There Really Is No Place Like Home East Lansing is trans­ formed into the Emerald City as Dorothy, the Tinman, and Toto too, take to the streets and trounce the Gophers. With the advent of George Ferles, the new football coach, came the beginning of new hope and enthu­ siasm among Spartan football fans. There was a newness about this year’s Homecom­ ing fanfare. With feel­ ings of anticipation, the 1983 Homecom­ ing Committee began its planning. The OH MY! __________________ ■H H H H i committee started early in Janu- ary with its first major feat: selection of a theme. After much brainstorming and dis­ cussion, the members decided upon “There’s No Place Like Home” from the ever-popular movie “The Wizard of Oz.” This theme was chose because of its connotations to “home,” the alumni coming back to their alma mater and the present students who are residing here. Mar- cie Semerad, a member of Delta Gamma soror­ ity and the Panhellenic Council, presided as chairperson over the 10 sub-committees, which coordinated the events. “Homecoming is a so­ cial activity,” she said, “but it does a lot publicly for the University.” The committees programed an action-packed week. It started with the original “Wizard of Oz”. film shown in the Union Building and continued through the days with a costume contest and special dinner, parade, residence hall activities, pep rally, bonfire, football game, crowning of the king and queen and Alumni Brunch. The king and queen for 1983—84 were Ron Tenpas and Denise Derigo. “My stomach just fell,” Derigo said.-^B “I couldn’t hear very well because the sound system wasn’t too good,” Tenpas said. “The person next to me had to nudge me after my name was called, then 1 felt genuine surprise and elation. ” Both Tenpas and Derigo have been very ac­ tive on campus. Tenpas is the executive director for ASMSU and Derigo is the Mortar Board vice president, a member of Alpha Gamma Delta sorority and a member of the Order of Omega, an honorary fraternity, among other things. They joined the bid for the titles after the student board nominated Tenpas and Kappa Sigma fraternity nominated Derigo. It was ironic for both of them because the previous year Ten­ pas served as judge in choosing the king and queen and Derigo was on court. When asked why they thought they won, they both smiled. “Luck,” Derigo replied quickly, then more seri­ ously, “Because I believe in the University.” Tenpas said, “I’d like to think it was my great legs, but there was no swimsuit competition. ” continued WBf « THE FLAG CORPS concentrates outside the stadium so their pre-game performance will be a show of exciting perfection.

East Lansing Gets a Facelift By patching up a few sags and bags and building a new hotel, city planners hope to revitalize area business. Downtown East Lansing, suffering from a flagging economy, needed a boost for its business community. To attract more people to the area, East Lansing officials decided a drastic change was needed. The change: a new hotel. If everything goes according to plan, the downtown area will sport a new $17 million City Centre by April 1985. According to city planner Jim VanRavensway, the nine-story building at M.A.C. and Albert is designed to “attract additional shoppers and businesses. ” The first two floors will be an office- retail center and the others a 203-room Holiday Inn. In addition, the project includes a 300-space parking ramp and an enclosed CATA bus center. VanRavensway estimated that it will take 16 months to complete. To finance the project, the city of East Lan­ sing, Altman Development Corp., and Holly’s Inc., of Grand Rapids, formed the City Centre Partnership. Unfortunately, they failed to find a sponsor for it, and submitted an application to the federal government for a grant. The need for immediate financing is important because the contract between the city of East Lansing and the developers has an expiration date, of September 21, 1984. Nevertheless, Van Ravensway said he felt “optimistic that it will be financed, although nothing is definite yet.” De­ nise Shaheen, executive director of the East! Lansing Business Association, expressed con^J dence in the developers. There are several reasons why the project hasn’t received financial backing. A rising number of poor people in East Lansing resulted*? in a loss of shoppers and a weakened image of the city. Also, shopping centers such as Meri­ dian, Frandor and Lansing Mall, have pulled many customers away from the downtown area. And, Michigan State students, a large proportion of the downtown shoppers, were buying less due to the recession. A report by the East Lan­ sing Planning Commission showed that 49 per­ cent of the businesses in East Lansing, compared to 38 percent in 1981, reported that their profits were down. All of these factors discouraged po­ tential investors in the project. The recovery of the economy, however, should bring additional shoppers to the down­ town area. And, of course, the project itself is expected to attract more customers downtown from the shopping malls. Shaheen said it will be “a big ,Shot in the arm for the businesses in East Lansing.” Despite the good intentions of the City Centre planners, however, banks and other organizations obviously felt it was too risky to invest in. Thè project began in June of 1983 with a $600,000- downtown reconstruction projecig Additional city lights were put up, sidewalks were upgraded and shrubs and trees were planted along Grand River. The partnership purchased land from Jacobson Stores Realty, where a park­ ing lot was located, for $232,000. Also Delta Upsilon fraernity and the Howland House co­ operative were relocated to the 400 block of M.A.C. Barb Evenson, a senior who had lived in the Howland House for three years, said the new location was “definitely less desirable.” She complained of excess noise from living in a more populated area, along wiht a lack of a communi- ' cations system and heat in various parts of the house. Evenson also felt the city should have helped them meet the regulations of the housing and fire code. This was the second time How­ land House was relocated. Conversely! Dan Tome, of Delta Upsilon fraternity, said, “The new site is probably the most optimal location we could have asked for. ” He felt it was quieter and just as close to classes. Fraternity members expressed only positive as­ pects toward the move. —Tracey Farr THE DELTA UPSILON front door won’t be at 343 Albert anymore, as the house rolls on its way to its new home on M.A.C. ¡EHI «grafia ■ New Construction 17 1 Orwell’s Prediction hasn’t come true .. . at least not yet New Year’s Eve 1983, and the world was waiting impatiently for the arrival of the new year . . . 1984. 1984—the thought alone con­ jured up visions of futuristic days when people would be controlled by one person, technology would be vital to survival, and freedom of choice a memory from the past. The clock ticked away the hours, minutes, and finally seconds. At last, 1984 arrived. But after the apple dropped from the sky in New York’s Times Square, the cheers and kisses of party-goers across the land subsided, and the night turned into “just another day,” people began to compare themselves and their lives with those of George Orwell’s characters in his futuristic novel, 1984. A quick reading of the book assured them, quite contentedly, that we had not turned into the one-man ruled planet Orwell predicted. Or had we? Orwell wrote 1984 in 1948 and arrived at the title by simply reversing the order of the last two numbers in that year. In some ways history has repeated itself and we seem to be caught up in a social atmosphere that resembles the middle years of this century. Fashion magazines portray styles that were once in vogue in the late 40’s and early 50’s, and society has become ob­ sessed with returning to the "happy days” of the early 50’s, absorbing the history and trivia of that decade. The biggest selling game of 1984 has been Trivial Pursuit A- a game which relies entirely on the past to determine the winner. Editorials and comments have been written on children’s relationships with their parents and how the two generations are getting along better today than in the ridiculous 60’s. Today’s young people are said to resemble the passive youth of the 40’s and 50’s, concerned more with tear­ ing down goal-posts than tearing up the present social structure. A closer look at our society may reveal a dif­ ferent story. We think nothing of doing our bank­ ing and financing with a computer-teller, and have even allowed home computers to establish our status in society. "T Almost every type of retail business employs the use of electronic surveillance equipment to make sure the customer stays on the right side of the law. while the law itself has a complete statistical file of every citizen. And we may have averted a “Big-Brother 1 type dictatorship by stopping men like Hitler. Stalin, and Khomeini, but the fate of the world could still be determined by one person’s deci­ sion to begin a nuclear holocaust by simply pushing a button. In an introduction to 1984. Walter Cronkite best sums up the present situation. “It has been said,” starts Cronkite, “that 1984 failed as a prophecy because it succeeds as a warning—- Orwell’s terrible vision has been averted. Well, that kind of self-congratulations is to say the least, premature. 1984 may not arrive on time, but there’s always 1985.” —Barb Gellotr “DYING” IN THE GRASS in front of the MSU Auditorium is a member of the SAFE organization.

Students flocked to local stores in search of the perfect costume to attend the evening’s festivities in. Later that night when a party in Cedar Village erupted into a violent clash between students and police, with many arrests and injuries, the night was anything but festive. The problem of block parties was back to haunt the citizens and students of East Lansing. Tom Hitch, assistant city attorney, was in­ volved in “prosecuting the'ordinances on behalf of the city.” He felt that the big problem was the “conflict of competing interests and values in the community and the students. The students should have acknowledged laws of excessive noise and conduct when planning these large parties. Students can have fun but they should stay in boundaries of all East Lansing laws. “Michigan State is the largest university in Michigan that functions on quarters. Approx­ imately 10 to- 20 percent of the students that have attended the block parties were from differ­ ent universities. Block parties have been an open door for kids stuck inside the dorms and apart­ ments. The weather breaks and school is out so late, so many students want to play outside. ” The city did not want to hurt the students. The residents’ main concerns were to “keep traf­ fic lanes open for emergencies, holding down the noise and control the drunk and disorderly. ” The East Lansing Police have tried to uphold a professional manner during these events. Captain Tom Hendricks stated, “We are not against anyone having a good time, but we are against people infringing on residents’ private property and there had to be a limit. The stu­ dents, when planning and engaging in the par­ ties, should have been adult about the situation, therefore the police wouldn’t have to have gone over there [referring to the riot during Hallow­ een], Some of the areas have gotten out of hand. Council member Dave Balas agreed. “As long as the party is kept under control, conducted in an orderly manner and privacy isn’t invaded or property destroyed, block parties are fine to have.” The trouble seemed to be caused by outsiders who didn’t have much concern about the city. Balas felt that “the issue had gotten out of hand; however, the way the police went into this was standard reaction.” The city council tried to form a joint committee with Michigan State students. The council was trying to find ways for both students and resi­ dents to enjoy living in East Lansing. The main focus was on the neighborhood where the par­ ties got started, and eventually spilled over on residents’ yards. “Students are adult people and should have had enough responsibility to control them­ selves,” stated Hitch. The Human Relations de­ partment became more involved with trying to produce an agreement. Hitch said, “Students have to appreciate the situations that neighbors and the city find them­ selves in. While they’re having fun, they have to recognize the laws and appreciate the rights of others. ” Balas also agreed that “East Lansing and Michigan State students can come to some agreement.” Some city ordinances have come under fire as being too general. If the definitions were tight­ ened up students would have a clear under­ standing of what they can and cannot do. The main problems have resulted because of poor communication and understanding between students and residents. This is the reason that block parties becarrje an issue. Police answered the residents’ complaints with force, which the students resented.

College campuses are traditionally the place where innovative ideas take off and flourish, and fashion is no exception! The styles this year go from crazy to colorful and wild. The 50’s were conservative and the 60’s were “far-out and groovy. ” Seventies styles were slightly tacky with the advent of polyester, but in the 80’s a new fashion revolution has struck with a basic “anything goes” ideology. Movies and rock stars have had a large influ­ ence on what people wear. Look at the torn sweatshirt Flashdance-look, now passé, but very popular last year. This year Michael Jackson gave us the short pants and leather jacket look, courtesy of his music videos. Leather is in again, in pants, skirts, shirts, jackets or whatever! The jackets are shorter and more tapered at the waist than they were when they were popular in the 70’s. The shoulders are padded and wider. The pants are definitely shorter for men and women. Men are showing ankles that haven’t been seen since ’59. Women are showing a little calf in the second debut of cropped pants. The college prep look of the late 70’s and early 80’s is going down, finally! The hot pink sweaters with the whale cords are definitely out, out, out! Although the prep-monstrous clothing has gone under, basic conservatism is, and al­ ways will be, in, especially for men. The comfort­ able cotton polo and the crisp oxford button down shirts will always suit any man, as well as khaki pants and the timeless loafer. Bermuda shorts and boat shoes will also always remain a necessity in any man’s wardrobe. Women can also continue to wear these timeless basics. Look around at the Greek Scene, where the preppy look was most popular. Most Greeks have left the pink and green scene behind, replacing it with fun, faddy, colorful clothing. Espirt and Generra sportswear sold like it was going out of style (no pun intended) at East Lansing’s Town and Country Women’s Wear. The 100 percent cotton sweaters and sportswear were also big successes. Sue Bandelean, Town The hot pink sweaters with the whale cords are definitely out. out, out! and Country salesperson, said that students tend to be more conservative in the winter and more faddish in the spring. Soft angora sweaters and all types of vests sold like hotcakes in the fall, but now the Espirt Sportswear is what’s in de­ mand. Along with clothing, large gaudy earrings are being sold and worn all over. Bandelean said that the 80’s styles are a combination of several decades: drop waist dresses from the 20’s, fuller skirts and cigarette jeans from the 50’s, and geometries and bright fluorescent col­ ors from the 60’s. The biggest colors right now are neutrals, pastels and sophisticated black. The jean jacket craze which started a couple of years ago still remains popular on the campus scene. Of course the collar has to be up to get the full effect. This year the look isn’t quite righ: unless Vournay or Rayban sunglasses on a nylon cord are worn with it. These glasses, which are priced around $60, are worn not only in the sun, but on cloudy days, in the classroom, and most definitely at parties. At that price who’d want to take them off! Hairstyles have taken an interesting turn in the last couple of years. We all remember the commercial of the nerdy looking guy with greasy hair being told “the wet head is dead!” Well that wet head has come back life on both women and men. The cut is short on the sides and curly on top, and the entire head is saturated with non-drying gel to give the appearance of the wet look. Women’s hair is less curly and more blown and teased, with a lot of volume on top. Super-short is in, along with the blunt shoulder length. The 20’s bob has made a striking com­ eback with its sharp line and alluring Vogue look. Men’s hair is continually creeping down the neck for a longer, shaggier look in back. The styles today are more fun and easier to wear. The colors all match depending on how you want to put them.

In 1980, MSU had its peak year for enrollment. Since then, how­ ever, the enrollment has dropped for three straight years. Meanwhile, the tuition has gone up steadily over that period. The all-time high in enrollment was 44,940 students in 1980, but it declined by almost 3,000 stu­ dents the next year, and for fall 1983 it was 40,122. Since the number of students has dropped, the school has had to generate more revenue, and accordingly has raised tuition rates the past three years. For example, an upper divi­ sion student who resides in Michi­ gan paid $45.50, up $4 from 1982-83. But why is the enrollment drop­ ping? Dr. Moses Turner, vice pres­ ident for Student Affairs and Serv­ ices, says that enrollment in 1980 was superficially high. “Perhaps the most dramatic factor was the fact that were were a championship basketball team,” Turner said. (MSU won the NCAA title in 1978p; 79). Turner said that other factors in­ cluded shrinkage of the pool of graduating high school seniors in Michigan, and the souring eco­ nomy. “A number of people are leaving the counties from where we get most of our students, are in fact leaving the state and going other places to seek jobs and job oppor­ tunities. ” Many people feel that decreased enrollment has brought about in- [creases in tuition, and vice versa. the tuition “Certainly as in­ creases at any given level there are la certain number of students that from attending are precluded MSU, ” said Bob Lockhart of MSU’s Office of Planning and Budget. “Stop charging tuition and see : what happens to enrollment, ” said Peter Fletcher, an MSU trustee. However, Turner doesn’t think PART OF EVERY student’s life is finding out when to register to (avoid the long lines, and how much (poorer he/she’s going to be after coming out of the pit. there is a real connection between tuition costs and enrollment prob­ lems. “I don’t think that there is any real relationship. I don’t think that the enrollment drop has meant that we’ve had to make significant re­ projections in the level of tuition that we charge to students. “We are concerned about the level of tuition and the cost of edu­ cation in Michigan. We believe it is high. We believe it is too high. We also know that in order to provide the quality of education that an in­ stitution like MSU provides, it takes dents out of the educational mar­ ket,” he said. Does the University expect en­ rollment to continue to decrease? “No, we don’t,” Turner said. “We expect enrollment to level off in the near future. Decreased en­ rollment is not a devastating factor to the University. It is not the major impact. We’re concerned about making sure we do the best that we can to recruit students who are able to function at MSU. “To this point we believe the level of decreased enrollment is manageable. We believe that we “We are concerned about the cost of education in Michigan . . . We believe it is tOO gh.”—Dr Moses Turner dollars,” Turner said. Others, like Trustee Fletcher, do not share the same sentiment as Turner. Both Fletcher and Trustee Blanche Martin voted against the tuition increase for 1983—84. Fletcher said he thought the Uni­ versity did not “act with the integrity of exploring other alternatives first. ” He added it is “unconsciona­ ble that we would raise it (tuition) far beyond inflation (levels). “Tuition should not be an au­ tomatic monetary scapegoat be­ cause it’s the easiest one available. We can’t price people out of the educational arena that way. ” Fletcher said the students are so “fractionated politically” that it is easier for the school to deal with them than faculty or administrators. “You don’t hear of too many tuition strikes,” he said. Blanche Martin said he has “al­ ways been strongly against passing the burden on students. “It’s incumbent on us to find (al­ ternatives) so we don’t price stu­ are dealing with it, and we believe that it is going to work itself out,” Turner said. “We don’t believe that we have to have 45,000 students to be a fantastic institution.” And what happens if tuition con­ tinues to go up? “Eventually you’ll have nothing but elitist members of society in higher education. We’ll have created a new economic royalty,” Fletcher said. “I believe that’s di­ rectly contrary to American educa­ tional tradition. ” “There comes a point in time at which a provider of service has got to be concerned about pricing him­ self out of the market,” said James Wall, director of University Hous­ ing. Lockhart said the tuition increase should generate an estimated $6.6 million for the school. The Univer­ sity is operating on a projected $240 million budget this year, which also includes a $5.7 million cash management plan. In this plan, $5.7 million in expenditures is cut from the general budget. If the University hadn’t done this, they would have a deficit, Lockhart said. The school had an operating deficit of about $12 million for 1982-83. Lockhart also said that the main reason for the tuition increase was the higher cost of running the Uni­ versity, of which 75—80 percent is salary increases for University em­ ployees, some because of nego­ tiated contracts and some resulting from action by the Board of Trus­ tees. Higher utility expense was another factor in the increase. Charles Krupka, chairperson of Associated Students of MSU, said they recommended a smaller tui­ tion increase than the approxi­ mately 10 percent hike that was passed by the Board of Trustees. ASMSU suggested that tuition be raised 8.4 percent, University em­ ployee salaries be raised 5.6 per­ cent and that the cash management plan involve a 3.79 percent cut­ back. (The actual cash manage­ ment plan was a cutback of almost 3 percent). “We got yelled at by The State News for the tuition level increase, but we felt the need to keep salaries up with inflation, so we don’t lose anybody [faculty],” he said. As far as 1984—85, it is too soon for University officials to make a de­ cision. Lockhart said they are “awaiting receipt of Gov. Blan­ chard’s budget recommendations, and at that point we will examine our alternatives for 1984—85.” However, ASMSU’s Krupka says that in light of the proposed state funding increase of about 10 per­ cent, the school would be “hard- pressed to justify a tuition increase for next year. ” But they will have to wait and see until the University makes its proposals. —Corey Williams and Jeff Juterbock Enroilment/Tuition 25 Apathy and Antagonism: ASMSU Cuts Through Both and Gains Respect Tenpas. “They’re concerned that we don’t grossly in­ appropriate funds. They make sure our offices aren’t sneaking off with hundreds of thousands of dollars of funds.” “They” usually refers to Moses Turner, vice president of student affairs, who acts as inter­ mediary between the University and ASMSU. Both agreed that when Turner took time from his busy schedule to speak with then, it involved a matter worth investigating. “When we have complaints we speak with him,” said Tenpas. “He rarely comes here and says, ‘You guys are screwing up.’ Instead, he suggests areas that student government should look into.” “The University will suggest things to us, but it has no control over our purse strings. ” —Charlie Krupka Tenpas said the Board of Trustees appreciates ASMSU’s existence, as this way it avoids poten­ tial charges of favoritism towards specific groups. “We do things the University could not do,” said Tenpas. “They couldn’t sponsor concerts or other events because of operating costs for professional and student helpers. We have vol­ unteers. “They don’t always like what we say, because we’re critical at times. But the Trustees see a real value in having a group around that will raise student complaints or bring up areas that need attention.” that Tenpas added the University uses ASMSU as a “student sounding board” to un­ derstand the position of undergrads on various issues. He said ASMSU had been involved with 1983’s tuition increase, faculty and staff salay level increases and budget reductions. “Our position has usually been in the sarre general area of the University’s decisions was ” Tenpas said. As MSU’s student voice, does ASMSU actu­ ally speak for, and to, the individual students? Yes, and no, said Tenpas and Krupka. “Our attention is usually first directed at in­ fluencing people who will decide an issue, then at the students,” Tenpas said. “We rely on the college representatives, signs in the college and word of mouth to ■ inform the students of ASMSU’s activities.” This year ASMSU became more involved with the East Lansing City Council and its members. “We suggested alternatives for the nuisance or­ dinance just adopted and had two of our mem­ bers sit on the Human Relations Commission to alleviate conflicts between students and homeowners,” 'said Tenpas. He continued, ■“1983 is the first year ASMSU has endorsed, candidates for city council, and council members now call us to consult on issues.”1 Said Krupka, “We’re gaining respect from the students, administration and city council.” ASMSU’s extensive programs and services, including free legal assistance, small loans, funds for registered student organizations and various student programming, require money for their operation said Tenpas and Krupka. But, it became apparent, so did ASMSU itself. Last year, according to Tenpas, operating ex­ penses for the governing body, actually com­ prised of three separate entities: Student Board, Programming Board and Funding Board, to­ taled $207,000. This included salaries for sup­ port staff, a secretary and part-time attorney for Legal Services, bookkeeping and other ex­ penses. The three ASMSU boards receive the following share of every $3 collected from un­ dergrads each term: Programming Board, $1.40; Student Board, $1.00; and Funding 'continued Board, $0.60. Mf ■What Ron Tenpas and Charlie Krupka need­ ed in their office were some books. Comic books might have worked nicely as an anti-establish­ ment gesture. Or maybe a backpack’s worth of textbooks would have been the answer. Visitors peering into the room at the end of a long hallway on the third floor of the Student Services Building may have, at first visual exami­ nation, surmised that Tenpas and Krupka were just two more members of Cecil Mackey’s exten­ sive entourage. They would have been wrong, of course. If these two leaders of the Associated Students of Michigan State University-||the primary stu­ dent governing body of MSU—would have thrown a few textbooks around here and there, they could have provided a better symbolic rep­ resentation of whose side they were really on. Tenpas and Krupka, as executive director and chairperson respectively, of MSU’s “student voice,” have been inflicted more than occasion­ ally with a case of figurative laryngitis. They have been the ones, after all, who were ultimately responsible for the $3 tax collected each term from undergraduate students. That’s more than $300,000 that passed through their office during the year. * And the University, which collects the tax dur­ ing registration and subtracts a small fee before handing it to ASMSU, has about as much say in how the money is spent as they do in telling the local Taco Bell how to make their Burrito Supremes. A fact, the young executive agreed, worth smiling about. “The University will suggest things to us,jfl Krupka said, “but it has no control over our purse strings.” But how much influence can the University, chiefly the administration and the Board of Trus­ tees, have on ASMSU when it “suggests things?” While the University is concerned that ASMSU “operates within University policies and repre­ sents the students,” the MSU bureaucracy doesn’t make decisions for ASMSU, explained RON TENPAS, ASMSU’s executive director! proves that his entire life is not spent in meet­ ings or on the phone. (He did have to dash off to a meeting right after this photo, however.) Student Government CHARLIE KRUPKA’S PROBLEMS at ASMSU seem small and insignificant compared to those faced by his hero, Conan the Barbarian. MOSES TURNER, vice president of student af­ fairs, confers with ASMSU’s student leaders regularly, but when he makes a special call to them, they know it’s important. Tenpas said that some of ASMSU’s organiza­ tions and activities are self-supporting. For example, Pop Entertainment, which promotes popular music concerts at MSU, made a 1982 profit of $33,000. The Funding Board allocates $15,000 a term to registered student organiza­ tions and receives between 60 and 70 applica­ tions from groups requesting funds. Despite the progress ASMSU has made in the past two years, Tenpas and Krupka said they have had their share of antagonism. “Last year The State News wrote a negative editorial about AS MSU.because we were think­ ing of charging students $5 for using Legal Serv­ ices,” Krupka said. “I was mad because it wasn’t researched thoroughly. The issue came and went down in committee the day before the editorial was published. If they had talked to me there wouldn’t have been a problem. ” In the spring of 1981 ASMSU was confronted with strong opposition when student religious organizations were angry because ASMSU was funding the Lesbian/Gay Council. Tenpas said that about 100 members of vari­ ous religious groups came into the ASMSU of­ fices and requested their government tax refund. He added that because the taxes were returned — totaling approximately $300 — ASMSU later denied a request by one of the groups when they asked for office space. “Although the ugly head of apathy still stands in the way,” Krupka said, “people are beginning to wake up and say, ‘wow.’ But there are a lot of people who don’t give a damn. They’re here to pass and get the hell out of school. ” —Todd Carter THE OLYMPIC TORCH RELAY, which was spon­ sored by ASMSU, only went through one college campus, and MSU was it.

PENN IS CONGRATULATED after her win by another contestant. 1 DtWKi Frem Oavid Hëen j 28 Miss Black MSU MISS BLâCK IS BâCK Davxî freers Miss Black MSU is back. The, annual Miss Black MSU pageant disappeared from the cam­ pus scene last year after the group which usually ran it, Nouveau Noir. dissolved due to organiza­ tional problems. But an ambitious group of stu­ dents. unwilling to let the important tradition die, formed the Organization for Miss Black MSU. Led by Director Elaine Cosme and Assis­ tant Director Kim Gunn, the new group spent last year planning the 1984 pageant, which was held on April 19, at 7 p.m. in the Great Hall of the Wharton Center. According to Gunn, this ¡year’s pageant was a ground breaker which es­ tablished the new organization on campus. . Miss Black MSU is not, to the surprise of many, a beauty pageant. Gunn explains, '‘Miss Black MSU is a liaison between the minority students and the administration and majority students on campus. ” Because the Miss Black MSU Organization is looking for a top quality person to represent . if I could take each one of these gems and place it on each woman’s head, I would, because you can’t be queen alone.” —Kimberly Perm K minority students, candidates for the pageant I must go through a long screening and judging I process.

The results were them combined with the * text category, talent, which nine judges scored | he night of the pageant. The total score deter- I mined the three semifinalists: Brenda Murphy, i.aDon Hughes, and Kimberly Penn. A final iuestion decided the new Miss Black MSU. 1 The winning answer came from Kim Penn, a I -enior communication major from New Jersey. Ü VVhat would you tell freshmen minority stu- 1 tents about Michigan State Univesity?” she was 1 -’..-ked. Perm paraphrased her response. "First. | . would tell them to stick together and help each if other. Secondly. 1 would tell them to use all the » ■■'souicus available on campus. And. thirdly, to I communicate with the faculty and administra rion because they’ve been here and they’re part of the history, the roots, of MSU." Penn, who also won both the Miss Personality and Miss Congeniality awards, is president of the Undergrduau? Student Board of Communi cation and Minority Aid. and Complex Coor­ dinator for the Minority Aide Programming Of­ fice. She was also nominated as one oi 25 out­ standing students at MSU and received a senior achievement award from the Office of Black Af Besides having the chance to serve .is a role model for minority students. Penn "wanted people to realize that there’s a lot of talent here at Michigan State University " She choreo­ graphed and performed a tap dance routine to Duke Ellington’s “It Don’t Mean a Thing” for; the talent segment of the competition. According to Penn, her band, a group of students that she got together only two weeks before the pageant, is proof of the incredible talent here at MSU. “They did a dynamic show,” she exclaimed. Penn thought everyone in the talent competition was tremendous. “They crowned one woman that night, ” she stated, “but all six of those other women were definitely outstanding. ” In addition to the beautiful crown and one dozen roses that Penn received, she also won a $500 scholarship from the organization and a trophy. The first runner-up, LaDon Hughes, and the second runner-up, Brenda Murphy, received trophies as well. And all three women won a variety of gifts and prizes donated by local businesses and organizations. Penn was sponsored by McDonel Hall, where she lives. She emphasized, “My hall has been fantastic! They helped me from the very begin­ ning. They sponsored me; and it wasn’t just the ; Black Caucus, it was the government too.” She pointed out that the caucus and government all bought tickets and attended the pageant to­ gether. AH seven contestants—Lorna Beard, Robin Brown, Kimberli Holmes, Pam Houston, Hughes, Murphy and Penn—worked long and hard for two terms to prepare for the pageant, rehearsing every Friday night and Saturday af­ ternoon. But the women had their share of fun too. They had a slumber party one night, and the organization hosted a party for them at Sen­ sations on another. The friendships and close­ ness that developed between them were, ac­ cording to contestant. Kim Holmes, "the best thing about the whole pageant."

DESK RECEPTION­ ISTS are usually not this pig-headed about furnishing necessities such as garbage bags, magazines, tools, equipment^ and of course, the ever-pop- ular toilet paper. It’s Winter Term and the Living Is_Easier ore MSU students were making their homes in one of the campus’ many residence halls this year than last Figures as of Oct. 7, 1983 show that 16,218 students live among the 24 resi­ dence halls. A number of relatively new offerings through­ out the residence hall program have made this living option more attractive to some students according to Jerry Puca, administrative associate for housing and conferences department of re­ sidence halls. Puca said the changes that have been made are to lure students back to, or keep them in the residence halls. These changes are three­ fold. The first, which was started in 1982® 83, was the development of the three meal plan system. According to Puca this has proven very successful; it offers the dorm student the choice of a 13-, 15-, or 20-meal plan package. The 13-meal plan offers students two meals a day, Monday through Saturday, and one meal on Sunday. The 15-meal plan provides three meals a day Monday through Friday, but no week-end meals. For those students who like all three meals Monday through Saturday, and both meals on Sunday, the 20-meal plan is another option. These are the most popular, as 65 per­ cent of the students in the residence halls have opted for the 15- or 20-meal plans, Puca said. Residence halls are also attracting off-campus and commuter students to their cafeterias by offering special lunch plans or any of the other meal options to them. The second way the residence halls have in­ creased their occupants this year is by playing up the option of single rooms. Over 120 more single rooms are being used this year compared to last. The only real problem this has caused, said Puca, is the over assignment of students as a result. Over assignment forces three students to live in a room built for two, due to lack of I space. Most of the over assignments, however, ] were corrected by the beginning of winter term. Sometimes, Puca noted, students choose to re main tripled and, as a result, each receives a refund on their room expenses at the end of every term. Other residence hall living options that are unknown to most students are the on-campus apartments and halls without meals. Williams Hall and VanHoosen Hall offer rooms only with kitchenettes on every floor, while apartments are found in Akers Hall. “The residence hall apartments and room onlys are a very, very popular option,” Puca said. Another choice that students have within the residence hall system is specially designated dorms. For example, Emmons Hall is an all-male residence, while Yakeley-Gilchrist is for females only. Bryan Hall is a quiet dorm and Honors College floors can be found in both Mason- Abbot and Case Halls. The most successful tactic to lure Spartans back in the dorms has been the campus-wide ad campaign, said Puca. This advertising, which began in the spring of 1983, appeals to a stu­ dent’s urge to live in the easiest possible environ­ ment—the residence halls. So, as many stu­ dents have seemingly found out for themselves this year, the living is really easier in a MSU residence hall. —Sue Snell A PHONE is an absolute necessity in every dorm room, be it for ordering pizza or talking into the wee hours of the morning to a long-distance loved one.

Tales From the Cauldron Residence hall cafeteria food. It9s amazing the images those four little words should really be heard. After all. cooking for approximately 500 or more people every meal is not the easiest job in the world. Gary Stevens, a 21-year-old economics senior, has worked in London Hall cafeteria for three terms, the last two as a student cook. "I try to make the food look as good as possible. I really feel bad when people complain. I mean, they're my friends! I have to live with them. " conjure up: pans of Johnny Marzetti with a thin film of burned noodles on the top, soggy french fries, greasy hamburgers and all the other wonderful delicacies prepared for unsuspecting Spartan tummies. Now, to be fair, the cooks'side of the story Stevens feels that people have bad feelings associated with cafetena food. "It looks really good when it’s in the kitchen, but when you take it out and put it on the serving line behind that little piece of glass, it loses something. “J think people expect too much. They want restaurant food and they're only paying $3 or $4 for it. You get what you pay for. / mean, if they really don’t like it. they can eat cold cereal. ” Wendy Wink, also a student cook at London, agrees. “I get sick of heanng people complain when there's not a whole lot we can do about it.

Dorm Living 31 THE DORM ROOM could be yours for just $60 and a lot of hard work. HAVING A ROOM like this one makes coming home to study a pleasurable experience. SOME STUDENTS JUST aren’t content with the basic room they are given, so they work dili­ gently to modify it to their standards. 32 Dorm Rooms Every student at Michigan State has had the same sinking feeling in his or her stomach after walking into that first dorm room. The walls are bare, the floor is bare; everything is stark, empty and lifeless. The question, “I have to live here?! ” quickly runs through the mind, followed closely by visionsy>f mom and dad’s cozy abode back home. Some students do a better job of making their rooms a reflection of themselves and how they like to live: All it takes is a bit of patience, a bit| more money and a whole lot of time and effort. Sean Reymann built a three foot platform in 203 East Akers, which served as a uniquMoft. Reymann slept underneath the platform, which covered approximately half of the floor space in his room. The'top of the platform serve|Iapi a study area, with the desk next to the window. Reymann said, “It's practical and utilizes the space efficiently. Another advantage is that it’s warmer sleeping under the platform. I’d say there’s a 15-20 degree difference in tempera­ ture. Reymann attained most of the building mate­ rials from the remains of a platform built by residents who lived on his floor last year. Costs came to $100 for thé platform and $20 for the carpeting. Reymann designed the platform him­ self and spent about 50 hours constructing it. He Sated emphatically! “Your room should be creative and comfortable; an expression of your personality. ” Tim Korcal and Bob Strack of 523 West McDonel Hall echoed this viewpoint. Korcal and Strack had a platform which was lifted by a hydraulic system to reveal a waterbed. The plat­ form was carpeted and on one side had a lighted bar, complete with modular stereo system, re- frigerator and phone.

THE BAND FORMS a bow tie to go along with its “That’s Enter­ tainment” half-time show. 34 Band/Flag Corps PRIDE dND EXCEUENCE Marching Band defines Spartan Spirit even if the football team doesn’t deserve it have been a part of this group because “you always have someone to turn to. ” Unfortunately, this closeness caused some­ thing of a culture shock at the end of the season. A part of their lives was suddenly gone, a traumatic blow for anyone. At their last meeting they watched the film of their last half-time per­ formance and sang the MSU Shadows. That day was an emotional one; this was possibly the last time they would see each other. Good-byes were said to the senior members who would not be returning and tears were shed for the close ties that dwindled after the season. Everything must end, yet new beginnings are always in the future. The band’s new beginning comes with choosing new band members for the next season, which is a difficult process. Every year each member must go through audi­ tions to compete for his or her position, with no guaranteed positions to veterans. This process ensures the band to be comprised of only the best musicians. Pride and excellence has been a standard up­ held for years by past Spartan Marching Bands and one that will continue to be upheld by the bands of the future. In addition to the musicians, the marching band also includes a flag corps and a baton twirler. Lisa Rumple, a junior from Glen Ellyn, Illinois, is the feature twirler for the band. Twirling since age six, she competed for 15 years before retir­ ing in 1982. It was at this time that she won the highest award in baton twirling, Senior Division Grand National Champ. Since then, she spends her time with the band and instructing others in twirling. The flag corps consists of a 36 member work­ ing flag corps and ten Big Ten flags. Under the instruction of MSU flag corps alumni Carol Ebenhoeh, the flag corps adds a touch of color to the band with their new, bright yellow uni­ forms. In addition to color, they also add to the mood of the music with their flags. —Michele Ferenchick TJLhe Spartan Marching Band has been praised by sportscasters and band directors across the country as being one of the nation’s finest. On our own campus, faculty and students have lauded the band for the excellent job they do in rousing spirit in the crowds of football fans. Pride and excellence, an ideal description of the band, has by no means gone without notice. The marching band has put a great deal of work into upholding their fine reputation. Under the direction of Dave Catron, they practice ap­ proximately 20 hours per week during the reg­ ular football season. Before classes even begin, the band members have a week of pre-season practices which run 12 tiring hours per day. Dur­ ing this time they have their music rehearsals, marching drills and calisthenics. A part of the athletic department, the marching band works with as much ardor to maintain their physical stamina as any sports team does. Tuba player Phil Bertolini remarked, “You have to love it to do it. It is a lot of hard work.” The Spartan Marching Band started in 1870 as part of the ROTC program. That was 26 years before the start of organized football. The last in the Big Ten to become co-ed, the marching band was an all-male organization until 1973. To maintain the unified “all-male” look, the: band set strict uniform codes. Band members cannot have hair touching the collar of their uniforms nor are they allowed to have beards. The band has been very close this year, off the field as well as on. Band members felt a great deal of camaraderie and many friendships developed as a result of this past marching sea­ son. “There is a special bond between band members,” according to trumpet player, Mary Patton. This closeness is common among mem­ bers and enables them to help each other, espe­ cially the freshmen who had adjustments to make upon entering their first year of college. For the freshman band member, this 300 person “family” was the first thing they encountered at MSU. Many of the freshmen looked toward the veteran members for help which ended in close friendships. One trumpet player felt fortunate to (Above left:) LUGGING A TUBA around all day for eight hours becomes hot work when the band starts practicing before fall term. SPARTY STANDS BEHIND and for everything “the best band in the land” does. Members come armed with > clubs and shields and play medieval music on flute recorders, at the Society for Creative Anacn- ronism meetings. In fact, if you attended a meet­ ing, you would probably think the only mediev al elements missing were King Arthur, Lancelot and fire-breathing dragons. SCA, which is a national group, takes medieval tmes and events and tries to recreate them in such a way that modern people would enjoy them. F antasy The Society for Creative Anachronism and the Star Trek Club are only two of the more creative groups on campus “Members of the group are really unique, in- aginative and creative,” said RoseAnn Miller, who has been in SCA for eight years. -‘What makes us so special is that we are willing to let go of reality. ” SCA also sponsors events featuring competi­ tions between group members every weeken d. Although no prizes are awarded to winners, Mil­ ler said that personal honor and satisfaction cause participants to seek strong finishes. During events, many SCA members dress in self-con­ structed, elaborate medieval costumes. In order to achieve true authenticity, group members re­ search how medieval people actually dressec. Extensive group research has also taken place in the area of medieval fighting, making it the most exciting aspect of the group. During these battles, SCA members, clad in suits of armor, ANOTHER CAMPUS GROUP, SAFE, protests nuclear weapons outside the MSU Auditorium. WHEN MEMBERS of the Society for Creative Anachronism practice their medieval fighting, they wear suits of armor similar to this. «8 36 Groups will duel with sword-like weapons until a victor emerges. “The fighting is as real as can be allowed while also ensuring safety to the fighters,® Miller said. | “The intensity recreates the spirit of actual medieval tournaments with chivalry and bravery always being displayed.” Fighting is the only SCA event that has restrictions about who can participate. “All participants must be trained and certified to compete,” she said. One of the biggest events held by SCA is “The Pennsic Wars.” Members who participate live in tents and try to stay in medieval dress and manner for an entire weekend. “This weekend is meant to be a fun time for mem­ bers,” Miller said. “Last year 5,000 people at­ tended just so they could live entirely medieval for one weekend. There were even some people from Austrialia in attendance. ” SCA is only one of many MSU groups dealing with realistic subjects. In contrast however, other groups concentrate on fantasy and fiction. Although the new adventures of the Starship Enterprise crew ended with the cancellation of Star Trek in 1969, the memory of Captain James Kirk, Dr. Spock and other show characters lives on in members of the MSU Star Trek Club. The club, which has been in existence since 1974, has approximately 25 members and is “At meetings we’ll talk about new movies or upcoming conventions. Sometimes we even view film clips together and conduct trivia con­ tests.” To get the right Star Trek atmosphere, many members have replicas of Star Trek uniforms. However, Wilson said these uniforms, which are self-constructed, get only limited use. “Club members don’t usually wear their uni­ forms around or to meetings, but they are nice to have around for Halloween,” he said. “Occa­ sionally, we wear our costumes when we go to see a movie premier as a group, since there is safety in numbers.” When local Star Trek activities are exhausted, group members have the option of attending national conventions. Although Durgin and Wil­ son have both attended conventions, they said the opportunity to attend doesn’t occur often. “Since the conferences cost so much, many people can’t go. Because of this, the people who attend do so as representatives of our group,” Wilson said. Durgin said, “Conferences feature guest described by four-year members Nancy Durgin and Mark Wilson as being a social organization, speakers, trivia contests and a dealer’s table. Many members buy various pieces of Star Trek paraphernalia like Spock ears at the conven­ tions.” To keep all members informed of convention news and other group activities, the members try to publish a newsletter which contains both pertinent information and humorous stories. “Our newsletter is the Gothos Gazette, named after a Star Trek character,” Wilson said. “We publish it for all members whenever we can and it contains convention news, movie reviews and a serialized fictional story, ‘As the Enterprise Turns.’ “A lot of the members are very artistic and creative in their writing so they submit columns for the newsletter.” Durgin and Martin said the group anxiously awaits the release of the third Star Trek motion picture even though they have a general idea about what will take place. “We had a bootleg copy of the alleged official script from the upcoming movie so that was our big topic last fall,” Durgin said. “However, the script was supposedly changed. “One thing we’re not worried about is whether Dr. Spock will be alive in the new movie. Things that we’ve heard all say he will be.” —Jerry Serafini MEMBERS OF the Star Trek Club can finally join in the search for Spock this summer.

Finding a way to earn extra money in a city with a university in its backyard isn’t exactly easy. But some MSU students have found crea­ tive ways to make money. Mark Morgan, 22,. is one entrepreneur who owns a fruit stand on Grand River in front of Paradise. Morgan, a finance major from Water­ ford, purchased the fruit stand in June, 1983, and keeps it open spring and fall terms, Monday through Friday, depending on the weather. “I thought it would be a good learning experi­ ence and also profitable,” Morgan said. Learn­ ing to pay attention to detail and getting things done on time were part of his learning experi­ ence. Leila Mackle, a 21-year-old marketing major from Bloomfield Hills, started a sweatsuit paint­ ing business in the fall of 1981. “My mom brought back a modern painted from New York by Fiorucci. sweatshirt Everytime I wore it, I kept getting compli­ ments—I thought anyone could make some­ thing like this. ” Mackle worked out some designs, found a wholesaler in Detroit, and works out of her attic at home. “It’s a personalized business because the cus­ tomers can pick the color of the sweatsuit, the 38 Entrepreneurs designs, and the colors in the designs,” Mackle said. Sweatsuits run for $45, sweatshirts are $25, and nightshirts are $10. Those students who have taken Lash Lar- rowe’s Economics 200 class can appreciate Lynne Browne’s money making adventure. Brown, a 26-year-old advertising major from Haslett, accumulated four pages of word defini­ tions from the text-book and lectures and sold them for $2. “After taking Lash’s midterm, 1 wasn’t really happy with the results. I knew it was time to kick.:into gear for myself.” Brown received her Associate’s Degree in photography from Lansing Community College, and is in her junior year at MSU. Brown also makes trans­ parencies for overhead projectors if professors need them for classes. Tom Willets, 21, started his general mainte­ nance business in East Lansing this winter term, but has had several different businesses back home in Grosse Pointe. Willets, a junior majoring in general business, does any kind of home maintenance. Besides being a handyman, he bartends for weddings and other events. “There are so many students that want to work.

I’m in it to build a business, ” said Miller, who would like to build the business and then move on to something else. “If you're in it for the money, it's not worth it. It can be so frustrating,” Lonnemo said. Lonnemo, a math and business major, and Besemer, a computer science major, work on the programming while Campbell, an English major, is the financial planner. Lonnemo has had plenty of practical experience in computer programming; in the summer of 1982. he worked for Computer Consultants Inc., a subsidiary of American Way Service Corporation, and the summer of 1983. Lonnemo did some computer programming for the astro physics depart mem at Cornell University. Miller has a lot of faith in Michigan and plans on staying in East Lansing.

THE WALK DOWN the corridor to the interviewing rooms always seems longer when the interviewee is nervous. 40 Job Hunting Hunting Big Game in the Real World Students learn for bagging the of all animals: JL Those two words are music to the ears of most graduat- . ing seniors. And by September 1983, almost 80 percent of the June graduat­ ing class heard those, or similar words, according to John i D Shingleton, director of Michigan State University’s Placement Services. And if that figure sounds good, con-i side! that the average annual salary accepted rose from $17,048 in 1981-82 to $17,670 in 1982-83 for a bachelor’s degree. There are many ways for a student to increase his value in the job market and find that perfect job, according to j Shingleton. A good start is to obtain a placement manual j from Placement Services. The manual gives many pointers, I ranging from writing a resume to dressing for an interview. “Internships, co-op experiences, job experience, all these enhance employability. They give you career-related ex­ perience.1' Shingleton said. “We find the trend more so each year: employers want people with experience.” People with job experience in their fields tend to be pro­ ductive faster, and can see how others in their field work, thereby improving the retention rate, he added.

Shin­ gleton also advocates establishing contacts with professors from business, industry, government and education. All sectors and a few international employers.” he said. Of course, some fields of study have more openings than others. There is a high demand for technical skills, such as computer science, engineering, nursing and medicine. Low demand areas are arts and letters, journalism, psychology, and education Placement Services' busiest time are the months of October-April, but job interviewing goes on year-round. Right next door to Placement Services is the Student Employment Office, which works with Placement Serv­ ices. “We touch almost all students on campus in some way. through workshops, internships, or on-campus em ployment, ” Shingleton says. Also available is the Career Information Center, located in the basement of the Stu­ dent Services Building. All these resources aid students in finding potential employment. Shingleton maintains, and m turn help give Placement Services a good reputa­ tion around the country with employers. Placement Serv­ ices both seeks out and is sought out by employers. “They go where they get results. We can give them those results." he adds. Literally hundreds of prospective employers come to MSU to interview, including many major corpo­ rations.

The freshmen entry popula­ tion of handicapper students at MSU has in­ creased by 100 percent over the last four years to a current enrollment of 180. With its barrier removal programs, transportation services, in­ terpreters and reading room for the visually im­ paired, MSU far surpasses the services offered for handicappers at other state schools. Yet, there still are many obstacles to overcome before handicapped services aid students in the social and extracurricular activities rather than just dealing with survival skills: Judy Gentile, director of the Office of Pro­ grams for Handicapped Students, defined what she would like to see develop in the handicapper program in the future: “I’d like to see the con­ tinuing progress of barrier removal on campus. And, I’d like to see the University actively request more money from government and private in­ dustry so that we might acquire more resources. Also, there is a need for a training program for Interpreters for the deaf; there is a shortage of people who can do sign language on a higher education level Bn volving technical jargon. I’d like to see the University recruit more handicap­ pers. In terms of transportation we’re doing fine now, but next year is always another story.” “Accessibility is the biggest problem confront­ ing handicappers at MSU,” said Michael Bohlk„ co-director of the Handicapper Council. The University recently contributed $15,000 to cover half the cost of the replacement of a broken bi s for handicappers. “By next year,” Bohlig states, “they will have more people than they can han­ dle. They’ll need another driver and another vehicle; they need one this year. ” The adminis­ tration is making no effort to make the Univet- sity’s main bus system accessible to handicap­ pers. Although prejudice against handicappers does exist, it is usually because people have not had the opportunity to interact with a handicap­ per before. “It is very typical that they will react to a handicapper as an unknown object rather than as a person,” commented Gentile. “There is an old stereotype that if they can't see, feel, hear or walk then nothing else works. There are handicappers that are geniuses but people only look at the physical characteristics rather than at the essence of the person, ” Bohlig; added. Because of this initial prejudice, Gentile and Bohlig both contend that handicappers tend to be more outgoing than non-handicappers. Gen­ tile summed up the predicament, “One tends to notice the difference first, the crutch, the wheelchair . . . you initially make judgments on physical appearances because that’s all you have to go on. It takes actual interaction to break the old stereotypes.” —Michele Glance JUDY GENTILE, director of the Office of Pro­ grams for Handicapped Students, would like to see the University offer handicappers more than just survival skills. 42 Living with Handicaps PAM TREECE WHEELS out of the Wharton Center after seeing a performance.

Yet, she was much more. To those that knew her. Lome was an inspiration that prompted them to realize their potential and use their ability to the fullest. Lome was the first and only student at MSU who was both blind and in a wheel­ chair. A rare form of arthritis put her in a wheelchair at 14 and blinded her at 15. She was the first MSU student to have both of these disabilities. The fatal car accident which occurred three days before her 19th birthday cannot destroy the optimism she sparked in all she knew. Lori Yelk, a close friend, said. “Lome never let her handicaps get in the way. She saw them as a challenge, something that she had to overcome." Sponkowski was active in everyday life. She was interested in learning how the University functioned and served on the student-advisory committee for the Office of Programs for Handicapper Stu­ dents. She was active in a letter writing campaign to administrators protesting meal consolidation in the south complex dorms. The Office of Handicapped Students is considering starting a scholarship in Spon- kowski's name. Where the funds will come from, or the criteria for candidates, has not yet been determined. Yelk summed up Sponkowski's optimistic attitude in this way, ‘‘Lome felt ‘This is the way I am. I like the way l am.

The fulbright Scholarship is offered by the Fulbright Association as a means for students to broaden their views in another country. 1 he scholarship sets no guidelines except that the student must have full time status at all times. While In West Germany, Damm was very active in political issues He was one of three elected as a national leader of the Social-Lib ■ eral Student Association, in which he acted as a student party president. While holding this office, he spent his time in Bonn, the capital of West Germany, and spoke with the legislators on numerous student issues Damm came to Michigan State just after completing his term of office Once used to involvement. Damm found the lack of it here to be difficult After 44 Foreign Students sampling numerous groups on campus. Winfried decided to involve himself with Students Acting for the Future of the Forth, which is a public awareness organization. SAFE is involved in educating the. public on various issues: the most prominent is the disarmament issue Winfried states that SAFE is the only group on campus that followed his own polilical interests to educate and help the public. Damm has participated in many SAFE sponsored events, including monthly vigils on Farm Lane Bridge, to protest the arms race and bring disarmament, to clear public view. Damm has also been involved in a midnight vigil at Beaumont Tower and a walk at Williams International in Walled Lake, ali in protest of the armament issue and in support of a nuclear freeze. On October 22. approximately Jour million people, demonstrated in Europe, one million alone in West Germany, against the deploy ment of the Pershing II and cruise missiles in Germany.

Damm will continue his activity here until he returns to West Germany. “Because the Americans should recognize more. I am —Michele Ferenchick Foreign students may be confused, upset or delighted by Americans, but never bored Only four percent of the students attending MSU are foreign students. Because of their small number, several organizations have been set up to assist the foreign students. One of these is International Interactions, which is the largest volunteer program on campus. Over 100 Amer­ ican students spend three to five hours per week with the foreign student they have been matched up with. This service provides the foreign student with the opportunity to participate in everyday conversation and also introduces them to Amer­ ican students. The students that they meet help them to adapt to their new environment and provide the friendship that they had to leave in their home country. International Interactions aids both the foreign student and the student volunteer. It helps the foreign students to be­ come acquainted with their new surroundings and helps volunteers to become aware of cul­ tures different than their own. Another service for the foreign student is the English Language Center located in the Interna­ tional Center. This 10-week intensive English program is designed for students who need to . improve their english skills in order to succeed in their academic course work. Those who wish to study English may be admitted to the English Language Center without being admitted to MSU. All foreign students admitted to the Uni­ versity are given English proficiency tests. On the basis of these tests, students are either re­ commended for full time academic work or as­ signed to the appropriate level of study in the English Language Center. Bocar Diagana, a student from Senegal, came to MSU just for one term of English studies at AMR ABDEL-AZEEM works on his architecture portfolio so he can take it with him when he returns to Egypt after graduation this year. • the English Language Center. Upon completion of his English work, he went on to Kansas to pursue his studies in agricultural economics. Foreign students; come to MSU for a variety of reasons. Cecile Martin, a freshman from Paris, has hopes of someday owning her own restau­ rant. She studied English at Stanford University three years ago and decided then to attend col­ lege in the States. She narrowed her choices down to MSU and Cornell because of their repu­ tations for having outstanding hotel, restaurant and institutional management departments. After completing her studies here, she will attend the Ecole Hoteliere of Lauzanne, which is one of the finest culinary arts schools in Europe. When asked about the ¡Segree of difficulty in learning the English language, she said it was very easy to learn and wants to learn Italian next year. Amr Abdel Azeem. a student from Egypt, has another year to go before completing his studies in planning and environmental design. When he is finished, he will go back to Egypt and use his knowledge to better his country. At that time, he will be a specialist in his field and hopes to start hilown business. Housing is a problem in Egypt and he feels he must do something to help. AzeemBiad to apply through an agency to attend school here. He had waited for a year and a half and was told one week before leaving that he was accepted at MSU.

Each year many students transfer to Spartan country; Michigan State lures stu­ dents for a variety of reasons. Business major Sean Mullaney comes to State as a junior after attending both Central Michigan and Colorado State University. “The business school here is much better compared to the other schools’,” Mullaney said. The business school in Colorado was not even nationally accredited. “Coming out of high school I told myself that I’d NEVER go to Michigan State, but here I am,” he said. Mullaney will finish his last two years here simply because this school is “best suited for my major and you have to stay at one uni­ versity for at least two years in order to get your degree there.” Marie Wasylyk, a graduating senior, trans­ ferred to State from Oakland University to ex­ perience college away from her Sterling Heights home. MSU became her choice primarily be­ cause her major, packaging, was offered here. “I lost a lot of credits in the change, but it’s been worth transferring for me,” Wasylyk said. “I guess I just always wanted to go to Michigan State.” Senior Kristine Johnson transferred to State for the communications program. Her major, communications, was not even offered at North Park College, a four-year liberal arts college and seminary in Illinois. At North Park, Johnson lived on campus, 35 minutes from her suburban Chicago home. Johnson has experienced one major loss. “North Park was so homogeneous with my fam­ ily beliefs and ideas. I lost that; there is nothing here to remind me of those things,” she said. “I appreciate my parents and home life much more now than I did when I was in Chicago. But I love it here and I am glad I am away. ” Johnson has found many new opportunities at MSU that she had not been exposed to before. She joined a sorority, became active on the women’s crew team, and was also able to take classes, such as wilderness survival, that were not offered to her before. Not having the conveniences of a big city like Chicago took Johnson some time to get used to. “Shopping on Grand River just doesn’t com­ pare,” she said. And even the campus itself took some adjusting to; North Park College is two blocks square. “At first I thrived on the size of the campus and the number of people. I thought it was incredible that there are 40,000 people here, all relatively my own age,” Johnson com­ mented. “A couple things really surprised me,” she added. “I had no idea the extent of partying at a big school. I had always heard there was a lot of it at state universities, but I didn’t know it was this great.” She was also amazed at the alumni support. “We had some, of course, at North Park, but nothing compared to the parents dressed head to toe in their kelly green at all the tailgate parties.” For Johnson, out-of-state tuition at $91 a credit hour is cheaper than North Park tuition for Illinois residents. Mullaney is saving money also. For him it is cheaper to remain in Michigan rather in Colorado. Wasylyk, however, has had her costs increase greatly simply because she is no longer commut­ ing from home to a near-by university. than go out-of-state Would any of these students recommend others transferring to different schools? “I definitely think people should go out-of- state for a while just to see what it’s like,” Mul­ laney said. “But I would recommend transferring once not twice. When you transfer from one school to another it’s like going to a new home; Jt takes time to get used to being at a new col­ lege.” Johnson agrees with Mullaney. “Any less than two years at a place does not give it a fair chance,” she said. “I would highly recommend transferring to other people if they ever feel like they have the urge to try it. ” —Sue Snell kristr transfer! jferring t 46 Transfer/Older Students IH ~ì:'*5frl 'J HHHnBHiiiB mm -'•; *;.= ' Older, and Getting Wiser Lveryone has probably seen one of them sitting in a class.

Transfer/Older Students 47 The job of a resident assistant is much more than what most students believe it to be. The title of the position itself gives but a modest de­ scription of the responsibilities any resident as­ sistant is expected to carry out. A resident assistant, commonly known as the "RA." is an aid to the resident not only in pro­ viding information, often about planned pro grams and social activities, but also in enforcing certain rules and regulations protecting the rights of individuals and the rights of the residence hall system. This calls for communication and in­ teraction with the residents themselves, with the co working RAs, and with the senior staff mem­ bers, a higher group which looks out for the RAs. Usually the job provides an opportunity for the RA to become acquainted with a leadership position and with various thoughts and ideas of other people, hence acquainting the RA even more with himself or herself. Just the interview­ ing process alone is a motivating factor in apply­ ing for the job. It is a good opportunity to go through an actual interviewing situation, where thought-provoking questions are asked so that the applicant begins to learn more about himself or herself. Hélène Kalisewicz. a communications junior, stated, "I went through the process just to do it —and then got offered the job1" RAs must be flexible, open minded, friendly and outgoing. Other qualities such as leadership skills, communication skills, creative skills, and the abilitiy to maintain the "team concept," are also needed for the job. A key difference between this job and others is that most RAs are students as well, and are therefore able to i elate to both positive and negative aspects of the student lifestyle. Mark Giuffre, a sophomore history major, finds that being an RA is a "unique situation because it is a constant job." In most cases, the good seems to outweigh the bad. The major complaint by RAs is the minimal amount of personal time. More often than not. an RA s social life and activities are spent with the floor members. The idea of being a role model can also prove to be trying on an RA during certain circumstances. "As an RA. you have to bite your tongue a little bit." stated Paul Bommarito. an engineering junior. "You can't please everybody." The politics of the job, as in any other, is somewhat frustrating. But within MSU the sys­ tem is “a dynamic one." says Kalisewicz, "work ing to improve." When asked whether or not the job is a re­ warding experience, the answer is always ‘'defi­ nitely." Wendy Devenport, a James Madison, telecommunications junior said. "It's definitely a rewarding job. You gain a type of experience “It deals with every spectrum of life making it a supplement to classroom education.” —Mark Giuffre “It brings out the best of MSU—the best it can offer.’ Wendy Davenport “What you put into it is what you get out of it.

These three Michi­ gan State alumni all got their start in broadcast­ ing at the Michigan State Radio Network. They, like so many students now, had dreams of mak­ ing it big as they sat in the small studios of WBRS and WMCD spinning disks for their fellow stu­ dents in the residence halls. Whether their suc­ cess was from their own ambitiousness or their time at the MSU radio network is not known, but MSU radio did give them a taste of the real world which made them want more. Dave Hanna started out as a freshman disc jockey three years ago; now as a communica­ tions senior he’s head of operations for the net­ work. “Working here has given me a perspective on a field I otherwise would have known nothing about,” he said. He loves his job of running the network and surprisingly enough doesn’t have any plans to make it big in radio or TV. “The people I work with are good and it’s been a very enjoyable and educational three years, but I don’t know if this is what I’ll do when I get out. ” Hanna works very closely with General Man­ ager, Mark Conlon. Conlon, also an administra­ tive assistant in the physics department, serves as a liaison between the network and the Univer­ sity. Conlon’s main goal for the network at this point is to switch from it’s present AM carrier current to the FM frequency. Carrier current' means that the signal is carried through the elec­ trical wiring on campus, so the station cannot be picked up off-campus or in cars. “MSU stu­ dents deserve FM and many people have I worked hard,” he said.

They produce a bi-weekly variety show called “Uplink. ” MSU student Catherine Stuart hosts the half-hour show which features several segments of entertainment and conversation dealing with different issues. The Telecasters are a student organization in the department of telecommunications l and are advised by Bob Albers, a telecom­ munications professor. The 60 members meet once a week to consolidate their ideas and projects. Outside of these meetings, they’re busy filming, producing, writing and editing the show. “Uplink” featured the Homecoming ; Committee for an interview, a public affairs segment dealing with tuition hikes, a sports segment on intramural football, a movie comer reviewing current movies, a pianist and singer and a classical guitarist. They’re presently working on a deal with the MSU Theatre Department to review some of their productions on the television program before they go on stage. Besides “Uplink” the Telecasters, who are mainly telecommunications majors, produce “Face to Face,” a public affairs program dealing with controversial issues. This group is an ideal experience for members who are entering the field of television. They use the shows they produce for the organization on their resume tapes for interviews.

Bringing the Curtain Down on a Season of Extremes 70 Sports Year in Review The marquee on the State Theatre could have read “The Return of Dr. Jekyll and Mr Hyde,” but as it turned out, it didn’t. Too bad Hollywood directors didn’t see the potential of doing the movie however, because if they did, they could have had e field day casting the film with MSU athletes. Auditions wouldn't even have been neces­ sary. All the talent scouts would have needed to do was follow the MSU athletic program throughout 1984 and they'd be in business. No Spartan fan could realistically argue that appearances of a few of the MSU teams changed quicker than John Barrymore did when starring in the original film, so MSU athletes were a shoo-in. A quick look back to the performances of four MSU sports teams—football, basketball, wrestling and hockey—will prove that Hol­ lywood directors passed up a golden oppor­ tunity during 1984. Originally, Spartan fans thought 1984 would be THE year for their football team. Even before students arrived on campus, the MSU football team was raising the eyebrows on skeptics by being unbeaten and ranked 19th in the nation. MSU fans, who hadn t cheered for a Big Ten Champion since 1978, began to envision roses before their eyes. Once the students returned to MSU, season tickets were quickly sold out and the stage was set for an exciting fall in Spartan Stadium. But this excitement never materialized THE FOOTBALL SEASON started brightly, but after Yarema’s injury things bottomed out. ALTHOUGH CROSS COUNTRY is a grueling, brutal sport, runners seem to enjoy it. WITH THREE ALL-AMERICANS, the wrestling team gave even the most disheartened Spartan fans something to cheer about. for Spartan fans. As quickly as the Spar­ tans had established themselves as serious contenders for the Big Ten championship, injuries devastated the team and left fans heartbroken. What had previously looked ' like such a promising season turned into a disaster as the Spartans went on to finish the season at 4-6-1. Usually things get much worse before they begin to get better, and the plight of MSU athletics appeared to be following this course. As if the failure of the football team wasn't enough to put a damper on Spartan spirit, team’s showing the basketball poured salt into the fans’ wounds. Picked by several national polls to be a contender, the MSU basketball team was to make Jennison Field House come alive with the type of basketball that MSU was once noted for. Five years had elapsed since Ervin “Magic” Johnson and Gregory Kelseri had propelled MSU into the national spot­ light by winning the NCAA title, and Spartan; fans now saw Sam Vincent as being the saviour who would lead the MSU basketball team back to the promised land. The journey, however, was short lived and Spartan fans began screaming, "Deja Vur Like football, the basketball team’s start was excellent. The Spartans were 6-3 en­ tering the Big Ten season and appeared to be every bit as good as experts had pre­ dicted. But then injuries to Kevin Willis and Sam Vincent set in and the Spartans went on a seven-game losing streak. The skid ended any hopes the Spartans had about bringing a national championship back to East Lansing, MSU fans knew, only halfway ; through the season, there would be no invi­ tation to the NCAA tournament and a Na­ tional Invitational Tournament bid was only a faint possibility. Once the NIT passed the Spartans up, MSU fans finally realized that the dreams of a national championship were gone, and what remained was the bitter, but now familiar, taste of fallen hopes. Although the futility of the football and basketball teams was enough to start some Spartan fans packing for Ann Arbor, the performance of the wrestling and hockey teams helped restore some of the lost faith in MSU athletics. Aside from who would serve on the com­ mittee which would select MSU’s new pres­ ident, the best kept secret on campus in 1984 was the success of the MSU wrestl­ ing team. For the past 22 years, Head Coach Grady Peninger has never coached the Spartan wrestling team to a losing sea­ son; 1984 was no different. Led by four outstanding senior wrestlers, the Spartans finished ninth in the NCAA ■ tournament and were runners-up in the Big Ten for the second consecutive year. But since wrestling does not receive as much exposure as football and basketball, the team's success went virtually unnoticed to all but the most dedicated Spartan sports fans. Another reason the success of the wrestling team may have been overlooked was the peformance of the MSU hockey team. Not only did Head Coach Ron Mason lead the Spartans to their third consecutive CCHA championship in 1984, but he also coached the team to a berth in the final four—their first appearance since 1967. Spartans fans flocked to Lake Placid, the site of the NCAA hockey championships, hoping once more for the national champion­ ship which had eluded other 1984 MSU sports teams. Bowling Green, the eventual national champion, ended these hopes be­ fore they got off the ground however, by handing the Spartans a 2—1 loss in the opening game of the finals. Instead of at­ taching a negative connotation to the hoc­ key team's final-four performance, most Spartan fans viewed it as being the light at the end of a long dark tunnel. It had been a long time since a Spartan sports team received national attention, so by the end of the 1984 sports year, op­ timism once again reigned at MSU. The fail­ ures of the football and basketball teams appeared to be only a vague and distant nightmare. The Spartans appeared to be on a roll; the drought was finally over; Hol­ lywood will just have to wait—at least until next year. Sports Year in Review 71 From Bad To Worse Women tumble to cellar due to injuries and inexperience t was not an easy yean for Karen Den­ nis, the second-year women’s cross­ country coach. When she got the final word from the NCAA that star cross countr\ competitor Ann Pewe, hurt early in the 1982 campaign, would not be able to com­ pete for the Spartans in '83, things got bad. But, when she heard that her No. 1 recuit Cecile Gaines was hurt for the season and CATHY HOCHER CONCENTRATES as she stretches before a race. u ne of Midwest's Best The final two years of running women's cross country for MSU have to feel anti-climatic for senior Karen Campbell. In her freshman and sophomore seasons MSU was a powerhouse in the Big Ten and around the country and Campbell ran well at the NCAA's both seasons. As a sophomore, Campbell took third-place in the conference for the Big Ten champion Spartans and the team went on to finish third in the nation. Since that time it has been a series of disappointments for the distance runner from Woodridge, III. . In 1982, because of an illness, Campbell did not run well and finished 13th in the district, failing to run at the nationals for the first time in her col­ legiate career. The team too. took a turn KAREN CAMPBELL receives some last min­ ute advice from one of her coaches at the district meet. 72 Women’s Cross Country for the worse, failing to qualify for the nationals for the first time in history. In 1983 Campbell found herself on the comeback trail, hoping to make one last trip to the nationals, but again, the team was at a low period due to some injuries and ineligibilities. "The biggest drawback has been that I wasn't able to run with people who are as good fin practice)," Campbell said. "I'd always be looking to find someone to run with and I wouldn't be going all out.” But at the district meet at Forest Akers West Golf Course at MSU, Campbell ran her best race of the season. But. because of an NCAA qualifying rule that only chooses the three top women after the two top teams, Campbell was locked out of the NCAA's despite her 10th place finish. "The districts was one of my better races of the years. I was happy with it Campbell said. “The only reason I wasn’t more happy with it was because I didn't qualify for the nationals. But there were a lot of good runners who didn't make it because of the format. "There aren’t as many schools that have women's cross country teams, but those that do have quality teams. The quantity shouldn't matter, the quality of who is running should." Campbell isn't bitter, however. She's too busy getting in shape for the upcom­ ing track season, trying to return to the form that made her one of the midwest's best distance runners. —Eric Schurer senior Lisa Last was also unable to compete because of injury, things went from bad to worse. The Spartans, who won the conference championship two years ago, slid to fifth last season and fell all the way to the bottom of the Big Ten in 1983. "A combination of lack of depth and inex­ perience left us relying on freshmen walk- ons” Dennis said. “But, we had some bright spots.” The shiniest, of course, was Karen Campbell. Campbell was the leading finisher for the Spartans in all of their meets in 1983. She finished 10th in both the Big Ten meet and in the NCAA District IV race, both run at MSU’s own Forest Akers Golf Course. Campbell, a senior from Woodridge, III., was the Spartan’s top runner for the sec­ ond straight year in 1983. He time in the district race, her last cross country race as a collegiate, was her best time on MSU’s 5,000 meter course. Campbell missed going to the NCAA meet by two places, and if the women followed the same format the men did, she would've been able to finish her career at the NCAA championships in Bethlehem, Pa. But, with Campbell gone after the 1983 season, Dennis will rely on freshmen dis­ tance runners Anne Walker and Eileen Le- bold to improve on their first-year perfor­ mances in order for MSU to get back into winning form in 1984. “You can’t expect freshmen distance run­ ner to be contributers* Dennis said of the grueling workout necessary to compete in Big Ten cross country competition. “They have to have a lot of mileage before you can expect much of them. They break down be­ fore they get better. But we expect a lot of improvement from Walker and Lebold next year.” Junior Anne Beaujean will also be back and improvement will be needed from her if the Spartans are to move into the first di­ vision. But, as was 1983, next season will be a long, hard climb, meaning long hours of training, and hundreds of miles, for the Spartans to return to the top of the heap in distance running in the Big Ten. “A combination of a lack of depth and inexperience left us relying on freshmen. .. ” — Karen Dennis WOMEN’S CROSS COUNTRY Eastern Michigan Invitational: 7th place of 9 teams Western Michigan Invitational: 6th place of 9 teams MSU Cross Country Classic: 7th place of 8 teams MSU Quadrangular: 4th place of 4 teams Big Ten Championships at Illinois: 10th place of 10 teams —Eric Schurer NCAA District IV Championships: 14th place WOMEN’S CROSS COUNTRY TEAM: Front Row: Tammy Bergerowski, Janet Uulien, Ann Walker^ Lisa Last.

His best race came in the Big Ten championships when he finished tenth and beat all five of the U-M runners that beat him in the MSU-Michigan dual meet.

Out of the three, Tim Simpson, Rick Pietras and Mike Kavulich, someone will have to step in and take the leadership role that has been Irmen’s for two years. “Those three are all young, strong run­ ners who should do a lot of improving as they grow and get stronger,” Irmen said. Junior Tom Clark also gave the Spartans y Men’s Cross Country some depth in 1983 and should be ready for a big senior season next year. In Gibbard’s tenure at MSU he brought some very talented distance runners to MSU and he made others. Irmen was one of Gibbard's most successful projects, and the Irmen-Gibbard relationship has been a good one. “I guess I proved myself early in his eyes,” Irmen said. “We had a give and take relation­ ship, he puts emphasis on improvement, ded­ ication and hard work, so I fit his mold.” For Gibbard, the season ends an MSU cross country career that stretches back to 1958 when he began as an assistant coach here. He took over the top job in 1968. In those years the Spartans have seen the height of their cross country success. MSU has earned eight Big Ten cross coun­ try championships and two national titles under Gibbard’s tutelage. But lately the Spartans have fallen to some hard times in distance running in the Big Ten and Gibbard is ready to let a younger man take over the job. “I had a great time and I would do it all over again if I were a younger man,” Gibbard said. “And, recruiting has become so tech­ nical that is has become a young man’s job.” —Eric Schurer TOM IRMEN passes a runner from Central on his way to finishing 10th in his last Big Ten race. Even though it was going to be his last Big Ten cross country race, it didn't seem special to MSU's Tom "Bubba” Irmen. That is until he stepped up to the starting line. “As race time got closer and closer. I really started to think about it," Irmen said. "By the time the gun went off, I'd never been so emotional about a race in That emotion seemed to work wonders as the senior and four-time letter winner from Maumee. Ohio, went out and ran one of the best races of his life and finished 10th, by far the best for MSU. “I pushed all the way through that race, not like in some others, probably," Irmen said. "What got me going in that race, though, was at about half way through I saw my dad, and all he said was ’Don't quit now.' That really summed up the race for me at that point. I was in 14th at the time and I moved all the way up to 6th before finishing 10th. The 10th place finish was an improve­ ment of six places from the year before when Irmen missed All-Big Ten honors by one spot. But in 1983. the Big Ten reduced the number of all-conference runners to seven, and Irmen missed out “Oh well, there's always track sea­ son," the lanky, 6-foot-2. 165-pounder It is that kind of never-give-up attitude that has made Irmen one of the top distance runners in the Big Ten, and it has begun to pay off for him. Just one week after the Big Ten race in Illinois, the Spartans returned home to host the district championships at Forest Akers West Golf Course. Irmen again stole the show for MSU by finishing 14th out of more than 150 runners. His time of 30:52.8 for the 10.000 meter course was good enough to qualify him for the NCAA's in Bethlehem. Pa. Although he didn't have what he calls "a quality day" at the NCAAs, Irmen's biggest accomplishment was in the getting there. —Eric Schwer THE SPARTANS CONGRATULATE a victorious Purdue team after a well-played match.

Others sim­ ply refer to it as teamwork. Yet, no other word seems to better ___ describe the effort turned in by the 1983 MSU Volleyball team. When senior captain Kelly Becker went down wit-h-an injury on the second day of competition, the Spartans, as a team, were tested early. The result: a 17—17 overall mark, and the first .500 record for the Spartan club in three years. While Head Coach Annelies Knoppers was far from pleased with the Spartan’s eighth place finish in the Big Ten, she did feel that the campaign was a year of great improvement. Considering the 1982 squad finished a disappointing 9—22, her assessment is well founded. MSU's poor showing in the Big Ten stand­ ings was because most of the team's im­ provement came in the second half of the season. Unfortunately for the Spartans the majority of the Big Ten matches were played in the first half. It should also be noted that MSU needed time to jell without Becker in the lineup. “That was another reason for our slow start,” Knoppers said.iWe had to change our game plan with Kelly out.” Perhaps the biggest turnaround in MSU’s season occurred during the Spartan Invita­ tional Tournament, hosted by Michigan State. In winning the tournament, the Spartans defeated the number one team in Canada, York University, and highly rated Cleveland State, two clubs which most observers felt would outmatch MSU. That was the difference: following the tournament, Michigan State was clearly a different team. “Before that, it was just up and down,” . . - i m i l l •. Knoppers said. “We never really had a time when everyone was playing well together. After that, we played well and our offense began to show some consistency.” Much of MSU’s second half improvement was due to the solid and consistent play of several Spartans who turned in record set­ ting performances. Among them was junior Cheryl Histed who was a Big Ten All-Conference selec­ tion. Histed lead the squad with 436 kills, an MSU record. She also finished with a fine hitting percentage of .323. The Spartans were also paced by fine play of Gina Conroy. The junior setter was selected as a Big Ten player of the week during the season. Conroy found her way into the record books by recording an incredible hitting per­ centage of .909, and setting a serving mark of ten aces in a single match. Both of these statistics were Big Ten conference re­ cords. Fortunately for MSUHboth Histed and Conroy will be back in 1984, but that’s not all. In light of the fact that the Spartans will not lose a single player to graduation, MSU promises to field a squad deep in experience when the '84 campaign rolls around. Knop­ pers will have a core of four returning seniors and a fifth in Becker should she de­ cide to take advantage of her remaining year of eligibility. “Experience will help,” Knoppers said. “It takes so long to get people used to playing with each other.” With plenty of excitement projected for thinking future! the Spartans are the playoffs in 1984. “We’re excited; the top two teams in the division go on to the conference champion­ ship and we want to be there,” Knoppers said. —Mario Impemba [Above left ) CHERYL HISTED, an All-Confer­ ence selection, stretches for a return.

Young, But Not Necessarily Green Inexperience, slow start hamper Spartan kickers, but real talent leads to respectable finish ust one look at the Michigan State varsity soccer roster would reveal an obvious fact: the Spartan soccer pro­ gram is definitely banking on the fu­ ture. Nowhere is this more evident than in the 1983 Varsity squad. The 9—7—1 Spartans finished third in the East Division of the Big Ten, going primarily with a young team consisting of two seniors, two juniors, and the remainder sophomores and freshmen. The Spartans struggled in the early part of the season, losing three of their first four contests. The main reason for the slow start was the fact that it took time for the freshmen to get acclimated to the college game. Was Michigan State counting too heavily on its young players to produced early? Head Coach Joe Baum seemed to think so. “We felt that a lot of these freshmen players could come in and just contribute immediately,” Baum said. “That was a lofty goal we were not able to meet.” MSU did manage solid defensive playing, and things turned around in game five when the Spartans defeated Michigan. Down by a goal at the half, MSU came up with three second-half goals to give them a come-from-behind win and set them back on the winning track for the rest of the season. Of the seven losses MSU suffered, three were by the margin of one goal, and, with a few breakslthings could have gone the other way. Only once were the Spartans victims of a blow out, a 6—0 loss at the hands of a strong Cleveland State team, which, at the time, was ranked third in the Mideast Area. However, with a nucleus of good young players returning next season, Baum is un­ derstandably optimistic and excited. “I don’t think next year anybody will blow us away 6—0 again,” he said. Baum was also encouraged with the fine effort the Spartans displayed in a 4—2 loss to Indiana and a 2—0 defeat to Bowling Green State, the numbers one and four ranked teams in the Mideast Area. MSU will most certainly miss the solid play of two graduating seniors, Steve Swanson and Steve Erdman. The Spartans will be hard pressed to re­ place the leadership qualities found in both. “We felt that a lot of these freshmen players could come in and just contribute immediately.” —Joe Baum SOCCER MSLRgrares àBpeaaiwIfcV-.

It's game five of the 1983 season, and the Spartans, losers of their last three games, own a dismal 1 —3 record, with the University of Michigan in town. The Wolverines are 1 —0 at the half and it appears the Spartans are headed for a 1 —4 start and a season not worth remembering.

It all comes down to right now." What followed was a showcase of the importance of two seniors to the Michi­ gan State club. From the opening tap, senior co-cap- tain Steve Swanson beat three oppo­ nents with the dribble, fired a perfect pass to forward Steve Erdman who beat the goalie with a score. Baum said of the play, "That was the key to the whole season right there. Had we lost that game to Michigan, the whole season could have been a total disaster." The Spartans went an to tally two more second half goals for a 3—1 victory, and proceeded to win seven of their next 12 games, including a tie. As the only two seniors on the playing squad, both Erdman and Swanson possessed qualities which extended beyond the playing field. "These are two of the finest leaders," Baum said. "I've had players who were more productive in that they score more points, but these two were solid all- around players, both offensively and defensively.” Swanson finished the 1983 campaign as the top paint scorer on the club. The West Bloomfield native scored eight goals and added nine assists for a total of 17 points. Swanson's assist mark was the fifth best ever in a season and he closed out his career at MSU with 14 goals and 19 assists for total of 33 Erdman's final career statistics included 19 goals and 13 assists, good for 32 total points. Said Baum, "Players like this are a joy to coach. It's almost like having a couple of assistant coaches on the field.” —Mario impemba Soccer 79 FIELD HOCKEY MSHscore appears last Villanova American □avis & Elkins TOLEDO Iowa ’ Ohio State [2 OT] EASTERN MICHIGAN NOTRE DAME Western Michigan Michigan Miami-Ohio BajlÉState Iowa Purdue (1 OT3 Central Michigan NORTHWESTERN OHIO STATE (jOT) Purdue Northwestern CENTRAL MICHIGAN MICHIGAN BIG TEN RECORD: 2-8 I OVERALL RECORD: 8-12-1 3-1 5-0 1-2 7-1 2-1 0-2 0-3 0-1 0-2 1-0 3-0 3-0 2-1 1-2 2-1 4-3 2-0 5-1 0-2 1-2 “We ¡beat Michigan twice, certainly the highlight of any MSU season.” — Kimball ■■1 COACH RICH KIM­ BALL congratulates one of his players after one of the vic­ tories over Michigan.

The Spartan stickers wound up with just a 2—8 record in the conference but both wins came against Michigan and three of the losses came in overtime — giving Kimball a positive outlook on the future. “We were a very young team, starting four freshmen,” Kimball said. “We were also very streaky. We started well, then had a down period, but we finished on a strong note with two victories.” The Spartans fifth-place finish tout of six teams] in the Big Ten is not exactly where Kimball would like to see MSU finish, is bet­ ter than his initial season. “We did beat Michigan twice which is cer­ tainly the highlight of any MSU season,” Kimball said. “We're on the verge of getting to move up past two more teams, Ohio State and Purdue. Next season we hope to take giant steps with our seven or eight freshmen and sophomores, we will build back to where we should be.” Four seniors, including the two top scor­ ers, Ann Marie Whalen and Jeanne Law­ rence, contributed greatly to the success of the field hockey squad in 1983 and will surely be tough to replace. Lawrence, the Spartan’s leading scorer, was selected to the Big Ten’s All Confer­ ence first team and Whalen, their second leading scorer, was picked as an All-Big Ten second teamer. Senior defensive stalwarts Renee Taver­ nier and Kim Wolbrink anchored a defense that recorded six shutouts in '83, including four in a row in the middle of the season, and will be sorely missed. But, Kimball is optimistic about continu­ ing the climb up the ladder of the Big Ten, and, after starting four freshmen in 1983, each added year of experience will help. Highlighting the returning stickers will be junior halfback Chris Ann Johnson, a second team All-Big Ten selection, and fourth lead­ ing scorer. But, Kimball also returns his two goal keepers in Barb Naylor and Kathy Mur­ phy who allowed just a little more than two goals a game on average. With that strong nucleus and Kimball's knack for recruiting, the rest of the Big Ten should be looking over their shoulders for the Spartans in the years to come. —Eric Schurer JEANNE LAWRENCE, a senior link from Cin- naminson, N.J., waits to receive a pass.

Field Hockey 81 QUARTERBACK BROWN concentrates on c<]||. ing a double reverse against the lovua Hawkey e ¡. | Let George Try Again Perles brings new excitement and commitment to MSU, but fails miserably at winning osh, did Michigan State University have college football's Grand Pooh Bahs fooled for a couple weeks during the 1983 campaign. Here was Michigan State, a team with a new head coach, a new backfield, a new offensive line and an inexperienced quarterback, ranked 19th in the country en­ tering its first Big Ten confrontation. When George Perles replaced Frank “Muddy” Waters as head coach on De­ cember 3, 1982, MSU was a popular can­ didate for Big Ten doormat honors in '83. Lowly Northwestern was no longer the Rod­ ney Dangerfield of the Conference, via the very green, Green Machine. Despite his stately coaching ancestry with the distinguished Pittsburgh Steelers, Perles was no Houdini. More than a magic wand would have been needed to cultivate the '83 Spartans into bonafide contenders. MSU returned just four offensive star­ ters, led by split-end Daryl Turner who caught a mere eight passes for 139 yards in ’82. The defensive, too, returned four starters, with All-American linebacker Carl Banks heading that unit. The quarterback, Dave Yarema, was a part-time supplanter to the fickle John Leister in ’82. “I didn’t come here to be competitive,« said Perles at one of many pre-season media get-togethers. “I came here to win a championship»« for And two September Saturdays, Michigan State did a yeoman’s job of build­ ing a sound foundation for that long-awaited championship season. MSU opened its season with a convincing 23-17 win over the ho-hum University of Colorado before 56,835 agog patrons at Spartan Stadium. True, the victory came against a so-so team from the so-so Big Eight Conference that sported a so-so 2-8- 1 record in '82 under second year head coach Bill McCartney. Nonetheless, MSU’s 82 Football win over Colorado marked the first time a head coach at Michigan State won his opener since the colorful Charlie Bachman led the Spartans to a 14—0 win over Grin- nell in 1933. The following Saturday, MSU registered one of the biggest college football upsets of ’83. The Spartans upended powerhouse Notre Dame 28—23 in South Bend, the first time MSU beat Notre Dame on Irish turf since 1975. College football fans were awe-struck. Bookies were heart-broken. And George Perles attained instant respect in East Lan- “The worst thing that could’ve happened to us was for us to win too early. We weren’t ready yet. ’—George Perles sing. Perles, however, didn’t get caught up in the hoopla. In fact, Perles refused to talk to the media corps after the win, invoking the famous “24-hour rule.” “The attitude was scary,” Perles would explain later. “I didn’t want to elaborate on it tthe win over Notre Dame). I felt there was a possiblity that we could get over-con­ fident during that period, and I didn’t want that to happen. MSU’s confidence, and season, would be crushed seven days later. Here’s what happened: With less than three minutes to play in the first quarter, MSU leading Illinois 3-0, Yarema was gang-tackled. The bruised and battered Yarema slowly marched to the sidelines, grasping his right shoulder. He would not return. The diagnosis was a sepa­ rated shoulder that would require surgery, sidelining Yarema for the rest of the sea­ son. To worsen matters, back-up quarterback Rich Kolb suffered a broken right hand in the second quarter, keeping him on ice much of the season. lllini The Spartans’ 20- 1G loss to the Fight­ losing ing streak. MSU would finish a dismal 4-6-1 overall and 2-6-1 in the Big Ten. instigated a four-game Perles realized that Yarema’s injury dark­ ened MSU’s opportunity for a respectable finish. “I think everyone understood that losing the players we did certainly hurt our chances of winning,” said Perles. “But I don’t want to use that as a crutch. I don’t want to use it as an excuse. I would like to think that Illinois had a great game and beat us.” Yarema and Kolb weren’t the only Michi­ gan State players that required medical at­ tention following the brawl with Illinois. Guard John Wojciechowski tore the liga­ ments in his right knee, sidelining him for the rest of the season. Carl Banks twisted his right knee, an injury that would nag him all season. Some Spartans complained that Illinois took some dirty shots. Perles thought otherwise. “We got beat fair and square,” Perles said. “They played within the rules and knocked our fanny off.” Bodies weren’t all that took a bruising as a result of the Illinois game. The morale sank faster than a lead balloon.

He said the media mis­ quoted him. Perles called a team meeting the day after Butler’s remarks were published. “I had to hit it head on,” said Perles of the problem. “I had the people who were involved and the people who elaborated on it in my office. I let the people give their sides of the story. I talked to the team about it. I told the team we had to make a positive situation of it. Perles has a knack for reviving hopeless circumstances. Daryl Turner, for instance. Turner tallied just eight pass receptions in ’82, the worst for a starting receiver in the Big Ten that year. Turner wallowed in a con­ stant state of depression. He seemed to have lost his touch. □aryl Turner caught 28 passes for 549 yards in ’83. He was second on the team in scoring with five touchdowns. “It was be­ cause of our staff,” boasted Perles. “It [the coaching staff] saved the guy. It gave him a chance in life when he had almost thrown it all away.” Perles is an optimist. He believes MSU is building a strong foundation. He said MSU was a good team in ’83. He also thinks a winning season last year would have been premature. “I’m not so sure that it would have been what we needed, “Perles explained. “We can’t use all our guns in one year. I’m not ready yet. If we did [have a winning season] it still wouldn’t have been us. When we put this thing together it’s going to be like steel. It’s going to be solid. It’s going to have a foundation. And it's going to have a growing part to it.” Even after MSU fell to Wisconsin 34—0 in the season finale, it was tough for one not to marvel “What if Dave Yarema never separated his shoulder? “What if John Wojciechowski didn’t get injured?” “What if Carl Banks would have been 1 □□ percent?” “Gripe,” said Perles.

We weren’t ready yet.” —Tom Sussi ALLEN MOORE and Anthony Bell carry a jubi­ lant Coach Perles off the field after a spectacu­ lar Homecoming victory.

George Julius Perles wanted to work for Daugherty upon graduation. “When I graduated (he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in 1960) my goal in life was to be an assistant for Duffy Daugherty at Michigan State, ” said Perles whose playing career at MSU was cut short by a knee injury. Perles served as an assistant under Daugherty in 1967 following a two-year stint at the Unviersity of Dayton. Perles left MSU in 1972 for a position with the Pittsburgh Steelers where he stayed for the next 10 years. In 1982, Perles was name head coach of the Philadelphia Stars of the United States Football League. He broke his contract with the Stars six months later to replace the fired Frank “Muddy” Waters as head coach at Michigan State. “This has to be the finest coaching position in the country Perles said at his inauguration. Perles was introduced to coaching in 1961 as a student at Michigan State as a student assistant under Daugherty. Perles worked with the freshman unit while pursuing his Master’s degree. Perles accepted an assistant coardi- ingjob at St. Rita High School in Chicago upon earning his M.A. The next year, he landed a head coaching job at De­ troit’s St. Ambrose, winning two city titles in three years.

RALF H | beautiful 40 A f t e r t h e I l l i n o i s g a m e Marema's Season That Wasn't MSU football fans never imagined that one play could determine the outcome of the 1983 season; but that’s exactly what happened In only a matter of seconds, “I Left Toss 39 Naked Bootleg” changed the complexion of the entire season from hopeful to disastrous. When the play was run in the first quarter of the Illinois game, its cost to the Spartans was substantial, as it left MSU quarterback Dave Yarema with a season-ending shoulder separation. Spartan fans probably didn t realize it at the time, but the play not only marked the end of Yarema's season, it also signified the season's end for the team "Although we never ran the play in a game situation before I got hurt, we did run it a lot in practice," Yarema said "When we ran the play against Illinois I saw an opening and decided to run. I hurt my shoulder by landing the wrong way. the injury was a fluke." Fluke or not. the injury left MSU devastated. Before Yarema's injury MSU was unbeaten in two games—includ­ ing an upset of Notre Dame— and ranked 19th in the nation Without Yarema's services however, the Spartans fell apart and the dreams of an excellent season crumbled as the team won only two more games. "Many times I wonder if SOPHOMORE QUARTERBACK Clark Brown calls the signals against the Gophers. Brown did an admirable job in filling the large hole left when Steve Yarema was in­ I jured. A NATIVE OF PORTAGE, Clark Brown attempts to get the hand- off to his fullback before the Min­ nesota Gophers come charging through the line. things would have been differ­ ent if I had played," Yarema said. "But you never know, if I had played we may have lost more games than we did. Even though Yarema spent the remainder of the 1983 season waiting for his shoulder to heal, he remained a part of the Spartan football program, but only as a supporter. When Yarema wasn't sup­ porting the football team, he worked on rehabilitating his shoulder. Instructed by doctors not to throw a football, Yarema originally gained some of the motion back in his shoulder by playing basketball. Later Yarema’s rehabilitation pro­ gram also included throwing a football. "I've been throwing a football for almost two months now and I've experienced no pain," Yarema said. "The doctors told me that my shoulder is back to 100 percent." Another individual who believes Yarema is healthy again is MSU football coach George Perles Perles said Yarema's performance in spring drills was very encourag- "I can tell Dave is back to 100 percent just by watching him throw during drills,” Perles said. Tm looking for him to take right up where he left off last season. As of right now, he is our starting quarterback.” With the injury being some­ thing that is behind him, Yarema anxiously awaits next season and insists he won't be intimidated by the thought of "I won't be gun shy," Yarema said. "I won't think about it, but I will be smart about it. “If the opening is there when we run the play again, I'll run.” According to Yarema, one nice thing the injury did provide is a potential excuse if he doesn't play well. “I figure if I have a bad game in the future, I can always say my shoulder was aching a little bit." Yarema said laughingly. MSU football fans will hope excuses won't be necessary for the 1984 season But whatever the case, the first time Yarema calls "I Left Toss 39 Naked Bootleg," fans will probably hope that Yarema opts to pass instead of run. —Jerry Serafim Football 87 WOMEN’S BASKETBALL TEAM: Front row: Head Coach Karen Langeland, Kelly Belanger, Mary Tucker, Brenda Jezowksi, Julie Polakowski, Assistant Coach Tina Krah.

GUARD SUE PEARSALL drives in a lay-up 88 Women’s Basketball Talented Youngsters Women cagers turn season around despite injuries and bad luck 1 he password for the MSU women’s basketball team in 1983—84 was youth. But by the end of the season the word was “talented youth.” The Spartans, who finished the sea­ son 18-10, 10-8 and tied for fifth in the Big Ten, started three sophomores and two freshmen and won’t lose a single player on the roster for next year’s team. The brightest seems yet to come for eight- year head coach Karen Langeland. Lange- land’s charges showed a tremendous im­ provement in conference play after opening at 1 -5 to win eight of their last 10 Big Ten games and establish themselves as a threat for next season. But in the beginning of the season, not even the optimistic Langeland would have predicted such a fine finish. A rash of bad luck and injuries continued in a string that seemed to run all the way back to the pre­ vious season, and took a bite out of the Spar­ tans’ punch before they even got started. Senior point guard Brenda Jezowski, who had run the Spartan offense for the better part of three seasons, was hampered in the early season with a back problem that was to end her season after sparse action in five games. Langeland and the Spartans suffered anS other setback when highly-publicized fresh­ man Sue Tucker from nearby Okemos went down before the first game with a badly sprained left ankle. But with converted forward Kim Archer running the MSU attack, freshman Kris Emerson and sophomore center Mary Kay McNall clearing the boards and shooting guards Julie Polakowski and Kelly Belanger lighting up the nets, MSU developed into an effective, cohesive and dangerous team by the middle of the conference season. Once the ball started rolling the Spar­ tans’ way, the good news wouldn’t quit. Jezowski was granted red-shirt status and will return for one more season, allowing Archer to return to her front-court duties and Tucker returned a little more than half­ way into the season to show glimpses of her prep glitter.

Belanger, making up for the tempo­ rary loss of Polakowski, gunned in 20 points from the outside in the win. The victory was witnessed by one of the larger crowds of the season and for­ mer Olympic and UCLA star Ann Myer, who was on hand promoting the 1984 Olympics. Summer McNall, the Spar­ 6-foot-3 tans' sophomore center, led the team in scor­ ing with better than a 14 points per game average. But McNall was far from the only star in the show. Three other start­ ers finished the sea­ fig­ in double son ures—Emerson, Be­ langer and Polakow­ ski—and Archer led the team in assists to complete the balanced attack. sophomore JULIE POLAKOWSKI, a from Maple City, dribbles past a Purdue player. Langeland also discovered the depth of her bench in 1983—84 as any one of five players was called on to do the job during the season. Becky Glass, Ronna Greenberg, Tricia Hyland, Sue Pearsall and Sue Tucker each wore the heroine’s garb for the Spar­ tans this season and Langeland wouldn't hesitate to lean on any of them in the crunch. With the freshman mistakes hopefully out of the way in the early season and Jezowski again running the show, Langeland is looking for even bigger things out of her squad: talented experience. ^E-Eric Schurer Women’s Basketball 89 Injuries Cagers' Hamper Season With Willis and Vincent out because of ankle injuries, Spartans just couldn't seem to put it together t was November 1983, and the hot­ test issue in Michigan State sports since George Perles was the men’s basketball team. The cagers were fresh from a championship in the Spartan Cutlass Class­ ic, and looking forward to tackling the al­ ways-tough Big Ten Conference. The Spa - tans, fans as well as players, were oozir g with enthusiasm and high expectations. Then the roof caved in on Michigan Stat g in a game at St. Peter's, when the Spartans dropped a 73—66 decision. The loss fore­ shadowed things to come as MSU ap- proached its Big Ten schedule. It started with injuries. Center Kevin Willis injured his ankle during the Cutlass Classic, which hampered him all season. Guard Sam Vincent suffered a sprained ankle in MSU’s Big Ten opener against Iowa, sidelining him for half the Big Ten season. Not having Willis in the line-up against St. Peter’s hurt MSU’s chance for pulling out I a victory according to MSU coach Jud Heathcote. I “We knew we’d have to play tough to beat them,” said Heathcote. “We didn’t play well at all in that game. Willis was injured, (Richard) Mudd had back spasms and Ken Johnson wasn’t eligible. We were out-re­ bounded.” “The game was strained elation,” remem­ bered Heathcote. “When Sam went down, we knew we'd have to make adjustments.” MSU, minus Vincent, dropped its next seven games before upsetting the Univer­ sity of Michigan 72—67 at Jenison. The win, however, wash’t enough for MSU to “It was devastating not being picked.

The following week, MSU dropped la pair to Minnesota and Wisconsin. MSU Iwould also lose to Indiana, Ohio State, Illinois and Purdue before the Spartans placed one in the win column. The key to the slump: injuries. “It really hurt not having the penetration of Sam (Vincent),” said Heathcote. "Yet, the inability of Kevin (Willis) to play over his injury was as much a factor as losing Sam. ” “It was very frustrating watching from the bench,” Vincent added. “I knew I could help the team by doing some things that weren't getting done. Scott (Skiles) still played well, but the absence of penetration hurt our inside game.” The Spartans stood 9-11 overall follow­ ing their win over Michigan. With only half the Big Ten season to be played, it was unlikely that MSU would earn a bid to the NCAA tourney.

We though that if we beat Iowa, we would get the bid. We were the next logical choice.” “It was devastating not being picked,” added Vincent. “After the Iowa game, we thought we’d be in the NIT.” The '83—84 Spartans were disappoint­ ing, at best.

And it turned out to be just that. Even though many of the big names that had dominated the sports pages for years were gone, the Spartan hockey program endured in 1983—1984. This new blend of youth and enthusiasm, thanks largely to eight freshmen, who took on key roles immediately and never blinked an eyelash, rose to bigger and better things. The MSU icers made the final four for only the fourth time in school history, and for the first time since LBJ was in the White House. The season opened with a bang, as MSU rolled to six straight wins over Northeast­ ern, Western Michigan and Illinois-Chicago. rolled But then Bowling Green, winners of two consecutive CCHA regular-season cham­ into Munn Arena and pionships. taught these green kids a lesson. The Fal­ cons swept the Spartans right off their home ice with 7—4 and 5—3 decisions, and showed MSU just how far it had to go in the process. Yet head coach Ron Mason refused to panic. “They’re a veteran team and they’re very good, but they probably won’t improve any by the end of the season,” Mason cau­ tioned. “But we’re still young . . . and we’re going to get better.” The team continued to develop in the en­ suing weeks, and won its second consecu­ tive Great Lakes Invitational Tournament championship in late December, beating Michigan Tech in the championship game before a Joe Louis Arena crowd of 21,402, the largest group ever to watch a hockey game on the continent of North America. When the team returned to campus after the winter break in January, the freshmen suddenly realized what it took to play the game on a collegiate level. With renewed confidence, the youngsters began to relax and let their natural skills take over. The Spartans won seven of eight after the party in Joe Louis Arena, including a 12—1 stomping of Michigan, and a 5—3 decision at Ohio State, in a game Mason called “the turning point of the season.” MSU went 5—3 through a difficult schedule to close out the CCHA regular season in third place. The playoffs, how­ ever, would prove to be another story. recently swept State Michigan Tech cam to town for the first round at Munn Arena, and although the Huskies had in Houghton, this time around they were no match for the Spartans.

Spartans are CCHA Champions continued ■ The success at Joe Louis sent MSU back to its “other” home ice, as the Spartans hosted an NCAA tournament game for the first time in school history. Boston College came to town for a two-game series that would earn the winner a trip to Lake Placid, N.Y. and the final four. MSU was ready, taking care of the Eagles 6—2 and 7—6. In Lake Placid, the Spartan “Miracle on Ice” season finally came to an end, as even­ tual national champion Bowling Green stopped MSU 2—1 in the semi-finals. BG went on to win it all and the Spartans dropped their final game of the 1983—84 campaign to North Dakota 6—5 in overtime. Yet even with the two losses in Lake Placid, the season was far more successful than even Mason could have anticipated at the outset. MSU set a school record for victories with 34, and home victories with 20. The Spartans scored more goals, as­ sists and points than ever before, and also had the largest goals-scored vs. goals-al- lowed differential (plus 11 2) of all time. No, they didn’t win the national champion­ ship, but the 1983—84 season still has to go down as down as one of the most suc­ cessful in Spartan history. It was quite a year, all in all, and one that probably won’t be forgotten for a long, long time. —Mike Prisuta e Senior Cornerstones Five minutes into the overtime period of the consolation game Saturday afternoon in Lake Placid, N.Y., Newell Brown, Jeff Eisley and David Taylor finally gave up the fight. Only when the red light went on behind MSU goalie Norm Foster to signal North Dakota's game-winner, did Brown, the fifth-leading scorer in Spartan history, Eisley, the second-leading scoring defenseman in MSU history, and Taylor, the Spartans' all-time leader in appear­ ances, stop scratching in hope of a national championship. Moments after the deciding goal Brown stood alone in front of the empty MSU net, his celebrated college career ended on a sour fourth-place note. But outside the locker room. Brown had all the highs and lows straightened out in his mind. “When I first came here our record was 12-24, the next two years we got to the playoffs and then this year to the final four, it’s a credit to the program that we've come this far and to be a part of it," said the Cornwall, Ont. native. It has been a long way for the trio of Spartan seniors, and for four years Newell Brown, Jeff Eisley and David Taylor have been more than just a part of head coach Ron Mason's reconstruc­ tion of a failing Spartan hockey program. They have been cornerstones in the 96 Hockey building of one of the strongest pro­ grams in the country. With a goal and an assist in the 6—5, overtime loss to North Dakota, Brown notched the 201 st and 202nd points of his career, pulling him ahead of Russ Welch (1977— 1980) and Mark Hamway (1980—19833 into fifth place on the Spartans' career scoring list. Eisley, a product of Redford, Mich., became only the second defenseman in MSU history to score more than 50 points in a season. His goal and two assists in the consolation game lifted his season total to 54 points and 103 for his career. Taylor, despite scoring just 20 points in his final season, was a workman at the blueline for four years for MSU and played in more games (1653 than any player in Spartan hockey history, a tribute to his durability and importance to the MSU program. "They came here when there were no cheers and championships were just a dream," Mason said. But it was Brown's career that most traces the rise of the MSU program. In his freshman campaign Brown scored just 30 points for the cellar- dweller Spartans in the WCHA. The next season, after the switch to the CCHA, Brown emerged as the new leader and paced the CCHA playoff champion Spartans with 73 points and signaled the rise of MSU's hockey fortunes. As just a sophomore Brown was expected to set the nets on fire in his last two seasons. But rather than strive for purely individual goals, Brown became a team player, leading the club like the captain ne is The Spartans rather than relying on a couple of big scorers, became a team of many scorers as a formula for their success, and Brown became one of the many. After scoring his last goal at Munn Arena in the NCAA quarterfinals against Boston College, Brown whirled his arm up in typical fashion and pulled down the house like an engineer tooting the horn of a locomotive for the last time in front of the adoring sellout crowd. "It certainly Was a great feeling, I can’t deny that,” Brown said after reaching the 200-point plateau. “But everybody contributes. It is a greater feeling going to Lake Placid than getting 200 points. “It was the best decision I ever made coming to Michigan State," Brown said. “I was able to develop as a player and get an education as well. I would have like to have gone out a winner but MSU is going to have great teams for years to come.

But then again, there are still a few rare occasions left in sports when winning isn't everything. This was one of them. The Spartan icers did indeed fail in that national championship quest—just as they had done in each of the previous two seasons. But this time around, MSU went out in a blaze of glory, rather ; than the all too familiar fits of frustration I that had accompanied NCAA quarter­ final losses to Now Hampshire in 1982 and Harvard in 1983. The final four, of course, is the main objective. If you don't get to the final four, you don't have a chance to win it . ail. Surprisingly, the Spartans had that chance this year, their first since the 1967 season, And even though they came out of the Olympic Arena fourth in the four-team field, the program took another giant step forward. Simply by being there. “When I left Harvard last year, I was : completely sick, '' head coach Ron Mason ; admitted after returning from the final-four tournament. “I knew Ronnie Scott was gone and I knew that we were losing Gary Haight, Ken Leiter, Mark Hamway. . . and I figured our chance at making the final four was stalled for a couple of years.” Players like Scott, Haight, Hamway and Leiter were the cornerstones that helped Mason transform a losing, last-place program into perennial national-championship contenders almost overnight. But the graduations of Leiter and Hamway, Haight's sabbat­ ical to the U.S. Olympic Team and Scott's leap into the pro ranks all cast a bleak outlook for another shot at national glory in 1983~~84. But when the ice chips had settled and the four best teams in the nation were battling it out for the right to scream "We're No. 1” in late March, MSU was right in the thick of it. “If Boston College would have knocked us off (in the NCAA quarter-finals), then I think we’d have to look in the mirror and reevaluate things. But we got the home ice (both of the previous two quarter­ final losses had been on the road) and we made it to Lake Placid. We're progressing in the right direction.” No, a 2-1 semi-final loss to eventual national champion Bowling Green was not enough to ruin the season for MSU. Sure, the Spartans would have like to bring home a championship. But at the same time they served notice that they are very capable of winning it all, and that : they’ll be heard from again. "Michigan State hadn't been to the final four in 17 years,” Mason said. “Now I want to see if we can’t be there on a regular basis like the Wisconsins, Minnesotas and North Dakotas. We should be in the same class as those programs and now I think we are. “If this season showed us anything, it's that we have a contender. As long as we're in there (in the final four) knocking on the door, we know we can go through and win it all on any given year." The Spartans had that chance this year. . . and that’s all any program can really ask for. —Mike Prisuta NOTEBOOK • LAKE PLACID—Guess what the most sought-after souvenirs were at the NCAA Hockey Championships?

What a snowjob! —Tom Sussi FRANCES MARINO POSES confidently on the 4-foot high balance beam, anticipating her next move, a back flip. Freshmen Come In With a Bang Sophomores and seniors weren't slouching either, as women finish 8-3 outh and talent vyere the keys to suc­ cess for the 1984 women’s gymnas­ tics team. With the addition of several of the nation’s top freshmen recruits, and the return of last year’s top per­ formers, MSU had high hopes and confi­ dence of a winning season from the begin­ ning. Senior Linda Guhl, who finished 10th all- around at the Big Tern Championship, and senior Kelly Enright, who was a vaulting finalist at the Big Tens, lent guidance and experience to the youthful squad. Sopho­ mores Frances Marino and Kim McCabe also returned to contribute more than their 7 share of support. Young, but far from rookie-status, the six freshmen gymnasts who joined the Spartans brought with them a wealth of experience. Kelly Doyle, a record-setting athlete from Indianapolis, was the Indiana state champ in all events in 1 981. In 1982, she won the Indiana AAU title in floor exercise, balance beam, vault and all-around. She also qual­ ified for the AAU Nationals that same year. Doyle’s outstanding accomplishments this year include setting a school record for her floor exercise performance with an as­ tounding 9.4. She also tied a school record for all-around that was set by her room­ mate, Linda Schumader, only one month earlier. A cum laude student from New Jersey, Schumader’s greatest strength proved to be on floor exercise,lobviously. She, how­ ever, performed excellently in all other events. Prior to coming to MSU,1 she trained as an elite gymnast at the Gymnas­ tics Academy of Cherry Hill. Kellie Thorburn of Calgary, Canada, brought with her the international experi­ ence of the Canadian National team. A two- time member, she placed seventh in all- around in Japan in the winter of 1982. This year, Thorburn scored consistently high in all events and added much strength to the overall score. A class-A floor exercise champ and strong all-around performer, Wendy Specht came to the Spartan squad from Prospect Heights, III. In the 1984 season, Specht’s best floor exercise performance was an 8.85 against Pittsburgh. Judi Brown, a freshman from Keyport, New Jersey, finished in the top 1 2 in all- around in the 1980 Junior Olympics. This year, her best performances were on the uneven bars and the balance beam. An outstanding student from Kenowa High in Grand Rapids, Joann Klein placed third in the state high school meet in 1981. This year, however, she was injured early in the season and was unable to compete. All of these women are very important components for the future success of women’s gymnastics at MSU, although, in past years, the sophomores and seniors of the team have been vital links of the group. Injured early in the season, Kim McCabe returned with amazing success. She was one of the year’s most consistent scorers in all-around. Another of the year’s top per­ formers was Frances Marino, who received the year’s highest score on the uneven bars with a 9.30. She led the team in scoring in all but one event. She was intimidated at the beginning of the year by Doyle’s excellence, but came back with her usual flare and high scores. Although the freshmen came in with a bang this year, senior Kelly Enright and Linda Guhl gave, again, one more year of top performances. Plus, both women were counted on for leadership of the team, a job in itself. Head Coach Michael Kasavana and Assis­ tant Coach Jill Hough were pleased with this year’s record of eight wins and three losses. “We won the Wolverine Invitational and finished third in the Big Ten® Kasavana said. “And the future looks even better. We’re a young team and have hopes of re­ cruiting two more highly sought after high school seniors.” —Elizabeth Brown ON THE UNEVEN BARS, Linda Schmauder swings out of a handstand.

"There's no competition between us at all," Doyle said, "only support and encouragement that each of us does out best." —Elizabeth Brown Wj Li jrj SPARTAN GYMNASTS RELAX before a meet on the third floor of Jenison Field House.

Several individuals claimed high conference status in their events, helping to make up for the team’s lack of depth. The G-men fin­ ished the regular season with an 8—6 mark, their first winning season in three years. Opening with the Spartan Invitational, the Spartans emerged with the highest team average for the pommel-horse event in MSU gymnastics history—a 9.0B-with senior co-captain Bruce Trevor placing first. Tre- vor, a pommel-horse specialist, was consid­ ered one of the best in the Big Ten, and averaged almost a 9.6 for the season.

The three freshmen recruits, Allan Pow­ ers, Phil Gray, and Malec, made early con­ tributions to the team’s success and ex­ ceeded Szypula’s expectations. “They are possibly the best freshmen all-arounders I’ve ever had,” said Szypula.

The Kent State/Towson State meet saw the Spartans score theirl highest team score in almost a decade—267. Spellis, competing in all six events, grabbed first places in all-around, floor-exercise, and high bar. He and TrevorJMalec, and Neurock all scored above 9.0 in pommel-horse and reached a team season climax of 45.65 in the event. After the Kent/Towson meet, the Spar­ tan’s stumbled against Hlinois-Chicago. “The bottom dropped out on us on the horse,” explained Szypula. “They had a good day and we came off flat.” Until that meet, the G-men bore a respectable 3—3 record, the losses being to three of the Big Ten’s best: lllinoisiMinnesota, and Ohio State. “I knew that sooner or later it would catch up to us,” Szypula said. In their final regular season home meet, the Spartans made a comeback against Michigan, after having been sick with the flu. The vault, which had been a problem event all season, turned out to make the the event difference. Bill Jenkins won (9.251 while teammates Marty Bearny and Jay Oestreich both scored above 9.0. Tre­ vor captured a career high of 9.8 in the pommel-horse.,Powers, who had been sick and out of practice, placed first in the still rings with a 9.4. For the season's grand finale, the Spar­ tans hosted the NCAA Big Ten Champion­ ships at Jenison Field House. MSU placed sixth of seven teams, squeezed out by a point for fifth place by Michigan. Minnesota won, capturing its seventh conference title in nine years. Trevor, Spellis, and Powers placed in the top six, with Trevor tying for second in pom- mePhorse, Powers placing fourth in still rings, and Spellis getting sixth in floor-exer­ cise. Szypula said the downfall occurred on the high bar, although the team was “super” on the other five events. Oestreich was the only other Spartan to qualify for the finals with his ninth place finish in vault. Due to the potential displayed by the younger G-men thsi year, Szypula said he can’t wait not for next year, but for the next three years.

Indeed, they had almost enough to fill the McCafferry Pools in the IM West where they practice. Winning and losing seem to come in cycles for the men swimmers, and the 1984 season marked a low point in their cycle. With three wins, eight losses and ninth place in the Big Ten Championships, it was not an up season for the team. But this did not discourage either the ded­ icated Spartans or the fans because many other characteristics made them unique. “This year we had an international team,” coach Dick Fetters said. C.J. Winkel, a junior, is from Den Haag, Netherlands. Win­ kel took the Most Valuable Player award and has a good chance of swimming for the Netherlands’ Olympic team this summer. Another team member, Juan Tavares, is a junior from Santo Domingo in the Domini­ can Republic and James Mathieson is a Canadian swimmer from Toronto. The Athletic Academic report showed that the members carry an average of no less than 3.0. All-American diver Mike Brown took the Senior Scholarship award with a GPA of 3.9 for his entire academic career. Another important quality for any athletic team is a sense of unity. Fetters said that his team had no problem with this one. In an effort to spend more time with one another, they play softball on an intramural team. Fetters predicts that next year the team will be stronger and faster. Because more than half of the 1 B-man team are either freshmen or sophomores, many of them have not had the time or experience to be fast swimmers. The good point about the young tankers is that they have a couple of years to make up for what they did not ac­ complish this year. He said that good seasons run in cycles for the swimming team. It was unfortunate that this season was a low point, but next year they will strive to do better. —Victoria Thomas MIKE WAGNER EXECUTES a stunning back dive. I Men’s Swimming/Diving 107 Never a Losing Season Wrestlers are second in Big Ten cor second consecutive season uring a year which featured other MSU sports failing to meet presea­ son expectations, the 1984 MSU Wrestling team could have indeed fol­ lowed suit, »stead the team, which was ranked in the top 1 □ of several pre­ season national polls, enjoyed one of its finest seasons in recent history by compil­ ing a 10-5 overall, 7-2 Big Ten record. “Before the season, I knew we could give anyone trouble just from the talent we had,” said MSU Wrestling Coach Grady Peninger. “If we didn’t do well this yeatÉ we would have had to have experienced some bad luck.” ' Coached for 22 years by Peninger, the team not only was the Big Ten runner-up for the second consecutive year, but also finished ninth the NCAA Champion­ ships—the best showing in 10 seasons. in Although the strong finish in the NCAA Tournament! was outstanding, Peninger said the highlight of the season was the team’s performance in the Big Ten Tourna­ ment. “Upsetting Minnesota and Wisconsin to finish second in the Big Ten was the sea­ son’s highlight,” Peninger said. “That’s the second consecutive year these kids have done it.” Enabling the Spartans to finish second in the Big Ten, Championships were standout performances by four MSU seniors. James Mason and Eli Blazeff were both||unner-up in their respective weight classes, Greg Sargis placed third and Michael Potts was crowned heavyweight cham­ pion. In the process of winning the Big Ten championship, Potts recorded the quickest fall in the tournament’s his­ tory as he pinned his opponent in 43 sec­ onds of the first round. Peninger, who nas never coached MSU to a losing season, attributes the sue- Brad Poulos cess of this year’s team to the example set forth by these four senior wrestlers. “Potts, Sargis, Blazeff and Mason were alleaders and were all very hard workers,” he said. “They all sacrificed their time and provided some key leadership.” Following the 1 984 season, the Spartan wrestling team will lose the talents of six In addition to the four team members. graduating seniors, juniors Wayne Jackson and Ernie Blazeff will not compete for MSU next season. To see just how valuable three of the de­ parting wrestlers were to the MSU wrestl­ ing program, one only needs to look at the MSU wrestling record book: • By being named an All-American three of his four years at MSU, Potts has enjoyed the most success of any MSU wrestler dur­ ing his career. In addition to his record set­ ting performance in the 1 984 Big Ten Tour­ nament, Potts is also the all-time MSU career winner with 124 victories. • Eli Blazeff, who is a two-time All-Amer­ ican, entered the record books by winning 42 matches this season, the most wins by any Spartan wrestler in a single season. • Mason, a l983 — 84 All-American, holds ohe MSU records for most falls in a career by pinning 54 of his opponents. With the loss of six team members, Peninger faces the very tough job of filling the vacant weight classes and rebuilding the team into a conference contender. “We just have to have a tremendous re­ building program to filthe losses in six of our weight, classes,” Peninger said. “The success of this year’s team will definitely help us in recruiting the new talent we need.” Even though Peninger will be relying heav­ ily on the performances of may new, un­ tested wrestlers for the future success of the team, he said he cannot see the im­ mediate future being that much different from past seasons. “I see the future of Michigan State wrestling as always being bright,” Peninger said. —Jerry Serafini JOHN BEAUDOIN TRIES to tire out his oppo- THREE-TIME ALL-AMERICAN Mike Potts nent by riding him aroynd the mat. walks off the mat after one of his 124 victories. 108 Wrestling WRESTLING MS U score appears last MSU INVITE Ohio Open Michigan Open Lock Haven Open Midlands Tournament OKLAHOMA Indiana loledo Slippery Rock Indiana State Northwestern ILLINOIS PURDUE Michigan Minnesota Oklahoma State N.

And since wrestlers like Potts only come along once in a lifetime, the job seems virtually impossible. What makes the search so difficult is Potts overwhelming success. During his MSU career, Potts became the most successful wrestler in Spartan history, winning 124 matches. In addition to that mark, Potts also set records for most falls in one season (23), and the quickest fall in Big Ten Tournament history (:43). "I feel really good about the records I hold," Potts said, "I just hope that no one breaks them for a long time so I'll be able to show my children when we come back According to Potts, the records •weren't even in his mind when he wrestled; his primary goal was to win everytime out. It didn't take Potts very long to turn his goal into reality. During his freshman year, he became an All-American wrestler, a feat which he would also accomplish in his sophomore and senior years. Potts finished off his career by winning the Big Ten heavyweight championship and finishing eighth in the NCAA Tournament. Being successful was something Potts always was at MSU, regardless of which weight class he wrestled. During his first three years, Potts wrestled in the 190-pound class, and enjoyed immediate success. Before his senior year however, Potts was informed by Penmger that he would now be wrestling in the heavyweight division. Most wrestlers would only accept this assignment with a fight, but not Potts; he welcomed the change. "I was glad when Grady (Peninger) told me I'd be wrestling in the heavyweight class this year because I never wanted to diet again," Potts said. Potts said that since most of his opponents were bigger than he was, he just went out and tried to tire his opponent out. Whatever the strategy, it worked to perfection, as Potts enjoyed his most successful season as a Spartan wrestler. The ability to successfully switch weight classes is one thing that Potts said will stick out in his mind when he looks back on hts career at MSU. With his college wrestling career over, Potts said he will be concerrtrating on a number of different things, one being a member of the 1988 U.S. Olympic Team. "If I can find a good place to train, I will probably try out for the 1988 Olympic team," Potts said. "It all depends on if I feel I can achieve anything else: I'm going to take it one day at a time and see what "Whatever happens. I'd like to stay involved with wrestling.

Mike Talcott, Jeff West and Todd Vinston. The team captains were Sharon Fergu- - hi and Dave Besemer. They were coached by tony Pizza, who volunteered his time. Pizza cached cheerleaders at Pontiac Catholic High School for five year, and for those five consecu­ tive years. Pontiac Catholic's cheerleading squad took first place in cheerleading competitions. Pi/za also coached Western Michigan Univer­ sity’s squad before coming to MSU. The competition for obtaining a spot on the team can be grueling. The try-outs last approx­ imately two and a half months with instructional clinics, practices and finally, the cuts, with one a week for three week. Tryout requirements in elude gymnastic stunts such as back handsprings, standing back tucks and many tumbles, all to counts. For cuts, the hopefuls also learned the fight song and other dance routines. Most of the cheerleader were either cheerleaders or athletes in high school, with many involved in gymnas- Once the team has been formed, which was during the previous spring term, they began to prepare for the upcoming school year. Through­ out the summer months they were advised to practice with their partners, which posed a prob­ lem for partners who do not live near each other. They also attended a one-week cheerleading camp over the summer. This year's squad went to Blacksburg, West Virginia, along with many other college teams. The MSU cheerleaders were one of the few northern squads to attend. All of their cheers are original, either being vari­ ations on cheers learned at camp or originals developed by Pizza. The team performs many male female stunts, synchronizations and dance routines, also. The team cheers during football and basket­ ball games, pep rallies and other events. They also attend all of the away games, however, they can only travel with 10 members. They travel by van or station wagon and must cheer at the away games on a rotation basis, with high seniority members having first choice of which games they would like to attend. In addition to cheering the Spartans teams to victory, the MSU cheerleaders sponsor ban quets, make appearances and also put on a brunch before each football game. The highlight of their wear, however, was attending the Na tional Cheerleading Competition on January 2. The team, which remained in East Lansing dur­ ing Christmas break, practices five days a week in preparation for the competition. Never having been to a cheerleading competition, the squad won the. second place award, under first-place Memphis State, which had also won the previ­ ous year. They put many hours into their four- minute dance cheer-stunt-gymnastics routine which won their award. —Michele Ferenchick BEING ABLE TO SMILE while balancing on your partner's hands takes practice and concen­ tration. although Patty Morse makes it look HE MSU POM PON GIRLS performed during alf-tiine at football and basketball games. Fencing team. FRED FREIHEIT’S COACHING techniques in volve many practice drills. o Schmitter, No Better New coach foiled in try for winning season SU started a new fencing era in 1984. For the first time in 46 years the team was Schmitter-less. Charles Schmitter resigned as head coach and Fred Freiheit, a Schmitter pupil, took over. For Freiheit and his fencers the year was disappointing, but not a total loss. Despite compiling a 5-6 conference record and finishing last at the Big ten Champion­ ships, the team salvaged a 12-12 overall mark. • Rob Beatty earned the right to be called the team’s best fencer. The 5'10", 135- pound sabre fencer won 71 percent of his regular season bouts and placed eighth out of 10 sabre fencers at the Big Ten finals. “Beatty is coming back next season and should do very well,” Freiheit said. “There’s a point you come to in fencing when every­ thing kind of falls together. You might have been quite good before, but you get to be very good when it falls in place. It’s like the step function in mathematics, where some­ thing is going along on a level and then all of a sudden it jumps up.” Three others earned letters and each placed ninth in their respective weapons at • the championships. Foil fencer Mike Dority, a senior, won 65 percent of his season bouts; senior Jim Gosler, a sabre fencer, held a winning season record of 57 percent; Pete Haeussler, another senior, triumphed in 56 percent of his epee matches. Freiheit’s fencers have their perspec­ tives in order. Their schoolwork comes first; fencing is a close second. “Most of my fencers are absolutely not the typical athletes,” he said. “They are, what I would say, highly intellectual. They’re all concerned about studies. I don’t think I have anyone on the team who has less than a 3.0 GPA, at least a 2.8. They are right up there, some of them have a 3.5. So they feel, and I feel, that scholastics are just as important as fencing.” Fencing is more a sport for participants than for spectators. Overshadowed by such sports as football, basketball and hoc­ fencing fails to attract the media key, coverage it deserves. Many people don’t un­ derstand the sport. In fencing, a team normally consists of nine men, three for each of the weapons— foil, sabre and epee. The basic rules for each weapon are the same. Two fencers duel along a fencing strip 14 meters long and two meters wide. The first fencer to score five touches against his opponent is the winner. There are no draws. Foil descended from the court practice weapon, which was used for killing. In foil competition there is a limited target of just the trunk. That is, the arms, legs and head are not a part of the target. Touches are scored only with the point of the weapon. In foil, as in sabre, there is a rule called right of way. If a fencer is attacked, he is obliged to defend himself, or parry, before he is allowed to go on the offensive. The sabre weapon has both an edge and a point. Most touches are scored by using the edge. As in foil* the fencers are to duel I as if they were trying to kill each other, but I the |iarget is different. Everything above I the hips, including the arms and head, is I 112 Fencing “There’s a point you come to in fencing when everything kind of falls together.’’ — Fred Freiheit FENCING MSpfèG'ôrejgppe^pSiit Ohio Michigan CclubD Wayne State Northwestern Notre Dame Wisconsin Minnesota Illinois Chicago lilinois Purdue Chicago Wisconsin Wisconsin Parkside Minnesota Cleveland State Purdue Case Western Cornell Bowling Green Oberlin Tri State U-M Dearborn Detroit BIG TEN: Fifth Place OVERALL RECORD: 12-12 18 3 10-22 24- 3 15-12 25- 2 20 7 13-14 20 7 4 23 23- 4 13-14 11-16 24- 3 9-18 12-15 15-ft 9 18 8 19 19 8 9 18 1 26 18- 9 10-17 18 9 were practiced. “You have to learn to walk differently,” explained Freiheit, “and bring it up to an edge. It’s good physical training-lit gets the muscles going.” So what makes a good fencer? “You have to have a good eye-hand coor­ dination and a good sense of distance,” said ¡She coach, “which is really depth perception, sometimes within a fraction of an inch. “The other characteristic which is impor­ tant is fast reactions. Most fencers have reaction times one and a half to two times faster than a normal person. “I remember when I went into the service and I got a military driver’s license. It was required that they take your reaction time. When he tested me, he couldn’t believe what he was seeing. He tested me three times! He checked the machine over to see if it was functioning correctly.” —Jerome Murphy TRYING TO AVOID thrusts and come back with a quick parry is all part of foil fencing. Fencing 113 fair game. The weapon evolved from the ca­ valry sabre which was used in horse com­ bat. Bouts in epee, a weapon modeled from the modern dueling sword, are somewhat different from those in foil and sabre. In I modern duels the primary goal is to draw first blood. So the main epee target is the arms and legs, although the whole body is actually part of the target. No right of way : exists, and touches that occur simultane­ ously are allowed. Contrary to popular myth, fencers rarely get injured. Even if injuries do occur, they ! are not serious. “You can get bruises or that type of the | weapon breaks and thrusts are made with thing,” said Freiheit, “especially if the shorter, heavier portion.” MSU’s fencers started their training in the fall. Their first two to three weeks of training concentrated on footwork exer­ cises, which even the most experienced fencer must' continually sharpen.

A Team of Scrappers After a dismal start, Spartans go on to break five records and beat Michigan twice ince 1984 marked the 100th birthday of Spartan baseball, MSU fans would • have to agree that the team looked awfully good for its age. In fact, con- trarv to the usual aging process, it appears that the 1984 baseball team can be compared to a bottle of good wine, since both get better with age. Led by second-year coach Tom Smith, and co-captains Mike Eddington and Tom Shook, the 1984 Spartan baseball team compiled a 32-26 overall, 8-7 Big Ten rec­ ord. By reaching the 32 victory plateau, the team not only became the second most successful squad in the history of Spar­ tan baseball, but also placed in the Big Ten playoffs for the second consecutive year. “We always expect to do well when we begin the season,” Smith said. “But we real­ ly weren’t sure how well we’d do this year since we had a lot of vacancies in the team’s line-up due to graduation. “Overall, I’m very happy with our finish; we turned out to be a good team and made all sorts of progress.” Using the word “progress” to describe MSU’s turnaround after the first weekend of the Big Ten season is a severe under­ statement. Following a lackadaisical show­ ing against Ohio State, the Spartans’ change in performance could be deemed a complete transformation. If one looked at the box scores from the OSU series, one might get the impression that the Spartans forgot something very important when they loaded the bus round for Columbus—their baseball gloves. In a four-game series with the Buckeyes, the Spartans committed 13 errors, which cost the team three games. Smith said that even though the season did start on a rather dismal note, no one was ready to push the panic button. “I don’t think they COSU) beat us three out of four, I think we lost those games; we just played poorly,” he said. From that point however, there was no­ where to go but up, and that’s exactly where the Spartans went. During the ensuing weeks, MSU catapulted itself right back into the Big Ten race by sweeping Indiana and splitting double-headers with Purdue and Michigan. Smith said that although some people think that qualifying for the Big Ten playoffs and sweeping Indiana were among the Spartans' most notable mo­ ments, he thinks about somthing else when he reflects back upon the 1984 season. “The year was really full of highlights, ranging from individual to team accomplish­ ments, but probably the most memorable event was scoring 11 runs in one inning against Michigan,” Smith said. Trailing 5-3 when they came to bat in their half of the sixth inning, the Spartans had their heads on the proverbial chopping block I as it appeared that they were about to suf-1 fer their third straight loss to the boys from I Ann Arbor. Just then however, the Spar-1 tans began playing like a team possessed, I sending 16 men to the plate and pounding I out 11 runs on 1 □ hits. The victory, coupled I with a double-header split one day earlier, I marked the first time since 1979 that the I Spartans were able to beat Michigan twice I in the same season. Aside from their success in the stand-1 ings, the Spartans made their presence|j more permanently known in the MSU record I books by shattering five MSU team rec-1 ords-H-most hits, runs, doubles, runs bat- I ted in and home runs. According to Smith, much of the team’s I success was due to the fact that “the team I members were scrappers who showed a lot a of character by always pulling together I when they were down.” Smith also credited the performances of I seniors Mike Eddington, Chris Hayner, Tom Shook and Mike Whitman, along with juniors Dave Corey and Cordell Ross, as being in­ strumental to the team’s success. .

Quiet Killer Kirk who? Okay, maybe it's too soon to thing that Kirk Gibson's accomplishments on Kobs field will be forgotten, but in 1984. one Spartan baseball player—Mike Edding­ ton—chipped away at the pedestal on which Gibson sits. By the time the 1984 season came to a close, Eddington owned two of Gibson's single season records—most home runs and most runs batted in—as he hit 20 round trippers and drove in 66 runs. But Eddington’s assault on the MSU record book did not end with Gibson. The career home run, total bases, and runs scored records also fell victim to Eddington in 1984. For Eddington however, the road to success was filled with obstacles. After graduating from high school. Eddington chose to play baseball at a junior college. And following two very successful seasons of baseball, he transferred to MSU to play baseball for the Spartans. "I really wasn't ready to play Big Ten baseball after high school, so I decided to play for Grand Rapids Junior College," Eddington said. "It turned out to be the best thing for me because I learned a lot Tom Smith, MSU's baseball coach, said that he recalled scouting Eddington at least a dozen times after his sopho­ more year at GRJC and immediately seeing his potential. Smith said, "When I first saw Mike (Eddington) bat, I was impressed with his power. Every ball he hit well took off like a good two-iron shot in golf. “Another thing that impressed me was his sense of determination. He was a take charge type of player at first base and was all business at the plate; he was like a quiet killer, an assassin type." However, Eddington's first year as a Spartan was anything but promising. Since his batting average was only. 180 with only three home runs, Eddington was taken out of the starting line-up and saw only minimal action during the rest of the campaign. But the bad season may have been a blessing in disguise for Eddington and the entire Spartan team since he said it forced him to concentrate on doing well As it turned out, the hard work paid off for Eddington as he batted . 357 and was named to the 1984 Big Ten All-Tournament team and was voted first team All-Big Ten. —Jerry Serafini 115 THE SOFTBALL TEAM MEMBERS were a close-knit group, both on the field and off.

Maddening. These were some of the descriptions the very- talented MSU women’s softball team used to illustrate its fortunes in the 1984 season, which was about as in­ consistent as the inhospitable spring weath­ er it was forced to play in. Expecting big years from some of her returning sluggers;”: Coach Gloria Becksford watched helplessly as many of her team’s rallies fizzled in the drizzle. “We hit the ball hard, but it was always right at people,” senior catcher Terry Swink moaned. “We had a lot of people on base, but we just didn't hit them in.” As a result, the Spartans finished with a overall record of 22 —2B—1, 8—1 5 in con­ ference play. This was a marked decline from their 26—21—1, 9 — 11 mark of 1983. The big bashers—senior first baseman Deanne Moore, centerfielder Becky Aimes­ bury and Swink—never really got untracked at the plate and as a result, the Spartans lacked the timely hit when it counted most. The bats were silenced further when hard­ hitting, slick-gloved senior shortstop Linda Bache injured a tendon in her arm in late April and missed the big showdowns with the University of Michigan, Central Michi­ gan University and Ohio State University. The Spartans were deep on the mound, however, as senior Diane Kennett teamed up with newcomer Diane Gentry, a transfer from the University of South Carolina, to pose a formidable, one-two attack against enemy batters. Gen­ try’s season was highlighted by a spar­ kling no-hit perfor­ mance against Ohio State May 5. Overall, the pitching staff fin­ ished with an earned run average of about two runs per game, good for fourth place in the conference. The picture for next year,' happily, does not look too bleak Coach Becksford can look forward to the emergence into top-flight players of three 1984 rookies who showed blue-chip promise. Second baseman Tracy Beadlescomb was a terror at the plate in the early part of the campaign and rightfielder Stephanie Smith ended up leading the team with a .341 batting average. Also impres­ sive was pitcher Jodi McDonald, who should join with returnees Kennett and Gentry to further strengthen MSU’s pitching corps. —Mark Nowlin TIFFANY COX SNARES a hot ground­ er in the infield.

The class included Odessa Smalls, an All-Amer­ ican runner from Brooklyn, N.Y., Marcelle Kendall and Connie Burnett. Added to this, Dennis knew she could count on the return of distance runner Anne Pewe, who was red-shirted last year because of an ankle injury, and Karen Campbell, in for her final and best season as a Spartan runner. “We were a very young team,” Dennis said. “I can’t say inexperienced because the fresh­ men we brought in this year were seasoned freshmen and had all been in national com­ petition.” And seasoned they were. Records were smashed right and left in both indoor and outdoor events. A glance at some of the more sensational meets: • At the Don Wright Invitational, Vivian Fisher, a sophomore, broke the MSU shot- put record for the second week in a row with a toss of 50 feet 1 TV2 inches.

Fisher again set a record for the shot-put, this time throwing the lead ball 52 feet,uA inch. Marcelle Kendall, one of the many talented freshmen, took top honors in the 440-yard dash with a time of 55.18 and also qualified for the NCAAs. Campbell snapped the MSU record in the three-mile run with a time of 15:27.59. * At the Tigerbelle relays no records were broken, but Pewe, Campbell and Gloria Tyree finished first in the 1,500-meter run, 10,000-meter run and high jump respec­ tively. The list goes on and on. Dennis sent six runners to the NCAAs—Smalls, Kendall, Burnett, Joanna Childress, Campbell and Fisher—and each was ranked among the top 10 collegians in her event. “It was really encouraging to see everyone running so fast so early,” Dennis said. “The young ladies that we have on this team are very good.

Poor recruiting blamed for netters' last place finish ANTED: Good competitive tennis players who are interested in playing for the MSU men’s tennis team. Pre­ fer person with prior tournament ex- WM perience. Inquire in room 304, Jeni- son Field House. Stan Drobac, who has coached the MSU men’s tennis team for 27 years, hasn’t re­ sorted to this classified advertisement in The State News as of yet, but if he decided to, it certainly couldn't hurt his cause. By finishing the season with a 3-1 7 over­ all, 0-9 Big Ten record, the 1984 MSU men’s tennis team found itself occupying the same position in the Big Ten standings as last year’s squad — dead last. But instead of citing bad performances by team members as the reason for the team’s bad season, Drobac readily accepts the blame himself. “Our team has not done well recently be­ cause we haven’t been able to recruit state champions or nationally ranked players (to play for MSUI,” Drobac said. “I will probably will have to do a better job recruiting.” Lacking the type of talent which is neces­ sary to successfully compete with Big Ten opponents, the Spartans wre forced to take victories in non-conference matches. But even this was no simple task. The Spar­ tans found themselves sporting an 0-11 re­ cord before finally being able to chalk up a win against Central Michigan University. Five additional weeks elapsed before MSU again tasted victory, but this time it was sweeter as the Spartan netters strung two wins together by knocking off Eastern Michigan University and Marquette. Even though the Spartans were only able to record wins against non-conference op­ ponents, Drobac said there was a time dur­ ing the season when he actually thought the team would beat a Big Ten team. Drobac said, “Going into the Iowa match, I tried to convince our players that Iowa was not that much better than we were — and they ended up finishing fourth in the Big Ten. “If we could have beaten Iowa and also won a couple of more matches, we might have developed some momentum and done a good job.” Without this momentum however, the team could never get going and subse­ quently ended up scoring two points or less in 14 of their 17 losses. But according to Drobac, even though the team kept losing, neither hefinor his team members became despondent. “I never got frustrated when the team was losing, and I never found that team morale went down,” he said. “All we tried to do was to keep doing the best we could. “All the guys on this year’s team did well they all did a good job.” —Jerry Serafini 122 Men’s Tennis MEN’S TENNIS appf^Slast Murray State Murray State Vanderbilt Lander Furman Georgia Purdue ^Minois WESTERN MICHIGAN IOWA NORTHWESTERN Central Michigan Wisconsin Minnesota Michigan Indiana OhB State EASTERN MICHIGAN MARQUETTE NOTRE DAME BIG TEN: 0-9 OVERALL RECORD: 3-17 7-2 8-0 7-2 7-2 9-0 9-0 7-2 8-1 6-3 6-3 8-1 1-8 9-0 9-0 8-1 6-3 7-2 1-8 - 2 7 7-2 ' “I will probably have to do a better recruiting job.” —Stan Drobac AN AGGRESSIVE BACKHAND always makes for a good tennis player.

Because playing skills im­ proved and a strong sense of team unity developed, the women had a gratifying season, despite their ninth place finish in the Big Ten. “We weathered some adversity and did it in pretty good style,” commented Coach Earl Rutz. The Big Ten season opened with two very unexpected losses to Illinois and Purdue. Disappointed but determined, the young team set out to recover. “We encountered some difficulty on the road,” explained Rutz, “but had to survive it.” Other setbacks included the loss of some key players due to various misfortunes. Early in the season, Blanca Mandez, a top player from Venezuela, ran into financial and academic difficulties which forced to to re­ turn to her country. Another player, Kathy Carrqlj| who joined the team late as a walk- on and was eventually starting the singles and doubles, underwent stress fractures in both of her tibias which put her out for most of the Big Ten season. The team also lost two previous members who were ex­ pected to return this year. Though as a team, they did not have the overall playing power or experience to push the top teams in the country, there were many good individual performances against nationally ranked players. The team’s Most Outstanding Player was freshman Tracy Balagna. Balagna is proba­ bly the best doubles player ever at Michigan State, according to Rutz, and she’s one of the top singles players as well., Says Rutz, “Balagna is a competitor in the true sense of the word. . . she can reach back in adver­ sity and meet the challenge.” In doubles, Balagna was consistently dominant in her play at the net. Her major breakthough in developing singles confidence came when she defeated Wisconsin player Charlene Kaya, a highly sought after recruit in the region, in the opening tournament oflthe Indoor Classic in November. Balagna once again defeated Kaya at the Big Ten Cham­ pionship when she bounced back after losing the first set. The women’s season ended with an excit­ ing win over Iowa to avoid 10th place in the Big Ten championship. Three players who had not yet won a match in the Big Ten season had their first victories at the Championship. “The unsung heroes,” stated Rutz. “They're the ones that won it for us.” One of those unsung heroes was freshman Molly McNamara. “It proved to me,” she explained, “that I could play along with everyone. I really felt like part of the team because I was contributing to the team’a success.” McNamara’s point was the one needed to win. felt After a year of hard work and persever­ ance, Rutz large number of the freshmen on the team had matured into a strong unit. The win at the Big Ten Cham­ pionship set the team up well to open next year on a winning note. —Donna Lussier TRACY BALAGNA RETURNS a serve from her opponent with gusto. Women’s Tennis 125 Respectable Finish ■B Golfers finish sixth in the Big Ten, but the real excitement comes next year or almost two decades, troops, carry­ ing only metal clubs, have been led In ;o battle by Bruce Fossum. However, the battles undertaken by Fossurr 's troops are in no way comparable ;o famous assaults like the invasion of Nc r- mandy, the obvious reason being that Fcs- sum’s battlefields consist of the finest col­ legiate golf courses in the U.S., where tiie A NINE-IRON or a sev­ en? How do golfers ever decide? INTENSE CONCEN­ TRATION is necessary to line a putt up just otjly thing at stake is the reputation of his army, the MSU men’s golf team. This year, the Spartan «nksters, who comprised the 19th MSU golf team which Fossum has coached, finished the season by placing sixth in the Big Ten championship tournament. Aside from their relatively strong finish in Big Ten competition, MSU aiso placed very high in two early season outings. The tournament which highlighted the 1984 season for the Spartans was the Miami Invitational, which was held in Miami, Ohio, during the spring. Sparked by a run­ ner-up performance by junior Tommy Rose, the Spartans were able to beat ■■■other, teams and captured the tournament crown by five strokes. “We were able to win in Miami since we had ||ist come off a successful spring trip in Florida, and we were ready to play,” Fos­ sum said. Although Rose, who was already named captain of the 1985 MSU golf team, was one of the team’s most consistent players, Fossum remarked that the team's success never rode on one person’s performance, as everyone seemed to contribute. “We didn’t have any standouts or stars on this year’s team,” he said. “What we did have was a bunch of hard working dedicated players who took turns doing well. “We didn't have the kind of players who could put is (the ball] down in par or under, but® could depend on the team to always play hard and solid.” With this season now behind him, Fossum awaits next year’s campaign with the same amount of excitement that one would ex­ pect from a child on Christmas Eve. Fossum’s enthusiasm lies primarily in the fact that he wilmbe losing only five of his players to graduation. And even though both of the team captains from! 984, Tom Ross and Bob Fossum, will be included, 14 underclassmen will be eligible to return and play for the Spartans next year. Even the absence of Bob Fossum, who competed in the second highest number of tournaments (72] during his four-year career at MSU, will have little effect on the team’s future. According to Fossum, within a couple of years, the Spartans should have a top- notch golf team. Fossum is banking most of his optimism on freshman John Kosier. And Fossum believes there is no reason why he shouldn’t mold the future of the Spartan golf team around his freshman phenom. In only his first year of Big Ten competition, Kosier led all Spartan golfers with a 76.5 stroke average. Fossum referred to Kosier as being both a great golfer and competitor. Fossum added that he believes Kosier is going to be one of the best players that he’s ever' coached. “With a couple of more years (of experi­ ence] under his belt, he’s (Kosier] not only going to be one of the better players in the Big Ten, but also one omthe better players in the country.” Fossum is so positive about Kosier’s po­ tential, that even though he hasn't had the opportunity to coach an MSU All-American since Brad Hyland in 1 984, he already be­ lieves that Kosier will be the next Spartan to attain this prestigious honor. Fossum said of Kosier, “He’s going to be in the class of other All-Americans." —Jerry Serafini Men’s golf team: Front row: Mike Kaye, Robert Redford, Steve McKalko, Chris O’Connor, Rob Ford, Tom Rose.

Back row: Head Coach Mary Fossum, Lisa Marino, Paige Green, Carrie Holland, Lisa Ely, TerrieToigo, Kathy Teichert, Beth McGee. Best Team in the Region Greenand Marino turn questions marks into exclamation points he 1 983 fall season had some "pleas­ ant surprises” for head coach Mary Fossum’s women golfers, including four championship titles in seven tour­ naments. Those surprises came in the form of two freshmen golfers who came on to score the third and fourth best averages on the team and added depth to the already talented duo of co-captains Barb Mucha and Kathy Teichert. At the onset of the season Fossum, be­ ginning her 12th year as head coach, knew that senior Mucha and junior Teichert would score well for her every tournament. What she didn’t know was the status of the rest of the team, a lot of question marks re­ mained when two-time All-American Syd Wells graduated. But Paige Green and Lisa Marino more than answered Fossum’s questions. “I was pleasantly surprised at the play of Lisa and Paige,” Fossum said. “Especially so early in the year. You never know how freshmen will react when they come into a situation like that. But they carried the load and gave us added strength.” The freshmen provided enough punch for the Spartans to win two of their first three tourneys. With Mucha taking medalist hon­ ors and frosh scoring well, MSU coasted to victories in the Illinois State In­ vitational and the Wolverine Invitational. the Later in the season, the Ferris Invitational title was added (Teichert taking first place] and then another first-place title at the Bowling Green Invitational where Green came away with her first medalist honors, proving just how competitive the freshmen were. But, according to Fossum, the Spartans best performance didn’t come in any of the four tourney victories, but in the Northern Intercollegiate Championships in Iowa City, Iowa, where MSU was the runner-up to pe­ rennial power Ohio State. “That was our best weekend,” Fossum said. “That was when everything came to­ gether and we shot our lowest scores. We feel right now (heading into the spring sea­ son) that were the best team in our region. We proved it by beating everyone else (OSU is in a different region, according to the NCAA).” Mucha led the Spartans in that tourna­ ment with a second place finish and a sea­ son average of 77.4 for 18 holes. Teichert was not far behind with a season average of 78.6. Freshman Marino was third in individual average with 79.1 and Green was fourth with an average of 80.4 With scores like that from first-year players, Fossum should be in store for four years of “pleasant surprises.” —Eric Schurer JAN LESPERANCE FOLLOWS through withj perfect form.JT BARB MUCHA SHOWS the swing the made her one of MSU’s most consistent golfers. Women’s Golf tuck On 77 MSU golf captain Barb Mucha couldn't be happier if she never scored another 77 in her life. “I want to have a little more variety in my scoring,” said the Spartan’s low shooter in the 1983 fall season with an average of 77.4. “I hate being stuck on 77. I think being up and down would be better. I don't see myself shooting over 80,1 can usually scramble and get under. What I need to do is get lower Cthan 77) when I am playing well.” If Mucha, titlist in two tournaments in the fall, shoots any lower in the spring season she will find herself in the medalist position more and more often. This spot has eluded her since she notched two titles in her freshman season at Cincinnati. “I had a lot of confidence coming into this season,” Mucha said. "I was coming off a good summer season and I won a tourney in Kentucky, that was my first major win. That really gave me confi­ dence to know that I could do it again.” “Barb established herself as our scoring leader,u head coach Mary Fossum said. “She had a very good average last year, but she was always playing in the shadow of Syd Wells (MSU’s two-time All-American). Ninety percent of the time her score will count (towards the team total) and most of the time it will be our lowest.” But it hasn’t always been this way for Mucha who transferred to MSU in 1982 when Cincinnati dropped their varsity golf program. She didn’t make the first road trip in that fall season for MSU and she began to doubt her own ability. “Not making the first fall trip last season turned out to be a good thing,^ Mucha said. "It made me work harder. I didn’t know how I would fit in after transferring here. It made me feel good later when I was able to help out the team by playing number one or two.” And despite some ups and downs in 1983, that spot has been one she has given up grudgingly. —Eric Schurer “We f eelright now (heading into the spring season) that we’re the best team in our region.” —Mary Fossum WOMEN’S GOLF Illinois St. Invitational: 1 st place of 9 teams Oklahoma St. Invitational: 10th place of y6 teams Michigan Invitational: 1 st place of 8 teams MSU INVITATIONAL: 4th place of W5 teams Northern Intercollegiate: 2nd place of 19 teams Ferris State Invitational: H^t place of B teams Lady Kat.

"It was difficult to learn at first,” Garcia said, “but after I got throwing and catching down, I caught on pretty quickly. "For me though, the best game of my whole career was beating Ohio Wesleyan. this year, ” he exclaimed. Garcia had one goal and one assist against the heavily-favored Ohio powerhouse, but the whole team played well that day. “We were the first non-Ohio team in the Midwest to beat them.” Garcia was proud to be chosen to the second All-Midwest team, but was disappointed that two of his teammates, both attackmen;, and both also chosen to the second team, weren’t on the first. “Riney Wilke was 10th in the nation in assists and Marc Berman was rated fifth in the country. Nobody in the Midwest was even close to them.” As a graduating senior, Garcia doesn’t see lacrosse in his future, at least for one year. “I’ll be going to law school at the University of Michigan in the fall. They have a club team there, so I won’t have to worry about NCAA eligibility. I won’t play for the first year though. I want to concentrate on studying and get a grip on law school.” —Jamie DePolo Mi ü "dS®*' -It 130 Lacrosse MIN SI v as ■ll ■■ Wm ÜB lii■ §1 fm a SsiSap ■ptsl IP ■■■ SI kM MS ¡■¡■lii■K ¡¡■Is - ; ■ m Mllll M ■K Ml& Mi Third and Moving Up Two one point losses keep laxers out of first place, but they beat Ohio Wesleyan.

The Spartan laxers had tied the 1978 club for the best record on the books, notching nine wins and seven losses overall, and they had also beaten per­ ennial champion Ohio Wesleyan for the first time ever in the history of MSU lacrosse. “Beating Ohio Wesleyan was the best thing that happened this year,” said Kimball. “It was a team effort, everybody played their best game that day. They (Ohio Wes­ leyan] were 7—0 going in to the match and we beat them 7—6.” Kimball’s team had two goals this year: to better last year’s record and to finish higher than third place in the Midwest La­ crosse Association’s final standings. They did finish 9—7 this year, but remained in third place, exact­ ly where they were at the end of the season last year. LACROSSE MSU scores appear last C.W.

In his first year the Spartans were a dismal 0—10, and it has been all uphill from there. Next year looks to be an even better season for the laxers, due partly to the fact that eight out of nine midfielders, eight of nine defensemen and all six attackmen are re­ turning. “Our prospects for next year are excellent,” Kimball said. “It should be our year to challenge for the championship.” □h, by the way, what was Kimball doing floating in the river after the Chicago game anyway? “It's gotten to be kind of a tradition to throw the coach in after the last practice,” Kimball said laughingly. “Only this year they missed me after practice, so they decided to do it after the game “I didn’t mind getting wet because I was already soaked from the rain (it poured dur­ ing the team’s last game], but being in that river is really awful.” As he said this Kimball wrinkled up his nose and grimaced. Even though he may be all wet at times, Kimball has turned lacrosse into a winning sport at MSU. “We’re getting better teams in here now because of recruiting,” Kimball said. “During my first year here, we had only five guys who had ever played lacrosse before. This year we had only one guy who hadn’t.” Ohio Wesleyan has better be looking over their shoulders next year. —Jamie DePolo Lacrosse 131 Slip ili l :i!.»i ih... i * m •••••• ••• Hmm ••• mir s9■ ■ Hi Hi::: : : »rii: I ftf ••• SS Fi shheads Flatten the Opposition the tournment Spinsters up against each other for the the Fishheads and left "There were really high winds that day.

The Men's Ultimate Frisbee team at Michigan State University has two major playing seasons; one in the fall and the other team in the spring. According to one member, the fall season is the most exciti if since that is when the regional and natior alj tournaments are played. This year the 15-member team made it to the semi-finals of the regional tourna­ ment and to the finals of the National Ccl- legiate Championship. The semi-final game of the National Crl- legiate Championship was one of the mot t spectacular games in the fall. MSU was be­ hind by five points near the end. but them came back to win 18 to 15. MSU plays many teams across the coui - try. In the regional tournaments they play such teams as Ohio. Chicago, St. Louis, Kansas, and the University of Michigan. Although most members of the team a .- tend MSU, anyone from the area can play.

Griffin said that most of their games in the regional tournament were a breeze to win. Their major competition came from the Boston Spinsters, the team which defeated them for the Purchase Cup in Purchase, New York. However, the Fishheads came back to beat the Spinsters in New Orleans at the National Championships. "That was a really exciting game." said Griffin.

The kick -off was Greek Sing, an entertaining compilation of song and dance routines. Frater­ nities paired up with sororities and spent weeks learning songs and getting over awkward left feet. The songfest winners were Alpha Phi and Sigma Nu. Songfest ended and made way for Greek Feast, an all day event which included food, drink, and crazy stunts.

We’re Delta Gamma and we will show you why!” blared in my ears as I walked through a soldier’s line-up of cheerfully dressed women standing at attention, wide-eyed and smiling. “Beth, this is Sandy. She’ll take you through.” Through what, I thought. My eyes wandered over the lush decor of the house. These sorority women have money, what am I doing here? My insides were quivering, but I maintained a stiff smile and nervously followed this Sandy, who didn’t fit my stereotypical sorority mold at all. I sat through more introductions, some demographic chatter and a skit, and then I was ushered out by Sandy who smiled warmly and waved good­ bye. From there I walked with a cluster of people to another house with those funny letters on the side. There the action started again with a new sea of faces. For four nights this went on. Vogue magazine would have had a field day with all the fashionable outfits on display. I felt dowdy in comparison. My cheeks were hopelessly stiff and I just knew I would never be able to frown again. I had told so many people my hometown and major that I had considered moving and changing majors to have something new to talk about. Nevertheless, when this phenomenal process called rush was over with, I found myself belonging to one of those groups with plastered grins and a beautiful house with funny letters. A year later I found myself in this situation again, only I was singing to scared freshmen, “Hey look us over give us the eye. . .” but it all had a new meaning because I knew a whole lot more. I wanted to reach out to these hesitant women and say “It’s okay; it’s not what you think. Just be yourself and have a good time.” As I smiled at them I remembered Sandy and her smile. It was genuine. She never looked like a “sorority girl” because she was herself belong­ ing to a sorority. Rush appears to be a highly mystical practice to those not belonging to the Greek system. It suffers a lot of criticism because of its anonymity. The basic idea behind rush is to get to know people who have the same goals as those al­ ready in the group. This is not unlike a church which searches for members who have the same beliefs or a club on campus that is looking for people in a particular major. The idea isn’t to exclude people, but to include those interested. Sororities operate in a more formal atmos­ phere. They invite women to visit their house for four nights in a row. Each night is a different phase (A, B, C and preference). The won an visit for a longer time each evening, starting i ut for 20 minutes and the last night staying for an hour. The first party is a “get to know ei ch other” visit and the last is more serious, show ng the rushees some of the ceremonies and tre di- tions of the sorority. Throughout the whole pr >c- ess the rushees are eliminating the houses tl ey are not interested in, and, the houses are ask ng back the women they are interested in. Fraternities operate in a more casual atm )s- phere. They invite interested men to their hou es to look around and meet the guys. They he ve an openhouse for four evenings and the hst evening they extend bids to approximately 15 rushees that they are interested in having in jt he house. Contrary to popular belief, rushees ¡ re looked at for their enthusiasm about the hou ;e, their activities and leadership abilities, and th air ability to get along with others, rather than their father’s occupation, dress or looks. The very essence of the event is individual people meeting other individuals with common goals. This was what the Greek system was founded upon. Together the individuals make a cohesive group and strive to achieve their —Beth Clark dreams. Alpha Xi Delta A major source of pride for Alpha Xi Delta this year ^^mwas the celebration o* its 50th anniversary. One hundred and seventy five alumni from all over the U.S. returned to the sorority for a banquet of speeches, reminiscing and award-giving. Fifty-four members are now ac­ tive in the sorority, the majority of whom are involved in on-campus activities. Said President Sally Leimbach. "We are a diverse bunch of women, in many activities which improve the Greek image. We're not just here to party." involved One activity which the sorority did share was its ski-a-thon at Crystal Mountain benefiting the American Lung Association.

Around that authentic anchor the women have stood many times chanting a tune and clapping and laughing as they watched a highly unusual custom taking place. This ritual puts a flush into fraternity members' faces and a shake into their knees. There's an unwritten policy in most fraternities that if a brother gets engaged or pinned to his girlfriend he is stripped to his Fruit- of-the-Looms and earned to the waiting anchor. There he is chained to the anchor by his shorts and observed by a crowd of girls chant­ ing "the whole world’s watching" and anyone who happens to pass by. The lucky man can either re­ main chained for an unidentified amount of time or choose the more viable alternative of shedding his undies and running for dear life.

A study done a few years ago at Michigan State showed that a majority of the leadership positions on campus were held by fraternity and sorority members—even though they constitute less than 10 percent of the student population. Those types of findings would normally be a crafty public relations aid. But non-Greeks looked upon it as just one more reason by why they wouldn’t want to be associated with a group of snobbish;, elitist, nose-in-the-air prep­ pies. Stereotypes like that kick Interfraternity Council President Dan Pilling right where it hurts. Pilling, also a i member of Delta Chi Fraternity, rediscov­ ered the extent of the preconception last Jan­ uary when he intro­ duced a new concept before the Greek Council. He proposed that identification cards be given to all fraternity and sorority members, allowing frat houses better protection against party crashers and providing dis­ counts for card holders. Pilling said the cards to introduced “alleviate problems because of damage” caused by crashers. He said the problem isn’t Greek crashers or even hall residents, but “motorcycle gangs—no one in the house even knows. were “They (the houses) don’t have to use the cards. It’s up to each house. I wasn’t pushing the cards on them, I was only providing a tool that could be used.” When the cards—which are plastic and im­ printed with the logos of the IFC, Panhellenic Council and National Panhellenic Council— were first proposed before the Greek Counc comments were made by Greeks that the cards might alienate themselves from the rest of th 3 student body, Pilling said. “There were concerns of a separation from the rest of the campus,” he said, “especially from representatives of the Panhellenic Council But they also want to be able to party with the guys (who invited them) and not others who might come in.” Pilling said there will be equal use of the cards by both frats and sororities because even though the “IFC might use (the card) a little more for parties, the Panhellenic Council might use it more for discounts” at area businesses. There was concern the first three weeks after the cards came out, he said, about the Greeks creating a barrier between themselves and the rest of MSU. But Pilling said the issue needs to be placed in perspective. “If you’re a student of MSU you’re alienating yourself from everybody else. Some houses even have cards from their National and alienate themselves from other Greeks. “I admit that we’re separating ourselves. Greeks are controversial and anything used to say ‘the Greeks did this’ will make news.” Nonetheless, he feels the cards are worth the expense and doesn’t see misuse as a future problem. “There’s always the possibility (of misuse). People are always going to misuse something, but it’s not to their benefit. We’re not worrying about that.” The card’s effectiveness will be “evaluated this year. The cards don’t have to continue next year, but the Greek houses will expect it next year. If they don’t want to do it next year then I’m not going to push it.” But Pilling’s most heated remark actually has very little to do with the operation of the Greek Council cards. “They try to stereotype the Greek with his nose in the air and wearing an Izod polo shirt. I cringe when they say all Greeks are alike. Each house is after a different thing. ” —Todd Carter nolta Tan hplta I/6IWm I Cl U 1#CILCI Hay Delts and what comes to mind? The Delta Tau Delta marathon "Dance for Strength", that's what. The mem­ bers take time out from the usual mixers, formals. and theme par­ ties in a normal college life to stage the marathon that, year af­ ter year, has become one of the largest student fundraisers in the country. Proceeds are given to help stop Multiple Sclerosis. The Delts see their fraternity as a place where members can grow in wisdom, maturity, and brother­ hood during their college days. They supplement their education with activities such as the mara­ thon. as well as several popular theme parties. On sunny days.

MSU Marketing Association Influenced by a desire to gain real experience in a business­ like environment, members of the Marketing Association worked with specific committees to meet this end. ‘The Association." said President Cheryl Nowak, "is a pro­ fessional student organization which bridges the gap between the academic and business worlds through practical experience and personal development." An example of one committee was the Community Services Committee which, among other things, created and maintained contacts with local businesses to provide them with student volun­ teers desiring internships. Another example was the Fi­ nancial Committee which worked to raise money for the Associa­ tion. One of the larger organizations on campus, the Marketing Associ­ ation boasts 450 members. Its membership consists not only of business majors, though. Says Nowak. "We feel with a greater cross section of student, we get better ideas." In January, the Association par­ ticipated in a two-day regional conference for all Association members. Workshops, case stud­ ies and researching and inter­ viewing techniques highlighted the conference. Its theme: "Mar­ keting in the 80s, Making Your Way to the Top." The Marketing Association won the award for “Contributing Most to Student Welfare" during the First Annual Student Organiza­ tions Awards ceremony. — Dan Biddle 158 Student Organizations MSU MARKETING ASSOCIATION: Front row: Laune Lenderink, Shawn Ricker, Saliy Smith, Antonetta Naurato.

Student Council ■ho student council is com­ prised of 35 members of the student body: representa­ tives from each of the colleges, six members-at-large (taken from the general student body), six members of the Council of Grad­ uate Students, representatives of the Steering Committee and a Chairperson. Their major function is to act as the student voice to the faculty, provost, president and Board of Trustees. As the student voice they deal with such matters as revisions and changes in aca­ demic curriculum, judicial proce­ dures and student academic rights. These issues are brought before the council by the students, facul­ ty, president, provost and vice president for student affairs and services. They have also been involved with resolutions for an alternative for the $300 surcharge which may be charged to engineering stu­ dents. The student council has also been very busy with the pres­ idential search. They are trying to make it possible for a student to represent the student body in the search for a new president for the university. This very powerful student or­ ganization has one third of the votes on the academic council which has the same amount of weight as a vote by a faculty member or college head. ‘Many students don't realize the clout that the student voice of this government system carries,” Chairperson Jeff Stevenson said. The student council has come a long way in the last four years since the change in policy occurred in which the president of the of the university was moved from the chair position and a student was moved in. This has given more students an awareness of the stu­ its purpose, dent council and which is to voice the concerns of the students to the administration. - Viclotia Thomas STUDENT COUNCIL: Front row: Ron Roz- man.

Residence Halls Association Most students are familiar with the annual spring concerts which take place | on campus and the hall govern- I ment systems and the myriad pro- I grams and entertainments which I they put on. What they don’t know 1 is who the major sponsor of these * functions is. The Residence Halls Association is the governing body for all students who live in the res­ idence halls. This organizaition has input and involvement with concerns of on-campus students. At the beginning of each aca­ demic year a student tax is col- j lected and distributed by RHA to I individual hall governments. With ; this money each hall will put on various programs for its residents, ice cream socials, hall movies and dances are some of these ac­ tivities. Another division of RHA is the! judiciary system. This is the cam­ pus court system which tries and hears cases dealing with res® dence hall disciplinary problems. - Victoria Thomas RHA: Front row: Lynn Taylor, Suzanne Chandler, Eric Jaeckie, Dave Beauvais, Jon Griswold, Herman Marable.

Packaging 170 Seniors—Agriculture/Natural Resources A Very Special Christmas Present December 1983 was the coldest December of the century at MSU. Fittingly enough, in the same month a historic frozen embryo birth oc­ curred here. On Christmas Day. an Arabian filly named Noel became the second horse in the United States to be born from a frozen embryo The birth was made possible through a team effort. Equine veterinarian Dr. Dean Neely headed the actual transplant procedures Ann Lamar, a licensed veterinary technician, was in strumental in washing the embryo and getting it prepared for freezing Finally. Dr -John Gunther and cryobiologist Todd McLaren care fully controlled the computer-controlled freezer that preserved the embryo in liquid nitrogen. Gunther, a former MSU professor, is currently in private practice in Indiana. McLaren works; ; for Cryogenic Systems Inc., the Indianapolis, Indiana firm that loaned the minicol freezer to MSU for the project. The benefits of frozen embryo transplants are significant. Horse breeders can store embryos for several months to obtain January foals, ideal for racing or show competition. Breeders want January foals because no matter when during the year a foal is born, the following January they are considered to be one year old. So foals born in January will actually be one year of age rather than six months or nine months. Also, genetic material from exceptional horses can be preserved for several years. The miracle began in December 1982 when an Arabian man* was artificially inseminated from the sperm of an Arabian stallion. "We have to have the mare to where we know exactly when she ovulates. " noted Neely. Six days after fertilization, the embryo, invisible to the naked eye. was flushed from the horse's uterus using a tube like instrument According to Neely, the technique took only about 15 minutes. Using a microscope. Neely examined the em bryo and evaluated it as normal The embryo was ready to be cleaned of mucus The previous night. Ann Lamar had prepared an antibiotic washing solution ‘‘It stayed in an incubatoi overnight to match the mare's body tempera­ ture." Lamar said. She added the embryo was washed three separate times The embryo was then surrounded in a cryopre- servative liquid and placed in the freezer. The time gap between the embryo's collection and the time freezing began was 10 hours, according to Neely Gunther and McLaren carefully began the delicate deep freeze "You have to keep freezing it at the right rate." Neely said. "You need to get it frozen without ice crystals form- For 18 days the embryo was frozen at - 321 F. It was then carefully thawed and sur gically implanted into tiie uterus of Jenny, the surrogate mare. Noel was born 348 days later Mike Yoder, MSU horse barn manager, assisted in Noel's delivery One month Liter. Noel was doing great. "She. a noimal foal, she's doing leal well." said Lamar. Neely agreed. "She's healthy and is actually growing much faster than the; other foals." —Jerome Murphy NOEL’S MOTHER, Jenny, recovered perfectly from the rather unusual circumstances of Noel’s birth and shows her daughter around the barnyard. David isti ANN LAMAR and Dean Neely, the doctors who performed the operation that created Noel, shows off how quickly the filly is growing. Noel was two months old in this picture. LIKE ALL YOUNG children, Noel was a bit shy at first about getting her picture taken, but soon relaxed and had no trouble snuggling up to the camera.

Lrk Trivia Isn’t Trivial As the 1983 Christmas season approached, students put down their books and picked up tiny game cards that held questions ranging from arts and literature to sports and leisure. Subjects that never interested students before took on a new challenge as friends gathered around a wheel-shaped board game, furiously tapping their knowledge of trivia in order to keep up with their opponents. Trivial Pursuit had arrived at Michigan State. The rules of Trivial Pursuit are simple enough. Players start in the middle of the wheel on the game board and head down the spokes, answer­ ing various questions in six categories: entertain­ ment. geography, history, art and literature, sci ence and nature, and sports and leisure. The category the player answers questions from is determined by the square the player lands on. The ultimate goal is to return to the center of the board for a ^hot at answering one last ques­ tion which is c Trivial Pursu en by the other players. fun enough when played by the rules that accompany the game. However, students have been known to adjust the rule to suit their fancy. The most popular form—the trivial chug match—quickly spread through campus last year as students lacking in trivia knowledge acquired beer bellies from answering trivia questions incorrectly. Jane Riesterer. a resident assistant in Hubbard BRITT PORTER SHAKES the dice in hopes of landing on an entertainment square. Porter and his friends have modified the game from Trivial Pursuit to “Trivial Death.” Hall, noticed the many residents were spending their leisure time on Trivial Pursuit. "It seemed educational as well as entertaining.” said Ries terer. “1 was surprised to hear several residents say they had already learned things from the game that their professors were teaching in For the serious player, there is the recently- established Trivial Pursuit Club on MSU's cam­ pus. The club offers new challenges to hard core trivia buffs. Any way you choose to play it, the national trivia craze got the attention of students in Spar tan Country. Since its introduction in the United States in 1983. there have been over 1.3 million copies of the game sold, and back orders con­ tinue to flood most retailers. More copies of Tri vial Pursuit have been sold in the past two years than all the Monopoly games sold since its intro­ duction in the 1930's. And for those who think they know the an­ swers to all the questions, new versions continue to spark interests. Four editions are out on the market which include the Genius, the most com­ mon and general game, the Silver Screen, spe­ cializing in movie and Flollywood facts. Baby- Boomer. which devotes all its questions to the 1950’s and 60's, and the All-Star edition for die hard sports fans. All the editions promise hours of fun and frustration, with mind-bending ques­ tions that make even the most expert trivia players sit back and say. “I knew that, how could I be so dumb. ” In the end, however, it’s all just —Barbara Gellott TRIVIAL DEATH, played frequently In Laridon Hall, especially on the third floor, has a unique twist added on to the game. If a person gets the question right, the individual who asked it has to drink a shot, and if he gets it wrong, he ; has to drink a shot. Trivial Pursuit 177 ■he Business College is one of the hottest schools on Michigan State’s cam­ pus. Thousands of under­ graduates have already declared business as their major. The Business School is com­ posed of seven different depart- ; ments: economics, accounting, gen­ eral business, business law, mate­ rials logistics and management, per­ sonnel adminstration and market­ ing. This way all aspects of business are covered. Paulette Stenzel, assistant profes­ sor, said, “Any area of business is popular because students are now more goal oriented and these skills: get them jobs.” The biggest change taking place in the Business College this year is in the business law department. Michigan State is taking the lead 1 ) revamping its core requirements ■■ r business law graduates. The co 2 requirements formerly dealt wi 1 traditional business law in societ | The new addition is governine it regulation of business which ad( a new angle to business law. —Beth Clat k ABBATE, Anthony J., East ; Lansing; ß: A.

In De­ cember, Stoddart became MSU’s eleventh re­ cipient of the distinguished Rhodes Scholarship. She is the third successive MSU female to re­ ceive the award and the only winner from a Big Ten university. Winning the scholarship was as much of a surprise for Stoddart as it was a pleasure. She entered the competition simply hoping to have a good time meeting and learning from the other students, never even imagining that she could be a Rhodes Scholar. “I was completely shocked,” she explained. Despite Stoddart’s modesty, one look at her personal achievements and attributes reveals a student quite worthy of the Rhodes distinction. Stoddart is an English/French major who re­ cently spent six months studying French and teaching English in Brittany, France. According to her academic advisor in the English depart­ ment, Alfred Goodson, she has taken a broad program emphasizing literature, as well as economic, linguistics, and the social sciences. But Goodson says, “Her personal qualities go far beyond her academic qualities." During four years of very challenging course work, Stoddart managed to further develop her in the extensive background and interest humanities outside of the classroom. While in; France, she not only became fluent in Fren hj but she learned the language of Brittany (E e- ton), and she explored Celtic literature and c ture. She loves classical music, and playing h| piano is a major part of her life. She also enj ys| art, especially impressionism. Aside from these activities, Stoddart wrote or The State News, worked with the learning < is-1 abled, served as an RA and participated in in a- mural sports. Though the academic program and extra-c ir-j ricular activities at MSU were both extren >ly j pleasing to Stoddart, her first love is the peo] le. j She chose the University for its friendly, n n-i competitive atmosphere and for the diversity of; its students. Stoddart cherishes the chance to return to 1 Europe in the fall for two intensive years of sti dy: in comparative literature at Oxford Univers :y. I She will be working for a Masters of Philosof - in English, and her costs will be completely c v- • ered by the scholarship. After that, she will oe 1 teaching English at the university level, and le , will continue her research in literature. Stodc art decided to teach university students because; oe wants to “help others get excited” about w raj she’s studying. “You can have a big impact oni other people,” she said. —Donna Lusi er HEIDT, Daniel J., Birmingham; B.A. Hotel . ft A Gone'at ' ; Business Administration i.

Remember this: freshman year and you’ve : just finished reading Of Mice and Men for ATL. You want to go out but, like most college stu­ dents, your funds are limited. What can you do? Where can you go? How do you know where to find the best specials? By your senior year, you’ve learned how to get by with little or no studying, and, of course, you know a great place to go every night of the week. In high school, you probably never dreamed you’d go out on a Monday night. But with Mac’s bar offering pitchers for $1.50, how could you refuse? “At Mac’s you can really let yourself go as long as you follow the dress code . . . old jeans and t-shirt, and dirty tennis shoes, ” Jim Coury. a marketing senior, said. “Besides, they’ve gotthe greatest jukebox in the universe. ” Now, way back when, the place to be on I Tuesday nights was Dooley’s. Dime night just couldn’t be beat—the long lines could-S-but not the price. But, alas, the bands gave way to stereo and Dooley’s became Sensations. Still the hottest place to be on a Tuesday night, Sen­ sations’ Tuesday night special is “Tall Blonde Night,” with longneck bottles of Miller for 95 cents and free cover charge. “At Sensations, once you get in,” said Ann Marie Hermanson, business senior, “the people are great.” Wednesday . . .' what’s so wonderful about Wednesday’s at MSU? Player’s Club, that’s what! “You always see everyone you’ve ever known, ” Jodi Fodor, a resident assistant in Won­ ders Hall, said. “If you don’t mind the sauna-like atmosphere, the dancing is fantastic.? And with ; Player’s Club offering 10-cent glasses and 40- cent pitchers of beer, why go any place else? How would you like to go dancing with half of Michigan State University? Tf you’ve ever been to the Outer Limits on a Thursday night, you’ve probably done that. Quart night is one of the most favorite Outer Limits attractions. Thank God It’s Friday!!! Isn’t that what life’s all about? Working hard all week just for the weekend? With all the great T.G. specials, i is worth the wait. Well, now that it’s finally he e, why limit yourself to one place? How abou a ; 2-for-l at Bilbo’s, or Dooley’s? Or what ab/ jt “Dollar Day” at Rick’s American Cafe ($1. ¡0 pitchers, $1.00 drinks, $1.00 cover charge)? )r what about free pizza and snacks at the Ot zx Limits? Or $2.00 specialty drinks at Olga’s Be ;k Porch? Saturday night is not always the best night :o hit the bars of East Lansing. House and ap< t- ment parties are usually the order of the evenit ]. On Sunday, after a long hard week of class- s, studying and going out every night, you’re rea iy to take advantage of the area dining bargaii s. Why not try all-you-can-eat spaghetti at the Ri i- era Cafe or Spat’z Place? What about that d. cious Dooley’s Pizza for half price? All you have to do is look and experime it and you can find dozens of great places w- h great specials. And then on Monday, you c n —Elizabeth L. Broi n start all over again. RICK S, OLGA’S, P.T. O’Malley’s, Bunches, or Bilbo’s-«-no matter where students go to drinlc they have a fantastic time due to the cozy at­ mospheres and great specials. 186 Local Bar Scene NOVAK, Thomas 8., Saginaw; B.A. Accounting NYQUIST, James E., Perry B.A Accounting OCHMAN, Patricia A., Canta'nABA.

At that time the nu­ clear weapons freeze proposal was on the ballot in Michigan, so a group of people from the Uni­ versity community gathered to work for its pass ■ age. In the fall of 1983. SAFE changed its name to Students Acting for the Future of the Earth a hie h reflects the broadening mnge of SAFF's interests. Still working for the nuclear freeze, SAFE now encompasses disarmament, peace and justice concerns, realizing the two must work hand in hand.

Their operation reflects the ideals >f nonviolence and democracy, using consensus ather than majority rule. Everyone must accept proposal before it will be adopted. This process îsures respect for all persons' views, rather than lividing the group into winners and losers. Also, k* facilitating responsibility is rotated among le participants for the bi-monthly meetings. The iperational style of the group is a sort of model if how societies could relate, on a local or inter­ actional level. 'When we do move, we're all >gether. Everyone is considered a valuable lember.” said Paul Tinkerhess. The group believes it is worthwhile to start mall and be as caring and consistent as possible, hile maintaining a peaceful, nonviolent posi- >n "Making peace in a peaceful way” is a îaracteristic slogan of the members. Since the art of SAFE, the members have been very :tive in educating the public and inspiring ac~ ‘ >n in the community. Their most well known :tivities are the monthly peace vigils on the arm Lane Bridge held on the first working day the month at noon, when the University's ril defense sirens are tested. These vigils have :en constant since the group’s beginning. At e March 1 vigil, a report by astronomer Carl igan was read. Sagan recently concluded that ■tonation of even a small percentage of the orld’s nuclear arsenals would cause catas- ophic destruction of the Earth’s atmosphere nich would render the entire planet virtually unhabitable. At the vigil, the participants also leased red balloons, as in the song 99 Red rlloons” by Nena. The song reflects the con- cerns of young people in West Germany who do not want the United States to deploy new Cruise and Pershing II missiles in Europe. There is a very strong sentiment in West Ger­ many toward the arms race, which was partly . reflected in the fall when West German students on campus gave a presentation in Case Hall which was sponsored by SAFE. Through speak­ ers and the showing of a film, they gave the perspective of many West German citizens who are opposed to the arms race. SAFE's next major accomplishment was in peacefully protesting the work done at the Wil­ liams International plant in Walled Lake. Wil­ liams is the producer of the majority of the en­ gines for the Cruise missiles. On the weekend of November 25 members of the group walked from the MSU Union to the Williams plant in Walled Lake. 65 miles, staying overnight in Webberville and Brighton. This supplemented the week long "Covenant for Peace” protest at the plant. Along the way, the walkers received a lot of press coverage, while having the oppor­ tunity to educate people outside of the MSU/ East Lansing area. In February, when Williams International was interviewing on campus. SAFE held a peaceful protest outside of the Student Services Building to remind students of the mor­ ality involved in working for a weapons man­ ufacturer. this also brought to people's attention the fact that nuclear weapons components are being produced practically in "their own back- Last year. SAFE hosted a series of education­ ally oriented peace talks which included presen- tations and speakers from different peace and justice groups. This year, members travelled to Ann Arbor in support of University of Michigan students who were protesting the University's military involvement. When “The Day After” was shown on television, SAFE also organized about 10 groups around campus for discussion following the film. Earlier in the year, they par­ ticipated in the U.N. Day parade and held a midnight vigil at Beaumont Tower the night be- SAFE’s global interests extend beyond those of the arms race. They are helping the Nicara­ guan economy by importing coffee horn Nicaragua via Holland, even through there is a United States embargo against Nicaraguan products. The idea conveyed here is to “think globally nc i locally Within the base group, a few committees have been formed. One such committee was estab­ lished to research military contracts at MSU. Publius, another committee, writes letters to the editor and viewpoint sections of newspapers on various peace and justice issues. Another com­ mittee is involved with the Campbell's products boycott, which was initiated as a result of unfair labor practices on the part of the company. The ultimate goal of SAFE is to move away from the path of war and toward the path of peace. Educating the MSU community and in­ spiring local action against the arms race are steps toward this goal. Whether or not their ac­ complishments are measurable as such, their satisfaction stems from being able to act for the future of the earth. —Michele Ferenchick f iMBERS OF SAFE sing at a* rally in front of I aumont Tower, after which they marched to t Student Services Building to protest Wil- I ms International inerviewing on campus.

Seniors—Communication Arts/Sciences 199 « College of Education W 'ere doing exciting new things” said Dr. Cassan-! dra Book, assistant dean of the College of Education. The department of teacher education now provides al temative programmatic approaches to teacher certification which is an unusual development in teacher education. Said Dr. Book, “Our programs combine research and practice, and that basis makes our college very strong," In the past, teacher education con­ sisted of single standard programs for elementary and secondary level education students. Now, in addi­ tion to the standard programs, ele­ mentary education students can choose from four new programs, and secondary education students can choose from two. Besides preparing students to teach subject matter, each program addresses a specific function of school, including fostering academic learning, teaching in the heteroge­ neous classrooms and promoting personal and social responsibility among students. The programs are also unique n that they offer varying opportu i- ties for education students to week closely with faculty, classroom teachers, and a variety of students. These education students proceed through each program as membe rs of a group. Says Dr. Book, “We’re most i- terested in preparing quality teac v ers through quality programs and we think we have made great strid es toward this goal. ” —Dave Biddk ABRAMSON, Carol C., Lar is.ng BA Unrrentary ARNO.

Matenais Engineering Sciern e Engineering Science Engineering i ngirieenug bngmeerng Engineering Engineering Engineering Science Seniors—Engineering 205 Shivers in September.; Tans in February Turbulent is the best word to describe East Lansing's wacky winter weather, which left MSU students wondering w'hat to wear each morning to survive the abrupt temperature fluctuations. An unusually cold December scored record low temperatures throughout Michigan. January skiiers probably didn't get to hit the slopes as often as they liked to. with frequent sub zero windchill factors. Paradoxically. February brought a record high of 60 degrees, which students took’full advan tage of. Frisbees and laying out for a tan in shorts occupied the day's agenda as classes and homework were conveniently forgotten. Those who did attend classes w'ere well equipped for the w'alk with sunglasses and pocket stereos. Unfortunately, the sun's rays were iced over by an ill-timed cold front and March was another month boasting sub-zero windchill factors. De­ spite the cold weather, classes were never can­ celled. but there was an increase in the number of University buses serving the campus. —Michele Glance THE TREES in the MSU gardens had to carry an extra heavy load of snow this year, and when the wind blew, sometimes dropped globs of snow on unsuspecting passersby. WINTER’S ICY JAW, in the form of these ici­ cles, clamped down hard on East Lansing, and didn’t let go until March. FOR SOME STUDENTS, snow and Ice were nothing more than a hindrance, but a few snow bunnies managed to enjoy the winter month. 206 Winter Weather GOLDSCHMIDT.

Interior design changed with e: tensive study in interior design dt tailing, design philosophy, desig technology and human me.asun ment for interior designing. Its thre areas of emphasis are merchandi ing. human shelter and graph communication. Norma Bobbitt, associate dea of the college, explained how th changes within the departmei came about. "This just happened to be th area (human environment and de sign) w'ith the big package change she said. "Curriculum change have occurred the past few yea within the other two departments. ’ College of Human Ecology ■ uman Ecology stu dents learn how hu mans can best interact with each other and their environment in order to maximize the quality of in dividual, family and community life. They learn the most effective w’ays to use the man-made envi­ ronment - such as food, clothing and shelter; and the natural envi­ ronment—the world's raw mate- sees a bright job climate for 1984 Human Ecology graduates. “In most instances.” she said, "we see it as a better job market because government and industry have picked up.” She added that students have an even greater chance of securing a job if they try the market outside Michigan. The college’s most significant change was an updated curriculum within the department of human environment and design. Two un­ dergraduate majors, clothing and textiles, and interior design, were modified. The changes in clothing and tex­ tiles will go into effect next year. An effort was made to make students more knowledgeable in the analysis and evaluation of textile product performance, including apparel, in­ ternal furnishings and industrial products. Three areas of emphasis There are many career oppor­ tunities for Human Ecology stu­ dents. Some may work as kinder­ garten or elementary teachers, fam­ ily case workers, consumer protec­ tion advocates, clinical dietitians, quality control technicians, clothing designers, housing inspectors or store operations managers In fact, the list of possible career choices seems endless.

"and we have 15 to 25 students for the first year. 1 She added that students can earn a minimum of eight credits under the program. But Steidle said that students taking an internship with it could earn a total of 23 credits in 13 weeks. The dean spoke highly of three James Madison students. Two of those students, Ronald Tenpas and Denise Dorigo, were named Homecoming King and I1 1 Queen respectively. 1 Tenpas. a junior, was the exe> i tive director of the Associated S J§ dents of MSU.

" ■he College < if Natuial Sci ence produces students expert hi the hard sci ences. Students in 23 de­ partments. from biochem­ istry to zoology, grow in mathemat­ ical and scientific knowledge. The hope is that their knowledge can make our world a better, safer and more understandable place to live. Byeirum sn:d next year the col lege plan*« !o change some of its curriculum. "We're changing our medical technology curriculum." lie said “We'll have an internship required as part of the program to receive a bachelor's degree So they |stu dent'd will actually work m a hospi tal for a time." Two years ago. the college’s en­ rollment increased 40 percent be cause the Lyman Briggs School and the Medical Technology Pro­ gram were added Hu hard Ryer rum. the dean since 1962, said the upward trend in enrollment is con­ tinuing. ‘ This last fall our enrollment was up a few percent, as opposed to the year before, when the Univer­ sity was dropping some and we were holding steady." he said. “So fai a: least, we have been able r<> accommodate all the undergradu­ ates who want to take courses here Looking baca on the 19S’i 4 school yeas there vveie si >me -»lgnif icant high points. Construction of the $10 million Kellogg Center located at the Kel­ logg Biological Station neat Battle Creek was completed during the year. The center contains dor mitones fot students an academic building, and a ie.-.earch teaching facility. A Presidential Study Grant in plant in molecular biology was awarded during the year to the botany and plant pathology depart I I I i I à ment, arid the Plant Research Lai /j oratory. According to Byerrun. only about 30 such grants ar awarded annually in the country. ■ In the Spring of 1983, Charle: Arntzen, director of the Plant Re search Laboratory, was elected to ! the National Academy of Science Calling the election “a prestigious recognition”, Byerrum said Arntzen is only the second MSU academy member in history. Six of 10 MSU Alumni Distin guished Scholarship winners plar to major in the College of Natura Science next year. The awards arc given to incoming freshmen whe excel in academic competition.

At MSU this year, you just weren't cool unless you had a $45 pair of sunglasses hanging from a brightly colored cord around your neck. The glasses were worn everywhere: outside, in the bar, to parties, and even in the shower, for those trendies who just couldn’t take them off. Seniors Nursing 221 College of Social Science ■he College of Social Sci­ ence, like other MSU col­ leges. includes students from many different fields. Departments within the college include psychology, politi­ cal science, anthropology, geog raphy and sociology. In addition, criminal justice, social work, and urban planning and landscape ar chitecture form the three profes­ sional schools. Finally, a multidis ciplinary program completes the picture. All these fields are drawn together by a common goal—try­ ing to learn and explain human be­ havior and interactions through sci­ entific methods. ing popularity in the social science residence program, a shared resi­ dence opportunity offered to fresh­ men and sophomores that is meant to form a mini-community of social science majors. Students share liv - ing quarters and class curriculum. They also benefit from computer instruction, career advising, even­ ing programs and simply sharing in­ terests and knowledge with each other. “It’s been really rolling this year." she said. ”lt may be the biggest thing this year. Again this year, the School of Criminal Justice received a police foot patrol grant from the Charles S. Mott Foundation in Flint. The grant, which actually began in June 1982. continues through 1987 and totals $1 million. The grant has four uses, accord­ ing to Robert Trojanowicz. school director. The first aspect is to try to organize information on establish­ ing the implementing foot patrol programs. Secondly, two training programs are offered annually at MSU’s Kellogg Center for police departments worldwide, with on­ site training facilities used in Fir | Another goal is to provide techr j-i logical assistance and training : f police departments to actually - it! up foot patrols.

VIOVODE, Mary K., Livonia; B.A. Employment Psychology Relations They Didn’t Wear the Pants but They Made History “History tends to be told from the male view­ point,” MSU Professor Gladys Beckwith stated emphatically. “While women’s contributions to history are different than men’s they are no less important.” Recognition of Michigan women’s contribu­ tions to society is the goal of the Michigan Women’s Studies Association, Inc., of which Beckwith is an active member. The statewide organization, which promotes the study of women, took great step toward the realization of its goal in the formation of the Women’s Hall of Fame and related historical center, which is It will be the first major collection of material about Michigan women’s contributions to history. scheduled to open sometime in 1984. The Hall of Fame is a piece of history in itself. It will be the first major collection of material about Michigan women’s contributions to his­ tory. The Michigan Women’s Studies Associa­ tion has been actively fundraising for the project and will use the proceeds to restore the Cooley- Haze Mansion which will house the collection. The Cooley-Haze Mansion was the home of Dr. Harry Haze, who served as both mayor and member of the Michigan Legislature in Lansing, and was the official residence of Governor and Mrs. G. Mennen Williams during the governor’s first term in office. It is located at 213 W. Main St., Lansing, just a few blocks south of the Capitol. This is an ideal location because both out-of-state visitors and students touring the Capitol will be able to view the exhibits. The center will consist ot two main elements: the gallery of thematic portraits of Michigan women who have contributed to Michigan his­ tory, and a number of displays of memorabilia, photographs and documents reflecting the dis­ covery of women’s history. Incorporated into this will be the Michigan Women’s Hall of Fame. Tjhe mansion will also have meeting space avail­ able for other women’s groups and serve as a resource for research and publication of mate­ rials dealing with women’s history. This is a val­ uable resource for as Beckwith states, “There is so little material on women available. ” The nominees for the the Hall of Fame were selected from 160 nominations by the public. Committees for both the contemporary and his­ toric nominations were formed and they selected the final members. Candidates must have been born, lived part of their lives in, or in some way be connected with Michigan and have made a significant contribution to society either by excel­ ling in their professions or by serving as role models. Similar projects are underway throughout the nation. Although the idea of a hall honoring women from our state is a new one and their organization is only comprised of about 200 members, the Michigan Women’s Association has received great support for their project. —Michele Glance H Ä m k m .

BA Cnmnial One Woman’s Story Apossible nominee for the position of vice president on the Democratic ticket, according to the January 24, 1984 Detroit News, Martha Griffiths has achieved recognition as lieutenant governor of Michigan in a fiercely competitive and male-dominated field. An outspoken advocate of women’s rights, specifically the Equal Rights Amendment, Griffiths was nominated to the Michigan Women’s Hall of Fame. Griffiths made Michigan history when she became the first congresswoman for this state. “My husband insisted that I go to law school,” Griffiths commented, when asked what motivated her to seek a political career. “He was in law school,” she continued, “and he thought I would enjoy it. He backed me up all the way.” Griffiths and her husband were formerly law partners with G. Mennen Williams, former governor and current Supreme Court Justice. Throughout her career, Griffiths has fought for women’s rights and believes it’s easier for a woman to obtain office now than it was 10 years ago. “The way the state constitution is written, the lieutenant gover­ nor is repeatedly referred to as ‘he’, ‘him’, etc. There was never any thought given to the fact that it would be conceivable for a woman to hold the office. “My biggest obstacle in obtaining office was the same as a man’s: obtaining recogni­ tion” she commented. The ERA is an amendment Griffiths has repeatedly endorsed. She believes much of the opposition to the bill comes from, “commercial interests which do not publicly criticize the bill, such as insurance companies and AT&T; any company that employs a large number of women and crosses state lines. ” Her persistent belief in this cause can be seen in the promise she made to a small group of feminists: “Before I die we’re going to put that [referring to the ERA] into the Constitution.” When Gov. Blanchard was asked why he appointed Griffiths, he simply replied “Be­ cause she was the best qualified for the job. ” Griffiths thinks her chances of going on to become a vice presidential candidate are remote, but she exclaimed enthusiastically, “I’d love to do it!” ^EMichele Glance THE COOLEY-HAZE MANSION, the new home of the Hall of Fame, will soon be open to the public and will feature exhibits on Michigan women who were movers and shakers, like Martha Griffiths. Death and Resurrection of a Yearbook Production editors strove to give the Red Cedar Log a complete makeover, while the financial end plunged into the red This is the story of the yearbook that died, came back into existence, and struggled all year to overcome its shameful reputation and earn some respect. The 1984 Red Cedar Log was the book with­ out a general manager, editor-in-chief, or faculty advisor. The book, funded by ASMSU, was put together by a handful of experienced, dedicated, and somewhat masochistic students who were willing to sacrifice their GPA’s and their weekends to bring you—the students, faculty, staff and alumni of MSU—a better yearbook to capture the essence of MSU in 1983-84. When the University decided to stop support­ ing the yearbook in 1980, ASMSU agreed to provide support for three years. In the summer of ’83, ASMSU voted to cut its ties with the book due to three years of chaos, personnel conflicts, mismanagement and losses totaling over $35,000. However, incoming 1984 Editor Tom Sussi petitioned the board to reconsider funding the book, after efforts to find another sponsor failed. Sussi proposed to ASMSU that he could sell 2,500 ’84 books and turn a $16,000 profit, most of which was to come from the elimination of the $12,000 general manager position. With re­ luctance, the Board approved his $74,000 budget at the end of September. But the Red Cedar Log’s problems were not over. The chaos, staff conflicts, mismanagement! and financial backsliding ballooned. Promotions and sales never got off the ground until Christmas, after a change of staff in the promotions department. About 30,000 mailers were sent to the parents of MSU students, urging them to order books for their Spartans. Due to delays in preparing the fliers for mailing, they had to be sent first class instead of bulk rate to insure that the Christmas mailers would indeed arrive by Christmas. Sales Manager Laurie Dama spent most of the year dealing with the leftover horrors of the 198241983 RCL, which was promised an Au­ gust delivery and wasn’t released from the print­ ing plant until November, due to missed dead­ lines on the part of the 1983 RCL staff. The phone rang constantly and disappointed callers demanded, “Where’s my 1983 yearbook?” Later in the year, Dama and Promotions Man­ ager LaureenTopham produced several direct mail pieces, posters, and an advertising cam­ paign to help increase the RCL’s failing sales. Their work included setting up tables in the Union and Student Services Buildings to provide an easy way for people to order the 1984 Red Cedar Log. . . we constantly had to prove ourselves to everybody else. And that’s hard to do when the finished product doesn’t come out until August.” —Jamie DePolo Another program to involve more students in the yearbook is the senior pictures operation, run this year by Kim Ruiter. Each graduating senior was provided with the opportunity for a free yearbook portrait sitting, with the option of buying a senior picture packet from the profes­ sional studio (Delma) later in the year. The percentage of seniors who had their pic­ tures taken for this yearbook was at an all-time low. Although yearbook portraits are free, only about one-third of the seniors bothered to schedule appointments. Besides sales and senior pictures, the RCL’s other main source of income is the selling of yearbook space to registered student organiza­ tions for half or full pages. Although this was once limited to clubs and Greek organizations, this year’s Organizations Editor, Cindy Simpson, expanded the target market to include camj us residence hall groups. While no dorm floors p i| S chased space this year, the program is plann id for future editions. “It was hectic and depressing sometimes, hut j I after things picked up in March, the work v.as j | a lot more fun, said Simpson. In mid-April, the ASMSU board fired Sussi j i because under his direction, the RCL staff had j ! fallen into a $23,000 deficit, had missed all its i ! deadlines, and was reeking with staff confl ct. j At the time of Sussi’s firing, the three producti on ] ! editors had been able to complete only 16 of I the 240 pages in the book. So, they had 10 j j weeks to pull together the other 93 percent of I j the book. But putting together a yearbook is easy stuff, i right? You just take some pictures, write some j copy, and get a hold of some rubber cement, j right? Wrong. This is a common misconception 1 [t ? among those who have only seen what goes on in the front room of a yearbook office. The three production editors spent hour after hour scheduling photos, editing copy, labeling j copy for typesetting, ordering and keeping track j of corrections, cropping photos, and redesigning j layouts because Rhonda’s vertical dominant j selection couldn’t go in Kathy’s horizontal layout j space and Jamie’s copy wouldn’t fit unless \ Rhonda’s photo was chopped three picas j shorter and Kathy’s layout was altered again to make Jamie’s captions fit. And not only that, there were reporters who I were late with stories, as well as reporters who j finked out completely, photographers who J didn’t show up to take pictures, darkroom tech- j nicians who didn’t show up to print the pictures, j and data processing programs that produced j the wrong data. Folks, you had to be there. Kathy McCauley, layout/design editor, said j that in order to keep production in any state of j progress at all while maintaining the production j editors’ standards of quality, “The three of us j had to work behind everyone’s back. We had j continued j l RCL Yearbook Staff THE TIME INVOLVED in designing a year­ book is three-fourths planning and making specifications, one- fourth actual pasting- up at the light table.
