Pearson resigns during summer

Dr. Douglas Pearson resigned as the 2oth president of Peru State College this summer. The resignation followed nlimerous incidents, over the last year, which tlsted the president's stability.

· After a meeting of the Board of Trustees in June, Pearson asked for a vote of confidence from his faculty and staff members. He said that if the vote showed a lack of support, he would resign. The request for a vote of confidence was Pearson's, not the trustees, however. Had the entire faculty been in Peru, 70 persons would have taken part in the voting. Since it was summer vacation tinie, the vote consisted of 47 persons. After the vote was tallied it was announced· that it went against Pearson, 26-21.

Pearson left on vacation after hearmg the outcome of the vote, He made no statement before.: It was after one and a· half weeks, and much confusion and speculation, that he resigned. Pearson resigned first to Governor Exon, then to the Lincoln star, next to the Omaha World Herald, and finally, of. ficially, to the Board of Trustees.

Pearson, who received a salary of $31,000 a year, said he was considering many other opportunities including chancellor of U.N.0. However,-

Applejack game to highlight weekend

The eighth annual Applejack Festival will be held on Saturday, Sept. 17. This event occurs each year in Nebraska City comcidiiig with the Peru State College football game against Tarkio.

According to Dorothy

Melchert, of the Nebraska City Chamber of Commerce, there are many varied events planned this year. There will be a skateboard contest in the morning from 9 to 11 o'clock. The water barrel fight will begin at 11 o'clock and conclude at I o'clock in·the afternoon. The parade will commence at 2o'clock and following

that a tractor pull will be held starting at 4 o'clock.

The activities will then switch to the Oak Bowl at Peru State ·College where the Bopcats square off against Tarkio College. The game begins at 7:30 in the evening. An after-game dance will follow.

The first Applejack festival

began on Septembe,r 13, 1969, and ·went for thre_e days. According to Ms. Melchert, the Festival was begun. as a promotion for Nebraska. City merchants. It is called. the Applejack Festival because of the many apple orchards that are in and around Nebraska City.

U.N.0. refused to acknowledge that he was under consideration by their committee.

Peru College had been under the direction of Dr. Pearson for four years. During this period of time; enrollment stabilized, the budget doubled,

and the new health-gymnasium bililding was approved by the legislature.

Pearson's resignation date is targeted for Jan. 1, 1978. Though he is no longer around Peru, he is still on the.Peru State payroll.

Lovejoy 'Interim administrator'

William Lovejoy was app6inted as the Interim Administrator of Peru State College by the Board of Trustees, following the resignation of Dr. Douglas Pearson. He will handle the duties of the chief c,,;ecutive officer until a new president is selected, possibly by early October.

Lovejoy holds both a Bachelor of Arts and a Master of Arts degree in English and is nearing

completion on a Ad.D. in Higher Education Administration.

The Dairy Shack was reopened late this summer by Rex Rains, of Peru, It opens at about ten in the morning and stays open until elevenip.m. The menu includes chicken, pizza, shrimp, a Shack buster and a 35c hamburger. Of course it also has an ice cream line, pop, and several different flavors of slush.

These businesses are very important additions to Peru. Perhaps they will encourage more businesses to locate here.

College 'survival workshop' no laughing matter

BOy, I'll tell you some of these classes at Peru are really something! Did you know that for the final in the Survival Preparedness Workshop they run over you with a semi and if you survive then you pass, and if not then, well, 1 guess it doesn't make any difference.

At long last, the Ped hits ink! Welcome back to another year-OfHexcitin' writin'." (?)

It has been interesting around the Peru State campus. Two stories of special importanceapproV'al of.a revised form of the Peru State gym proposal, and the sudden resignation of the Presi(fent of - deserve special comment. with the gymnasium situation,yotrsbOUld know first that it is probably themostimportantthing to happen to the college in

_ a decade. Briefly, the old gym was built in 1903 and is inadequate for. the expanding sports program here (not to meittion. i,ntramurals)

· ·Peru had ·Ileen for two years to gain stateapproval of a bill an0cating funds for a new gym._ The i<fea. was deemed "top priority" over constructiomieeds of any of the state colleges. Last year, it slipped to "number two priority," and was in danger out.

Then, and staff mounted an . effort to publtCize. the need for a gym. It was the first time in a long time people worked toward the same result.

When ,school got out last spring, students still · didn't know what the outcome would be

The outcome was a unanimous (44-0) vote in favor of an amended bill setting aside $2.3 million for the gym. Construction should begin soon, and a target date of December of '78 set.

As I said, it is probably the biggest thing to happen in quite awhile to PSC. So why, you ask, isn't there a news story in the paper about it? I'm sorry you asked. We forgot.

Approval of the proposal was probably the biggest feather President Douglas Pearson put in his cap in his four years of tenure. Only one month later, Pearson was in hot water because of some questionable decisions and actions on his part. The extent and nature of these "decisions and actions" can only be guessed at.

Spirits were high [?] August 31 for the annual "Belle of Brownville Riverboat Cruise," sponsored by Duffy's Inn for Peru State students. The wind and rain did little to.deter these hardy partiers frqm their fun.

PSC a cheaper choice

Peru State _CoUege students have a to be plef!sed _this year about the total costs of their education.

Tiie estimated toW student costs at PSC for Nebraska residents and non-i:esidents are nearly 19 and 7 per cent lower, respectively, than the nati90al average printed in an Press dispatch _ on _ways _to reduce the cost of a college education.

Area commuter students are also saving at PSC. Tuition and fees at PSC for Nebraska residents taking 15 credit hours per semester are $575 per year. The national average is $621. Also mentioned in the article were financial aid programs. At PSC last semester, ap-

proximately 71 per cent of the total student body.received some form of financial assistance. If you would like more information on pSC's financial aid program, contact Donald Miller, director of financial aid, M· · ministration Building, Room 303b.

Summer grads

Pearson never claimed to be loved by all here on campus, and he wasn't. And it is clear that his mistakes were more of a "frequent and small" kind than any one big screw-up.

When Pearson asked for a "vote of confidence" from college personnel, he obviously thought he would get it. He failed, 26-21, but it must be rell\embered that some 20 eligible voters were vacationing or such and did not get to take part You can speculate all you want on how the outcome would have been, but we'll never know.

So let's just forget the whole thing and pretend it didn't happen. Seriously, the incident gained a lot of publicity statewide, and it definitely was a black eye to the college; However, it sounds as if some excellent people are under consideration for the post, aild we will no doubt come out of the ordealin better shape than ever.

'Nuff said. I promise not to be such a windbag next week.

In the dispatch the _College Entl'.ance Examination BQard, a nonprofit organization which provides tests and other for studeQts .and educational institutions, said that the typical student atten!llng a private, four-year college arid living _on campus will spend $4,905 for the 1977-78 academic _year.

This is the 4lst meeting between the two teams, with Peru holding a 24-15-2 edge. Tarkio was victoribus in their opener against Concordia College 28-6.

The Owls were led offensively by Willie Foster with 136 yards rushing. Defensively, linebacker Ben Hensely stood out.

Students, remember, that tomqrrow's football game is not a Peru "home game." The game is played as a fund-raiser, so your ID card. won't get you in free. The cost will be $1.00 with your ID, $2.00 for Adults.

Best of luck to the volleyball team as they open their season tonight at College of St. Mary's. The Bobkittells host Doane and Northwest Missouri next Wednesday at 7:00 p.m.

The volleyball team could easily be the "team to beat" this year with & letter winners returning. As athletic director Jerry Joy said, "the total athletic program is really moving in the right direction."

Freshmen quarterback Neil Laxdal put life into Peru's offense as he made his first appearance as a Bobcat. Laxdal mixed up his plays well until he was faced with a third and 15 situation on Midland's 37-yard line. From there, he spotted Otis Samuel downfield and threw to the senior wide receiver.

restrictions adopted

By Becki Young

Beginning this semester, any student receiving federal financial aid in any form must meet a new set of eligibility requirements.

All types of federal aid included are: BEOG, Work,study, National Direct Student Loan <NDSL), Guaranteed Student Loans, State Student Incentive Grants and any form of tuition waiver scholarship.

A student is not eligible to receive assistance if he is not in "academic good standing" and is not making "satisfactory demic progress" as defined in the Calendar of Events & Policies and Procedures for this year.

According to Don Miller, director of financial aids, t))e policy is: "If a first semester student has a 2.00 to 3.99 GPA, ·he is put on.academic probation and has until the end of the next semester to bring his .GPA up to 4.00 at least, as a 5.00 is required to graduate."

Miller also stated that a student "has to pass 12 or more hours each semester." These cannot include repeat hours, he added.

According to Miller, the new guidelines were set up and approved by both the College Affairs Commission and the Students Affairs Commission.

In July the federal government required.all colleges and universities to set up standards to protect the government from students who drop out of school and fail to repay their loans.

Miller said, "There are a few students at Peru who have abused the privilege of financial help in the past." Last year 71 per cent of the students at PSC were receiving financial aid.

Excellent attendance marked the picnic last weekend at Neal Dining Hall. The event was sponsored by the black student organizations from both Peru and Tarkio, and is held annually during Applejack weekend. [Photo by Tom Thomas]

PSC pass defense tops nationally

Peru State College this week boasts the nation's top defense against the pass after two games.

According to statistics released by the National Association of Intercollegi,ate.Athletics [NAIA], Peru leads all Division II teams with only 16 yards allowed versus both Midland [2-0] and Tarkio [1-1].

The eight yards-per-game average comes against two teams with a basically run-oriented offense, the Wishbone. However, the Peru defense is also doing .well against stopping the running game, yielding only 228 yards-per-game total. The Peru offense· is producing at a 331.5 yards-per-game.clip.

Majors, Peru; and President's Advisory Council members John Sanders, Auburn, and Floyd Vrtiska, Table Rock; had received dossiers on 13 candidates for the presidency about one week before the meeting.

The committee members had been instructed, upon receiving the profiles, to study them and be prepared to comment upon the candidates. The 13 candidates represented the finalists from more than 130 applicants for the job.

The meeting opened with a greeting from the task force chairman, Henry Ley, Wayne. Also attending the meeting was

task force member Muri Mauser, Big Springs, (task force member Ward Reesman, Falls City was absent,) Board president George Rebensdorf, Omaha,. Board secretary Dr. Richard Bringelson, Board administrator and PSC interim administrator William Lovejoy, and Board ex officio member Dr. Anne.Campbell. Campbell is the state commissioner of education.

Ley continued the meeting by asking for comments upon the candidates, but it quickly be· came apparent that each of the review committee members agreed upon one most qualified candidate Although the Board requested that each of the names within the portfolio given the committee members remain confidential, the man receiving the concensus of support is currently an administrator within the Nebraska state college system.

And, it was that qualification, indicating a knowledge of · the workings of the legislature, the Board of Trustees and the needs of education in Nebraska, ·that repeatedly surfaced in his favor during discussion by the committee members.

Sanders appeared to speak for the entire group when he said the man he was looking for should have "a Nebraska background and a Nebraska philosophy of education" in casting his support in the above-referred-to candidate's direction.

Respect; the ability to identify and work with the rural CQrn· munity here, and a wife who could easily integrate into that community, were other factors prominent in the committee's

Bang My Druni

By Kent Propst

Last week's Ped carried a story explaining who the new Ped staff was, and what some of their , qualifications were.

Much to my chagrin, nobody raced up to me last Friday, Ped clutched in hand, and yelled "What about you? What right do you have to boss a bunch of people like that around?" Nobody even noticed, not even my critics.

Well, it's too bad someone didn't ask, so I could have gotten it off my chest. Now you'll all have to listen to it.

Back in 1973, I was hired as a sportswriter for my local newspapet, the Seward Co. Independent. I worked for them two years. My junior year in high school, I was named editor of the school paper, a position I also held for two years.

I was awarded first place by the Nebraska High Sc.hool Press Association (Class B) for editorial writing my senior year (1975).

On August 18, 1975 I was hired as editor of the local Peru Challenge, as probal')ly the youngest managing. editor in the state nothing like beating your own drum). Unfortunately, !didn't last two years.

Last year as a freshman I was assistant editor of the Pedagogian, both semesters.

Aren't you glad you asked?

Unbeknownst to probably the vast majority of us comlll011 students at Peru State,· selection of homecoming candidates took· place earlier this week. From what I understand, there will be candidates from each dorm as well as a commuter. It is extremely disappointing that more people didn't know about it.

A news· story this week tells what the housing ·· figures in each dorm are. It is a safe bet that the queen will be the Morgan Hall representative. It seems she usually is. The Morgan girls stick together; and though it is nice to see a show of organization, it would also be nice to see a little healthy competition.

Prompt Respone Line

Peru Prompt ResPQnse Line (PPRLl will operate again this year, according to Myron Apilado, dean of student development. Students needing help concerning problems on or off camous may call 872-7775.

The Response Line began last year "to help eliminate red tape by going directly to the source,"

said Apilado. Apilado added that "all problems received over the PPRL will be answered within 24 hours."

The answering service allows 30 seconds per call. Apilado said that if 30 seconds is not enough, a person can call again and complete his message.

Reesman: Tuition hike possible

I A member of the Nebraska , State College Board of Trustees said Sunday there is a possibility of an increase in tuition for the state colleges. Ward Reesrhan, Falls City, said last week that

the increase will be one of the items under discussion when the Board meets.

Reesman said the tuition increase is necessary in order to secure higher appropriations for

state colleges in Nebraska's Unicameral. He said that the increased tuition will affect Peru, Wayne, Chadron and Kearney. The board was scheduled Ao meet September 21.

For originally not wanting the job, Mrs Florence Johnson, dorm mother for Nicholas-Pate, has been at her position for a good long

Mrs Johnson and her late husband Harvey were originally led to Peru from Omaha through a blind ad in a newspaper. She said they were a bit skeptical at first about the job as house parents, but finally were persuaded to stay by Dr. Guy R0senberg. Mrs Johnson said of PSC's Director of Placement, "He's just a fantastic man! He's always ready to listen, always caring!"

In her ten year stay, Mrs Johnson, "Mom" to many, has seen quite a few changes at PSC. These include a declining enrollment, open dorms, and student dress.

According to her, students dress has faltered over the years. She would like to see the students pick up an idea that previous was practiced at the college. One night a week the students would dress up (guys in suits, girls in dresses) and meet in the cafeteria for supper.

Mrs Johnson also gave her feelings on why there has been a decline in the college's enrollment.

The first year the Johnsons arrived, there were close to 1,500 students at PSC. Mrs Johnson cited the (!raft as being a major setback along with the closing of certain departments, such as the Home Economics classes.

She felt this reduced the number of girls interested in attending Peru State. Mrs Johnson advocates restoring programs in this field. She also feels there should be more encouragement for students to stay at PSC, especially the freshmen, ''since .they are the future of the col"

The remaining Board members were to have received the packet of candidate dossiers

Friday night so that they migl;t formulate some opinions upon the candidates for yesterday's meeting. They were not to have seen the search committee's recommendation until the Chadron meeting.

Trustees okay

· gym plans

By Pam Hamblin

The Nebraska State College Board of Trustees last week approved sight preparations for the new .athletic facility at Peru State College, decided on a ten per cent ipcrease in tuition for all state colleges, and heard a report from the task force assigned to interview applicants forl1 the Peru State College presidency.

Roger Flanders, director of institutional relations, said sight preparation specifications were. approved for the new gymnasium. The college, as a result of this decision is now authorized to advertise for bids· on a sight preparation, Flanders said.

There will be a tuition increase for all state colleges beginning in the fall of 1978. This will be the first. increase in two or three years. The tuition will be $17 dollars per credit hour for Nebraska residents and $30 for out-of-state students. This will be approximately a ten per cent increase.

The chairman of the PSC presidential search task force, Henry Ley of Wayne, said that they were still talking to prospective candidates and will report to the Board of Trustees "as soon as humanly possible."

Other items discussed included allowing students to have beer in the dormitories of the four state colleges but no action was taken other than to return• the issue to a special committee to consider insurance and liability.

The Board of Trustees will next meet October 28 in Lincoln.

No appointment

By Kent Propst

state college Board of Trustees, the body which governs allfour state-college campuses (sort of like a big "school board") failed to appoint a for Peru State at their September meetmg m Chadron.

It· was a slight surprise. A top candidate was tabbed by Peru State's own task force; how much weight that body carries is hard to tell.

As I understand it, the trustees have a list of four names still under consideration. And though the rumor mill.has latched on to the Peru "choice " the ' Trustees are not as sure. Word has itthat three of the four are the top contenders, as the Trustees see it.

The for the delay in appointment seems to be "purely academic." That is, though the one man .sounds Ji!erfectly suited to the job, two other men have impressive enough credentials that they demand consideration also.

Out of 130 original applicants, the list has been whittled.to three (unofficially-four if you listen to Flanders or anyone else official). It sounds like Peru is going to come out of this thing in better shape than ever. We cast our eyes with patient interest towards the October 28 meeting of the Board of Trustees, to be held in Lincoln.

Sorry, folks, but the Ped will not appear next Friday as is its won't (altogether now - awwwww shucks!). We are on a 10-issue budget, so weeks we have off.

While we're on the subject (a poor transition, I know, but it sounded better than "That reminds me" or "Moving right along" or "Speaking of the Ped" or something stupid like that), I should mention our "Letters to the Editor" department.

· Last week I received an excellent letter from some member of our campus. They raved, they ranted, they hollered. It was great, I loved it.

"Holy Smith-Corona" I thought. "This is just what the Ped needs - CONTROVERSY." Then I .sank back in my throne in horror. The person, or persons, did not sign their name.

It was signed, "Name Withheld for Fear of Life" or something. Our policy is, write what you want, but sign xour name. That doesn't mean your name will appear with the story. We can withhold your name, if you request. But for legal purposes, they must be signed.

Fell offers Mexico art trip

By Becki Young ,

On March 18 while the rest of us are freezing and wishing summer were here again, Peru State art professor Paul Fell and friends will be leaving for sunny Mexico.

If you like Mexican food, fun and prices, you too can go on a nine day tour of Mexico City, Acapulco and Taxco for the low price of $439 per person. This amount includes plane fare both ways, taxes, tips, rooms and some meals.

Meals will be included while in Acapulco as tourist prices at that time of year are very high, according to Fell. He also suggested taking $100 for spending money.

Some of the sights seen will be bullfights, the Pyramids of Teotihuacan, National Museum of Anthropology, cliff divers in Acapulco, a Fiesta Cruise, silver mines and other places too numerous to mention. Fell said there are "many planned activities, but you have the freedom to pick and choose what you are interested in seeing." He added that · "everything is worth seeing."

The group plans to leave Kansas City on Saturday, March 18 and arrive back in K.C. on Sunday, March 26. (Transportation to and from K.C. will be arranged later.) They will spend three nights in Acapulco, .plus four nights in Mexico City, with many of the above mentioned stops in between.

According to Fell, 20 people have inquired so far, but there is no limit on the number of people who can go.

One hour of art credit can be received from the trip.

Students interested in should have their reservations. in to Fell, along' with a $25 deposit, before February 5. Fell added-that some orientation sessions may be planned to help novice travelers with currency and social differences.

The trip is being sponsored by the art department for' students, faculty, friends and alumni. "Mexico is a very colorful and exciting place to visit with many unusual and different works ·of art. Its nearness to us makes it worth seeing," said Fell.

New teachers named

By Mary Kempkes

The opening of the 1977-78 school year has brought with it a new batch of teachers and staff for Peru State College. There are ten n.ewcomers to Peru in various departments.

New faculty and staff include Robert Terry Gilliland, Anthony M. Rizzi, Robert M. Pettit, Susan Ellen Gladstone, David Pippert, Ruthe Lachalt, Nancy Emerson, Shari Hoelker, Richard Muth, and James A. Harney.

Robert Gilliland is an assistant football coach for the Bobcats. He received both his bachelor's and master's degrees at Kearney State1 College with emphasis on Physical Education and History. Gilliland coached at Kearney as a graduate assistant before his move to Peru this fall. He says that he finds the Peru sports program a comparable one to that of 'Kearney's. Gilliland believes that he and his family will take well to the community. "I like the friendly attitude of everyone and their positive outlook."

Miss Shari Hoelker, also in the Physical Education department, earned her bachelor's at Wayne State and her Master's at Northwest Missouri. Before getting her Master's, Miss Hoelker taught junior high and coached high school sports for four years. Miss Hoelker says that her classes are keeping her busy and she expects to be even busier in the spring when she coaches girl's track.

Ms. Nancy Emerson is in charge of the Sociology Department. In fact she is the Sociology department, though she says that Peru hopes to add another sociologist by the end of the year. Ms. Emerson is a graduate of Kansas State College in Pittsburg, Ks., earning both her bachelor's and master's there. Ms. Emerson has had experience in the Peace Corps, colleges, and community colleges. About Peru, Ms. Emerson is quite content. "I'm happy to know that comfortable communities like Peru still exist in the world," she says.

Dr. James A. Harney, Duluth, Minnesota, is the new assistant professor of Speech and Drama. Dr. Harney received his bachelor's at the University of Minnesota and his Master's and doctorate at Northern Illinois University. Dr. Harney has previously been an instructor at Dakota State University and at high schools in the Chicago suburbs. Dr. Harney has plenty to keep him busy this year including the production of "J.B." and "The Boyfriend" with the Peru Players and the management of the campus radio station.

Information on the remainder of the new faculty will be continued in the next issue.

Underclassmen are honored, too

By Sheilla LaMountain

A new attraction has been added for this year's Homecoming Royalty. There will be freshmen, sophomore and junior boy and girl attendants to accompany the king and queen on the ·night of coronation.

Vicki Williams, student programs coordinator, suggested class attendants to the Special Events Committee of the Student Senate. The committee viewed and put the idea to use in hopes that this year and years to come there will be more student interest.

Last year, for the first time in a long time, a Homecoming King was recognized and voted upon.

Coronation will take place Oc-

tober 1 after the halftime band show.

Before the game, winners and candidates for class attendants will be announced. After the halftime show the class attendants and the ·King and Queen candidates will be introduced and presented on the football field.

Last year's reigning royalty, King John Whisler and Queen Sue Henricksen will crown the 1977 Homecoming queen and present the king with an engraved medallion.

Class attendants will be presented with white stem roses and carnations. The queen will be presented with a bouquet of white roses and an ID bracelet and the king awhite carnation.

Thanks

The Ped would like to take time to thank Marlene Joy for her cooperation in this special homecoming issue. Also our thanks to Ken Gress, who usually delivers the Ped from its printing site in Nebraska City, and Joanie Sterner who helped us out twice in a pinch.

Extra special thanks go to Tom Banks. In addition to accepting extra duties in the sports department, Banks took on the job of designing and selling the advertisements which appear this week. Without his support this special issue would not be possible.

Kittens win one, dr,op two

By Darrell Wellman

The Peru State Bobkitten Volleyball team everred their season record at 2-2 with a victory over Midland College at Fremont a week ago. The Kittens won the best out of five sets 15·8, 3-15, 15·12, 10-15 and 15·8. ·

Peru opened play aggressively at the net and employed strong defensive positions. The Warriors dominated the second game with the help of strong spikers. The remaining games were see-saw battles as each team took the offense to the opponent.

After four matches, Da.nelle Warner leads the spiking followed by Julie Brinkman and Diane Armknecht. Brinkman and Arm· knecht are also the leading blockers for the team. Julie Hartipan is the leading setter

followed by Cindy Harmon who is also the leading scorer.

The Peru State Bobkittens opened their 1977 home season September 21 against Doane College and Northwest Missouri State, University by dropping both games.

Peru played Doane first and lost the first set by the score of 15-9. The Kittens had taken a 7-1 lead but were not able to hang on in the stretch and fell behind Q·l in games.

The second set was a long defensive battle with Peru taking a six point lead early in the set. But Doane would not be put away and came oack to one point behind 14-13. Peru held on for the victory and won 15·13 so the series was tied l·L

The Kittens took charge in the third set scoring the first six

points. Doane came back tieing the score at 14-14 and finally on some effective playing.defeated Peru by the Score of 16-14. Doane won the match 2·1.

After a fifteen minute inter· mission Peru and NWMSU took to the playing court for another best out of three games match.

The Kittens must have· been exhausted and disappointed af· ter losing such a hard match' to Doane and never really got on track. They were dumped by NWMSU 15·1, 15-12.

Peru is now l ·2, and after traveling to Midland will host Concordia College and Tarkio College, Tuesday, September 27.

Cindy Harmon was the leading scorer for the Bobkittens with 16 points for othe night. Danelle Warner was the leading spiker with 14 downed spikes.

By Steve Chatelain

A meeting of about 30 fundraisers was held Sunday afternoon, Oct. 2, at the Wheeler Inn in Auburnto ignite a $50,000 fund drive to help finance the Festival .of a Thousand Oaks and the accompanying Festival School of Music next summer.

The fundraisers, members of communities in the six-county target area of the drive, were addressed at the meeting by Festival president Calista Hughes, Humboldt, and several officials involved in the project.

The area included in the drive is made up of Cass, Otoe, Nemaha, Johnson, Richardson and Pawnee counties and extends into the adjacent areas of Iowa, Missouri and Kansas.

Among the officials speaking was Tom Briccetti, the conductor of the Omaha Symphony Orchestra. The Orchestra is joining with Peru State College in sponsoring the Festival, an intensive musical happening officials hope will eventually provide a tremendous cultural resource to the state.

Briccetti outlined the work · that has already been done

The only damage was to the mattress and box springs with a few burns on the and

toward making the festival a reality. He said there will be six weekends of concerts during the Festival which will feature performances by 100 college and high school musicians attending, · 25 to 30 Nebraska Sinfonia players who will reside at the Festival for its duration, and about 15 nationally and internationally prominent concert musicians who will make up part of the Festival School's faculty.

In his comments about the Festival, Briccetti was particularly complimentary about the PSC campus where the event will. be held. He indicated that

the fine physical facilities and the beautiful environment, along with the outstanding faculty he hopes to attract, will allow the infant Festival to compete against more prestigious and established similar events across the country.

Also at the fund raising meeting were Festival chairman Bill Hilyard; treasurer Michael Stewart, the administrative vice-president of PSC; and affiliated college officials Mary Ruth Wilson, director of continuing education; and Roger Flanders, director of institutional relations and development.

'Fine Arts Weekend' at Peru ·State prompts Exon proclamation

Gov. J. James Exon Friday proclaimed Nov. 5 and 6 as "Fine Arts Weekend" in the State of Nebraska in recognition of the Fine Arts Retreat that

PROCLAMATION

WHEREAS, Nebraska has enjoyed a rich cultural tradition. from its earlie8t days of settlement; and

WHEREAS, For more than 110 years, Nebraskans have set aside time from their busy daily lives for participation in and appreciation of the fine arts; and.

WHEREAS, the people of Nebraska have looked with confidence to the State's insµtutions of higher learning for leadership in cultural development· and the fine arts; and

WHEREAS, Nebraska's three major higher education institu, tions in Southeast Nebraska -The University of Nebraska, Peru State College and Southeast Community College-have coordinated their efforts to provide a Fine arts Retreat on the Peru campus featuring State and National leaders in the Fine Arts: '

NOW, THEREFORE, I, J. James Exon, Governor of the State of · Nebraska, DO HEREBY PROCUIM the weekend of November fifth and sixth, 197'7, ·as

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Great Seal of the State of Nebraska to be affixed.

sored by the state's three major public higher education institutions in southeast Nebraska, the University of Nebraska, s·outheast Community College and Peru State College. In his proclamation, Exon cited the leadership role of the state's colleges and university system in cultural affairs state-wide.

Major events during the weekend retreat include a multimedia keynote presentation by Albany, New York, Coordinator of Art Exhibits Leslie Urbach on Saturday morning; a poetry reading that afternoon by wellknown American poet Robert· Bly of Madison, Minnesota; a Saturday evening concert by the Omaha Symphony Orchestra, Thomas Briccetti conducting; and the Nebraska Theatre Caravan's production of the Moliere farce "Scapino" Sunday afternoon.

"Participation and Apprecia· tion" workshops for adults and children are scheduled throughout the weekend. A variety of programs are planned in art, music, theater, film, mime, dance, puppetry, and the creative dimension in worship. complete details of the weekend program are available from the continuing education leaders at the three cooperating institutions: Mary Ruth Wilson at Peru State, Mick Zangari at the University, or Jim Lightbody at the Lincoln office of Southeast Community College

Next Thursday or Friday could turn into a red-letter day in the history of Peru State College. Three issues of some importance will be faced by the State College Board of Trustees.

The Trustees, our (and Kearney and Wayne and Chadron's) . "school board" to put it in simple . terms, are expected to name a new president for

They are also expected to approve final plans for · our. new gymnasium ("Regional Health-Physical ·. Education Center" if you want to get technical).

And finally, they are expected to decide on an important "beer in dormitories" proposal.

The president issue is apparently going to come as little surprise. The Board of Trustees "have their man" if rumor can be believed. All I will say is, he is 'probably' a man with experience in the state college system. If you want more iriformation, please contact just about anybody (else).

The gym plans are another "sure. bet" thing. This step is simply to approve actual specifications . (floor plans) for the structure.

The "beer in dormitories" proposal is likely to · raise some stir, though my sources tell me it has · good chance. The Trustees, again, have already put ·- some thought into the matter, and, who knows? Maybe soon all those folks in Delzell and Motgan won't have to scurry in and out in the wee hours of the night, six-pack bulging from beneath coat, wine shoved deep into purse.

... Actually, most colleges (Peru included) are .· 'pretty liberal about their liquor in the dormitory rules. It is usually a matter of·"you can have it, just don't let me see it or h®r about it."

But it would be nice for the legal aged students to be able to keep a few cool ones in their room, legally. Unless, of course, a bunch of legal aged students decide to have a dorm party at 1:00 a.m. on the night of your big test

The Ped ··will not appear in your favorite newstand next Friday. Our hard-working staff needs a few minutes of rest before a .certain crazed editor begins handing out story assignments like parking tickets again.

Our next issue will appear Nov. 4. Again I would like to remind anyone with a gripe, write us a letter to the editor. We appreciate it, and we hope it helps you get results.

On-the-job training, , off-· campus research and· internships are relatively new, but interesting and successful programs, which combine work experience with school. The four state colleges (Peru, Chadron, Wayne, and Kearney) have many of these programs available, including the State College

Board of Trustees' Internship Program.

This program allows a student to work for one semester in the State College Board Office, at the Capitol in Lincoln, while receiving college credit. The -amount and. type of credit a student receives must be arranged by the college and the

game of 265 and a high series of 631. But, since no bowler can hold the title for both categories, Woods chose to hold the high series title. Her average for the 1977 season was 180.

"I was really happy to win these awards," she said. "It really makes me feel great to be able to participate in a sport I enjoy and win awards at it, too." ·

However these awards are only a few of the many honors Woods has achieved over the years. She has won the "Woman Bowler of the Year for Nebraska" three times th'e "Greater ' Omaha Area Woman Bowler .of the Year" five times in the last six years, and placed third in the All-American Youth Bowling Championship which won her a $1000 scholarship.

She has also earned 147 trophoes, 23 medals and several ribbons and patches during her 9 year career.

Woods said she started bowling at the age of 11, four years after her mother and father, who · were amateur bowlers, retired.

"It really sounds strange that I · never became interested in bowling until my ,mom and dad retired," she said. "I guess they did a good job of not trying to influence me."

Woods now bowls for the Traveling Classic and at Vinton Bowl in Omaha, but says she missei; practicing during the week because of a lack of time and place in Peru.

"My lack of practice does show during games on the weekends but I never seem to find the time between my job, studies, and other activities," she said.

Besides her major in PE, Woods is also President of the Dorm Council of Morgan, Concession Manager of WAA, and Secretary - Treasurer of the Nebraska Junior Leaders. She has also been actively involved in basketball and softball her

first two years and the paper staff last year at PSC.

Bowling is a sport Woods feels she has gained much from and that it has added something extra to her life. •

"Bowling has always been more of a ,)eisure time activity for me," said Woods. "I never feel like I have to be competitive all the time. It's a part of niy life I'll never regret because of the lasting friendships I have made, with not only my teammates but also my competition."

Woods is the daughter of Mrs Lucille Woods of Omaha.

College choir season begins

department the credit is being taken under. ·

The Board Office can be described as a central clearing house for the four state colleges and tM Board of Trustees. It deals with matters such as budget and financing, Board and college policies, legislation and just about anything else which has an effect on the state colleges.

Therefore, students with an sorts of interests and backgrounds can gain experience in their fields during an internship. For instance, political science and history majors would be interested in monitoring the legislature, business and accounting majors can find a wealth of opportunities to study the areas of finance and budget and communications majors have the opportunity to work with public relations.

Because each intern works with Executive Officer of the Board Office Dr. Rich Bringelson to design programs and projects to work on, almost any area of interest can be worked with during an internship. Other valuable experieooes which can be gained from an internship include the chance l'o learn more about the responsibilities of the Board of Trustees, the state colleges and a business office. There is also the opportunity to meet people from Ille fields of education administration, raw, politics, communications, public relations and business.

Application forms and more· information about the program can be found at the office of the campus' Vice-President for Academic Affairs. They are Dr. Larry Tangeman, CSC; Dr. Mar· vin Knittel, KSC; Dr. Clydt Barrett, PSC; and Dr. Eddi€ Elliott, WSC.

to 5 p.m. A concert will be given in the auditoriwn at 7:30.

This is the thirty-third clinic to be held at Peru. The practive was started by the late Victor Jindra in 1957, but since then, Dr. Wilson has taken charge. This is Dr. Wilson's 21st year with the clinic.

21 past presidents reviewed

During Peru State College's no years of existence, twenty; ""1e men have led the school as rCollege President. Much progress was made by each past · ·president, from the first, Mr J. ; M. McKenzie through the reign of Dr. Douglas W. Pearson.

In August of 1867, Professor J. M. McKenzie was hired as President and teacher of Mathematics, Chemistry, Natural Science and Latin. During his stay George Howard and Annie Moorhead were the first to graduate from Peru State Normal School in 1871. McKenzie left his position after being elected State ·Superintendent of Public Instruction. He was succeeded by H. H. Straight. Straight's abilities were not satisfactory to the 'Board and he was replaced by · Dr. A. D. Williams as President and Straight remained as teacher of Natural History.

Dr. Williams as well did not fulfill expectations and served only one year.

In 1872 General T. J. Morgan took ' over the position. As a member of the Senate, Morgan helped to obtain sufficient money to run the school and pass a bill "in the Legislature establishing a building fund to aid in erecting a new school building. This building, Normal Hall, was used for High School and college .classes, the President's Quarters as well as for a Chapel.

Non-credit course in Bible study next week

A non-credit course studying the Biblical "Book: of Revelation" will be offered by the Continuing Education Department at Peru State College Thursday Nov. 10, 1977.

Course instructor is nationally-known Methodist church leader and Biblical scholar Mrs Barbara Cobb. Mrs Cobb, in addition to over 30 years of service to the church, has led two tours of the Holy Lands and is planning another in 1978.

The one-day workshop will begin Thursday morning at 9:30 a.m. and will end at 3 p.m. TuitiOJi cost is. $7, with lunch included. The class will meet in the Fine Arts Auditoriwn.

Among her many activities, Cobb has served for 15 years as a member of the women's planning committee of the Japanese International Christian University; she has been area representative of Nebraska Church Women United, and is the only woman ever to serve on the National Radio committee, which plans the Protestant Radio Hour program aired over 500 stations.

Although General Morgan did a great deal of reorganizing during his two years, he resigned and again a new president had to be found.

From here the Reverend Azel Freeman took over but resigned after serving only six months.

Appointed for less than a one year period was Mr Albert Nickols who was forced to resign due to poor health and Dr. S. R. Thompson took the position but stayed only one year also.

In 1877, Dr. Robert Curry was appointed and with his appointment the scramble for presidents ended. The school continued tp progress under his administration until he. resigned in 1883.

George L. Farnham was then hired.and served until 1893. He began to add buildings as well as a steam heating plant and water system and students had running water for the first time. In 1889 the Legislature appropriated $13,000 for a Library and new heating plant building:

After Farnham's resignation

A. W. Norton was appointed president. Norton was an accomplished musician and spurred an interest in the arts.

Norton served from 1893 to 1896.

Dr. James A. Beattie reigned from 1896 to 1900. Dr. Beattie's abilities were promptly tested when Mount Vernon Hall burned on January 4, 1897. A new dormitory was built after Qr. Beattie secured a $20,000 legislative appropriation. A telephone line from the college to the bank and to the Burlington depot was installed before Peru even had a phone system.

Dr. Beattie resigned and Dr.

W. S. Clark took over responsibilities as president. Being an advocate of physical fitness Dr. Clark led the students with an ax and spade and started work leveling a playing field where the Oak-Bowl now exists. Dr. Clark stayed until 1904 at which time Dr. James W. Crabtree was hired. He arranged with the State University a program by which students could complete two years of post-graduate work and earn a. Bachelor of Education degree. Crabtree also named a professor to head each department relieving the president of many often minor details. During this time the Chapel-Gymnasium and Library were constructed and completed in 1906. Construction was also begun on the Administration building.

In 1910, D. W. Hayes began his eight years as president. Some advances during this time included the completion of the Administration building, construction of a three-story building to be used for most of the classes and the institution of Health services.

Professor E. L. Rouse began his term in 1918 and saw the paving of the streets of Peru. The first Student Council was

organized during this time also.

A. L. Caviness stayed from 1921 to 1923 and saw adoption of a standard four-year college curriculum. A new college auditorium was built and the ChapelGym was remodeled moving the basketball court to the· main floor and building a swimming pool in the basement.

One of the longest presidential terms in Peru's history spanning the Roaring Twenties, the Depression-ridden thirties and the unsettled forties was held by Walter R. Pate from 1923-1946. This span saw the building of Hoyt Hall, Morgan Hall, nature trails and the completion of Delzell Hall in 1939. The athletic field and the Old Science building were both remodeled during this time also.

Dr. William L. Nicholas was appointed president and again the gymnasium was remodeled. Dr. Nicholas' administration ended abruptly on Tuesday, April 25, 1950. Dr. Barney Baker, Psychology professor shot and killed President ·Nicholas and Dr. Paul Maxwell, head of the EducatiQn Department. Baker then returned to his own home and shot and killed himself. The reason is not known for his actions but it is believed that Baker was seeking revenge as he was to be dismissed from his teaching position after twenty years at Peru. It was assumed he resented Dr. Maxwell who had been named as head of the Education Department over Ba· ker.

During this trying period Dr. Wayne O. Reed spent one year as president qild on a confident attituMtirhelp the college stay · · ·· ·

Replacing Reed was Dr. Neal S. Gomon who held the longest term as president of twenty-one years. Dr. Gomon initiated the remodeling of the administration building, the auditorium, the library, the science hall, Morgan hall and the Oak Bowl. He also directed building of the student center, the Centennial complex, Majors hall, the Fine Arts building, and the faculty and student housing. These improvements encouraged a steady rise in the .enrollment. Dr. Gomon suffered a heart attack in May of 1972 and was forced to resign.

Dr. Douglas W. Pearson began his term as president in 1973 and resigned during the summer of 1977. During Pearson's four years enrollment stabilized, the budget doubled and the new health..gymnasiwn building was approved by the legislature, this proving to be one of his biggest achievements and certainly a much needed addition to the campus.

TD. PSC again tried the fake conversion and this time ·it worked as Ken Denning passed to tight end Joe Cluley making the score 2HI.

Groundbreak draws 200

By Beth Propst

Approximately 200 people attended official groundbreaking ceremonies for the new Regional Health and Physical Education Center at Peru State College, Saturday, Nov. 5, according to Roger Flanders, director of institutional relations and development.

The ceremony began with an introduction of speakers and the presentation of a "What's Right with Peru" Award by Steve Lewis to State Senator Douglas Bereuter from the student body. The audience was then invited to 'pull for Peru' by pulling a rope attached to the groundbreaking plow.

Speakers for the ceremony in!!luded State Senator Douglas Bereuter, Utica, who sponsored the bill in the legislature for the facility; Mr Ward Reesman, Nebraska State College Trustee from Falls City; The Rev. Ralph Gray, of the Peru Community Church; Steve Lewis, President of the Student Senate; and William Lovejoy, Interim Administrator at Peru State College.

Other special guests were State Senator Nelson Merz, Dr. Richard Bringelson, executive secretary to the Board; Edith Fenstermacher, Mayor of Nebraska City; and Joseph Masopust, President of the Peru Achievement Foundation.

Dr. Clyde Barrett, vice-president for Academic Affairs announced that Peru has received ten-year accreditation from the National Council on Accreditation of Teacher Education. The NCATE visited the Peru campus on March 21, 22, and 23rd of this year for their evaluation. Dr. Barrett received the results on Friday, October 21. Ten-year accreditation means that the nine person team will not visit Peru again until 1987.

Dr. Barrett says that he is pleased with the results. He says, "I think Peru provides quality education but it is really good when people from other institutions say the same." Barrett also says that it is an assurance to the students that they are getting a quality education toward their teaching degrees. NCATE accreditation is also helpful in widening the market for jobs after graduation.

NCATE has several purposes but is established mainly to provide a national standard for teacher education.

According to Dr. Barrett NCATE was last on the Peru campus in 1967 to clear up some discrepancies discovered during -their evaluation in 1967.

·yell earns national honor

By Steve Chatelain

Peru State College art instructor Paul Fell has

- national recognition recently for an editorial cartoon he created chiding the lackluster 1976 Democratic National convention.

Fell received the National Newspaper Association's annual award for best editorial cartoon from a weekly paper while attending the Association's convention held in Houston last Thursday and Friday.

Fell, who contributes a cartoon to Maverick Media of Syracuse each week, said the cartoon selected by the Association depicted the Democratic donkey in a state of repose - lounging, feet-on-table, in a litter-strewn, but empty convention center. The cartoon was tongue-in-cheek entitled "Excitement '76".

',\'he winning cartoon was one of several by Fell submitted to the contest by Maverick Medial publisher Francis Moul, Syracuse. Maverick Media also publishes the Peru "Challenge."

Fell, a native of Worcester, Mass., earned his bachelor of arts in education from Peru. After a year of teaching away from this area, he returned and accepted a high school art position at _ Auburn high school in 1968. In 1975, he joined his former college art professor, Dr. Leland Sherwood, on the Peru staff. Fell began contributing to the "Challenge" about three years ago. Accompanying Fell to Houston last week was his wife, Arlene, Monl

Tangeman 'A real loss'

By Kent Propst

"For Peru State College a better choice could not have been made; for ,Chadroh State College this is a real'loss." · · ·· ·

While things probably aren't as tragic at CSC as the president Edwin C. Nelson says, his comm.ent in "The Eagle", the stud.ent newspaper at Chadron State, makes us.all the more pleased about the appointment of Dr. Larry Tangeman to the PSC presidency.

By the way, the "Eagle" says that his wife Corrine has been operating a beauty shop in Chadron. But, I wonder, can she direct community theatre?

It was a pretty good weekend .in Peru, just like I said. it would be. You should have stuck around. If people would just listen ;! ·. ·

Of course there was the fine arts weekend. It was quite an outstanding· event culturally, even if the. attendance failed to meet expec.tation&. Tlte ta.le of the fine arts retreat is best told in our pictoralfeature, coordinated and produced by senior Tom Thornas, Ped photography editor. Photographs were also contributed by Mick Osbon, a ·freshman who has · helped on several occasions.. ,

This Thomas kid, I CQuld go on and on about. Or should I say, on and off? Pleasantly aggravating at times, he has had to singlehandedly carry the weight of our photography all semester. He should at least get credit for the goodly amount of time he toils. Now, Tom, about the rest of the time.

What can I say about the football team? They have outscored their opponents 77-20 in the last two games. Saturday they close out their season at Crete against Doane with a chance to become the winningest team at Peru in 16 years. I urge you to make the trip and give them your vocal support- believe it or not, this team is fun to watch!

The groundbreaking ceremony, despite the conspicuous absence of Governor Exon, was another feather in our caps. It was well attended, the plow pulled · easily, and listening to sta!te senator !Douglas Bereuter speak made us feel like people other than southeast Nebraskans.care for the wellbeing of Peru State.

Peru State dreams to become reality

By Becki Young

One year ago the Physical Education and Health Center was a dream. Saturday, Nov. 5th, at ground breaking ceremonies, it started to become a reality.

The new facility will replace the old gym, which has been standing, almost in its original condition, since 1903.

In 1901 then Governor of Nebraska Dietrich vetoed a bill requesting .a new Peru chapelgymnasium. That year com, mericement was held outside in a nearby grove nick-named "Dietrich's Chapel": In 1903. the bill was resubmitted and was approved by new Governor Mickey. It had a small gymnasium in the basement.

on construction. Dr. Stewart indicated that the Board may award a contract for the construction at their next meeting, Thursday, Dec. 1.

Flanders said the only question regarding the building s{iecifications was raised by Board member William E. Colwell, Chadron. Colwell advised the college to investigate fire code laws regarding entrances and exits so that a proper number would be included in the original structure in the event that seating capacity would be expanded from the proposed 2,000 sometime in the future.

In 1922 the chapel-gym was renovated into strictly a gymnasium with a pool. It remained the same until 1948 when it 'was again up-dated and labeled, "the second largest field house in the state, second only to the University."

With the exception of heating and paint, the gym has remained in basically the same condition since, Some of the many features of the new gym will be: seating for 2,ogo people, an indoor track, olympic-size swimming and diving pool, exercise and practice rooms and public restrooms.

Renovation of Major's Hall into the Health Center will begin ·at a later date. Plans riow are to

Bobcat band wins special award .in Omaha

By Beth Propst

The Peru State College· Mar:ching 'Bobcat Band, under the · direction ofDr. David Edris was named "Best Over-All Musical Unit" in the Columbus Day Parade held in Omaha, Oct. 8. According to Dr. Edris, the band had declined ah invitation to attend the parade when no school or public transportation could be provided.

Sponsors of the parade were so disappointed at the decision they offered to provide transportation to Omaha for the band.

Edris said he had reservations about competing against the larger high school bands and was afraid the Bobcats would make a poor showing. However, he was proven wrong even before the parade began.

Directly across from the Bobcats, in the assembly area before

1 the parade, was the Omaha Westside High School Band. Jonnie Herzog, an Omaha Westside Senior,.is also Peru State's baton twirler. Due to this fact there has been some friction between the bands.

As Edris had the band warm up with the school sing. Westside intervened with their school song. When both completed the songs, the BobcatMarching Band broke into their famous band "cheer", taking Westside by surprise and causing them to break into jeers directed at Peru.

Edris was very pleased when no retort from the Bobcats was heard, considering the parade judges were evaluating preparade conduct:"

The band's excellent performance and commendable behavior led to the judges' decision to create a special award, 'The Best Over-All Musical Unit.'

Gal's 19-7

By Tom Banks

The Peru State volleyball team ended their season last Sunday by taking third place in the Nebraska Small College volleyball tournament.

Pat Gilbert's squad finished with a sparkling record of 19-7 and will not lose a player to graduation next year.

DOWN THE ROAD: If Peru State wins their opening game against Bethany College, .their next foe (Friday) could well be ,Hastings College. Hastings was the Nebraska representative to 'the national basketball tournament last year.

Past football victim Culver-Stockton (who lost in Peru two weeks ago 42-14) fell again last week, this time to Central Methodist. Central's quarterback Tom Sniva set a NAJA passing record against the Wildcats, eompleting 24 of 34 for 571 yards.

Tomorrow's Doane-Peru game will be the finale for 11 outstanding seniors. Such familiar names as Gary Rosenbeck, Dale Patton, Bernard Johnson, Paul McCune, Dick Ramsey, Fred Marisett, Joe Cluley, Tim Schaefer, Jeff Pease, Jeff Salberg and Mark Clark will try to make theirlast game the win that makes Peru State's 1977 team the winningest in 16 years.

Coach Marlene Joy's·Bobkitten basketball team will start their season on the road at Iowa Western in Clarinda Nov. 30.

Patton, Johnson key 35-6 romp over Northwestern

By Greg Hahn

Peru State total&i 553 yards

total offense and held Northwestern College of Orange City, Iowa, to one score, giving the 'Cats their fifth victory in nine starts here last Saturday 35·6.

The Bobcats held Northwestern to only 72 yards rushing but gave up 212 yards through the airways.

Meanwhile, Peru was piling up 307 yards on the ground and 187 yards passing for their largest yardage output of the season.

It was the second half that spelled defeat for Northwestern. The 'Cats scored 28 points in the final two frames after clinging on to a 7-6 halftime lead.

Peru got their first touchdown the hard. way on their sixth possession ofthe game by starting deep in their own territory at the five yard line. The drive had started at the twenty, but two unsportsmanlike conduct penalties and a clipping penalty on an. apparent Gary Ro'senbeck touch· down sent the 'Cats back to the five.

With third and nineteen on the eleven, quarterback Neil Laxdal passed to Roosevelt Brown who

was interfered with at the 29 and Peri.I found themselves out of, trouble with a first down and a little more breathing room.

On the next play Laxdlil threw to Rosenbeck on a screen pass and the senior running back picked up 32 yards to the Northwestern 39-yard line. From there, senior fullback Dale Patton and Rosenbeck took turns churning out yardage until Patton scored from the two Dan Todd's kick was good and Peru led 7-0 with 1: 10 left in the half.

It looked like that was the way the half was going to end as senior tackle Tim Schaefer recovered a fumble at the 38 of Northwestern. With only 25 seconds left on the clock, Laxdal tried to pass into field goal range; but his aerial was intercepted by safety Jeff Timmer who ran it back 73 yards for a touchdown. Northwestern's kick was no good and Peru went into the lockeroom leading 7-6.

Peru got its second to1,1chdown with 5: 30 left in the third quarter on a drive that was started after Ken Denning sacked the ballcarrier for a three yard loss on a fourth and one situation from the 32 of Peru.

Starting' from his own 35, Laxdal threw to Roosevelt Brown twice for gains of eight and 35 yards, giving the Bobcats a first down at the 15 of Northwestern. From there Patton gained four up the middle and on the next play Bernard Johnson swept the right end for eleven yards and a score. Todd's kick split the uprights, making it 14-6 Peru.

On the neit series, Northwestern fumbled on a draw play and a host of Bobcats fell on it on the 31 of Northwestern. From there Willie and Bernard Johnson t.ook turns running the ball to the one-yard line and with a fourth and goal, Patton again punched over for the score. Todd added

his third straight extra point and Peru led 21-6.

Midway through the final per· iod, Peru chalked up their next score after defensive .end· Kent Coleman intercepted a North· western pass on the 47-yard line of Northwestern. Laxdal didn't waste any time looking for a score as he threw to Roosevelt Brown on the next play for a touchdown. After Todd's kick the score stood at 28-6 Peru.

Northwestern's next series ended in a punt and Peru began to mount their final scoring drive at their own 32-yard line. After two rushes netted three yards, Willie Johnson exploded for 34

yards for a first down on the 34 o Northwestern. Marvin McGi ran twice putting the ball at t eleven ·yard line. From ther Willie Johnson reached paydi and Todd kicked his extra poin making him 5-5 for the day an the score 35-6.

One .of the big factors in the game was turnovers - Northwestern had three passes interand lost four fumbles, while Peru only had two passes picked off and lost ol)ly one fumble.

Peru will try to up their record to 6-4 as they visit Doane College of Crete next week for the final game of the season.

Twirler bringing talents to school

By Kent Propst

Halftimes at Peru State College home football games will continue to be brightened :.i; majorette Jonnie Herzog, a nationally-acclaimed 17-year-old from Omaha.

Miss Herzog, a 1977 graduate of Westside High School, has announced plans to enroll at Peru State in January. The daughter of Mr and Mrs Donald Herzog, 3412 South 72nd Avenue, won't exactly be a new face at the Bobcat contests, however. She made her first appearance with the Marching Bobcat Band in 1976 at the annual Applejack Bowl game in Nebraska City. It didn't take long for band director Dr. David Edris to .secure her talents for the remainder of the season. She returned this. year for the six-game home campaign.

In 15 years of competition, Jonnie has compiled 1,137 trophies. Probably the inost impressive of these is "America's Most Beautiful Majorette, 1977," an award she won last January in Cleveland, Tennessee.

Unfortunately, the title has restricted Jonnie's twirling activities. Much like "Miss America," she cannot enter competition for one year. It doesn't seem to bother her though; she plans to enter the same contest this January.

·Miss Herzog is the reigning "Miss Majorette of Nebraska," a title she has held for four consecutive years. To win the honor, she had to compete in twirling, formal wear, swimsuit, and talent categories.

She was named "Midwest Grand Champion Twirler, 1976" ·in Kansas City, competing in 13 categories.

Director of Financial

Aid at Peru State Coilege, sotne nationwide changes are in order for those students who wish to be financially independent from their parents and still attend college.

to Miller, "The United States Office of Education has recently changed the definition of an IIidependent Student for the plll'pose of applying for federal funded Student Assistance Programs such as the Basic Educational Opportunity Grant, Supplemental Educational Op· portunity Grant, College Work· Study Program, and National Direct Student Loan."

To be considered an Independent Student, the student previously could not have been claimed as a Federal IIicotne Tax Exemption for the one taxable year prior to applying for financial aid. This has been changed from. one year to two years.

Miller stated, "This means that if the student applying for the. 1978-79 (next year) term wishes to be considered an In-

dependent Student, he or she cannot have been claimed by his or her parents as an income tax exemption for the tax year of 1976 and-Or 1977."

The second change to be made is in regards to the amount of time a student can live with his parents dtn'ing a given year and still be an IIidependent Student. Previously, the student couldn't have lived with his parents for more than two weeks during the calendar year the same year for which aid is being requested, or for the year prior to it. This has been upped to six weeks total for both years.

Miller ftn'ther explained, "If students are applying for assistance for 1978-79, they cannot live with their parents for six weeks dtn'ing 1977 or 1978 and be considered independents." One item not changed is that, to be independent students, he or she cannot receive support in excess of $600 from their mother or father or both dtn'ing the year for which the aid is requested or dlll'ing the previous year. The dates when these new regulations will take ·effect has been assumed by Miller to be July 1, 1979.

;'Financially, the b.usiness was doing fine," Lane said this week.

He said Rains had not contacted him yet, and that he had re-

ceived no actual notice that Rains was giving the business up.

Lane said that several individuals have expressed interest in managing the Dairy Shack, which has gone through a series of managers since first opening in 1974.

Various donations aid PSC

By Kent Propst

Many Peru State College students are being helped to further their education through a number of recent contributions to the college's foundation.

Officials of the Peru Achieve" ment Foundation say these gifts demonstrate a variety of contribution methods.

The college recently received a $10,000 gift from Joy Elmer Morgan of Washington, D.C. Morgan is a 1911 graduate of Peru State. The Pearl Morgan Butler Memorial Scholarship Fund will be used to provide some worthy studept an annual scholarship covering full tuition and fees.

Pearl Morgan Butler was the older sister of Joy Elmer Morgan and encouraged him to attend college in Peru. He received a Distinguished Service to public education award from Peru State in 1961.

Erma and C. C: Choyce of Dunedin, Florida, recently donated JIXJ shares of stock in Thomas Industries to their alma mater's .unrestricted fund. Unrestricted gifts to the Peru Achievement Foundation are used for the !\ational Direct Student Loan program and other necessary college programs and projects.

The Esther Cole Franklin Scholarship has been established

by the late Dr. Franklin's sister, Mrs Saul Kaye of Amarillo, Texas. Dr. Franklin, a 1920 graduate, received the posthumous Distinguished Alumni Award from Peru State during commencement ceremonies last May.

The $300 annual scholarship is based upon a student's need, good character, and scholarship, and the donor prefers that it go to .a student within 300 miles of Peru.

Mr and Mrs Roger Majors of Raytown, Missouri, have made a $25 matching gift donation to Peru State. His employer, the American Hospital Supply poration, matched the 1956 graduate's donation to the unrestricted fund.

The E. C. and M.· M. Beck Memorial Fund received its eighth donation. $2,000, from the estate of late Earl Beck of Waco. The annual scholarship of $100 goes to an English major who also possesses athletic ability.

The laleFrankJ. Eichler left a $1,000 donation lo .the Laura Hendricks Eichler Memorial Fund. The fund gives $50 semester to a stu.dent with financial need.

Darrell C. Railsback, a 1935 Peru State graduate from Phillips, Texas, gave $100 to the Foundation recently. His gift was matched by the Phillips Petroleum Co., his employer. The donation was an unrestricted gift.

As a result of the work of a group of alumni, The Peru Achievement foundation was organized in June of 1955, incorporated as a non-profit corporation for educational and charitable purposes in May of 1961.

Organized for the promotion and support of Peru State College, the Foundation has as its primary purpose "to aid. assist, and promote the educational program. faculty, employees, and and to encourage the attendance of worthy and deserving students, and lo grant scholarship and student loans fo deserving students

This purpose is accomplished through the solicitation and ac· ceptance of "gifts, grants. devises and bequests of real or personal property. or both. and to hold. administer. use and dispose of the same. both princi· pal and income" from alumni ;111<l friends of Peru Stale.

A Thanksgiving Day dinner will be served from 11 :30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 24, in the West Dining Room of the student center.

The dinner will be for Peru State College students who are remaining on campus over the holiday weekend. It is being sponsored by the Faculty W<>men. Students with ID will be admitted free. For further information, contact: Ann Marie Land at 872-6715.

The Pedagogian rounds superintendent wants to help in enrollment battle

By Steve Chatelain

One usually does not think of e superintendent of college · !dings and grounds as being ticularly concernM with the ollment of his institution, but t is not the case with new u State College maintenance pervisor, Marvin Middle. Perhaps prompted by new resident Dr. Larry Tangean's remarks about his hopes improve, or at least stabilize numbers of students attendPSC, Middle outlined his hilosophy: "We «:ustodial and maintenance personnel) want to help all departments reach their ·· mils of improving student serves such as living accommoda·ons and classes by promotg better repair and cleanliss."

Middle has been trying to plement that philosophy since t. 5, when he began work here. He succeeds George Wendel who lias taken work in Omaha.

: Formerly self-employed as the bead of Marv's Home Repair, a that contracted maintenance work for about 100 apartment units in Lincoln, Middle's duties are varied. He supervises about 20 custodians and .maintenance men, manages the ·upkeep and inter-departmental leasing of 10 college-owqed vehi·cles, coordinates the continued beautification of the campus' 80 acres, plans and oversees minor construction projects within the buildings and aids in the production of special programs such as the recent fine arts retreat.

'Cats drop finale

Peru State lost the final game of the season to Doane College, 35-6 at Crete last Saturday. The Bobcats couldn't get their offensive game on track as costly errors put them in poor field position most of lhe first half. Doane came up with the big play · at the right time in the second half to crush any Bobcat comeback hopes.

Bob Knoell of Doane blocked Steve Orhn's punt to set up the first touchdown. Dave Hershey ran it over from the three yard line and Zane Morton kicked the first of his five extra points of the day.

Doane came right back on · their next possession to score again as quarterback Doug Holtmeier plunged over from the one yard line with 5:23 remaining in the first quarter. 1

The Tigers scored their third TD on the first play following Mark Klasek's interception on the Peru 30 yard line as Mike Ulmer dashed thirty yards for the score with 1:36 remaining in the second quarter for <I 21-0 half-time lead.

Peru scored i,n the third quarter on an eighty yard, fifteen play, drive. Neil Laxdal threw the 26 yard scoring pass to Roosevelt Brown. The Dan Todd kick failed.

Ulmer, scored twice more in the third quarter as he had touchdown runs of fifty-six and ten yards for the final score of Doane :is. Peru 6. ·

Middle lauded his subordinates, saying, "All personnelmaintenance and custodialare very consciencious about their duties." He cited the fine arts weekend as an example of their dedication. That project

required overtime on the part of many maintenance men - hours above and beyond their job requirements, he said.

However, many worked over the weekend to help make the program a success - thus put-

ting into practice the new superV·isor's philosophy. "All of them (maintenance men and custodians) have pride in the college and their jobs," Middle emphasized.

Tl)e new supervisor of buildings and grounds is a native of Larchwood, Iowa. He came to Lincoln in 1965, three years out of high school and after a stint in the Air Force, and began working for the city parks and recreation department as a crew foreman.

In 1968 he was hired by Lincoln General Hospital as a maintenance engineer but returned to his hometown area in 1969 after purchasing the Inwood Hard·ware store in Inwood, Iowa.

Middle returned to Lincoln in ·· 1972 to work with City Real Estate as a maintenance repairman, repairing and remodeling city owned buildings. Later came his apartment repair and maintenance service.

Faced. with several job. opportunities after selling his:s·er,vice, he was attracted to Peru by the campus' beauty and the friendliness of the people here. Marvin, his wife, Rita, and their children, Marvin, Jr., 12, and Craig, 9, are currently living in faculty housing.

Members of the Student Affairs Commission include: Dr. Daryl Long, Dr. Richard Gulizia, Nancy Emerson, Paul Reed, Dr. David Edris and Russell Beldin representing the faculty. Don Miller, Dr. Myron Apilado, and Chairman Paui Stubbe represent the administration. Tom Wooten, Wayne Young and Rhonda Crass represent the students. One of their duties, among others, is to act as a review board in cases of student conduct. The Student Affairs Commission meets on the first Wednesday of every month. Stubbe state\! that, "Basically the SAC deals with discipline and scholarships."

It should be noted that Stubbe holds two posts in student governing system. He stated however, that he "was elec.ted to.the (Student Affairs) Commission position as a member of the administration and not as Dean of Student Services.''

In the area of discipline, Stubbe said that if the offense warrents probation, he might deal with the problem himself, "rather than contact the Commission and try to solve it in a "public forum." He added, "If the student does not like the decision, he can then appeal it to the Commission."

If Stubbe, as dean of student services, feels that a student's conduct warrents consideration for suspension, he then presents the case to the SAC. A date for the hearing is set, and at that time the student can plead guilty or not guilty after presenting their case. The board then holds a closed session to consider all evidence and make a decision.

After hearing the SAC decision last week, the suspended stul dents then appealed to the College Affairs Council, which meets on the first and third Thursday of every month. A telephone vote was taken of all CAC members. Stubbe stated that "The board's decision not to hear the appeal was based on the SeeP.2

Expulsion ,

Three faces are missing from Peru State this week (ls a result of a suspension handed down by one·of governing bodies .on campus. _

Three students were allegedly caught vandaliz· ing a vending machine ln Clayburn-Mathews dorm by campus security.· Rather than charging them in county court (which could have led to a criminal ·conviction' fot them), the students admitted their guilt and asked for leniency from the Student Affairs Commission (see the storrX!oncerning the Commission on page 1), which has authority 'to set punishment.

They received no leniency. They were expelled from school until next fall and had to pay for damages to .the vending machine. But one cannot second guess the SAC decision; they obviously felt the punishment fit the crime. ·

Unfortunately, the College Affairs Council decided not to hear the students' appeal. This decision does not reflect favorably on the Council, because a matter of such importance as expulsion should. certainly merit a great deal of consideration.

· After all, the three students 1-0se all fees paid to the college for this semester. Of course, they do not receive any credit hours. And it is a long time until next fall for those students.

The College Affairs Council, by deciding not to hear the appeal due to no new evidence and an admission of guilt by the three, threw the responsiblity back on the shoulders of the SAC. An · issue of this magnitude deserves more considera· tion that perhaps it got, and this responsibility belongs to the College Affairs Council:

ed several times at Peru in past years.

The concert is being sponsored by the special events committee of the Student Senate.

College Affairs. denies hearing

The debate over whether the .students got a "raw deal" or not will never be solved. Both sides of the issue have strong arguments. Hopefully, this type of problem won't plague PSC again, but if it does it should be given the consideration it deserves.

The state college Board of Trustees budgeted $200,000 for PSC to_ conduct the projl!Ct during the year, Jacobsen said. The state legislature will act on that allocation, and the list of priorities presented by Stewart, in the sp,ring. PSC, like. most state institu-

tions, is working on a three-year program to remove barriers from an public buildings in response to LB 309. That bill is an extension of a federal regulatiion, passed in 1973, that says that all handicapped individuals must have equal access to public buildings by 1978, Jacobsen said. In addition to the elevator for either the science or administrative buildings, Jacobsen listed these priorities -

' L A lift from the entry way of the library onto the- main level allowing handicapped students access to all first floor facilities.

2. Ramps bypassing impassable steps into' the administration building, student center, education building and library.

3. Widening of doorways to accommodate wheelchairconfined students

4. Renovating and equipping at least one men's and women's restroom in each building for the use of the handicapped.

Regional minority study program subject of $50,000 grant request

A proposal for an educational program to better prepare regional colleges to receive minority group students was discussed at a public hearing Thursday, Dec. 15 <yesterday) in the Peru State College Fine Arts Auditorium.

The proposal by Dr. Myron Apilado, the college's Dean of Student· Development, requests a $50,000 grant from the Department of Health, Education and Welfare. If funded, the program will be made available for use at · other colleges in Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri and South Dakota.

The program is designed to

increase the awareness level of project participants about ethnic contributions to American society. It is designed for use in teacher education departments.

Three minority groups have been selected for study due to their population in Nebraska: Blacks, Native Americans and Chicanos. Blacks represent 10.5 per cent of Nebraskans, Native Americans four-tenths of one per cent, and three. per cent, Dr. Apilado said.

The program would bring artists, speakers, researchers, and educators to Peru State to present lectures and workShops concerning minority group contributions to American culture.

Annual music scholarship sponsored by alumni

A group of Peru State alumni who are now music educators in Nebraska and southwest Iowa were responsible for the college's first music scholarships,, according to Dr. Gilbert Wilson, director of musical activities at Peru State.

When Ken Carnes and Tom Osborne were attending Peru State in 1969, no special abilities scholarships in music were offered. At that time, Carnes was president of the Peru State chapter of Music Educators National Convention <MENCJ,. the campus music club. ·

Bettendorf, llJ,wa. Osborne has been directing music at Humboldtfollowing his graduation in 1970. Their MENC alumni organization has. been providing a $100 scholarship to worthy Peru State music majors each year since. Members pay a $10 fee which goes toward the scholarship fund, Wilson said.

In recent years the music program hiis rec'eived funds sufficient to offer several special abilities scholarships, which cover full or partial tuition costs. The MENC alumni scholarship is given each year following an audition. _ Wilson said that an audition date of April 30, 1978, has been set.

At this time each semester, most Ped editors are writing their fond farewells. It is a time for reflection, modesty, and sobriety. However, I'll save that spiel till later; I'll be joining you again next semester for 10 more issures.

I would like to take .this time to reflect back on this semester and give credit where credit is due. The 'new improved' Ped actually began last spring under the guidance of Steve Chatelain. He restored the element of respectability to the campus newspaper, and he graciously continued those efforts this semester.

Perhaps the brightest surprise has been the beginning journalists. Their response has been the reason the. Ped has contained more news of actual campus happenings. If you feel that the Ped has been getting better, take a look in the little box -00 the bottom: right hand corner of this page and ' discover the reason why.

The input of faculty, staff and especially students is necessary so that we, the journalists, can report what you want to read. If you know of someone who has done something extraordinary, or are particularly upset about something, or whatever, mention it to someone from the Ped. We appreciate it.

Athletic Director Jerry Joy was commenting upon sportsmanship the other day. We both agree - the fans at Peru State are Number One.

Joy is extremely proud of the high level -0f good sportsmanship at Peru State. He says he has received praise from several basketball officials also. He pointed to the Kearney State game (Dec. 5) as a superb example of how students can maintain that high level of good sportsmanship while still supporting the team.

· And Peru people really do support the exciting men's basketball team. The game at Tarkio last Saturday was another example. There were approximately as many Peru fans as Tarkio boosters. And when it came to shouting, there was no contest.

Perhaps the best part was at the end of the game. With the high-scoring Bobcats safely on their way to their third 100-point game of the season, the fans began to chant "Applejack, Applejack" at the Tarkio supporters, in reference to the annual football battle between Peru and Tarkio. It had to bring a smile to Coach Joy.

Busy Hazen is Trustee rep

The following article was con. · tributed to the Ped by Lori Potter, an intern to the Board of Trustees from Kearney State College. Ms. Potter says "It is important that students know who their ·Student Representative is and what she can do for their college."

By Lori Potter

Eldonna Hazen is not one of those people who has a lot of idle time, or who wastes time. In fact, you would think that being a member of the Peru State band, choir, swing choir, stage band, woodwind choir, Kappa Delta Pi and the Teacher Education Committee and serving as President of the Peru chapter of MENC (Music Educators National Conference), arid as a Senator-at-large on the Student Senate, is enough to keep anyone totally occupied.

However, Eldonna still finds time for one more activity, serving as the PSC's student representative on the State College Board of Trustees. She was appointed to the position by Gov. James Exon in May and attended her first Board Meeting in June. "The Student Senate. President sent in three names to the State College Board Office which then sent these names to the Governor," she said. ·

Eldonna said that, in general, the Board of Trustees is responsible for seeing that the colleges are run well and that all students are receiving the education they need. "The student representatives are non-voting Board members," she said, "so our main responsibility is to let the Board members, who make the decis· ions, know how students feel about those decisions."

"One thing which continues to show improvement is student input. The use of student representatives on the Board is only in its sec'ond year and toward the end of last year, we started noticing more student· concern about what the Board does. Student input also increased when the proposed beer policy changes were introduced," Eldonna said.

"Although the proposed beer policy change has been an issue which the student representatives have been especially concerned with, each issue needs equal consideration," Eldonna said. As a member of the Personnel and Policies Subcommittee, she is also involved in matters such as vacations, leaves, and salaries.

Eldonna listed the proposed beer policy change, the tuition hike for next year, the allocation of money for renovation and building on the campuses (such as Peru's Health and Physical Education Building) and the search for a new PSC President as significant issues which have been dealt with since she took office.

Muth working toward 1,000 students

By Pam Hamblin

The general goal of the admissions department at Peru State College is to raise the enrollment to 1,000 students, according to Admissions Director Dr. Richard Muth. Peru State attempts to accomplish this through yearround recruiting drives. ,The enrollment is estimated to be below 800 students at the present ·time, according to a report by the State College Board of Trustees. According to Dr. Muth, there can be no specific statement made as to the success or failure of the recruiting efforts. He did say, however, that a number of students will be coming to Peru beginning in January.

Some will be students who have completed all the requirements for graduation from high school at midterm in their senior year. Others will have completed junior college programs. He feels that these commitments may be as a result of the recruiting efforts, but that fact will be impossible to ascertain until they enroll.

Muth stated that he sees present enrollment at Peru $tate 9n

the decline. He named several reasons that could be causing this:

Peru State College's enrollment increased during the Vietnam war before the instigation of the lottery draft system. As soon as the lottery came in, however, it began dropping off. Muth said also that there is a current trend away from the four year liberal arts college and toward the vocational and technical college that is taking place across the nation. He also said that fewer students are attending college than in recent years.

Muth said that during the course of a year the admissions department staff as a whole try to visit 600 high schools and 200 junior colleges. They also try to attend 30 college programs and 3 college fairs.

According to Muth, perhaps the best response came at two college fairs that the admissions department recently attended.

At the fair in Minneap<>lis, Minnesota he said that they talked with over fifty individuals about attending Peru State College. He said that they usually talk to an estimated"20-30. In Chicago,

talked to over 80 students at the fair.held there. They usually talk to between 30 and 40.

Muth estimated that between 11 and 17 per cent of the students that they contact during a given year end up coming to Peru State College.

Annual 'campus writing contest underway

source of information for the newspapers," she said.

There are quite a few things the Board does that most students are not even aware 'of, but which may be of importance to them. One of these-is the recently completed Role and Mission Statement, according to Eldonna. The Role and Mission Statement is a -summary of the programs, policies, academic offerings and concerns of each of the four state colleges in the near future.

"This has a more direct effect on students than they realize," she said. "Students need to take a closer look at which college has what they need and which can educate them in the most effective way. These statements about the future of the colleges are important because it is hard to change policies very much."

Eldonna sees a stable future for the state colleges because they have become stronger as a unit. "They have to get away from individualism and work as a unit to compete with UNL and the other colleges," she said.

"The increase in enrollment looks promis1ng, but is not a dependable measure for the future because so many factors can influence it. I do think students today have more of a purpose in mind when attending college because they are not pressured to go to college to avoid the draft, as they were when enrollments rose during the late 1960's," Eldonna said.

She added that such things as setting and size have a lot to do with students deciding to attend a state college. "Many students would rather be a name than a number," she said. "Also it is hard for a person to go to a big school when they have come· from a small town."

With the student representatives on campus to help students realize that what the Board does has a direct effect on them; with the campus newspapers picking up more and more on important issues, Eldonna thinks the student Board members can have even more direct contact with students.

"Hopefully, students know who their student representatives are and will go to him or · her with questions or problems, but it is up to the student representative to seek out student input and to be an available

Eldonna is one of those students who came from a small town. She is a native of Sterling, Nebraska_; which is a community of 480, located west of Peru. Eldonna is the daughter of Mr and Mrs Shannon Hazen who, at present, are in the process of opening a lawn and garden center in Sterling. Eldonna also has one married brother.

She described herself as a "sports fanatic" and likes to spend what little free time she has participating in sports or just sitting around talking to people. Although Eldonna is a junior majoring in Music Education, she is not entirely sure if she wants to teach.

However, no matter what she ends up doing in the way of a career she says her main goal is "to in some way pass my knowledge on to someone else." Hours--9 a.m.-3 p.m.

Looking back

By Tom Banks

As the first semester draws to an end, let's look back on some sports highlights.

First, .coach Pat Gilbert's womens volleyball team posted a sparking 19-7 rncord. The Bobkittens took third in the state tournament, the first time Peru made it to the finals.

The varsity football team gave the crowds many thrills enroute to a 5-5 season, the best record since 1973. The young Bobcats of Coach Jerry Joy faced some tough competition along the way, and 1978 season prospects look bright.

The Peru State men's basketball team had their eighth win in sight Wednesday night against Midland. Eight wins would be the most viCtories at Peru ,since the '72-'73 team under coach Jack Mcintire, which finished at 12-ll. However, this version of the 'Cats have a whole second semester to go, and several records are destined to fall.

The Bobcat wrestling team placed seventh last week at the Northwest Missouri State Invitational. The 'Cats have yet to make their home appearance this season, but January will bring a few home matches.

·The men's basketball team is averaging over 94 points per game, which should put Peru high in the national ranks in that category.

Senate discusses gameroom move

By Beth Propst

At the January 12 Student Senate meeting items discussed by the Senate included a proposal to move the gameroom to the fishbowl, a suggestion to add more members to the Senate, and discussion concerning the PSC yearbooks.

Students favor penalty guides

In a poll conducted by the Student Senate of ·peru State College during second semester registration, students voted almost 2-1 in favor of establishing maximum penalty guidelines regarding student misconduct, according to Senate President Steve Lewis.

The poll read "Do you think guidelines are needed regulating maximum penalties or punishments for a student's misconbusiness education; Jo Ann Schl!ltz, Tecumseh, eleinentary education; Stanley Wissel, Bennet, health and physical education and coaching; Peggy E. Witty, Nebraska City, elementary education and special education.

duct? At the present time if an incident is brought before the Student Affairs Commission, the Commission has the flexibility of determining the maximum penalty for misconduct."

The Senate also said that if there was sufficient support, it will submit guidelines to be considered by the Student Affairs Commission and the College Affairs Commission. The final tally was 140 yes, 74 no. Falls, Tex., health and physical education and coaching; Dixie Marie Cook, Lincoln, social work; Jeanne L. Dewald, Alexandria, coin.inercial art; Maureen Anne Duffy, Belleuve, fainily home and consuiner econol:nics; Jaines Ray Ford, Kansas City,. Kansas, psychology - sociology; Ted L. Harshbarger, Auburn, business administration; John Herbst, Independence, Missouri, social work; Joyce K. (Mrs Walter)

The proposal to move the gameroom also provided for mpving the TV room downstairs to the present gameroom. An office would be made out of what is now the T.V. room. This would make the gameroom more visible and perhaps generate more student use, according to Vickie Williams, Student Programs Coordinator. This proposal was tabled until Jan. 28 to allow tiine for student feedback on the idea.

It was al.so suggested that more students are1ieeded to serve on corrirrii.ttees in the Senate. There was some discussion on how many more were needed, and it was suggested to have one representative from each dorm for each committee.

A brief discussion on the new yearbooks was held revealing that there has been a lot of problems in trying to get it published.

Some other items discussed were Senior Day, to be held Feb. 14. It was also reported that 29 students were academically suspended during the first semester.

Changes

By Kent Propst

Welcome back to another fun-filled semester with the Pedagogian. We are planning several improvements for this semester, but we are always open to suggestion and criticism not only from students but faculty, staff, and administration.

The biggest change during this semester is the promotion of Steve Chatelain to co-editor. Steve is no rookie, having been Ped editor one year ago. You'll be hearing from him soon, so I'll let him do his own boasting. Suffice to say, welcome back to the trenches, Steve.

We also hope to run two regular features that should prove valuable to students. Bill Andrews will submit a regular lunch menu, so students with meal tickets can plan their eating schedule. He stresses the fact that the menu will be followed as closely as possible, but delivery hangups may force changes on some occasions.

Also, we hope to run a regular weekly calendar of events on campus. Vickie Williams has agreed to provide this service, and students can plan their "social calendar" around it.

Once again, I would like to stress the fact that the Ped is your newspaper. We can only be as good as you will let us. We are always open to letters to the editors, which can be submitted to Mr Chatelain, our advisor Everett Browning, myself, or Box 120 in the campus mail room. Please·sign your name to all letters.

By Vickie Williams, Student Programs Coordinator

Each semester every student enrolled in 7 or more hours pays a $10 student programs fee, which comes to approximately $5000.00. Have you ever wondered what becomes of that money?

It is turned over to Student Senate to be budgeted for ·the semesters' activities.

During the past semester, student programs money was spent on freshmen orientation, homecoming activities, dances and a concert by Mark Thompson. Funds were also allocated as prize money for the gameroom tournaments and the car rally

The movies, which were contracted for last year, are being paid for this year.

Student Senate also sets a day aside each semester when cam-

pus organizations can submit budgets for activities they would like to sponsor. This semester that date will be January 26.

Last semester monies were given to the English Club ($225.00), Home Economics Club ($50.00), Concerned Black Students ($250.00J, Phi Beta Lambda ($250.00) and Epsilon Pi Tau ($225.00). The activities sponsored by these groups include a writing contest, a dance, lectures and the Martha Washington Tea.

The Senate would welcome student input on programming. Senate meetings are held every Thursday at 5:30 in the Student Center WestDining Room. If you have any suggestions or ideas, attend a meeting or contact a senate member or Vickie Williams, Student Programs Coordinator.

Hoyt Street runs east and west along the north side of Morgan Hall and the Fine Arts Building.

Activities budget

to special events?

By Beth Propst

The bulk of the more than $5,800 P.S.C. activities budget would go for the special events committee under a tentative recommendation Thursday by the Peru State Student Senate.

Chairperson of the Special Events committee, Sheila LaMountain, reported that approximately $3,500 would be needed to cover all of the second semester dances and Spring Week activities. An immediate $325 was requested and approved for three upcoming dances.

The Films, Arts and Lectures committee has asked for $1,560 loJ>ay for this semester's movies, all of which have already been scheduled.

Shad Goodloe, Recreation Committee Chairperson, also requested an $800 budget, of which $300 would be used to improve and· update present gameroom equipment. A bill by Goodloe was approved asking for $232 to cover entry fees to a regional contest in Kansas City for students who won the PSC Tournament held last semester.

The Academic Affairs committee met twice during the week to decide upon the request for readmittance by a student

who was academically suspended. The request was denied and appealed to the Coilege Affairs committee who were to review the situation Monday, according to Senate President Steve Lewis.

A new committee, Institutional Relations, will be made up of six faculty members, editor of The Pedagogian, one person from Admissions, one from the Student Senate and one person from Placement.

The results of the student opinion poll taken at registration on punishment guidelines were released but no action was taken.

Poor. sports?

By Becki Young

Over the last two years, one thing that I have always noticed and been proud of is the great spirit and sportsmanship exhibited by both PSC students and athletes.

Lately however, I have heard more and more "discouraging words" from the "Bobcat" brigade.

Festival can be BIG

By Steve Chatelain

Fundraising efforts for the Festival of a Thousand Oaks, the music festival planned for PSC from June 3 to July 9, began at the first of October. Those efforts bogged down but recently Calista Cooper Hughes, a former state senator from Humboldt and the president of the Festival, has been barnstorming civic meetings in area communities hoping to generate in the neighborhood of $40,000 for the first year's administrative capital.

At one meeting she stated that the Festival "allows the opportunity for southeast Nebraska to be at the core of one of the finest music schools in the nation." At first glance this seems to be a bit presumptious in light of the difficulties in raising funds and also in light of the lengthy and tedious histories of other -outstanding schools of similar format scattered throughout the nation.

However, Mrs Hughes did not say that achieving premier status would occur overnight and she would probably be the first to recognize the evolutionary nature of such projects. But she is enthusiastic nevertheless - and with good reason - for her own dynamism is matched by that of two others instrumental in the planning of the Festival - Thomas Briccetti, conductor of the sponsoring Omaha Symphony Orchestra, and Bill Hilyard, the Festival manager.·

7-9 p.m. Crisis Intervention Seminar, FA 105.

Tuesday, Jan.

Briccetti took over the Symphony in 1975 and has since molded an entirely amateur, civic orchestra into a fine regional symphony with 22 fulltime professionals.

Before arriving in Omaha, Hilyard was chairman of the Greater Cleveland Solo and Ensemble Contest Association. Another source of optimism over the planned Festival is its location. According to Mrs Hughes, the PSC campus is ideal, not only in esthetic beauty but in physical facilities as well.

The campus will be the residence of the Nebraska Sinfonia, the core group of the Omaha Symphony; about a dozen nationally and internationally known guest artists; and from 100 to 110 students. Also, according to Mrs Hughes, the campus housing will accommodate music lovers wishing to visit the Festival and take in a weekend of concerts.

This Festival, as with any similar project, will, of course, benefit the students participating. It will also provide paychecks to the guest artists and, as it has been acknowledged by Mrs Hughes, will be a tremendous boon to the professional members of the Sinfonia as it will extend their season, and thus their pay, through nearly half of the summer.

But the greatest beneficiary of this project is Peru State and the surrounding communities. If the Festival is a success this year (and after all of the time spent planning, thoughts of failure are avoided) and it becomes an annual event, the college, and southeast Nebraska, will receive unprecedented exposure.

Mrs Hughes said recently that the Festival will cause the name Peru State College to be "bandied about in the capitals of the world." Again Mrs Hughes can be excused for her overzealousness, but the point of her remark is not to be shrugged at. The Festival of a Thousand Oaks CAN be a cultural and economic stimulus to the college and to this area. It CAN place Peru in an elite position among the two dozen similar festivals in the country. And, most importantly, it CAN be the greatest image building step this institution has ever undertaken.

Kittens on the move

Bobkitten basketball upped tM1r record to 7-4 with victories over Doane College 64-25, and Chadron St. College 56-31 at Peru last week.

Since the first home game loss to Avila College, the women have gone unbeaten at home. Keep it up with a win tonight, , 'Kittens!

Into the thick of the men's basketball season when playoff berths are being thought of, only four NAIA District 11 teams have winning records. Kearney St. College is 12-2, Hastings College 8-4, Chadron St. College 12-6, Peru St. College 12-6, and Wayne St. College is even at 8-8.

For the fans who have been following the Bobcats in basketball, the song "United we Stand, Divided we Fall" is the··· best way to sum it up, right?

The Bobkittens played_at Col· Iege of St. Mary Wednesday night and they wib host Dana Friday night (tonight) at 7: oo p.m.

The Bobkitten record was 7-4 over-all and 6-1 in Nebraska AIAW play going into Wednes· day's game with College of St. Mary.

Public radio hill proposed

A legislative bill that would eventually establish a public radio station at Peru State College was heavily scrutinized at a public hearing of the Nebraska Legislature's Education Committee last week.

LB 601, which is designated the "Nebraska Public Radio Act," would create the Nebraska Public Radio Commission to promote and establish "noncommercial educational and public radio facilities within the state of Nebraska" and provide "noncommercial educational and public radio programs throughC out the state of Nebraska by standard broadcast," the bill states.

The Nebraska Public Radio Network created under the act would consist of at least five radio production studios and nine transmission facilities. If the bill passes the Legislature, Peru State College appears a probable site for one of the transmission facilities.

The others, according to the act, would be operated in Lincoln and at Kearney State College, Chadron State College and Wayne State College. The remaining four transmission outlets "shall be licensed to and operated oy educational institutions as determined by the Commission."

LB 601 was sponsored by state Senators Shirley Marsh and Steve Fowler, Lincoln, and Dave Newell, Omaha. The hearing on SeeP"2

Vandalism problem costly

By Pam Hamblin

Although there was considerable vandalism on campus at the end of the fall semester, there has been practically none so far this semester at Peru State.

That's about the way vandalism runs, according to Dean of Services, Paul Stubbe.

According to Superintendent of Buildings, Marvin Middle, damages from vandalism during the last couple of weeks in October and the months of November and December include:

Gym damage totaling around $105. Delzell has damages totaling approximately $305, and Clayburn-Matthews and Davidson-Palmer had their name plates removed. This is only a partial list of the damages.

Middle said that he would like to hear student suggestions on how to curb vandalism. He believes that in order for the college to improve, sttidents should try to solve problems themselves through constructive means.

Middle stated that he hopes to make improvements in the game rooms in the dorms and to plan more activities if vandalism is curbed. He feels that making the Student Senate aware of the situation has helped the problem. ·

Bidding 'error' nullifies gym contract

The Nebraska State Board of Trustees voted Jan. 27 to make modifications in the design specifications of the Peru State College Health and Physical Education Center and to re-bid the project before midMarch.

The action was taken after

trustees learned that the apparent low bidder on the project, Knudson, Inc., of Council Bluffs, had claimed an error in its bid following the award of the contract in early December.

The claimed error of $55,000 put the Knudson bid of $1,735,000

over the amount appropriated for the project. Other bids received by the trustees in December also were over the appropriated amount.

The Board of Trustees instructed the project architect, the Leo A. Daly Co., to work with the Peru State College administra-

tion to modify the original design so that new bids may be considered by the board at its meeting March 17.

Site preparation work on the project began in December under a separate contract with Ed Miller and Sons Construction Co. of Omaha.

Anyone interested in becoming a DJ or who would like to be part of the radio scene should contact Dunn at Room 26 Davidson Palmer or call 8727295.

rSteve Lewis, President of the Student Senate, has set the first week in April as a tentative date for annual Student Senate elections.

Generally, elections are to be held during the third week in March but this year that falls within spring break.

Prospective candidates must be cartying a load of at least 12 hours and be averaging at least a 5.00 grade point average. Any student who is a candidate must submit to the Senate Political Committee a petition with the signatures and social security, numbers of at least 50 Peru State Students.

Senate president Lewis said Wednesday the political committee of the Senate has set

According to Roger Flanders, director of institutional relations, the main issue is cost. The bill was proposed to avoid increased cost by duplication of classes. But Flanders said that there is no significant cost at Peru in offering 2year programs because these classes are offered anyway in the 4 year programs.

State Senator Frank Lewis of Bellevue interprets the bill to say that Peru, Chadron, and Kearney could still offer their courses but that the degrees would be awarded by other institutions.

Southeast Community College would be responsible for the two year programs and the University of Nebraska at Lincoln for the Kearney graduate program.

"The intent of LB846 is to define who can grant what degree, and to further cooperation between the institutions in the state," Flanders said.

A hearing was held Tuesday night in Lincoln on the bill. Peru was represented by several fac-

as election day, with balloting held in the Student Center. He said that a Senate President-Vice President team, four dormitory representatives, four senators-at-large, and class officers for the upcoming senior; junior, and sophomore classes will be held at that time.

Lewis said the petitions can be picked up Feb. 27, and must be returned by March 15. Each candidate must have the names and social security numbers of 50 Peru State students on his or her petition. He pointed out that, although the President and VicePresident run as a team, each candidate must turn in a petition.

The newly-elected Student Senate will take office April 13, Lewis said.

At the hearing, "friendly amendments" were proposed by Senator Sam Cullan and Senator Jack Mills which would allow Peru and Chadron to keep their Associate of Arts degree and for Kearney to maintain their Masters in Business Administration degree.

A date was not set as to when the bill will make the unicameral floor. The bill is still in committee.

Eight students to study Omaha

Eight Peru State College students will participate in a "field study experience" of economically deprived areas of Omaha Feb. 23-24.

The study, entitled "Project Aware," was made possible by a $500 grant from the Nebraska Educational Television Council for Higher Education (NETCHE). The students, all education majors in their professional teaching semester, will visit schools, businesses, homes, churches, and recreational facilities.

Students participating in the experience will be Gary Allis, Auburn; Carolyn Bednar, Johnson; Carol Hemmingsen, Auburn; Jody Henning, Peru; Helen Pugh, Peru; Shirley Snyder, Johnson; Diana Sullivan, Auburn; and Ruth Lloyd, Falls City.

A variety of activities will be videotaped for the future use of all Peru State students to increase their awareness of other aspects of American culture.

Accompanying the students on the field study experience will be Mrs Ruthe Lachelt, assistant professor of education and project designer; Dr. Myron Apilado, dean for student development; Dr. Mike Land, chairman of the education division; Cal Bone, assistant professor of education; and Paul Kruse, director .of :instructional media.

Letters to the Editor

Sexual maturity lacking

Dear Sirs:

Being in college means a lot of different things to all of us, but to everyone it means we are out on our own and responsible young adults. We are supposedly more mature than we were in high school, with this maturity comes certain privileges.

Among these is the right to conduct our sexual relationships as we see fit.

Casual sex or sex on the deep commitment level can be, and is, great if the parties involved feel good about themselves and what they are doing. Sadly enough, some girls are hurt because of these relationships. This oftentimes is because the "boy" was not mature enough to be involved in the relationship.

There are a few male students at Peru who have this problem. Not only do they lack the maturity to be sexually involved, they also lack the consideration of others.

These certain "boys" engage in casual sex (which is fine if the person is a mature, responsible adult) and then to demonstrate how immature they are, they proceed to drag the girls' name in the dirt. This attitude of "I had my fun, now I think I'll hurt her" is a prime of double standards.

I say thumbs down to these individuals! Their immaturity not only hurts tne girl and themselves, it hurts us. The hypocracy that thrives on this sort of irresponsibility is a disease: first it infects and eventually it can kill. Let's hope for our sake and theirs these boys grow up. Our nation does not need any more people with double standards.

Circle K involvement asked

Dear Sirs:

There are two kinds of people on every college campus: the involved and the uninvolved. The involved people belong to Circle K, a collegiate service organization with a purpose, a sense of direction.

Circle K is dedicated to community improvement through service projects like donating blood and visiting shutins. How involved are you? Would you like to get involved? Circle K needs you, now more than ever, during Circle K. week Feb. 5-11.

Politics are coming back into focus again around the cotJntry. Democratic U.S. congressional candidate Hess Dyas was on campus last Friday, unbeknownst to most students. The previous week Republican hopeful Doug Bereuter was visiting the Peru area, campaigning for the same post.

While names like Thone, Bereuter, Dyas, etc., may not mean much to students, they should c;onsider upcoming elections of another sort: Student Senate elections, which will be held in early April.

Students should not take Senate elections and campaigns lightly. How would you like the chance to allocate a budget that runs into five figures? Most students do not realize what the Senate can do and does.

Conspicuous among the supporters of the bill at the meeting, according to a Lincoln Star account of the proceedings, were a number of blind persons. Many blind and other reading-handicapped persons advocate passage of the bill because it woUld provide special programming of music, news and in-depth political analysis now available in only limited areas to persons of the entire state, the Star indicated.

In lobbying for the bill, Doane College president Phil Heckman said the first phase of establishing the network would involve the creation of the Commissionoperated station in Lincoln, the

immediately

Anyone currently on work study and looking for a job can contact Marvin Middle, superintendent of building and grounds "immediately," according to Paul Stubbe, dean of student services.

Persons interested can locate Middle at the Physical Plant Building or call extension 257.

Star noted. This station, which would serve about 728,000 persons in southeast Nebraska, would cost about $68,000 in state tax money to equip and an additional $155,000 to operate for the first year, according to the Star's report of Heckman's testimony.

Federal funds, which would pay three-quarters of the initial costs, would be significant in keeping those initial equipment costs down, Heckman reported.

The second phase of the act would establish the stations at state colleges and a third stage would establish stations at the unspecified educational institutions. The total operating costs, Heckman said, would amount to about three-quarters of a million dollars, the Star noted.

Opposition to the bill, which came mainly from the private broadcast industry in the state, indicated that introduction of public radio would,,be costly in a time when taxes are high, would invite unnecessary federal government intervention and would appeal to a small audience, the Lincoln paper reported.

Opponents of the bill warned that its passage is an invitation for governmental control of the news. "Federal control invariably follows federal funds," Dick Chapin, president of Stuart Enterprises, a midwest radio concern, was quoted by the Star.

John Howard, president of the Nebra'ska Broadcasters Association, testified that private stations are carrying the kinds of programming that all but a small group of citizens want, the pa per reported.

from budget

By Beth Propst

The Special Events committee of the Student Senate was allocated more than half of the campus budget money at the Student Senate meeting last week.

A total of $3,500 was the amount requested and granted to the Special Events committee, while $1,560 was allowed for the Films, Arts and Lectures committee and $800 for the Recrea- · tion committee.

In other action two proposals were passed by the Senate. The motion to move the gameroom to the Fishbowl was approved, and it was propose\! and passed to abandon an attempt to set up student suspension guidelines, a concept an apparent majority of

the students favored.

At an earlier meeting, Vicki Rader was elected the. new Freshman representative. Rader was approved in an executive meeting called by Senate President Steve Lewis. · Lewis also announced that all material for the yearbook would have to be in no later than February 10, (today) or no yearbook would be published. The money would be returned to those who ordered books. Arequest by Kevin Hart representing Drama Club for $250 was submitted to be reviewed by the Senate. A letter was also to be sent to all campus organizations informing them of the possibility for budget aid requests. ,

Four night run·

By Steve Chatelain

The song "Lovels In The Air Tonight" pretty w.ell sums up the action of "The Boyfriend", the musical-comedy which begins a four - consecutive - night run on the college stage Wednesday at 8 p.m. That song, sung by Madame Dublmnet (Jennifer· Lewis) in· the climatic third act, shortly precedes the coming-together of more love duos than can be · realistically credited to coincidence. Yet, the show is funeand its tongue - in - cheek look at the Flapper Era is entertaining.

'The Boyfriend' opens Wednesday Hike in activity fee pondered by Senate

By Beth Propst

The Peru production of "The Boyfriend" is being directed by Dr. James Harney, assistant professor of speech and drama.

The first-year PSC instructor is being assisted by· choreography director Shari Hoelker, director Dr. David M. Edris, and technical supervisor Dr. Royal' Eckert.

"The Boyfriend" was written by Sandy Wilson an<l first published in 1954. It takes place in the 1920's and centers around a girls' charm school on the French Riviera.

The first act.takes place in the parlor of the school, run by Madame Dubonnet and attended by Dulcie (Mary Beceard), Fay (Karen Guertin), Nancy (Lori Stortenbecker), Maisie (Dawn Lytle), and female lead Pplly (Mary Kempkesl.'

Polly has been sent to the school by her overbearing, widower father, Percival Browne (Dan Todd), who, it turns out, was a war-time beau of Madame Dubonnet. ·

The love inter.est begins in the first act as Dulcie, Fay, Nancy and Maisie are courted by. Alphonse (Mike Dorn), Pierre (Aaron B. Larson), Marcel (Ron Doeden) and Bobby (Keith Rippe, and is fueled throughout as the four "young laldies" tease their male counterparts during flirtatious song and dance numbers.

The male lead is Tony Brockhurst (Mike Collins). Tony is the son of a rich British couple (Rob. McKercher and Kim Berger) who has left family and school to make his proverbial "way in the world". Working as a delivery boy, Tony meets Polly ·and, you · guessed it; tbe two immediately fall in love.

Providing musical accompaniment for "The Boyfriend" are "Razin' Days and the Red Hot Nine" - a combo directed by Dr. Edris. The "Red Hot Nine" are Ronda Frank, Eldonna ffa,, zen and Kim Sharp on woodwinds, trumpet .players Dick Taylor and Dee Dettmer, trombone player Karen Doeden, De nise Lockard ·on piano, Bob Svoboda on bass, and percussionist Perry Biaggi.

The production's set and lighting schemes were conceived by Aaron B. Larson. Construction supervisors were Steve Dunn and RQb. McKertjier.

$1.46 billion

A motion passed two weeks ago by the student senate suggesting a hike in PSC activity fees is to be given further consideration, according to Senate president Steve.Lewis. Lewis reported that tuition and tentative room and board hikes for next year may cause a five dollar activity fee increase idea to be abandoned. The increase was suggested to try to book 'big 1 name' bands for a concert or dance at Peru State College.

In other business the senate approved the appropriation of $250 for Drama Club for a summer production and $600 of a requested $1,000 to Concerned Black Students to be used for special activities during Cultural Awareness week.

It was also decided that a letter would be sent to Paul Stubbe, dean of student services, explaining in depth the plans for moving the gameroom to the Fishbowl.

Carter proposes financial aid boost

By Mary Kempkes

President Carter has proposed a bill to. Congress that, if passed, will increase aid to college stu- · dents by $1.46 billion in the form of scholarships, loans, and workstudy projects.

The Administration. introduced the bill to Congress in an attempt to counter a bill now being considered that would add $4. 7 billion to the Federal education bill. This second proposal is contained under Title I which includes increased spending for the education of the handicapped.

Title I proposes that more aid be given in education in the form · of tuition tax credits. There is quite a bit of controversy over this aspect of the bill in that it will benefit the parents of children in private and parochial elementary and secondary schools. It would also take effect

Scholarship

in all income levels without pinpointing help to the needy. This bill then, would benefit especially the middle class. However, if Carter's bill is chosen over Title I, then the emphasis in college aid will

remain with those deemed needy of assistance.

·

Legislator Ernest L. Boyer heads the fraction of Congress against the tax credits because he claims it would ·"distribute benefits irrespective of need."

Read feels that there are three pitchers who have proven themselves, and a couple niore w.ho will improve as the season starts. Those pitchers he cifes as gOod performers are DonHardeSee P. 3

Dean, AD sell. burros

By Becki Young

"Milton" and "Doc", two small burro s, were auctioned off last .week, according to owners Paul Stubbe, dean of student services and Jerry Joy, athletic director. The burros, small donkeys, were purchased as Christmas presents for their wives, Susan Stubbe and Marlene Joy.

In subsequent interviews with various members of both families, there were mixed emotions.

According to 12-year-old Christy Joy, daughter of Coach Joy, "Doc", who was kept in their garage, was "Too much trouble. :But my sister cried."

I Susan Stubbe, wife of.the dean, said of .Milton's departure, "Better earlier than· later. He was cute bµt. some things are cuter.''

According to both Stubbe and Joy, Milton and Doc, who grew up together, would "talk" to each other in the early morning hours. This communicati!>n· was fine except that theylived across town from each other. It was felt the neighbors probably did not appreciate their sunrise seranades.

According to Stubbe, both burros were sold together to a farm

Technically speaking ,

By Kent Propst

Only a few weeks back, the Ped carried an editoricil questioning the sportsmanship ofPeru State fans. It berated the home fans for their actions during a clo5e game against Chadron State.

This editor must offer a confession. He (and a host of other Bobcat faithful) acted no better than the meanest bunch of fans could during a title game. I refer to the Peru vs. Bellevue College contest last Saturday night.

In defense of and the rest of the PSC fans players who. were there, it 'was the poorest. job of officiating I have witnessed in interscholastic athletics. Though Peru gave perhaps their weakest effort of the season, still .it wouid have been impossible to come away with a factory iii the face of the· Bellevue officials.·

possible 'costly hazard'

By Beth Propst

Voicing concern about possibly costly hazards, Paul Stubbe, dean of student services suggested that the student senate reconsider thoughts of a rearrangement of the gameroom. This recommendation came one week before the proposed gameroom move was to have taken place. Added concern was voiced by PSC president Tangeman.

A proposal to move the gameroom to the fishbowl has met with opposition; fear of breakage and who is to pay for damages has stalled the proposal which was passed by the senate on Jan. 12. · Stubbe and senate presi•t

Steve Lewis were to have met to draw up guidelines for Dr. Tangeman, who will make the final decision concerning the proposal. Lewis reported that the college library is in the process of changing the library from the Dewey Decimal System of book classification to the Library of Congress system. The change is to take approximately two years to complete.

Lewis also announced that commencement exercises are to be held May 13 and the exercises are planned for outside.

In. other business, the food committee met to discuss many suggestions, including a "sug-

gestion box" for students as well as a managers' complaints column. More lunch card flexibility and implementation of a salad bar were also discussed by the committee. ·

If more than 50 resided there, 25 signatures are necessary. These petitions, according to the Senate constitution, must then be presented to the residence hall director of that dorm, who submits the petition to the Senate political committee. Dorm reps must, of CO\lrse, reside in the dormitory from which they are elected.

Candidates for any of the above offices must meet a number of specific qualifications. Both the presidential and vice presidential candidates must have completed at least 30 semester hours of work at Peru State before the fall semester of their terms in office. ·

All office-seekers must not be on any type of social probation, must have a minimum grade point average of 5.00 as of the end of last semester, must plan to take at least 12 semester hours of work each semester he or she holds office, and the candidate must be "reasonably sure" of returning for both semesters of the coming school year.

Senator attracts audience

By Kent Propst

State senator Ernest Chambers from Omaha aroused a crowd of approximately 150 people in the Fine Arts auditorium March 7 as part of "Cultural Awareness Week".

"Cultural Awareness Week" was sponsored by the Concerned Black Students (CBS) club on campus. Funds for the week were provided by the Student Senate.

Chambers, the outspoken senator from Omaha's "near north side," spoke about the problems black people face in the white society today for the first hour, then fielded a considerable number of questions from the audience for an additional hour. The question and answer period was cut short by the Jateness of the hour, however.

During the speech, Chambers chided the white population, saying that although he lives in 1978, he is "still a semi-slave, setting here in the United States of America." He brought attention to the "insulting, degrading things done to us (black people) every day."

Chambers blasted the Nebraska legislature, calling the majority of state senators "spineless and mealy-mouthed", people who are only interested in seeing how long they can hold their office.

"Now, you didn't think a state senator would come down and speak like that, did you?" Chambers asked the crowd. The Tshirt-attired senator pointed out that the majority of the crowd had probably expected to him talk like a "white state senator."

blacks of· the importance of education. "Education will free us," he said. "Black students, stay in school. You've got to be able to use your minds," he said, "The thing that will give you confidence and assurance is knowledge."

He also urged the black people to greater political activity. "This state is in dire need of people with courage, and sympathy, and compassion," he said.

Senator Chambers is a representative from District 11 of northeast Omaha. He was first elected in 1970 and is now serving his third term in the Unicameral.

Invocation for the talk was given by the Rev. Ralph Gray of the Peru Community Church. Tarkio College's Children of God choir provided music as a part of the program.

increases are 12.2 percent and 11.42 percent, respectively.

Stubbe said the reasons for such large hikes are the increases in the cost of food and utilities, as well as increased minimum wage laws. The Board will make its final decision on the proposal March 17 (today).

BEOG renovations proposed

By Mary Kempkes

Some recent renovations within the Basic Educational Opportunity Grant program on the calculations of the Student Eligibility Index may allow more middle income students to receive the federal grant for 197879, according to Don Miller, director of financial aid at PSC.

This change is in no way associated with President Carter's bill to increase aid to middle class students, however.

According to Miller the changes have taken place in the calculation of the index with regards to family assets. In the past, there was an asset reserve. of $12,000 for· families whose assets did not include a farm or business. This reserve has been increased to $17, 000.

· Likewise, the family whose assets did include a farm or business was allowed an asset reserve of $25,000. This figure

number is larger than 1200 but less than 1600, says Miller. Miller suggests that students in this area apply even if they were not eligible last year.

These particular changes may make certain students eligible whose BEOG eligibility index

Perhaps this is what Chambers was trying to say to us as he made us shake in our boots with his words. As the Bible, whether authored by black or white men so aptly put it, "Man Jooketh on the outward appearance but God looketh on the Heart."

'Spring Week' to he 'bigger than ever

A full slate of entertaining activities has been planned for the annual "Spring Week," set for April 19-26, according to Vickie Williams, student programs coordinator.

The Special Events Committee of the Student Senate has a number of activities scheduled, leading off with a "Super Stars" contest, with faculty and student participants competing in an "Almost Anything Goes" style. The "Super Stars" program will run Wednesday and Thursday, April 19-20, according to Ms. Williams.

The rock group "Sapphire" will again perform for a dance, tentatively set for Friday, April 21. "Sapphire" was well received during 'an earlier ,performance here.

A ''Movie Marathon" is planned for Saturday night April 22, according to Ms. Williams. Movie titles will be announced in a future issue of the "Ped."

Despite word to the contrary the annual spring "Belle of Brownville" Missouri Riverboat cruise will once again take place. The cruise is set for Sunday, April 23, with a live band set to perform, Ms Williams said.

However, non-alcoholic

beverages only will be served. In the past, "Sally's Duffy's Inn" has been sponsors of the event, but a new interpretation of the Board of Trustees alcohol policy will necessitate the change.

A series of gameroom tournaments is being planned for Mondayand Tuesday April 24-25. Contest categories will be announced later. -·.

The final day of "Spring Week", April 26, will bring a flea market and carnival to campus.

"All campus organizations will be invited to participate and set up booths," Ms Williams said. She also noted that non-campus groups may bring items for sale

or display also.

The final day may also bring several "wandering acts" to campus, according to Ms Williams. These acts may include a minstrel, a hypnotist, and-or a comedian, depending on the amount of money left to be spent.

CALENDAR OF EVENTS

March 17-April 6

FRIDAY, MARCH 17

The Board of Trustees met yesterday and today for their regular monthly meeting. Hopefully, by the time you read this the Trustees will have begun to let bids for the construction of the new Health/PE center.

As you may remember, a bidding "error" by Knudson Co. of Council Bluffs negated the previous contract. That development was unfortunate but somehow not surprising at Peru. If all goes well, and if the modified plans are complete bids for the multi-million dollar center are again open with loss of actual construction time.

Of particular importance are the upcoming Student Senate elections. The elections will be held April 4-5 in the Student Center, which is before the next issue of the "Ped" will be printed.

Every semester, each student pays a fee that is funneled into the Senate. Wonder where your money goes? Find out - run for office and/or attend their regular meetings, Thursdays at 5:30 p.m. in the Student Center.

In the past, Senate elections have been more or less "kept in the dark." Not anymore. Turn out and vote this year. Show you do care.

And once again, instead of complaining, if you think you can do a better job, the election is your chance to prove it. If you don't take advant(lge of this once-a-year opportunity, don't come to me with your complaints.

If you missed state senator Ernest Chambers' talk March 7 you missed one of the most interesting events to happen campus in years. Opinions of his listeners are varied, but all must agree: the dynamic senator does make a lot of sense, even if his tactics are often purposely offensive.

Chalnhers speech draws comments ,

Controversial state senator Ernest Chambers generated quite a bit of opinion-offering following his recent speech here, Some reactions of students, faculty and administration included:

Shad Goodloe, Freshman, Chicago - "Senator Chambers was a very bold speaker. He said a lot of derogatory things against the white majority, but I feel if they weren't true he wouldn't have said them, Chambers could be a valuable asset to C.B.S. (Concerned Black Students), as he made himself available to them at any.time,''

Ms. Nancy Emerson, sociology teacher - "I have never been to omaha or seen where he is from, so I may be very ignorant, being new to the state. But it's so easy to criticize and so hard to do something about it. Generalizations can he very dangerous and I feel he generalized too much."

Mike Hamilton, sophomore, Chicago - "He's a cool brother. I like his. style. I'd also like to share a little of his profits! "

Dr. Leland Sherwood, art teacher - "Chambers is a very effective politician. As far as

raising the speed limit, he placed more emphasis on fuel, whether it is saved or not. I think it (lower limit of 55 mph) has saved lives and that should be given consideration.

And also, about the death penalty, if we are following a Christian philosophy, we shouldn't kill. Chambers seems to work well in the legislature. If the other senators worked as hard as he does supporting the people he represents, we would have a great legislature,''

Lee Tillery, freshman, New York - "I thought he was very good - qe's the ultimate death. Alot of things he said made a lot of sense. He was very heavy."

Paul Stubbe, Dean of Student Services - "I thought the things he talked about were true and that people are faced witli these kinds of decisjons every day, I feel what he was really trying to say was, that the only way you can change the direction of your life is by working to make yourself better. And he was proving it - he's a Legislator, a barber and going to college."

Vicki Rader, Freshman, Bellevue - "I think he was very interesting and mind-provoking.

He made people think and that was his purpose."

President Larry Tangeman"Chambers kept the audiences' attention. This is what a college campus is for - all points of view are to be heard, I'm glad he gave the opportunity for discussion. I was glad also for the respect for the opinions of each other. There was a freedom of interchange. People.listened to, not necessarily agreed with, others, or Senator Chambers. There was a free exchange of vastly differing ideas."

To middle class students

Carter hill 'would increase aid

By Mary Kempkes

President Carter has proposed a bill to Congress that, if passed, will increase aid to middle income college students in the form of grants and work study jobs. This hill might supply aid for students who in the past have been refused grants, according to Don Miller, director of financial aid.

The proposal as outlined by HEW Secretary Joseph Califano contains two items which would ·alter the aid given to middle

income students for 1978-79.

They are:

1. Guarantee an award of at least $250 in Basic Educational Opportunity Grant (BEOG) funds for students whose family income is below $25,000.

2. Create additional jobs through the College Work-Study Program for students whose family income exceeds $16,000.

According to Miller, if this bill is passed, it may have a positive financial effect on students who have never received anything in the past. "Seniors who haven't been eligible might get some relief if the bill is passed before

next spring," says Miller. Miller therefore advises students to apply for aid and work-study even if they have not been eligible in the past. Forms to apply for the BEOG are available in the Financial Aids office; but most students already received the forms in early February. To apply for the college work-study portion of this proposal, Miller suggests that the student complete the application for work-study which is the back page of the Financial Aid Student Handbook, and the Financial Statement as specified there.

Faulty fishbowl ceiling nixes gameroom plan

By Beth Propst

A more than two-month-old proposal to move the gameroom to the Fishbowl in the Student Center has stopped at last week's Student Senate meeting. College President Tangeman announced that the Fishbowl was unsafe for use because of a faulty ceiling, making any such move impossible, at least .for this semester.

Tangeman also announced the cancellation of the proposed spring Belle of Brownville riverboat cruise. The cruise previously has served alcoholic

Also, Peru's Social Science Society requested $300 for a field trip to Kansas City. No action was taken at the meeting.

At an earlier Senate meeting, hikes for Room and Board were announced and ·committee reports dealing with scholarships and the passage of the Facility Use Policy were reported.

The Student Affairs committee met to discuss distribution of the 213 available scholarships to PSC students, and reviewed four options for possible reassignment.. The College Affairs committee also met and passed the Facility Use Policy, which states non-campus groups must pay (or. college facility use. · ·· ·

Crowd thrills to 'P' Club smoker

A large crowd was on hand Tuesday, March 14, to witness the spring boxing smoker, sponsored by the Peru State "P" Club.

Ken Denning, Keith Williams, and Kent Coleman came away with the only knockouts of the night, while one match was decided by disqualification and four others by split decision.

Judging the bouts were faculty. members Paul Fell, Paul Kruse, and Fred Hamman, with referee Roger Flanders and timer Dr. Leland Sherwood.

Match results were:

Tom Milke over George Weiland by unanimous decision; Duane Skiles over Eric Johnson by unanimous decision; Roy Deines over Tommy Hayes; Mark Whitsell over Steve Orton by a split decision;

Del Novell over Rick Woods by split decision; De1111,ing over Richard Cunningham by a KO; Glen Hubbard over Mike Ellis by split decision; Keith Williams over Charlie Fox by KO; Greg Stockwell over Jon Orton; Rich Neubauer over Tim Alvis;

Despite being sent to the canvas by Mike Dorn early in the bout, Steve Medinger came back and won by an unpopular split decision.

Frank Barone literally was "down for the count" after attacking ent Coleman's fist· with his head. Coleman's kayo was one of ree during the smoker. ·

Rick Wood's left jab proves enough to hold back a Del Novell onslaught, but Novell went on to garner a split decision.

Uto Pio over Ed Connelly by disqualification; Steve Medinger over Mike Dorn by split decision; and Kent Coleman over Frank Barone by KO.

Though this Duane Skiles right connected to the head of Eric Johnson, one could neve_r tell by the xpression on Duane's. face.

A battered Eric Johnson goes to the corner following his defeat, by unanimous decision, at the hands of Duane Skiles.

RETURN TO LIBRARY BY APRIL 1

Library of Congress explained

By Pam Hamblin

Mrs Fay Brandt, librarian at Peru State's College library, announced plans to change their system of classification to the Library of Congress system from the Dewey Decimal system, because other academic libraries have been undergoing a similar change.

Mrs Stanley Mccaslin of the PSC library, ·said that she believes the change will be an advantage to those students planning ·on taking graduate courses at the University of Nebraska, as they will get used to the same system here as the

one that is in use there.

Mrs Brandt said the two systems are similar, except the Library of Congress system uses letters and the Dewey Decimal system uses numbers. Mrs Mccaslin said that the Library ·of Congress system is more detailed than the Dewey system, which the college library has · used since its beginning.

The decision to change classification systems was made about a month ago, and the first books were reclassified on Feb. 14. The two librarians said it will take a few years before a complete change will be made.

Grads can expect job market increase

The 'College Placement Council' (PSC) has reported that in a recent survey, 600 employers said they plan to hire 16 percent more college graduates than in 1976- '77, according to Director of Placement Don Schulze.

The employers also revealed that recruitment will be seleetive and that top students

will definately have the advantage. CPC said opportunities for qualified minoritites and women will remain ex<;ellent, especially in the business or technical fields.

· Schulze also relayed good news to liberal arts graduates.

Jie said the federal government has increased by 23 percent its hiring for Civil Service Jobs.

1977 minutes of the College Affairs Council, where the regulations were spelled out. They are as follows:

'

1.) Driver has t.o be on the Peru State College payroll (work-study is included).

2.J Person has to have a valid Nebraska driver's license.

3.) Person has to have successfully completed for credit the defensive driving course.

4.) Only in cas7 of emergency should a student drive a state car. The student must have his or her own insurance. This must be 'stated and authorized by the budget unit head in charge of the transportation request. ,. Dr. Tangeman said that "these regulations are in keeping with the overall statewide regulations.".

State-wide placement service available to seniors

Peru State seniors have at their disposal a state-wide job placement service, according to Don Schulze, director of placement at Peru State.

Since last October, Peru and 15 other Nebraska Colleges have CO!Jperated in the "Cooperative Student Placement" program (CSP), which is administered out of the NETCHE building in

The service is designed for seniors who are seeking employment in areas other than teaching. One requirement is that students interested in using CSP must furnish three copies of a well-prepared resume for each interview.

Powerfti Hastings avenges loss, 1 ends Peru playoff dreams

By Kent Propst

Peru State's dream of a spot in the NAIA national basketball tournament was shattered when the Bobcats were pasted by the Hastings Broncos 97-79 in the opening round of Division 11 playoffs at Hastings March 4.

The underdog Bobcats played Hastings clcise until a Hastings flurry midway through the second half finished Peru's hopes. Hastings went on to fall to Kearney State (a playoff winner over Doane) 82-80 March 6, allowing the Antelopes to represent District 11 in the Kansas City NAIA competition.

The Peru game was sweet revenge for the Broncos, who dropped a six-point decision tQ the Bobcats last November in the Marymount Tournament in ·· Salina; Kansas. Peru ended the season at 17-10, the best season in nearly a decade.

The playoff loss marked the final appearances by standout senior co-captains Kenny Johnson and Ricky Cooper and by head coach Jack Stewart, who announced his resignation earlier in the season.

Bobcat guard Greg Sanders opened scoring with a baseline jumper 15 seconds into the tilt,

Cats have 'Record' year

The Peru State Bobcats tied 1lr established nine new school records during the 1977-78 basketball season. The young Cats finished the season at 17-10.

Danny Shouse, junior guard from Terre Haute, IN, established three records. The biggest of these was becoming the eighth leading scorer in Peru State history, with an entire season of eligibility left. Shouse has 1096 career points.

Shouse also set records for most field goals scored in a season with 264, and most field goals attempted with 562.

Junior guard Greg Sanders, Hammond, IN, entered the books with the highest free throw percentage on a season, at .816 percent.

Kenny Johnson, senior forward from Miami, Florida, got on the books with -the highest

career field goal percentage, hitting on .537 percent of all shots. The team set a record for most field goals scored during -a- season with 984. The explosive Cats also set a record for highest season scoring average at 87.2

points per game. The high team field goal shooting percentage for a season record fell to the Bobcats. The new markis.486 percent.

The Bobcats incredibly tied theseas-0nrecord for most points scored, with 2355.

Eight Bobkittens earn letters during basketball campaign

Eight Bobkitten basketball players earned letters from head coach Marlene Joy during the 1977·'78' season, all of them underclassmen. Three freshmen

and five juniors were a..yarded athletic letters, including:..

Julie Brinkman, freshman from Palmyra; Mary Cotton,

junior from Woodbine, Iowa; Betty Hindman, freshman, from Glenwood, Iowa; Debbie Craig, junior from Jamestown, N.Y.; Laura Pollman, freshman from Wymore; Barb Rolf, junior from Albion· Julie Hartman, junior from 'Douglas; and Natalie Triggs, junior from Buffalo, N.Y.

DAIRY SHACK Phone

'and Peru was in control of the contest for the first four and one-half minutes. Four Bobcat personal fouls to none for the hosts began to take its toll as Doug Sweeney drew the first Hastings personal five. and onehalf minutes into the game. Superior rebounding by the Broncos allowed them to rush out to an 11 -point lead, 22- 11, 10 minutes into the game, A charge led by guards Sanders and Danny Shouse brought Peru back to within three on several occasions, and the 'Cats finally settled for a five-point disadvantage, 37-42, at the half.

Bronco 6'9" center Paul Berg- man led all scorers at halftime with 15, while Shouse had 12 and Sanders 10 for Peru. Kenny Johnson was saddled with four personal fouls and center Maurice Thurston had three at that point. The superior inside play and aggressive defense by the taller Broncos began to take its toll in the second half. The frustration the Bobcats experienced was best shown when a Peru fan,

Paul Stubbe, was given a techni· cal foul with just under 15 minutes to play and Peru trailing 60-48.' ··

That questibnable call was accented later when a college: yell leader, Jeff Pease, was kicked out of the gym for ques- · tioning an official's call.

Peru battled to within 10 with 12 minutes to play on a Cooper three-point play and a Johnson tip-in, 64-54. Center Maurice Thurston. fouled out shortly · thereafter, and that coupled with a rash of PSC turnovers spelled defeat for the 'Cats.

Despite the defeat, '77-'78 will be remembered as an exciting and successful basketball season. With the return of a solid nucleus, including all-state · guard Danny Shouse and running mate Greg Sanders, who is an unheralded playmaker and one of the top guards in the state, as well as junior center Maurice Thurston and a young bench that showed tremendous improvement throughout the season, the '78-'79 basketball campaign should prove to be even greater.

pAF fund drive announced

By Mary Kempkes

The 1978 Peru Achievement Foundation Fund Campaign is underway, according to PAF spokesmen. Donations are being sought from Peru students, parents of students, businesses and alumni throughout the nation in order to reach its goal of $30,000.

Funds from the drive will be used to support various efforts, including matching funds for the National Direct Student Loans (NSDLJ, The Festival of a Thousand Oaks; the regional Health and Physical Education Center; and the Bobcat Booster Athletic Fund.

Jack Mcintire, mayor of Peru and longtime faculty member and coach, is the chairman for the drive.

e e

Mcintire points out that donations towards the NSDL program are important since almost one third of PSC students depend on such financial assistance, and because the federal government matches every dollar contributed with nine dollars in federal funds.

Mcintire says that the fund drive is going well so far, but that he has no definite reports from area fund-raising chairmen yet.

Chairmen for the different cities are: Ron Wagner (Syracuse), Bill Snyder (Johnson and Tecumseh), Mike Mulvaney (Beatrice; Mike Castle and Jim Seifried (Falls City), John Mcintire II (Peru), Allan Casey and Dr. Jay Hauserman (Auburn), and Gerald Livingston (Nebraska City.

New cats and dogs

By Kent Propst

congrattilations goes out to the newly-elected officers for next year's Student Senate. Best of luck to you, let's hope your tenure is a productive, progressive one.

You needn't worry .about "The Ped" uncovering Watergate scandal. It is not our policy to bully or cajole. We feel that more can be accomplished if we assume the "watchdog" position.

The press and government are generally about as· compatible as a big cat and a small dog. This was very much the case earlier this year between outgoing president Steve Lewis and myself - there was a notable tenseness in the air when we.were in the same vicinity. · ·

As the year passed by, we both softened; I realized Steve was not out to embezzle funds or build an ·empire, but that the opinions of students did matter to his Senate. Steve, in turn, discovered "The Ped" was not out to smear his face with red ink or to sway Senate. opinion through the paper.

It's been a long year for the government and the' press at Peru State. I cannot say I agreed with everything the Senate did (or didn't), and I'm sure. the. feeling is mutual. But in a few short weeks the academic year will be over, and both Mr Lewis and. myself can turn the reigns over to the "new blood.'"

Hamann said the final weekend of the workshop will be in Huntsville where the class, having been transferred there by a United States air transport command plane, will visit NASA's space shuttle and the George C. Marshall Space Flight Center where astronauts are trained.

But the Alabama trip is just a portion of the program of the three-hour course "designed to acquaint the students with as many different

aspects of the aerospace industry in the U.S as possible," Hamann explained. Also scheduled are a number of shorter field trips to Offutt Air Force Base in Omaha and a series of daily seminars conducted by authorities in various phases of aeronautics, he added.

A NASA official will be on campus for three days talking about his agency and demonstrating equipment. The students will also build and fly model rockets to acquire some first-hand exin aeronautics, the PSC professor said.

Ochs names appointees

By Beth Propst

Several final position appointments were made by new Student Senate President Kirk Ochs, as the revised senate began their year-long reign Thursday, April 13.

The appointments made by Ochs were: Sheila LaMountain, Special Events committee; Shad Goodloe, Recreation Committee; Bill Snyder, Films, Arts and Lectures; Kent Propst, Institutional Relations; Becki Young, Student Affairs; Bridget Hoover, Library; Mary Gail Beccard, Steve Cole, Tim Pethoud, Mike Sutherland, Political Committee; and Deb Stemper, Treasurer.

The nomination was also made to recommend Dr. Anthony Rizzi as Senate faculty advisor:

The six members of the class, accompanied by Fitzgerald, will leave early Sunday morning on a week-long trip to Colorado. Fitzgerald said the class will see all of these different recreational installations and more along the Interstate through Nebraska and within 30 miles of their headquarters at the YMCA of the Rockies in Estes Park, Colo.

On the way out, the class will spend Sunday evening and Monday morning at Lake Mcconnaughey, Nebraska's largest lake, which is located near Ogallala. There, and at subsequent stops at Devil's Gulch, Bear Lake, Hidden Valley and Estes Park, the class will interview officials about the planning and operation of the recreation areas.

At Estes the students will be hosted by the general ·manager of the Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Recreation District, who will discuss the year-around recreational program in the park. Fitzgerald assured that the trip is an educational one. "We'll be taking our textbooks," the PSC recreation director said, indicating that the trip is a chance for students to see in practice what they have been studying.

The learning theme will be carried over into other aspects of the trip. "Every afternoon we will have group meetings to discuss the things we've seen," the instructor said Making the trip are Bev Pietzyk, Elk Creek; Jean Colbert, Weeping Water; Sheila LaMountain, Omaha; Rick Cooper, Shreveport, La; Joe Gergen, Shickley; and Jeff Pease, Fort Wayne, Ind.

Although the outdoor recreation planning course is not a new one, this year is the first that a major trip has been included in the curriculum. "The kids are pioneers, in a sense," Fitzgerald said in explaining that the students are doing much of the planning for the trip which could lay groundwork for future trips tq other areas of the c-o\Jntry.

Infamous 'MM' Ticket-bird retorts!

Dear Editor:

As I was flying over the campus on my daily rounds recently I perched upon an edition of your newspaper. Looking for an opportunity to feather my nest for the day. I fluttered upon your editorial.

Raising my beak to the skies I let out a song. Joyous was the note I sang, for finally recognition was mine. No longer was I just an ordinary dirty bird but a rare, ominous bird. My feathers ruffled with pride. Being a mother bird. I knew my small sparrows would be proud of me.

As I flew to the Eagles Nest to ask for a raise, thoughts of how it all began entered my little brain.

News had come to me from afar that in the land to the North there was need for a bird of my species. Violations were being made without regard to man or beast. Sensing my duty, I flew straight as a crow to one of the thousand oaks on campus and made my home away from home.

High in the tree, I observed the flocks below. Yes, !.. -could see it would be a tough wind to break.

To keep myself in birdseed, I took on a cover job in-between my attacks. Soon everyone feared "Dirty Bird". Little birds, big birds, birds of all species, it made no difference to me, they laid prey to me. Their cries .of mercy and indignations affected me not. I had a job to do, and do I must.

Day after day the vultures tore at my feathers but I stayed strong. Now law and order prevails, and summer is approaching. Soon I can hang up my pencil belt - until fall.

Amen. MM

The Student Affairs Commission finished the threemonth review of the guiqelines for Basic Tuition missions (scholarships il!ld waivers) as set by the State College Board of Trusteell;

According to Dean Paul Stubbe, the commission does not intend to add or subtract scholarships from any PSC departments but rather: to review the Trustee guidelines and to set up a reappOrtionment quota for unused or cancelled scholarships ·and waivers.

The main sources and apportionments for PSC waivers at present are: State Tuition Remission. Each year the state refunds 21 PSC's gross intake to be used as tuition waivers for financially needy Nebraska residents. Peru has about 18 waivers of this type.

Board of Trustees Scholarships. Peru is annually awarded 15 four-year waivers of this type (60 total), to be offered to Nebraska incoming freshmen with an ACT score of 24 or higher.

Jarvis to retire

By Steve Chatelain

At a banquet Saturday night, industrial arts instructor Dee V. Jarvis, will be recognized for 30 years of service to the college. Jarvis is retiring following the summer sessions.

Jarvis began teaching at Peru State in 1948 following graduation from here. Since that time he has been active in college and community affairs and has held several distinguished statewide positions. Among those latter plums are terms as president of the Nebraska Council on Industrial Arts Teacher Education, and chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Nebraska Industrial Education Association.

Jarvis took his primary and secondary education in area schools and enrolled al Peru State Teachers College in 1932. After leaving Peru, Jarvis taught at rural schools near Peru and Nemaha, and then held a teaching- coaching job at Brownville public school.

In 1942, Jarvis and his wife, Kathleen, moved to Denver, where the Peru grad was employed as a safety inspector, and later a safety engineer, for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

Soon after leaving the service, Jarvis returned to Peru and continued his education, which was followed, u?on graduation, by the college teaching opportunity.

Following his retirement, the Jarvises plan to remain in Peru, but hope to satisfy his interest in travel.

Students who will be attending summer school at PSC and who are seeking housing must sign up by Monday, according to Paul Stubbe, dean of student services.

Students may sign up for housing for either or both sessions of summer school. Peru State will also house students and teachers of this summer's "Festival of 1000 Oaks" music clinic.

Thank God It's Friday. Today marks the final issue of the Pedagogian this year. It has been a long year, but in many ways a satisfying one.

My personal feeling is, the Ped has done a highly commendable job of informing the student population at PSC. While I am sure no one read everything that appeared in the Ped this year, I feel there was very little "fluff', as co-editor Steve Chatelain is wont to call it. I honestly believe that every story we ran was of some benefit to somebody. "You can please all of the people some of the time "

Now is the time for thank you's, and the Ped is not without its share. Undoubtedly we will miss some of you, and we apologize.

First of all, thanks to you students who took the time to criticize our modest publication, criticism being the • only sure way to keep us "in line". Berate me, chide me, stone me, but please, tell me what you don'tlike. It makes for a better paper. ·

Thanks also to the two greatest informants the Ped · had; namely, Sports Information Director Marlene Joy and Institutiooal Relations Director Roger Flan- ' ders. They are a great part of the reason we had so little "fluff" in the Ped, and their cooperation has been sincere and unfailing. My successors take note - you will be hard pressed to keep on top of the news without

' their support. · '

Thanks also to many PSC faculty members who utilized the Ped. We are the best medium for getting 1 information to students, and the fact that we were 1 recognized as such was heartening.

And finally, thanks to the staff of the Ped. As I have said before, they are the reason for our continuing improvement. Special commendation must go to four valuable cogs in the Ped wheel: Tom Banks, who brought you the advertisements and put in many, many hours of his own time; Becki Young, who acted as my "clean-up" person and did a lot of little assignments that were given her under a tight deadline; and Pam Hamblin and Mary Kempkes, who were dependable and consistent and were vital to the weekly production of this newspaper.

There have, of course, been disappointments this , year, too. There are many, many things left undone, I · duemaiitlyto alack of manpower. Certainly there are { ·: · some that I feel personally responsiple { for, and perhaps Jam the least satisfied of any withj our product. · ·· ·· · r'j

Yet I feel the good things far outweighed the bad. We ·. i at the Ped hope you felt so, too. Thanks for the · \ memories, ,md GOOD LUCK SENIORS! I <

Newly-appointed Peru State basketball coach Billie Squires

Squires plans JV ball

By Kent Propst

With a new $2.3 million gym on the way and three starters returning from a 17-10 basketball team, Billie Squires has reason to be optimistic.

Squires was named head basketball coach at Peru State recently. It will be the first collegiate head coaching opportunity for the 31-year-old ex-marine from Winona, Minn.

However, he doesn't lack credentials. He was a three-year starter for Augustana University of Sioux Falls, S.D., and NCAA team. He also played· for the Hawaiian Marine Corps team and the AAU national championship team. Squires tried out for the 1972 O]ympic basketball team.

His Wanamingo (Minn.) high school teams recorded a cumulative record of 47-18. As assistant varsity coach at Winona State University, his teams posted a two-year record of 43·10, including second place in the NAIA national tournament.

Squires is completing work on his Master's Degree at Winona State. He will not join the Peru State coaching staff full time until August. He plans to overcome this obvious recruiting obstacle by concentrating on attracting a few good candidates from southeast Nebraska and his home state of Minnesota.

"It is going to be super to get the new gym, but people are more important than buildings," he said. "The new facility will be great for area basketball in general, not just at Peru State."

To make Peru State more attractive to area players, Squires hopes to begin a junior varsity basketball program. That way, first year ballplayers would have an opportunity to play rather than simply learning the system from the bench.

Squires was apprehensive Friday about the. attitudes of the returning basketball players, and said he will stress player-to-player and player-to-coach communi· cation. Returning starters will include Dan Shouse, Greg Sanders, and Maurice Thurston, along with sometime starter Rick Spears.

"You really have to feel sorry for somebody like Shouse," he said. "He plays under one coach for a couple of years, and then in his senior year, in steps a new coach with new philosophies." Shouse is a two-year all-state guard, and is considered one of the state's top guards.

Squires does not intend to change the wide-open style of play that has characterized Peru for two seasons. "We will alWflYS be looking for the fast break, and we'll play a fast-paced game both offensively and defensively."
