Tom Wolfe Will Speak at Commencement Tom Wolfe, the author of 11 widely acclaimed books on American life, will speak Saturday. May 6. at Longwood's Sesqulcentennlal Commencement and receive the honorary degree of Doctor of Humane Letters. Commencement will be held on Wheeler Mall, starting at 9 a.m. The ceremony Is open to the entire college community and the public. Mr. Wolfe is generally regarded as the outstanding literary Journalist of his time and the chief architect of the "New Journalism" that applied narrative devices of fiction to factual reporting and changed the face of non-fiction. His books and articles have focused on and dramatized American social phenomena and cultural revolutions since 1960. His Electric KoolAid Acid Test (1968) Is

widely considered the best account of the counterculture of the 1960s. He has lampooned artists and architects, radicals and socialites, stock car drivers and stockbrokers, and himself. His 1987 novel. The Bonfire of the Vanities, was the nation's best seller for many months and is expected to be made into a movie. Another best-seller. The Right Stuff (1979), was the basis for an Oscar-winning film about the American astronauts. His other best-known works include: The KandyKolored Tangerie Flake Streamline Baby (1965); The Pump House Gang (1968); Radical Chic and MauMauing the Flak Catchers (1970); The Painted Word (1975); Mauve Cloves and Madmen, Clutter and Fine and other stories, sketches, and essays (1976);

From Bauhaus to Our House (1981): and The Purple Decades: A Reader (1982). Some of his more important concerns are included in such stories as "The Commercial." The Intelligent Coed's Guide to America." 'The Me Decade and the Third Great Awakening," "Sex and Violence: The Perfect c me," "Pornoviolence," 1f y Chic." and "Honks i. nks." writes frequently for magazines such as Harper's, Esquire, and Newsweek, and he has done several book reviews for The New York Times. An artist as well as a writer, he has exhibited drawings in one-man shows at the Maynard Walker Gallery and the Tunnel Gallery, both in New York City. As a writer he has received such honors as Longwood's

College Students and AIDS (CPS) — "Significant numbers" of college students will be suffering from AIDS in the 1990s, the head of the American College Health Association's AIDS task force told a health conference in Seattle the first week of April. "This is not a potential problem on campuses," Dr. Richard Keeling, who also heads the University of Virginia's health services department, told a regional meeting of doctors, nurses and hospital administrators in Seattle. "It's an established problem." About three out of every 1.000 collegians carry the HIV virus, which causes AIDS (acquired Immune deficiency syndrome), a preliminary Centers for Disease Control report estimated last fall. AIDS is a fatal disease that breaks down the body's Immune system. It is often

spread through certain kinds of sexual contacts. Health experts have long considered college students, who generally are sexually more promiscuous than other people, as running a high risk of contracting the disease. "Most students now have a fairly good base of information about AIDS," he said. 'We need to facilitate links between what they know and what they do." Keeling thought most of the students now infected won't begin to suffer AIDs symptoms until the early 1990s because the virus takes that long to destroy the immune system. At that point. Keeling expects campus health services to be overwhelmed. 'We're still in the infancy of providing the range of medical and psychological services'" needed to treat AIDS patients.

A Look at Speaker Wright The Speaker of the House of Representatives. Jim Wright of Texas Is fighting for his political life. The House of Ethics report to be released today or tomorrow probably will find that Speaker Wright did violate various House rules. Some Democrats say that if the report indicates that he did not violate House rules. Speaker Wright will emerge as a much stronger force. However, most believe the 456 page report will leave the speaker damaged goods, whatever Its findings. The committee is looking at allegations that Wright and his wife received money, use of a Cadillac and an apartment from a Texas businessman. George Malllck, who had extensive real estate, oil and gas holdings. These "favors" amounted to more than $100,000. It is alleged that Wright intervened many times where Malllck had an Interest including helping out a failing Savings and Loan In Texas, where Malllck was having large loans called In. Wright is also accused of impropriety with the sale of his book. "Reflections of a Public Man." which he and one of his government paid staff member wrote. He took a rather large (55% of the royalties) from its sale and It is alleged that special interests bought large amounts of the books as what has been described as a "pay-off." This let Wright get around the cap on honoraria a representative can receive, because book royalties are not Included. The democrats are concerned, and rightly so. that Mr. Wright will become the sleaze issue of the 1990 House elections and If he did violate House rules, they will want to swiftly replace him to remove this liability. His replacement will be the highly credible House Majority Leader. Rep. Thomas Foley. It Is true that a democratic system such as ours will not always produce capable leaders. For the man that Is second in line to succeed the presidency to be running a money laundering operation disguised as a book is cannot be considered petty but as full scale corruption.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Party Courtesy Dear Editor. I am writing this letter concerning party courtesy and courtesy to the host or hostess. Too many students take advantage of the college parties. Students feel that they have the right to enter any room or building regardless of who Is invited or who Is sponsoring the party. An example of this is the use of the Commons Room between Frazer and Curry. It Is widely known as a passage way between the two build ings. But in many cases it is the location of private parties. When students continue to pass through the Commons Room during parties it Interferes with the host or hostess' rights of having private parties with invited guests only.

To remedy this situation I suggest that when a student sees a party going on he or she refrains from using this passage way. This will allow the host or hostess' rights to be protected and interuptions kept to a minimum. The host or hostess should also make It clearly known or visible that a party is In progress. This will also keep Interuptions minimal. A Concerned Student Editor's Jiote: This letter was written by a student as part of his/her probation and thus his/her name was withheld.

S-UN Misconception To The Editor. I would like to vary from the all "Too" contnjversal "Lawnwood" furniture for a moment and talk on a misperception that I've come to understand that many of the student body might not understand. No matter how funny it might sound, the student union is not a building, not an organization composed of faculty, but a group of students that provide entertainment, activities and a social perspective for Longwood students. The funding for these entertainment programs come from the student's pockets; a good substantial size. Just about anything can be done with this money, but no one seems to either want or care to help

ROTUNDA POLICY


April 18. 1989 The Rotunda

f COMMENTARY Faculty and Administrative Salaries

CLASS AND HONOR BOARD ELECTIONS TUESDAY, April 18 and WEDNESDAY, April 19

In keeping with other state school newspapers in Virginia and across the nation. The Rotunda editorial board approved a motion to print a representative sampling of the salaries of Longwood's Administration and Faculty. We wish to stress that The Rotunda is no more privy to this information than is anyone else at Longwood, and that these figures are readily available in the Employee Relations Office year round as part of the public record. The names of those concerned have omitted to insure anonymity, for, in this instance, we feel that the individual drawing the salary is not so important as the salary itself. We are providing these figures with a view to enhancing the college community's awareness of how the state rewards its employees for the services provided to the Longwood student body.

Polls open at 11:00 a.m. in the new Smoker and will be closing at 6.00 p.m. on both these days. The following are funning pending registrar's approval:

(Continued from page 4) So as Speaker Wright goes forward with his defense before the charges are even known, he should stop clamoring that he is not being treated fairly by his own party or that he Is being held accountable by some unbelievable standard. The fact of the matter is that is being treated fairly and probably more so than those in the Executive Branch and even the Judicial. Let's get to the bottom of this without. Speaker Wright, challenging the credibility of the Ethics committee, and If he is found to be in the wrong, move forward with a replacement and get back to the Important matters that are facing our nation today.

Longwood Splits With Virginia Wesleyan By ROXIE LOCKWOOD Friday's Longwood Softball games were hard-fought battles for supremacy. Longwood lost the first game to Virginia Wesleyan 4-3 and won the second 6-5 In eight Innings. The victory marks the first time Longwood has defeated Wesleyan. The Lady Lancers finish the season on the road with games Monday at North Carolina Wesleyan and Saturday at Virginia Tech. Longwood's record Is now 8-12. After losing the first game on questionable calls. Longwood was determined to win the second. At first. Longwood's chances seemed dim. As Cheryl Scharr struggled on the mound. Virginia Wesleyan scored two runs In the first and two In the third. Scharr got support from her teammates when Mltzy Hairfield walked and stole second. Carmllle Barnette

singled to put Hairfield on third. She came home on a wild pitch to Melissa Gwlnn. Virginia Wesleyan loaded the bases with two out In the fifth, but Scharr extracated herself by getting the VWC third baseman to pop out to Gwinn. Mary Dalley singled In the sixth, then Jill Everett beat out a bunt. Dalley went to third on a wild pitch to Pam Fitzgerald and stole home. Hairfield and Scharr led off the seventh with back-toback singles. Barnett sacrificed and Gwlnn singled to bring in Hairfield. Dalley doubled to score Gwinn and went to third courtesy of Everett. And at third she stayed. At the end of regulation the score was tied at four. To break the tie. the coaches agreed to place a runner on second. The VWC runner scored to go ahead 54.

Fitzgerald began the Longwood half of the Inning on second. Amanda Whitby, pinch hitting for Mullenlx, walked and stole second. The table was set for Laura Marks who doubled over the head of the rightflelder. Fitzgerald scored. Whitby scored and Marks was mobbed by celebrating teammates. Scharr allowed five runs on 11 hits, walked none and struck out one. Her record Is 4-4. "This is a very satisfying win for us," said coach Loretta Coughlln. "It's nice to beat our old nemesis. This was really a team win." In the first game, the Blue Marlins scored two runs in the first inning, but Longwood countered in the third. Barnette gave the VWC third baseman a ball too hot to handle. Gwlnn walked and Dalley singled. Everett and Fitzgerald were issued free

passes to bring Barnette and Gwlnn home. Cassle Mullenlx cracked a single into center and Dalley scored. The VWC sixth hinged on two disputed calls. The second Blue Marlin to come up doubled and tried to steal third. She was called safe, a call the Longwood bench hotly disputed, and later scored. After the second out. a Longwood error allowed the Marlin second baseman to reach. She scored on another disputed call. In spite of Gwinn's walk in the seventh. Longwood went down to a one-run defeat. The defensive play of the game came in the seventh when catcher Hairfield propelled herself headlong, falling forward in front of the plate to catch a short pop fly. A. D. Miller continued to be a hard-luck pitcher. She gave up four runs on six hits, walked five and struck out none. Her record is 4-8.

Longwood's men's tennis team, off to its best start in several years, beat Greensboro College Thursday 5-4 and Newport News Apprentice Friday 7-2 for a 4-2 record. Grabbing double wins for the Lancers last week In singles were Vlnce Osbom. Mike Mooney. and Chris Healing. The doubles team of Osbom and Mike Pugh also logged wins in both matches. This week the Lancers host Randolph-Macon Monday and play at Greensboro Wednesday. Longwood will play in the Southeastern Athletic Association Tour nament Saturday and Sunday in Huntsville, Alabama.

Hot Bats Spark Lancers Over A & T Longwood tied the national record for doubles In a game Thursday and shattered its own mark for homers In a game Sunday as the Lancer baseball team got its offensive attack in gear last week. The 21-9 Lancers beat North Carolina A & T Sunday 16-7 in the final home game of the season behind a school record six homers. Longwood will play its remaining eight games on the road, starting with visits to Randolph-Macon Tuesday and to Radford Saturday for a doubleheader. Longwood. which beat Virginia State in a twin bill last Monday 7-3 and 9-2. ran into a hot-hitting Atlantic Christian team Thursday in Wilson. NC and came away with 14-13 and 9-2 defeats. The Lancers lost the opener despite smashing 11 doubles, a figure which tied the national record for college division teams and broke the Longwood mark of six. According to the 1988 Collegiate Baseball Record Book. the existing doubles mark for college division squads (NAIA.

NCAA Divisions II & III), is set by California Poly Pomona against Long Beach State in 1985. Homers Highlight Victory Trailing 6-4 after three Innings against A & T Sunday. Longwood broke loose for five homers over the final six frames, Including three-run shots by Moeller. Smith and Mike Laufler. Conroy added a two-run homer In the second, and Crisione and Scott Ma ciejewskl had solo homers. The six homers by six different players broke the old Longwood record for homers In a game. Five times previously Longwood had hit five homers In a single contest. In addition to the circuit clouts, Conroy had four hits and Moeller three. Sunday's game marked the final home appearance for Conroy atid fellow-seniors E. J. Bryant, Rice and Eric Killinger. In addition to Conroy's big day.
