Winter storm brings unexpected days off
Playground
sent to AU
from nature

Plainsman Staffwriters
Though Auburn Univeristy was
the last educational institution in
Lee County to call off classes
yesterday, the announcement
finally came at 12 p.m.,and students
were free to go home and get
warmed up.
But warming up was the last thing
on students' minds as most of them
sacrificed dry clothes and warm
toes for the unusual weather that
had hit the loveliest village.
The Auburn campus soon turned
into a massive playground as
students scooped, packed and threw
snowballs in every direction. How­ever,
the most popular sport was not
snowball fights, but rather stealing
orange food trays from cafeterias to
slide down hills with.
"It's a tradition," said Mike
Brooks, 3PIR, "The guys around
here do it every year it snows."
It may be a tradition with the
students, but its a heartache for food
services. "They make wonderful
slides, but students don't realize
they cost $4 each ," said Rebecca
Crosby, director of food services.
She said the cost of replacing the
trays would have to be included in
the formula when pricing items next
year. She added that the only way
they can be retrieved is if people
take them back to the dorms where
they are periodically picked up, or
turn then back into the cafeterias.
"If the people would voluntarily
bring them in we would appreciate
it," she said.

Auburn student prepares for a crash landing on a cafeteria-style sled
By John Peck
Plainsman Staffwriter
Cafeteria trays became make­shift
sleds. Snowmen sprouted from
patches of virgin snow. Passer-bys
became instant targets for snow­ball-
throwing maniacs.
But while students made the best
of their unexpected holiday, city and
campus service employees felt the
sting of problems caused by incle­ment
weather. About three inches of
snow accumulated, according to the
Weather Service of Auburn.
University President Hanly Fun-derburk
cancelled afternoon clas­ses
Tuesday when snow and ice
moved into the Auburn area, mak­ing
driving conditions hazardous.
"I made the decision based on
data I had from several sources," he
said. "Thesafetyof the students and
faculty was our primary reason for
closing."
Funderburk later cancelled Wed­nesday
classes as snow and ice still
remained. When asked how this
would affect the quarter schedule,
he said the University would have to
deal with the matter later.
The cold front hit auburn early
Sunday, and by Monday morning,
temperatures had lowered to one
degree.
Many students were left without
water because of broken or frozen
water pipes. The married student
housing complex, Bullard Hall and
several campus dorms reported
broken water pipes.
Paul Kearney, Physical Plant dir­ector,
saidheatingpipesonthenorth
side of Haley Center froze Monday,
causing some flooding and incon-vtence.
"The worst thing we have to be
ready for is downed power lines,"
he said. * 'We have crews standing by
to handle that." Kearney said the
physical plant stocks sand in case
it's needed to spread on roads and
intersections.
Ellis Mitchell, city fire chief, said
his department responded to calls
ranging from emergency medical
service (EMS), to chimney fires. He
said inclement weather hindered
operations and created more prob­lems.
' 'The snow and ice slows down our
maneuverability," he said. "When
our response time is slowed, the fire
gets a head start on us."
Mitchell said the cold weather
caused water pipes to burst, trig­gered
alarms and caused flooding.
He said his crews responded to
serveral EMS calls, downed power
lines and house fires.
"Fires start easily this time of
year becuase most heating systems
just aren't designed to run contin­ually,"
he said. "Prolonged cold
weather keeps heaters on longer."
Numerous injuries were reported
on campus, but only one case was
serious. A female student report­edly
suffered head injuries Tuesday
while sledding near the Graves
Amphitheatre and was taken to the
infirmary for treatment.
Dr. JudithHood, directorof Drake
Student Health Center, said the girl
was later taken to Lee County
Hospital and was reportedly in
serious condition.
Another girl reportedly slipped
and fell in front of a dorm Wed­nesday
and was taken to the
infirmary but her condition is
unknown.
Several streets had to be closed
when they became impassable, and
city and campus police had their
hands full tyring to keep traffic
flowing on the streets still open. The
Auburn Police Department said it
normally handles from three to five
accidents, but the icy roads incr­eased
the number to 27.
Gov. James proposes $ 71 for Auburn
By Keith Ayers and
Steve Farish
Plainsman Staffwriters
Saying that "raw politics will
prevail as the key ingredient of how
tax dollars are used" for higher
education unitl more belt tightening
is seen, Gov. Fob James has
released his budget proposals for
the state's collegesand universities.
The governor's proposal for
Auburn University, released just be
fo
The governor's proposal for
Auburn University, released just
before his "State of the State"
address Tuesday night, calls for an
allocation of $71 million; $45.04
million to the main campus, $8.25
million to the Agriculture Experi­ment
Station, $10.37 million to the
Cooperative Extension Service and
$7.34 million for the Montgomery
campus. That total figure would
amount to a 12.88 percent increase
over last year's $62.9 million alloca­tion.
The University itself is requesting
$81.67 million; $52.6 million for the
main campus, $10 million for the
Experiment Station, $10.9 million
for the Extension Service and $8.1
million for AUM.
James also said in his speech that
he will propose al4percent raise for
teachers working in kindergartens
through twelfth grade and junior
colleges.
In the area of pensions, James
said he will ask the Legislature to
give retired teachers a 6 percent
raise in the amount they receive. In
addition, the governor said, he will
propose that teachers in higher
education be allowed to choose
between one of two retirement plans
available to them. Now these teach­ers
may use both plans.
The governor also said he will
propose a scaling down of pensions
for new employees from the 2.0125
percentile to the 1.6 percentile.
Present employees will have the
option of investing in the higher
percentile by paying an additional
one percent of their income into the
program.
James also will introduce a plan
for revamping the Alabama Com­mission
on Higher Education. He
wants the new body to administer
academic programs and any pro­posed
expansions of them.
Last week, the University admin­istration
had presented its version of
the budget request before a joint
legislative committee.
To get the figure Auburn re­quested,
"we talked to deans and
department heads and calculated
the amount we will need next year,"
said Dan Holsenbeck, director of
University Relations and liason to
the Legislature. He added he doesn' t
realistically expect to get all of the
29.57 percent increase the Uni­versity
is requesting.
Though administrators have not
gone over the details of the gover­nor's
budget proposal, they have
seen the executive budget summary
prepared in December, Holsenbeck
added.
"Our biggest request increase is
in the maintenance part of the
budget which includes travel, phone
bills and supplies," said Holsen­beck.
"Because of inflation and
proration, the costs have become
hard to meet in recent years," he
added.
"Another area we will be giving
special attention is the Agriculture

Telecable puts pressure
on TV cable robberies
By Kaye Dickie
Plainsman Staffwriter
The conviction of an Auburn
student in early December of theft of
TeleCable services was the first
ever in Auburn, but it won't be the
last, Brad Ashmore, general man­ager
of Auburn TeleCable, said.
Ashmore, who became general
manager in July, said that the
company has started to bring
charges against people who "in the
process of stealing the services cut
off their neighbors, damage our
equipment or sell the service to
others."
The defendant was charged with
the third degree theft of services
underal9781awenactedby the state
to stop robberies of electricity,
water, telephone and cable ser­vices.
The student, who pleaded guilty,
spent two nights in jail and was fined
$200 plus $22 in court costs.
' 'This is not something we want to
do," Ashmore said about the prose­cution,
"but we have to protect our
paying customers. In this case, we
had a man cut into somebody's paid
service and cut that subscriber off.
It not only costs us lost services, but
we had to go out and replace the
cable."
The cost of subscribing to Tele­Cable
is $8.50 monthly. Home Box
Office costs $9.95 monthly.
Ashmore said that one of the
"heaviest audits that has ever been
done was put on during the holidays.
The audit revealed at least 300
illegal hookups in one trailer park,
114 in another and several cases of
spliced wiring in student apartment
complexes.
"Our procedure has been to
disconnect the illegal connections,
hook our equipment back up and
audit the places again.
"If the person has hooked up
illegally again, we can pinpoint the
theft. It's a foolproof audit, and
sooner or later, we're going to get
you," he said.

wages above national median
By Tim Dorsey
Technical Editor
Although Auburn University faculty salaries are
slightly below the national average, administrative
salaries are 29 percent above the national median,
according to The Chronicle of Higher Education.
The Chronicle quoted in its December 2 issue the
1981-82 median salaries from the College and
University Personnel Association (CUPA). Auburn
administrative salaries made public in the budget in
November were 29 percent higher than CUPA's
figures.
A spokesman for CUPA said that administrative
salaries at an institution the size of Auburn would
naturally be somewhat higher than the national
mean. CUPA will publish a report this month which
will categorize institutions by enrollment.
In its June 22 issue, the Chronicle quoted faculty
salary figures from the American Association of
University Professors (AAUP). Salaries were listed
by school along with the national averages for five
categories.
Auburn Professors ranked approximately in the
38th percentile, associate professors in the 45th
percentile, assistant professors in the 66th percentile
and instructors in the 27th percentile.
Vice-President of Academic Affairs Taylor Little­ton
said, "You have to make (administrative)
comparisons with our peer institutions.'' In regard to
faculty salaries he added, ' 'As teachers move up in
the University.. .we don't compete (for them) as well
as we should, which is unfortunate, but we are most
competitive at the assistant professor level."
Faculty Senate President-elect Gordon Bond
commented,' 'Most of the faculty was aware that we
were not doing particularly well compared to
national averages. There's some concern, and this
was expressed by Gov. James...that much of the
money that goes to the universities ends up with the
administrations.''

SGA blood drive starts Monday
AU to try to break record again
(,ni|iliir-: Murk Almond /I'hixogniphj .-Tom I'almrr
By Dianne Lively
Plainsman Staffwriter
The SGA blood drive and the
Alpha Epsllon Delta (AEO) eye
drive will be Jan. 18-21 from 12-6
p.m. In Haley Center lounge.
"'Once is not enough. We've got
that Auburn spirit in our blood.' is
the theme of this year's blood
drive," said Ronna Hickman, SGA
spirit chairman of the blood drive.
"Auburn still holds the 1967 record
for 4,812 pints of blood. This year we
want to beat our own record," said
Hickman.
Several spirit events have been
planned to promote the blood drive.
Aubie will perform skits Jan. 15 with
Dracula on the Haley Center con­course
at 10 and 11 a.m. and noon,
said Faye Prater, SGA director of
the blood drive.
"Gov. Fob i James will cut a
ribbon on the Haley Center con­course
Jan. 18 at 12 p.m. to officially
kick off the blood drive," said
Prater. Mayor Jan Dempsey of
Auburn, along with the Auburn band
and cheerleaders, will attend,
Prater added.
Hickman said, "On Jan. 19 at 11
a.m., the faculty will participate in a
shopping cart race on the concourse.
Also a hot-dog-eating contest among
four Auburn football players will be
on the concourse Jan. 20 at 11 a.m.
Mayor Dempsey will be the official
judge for the contest."
Tina Hernandez, vice president of
AED, said, "The Alpha Epsilon
Delta eye drive is at the same time
and location as the SGA blood drive,
so stop to find out more about eye
donations on your way to donating
blood."
"Previous eye surgery or eye
disease, including nearsightedness
and farsightedness, do not affect the
donation of eyes, and there is no
disfigurement after removal of the
donor's eyes,'' said Hernandez. Eye
donations go to the Lions Eye Bank
run by the Lions Club.
' 'To pledge your eyes takes only a
minute. Just sign a donor card,"
Herrandez said.
AED is collecting used eyeglasses
for Eyes for the Needy, an organiza­tion
that distributes eyeglasses.
Eyeglasses can be donated after
Jan. 21 in Haley Center room 2020.

Segregation suit may cause policy changes
By Virginia Martin
News Editor
Auburn University may soon be
ordered to change its hiring and
admissions policies to allow for
better minority representation,
according to Gerald Leischuck,
director of institutional analysis.
This is one possible result of a
complaint filed a year ago by the
U.S. Department of Education
against the state of Alabama for
violation of Title VI of the Civil
Rights Act of 1964. It charged that
the state failed to integrate its
formerly segregated system of
higher education.
Education last week asked the
Justice Department to "begin en­forcement
proceedings against Ala-f
bama because of its failure to come
up with a planned solution to the
situation by the Dec. 31 deadline,
said Jimmy Samford, Gov. Fob
James' legal adviser.
He said essentially that there are
"not enough whites in traditionally
black institutions and, to a lesser
extent, not enough blacks in tradi­tionally
white institutions."
Samford said there are two
possible avenues that Justice could
take. First, the department could do
as Education wants and file a suit
against the state for violation of
Title VI.
It is more likely, though, that
Justice will begin a negotiation
process, Samford said. Education
wouldn't discuss the subject or
negotiate in any way, Samford said,
but he hopes that Justice will.
'I don't believe there were any
specific Auburn University de­ficiencies
cited, "Leischucksaid. He
added a statewide comprehensive
plan would result in "expectations
of an increase in minority represen­tation
in students and faculty."
One of the main problems in
Alabama, according to the com­plaint,
is that the duplication of
programs among Alabama State
University, Auburn University at
Montgomery and Troy State Uni­versity
in Montgomery have contri­buted
to segregation.
A similar situation exists in
Huntsville between the University
of Alabama in Huntsville and
Alabama A & M University.
Three agriculture scientists honored
By Kim Murphy
Plainsman Staffwriter
Three scientists of Auburn Uni­versity's
Alabama Agricultural
Experiment Station were chosen for
the new "Director's Research
Award."
The award, established by Dr.
Gale A. Buchanon, is given annually
to both a senior and a junior
scientist.
There were three recipients of this
year's award because the voting
faculty jointly nominated two junior
scientists.
Dr. S.A. Edgar, professor of
pathology and parasitology in the
department of poultry science, was
the senior scientist chosen.
Dr. Rodrigo Rodriguez-Kabana,
professor of plant nematology in the
department of botany, plant pathol­ogy
and microbiology, and Dr. Paul
Backman, associate professor in
plant pathology in the same depart­ment,
were chosen as recipients for
the junior scientists' award.
Buchanon, dean for research and
director of the Alabama Agricul­tural
Experiment Station, said,
"Recipients of the Director's
Research Award are among those
people who have done outstanding
research in support of our agricul­ture
and forest industries."
He said the award was not
financial but was created to recog­nize
a job done well. Simple recog­nition
is one of the greatest awards a.
scientist could receive, said'
Buchanon.
Any solution, though concentra­ting
on these areas, will probably
include essentially all universities
in the state, Leischuck said.
The deadline for formulating a
solution was extended by Educa­tion's
Office of Civil Rights twice
last year, but time ran out and it was
underaDec. 31 deadline setby a U.S.
DistrictCourt in Washington D.C. to
either present a plan to take action
against the state.
Twice during this time proposals
were discussed, first when univer­sity
representatives submitted a
plan and then when James submit­ted
one. Samford said that James'
disapproval of the university repre­sentatives'
plan was because of its
generality.
James tightened up the time
tables and made it more specific,
according to Samford. The univer­sity
representatives rejected the
plan as too specific.
At this point the federal deadline
ranoutandthe case was turned over
to Justice.
Samford went to Washington
earlier this week to begin talks with
the Justice Department concerning
the situation.

Allen
By Buddy R. Davis
Special Assignments Editor
Bill Allen, like many students, is
fed up with large classrooms and
the dullness of the same courses
every day.
What makes him different from
other students is that Bill Allen is, or
was, a teacher.
He decided to take an early
retirement at age 57.
"I had talked to some University
officials and told them that, unless
some changes were made, I wasn't
going to be available,- •£<*
"They didn't make the changes,
although they promised, so I dec­ided
that it was time to do something
else," he said. He told the University
that he would be leaving in mid-
October and officially retired on
Dec. 16.
Allen taught business law and
environmental law here and had
been on the faculty since 1966. He
was named outstanding teacher in
the School of Business for three
years and was named as a Mortar
Board favorite teacher.
"I love teaching. Instructionis my
primary mission, my ministry, my
reason for being.
"But it's difficult to teach with
80-130 students per section. When I
first came to Auburn, there were
fivre of us teaching what two of us
were doing before I retired. -*,
"I said they would have to get us
some more help and cut section sizes
and class numbers. And of course
they didn't," he said.
George Horton, dean of the School
of Business, said the overcrowding
was because of increased student
interest in taking business courses.
'.'We are by far the hardest hit school
on campus in termsofovercrowding
and course requests. '
"We have far more students
aor'-ymg than we can accomodate.
We're constantly trying to recruit
more faculty," Horton said.
Allen's loss was not the first for the
business school, he added. "We lost
10 or 11 faculty last vear.'' But Allen
will not be missed just by the
department. "He was a very pop­ular
teacher. I'll miss him," Horton
said.
Allen won't miss the teaching
overload he once bore and said he
thinks there are.seven faculty
members who do research without
teaching.
"They should make the people
doing research teach," he said.
' 'They are the highest paid people in
the School of Business, and they're
not teaching any students. And
nobody ever sees the fruits of their,
research.
"The University catalog, along
with the governor (James), said
that the primary purpose of the
University and of the University's
faculty is instruction.
"In every department of the
University, the people who are doing
the teaching are not the ones who are
getting the recognition and remun­eration,"
he said. .
Horton said that there are no
faculty members who do not teach at
some time or another. "There may
be some who at times teach only one
course, bat that is because they are
deeply involved in other school
activities. Faculty must be involved
in a lot of things in the school," he
said. .
Allen plans to indulge in several of
his hobbies now that he has more
free time. Tuesday, he dismantled a
natural photography exhibit that
had been on display for three months
in Callaway Gardens. He also does
free-lancewriting and photography.
He has traveled through Europe,
Canada, Mexico, Columbia, the
Honduras and much of the eastern
United States.
During Allen's tenure as Auburn
City Council president, he was
instrumental in bringing Police
Chief Barney Hardlngto the city and
supported the relocation of a state
alcohol store in Auburn "for the tax
revenues" and the renovation of
downtown.
"I doubt I will run again (forCity
Council president).I thought about
running formayoronce, but it would
take up too much time."
Also if another teaching position
should open up, Allen said, "I'm
available."
Race on for best engineering school in state
By Ashley Jenkins
Assistant News Editor
The long-standing rivalry be­tween
Auburn and the University of
Alabama has now reached the
academic sector of the two univer­sities.
Each university gives indica­tions
it is striving to make Its
engineering school the best in the
state.
At a legislative committee meet­ing
in Montgomery last Tuesday
held to discuss State university
budgets, University of Alabama
President Joab Thomas said, "Our
engineering school is fully accred-itated.
I and everyone else are
working to make our institution the
best it can be."
Auburn University President-
Hanly Funderburk told the legisla­tors,
"Gentlemen, we have the
dominant engineering school in this
state and intend to have it In the
future."
The school has grown rapidly and
now has about 4,000 students en­rolled.
This is almost half the
full-time equivalent students of
engineering in the state, making
Auburn's engineering school the
largest in the state and the fifth
largest in the southeast.
Dr. W.J. Hatcher, dean of engi­neering
at the University of Ala­bama,
said, "It is difficult to define a
number one academic program.
Certainly in terms of size, Auburn
has the largest, but Alabama has
had engineering for a long time
(since 1837)."
The immediate plans of the
University of Alabama School of
Eiufaineering include helping the
state's economic situation by
looking at ways to better utilize the
state's natural resources. The
schools plans to work with the areas
of natural gas, crude oil and coal
mining.
The programs at Auburn and
Alabama are similar in their aero­space,
civil, chemical, electrical
and mechanical engineering de­partments.
Auburn has a textile
engineering program and Alabama
does not. Alabama has a mineral
and metallurgical program, Auburn
does not.
Dr. Chester Carroll, dean of
Auburn School of Engineering, said
"The schools cannot be ranked or
compared. Each one should be
lookedat individually. Both are well
known and do their jobs with meager
funds."
Hatcher siad, "There is a great
demand for engineering graduates.
The state financial situation makes
it difficult for schools to respond to
the growing demand. This situation
has hurt us and you."
"Because of this tremendous
growth and rapid change in tech­nology,
facilities and equipment are
strained to the point where we have
an accredition problem," Funder­burk
said!. "We have not lost
accreditation In any of these pro­grams
and do not intend to."
Holsenbeck to act as go between for media* officials
By Buddy R. Davis
Special Assignments Editor
Media representatives who talk to
deans, administrators or depart­ment
heads may be asked to confer
with Dan Holsenbeck, director of
University Relations.
In an Administrative Council
meeting on Monday, Holsenbeck
said he asked for feedback from the
council on his proposal.
The proposal isn't meant to
become written policy, he said, but
to provide a common source for
information concerning the Univ­ersity.
A memo containing "Some of my
thoughts" was given by Holsenbeck
to his staff for response. Several
newspapers obtained a copy of the
memo, which proposed all depart­ment
heads, deans and administ­rators
contact his office after being
contacted by reporters.
The original memo said his office
"should be notified when an indiv­idual
administrator grants an inter­view
with a representative of the
media and the nature of such
conversation."
Holsenbeck said the proposal isn't
intended to " restrict or interrupt the
flow of individual faculty and
administrative contact with the
media."
He told the Administrative coun­cil,
comprised of deans and vice
presidents, the policy would only be
used when the situation concerned
statistics concerning the University
and no records of conversations
between the media and Auburn staff
would be kept. ; •
The policy is "based on policies at
other organizations and schools.
"We want any data about the
University to be as accurate as
possible. Everyone agrees we need
to release more information to the
press and public, not less," he said.
The proposal was developed this
summer, Holsenbeck said, as a
response to news reports about the
number of faculty leaving the
University.
He said he has talked to President
Hanly Funderburk and Grady Cox,
Executive Vice President, about the
plan and they both agreed it would
be useful.

'To foster the Auburn Spirit'
The chase begins
With the first pounding of the gavel and
Gov. Fob James' "State of the State" address
Tuesday, the 1982 Legislative session had
begun.
It started on a gloomy note this year. A
nationwide recession has struck Alabama
industry particularly hard, and James said
Tuesday night the state's unemployment rate
ranks second only to Michigan's.
The state does have more money to allocate
this year, though, including those dollars in the
state Special Education Trust Fund. Auburn
University will take a huge percentage of its
operating revenues from the fund for the-
1981-1983 fiscal year, which begins Oct. 1.
The University itself has requested $81.5
million from the Legislature, a 29.57 percent
increase over the $62.9 million it received last
year from that body. James has proposed that
the University get $71 million, a 12.88 percent
incrra.se. while the Alabama Commission of
Higher Education has recommended Auburn
get $81.67 million, a 29.84 percent hike.
The actual sum the school gets will probamy
be closer to the governor's numbers than the
other two, but it should nevertheless mean a
real increase after inflation, which is a marked
improvement over the past three years.
Auburn officials, along with students and
faculty, will testify before and meet often with
legislators during the session. We hope their
pleas are finally heard by the lawmakers and
that Auburn as a land grant institution is
finally given that share of the SETF it
inherently deserves.
One promise in the governor's speech was
especially longed for by administrators here.
James pledged that during the next fiscal year
there would be no proration.
If that promise is kept, and if the University
receives a sizable increase in funding, then the
financial corner may finally be turned.
Auburn could then at last begin to plan for
the future rather than make do in the present.
New policy hurts cause
Though watered down somewhat, a policy
proposed by the Office of University Relations
that was discussed by the Administrative
Council Monday still represents a trend the
University should shy away from.
Dr. Dan Holsenbeck, head of University
Relations, explained that the new policy means
that officials will have to report conversations
with media representatives when the talk has
concerned statistics. The new policy was
conceived after "erroneous" reports were
printed during the summer concerning the
number of faculty leaving the University, he
said.
The policy is better than the one originally
proposed, which would have made reports a
requirement after any interview, but it is
nonetheless not a healthy signal to send the
press.
Knowing that he may well have to report
some of the details of his conversation with a
reporter inhibits a source's willingness to talk
with anything but the most extreme caution.
Such impairs that source's right to speak his
mind freely without being censored (even in an
ex post facro situation such as the policy
outlines).
Because these sources become less willing to
talk without qualifications such as "off the
record, "the right and duty of the media to
gather news is also impaired.
Putting this stumbling block in front of
newspapers, television and radio is especially
dangerous for Auburn, which needs all the
friends in the media it can find to support it as it
drives for money from both the Legislature and
the Generations Fund. (
The new policy should be repealed as soon as
possible so the University will not make
enemies when it so desperately heeds friends.
No 'snow job'
The decision by President Hanly Funder-burk
to close the University for part of Tuesday
and all of Wednesday after an ice and snow
storm seemed the obvious choice, but many at
Auburn remember two previous occasions
when this was not done.
On Jan. 17 and 18, 1977, three inches of
snow and shortages of heating fuels put
Auburn in a crisis. However, President Harry
Philpott did not cancel classes; the outcry
probably led to the president's decision to close
school two weeks later when more inclement
wather hit.
On Feb. 10 1970, Philpott refused to
suspend classes because ot a severe winter
storm. As in the first case, many students who
had been home for the weekend were forced to
drive back to school in treacherous road
conditions.
After the 1979 incident, one Plainsman
columnist wrote he felt the administration had
gambled with students' lives by keeping
Auburn open.
In 1982, the Funderburk administration
decided that gamble was one not worth it.
Students and faculty at Auburn should be
thankful such an "obvious" decision was
made.
"The gift of life'
Auburn-Alabama.
Auburn-Tennessee.
Auburn-Georgia.
All of these are great traditional rivalries for
the University, each year producing much
excitement and generating much attention.
Perhaps the greatest rivalry, however, is one
Auburn has staged every year since 1967
against itself. Since then, the University has
tried unsuccessfully to break its world's record
donation to the American Red Cross of 4,812
pints of blood.
Of all the great contests, this one is the most
crucial, the one Auburn must strive hardest to
win. Victory on the playing field is minor
compared to the victory that is the difference
between life and death to a critically ill patient
needing blood.
There are no excuses other than physical
restrictions for not giving blood. The process is
quick-about 45 minutes from registration to
finishing the donation process, which itself
takes only about 5-8 minutes.
The process is also almost totally painless.
Red Cross offficals say the insertion of the
needle feels only as bad as "a bee sting."
We urge Auburn students, faculty and
administrators to give their share at the Haley
Centerlounge from noon to 6 p.m. Jan. 18-21.
No more positive note could be sounded in
begin 1982 at Auburn University than the
establishment of a new world's record for
giving to others.

AU-UA battle over money also
While the "good, clean hate" between the
University of Alabama and Auburn can be
witnessed clearly on playing fields, a more
significant aspect of that rivalry will play itself
out in the corridors of Alabama's capital in the
next four months.
The battle is for money from the State Special
Education Trust Fund, and Auburn and
Alabama, because they are the two biggest
takers from that fund, are the two toughest
combatants in the game.
The indication of a fight ahead came in a
hearing last week before a joint House-Senate
committee that included the men who will be
most influential in deciding the budgets of the
two schools.
Dr. Joab Thomas, the new president of the
University of Alabama, testified in the morning
at the hearings. When Auburn officials arrived
early that afternoon for their testimony, their
"spies" told them of Thomas' remarks, one of
which President Hanly Funderburk met with a
scowl.
Thomas had told the committee Alabama's
School of Engineering needed special consider­ation
this year. He brought industrial leaders
fromnorth Alabama to testify they would prefer
to have a strong engineering school located
closer to them-at the Tuscaloosa or Huntsville
campus, for example.
The implication was clear-Thomas had put on
the gloves, and he was going to fight for the
Steve
Farish
dollars allocated to engineering programs.
Neither Auburn's established school nor its
standing as a "land-grant" institution (which
means it has a legislatively recognized purpose
of providing collegiate training in technical
fields) would stand in the way.
The second indication the Crimson Tide
wanted to give a strong fight came from the
remarks of one of its law school graduates, Sen.
Finis St. John.
The senator questioned Funderburk about
what he perceived to be a "law library" at the
Montgomery campus. He insinuated Auburn
was building the library up to provide a base for a
future law school there.
Funderburk was taken aback by St. John's
charge. He assured the senator Auburn had no
such plans, and the only recent thought given it
was a Board of Trustees' resolution of about five
years ago that said if any new law school were
built, the board would support the building at
AuM.
St. John is not an agent planted by the
University of Alabama whose goal is simply to
make life difficult in hearings for Auburn. Like
him, though, there are many law school
graduates of the University of Alabama in the
Legislature's two chambers legislators who feel
little sympathy for Auburn's cause.
It is this type of "pre-trial prejudice" the
University will have to battle this year, too.
To his credit, Funderburk made a strong
statement on behalf of the School of Engineering
at Auburn. "We have the dominate engineering
school," he said. "As a land-grant institution, we
have that mandate from you."
Clearly no one at Auburn relishes the thought
of heating up the battle for the state dollar with
Thomas and the University of Alabama.
But Auburn must gird itself for that battle
regardless of what it wants in the "best of
possible worlds," for the real world requires the
University operate largely on state funds.
Statistics and persuasive arguments from
administrators will help the cause, but so must
students, like those who will go to Montgomery
next week in significant numbers with the SGA
Lobby Association, play a central role.
The opening curtain for the battlefield epic
has gone up. The first volleys have been fired
by the other side; now is the time for Auburn
administrators, faculty and students to answer
strongly.
On swamps and living in Bullard
I'd always wondered what life would be like
living in a hot, humid area near a swamp.
Now I have firsthand knowledge.
The geographical location and climate here at
Auburn are not what I am speaking of; I am
talking about living in Bullard Hall.
My pre-formed visions of dorm life faded away
soon after I moved in, soon indeed. Not only did
my mattress fold up when I sat down in it and the
drawers in the dresser refuse to open, but my
roommate and I also had to contend with "life
across from the community bathrooms."
That's not really such a bad place to be. It's a
convenient location-about 75 percent of the
time. It's the other 25 percent that can drive you
crazy.
First of all, our bathrooms at Bullard leave a
lot to be desired. Permanant unidentified stains
from 1952 still exist in bathroom sinks; flimsy
curtains form the barrier between commodes
and the general public, and a drain that tends to
erupt quite consistently at strange hours carries
forth in our community bathroom.
The first time that we experienced "drain
overflow," the girls on our hall gathered at
midnight at the bathroom entrance to watch the
horrid substances ooze up the drain and onto our
floor. After the sewage rose to about an inch
deep, reinforcements (in the form of graduate
resident assistants and maintenance men), were
called. But before they arrived, it began to creep
toward our door.
I don't mind saying that we kept a guard
stationed at our door to cry out loudly in case the
"swamp" decided to enter our room. Furniture,
clothes and important objects were thrown on
top of the bed; eyes glued on the entrance,
watching the sewage advance toward our room.
The "swamp" almost made it, but the
reinforcements arrived just in time. Our
valuables and lives were spared-but we were
definitely not spared the foul smell that lingered
on for a number of days.
After that close call, we kept an eye on the
bathroom drain, but it never erupted in such a
fashion as the first-until two weeks ago.
That's when the "great flood" came about.
The "swamp" decided to make its march
toward our door, at its usual hour of midnight.
Since the knobs on our radiator don't work, the
heater in our room was going full blast. My
roommate and I had been studying with
windows open and two fans working to ward off
some of the heat when we heard a terrible
scream. Running out the door and into the
bathroom, I found myself in the middle of a
lagoon. Feeling a slight dampness around my
sock-covered feet, I ran out and back into the
room.
My roommate and I quickly planned our
defensive action. Since the swamp was almost
out the bathroom door, we knew we had to act
fast. Once more the valuables went back on top of
the bed, and girls from down the hall took
advantage of the situation, finishing off the film
in their cameras while posing next to "the great
flood."
After our first phase of action (moving
valuables and clothes), we proceeded to call upon
the reinforcements again. After our predica­ment
was reported, we made our ascentto the
highest elevation in the room to wait for help to
arrive.
Meanwhile, we sat and sweated in our room
(which is possibly the sauna promised to Bullard
residents) and complained to anyone within
hearing distance about the conditions that we
live under in the dormitory.
When the flood began to creep under the door
and into the hall, we had sincere thoughts of
trying to sandbag the door.
I was standing on top of the bed screaming
when help finally arrived. My roommate was
also standing on her bed voicing her complainta
about where our money was being spent at a
range far above the 60 decibels proposed by the
Auburn City Council. We were told by GRA s
and maintenance men that we should calm down
and everything would be fixed.
We didn't know if we should believe them or
not.
But they did manage to get the swamp to
recede and disappear. They even promised to
send someone over the next morning to
permanently fix the drain.
We couldn't use the sinks on our side of the
bathrooms the next day, so the other side of the
bathroom was overrun with girls standing in
line.
Then, bright and early (about 11 a.m.),the
"fix-it" men arrived. They worked for quite
awhile and when finished, they proclaimed that
our drain was "fixed."
They even left us a corroded horseshoe as a
souvenir of their visit to Division S2.
The sewage hasn't overflowed again, but then
it has only been two weeks. We wonder how
confident the repairmen are that "the swamp"
won't overflow again.
Maybe that's why they left the horseshoe.
Lottery would bring state money
In case you have been blind to the situation at
Auburn, we are experiencing several financial
problems which are causing some detrimental
shake-ups.
We read in the newspapers every other day
about faculty and administrators who plead for
financial help to the state's legislators. Such a
plea arose this past summer when two of
Auburn's most prestigious schools, engineering
and veterinary medicine, were notified their
accreditations were in jeopardy because of
insufficient facilities.
The lifeblood of higher education is money,
but it has received inadequate transfusions
lately.
If the problem of allocating funds cannot be
easily solved, and the present recession would
indicate that a solution is not in sight, then even
larger problems loom ominously on the horizon.
State-operated lotteries have been one of the
most successful and fastest-growing legalized
gambling operations and revenue producers in
other parts of the country. In Illinois, receipts
from the lottery have increased 50 percent in the
last year, and in New York, receipts have
increased 70 percent.
Although these examples come from urban
states, where lotteries have traditionally
experienced heavy use, sparsely populated
states such as Maine, Vermont and Arizona have
also been gaining revenue from their lotteries.
Ah Alabama state lottery could provide a new
source of revenue for the state to work with in
making the budget.
It will, of course, cost the state money to set up
a lottery, but most state operations pay for
themselves within the first three to six months.
Within the first year of a lottery, a state
usually experiences a huge boom in sales. The
sales eventually level off and then continue to
bring a steady stream of income to the state.
If Alabama were to have a state lottery, it
would not only receive money from its own
citizens, it would also get money from the border
citizens of Tennessee, Georgia, Florida and
Mississippi whose states have no lottery.
Why would anyone want to buy a lottery
ticket?
The New York Times reported that Joseph
Dunn, director of the National Council on
Compulsive Gambling, says recently people
have been worrying about layoffs, so they take a
chance to make big money by buying a lottery
ticket.
However, a bus driver from Rock Island, 111.,
explained in the same report the lottery was his
number one entertainment because he and his
wife never have a chance to go out at night.
Unlike these two people, most will probably
admit they enter lotteries simply because they
want to win money.
The lottery does have its critics. Many
religious groups have argued the lottery only
encourages "gambling."Others say the lottery is
a hidden regressive tax which takes from the
poor while saving the rich.
The state may be taking advantage of
someone's vice, and that may aound deceptive.
Most states, though, are already doing
essentially the same thing with "tin" taxes on
liquor and tobacco.
Like these taxes, the lottery could make a big
contribution to society if it wsre uaed in a
contructive fashion, such as to aid higher
education.

A review of Auburn's 1981
Reader requests that witnesses
of June accident come forward
Editor, The Plainsman,
On June 2,1981, around 11 p.m., Shona Adams
was struck by a car on College Street just north
of the Thach-College intersection. She died of
her injuries on June 8, never regaining
. consciousness. The police were not able to find a
witness other than the driver of the vehicle.
It is the intent of this letter to reach anyone
who did witness this accident but failed to notify
the police of his account. Because this was not a
hit-and-run situation, it may be assumed any
eyewitnesses might have thought their testi­mony
would be of little help. However, Shona's
parents arenowfaced with the additional burden
of paying the large medical bills which inevitably
followed. If a witness came forward, her parents
may be able to process certain insurance papers
which would greatly ease the financial strain.
I cannot help but believe there are one or more
witnesses who have not contacted the police. If
you were such a witness, I ask you to contact
officer Bill Franklin of the Auburn City Police at
821-3000. Little of your time will be required.
Please get involved.
In closing, I would like to thank all the people
who were so kind and helpful to Shona's family
during her last week. We all miss her very much,
but the outpouring of sympathy helped to ease
the loss we all felt.

For purely neurotic reasons, Americans have
the insecure habit of "summing-up" years.
Every time another year slips by us into
oblivion, we panic and try to salvage it so it won't
appear as wasted as it actually was.
This task is performed for us by the news
media, which presents special shows that
"sum-up" the year.
You can always tell when a year is about to be
summed-up because a newscaster will come on
TV and say, "Welcome to tonight's special
program'1981: The Year in Review' or '1981: A
Look Back' or 1981: Bona Barrett Tells the
Juicy Details."'These shows then discuss such
topics as the air traffic controllers' strike,
Rubik's Cube, the royal wedding, the assassin­ation
attempts, and how to make them work for
you.
All of this goes over incredibly well, for the
United States is an extremely time-oriented
culture, and the loss of an entire year is not to be
trifled with. These programs are needed to help
us make it through the ordeal.They transform
the fading memories of a chaotic, wasted year
into a neatly-packaged, summed-up, wasted
year.
Following the shows, we complete the
summing-up process December 31 by having;
a dozen drinks with tiny umbrellas and driving
through our neighbor's mailbox.
This is how lost years are dealt with in this
country. Americans hate waste.
Through all of this, however, nobody bothered
to sum up the year for Auburn University and
put our minds at ease. I thought ThePlainsman
might do it with one of its chintzy supplements,
but it didn't; therefore, I will attempt it as briefly
as possible.
The stadium expansion was built, and the
Student Activities Building was not. Pat Dye's
job is relatively safe,and Fob James' is not. Black
athletes were in demand here, and black
students were not. Kenny Rogers was supposed
to come here, and Kenny Rogers did not.
Shirley Chisholm spoke on social problems.
Lisa Birnbach spoke on preppy problems. G.
Gordon Liddy spoke on being a fascist and was
heartily applauded. Alan Funt showed up for no
good reason.
The UPC got the Commodores for the 27th
time in six years. Also in concert were Hall and
Oates, Mother's Finest and The Ben Robuck
Five.
Bear Bryant beat us again; Vince Dooley
turned down our coaching offers again,and Lee
Hayley was last seen leaving town at 90 mph in a
U-haul van.
To keep busy this year, Auburn students gave
blood, booked into spring, cursed the property
tax, kicked the Moonies and laughed at Cindy
Lasseter. They got arrested for cocaine, posed in
Playboy and caught the flu (is there a
correlation?).
Auburn students watched soap operas, had
their beer taxed, turned up their radios to annoy
the City Council and wrote countless letters on
creationism to The Plainsman which nobody
read. They paid more tuition, drove to other
schools' libraries and if they were out-of-state
freshmen, didn't Show up at all.
On campus students demanded on-campus
alcohol. They also demanded improved housing
as well as draft beer. Then they marched. What
did they march for? Improved on-campus
draft-beer housing.
In the meantime, the Auburn administration
held closed meetings, acquired a new eagle and
cringed whenever the vet school was mentioned.
It "lacked faculty input," began the Generations
Fund Drive and celebrated the 125th anniver­sary
so heavily that it was unable to assign a
record number of classes.
Faced with staggering financial difficulties,
continuing proration, underpaid teachers and
floundering accreditations, the administration
quickly swunginto action. It built a new patio by
the concourse.
This was Auburn in 1981. Feel better?

Students offered seminars, advising
through Development Services office
Editor, The Plainsman,
I am writing to urge that you read our "Free
Seminars" ad in this issue.
It's a new year. Resolve to do something for
yourself: upgrade skills, improve relationships,
prepare for that first job interview. Our
counselors are trained to help you realize your
academic and career goals. Our seminars are
designed to introduce you to this service.
As legal adviser to students, I am aware of
your ability to recognize legal problems. As an
associate of career development counselors, I
have come to appreciate the difficulty of
identifying personal problems that interfere
with the achievement of career and academic
goals. For that reason, our seminars are
designed to help you recognize the type of help
you may need in achieving your goals. And if
one-on-one counseling is desired, our coun­selors
are prepared to provide that, too.
• I suggested that we tailor Seminar VI for
women. Our counselors were quick to tell me
that men are as interested in this as women!
What is Seminar VI? Turn to the ad and see.
We hope you achieve your 1982 goals and have
a happy new year!

Churches today only 'thermometers of superstition5
Editor, The Plainsman,
I am writing this letter to show Jeffery Kipi's
religious ethnocentrism is not an all-pervasive
phenomenon at Auburn.
Mr. Kipi's letter regarding pornography in
the University's bookstore is full of assumptions
that simply are not supported by studies of
reality that, on occasion, are objectively carried
Negotiators have
too much mistrust
Editor, The Plainsman,
It's sure nice to see the United States and the
Soviet Union trying to slow the nuclear arms
race again. Last month, Paul Nitze of the United
States and Yuli Kvitsinsky of the Soviet Union
were meeting near Geneva. This month,
Secretary of State Alexander Haig will continue
the talks with the Soviets' foreign minister
Andrei Gromyko.
Because of the sentiments expressed at prior
talks, I ask why at times like these, when we
have so much to gain from each other, we tend to
trust each other so little.
International Physicians for the Prevention of
Nuclear War has the theory which explains why
mistrust develops between adversaries. The
physicians say that mistrust develops as a
response to fear. The fear may be well founded,or
it may be unfounded. In either case, the
physicians say that we respond to that fear by
perceiving our opponents as more evil than they
actually are and by perceiving ourselves as more
good than we actually are.
Furthermore, the greater our fear, the more
unrealistic are the perceptions we have of our
opponents and of ourselves.
The physicians write, "An adversary comes to
be perceived as an enemy that is completely evil,
a process which impedes the discovery of areas
of common purpose and reduces the ability to
deal realistically with actual threat."
I hope our arms negotiators will realize
that we tend to over mistrust our adversaries
and so will put forth extra effort to make the
arms talks successful. The rest of us should be
sure to support their efforts; it just might be that
their efforts will save humanity for posterity.

out in our society. One of his most glaring
assumptions is there is a god!
What, I ask, are the requisites of godhood? Is it
possible for a god to exist if there are no
worshippers?Think about it.
Mr. Kipi talks about pornography but fails to
define it. Apparently, he assumes his moral
standards and his. concept of "pornography"
have objective reality and are therefore
universal. I dare say he is confused.
Mr. Kipi asks if it is liberty when a "man reads
a pornography book and then goes out and rapes
a 10-year-old girl to act out the things he has
read?" Yes, of course it is, just as it is liberty to
read the Bible and then go out and stone a witch
to act out the things you have read.
Mr. Kipi's espousals of America's freedoms
are contradicted by his desire to restrict them.
He seems to be saying reading about crimes
causes an individual to go out and commit
crimes. If that's the case, then what he calls
"pornography" can hardly be as destructive and
morally degrading to American society as the
daily news.
Letters like Kipi's invariably cause me to
become philosophical. To my mind, ignorance
and boundless credulity stand alone as the most
magnificent of man's so called "God-given"
talents. Consider those great monuments of
credulity, the churches. Monopolizers of truth
and legislators of morality for centuries,
churches are the thermometers of superstition
in our society, and as weeds running rampant in
the garden of reason, they are growing.

Editor, The Plainsman,
On Jan. 15,1929, in Atlanta, there was born a
small, black baby boy who would grow up to
become the greatest black leader in history. He
would dp more for the poor (white, Negro, etc.)
the oppressed and needy than any leader in our
history/ Born in middle class standing in
turbulent racial times, educated at Morehouse
College, Crozer Theological Seminary and the
graduate school of Boston University, he
recognized there were many of his race who did
not have equal rights, and if they didn't, he
didn't.
Martin Luther King Jr. gave his life serving
the rights of others, for he was also affected and
afflicted by inequality, racism and very few
rights.
In commemoration of this great world leader,
the Afro-American Association will be having
services tomorrow at 4 p.m. in the Auburn
University Chapel. The speaker for the services
will be former Auburn football standout the Rev.
Johnny Green.
Services will continue with a candlelight
march from the chapel to the Foy Union
Variety of opinions a healthy thing
Editor, The Plainsman,
On the "Opinion" page of the Nov. 19
Plainsman, one writer expressed her dis­agreement,
disappointment and disgust pro­duced
by aTim Dorsey article. Two articles were
earnest attempts to immunize readers against
beliefs expressed by Editor Steve Farish in a
prior edition. Be continually thankful for the
right to disagree and to communicate.
To many of us there appears to be one great
flaw in a society which permits freedom of
Student apologizes for UA fans
Editor, The Plainsman,
It is with great deliberation that I am writing
to you. For the first time in my life I sat in the
Alabama student section to watch the Nov. 28
Auburn-Alabama game. I am currently enrolled
for advanced study at the University of Alabama
after having completed my undergraduate work
at Auburn (1973).
The feelings I had before the game would be
hard to explain; however, I wish to express those
felt during and after the game.
First, let me apologize for the insolent
behavior of the alabama (sic) fans during the
playing of the Auburn alma mater. There were a
few on the alabama side of the field who still have
blue blood in their veins. The arrogant,
disrespectful, inconsiderate behavior of the
Alabama fans was totally uncalled for—totally
out of order.
Secondly, let me thank all the Auburn people
responsible for the game program—that showed
class, which was totally lacking in the
Alabama people. You showed class during,
before and after the game. All Auburn people
everywhere were made proud.
Coach Pat Dye has done a tremendous job to
this point, and there is no denying that he will be
one of the best in the near future.
The Auburn players were outstanding this
year, in victory and defeat. Not since the Shug
Jordanera.have I felt such love for Auburn, and
even though I still have another year at
Tuscaloosa, my heart will always be with
Auburn.
Thanks for being the very best.

thought and speech—everyone has this free­dom.
However, with the right to be "right" goes
the right to be "wrong," together with the
responsibility for the consequences-immediate
or delayed, expected or unexpected, beneficial
or disastrous.
In a nation of more than 200 million people of
varying degrees of intelligence (biological laws
were established before non-discrimination
rulings), variety is assured, even doubly assured
since emphasis has been centered on satisfying >
individual desires rather than on community
well-being.
By looking and listening, we can increase our
understanding of the beliefs and behavior of
people. One who appreciates either writing or
women can understand why Lynda Stephens
was upset by Tim Dorsey's article. After
observing our society during the past 50 years,
one is not surprised when Steve Farish's
philosophy is unacceptable to many of his
contemporaries. People learn self-reliance and
respect for others when these attributes are
necessary for their survival. For several years in
oursociety,they have not been necessary and are
seldom essential for those who are affluent.
I have no illusion (or delusion) of being a socio-politico-
economist. I do not know whether
"Reaganomics " unscathed by saboteurs would
have been a success or a failure. Observing the
total effect on this nation of years of "Play now;
Paylaternomics", I can see why it was time, past
time, for a change.

Auburn Conservation Effort offering seminars on how to save energy
Editor, The Plainsman,
The Auburn Conservation Effort (ACE)
opened itsoffice in the Auburn City Hall Jan. 11.
The first week the office is open will be devoted
to putting the finishing touches on organizing
the eight-week campaign.
ACE will be demonstrating how, for just two
to four hours work, the average household can
trim as much as 25 percent from its fuel
consumption. The community-wide campaign is
an educational, self-help program, the first of its
kind in the Southeast.
ACE will begin by offering free weatheriza-tion
materials through twenty or more "Home
Energy Assistance Training" parties, or "HE AT
Treatments". These are mode led after Tupper-ware-
type parties. Some of the hosts' free
weatherization materials will be applied in
hands-on demonstrations during the party.
HEAT Treatments may be held in a church,
peoples' homes, or elsewhere. Eight or more
people must be in attendance and the building to
be worked on must be within the Auburn City
limits.
Regular ACE weatherization workshops are
scheduled for 7-8:30 p.m. at the Auburn
Recreation Center on Mondays and Thursdays,
and at the EASE Adult Day Activities Center on
Tuesdays and Wednesdays, beginning the week
of January 18.
In addition, workshops will be held in room 102
of the Animal and Dairy Sciences Building on
Jan. 19 and 20 at 4 p.m.
All participants in the weatherization work­shops
and HEAT parties will receive discount
coupons for weatherization materials from local
vendors.
Persons interested in arranging a HEAT

Plainsman writers
Editor, The Plainsman,
We would like to express our appreciation for
the two columns by Monique Van Landingham
concerning the situation of housing at Bullard
Hall. Although we are freshmen, we also were
dismayed to find our conception of a dorm room
and dorm facilities in no way prepared us for the
harsh reality of Bullard. We also were unaware
of the unfulfilled promises the Chousing
authorities had made to the girls living at
Alumni who were forced to move against their
wishes.
Thanks to Monique's, two editorials, the
housing office has begun taking steps to
improve Bullard and to fulfill the promises made
to the girls who agreed to move in Bullard. We
cannot help but hope that all of the improve­ments
will be completed as. soon-, as possible.

Bill would protect
fetus'right to life
Editor, The Plainsman,
.. • • ii
In 1973 the Supreme Court removed legal
protection for persons not yet born in the Roe v.
Wade decision. This decision reversed what was
then a common assumption - that children not
yet born were protected by the Constitution.
Theresultof Roe v. Wade was not merely a legal
interpretation, but de facto, a legislative
decision. Like a growing percentage of the
population, I believe the Supreme Court's
assertion that the unborn should not be
considered "persons" and protected as such is
wrong.
Article I Section I of the Constitution declares
that "all legislative powers herein granted shall
be vested in a Congress of the United States
which shall cohsist of a Senate and House of
Representatives." Sen. Jesse Helms, (R-NC),
has introduced the Human Life Bill to restore the
rights and protection of the unborn. This bill will
legally define the child not yet born as a person
who deserves equal protection of the most basic
constitutional right j the right to life. The bill is
not an attempt to usurp judicial power; rather, it
is an exercise of the constitutional priviledge
granted solely to the legislature to enact
appropriate laws. (j
In this country, millions of children have been
denied the right to live.' If you believe, as many
do, abortion on demand is wrong because it
denies this most basic right, it is important that
you actively support this bill by expressing your
convictions to your legislators and by publicly
expressing your views. Exercise your constitu­tional
rights so the unborn will be given the
chance to exercise theirs."

Passion on paper
By Mary Lynne Hearne
Plainsman Staffwriter
His eyes narrow intently. "It
must be a passion that flows," he
insists, his hand sweeping forward
to illustrate. "Anyone who has to be
urged has no business trying to write
in the first place."
Oxford Stroud, professor of Eng­lish
at Auburn University, views
writing as more than a challenge.
"If a person really wants to write,
nothing in hell will stop him," he
believes. "It is a tough profession,
and few have success."
Auburn's Stroud relates ideas on writing
Stroud, however, has known suc­cess.
He has had more than two
dozen poems and short stories
published in various literary maga­zines.
He is currently working on an
autobiography.
His book, "Writing, It Makes a
Difference," published in 1978, de­scribes
his philosophy concerning
writing and is used in his advanced
composition classes.
Stroud says he works best in an
informal cluttered space such as his
office, which resembles a leafy
thicket because of its numerous
plants. Interesting relics are promi-
Nursing gets accreditation
for maximum time period
nently displayed inside, including a
4-foot armored knight, a necessity
he says he purchased for $25 to get
even with his wife when she bought a
$40 pair of shoes.
Stroud has developed a unique
style in the 31 years he has taught at
Auburn. Only two others in the
English department have been with
the University longer than he.
His classroom technique consists
of funny anecdotes and startling
statements such as, "There is nc
God,.'' which captures the interest of
students and leads into a lesson.
"Successful teachers use humor
to keep the class's, attention," he
explains. "The teacher who
rambles dully on is only indulging
himself. He doesn't make a point.
' 'God help the teacher who is like
stone and stainless steel. If he is too
academically straitlaced, nobody
learns."
Stroud has a keen awareness of
his environment. "Life is amusing
to him," Ward Allen, an English
professor and friend of 17 years,
says of Stroud. "Everyday
occurrences have meaning. He
keeps his eyes open when most
people's are half closed."
Jokingly terming himself "the
best poker player around," Stroud
claims the only reason he does not
win is because his theory is so
elevated that "they," the other
players, cannot get into his realm.
Therefore, he must come down to
theirs, and he loses, he says.
Friends call him "the best bird
hunte r in Lee County,'' while he says
itis just one of his hobbies. He is also
an avid fisherman, and he enjoys
entertaining friends with' 'old Hank
Williams renditions" on the har­monica,
said Dr. Caine Campbell,
associate dean of the School of Arti
and Sciences.
"God, please go into my Prince
Albert can 'cause if you don't,
my Aunt Becky'8 gonna kill me.
Please God, put yourself Into the
can."
He prayed and prayed until he felt
God had answered him. Then he
clapped the lid on and put God In the
Prince Albert can in his back pocket
and waited for Sunday.
Next Sunday in class, Aunt Becky
asked if each person had brought
God to class. One girl said she had
helped her mother wash dishes, and
that was how she brought God to
By Lynn Brown
Assistant News Editor
Auburn's School of Nursing re­ceived
full accreditation for eight
years following a review made by
the National League of Nursing,
Dean Mary Woody said.
The eight year grant of accredita­tion
is the maximum time period a
school can receive, according to
Woody.
For students of Auburn's newest
school, the accreditation means
they can be certain their education
meets the same quality standards as
other schools across the nation, the
nursing school dean said. Also,
accreditation will help students
seeking a master's degree else­where
to gain acceptance into
graduate programs.
"We're very excited about it,"
Woody said. "We were all very
thrilled. Students were calling the
office during the holidays to see if we
got it."
Since the accreditation is retro­active
for an eight-month period, the
24 students in the nursing school's
first graduating class in June are
included.
The accreditation process
actually began in August when the
University received notification of
the Alabama Board of Nursing's full
approval "with commendation."
Before the Alabama board's visit
last summer however, the school's
June graduates had to take a state
board test.
Of the 24 graduates, 96 percent
passed the exam. Woody said this
was "very high" when compared to
other schools with similar pro­grams.
The next step in the process
occurred in October when the
National League spent three days
"verifying, clarifying and ampli­fying"
what was stated in a self-study
report composed by Woody
and the nursing faculty.
Those representatives deter­mined
final accreditation, and
Woody received a letter Dec. 11
with their favorable report of the
nursing program and its recom­mendation
for full accreditation.
Woody said . accreditation for
the nursing school after only two
years in operation can be credited
to an excellent pre-nursing curricu­lum
in the School of Home Eco­nomics
for 16 years and "of course,
our faculty and bright students."

Profile
Oxford Stroud
AT EASE
. .An informal Stroud amongst his office relics
Born in Camden, Ala., in 1924,
Stroud grew up in Black Belt
country where, he says, a shell of
aristocracy remains. Hewas reared
in the antebellum home where his
mother still lives.
Stroud attended Oxford Univers-i
ty for two months during World War
II, Southwestern at Memphis for one
year and then transferred to Auburn
University where he received his
bachelor's and master's degrees.
He and his wife, Mary Ann, have
two daughters and three sons
ranging in ages from 21-29.
Stroud is noted for his stories
which illustrate his lectures. One of
his favorite is about Aunt Becky,
God and the Prince Albert can.
Aunt Becky was Oxford's Sunday
School teacher when he was a little
boy, he explains. One Sunday she
said for each person in class to find
God and bring him to class next
week. No one dared not do what Aunt
Becky said.
Stroud says he went home and
thought and thought for days and
days. How on earth could he bring
God to class? What could he do?
Finally, he had an idea. He would
pray God into his Prince Albert can.
So he got his can out of his back
pocket, took off the lid and prayed,
class. Another boy found the word
' 'God" in the Bible and brought it to
class.
Then Aunt Becky looked straight
at Stroud and asked how he had
brought God to class. And he told her
hehadGodin his pocket in his Prince
Albert can.
Aunt Becky's mouth dropped open
in disbelief. So Stroud explained how
he had prayed God into the can.
Aunt Becky was horrified. She
started carrying on and screaming
that he could not put God in the
Prince Albert can. He burst into
tears and ran out of the room to an
open field outside.
There he fell down on his knees
and opened the Prince Albert can
and dumped God out onto the
ground.
Not one to tell stories just for the
sake of taking up class time, Stroud
says there is a lesson to be learned
from this tale.
The lesson-most Utopias do not
last long.

CAUGHT IN THE ACT
•Hooking up to cable too easy for many students.
TeleCable From page A-1
Ashmore said that it "depends on
my discretion whether we give a
warning to violators or prosecute.
"We don't want to make it
unnecessarily hard on anybody, but
we 're not going to put up with people
generating trouble for us," he said.
Ashmore said that recently a
paying subscriber complained
when he returned to school and
found that his cable service wasn't
working. When a repairman
checked the connection, he found
that a former customer who had
been disconnected for nonpayment
had reconnected his old cable by
cutting off his neighbor's service.
"The guy's in big trouble," Ash­more
said. "Our paying subscribers
ask us why don't we do something
about this. We've got an obligation to
our paying subscribers-
"This is like shoplifting, and our
customers are footing the bill,"
Ashmore said.
Jim Pounds, a resident of Windsor
Hall apartments, said he has been
paying for TeleCable for months and
said that he's not bothered by the
thought of others not paying for their
reception.
"I don't think about it much," he
said. "I know a lot of people have
cable illegally, but I don't want to
risk it because I'd be the one to get
caught."
Lynn Reaves, another student
paying for the service, said that she
was bothered by bad cable reception
which was caused by neighbors who
had spliced into the connections at
the trailer park where she lives.
Ashmore said that robbing the
signal "damages our equipment
and damages the signal paying
customers are getting.
"You can't judge that you're not
hurting the system because your
illegal tap is coming in perfect. The
system is designed for only the
number of subscribers being
served."
But a resident of an apartment
bu i lding near the campus disagrees.
The resident said that five residents
in his complex have been tapped into
a paid service for five months, and
reception hasn't worsened.
"When we told the guy (the paid
subscriber) what we had done, he
was shocked because he said he
couldn't tell the difference ," he
said.
Ashmore said that several resi­dents
, living where cable is provided
by their realtors, get HBO reception
by throwing away the HBO trap in
the cable boxes.
"That way everybody in the
building gets HBO for free, and we
can't pinpoint who the culprit is,"
Ashmore said.
Ashmore said each trap costs
TeleCable $5, and culprits throw
away as many as 20 at a time.
According to Ashmore, all exis­ting
TeleCable boxes will soon be
fitted with locking doors developed
by him and the Auburn University
School of Engineering.
When asked why precautions
against break-ins weren't taken
before, Ashmore said that "Tele­Cable
didn'twanttogoout and make
a lot of enemies out of students.
Students are a good business here.''
Ashmore said that TeleCable will
soon implement a student discount
on the $14.95 installation charges.
"I know there are people out there
who are going to take a chance and
continue to tap into TeleCable," he
said, "and they're going to lose."

Business office takes on new look
By Dianne Lively
Plainsman Staffwriter
Services of the business office at
Auburn University have been reor­ganized
under five major areas
because of additional responsibili­ties
recently assigned to Rhett
Riley, business manager and treas­urer.
The reorganization was approved
by President Funderburk and be­came
effective with the new fiscal
year beginning Oct. 1.
"The reorganization is to make
the business office as responsive as
possible to the needs of the Univer­sity,"
said Dr. Grover Jacobs,
financial adviser to the president.
The five areas now reporting to
the business manager are Financial
Affairs, Assistant Treasurer, Physi­cal
Plant, Business Services and
Purchasing and Campus Security.
Where there were nine or 10people
reporting directly TO tne business
manager, we have been able to
reduce the number to five by
reassigning some of the responsibil­ities
and services under them,'' said
Jacobs.
Riley said the addition in recent
months of Physical Plant, Campus
Security and the office of Campus
Planner and Architect to his area
necessitated the reorganization.
John Burgess, director of pur­chasing
and procurement since
1966, was promoted to Business
Services and Purchasing. Most
changes have taken place in this
area, Riley said.
"I am responsible for the Univer­sity
Bookstore, the mail service for
the entire campus and the campus
telephone switchboard that handles
long distance calls," said Burgess,
adding that contracts for vending
machines and concession opera­tions
and licensing the University's
trademarks are also included in his
jurisdiction.
"One of the more important
additions to this area is the creation
of an Office of Risk Management for
which an additional person is being
sought," said Riley. Burgess said,
"The Office of Risk Management
bears the responsibility of all liabili­ty
coverage and insurance.
Riley explained that' 'it will be the
purpose of this office to develop an
overall program of risk manage­ment
and recommend to the Univer­sity
means of dealing with all types
of risks, including a program of
liability coverage that would In­clude
areas not now covered in the
state's plan."
The office of Campus Planner and
Architect now reports to the Physi­cal
Plant instead of the president,
Riley said. "There have been no
major changes other than more
authority for both the comptroller
and assistant treasurer for more or
the operational responsibilities in
those two areas," Riley said.
General Accounting and Finance,
Payroll and Employee Benefits,
Contracts and Grants Accounting,
Financial Information System,
Budget Planning and Analysis and
Property Control will now report to
Financial Affairs, under comptrol­ler
Jim McDonough.
Bursar, Investment Manage­ment.
Accounts Receivable, Stu­dent
Accounts Receivable and Stu­dent
Loans will now report to
Assistant Treasurer Ernest Phil­lips.
The areas and divisions reporting
to the Physical Plant directed by
Paul Kearney include: Campus
Planning, Maintenance and Opera­tions,
Custodial Services, Ground
Maintenance, Electrical Shop, Car­pentry
and Painting, Mechanical
Shop, Plumbing and Heating, Ware­house,
Construction Engineering,
Civil Engineering, Mechanical
Engineering and Industrial Engl-neering.
Business Services and Pur­chasing,
directed by John Burgess,
will handle Purchasing and Pro­curement,
the University Book­store,
Mail Service, Telephone Ser­vice,
Risk Management, Licensing
and Vending.
Campus Security, directed by
Chief Jack Walton, involves no other
services under the organizational
plan.
The business manager and treas­urer
reports to Jacobs.

Snow From fHigi* A-1
Not everyone enjoyed tne snow,
however. "My roommate hated it
because it was so cold," Steve
Hunsader, 3ME, said. "But I loved
it."
Other students were content to
just act as spectators. Some even
James to speak
Gov. Fob James is scheduled to
address members of the University
Senate at a called meeting Monday,
Jan. 18, at 1 p.m. in 2370 Haley
Center.
James will have a few remarks for
the faculty before he responds to
questions submitted in advance,
said Gordon Bond, president elect of
theFaculty Senate.
These questions should be taken to
the University Senate executive
committee, located in 203 Samford
Hall.
Bond said the questions will be
combined and put in order of
importance before presenting them
to the governor.
Afterward, faculty will have an
opportunity to ask James questions
from the floor, Bond siad.
went in search of solitude to build
various creations in the snow.
But most students, it seemed,
banded together. Fraternities hit
the streets in front of their houses
armed and ready to attack innocent
victims. The Phi Gamma Delta's
method involved stopping cars,
opening doors and bombarding
passengers trapped inside while the
Lamda Chi's stuck to latching on to
car fenders for a free ride.
Not to let these assualts go
unavenged, some students banded
together to challenge the aggressors
in warfare.
"We stockpiled a surplus of
ammunition (snowballs)," said
Mike Goss, 1PB, "because we
suffered such heavy casualties in
the last battle." Goss drove a
truckfull of students prepared for
battle.
During the rucus that ensued all
afternoon, campus security was
kept busy as officers tried to help
those stuck in the snow and prevent
people from hurting themselves.
Chief Jack Walton said Max Morris
field was blocked off to stop people
from sliding behind cars and pos­sibly
getting hurt.

Experiment Station, where we will
be trying to take up the slack caused
by federal cutbacks," he said.
"We are hoping also that we can
get the funding needed to bring
salaries up to a competitive level
and on a comparable level with
other universities," he said. "Of
course, this isn't anything new,"
said Holsenbeck, "we have been
working on this problem quite
awhile."
Holsenbeck noted that the sum­mary
reflected level funding for the
Ag Experiment Station and the
Cooperative Extension Service, a
situation that he thinks will change
when the governor presents his bill.
"We expect increases to the
Experiment Station to bring it above
level funding," he said.
After James' appropriations bill
is introduced by a sponsor in the
house, it will then be viewed by the
House Ways and Means Committee
and-or the Senate Finance and
Taxation Committee.
If either the house or senate is
unhappy with the bill, it can make
amendments or present bills of their
own.
Afterward , the details of each bill
are debated in committee hearing
until an acceptable form of the bill
surfaces.
From there the bill will go to the
floor where it is still subject to
dicussion and change.
Finally, the bill is either approved
in the regular session or carried
over to a special session, as last
year's bill was.
Using tough language in his
address, James pledged that he
would continue to try and keep a rein
on what he saw as unruly state
government growth.
When he first came to Mont­gomery
three years ago, "nepotism,
cronyism, andbuddyism were ram­pant.
I found a big bully that was the
system itself.
"Now, I wasn't a politician, but I
know better than most how to handle
abully. So I quietly walked up and hit
that bully right in the mouth as hard
as a I could and I drew blood, lots of
it, and the bully hollered."
James also made one promise
that will undoubtedly be welcome
new to Auburn administrators.
"You will not have proration" for
the 1982-1983 fiscal year which
begins Oct. 1, he pledged.
The governor's proposals for
other four year institutions ranges
from 6.2 percent for several schools
to 19.5 percent for the University of
Alabama at Huntsville. The major­ity
of the institutions James re­quested
between a 9 and 11 percent
increase.
After receiving budget proposals,
Funderburk commented "We are
generally pleased with the in­creases,
but we are still concerned
about our agricultural units." The
agricultural units were allocated
less than other units. "We got some
increases for a change, so we are
pleased," said Funderburk.
Dr. Gordon Bond, Faculty Senate
president-elect, said in response
to teacher salary increases,
"There are problems with infor­mation
in this state. When they say
teacher raises ,they mean kinder­garten
through 14, not four year
colleges such as Auburn and Ala­bama.
"Part of the problem is junior
colleges have no overall group to
oversee their expenses. They get
theirs, but ours depends on the
budget and how it is enacted.
"The government has not been
successful in getting a strong
ACHE," he added.
Holsenbeck said, "Although
pleased, we have no reservations
about defending our request for 30
percent. That was the minimum
amount we could request because of
our justifiable needs."

Fitness program may ease crime
V} Skipper Wilson
Plainsman Staffwriter
After five years, Auburn re­searchers
have discovered a com­bined
program of counseling and
physical fitness may be a solution to
juvenile crime.
Dr. James Hilyer, an assistant
professor of education at Auburn
University, said, "The idea of using
N exercise to make people healthier
mentally as well as physically is not
new." The difference with this, a
first year comprehensive study, is it
involved
The difference with this, a first
year comprehensive study, is it
involved adolescents, the elderly,
male prisoners and college students
with positive results.
Although the results varied from
person to person, the most promis­ing
result of the study was with
juveniles.
"Kids who were rebellious and
Pancheridies
of lung cancer
Lillian U. Pancheri, 55, associate
professor of philosophy, died of lung
cancer Tuesday in Houston.
Pancheri, who came to Auburn in
1972, founded the Ethics and Health
Sciences philosophy course. She had
a master's degree in philosophy
from Tulane University and was a
surgical pathologist.
Dr. Delos McKown, head of the
philosophy department, said she
always taught more students than
she was asked to and spent innu­merable
hours counseling and ad­vising.
"When one adds to this she was a
musician, amateur artist and re­storer
of old houses, one begins to
appreciate the range of her talents,''
McKown said. "Her loss to Auburn
students, her department and the
1 Tniversity is incalculable
Pancheri is survived by her
mother, son, brother and several
grandchildren, all of Houston.
exhibiting psychotic-like behavior
came more under control," Hilyer
said. "Kids whose self-esteem was
non-existent began to like them­selves."
The program consists of "mutual
physical fitness and counseling with
mutual participation. That is, the
counselors do the fitness activities
along with the kids," Hilyer said.
The fitness program is one of
"individual activities such as
weight training, distance running,
and flexibility training, *' according
to Hilyer. "The counselors and kids
set goals, talk about how they are
doing and how they feel, as well as
the counselors' providing leader­ship."
Hilyer said "the kids became less
anxious, less depressed, more opti­mistic,
and had more self-esteem."
He added since the program is an
individualized program, the kids
can see their improvement.
This study was conducted at
Mount Meigs' Boys Facility near
Montgomery, King's Acres, a
centerfortroubled youths in Auburn
and the Adolescent Adjustment
Center in Eufaula.
"The results were positive in all
three centers," Hilyer said. He
hoped the program will become
"part of the state's treatment of
juveniles.
"It might take some time for the
program to be a regular feature at
all of the state's youth centers
because of the time it takes to
publish results and to implement
new programs," Hilyer added. He
saw "no problem with the plan's
acceptance."
This program more than pays for
itself, according to the Auburn
study. In six months of use at Mount
Meigs' Boys Facility, the new
method of counseling saved the
state $27,720 in 1977. These savings
were because of the 30 kids in the
program who got out of the facility
an average of 66 days earlier than
the students not involved in the
program. .
Hilyer said Auburn has a new
course on the physical dimensions of
counseling which "will help to train
people in this type of counseling."
Previously counselors were those
proficient in physical fitness and
physical education majors who had
worked with kids who attended a
rigorus workshop that introduced
them to this method of counseling,
Hilyer explained.
This program could also help in
the schools around the state, Hilyer
said. "The public schools could have
physical fitness programs rather
than physical education classes.
' 'This would provide very positive
results for the kids in trouble in the
schools. This program could be used
as a developmental and counseling
tool in those schools.

Auburn to offer doctorate in economics?
By Lee McBride
Plainsman Staffwrlter
A proposal for a unique economic
doctorate program at Auburn is
being considered by the Alabama
Commission for Higher Education
and could be implemented as early
as fall 1982, said Dr. Robert F.
Hebert, head of the economics
department.
The proposal, which the Auburn
University Board of Trustees ap­proved
at its December meeting,
would make Auburn the second
school in the state to offer a
doctorate in economics. The Univ­ersity
of Alabama is the only one
that does at this time.
Auburn's proposed doctorate
program is unique because it is a
combined offer from the economics
department, the agricultural
economics department and the
forestry department, said Hebert.
Hebert said, the program's em­phasis
will be on allocation and
management of natural resources
and the application of economics to
these areas. .
' 'The actual cost of the program is
modest," Hebert said, and the
money for the program will come
from already existing funds. He
added provisions have been made in
the program for funding in case new
instructors are needed as the pro­gram
matures.
Hebert said the teaching staff will
consist of members of the eco­nomics
department who have grad­uate
faculty status, about three-fourths
of the department.
He estimated about three to five
students from the economics de­partment
will enroll In the doctorate
program the first year, and about
two or three other students will
enroll from the agricultural econo­mics
department and the forestry
department. %
The doctorate program- wi}l be
headed by the department heads of
the three participating schools.

Bond explained that there are
arguments for this, however, as the
faculty has a means of gaining
tenure, and the administration does
"But this doesn't make people any
more happy with the situation that
the administration generally makes
more than the national average, and
the faculty generally makes less,"
said Bond.

AU student chooses bicycle over automobile
John Peck of Huntsville doesn't
make it home from Auburn every
weekend, but when he does, it
doesn't cost him a cent. Not that he
bums rides with friends, but he goes
home on his bike. It's only a two-day
trip.
Peck says being on a bike allows
him to see "that little stream" and
other things he would miss if
traveling by car. He likes being on
the road with no pressures and no
concept of having to be somewhere
at a certain time.
The feeling of freedom is not the
only thing important to this bi­cyclist.
"It's economical and an
efficient means of transportation,"
he says. Peck has a car but chooses
to leave it parked at home in
Huntsville. That way he doean't
ha ve to pay for gas or car insurance.
The trips to Huntsville are small
time compared with John's other
trips. In 1976, he and his younger
brother, Carl, biked cross country
from California to Huntsville. Four
years later, the brothers biked
across Europe, covering 11 coun­tries.
Peck's interest in peddling cross
country began nine years ago with
his first 10-speed bicycle. It became
serious when he and his brother
started taking short trips, steadily
increasing the distance.
"Our first fairly long trip was
from Huntsville to Panama City,
Fla. After that we began to set
higher goals. We're pretty up on
setting goals and achieving them,"
he says.
The senior in journalism at
Auburn University says he prefers
to travel country roads on his trips.
He has never felt threatened and
seldom worries about accidents,
although once, after having
traveled cross country and through
Europe, he was struck by a car two
miles from home.
There are, however, other consi­derations.
Among the many things
that make a trip go wrong are flat
tires, broken cables, broken racks,
ripped backpacks, -worn-out tires,
bent sprockets, broken axles and
bad weather. In Europe, John and
OQIOBMOOOBOOOOOnfOOOOOfU
Carl had a total of 38 flats.
"The wind is a biker's worst
enemy," Peck says, "and while
most would think wet weather would
be worse, rain is actually better
because there is less friction be­tween
the road and the tires."
When a biker faces a strong
head wind and is unable to coast
downhill, biking can be tiring.
Occasionally Peck wonders,' 'Why
am I doing this?" But the good
memories will always be with him.
In 1976, when the Pecks were on their
United States cross country trip,
they stopped in Kansas City for the
Independence Day celebration, and
Pecksayshe, "got a good look at how
other people celebrate the fourth."
In Europe, they met people in small
towns and even did a short stint as
cherry pickers in Norway.
Despite the flats, bad weather and
sore muscles, Peck plans to be on the
road again. He's not planning any
big trips right away however; he just
wants to study hard, learn a lot about
the newspaper business and get his
degree from Auburn.
