a greedy ogre in-
tent on cleaning out a student's
pocket; however, rather he is an
intensely dedicated man who
cares about each individual
struggling under the burden of
financing a Christian
education.
White has held this position
for three years now and
previously was the manager of
the Campus Shop. He prefers
his current job to that of retail-
ing because it allows him to
spend more time with his wife
and children.
"Retailing involves a lot of
long hours," kWhite explained,
"and I felt I. needed ato put
more emphasis on my family."

Students who go and talk to
Randy white and who try to do
as much as they can are not the
ones who bring the frustration;
however, those who won't
work and make an effort to
decrease their debt tend to do
that.
"It is important to study,"
states White, "but it is also im-
portant to work. One has to
find that balance in life, even
after graduation. I believe a
Christian education i;
dable for anyone who wants it
and is willing to make the
sacrifice."
White would like to advise
the students on a change in
polic regarding advances
against one's labor.
"We're giving close to
$20,000 a month in cash with
drawals, not including the 25
percent a student is allowed to
draw. With the 25 percent, it is
between $35,000-40,000 a
month, sometimes higher."
The bulk of these expenses are
not directly school expenses but
instead related to new clothes,
gas for the car, or Saturday
night dates. Because of this
fact, there is a six week to two
month lapse between when the
money is given out and when it
is returned, amounting to about

i our way to the mall tues-
my little sister, Lisa, was
tiering away in her usual
:er-school manner. She was
tied that I promised to stop
aco Bell-a promise I made,
Lentally going through
iry shop, trying to decide ex-
ly what she was going to
buy for her. I heard
ly bits and pieces of her talk,
.va.s listening to the
dio. But I was careful to nod
d say "Uh-huh" whenever
paused for air.
Two songs later, I noticed
at the subject had changed to
ist of all the films she has
school from first to
seventh grade. As I listened be-
tween songs, I noticed one fact
that amused me for a second,
then put me into such deep
thought that I didn't notice the
radio anymore-90 percent of
the films were on the same
theme: Man stumbles, almost
falls, finds God to help pick up
the pieces.
Joni Ericson dove into
shallow water at age seventeen,
became' paralyzed, and found
Christ.
Another girl was hit by a ce-
ment truck while riding her
horse. She was paralyzed and
became a Christian.
Cathy was jogging when a
car hit her, breaking her legs.
Jesus helped her through her
struggle to run again.
My mind raced to the films
I've seen on a similar theme,
like the film I saw this summer
at vespers. ..a champion surfer
turned to drugs before turning
to God. Book stores are full of
stories about actresses and ac-
tors who tried drugs, alcohol,
and other measures before they
realized that God is their only
source of fulfillment. He is the
only One who can fill their
empty spaces and make their
lives meaningful.
Such fantastic themes are
witnesses to Christ from the
mass media. Remember The
Prodigal, the Billy Graham
movie released last winter?
That family became Christians
also. I find it very unfortunate
that these people had to go
through so much hardship
before they slowed down
enough to listen to what God
was trying to tell them for a
long time. Most of these people
knew who Christ is, but none of
them took the time to know
Him personally. So Christ just
watched and waited until they
Our parents spanked us when
we were bad. They were prepar-
ing us, caring only about the
end result-that we be good.
God also is concerned about
the end result-eternity. And he
will do everything, even if it
means sending misfortune our
way. We are fortunate as Chris-
tians. We already know who
Christ is. Let's get to know
Him personally now. Don't
make Him break you leg.

ier things that J can look

was really a good summer."
This list is not given to make
the impression that there is no
hard work at camp. There is a
lot of work, but it is rewarding.
You never have a boring mo-
ment while you are at camp and
you never have to look for
friends. You also get a chance
to see how you work with other
people, especially children.
You'll have some experiences
with children that will make
quite an impact (hopefully
good ones). Working with
campers helps you to see
yourself more clearly, and gives
you an opportunity to refine
some of the human relationship
skills that we all need to
A big aspect of camp is the
spiritual side. Every kind of
camper possible will visit your
camp sometime throughout the
summer: from a conservative
SDA kid to a kid who has never
heard about Jesus. There are
numerous opportunities to help
their spiritual lives and your
own throughout the summer. It
is really exciting to see the
campers get involved with the
singing and praying at camp-
fires. Many of them decide to
follow Christ because some
staff member had taken time to
share Christianity with them.
This week and weekend is a
good time to make a decision
about working at camp this
summer. The Youth Directors
from the Southern Union have
been here to talk to those who
are interested. Even if you are
not planning to work at camp,
you should stop by the Student
Center and see how things are
going with your Youth Direc-
tor. You never know, they
might convince you to join
them for the summer. If they
should be gone by the time you

In a heartwarming gesture,
several dozen students and
faculty of Southern College of
Seventh-day Adventists started
off the new year by giving the
gift of life. Fifty-six pints of
blood were donated last week
(January 15 and 16) to help
save lives.
The Blood Assurance
organization, which was form-
ed in 1972, is the only source of
blood to 12 hospitals in the
local area, 10 of them in
Hamilton County and two
across the state line in Georgia.
One hundred pints a day, six
days a week, is the average
needed to keep these hospitals
in constant supply. Because of
community volunteers, this
non-profit organization can
usually meet this requirement.
January and the summer
months are the most difficult
times of the year to find
volunteers, according to a
Blood Assurance spokesperson.
The Blood Assurance staff
have been coming to the cam-
pus of Southern College for
seven years, though the blood-
mobile was acquired until 1979.
This is the first year that the
college is benefiting from a new
program, whereby, if 25 per-
cent of the students donate at
least a pint of blood, the entire
student body is covered by the
Blood Assurance protection
plan. The proection also in-
cludes the group member's im-
mediate family. This protection
can be used anywhere in the
United States and extends over
a one-year period with an in-
finite amount of blood being
available for their use.
"The students and ad-
ministration at Southern Col-
lege have a positive attitude
towards giving blood," stated
the Blood Assurance represen-
tative. "The good response
from faculty and staff spills
over to the students." They are
now working toward their 350
pint minimum which provides
coverage for the 1985-1986
school year.
A total of 243 pints of blood
have been given during the
September, November, and
January two-day visits. A
fourth visit is scheduled for
April 2 and 3.
A donor must weigh at least
1 10 pounds and be 17 years or
older. Careful screening ensures
that certain health requisites are
met in order to safeguard blood
quality.
Bonnie Ley, a senior nursing
student, has given over a gallon
of blood. Other frequent
donors at Southern College are
Dr. Bill Richards, professor of
business administration, and
John Beckett, director of com-
puter services.
The donors not only beneit
from the satisfaction of helping
those who need blood each day,
and from the reassurance of
covering potential personal
need, but they also receive a
free t-shirt and are cared for
very well by the Blood
Assurance staff. Donors are
given soft drinks and cookies.
Blood Assurance staff say
they like to visit high schools
and colleges because giving .
"the gift that keeps on living" *
instills in youth the realization
that the process is easy and
relatively painless. They hope
the donors will continue show-
ing their community awareness
by donating blood through
adulthood.
James Boren is Next
Anderson Lecturer
)
"When in Doubt, Mumble"
is the title of James Boren's
presentation to be given at 8
p.m. tonight in the E.A. Ander-
son Lecture Series.
The ten-part series is being
held in the E.A. Anderson
Business Seminar Room,
located on the third floor of
Brock Hall on the Collegedale
campus.
Dr. Boren will also speak
earlier in the day, at the 11:05
a.m. student convocation in the
Physical Education Center. The
public is welcome.
Known as a humorous
speaker with a message, Dr.
Boren went to Washington,
D.C., to head the staff of a
U.S. Senator. He later served
for nine years as a senior
foreign service officer in Latin
America where he received
numero i awards for his work.
He holds five degrees, has
authored four books, and has
made television and radio
appearances.
In 1968 Dr. Boren founded
the International Association of
Professional Bureaucrats. As
president of INATAPROBU,
he presents "Order of the Bird"
sculptures to those who apply
the principles of dynamic inac-
tion or orbital dialoguing.
"Red tape is the tape that
binds the world together," says
Dr. Boren. "We bureaucrats
are not against cutting tape, as
long as it is cut lengthwise."
In 1972, Dr. Boren ran a
170-mile race from
Philadelphia to Washington,
comparing the speed of the
Pony Express and the U.S.
Mail. With a saddlebag of mail
on a horse, he beat the U.S.
Mail, some of it by as much as
eight days.

When the idea of a
ScanVertiser-Loma Linda's La
Sierra campus has a similar
-was suggested, it didn't
l receive a warm welcome. The
I feeling was that our campus
already had enough informa-
tion systems, such as the Ac-
icent, Chatter, and 2552. Even-
Itually, the idea was approved
Ion the assumption that the
| ScanVertiser could serve as a
f reinforcement for an-
nouncements already made and
a reminder for those who find
places, times, and dates easy to
forget when keeping up with a
busy school schedule. Also, it
would cut down on the number
of posters around the campus.
The ScanVertiser, with a five
minute read out time, was pur-
chased for $2,600. It will even-
tually be hung above the cash
registers in the cafeteria. This
seems to be the ideal spot since
most of the student body
spends some portion of the day
there.
Bill Dubois, SA's Public
Relations Director, will be in
charge of the messages. An-
nouncements similar to those
on 2552 will be shown first. The
remaining time can be bought
for a dollar per message of ten
words or less. Public messages,
such as sporting events and
meetings, and personal
messages, such as birthday
wishes, should be given to Bill
or turned in at the SA office.
For Valentine's Day, read-out
time will be devoted to special
sweetheart messages. It is
hoped that the ScanVertiser will
broaden communication, in-
crease turnout to campus
events, benefit students, and
add to the enjoyment of cam-
pus life.
Marijuana: More
Smoking one marijuana joint DailgerOUS Tlton TODaCCO
probably equal to smoking _
pack of cigarettes a day," says
Dr. Alfred Munzer, a lung
specialist from Takoma Park,
Maryland. He goes on to state
that thus far few lung disease
deaths have been attributed to
marijuana smoking "only
because marijuana as it is being
used today hasn't been around
that long."
Dr. Munzer, who is a
member of the Board of Direc-
tors of the American Lung
Association, is deeply concern-
ed about the carcinogenic pro-
perties of marijuana smoke. In
an interview to be printed in the
February 1985 issue of LISTEN
magazine, Dr. Munzer explains
why smoking marijuana can be
far more dangerous to the lungs
than smoking tobacco.
"Literally hundreds of com-
pounds are released when a
marijuana joint is lit," says
Munzer. "We don't know ex-
actly what each of these com-
pounds does, but a great many
of them are irritants to the
respiratory tract. If the
respiratory tract is irritated long
enough, precancerous condi-
tions appear that can lead to
crue cancer." The greater
potency of marijuana in recent
years has further increased the
risks involved with its use.
Not only does marijuana
smoke contain 50 to 60 percent
more cancer-causing agents
than tobacco smoke, but mari-
juana users tend to smoke
joints down to the very end to
inhale much more deeply than
tobacco smokers, which draws
the carcinogens further into the
lungs. Munzer cites tests which
show the presence of precan-
cer in the sputum of
marijuana users after only three
to six months of regular mari-
juana smoking.

This is how fish fighting
works. Each participating stu-
dent would buy a Chinese
fighting fish called a beta for
about VA dollars. Two fish
would then square off in a
neutral fighting bowl. The first
fish to back off is the loser.
These fish fights, of course,
would be :he preliminaries,
after which the fish would be
ranked and put into a double-
elimination tournament accord-
ing to their ranking.
The fights would take place
in the dorm until popularity in-
creases after which they could
be moved to the Student Center
and eventually maybe we could
get Jaecks to make out a
schedule. These fights would
take the place of soccer, which
is no big deal (maybe three or
four people would get upset)
because nobody likes soccer
anyway.

Cain 81 Arcado 79
Guard Bob Stephan scored 20 second-

points in the clutch as Cain posted a
two-point come-from-behind win over
Arcado. It seemed as though Arcado
would blow the roof off the gym with
pin-point shooting from Jon Marcum,
Steve Carlson, and Dave Butler. Mar-
cum ended the first half with 16 points,
but impressive play in the middle by
Dcug Rowland and Boyle's play off the
bench kept the confidence level of
Cain's team high. Down by 18 at
hairtime, Greg Cain led his team on a
comeback. Blocking three shots and
stabbing six rebounds, Cain gave the
team the added lift they missed from
him in the first half. Defense also was
Cain's strong suit as they limited Mar-
cum to just four second half points.
Carlson was also held to four but Buder

row. O'Neal did get 26 points out of
Eric Hope, however, who has been tear-
ing up the league so far this year. For
Deely, Steve Jaecks pumped in 29
points, including a three- pointer, to lead
the winners. Jerry Russell followed with
1 2 points and Bob Kairu'eneski 1 1 , while
Scotty Adams played a solid point
guard with 9 points. The victory mov-
ed Deely into a first place tie with Greve
in "A" League.
Davis 86 Selby 65
Captain Jeff Davis scored 32 points, hit
four three-point field goals, and pull-
ed do'"n seven rebounds enroute to a
86-65 victory over Kyle Selby's team.
Selby's team never seemed to get it
together until midway through the se-
cond half as they committed 23 tur-
novers in an error-plagued first half that
saw them fall behind 36-19 at halftime.
Jeff Davis had 14 points, and Jimmy
Crone added 10 during the first half for
Davis while Jim Estrada paced Selby
with 10. Davis pulled away with good
play in the key from Toby Fowler and
Crone, as Selby blew their chances with
Mike Fulbright missing ni
shots. Fulbright still led his
scoring with 18 points.

In one of the best women's game so far
this year, Hilderbrandt got past
Washington in overtime 42-38. Kerry

Snow
Snow. It's H20 in one of its
finest forms. It's pretty basic
stuff, actually. And it is one of
the all American cliches. You
know, "of gentle wisp, and
downy flake." Let's face it,
those downy flakes are
fascinating-snow is beautiful.
Everyone appreciates it.
Even the unlikeliest people get
creative in snow. They walk
through it, and they think
about it. Profound thoughts
like, "Hmmmm. . .snow. .
.ooooh—deep," or maybe,
"Here it is, covering all of
everything," (pause for a mo-
! ment) "and then," (another
I pause) "It is so hot in the sum-
mertime. . .think of that." The

a skill that many Americans
like to believe they possess. Un-
fortunately, many Americans
uffer from delusions.
Americans, on the whole, are
very imaginative when it comes
now. We make snowballs
and throw them at each other,
and laugh. (Too bad we can't
fill MX warheads with slush
and play a great joke on the
reds.) We make snowmen and
watch them melt. (Remember

ing up; we will get to hear and
see all kinds of verbal snowball
fighting.) We go skiing, sleigh
riding, tobogganing-and
nobody knows what all.
(Maybe the Encyclopedia Brit-
tanica knows.) Some native
Americans even build their
homes with snow.
But by the way, an American
did not invent snow. Snow hap-
pens when super-cooled con-
densation meets a dust particle.
That is, tiny particles of water,
not large enough to be called
drops, which are existing in
temperatures as low as -40F get
near a little piece of something
to cling to. These tiny bits of
water evaporate when they
come close to a dust particle
and instantly freeze around the
particle without ever going
through the liquid stage. This is
called sublimation. The
evaporated condensation
always crystallizes in a hex-
ogonal structue. That's weird.

Why were the steps on this
campus designed for munch-
kins? Whether it's up or down,
you feel like you're going to
need charm lesons immediately.
Why didn't the school get a
two-for-one special and have
Lynn Wood Hall ripped down,
too?
Why was Brock Hall built
seven miles from the campus,
and when will CARTA start
service between buildings?
Why does the "CK" close at
seven o'clock? Where can you
go around here for a Big Mac
after seven? What is a Master-
Burger anyway? Is it the best
burger they serve? How about
a "Steak-Burger"? Have you
ever seen a bottle of A- 1 in that
place?
Why is there a two-thousand
dollar fireplace in the Student
Center that never burns?
Why do we attend school
when the wind-chill is -42 when
most of us don't have clothes
for that kind of weather?
Why do theology majors
wear clothes designed in 1967?
By the way, guys, the latest
fashion news is that wide ties
are making a comeback, better
get some thin ones.
And finally, why does the
women's dorm have brown and
blue colors while the guys have
pink and purple? And why do
the guys have to leave the
women's lobby at eight, when
the girls can stay in the guys'
lobby till eleven?
Wait one more, the word is
out that the reason we spent
half -a-mill ion on the organ is
that it will last for three hun-
dred years, as opposed to thir-
ty. We won't be here in thirty
years, will we, much less three
hundred? Oh well, something
to think about.
crystalline structures, compos-
ed of molecules consisting of
two hydrogen atoms and one
oxygen atom, come floating
down out of the clouds. Now
we all know that the unbalanc-
ed force on snow (as it is on
everything near or on the
Earth) is 9.8 Newton's (thirty-
two feet per second squared.)
But with all the friction, or up-
ward force, supplied by the at-
mosphere, it can take a long
time for those downy flakes to
land. After all, they do have a
very large area to mass ratio.
And what a beautiful ratio.
Even that master of dualism,
Rene Descartes, took time out
from his brilliant (and
sometimes misleading)
philosophical projections to be
one of the first in history to
draw and write about
snowflakes. (That's a fact.) Go
ahead, read him sometime.
And while you are trying to
understand what he means
about the difference between
mind and body (more
specifically, the difference bet-
ween mind and brain), while
you are trying to picture the I
behind the I in your mind's eye,
while you are trying to float
your mind out through your
ears, you might just pull
yourself together and go out
and thank the Lord with all of
your being for something as
beautiful and fun

The worst weather seen in
years came to Tennessee this
past week, freezing toes, pipes,
and ponds, and sending people
frantically searching for an-
tifreeze for their cars. The
minus-ten degrees temperature
broke all records for the State
of Tennessee since 1966.
Early Sunday morning a
heavy cloud cover spread over
the eastern state, leaving in its
wake 4 inches of snow.
Sunday afternoon all but two
schools in the Chattanooga
area had decided to close
because of bad weather condi-
tions. The only schools that had
classes were Southern College
and Lee College in Cleveland.
m
One radio broadcaster for
KZ-106 commented, "Those
Adventists "
Despite the opening of school
here at S.C., a few classes were
cancelled because teachers were
not able to get to the campus.
Many village students also were
kept home due to slippery roads
and extreme cold.
The inclimate weather seems
also to have affected some of
the students' sanity because
during the coldest period of the
week Mike Sinclair and friends
tried jogging in the snow, wear-
ing only shorts and tennis
shoes. They gave up after only
one lap around Talge Hall.

Dear ladies of Thatcher Hall,
Many thanks for not asking me

If I had been asked, I would
have felt bad when I had to

probably mean that I would not

election will be held on this day
for any office fielding more
than two candidates.
5. Tuesday, February 19,

Remember, its the dues from
your tuition that they'll be

Choo-Choo Hosts
Valentine's Banquet
Alan Star bird
As February 14 inches closer,
many students are wondering
how this year's Valentine's ban-
quet will turn out.
According to Mitsue Yap-
shing, co-Vice-President for
Social Activities, the banquet
will be held, as planned, on
Sunday, February 10 at 7:00
p.m. The place will be the Chat-
tanooga Choo-Choo's Imperial
Room. This year's Valentine
meal will be prepared by the
Choo-Choo's staff and will be
served buffet style.
The banquet is considered an
open affair, meaning that a per-
son from either side of our
campus may ask his or her
"sweetheart" for the special
evening.
"Your Voice" is Subject of
Next Anderson Lecture SC Graduate Cu*s First Album
Mitsue and Bob Folkenberg,
her co- Vice-President, are
"hush-hush" on entertainment
specifics, but some of the infor-
mation that they have given is
that all the entertainment will
be done by Southern College
students. There will be musical
selections, comical skits, and a
magic show. A highlight will be
violin serenade music at one's
table by request. A movie will
be shown, but at the time of
this writing, the title is not
known.
Tickets are available at the
Student Center desk for $25.00
per couple- They are expected
to go fast, so if one wishes to
be part of this evening, he or
she should make plans to attend
immediately.

Final Registration
Figures Show

With the close of Tuesday,
January 22, the last day for
students to add classes,
Southern College of Seventh-
day Adventists had 1 ,475
students enrolled on its Col-
legedale and extension cam-
puses. This time last year, SC
had 1468 students, giving it a
head count increase of seven.
However, the amount of full-
time equivalency students is
down from last year's total of
1 , 124 to 1 ,088 . Also down is the
total hours of enrollment, from
17,420 to 16,857. These
statistics indicate that while
enrollment has stabilized at
Southern College, students are
carrying lighter class loads.

want (Of course, this isn't so if none of the candidates seem to
have anything going for him.), and it gives the newly-elected of-
ficial mandate to work ("We put you in because we felt you would
do the better job. Now do it!"). When an office has only one
person running for it, a voter is reluctant to not affirm him
because the former does not want to extend the month-long elec-
n process any further. Thus the elector puts the individual in
office anyway, and the new officer does not have as strong a man-
date to work.
With more students showing an interest in student government,
positive actions can ba accomplished. Not only will the students
see that an idea is not simply a whim of the few, but the faculty
and administration will notice this, too. With more students get-
ting involved, better years of government are ahead for SC

Dear Editor,
During the recent episodes ot
non-typical Tennessee weather,
it came to our attention that
virtually all schools in the area
were closed, except for a few
glaring exceptions-most
notably Southern CoUege of
Seventh-Day Adventists. Why
this discrepancy between SC
and other schools? Do Adven-
tist college students and
teachers have certain qualities
that make them better able to
navigate in bad weather than
everyone else? Is the snow and
ice less treacherous on this cam-
pus than anywhere else?
True, most of the students
live on campus and don't have
too far to travel from dorm
room to school room, but what
about the village students and
faculty? These people risk life
and limb (and car), struggling
through the elements to get to
school. And what about those
who can't make it at all? Is it
right that some students have to
miss class and go through the
headache of making it up
because they can't get to
school? Then there are the
teachers who are stranded and
miss their lecture time.
We've heard that school is
kept open because the students
wouldn't know what to do
without classes and would go
around terrorizing the campus,
is this true? This reason we find
hard to accept.
Basically, what we're
wondering is why SC must stay
open during this unusual
weather while all other schools
close? A statement concerning
reasons and policies for the
school opening or closing
would be appreciated.

GOD DOESN'T BREAK LEGS
Dear Editor:
It's not often that I read an
article in the Southern Accent
that I don't like or even
disagree with. But Lon
Heinsman's "Reflections" ar-
ticle in this last week's issue left
me wondering and just a little
bit disillusioned.
I agree with the article in that
we do not often heed God's
word, and it takes something
drastic to help some of us see
our mistakes. What I don't
quite understand is the fact that
God is supposed to make these
tragedies happen. I knew He
allowed them to happen, but
since when does He "break"
I was raised and taught to
believe that our God today is
the same loving One who in Bi-
ble times allowed Satan to hurt
Job, yet provided him protec-
tion through his faith.
Even if we don't have Job's
faith, I don't think God resorts
to cruelty. Am I wrong? Has
God changed?
If so, here's to dictatorship,
knowing God, and breaking a
leg.

Reflections
Reed Christman
The doctrine of the Great
Controversy, simply that there
is warfare between Christ and
Satan, between good and evil,
is fundamental to the Christian
church. This spiritual warfare
will continue until Christ comes
again. Ultimately Christ will
win. Goodness will prevail and
righteousness will be the univer-
sal condition forever.
This controversy is in each of
our minds. We all recognize its
existence. In every one of us
there lies at least a spark of
spirituality: a time when we feel
the presence of God in our
lives, a time when we feel the
reality of the gospel.
In the discipline cases I have
dealt with during my five and
a half years at Southern, I have
yet to see even what some might
consider the most "hardened"
individual want to leave. In the
end each has wanted to stay
Letter. . .
tempt to put some humor into
future issues. (Perhaps some-
one will be able to come up with
a title for a humorous column).
"Why aren't there more let-
ters to the editor?" and "Why
didn 't he print the letter I or my
friend sent in?" I cannot print
a letter I do not get. Very few
have come in this year. Some
have come in, but were not
signed. This year's editorial
staff will not print an
anonymous letter because we
believe that a person who has
something to say should let his
reading audience in on his
identity.
I hope I have answered your
questions satisfactorily, Mr.
Palsgrove.

Preparing to Fight the Battle
because he realized that
Southern College provides a
hedge, however small, protec-
ting them from the world.
Likewise, in each of our lives
there is a time when the things
of the world seem in control or
more appealing.
The question then is, how do
we gain the victory in this bat-
tle? What can we do to help the
"good side" win?
Each of us is unique; our ex-
periences are different; but for
me the battle must be won in
the morning. If I am going to
be victorious in the battle, I
must make significant contact
with the Lord Jesus at the
beginning of my day before I
face my responsibilities-before
I relate with others.
To be meaningful, my time
of contact must be structured.
Haphazard worship has never
brought growth and victory in
my life.
My specific method is simple.
I study my Bible primarily by
books and paragraphs as op-
posed to topically. In attemp-
ting to analyze each paragraph,
I list on paper the predicates of
each sentence, then subjects
and objects. I also use what are
sometimes called in English
classes "our six Uttle friends"-
-who, what, where, when, how
and why.
Probing takes time and ef-
fort. Sometimes I read a
paragraph six or seven times
and its meaning doesn't sink in;
sometimes the meaning remains
vague for months; then the
light begins to shine when it is
most needed.
Asking questions, not only
helps in the analysis of a
specific passage, the process
opens the mind igniting an in-
quisitive nature and inspiring
love and appreciation for the
holy.
First Corinthians 10:6-11,
discussing Moses and the Ex-
odus experience, slates: "Now
these things occurred as ex-
amples, to keep us from setting
our hearts on evil things as they
did. Do not be idolaters... We
should not commit sexual im-
morality... We should not test
the Lord... and do not grum-
ble... These things happened to
them as examples and were
written down as warnings for
us..."
I read the Bible stories to my
children and for myself over
and over because they "tend to
keep us from setting our hearts
on evil things."
You may not have a Goliath
to fight, but you have giants of
your own. You may never be
thrown into a lions' den but
there is a lion seeking to devour
you.
Fight back with the Word of
God:
A devouring flame -
Jeremiah 5:14
A crushing hammer -
Jeremiah 23:29
A life giving force -
Ezekiel 37:7
A saving power -
Romans 1:16
A defensive weapon -
Ephesians 6:17
A probing instrument -
Hebrews 4:12
"For everything that was
written in the past was written
to teach us, so that through en-
durance and the encouragement
of the scriptures we might have
hupe." Rom. 15:4 (NIV)

Senate Reports
Sheila Elwin
The senate meeting of
January 28 was one of concen-
trated "senate business."
Senator Folkenberg, of
precinct No. 5, resigned
because of his new Social Vice
President responsibilities.
However, that precinct was
replaced by a unanimous vote
with John Dysinger.
Also, due to takeover of the
Joker Supplement editorship,
Senator Elwin was revoked
from the publications commit-
tee and replaced by Senator
Cole.
Senior Donna Wolbert
resigned her position as student
representative to faculty senate
because of her overloaded
schedule and was replaced by
Joni King,
Analysis Beyond the Resume
After all resignations and
replacements were accepted,
business moved on to a presen-
tation of the upcoming
Sweetheart Banquet by Senator
Yapshing. Yapshing declared
that the food at this banquet
should surpass the quality of
previous banquets.
A budget review by
Treasurer Brownlow showed all
expenses in order by the various
organizations.
Senator Parker gave a special
presentation on the poor phone
situation and senate voted to
make another effort towards
righting it.
The meeting ended with a
reminder for all to got to

Through graphology, a train-
ed analyst is supposed to be
able to distinguish whether a
person is trustworthy, depen-
dable, honest, patient, deter-
mined, or any of a number of
other traits.
The theory is that while the
conscious mind concentrates on
what is being communicated,
the writer's personality comes
through in the height, slant,
rhythm and shape of specific
letters (somewhat like body
language reflects a person's real
feelings).
Some companies are turning
to handwriting analysts for an
unbiased opinion on an appli-
cant, since it's unlikely the
analyst has ever met the person.
Thinking patterns are shown
in lowercase m's and n*s, says
Joan Christo, graduate of an
1 8-month correspondence
course from Chicago's Interna-
tional Graphoanaiysis Society.
Broad, rounded letters reveal a
methodical approach, while the
height of lowercase t's and d's
reveal ego characteristics.
Depression and alcoholism
can also surface through a per-
son's script. According to
graphologist Sheila Kurtz, an
alcoholic's handwriting often
has disjointed j's, and hand-
writing that slants downward
may point to a depressed
person.
Like some other analysis
techniques-astrology,
palmistry, hypnosis-graphology
has an image problem. Many
Americans put it in the "in-
teresting, but not serious"
category.
Still, if employers are giving
the process some thought when
screening propects, applicants
should also take it into con-
sideration while applying for
jobs.
If graphology's track record
imitates that -of hypnosis',
however, that poor image could
change. Hypnosis is now being-
used in many areas as an at-
titude builder and a stress aid;
it's trust-quotient is increasing.
While many firms are afraid ^ v
to utilize graphology because of V_
the possibility of discrimination
or invasion of privacy accusa-
tions, preferring instead to use
the wait-and-see technique,
neither the American Civil
Liberties Union or the Equal
Employment Opportunity
Commission have recorded a
lawsuit based on handwriting
analysis.
CoUegedale's New Celebrity: John Brombaugh
J
Lori Selby
Though much has been writ-
ten in this newspaper about the
new church organ, not much
has been said about the smiling,
white-haired builder.
John Brombaugh and his
wife, Christa, have three
children: Adrienne, Daniel, and
Eric. Mrs. Brombaugh is a
kindergarten teacher. The
organ building business, John
Brombaugh and Associates, In-
corporated, located in Eugene,
Oregon, keeps Mr. Brombaugh
building in the shop most ofthe
time. He says that about 20 per-
cent of his time is spent travel-
ing to install and tune his
organs, as he is doing here in
Collegedale.
Music and organ building
have been lifelong interests of
John Brombaugh. He started
music lessons in the fourth
grade and continued them on
past college. Interestingly, his
undergraduate studies at the
University of Cincinnati, where
he met his German wife, were
not in music, but in electrical
engineering. After graduation,
he worked for the Baldwin
Company on electronic organs.
His organ interest folowed him
even to his honeymoon, part of
which was spent looking at
historic instruments in Europe
from Hamburg to Amsterdam.
Back in the states, he con-
tinued looking at organs while
pursuing a M.A. degree in
engineering, with emphasis in
acoustics, from Cornell Univer-
sity in New York. He wrote his
Master's thesis on the
acoustical properties of organ
pipes.
John Brombaugh's organ
building career began in earnest
with a 3'/2 year apprenticeship
in Boston. During this time he
built his first small organ for his
own congregation, Trinity
Lutheran Church, in Ithaca,
New York. (This first organ
was very similar to Col-
legedale's former little one,
now located in Judy Glass' of-
fice in the Music Building.)
After learning what he could
from American builders, Mr.
Brombaugh became a
journeyman under an organ
builder in Germany, one of the
best in the world. When he
finished his journeymanship in
1968, he already had clients
waiting for him to build organs.
He's been in business ever
since.
Mr. Brombaugh says that
though the physics, science, and
electronics of engineering have
been valuable to him, organ
building involves primarily
cabinet making, woodworking,
Brombaueh carefully Inspects a pipe before tostallatioii.
metallurgy and welding. An
organ builder must be a
specialist in many areas.
Mr. Brombaugh used his
engineering background to
design electronic tools to use in
building and tuning pipe
organs. He also uses a com-
puter for technical designing
and other aspects of organ
building. While the Opus 26 has
a historic architectural style and
the Opus 27 is authentic late
Renaissance-early Baroque
style, Mr. Brombaugh also
builds organs possessing a more
modern architectural style.
Mr. Brombaugh sees organ
building as "recovering an old
art." This year, 1985, is the
300th anniversary of Johann
Sebastian Bach, one of the
world's greatest and most pro-
lific composers. Bach's com-
positions contained many
marvelous organ works, which
have to a large extent been une-
qualed in subsequent years. Mr.
Brombaugh feels that this is
partially because many serious
musicians have stayed away
from modern electrical in-
struments, which cannot i
pass an authentic pipe organ.
He hopes building majestic I
pipe organs will one day foster
the development of composers
to rival Bach.
Organ building in the 16th
and 17th centuries represented
the most advance technical
knowledge of civilization at
that time-comparable to space
exploration in our generation.
John Brombaugh's organ
building has helped to reclaim
a rare art and has combined it,
by new tools and methods, with j
the technology of today.

Alcohol Abuse in Teens
The biggest problem with drug and alcohol abuse is that kids are
beginning to use them at earlier ages. According to Robert Sibley -
Commissioner of the State Mental Health Dept., the statistics
show that 10 to 1 5 perceent of all high school students use alcohol
or drugs in excess. That amounts to around 50,000 teenagers in
Tennessee. The findings also show that young people have their
first dnnk between the ages of 12 and 18. Sibley pointed out that
about 2.5 billion dollars is being invested in these products

Edwin Meece found himself in the Senate Judiciary Committee
hot seat for round number two in his fight to become attorney

Have you ever wondered
what Rodney Dangerfield and
a zebra have in common?
Neither receives any respect. By
Zebra, I mean a referee, which
he is commonly referred to as.
Being a referee can be one of
the loneliest jobs in the world.
Have you ever been standing in
the middle of an open floor and
had hundreds of people yelling,
screaming, throwing foreign
objects and treating you much
worse than your mother ever
would? There is nothing more
disheartening than looking out
into the crowd, looking for that
one face, that one person you
know will back you on every
call, and discovering that he's
staring holes in the floor, not
wanting to acknowledge that he
even knows you.
We, I' , few, the proud, the
refs nc. er claim to be perfect.
We're only human. What do
you expect from us? When you
have ten bodies flying around
the court and one lone soul
comes up to you and says "Hey
man, didn't you see him slap
my hand???!!!" there is only
one reply... No way" Let's be
for real. How can one person

Basketball Standings
catch all the nitpicky things that
transpire on the court and be
fair about it?
Basketball is a physical
game. There is going to be some
shoving, pushing, scratching
and tripping in every game.
And, yes, I hate to admit it, but
I must be honest. We will miss
some of those calls. They do in
the NBA, so why can't we? It's
nothing personal as many
would tend to believe, we just
call what we see.
It seems that some people
think we're out to get them. I'll
let you in on a little secret.
There is only one thing a referee
cares about in a basketball
game... getting it over as soon
as possible. We could care less
who wins the game, who fouls
out or scores the most.
Now, before you pious
sports experts yell at what
seems to be a bad call, try wear-
ing the striped shirt and whis-
tle for awhile on one women's
game. Ponder these points, and
the next time you see a referee
giving a technical to a player, be
assured he really would prefer
not to. It's just his job!

Fourth Floor? What fourth
floor? There aren't any. You're
right, not in the literal sense.
But there is a certain faction of
the dorms that maintains a
floor for the purpose of
character assassination. (The
cafeteria is running a close
second.)
Now almost everyone gossips
in his life at one point or
another-and that in itself is bad
enough-yet somehow gossip
almost seems accepted. Out-
and-out character assassina-
tion, however, is cruel and can
destroy people.
Usually a small percentage of
people are involved, yet this
small group is always the
loudest.
During your life you have
met, and will meet people, who
don't exactly "turn your
crank," if you will. That's part
of life; accept it. Better yet, go
out and tell that person; be
honest and say, "Hey, I don't
like you for the following
reasons. . . Can we work this
out?"
Bold, you say?. . . Wouldn't
you rather have someone say
this to your face than tell the
rest of the campus? More often
than not, the reason you don't
like someone is due to a
misunderstanding anyway, and
if you don't get the reasons out
in the open, you have two hurt
people~you and your accusee.
For example, just because a
guy chooses not to have a
girlfriend and he dates friends,
doesn't mean that he is a
playboy. He could have very
good reasons; maybe he doesn't
want to get hurt. And what
about a girl who doesn't want
a boyfriend? I've heard one too
many guys call a girl "easy," or
"stuck-up" just because she
dates around. Maybe classes
are too time-consuming to have
a relationship.
Trying to "do someone in"
will have two principle results:
making you look foolish and
reducing school morale.
Remember this is a Christian
school, so we should at least
make an attempt to be Chris-
tian in our relationships with
each other. Face it, friendship
is where it's atl Southern Col-
lege has some of the nicest peo-
ple you will ever meet.
Remember guys, that girl
whose reputation you rip to
pieces could be someone's
sister. What if she were yours?
"They've gone from baby
stuff to more grown up stuff.

new academic plan is as
n. (see chart right)
'At first glance the grouping
departments into divisions
may not seem to be organized,"
said Allen, "but it is." The
Divisions are patterned along
the lines of the general educa-
tion group requirements.
The people who will be most
affected, the current division
chairmen, are not all convinc-
ed. One administrator said, "It
will only put another echelon of
the organization between the
administration and the teachers
or students. We don't need that
in a college this size."
Some administrators were
very supportive of the plan
however. Wayne VandeVere,
Chairman of the Division of
Business and Office Ad-
ministration, said he thought it
would bring decision-making
closer to the action. Other
chairmen are also positive
about the new plan. "I tend to
be a raging optimist," said
David Steen, "and I say let's try
it. We can always change it
later if it doesn't work." Steen
also said that it would allow
divisions to develop a "critical
mass" that seems to be
necessary to get major projects
done.
The new plan should not
have any effect on the students
in the immediate future, said
Bill Allen. There may be some
changes in the general educa-
tion requirements, but that will
not take effect immediately.

Support Group for Bulimarexics Started

support group for

nnd Linn Robertson, profes-
sional counselors in the com

[ what has been an
|wareness program directed
wards the women of Thatcher
pall.
Last semester, Dr. Marlene
)skind-White, a practicing
iychotherapist who has re-
ached eating disorders,
asented a workshop on
bulimarexia, an eating disorder
Ihat twenty percent of the
IJnited State's college women
pave. On Tuesday of this past
Week, the women were given
the fourth talk within a period
|>f two weeks on the same
Although Millie Runyan,
Jean of Women, realizes that
he subject can become weary
>n many of the regular worship
i°ers, she is concerned with
hat appears to be a rash of
ies of bulimarexia among the
lidents of Thatcher. Mrs.
unyan believes that the na-
ional rate of twenty percent af-
ction is a fair estimate of how
y women on campus have
limarexia.
I Bulimarexia was described as
J "binge/purge cycle" by Dr.
foskind-White. She outlined in
- lecture last semester three
|vels of the affliction. A
■Oman will start forcing herself
1 vomit as another method of
weight control. She only purges
on the occasions where she has
overeaten to the feeling of
discomfort.
The next stage is more severe.
Irresponsibly, she begins gorg-
ing herself with food. Then
purging becomes an everyday
activity when she realizes that
she can get rid of the food easi-
ly. The methods of purging are
fasting, vomiting, and self-
induced diarrhea.
Finally, this habit becomes a
lifestyle, but at this point ir-
reversible damage has been
done \o the body.
Mrs. Runyan relates that
finding vomit in the restrooms
and study rooms of Thatcher
Hall has been a common occur-
rence, so much so that she has
had to lock these rooms during
the late evening hours. A
woman will often use a public
bathroom or a study room to
vomit in because she wishes to
hide the problem from her
roommate.
Runyan points out that in
past school years, vomit in
these rooms were found
although not as often as this
year. One other difference is
that the deans are now aware
that the vomit may be from a
bulimarexic. In the past, it was
attributed to a woman who was
pregnant or who was drunk.
Runyan says that with the
knowledge she has now, she
realizes that pregnancy or
drinking may not have always
been the problem.
The women's deans are ter-
ribly concerned about the pro-
blem because of the damage it
can do. Runyan related an in-
stance about an unnamed
Orlando student who went on
this binging/purging cycle. She
eventually had to drop out of
school. Today the woman has
heart problems and many other
permanent side effects from her
habit. Some women, she says,
take upto one hundred laxitives
a day in an effort to thoroughly
purge themselves. This act may
be damaging to the walls of the
intestines.
Mrs. Runyan is pleased with
the results of the awareness
program. She said that many
women are beginning to realize
their problems. A part of the
program that has effectively
worked is an advertisement for
a phone number women can
call for help found in the
classified section of this
newspaper. She says that she
does not know who has called
although she has been told the
response has been good. Ru-
nyan notes that this number is
a reliable alternative to any
woman who might not be asser-
tive enough to participate in a
group counseling session.
The sessions will meet in
Thatcher Hall in the Annex sec-
tion. The counseling is free of
charge, and women with the
problem are encouraged to go.

Anderson Lecturer Advises
on "How to Buy a Car"
Bill Battle will present prac-
tical pointers for potential car
purchasers in the next E.A.
Anderson Lecture at Southern
College of Seventh-day
Adventists.
The lecture, followed up with
a question and answer period,
will begin at 8 p.m. tonight in
Brock Hall.
Mr. Battle began working
with auto dealerships nearly 45
years ago. He started out in the
parts department of a Chrysler-
Plymouth dealer in 1940 for
$12.00 a week. World War II
closed the dealership, but after
his discharge from the military,
Mr. Battle was rehired by the
same Washington, D.C. dealer.
In 1951, Mr. Battle moved to
Collegedale and became a new
car salesman for Chattanooga's
oldest automobile dealership,
Citizen's Motor Co., a
Chrysler-Plymouth dealer. He
held the position of sales
manager from 1957 until 1970
when the dealership was sold.
For the next three years, he
was sales manager for Austin
Chrysler- Plymouth. He is now
sales manager at Newton
Chevrolet, Chattanooga's
oldest Chevrolet dealer, a posi-
tion he has held for nearly a
dozen years.
Mr. Battle is a member of the
Collegedale Seventh-day
Adventist Church. He has serv-
ed as a deacon since 1959.

Meet the Candidates
by Sheila Elwin and Melanie Boyd
mmm
Where's the Truck?
When you were younger, you were probably met with the
O challenge to eat all your food because there are people in the world
who are starving and would be glad to have what you didn t eat.
Then you didn't whether those were meaningful words or just
a ploy to get you to eat all your food. The point is that you most
likely grew up with the vague understanding that somebody in
the world didn't eat like you did. Now you are older, and the pro-
blem of hunger is becoming more and more relevant as the press
brings it into the sight of the public. Are we capable of helping
cure the problem of starvation?
My answer is yes and no. I believe we as a country are doing
all we can to aid in the distress of other nations. If we continue
to give a few dollars of our tax money, a few dollars here and
there to charity to help the starving people in the world, we will
most likely be giving the maximum of what a country is able to
absorb. So if we are giving all the money that a country can use,
and the people of that country are still hungry, does that mean
there is no way that we are ever going to cure the problem of star-
vation? This is correct, if we continue attempting to solve the pro-
blem with the same strategy we have been using all along.
But there is a "yes" answer to the question, too. The real pro-
blem is often looked over by a staid and naive public. We are
giving food, that is true, but in nine cases out of ten, the country
has received enough food to seek out a survival. The problem lies
in its distribution. Who would give a truck to a starving town?
But that's just what some of them need so they can travel the
distance to a suppy center where they can get the food that your
dollar has sent them.
The U.S. Government is putting billions into research that is
trying to discover new methods of growing crops and planning
new industries for the people of a deprived country, but they've
been doing this for years without results. Everyday thousands of
people perish because we are researching-trying to find out the
solution to an unsolveable problem. Unless we wake to the real
needs of these people they will continue to die because of our
ignorance.
When you hear that a country has asked for help because their
people are starving, don't let the presupposition "they need some
food" pop into your mind. Mavbe thev're askinc for a truck!
Letters.
SORRY TO DISAPPOINT YOU. . .
Dear Readers,
I hate to disappoint some of
you, but Dennis Negron and I
were not "feuding" in the
"Letters. . ." section of the
January 31 Southern Accent.
My reason for writing was to
formally ask Mr. Negron to
make certain things clear to
you, the readers. I already
knew the answers to my ques-
tions. Mr. Negron knew 1
planned to submit a letter. We
not only work together in the
Student Association, but also
are friends. Neither of us in-
tended that my question and his
reply sound malicious. I feel
that it is unfortunate that peo-
ple read so many negative
things into something that is in-
tended to be positive.
Thank you.

The Youth Department of
the Seventh-day Adventist
Church is encouraging Adven-
tist youth around the world to
participate in the 1985 United
Nations International Youth
Year.
International youth leader
Leo Ranzolin of the General
Conference of Seventh-day
Adventists said the church en-
courages "each level of the
church's constituency to
establish an International
Youth Year Committee to plan
and activate at least one pro-
gram to celebrate the interna-
tional Year of Youth."
Ranzolin warned, however,
that the church should avoid
political entanglements. "In-
evitably some political over-
tones will influence actions
taken by an international body
such as the United Nations, and
the IYY is no exception, "he
said. "Church constituencies
should avoid political engage-
ment of any kind. Rather, they
should emphasize the positive
aspects that the Year of Youth
affords."
Ranzolin said the church en-
courages a variety of programs
centered on the IYY theme,
"Participation, Development,
Peace."
In the area of participation,
Ranxolin said the Adventist
church encourages its youth to
"join in at least one communi-
ty project or ask authorities for
a special project for the church
youth group that will help and
bless the community as an
ongoing benefit." He also urg-
ed Adventist youth to par-
ticipate in home and church

urges youth to develop tt<

Adventist youth should end

engage in Bible studies i
various kind of commuj

"Peace is found in consti

"Christian youth can i

Changes and Choices
years. Generally, the younger
people are, the more rapidly
they wish those days would
pass. 1984 has passed, and 1985
is here. The Presidential elec-
tions came and went. The in-
auguration is over, and now the
country is asking for the im-
plementation of change and
leadership that could affect
many aspects of our lives.
Some have not always found
change easy to deal with. I
know a faculty member on our
staff who, with his older sister,
were adopted when they were
young. Some thirty years later,
while teaching a class here at
SC, he received a call from a
scared, excited, nervous young
lady, followed later by a call
from an equally scared, excited,
nervous young man who had
been searching for a brother
and sister they knew existed
through photographs stored
away in a shoebox by their
mother before she died. That
phone call and the calls that
followed, along with an actual
meeting some months later,
brought about a profound
change not only in his life, but
in the life of his family. This
sudden change confronted him
and his family with choices-
choices that would be very dif-
ficult for some to deal with.
Should they accept or reject this
young man and young lady
along with their families and
children whose way of life was
different from theirs? They
made their decision to accept
them as they were and asked
them to do the same. What was
more important was that they
had found one another.
Changes and choices are in-
terrelated. Changes often lead
to choices. Yet choices in-
evitably affect changes. Often
choices are not clearcut. The
most difficult are those that
deal with the "grey" areas. As
students and staff here at SC,
we sometimes find ourselves
learning how to relate to friends
who choose to practice and
believe differently from what
we believe. Our level of
tolerance of others would no
doubt be reflected across the
spectrum. I find nothing intrin-
sically wrong with that, except
that with the passage of time
and possibly the results of
maturity and study, we change,
we make choices, we toil, we
and grow. Our lives seem to be
full of choices-whether to get
up or to stay in bed a little
longer in the morning, to study
or to watch a ball game, to wait
for a date or to go on your
own, to eat or to get to the next
class on time—and the list can
go on. For faculty and
students , changes are being
brought about in the Division
structure of our college and
with it come choices that might
not only affect the way business
is conducted in this institution,
but it will also influence the
lives of us all. Consequently, we A
need to be careful about the ^^
choices and changes we make.
Change in itself is neither
good nor bad. Choices in
themselves are neither good nor
bad. Yet they are both in-
evitable. We come to those
forks in the road, and we have
to make choices as to which
path to take, and our lives
become changed from that
point. Some decisions are ir-
reversible, and especially if they
are based on poor choices our
lives, our future, and the lives
of those around may be hurt.
We are all bound to make
mistakes, but how we deal with
those mistakes, the choices we
make might just turn those
mistakes into stepping stones
leading to positive change in

Father-Child or Idol-Child:
Reinhold Smith
"Oh most Holy, Almighty,
Life-giving Heavenly Father,
we thank-you for another day
of life, a day in which we can
witness of your Beautiful,
Unrelentless, Life-sustaining
love."
A little deep perhaps? Are
you bored yet? God probably is
too. Have you had enough of
pastors opening their prayers in
this fashion? Isn't God our
heavenly father? When you call
your parents, do you use such
sugar-coated adjectives? No,
you simply say, Hello Dad, I
need money!
Parents love you, provide for
you, and care about your hap-
piness. Isn't God the same, ex-
cept on a heavenly level? If you
were a father, how would you
like your child to come to you
and use the previously men-
tioned greeting in addressing
you?
Now, I'm not advocating a
lack of respect for God, but
rather saying that you should
treat him as a parent, not an
idol.
How about public prayer?
Why do pastors, teachers, and
lay-people with years of ex-
perience in public-speaking
read prayers filled with mean-
ingless adjectives? Of course,
there isn't anything wrong with
writing out your prayer and
reading it, if you have had no
experience. Obviously the
chance of a mistake from the
pulpit would be higher.
However, those with experience
should pray from the heart or
not at all.
Prayer should also be simple.
After all, it is a conversation
with God, much the same as a
conversation with your earthly
father.
Have you ever listened to a
child pray? Christmas vacation
I had the pleasure of listening
to my nine-year-old nephew
pray, and it went something
like this:
"Dear Father, thank-you for
loving me, Mom and Dad,
Grandma and Grandpa, and
Uncle Ron. Forgive my sins,
help the missionaries, the
flowers not to die, and the
cowboys and Indians not to
fight. I love you, good night."
I sat back and thought: How
simple, just as if God himself (^
was in the room, like a friend.
You know what, He was.
The reward of a thing
well done, is to have
done it.

Jonathan Wurl
Jonathan Wurl and Cameron
Cole are running unopposed
and are on the same ticket for
the 1985-86 school year.
Presidential candidate Wurl
is a junior chemistry major and
Executive Vice Presidential can-
didate Cole is a sophomore
biology major.
When asked, Wurl and Cole
stated that they wished to run
together for the same goal: to
encourage student involvement.
Said Cole, "1 feel that the
words 'Student Association1
have lost their meaning. We
need to put the 'student' back
into 'Student Association'."
Wurl added that he was
"proud of the S.A." and wish-
es to promote a "sense of pride
among all the students."
Both put prime importance on
interaction between the
students and S.A.
Wurl's experience includes
temperance president his
freshman year in academy,
S.A. president his sophomore
year, junior class pastor, and
senior class president.
Cole's academy experience
includes student council
treasurer his freshman year and
S.A. treasurer his senior year.
Also, he is senator and assistant
Joker supplement editor this
year.
Lori Heinsman
Lori Heinsman, sophomore
mathematics and journalism
major, is the sole runner for
Southern Memories Editor.
Heinsman, who is from
Orlando, Florida, would not
tell her plans for the Memories,
since she wishes to keep an
"element of suspense." But,
she does emphasize the goals of
a very accurate index and an
alive yearbook.
Explains Heinsman, "I want
the pages to come alive as we
capture the moments in picture.
Also, I want the write-ups to
give an actual feeling of reliv-
ing the events."
Her long list of experience in-
cludes yearbook photographer
her junior academy year and
newspaper feature editor her
senior year. She also worked
for her hometown newspapers.
Presently, Heinsman is a
senator, writer of "Dear Lori,"
Accent reporter, and copy
editor for Memories.
Brannon Francois
The office of Vice President
for Student Services has four
candidates running for it. The
first one is Brannon Francois.
Brannon is a freshman religion
major. His hometown is New
Orleans, Louisiana. Mr. Fran-
cois feels qualified for this job
because he has had a lot of ex-
perience as a leader on the high
school level. Some of his
leadership positions are SA
President at Bass Memorial
Academy, senior class
secretary, boys' club leader,
and a residents' assistant.
Brannon says that as a
freshman, he can instill fresh
ideas in the SA. One of his
ideas that he would implement
if he were elected would be van
service to approved ballgames
and concerts.
Carol Huenergardt
Our first candidate for the
position of Social Activities VP
is Carole Huenergardt. She is a
freshman from Ceres, Califor-
nia. Carole feels that she is
qualified for the job because
she is organized, flexible, en-
joys doing things for the
students, and is a perfectionist
in her work.
Carole has quite a few ac-
tivities she would like to see put
into effect, such as a time in the
middle of the week for the
students to come away from
their studies and have a little
time to converse and relax for
awhile, more trips to the Alpine
slide, a road rally, and a larger
variety of Saturday night
activities.
Bill Bass
The second candidate for the
office of Vice President for Stu-
dent Services is Bill Bass. This
junior religion major makes his
home in Charlotte, North
Carolina. Bills feels that he has
the experience to satisfy
Southern College's students'
needs the best. Formerly a
boys' club president in
academy, he currently works as
a senator, as a residents' assis-
tant, and for Instructional
Media.
Despite one of the smaller
budgets in the SA, Bill says that
he can work with it and provide
some good services. Some ot
these are as follows: trips on
certain Sunday mornings to
Atlanta malls, the return ol
Pink Panther cartoons, an
more cookie breaks during me
course of a day.
Sherry Beardsley
Our second candidate is
Sherry Beardsley. She is a
freshman from Kansas City,
Kansas. Sherry has had
previous experience working
with an S.A. organization at
Forest Lake Academy, where
she was the S.A. treasurer her
senior year. She said that she
also helped out with planning
several social activities as well.
Sherry would really like to
see the school spirit of Southern
uplifted and would like to plan
some sort of school-spirit day.
She would like to see more of
the students getting involved
with activities and says that she
is open to all ideas and
suggestions.
Ed Santana
Ed Santana is our third can-
didate for this office. He is a
freshman theology major from
South Lancaster,
Massachusetts. Ed lists his
qualifications for this leader-
ship position as follows: vice-
president for his school's stu-
dent government, president of
the same school's Spanish club,
two years experience as a
logistics officer in the ROTC,
and currently a senator at
Southern College.
Ed sees no problem with get-
ting his job done efficiently and
correctly. "I think I can do the
job, and I want to do the job,"
he says. He did not wish to
divulge any of his plans for next
year should he get the office,
but Ed plans to put out a survey
to find out what students want.
Bob Jones
Bob Jones is a junior com-
munications/journalism major
from Leominster, Massachu-
setts^ and is running for Accent
editor. He is currently the
Layout Editor for the school
newspaper. He feels that he is
qualified for this job for many
reasons. One of the main
reasons is that Bob has been
working on a newspaper staff
since his high school years. He
hopes to make the paper more
balanced in the choice of ar-
ticles, and he wants all to know
that he is open for ideas.
Julio Narvaez
Our final candidate for the
office of Student Services is
Julio Narvaez. Julio is from
Mayaguez, Puerto Rico, but is
a Mexican citizen. He lists his
qualifications simply as a hard
worker, a good organizer, and
a good handler of finances. Our
candidate has had leadership
experience before, but he feels
they are unimportant to the
position. The qualities above
are enough, according to Julio.
Julio would like to provide
more traveling information to
students for vacation, help keep
the students more informed,
plan more trips to fine arts and
sporting events, and much
more. He too plans to take a
survey to find out the likes of
the students.
Brent Van Arsdell
The second candidate for
Editor of the Southern Accent
is Brent Van Arsdell, from
Lockport, Illinois. Brent is a
reporter with the Accent this
year and has been layout editor
in the past. He feels that his
strong point is not only his
previous experience, but that he
is a good budgeter. Brent feels
that with his good budgeting
skills, he can create a better
paper. He promises that he will
do the best job possible and will
have the "stick-to-it
get the job done,
C
Paul Ware
The only candidate running
for the position of Joker editor
is Paul Ware. Paul is a
sophomore history major
working on his pre-medical re-
quirements. Our candidate
resides in Newport News,
Virginia. He has had no
publishing experience, but plen-
ty of leadership experience,
such as senior class vice-
president, junior class presi-
dent, freshman class president,
and boys' club
secretary /treasurer.

publication of the school, Paul

to get the booklet out on time

On Saturday evening, a
crowd of approximately 800
people saw the SA officers and
some of Southern College's
faculty and administrators,
along with some of the area
ministers, perform in the an-
nual SA Benefit. Perhaps a
more appropriate way of saying
it is the crowd watched the
above performers make
donkeys of themselves.
This year's SA Benefit event
was Donkey Basketball. Ac-
tually, the donkeys were the
performers as they bucked,
kicked, ran away from their
riders, played stubborn, and
had "accidents." And the
riders simply had to allow all of
this to go on to play within the
rules of the game.
The evening's festivities had
the ministers playing the
teachers in one game and the
SA officers and administrators
playing in another. The
teachers and administrators
won their respective games and
went on to play a championship
match. The teachers won this
final game.
"Awards" were given out at
the end of the night. Some of
the more notable ones were

After a month of play, the
College Bowl has taken some
interesting turns. Monday,
February 4, saw one more team
eliminated from competition,
leaving nine out of a field of
twelve original teams vying for
the championship.
Chip Cannon lost to Alice
Roszyk in a match that saw the
loser come up five points short
of a tie upon answering the last
question with time running out.
The final score was 205-200.
Although at times Roszyk
seemed to be taking command
of the game, Cannon refused to
bow under pressure. With two
s left in the game, Can-
non's team, down 205-170,
answered two toss-ups and part
of a bonus question but ended
up short five points. With two
losses in the College Bowl, Can-
non was eliminated from play.
Also on Monday evening, in
a game matching two of the
teams favored to win the cham-
pionship, Russell Duerksen
edged Keith Goodrum in the
last two minutes. This game
was similar to the one above in
that Goodrum also seemed to
have the game locked half way
through the match before
Duerksen mounted a come-
back. The final score was
250-235.
With the loss, Goodrum
joins Hobbs and Wolbert, three
of the top four seeds, in the
consolation bracket. A second
loss will eliminate any of these
teams. Already eliminated are
Steven Wrate, Liz Cruz, and
Chip Cannon.
Tonight's matches feature
Mitzi Acosta vs Alice Roszyk
and Zell Ford vs Donna
Wolbert. The first match will
start at 5:15 p.m. behind the
curtains in the cafeteria. The se-
cond game will start five
minutes later.

Holbrook's introduction of
Diana brought laughter. "This
little girl that we're so proud of
studied in such exotic and
strange places as Beruit,
Asmara, Gimbi, Libya, Crete,
and considerably." When he
continued, "She's a delightfully
sparkling and exuberant girl,
and I want the judges to know
that she's only the first in a long
line of graduates of Home
Study International that will be
honored here every year."
Holbrook estimated that
about ten Senators and twenty
Congressmen showed up. Even
though Diana, who voted for
the first time in the past elec-
tion, had voted for both of
them, she was nevertheless sur-
prised when both Represen-
ative Marilyn Lloyd, 3rd
District of Tennessee, and
Senator Albert Gore, Jr., of
Tenessee, were on hand to pre-
sent the award which said,

Health Care Systems Topic
Anderson Lecture
Ronald J. Wylie, a lawyer
from Washington, D.C., will
present "If You Like Revolu-
tions, You'll Love the Health
Care System" tonight, Feb. 14,
at 8 p.m. in Brock Hall.
Mr. Wylie is currently special
I assistant to the administrator of
the Health Care Financing Ad-
L ministration (HCFA), U.S.
[Department of Health and
Medicaid programs which com-
prise approximately 10 percent
of the entire Federal budget.
"If Medicare and Medicaid
ere considered as a private
f corporation, these programs
together would be the second
1 largest corporation in the coun-
try," Mr. Wylie points out.
Health care services have pro-
| vided for over 52 million poor,
elderly, and disabled
Americans. Expenditures on
their behalf will total nealy $100
billion in fiscal 1985.
After receiving his bachelor's
degree from Andrews Universi-
ty, Mr. Wylie went on to
receive his law degree from the
University of Michigan Law
School, where he was a finalist
in the Freshman Moot Court
Competition.
A member of the Michigan,
District of Columbia, and U.S.
Supreme Court Bars, he has
previously served in the Office
of the Commissioner of the Ad-
ministration on Aging, and was

Heritage Singers
to Give Concert
at Southern College
Sheila Elwin
The Heritage Singers, an in-
ternationally known singing
group, will present a gospel
concert in the Collegedale
Seventh-day Adventist Church
on Tuesday, Feb. 19, at 7 p.m.
The 12-member group of
singers and musicians recently
returned from a second Euro-
pean tour, including perfor-
mances in London, Paris, and
Geneva. Tours have also taken
them to Australia, New
Zealand, and South Africa.
The group is based in Placer-
ville, Calif.
Known for their rich and
harmonious blend of voices,
the Heritage Singers have
received five Angel Awards
from Religion in Media. This
Los Angeles-based organization
judges for excellence in
religious and moral quality
media and recognized them in
vocal group of the year, best
television series for "Keep On
Singing," and best albums.
"This year marks the four-
teenth season of the Heritage
Singers' sharing the love of
Jesus Christ thorugh testimony
and song," comments Max
Mace, founder and director of
the Heritage Singers. "Our sole
objective is bringing people to
Jesus through Christian
music."
Admission is free, and the
public is welcome. The group
has made over 40 records and
tapes.

^ Vote!. . .Please
After four years of noticing thai students do not bother to vote
during Student Association elections, this year I feel that a plea
for a better turnout is in need. Last year less than fifty percent
of the students voted. That figure is lower than the national turn-
out for most presidential elections in this century. Yet in SA elec-
tions, a student does not have to go through complicated registra-
tion processes, take time away from class or work to make the
trip to a voting area, or stand in long lines.
In fact, voting for SA officers is made as simple as possible
for the student. He may cast his vote in the dorm, at the Testing
and Counseling Center, or at chapel sometime during the day from
8:00 a.m. to dorm closing time. The procedure takes a pencil and
five minutes and no more.
With all due respect to our current SA President, J. T. Shim,
I have at times wondered if he would be in office if more people
had voted last year. Shim won by the narrow margin of ten votes.
If ten more of Denise Read's supporters had turned out, a special
election would have been in order. The voter apathy of Southern
College students may have been the decider in that race, and not
the supporters of Shim.
This year, only three of the races have more than one person
running for it, which is unfortunate. But that fact does not detract
from the importance of the sutdents' voting. Not one of the can-
didates for the offices of Vice President for Social Activities, Vice
President for Social Services, and Accent Editor would feel hap-
py about a loss by only ten votes with less than fifty percent of
the student body voting. Still, the importance of voting for next
year's elected officers is that they will help shape the fun of
1985-86. If a student wants a good year, then he should vote. And
from the feedback that SA officers get when something does not
go right, most students want a good year.
Next week, February 21 , Thursday, Southern College will hold
its SA elections. I would be happy with a sixty-percent turnout.
The amount is not unrealistic. It can happen by SC students simply
heeding the plea to vote.

LANGUAGE MAJORS TO GROW
I regret that your informative
tabulation on the front page of
the 7 February A ccent indicates
that there—are no modern
language majors on campus. It
is true that the number has
dwindled to an all-time low of
one, though another has recent-
ly decided to change his major
to French. Our campus does
have three other students,
however, who are attending
Adventist Colleges Abroad:
two at Collonges and one at
Sagunto. These students will
return to us with a modern
language almost completed, if
not entirely so.
We expect the number to
grow dramatically when word
gets around that several
southeastern states will soon re-
quire two years of high-school
language in order to enter the
state university system. Florida,
for example, is already beginn-
ing a search for more than 100
certified teachers of Spanish.
Truly yours,
Robert R. Morrison, Chairman

SCS HISTORIC DECLARATION
Although, we the people of the
United States have come a long
way since our forefathers first
devised the. Declaration of In-
dependence, perhaps, as United
States citizens, and students at
Southern College, it would be
appropriate for us to follow the
principles of a revision of such
a declaration to fit with the
policies of Student Association
elections.
"When in the course of
Southern College events, it
becomes necessary for one stu-
dent body to dissolve the
political bands which have con-
nected with another (JT and
Company), and to assume
among the Powers of the Stu-
dent Association, the separate
and equal station to which the
Laws of the Student Associa-
tion and of the Student
Association Constitution entitle
them, a decent respect to the
opinions of the students re-
quires that the Student Associa-
tion officers-elect should
declare the causes which impel
them to their separate
positions."

How many of you read the
Lewis Grizzard column in the

even Weyman C, Wannamaker

AI Pacino." Having heard
about Scarf ace, Pacino's
movie, I read this editorial. It
prompted me to give some
thought to the dirty language,
nudity, and violence that we see
in movies and on television.
Grizzard explained that
Pacino "plays a Cuban punk
who becomes a high-rolling
dope dealer in Miami by going
around shooting and knifing
people." However, violence is
not the only reason the film was

"It was the nonstop use of nas-
ty language. . . There was one
dirty word, as a matter of fact,
that was used over and over in
the movie. Al Pacino didn't say
two other words before saying
that word again." This word is
described as being perhaps the
most taboo word in our
After further description of
the film, Grizzard writes, "I
think it's time Hollywood
cooled it on the excessive use of

where all this started though. It

"If Rhett had said, 'Frank-
ly, my dear, I don't give a flip,'
then talking dirty in the movies
might never have reached its
current depths."
Right on Grizzard! My sen-
timents exactly. Real men don't
cuss (or real women). It's dir-
ty, impolite, immature and ex-
hibits a limited vocabulary. Nor
does it make much sense most
of the time. Why cry out for
"manure" when you burn your
finger? An ice cube would be
more appropriate.
It's not fair, though, to just
harp on cussing in movies. The
same goes for nudity. It has
gotten way, way out of hand.
Sure, we're adults. We are old
enough to see what the human
body looks like. So we defend
PG-13 movies, nasty TV shows,
and the weird videos on MTV
on that assumption. "We don't
listen to that stuff, Dad, so
don't get up tight." But Dad's
not just worrying about us.
He's concerned about the grade
school kids. They grow up
watching casual sex on TV, and
violence made fun and exciting.
Criminals are heroes. Isn't
anything sacred anymore?
Think about it. Instead of
just brushing it off because
"Adventists don't do that
stuff"(pr do we?), think about
it. When we were kids, we wat-
ched Little House on the
Prairie. Now kids start out with
watching the PG and R rated
flicks they see on HBO. Soon
that won't be entertaining
enough, so they will watch
heavier and heavier stuff. How
far will they creep up the smut
ladder? What rung will they
reach without feeling that
anything is out of the ordinary
or wrong?
Sociologists say these films
are not healthy for the minds of
children and teenagers. They
can't be very good for us either.
We spend so much time pro-
tecting our environment. What
about protecting our minds?

If you like the unique sound
of an Australian accent, Diane
Fletcher is a good person to talk
to. She is a native of Sydney,
Australia, and has come to
Southern College this year to
teach home economics.
Fletcher first came to the
U.S. to a get a Master's Degree
at Pacific Union College. Then
she returned to Australia to
teach home ec at Avondale for
a year. After that stint, she
came back to the U.S. to get her
doctorate in home ec education
and nutrition at Texas
Women's University. She has
finished all the course work and
is now working on her diserta-
tion.
Miss Fletcher received her
original background in home ec
from her mother who is a dieti-
tian. The art of cooking and
sewing was sort of a family
tradition. Miss Fletcher was
cooking for the family on occa-
sions and sewing for contests by
the time she was twelve.
She became inspired to make
a careeer of it in seventh grade
when a home ec teacher taught
so poorly that she determined
to learn how to do it right.
There is saying that says: A
full stomach with homemade
clothes thrown in, is about all
some people think home ec is.
It certainly is more of a com-
plicated combination of science
and art than most people think
when one talks with someone
knowledgeable. Aside from the
usual nutrition and meal
management classes, Miss Flet-
cher also teaches classes in
quantity foods (mastering the
art of making food in big
amounts without wrecking the
taste) and teaches seminars in
home ec which cover current
research and topics with some
discussion on ethics. She is also
adding some new classes to next
year's bulletin called "Life
Skills" and "Creative
Cuisine."
Miss Fletcher has some in-
novative ideas like the Valen-
tine's cookies she helped in-
terested students to make. She
is creative and will add a lot to
Southern College. The Accent
welcomes her.
Dear Students,
Did you know that last year less than half the student body
voted in the S.A. elections? The enrollment last year was around
1400, yet less than 700 of you took the time to vote. Why didn't
more students vote?
Each year a part of your tuition goes to the Student Associa-
tion. The people you elect are the ones who will spend this money.
Don't you want to get your money's worth?
Read the qualifications and goals of the candidates. Decide who
to vote for, and then follow through with your decision and vote
on Feb. 21st. Vote for the candidate you feel will do the best job
for you, and the rest of the student body.
If elected I pledge to do my best to provide you with a paper
that you look forward to reading.
Sincerely,
/ Robert Jones
P.S. I would also do my bes! to have more correspondence from
and coverage in the paper about the happenings on the Orlando
campus, to further unify the two campuses.

The world's largest manufacturer of earth moving and industrial

Too Far To Walk?
Jack Wood
"Too far to walk" going
once, going twice, going twelve
times as an answer from college
students at Southern when
asked how they feel about at-
tending classes in Brock Hall.
In an informal poll, out of a
total of twenty students, twelve
mentioned that the walk is too
long. It seems that the distance
between the dorms or other
school buildings and the 2.3
million dollar classroom-and-
office building has students
leaving fifteen minutes earlier
for class.
Freshman Maribel Soto said,
"It is much too far to walk for
just one class." She explained
that her other classes are all
located in buildings situated
close together, and she finds it
very irritating to walk all the ex-
tra way for one class. Another
student voiced her opinion by
saying that the school should

have built Brock Hall closer.
When asked to elaborate, she
replied, "They should have
torn down Jones Hall earlier
and built it there."
Most students showed a
positive attitude towards the
new structure, but there still
was a hint of aggravation for
the long walk. Sophomore
Scott Clemons says, ' 'The
building is neat, a lot nicer to
attend than the other buildings,
but I freeze my can off walking
to it in the winter.
The question is now brought
up whether or not there should
be a longer break in between
classes to allow students enough
time to hike from one end of
campus to the other. The
students find this idea to be a
way to deal with the ac-
cumulated tardies because of
the long walk.
The National Debt
The national debt, according to 3rd District Congresswoman
Marilyn Lloyd, will be the primary topic of upcoming Congres-
sional sessions. The Congresswoman met with Reagan aides last
week and says that all agree that if the budget deficit is not dimi-
nished, Reagan's 973-billion-dollar-fiscal budget will push interest
rates even higher. Lloyd added that cuts in Social Security and
economic development programs are not the way to pay for the
national debt.
New Jail and Court Systems
The local city county jail committee is settled on a consultant to
study the possibility of merging all the separate jail and court
systems. Committee Vice-Chairman Tom Caldwell says that
Moyer and Associates will look at 3 different options, all of which
would keep the facilities in the downtown area, Moyer will charge
about 50,000 dollars for the work. Committee members feel that
this is a relative bargain.
Farmers Rally
Five thousand South Dakota farmers attended a big rally in Pierre
Tuesday to draw attention to conditions they say have pushed 9000
South Dakotan food producers to the steps of bankruptcy court.
Other farmers say that they need help in securing loans so they
can plant next spring. They also need help re-structuring the loans
that they now have that carry such high interest rates they can
barely pay the interest alone.
Good company and good
discourse are the very
sinews of virtue.

Hey Double A! One ques-
tion. "Why so fast?" You
think you're worn out after a
game? You ought to see the
fans drag themselves out of
their seats messaging the backs
of their necks. I was watching
a Double A game with a friend
of mine once. After 1 5 minutes
of fast break misses, in-
tercepted passes, and just
typical Double A run-and-gun
basketball, a light bulb ap-
peared over my friend's head.
Being a fitness buff he figured
with a Jazzercise tape he could
turn spectating into a form of
aerobics. The idea fell flat, but
a lesson can be learned. SLOW
THE GAME DOWNI1
You guys are trying to cram
2 hours of basketball into 40
minutes. It would be alright if
you guys could run the fast
break but the stats say that each
team is averaging 43 rebounds
per game per team. This simp-
ly means that a lot of shots are
being missed. On a related sub-
ject, the leading scorer in Dou-
ble A is shooting a paltry 34
percent but is leading the league
in rebounds. Could these re-
bounds be many of his own
shots?
Finally, let's lose those teeny
boppers that sit on your ben-
ches and walk up and down the
sidelines yelling instructions to
the players. Do these girls know
the game better than you guys
or what? Come on, put them
back in the stands where they
belong, flirting with other spec-
tators. Also, next time ask them
not to wear such bright, ob-
vious colors.
This is not to downgrade
Double A basketball. You guys
have worked hard to get where
you are now— you deserve it.
Just don't make every play
seem like there's only two
seconds on the clock. Take the
fastbreak if it's there, but if not
slow it down and set up the
shot. Oh, and remember, you
DO have teammates!
Next week look in "Hefty's
Bag." I'm sure you won't want
10 miss it!

PLAYERS OF THE WEEK
Week of February 6-12
"AA" League - Ken Warren (30 pts., 35 rebounds
in victory over Green)
"A" League - David Denton (39 pts, good hustle and
playing in loss to Davis)
"B" League - Ernie Pheirim (26 pts. in win over
Starbird)
Women's League - Leilani Pasos (15 pts. in win over
Hilderbrandt)
Green 52 Hilderbrandt 38
Leilani Pasos and Captain Dyer Ron-
da Green each pumped in 12 points in
Green's victory over Debbie Hilder-
brandi's team Tuesday evening. Cap-
tain Green shot well all evening and
Pasos controlled the boards while get-
ting support from Pauline James (6
points), and Latonya Scurry (4 points)
in posting their fourth victory of the
season. Hilderbrandt was led by Bren-
daBelden, who had 12 points, and Lucy
Felix who added 10. It wasn't enough
though, as Hilderbrandl's record drop-
ped to 1-6.
Co-captain Ken Warren scored 30
points and pulled down 35 rebounds in
McFadden's win over Green Tuesday
evening. McFadden shot out to an ear-
ly lead and kept pouring it on as Green's
team suffered from poor shooting and
the fact that Iain Davis collected four
fouls with six minutes left in the first
half. At one point in the first half,
McFadden led 42-17. Green hacked
away at the lead and twice came within
10 points during the second half.
Charlie Green then came off the bench
to score six quick points and helped
McFadden rebuild their lead. Henry
Coleman added 25 points for McFad-
den who recorded their fourth win of
the season. Green was led by twin
towers Davis and Mark Murphy who
each poured in 22 points.
Hobbs 67 Selby 66
Hobbs oudasted Selby in overtime to
post a one-point-win. With only 3
seconds to play in regulation David
Smith hit a three pointer to send the
game into overtime. Fullbright and
Gerke combined for 30 points to lead
their team, while Ron Aguilera scored
21 points (3 of which were three-
pointers) to lead all scorers, and Der-
rick Richardson chipped in 10 in a fine
effort.
Davis 98 Wise 73
Davis' team had four players in double
figures and Davis himself scored 40
points to lead his team to a 25 points
blowout of Wise. The only bright spot
for Wise was the great effort turned in
by Freshman David Denton who scored
39 points to try to keep the game close.
But the offense of Davis was not to be
stopped in this game, with Nottleson
keeping Davis' team fired up and chip-
ping in 4 points to boot.

diture of $8,505, while
Oakwood has the privilege of
being the cheapest, estimating
only $5,649 for an average stu-
dent budget. But there is one
catch to the low figure
Oakwood claims. Being a
minority college, they are heavi-
ly subsidized by conference and
government agencies. This
allows them to have an artificial
low.
So who stands next in line?
You guessed it-SCI Southern's
1984-1985 estimated student
budget was $6,980. The school
next up the ladder is
Southwestern, charging $7,192
for a school year.
You might argue that $6,980
is still a high price compared to
overall costs at a public univer-
sity. That is true. But a private
institution does not have the
monetary advantages that a
public university has. Nor does
a university have the Christian
education that our private
schools offer.
So when you come down to
the bottom line, even amidst
rising costs and inflation, SC is
still cheap. Not cheap in quali-
ty, but cheap in price!

feses, education proponents

rate many of the worst fears
iressed by educators since the
member election.
id while education groups
it year succeeded in pressur-
Congress to overrule most
the president's education
Jts, officials worry they may
' as lucky this time.
gan wants to cut next
student aid budget by
billion, a 27 percent
crease from the $9 billion
ropriated for the current fun-
year, according to Educa-
Department spokesman
mean Helmrich.
Under Reagan's plan, the en-
education budget would be
'shed by nearly $3 billion-
°m $18.4 billion to $15.5
lion-for the upcoming fiscal
'But (the current $18.4
jlion budget) includes a $750
1 appropriation for pay-
er" of prior Pell Grants and
Guaranteed Student Loans
(GSLs) debts, so we're really
only talking about a little over
a $2 billion cut," Helmrich
says.
Student aid will suffer most
of the decrease.
Under Reagan's proposal:
Students with family incomes
over $32,500 will be cut from
the GSL program, beginning
with the 1986-87 school year.
Those with family incomes
above $25,000 would be denied
Pell Grants, National Direct
Student Loans (NDSLs), or
College Work-Study funds.
The State Student Incentive
Grant and Supplemental
Educational Opportunity Grant
programs will be eliminated.
Assistance programs for in-
ternational education, foreign
language study, and the Fund
for the Improvement of Post-
Secondary Education will be
cut drastically or eliminated.
Funding will be frozen for
remedial education, block
grants, handicapped education,
bilingual learning programs,
and vocational and adult
education programs.
Needless to say, Reagan's
proposals are drawing harsh
criticism from education
groups.
"We see (the proposals)
very major assault on education
and student aid," says Dallas
Martin, executive director of
the National Association of
Student Financial Aid Ad-
ministrators.
"More than one million
students will be made ineligible
by the $25,000 ceiling on the
Pell Grant, NDSL, and Work-
Study programs," Martin
contends.
"Roughly one million more
will be displaced by the $32,500
cap on GSLs, and another
300,000 will be affected by the
cuts in state grant programs,"
he predicts.
Congress must still review
and approve Reagan's pro-
posals, or pass its own version
of the education budget.
Martin frets he and his col-
leagues face a hard battle to
beat back the proposed cuts.
"We're in a totally different
environment this year," he ex-
plains. "Last year was an elec-
tion year and no one wanted to
do anything too unpopular."
This year, he says, "because
of the tremendous pressure to
control the deficit, we should
not assume that Congress will
automatically step in and reduce the c

Dr. Gary Swinger, assistant

evening workshop, "Update:
AIDS, Hepatitis, and the Un-
fortunate Five Percent," next
Thursday at Southern College
of Seventh-day Adventists.
Scheduled for February 21 at

of current knowledge and
unanswered questions concerc-
ing AIDS (Acquired Immune

hepatitis, as well as a film con-
cerning nosocomial infection-
"The Unfortunate Five
Percent."
"An estimated 1000 to 1500
people are being newly infected
with the AIDS virus weekly,"
states Dr. Swinger. "With near-
ly 4000 deaths having already
occured in the U.S., AIDS had
become one of the most
devastating and perplexing
medical problems of recent
history."
His discussion of hepatitis
will review the various forms of
hepatitis. Dr. Swinger will also
outline recommendations for

Dr. Swinger has two master's
degrees in public health, from
the University of Michigan and

m Shh! This Is a Library
I often want to hear those words when I am in the library. Un-
foJlate,r?do not. The noise in that facility .s too ou ^ when
one considers that a library >s supposed o be a qu et place to
study. In my experiences with libranes, pubhc or private the noise
level was kept to a minimum, if there was any noise at aU. This
is not a characteristic of the McKee Library. Last semester while
studying on the third floor, all of a sudden, I heard an individual,
also on the third floor, yell to someone at die library counter below
us In reply, someone from below yeUed back. To my surprise,
neither one was told to keep his voice low. Considering the act
a rare incident, I eventually forgot about it. However, in subse-
quent trips, the noise at times seemed to be just as great. I pointed
out this fact to the Head Librarian, Mr. Charles Davis, and since
then, the situation has improved. The problem does not fall en-
tirely on his shoulders, but the library is still noisy!
There are places in the McKee Library that are very quiet, such
as the Reference Room and the Nursing Lab. But why should a
student be driven to one of these places if in theory, the whole
library is supposed to be quiet. The noise level is particularly high
on the second floor in the afternoon. This area is the place where
one checks out books, enters and exits, and does his primary
research, so understandably, there is a certain amount of noise
that should be tolerated. But if one finds that his studying leads
him to the library, and he wishes to study at a second floor car-
rel, then he should not be driven to another area because the later
one is quieter.
The logical situation is for the library personnel to emphasize
to any individual that talks above a whisper to keep his voice low.
The act is not a pleasing one but comes with the job. Because
loud talkers are not asked to lower their voices, some students
fail to realize that the McKee Library is supposed to be a quiet
facility, and not a social area. When this act is done, more students
will find the library a logical alternative for studying.
CLOSER THAN YOU THINK
Dear Editor,
Letter to the Editor. ..concern-
ing the article "Too Far To
Walk" by Jack
Wood... February 14 issue of
Southern Accent... page 5...
Please remember, "Opinions
expressed in letters and by-lined
articles are the OPINION OF
THE AUTHOR..."
The flip-side of the same issue
is that it's not too far to walk
to Brock. I agree, of course,
that the distance is more than
the walk to the music building,
but by only a few dozen more
steps. Maybe we should ask the
administration to supply a high
speed monorail between the
Student Center and Brock Hall.
Just a thought...
And while I'm at it, a big
thank-you to Lori Heinsman
for her work entitled "Frank-
ly, My Dear, I Don't Give A
Flip." We do need to protect
our minds as much as possible
from exposure to psychological
garbage. To say nothing of pur-
posely exposing them...

Dear Editors:
This letter is in response to
Harry Brown Ill's article,
"Why A Black History Week, "
in your February 14 issue. Mr.
Brown's response to the ques-
tion, "Why have Black History
Week and not Chinese History
Week or some other ethnic
history week?", does not, in
my opionion, answer the ques-
tion. He says that a group who
is treated as he describes,
reserves the right to celebrate
man's realization of equality
for all. First, if Black History
Week is a celebration of equali-
ty of all, then why is it tilted so
narrowly. Why is it not a
"Brotherhood Week" (or non-
sex "Peoplehood").
His entire argument of
equality, acceptance, reuniting
brothers and sisters has little to
do with a Black History Week.
Black History Week is a focus
on the black race as a special
race deserving special treatment
because of injustices heaped
upon it in Lie past. Black
History Week can be fairly
defended because of this past

Is Judging on the Menu
. Lily a Wagner
I deposited my luggage at the
Icet counter and wandered
ough the airport. My hectic
to turn in the rented car on
had left me somewhat

ondered. I mused about
I restaurants I had known,
p my stomach kept telling
mind to DO
4ETHING!
hen as I rounded the cor-
eyes focused on a sign-
: Good Earth Food Bar! No
ivitation needed! I
nptly took the remaining
at the counter and reached
i menu. Business boomed;
ful personnel dashed
nd, trying to meet the
[ands of customers' as
hungry as I. While I waited I
pondered over the menu and
scrutinized my seatmates.
Right next to me sat a cou-
ple of neatly-dressed, well-
behaved, rather solemn young
men. Aha! I thought. Mis-
sionaries from a well-known ac-
tive denomination based in
Utah. I decided I wasn't in any
mood to hear a mini-sermon. I
quickly turned my attention to
the menu and ignored the other
customers. Then I noticed that
the young man closest to me
had just received his order, and
it looked exactly like what I
wanted to eat! I glanced back
at my menu, but couldn't
discover just what that tantaliz-
ing item might be. Curiosity
and hunger won out. I turned
to the young man and asked,
"What's that, and where is it
on the menu?"
That led to the beginning of
a pleasant conversation. I spoke
cautiously, not wanting to be
drawn into some religious ex-
change at that moment. After
a while he asked, "Are you on
a business trip?"
"Yes," I replied. "I'm a col-
lege English teacher, and I'm
out here in Philadelphia for a
convention."
He grimaced, then said with
a wry smile, "I've had my share
of them--when I was a
student."
"What do you do now?" No
sooner had I said that when I
thought, uh-oh, I just gave him
the opening he needed.
He answered, "I'm a profes-
sional hockey player with the
Detroit Redwings."
My astonishment must have
showed. He smiled. "Haven't
you ever met a professional
hockey player before?"
I hadn't. Neither did I
remember being caught quite so
off guard before. An interesting
conversation followed. I learn-
ed much about professional
hockey, broken noses (his
slightly crooked nose had been
broken four times), and
violence in sports. He listened
politely to talk of English
teaching and Seventh-day
Adventists.
Our meal ended and we
dashed off to catch our flights.
I 'm not sure what he took away
from that encounter, but I
learned once again not to be
hasty in judging people.
"...God sees not as man sees,
for man looks at the outward
appearance, but the Lord looks
at the heart." (1 Sam. 16:7,
New American Standard)
Life gives us abundant op-
portunities forjudging others;
this is true in the collegiate set-
ting as well. Does that daily
routine include some judging
perhaps? Faculty see many
faces in their classes. Do they
give students a chance to prove
themselves, or do they make
snap judgments just like I did
with my friend the hockey
player? Students meet faculty A
whose names have previously ^&
been simply names on a roster.
Do students also make snapj
judgments and thereby possibly
hinder their own learning as
well as a potentially positive
relationship with faculty? Peo-
ple meet. People judge. Does it
have to be inevitable?
No matter how perceptive we
think we are, we DO make
mistakes in judgment—
particularly in the area of
human nature. Let's give each
other a proper chance, and
avoid that unnecessary item on
life's menu-judging!

LET ME EXPLAIN
Dear Editors,
Many individuals had trou-
ble understanding the meaning
of the "Declaration of In-
dependence" in their day, so it
is not surprising that students,
administrators, and friends of
Southern College have trouble
understanding the revision
printed in the February 14,
1985, issue of the Southern
Accent.
For several years now, the
voter turnout for election of
Student Association officers
has dwindled. Why don't more
students campaign, why don't
more students vote? Could it be
that they have had bad ex-
periences with former elections
and administrations, or is it
that students just don't feel that
their vote will count. Whatever
of the
"Declaration of Indepen-
dence," is meant to be a
guideline in future campaigns
and administrations.
Honesty should be involved
in all future campaigns and ad-
ministrations, "...the Laws of
the Student Association and of
the Student Association Con-
stitution entitle them a decent
respect to the opinions of the
students..."

THANK YOU FOR NO CLASSES
Dear Editors,
The faculty and administration
of Southern College deserve a
magnanimous "Thank You,"
for not conducting morning I
classes on Tuesday, the 12th of
February because of bad
weather, or was it in observa-
tion of Lincoln's Birthday?
Whatever the occasion, the
decision by Dr. Allen, Wagner
and their cohorts was very
much appreciated!!!!
Many students had a great
time throwing, falling in and
photographing the magnificent
blessing. And Southern College
was even on the radio, with all
the other area school closings.
Were there any students
wondering what to do? Not to
my knowledge.
THANK YOU SC!

Because Spring
Break will start next
Thursday after-

Denver-Be it a touch of
divine intervention or just good
business, the Padre Restaurant,
run by the Denver area's largest
Catholic parish, is a secular
The Disciples are sand-
wiches, the Prodigal Son a
hamburger, and the Pontiff-at
$11.95 the most expensive
menu item-bone\ess prime rib.
Also on the menu is the
Mother Superior club and
Adam's Pride and Eve's
Pleasure-also known as chef
and shrimp salads.
The Rev. Fred McCallin was
inspired to open the Padre 10
years ago. With the Rocky
Mountains as a backdrop, it sits
about 20 miles south of
downtown Denver, off In-
terstate 25.
The parish-run restaurant
naturally follows the example
set by Christ, who "multiplied
the loaves and fishes many
times" and dined with many of
those whose lives he touched,
McCallin says.
Housed inside the large,
starkly modern brick complex
that is the St. Thomas More
Center, the Padre has some of
the trappings of a chic fem bar,
including greenery and stained
glass. But there are pews in the
lobby for those waiting for a
table, and McCallin table-hops
in his black-and-white garb.
Despite the priest's presence
and the clever menu, Catholi-
cism is not the main course.
The Padre is frequented by
business people and families
who do not belong to the
parish, and rabbis and Protes-
tant ministers also drop in.
That's the idea, McCallin
says.
"It's a meeting place where
people who know nothing
about Catholics have an oppor-
tunity to meet Catholics, and
College Bowl Nears End
Melanie Boyd
The final games of the Col-
lege Bowl are now upon us. In
the past two semifinal rounds
we saw, on Thurs., Feb. 14,
Duerksen defeating Duncan.
Duerksen was off to a running
start, with an impressive
answering of questions. Then
during the middle of play, Dun-
can launched their comeback to
tie Duerksen only momentari-
ly. However, Duerksen
couldn't be stopped and won
the game for a final score of
215-230.
On Monday the 18th, we saw
the last match of the semifinals.
The two teams playing were
Hobbs and Goodrum. Hobbs
took an early lead in the game,
but Goodrum quickly came
back to go on top by a large
margin. Gradually, Hobbs
began to close the gap between
them and eventually tied the
score. Up until the end of the
game, both teams were running
virtually neck and neck. Then
toward the last few minutes of
the game, Goodrum surged
ahead to defeat Hobbs 240-210.
Tuesday, February 26, the
College Bowl final will be held
at chapel, featuring Duerksen
versus the winner of the
Goodrum/Duncan match.
we have an opportunity to meet
them," says the spry, cheerful
man of 71.
"Not that we're going to go
out and evangelize them."
In fact, there is a mezuza, a
container of prayers placed on
the doors of Jewish
households, found usually on
the Padre door. "Rabbis have
come out here and enjoyed the
fact that we have one,"
McCallin said.
The Padre pays taxes and is
run like any other restaurant,
says its general manager, Don
Mestnik.
McCallin says the restaurant,
which offers "good food and
generous portions at affordable
prices," usually breaks even.
Anything left over goes into
parish coffers.
A drawing of a roly-poly
padre decorates the menu, pro-
mising "Heavenly Food,
Spirits, and More!"
Cashier Nancy Olsen says the
menus are a hit with surprised,
first-time diners.
"We can't keep enough
menus in hand, ' ' she says,
laughing. "They want to take
them home for proof."
Dinners can be topped off
with Satan's Temptations such
as mud pie or cheesecake, and
coffee is in the "Fire and
Brimstone" category.
The Padre has a license to
serve Heavenly Hops (beer) and
Holy Spirits (the hard stuff),
which comes in handy when
banquets and wedding recep-
tions are held in the parish com-
plex. And, of course, there's

An 80's malady
Campus News Digest Service
Apathy: it's a national pro-
blem, especially among teens.
Adolescent behavior experts see
more and more teenagers with
similar symptoms-they're
bored, depressed and unable to
think realistically about their
future.
Although many parents and
teachers may think teenagers
are just " going through a
stage." the problem is deeper,
and depression can have scary
effects. In the past 20 years,
teenage suicides have tripled,
according to the American
Association of Sucidology in
Denver. An increasing number
of adolescents are being
hospitalized for depression.
After high school, an increas-
ing number of grown
children-20 million in 1982-stay
at home rather than find a place
of their own.
Psychologist Elaine Moor,
director of an intervention pro-
gram at Ada S. McKinley Com-
munity Services in Chicago, has
seen more teens who are
depressed and apathetic in the
past five years, teens who "are
unequipped to make the tran-
sition from late childhood to
self-sufficient young
adulthood."
Moor believes that a major
reason stems from overprotec-
tion by parents, who sometimes
make excuses for child ir-
responsibility. Adolescents can-
not learn the consequence of
their actions if parents cover for
them. It "creates an unreal
world for them."
Another effect pf over-
protection is a self-centered,
"the world owes me" attitude.
Moor says teens can turn to
depression and apathy when
they realize they are underskill-
ed to make it in the world.
Society is partly to blame for
the confusion during teen years.
The nuclear threat, interna-
tional upheaval, high
unemployment and rising prices
brings about the future when it
might not even come?".
Our high-tech, fast-paced
world of communications con-
trasts sharply with the
classroom, and teen apathy cai
transfer to teacher apathy.
MTV, the cable music station,
may also contribute to disorien-
tation because of the
glamorous, artsy portrayal of
musicians, fashions, etc.
All right. All this is depress-
ing enough. What can be done
to help?
Teenage apathy should not
be ignored, hoping it will be
outgrown, Moor says. A.
reassertion of adult authority,
setting appropriate teenage
behavior patterns and giving in-
creasing responsibility will help
teens face the reality of becom-
ing adults.

Plans for Memorial Auditorium
The April opening of the Trade Center might cut into the
business customarily directed toward the Memorial Auditorium.
Manager Clyde Hawkins says that he has plans to make
auditorium business "boom." "We hate to lose any event," Clyde
said, "but it will open up dates we haven't been able to utilize.
The live events are ticketed events which bring much more of a
revenue than an exhibit show." Hawkins also pointed out that
fundraising functions are another way to drum up money to
renovate Memorial Auditorium into a fabulous concert hall.

Missile Trap in Canada
President Reagan is putting lots of time and money towards fin-
ding the "ultimate defense" against incoming missiles. Tuesday
morning over remote Northern Canada peace activist were try-
ing something a bit less sophisticated, hoping to disrupt a free
flight of an American cruise missile. The activist placed weather
balloons in the flight path of the B-52. The B-52, carrying the
unarmed missile, left North Dakota on schedule Tuesday morn-
ing. The protestors were hoping to snag the craft as it passed
overhead.
Plane Crash
In the mountains above Bilboa, Spain, Tuesday morning, an
Iberian Airliner 727 crashed and burned with 147 passengers on
board. At first, correspondents believed there were survivors, but
now they confirm they have found none. The Bolivian Labour
Minister was killed in the crash, and three members of the
minister's party were also among the victims. The cause of the
crash was unknown as of Tuesday.
Another Plane Down
A China arlines jumbo jet was forced to make an emergency
landing Tuesday in San Francisco after hitting a wind sheer and
dropping 32,000 feet. More than 50 passengers were injured when
the plane was forced down after a rapid change in the wind speed
and direction.
Public Prayer
The Supreme Court said Tuesday it will rule on whether public
schools can allow students to meet during school hours for prayer
and religious worship. The justice says that it will review over-

Rees Series Weekend
Begins Tonight
R
7. Randolph Thuesdee
The Rees Series, the highlight
of Southern College's basket-
ball season, begins tonight with
the first game beginning at 7:00
i. As the traditional end to
the basketball intramural
ion, the Rees Series tourna-
ment is one not only enjoyed by
those who play, but also for
those who attend.
The Rees Series was named
in honor of Dr. C. N. Rees,
President of Southern Mis-
sionary College from
1958-1967. Dr. Rees was an
avid basketball fan and when
he retired, the school held the
tournament in honor of him.
The Series began as a Dorm
vs. Village tournament based
on a best two-out-of-three, but
the format soon turned into
what has made the Series the
classic as it is today, class vs.
class.
Tonight's first game features
the Juniors vs. the Freshmen.
The Juniors, the second seeded
team, are comprised of David
Butler, Greg Cain, Steve
Carlson, Henry Coleman,
Mark Murphy, Doug Rowland-
Captain, Bob Rodgers, J. Ran-
dolph Thuesdee, and Tim
Wessman. The Juniors are
coached by Reed Christman,
who is coaching a Rees Series
team for the second time. The
Freshman are coached by Ron
Qualley and included on the
team are Mike Accardo, Kent
Boyle, Iain Davis, Toby
Fowler, Eric Hope, Jim
Malone, Jon Marcum, Bob
Murdoch, and Dave Nottleson.
The Freshmen are considered
the third seeded team, primari-
ly of (heir Rees Series
inexperience.
In tonight's second game, it's
the top-seeded team, the
Seniors, vs. the Fourth seeded
team, the Sophomores. Led by
Mike Gentry, the Senior team
includes Bob Stephan, Eric
Mock, Jon Miller, Vito Mon-
tiperto, Ron Aguilera, Jim
Hakes, Anthony Peets, and
Doug Copess. The Seniors are
coached by Everette Schlisner,
who is making his fifth straight
coaching assignment in the
Rees Series. The Sophomores
are coached by Mike
Meriweather. Meriweather is
making his second coaching
assignment and his team in-
cludes David Green, Tony
McFadden, Ken Warren,
Charley Green, Jeff Davis,
Kevin Williams, Rob Williams
and Loren Grant.
This promises to be a most
exciting time on the campus
and students are strongly en-
couraged to come out and root
for their respective classes.
Tonights victorious teams
will play a one game playoff
Saturday night after the con-
solation game between
tonight's losing teams. Satur-
day night's action gets under
way at 7:30 p.m.

Article Presents Theory to Extend Periodic Systems
The periodic system of

^umbers of atoms. An article
published by Dr.
[lefferlin-- professor of physics
Southern College who is cur-
fntly on sabbatical— by an
scientist, and by two
louthern College students, ex-
plains these results in the Jour-
mi of Quantitative Spec-
and Radiative
transfer.
The result of the work which
his article, and others, report
s that small molecules can be
arranged in geometric
harts'Just as can the atoms.
Thus there is strong evidence of
the natural world.
This design is called the
"periudic law;" heretofore, it
has been applied to atoms only.
The atomic and molecular
arrays display in concrete form
what everyone knows" and
they will allow the prediction of
numerical values of properties
for interesting molecules. Such
prediction has already been
done for neutral diatomic
molecules, and for neutral and
ionized quarked molecules. In
the former case, there is very
good agreement with subse-
quently found data.
R.A. Hefferlin is currently a
visiting professor of physics at
the University of Denver. Dr.
Hefferlin's colaborers are G. V.
Zhuvikin, a candidate for the
degree of Doctor of Physical
and Mathematical Sciences at
Leningrad State University; K.
E. Caviness (S.C. alumnus),
studying for his master's degree
in physics at the University of
Lowell, in Massachusetts; P. J.
Duerksen (S.C. alumna) work-
ing on her doctoral degree in
biochemistry at the Medical
School of Emory University, in
Atlanta.
The work was begun in Len-
ingrad, during the winter and
spring of 1981. Dr. Hefferlin
was an exchange scholar under
a program of the National
Academy of Sciences, which
administers many such ex-
changes on behalf of the United
States.

Competition: Good or Bad? Letters. . .
Nearly a month has gone by since the College Bowl season end-
ed. It ended with a champion who competed in a field of twelve
/--^ teams to reach that goal. When the team captains were forming
_y these groups, certain ones talked of individuals that had refused
to play because he/she felt that competition is wrong. But is it?
Each individual is entitiled to his opinion. If he believes that
competition is wrong, then he should not compete. The reasons
that have been given are the following: it glorifies one person over
another, it easily leads to tempers flaring, it leads to an unhealthy
amount of time being devoted to attaining a goal. All of these
problems are true of competition in general, but that should be
qualified. Competition isn't bad or wrong for a person; the love
of competition is.
When a person loves to compete, one finds that he is putting
an excessive amount of time in doing just that. Of course, in a
capitalistic society, a person cannot help but compete against his
fellow neighbor. However, the "obsessed" individual goes beyond
what competition cannot be avoided. What may be said is that
this person loves or dislikes himself so much that the competi-
tion is a way of stroking himself. Whether competition leads to
glorifying himself or the love himself leads to competing, .the truth
is that the subject or object of that sentence should be "the love
of competition".
My experience with competition has led me to believe that it
can be healthy for an individual. It has taught me to strive harder,
not for the purpose of glorifying myself, but for the purpose of
doing a job that I and others can appreciate. It has generated
friendships that I may not have made in another context. And
it has given me self-esteem. I am not an exception; others have
experienced the same.
To say that when an individual is playing some sport that he
is committing a wrong act is to have a limited view of competi-
tion (and of sports). Often friendships have been strengthened
because of the ineraction on a ball field. A parallel may be found
in the world of technology. The better car, the better computer,
the better household appliance has been made because of com-
petition. Of course, there are other motives for making the bet-
ter "anything," but man still is the one who profits (not necessari-
ly economically in this case).
Competition is healthy. The love of competition isn't.
SC CHEAP • RIGHT! "
Dear Editor
In response to the front page
headline in last week's Southern
Accent, "SC-Cheap,"
SC is cheap:
If your father is an Arab Sheik or
If your mother is a brain surgeon
If your mother, the brain
surgeon, is married to your
father, the Arab Sheik or
If you are between trips to the
Riviera
If you need the tuition expense as
a tax write off or
If you have "family connections"
in Columbia or
If your name ends in one or more
of the following: Rockefeller,
loccoca, Hughes or
If you know a "back door" into
the computer program in the
financial aid office or
If the sticker price on your car
equals the sum total of the cars
in one or more of the faculty
parking lots or
If you live in the student park,
eat berries and roots, and raid
trash cans for books, pencils, and
paper.

A BRUISED PEACH
Dear Editor:
When I first read "How to
be a Pastor's Peach" by
Reinhold Smith (Feb. 21), I ad-
mit it was amusing. I even
laughed out loud at the bit
about the screwdriver. But I
read it again and began to feel
a certain uneasiness with the
subtle underlying ridicules this
article presented. At the very
first, I find Smith's article an
affront to women in particular,
and more specifically, to wives,
girlfriends, and fiances of
religion or theology majors.
For Smith to assume that to-
day's only satisfaction comes
from the legalistic ritual of
adhering to archaic (and stupid)

BRUISED PEACH II
If the Southern Accent (and
you too, I would assume) do
not allow ethnic jokes to be
published, why do you allow
gender jokes? Referring to
"How to be a Pastor's Peach,"
I would like to call Mr. Smith's
attention (and anyone else's) to
the fact that there is a place for
this kind of writing-arid that's
in the individual's personal
files. Don't publish this kind of
stuff, please. It may be deem-
ed funny by some, and I admit
I laughed, but let's keep in
mind that this is a CHRIS-
TIAN environment. We can all
enjoy our school and be proud
of it. I find no place for mak-
ing ANY one look ridiculous.
Accentuate the positive and
eliminate trie negative. Even the
"jokes." (Some think vulgar
jokes are funny. So be it.)

the competition among Pre-
Med majors. The good news
for one of these latter students
is when he or she receives an ac-
ceptance letter from a medical
school.
Recently, Loma Linda
University's School of Medicine
gave a partial list of accepted
students. Six students from
Southern College were on the
list: Susan Ermer, Marcella

Academic Dean, Dr. Rene
Evard, Loma Linda's Associate
Dean for Admissions, noted
that his school's selection is not
over yet and that other students
should be accepted
subsequently.

The Christian and Relationships
An Interview with Alberta Mazat
3
O
Lori Selby
Last week, Dr. Alberta
Mazat spoke on relationships
for Southern College's Week of
Spiritual Emphasis. Every
evening she stressed the impor-
tance of establishing strong
relationships with male and
female friends and husbands
and wives. Dr. Mazat also gave
advice on how to strengthen
these relationships.
In an interview with the
Southern Accent, Dr. Mazat
reitorated these points while
allowing us to know more
about her.
Accent: What is your title or
role?
Mazat: I am a professor of
Marriage and Family Therapy
in the Department of Social
Relations at Loma Linda
University.
Accent: When did you get in-
to counseling?
Mazat: I decided to go back
to school after our youngest
daughter started grade one. I
had been a nurse before, so I
wanted something that used the
ability to interact with people.
I got a Bachelor's degree in
Sociology and a master's degree
with emphasis on Marriage and
Family Counseling.
Accent: How do you like it?
Mazat: I love it! I love
teaching; I'm inspired and stret-
ched in my teaching experience.
I also like counseling and group
therapy. I don't have a large
practice, but all the teachers
have an ongoing private prac-
tice, so they will be in the pro-
cess of actually doing what they
are teaching.
Accent: What about your
family and other outside
interests?
Mazat: My husband is an
anesthesiologist who works for
the university. We have four
children. We love to travel, we
sing for several organizations,
and we walk every day. I love
to read.
Accent: Many practices seem
to be more acceptable today
than they used to be. Does the
Christian lifestyle change as
society changes?
Mazat: I think the lifestyles
change; I don't think God's
principles for our life change.
It used to be that all men wore
beards. When they took them
off, it grew bad to wear a
beard. Now it's back to being
O.K. Styles change, but God's
principles, moral values, never
change.
Accent: How has the sexual
revolution affected Christian
lifestyles?
Mazat: Societal changes
seem to affect Christian groups,
too. You can find Christian
groups who will accept
premarital experimentation and
growing will be going
backwards. Helping marriage
to grow should be a pleasure,
but there must be effort, invest-
ment, and involvement. That's
all necessary.
Accent: What steps can
young people take to avoid hav-
ing a marriage that ends up as
an unfortunate statistic?
Mazat: Marriages never first
suddenly fall apart. They
disintegrate over time, begin-
ning with just not working on
the marriage, dwelling on the
negatives, considering divorce
as an alternative, and finally
goind ahead and doing it. I
think that keeping your own
personal relationship with God
is of prime importance, also
time spent sharing devotions
with one another. And on the
social side-spending time
together, keeping their sexual
relationship vital, taking advan-
tage of good church programs
for marriage enrichment. Being
very much aware that a mar-
riage doesn't last without con-
stant stoking of the fires-
demonstrations of love and af-
fection, treats, poems, notes,
all kinds of things. I think I can
even some open marriage type
things for people who are mar-
ried. But to me no sex before
marriage is a moral standard.
There's safety within the boun-
daries God has given us for sex-
ual expression.
Accent: How has divorce af-
fected families in the Adventist
church? Why?
Mazat: We have a lower level
of commitment to marriage.
Our expectations of marriage
are much higher than they us-
ed to be. We expect marriage to
fulfill all our physical, social,
and emotional needs, and if it

doesn't, we give it up too easi-
ly. Divorce isn't less traumatic,
but it is less frowned upon. In-
stead of working on the one
they've got, people in this ex-
pendable society give up on the
first marriage and try again.
Unfortunately, the failure rate
for second marriages is even
worse than for first marriages.
That should tell us something.
I have a lot of optimism when
people recognize that marriages
have to be worked on, that they
don't come naturally. It's

Gooodrum Captures College Bowl
Championship
Melanie Boyd
The championship round of
the College Bowl was played
during chapel on Tuesday, the
26th of February. The two
teams playing against each
other were Russell Duerksen
and Keith Goodrum.
Duerksen's team members
were Ron Aguilera, Heather
Blomeley, and Tim Lale.
Goodrum's team consisted of
Rob Clayton, Fred Liebrand,
Kevin Rice, and Erin Stton.
Excitement was in the air,
only between the two
teams, but in the audience as
well. As play got under way,
Duerksen took an early com-
manding lead. However,
Goodrum's team began a
quick, steady comeback. Upon
taking the lead, Goodrum slow-
ly increased it to a 200-85 point
spread. Duerksen frantically
tried to bridge that point gap,
but each time Duerksen
answered a question, Goodrum
was able to answer the subse-
quent one. The final score was
265-180, Goodrum's victory.
C.F.H. Henry to Speak
for Staley Lecture Series
Because the College Bowl is
a double-elimination tourna-
ment and Duerksen had entered
the final undefeated, a
10-minute tie breaker game was
played, deciding the champions
of the 1985 College Bowl.
As play began in the final
match, Duerksen answered the
first question, but Goodrum
once again took the lead and
captured the johampionship in
an 80-10 win."
Congratulations to Good-
rum's team for his victory.

Arizona State Student Sues Father for Education
Expenses
Claiming "severe mental anguish" 18-year-old Elise Ely wants
$250,000 from her father who refuses to honor a 1978 separation
agreement to pay her living expenses while she attends college.
When the Ely's divorced in 1978, Mr. Ely agreed to pay educa-
tion expenses and $250 a month child support for Elise, says Brian
Kelley, Mr. Ely's attorney.
But the support payments ended on Elise's 18th birthday, and
Mr. Ely said her said her request for $1,400 a month in college
expenses was too much.
Divorce is Cheap Compared to Out-of-State Tuition
A North Texas State woman plans to save about $1 ,000 in tui-
tion by her $7 December marriage to and future $5 1 divorce from
a Texas man.
When the woman discovered she was credits short of her plan-
ned December graduation, a Texas resident friend suggested they
marry to cut her spring tuition bill from $1,300 to $300.
"1 didn't apply for a student loan because 1 wasn't planning
on being in school another semester," the woman says. "By the
time I found all this out, it was too late (to apply)."
The students, who live apart, won't give their names fearing
the university will sue them for willfully defrauding the state.

team Tuesday night, Lounsberry's goal

Where Did the Midwest Go?
Associated Press
Americans see the Middle
West, the mythical heartland of
the country from which the na-
tion draws its values, as mov-
ing farther west as the East
becomes less rural, a survey
indicates.
Based upon their location,
Americans have different ideas
about where the "Midwest" is
located, says a study published
Sunday. But many seem to
agree that the heartland is not
where it used to be, the report
said.
James R. Shortridge, a pro-
fessor of geography at the
University of Kansas, says a
survey of 1,941 college students
nationwide indicates the
Midwest has now moved to the
Great Plains states and left
behind traditionally considered
as part of the Middle West,
such as Illinois and Michigan.
The term Middle West
evokes images of farms, small
towns and friendly people, he
says, and as the reality of these
images moves farther west, so
do people's ideas of where this
region is located.
Most Americans now think
of the Midwwest as the central
region of the country that in-
cludes Nebraska, Iowa, Kan-
sas, South Dakota and
Missouri, the report says.
"The vernacular region has
shifted westward," Shortridge
says. "Omaha and Lincoln,
Neb., lie near the region's
heart."
People began developing the
myth of the Midwest as the true
heartland of America around
1880, he said in a telephone
interview.
"The East, which had been
considered the core of values,
was perceived as being full of
foreigners who had strange
religions and values," he said.
"The 'true America' was then
thought to be in the rural
Midwest of the day, where peo-
ple worked hard, practiced Jef-
fersonian democracy and
upheld 'traditional' values."
Since the beginning of this
century, the Middle West tradi-
tionally had been described by
social scientists and writers as
the 12 states extending from
Ohio westward through Kansas
and northward to the Canadian
border, he reports in the Annals

Any radio station ought to have

Safety Awareness Day Kicks Off Today
March 21 has been
designated Campus Wide Safe-
ty Awareness Day. The Student
Health Service is the sponsor of
the event and has invited
twenty-two state, county, and
local agencies, as well as certain
auxiliaies, to show their
displays on safety awareness.
Eleanor Hanson, R.N.,
related that some of the agen-
cies that will be participating in
the event are the American Red
Cross, the Tennessee Depart-
ment of Safety, the Food and
Drug Administration, and the
Chattanooga Speech and Hear-
ing Center.
Some of the topics of the
displays are fire safety, sports
and recreational safety, crime
protection, and motor vehicle
operation safety.
Mrs. Hanson cites three
reasons why a safety fair is be-
ing put on this year: 1) A poll
taken a few years ago showed
that safety is the health educa-
tion topic students are most
concerned with. 2) The Health
Service has found time this year
to arrange the programs
because fewer illnesses have oc-
curred on campus. 3) The fair
allows healthy students to
benefit from the Health
Service.
The staff of the Health Ser-
vice encourages students to take
time out and look at some of
the displays. The agencies will
have their booths set up outside
the Health Service, in the Stu-
dent Center, and in the McKee
Library.
Song Of A Frustrated Calculus Student
(To the tune of "I Can't Fight This Feel-
ing" by REO Speedwagon)
Lori Heinsman
I can't do my calculus any longer
And yet I'm still afraid to let it go
What started out as friendship has grown older
I only wish I had the strength to let it show
1 tell myself that I can't do this forever
I say there is no reason for my fear
But I feel so insecure when we're together
You give my life distraction
You- make everything so drear
And even as I wander
I'm keeping you in sight
You're a thorn in my side
On an otherwise pleasant night
And I'm getting further than I ever thought I mi
And I can't fight this feeling anymore
I've forgetten why I like this class before
It's time to drop this book onto the floor
And throw away the Solutions Manual forever
Oh, I can't do my' calculus anymore
I've forgetten all the math I knew before
And if I have to crawl upon the floor
Go crashing through the Records Office door
t take this calculus anymore!
College Press Service
A transfer student successful-
ly'has challenged-at least for
the moment-one of the na-
tion's last honor systems to re-
quire students to snitch on cam-
pus cheaters.
Princeton inadvertently has
admitted Wade Randlett, 20,
despite Randlett's refusal to
abide by the school's 92-year-
old student honor code.
Though signing a pledge to
uphold the code is required for
admission to Princeton,
Randlett, who transferred from
the University of California at
Berkley, objects to the provi-
sion requiring students to
report cheaters.
"If you had an honor code
where there was no clause
about turning people in, honor
would be much better served,"
Randlett says.
"Then someone can come
through here (Princeton) and
say 'I could have cheated.
There was nobody to turn me
in,'" he says.
Most universities agree.
Many schools that have student
honor codes have deleted pro-
visions requiring student to turn
in cheaters.
"We want to instill a feeling
of honor," says Amy Jarmon,
academic support director at
the College of William and
Mary, whose honor code
deleted its snitch requirement in
the early 1970s.
The University of West
Virginia made a similar change.
Stanford's honor code requires
student only to "take an active
part" in stopping cheating.
"It makes more sense to give
students a range of options,"
says Stanford judicial affairs
officer Sally Cole.
"Students could, for exam-
ple, make disapproving noises
in class if they saw cheating,"
she notes. "You can extinguish
a lot of behaviors with social
pressure. Cheating is one of
them."
Cole says a survey found 20
percent of Stanford students
say they ignore instances of
cheating.
A random sample of schools
shows that aside from
Princeton, only the U.S.A.
military academies require
students to turn in cheaters.
Military cadets do not,
however, have to sign pledges
to abide by the code in order to
gain admission.
Princeton officials decline to
comment on the content of the
school's honor code, saying
that students are responsible for
Dean Joan Girgus did,
however, call the code "the
heart of our existence."
Student members of the
honor code committee could
not be reached for comment.
They discovered Randlett's
refusal to sign the pledge only
after Randlett himself told
them about it.
Princeton administrators
decided to admit Randlett
anyway because it was their
mistake.
But they're making him take
all his tests in a room separate
from his colleagues, under the
watchful eye of a graduate
student.
"It's basically punishment,"
Randlett says. "It's saying
'We're not going to consider
what your actual stand is. We'd
like to throw you out but we

But the survey of
undergraduate students in 32
states, and other data, indicates
that the eastern part of the
region is no longer considered
the rural area that is an impor-
tant part of Americans' percep-
tion of the term Midwest.
Industrial centers such as
Detroit and Cleveland do not
fit the traditional image of the
Midwest as the friendly,
agricultural heartland, Shor-
tridge says. Chicago, often con-
sidered the capital of the Mid-

of the region by less than half

added,

RIt had been said that great
hings often come in small
"packages, and the faculty of
■outhern College are
■emonstrating that this holds
Rrue for great ideas and small
institutions as well.
I For a number of years, Dr.
IDuane Houck, Professor of
[Biology, has been conducting
|studies of the hormones in-
budding plants. Last
, in response to a paper he
former student Loren
berg submitted, the
:arch Corporation
presented him with a $2,000
grant to continue his work.
The Corporation is a private
organization located in New
York, which makes awards to
mailer colleges that may not as
ikely receive grants as would
arger institutions.
Since the paper appeared in
1983, reprints have been re-
quested by twenty-nine scien-
representing universities,
agricultural experiment sta-
tions, botanical gardens, and
other institutions in five states
and fourteen countries around
the world."
The study focuses on the
"life plant" (Bryophyllum
calycinum) an interesting plant
whose leaves, when severed
from the stem, will sprout
young "plantlets" from the
<notches of the leaves. Originally
thought to be a response to
changing levels of the hormone
auxin, the budding, Dr. Houck
now believes, is mainly due to
another group of hormones
called cytokinins.
This theory is currently being
tested, with most of the actual
lab work (involving leaf
homogenizing, extracting, resin
filtering, flash-evaporation,
and bioassay analysis) being
done by Dr. Houck's assistant,
Jorey Parkhurst, a junior
biology major.
Dr. Houck expects that the
bulk of the research will be
completed fairly soon. And
that by the end of the summer
the project will be Finished.
Without the grant, which pur-
chased the flash-evaporation
apparatus and provided an
assistant's stipend for Jorey,
much of the work would have
been impossible.
"A plant is like a symphony
orchestra, with all the
physiological processes working
like individual instruments to
produce the harmony of life,"
states Dr. Houck. "What we
are trying to do is understand
one of these instruments a lit-
tle better, and regardless of their assistants who have been
what we have learned, we have involved with various research
really only scratched the projects, for their creative
surface." thinking, their contributions to
Southern College commends science, and for showing us that
Dr. Houck and the students one doesn't have to be "big" in
who have worked with him, as order to accomplish "big
well as other staff members and things."

wilderness. He purposed
it was the last thing he did. He sat against
he planned his strategy for reaching safety. He reasoned that if
he would keep his eyes straight ahead and start walking, he would
eventually come to a familiar place that would direct him home.
He started out on his trek. After walking for most of the day,
he all of a sudden, felt weak as up ahead he noticed the very
same gnarled log from where he had set out hours ago. He had
been walking in circles.
Many of us have probably heard those stones before. We think
it peculiar that the man didn't use some other means to reach safe-
ty, such as walking towards the sun in order to keep on a straight
path. But are we, as a people, guilty of the same thing within our
own church? Have we been walking in a straight line, or are we
walking in circles too?
From the very first time 1 came to Southern, four years ago,
I have been subjected to pamphlets, leaflets, and various other
types of "propaganda" which seem to have no other purpose than
to raise doubts and spread rumors about innocent people who
don't live up to the printed stories. Most of the time they have
attacked those within our church, and often, more specifically,
teachers on our campus. 1 relegate little credence to rumors, so
I ignored the pamphlets that were passed out to me as I crossed
the street on my way to chapel or were handed me on my way
to Lynn Wood Hall. So many of these papers have been circulated
and many rumors spread, that it brings me near the point of
nausea when I see this process still continuing. I almost hate think-
ing about it anymore, but there are those that may be in their
first year at Southern and are being subjected to this, and it
wouldn't be fair to have them, discouraged and misled.
When you come into contact with material that undermines
your teacher, your church, or even your country (that kind floats
around, too), do with it what any good reader should do. Ask
yourself "What is the purpose of this?" Don't let yourself follow
in the footsteps of the man who found himself lost in the
wilderness. You may find yourself wandering in circles too!
Letters. . .
SC-LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT
Having just read the March
21 article about the Bruce
Williams' call-in, I am moved
to write my first letter to the
editor in a long time.
First of all, Adventists
weren't even mentioned in the
conversation. The VOICE was
too cowardly to give the full
name of the school, so the on-
ly view we have of Adventists
is that of VOICE. Williams'
sarcasm was toward the in-
complete name and his disdain
was toward the one-sided (in his
view) radio programming, and
secondarily to the responsible
faculty.
Now I'm from the old school
and I'm not too fond of
WSMC's new programming
either. (I also have a hard time
saying "SC without slipping an
"M" in there!) But it strikes me
that maybe Williams' advice
wasn't so far off in the end. If
VOICE doesn't like what he
has here, rather than be a-
shamed of it and put it down,
he should go where they serve
what he wants and make room
for someone who wants to go
to a Seventh-day Adventist
school, not "Just Southern
College."
Bera Lalone, '68
FM909.5 IS MORE THAN
CLASSICAL
Dear Editor,
This is rare for me. I usually
enjoy sitting back and watching
other people brawl in your
"Letters. . ." column. But the
"How Do You Think People
View Us?" column on page 7
of the March 21 edition was too
much! This column portrayed
the conversation between a
Southern student and Talk-Net
Radio's Bruce Williams.
I heartily agree - that we
should be aware of how other
people view the Seventh-day
Adventist. That aspect of the
article is very good. I would just
like to point out that the stu-

I he Student Association Talent
lihow, you missed a good pro-
gram. The entertainment in-
cluded something for everyone.
J To begin with, the
Ininutemen emcees, Andre
fcalzo and Russell Atkins,
taught everyone how to clap for
an act and how to give a stan-
ding ovation. Throughout the
Jprogram, they brought laughter
Iwith their jokes while awaiting
■the next act. Sometimes the
I laughter was directed at them
■ for a "corny" joke.
The great amount of talent
made it tough for the judges:
Brenda Carnahan, Dan Chesla,
Ben McArthur, Glenn
McElroy, and Bill Wohlers.
After the program was over,
the results were announced.
There were two categories:
miscellaneous and popular.
In the miscellaneous
category, third place was given
to Brad Senska, Russell
Atkins.and Jeff St. Clair for
"It had to be you/Pecos Bill."
The second place winners were
the Smothers Brothers. . . ex-
cuse me, the winners were Den-
nis Golighthy and Paul Ware in
"Mom Atways Liked You
Best,"an act from the Smothers
Brothers repetoire. The first
place award went to John
Bristow in "Real Entertain-
ment." John showed great jug-
gling ability while handling
balls, pins, handkerchiefs, and
rings. At one point he juggled
a bowling ball, a tennis ball,
and a ping pong ball. And his
last juggling act had him juggl-
ing pins that were set afire.
In the popular category,
Ester Pascamalan and Burke
Crump received third place for
"With You I'm Born Again."
The second place winner was
Tag Garmon's "Romantic
Medley." The first place prize
went to the performers of
"This Time": Michelle
Cromwell, Kim Deardorff, and
Bob Jimenez.
The audience had their own
vote for the overall winner. The
people's choice was "This
Time," composed by Kim
Deardorff only a week before
the show. Besides thanking
those involved in the perfor-
mance, Kim commented on the
encouragement this award gives
him. An award of this sort
makes him see the importance
of "keeping at it." In talking
with Kim, I discovered that he
wants to be a professional song
Mitsue YapShing and Bob
Folkenberg, Co-Vice-

gram. Mitsue thought that
everything went great and

$1,000,000 For Not Cheating!
Associated Press
NEW YORK (AP)~ Would
you file a scrupulously honest
tax return if it meant that you
were eligible for a million-
dollar prize?
Such a lottery was one pro-
posal offered by a group of
social scientists the Internal
Revenue Service asked to con-
sider ways the agency could
deal with cheating, according to
an article in the April issue of
Psychology Today.
Some of the suggestions
"have legal and practical
obstacles, but all are based ex-
plicitly or implicitly on well-
established psychological
theory, "said Elizabeth F, Lof-
tus, a professor of psychology
[ at the University of
Washington at Seattle.
The lottery was one pro-
posal, but "more realistically,"
the IRS could offer positive
reinforcement by giving those
who filed accurate returns a tax
rebate or by lessening their
chances of future audits, said
Ms. Loftus, one of the people
the IRS called together for a
three-day seminar in January.
"Such schemes might at least
encourage people to check their
returns carefully and avoid the
necessity of contacting millions
of taxpayers who misadd
figures or misread tax tables,"
she said.
A survey, commissioned by
the IRS and conducted by
Yankelovich, Skelly and White
Inc., indicates that tax cheating
is a major problem. Of more
than 2,000 people polled in in-
terviews last year, 20 percent
said they cheated.
But those surveyed estimated
that 41 percent of all taxpayers
cheated.
Seventy-six percent said it
was OK to trade goods or ser-
vices with friends and not
report it, and 40 percent said it
was all right not to report small
outside income.
"■•• if someone like
me underpays a little
it's not a big deal."
Thirty-eight percent agreed
that, "Since a lot of rich peo-
ple pay no taxes at all, if so-
meone like me underpays a lit-
tle, it's not a big deal."
The survey did not indicate a
margin of error.
The main reasons people
cheat: "The tax system is un-
fair," "They can get away with
it," "Everyone else does it,"
"To beat the system or win
out." and "Don't like or can't
control how their money is
spent."
To deal with that last com-
plaint, the scientists proposed
that the IRS adopt a "check-off
system" that would allow tax-
payers to designate a certain
percentage of their taxes for a
specific use, such as education
or defense.
This would not necessarily
change the way money is spent,
the scientists said, noting that
the amounts that could be
designated would be limited.
"But the checkoff scheme
could make taxpayers feel bet-
ter about paying their taxes by
giving them some say about
where their money is spent and
by encouraging the feeling that
their money makes a dif-
ference," Ms. Loftus said.
Other proposals included an
advertising campaign in which
celebrities proclaim the joys of
paying taxes, and an increase in
the amounts that are withheld.
Taxpayers who are scheduled to
receive refunds are less likely to
cheat than those who expect to
owe money, she said.

As the NCAA tournament
;onctades this weekend, playoff
ever becomes alive and well in
rath the NBA and the NHL.
;unny as it seems, though, the
;ey word in each playoff-
NCAA, NBA, and NHL-ls
"repeat." The Georgetown
Hoyas, Boston Celtics, and Ed-
monton Oilers each have a
good chance at attaining this
goal in each of their respective
leagues.
Most college basketball fans
believe that the Hoyas will
repeat, even though they first
must get through St. John's this
Saturday. Most of the fans also
know the factors that make
Jerry Russell
Georgetown an awesome team
and what they have to do to win
their second NCAA tourna-
ment in as many years. So let s
not go into that stuff anymore.
Let's talk about the real
playoffs that are upon us.
First, the NBA. The Boston
Celtics-owners of 1) the
Jeague's best record; 2) the
league's best coaching, game in
and game out; 3) a tradition of
winning teams, and lest we
forget; 4) Larry Bird-seem to
be a shoo-in to be the first team
in the NBA to have back-to-
back championships since the
conception of Detante. . .right?
Don't be so sure. Although
teams such as Atlanta, Seattle,
and Chicago certainly won t
take the title away from the
Celts, there are some that are
waiting in the wings to dethrone
the defending champs. Teams
like Milwaukee, whom the
Celtics only have beaten once
this year; Los Angeles, who,
among other things, wants
revenge for last year's cham-
pioship loss; Philadelphia, who
would love to ruin Boston's
repeat party strictly for the sake
of the rivalry; and Denver-even
though they still don't know
how to play defense. Yet, the
Nuggetts would like to get Dan
lssel an NBA championship
ring as a retirement gift.
Switching to the NHL,
Wayne Gretzky's Edmonton
Oilers are looking to build their
own dynasty in much the same
fashion of the New York
Islanders of late '79 and the
early 80's. Though it seems as
though no one can stop the
Oilers when Gretzky, Paul Cof-
fey, and Jari Kurri are on their
game, the Philadelphia Flyers,
and Washington Capitals are
the only serious contenders for
the Cup this year. Yes, that
means that the Islanders are
has-beens. Montreal and Buf-
falo are good teams,
themselves, but they would
need to have an extraordinary
drive for the Cup to defeat Ed-
monton. Other teams like St

Chase made it close in the first period
with Hubbards only goal.
Boyle 5 Negron 5
Boyle took a 3-2 lead into the third
period only to be outscored by the
scrappy Negron offense in the final
period. In the third period. Negron's of-
fense. led by Joe Chaflin (2 goals) and
Bob Rodgcrs (1 goal) scored 3 goals to
come from behind. Chaflin had three
goals for the game as did Dave Alonso
of Boyle's team. With 44 seconds re-
maining in the game with the score tied

rox for slashing giving Boyle a power
play thai was eventually unsuccessful.

an insurance goal for the winners. Bob
Durocher and Bobby Kendall had two
goals apiece for the losers.

Lacra continued to roll as they were led

Mellert 9 Hubbard 0
Vito Monlepcrto posted his first shutout
of the season against a very meek Hub-
bard team, Monlepcrto's toughest save
came on a shot by the captain of his
team Rob Mellerl. "1 was surprised at
first," says Vilo. "I wasn't sure what
he was doing. 11 looked like he would
shoot-sure enough he did." It was a
great save by the otherwise untested
Monlepcrto. Rob Mellert led all scorers
with five goals while John Montcith got
three, thus finishing Hubbard's season
winless at 0-B.

At 16-00 of the third period Mike scored, with Sou* getting three. While
Fulbrigh. took a pass from Steve Jaecks the second period was mainly an outlet
and scored ihe winning goal as Jaecks for pent up emoltons the third period
downed South. Fulbright scored a hat
trick while Jaecks and Dave Forsey add-
ed two apiece 10 round out the scoring.
The second period was full of hot
tempered scoring as five goals were
classic defensive hockey. Greg Hess
and Joe Joiner made numerous spec-
tacular saves while South got great
defensive play out of Norman Roda.
Jim South led his learn with three goals.
Louis, Chicago, and Winnipeg
simply don't have the defense
to stop a club that scores at will
like the Oilers. Chalk another
one up for loud-mouth coach
Glen Sather.
It's highly likely that all three
teams (Boston Celtics, Edmon-
ton Oilers, and Georgetown
Hoyas) will accomplish the goal
that they set out for at the
beginning of their respective
seasons. However, you can be
sure that they'll get a serious
run for their money. Whatever
happens, the run for the cham-
pionship in each league will be
interesting.

restaurants are in the same
category as watch stores in
Switzerland and clothes stores
in Rome--to be appreciated
from the outside only. As far as
, tour books, and
museum admissions are con-
cerned, don't even concern
yourself-they're out of the
question. Food and lodging are
the only things that you think
about on $5 a day.
Because we only have two
areas to deal with, and because
we know that you don't want to
carry a thick guidebook all over
Europe (and because we both
have Acts & Epistles to do) our
advice will be short, sweet and
to the point.
What to take:
Basically, as little as possible,
but for some specifics:
-•Backpack
-Sleeping bag (warm)
-Plastic ground cloth (you
don't always know what you're
sleeping on)
-One change of clothes (to
wear while others are being
aired out)
-Tent
-Camera and diary
-Essential toiletries
What not to take:
Basically, everything thai'
not on the "What to take"
but for some specifics:
—Hair dryer
-Non-essential tioletries (co|
ogne, mascara, condition,
eye-lash curlers, etc.)
-Pillow
-Europe on $20 A Day
-Hotel, reference book
-Any memories of Mom's
home cooking!
Now that you're packed, „t
recommend that you get 0M
last good night's sleep and then
gorge yourself! When you have
done that, you're finally ready

fiouthern College Revises Freshmen Regulations for 1985-86 Year
G
s has been released from
[e offices of the Head Deans
' Thatcher and Talge Halls
Jiat starting in the Fall of the
P85-86 school year new rules
r incoming freshmen will go
:o effect. The policy is an ef-
fort to help students make the
transition to adult life as
|mooth as possible. Dean of
i Reed Christman believes
that the rules are fair.
"I know that at first ap-
s they (the rules) loo?
ridiculous. . .fair is a better
.but in the past,
■eshmen have not always had
e smoothest of transitions for
taking their own decisions,"
lys Christman.
I Dean of Women Millie Ru-
l agrees. "The rules may be
tough, but we felt that we had
to take the initiative in helping
freshmen cope with a new
situation."
When countered with the
argument that not all of the
freshmen need help with mak-
ing the transition to adult life,
Christman said, "Yes, that's
true, but those that don't need
the help will have to accept the
new policy. It's just like Sab-
bath School check. Not all of
the students need to be check-
ed on, but the dorms do it
because if we didn't, more and
more students would stop going
to church."
As of now the new policy
runs as follows: "All Freshmen
are obligated to obey these
regulations as well as those of
the college, and any attempt to
violate them will be dealt with
severely."
The new rules are as follows:
1 . Freshmen are required to
wear name tags on themselves
between the hours of 7:00 am
on Mondays and 4:00 pm on
Fridays. These shall be worn to
all special weekend activities of
the college.
2. Freshmen are required to
speak to all persons they see on
campus with a polite "Hello."
a. All Freshmen shall be
courteous at all times to
members of the upper class and
faculty.
3. All Freshmen must exit
and enter the campus by way of
Apison Pike only. They are not
to use Camp Road or Tallant
Road for these purposes.
4. Freshmen shall enter the
Administration Building,
Wright Hall, and the residence
halls, Talge and Thatcher Halls
through the front doors only.
5._Freshmen are urged to at-
tend all chapels, Wednesday
night services. Vespers, and
Sabbath School and Church
meetings. Specified seating
areas for Freshmen will be
marked.
6. Freshmen will be required
to recite verbatim upon request
at any time the following:
a. Alma mater
b. The year Southern College
was founded
c. The name of the President
of the college
d. The names of the officers
of the Student association
e. The names of the Dean of
Men, Dean of Women,
Academic Dean and the name
of your Academic Advisor.
7. Freshmen cannot wear any
article of clothing or any in-
signia that pertains to any
school other than Southern.
8. Freshmen shall be clean
shaven and have neat collegiate
haircuts at all times.
9. Freshmen shall know the
names and locations of all
buildings on campus.
10. If any of these rules are
broken, the violator will appear
before the newly-formed Stu-
dent Court of Southern Col-
lege, upon request of the Court,
at a time set for hearing of said
violator.
Collegedale Police Beat
"Chainsaw" Clower
J.T. Shim, Student Associa-
President for Southern
College, was picked up last
light roaming in his underwear
the Talge Hall parking lot.
Cramer, the arresting of-
;r, said that Shim looked as
|hough he were in a daze. "He
nust have been through some
|raumatic experience," said
-ramer, "because he reverted
Jo speaking his native language,
-hinese, and wouldn't speak
nything else." Shim was taken
fto Moccasin Bend Psychiatric
■Hospital for observation.
I After an all-night search for
Ihree missing Thatcher
residents, Collegedale police
jfound the women sleeping in
lone of the unused rooms in
[Talge Hall. The girls who ask-
|ed to be left unidentified, said
hhat they only wanted to ex-
perience what it was like to
_Jsleep with hundreds of men sur-
I rounding them. No charges
j*ere pressed.
I The Collegedale Police
— department posted its annual
Bist of mug shots yesterday. The
police believe that the act is a
[deterrent to crime. "People
posed to the public," said Of-
I ficet Pitts. Some of the surpris-
ing faces were Reed Christman,
Dean of Men, for shoplifting;
President John Wagner, for
twenty unpaid moving violation
tickets; and Mike Palsgrove,
SA Vice-President, for peeping
into Thatcher Hall windows
after hours.
After a dozen consecutive
false alarms, the Collegedale
Volunteer Fire Department
failed to report to an actual fire
on Tallant Road yesterday.
Although no was killed, all of
the Anderson's possessions
were lost in the blaze. The fami-
ly is leaning towards suing the
city of Collegedale.
Police reported to a call-in at
Wright Hall yesterday where
women of Thatcher Hall, pro-
testing the new rule for Talge
Hall residents which allows
them to come in at any hour of-
the evening, began to throw
rocks at the windows of the ad-
ministration building and to
strip off their clothes. Lynnette
Jones, arrested for indecent ex-
posure, said that if the rule isn't
changed, the girls will do it
again.
"I do it for fun," says Clower.
What he is referring to is the
"art" of severing animals limbs
with a chainsaw. Clower has
been doing this type of work
for nearly 18 years. "When I
was just a young boy," Clower
reminisces, "I used to lie in the
grass and watch my dad cut
down trees with a chainsaw. I
started daydreaming and found
myself thinking how much fun
it would be if that tree was, say,
a giraffe's neck instead. It
wasn't until years later that my
dream became a reality."
This somewhat sadistic at-
traction dates back to the year
500 B.C. when the Romans
began chopping off animals
heads with axes in their
stadiums. Clower, like the
Romans, draws large au-
diences, and many animal ac-
tivist groups have had Clower
fined. "What would you do if
you got $100,000 a show and
had to pay only $5,000 of that
in fines? Well, I plan to keep
my show on the road."
In the picture to the right,
Clower is shown just minutes
before he starts up his chainsaw
and runs it through the dog's
neck. "I like what I'm doing,"
says Clower, "and that's what's
important."
Clower has already made
court, Phil Donahue and Julia
Child's cooking class. He is
booked up months in advance,
but thanks to the ingenious
planning and connections
tional appearances at the White Dean Schlisner he will be com-
House, Queen Elizabeth's ing to Collegedale tonight. "It
really ought to perk up atten-
dance for the artist adventure
series," states Schlisner. "John
and I are really looking forward
to this."

ty. Students free with I.D.

K.R.'s, the Student Associa-

condemned for selling rat-
marine sandwiches disguised as

Upon further investigation, a
Health Dept. official was
quoted as saying, "For only be-

bring a fan in here and turn it

Southern College Develops Pop/Rock Band
The Office of Development
and Public Relations announc-
ed plans today for its most
unusual PR gimmick to date.
President Wagner has asked
several of the secret musicians
among the faculty to join with
him in forming a pop/rock
band called "Johnny and the
Recruiters." The band is plan-
ning to tour the Southern
Union, with stops at all the ma-
jor academies, to boost the stu-
dent enrollment.
"It's a sure thing!" exclaim-
ed Vinita Sauder, Director of
P.R. at Southern. "See, all the
good groups have lead singers
with a gimmick-Ozzy has his
headless bats, Mick has his lip
steroids, and John, well, we've
probably got the only rock
band in the world where the
lead singer is a bass!"
"When Vinita first ap-
proached me with the idea, I
wasn't too excited," admits
Wagner. "But after a few prac-
tice sessions, I'm beginning to
see the major benefits a pro-
gram like this can have."
"That's right," agreed
keyboards player E.O. Grund-
set. "And the tour also pro-
vides an excellent opportunity
for ornithological discoveries."
Not all the members of the
group feel so positive about the
group's influence. Drummer
Francis Andrews, admits she
joined only under great
pressure, and is often heard at
rehearsals mumbling, "This is
really silly." Ed "Boom-
Boom" Lamb, the band bass
player, is more concerned with
the time element involved with
touring. "1 have a wife to think
about, you know!" he said.
Although some members
complain, the group still con-
tinues to rehearse. Lead
guitarist Evelyn Moore and
back-up singer Jan Haluska
have even written several
original songs for the group, in-
cluding "Everything's FineS in
the Cafeteria" and "C'mon, Be
a British-Lit Baby." Along with
these, the band also plays
modified Top 40 hits dealing
with everything from studies
("All Night Long") to finances
(Think of Laurel") to gradua-
tion ("Against All Odds").
"I think we have a g<x
thing going," said the band'
other guitarist, Cecil Rolfe. "
can't wait to do the album,"
added, referring to the group'
first album, tentatively titled,
"MeandMyGSL,"dueoutin |
early 1986.

thought of himself as

timents with this statement.
"This is a serious business i
venture," he said. "It's not a

COLLEGEDALE UNDERGROUND INFILTRATED
Herman Fights Back!
Ihap Lin (Socialist Press)
Collegedale, TN: A bizzare
ihain of events has led the
socialist Press to discover some
tartling facts about the usual-
ly sublime and slow-paced city
of Collegedale. Many of this
town's influential and thought-
be peaceful citizens have
been indicted on many different
counts.
The underground conspiracy
all began to come into focus
just last week, but not to Jim
Herman, who moved to Col-
legedale a number of years ago
to assume the supposed role of
:ollege chaplain. To him the
conspiracy was what he came to
fight. "I knew there was
something fishy going on in
Collegedale," he says. "No
way could a business like the
Campus Kitchen serve the food
they do and stay afloat without
some outside funds being tun-
neled in that direction."
Herman's inclinations were
exactly right. A massive
underground has been func-
tioning right out of Col-
legedale. In fact, many of
Southern's teachers are part of
the organization along with the
present and the former SA
presidents. The retrrenchment
last year was due in part to rid-
ding teachers not involved in
the scandal and making room
for "members."
The main purpose of the
underground is still unclear,
and many of its own members
"don't know who we are
fighting." It is true that no one
person has admitted to know-
ing anything about the
underground (even members),
but Jim Herman "knows a bad
apple when I see it." There is
one person who admitted to
having dealings in the
underground. We spoke to
Jook Ting Shim (alias JT) in his
maximum security cell at the
Collegedale police department.
"I was to try and
take over the
Ooltewah Telephone
Company."
"My work was simple," says
Shim. "I was to try and
takeover the Ooltewah
Telephone Company. Perhaps
taking Senators there last year
for a tour was being too bold."
Shim says he doesn't regret
what he did and openly admit-
ted that he was going to make
a break for it as soon as he
could. We asked him what he
would do if he escaped. "Head
for China," was his reply. "I
have family there."
Telephone magnate J.T. Shim poses with his female entourage in a picture smug-
E'ed from his personal photo album.
Glen McElroy was another
member indicted. His dealings
in the underground include
remodeling the CK. It is sup-
posed that this was his biggest
error, for it caused Herman to
question where the money for
that effort came from.
Perhaps the biggest
breakthrough in the effort of
Herman to expose the workings
of the underground came with
the increasing interest in the
"endowment fund" to "help
students attend college here."
William Taylor (alias Big Billy)
says that "Herman is reading
things into the picture that
aren't even there. We aren't
running a scam here."
However convincing Taylor's
arguments may sound, Herman
is positive that Bill is the Direc-
tor of Finance for the
"I received a letter
thanking me for my
five dollar
contribution."
"Just the other day," says
Herman emphatically, "I
received a letter thanking me
for my $5 dollar contribution
from the Senior class. I'm not
even a student. They told me
they would be crediting my
statement." This tipped off
Herman that someone was try-
ing to make a buck. William
Taylor was the only logical
choice.
The pieces of the conspiracy
are still trying to be put
together. Herman still says,
"I'm very confused. These peo-
ple (the members of the
underground) swear that they

about and sound so sincere."
But Herman won't let that stop
him. He's determined to-put the
offenders away. As of now, 13
faculty and 28 students have
been indicted along with 6 Col-
legedale residents. More arrests
are bound to be made within
the next few weeks.
The Socialist Press asked
Herman what he would do
when he finishes his work here
in Collegedale. "I've been
thinking about that," says Her-
man, "and I think from the ex-
perience I've learned from this
chaplain cover-up, I'll just stay
on as the real chaplain."

Cutbacks in Intramural Budget Produces New Sports
Because of the new budget
for the upcoming school year,
the Coach has announced five
new sports. Apparently, the
lack of available money has
forced the softball field's
lighting to be shut down for at
least two more school years.
Also affected by the new
budget are flag-football, floor
hockey and co-ed volleyball.
Intramural Basketball and the
Rees Series will be limited to the
outside courts in the rear park-
ing lot of the gym and will still
be held during the months of
January and February. The
games will be played from side
to side with more than one
game happening at once.
One of the new sports an-
nounced by the Coach is Pent-
house Magazine Reading.
"During the season, fellas will
be given 'back issues' of Pent-
house magazines found in
Brent Van ArsdelPs room and
will be asked to do a full report
on what they saw," the Coach
said. "This sport will keep the
heart beating at a relatively
upbeat pace and therefore will
strengthen heart muscles a great
deal." For the ladies, a
magazine has not been chosen
as of yet and the Coach is open
for suggestions.
Challenge Nose Picking is
also on the schedule for next
school year. "Some of the best
booger diggers in SMC history
are attending the school right
now so I thought this would be
a great sport not only for the
participants, but for the spec-
tators as well." Singles and
Doubles will form the All Night
Booger Flicking Tournament to
be held in the student center
sometime in October.
"Students will be given points
for getting rid of the boogers as
inconspicuously as possible.
Flagrant violators will be sub-
ject to arrest," the Coach
added.
Ice Tennis is a promising
sport which has been seen many
times on ESPN. SC will begin
this sport in January. "Since
there are a lot of fools who go
out and play tennis when it's 40
degrees-and in shorts at that-
a little ice on the court won't
stop 'em," the Coach told, the
Tennessee Twang. "And yes,
skates will be available at the
campus shop. They might cost
you an arm and an eyeball but
most of the fools don't care
anyway."
One sport that the whole stu-
dent body will be sure to look
forward to is Ladies Topless
Boxing. ^'We had to get a sport
for the women which set them
apart from the men, you know,
a little uniqueness," the Coach
said wide-eyed. "I think with
the success of the Broads who
Rumble And Wreck League
(BRAWL) last year, LTB will
be a booming success," he said.
"They'll be wearing designer
shorts and designer shoes so
there will be no problem getting
sign-ups for this sport." The
Tennessee Twang had
photograph of models showing
off the new uniforms but they
somehow got messed up in the
developing process. The sports
department of the Tennessee
Twang regrets this.
Another sport waiting
wings is Car Racing which will
tentatively get underway
soon as the next school year
begins. Apison Pike will be the
drag strip and Four Corners
will be the finish line. Both
lanes will be used even though
regular traffic will not be inter-
rupted. "That will add
excitement!" the Coach JJ
claims. "Just think what
of wild finish line we'll
because all stop signs must he
obeyed. The fastest car with the
best brakes will win every
I surely do hope the administra-
tion approves of it in time so
can put it on the calendar,"
Coach said.
The Intramural seasons
never be the same.

3 C.A.R.E. Cares
The title sounds like a cheap cliche but it denotes with sin-
cerity the role that Collegiate Adventists Reaching Everyone
has come to assume.
The organization previously known as Campus Ministries
was fulfilling its role in years past, but the student interest was
not rising to what the group thought was its full potential. It
seemed to be drawing the same crowd for certain activities every
week. The need for a broader program, one that would en-
• compass a larger sector of the college and make activities varied
so as to meet more needs, was felt by the Campus Ministries.
This year under the leadership of Dale Tunnell, and the
guidance of Jim Herman, college chaplain, the Campus
Ministries began its year with an immediate change. C.A.R.E.
became the new organization, with the purpose of reaching the
students through their ministry, and also by allowing students
to witness to others in the community.
This turn around proved to be a successful one. From the
start of this year a well-organized program schedule followed
by good turnouts by the students showed that the planning had
payed off. Dale Tunnell is to be congratulaated on his fine per-
formance during this year. He has advanced his goals and has
certainly given the old Campus Ministries a new look.
There are others, besides C.A.R.E., that have worked to
bring their clubs, organizations, and businesses up to par. Much
is to be said about this type of individual. Many of us have
the potential of planning great programs and plotting great
strategies, but a lot of initiative and motivation is needed to
turn those plans into reality. It would be far better if we would
make fewer plans, yet carry those out.
C.A.R.E. has given us an example of organization and plan-
ning this year. Let us begin to set our goals for next year, make
them realistic, and then turn those goals into success.

MOWER GOES BERZERK
Dear Editor,
Perhaps I'm overreacting,
but I tend to be a trifle sensitive
when it comes to delicate mat-
ters like my immediate survival.
Allow me to relate an incident.
I was walking down the
sidewalk, innocently enough, I
suppose, watching a dedicated
grounds worker mowing the
lush carpet of vegetation, when
suddenly, the frantically spin-
ning blades picked up a small,
unidentifiable object (it could
well have been a biscuit from
the cafe...) and hurled it
ruthlessly in my direction.
Before I could react, the object
sprung up and took a sizeable
chunk out of my shin, with all
the subtletry of a Greyhound
bus.
Now, regardless of what I
happened to be screaming at
the top of my lungs at the time
of the incident, I have no inten-
tions of sueing the school. My
shins, you see, are a couple of
the more understanding parts
of my body. If my eyes or teeth
had been struck, however, I'm
not sure they would be so
forgiving.
Please understand, I'm not at
all criticizing the Grounds
Dept. I think they're doing a
great job. But to avoid further
and more serious incidents of
this nature, perhaps some funds
could be invested in mower
outlet guards?
Sincerely,
G. William Turner

„._ a dangerous seacoast
itorious for shipwrecks, there
_ a crude little lifesaving sta-
in. Actually, the station was
erely a hut with only one
. . but the few devoted
embers kept a constant watch
er the turbulent sea. With lit-
thought for themselves, they
mid go out day and night
elessly searching for those in
as well as the lost,
iny, many lives were saved
this brave band of men who
thfully worked as a team in
i out of the lifesaving sta-
. By and by, it became a
nous place.
Some of those who had been
ved as well as others along the
acoast wanted to become
sociates with this little sta-
in. They were willing to give
me and energy and
mey in support of its objec-
. New boats were purchas-
ed. New crews were trained.
The station that was once
obscure and crude and virtual-
ly insignificant began to grow.
Some of its members were
unhappy that the hut was so
unattractive and poorly equip-
ped. They felt a more comfor-
table place should be provided.
Emergency cots were replaced
with lovely furniture. Rough,
hand-made equipment was
discarded and sophisticated,
classy systems were installed.
The hut, of course, had to be
torn down to make room for all
the additional equipment, fur-
niture, systems, and appoint-
ments. By its "completion, the
life-saving station had become
a popular gathering place, and
its objectives had begun to
shift. It was now used as sort of
a clubhouse, an attractive
building for public gatherings.
Saving lives, feeding the
hungry, strengthening the fear-
ful, and calming the disturbed
rarely occurred by now.
Fewer members were now in-
terested in braving the sea on
lifesaving missions, so they
hired professional lifeboat
crews to do this work. The
original goal of the station
wasn't altogether forgotten,
however. The lifesaving motifs
still prevailed in the club's
decorations. In fact, there was
a liturgical lifeboat preserved in
the Room of Sweet Memories
with soft, indirect lighting,
which helped hide the layer of
dust upon the once-used vessel.
About this time a large ship
was wrecked off the coast and
the boat crews brought in loads
of cold, wet, half -drowned peo-
ple. They were dirty, some ter-
ribly sick and lonely. Many, in
origin or appearance, were
from the majority of the club
members. The beautiful new
club suddenly became messy
and cluttered. A special com-
mittee saw to it that a shower
house was immediately built
outside and away from the club
so victims of shipwrecks could
be cleaned up before coming
inside.
At the next meeting there
were strong words and angry
feelings, which resulted in a
division among the members.
Most of the people wanted to
stop the club's lifesaving ac-
tivities and all involvements
with shipwreck victims... ("it's
too unpleasant, it's a hindrance
to our social life, it's opening
the door to folks who are not
our kind"). As you'd expect,
some still insisted upon saving
lives, this was their primary
objective-that their only reason
for existence was ministering to
anyone needing help regradless
of their club's beauty or size or
decorations. They were voted
down and told if they wanted to
save the lives of various kinds
of people who were shipwreck-
ed in those waters, they could
begin their own lifesaving sta-
tion down the coast! They did.
As years passed, the new sta-
tion experienced the same old
changes. It evolved into another
club. ..and yet another lifesav-
ing station was begun. History
continued to repeat itself.. .and
if you visit that coast today
you'll find a large number of
exclusive, impressive clubs
along the shoreline owned and
operated by slick professionals
who have lost all involvement
with the saving of lives.
Shipwrecks still occur in
those waters, but now, most of
the victims are not saved. Every
day they drown at sea, and so
few seem to care... so very few.
Do you?

Advance Payment Will Earn Interest During Next School Year
Students making
nployment plans will be in-
rested in the restructuring of
: payment as announc-
I by Randy White, Director of
udent Accounts.
An advance payment of $750
r the entire school year is re-
uired by August ! . (Formerly,
1000 in advance payment was
equired--$500 prior to first
emester and $500 prior to se-
ond semester.)
More good news is that
outhern College will be paying
tudents ten percent interest per
i from August I to April
l that $750. The advance
ayment plus interest will be re-
unded as a credit to the stu-
account on the April
tatement.
"This plan has some real ad-
vantages for students," said
Mr. White. "We want every
student to know how to plan
during the summer and to
realize that this is not a flexible
or negotiable item."
In addition, nursing students
and students in college housing
have deposits to make as outlin-
ed in the information sheet pro-
vided by the Admissions
Office.
The national media is in-
creasing general awareness that
financing of higher education
must be a joint venture, with
students and,
their parents sharing in the i
vestment
what's in a student's financial
aid package, the advance pay-
ment stands distinct as an
essential to be earned in a sum-
mer job or provided by parents
or sponsor or some other
resource tapped by the stu-
dent," added Mr. White.
"Those who earn camp or
literature evangelism scholar-
ships are eligible to apply that
summer income toward the ad-
vance payment requirement,"
he further explained, expressing
a willingness to answer ques-
tions on the subject while em-
phasizing the across-the-board
nature of the policy which
precluded exceptions.

SC Delegates Return
From AIA Convention
After a weekend full of
meetings and a return trip near-
ly twenty hours long, Southern
College's delegation is back on
campus ready to put into prac-
tice what they learned. The con-
vention was held on the campus
of Union College in Lincoln,
Nebraska from March 28
through April 1.
Leaving approximately 10:45
pm on March 27, K. R. Davis,
Director of Counseling, and
Robert Merchant, Treasurer
for Southern College, led a
delegation of ten incoming and
outgoing Student Association
officers to Union College. The
officers who went were J.T.
Shim, current SA President;
Jonathan Wurl, 1985-86 Presi-
dent; Mike Palsgrove, current
Executive Vice-President; and
Cameron Cole, incoming Vice-
President.
Other officers who went were
outgoing Co-Vice-Presidents
for Social Activities Mitsue
Yapshing and Bob Folkenberg,
Accent Editor Dennis Negron,
1985-86 Accent Editor Brent
Van Arsdell, this year's
Memories Editor Carol Loree,
and next year's Joker Editor
Paul Ware.
AIA, short for Adventist In-
tercollegiate Association, is an
association of North American
S.D.A. college student govern-
ments, which has primarily
iftree goals: to represent the col-
lective opinions of S.D.A. col-
leges; to assist effectiveness in
student governments regarding
the social, spiritual, and
scholastic needs of college
students; and to promote com-
munication and cooperation
among these student
governments.
The format of the AIA Con-
vention calls for much sharing
among members. Each school
presents ideas and opinions on
how to facilitate student
government planning.
An important part of the
Convention is the electing of a
new president and the choosing
of a site to host the 1986 AIA
Convention. Southern College
forwarded its campus as a
possible site and Dennis Negron
as a candidate for president.
Southern College won by
majority vote and will host next
year's Convention, but Negron
failed in his bid to become
president. The new AIA Presi-
dent is Rudy Dennis, former
Pacific Union College Student
Association President.
As a result of the Conven-
tion, next year's officers for SC
consider themselves much more
prepared to serve the students.
They hope to implement some
of the ideas shared with them in
order to make 1985-86 a better
year than this one.
To be good is not enough when to be
great is what you dream of.

A United Nations On Ice
For almost two decades "Ice
Around the World"'s Euro-
pean counterpart has taken
pride in headlining its ex-
travaganzas with the most
charismatic performers on ice.
he shows directors and
choreographers never miss the
European-, World- and Olym-
ic competitions. They are con-
tantly on the lookout for new
champions to add to their ex- .
iting galaxy of star skaters. As
jese lead performers would be
tie first to admit, the splendid
age an try and eye-dazzling ap-
pal of the productions, owe
ijually as much to the syn-
bronized magic of the 20 stun-
.ingly beautiful girls and 10
landsome men in the Corps de
lallet. This "creme de la
reme" of impressive precision
ikating talent hails from all
the globe. Australia,
3razil, Canada, Japan, the
Jnited States of America and
most of the European countries
have contributed to Interna-
tional Holiday On Ice's shim-
mering pool of expertise.
These individuals are hand-
picked from among hundreds
of young hopefuls who audi-
tion for the group during its
travels. Since the birth of the
group, over 5000 young skaters
have been chosen to join the
troupes.
Many of them learned to
skate almost as soon as they
learned to walk. All of them
spent many years of intensive
training in order to achieve the
standard required to be a pro-
fessional performer. With "Ice
Around the World" they are
given the chance to turn a hob-
by into a profession, and
perhaps set off on a worldwide
adventure.
To maintain the high quality
of the shows, rehearsals take
place each week for the boys
and girls of the Corps de Ballet
and principal performers. In
addition most of the principal
skaters spend several hours
each day perfecting their
routines.
With "Ice Around the
World" these performers
become part of the family show
that sees itself as one big hap-
py multi-national family, the
european counterpart often
presenting more than 25 na-

Viking Sails Around the World
Sid Moody (AP)
Quite possibly:
The first European to see
North America was Bjarni
Herjulfsson.
The first European to land
i it was Leif Ericsson.
The first European born
there was Snorri Thorfinsson.
Christopher Columbus, who
neither landed on nor even saw
North America proper, showed
up 500 years after all these
Vikings.
course, Viking history as
told in the sagas can be more
than a little vague. So we do not
celebrate Bjarni Herjulfsson
Day.
But there can be little debate
that the first Viking ship to
discover Lewiston, Fla., not to
mention Fort Myers or the
Caloosahatchee River was call-
ed Saga Siglar, Ragnar
Thorseth commanding. There
are photos to prove it.
It was cold enough to freeze
orange juice right on the trees.
Ragnar, who has the heating
system of a polar bear, had
even put on a sweater.
Ragnar is a saga in his own
right. He is the first Norwegian
to reach the North Pole
overland. He transited the
Northwest Passage atop
Canada in a 20-foot outboard
Pleasure boat. When a lad, he
rowed across the North Sea.
Britain's Prince Philip, who by
chance was on hand when
Ragnar arrived in the Shetlands
in his little rowboat, said:
"You're crazy, man." Right
now Ragnar is sailing Saga
Siglar, a replica of a 1 ,000-year-
°ld Viking trading ship, aroung
the world.
Why does Ragnar, who has
a small farm in Norway, do
such things instead of milking
goats?
Because he wants to, he says.
That's true but does not explain
the man. The crew says Ragnar
has a horned Viking helmet.
Just as Jack Kennedy deftly
avoided wearing funny hats lest
he become a caricature as
Calvin Coolidge did when
photographed in an Indian
headdress, Ragnar won't be
caught dead in the helmet.
But see him at the carved
handleof Saga Siglar's steering
oar. The eyes, as blue, and as
steady, as a No. 2 ball resting
in still life on a pool table. The
beard,, with a slight reddish
tinge. One son, Erik, 11, the
name of Leif Ericsson's father.
The other son, Njal, 9, a hero's
name from a famous saga.
Ragnar itself, the name of
the first Viking to plunder
Paris.
This Ragnar is an incarna-
tion. Like a woolly mammoth
come to life intact from a cake
of ice. He would scoff, Ragnar
would. But down deep Ragnar
Thorseth is a Viking. A reborn
Viking
Saga Siglar (Sailer of the
Sagas) is a reborn Viking
herself. At 54 feet she is an ex-
act replica of a Viking mer-
chant vessel exhumed from the
mud of Roskilde Fjord in Den-
mark in 1962. She is a
utilitarian cousin of the Viking
longboats, their .warships,
perhaps the most graceful
vessels ever built.
Modern men had never
before seen such a ship, known
as a knarr. Ragnar had the
replica built in Norway. It cost
$200,000.
Ragnar wanted to learn how
it sailed. He wanted to re-create
history. He wanted to prove a
knarr could sail around the
world even if one never had.
And he wanted adventure.
He set sail last June from
Norway and followed the old
Viking route westward via the
Faroe Islands, Iceland,
Greenland and Newfoundland
where a Norse settlement from
1000 A.D. has been excavated.
En route he survived hurricane-
force winds with Ririk lashed to
his waist. Ragnar finds this less
arduous than weathering

Improving Grade School Quality
Teachers across Hamilton County are lifting a page from Japanese
quality-control manuals. At six week intervals, teachers attend after-
school "Sharing Circles" to toss around different ideas about
teaching. The theory: If Japan can build a better tape deck by in-
vigorating its workforce, why can't educators use the same manage-
ment strategy to crank out better students. The results have proven
positive, and the renamed "Curricular Sharing Circle"program was
opened to all the county's elementary school teachers this year.

posed as a corrupt policeman for six months when Caesar's Escort
Service operator Barbara Slandefer allegedly bribed him. Mrs.
Slandefer was charged on four counts of bribery of a police officer
in February.
"Trigger Happy Soviets"
"The killing of a U.S. Army officer in East Germany was most
likely the act of a trigger-happy Soviet soldier rather than the result
of a new get-tough Soviet policy," said U.N. Ambassador Jeane
Kirkpatrick, Sunday. "The Soviets have a tendency to shoot first
and inquire later. " Secretary of State George Shultz and Soviet Am-
bassador Anatoly Dobynin agreed on Saturday to a meeting of
military commanders in Germany to discuss the Nicholson killing.
Blacks Fired Upon
In Johannesburg, South Africa, police fired rubber bullets and
tear gas into a crowd of blacks leaving a funeral Sunday near the
southern city of Port Elizabeth. Witnesses said one man was killed
and ten people were wounded. Several black reporters and other
witnesses said that a crowd left the funeral, held for blacks slain in
recent violence, and were walking in the township bus terminal when
police in armored personnel carriers opened fire.
Mother Sleeps, Baby Lives
In Albany, New York, more than a month after a drug was
mistakenly injected into her spinal column, 21-year-old Lillian
Cedeno remains in a coma, but the premature baby bom after she
lost consciousness is strong enough to clutch her father's finger. "I
have faith that she (Ms. Cedeno) is going to get up from there and
we're going to live together," her fiance Tony Valerio said.

Thuesdee, Russell, Martin
Once again, America, the
Boys of Summer are back ! Ah ,
yes, doubleheaders, diving
catches, grand slams, rally kill-
ing door slammers, um-
pire/manager arguments,
6-4-3's, and hot dogs in the sun.
That is what baseball is to most
people in our great country.
But to others, it is ridiculous
salaries, long games, and over-
rated players. Then again,
everybody doesn't live in
Cleveland.
Although there is the distinct
possibility of another player's
strike this season, all of the fans
are glad that America is about
to catch Baseball Fever all over
again. Nothing can stop those
barroom experts from staking
their claims to the team they
think will be World Series
champs at the end of the year.
Nothing can separate the
season-ticket holders from their
thoughts of hope. Inasmuch,
nothing can stop the casual fan
from having his or her doubts
about his or her team. Nothing
can stop those wacky "baseball
experts" from telling you who
will do well during the season
and who will falter, and (you
knew this was coming) nothing
can stop Steve, Jerry, and
myself from letting you know
what we think about this year's
pennant races, so here we go!

1) Toronto Blue Jays
Finally, and after years of
waiting, the Jays will have a
y division winning year. Fine
starting pitching, sound
defense, and a good offense
will be the keys to the team's
first ever division title.
2) Detroit Tigers
Bless you boys, you can't do it
again.
3) New York Yankees
The Yanks made some good
off-season acquisitions to finish
right behind the Tigers. The
Yankees will have a strong run,
but "the stars" tell me that in-
juries will plague their season.
Watch out for that crease in the
astroturf!
4) Baltimore Orioles
The O's gave themselves a shot
in the arm with the addition of
Fred Lynn to go along with Ed-
die Murray and Cal Ripken Jr.
But Baltimore needs some help
from the other six to become
division winners, and somehow
I don't see that coming about.
5) Boston Red Sox
The Sox will be baseball's most
prolific offensive attack with
Mike Easier, Wade Boggs, Bill
Buckner, Tony Armas, Jim
Rice, and Dwight Evans. The
Sox also have a new manager
(John McNamara) who inherits
a promising young staff. But in
this division, you need more
than a "promising young staff"
to pull it off. Maybe in a cou-
ple of years, Beantown.
6) Cleveland Indians
It's hard to write something
positive about the city of
Cleveland. Well, at least
they've got America's best rock
station, WMMS!
7)MUwaukee Brewers
The Brew Crew will finish last.
No questions asked, no doubt
about it. Wanna bet? O.K. so
they've got Cecil Cooper and
Robin Yount. Two out of 25
isn't good, now is it?
AL West
1) Kansas City Royals
The Royals will finish first in
baseball's weakest division
because George Brett, Hal
McRae, Willie Wilson, and
Dan Quisenberry will shine
again after an absence of super-
stardom over the last two years.
2) Chicago White Sox
After doing "the stink" for
most of last year, the Pale Hose
will get back on track with a
fairly good season. Harold
Baines will have an MVP-like
season and Tom Seaver will be
the anchor of the Sox for most
of the year.
3) Minnesota Twins
The Twins, behind Kent Hrbek,
will have one of their most ex-
citing seasons. Yet "the stars"
tell me that the bullpen will not
cut it this year. Though they
have the advantage of playing
in the synthetic Humphrey
Melrodome, the Twins will
make their decline sometime in
the second half.
4) California Angels
They're so old. Reggie keeps
striking out, and he might even
play right field. The Angels are
veterans, no doubt, but they
may not be able to recapture
the top spot this year. Mike
Witt will be their anchor this
year. He is awesome, watch for
51 Seattle Mariners
Alvin Davis is one of baseball's
bright new stars, but he can't
help break the Mariner's tradi-
tion of losing.
6) Oakland Athletics
No Bill Caudill, no Ray Burris,
and no Rickey Henderson spells
L-A-S-T P-L-A-C-E.
7) Texas Rangers
Once again, the Texas Rangers
are short on hopes even though
they have the next best third-
sacker in the division in Larry
Parrish. But even Parrish can't
stop the losing woes in
Arlington.
NL East
1) New York Mets
The New York Mets are
fielding a team to be reckoned
with for the first time in a long
time. It's so easy to base the
starters on their pasts, but with
a cast like Keith Hernandez,
Dwight Gooden, Darryl
Strawberry, Gary Carter,
George Foster, Ron Darling,
and Jesse Orosco, who can help
but think that the Mets will
have a division winning year?
Although Wally Backman and
Ray Knight will have to put in
their four cents worth to make
it a complete thing for the
Mets, the feeling is that New
York will outlast Chicago in a
tough division race-if reputa-
tions turn into production, that
2) Chicago Cubs
Isn't this strange? Imagine
picking the Mets and the Cubs
1-2 in the pre-season. Unreal?
Maybe not. The Cubs will have
a good starting rotation back
for a full year in Scott Sander-
Dennis Eckersley, Steve
Trout, Rick Sutcliffe, and Dick
Ruthven. The bullpen is O.K.
with Geore Frazier, Ray
Fontenot, Larry Sorensen,
Warren Brusstar, and big Lee
Smith. The question will be if
the Cubbies can pound the stuf-
fing out of the ball as they did
in '84. Ryne Sandberg leads a
cast including Leon Durham,
Jody Davis, and Gary Mat-
thews in giving the Cubs run
production. Those guys will
give the Mets a run for the
money. "The stars" tell me that
the season series between the
two clubs will be one of
baseball's better one.s and the
division winner will have no
trouble canning the West's
champion in the playoffs.
3) Philadelphia Phillies
The Philadelphia Phillies are
not as bad as their finish last
year may attest to. Al Holland
and Mike Schmidt are ready to
have come-back seasons, but
they will only be enough for a
third-place finish.
4) St. Louis Cardinals
Everyone is saying that without
Bruce Sutter, St. Louis is
destined for the cellar. The Car-
dinals, however, have a good
hitting attack and an excellent
running team. Neil Allen is no
Sutter, but he'll be enough to
keep the Cards out of last
place.
5) Montreal Expos
(After all these years, I still
don't know what an "Expo"
is.) Montreal had the talent
years ago, and they still
couldn't pull it off. Now, they
know they don't have the talent
and they know they won't pull
it off. No miracles here.
6) Pittsburgh Pirates
Speaking of lacking in miracles,
the Bucs are qualified for this
story. Even though they have
Tony Pena, Bill Madlock, Steve
Kemp, and George Hendrick,
only 700,000 people will actual-
ly attend Pirate home games
this season. Jose DeLeon is a
pitcher on the brink of star-
dom. Now, if only he could get
some support. . .
NX. West
1) San Diego Padres
The Padres have just too many
guns to finish anywhere else,
period.
2) Atlanta Braves
The area favorite in the south,
the Braves will have a fine
season all around. Look for
this divisional race to go down
to the last week.
3) Houston Astros
Although the Astros have an
aging pitching staff, they will
enjoy pretty good success. The
bullpen, though, will be their
downfall.
4) Cincinnati Reds
"The stars" tell me the Reds
are on the rise this year. They
will make life tough on some
teams this year. Mario Soto (no
relation to Maribel) is the best
pitcher in the National League.
5) Los Angeles Dodgers
The Dodgers are in a rebuilding
year, just like last year. Watch
out Lasorda, you just might get
fired!
6) San Francisco Giants
Outfielder Jeff Leonard is the
best thing going for the bay ci-
ty Goliaths. Make that the on-
ly thing.

Europe On $5 A Day.
And A Prayer (Part 2)
Your Turn
John Dysinger and Bob
folkenberg
,s was mentioned earlier,
when you are on a budget of $5
a day, the only things that really
matter are food in your
stomach and a place to lay your
head. Let's first concentrate on
the task of eating on a shoe-
string budget (we call it con-
trolled starvation).
What to eat: The basic staple
of the budget-minded Euro-
pean traveler is bread and
cheese. Before you despair,
though, let us assure you that
it's not as bad as it sounds
because Europe has an endless
variety of breads and cheeses.
In fact, after a month of travel-
ing we found that instead of be-
ing tired of bread and cheese,
we had become thoroughly ad-
dicted to it! We actually suf-
fered withdrawal symptoms on
returning to Newbold and its
food.
The shapes, sizes, and types
of bread are numerous, so you
never have to be subject to the
monotony of eating the same
thing meal after meal. We
found it helpful to intersperse
round bread with long bread,
white bread with brown bread,
and sweet bread with sour
bread-after all, variety is the
spice of Jife.
If you find a particularly
cheap price for bread (as in
Greece), we recommend buying
in bulk. From personal ex-
perience, we found that the
bread keeps quite well for
about four days— then it
becomes tough eating-even for
strong-jawed veterans of the
European crusty bread.
After a month of bread and
cheese, you will be a con-
noisseur of fine cheeses-and
not so fine cheeses too. Of
course, you automatically think
of Switzerland and Austria
when you hear the word cheese,
and you would expect them to
be the best, but we found that
they have taken a good thing a
little too far. Their cheese is
either spiced up so much that it
doesn't taste like cheese or aged
so long that one whiff curls
your nasal hairs. We preferred
something a little simpler.
In Italy, you can supplement
your bread and cheese diet with
cheap Italian pizza, and in
Greece, tangarines can add a
little spice (figuratively) to your
meals for next to nothing.
Where not to eat: We found
that most European restaurants
don't appreciate your eating
your food on their premises, so
stay away from them. Also, we
recommend that you avoid
eating in public buildings. The
men in the post office seem to
frown upon people eating in
their lobbies. Eating on the
street is fine, but try to stay
away from the well-traveled
sidewalks, as people walking all
around you and looking at hur-
rying legs from eye level tjmds
to disrupt digestion. Otherwise,
just let your imagination run
wild when it comes to where
you should eat your bread and
cheese. It helps make the dif-
ference between a simple meal
and a memorable eating ex-
perience. Enjoy!

Tuition Increases 8.2% for 1985-86 School Year
If a student takes a full load

n expect to be paying 8.2 per-
I cent more tuition than this year.
I Recently, re-application forms

omen's residence halls,

[financial information an in-
dividual will need to begin plan-
ning for the 1985-86 school
For a student expecting to be
residing in either Talge Hall or
jThatcher Hall, the estimated
pudget runs as follows: Tuition
■ fifteen hours per semester
will be $5220, books and sup-
plies will be approximately
$360, rent will run $1030, food,
at a monthly average of $160,

| rates total $7970. This figure is

|this ye<M.
Kenneth Spears,, Southern
College's Business Manager,
I explained that this institution's
two biggest segments of income
is denominational subsidies and
student tuition. This year tui-
tion will make up approximate-
ly 82.5 percent of the college's
income. Last year, this figure
was approximately 79 percent.
Spears continued to explain
that denominatoinal subsidies
make up 14.6 percent of the
college's income, but the
amount given to the school has
not increased for next year.
Therefore, the student must
make up the difference.
On a brighter note, Spears
noted that although tuition will
cover 4 percent more of the col-
lege's income next year, 2 per-
cent of this increase will go
towards student aid.
However, Spears did express
some concern for the high cost
of a Christian education.
"When the government aid is
eventually taken away, students
will have to work more or we
will price ourselves out of
business." He noted that the
college has prepared for this
time by starting the $10 million
endowment fund. This fund
will make available to future
students scholarships that
Southern College is not able to
offer now.
In the meantime, the ad-
ministration has started some
budget-saving measures, while
attempting to keep the student
as comfortable as possible. Last
year the Purchasing and Order-
ing Department was cut out of
the budget and now no longer
exist. Mr. Spears and Robert
Merchant, Treasurer, are shar-
ing the responsibilities that
originally were Richard
Reiner's, former Business
manager, before he departed to
Florida Hospital. Also, the
school is still installing energy-
saving devices all over campus.
Spears feels that any other
budget-cutting measures will
not be noticeable by the
student.

Division of Nursing Passes Inspection
Joni King
Southern College's Division
of Nursing is breathing a sigh
of relief after having passed in-
spection. On March 26-29 they
were visited by the National
League of Nursing for the pur-
pose of accreditation.
An inspection group called a
"site visitation team" comes
every eight years to assess the
policies of structure and gover-
nance, curriculum, faculty
preparation and experience,
student performance, and
facility adequacy in our nursing
departemnt. Before they visit,
the division must prepare two
self-studies of evaluation, done
this year by Katie Lamb, with
input from the entire faculty.
The site visitation team then
observes the department to
make sure the self-studies cor-
relate with the actual program.
They walk around campus, in-
terview the students and facul-
ty, sit in on classes, and inspect
facilities.
Overall, the faculty and ad-
ministration have' been very
pleased with the team's obser-
vations. The site visitation team
has noted the unique caring at-
titude and the supportiveness of
the administration. The

area, while members of the
Southern College band plays a
welcoming fan-fare for them.
At the orientation area, the
students will be briefed on the
activities planned for them by
the official hosts, Ron Barrow
and Everett Schlisner.
A registration tent will be
next to the orientation area,
where students will check-in
and receive their meal tickets
and any additional information
they need. When the students
arrive at the dorms, they will
assignments and information of
who they are slaying with.
The musical production The
Music Man will be put on this
Sunday at 2:00 p.m. for the
academy seniors. The musical
will feature Glenn McElroy,
Marvin Robertson, Denise
Read, Alicia Williams, Rob
Shanko, and introduce
Michelle Cromwell as "Marion
Paroo." After the show, the
studentss will have the rest of
the afternoon for anything they
choose to do until thai evening.
At 8:00 p.m. The Kodak
Show, a slide presentation of
the land, culture, and people of
Greece, will be held in the gym.
This presentation was made
possible by the work of Dean
Schlisner, who views the show
as quality entertainment for
everyone.
Immediately following the
Kodak Show the S.A. will pre-
sent a talent show mixer. "This
show is a mixture of all the win-
ning contestants of the talent
show which was held two weeks
ago," describes Co-Vice Presi-
dent for Social Activities Bob
Folkenberg. The talent mixer
will conclude the activities for
Sunday.
Monday morning the
academy senior will rise out of
bed to begin a full day of tours,
informative meetings, and, for
some, A.C.T. testing. This day
has been designated for
students to receive information,
and applications, for summer
or fall classes.
Ron Barrow, Director of Ad-
missions, commented on what
it takes to have a successful
College Days program. "Every
major staff person is needed to
help, especially the deans and
the food service director. My
secretary, Emily Dresser, has
assisted me extensively in the
planning for College Days."
Mitsue Yapshing, Co-Vice
President for Social Activities,
stated her feelins about her past #
experience at College Days. "I \
was very impressed with the
amount of time and effort that
the college put into the pro-
gram. Most of all, I really en-
joyed the southern hospitality
that I was greeted with when I
came last year. That is
something I'll never forget
about Southern College."

Christian Education Is
Getting Too Expensive
Christian education is already expensive. It was expensive four
years ago when I came to Southern College. And yet hide can
be done about the problem.
Next year, tuition will rise eight percent above what it is right
now. For a student who takes an average of fifteen credit hours
a semester and eats under a hundred and sixty dollars in food,
the estimated cost for his 1985-86 school year is just below eight
thousand dollars. For about twenty-five percent of Southern Col-
lege's student population, this figure is approximately half of what
their parent's make in a year.
The responsibility of paying this bill lies mostly with the stu-
dent, then. And there is nothing wrong with that. A person work-
ing at the McKee Baking Company can make just under seven
dollars an hour. If he can work about twenty hours a week, then
he can make approximately seven thousand dollars a year. With
a scholarship or a grant, his tuition may be paid. Of course, this
scenario requires some sacrifice for most of the students on this
campus, whether this be taking less college courses during a
semester or having less time for social and recreational activities.
But the problem with an expensive Christian education is that
it is slowly taking away the importance of learning at a Seventh-
day Adventist institution. More and more students are seeing public
universities with prestigious names as viable alternatives. Although
the same evils of a public college may be found on this campus,
one is less likely to find the Christian influences of this college
on public campuses. (And if one is looking for a Christian spouse,
the picking is even slimmer.)
Also, an SDA education does not give any guarantees for future
employment. Neither do other colleges. But students are less like-
ly now, than in previous generations, to go into the type of debt
that a Christian education can get one in for an education that
doesn't guarantee a job. Thus, what is happening is a vicious cy-
cle. Tuition goes up to offset both the increased cost of living and
the reduced student enrollment, and students leave because they
cannot afford the high tuition.
Little can be done about the problem, but an answer needs to
be found.

1 It is a sad fact that most
I travelers on $5 a day break
I down when the sun sets and the

I weary tourists we say, "Yield
I not to temptation or less ye

Islanding on the street, staring
[longingly and forlornly into the
Twindows of those despicable
ludget-breaking hotels. On the
lontrary, we would like to seed
lour imaginations with exciting
Ind adventurous alternatives.
I Trains and train stations are
logical place for penny-
■inching travelers to sleep. Plan
lour journey so that you're
laveling at night and sight-
leeing during the day. Most
Continental trains have small,
leparate compartments for
Eassengers which, with the
shutters pulled and the lights
out, rival the comfort of any
one-star hotel. The only
drawback is that the conductor
inevitably barges in yelling,
"tickets," just when you've
reached the point in your dream
where you mother is tucking the
covers tight around your chin
and giving you a good night
kiss. Reality can often be harsh.
Most train stations have heated
waiting rooms which you can
resort to if all else fails-and if
you don't mind sharing them
with drunks and bums. Empty
train cars are another
alternative.
If your travels take you near
the ocean, we suggest spending
the night on the beach. It's best
to arrive after dark though, so
you don't know what your sur-
roundings are like, (if you
knew, you probably wouldn't
get much sleep.)
If you should find yourself
on a boat with night ap-
proaching, skip the berths and
head for the car deck. There
you will be put to sleep by the
squeaks of the Fiats and the
groans of the lorries. If you are
unlucky enough to encounter a
storm during the night (as we
did), you'll begin to really ap-
preciate the prayer part of
"Europe on $5 a Day.. .and a
Prayer." (Especially when the
cars start rolling past your
head).
One of our most memorable
nights was spent in the shadow
of the leaning Tower of Pisa. It
was thrilling to look up at this
wonder of the world as it loom^
ed up out of the darkness. But
beware, dogs don't appreciate
historical beauty! (Bob had a
hard time cleaning up the next
morning).
Our hope is that these articles
have sufficiently stimulated
your imagination and aroused
your sense of adventure so that
you too will want to experience
"Europe on $5 a Day. ..and a
Prayer."

rounded by 27 vacant acres and would aid drainage in the area

Vandeman Assaulted
By Son
Ron Vandeman, the son of It
Written 's -speaker, George
andeman, assaulted and
wounded his father on Thurs-
day, April 11, 1985. In a
telephone conversation with
Vandeman's secretary, Frances
Williams, the Southern Accent
told, however, that the
evangelist is "sore but doing
just fine."
Vandeman, the
evangelist's son, has been suf-
fering from schizophrenia for
most of his adult life. Because
of this disorder, the junior
Vandeman has spent much time
i hospitals. Recently, he con-
tracted hepatitis. The medicine
which he was regularly taking
for his schizophrenia was
discontinued.
When visiting his parents at
heir Thousand Oaks home,
Vandeman was still not
aking the medication,
ometime during the day of
April 11, while both men were
utside of the home, Ron
vandeman went into an angry
a8e and assaulted his father,
tabbing him in the back and
:utting him on other parts of
is body.
friend of Vandeman's,
larold Reiner, who happened
te time of the stabbing,
rabbed the son's arm and per-
uaded the junior Vandeman to
stop the assault. An ambulance
was immediately called and
Vandeman was rushed to the
hospital.
Fortunately, the wounds did
not puncture any vital organs,
and they were easily treated.
Vandeman was released from
the hospital the next day after
spending the night for
observation.
Vandeman is a well-known
Seventh-day Adventist televi-
sion evangelist. He has achieved
great success with his broadcast
and is almost a celebrity within
the Adventist church. His u-
nique speaking style gives clari-
ty to the messages that are
heard in many different
countries.
Mrs. Williams told the Ac-
cent that Vandeman had been
planning a vacation for the near
future. The accident has
delayed his plans and will not
hinder any // Is Written

Vandeman's assault was
broadcast on the World News
as well as on Paul Harvey's

Walther, SMC's First
Academic Dean, Dies
Dr. Daniel Walther of Col-
legedale, Tennessee, died Fri-
day, April 12, at the age of 83.
A native of Switzerland,
Walther played an important
part in many of the Seventh-
day Adventist schools, in-
cluding Southern College when
it was called Southern Mis-
sionary College.
Walther first came to SC
when it was a junior college. He
taught in the history depart-
ment and was Dean of Men for
one year. When the school was

Monday, April 15, several
bus loads of academy seniors
left the Southern College cam-
pus to return to their prospec-
tive schools, with some of them
continuing their class trips to
other areas. The students en-
joyed two days of being enter-
tained, learning about a future
at S.C., and making new
friends. The activities that the
students enjoyed included the
Music Man play, the Kodak
show, and the S.A. talent show
mixer, which concluded Sun-
day's packed schedule for
quently named Southern Mis-
sionary College, Walther was
named the first Academic Dean
of the institution, being only
one of two doctors here. This
post he held from 1941 to 1946.
Walther then went to the
Theological Seminary situated
in Washington, D.C. After ser-
ving that institution for 21
years, he was old enough to
retire but instead served our
overseas sister colleges. His
work overseas brought him to

The next morning, the
seniors met at the gym for a
continental breakfast and were
later informed of the days
events. Campus tours, informa-
tion about getting into S.C.,
and some ACT tests were in-
cluded in the students'
schedule. Some students even
were given the opportunity to
watch classes in progress.
Over six hundred students
were estimated to have come
for college days. Several of
them expressed their apprecia-
President Dr. Frank Knittel in-
vited Dr. Walther to retire in
Collegedale while the latter was
still at Colonge. This, Walther
did, yet he still taught a class or
two in our history department.
Walther had been a native of
Collegedale for ten years before
dying in his home last Friday.
The funeral was held last Mon-
day, April 15. He is survived by

tion to the college for the real
"southern hospitality" they
received. Pam Doran of In-
diana said that she enjoyed col-
lege days in spite of the poor
weather. From Bass Memorial
Academy, Chip Hicks stated
his feelings about the college's
interest in the students: "I was
really impressed with the effort
that the school went to in order
to make all of the seniors feel
at home. This is just one reason
I'm planning to attend this
campus this fall."

Thank You, All
With the semester coming to an end rather quickly and with
only one more issue of the Southern Accent to publish, I dedicate
this editorial to my staff. The production of a newspaper is not
easy. It takes the utmost cooperation of a host of people if the
system is to run smoothly. I believe that the staff I had this year
has been top notch, and because of that fact, we have accomplish-
ed our goal of putting out a professional newspaper. (And we
have put it out early.)
Above all, thanks should be given to two people who are not
on the staff but have played important parts in the production
of the Southern Accent. First of all, Dr. Ben McArthur is thank-
ed for always keeping foremost in the minds of the editorial staff
that nrnfessionalism is what marks a quality newspaper, such as
the New York Times, from a trashy tabloid, such as the National
Enquirer. Secondly, Miss Frances Andrews must be thanked for
allowing us to come to her when we needed journalistic advice.
I thank my editorial staff for not only helping me put the paper
out on time, but for teaching me to be a better manager. John
Seaman, my Assistant Editor, gets the biggest thank-you of all
for sharing with me the experience he had accumulated during
the two years he served on former Southern Accent staffs. And
Bob Jones, my Layout Editor, is thanked for showing me that
a relaxed, more humorous atmosphere is easier to work in. These
two men and I have three distinct personalities, but we have
become life-long friends.
The other important people who must be thanked are the follow-
ing. Thank you, Pam Steinen, Maribel Soto, and Lynnette Jones,
ior uomg a gooa joo or typesetting. Thank you, Jay Dedeker,
for doing perhaps the most thankless of all job, that of retriev
ing the bundles of Southern Accents from the printers every Thurs-
day morning and distributing them throughout campus. Thank
you, Jerry Kovalski and Richard Gayle, for your photographic
knowledge. The pictures have been great. Thank you, George
Turner, for the humor you have instilled in the paper through
"Behind Closed Doors."
Finally, I thank the most important people of all, my reporters.
Without them, the Southern Accent would be nonexistent. They
are the ones who have dug up the stories I have assigned each
week, writing them up and getting little in return. This space
doesn't allow me to name each of them, but I wish 1 could.
This year has been fun. Thank you, all.

As the school year comes to
a close and final plans are be-
ing made for next year, a few
students are preparing to spend
their time overseas. The Best of
Britain tour and the Mexico
tour will take some students out
of the United States for the
summer, but still others are go-
ing on a different type of trip
as student missionaries.
A student missionary usual-
ly goes overseas to teach
English or math to the citizens
of the country he/she is enter-
ing. A term lasts from six to
twelve months beginning for
most students in August. This
year twenty-three students will
be involved in this program.

The areas that have the most
student missionaries going to it
are Korea and the Marshall
Islands. But this year Chris
Hansen will go to Iceland, a
first for student missions
(known as Collegiate Missions
on campus).
Talking to a taskforce
worker--a missionary to the
United States-Michael Exum,
I asked him his reason for
entering the Collegiate Missions
program. "It is a good way to
help other people and get a few
things straight in your own
mind.'*
This Friday night, April 19,
will be the dedication service
for this year's student mis-
sionaries. Thomas Ashlock of
the General Conference will be
the guest speaker. This candle.-
lighting service is commenced
by the former student mis-
sionaries leading next year's
group to the front of the
church. After Elder Ashlock
speaks, each new student mis-
sionary is given a candle which
is lighted by a former mis-
sionary. The service ends with
a communion service for the
new group.
This dedication service is
often a well-attended meeting
because of the specialness sur-
rounding it. All students are en-
couraged to come.

Do You Drink Diet Soda?
lori Heinsman
A-B-C-F-Gee, I love junk
food! I guess my favorite junk
food is plain chocolate M &
M's. They're colorful, tasty,
and they are the favorite candy
of some good buddies of mine
who live in California. (Their
names are Eddie, Alex, David,
and Michael. Anybody know
them?)
Anyway, I'm sitting here
snacking on M & M's and
drinking diet 7-up. Shame on
me-I'm actually drinking
NutraSweet water! I swore to a
friend last summer that I would
never drink diet soda because I
was sure NutraSweet was car-
cinogenic. Actually, I still agree
with myself. It probably does
cause cancer, but what else do
you expect me to drink with my
fattening M & M's? I'll never
get on a Tab commercial unless
I drink something diet. (I hate
Tab.)
So why do I risk my health
by drinking and eating poorly?
Perhaps I do it in an effort to
fit into the college yuppy
stereotype. We're supposed to
be carefree party animals, yet
make the Dean's List, thin and
athletic, yet eat junk, and have
a hot date every night. If we
don't have all that, we are
failures at life.
When I was in high school,
it was cool to stand over by the
junk food machines. Located
near the cafeteria, the
"machines" were the school
hang out. What a learning ex-
perience! We observed people
taking up collections for junk
food money. We watched guys
pound on the machine when it
stole their 35 cents. In fact, we
experienced inflation when the
potato chip price hiked up to a
whopping 40 cents. And, my
brother says he could tell a
girl's personality by the junk
food she ate. (I usually ate
barbecue-flavored corn chips. I
wonder what that says about
me?)
Why were we teenagers ad-
dicted to Lance snacks?
Because it was cool.
Is this our reason for drink-
ing diet soda?
Could be. Diet is in since thin
bodies advance us as yuppies.
And to be a yuppy is to be a
real person, right?
Each of us wants to fit in and
be popular. If I could have told
all those College Days kids one
thing, it would be that they are
okay just the way they are, yup
or no yup. Being yourself is
fine.
God doesn't want all us of to
be yuppies. That's why we all
are so different. Being different
means God made me someone
special. Your being different
means the same thing.
I might drink that diet soda
to be thin, to be part of an in-
group, but I don't have to. God
didn't plan it that way. I think
that's great. You know what
else is great?
Even you don't have to drink
diet soda if you don't want to.
Ornithology Field Trip
to Florida
E. O. Grundset
During the recent spring
vacation, the 26 members of the
ornithology class together with
their instructor, E. O. Grund-
set, and two lab instructors,
Clyde Blum and Russell
Duerksen, travelled over 2500
miles through Florida. Using
wo school vans and other
nodes of ' transportation (at
times) and armed with
telescopes, binoculars, and a
variety of cameras, the group
visited such top "birding
spots" as Cape Canaveral,
Payne's Prairie, Lake
Tohopekaliga, Loxahatchee
Wildlife Refuge, shark Valley
l the Everglades, Sanibel and
Captiva Islands, Corkscrew
Swamp, Discovery Island Bird
Sanctuary, plus numerous 'sud-
stops' along bays,
estuaries, swamps, irrigation
ditches, forests, and roadside
parks. Most of the named
places are either state or na-
tional parks where a special ef-
fort is put forth to protect and

For Next Year
decline considerably unless
much-needed rain refills the
ponds and marshes. Other in-
teresting and unusual (to the
class, anyway, many of who
had hardly noticed any bird life
heretofore) were the Great
Black-backed Gull, Great
Egrets, Magnificent
Frigatebird, the soaring
Swallow-tailed Kites, close-up
views of Barred Owls,
numerous windering ducks,
Scrub Jays, Ospreys, and Bald
Eagles (some of them nesting).
The class spent an infor-
mative time at the Florida
Audubon House, where injured
birds are rehabilitated and then
released whenever possible. The
methods of caring for these in-
jured birds were explained to
the students.
At Payne's Prairie in nor-
thern Florida the class observ-
ed hundreds of Sandhill Cranes
(until the backfire from one of
the vans sent them all scatter-
ing over our heads!), warblers,
preserve wildlife.
The purpose of the trip was
to observe as many species of
birds as possible and also to
notice the variety of birds and
how they change from habitat
to habitat. Florida provides at
least seven or eight distinct
zoogeographical zones-
seashores, marshes, central
plateau with its lakes, the
Everglades themselves,
thousands of offshore islands,
forests, and rolling hills. All
these areas have their in-
digenous bird populations-
some permanent and others
simply visitor visitants.
High on the list of rare birds
seen would be the Snail Kite
which the class spotted after an
enduring 6-mile hike in the
Shark Valley area. This par-
ticular hawk feeds on a single
species of apple snail which this
year is in short supply due to
the worst drought Florida has
seen in 28 years. The 600 or so
existing birds are destined to

Several years ago, the posi-
tion of Assistant Chaplain was
created to meet the increasing
need for an organized approach
to get students excited about
spiritual involvement on and
off campus. The Campus
Mininstries Department has
seen a tremendous growth pat-
tern as young men with high
aspirations have attempted to
build an increasingly more ef-
ficient program.
Under the responsible leader-
ship of Dale Tunnell, this
department shifted its gears this
year by changing its title from
"Campus Ministries Office" to
C.A.R.E. (Collegiate Adven-
tists Reaching Everyone). The
reason is that the C.A.B.L.
(Collegiate Adventists for Bet-
ter Living) aspect of this pro-
gram was often neglected and
de-emphasized. Dale felt that
the name C.A.R.E. would be a
more inclusive title, recognizing
Campus Mininistries and
C.A.B.L. Ministries on the
same plateau.
Next year's Assistant
Chaplain, Bill DuBois, is
already making plans for next
year's C.A.R.E. program. Bill
feels that good solid leadership
will be one of the greatest con-
tributors to an actively suc-
cessful C.A.R.E. program.
Bob Folkenberg, senior
theology major, will be the
Campus Ministries director
next year. His enthusiastic
manner will be a greatly an-
ticipated asset to the program.
Assisting Bob as On-Campus,
in-reach director will be Doug
Rowland, Junior theology ma-
jor. Through his promotion of
on-campus activities, the
students may take comfort in
the thought that they will be
informed.
John Dysinger, Junior
theology major has willingly ac-
cepted the challenge of being
C.A.B.L. director next year.
John's goal is to bring a greater
awareness of C.A.B.L.'s role
on and off campus. Jerry
Russell, Junior business and
P.E. major, will be a tremen-
dous asset as he uses his P.E.
skills to assist John next year.
Many of the present pro-
grams will continue, along with
the arrival of several new ones.
Juvenile (acceptance) outreach
will work with area young peo-
ple in need of help in their per-
sonal problems. Dial-a-friend
will be a 6-8 hour a day call-in
listening hotline. Prayer chain
will consist of a nucleus group
who prays for each other daily.
C.A.B.L. will begin to travel
to area high schools and
academies and present in-
teresting health talks. Current
plans are to have a student
fitness awareness program that
will evaluate your health in all
areas weekly, dealing with
specific therapies to increase
your fitness. Also, it is hoped
that a weekly health article will
appear in the Accent.
Bill sums up his goals for
next year, "I realize that many
students would feel uncomfor-
table having Campus Ministries
and C.A.B.L. holding an equal
role with the Student Associa-
tion. But why shouldn't it?
After all our school has been
founded on religious principles
and why not promote them by
means of a top-notch, exciting,

Getting Ready For Those Final Exam Blues
Reduce Your
Stress Level
Tips on How to Study for Those Tests
Stress levels, although high
throughout the year, generally
"sky rocket" during the last
two weeks of school. The
reason is that final exams are
close. Students wish to do well
on these tests because often
much emphasis is put on their
results.
If you plan ahead carefully,
you can avoid a lot of stress,
but not all of it. Here are some
tips for handling study-related
Before you start to study a)
sit down, b) lean back, c) close
eyes, d) clear mind, e) listen to
yourself breathe, then breathe
deeply three times, f) begin
working.
Break tension during a long
study period by a) standing up,
b) breathing deeply three times,
c) bending at the hips, d) relax-
ing upper body, e) bending and
bouncing toward toes, touching
them three times, f) and going
back to work.
Before a stressful situation,
a) hold a mental dress rehear-
sal, b) go through a step-by-step
plan of action, c) imagine
yourself successfully handling
the situation. .
Deep muscle relaxation is a
good way to avoid stress build-
up. Simply sit in a comfortable
chair in a quiet room. Tense
each muscle group, one after
the other, for a count of ten.
Then relax the muscle groups
and notice how much better
you feel when relaxed than
when tense, a) Tighten your
hands into fists; then relax
them, b) Straighten your arms,
and tense the muscles along the
arms, c) Bend your arms to
tense the bicep muscle, d) Pull
your shoulders back to tense
the shoulder muscles, e) Lean
your head back to tighten your
neck muscles, f) Wrinkle your
brow, g) Clench your jaw. h)
Tighten your chest muscles, i)
Push out with your abdomen
muscles, j) Fill your lungs with
air. As you exhale, try to release
any remaining tension. Repeat
this step two or three times, k)
Push your heels against the
floor and tighten your thigh
and leg muscles. 1) Raise your
heels to tense your calf muscles,
m) Repeat the process for any
area where tension
For most of you, final exams
are on your mind constantly
these days, even though you are
probably trying not to think
about them. But the thought of
cumulative tests, essay exams,
and two-hour tests tends to
linger in one's mind whether or
not he has faced a college final
exam week before.
Final exams scares people
because they are not sure if they
can remember all the material
that has been covered in a par-
ticular, especially one like
Anatomy or Physiology.
The following plan for text-
book study was scientifically
designed after research was
conducted to see how students
learn and remember best. The
average student forgets 80 per-
cent of what he or she has read
after two weeks (the amount of
time left before exam week).
Using the method called
SQRRR, forgetting is reduced
to 20 percent. Further review
means retention of 90 to 95 per-
cent. The initials stand for
survey, question, read, recite,
and review.
Survey means to take a quick
over-all look at the entire
assignment you intend to study.
1) Read the introduction to the
chapter. Note the chapter title-
-it is the main topic. 2) Read
each boldface heading-these
are the most important points
under the main topic. 3) Read
the first sentence {generally it is
the topic sentence) in each
paragraph. It contains the meat
of the paragraph. 4) Watch for
italics and see why they were
used. Check for key words,
such as first, thirdly, or finally-
-they may denote a series of
thoughts. 5) Inspect all charts,
diagrams, maps. They are there
to accentuate and illustrate the
most important ideas. 6) Read
the summary at the end of the
chapter. Look over"words to
be learned, "or questions the
author has included.
Question means to turn the
chapter title and each sub-
heading into a question. 1) Ex-
ample: Chapter Title:
"Government of the People:
The Participating Citizen."
Question: What does the par-
ticipating citizen have to do
with the government of the peo-
ple? First Sub-heading: "The
voting process." Question:
What does the voting process
consist of?
Read means to read the
assignment section by section.
Stop to make up a question
which you jot down as you
come to each heading. Read the
section looking for the answer
to your question. Stop and
write the answer when you
finish reading the section. Do
not proceed until you can
answer the question.
Recite means that as you
read the assignment, you recite
aloud or write the answer to
each question.
Review means a quick look
of all the material studied in
that particular session. If you
find questions you cannot
answer, do not re-read the en-
tire chapter-just re-read the
part you need to know. Review
by covering the answers and
asking yourself the questions.
This method may turn out to
be of great help in the next two
weeks.

Edgar Made Judge
On Monday the U.S. Senate confirmed R. Alan Edgar as U.S.
district judge in Chattanooga. The confirmation was by
unanimous consent. Edgar will succeed H. Ted Milburn, who was
named last year by President Reagan to the U.S. 6th Circuit Court
Appeals. Monday's action ended a seven-month-long confirma-
tion process plagued by delays, and removed the last obstacle bet-
ween Edgar and the federal bench.
TVA Employee Concerns
The federal government has delayed licensing Wats Bar Nuclear
Plant near Spring City, Tenn. until TVA can convince its workers
that whistleblowing on safety issues won't cost them their jobs,
a top TVA official said Monday. The problem is that TVA
employees have called the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in-
dicating that they and possibly other employees are reluctant to
come forward and identify what they think might be problems
relating to nuclear activities.
Inmates Revolt
About 200 inmates took control of a section of the Clair County
Correctional Facility, Monday at around 9:29 a.m. Seven
employees were injured during the uprising, including two who
were beaten uncounscious. At 8 p.m. stae officials announced the
inmates agreed to release their hostages. The inmates' demands
ranged from "requests to grow beards and long hair to more
freedom in the institution."
Valerie in 12th Surgery
The 7-month-old Chattanooga girl, who already had survived
two liver transplants and nine other surgeries, was wheeled into
an operating room in Pittsburgh at 12:30 p.m. Monday. In a four-
hour procedure, surgeons removed the right lobe of her liver. The
hospital said the operation was needed to stop an abcess. Valerie
was doing well Monday night, a hospital spokeswoman said at
8 p.m., but had not been out of surgery long enough to be in stable
condition.

But West Georgia State is
hiking tuition 10.5 percent after
a 15 percent raise last year, of-
ficially because of "an over-
sight in the calculation of
teacher retirement benefits."
"What they want to do is
balance the budget on the
students' backs," asserts
University of Texas student
Catherine Mauzy.
Most colleges, however, cite
other reasons for the hikes.
They need the money to pay
some overdue bills, ad-
ministrators say.
"Faculty salaries lost 20 per-
cent of buying power in the last
10 to 12 years," McNamara
notes. "Then add on the costs
of deferred maintenance and
the extravagant costs of educa-
tional and research
equipment."
"Salaries, programs and
research are all increasing,"
agrees Lehigh University stu-
dent Jeff Brotman, "and
students just have to grin and
bear it. Nobody likes it, but
they understand."
Lehigh's nine percent in-
crease initially upset students,
Brotman admits, but universi-
ty administrators met with
students to explain the budget.
"The hyperinflation of the
late seventies and early eighties
is catching up to colleges, "he
says.
'We want to maintain the

Where Do We Go
From Here?
(lam allowing myself to do something in this final editorial that
I have not done all year. The subject this week is religious in
nature.)
Final exams are the only hems that separate us from the end
of another school year. So where do we go from here? Seniors
move on to either a job or graduate school. The undergraduates
move on to the next level of study or also a job. Professors and
administrators may move on to another line of work, or they may
look forward to leading another group of students in the Fall.
These future plans do not answer the question fully, however.
After having attended a Christian college for the 1984-85 year,
where do we go from here? Sure, we have attended this institu-
tion for the purpose of receiving an education. But to give us one
was not the sole reason Southern College was created. Another
purpose was to bring its students closer to Christ.
Some of us have atempted to close our minds to any of the
Christian influences found on this campus. For example, some
have skipped chapels, worships, Sabbath Schools, and church,
if not with our bodies, then with our minds. Some have elected
not to participate in the C.A.R.E. programs. Some have refused
to talk religion. And some have refused to show a Christian
witness. Commendation goes to the one who has been able to do
all of the above, but it still goes to the one who has done just one.
Perhaps someone is saying at this moment that in order to do
the above acts, one must have made a decision to be a Christian.
And that is my point. If the decision hasn't been made yet, when
will it be made? Will it be made? Too many incidents this year
have shown us the finiteness of man--Scott Yankelevitz's death,
Doug Stepanske's accident, Howard Bankes' accident. Fortunate-
ly, the last two students were not killed.
The decision is important. If it hasn't been made yet, then it
should be made soon. The good news is that this decision is so
easy to make. We only need to say it to the Lord. We'll still sin,
but because of that aspect of being a Christian called forgiveness,
we are still Christians.
Even more important is that we will know where we are going
from here. We will go our separate ways, but we will have one
destination, heaven.

Nearly seven hundred
delegates, representing the
Georgia-Cumberland Con-
ference, met at the Georgia-
Cumberland Academy Gym-
nasium on April 21 for the
Triennial Constituency
Meeting. Rework on this con-
ference's constitution, reports
from the education system and
the publishing work, and the
election of the executive of-
ficers that will lead the next
three years were on the agenda.
It was the electing of a new
president that caused the
greatest stir and took the
greatest amount of time,
however. Gary Patterson, the
Georgia-Cumberland Con-
ference president for the last six
years, was not re-elected for a
third term.
The constituency meeting
started at 10:00 am. But the
elections did not start till 7:30
p.m. A nominating committee,
chosen earlier in the day for the
purpose of bringing names of
potential officers to the floor,
had been dismissed at 3:00 pm
to meet on their own. However,
this committee apparently
could not decide on a person
for president, to be voted on
first, because it met for over
three hours.
The name the committee
brought to the floor was not
Gary Patterson's, but John
Loor's, current President of the
Northern New England Con-
ference. Loor is a former pastor
of the Collegedale Church and
was well spoken of by a large
amount of delegates who
remembered his tenure in this
conference. However, after the
discussion had ceased and the
votes had been counted, the
constituents decided against
Loor by the slim margin of 25Z
to 245. This slim margin was to
set the precedence for future
voting.
An individual made a motion
to reconsider Loor's name since
the margin of defeat was so
narrow and over 100 delegates
had not voted. A two-thirds
majority of the constituents was
needed for this to occur, but
when the votes were counted
the motion had been defeated,
300 to 159.
Subsequently, a straw ballot
considering Gary Patterson's
name was taken with the inten-
tion of giving the nominating
committee an idea of how the
constituents were thinking. The
committee was given only fif-
teen minutes to decide on the
current president. Once again,
the results of both the straw
ballot and the nominating com-
mittee were close. Elder Patter-
son was slightly favored by the
delegates, 253 to 236, but when
the members of the committee
voted on his name, they
jected him, 12 to 11.
The nominating commj
was sent out to decide 0
name a third time, and at f
p.m. they joined the faj
group with the results of ti
work. The name of Joel Tt
pkins was brought to the flfl
and voted on. Tompkins isi

PDA In Fenton Forest
Gordon Bietz
Once upon a time in Fenton
Forest there was some discus-
n of forest behavior relative
to Public Display of Affection,
"orest inhabitants were getting
oo friendly in public to the em-
larrassment of many members
>f the forest community.
A general meeting was held
if everyone and they discussed
; problem. Wise Old Owl
ailed the meeting to order and
tught to develop a consensus
as to what was appropriate
public bahavior between boys
and girls and what was not
appropriate.
Eventually there was general
agreement among most that
some restraint needed to be us-
ed for what went on in public.
It was agreed that some
behavior between two Fenton
Forest friends should be
only between them and should
be kept private.
Most everyone agreed except
Freddy Fox and Sammy Skunk.
They thought it was not anyone
else's business what they did or
did not do in public and they
left the meeting in a huff. And.
of course, anytime that Sammy
Skunk left a meeting in a huff
everyone knew it. (It might be
more appropriately put that he
left the meeting in a puff.)
Those who remained all in-
dicated that they would seek to
live by this new consensus and
they all left the meeting in good
spirits. Everything went well for
But neither Freddy the
Fox or Sammy the Skunk
would cooperate.
Freddy, who had been one of
the worst offenders, did try at
first to be more careful. He and
his girlfriend tried to be more
careful and no one was embar-
rassed by this behavior for a
number of months.
But Sammy was so upset at
the community intrusion into
what he considered was his
private bahavior that he made'
a big stink about it. And when
Sammy and Petunia (Petunia
was his girlfriend's name.)
decided to make a big stink they
could really do it. They paid no
attention to the sensibilities of
other members in the Fenton
Forest family and in fact there
some who thought that
they went out of their way to
offend others.
It became so repulsive to the
forest family, and especially to
visitors who did not live in the
forest, that no longer did the
concern general behavior
of forest inhabitants but the
Sammy and
Petunia themselves.
Wise Old Owl found it
necessary to call another
meeting to dicuss Sammy and
Petunia's behavior. Well Sam-
my and Petunia boycotted the
meeting. Most of the other
folks were just as glad for they
didn't think that they could
have stood to be around the
two of them when they were in
one of those moods.
In the meeting they discuss-
ed at length what to do about
Sammy's behavior. Many ideas
were suggested. Gruf, the bear,
said, "Just give me permission
and I will take care of it." But
he said it in such a way that the
other animals thought he might
do harm to Sammy and most of
them thought that that was a bit
drastic. .
Lightfoot, the deer, had the
idea to shame Sammy and
Petunia into stopping their in-
appropriate bahavior. He said,
"Every time that Sammy and
Petunia are observed in some
public bahavior that does not
show good judgements lets all
gather around and watch."
"Do you have any idea"
replied Rand) Racoon, "how
faraway you have t<
Sammy when he is angry?"
Everyone agreed that, though it
sounded like a good idea, in
this case it would not work, for
Sammy and Petunia just had
no shame and when he got
angry.. .whew!
Other ideas were discusses,
but aside from jail and excom-
munication from the forest,
most of the ideas were either
not enforceable, or they just
were too severe to fit the crime.
It became apparant in the
discussion that there were some
things in social behavior that
were just assumed by most well
bred folks and it was hard to
convince some like Sammy and
Petunia that there were some
things that were just not in
good taste.
Finally Wise Old Owl
summed up their discussion. He
said, "You simply have to
remember, some residents of
our community are just a bunch
of animals."
Away From Campus
Inflation Rises 0.5 Percent
The increase in gasoline prices has caused the inflation rate to
go up 0.5 percent in the last month, the government reported Tues-
day. Analysts say that the main cause of the rise is due to higher
prices, which incidentally had been dropping for the
previous three months. In contrast, food prices remained constant
for the first tinje since last May. The news, however, is good news
to the Reagan administration because the government has been
successful at keeping consumer prices moderately low for four
straight years.
Sweeter Coca-Cola
In its soft-drink war against Pepsi, the Coca-Cola Co. an-
nounced that its popular soda has been sweetened, a first in the
99-year history of the drink. The move is a result of losing ground
to its archrival Pepsi, and the latter is crowing that Coke "is not
the real thing" anymore. Tuesday's announcement also included
the kick-off of a 27-commercial advertising blitz featuring Bill
Cosby touting the changed Coke.
Reagan Pressured to Cancel Cemetary Visit
American Jewish leaders are pressuring President Reagan to
cancel his controversial visit to a German cemetery for war
Reagan is being asked to drop his visit to the Bitburg
cemetery, where at least 47 Nazi Waffen SS troops are buried.
Instead Jewish leaders are urging him to hold a ceremony honor-
ing the late Konrad Adenauer who "embodied the spirit of recon-
ciliation." Despite the controversy, Reagan has still stood firm
in his decision.
Pornography Called Evil
A study, funded by a conservative foundation, has suggested
that pornography is addictive and can cause sexual deviance in
those using it for "harmless enjoyment." The Free Congress
Research and Education Foundation also noted that a faithful
marriage can fight pornography. However, Barry Lynn, legislative
director for the American Civil Liberties Union, has said that the
study shows nothing new, citing that pornography comes in good
and bad forms but is protected by the First Amendment. He also
said that the study's results are ridiculous in implying that por-
nography enhances crime.

For about 3 minutes we watched in hor-
ror as the abortionist tried to break the
amniotic sac with a metal tube. While he
was jabbing and poking, we could see the
baby trying to get away. She kept suck-
ing her thumb and moving away from the
metal tube. The baby's heartbeat was nor-
mal at first (200 beats per minute) but
soon raced to 220, then 240. Then the
baby opened her mouth and Dr. Nathan-

metal tube broke the amniotic sac and in
a matter of minutes the baby's body was
dismembered and suctioned out, all but
the head, as it was too large to go through
the tube. Metal thongs were used to
remove it. Dr. Nathanson told us that the
abortionist, once he saw with his own eyes

helped with the ultrasound, resigned from

Case 4: J. A. was fifteen. She

(Adapted from Ethics in Nurs-
ing, by Joyce Beebe Thompson
and Lectures in Bio-ethics by
Dr. Jack Provonsha, Loma
Linda U.)
From these and similar cases,
it is obvious that the abortion
issue is not so simple to solve.
Also, there are numerous other
aspects of the abortion issue
which impinge on society at
large in addition to those effec- ■
ting the immediate family. If
for instance, the abortion issue
would be brought to the floor
at the General Conference in
New Orleans this summer, it
would not be any easier to solve
there than it has been by the
federal government. The issue
would be just as heated within
the church as it is in outside of
the Adventist church.
Adventist are general
ly pro-life.. .
Personally, I am in agree-
ment with the statement made
by the General Conference ad
hoc committee. Adventists are
generally pro-life and therefore
against abortion except in cases
such as incest, rape, and the
survival of the mother.
However, more importantly, I
believe that we ought not to de-
mand official statements by the
General Conference if we can
possibly do without them. We
need to learn to function as a
free people bound together by
that unity which springs from
the heart and the spirit of free
men, from a choice freely made
to commit ourselves to a pro-
phetic mission, and from
adherence to the principle that
all men must remain free to be
answerable to God.

tian Ethics on the Southern

Southern College Students Have
Mixed Views on Abortion
A few years back, the survey
below was distributed
throughout the United States
by the magazine Life. In an ef-
fort to gauge the feelings of
Southern College students on
the subject of abortion, the
same survey was used.
However, not all SC students
were questioned. Residents of
Talge Hall and Thatcher Hall
received the survey in their
mailboxes. Students who live in
the village and have a mailbox
in the Student Center also
received it. Those who did not
fit any of the above descrip-
tions, were not asked their
opinions.
Of approximately 1200
students on this campus and its
surrounding communities, on-
ly 203 returned the survey. Of
this group, 97 were males and
106 females. 36 percent were
freshmen, 19 percent were
sophomores, 19 percent were
juniors, and 25 percent were
seniors. Only 9 of the par-
ticipants were married.
Some of the highlights of the
survey are the following. Ap-
proximately 49 percent of those
surveyed believe that having an
abortion is morally wrong;
however, 59 percent believe that
any woman who wants an abor-
tion should be "autJ^ed jc
receive one legally.
To a large majority of the
polled group, abortion is an
issue that they either feel very
strongly or somewhat strongly-
about. 82 percent have strong
feelings towards abortion.
Finally, 64 percent believe
that Federal or State funds
should not be used to pay for
a woman's abortion.
In analyzing this survey, one
should keep in mind that it is
not meant to reflect society in
general nor Adventists beyond
this campus. The results also do
not reflect the feelings of ad-
ministrators, professors, other
staff members, or Collegedale
residents. This survey reflects
only a small sample' df~-the_
Southern College student body.

"Frankie Say: No More!!
J. Randolph Thuesdee
^_ The funis over. School is
*out, fcnt the memories still
linger. Covering the sports
scene at Southern College for
the second year in a row is now
a thing of the past.
Some say that sports is not all
that big of a deal, that in repor-
ting it, it should be a piece of
cake. Well, this year was
definitely a trying year for me.
Covering softball, for in-
stance, was a real challenge.
With four games happening in
one day, two the next, and
ladies' games also to report on,
I surely felt the load. Fortunate-
ly, I asked Steve Martin and
Jerry Russell to help me. Steve
helped me out the most in the
beginning because Jerry was an
umpire for the majority of the
games.
, Then came the All-Night
Softball Tournament. Frankly,
after our team was eliminated,
I wanted to go to bed. But,
noting my commitment to the
paper, I stayed awake. Then I
started to get cold. And it got
colder. And colder. The cups of
hot chocolate were mounting
up. Then it began to rain. 1
knew 1 was in for a cold then.
Minutes later, to my delight,
Jaecks postponed the end of the
tourny. "Now," I said to
myself, "I can get some sleep!"
This was probably the only time
I welcomed rain in Collegedale
all year. Two days later, I had
a cold. "Sniff."
Hawaiian flag-football!
What a fun sport! Who could
ever forget Scotty's team and
their game attire? They were
certainly a fun bunch to watch.
When Scotty passed away dur-
ing the flag ball season, 1 was
deeply saddened. 1 couldn't
bear to go out and cover his
team's last game; 1 really
couldn't. I'm glad that we now
have a sportsmanship award in
his name. He was a true athlete,
a great guy, and I miss him.
Soon thereafter, volleyball
got going. 1 enjoyed covering
this sport primarily because it
was too cold outside to enjoy
anything else. Just watching a
good volleyball game was this
reporter's delight. I missed the
three-man tourney, however,
due to a pressing matter called
homework. But that was okay
because the basketball season
was soon to begin!
I covered all of "AA's"
games and a few "A" league,
"B" league, and ladies* league
games. I'll never forget Teresa
Rodger's play on the court. She
s dynamite! She'd shake the
|whole team coming down the
Icourt, miss a layup, come back
Idown on defense, steal the ball.
take it to the hoop, draw the
foul, get the basket, and get a
three-point play! She'd do that
about five times during the
game. I loved watching her
play!
"AA" was a different story.
1 really couldn't get into the
teams because I was a member
of another "AA" team. I
reported their games objective-
ly, though, even though I wish
most of them would have
thrown up bricks for the whole
Rees Series time. I didn't
report on it because three weeks
separated the end of the tour-
nament and the next Accent.
Needless to say, in three weeks
everybody knew who did what.
So why report it?
But for those who missed it,
the sophomores came out on
top, led by tournament MVP
Ken Warren and all-
tournament team member
David Green. The sophomores
beat the freshmen convincing-
ly after the freshmen upset the
juniors on Thursday night. The
seniors, top seed in the tourna-
ment, also fell victim to the
upset atmosphere that night as
the champion sophomores
stuck it to them in good
fashion. The Rees Series was
the highlight of SC's basketball
After spring break, though,
it was time for hat tricks, glove
saves, and poke-checks. Yes,
floor hockey time! Rob
Mellert's team, with Ryan
Lounsberry, John Montteth,
Vito Montaperto, and company
mowed down the league in a
perfect season. They won the
best hockey game at SC this
year, a 6-5 victory over Dale
Lacra's team. Who scored the
winning goal? I don't
remember. (Just kidding,
Lounsberry).
To wind up the year, thank
God, the soccer season took
center stage. Did any one care?
Not many, except for the
players, of course. Barry KralTs
team dominated play this
season with William
McKnight's team not far
behind. Please, don't
everybody clap at once.
Winding it down, after a
long school year that seemed to
go by so fast (with no regrets,
thank you), I'd like to hear
those sweet, sweet words that
my good buddy Ronald Reagan
once said on my favorite
album. . ."Frankie say: no
Thanks Steve and Jerry for
all the help you've given me.
Good luck next year!

Golf Tournament Held
at Nob North
Ted Evans
Gets a
Hole-in-one
Jerry Russell
Ted Evans, a teacher in the
HPER Department of
Southern College, shot a hole-
in-one last week at the Nob
North Golf Course. Evans,
who was playing with Steve
Jaecks, also a HPER teacher,
and Ron Knarr, was losing to
Jaecks by five strokes after four
holes. "I'm going to beat
Jaecks," Evans told Knarr. He
then stepped up to the par 3,
135-yard fifth hole and drove a
pitching wedge off the tee. The
shot, according to Jaecks,
"could've gone in on the fly."
In turn, Jaecks got a double
bogey five on the hole to put
Evans within one of the leader.
Evans finished with a 39, one
ahead of Jaecks, after nine
holes.
Jaecks was unimpressed with
Evans good fortune, however,
saying "Luckiest shot I've ever
seen."
Jerry Russell
The spring golf tournament
this year was sponsored by the
gymnastics team and was
played at Nob North Golf
Course. The tournament was
open to both students and non-
students.
Sixteen teams, made up of
four individuals each, were
divided into three flights accor-
ding to ability.
In the championship flight,
Mike McClung, senior religion
major, and three former
students of SC, shot a
remarkable 15-under-par with
three eagles to take first place
by two strokes over the team of
Matt Nafie, John Nafie, Steve
Jaecks, and Ted Evans.
In the first flight, Collegedale
Post Office manager Dick
Wodzenski, Kim Pedean, Daryl
Detrich, and Steve Crane fired
an 1 1-under-par for first place
over Brace and Dick Stepanske
Bob Mills, and Lloyd Lawing
who combined for a nine-
under-par.
In the second flight, Men's
Deans Qually and Christman,
Rob Lang, senior theology ma-
jor, and Bob Rodgers,
sophomore chemistry major,
shot a six-under-par, three bet-
ter than the team of Doug
Malin, Royce Earp, Tim
Beaulieu, and John O'Brien, all
alumni of SC, to win that
division.
Trophies were given to tl*
winners, and sleeves of g°"
balls were given' to the in-
dividuals with the longest drive
and the shot closest to the pin-
BON VOYAGE!
Thanks to Competition,
Campuses Plan Some Dorm
Treats For the Fall
College Press Service
For college students, access
to cable television, automated
banking machines and an occa-
sional lobster dinner or late
night pizza used to mean hav-
ing to go off campus.
Not anymore.
Thanks to administrators '
worries about attracting
students to their dorms and in-
tensifying competition for rents
with off-campus apartment
plexes, an increasing
number of schools are offering
a smorgasboard of once-
unheard-of ameninties for next
11.
At the University of North
Dakota, some dorms have
weight rooms and saunas.
At Eastern Michigan Univer-
sity, some on-campus residents
have access to computer rooms
in their dormitories, and are of-
fered 12-month leases.
At the University of
Oklahoma, free cable television
in dormitory lounges, a pizza
bar and an automated banking
machine are in the works for
next fall.
The school also has hired a
food service director and
given free reign to plan what
administrators call "monotony
breakers," such as lobster
dinners.
"Try as we might, there are
some areas in which we just
cannot compete with apartment
complex owners," says OU
assistant housing director Craig
Putliam.
"But there is an awful lot we
do."
Dormitory residents are not
pampered at every school.
Many --institutions still face
perennial dormTTofy over-
crowding, particularly at the
beginning of the school year.
"It's sporadic across the
country," says Jim Grimm,
housing director at the Univer-
sity of Florida and president of
a national housing officers
group.
Grimm estimates that bet-
ween 20 and 25 percent of the
nation's colleges now have a
hard time filling their dorms.
Some schools, Oklahoma
and the Superior and Oshkosh
campuses of the University of
Wisconsin among them, are be-
ing forced to close dormitories.
But the schools still have to
pay off mortgages on closed
dorms, so, to avoid similar
fates, most vacant dorms are
turning increasingly to more ag-
gressive marketing.
And some schools that are
still full are offering students
more to stay on campus, if on-
ly to keep their dorms as attrac-
tive as those on other
campuses.
Grimm notes the University
of Florida is establishing dor-
mitories with a strong academic
thrust: computers, quiet halls
and live-in faculty advisors.
In some cases, innovative
university administrators are
acting on their own initiative.
In others, they have no choice.
Norman, for example, has
developed a massive apartment
glut off campus, Pulliam points
Landlords are offering
range of inducements to attract
students, including a month's
Other forces worked to
undermine the university's
housing program. When the
state's minimum legal drinking
age rose to 21 last year, the
school was forced to issue cita-
tions for underage drinking in
the dorms.
We don't have the luxury of
saying we're not going to en-
force state law," Pulliam says.
The number of OU students
living on campus reached an
all-time high in 1982-83. Dor-
mitory enrollment has declined
by about 10 percent since then,
and school officials expect it to
go down again next year.
