New Sibyl Format Breal<s -Tradition
By Greg Stemm
The 1981 Sibyl yearbook, scheduled for a September 15 distribution date, will have a totally ·new format than the traditional yearbook design.
Joe Shoopman, editor of the yearbook, said the new format will be closer to a magazine rather than a yearbook, with nine separate "stories" representing the nine months of the past school year.
"There will be a section of groups, but most of the book will be the nine sections "Otterbein in September," "Otterbein in October," etc. said Shoopman.
Shoopman went on to say that each section will have a page or two of writ·ing, explaining what went on at the 'Bein that month - from basketball victories to November snowfalls. Shoopman explained that this copy will be followed by several pages ofe pictures taken during that month.e
"It will have the most copy (writtene material) of any Sibyl that I can see,"e said Shoopman.e
The advantages of this new format,
which is entirely Shoopman's own concept, are varied. Shoopman hopes that a break from tradition will help to make the yearbook more exciting. Shoopman also noted that this format will allow for more in-depth coverage of campus events.
For example, Shoopman says th_e winning basketball team will be traced from the time practice started in November to the play-offs which put Otterbein in the running for a national championship.
Shoopman noted that the format style will allow for more. individual shots in the photo sections. Shoopman says that while they are important, group pictures are visually boring.
Several organizations did not receive letters to have their pictures taken last week but Shoopman says that they will be taken soon.
"The organizations that· come to mind are Host and Tour, RA's, Commuters, and some honoraries -l'H be getting a hold of them and setting up a time for pictures," said Shoopman.
Shoopman noted that because of the bad publicity associated with the Continued on page 3

Spring M_usic Fest Features Food, �ive Entertainment
By Cathy Carlisle
The seventh annual Spring Music Festival will take place on Tuesday, May 20, behind the Campus Center. The event, which is being produced by students, begins at 3 p.m. and will feature live entertainment and a picnic dinner provided by the. Campus Center Dining Hall.
The entertainment will be provided by a non-stop sequence of group and solo musicians. Plans have been made to move the event indoors in case of bad weattier, so it cannot be rained out.
Along with the food and music,
best of which will be chosen for the festival. Students will be video taping the. festival for replay on the cable t.v. public access channel.
The program is being sponsored this year by the Campus Programming Board, the Beer an� Wine Shop, Sparks Vending Company, Residence Advisory Council, and Kroger Supermarkets.
The event began in the spring of 1975 when a handful of Engle Hall students used the support of other residents to stage a small concert. The event has grown yearly since th�n. with last year's large attendance being regarded as the best ever by many of PhotobyScottHeffelfinger there will be Cok,e t-shirts for trivia its organizers. contest winners.

Time to Clean Up Act
We feel that the time has come for the administration to take a good look at the Ke Wa Pa Krew system of cleaning the residence halls.
The idea of paying students to clean the residence halls is a good one in theory, but in practice it all too often leaves much to be desired. Too many times Ke Wa Pa workers do not take their jobs seriously enough, and residents are the ones who pay the price of living in less than sparkling clean surroundings.
This is not to say that all Ke Wa Pa wor�ers do a lackluster job-some do a very fine job. However, restrooms can often resemble those found at Truck Stops rather than restrooms where people regularly reside. Hallways can look more like. garbage dumps than hallways.
In our opinion, the administration should carefully examine the job that the Ke Wa Pa Krew is doing and ask themselves: "Would I want to live under such unsanitary conditions?" We believe that the answer would be an unequivocal NO!.
The Ke Wa Pa system c;ould work more efficiently if the workers were better supervised-but that in itself is a fulltime job. The solution seems to be clear-either pay someone to work with the Ke Wa Pa people exclusively or hire a professional cleaning service to keep the residence halls clean.
In the meantime, if you are unhappy with the work that your Ke Wa Pa person is doing, call Dick Frick and let him know about it. After all, for what we students pay to live in college housing, it should not be too much to ask for the residence halls to be kept clean.
Finally, if your Ke Wa Pa worker is doing a good job, tell him or her that you really appreciate it.

THE 10-YEAR PRESIDENCY
President Kerr Discusses Past, Looks to Future
Thomas J. Kerr. IV, became president of Otterbein College at the age of 37 in 1971. He took office during a time of turmoil on college campuses across the country - the Viet Nam war was in full stride and many people were questioning the value of higher education.
Now, in 1981, Kerr will officiallycommemorate a decade as president on July 1. Tan and Cardinal Editor Craig Merz visited with President Kerr to discuss the past decade and the future of Otterbein College.
In the first of a two-part series. Kerr talks of changes in students' attitude, major concerns facing the college and major selling points of Otterbein.
CHANGES IN 10 YEARS
The past 10 years have seen a great deal of changes occur at Otterbein College, Students now use college to find a better future-not as a way out of the war as was the case in the early 70s.
The physical makeup of the campus has changed as well. The Rike Center and Courtright Library were constructed. Gone are old structures like Lambert Hall; Alumni Gym is now the Battelle Fine Arts Center. ·
Throughout this time period President J. Kerr, IV, has kept busy-too busy to notice the time fly by.
It doesn't seem like 10 years. The time has moved quickly. And. it has been an exciting time. I've been busy from a presidential perspective."
He hasn't been too busy, however, to notice the changes in students in the past decade.
"The early 70s were an activist period. The students were politicaily concerned and socially concerned with the broad issues of the time. This was reflected in many ways.
"There was a stronger interest in involvement in government then. It was a higher priority among student thinking."
He says today's students are more "job-oriented."
"They are concerned with their own pursuits rather than broader social issues." He cites the worsening economic times as the main reason for the change.
Otterbein has adjusted its curriculum, according to Kerr. to meet the· changing needs of the students.
The growth of Business Administration. internships and co-ops, equine science and data processing programs are examples of some of the shifts the college has made to help students, Kerr said.
Is Otterbein· still a "liberal arts college" in the non-vocational sense?
"Otterbein has always had a strong liberal arts component but has never seen that as incompatible with a career emphasis. This philosophy goes back to the founding of the college. I did a research paper on the subject. The college has a very consistent pattern. Philosophically it has not changed much, but certainly it has changed to meet student interest and attitudes."
PHYSICAL CHANGES AT OTTERBEIN
The physical changes at Otterbein are what Kerr calls "my major point
of involvement." Though many new buildings have been constructed during his administration he is quick to give credit to others.
"We were completing building programs of the-60s which had capital funds campaigns.
The need for new structures on campus were two-fold. First, modifications on existing structures were put off because of the Depression and World War II. Kerr noted that many of the buildings (McFadden, King Hall and Alumni _Gym) were built in the 1920s.
Second, when Otterbein decided to expand its student population in about 1959, the physical plant had to. be expanded.
Attracting Students:
"We need more contacts with our students and high schools.,,
"It has taken us 20 years to accomplish two goals: update and expand."
"With the Decision For the Arts campaign oui physical plant is essentially completed. The scene shop, which we will break ground for in June, -will probably be the last new structure for 20 years.
"There won't be a pressing need for new facilities. We will still have to upgrade and modernize, but new facilities are not a priority.
FINANCIAL SITUATION IS MAJOR CONCERN
In an interview when he became president, Kerr said the financial situ- ation was a major concern. Is it stille numqer one?e
"It is the major concern. We are in ae more serious period than we were ine then P 971). There has been a significant drop in the number of collegebound students during the 70s. Looking at the demographics, there is ae steep drop in college-age students in ae year or two."e
Kerr says the college must "projecte beyond the campus more than it has"e to stay competitive in the fight fore college-age people.e
"The college has to build bettere bridges to the high schools. We neede more contacts with our students ande high schools."e
He said an illus_tration of positivee steps the college has taken was thee recen·t visit to Otterbein of the Toledoe Youth Orchestra.e
"Athletic events, state tournaments in the Rike Center are importante to the college. As are summer conferences."e
Another method is to have facultye go out and speak. "We are doing a 1.ote of good things at Otterbein College.e We have to have those things knowne to the public."e
"We are well-known in the Columbus and Central Ohio area; we have a lot of contacts. Luckily, Central Ohio happens to be one of only two growing areas in Ohio."
The president said out-of-state recruiting,_because of prohibitive costs factors, is done selectively.
"We look mainly at the high appeal programs - nursing, equine science arid theatre. Our theatre program has
built a national reputation. Recruiting can be very costly out of state so we do it selectively."
RISING COSTS ANOTHER CONCERN
The college is going through a "difficult" time, but Kerr is confident the college can weather the storm.
"The college has always historically been in a financial struggle. Some periods were probably more oi a struggle than others. The Great Depression and World War II - when there were very few males - come to mind."
While inflation is affecting all colleges, Kerr notes a different type of financial challenge for Otterbein.
"The school has never had great financial resources. We've never had a large endowment. Our endowments are not expanding as great as the alumni. There is a smaller endowment per person now than when the school was very small. We have to work on the ·endowment in the 80s. There will probably be a campaign in the middle 80s to expand it, particularly scholarship endowments."
POSITIVE SELLING POINTSFaculty, Location
The current situation is not so bleak, though. Kerr was asked to give some positive selling points about the college.
He answered quickly by naming the faculty as the best asset for Otterbein.
"We have a really strong faculty that is interested in creating the kind of environment where they care about the personal structure of the students. They care about the total educational experience, not just in the classroom but what happens outside class.
"Our faculty has excellent professional qualifications and subject
preparation. They -have a sense of committment and dedication that goes beyond that of many schools. "Another advantage to Otterbein is its location. There are so many things in our programs that we can do in the metropolitan Columbus are.
Strong Points of the College:
"We have a really strong faculty that is intersted in creating the kind of environment where they are aboui the personal structure of students. ,,
"There is the suburban environment and the flavor of a smaller town. The programistic opportunities are excellent."
Kerr cited the working agreements with Grant Hospital and Battelle Memorial Institute as excellent examples of wha.t programs Otterbein can offer because of its locale.
GREATEST ACCOMPLISHMENTS IN PAST 10 YEARS
What were some of President Kerr's greatest accomplishments through the first 10 years_as president?
"Number one would have to be the growing ties between Columbus and the Metro-Columbus area. It's somewhat of an intangible but you can see it in the programs."
Again he cited the work done with Battelle and Grant Hospital. He also gave plaudits to the outgrowth of the theatre program, though he said that was a conscious effort which began before the 70s.
Next week, President Kerr looks to the future and discusses his feelings on the issues of visitation. alcohol and faculty salaries. Pi
11 Hello Dolly'' to :Debut at Otterbein
By Joy Grandstaff
Otterbein College Theater Department is presenting for the first time on campus "Hello, Dolly." This classical musical was one of the longest running shows on Broadway and will be presented in Cowan Hall, Wednesday, May 6, through Saturday, May 9. The presentations will include a special Saturday matinee at 2 p.m.
The plot of "Hello. Dolly" centers around the romances of four major couples. Dolly Levi, the arranger of of these relationships, is one of the two main leads. Played by Jeanine Howe, the character is manipulative, quick-witted, but basically a lonely person looking for a match of her own.
1 n,s cnaracter, played by Richard Buckley, is a demanding business man, seemingly insensitive, but a nice guy underneath it all and also very lonely. Dolly arranges for- Horace to meet several possible mates, bµt none that D,olly really thinks he'll fall for. Dolly anticipates every move, and eventually things turn her way.
The other three couples are Corneliou·s Hackl and Irene Molloy played by Richard Tatgenhorst and Fontaine Follansbee, Barnaby Tucker and Minnie Fay played by A. Victor Jones and Maribeth· Graham, and Ambrose Kemper and Ermengarde, played by Doug Shaffer and Nancy Wacker.
The cast also includes the chorus of 11 men and 12 women. According to Professor Donald Paisley, general

According to Paisley, the show ise highlighted by its great music ande dance. The first act features the fam. ouresong "Elegance," and the seconde act is uplifted by the title song "Hello,e Doliy." Another highlight of the play ise the dancing of the waiters !n the restaurant scene.
The instrumental music is beinge provided by the Otterbein College Or. chestra under the direction of Dr.e Lyle Barkhymer. Craig Johnson, also a music faculty member, is serving as voice director for the play.
The difficult choreography of the play is being done by Dean Joanne Van Sant with the assistance of Catherine Johns,n, wife of Craig Johnson. The
Also involved is Fred J. Thayer, designer for Otterbein College Theatre: He will be in charge of the technical direction and scenery design. According to Paisley,"Hello, Dolly" is one of the most difficult musicals to stage correctly. Backdrops have been rented and sets have been built to accomodate the production.
Paisley said what the cast is working on right now is getting all the specialized areas such as dance, dialogue, and lights to. assemble into one complete show. He said it is frustrating at times, as is common, but the show will be ready for opening night.

Otterbein's track team fielded a healthy squad Saturday in- a quadrangular meet.
The results were very impressive. The Otters soundly beat a good Ohio Wesleyan squad 80-59. Marietta was third with 32; Muskingum scored 26.
The Otters and Bishops have waged some fierce battles in the recent past.
Last year, the Bishops won by onehalf point, During indoor this season, the Cards triumphed in the last event. Consequently, the large margin was especially gratifying to head coach Porter Miller.
"That just shows you what we can do with a healthy squad," Miller said. He was alluding to the fact that in two losses the previous week the Otters performed at less than full-strength because of injuries.
It was nearly complete domination in the running events for the Otters. They won every running event but the 400 meter dash and 1600 meter relay.
The Otters were ahead in the 1600 relay when anchorman Wayne Woodruff pulled up lame with a leg injury. However, he is expected to be ready to run Saturday.
Freshman Sheldon Robinson_ took three firsts for the day. He won the 100, 200 and anchored the 400 relay. He was also second in the long jump.
Both Robinson and another freshman, Paul Hollern, qualified for the Conference in the 200. Robinson clocked a 22.2, Hollem had a 22.4.
Junior Hal Hopkins came close to breaking his•own school record in the steeplechase. In the process of running a 9:26.3, he broke the Memorial Stadium steeple record. He is four and a half seconds from national qualification.
Woodruff won the 400 hurdles with a 54.28. He has been 6elow national qualifying every time he has run the event.
Mark Burns shook off an achilles injury to win the 1500 in 3:59.8. Jeff Kneice was second with a 4:00.47.
The Cards took on'e, three and four
in the vault and discus. Jim Smith went 13'6" while Greg Nakanishi and Jeff Groseclose cleared 13'. In the discus, Jeff Baugh threw for 149'9". Jon Divine was third (138'6") and Steve Conky fourth (137'7"). Steve Farkas continued to show improvement in the 110 high hurdles. He broke 15 seconds for the firs t time enroute to his victory.
Dave Ritter clocked a 1 :58.18 to win the 800 by one-hundredth of a second. In the 5000, Bob Gold, also coming off of leg injuries, recorded his second-best time in the race. He crossed the tape first with a showing of 15:08. Kr-ieice was fourth.
The Cards host five teams Saturday and have a twilight meet with Capital Tuesday.
Otterbein ran into NAIA powerhouse Malone College Tuesday. The result was a 94-68 win over the Otters in a quadrangular meet. Kenyon scored 17 points and Ashland scared no one with their 12 points.
Coach Porter Miller figures Malone is good enough to win the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics national title. NAIA schools, in many instances are just a notch below Division I schools.
Highlights for the Otters included a·clean sweep in the pole vault. Jim Smith won with a personal best of 14'. Ben Richmond was second. Greg Nakanithi and Ty Harris took third and fomt u�s?ecti\,e\'i.
The Otters took two. three and tour in the shot and 100.
Shot putter Jim Puckett was second, followed by Doug Mccombs and Jon Divine. The trio of Sheldon Robinson, Paul Hollern and John Sharpe took two through fourth in the 100. MAKING TRAX: Otterbein hosts Denison, Capital, Wittenberg, Muskingum and Heidelberg Saturday. Miller sees the meet as a final tune-up before the Conference meet May 9.
The high jumpers have left the team to begin their European tour for the summer. Miller said their contributions would be greatly missed.
