Editor's Notebool<
A few words on student participation in campus activities and organizations are appropriate at this time of the year.
But, first this brief message to brighten the spirits: Spring Break is less than a month away.
Senate Elections and You
As reported elsewhere in this issue, the time is drawing near for students to make a committment to get involved in the policies of this college through senate elections.
All students should be concerned with the future of the college as it attempts to meet changing social conditions and a worsening economic situation,
Otterbein was a pioneer in the early 70's for student government opportunities. In recent years, however, the trademark for the senate has been inactivity and inaction.
If you are considering running for any of the senate positions you should keep a few things in mind: How much time will you be able to devote to the senate, or more importantly,
If students take an interest in senate, legislation changes can be made for the good of the college. Unfortunately, many students see the senate positions as just another title to put on their resumes.
If You've Got The Time
Speaking of school involvement - job applications are being accepted for positions on the TAN and CARDINAL. Full details are elsewhere on this page,
Just think, one of you may be ever so lucky to spend an early Wednesday morning writing editorials. That brings up a point about applying for the paid jobs.
As with being elected to the senate, being·a T & Ceditorial staff member involves a great deal of hours, Progress in the journalism program should find a natural improvement in the paper. As I see it, next year is the critical year in getting people on campus to take the journalism program seriously.
If you are willing to make sacrifices in your time schedule, then apply. Otherwise, you will be wasting the selection committee's time.
Let There Be Praise
Finally, it_ is easier to find faults than it is to hand out praise. During the fall, the T & Cran a comment about the hours (or, lack of them) for the Library on the Veteran's Day holiday.
The Library staff should be commended for having the facilities open from 2-10 p.m. on President's Day. Judging from the number of students in the Library during the afternoon the move was a good one.

The Publication Board has announced that it is now receiving applications for salaried positions on The Tan & Cardinal for 198182. The salaried positions will be editor ($900.00 per year), managing editor ($600.00 per year), photography editor ($300.00 per year), business manager ($300.00 per year) and advertising manager (10% of advertising sales).

ADP Graduate Re.turns As Admissions Assistant
By Dave Eisnaugle
"It's nice to be back home," confessed Monique Clark, who just recently replaced Robin Butz as Admissions Assistant for Otterbein College.
With spending her childhood in Westerville and attending Otterbein, it was only fitting for Monique Clark to return to her hometown.
After enrolling at Otterbein in 1968, Monique left during her sophomore year to perform secretaria I work in a dentist office.
In 1969, she married a cinematographer from Ohio State University and moved to- Williamsburg, Virginia. After a year, the Clarks' decided to move back to Ohio because Virginia "was too slow paced" for the active life Monique wanted to live.
Returning to Ohio, Monique began working for the Ohio School Board Association as a secretary. Rapidly tiring of the thought of being a secretary all her life, slie decided to return to college for her degree.
The Adult Degree Program at Otterbein was just in the beginning stages at that time, under the directions of James Dickey. The program gave adults an opportunity to further their education.
Monique enrolled in the. first class of the ADP students, while keeping her full-time job. Completing ADP in 1978, she left Otterbein with degrees in Business Admini stration and French.
Commenting on the ADP, Monique could not praise the program enough. "It's the best thing that has ever happened to
Committee Recommends Altering Visitation Rules
By Sue Shipe
Otterbein's Visitation Committee will be sending a proposal to Campus Services & Regulations, on March 11, regarding some changes to the current visitation policy, according to Committee member Mary Pembroke.
Since fall term. this sub-committee of Campus Services and Regulations has surveyed student opinion about the current visitation rules and investigated pos: sible areas for after-midnight social gatherings. The use of lounges and social rooms have been considered.
Besides compiling student survey results, the Committee has also contacted other area schools to discuss their visitation policies and problems.
Following the presentation of ideas to Campus Services and Regulations, the Committee's fin_al proposal will be sent to the Senate for approval, according to Ms. Pembroke.
She encourages anyone interested in discussing Otterbein's visitation rules to contact her or other members of the Committee.
Other committee members include: Science professor Philip Barnhart and students Chris Cover, Chris EIiertson and Kelly Fishbaugh.

me," exclaimed Monique. "James Dickey should be highly praised for all the support he has given me and the work he put into the program."
After graduation, she was eager to seek new employment. With the job market being in a state of depression, Monique had to swallow her pride and take a secretarial position at the Limited clothing store.
Working at the Limited for 18 months, she saw that ·an opening was available in the Admissio,ns Office at Otterbein. Applying for the position,. Monique expressed a great enthusiastic attitude towards returning to her alma mater, which aided in her employment.

CaQer Watches Season From Sidelines
By Dan Hughes
"It was the third day of practice. jumped to catch a pass and landed wrong. It just snapped."
That's how senior Mike Cochran descri�ed the circumstances surrounding the knee injury that ended his basketball season in October
The six-foot-four forward from London, Ohio, had been projected as one of the mainstays of the Cardinal varsity going into the season before he tore the anterior ligament in his left knee during practice. Cochran, who had been elected co-captain of the team along with senior Steve Johnston, shot a blistering 57 percent from the field in 1980 and would have provided the team with muchneeded rebounding power.
Cochran said he has had numerous minor ankle injuries, but had never had a serious knee injury until now. "My first thought was, 'Oh my God, not the knee.' I just felt something snap. Someone told me that he'd heard it snap, so it must be a ligament. I thought, 'I couldn't have done that.'e"
"There was pain for a minute, then no feeling at all until I moved ,t," said Cochran. "Then the pain was intense."
Cochran was treated at Riverside _Hospital, where doctors inserted a small metal pin in the knee to take the place of the torn ligament.
"Before the operation, the doctors didn't think it was that bad," recalled Cochran. "But during the
operation they found out it was worse than expected." It wasn't until later that he learned the full extent of his injury. "They said 'no way· this year, but they put me on a six month-to-a-year program that will get me back to normal."
Cochran, who is normally active even outside the gym,'said the period following the surgery was very tedious. "For the first eight weeks I was in a cast and didn't do anything. I wasn't even allowed to walk. I just sat around eating and watching T.V."
He is now working mainly on his own, to rehabilitate the knee by lifting. weights and riding a bike. "It's pretty much an individual thing. You have to do it."
Although he is excited about the team's success this year, Cochran also feels a personal loss because he can't take part in it. ''I'm torn two ways. I'm really excited about the team, but then I'm also disappointed that I can't play."
"It could have been worse," he said. "It would have been much more disappointing to get hurt in the middle of the season, to have been a bigger part of it. "
For nQw, Cochran doesn't know if he'll return to use his final year of eligibility next season. "It's pretty much up in air. The knee is going to have to work out," saidCochran, who feels that his return hinges on his ability to regain his quickness. "If I can't run, I'm not going to go out and embarrass myself."

15 Years Ago in the T & C. The Otterbein Wrestlers won their first match of the season beating Mount Union, 24-13. The meet was highlighted by pins coming from Ken Wion, 137 lb. class, and Larry Estes, Heavy
The meet should be a good indicator as to how the Cardinals will do in the conference championship, according to head coach Porter Miller. Most of the participants in Friday's meet will run in the events they will run in the championship, March 6 and 7.
"We're reaching the heart of the season," Miller said. He feels that having a scored meet will add an incentive for the team, in addition to producing .some 'pressure situations.
"It will be our first real test of the year," said Miller.
The meet will be important for two other reasons. First. Wesleyan should provide stiff competition. Last week, the Bishops went down to the last event, the mile relay, to defeat a good Mount Union squad.
Secondly, the meet will be at the Branch Rickey Center in Delaware. It is also the sight of the conference meet. Miller said running on Wesleyan's 220-yard track instead of Otterbein's one-tenth mile loop will help the runners prepare for the championships.
Otterbein goes into the meet with some good efforts from the Feb. 13 meet at the Rike Center.

Steve Farkas�continued to show improvements in the 60eyard hurdles, according to Miller. Farkas iook second with a time of 7.85 seconds.
In the distance events, freshman Dave Ritter placed second in the 880 with a 2:06.1. The only winner of the night for Otterbein was Mark Burns.
The sophomore from Pittsfield, Penn., won the two-mile in a time of 9:30. He used a strong finish to beat Baldwi n-Wallac e 's Sam Quirarte by two seconds.

By Dave Graham

Reynolds raised his ten year mark to 140 victories against 83 tosses. Ironically, Reynolds eclipsed the record of his f�rmer coach, Curt Tong, who retired with a 139-49 mark.
The B-W win overshadowed Reynolds achievement as the Cardinals avenged an earlier 8883 overtime loss to the Yellow jackets in December's "O" Club Classic.
The Otterbein win left them with a 10-1 · conference record, (tied with Wittenberg), 17-6 overall. Baldwin-Wallace fell to 6-5 in the OAC, 17-5 overall.
The league's two top offenses showed their strengths by running and gunning to a 42-42 deadlock at the half. Neither team could pull away in the opening half, trading baskets most of the way. The Cards did gain an advantage by getting Don Haines, the YellowJackets ·6-foot 5-inch center, tagged with his fourth personal foul just before the end of the half, limiting his playing time for the remainder of the game.
With B-W's center on the bench and other starters in foul trouble, the Cards managed to hold onto a four to eight point buldge through much of the half.
The Yellow-Jackets put on a surge with under 2:00 remaining. forcing three Otterbein turnovers. This proved to be too little too late as senior forward Steve Johnstonput in a layup at the buzzer for the final count.
Johnston led all scorers with 28 points, hitting. 10 of 13 shots from the field. He was 8 for 1 atothe tout line. Junior mno Guanciale added 20 points, all coming in the first half. Sophomore guard Ron Stewart kept his league leading scoring average, (21.9 ppg.), despite a 15 poil)t effort.
Baldwin-Wallace was led by Shelly Waters 24 points. Waters got help from Tony Jackson and Mike Korum, who had 11 and 10 points, respectively.
The Otters were red-hot from the field, making 33 of 59 of their shots for 56%. B-W canned 36 of 70 for 51% from the field.
Once again the foul line provided the winning margin for the· Otters as they sank 20 of 29 shots for 69%. Baldwin-Wallace managed to get to the line only 11 times, hitting 9for 81%.
Each team grabbed 33 rebounds. Johnston 1.ed the Cards with 9. Senior center Tom Dill hauled in 8. Rich C\arbone led the Yellow Jackets, grabbing· 7 missed shots.
Despite losing, B-W turned the ball over only 8 times, compared to 15 for Otterbein.
The- Cardinals host Muskingum this Saturday in the final regutar season contest for both teams. Coach Reynolds says of the crucial ·-OAC auel,. "Muskingum is physically strong despite not being extremely tall ... They are a good shooting team and they handle the bait very well. Muskingum is not prone to mistakes."
