Pro.*'oted; Granted

From Page One Dean of Students.

Besides the title · change for Sturch, Dr.

C. Henry Gold was naJDed Southeastern's Academic Dean. This combines duties of the Dean of Behaviorial Studies, Dean of Grad­uate Students, Dean of Business and Industry, and Dean of Liberal Studies.

Dr. Hibbs said that as needed, Assistant Deans would be ap­pointed to serve under Dr . .,Gold.

The Regents today approved one of those, naming Dr. Pat Rob­bins Assistant Dean for Graduate Studies, fill­ing a post left vacant by ret.irement of Collin Bowen.

A number of internal staff changes are being made, Dr. Hibbs said, in part the result of an extensive self-study a • year ago in which Uni­versity faculty and staff took a long look at their

~ good and weak points. "As one example,

Dr. Merle McElr~y has recently been named Director of University Public ·Relations,'' Hibbs said. "She has been handed a multi­tude of duties that have

· pretty well been scat­tered around with no one really in charge.

"We reqret losing her from ·the Elemen­tary Education class­rooms, but she'll · be doinq an excellent job for Southeastern -where she is now." · The 11 faculty pro­motions are the first since 1983, when they were suspended be­cause of unsteady fi­nancial conditions. Pro­motion in rank at Southeastern is a pro­fessional recoqnition, and carries no financial implication$. ,

Promotions from Associate Professor. to Professor went to Dr. Walter Britt, Music, at SOSU since 1976; Dr.

James Wintle, Music . ' 1971; Dr. Merle McElr-roy, 1975~ Dr. Bobby Ray, Industrial Techno­logy Department Chair­man, 1969; Dr. L. Da­vid Norris, History, 1969; Dr. Constance Taylor, Biological Sci­ence, 1970; Dr. Claude Stuteville, Industrial Education, 1965; Dr. Roberta Wescott, Phys­ical Education, 1972; and Dr. Pat ' Robbins, 1976.

Other promotions were Dr. Robert A. Henderson, English , from Assistant to Associate · professor, 1979; and Mrs. J ea­nette Engles, Educa­tion and Psychology, 1967 temporary, 1981 regular faculty.

Tenure was granted to 13 of the faculty. Hibbs noted .some have been on ,..the approved list for - four or five years, but had to wait for retirements, resig­nations and employ­ment of new faculty before they could be recommended to the

'

Regents. With appro-val, Southeastern will have a 60.9 per cent tenured faculty.

The list includes Dr. Britt; Dr. Robbins; Dr. Kenne.th R. ~ uhb~rn, Chairman of the Elec­tronics Technology De­paxtment ud member of the SOSU faculty since 1978; Dr. Joe Wiley, Chairman of the Computer Science de­partment, 1974; Dr. Dennis Letts, Enqlish, 1976; Dr . . James Cun· ninqham, Safety and Safety Education; Dr. Sam Biqham, Chair· man of the Biological Sciences Department, 1979; · Jorge Morales, Lanquaqes, 1969; John T. Smith, Metals Tech­nology, · 1976; W. 0. Hawkins, Industrial Technology, 1974; Pab­lo Pedraza, Music, 1976; Doris M. An­drews, Enqlish, 1973; Howard V. Starks, Enq­lish, 1968.

made about them. Sprays have been made to kill them. Despite all of this, the small crea­tures, known commonly as lfugs, still bother us.

They've been around forever and even the harmless ones can be somewhat irritating.

Williard had his Tats, Moses his froqs, I even saw a I apanese movie about a giant moth once. We've all had to deal with some small inconvenience through­out history. -

So why should I spend time writing about a few of these .bugs on our campus? Well, the magnitude of SOSU' s bug story is beyond everything that has gone before in the history of bugs. Some­thing's brewing in Bug­land, Durant and I need to inform you guys so that you can deal with it

It all started last week when I wore a yellow Hawaiin shirt to class. I couldn't go outside without thirty dozen bees trying to make nectar out of me. I mean those bees wouldn't leave me alone. I had to go home and change into some­thing dark just to make it to class.

The next part of the stor~ didn't really add up at first. It seems that all the North Hall coach roaches rebelled and decided to not race anymore. No one really knew why, but the

e

darned roaches just quit showing up for the races.

Now that disappoin­ted a lot of the new North Hall tenants since it cut down on 2 major sources of enter­tainment as well as funds for the Pari-Mu-

Suddenly one niqht last week these big mosquitos disappeared also. Something was definitely ,up.

At first everyone sus­pected that the Okla­homa City power struc­ture had banned roach racing down here so they could have a major roach track. However, the whole problem was that the coach roaches just decided they didn't want to race anymore. And no one knew why.

Next to disappear were the mosquitos out of the Sheraton. These giant mosquitos who were often confused with sparrows,

"Why, I was awaken one night," one obser­

-vor in the Sheraton noted, "by my room­mate. He, was floating around in the air, like he was in some kind of trance. I was worried so I flipped the light on, and luckily for him I did, because I scared them giant mosquitos away.''

joyed watching our football -team thrash OBU, but everytime we'd make a good tac­kle I'd feel the impact of the hit myself.

Curious as to why I could feel the intense

. hitting all the way up in the stlnds, I discovered that although Southeas­tern's defense was do­ing great, they weren't the sourc~ of my feeling like I was being hit. It was Kamakazi Crickets flying down and crash­ing into football fans.

There were millions of these crazy crickets and three or four fans were injured during the game by the flying bugs. ,

After the game I wondered to myself, "Why, all the extra bug activity?'' Certainly there was an underly­ing reason for all this unusual behavior. The more I thought about it

· the more it bugged me.

ace After a couple of

hours I couldn't take it anymore. I looked in the Yellow Pages under Bugoligists. I found -one that lived near Lake Texoma under Roose­velt Bridge. His name was Dr. T. R. Iantula and after talking with him he promised to meet me here at the campus.

He arrived in an old beat-up green pickup with a sloqan painted across the side, "For all your insect ills call Dr. T. R. Iantula. We drove around the cam­pus, looking for the · places where bugs should abide.

After a couple of hours and no success Dr . Iantula took out a device and plugged it into the cigarette ligh­ter. It started to make a chirping sound like a cricket. Within a matter of minutes several cric­kets surrounded the piclcup.

As soon as they _saw the pic.lrup, they turned and went the other way. I became discou­raged, but this didn't

faze the . doctor . He drove aft~r the crickets. I followed the doc until we dame to the football fielc!. He then we.nt in under the bl-rachers. I didn"' t have -a strong desir~ to follow him so I waited. Hours later he emerged with a worried look and some wet sog­gy clothes.

"Well?" was about all1 could manage.

Things look like they are ripe for bug bat­tle," he stated. "There are some angry cric­kets , m·osquitos, and cock roaches down there, and they are prepared to~ to war .''

"Who with?" I in­quired. "They are rea­dy to fight the rest of the fly'ing insects around here, because the -'bees are too gree­dy,"he responded.

"Yeah/ ' he contin­ued, ''your yellow shirt is just an example ."

"You mean the bees -like the - shirt so the other insects are je.a­lous ." I asked thinlting how nice it was I had helped create the bat­tle.

·"No, not at all," he laughed . "The b .. • didn't like your shirt and were · b yinq to chase vou ofi .'' ''Oh,' ' I respoact.d,

as my ego deflated another sixty pounds.

.. Anyway, the be•s are trying- to tell all the other insects w~t to do," he explained.

" What do you mean, " I inquired of Doctor T. R. lantula .

" Well the bees are trying to charg-e the cock roaches eztra for living in North Hall . You know, try and re­duce the profits of their racing," he added .

' ' So will this be a biq bug battle?" I asked curiously_ " Yes, it may reach catastrophic propor­tions . The bees are even wanting- to have a room inspection for all the other bugs. Now ain•t that an outrag-e?"

''It most certainly is , " I said riqht before my alarm woke me up. As I got out of bed I stepped on a cricket. Man, I've got to quit studying so hard .

The Apratheid sys-tem of South Africa is so inherently evil it is hard to believe that someone who caUs him­self a " moral" leader could actively suppori. the government that practices this system.

Falwell has said that he would be happy to see America' s free edu­cational system de­stroyed so that children could get a "Christian" education. He, how­ever, fails to mention how the poor will be able to afford private schools .

Falwell says that he is against ceneorsbip, but: be continues caDiDq for the censorship bf books and other forma of literature. He seem• to be sayila.g that every­thing that he finds dia­tasteful should t. ceu­!iored, while everytbiDC) that conforms to his narrow view should be free of censorship.

Another point in the letter that calls for com­·ment, since it has to do with the subject I had already picked to write on this week, is his comments on the way the press h911dled Jerry Falwell's comments on South Africa and 0..- · mond Tutu.

The only thing the preu did wu report what Falwell said. They reported some -prominent people's re-actions to Falwell's comment. No matter how much Falwell tries to separate himself from that comment and try to shift the blame for the criticism he is

veys what Falwell really believes.

It is not surprising to hear Falwell call Reve­rend Tutu a phony and support the govern­ment of South Africa when we realize that his Thomas Road Bap­tist Church was built on the principles of racism and blacks were not allowed in the congre­gation until the pres­sure on Falwell was so great that not letting blacks in would have crippled his qyowing ministry.

Falwell's policy on South Africa contra­dicts it•elf. One minute Falwell condemns the policy of Apartheid and

He not only believes that evolution is wtong, but he believes that is evil. He ignores the overwhelming scientific evidence for the fact of evolution and supports the views of the so­called "scientific" cre­ationist.

'Hatchet 'Squad' Shut Down· OBU Offense

~ava es o · ate The Savages domina­

ted 18th ranked Oua­chita Baptist in front of the parents day crowd Saturday and ran off with a 48-14 victory.

The Savage defense, better known as ''the hatchet squad,'' totally embarrassed the num­ber one NAIA offensive team. Oauchita came into the qame averag­ing 300 yards rushing and 200 yards passing · per game. The tiger tailback, Dwayne Gra· ves, averaqed almost 10 yards per carry. That was cominq in, going out it had diminished somewhat.

could have been worse was if we would have played the fourth quar­ter longer. Maybe then, though, the old qive up attitude might not have been so evident in the eyes of on-lookers.

"The hit of the game would have to be given to Tony Stevenson when he hit the Ouachi­ta tailback on the • screen pass and stop-ped him on the spot.

The 'hatchet squad' held the tiqers to a measley 53 yards rush­inq, while holdinq the quick footed tailback to less than two yards per carry.

On the day the tigers had 296 yards total offense . on 72 plays. Had the Savaqes not scored, .,0 quipkly all of the tim• allowinq Oua­chita to haft more car·

"The defensive line also was outstanc#ng. Stevenson, Hampton, Dabney, Thompson, McDaniel, Grey, Cohea and Dona all did an excellent job. They have taken some pres· sure off the secondary. And enabled them to get back in the pass zones more easily,'' said Lounsbury.

The Savages have picked ·off 13 passes already this ' season. The, opponents are hit­tinq only 44 percent of their passes.

riea, ~ the 'hatchet squad' · miqht · have done ·even better. ·

The 'hatchet equad' continued to hold their dominance in the firJrt and foutth quarters u they haft yet to 9ive up a score in the opentnq or clostqg period•.

The Savaqe o.H.nse or should one caJJ tlaem "war p•tty" appe·n to be a little inconsistent right now but has had some sbonq moments.

Saturday niqht wu party time for the ''war party' as they rolled up 421 yards in 65 . plays while scorinq an im­pressive 48 peints.

One miqht say the score could hav* been worse, but if you think about 1t, at one time there· were quite a few worried fans when the score was 21-14. The only way the score

H opponents cannot run or pea aqainst us, then what are they to do? ~ . . .

Hope fo,: mistakes is the only thinq left. So far mistakes haven't came close enouqh to the ·gQal. After · the of­fense qeta · polished, mistakes qo down. The Savages are tough now and can only get tough­er.

The Savaqes travel to Hardinq University Sa­turday to PlaY the num­ber two ranked ru•hinq offense in the nation with an averaqe of 235 yards a game. The de­fense is ranked 5th in the nation aqainst the rush qivinq up 35 yards per game.

Harding is coming into the game foJlowinq a 44-16 win and proba­bly will receift some top 20 votes this week.

·This will be to our advantage.

At this time not many coaches are takinq the SaYaqea .-riously, but if tlle SaTagas were to thruh 0 two top rated opponents, they would qet some respect.

IDOk for the Savaqes to rec1ive sa"'• top 20 votes after the Harding game.

While Hard.inq is a sbong opponent, they are just wh&t the 'war party' wants: a sbonq team against the run. On the same hand the Hardinq olfenn is a strong ruiming teem, which is the 'hatchet squad's' stronq point. If Harding then cho oaes to pass we will have them where we want them. Throwing into the Savage secondary could be dan,qeroua to their record. '

The game should be close early, but once aqain the Savages should take over in the final period, . or better still, the Savaqes' per iod.

Sidney Harper had two intercepticm• and two outstandinq re­hll!ns to •t up S.Ya:;e touchdowns.

'"Sidney played a fine game, he had a couple of key intercep­tiou," seid Lounel.ary.

The to1urna•e~t is mainly used for acout­ing. It al~ gives the players a chance to play toqether aad the coa­chea an opportunity to

When Sidney arrived at SOSU he was hurt and had to miss spring ball last year. This sea­son he has moved from free safety to strong safety and has had to make some adjust­ments.

tham for that, ~ they do their job mine becomes easier. Coach Jones has also done a fine job of calling defenses.

My personal goals would have to be being mentally and phy-;ically ready to play every r~ame. Footbail is not just physical; a player must think on every down,'' commented Harper. ~

Regarding team goals he stated, "I have

. a lot ·of team goals, but I keep them to myself. ·I keep them·inside of me, and because I want

those goals to become a reality so bad, I simply work harder every day to make that possible . In trying to work harder every day and constant­ly trying to improve, I hope that I can elimi­nate some of the mis­takes that I have made 0 I , I m prevtous games .

Sidney enjoys play­ing football because of the fellowship that is
