Black hiring objectives difficult to meet here Recruitment efforts up, but applications are few By DONNA SIZEMORE

James Madison University is having a difficult time meeting numerical objectives for the hiring of black faculty, according to a university ad- ministrator.

"Last year we received over 700 applications for vacant positions," said Dr. John Mundy, director pf adminstrative affairs at JMU, "and zero from blacks."

"Obviously, it's difficult to meet objectives if you don't get applications from blacks," he added. "In spite of the fact you make an effort to recruit blacks, they don't apply."

Currently, only five members of JMU's approximately 400-member faculty are black.

By federal law, JMU should hire nine additional black faculty members by 1963. So far, the university has hired only one, Mundy said.

NUMERICAL OBJECTIVES for both faculty and students were set as a result of guidelines set by the Department of Health, Education and Welfare

MORE minority faculty and students are needed to balance the quality of life at JMU, according to Jackie Walker, one of five black faculty members here.

Small black community fails to attract faculty By DONNA SIZEMORE

The isolated location of James Madison Univer- sity's and Harrisonburg's small minority population are the major deterrents to the recruitment of black faculty.

This is the consensus of the five black faculty members recently interviewed by The Breeie.

"JMU has a peculiar problem with regard to minorities," according to Jackie Walker, a JMU history professor. "In areas where there is a larger black community, a black person doesn't feel quite as alienated," she said, adding that little opportunity exists for social life for blacks here.

Harrisonburg's black population is less than five percent, according to a dry planning spokesperson.

Social activity in this area revolves around family and church, Walker said, calling Harrisonburg a "closed and traditional kind of community." She believes the small black population is the primary reason minority faculty do not come to JMU.

"We need more minority students to give a balance to the quality of life here," Walker said. And more

Landlords Some JMU commuters criticize maintenance on leased housing

By LOUIS EACHO "The idea of moving into a

house near campus was really exciting, but the problems I have had this year with my landlord have dampened my feelings."

This statement is representative erf many students here who are dissatisfied with landlords who either refuse or are reluctant to provide necessary maintenance on leased housing.

Landlord-tenant surveys being compiled by the Commuter Stude.nl <^jMK-. mittee sho«rrd -hfir^Wule many students here are satisfied with their landlords, some students are critical of the response they have received after notifying landlords of problems.

One person in particular has received severe and consistent criticism, according to Chairman Jeff French. Several students who were promised anonymity by the survey allege that WjUiam Trout. a Harrisowxirg businessman, has refused to make necessary repairs at two houses he rents on South Mason and South Main streets.

TROUT OWNS the Harrisonburg Holiday Inn as well as the Train Station and Palmer House resturants.

Residents at both houses said they complained to Trout about several problems to no avail. "I have never even had a chance to meet the man," one South Mason Street resident said.

A sewer pipe in the backyard of the house at South Main Street burst in October and Trout failed to fix it until February, according to residents.

Eventually, both the Harrisonburg Health Department and reporter Dave Gordon of WHSV—TV were called, according to residents. The sewage was cleaned up five days after Trout received a warning from a health official, Gordon said.

Trout declined to speak directly to The Breeze but his personal secretary denied this allegation and said plumbers were sent to fix the sewage pipe as soon as the weather permitted. "Anything they talked to us about, we tried to fix," she said.

THE LACK OF insulation and the need to use great amounts of heating oil has been a major complaint of residents of both houses who paid roughly $200 a month per house this winter in heating bills.

"We might as well be throwing buckets of oil out the window," commented one resident who said the furnace is at least 75 percent inef- ficient. With cracks in the ceiling and hardly any attic insulation, it was "hard not to freeze," she said.

Trout's house on South Main has no insulation whatsoever in the basement and uses a much greater amount of heating oil than what the residents said his employees

led them to believe. "We were told that we

would need only one tank of oil this winter, but we ended up using nearly three," one resident said.

TROUT'S representatives said they only "showed the girls past oil bills and cannot be responsible" for the amount the residents used this winter.

Both groups of students in the two houses do not meet a 1978 Harrisonburg zoining ordinance for a singl%-famUy dwelling. While only four


In second election

Sulik wins treasurer's post By DONNA SIZEMORE.

Bill Sulik is new treasurer of the Student Government Association after two elections and numerous debate by the SGA elections committee.

Sulik defeated Watkins with 56 percent of the vote on the third election day held by the SGA this month. Last week the SGA held a run-off election for the office of president, and due to disputed votes from JMU students studying in London, the election's committee decided to hold a re-vote for the office of treasurer.

In the first election in which 2,656 students voted, Jim Watkins narrowly edged Sulik by six votes. Watkins received 44 percent of the vote in Wednesday's election in which 1,110. students voted.

Representatives from the Watkin's campaign were disturbed by the election results, calling it a loss to the SGA elections committee and not Sulik.

"We feel we lost not to Bill Sulik, but we lost to the campus elections committee and their

ineptness," said Gary Beugnet, a member of the Watkin's campaign committee. "Had they been more proficient, professional and knowledgeable as they should have been, there would have been no need for a run-off."

Sulik characterized the re-vote as "the only equitable way" to solve the dispute.

"I hope I can serve everybody," Sulik said after his victory Wednesday night "I've been elected to a leadership position and I hold the philosophy that a leader should be a servant Jesus said if you want to be in charge of many, then you must be a servant of many." .

At press time, the unofficial count gave Sulik 622 votes and Watkins 488 votes. However, the much disputed London votes had not arrived, according to SGA treasurer, Jeff Bolander.

"I hope that somebody has learned from this experience," Beugnet said. "Hopefully, they have learned from this experience and will not screw another candidate out of a well-earned victory. ,»"

Committee titles reveal little of their function ' . r

Ionizing Radiation Safety, Use of Human Subjects in Experimentation...

By BOBBY GIRARDI "If a horse had been

designed by a committee," an old saying goes, "it would have come out a camel."

More than 50 standing committees here are aimed at a wide variety of purposes: the Parking Advisory Com- mittee, the Instructional Delivery Committee, the Ionizing Radiation Safety Committee, the Use of Human Subjects in Experimentation Committee... and that's not even mentioning the dozens of subcommittees and specially appointed ad hoc committees with a myriad of academic and administrative functions.

The titles of the committees, however, don't tell the average James Madison University student much about thier functions, but that seems to be a long standing tradition in committee circles. Take, for example, the Committee of Public Saftely— during the French Revolution it ordained the decapitation of about 20,000 Frenchmen. While JMU obviously doesn't have any committees on campus that order executions, some of them certainly could bear investigation to ascer- tain exactly what their purposes are-is it true that the Committee for the Use of Human Subjects in Ex- perimentation labors long hours in dingy basements of Burruss Hali\ trying to turn human beings into bats?

TO A CERTAIN extent, committees are equated with red tape—mere organs to generate paperwork and obscure the issue. But at JMU,

, according to Dr. John Mundy, director of administrative affairs and coordinator of all campus committees, they fufill a very valuable function.

"Committees are a way in which you get a lot of input," Mundy said. "They provide all

constituencies of the university with a place for input and free discussion."

Mundy indicated that the various committees form the government structure of the university—from the larger and more "rigid" ones such as the University Council to the rather obscure such as the Merit Rating Appeals Com- mittee.

"For certain committees, as with the University Council," said Mundy,

"members serve by virtue of their office; there is no flexibility with ap- pointments...(but) for others the Faculty Senate asks members what committee they wish to serve on, and where we have flexibility. I select them subject to Dr. Ronald Carrier's approval."

A NUMBER of JMU's committees exist because they are required by the government as a prerequisite for certain funding. Some of

these are the Ionization of Radiation Safety Committee, the Discrimination Grievance Committee and the Human Subjects in Experimentation Committee. In regards to the Radiation Ionization Com- mittee, Mundy indicates that "as long as we have nuclear materials it is required by law that we have a safety committee," whose duties it is to oversee the care of nuclear materials is possession of the science department.

The National Research Act of 1974 requires the existence of The Use of Human Subjects in Experimentation Com- mitttee, which was originally intended, according to Chairman Dr. James Couch, to deal with the problems of experiments on fetuses and other medical matters.

"The regulation was that any institution that receives federal funds should have a committee that is charged with reviewing research dealing with human subjects," said Couch. The committe investigates un- dergraduate and graduate research that is brought before it in monthly meetings. Since JMU does not have a medical school, most of the research, has to do with survey and therapy programs, Couch said.

"WE BAJHtALLY deter ♦nine whether or not subjects are at risk, have adequate safeguards been taken, and is the subjec* giving adequate informed c&sent."

Two to thrtt> proposals are reviewed by the committee each month and there are some that have been rejected, but Couch would not discuss any details. "This committee is not in any way structured to inhibit research. It is red tape, but unfortunately, it's something we have to live with.

Though Couch's committee

meets on a regular basis, there are some who meet rarely, is at all. The Discrimination Grievance Committee, has not met since its formation a few years ago. "The committee only hears grievances," said chairman Dr. William R. Nelson. "We haven't had any in my two years as chairman; we have never received a charge. It is there to be an available avenue to air grievances."

Another committee that has not met this year is the In- structional Delivery Com- mittee, whose purpose it is to improve the use of audio visual aids in the classroom. "To be quite honest, the resaon why we have not met," said Chairman Dr. Raymond Ramquist,"is that there is not much we can do." Ramquist indicated that, to a large extent, the committee's duties have been usurped by the Telecommunications Ad- visory and Purchasing Review Board which also deals with audio visual equipment.

"f wouldn't say that the committee isn't viable anymore, maybe it just needs a new direction," Ramquist added. The last act completed by this committee was the compilation last year of recommendations as to the best kind of visual classroom aids.

The flurry of usual committee activity on campus has, according to Mundy, sharply increased recently with the addition of many new as hoc committees to aid in the resertif ication of JMU by the Southern Assocation of Colleges, something that occurs every ten years.

"With the committee structure," concluded Mundy, "we provide an easy way for all to have input and we strive to maintain a balance for adequate representation of faculty and students both."

SGA splits on three budgets; but approves final funds By CINDY ELMORE

Front-end budgets for seven student organizations were set and approved by the Student Government Association senate Tuesday in a record length three-hour final session.

The budget proposal passed by the senate was recommended by Treasurer Jeff Bolander, in opposition to the finance committee's budget recommendation. It was approved by a 17-14 vote in the senate, and on Wednesday by a 3-2 vote in the executive council.

The approved budget breaks down into the following allocations: The Breeze— $31,588; Bluestone—$44,139; Commuter Student Com- mittee— $1,105; Honor Council—$2,025; Inter-hall Council—$605; University Program Board—$90,618; SGA contingency account— $7,500; and SGA operating account—$22,420.

Education building remains nameless By TERRI MALONEY

An official name has not been determined for the newly constructed educational building. Presently, a sign has been put in front of the building identifying it as The School of Education and Human Services.

"We haven't identified anyone to name it after," Ray Sonner, vice president of public affairs said.

Buildings on campus are usually named for people who have made significant contributions to the university, Sonner said.

These contributions are not monetary ones, but are significant contributions in the fields of academics and administration, he said.

It is not unusual that the building has not yet been named after a person as are the majority of the buildings on campus, Sonner said. "We just want to wait until someone's contribution stands out." When construction on a new

building has been completed, a name, usually suggested by the president of the university, must be approved by the board of visitors.

* Recruitment (Continued from page I)

(HEW), in accordance with the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

To reach employment objectives, the university per- formed a work force analysis to examine figures from the labor market. This analysis determined sex and race composition of the work force to determine the availability of this labor.

Once availability was determined, under-utilization was calculated to set numerical objectives for the university, which were spelled out in JMU's Affirmative Action Employment Plan for 1978-83.

This plan suggests the

implementation of a number of steps to encourage blacks to seek faculty posts here.

FOR INSTANCE, deans are now sent to predominantly black institutions to recruit black faculty, Mundy said.

The faculty selection process is carefully monitored by Mundy. A report is required from every department with the names of the applicants who applied for each filled position, the university publications that advertised the vacancy, the special efforts used to recruit minorities, and the reasons for rejection of each ap- plicant, as well as a

description of the selection process.

In addition, Mundy said an effort is being made to increase available funds for black students here to obtain graduate degrees. In 1979, Mundy met with all black JMU juniors, trying to get them interested in graduate education.

Efforts are being made by the state to encourage more black faculty with masters degrees to work toward their doctorates, Mundy said, adding that the state will pay tuition up to $6,800 a year.

i

A REPORT of all faculty

vacancies goes to the State Council of Higher Education in Virginia (SCHEV), since it has contacts with minorities seeking employment.

Among the guidelines set by the state include a quota change: the percentage of black faculty and administrators at each institution and on each board of visitors must equal the percentage of black students graduating with a masters degree within the state system.

For positions requiring a doctoral degree, the goal is the percent of blacks with the required credentials in the

relevant labor market; for non-academic personnel, the goal is the percent of available blacks in the labor market.

Until these goals are met, white institutions must hire a proportion of black faculty and administrators equal to the proportion of blacks in the relevant market area. Timetables were set for these goals to be accomplished.

"We'll make every effort to meet them," Mundy said. "We need a larger black faculty than we have.

"Objectives are set out. Methods are set out. Now it's a matter of getting more applicants."

SGA rescinds prior funding Monies for Honor Council and IFC approved

By CINDY ELMORE With a deficit budget, the

Student Government Association senate Tuesday rescinded money from prior proposals to approve funds for the Honor Council and Inter- Fraternity Council.

Tuesday's session was the last senate meeting for the year.

Senators voted to remove $l,2S0 from a proposal for 60 $25 faculty grants to promote social interaction with students. Also reduced were two $250 rewards for information about vandalism in the Warren University Union. This allotment was cut to two $150 rewards. Both proposals previously had been approved by both the senate and executive council.

"We've undone everything we've ever done this year," said commuter senator Russell Fleetwood.

SENATORS RESCINDED the funds to increase the contingency account so that four additional organizations could be funded Tuesday. However, only two groups- Honor Council and Inter- Fraternity Council—received

allocations before the senate lost quorum (the two-thirds membership which , is required to conduct a meeting).

Commuter senators Rod Shepherd and Fleetwood left the meeting to prevent a $500 allocation to the Panhellenic Council from being voted upon by senators.

The Honor Council requested $170 to pay un- dergraduate scholarship paychecks to one of its coordinators, since the Council has spent its entire budget and reserve account.

The proposal to fund the Honor Council was not discussed by senators before it was voted upon.

THE SENATE allocation to IFC was to fund a pamphlet describing the Greek system to incoming male freshmen.

"This is a necessity to Greeks. It can promote the growth of the individual. Before, the IFC has been front-end budgeted for this," said Mark Davison, legislative vice president- elect.

Commuter senator Ben Thomas suggested "there are

COUPON

better ways to get people exposed to the Greek system."

Bolander explained that although IFC was front-end budgeted in the past, "we saw in the future, more and more organizations coming for front-end budgeting. We felt this broad catagory should be narrowed to groups which serve the entire student body as a whole. As a result, IFC was left out this year."

Commuter senator Jeff Rodgers added that the senate should not fund political, religious or Greek organizations.

Two proposals which later were killed due to the lacking quorum were $500 to the Panhellenic Council, $225 to the Social Work Organization and $200 to the Lutheran Student Movement.

In Monday's executive council meeting, officers approved all proposals approved at Tuesday's senate meeting, as well as $650 to purchase a spare typewriter for the Warren University Union student typing room, $250 to the Film Club, $250 to the Black Student Alliance and $400 to the Lacrosse Club.

*Most qualified9 class to enter JMU in fall By DONNA SIZEMORE

A projected 1,500 freshmen and 600 transfer students will enter James Madison University this fall.

According to Francis Turner, director of ad- missions here, next year's freshmen class is probably the most qualified to ever enroll in the university.

"It seems the total quality of applications is increasing," Turner said, adding that he believes students are doing some self-evaluating in determining their eligibility for admission here.

This year JMU received a record 9,220 applications for admission to the university, an increase of 640 over last year.

Freshmen accounted for 7,400 of the applications, of which 2,800 were offered admisssion. Of the 1,700 transfer students who applied, approximately 1,100 were offered admission, Turner said.

Turner is pleased with the continued popularity of JMU. "Applications at other colleges are on the decline, but ours continue to increase," he said.

More women were accepted than men, Turner said, noting that more females are ap- plying to college than men.

Turner described next

year's class, as diverse, adding that the entire state is well represented.

"Volume of applications pretty well dictates selec- tivity," Turner noted, adding that special emphasis is placed on the strength of the student's high school program when making admission decisions.

HARRISONBURG Zoning and Building Inspector, John Byrd said that the responsibility of following zoning ordinances is up to the landlords, even though he may be often "ignorant" of cases where students lease out their housing to additional students.

"It is a very hard problem to police," but Byrd says that the landlords who most often break the ordinances are usually the same people each year.

Byrd said he could not release the names of any landlords who are in violation of the zoning ordinances.

Residents at South Mason also said they have had several problems with a sagging ceiling above the basement. Water leaking from the shower rotted several floor boards over the furnace, they said.

Other problems include an overhang on the front porch that is rotting, a lack of electrical outlets and weak doors and locks, they said.

RESIDENTS AT the South Main house also complained about weak door and window locks: "College kids have lived here for four years and the locks have never been changed," according to one resident

Trout also allegedly has neglected to keep up the grounds at both locations, which residents claim is one of the landlord's contract responsiblities.

The house on South Main Street had vines on the front door when the residents moved in, and the grass is never cut until "it reaches our knees," according to one resident.

Lin Rose, director of residence halls and commuter student services here, said the only assistance the university can offer would be to

Dick Gregory suggests 1 World family* needed for today's problems

By LOUIS EACHO Although "the whole world

is going crazy, we have not yet reached the point of no return," according to Dick Gregory, a political activist and social satirist.

Gregory spoke here Monday in a lecture sponsored by the Office of Minority Affairs. The speech was rescheduled after Gregory had to cancel a February lecture at the last minute.

Using humor to attack a wide range of serious issues from racism to American presidential politics, Gregory was well-received by an audience that waited more than an hour for him to appear. »

Gregory declared that the political and social problems of this world can "be ironed- out peacefully without dealing in bloodshed" only if the nations of this world come together as a "world family."

THIS ONLY can be done, according to Gregory, if the Average person refuses to allow a few political leaders to manipulate every move he makes. People are still in-

fluenced by the belief that they are insignificant."

However, Gregory said he is probably watched by the FBI and CIA because he never cares about what people think of his opinions or actions.

President Carter is nothing but a "scared coward, who is only willing to mess with our Olympic team," Gregory said.

Although Gregory explained he is not against the idea of a

rather start World War III than admit our mistakes to the Iranians," Gregory said.

Considering the fact that the Shah of Iran had both Ayatollah Khomeini's son and father killed makes it less

'Most folks in the U.S. are so foolish that they would rather start WW III than admit our mistakes to the Iranians'

"Since I am a man of non- violence though, the only way I can pay them back is to force them to follow me to places

•like Harrisonburg," Gregory joked.

According to Gregory, it is not hard to see that the whole world is going crazy when one looks at the actions of the person who is supposed to be the most powerful man on earth: the President of the United States.

GREGORY EXPLAINED that Jimmy Carter must be "insane" to expect the Russians to leave Afghanistan just because he said so on televison, "when he cannot even regulate this nation's own oil companies."

boycott, he believes the U.S. athletes should be the ones to consult with Carter at Camp David and not the big businessmen.

"Carter just sees these children as a way to manipulate world events and get re-elected," according to Gregory, who said the U.S. has always turned a deaf ear toward other countries' plea for a boycott.

Gregory also said he believes the American government should apologize for the crimes they have committed in Iran. Having a "crazy kind of arrogance will get you killed," he noted.

Gregory believes this all adds up to an "American white mentality, where they know who they are able to mess with."

Americans will "jump all' over Iranian students, but they will only ask a visiting Russian for his autograph," he said.

While this "white racist society" has had its effects on blacks, Gregory said it has made white persons scared of other whites.

"If niggers controlled the Mafia or the oil companies they would be shot down or put in jail right away," Gregory explained, but whites are too afraid of each other to take any action.

He also noted that "if any nigger ever became president and was as stupid as Carter he would be run out of office."

HOWEVER, blacks are affected by the white American mentality as much as whites are themselves, according to Gregory. "Black folks are going to Africa to

Skntlakw A brief look at what's happening around the nation, around the world

Soviet electronics WASHINGTON AP - The Soviet Union probably wll be able to get

most of the sophisticated electronics equipment it needs, despite President Carter's ban on technology exports, the U.S. International Trade Commission says.

The commission noted that U.S. allies have agreed not to undercut the embargo, but added: "Previous experience shows that items which U.S. businesses were not allowed to sell were frequently made available to the Soviet Union from other sources." But it said the Soviet oil industry will be hurt by the U.S. refusal to ship sophisticated drilling equipment because the U.S. equipment is the world's most advanced, and the Soviet need is "crucial."

Overthrow Iraq? By The Asociated Press Iran's government radio announced for-

mation of an "Islamic Revolutionary Army for the Liberation of Iraq" and called for a holy war, or jihad, to overthrow the secular Iraqi government vying with Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini for dominance of the Persian Gulf.

Iraqi President Saddam Hussein lashed back, calling on the Iranian people to oust "the rotten Khomeini" and Iranian President Abolhassan Bani-Sadr.

Hussein, speaking Tuesday night in the Iraqi city of Mosul, again called Khomeini a "shah wearing a turban" and said, "If this collision becomes a national duty, then Iraq will do battle in all its forms."

The Iraqi leader said the two countries could reconcile their differences only if Iran meets three Iraqi demands: reaffirmation of Iraq's navigation rights in the Shatt al Arab, an estuary between the two countries that is

Iraq's waterway to the Persian Gulf; with- drawal from the three small islands at the entrance to the gulf which Iran seized in 1971 and fortified, and recognition of the Arab nationality of the non-Persian majority in Iran's oil-producing province of Khuzestan, across the Shatt al Arab from Iraq.

Defense spending

WASHINGTON AP - The Senate Budget Committee's guns-over-butter spending plan is coming under fire from leading liberals, but it seems unlikely the Senate will roll back proposed increases in defense spending.

In the face of the liberal opposition, Senate Majority Leader Robert C. Byrd called for a review of the 1981 budget by Senate leaders, delayng the start of floor debate from Tuesday until next week.

"I think we need more time to have discussions about it," Byrd said Tuesday of the proposed balanced budget for fiscal 1981, which starts Oct. 1.

The Senate committee plan, like ones recommended by President Carter and the House Budget Committee, would balance the budget for the first time in 12 years. But it differs sharply in its priorities.

The Senate committee's $612.9 billion plan recommends $5.2 billion more for defense than the $150.5 billion Carter sought in his $611.5 billion budget. It would pay for that higher military spending by making deeper cute in domestic programs.

The House Budget Committee's $611.8 billion version, which is expected to reach the House floor next Wednesday, is closer to Carter's package although it favors $2.6 billion less in defense spending than the president wants.

Palestinian progress WASHINGTON AP - Although President

Carter and Prime Minister Menachem Begin are making no secret of their differences, there are some superficial signs of progress toward ending the deadlock between Egypt and Israel over the political future oT 1.2 million Palestinian Arabs.

The differences were highlighted Tuesday night when Carter and Begin toasted each other before a kosher dinner for 180 guests at the White House.

Carter, who a week ago recalled the Israeli prime mines ter's commitment to "full autonomy" for the Palestinians living in Israeli occupied territory, talked Tuesday of the difficulty in defining terms. And Begin, while invoking the long friendship between the United States and Israel, warned that Israel can't be pressured to give up too much.

The hint of progress came when diplomatic sources said Begin proposed during Tuesday's opening session of the two-day summit that sue weeks of non-stop negotiations be held in the Middle East to try to reach an agreement on Palestinian autonomy.

the sources, who asked not to be identified, said Begin suggested negotiating sessions between Israel and Egypt be held every day from now until the May 26 target date for a settlement. Half the meetings would be held in Egypt and half in Israel.

The Egyptians are believed to favor shifting the deadlocked negotiations here toward the end of the month. There also have been in- dications U.S. officials would like to see further talks held in Washington, which some ob- servers have suggested could lead to a new Camp David-style summit such as the one that produced the historic accord in September 1978.

budget, which was approved by a 3-1 margin.

ON TUESDAY, senators were presented three budgets—the one set at Sunday's six-member finance committee meeting the one at Monday's four-member committee meeting, and a third budget recommendation made by Bolander. Senators were not given item-by-item allocation breakdowns for any of the proposed budgets.

"I think most of these senators are a little confused. I think there's a little politicing going around," said commuter senator Mark Kline.

Bolander's budget, which was passed by the senate, changed two of the committee recommendations which were set on Sunday.

A major issue in senate was the UPB allocation. According to Debbie Irwin, next year's chairman, the original UPB request did not include an allotment for a six-hour un-

dergraduate scholarship to the new minority program- ming committee chairperson, or include funding for additional minority program- ming, since the decision to form this committee had not yet been finalized.

SENATOR LEE OWEN amended the proposed budget so that the UPB allotment could be increased by $2,300 to cover this and other additional expenses. Owen recommended this amount be taken from theSGA contingency and operating accounts, but the majority of senators agreed that the contingency account should not be additionally reduced to a $6,200 level, and the amendment was not passed.

"As of December, we had about $6,000 or $7,000 in the contingency account. This year's contingency account, it seems, there was a mad rush in the last two or three months to see who could spend the money the fastest ana see how

we could get rid of it the best way," Bolander said. "I don't think this year we've funded organizations from the contingency account as wisely as has been done in the past. I think it's only fair that if anybody can recieve a cut, I think the Student Government contingency account also should be receiving a cut."

SENATOR AL WILLNER later told The Breeze, "I believe the problem that has resulted in the limited ef- fectiveness of the finance committee is due to the factions that have evolved and the political games that have been played in the senate all year with the students' money.

"Next year I would hope that the senate and executive council comes into the year with the idea of voting on the proposals objectively—based on the merits of that proposal—and not sub- jectively, as has been done this year."

(Continued from page 1) minority faculty is also a desired goal.

However, Walker believes JMU will have a difficult time meeting numerical faculty objectives. Despite HEW guidelines, if the university does hot have the funds to hire additional faculty, minority employees will not be brought here.

PROFESSOR RECRUITED Elmer Smith, coordinator of

the alternative education program, a function of the Social Work department of JMU, believes the university should give special atttention to the recruitment of minority faculty. "The school is deficient in terms of not having enough black faculty," Smith said, citing the isolated

area of JMU and economics as factors that hinder recruitment efforts

"Those two reasons may be legitimate," she said, but that should not stop JMU from moving ahead.

According to Smith, the director of the social work program actively recruited

Recruitment of minority faculty would be beneficial to all students, Smith said. "It's a good experience for all concerned to be exposed to people from different backgrounds."

Smith is particularly concerned with the attitude of black students here.

"One thing that has me concerned as a minority faculty member is that young black students appear to be

frustrated," Smith said. "I think someone needs to listen to them. I see something festering that someone needs to attend to."

MONEY NEEDED George Toliver, director of

recreational activity, has worked at JMU for five years and is also a former student. He believes the university will have a difficult time meeting numerical objectives.

"The people who I have talked to aren't really happy with the area and feel it does not have good working con- ditions."

Toliver cited the small percentage of blacks here as a deterrent to recruitment efforts. "It's a difficult situation for many people to

* Gregory

handle," Toliver said, adding that money is probably the only thing that will attract minority faculty to the university.

LAX EFFORTS Sam Benson, a member of

the Art department here, believes that the university has been lax in recruitment efforts. "From what I've been accustomed to, it's been kind of weak and lacking," Benson said, adding that the university is not going to the right geographical areas.

If JMU had more to offer blacks, Benson believes this could aid recruitment efforts. One example Benson cited was the showing of more movies geared towards black interests.

While Benson believes JMU should engage in more publicity, he also stressed the fact that officials should always be honest with prospective faculty members.

"They should inform people what type of community they're coming into," he said. "They shouldn't pull any punches when trying to get good,^ quality instructors

Lillian Jennings, assistant dean in the schoolof education and human services, was reluctant to comment on the minority faculty situation at JMU, statins that the subject was too difficult for students to comprehend.

However, Jennings did state that "the institution is trying to do the best it can do "

(Continued from Page 6)

check out their roots when they have not even seen their cousin around the corner for the last 12 years," he said.

Blacks at white institutions have gotten so content and comfortable that they believe they can educate themselves

into equality, according to Gregory. Instead of using black fraternities and sororities to gain power, for example, they involve themselves with too much "silliness," he said.

After being beat and humiliated for more than 200 years by whites, these black

groups are doing the same thing to their own brothers, Gregory noted.

These groups of students could join together, according to Gregory, but "I bet there are a Tot of niggers on this campus who willnot even talk with each other."

"HISTORY HAS always been screwed-up, according to Gregory. Groups such as the Indians are designated to be picked on "because they had the nerve to kill white folks."

Gregory noted that the ^founding fathers of this nation

are nothing more than a myth. "If anyone knew any of the

real facts about these men they would consider them to be a group of evil, old and degenerate bastards."

Another myth that is widespread today is that nuclear energy is a viable energy source, Gregory continued. Nuclear plants only last for 40 years, but nuclear waste will be around for the next 500 million years, he said.

Nuclear radiation "will kill you," Gregory said. "The next time you think of low-level radiation, think of a low-level pregnancy," he added.

Underwater photography

Tackling the challenge of the sea By MIKE SHUTTY

Thanks to vast technological com- mercialism, creative photography as a hobby become exceedingly easy, especially with such sure-sell gizmos as instamauc, pushbutton cameras that magically produce sharp color photos right before your eyes. Indeed, it has become so common place that many photographers have looked for new worlds to conquer. Many have turned to the sea to tackle the new and challenging frontier of underwater photography.

But, unlike the photo-simplicity of the economically saturated continental world, the oceanic realm is a complex jungle riddled with unexpected hin- drances to the uninformed and uneducated. Many plastic Polaroids have been lost in the depths due to thoughtless attempts at getting that one unique marine-land picture. A camera wrapped in a lock-tight baggie spells only death, not only to that roll of precious film containing all those lovely Beach babes but also to the camera itself. In short, where it takes only a child's mind to snap the shutter in air, it take a conscientious expert to do it among the fishes

"It's a totally different ballgame when you're shooting underwater, and you have many factors to deal with," explained Tommy Thompson, JMU advanced photojournalism instructor.

The award-winning underwater photojournalist and JMU public information photographer said, "Without the necessary equipment, water will destroy your camera,''

Like most highly alluring and ad- venturous hobbies, underwater photography is damaging to the bank

IN THIS underwater photo by Tommy Thompson, a turtle was shot from

below to catch the reflection as it came to the surface.

account in more ways than one. The costs begin to escalate rapidly even before purchasing the camera equipment itself.

As Tommy Thompson explained, "the first thing you must do is to become a certified scuba diver—that's a safety thing that's been established. You can buy all the equipment you want but you can't get your tanks filled

without being certified. Then you've got to buy all the gear including tanks, fins, mask—about $600 dollars will set you up," he continued.

That is just the life-sustaining equipment. Acquisition of "good" equipment is emphasised, for in most cases the quality of the photographs which can be produced will depend, to a large extent, on the type and condition

of the equipment being used. Thus, a rich, numbheaded spend-thru* t outfitted with official Olympic scuba gear and a special underwater camera will probably get consistently better pictures than Joe Snorkel shooting through a cheap Kodak locked in some lunchbox apparatus.

"If you already have a camera, like a 35mm reflex, it will cost over 200 dollars to put it in a housing. If you buy an underwater camera designed for that purpose it will run you over 300 dollars. You'll also need a strobe light which likewise is expensive," Thomp- son said.

Once all the equipment is acquired, whether rented, bought or found, then comes the problem of acutally cap- turing something on film—from ferocious barracudas to slim legs a- swimming. ^

"You can't imagine how difficult it would be to shoot in a dust storm," Thompson commented; "well, a lot of times you go into the water and you got a dust storm in front of you—you must know how to work with these situations. Many times you have added variables like: how much pollution is in the water, or how many pieces of silt are in the water, and so on," Thompson added.

"Most of the time underwater," Thompson further explained, "you are shooting in the prone position. You must realize that you're not standing firm; you're floating, and if you don't have the right weights on, you could be going down or coming up. You have to adjust to these factors, he added.


The Father' explores mental, spiritual ruin By WES WILLOUGHBY

Does a man ever know for sure that he is the father of his mate's son?

The play "The Father" explores this question and drives the main character insane, leading to his personal and spiritual ruin.

"The Father" subtly boasts mental and spiritual action rather than a heady dose of physical action and the cast carries this off quite well.

Dr. Frank Southerington, guest director from Mary Baldwin College in Staunton, directs his own translation of this August Strindberg play, originally written in Swedish

The plot begins swiftly as the first act opens. The Captain, played by Mark Legan, is taking care of problem incurred by a dragoon under his com- mand—an accidental pregnancy.

As the Captain, Legan establishes a character ob- sessed with power and its responsibility. The Captain is rationalistic,and upholds a supreme dominance of male over female. As a military man, the Captain runs his household with an iron grip. As a scientist, he neglects the opinions of .others,- super- ceding nis* owhr ide4s - ove*r

Theater their beliefs and lifestyles.

THE INITIAL conflict begins over the Captain's daughter, Bertha. There is considerable debate over the girl's upbringing, and the Captain wishes to remove her from such an environment.

The Captain's desires are hindered by his wife, Laura, played by Janet Eason. Laura is a stubborn female with subtle ambitions that sneak undetected past the flam- boyance of the Captain's male

made excellent use of facial gestures, imposing a childlike thrusted chin and pouting lips to round out her obstinan'ce.

Laura knows the Captain all too well, and helps induce his insanity. She realizes that he wants to impose his own lifestyle upon Bertha, and move her to a more tranquil environment in order to do so.

The play illustrates the sex conflict contemporary to Strindberg's time, the late 18O0's. The Swedish feminist movement was only in its birth stage, and the play brings t« fight disagreements that seem petty to us now, but they were held more import then.

Laura protests the dictum that a child must be raised with her father's values and ideology. Bertha must be raised as a female, Laura believes, that grows to be a woman with will enough to survive in a male supremist society.

Debby Huntington plays Bertha as a subtle and dominated child. However, after costuming and make-up, Huntington comes off as more of a Barbie doll, plastically stiff. Her voice does not quite fill the theater, and she lacks a

Diverse musical entertainment highlights Spring Fever 1980


By BRYAN POWELL Finally, FINALLY, after a long, bleak,

winter, Spring Fever Weekend has arrived once again. This year Spring Fever will feature lour bands whose talent covers a wide musical range. A professional frisbee show will also appear.

The festivities will begin at noon, Saturday, April 19, on the Godwin practice field. Ap- pearing will be the North Star Band and James Madison University's own Lokeswari. The North Star Band is a five piece "progressive country" group hailing from Washington, D.C.

SATURDAY night at eight p.m. in Wilson Hall, Louisiana's LeRoux will apear with special guest The Jeff Lorber Fusion. Louisiana's LeRoux is a six man "rock'n' funk" band from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Their style draws upon roots of blues, jazz/ rock ana roll, soul, funk, and Cajun music, a unique style displayed on the band's second

'Finally, FINALLY, after a long, bleak winter,

Spring Fever weekend has arrived again*

This band mixes a variety of influences, mostly bluegrass, rock, country and R & B jazz to produce what group founder Al Johnson and the band call "Kick Ass Country." The North Star Band has recorded one album, "Tonight the North Star Band" (Adelphi Records AD 2014). Their latest single, "Virginia," is currently receiving airplay in many parts of the country

ALSO appearing will be Lokeswari, a campus band previously covered in The Breeze, which has become popular in the past year. Their repetoire includes large doses of Epular, Southern and country rock. While

ving been together as a group for only relatively short time, Lokeswari has earned a reputation as a very capable and accomplished band. Their appearance Saturday wUf mark the first time they have been seen by most JMU students.

For a different sort of entertainment, the "Martha Brings 'em Back" frisbee show will appear on the quad Saturday at noon. The show is named after Martha Faye, the five year old, sixty-five pound Labrador retreiver mix who owns the Guiness K-9 World Record for long distance frisbee catching (335 feet, starting behind the thrower). The show features five segments, including a "history of frisbee technique mini-clinic," "freestyle to music,"

album, "Keep The Fire Burning" (Capitol Records). The band's sound includes four and Five part harmonies and tight ensemble style playing The band appeared last summer on "Midnight Special" and provided music for Steve Martin's "Wild And Crazy Guy" television special. Last New Year's Eve was declared "Louisiana LeRoux Day" by Louisiana State Governor Edwin Edwards. Recently, LeRoux's popularity has been growing in leaps and bounds, particularly in the South, and, in the words of the band's bassist, Leon Medica, "We're going to take it all the way this year."

Also appearing with LeRoux will be The Jeff Lorber Fusion, a band which has been receiving much critical acclaim of late. Their style has been described as including "rich Latin and funk contexts for Lorber's sophisticated harmonies and soulful melodies...a full fusion sound with simple intensity and convincing energy." The band's first album, "Soft Space" (Inner City Records), was a Top Ten Jazz LP. Down Beat gave the release four stars and described it as "a bright, uncluttered, cooking album that is 'very'funky." Selected as last year's number one New Jazz Group by Cashbox Jeff Lorber's fusion of funk rhythms, pretty melodies, and jazz improvisations will most likely be an excellent compliment to the rich Cajun funk of LeRoux.

Apted's 'Coal Miner's Daughter' has appeal for all audiences

DR. RALPH COHEN When a movie can appeal to

what George Wallace liked to call the "pointy-headed in- tellectual" and at the same time wow the "hillbilly," then iyes popular ai>t at its best. COALMINER'S DAUGHTER, now at the Roth, is just such a film and it manages to be an "entertainment movie" while it slyly deals with the issues that touch all of us—family, love, and work.

And while KRAMER VS. KRm-rCTratoflnually talks to us about its subject, COAL MINER'S DAUGHTER just shows us. When Loretta's daddy gives each of his kids the annual pair of mail order shoes, the love and security in the coal miner's household is unmistakable without a word being said.

child's verve that would surface from a girl in such a predicament.

LAURA DECIDES to ruin the Captain in order to remove his power over the child. She enlists, and falsely builds, the superstitions of the new family doctor, played by Robert Hickman. Hickman plays all his characters with a style so subtle as to be unreachable. He embeds his personality into the action, urging the plot along with silent ambiguity. He only surfaces for ai/when the play needs him.

The Captain's only ally to the end is Margaret, the household nurse, played by Debbie Banton. Her characterization bespeaks a flare for degree, but the direction is too constant, coming off rather narrow.

The nurse is a Christian, and receives derision from the Captain for this. Margaret wishes the best for her 'little boy" that she practically raised from childhood. Yet she is the one that slips the strait-jacket, and the final condemnation, on the Captain in the end.

daughter has given less to her famdy than the coal miner gave to his.

The movie abounds with such insights, understated and precise; but none more visually memorable than Loretta's departure from Butcher Holler. Her father (you'll never see better film acting in a small role) has taken Loretta to the train and must say goodbye to his oldest child, as he suspects, forever. Characteristically, he is slow to speak and has few words to say. Apted has framed the father and daughter on the left of the screen and the railroad tracks on the right. Loretta's father at last puts his feelings into -^nete- '"r^ese years have been robbed from me." But even as he speaks, the train, moving inexorably closer, black and menacing, begins to fill the screen and drowns out his words. All of the dark undertones of the moment—the father's vulnerability, the cruelty of time, the intrusion of the outside world—combine in the gloom and roar of the train that smothers the frame.

But despite these deep glimpses, the film remains

ipeful. Even with their fights, their separations, and their misunderstandings, Mooney and Loretta are a team. We see that however imperfect their marriage is, they need each other and are better for it. That may be what the "hillbillies" have to teach the "pointy-headed intellectuals." Life, the film seems to say, may be rough enough to require an oc- casional country song, but it's nothing to mope over.

Events have conspired to put JMu is an enviable position. Michael Apted will be here discussing his role as director just as his first big hit is taYmg. off But he has had

to cover. Charles Webb plays the

pastor, which seems almost an unnecessary part, aside from the -fact that he is Laura's brother. The pastor is wimpy even when compared to Father Mulcahey on M-A-S- H, but Webb recovers to throw strong suspicion on Laura's dirty deeds at the denoument.

As the Captain's desperation grows, he realizes the duel to the end between himself and Laura is on, and perhaps Laura's victory is a tribute to Women's Liberation.

LAURA'S underhanded tactics betray her strength, however, effecting a beautiful compromise over the outcome. The Captain is left as good as dead as the play closes, and the household is left shaking their heads over such a "sordid affair."

The play's forte is dialogue between two characters, which makes for less complication in production, and ease for the audience with a possibility of boredom.

But the pace is well- maintained. The pressure builds as the play progresses steady enough to allow for few yawns.

The Captain does manange to throw a lamp at Laura at one point, but Legan does this

other successful films and two of them will be shown here. On Sunday at 7 p.m. in Miller 101, Mr. Apted will show and discuss STARDUST, a 1974 movie about the tribulations of a successful rock group. And on Monday in Grafton- Stovall at 7 p.m. he will show and discuss AGATHA, which stars Dustin Hoffman and Vanessa Redgrave and which this year won an Oscar nomination. Visually as rich as COAL MINER'S DAUGHTER, AGATHA explores the mystery surrounding Agatha Christie's true life disappearance. Both STARDUST and AGATHA will be presented free of charge.

by running across the stage and tossing it offstage. A more glorified approach would have let the audience see the lamp cruising airborne over what Legan has to run.

Legan's role becomes more difficult as the Captain's security is lost, and there is no compromising on the Cap- tian's desperation. Legan's voice gains a resonance begging to be heard, and he stays totally within the character.

The set and costumes show a simple complication that whispers the undertones of the plot. Underneath the physical, the immediately visible, a sophistication of character is maintained. The director's tone is kept consistent.

But Legan's make-up seemed rather heavy. Ban- ton's red hair still showed through the gray dye. Nojd, a rather ignominious character, looks boyish and speaks in a choirboy voice, although the Captain speaks of him as aggressive, having been whipped many times. Nojd did not look hardened.

•Photography (Continued from Page 12)

It goes without saying, of course, that the underwater photographer must learn to master his equipment. Since most of the scuba gear is cumbersome, this is not as easy as it seems, especially when lugging around a heavy camera and a strobe light outfit. For example one problem Thompson sees is using the viewfinder properly.

"Looking through the viewfinder is a big problem for a lot of people,"especially for those who don't have 20-20 vision," Thompson explained. "Plus, when you have mask on, it limits your view thorugh the viewfinder by a few in- ches. However, there is an apparatus which can aid this by expanding the viewfinder range," he added.

Despite all the preparation and practice needed to Ereduce underwater photos, it

as beome a rewarding ex periece for 't. "*» Tommg Thompson who have become successful. The market for such photography is small, but there is oppurtunity for new photographers in areas like wildlife an swimming magazines.

"I specialize in fresh water photography, but then I'm in a fresh water area," Thompson commented. "I had a article in a skin diver publication on

the fresh water eel. Also, I just completed a YMCA swimming manual with underwater photographs of swimmers- rescue holds and all that stuff," he added.

In sum, underwater photography can be an ad- venture, but it is also a fine art

requiring patience, practice, and the necessary equipment. The one major point that Tommy Thompson stresses in all his photography classes is that,"you master the camera, and don't let the camera master you—that's the important thing."

Virginia Tech 'embarrasses'sloppy Dukes 'We really stunk up the field today. We always do down here

By RICH AMACHER BLACKSBURG, Va.—Virginia Tech erased an one-

run James Madison University lead in the second inning by pounding out four hits and scoring as many times en route to a 10-2 victory.

JMU scored first, but after that it was all VPI. Jeff Kidd led off with an infild hit followed by walks

issued to Tom Bocock and Phil Titus. Russ Dickerson then slugged a sacrifice fly to left scoring Kidd.

The Hokies chased starter Joe Carleton from the mound when Brian RUPE AND Mike Preisser hit back-to-back singles. Carleton walked Jay Phillips to load the bases and Franklin Stubbs slammed a two- run single knocking in Rupe and Preisser.

The Dukes closed the lead to 5-2. When Lorenzo Bundy doubled and Titus singled to send him home.

Jim Stewart tripled to lead off the Hokies, sixth and that marked the end for JMU. Stewart scored on a ball four wild pitch to Aldrich:

Mitchell singled and was bunted to second by Krynitsky. Rupe smashed his third hit in five trips to left scoring both Aldrich and Mitchell.

JMU thwarted a Hokies rally in the seventh turning over their first even triple^play.

With runners on second and third, Stewart grounded to short, Bocock fielded the ball and threw

Stuffs was caught heading towards third and Bundy tagged him out. Phillips on third raced home, but

Phillips advanced to third on a grounder by Jim Stewart and scored on an error by Bocock. Andy Aldrich walked and scored on a single by Mike K?raioryMark Dacko was coach Brad Babcock's choice to relieve Carleton after he had forced out eight batters. Dacko struck out Mark Worley to end the inning. . . _ . .

VPI scored a run in the second when Rupe singled, stole a base, and advanced to third on a passed ball. He then scored on Phillips ground out to short.

Dacko settled down and took control during the third, fourth and fifth striking out five.

Bundy's throw nailed him cold. VPI added two runs in the eigth to account for the

final score. Mike Rhodes went the distance for the Hobes

striking our six to raise his record to 4-3. , Carleton picked up the loss, his first.

Ths loss dropped the Dukes to 24-7 and evened the scores with VPI at three each.

Dickerson expressed disgust with JMU's performance. ■

"We really stunk up the field today. It seems like we always do when we come down here," he said. "We hate losing to these guys," he added.

Babcock termed the loss one of the most embarrasing in the Dukes history.

"With all the facilities we have we should never perform like this. It was the most embarrasing game I've ever been associated with," Babcock said.

JMU's next home game is tomorrow when the host Virginia Commonweath in a double-header.

Dukes top VMU9-73 Senior Mike Benshoff and junior David Glover each

won two events last Wednesday afternoon to lead the James Madison University men's track team to a 79- 73 win over VMI at Madison Stadium.

Benshoff won both the 1,500-meter run (3:56.1) and the 800-meter run (1:54.9), while Glover gained wins in the high jump (6*10") and the triple jump (50 W). Glover's distance in the triple jump was a JMU record.

Three other JMU records were established during the meet. Senior Mike Thompson won the 400-meters (48.3), freshman Therron Phipps finished second in the long jump (24'%") and senior Clayton Hulbert finished second in the javelin (229W) to esublish JMU records.

Benshoff also won the 1,500-meters last weekend at the Dogwood Relays in Knox ville, Tenn. Benshoff had a time of 3:46.1.

Other top finishers for the Dukes were Hulbert with a fourth in the open division of the javelin (225'9"), senior Richard Ferguson with a sixth in the 10,000- meters (30:53.9) and senior Jeryl Turner with a seventh in his division of the steelpchase (9:28.5).

Robinson leads Varsity past outmanned Alumni

-

Tailback Butch Robinison carried the ball 14 times for 108 yards and one touchdown last Saturday afternoon to lead the James Madison University Varsity football team to a 28-10 victory over the Alumni in a game that ended JMU's spring practice period.

The Alumni team took an early lead when Joe Showker kicked a 38-yard field goal with 4:33 left in the first quarter. The field goal was set up when linebacker Dale Caparaso intercepted a Tom Bowles pass and returned it 11 yards to the Varsity's 24-yard

The Varsity took the lead when Bowles capped a 67-yard eight-play drive with an eight yard touchdown run with 9:04 left in the first half. Robinson carried the ball four times for 29 yards in the drive.

The Varsity marched 70 yards in 11 plays for a touchdown after taking the second half kickoff. Fullback Don Jones went five yards for the touchdown with 7:35 left in the third quarter. Bowles rushed

five times for 25 yards in the drive and completed a 30-yard pass t". -winghack, ^err^d Stewart.

The Alumni closed to within 14-10 when tailback Dennis Hutson went five yards for a touchdown with 10:50 left in the game. Dale Eaton set up that touchdown by recovering a fumble on the Varsity's five- yard line.

Robinson capped a 62-yard three-play drive for the Varsity with a 50-yard touchdown run that put the game out of reach with 3:06 remaining. Fullback Mike Damiano scored JMU's final touchdown when he raced 24 yards with 21 seconds left in the game.

Bowles carried 12 times for 69 yards and Jones 11 times for 47 yards in the game as the Varsity rushed for 293 yards and had 352 yards in total offense. Bowles completed three of eight passes tor 50 yards and had two passes intercepted, while Mike Dudzik completed one of two passes for nine yards as JMU totaled 59 yards passing.

Sabitus discovers ability By DAVID TEEL

Natural ability is an intangible product, and such an inborn forte is usually discovered at an early age.

James Madison University track standout and The Breeze JMU Athlete of the Week Barb Sabitus is an exception.. She had not run competitive track until this past winter, but in the preceding time span, Sabitus has etched her name into the university's record books several times.

She is a natural runner. During the indoor season Sabitus established

JMU standards in the mile, two mile and 5000 meter races. However, her most smashing performances have come in the recent outdoor campaign.

Sabitus eclipsed the previous JMU record for 5000 meters by over two and a half minutes with a time of 34:31.7. She then shattered the 10,000 meter mark by over eight minutes.

Coach Lynn Smith said, "Barb has ex- ceptional physiological ability, it's something you can't train."

The instant success Sabitus has experienced surprised even herself, "I really didn't think I'd do this well," Sabitus said, "Last summer I ran some road races for fun and as my times improved I realized I might want to run track."

Her success at JMU has been a springboard to other opportunities. Following a victory in the 5000 meters at the VAIAW state meet, Sabitus traveled to Missouri for the National AIAW Indoor Track and Field Championships.

She finished 13th and learned a lesson. "Because of my lack of experience, at big meets I'd evaluate my competition and hang on their shoulder during the race," Sabitus said. This tactic may have caused her to start out with 33 second splits instead of the planned 40 second pace.

Orioles to repeat as American League champ 'But, Baltimore is by no means a lock this season9

By DAVID TEEL The American League usually finds

a way to lose the All Star game to their National League counterparts, but in the Eastern Division the junior circuit possesses baseball's toughest and most competitive grouping

Defending champion Baltimore is by no means a lock this season. The Orioles offense was strikingly im- potent in the final three games of the World Series and the Birds will be facing better pitching in the regular season than Pittsburgh showed last October.

However, Doug DeCinces is how healthy at third base and Jim Palmer says his arm is free of the pain that plagued him last year. ;

If these two can return to form and Eddie Murray can achieve the superstar status he is destined to, the Birds will he difficult to dethrone. Tim Stoddard will be a capable replacement for Don Stanhouse in the bullpen and Earl Weaver will provide the intangible of having the finest manager in the game.

If Milwaukee had the Orioles pitching, no one could stop them. The Brewers have an offensive jugger- naut, add to that the return of Larry Hisle in the outfield, and Milwaukee should challenge the entire season. Cecil Cooper, Gorman Thomas and Sixto Lezcano lead the attack that allowed the Brewers to place second last year.

George Bamberger is a proven

handler of pitchers but he may not return following a spring heart attack. Pitching is the main concern for the Brewers especially the relief corp where there is no stopper.

As usual the Yankees were very involved in off-season player tran- sactions and they have improved themselves. Rupert Jones will move into centerf ield and Rick Cerone will take over the catching chores. Jones hit well in Seattle but anybody and everybody hits well in the Kingdome.

Tommy John and Ron Guidry provide an excellent starting tandem and Goose Gossage is back in the .bullpen. The success of the other turners in Dick Howser's rotation will be the turning point for the Yanks. Rudy May and Louis Tiant may be too old to do the job. New York's biggest asset is that they have the finest clutch hitter in baseball, Reggie Jackson.

It's getting to be an old story in Boston, no pitching to support a formidable hitting attack. Bill Campbell will be back and the Red Sox obtained Skip Lockwood to sure up the staff. Carl Yaz may be aging but Fred Lynn and JimRice are super performers in the outfield. Despite attempts to improve it, pitching will again fail the Sox in their effort to win the division.

Detroit has a team of the future. Ron LeFlore is gone to Montreal but rookie Kirk Gibson is expected to step

right in and do the job fact center. In Steve Kemp and Jason Thompson, Detroit has two of the finest young hitters in baseball.

If the Tigers get any pitching they may determine the race's outcome by playing the spoiler role. Manager Sparky Anderson certainly has reason to be positive about the Tigers' chances this season and in those to come. •.

Cleveland and Toronto will again be the cellar dwellers of the East. The Indians can hit but don't have much in the pitching department and the Blue Jays are weak in every aspect.

Out West the Angels are looking to replace Nolan Ryan and if they don't get big years from Frank Tanana and Mark Clear on the hill they will probably lose their title. Clear was sensational until the All Star break in '79 and then strugrled.

Don Baylor and Bobby Grich provide solid offense and Carney Lansford is a young third baseman with an abundance of talent. He has to just develop it now. The cliche, good pitching will beat hitting applies in this division as Kansas City will return to the top.

Dennis Leonard, Larry Gura and Paul Splitorff are adequate starters in a division that has thin pitching overall. Shortstop is the Royals sore spot at the moment with Freddie Patek being lost. The attack of Amos Otis, Willie Wilson and Darrell Porter

spark Kansas City in a home park designed perfectly for their style of play, speed oriented offense

Texas has too many old arms. Ferguson Jenkins got rocked by home runs last year and Gaylord Perry is 41. Jon Matlack is a youngster by comparison and will have to win consistently for the Rangers to con- tend. The bullpen is excellent with Jim Kern the tireless ace. Al Oliver, Buddy Bell and Richie Zisk lead an array of quality hitters but too many times these good stickers have problems on defense. Nelson Norman and Bump Wills are the main of- fenders.

Gene Mauch is one of baseball's most knowledgable skippers and he will need it all to have Minnesota in the running. The Twins lost Dave Goltz to free agentry and Mike Marshall may be tiring out in the pen.

The A's hive Billy Martin and virtually nothingelserMatt Keough is not as bad as he was last year but not as good as he was in '78 and he is Oakland's best hurler. Martin will certainly have his patience tested by this young bunch.

Like its expansion partner Toronto, Seattle has no chance of winning the division but the Mariners are improved.

So a Baltimore-Kansas City playoff match is likely but if the Birds offense sputters for long the power-ladden Brewers will be there on the doorstep.

Club softball Members participate for 'iftey're love of the sport9

By DENNIS SMITH Often, athletes' love of a sport allows them to en-

dure endless hours of inconvenience and pain. Varsity athletes are expected to sacrifice several

hours a day to gruelingly train for their event. Then, they must somehow muster the strength to study in the evening like other students.

The 23 members of the'women's softball club not only put in their hours, but they also pay for the privledge of being James Madison University's of- hcal softball representative.

While the club pays its own way to away tournaments and supplies off icals for home games, it also must pay for half of its uniforms. The other half is supplied by an outside sponsor.

As a club, the student government gives the group $600 a year. But the club's coach Doug Wheelbarger estimates the group spends at least $1,500, despite cutting comers everywhere possible. The difference is obsorbed the the players and coaches.

"I beleive I have the most dedicated athletes on

this campus," said Wheelbarger. "I'm sure other coaches could dispute this, but my athletes go through as much if not more to play, than a lot of others. I guess it's just because of they're love of the sport." v

"They're love of the sport" is the key phrase for the club. Despite the hardships, or maybe because of them, the two-year-old club has dominated every state opponents since its beginning.

Last year the squad finished its season with a 16-2 mark, and this year against an upgraded schedule the club has gone 19-6, including wins over Virginia, George Mason and other state rivals.

Wednesday the Duchesses sweep a doubleheader from Ferrum, 9-1 and 14-11. Anne Sumser threw a two-hitter in the first game, while Judy Baumgard- ner pounded out a five of six performance at the plate during the second contest.

"They (the players) definitely want to win," said Wheelbarger. "They have a competitive edge they've acquired from other sports and when they step onto

*w the field with varsity teams, they want to prove they can compete with them.

"As its turned out, not only can they compete, but they can win against these clubs."

All but one of JMU's opponents are presently varsity team or they have plans to convert next year. Yet, Wheelbarger believes JMU has the best group of players in the state.

"JMU has a natural influx of good athletes," he said. "Not only does the school draw from the traditional strong hold of Nothern Virginia, but it also draws from other fine programs throughout the state and outside it.

"JMU has one of the finest athletic programs throughout the state, and good athletes come her for other sports. They naturally fit into a softball program."

Over half of the team's players also participate in varsity athletics, including five on the women's basketball team.


* Sabitus

THE WOMEN'S SOFTBALL CLUB P,H"0 by Charlw A FMl° tarted last season and already JMU believes the Duchesses' immediate

become a power in the state. The success is because of his players s ■ • eo«ch. • Doug. Wheelhargec .. \|pye Jpr. Jb* sport.'\ ^ T


Smith said this was unusual because Sabitus normally runs at a level pace and has a good sense of time.

"It's easier to keep time on the road," Sabitus stated, "On the track you tend to get caught up in the ex- citment."

Another national meet is on top now for the sophomore; Sabitus has qualified for the National AIAW Outdoor Track and Field Cham- pionships in Eugene, Oregon on May 2lst.

According to Smith, Sabitus has a legitimate and realistic chance to do "very well" in Eugene.

Sabitus has now expanded her running activities outside the realm of JMU. She is a member of a New York based club and is sponsored by the Nike shoe company.

A paid trip to San Diego for the National AAU Road Racing Cham- pionships last week-was a reward lor

this affiliation. Sabitus' team finished second.

Nike's sponsorship and payment of the trip is allowed under AAU rules as long as the athlete herself is not promoting the products in the media, so Sabitus' amateur standing is not jeopordized

Also, Sabitus plans to run in a prestigious road race in New Jersey May 4th.

This hectic schedule of race competition is physically and mentally tough on Sabitus. "Right now I'm tired and trying to recover from some grueling races," Sabitus commented.

A slight injury combined with this fatigue will cause Sabitus to miss the state outdoor meet today.

"I think it's her inexperience and my inexperience in working with her that caused this," Smith stated.

"In addition to running indoor and outdoor track next season, Sabitus plans to compete in cross country. She had been on the field hockey and lacrosse teams before discovering her nack for running. ( ,,„,,.


Cloudy skies cover Dacko 's senior season BY TIM HALL The sky is an ugly gray, giving a

feeling of dusk instead of the actual 3 p.m. starting time. The James Madison University Dukes' baseball team is about to take the field against E.C.A.C. and intrastate rival

.University of Richmond. Wind gusts send many a player

scrambling after his cap as it dances across the saturated outfield grass. Players from both teams are huddled in their respective dugouts, periodically jumping from one foot to the other in a futile effort to keep warm.

Down the third-base line, a tall, lanky righthanded pitcher begins his own struggle to get loose. Mark Dacko is about to take the mound in this game, a very important one for the Dukes, and he, like his fellow players, is having difficulty getting warmed up.

Occasionally, Dacko tugs at his right elbow, almost as if he is trying to work out the soreness with his fingers. Ironically, a possible career in professional baseball for Dacko may hinge on the ability of a Chariot- tesville surgeon to do just that.

On October 11 Dacko underwent a "minor, 25-minute operation" on his right elbow. Nonetheless, it was surgery, and professional scouts are wary of any young athlete that has surgery, especially a pitcher who has an operation on his throwing arm.

The problem was with the ulnar nerve in Dacko's right elbow. But it took a while to decide just what the problem was, according to the senior from Trumbull, Conn.

"I first started having problems late last spring," Dacko said. "It continued into the summer, but the doctors I talked to said it was just tendonitis so I didn't worry too much about it Then when I came back in the Fall, the pain was really bad, so we decided to check with Dr. (Frank) McCue in Charlottesville."

McCue is the team physician for the ;■ University of Virginia and is one of

the cast of thousands that has operated on former professional football player Joe Namath McCue diagnosed the ailment as a stretched ulnar nerve.

"Whenever I threw, the nerve rubbd against the bone and that caused the intense pain," Dacko recalled. There was no way that the nerve could have repaired itself because it was stretched so badly, so Dr. McCue and I decided to go ahead

'My fastball doesn't have quite the zip it did'

Mark Dacko and have the operation. I took a few months off and started throwing again in January."

The stretching of the ulnar nerve is a common ailment among athletes who rely on their arms a great deal, namely pitchers and tennis players. In fact, JMU's former top-seed tennis player Steve Gill had the same type of operation last year.

Even though he was throwing less than three months after the surgery, the comeback road has not been a totally smooth one for Dacko.

"I was kind of tentative (when he started to throw again). After any operation there is going to be some scar tissue, and it hurts when the scar

tissue begins to tear away. I was scared to throw hard when I came back," Dacko said. "It would have really bothered me if I couldn't have pitched again, but I never had any doubts that I could come back."

"As far as mechanics go, I've had trouble getting my rhythm back. I'm still not in that good throwing groove I was in last year. I've been pressing too much, trying to throw the ball by a hitter instead of getting a routine out," Dacko remarked.

The "good throwing groove" was indeed a good one, good enough in fact, to be noticed by the major league scouts. Last summer Dacko was selected in the professional free-agent

draft of amateur players. Ironically, the team that selected

Dacko, the San Francisco Giants, had never seen him pitch prior to their selecting him. They based their selection on the scouting report filed by the Major League Scouting Bureau, an organization that provides independent reports on prospects throughout the country.

The Bureau provides those reports to any team that subscribes to their service. The Bureau used an intricate cross-check system to get accurate reports and the Giants used it to pick Dacko.

Dacko said he was at his home in Trumbull when word came of his selection, which occurred on the second day of the threeday affair.

"I had been hanging aroung the house all day waiting for a call, but it never came while I was there so I decided to go down and play some jai alai. When I got back home my dad said some guy from Kentucky had called. I remember thinking, 'there's no team in Kentucky,' but I called him back and it turned out that he was a scout from the Giants."

"He told me I had been selected in the 19th round. The first thing I said was '19th round? Oh.' I was really disappointed that I went in such a low round but I guess after the way I pitched in the E.C.A.C. playoffs my market value went way down. I knew right then that I wouldn't sign, but I told the scout I would think about it and get back to him. My father and I discussed it briefly and I called the scout back the next day and told him, •no'."

According to the major league scouts that have seen him, Dacko is considered to have an average major league fastball and above average slider and curveball. Last season his fastball was timed at 88 miles-per- hour, but Dacko said it isn't quite as good this season.

"My fastball doesn't quite have the zip it did last year. It may take a while before I can reach the point where I can throw as hard as I did last year," Dacko said. "I just haven't thrown as consistently hard this season as I did last."

Will Dacko have another shot at professional baseball?

"I think I will. Teams don't like to waste draft picks on guys that won't sign. The first thing they ask a player when they think he has professional ability is 'are you ready to go?' I am ready to go."

Equitation

JMU wins Virginia Intermont competition

-

The James *Madison University equitation team compiled 26 points Sunday, April 14 to wm the 13-team Virginia Intermont College Intercollegiate Show in Bristol.

Dukes overtake St. Mary's

POD DISTRIBUTING!

By KENNY SOTHORON "We spend a lot of time

emphasizing Doubles," said James Madison University's coach Jack Arbogast, after his team came from behind 2-4 to beat Mount St. Mary's 5-4.

On Tuesday the Dukes hosted Mount St. Mary's in their final home game of the season and came away with a victory. The Dukes only managed to win two of the six singles but come back and swept all three doubles matches.

JMU's top-seed Mark Mitchels, still playing on a weak ankle, lost to Tom Magtrorna of Mount St. Mary's 6-3,6-4. Mark Snead of JMU took St. Mary's Dan McDernitt three sets before losing 6-1, 2-6, 6-3.

Billy Dashiell got the Dukes first win when he beat Mark Perry in straight sets 6-4, 64. Fourth-seeded Gary McLanis went three sets with Paul Smith before losing 6-3, 5-7, 6- 3.

The only other singles win came from the raquet of fifth- seeded John Witt as he beat St. Mary's Mike Guiffre 6-4, 6- 2. Sixth seeded Dave Rigotti lost a tough one for the Dukes

After winning the first set 6- 3, over St. Mary's Dave McCauley, McCauley rallied back and won the final two sets in tie breaker 7-6, 7-6.

last Saturday we beat Catholic 5-4 and Mount St. Mary's beat them 8-1 on Sunday. "I was hoping that we could split in the singles then take 2 of 3 doubles.

•Softba/f (Continued on Page 17)

This weekend the club will participate in the double- elimination Third Annual Women's D.C. Collegiate Invitiational in Washington, D.C. The squad will be the only non-varsity team to compete in the tournament. Formidable opponents include Catholic University, the U.S. Naval Academy, George Mason and Towson State.

Last weekend, the team was the only non-varsity team to play in the Virginia Invitation Tourney in Charlottsville. But, JMU defended its title with a 11-6 victory over Virginia.

During the tournament, the squad topped the Cavaliers two of three games and it edge George Mason with a three-

run, two-out rally in the bottom of the seventh inning.

The team is young and if Wheelbarger sound somewhat optimistic about his team, it may be that he will lose only one starter from this year's team. He also knows more fine athletes will keep coming to JMU.

Wheelbarger hopes someday the club will gain varsity status, and won't have to pay for their own uniforms and traveling expenses.

But until that day comes, he says the squad will be content being labeled a club sport, for down deep he knows that despite the title, JMU softball is truly one of the finest softball squads not only in the state but the entire Eastern Coast.

Changes to avoid 'mediocrity' By STEVE COOKE

"Maybe even the losers get lucky sometimes..." is a line from a Tom Petty song that seems to sum up this year's presidential campaign. As the summer party conventions near, it is becoming clear that Ronald Reagan and President Jimmy Carter have their respective party nominations wrapped up. Unless John Anderson, George Bush, or even Ted Kennedy can bring off an amazing come- from-way-behind-blitz,the American voters will have to choose between the lesser of two evils.

We'll either be in for more of the same wishy- washy indecision and lack of authority, or an ultrarightist who wants to invade Cuba and knows as much about Washington, D.C. as anyone who's lived in California most of their life would know: very little.

Almost 60 percent of the voters are disturbed with this choice, according to a recent Time magazine survey. This predicament could be avoided by a- few changes in our electoral system. The two-party system is hardly representative of the various political attitudes of Americans. This is proven every election year when several candidates from each party acquire a group of supporters for their campaign.

If all of those candidates can find enough support to run a campaign, then maybe they could represent different parties in a general election. John Anderson could be the Liberal. Republican, George Bush the Multi-National Corporation candidate, and Reagan could be the Republican's Republican. On the Democratic side, Jerry Brown would be the Moonbeam Liberal candidate, Kennedy the Old-Fashioned Liberal candidate, and Carter the Do-Nothing Democrat.

In order for any one candidate to win, coalitions between factions would have to be

created, and that would call for some compromise, and thereby a more representative system.

The primary system could also be reorganized. With 37 primaries now, the candidate with extra time and money has a better chance at getting nominated than does a hard-working member of Congress already struggling to fulfill his double duties as of- ficeholder and politician.

John Anderson already has thought of becoming a third party candidate, but this one possible alternative will not be enough to dash Reagan or Carter's chances.

Most research done on this campaign shows that the voters couldn't care less about candidates' issue positions, or how well they know the facts. Image, charisma, and apparent toughness seem to be the key factors in now the people vote.

Based on those factors, Reagan's image as an elderly actor turned politician should cancel out Carter's lack of toughness.

Recent times have been called the "Celebrity Era" by some, and if that is true, then maybe this will be Reagan's election. Unfortunately, celebrities know about as much as peanut farmers do about how Washington works. That's why the primary system, needs to be changed or maybe even done away with.

Coalitions could be put together at the conventions, and candidates could spend their time in useful ways, r^'^r *hn*y^>Uticking. Think of all the money that would have been saved if all of those goombahs hadn't been on the campaign trail.

The present electoral system forces the American voters to settle for mediocrity in a nation where improvement and achievement used to be foremost. Maybe the revision of such a stagnant system could return the United States to .those times.

Give the credit to inflation*

By ED CAMPION I am not an economist. Half the time when I hear Alfred Kahn

or Milton Friedman talk about problems with the economy I don't understand what they are saying. But by the same token, you don't need a degree in business to see some of the problems in the economy, or even problems in the solutions the federal government is trying out.

The biggest cause of inflation is credit. For the last few decades, this country has grown more dependent on credit. "" Loan companies have now realized that they cannot afford to extend credit to anyone who walks in the door, so they have pulled in the reins, freezing credit limits, new accounts, and imposing higher interest rates. The general public has reacted negatively to being told how much it can borrow, but it is going to have to stop reaching for the "golden ring.'' We must all stop trying to put ourselves into a higher class than our paychecks will allow.

While a good part of the cures for solving inflation will have to start at home, the government will have to make an equal attempt to slow down its spending, and as of right now the federal bureaucracy is not doing all it could.

President Carter has asked all businesses and firms to hold down their increases to 7l/z percent, but at the same time he has neither given any bonuses fo>r fhose f tr** jvthat do stay under the guidelines, nor has he done anything besides verbally attack those agencies that do not follow them. If the federal government does not institute price freezes, which would only provide temporary relief, then there is a need for some kind of incentive for good behavior to be offered. Without something along these lines, businessmen will not make any real attempt to control their price increases.

Many economists say it would help if people saved more of their money. What I don't undersatnd is how any government official can expect people to save money in an account that gets 5Vfe percent interest with inflation running at 13 percent. I realize there is no way banks could afford to raise their interest to 13 percent, but there is a definite need for some increase in savings account interest rates.

Another group that is going to have to make some sacrifices if inflation is going to be slowed down are the big investors on Wall Street whose greedy gambling can send the market on a roller- coaster ride. The most recent example of this is when Texas billionaire Nelson Bunker Hunt bought 19 million ounces of silver in hopes of cornering the market. AllHunt succeeded in doing was driving the price of silver up for a short period of time before it made a drastic drop. Bunker Hunt was hurt by his greed, but there are other groups who have pulled the same trick and gotten away with it. These people who put their own profit before the nation's economy will have to be watched. With world instability pushing inflation up, the last thing we need are some greedy in- dividuals trying to save themselves at the cost of the rest of the country.

What all this adds up to is that everyone is going to have to change the way they think about money. We will have to become more practical and less ego-oriented. We will also have to watch the government and big business to make sure they are doing their part. Together we can beat inflation, but if we ignore the problem, or expect someone else to solve it, we will soon be in the grips of a recession, the likes of which most of us cannot imagine.

THE BREEZE, Friday, April 18, i960,

Readers' Foru Senators block budgeting, show 'poor taste' To the editor:

It is our understanding that the purpose of the Student Government Association is to serve the students of James Madison University. The students are represented by SGA senators, who are both on-campus and commuter students. These senators should consider all sides of an issue and cast their votes in an unbiased manner.

Tuesday, April 15 was the last Senate meeting of the year; there was a large amount of business to Be conducted, such as approval of next year's budget and several new proposals. Two hours were spent approving next year's budget for SGA, another hour was spent reorganizing the allocation of funds that were to be spent out of the contingency account bef re the end of this year. This money was created to fund four organizations that showed a need for money before next year. These four

\ organizations asking for money were the Honor Council ($170), Interfraternity Council ($500), Panhellenic Council ($500), and tile Lutheran Movement (approximately $200). Un- fortunately, due to lack of quorum (two-thirds of the Senate present), only two of these organizations' proposals were decided upon, the other two were rudely denied the opportunity to have their proposals discussed and voted on. After the Honor Council and IFC's proposals were approved, two of the commuter Senators, Rod Shepard and Russel Fleetwood, abruptly walked out in the middle of debating Panhellenic's proposal for funding. We see it in very poor taste for these two senators to take it into their own hands to decide who does and does not deserve SGA money.

There was much con- troversy on whether or not to

fund IFC money to purchase a pamphlet to describe the Greek System to male freshmen, but the proposal passed. Panhellenic requested $500 to purchase rush handbooks that describe Panhellenic, rush rules, and a schedule of rush events. This information is mandatory for all girls interested in participating in rush.

One senator inquired why the Greeks waited so long before asking for money. The reply was that we were misled into believing that the SGA finance committee would

■front-end budget "IFC and Panhellenic. Since we would

not receive front-end budgeting, we had to ask for the money from the present contingency account. We feel that every group that meets the criteria to be considered for funding should receive the right to be heard. Vie SGA had quorum to

give money to the Bowling Club, a not yet affiliated group, the Catholic Ministry Movement, and other clubs and athletic groups. Why do two Senators feel they can take the allocation of funds into their own hands? By leaving, these two Senators prevented the Panhellenic Council a chance to receive

$500 for needed Rush handbooks, and 200 and some dollars for the Lutheran Movement, to go to a con- vention.

Because there will be no more SGA Senate meetings, and then unfinished business will remain unfinished, we would like to thank Rod and Russ for walking out; for their consideration and unbiased actions, and their sense of duty to the student body in looking out for the interests of all students. You know there are Greeks who are commuter students. SGA Senators Kathie Carrie and Terri Thuinma

Journalism adds to schisms

Exceptions needed To the editor:

As all JMU students are well aware, each spring we are required to pay a non- refundable readmission fee of $10 to come back to school in the fall. In addition, a $100 room deposit is required in order to assure us of a room if we wish to live on campus. This deposit can only be refunded before April 16, and very few exceptions are made, according to Bill Merck, Director of Finance.

I am a student at JMU concentrating in the pre physical therapy program. I have applied to two physical therapy schools, but unfortunately for me, one of these universities will begin informing applicants of our status after April 15, and the

%J>second school will tell us nothing prior to May 1.1 have no control over this situation, yet I am the one who has put out $110 to James Madison University when there is a possibility that I will not be here next fall.

Of course. I could have opted to not pay the $100. This would leave me without a room for next fall, if I do come back to school here. I spoke with Mr. Merck about getting the refund back after April 15, but he would not consider my request I realize that this university must be stringent in deciding when to refund the deposit, but, I feel more should be done to make exceptions to the rule. Many students who will be student teaching in the fall are in the same situation, not knowing if they will be placed in a school in this area or somewhere else*

I do not feel that JMU is so financially bound as to refuse refunding some students their deposit after the April 15 deadline. The number of room deposits made is one in-

dication of the number of remaining spaces available for incoming freshmen. By refunding the $100 to those of us who will not be here can only help to further deduce the number of rooms still available. Perhaps if more students in this predicament voiced their opposition, changes would be made. .

Headline incorrect To the editor:

The subtitle 'Doctor says weightlifting, running program **■«»*•* , W*^. *§&» article "JMU Student Suffers Heart Attack; Withdraws" (The Breeze, April 8) is incorrect and is contradicted in the article. The article was informative on heart disease risk factors and the need for aerobic type exercise, however, misleading headlines discredit The Breeze as a reliable source of information. Rose Ann Benson

To the editor: We are writing a response to

an article which appeared in the April 11 edition of The Breeze.This article concerned the Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship on this campus. As was stated, "IV is an in- terdenominational gathering of any interested Christians," yet the article continually contraposed the two groups, IV and CCM (Catholic Campus Ministry). This, in our minds, is a contradiction since the membership is often

overlapping. It is this type of journalism that contributes to the man-made schisms that exist between groups. If there is ever to be any common understanding and ac- ceptance, we must overcome the stereotyped impressions evident in this article. Not only does the injustice lie in stereotyping of a group, but there is to some degree an injustice in representing CCM's opinion by that of an individual, particularly when the opinion -remains

anonymous, as was the case in this article. It is our sincere hope that, as Paul the Apostle encourages us to do, we may recognize the common bond that exists among us, that of Jesus Christ: "Now I exhort you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all agree, and there be no divisions among you, but you be made complete in the same mind and in the same judgement." (I Cor. 1:10). Una Stalcup Divid J. Downs

By MIKE SHUTTY Once again it is election year: a time of

media chaos when rudimental political concepts are unearthed and artistically fashioned into a prismal array of age-old issues, a time of questions, answers and still more questions, and for the voters- the populace for which this democratic society was designed to serve-it is a time of weighing and evaluating alternatives.

ndeed, for all involved, it is a time of ecisiorir For the majority of students at JMU and

universities across the nation, the 1960 presidential race represents their first opportunity to take an active and meaningful part in the great democratic process which our country so courageously founded amidst the reigns of colonial suppression. We have laboringly learned throughout our educative yean that a voice not heard is like a thorn which underminds the overall political process- apathy is the contagion of democracy. We owe it to ourselves and as American citizens to insure that we proceed to take an active political stand and vote; it should be clear that such action is a necessity

Although seemingly simple, conscientious voting involves many complex variables with which the novice voter must become aware lest he be overcome by the huge commericaHzed campaign- packaging machines which characterize most of politics today. Social scientists have been telling us for years that physical appearance and audience similarity play decisive roles in swaying political opinions of the masses. However, it should notw surprising that these psychological variables are actively manipulated by campaign managers, since as a whole, our

entire economy revolves around the so- called salesman's scheme: social image guides our consumptive habits, our manner of waste, and even our behavior.

Most important one should be aware ot the psychological strategies which are employed to produce saleable candidates. Of course, my calling attention to these ploys is not meant to sound like some novel form of demeaning mind-rape is oc- «urrin0 "«» not an evil af faicr-it tojtimply the American way.

How often is this deliberate similarity engineering overlooked despite our acclaimed knowledge to these psychological variables? Most people act from gut feelings, especially college students, who for the most part are impressionistic and poorly lacking in political insight or realism. Thus, it seems pertinent mat the new voter should school himself on presidential selling techniques at least to the point that he realizes the possible influences which may bias bis judgement. Simply put, a little self-introspection might prove beneficial in delfniaung which variables may render you most vulnerable.

We may be powerless against the presentation of these convincing media images, but our faculties of reason, paired with our awareness of the influencing variables involved, provide a sound defense against the heavily com- mercialized persuasion strategies of the media-oriented campaigns of election year I960.

By carefully examining our likes and dislikes which have contributed to our tentative political decision, we take the first step towards responsible voting- something which we must all strive for.

U.S.-Soviet relations enter 'disturbing' phase 'We need more than a stick; we need a carrot,'

to deal with U.S.S.R., diplomat says

wtu *■■

By KELLY BOWERS The conflicts over trade, the SALT II treaty

and the Olympic games mark "a new and somewhat disturbing phase in the U.S. Soviet relations," according to the Deputy Director of the Foreign Service Institute.

Jack Matlock made this observation Monaay in a lecture sponsored by the Russian and Asian Studies Committee.

"U.S.-Soviet relations have taken a serious turn over the last four years," explained the well-travelled diplomat.

Matlock put these remarks in perspective by noting three trends in U.S.-Soviet relations since the late lMO's.

First, he noted, "Soviet power has increased markedly" in relation to the United States militarily and economically. He said the Soviet Union now has parity with the U.S. in nuclear Gwer and noted that the Soviet navy is a

jitimate challenge to the U.S. Navy. He dismissed the idea that this increase was

aided by the U.S. policy of detente by noting that "in percentage terms, most Soviet growth occured during the Cold War period."

- The policy of detente carried out under the last three administrations was beneficial to the U.S., Matlock claimed. Without relations and interaction, we would have had no sanctions to apply after the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan.

"The problem of dealing with the Soviet Union is not primarily a military one," he said. Military strength alone means we have in- sufficient means to induce them to follow a peaceful policy. "We need more than a stick," Matlock said, "we need a carrot."

U.S. power has declined relative to other nations since the 1940's according to Matlock. He explained this is "partly as a result of successful U.S. policy" in rebuilding foreign economies following World War II.

He saw other nations "catching up" as making U.S. power less necessary..

His third observation was that "in many

adversaries for the usual reasons such as territorial disputes, but rather because the Soviets "have no interest in preserving our way of life which we find essential."

He said the Soviet's view themselves as "the wave of the future" while seeing the United States as "doomed for the dustbin."

Again classifying U.S.-Soviet policy as successful, Matlock noted that U.S. policy has "tried to build on those elements wnere our interests were not in conflict."

Matlock repeatedly supported the ratification of SALT II."Both sides needed SALT and still need it. Strategic arms are an

"With the rise of Eurocommunism, the Soviets are not in control of world communism if indeed they ever were," he added.

From these three observations, Matlock went on to make five overviews.

To begin with, he claimed that "despite all critiques of U.S. policy, (it) has been successful. We have avoided nuclear war with

^ea^a other.".H* maintained thi& to be Jhe underlying concern in U.S.-Soviet relations.

He then noted that periods of U.S. restraint have "not produced a policy of restraint on the part of the Soviets." He instead saw a "com- pounding of defensive expenditures" by the

However Matlock said, "concrete, specific agreements have by and large worked vey well," adding that the Soviets "will generally abide by an agreement" He pointed to the trade and the SALT I treaty as examples of "concrete, specific agreements" that have worked.

But he warned, "the Soviet Union has been facing increasing problems at home" and this may have an effect on future interactions.

He summed these views up by saying "the U.S. and Soviet Union are basically and almost inevitably adversaries but with overlapping interests." w *

He explained that the two countries are not

"<• insurance policy,'' he said .. Matlock listed four Soviet priorites affecting

their dealings with the West.

First and foremost, be said, the Soviets have a priority "to maintain Communist Party rule at home. You might say this is the 'holy of holies' of priorities."

He rated the building of internal strength as the second priority, and the third as extending Soviet influence abroad.

The final priority, he claimed, is "an attempt of some sort to create an absolute security." • K» maintained ihat 3iis is a result of die Soviet's impression that they are "historically and politically vulnerable."

He noted that the one problem with this priority is it "means absolute insecurity for everyone else."

Consequently, Soviet creation of "absolute security" is often seen as "outright aggression."

Matlock saw the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan as an outgrowth of this need for security as well as an issue of prestige.

"They (the Soviets) did not want to face the blow to their prestige" that the collapse of the Marxist government in Afghanistan would have meant, he said.

Returning to the theme of "a new and somewhat disturbing phase" in U.S.-Soviet relations, Matlock noted four problem areas for the Soviet Union in the 1980's.

First he anticipated a "succession crisis," noting that most of the Soviet leaders are aging

and weakening in a system that discourages individual selection of a successor.

The second problem he sees for the Soviets is maintaining their economic growth. Their economy, he said, is growing "at a steadily smaller rate each year." He foresaw labor shortages and a decreased growth of productivity. He also speculated on the possibility of an oil deficit, forcing the Soviets to move from an oil exporter in the early 80's to an oil importer by the late 80's.

A third problem facing the Soviet Union in the 80's, said Matlock, is one on non-Russian nationalities.

He explained that the "Russians are barely 50 percent of the population" and that there is a "deep resentment* of this situation by non- Russians, whose numbers are continuously increasing.

"Very soon," he warned "Russians will find themselves in the minority."

The final serious problem Matlock saw was Soviet foreign policy. He cited the 4,000 mile border with China and the hatred of Russia by East Europeans.

The Soviets, he said, see the five nuclear powers of the world as "four nuclear powers vs. Russia."

The Soviets, Matlock concluded "don't see the world as all that favorable to Soviet interests."

SOVIETS see themselves as "the wave of the future" and the U.S. as "doomed for the dustbin," according to Jack Mattock.
