Auburn turns out to vote
CLAY BOWMAN/ Staff
Lee County
chooses Pierce
by Ken Bradley
Staff Writer
After being re-elected
as Lee County'Commissioner
in Tuesday's
election, Republican
Sam Pierce said his victory
provides some con- L
solation for the president's
loss.
"Physically, I'm tired,
but emotionally, I'm
very happy," he said.
Pierce, who defeated
Democrat Mike
Williams by an estimated
1300 votes, said the University
students played a vital role in getting
him re-elected.
"Half the voters in my district
were Auburn students, and I carried
around 75 percent of them,"
Pierce said.
SAM PIERCE
"I commend them for coming out
and voting.
"Being a teacher at Southern
Union, I relate well to
students.
"I think of
myself as a college student,
not a 43-year-old,"
Pierce said.
Pierce said he
believed he performed
well in his first term and
said Lee County should
expect more of the
same.
"I think I've
done a good job. I've
made improvements in
areas that the county commission
wanted such as improving education,
law enforcement, roads and
bridges and in the solid-waste

Inaccurate registration lists
send voters scrambling
by Cathl Harris
Assistant News Editor
Voting in Tuesday's election was almost
more trouble than it was worth, according to
some Auburn residents.
In addition to waiting in line for hours,
inaccurate voter-registration lists forced
many voters on a long search for the right
polling place. Some voters were inadvertently
dropped from the lists altogether.
"I went to three different places," Michael
Alexander, 03PO, said. "I went to Frank
Brown (Recreation Center). They told me to
go to the middle school, but they didn't have
my name either. Then I went to Dean Road.
They had my name on the list but they had
the wrong address."
Alexander said he knew several other people
who had a difficult time voting.
The problem, according to Mary Jo
Collins, a deputy registrar in Lee County,
was last-minute changes in the poll lists.
After the 1990 census, the districts had to
be redrawn according to population. This
meant that some residents would vote in different
places, Collins said.
Errors were found in the poll lists as they
were being typed into the computer, Collins
said.
"New voter ID cards with a different
polling place were mailed out from the computer
room just last week," Collins said.
"Some cards did not reach the voters in
time."
Ruth Speake, chief poll inspector for district
2, said many voters did not know where
to go in the first place.
"Many people just assume that they vote at
City Hall," Speake said.
Long voter lines
plague area polls
by Kim Chandler
News Editor
High voter turnout and long waits at the polls characterized
Tuesday's election.
Betty Blackmon of the Lee County Board of Registrars
said 50.2 percent of Lee County's 68,522 registered
voters were at the polls.
Blackmon said although she had no data to confirm
it, she thought there was an increase in the number of
students registering for this election.
"This was more students than I've ever had to deal
with before. And that is just great."
The large number of people voting Caused long
lines at polling places.
Voters encountered waits as long as three hours at

Chlamydia infects 10 percent of students
The silent STD' strikes
nearly 3 million a year,
- according to control center
by Garrett Youngblood
Staff Writer
Nearly one in 10 Auburn students have been infected
with the sexually-transmitted disease chlamydia, Pat
Ellis, assistant director of health education at Drake,
said.,
The infection rate of 9.6 percent comes from past
studies, and although no recent surveys have been conducted,
that number is good indication of the current
situation, Ellis said.
Chlamydia is referred to as "the silent STD" because
its symptoms can go undetected.
It is the most common sexually transmitted disease
in the United States. Nearly 3 million Americans
i become infected «very year according to the Centers
for Disease Control (CDC) in Atlanta.
Chlamydia is the fastest-spreading STD among people
15 to 25 years of age, according to Drake.
As many as 80 percent of females have no symptoms
of the disease at all. However, the symptoms are more
noticeable in males.
In males, the symptoms include painful urination
and a watery discharge from the penis.
Females may notice a dull pain, itch or burn in the
genitals. Other symptoms include vaginal discharge as
well as bleeding between menstrual periods.
The effects of chlamydia can be serious if the disease
is not detected in time.
Chlamydia can spread into the females reproductive
organs, causing inflammation. This can lead to pelvic
inflammatory disease, which can cause sterility in
females.
The Alabama Department of Public Health reports
chlamydia renders an estimated 11,000 American
woman sterile each year.
If untreated in males, the disease can spread to the
testicles and cause sterility.
Betty McCreery, nuMng supervisor for the Lee
"All individuals need to think in
terms of safe sex; know your
sex partner and do use
condoms."
—BETTY MCCREERY
Lee County Health Department
County Health Department, said, "The use of a condom
does decrease chances of transmitting chlamydia
between sex partners.
"You need to emphasize that all individuals need to
think in terms of safe sex; know your sex partner and
do use condoms," she said.
Chlamydia can be treated and cured through the use
of antibiotics.
Females who have yearly pelvic exams are tested for
chlamydia. Anyone who suspects he or she has symptoms
of chlamydia should contact Drake Student
Health diner to schedule an exam. •

Sefton addresses
election date change
by Cathi Harris
Assistant News Editor
The SGA took the first step
Tuesday night in its bid to have the
date of the Auburn city elections
moved from the summer to the fall.
At Tuesday's City Council meeting,
SGA President Pat Sefton read
a resolution, passed unanimously
Oct. 26 by the SGA senate,
requesting that the council attempt
to change the date of city elections
to better enable students to participate
in city government.
"The students make up 20,000 of
the city population," Sefton said.
"They are affected by the government."
In the resolution, Sefton pointed
out that by moving the elections
from the second week in July to the
second week in October, they
would coincide with local elections
in both Birmingham and Montgomery.
The present election dates preclude
most students from voting or
filing absentee ballots, according to
the resolution.
Sefton read the resolution to the
council and asked that it be placed
on a future agenda. Mayor Jan
Dempsey said the council would
consider the recommendations.

Sefton said the SGA's attempt to
do something about the city elections
came about after several students
came to him and expressed
their desire for a change.
"By switching (the election) to
the second week in October, the
students can have their voice
heard," Sefton said.
Increased student participation
would benefit the city as well as
the students, he said.
"The city government has been
very responsive to the needs of the
students," Sefton said. 'This would
make community relations even
better."
Although he could not predict
when the council would act on the
resolution, Sefton said he was
encouraged by the response from
council members.
"I've spoken to all but one, and
they all promised to keep an open
mind," he said.
Dempsey said some council
members had not had the opportunity
to study the resolution and
would need time to look it over.
"We cannot give a specific time,
but we will give it a lot of
thought," she said.
Sefton encouraged students who
felt strongly about the resolution to
contact their council representatives.

said.

Greeks haunt house for Project Uplift
by Amanda Taylor
Staff Writer
This Halloween, two greek organizations
took time to provide
ghoulish delights for needy children
in the area.
Lambda Chi Alpha held its 14th
annual haunted house for Project
Uplift last Thursday.
According to the fraternity's vice
president, Steve Roberts, this
year's haunted house was a big
success.
"I felt, personally, that this year
we had a great response from the
Project Uplift kids, and the (Project
Uplift) office was exceptionally
cooperative," Roberts saiA
Approximately 250 Auburn students
are involved with Project
Uplift, an organization which provides
local children with big brothers
and big sisters, most of whom
are from the University.
"This year, 120 children, ages 8-
12, were contacted," Roberts said.
The fraternity, acting in conjunction
with the Order of Omega honorary,
provided the children with
prizes, games and dinner after their
journey through the house.
The purpose of the event was "to
give the Project Uplift kids a
chance just to have fun on Halloween,"
Roberts said.
"Nobody went away unfright-ened,"
he said.
Also working with Project Uplift,
Zeta Tau Alpha treated more than
30 children to a night of fun and
games Oct. 27.
The children participated in bobbing
for apples, balloon relay races,
a dance contest and musical chairs
at the sorority's chapter room.
"This was the most successful
party we've had with Project
Uplift," Carol Dunn, Zeta Tau
Alpha's service chairman, said.
Dunn said she received positive
response from Project Uplift volunteers
about the event
Refreshments and candy were
given to the children who, along
with sorority members, were
dressed in Halloween costumes.
The children attended the event
with their big brothers and big sisters,
and Dunn said everyone had a
good time.
"We had a lot of fun and hope to
be as successful next year," Dunn
said.
"We're known for being a service
sorority," Dunn added. "We
take an interest in the kids."

Until President-elect Clinton proves unworthy,
he is a welcome entry to the White House
The Board of Student Communica-tions
did not allow The
Plainsman's editorial board the right to
express an endorsement (opinion) concerning
candidates in the recent elections,
but Bill Clinton is no longer
Democratic candidate Clinton; he is
President-elect Clinton.
We support our future commander-in-chief;
bid a long-overdue goodbye to
his rival, George Bush; and look forward
to at least four quality years from
our new leader.
The 1992 election was not a Democratic
victory but a Republican defeat.
Nov. 3 offered a referendum on the past
four years. Clinton did not win because
the electorate had an undying faith in
him and his policies; he is the next
president because he offered the American
people an exit ramp off the Bush
highway of stagnation.
Although he meant well, Bush could
not identify with his own party, let
alone the American people. His policies
naturally offended liberals and many
moderates. His unwillingness to conform
to Reaganite values caused even
the National Review to denounce him.
With pressure from Pat Buchanan,
Bush overemphasized the family values
theme, alienating millions. And his
oversimplification of the Cold War victory
insulted countless others.
Any way you slice it, it's good to get
rid of Dan Quayle.
But give the Republican running
mates credit: They bowed out gracefully.
Quayle said, "If Clinton runs the
White House as well as he ran the campaign,
we should be all right."
We're cautiously optimistic about the
new administration. This election
meant a lot to Auburn students. We're
all going to look for jobs some time
during the Clinton years.
The Clinton/Gore team injects life
into the future of this country's younger
generation. The new leadership,
although unproven, should do a better
job of protecting the interests of American
citizens our age. Most importantly,
the job market should open.
And as Bush said after conceding
defeat, Clinton will be president of our
country, and we should support him.
Every citizen should rally behind the
leaders of this nation and help America
rise and continue its greatness.
The above opinions do not necessarily
reflect the views of the Communications
Board.
STAY UNDER CONTROL
Lack of abstinence, condom pose serious
risks for sexually active college students
You could die because of something
you do tonight.
According to the Centers for Disease
Control, 4 million American men and
women get the sexually transmitted disease
chlamydia each year. And as a college
community, Auburn is especially
vulnerable. Untreated, chlamydia could
lead to serious infections such as pelvic
inflammatory disease among women,
which could lead to sterility.
In addition to chlamydia, genital
warts affect at least 3 million Americans
each year and could cause cancer.
Syphilis and AIDS are also on the
uprise.
College men and women are a high-risk
group for each of these diseases,
which could be contracted by anyone
engaged in sexual intercourse if the
partners do not take certain precautions.
It could happen to you.
The best method to prevent contracting
a sexually tranmitted disease is to
abstain from sexual intercourse.
But if contact is a must, partners
should conduct examinations of themselves
and each other before conducting
sexual acts.
Anyone engaged in sexual activity
should wear a condom. Although
Auburn does not distribute condoms
like some other universities, condoms
are readily available at area pharmacies
and groceries. The CDC recommends
latex condoms ("natural skin" condoms
contain open pores) and water-based
lubricants along with a spermicide containing
nonoxynol-9.
Think and be careful. Your life is on
the line.
Long lines show Auburn patriotism
As my freshman-basketball coach in high
school walked into practice 20 minutes late,
he used to say, "BRRomeley (he never
knew how to say, much less spell, my
name), it's a great day to be an American!"
He would laugh in his neanderthal manner
and proceed to sit my Charles Barkley
wanna-be self on the plastic bench to ponder
other career options.
Although Coach (and I use this title
loosely) was a staunch Republican, his
phrasology was apropos for Election Day
1992. No matter whom each voter supported,
as the voting lines wound endlessly
from the Auburn polling stations, all who
appreciate the American system had to feel
some tingles down their spine.
How it should be...
Tuesday, America saw democracy at
work: free, individual citizens taking positions
and making decisions on how this
great country of ours should be run. Auburn
residents, students and professors took time
out of busy schedules to choose the next
leaders of the nation, state and county.
Student apathy? I think not.
The students of Auburn waited between
one and three hours to pull the switches on
what David Brinkley said was the nastiest
campaign he ever saw (and he's seen quite
a few). Even with all the mudslinging, students
turned out in record numbers. Everyone
who voted should give themselves a
pat on the back. James Madison, Thomas
Seth
Blomeley
Jefferson and even Harry Truman had to
look down with pride at this patriotic little
football town.
Kudos to...
Auburn students should thank two of
their own for helping stir up the collective
political conscience of the campus. Tom
Whatley, president of the College Democrats,
and Mike Shaw, president of the College
Republicans, took giant steps to eliminate
student apathy at Auburn.
In doing so, the two followed the lead of
Bill Clinton and George Bush, each dishing
out and taking a lot of heat during the past
few weeks and arousing feelings and waking
intellects that otherwise would have
laid dormant.
Despite the bitter battles on the concourse,
those daily collisions created an
invaluable forum for campus discussion.
Granted, Whatley is much happier. But he
deserves it. Live it up, Tom.
But not to...
The Lee County Probate Judge's office
screwed up big time. Because of erroneous t
computer entries, bad advice to prospective o
voters and a complete disregard for dissem- •
ination of information to the people, voter •
upon voter was forced to wait and wait
because their names did not appear on «
printouts of registered voters. Other citizens*
didn't bother to wait, but went home when %
it became apparent that the Lee County
government did not care if its residents participated
in the local democratic process or
not.
The county failed to notify most voters if
their district changed from the last election.
One poll worker said the computer entirely
dropped some registered voters who were
conscientious enough to send in a change of
address. The computer showed one longtime
Auburn resident as having moved to
Opelika. The glitches caused poll workers
to make repeated calls to an often-impossible-
to-get-through line to the probate judge
to verify the individuals as registered to
vote.
Another poll worker said he had never
seen anything like it in more than 20 years.
The county owes its citizens an apology
for giving many voters severe headaches
during what was, for most, a great day to be
an American.

Politics and Policy
Dewey Defeats Truman...
Knock on wood. One advantage of being
a political writer is that few people remember
what you write. That includes making
bad predictions. There are exceptions, of
course: the 1948 post-election headline of
the Chicago Tribune read "Dewey Defeats
Truman." Remember President Dewey?
Such are the dangers of predictions and
deadlines. For what it's worth, these were
my predictions: Bush wins Alabama by 5
points, but loses by 8 nationwide, getting
180 electoral votes.
This election year shattered many long-held
assumptions about presidential politics.
A conservative journalist challenged a
popular sitting Republican president, who
eventually lost to a liule-known Democratic
governor, in part because of a pesky Texas
billionaire. Voter turnout was up, which
isn't surprising considering the great soap
opera that unfolded. Pundits weren't the
only people humbled by the voters this
year. Here are my picks for the best, the
worst and the strangest of the 1992 presidential
campaign:
The Winners: Television talk shows, the
bus tours and 1-800 numbers.
Ross Perot was created on Larry King
Live, and the candidates appeared more
than a dozen times on that show alone. Bill
Clinton revived his campaign on television,
including a saxophone performance on
Arsenio. MVP award to the guy who
thought up the bus tour.
The Losers: James Baker, the balanced
ticket and plain Texas talk. Honorable mention
to Sister Souljah.
It was said that James Baker was in a
win-win situation. If Bush won, Baker
worked a miracle. If not, Bush was hopeless.
Well, Bush showed in the last week
Clinton wins big in wacky
1992 political sweepstakes
that he had a lot of fire. Baker, who tried to
downplay his role in the campaign, didn't
win. There's no magic there.
The No-Shows: Mario Cuomo, Jesse
Jackson, The Buchanan Brigade, Bush's
"October Surprise" (bombing Iraq), and
Perot's "silent majority."
Bill Clinton owes thank-you notes to the
liberal wing of his party, who were hungry
enough to give up power without much of a
fight This year was strange not only in
what did happen, but what didn't
Stories We Didn't Care About: Gennifer
Flowers, Jennifer Fitzgerald, Clinton's trip
to Moscow and the BCCI scandal.
Character issues were less important this
year. People seemed to pay more attention
to mundane economic news than to sensationalism.
Scandal of the Year: Iraqgate.
We won't hear the end of this for a while.
Maybe when each agency in the government
gets done investigating the others.
Scandal That Won't Go Away: Iran-Con-tra.
How we wish it would. The truth will
come out when the people involved start
selling their biographies^
Most Memorable Lines:
Bill Clinton: "I didn't inhale,"
H. Ross Perot: "Republican dirty tricksters."
George Bush: "I'll do whatever it takes."
Al Gore: "It's time for them to go."
Dan Quayle: "You're pulling a Clinton."
James Stockdale: "Who am I? Why am I
here?"
Hillary Clinton: "I could have stayed
home and baked cookies."
After Hillary's statements, no wives were
allowed to say anything.
The Overkill Award: Potatoe.
The What-Have-You-Done-For-Me Lately
Award: "Desert What?"
Lowest Blow: Church pamphlet reading
"A vote for Clinton is a sin against God."
Best Slogan We Didn't See: Annoy Saddam
Hussein: Re-elect Bush."
Most Condescending Issue: Family val- ,
ues.
Longest Overdue Issue: The national
debt.
Best Cartoon Character: Paul Tsongas as
Elmer Fudd.
On a serious note...
While we finish our political season, the
killing in Yugoslavia continues. Have you
noticed we haven't heard about Bosnia lately?
Well, the Serbians have almost completed
their "ethnic cleansing," so there are
fewer people to hear. In a month or two, we
won't have to worry about it; they'll all be
gone. Then we can pretend it never happened.
Keep your eyes and ears open.

Reagan wanna-be straddles fence, alienates true conservatives
As I exercised my American duty
Tuesday and voted, a certain disturbing
image kept floating through
my head. It was something like this:
George Bush in a little, yellow
dinghy paddling frantically against
a very strong current In the distance,
there is the deafening roar of
a waterfall. But after four years of
weak navigation, Bush has proven
he and the yellow dinghy belong
together.
To many conservatives, there was
something that never rang true
about the pseudo-Reaganite. And
most of us wondered what Reagan
was doing when he chose Bush to
be his right-hand man in the first
place. Maybe it was a maneuver to
manipulate the geographical vote.
n Jan
Clifford
On the Right
Maybe it was just an oversight on
the part of Reagan campaign advisers.
Whatever the reason, it hardly
mattered as we enjoyed eight years
of conservative Utopia.
But thank you very much, Ronnie,
you left us with a man who
rode into the Oval Office on your
coattails and managed to become
the No. 1 reason the Republican
party has self-destructed.
The kicker is that Bush tried, in
these last few hopeless weeks, to
identify himself as a conservative.
This, after four years of walking the
proverbial fence! The times he fell
off, it was usually on the left side.
He raised taxes, hiked federal
spending, re-regulated much of
what Reagan had fought so hard to
deregulate and bowed to pressure
from environmentalist groups to
sign their job-demolishing Clean
Air Act
And look what his attempt to
appeal to the masses has earned
him. Not much. It cost him the election,
not to mention the respect of
his party.
There is something to be said for
taking a definite stand. Clinton
understood this. While he contributed
to the public-relations hype
of the "new" Democratic Party and
stayed away from the taboo "L"
word, Clinton put together one of
the most liberal platforms in the
history of that party's existence,
advocating everything from tax
increases to big government - bigger
even than that of the Bush
administration.
Those who cared to look at the
differences in agendas saw that
Clinton had clearly drawn the line
between liberal and conservative
politics. No middle-ground stuff for
him!
So the little, yellow dinghy and
its occupant (not that the two are
that distinguishable) struggled.
against the overwhelming current to
no avail and went crashing bow-first
to the rocks below. The terrifying
thought to those of us who
boldly label ourselves as conservatives
is just how many other Republican
candidates had to die as well.
As voters who in the past routinely
voted straight Republican tickets
became increasingly fed up with the
rhetoric of the lukewarm man they
had elected, many crossed party
lines in rebellion while others
sulked in a corner somewhere,
refusing to vote at all.
This election was not a referendum
on liberalism as the media and
the Democrats wanted us to bejieve.
Rather, it was simply an example of
the Republican party shooting itself
in the foot by allowing someone
who never really was part of the
club to weasel his way up to the
most important post.
I have no doubt that Bush genuinely
sees himself as a conservative.
(There is something truly
pathetic about a self-deluded man.)
But as a long-time member of that <
club and a believer in its principles,
I can say with equal genuineness,
Mr. Bush, I know what it means to
be a conservative; and you, sir, are
no conservative.

FEEDBACK
Library should save money for books, reject high ARL dues
Editor, The Plainsman:
I have a simple way to keep from canceling so many needed journal subscriptions.
Since dues to the Association of Research Libraries are $10,000 a year
and the average cost of an engineering journal is $500 a year (my conservative
estimate), the library could reinstate about 20 engineering journal
subscriptions. That is, the library could forego membership in the ARL
and, in fact, substantively improve conditions in the library.
If the library chooses to do this, head librarian Dr. HighfuTs comment,
"Essentially, what this [ARL membership] means is that a student or a faculty
member can, with some assurance, know that he or she can be able to
do their research at this institution" (Plainsman, V. 98, No. 25, 28 May
1992, page 1), would ring true. Otherwise, it's pretty clear that membership
in ARL is more important than providing journals (i.e. information)
for student use.
I would have more assurance that I could do my research if I thought the
library was spending money on journal subscriptions instead of ARL membership.

More money waste: Tbrn down AC, turn off stadium lights
Editor, The Plainsman:
Auburn University seems to be dedicated to
using our natural resources as quickly as possible.
Last football season, the stadium lights (500
by my count) were left on, day and night, uninterrupted,
for two weeks. After Saturday's game,
exterior lights were left on all night Saturday and
all day Sunday. It is now 6 p.m. Sunday and the
stadium lights are on still. Last year, this wastefulness
was continuous during the entire season.
Although not as many lights burn as often this
season, it still goes on. Outside security lights
are timed to come on sometimes before dark in
some places on campus. Foy Union is kept so
cold during the summer, student employees at
the front desk sometimes burn a space heater to
keep warm. It is the end of October, the weather
is very cool at night, yet the Foy Union air conditioning
keeps the TV area so cold that sweaters
are necessary to keep warm. Classrooms in
Haley Center are so cool during the summer that
a warm shirt with long sleeves is needed most of
the time. Some security and parking lot lights
malfunction and do not go off during daytime
hours. No one seems to be keeping up with getting
them fixed so they go off as timed.
When the University administration wastes, it
wants. It wants more tuition from the students.
Some of these students are already stressed and
strained from long hours of extra work, over and
above school work, to put themselves through
school. When will these stressed-out students
study and when will they sleep?
The University of California, Berkeley, has
saved more than $1 million through conservation
efforts. Why can't Auburn at least make an
effort to try to save through conservation? Our
natural resources are badly depleted, and the
economic boom supported by utilization of the
natural resources in the '40s and '50s will never
happen again.
The Oct. 8 edition of The Plainsman printed a
letter from Mark Foster expressing his opinion
and concern about lights burning on the stadium
during daytime hours. Apparently, his remarks
went unheeded.

• Prejudiced Burkhart describes greeks unfairly
Editor, The Plainsman:
Mr. Barry Burkhart, while you may be an expert on
acquaintance rape, you have a long road to travel to
better understand the fraternity system. Fraternity
membership is based on much more than these trivial
and external views you offer. Character, honor and personal
responsibility are more realistic expectations.
Fraternity men have consistently ranked higher in
GPAs than the University average.
I understand that you are concerned with this issue,
as well as many members of today's society, but to single
out the greek system is totally unfair. Members of
fraternities have desperately tried to shake the Animal
House syndrome but obviously to no avail.
The problem is that people like yourself do not comprehend
fraternities because you have never experienced
membership to one. I suggest that you focus your
future efforts to preventing date rape as opposed to discrediting
organizations of which you have no expertise.

Glance back...
5'years ago: A circuit court jury in Opelika recommended the death penalty in its
murder conviction of James Wyman Smith for the kidnapping, rape and killing of Linda
Talbert, a Lee County convenience-store clerk.
10years ago: By a 752-253 margin, the University general faculty overwhelmingly
defeated a motion expressing confidence in President Hanley Funderburk, after which the
faculty asked him to resign. This was his second vote of no confidence from the faculty in
less than a year.
20years ago: Deborah Whatley became the University marching band's first
female drum major at age 20.
Quote of the week...
"In 43 states in the U.S., including Alabama, it is perfectly legal to fire a lesbian
or a gay man simply because you don't like gay people." - WilUam
Rubenstein, director of the ACLU's gay rights project, in an address to about
150 people in the new Business Building last Thursday.
I'm 'ashamed'
Editor, The Plainsman:
Those of you who claim to be
Auburn fans, read this carefully. I
was shocked, though not surprised,
at the chorus of "boos" and the
"We want Nix" chants that tore
through the stands just before half-time
at the Arkansas game. I have
never before been ashamed to be an
Auburn student, but Saturday I
was. Obviously, you don't know
what it is to have spirit
I am an Auburn Tiger. If you sit
in the stands and insult our team,
do the rest of us real fans a favor,
and STAY HOME! GO

Muse ignores Auburn health
Editor, The Plainsman:
(Open letter to President Muse)
Dear Dr. Muse:
It has come to my attention that
your administration has taken little
action in regard to House Bill 454,
which became state law last spring.
It concerns me that you have not
taken a stand on this issue that is so
vitally important.
Homosexuals, like drug users, are
a proven danger to our society and
to themselves. Is it really humane
to just sit back and let these individuals
run swiftly down a dark
path which can only lead to
destruction? Wouldn't it be more
humane to put up fences discouraging
people from moving down this
path called homosexuality? Our
state Legislature has had the compassion
to erect such a fence in
House Bill 454, but evidently
someone at Auburn has forgotten to
shut the gate.
It had occurred to me that perhaps
you intend on letting this issue
die quietly, without having to take a
stand. With all due respect, sir, my
conscience and my compassion for
other human beings will not allow
that to happen. Every day, more
and more people pass through our
open gate, running blindly toward a
cliff at the end of our path. Often,
they take someone else with them.
Mr. President, Auburn cannot
afford to have the blood of these
individuals on our hands. Please,
sir, shut the gate and shut it quickly
before more are hurt

Madonna's book distasteful
Editor, The Plainsman:
In the documentary of Madonna's
last world tour, we see her confronting
some police in Toronto
who want her to take out a masturbation
scene in her concert. These
police (who obviously can't appreciate
good art) were told the same
answer she frequently gives to such
challenges: She was an "artist
expressing herself," and she would
not "compromise her artistic principles."
My first impulse was to regurgitate
profusely. But then I thought
about this a little, and realized that
maybe she had a point there.
Maybe this is art. Maybe I was just
simply mistaking her art as perversion
and depravity.
This leads one to wonder about
such so-called "artists" as Da Vinci
and Michelangelo, or writers such
as Swift or Poe. What were they
thinking? Some of these guys lived
lives of poverty, and burdened
themselves to the point of exhaustion
in their search for depth and
quality. What hacks! If they had
been true artists, they would have
been rich men. And then you have
hacks such as Mozart and
Tchaikovsky composing musical
works, and generally wasting their
energy worrying about phrasing,
complex chord interplay, and subtle
melodic and harmonic counterpoint
What a waste of time! Didn't
they know that three or four chords,
a few "Oh baby"s, a good beat, and
masturbating on stage would bring
them millions?

Minority assistant bad idea
Editor, The Plainsman:
I am concerned about the new
position of special assistant to the
president for minority advancement.
According to the story in The
Plainsman, the new position's
responsibilities, among others, will
be "to work with the admissions
office with the recruitment and
retention of minorities, and to work
with the deans in terms of a plan to
increase hiring of minority faculty
and staff."
Please don't misunderstand, I
enjoy the wealth of opportunities
created by this diverse campus.
However, I came to Auburn University
to go to school with the very
best, regardless of their race, sex,
religion, etc. It would be a travesty
if the admissions department or the
deans begin to look at a prospective
student, faculty or staff member
simply from the standpoint of
whether he or she is, or is not, a
minority.
I am an advocate for the smallest
minority in the world, the individual.
This new position simply is not
necessary. All that is needed is for
the admissions staff or search committee
to look at each person individually
and then take the individual
who will be best
Far from the desired result, this
new position can only increase the
animosity between the many and
varied people of Auburn.

Plainsman exemplifies liberal media bias
LETTER POLICIES
The Plainsman more than welcomes feedback on a wide range of topics. Letters to the editor are enjoyed and encouraged,
but we must make a few stipulations. Letters must be typed or legibly written. Letters must be less than 300 words (The
less you write, the less we must cut.) The Plainsman reserves the right to edit letters for length and grammar (The meaning
of your letter will not be altered). Letters mu$j be presented with a valid student ID to secretaries at The Plainsman,
B-100 Foy Union no later than Monday at 3 p.m. for that week's publication. Thanks for your participation.
Editor, The Plainsman:
I was happy to see Edwin Walls and Mike Cound
respond to my last letter to The Plainsman. It certainly
illustrates the wide disparity of truths out there, doesn't
it? As a conservative, I believe that there is only one
truth, and to take this little debate to higher grounds,
let's just look at the decision that was made two days
ago (the result was unknown at the time this letter was
written).
Walls and Cound are naive if they think people don't
become what they observe. Maybe you guys need to
realize that SO percent of the U.S. population has an IQ
of less than 100, the networks know that, and they also
know what is popular. Maybe I'm wrong, but to an
extent CNN has a lot to do with what is popular these
days. If you don't believe Ted Turner is biased toward
Bill Clinton, you need to do some research on the political
beliefs of Ted Turner.
The media and the Democrats are a perfect combination
if we really think about it Both run morality plays
and actively ignore fact reports. I disagree with Walls
and Cound in that I believe media professionals carefully
select pieces of dramatized information and generally
edit out anything that's not a class struggle. The
previous Plainsman is a classic example of how these
quack moralists attempt to bias the media. Out of 13
letters, stories or cartoons in its last commentary section
(the paper just before the election), there were
exactly zero pro-Republican items. Just one well-written
Republican article would have been enough to
squelch the others. This is not a big deal, and I wholly
respect the hard work of your staff, but please be a little
different from your profession by actively insuring
that there is no question of bias in your reporting. By
the way, please stop editing out key points of my letters
to you.

Core curriculum gets good review
by Ken Bradley
Staff Writer
In only its second year of
existence, the new core curriculum
is not completely evaluated, but
Jack Blackburn, vice president of
Academic Affairs, said he is
pleased with the program.
"Overall, I think it's a wonderful
improvement to the previous
curriculum," he said.
"With the former core
curriculum, so many exceptions had
been made to it that there really was
no core curriculum," Blackburn
said.
The curriculum consists of 61
hours, compared with the 52 hours
of core work previously required.
The curriculum includes 10 hours
of English composition, 10 hours of
literature, 10 hours of science, nine
hours of world history, nine hours
of social science, five hours each of
math and philosophy, and three
hours of fine arts.
"The new core provides a lot
more substance than the former
one," Blackburn said.
The only part of the core
curriculum not currently
implemented is the second English
composition course.
The English composition courses
are taken as two, five-hour classes,
one as a freshman and the other as a
junior or senior, Blackburn said.
He said he also hopes to
introduce a writing-reinforcement
course to the curriculum.
But funding for the
, implementation of the remaining
core courses is a problem,
Blackburn said.
"Additional funds need to be
provided to participating
departments to have adequate
numbers of students and teachers,"
he said.
Blackburn said the core
curriculum is beneficial to
incoming students.
"Since it is a coherent core of
courses, we believe it provides a
solid, liberal, general education for
students.
"It will provide a stronger
background for a student's major,
and it presents the opportunity for
students to look at other options."
Drake offers tips for effective exercise
Warm-up, cool down
neccesary part
of exercise program
Physical fitness is the ability to
meet routine physical demands with
enough extra energy to meet a
sudden challenge.
The Surgeon General
recommends a minimum of 20
minutes of vigorous exercise three
times a week to improve
cardiovascular function. *
For an exercise program to be
safe and effective, it must contain
three elements: a warm-up period,
aerobic exercise and a cool-down
period.
The warm-up needs to be at least
five minutes.
This increases circulation to the
muscles and connective tissues so
they will stretch without tearing
during the activity.
Also, a warm-up raises body
temperature and mobilizes oxygen
supplies to prepare you for aerobic
exercise.
Aerobic exercise is the key to a
workout program. It is a way to
make energy by using oxygen.
You know that you are doing
aerobic exercise when you've
begun to breathe hard, your heart
rate increases, and you break out in
a light sweat.
Pain is a sign you need to slow
down or stop.
Running, walking, cycling,
swimming and aerobic dance are
some of the most popular types of
aerobic exercise.
The final but important element
in an exercise program is the cool-down
period.
These activities help tissues in
the transition from exertion to
relaxation while allowing your
heart to return to its resting rate.
If you stop short of cooling
down, you're apt to feel dizzy from
blood pooling in your extremities.
Walk slowly and stretch for five or
10 minutes after exercising.
This will also prevent soreness,
injuries and muscle cramps.
Fitness should be fun. Find
activities you enjoy and vary
exercises to alleviate boredom.
You don't have to be an athlete,
and you don't have to do hours of
vigorous exercise every week to get
obvious benefits.
Great fitness is as easy as
warming up, aerobic exercise and
cooling down.

Alabama goes
'Forever Wild'
Land-acquisition
amendment passes
by large percentage
by Cathi Harris
Assistant News Editor
Alabamians voted
overwhelmingly Tuesday to
approve the proposed state-constitutional
amendment known as
the Forever Wild amendment
"Everyone involved with the
project is very excited," Pete
Conroy, president of the Alabama
Conservancy, said. "With 84
percent of the voters approving, it is
a clear mandate."
The amendment creates the
Forever Wild Trust Fund which will
provide funding for the purchase of
undeveloped lands to be preserved
for public use.
Conroy, who helped write the
amendment, said he hopes this is an
indication of the state's dedication
' to the preservation of the
environment.
Voter approval of the amendment
was the last in a series of steps to
establish the trust fund.
The amendment received
unprecedented support in the
Alabama Legislature.
The state House of
Representatives passed the bill with
a 94-3 vote June 20 of last year.
The Senate approved the bill July
12 with a vote of 29-1. The
amendment was then signed by
Gov. Guy Hunt, Conroy said.
The program is funded from a
percentage of the interest received
from the Alabama Trust Fund,
which is made up of profits from
the sale of Alabama's off-shore
natural gas.
"The interest was originally
supposed to be re-invested in the
Alabama Trust Fund to keep it
strong," Conroy said. "But the fund
was already so big that it was
decided that this money could be
used to fund Forever Wild."
Conroy said the Forever Wild
fund would probably generate $2
million in its first year.
"It is impossible to predict how
much land can be purchased, or
which land, at this time," Conroy
said.
A committee must be chosen that
will decide which lands to buy. The
committee members will have
different ideas and priorities, he
said.
Conroy said he expects the first
land purchases could be made as
early as middle to late 1993.

Democratic presidential
candidate Bill Clinton was elected
Nov. 3 to become the nation's next
president
The Lee County Democratic
Party held a victory celebration
Tuesday night at the Auburn
Conference Center and Motor

Tom Whatley, president of the
Auburn chapter of College
Democrats, said while he was
disappointed Alabama electoral
votes went to Bush, he knew
Clinton would prevail in the end.
Democratic supporters at the
event huddled around several
televisions eagerly awaiting
election results.
"I'm disappointed with
Alabama," Taylor Ferguson, 03HY,
said. "But I'm not surprised."
Joe Turnham, vice president of
the Lee County Democratic Party,
said he expected the state to go to
Bush.
"The Bush camp targeted
Alabama. They spent a lot of
resources here," he said. "Alabama
was never a state the Clinton/Gore

"Instead they targeted Georgia,

Council considers
lifting bicycle ban
by Cathl Harris
Assistant News Editor
Bicycle riders may face less
restrictions on parking in the
downtown area. Tuesday night, the
Auburn City Council considered
repealing the restrictions against
parking bikes in areas other than
bicycle racks.
Although the motion was denied
by unanimous consent at Tuesday's
meeting, council members said they
favored a more lenient bicycle
ordinance.
"Right now, the police are giving
tickets and impounding bicycles that
are not in the way of pedestrians,"
Councilor Trey Johnston said.
Johnston said although the
ordinance requires bicycles be
chained only to racks, many
businesses do not have bicycle
racks.
Mayor Jan Dempsey agreed that
the ordinance should be changed,
but opposed removing the section
on bicycle parking completely.
"That section was originally
intended as a safety measure, so that
people would not be injured by
cyclists riding on the sidewalk,"
Dempsey said.
The ordinance proposed to the
council would have repealed
subsection C of section 22-11 of the
Auburn Code of Ordinances. That
subsection prohibits bicycles from
being chained to anything other than
a bicycle rack provided by the city.
Dempsey proposed that a vote on
the measure be postponed until the
section could be reworded to allow
bicycle parking on lampposts,
fences and other fixtures, but
prevent riders from endangering
pedestrians.
Bat relocation efforts
continue in Samford
by Pat Harrell
Staff Writer
Forget about Gotham City;
Auburn is the new home of the bat
and the location of the new bat
cave.
- Troy Best, associate professor of
zoology, and Mary Mendonca are
leading the effort to move the 1,500
bats in Samford Hall to the bat
house on Donahue Drive.
Best said the bats pose no danger
but need to be transplanted so
structural damages in Samford can
be repaired.
"The building will have to be
sealed to complete the repairs, and
the bats will have nowhere to go,"
Best said.
Two kinds of bats inhabit Samford
Hall: the big-brown bat, common
throughout northern Alabama, and
the Brazilian free-tail bat, an
endangered species in Alabama.
The Brazilian free-tail is receiving
the most concern, Best said.
- The bats are captured when they
exit Samford to eat. Every four or
^fjrve nights, a bat will fly out to eat;
as it exits Samford, it will fly into a
trap.
"Eventually they will all come
out, and we will release them in the
bat house," Best said.
Most bats live for about 25 years,
and most in Samford Hall have
spent their entire life cycles there,
Best said.
Bats are intelligent animals, he
said. Several attempts have been
made to transfer the bats, but they
have returned to the warmer
temperatures at Samford, he said.
Best said he is confident the plan
will work, however.
"The bats are smart enough to
figure it out," he said. He said they
hope to have the bats moved by
some time next summer.
If the bats are not satisfied with
the house on Donahue, they have
other options available. Tri-Beta
and the Wildlife Society are
building and selling small bat
houses. The cedar-wood houses are
8-by-10-by-22 inches.
Matthew Bruckel, 04MPG, of
Tri-Beta said they have built 30 bat
houses.

SGA plans Environmental Awareness Week
by Jennifer Acevedo
Staff Writer
In its Monday meeting, the SGA
Cabinet announced plans for next
week's Environmental Awareness
Week.
"We want people to become
aware of what is going on in the
environment because people need
to start taking action," said Lynn
Andrews, who has been planning
events since last spring.
Activities for Environmental
Awareness Week will be held Nov.
9-13 and will include a number of
speakers.
Money raised from the Seeds of
Tradition campaign last spring will
go toward the purchase and planting
of two large trees near Langdon
Hall, Andrews said.
Carolyn Carr, from the Sierra
Club, will kick off the week's
events Nov. 9 at 7 p.m. in Foy
Union.
Other speakers include Opelika
City Councilor George Bandy, who
will discuss environmental justice
in a lecture titled "Why do they
dump it in Dixie?," and Larry
Freeman, a National Wildlife Fund
representative who will speak and
present a workshop.
Activities include trivia games,
with questions geared toward
environmental consciousness; a
scavenger hunt; and the showing of
the movie FernGully.
Informational posters about what
materials can be recycled on
campus will be posted.
Recycling bins for glass,
aluminum and paper will be
available on the concourse
throughout the week.
The SGA Spirit committee
announced details about the annual
Burn the Bulldog parade and pep
rally to be held Nov. 13.
Senate votes down raising GPA requirements for Cabinet members
by Jennifer Acevedo
Staff Writer
The SGA senate voted down a
resolution at its meeting Monday
night mat would have raised GPA
requirements for the SGA
Cabinet
The proposed resolution would
have raised the GPA requirement
from a 2.0 cumulative to a 2.25
cumulative.
The resolution, tabled at last
week's meeting, was not intended
to be a controversial one, Vice
President Chris Austin said.
However, it was opposed by a
number of senators last week and
was tabled for further discussion.
A number of senators,
including Tom Whatley,
expressed concern that since the
SGA is funded by student-activities
fees, which are paid by
all students, no student should be
excluded on the basis of his or
her grade point average.
Any student that maintains a
2.0 GPA is in good standing with
the University and should be*
allowed to participate in the
Cabinet, Whafley said.
The Cabinet voted to maintain'
the stipulation that anyone
wanting to participate in Cabinet*
must have been enrolled at least^
two quarters before interviewing
for the position. «
In other business, the senate,
decided to look into any progress
being made to light the area near
the Wilbur Hutsett track.

Plans for a new shelter for
Auburn's mascot, "Tiger," are off
the drawing board and awaiting
approval, according to the members
of Alpha Phi Omega who care for
the golden eagle.
The service fraternity is raising
funds to build a 10-by-20 foot,
$22,000 structure to serve as both a
shelter and storage facility for the
eagle.
Head eagle trainer Brian Helms,
06PLP, said the proposed shelter
has not yet been approved by
University Facilities, but needs to
be because the existing facilities are
inadequate.
Helms said the need for a new
shelter became apparent last spring
when Tiger VI was treated for
bumblefoot, a common bacterial
disease among captive raptors.
The infection occurs between the
scales of the feet, Helms said. The
bacteria may cause lesions to form
and break, which would allow the

bacteria to spread and could
eventually kill the bird if untreated,
he said.
In the past, the University
provided Tiger with shelter from
harsh weather when needed, Helms
said. "Shelter was never a problem
because she could stay at the
(Alpha Phi Omega) Book
Exchange," he said.
But last spring, Tiger required
about two months to heal after
surgery to correct the bumblefoot,
and she had to be kept inside, he
said.
The fraternity's adviser, James
Mitchell, arranged for the eagle's
shelter during that time in the
Langdon Annex. 'This was the first
time she had been out (of the
aviary) for so long," Helms said.
Helms said there was the option
of keeping Tiger in the veterinary
school. "But I don't want her Out
there with a bunch of sick birds," he
said.

both shelter from inclement weather
and as a storage and medical
facility, eagle trainer Rodney Cox,

03MIS, said.
University Facilities is working
on plans for the eagle-cage addition
and Oscar Waldheim II, a
Birmingham architect, is creating
the working drawings, Cox said.
"The more money we raise on
our own, the easier it will be to get
it approved," Helms said.
The fraternity takes donations at
the eagle's cage on home-game
days, and it has opened an account
for the new shelter, Helms said. So
far, only $1,000 has been raised, he
said.
Cox said the fraternity will place
a plaque on the new shelter
recognizing donors of $250 or
more.
Alpha Phi Omega will set up a
donation box at the aviary so
students can donate money.

ACLU attorney
discusses gay rights
by Jennifer Acevedo
Staff Writer
' Invoking the words of Martin
Luther King Jr., the director of the
American Civil Liberties Union gay
rights project said the time has
come for freedom for lesbians and
gay men.
William Rubenstein, who also
directs the ACLU AIDS project,
spoke to an audience of about 150
in the Business Building last
Thursday.
'The purpose of his being here is
to give us the material to be
mindful," AGLA faculty adviser
Barry Burkhart said. "We have to
think beyond what we've been
taught. That's always very
difficult"
In his lecture, "Defining a Civil
Society: Lesbians, Gay Men and
the Role of the Law," Rubenstein
outlined the history of gay-rights
law and described the current state
of these laws within the United
States.
In 1960, every state had a law
prohibiting sodomy, he said. Today,
fewer than half have laws on the
books and that number is
decreasing.
The Kentucky Supreme Court
struck down its state sodomy law
last month, saying it violated the
state-constitutional right to privacy.
"When you go to the U.S.
Supreme Court building, it says
'Equal Justice For All,"' the judges
wrote. "But here in Kentucky, those
words are more than mere words."
The Kentucky decision went
against a U.S. Supreme Court
ruling in the Hardwick case which
upheld the right of a state to
criminalize sex between people of
the same gender.
"The Kentucky Supreme Court's
decision signals other state courts to
the possibility of striking down
their sodomy laws under their state
constitution," Rubenstein said.
Twenty years ago, no state law
existed prohibiting discrimination
against gay men and lesbians,
Rubenstein said.
Today, more than 125
municipalities and seven states
have laws which protect
homosexuals from discrimination in
employment, housing and public
accommodation.
Among these states are
Wisconsin, Massachusetts and,
most recently, California, which
passed its law this year.
While the struggle to eliminate
sodomy laws and to promote antidiscrimination
laws began 30 years
ago, the fight for gay-family rights

JASON SMITH/ Plainsman staff
ACLU lawyer William Rubinstein urges open attitudes
and understanding of gay and lesbian rights and issues.
"Ten years ago in the United
States, thinking back to the early
'80s, there wasn't a single
jurisdiction that thought of lesbians
and gay men living together and
protecting their relationships,"
Rubenstein said. "Ten years ago,
there was no such idea as gay-family
law."
"What we're talking about is the
right to love one another," he said.
"Ours is a fight for love, and those
who oppose us are for hatred. Ours
is a fight for justice, and those who
oppose us are for bigotry.
"And ours is really a fight for
affirmation, and those who oppose
us are for destruction."

Alumna humorist
spoofs college years
by Holly Klckilter
Staff Writer
Professional humorist and
Auburn alumna Jeanne Swanner
Robertson visited the Plains Oct. 27
to speak about "Raincoats, Rules
and Rollin' Toomer's Corner" as a
part of the 100 Years of Auburn
Women celebration.
"I wanted people to come away
from the speech with the reminder
that we were lucky to go here, and
it's with us for the rest of our
lives," Robertson said.
In preparing for the speech,
Robertson visited Auburn in
September and met with two
women from every decade from the
'30s to the'80s.
"I laughed and laughed at their
stories. I hope that everyone, from
every era, will recognize a story,"
Robertson said.
She said she was excited to be
asked to give the speech because of
the support she receives all over the
country from Auburn alumni.
"I'll be somewhere in New Jersey
and there will be someone that will
walk up and shake my hand to say
'War Eagle,'" Robertson said.
Robertson said it was an alumnus
that made possible special "gifts"
given out at her presentation -
commemorative roles of toilet
tissue with wrappers bearing the
name of her speech.
Robertson said she called the
CEO of Scott Paper Products, Lee
Griffith, and told his secretary she
wanted 800 rolls of toilet tissue
donated to Auburn. It turned out
Griffith was an Auburn graduate.
"His secretary laughed and said,
'I don't even have to ask him.
Where do you want it sent?'"
Robertson said.
Born in Graham, N.C., Robertson
took seven years to graduate
"without honors" from Auburn
because she was crowned Miss
North Carolina and gave 500
speeches after her sophomore year.
Robertson placed 49th in the
Miss America Pageant and was
voted Miss Congeniality by the
other contestants. Robertson said it
is an honor awarded to the girl
"least likely to win the title of Miss
America."
Programs she put on for different
dorms helped her to win the Miss
North Carolina Pageant, Robertson
said. She got her start singing funny
songs with a ukulele for dorm
meetings. She said she found that
people responded to her because
"they weren't jokes, they were real
life."
But Robertson's uncle provided
her biggest break at an Auburn
Rotary Club program. He told her
Centennial banquet honors

Jeanne S. Robertson
to tell some dorm stories to make
people laugh. They loved it, and
she performed for various civic
clubs for the rest of the year, she
said.
"I was carrying just enough hours
to be a full-time student. There is a
high demand for clean humor with
a message, and I learned I could
make money filling it," Robertson
said.
Robertson speaks 23 days of
every month to groups ranging
from AT&T to the U.S. Women's
Olympic Basketball team about
strategies to develop a sense of
humor. She encourages people to
find humor in everyday situations
and spends her speeches giving
hilarious real-life examples of ways
to handle sticky situations.
In 1989, Robertson was presented
with the NSA's most prestigious
award, "The Cavett," awarded to
the member whose achievements,
Auburn celebrated a century of
women students Oct. 28 at a
luncheon honoring 400 female
alumnae.
Pat Barnes, vice president of
Student Affairs and chairman of the
Celebration Steering Committee,
presided at the luncheon, which
included speeches from Jean
Woodham, class of 1946; Bessie
Mae Holloway, class of 1983; and
Kathryn Cordell Thornton, class of
1974.
Woodham, a renowned sculptor
currently residing in Westfort,
Conn., recalled memories of her
time at Auburn during World War
II.
Cars were rarely seen on campus
because of the hard monetary
conditions caused by the war,
Woodham said.
"There were no parking problems
on the Auburn campus," she said.
Woodham told the large crowd
about Auburn co-eds painting on
their pantyhose because of money
shortages.
Woodham recalled another
humorous instance in which a
mandatory convocation was called
for a "frank talk about sex."
According to Woodham, the film
shown to the co-eds consisted of a
5-year-old girl getting a venereal
disease from eating an apple.
While at Auburn, Woodham
attended a sculpture class in a room
under the music building with a dirt
floor. Returning in 1971 as a
visiting professor, Woodham has
been an advocate for the prospect of
a fine-arts center at Auburn.
"I know this is a tough time and
basic needs must come before
cultural needs, but a great
university (is one that) meets both,"
Woodham said.
"Auburn people don't meet
strangers," said Bessie Mae
Holloway, an educator and member
of Auburn's Board of Trustees.
Holloway said she learned this upon
her arrival at Auburn on a
Greyhound bus in the summer of
1974.
Before enrolling at Auburn,
Holloway earned a master's degree,
and she was employed full time
when she met Mildred Elisor.
Elisor, a professor in Auburn's
School of Education, convinced
Holloway to pursue her doctorate at
the University.
Holloway, who describes her
days at Auburn as "a very colorful
time," attended school on an
International Paper Co. scholarship
and went on to become only the
second woman to sit on the Board
of Trustees.
"It's Auburn people who made
the difference and who caused me
to grow," Holloway said.
Kathryn Thornton, a NASA
astronaut who received a bachelor's
and master's degree from Auburn,
was the afternoon's final guest
speaker.

Madonna
sells SEX
If naughty is nice, then Madonna
should be sainted.
Yet most viewers of her newly
released book, Sex, will not likely
mistake her for Saint Theresa.
The world finally gets to see
every bit of Madonna it didn't see
in past ventures. If you thought
you'd seen it all in her Playboy
spread, get ready for a cold shower.
Beyond the book's shiny metal
cover is a paparazzi of Madonna's
same- and opposite-sex exploits,
with unknowns and also with
famous people such as Naomi
Campbell, Isabella Rossellini and
Vanilla Ice.
The book opens with a "warning
from Mom"-like disclaimer.
Straight from the lady with the
motherly name, Madonna explains
her book
is a fantasy.
Ever
the condom-
tot- I
ing diva
(remember
the
ones she
flashed in
Truth or
Darel),
she warns
the reader
to wrap
that willie
before trying
this at home.
Then the games begin. Madonna
assumes the name "Dita," a character
who writes steamy letters to
her lover from Cannes and New
York, offering him enticing kudos
for their reunion.
The photos match the prose.
Madonna does a lot of touching.
She gets tied up. She hitchhikes
nude by a highway.
She also complains, saying she
is discontented with porno movies
because "everybody is ugly and
faking it and it's just silly." So in
" response, Sex offers an upscale
peep show, complete with creative
graphics, modish lingerie and
* beautiful people. Such elements
almost take the smut out of smut.
Furthermore, at $49.95 a copy, this
' is no usual poor man's manual.
With Sex, Madonna has reached
the end of the sexual avenue. The
" public must wait to see what buttons
she pushes next.
From the bleach-blonde power
'bouse who causes a collective
Catholic heart palpitation with
each successive move, it should be
worth the wait.

Jg^ er Eliot Feld celebrates his company's 19th
anniversary through this tour.
His first performance was with the

Broadway performance in the classic "West Side Story" at
age 16.
Feld has since choreographed more than 75 ballets,

iBaijetiN*
including his debut, "Harbinger," which was performed
at the New York State Theatre 25 years ago. He no
longer performs on stage.
The booking manager for Feld Ballets/NY, Eugene
Lowery, said, "It took two years to get everything in
place so we could get the performance to happen. The
wisdom and foresight of the Opelika Arts Association
and their desire to provide a high quality of all performance
arts for their community (brought the ballet).
"There are a lot of people who will think nothing of
buying a ticket to a basketball game, but find barriers in
buying a ticket to a ballet. It's possible to have as much
fun at a ballet as a basketball game, and possibly as much
opportunity to stand up and cheer," Lowery said.
There will be two different ballets, with the first,
"Family Favorites," Nov. 10. This show caters to those
"who have the mistaken impression that ballet is only
about dying swans or sugarplum fairies," Lowery said.
The second evening's performance will be "Concert
Series Programs," which includes three recent world-premiers.
Lowery said although not everyone will enjoy each
dance, "everyone will find something they like on the
program.
"Going to a ballet is a lot like walking through a nice
garden. You don't have to know the name of every stupid
flower to have a good time," Lowery said.
The Feld Ballets/NY is scheduled to appear Nov. 10 at
7:30 p.m. and Nov. 11 at 8 p.m.

Professor finds artistic niche in photography
by Karen Parr
Assistant Tempo Editor
Doug Olson was drawn in slowly. It took - not
days or months - years.
The West won him over.
Olson is a professor of art at Auburn. He said
he switched from his style as a "modern, hard-edge
painter" about 10 years ago to the "rich
range of values" of black-and-white photography.
Then he took his camera and his newfound art
on the road west.
Now he brings the West to the South in a 20-
piece exhibit held in the Foy Union Gallery
through Nov. 20. The photos are predominately
of areas in the West, but a few regional shots are
included also.
Olson said he became interested in Western
subject matter about 1984, when he went to a
photography workshop in Wyoming.
He said, "It was really the first time I really
had a glimpse of seeing something the West, the
real West, has to offer - landscape-wise, people,
the western scene. I have met people here, right
in this area, (who are) into breaking horses,
(wearing) western gear; and I just find it so interesting.
"Right after that photo workshop in Wyoming,
I even got it in my head that I wanted to do some
mountaineering. Yes, I have climbed peaks out
West in the Tetons," he said.
He has also taken a diverse batch of photos.

black-and-white photography. He said lack of
color engages the viewer's imagination,
"because not everything is spelled out."
Black-and-white photography is the vehicle,
but the bottom line is the land itself. Olson said,
"It's the landscapes, it's the Indian ruins I have
come across, the people, the.climate, the sky; it
is so different from anything I've seen in these
parts and anything in my home state of Wisconsin."

The local color added to the show includes
western-type scenes frAsn Alabama, such as a
shot entitled "Saddle Bronc," which shows a

After speaking with him, it
