Or. Sydnor Lectured Cn German-Russian Historical Conflicts
By JANET COLEMAN Dr. Charles W. Sydnor, History
Department faculty member, presented a lecture on "The Waffen SS and the German- Russian Conflict" on November 8, at 7:30 in Wygal Auditorium.
The talk concerned the role of the SS Death's Head Division - a case study in the racial and ideological warfare as conducted by one of the original and one of the best of the military for- mations of Hitler's armed SS. Particular emphasis was devoted to the prewar origins of the Death's Head division as a for- mation that was created from the concentration camp guard units of the Third Reich and the effects of this experience upon the Division's military performance and atrocity record in Nazi Germany's total war against Communist Russia.
An audience of fifty or sixty people attended, three fourths Longwood faculty, a few students, and some of "the world's best 'brown nosers'", as one student pointed out.
Dr. Sydnor was introduced by Dr. Etheridge as "a stimulating and provocative colleague" and a man with "impeccable credentials".
Dr. Sydnor then began his talk by pointing out his interest in the German-Russian conflict, a period Americans fail to un- derstand. He explained that current historical studies on the Waffen SS and the German- Russian conflict were lacking in this country. However, he said the war was such a decisive event that it almost defied a satisfactory treatment.
HITLER'S
ELITE
1939-1945
Dr. Sydnor explained the development of the Schutzstaffel (Protection Squad), or SS. Hitler not only needed the Stur- mabteilung (Storm Section), of SA, which was the Party army and mass organization, but he wanted a small elite force to spearhead the revolution and act as his personal bodyguard. The men chosen for this purpose became known as the SS. "They were chosen chiefly because of their ability to crack heads," Dr. Sydnor pointed out.
Dr. Sydnor mentioned the various divisions of the SS, but centered most of his discussion around the Waffen SS or the Death's Head Division. He ex- plained that the term, "Waffen" meant "armed". The Waffen SS were the combat units of the SS subjected to intensive political
and ideological indoctrination. Through the use of a map, Dr.
Sydnor pointed out the military strategy of the Waffen SS and how they attempted to postpone the ultimate collapse of Hitler's Third Reich. At places such as Kharkov, Warsaw, Normandy, the Ardennes, and Berlin, the Waffen SS tried to halt or push back the Allies.
Dr. Sydnor also discussed the various leaders involved with the SS. Very important to the development of the Waffen SS was Heinrich Himmler, Reichsfuhrer SS. Other leaders mentioned were men such as Theodor Eicke and Paul Hausser.
Dr. Sydnor's lecture was followed by a brief question and answer period. His lecture was the third in the Longwood Colloquim Series.
State Institutions Asked By Gov.
Godwin To Cut Back 5% Of Budget Because of a need for certain
savings "in order to balance the budget" Governor Godwin has asked for all state institutions to revert 5 per cent of their original budgets, based on the general fund (that which is funded by state tax money) back to the state tresasury.
This does not include money, received by state colleges, from student tuition.
Under its current budget, which was built in 1973, Longwood receives $2,832,345 from the general fund of Virginia. If it complied with Governor Godwin's request, it would return $141,617 to the state treasury. However, since the time that
this budget was built, increased costs on inflationary items, coupled with salary rises, have increased the original by $92,192.00, making it necessary for longwood to request an ad- ditional $51,852.00 from the state.
"In essence, we were in a
pretty bad situation," said Mr. Jimmy Paul, business manager. "We ended up telling the governor that we couldn't revert any amount of the original ap- propriation."
Longwood has responded, however, by telling the governor that they would reduce the original request for additional appropriations to $26,132 or approximately 1 per cent of the amount Governor Godwin re- quested it to revert back.
This response has been sub- mitted to Carter O. Lowance, the acting secretary of Education, and as yet no reply has been received.
"I don't know of any school that actually returned the 5 per cent," said Mr. Paul. According to him, responses from other schools vary "from what we did to returning approximately 4 per cent."
More than anything else, the
point we tried to make was that, coupled with salaries and fixed items such as utilities, coal and oil, and considering what we'd already spent, we felt we only had $182,000 that we had any control over," said Mr. Paul.
Even the reduction in requests is going to mean a tightening of the budget, according to Mr. Paul. There will be no further purchase of library books or periodicals until July 1. Energy conservation methods will be continued (thermostats will be maintained at 68 degrees during the winter months and 77 degrees during the summer) and travel has been reduced.
And all skilled tradesman in employment at the college will receive no overtime pay for the remainder of the year. Equip- ment purchases have been curtailed, and the college will not hire any additional employees unless it is essential.
Residence Board Conducts
Survey - Forms Committee
By BETH RAFFERTY Residence Board conducted a
survey in all the dorms in order to enable the students to express their opinions on the present Open House regulations, but according to Pat Watson, Residence Board Chairman, only an estimated thirty-five per cent of the student body took ad- vantage of it.
Pat stated that, "An over- whelming majority of the students want a week end ex- tension of the Open House hours." She added that, "There were a few people who wanted twenty-four hour visitation through the week end.
Pat also stated that the majority of people wanted the open door policy during visitation hours to be changed so that the students would be allowed to close their doors. There was also feedback from the students ex- pressing their opinions that their guests should be allowed to consume alcoholic beverages during Open House. Pat added that, "Some students wanted no restrictions," and some wanted, "the sign-in, sign-out things eliminated."
Pat stated that Dr. Willett, "briefed the Board of Visitors this week end about it and told them there'll be possible changes." Resident Board has started a Committee to study the different proposals on the Open House Regulations which were received from the students. Vickie Easter, a freshman on Residence Board and a dorm president, is the Chairman of this Committee. There is a list on the Student Government bulletin board where any student who is interested can sign up for this committee. Pat stated that one action the conunittee is going to take is "to write to state in- stitutions that are predominantly single sexed," and explore their visitation policies. Pat added that, "We've never opened up a committee like this to the student body."
We'll be talking to more students," stated Pat. She added that she hopes the students will support and aid the conunittee
CHI wishes to thank the Student Assistants for their invaluable assistance in the promotion of last week's raffle by selling tickets, posting publicity, and handling the overall execution of the project. Their enthusiasm and work provided a vital con- tribution to this project of campus improvement
because. "Something will get done." "We're doing the best that we can," added Pat, but. "the process of change is slow." Pat hopes that they will get a "good working background," of opinions and statistics to present to Legislative Hoard. If a proposal passes Legislative Board it then goes to Dr. Willett for approval, and it needed it goes to the Board ol Visitors. On November 25, the conunittee is scheduled to report back to Residence Hoard, and hopefully with a large percentage ol feedback from students.
239 Participate In Rush 1974 Changes Noted
Formal Sorority rush lor the 1974-75 college year took place last week, and was finalized by
walk on Stubbs Mall at 7:30 Sunday night.
Those officially registered for rush totaled 239 as compared with 203 students who par- ticipated in the last sorority rush at Ixingwood. Each class was represented, with the freshman class claiming the majority ol rushees. Actual figures listed 152 freshmen, (»7 sophomores, 1!) juniors and one senior.
Some changes were noted in rush this year. Sorority rush be- ing first semester was a major change over last year. However, according to Kathy Albrecht, president of the l'anhellenic Council here, there was no special reason for the change except that it was suggested b> the National l'anhellenic Council, and I xmg wood's Council decided to give it a try.
Perhaps the most decisive change was with respect to grade point averages. In the past, there lias been ;< 2.0 requirement established by the Panhellenii Council; this year any grad« requirements were left up to the individual sororities. Man) sororities subsequently dropped all grade requirements, some had a required grade point to pledge and for others there Mill be a requirement for initiation.
The week began with scheduled parties on .Monday and Tuesday nights. Wednesday and Thursday evenings the rushees could visit any seven sororities of their choice.
Parties attended on Friday and Saturday were by invitation. Invitations for Friday night's Theme parties were picked up on Friday afternoon from 1:00 to 3:00. On Saturday morning from 7:30 to 9:00 the invitation for Inspirationals were made available. Inpirationals took place that morning from 10:00 to 11:00 and from 11:10 to 12:10. Preferentials were signed on Saturday afternoon in I^angford.

Student Government-
Does It Represent Students'/ Although! I have never been a great defender
of the student organizations on this campus, in
recent months it seems that many of them have
begun to realize their obligations to the student body
In general, and have been taking steps to fulfill them.
These obligations which I speak of are, in es-
sence, to keep in contact with students - with what
they want, what bothers them the most, what they
would lik*1 to see changed, and what is most mean-
ingful to them. Although every one of 2,000 people
can not possibly agree on every issue student gov-
ernment has the responsibility to consider a variety
of opinions and try to hit a happy medium which will
satisfy the majority of needs.
Student government, then would not be run by a
"chosen few," but should make the effort to keep it-
self in contact with the people they were elected to
represent Tin* first letter to the editor this week is
a prime example of the fact that they are in some
cases, making this effort and are, surprisingly
enough, receiving some cooperation from the stu-
dent body
Nor is this the only example that can be cited.
Legislative Board, in trying to decide on that hot
and heavy issue - the sale of beer in the snack bar,
gave consideration to every voice that spoke out on
it - and these ranged from those of the most devout
Bible-Carriers to the most dedicated party enthu-
siasts. Student Union, which has long made an effort
to provide a variety of diversions for the different
types of students on this campus, is now also trying
to organize a service of a more serious nature -
a Hot Line to be "the friend in need" for troubled
students.
results of its trials known through the ROTUNDA in
an effort to dispel the air of mystery and darkness
as well as the rumors, which tend to follow it around
campus
However, there is still a great deal of room for
improvement In this matter. The handful of stu-
dents on the Hoards can not possibly be a really
accurate representation of all students. Surveys and
opinion polls are a step in the right direction - but
suppose every major issue in this country was
decided according to the results of the Gallup Poll?
More things need to be put to an open vote by the
student body, rather than being voted on by the
Boards alone And, both student government and
those they represent have the responsibility to
keep the other aware of what they are doing and
thinking about a certain issue, to be frank and
open-minded, and, above all, concerned about
matters of importance to L C. and its students.
Students, then, need to play a more active
part in the matters so vital to their careers as
students. It is up to everyone to take advantage
of the opportunities given them to play an active
role in making decisions concerning social regula-
tions, academic policies, etc. And it is up to those
who have the power to do so to guarantee that
students do, indeed, have these opportunities. Jane
Guest Commentary
By JUDI ELLIS
Most days in the life of a waitress are typically bad. Monday morning, Wanda Waitress rises out of bed bright and early to find all of the posters have fallen off the wall due to the great amount of heat and high relative humidity factor in the room. Wanda's roommate is furious and swears that Wanda got up at some mysterious hour of the night and tore them all down just for revenge. Wanda has no other choice than to just brush it otf. At 8:00 a.m. after Wanda has been scalded in the shower by five of her suitemates flushing the toilet, she is ready to joyfully start the day.
Wanda rushes over to the dining hall to set her tables for the noon hour meal. She finds that there are no clean glasses or tablecloths, "Ha, ha," she says. Since she has a 9:00 and at 10:00- 12:00, she will have no time to sit in the dining hall and wait for clean glasses and tablecloths. Wanda decides that either the people at her tables will have to
drink iced tea out of coffee cups while watching the termites go by or else the hostess must set her tables. After several traumatic experiences in her morning classes Wanda wades through the' people surrounding the dining hall doors. She repeats, "Excuse me, excuse me, please, excuse me, damn it, let me in!" Wanda finally enters after practicing her low hurdle and dodging skills, only to find her tables are not set. Rushing to set her tables, the barn doors open and the hostesses begin to round 'em up and move 'em in. Wanda's pay is docked for her tables not being set up on time. She joyfully serves her courteous tables who send her back for fifths and sixths, four cartons of milk, peanut butter and jelly, and coffee. There are four girls at one of the tables who ate every vegetable in separate soup bowls because they preferred the flavors separately. After all the occupants at the table had left, they could easily have been ruled a disaster area.
As usual, the students did
nothing to help. "Sure, it's my job, but this is ridiculous" She cleaned up as fast as she could and ran into her 1:00 class late. The professor wanted to talk to her after class about being late. Then it so happened that she walked into her 2:00 late. After class Wanda went to the dining hall to set her tables for dinner, only to find one-fourth of her time had been docked for having dirty tablecloths. She repeated, "Oh Shit, Oh Shit!" several times to calm herself down, counted to 10 and held her breath. She set her tables and left. The dongs struck five as she sat in her room studying enthusiastically. Wanda got up again and again high- tailed it to the dining hall. Needless to say, the evening meal ranked with the other meals on Wanda's list of total confusion and utter chaos.
Thus endeth another day and Wanda can go back to her room, study, and prepare for another fun-filled and enjoyable day in the Dining Hall serving the "ladies."
Thanks
Dear ROTUNDA Editor: Residence Board would like to
thank all students who responded with suggestions for improving our current Open House regulations. We'd like to assure these students that all comments have been considered and that we're busy working on the proposed changes. Any changes that we can make will take time and we ask that students not become discouraged or lose in- terest. Please feel free to ap- proach any Board members with questions concerning our progress or with additional suggestions. Once again, thanks for your support!
Sincerely, Pat Watson, Chairman
Clouded Loyalties
Dear Editor, In the past, 1 had always
believed that free elections were held in order for the voters to decide who was best qualified for a particular office. Candidates ran because they felt that they best possessed the qualities necessary to perform their designated duties. Unfortunately, this does not always seem to be the case at Longwood College.
In my observation, it appears that certain groups of students have attempted to use elections as a means of increasing their power and status on campus. At

times, such petty motives seem to have taken precedence over the desire for capable leadership.
As you listen to the campaign speeches, don't let your loyalties cloud your judgement. Try to make your choice on the basis of the character, qualifications, and platform of each INDIVIDUAL candidate.
Sincerely, Karen Cannaday
Jis satisfaction Dear Editor:
A lot of things are happening to the dissatisfaction of the waitresses in the dining room. It would take about two pages to list my grievances. If Mr. Carbone would set up a meeting for waitresses, hostesses, and personnel, maybe some of the difficulty can be solved.
But at this time, 1 would like to praise one employee of Slater. Without this young man, I feel that the "downstairs waitresses" couldn't survive. He's always there to lend a helping hand. I feel that Slater should recognize this man's service and attitude, he's fantastic!!!
Three cheers for Eugene Irving!!!

Residence Board Regulations Cause Rise Of Opinions By ELLEN CASSADA
For the first itme in recent months, a majority of Ix>ngwood students are voicing their opinions on a current campus issue: residence board regulations.
Most students surveyed favor at least an extension of the open hours on weekends. Sophomore
I rly Zava stated "I think the hours should be later on Friday, all day on Saturday, and later on Sunday I usually don't get back until after 5 p.m. on Sunday, and 1 have to bring all my stuff up to the room by myself." Adding to this. Candy McDaniel feels that 'when parents bring a lot of kids
back, they can't even go to then daughter's rooms." In con- tinuing, Kath\ K.Kjntz thinks
The hours should include Friday afternoons, Sunday nights, and until the dorm closes on weekends. I also think you should Keep the door partially open".
Carolyn Dralne adds "I think the rules definitely ought to be (hanged. It should begin earlier and remain later on weekends. After weekend dinners, you have to wait until 2:00 to go inside the dorm. The only place you have to entertain guests is in your room." In addition, Janet Lindner stated that "it's bad if you have a weekend guest and you can't Keep him in your room until the dorm closes."
An equal number of students would vote for a longer extension. Debbie Talman favors "twenty- lour hour visitation on weekends. I like no open hours on weekdays because you can run around without worrying who you might run into." A slightly different viewpoint was expressed by Avis Harvey. "Visitation hours should be nightly from 7 until 12 p.m. and weekends from 12 until 12. I in against 24 hour open dorms to insure to protection of the students." I,ynn Campbell would propose open hours from "7 to 12 p.m. every night, and from 12 to 2 a.m. on Friday and Saturday, and 12 to 12:30 p.m. on Sunday."
"I don't think you should have it all the time", states Billie Bnghtwell, Tin in favor of having it from 7 to 12 on ueeknights. and more time on Sunday. People are going to be noisy with or without guests, and you can still tell them to be quiet"
Way It Is Now Two anonymous students and
freshman Elaine Kountree like it
Varsity Volleyball Termed Successful
B) (LAKE BAXTER Umgwood College traveled to
VCU for the State Volleyball Tournament November 15-16. The first game they played was against Clinch Valley which they won 15-5 and 15-9. The second game was against l.ynchburg and they lost by scores of 15-10 and 15-5. The third game was with EMC and Umgwood again lost a tough game 15-10 and 15-6.
The teams were put in pools of four teams each; where each team played all the other teams in their pool. The top two teams of each pool went to finals. Madison came in first overall and l.yn- chburg and EMC came in second and third. The two teams that 1 xingwood lost to were EMC and Lynchburg, two of the top three teams.
Miss Callaway, the coach, felt that "For the first year the team has played together, they had a great season, 5-5, and played well in the state tournament.
the way it is now. Gail Pollard likes the regulations "as they stand now, but 1 would favor extending the hours from 7 to 12 on Sunday. I don't think the doors should be completely closed. It doesn't really make that much difference."
Residence Board conducted a survey several weeks ago to determine the student body's opinions on extending open hours. Ruth Gilliatt "voted to have the regulations to midnight on week- days and 24 hours on weekends. Guys don't usually have enough money to go to a motel and they need a place to stay. There are always plenty of empty beds they could use." Agreeing with his is Judith Moffitt. "This school has no right to regulate my private life. 1 also think the stupid rule about the open doors should be changed."
Margie Snead offers another statement "1 don't see why that since just two dorms have community baths that the rest of the college should be governed by
them. I'm tired of having my life run by little old ladies." Jamie West doesn't see why "certain dorms couldn't have certain hours, and the regulations set by a majority vote in the individual dorms."
India Watkins agrees, and adds that "if students are against it, they can have separate halls with different rules. Things are stupid the way they are. " Expressing a similar viewpoint, Charlotte Williamson states "I'm sick of being treated like a baby. It's about time we got as many privileges as other state sup- ported colleges. I feel we should have 24 hour visitation on weekends and open house from 7 until 12 on weekdays."
Combining all the issues is Janet Coleman, who favors "twenty-four hour visitation on weekends, closed doors, and drinking by the guests. The alcohol rules discriminate against males as they stand now. A girl guest can drink whenever whe wants, but a male cannot. I
also think it's ridiculous to keep the doors open when we are entitled to some privacy."
No Open House Offering more conservative
views is Katie Loope. "I don't like the idea of open house all the time. I suggest designating certain dorms for open house. I think the hours should be all day Saturday and longer on Sunday, but not past midnight, and none on weekdays. Beer should remain against the rules. I can't imagine dragging drunk guys out of the dorms." Sharing somewhat the same opinion, Vali Peters feels the rules "should be changed to 12 noon to midnight on weekends. Guests shouldn't be able to drink. I can't see drunk guys up here. Also, doors should be closed."
Many people feel that the community baths in Tabb and French will hamper the extension of open hours. Susan Adams and Susan Hale favor "more hours on weekends, but there should still be a break in between 5 and 7 so you cna run around like you
want."Sandy Peterson feels "the hours are fine. The break in between gives you time to take showers and get ready for dates."
Disagreeing with the idea of the two hour break in between open hours is freshman Nan Osteen. "The hours should be extended straight through. You can get dressed before you leave your room." Diane Hume and Chris Johnson suggest extending the hours "all the way through. All the breaks make it bad- especially on fathers." Michelle Bush also favors longer hours on weekends. "It might be nice to have visitation on weekdays, too. I don't see that community baths have anything to do with it."
Students who have been sur- veyed thus far generally favor some type of extension of the hours. A residence board com- mittee must draw up a proposal to present to the legislative board, Dr. Willett, and then to the Board of Visitors for final ap- proval.

J. Law Attends American Nuclear Society's Meeting
Joseph J. Law, assistant professor of chemistry at Ixmgwood College, attended the American Nuclear Society's annual meeting held recently in Washington, D. C.
Goals of the national programs for energy resources and con- servation and the role of nuclear power in meeting those goals were discussed at the five-day convention. Among the speakers were: Congressmen Craig Hosmer and Chet Holifield, members of the Joint Committee on Atomic Energy; Dr. Dixy I^ee Ray, chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission; and William A. Anders, former astronaut and now chairman of the newly-created Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
There were exhibits and displays of numerous nuclear in- struments for detecting and analyzing environmental pollutants, narcotic drugs, food products, forensic specimens, and substances of biomedical and clinical interest. Technical tours included visits to the National Bureau of Standards, the Naval Research Laboratory, and two electricity-generating power plants in Maryland and Penn- sylvania.
Law joined the American Nuclear Society in 1966 and became a full member of the Society in 1970. He has been engaged in nuclear research for seven years and has published several articles on nuclear and radiation chemistry.
In the past three years, Law's efforts have been directed toward creating better public un- derstanding of nuclear power generation by writing articles in popular magazines and newspapers. His most recent paper, entitled "Defending Nuclear Energy," appeared in the July issue of "Prevention." For his endeavors, he has received commendations from the community, industries, and the U. S. Congress.

Dr. Seeger And Dr. Alden Lectures
Part Of Bicentennial Program By KAREN FOSTER
In celebration of the nation's bicentennial, Longwood presented two lectures earlier this week. On Monday, Dr. Raymond John Seeger spoke on "The Humanism of Science," and on Tuesday, Dr. John Richard Alden talked on •Again, the American Revolution."
Dr. Seeger's lecture is part of the Bicentennial Program on Science and Society, sponsored by Sigma Xi and funded by the National Science Foundation. He is currently historian of Sigma Xi and Adjunct Professor of Applied Science at George Washington University. He was the first
director of the University of Maryland Institute for Field Dynamics and Applied Mathematics which he helped organize.
Dr. Seeger's primary research interests have been in the foundations of quantum mechanics, the electric break- down of solids, and Shockwave phenomena. The humanistic aspects of the development and understanding of physics, together with its literary and social interrelations, and its philosophical and religious im- plications have always been a personal concern with Dr. Seeger. He has published six books as well as numerous ai -

By KAREN FOSTER Cooperative programs with
Hampden-Sydney, a new policy for beginners' courses, studies abroad, and a new program with the Business Department are a few of the activities going on in the Department of Foreign languages.
1 Kitni. Greek and Russian are being offered at Hampden- Sydney to Longwood students wishing either to simply study these languages, or to major in them. However, a student cannot take the second semester of these courses unless she has previously had the first semester, stated Mrs. Anita B. Ernouf, depart- ment chairman.
Until this year, the situation applied also to the Spanish, French and German which are offered here. But "We are starting beginning courses in the
middle of the year," said Mrs. Ernouf. "They will be listed in the schedule for second semester." These classes are open to students who have had one year or less of the language.
Mrs. Ernouf stressed, in the department, we always give < the students) a chance to advance themselves by tests." Thus, if • student who takes a course as stated above and continues to work during the summer on her own, she can, by passing a test, receive credit for a full year's work.
The Foreign Language Department's study abroad program, offered in cooperation with the Council on International Educational Exchange, offers an undergraduate language program in Rennes, France, and in Seville, Spain.
Also offered is a Summer Program abroad where students spend four weeks studying in their choice of Spain, France or Germany and are given two weeks free time to travel. By dealing directly with the foreign universities involved, Mrs. Ernouf said, "We plan to keep the program as inexpensive as possible."
The Summer Program is open to all Longwood students, whether they have studied a foreign language or not. "They will be placed in language
courses at their level," Mrs. Ernouf said, and will receive six credits.
Finally, concluded Mrs. Ernouf, "We are trying to start something with the Business Department," a special program for students interested in the several business careers available in the foreign language field. They are currently working on a program for Bilingual Secretaries and International Business Administration. The

Woman Mathematician To Lecture
Dr. Lida K. Barrett, prominent mathematician and head of the Department of Mathematics at the University of Tennessee, will visit the Longwood Campus November 20 and 21 as a Mathematical Association of American lecturer. Her stay will be highlighted Wednesday evening at 7:30, when she will give a lecture in Wygal Auditorium entitled 'Applied Mathematics or Applicable Mathematics?" Following this talk, Lychnos Society will honor Dr. Barrett at a reception in the Green Room.
In addition, Dr. Barrett will give a discussion on "Women Mathematicians, Past and Present," Thursday at 1:00 p.m. also in Wygal Auditorium.
Dr. Barrett received her Ph. D. degree from the Universtiy of Pennsylvania, and has had teaching positions at a number of schools, including the Univer- sities of Pennsylvania, Utah and Wisconsin, as well as the University of Tennessee. She has also published a number of papers dealing with topology and its applications, including recent works on application on topology to metallurgy and material science.
During her visit, Dr. Barrett will meet informally with students and faculty. As a woman employed in a traditionally male profession, a mother of three children, and an active worker for equality for women, she should have valuable insights for both.
ROCHETTE'S
FLORIST
By JO LEILI White coats, red arm bands,
and some pale faces were common sights in Gammon Gym at Hampden-Sydney College last Thursday, November 14, when it was visited by the Roanoke chapter of the Red Cross in conjunction with its annual blood drive.
The blood drive, which was scheduled to last from 12:00 p.m. until 6:00 p.m., had set its quota at a hopeful 250 pints, to be distributed to various hospitals within a 150 mile radius of the Roanoke area. Checking into the situation around 4:00 p.m., proved the drive not to be progressing as well as expected.
The Hampden-Sydney Blood Chairman revealed this discouraging information, but also said that he "anticipated more people later on." To Hampden-Sydney, though, the significance of the blood drive extended beyond that of its being a worthy cause, as over the past two years a competition has evolved with another college found in Ashland, Virginia, Randolph-Macon.
This competition, which is waged for the coveted Tiger- Yellow Jacket Cup, is formed of a series of somewhat unrelated feats, which include beside the blood drive, a tug-of-war contest, and a Hampden-Sydney - Randolph-Macon football game.
The blood drive competition is calculated on a percentage basis, determined by the number of eligible persons in the schools who can donate blood, and those who actually do donate. The ineligible include students with medical problems and the football players of both schools. Last year found Hampden- Sydney victorious in its efforts, with 23 per cent donating to Kandolph-Macon's 16 per cent.
Competition does not occur on a strictly school-to-school basis, however, as individual frater- nities also enter into the spirit of the contest, being persuaded to donate by prizes for their frat, and occasional fines of a few dollars for reluctant individuals.
Most members did seem more than willing to donate, though, independent of any external stipulations, as the general mental attitude stated by one member was, "It's a good thing to do, it's helping someone else, it doesn't cost anything," and the physical attitude as stated by another member was. "1 feel great, I can't wait to get high!" Other willing donors included a veteran of 11 times, who was 'always glad to give blood," a live-time veteran and Geist member who gave because she was "just doing it," and a second- time veteran, who " was petrified last year, and still am!"
"A & P"
FOR YOUR
SNACK ITEMS
The drive did offer an opposite aspect for some donors, however, as many persons were turned away after waiting for up to two hours to give blood. Reasons for rejection were, for example, having too low a hemoglobin count, a history of heart trouble, ears pierced within six months or less which could prove a site for viral hepatitis, being under the minimum weight of 110 pounds, taking acne pills, penicillin, or various other medications, or registering too high a tem- perature due to a fever.
In all, though, the operation progressed smoothly and ef- ficiently, with help pouring in from all channels. Aid given in the form of manual labor was apparent at the stations for testing, recovery, typists, bottle table, and refreshments, which were donated in the form of sandwiches, crackers, and cookies by Slater, and bottles of soda donated by the town's Pepsi and Coke companies.
By 6:00 p.m., it was evident that the drive would have to extend beyond its time limit for at least another half hour, as the number of student donors in- creased. The Chairman of the Farmville Area Chapter of the Red Cross felt that the quota would be reached and noticed " a lot of cooperation between the schools," and stated it was one of the reasons why "1 love to work with colleges." If the quota was reached, it would be an economic help to the area hospitals and patients, as it costs $35 to $75 to receive a pint of blood, not in- cluding lab costs, plus the fact that in spite of blood drives, shortages occur in periodic cycles, whereby all elective surgery must be canceled. A spirit of optimism did prevail throughout the day, though, for as stated earlier by the Executive of the Farmville Area Red Cross, "The drive was somewhat better last year, however by 3:30 p.m., we were averaging as good as last year. Hampden-Sydney has never failed. With Ixin^wood cooperation, there is a possibility of meeting the quota."

expected to post an 11-1 varsity record and a 5-0-3 junior varsity record this year. The teams steadily improved throughout the season as the players became more aware of each others' abilities and styles of play."
There were several factors which contributed to this suc- cessful season. Talented newcomers and returning players strengthened the team both offensively and defensively A very strong forward line continually pressured the op- posing teams by scoring a total ol 41 goals during the regular season and an additional 10 goals during the tournament. The equally strong defense allowed only 8 goals during the season and l goal during the tour- nament. The junior varsit) team scored 21 goals and allowed onlj > goals in 8 games. The continued enthusiasm and dedication ol all the team members are factors which contributed greatly to the teams performance.

Hockey team travelled to Virginia Beach on October 19 and played the Virginia Beach Club. After having a very slow start Ixingwood quickened the pace by scoring 3 goals in the second half to win the game 3-0. Cathy Ixwe led the scoring with 2 goals while Karen Smith added the other.
Tuesday, October 22, Ix)ngwood was again victorious, this time over VCU by a score of 4-0. Karen Smith led the offense with 3 goals and Terri Voit added another. Ixmgwood worked well together showing complete control over the game by not giving VCU the chance to score.
The last game of Longwood's field hockey season was at home on November 6 against Roanoke College. Ix)ngwood won the game by a score of 5-1. Karen Smith, Terri Voit, Carol Filo, Cathy
Ix3we and Susan Wagner each tallied once to give Longwood their final win of the season. Susan Wagner was the first defensive player to score a goal this season.
In the final analysis Longwood had a very successful hockey season posting a record of 11-1 and Junior Varsity's record was 5-0-3. Ixmgwood was undefeated in intercollegiate competition. All of the player's enjoyed the season because everyone was willing to give their share and therefore made it easier for everyone to work for a common cause, that of winning. Leading Longwoods' teams in the goals scored were Terri Voit - 13; Karen Smith — 12; and on Junior Varsity Michele Nealon with 7.
On the week end of November 9-10 Longwoood College was host to the 1974 Tidewater Field Hockey Tournament. Ten clubs

and colleges participated in the tournament, accounting for the many exciting games that were played. Ixwigwood had 3 games during the tournament and won all of them against Westhanlpton, Virginia Beach Club and the Richmond Club. The highlight oi the Richmond Club game was when Nancy Dmoch scored on a tie-breaking penalty stroke to give Ix)ngwood a 2-1 win.
After the games were over, the selectors picked 3 teams to go to the Southeast Tournament in Goucher Maryland this past week end. Selected to the Tidewater I team were: Tern Voit, Cathy Ix)we, Terri Sawyer and Susan Wagner. Carol Filo was selected to the Tidewater II team along with Longwood graduates Loretta Bunting and Joanne Tucker. Pat Dameron and Scottie Capehart were selected to the Tidewater III team. Honorable Mention was given to Karen Smith and Nancy Dmoch for their outstanding play during the tournament even though they did not stand for selection.
The teams' victorious seasons were due to the efforts of then- coach Miss Carolyn V. Hodges. She was also responsible for the organization of the Tidewater Field Hockey Association Tournament. Miss Hodges was very happy about the season and said, "The 1974 Ixmgwood Field Hockey season was charac- terized by fun and excitement.

Dear Geraldine, I have several problems but my
most pressing problem seems to be my job. 1 am a waitress. And my problem is with the people I have to work with. Not the other waitresses but the students and dining hall personnel.
The students are selfish, hungry, exacting pigs, who think they're at the Kitz. They gobble up the first servings and send waitresses back for seconds they don't even eat. Wasting good food.
The dining hall personnel is also a problem. 'They are not helpful. They are petty and downright mean. They carry tales to "Miss Doris" about all the girls and sometimes these stones are figments of their imaginations or are told with enough embellishments to make the girls seem in the wrong.

problem sounds like something I'm going through now.
Yes, we do have a lot of selfish and hungry girls here and it makes me mad to see the food that is wasted. Take for instance, the turkeys that we had for "Birthday Dinner" on Monday. I could make some suggestions on how to stop this excess waste, but I'll wait until I'm asked. But let's get back to your problem.
I would suggest telling your tables a few of their bad habits and that it's bothering you. Also tell them that if they are cour- teous to you, you would return the favor.
As far as the dining room personnel, ignorance is usually- ignored. A lot of petty things are happening in the dining room which don't get the attention of Mr. Carbone. I know he isn't expected to handle every problem, that's why he has others under him. These people should be able to solve the conflicts, instead of adding to them.
The age factor is noticeable, but this wouldn't even come to light if the people would just learn to mind their own business.
I was taught to respect my elders, and I would appreciate it if you did also. But just as I've stated before, "ignorance is to be ignored."
