New Dorm Regulations

'Aimto l~prove Environs'

Mr L. David Eaton, new Housing Director at Peru State College favors new dorm policies in an.attempt to provide a better environment for all students.

Among Mr Eaton's· ideas are monthly room check, new commuter regulations, and the creation of quiet hours at the dorms.

Reasons for the room checks are to insure an orderly and safe environment for all students residing in dormitories. Maintenance personnel may observe ·a room btit are not to search it. Notice of these checks is to be made 24 hours in advance, according to Eaton. It was also stated by him that a room may be · entered by college personnel when the student is not in, but this is in disagreement with the housing contracts students signed prior to moving in. Mr Eaton said that further study wilt be given to this discrepancy of a school policy.

New commuter regulations state that all freshmen and sophomores under 22 years oiage, not commu~mg:

from home, are required to Jive on campus. The only exceptions to this rule are a written medical or psychological excuse by the student that ·the school will check into, or if a student is carrying eight or less credit hours.

A student may also be exempt from this rule if he is living with an immediate · relative or is married;

The 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. quiet hours have been introduced "to provide an environment condusive ·to the academic, social and cultural ma turation of the individual stu-

dent", according to Mr Eaton. These ·quiet hours represent the minimum or comparal)le quiet hours at other colleges and universities. Any hall may reqµest more hours or stricter enforcement but a request for fewer hours will not be considered, says Eaton. It is an accepted fact that all students are here to secure an education. Mr Eaton also states that the majority of students need to study and everyone is guaranteed this right.

THE TimE

Volleyball Squad Opens Season with Win and Loss

The Peru State Bobkitten volleyball squad opened their 1978 season by splitting a pair of matches at Nebra~ka Wesleyan University in Lincoln last Friday, September 15.

The veteran Bobkittens opened with a match against Omaha·s College of St. Mary. Peru took the first set 15-7 with "excellent teamwork" according to coach ·Pat Gilbert. In the second set, Gilbert inserted a squad composed of mostly freshmen, and the St. Mary's "Flames" came back to win

by a score of 15-10. In the final set, the Peru varsity came back out and took the set 15-12 to win the match.

The Bobkittens fell behind 11-2 in the first set against hosting Wesleyan, but battled back before falling lHl. Red-hot Wesleyan went on to win the second set and the match, 15-10, leaving Peru's record at 1-1.

"We actually played better against Wesleyan, but we just got too far down too early," Coach Gilbert said.

"We looked real good at

times, but we were too sporadic and lost our concentration. Once this team realizes its true potential, we could be very good." Gilbert singled out Danelle Warner, Laura Pollman, and Julie Brinkman as turning in outstanding performances.

Peru State will next host Dana before travelling to Seward for a triangular with Concordia and Kearney State. The Bobkittens will host Tarkio and Doane in a triangular Sept. 26, and will take on the Midland ''A" and "B" teams at Peru Sept. 27.

This dropped the Bobcat's per-game average to 281 yards, ahead of only Kearney State and Midland in the district. (Hastings leads district 11 with a 382.5 per-game average.)

Letters to· Editor

I, as an officer in the Peru State College Circle-K club would like to address myseli to those of you who purchased refreshments from our concession stand at the Septerqber 23 football game. Due to an unfortunate trick of fate, there were only three people working at the concession stand. As was pointed out at our last meeting, three people cannot do the job with the high degree of efficiency that the task requires.

As Editor of the Pedagogian one of the most important points that I would like to leave with all of you is to attend Homecoming 1978. I urge you all to stay on campus this weekend and play an active part in making this day a success.

This year's theme is "Remember When'; and how can we cherish these memories if we spend the day at home? The purposes of Homecoming are to invite alumni back increase school pride and unity and show o~ overall. support of _::'i:>eru St~te. We have scheduled a coffee ·hour in the morning, a football game with the Benedictine Ravens at 2 p.m. During halftim~ of the ballgame there will be a Bandarama.and also the crowning of this year's royalty; A parade is set for the · mo~ning beginning at 10:45 with many organiz~t1ons and bands having entered it. Sapphire will play in t.he Cafeteria from 10 p.m. to 2 a.m. to conclude a busy 16 hour dav.

I would personally like to welcome all alumni on campus and suggest that they return soon to the "Campus of 1,000 Oaks". Much time and work has been spent making it the success that I am sure it will be. So let's all join in and make this Homecoming one that will not .be easy to forget.

Concordia ··Ties in Final Moments

The old saying that a football game is not over unW the final gun sounds was proven to the Peru State Bobcats last Saturday night by the Concordia Bulldogs in a thnlling 20-20 tie at Seward.

The tie leaves the Bobcats at 1-2-1 for the year going into next Saturday's homecoming game against ~enedictine, 2 p.m., in the Oak Bowl. ·

It looked like Peru had broken a two-game winless streak as the Bobcats held a 10-7 lead with 22 seconds to · play. But on first down and three yards to go for the score. Bulldog quarterback Lorenzo Nicholson covered the distance and kicker Mike Rieth added the point after to cut the lead to 20-14.

Everybody in Concordia Stadium knew the Bulldogs would go for the onside kick in an attempt to regain possession of the ball. Peru State Head Coach Jerry Joy had all 11 Peru players grouped between the Peru 20 and 40 yard lines.

Sophomore Rick Neubauer caught the first scoring toss of the game and of the year on an eight-yard play in the first quarter.

Defensively, sophomore Ed Connelly again led Peru with 14 tackles.

The Benedictine Ravens are 3-1 for the year after last weekend's 41-6 romp over Friends University. Peru won the contest at Atchison, Kansas, last season 14-6, one of the few blotches on the Raven 1977 record which included a post-season appearance in the Boot Hill Bowl.

Volleyball Team Holder Aims at Rushing Record onWinning Track

The Peru State Bobkittens got back on the winning track with a victory over the Dana College ViQueens at Blair. The Bobkittens take on Wayne State College in the annual Homecoming contest this Friday, Oct 6 at i p.m. in the Peru gymnasium.

Dana's hope for revenge for an earlier defeat was dashed as the Bobkittens won in three straight sets. Peru State whipped the hosts 15-8 in the first set, blasted them 15-4 in the second set, and shook off a brief concentration lapse for a 15-11 game-winning margin in the

finale. The win raised the Bobkitten record to 5-4 going into Tuesday night's game at Creighton University in Omaha.

According to Coach Pat Gilbert, all six Bobkitten starters played well and earned praise. Starting for Peru State this season are Danelle Warner, senior from Chester; Julie Hartman, senior from Douglas; Desi Kline, senior from Malvern, Ia.; Laura Pollman, sophomore from Wymore; Julie Brinkman, sophomore from Palmyra; and Diane Armknecht, sophomore from Talmage.

Alvin Holder, Peru State Bobcats' sophomore running back from Tampa, Fla., is well on his way to setting a school single-season rushing record with six games remaining.

· Only 5-10 and 180 pounds, Holder's blazing speed and powerful legs could make him the first 1,000-yard rusher in the school's.history. He has gained 505 yards on 96 carries irt the Bobcats' first four outings and needs only 27 4 yards in the next six games to break Barry Reed's 1973 record of 779 yards.

Holder is one of the nation's leading running backs with a 126.3-yard average per game. His high was in the season opener when he charged for 165 yards. Ironically, Holder has yet to score his first touchdown as - a Bobcat despite his 100-plus yards per-game average. He is also the second leading receiver on the Peru State team with six catches for 87 yards. Holder is leading Peru State in total offense with 592 yards (rushing. plus pass receiving) for an average of 148 yards per game

PAINTBRUSH WIELDING Circle K members

Sheryl Schultz and Jonell Kotouc change the benches in the quadrangle from forest green to Peru Blue. Circle K furnished the labor for the public service project which later is to include the benches at the dormitory Complex. Maintenance furnished the paint. Miss Kotouc said each bench takes about 30 minutes of work.

Circle K paints benches

One of the projects currently under way on campus is the repainting of our campus benches. Credit for this task can be given to the Peru State College Circle-K club.

Sheryl Shultz is the President of this club.

Circle-K in recent years has contributed to the beauty of the campus in many ways, The benches are only one

example and the campus marquee donated by the club is another.

Circle-K is the college branch of the International Kiwanis club. It is a service organization with helping those on the college campus and in surrounding areas in mind. The regular meetings are h~!d on Tuesday evening at 5:30 in the We~t Dining Room of the Student Cent€r.

_EXCUSE ME ...

By neth Propst

As a journalism student it is my duty to print information that is important and should be known by the students at Peru State College. I am obligated to writ0 in an unbiased manner in order to present the f.acts to you. It was my contention that, the administrative start would rem.ain unbias<:'d and strive for the protection of all '."itudent's Rights.

About two weeks ago I went to Mr L. David Eaton, Director of Residence Life and asked him for information on a student susµension case. He refused to. release information on the grounds that he and his office are obligated to keep information confidential.

I contend that the right' to a fair and impartial hearing is one of our rights. I contend that anyone is innocent un\il proven guilty beyond a shadow of a doubt. l also contend that it is not only my duty but 'Mr Eaton's and Dr. Apilado's duty as well, to attempt to extinguish rumors which could endanger a fair and impartial heatjng or prejµqice any Commission member against a student being brought before the SAC.

Little effort was m;ide on this student's behalf \:Once ming these points. Ad.ministrc1tors were worried about the image of the college, as well as their own images, when their main con~ern should have been to the student.

After )Jeing given the run-around by Eaton and Apilado I sought information elsewhere. I appz:oached Mr Roger Flanders, Director of Institutional Relations. He made a sincere ;ittewpt to get me.anything he cpuld. F)anders called m;e with th~:statement that appeared in the last Ped. I thank ·him·for 1-ii~•time and trouble.

Dorm residents ride

Residents of ClavburnMatbews had.a hayrack ride and picnic last month in an effort to become better acquainted with their neighbors. The group rode around the outskirts .of Peru and enjoyed a chilly hour of fun.

_ Mike Dambrosia was ·the driver of the pickup used in the ride and it was mueh appreciated by all.

After the ride, the fungoers

picked up food already prepared by Food Services and ate the meal at i'1eal Park. About 20 persons took part in the meal that consisted of hamburgers, hot dogs, buns, chips and punch.

This event was partially paid for out of dorm fees and also the student lunch program. Fut:.ire events will be announced when they have been planned.

! And thanks to Terry Gilliland I was' informed of the hearing -on October 23 in which appeal of the suspension would be heard. As a member of the SAC, Gilliland investigated the case very thoroughly. I thank him for his concern for all PSC students' rights and the proper use \lf. the Due Process Sy~tern. He showed me that lawyers aren·t the only ones who stand up for students anymore.

I commend the other administrative and staff .members of the Commission. Most of them. were willing to,.. hear all information, question, and correct any injustites.

I must, however, criticize the Student Representatives. I was disappointed that so few questions anµ comm~nts were made by them. YOU are OUR representatives on the SAC and I ask you to represent us.

it has been called to my attention that ceri;ain SAC members feel that I, Kent Propst, sports editor for the Ped, and other guests may have been disruptive during, the hearing. Speaki,ng for myself, if you feel I wa~ disruptive I invite you to contact me and review the tapes with me. I ask you to show me where and how I was disruptiv~.

In conclusion, I was very proud when the ~tatement "nobody won. and nobody lost'' was made. Jus_tice was served. The student was punished and a conflict in the Student Handbook was resolved.

1 was proud to see people getting Jnyo1vea even wnen u meant putting their own reputations at stake. I wiis pleased to see people realizing a mistake and being ·willing to reverse an original decision. This is an ability many people lack.

There seems to be a parking problem a Peru State and it is time that a solution be Students are not parking straight in p stalls and are leaving their cars in places they shouldn't be. The space that this hap parking is taking up could be used by mor and help rid us of this overcrowding.

From what I have learned about surrou· colleges they have similar parking problems:i also use ticketing as a method of stopping:· problem. I know per~ons at UNL who walk:. blocks just to reach their dormitory and we in Peru don't realize just how lucky we are t so close to classes.

The Board of Advisors for the Outstanding young women of America Awards Program· announced the state winners for the 1978 edition of OUTSTANDING

YOUNG WOMEN OF AMERICA. The winners include: Mary Margaret Stevenson, Nebraska City; and Jonell Kotouc, Milford, Kansas.

The Outstanding Young Women of America Program is designed to honor and encourage exceptional young women between the ages of 21 .and 36 who have distinguished themselves in their homes, in their professions and in their communities. Accomplishments such as these are the result of dedication, service, and leadership - qualities which deserve to be recognized and remembered.

This is the goal of the many leading women's or-

ganizations, college alumni associates and public officials who nominate deserving y_oung w9µien to participate m the program. Serving as chairman of the program's Advisory Board is Mrs Dexter Otis Arnold, honorary president of the General Federation of Women's Clubs.

_The women listed, along with approximately 12,000 fellow Outstanding Young ~Women of America from across the United States, will

be presented in the prestigious annual awards volume.

From fifty-one state winners, the Ten Outstanding Young Women of America will be chosen. The ten national winners will then be honored at the annual awards luncheon to be held this fall in Washington, D.C. Miss Kotouc is a senior this year at Peru State.

FORMER EDITOR of the Pedagogian, Kent Propst, was named Sports Information Director of Peru State College. Propst, a Junior, is also Sports Editor for the Pedagogian this semester.

The Culver-Stockton homecoming was not a happy one last Saturday.

In the case of Dixon vs.

Prior to the hearing, the student should be notified in writing of the charges against him,. including a summarv of the evidence and witn~sses used in determining the charges. Although there is. no specific length of notice, the student should be allowed - according to the number of witnesses and degree of conflict over the evidence - sufficient time to prepare an adequate defense.

The student should also be notified before the hearing that he is entitled to be represented at all times during the proceedings by a person of his choice. The representative may be anyone within or outside the academic commun\ty, \ncluding legal counsel if the student wishes.

At the hearing both the student and the member of the academic community bringing charges (or their representatives) have the right h testify, to examine and cross-examine witnesses, and to present documents and other evidence relevant to ·the case. The student, however, should not be required to testify against his \vishes.

A full record or transcript of the hearing should be taken, with identical copies made available to the l)earingpanel, the.administration and the student. The findings and conclusions of the hearing panel should also be in writing and copies made available for the student and administration.

Upon conclusion of the hearing, the right of ap~al rests solely with the student. The panel for the appellate hearing should either affirm, modify, or reverse the decision of the original panel; they .should not increase any penalty already imposed by the first pa11el.

This united effort on. the part of everyon~ in the Theatre DepartTI].ent and the Peru Players is the reason why, although we lack quantity of resour~es (people and mon~y) here at Peru, we.are able. to enjoy some .of the finest collegiate theatre in the midwest.

Headstart will raffle· afghan

By Danelle

Warner

"Headstart is having an afghan raffle this year to help with the purchase of CB radios for buses used to transport the children," said Mrs Fischer, Headstart instructor.

The drawing will be held on December 9, 1978, with tickets selling for $1 each. PSC students are urged to help support the Headstart program by purchasing the raffle tickets from any Headstart parent.

Alcohol policy needs support

By C. Russell Mittan

Student representatives from the Board of Trustees of Nebraska State Colleges have asked for PSC's support in obtaining alcohol privileges on the State College campuses. "I think it should be given a trial run," said Kirk Ochs, Student Governing Association President, "and I hope to accomplish this with surveys and student opinion polls which I've already begun work on." Ochs also said that the attitude of the Board is, "Generally favorable."

According to Ochs, there will be restrictions by the college respecting all :lebraska state la\vs, including the legal drinking age, and also regarding designated areas of consumption.

Joe Primm, a freshman class officer l!ving in Delzell Hall said, "I think alcohol should be allowed in the dormitory facilities with certain provisions by the college. but it definitely shouldn't be- allowed outside the rooms."

Ochs said that what the representatives need are let-

ters regarding the consumption of alcohol on cam pus with imposed restrictions, written by students and parents of students, addressed to the Board of Trustees of t-,;ebraska State Colleges, East Third Floor, Room 334, State Capitol Building, Lincoln, Nebraska, 68509.

Ochs also expressed that one of the key factors in obtaining this goal will be the serious participation of students in the surveys and opinion polls.

Student Senate

By Linda Henley

The Student Senate is electing a new Senator-at-Large to replace Sheilla LaMounta in, who resigned a couple of weeks ago. Anyone interested in the position should attend the next regular Student Senate meeting and let his interest be known. Other topics discussed were:

A ski trip during the first week of January in Brecken-

ridge. Colorado. Anyone is welcome and the cost 1s $235.00; The calendar for next semester has been completed; A new lunch ticket system for next semester was proposed: and the ne•N student code was discussed but no action was taken.

The Senate meeting was held in Patti George's office because there was another meeting already in the West Dining Room of the Student Center.

of a few of them.

How about the suspension of certain students? It affects us all either directly or indirectly. Or, how about the broken glass in the front door of the Administration Building? That does very little to improve the outlook of Peru to prospective students! Or let us look at all of the problems at Delzell. I would be angry if disturbances in my hall kept me awake till five in the morning. These are infringing on the resident's right to study and sleep. Maybe we prefer to sit back and let someone else solve all of our problems. Our administrators and faculty have many other important items to attend to rather than being called in to solve problems at the dorms every week. I am curious over the lack of enthusiasm shown about the contest set up so clubs and groups could paint the windows in the cafeteria. First place paintings would win 30 pounds of ham but very few groups showed interest in this. Why only a little interest in this when it is a respectable challenge? Maybe we should try to

Cats end football season· with win , I -.

The Peru State Bobcats marked themselves as a team of the future with a convincing 45-6 romp past Doane College in the season finale for both teams in Peru's Oak Bowl. An explosive aerial attack and a rock-hard defense paved the way past 6-4 Doane in the final contest for ten Peru seniors.

The 1978 Bobcats finished at 5-3-2. The last time Peru State had a winning football season, John F. Kennedy was the President and Peru was referred to as "Peru State Teachers College."

The 'Cats have suffered through 15 losing seasons dating back to Jack Mclntire's 1962 squad that finished 5-2-2.

Coach Jerry Joy saw his veteran defense hold the Doane Tigers to 30 rushing yards in the cold and windy Oak Bowl Saturday, and limit the Tigers to 88 total yards.: Meanwhile, the passing arm of Niel Laxdal amassed 237 yards on 12 of 22 passes, and the sophomore

from Lakeland, Fla., connected with standout wide receiver Roosevelt Brown for three touchdowns on passes of 25; 46, and 41 yards. Peru outgained Doane by a whopping 390 to 88 yards.

Meanwhile, the Peru rushing attack was having a "sub-par" day, netting 153 rushing yards. As usual, sophomore running back Alvin Holder was the key, gaining 94 yards on-22 carries before setting out most of the fourth quarter as the Peru reserves cleaned up.

The 45-point outburst was Peru's high scoring total for the season. The six points by Doane was the lowest point total ·allowed this season. The win was particularly pleasing to the Peru seniors, who had not beaten Doane in the previous three years including last year's 35-6 loss at Crete.

The big win came. on the heels of Peru's disappointing 34-7 loss to fourth-rated Northwestern Iowa last ·week. Doane was coming off an upset win over 10thranked and previously unde-

feated Hastings.

Ten seniors ended their careers at Peru State. All ten started Saturday, including offensive linemen Mark Johnson, center; Bob Hruby, guard; Dan Navrkal, tackle; and Rick Spears, tight end.

Defensively, senior starters were tackles Mike Larsen and Tim Schaefer; end, Kent Coleman; .and backs Bill Pursley, Ken 'Denning, and Otis Samuel.

The important thing ap~ pears to be the yotrth Coach Joy will return at the skill positions - there were no senior running backs or quarterbacks; the receiving corps will return intact except for Spears, who shared time with freshman Jake Knight; the top six linebackers are underclassmen; the defensive end and middle guard spots will be filled by returnees; and a number of defensive backs saw considerable action this season on a team that set a Peru record for interceptions.

·The kicking game should be solid in the future, wHh the return of: extra point

Grapplers begin s

specialist Dan Todd, a junior who successfully converted 23 of 26 PAT's including a school record 19 consecutive extra points; field goal and kickoff ace Kevin Niday, sophomore, who accounted for 21 points this season; and punter Terry Hinkle, only a freshman.

The Bobcats scored 215 points this season, and 211 came from underclassmen. Roosevelt Brown ended the season as the top scorer with 54 points on nine touchdowns followed by Alv1n Holder with season TD's for 42 points.

Laxdal finished the season with 1015 passing yards, and tied his own school record for pass completions in a season with 63. In his two seasons at Peru, he has passed for 2013 yards.

Holder was the big story this season. The lightningquick halfback gained 1145 yards rushing, shattering the old Peru record by 366 yards. Holder accounted for 1341 yards total offense (rushing, receiving, and kickoff returns).

Several Bobcats named to NAIA team

Three Peru State football players were named to the District II (Nebraska colleges) All-Star team and another nine were honorable mention in the final National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics District II football report for 1978.

Record-breaking running back Alvin Holder was named to the District II backfield. Holder gained 1145 yards this season, good for 14th in the nation, and led the district until the final day when Wayne State's Bob Barry beat him by 16 yards.

Holder is only. a freshman in eligibility. The Tampa,

Fla., product set school records in not only rushing yards but carries (227) and'· rushing average (114.5). He was also the second-leading pass receiver and scorer for Peru.

Ken Denning, senior defensive back, was another Bobcat named to the team. Ken had a super year - he led Peru in pass interceptions with four (this Peru team set a school record for interceptions), tied for third on the tackle chart with 74 stops, and - surprisinglywas sixth for the Bobcats in total offense.

Apunt returner a holder for extra point and .d goal

attempts, Ken amassed 132 yards, passed for one touchdown, and scored a two-point conversion. The Lakewood, Colo., captain was named "District Defensive Player of the Week" in Peru's 21-21 tie with eventual bowlwinner Chadron State.

Bob Hruby earned a spot on the all-star offensive line at guard. Bob started the 1978 season as a defensive tackle, but when injuries slimmed the offensive line ranks Bob went back to the offensive line. His presence paved the way for Holder's feats as well as teammate Marvin McGill, who gained 704 yards, and quarterback Niel Laxdal, who found enough time to complete a s<:hool record-tying 63 passes. Bob is a four-year starter from Comstock and a graduate of Ord High School.

Four Bobcats were namect honorable mention offensively. They include Roosevelt Brown, Mark Johnson, Marv McGill, and Niel Laxdal.

Brown was responsible for setting a number of records at P.eru this season. The Tampa, Fla., sophomore wide receiver was also named honorable mention last season. Rosey ranks third nationally in punt returns with a 15.8-yard averabe per return and set a Peru record in punt return yardage with 253 yards. He also set a season touchdown reception record with eight.

Mark Johnson finished his career as a captain for Peru this year. The starting center, he was another one responsible for Holder's rushing mark. Johnson, .Jrom Columbus, Ohio, lettered all four years at Peru. He has also been a standout baseball player for the Bobcats.

Marv· McGili, junior fullback from Brandon, Fla., gained 704 yards this season including game highs of 140 and 105 yards. A powerful blocker, Marv .is a strong runner with a good breakaway speed (he has had the longest runs from scrimmage for Peru the last two seasons - 52 yards in 1977, 63 yards in 1978).

Niel Laxdal is another repeat to the h0norable mention list in only his second year. The sophomore quarterback from Lakeland, Fla. tied his own season record for pass completions with 63. Niel has. thrown for 2013 yards in his two years at Peru.

The Peru State College wrestling program/will be. going through a rebuilding year under first-year coach Blaine Gorney. The Bobcats open the season December 1 at the University of Nebraska - Omaha Invita tionaL '

The once-powerful Peru State wre~tling program will start with only two leUermen on the squad from last season's team that went 0-11 in dual meets. That team finished the season with only four members competing. Lost from that squad is AllAmerican Mark Yori, who set a Peru record with 112 career wins. Yori is now coaching in his home state of Pennsylvania.

Gorney will bring some impressive credentials to Peru. Last year at Luther College in Decorah, Ia., his wrestling squad finished in the top twenty among NCAA Division III schools. Gorney was one of seven finalists for the "Rookie Coach of the Year" award from the collegiate wrestling magazine "Amateur Wrestling News."

Prior to coaching at Luther, Gorney was head coach at Royalton (Minn.) High School.

The Bobcats will play host to two meets this season, both in January. The Dana Vikings will come to Peru for a 7 p.m. matchup on Wednesday, January 10, and the 'Cats will host powerful Kearney State on Friday, January 19 at 6 p.m.

The matmen will compete in a number of tournaments this year beginning with the UNO Invitational. The team will also travel to the Northwest Missouri State Invitational at Maryville, Mo., December 8 - 9; the Dana

Five Bobcats were named honorable mention on the defensive team. Linemen Kent Coleman, Mike Larsen, and Ed Connelly, and linebackers Bill Purslev and Jon Orton were selected by the district coaches (who are the judges) for honorable mention.

Coleman is a four-year starter for Peru who has earned eight athletic letters. The senior from Oakland, Ia., was in on thirty-three tackles from his defensive end position this year.

Larsen, a senior from Har, lan, la., was an all-district selection last year at offensive tackle, but was switched to defensive tackle this season. He was in on 48 tackles including five quarterback sacks this season and was named "District Defensive Player of the Week" for his performance in Peru's 42-14 win over Yankton, S.D.

Connelly is a two-year starter at Peru as a sophomore. He was the second-

The senators all seemed to agree that the State College are functioning satisfactorily at the present and there would be no reason for a merger.It was agreed that they hope that we never see such a change need to take place.

Likewise, the girl's team is a lot of fun to watch with a

As for next semester, I'm sorry to hear of so many not planning to return. To you 1 say good luck in

Maintenance and cleanliness were the main topics of a meeting at Morgan Hall Decembef 5.

,'resident Tangeman, Dr.

Esther Divney, Pr. Apilado, David Eaton, Patty George, Mr Middle and _Kirk Ochs were all present to answer questiQns of Morgan Hall residents.

"I have heard some say, do I care?" sald Dr. Tangeman. "Does the faculty care? Ye~, we do care about the students," added "rangeman. "It is because of them that we exist." He also said the two main purposes for holding these meetings were to listen to the students' ~ompl•ints and ·to explain the g$,ls that the administration is trying to accomplish.

One of the main_ topics was the cleanliness of the dorm. Have you ever taken a shower with a boxelder bug? asked one student. Another questioned him_, Do you know what it is like to shower in ankle deep water? Many questions_ were _centered

around why the bathrooms and hallways of Morgan Hall aren't kept cleaner.

The slow response of maintenance men was al.so a problem which br9ught up much discussion. It ·seems that many residents have clogged sinks, torn screens or broken doors. They haye

:reported these problems ,but :,have as of yet seen little action.

A question was asked eoncerning the dut)es of the resident assistants of the dorm. Eaton said that their primary duty i_s discipline. They also have to do paper work, inventories, and process work orders as a representative to the administration and also a resource person.

Most residents understand that the maintenance and cleal}ing personnel !!lilY be understaffed and that there is not enough time in the day to do what must be done. Is it too milch to ask for c:Iean and healthy living conditions as long as you are paying fees to live in CQl!ege housing? We feel it isn't!

Bill .would raise drinking age .

PSC students under 21 years of age would have their drinking privilege taken away if a bill introduced last week passes the Nebraska legislature.

The bill, introduced by Sen. Ralph Kelly of Grand Island-, would raise the legal drinking age for all Nebraskans to 21.

Kelly, who expressed confidence that his bill would ~ss this sessiqn of the legislature, seems to have support from senators represen4Pg Southeast Nebraska who met on the PSC campus in

late November to discuss issues likely to be ·decided in the , current legislative session.

The four senators, George Burrows of Adams, Calvin Carstens of Avoca, Jerome \Varner of Waverly,·and Nelson Merz of Falls City, gen· erally agreed in November that the drinking age should be raised to 21. Warner said, however, that he could see ··a practical problem in raising the drinking age" because it would deny those already 19 th~ privilege they had been granted earlier.

Wiezorek said he belie\ed his Work at Peru would give him broader experience in public relations and that it would be a "great job. possibly the best I've ever had."

Joining Wiezorek as a new PSC employee is his secretary, Jackie Williams. Ms Williams. a Southeast Nebraska native and former PSC student, was hired late last December.

The American Heart Association is sponsoring a special course in CPR (Cardiopulminary resusc)tation) which will be offered this year for people who want to become certified. It is almost necessary for everyone to be aware of the importance of this class. In emergency situations, if CPR is applied within four minutes, approximately 90% of the victims of cardio-pulminary attacks can be saved.

The first session of this course will begin on Feb. 26, 1979. The tuition includes cost of materials used, so there are no extra expenses.

Dear Editor:

For a long time there has been a pet name for a residence hall where many fine individuals dwell. The name can be foun4 · down town in the local tavern, being spread like a social disease. Many people claim that it is the worst dorm in the State College system

Let us not forget many fine ·people have dwelt in. this dorm since iµ; conception. The dorm is known as Delzell, affectioncitely known to those that live there as "the Zoo." Now my prime gripe is the fact that no recognition has been given to the fact that the hall has gone through some miraculous changes, This last semester the entire dorm has taken on a new appearance This new look is making- it a more decent ·place to live. Living conditions have also changed due to the fact that many of the past troublesome occu: pants l)O longer dwell in the hallow~d halls of the Zoo.

I am really looking forward to an exciting semester and the opportunity to be editor of your paper. I am always willing to hear your comments and criticisms in an effort to improve the quality of the paper. To get in touch with me write to Mathews 34A via campus mail. I would really like your ideas and suggestions so give me a buzz and we'll .see what can be done!

As a freshman at PSC, I was very disappointed in the[ living conditions of Delzell Hall first semester. After a few3 short weeks, I no longer wondered how it got its'~ nickname: "The Zoo." ·

Were the halls safe to walk alone after dark? Only if y~i · had a shaving cream fetish. Graffiti was made a snap by;: letting the dirt and grime build up on the walls so thick', that you could write your name in it. To this date, I recall'. the basic hygienk aids that I used to take with me to the); showers; shampoo, bar of soap,. towel, and a can of lysolJ

Then came the second semester. I walked into the:;' familiar building, looked down at the floor, and saw, not} the same old scuff marks, but my reflection in the shine of~ new wax. This was too much! I checked the restroomsi, only to find that, they too, were spotless. To top it all off,}f the walls were almost ivory white. After checking the sign'~ outside the buiiding to make sure I was in Delzell, I move~ my things into the swank bachelor pad on the second floor.~

Who was responsible for this miracle? Well, to start; with, a new janitor was given to Delzell Hall. As far as,,· cleanliness and appearance, Delzell made a 200 per cent: improvement over the first semester, thanks to the saviort [new janitor]. _'!

Also, the mood and atmosphere had improved a grea deal. With the innovation of floor government, and a tri of new understanding and caring RA's, I enjoy living i the 'Zoo' this semester and plan to continue living there.

A cartooning workshop is now. being held on Monday eveiilngs at the Auburn High School.

The workshop is taught by Paul Fell, PSC's assistant professor of art. The class started Monday, January 15, from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. continuing until March 5.

The final registration date was January 22, according to Mrs Wilson, head of the Continuing Education De· partment. The one credit class may be taken as a con· tinued education department class, costing $12.00 or as a college credit costing $17.00.

Fell said he plans on covering characterization, comic.al cartooning, editorial car· tooning, gag and panel cartooning and he will teach different skills used in various types of cartooning.

Fell plans on grouping the students' cartoons together to form a display or a version of Sifting Sands where the group would sell cartoons for a small amount. "I feel it would be good public rela• tions for the college," said Fell.

"Approximately 20 stu· dents are presently enrolled in the class," said Mr Fell. ''There is a cross section of people varying anywhere from college stud<;nts to people who just want to take it for fun or education."

WinterFest i"979

~interFest 1979 has come and· gone and in my op1mon 1 would rate it a success. Sure, there could have been. more studen! participation and cooperation but that 1s always easier said than done

The disco last Wedpesday night'~as weH attended and I_ believe that most of us who were there enjoyed the pizza. pop and music.

Thursda~ ,we had a pie-eating contest during dinner and although I missed seeing it I am sure it was great to watch. Later that night bQth the men's and women's basketball teams played on the Peru home court and fan attendance was commendable. The girls played qmte a game and their final fally fell just two points _short as .Doane Colleg~ won. Good job girls! I just hope that the _rest of Peru State is as proud of you as I am. ·

To add to the night's excitement Danny Shouse set an .all-time scoring record when Peru hosted Bellevue. I think the entire team played their hearts out to win the game for themselves and all persons associated with Peru. Fan support was just great and I can honestly say that I was Proud to be a Bobcat that night. Danny also received a plaque from Coach Joy and I am sure all of you were as happy as I was to see Joy back in public eye. Congratµlations Danny! I know I won't forget your record setting shot and I doubt if many of us will for quite a while.

The di,sco ui Delzell may hav~ been one of ·the disappointments of the _weekend but let us remember that it is not necessa~ily the fault of those who planned 1t. More student pa_rtic1pat1on was needed and I am as guilty as the next person<for not attending this particular event. · , · ·

Another thought to .PQnd~r "7.Jiave y9u ever· tried to play softball in snow that is'il.~r one foot deep? Well, I hadn't until lastSaturday and I assure you that other .than the fact thatI nearly troze- it was a good time. Everyone was 011t there on the ball diamond to have a good time and I think; we all did.

Thank you, Student. Set)lite, You put on q~te a weekend and I hope you try itag:lin soo~. You_ are to be commended for you_r efforts and I am taking this opportumty to.thank the organization for myself and Just maybe for the entire school.

Rise up' Rise up and be h~rd! Prove Uiat apathy isn·t one of the noticeable traits of students at PSC. Take a stand·and make it count!

The drinking age controversy is one matter which students should be concerned with and get involved in, no matter what your opinion is.

Senator Ralph Kelly of Grand Islanli, for the third year in a row has introduced a bill into the legislature in an attempt to raise the legal Nebraska drinking age to twenty-one. Fof those already 19 or older, sit back, relax and have another drink_. LB221 has a grandfather clause which would enable those already of age to continue drinking. But those who turn 19 after the bill becomes Jaw (if it does) would no longer legally be able to drink in Nebraska bars.

Be advised, however, the c~nces !O()k excellent this year for Senator Kelly's biU to go through. Regent Robert Prokop from Wilber, recently stated that, '_'If I were voting in the legislature, I would vote for it (the drinking age1 to be raised."

BIG DEAL, right? If you're 19 you don't have to worry. You can still go downtown and indulge in the SU.QS..<:-~ ,,, .·. .• ·"·' "a:t',.h1:-but ~t seco~ glance this bill is not· the simple '''!T)ftY~,it:fi~,$t~p~~FdO be, >_. n::~11}:,reli,~1 Q.eavijy on s~µsti~. f :9r inst.mce, in 1971, before the drinking age was changed, 531 alcohol-related ~nage cifr aeci~ents,occurr,ed and by 1977 the total liad reached 986. ·

The Senato! also reports that since 11¥,76 f~ve ~tates . have raised the legal drinking age. · · · ·

Well, Mr Kelly. and fellow student$, itis also true that in some states when the age level was lowered the accident rate also went down. Likewise, Kelly does not reveal that of the 5 state!i which.r~ise<.l their drinking age, two or three _raised itftom 18 to 19.

If this bill is passed, the Student Senate will have to raise the social fees to provide students with many more activities.

For you who were interested in legalizing alcohol in the dorms, you can kiss this idea goodbye for good. The efforts of those in favor of this idea will have been thwarted, as legal drinkers on college campu&es in the state will become the minority. Enforcing the "no alcohol on state property" law would probably be stiffened.

Senator Kelly, in numerous articles states that "this is a step towards a cure for a problem that literally has become an epidemic." A_cure, Senator Kelly, o,r just a sidestep around it? Honestly, do you believe that those over 21 will not buy for minors? Students I have talked with said they always got alcohol from someone older because, as one student put it, "the 19 year olds- were afraid of gettingcaught, so they wouldn't buy."

Sports in the past

The beginning of PSC basketball has a vague background. It is believed to have started in the 1902-03 season, with the Peruvians losing a game 6-18 against Lincoln high school.

Basketball, before the completion of the chapel and gymnasium in 1905, was played out of doors apparently in the Oak Bowl or on the tennis courts where today's T. J. Majors Hall now stands.

Between the first games recorded in 1902, losses came to the Peru teams, until in 1905 when Peru beat Nebraska City, 19-16, in the first game played in the new gym of the Chapel basement.

The construction of the Auditorium in 1922 brought an end to the need of the old Chapel gym, so a swimming pool was built where the chapel had been. The new gymnasium floor was first run from east to west, but in 1828. the stage was torn out and the court was run north tO SOIJth.

BOBKITTEN NANCY P ARJ<ER puts two more points on the boards for Peru despite a close guard by Doane cagers. Doane defeated the 'Kittens, however, 58-56.

PHOTOGENIC Danny Shouse adds two more towards the Bobcats' 81-68 win over Bellevue College. Scoring assistance from teammates Rick Spears [13), Bernie Hajny (10), John Donahue [IO), and Doug Jones [9) made the victory possible. The two points also contributed to Sbouse's all-time individual scoring record at Peru, which now stands at 1,636 points.

Regent Robert Prokop, Ph.D., of Wilber, said he believed the bill is unconstitutional, and that those in favor of LB 304 "just want to give Pottawatamie County, Oa.) a break."

He added that Pottawatamie County traditionally had sent many students to the University of l\ebraska at Omaha when it was a private college, and that he believed this was the basis for the proposed legislation.

"What it boils down to is: How much do you want the state to pay for one individual's education? I think it's going to )1ave a hell of a time getting through," Prokop said.

Dear Readers:

by Beth Propst

Okay' Okay! The wor)d did not end at midnight February 14 as reported m our last issue. No we did not spot alien.beings on radar, .nor did we lea~n of an att~mpted nuclear att~ck. The impending holocaust which pu~ the .entire newsroom into a panic was actually Just aQ_over-reacting editor and assistant trying to fi'rld something to put in an empty space on the front page. ···

Befor~ you thrqw this away thinking the Ped editor totally msane, let me explain the problem to you Maybe then you will better understand why I am about to become the first bald woman with ulcers at PSC.

Most of you haven't any idea how a newspaper is put together or proble_ms that we frequently have, Putting a paper together IS more than typing up a story and then seeing it in print.

First, the editor assigns stories to the staff. Our small staff requires each person to be at six different places at one time and to be able to type a minimum of 300 words per minute. Mick, our photographer is cal~ed on to take pictures of a basketball game, wbile he 1s supposed to photographing a band concert, as he s~oots pictures of the cast of the musical. All of the pictures must be developed within a half hour after they are taken and they along with all stories must be at Nebraska City by 8:00 the next morning. ·

When Ped material arrives at the Nebraska City News-Press, their entire staff drops whatever they are workmg on to do the Ped. But they don't mind since our paper is more important than theirs. ' ·

After our news stories are set in print and our pictures are reduced - we're finished. Oops! Oh yeh. Well. we're not finished yet.

Loneliness ... symptom of

"To Be Alone"

Bill Bartlett

Loneliness it's a cruel but realistic word. To feel alone is to be dying inside. In today's hustle-bustle world ' with aII our variations of life, love and freedom, it's easy for one to feel left out. So if you'ye ever felt condemned you aren't the first or the last.

To be alone -is to lose touch with everything- that means anything to you. You've been nerded and mistreated, vo.u feel that no one understa~ds or cares. For life to have been so unfair so far, it might as well finish you off.

Loneliness it's a horrible feeling liecause it thrives on memories, especially the good ones. It sort of just sits back and waits until the right moment, or when you're the most vulnerable, and then moves in, While; there,· it pierces your mind no end. You become infatuated with the past, all the good times and beautiful memories are · relived. Your mind becomes the screen for a slide show, and the show is your life, flashing images of fondness, in. and out, in and out.

Then comes the harsh reality that it no longer. exists. No more will those memor• ies be repeated in life, they will remain images in your mind, memories and nothing more.

The old adage; "words cannot hurt you" was spoken by someone who slept through life. Words can, and do hurt you,,h°ecause words

Next we throw all of the stories and photos on lay-out sheets, toss all of the ads on at random, they run off the copies; then we're done!

Sertiously, those are the very basic steps but it invQlves a little bit more time than this.

All stories are supposed to be in Nebraska City at least a week before you see the Ped in print. If the News-Press staff has time they will type our stories and ready our photographs for publication. After this is done we have the task of.laying copy and pictures in what we hope is ·an eye-catching and interesting arrangement. We do all our ads, with the help of Pat Osbon, and those too must be arranged on the lay-out sheets.

When we've finally given up hope and think we're done, we pick it up and find that five really important stories were left out' Truthfully, this has happened, When it.does we have to decide what we can hold until the next issue and put together the newspaper jigsaw. puzzle all over again.

' Heaving a sigh of relief and taking a swig of Maalox we give the paper to Chuck Johnson, and the paper is printed. We pick up the copies and deliver them to the campus for -your reading pleasure:- Then the whole process. is started over again. ,

We owe a lot of thanks to the staff in Nebraska City. They're a great bunch of people to work with! Without them, you wouldn't be reading this now. And I'd also like to thank - oh! Sorry, I have to get this to the typesetter so this can be in the paper. Time can be a killer!

Anyway, I hope you understand the time and trouble that we go to so we can get this to you. And besides, I have to go downtown to pick out a wig before the stores close!

Ghosts of the past

art> the end result of thoughts and ideas. And it takes these thoughts, ideas and words, to climax a series of misfo;. tunes that send you hurling into the depths of depression.

You think you've got it whipped, and then a song, picture or word sends you reeling back to the past.

Alas, there is a cure, it can't be drank, prescribed, smoked or read. It simply involves time, to have patience and time is the key. Along with this is the feeling of hope. If you always hope, and keep hoping, it will help immensely. Another aid in this period of "getting your, self together" is to Uve day by day. It is no secret that any one of us could be lying in a morgue tomorrow. So live each day fully, yet be rational about.it.

And if you'll just look around for a minute, you'll find a lot of caring faces, others wanting to help. So if the old blues are really dragging you down, think of something you want, and would enjoy the most and then hope for it. At one time or another all of us are going to be looking at life from the bottom up. So if you're really down or super depressed, just try and improve your faults, become mentally stronger, live life day to day, and have hope. Then soon, you will again be able to smell the rain, hear the sun, and be happy you're alive.

150 attend PSC day

by Deb Moore

Approximately 150 students attended Peru State College Day in Omaha Feb-. ruary 24, according to Jan Wiezorek, College Rel;i.tions Director.

''We can really consider it a success," Wiezorek said, "especially since this is the first time we've done something like this in Omaha."

Wiezorek said eight of the college's academic divisions were represented at PSC Day.

About 50 students in' attendance expressed a definite interest- in PSC, WiezoreK said. "l also heard from Ruth Lachelte that some students she spoke with had already decided to atterid Peru withouf even visiting the campus,'' he said.

An unexpected result of PSC Day, according to Wiezorek, was the interest expressed by PSC alumni located in Omaha in re-establishing that city's chapter of the Thousand Oaks Alumni Association. A dinner meeting to discuss this has been tentatively set for sometime in April, he said.

I extend my warmest congratulations to the entire cast of the musical "Pippin" and to all others involved who worked so hard to make it a huge success. Attendance records were broken, and rightfully so.

To those of you who didn't bother to see it, you really missed the boat this time! And you even had an extra chance, as "Pippin" was postponed due to bad weather.

,Outstanding performances by everyone, including· Pam Frost and Rob McKercher highlighted the show. Perhaps the best drama student Peru has had, senior Rob closed out his college acting career with the lead and did an absolutely fantastic job! Well, Ducky, I guess it's all over but the shouting now. Best

wishes to you! .

The choreography was also excellent, as the cast seemed to slide into their dancing shoes and wiggle Lhe night away. Due to the hard work of Cindy Pursley. and Shari Hoelker, as well as to the many hours of practice put in by the entire cast, the,dancing was well-polished for the most part.

Set construction, costuming and music were very good and showed just how much time and efforl was spent on them. Lighting by Mic Koso, Joe Waters, MaryAnn Mellor, and Anita Faraboni was magnificent - with the opening scene coming to mind.

If as much time and effort are put into the next show, then I urge everyone to see "She Sloops to Conquer'', All we have to do is sit back and watch. They do all the work!

Again, to all concerned, thanks for working so hard for so long to'make "Pippin" a success -it was.

"Pippin" with all its fine acting and singing rates at lhe top - I give you my grade A++.

Attrition is problem

now more than ever

Over 40 percent of the students who enroli in American colleges ancl universities drop out before receiving a college degree, according to a recent press release from the Campus Digest "-Jews.

The problem of attrition is not a new one but it is becoming increasingly painful for the schools. Nationwide college enrollments are ·expected to decline in the ·next 20 years due to the decreasing number of college age people - the post World War II baby boom children have all grown up.

Administrators dislike losing the large amount of dropouts. For them it means more financial problems.

If the colleges were able to cut attrition rates it is feasible that enrollment could be kept level.

New securiJy system possible for library for PSC April 23

This spring, International Food Day will be celebrated as part of "Spring Week".

According to Mrs Mccaslin, the reference room is finished and all· books from the seven hundreds to nine hundreds have been classified, and we are now starting at the zero's. She believes that the Library of Congress system is a big step up and will benefit all who use the library. ·

This is the first major cataloging of the library since it has been in operation and thus l}ives personnel a chance to replace lost and damaged cards. It also provides an opportunity for staff to look over all books in our

collection and value their worth. If books are not up to certain standards they are discarded to make room for better books.

One machine that has been of great help in the switch is an Ohio College Library Center (OCLC) computer system.

PSC choir toured; students conducted

The PSC Choir was on tour from March 7 through March 14, in Falls City, Peru, Johnson and Syracuse.

The d1oir, under the direction of Dr. Edward G. Camealy, perforJ?ed a program of over 25 pieces of various types of music. "We understand that when we go to high schools we have to intrigue the kids," said Camealy. "With that in mind, Perry Biaggi and Bob Svoboda perform bluegrass along with traditional choir

works."

Student conductors were Lori Stortenbecker, Nebraska City, Dee Dettmer, Syracuse, Sharon Bartels, Sterling,d Perry Biaggi, Humboldt, Bob Svoboda, Seward, and Keith Rippe of Elk Creek.

"Student conductors are good for the choir and good for the audience," said Camealy. "The students not only learn how to direct but how to add fresh life and vitality into the ensemble."

·College nurse role changing; Reeves gets promotion I coordinates more programs.-

•1: The days have passed

• •• when you went to the school nurse only because you had a cold. Peru State College Nurse Virginia Miller has c.oordinated many programs that attempt to reach out to both students and area residents.

"Currently the Peru State Health Center holds family planning, well child, mental health and alcohol counseling clinics," said Miller. Dr. David Bass from Blue Valley Mental Health consults Peru students who may ne_ed counseling.

"Going away to college is ci:;rtainly an adjustment per-

iod for many students and this situation coupled with the need for independence often causes problems for some students," said Miller. "You don't have to lie crazy to need help," she said. More and more students are using the mental help service for everything from dealing with relationships to learning how to break away from home, she said.

Miller is also working closely with the Auburn Chamber of Commerce and the Department of Health, Education and Welfare in an attempt to have a physician on hand at the health center

on a more regular basis.

"Recently there is much stress on the need to have proper medical care in rural communities. A physician visiting the health center could help area residents who have health problems as well as students," said Miller.

Another health service extra is the well child clinic which allows mothers an opportunity to have their children checked by a doctor even when the child has no medical problem.

The emphasis is on preventing problems before they occur, she said.

The new Superintendent of Buildings and Grounds at Peru State College is Mr Bill Reeves. Effective February 27 Reaves replaced Marvin Middle, who left last month Bill is no newcomer to Peru State as he has been employed _ here for seven years in the maintenance department~ where he was foreman before accepting his new position.

"The job involves coordinating the efforts of approximately 29 people and trying to get all departments to work together smoothly," stated Reeves. Fred Gfeller is the assistant superintendent.

lVlajors Hall fund drive has begun

Anew fund drive project to purchase Majors Hall at Peru Slate College had its kick-off .with over 30 area c;iai:·:iersons 'and fund-· raise,-s attending a dinnermeetmg on Tuesday, March 20, 1.m the Peru State campus.

Peru Stale College PresiJent Dr. Larry Tangeman addresser! the group and explained that Majors Hall, a little used dormitory, is an integral part of Peru State's new physical education center. That center, now under consfructirm, would have showers, lockers and health center facilities in the adjac:mt '\1ajors Hall. However, renovation of Majors Hall, using designated state funds, cannot begin until the dormitory is purchased from the bondnolders at a cost of $300,000.

"Our goal for the drive is set at $300,0DO," ,;aid Tangeman, who added that the dor~itory could play an important part in the educationol, cultural and recreational activities of citizens th rough out Southeastern :\ebraska.

''In adrlition to its role as a health center, :V1ajors Hall

and the new physical education center will allow Peru State College to improve its service to the people of this area," he said.

Athletic and intramural activities are high on the list of needs to be served. The new center will include three ba'sketball courts and an indoor track. Also under con<;truction is a swimming pool. These facilities will enable the college to host a variety of athletic tournaments and intramural activities. In addition, the center and Majors Hall will allow Peru State College an opportunity io schedule physical education and recreation. classes at an improved level,

LB 549 instructs Peru State to continue its Well Child Clinic for Southeast Nebraskans, and also provides an appropri?tion for a health center, Majors Hall would be renovated into a health center once private money has been raised to purchase it from the bond holders,

Majors Hall is also in a natural setting to serve as a center for outdoor educat10n. The center with adjacent lodging and with woods and fields nearby would be an ldeal facility for preparing college students in outdoor education and recreation careers. Some colleges have felt so strongly about the importance of outdoor education that as part of the graduation requirement, all students must have had instruction and experience in the out - of - doors.

As. a youth hostel. the center would serve the growing number of outdoor enthusiasts who are seeking modest accommodations as they hike, bike, paddle, swim or ski through the area.

And in an effort to better attract business and industry to Southeast Nebraska, the center and M:ajors Hall would enabie the college to host industrial fairs on s

TO THE STUDENT BODY:

Last W.ednesday elections were held for Student· Senate officers and senators. There was a tie for Senat9r-at-Large between myself and Tina Gault. In an ·election where a tie results there are three alternatives possible for determining the outcome of the tie. The first possibility is to allow both parties to hold the position. If this is not a conceivable possibility a revote can be held; or, as stipulated in Peru's Student Senate constitution, a political _committee: from.the Senate can choose between tile tied parties.: ·· This alternative is in theory an adequate means of breaking the tie. I say in theory because unless certain factors are present · this method becomes a very subjective means of breaking the tie. The factors that must be present are an unbiased committee, knowledge of both persons' qualifications and a means of weighing one person's qualifications against another's. When I asked Tim Pethoud how the five member committee chose Tina Gault I was told it was each person's "own preference". It is obvious that the committee was lacking in the essential factors to make this decision since I was never told of their voting or asked for my qualifications.

I do not know Tina Gault personally and in no way am questioning her qualifications to serve as a Senator •At-Large. What I am concerned with is the means by which the tie between us was. broken. I feel that a revote is necessary at this time because of my doubts about the committee: Whether the outcome of the revote is the same as the committee decision or not, is unimportant. What is important is that a precedent is set for future ties.

It is the Student Senate's responsibility to serve the student body as effectively andfairly as they can. This means taking the time and effort to have a revote in the case of a tie or at the very least to have an adequately qualified and prepared coriimittee to choose between the tied parties. ·

Rally against draft to be staged April 30th

EDITORIAL COMMENT:

The Army's top personnel officer has informed Congress that a return to the draft is inevitable.

According to u: Gen. Robert B. Yerks the declining size of the reserve and increasing difficulty recruiting men and women into the active force leave the nation with no other choice. "The only question," says Lt.· Gen. Yerks, "is when."

Until recently such military views were only expressed off the record but increasing Congressional support for registration and the draft· has had a dramatic effect on the Pentagon's position. As recently as December 28th the official Pentagon position was that the all volunteer armed services were in satisfactory condition. But the changing political climate.has encou~a ed.( .military's top officials to reverse their previg

A bq>ad based coalition including the American Civil Liberties Union, the Students for a Libertarian Society, and the United States Students Association will be holding an 'informative rally' on the steps of the Capitol Building in Washington D.C. at twelve noon on April 30th

The United States Students· Association is already distributing buttons calling on youth to "Register to Vote: Don't Vote to Register."

The Students for a Libertariau Society has charged that:

In the hundreds of pages of Congressional testimony on the draft, not one Representative- either for or against conscription - makes any real effort to justify the global commitments that make 2.1 million armed services necessary in peacetime. The SLS, a California based organization, is holding· a .s,erj(;S 9f n_e:ws conferences in major dties and is

organizing a national resistance movement on college campuses.

The Friends Committee on National Legislation has established a Committee Against Registration and Draft which will help coordinate the national lobbying effort in Washington, '

The Director of the Committee on Militarism in Education charges that our alleged need for more manpower is part of the same 'crackpot realism' that led us into Viet Nam. According to Dr. Robert L Rhod~, this 'need' rests on a series of dubious premises:

If the Russians ~tart a conventional war in Europe; if it"doesn't quickly escalate into a nuclear war; if NATO airfields and ports are not destroyed· in the opening battles; and if we can build an enormous naval fleet that does not now exist, then the million men stationed in the Unfted States will be useful in the next war.

Since these premises are clearly absurd, Dr. Rhodes believes that the new call for registration and the draft will increase the power of the Pentagon and cold war tensions, and recreate the bitter campus protests that existe_d in the late '60's and early '70's but will make no positive contribution to our national ~fcurity.

Dear Editor:

Abrief plea for a response. The race for Senator-atLarge in this year's Student Senate elections ended in a tie. According to constitution the winner was to be chosen by a special committee. Members of this committee did not feel they were qualified to make the decision since they knew so little about each of the two candi· dates.

I would like to take this opportunity to \ongratulate Joe Primm and Chuck Mittan on their election as Student Senate President and Vice president, respectively.

Additionally, I would like to express my sincere appreciation to those who supported Craig Marinosky and me during our candidacy.

The competition has ended. It is now time for all of us to work together for the benefit of the PSC student body. I'm certain Craig joins me in pledging total support to Joe and Chuck.

An artist, industrial arts student, teacher and musician were portrayed in the program which was aired on Nebraska Educational Television on Wednesday, April 18 at 8:30 p.m.

Mil.rtinosky, in his initial comments listed his priorities as: keeping the students well informed as to what the senate was doing for them and to keep an open ear to all who needed his help. Davis sighted more specifically the attendence policy of one faculty member he felt unfair, the new housing policy; which he urged students to refuse to sign and differences between student and faculty rates for lunch tickets and on-campus housing as ·major issues -he was concerne.d with.

-Gameroom remodeled

The gameroom in the Student Center should re-open any time with the remodeling and repainting to be completed soon, according to Patti George, director of student activities.

The room has been repainted yellow and tan to replace the circular pattern. There are four electronic machines in working order (three of them pinball machines). The foosball, pool and air hockey tables have been revamped and should be in working GQndition.

Ms. George said she f~lt that it was aoout time to get the gameroom functional to better serve the students. "Broken down machines and soiled tables are not the way to please PSC students who wish to spend time in the room," she added.· Patti would like to remind students that they can purchase T-shirts from the Student Sena.te for $3.50 each and· reminds everyone to hurry because there is a limited number of shirts on hand.

Plans for the future include the purchase of a new television for the TV room.

restrictions and parameters [hat do indeed restrict any unlimited or lavish development in terms of equipment and salaries.

"However,-it is recognized that some of our resources are presently being underutilized and .could be made more effective and fully funr.i.ioning through more intra-in.ter-unit; participation and .cooperation. In. seeking to improve the existing services to students, we .cannot avoid some costs which.are necessary. If the funds can be made available the following suggestions for changes and additions are proposed: " , - that the Bob Inn remain open every day until 10 p.ril.

While the grill would be shut off at the nor.ma! closing time,' sandwiches, , soft drinks, pizzas and microwave items would be available until the 10' p.m. closing.

- that the recently remodelled game room also remain open until 10 p.m. Additional equipment has already been installed and a request has been made to PFM Manager Cliff Nail for food machines to be installed.

- that a wide screen color TV purchased and installed in the Fishbowl, and that the Fishbowl be carpeted for use as a "TV room."

- that additional work study personnel. be made available to provide security for this expanded operation and for student' dances and other campus events.

- that unspecified improvements be made on. the present campus parking situation.

Eaton said the proposed improvements cam1'l' be completed without additional funding and more important, a strong show of student support of the changes. The added expense ot expanding student services, he said, must be warranted by increased use of these services by students.

Meal plans change to 15 or 20 for next year

Changes in the current meal plan will be implemented for the fall semester, according to David Eaton, Director of Residence Life.

There are two meal plans from which a student may choose the 15 meal plan and the 20 meal plan. The.mini plan (15) provides.for fifteen meals of your choice and the maxi plan (20) provides for twent)c meals.

The cost per meal on the 15 meal plan is 30 per cent lower than the 10 meal plan. "With the. 10 meal plan you were getting only 2 meals a day and no. meals on the

weekend., With the. 15 meal plan you are getting .three meals a day, but still no meals on the weekend. It's costing you 30 per cent less to eat with. the 15 meal plan than it did with the 10 meal plan," said Mr Eaton.

The maxi plan provides students with three meals a day Monday · through Saturday and two meals on Sunday. With the 20 meal plan students can receive ·two more meals for just over one dollar. "The difference between the 20 meal plan and the 18 meal plan is that the 20 meal plan is around -$15.00 more, but you're getting 80

meals. In the long run you're coming out cheaper than you did with the 18 meal plan," Eaton said.

According to Mr Eaton, the reason that the change from the 10 aild 18 meal plan is because few people can survive on three meals on the weekend, and most· people want three meals a day. "We also have gotten a lot of positive feedback from students. thanking us for changing from the 1Oand 18 meal plan, because like l said most students want three meals a day and more food on the weekends," Eaton said.

Another dormitory change planned for next fall, Eaton said, is an increase in housing rates. Delzell and Morgan will increase to $301· semester; Centennial Complex,. $357 semester; furnished one-be.droom apartments in. Nicholas, $142-month, utilities paid (two bedroom, $174); and unfurnished one-bedroom apartments at.Oak Hill, $1O3monthr utilities, except electricity paid (twobedroom, $124).

Board rates will also be increased, .Eaton said, and PSC will change from ten and 18 meal plans to 15 and 20 plans. He said one reason for the increase in number of mea!savailable was to make it easier for students to stay in Peru over the weekend Eaton added that the expanded meal plans will cut the student's per-meal cost.

The rain hampered construction during April, but progress is still being made on the new Sports Complex.

Activities to change; 1980 Spring Week

According to Patti George Spring Week didn't turn out as everyone had expected. None of the students showed up for any of the activities. The best turn-out was the car relay race and only three people showed up for that according to Ms.George.

"I don't know if it was the liming. of the activities, or ihe activities .themselves that caused such a smali

turn-out. Maybe it was a combination of both. Next year we are ioing to have a whole new. list of activities. We'.re going to revamp sprinl]; week. "Ms George said." ·

Tree committee meets plans 'for arboretum

Members of the Peru State College Tr.ee Committee met with officials from the Nebraska Statewide Arboretum to discuss plans for the College's inclusion to the arboretum system.

LB304 could be just the thing to solve PSC athletic recruiting problems, according to Athletic Director Jerry Joy, but its legislative progress has been slow. It is presently on general file with the Legislature - out of committee but waiting in the line-up of .legislation t J be debated.

LB304 would allow the Stale College Board of Tr-ustees and Universitv Board of Regents to set requirements for Nebraska residency and establish more than one level of nonresident tuition.

··- Many university ·officials have indicated their support of the proposed bill, and Coach Joy agrees with them that it is very necessary. to pass LB304. "If that bill ,were passed," he said, "I don't know any state college which would benefit more than Peru."

Joy said the fact that Nebraska has a lower population than the states surrounding it made the bill necessary so Nebraska colleges 'Could attract students from those states.

Residency requirements set by the board of trustees could also aid PSC athletic recruitment, he said. Special non - resident tuition rates

2,000 $$ in

could be used in addition to a limited scholarship fund in attracting prospective students. Several athletes currently r~eive double tuition waivers which could be distributed among other students if special non-resident tuition was established, he said.

"I think it's a good deal," Joy said in reference to LB304. "It will help us get more athletes and will increase our enrollment. "I think the state will be moving backward if they don't pass it," Joy said.

PSC President Larry Tangeman agreed with Joy that LB304 would be very good for Peru, but said that even if the bill passed,· there was no guarantee that the board of trustees would use their power to set residency requirements and special non-resident tuition.

Drill team maybe added to PSC hand

The Peru State Bobcat marching band may have an added attraction next year. The band is in hopes of adding a drill team.

.Dr. David M. Edris, director of the band, said-he hopes to get enough girls interested to form a drill ·team.

Dr. Joe Young, Net>raska Statewide Arboretum curator said that Peru State will be discussed al the Arboretum board meeting in May. "Peru State College seems ari ideal site for an arboretum since it has the warmest .climate of any of the sites in Nebraska,'' said Young. That means a wider variety of trees can grow in this area. Young also said the expanding pursuits of the statewide - system call for moee educational resources which are readily available on the Peru State campus. Currently there are 12 approved sites and an additional six more sites under consideration by the Nebraska Statewide Arboretum board.

The academic, year 1978-79 has proved to be one of the finest years in athletics for Peru Slate. i., number of record-setting perfonnances were turned in, fans and coaches alike, are looking forward lo next year in eager anticipation. ·

The football team registered.. its first winning season since 1962, finishing 53-2. The season was highlighted by the performance of freshman Alvin Holder, who rushed for a school-record 1,145 yards. Holder, offensive lineman • Bob. Hruby and defensive back - Ken Denning, all earned honorable mention All-American honors.

The volleyball team finished the season with another winning record. Coach Pat Gilbert's young squad will miss the play of Danelle War.ner, Julie Hartman, Joni Albin and Desi Kline, but will have excellent talent returning when the season opens this fall.

The Bobcat basketball team faced a rugged schedule under a new coach along with a small team. The result was a 6-23 season, but senior guard Dan Shouse rewrote the Peru record books enroute to. earning honorable mention AllAmerican honors. Shouse, wit,p a 28.5 scoring average, and Bernie Hajny were chosen to represent the Nebraska College Conference in the NAIA's firstever All-Star game.

The women's basketball team began the season without a coach. The ensuing 4-17 record was largely due lo the rough early start \vithout a coach. The sQuad lost seniors Julie Hartman and Debbie Craig and should field a fine team. Freshman

Jackie Nixon has the talent to be great before she leaves.

Thus far both the baseball and softball teams are doing well. The baseballers are working to .keep their record above .500 and feature nationally ranked hitters in Mark Johnson, Steve Medinger and Greg Sanders. The softballers have proved they have talent, but inconsistency .and a rash of weather-cancelled games have kept their record at .500.

The track teams have produced their share of highlights, also. Freshman Keith McKim is the new owner of the ...school .highjump record, and is going to be a fine competitor over the next few years. Likewise, Karen '.\iostrom is a talented freshman (she already has earned three letters) who set the women's high jump

record. Big losses to the women's team will be felt by the departure of throwers Barb Rolf and Desi Kline.

· To all the athletes at Peru State, thank. you for an en· tertaining year. Congratulations to all, and let's make next year even better.

(I would like to take this lime to give a personal thanks to the following people for their help 1throughout the season: Coaches Squires, Gilbert, Pitts, Gorney, Hoelker, 1 Gilliland, and especially Jerry Joy, Athletic Director).

Greg Sanders, is batting .385 and has 9 home runs

"It's all in how you hold your tongue,'' may be what Tim Woodruff is thinking as he pitched against Tarkio.
