ME professors moved without consent
By Al Gross
Staff Writer
Five tenured professors were reas­signed
without their consent, accord­ing
to Textile Engineering Sen. Roy
Broughton, who spoke at the close of
Tuesday's University Senate
meeting.
The five professors, all in mechani­cal
engineering, were called into
Dean Lynn Weaver's office and told
that they were to he reassigned for
"the enhancement of the academic
programs," Dr. John L. Turner, one of
the removed teachers, said.
"It was a bolt out of the blue,"
Turner said.
Turner, who received two of his
degrees from the department he must
now leave, is being moved into agri­cultural
engineering, an area in
which he does not hold a degree.
"It is not unusual in a university for
there to be teachers in an area in
which they do not hold a degree,"
Weaver said.
The reasons given for the change
were based on the report of an accre­diting
board citing low morale and
divisiveness in the department.
This was not the first the depart­ment
had heard of the division, and
Weaver said he felt that this was the
best way to handle the situation.
Turner said that he does not yet
know what actions might be taken to
halt the change that is to go into
effect Jan. 1, 1987, but they have not
ruled out civil action.
"The way I see it," Turner said, "we
have three choices: We can accept it,
seek a reversal or leave Auburn."
If forced with the change or the
choice of another university, Turner
said he would be forced to leave.
Dr. Allen R. Bar bin, another of the
affected teachers said that, because of
his age and two years needed for
retirement, he would choose to stay.
Although he said that if he was a
younger man, he would be "gone in an
instant."
Neither of the professors were
optimistic about their future salaries.
For while there was no mention of a
change of pay with the different posi­tion,
the hope of future raises in a field
where they do not hold a degree seems
slim to them, they said.
"I have a suspicion that I am dead
in the water," Barbin said.
The other affected teachers include
Dr. Winfred A. Shaw, Dr. Glennon
Maples and Dr. Weldon F. Swinson.
Earlier, the senate heard the final
two reports on the pros and cons of
different aspects of the proposed
change from the quarter to semester
system. This time it was about the
cost of the change and the effect on
summer enrollment, salaries and
employment
Dr. Gerald Leischuck told the
senate that his committee had in
essence come to no conclusion.
"The issue can be argued both
ways, it can or can not be expensive,
depending on which side your take,"
he said.
While the actual cost of the change
would not be exhorbitant, it would be
costly in terms of man hours spent to
implement the change, according to
Leischuck.
The majority of the financial
information available will come from
the University of Tennessee, which is
currently in the process of changing
to the semester program, he said.
Tennessee is 14 months into their
conversion, and the semester system
is to be completely implemented by
September 1988.
For information about summer
enrollment, the committee sent out
questionnaires to other colleges ask­ing
their administrations about
changes that they have gone
through.
The general response was that even
though there were drawbacks, the
change was worth it in the long run.
Officials at the schools said that
the schools' enrollments did not
suffer much change and the summer
saleries were acceptable to its
teachers.
The next step in the quest will be an
open forum with the members of the
six committees fielding questions
about proposed changed. The meet­ing
is set for sometime in January.
Also discussed were the Universi­ty's
holdings in South Africa which
are going to be completely phased out
by the end of November and the new
home of the Alumni Association to be
built where the Phi Kappa Tau Fra­ternity
house now stands.

Premium increase passed by Board
By Laura C. Barnwell
Staff Writer
A proposal to increase Univer­sity
employees health insurance
premiums was adopted by the
Board of Trustees on Friday.
The premiums go from $28 to
$38.50 a month for singles, and
family coverage will increase
from $58.50 to $81 beginning Jan.
1.
The reason given for the
increase is that over the last 12
months the self-funded Univer­sity
health insurance program
paid more money in claims than
it collected in premiums.
In other actions, the board
authorized President James E.
Martin to borrow money from a
bank if state money needed for
payrolls is not received in time for
paychecks. The October payment
has not been received and is not
expected until late November.
Major improvements in Uni­versity
housing will be paid for
with a bond issue of $21 million.
The bonds will be repaid with
housing revenues.
—A $20 million bond issue will
be used for construction and ren­ovation
of academic and admi­nistrative
facilities.
—The University will refund
the 1985 Athletic Revenue Bonds
in order to take advantage of
lower interest rates. A bond issue
of $4.5 million will be issued for
construction of an athletic
administration facility.
The board authorized WEGL-FM
to seek approval from the
Federal Communication Com­mission
to increase its radiated
power from 380 watts to 3,000
watts.
—The timber on the 22 acres of
University land known as the
"Forestry Plots" will be sold to
Thomas A. Carroll of Carroll
Logging, Opelika for $25,100.
Chairman of the University
Senate, Dr. Claude W. Gossett Jr.,
associate professor of music, told
the board that the faculty was
"encouraged by (the board's) wil­lingness
to hear our concerns and
our hopes for this, our Univer­sity."
He added that while the faculty
is concerned with money, its
primary focus will be "inspiring
them (the students) to be better
citizens."
The board adopted a resolution
expressing the University's
appreciation to Solon and Mar­tha
Dixon of Andalusia for their
gift of 5,000 acres of timberland.

Resolution
Early fall start gets
student approval
By Allison Bishop
Assistant News Editor
The Student Government Association's cam­paign,
"I'll be home for Christmas," was adopted
Thursday by receiving 90 percent of the votes cast.
Thirty-Three percent of the more than 19,000 stu­dents
voted.
- "This will go to University Senate and than to
the people in administration," Robert Maund,
SGA president said to SGA Senate Monday night.
"This is the first hurdle, maybe we can implement
it in the next year or two. We've really got to get
behind it," he said.
Alex Atwater, chairman of the Student Welfare
Committee, which was in charge of drawing up
the resolution, said that the starting date would
vary depending on the date of Thanksgiving.
"It would be roughly a 10-day earlier start,
sometime in mid to early September," Atwater
said.
He said the 10 percent negative showing was
probably from the people who say their summer
jobs would be cut short.
"I really think students considered the summer
break would be shorter," Atwater said. "I really
think it will work out." He said it was inconceiva­ble
that students who lived, for example in Chi­cago,
to go home for Thanksgiving then return for
class and finals.
"This is mainly a statement by students," he
said.
The resolution reapportioning student senators
passed barely over the two-thirds margin needed
with 70 percent approval by students voting.
Maund said that the reason that it was so close
was a lack of knowledge of what the resolution
was about.
The Code of Laws Committee chairman, Del
Holley, presented the Senate with resolutions on
the amendment of University Disciplinary Com­mittee
structure, speech and demonstration regu­lations
and campus advertising regulations.
Changes in the disciplinary committee struc­ture
included apportionment of members, three
students and four faculty members instead of
three faculty members.
Holley said that mainly the resolution was a
clear statement of "what you have to do to be sent
to Dicipline Committee, the actions the committee
can take and the students' ability to appeal." The
changes will be present in the next issue of the
Tiger Cub.

Black enrollment this fall is a
record 3.5 percent, with 683 blacks out
of 19,363 students.
The University of Alabama has a
9.1 percent fall black enrollment. This
puts Auburn and Alabama at oppo­site
ends of the scale for fall black
enrollment at Southeastern Confer­ence
universities.
Despite these figures, black enroll­ment
for Auburn is steadily increas­ing
and should eventually catch up
with Alabama's black enrollment,
said Drew Welch, assistant director of
admission.
"Alabama probably started
actively recruiting earlier than
Auburn did. We used to not recruit
anyone. We started to actively recruit
blacks in 1983," Welch said.
Since Welch has been at Auburn,
the number of freshman blacks has
greatly increased. "My first year at
Auburn there were 68 freshman
blacks," Welch added.
Now, four years later, there are 239.
Some special minority recruiting
efforts include:
—minority student weekend
—scholarships for minorities
—purchasing names from the ACT
and SAT boards of blacks in Ala­bama,
Tennessee, Georgia and Flor­ida
who meet the admission require­ments,
but did not apply, and sending
them applications, etc.
—going to Alabama and Georgia
high schools and junior colleges
—calling students throughout the
year that have been accepted to keep
them from losing interest
—brouchure geared towards blacks
—SGA cabinet position director of
minority recruitment.

"Auburn was not known in the
black community as a place for black
students to attend. I think our name is
out now," Welch said.
Welch said that only 14 percent of
the blacks at Auburn are here for
sports. She said that she feels most
people think that the majority of the
blacks are here for sports, but they're
not.

Honors and awards
C. Wayne Alderman, asso­ciate
professor and acting head of
the School of Accountancy, has
been named a Liberty National
Professor by the College of
Business.
Alderman earned both his
bachelor's and master's degrees
from Auburn. He returned to the
campus in 1977 after completing
his doctorate at the University of
Tennessee.
An associate professor since
1982, he taught for one year at the
University of Texas in Austin.
Alderman is a certified public
accountant and the co-author of
two textbooks. His area of in­terest
is auditing.
The names of three Auburn
professors are included among a
list of more than 1,400 econo­mists
who have made significant
contributions to the science over
the past three centuries.
Andy Hubbard Barnett,
Robert Burton Ekelund Jr.
and Leland Bennett Yeager,
all of whom teach in the Auburn
College of Business, are listed in
Who's Who in Economics: A Bio­graphical
Dictionary of Major
Economists 1700-1986.
The book, published by M.I.T.
Press, contains biographical
sketches of 1,000 living econo­mists
worldwide. That figure,
according to the editor, repre­sents
the top 6 percent of those
currently in the field.
"Among 21 major universities
in the South, only Duke, Texas
A&M, Vanderbilt and Virginia
have more active economists
listed than Auburn," Robert
Hebert, head of the economics
department, said.
Barnett, an associate pro­fessor,
came to Auburn in 1982
from the University of South
Carolina. A graduate of Presby­terian
College in Clinton, S.C., he
received his master's degree from
Clemson University and his doc­torate
from the University of
Virginia.
Ekelund, a Lowder Professor,
is a graduate of St. Mary's Uni­versity
in San Antonio, Texas.
He came to Auburn in 1979 from
Texas A&M, where he had taught
for seven years. He received his
doctorate from Louisiana State
University.
Yeager, the Ludwig von Mises
Distinguished Professor of Eco­nomics,
came to Auburn in 1983
from the University of Virginia,
where he had taught since 1957.
He is a Phi Beta Kappa graduate
of Oberlin College. He received
both his master's and doctorate
degrees from Columbia Uni­versity.
Baker's high tech research 'unique'
By Rich Thigpen
Staff Writer
Although new to Auburn, Dr.
Terry Baker is already doing
vital research for the Center for
Advanced Technology and the
Space Power Program. Baker's
work involves i n t e r a c t i o ns
between gases and solids inside
an electron microscope.
"It's a fairly unique approach
where we actually watch reac­tions
taking place in real time,"
Baker said. "We follow the reac­tion
on television and record it on
videotape. It's from these record­ings
that we do a kinetic
analysis.
"So, what we really have is a
very sophisticated micro-reactor
where we watch and analyze the
system while it's undergoing
reaction," he said.
The research being done is
mainly to observe the way carbon
is broken down, but it will
"broaden significantly to include
the way fibrous materials can be
catalynically grown and the way
we can put additives into the
fibers to modify their electrical
and physical properties with the
idea of making new composite
fibers."
The composite fiber and carbon
research will have many applica­tions
for the space program and
the Strategic Defense Initiative
(SDI). "In the SDI program, it
will probably be used to make
new materials having very high
conductivity and strength that
EE student dies
Richard Steven Cox, 04 EE, 22,
was found dead in his car from an
apparent suicide at 2:40 a.m.
Monday 1.4 miles north of Lee
County Road 35 on Oakbowery
Road, Opelika.
Officer David Carrington of
the Opelika Police Department
found the 1978 Volkswagen, with
the engine running, 10-15 feet off
of the main road parked in an
access road, according to Capt.
Gary Knight of the detective
division.
"He was lying on the driver's
side with the seat back. There
was a vacuum cleaner hose run­ning
from the exhaust into the
the rear of the the auto through
the hatch," Knight said. There
was a note found.
Post mortem examinations
revealed that Cox died from c ar-bon
monoxide poisoning, accord­ing
to Lee County Coroner John
Story.
"All indications point toward
suicide," Story said.
Cox was a native of Lilburn,
Ga., and lived at 1425 Opelika
Road, Lot 33, in Auburn.

Baker began his career at the

years there before deciding I'd
had enough of industry, and that
I wanted to move into the aca­demic
life.
"I looked at a number of uni­versities
before I came here. What
made me decide on Auburn was
the potential the place has. It's
not so much as where it is at this
point in time, but where it's going
to be over the next five to ten
years.
"With the opportunities here,
the way research money is
brought in, the way team s of peo­ple
are brought together to work
on a project—I think this is an
extremely exciting place to be,"
Baker said.
For his future plans, he said he
would like to build a carbon
science center at Auburn. "I think
we have the potential here
already, and with more people
brought in, we could make this
University number one in carbon
chemistry, particularly in the
materials aspect.
"That's really what I want to
do, but I also want to interact
with young people. I'm very keen
on building up a reasonably large

First black fraternity house
positive for Greeks, students
By Salatheia Bryant
Staff Writer
The traditionally known "Men
of Action" have added another
accomplishment to their present
list of achievements.
This year, their hard work, ded­ication
and determination to
reach their goal of obtaining a
fraternity house made history for
the black greek-lettered organi­zation.
The fraternity, Alpha Phi
Alpha, is the first black organiza­tion
to have a fraternity house at
Auburn.
Alpha president, Anthony
Angion, said the group had been
looking for a house since last
spring quarter and had secured
their present one over the course
of the summer.
Angion explained that the fra­ternity
obtained the house not
only for themselves, but for black
students as well.
"The house was designed to
give black students a place to go
(for parties) other than Tuskegee
or Haley Center," he said.
This fall, the fraternity held its
first outdoor house party, and
despite the distance from cam­pus,
a large number of students
attended the function.
"The house may be far out and
a little small, but you have to
start somewhere," Fred Hamil­ton,
a member, said.
Angion said that another rea­son
for leasing the house was to
show black students that black
greeks were doing something
positive on campus.
The present House of Alpha is
located off-campus on Wright's
Mill Road and fraternity
members said that they have
plans to build a fraternity house
on Wire Road someday. "We have
been approached by the Univer­sity
about building a house, but
we don't feel we're ready now,"
Angion said.
Angion hopes that their frater­nity
house will only be the start of
accomplishments for black
organizations at Auburn. "We
hope that it will inspire others to
want to get a house or to do some­thing
positive on campus," he
said.
Angion said although the Uni­versity
lists them as a social ser­vice
fraternity they are mainly a
social fraternity.

Schools divest
Auburn follows
suit, withdraws
money from
South Africa
By Stephanie Warnecke
Staff Writer
In recent months, there has
been a great move towards div­estment
among the country's
universities and colleges. Accord­ing
to Vice President of Finance
Rhett Riley, the University will
follow the mood of the nation
regarding divestment.
"Currently, Auburn has three
companies in the University
portfolio who do business in
South Africa. Each of the three
subscribe to the Sullivan Princi­ples,
and they constitute less
than 5 percent of the total port­folio,"
Riley said.
The Sullivan Principles are a
set of standards
determined by a
study of all the
companies with
investments in
South Africa.
Focusing main­ly
on working
conditions and
non-discrimina­tion,
these stan­dards
must be
adhered to in
order for the
investment to be
considered ac­ceptable,
Riley explained.
"There is tremendous emotion
associated with divestment and
apartheid with a great segment
of our society," Riley said. "Peo­ple
feel it's the one thing they can
do, and the actual consequences
don't matter."
He added that he doesn't know
enough about the circumstances
of divestment to say what the
impact would be.
Auburn tennis player, Marcel
van der Merwe, from South
Africa disagrees with the idea
that divestment would help the
plight of the native African.
The economy was fairly strong
and self-sufficient before the div­estment
process began, he said.
"Total divestment would set us
back even more and especially
hurt the blacks."
He also pointed out that South
Africa is currently supplying
many of the jobs and industrial
goods for the surrounding coun­tries.
If all the major companies
were to pull out of South Africa,
these countries would also be
affected, according to van der
Merwe.
South Africa is mainly a tribal
country, according to van der
Merwe. Because of the large
majority of black people, if there
were to be a change to the one-man-
one vote that the anti-apartheid
leaders are calling for,
the blacks would elect the
president.
Currently, the Zulus are the
biggest tribe so their king would
be elected president, van der
Merwe said. No tribe would serve
under a king other than their
own, and revolution would break
out.
Because the problems are tribal
and cultural, instead of racial,
educating the blacks is more
important than anything else,
van der Merwe said. The Mobil
Corporation recently invested
$17 million into a foundation for
the uplift of black education
instead of divesting, according
toThe Washington Times.
More than 80 universities have
pulled investments out of com­panies
with South Africa invol­vement,
according toThe Gwin­nett
Daily News of Gwinnett
County, Ga.

19 more companies, including

out of South Africa.
According to the The Oakland

Warner Communications, Xerox
and many of the oil companies
will remain in South Africa.

Gov. George Wallace congratulates Miss Homecoming 1986
Murphy captures title
By Colleen Moran
Staff Writer
After a week of vigorous cam­paigning,
numerous appear­ances
and the University voting,
Shelly Murphy, 02 GC, has been
named Miss Homecoming 1986.
Murphy said,"I was in shock,
when my name was announced, I
wasn't expecting it" and that she
was relieved.
She was sponsored by Marin­ers,
Navy-Marine hostesses.
"I have felt as though people
have been watching me all
week," Murphy said.
First, for Murphy, was being
sponsored by a group. Next, was
an interview by the Student
Government that narrowed the
contestants to 20.
Another interview was then
conducted by a SGA panel to nar­row
the number of contestants to
five. According to Murphy, this is
more difficult than the first
interview and involves personal
questions.
After being selected into the top
five, it's onto the campaign trail.
Murphy's manager, Lori Hooks,
03 NS, got in touch with fraterni­ties
for support and distributed
Murphy's pictures.
The last step was the actual
voting by the student body. The
results were announced during
halftime at the football game on
Saturday.
"Some of the functions I had to
attend were at five-minute inter­vals.
It has been a yery hectic *
week," Murphy said.
The former 1986 Miss Greek
Week is considering going into
Fashion Merchandising and is
considering attending a fashion
school in Switzerland. Graduate
school is definitely in her plans,
she said.
She said she spends six months
of the year in Clearwater, Fla.,
and the summers and vacations
in her native Iowa.
"When I was nominated I never
thought I'd win. I was going
along with it for the fun," she
said.
"This is the biggest honor I've
ever known. It's a true symbol of
the Auburn students. Even
though I do not have many func­tions,
this was extrememly
important, because I . feel sup­ported
by jthe student.body,"
Graduate
i elections
scheduled
By Salatheia Bryant
Staff Writer
The Graduate Student Associ­ation
will soon hold its first for­mal
elections.
The elections will follow the
printed paper ballot format,
which will be hand counted, and
will take place sometime before
Thanksgiving.
Scott Beckey, GSA president,
said since the group is operating
without a budget the election
procedure they have now will
meet the needs of anticipated
voter turnout.
"We are not worried about the
system. We just want everyone to
know elections are taking place,"
he said.
During elections, graduate
students will be able to vote on
candidates for Senate and GSA
president.
Citing different needs from
undergraduate students and
sparse or no representation on
University committees, the GSA
voted last January to withdraw
from the Student Government
Association in order to better
meet the needs of the graduate
student body.
"We are a group and the SGA is
a group. We both perform similar
services but for different people,"
Physics Sen. John Crofton said.
"If the goal of the University is
to increase graduate student
enrollment then an organization
such as this one will help the
graduate student in the future,"
Beckey said.
Beckey and Crofton said that
insurance, computer time, taxes
and a graduate student orienta­tion
were among some of the con­cerns
the group might tackle in
the future.
"We can do so much more for
the graduate student with an
organization like thiB," Beckey
said.
Blacks support write-in candidate
By Sandra Ingram
Staff Writer
Because some blacks felt they
were discriminated against by
the panel of five judges who select
the finalists for the Miss Home­coming
election, they supported a
write-in black candidate who had
been one of the 20 finalists for the
position.
A black female has never been
elected to the Miss Homecoming
top five. This was attributed to
"institutionalized discrimina­tion,"
according to one adminis­trator
who spoke on the condition
of anonymity.
Rosalind Council, the write-in
candidate and one of the 20 final­ists
for Miss Homecoming, felt
that "blacks need their own can­didate."
The write-in campaign
was proposed, Council said, "to
get black students to vote and
make a statement that we want to
have some representation at this
school. We want to feel that we
can go out for things even though
we are a small minority."
Council, a junior with a double
major in mass communication
and journalism, felt the process
of selection is not fair to black
candidates because only one
black person sat on the panel for
final selections.
According to the constitution
of the Student Government Asso-
Victims
Infirmary reports average of 1 to 2 herpes cases weekly
By Natasha DeWees
Staff Writer
After Ann went on her first
date with Dan, (not their real
names), he told her he had
herpes. "He said whenever he
told anyone this they treated
him like a monster," Ann says.
"I didn't know much about
herpes so I felt sorry for him, but
I didn't go out with him again."
The pamphlet "Sexually
Transmitted Diseases" reports
that 200,000 to 500,000 new
cases of herpes occur in the Uni­ted
States each year. In Auburn,
Arloa I. Eckels, a doctor at
Drake Infirmary, says that
throughout the quarter she sees
an average of one to two new
cases of herpes each week.
She thinks the number of
cases vary, she says, because of
students' study habits. She sees
more students at the beginning
of the quarter when they have
been out for break and fewer
students during mid-terms and
finals when there is less time for
socializing.
The number of cases not seen
in the infirmary is difficult to
determine. Occasionally the
initial sickness may not be
severe, and if there is no recur­rence
Eckels says a student will
not see a doctor.
Another reason she says stu­dents
do not come to the infir­mary
is because they are afraid
of who will see them there.
When people learn the facts
about herpes, new cases can be
prevented, and physical and
emotional consequences can be
minimized.
Many pamphlets discuss
herpes, and all explain the same
basic facts. Herpes is an infec­tion
caused by a virus. There are
two kinds. Oral herpes, Simplex
I, appears around the mouth,
lips, chin or cheeks. Genital
herpes, Simplex II, appears on
the sex organs, abdomen, anus,
buttocks or thighs.
Any skin-to-skin contact can
transmit the virus, says Eckels.
"It cannot, however, be trans­mitted
through an inanimate
object because the virus can't
live long enough on a non-human
host to infect someone,"
she says.
The disease has four phases.
During phase one the skin red­dens
and begins to itch. During
phase two, two to 10 days after
phase one, blisters appear and
break open. During phase three
the sores shrink, and scabs
form. During phase four the
sores are healed, and the virus
retreats to nearby nerve cells.
Recurrences usually appear
in the same place because the
virus travels through the same
nerve path, Eckels says. Recur­rences
are less painful and short­er
than the initial infection.
They're more of a nuisance, she
says.
Recurrences are related to a
person's ability to combat dis­ease
so healthy habits can pre­vent
them. A balanced diet, rest
and good personal hygiene can
prevent them. Managing stress
and avoiding drugs and alcohol
can prevent them. And wearing
loose clothing and avoiding
vigorous sex that irritates the
skin tissue can prevent them.
When recurrences do appear,
the pain and healing time can
be reduced by drying blisters
with powder or taking cool
baths without soap. Soap can
irritate the skin.
virus does not disturb the nerve
cells where it remains inactive
so the body's defense system
does not attack it.
The virus is always in the
body, and Eckels says people do
not understand this. Even if
there are no sores, she says the
infection could still be transmit­ted
about 25 percent of the time.
A condom can help prevent
transmission, but Eckels says
it's not 100 percent effective.
"It takes a remarkably mature
relationship to survive herpes. It
makes people more responsible. tt
-Arloa I. Eckels
There is a medication, Acyc­lovir,
that breaks the virus'
growth and shortens the period
of recurrence. It is sold in cap­sule
and ointment form. A five
day supply from the University
Pharmacy is $22, says Polly
McGinnis, a pharmacist there.
A day's supply should be kept
at all times, she says, so when a
recurrence seems to be coming
the medication can be taken
immediately. When the medi­cine
is gone, the recurrence
should be gone.
Herpes cannot be cured. The
"It's better than nothing at all
because the more barriers used,
the safer it is," she says.
A diaphram is not as helpful
because it protects only the
inside of the female body. There
is no coverage on the outside so
the virus can still be transmit­ted,
says Eckels.
The infirmary charges $28 to
test for the antibodies the body
produces to fight the virus. The
test isn't 100 percent accurate,
says Eckels. "I feel it's a waste
of money because other antibod­ies
can be mistaken for herpes
antibodies," she says.
Emotional reactions to herpes
are common, Johnna Flowers,
family counselor at Drake
Infirmary says. But people
don't come in often for counsel­ing,
she says, because herpes is
a closet disorder, or because
they may be treating it as a
physical problem.
Flowers has counseled two
patients with herpes. The hard­est
thing she says students have
to cope with is the effect herpes
has on a romantic relationship.
Both partners have to be
informed about the dangers and
the necessary precautions.
"This means there has to be
understanding and trust in the
relationship before there is sex,"
says Flowers.
"It takes a remarkably
mature relationship to survive
herpes," Eckels says. "It makes
people more responsible."
Herpes is a disease that lasts
a lifetime. If it is not taken care
of properly, physical complica­tions
may occur.
The virus may be transferred
to other areas of the body if a
finger touches an open wound
and then touches another part
of the body. The eye is especially
prone to tht infection. Blind­ness
can result.
Pregnancy can be another
physical complication. The
baby can be infected with
See Disease, A-13
ciation (SGA), after a candidate
has been nominated she must go
t h r o u g h two qualifications
boards appointed by the SGA
Elections Board if there are more
than five candidates nominated.
The first board consists of the
SGA president, vice-president,
secretary of political affairs,
director of elections and two
other members. This board redu­ces
the number of candidates to
20. The second qualifications
board has five non-student
members and selects the top five
candidates. The students then
elect Miss Homecoming from this
group.
In the SGA Code of Laws pub­lished
in the Tiger Cub, bylaw
607.7 states "There shall be no
write-in candidates."
There were two black finalists
in the top 20 (Renee Pina, nomi­nated
by Tigerettes, and Council,
nominated by Delta Sigma
Theta, a black sorority), but
neither was selected to be one of
the top five candidates. They
were the only two black candi­dates
nominated and Black Stu­dent
Action Committee (BSAC)
did not nominate a candidate for
Homecoming.
Because there was only one
black panelist (out of five) on the
second qualifications board,
some black students supported
Council as a candidate. Council
felt a need for better representa­tion
on the panel of judges
because, "blacks are going to
identify with blacks more readily
t h a n whites identify with
blacks."
Page Gamble, SGA secretary of
Political Affairs, disagreed with
the statement that racism is built
into the selection process. Gam­ble
felt that two blacks being put
up for Miss Homecoming and
both being nominated to the top
twenty was quite an honor.
"The problem is the (black)
organizations aren't putting girls
up," Gamble said. He felt that
there was adequate representa­tion
of blacks on the qualification
boards.

112 years
. Guy Hunt must be on cloud nine
right now after his stunning election
on Nov. 4. But will someone please
-phone Guy and tell him it's time to
'-get down off the clouds and get to
work. That is, if he can accomplish
anything with the cards t h a t he has
been dealt.
For the first time since Recon-
' struction, Alabama has elected a
v Republican governor. That's 112
v years to you and me.
sr. It was time for a change and to let
-a fresh face and party in the door to
see what they can do. But what will
'our new Republican governor be
' a b l e to accomplish when he has a
"lieutenant governor, secretary of
..state and treasurer that are
' Democrats?
And what uphill climb does Hunt
• face when he walks into the state
'Legislature with his agenda of pro­posals
he wants passed? The state
^Legislature is o v e r w h e l m i n g ly
'Democratic, and it looks like Hunt
'will have an extremely difficult time
'getting any measure passed.
•', His election has serious effects on
•Auburn also. He is now a member of
sour Board of Trustees, and he will be
-able to name new members to this
group. With proration hurting the
University's budget, will a Republi­can
governor working with a Demo­cratic
Legislaturebe able to turn this
around? It will take work, and lots of
it. Has Auburn ever had a member of
the Board of Trustees that did not
have a college education?
Guy Hunt faces an extremely
tough battle in leading this state for
the next four years. If he is going to
accomplish anything and lead this
state forward during his term as
governor, he is going to have to
smooth some feathers in Mont­gomery
and use that Alabama
drawl to sweet talk his way into the
heart of a lot of Democrats.
And if h e doesn't, it seems as if his
four years will be plagued by inepti­tude
and a refusal to give in. Is he a
lame duck governor right now? If he
does not give the citizens of Ala­bama
anything within the next four
years, and that takes having the
Legislatureon his side, they surely
will not re-elect him in 1990.
And if Guy Hunt fails in the next
four years because he couldn't work
with the Democrats, will it be
another 112 years before we let the
other party have a shot at running
the government of Alabama?
How old will Guy Hunt be in 2098?
Hey Hey Na Na
..-. Ah, fall quarter, the time for every­one
to be on a college campus to
'enjoy the turning of the leaves and
the smell of football in the air.
*° It is a special time at Auburn as
"with any other college — renewed
friendships, the vigor of the cool,
"morning breeze, and the happiness
.that goes with just getting back to
.school for another year.
-n, This University has a way of
ishowing its school spirit and prov­ing
the claim of being the friendliest
"eampus in the country. It is called
Hey Day.
Hey Day, which President James
Martin reintroduced to the Auburn
campus, is a fine idea. Back in the
'50s and early '60s when the event
reached its apex, Hey Day was one
of Auburn's best ways of showing
each other they care.
j Since Hey Day has been reintro­duced
to the Auburn campus it has
been a day in which students were
supposed to get to know each other
and enjoy the friendliness that
Auburn provides.
Some students have not seen fit to
get caught up in the spirit, and
understandably so, but every stu­dent
is supposed to wear name tags
to say the standard greeting to each
other.
If we are to have Hey Day as an
Auburn tradition, then every stu­dent
must get behind the event. It's
the nature of the event to have the
majority of the students participate.
Everybody is supposed to wear a
name tag, but they don't.
Tomorrow is Hey Day. If you're
going to school tomorrow, please
participate. The event shouldn't be
held if you don't.
Tick, lock
This weekend the University
finally fit into their plans the mov­ing
back of the clocks at Samford
Hall. It was about time, since day­light
savings went into effect sev­eral
weeks ago.
The man whose responsibility
this was just retired, and when he
did time just stopped at Auburn.
s..Auburn is an engineering school,
$>ut it can't seem to keep a clock run-
Sling on time. If we are to move
i&head, we first must be able to tell
time correctly. Auburn can spring
forward, and even this is looked
upon as an advancement for
Auburn. But how come we didn't fall
back with the rest of the nation?
Is this University that image con­scious
that it is even afraid to fall
back with the time? Would people
say Auburn had fallen behind?
No matter what anyone says
about Auburn University, we have
fallen back, finally. Will we ever
spring forward?

Hunker down hairy Tigers
Chris
ROUSH
Dear Pat Dye (Georgia '62) and the
Auburn football team,
I try to be as objective as I possibly can
in everything I do, see or hear. That rule
applies for everything. Everything
except for one Saturday in November.
All objectivity goes out the door the week­end
of the Auburn-Georgia football
game.
Pat, I know you went to Georgia for
your undergraduate education and to
play football, and I respect your deci­sion.
But there is just one thing that I
would hate to see on Saturday. That's
the number under Georgia being more
than the number under Auburn on our
new scoreboards.
I usually reserve this space for some­thing
more important to Auburn and the
world, but this is just one of those things.
Auburn beating Georgia in football is as
important to me as breathing (and beer).
I've honestly tried not to hate Georgia.
But a person can only take so much.
Maybe it was because I've sat in the
Georgia student section for both games
at Athens wearing an Auburn
sweatshirt.
Georgia fans never pass up a chance
to needle Auburn. It's because they
aren't confident of themselves and they
need some reassurance by cutting
Auburn down.
Tracy Rocker, you're from Atlanta,
tell them what it's like. All you football
players from Georgia, tell your team­mates
what it's like. You hate those guys
from Georgia and you know how good it
feels to go home for the holidays after
giving the Dogs a whuppin'.
We know what they're doing, just
don't let them in on the secret. When
they begin their abuse, ignore them,
stare at them, say nothing back or walk
away, just don't ever let them get the
best of you.
Show them what dignity and class
means and they'll know — deep down
inside they'll realize that you're above
their level. Georgia fans won't admit
that, especially the rabid (no pun
intended) ones, just don't ever allow one
to think what they're saying bothers
you.
They are obnoxious, and they do know
that. In 1982, when Georgia beat
Auburn 19-14,1 went into my first-period
class in high school (suburban Atlanta)
the next Monday like I always did.
Taped to the wall next to my desk was
one of those signs with the score on it
that you can buy right after the game
and put in your car window.
No, one of my fellow students had not
put it up there. My teacher had.
One of the smartest teachers I've ever
had, but her one flaw is that she's a
Georgia graduate. I endured that kind of
treatment for nine long years living in
Georgia.
Do you know what it's like to have the
dog next door named Dooley after Geor­gia's
coach. To you people from Ala­bama,
it would be like having your
neighbor name his cat Bear and his dog
Bryant.
The next year, when I was a freshman,
Auburn beat Georgia in Athens. That
same teacher was at the game.
I didn't see her then, but the next time
I did, she said she expected me to be
waiting for her at the door to her class­room
Monday morning. I would have
never stooped to their level.
I admit I have a personal grudge
against the University of Georgia. It is
no mere dislike for the red and black, it's
downright hatred. But I would never
outwardly show it in a demeaning
manner. Auburn has more class and
honor.
I've seen obnoxious Auburn fans just
like the ones for Georgia. But being an
Auburn fan, I expected to see more of
them than those for Georgia. It's been
quite the opposite.
Do you know how happy you guys
have made me since I came back here to
go to school three years ago? Auburn
has beaten Georgia Tech (located in
downtown Atlanta) for the last eight
years now, and Georgia for the last
three. This has allowed me to go home
with dignity and my head held high, to
withstand any abuse (they still give it
even if they lose).
If Auburn was to lose Saturday, I
would never be allowed into the Peach
State again. I've led a charmed life since
the day I left Atlanta to come to school.
Don't let it end. Let me be euphoric one
last time.
It won't matter as much next year. I
will have done my four years and gradu­ated,
gone to graduate school at some
other university. But this year, I would
do almost anything to see you beat
Georgia one more time.
I have several Georgia friends coming
down for the weekend and I plan on
showing them one great weekend. The
kegs will be waiting for them at my
apartment tomorrow afternoon. The
only thing Athens can beat us in is the
party atmosphere. Let's keep it that
way.
If you need some inspiration for
Saturday's game, let me tell you this. Do
it not only for the glory of Auburn, but
for all those Auburn students from
Georgia and for all those Auburn fans
trapped in that state who have to listen
to the abuse. Think of how much they
would dearly appreciate Auburn beating
those loud-mouthed Georgia fans.
This is not a big request. It's plain and
simple. Go out there Saturday and make
me happy. And kick the living hell out of
Georgia.
And when the going gets tough,
remember one thing. There will be some
half-crazed Auburn student who remark­ably
resembles myself sitting in the stu­dent
section screaming, "Hunker Down
you Hairy Tigers!"
Larry Munson, eat your heart out.
Sincerely,
Chris Roush, editor
Why did beach ball cause trouble?
Randy
GLAZER
A festive crowd jammed into Jordan-
Hare stadium Nov. 8 to see their Auburn
Tigers battle the University of Cincin­nati
Bearcats. It was the homecoming
game and emotions were high as the
crowd eagerly anticipated a rout.
Midway through the second quarter,
Auburn had gained a 21 point lead and
the student section was ecstatic. It was
at this time that a red and white Kool-
Aid beach ball appeared in the end zone
section near the band. The ball was
being bounced around in the stands.
After about 30 seconds of one section
playing volleyball, the beach ball
started to make its way from one side of
the end zone to another.
The bouncing ball had gotten the
attention of the crowd in the end zone
and everybody was anticipating their
chance at batting the ball to another
spot in the stands. The ball went up the
rows to the walkway and then des­cended
back down to the crowd near the
field.
Three security guards decided to take
interest in the students' game. More pre­cisely,
their immediate goal was termi­nation.
On two separate occasions the
security guards attempted to seize the
ball, but failed. Finally, when the beach
ball reached the other side of the end
zone, it was apprehended by one of the
guards.
The crowd was quite upset about the
ending of their game and started to 'boo'
the guards whose knee-jerked reaction
was to avoid the stairway next to them
and confront the crowd. It was during
this time that the boos gained promi­nence.
As the cheer "get that ball back"
emanated from the crowd the guards
started to feel their power being ques­tioned.
The guard who was holding the
ball suddenly punctured the ball in
retaliation.
Out of nowhere a couple of crushed
paper cups came flying out of the stands.
One of them hit a guard on the top of his
cap and bounced harmlessly to the
ground. The beaned guard then called
reinforcements over his walky-talky on
the grounds of "wreckless harassment."
No more then two minutes elapsed
before five more security guards and an
officer from the Lee County Sheriffs
department arrived on the scene. They
were instantly greeted with a barrage of
crushed paper cups accompanied by a
few streamers.
A few minutes elapsed before the
guards finally singled-out someone who
they were pretty sure had thrown a cup.
They assaulted an Auburn student and
dragged him out of the stands where
they proceeded to escort him out of the
stadium with his arms lodged behind his
back. He was taken to Auburn City Jail
and charged with disorderly conduct.
What I want to know is, what is so
sinister about that beach ball that
necessitated it's removal. Up to that
point nobody had gotten hurt and it
didn't look like it would incite a riot. I am
unaware of any other dangers that
might face a crowd that decides to
bounce a five-ounce beach ball amongst
themselves. But it has no inherent
danger, why did the security guards find
it so important to remove?
Furthermore, why did the security
guards find it necessary to go out of their
way to use the walkway instead of the
stairs which were five feet to their right.'
If the guard wanted to avoid a confron­tation,
they could have exited down the
stairs. It is my contention that they
wanted a face-off because they went at
least 20 yards out of their way - walking
from one end zone corner to the other
where the event started.
The arresting security guard said that
"these incidents happen all the time" at
games. Upon realization that this whole
ordeal transpired from a simple game of
patting a beach ball around, I have no
doubt the guards have used their influ­ence
to escalate a harmless situation
into a police incident before.
The really sad part about all of this is
that these incidents are commonplace to
the guards and they believe they're in
the right. They can't even see how
they're causing most of the problem. It
seems strange that the people who
initiated the conflict are the same ones
who were hired to prevent it.

Freshman speaks out on college life
Amy
DURKEE
'Tis education forms the common mind.
Just as the twig is bent, the tree's
inclined.
—Alexander Pope
Perhaps Pope had the college campus
in mind when he made that statement.
Whether he did, the quote certainly ap­plies
to this advanced realm of educa­tion,
as I have discovered after spending
my first few weeks at Auburn
University.
My perception of college life before
coming to Auburn was clouded by mis­conceptions.
I was daunted by visions of
lengthy homework assignments, the
warnings of my older friends about the
perils of not studying for at least six
hours a day and a wary anticipation of a
hellish existence consisting only of eat­ing,
sleeping and studying.
However, after I came to Auburn and
grew more and more accustomed to its
ambiance, I realized that this vision did
not accurately depict the true essence of
the college experience. While I expected
that the prime focus of any college would
be the impartation of knowledge to the
students, I had not realized the full
extent to which learning was emphas­ized.
Contrary to my expectations of an
unbearable preoccupation with grades
and endless cramming, the real objec­tive
of college concerns not just the
grades but the actual pursuit of knowl­edge
and an increased awareness.
In college the opportunities to increase
knowledge are endless. In the first place,
at no other time in a person's life will he
be as free to learn as in the college years.
A student can dedicate as much time as
he wishes to the expansion of his mind.
Since the student has virtually no other
serious obligations to consider (in most
cases), the bulk of his time may be spent
discovering new answers and exploring
the passageways of his mind, if he so
chooses.
Of course, the key phrase here is "if he
so chooses." An individual must make
the conscious decision for himself
whether to take advantage of the many
opportunities a college environment
offers him. On the surface, college may
seem just a continuation of the learning
process. But when one delves into the
underlying meaning behind advanced
education, he will realize that college
has a deeper, more significant effect.
Everything about a college campus is
geared toward conditioning and prim­ing
the mind. From the well-equipped
libraries to the tranquil outdoor study
areas, from the qualified instructors to
the general atmosphere, the college
campus almost shouts "conducivenss to
learning."
Just as a telescope expands one's field
of vision, a college education expands
the scope of an individual's knowledge
and the ways to apply it. I am not refer­ring
to just "making the grade," but to
increasing awareness in all aspects of
one's life—from the subjects that can
apply to one's life personally to the
information one can use in dealing with
world issues.
This involves much more than mere
studying; it requires the student's actual
realization of an active participation in
his own self-enlightenment process. It
demands that the student recognize the
importance of understanding for the
sake of understanding, and the idea that
with each new concept he grasps,
another door in his quest for wisdom is
opened.
The student who cultivates his mind
and primes it for use outside the college
sphere is the one who will be able to inter­act
with the world around him and con­tinue
to develop his intellect throughout
his life. In contrast, the student who lim­its
himself by focusing on his immediate
studies, his grades or the sheer objective
of graduating and making money ter­minates
the growth of his intellect on the
day he graduates from college.
The primary purpose of a college is to
offer advanced education to students.
However, the student's attitude and his
interpretation of his purpose can make a
tremendous difference in what he gets
out of his college experience. The stu­dent's
realization of the true rationale
behind college and its substantial appli­cation
can make the difference between
another phase of education and a self-actualization
process, between an edu­cated
student and an enlightened
individual.

Undergraduate teaching
is most important role
Paul
PARKS
• • : ' •; '.
As Auburn University's research pro­grams
continue to grow and diversify,
and as our faculty become more involved
in research, questions naturally begin to
arise about the relative importance of
teaching and research in the University.
In my mind, this is a straightforward
issue — the teaching of undergraduates
always will be the single most important
role of Auburn University. I personally
take great pride in Auburn's reputation
for quality undergraduate instruction.
The real question is this: can Auburn
retain this commitment to undergradu­ate
teaching and, at the same time,
become a leading graduate and research
institution? I argue emphatically that
we can.
While some may differ on the empha­sis
we should give to these goals (I would
worry if it were otherwise), I am con­vinced
that we all share the common
belief that the two fundamental respon­sibilities
of a great university are the
transmission of knowledge (teaching
and extension) and the generation of
new knowledge (research). Prominent
universities in this country have been
able to fulfill successfully both respon­sibilities,
and Auburn also can achieve
excellence in both teaching and
research. In fact, given our well-established
undergraduate programs,
we should now give special emphasis to
the establishment of strong graduate
^«nd research programs. This is the
dimension that must be developed if
Auburn is to take its place among the
leading universities in the region and
the nation and, frankly, I believe the
great majority of our faculty share these
aspirations.
Faculty support and involvement are
essential ingredients in the realization
of our goal to become a leading graduate
and research university. Auburn must
have good teachers who also are com­mitted
to the advancement of their dis­ciplines
or professions through research
and other creative endeavors. I am per­suaded
from my years of service as a
member of the Tenure and Promotion
Committee that these dual abilities and
interests coexist comfortably in many of
our fine faculty. I contend that this rela­tionship
benefit our students, because
good teachers who continue their
research or other creative activities will
likely remain current in their fields
throughout their teaching careers.
Finally, we should be reminded why it
is important that universities conduct
research. The discovery of new knowl­edge
and the devlopment of new tech­nology
are important to the long-term
intellectual and economic development
of the state and its citizens. Further­more,
universities are unique among
research organizations in that they pro­duce
not only new knowledge, but also
the new scientists and teachers that give
continuity to science and the many
other creative processes in our society. It
is this special relationship between
research and graduate study that makes
the major research universities national
resources.
Research and teaching are not com­petitors
in the academic environment.
Quality research endeavors can and
should complement excellence in
instruction. Together they are essential
characteristics of a great university.

research.

Ward receives teaching kudos
Editor, The Plainsman:
Bravo to Associate Professor Char­lotte
Ward for her comments in the Oct.
30 issue of The Plainsman on teaching
versus research!
The number one priority of an institu­tion
of higher education should be to
educate.
While it may gain recognition for the
University and possibly benefit society
in the long run when the knowledge and
expertise of professors is applied to
research, the greatest responsibility of
holding a faculty position should be to
teach students. Research should be
viewed as a means of enhancing a pro­fessor's
value as a teacher.
Obviously, Auburn has faculty
members for whom this is not the case.
As observed by a recent Plainsman edi­torial,
some seem to view students as
nothing more than a nuisance, hinder­ing
their research. Furthermore, I have
encountered several instructors who,
due to their lack of proficiency in Eng­lish,
cannot possibly impart much of
their knowledge to the average student.
Yet, they are well qualified academi­cally,
and I suspect they gained faculty
status based solely on their research
capabilities.
Moreover, it has been my observation,
since coming to Auburn a year ago, that
the University seems to exist, as much
as anything, for its own glorification. It
appears that community and junior col­leges
have been given the mission of
doing the real teaching, especially of
employment skills, while the University
has become some sort of ivory tower
gathering place for the intellectually
and athletically gifted. This leaves the
average students on the sidelines to
serve as a cheering section (both figura­tively
and literally).
I, for one, am grateful to those faculty
members who seek to challenge us to
learn from them and to go away from
their classes with more than we brought.
These are the ones the University needs
to recruit and to keep.

Greeks deny student seating
Editor, The Plainsman:
Saturday I was denied a seat in the
stadium. Why? Because my ticket was
for a seat in a section reserved by a fra­ternity!
Who gave them the right to
mark off a block of seats exclusively for
themselves? If the University did, then
why did they sell those seats to other
people? I couldn't sit anywhere else,
since most of the seats in the student
section were already taken. The ticket
office would not refund my money.
What gives the fraternities the right to
take away other people's seats? If they
all want to sit together, then they should
go to the ticket office at the beginning of
the season and buy a block of seats for
themselves so they won't be bothered by
Gosh! I just
hate to see
human rights
violations...
the students who merely want to watch
the game.
If the Greek societies think they are
too good to sit with other ordinary stu­dents,
then maybe they should be abol­ished.
This type of elitism and snobbery
has no place on a publicly-funded
University!
For that matter, it has no place in
what is supposed to be an academic
institution! These people go to the game
to be seen. I want to watch the football
team play. Guess who got the short end
of the stick? If you are tired of the frater­nities
and sororities controlling so many
things on campus, then please speak up!

Reform of existing laws needed
Editor, The Plainsman:
I wake up some mornings and ask
. myself — where is the United States I
was taught to love and believe in as a
child? What has happened to the United
States?
What I am speaking about is the drug
problem in America. Are you aware of
that problem? The problem is that there
are thousands of people arrested yearly
for the use or possession of marijuana.
The problem is that there are billions of
dollars spent yearly to persecute and
imprison these people. The problem is
that this is not the land of the free.
President Ronald Reagan has a cure
for these problems. He has signed into
law the biggest anti-drug program ever
passed by Congress. He wants to spend
billions of dollars to make this country
drug-free.
Now, I suppose if you spent billions of
dollars this might be done. Prohibition-ary
history and the economic law of
supply and demand would argue other­wise.
The real question here is how much
this war on drugs will cost our citizens in
terms of freedom and individual rights.
Is Reagan's drug war propaganda?
And if so how much will the giant
Republican re-election campaign cost
the taxpayers? I for one am not prepared
to spend billions of dollars on a hopeless
campaign that's only hope of success
would be a massive reduction of the per­sonal
liberty and freedom of our citizens.
I think that money could probably be
spent on better things, things we would
be proud to tell out children about: like
feeding the hungry children, like devel­oping
some useful programs to help the
American farmer.
Maybe we could dump a couple of bil­lion
dollars in our education system and
see what happens. There are many
things that money could do that are far
more important than a war on freedom.
I can't stress how much the word
"good" means to me. I am upset about
our problem because I have seen good
people imprisoned here in America. I
thought the Soviet Union was into that,
not the United States.
I don't claim to have any solutions,
and I'm not asking for drugs to be legal­ized.
I am asking for a reform of existing
laws. I'm asking for some reasonable
Article includes generalizations
Editor, The Plainsman:
I would like to point out some broad
generalizations, misinformation and
statements promoting negative feelings
towards lesbians in your Nov. 6 issue's
article, "Homosexual denies myth about
lesbianism" by Donette Perkins. First, I
would like to thank your for the expo­sure,
which is better than being ignored.
Your article implies that fitting into
the stereotype of feminine, being inter­ested
in new makeups and fashions, and
being attractive to men too is the differ­ence
between a socially acceptable les­bian
and an unacceptable one. Some of
us are happy and comfortable without a
"feminine facade" and don't care to live
by society's standards of womanhood.
Lesbian relationships are not parallel
to straight ones. We can rarely hold
hands or dance together in public. We
cannot share our happiness about the
relationship with everyone we would
like to. We do not yet have the legal right
to be married and enjoy the financial
and social benefits given married
couples.
This leads me to Cathy's statement
that, "10 years ago a homosexual rela­tionship
would not last for long." Cathy
does not know her own history. Long-term
lesbian relationships have been
happily going since Sappho's time
before Christ was born. In 19th century
America, it was called a "Boston Mar­riage."
Remember the "spinster" and her
close friend who lived with her for 50
years?
A lot of people in Auburn aren't
accepting us and they're not being pas­sive
about it because they think gay
people are afraid to report harassment.
One friend of mine who has been a good
employee at an establishment for almost
two years is feeling physically threat­ened
by a much larger, homophobic, new
employee who happened to hear that my
friend is gay. Other friends of mine are
enduring verbal harassment at their
apartments.
There is one difference about these
instances which shows there is some
improvement in society's views. My one
friend is confident that the person who
can't get along with co-workers will be
fired if she cannot learn to do so, and the
other friends, secure in their right to live
where they are, are merely amused by
the ingorant terminology thrown at
them as an attempt to insult.
Finally, Alice's statement (not quoted)
that she hopes to meet a man with whom
she would like to have a family makes
lesbians seem misguided women who
haven't found the right man to found the
nuclear family with. You failed to men­tion
adoption and artificial insemina­tion,
alternatives which most lesbians
who want a child consider first.

Will Hunt
election make
any difference?
Editor, The Plainsman:
First let me congratulate Guy Hunt on
his victory. I'm sure he is enjoying the
fruits of his success at the moment.
The Republicans obviously thought
they were throwing a sacrifical candi­date
to the Democrats, but as the cam­paign
progressed, their nominee, Hunt,
suddenly became a contender. You can
bet your life that if the Republican Party
had even seen a ray of hope, Emory
Folmer would surely have pursued the
nomination (not that our state would be
in any better shape).
Two years will tell for Hunt. By then
the confused Democrats who put him in
office will come out of their daze and see
what they have done.
Obviously, the boost that Hunt needed
was the confusion within the Demo­cratic
Party over the decision of the
panel of judges to award Bill Baxley the
nomination after Charlie Graddick had
seemingly won it. This caused great
mayhem within the Democratic ranks
with only Graddick to blame. He broke
the law blatantly using his office as
attorney general to foster support for his
campaign.
The media then did a very weak job of
informing the public of what really went
on within Graddick's campaign and the
panel of judges' decision. This in turn
made many people become resentful of
the Democratic Party, causing would-be
Democrats to vote against Bill Baxley,
not for Guy Hunt.
Our state has now become a two-party
state due to the confusion of would-be
Democrats. A two-party system was
needed, but not in the manner that is
was formed.
The one positive outcome from the
1986 governor's race is that the Demo­crats
now know who their true support­ers
are. The hangers-on like George
McMillan and Charlie Graddick have
been exposed. Seventy-five percent of
the Democrats who voted for Hunt will
return by the 1990 election to Demo­cratic
status. That 75 percent along with
the Democrats who stuck with Baxley
will reunite the Democratic Party. It
may be 112 more years until Alabama
sees another Republican governor.
A. Lee White '82 Pedestrians, bicyclists are problems
Editor, The Plainsman:
Have you ever tried to drive down
Thach Avenue when classes let out? It's
worse than driving through downtown
Auburn on Friday afternoon! And,
frankly, we're disgusted with it.
There are two problems that need to be
dealt with: bicyclists and pedestrians.
First, the bicyclists. Granted, cars are
expensive and bicycles may be the only
mode of transportation available to
some students. And, granted the bicy­cles
are registered, just like the cars.
Example: red lights. On many occas-sions,
we have witnessed bicyclists ride
through red lights, disregarding any on­coming
traffic (Come on, we know you're
not all color blind). Also, the white line
in the middle of the road does not indi­cate
an obstacle course. They are not
made to weave in and out of. If automo­bile
drivers did this, they would be
picked up for a DUI!!
What is done to bicyclists? Nothing
that we've seen, although we have heard
that they are being ticketed (hearsay).
If a bicyclist hits a car, nothing
happens (unless the cyclist is hurt). But,
if a car hits a bicyclist, it's all the car
driver's fault, in the eyes of the law.
What about the rights of automobile
drivers? Our rights are fully violated by
these bicyclists. We are at their mercy on
the roads, for our own protection.
It seems as though we have only two
alternatives to deal with this dangerous
problem: build bicycle lanes on all roads
that are heavily congested, or hit them.
The latter seems ridiculous, but feasible.
Second, the pedestrian problem. We
realize that it is the law that pedestrians,
in the crosswalk, have the right-of-way.
But, our problem is that pedestrians take
advantage of this privilege. We drivers
have enough courtesy to stop for you;
please, if you're a solo pedestrian, have
enough courtesy not to back up traffic
just for yourself.
Didn't your mothers teach you to look f
both ways before crossing? For those of
you who refuse to use the crosswalks,
you DO NOT have the right of way. You
must trust strangers very much to just
walk out in front of a car without look-"
ing, expecting the.driver to stop for you,
and then, cuss us, or make crude ges­tures
at us because we won't stop for you.
If you want a little courtesy, you've got
to give a little courtesy. Don't expect the
world to stop for you — keep you eyes
and ears open. It may just save your life
one day.

Letter writers'judgment not correct
Editor, The Plainsman:
In response to the letter by four
members of the Great Commission
Church (Plainsman, Nov. 6) about Dr.
Delos McKown of the philsophy
department, I would like to make a few
comments.
The authors pass judgment on
McKown's views as being "delusions of
one man" which should be "considered
truths for others." Firstly, I will point
out that McKown is not the only person
around who holds atheistic beliefs.
There are several atheists in the Auburn
area, myself among them. Also, in order
to assess the validity of these students'
ability to judge matters such as atheism
rationally and dismiss them as "delu­sions,"
let us take an objective look at
what the Great Commission Church
calls "truth."
I take these examples from the
church's own "Position Papers," badly-written
statements of the church's doc­trines
which one occassionally finds lit­tering
the bulletin boards of various
buildings on campus. Paper #101 says
that those who have "immortality with
the opposite sex" will eventually begin
to "dabble in the area of homosexual­ity,"
which will lead to "third-level beast-iality
(sic)." The incorrect spelling is
unfortunately typical of these papers.
The more important point is that this
blatently obvious falsehood, presented
as fact without a shred of supporting
documentation, is being offered up as
"truth" by the Great Commission
Church.
Paper #102 says that "the fact that
Jesus Christ dies (sic) on the cross is the
proof of God's incredible love for you."
Christ's death proves nothing except
that he was obviously perceived as a po­litical
threat by the government, which
accordingly executed him as a common
criminal, using a form of execution
which was routinely employed for cen­turies
before and after the death of
Jesus.
Thousands of criminals were executed
in this manner, and that alone confers
no divine status on them. The point, of
course, is not the manner of Jesus'
death, but the event itself, which sup­posedly
shows that some all-powerful
and all-knowing supreme being loves
mankind above all other life forms in the
universe. That absurdity is a subject for
another letter.
Paper #103 states that "once a person
begins a life of sexual immorality, they
quickly lose interest in spiritual mat­ters."
Infantile grammar aside, this
statement actually makes a measure of
sense, but one wonders where this sect
gets the authority to judge just what is
sexually immoral. This insistence on
imposing absolutist moral standards on
society at large is a characteristic trait of
"benevolent" Christian organizations.
Christianity has a long history of
opposing the statements of those who
offer objective analysis of its questiona­ble
validity, and of silencing through
intimidation and murder those who
point out facts which threaten the
"truth" they claim as divinely inspired.
Witness the actions of Christian author­ities
when dealing with such heretics as
Galileo, Vesalius and Goirdano Bruno;
the enlightened attitude of Martin
Luther in declaring reason to be "the
devil's bride, " a "beautiful whore" and
"God's enemy" (Source: Atheism: The
Case Against God, George H. Smith,
Prometheus Books, available at the
library); the actions of the early coloniz­ers
ofthis country, who would cheerfully
execute one for committing the heinous
crime of failing to attend church on
Sunday; the endorsement of slavery as a
Bible-blessed institution by Southern
religious leaders in the pre-Civil War
era; and most recently, the violent bomb­ings
of abortion clinics by some contem­porary,
benevolent brothers in Christ.
Members of the Great Commission
Church and other Christian sects can
therefore be proud of their long heritage
of persecution of free thought and per­sonal
liberty, a heritage that is exposed
and propogated every time a Christian
declares that his belief alone is the only
truth and that people who happen to
hold other beliefs, such as McKown and
myself, are "deluded."

Silence not golden for victims of tinnitus
By Susan Lewis
Staff Writer
Many people experience that
annoying ringing sensation in
their ears after a rock concert,
Waiting at the airport or a day of
h u n t i n g . The noise seems
unbearable at first, but after a
couple of hours it is usually
forgotten.
Yet, for some the ringing never
stops.
"If you experience a ringing
after exposure to loud noise, then
it is enough noise to cause hear­ing
damage," says Sandra R.
Clark, clinical instructor of
communication disorders at
Auburn University. "Ninety per­cent
of people hear a ringing, but
people don't come in unless they
are really bothered by it."
Buzzing, hissing, blowing or
roaring in the ears characterize a
condition called tinnitus. The
Public Health Agency estimates
that 36 million Americans have
tinnitus in some form.
The disease, most prevalent in
people over 40, is difficult to
diagnose and impossible to treat,
Clark says.
Therapists in the communica­tion
disorders clinic treat 10-12
Auburn residents for severe tin­nitus.
However, Clark says most
people admit hearing a ringing,
and some hear it all the time.
"Doctors tell you to learn to live
with it, but they don't tell you
how," says Gerry Austin, a
Montgomery resident who has
suffered from tinnitus for three
years.
"I got it stopped today," she
says. "I ran the Weed Eater for a
couple of hours," using the noise
to mask the sounds she hears
constantly in her ears. "Some­times
it lasts all day. x
"It's a constant torture. You
become a prisoner to your body,"
Austin, 48, says. "You begin to
get suicidal, then you have to
realize that it will stop."
However, doctors have not
been able to develop a method to
stop the sounds. In addition, a
concensus cannot be reached on
the cause of tinnitus.
The most common cause is
excessive environmental or
industrial noise. Fifty-five per­cent
of severe tinnitus patients
admit being exposed to extremely
loud noise without protection.
Also associated with tinnitus is
Meniere's disease, Clark says.
Symptoms of this disease include
ringing in the ears, some hearing
loss and attacks of dizziness,
referred to as vertigo.
Head injuries can also cause
tinnitus. A blow to the head, whip­lash
or concussion may cause tin­nitus,
but it may be days or weeks
later before symptoms appear.
When taken in excessive
amounts, many foods and drugs
may contribute to tinnitus. Alco­hol,
nicotine, salt, caffeine, cocoa,
bitter chocolate, aspirin, birth
control pills and marijuana are
all thought to aggravate this
condition.
Another possible cause of tin­nitus
is hardened wax in the ear.
In addition, some cases have
been associated with damage to
tissues involved in hearing,
changes in blood supply, tumors
in the middle ear and infections
or inflammation of the inner ear.
"It's my sinuses," Austin says.
"I've had problems with my sin­uses
that keep my ears all blocked
up." Austin also says inheritance
is a factor in contracting tinnitus.
Some physicans say the noise
will be louder when the patient is
nervous, tense or fatigued and
when the environment is espe­cially
quiet.
Going to sleep can be a real
problem. Many nights the noise
is so "all-consuming" Austin
says she is unable to sleep. The
only relief she has found is to turn
an FM radio between stations so
all that is heard is static. The
static must be loud enough to
block any other sounds, includ­ing
the ringing in her ears.
The idea is to find the right
pitch that will block the head-noise,
Clark says.
Austin's noise is on a high
pitch frequency. Although she
experiences some hearing loss,
the pitch is so high it does not
usually affect normal conversa­tion.
Tinnitus can be categorized
according to severity. Mild tinni-
Christmas near: Buy a book for Ralph
By Pam Hartley
Staff Writer
Student organizations at
Auburn are being asked to
B YOB, but this time no alcohol is
involved.
, In an attempt to help the
library, which has been hard hit
by spending cuts, a "Books For
Ralph" campaign has been
started and is stressing "Buy
Your Own Book."
Every student group on cam­pus,
including Greeks, service
o r g a n i z a t i o n s , professional
organizations, clubs and honor-aries
are being asked to contrib­ute
either books or the money to
purchase books for the library.
ODK is one of the organiza­tions
behind the project. Other
groups involved include Mortar
Board, SGA, IFC, Lambda
Sigma, Talons and Panhellenic.
"Auburn is often criticized for
the lack of an adequate library.
This project will send a message
to the faculty that we're con­cerned
about the reputation of
Auburn, and we're trying to do
our part," David McCalman, who
is in charge of the project, said.
Every organization on campus
will be sent a letter which will
include a list of books which
faculty or students have asked
for that the library doesn't have.
Prices of books on the list will
vary, so the amount each organi­zation
spends will be up to the
group.
Students will be able to see the
result of their group's contribu­tions
to the library by a sticker on
the inside cover that will identify
it with the organization that
donated the book.
tus is noticed only in quiet places
or at bedtime. The patient can
easily be distracted by other
stimuli.
Moderate tinnitus is more
intense in quiet surroundings,
but is constantly present. The
patient is aware of headnoise
when trying to concentrate or
sleep.
Finally, severe tinnitus is
extremely debilitating. The
patient can concentrate on little
other than the headnoise.
"I can't concentrate when it's
real bad. It makes me tense and
irritable," Austin says. "It's hard
to explain. I just have to get some
relief."
Austin says medicine only
worsens her condition. "Running
water seems to help the most.
Even the sound of mosquitoes
covers it up."

Club visualizes j
invisible disability
By Piper Lowell
Staff Writer
To the strains of Whitney
Houston's popular ballad, "The
Greatest Love of All," Signs of
Auburn conveys the beauty of
music to the deaf; a beauty that
the hearing world sometimes
takes for granted.
Signs of Auburn is a 23-
member sign language club that
has been at Auburn for five years.
It signs songs for churches and
workshops, and provides enter­tainment
at conferences.
The group does not interpret
often, but club leader Laura
Rohmer, an Auburn graduate
student, points out that the songs
are challenging enough. "Try to
translate the concepts in 'The
Glory of Love'(by Chicago's lead
singer Peter Cetera)in any
language."
Barry Stephens, a professor in
Rehabilitation and Special Edu­cation,
stresses the difficulty in
translating. "You must concep­tualize
what's going on in the
song," he said. "A deaf person
cannot tell a story, so he must
become his story to communicate
his point."
Signs of Auburn does not con­sider
itself an entertainment
group, but instead an awareness
group. They want people to know'
that sign language is not manual
English, but a language with its
own style and rules for grammar;
Sign langauge, like the Chi­nese
language, evolved from a
picture or a concept being the
basis for the word. "A problem
with the history of sign language
is that nothing is written down.
It's in the air, and then it's gone,"
Stephens said.
"American sign language has
been around since there have
been deaf Americans," Stephens
said, "but it didn't catch the pub­lic
eye until the mid 1800s when
schools for the blind and deaf
began to open."
Americans often overlook
deafness because it is not an
obvious handicap. Stephens ref­ers
to it as an "invisible disabil­ity"
because language is usually
the only clue of a handicap.
Why do members join Signs of
Auburn? "To help bridge the gap
between the hearing and the
deaf, and for the fun," Rohmer
said. "Also, someday I will work
with deaf people, and it's a great
way to improve my skill." Or as
Stephens mentioned, "we try to
help visualize an invisible
disability."

uonKey jroio uuy m»uc puooiuic ^., * » * - * „v~»- - Summer alternative:Science research
By Linn Thomas
Staff Writer
Believe it or not, but now, the
late-middle of fall quarter, is a
good time to begin thinking
about what to do next summer.
There are more opportunities for
college students during those
Vacation months than being a
fast-food cook, a beach bum or a
couch potato.
The Department of Energy
offers one alternative in the form
of its Student Research Partici­pation
program for college
seniors majoring in science,
mathematics or engineering. Dr.
Paul F. Parks, Auburn's vice
president for research, said, "I'd
like to encourage more Auburn
students to apply."
"Since 1977, we've had nine
(students) apply and six have
been awarded" the position.
Parks said.
Karen C. Davis and Karen E.
Green, two Auburn seniors, made
the effort and worked 10 weeks
this past summer in the program
which is carried out by Oak Ridge
Associated Universities.
Davis, a physics major from
Jacksonville, spent her time in
the office responsible for health
protection and waste manage­ment
at the Savannah River
Laboratory in Aiken, S.C., "keep­ing
track of personnel records
and how much radiation ex­posure
people had."
Green, an industrial engineer­ing
major from Linden, worked at
the Oak Ridge Laboratory in Oak
Ridge, Tenn., in the Enviromen-tal
and Industrial Safety Div­ision.
She said, "I was basically
learning as I went along with
them (the industrial safety engi­neers
at Oak Ridge)" in visiting
each division of the huge complex
to insure that all research was
conducted safely.
"I got to see the whole plant,"
which is responsible for, among
other things, developing medical
isotopes, new alloys for the space
program and nuclear reactors to
be used in space in conjunction
with the Strategic Defense Initia­tive,
Green said.
Both students were paid $200
per week by Oak Ridge Associ­ated
Universities with money
from a Department of Energy
grant. They each felt that their
summer involved in the program
was worthwhile and that the
government money being spent
is for a good cause. Davis said, "It
gives students a chance to see
what the real world is like."
"It was the first time I was out
working in the real world," Green
said. She felt that the tax-payers
dollars were being well-spent
because "you've got to get the
people interested in research."
"Working in a research facility
was very different from working
in a production facility," Green
said. "All my classes have been
geared toward production."
Both Davis and Green found
out about the program from fliers
placed on bulletin boards around
campus during winter quarter.
Of the more than 200 appli­cants
for Student Research Par­ticipation
from colleges all over
the nation, only 74 students were
chosen to work at the approxi­mately
10 DOE research facilities
involved in the ORAU's pro­gram,
Green said.

Timber given to school
By Laura C. Barnwell
Staff Writer
The School of Forestry has
been allocated 5,000 acres of tim-berland
because of a $2.9 million
gift to the Auburn Generations
Fund from Mr. and Mrs. Solon
Dixon of Andalusia.
Located in the heart of Ala­bama's
timber industry in
Escambia and Covington coun­ties,
the land has been "ear­marked
for the School of Fore­stry"
according to Dr. Emmett F.
Thompson, dean of the School of
Forestry.
The land is the latest gift to the
School of Forestry from Dixon, a
1926 Auburn graduate. In 1978
Dixon gave 390 acres and
$500,000 to build the Solon Dixon
Forestry Education Center. At
that time, Dixop's gift was the
largest ever given to the Univer­sity
by a living person.
The 5,000 acres, which sur­rounds
the center, was pledged by
Dixon in 1978, but he said it "took
longer than I figured on" because
the deed "must be accurate."
According to Dixon, the land
has "been in the family since the
beginning." The Dixon family
was deeded the land by the state.
Dixon also said "if the University
decides to part with the land" the
Dixons must be given first prior­ity
to purchase the land.
Thompson said the land will be
used for "educational demonstra­tions"
and "any revenues will
support the center."
