The ideas behind a bill pre-filed
to the Legislature by Sen. Ted
Little of Auburn, which would
offset future prorations, have re­ceived
generally favorable re­sponse
by Auburn University ad­ministrators,
faculty and members
of the Legislature.
Little's bill calls for a re-building
of educational reserves by appro­priating
only 95 percent of total
projected revenue for state-wide
education and placing the unappro­priated
5 percent in the state's
reserve fund.
It also calls for more accurate
state revenue forecasts on which to
base allocations through the esta­blishment
of a Revenue Forecast
Control Commission. This com­mission
would submit one figure to
the Legislature rather than the
three which have been submitted
by separate agencies in the past.
Vice President of Academic
Affairs Taylor Littleton said that
although he has not read the bill, he
is "all for whatever the state, in it's
wisdom, can do to stop proration. I
don't know if this (Little's bill) is
the best way, but I'm glad that
someone is trying."
Concerning the placement of 5
percent in the state's reserve fund,
Littleton commented, "It would be
difficult for us to give up any
money. We're operating on a bare-bones
budget as it is."
President Hanly Funderburk has
also said he supports the ideas in
the bill, but doubts the practicality
of it at this time. He has also said
he thinks it will be difficult to fund
K education flrttb the 5 percent taken
out.
Head of Auburn's economics de­partment,
Dr. Robert F. Hebert,
who was reluctant to comment on
the bill without reading it, said any
decreased funding "would erode
the quality of what we're got. Any
further cutbacks would be hard to
assimilate."
However, in regard to the esta­blishment
of a Revenue Forecast
Control Commission as a provision
of Little's bill, Hebert said, "I'm
not being critical of those who've
done it (made revenue forecasts)
in the past, but something does
need to be done in the accuracy of
revenue forecast, as there seem to
have been some misses."
Auburn's head of the English
department, Dr. Bert Hitchcock
said that Little's bill "may be a
necessary thing under the realities.
A lot of us (faculty) are concerned
about the source of income for the
University." He suggested there
might be a need to go to more
stable sources of income, such as
increased property taxes.
However, Dr. Earl Smith, asso­ciate
professor of educational
media and president of the Auburn
chapter of the Alabama Education
Association, is opposed to Little's
bill because "in general I am
opposed to a reduction of alloca­tions."
He emphasized that he was
speaking on a personal basis rather
than as a representative of all
members of AEA.

Trustees may discuss
contract of Barfield
By Scott Thurston
Editor
The Auburn board of trustees
may discuss the renewal of head
football coach Doug Barfield's con­tract
at its meeting Friday, accord­ing
to a report in Wednesdays
Birmingham News.
Trustee Charles M. Smith III of
Montgomery told the News he will
press for discussion of the matter
either at the board's full meeting
Friday afternoon or at the meeting
of the Athletic Committee of the
board Friday morning.
Although Smith told the News he
didn't think'the matter is yet on the
board's agenda, he said he has
written a letter asking that discus­sion
of Barfield's contract be in­cluded.
Smith, an outspoken critic of
Barfield, said he does not know
how other board members feel
about the situation. "The feeling I
receive from other board members
is that it be put off until after
recruiting," Smith told the News.
"But I don't see how it will affect
recruiting. But that's just my
opinion.
Congressman Bill Nichols, a trus­tee
who also serves on the Athletic
Committee, told the News he feels
"certain it (Barfield's contract
renewal) will be on the agenda
during the meeting Friday."
As of Wednesday afternoon, the
subject of Barfield's contract re­newal
was not on the tentative
agenda, according toasecretary in
the president's office.
Friday's board meeting will
begin at 2 p.m. in room 213 of the
Foy Union.

Fire Department starts
new policy of response
Students key for Reagan, Denton in county
By Scott Thurston
Editor
By a slightly less than two to one
margin, Auburn student voters
mirrored the national mood Tues­day,
aiding Republican Ronald
Reagan to a surprisingly sub­stantial
victory over incumbent
Jimmy Carter in the presidential
election.
By JoBeth McDaniel
Assistant News Editor
The Auburn Fire Department
sent only one fire truck to the scene
of the fire at the new University
apartments Saturday night, and
because of the rash of false fire
alarms coming from the complex,
it will now be fire department
policy to send only one truck when
an alarm is received from the
complex, Auburn Fire Chief Ellis
Mitchell said.
"All three fire trucks usually
respond to an alarm, but it has
been policy of the department to
send only one truck to places where
there has been a high frequency of
false alarms," Mitchell said. "In
the past we have even refused to
answer calls from places with a
history of false alarms, like some
fraternity houses here at Auburn.
Of course, this is a temporary
policy we drop when the false
alarms die out."
Mitchell said this policy did not
interfere with the extinguishing of
the recent fire at the new apart­ments
because it was a smaller
fire, and also because the other two
trucks were called to the scene
when the firemen saw that it was
not just another false alarm.
Mitchell said he did not know the
actual cost of sending the trucks in
response to a fire alarm, but said
the "biggest cost is to any people in
town needing our services" when
the trucks are responding to false
alarms.
"We have had four instances
since September of our men being
late responding to real fires be­cause
they were at the new apart­ments
on a false alarm call,"
Mitchell said. "People have to
realize that false alarms are not a
joke. We are endangering people's
lives just because some prankster
wants to see us drive up with the
flashing red lights and sirens on."
"False alarms not only hurt the
people who have real fires in their
homes, they also put many people's
lives in danger," he said. "Other
people on the streets are in danger
when the fire trucks go through
town to respond to a fire."
The fire department has re­ceived
about 15 false alarms from
the new apartments since Sep­tember.
Three students have been
arrested and charged with setting
off a false alarm. The maximum
penalty for this misdemeanor is a
year in prison or $1,000.

While Reagan mopped up across
the country and in the South in
particular, returns from the two
Auburn polling places where most
students voted showed the Cali-fornian
outpolling Carter, 2,788 to
1,508. Independent candidate John
Anderson got 216 votes at the
student voting boxes, and Liber­tarian
Ed Clark received 111.
The heavy student vote for Rea­gan
appears to have been a de­ciding
factor in the president-.
elect's narrow win in Lee County
where voters registered 10,736
votes for Reagan and 9,384 for
Carter. It was the second time in as
many elections that Georgia's na­tive
son failed to carry Lee County.
Gerald Ford won here in 1976.
Student votes also aided Adm.
Jeremiah Denton in his narrow win
over his Democratic opponent, Jim
Folsom Jr. In one of the most
closely watched of the nation's
senatorial races, Denton was de­clared
a winner about midnight
Tuesday when it became apparent
he would hold onto a 2 percent lead
over Folsom.
The former prisoner of war
received more votes than any other
candidate at the student voting
boxes, outpolling Folsom 3,056 to
1,239.
Denton's victory, was one of
many for Republican senatorial
candidates Tuesday, as the GOP
made a strong bid to unseat Demo­crats
as the majority party in the
U.S. Senate. Several senior Demo­crats,
including Georgia's Herman
Talmadge, were defeated by Re­publican
challengers.
Denton will fill the Senate seat
vacated by Democrat Don Stewart,
who was defeated in the primary
by Folsom. Denton is the first
Republican in 112 years to be
elected to one of Alabama's Senate
seats.
While the student vote may have
helped push Reagan and Denton
over the top in Lee County, it did
little to aid the Republican can­didate
for the presidency of the
Public Service Commission, Gor­don
Tucker. Tucker outpolled
Democrat Billy Joe Camp at the
student boxes, but was over­whelmed
by nearly 200,000 votes in
statewide returns.
Many students stood in voting
lines for as long as two hours
Tuesday, and were part of an
estimated 70 percent turnout in Lee
County. Lee County Probate Judge
Hal Smith said the high turnout
constitutes "some kind of record
for the county.
"Generally our big turnouts are
for the gubernatorial races,
Smith said, "but the presidentia
election drew them out this time
In the only contested congres
sional races in Alabama, Repub

Court, Associate Justice Reneau P

Republicans filled Stoker's hotel
Tuesday night with shouting and
demonstrations as the results from
the presidential and senatorial
races began to pile up in their
favor.
Louder and louder cheers came
from the partisan audience, which
was made up of a majority of
Auburn University students, as
more states fell in the Republican
category.
Jeff Angermann, president of the
Auburn chapter of College
Republicans, admitted he was
"surprised" by the amount by
which Reagan won the race. He
attributed the victory to the "split­ting
of the blue collar vote" and the
hostage situation, "which seems to
have backfired against the presi­dent."
Angermann said he felt Auburn
students had played a major role in
victory in Lee County. "The county
was running neck and neck until
the Auburn boxes came in,"
Angermann said. "We carried the
student boxes heavily," he added.
Winston Smith T, chairman of
the Lee County Republican Party,
said he felt the Lee County win for
Regan was simply "just part of the
national trend."
Smith T called the Auburn stu­dents
"one of the strongest Repub­lican
constituencies in the county,"
and said he was not surprised they
went heavily for Reagan.
Dr. Joseph Kicklighter, profes­sor
of history at Auburn and
faculty advisor to the College
Republicans, admitted that al­though
"we expected to win be­cause
of the latest Lous Harris
Poll," he was none-the-less sur­prized
by the size of the win.
"The victory was not limited to
any area or region of the country,"
Kicklighter noted. "I don't think
the traditional bases of Democratic
support stood up for the presi­dent."
Kicklighter also had praise for
the work of Auburn students on
behalf of Reagan. "We have never
seen the students of Auburn
University come out in support of a
candidate like this," he said.
The margin of victory in Lee
County "has at least in part been
due to what the students of the
University have done," he added

Fall schedule change considered
By Karen Hartley
Assistant News Editor
A proposal to change the fall
calendar dates for 1981 that would
end the quarter before Thanks­giving
holidays is now being con­sidered
by the faculty senate.
The proposal, submitted to the
faculty senate by the registrar and
supported by the Student Govern­ment
Association, would include
the following dates: drop and add
would begin Sept. 10 and finals
would run from Nov. 20-24. This
change would only affect fall
quarter.
Crystal Kelley, chairman of the
faculty calendar committee, said,
"We've been asked to consider the
proposal and investigate the pro's
and con's and make a report to the
student senate Nov. 18.
The faculty will be polled to find
out whether the proposed arrange­ment
will suit the needs of the
majority of them.
The major effect would be to
shorten the summer, she said. "We
would be going from a system of
two short breaks and two rather
long ones to a two week break over
summer and a very longbreakover
Christmas."
One advantage to this would be
that students would have the oppor­tunity
to work longer over the
Christmas break. It would also
allow for more time for faculty
members to do writing and re­search.
The new schedule might allow
students who travel long distances
to spend Thanksgiving home when
they ordinarily would not have
traveled the distance for a few
days.
It would also eliminate the break
that would otherwise interrupt
academic studies.
Beginning the quarter earlier
would also enable students to pur­chase
Tennessee game tickets at
the student prices. Since student
schedules are not distributed at the
time of the Tennessee game, all
fans must pay the guest price,
whether they are students or not.
One of the disadvantages is that
some faculty members take their
vacations in September and they
would be forced to return early to
begin school.
Also, 600-700 veterans who are
receiving benefits must re-apply if World this Week

IRANIANS CELEBRATE ANNIVERSARY OF
HOSTAGE CAPTURE-As
the American hostages in Iran began a second year
in captivity, tens of thousands of Iranians rallied at
the U.S. embassy in Tehran Tuesday, marking the
anniversary of the capture with demonstrations that
witnesses said were the biggest since the earliest days
of the crisis. Demonstrators shouted "Death to
American Imperialism" and burned effigies of
President Carter. Conditions advanced by the Iran­ians
for the release of the hostages include a U.S.
pledge not to interfere in Iran's internal affairs, return
of billions of dollars of Iranian assets frozen by the
United States, the dropping of all legal claims against
Iran, and the return of a fortune allegedly amassed by
the late Shah Mohammed Reza Palavi. U.S. officials
have said the conditions will be studied carefully
before a response is made and warn against
expectations of a quick solution.
IRAN/(IRAQ WAR CONTINUES
The war between Iraq and Iran progressed into its
seventh week with few signs that the end of the
fighting is near. Iraqi troops have seized control of
Khorramshahr on the Shatt al Arab waterway, and
have shelled the besieged refinery city of Abadan with
artillery and tank fire. An outcrop of alliances and
rivalries have formed as a result of the battlefield
destruction. Saudi Arabia, Jordan and the conserva­tive
oil sheikdoms of the Gulf have aligned themselves
with radically socialist Iraq; Libya and Syria, which
have predominantly Sunni Muslim populations have
sided with Iran, a non-Arab nation of Shi'ite Muslims.

they are absent from school for
more than 30 days.
"That's not an Insurmountable
obstacle," Kelley said, suggesting
that they might be able to apply for
exemption.
Another disadvantage is that
faculty members and students who
have summer employment else­where
would have to cut it short to
return to school.
There would also be a problem
with schedule distribution for the
students who registered summer
quarter.
Tom Stallworth, University reg­istrar,
said he would have to look at
the problem. "We might give out
schedules in the summer and step
us the mail-out by six or seven
days."
SGA President Trey Ireland said
that a random poll of 200-300
students were surveyed and 81
percent said they would be In favor
of the change.
The 18 percent that were un­decided
cited some reasons for
their opposition. Some said that
they were used to the schedule the
way it is, while others complained
that it would cut into summer jobs.
The next step will be to gauge
how the students feel, when they
vote on the issue Thursday, Ireland
said.
The proposal will be placed on
the Homecoming ballot today to
find out how the students feel about
the change.
Ireland said, "If they vote 'yes,'
it doesn't mean that it will happen,
just that we'll look into it further. If
they vote 'no' that will be the end of
the proposal."
The calendar for next year has
already been approved by the
faculty senate and has been given
to President Hanly Funderburk for
his approval, he said, but Funder­burk
is waiting to approve the
calendar until mcr? information on
the proposed change is received.
One other school that imple­ments
the calendar change is Troy
State University in Troy, Ala.
Walter Sullivan, director of Aca­demic
Affairs at Troy, said the
students like it because the long
break enables them to have Christ­mas
jobs. "It's created no pro­blems,"
he said, adding that they
program has existed at Troy for six
or seven years.

Assistant News Editor
"It's a landslide."
When Sen. Ted Little uttered
those words at the Lee County
Democratic Headquarters Tues­day
night as election returns show­ed
a large Reagan victory, heads
nodded in silent agreement.
"I didn't expect a landslide,"
Little said, "I hate to lose and I
hate for my party to lose, but I
believe that the wisdom of the
people prevails."
Little said he felt the debates
were the turning point for the
undecided votes, swaying them
towards Reagan. "By not blun­dering,
Reagan showed he could
stand level ground with the presi­dent
of the United States," he said.
The Iranian crisis and the shape
that the economy is in were also a
downfall for Carter as well as a
frustration with the administration
for not giving the needed dynamic
leadership, Little said.
Frank Brown, co-chairman of
the Lee County committee to re­elect
Carter, said inflation was
primary downfall for Carter.
Brown also said he was surprised
at the landslide victory. "I felt like
Mr. Carter was going to win by 3
percent, and I stayed with him
until the bitter end," he said.
"The students were probably the
swaying factor (in the Lee County
vote). We didn't campaign among
the students a great deal because
we felt like the majority of the
students were for Reagan."
Brown said he believed the Lee
County workers did as much as
they could with what they had.
Mrs. Jane Walker, co-chairman
of the Lee County committee to
re-elect Carter, said there were
about 7,540 people working on and
off in Lee County.
Early in the evening, Walker was
still optimistic, looking around and
saying, "Ya'll don't have such long
faces, we'll pull through."
But as the evening progressed
and it became evident that Reagan
had won, she said, "I didn't think it
would be this bad.
"This is really sad. I just hope
Reagan will do a better job than I

In a story in last week's Plains­man
about the Oct. 28 meeting of
student leaders at President Fun-derburk's
home, it was reported
that the proposal to change the fall
quarter schedule originated in the
faculty senate. Although the
faculty Senate has been studying
the change, it has not endorsed or
officially proposed such a change.
The resolution to have the question
placed on today's Homecoming
ballot was made by the student
senate.

nbtSuburn plainsman Republicans must now move ahead
Scott Thurston, editor
Larry R. Klein, business manager
Thnradsv, November 6, 1980 Volume 87 Number6 A-4
Think before voting
If the average student was asked if he'd
like to have a Christmas vacation that begins
with Thanksgiving instead of the second
week of December, he'd almost surely say
yes.
Today, students have a chance to answer
that question.
The SGA has placed a non-binding
referendum on the Homecoming ballot
asking students if they approve of a plan to
end fall quarter at Thanksgiving and begin it
two weeks earlier in September. No matter
how attractive the proposal seems at first
glance, however, we urge students to
carefully consider the advantages and disad­vantages
of the plan before voting.
Certainly, such a calendar change holds
many advantages for students, especially
those who live far away. Because finals would
conclude by Thanksgiving, going home for
both that holiday and Christmas would entail
just one round trip. In addition, studies
would not be broken up before finals, and
the longer Christmas break would enable
many to earn the money needed to stay in
school.
For professors, a longer Christmas break
would provide a longer time for research and
preparation. Also, professors with school-age
children have to be in town by early
September anyway, so the earlier class
opening would not affect their vacations.
There arc, however, disadvantages
students should consider before registering
their preference. Because Auburn students
get out later than most students in the
spring, an earlier fall starting date would cut
two weeks off the summer, a fact that might
hinder some in finding jobs.
Although some argue that it is not
substantially more than the present break, a
six-week layoff during Christmas could hurt
students in scries courses in sciences and
foreign languages. And veteran's benefits
could be lost to some students, although it
seems that problem could be worked out.
The proposal might also curtail the
vacation plans of those faculty members
without school-age children, since August
and September are probably preferable to
December for traveling.
These are a few things to keep in mind
when voting on the calendar change pro­posal.
Remember, though, that the vote is
essentially an opinion poll designed to
discern what base of support the plan has
among students.
A "yes" vote majority will not guarantee
its implementation, but will keep the idea
alive and give it momentum. A "no" vote by
students will almost certainly kill the
proposal.
We urge students to consider all sides of
the issue carefully.
Remembering when...
Homecoming is a special time at Auburn
University, where ties with school seem
especially binding. We welcome all visiting
alumni back to the Plains this weekend.
But we cannot let the chance pass to point
out that if alumni notice anything different
about Auburn, it is only natural. Auburn is
an uneasy place these days, uneasy because its
future is clouded and uncertain.
The old alma mater has been hit hard by
unusual events during the past year, in­cluding
a strenuous presidential search, the
adjustment to a new administration, an
unusually heavy emphasis on financial
solvency over academics and the deaths of
two Auburn legends, Coach Shug Jordan and
Dean Karharine Cater.
It has been a trying time for Auburn
people everywhere. We hope it has not been
so trying that alumni find Auburn changed
for the worse. In any case we ask that alumni
take a careful look around them this
weekend, and that they remember what
they've seen, good and bad.
Lee looks good
The voters of America proved a lot of
people wrong Tuesday, especially the poll­sters
who had predicted a nip and tuck race
between Ronald Reagan and Jimmy Carter.
But the political prognosticators were
correct about one thing. Barely more than
half the nation's voters went to the polls
Tuesday.
But while we regret that more Americans
chose not to take advantage of their
opportunity to influence the course of the
Hot corner
When you can't stand the heat, get out of
the kitchen, the old saying goes, and it
appears that football coach Doug Barfield has
taken the advice to heart.
Barfield last week cancelled his weekly
"Coach's Corner" question and answer
session at which he met with students outside
War Eagle Cafeteria. He says he needed to
spend the time coaching his players, and that
he had been planning to cancel the session
since the beginning of the year.
Barfield's desire to spend more time
instructing his players is certainly admirable,
especially in light of current circumstances.
But we urge Coach Barfield to reconsider.
country, we find local turnout anything but
regrettable.
Lee County voters turned out in record
numbers. An estimated 22,000 of 30,000
registered voters went to the polls, even
though it meant standing in long lines that
resulted from the high turnout.
Congratulations, Lee County voters. No
one can ever say your voice was not heard in
1980.
In an atmosphere of speculation and rumor
like that which has clouded Auburn athletics,
appearances count for everything. By cutting
his only direct link with students, Barfield is
only adding to the distance between himself
and fans that has resulted from the booing of
those fans and Barficld's own remarks.
Even though his motives may be entirely
correct, Barfield can only hurt himself by
disallowing students a chance to ask whatever
questions are on their minds about football.
Football is not among the most humane
activities, but we need to be reminded that
those involved are human anyway, and
"Coach's Corner" was one way of reminding
both students and the coach of that.

Ronald Reagan is now the president-elect of
the United States, Howard Baker should be
the new Senate Majority Leader, Alabama has
elected its first Republican senator since
Reconstruction, the Talmadge dynasty in
Georgia is over and liberal stalwarts in
Congress like George McGovern and Birch
Bayh are defeated. Such is enough to bring
tears of joy to even the most hard-nosed
Republican.
It is a time for celebration, because such an
overwhelming victory, which was totally
unexpected, has been a longtime coming.
The celebration, however, should be very
short. The republic is in a horrible state, and
the sobering truth is that the future is going to
be tough for the new conservative majority.
The leaders must begin to produce quickly,
for Americans sent a message to the world
Tuesday that they are exasperated with our
present state of affairs.
Inflation, the nagging thought in the back of
voters' minds, still runs in double digits.
Likewise, unemployment remains above the
unacceptable 7 percent mark.
Abroad, America faces deterioration of her
image and a lessening influence over her allies.
The hostages remain in Iran.

Productivity in industry is down. Last week,
General Motors announced the largest loss for
a single quarter in American corporate
history. The next day, Ford Motor Company
said it had topped even that figure.
The American people are tired because the
federal government is too much with us.
Over-regulation in industry has caused frus­tration
of manufacturers.
Blue collar workers, union members, Jews
and Spanish Americans, not typical Republican
voters, joined in the victory. Probably not an
embrace of Republicanism, the vote of these
groups, nonetheless, is a rejection of Demo­cratic
Party ideology.
That Democratic ideology has basically
controlled American politics since the 1960
election of John F. Kennedy. But the doctrine
of government spending to meet all social
needs and the resulting government creep into
the private sector was the basis for the
stagflation of the '70s, Americans perceived.
Much had been made in the press that the
Democratic Party was no Jonger the "party of
ideas"; many felt it still clung to liberal policies
that history proved simply did not—and do
not— work.
So we the American people decided it was
time for a change, and change is what we
produced.
Now the mantle of power and responsibility
has shifted to conservatives in general and
Republicans in particular.
The Republicans must get the gears of
government running smoothly again, or they
will be rejected even more quickly than the
Democrats were.
Government spending must be held down,
saving and investment must be encouraged,
government creep must be curtailed, inflation
must be drawn back and the American defense
posture must be strengthened.
There are no "ifs" in those statements. The
American people will accept no excuses if such
results are not produced.
The conservative victory is indeed a cause
for celebration, but let it be short-lived.
It is, indeed, time to get on with the business
at hand.

Hostages can only hold their breath
The break came early Sunday morning.
Campaign weary, President Carter was
roused out of his bed in Chicago with the news
that the Iranian Parliament had finally set the
terms for the release of the 52 American
hostages being held in Iran.
But can the hostages and their families
breathe easy and feel assured of a release in the
near future?
Although it would be nice to think so, the
answer to this question is doubtful. The whole
issue hinges on how the terms are interpreted
by Iran.
The parliament has demanded a U.S. pledge
that it won't interfere in Iranian affairs, that it
release frozen Iranian assets, that it drop all
claims against Iran and that it return to Iran
the wealth of "the cursed Shah."
The first of these demands is relatively clear
and has in fact already been carried out by the
United States. But a pledge of non-inter­ference,
unlike the other three demands,
involves no complex legal or economic issues.
The demands that the United States pledge
to release frozen Iranian assets and that it
drop American claims against Iran, if inter­preted
harshly, could cause a great deal of
problems in the situation.
The actual text of the terms as translated by
the State Department states that the Iranian
assets are to be "put at the disposal of Iran in
such a way that the government of the Islamic
Republic of Iran can use them in any manner it
wishes," and that the Iranian government
wants the "cancellation and abrogation of all
claims" against Iran.
When President Carter froze about $8 billion
in Iranian assets on Nov. 14, more than 250
legal suits were filed in the attempt to recover
damages incurred by the freeze. The reversal
of all the legalities involved in this situation
would most probably fall beyond the authority
of the president.
The final demand, that the United States
return the wealth of the Shah to Iran, may
prove impossible both realistically as well as
legally.
Financial experts consider it to be a
gargantuan task, if it is even possible, to locate
and tally the Shah's holdings, and the
transference of these assets to Iran may be
, legally impossible.
However, some experts have suggested that
the demand could be interpreted in a way to
allow the United States to merely set up a way
Matt
Lamere
to pay back to Iran the amount of the Shah's
assets rather than actually returning them.
U.S. officials must decide whether it is
practical, legal or wise to accept the terms set
down by the Parliament. Before they can
decide this, officials must be certain of the
interpretation of the terms by Iran.
Even obtaining this interpretation may
prove to be troublesome since there is no
direct diplomatic channel between the United
States and Iran as of yet.
Tuesday, on one of the morning national
news programs, there was an interview with
the father of one of the hostages, who seemed
to sum up the general feeling in the present
situation.
The concerned father said he and his family
didn't want to get their hopes too high because
if the recent improvements fell through, the
pieces may be too hard to pick up. But he said
if his son were released within the next week
or two, he would "let out a yell that would be
heard all over town."
For his sake and for the sake of the other
hostages and their families, let's hope we hear
his yell soon.

Interview days ahead
for Jimmy, John and Ed
Whatever the present unemployment
figures are, one thing is certain: this week's
presidential election threw a few more men
into the competitive job market.
Just like John Q. Public, the candidates who
lost Tuesday must now face all the
ordinary ordeals of finding new jobs. These
include scanning want ads, standing in
unemployment lines, typing up resumes and
giving interviews.
Yes, even though these men were running
for president of the United States, they have
to undergo the same traumatic and pointless
experience of interviews as we do.
If we could take a look at the reports made
by the respective interviewers of the ex-candi­dates,
this is what they would be like.
Subject interviewed: JIMMY CARTER
Jimmy, as his friends call him, seemed
rather quiet today and rarely smiled. He
answered many questions with "I believe my
stance on that is clear." When pressed for
more information he said, "The hostages have
been on my mind a lot lately," and when asked
about what kind of competent professionals he
had worked with in the past few years, he
began to shake uncontrollably. He then
became incoherent, repeating such phrases as
"Voodoo economics" and "Kill Bonzo!"
I asked him if he would like to take a break,
but he assured me that he could go on. He
concluded by saying that he was happy to have
this interview during the last few hours of his
life and left to go "check on his brother." My
analysis is that Carter is a fragile man, but put
a sweater on him and he'd make a great host
for a children's television show.
Subject interviewed: JOHN ANDERSON
Right from the start, Anderson kept
pounding on my desk and yelling at me, just
Tim
Dorsey
pounding and yelling. He was like that
Kennedy guy we had a few months ago. I
asked him why he wanted to come to work for
us, and he yelled, "I AM A VIABLE CHOICE!"
He pounded some more and broke my pencil
sharpener. He then got up and started moving
around.
He ran over to the window yelling, pounded
on it and broke it. John then jumped up on my
desk and shouted, "GIVE ME A CHANCE!"
Before I knew it, he was running out the door
screaming about having white hair. I looked
out my door to see him running down the hall
with people getting out of his way. "I HAVE
GLASSES TOO!" he yelled as he got into the
elevator.
Anderson, I believe, is very dangerous and
should never be let inside our building again.
Subject interviewed: ED CLARK
During the entire interview, Clark was
staring up in the air. His hair and tie were
blowing too. There wasn't the slightest draft in
the office, and this guy's hair and tie were
blowing around. He kept saying in a quiet
voice that he wanted to entirely change the
structure of our company.We better hire this
guy quick.
Winning season still possible,
large turnout needed at rally
Editor, The Plainsman:
Things could be better. The football team,
often the measure of morale on campus, is
currently 4-4 with one of the toughest
schedules in the country facing them in the
closing weeks of this season Rumors are flying
about the impending dismissal of coach
Barfield, and the drop in attendance at the last
few games is further evidence that student
apathy is becoming a fact at a school that
previously had been known for its unusual
amount of spirit.
This apathy alone, regardless of whether a
team is winning or losing, should be the cause
of both concern and a good deal of reflection by
any student who has questioned his support of
Auburn football. Doug Barfield is still the
coach, and the team still has three games
remaining, with a winning season still a
possibility.
Auburn fans can have a great deal to do with
whether that winnigg season becomes a
reality. A large, strongly supportive turnout at
both the pep rally Friday night, where both
coach Barfield and most of the team will be
present, and the game Saturday can have more
of a positive effect than most people realize.
It's easy to support a successful, winning
team. Now is the time when Auburn football
needs a strong following, and it's time for
Auburn fans to display the much talked-about
"Auburn spirit." Please, don't let the team
down.

Caution: bike law enforced
Editor, The Plainsman:
Thank you, Sandra Lyle, for your article on
ticket dodgers and rules of the road,
Plainsman, Oct. 23.
The article inadvertently omitted the law
against riding bicycles on sidewalks in down­town
Auburn. DON'T!!
According to Chief Dawson, bicycles may
be ridden on campus sidewalks if the sidewalks
do not parallel a roadway, but bicyclists must
yield to pedestrians on sidewalks.
Motorcyclists have railed, to ask about not
being able to use their entire lane. That was
obviously a typographical error. A motorcycle
may occupy a full lane of traffic.

Atlanta children aren't playing now
A-5
Sunday afternoons in the fall are the times
when all children should be out in the yard
playing football or climbing trees or engaging
in some other outdoor activity. It is not a time
for them to be indoors.
But for thousands of black Atlanta children,
there was no chance last Sunday to be outside,
and it wasn't because the weather outside was
especially inclement—indeed it was one of the
most beautiful days this fall.
They did not go outside because they were
afraid—afraid of a man who has taken the lives
of 11 of their contemporaries in a series,of
sickening homicides stretching over the past
18 months.
Yet the children are not the only ones that
are afraid. The whole city is afraid too. Its
citizens hesitate to read the daily papers for
fear that there has been another murder.
It is a city that shares the frustration of its
law enforcement officials, a frustration that
grows as hundreds of leads turn into dead ends
and false alarms.
Situations of this type are good indicators of
a city's true will and determination to pull
through even the worst of circumstances
(witness the results of Miami's spring riots
after a black-white police murder trial was
mishandled).
Is Atlanta really the city that Andrew
Young speaks of when he calls it the "city too
busy to hate," or is it just another apathetic,
callous metropolis that has outgrown its need
to care about its people?
John
Farish
Evidence would seem to point to the former
conclusion.
Says Prateanie Jefferson of the special
police department task force, set up exclusive­ly
to handle leads and information on the
slaying, "The city realizes it is faced with an
unusual and unfortunate situation," but it has
responded "in a positive manner. Inputs such
as weekend search parties (organized by the
mayor after the last child murder and
responsible for the discovery of one of the
bodies) and business community support have
helped alleviate some of the usual negative
reactions from the community.
"The people come from all over the city,
north, south, east and west," said Mrs.
Jefferson, "They cross all socio-economic
lines." Support from the business community
has come in the form of printing and programs
to educate the persons of the community on
the problems of the murders and how to
protect their children.
Even local colleges are getting into the act.
A psychological profile of the killer is beine
prepared by the behavioral science depart­ment
at Emory University. That should help,
said Jefferson, but the problem is "how do you
go about trying to figure out a man like this"
and how do you figure out what he is going to
do next?
So then, Atlanta has passed the first part of
the test, but there is a second section to it.
When the man responsible for these attacks
is apprehended and condemned, and the
Atlanta black community can once again let its
children leave their houses at night, will the
town have learned its lesson?
Will Atlanta return to a city where
northern-city whites don't go into the inner-city
and southern-city blacks avoid other parts
of town?
Will it remain a city aloof from greatness
because it refuses to face its problems with
solidarity instead of divisiveness?
Will it remain a city where the local
government refuses to hear the cries of its
citizens, north and south?
All of these things have changed for the
better in the past weeks while the community
pursued a common cause. Will the city remain
that way when the crisis has passed?
That is the most important question of all.
Magnolia vandalism threatens lives
Editor, The Plainsman:
Those of us who live in Magnolia Dorm
should take a look around. Look at the broken
windows, the busted doors, the smashed exit
signs and all the vandalisms which are readily
visible. Every time we become outraged over
the price of a room, we should take a look
around us. Next quarter we are faced with an
increase of over 20 percent for our rooms and
who do we have to blame but ourselves?
Those of us who are innocent of this
destruction are the majority, yet we will share
in the cost of repair. What has caused me to
write this letter, though, is not the broken
windows, because windows can be replaced,
nor am I writing because I am having to pay for
windows I did not break.
The reason I am writing is because I am
Dorsey not contributing to Plainsman quality
Editor, The Plainsman:
The Plainsman has alw lys had a staff of fine
and capable writers. The quality of journalism
was undeniable. Therefore, I would like to
know under which rock did you find Tim
Dorsey. Since character assasinations, inept
and incompetent journalism seem to be his
style, I think a little constructive criticism is
needed.
First of all, Mr. Dorsey, when you write
about something, be factual. Opinions should
be based on fact not hearsay. Here is an
example for you to go by: "Tim Dorsey lacks
the overall ability to be a journalist. I would
hope that he has another occupation in mind."
This statement is based on a fact, the fact that
your articles are obtuse, idiotic and childlike.
Second, if you wish to be humorous, try
being subtle. Frivolous and nonsensical state­ments
which are meant to be funny only point
out your shallowness as a writer. Please don't
insult you r intelligence anymore.
Lastly, Mr. Dorsey, grow up. You're in
college now and you should act like you're in
college and not in high school.
I hope you did not take any of this
personally. I consider myself trying to help1 you
in your time of need. That is why I am starting
the "Dump Dorsey" campaign. This could be
the kindest thing anyone has ever done for
you.

Iranians don't deserve 'excessive' sympathy
concerned. I am concerned over the fact that
there are individuals living in this dormitory
who care nothing about my life or the life of
anyone else. Their lack of maturity makes them
care for only one thing, and that is excitement.
To them the fire they started Oct. 27 was a
"joke," a simple prank to laugh about. But to
the people who live just a few feet away from
where the fire was started, it was not a joke,
and they did not laugh.
It frightens me to think that if chance had
simply altered the circumstances a little, many
people could have been killed. Even though the
fire was no inferno, the smoke created by it was
more than sufficient to smother a person. With
our room rent we are able to fix broken
windows, but no amount of money could ever
be a substitute for someone's life.
Excitement! That is all that seems to matter
to the people who vandalize Magnolia Dorm.
But where is the excitement in smashing an
exit sign? Most important of all, where is the
excitement when someone's family has to be
notified that their child has died of smoke
inhalation, their child is dead because someone
wanted a little change of pace and decided to
start a fire?
No, no one died in the fire set Oct. 27. But
what about the next time? Maybe next time the
people who live next to the fire will not be
awakened and the smoke will fill the room and
overcome the occupant sleeping in his bed. This
is a sad thought.
tmpiP!&)}i0&&www>mt£
The false fire alarms caused by people
looking for excitement has already caused us to
ignore the fire alarm. When I opened my door
during the alarm, I saw a student desperately
trying to wrap a towel around the alarm so he
could go back to sleep.
The potential for a major fire and destruction
of property and life exists in the dorms. It takes
a flame no bigger than that of a single match
and these dorms could be gutted by fire. The
only thing we can do to preclude a catastrophe
like this is to become the mature people we are
supposed to be.
The next time you see vandalism taking
place.report it. You should not care what others
may think of you, because that person is not
caring about you. You are the one paying for
the damages he causes. It is you who may be
asleep next time when someone sets a fire for
"excitement',' and it is your family that might
have to be notified the next day.
Anyone who has knowledge of how the fire
was set and who set it should contact either the
fire department or security. If for no other
reason, do it because you are the one who will
be paying for all the damages caused by the
fire. If the person who set this fire is caught,
maybe the next person will reconsider and not
set the fire.

Editor, The Plainsman:
Since The Plainsman has of late shown
excessive sympathy and concern for the
"plight" of Iranian students here at Auburn,
we feel it should, in all fairness, give equal
in covering the plight of Auburn's non-Iranian
students.
Last spring, under the protection of anon­ymity
granted by The Plainsman, several
Iranian students expressed their glee over the
death of eight brave American servicemen,
who were, in the name of humanitarianism,
attempting to rescue 52 of their fellow
countrymen who were being held without
reason by raging savages.
These students seem to forget that this
"land of Satan" is virtually paying for their
education, in that this and all other public
schools are funded primarily by the tax dollars
of hard working Americans—Americans who
have no say as to which students' educations
they are supplementing.
There is hardly a single citizen in this
country who would willingly pay for the
education of any Iranian under existing
circumstances. That decision, however, has
already been for them by a number of
soft-headed liberal judges.
Letters policy
The Plainsman welcomes any and all commentary on issus of concern to the
university community. Letters to the editor should be typed, double spaced and
submitted to The Plainsman office no later than 5 p. m. Monday. Letters not typed
or received after the deadline will receive lower priority for that week's paper.
All letters should be signed by the author. The Plainsman reserves the right to
edit letters to conform to space and style needs.
There may well be some Iranian students on
campus who deplore the actions of their
country. We challenge them to let the public
know how they feel.
Let them publicly denounce the fanatical
regime of Khomeini, and the unforgiveable
actions of the militants holding out fellow
citizens captive. Let them pronounce their
support for the United States and acknow­ledge
this country's legitimate right to do
whatever it deems necessary to bring about
the release of the hostages and to see that
justice is served in this breach of international
law.
As for the other Iranians— those who insist
on condemning America to hell while taking a
free ride courtesy of Uncle Sam— let them
return to their wonderful Ayatollah and his
heaven on earth: we have no need for them
here.

Traditional morals fading away
as humanist philosophies prevail
Editor, The Plainsman,
"We have taken many steps in our nations
history to right the immoral wrongs of our
past..." This statement was made in the letter
section of The Plainsman last week in
reference to the upcoming election. I'm not
trying to cut the writer or this quote, but I am
using it for an example of what I feel happens
when a society gets away from a set standard
of values that govern between right and
wrong.
In this case the writer made a statement
three paragraphs earlier explaining her dis­approval
of a particular organization. She said
"One man's morality is another man's im­morality."
If this statement is true, how could
the writer then make such a statement as the
beginning quote?
Here is a contradiction that is one example
of what I see as a drastic problem our country
has today. We have lost sight of our most basic
standards of living.
I feel the problem is that man alone has tried
to make his own value system using only the
rationale that he has within himself. He has
considered himself to be the supreme end, the
final answer to all the questions that come his
way. He decides what is right or wrong.
This humanistic philosophy has brought out
a world of controversy over what actually is
right or wrong, what is ethical and what isn't.
The deeper this controversy goes, the more
relative it becomes, i.e., abortion and eu­thanasia.
Suddenly the individual finds he or she is
without an answer to traditionally "under­stood"
principles of living.
What man has done has been to leave out the
main ingredient; for we have forgotten the
one who gave us standards to begin with. The
created seems to have said to the Creator,
"I've outgrown you, I don't need you any­more."
Being a Christian, I firmly believe God's
Word has laid down a tremendously accurate
system of values, that if followed, can put a
stop to the declining principles that we have
seen happening in America.
Israel's history should be an example to us of
a nation that was blessed as it honored and
obeyed God's law, but as the nation fell away
from the principles laid down in Scripture, we
see them fall into dilemma. The Old Testa­ment,
one of the most accurate, historical
records of Israel's prosperity as they obey God
and problems such as loss in battle, and even
enslavement, as they turn from Him.
I'm speaking to America as a whole when I
say it's time to consider our state; consider the
ethics and "morality" we now abide by as
compared to the principles held at the
beginning of our country. Especially now as we
start a new presidential term, we must choose
what authority we will pay allegiance to, God's
or man's.

Editor, The Plainsman:
As reading and writing is the focus of both
my training and vocation, I naturally am
interested in The Plainsman.
As a lover of sports I devote some attention
to the sports pages, and as a lover of baseball I
devoted particular attention to John Farish's
column "Grandfathers, baseball go together."
This last issue left me somewhat dismayed at
what I am.
This column is nice in spots, particularly
with such observations as "for some reason all
old men are baseball fans." He includes an
• interesting, homey catalog of little known facts
that capture the spirit of baseball. But a couple
of Mr. Farish's "facts" are the little known and
deserve to remain so.
Consider the first item in his catalog: "The
Boston Braves coming from 26 games out of
first place to win the National League pennant
and beat the awesome Philadelphia Athletics
in the 1917 World Series."
The Braves may indeed have been 26 games
out of first place, a position not unfamiliar to
that organization in 1917, and if they were
they most probably remained that way. Not
that there is not a miracle finish in that club's
history. But the year was 1914, not 1917, and
on July 4 they were about 10, not 26 (I suspect
no team ever has or ever will rally from such a
deficit) games out of first before they won the
pennant and accomplished a first-ever sweep
of the Athletics (that much, at least, is
correct)'.
Mr. Farish later claims that Casey
Stengel "took the laughable New York Mets
from last to first in just a few years." The
Mets' first year in major league baseball was
1961, and it is true that they were "laughable,"
and it is true that they were managed by
Stengel who recently left the Yankee's bench,
and it is true that they finished first as soon as
1969. But in 1969 Stengel was long gone and
forgotten; the manager of that team was Gil
Hodges. Of course it would make a great
baseball story if Stengel was the manager. Too
bad it isn't true.
As for Mr. Farish, I am most sympathetic to
his perception of baseball as a grant
historical "American" sport. So sympathetic
in fact, that I hate to see it ruined b;
inaccurate reporting.
Mr. Farish has a simple but significan
obligation to his readers and to all
journalism, and that is to print what is true.
The point, finally, is much bigger ths
simple misstatements. Mr. Farish was eith<
too lazy or too uncaring to verify every fa
that went into his article.
It is true that not many people would kno
or even care about the 1914 Miracle Braves c
Gil Hodges' Amazin' Mets, but that is surel
too easy.
Some people, such as myself, do know, an
now he's being called on it. A tougher, mor
exacting attitude about what we say, an
especially what we write, would benefit us a\

Dean Horton shows concern for all students
Editor, The Plainsman:
I would like to express my graditude to
Dean George R. Horton Jr., Mr. M. H. Steele
and the School of Business for the help I
received from them during drop and add
period this fall.
During this period I wasn't able to pick up a
math course because of the number of cutbacks
'Handling' to become new fad?
of classes this fall and my conflicting schedule.
I saw Associate Professor James R. Wall of the
math department on a Friday who felt the
problem was to prove I didn't have a
conflicting schedule instead of finding a class
for me to attend.
I was able, to see Dean Horton that Friday
also, even though I am not in the School of
Business but interested in some courses. Dean
Horton and Mr. Steele sought out classes that
PP1 ia#iw»-®riwiow»T**6
would fit into my schedule, seeing the problem
was not whether I had a conflicting schedule
but that I was missing valuable class time.
Because of Dean Horton's and Mr. Steele's
effort, I missed only two days of class and
want to thank them for their sincere concern
for the welfare of not only the School
Business students but for others as well.

Editor, The Plainsman:
A letter in the Oct. 16 Plainsman re­primanding
"handling" caught my attention.
Not only do I condone handling, but I think it
should sweep campuses nationwide as a
popular fad.
I wonder at unfounded aversions to hand­ling,
since it seems wholesome enougn to be
included in the fanfare of our own cheer­leaders.
To every decade there is attributed a
nonsensical craze, and what better way isthere
to usher in the '80s than with a proud tradition
of handling? However, I think it is first
necessary to establish the rudiments of
handling.
Unlike most crazes.no footwear is required.
A conventional handling team should consist of
six or more participants, although for victims
of unusual proportions, handlers should exer­cise
discretion.
First, a victim must be singled out in a
crowded campus. Anyone bearing more than
four textbooks and wearing the expression of
an eager student should be scrutinized for
wedding bands or other tokens of bondage. If
free of such ornamentation, the victim should
be encircled by the handling participants,
jostled off their feet and volleyed about in the
air until free of all textbooks, apples, rulers
and other possible student sundries.
Before the victim's belongings slide to a halt
the excited cant of handling subsides, the
handlers allow the victim a dignified dismount
before scurrying away in reckless abandon.

Suit may affect concession sales
By Peggy Wilhide
Assistant News Editor
Auburn University may be faced
with a lawsuit similar to one filed
against the University of Alabama
last month for failure to comply
with a 1955 state law giving the
handicapped priority to establish
vending operations on state pro­perty,
according to John Tyra,
legal counselor for the University
of Alabama.
"The suit was originally filed
against every institution in the
state," said Tyra. "The judge se­vered
the case, the defendant chose
us, and the rest of the schools are a
still waiting in the wings."
The case, filed by a blind man
who was refused a vending con­tract
at the University of Alabama,
was heard in a district court in
Tuscaloosa but has not been ruled
on yet, said Tyra.
"If the decision is rendered in
our favor, he might take it all the
way to the state Supreme Court,"
said the lawyer. "If it is rendered
in his favor, I imagine he will file
suit against other schools."

Fire guts apartment
By Jo Beth McDaniel
Assistant News Editor
Fire gutted an apartment in the
new Caroline Draughon University
apartment complex at about 9 p.m.
Saturday, destroying one bedroom
and heavily damaging the other
bedroom and the kitchen area.
Captain Hubert Carmack, fire
inspector for the Auburn Fire
Department, said the fire was
apparently caused when a wire in
the bedroom shorted out and
caught some clothes on fire.
Tim Chappel, 3ID, an occupant
of the room where the fire origi­nated,
lost an estimated $3,000 in
the fire. Smoke and water
damaged the belongings of his
roommates, Lon McPherson, 1AR,
and Mike Robertson, 1AR. None
were at the apartment at the time
of the fire.
According to another apartment
resident, a neighbor heard the
bedroom smoke alarms go off and
set off the fire alarm that is
connected with the Auburn Fire
Department. He then obtained the
pass key from the office, entered
the apartment and tried to put out
the fire with a fire extinguisher.
When the smoke became too
heavy, he was forced to leave the
apartment. The fire department
then arrived and put out the fire in
several minutes.
"The heat from the room was so
intense that it blew the windows oxxt
of my room and melted the tele­phone
on the wall outside,"
Chappel said. "T lost everything I
had in the room, including my
industrial design portfolio."
The students are now living in
other apartments in the Caroline
Draughon complex. The University
plans to have the apartment re­modeled
and repaired before
winter quarter so that the three
occupants can move back in.
Auburn University business
manager, Rhett Riley, said if the
damage from fire in a University
building was less than $25,000, the
University could not make an
insurance claim on it.
Robertson and McPherson said
they would try to make a claim on
their parents' insurance, and if
that was unsuccessful they would
try to file on Chappel's insurance,
since the fire started in his room. If
that doesn't work,, the student will
probably file a suit against the
state of Alab.ama to make the
University pay for their damages,
but Robertson said, "We really
don't want to do that."
Riley said there is a chance that
the University will pay the students
for the damages, but could not say
for sure because he has not receiv­ed
a report on the fire yet.
butes a commission of "slightly
less than $100,000 annually " to the
University, according to Rhett
Riley, Auburn's business manager.
The impending case in Tusca­loosa
has caused funds generated
by the Cameo commission to be
frozen until a decision is reached,
Riley said.
The funds are normally placed in
a concessions account, headed by a
committee made up of faculty and
students. "The committee uses the
funds to finance student and facul­ty
projects," said Robert Brewer,
chairman of the committee.
Auburn has been presented with
a proposal by the Business Enter­prise
Program for the Blind to
establish a vending operation on
campus, according to Danny
McDaniel, supervisor of the
program and spokesman for the
Crippled Children's Services. "The
administration at Auburn decided
they didn't, want to make any
moves until a court desicion had
been made.
"Once we get some sort of ruling
on the vending machines at the
University of Alabama, I'm sure
Auburn will follow suit."
The lawsuit against the Univer­sity
of Alabama is "fairly compli­cated,"
according to defense attor­ney
Jack Drake of Tuscaloosa.
"The law suit pending here asks
the judge to define the law more
clearly," said Drake.
The law, which states that handi­capped
should be given "prefer­ence"
when bids for vending opera­tions
are put out on state property,
is interpreted differently by Uni­versity
of Alabama legal officials,
said Drake.
Drake said "the University of
Alabama has taken the position
that the word 'preference' means
handicapped organizations will be
able to provide commissions equal
to those paid by private companies.
Of course the handicapped organ­izations
will not be able to pay the
amounts of commission to a uni­versity
that a private company
can.'' ,
In a memorandum issued by
Gov. Fob James last October, the
governor called the law "quite
clear," stating that "facilities for
concessions purposes are under the
State Department of Education,"
which houses the Division of Re­habilitation
and the Crippled
Children Services.
Riley said the ruling should clear
up "any legal interpretation pro­blems"
and that the University
would "do whatever the law re-quirpd."

Coach's Corner canceled
By John Mangels
News Editor
At the request of head football
coach Doug Barfield, Coach's Cor­ner,
a weekly informal question
and answer session with students,
has been cancelled "at least for the
time being.
"I've really agonized about how
to spend that time," Barfield said
after the UPC Horizons' sponsored
event was cancelled following the
Auburn-Mississippi State game. "I
discussed the situation with the
sponsors before the beginning of
the season and told them there was
a chance I might run into some
time problems.
"I probably ought to be coaching
— I need to spend more time and
energy with the players and the
other coaches," Barfield said.
"When I began to realize there
would be a time problem, I wanted
to end the sessions after a win, but
we just couldn't find a good time to
stop.
"I don't want it to sound like I'm
making excuses against facing the
students because of the situation
we're in — I'm not," Barfield said.
"The majority of comments at the
sessions are constructive, and I've
developed some good friendships
out of this. I wouldn't be opposed to
setting up a session during the open
week before the Alabama game. I
didn't mean that Coach's Corner
should be cancelled forever, just
for right now."
Barfield said he had not received
any student reaction to the cancel­lation
other than a letter from the
sponsor thanking him for two years
of particiaption.
'UPC Horizons director Stacey
Hader said students felt "a.
l'itle better about Auburn football"
after the Coach's Corner sessions.
' 'As far as I know, Coach Barfield
wasn't getting negative criticism
from the students at the session. I
don't feel that was what prompted
his decision," she said.
Hader said the only reaction to,
Barfield's decision she had re­ceived
were questions from stu­dents
about why the session had
been cancelled.
The SGA senate tabled for future
consideration a resolution that
would have requested the Univer­sity
Social L'fe Committee to per­mit
consumption- of alcohol on-campus
for students 19-years-old
and older.
The resolution, brought forth by
former SGA presidential candidate
Jim Purcell, was tabled when
senators reached the consensus
further information from consti­tuencies
was needed.
Purcell, who brought the resolu­tion
before the senate on behalf of
the Auburn chapter of the Ameri­can
Civil Liberties Union, of which
he is now president, said the
present restriction against drink­ing
"is in violation of the students'
constitutional rights." He added
that students can unfairly consume
alcohol on some parts of campus,
such as in the Caroline Draughon
Village while they cannot in the
Quad, Hill, Noble, Magnolia and
Alumni Hall dormitory complexes.
The Social Life Committee would
make the recommendation of the
policy change to President Hanly
Funderburk, who would in turn
make a recommendation to the
board of trustees, the final deci­sion-
makers on the subject, senate

The senate also heard the first
reading of a recommended change
to the Code of Laws that would
increase the number of senators
from 31 to 34.
The proposal would add a
senator to the School of Engineer­ing
and the School of Education,
and take one from the Hill dorm
complex.
Two senators would be added to
the off-campus senator roll.
According to Lindsey Jackins,
Hill senator, the proposal was
introduced because changing popu­lations
in schools and residences on

representation by senators.
She added the senator added to the
School of Education was given to
replace one it lost temporarily last
year to the new School of Nursing.

Candidates seek traditional title
Auburn alumni return to the
Plains each year for Homecoming
to see old friends and to view how
the University has changed. Stu­dent
interests during Homecoming
vary from the game itself to
parties and decoration competi­tion.
But a central interest of both
groups is the selection of Miss
Homecoming, a tradition on the
Auburn campus for 43 years.
Candidates for the position this>
year include Julie Flom, 4VAT,
Tina Floyd, 3PRS, Charo Granda,
3AR, Ann Redfield, 3FLT and
Penney Sneed, 4PRS.
Each of the five candidates
agreed the title of Miss Home­coming
was more of an honor than
a duty with specific responsibilities
like the Miss Auburn title.
"This is the first time I've ever
run for anything so I'm new at all
this," said Granda, a native of
Winter Garden, Fla. "Miss Home­coming
should represent fall
quarter and football, but I would
like to see greater involvement
with alumni and football recruit­ing."
Floyd, who is from Columbus,
Ga., " said Miss Homecoming
"should work with the student body
as a whole to promote Auburn
spirit and unity within the Univer­sity.
One thing that's important at
a time like this is to keep morale
up," she said.
"I think it might be an improve­ment
if the position were made
more like Miss Auburn," Redfield,
a Miami, Fla., native said. "Miss
Homecoming should work with the
alumni and other influential people
within the University to promote
Auburn."
Sneed, from Huntsville, said
Miss Homecoming should "ex­emplify
the tradition and spirit of
the Auburn students," but the title
"though an honor, isn't defined as a
job."
Flom also said Miss Home­coming
was "more of an honor
than a specific job. She should
represent the student body in the
best possible way, showing the
spirit and loyalty everyone talks
about," the Tampa, Fla., native
said.
Each of the candidates said the

Night games probable
for ALPs 1981 season
By JoBeth McDaniel
Assistant News Editor
Night games are a distinct pos­sibility
for the 1981 football season,
according to Auburn Athletic
Director Lee Hayley.
"In all likelihood we will have
one or more night games at the
first of the season," Hayley said.
"We are considering which games
may be played at night, but the
final decision will not be made until
January when the two schools get
together and discuss the issue.
"Most major universities now
have some night games during
their regular seasons. We should
not have any problem with the
other team not wanting to play at
night."
Hayley said one team insisted
on scheduling a night game before
they would sign to play Auburn but
he would not reveal the name of
that school. He did say Auburn
does not play the team at home in
the 1981 season.
Campus Security Capt. Don
Rogers said he was anticipating
night games in the near future. He
also said Campus Security was
hoping to hire about 20 extra men
to compensate for the extra traffic
and safety problems that would
come with night games. Campus
Security presently uses about 80
men for football game traffic
control.
"There will probably be an
added number of vehicles at the
night games and it will also be
harder to direct traffic since
drivers will have limited visibil­ity,"
Rogers said.
"Of course this is all in the
planning stage. We are constantly
in communication with the Athletic
Department and they have not told
us anything definite about night
games yet."

best part of the campaign was
getting out and meeting people and
seeing different aspects of the
University. When asked if there
were any negative aspects to cam­paigning,
Redfield said there was
"a lot of competition" and that she
would "like to see a little more
cooperation between the candi­dates."
"I don't like the way people
make it seem so competitive,"
Floyd said, "we're all working
together in this."
Granda said though "no candi­date
holds a grudge against the
others, it would be nice if the
competition were a little friend­lier."

BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN-The River, Columbia
PC236854. Produced by Bruce Springsteen, Jon Landau,
Steve Van Zandt. Rarely do albums with great expecta­tions-
live up to their pre-release anticipation, yet
Springsteen's double pocket set puts to rest any doubts
that the man is contemporary music's greatest
rock'n'roller. There is no other recording artist who puts
as much passion into his music, pouring his heart into
songs about adolescence, cars (a favorite subject mat­ter),
growing up, romance and desolation, all written with
a probing pen and a sense of melody. Springsteen un­veils
more of a melodic side, evidenced in the moving
ballads and rockers. All four sides stand up with no filler
included. Reliable Clarence demons on sax enhances the
majesty of Springsteen's music while the impeccable
playing of his E Street Band support the Boss with a
feisty rock punch. The intense energy level gives much of
the material a live feel. Springsteen is on tour promoting
the LP

defied by Lionel Richie of the Commodores, is included.
It's a strong, highly salable album with attractive graph­ics,
and it shows Rogers' many talents excellently.

SIMUN debates bombs, hostages
By Karen Hartley
Assistant News Editor
The lives of 52 hostages are at
stake, and any decision made is
going to be consequential. It is
decided that the United States will
threaten to drop a nuclear bomb on
Iran unless it consents to release
the hostages.
It may not be the right decision,
but it is characteristic of the
strategies involved in the South­eastern

Nations (SIMUN), a regional event

"The delegates comuose their

Lutomski explained, "then

Some of this year's topics include
Alternative Energy Resources,
South Africa and Interference in

dies in wreck
William Ralph "Shorty" Price,
self-proclaimed head cheerleader
for the University of Alabama, was
killed Saturday near Montgomery
while on his way to the Alabama-
Mississippi State football game.
A spokesman for the Alabama
State Patrol office said Price, 59,
was killed when his car ran off U.S.
231 about nine miles south of
Montgomery.
Price ran unsuccessfully 13
times for public office, including
the governorship of Alabama. He
also published two books-
"Alabama Politics: Tell It Like Tt
is," and an autobiography-"I Ain't
Nothing but a Loser."
He was almost a tradition at
U A, attending almost every
Alabama football game. Price
often was escorted to and from the
games by state troopers and was a
favorite of many Alabama fans.
students with the intention that
these points will allow the student
to become better decison-makers,"
Lutomski said.
Students can sign up for a U.N.
delegation and receive one hour's
credit. "All they have to do is sign
up for U305 when they register, or
they can pick it up at the beginning
of winter quarter," Lutomski ex­plained.
"There will be a meeting
Nov. 6 at 4 p.m. in the Union
Building for anyone interested in
participating.
"SIMUN tries to enhance the
total educational experience of
college.
"It can do this because it goes
beyond the traditional classroom
atmosphere."
SIMUN has existed for 10 years,
and has provided the experience of
learning the policies of another
country to more than 4,000 south­eastern
students.
"SIMUNhas been the largest and
oldest model in the southeast and
has even given birth to two more
models," Lutomski said. "Such
schools as Alabama, University of
South Florida, University of South
Alabama, Vanderbilt, Birming­ham
Southern, Columbus College
and North Carolina State have
participated in past U.N.'s."
Dr. Daniel Nelson, U.N. adviser,
said the real challenge of the
United Nations is to take a not-so-powerful
a country and turn it into
an influential part of the United
Nations.

Burglary program set
By Kathy Jernigan
Plainsman Staffwriter
More than 65 percent of the
burglaries in Auburn during the
summer months this year took
place in the apartments and
trailers of Auburn students, ac­cording
to a spokesman for the
Auburn Police Department.
There is a program in Auburn
which began in January to aid
students who are burglary victims.
Officer George Gunn of the Auburn
Police Department said the pro­gram,
called operation identifica­tion,
is designed to help recover
stolen goods by a number issued to
each participant in the program.
"Each person who joins our
program is given a number to
engrave on his or her personal
items of value. This number can be
traced through the national com­puter
system from anywhere in the
United States if the stolen property
is recovered by the police," said
Gunn.
"There is only a 10 percent
chance of recovery in burglary
cases, so this program was design­ed
to increase a person's chances
of getting back his property. If an
individual has indentified his val­uables
with a number we can trace
through this operation, it reduces
the chance for burglary by 60
percent," explained Gunn.
Stickers are issued to be placed
on windows and doors of the homes
of persons taking part in operation
identification.
The police departments infor­mation
pamphlet accompanying
the stickers states that operation
identification stickers on windows
and doors "tell a burglar that you
are concerned about protecting
your belongings...To the burglar,
this means increased risk."
"The reason for stealing today is
different than it used to be," said
Gunn. "People used to steal for
themselves, because they wanted
the item or needed it, but today
burglars are after something that
Bill
they can sell through a middleman,
often called a fence.
"But the burglar wants clean
items that are unmarked and
untraceable. That's why our pro­gram
of identification is effective
in discouraging theft of property."
Gunn said that some people
engrave their social security num­bers
on their belongings for identi­fication
but since the Supreme
Court ruling seven months ago that
police cannot use this number for
identification, the Social Security
number is no help to them in
returning personal property to the
owner.
Gunn said that students who live
in apartment buildings, trailer
parks or other off-campus housing
should be aware of the program if
they wish to protect their valuables
while in Auburn. If a student
moves, they need to notify the
police department in their new
location of their identification
number and address.
An inventory list is also issued to
members of operation identifica­tion
on which they may list their
valuables in categories such as
automobiles, motorcycles, bicy­cles,
televisions, cameras, watch­es,
tools and other property. This
list is then made available to police
if a burglary should occur so that
they have the information on indi­vidual
items stolen.
Gunn researched the program,
which has been operating nation­ally
for about 10 years, and re- .
ceived a state grant to help in
getting the program started. The
Lions Club of Auburn also donated
considerable funding for Gunn's
program.
The police department provides
the electric inscribers, window
stickers, registration cards and
instructions for operation identifi­cation
to anyone who is interested.
Students interested in the program
should pick up these materials at
the Auburn Police Department on
Monday through Friday from 8
a.m. until 5 p.m.
From page A-l
Plainsman Classified
"I am not opposed to the idea of
establishing a buffer or cushion for
losses of unearned revenues,"
Smith said, "but the major issue is,
to find a stable base for educational
funding that goes beyond the sales
tax. And if it means an increase in
property or other taxes, then I'm
all for it."
Little stated earlier that the bill
might not be passed because of
AEA's fear that it would hamper
teacher pay raises. Smith made no
comment on this matter other than
"it would be interesting to know
which AEA member said that."
Rep. Walter Owens of Centre-ville,
who is chairman of the House
Ways and Means Committee, is in
favor of the idea behind Little's
bill and has pre-filed an identical
bill in the House.
But Owens is also planning
another bill, yet to be prefiled,
which he says has basically the
same plan as Little's, but "is the
simplest way to go about it."
Owens said, "My bill allows for
the appropriation of more than the
actual tax dollars collected."
The difference in the bills is that
Little's bill allows for the appropri­ation
of 95 percent of the projected
amount of tax revenue coming into
the State Educational Trust Fund,
and for the appropriation of what­ever
percent might be deemed
necessary from any of the reserve
accumulated from the previous
year or years.
Owens said the his bill "will
always keep the growth as a
reserve."
