Fire Regulations
Students living in apartments or
dormitories with unkept smoke
alarms, "pulled" fire alarms and
cramped parking
lots inaccessible to
emergency vehicles
have an alternative
for safer
living conditions.
" S t u d e n t s who
believe their housing
violates fire
ordinances should
complain to city hall's Planning
and Code Enforcements," said City
Inspector William H. Carmack.

Becca Scaife has been charged with
murder, manslaughter and filing a
false police report in the disappearance
of her 6-year-old stepdaughter,
Lakeita.
Scaife was arrested at 11 a.m. May
21 and charged with manslaughter.
The additional charge of murder was
added by Circuit Judge James
Gullage.
Scaife is being held in the Lee
County jail on a $177,500 bond.
Auburn University Police Chief
Jack Walton said Scaife will be found
guilty or innocent of either murder or
manslaughter, not both. He said it
was the judge's choice to charge what
he thinks is appropriate.
The girl's body was found by a
jogger Tuesday evening on a dirt road
off Cox Road. The child had been
missing since May 9, when she was
reportedly last seen in the bathtub by
her stepmother.
Lakeita had been visiting her
father, Desmond Scaife, at his home
in Carolyn Draughon Village. The
child had lived with her mother,
Sheryl Dixon, in Mount Vernon
Village.
P r e l i m i n a r y reports indicate
Lakeita drowned in the bathtub.
A memorial service was held Saturday
at Auburn Ebenezer Baptist
Church.
Walton would not comment of an
alledged confession or if there was
evidence of child abuse.
"It is a long investigation. We can't
jepordize it by giving out too much
information," he said.
Walton said they were still investigating
the entire case.
Captain Ed Downing of the Auburn
City Police said it might take quite
some time to wrap up the investigation.
When asked if Scaife came forward,
the city police officers said it was too
detailed to go into.
There is no evidence of shooting,
dismemberment or multilation, Walton
said, despite rumors circulating
that the girl had been decapitated.
Scaife is a senior at Auburn and
was expected to graduate June 10
with a degree in office administration.
The report of the disappearance
sparked a massive search for the
missing girl. The Auburn University
Police are in charge of the investigation,
with assistance from the city
police and the Alabama Bureau of
Investigation.
Posters were put up all over town
and volunteers helped investigators
and tracking dogs with foot searches
conducted around Auburn.
Scaife will go before the grand jury
in the fall.
A murder conviction carries a sentence
of 10 to 99 years of life in prison.
A manslaughter charge carries a
sentence of one to 10 years in prison.
Filing a false police report is a
misdemeanor.
Kiker pleads guilty,
sentenced to one year
By David Sharp
Staff Writer
Caren M. Kiker, 01 GC, of Birmingham,
pleaded guilty May 18 to
third-degree assault of WAUD radio
announcer Ken Walker and was sentenced
to one year in county jail, District
Attorney Ron L. Myers said. .
On the same day, Kiker and Birmingham
resident Kenneth "Neal"
Kirkpatrick also made a civil settlement
out of court with Walker for an
undisclosed sum, Myers said.
Kiker received the maximum sentence
for third-degree assault, which is
a misdemeanor in the state, Myers
said. Sentencing was done by Circuit
Judge Robert Harper, he said.
Kirkpatrick, who pleaded guilty to
second-degree assault of Walker,
received the maximum sentence of 10
years in the state penitentiary, Myers
said. Second-degree assault is a felony
in Alabama, he said.
Both will go before Harper again
July 10 for a probation hearing,
Myers said. However, he said, "I
doubt either one will get probation
based on the nature of the offense."
Walker suffered gashes to his head,
stab wounds on his back and a broken
tooth during the assault.
Kiker and Kirkpatrick are presently
out on bail pending the probation
hearing, Myers said.
The sentence and out-of-court settlement
stem from an incident which
occured in the early, morning of
March 1.

Students break traditional barriers
By Stephanie Warnecke
Assistant News Editor
You couldn't tell if you saw them on
the street or talked to them — they
seem like average run-of-the-mill students,
but most people would agree
they're not.
Marianne Webb and Cari Watson
are graduating with chemical engineering
degrees. Lesleigh Shewmake
is graduating with a degree in building
science. David Lauder is a senior
studying fashion merchandising and
Vernon Furlow is a junior in the
School of Nursing.
These students are minorities in
their classes, but it doesn't seem to
bother them.
"I'm usually the only guy. It really
sets me apart with the faculty and
students, and I like that a lot," Lauder
said.
Shewmake said it was strange at
first being the only girl, "but it doesn't
bother me anymore," she said.
This year two girls will graduate in
chemical engineering, one in building
science, two men in fashion merchandising
and three in nursing.
The reasons these students chose
these curricula vary.
Furlow and Lauder both had older
friends who encouraged them to
choose the careers they did.
"I had a friend majoring in fashion
merchandising who told me it was a
good career opportunity," he said.
Webb started in pre-med, but
switched in her sophomore year. "I
wanted something challenging, to
prove myself," she said. "I started
looking around and chose engineering
because it interested me."
Childhoods varied as much as reasons
for choosing the curricula did.
Watson was "mostly a tomboy"
while Webb called herself a "typical
girl."
"I wasn't all that much a tomboy,"
Shewmake said. "But I wasn't
involved with little girly stuff."
Furlow said he was always
involved in sports. Lauder, on the
other hand, "was not too sports-oriented."
Concern about acceptance in the
classroom seems unfounded. All five
students said they had little problem
with their classmates.
"I see them as sisters," Furlow said.
"They exhibit a lot of concern over
me. They're real protective."
In Webb's sophomore year, "one
guy half-jokingly told me to go back
to pre-med. It just made me more
determined," she said. "I proved
myself and never hear it anymore."
Watson said she is teased mostly
because she is the "curve-buster."
"We laugh, joke and kid around,"
she said. "I never get bad feelings."
"I don't think they treat me any differently
than if I were a guy," Shewmake
said.
An experience with a prejudiced
teacher wasn't uncommon among the
students.

Discipline committee's decision lies in Martin's lap
By Paige Dorman
Staff Writer
President James E. Martin is
expected to accept or reject the University
Student Discipline Committee's
recommendations in the case
concerning 11 members of the
Auburn Alliance for Peace and Justice
earlv next week.
The 11 students are accused of failing
to comply with University free
speech regulations during their silent
vigil Feb. 24 and 25.
Martin's secretary, Frances Stevenson,
said Wednesday the president
is away on business and will return
Friday. He had not received the committee's
recommendation by Wednesday.
Chairman Drew Ragan said policies
prohibit disclosure of recommendations
until the president is notified.
One of the accused students, Jack
Bergstresser, 09 HY, told the Student
Discipline Committee May 20 that
the protestors were urging the public
to discontinue support for the Contra
rebels.
During the May 20 meeting, all of
the Auburn Eleven entered innocent
pleas, contending that "the University
regulation (limiting the amount
of time allowed for Open Air Forum
activities) is not proper because it's
unconstitutional."
"We (the Auburn Eleven) think the
U.S. Constitution takes precedence
over University regulation," said
Mark Long, 06 PO.

Place to become
'one of the crowd'
By Rich Thigpen
Staff Writer
JACKSON'S GAP - Just 40
miles from Auburn is Alabama's
Special Camp for Children and
Adults (ASCCA) — a place where
those who are different become
just "one of the crowd."
Sitting on a peninsula at the
northernmost point of Lake Martin,
the 230-acre Camp ASCCA is
the world's largest camp for the
disabled.
Owned and operated by the
Alabama Easter Seal Society,
Camp ASCCA was opened in
1976 because a great need for disabled
people in Alabama was not
being met, according to Camp
Director Tom Collier.
"All of their other needs were
being met with the rehab centers,
physical therapy, occupational
therapy, and speech and hearing
training," Collier said. "But one
part of their rehabilitation that
was not complete was an opportunity
for leisure time experiences
like camping, recreation, and
outdoor education.
"Essentially, what we are is
just a camp that is open to
anyone, like the mentally or
physically disabled, to come to
summer camp," he said. "In addition,
we do camps at all different
times of the year, with a lot of
weekend camps.
"All different types of campers
come, from ages six through
adult, with all types of disabilities
— people with cerebral palsy,
muscular dystrophy, the blind,
hearing impaired, spinal cord
injured, hemophilia, and just
about every type of disability you
can imagine.
"They also vary in level of dis-a
b i l i t y . Some are severely
impaired and will need pretty
much everything done for them.
Others that come might be really
independent campers who are
just slightly impaired and can do
about everything on their own,"
he said.
Collier said the campers have a
full day when they come here.
"We do just about every activity
you'd find at any other camp. At
this time of year we do a lot of
swimming. We have a pontoon
boat ride, canoeing, fishing and
a good deal of outdoor education-type
programs. We even have a
nice little zoo-farm to teach them
about animals.
"Depending on the size of the
group, we do some adventure-type
programs like the treehouse
program, where campers are
pulled up to the top of a 30-foot
treehouse by climbing gear. We
also have a high wire, a rappel-ling
tower, a zip-line, traditional
arts and crafts, and each night
we do some type of evening program
like a campfire or dance."
Campers come mainly from the
67 counties in Alabama, he said,
but a good number come from
Georgia and other Southeastern
states. The camp serves about
3,500 campers during the course
of the year.
Collier said more than 100 people
work at the camp during the
summer, with about 55 of those

The student senate was treated
to a tour of the Jordan-Hare Stadium
addition Monday evening,
hosted by Frank L. McKenzie of
the University athletic department.
The expansion makes Jordan-
Hare the fourth largest on-campus
stadium in the nation,
and it also is second only to the
University of Tennessee in the
Southeastern Conference, McKenzie
said.
In all, the renovated stadium
will hold more than 85,000 fans,
he said, and there is always the
possibility to expand further in
the end zones.
The stadium addition includes
about 10,000 more upper deck
seats, 1,000 scholarship section
seats. 10 air-conditioned suiteb
and a lounge for the "A" Club,
which consists of former Auburn
athletes, he said.
However, seating for students
will remain unchanged, McKenzie
said.
But he said the students' seating
problems may be eased
because there will be less "overflow"
from non-students than in
the past. These non-students will
now use the new seating in the
upper deck, he said.
The "A" club lounge was paid
for by the club and is open only to
members, McKenzie said.
Members will watch the game on
closed circuit television, and food
will be catered by the University,
he said.
The seats in the scholarship
level, underneath the upper deck,
will cost $1,000 per season,
McKenzie said.
The seats in this section were
originally planned to be enclosed
and air-conditioned, but he said
they were left open to cut costs.
This area also will be catered by
the University, he said.
The suites are contained on two
levels above the scholarship section.
They consist of the president's
suite which has 89 seats,
one suite with 30 seats and eight
suites which have 18 seats, he
said.
The suites are being bought
mostly by corporations, McKenzie
said. Each seat in the suites
costs $2,000 per season, he said.
However, those who can afford
the suites will watch the game in
style. The suites are glass-enclosed
and air conditioned.
Each suite contains closed-circuit
television monitors with
cable, a sound system, couches,
plush carpet and men's and
women's restrooms. The suites
will also have food catered by the
University, he said.
Several of the suites have
already been reserved, including
the 30-8eat suite by Chairman of
the Colonial Bank Group Bobby
Lowder, McKenzie said. "But we
don't plan on leasing them all the
first year," he said.
Alumni will be hesitant at first
because "you don't want to buy it
until you see it," McKenzie said.
However, he said he is confident
all will be leased in the future.
Before next season, the old
president's box on the press box
side of the stadium will also be
enclosed and refurbished. These
will be leased like the suites, he
said.
The field is presently being dug
up and pipes added so the field
will drain better, McKenzie said.
"We're always striving to have
one of the best fields in the
nation," he said.

The Lee County Health
Department, located next to East
Alabama Medical Center in Ope-lika,
provides the residents of the
county with services for the prevention
and control of disease
and the overall well-being of the
individual.
According to Nursing Supervisor
Betty McCreery, R.N., the
health department offers such
services as free pregnancy test-,
ing, family planning (birth control),
pre-natal care, well child
care, cancer detection, sexually
transmitted disease (STD) detection
and testing for tuberculosis
at the Opelika clinic.
McCreery also points out that it
has re-opened its satellite clinic
on Boykin Street, just off Highway
14 in Auburn. This clinic
offers immunizations and family
planning services on Thursdays
from 8 a.m. til 3:30 p.m.
McCreery said that "at the current
time there are no charges for
services" except for family planning.
The distribution of birth
control pills is based on a "fee
system determined by the
number of people in the family."
Since a single student is considered
an entire family and most
likely has a low income, the student
can expect to receive birth
control pills at a nominal cost, if
not free, she said.
McCreery said, however, that
this process may soon change
due to a bill pending in the state
legislature to force the public to
pay a "fee for service."
In order to receive family planning
services, the patient must
come in for a full examination,
including a Pap smear.
One student who has been a
patient at the clinic says "the
staff was really nice and efficient.
I was in and out in five
minutes." She also said they
"asked to see my driver's license
and for proof of my local address"
before admitting her.
The health department is federally
funded and is an "entirely
separate agency" from East Alabama
Medical Center even
though it is right next door. They
do send their maternity patients
there for delivery, though.
The staff consists of eight registered
nurses, one practitioner,
one aide in the nursing program
and a pediatrician who comes in
once a month.
McCreery said that at the clinic
in Auburn, there's no need to
make an appointment, but in
Opelika appointments need to be
made about a month in advance.
McCreery pointed out that
everything that takes place at the
clinic is "strictly confidential"
and all patients are asked "where
to send information."
If a patient is diagnosed as
having any of the STDs, such as
syphillis, the patient can receive
treatment at the clinic. The
Health Department will not notify
anyone without his or her
permission.
Also, if a patient receives a positive
pregnancy test, the clinic
will offer counseling and/or refer
them to a private physician.
The health department is open
from 8 a.m. til 5 p.m. Monday
through Friday, and the office
phone number is 745-6765.

Grads' code being reviewed Careers continued from A-l
By Colleen M. Moran
Staff Writer
About two years ago, interest
began in the Graduate Student
Senate to form an organization
independent from the Student
Government Association (SGA),
said Rick Cantrell, president of
the interim Graduate Student
Government.
An interim government and
senate was set up so the students
could draft a proposal to submit
to the committee established by
President James E. Martin.
"President Martin set up an ad-hoc
committee to study graduate
student governments last year,"
said Pat Barnes, co-chairman of
the ad-hoc committee and vice
president of student affairs.
"When we decided to form a
separate graduate student
government, the committee
asked us to submit a constitution
and code of laws for review,"
Cantrell said.
After the constitution and code
of laws have been submitted, the
committee will make recommendations
about the graduate student
government to Martin, who
will take it to the Board of Trustees
for a vote, Barnes said.
The Graduate Student Government
has used the SGA's documents
as a model. "We feel they
have worked well for them. Ours
differs in the aspect of applying
more to graduate student needs,"
Cantrell said.
"Right now, we are about to
review the revised version of the
first set of codes and laws as well
as the constitution," Barnes said.-
Because the Gradute Student
Government is new, "we submitted
our code and constitution to
the committee, and we made
some mistakes. They made suggestions,
we revised and resubmitted,"
Cantrell said.
Martin's committee "recommended"
a cut in the number of
committees originally included
in the first set of codes and laws,
Cantrell said.
"All members of the committee
have a copy of the revised edition
of the constitution and code of
laws, and we are trying to set up a
meeting date now," Barnes said.
No one is sure when the complete
constitution and codes and
laws will be ready for review by
Martin. "We are trying to address
issues thoroughly and completely.
We feel this is more
important than the length of
time," Barnes said.
"The committee has 10
members who are active and
vocal. This is very important, but
keeps things from happening
quickly," Barnes said. The committee
may not make a motion to
vote until it thinks it is time and
the documents are well-written,
she said.
"The committee has not
addressed the issue of finances.
We have no idea what will
happen," Cantrell said. "Presently,
there is no money, so all we
can do is lend our support," he
said.
"It is my understanding they
want to enhance issues unique to
graduate students, if they had a
separate government," Barnes
said. Upon request by the committee,
these documents are written
and designed to address the
graduate student population, she
said.
"I want all of this to happen
faster. I have been working on
this whole thing for two years,"
Cantrell said. He said the
government will not benefit himself,
but "it's important that it
benefits others," he said.
The Graduate Student Government
is working with the SGA on
the foreign student VISA Program,
Cantrell said. "We are also
looking into helping graduate
students with health insurance,
waivers for tuition, tax problems,
and forming a day care center for
their children," he said.
"Many things we would like to
develop have to wait until the
money comes in hopefully somewhere
around fall quarter.
"President Martin has said he
wants to increase the number of
graduate students. We think this
is great. Teaching won't suffer;
we think this will help attract
better teachers," Cantrell said.
"We are at the working-out
stage now, but it's looking good.
All of it is important, and we have
noted the need," he said.

In my first quarter, I had a
professor who wouldn't let girls
go to the board. Second quarter
he did, though," Watson said.
"I had one professor in my
sophomore year who I felt didn't
think I should be there," Webb
said. "I had another professor
who supposedly would not give
girls above a C. I got a B," she
added.
"Most professors are as open
and understanding as they could
be. Some wonder why I'm in
building science," Shewmake
said. "One or two seem not to like
me because I'm a girl — mainly
the old-timers," she said.
"One professor asked me what
I was trying to do," Furlow said.

said. "I'm sure they realize it's
difficult being in a female-majority
major."
"It seems they would take more
notice of me than a male, but I
never received a grade because of
it," Shewmake said.
The transition into the job
place won't be as hard as
expected, the students said.
"I will be prepared pretty well,"
Furlow said.
"I don't think it will be as difficult
as a lot of people think,"
Shewmake said. "At times it will
be hard, but I don't think there
will be any overt discrimination."
"I don't see the transition as
being that difficult," Webb said.
"I will probably come in contact
with people who will think I don't
belong there, though."
"I'll feel like I have to prove
myself, to know what I'm doing
more than a guy," Watson said.
"I'm not sure that's how they'll
feel, though.
"There are enough younger
people who've accepted women
as engineers," Watson said, that
the problem should not be
extreme.
"Engineering is a great area for
.women right now," Webb said.
"The opportunities are really
there, and there is a certain
amount of preference for
women."
"You need to have the courage
to do what your heart's calling
you to do, despite ridicule," Furlow
said.

FALL
Athletics again played a key role in University
life, with the football team kicking off the season
with seven straight wins en route to a fifth-straight
bowl appearance. The Tigers entertained
three foes at home to begin the season, downing
the University of Tennessee-Chattanooga 42-14,
East Carolina, 45-0 and Western Carolina 55-6.
Defending SEC champion Tennessee ventured
to Auburn and suffered a 34-8 defeat before a sold-out
crowd. Tailback Brent Fullwood ran amuck,
totaling 207 yards and one touchdown, enough to
earn him SEC Offensive Player of the Week
honors. Vanderbilt, under new head coach Watson
Brown, held the Tigers in check during the
second half of the contest, but Auburn won anyway,
31-9. The Tiger machine continued to roll
along, adding wins over Georgia Tech, 31-10, and
Mississippi State, 35-6, before traveling to Florida
Field to take on the tough Gators.
Auburn and Florida both had records of 7-0
before the battle, and the Tigers had not won on
the Gator turf since 1972. A strong 17-0 lead looked
to be enough for Auburn, but Flordia quarterback
Kerwin Bell, who sat out the first half with an
injury, came in and directed one of the greatest
comebacks of all time. Auburn left the Sunshine
State with an 18-17 loss and renewed spirits for the
rest of the season. The Tigers returned home to
defeat Cincinatti — before a homecoming crowd
and made preparations for the big game against
Georgia. Hanging in the balance was a possible
SEC Championship, but the Bulldogs bit the Tigers
all night long and took a sweet 20-16 win back
to Athens. The bright spot of the game was Tiger
linebacker Kurt Crain, who recorded 26 tackles, 19
of them solo stops, and was named SEC Defensive
Player of the Week.
The Tigers took two weeks off for the annual
Iron Bowl clash with cross-state rival Alabama,
who had won the previous two meetings by a combined
total of four points. This year it was
Auburn's turn to claim "bragging rights," as the
Lawyer Tillman reverse with less than a minute to
play put the Tigers on top for good, 21-17. A clutch
fourth-and-three catch by receiver Trey Gainous
on the rain-soaked Legion Field turf enabled
Auburn to continue the drive. Auburn then tackled
bowl game veteran USC in the Citrus Bowl on
Jan. 1, claiming a 16-7 win and a 10-2 worksheet
for the 1986 season.
The men's cross-country track team also
claimed a big win in the fall, taking a victory from
the always dominant Tennessee squad in Knox-ville.
It was the first time the Volunteer team had
been beaten by an SEC opponent in six years.
Women's volleyball was also formed at Auburn
last fall, under the direction of head coach Pat
phastin. A former coach at Georgia, Ghastin laid
the foundation for future successes of the Lady
Tigers. ,
WINTER
The chilly winter winds brought in the news of
Brent Fullwood's absence from classes during the
fall, though be continued to play football. The
ensuing furor from the faculty and administration
prompted Athletic Director and head football
coach Pat Dye to install a new class attendance
policy for the athletes.
Basketball was in full gear, and the Tigers had
aroused the Orange and Blue faithful with a lofty
No. 5 ranking. Head coach Sonny Smith wasn't
impressed with the early notoriety and watched
his team roller-coaster throught the season. The
Tigers opened up the SEC season with a home loss
to defending SEC champion Kentucky, 63-60.
From that game on, the Tigers were known as a
team that fell behind in the first half and then
scrapped back in the second, only to lose or win a
close one. Auburn ended the year with a 9-9 conference
mark, which included two close losses to
Alabama and a big win over Florida, which
knocked the Gators out of coptention for the SEC
crown. Auburn also hosted the University of
Nevada-Las Vegas Runnin' Rebels, losing 104-85
before a national television audience.
In the SEC Tournament, Auburn stiff-armed
Kentucky, avenging the two regular-season losses
and then fell to Alabama, who won the tournament
championship title the following day.
Auburn received its fourth bid to the NCAA Tournament,
winning the first game 62-61 over the San
Diego Torreros. The Tigers then faced eventual
national champion Indiana, at the Indiana Hoo-sierdome,
and lost 107-90.
The swim teams dove head first into their seasons,
with the men dropping a close meet to powerful
Texas in Atlanta. Though the Longhorns kept
some of their top swimmers out of the meet for the
following day's contest against Florida, Tiger
head coach John Asmuth was pleased with his
s'quad's competitiveness. At the SEC Championships
in Tuscaloosa, the men finished fifth and the
women's team, which took a win over tough
Miami during the season, ended the competition
in sixth.
Tiger diver Jose Rocha took the SEC and NCAA
1-meter diving championships, becoming the first
Tiger diver to win a national crown. Rocha's
coach, Rick Theobald, was named NCAA Diving
Coach of the Year at the NCAA Championships in
Austin, Texas.
The Lady Tiger basketball team had its most
successful season ever. It won the SEC Tournament
and regular-season championship before
making it to the finals of the NCAA Mideast
Regional championship, where it lost to eventual
national champion Tennessee. Sophomore center
Vickie Orr was a mainstay for head coach Joe
Ciampi's team and earned MVP honors at the
SEC and Mideast Regional Tournaments. She
was also named Ail-American by KODAK, joining
former hardcourt star Becky Jackson as the
only Lady Tiger All-Americans. Orr was also
selected as a member of the team competing in the
World Games this summer, which will be played in
Zagreb, Yugoslavia.
SPRING
The departure of the winter storms brought in
spring football, which was Pat Dye's seventh here
on the Plains. Spring drills saw the Tigers suffer
numerous injuries, the severest of which may be
defensive tackle Ron Stallworth's knee. Stall-worth,
one of the pillars of the defensive front,
required surgery and may be forced to miss several
games this fall. The May 2 A-Day game saw the
Blue team down the White 10-7 and prompted Dye
to say "...we have a long way to go before the
season starts."
Brent Fullwood was again in the news, this time
for reportedly accepting money from a New York
agent before his eligiblity ended. Fullwood joined
several other athletes across the country in these
illegalities, which has prompted the FBI as well as
the NCAA to investigate further.
The baseball team also had its best season ever,
with head coach Hal Baird's nine receiving its
first NCAA hitch ended the year with a 42-18
record, were downed by Clemson in the third
round of the semi-finals of the South I Region
tournament bid at Huntsville's Joe W. Davis Stadium.
Auburn narrowly missed a regular-season
SEC championship, finishing just a half game
behind Georgia in the title race.
Four Tigers were named to the All-SEC squad:
Outfielder Rock Wilson, first baseman Frank
Thomas and pitcher Gregg Olson. Third baseman
Kevin Henry was also named to the second-team
All-SEC squad. Thomas and Olson were invited to
try out for the USA Senior Baseball Team, which
will be traveling to the Far East, Canada and
Cuba for games this summer. The tour will end at
the Pan-Am Games later this year, where a first- or
second-place finish will send them to the 1988
Olympics in Seoul, Korea.
In golf, Margaret Piatt captured her first SEC
Individual Championship at Callaway Gardens.
She beat NCAA Champion and Georgia star
Nanci Bowen in sudden-death for the crown.
Piatt's effort also helped the Lady Tigers take a
fourth-place finish in the tournament.
In men's play, the Tigers finished sixth in the
SEC Tournament at the Turtle Point Yacht and
Country Club in Florence. Seniors Mike Arasin
and Gary Emmons earned individual honors at
the event, with Arasin shooting the lowest score
and Emmons being named to the All-SEC team.
In track, the men's team ended the season with a
fourth-place finish at the SEC Championships in
Tuscaloosa. Distance runner Brian Jaeger took
top honors in the 5,000-meter run with a time of
14.19.
Former basketball star Chuck Person, now with
the Indiana Pacers, was crowned Rookie of the
Year by sportswriters across the nation. Person,
who finished his career at Auburn as the all-time
leading scorer, led the Pacers to their its playoff
appearance in six seasons.

Entertainment
It's over. Another year in the world of Auburn
entertainment. Some memorable and some not-so
memorable events took place and a retrospective
ride down entertainment road recaps the
highlights.
FALL
Probably the most entertainment-filled term of
the year. The most prevalent event was probably
Homecoming Week. Auburn frequenters The
Newboys kicked off the week and juggler/comedian
Michael Davis followed the next two nights.
Jimmy Buffett and his Coral Reefer Band
played the night before the game to round up a
week of fun.
Like every other quarter, fall was filled with
fundraisers and band parties boasting the many
area bands — The Extras, Sidewinder, Revolver,
The Targetz, Kidd Blue, Mr. Resistor, The Cartoons,
Radio Berlin, Mel and the Party Hats, etc.
If your favorite band wasn't at a fraternity
house, chances are it was at one of the local Hangouts:
Hooligans, The Supper Club, The Alamo,
Rusty's, Denaro's or Darnell's.
WINTER
The UPC brought us columnist and good 'ol boy
Lewis Grizzard at Memorial Coliseum; Huey
Lewis and the News with Robert Cray performed
before 10,000 students in February.
Humanism vs. Christianity was debated by
Auburn's philosophy department head Dr.
McKown and preacher Dr. Geisler.
On an artistic and cultural level was the theatre
department's production of Peter Pan and the
SPRING
After spring break, students returned to school
to find Harry's bumper pool a new diversion in
Auburn fun. The opening of Rusty's, Too soon
became a haven for those too scared to enter the
original Rusty's. The rest of us said good-bye to a
good friend.
Annual Greek Week festivities were held at mid-quarter.
Sorority and fraternity members got
together to have a good time during the afternoons,
and if competition entered the game, that
was fine, too.
Chewacla State Park was given its yearly revival
with springtime sun worshippers for those
sleepy weekday afternoons and for students who
couldn't afford to hit the beach on the weekends.
Also for the budget-minded student were free
movies at Langdon Hall presented by the UPC.
An exceptional year for movie programming
resulted from hits such as Top Gun with Tom
Cruise, Rob Reiner's Stand By Me, Alice Walker's
The Color Purple and the untimely The Big Chill.
While Crocodile Dundee showed at a local theatre,
it played at Langdon as well. Cruise graced the
screen one more time, but with a bigger head of
hair, in The Color of Money.
On a larger scale were the movies brought to
Carmike and Litchfield. Films such as Crimes of
the Heart, Children of a Lesser God, Blue Velvet
and The Mission got the green light from critics
and audiences nationwide. Others such as Light
of Day with Michael J. Fox and Some Kind of
Wonderful were made to simply entertain their
viewers.
Bad movies appeared in their usual abundance,
and since no one seems to agree on which were the
worst, they will remain unmentioned.
Music. Where do we begin? The past three quarters
seem to have been a time of cover songs by big
names. From the Beach Boys' remake of "California
Dreamin'" to Cyndi Lauper covering of Marvin
Gaye's "What's Going On," artists found a
gold mine in taking something from someone else
and giving it a second go-around, unlike Ben E.
King who decided to simply re-release his own
song from the '50s, "Stand By Me."
More recently is Club Nouveau's revival of Bill
Withers' "Lean On Me" and Kim Wilde's "Keep Me
Hangin' On," originally done by The Supremes.
Making their big names even bigger were Bon
Jovi (Slippery When Wet), Prince (Sign O' the
Times), Tina Turner (Breaking Every Rule), U2
(The Joshua Tree) and David Bowie (Never Let Me
Down).
And while we're on a top-40 level, what about
semi-new faces in the world of music? Steve Win-wood
made a comeback with Back in the High
Life, Crowded House said good-bye to the progressive
music charts and Bruce Hornsby and the
Range (The Way It Is) put itself in the spotlight
along with a host of other acts not previously
well-known.
And that is the way it is. Another year over and
another one in which to speculate. Improvements,
disappointments and imponderables abounded.
The beauty of entertainment, however, is that one
man's idea of disappointment can be another's
idea of improvement.
Campus Front A ( ami Campus Front A
The year 1986-87 came in during a drought and
left with thunderstorms.Times were a-changing
and Auburn was no exception. Students saw new
beginnings and continuing problems.
War Eagle VI came to campus after War Eagle V
passed away.
Toomer's Drugstore was sold this time to
Auburn alum Mark Morgan.
It was a year of lawsuits.
Five professors, in departments ranging from
textile engineering to pharmacy, filed suits claiming
they were discriminated against because of
their age. They cited younger, less experienced
professors with higher salaries.
Five mechanical engineering professors filed
suit against the University after they were moved
to other departments without their consent. Only
one of the five, Professor John Turner, won in
court.
Ben Hammond, a former electrical engineering
major, claimed the University violated his right to
due process of the law by not allowing him to
graduate under the graduation requirements
listed in the course catalog in effect when he
enrolled in the summer of 1982.
More recently, 11 members of the Auburn
Alliance for Peace and Justice filed suit against
the University, claiming their first amendment
rights were violated. The Auburn Eleven were
called before the Disciplinary Action Committee
after they spent the night in front of the Eagle's
Cage, in violation of the 4:30 p.m. curfew.
Bret Pippen, news editor of The Plainsman,
threatened the administration with a lawsuit
when it withheld the contract between the University
and Algernon Blair, the contractors of the
new conference center/hotel on College Street.
It was a year of student arrests.
Caren Kiker, 01, was arrested and charged with
first-degree assault and first-degree kidnapping.
Her case comes to trial next week.
Becca Scaife, 04 VO A, was arrested and charged
with murder, manslaughter and filing a false
report after the body of her 6-year-old stepdaughter
was found. She will go before the grand jury in
the fall.
Marvin Johnson Lowry, 03 PB, was arrested
after failing to register with county authorities as
a convicted sex offender.
It was a year of debates.
The legality and morality of abortion was still a
big issue on campus. It was hotly debated in the
letters pages of The Plainsman.
Professor Delos McKown kept the debate
between humanism and Christanity at the tip of
everyone's tongue. Plainsman Editor Chris
Roush finally banned the subject from the editorial
pages as well as the letters pages.
The decision to change Auburn to the semester
system was a 2-year-old debate that was finally
settled with the University senate voting to
remain with the familiar quarter system.
The graduate school hung in limbo as it tried to
decide whether to form its own government or stay
with the Student Government Association. In the
end, a graduate student senate was established
and a president's committee was formed to
recommend whether the graduate school should
have an independent government.
Teaching v. research caused discussion on campus
as to which was more important.
It was a year of political new beginnings.
Guy Hunt changed Alabama politics when he
became the first Republican governor in 112 years.
The Democratic primaries were marred by the battle
between Lieutenant Governor Bill Baxley and
Attorney General Charlie Graddick and the
debate over who the real winner was.
Harold Melton also made history when he was
elected, by an overwhelming majority, the first
black Student Government Association president
in the history of the University.
It was a year of danger.
The rugby field was declared to be a potential
chemical dumping site and added to a U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency list of 479 sites in the
state to be tested for possible hazardous waste
contamination.
Confused Red Flour Beetle larvae found their
way into the flour used to make gravy in War
Eagle Cafeteria. The larvae were apparently a
fairly common grain pest and no real danger to the
connoisseurs of the cafeteria's food.
It was another year of construction.
The stadium was finally finished and the construction
crew moved across the street to begin
work on the conference center/hotel.
The Board of Trustees authorized the issuance
of $24.1 million in Housing and Revenue Bonds to
be used in a several phase remodeling of the Hill
Dorms to remove asbestos.
Students approved a referendum to build a new
pool during the SGA elections. The pool, if
approved by the Board of Trustees, will be
financed by the athletic department and a possible
increase in tuition.
The library expansion, planned to begin this
spring, was the subject of some discussion. It was
questioned when the governor advised universities
not to spend the money allocated from a $300
million bond issue, where $700,000 of the money to
finance the expansion was to come from.
It was another year of financial trouble.
This year saw an increase in tuition with
another one coming in the fall.
Proration continued as education took a cut of
$180 million this fiscal year.
Students voted to make student activities fees,
now hopelessly inadequate, a percentage of
tuition.
It was a year for the University senate.
Claude Gossett stepped down and Dennis
Rygiel took his place as chairman of the senate.
The senate rejected proposals to change to the
semester system, to add plusses and minuses to
the grading system, to start the school year earlier
and start Christmas break at Thanksgiving, and
a resolution requiring the attendence of student
athletes.
It accepted a new tenure document which was
sent to the Board of Trustees.
The jury is still out about whether a new core
curriculum will be accepted. J

Chris Roush, Editor
Luz M. Sabillon, Business Manager
Volume 93 Number 27
The Constitution
"We the people of the United
States, in order to form a more perfect
union, establish justice, insure
domestic tranquility, provide for the
common defense, promote the general
welfare, and secure the blessings
of liberty to ourselves and our
posterity, do ordain and establish
this Constitution for the United
States of America."
From May 25 to Sept. 17, 1787, a
group of 55 men from 13 colonies
gathered in Philadelphia, Pa., for a
c o n s t i t u t i o n a l convention. Their
purpose: To revise the Articles of the
Confederation.
The result: The U.S. Constitution.
The Constitution is a document
that has endured 200 years. It is a
document that has had its share of
challenges, questions and debates
during its history, and in 1861 it
almost became the destroyer of the
nation it was written to unify.
Yet, it has survived.
Why?
An unchanged 200-year-old piece
of parchment has become the basis
for a n entire democracy.
Based on the first 10 amendments,
or Bill of Rights, which espouse the
ideals of freedom of speech, religion,
assembly and press, this democracy
has survived.
The Plainsman hopes the University
administration will recognize
the Constitution's bicentennial.
As a matter of fact, we'd accept
any recognition that the document
exists.
Freedom?
The Auburn Eleven, like the Chicago
Eight of 1968, h a s a message.
Pardon the cliche, but this group
seems to have made a mountain out
of a molehill.
Before the civil disobedience camp-out,
before contacting outsiders
like the Civil Liberties Union and
before filing any type of a suit, the
Auburn Eleven should have attempted
to go through every possible
diplomatic channel to change a rule
it felt was unfair and violated the
Constitutional right of free speech.
Wouldn't civil disobedience be
more effective if all bureaucratic
avenues have already been taken?
Certainly, no one likes a lot of red
tape, but isn't the only way to get a
bureaucrat's attention to speak his
language?
Like most bureaucratic language,
the administration's is often based
on narrow- or closed-mindedness.
The P l a i n s m a n agrees there
should be no limit on the freedom of
expression or the freedom ofspeech.
Indeed, there should be no arbitrary
limits on any of our Constitutional
or inalienable rights.
However, rules and laws are
necessary to maintain an ordered
and democratic society, but these
rules and laws should be open to
i n t e r p r e t a t i o n and possible
changes.
Instead of arresting people for
breaking a vaguely worded rule,
shouldn't the University Police concentrate
on disciplining the people
disturbing the peace?
Students, or anyone, should be
able to peacefully sit, stand, talk,
study or contemplate anywhere on
this campus at any time without the
fear of being arrested or harassed.
The key word is peacefully. If
someone is acting in a disorderly
manner so t h a t other people's rights
are being violated, then the police
should act.
The University does not need to
allow itself to use the police a s a tool
to decide what it wants to hear or not
to hear.
Does an institution of higher
learning have the power to allow
itself to become the sole determiner
of what is or isn't free speech or
expression?
Farewell
As with every spring quarter at
The Plainsman, it's a time for parting
with old friends.
Good-bye and good luck to:
Chris Roush, editor, goes on to
graduate school at the University of
Florida to corrupt young minds;
Chris Linvilie, sports editor, wants
to take time off to study; Russ Austin,
photo editor, wants to try to
graduate this summer; Kathleen
Mullins, assistant copy editor, travels
to St. Simon's island for a PR job;
Stephanie Hunt, managing editor,
returns to Rome, Ga., and waits on
that call from The New York Times;
Eric Davis, photo editor (Winter-
Spring '87), transfers to the University
of Florida (we hope he doesn't
get Professor Roush).
Martha Jones, art editor, moves
on in her own abstract world of art;
Tommy Wofford, who did everything,
is doing the job-search dance;
and Allison Bishop, features editor,
begins the job-search routine also
with a dash of marriage.
In the business office, Andrew
Hart, an ad rep, will take Proctor &
Gamble by storm; in the typesetting
office, Laura DeLaVergne is going
to get married and live happily ever
after.
Y'all come back and visit sometime.
Maybe we'll still be here.

Would you hire this sick person?
Chris
ROUSH
Name: Christopher S. Roush
Age: 22
Physical health: excellent
Mental health: poor
Major: muckraking
GPA: 6.32
Wishful Occupation: social critic
Career Objective: to stay in school
forever
That's what they call identification on
a resume; ID for short. Would you
employ this person if you were in the
hiring business? I would have my
serious doubts as to his sanity, but his
writing's not bad. For a journalist.
Many of you, like myself, are preparing
for graduation. You've ordered the
cap and gown. The invitations to people
you haven't seen in 10 years have been
signed, sealed, delivered. You finally
passed the proficiency exam in B & P or
EH 103, and you want, expect, a job
offer. I've been witness to your genre
before.
But before graduation, you had your
resume put together, starting off with
the afore-written identification, and
ending with all your exciting
achievements:
Honors: Best pig chaser, 1982 Alpha
Psi Rodeo; Honorary pimp, I Phelta Thi
fraternity; Wine Steward, Harry's Bar,
1984-85; East Alabama Medical Center
Detoxification Unit, 1986.
You expect these prodigious honors to
land your two feet in the job of your life,
the job that you'll stay with until you
retire. Unlike Eddie Murphy, you are not
the chosen one. It's an uphill battle out
there, and if you expect to start off as a
vice president, then you've been taking
something just a bit stronger than XTC.
Don't expect the job of your dreams
when you graduate. For 98 percent of us,
it's just not there. You are not going to
find it. Nope.
Ask anybody who's been out there. If
you thought they were joking when they
talked about a jungle out there, it's time
to wake up. The April Fool's joke is over.
Time to join the proverbial rat race.
But nobody's offered you your dream
job? You decide to stick it out and not
accept the job offer that just isn't quite
what you were looking for.
I can tell exactly what's going to
happen to most of you. You'll move out of
your parent's house, find an apartment
you can't afford, start using credit cards,
eat out, want to move to Atlanta, Birmingham
or Charlotte and find a job
there, etc. Later that year, we find
momma's little cry baby crawling back
home saying, "Help me." I've got news
for you. They were happy to get rid of
you.
So, what are your choices now? 1.)
Become a klepto and make friends with
the bag people 2.) Become a bartender or
waitress 3.) Start looking for a job suited
to your college major that might not be
exactly what you're looking for.
Lucky enough to have a GPA as high
as 6.32? Then you'll expect your scholarly
achievement to get you any job you
want. Not so. More nightly news: Grades
get your first job maybe. Nobody cares
about what you made in class after you
get out of college. How many of your
college teachers have asked what your
grades were in high school? Life's little
lessons everyone talks about, but they
forgot to inform you of the gory details.
Forget about the cow-tipping parties,
concerts, wild stunts, talks with policemen
about sobriety, having enough
money to buy a six-pack of Black Label
Light. Start thinking about paying the
bills your parents used to pay. Don't
forget the free room and board you once
received.
It's a cruel and fascinating world out
there. People will be nice to you, but the
words "manipulation" and "use" are
better adjectives. Be tough, and for those
who still do everything your parents tell
you and haven't been off the farm into
the big city, grow up fast and get ready
for the culture shock. Or stay at home
and don't bother the world. It's too busy
to mess with you.
Despite the satisfaction of putting out
this newspaper, this has been the most
difficult year of my life. I've lost friendships
gained my first three years
because I've been too busy to keep up'
with them.
But a small circle of friends remained !
faithful, as did someone I hold close in
my heart. They understood my fears,
pains, sufferings. I thank them, for they
allowed me to express my frustrations
and melancholy emptiness without feeling
it. Others weren't so understanding.
So this is my "Auld Lang Syne." Or
what? Part of me is saying "Don't let the
dream end." I guess I'll follow this and
go to graduate school.

More excited than sad to be graduating
Stephanie
HUNT
Most of you (maybe all) will be all too
happy to hear that this is my last
column for The Plainsman. To be perfectly
honest, so am I.
Anyone who thinks that putting your
personal opinions in print (under your
name and your picture) is fun has never
done it. You open yourself up to blasts
from people you don't know and sometimes
worse, people you do know.
So for this last one I decided to solicit
opinions on what I would write. Maybe
then, just this once, I wouldn't upset
anyone or make anyone mad.
Unfortunately, I can't follow their
well-meant suggestions, which most
often included saying good-bye to all my
friends (who have hounded me for nine
months to get their names in the paper).
That is my personal life and I don't
believe anyone other than myself and
my friends care how much I will miss
them (which will be considerably).
Suggestions also included saying
thank you to the people who have helped
me the most this year — namely family
and Plainsman staff. But again that
includes maybe 20 people and the paper
is read by about 20,000 (OK, picked up by
that many).
The primary reason, though, for not
writing a sad "farewell" column is that,
right now, I am more excited than sad to
be graduating. •
I can see all those older, "wiser" heads
shaking sadly and can hear these same
alumni sigh that I just can't realize how
much I'll miss Auburn. Maybe they are
thinking that I might flunk an exam so I
can come back for one more fall quarter,
or go to graduate school for two more
years.
But don't be absurd. Of course I know
what I'll be missing (or more accurately,
who I'll be missing), but everyone has
to strike out on their own someday —
mine just happens to be a couple weeks
away.
The point is, I have enjoyed my four
years of college, but in no way am I
assuming that these are the best years of
my life. I hope to get a real job on a real
newspaper (after the summer — I don't
want to rush this growing up thing) and
have a real career. That may sound
funny, but think about it. Does anyone
take you seriously now?
As student journalists, or any other
student leader or worker, we have to live
with the stigma of being a student, of
being in training, of being overly supervised
and then overlooked. It is common
practice when interviewing an administrator
or faculty member to have them
tell you what to print and how the story
should sound. They assume that they
have the right to do this and get angry
when we refuse to commit to an angle on
the story before all the facts are in.
In the real world, or rather from my
limited experience in it, you are allowed
to do your job and then you pay if you
make a mistake. The freedom to make
mistakes simply means you're heading
toward adulthood — scary but exciting.
I know there are things about the past
four years that I will miss, like when the
bills come in and I could call home for
more money. Or when I'm stuck on a
stpry and had a department full of very
qualified and very different professors
to get me "unstuck." Or that I will never
be as close to the people I work with as I
have been this year.
Or, most of all, that I will not, at least
until she finishes next March, live with
probably the closest and best friend I've
ever had.
OK, so I snuck in a few farewells at the
end, but you have to say goodbye before
you can leave.
Now I am free to move on.

Farewell to a few close friends
Bret
PIPPEN
Friend: one attached to another by
affection or esteem.
Close friend: can drink a brew with;
see also friend.
This is a farewell column devoted to
some close friends of mine who have all
brought something to The Plainsman.
So long and good luck to:
Chris Roush who brought organization
to "the cave." Into this den of iniquity
comes a man without shame, without
morals and tells the staff to
straighten up.
Hendrix on the stereo is outlawed. The
Don Johnson posters are trashed. Even
the news editor's right to cuss like a sailor
was frowned upon. The staff was
witnessing a host of changes — changes
that were ignored after three weeks.
However, the one chosen to lead us
into an age of sovreignty over newspap-erdom,
loosened up and soon the XTC
and nose candy was flowing and "Purple
Haze" could be heard throughout
Foy.
Keeping the paper at its current level
will be an uphill battle, but maybe
Roush will help me on that odd occasion.
More than likely he will go somewhere
and organize something, such as a
march to institute a baseball month.
Stephanie Hunt brought an interesting
private life. Interesting because we
never could figure it out. She could have
been a pimp or madame. It seemed she
was everywhere at once during the weekend
— either getting a ticket in Georgia
or getting her ID checked in Florida.
I first knew Stephanie as the blushing
young girlfriend of a guy who will
forever be known as the "roseman."
While talking to her now, it's hard to
believe she once walked hand-in-hand
and made "goo-goo" eyes at a member of
the male species.
I also learned that Hunt took no crap
from no one. So, if one has to work with
her, he had better not be a crybaby.
I see Stephanie becoming the hard-nosed
editor of a large metro daily or a
waitress with five kids and married to a
Republican.
Allison Bishop brought Dwight
Yoakam. Dwight was not played often
on the stereo system, but he brought that
cowpatty feel to the office.
Allison is also one never to take any
lip. Her stare alone could turn any man
to jello. Being rather opinionated, she
always let me know if she didn't agree
with something.
I hope she keeps on eating frozen
yogurt and trying to solve everyone's
problems. Congratulations on the future
— Hey, I'll be your fiance's worst man,
Allison.
Kathleen Mullins brought "crystal
clear pee." During her days at the office,
Kathleen learned never to enter into a
conversation she knows nothing about
and that everyone's intimate relation-ships
are developed before everyone's
eyes.
A transplanted yankee, she learned
the traditions of Southern life such as
Redman chewing tobacco and excessive
pollen. Thanks go out to her for providing
memorable shots in the April Fool's
edition of the paper.
If she doesn't become a "buff puff"
queen, she will become a willing and
able public relations spokesman.
Russ Austin brought his Sand Mountain
accent. It was nice to find someone
who had a worse southern drawl than
mine. "Money" became "Munnie" and
"get a" became "git uh." At least I could
communicate.
The master of the sexual innuendo,
Russ' innovative insights on various
subjects will be missed, as will his photography.
I'm sure he is a reforming
kleptomaniac despite all the money he
made as photo editor.
Tommy Wofford brought himself.
He introduced me to a very special red-haired
girl, and he will be a "kemo-sabe"
or forever friend.
The wall of The Plainsman will
forever reverberate with the sound of his
laugh and of his voice.
After this, these people will probably
send Luigi the hit-man after me, but it
will be worth it because of the friendships
I've made with these people during
their days at The Plainsman, the best
damn collegiate newspaper in Auburn.

•Letters-
Beliefs are important
Editor, The Plainsman:
This letter is in response to Kevin
Broughton's May 7 column, in which he
commented on President Jimmy Carter's
"condoning...(the) acts of cowardice"
of the "draft dodgers" who went to
Canada during the Vietnam War era.
The draft resisters were young (college
age), they were independent, they were
against the Vietnam War, they were
alone. Their reasons for fleeing to Canada
varied:For some, participating in a
war, even behind the lines as a conscientious
objector, violated their religious or
moral philosophies; for other, as well as
for much of the American public who felt
the United States had no place in that
war, the nature of the Vietnamese "conflict"
separated it from other wars in
which they would have fought. Far from
exhibiting cowardice, these young men
exhibited courage and strong personal
conviction. Rather than participating in
a war in which they did not believe, they
chose the lonely path of civil disobedience.
They believed that blind obedience
to a government never justifies
its actions, and that even laws are subject
to moral and ethical examination.
Carter's 1977 decision to grant unconditional
amnesty to those who fled to
Canada in resistance to the draft followed
the trend of public opinion. He,
like many other Americans, felt that the
decision made 10 years earlier by these
young men did not qualify them as traitors
or unpatriotic citizens. The amnesty
was his attempt to help reconcile a
nation torn apart by a controversial
war. I understand if those men and
women who took part in and suffered
through the war were upset by his decision,
but those who were not in their
situation have little right to condemn
draft resistors.
Because I am a woman, I will never
face the obligation to go to war
(although the fact may change some
day), but if I were, I can't say I would go.
For me, it would be a hard decision to
make; I believe for the draft resistors it
was no easier. I love my country, I would
not be happy elsewhere, but I hope I
would leave it before compromising an
important personal conviction such as
that of war.

Editor, The Plainsman:
An article appeared in the May 21 edition
of The Plainsman entitled "Bird
needs money for facilities." We would
like to thank Carrie Sikes for her assistance
in publicizing the need for funds
for War Eagle VI. However, there are
three points which need to be clarified,
as they seem to have been lost in editing.
First, we want to make it perfectly
clear that Alpha Phi Omega is honored
to be entrusted with the care of War
Eagle VI. We are not complaining that
we are the caretakers of Auburn's mascot.
It is a vital part of our service program,
and we wish to continue serving
the campus in this manner.
Second, we want to clarify the fact
Correction
In last week's Plainsman, an article,
"Tan Scam broken," incorrectly
identified WCGQ as a sponsor of the
Miss AU Tan Contest. The radio
station that promoted the event was
WNKS. The Plainsman regrets the
error. It is the policy of this paper to
correct any errors in fact.
A question of makeup, layout
Thanks, Herb
Editor, The Plainsman:
I am very grateful to Herb Jernigan, a
chemical engineering student, who will
graduate this quarter.
I had car trouble on Sunday, May 24,
midway between Birmingham and
Opelika. Herb was kind enough to stop
and offer his assistance. He spent three
hours trying to help locate a radiator
hose and then followed me into Opelika
to insure that my car would run adequately
with an improvised hose.
I am quite impressed with the caliber
of your students, and I think you should
be proud to have Jernigan represent you
as a graduate of Auburn University.
Tracy Henderson
Gainesville, Fla.
Editor, The Plainsman:
This letter concerns the layout of two
front page articles in the May 14 issue of
The Plainsman. It is our opinion that a
photograph of Lakeita Shuntale Scaife
should have accompanied the article
concerning the missing child.
We, as graphic designers trained in
layout design, understand that space
does not always afford inclusion of a
photograph, but our argument is sustained
by the fact The Plainsman editor
chose to include a photograph of Harold
Melton instead of this missing child.
The article entitled, "Semester, grading
voted down; Melton speaks in favor
of quarter system," positioned above the
missing child article, does not seem to
warrant a picture; whereas, a Plainsman
reader might see the picture of the
missing child, recognize her and aid the
police in their search.
In closing, we would like to add that
we have nothing against Melton, but
feel that if space was the limiting factor
in the exclusion of Lakeita's photograph,
then priority should have been
given to the picture of the missing child
over the picture of the SGA president.

Editor's note: The authors assume
The Plainsman owned an original photograph
of Lakeita Scaife, which it did
not and. because of deadline pressures,
could not obtain. Library is for everyone
Editor, The Plainsman:
As a regular user of the Ralph B.
Draughon Library, my intention is to
take full advantage of the resources and
facilities offered. Until recently, I have
found the library satisfactory in meeting
my needs, but as an undergraduate
student, I have experienced injustice on
the part of the library's policies.
Until last week, undergraduate students
were able to check out special permission
books for one day. Then, by an
overnight decision, without any warning
to its patrons, the library revoked
that right.
The library now only allows graduate
students and teachers the right to check
out special permission books. I have reason
to believe this policy went into effect
as a result of a few irresponsible acts of
the faculty and graduate students.
Is it because some professors and
graduate students neglect their obligation
to return library books on time that
the library staff made this decision? If
so, the library has not solved anything.
Undergraduate students should not be
denied the right of access to resources
more than any other person at the
University.

Our first co-op column is goodbye
Allison
BISHOP
Never seen this face before? We've
never written a column before and for
our first trick we decided to make this
one a cooperative effort. Me and my
shadow Kathleen Mullins, whose face
you've never seen and never will, wrote
this as a good-bye column.
Good-bye.
Kathleen: I can remember four years
ago trying to talk one of my best friends
out of majoring in journalism. I thought
it was the worst possible major a person
could choose. Little did I know four
schools and and four years later I would
be graduating from Auburn with a public
relations/journalism degree. And do
you know what? It has been great. The
reason it has been so great is because of
The Plainsman and the people who
practically live down there.
It didn't really hit me until last Friday
night when we had our Plainsman banquet
and said our good-byes. I'm leaving
Auburn and people who know more
about me than my own mother, or boyfriend
for that matter. I have gained so
much experience, but more importantly
I will graduate knowing I have made
some very (leech) close friends. It took
me three quarters in a row to stay down
at The Plainsman and once I stayed I
seldom left except to sleep and sometimes
go to class. I could write a book
about The Plainsman staff, its parties,
"I never" games and the wild nights at
Rusty's and Tucker's.
If I had to pick one major thing I have
learned form working at The Plainsman
it would be that the word "privacy" has
no meaning. If your private life is not
exciting enough, have no fear — The
Plainsman staff will gladly spice it up
for you — after all, what are friends for?
Just a few parting words:
Bret — Thanks for making me laugh
every day. All I had to do was look at you
and I laughed. I'm sure I'll always be one
of your favorite friends — after all I have
plenty of blackmail material. Follow
me?
Amy — All I can say is go Chi-O and
stay out of the bushes. Grub, grub.
Alan (crude nickname omitted) —
Thanks for being there when I needed
someone to talk to, and for keeping me in
shape while chasing me through parking
lots.
Russ — I'm really going to miss you.
I'll never forget our four-hour talks, and
trying to understand what's-his-name. I
have faith you'll reach your ultimate
goal, and when you do, I'll be even
prouder to say you are my special friend.
Patti — We've had our ups and downs,
and downs, but everything has worked
out for the best. I wish you the best of
luck next year, and better taste in nighttime
movies.
Tracey — Hang in there! You have
brought a special talent to the office, and
I'll be looking for you this fall in the
marching band at halftime.
Tommy — Here's to the memories and
the many rumors you started about me
this year, though none of them were as
good as you thought they were.
Allison — Save me a Saturday in May,
2007.1 don't know where we will be then,
but I'll sure look you up before the magic
date. Thanks for being a great friend
and a special person.
Allison: I'll start at the beginning,
freshman year. For all the sorority girls
who effectively intimidated me my first
year at Auburn, you can kiss mine. I
have something now that many of you
may never have — self-respect because I
am an individual. I don't need Greek letters
tatooed across my chest to make me
feel worthy.
During the past four years I have
dated, lost, and become engaged to the
most wonderful man I've known.
Thanks, Dave, for being there all those
nights when I needed to cry and know
someone was there who cared, even if
you were 300 miles away for nine
months of the year. Thank you too for
loving me because I'm me.
For The Plainsman I've felt a lot of
love and frustration. I also came down
here several times before I decided to
stay. Things happen fast down here.
Within a quarter I became an assistant
news editor and I still didn't know a pica
from a point.
I've made some of the best friends I
will ever have, and there are the persons
with whom I will always have a personality
conflict. I wish you well anyway,
Chris Roush.
Bret, your paper will be one of the best,
I'm sure. Don't let me down. Patti, good
luck this summer. Amy, don't let the
white trash get you down. Tommy, for
some odd reason I feel I'll run into you
again.
To everybody, keep a Saturday in
August 1988 open. I hope you all will
finally see Sheffield and meet my friend

The proposal has not been presented

printing of this letter, and there are few
discrepancies in the dimensions and
figures which were printed.
Third, we would like to make clarifications
on the condition of the aviary. It is
true that the poles and wire both need
replacing. However, much of our
expenses for the refurbishing of the
aviary have been met. We would like to

amount of this money.
