Student personiiel offers $30,000 in student iobs

In the 1975-76 school year, the Otterbein student personnel office will be offering nearly $30,000 in student jobs. In addi. tion to the regular employment o f counselors and student head r esidents, it has been announced by Dean for Student Development Karl Oldag, that seven new jobs have been created. Each job will e a r n some student $1,200 over t h e next year. The new employment comes under the heading of custodial services, and in actuality, is a gradual replacement of present custodians with students. Plans for next year call for students­ to be employed in Garst (2), Scott (1), and Mayne (4). The basic responsibilities of these students include dusting of furniture in lounges, vacuum­ ing of carpets, cleaning bath-

rooms, emptying trash, clean­ ing windows, etc. The student will perform the same duties as the present custodians. The students will also be required to keep records of materials used and received from the house­ keeping department. Wages for the jobs are based on the 15 hours-per-week em­ ployment, at an hourly wage of $2.00 an hour, over a period of 30 weeks. The 30 weeks does not include winter or spring break, and students are not re­ quired to work over those per­ iods, except to clean and close down the dorms for break. Eligibility for the custodial positions require a student to either reside in a residence hall or to be a married student. Also, both work-study and non­ work-study students are eligible

to apply. Applications are avail­ able in the student personnel office beginning today. All in­ terested students are encouraged to apply. After all applications are returned, interviews will be arranged between the student and the Dean of Student Development, the assistant dean, and the head resident of the hall where the student would be employed. The student custodian will be hired by student personnel but will be directly answerable to the· head resident of his or her res­ pective residence hall. The ser­ vice department will not be in­ volved in the supervision of the students, though they have offer-· ed to assist in training the stu­ dents and to give suggestions. After selection of the student custodians, a training ·session will be held sometime during spring term. The hired students will be required to attend. Dean Oldag stresses that the student custodian will be bound by some form of contract to ful­ fil their duties. Breech of con-,· tract will result in the firing of any student employee. The employment will be established on a strict employer-employee relationship. The Dean wrote in his pro­ posal to establish the new job, "I have every reason to believe that this program could be suc­ cessful from a housekeeping per­ spective, education from an em­ ployer-employee relations h i p perspective and an economical plus for both students employed and for Otterbein College." · If all goes well with next year's trial program, more student­ custodial jobs will be made avail­ able, possibly totaling 2.4 positions by 1977.

Marty Bookwalter, the technical director for "A Streetcar Named Desire", designs part of the set for the play which opens March 5.

"Streetcar Named Desire''Opens March 5 "Selective realism" is the tone student technical designer Marty Bookwalter has chosen for his "Streetcar Named Desire" set design. The Tennessee Williams' clas­ sic will be presented by Otter­ bein College Theatre March 5-8 in Cowan Hall. Curtain time for all performances is 8:15 p.m. Bookwalter, a senior theater major at the Westerville college, wants "a strong feeling of heat and humidity, a sense that New Orleans is right there, behind this set.'' Although still a student, Book­ walter has designed 27 produc­ tions for high schools, Otter­ bein and community theaters. His other Otterbein work ineludes Children's Theater pro­ ductions of "Story Theater of Haris Christian Anderson" and "Pinocchio", last summer's comedy, "Come Blow Your Horn", and Opera Theater's pro­ duction of "Figaro." He was delighted by Dr. Char­ les Dodrill's choice of this Pulit-. zer Prize winning drama, "be­ cause of the tragic nature of the play, something heavy I could really get into." Fall term, Bookwalter was in Washington, D.C. where he in­ terned in technical theater with Arena Stage. The internship program at Otterbein has sent upper level students into acting,

management and technical as­ signments with regional theaters throughout the eastern United States. Building a 1927 "Chevy" was one of the most interesting pro­ jects he tackled for Arena Stage. The car was used as a standing prop in a revival of "Death of a Salesman." Only four feet by two feet, Bookwalter reproduced the car in exact detail using lumber and fiberglas for mater­ ials. His eleven weeks in Washing­ ton, "a totally tremendous ex­ perience,'' provided professional 1 training in all areas of techni­ cal theater, lighting, carpentry, props and painting. Bookwalter actually began his post-high school work in fine arts at the Dayton Art Institute. Dropping out of school for three years, he became involved in community theater and decided to look for a small college with a strong theater program. He counts his almost-com­ pleted liberal arts degree an asset. "I believe we're the sum total of our experience. If I'm limited to theatrical images, I'm really limited." After June graduation, Book­ walter plans to study in New York City but admits he won't stay in New York. "The oppor­ tunities seem to be much greater in regional theater."

In a time when college costs are rising like a fermentation bubble in a glass of you-know-what, it is good to see that Otter­ bein is expanding its student employment. The more jobs this institution provides for its students, the better able these people will be to survive the yearly inflation of tuition, housing costs, food costs, and general living expenses. Dean Oldag and his staff again deserve praise for creating these new jobs -- but the more the merrier. Where else can students be employed on campus? We've fairly well penetrated most every office and department on campus, and apart from more than our share of nepotism, student employment is tremendous. Yet we still need more, especially when the job market is so tight that you can barely squeeze an application blank out of it. The more jobs, the more students can continue to afford an expensive small college like Otterbein. And this does not mean work-study only. Jobs should be made available to everyone. The middle class student is being screwed to the wall because he doesn't qualify for anything, -- financial aid, work-study jobs and so on. College is fast becoming an institution for the rich and the poor and no one in between. It's time to, as George Jetson says at the end of his re-run re-runs "Help! Stop this crazy thing!" And an answer is more jobs..e.please! C. N.

Otterbein students once again hear T & M Express in the C.P.B. Mini Rug Concert Tuesday, March 4, at 6:30 p.m. in the Campus Center main lounge. In the fall of 1973, Tim York and MichaelHawthorne, both per­ formers and songwriters in their own right, combined their talents and efforts to create a brilliant new musical partnership. The native Texans, recent wanderers to the Ohio country, have put to. gether a sound clearly defined as a synthesis of the essence of folk, country, and rock music. Their original compositions, as­ sembled over years of writing and performing and detailing life's experiences (from "Convict Hill'', recent American Song Fes­ tival finalist, to "Elizabeth" and "My Lady"), blend together to reveal the excitement of T & M Express. T & M Express had their professional debut at Otterbein College in Ohio in April of 1974. A quick trip to Kerrville, Texas garnered Tim and Mike a berth on the 1975 Kerrville Folk Fes­ tival, then back to a summer of weekly appearances in the Columbus, Ohio area. High­ lighting the summer was their opening of Chuck Muer's Engine House 115 and nightly packing the patio of Deibel's; all the while refining the sound and profes­ sional excellence that has become

Chi Rho, Pi Sig trium.phant II quarter fina Is

The Quarterfinal Round of the RPS Whiz Quiz began last Monday with two exciting contests. At 9:00 Chi Rho (wally Gallup, Kurt Helmig, Tom Righter, Joe Subich) outfought the Maranatha Manglers (Jamie Brunk, Chet Cady, Fred . Donelson, Dave Horner) by a score of 375-295. Then at 9:45, Pi Sig (Jeff Ankrom, Mark Grif­ fith, John Reece, Mike Snider) edged the Whiz Kids (Pete Baker, Bob Becker, Dick Byers, Jim Minehart), 210-170. The Mang­ lers and the Whiz Kids are to be commended for their fine team efforts in losing games. An attendance of 65 was noted at the games, which were held at the Main Lounge of the Campus Center. Prof. Phil Hamilton assisted in judging the answers. Prof. James· Recob worked the tape recorder and monitored the electronic buzzer system. Diana Fretz and J. P. Hamilton were

scorekeepers. Pete Bunnell as­ sisted with the slide projector. Highlights of the games in­ clude Jamie Brunk's identifica­ tion of Swiss reformation theolo­ gian Ulrich Zwingli. Dave Horner knew that the Gemini twins of Greek mythology were named Castor and Pollux; he also re­ called that Angel Falls, the high­ est waterfall in the world, is located in Venezuela. The extra­ ordinary team effort of Chi Rho was led by Kurt Helmig, who remembered that the "Benedict Arnold" of World War II was the Norwegian traitor Quisling; he also knew that the Etruscans were the early people who pre­ ceded Rome on the Italian penin­ sula. Tom Righter, a Physics major, correctly identified the astronomical terms parallax and ecliptic. In the second game, Bob Becker recognized a paint­ ing by Thomas Cole, founder of

the Hudson River School. Dick Byers knew what an oxbow lake is. John Reece again carried the bulk of the scoring for Pi Sig. He identified two psycholo­ gists: the Swiss child develop­ ment theorist Jean Piaget and the Jewish humanist Abraham Mas­ low. In addition, Mike Snider re­ called that the Prussian dynasty founded by Frederick I was the Hohenzollern. Next Monday night, the Quar­ terfinals will conclude with Cle­ ments Hall vs. Appenzellern at 9:00 and The Team vs. The Whiz Quiz Morons at 9:45. matches between faculty and staff teams are being planned for the near future. Dean Oldag has in­ dicated his desire of continuing the program in future years here at Otterbein. Electronics genius Ed Smeltz has been contracted to construct an improved buzzer system for succeeding Whiz Quiz seasons.

Washington Semester Diploma? Applications Due The WHY GET A DEGREE? Students interested in applying for the Washington Semester pro­ gram during the Otterbein Fall Term of 1975-75 or 1976-77, should now get in touch with Dr. John Laubach to work out (!lans. The Washington Semester �nds before Christmas, enabling stu­ dents to return to Otterbein for the Winter Term. The progra� which is administered by the American University brings stu­ dents in touch with highly-placed government officials of the exe­ cutive branch, Congress, the Su­ preme Court, lobbies and the Washington press. Each student participates in a seminar for two course credits and under­ takes a research project for one course credit. A fourth course can involve either an elec­ tive from the American Univer­ sity offerings or an internship. In recent years three other Washington Semester options have been added: the Urban Semester, the Foreign Policy Semester, and the International Development Semester. The Urban Semester includes a seminar (two courses of ere, dit) with government officials, lobbies, and political leaders,' especially those related to D.C. affairs. An individual research project offers one course cre­ dit for the study of an urban political problem. The fourth course is to be selected from the elective offerings of the American University. The International Development Semester offers a seminar worth three courses of credit. It in­ volves intensive seminars and conferences with federal officials and with officers of the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, the Inter-American De-

velopment Bank, the Agency for International Development, and the Organization of American States--to mention a few. Rather than the traditional student­ teacher course structure, this seminar operates on the bisis of a "task-oriented group approach to learning." For this program students should have had two courses or more in one of the fields of sociology; economics, and political science. The in­ structional staff and general ap­ proach are multi-disciplinary. In addition to the three-course seminar one additional course is required in the way of an individual research project or an internship. The Foreign Policy Semester, as the Development Semester, is multi-disciplinary. It also offers a three-course seminar. It stresses the mechanisms of foreign policy making, with em phasis on foreign policy issues current during the term. Along with governmental, private, and international agency conferences, this program offers contacts with foreign embassies. The fourth course in this opportunity may be an internship or a research project. The programs are open to majors of all departments. In general Otterbein requires that applicants have an average of fourteen B's or better. One basic course in political science is also required, but for the International Development Semester, two courses in one of the fields of political science, sociol­ ogy, or economics are specified. .For further information consult Dr. Laubach. Dr. Laubach adds that deadline for applications is March 10, 1975.

In light of the fact that a college degree can't insure a graduate a white collar job of his choice, educators have taken another look at the purpose of P.ducation. Many counselors have advised liberal arts majors to take a computer science or accounting course. A University of Michigan survey reported that 35 out of 42 business and industrial companies said they would be more willing to hire liberal arts graduates who had at least some business-related skills. At the Association of American Colleges annual meeting in Washington, DC educators debated whether colleges should adjust their curricula in order to insure employable skills or whether the traditional liberal arts program should hold fast. "If we convinced him (the student) to come to college to get a liberal education and to learn, to think and play with his head, we can graduate him feeifng satisfied," said Arthur Stickgold, assistant professor of sociology at C alifornia State University at Los Angeles. "It is simply false advertising to imply that a BA is a meal ticket-an automatic entry into middle with management unlimited career opportunities." Terrel Bell, US Commissioner of Education, however, felt that the goal of the liberal arts college must change. "Today we in education must recognize that it is our duty to provide our students with s alable skills. To send young men and women into today's world armed only with Aristotle, Freud and Hemingway is like sending a lamb into the lion's den."

Faculty Member Suspended for Breast Feeding A woman farnlty member at a small C alifornia college has been suspended for breast feeding her baby on campus. The furor started last year when Rosanne Holiday began bringing her 2-month-old daughter to <.:ampus while she taught classes at Southwestern College in Chula Vista. She employed students to babysit while she was actually teaching, and between classes she nursed the ,hild in a women's faculty lounge.

Officials objected on the grounds that the college was liable for any accidents that might happen to or be caused by the child while on campus. So Mrs. Holiday took out insurance to eliminate the college's liability, and meanwhile openly told her classes that breast feeding was a beautiful experience. The Board of Trustees then acted to prevent a "decline in school efficiency because secretaries, clerks, and cleaning

women might desert their duties to breast feed their children" if the Holiday precedent was per­ mitted. It passed a regulation banning the presence of faculty children on campus during class hours. Mrs. Holiday was not about to give in, but forced to nurse her child in the rest room of a nearby filling station. She was caught anyway and suspended for violating the new rule. "I thought it was preposterous for me to have to rui:i to a service station to see my child when there were so many unsupervised children of students on campus," Holiday said.

A Lie Ain't A Lie If It's A Law

A new regulation safeguarding criminal records in Mass­ achusetts has come under fire, because it requires public em­ ployees to lie about certain re­ cords held by the state. What's even worse, the required re­ sponse differs, depending on who asks about the records. The regulations were adopted by the Massachusetts Criminal History Systems_ Board in re­ sponse to a 1972 law passed by the Massachusetts legislature re­ stricting public access to cri­ minal records. Individuals who have previously committed a crime but have gone for several years without a con­ viction fall into a special cate­ gory of "inactive felons and mis­ demeanants." If a criminal justice agency inquires about the criminal re-

Gays Edged Out of Frat House Gay may be good in some places, but it's only so-so in the Theta Chi fraternity. Three homosexual members of the fraternity voluntarily moved out of their frat house at Lehigh University, PA last month after they received an alumni request asking them to do so. The alumni made the request becal'· •- they felt it would be in the best interest of the people living in the fraternity, according to Paul Seivert, president of the Theta Chi Alumni Association. According to another alumnus the alumni were afraid that most people at the Lehigh University did not approve of homosexuality and that the fraternity would not be able to get enough pledges to remain financially stable.

cord of a person in the category, the state employee questioned is required to say that the record is "off line" or inaccessible. If a noncriminal agency asks about such records, the employee is required to say that no record exists. The law provides for severe penalties against employees who violate "security mandates" by telling the truth. According to Criminal History spokesman Arnold Rosenfeld, this procedure is not "lying" because employees are following the law. Rosenfeld also says that it is . not unusual for a s�te agency to say there is no record when in fact there could be. Other agencies in the Massachusetts state government "say exactly the same thing," he says.

Video Kings Slapped Anti-Trust Suits Department Justice The refiled antitrust suits against all three television networks in December, alleging that the networks have separately abused their control over prime television time. Specifically, the networks are charged with acth1g to exclude broadcasting from any programming that each network did not at least partially own; to control prices paid by the net­ works for exhibition rights of feature films; and to compel non­ network program suppliers to grant each network financial interest in any program accepted for broadcast.

THEJOYRAG by j ohri Reese Don't know what it was that first attracted me to her--may­ be it was the way she dotted her "I's" with little circles instead of d(?tS. Maybe it was the way she sand along with Joni Mitchell in the car. Maybe it was the way she wiped off her mouth and belched after polishing off a Big King. It was probably the way she would take my hahd and put it on her knee, then she'd move it up slowly--l'm getting ahead of myself. I remember the first time I saw her, asleep in religion class, not snoring too loudly, her brown hair tangled and cascading over her desk like a tangled and cas cading brown waterfall.

The winner of that Capital­ Wittenberg matchup in the South­ ern Divisional final will have the percentages on their side in Saturday's championship game. Teams from the Southern Divi­ sion have won nine of the pre­ vious 15 OAC tournaments. Moreover, teams from the Southern Division won 32 of 47 games with teams of the North­ ern Division this season. In the past six seasons, Southern Divi­ sion teams have posted a 16092 won-loss ledger against their opponents from the North, a per­ centage of .635.

The breakdown by season is as follows: South 32 North 15 1974-75 South 28 North 19 1973-74 South 34 North 16 1972-73 North 14 South 25 1971-72 North 16 South 17 1970-71 North 12 South 24 1969-70 92 160 TOTALS

·Otters lose to Cap in tourn ey action

It was the second meeting in ten days between these two teams and the outcome of the previous game was still fresh in Otter­ bein's mind. The 2,400 people that showed up for the game saw the Otters probably play their best half of ball this year in the first session. Even though the Otters settled for a 38-36 half­ time score (with Cap on top) the Tan and Cardinals controlled most of the first half. The Otters struck first on a foul shot from junior guard Dave Bromley. After a basket by Cap, Bob Deckard reeled off three straight buckets to put the Otters in front by five. Fans who have remembered Deckards heroics over the years against Cap, saw visions of No. 32 doing it again. The Otters worked well as a team as they continued to con-

Mount Union was the only one of the six first round hosts to. lose. The home team posted a 51-30 advantage in conference actio� during the regular season.

could only match Capital bucket for bucket. Then at 9:39 both teams went into a scoring slump. The score stood at 54-50, Capital's advantage. In five times down the floor neither team could score, Otterbein playing fine de­ fensive ball, stealing the ball several times, were unable to score. Finally Capital connect­ ed to increase their lead and to go on to win 74-60. Bob Deckard led the Otters as he hit his seasons average 14 points. Ed Williams chipped in 13, Dave Bromley added nine. The Otters ended the season at 10-11, as they were ousted from tournament play. A disappoint­ ing loss, however, a few bright spots. The Otters can now start to build for the next year.

In the Southern Division, Deni­ son, Wittenberg and Capital square off for another one of their fierce battles. The Crusaders humiliated the defending tournament champions, 53-44, in their season matchup in Spring­ field. The Northern and Southern winners venture to Granville Saturday evening for the Ohio Confer­ ence championship game. Game­ time is 7:30 p.m. Vengence was achieved by two of those remaining _four teams enroute to the final round of play. Oberlin avenged a 73-66 loss to Kenyon suffered only last Tuesday in Saturday's action fn the North. Capital, now 19-5, paid regu­ lar season champ Marietta back for a 71-68 overtime defeat with a 54-46 edging. The Pioneers,

bowing out at 18-3, now nervous­ ly await the at-large bids for the NCAA Di vision III tournament. Marietta has been selected as the site of the Great Lakes Regional where the OAC tournament win­ ner and the champion of the Presidents Athletic Conference will start national tourney play. Wins by Ohio Northern and Wittenberg in Friday's play will set the stage for a rematch of last year's championship game, won by Wittenberg, 62-48. North­ ern was crushed by the 16-7 Tigers, 67-46, two weeks ago. The Polar Bears also dropped a 52-49 overtime decision to Capital in regular season play. Oberlin was beaten by Witten­ berg, 76-69, but topped Capital 72-64, in regular season play this year.

Name of the game is revenge in OAC Revenge has been the name of the game in Ohio Conference tournament play thus far, and the four remaining teams will have the opportunity to gain ven­ gence in the finals this weekend. Oberlin, having avenged its 3-10 conference record in regular season play with two impressive tourney wins, will be seeking revenge against Ohio Northern in the Northern Division title game at Wooster Friday night. The Yeomen, now 12-10 overall, were spanked by the Polar Bears, 71-56, in a January con­ test. Additional vengence can be achieved as it was Ohio North­ ern, currently 13-13, which knocked Oberlin out of last year's Northern recovered tourney. from a i7-point deficit to top Oberlin, 65-54, in the Northern Division final last year.

The overtime play rage, a quite frequent occurance during the regular season, has also been a feature of this year's OAC tour­ nament. Two extra period contests were played in the Northern Division, Kenyon topping Wooster, 77-73, in the opening round, and Ohio Northern edging Heidelberg, 6763, in the second round. Thus far, 15 overtime games have been played in the OAC. Ohio North­ ern's win makes the PolarBears 3-1 in OT play. * * * * * * *

trol the game. The Otter rebounding fore.es were beefed up with the pre­ sence of freshman center, Ed Williams. Williams was instru­ mental on both ends of the court, collecting six rebounds and seven first half points. The majority of of Williams' points came from the successful breaking of a Capi­ tal press. With 8:08 left in the first half the Otters had worked the lead up to eight, 23-15. Then the Capital co-captains, Vic Wolfe and Gene Caslin, started to work, erasing the Otter margin.

OAC TOURNAMENT NOTES Gene Caslin established one new tournament record and help­ ed the Capital team break another mark in the Crusaders' 54-46 win over Marietta last Saturday. Caslin, who was the game's top scorer with 24 points, sank 16 free throws in 16 attempts. The effort netted him records for both foul shots attempted and foul shots made for the era following the 1972-73 season, when the common foul free throw rule went into effect. Only Don Carlos' 18-for-18 effort against Wittenberg in ·1966 tops Caslin's. Capital, which sank 24 and 31 charity tosses, established new modern day team records in both categories.

Otterbein's Women's Basket­ ball team finished off a disap­ pointing season Tuesday night with a 57-31 loss to Denison. Peg Milner was Otterbein's high­ est scorer with 11 points. Al­ though the season was a disappointment since they didn't re­ cord a single victory, there is a very bright spot. The team this year was made up of, un­ believably, eight freshmen and two sophomores. There were no juniors or seniors!
