Mid-week party issue still unresolved Dennis Hearne

S11Hwrl1« ,

No administration action has been taken on the proposed mid-week party ban, although Student Government, IFC, MRC and the Faculty Student Life Committee's Alcohol Awareness Task Force are actively discussing the issue.

Poor attendance in Thursday classes and the problem of alcohol abuse are the focus of the administration's concern with mid-week parties.

Last year, Student Government president Dave Middleton, Men's Residence Life Area Director Steve Hutson and other student representatives drafted a letter to President James Ralph Scales claiming that the banning of mid·week parties was not an effective deterrent to growing student alcohol abuse.

Middleton has been actively mobilizing

fraternity and MRC representatives to produce a viable alternative to possible administration action against mid-week parties.

On Oct. 23, Middleton met informally with fraternity and MRC representatives to discuss possible student solutions.

Four initial proposals were developed at the meeting to be submitted for review by fraternites, the MRC, and ultimately the Alcohol Awareness Task Force, Middleton said.

The representatives at the meeting proposed:

··student awareness of alcohol abuse should be enhanced through providing information as an integral part of fresh· man orientation;

··there should be continuing alcohol awareness education through frater· nities, house organizations and other student groups;

-·a third mid-week party at which no alcoholic beverages would be served could be added to the two parties per. month which each fraternity is currently allowed:

--the fraternities and the MRC should remain committed to serving alternative beverages at campus parties.

Middleton felt although the ad· ministration has reacted positively to student efforts to reach a solution, ex­pedience is desirable.

"It takes a lot to change an attitude," Middleton said. "I think the ad· ministration is listening and they're willing to waitlor us. I hope we can come up with something that is satisfactory for most everyone."

The administration attitude toward banning the parties has be(!n improved by constructive student response, IFC president Bill Camp said. Camp also felt

students could not afford to be indifferent to this issue.

"Although there's been ... no deadline of any kind," Camp said, "I think the parties will be banned if (the students) don't take action."

Both Camp and Middleton voiced concern at student resentment toward the administration's scrutiny of mid· week parties.

Dean of Men Mark Reece, a member of the Faculty Student Life Alcohol Awareness Task Force, stressed no imminent action banning mid-week parties has been proposed.

"The task force discussed the pros and cons of banning the parties, but we've made no recommendations," Reece said.

Reece emphasized the ad· ministration's favorable response to the student's efforts.

(from page one) Broyles, however, said the Carter a!!ministration's

policy reflects indecisiveness. "Carter's policy-makers are constantly surprised at

reverses due to encouragement of good forces." Downes called the Carter administration's actions a

"cowboy attempt of rescue." "My biggest regret," Downes said, "was U.S.

failure to take our European Allies into consideration before ordering the rescue attempt."

When questioned why recent political campaigns may seem to be emphasizing candidate style over substance of programs, each debater cited the media and preoccupation with opponents.

"My candidate (Anderson) has published a 300-plus page platform and has taken unpopular stands, such as favoring gun control. He has also been a leader in Congress for over 20 years," Frey said.

Comparing the three, Frey said, he viewed Anderson as a more substantive campaign figure.

Williard suggests

caution for 1980s

Melanie Welch SIJII.WrltH

The 1970s have been "a decade of good will, good giving and good luck" for Wake Forest finan· cially, but spending will have to be more cautious in the 1980s, John Williard, vice-president and treasurer, said in his statement to the finance committee of the board of trustees.

Wake Forest has established a highly selective undergraduate college due to an unlimited number of qualified applicants.

relationship with the convention, however, this revenue is expected to decline to almost the level of the early 1970s.

In athletics, the deficits incurred during the first part of the past decade have turned into sur· pluses during the second half, Williard said.

As a result, the athletic department gave $100,000 to the building fund for the new music wing (!f the James Ralph Scales Fine Arts Center. With COD· tinued inflation, "this is certainly not likely to happen again," Williard said.

Title IX primarily displayed on the first floor of Reynolda hall, with some pieces in the library, DeTamble auditorium, and, the of· fice of Dean of Men Mark Reece.

In 1962, the governing board of CU, then the Student Union, voted to establish this collection with two objectives in mind: 1) to provide Wake Forest with examples of art of each student generation; and 2) to point out university shortcomings in art and help to establish an art department.

The lyrics of Lowell George's song "Willin"' may not describe the journey of these WF runners, but they do provide an inspirational backdrop for the homestretch.

However, there will be a decline of at least 25 percent in the number of college-bound teenagers because of the predicted decrease in population, Williard said.

The cost of athletic operations has grown with inflation, and the expansion of women's programs as required by Title IX will require large transfers of tuition. There should be an increase of up to $500,000 in funding for women's athletics in the next three years.

' Fewer funds

The committee hopes to rehang the collection sometime this year, emphasizing a historical perspective. Time period, cause and effect, and artistic movement are being considered as criteria for the regrouping.

The collection contains a variety of media, i'il­cluding lithographs, etchings, a handwoven wool tapestry, a piece done on plexiglass and a silkscreen on a white paper bag.

As a result of overwhelming community support, the Winston-Salem Arts Council is expanding throughout the city, especially in the downtown area.

Construction for most of the $20 million "New Dimensions" project will be completed by November 1981. Expansion will benefit the business, institutional and community sectors of the city, Milton Rhodes, executive director for the Arts Council, said.

The Council, Rhodes said, is· an agency for promotion, coordination and development of the arts in Winston-Salem. Involved in every cultural activity in the city, the Arts Council sponsors or supports such activities as the Carolina Street Scene, the WF Artist Series and Little Theatre productions.

In return, community support has been tremendous, Rhodes said, largely due to Winston-Salem's in­stitutions.

The "New Dimensions" project entails three ex· pansion areas: Winston Square, Hanes Community Theatre and the Graylyn concert shell.

Downtown, Winston Square will focus the energy of Winston-Salem's many cultural communities in the city's .center as well as revitalize the financially suffering downtown area, Rhodes said. The Square will. house a. restaurant, theatre, two galleries, classrooms and touring exhibits.

Surrounding buildings will be renovated and a children's play area, plaza and park will be installed.

Anderson

Dilemma: (noun) • a choice or a situation involving choice between equally unsatisfactory alternatives. So says Web­ster's.

As election eve looms menacingly over the nation, many people view their vote as a dilemma. Jimmy Carter embodies incompetence and political incoherence; and Ronald Reagan endorses a simplistic and unrealistic approach to the presidency; and John Anderson • well, hell, he hasn't even got a chance.

Now wait a minute. Recon­sider the alternatives. Should the polls, which place Anderson anywhere between 9 and 16 percent, be the final arbiters of your vote? No, not unless we consider ourselves creations of the media.

Look closely at Carter. Four years in the Oval Office and he has not demonstrated any ability to generate a coherent political philosophy. His actions are determined by short-range considerations - Carter lacks a "unifying vision."

Result general in· competence and sudden shifts in policy. He can't even learn from his mistakes, so he doesn't even deserve your pity.

How about Reagan? He promises to cut our taxes, in· crease defense spending to shore up our faltering in· ternational image and then balance our budget. Sounds great, but can it be done? This utter simplicity and lack of realism evidences itself in certain statements; e.g., "America has an abundance of energy." Has Reagan talked to

Kurt Clawson

any of the experts about what a "finite resource" really is? Has he considered the merits of alternatives? Or must he insist in wallowing in his reactionary romanticism - the longing for the days which can't be.

But perhaps I am guilty of placing too much emphasis on the single action or sentence. What about the consideration of the man and his philosophy?

If you seek this emphasis, take a long look at John Anderson. Proponent of a coherent, consistent political platform and philosophy based on a sober realism, Anderson embodies the intelligence and personal integrity the presidency so badly needs.

The office has become one of . image and personality, and the

media caters to this projection of style rather than substance. A recent survey showed Anderson in a dead heat with Reagan and Carter under the assumption that Anderson had a chance to win.

"Well, if he had a chance, I'd vote for him," has become the rallying cry. Well voter, you,­and not the polls of public opinion, determine his chances.

Intelligence, experience in and with Congress, consistency of political philosophy and realism should not disqualify a candidate. Vote for the man you think will do the best job, not the man who has a "chance."

In a democracy, the majority has not always been right, nor will it ever be. John Anderson deserves close scrutiny before election eve and should come up looking like a winner over Reagan and Carter.

Scott Broyles --. .

Carter foreign policy weak In the conduct of foreign affairs,

it is the responsibility of every American president to analyze and understand not only the personality of Soviet leaders but the historic intentions of the Marxist-Leninist movement.

It is central to the doctrine initially promulgated by Marx that before communism could achieve final fruition the destruction of capitalism either through internal collapse or through military means, as was later maintained by Lenin, must take place.

Any man who aspires to the position of commander-in-chief . need be keenly aware of this tenet of Soviet foreign policy and the threat it poses to western democracies.

Stripped of its ideological euphemisms proclaiming the Soviet mission to create a new world order of socialistic justice and equality, the Soviet Union can best be described as a slave state.

Late of course, President Carter learned that he had been wrong concerning Soviet foreign policy intentions. Such learning is better suited to the undergraduate student of international politics than the commander-in-chief of the armed forces.

squarely on the shoulders of the leader of the free world.

This failure on the part of the leader of the western world to recognize its historic duty to

·combat totalitarian oppression in the name of freedom and human dignity is the reason Alexande~ Solzhenitsyn maintains that the west has already lost the war ·with the east which has been waged since World War II.

He means, of course, the war between ideals, the war between the moral and ethical aspirations of the two sides.

These are the things which give a nation its strength, vitality and determination to persevere in a world full of injustice, inequality and intense power struggles.

President Carter has established a pattern of military weakness, indecisiveness and hesitation. He has failed to assume the position of dignity, moral fortitude and determined strength which is the proud responsibility of the leader of the free world.

The need for new leadership is, desperately, at hand.

I am surprised at your attude of high expectations concerning the RAs' query of our administrators. By now you should be more aware of how things are really run from Reynolda Hall.

By growing so removed from the students, these folks have developed a bad case of tunnel vision and are hard-of-hearing when students' needs are con­cerned.

Title IX

Although this is a delayed response, I hope you will print what I have to say. I have been busy with classwork.

As time went by, I found that they were on sale at K-Mart, Bocock-Stroud and almost every store in Hanes Mall and area shopping centers.

It feels really good as a pre­professional woman here at Wake Forest to realize that our good looks are still our major value in the eyes of our male counterparts.

Law school stifles thinking It was with great disappointment

that'! read your lengthy editorial several weeks ago about Title IX ..

The criticism of Title IX (which requires by law the equal funding of women's athletics, with a few major loopholes, unfortunately)

I felt especially appreciated as something other than a "piece of meat with eyes" when I saw the advert posters for Red Garter: thanks again, guys.

Now I want posters of naked men (with hair to cover the good parts, of course), notin bad taste, just for a major dance, and a calendar for the women's dorm walls of WF playboys. As an undergraduate at Wake, I

was fortunate to have as my major advisors two of the· finest professors and academic coun: selors one could hope fqr.

However, I was perhaps un­fortunate to trust self-given counsel, and to have misdirected ambition.

Against strong opposition from superior minds, I entered WF Law School over a year ago as a 3-3 student.

In case mention of the 3·3 program rings no bells, I should say that it is an ingenious device whereby the Wake undergrad can do away with his senior year and attack the meat of specialization in• law with underdeveloped teeth bared.

I was tossed my first morsel at the Dean's welcoming address to the first year class, where we were told to prepare · for the most challenging and rewarding phase of our intellectual growth.

I imagine the Dean was talking about law school, and not about the enlightening reaction I was soon to have to it, but I must admit to having learned quite a bit in my little more than a year there.

Premise: Wake Forest University's prime asset is its excellence as a liberal arts in­stitution.

Were this taken away we would all be left at a little school whose most salient features would be

athletic teams that enjoy measured success against bigger powers, and an on-campus social arrangement decidedly more ridiculous than sublime.

Premise: law school is for persons who have received a sufficient college education (read liberal arts education, if Wake Forest treads the true Path) and who, with the benefit of intellectual liberality, have decided for some reason to study law.

Conclusion: I regret to say that I don't feel intellectually liberal at present; in fact, I've felt stifled for over a year.

The theory of instruction under which I am being taught has changed dramatically. It is much less an academic discipline, much more a skill being taught here: think like a lawyer. (Query: Do you really want to think like a Ia wyer?)

I would not go so far as to say law school cannot be worthwhile, but I would like to caution that it can turn out to be nasty, brutish and long. Law reading is voluminous and frequently so dry it crumbles in the mind.

Go to law school and you may find yourself repining for some good, meaningful 'literature, or repenting for ever having cursed the study of politics.

Because so much of a law student's time must be spent im­mersed in material that fails to engage the heart or sou!; an outlook based on a sense of futility may

Democrats voted in the thirty-five primaries which led to the Democratic Party convention nominating President Jimmy Carter for a second term.

The ·third candidate, John B. Anderson, is self­nominated and is running. without a party organization.

Despite the significant voter input, the campaign is characterized by widespread voter dissatisfaction with the choice which is offered on the Nov. 4 ballot.

To date the closeness of the election, predicted by all national opinion surveys, indicates the continuing lack of job security in the office of the presidency.

Not .since President Herbert Hoover was defeated· in his bid for reelection in 1932 has· a popularly elected President been defeated by a challenger.

Even if President Carter wins the election next week, the com­petitiveness of the nomination and election campaigns will have manifest the continuing vulnerability of modern presidents.

Not since Dwight Eisenhower left the Oval Office in 1961 after having been elected for two terms has a president served two full terms • a result which many ob­S!!rvers thought was guaranteed by adoption of the twenty-second amendment to the U.S. Constitution. . Not so? The complexity

of national problems and the contemporary reassessment of the presidency have resulted in difficult times for incumbents of that office.

As regards the voting behavior of the elec­torate, two features which deserve careful watch in the upcoming election are independent voting and voter turnout.

Independence among recently eligible voters has become a hallmark of the political landscape in this country since 1964.

For almost two decades, political leaders and students of politics have been searching for a new majority and stability in American politics.

At this state, the 1980 election will not answer that search. Its outcome will not clarify our national goals and pur­pose. Maybe 1984 holds greater promise!

Low number to play election 'games' Margaret Braswell

StaHwrHor

Four days hence, Americans will deter­mine our national leader for the next four years. As usual, a plethora of issues has been raised :since Labor Day, reflecting the diverse interests in this country.

However concerned one feels about ERA, or pollution control, or in­ner-city aid for Chicago, it seems eminently clear that two issues supercede the rest.

inflation as rising prices, Carter shifts the blame for increased inflation to OPEC and the greedy American public, whose demand is termed ex­cessive.

Decrying "our inor­dinate fear of Com­munism," he has deleted or cut back and delayed every defense program that has come before him.

Mr. Carter seems to cling to . the idealistic belief that others are as rational and peaceful as we are in the west, and that the world naturally evolves for the better.

An excellent case in point is the deterioration of our position in the Persian Gulf. Although agitation for the Shah's downfall began months before the end, the Shah claimed to have received nothing but confused and contradictory messages from Carter, who finally decided to let the winds of change spend their force in Iran.

Folks will be playing eeney, meeney, miney, moe, Nov. 4, a date predetermined to be a catastrophic D·Day of another sort for the average American.

At least, that sums up the impression one gathers from what the media spits out on the front page or on the tube.

Meanwhile, hell would freeze over if we Americans ever cease complaining. We keep screaming 'til we're red, white and blue that the election is a farce, and the candidates don't even approach competency, as if they are personally forcing us to squeeze them out of our political

system and elect them. We attack those three­

musketeer-type candi­dates as ·if they are ultimately responsible for our sorry lack of leadership. The sad fact is that when we don't produce quality, we don't .get it.

As always, we spoiled Americans take our good 'ole electoral process for granted. Take a long look at some of tlie world's .. leaders and the manner in which Poland's Gierek, Iran's Rajai, and South Korea's Chan Doo Hwan 'rose to their distinguished positions. It certainly wasn't by popular vote.

In ·a U.S. News and World Report study, polls indicated that less than

54.4 per cent of the voting age population cast ballots in 1976. This pitiful percentage is expected to drop even lower this year.

Noting the general (yawn) apathy that dwells on the WF cam· pus, I cringe to think of what the percentage of registered voters is at this university.

Whatever that small number 'may be, I hope they will vote with grim faces, swearing to nur­ture better leadership in years to come.

With regard to . the remaining (yawn) students, I wonder how you would react to the announcement that this would be our last free election and our next

Either Jimmy, Ronnie or John will affect four years of your life. You may be choosing the lesser of the three evils, but the worst evil is not choosing at all.

These two, federal money policy (relating to questions concerning our domestic economy) and U.S. foreign policy (relating to defense questions as well as our place in this world), override all single issue controversies. They pertain directly .;to our way of life, and, if problems in these areas are left unresolved, all others will be as well. In these two areas, Jimmy Carter has been a disappointment.

Labeling those who oppose SALT II, (in­cluding members of the U.S. Senate who refuse to ratify it), "war-mongers," he now promises to resubmit this flawed treaty soon.

What Mr. Carter will not accept, is the fact that the Kremlin operates with a clear overall world-historical . mission in mind.

Driven by their deep-. rooted Marxist-Leninist ideology, the Soviets see strife and conflict in the world, and a predestined collision with the west.

They have tailored their foreign policy ac­cordingly, and with a coherent world view in

The historical parallel is striking. Mr. R!lagan's long-held wariness of the U.S.S.R. is well-known and more comforting at this point.

Though his health never bas bee~ good, he said he's been lucky these past 13 years. He credited this improvement to the walking involved in his job.

That kind of talk makes me feel a little inferior. I can't help but think that in 50 years or so, the thing I'll remember most about my college days is trashing my suitemates.

After the first snowfall, we took a bucketful of snow into Mitch and Terry's room and bad a snowball fight; then I went outside, got a huge chunk of snow, took it upstairs and executed a perfect reverse, backhanded, rump­roasting, bun-toasting White Christmas dunlt ·on their floor that would have made Darryl Dawkins sit up and take notice.

when asked about Spike varied from an in­frequent "Who?" to "Everyone loves Spike."

I spent three-quarters of my sophomore year either pulling all­nighters, eating late breakfasts or thinking of diabolical ways to abuse my suitemates.

I suppose things started my freshman year, when I sneaked into my suitemate Mitch's room, filled his shoes with jelly and put baby powder in his hair dryer.

Room abuse became our specialty, and nothing could stop us. Once we stole Mitch and Terry's door. Another time I climbed into their second·story window by standing on a tall friend's shoulders. Then I moved all their furniture against the door and jumped back out the window.

Things started slowly. At Halloween, however, Tony and 1 managed to get ahold of several pumpkins. Grinning evilly, Tony grabbed a pumpkin, opened the door to Mitch and Terry's room, yelled, "Herel Catch!" and threw the pumpkin at Terry, who was studying philosophy.

Terry ducked, and the pumpkin exploded on the floor. Seizing the initiative, I grabbed another pumpkin, cradled it like a basketball and slam­dunked it onto their carpet

The coup de grace of room abuse came during finals' week of spring semester. Mitch and Terry went out to study, and they committed the grave error of not locking the door. So ten of us went into their room and moved every bit of their furniture onto the Poteat house courtyard.

At midnight Mitch and Terry returned to find all their furniture in the courtyard, and about thirty people partying on it.

Of all the ways to summarize violinist Elmar Oliveira's Artists Series recital at Wait Chapel last Thursday night, perhaps the description "an evening of disparity" would serve best.

Oliveira and ac· companist Jonathan Feldman presented a concert that was uniform only in the great variation in the quality of the per· formances. These two artists showed a proclivity for splendidly realizing one piece yet presenting a mediocre performance of another.

The opening number, Mozart Sonata in G Major, No.ll (K 379), definitely tended towards the side of mediocrity. So im· balanced were soloist and pianist that it was difficult to tell.whether this was a sonata for

With the Sonata in A Minor, Op. 105, by Robert Schumann, all the ills plaguing the preceding Mozart disappeared. Feldman's accompaniment soft­

Spanky's location may be one of the problems. It is in Reynolda Manor, where the Royal Hearth Pub used . to be. Most students, unless they're going to the store or to the ABC, aren't in that area very often. ·

Another reason for Spanky's lack of patronage is the tradition of going to the Saf Room. .

indeed a time "when meadow, grove, and stream, the earth, and every common sight, to me did seem apparelled in celestial light," as Wordsworth said.

It was 1968, and unaware of Viet Nam, riots, and hatred, I saw everything in "the glory and freshness of a dream." The waters of Florida on a starry night were beautiful and fair, and the sunshine was a glorious birth. I surely heard the call at nine, and I know I felt it all.

The joys and feelings at Pompano Beach, Floritta in March were infinite for a small boy: miles of sand and lonely ocean, a half day of school and PE

the Oakland A's where he set a World Series' record by appearing in all seven games. But Darold wasn't much of a putter, and after my nervousness abated, I beat him by two strokes. He bought me a Coke.

It wasn't the last time I would get a free drink from a player. Municipal Stadium, the March home of the Senators, had a marvelous luncheon table filled with club sandwiches, hot dogs, hamburgers, Cokes and Fanta Orange. The clubhouse sat right behind the stands, and all I had to do was sneak under the chain that separated the bleachers from the players and walk into the luncheon room. Of course, I had permission to do it and

My father covered the Washington Senators for a big city newspaper, and in 1968 we came down to Pompano Beach for spring training.

Pompano was a small town then, with little traffic; no pollution, and not too many rich, New Jersey tourists. Hotels and beach houses lined the Atlantic, and we set up home at the Surf Rider establishment. There was a pool outside our front door with an 18·hole putting green next to it, and the ocean was only 50 yards away. And the Senators, much to my excitement, lived in the same motel.

My first contact with a ballplayer came, oddly enough, on the putting green. I spent hours perfecting my stroke and one morning on the first hole, Darold Knowles came out of his room and challenged me. Knowles, of course, was the Senators' ace reliever,· and he later went on to

the players became used to me walking around with two sandwiches, and a Fanta Orange, listening to their stories.

One memorable af· ternoc:m, I sat eating and listening to Boog Powell and Mike Epstein, the big Senators' first basemen. Boog must have had 10 sandwiches, and Epstein wasn't far behind with his seven or eight. As they wolfed down their turkey· on-ryes and ham-and­cheeses, Boog started talking about prodigious eating exploits he had seen over the years.

"Yeah, I'll tell you, Mike. I can put away some food, but I've never seen anybody eat like Frank (Howard). We went to breakfast one time and I swear to God, the man ate 12 eggs, two steaks, eight biscuits, hash browns, everything. I couldn't keep up with him." Boog and Epstein laughed.

fascinating and utterly­unique. Only ten years old, I cringed at his sentences because every other word was an ex­pletive that should have been deleted. But the man knew the science of hitting better than anyone who ever lived and he loved to stand around with a bat in his hands and talk hitting. All Williams had to do was pick up a Louisville Slugger and, as if by magic, a crowd would instantly gather, eager to listen to the master.

"You have to get your hips into the. ball," he would say. "All the power comes when you cock your hips."

Unser hit .286 in 1969 by cocking his hips. The Senators played good ball, and Washington was alive with baseball fever. Two years later, Bob Short moved the team to Texas. Del Unser was traded to Cleveland. And a twelve-year-old boy saw the prison house beginning to close; things like 'Nam and riots became realities.

As Watergate erupted and the energy crisis hit, I followed Del Unser. Waiting in a gas line, I read about him when he hit the cover of The Sporting News. When I was thinking about colleges, Unser was among the National League hitting leaders. By 1978, however, Unser was 33. The 11-year veteran hit .196 for the Montreal Expos and it looked like the end.

Unser was reacquired by Philadelphia (he played for the Phillies in the mid-seventies) in '79, though, and the comeback began.

"Montreal thought I was all through, but I knew I could · help somebody," Unser said. "I came to Philadelphia, changed my stroke ·a little bit, and I regained my confidence. People

told me to quit, but I knew I could come back."

Unser had an excellent season in 1979. He was the Phillies top pinch hitter, and he hit over .300 coming off the bench. Unser also set the major league record or three pinch-hit home runs in three consecutive at bats.

It was in the 1980 play­offs and World Series, however, that Del Unser came all the way back.

"Everybody keeps talking about luck and miracles and heart and character." said Phillie third baseman Mik~J Schmidt in Sports Illustrated. "But we've got talent. We've got Del Unser coming off the bench."

In the play-off finale, Unser lined two bits to help the Phillies over·

come Houston. And in the World Series, Unser was superb in the pinch­hitting role.

, Driving to Charlot­·t('sville Wednesday night during game 2, I nearly drove off the road in excitement when Vin Scully shouted that Del had lined a Dan Quisenberry sinker into leftfield for a run-scoring double. And when Unser smacked a double in game 5 to score Schmidt _with the tying run, I again went beserk, shouting like a madman. ' •.

In an interview after game 5, Scully and side· kick Sparky Anderson asked Unser about his major league career. Sparky even jokingly referred to Unser as a.-former Washington Senator.

"Well, it wasn't that long ago," Unser said softly. "It was only 1968. I just have to thank God that I have been able to make it this far."

1968 was not really that long ago, in a sense, but the times have changed. The visionary dream has fled; and the celestial light has faded. That small, nine-year-old philosopher is no longer, and the obstinate questionings have vanished. . Yet in the memories of

childhood, and the soothing thoughts that can come out of suffering, "we will grieve not," Wordsworth says, "rather find strength in what remains behind ... In the faith that looks through death, in years that bring the philosophic mind."

Billy Packer tries to set record straight George Minot

sPortaEdltor

NCAA basketball announcer Billy Packer, a former WF assistant coach, has issued what he called "the real story" behind comments he made at a Williamsburg Sports Club luncheon October 13.

At the luncheon, Packer said he altered the high school transcripts of former basketball star Charlie Davis.

"I changed all the Ds and Fs he had on his transcripts at Brooklyn Tech," Packer said October 13. "He had ranked 621st of 627 students, but I had him in the top fourth of his class and got him into Laurinburg Institute and then into Wake."

In material presented to the Old Gold and Black, however, Packer said "the papers have seen fit to print one man's grossly misrepresented story.

"First off, the fact is that I did not alter Charlie Davis' transcript and was not a cheat as a college coach," Packer said.

In an Associated Press wire release October 15, Packer told the "real Charlie Davis story."

"It was February (1967) of his senior year in high school, the night before his last high school game," Packer said. "Charlie's coach told me he really wanted to see Charlie get away from the bad environment of the city (Davis lived in Harlem).

"Charlie made over 900 on his college boards, but he didn't have a 1.6 which the

NCAA required in order to sign an athlete to a college scholarship.

"I got him into Laurinburg Institute," Packer said. "Brooklyn Tech (Davis's high school) transferred everything 'C' or better down there. He went there that spring and summer before getting into Wake Forest."

Despite Packer's insistence that he did not change transcripts, his comments at the Williamsburg luncheon were published later by both wire services, and the story was picked un bv several national newsJ)aJ)ers.

Along with· transcript comments, Packer was reported as saying that he was a cheat as a college coach.

"I was good at cheating," Packer told the Sports Club. "I would have been a great coach at an outlaw school. Was I ashamed of it? Hell, no. I always thought the bottom line was that I could help them out."

Packer maintains that the luncheon was an informal gathering, and that some of the stories had an element of truth, some were pure fabrication, but none needed interpretation since they were designed to have fun with.

"It was supposed to be a fun time for a bunch of sportsmen," Packer said to the AP. "Gee, some of my stories are 25· years-old. I can't believe the guy who wrote the story was that naive. I can't believe somebody wrote an article about a talk at a standup sports' club luncheon like it was a press conference. The guy

Packer said that his answer would be to ~~ld a p~ess conference or ask for a leg1t1mate mterview.

Regardless, Packer's statements as reported by Milliken have caused con­siderable embarrassment to the university.

Lambda Chis take intram.ural football title

Despite being ham­pered by a rash of in­juries, the Wake Forest women's volleyball team still has the makings of a very successful unit, 'lind the secret lies in some little-used potential. At UNC-G Tuesday, the Deacs demonstrated how dangerous that untapped potential can be as they downed Louisburg Cpllege and previously unbeaten UNC-G.

Most people say they participate in intramural sports for nothing more than fun and exercise; win or lose it doesn't really matter.

Well if there was any doubt in my mind as to the absurdity of that statement, it was laid to rest after watching the intramural football play­offs.

The fierce com-petitiveness and intensity which these games exhibited were on the level of a varsity sports contest.

When the dust finally settled, the Lambda Chis emerged with the coveted campus crown following a thrilling 20-19 victory over the Dekes.

The championship game featured the lightning fast, high-

scoring offense of the Lambda Chis, the regular season fraternity league ~hamps, against the incredibly tough defense of the Dekes, the only team to have beaten the .Lambda Chis· in regular season play this year.

True to form, the Deke defense turned in the first big play of the game when Chuck Faig in­tercepted an Armand Molino pass on the third play of the game. Four downs later, the Dekes took a 6-0 lead when Doug O'Brien flipped a three yard scoring pass to John McCabe.

The Deke touchdown woke up the Lambda Chis, as they put their offense in full throttle and drove downfield with Molino scoring the tying touchdown on a 15-yard run.

With the score tied at 6,

Dumond then picked off an O'Brien pass and the Lambda Chis found themselves with a chance to increase their lead.

point, ·the Dekes closed to within 1 and trailed 20-19.

On their next possession, the Lambda Chis were driving to what looked like a .clinching score and they were down on the Deke 5-yard line when the Deke defense stiffened. Over the next three plays the Lambda Chis lost 40 yards and were forced to punt.

With a little more than two minutes remaining in the game, the Dekes had advanced the ball into Lambda Chi territory but on fourth down Dan Dokes intercepted an errant O'Brien pass to halt the threat and preserve the Lambda Chi lead.

The Lambda Chis then ran the clock out as they captured the intramural championship.

In the opening game, the Deacons downed Louisburg 15-11 and 15-9. The strong hitting of sophomore Liz Brown, backed by defensive play from freshmen Cheryl Elliott, Sarah Feichter and Pam Pounds, paced the Deacons win.

Returning sophomore Lisa Sanford provided the offensive punch as she scored seven of 15 points in game one on the strength of a powerful serve. ·

Deacs record victory Gene Garrett

Sporlo wrller-

The Wake Forest men's golf team recorded a thirty stroke victory at the Iron Duke tournament two weeks ago in Durham, North Carolina.

The Deacon win was never in question as a final round challenge by North Carolina State was easily held off.

This week, Wake travels to Greensboro for the Guilford Intercollegiate tournament.

The Deacons began the fall season with a seven stroke victory in the Campbell Invitational in Raleigh.

Ingram Tynes recorded a 70 for the lowest round of the tournament.

Seniors Robert Wrenn and David Abell lead the talented 1980 Wake golf team.

The two all-American candidates placed second in an invitational tournament in Guadalajara, Mexico this summer, and have led the Deacs in two tour­nament victories this fall.

Rounding out the top four players are juniors Tom Knox and Bill 'Nance, whose consistent play has contributed greatly to the success of the team.

It seems a little dif4 ficult to believe that the sky could fall in less time than it takes to tape an ankle, but that is exactly· what happened in Grove~ Stadium last Saturday afternoon.

Following a late fourth quarter touchdown drive which Wayne McMillan capped with an B-yard run and which gave Wake a 21-17 lead, Virginia marched 80. yards and scored with 18 seconds remaining in the game.

Homer Jordan. Jordan provides a case of double indemnity for the Deacon defense. He is the team's leading ground-gainer with 313 yards rushing on 95 carries and one touch­down. Through the air, Jordan has amassed 726 yards and has thrown for four touchdowns.

More important than either Tuttle or Jordan, though, may be the foot of Clemson kicker Obed. ArirL .

Ariri has reemphasized his value to Ford twice this season as he lifted the Tigers to a 13-10 win over VPI and as he booted a last second field goal-to break a 24-24 tie against Virginia.

The Clemson defense is solid against the run despite some key injuries but more importantly for Wake, t.he Tiger secon­dary is ·prone to attack. Should Mackovic employ the aerial pattern he established last season and has thus far rein­forced this fall, the Clemson backfield could be in for a long afternoon.

Prior to Wednesday's fiasco at Raleigh, Wake coach George Kennedy said, "to beat State we will have to play our best game ever. We will have to be in the game men­tally for all 90 minutes."

Junior halfback Wayne McMillan, who rushed for 95 yards, meets resistance in last Saturday's Virginia game.

If Mackovic goes to the air early, look for somewhat of a scoring circus from the Deacons. Ariri will have his foot in on some of the action before the final gun and if the offensive line can shut down Jordan, look for the Deacs in the win column this week. Prediction: Wake 24, Clemson 20.

Most athletes hate to see the annual return of Standard Time since it eliminates an hour of possible play. But the Deacon soccer team was thankful for the early darkness Wednesday when their game with NC State was halted due to darkness with 10:10 to go in the game. and State leading 6-0.

State continued to overpower the Deacons in the second half. Ogu scored the first State goal of the second half, unassisted at 34:33. The final goal of the game was scored by John Blitz at 32:29. Afejuku assisted.

As expected, State dominated all aspects of the game. When the game was called, State had taken 30 shots on goal, Wake only six. Of those shots, the State goalie only bad to make saves on four.

Even with the loss to State, Wake's first-ever intercollegiate soccer season has been a suc­cess. The Deacs are 11-7-1 with three games remaining. The Deacons also boast the leading American goal scorer in the conference in Rob Burt. Burt is fourth behind three Nigerians.

In the second half, Jeff Loftin scored at the 16:00 minute mark assisted by Erwin. Erwin added the final Deacon score at 33:00 assisted by Steve Walker. All of the goal scorers are first year players. Loftin is a junior transfer, the others are all freshmen.

In an item released in an Akron, Ohio newspaper, it was reported that Brent Offenbecher, former Wake Forest quarterback who left school last month to be with his wife and child, can now enroll at Ohio State University. Ohio State has received a letter of release from Wake; should Offenbecher choose to play for the Buckeyes, he will be required to sit out a year (as mandated by the NCAA) and will then be eligible for at least two seasons of competition with the Buckeyes.

State scored twice in the final 1:30 of the half on goals by Gerry McKeon and Butch Barczic. Barczic's goal came with only three seconds to go in the half.

Wake knew before the game tha:t State was a powerful team. The Wolfpack has been ranked in the Top 10 of the South all year, and they are close to the Top 20 in the country. State is hoping for a bid to the NCAA tournament and by winning the rest of its .games, it should receive an invitation.

Burt and Erwin both exhibited their goal scoring abilities last Sunday when the Deacons defeated UNC-

"I'm proud of what the team has done this year. Most players came from other programs and it takes time to adjust to school, the team and to each other. After 18 games, the adjustment period is over and they need to play a good game collectively," Kennedy said.

'Fast' team plays to capacity crowd

Board of Visitors lends support to proposal for comPuter grant

"The Fast," a play created by two WF students, drew sellout audiences last Thursday and Friday at the WF Ring Theatre.

The play was written by senior Stephen Amidon and directed by senior Jackson Savage.

The inexperienced cast members showed acting promise. However, the main drawing card of the show was the fact that it was created by students. · "The Fast" is an in· trospective piece that probes fundamental questions of faith • a play of ideas.

(Steve Dixon) is quick to yell blasphemy.

Through the charac­ters' introspection, the significance of the fast is questioned. Moreover, Peter calls Paul's cries of blasphemy insignificant. Peter thinks God looks upon the blasphemer and the zealot in the same light.

The action of the play is limited to the thoughts of the characters until the end of the show. Those thoughts manifest themselves in action when Paul murders Matthew (Lee Sellars).

Members of the university Board of Visitors lent support iast weekend to a . CAUSE grant proposal which could lead to expansion of the WF computer program and its in­tegration into the university's liberal arts curriculum.

Marcellus Waddill, professor of mathematics, outlined'

· the proposal to board members after they heard several presen­tations on the use of

computers in the liberal arts education.

Waddill's proposal, which will be submitted to the National Science Foundation (NSF), requests a $250,000 grant to upgrade the present computer offerings and program.

An expanded program would allow more students to familiarize themselves with corn· puter language in in· troductory math courses, Waddill said. If students learn the rudiments of computing, they will be able to use computer -terminals in any ap· plicable courses, he said.

Waddill advocated a strong liberal · arts program and feels basic computer knowledge is a timely extension of the liberal arts. He said the proposed program is not a move toward a com· puter major, however.

If the NSF were to grant the money, the

. university would have to match at least half the amount.

Waddill emphasized, however, that all plans are speculative. The foundation allotted money to only one of every six applicants last year, and applicants will

not know of awards granted until May 1981.,

The last CAUSE grant Wake Forest received was for the construction of the biology depart­ment's greenhouse in 1977. The grant precipitated the WF­Baptist controversy.

Since the board serves only in an advisory capacity, it has no power to implement any policy. The Board of Trustees, however, has adopted a resolution of en-dorsement and, authorized a search for supplementary funds for the computer program.

The play opens at a monastery during a time of fasting. An altar has been desecrated and Father John (Jim Fredricks) deliberates action. The responsibility for the desecration lies within the monastery.

Faith and innocence are juxtaposed in the first and last scenes of the play. The boy (Kathleen Johnston) cleans the desecrated altar, then cleans Matthew's blood. When pressed to make a judgment on the events that have occurred, the boy alludes to his youth.

Savage employs clever techniques in the staging of "Th~ .Fast.~' using several areas and levels of the theatre.

In a director's note,

John Hunter

Savage places university theatres in a role of ''preserving and promoting that which is worthwhile in theatre ... Our goal cannot be to merely entertain, but to provoke those

thoughts and emotions that might not otherwise be encountered."

The compatibility of Savage's and Amidon's work exemplified con­junction and heightened the show's success.

But the poems Levine read after these anec· dotes were quite revealing as well, and he read them powerfully and passionately. After saying, "I've never been utterly satisfied with my birth," Levine read a series of poems in which

he rewrote his birth in mythic proportions.

Most of these poems contained the familiar images of his Detroit youth, but in a dream-like setting where seemingly • unimportant details were hauntingly stressed.
