Statewide
Auburn is truly a statewide institu­tion
with enrolled students from
every county, according to Gerald
Leischuck, direc­tor
of planning
a n d a n a l y s i s.
"This is partially
due to the fact
Auburn is a land-grant
university,
and we have offi­ces
in all coun­t
i e s , " Leischuck
said. Jefferson County leads with
1,834 students enrolled, while Lee
County boasted 1,742 students in
the fall. See A- 4.
Workfare
According to Dr. Philip R. Popple,
head of Auburn's social work pro­gram,
an answer to the nation's
welfare woes may
lie in legislation
aimed at replacing
the present system
with a "workfare"
system, which is a
concept where
cash to recipients-is
replaced with"
jobs or training
with hopes that it will lead to
steady employment. "A number of
programs have been tried in the
past," Popple said. See A-3.
NCAA bid
The Auburn baseball team is one of
four SEC teams to receive a bid to
the NCAA Tournament that begins
today. The Tigers
will begin play in
Huntsville by tak­ing
on Seton Hall,
a team with a 44-8
record and the
nation's leading
hitter, Marteese'
Robinson, who is
b a 11 i n g . 5 4 0.
"We're elated to be included in the
field of 48," Coach Hal Baird said.

Missing child's body probably found
By Stephanie Warnecke
Assistant News Editor
A body believed to be Lakeita
Shantale Scaife, the 5 year old miss­ing
from Carolyn Draughon Village
since May 9, was found on Cox Road
in Auburn Tuesday night by an
Auburn resident.
In a press conference Wednesday at
11:30 a.m., University Police Chief
Jack Walton said charges have not
yet been filed, but the police do have a
suspect.
Foul play has been indicated, Wal­ton
said.
Capt. Ed Downing of the Auburn
City Police said they have had a pos­sible
suspect from the beginning.
"Family members are involved so
there is no need for public alarm,"
Walton said.
"No one is wandering around the
streets of Auburn picking up child­ren,"
Downing said.
"At this point we have some physi­cal
evidence," Walton said. Some evi­dence
was found at the scene where
she was found.
The body was sent to the Depart­ment
of Forensic Sciences in Mont­gomery
for an autopsy and positive
identification.
Walton said they expect a "quick
resolution of the case" after the report
from Forensic Sciences comes back.
"It appears she has been dead sev­eral
days, possibly since the disap­pearance,"
Downing said.
Downing and Walton would not
comment on the condition of the body
or any possible clothing the girl had
on.
The mother, father and stepmother
of the child are University students,
Walton said.
The child was visiting her father
and stepmother for the weekend girl.
when she disappeared from the
bathtub.
The Auburn University Police have
been in charge of the investigation,
and the Auburn City Police and Ala­bama
Bureau of Investigation have
been assisting.
At least eight full-time investiga­tors
have worked on the case daily,
Walton said.

Budget reduction

SALUTE — President James Martin watches the military procession
that took place last Thursday for President's Day. All military stu­dents
participated. For more photos of this event, see A-9.
The budget, as proposed by the
House Ways and Means Committee,
would seriously affect the state's
largest University, according to Pres­ident
James Martin.
Alabama's 1987-88 education
appropriations bill was adopted by
the committee on May 13, reflecting a
net reduction in Auburn's proposed
budget from Gov. Guy Hunt's earlier
recommendation.
The appropriations bill, subject to
approval by the full House before
being sent to the Senate and ulti­mately
to the governor, calls for level
funding for the University, Auburn
University at Montgomery, the Agri­cultural
Experiment Station and the
Alabama Cooperative Extension
Service.
Under the Ways and Means
proposal:
—The main campus general pro­grams
are budgeted $65.37 million,
the same as this year's appropriation
before 5 percent proration and
$595,827 less than the governor's
recommendation.
—The Ag Experiment Station is
budgeted $12.88 million, the same as
this year's original appropriation
and the same as the governor's
recommendation.
—Extension is budgeted $15.28 mil­lion,
the same as this year's original
appropriation and $207,000 more
t h a n the governor's recommen­dation.
—Combined, Auburn, the Experi­ment
Station and the Extension Ser­vice
would receive $93.54 million, the
same as this year's appropriation
before proration.
—AUM is budgeted $10.79 million,
the same as this year's original
appropriation but $310,075 less than
the governor's recommendation.
"A major research university like
Auburn has a responsibility to assist
business and industry in the state to
adapt to changing conditions and to
perfect technologies that will encour­age
the development of new indus­tries,
and it takes money to do these
things," Martin said.
"One of the most distressing things
I see as a university president is a
bright, energetic student who comes
to Auburn, gets a degree and then
leaves the state for greener economic
pastures," he said.
Martin said Auburn will continue
to emphasize that universities in the
state should be allocated state funds
based on factors of productivity
including enrollment, types of pro­grams
offered, student credit hours
taught and number of degrees given.

The legal restraint was sought after
the 11 students, accused of violating
free speech regulations, filed a civil
action suit against University
administrators last week.
The students claim they were
deprived of Constitutional freedom to

that University regulations, which
limit the amount of time allowable for
free speech expression, be revised or
discarded.

Bird needs money for facilities
By Carrie Sikes
Staff Writer
With plans to correct the inade­quate
treatment facilities and deteri­orating
cage of Auburn's mascot, War
Eagle VI, Alpha Phi Omega falls
short of University funding.
Alpha Phi Omega, responsible for
the eagle, has planned to construct a
"War Eagle Hospital" and to recon­struct
the eagle's cage.
The 484-square-foot "hospital" has
been approved by the University and
will cost an estimated $40,000, Craig
Connally, treasurer of Alpha Phi
Omega, said. He said the eagle's cage
renovation will cost an estimated
$9,000.
Barry R. Winn, trainer of War
Eagle VI, said, "Some alumni have
helped support us, and we've received
private donations, but the rest we
have to raise."
Connally said, "President Martin
said he will help with our fundraising
project. He likes and cares enough
about the bird to help out."
He said, "Most everybody doesn't
realize that the University does not
pay for upkeep of the bird. The Uni­versity
thinks the athletic depart­ment
should pay for it. The athletic
department thinks SGA should pay
for it. SGA thinks the athletic
department should pay. We're stuck
in the middle.
"The fraternity has about $2,300.
The standard operating cost is $2,000
a year for such things as food, uni­forms
and gloves. The cost of aviary
upkeep is about $250 for lawnmowers,
ga3 and patches in the screen. Travel
expenses cost us $500 a year, not
including football games. These tra­veling
expenses are totally unrelated
to the University. In order to keep the
eagle, we are mandated under the
federal government to show the bird
— not just at football games.
"We get $500 per year from SGA for
bird upkeep and the aviary. We get
about an average of $200 a year from
donations and profits from seat
cushions and pictures. So, $800 per
year is left to us to raise. We usually
get donations that manage to cover
it." The fraternity is selling seat
cushions to help raise money for the
project.
Connally said, "We have submitted
a budget of about $1,400 to the
Athletic Board for our trainers for
out-of-state football games. This
includes travel expenses and meals
for three trainers. It is what cheer­leaders
ask for per person. We submit­ted
a budget to the last athletic direc­tor
and were turned down.
"We basically pull money when it
comes to things," he said. "Our prob­lem
is when we have a major recon­struction.
The aviary was built in
1974, and it needs work. The Univer­sity
is paying for four concrete poles if

not sure that they will win their civil
action case.
"His only disagreement was on
whether the Coliseum (offered by the
University for the students' protest)
was a viable alternative to the Open
Air Forum," said Jim Howland; an
Auburn alumnus and spokesman for
the "Auburn Eleven."
"We (the students) did not want to
use the area in front of the Coliseum,
because the University had already
designated the Open Air Forum for
free speech and the Coliseum area is
50 yards from the street — there
would not have been enough students
passing by the Coliseum to make our
protest effective."
Hobbs considered testimony from
Police Chief Jack Walton, who told
the court Friday that there is more
foot traffic near the Coliseum than
near the Open Air Forum during
evenings.
"Walton also claimed that the Coli­seum
area was better because access
to bathrooms are better there than
near the Open Air Forum, where
Haley Center and Parker Hall's doors
are locked," Howland said.
Later, Walton said that his claim
about more foot traffic near the Coli­seum
was based on opinion, not
research.
During "Auburn Eleven" lawyer
Peter Martin's cross-examination of
Walton, the police official was asked
whether students would need permis­sion
to camp or socialize during Open
Air Forum areas. Walton testified
that the University regulations apply
to outward political or religious
expressions.
Also testifying Friday in Montgo­mery
were Mark Long and Michele
Malach, political science and speech
communications graduate students
from the "Auburn Eleven."
In response to Martin's inquiry
about conversations with Pat Barnes,
vice president for student affairs, and
Grant Davis, assistant dean of stu­dent
affairs, Long said, "They

VisionQuest gives problem teens hope
By Laura C. Barnwell
Staff Writer
Well, the Pit Man wised up and
did his best. He made it through
the program herein VisionQuest.
No more like the cocky kid he
used to be. He's a useful member
of society, the Pit Man!
The Pit Man described in the
above wagon train song is typical
of the youths in the VisionQuest
program, which recruited on
campus in the first week of May.
The youths in the program are
"kids who taunt their parents,
their community and their
school, who find themselves
chased by the police and con­trolled
by the courts," according
to Bob Burton, the program's
founder.
The information in this article
was provided by VisionQuest
recruiting brochures.
Youths, age 13 to 18, are
assigned to the program by
judges for a minimum of one
year. Of the 700 youths in the
program, 85 percent are boys.
Usually, the youth's first
placement is on the program's
wagon train.
Upon arrival, the youths are
taught skills necessary for
wagon train safety. The skills
included are: kickproofing, feed­ing,
harnessing, riding, water­ing,
grooming, saddling, equip­ment
care, driving and braking
wagons and first aid.
The wagon train life is struc­tured
to provide guidelines for the
youth.
Days begin at 6 a.m. with the
watering and feeding of the
animals. The wagon train then
begins traveling.

The youths attend class in
specially designed classroom
wagons. The educational pro­gram
is designed with success
built in for the students. The pro­gram's
focus is on the youth's
academic readiness. Field trips
are planned to the historical sites
the wagon train passes.
The VisionQuest educational
program is approved by state
agencies.
The youths spend the rest of the
day performing their assigned
chores. The chores are based on
the youth's position. Wagon train
positions include: scout, rides
opposite the train and controls
traffic; teamster, trains and
drives the animals; trooper, par­ticipates
in precision riding and
carries the wagon train's flag in
parades; outrider, prevents run­away
teams; farrier, shoes horses
and mustangs, tames wild
horses.
After traveling 15 to 15 miles
each day, the youths are ready for
an 8 p.m. bedtime.
Every fifth day the wagon
train does not travel; these days
are spent repairing equipment,
treating animal ailments and
doing laundry.
The youths are supervised by
counselors. The majority of the
650 VisionQuest counselors are
in their 20s.
The wagon train youth and
staff are divided into groups,
called tipi families. Each group
has eight to 12 youths and four to
six counselors.
The tipi families allow the
youths to discuss issues which
caused problems in their natural
families.
Animals are another impor­tant
aspect of the VisionQuest
program. The youths are respon­sible
for the animals, which only
respond to gentleness.
Each youth has the opportun­ity
to earn an animal for his own
use for the duration of the trip.
First the youth must list what he
plans to do to earn the animal.
This list must include a plan for
taking care of the animal. When
the youth completes his list, the
staff assigns him an animal.
The animal can be taken away
if the youth does not carry
through with his care plan or
exhibits a behavior problem.
When an animal is taken away,
the youth becomes a walker.
Walkers must walk in front of the
wagon train. After walking a set
number of miles, the youth re-earns
his animal.
Youths remain on the wagon
train for 2,000 miles, around
three or four months.
The youths are then assigned
to another VisionQuest program.
The other programs are wilder­ness
camps, an ocean-going sail­ing
vessel, cross-country bicycle
trips and group homes.
VisionQuest is a private organ­ization
which started in 1973.
Burton began the program to
work with troubled youth with
"whom all traditional ap­proaches
have failed."

Popple: Welfare created its own problems
By David Sharp
Staff Writer
An answer to the nation's wel­fare
woes may lie in legislation
aimed at replacing our present
welfare system with a "workfare"
system, according to Dr. Philip R.
Popple, the head of Auburn's
social work program.
"Workfare" refers to a general
concept in which cash for welfare
recipients is replaced with jobs or
training with hopes that it will
lead to steady employment in the
work force, Popple said.
"The idea of workfare is not all
that new," Popple said. "A
number of programs have been
tried in the past." These include
programs already underway in
California and Massachusetts,
he said.
"Workfare is popular right now
because it appeals to liberals and
conservatives alike," he said.
Conservatives feel workfare
"will get them (the welfare recip­ients)
off their butts and back to
work," Popple said. And conser­vatives
think the recipients will
get added benefits from the pro­gram,
he said.
However, "It's not as simple as
saying you've got to work to
receive welfare," the Texan
native said.
People must realize that the
problem is not welfare, he said.
Welfare is a solution; the problem
is poverty, unemployment, and
deteriorating inner cities, he said.
"But welfare is a solution that
hasn't worked," Popple said. "It
has in effect created some new
problems of its own."
The main problem is that many
welfare dependents become alien­ated
from the job market, Pop­ple
said, and never go to work.
In some cases, the recipient
may be better off financially to
stay on welfare than to accept a
low-paying job in the private sec­tor,
he said.
The present Aid to Families
With Dependent Children
(AFDC) program is basically
limited to fatherless families or
families with fathers- who t are
unable to work, he said.
If a parent accepted a job, the
family would lose government
benefits including Medicaid, and
the costs of daycare and trans­portation
would quickly cause a
small paycheck to dwindle
further, he said.
A single parent working full
time at minimum wage would
earn only about $7,000 per year,
and the U.S. poverty level is
$11,000 per year, Popple said.
According to an article in the
May 11 Fortune magazine, some
single mothers may have trouble
finding a $13,000-a-year job to
equal the combined benefits from
welfare.
"The United
States has his­tory
of setting
up programs
which offer
hope, but don't
supply."
—Philip Popple
However, "This is not an accu­rate
number," Popple said. The
average AFDC grant in Alabama
is about $65 a month for a single
mother with three children.
The family also would be eligi­ble
for food stamps which equal
about $200 a month and govern­ment
housing which averages
about $175 to $200 a month, he
said.
Popple said Fortune's estimate
is true only in extreme cases
when large Medicaid sums are
paid because of health-related
expenses.
A major obstacle of workfare
would be initial costliness. Pop­ple
said it would be difficult to
predict the costs of implementing
a nation-wide workfare system.
"But it wouldn't be cheap," he
said.

program would save money by
keeping workers off welfare and
Going smokeless
Nicotine
without
danger?
By Heidi Pearson
Staff Writer
It started during a high school
baseball game-just a pinch of
chewing tobacco between his
cheek and gum.
Now he dips up to 10 times a
day.
Preston Bolt, a junior at Flor­ida
State University, starts his
day with a dip of tobacco in the
shower and has another dip after
breakfast. In the afternoon he
puts one in to help him study, and
in the evening he relaxes by the
television with a dip in his
mouth.
An increasing number of
Americans are using smokeless
tobacco products, according to
Newsweek. Of the estimated 10
million people who used one of
these products last year, 3 million
were under the age of 21. This is
an increase of more than 30 per­cent
since 1974, largely due to the
surge in sales of moist snuff to
teenage boys and young men.
Chewing tobacco is a mixture
of tobacco and molasses. Tobacco
is "chewed" by sucking on a golf-ball
size wad between the cheek
and teeth.
Snuff on the other hand, is
powdered or crushed tobacco. It is
"dipped" by placing a pinch
between the lower lip and gum
where it is absorbed through the
gums.
Most people begin using
smokeless tobacco during high
school athletics, Dr. Pat Ellis,
nursing director of Drake Stu­dent
Health Center, said.
"It's one of those jock things to
do," said Pee Wee Smith, 04 AM.
Without a doubt, Ellis said,
chewing and dipping has become
the "cool thing" to do for high
school athletes. Dipping used to
be something only old country
grannies did,,Ellis said, but now
• integrating them into the job
market, he said.
Social Security expenditures
for fiscal 1987 are expected to
total $212.2 billion, according to
Office of Management and
Budget reports. This is an
increase of about 250 percent dur­ing
the past 10 years.
Another obstacle facing work-fare
programs is the federal
government's search for a fast,
simple solution to the welfare
problems. Unfortunately, there is
no "quick, easy fix," Popple said.
"The United States has a his­tory
of setting up programs
which offer hope, but don't
supply," Popple said. "This
leaves the recipients more des­pondent
than before."
Much of the despondency
comes from the dismal future
faced by residents of the the inner
city, he said.
William J. Wilson, a black soci­ologist
from the University of
Chicago, has been studying the
inner-city problems and has dis­covered
the problems "are not
necessarily that the people have
gotten worse," Popple said.
Wilson claims that many of the
blacks' problems began when
upper and middle class blacks
began moving away from the
inner city to the surburbs follow­ing
desegregation in the 1960s,
Popple said.
The black community had sev­eral
socio-economic levels 20 to 30
years ago, Popple said. But now
only the lower class who cannot
get out are left in the ghetto.
"This has created an environ­ment
where there are no role
models," Popple said. The junky,
pimp and petty thief are now the
only example that ghetto child­ren
have to follow, he said.
Another problem of the ghetto
is that young teenagers some­times
have babies so they can
begin receiving benefits and
move out of the house, Popple
said.
This could be solved by making
young mothers wait until they
reach adulthood before they can
assume' benefits in their own
name, he said.
If conditions at home are so
it's almost the "elite" who chew
and dip.
Users appear to see smokeless
tobacco as nicotine without risk.
However, doctors disagree.
"This is not a safe alternative
to cigareete smoking," Dr. Brian
MacMahon, professor of epidem­iology
at Harvard School of Pub­lic
Health, told Newsweek.
The dangers are different when
comparing cigarettes to smoke­less
tobacco, Ellis said. In smok­ing,
one risks cancer of the lungs,
whereas in dipping one risks oral
cancer, Ellis said. Either form of
cancer can be fatal.
"There is a general belief that
young tissues are more suscepti­ble
to cancer than older ones,"
MacMahon said.
Leathery white patches, called
leukoplakia, are often found
inside the mouth as a result of
direct contact with, and con­tinued
irritation by, tobacco
juice. Approximately 5 percent of
diagnosed cases develop into oral
cancer.
The nicotine in smokeless
tobacco affects the body just like
cigarettes affect the body. The
nicotine enters the blood through
the gums. Then the heart starts
beating faster, and the blood ves­sels
become smaller.
It's habit-forming. The nico­tine
in tobacco, according to the
American Cancer Society, lifts a
person up at first...then lets a per­son
down. That high-low effect
on a person's system sets a per­son
up for continued need.
There are three ways one
becomes addicted to nicotine,
Ellis said. First is chemical
addiction because the nicotine is
so rapidly absorbed into the
bloodstream. Second is habit,
and third is psychological depen­dency.
Bolt is aware of the risks of his
habit. He says his parents send
him articles about dipping, and
his girlfriend asks him to quit.
"I'm worried about dying," he
said. "I've tried about 50 times to
quit. I've thrown away cans in
the trash," Bolt said. "I've
flushed tobacco down the toilet. It
lasts a couple of days, and then I
give in."
Sitting in his apartment study­ing,
Bolt said the idea to have a
dip enters his head, and he can't
concentrate on studying until he
bad that the teenage mother has
to get out of the home, then they
could live with foster parents, he
said.
Popple said there is a common
belief that welfare mothers will
have more babies to increase
their benefits. This is unfounded,
Popple said. In most states, hav­ing
another baby would increase
AFDC payments only $12 to $15,
he said.
Popple also said the stereotype
that welfare recipients are lazy
and unwilling to work is also
untrue.
The professor cited a 1984 Uni­versity
of Alabama survey which
showed welfare recipients would
overwhelmingly be in favor of
working, even below minimum
wage.
If the people are willing to work
and there are things to be done,
why not give welfare dependents
the jobs, he said.
But to be effective, workfare
must provide jobs which pay
more than welfare, but less than
the private sector. This would
provide incentive for the recip­ient
to move to the private sector,
he said.
However, if any welfare reform
is to be successful, law makers
must address the problems and
try to retain the bond between
work and income, Popple said;
Workfare replaces aid with jobs
By David Sharp
Staff Writer
A slew of welfare reform bills
introduced recently in Congress
could bring sweeping changes to
the nation's welfare system if
passed.
In all, more than 12 welfare
reform bills have been introduced
on Capitol Hill during the 100th
Congress, according to Library of
Congress reports.
The bills' supporters seek to
avoid long term dependency on
welfare in many cases by replac­ing
the nation's present welfare
system with a "workfare" pro­gram,
said Jeanne Smith of the
Library of Congress.
"Workfare" is a general term
given to programs which would
replace cash payments for wel­fare
recipients with jobs or train­ing,
according to the head of the
University's social work pro­gram,
Philip R. Popple said.
Two workfare bills introduced
by Rep. Harold Ford, D-Tenn.,
and Sen. Robert Dole, R-Kan.,
show promise because of support
they have generated, Smith said.
The Family Welfare Reform
Act of 1987, which is supported
by Democrats, was introduced
into the House of Representatives
by Ford on March 19, she said.
Dole presented the Trade,
Employment and Productivity
Act of 1987, which is backed by
Republicans, to the Senate on
Feb. 19 at the request of the Rea­gan
administration, she said.
The Ford bill provides specific
guidelines for replacing the pres­ent
Aid for Families with
Dependent Children (AFDC)
program with employment, child
support and training, Smith said.
Major provisions for the Ford
bill include removing disincen­tives
to work for welfare depend­ents,
she said.
States would be required to
provide training for welfare
dependents and would also con­tinue
Medicaid for a year after
loss of cash aid, she said.
Continuing Medicaid for a year
after losing cash benefits would
help past welfare-dependent fam­ilies
because health insurance is
often inadequate in low-paying
jobs, she said.
Welfare recipients would not be
required to take a job if their net
income would suffer, sh; said,
and the bill would also jrovide
for a study to coordinate he pro­gram
with the food stamps
program.
The Dole bill is aimed at
increasing the number of partici­pants
in a proposed Greater
Opportunity Through Work
(GROW) program from 20 per­cent
in 1988 to 60 percent in 1992,
Smith said.
Like the Ford bill, the Dole bill
would encourage able-bodied
welfare dependents to work, she
said. The exception would be
women with children younger
than six months.
The bill would give services
such as child support, transpor­tation
and other necessary sup­port
to help get past dependents
back on their feet, she said.
An alternative plan also has
been introduced into the Senate
on Feb. 22 by Dole at the Reagan
Administration's request, she
said.
The Low Income Opportunity
Improvement Act of 1987 autho­rizes
states to conduct their own
anti-poverty experiments and
design their own benefit rules,
Smith said.
The bill would give states most
of the power to create their own
workfare programs, she said.
Lee County Director of the
Department of Human Resources
James A. Slaughter said Gov.
Guy Hunt has appointed a ta.sk
force to study a workfare pro
gram for Alabama in case the
alternative Dole bill passes.
Under the Dole bill, the state
could create their own guideline^
which would allow Alabama wel­fare
recipients "to get a leg into
the job market without getting
the rug pulled out from under
neath them," Slaughter said.
However, Smith said she is
unsure when the bills will come to
the floor of Congress because of
the Iran-Contra hearings. The
bills are now in committees, she
said.

gives in. He describes it as feeling
"possessed."
This feeling is different than
the one he got when he first
dipped. In the beginning, the dip
gave him a buzz and made him
feel light-headed, he said.
Stopping the habit is tough,
Ellis said. A person may suffer
from a lack of concentration, tin­gling
in the extremities and
irritability.
Once a person has made it
through the first two weeks he
has beat the chemical addiction,
Ellis said.
In order to overcome the habit­ual
and psychological dependen­cies,
Ellis recommends develop­ing
a better self-image and
avoiding activities the person
associates with dipping.
Collision injures 3,
claims life of student
A two-vehicle head-on collision
two miles north of Cottondale,
Fla., on U.S. Highway 231
claimed the life of one Auburn
student and injured another.
Michelle Ruth Norris, 20, 03
CSMM, P.O. Box 328 Frisco City,
was declared dead at the scene of
the accident Sunday. Her Auburn
address was 516 E. Glenn.
The driver, Tammy J. Trout,
20,03 GJM, 601 Sandalwood Cir­cle,
Albany, Ga., was transported
by ambulance to Jackson County
Hospital in Mariana, Fla., where
she was listed in stable condition.
Her Auburn address was also 516
E.Glenn.
The people of the other vehicle,
Delton T. Gardner, 16, and Ken>
drick Gardner, 15, both of Cot­tondale,
were taken to Jackson
County Hospital, where they
were treated and released.
According to a spokesman for
the Florida State Highway
Patrol, Trout attempted to pass
another vehicle, but pulled back
into her lane. Then she lost con­trol
and went off onto the
shoulder of the road where the
collision occurred.

Although some people say he is
"internationally known," Dr.
Ward S. Allen said he finds few
people who recognize him.and he
laughs at the "stretched" use of
the words when someone speaks
of him.
Allen, a Hargis professor in the
English department, will retire in
'-June:'' ••*' &S '•"' • <•••-••—•••- •
He says his interest in English
was sparked when he sat at his
mother's knee listening to her
read and listening to his father's
Latin.
Allen is the author of two books
and is in the process of writing a
third about the King James ver­sion
of the Bible. These books
deal with the usage of words and
phrases in this version and why
translators made the changes
they did.
Allen explained that the origi­nal
version for King James was
written by scholars who were
appointed by the king in five
companies.
Each person in the company
took a chapter of the Bishop's
Bible and translated it at home,
then they met and compared
notes. At the end of the day, they
would read their versions of the
Bishop's Bible and compare it
with translations in many other
languages. This was their way of
carefully evaluating what other
languages had done.
Once a book was finished, for
example, Matthew or Mark, they
would gather together with the
other companies and edit this
revision, and if there were any
questions or objections, they
would write them down on
another piece of paper. After the
book had passed through all five
companies, if the original com-pany
agreed with the revisions,
they were made. If they were not,
the objections were sent to a final
committee called the General
Assembly who adjudicated all
the disagreements.
Allen wanted explanation of
the process of the original trans­lation
to explain the importance
of his writing the three books,
because it is so important to him.
He said; "No one has written
about this before."
^..Allen said no one has influ­enced
his life as much as his wife,
Peggy. "How can anyone influ­ence
your life more than your
wife?"
Allen keeps in touch with past
students. He said, "It is very
hard, but it's great to get news
from them. So many are brave. I
am astonished at their courage,
character and accomplishments.
They lead charming lives. They
bring their children for me to see
and I enjoy seeing them. Stu­dents
keep up with you more than
you keep up with them.
"When Dr. Jerry Brown (a
journalism professor at Auburn)
was editor of The Plainsman, I
got to know him. When he
became an editor of another
newspaper, he sent me his
column and I enjoyed reading it."
He said, "I will miss associat­ing
with the young and the old.
You can tease with the young and
they tease you right back.
"One of the most interesting
things that ever happened while I
was teaching Latin was when a
girl walked into the classroom
and said, 'you didn't ask us to
translate!' and she fainted.
"I advise everyone to see the
sunrise and sunset; it means a lot
to me. I would advise the young
people to buy a home where they
could see it."

P a r r o t t e of continuing education moderated panel discussions
By Laura C. Barnwell
Staff Writer
Auburn residents had a chance
to learn the do's and dont's of
small claims courts at the "Inex­pensive
Justice: Successful Use
of the Small Claims Court" tele­conference
Tuesday.
The teleconference was de­signed
by the National United
Teleconference Network (NUTN),
of which Auburn has been a
member since 1982.
The teleconference was spon­sored
locally by the University's
Continuing Education Center.
It is designed around a two to
three-hour speech via satellite by
Dr. Robert Spurrier Jr., a profes­sor
of political science at Okla­homa
State University.
Spurrier is considered an
expert in small claims, according
to Don Parrotte, coordinator of
NUTN for Auburn. Spurrier
wrote Inexpensive Justice: Self
Representation in Small Claims
Court and has conducted more
than 75 workshops on the
subject.
Another two to three hours
focused on Alabama and Lee
County courts. These local work­shops
were led by Michael A. Nix,
District Court judge; Annette
Hardy, Lee County District Court
clerk; Hazel Rushing and Gloria
Corley, East Alabama Medical
Center legal accounts repre­sentatives.
Parrotte said, "People go to
small claims court as an inex­pensive
way to approach debts."
Lawyers are not needed in small
claims court and are not permit­ted
in many states.
The teleconference is aimed at
businessmen, including medical
practioners, who would like to
collect past due accounts, Par­rotte
said.
Participants are told: how to
file a claim, what small claims'
limits are, how judgments are
decided and how to collect a
judgment. They are given sample
forms, which they fill out step-by-step
with the experts.
An actual court case is also
explained thoroughly.
The objective is for partici­pants
to "have a much better idea
of what the small claims court
system can and can't do, and
exactly how to go about" a claim,
Parrotte said.
"Once a person attends the
small claims seminar, he doesn't
need to come again," Parrotte
said.
Parrotte said, "the teleconfer­ence
is held once a year, some­times
at multiple sites." Since
1982, it has been presented four
times at the University.

University committee announces 10 best faculty books
Eight current and two emeritus
University faculty members were
honored last week for books pub­lished
during the 1986-87 aca­demic
year. Their works were
judged by a University commit­tee
as the best books by Auburn
JTaculty during the year.
The 10 were recognized at a
J ceremony and reception spon­sored
by the office of vice presi­dent
for academic affairs, the
graduate school and University
libraries.
The honorees are:
—Larry L. Barker, alumni pro­fessor,
speech communication,
for Interpersonal Communica­tion.
Department Head Don
Richardson noted that the book is
the 19th written by Barker, who
has published two other books
this year. Barker holds a doctor­ate
from Ohio University and has
been an Auburn faculty member
since 1976.
—Kyle G. Braund, professor,
Scott-Ritchey Research Program,
for Clinical Syndromes in Veter­inary
Neurology. Braund
explained that his book examines
the clinical signs of neurological
diseases to assist veterinarians
in performing operations.
Braund, who heads the neurol­ogy
lab at the Scott-Ritchey Cen­ter,
holds veterinary degrees
from the universities of Sydney
and London and has been on
campus since 1974.
—Elroy A. Curl, professor,
plant pathology, and Bryan
Truelove, professor and acting
head of botany and microbiology,
for The Rhizosphere. Their book
examines the microscopic soil
layer around the roots of plants.
Curl noted that the layer is vital
to the survival and growth of
plants and is important in
attempts for bilogical control of
pests. Truelove noted that 80
years of research from scientists
in the firld are drawn upon for the
book. Curl holds a doctorate from
the University of Illinois and has
been a member of the Auburn
faculty since 1954. Truelove
joined the Auburn faculty in 1967
and holds a doctorate from the
University of Sheffield, England.
—Fred R. David, associate pro­fessor,
management, for Funda­mentals
of Strategic Manage­ment.
David, who is working on
the second edition, said the book,
unlike many in the field, empha­sizes
strategies for managers of
small businesses. He joined the
faculty in 1986 and holds a doctor­ate
from the University of South
Carolina.
—James M. Dawsey, assistant
professor, religion, for The Lukan
Voice: Confusion and Irony in
the Gospel of Luke. Dawsey
explained that his book examines
the differences in the way that
people in the Gospel of Luke
express themselves. He joined the
faculty in 1978 and holds a doctor­ate
from Emory University.
—Robert B. Ekelund Jr.,
Lowder professor, economics, for
his book Economics. Department
Head Robert Hebert noted that
the textbook has been adopted for
economics classes at Yale,
Princeton and other universities,
and it is one of several books Eke­lund
has written. Ekelund holds
a doctorate from Louisiana State
University and has been on cam­pus
since 1977.
—Robin F.A. Fabel, associate
professor, history, for Bombast
and Broadsides: The Lives of
George Johnstone. Fabel said
that his book is the first bio­graphy
of the flamboyant 18th
century British naval leader,
member of Parliament and gov­ernor
of West Florida. The book
also examines the failing of the
patronage system in British
government. Fabel joined the
faculty in 1969 and holds his doc­torate
from Auburn, with other
degrees from Oxford.
—The late Benjamin F. Hoer-lein,
emeritus professor, small
animal surgery and medicine
and the Scott-Ritchey Center, for
Veterinary Neurology. Hoerlein,
who died in February, was
honored posthumously. He
retired in 1984 as head of the
Scott-Ritchey Center.
—Malcolm C. McMillan, emeri­tus
Hollifield professor, history,
for The Disintegration of a Con­federate
State: Three Governors
and Alabama's Wartime Home
Front, 1861-1865.

Wall Street given bad rap for insider trading scandals
By Laura C. Barnwell
Staff Writer
Wall Street's insider trading is
actually an example of good bus­iness
sense, according to Dr.
Tibor Machan.
If there is no prior agreement
not to use it. then it is "self-defeating
and irresponsible not
to use the insider information"
available, said Machan, a philo­sophy
professor.
According to Machan, an
example of insider trading is your
friend tells you about his sister,
and you date her. "Is this
immoral, because you used
insider information?" To be "eth­ically
wrong there must be an
implicit agreement not to use the
information."
"I do not think of Securities and
Exchange Commision regula­tions
as defining moral princi­ples,"
Machan said. "In some
societies what is prohibited here
(by the SEC) has proven benefi­cial."
The Wall Street trading scan­dals
have received so much atten­tion
because of the amount of
money involved, Machan said.
Because the SEC handles the
the insider trading cases, it has
"taken over the function of courts
in a free society," Machan said.
"The entire matter should be
handled by the courts."
Machan said, stock trading
should be free rather than regu­lated.
"The arena of the courts,
with due process, is more likely to
assure justice than a regulatory
agency."
The "regulators are not godlike
creatures...their methods of
reaching justice are more risky
than the methods of the law,"
Machan said.
Apartment hunting woes increase during spring
By Stephanie Thompson
Staff Writer
I want two bedrooms, two
bathrooms, a washer, a dryer and
a kitchen with a dishwasher. It
should have low rent, and it
needs to be close to campus with
space to park my car. Sound
familiar?
Many students are looking for
these features as they hit the
pavement in their search for the
best apartments at the best
prices.
According to Auburn real es­tate
agents, the busiest time of
the year for apartment hunting
falls between April and Sep­tember.
Summer quarter stu­dents
are looking to sign sub­leases,
soon-to-be freshmen are
"I spent as much money in one
quarter in the dorm as two quar­ters
in an apartment."
— Shawn Rhoads
looking for their new "home
away from home," and many
others are just looking for some
place different from where they
already live.
Apartment hunting is not an
easy task. Angela Gagliano, 02
PR'S, said that it was hard to go
looking because by the time she
was done with classes and work,
she and her roommate had
approximately 30 minutes to look
before the realty offices closed.
At times, other people — like
parents and roommates — pres­ent
conflicts in decision making,
making.
Ron Murphy at Cary-Pick
Realty noted that many times
families will leave the office for a
"family conference" and return
later with their rental decisions.
Northcutt Realty cited a case
where a mother, as a graduate
student, is going to rent an
apartment during the summer,
and her daughter is going to rent
it in the fall. Northcutt has also
had students rent apartments
whose fathers had rented when
they were at Auburn.
Filling out applications, being
put on waiting lists and leaving
deposits are all aspects of apart­ment
hunting. Kelli Denison, 03
NUR, said that "deposits are the
worst part about moving."
Waiting lists appear to cause
grief for both the realtor and the
student. Jean Whitlow, an
employee at Elevations, said that
just last week she had to deal
with a student, on the eighth
page of a 12 page waiting list,
Fat or calories - moderation answer to debate
By Kimberly Bradley
Staff Writer
Since the 1900s, there has been
the question — is it fat intake or
caloric intake that affects the
incidence of .cancer? The real
answer is moderation, said Dr.
David Kritchevsky, associate
director of Wistar Institute of
Anatomy and Biology in
Philadelphia.
The speech on "Cancer and
Calories" was the title of the
Mildred Brown Davis lecture
sponsored by the nutrition and
health department last Tuesday
in Broun Hall.
The results of some experi­ments
that the internationally
known researcher did on labora­tory
rats with tumors "clearly
showed that as food intake goes
up, the tumor weight goes up."
In other experiments, rats
without tumors on a low calorie
diet also lived longer. The rats
that were fed 5.6 grams of food a
day lived 1,400 days,and the rats
that were fed 1,500 grams of food
a day didn't even live to be 1,000
days old.
Earlier research was ignored
by scientists, although the
results were the same. Krit­chevsky
said that the tests were
called "nutritionally unsophisti­cated,"
which is a term the scient­ists
used because they didn't
believe the results.
One factor that can be believed
today, Kritchevsky said, is that
"we all should have a caloric
budget and learn to spend it
wisely."

who was crying and yelling
about not having an apartment
for next year.
Although the hunting presents
problems, most seem to agree
that apartment life is better than
dorm life. Kenneth Johnson, 01
GPG, said, "I spent as much
money in one quarter in the dorm
as I did in two quarters in the
apartment." Shawn Rhoads, 02
CPE, said after moving from
Magnolia Dorm to Lakewood
Commons to Dorm 1 to Eagles
West, said apartments were bet­ter
than the dorms because the
apartments were quieter and
allowed him to cook meals and
park his car nearby. Brennen
Adkins, 01 PN, said, "Anything
i s better than Mag."
"Political remedies of market
mishaps go further astray than
the mishaps they intended to cor­rect."
Machan said.
Insider trading will continue,
Machan said. Some will be
caught, but some will not be.
While fear motivates people not
to do it, the hope of advantage
encourages insider trading,
Machan said.
"It is a game between the regu­lators
and the professionals" as'
to who is caught, Machan said.
When someone is caught, "it is a
challenge to the 'sharpies' to get
away with the same thing."
SEC regulations attempt to
stem misconduct, which is
"entirely hopeless and fruitless"
because "humans can not be
made to be good," Machan said.
Even with the gradual elimina­tion
of regulation, there is no
guarantee that any remedies,
especially those coming from the
bureaucracy, will have much
impact," Machan said.
Machan has edited a book,
Commerce and Morality: Alter­native
essays in business ethics,
which will soon be released. He
also co-edited Rights and Regula­tions
with M. Bruce Johnson in
1984.

Annual minority banquet held
By Kimberly Bradley
Staff Writer
When the train rode through
Tuskegee in 1972, Johnny Ford
hopped on it, and that's where
he's been ever since.
" I 'm not talking about
Amtrack or the Dixie Humming­bird,
but the National Conference
of Black Mayors Express," said
Ford, mayor of Tuskegee, at the
third annual Minority Banquet
last Thursday night.
Ford, who was the guest
speaker at the banquet, founded
the International Conference of
Black Mayors, which has
members from more than 31
nations. Ford is one of 294 black
mayors in the country.
Whether getting on the "train
for political equality" or becom­ing
a doctor or a lawyer, Ford told
the students that they could do
anything they could set their
minds to.
"Just set goals and meet the
challenge," he encouraged.
"Meeting the Challenges of
Excellence in Education through
a Commitment of Unity" was the
theme of the banquet which
honored academic and athletic
excellence and community
service.
The individual awards
included the following:
—Outstanding Scholar Award
to Janice Johnson.
—Greg Pratt Award for Out­standing
Freshman Athlete to
Arthur "Spud" Grubbs.
—Earl Higgins Award for Out­standing
Male Student to Harold
Melton.
—Bessie Holloway Award for
Outstanding Female Student to
Charlotte Trumble.
—Martin Luther King Award
for Outstanding Service to Oth­ers
to Jesse Harvey.
—Faculty/Staff Award for
Outstanding Service to Debora
Liddell.
—Outstanding Minority Alum­nus
Award to Rick Rogers.
Auburn University Gospel
Choir sang the Black National
Anthem, "Lift Every Voice and
Sing," and the group performed
"That's What Friends Are For."
Other speakers included Presi­dent
James Martin who thanked
Ford for making the trip to
Auburn, and master of ceremo­nies
Meivin Dale, who ended the
evening by reading the Auburn
creed.
Good news for cotton farmers

Fungi and insects usually mix
about as well as fire and gasoline,
but two of these arch-enemies, or
fungisects, are being used by
researchers in the University's
Alabama Agricultural Experi­mental
Station to combat a yield-robbing,
profit-reducing disease
in cotton.
Cotton farmers use up to 100
pounds per acre of PCNB and
other fungicides annually to con­trol
a number of seedling diseases
caused by Rhizoctonia solani, a
soil borne fungus. Commonly
called rhizoc or damping off, dis­eases
directly caused by rhizoc­tonia
fungi cost cotton farmers
millions of dollars annually in
reduced stands, replanting and
fungicide protection. Experimen­tal
biocontrol agents to control
rhizoc diseases have been sought
from all over the world, with
fungi getting most of the
attention.
Researchers at Auburn, led by
Dr. Roy Curl and doctoral stu­dent
Robert Lartey, recently
found that minute insects, com­monly
called springtails or col-lembola,
feed on fungi, including
Rhizoctonia solani, and thus
reduce severity of cotton seedling
diseases. Populations of 450-900
of the 1-2-millimeter-long insects
per pound of soil provided excel­lent
control of rhizoctonia dis­eases
in cotton seedlings in
greenhouse studies at Auburn.
But what about the beneficial
fungi that science has worked so
hard to develop? If springtails
destroy rhizoc, won't they also
kill beneficial fungi? Curl
explained that springtails will
attack beneficial fungi, but only
if there is no rhizoctonia for them
to attack. However, if both rhizoc
and beneficial fungi exist in the
soil, springtails definitely prefer
Rhizoctonia solani over Tricho-derma,
Gliocladium, and Laeti-saria,
the three most promising
biocontrol fungi being tested to
combat Rhizoctonia solani.
When any of the three biocon­trol
fungi were used together with
springtails, they were double
trouble for rhizoc fungi. "In our
tests," Curl said, "we recorded a
root damage index (0=no disease
and 5=dead plants) of 3.78 on cot-,
ton plants with no protection
from Rhizoctonia solani. When
we used springtails alone, the-injury
rating dropped to 2.35.'
When we used one of the biocon-*
trol fungi, it dropped to 2.26.,
When we used both the spring"-_
tails and one of the biocontrol
fungi, or fungisects, the root
damage index dropped to 0.74."
Curl stressed that these tests
were conducted in the greenhouse\
and field applications may be
years away. Still, the prospect of --'
controlling a most costly disease
with abundant, inexpensive fun.1"- \
gisects, should provide some";
optimism for Alabama cotton
growers, who annually produce ;
over 300,000 acres of cotton in the
state.

Answer this
Looking for another seemingly
arbitrary decision made by the
administration of this fine Univer­sity?
Look no further t h a n the prob­lems
Auburn seems to be having
1 with finding an adequate dean for
. the College of Liberal Arts.
Although a search committee for
the position voted in favor of a can­didate,
and the department heads of
this college voted overwhelmingly
in favor of this candidate, the nomi­nation
was not acceptable to the
administration.
True, this candidate is a n internal
one and has the most connections
with the department heads, and the
vote in the committee was a close
one. But this is the second time a
search committee for this deanship
has presented a candidate for the
position, and we still don't have a
dean.
There seemed to be a rift in this
committee, and there were two
camps (like every argument/deci-sion/
debate/slugfest on campus)
formed. But the questions about
search committees and what their
real functions are must be answered.
Are search committees supposed
to find a candidate acceptable to
them, or to the administration? Are
they an advisory board that just
makes recommendations, or are
they to make binding decisions?
Should a member of the administra­tion
be t h e chairman of these search
committees? If so, should he make
his preferences known earlier in the
game t h a n the final vote?
Want more? Should department
heads of the college or school need­ing
a dean be allowed to sit on the
search committee? Should the col­lective
vote of these heads be given
any weight toward the final deci­sion?
Should internal candidates be
allowed? Who gets the corn beef and
swiss on rye during the break?
Before a new commitee is formed,
guidelines need to be made up that
specifically outline what it is sup­posed
to do. And when those are set
up, t h e members need to know what
they are.
The Plainsman thinks there has
been some mismanagement and
bungling with this situation. The
question over when the members
knew the chairman's preference is a
thorn in the side. But can't we get
this over with soon and s t a r t spend­ing
money and time where it is
needed — improving the College of
Liberal Arts?
Find a dean, but first set some
search commitee guidelines. That
will obviously make the process
much easier and will eliminate
problems.
Style over substance
I t ' s been a week now and every­body's
had a chance to look through
the Glomerata and find their pic­tures.
Of course, The Plainsman
staff has received theirs, and we
would like to throw in our two cents
worth.
A stylish book no doubt, but how
much substance is there to this
year's book?
The cover is one of the best in.
many a year, a n d the design inside,
while it has its occasional difficul­ties,
is excellent. But once you get
through the beautiful pictures and
color shots, what else is there?
The introduction, if you'll pardon
our comparison, reads more like an
obituary for Auburn University
than a remembrance of this year.
"College days were like no other" it
begins. They are still like no other to
everyone who's not graduating.
Closer inspection of t h e inside dis­closes
misspelled names, capitaliza­tion
problems and inconsistent cap­tion
writing. Why aren't t h e last four
Glomeratas pictured on page 20 like
the caption says they are?
Of course, the gallery section of
beautiful photos is nice, but isn't
this supposed to be a yearbook of
Auburn University 1986-87? Where
are t h e snow-capped mountains and
cascading waterfalls in Lee County?
Maybe if you drive way out Wire
Road....
And with apologies to a certain
honorary t h a t now poses as a mil­itary
auxiliary, and the junior class,
who h a s been given t h e misnomer of
being called the senior class one
year too early, the list goes on and
on. Should we dare mention the var­ious
and sundry spellings (Mortor?
Motor?) of another honorary, Mor­tar
Board, in the beauties section?
True, The Plainsman is not a per­fect
newspaper, but we do stab
attempts at consistency and spell­ing
things correctly. The Glomerata
is a good-looking book, but if you
read closely, you will notice the
faults. It's a case of style over .
substance.
Quarter's worth
Remember the saying, "A penny
for your thoughts?" SGA President
Harold Melton obviously gave the
University senate a quarter's worth
last Tuesday, if you'll excuse that
banal pun.
At that meeting, Melton spoke up
in favor for all us students to keep
the quarter system here at Auburn.
He cited all the reasons students
want a quarter — shorter periods in
one class with one teacher, co-oping,
the need to understand what they
are studying and not get bogged
•down with a semester's worth of
Milton (not Melton), and so on.
Anyway, to get right down to it,
the senate voted 45-29 in favor of
keeping the quarter system. And the
students got what they wanted for
once.
Of course, the vote may have not
even been swayed by Melton's
informative discourse, but i t ' s pleas­ing
to know students got what they
wanted.
Let's throw some conjecture out
for a minute. If this had passed,
would the administration approve
the switch to semester? And if they
did, how would we get the money to
switch and how quickly would it
take to get t h e first angry phone call
or letter to the editor about the
switch?
Let's forget the last part of that
and wonder about t h e money. We all
know Auburn's greenback problem,
and this would have only added
more of a burden to it. Now is not the
time to switch from a financial
standpoint.
Students should rejoice, for the
quarter system h a s been saved. But
if it h a d not, would we have had the
money to do it properly? Scary.

He's made my life much easier
Chris
ROUSH i '
I have this belief that everyone in the
world, without regard to race, religion,
previous servitude and all that, should,
have someone to follow as a role model.
Someone to look up to, to admire and to
strive to be like them. I have someone
like this.
I've tried to emulate this person as
much as I possibly could. He's been my
example to follow. I pick out his charac­teristics
and attempt to put them in
myself. It seems I even get the bad char­acteristics,
but I don't mind that. It just
makes me be more like him.
He's someone I look up to, even though
I'm much taller than he and have been
since I was 14. That didn't seem to make
any difference in my heart. He was still
number one.
I was there when he went through col­lege,
and I watched him support his wife
and two kids while getting two degrees.
Even though I was too young to under­stand
then what he was going through,
after my experiences in college I can
appreciate it more.
He's one tough person on the outside
and he doesn't talk much. I've seen him
in many situations and I don't think he's
failed in anything he's tried.
As a student, he was one of the best. I
followed him here at Auburn, another
one of the ways I've tried to be like him.
The professors he had and knew told me
he was one of the best they had. That
doesn't surprise me.
He's still the smartest person I've ever
met. Games of Trivial Pursuit are no fun
with him. It is a common occurrence that
he can answer every question on one of
those bothersome cards.
A mind like a steel trap could well
explain him if you had to pick from a list
of overworn expressions. He is the only
person I know who can still recite
"Casey at the Bat" word for word and
then break into Wordsworth without
skipping a beat.
These are not even his strong points,
although I would be hard pressed to tell
you what they were. He once translated
a French book into English during his
spare time, and he could take apart and
put back together his old portable
typewriter just to get the kinks out. His
accomplishments are too numerous to
mention, but suffice it to say he's a well-rounded
person indeed.
The one thing he wasn't good at, and
something for which I thank him for,
was sports. People good in sports while!
they are young tend to push ones,
younger than them to succeed. Never
once did he push me to be better or yell at
me when I'd strike out in little league or
ignore me after a heart-breaking loss.
That's the way sports should be.
You could say that I'm awed by this
person. I've had a lot of good times with
him, and he's never treated me like the
much younger person I am. I've always
been an equal.
He has given me the best memories of
my life. I remember all the baseball
games he took me to, even if it was to
watch the last-place Braves. He gave me
everything I ever needed, but was also
stern enough to say "no" when I asked
for something he knew I didn't need
even though I couldn't understand why.
I always had a bat and a glove and
money to buy baseball cards. But what
sticks out in my mind is the books. I
always had books to read and was given
every chance to learn as much as I could.
The one thing I like about him was
that there was never any pressure to
succeed. Because I had no pressure from
him is what made me want to be good.
He knew exactly how to handle me.
I've seen him do a lot of things. He was
the book manager at J & M when he was
in college, and then he was a history
professor. Then he decided there was
more money elsewhere, and his lifetime
avocation became his vocation. Now he
makes more money than I would ever
hope to and goes to Europe once a year to
fulfill a dream — driving fast race cars.
He's been through some tough times
and sacrificed a lot. But now he has
everything he could possibly want in his
life. He seems to be a very content man
right now.
Thanks Dad, for making me work for
everything I've got and being there
whenever I needed you. I know we don't
talk much anymore, but it's because as I
get older I realize everything you've
done to make my life easier. I love you
very much.

Why is Haley Center falling apart?
Patti
COLEGROV
Wouldn't Paul be upset?
Paul S. Haley, the man Haley Center
was named after, would be embarrassed
to see the state of his building.
Haley Center is falling apart. Sure, we
all know that. Tell us something we
don't know.
OK, why is Haley Center falling apart
while other buildings on this campus get
beautified?
What buildings, you ask? Does
Jordan-Hare Stadium ring a bell?
Jordan and Hare don't have anything
to be ashamed of. Their building has
recently received plenty of money.
There aren't even too many of the men
who these buildings are named after
who could be upset. The only thing
against James E. Foy is War Eagle
Cafeteria, worms and all.
Ralph B. Draughon is doing OK. He
even has computers in his building. All
he lacks are a few more books and
maybe more floors.
Jordan and Hare not only have
nothing to be ashamed of, they have
everything in the world to brag about
—a new scoreboard, seating expansion
and the new luxury suites with every­thing,
even the proverbial kitchen sink.
Now, on the other hand, poor Paul.
Paul has ceilings that are falling
apart. Yes, have you not noticed? The
next time you are sitting in class, look
up. Yes, it's that simple. Look up. What
do you see? Big brown spots on the ceil­ing?
Bulging ceiling tiles that look like
they will fall down on your head?
OK, now go to the elevator to get to the
ninth floor to talk to your adviser.
Oh, you can't spare an hour of your
time to ride the speedy elevator? Boy, a
Haughton elevator sure is wonderful.
Makes you wish you could ride one every
day, doesn't it?
You know, not all elevators in the
world are like the ones Haley Center
possesses. I know you're surprised, but
it's true. Yes, even the Sears Tower in
Chicago, with 60 floors, has an elevator
that can get to the top in one minute.
Come on, how expensive could new
elevators be? I heard that the Haughton
company has folded. Is this true? Is this
why the elevators can't be fixed?
Wake up, administration.
So, after a 15-minute wait, you get into
the elevator. As you step in, a million
buzzers go off. Is the elevator broken? Is
is going to fall? You don't know. But you
ride it anyway.
Slowly, slowly, (remember the turtle?)
you make it to the ninth floor. Your ride
is over.
But alas, your adviser is not in his
office. He is in the Eagle's Nest, the
dreaded 10th floor. Your face is stricken
with horror.
Do you dare venture into the land of
the trashed? But hey, if you go to the
Eagle's Nest, don't you get a fantastic
view of Jordan-Hare Stadium?
Yes. You get it in all its glory. You
have paid homage to Jordan and Hare
for the day. Your day is complete.
Why is Haley Center, the academic
stadium, falling apart while Jordan-
Hare, the athletic stadium, expands?
The funding for the stadium expansion
is not coming from the administration.
Maybe some of this money could go to fix
Haley Center? Fat chance.
The students and faculty should do
something. The administration won't.
They work in Samford Hall — they don't
even have to come to Haley Center.
Why don't the students and faculty
complain, not among themselves like we
all do, but to the administration? Why
don't we go on a hunger strike? Why
don't we refuse to ride the elevators?
Spirit points could be given to the Greeks
who participate. The faculty could go on
strike.
Do something.
Can't money come from somewhere to
help Haley Center before it falls apart?
If things keep up the way they are, our
children will go to class in Jordan-Hare
Stadium because Haley Center fell
apart.
Do something.
It's time to put down our footballs,
pick up our books and make this the
academic institution it was built to be.

Fraternities still long way from desegregation
Randy
GLAZER
When a black man named Tommy
Lanier pledged Delta Chi fraternity in
1984, many people had thought that the
flood gates had been opened and Auburn
University had sprung into a new era
—the 20th century.
Unfortunately, some Auburn alumni,
as well as many other student organiza­tions,
didn't see the need to eliminate the
"separate but equal" boundaries any
further. As a matter of fact, Delta Chi
fraternity had its charter taken away
that same year with the stipulation that
no former member could join the frater­nity
again.
Of course, the alumni made up some
ridiculous financial accusations to jus­tify
their decision, but the mere fact they
didn't even listen to the students' rebut­tals
to the accusations seems to indicate
that their minds were made up and
finances were not at the root of the prob­lem.
If they simply wanted to kick
Tommy out, they should have at least
had the integrity to expose themselves
as racists. However, they did not and the
myth lives on.
Now a new Delta Chi controversy over
pledging a black man has spurred on the
same old controversy. Dare a black man
be around men who are not his color? Is
this legal in the Heart of Dixie?
Apparently when the word had gotten
out the fraternity wanted to pledge a
black, members of some sororities issued
a no-social ultimatum with the frater­nity
contingent upon the man's accep­tance.
Whether these girls were acting
on the part of the sorority or merely act­ing
as individuals is not clear. Needless
to say, however, the man was voted
down and once again alibis were forged
for the possible defense of the fraternity.
Since there are no black members in
any white fraternities or sororities, and
virtually no interaction among the
racially different Greek organizations
exist, one must ask the natural question,
Are people in Auburn as bigoted as they
may seem?
To answer this auestion, I sampled
many people from Greek organizations
and asked their opinion about mixed
fraternities and mixed socials. Unfortu­nately,
most of them requested to keep
their name and fraternal affiliation
secret primarily for fear of ridicule.
However, here is a sample of what the
people in Auburn are thinking:
David Marshall, 04 GSC, Sigma Pi:
"It's kind of silly that blacks are
shunned away. I really doubt many
brothers would seriously take to the idea
of a black brother."
David Biven, Lambda Chi Alpha pres­ident:
"If somebody's a quality person,
they shouldn't be rejected because of
their color."
Alfred Lindsey, Kappa Alpha Psi
adviser: "Kappa Alpha Psi does not dis­criminate
on the grounds of race, creed
or color. It's that simple."
Kirk McGill, 04 GPO: "There are tons
of black Delta Sig's (at other schools).
The Auburn chapter wouldn't care, it's
the alumni that might have a problem."
Todd Stratton, 04 MK, IFC rush vice
president: "The official policy is that it
doesn't make a difference what color you
are. The IFC does not discriminate."
Roger Woody, 03 GBI, Phi Beta
Sigma: "(The fraternities who discrimi­nate)
haven't found the true spirit of
being Greek. You don't judge a person on
their race, creed or religion, but on their
personality. These fraternities aren't
looking for brotherhood, but merely
looking for people who look like
themselves."
In a discussion with members of at
least three sororities and one fraternity,
I was given these responses to the issue
of racial integration at Greek socials:
"A lot of people's parents would
object."
"It's the type of thing that might work
ideally, but when it really comes about,
nothing will happen (nobody will
participate)."
"I think a lot of girls would be intimi­dated
with going to a party and simply
seeing black guys there."
"Working around athletes, I know
how girls can be harassed. Girls are
afraid black guys will call them up after
the social is over and harass them."
"This is the wrong school for that sort
of thing."
Finally, I asked a member of a black
fraternity on campus about how he
would feel about a mixed social. He was
with two of his fraternity brothers and it
seemed as if they formed a consensus
opinion. He said, "I don't think most
white sorority girls would feel comforta­ble
at one of our parties primarily
because we have a lot of locals come to
our parties and it's very possible that
girls may be harassed. However, if we
were invited to one of their parties, there
wouldn't be any problems.
"We're college students, we know how
to act. The difference between us and the
athletes is that we're not hard up. Girls
don't have to worry about us hassling
them for dates later. I can only speak for
myself, but there are certain times you're
going to have to be seen with your honey
in public and I personally don't prefer to
be seen holding hands in the mall with a
white girl. There's a difference between
preference and prejudice. Just because I
don't prefer to date a white girl doesn't
mean I'm prejudice to the point of not
wanting to have a social with them."
Unfortunately, this guy is right.
Simply refusing to spend a platonic
evening with people of a different race is
prejudice. Regrettably, mixed socials do
not exist in Auburn.

Look at the real problem
Editor, The Plainsman:
An article in the May 14 Plainsman
concerning the semester/quarter sys­tem
issue got my attention. SGA Presi­dent
Harold Melton and other SGA offi­cials
stood in favor of the quarter system
and offered reasons for their opinion.
One reason was, "It's not the fear of
being in a boring class that long, it's the
fear of being stuck with a teacher who
can't teach."
If this is the case, then these SGA
leaders and representatives should not
be concerned with the issue of being on
quarter or semester system, but with the
elimination of teachers who can't teach.
If there are teachers who can't teach,
then how come Melton and these other
newly - elected student representatives
are wasting time with trivial inconven­iences,
like the quarter/semester sys­tem,
and not dealing with real problems,
like teachers who can't teach? After all,
what are we here for?

Are there any Alabama elk?
Editor, The Plainsman:
We guess we learn something new
every day. For instance, last week we
learned that elk are now "thriving" in
Alabama due to intensive management
and restoration on the part of public
authorities.
It seems that Colleen M. Moran,
author of "Resource Danger" (p. A-3,

Getting to Hart of situation
is need to discover character
Kirsten
SCHLICHTING
How much freedom should the press
actually have? This has been a hotly
debated issue ever since the First
Amendment was written. The Pentagon
Papers, Vietnam, Watergate — all these
incidents, as well as minor ones, have
brought the press under fire. In the past
few weeks, the issue has been brought up
again — this time with the coverage of
Gary Hart.
In last week's Plainsman, there were
letters concerning Hart's withdrawal
from the Democratic presidential nomi­nation
race and how the press covered
(and uncovered) it. I'm glad to see stu­dents
realize what an important issue
this is — not only concerning the press,
but the personal characteristics of a pres­idential
hopeful as well.
Iknowwhat some of you are thinking:
she is a journalist, so naturally she will
defend her profession. That would be a
logical assumption, and indeed that is
the side with which I agree, but give me
the benefit of the doubt.
Even if I weren't a journalist I would
have to take the side of the press on this
one. Don't misunderstand — I do not
condone irresponsible journalism any
more than Woodward and Bernstein of
The Washington Post did. However, the
reporting in the Hart case was not
irresponsible.
What The Miami Herald and The
Washington Post did was to quite
responsibly give the American public
valuable information about a possible
future national leader. If we, the ones
who put people in office, are expected to
vote intelligently, we need to be well
informed. We need to know not only
about where the candidates stand on
major political issues, but also about
their character.
In a letter in The Plainsman last week,
the author claimed that "character (of
the candidate) is important, but is not a
paramount concern." This seems to me a
ridiculously naive statement. Character
of a candidate is just as important, if not
more so, as the issues are. If a man does
not have the integrity to respect his mar­riage
vows, certainly we cannot expect
him to respect his presidential vows.
What baffles me is that in a May 9
Newsweek poll, 64 percent said the press
treated Hart unfairly. In a Los Angeles
Times poll, 60 percent said Hart should
not have withdrawn from the race. This
is a sad statement on our society if peo­ple
no longer care what the morals of
their leader are.
Hart, on the day he withdrew, called
the press "hunters" and said it reduces
political candidates to being hunted.
What infuriated me about that state­ment
is that Hart was not regretful or
upset about what he had done; he was
only mad that he had been caught.
Apparently, what Hart — and a lot of
America — does not understand is that
he is a public figure. Hart purposely put
himself in the public eye. When anyone
does that they know fully well every­thing
they say and do will be seen and
talked about. He was not treated
unfairly; in fact, if the press hadn't
reported it, that would have been unfair
to us.
On Friday, May 12, CNN's Crossfire
program debated this issue. One guest
was Jeff Cohen, a representative for
Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting
(FAIR). But instead of defending how
the press covered the issue, he accused it
of too much trivialization and not
enough emphasis on the "real" issues.
He was in effect saying the Herald and
Post were inaccurate and unfair in their
coverage of the Hart situation. If it
weren't true, why doesn't Hart sue?
Cohen also brought up the issue of
right to privacy. He said reporters were
"peeping in Hart's windows." It is true
that the Herald had someone follow
Hart; however, no one was peeping in
anyone's windows. Hart, in fact, had
made a statement earlier that in effect
said they could follow him if they
wanted, but they wouldn't find
anything.
The bottom line is this: the voters need
to be informed in order to select the best
candidate for president — the highest
office in the United States. What was
uncovered was essential to the voters'
decison-making process, and the press
broke no laws in what it did.
If a man will cheat on his wife, he'll
cheat on his country.

'Red light'for a day warned
not to get more than share
Janet
J1MMERSON
I was Auburn's "red light" for a day.
I'd been warned a hundred times, a
hundred different ways, not to do it. Now
my hopelessly pink complexion has
turned red...not a delicate blush, but a
fiery, painful, burning red.
Last Saturday, I joined spring's on­slaught
of sun worshippers and soaked
up more than my share. By Sunday
night I couldn't move. Pain prevented
even the simplest maneuver — walking,
sitting, standing, sleeping, eating...yes,
even breathing. And, of course, the tim­ing
was perfect. I had to work on Sun­day,
study for two major tests and com­plete
two papers by Monday.
When Monday arrived I was giving
thanks to a merciful god that had graced
me with the ability to walk like a normal
human being. I don't think I could have
attracted more attention, however, if I
had shaved my head. Strangers politely
questioned me about my glowing condi­tion,
then clucked their tongues with
sympathy. Acquaintances suggested
every cure known to man, from aloe to
vinegar, and everyone had a similar
story to relate.
I have since progressed to the itchy
phase and I know, though I slaved to
prevent it, I will begin to peel soon.
Yes, I know it was my own fault. And,
if I didn't know, many a giggling friend
has been quick to remind me.
Why did I do this to myself?
I only wanted a healthy tint. Just
enough color to separate myself from the
library hermits and reduce the glare of
my pale white body against the bronzed
forms strolling the concourse. But
somewhere between sleepless nights of
tossing and moaning, and teeth-clenching
aloe treatments I think I
decided it wasn't worth it.
It was not a tough decision. I just
weighed the pain of second-degree burns
on my chest against a summer of
freckles.
Many of you have never experienced a
burn this bad before and, if you have
burned, it probably turned brown in a
few days. But, for those of you who are
cursed with this affliction, I caution you
to reflect on your last painful experience,
and reconsider before oiling up.
Who knows maybe next summer will
find me right back out there, baby oil in
hand...but I don't think so.
