S helli Jankowski lives at Park Doral Apartments on

Eastgate Lane. Before moving to Park Doral, she had lived in the dorm. "I lived in Forest for two years. I just got tired of the noise, having to live in the same room with a person I didn't necessarily choose myself; there just wasn't enough privacy and I didn't feel free enough."

Economics was another factor involved. "It isn't costing me any more to live here than it would to live in Forest and I think I'm getting a lot more for my money."

Shelli shares her apartment with two other girls and says it's a big improvement over the conditions in Forest. "We don't have to change our lifestyle to suit each other. We can keep our sleeping hours and not have to worry about other people."

Shelli says one drawback from living off-campus is the reduced chances of meeting people. "I know less people," she says, "but I have less acquaintances and more close friends."

ick McClung lives at 519 E. 10th above the Ashram Rick McClung, above the Ashram. RBakery. He graduated in December from the music school and calls himself an itinerant musician. McClung spent his first semester at IU in a fraternity, but was dissatisfied. "I wasn't big on the fraternity thing," McClung said. "I really wasn't interested in their social life and activities. It was too time-consuming and if you aren't into it . . ."

McClung said two of the biggest problems with apartment life are sharing kitchen facilities and the noise situation. "I've usually been on the complaint receiving end," he said. But at 519 he's found his niche . . . temporarily. "I like to have a place where I can practice, which I've got here because I'm living with other musicians who don't mind."

Living above a bakery poses only a small problem which Rick admits with a pat of his 'spare tire' and a smile, "I've gained weight."

Some townies opt for 'playing house'

t 715 E. 2nd Street is a house called the Edgewater Inn. A"It (the name) is from a Frank Zappa song. Some guys were sitting on the porch and decided the place ought to have a name and there was a Zappa album on so . . ."

Dan Weitz is a senior and moved into the house from an apartment at Meadow Park. "It's closer and cheaper here," he said. "That's probably the best thing about this place."

Whereas most tenants would prefer not to have their landlord around, Weitz is in the unusual position of sharing the house with him. One of the tenants, Craig Nolan, is also the landlord. "It makes it good," Weitz observed, "because we don't necessarily have to pay the rent on time."

Weitz said he preferred his house to any other home because there's a looser atmosphere. "You don't have to worry about the people living next door or parties."

Weitz said if he had it to do over again he'd move straight into a house. "The only advantage about living there (dorms, fraternities and apartments) is meeting people."

eth Ray and Jean Kinnerly live in a brown two-story house at 531 Prow Ave. These are their impressions on life with five housemates.

Jean spent her first year in McNutt, and like many students deplored the lack of privacy. "There was very little privacy and it wasn't very homey," she said. "The thing I like about this place more so than in a dorm or a sorority, is that there's no pressures to conform to anyone's lifestyle, as you can see by the people who live here . . . we're all different."

Unlike some unfortunate tenants, the women say they

have no problem with their landlord. "We are lucky to have a very attentive landlord." Beth said, "You couldn't ask for better. His name is Dave Allgier and he's great, just great."

These six girls seem to have overcome most of the problems encountered by students who set up housekeeping in Bloomington. Beth summed up the philosophy that has kept them from each other's throats. "We all know that if we're going to take, we have to do a little giving in return."

May Creek attempts co-op living

N

ot far from Bloomington, in the rolling countryside of southern Indiana, lies May Creek. Its 300 acres are spotted with an apple orchard, a half dozen teepees, one cabin and a temporary kitchen.

Call it alternative lifestyle, experimental living or counter-culture, May Creek is more than an experiment to the people who conceived it over a year ago. It is a statement of their individual concepts of life, David La Cassio, a May Creek board member, said.

The 35 men, women and children who have gotten together to form May Creek are mostly from the Bloomington area and in their middle or late twenties. The idea of starting a place like May Creek had been in many of their heads for a long time but talk of raising the money and buying land didn't get serious until the spring of 1976.

Despite its outward trappings, emotionally and spiritually May Creek is just a child. Each of the 35 steady members, in a fluctuating level of participation, has a different perception of the community. Some members believe most in making May Creek totally self-sufficient while others just appreciate the chance to live away from the city in an environment where birds build a nest in a hanging shirt and toads share beds with humans.

The community, in its simplest terms, is an attempt at cooperative living, La Cassio said. Each member of the community is free to shape his/her own life with a commitment to the good of the project. The individuals have taken the time to evaluate their ideals in relation to the American society and believe they can live a better life than what is offered on television or by a split-level house in suburbia.

The people of May Creek see it as a positive statement aimed at bringing people together to work as a unit. The ideals are as high as the possibility of failure.

May Creek is at a very tenuous stage of its development, La Cassio explained. It needs all of the people involved to work and do their share of the jobs. The many different opinions of the group must be incorporated to achieve an identity that will direct the project for years to come.

This weakness of the community, La Cassio continued, has made the people of May Creek apprehensive to overt publicity that could disturb the delicate balance that has held these people together during the last year.

When the land for May Creek was bought in June, 1976, and the first work began, word of the project brought a serge of interest from people throughout the Midwest. Organizers feared that too much interest could hurt the community because it is not in a position to handle a large group of people or sightseers.

At some future date the community may be able to accept people freely and shed its apprehension of publicity, but now its existence is so fragile, even with the dedicated work of these pioneers, there is no guarantee of success.

Women lose in 'battle of sexes'

There is more to academic floors, one of the living alternatives offered in the dorms, than just books. Two such units in Wright Quad engaged in a "battle of the sexes."

he men of a third-rate intramural basketball team risked their fragile male egos on April 13 when they played a post-season challenge against the best women's team on campus.

Sigma Alpha Burr, a team that did not win a single regular season game, was challenged by a team which won the all-campus intramural women's basketball tournament and finished the season 9-0, the Hot Toddies of Wright Quad's Todd House.

Most of the players on the Sigma Alpha Burr team were from Jenkins House, another unit of Wright Quad situated directly across the quad courtyard from Todd House.

According to Hot Toddies captain and coach Diane Beaver, Sigma Alpha Burr was the definite underdog in the contest. Judging from their own undefeated record and the lackluster past performance of their opponent, the women's team members were confident they could win.

Sharing this opinion were several Jenkins House members. "I don't want to sound pessimistic, but I think Todd House is going to win," said Marty Wood, the social chairman of the men's unit.

But Keith Jones, captain of the Sigma Alpha Burr squad, said he thought his team would win because they couldn't afford to lose. "It makes us more determined to win because our pride is at stake," he said.

Jones did admit, however, that his team was not without weaknesses. "We are about as explosive as a wet firecracker," he said.

When the game began on Wednesday, both teams had a number of supporters on the sidelines. There was also one referee from Jenkins and one from Todd.

During the warm-ups, one of the Sigma Alpha Burr team members wore a "women's liberation" T shirt. As the game began, though, he was forced to take the shirt off: the men had agreed to be the "skins."

While Hot Toddies supporters clapped and yelled whenever their team made a basket, the Sigma Alpha Burr crowd prefered a more orderly system of cheers.

Some of the men's cheers included, "Repel them, repel them! Make them relinquish the ball," and "Advance, advance, ambulate over the turf!"

At half time, with the score favoring the Hot Toddies by two points, a pair of male cheerleaders took over the court to perform somersaults and cheers for the crowd.

As the second half got underway, the men's team slowly took the lead. The Hot Toddies were tiring by this time, since they had only six players on their team. (There were 12 men on the Sigma Alpha Burr squad.) As Sigma Alpha Burr continued to pull away from the Hot Toddies, one of the male players was harassed by a woman who pinched him as he threw an in-bounds pass.

The Sigma Alpha Burr crowd responded soon afterwards, yelling, "We're mad as hell and we're not going to take it anymore!"

When the game had ended, the men's team had handed the previously undefeated Hot Toddies their first loss, 46-38.

The Hot Toddies players and crowd were quiet after the game and left the HPER building quickly.

The next morning, the members of Jenkins House awoke to find their halls littered with shredded newspaper and nylons and their bathrooms coated with peanut butter and vaseline.

Although there were signs in the halls attributing the mess to Briscoe 8A, Jenkins' co-sponsor for Little 500, several house members were skeptical and thought it was possibly the work of Todd House.

Board of Aeons

A

eon is a Greek word which means "forever" or "eternity." The Board of Aeons won't exist forever, but its primary concern is long-term planning for the university.

The Aeons, an advisory committee to university president John Ryan, is "a sounding board for new ideas," according to James Wolfe, board member. These ideas cover a wide range of topics, including "how to increase funding for campus beauty and maintenance, what to do about the overcrowding of cars on campus and how academic programs could be made better," Wolfe said.

Academic programs was one of the topics of discussion of the first Board of Aeons, started by President William Lowe Bryan in 1921. The present board, consisting of twelve men and women, meets twice monthly with the president and other administrators.

The Aeons advise the administration about university issues, but have no authority to take action on these issues. As Wolfe said, "The board's purpose is to facilitate communications between the different student groups and the student body and the administration."

elta Sigma Pi, one of IU's professional business fraternities, provided its members with a year of social, professional and money-making activities. By selling donuts and washing cars, Delta Sigs increased their fund for the annual scholarship award to a qualified undergraduate in the School of Business.

Professional speakers from area enterprises gave Delta Sigma Pi members informative and helpful details about different occupations, the current job market and other business-related topics.

Social activities during the year included the annual Rose Dance at Christmas, a spring barn dance and numerous keggers and informal parties.

Women were a new addition to Delta Sigma Pi last year. The previously all-male fraternity considered female applications on the same basis as the men who applied for membership in the fraternity. All pledges had to survive a rigorous six-week pledgeship, during which they participated in mandatory social, professional, money-making, community and sports events with the fraternity actives.

Learning more about Indiana University's Business School and the business world were among the main objectives of Delta Sigma Pi. Participation in the fraternity also brought members friendship and knowledge.

IMUB Directors

he Indiana Memorial Union Board (IMUB) is one of the more diverse student operations on campus. IMUB sponsors programs that cover a wide spectrum of interests: films, lectures, concerts and coffee houses.

The board is composed of 20 directors, 16 of which are students. Eight of these student directors are elected, while the remaining eight are appointed by a committee. The other four directors include the Indiana Memorial Union's director and a representative from the administration, the faculty and alumni.

The student directors do the majority of the work, while the other four directors serve as advisers. After they are either elected or appointed, the students spend a weekend on a retreat, where they review the current Union Board programs and decide which are outdated. New ideas are then considered as replacements for the outmoded programs. At this time, each director is appointed to head a specific program.

There are 16 programs in all, with one director for each. One of the new programs that began last year was Fine Arts, which organized activities such as the art-lending library and the starving artist sale.

Each director has a different number of persons working under him, depending on the program. None of the workers are paid.

R

ecognition for outstanding achievement was not a rare occurrence for the Indiana Daily Student (ids) during the past academic year. During that time, the ids staff saw their newspaper receive All-American recognition from the American Collegiate Press, as well as the Newspaper of the Year Award from the Indiana Collegiate Press Association.

Mainly covering campus and city events, the ids, with its staff of 125 students, does not directly compete with large metropolitan newspapers, but rather serves those who want to learn about the university on a day-to-day-basis. The educational aspect, too, is a major emphasis of the paper, said Steve Jacob, assistant publisher. Students learn upstairs (in the School of Journalism) and come downstairs to practice on first floor," he said.

The ids is anticipating the purchase of an electronic editing system. The video display terminals — which comprise the electronic editing system — would make the production side of publishing the paper a more efficient and cleaner job, said Jacob. Funded by a Gannett Foundation grant and ids funds, the proposed system would replace outdated equipment and prepare students for the electronic newsrooms out in the "real world." Jacob also said that the display terminals would eventually eliminate the need for typewriters, glue and pencils, and would create the possibility of "sending materials to the backshop with the touch of a button."

Jack Backer 1934-1976

B

efore he came in 1969, the Daily Student was a money-losing laboratory newspaper run by the journalism department. When cancer claimed his life in December, 1976, the newspaper was an award-winning student-run news operation and had been profitable for six years.

Jack Backer was an ardent defender of the newspaper against its critics and an ardent internal critic as well. He had a subtle way of influencing the product. As one staff member said, he would plant an idea in your head one week and, with a straight face, congratulate you for thinking of it when it appeared in the paper the next week.

During Backer's tenure, the paper prospered financially. The number of pages, circulation, news space and total income doubled, while local advertising tripled. The staff won nearly 200 awards in writing, photography, design, illustration and advertising. The honors included 10 All-American awards, recognition as the nation's top college newspaper by both Sigma Delta Chi and the Associated Collegiate Press, two awards as the best college newspaper for advertising and business, and two major awards for design.

As an expert in newspaper layout and design, Backer was also in great demand nationally. His jaunts to national editor seminars often produced full-time jobs and summer internships for Daily Student staff members.

Because Backer had the rare combination of extensive news experience and an acute business mind, he could have commanded nearly a six-figure salary as a professional publisher. But, he preferred IU and the Daily Student. As he often said of the hundreds of students who flowed through the Daily Student newsroom to professional positions "I'm always fascinated by what people do to this institution and what the institution does to them."

Indiana University Foundation

T ndiana University Foundation. You see the name spatI tered here and there; you hear talk of the organization. But, you wonder, what exactly is Indiana University Foundation (IUF)? What role does it play in the life of IU, of the students? Well, there's no need to go on wondering.

Chartered in 1936 for the sole purpose of serving IU, IUF is a not-for-profit corporation that raises and administers funds, awards, grants and loans not covered by state money. Also assigned to IUF is the coordination and general supervision for all university-sponsored research and the responsibility of holding and developing patent rights.

With its 30-member board of directors (all heavy contributors to the university), IUF has many accomplishments to its credit. The organization was instrumental in instituting and successfully executing the 150th Birthday Fund Drive for IU. Donations from this campaign were used to supplement the Musical Arts Center, Assembly Hall, Hoosier Heritage Hall, the Indianapolis Center for Advanced Research and a proposed Fine Arts Pavillion. IUF, too, saw the completion of a $650,000 capital fund drive that helped to make the remodeling and equipping of the School of Journalism's Ernie Pyle Hall a reality.

A relatively new addition to IUF is The Well House Society, actively begun in 1976. The society encourages annual contributions of $1,500 to the university. Five hundred dollars of the contribution is an unrestricted gift, and donors may designate the use of the remaining $1,000.

uring the past year, the Interfraternity Council (IFC) worked steadily to "offer new life, revitalization, better unity and better achievement" to the Greek system, according to Russell Lindsey, president of the council.

This "new life" took the form of various activities and programs established by IFC. A major change came when the council set up a new, advanced rush system, which offered a better opportunity for individuals to see each of the fraternity houses, Lindsey said. To further promote the Greek system, IFC continued work on two projects — a 40page rush brochure covering several perspectives of the IU fraternity system, and a multi-media presentation geared toward IU frat life, Lindsey said.

In addition to these internal activities, IFC began a new program involving the university. An "Employe of the Month" was chosen from university non-faculty employes and honored with a dinner and a commemorative plaque. The council also worked to establish a "Professor of the Month" award.

The primary purpose of the Interfraternity Council is to serve the individual fraternities," Lindsey said. The secondary task is "to serve the university and community," he continued. The IFC aided this last area, the community, by its contributions to the American Cancer Society. Donations for this cause are raised during IFC's "Greek Week" each fall.

La Casa

T a Casa, located on East Seventh Street, is a place where L./Latino students can meet with one another on a formal or informal basis. According to Gloria Enguidanos, graduate adviser at La Casa, it is "a home away from home" for the Latino student.

ALMA, a group of Latinos from the Midwest, uses La Casa as a place to conduct its meetings. Some of the other activities at the house include picnics, parties and orientation for prospective Latino students.

There are several facilities provided to the Latinos at La Casa, such as a small library, typewriters, Spanish newspapers and magazines and a pool table.

Although La Casa is specifically designed for the Latino student, anyone is welcome there.

Panhellenic

P

anhellenic Council is "a judicial body over all the sororities," according to council president Joy Myers. But the group's work goes beyond Greek activities.

Each year Panhellenic Council contributes time and energy to help a university or community organization. During the past year, members of the council sold Reese's peanut butter eggs to raise money for the Volunteer Students' Bureau. This effort resulted in a donation of $200 to the bureau.

Sororities benefit from the Panhellenic's work, also, as the council awards eight $200 scholarships to deserving Greek house members yearly. Panhellenic also sponsors workshops to make sororities more aware of scholarship opportunities.

Besides providing financial aid information, the council possesses a "resource file," which contains the national magazines of each of the houses. The file also has materials listing ideas for membership development, philanthropic and scholarship fund-raising ideas, and suggestions for social activities.

Student Alumni Council

f you've ever wondered where those little plaques hang' ing on campus trees have come from, worry no more. They are one of the many projects of the Student Alumni Council (SAC).

SAC, "the student wing of the Alumni Association," is a "reorganization of the Senior Class Council," said John Schwalm, vice-president of SAC.

After revamping the group in 1976-77, some of the activities were also changed. SAC has reinstated the tree dedication program. Rather than dedicate a standing tree, as had been done in the past, SAC decided to plant a new tree to replace those cut down or destroyed on campus.

SAC was not only concerned with the growth of trees, but it was also concerned with the growth of local children. Using money raised from a candy cane sale, the council donated $200 to the Head Start program in Bloomington.

Outside of these two projects, SAC concentrated on activities which provided service to alumni and future alumni. This is the main purpose of the council, Schwalm said.

These activities included sponsoring post-football game receptions at the Woodburn House and conducting campus tours on the "Big Red" bus. SAC also provided Homecoming escorts for the 50-year members of the I-Men's Club.

omewhere out there are 130 underprivileged children who saw their first IU football game last fall. And there are also 54 kids who attended their first IU basketball game last winter and later had hot dogs and beans with the team. Wherever they are, the children who attended these events have some happy, fun-filled memories — all courtesy of the Student Athletic Board (SAB).

Serving as a liason between the athletic department, alumni and student body, the SAB exists as a body to promote inter-collegiate athletics. Two hundred students, including three advisers, committee chairmen and 15 steering committee members, comprise the organization. This year, in addition to the children's day receptions, SAB sponsored receptions for alumni and state legislators, and hosted pregame receptions for the Hoosier Hundred.

The SAB is divided into various committees, each one dealing with a major and minor area of student athletics. Homecoming, Parents' Weekend, football, basketball, women's athletics, promotions and as of next year, soccer, are considered major areas, while non-revenue sports are included in the minor area groupings.

Any interested student may apply for membership on the Student Athletic Board, and as organization president Robert Lindsey put it, "It's a lot of fun; we do a lot of fun things. And it's pretty rewarding to know that the students and the department appreciate what we're doing."

WIUS

J

ust like countless other radio stations of today, WIUS fills its airtime with contemporary rock music. But unlike countless other stations, WIUS is run entirely by students; there are no faculty advisers.

The station has a dual purpose. It is presented as a service to the IU community, and, at the same time provides a training ground for broadcasting students. Approximately 50 students work at WIUS. Around 25 of these persons actually go on the air as disc jockeys. The station is funded by advertising, which is also collected by the students.

In April, WIUS celebrated its tenth year with a sixties week, when every other song on the weekdays was taken from the 1960's. Another special program was the Millard Fillmore Hour, which was broadcast every weeknight from 10 p.m. to 11 p.m. The hour was used for playing new albums uninterrupted by commercial messages.
