LYMAN COLLINSNews Editor

Davidson College overdrewits budget in the 1977 fiscalyear in two main areas: athle-tics and instructional budgets.Athletic overruns totaled$110,000 and the overruns inthe instructional area totaled$77,000.

College President Samuel R.Spencer Jr. explained: "Al-most every budget overruns,but the important thing is thatyou balance overruns in someareas with underruns in oth-ers."

He indicated further thatthe exceptionally large over-runs were not totally unex-pected, and the faculty hadbeen informed of them lastyear.

Spencer places partial blameof the large overruns in the

pinpoint where the overruns inthe Instructional budget oc-curred.

He explains the Athleticbudget overruns for big-timebasketball because it will pos-sibly be a money-making pro-position. "The trustees havedirected us to put our moneyin the front end and seewhether it will pay off."

Despite the overruns, theAthletics budget makes uponly nine percent of the Col-lege's total operating budget.

Spencer declined to specu-

Athletic area on an unrealis-tically low budget.

"We were directed by thetrustees to put big-time bas-ketball back on the track. TheBudget allocated was not re-alistic for what the trusteesasked for."

"We went way over on ourrecruiting budgets in footballand basketball," he added.

To remedy this problemSpencer said that the 1977-78Athletic budget has been in-creased.

Spencer says it is difficult to

late on what percentage bas-ketball drew from total Athle-tic budget which was1671,781.03 but he admitted itwas substantial.

"This figure includes manythings," Spencer explained:"all the coach's salaries, secre-tarial help, publicity, recruit-ing, equiptment, etc...So youcan see it is a pretty bigoperation down there."

Income received from theWildcat Club, which is inde-pendent of the College, is notincluded in the school's ath-letic budget. Most of thismoney goes to suppliment themonies awarded to footballplayers on the basis of need.But all sports at Davidsonreceive some funding from theclub.

In the past Davidson gave52 full football scholarships.When this number was cut,the Wildcat Club decided tohelp those players who de-monstrate a need.

"We are never going tomake any money on football,"Spencer commented, "but Ilike our football as it is: lowpressure, a pleasant Saturdayafternoon for friends, alumni,and students."

Spencer detailed the bene-fits big-time basketballbrought to the college. Hepointed out that during theheight of Davidson's basket-ball success the team broughtin enough money to pay foritself.

But he added, " I t is morethan just money. The Trustees

Gift income defrays education costsBy GEORGE MURDAUGH

Staff Writer

While the total cost of aDavidson education in 1976-77per student was $6,500, thecomprehensive fee to studentsand parents was $4,390.

Where does the remaining$1,942 per student (almost 30percent of the total cost) comefrom?

This difference is make upby annual gifts from alumni,parents, friends, corporations,and foundations, as well asendowment and trust income.

Soliciting gifts and othertypes of income "is a very

integral part of any privatecollege's activity," notes Vice-President for DevelopmentDuane A. Dittman.

"Fortunately for Davidsonthis process is not a questionof survival as it is for someother colleges."

Raising funds is a co-ordi-nated effort directed at alum-ni, parents, and friends. Thereare approximately 11,500 liv-ing Davidson alumni.

The College has severalhundred "friends" on its mail-ing list.

Dittman estimates thatroughly 40 percent of alumni,parents, and friends give mon-

ey gifts to the College.In fiscal year 1977 the total

gift income was $1,600,585.Alumni giving ($527,531) wasthe largest source of thisincome, comprising nearly 33percent of the total.

Bequests accounted for 20percent of total giving whilecorporations gave giftsamounting to 13 percent of thetotal.

Churches gave $128,732 or 8percent of the total gift in-come.

Other sources were parents.friends, foundations, and theDuke Endowment.

Funds from these and other

sources defer educational costsand make a Davidson educa-tion possible for many stu-dents whose families could notafford it otherwise/ Mostschools with which Davidsoncompetes academically cannotoffer their students a compa-rable financial bargain.

Continued generous givingand income from the endow-ment also means that David-son does not have to borrowmoney (and therefore payinterest).

Council settles social policy

[Hunter Jennings]

By SHERIGRAVETTStaff Writer

This proposal will now besent to College President Sam-uel R. Spencer J r . for hisapproval.

Experiential programs offerexpansion in education

By EMILY PARTINStaff Writer

Director of ExperientialPrograms and Life/WorkPlanning Ken Woodsdescribes the role of his officeas one of helping "studentsfind off-campus experiencesthat still contribute to theirpersonal growth and develop-ment."

This program can providestudents with the opportunityto gain exposure to othercultures, reflect on personalinterests, values, and goals,investigate career possibil-ities, and to discover and testskills.

"My job," says Wood, "isto help students clarify whattheir interests are, and then tohelp them find the experiencethat fits."

He stresses that "studentsneed to begin from within tofind out where their enthu-siasm and energy is focused."

Once this focus has beenconsidered, the student is freeto work with the office todevelop a plan specificallyadapted to his individualneeds.

One of the opportunitiesavailable to students is parti-cipation in a career serviceprogram. A student chooses acareer option that interestshim and designs a programwhich will enable him to gainsome experience working inthat area.

These internships can lastfrom one term to an entireyear. During this time thestudent is registered as a

career service student and isguaranteed a place at David-son when he returns. It ispossible to receive academiccredit for such work experien-ces.

This year there are sixDavidson students serving in-ternships as teachers in Ken-ya-

It is also possible to partici-pate in part-time internshipsin Charlotte. In this case astudent would remain at Da-vidson and take two or threecourses in addition to workingin a county government de-partment, law office, coun-seling service, or any enter-prise he chooses.

An extern program has beendesigned to allow students toexplore career interests on ashort term basis. For up to oneweek students are exposed to aparticular vocation or settingto observe and learn moreabout that particular career.

According to Wood, manyDavidson students have esta-blished valuable contactswhile participating in pro-grams of this sort and havereceived job offers as a result.

To become involved in anextern program, a studentchooses his job and locationpreferences. Wood then makesthe necessary contacts whithalumni and other friends of thecollege who are connected withthe student's occupationalchoice, and sets up the extern-ship.

These extemships usuallytake place during Spring

Break, although they can beset up for any time a studentfeels he can spare a week.

The Office is currentlyworking on a program thatwould be connected with theOutward Bound school. De-signed as a summer programfor rising sophomores andjuniors, this would involve,according to Wood, nine daysto two weeks of intensiveoutdoor pursuit dealing withthe question of 'What now?'."

Several times during theyear Wood takes a group ofstudents to the AppalachianMountains to observe and talkwith the people in the medicalfield who approach their workwith a humanistic outlookand a genuine concern forpeople.

Every term a centering-Venturing workshop is offeredto sophomores, juniors, andseniors. The purpose of thisprogram is to help each stu-dent match his particularstrengths, abilities, lifestyle,self-attitude, and values withhis concept of the types ofpeople he'd like to work with,the environment he'd prefer tolive in, and the world problemshe feels need attention.

Having arrived at somebasic decisions, the studentthen considers the ways inwhich he could go aboutachieving his goals.

A Centering-Venturingworkbook consisting of ques-tions, exercises, and informa-tion is used in the workshop.This fall the. second edition isbeing printed and is availablefree for all those participatingin the workshop. Other stu-dents may purchase it for$1.00.

Wood emphasizes that notall stSidents have to decideimmediately what they wantto do for the rest of theirlives, but rather should "thinkin terms of what they want totry."

Anyone who is interested intrying any of these programsor would like to know moreabout other ways he can turnhis ideas into experiencesshould contact Ken Wood orSuzie Summers in the Office ofExperiential Programs andLife/Work Planning in theUnion Basement.

According to the proposal"social campus-wide even I sshould he scheduled to providea balance of cultural, educa-tional and social events

Campus-wide events weredefined as events: "a) to whichall stujjpnts are invited and asubstantial number are expec-ted to attend and. b) whichrequire a significant portion oftime."

Spencer indicated his op-position to subsidizing othercollege sports. He gave three

reasons."First I think it is the kind

of thing there is no stopping.This is what happened withfootball. We did not start outwith 52 grants, just a few."

"Second, I do not think it isa necessary expenditure. Wewould not get enough for ourmoney.''

"That's a unique strongpoint we have here," pro-claimed Dittman. "There isnot a penny of debt."

"In the first fifteen months(beginning July '76) more that$4.5 million has been given orcommitted," he added.

Davidson initiates Blackachievement scholarship

H> LYMAN COLLINSNews Editor

Beginning with the1 Class of1983 Davidson College willsponsor National Achieve-ment Scholarships accordingto Dean of Admissions andFinancial Aid H. PCdmundsWhite.

The National AchievementScholarship Program, admin-istered by the National MeritScholarship Corporation(NMSC), "exists specificallyto identify promising blackstudents and to encouragethem to pursue higher educa-.tion," according to a letterfrom the NMSC to CollegePresident Samuel R. SpencerJr.

Zimmermann, Committeeexplore course evaluations

By EMILY PARTINStaff Writer

Vice-President of AcademicAffairs Price Zimmermann,the Professional Affairs Com-mittee (PAC), and the SGAare working to develop newsystems of student evaluationof faculty and courses atDavidson.

There are two basic pur-poses behind course evalua-tion. One is to allow forstudent input into the admini-stration's assessment of facul-ty, involving, for example,promotion of faculty membersand granting of tenure.

Zimmermann is in charge ofdeveloping a system thatwould deal with this aspect.His goal is to elicit studentperception of faculty perfor-mance. According to Dr. Zim-mermann, the information ga-thered would be used primari-ly by College President Sam-uel R. Spencer Jr. and himselfand would be kept confiden-tial.

Zimmermann is currentlystudying evaluation forms be-ing used by other colleges. Hewill be working closely withthe PAC to provide for faculty

input concerning the issue.The second purpose of eval-

uation is to provide studentswith information concerningfaculty and courses to aid incourse selection. The CourseEvaluation committee of theSGA is dealing with thisaspect.

The committee, comprisedof students Dave Tink le r /Charlie Strange and RalphYeilding, is working on asystem that will be, accordingto Yeilding, "student run andused."

According to Yeilding, someprofessors view wide distri-bution of this information as"having their grades postedon the doors of Chambers."

Another criticism in thepast has been that theseevaluations have not beenrepresentative--last year onlyabout 25 per cent of the formshanded out to students werecompleted and returned -andtherefore the results are nei-ther fair nor accurate.

In response to-these criti-cisms, the SGA committee isattempting to regularize theevaluation process, perhapsby asking professors to distri-

bute the forms in their classes,to insure that every student isgiven one.

Both Zimmermann and theSGA committee have yet towork out all the details andprocedures. They both, how-ever, hope to have everythingworked out this winter.

White explained, that theprogram has three subdivi-sions.

The first subdivision awards-students a one year nonrenew-able grant of 1,000 dollarsThese grants are financed bybusinesses and industries.

The second subdivision isfunded by corporate founda-tions, foundations and otherbusiness organizations. Thesegrants are reviewable andrange in amount from 250dollars to 1500 dollars.

The third area is funded bycolleges and universities. Col-leges receive a number ofnames of scholarship finalistswho have listed that college astheir first choice. The Collegethen chooses its recipientsfrom this pool.

The new program that Da-vidson is now initiating fallinto the third subdivision.

White explained that Dav-idson has always had a num-ber of National AchievementScholarship recipients whohave come here with scholar-ships from the first two subdi-visions .

According to the letter sentto Spencer the high number offinalists who have chosen Da-vidson in the past sparked the

invitation to expand the pro-gram.

"A total of about 85 collegesand universities continual! vattract black students whoqualify as Achievement Pro-gram finalists, and we there-fore invite them to sponsorAchievement Scholarships in1978," according to the letter.

White indicated that he was"pleasantly surprised" * tolearn that Davidson ranked inthe top 85 colleges who attractfinalists.

He explained that under theterms of the program thecollege is committed to grant-ing at least one such scholar-ship each year, but the collegeis not limited to that number.

There will be a minimumstipend of 250 dollars and amaximum of 1500 dollars, butWhite indicated that that sumcould be supplemented byregular scholarships and fi-nancial aid.

The program will be finan-ced through the general scho-larship budget. He added thatit probably will not greatly al-ter the amount of scholarshipaid presently awarded.

"We are going to use it as arecruiting tool to encouragemore able black students tochose Davidson," he said.

Take Wooden'smessage to heart

Ken Wooden'9 message was horrible. For most of us whowere unaware of the problem of child abuse, his messagesnapped us out of our small worries over grades and partiesand gave us a new perspective about our world.

What is just as despicable as the child abuse problem itself(s the inexcusable inaction of Congress, the FBI, and PostalService.

I know it's been said about a hundred issues but: we urgeyou to write your Congressman. It's been said so many timesthe plea has become a cliche. But most cliches are founded intruth.

If every member of the Davidson College community were towrite his Congressman urging him to act on legislation to endthe child abuse, maybe our voices will be heard.

So many times we feel as though we as individuals arehelpless to affect change. We can view Wooden as a figure ofhope.

Despite all the horror Wooden's message brings, heexemplifies one man affecting change by making everyorganization he can reach aware of the horrible problem ofchild abuse.

Think about how much easier his job would be if we gotbehind him. I hope we all as individuals and as a communitywill be inspired enough to write.

Schedule reviews

with considerationCabaret is showing tonight. Tomorrow several Davidsonstudents have reviews. Many of those students will not be ableto see the play because they feel they must study.

There was no need for this situation to occur. Cabaret wasscheduled in July. If faculty members would look at the Unioncalendar before they planned each term, conflicts like thesecould be avoided. These Friday tests could have beenpostponed until Monday without too much difficulty.

Homecoming, Midwinters and Spring Frolics weekendsshould be treated with similar consideration. And Mondayreviews after these weekends should be moved to Tuesday.

We know Davidson Is not a party school. The main businesshere is education. But studying is not the only way to get aneducation. If studying were not balanced with cultural eventssuch as Cabaret or pleasurable releases such as the bigweekend parties, our education would be seriously lopsided.

Checking the Union calendar would not tax the facultymembers so much. Davidson is small enough to allow foralittle consideration.

Artwork meanings often fluctuateBv FRANK Bl.Ififi V ^By FRANK BLISSProfessor of English

People often ask me about therelationships between an artist's in-tentions and the work of art he or shemakes. I know the questions areimportant and that they are asked outof efforts to comprehend a situationthat seems mysterious. I think that itmay be most important to understandthat the work of art has a life of itsown which is independent of whateverintentions (conscious or other) itsauthor had. Moreover, whether or notyou or I pay any attention to works ofart, for as long as they exist they are apart of the reality in which we live.Let me give you two examples ofworks of art, a film and a novel, whichclearly have lives of their own.

A few weeks ago in Love Auditor-ium my wife and I saw Kind Heartsand Coronets (1949) again. Despiteour continuing admiration for the filmand expecially for the acting of AlecGuinness ("He is an all-star cast inhis own person," John Mason Brownwrote in Saturday Review), we foundthe film vaguely disturbing; wewanted to leave before it was over.The plot involves the murders com-mitted by Louis D'Ascoyne Mazzinias he coolly and systematically re-moves the several members of theD'Ascoyne family (all of whom areplayed by Alec Guinness) who standbetween him and the dukedom heseeks to inherit. As we discussed ourresponses to the 1949 comedy, mywife and I agreed that the reason torour dissatisfaction lay not only in ourbeing older but also in the film'simages of unfeeling killing.

The absence of compassion whichcharacterizes Louis Mazzini as hecalmly and single-mindedly pursueshis goal had seemed to us in the1950's humorous in its urbanity andimpudence. In a particularly memora-ble incident, for example, Louis aimsan arrow at a balloon bearing aloft oneof his doomed D'Ascoyne relativesand murmurs, "I shot an arrow in theair..." A couple of decades ago thiskind of thing seemed different (maybeafter World War II it should have,but it did) from what we expected todiscover happening in our world.Because we were in a good mood andwere watching a superb comic actordo a superb job, when we gotsomething different from what weexpected to get we responded bylaughing.

But now our world has changed,and the bold, rash terrorizing andmurdering of human beings hasbecome almost commonplace. Thinkof the continuing aremed conflict inIreland, of the murders in Munich in1971, of the recent skyjacking ofLufthansa Flight 181 after it took offfrom Mallorca think of what WestGermany is suffering. The changes inour world appear to me to account forKind Hearts and Coronets seeming asunfunny as it does in 1977. No oneconnected with the film, not even RoyHorhiman, the author of the novel onwhich it was based, or Robert Hamer,the director, could have foreseen mylater response to it; no one could haveintended that it affect me as it did.

Like any work of art, the film has alife of its own and has the power toheighten our awarenesses of ourworld. I believe that in this principal

•" H**ci^cL»*. .to crucial function byenabling as U» acc;:?t«Hiear, to feel, iounderstand, to perceive as we could

not without it. Because neither pro-perty nor life enjoys anything like thedegree of inviolability both seemed toenjoy a few years ago, a saucycomedy about an unabashed murdererseems lacking in humor.

A work of art that makes possibleimmensely more profound insightsinto the human condition, Miguel deCervantes Saavedra's Don Quixote(1605) is the first modern novel. I useit here because Cervantes had no moreidea of how people would respond tohis novel in the twentieth centurythan he had of what he had created.Don Quixote autonomous; regard-less of what we may know, orspeculate about Cervantes' satiric orironic or other itentions, the novel hashad and has a life of its own. In anessay entitled "Don Quixote or the

On the Edae

Critique of Reading" {The WilsonQuarterly, Autumn, 1977, pp., 186-202), Carlos Fuentes, formerly Amba-ssador of Mexico to France and anovelist of stature, suggests that DonQuixote reflects the past world andhelps to create the present world. Thereflected world is the old one of theMiddle Ages; the world that is being,created is ours. "In Don Quixote,"Sr. Fuentes writes, referring to theDon's love for love, a democraticDulcinea del Toboso, "the values ofthe age of chivalry acquire, throughlove, a democratic resonance; andand the values of the democratic lifeacquire the resonance of nobility."Dulcinea is a slut but a humanbeing; and Don Quixote's belief in hertransforms her into the most beautifullady in the world.

In spite of what "they" may haveyou believe, college is hardly theplace for a complete and orderlyreview of life, and if you truly wish todevelop a personal weltanschaungfree from external pressures, best renta house on the beach for the year,with access to: a good library; ametropolitan area; pure country; sub-urban sprawl; fifteen or so religiousinstitutions; your state capitol:Washington, D.C.; unlimited travelto any foreign country; friends fromall socio-economic backgrounds.

Failing that, be prepared to muddlealong feeling frustrated by all thatrushes by you: It is like living on horsd'ouevres and never being allowed tosavor the main course.

This was brought home last weekby a letter. Actually the envelope wasenough to accomplish the jolt.

So here you are, with a little realworld emotion in your hands, (actual-ly it's folded up and shoved deep intoa pocket until you decide what is to bedone with it) but you've a paper towrite, a test, and then another test.Plus the new nest.

Five hours later none of thosehoped-for events have occurred andtimidly, hesitantly, you ask for theletter. "Better to get it over with,"you explain, more to yourself than tothe person holding it for you.

Intramural values lostTo the Editor:

The overall aim of the IMACflickerball league at Davidson is toprovide friendly athletic competitionbetween all factions of the studentbody. Yet, because of flagrant viola-tions of common codes of sportman-ship and common dignity, somegames do not come close to achieveingthis goal. I t is acknowledged thatsome flickerball teams who are morefamiliar with the aspects of the gamewill be able to dominate lesserexperienced teams. However, thisdoes not give them the right toridicule those teams and to take allthe enjoyment away from the game.

Teams should respect the ability of• h o 'ather teams during the conrsp of agame no matter how Jopsided it may

be. Most teams during some part oftheir flickerball career started off as ainexperienced team, and had manyembarrassing losses. Using their pastexperiences of losses and possiblybeing ridiculed at the same timeshould make them remember how it isto be on the other side.

Plays such as having a seven manrush only to have the whole team fallto the ground in an attempt to futherembarrass the losing team has noplace in the Intramural program atDavidson. The teams whose philoso-phy is "obnoxious in victory, bitter indefeat" exemplifies the theme of thiseditorial.

humanity," Sr. Fuentes writes, is notbased on the lowest common deno-minator but on the highest achieve-ment possible ." As in the works ofJoseph Conrad and of Wallace Ste-vens, in Don Quixote fiction serves topreserve the truth.

This vision of the vital joining ofthe past and the present is enough todelight anyone involved in the liberalar t s . Jus t as passionately as DonQuixote believes in his truth, we mustbelieve in the world we are in theprocess of creating. Because ourworld seems to lack an up, or a down,or a middle; because "The best," asYeats writes in "The Second Com-ing," "lack all conviction, while theworst, are full of passionate inten-sity," these days passionately heldbeliefs are as likely to be destructiveas they are to be constructive of agood life. **

In the character of Don Quixote wemay perceive (as Cervantes could nothave done) the "great themes of thecenterless universe and of individual-ism tr iumphant, yet awed and or-phaned, (translated) to the plane ofliterature, where they become the axisof a new reality. There will be no moretragedy and no more epic, becausethere is no longer a restorableancestral order or a universe univocalin its normativeness" (Fuentes). Inour world we experience everything inrelation to ourselves as observersbound to participate (as Don Quixoteparticipates; he even visits a printing,shop) in everything we observe.Because Don Quixote the readercomes to know he is read (as we theobservers of our world have come toknow we are participants), his iden-tity is located in the fact of his havingto create his own reality. No epichero, Don Quixote the reader of epicsbecomes the figure who receives manydifferent readings. He is the modernhero, a verbal image of the modernhuman being in our world of manymeanings, only some of which arethat the world has one meaning, onecenter, and an ancestral order that wecan recover.

Only to some people does our worldseem a world in which tragedies andepics can be written. It would take abold person to argue that all of us seeour world has having only onemeaning or that all suffering is tragicsuffering. Different people see theworld in different ways and as havingdifferent meanings; and some see it ashaving no meaning at all.

Panama Canal's fate lies with usBy MARIELLEN SAWADA

Staff Writer

My belief in this country's concernfor others is affirmed when I hear theinternational issue of the Panama(anal being discussed by students onthe Davidson campus. It is interes-ting that the fate of this canal hasstimulated the ideas and the ideals ofthose who will inevitably help todesign Panama's future.

However, I am feeling that an over-whelming game of political strategy isshadowing the real issue of theself-determination of the people ofPanama. Politicans who should havethe knowledge of the Panamaniansituation are catering to our emotion-alism of sovereignty instead of speak-ing to the actual issue at hand.

Somehow, many Americans havebeen fooled into thinking that theCanal zone has been just peachy sincethe signing of the 1903 treaty which"gave the U.S. control over the zonefor the purpose of building, maintain-ing and defending a canal 'with rightsas if they were sovereign."

Somehow, we forget that the tenmile wide, fifty mile long canal

divides the small country of Panama,that the revenues of her geographicalresource do not return to her, and thata spirit of nationalism could springforth, causing her to rebel against hercolonial keeper.

Somehow we don't realize theamount of friction present betweenthe American community living inthe canal zone and the Panamanians.Their separateness is especially em-phasized in the 1964 incident lastingfive days and costing the lives of overtwenty people; all stemming from theraising of a lone American flag atBalboa High School.

Perhaps we do not realize thatPanamanians "provide 80 per cent ofthe personnel who operate the canal"but are "deliberately kept from thehighest positions."(report publishedby the 1976 General Assembly of theUnited Presbyterian Church, U.S.A.)

Two treaties

The two treaties in the spotlight donot suggest that the United Statessimply write off the Canal Zone as agiveaway and completely desert it.The first of the two treaties would

turn over control of the waterway bythe turn of the century. The secondtreaty, "would enable the U.S. toguarantee the Canal's neutrality,"meaning that the United States wouldsee that the locks are open to theworld's shipping.

Many people rightly fear the resultsof Panamanian control. I found mysolace in Time, Newsweek, U. S.News and World Report, Businessdithly, and papers written by majornational church denominations forthe following reasons:

1) Panama's ability to run theCanal: the transition period is pur-posely lengthy. In that period ofapproximately 23 years, the newcontroller's could be expertly trainedby the U.S. workers.

2) Military Security: there is ques-tion as to whether military security ispossible for the canal. I ts architecturemakes it quite vulnerable to "conven-tional sabotage" no matter who runsit. The canal is seen as a conveniencerather than a strategic area for thedefense and security of the U.S. sincewe now have a two ocean navy (whichincludes ships that have outgrown the

Opinion

Democrats vow to unseat HelmsBy CHUCK GADDY

Staff WriterOf the 33 Senatorial elections to be

conducted next year, the one at thispoint which promises to attract thegreatest national attention is oneanticipated right here in North Caroli-na, for the seat currently held byJesse Helms. This contest holdsparticular significance because it willdetermine whether Helms, an outspo-ken and unambiguous personalitywho produces either intense loyaltryor extreme dislike, will maintain afront position in national affairs.

Some of the preliminary action inthis struggle was brought to David-son last Wednesday with the visit ofMcNeill Smith, a major contender forthe Democratic nomination for theU.S. Senate. Smith's appearanceincluded a reception with the facultyand a meeting with the DavisonYoung Democrats Club, and, as far aspoliticians go these days, he seemed anoteworth success. Part of this wasdue to the fact that Smith, anaccomplished trial lawyer, spoke andinteracted impressively with the stu-dents and faculty. But a moreimportant reason is that the presentstate senator from Greensboro hasbeen a recognized leader in civil rightsand other social concerns in NorthCarolina and his unchallengable "li-beralness" seems to endear him tomany of the Democrat? on campus.

When Blacks conducted their firstsit-in demonstrations at a Wool-worth's lunch counter in Greensboroin 1960, Smith was One of the first totelegraph the company with a plea for"openness on an equal basis" and thesuggestion that nothing was solveduntil it was solved properly and fairly.He later helped work out an agree-ment which led to the dismantling ofsegregational barriers in Greensboro.Smith has appeared in many civilliberties cases in court and in themid-1960's he chaired the state chap-ter of the- U.S.Advisory C w s . ' ^ .

on Civil Rights.In the North Carolina General

Assembly, Smith's apparent capacityfor limitless work has earned him thename of the "Bionic Legislator." Inthe 1973-74 session, for example, hesponsored 155 bills, 57 of whichbecame law. His major jegislatingefforts have been in promoting taxreform, education, decreasing utilityrates, and energy development.

Competing with Smith for theDemocratic nomination are LutherHodges Jr., former President of theNorth Carolina National Bank inCharlotte and the son of a populargovernor; E. Lawrence Davis, a statesenator from Winston-Salem, DavidMcKnight, a Fayetteville newspaper-man, and Joe Felmet of Winston-Salem. Of this group, Hodges, Smithand Davis all display particularstrengths, but no clear front-runnerhas yet established himself. This isdemonstrated by the fact that manyparty regulars remain undecided.Further speculation revolves aroundthe possible candidacies of RufusKdmisten, state attorney general andJohn R. Ingman, the unconventionalstate commissioner of insurance. Ifso. either would likely win theprimary.

Luther Hodge, Jr., has been sec-ured for Nov. 30, 1977, to address theDavidson Democratic Club.

The popular opinion concerning theprospects for the general election atthis point tends to favor Helms. Theformer news commentator from Ra-leigh is undoubtedly a formidablecampaigner, but two potential im-pediments to his re-election need to beexamined: 1) How much of a dis-advantage is his Republican labeland 2) Has Helms' brand ot ultra-con-servatism disaffected a significantnumber of voters?

For a number of years the GOP hadbeen gradually gaining strength inNorth Carolina. Nixon's landslide in1972 represented the culmination of

^tljis trending and brought N.C.

Republicans a significant increase instate and national legislators, the

Governor's office, and victory toHelms, their candidate for the U.S.Senate. But then the downfall ofNixon, and the accompanying rise tonational eminence of Democrat SamErvin, proved disastrous to Repub-lican hopes in North Carolina. In 1973Democrats won all state elections bysubstantial margins, and then last fallJimmy Carter and Jim Hunt inflictedeven more damage to the state GOP,though Carter's regional appeal andthe ineffectiveness of incumbent Re-publican governor James E. Hols-houser also affected the outcome.

This implied Republican weaknessis further accentuated by the fact thata number of Republicans are againstHelms. As one conscientious Repub-lican on campus, Jimmy Peters,explained to me: "I would like to seeHelms defeated because he projectsan undesirable image for our party,even threatening its unity." Some ofthe traditional, "moderate" Repub-licans of the western and piedmontsection of the state would rather see aDemocrat elected than further domin-ation of the Party by Helmspeople.

Whether Helms has traveled too farto the right for North Carolinaprobably can't be adequately deter-mined until election day. In manyrespects, North Carolina must beconsidered conservative— Reagan'svictory here last year is indicative ofthis —although this is only reflectiveof those that voted in the Republicanprimary.

A defeat of Helms would be asignificant set-back for the ultra-con-servatives in this country and thefaction of the GOP demanding ideo-logical "purity". While a Helms'victory would be a crush particularlyfor unions, Blacks, and progressives.The national consequences of thiscontest, the large effort anticipatedfiom 'uui,tr%ides, and the intensepassions involved, promise an inter-esting campaign.

locks). The Panamanian governmenthas become aware of what the secondtreaty implies. General OmarHerrera, though a military dictator,said that the agreement puts thecanal "under the Pentagon's defenseumbrella."

',]) U.S. trade: Our trade has reliedon the canal less and less. In 1964,nine percent of our trade relied onthe canal. The 1977 figure is fourpercent. All of those practical mattersare outshined by the issue of humanrights. A few people seem to thinkonly of what or of how much theso-called "ownership" of the canalmeans to the United States... .andwhat its absence would mean to us.

Self-determination

It would be an astounding realiza-tion to see the Panamanians as actualpeople with real hopes and dreams...and aspirations. The sense of nationa-lity that we find so important is hardto come by when outsiders arerunning such an important part of acountry.

The fact is, the United States has"never really had a clear conscienceabout the 1903 treaty." The Secretaryof State at the time of the treaty saidthat it was, "vastly advantageous tothe United States, and, we mustconfess, not so advantageous toPanama."-Translated to 1977 lan-guage, "Well, we stole it fair andsquare didn't we?"

There is no such thing as merepolitics. National policy decisionsmust be examined in the light of theirmoral implications.

Self-determination is a moral, poli-tical, economic and social issue."Perhaps we're not talking so muchabout a canal. We're talking about apeople and a nation," commentedArchbishop McGrath of Panama.

We say that we are for theself-development of peoples. A posi-tive vote to the Canal treaties willprove our earnestness in our words.

The treaties are supported by thePresident and the Vice-President ofthe United States as well as formerpresident Ford, and Henry Kissinger.Other supporters include DefenseSecretary Harold Brown, Chairmanof the Joint Chiefs, General GeorgeBrown and even the Commander ofthe U.S. Forces in the Canal.

Broad support

1 am joined in my support byreligious groups who see the plight ofpeople as a part of their gospels: theNational Council of the Churches ofChrist, 65th General Convention ofthe Episcopal Church, David Blum-berg-president of B'nai B'rith, 188thGeneral Assembly United Presbyter-ian Church USA, AdministrativeBoard of the U.S. Catholic Confer-ence, and the United MethodistChurch.

However, we still have emotiona-lism, misunderstanding and a little(only a little) ignorance workingagainst us.

Someone recently told me thatPanama should control the canalzone. I asked if the Panamanians wereable to control it. The reply was."who cares?--we can't really handleit."

Tlie Panamanians are ready tooecfJme a nation of self-wortn. n uffip*'to us to help, to enhance, and to free.

By CATHY ANSCHELES "Staff Writer

The most notorious of prisoner-of-war stockades often treated theirinmates better than many children arebeing treated in America today.

That was the message visitinglecturer Ken Wooden brought oncampus this Tuesday when he said,"Even POW camps have basic regu-lations. We'd be happy if they(American juvenile centers) wouldfollow those."

Wooden spoke of documented in-stances in which children were kept insolitary confinement, gassed in 8 x 10rooms, forced to take untested birthcontrol pills, and injected with urine.

Author of Weeping in the Playtimeof Others and a consultant to thepopular CBS show "Sixty Minutes"on child abuse, Wooden charged thatthe main problem is that three verydifferent types of youthful offendersare receiving the same treatment.

Non-violent offenders are treatedjust like dangerous delinquents. Sta-tus offenders also receive the samedeal, even though the violent groupmakes up less than ten per cent, saidWooden.

The so-called "Status Offender" isthe most unjustly treated, often beingimprisoned for running away fromhome, truancy, and stubbornness.The average child is 14 years old,reads poorly, and is from an unstablefamily low on the socio-economicladder, according to Wooden.

Juvenile Rehabilitation Centers re-inforce and encourage criminal activi-ty in spite of their real purpose, heexplained. Eight out of ten youths insuch centers will return to jail.

"It becomes a macho thing, to seewho commits the heavier crime," .saidWooden.

Child Pornography was the topic ofthe evening 900 Room lecture. Wood-en concentrated on clearing up mis-taken views of "Kiddie Porn."

Most of the exploitation occursbetween men and young boys. Par-

ents are very rarely involved in this"brown-bag" industry. Those con-victed ar^*rarely strangers, buttrusted friends or relatives, Woodenexplained.

Usually they have past criminalrecords.

Wooden told stories of how BoyScouts and Boys Town leaders havetaken advantage of children duringvulnerable times.

After the first encounter youths areopen to blackmail and locked intoKiddie Porn.

Wooden even related how a Chicagonewsletter "Hermes" encourages thetimid individual to get involved withchild pornography by becoming moreactive in Boy Scouts and othersimilair groups.

He identifies "the politics of poli-tics" and legal loopholes as means bywhich the directors of these "homes"escape. Wooden said that he has beentold many times that "it is notglamorous enough to prosecute childcare abusers."

He accused Congressmen of "get-ting their pound of media flesh"through holding three separate hear-ings of the child abuse problem andthen promptly forgetting the wholeissue.

The National Coalition for Child-ren's Justice is taking numeroussteps, according to Wooden, to alertthe public and get action. The groupis now asking Congress to pass a billallowing "the U.S. Justice Depart-ment to investigate conditions affecting senior citizens and child care.

Work on a national bill of rights forchildren has also begun, he said.

Wooden suggrested that individu-als wanting to ease the child abuseproblem should volunteer for work inthe YMCA, Step-tutor, Big-Mrotherand Sister Programs, and otherrelated organizations.

But the best way to stop childabuse, he said, is closer to home.

Be better parents.

Foreign meals seek authenticityBy NANCY MCNAIR

music, a belly dancer cavortingabout, tables laden with lamb shishkebab, and pitta bread with tahina...A Cairo resturant? No, someplace alittle closer to home. Try the 900Room for the Union Minorities Com-mittee's second international dinnerto be offered Saturday, October 29.

Last year's ethnic dinners were sosuccesful that the Minorities Com-mittee has decided to continue them.The Egyptian dinner plans typify theconcern for authenticity. "We want toget away from Americanized orcommercialized versions of a coun-try's food and culture," said Interna-tional Dinners Chairman, Emilie Bry-an.

For example Youssef Abagui andOmaima Hatem, Egyptian Interna-tional Students, were consulted inplanning the Egyptian feast. Theyplanned u~l*.~..l-~ cuidfii*? shish ke-

babs with pilaf, foul (a bean dish),pitta bread with tahina (sesame dip),and baklava. Interspaced with danc-ing and music are folk stories as well.

"Our approach is an honest andopen one--we want to have fun, learna little, and eat a lo t , " said Bryan.Omaima noted however that to acco-modate the customs of some rural

Egyptian communities the womenmust eat seperately after waiting onthe men.

Both Bryan and Hatem praisedRon Scott of ARA Slater for hisefforts to achieve authenticity. "RonScott does a beautiful job if followingour recipes. He does all we ask and

always goes a step further with hisimaginative flair."

With waiting lists for both dinnersheld this year, the cultural eventspromise to perpetuate themselves.Bryan stated, "The main thing is anevening in which community, facultyand students can join in a pleasantsocial and cultural event."

Art Department gets shoes on straight at lastBy ESTHER BRUCE

Staff WriterAfter two years of standing idle,

the art department's new silk-screenmachine, the "New Artform" printercan now be put to use. Davidsonbought this machine two years agobecause of its many advantages overtheir old one. It is designed to printseveral colors at once, greatly simpli-

'ing the overall process.Unfortunately the operation of the

machine, itself w«s not so simple. The

faculty of the art department couldnot operate the machine, so theyasked Mr. Robert R. Malone, silk-screen expert, to explain the processto them. A long-distance attemptfailed, however, to solve the problem.

No further attempt was madebecause, Dr. Houchens explains, "Ireally didn't have time." Because ofthe diversity of the courses heteaches, he could not focus hisattention on this problem immediate-ly. This year, however, some ^

expressed a desire to do an indepen-dent research project using this"sophisticated piece of equipment."

The main purpose of the trip wasfor Mr. Malone to teach the artfaculty how to operate the machine,so that they could in turn teachstudents. To accomplish this heactually went through the process ofmaking some silk-screen nrints.

The process was long and intricate,spanning several hours. It was not setup for a particular class.

Drinking and alcoholism:how do you swallow it?

By PHILIP DUNCANNews Editor

Do not deduce all-encom-passing (ruths from the fol-lowing comments of nine Da-vidson students. I have con-ducted no scientific poll onalcoholism at Davidson.

Consider instead the locusof your personal opinion onthis spectrum of diverse, ran-domly-selected uie

"When I was in high schoolI did not^drink much—alcoholwas just not available. Then Icame here and went ape."

This student explained thatsince his freshman year he hasmoderated his drinking habits(which "definitely hurt meacademically") and now aver-ages about two beers per nightsix nights a week.

He views drinking as a formof social interaction, "the easi-est way to talk to people." Heand some friends, several ofwhom have "heavy drinkinghabits" are the prime moversof a new social organization oncampus. They gather infor-mally in the 900 Room with aspecial title.

"First there is 'MellowMonday," he explains, "then,"Tranquil Tuesday". In orderfrom there are 'Wipeout Wed-nesday,' 'Thoughtless Thurs-day ,' ' Fry-Day,' and Satur-day--well, Saturday's theweekend." (And you knowwhat that means.)

"I'm a reformed alcoholic. 1used to drink a fifth ofwhiskey every week -now Idrink about twice a week,usually with meals.

"Why did I drink? Escap-ism. At Davidson if you cannot have fun you can alwayshave alcohol. How and whydid I slow down? Stoppingwas not a single consciousdecision. It was a slow processas I realized that I did notenjoy waking up feeling likeshit, that drinking cost toomuch money, and that myproblem did not go away."

a "moderate drinker" (as helabeled himself) agreed that"freshmen go wild-getting a-way from home, blowing itout, but insists that mostdrinkers then taper off tomoderation. He revealed thata friend of his was at one timea problem drinker.

"Depression over the twog's-girls and graoV.s—•*"""*him to drink up to a case of

beer a day." Through personalwill and peer encouragement,the drinker conquered hisproblem.

Another student does notdrink because his circle offriends in high school neverstarted and because "it's notsomething I want to do." Hedoes not feel his social life ismissing anything because ofhis abstinence, but he main-tains that "you have to havealcohol" to stage a successfulsocial event on PattersonCourt.

"I think most people go tothose parties to drink...therealways seem to be more linedup at the keg than on thedance floor.

She too has friends who areor were problem drinkers, "Ihad a friend who was a veryheavy drinker until he woke upone morning and the firstthing he said was 'I want aScotch.1 That scared him."

"I do not see what the

problem with alcohol is. I justhave a few Scotch and watersafter I get up and I do noteven think about alcohol untilafter lunchtime.

Then on the weekends I gothrough a few cases of JackDaniels —but I don't feel thatit's any big problem. When-ever I get worried about it Iwhip up a few daiquiris, sitdown and talk it out with my-self."

He complains of the distur-bances and vandalism perpe-trated by some who drink toomuch. "Being drunk is used asan excuse to get away withthings."

Another teetotaler who de-scribed himself as "tolerant"of drinkers believes that use ofalcohol increases at collegebecause people "get excitedabout the thought of doingthings you can not do athome.

" Fresh man year I did notdrink much. Sophomore year Idrank heavily to relieve ten-sion. Now I drink from habit.I enjoy the social aspect andcontinue to go to the 900Room because my friends arethere."

She drinks six nights aweek, sees herself as a "heavydrinker moving to modera-tion," motivated partially by adesire to improve academical-ly.

"Now you want to knowwhat I really think? I considermyself a social drinker. I veryrarely drink during the week,primarily because I can'tspare the money or the time.Maybe an occasional beer atdinner after a flickerball game,but that's it.

"On weekends, I usuallyenjoy a few drinks at acocktail party or a few beers inthe 900 Room because I likethe taste and because it rela-xes me. But it is a means to anend, not an end in itself. Theykey to unwinding is the com-pany of close friends and notthe alcohol.

"I drink for two reasons.First, because 1 like the taste.Second, to get the tension outof my body fast. This place

has contriDUted to my drink-ing—the tension gives meanother stimulus to drink.

'' I 've been drinking sincethe eighth grade. My parentswere moderate drinkers; theydidn't mind that I drank. Itwas never a big deal for me—Idrank beer at family cookouts,Jack Daniels—spiked eggnotat Christmas parties, etc."

In her early Davidson daysshe went on "binges". "I'dstart with a couple of mixeddrinks, then follow them witha few beers. Next I'd sharebottles of wine, pitchers ofbeer, and fifths of bourbonwith a few friends.

"I think my drinking ismore of a habit now. I don't goon binges like I used to." Shenow drinks every day; somedays one beer, some days sixor more. And that doesn'tcount special occasions whenmixed drinks, wine, and whis-key supplement the beer.

"I spend about three timesmore money on alcohol than Ido on food -.. -vemge ofabout $20 a week.

THE 900 Room serves an average of 450 gallons of beer per week. [Hunt<

"There are stages of beingan alcoholic, level of alcohol-ism." She considers herself atthe lower end of the "alcoholicscale; but believes she has ahealthy attitude towards drin-king. "I'm aware that 1 couldnot continue at this pace formore than a year. People whoignore their habit are in troub-le. I tell myself now that I'man alcoholic so that when I'm40 1 won't be.

Her close friend at homewas killed by a drunk driver.Contrary to expectation, how-ever, she does not launch intoa tirade about the evils ofalcoholism. She is reflective,wary, and not reactionary.

"Drinking on campus ispretty harmless, I suppose.But I worry that it is breedingbad habits for later in life."

She drinks sporadically —once, maybe twice a week,though "to be quite honest, Iwonder why I take a drink."

She knows friends who usedrinking as a crutch. "Theyseem to be under the impres-

sion that you need a falsestimulation to have a goodtime. I wonder if it is a myththat you have to have a drinkto have fun."

She doubts that a Courtparty could be successfulwithout alcohol. "I think thatis a sad commentary. I don'tgo because everyone sits ar-ound half-drunk."

Recalling the memories ofpeople sick after drinking toomuch, passed out on the floor,suffering from hangovers, sheis baffled by those who OV-ERIMBIEL. ": jtrftrdon'tunderstand why people do it."

Straight from England:thoughts on alcohol at Davidson

Iapproached the 900 Room with Percy,an intimate friend, filled with appre-hension: I was the only person on theother side of the counter.

Although the 900 Room isnot the only place studentsdrink, the amount of beer soldby ARA Slater is some indica-tion of how much Davidsonstudents drink.

Ron Scott reports the 900Room serves about 5000 glas-ses or 450 gallons of beer perweek. "This is not really a lotof beer," reports Scott. "Thisfigure averages out to fourglasses of beer per studenteach week."

According to Scott, theamount of beer sold dependson the programing. Fridayand Saturday nights are thebusiest nights for the bar.Scott says, "On a Mondaynight when there is no enter-tainment in the room we sellabout 1500 glasses of beer toabout 250 students. This aver-ages out to be six glasses ofbeer per person.

below the amount projected byARA upon opening of the 900Room. Scott says, "We fig-ured each student would spendabout $1.50 a week on beer.We have never reached thatamount. It actually averagesout that the student body onlyspends SI.00 a week."

Scott reports most studentsspend their money on Strohsbeer. The most popular"munchies" are corn chip typefoods such as Fritos andDoritos.

The 900 Room employs fourto five workers on busy nightssuch as Disco nights. Onquieter nights they employthree. They always have atleast two people working: oneat the door and one behind thebar.

ARA Slater also provideskegs to Patterson Court par-ties, "On a busy weekend,"reports Scott, "we sell anaverage of 300 gallons of beer.There are 15' 2 gallons of beer

average of 150-175 glasses ofbeer per keg depending uponwho is pouring."

Scott provides an average oftwo kegs for single houseparties and four degs forcombined house parties. Thecombined house parties usu-ally draw around 200-300 peo-[ l i e .

"Of course Patterson Courtdoes not always buy its beerfrom us. There are otherdistributors in the area." addsScott.

Scott is cognizant of the factthat this new practice goesagainst the Davidson "atmos-phere of trust, truthfulness".But he points out that if anoffense occurred and the beerpermit was revoked as aresult "Then.those alumniand trustees who had initial

A similar situation occurredwith a group of "regulars"who visit the 900 Room night*

Moreover, the "card-sign-ing" process does not intentlycorrect the problem of under-age drinkers in the 900 Room.If a student signs a card, isadmitted, and then is found tobe underage by an ABC Boardinvestigator, the simple sign-ing of a card does not protectSlater from having its beerlicense revoked in any way.

An alternative plan hasbeen presented to Scott, inwhich all students would signa list containing their birth-

ly. Stated one: "Obviously,.the doorman knows us by date, address, etc. Hence, if he

ever forgot his ID, he wouldsign a card, and signatureswould be compared.

When presented with thisplan, Scott insisted that inducing students to carry ID's isthe best possible solution, yetstated that he and the UnionBoard might possibly makerefinements in the future. "Weare continually pursuing better ways to work it," he said.

In the meantime, studentswill have to put up with theinconvenience of proving theiridentification before beinggranted the privilege of con-suming their "favorite beve-rage" in the 900 Room.

The Fall Major Drama Production,Shakespeare's As You Like It pro-vides an evening of enjoyable, if lessthan profound, theatre.

Although the play itself, being oneof the playwright's less polished, doesnot offer stimulating material, thecast, under the direction of Professorof Drama and Speech Rupert T.Barber, presents a plausible rendi-tion.

Bad diction, slow pace, and poorlytimed lighting along with the diffi-culty of Shakespearean language marthe first act.

Chuck Still presents an Orlandowith a Tennessee accent, difficult tounderstand, and hardly appropriate.However, the lines are deliveredaccurately and, if one divorces oneselffrom this minor drawback, his charac-ter comes across well.

The first act suffers considerablyfrom slow pacing. Perhaps this is dueto the audience's unfamiliarity withShakespearean dialogue, perhaps thefault lies in the play itself. One ispleased, however, to return from thefirst intermission to a much improvedflow of action. The second and thirdacts more than compensate for theinitial wait.

Act One disappears as the cast,Professor of Drama and SpeechJoseph Gardner's imaginative set andShakespeare's magic enchant you intoa wood in which live the mostentertaining characters of the play:the ousted Duke and his band.

During these Acts most playersshow their virtuosity, from TomBesselieu as the Duke Senior to AnnBurke, as the shepardess, Phebe.Their warmth comes across quitewell.

Margaret (Jake) Darby's Gane-mede comes across more realisticallythan her Rosalind because she playsthe female role a little too brashly. Asa man, however, she does well.

Andrea Murphy's Celia has all thecharm and innocence a shelteredspoiled youth needed for the part,while Brad Christie presents a Jac-ques with spark, sass and wit. Theyare to be commended.

Unfortunately the cast could notkeep up its vitality to the end of theirpresentation, as the marriage scene, amass gathering of all members of thecast, lacked the excitement andspectacle of a happy ending. It is,nevertheless, blessed with some veryfunny lines.

What's it like having a brother orsister on campus? Most everyone haswondered at one time or another, andhere are the thoughts of ten peoplewho know.

Sophomore Anne Eglin and hersister Susan are happy to be at thesame school. Anne worked hard to getSusan interested in Davidson, andshe won. "I was not at all open-min-ded; I wanted her here."

Susan is happy with her decision.She feels closer to her sister. "We nowhave different friends which gives us alot more to talk about and less toargue, which I think makes uscloser."

Anne and Susan usually see eachother at least once a day but seldomfor any length of time. They wouldlike to do more together, but they arehesitant about being together toooften. "Right now, we are at a peakand are getting along very well, butI'm afraid we could get too much ofeach other," Anne said.

Susan agrees. "At home, we did toomuch together. This way we are morefree, and it's much easier."

Asked whether they could everroom together, they replied, "Thatwould be like the kiss of death."

Quite different from Anne andSusan are freshmen twin brothersDavid and Hayne Neisler. For them,Davidson College is a family tradi-tion. Their father, grandfather, anduncles all attended Davidson. Theirolder brother Parks is a junior herenow, and their cousin Liz is on JYA inFrance.

They seldom see Parks, "But he did

help us choose our courses," Davidsaid.

David and Hayne share the samedorm room on 4th Watts, and theyhave had little trouble adjusting tocollege life. "After all, we shared thesame room at home for eighteenyears."

In addition to being roomates, theyare taking the same courses. Askedwhether their professors could tellthem apart, Hayne said, "Yeah, theyjust ask for David or Hayne Neislerand one of us answers." "We're usedto people messing up, though,"replied David, "so if I'm walkingdown the hall and someone calls meHayne, I always turn around."

In the spring, David and Parkshope to join Hayne on the Davidsongolf team.

Two more brothers on campus,senior Dave Tinkler and freshmanStuart do not see each other often,but they are glad to know that theother one is around. Stuart said, "IfDavid wasn't here, I don't think Iwould be here. He has made it easierto leave home and start college."

Dave is glad to have Stuart here."He might see some value in myopinions now. At first I was afraidthat Stuart's presence might inhibitme, but it hasn't."

Stuart enjoys being identified withDave, but "it does get annoying onlybeing known as David Tinkler's littlebrother," he said.

Sisters Jamie and Carolyn Watthave a close relationship at Davidson.They try to check up on each otherevery day. "This year we seem to seemore of each other," said Jamie.

"Having each other here has been areal help. We have been able to makemore acquaintances, and we can helpeach other if we need each other,"Carolyn said.

Asked whether professors identifythem together, they said, yes. "Jam-ie's being just in front of me does havesome effect in class, but not toomuch," replied Carolyn.

They would like to do more thingstogether, but it is hard for them tofind the time. They think livingtogether would be awkward, but theycould do it.

"One of the best things abouthaving Carolyn here," Jamie said, "isthat I can borrow her clothes, and oneof the most difficult things is sharinga vehicle with her."

Will and Nancy Long have enjoyedbeing at Davidson together. "We'vegotten to be better friends," Nancysaid, "although we see each other lessthis year, it's good to know that he'saround."

Will feels that he was lucky havingNancy here his freshman year. "Be-cause she was a hall counselor, lusedthat as an excuse to visit the girls onher hall."

Nancy and Will both enjoy bump-ing into each other at parties. "Afterall, somebody has to keep an eye onWill," she said.

One Year LaterDavidson graduate returns in Cabaret

By KEVIN SHELLYStaff Writer

"Graham, what 's it like to be astar?," I asked, not exactly sure howto begin an interview with an oldfreshman hallmate.

"Well, I don't know," said Gra-ham, stroking his goatee as hisfamiliar, mischevious smile spread,"but I'll let you know."

Six shows of Cabaret a week, everyweek, has not taken any of the humorout of Graham Smith, who graduatedfrom Davidson last year with anEnglish degree and a desire to workwith theatre.

He is getting more than his share.Back in September Graham went to

Connecticut College to join rehearsalsthat were already in progress. "I was

Now he drives a truck, sots up andbreaks the stage, shifts sets, and hasa small walk-on. He says he gotto where he is, a little more thanunimportant, as he puts it, "not byexhibiting any great know-how, butby working my tail off and doinganything."

The show's schedule calls for 1\\one-nighters before Christmas. Al-ready the show has been from NewEngland to Florida, and all the stopsbetween, playing in colleges andauditoriums with facilities rangingfrom gyms to grandly appointedtheatres. But tha t ' s part of theattraction to Graham.

"It 's exciting to make it work each

day and make it work m a completelydifferent situation, with a differentaudience and a different situation andto have to wing it in certain unantici-pated areas."

Graham intends to go to graduateschool next year in drama, and lookson this as his year "to be exposed. '

"Contact with people who makethis work as a living is a goodexperience, no matter how I go indrama. It 's done me good to knowthere are all types attracted bytheatre but with many differentattitudes, people with heads on theirshoulders but doing something crazylike this."

Does that mean that theatre is toocrazy for him? "The lifestyle is wildand wooly — I 'd like, to come home andsleep when I want. You're totally

separated lrom people you're fondol . " he said, looking across at hisgirlfriend.

" I t ' s confirmed the assumptionthat this is a totally involved thing-I'm not sure I'm dedicated to doingtheatre in that way, which brings meback to doing college theatre."

"With professional theatre you'vegot to please a paying audience,whereas college theatre 's goals aremuch broader. You can take a chanceand write it off as an educationalexperience."

"At the end of this I hope I'll havesomething very definite to react to."

How did (iraham feel about beingfeatured in the local advertisements?

"It will probably attract the Char-lot te crowd," he said, stroking hisgoatee and smiling.

Cats display talentsBy DEAN EKLUND

Staff WriterFreshman Todd Haynes

scored 38 points and PatHickert added 24 to lead theRed team to a 100-90 victoryover the White squad in anintrasquad basketball scrim-mage game last Friday.

John Gerdy and freshmanRick Dibenedetto paced theWhite squad with 21 and 19points, respectively.

Coach Dave Pritchett, whenasked if he was surprised byTodd's performance, which in-cluded 15 of 18 from thefield —mostly from inside —re-marked, "Not really. The keywas he (Todd) played with theolder team. Kevin (Doherty)was on the team (Red squad)and he's played before. Hic-kert and Bowker were on theteam and they played lastyear. "They set good screens.

Screening and timing was theimportant thing."

Pritchett explained why thescrimmage was held so early inthe year, "I think it isimportant to get a lot ofscrimmage experience whenyou have as many freshmenand sophomores on the teamas we do.

"I was not interested inGerdy Friday,jbut I wanted toget the younger guys exper-ience scrimmaging."

"We will hold a scrimmageonce a week, either Saturdaymorning or Friday afternoon,open to the public, from nowon in."

This year the Cats havechanged their basic offensebecause as Pritchett ex-plained, "Last year we had toget Marvin (Lively) involved,and at times Gerdy, involvedat forward.

"Pat (Hickert) did not playa lot his freshman year, so hewas basically a first year man.So I thought our salvation wasto pull people away from thebasket and slice in."

"This year with the fresh-men we're bigger, and withRod (Owens) and Pat we'remore experienced. I thinkwe're better at the powergame, so we'll go insidemore."

The new offense involves alot of screening to free meninside, which was responsiblefor getting Haynes open insiderepeatedly in the scrimmagegame.

Pritchett comments on thedefense, "The guard defense isgood. Chris Dobbs is quick.

"The three other freshmen(Todd Haynes, Brad Walker,Rich Dibenedetto) had to*,guard centers in high school soit has been harder to establishinside defense."

On the serious attitude jun-ior standout, John Gerdy, hasdisplayed in practice CoachPritchett said, "Last year hesaw how good he can be. Thelast ten games last year set thestage for John. He wants topick up where he left off."

Finally Coach Pritchett willhave the opportunity this yearto work with a much deepersquad.

As Pritchett noted, "Onething most people didn't real-ize last year was that we onlyhad six men on scholarship.Kevin (Doherty) was lost andStallworth was out (with aninjury) for the season.

"This year we'll have fourmore freshmen and our menwill have more experience. Ourdepth will be much better."

Kickers attempt tosnap losing streak

By JOHN BUTLERStaff Writer

With only four games re-maining on the Fall soccerschedule, the Wildcats are stilllooking for their first win.

Their winless record,though, is not indicative of thecaliber of Davidson soccer.Several losses have been byonly one or two goals, and theWildcats are playing a suicideschedule including teams likeAppalachian State, ranked inthe top ten in the nation.

The Wildcats' biggest prob-lem seems to be lack ofexperience. Unlike most of theteams they are playing, Da-vidson does not recruit veryheavily for Soccer. Therefore,a large portion of this year'steam is made up of walk-ons.

But the players, who aremostly Freshmen and Sopho-mores, and Coach Carl Krem-ser are dedicated to makingDavidson soccer a success.

Throughout the season thesoccer team has shown steadyimprovement.

However they are still tooinconsistent, allowing the op-position to score too incon-position to score most of itspoints during brief breaks inthe Wildcats' concerntration.According to one player, "Wejust can not figure out what iswrong."

Davidson begins a threegame home stand this Satur-day against V.M.I, at 2:00.The final match of the seasonwill be against Virginia inCharlottesville on November6.

Rifle team aims for smashing victoryBy JOHN WILLINGHAM

Staff Writer

(•'or the Davidson CollegeRifle Team, opt imism is thebyword as a new seasonapproaches.

Ten shooters return from asquad that was 18-8 last yearwith five of the losses toAppalachian State University,a team ranked in the top ten inthe country.

It was Davidson's best per-formance in several years, butaccording to junior Tom Nib-lock, this year's edition shouldbe much better. "We lost ourbest shooter, but still we'rebetter", he declared.

"We've been improving

steadily over the lasl threeyears," Niblock pointed out.noting that the depth of thesquad will be a decisive factor.

There is only one senior onthe 1977-78 unit, but there arefour juniors and five sopho-mores as well.

In the past , the squadusually chose "two or threededicated shooters" from thefreshman class, but with theaddition of six talented fresh-man this year, the teamappears to have as much depthas any team in recent years.

The rifle team competes inthe Southern Conference aswell as the Western CarolinaConference, which is purely arifle conference composed of

nine schools.A major difference between

the two forms of competitionis that the SC matches areusually one school againstanother, while the WCC con-tests pit four-or more teamsagainst one another.

The Southern Conferenceschedule gets underway thisSaturday as the Wildcats tra-vel to Greensboro, N.C., totake on North Carolina A&T.

Based on the performancesof last year, some of the higherscores are expected from Nib-lock, senior Tom Miller, juniorKatherine Whitney and JohnParham, a sophomore.

Haynes brightensCats' cage hopes

By PAUL BANTASports Columnist

Davidson basketball hasgone a while without a realpleasant surprise. Over thelast several seasons far morethings have gone wrong thanright.

No, there is not going to beany glorious prediction for theupcoming season. I 'm notvery good at telling the future.

But there is a bright spotdeveloping that few wouldhave expected. For those whohave been watching the Wild-cats workout the past twoweeks, this will be no newnews.

After the recruiting seasonended last spring, many aDavidson basketball fan couldrecite the life history of threeof the Wildcats' four signees.They were easy to rememberwith their high scoring aver-ages and all-state honors. Butthe fourth didn't make muchof an impression.

This fourth freshman isTodd Haynes and he intro-duced himself to many lastFriday by scoring 38 points inthe Wildcats' first scrimmage.

He was not highly recruitedfor several reasons, none ofwhich reflected on his ability.His high school didn't play ina great league. His hometownof Bourbonnais, 111., is small,and his coach preferred aslow-paced offense which didnot help a player build up theimpressive s ta t is t ics thatdraw coaches' attention.

This didn't stop Dave Prit-chett and company from con-vincing the 6-7, 207 forward toplay for the Wildcats.

"The first time Coach(John) Kochan saw me was atpract ice ," Haynes remem-bered. "He offered me ascholarship that first time."

It wasn't the only offer hewas to receive—several stateschools nearby tried to con-vince him tha t there werebetter places for him than asmall school in North Caro-lina.

"They all played up playingin front of your family reallyhard," Haynes said. "Some ofthe coaches from the otherschools pointed out the recordat Davidson, too. But there***'such a better schedule here.Davidson had the most to

offer."Coach Pritchett was a lot

more s traightforward," hecontinued. "The others weremore business-like and not aspersonal. I couldn't have goneto a school where I didn't likethe coach."

Even though Haynes wasthe least heralded of the newWildcats, he hasn't seen him-self as being less able.

" I never got much publi-city," Haynes said. "I went tobasketball camp at IllinoisState before my senior year. Ishared MVP honors with aguy that was all-state. I hadno problems playing with the"good" players. Then I knewthe publicity was all politics.They just were on good teapns.

" I 'm looking forward toplaying against big-nameplayers," he went on. "There'sno pressure—if he beats you,people just say he's good, butif you beat him, it stands out.Also, I. can improve by play-ing better players."

Like the rest of the team,Haynes was happy to haveCoach Pri tchet t back at thehelm.

"Coach's absence was themain topic of concern thisfall," he admitted. Ever sincehe left, we were told he'd beback next week. It wasn't' hisfault he was gone.

"He had told me on thephone he would be back herefor practice. I believed him.When he finally got here,everyone was more at ease.Everyone from last year reallymissed him."

While he has surprisedsome, Haynes is doing as wellas Pritchett thought he would.

"We were high on him allthe way ," the Wildcat headcoach said. "We knew what wehad. We turned down a high-ly touted recruit from UpstateNew York for him."

For the football Wildcats,there couldn't be a worse placeto have to play VMI than atLexington. The Keydets are adifferent team in their ownstadium. They are 3-0 there,having defeated William andMary, Richmond and TheCitadel before the home folks.On the road is just the

" t ip^odle, 0-3, with the Key-dets dropping games to Army;Hast Carolina, and Lehigh.

October 28,1977 The DavkJsonian 15Study shows pot's effect on athleteEditor's Note: The NationalCollegiate Athletic Associa-tion published in its October15th issue an article entitled,"The Athlete and Marijuana"written by Dr. Hardin B.Jones, University of Californiaat Berkeley, who also is amember of the NCAA DrugEducation Committtee. TheDavidsonian feels this articlepresents some new and inter-esting perspectives on the useof marijuana.

The most extensive study ofthe lingering effect of thehemp drugs was conducted atthe request of the Egyptiangovernment by Soueif. Over a25-year period, Soueif ob-served 850 hemp-drug usersand matched them againstcontrols. Both the users andthe controls were given stand-ard tests of mental function.The tests showed that "thosewith a higher level of educa-tion—and/or intelligence—show the largest amount ofdeterioration from marijuanause."

Effects on driving(/^•Studies of the influence ofmarijuana on driving haveshown that marijuana impairsjudgment and reduces thedriver's ability to gauge time,distance, speed and road con-ditions. The severely alteredbehavior of chronic marijuanausers suggests that drivingperformance would be im-paired even between users;users are never completely freefrom the burden of the activematerial.

From what we know of theeffects of marijuana on theuser's perception of time, dis-tance, speed, thinking andshort-term memory, it likely isthat athletic performance alsois affected, especially duringthe marijuana high.

Recognizing marijuana us-ers in the early stages of usepresents a problem. Unlikeusers of alcohol, marijuanausers cannot be recognized bysigns such as a staggeringgait, slurred speech or charac-teristic odor on the breath.The means of detecting mari-juana users are more complex.The presence of cannabinoidresidues in urine indicate mar-ijuana use within the pasttwenty-four hours. The levelof THC in the blood, fat orfeces can indicate the intakelevel over a period of manymonths. Such chemical testsare now possible, but expen-sive. Rapid, inexpensive me-thods of marijuana detectionprobably will be developed.

Marijuana vs. alcoholPeople who argue for the

legislation of marijuana com-pare it to alcohol; but the twodrugs are not similar at all.Alchol is a water-soluble sub-stance and therefore is meta-bolized to provide cell energy.It leaves the body rapidly andcompletely, with no residue.The adverse effects of alcoholare brought about by largedoses. Marijuana is a complex

mixture of many cannabin-oids, each of which may havedifferent effects on the body.

THC, the principal activeingredient in marijuana, ishighly soluble in fat andinsoluble in water. THC re-mains in the fatty structuresof the cells for long periodsand, with repeated use, accu-mulates there. Because THCis removed slowly from thebody, even small doses mayhave adverse effects, andmany months may be requiredto recover. Thus, the mari-juana user is under the in-fluence of the drug evenbetween highs. Many adverseeffects correlate with the dura-tion of use rather than withthe size of the dose, and theremay be no truly safe range ofexposure.

It takes decades for irrever-sible brain changes to appearin the heavy drinker. In themarijuana smoker, irreversiblebrain changes may appearwithin three years. Comparingalcohol with callabis, Paton, aprofessor of pharmacology atOxford University, said: "Theprice (in health) for (mari-juana) overuse is paid inadolescence or in early life; theprice for alcohol overuse ispaid in later life."

As the use of sensual drugshas increased over the pastfew years, the consumption ofalcohol also has increasedamong youth. There are sev-eral reasons for this increase.Drug users like the compound-ing effects of alcohol and otherdrugs. Marijuana and barbitu-rates condition the mind so asto diminish the protectivereflex of vomiting to eliminatean overdose of alcohol fromthe system. Marijuana andbarbiturate users are thus ableto increase their consumptionof alcohol.

Alcoholism is now consi-dered the fourth major prob-lem in the United States.Alcoholism has increased tosuch an extent among youngpeople that Alcoholics Anon-ymous now sponsors specialgroups specifically geared tohelp young alcoholics. Withtne intTeftSWjg use.of 'mari-juana, another major health

problem has been added to thelist.Recovery from marijuana use

The effects of marijuana arefelt only gradually and userscannot recognize the changesin themselves. Marijuanaseems to affect their ability toevaluate themselves accurate-ly. Marijuana users may belethargic, slow witted, proneto error, unable to makepractical plans for the future,careless about their appear-ance, and unable to rememberimportant details or recallevents in the immediate past,yet they may not recognizeany of these changes.

Most users can be convincedof the adverse effects of mari-juana if they can be persuadedto stop using it long enough tosee how much they recoverafter a period of abstinence. Ihave suggested to more thantwo thousand marijuana usersover the years that they stopusing marijuana for severalweeks "just as an experi-ment". The results have beenstriking: many have reportedthat they could think moreclearly; some described thefeeling of recovery as a "liftingof the fog". Even those whodid not seem affected by mari-juana reported that they reco-vered their sensory perceptionand thought processes afterseveral months of abstinence.

The user's memory is thefirst thought process to im-prove; then his ability to formthoughts becomes more vigor-ous; finally, after severalmonths of abstinence, he be-gins to notice he feels morealive.

The brain has a tremendouscapacity for recovery. In aprevious installment of thisarticle, we discussed recentevidence that brain cells weredestroyed by chronic mari-juana use. Many of mari-juana's adverse effects are notcaused by the destruction ofbrain cells and are thereforereversible. Because the braincells and synaptic connectionsmay be damaged and becausethe accumulated cannabinoidsare eliminated slowly from thebedy. th: r .cwny may beslow.

Teaching dangers ofmarijuana use

Many government officials,educators and scientists havechosen to cope with the mari-juana problem by makinglight of it or by condoning theuse of the drug. They dwell onthe legal aspects and minimizethe health hazards. The resulthas been that the public hasnot been informed about find-ings that could end the appealof marijuana. Americans noware consuming far greaterquantities and stronger pre-parations of cannabis drugsthan they were a few yearsago. It has been disheartening

to see so many thousands ofyoung people start using mari-juana under the assumptionthat it is a harmless drug.

Young people care abouttheir brains and bodies. I havefound in my teaching on drugabuse that an effective ap-proach to educating people onthe dangers of drug use is toexplain to them the functionsof the brain. The subject isfascinating and gets immedi-ate attention. Then I explainthe effects of the psychoactivedrugs on mood and thoughtformation. With an under-standing of how the brainworks, my students have beenable to replace the idea thatdrugs expand the mind with amore profound appreciation ofthe complexity of the humanmind and body.

Marijuana booksMy wife and I saw the

necessity for a book explainingto the layman how the brainworks and is affected bysensual drugs. As a result, wewrote Sensual Drugs: Depriv-ation and Rehabilitation of theMind (Cambridge UniversityPress, 1977). We present anapproach to getting youngpeople off drugs that hasproven effective for indivi-duals struggling to end theiraddiction by themselves orthrough treatment in rehabili-tation centers. We discussmarijuana extensively in aseparate chapter.
