Students seen as Security's problemby Bobbie Doughtie

Last Tuesday night, the EastLounge was the scene of a studentforum entitled, Security: Are WeSecure? Present was the Directorof Security, Colonel Max McQuownand the Dean of Students, Bo Scar-borough, as well as Peter Rooney,Vice-President of the SGA. Theforum, which lasted approximatelyan hour, addressed several topicsconcerning security and securityproblems on the Southwestern cam-pus, and suggested various meas-ures to improve the security of thestudents.

One result of the forum will bea re-examination of the role andduty of the dorm attendant. Com-plaints have been received andverified that the attendants do notpay sufficient attention to whoenters the dorms. This has ledto several incidents involving so-licitation and trespassing in somedorms.

Peter Rooney suggested that thedorm attendants be more carefullyand specifically informed of theirduties, perhaps including a defini-tive set of written rules and pro-cedures. Col. McQuown agreed,calling the idea a good one, andadding, "They're not getting paidto watch TV."

Another possibility explored wasthat of increasing the lighting oncampus. This, it was felt, would

increase the general security of thecampus. The Colonel noted thatSouthwestern was in a fringe areaof Midtown, and the Dean remind-ed the forum group that the rest ofMemphis was not on the HonorSystem.

Students were urged to follow afew common sense measures tohelp ensure their safety, especiallyat night. They are warned againstgoing to Overton Park or the Back40 at night, alone or in pairs. Sim-ilarly, they should ask the securityguards for escorts when crossingcampus at night. These geographi-cal problems need to be stressedduring orientation for new students."Most of the problems aroundhere,' asserted the Colonel, refer-ring to such incidents as studentspropping open doors or drenchingsecurity guards with buckets ofwater, "are student caused."

The idea of opening up the base-ment of the library as a 24-hourstudy center was raised and metwith unanimous approval by thegroup. It was recognized that open-ing the basement, including thecomputer area, on a 24-hour basiswould cause some problems, suchas students wandering into othersections of the Library. A work-study student could possibly be as-signed to regulate entrance into thestudy area, if sufficient money was

available.To make it easier to contact Se-

curity in an emergency or to ar-range for an escort, the possibilityof installing direct access tele-phones in all the dorms and aca-demic buildings was discussed.Pl ans exist for the installationof the telephones, but the programshave been repeatedly cut from thebudget.

According to Dean Scarborough,"We are a year or two from puttingin a system that might mean aphone in every room. That's why itkeeps getting slashed from thebudget." A new system would meanan initial cost of $3,000.00 and$179.00 per month after the initialinstallation. The college has simplymade the decision to wait and putin an entire system at the sametime. The direct-access phonewould be of the non-dial, pick-up-and-talk kind.

Although he steadfastly refusedto discuss anything but "securityproblems and measures" that af-fected the campus at large, ColonelMcQuown did comment on thecharges that the guards are tooslow in responding to calls frompeople who are locked out of theirrooms, and on the rumor that theguards have a quota of tickets tofill before they get paid.

In addition to being appointed asresident quartet at Yale and at theDistrict of Columbia's AmericanUniversity, the ensemble has wonacclaim for its studio work as well.The fab four has received severalGrammy nominations for its re-cordings on the prestigious DeutscheGramaphon and CBS Masterworkslabels.

The quartet's playing was de-scribed by Paul Hume of TheWashington Post as having "allthe marks of greatness . . . awe-some control and, where appropri-ate, a searing passion." The NewYork Times' Donald Henahan char-acterized the group as "a remark-ably well-balanced foursome inevery way."

The Tokyo String Quartet per-forms on four matched Amati in-struments loaned to them by Cor-coran Gallery of Art in Washing-ton, D.C. The instruments werecreated by the the Italian NicoliAmati between 1656 and 1677.

Because of space constraints, thestring quartet's 8 p.m. March 17concert in Hardie Auditorium willbe limited initially to the South-western community. Should therebe seats remaining for the per-formance, however, the publicwill be notified and tickets madeavailable on a first-come basis.

Fickle fateAn injustice has occurred. People are suffering, and I feel I can no

longer be at peace with myself until I raise a cry through the length and

breadth of the land against the heinous crime being perpetrated against

the innocent underclassmen of this campus.Juniors are forced to register after freshmen. Juniors who, after the

completion of three long years of arduous study, have finally earned the

right to register for Third Term early, are now finding themselves reg-

istering last. Sophomores, who thought their lot would improve this year,are now faced with the possible prospect of two more years of useless

Third Term classes that do little toward the fulfillment of their degreerequirements.

Why has so unspeakable an act been committed? So freshmen can geta fair chance to register for the classes that they want. Freshmen don't

need a fair chance - juniors and sophomores do. How many freshmen

have declared a major? They have so few hours now that any classes

they may end up with are sure to fulfill some degree requirement.On the other hand, juniors and sophomores, but especially juniors,

are getting shafted. They've waited patiently for three years to get their

first choice of classes, and now they may not.When asked why registration has been changed, the Registrar ex-

plained that it is just an "experiment." Experiment! Reaganomics isjust an "experiment." The splitting of the atom was just an "experi-ment."

When asked why this little "experiment" was being conducted at

the expense of the junior class the Registrar explained that if it wasn'tthis year's junior class to suffer, it would be next year's. Why does any-one have to suffer? We are not paying large sums of money to attendSouthwestern just so we can suffer.

This method of registration is fine if students are just taking majorrequirements, but such is not the case. Many juniors already have manyof their major requirements and are now trying to fulfill their degreerequirements with interesting courses in which they can do well. Shouldthese classes be closed out, juniors will be forced to either sign up for a

class that they do not want to take or have to worry about taking a de-gree requirement their senior year. Just one more thing to worry aboutalong with senior paper and comps.

Personally, I feel the only way juniors, sophomores, and freshmencan receive an equal chance to get into courses of their first choice is toregister by class order. At least this way, students know that theirchoices will improve every year. When all underclassmen register ran-domly, there is always the possibility that some students will get stuckregistering last every year. It doesn't seem fair to leave such a highlypriced education up to the luck of the draw.

Also, I fail to see why the Third Term Committee, which devisedthis new registration method, did not take into consideration some of theconsequences discussed above. Many new classes have been created tobe sure, but if the Third Term Committee is really concerned with theavailability of courses to freshmen, then the members should have cre-ated courses specifically for them.

In this situation, I can't help but wonder why the student representa-tives to the Committee did not see the problems so obvious to inany oftheir fellow students. If they did consider these difficulties, did they ex-press them to the other Committee members? And if they did, whywere they not acted upon? Maybe they get to register early.

Box 724To the Editor!

Today I saw a petition ,about thelack of parking space. It suggestedthat those dad-blasted constructionworkers should park in the gymlot and save space around the the-atre and student center for payingstudents. I couldn't agree more!Who do these people think theyare? They come to our lovely cam-pus with their big dirty machinesand then use up our parking space.Why, one of them even spoke to meonce!

Well, if we have to put up withthem, let's make them pay! Thegym isn't far enough away, anda student might want the samespace. Let's make them park atthe Paris Adult Theatre. I bet theyall know where is is anyway, andthere are always spaces there. Thewalk should do them good, too, bygum! Maybe after we do this, wecan park in peace.

He is famous forsuch wise statements as, "Imagina-tion is more important than knowl-edge," and "The majority of the

stupid is invincible and guaranteedfor all time."

Have you ever noticed how some-one always comes up with a namefor the year past. "Year of thechild," "Year of world peace" andeven those really greedy peoplewho think that they can name awhole decade: "The ME decade."This is fine but really honestly,do you care what 1982 was? Mostof us, myself included, have ahard enough time with the yearwe're in - WHO CARES ABOUTLAST YEAR!

Well, with this in mind and rath-er than waiting until next Januaryfor those people to name 1983, Iintend to beat them to the punch.I hereby declare that 1983 is THEYEAR OF LIVING DANGEROUS-LY - AT SAM.

Now for those of you who live inStewart and University, you'reautomatically included in this year.

CPS

However, those of you who liveelsewhere will have to try just alittle harder.

First, let me explain the reason-ing behind this year. Assuredly,most of you would agree with mewhen I say that life at SAM isnice; however, one might notice,as I have, that the pace of life isa little slow. Some, I'm sure, en-joy this. You go to classes, the puba couple of nights a week and thesocial commission film on Wednes-days. Is this enough for you?On the other hand, if you crave

something more, the following sug-gestions offer excellent ways tolive "on the edge" without everleaving our campus.

I would like to emphasize thatthese are only suggestions, andshould you carry one of them out,I am in no way responsible foryour actions.

Attempt to "check-out" the en-tire fourth floor of the library. Thisis especially dangerous at 4:29 p.m.on Saturday afternoons.

Scale the outside of HalliburtonTower and smile insanely at thePresident until you have his atten-tion. Most likely it will be his un-divided attention and if you pre-tend to jump off that would be agood follow through - as a scaretechnique.

Don't ask "what is it" at the re-fectory. This is probably the great-est test of your will power. Besides,asking what it is reveals the dangerto your well-being and spoils thesense of adventure you have of notknowing.

Change the channel during "Gen-eral Hospital"' in the Townsendsocial room.Go to the pool, preferably when

it's full of people and water,scream: "I've got body lice!" thenjump in.

Present Bo with a copy of thearchitects drawings for the addi-tion to your dorm room. Bringsome samples of the wallpaper andcloth swatches from the interiordecorator just to be sure he ap-proves.

Create "campus art" by hiringa landscaping firm to rearrangeOak Alley into a diamond or adollar sign.

Before the unveiling of the statueof Dr. Diehl replace it with aSHONEY'S Big Boy.

During final exams play your"Donny and Marie Live" albumas loud as you can into the quad.One note, don't use speakers youvalue.

An idea that has a many-facetedapproach is the Southwestern in-stitution - whiteball. Yes, take ajackhammer to the whiteball coufbtBetter yet, just stand in the middleof it while there's a tournamentgoing on.

If you don't want to declare yourmajor, hold the assistant registrarhostage until they okay your reg-istration without a declaration.

Create a very complicated com-puter program with a loop thattakes one hundred and eight hoursto execute. Run it continually thelast two weeks of the term. I canthink of nothing more dangerous.Computer people with over dueprograms can be violent.

Stand up at commencement andannounce your opinion that to bePresbyterian is to be un-American.This is totally rude, tasteless andtacky. However, it would take themost guts and would definitely bedangerous.

And last, but by no means least,there's the casual stroll around theouter reaches of the campus at tenp.m. or so. The better the runneryou are the less enjoyable thisbecomes.Just think, everyday will be dif-

ferent. You'll never know what'sgoing to happen next. The campuswill be charged with excitementand things will move at a breath-less pace.

This would not only be for thestudents, however. I have thoughtthis out carefully and have realizedthat the school can use this as aselling point to perspectives. Whatnormal student wouldn't want toapply here? The Admissions Officewould love it - more applications.The trustees would love it - morestudents - more growth - moregrants. All they'd have to do ischange the slogan to "OUR EX-CITMENT IS IN A LEAGUE BYITSELF."

There is one draw back I mustadmit. Those prone to heart prob-lems could not attend. I can seethe Trustees doing everything pos-sible for handicap students, butthey'd never agree to pacemakersin the infirmary.

who are wise and of good will." Ifind his use of the word "existed"especially exciting. On Monday the14th I will be celebrating Mr. Ein-stein's birthday in all directions. Iurge each of you to join (Albertand me).Secondly, I am concerned with

the constant ignorance among peo-ple concerning bestiality. I havefound a cartoon which I feel couldenlighten many of us as to thenature of this preference. I willpost copies of this cartoon at vari-ous places around the campus. Isuggest you read it.

I fail to understand the purposeof the photos I referred to above.I see no reason for the students tobe subjected to such pompous dis-plays as these. I suggest to Mr.Daughdrill that if he enjoys thesephotos, he should keep them athome. If he does not enjoy them,he should not inflict them upon thestudents.

In 1945, Ron McKernan was born,He lived 27 years. He was known tothe musical world as 'Pig Pen. Hewas called "the best male bluessinger ever produced in San Fran-cisco." He died in February of 1973.He has been gone for ten years. WeDead fans miss him. However, withthe existence of the Life/DeathEquation, it is possible to alleviatemuch of the sorrow which accompa-nies the death of a friend.

'Lords'Pat Conroy (author of The Great

Santini) set his most recent novel,The Lords of Discipline, at the fic-titious Carolina Military Institute,which was modeled closely afterThe Citadel, his alma mater. Ipicked up the book this summer(it had been a gift to an olderbrother who graduated from TheCitadel) and found it to be fast-paced and exciting, if not overlyviolent and vulgar in places.

The characters were all well-drawn and interesting, however,and Conroy commendably capturedthe flavor of Charleston, SouthCarolina, the location of both thecreated Institute and The Citadel.

The novel is, in a sense, a mys-tery. The central character, WillMaclain, begins to uncover infor-mation concerning a secret, self-perpetuating organization of stu-dents on campus which hideouslytortures all "knobs" (freshmen)who are deemed unworthy of grad-uating and wearing the school ring.This group, supposedly only a facetof campus mythology, becomes histarget of interest when the first

The Christopher Fry work is inverse and based on the famousMatron of Ephesus story (original-ly told by Petronius) about a piouswidow and her maid who mournthe death of the widow's recentlydeceased husband. The setting isthe tomb where the husband's bodylies waiting interment.

In this version of the story, themaid is not quite so pious and thewidow becomes less so as timepasses. Both women begin to suf-fer from a self-imposed hungerstrike. What's more, there aresigns they are unhappy over theloss of male company. Not until ahandsome guard appears, however,does the widow begin regrettingher noble experiment in withdraw-ing from the world.

Unfortunately, the screen adapta-tion of the novel (not done by Con-roy) is pathetic. The charactersare so poorly developed that theynever become interesting. Thesolving of the mystery is nothandled as cleverly as it was inthe book, and the ultimate climaxis hinted at earlier, whereas aswritten it came as quite a shock.

The Citadel refused (for ratherobvious reasons) to have the filmshot on its grounds. The scenes atthe school were filmed on loca-tion in England. Only one streetcorner in Charleston was shot, andmost of the book takes place invarious locales around the city;therefore, there is very little atmos-phere to the movie.

I was disappointed to find someof the most exciting scenes deletedor condensed, perhaps for lack ofsufficient budget. Characters whodie in the novel remain alive inthe picture. And the ending, flat

-- World news notesBONN .... On Sunday, West Germans went to the polls to elect a

new Chancellor and government. They handed the Social Democrats,headed by Hans Jochen Vogel, a stunning defeat, the worst in manyyears. The Christian Democrats of Helmut Kohl came out of the electiononly 5 seats short of an absolute majority in the Bundestag. The FreeDemocrats, usually close allies of the Christian Democrats, won 34 seatsand will form a coalition with the Christians. The supposedly anti-partyGreen Party won its first representation in the Parliament, with 27seats. Led by Petra Kelly, they have promised to give away militarysecrets and to use every effort to stop deployment of Pershing II andTomahawk missiles in Germany. The Soviet Union had lobbied intenselyduring the election campaign for the Social Democrat Party, which alsoopposed deployment of the missiles. Kohl's party will press ahead withthe deployment while at the same time calling for negotiations betweenthe U.S. and the Soviet Union to reduce their nuclear arsenals.

CANBERRA . . ... For only the second time since 1949, a Labor

Government is in power in Australia. The eight-year old government ofConservative Prime Minister Malcolm Fraser was ousted by the Labor

P Party of Robert Hawke, formerly a high ranking union leader, who be-came leader of the opposition only a month ago. Fraser had alienatedmany during the campaign, including the banks, some of his most im-portant supporters. Labor has promised to increase government spend-ing to provide jobs, to enhance welfare benefits, and to cut taxes.

MANAGUA . . . . Officials of the Sandinista regime are reportedlyangry at Pope John Paul II for refusing to sanction their governmentand for failing to mention in his speeches the 375 Sandinistas who havebeen killed by anti-communist forces operating largely from the Hon-duras. The Pope made it clear that Catholicism and authoritarianismcannot exist side by side. His visit to Nicaragua is seen as underminingcommunist attempts to link the Church with the revolution that over-threw Somoza, the former rightwing dictator of the country.

WASHINGTON . . . . The Pentagon has unveiled a costly new planto revitalize the near-vanished American air defense system. The plancalls for the purchase of 150 F-15 Eagle fighters, and 12 E-3 SentryAWACS aircraft to replace very old F-106 Delta Dart interceptors nowin service. New radars would be built to replace the 1950's vintage DEWline in the North. Total cost of the program would be almost $8 billion.Currently, air defense of the continental United States depends uponabout 150 F-106 interceptors with no 'look-down, shoot-down' capability,which is very important in order to operate successfully against lowflying Soviet bombers like the Backfire or the new Blackjack.

The actors - largely unknown -contribute little, if anything, tosalvaging the picture. I was notsurprised to find a dialect coachlisted in the credits; the Southernaccents are as thick as molassesin January and as fake as a Mal-tese falcon. Even David Kieth,whose performance I enjoyed inAn Officer and a Gentleman, isineffective as Will and appears un-derstandably uncomfortablethroughout.

Perhaps the flimsiness of TheLords of Discipline will put a stopto the trend to make movies setat military academies. This pictureis even worse (if that is imagin-able) than Taps, which I abandonedin midstream.

Tracksters leap into seasonby Bert Barnes .

Last spring, the Southwesternmen's track team finished a veryclose third (only two points out ofsecond place) in the season-endingCollege Athletic Conference SpringSports Festival, to close out themost successful SAM track sea-son in several years. With almostall of the key performers backthis year, the Lynx enter this sea-son with high hopes and great ex-pectations.

Leading the returners is the con-ference MVP Ricky Preston, whowas the winner of the 100m andtriple jump events in the CACmeet, along with being a memberof the winning 400m and 10,000mrelay teams.

According to Coach Mike Clary,

the sprints will be the events inwhich the Lynx possess the mostdepth. Besides Preston, the return-ing sprinters include juniors Rob-ert Anderson, Travis Johnson andTerrell Mason and sophomoresJef Foropoulous and Dalton Heg-gie. Also joining the team is sopho-more Donald Duggan, a transferfrom Georgia Tech.

Duggan will also join seniorBrian Sanders and sophomoreMitchum Warren to give SAM astrong trio of hurdlers.

The distance men will be led bysenior Steve Wills, who missed thecross country season due to in-jury. Wills will be joined by otherharriers, including Mike Jone s,Joel Lyons, and Mike Sharp. Sen-ior Blake Taylor and freshman

Soccer becomesVarsity for ladies

by Bert BarnesThis year, a new sport has joined

the ranks of varsity athletics atSouthwestern: women's soccer. Theteam will be the first in the city ofMemphis to compete on the var-sity collegiate level, and only thesecond currently in existence inthe state of Tennessee, the otherbeing fielded by the hated SewaneeTigers.

Despite the fact that this will betheir first season, Coach CherylBuckmeier is optimistic about theteam's chances to make a success-ful showing. "The girls are all realenthusiastic," says Coach Buck-meier. "If they can keep it up, Ithink we'll have a good year."

Enthusiasm aside, about half ofthe 24 girls on the roster haveplayed soccer before, and most ofthe team members have partici-pated in other sports here at SAM.

Coach Buckmeier expects most ofthe scoring to come from the twowings: Susan McLean, a sopho-more, and freshman Sally Johnson.Also expected to contribute is fresh.man Kathleen O'Toole, who will beplaying center-halfback. JoiningMcLean and Johnson on the frontline are Sandra Buenahora andMartha Saavedra.

Emily McCreary was expected tofill the goalie position, but she iscurrently recovering from a kneeinjury. Until she returns, that po-sition will be handled by sopho-more Alice Quargnenti, who is alsoa standout volleyball and basket-ball player.

Also expected to start for theLynx are senior Karen Kellow andsophomores Renee Haynes, HelenReinecke, Susan Shepard and Jean

r

Willard.The first game for the girls is

this Sunday when they will scrim-mage Andy's Angels, a local wom-en's soccer team of which CoachBuckmeier is a member. The gamebegins at 1:30 and will be playedhere at Fargason Field.

Also on the schedule are datesagainst Vanderbilt and UT-Knox-ville, where the sport is played onthe club level. The girls will alsobe participating in tournaments atSewanee and at the University ofAlabama.

Mark Westfall are slated to com-pete in the middle distance events.

The Lynx are hoping also to showimprovement in the field events,which have traditionally been aweak area. Dalton Heggie will putthe shot, while Wes Hassen, JimmyBryant and Mike Palazolla flingthe discus.

Senior David Landrum will com-pete in the high jump and the jave-lin throw, while junior Ricky Leg-gett h a n dl e s the pole vaultingchores. The sprinters will probablyall also participate in the long and

students would take their keyswith them," he said, "we wouldn'thave a problem. Every time wetake a guard off his patrol routeto let someone into a room be-cause they didn't take their keys,we are wasting that man's time."

He emphatically denied the exist-ence of a ticket quota system. "Se-curity gets no money at all fortraffic tickets. Our job would be ahell of a lot easier if everyoneparked where they are supposedto."

At the conclusion of the forum,the Colonel stressed that the Se-curity Force needs the help of thestudent body to function effectively."If everyone does their jobs, thenwe can do our job. We're in prettygood shape, but we do need helpfrom the students."
