Smucker explains Board action on ·visitation

by Lee Schroeder Visitation is probably the most talked about subject on campus. It has been an issue which in recent months has monopolized campus newspapers and informal discussions as well. However, up to now, it appears questionable as to how fully the student body has actually comprehended the issue at hand. Recently, I had the opportunity of speaking with Bill Smucker (student trustee) on the subject of visitation. 'fhe facts, as he presented them to me, were enlightening and straight forward. It is my sincere hope that the following article will invite serious contemplation on your part concerning visitation at Otterbein. The decision of acceptance or opposition is a matter of the individual-we of the staff merely entreat you, the reader, to weigh the facts surrounding visitation and apply them to your own conclusion.

During the summer, the Board of Trustees. for Otterbein

College met to discuss formally & vote upon the possibility of a limited program of visitation on campus.

Representing the positive arguement for visitation were John Cadella and Keith Shoemaker. The opposition was pursued by Sue Wanzer and Mike Darrell. The details of the meeting were reported to us by Bill · Smucker who has actively participated in the issue for visitation at Otterbein.

According to Smucker many of the problems concerning visitation have arisen from within the administration itself.

He stated that the Student Personel office, for one, is afraid of the disolusionment of the dorm program.

They are concerned as to whether v1s1tation is · going to be a monkey on their back. Smucker ~elieves they are convinced it is, and they don't want any part of it. Furthermore, he implied that this attitude on the part of student personel validated a failure to recognize the need for

more socialization on campus.

Another arguement which arose in opposition to the issue of visitation involved the problem of security. To this, Smucker simply replied, "All we _ have to do is take precautions against it." He suggested the installation of a alarm system on certain doors of the dormatory comperable to the alarm system

Bi 11 Smucker, Student Trustee

on the doors at the library . "All you have to do is go out the wrong door in that place ... " But how much does one of those things cost? "It's a one time investment anyhow-but divided into days of the year, it's pennies, I'm sure. In any case, this would probably be the most efficient way of getting around the security problem."

In discussing the estimate in additional expenditures for the first y·ear of visitation, Dean Oldag predicted that the total would exceed $40,000. Smucker proceeded to describe this particular estimate as "an exercise in-imagination." This price estimate implied that new cost areas and addition desk assistance in the dorms alone will run into the cost of $ I 3,000-$ I 5,500. In addition, an extra $300 would have to be paid to each · counselor to compensate for their increased time and efforts which would be demanded of them as a result of visitation. Another escalated

expense that the college predicts is an additional $8,000--S 12.000 annualy for security purposes.

Even a t first glance, th is particular expense appears totally unreasonable since the $8-$12,000 increase intends to cover only part time wages for a few additional hours during the weekend.

There is also the fear that visitation will impede the succ·ess of the development system which has recently been introduced to Otterbein's dormatories.

Smucker's arguement for this is based on the fact that the developmenta l approach at Muskingum was not hindered as a result of visitation.

The Administration also predicts that visitation will have a "snowball effect." By this it is implied that if students get a little bit of visitation and find they cannot handle it in a mature fashion , the Administration will be "stuck" with uncontrolable visitati0n.

Housing Task Force studies alternative life styles This past week the Tan and Cardinal talked with Otterbein's Vice President · for Academic Affairs, Dr. Roy H. Turley , concerning the visitation legislation which was vetoed by the Board of Trustees this summer.

Turley informed this reporter that, in line with the reccomendations of the Board, a

Task Force · on Long Range Planning for Student Housing has been formed and is in the process of hiring a consultant to reaserch possible housing options which might be implemented at Otterbein. The Task Force, according to Turley, is looking for a ~professional consultant who would be "experienced, open, and imaginative." . Objectivity and the ability to solve problems and communicate were also listed as qualifications for the job.

Otterbein has made application to the Educational Facilities Laboratory in New York, for funding in the amount of $12,550 which would enable the school to undertake a more thorough study of alternative life styles on campus.

The members of the housing task force are: Robert B. Bromeley-Chairman, Dr. Roy Turley- Vice Chairman, Dane VanSant, Edwin · L. Roush, Richard Pettit, Virgil Hinton, William Smucker, Chester L. Addington, Philip E. Barnhart, Miss Pam Pauley.

Thoughout the interview, Dr. Turley expressed a desire to facilitate communications members of the among Otterbein community. To this end, Turley supplied the Tan

and Cardinal with a copy of the recommendation by the Executive Committee to the Board, concerning the visitation proposal. This recommendation is printed here in its entirity.

Recommendation of the Executive Committee to the Board of Trustees of Otterbein College on Bill Number 17, "Proposal for Visitation": l. The Trustees commend the proponents of Bill No. 17 for focusing attention on the needs of students for greater opportunities for social interaction between men an;women and for individual and small group privacy in residenc e hall life.

II. The Trustees do not approve Bi 11 No. I7 for implementation because of the inconclusive evidence of the ability of visitation to achieve stated goals and the inconclusive evidence of its impact on areas vital to sustaining the College and its programs.

III. Otterbein, by not having adopted visitation in the past, is now in a position to exercise significant leadership in residential education. In the light of well known problems connected with visitation, the adoption of visitation without a careful exploration of alternatives be ill advised. would Therefore, the Trustees request that the Chairman of the Board of Trustees appoint a Task Force Committee, chaired by a Trustee and including

representatives of the At Large, Alumni, Church, Student and Faculty Trustees, The Vice President for Student Affairs, the Vice President for Academic Affairs, one student and one faculty member, to study housing patterns at Otterbein and recommend a long-range plan for housing to the Trustees by the June, 1974 meeting, if possible, but no later than the Fall, 1974 annual meeting. The recommendation should be directed to achieving the educational goals of the College as a residential institution, to improving opportunities for social interaction between men and women, to improving opportunities for individual and small group privacy and to providing some optional living patterns within the of existing framework facilities and reasonable costs. The Task Force should examine and evaluate: A. A well defined group living experience during the first two college years with emphasis on the group.

B. Various options beyond the two-year pattern including: (1) J uni or - Senior residence halls with varied facilities and different group living experiences than those emphasized during the first two years.

(2) Fraternity and Sorority group living.

(3) Converting

selected existing residence halls to either suite or type facilities single room facilities. ( 4) 0 ff-campus living patterns including approved rooms, apartments and a wider range of choice for students.

C. The relocation of some men into some residence halls now utilized for women and the relocation of the women into some halls now utilized for men in such as manner as to break down the idea of two isolated camps and facilitate social a nd intellectual programming _ and interaction in lounge, and otl1er public areas.

D. T h e continued development of date-study rooms and other residence hall improvements.

E. The positive and negative · impact of visitation within various facilities and residence hall patterns.

F. Other possibilities the Committee may wish to consider.

The Committee is autl10rized to employ professional consulting and other staff assistance • outside the College for the purpose of research and clerical work.

The staff functions should include: A. A study of housing

patterns and programs at' selected institutions similar to Otterbein in size , goals and constituency.

The study should include some institutions with and some without visitation.

B. A survey of the attitudes - toward visitation held by parents of prospective students and current students, alumni and friends of the College.

C. The development of cost estimates ' for various cha11ges and housing patterns under serious consideration by the Committee.

D. Such other studies as the Chairman of the Committee may direct.

E. The preparation of reports as directed by the Chairman.

The Chairman of the Committee shall submit a proposed committee budget to the Budget Control Committee. of the Board of -Trustees at the September tQ7'3 meeting.

Cap-Otter rivalry: will it continue?

In 1927, Otterbein and Capital met in athletic competition for the first time. Through the years, the Cap-Otter rivalry has become a local institution. But now this rivalry may end.

A few students from both schools have, in recent years, reserted to theft of personal property, pliysical violence, and destruction of school property to "boost the spirit" of t:1e rivalry.

What these students have, in fact, done is to threaten this great rivalry by their stupidity, irresponsibility, and immaturity.

While a few pranks of a harmless nature are traditional in many great college rivalries, the organizers and leaders of these pranks must realize that irresponsible actions by students can only be a discredit to their school and to them as individuals.

I urge all leaders of campus organizations in Westerville and Bexley to do all that they can to insure that the violence of the last few years is not repeated th is year.

School spirit is a great thing and, kept within reasonable bounds, can be a healthy and unifying force. So paint signs (on sheets and poster board, please), hang rubber chickens, wave plungers, and scream insults at each other this week-end but PLEASE use common sense so that there will be a Cap-Otter rivalry next year.

Writing Clinic · is ·re.ady To the Editor: While talking to your reporter, I may have inadvertently created some misconception about faculty response. Slightly over half of the faculty members have ·returned a questionnaire sent out the first week of classes, requesting information about papers required for courses, standards applied to papers, and

writing problems most often encountered. (Only the Women' s · P.E., the Home Economics, and the Life and Earth Sciences Departments, at this date, have failed to respond at all; seven departments-Aero space, Chemistry, Economics, Education, Foreign Languages, Phy sics, Religion and Philosophy, and Sociology and Psychology-made a 100% or nearly · I OQllo response.) Given the state of chaos that prevails <luring the first two weeks of a term combined with what seems

I

a natural hum an aversion to _questionnaires, this percentage of return is pretty good.

Of the faculty returning the questionnaire, many praised the Writing Clinic as meeting a definite need on campus, and several have made suggestions or promised some of their time to assisting the Clinic. I'm even told that a few professors have mentioned the Clinic so frequently in class that their students assume we must be overwhelmed with visitors.

Well, we aren't overwhelmed-not yet anyway-but we wouldn't mind it much if we were. So , the invitation is open: T-3, 9 a.m.'-3 p.m. Monday-Friday ; student assistants Doug Yeakel and ~ill Smucker around, corner them for a little advice. Ok?

Visitation ,.

Continued from 1

This is untrue as it explicitly states in Bill No. 1 that at any time, visitation is musused by the student b,ody, it can be revoked. "It's only a one chance thing."

Further delay in reaching an agreement upon the issue of visitation has been attributed to the silent pressure placed upon the Board of Trustees by members of the alumni. During my interview with Smucker, he indicated that the mere mention of visitation will cause the college a great deal of financial loss from contributors. Of course, I've heard more than one professor say that "good friends of the college are good friends of the college." If they are going to give money to the college, they must trust the Board of Trustees and the president, that whatever decisions made will reflect their best interests as well as those of the student body, itself."

They also mentioned that visitation should cause no jeopardy to Otterbein's enrollment as it had caused none to Muskingum's, whose student body greatly resembles that of Otterbein. It was also stated that visitation would cause betterment of dorm situations and hopefully encourage students

The Otter gate Hearing

Students Direct "M ur.ders" and "Love" \

_,

Last night I had a dream.

First I dreamed I was sitting in the football stadium in the driving rain. The score was tied at 14-14 and the crowd, what there was of it, was going wild.

"No-no-no-nobody messes with the Otter team! No-no-no­ nobody messes with the Otter team!" But suddenly the whole team turned their backs on the field, stared with mournfol eyes up into the stands, and chorused accusingly, "Nobody but Sue Hall."

I started to say, "Who, me?" when suddenly I was sitting in a courtroom, watching witness after witness take the stand.

"She makes fun of us. She's mean. She won't talk to us. She makes us feel bad. She made it rain. She ruined the kickoff. She hurt' our feelings."

"Enough", said the Coach-I mean, Judge, pounding his gym shoe-I mean, gavel. "Gentlemen of the jury, retire to the huddle and make your decision.''

The quarterback rose. "No need to huddle. We know what the verdict is. Guilty." · The spectators murmured: "Guilty! Guilty! Guilty! Go, team, o!"

"You may pronounce the sentence, men," ordered the Judge.

They rose in unison, placed their helmets over their hearts, and intoned, "Susan Hall, take the lap!"

The spectators gasped. "Not the lap!"

The team repeated, "The lap."

"Wait!" I cried, stumbling to my feet. "Can't I speak in my own defense?"

There was an awful silence.

The team murmured. The spectators murmured. Then the murmers grew . to roars. "No-no-no-nobody messes with the Otter team!"

"But I don't want to mess with the team! I just want a chance to explain!"

Silence again. The team went into a huddle. Finally in the fourth quarter, they came out of it and the quarterback pronounced, "You have successfully intercepted the pass.

You may take the stand."

I staggered to the front of the room, accepted the football and someone handed me, repeated the oath, "I swear to tell the truth, the whole truth,

Cast Named For Otterbein's ''M!tfsummer Night's Dream'' Three Otterbein College actors and one actress will assume double roles for the Otterbein College Theatre production of "A Midsummer Night's Dream," opening in Cowan Hall on Oct. JO and playing through the 13th.

Popular actor Richard Mill er, familiar to Otterbein audiences for his work in the Otterbein Summer Theatre as well as several major roles last season, will play Theseus, the Duke and Oberon, the fairy king.

Beth Machlan will be Hippolyta and Titania; Jon Morelli will play Philostrate and the effervescent Puck; and Robert Pettigrew will be Egeus and Peter Quince.

Dr. Charles W. Dodrill, directing the Otterbein College Theatre production of the Shakespearian classic comedy, explains that the dual roles are appropriate to his concept of the play, for he sees the fairy sequences as dreams of the main ploy players. In the triple plot, royal lovers who are about to be married, Theseus, the Duke of Athens and Hippolyta, Queen of the Amazons are to be entertained by a guild of laborers in celebration of their wedding. The laborers, known as

people in a different way) act sometimes as though they were touched with a capricous insanity, a playful and vigorous irrationality. That is what happens to our lovers in "A Midsummer Night's Dream." 'We are awake and in love!' they tell

Otterbein opens its theatre season with "A Midsummer Night's Dream" on Oct. 10, 11, 12 and 13. the "rude mechanicaE\" offer an unconventional play and the lovers dream a fairy sequence. In the Otterbein production, the royal duke and his bride are also the fairy queen and king Oberon and Titania.

regarded bassist in jazz today .

Carter is a consummate artist, playing with such taste, fechnique, and melodic inventiveness that in his hands a clumsey hulk like the double bass becomes an exciting solo instrument. Having played at the double bass for a couple months , yours truely could only observe dumbfoundedly the ease and grace with which Carter performed .

Roland Hanna not only composed some fine material for the gro.up but was an excellent pianist. His ability to manipulate melody, rhythm, and tempo to vary mood during his solos was nothing short of amazing.

The evening was not without flaws, however. The solo work of Frank Wess on flute and tenor saxaphone often seemed uninspired and it was unfortunate that he · was so effective at conveying his lack of emotion to the audience. If Ben Riley had a flaw on drums, it was that he was so tasteful that he became boring on more than one occasion. He lacks the "kick" of an Elvin Jones or Buddy Rich and often the group suffered because of it.

As with any program of primarily improvisatory music, some moments were stronger than others. The New York Jazz ' Qaurtet was · never perfect, but always excellent. As was stated previously, what the NYJQ did was make music, and when one can perform on that level, there is no need for an eight-ring entertainment spectacular. The music stands by itself.

-ROTC Stays At Otterbein- If. • •

by Chris Warthen

Is ·Otterbein's R.O.T.C. program being discontinued or not? -This seems to be a legitimate question at Otterbein, as many varied answers can be found. To clarify the matter, yes, the R6TC program was cancelled last spring, effective within one year. {1974) No new cadets were to be permitted to join and only those cadets who were then juniors were to complete ROTC's program on Otterbein's campus. It was also planned that those cadets who had been granted a four-year scholarship would commute to a nearby college or university that had ROTC in the cirriculum; for example, Capital or Ohio State.

This was to be done so the cadets would be able to complete R.O. T.C. course requirements as set by the U.S. Air Force.

When the word came to the Otterbein detachment early last spring, as a result of a Nixon plan to rid the economy of government programs that weren't working, it was a total surprise to the detachment's Professor of Aerospace Studies, Lt. Col. Lowell Socolosfky. The colonel heard the word himself for the first time on the 11 o'clock news.

Shortly after that, in a cloud of uncertainty, "fur be.gan to fly" in Washington D.C. Several other small college detachments across the country had been dealt the same blow without a word of warning from anyone.

After much activity in Washington supporting the small-college · ROTC program, Otterbein, along with many other smaller colleges, was given another chance. Contrary to popular opinion, the reason Denison University's ROTC program was cancelled was because the president of Denison

Riding Club This year I would like to get an active riding club formed lwltich would include activities Lmch as training feeding, and !management clinics, riding at ~ocal stables, and possibly a drill team if there is sufficient interest. There will be sign-up sheets posted around the campus whenever a riding outing is planned. Watch for these. Also I will put up sheets for those interested in joining the riding duh. If there are any questions or if you want to talk to me about the club call me, Charlene Miller, at 882-9573 or drop by the Onyx house.

asked Washington that it be done.

When the ROTC cadets were faced with the uncertainty of the program continuing, many who had previously intended to complete the cirriculum, dropped out."Zero Draft" also made the AFROTC's opportunities look less attractive.

As it stands now, the Reserve Officers' Training Corps is

guaranteed on Otterbein's campus for at least two more years ( counting the present) Whether it will continue after that depends on several things: According to the laws that govern the porportion of graduating ROTC cadets compared to the total student population, Otterbein should be producing at least 15 newly commissioned Second-

Leiutenants into the U.S. Air Force. Last year there were ten.

The 1974 class numbers seven.

I The prospects for 1975 are no better.

Presently, there are nearly twenty freshmen enrolled in AFROTC. If the graduating number of Air Force officers can , be brought to 15 within the forseable future, then R.O.T.C. will stay on Otterbein's campus.

If not, the Reserve Officers' Training Corps at Otterbein will soon be a thing of the past.

Common Courses explore environment

by Phyllis Zajac

The Common Course Committee at Otterbein under the direction of Dr. William Hamilton is just beginning its general review of the entire Common Course Program.

Keeping in mind that the courses are designed to "explore the environment which conditions each society and person," the committee is working in behalf of students to choose topics and methods to enhance their educational goals.

The major change in the Common Courses- that currently affects upperclassmen is the timing change.

Previously, courses were assignee! to class levels, as Religion 41 was taken during a student's senior year.

Presently, the courses are divided into divisions : lower division courses to be tal<en during the Freshman and Sophomore years, and upper · division courses to be taken during the Junior and Senior years. This system provides more freedom in scheduling the courses within each division.

A major change affecting Freshmen is now in the experimental stage, that is the Freshman Seminar.

Ninety Freshmen in six sections of fifteen each are currently enrollee! in seminars conducted by : Dr. Bailey, Mr. Carr, Mr. Chamberlain, Mr. Chaney, Rev. Clark, and Mr. Germanson. The role of the experiment is to see if the Common courses and

Heidel~erg Wins, ' But Otters Are For Real .

Heidelberg's Student Princes, paced by the running of gruising fullback Bob Hunt, defeated Otterbein's vastly improved Cardinals 21-14, last Saturday night before _an "all wet" crowd of about 3000. The win kept Heidelberg undefeated at two to nothing while Otters dropped to one to one.

It looked like the Otters of r old early in the first quarter as Heidelberg took the opening kick and marched 68 yards in 7 plays to take a 7-0 lead. But before the night was over, the Cards proved to this writer that last week's 30-8 victory over Kenyon was no fluke. A 61 yard scoring pass from Jim Bentadelli to Leif Petterson at 5: 08 of the fourth quarter get the Otters even at 14-14 with Heidelberg, a team that defeated them 69-13 a year ago. On the ensuing kick-off, Heidelberg returned the ball to their own 45 yard line.

The Princes took advantage of the excellent field position and

moved 55 yards in six plays to secure the victory, the final yard coming · on Hunt's one yard plunge.

Otterbein won the statistical battle in total offensive yardage 327-289. Hunt let all rushers with I 44 yards in 35 carries, followed by teammate Mel Tate with 95 yards in 19 cracks. Steve Schnarr led Otter rushers with 78 yards in 19 carries; Jim Bentadelli quarterback completed eleven of six teen passes for I 53 yards and one touchdown.

A significant statistic for Otterbein occured in the turnover department-they lost only one fumble and suffered no interceptions for the second straight week.

Tomorrow, Capital visits the "friendly" confines of Otterbein's campus. With a rivalry such as this, anything could happen, but look for the 'Bein to avenge last seasons 16-0 loss. Prediction: Otterbein 27, Capital 13.

Cap-Otter rivalry: a nice thing to keep Tomorrow, the Crusaders of Capital University will invade Memorial Stadium to renew a rivalry which began in 1927, Since that time, Capital leads the series 25-20-1 and the Otters have not defeated the "Plumbers" since 1963.

As often happens in rivalries such as this, the fans &ometimes try to settle the question of victory themselves instead of 1eavin it up to the players. lri the last few years, actions of "over-zealous" fans and students from both schools have threatened to put a total end to the rivalry, not oi:i.Iy in football, but in all sports. Coach Agler has expressed hope that the crowd will try to "cool it" at tomorrow's game in order that the rivalry will continue in future years. Spirit is a great thing, but, like everything else, it has its limits.

Brett looks at OC football race Heidelberg and Muskingum College took Ohi'J Conference Divisional honors last season. Heidelberg won the Red Division ( I 1-0-0) while Muskingum (5-4) won the Blue.

This season could be a repeat-but with a little bit of luck changes might be seen in shades of Tan and Cardinal.

Heidelberg, who owns a last-minute 21-14 victory over the Otters, is far and away the best team in the Reel Division.

Quarterback Jim Ruth (first in total offense-1972) and fullback Bob Hunt (98 yds. per game-1972) should continue to make the Student Princes offense potent. Five other 1972 AU-Ohio Conference first team performers, including linebacker Gary McKillip, tight end Mike Mullins and defensive end Tom Coffman are more reasons why the Princes plan a return trip to the Alonzo Stagg Bowl in 1973.

The Wittenberg Tigers will take a big step this season in trying to regain their reputation as a small college power. Only 5-4 a year ago, the talented Tigers return eight starters to the offense, including last autumn's top three receivers: Ed Edwards, Lowell Harper and J olm

Kingsboro. Pass defense looks to be another Tiger strong point with Randy DeMont (six interceptions-1972) leading the assault.

Wittenberg should improve to 7-2.

Baldwin-Wallace is next in line. Coach Lee Tressel's forces return 31 lettermen, and 11 starters from last year's 7-2 squad. The Yellow Jackets will be experienced offensively with last year's leading rushers Jeff Johnson, Rick Radigan, and Reggie Kelley returning to the backfielrl. The Jackets will finish 6-3.

Mount Union, Capital and Wooster will round out the I 973 Red Division finishing with 5-4, 3-6, and 3-6 respectively.

The Blue Division should be quite interesting mainly because the Otterbein Fighting Cardinals should be in the thick of it.

Overall the Red Division is much better, but Muskingum and Otterbein will make up for it especially when thay tangle at Muskingum on Saturday afternoon Oct. 20.

Al Christoper has 37 lettermen returning from his 1972 Champs, which includes 18 starters. Last years signal caller Ben Chapman will get his offense moving early this season.

Jim Rockwell who last year ran for seven yards a carry will lead the Muskie offense to the goali~e many times this fall. All Ohio Conference -defensive ei1cl Ken Allison will help to make the Muskie defense tough to crack, especially on the ground.

Otterbein is playing its best football in four years, which isn't saying much 3-6, 3-6, and 2- 7). This year the Otters are for real and the most important thing is they want to win and they are playing like a TEAM ( only one turnover in two games). Jim Bontadelli is a good experienced quarterback with guard Doug Fields and Tackle Mike Shannon giving him good protection. To take even more pressure off Bontadelli, Coach Agler sends in the plays through his tight ends Dan Fagan and Ed Hartung.

Defensively the Fighting Cardinals are much improved senior linebackers Bill Spooner and Robin Rushton famming up the middle. During summer camp this reporter picked Otterbein to finish 1973 at 6-3, but after seeing them play twice I strongly believe. they can go 7-2 or even 8-1 depending on how Agler's gang decides to treat the Muskies on October 20. Denison, Marietta and Ohio Wesleyan will provide the rest of the Blue Division competition. As I look to the stars I see final 1973 records of 4-5, 4-5 and 2-7 shining through.

Otterbein battles arch rival Capital this Saturday night at Otterbein College Memorial Stadium. Completely different from last year's "team" the Otters should triumph by two touchdowns. If you can't stand large crowds, all the action will be accounted for on WOBN, 91.5 FM. Pre-game show kicks off at 7: 15 p.m.

Jonda, Club, Kings score intramural victories

by Donald Caldwell

J onda pulled out their first win of the season by defeating Pi Sig 14-0 on Sept. 20. That same day Club won their first by beating Zeta 12-0. Kings got off to a fine start by defeating Sphinx 14-8. On Sept. 24 Sanders-Scott took their first game against Davis Hall by a score of 6-0. In the second game it was Garst Hall over King Hall by a score of 8-6. · Tuesday's games were on the poor side for two of the fraternities on campus. Jonda started out looking good on a pass from T.J. Crutcher to Jean Paul early in teh game. This pass went for a touchdown but Jonda failed to convert the extra points. The game went scoreless after this play until there were just 4 plays left in the game. At this point the Sanders-Scott quarterback, Bob Evans threw a long pass to Jensen for a touchdown. The conversion was good and Sanders-Scott took the lead. The final score was 8-6 in favor of Sanders-Scott. King Hall gave Sphinx their second loss in

the second upset of the day.

King scored on a pass in the first series of play and Sphinx was· never able to recover from the shock. King then scored on a screen pass that went for 50 vds.

The conversion was made leaving teh score at I 4-0 at the end of the half. At the end of the game the King offense caught the Sphinx defense asleep. With two plays left the King quarterback fell on the snap to prevent the defense from scoring on an interception. The Sphinxmen expecting the same play on the last play relaxed the defense.

This was when a pass scored for King leaving the final score 20-0 at the end of the game. Pi Sig won by a socre of 6-0 over Davis Hall.

Tennis schedules are out and all teams should be aware of when to play. Matches are held behind the campus center at night. Sepctators are welcome.

The cross country meet will be held on Oct. 23 at 4: I 5. Rosters should be turned in by Oct. 18.

Cross-country team is optimistic

by Jim Brown

Otterbein's cross country team, (5-1), last year was fourth in the OAC. This } ear's hopes are even bigger despite losses of Bob Long and Charlie Ernst from graduation and Allen Brown transfering to Ohio State.

Running even harder than last year's winners is the new tactic of Coach Lehman. Prime example of this is captain senior Jack Lintz, clocking 1100 miles just this summer in training!

Four outstanding letterman return also, Ray Ehlers, John Barger, Dave Brown, and Jamie Brunk. The depth of the team is made of an excellent crop of freshman, Lehamn noted that three of these are ones to watch Jeff Hunt, Tom Baktel, and Mike Chadwell.

Lehman, in his fourth year of coaching, guiding his teams to tenth, seventh, and fourth places in the last three conference meets, is optimistic again and is pushing even harder than last year.

This Saturday at Ohio

Wesleyan the OAC Relays will be the first test of the 'Bein's cross country squad. Then the team opens its dual meets at Sharon Woods against Muskingum on Oct. 2. This Tuesday's meet is at 4 p.m. so be there. Everyone loves a winner and that is just what we have here in C.C.
