Conference Approves of Alchohol

byNancyBallog

With the addition of Mount Union College, twenty-two out of twenty-three colleges 1n the Ohio Athletic Conference, of which Otterbein is a part, approved the policy for alcohol consumption on campus, either in campus centers, in fraternities, in sororities, or in bars within walking distance depending on the school and their specific alcohol policy.

MUC took an Alcohol Survey of the new policy for effective results in the conference schools.

Their collective summary included results in financial support, residence hall destruction, academic and social atmospheres, disciplinary problems, and student enrollment.

Financial support for the conference schools has changed slightly . There have been threats to cut college donations and contributions because of the alcohol policy, but there has been no consequence in any o f the schools .

The new- policy actually caused a decrease in residence hall destruction and has brought increased openness between

students and faculty at three colleges. Many of the schools' residence hall destruction remained the same. -One school reported an increase in vandalism, but this increase was very slight.

Disciplinary problems had a slight increase at the College of Wooster, but the policy brought more openness between faculty and students in dealing with individual problems. Yet Ohio Wesleyan University reported an actual decrease in problems. Most schools reported no change in problems. Instead there has been the increased ability to deal with,, th1: problems.

None of the colleges reported any significant changes or drops in academics. Three colleges had improved conditions academically.

Socially, the atmosphere · became more relaxed and less hypocritical at seven colleges.

There was increased campus gatherings with better feelings towards the administration. Three colleges reported no significant change in the social atmosphere.

At most schools there was no change in the student enrollment.

Two schools reported an increase in enrollment tlue to the "recognition of the changing times."

The colleges in the , Ohio Athletic Conference which have approved the alcohol policy for their campuses are BaldwinWallace College, Capital University, Denison University, Heidelberg College, Kenyon College, Marietta College, Muskingum College, Oberlin College, Ohio Wesleyan University, Wittenberg Univ_ersity, and the College of Wooster.

Ohio Northern University does not permit alcohol on campus, but there are bars directly across the street from the campus for student gatherings and alcohol consumption.

Otterbein is the last school in the conference to not have alcoiiOl permitted on campus in any way, or to have any bars within walking distance as does Ohio Northern.

With the approval of the conference, Otterbein will surely acknowledge the resultive effects of the new policy. These results will have great effect upon which path Otterbein will follow.

Wintsr WBBl<snd thi1 Fridsy snd $sturdsy Winter Weekend . I 97 5 will commence this evening and continue through Saturday night.

The production continues through tomorrow night. Curtain is at 8:15 p.m . - .

Scapin continues h S d throug atur ay To add to the list of Winter Weekend events, the theatre department is presenting Moliere's comedy " Scapin ."

Under the guest director Pat Ryan, everyone has worked to present an evening of uncontrollable laughter.

The story develops as the mischievous servant, Scapino, plots to outwit everyone he encounters. He gets pleasure out of helping the young lovers trick their stingy fathers. Each plot he involves in makes surprising developments and causes some hilarious reactions. Coming up with new tricks, Scapino can even keep himself on his toes as to what will come next.

A v_ery colorful show by way of

activity coincides with the technical directors, Jim Avidan, set of black and white commedia 'd arte style. Also, the set is brought right to the audience for a personal, involved atmosphere.

Costuming is very stylized with coordinating colors and delicate accents .

The cast has worked through improvisations and involvement of characterizations to produce a fun-filled evening for all. Take this opportunity to see the work and development of students to create an enjoyable evening for , it's audiences. The show-promises to provide pleasure to all who attend. Final performa!}ces are today and Saturday at 8: 15 p.m.

Greek Cheer Night Set for Tomorrow The first annual GREEK CHEER NIGHT is set for tomorrow night.

'What is it?' you ask.

'We're not exactly sure,' we say. But there's a first · time for everything, and this is it.

WOBN, Otterbeins oldest and best (and only) radio station, and The Tan and Cardinal are sponsoring the event, with each providing $15 for a $30 grand prize! All you have to do is scream for it!

The idea is to liven up the game :with some audible cheering, and to liven up the team with some spirit. And, its a chance for Greeks and their pledges to get together and raise some group hell!

The contest involves both Fraternities and Sororities, with one Greek group coming out on top. Four judges will be determmmg who wins: Ralph Carapoletti (Campus Center Director), Al Alberts · (Head Resident in Garst Hall), Elen

Dagen (Head Resident in Mayne Hall), and Mrs. Eileen Thomas (Head Resident in Hanby).

The factors involved in a win are as follows, and will be judged on the scale of 5 (high) - to 1 (low): 1.) The percentage of a Greek organization attending the game.

This will be figured in defference to the small frats and sorors.

2.) Volume is perhaps the most .important factor in the contest. The judges will mark this category with great discretion.

3.) Originality of the cheers is another important factor.

Planned group cheers count heavily for a Greek. However, general noise and spirit is also important.

4.) Audience reaction to cheering must be positive. This will weigh heavily in favor of the.

Greeks with the best cheering.

5.) Quality of cheering is judged on combined volume, originality, and crowd effect. This

I Policy

to a Good Holiday

For those of us who remember Spring Fever Day last year, and especially for those who remember it two years ago, when it was an unannounced holiday, this school year just won't be the same.

Spring Fever Day is dead.

After C.P.B. decided that the holiday was too much for them to •iandle, and the Administrative Council agreed, the ball was fum­ bled. No one came to the rescue of the holiday. No one offered a ,uggestion for a viable alternative to the Day. Freshmen who -had never experienced a real Spring Fever Day voted to get rid of it, and so 1he Administrative Council did just that-got rid of it. The day made like George Orwell's newspeak and was stricken ftom the record. But it wasn't stricken from our memories .

Perhaps you remember when word spread like Otterbein gossip that Spring Fever Day had been announced and tomorrow classes were cancelled. Perhaps you remember the electric feeling of release-the sudden care-less-ness and childishness of the day. Those .ire good memories.

It is important to our very spirit to have a holiday like Spring Fever Day. Though this is an academic community which seriously ,trives to give us an adult maturity, it should not forget about the child in all of us that is dying to get out, and must be let out or go crazy. Particularly in a church related school there needs to be at least one day set aside for the letting down of the hair . Just one! fhat is more important than ending the school year one or two days early.

My hope is that students will not stand motionless and let this happen to a good holiday. Truely, if there is a will there's a way to revive the Day-especially in a school that allows so much 'student participation' in decisions .

If C.P.B. can't handle it, then why not the I.F.'C. or Pan-He!, or both? Someone must care about it. At least some one.

The matter goes deeper than Spring Fever Day however. It is a question of really how apathetic the students are. Do we care? Do we care about anything? I hope the answer comes back YES. If not, well . ..farewell to a good holiday.

Nobody Wrote

Sbldant Truatae This week I would like to start with a paraphrase of a quote i heard one night last week while watching the six o'clock news.

The subject at hand was the creation of a govenment task force for one reason or another.

One government official made a comment on task forces in general and I believe he hit the nail on the head. He said today, task forces tend to multiply like a yard full of untended rabbits. Ring a bell? The subject on my mind however, is not any task force. This week I would prefer to take a stab at common courses.

The common course structure at Otterbein, as we have all heard, was created with purposeful intentions. We are a liberal arts college, and as such, the college is obliged to provide us with a liberal, or well rounded education. l believe that this goal is an honorable one and very

Garfinkel Repo.rts desirable. the better informed we are about as much of the world as possible, the better off we should be in the end. Flexible, and able to converse well on any number of subjects. However, I also believe that the methods of im­ plementation in some of the common course areas are defeating the intended results.

The common course should be suplementary, and quite often are complimentary to the students major field of study . They should be given adequate importance in rounding out the students education, but they should not infringe on the students efforts to achieve success in his major subjects. The student should not be expected to allocate the same amount of time to common courses as his major courses, and this is too often the case. In many cases the Professors simply expect too much from common course

students. After, or while taking one of the common courses, the student is liable to be led to believe that he is taking a course designed for majors in that particular field . T he student finds himself devoting as much or more time to the common course as his other subjects which detracts from the amount of time that should be devoted to his major.

This seems to me to be totally irrational and out of line with the purpose of the common course.

There are several particular courses, which through personal experience and conversa.tion with others, I have fQund to be an extreme time infringement.

Somewhere priorities are being misplaced , and it is only the students' grades that suffer.

Common courses should serve their purpose, but they should not be overdone.

SCOPE from the Inside playing, ping-pong,TV-watching , and just talking. Surprisingly enough, the students aren't rejecting them . As a matter of fact, over 80"7o of the students are accepting the volunteers. Most people would expect the students to say that they are just accepting them because they have nothing else to do . This is not true. Many of the students receive a deep down warm sensation. You can not possibly imagine how h2ppy the volunteers make us unless you were once institutionalized yourself. Some of the students here do not receive visitors on the week-end. The volunteers present a "big brother" or "big sister" image to some of us. I think it is just wDnderful to see people communicating. The volunteers aren't required to come. They come on their own time with their own facilities out of the goodness of their hearts. It is not every day people are willing to take their time, gas, money, or anything just for a few kids in an institution. I'd like to thank these volunteers for the time and moriey they spend for the students here in the institution.

--Mark G.

What's SCOPE? Students Concerned Over People Everywhere, huh? Not many people are aware of what makes up SCOPE. Well, one group of SCOPE travels every Tuesday evening to meet with juvenile delinquents of all ages and sexes at Buckeye Youth Center.

However, a true description of exactly what volunteer work means, what the volunteers do, and their purpose can only be best described by someone who knows. So here's a look at SCOPE from the inside ...

The Otterbein volunteers come here to Buckeye Youth Center every Tuesday evening to meet with students of the institution for a few hours to try and get them involved in recreational activities.

Sex Program Coming~long The R .P.S. _ Human Sexuality Program has met .with unqualified success. Overflow crowds have attended the first three sessions , and have reported great interest and enthusiasm about the program.

Next week's program will again be held in Lemay Lecture Hall, rather than in the Campus Center.

The topic will be "V .D. - The Epidemic," with guest speaker Dr. Norris E. Lenahan, M.D. The topic will cover the facts about

V.D. ; its nature, how to identify it , and what one should do if they feel they have contracted the disease.

Dr. Lenahan is another highly qualified speaker with two pos111ons, two eneritus fellowships, and a background of 20 years in a family practice.

Dean Old~comments that he is elated about the success of the Sexuality Programs, and the po'sitive response to ·it from the· students.

FDA _to Approve .

'Morning After' Pilr According to Edward Nida, public information officer for the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), that agency will approve the sale and use of the "morning after" contraceptive pill diethylstibestrol (DES).

The final agency ruling will be that DES "is regarded as safe and effective, but not for continuous use," according to Nida . .

The FDA conductec tests on DES after several years of con­ troversy over the drug. About five years ago, studies were published linking cancer in girls to use of the drug by · their mothers in early pregnancy.

This led the FDA to ban DES in cattle feed, where it was used as a growth hormone, because traces of the drug were found in cattle livers ingested by humans at levels considered unsafe. Following tests of DES, the cattle feed ban was lifted.

DES is a synthetic estrogen which has been found to be nearly 100"70 effective in averting a pregnancy when taken within 72 hours after unprotected in-

tercourse. Opponents of the drug have claimed that high doses of . estrogens, synthetic or natural, can cause cancer in women using it.

Dr. David Bard, a specialist in female genital tract cancers, working with high-dose estrogen drugs under a federal grant at the University of Florida, said that his studies have found that DES only affects the developing female fetus, but not the mother.

Such female children have "varying degrees of abnormal development in the upper vagina and cervix," which if detected. early enough is "almost always" curable without damaging the reproductive capacity of affected females, said Bard.

Bard described DES and other morning-after pills as "safer than abortions." · However, the FDA's ruling may not be popular. "There's just too little known about it," said one DES critic. "And we're not too big on women being ex­ perimented on."

Owls, Talisman, Arbutus fill quota Over 80 girls pledged one of the seven social sororities last Monday night, as each sorority held pledging ceremonies. For the next eight weeks, (pledges) girls will be wearing a variety of pledge pins, a multitude of sorority and pledge shirt, and carrying their pledge notebooks. They better beware, if they forget to do one of

the above when it's required, or the actives will give bad points and extra duties. Greek Week will be held April 3-5.

Sigma Alpha Tau, Tau Epsilon Mu, and Epsilon Kappa Tau filled their quota of 18 girls, p(eviously set by the Panhellenic Council.

Theta Nu received seventeen g.irls, plus two girls off-quota (which

means that they went through rush before, so they were not considered to be included in the 18 that could be taken.in.) Kappa Phi Omega received eight pledges plus four girls off-quota. Tau Delta and Rho Kappa Delta received two pledges each.

You S1id It/// by: Elsa Giammarco and Kerry G.ould This is the beginning of a new T and C column called "You Said It!!!" We will be roving Bein's campus for views and opinions concerning both general and current issues.

This week's question is: "If there would be anything that you could change here at Otterbein, what would it be?"

DARCI BIRMINGHAM, Sophomore "Add a swimming pool onto the Otterdome. It's a real shame the proposal was dropped.

Wouldn't it be wonderful to find a little 'ole philanthropist dropping a few thousand for a pool. ... " DA VE MITCHELL, Freshman "I would rewrite the rule concerning the use of alcohol.

There is no valid reason for the · rule and it should be legalized.

Drinking, as is smoking (which is legal) is a matter of personal choice and should not be left up to the Board of Trustees. They really don't represent the students."

GRETCHEN FREEMAN, Sophomore "If I could change one thing at Otterbein, I would change the format of rush for sororities.

Sororities and fraternities are the biggest social activity Otterbein offers. Thus, 1· think that it is important that those girls who wish to join sororities can, insteaq of being turned away.

Also I feel our campus is almost too small for seven sororities.

Answers for solving. this problem can't be found overnight, but if a committee were formed that had a member of each sorority in it, and looked into this problem, I believe that the rush system could be changed to suit the girls' needs.

It's really stupid that so many

people have to be hurt- both the girls going through rush and those who are in.the sororities.

STEPHANIE SKEMP, Freshman "If I could change one thing about Otterbein's campus; I'd change the stupid, gossipy, childish way some people act. No · one can keep a confidence and everyone has to know everyone else's business. It's the old "Did you see John with Sheila-wait 'ti! Mary hears," syndrome. I experienced this same thing in high school and hoped I could get away from it here, but not so.. .it's almost worse here.

Sometimes I ~en find myself guilty of it and I hate it when I do."

TAN AND CARDINAL which Congress placed last year on U.S. military activity in Viet­

WEEKLY SPEEIAL

On the House side, Foreign Affairs chairman Thomas Morgan is planning a com­ prehensive review of military aid. Both the Senate and House committees will cl~ly examine the Vladivn5tok agreement bet­ ween President Ford and Soviet party leader Leonid Brezhnev.

And a full review of U.S. policy in the Middle East is almn5t cer­ tain Ii1 the months to come, it looks as if Kissinger's moo excruciat­ ing diplomacy will take place on Capitol Hill.

Closet Hawk: Ii1 private con­ versations, President Ford often talks like a hawk. He doesn't think the United States . should knuckle under to the oil poten­ tates. It wrun't Secretary of State Kissinger, it was the Presi­ dent himself, who raised the possibility of military interven­ tion to prevent the economic strangulation of the We& by oil powers.

The President is also deter­ mined to support South Vietnam and South Korea against the Communist threat. He has com­ plained about a congressional limit on military aid to Saigon.

This, he protested, would deprive Kissinger of hi!j bargaining power to get the Russians and Chinese to hold

by Jack Anderson with Joe Spear

Ford is sympathetic to the views of the auto makers. · His loyalty will soon be tested again. The Big Three, it seems, want the government to reduce bumper standards. The car kin~ say that bumpers which will ab­ sorb a five-mile-an-hour impact are too heavy. They want bum­ pers that will take no more than a three-mile-an-hour crash.

The motor moguls say they want to save gas. But many cri­ tics believe the automakers want to get what they can while they have a friend in the White House.

Hounding· Henry: Secretary of State Henry Kissinger will have Congress watching over his shoulder for the next two years.

Idaho's Sen. Frank Church, chairman of the new committee to investigate in~elligence agen­ cies and the number two man on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, has told friends pri­ vately he's going to start doing some muckraking in the State Department. Other congressional leaders are also preparing to keep a sharper eye on foreign policy.

Under Church's prodding, for example, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee will de­ mand to know why they weren't told about U.S. reconnais5ance flights over Vietnam. Theyy also . intend to review whether this is a violation of the restrictions

down their arms shipments to North Vietnam

But Ford has made clear in his private conversations that he will never send American troop; back to Vietnam. The whispers of U.S. military action against , North Vietnam are completely false, the President has told friends. He may favor increased military aid for Saigon, he said, but on the question of U.S. mili­ tary involvement there, he is a dove.

Congress: In the beginning was the hill With the 94th Congress •.:onvened in Washington, an indication of the makeup of the new Hou~e may lie in the bills introduced in the first few days of the legislative session .

Eleven bills have , been in­ troduced in the House extending "to all unmarried individuals the 1·u11 tax benefits of income plitting now enjoyed by married :1dividuals filing joint returns ." ·\ II of them were referred to the l\'ays and Means Committee, where they currently comprise the Jiggest single bloc of legislation iefore that panel.

Three bills proposed giving tax .redits for education expenses and ;or money used to give a tax Jependent a post-secondary education. If any are passed, the burdens of paying for a college education · will be eased at least slightly.

Three bills in the hopper would abolish the US Postal Service and return mail service to the sole control of the US Government.

A number of other bills were introduced only once, and the interesting ideas they present may

1

surface sometime in the next two years .

One would forbid a retailer to change the price of an item once a price had already been affixed to the item.

Another would make colleges ineligible for federal student loan assistance unless they have a tuition refund policy for students withdrawing prior to the end of a ,emester.

And a third would make mandatory the establishment of a nutrition value grading system for use by re.toil customers.

Of course, sandwiched in with all the other bills are a few pieces of legislation whose time may not have come- and maybe never will .

Two bills would require the printing of braille symbols on all US currency. If passed, it'll mean the end of ripping off your neigh­ borhood blind street vendor.

Another money bill would authorize the Treasury to print up some special bicentennial $2 bills.

And one bill absolutely destined for an obscrue death would require anyone holding public office to resign prior to filing for candidacy to any federal office if the term of his current office doesn't run out before the start of his hoped-for new office.

That would mean any Governors or Senators who wanted to run for President would have to resign unless they were lame ducks.

A similarly doomed bill would penalize congressmen who failed to meet certain attendance requirements by docking part of their salary.

Finally, Rep. Don Yount (R­ AK) has introduced HR 1214, which would make it a treasonable act to display the flag of "certain hostile countries."

Ford and the Auto Men

WASHINGTON - President Ford's new economic ·package could well be stamped "Made in Detroit."

The auto industry was ex­ empted from meeting the new clean-air standards and it will profit the mn5t from the Presi­ dent's tax rebate plan The car makers' good fortune is no surprise to those who know Gerald Ford. A native of Michigan, the home of the auto industry, he was weaned in the cradle of America's car culture.

Auto executives number among his best friends.

Rodney W. Markley, for ex­ ample, is the chief Washingtoo lobbyist for the Ford Motor Co. and is a frequent golfing compa­ nion of the President. Markley was on his way to the French Riviera when he learned that his friend was to be sworn in as the 38th President. He rushed back in time for a gathering that evening in the Ford home.

As House minority leader, Gerald Ford religiously sup­ ported the policies of President Richard Nixon. But there was one exception. Ford made a rare break with Nixon to marshall the votes against opening the hipway trust fund for mas.5 transit aid - a move also op­ posed by the auto industry.

There is nothing sinister in all this. But it is clear that President

'' I SEE THE KIN(; HAS ~EEN TO THE HA~DWARE STORE MAIN~

Bad News and Bad News The good news for the college grad seeking employment is that this year's job outlook will only be a little worse than last yearjs .

The bad news is that last year's opportunities were the worst since World War II. Just how bad the job market is depends on two factors: your chosen field and · your ex­ pectations.

Most surveys agree that chemical, mechanical and elec­ trical engineers (in that order) will have the least trouble finding jobs in their field, · and that professionals in accounting, sales, and computer systems remain in demand by job recruiters.

All other areas, according to a survey of 701 employment organizations taken by the College Placement Council (CPC), show declines in an­ ticipated hiring: Sciences, mathematics and other technical openings are down 120Jo; business is down 11 OJo, other non-technical openings are down three per cent and unclassified jobs are down six per cent.

Hiring by state and federal governments is , however, ex­ pected to be about the same as last year. In its fall newsletter the Civil Service Commission said that last year more than 12,000 liberal arts and other "generalist" candidates were hired out of a total 22,6000 new jobs and that hiring should increase to 23,000 in 1975 although budget cutbacks could reduce that number.

Women and . minorities will continue to have an employment edge in white collar ,jobs, ac­ cording to a 1974-75 · national recruiting trend survey by Michigan State University's

placement services. The MSU survey found that the 220 businesses, industries, govern­ mental agencies and educational institutions which responded will emphasize hiring of women and minorities .

Elementary and secondary level school teachers should again be feeling the job pinch . Last September 221,000 beginning teachers were competing for only I I 8,000 jobs, according to the New York Times.

Nevertheless in the depths_of gloomy predictions, an occasional encouraging report is hear. After conducting a nationwide study of white-collar job opportunities, Frank S. Endicott concluded that "it's much too soon for college sen_iors to assume that there are not going to be any jobs for them when they graduate."

The placement director at the University of Wisconsin agreed with the Endicott report. "There are a lot more jobs than students think ," he said . "A good per­ centage of new graduates, especially liberal arts graduates, get depressed by what they read and hear, so they just back off . . .and don't even sample the job market. Or they take the first job that comes along and don't push for what they should be looking for."

Despite the fact that those with graduate degrees are among the worst affected group (I 70Jo fewer openings), the job shortage may be driving students into grad schools. Liberal arts graduates have found the need for more training or retraining to prepare for areas in which there may be better employment opportunities in the future.

1c1es, here are ~he results of last week's qu estionnaire with a confidential . report of the task farce mterpretation. All non-relevant answers (i.e. those that don't coincide with our views) have been discarded to better define the impartial viewpoints of this . board.

1. YES. Just read the WCTU brochure (available upon request at Student Personnel Office.

2. Coke has caffeine-just one step to heroin .

3. Yes-What reputation?

4. Get serious-only Twinks get drunk on 3.2, except Wild Bill but he's not really human.

5. 90% of $25 isn't that much anyway.

6. There is no plumbing in men's dorms.

7., ~-• & 9. They're all too lenient and amoral, this task farce and/or suggests a pillory floggings .

10. Let's change to Catholic support-everybody knows they

all drink.

11. High-quality education? Even a drunk can get a degree in ad­ vanced typing and Pinball.

12. No-according .to an ancient Gemite tract found in the Dead Sea (i.e. Otterbein pond) the specific ingredients of b"arley and hops were specifically not kosher and therefore not in the grace of Yahweh. The degradation of those heathen grains carried the stigma.

13. Blood is God's- gift, any dilution, thereof -smacks of Heresy. (Jefferson, you're OK until it hits 50% alcohol-so don't worry).

14. You must answer that yourself-cheer up, 90% of the church leaders will be right there with you, tax shelters and all.

15. The mountain lion and blue whale too. Not to. mention Biagreuis.

16. & 17. Could you live with your conscience? Reece will be here another three years, how could you wish that on anybody?

18. & 19. Check the Board of Health for bulletins on supper.

(Chris checks it for dates.)

20. William Westmoreland was, too. So were the Montagnards.

21. How do you live with yourself anyway? You helped elect Jim Rhodes.

22. Right On, the only good one is a dead one.

23. Otterbein and reality go hand in hand (or is it foot in mouth?

24. Yes, but possibly RPS might start viewing student problems rationally. After al~, Herr Karl did bring (shudders, S-E-X to Otterbein-previously the women were impregnated by reading dirty books and wearing heavy makeup.

25. Task farces are democracy-Zeig Heil!

26. Not in America (sob!).

27. & 28. No answers were received.

We have found the student body too immature to drink. Us administration people are the only ones who can handle it. We are in charge. We don't make mistakes.

We merely meet contingencies.

heavy facts about the subject. Well, here's the real scoop on what goes .on behind closed doors and under satin sheets.

Fact No . 1: SEX IS NOT A NATURAL BODY FUNCTION, LIKE SNEEZING. This is really obvious. When was the last time your roommate went nuts for a sneeze? It's not like eating, either, I eat three times a day.

Fact No. 2: ALL LEFTHANDED PEOPLE ARE HOMOSEXUAL. Fooled you, didn't they, RIGHTIES? Sure, they look normal. Of course . true, isn't . they'll deny it. But 1Cs

Fact No. 3: DANDELION FLUFF CAN ENLARGE MEN'S BODIES WHERE IT COUNTS. In small amounts, eaten dry, dandelion seed fluff ·can change you overnight from a derringer to a howitzer. Don't overdo it, though. My Uncle Samuel ate a front yard's worth and has had to Jet down the hem of his overalls six times.

Fact No. 4: SPANISH FLY REALLY, REALLY WORKS! Actually, any common housefly will do. The procedure is simple.

Merely drop the dead fly in the victim's drink and call attention · to it. If you can persuade your partner to dow~ it, you probably or her to ·do can persuade him •••••• -• •••••••••

anything you like.

Fact No. 5: "FUNNY IDEAS" AREN'T ALL THAT HUMOROUS. Most guys who have "funny ideas" about a girl will not laugh very hard when turned down.

Fact No. 6: WHAT THEY SAY GOES ON AT THE THETA NU HOUSE REALLY DOES GO ON. If you walk past very slowly after midnight on Tuesdays, you can· hear them.

Fact No. 7: MOST MEN HA VE NO SEX DRIVE. In fact, what many men have instead is a powerful drive to be made an idiot of. So, girls, when you make your man feel like a two-penny turd, you are probably getting him off in the best way.

Fact No. 8: GAME SHOW EMCEES KNOW SOMETHING WE DON'T. In truth, they have discovered a profound new way of enjoying sex that we normal folk don't know, and they won't tell us. Don't you ever wonder why they are always smiling?

Fact No. 9: MEN AREN'T ALWAYS "JUST AFTER A PIECE OF ASS". Sometimes we like milkshakes.

Fact No. 10: I was going to tell you an amazing discovery I made about the most fantastic method of sex ever, but, on second thought, I think I'll leave it out. If you want to know, and you are single, female, over 15 (!) and of any nationality but Belgian, send me your name and phone number in the Campus mail, and I'll personally see to it that you find out.

I-IALL IN THE EAM ILY

by Susan Hall

As Rosemary's Baby

Last night went to see "Scapin." I was sick; it was the first time I had been out of bed all day. So I wore a cynical sneer on my germy little face as I settled painfully in the balcony, armed with pen and notebook and trying not to cough. I was prepared to

criticize.

I can't. The show is marvelous.

I first fell in love with Scapino's hat and from then on l was lost. It is beyond question one of the finest productions overall that I have ever seen in this theatre.

Jim West as Scapino turns in the best characterization of a long career, hitherto distinguished by his frequent appearnces as the bad guy dressed in black (Lion In

Winter, Kiss Me Kate, Dracula].

His best moment is a scene with John Cain in a sack; the com­ bination of Cain, West, and sack is so hysterical, perhaps Cain should be kept in a sack more often.

Cain plays one of the fathers; he is fascinatingly contrasted by the other father, Jerry Confer.

Confer, who makes his first appearance on the Cowan Hall stage since his return from Actors Theatre of Louisville, is so in­ timidating a father even in the balcony that 1 must pity the people who have front row seats.

In the first place, the man is huge.

Secondly, he has a voice like thunder. And further he has as an actor a directness of purpose which makes his character ab­ solutely frightening.

His wimpy son is played by freshman David Weller, who distinguishes himself mainly by tripping over his sword (all the swords were designed and built by actor Confer-they're in­ teresting). Weller has a mid-

western twang which annoyed me, but he does a fair job with the part.

The other son, Jamie St. Clair, has a tendency to talk fast and his words all run together sometimes.

There are only three women in the play, a maid (Pam Hill who cries beautifully), an Otterdolly (Sue Kocks), and a gypsy girl (Nancy Shelton). Both Shelton, also a freshman, and Kocks are marvelously suited to their roles, the especially Kocks as featherhead.

As the servant Sylvester, Gian Morelli has his best scene early in the first act being beat up by Confer and making goo-goo eyes with West. After that. however, both his part anci his enthusiasm dwindle away. His scene with the sword (you'll know it when you see it) is full of muddled thought processes and unclear speech.

Just for the record Michael Macleese has a bit a5 a servant which will convulse Sa~urday night's audience. I didn't care for it, but SaturJt: night audiences love to laugl<IJI his show will play Friday and like dynamJte ~aturday nights.

Most of the credit for the production goes to two people who will not be seen onstage, director Pat Ryan and playwright Moliere. Ms. Ryan has been very faithful to the original concept of the play and the result is a walking, talking cartoon. Moliere would have loved it. It is difficult to remember that he wrote the play 300 years ago and it isn't even one of his best-known.

If you've got the winter tenn blahs, this show can knock 'em right out of you. It won't do so much for the flu, but it will distract you from coughing.

Last year, Otterbein lost in the regular season clash 66-58, but then the Otters came back in the OAC tournament for a victory in a 57-56 "Barnburner." Then in 1973, Bob Deckard, who was a ~ophomore at the time, put through the winning goal from half-court as the buzzer sounded .

But, alas, this year one of these great traditions will end, if the Capital Administration can help

Tennis-new coach, new season I

Yes, . there will ~e , an in Tennis Team this year.

Otter be . ne interested , tryouts will for an Yo . March 1st. The season starts begID APril Znd at Ohio Wesleyan.

The newlycselected coach, Norm Chaney, a professor of English and Philosophy here ar the 'Bein, is very enthused about the opportunity 'h e has been in g1•ven to. start a tennis .tradition • collegiate competition at Otterbein. , He replaced Frank Dustman from last year as head coach.

Coach Chaney has some very impressive credentials in tennis and many years of experience. He started playing tennis at the age of 12, and played on the team in high school. He continued to play quite often while attending Yale. He still plays very consistently and even plays indoors during the winter. The last few summers, he has been teaching lessons for the Westerville Recreation Depart­ megt and also plays in a league here in Westerville.

Coach Chaney has a very in­ teresting philosophy concerning the game, or perhaps better ex­ pressed as, the "art" of tennis.

He likes to compare a singles tennis match with the sport of dueling of past centuries. He thinks that this is one reason why tennis is becoming so popular. It is a gentlemanly way for two competitors to tear each other to pieces, only in tennis, they both come out alive. (Although some consider this a matter of opinion after an extra-long match).

Psychology is also considered a vital factor in tennis by th.e new head tennis coach. Although some actions are not considered very sportsmanlike, breaking the opponent's concentration can bring on victory many times. One minor volley or serve at any point in a match can tear the game wide open.

When asked about the chances for a better season this year, Coach Chaney commented, "We couldn't go anywhere but up, they lost every match last year." As far as conditioning is concerned,

Coach Chaney feels that it is vital that the players are in good shape for competition, but he feels that working on the courts will be his major concern. He says ·that running and other activities for conditioning are good, but he will leave that up to the individual. He plans on spending a lot of time practicing serves, overhead volleys and volleying at the net.

One might say he will be, more or less, a fundamentals coach.

One thing different that Coach Chaney wants to achieve this year, is competition among this, team's members. He feels that the high spirit of competing starts in­ ternally on a team. There will be many scrimmages so that every player gets a chance to jump into the lineup. Concerning the doubles teams, Coach Chaney stated that he would like to keep each doubles team as a team all year. That is, two men will become teammates and hopefully remain so throughout the season.

It is Coach Chaney's opinion that doubles partners learn to identify each others' weaknesses and strengths and can play better when they are familiar with each others' actions and movements.

The only major problem right now seems to be the budget.

Coach Chaney says he hasn't heard anything about it, but he feels that the team will need enough good tennis balls f(!r practices and matches as well as new nets for the varsity courts.

Again, tryouts start March 1st, and anyone interested is welcome to join the team. This season's schedule is tentatively as follows: April 2 OWV here- 3:30 April 5 Mt. Union here-I :00 April 9 at Kenyo April 12 at Heidelberg April 16 at Capital - 3:30 April 19.. at Marietta - I :00 April 23 ONV here - 3:30 April 26 Muskingum here 1:00 April 30 at Muskingum May 3 at B-W May 6 Capital here - 3 :30 May9-10 OacatWooster.

Otterbein women lose in overtime The Otterbein women cagers played an exciting game, but came up on the short end of a 50-49 score in overtime at Baldwin­ Wallace last Saturday. The game got off to a slow start, but really began to pick up mid-way through the first half.

B-W dominated the boards in the first half, but didn't have much luck converting the rebounds into points as the Otter women picked off their passes for 17 interceptions. The half-time score, despite these turnovers, stood in B-W's favor, 20-15.

Otterbein opened the second half with some experimental offensive and defensive strategies.

Baldwin-Wallace, however, kept the edge on Otterbein by 5 points for most of the gaqie. At one ·point, the difference spread to a 12 point B-W lead. But this was short-termed as the Otters bounded back with fourteen straight points to take the lead.

One experimental defense put on by Otterbein left four players in the key in a zone, while Chris

Hlava guarded B-W's leading scorer and playmaker, Marianne­ Kyake, man-to-man. Kyake had scored 16 points thus far in the game, but was held scoreless for the remiander of the game by this defense.

Pam Pifer, Otterbein's leading_ scorer with 16 points in this game, teamed up with Julie Thurston who had 11 points to bring on the tie at the sound of the buzzer at 42-42. Cathy Smith, Peg Milner, and Carol Geisler helped in this late surge with some impressive rebounding.

The game then extended into overtime. It was tied at 3 different times during the overtime, but B­ W took the victory by converting a bad pass into the winning bucket. The next game will be held in Otterbein's Alumni Gym at 6:30 on Feb. 14.

Sorority volleyball underway Sorority volleyball is well underway this term and is probably the most popular intramural sport of the year. Six sororities are in the tournament, and the teams appear to be very well matched this year. Greenwich has 2-0 record while Talisman and Onyx are right behind at 1-1. A trophy will be awarded to the winning sorority.

Games are played on Thursday

BY Cindy Loudenslager evenings in the Sosh. This is a great chance for the new pl.edges to get acquainted with their new sisters and cheer for their sorority.

Sorority volleyball not only offers exercise and fun but a chance to promote Greek unity among the sororities on campus.

The next night of games is Thursday, February 13. See you then!
