NO. 5 lie fling-tum ifllii WASHINGTON AND LEE UNIVERSITY LEX|NGTON.V|RGIN|A OCTOBER 5, 1989 '0' By James Lake Associate Editor CHARLOTTESVILLE — Saying that “the status quo is a guarantee of mediocrity,” President George Bush last week called on the na- tion’s governors “to put progress before partisanship, the future before the moment and our children before ourselves” in pursuit of excellence in education. Bush‘s remarks came on the sec- ond day of his Education Summit with Governors, only the third meet- ing between a sitting president and the states’ chief executives, at the University of Virginia. From early Wednesday afternoon through Thursday, Bush, the gover- nors and members of his cabinet met to hammer out a joint statement that called for nationwide educa- tional goals, greater flexibility for Sororities complete first rush By Cecily Tynan Staff Reporter Washington and Lee University’s three sororities completed their first rush Saturday, pledging a total of 25 upperclass women. As a result of last week’s infor- mal rush, 61 percent of all upper- class women are in sororities. This figure may continue to expand as sororities are allowed to openly ex- tend bids to upperclass women until December 6. “What happens with continuous open bidding is that a chapter can fill a chapter total, which has been set at 87. At any time, a chapter may extend a bid to a woman as long as it is filed with Panhelleriic within 24 hours,” said Wendy Wil- son, panhellenic publicity, housing and extension chairwoman. The number for chapter total is taken from the number of women each ' national sorority pledged in coloni- zation last January. The National Panhellenic Coun- cil, which governs all national so- rorities, has enacted this policy to maintain equally sized chapters on university campuses. “At the present time, this brings all three groups [Chi Omega, Kappa Alpha Theta and Kappa Kappa Ga- mma] within two to four of each other — so we're equal sizes,” said Wilson. Unlike fraternity rush, where some fraternities can get a large nu- mber of pledges and others may pledge only a few, the national rush rules for sororities are designed to prevent such discrepancies and com- petition. “Each group pledged girls they wanted rather than numbers," said Wilson. Informal rush went “extremely well,” according to Wilson, but will probably not be repeated at W&L. “We did it this year because we had upperclass women who didn’t choose to rush last January and we wanted to give them as much time to be active in a chapter as possible. The fact the 33 women signed up for informal rush shows that there was the need,” said Wilson. President George Bush addresses the nation’s governors, his cabinet and some 7,000 other calls for reform FD officers quit in power struggle By James Lake Associate Editor Fancy Dress Chairman Richard Spence and Vice Chairman Alex Hitz have both resigned, only days after they were appointed to those positions by the Executive Committee. Hitz, saying that “a situation which has started off so badly can only worsen,” submitted his resignation to the EC Monday. A returning SAB member with what he called “extensive” Fancy Dress experience, Hitz objected to the EC’s selection of Spence, who Hitz said has no experience with the SAB or Fancy Dress. Spence, who applied for the newly created position of auditor, said he decided to resign because he is “neither prepared nor willing to take the authority for this project when it is clear I will have my hands tied from day one.” _ Spence said SAB Chairman Charles Conklin and the states in the use of federal funds, a restructuring of educational systems on a state—by—state basis and annual reports on progress toward those goals. Speaking at University Hall on the UVa campus late Thursday morning, Bush quoted the six-year- old report of the Committee on Ex- cellence in Education and said its conclusion, that America is “a na- tion at risk,” is still true today. And Bush insisted greater federal funding will not decrease that risk. “Hard experience teaches that we are simply not getting our mon- ey’s worth in education,” said Bush. “Our focus must no longer be on resources. It must be on re- suits.” To that end, the president said, “a radical departure from tradition” is needed. He outlined five areas of reform — literacy, diversity, parental Wilson grants EC additional funds By Caroline Davis Staff Reporter Washington and Lee President John D. Wilson granted extra funds totaling almost $16,000 to the Executive Committee from a special contingency fund last week. According to Wilson, the funds are to aid the EC in allocating funds to such activities as the Ariel. The funds were needed because the EC carried the burden for the losses incurred by the Student Activities Board. If the extra money could not be found, then some of the funds for these activities would have to be cut, Wilson said. “We aren't speaking speaking of a reduction in funds, but literally cut out of the budget,” said EC President Willard Dumas.

He also said Hitz, Conklin and Entertainment Coordinator Michael Applebaum had already set the budget for the Fancy Dress Concert and told him they had already chosen a band. Hitz applied for the position of FD chairman but was named second-in-cornrnand to Spence, who had applied for the newly-created position of auditor. “I do not believe, after my own high school experi- eiice and close involvement with last year’s Fancy Dress, that anyone's high school experience or other non-Fancy Dress related experience can be considered as qualifying,” Hitz wrote. “The positions governing Fancy Dress, whether they be as chairman and vice chairman or as co—chair- men, are too closely intertwined and require too much teamwork for there not to he must, honesty and integri- ty between the two people involved,” wrote Hitz. After the selection of Hitz and Spence last week, SAB Chairman Charles Conklin met with the two FD officers to discuss their job descriptions. After that meeting, Spence said he felt the EC had vested total authority in him, but he said Hitz wanted total creative control and to report to Spence only when he was ready to make comrriitments. ‘‘I am not going to be the" financial scapegoat for something I’m clearly not going to have any control over," said Spence.

First, Bush said, “We must be a reading nation." He called for a more involved educational process in which “children must do more than identify names on a multiple- choice question” and which never promotes a student ‘-‘just because he or she has passed an arbitrary birth- day.” Second, America's schools should “be unafraid of diversity." While all schools should share mini- mum standards and a core curricu- lum, “the means by which that cur- riculum is taught and those goals met should be as diverse and varied as America itself,” he said. “Let us give " our schools and our teachers the freedom to do what they do best.” Third, Bush said, because chil- D Please see BUSH page 4 According to Wilson, activities _ By Chuck Broil such as the Ariel are a strong asset Staff Reporter SAB woes worsen EC hears charges, issues ultimatum By Melinda Conkling Staff Reporter After hearing charges that Student Activities Board Chairman Charles Conklin held secret meetings and planned to keep some information from the Executive Committee, the EC has given Conklin two weeks to implement reforms and alter SAB policies. “I think he realizes this is an ultimatum and he’s got to produce,” EC Secretary Chris Giblin said at Monday’s EC meeting. Vice President John Sheinberg agreed and told Conklin what changes the EC expects. “You need to take control of your organization and see to it that procedural changes are made, budgetary restraints are continued along the way they’re going,” Sheinberg said. “Every board member has an equal voice. Your meetings need to be run orderly and ratio- nally. Things need to be approved as a committee, not as individuals. If you can't make these changes, I beseech you, say so, because if you can’t, we will place someone else in your position." The EC‘s ultimatum was issued after Conklin at- tempted to explain his reasons for not implementing changes suggested by the EC. These changes in SAB procedure, which EC members said they listed at a Sept. 18 meeting with Conklin, included holding SAB meetings in an organized manner in the EC room; keeping complete minutes and attendance records for those meetings; and consulting the SAB’s treasurer before committing to any expenditures. Monday’s warning to Conklin followed complaints by SAB Treasurer Katie Duwel and Fancy Dress Chair- man Richard Spence. The EC heard those complaints in a special meeting Thursday night. At the Thursday meeting, Duwel charged that the SAB was holding “secret meetings” behind her back and that she was not present while any votes were taken. She said Conklin once told her to “shut up” when she asked him a question during an SAB meet- ing. “My hands are tied,” she said. “We have no group discussions being made. There are no decisions, no votes, no anything. I don't know what’s going on. There’s a lot of covert activity, they’re making deci- sions without the entire board.” Also Thursday, Spence told the EC that he could not work with the SAB “as it stands." He said “it has become plainly apparent to me” that there are problems in the board. “Any committee that is subordinate to the EC and excludes their treasurer, faculty representative, and EC El Please see SAB page 3 Process is slow for new houses Frank Parsons, Interfraternity Coun- cil President Kevin Nash, alumni Ross Singletary and Jeff Kelsey, to the school, and should be continued.

Assessing relations between police and the fraternities, Beard said, “This year has been the best in my more than 20 years on the force.“ Also, none of the fraternities made any complaints about the police’s conduct since the end of the formal rush period which ended Sept. 23. Also, Tad Kelley, the IFC’s Public Relations Chairman, reported that Alcohol Awareness Week will begin Sunday, Oct. 15. Kelley said the Health Education Committee, which is sponsoring the week, will conduct an alcohol awareness seminar. All fraternity freshmen must attend. In addition, Kelley said, the committee will sponsor two band parties, one at the student pavilion and one at the General Headquarters restaurant. IFC President Kevin Nash reminded the fraternities of the IFC's regulation that requires houses to provide “altemative beverages” at all parties, as well as to maintain a more strict entrance policy. Nash said each fraternity should not allow people to leave the party with open containers of alcohol, and to keep the noise level as low as possible. Nash also restated the IFC's policy on how many parties a fraternity may have at its house each month. A house may have four weekend parties at the house, and an additional two Wednesday night parties at the house, rather than simply four parties per month, as was reported last week. The IFC also considered, but did not act on, a proposal to contribute money for a band to perform at the student pavilion during Christmas Weekend. The Student Activities Board, because of its current financial problems, has considered cancelling the concert, according to IFC Secretary Gordon Dekuyper.

OCR::/Vol_089/WLURG39_RTP_19891005/WLURG39_RTP_19891005_002.2.txt OPINION The SABs long. and winding road The S, A and B keys on The Ring-tum Phi’s computer -;«_’ are wearing out in a hurry. The resignations of the two I students most responsible for Washington and Lee’s biggest social event, the Fancy Dress Ball, are only the latest turns in a series of crises to hit W&L’s Student Activities Board. "f Rarely has a single subject commanded more space in The Ring-tum Phi and more time in Executive Committee meetings. And the events of the past few days indicate there are still many miles left on what has already been a rough road. After the controversy of 1988 (remember the “Reconcil- =5‘! iation Ball” that was anything but?), everyone was desperately hoping for a smoothly run, well-received FD in 1989. And we thought we had one — until the bills .¢,;.— came in. Like that Visa bill at the end of the month, the fare for W&L’s midnight excursion on the Orient Express seemed much higher than anyone — including SAB leaders — had expected. The EC was less than pleased. With the threat of administration intervention hanging over its head, the EC tried to meet last year’s expenses without eliminating this year’s budget entirely. As the EC moved in, the already 1* cliquish SAB became even more so. A “we-they” mentality developed. A crisis was guaranteed. The crisis became public when SAB Treasurer Katie Duwel and FD Chairman Richard Spence came forward with reports of exactly what the EC did not want to hear. .., ._ _,, u .1, .._., .4; ; A ‘-3 i" 4.4 J 5‘ business as usual in the SAB office — the same business that led to a debt that now exceeds $23,000. Of course, there is far more to this mess than Conklin’s failure to implement the needed changes. There is the dirty, cynical question of whether the fact that Spence, Dumas and junior EC Rep. John Fialcowitz are roommates had anything to do with Spence’s appointment. Such ugly suspicions combined with the cliquishness of the SAB and Spence’s lack of FD and SAB experience to make his task an impossible one. First, the roommate factor. Any upperclassman should know that Dumas bent over backwards last spring to avoid even the appearance of bias. When the EC voted in favor of a special election after the president-elect withdrew from W&L, the vote was 6-5. Dumas abstained. At the time, it appeared his abstention might have cost him what was rightfully his — the presidency. Fortunately, the EC reconsidered, but not until Dumas had proven that his commitment to impartiality is beyond reproach. '~ ’ That commitment continued in the discussion of who should chair this year’s Fancy Dress Ball. The EC received only one application — that of Alex Hitz. As he explains elsewhere on this page, he was the only applicant - for any FD position with SAB and FD experience. What ; he does not say is that Spence, while still in high school, organized two Key Club conventions, both involving larger budgets and more people than Fancy Dress could ever have. Dumas, Fialcowitz and the rest of the EC wisely were not limited by their applicant pool. Ever-mindful of last year’s problems, they looked for »the most qualified, most : organized person. And, in an 8-4 decision, they chose Spence. Yes, Fialcowitz and Dumas voted. No, their votes did not matter — only four EC members felt Hitz was more qualified than Spence, not enough to swing the vote his way. And, no, their friendship with Spence did not f affect the EC’s debate or the votes of other members. As ' Secretary Chris Giblin said, “That didn’t even enter into the discussion.” What next? First, the EC will try to fill the now-vacant fl FD positions. We encourage all interested students to apply —- whether or not they have SAB experience. And we encourage Conklin to remember well the words of EC ,.

Fancy Dress officers jump ship By Alexander Hitz EDITOR'S NOTE: Alexander Hitz was named Fancy Dress vice-chairman by the Executive Committee last week but resigned Monday. This is his letter of resignation. By Richard Spence EDITOR'S NOTE: Late last month, Richard Spence was named Chairman of the 1990 Fancy Dress Ball. He resigned from that position Wednesday. It is with deep regret that I must resign as vice-chairman of Fancy Dress 1990. However, in good conscience, all things considered, I do not feel that the Executive Comrnittee’s decision to name me vice—chairman without my previous consent — or even an application for that position — is one that I can support by accepting the position. Also, considering the circumstances following the Executive Committee's decision of September 25, and my experience so far with the current Fancy Dress chairman, I am sure that a situation that has started off so badly can only worsen. The positions governing Fancy Dress, whether they be as chairman and vice-chairrnan, or as co-chairmen, are too closely intertwined and require too much team—work for there not to be trust, honesty, and integrity between the two people involved. After hearing of Thursday night’s Executive Committee meeting, which the current Fancy Dress chairman attended, I can honestly say that I do not believe such a rapport exists at present or can ever exist in the future. ‘ I do}-.not ‘feel. that the It is indeed not the Vice- EC’s decision to Chairmanship itself which I find so unappealing. Had I been asked by the Executive Committee whether I name me Vice chaff. would be willin to ace t a . position other thin the on? for man wlthout my pre- which I applied. I would have vious consent is one answered affirmatively, provided the person under whom I would be I can support‘ working has more relevant — AIexandef experience than I do. By relevant experience in this instance, I mean previous, extensive involvement with last year's Fancy Dress, in addition to participation in the Fancy Dress Steering Comrriittee, and probably Student Activities Board experience also. I do not believe after my own high school experience, and close involvement with last year's Fancy Dress, that anyone’s high school experience or other non-Fancy Dress related experience can be considered as qualifying. For Fancy Dress, I do not believe that appointing individuals to positions for which they have not applied is an action done in the student body’s best interest. It is impossible for people who have never worked on Fancy Dress to know this. I find it very regrettable that the situation has turned out so badly and so grossly out of proportion regardless of whatever good intentions were involved in the original decision-making process. A tradition as important as Fancy Dress at Washington and Lee should not be in the hands of someone who does not know its intricacies intimately. I am also sorry that I will not be involved in Fancy Dress this year. Had I not really wanted to take an active role in Fancy Dress and thought that I could make an integral contribution to its success, I would not have applied for a position “Experience” is a term used to describe relative knowledge a person or an organization may have of a specific task or position. Over the past eight days, I have found that the Student Activities Board has developed its own definition of “experience,” one which you may be as confused and dismayed over as I am. On the night of Sept. 29, I interviewed for the position of auditor for the 1990 Fancy Dress Ball. The Executive Committee, in its “infinite wisdom," decided to overlook the applicants for chairman and vice chairman, and appointed me chairman. I’ll be the first to admit to you that their methods of appointment are somewhat callous. However, I met with the SAB chairman Tuesday afternoon, eager to begin to work with the FD and SAB committees. What I learned over the next 24 hours or so was that I had, in effect, been named “captain” of a ship that had sunk before it left drydock. I was so shocked by what I was told by the SAB’s Charles Conklin, speaking as»“Chair‘rnan of his Board,” that I left our midnight-2:30 a.m. - meeting with a list of every one ‘of his notable quotes. What ‘he (and then- Vice‘ Chairman Alex Hitz) said that evening speaks for itself and will provide ample examples of the fundamental problem with the current board. I was told by Conklin: - the SAB would not be running Fancy Dress this year as it had in the past few years. - the current SAB treasurer, Katie Duwel, was not working out - she is left out of most major board decisions. Katie called up EC Vice President Jon Sheinberg whenever we decided anything important. - the board had planned meetings to coincide with weekly IFC meetings so they could keep the SAB faculty advisor, Dean Leroy C. “Buddy” Atkins, from attending SAB board activities. - the board operated without the cooperation of their EC representative last year, and this year the relationship was tentative. There is a feeling that the EC does not trust us and we certainly don't trust them. - the SAB felt “many of the things that go on in this (SAB) office are none of the EC’s business. They are confidential discussions.” Also, Alex Hitz told me: - “I have already chosen the people I wanted to work with, and you are not my choice. I have worked out with Charles and Michael [Applebaurn, Concert Coordinator] the budget for FD Thursday night, and we’ve basically chosen the band and budgeted our expected loss.” '- he would not accept “a VICE chairmanship,” and, if I was not willing to compromise on the position, he would use his friendship with 1989 FD Chairwoman Liz Smith to keep her from helping me and from turning over to me her files on last year’s ball, which are the only un—altered documents available and are housed at her residence. (The files in the FD desk of the SAB office represent, in Conklin’s words, “creative bookkeeping," and, in my words, represent fraud, gross mismanagement and, dare I say it, lies...)

James Lake's ideas on how to fight terror- ism (MY VIEW, Sept. 21, 1989) certainly sound terrific; after all, talking about terrorisim is much like being ‘tough’ on crime: it is an easy position to take and failure to do so is the political (and social, here at W&L) equiva- lent of seppuku. Worse, one’s friends and fellow citizens may call you a coward, an ap- peaser and a wimp if you don’t. However, I must disagree with Mr. Lake because the inevi- table outcome of his proposal is, I suspect, not in the best interests of this country. Mr. Lake's idea is this: the American hos- tages in Lebanon must be freed; their captors require Iranian encouragement and support to survive; Iran must sever this relationship; U.S. military action against vital Iranian oil facilities at Kharg Island will accomplish this goal; this military action will “eventually .. succeed” with acceptable losses for our side; failure to support this is cowardly and dishonorable. I take issue with each assumption. Mr. Lake tells us his plan is simple. This is how it will work: the President announces that U.S. forces will begin bombing Iranian oil facilities at Kharg island in 48 hours, unless all American hostages are set free. If the hostag- es are not_freed then the bombers roll. If the Iranians are still unimpressed then we repeat. Eventually, we move inland and bomb the Iranian mainland itself. The Iranian.leadership', logically, will abhor bloodshed, and capitulate. Doesn't this sound great so far? Unfortunate- ly, I see a few problems. First, why give a 48-hour advance warning, LETTERS unless you wish to alert Iranian anti-aircraft defenses and waste our pilot’s lives? Second, Mr. Lake’s faith in strategic bombing, bom- bardment intended to break an adversary psy- chologically rather than rriilitarily, is not shared by many military strategists, historians and sol- diers. Strategic bombing did not break the will of the North Vietnamese people or their government, nor did it succeed against the British and the Germans in World War II. But no matter, bombing Kharg doesn’t work, we will bomb Iran itself, the Iranian government will panic and then collapse. Mr. Lake doesn’t suggest what we should bomb when we reach the mainland. I wonder if he intends to blitz- krieg Tehran? He also grants the Iranian lead- ers a logic and rationality which they show no signs of possessing. Let’s not assume that all people are motivated by the same things Am- ericans are. Perhaps the Iranians like to take hostages (they have done it before). Also, per- haps their government needs a foreign enemy to distract their people's attention away from problems at home. If so, then Iran might wel- come a U.S attack. Don’t forget that Iran and Iraq have recently ended their own 8-year war, one of the bloodiest conflicts of this century. Iran showed no reluctance to waste the lives of of their citizens in furtherence of political ob- jectives. Before we endorse Mr. Lake's idea, let's be sure we recognize what the implications are. War. That is what he suggests. That is what bombing is all about. I do not say that military action in furtherence of direct U.S national» security interests is never necessary. Clearly, it Student reevaluates U.S.— Iran hostage issue sometimes is, but I cannot believe our vital national interests are threatened by the exis- tence of some fanatic kidnappers and their small number of American hostages, somewh- ere in Lebanon. Yes, this is a tragic event and .we should and will continue to seek their re- lease. But war? Is that the price we’re willing to pay? I doubt that. I think we should remember one more fact. The U.S only recently ended hostilities in the Persian Gulf. Do we really want to return to that, and can we afford to (this country of ours is darrm near broke, or has no one noticed)? Finally, if the American people think the agonies of 10 15 hostages justifies a war then they will, presumably, say so. In that case the U.S military will follow orders and kill Irani- ans. Some American, who can saw how many, will die. Let’s not kid ourselves, that's what will happen, but if that is the national will, so be it. Let’s just be sure it's worth it. I recently had the dubious honor to spend a total of eight months, courtesy of the Depart- ment of Defense, 'In the same miserablre part of the world that Mr. Lake wishes to attack. Now, I have no idea what plans Mr. Lake has after graduation, but I suspect they don't in- clude personal participation in the attacks he supports.

Schroer—Lamont believes that since the arrival of sororities, upperclass women have shifted their attentions toward the Greek system and have left Trident without leadership. As a result, the group is desperately seeking “women with energy who are willing to devote three to eight hours per week," said Schroer—Lamont. She predicts that without dedicated students, the organization will not be able to sustain itself. Schroer—Lamont also realizes that even if Trident is able to assemble an executive board, its intentions will still be subject to change. Although the group hopes to continue sponsoring its social events, “Winter Slos ” and “Confetti's," this year's winter celebration may not be possible, since no dues were collected this fall. Schroer-Larnont said Trident's focus may shift toward different activities. Possibilities for the coming year include working with the sororities to acquire a house they could share. Trident would also like to reintroduce ideas for events such as art exhibits, receptions, and lectures, Schroer-Lamorrt said. SAB from page 1 representative from their activities does not in my opinion deserve to serve the EC,” said Spence. Spence also said Conklin once told SAB members that much of what they discuss is “none of the EC’s business.” After hearing from Spence and Duwel, EC members expressed their own concerns about SAB proce- dures. President Willard Dumas said, “The attitudes that I've experi- enced with this board have been blatantly adversarial. " Junior Rep. Tom Hatcher said, “My main concern is with regards to the student allocation of funds. I have not seen the leadership I ex- pected, the people I have faith in have been alienated.” Several EC members said the EC cannot absorb another financial loss like the one suffered by the SAB last year, which Dumas said now exceeds $20,000. “We have exhausted good faith in these people. We received assur- ances two weeks ago. Why must I continue to extend good faith to subcommittees of the EC," Dumas asked. Junior Rep. John Fialcowitz ex- pressed tiie same opinion. “We can't justvtrust that these atrocities won't happen again, ” he said. Thursday’s special meeting ended when the EC adjourned with- out making any final decision. Conklin was present at that meeting but, when EC members asked him about specific charges, he repeatedly told them, “I don't recall.” After the meeting, he refused to comment on the allegations made against him. Conklin decided to present his case at the Monday night meeting. He apologized for his previous si- lence and said that he wanted to stay “in power, chairman of the SAB.” “If you give me a couple of weeks I’ll work it all out,” he said. When asked whether he ever said some SAB discussions or activ- ities were “none of the EC’s busi- ness,” Conklin said it is not the SAB’s policy to keep anything hid- den from the EC. Conklin said the SAB’s faculty advisor, Dean Leroy C. “Buddy” Atkins, was not present at the SAB Board meetings because Atkins “in- timidated one of my Board mem- bers. I felt like I shouldn't exclude him but at the same time he shouldn't be in all of our meetings if he’s going to hinder that person’s speaking up or taking part in the meetings.” Conklin also said he can only listen to one person at a time during a meeting and may have asked Duwel to be quiet while another person was speaking. But he said he . wants every SAB member to con- tribute to discussions. Third-year law Rep. David An- thony warned Conklin that SAB board member revisions will be made in the immediate future if changes are not made. “I guess the bottom line is, do you understand if changes aren’t made that we will take action, ” said Anthony. “Certainly,” said Conklin. In other business Monday night, James Rambeau, chairman of the Student Financial Relations Committee, reported that because of national policies Harris Teeter and WalMart are required. to request identification from check writers. WalMart representatives said that they would contact their national headquarters to see if the identification process could be waived for W&L students. The GHQ Lacrosse Club and Mock Convention representatives discussed budget requests. Gary McCullough of Amnesty International asked that the EC review their decision of not granting funds to Anmesty. A motion to grant a budget request of $140 .failed. Also, the EC reported that there were sufficient applications received for the Student Health Committee. Applications are still being accepted for the Library Advisory, Registrar & Scheduling, University Athletics and Financial Aid committees. Interviews for these positions will be held Monday at 8 pm. The Ring-tum Phi, October 5, 1989 Trident needs help HOUSES from page 1 {.7 MenT6riaI service Phi Delta Theta's application will not be approved until the fraternity complies with the university's hous- ing standards, and is off probation. Atkins said the project will start on time in spring 1990. However, Nash said questions that must be answered by Lexington zoning offi- cials, may hold things up. Bass Construction is working as a general contractor for the project, helping the committee provide cost estimates for each house and the Renaissance Program in general. Nash said the committee has spent a good deal of time comparing new cost estimates to the originals. Atkins said plans for reconstruc- tion will work on a rotating basis. “After the demolition crew fin- ishes at one house, they will move on to the next as the construction crew begins at the first house,” Atkins said. Because of that schedule there may be a number of fraternity houses unsuitable for living, eating, parties, and rush functions once the project is under way. The committee has not yet submitted any final pro- posals regarding these issues. Some students may be housed in empty rooms in Gaines Hall, Woods Creek, and other university housing, but the rest will have to live with friends off—campus, Atkins said. Nash said students will probably eat in Evans Dining Hall. No decisions have been made regarding parties or nrsh functions for houses during their renovation. set for next week i_I__1_L_e_e Chapel From the W&L News Offlce A memorial service honoring General Robert E. Lee will be held at noon Thursday, Oct. 12, in Lee Chapel on the Washington and Lee campus. The ceremony will mark the 119th anniversary of the passing of Lee, who served as president of Washington College from 1865 to 1870. The day’s activities will begin at _9330 3-In-. the time of Lee's death in 1870, when the bells in the cha- pel will toll 19 times — equivalent to a l9—gun salute. At noon, the Liberty Hall Volunteers, a group of W&L students and employees inter- ested in Civil War reenactment, will march from Washington Hall on the W&L campus to Lee Chapel. The memorial service will begin at noon in Lee Chapel. I.

The service is sponsored by the Liberty Hall Volunteers. Ponderings of political poppycock THE SBAR SIDE By Jon Sbar As a journalist in a democratic society, it is my duty to keep readers up to date on important political issues such as the latest developments in President Bush’s ongoing war against drugs: yesterday a U.S. army regiment was ambushed by P.C.P. paratroopers in the Heroin Hills of Southern Colombia. The deadly P.C.P. paratroopers, who were armed with syringes, hallucinations and German Beer Hops wiped out the whole regiment in less than an hour. According to government sources who are so bored that they keep up with these kinds of things, this was the worst battle since the July Marijuana Massacre in which three U.S. Navy air craft carriers were sunk by a powerful Steroid Submarine. At this point, careful readers with news oriented brains should be asking six obvious questions: 1) Why is President Bush waging a war against inanimate objects? 2a) Shouldn’t the war be against "illegal drugs"? 2b) What does the president have against cough syrup? 3a) What kind of drugs was the writer using at the time that this article was written? 3b) Cough Syrup? 4) Why doesn’t someone invent grey beer? 5) In reference to questions 1-4, who cares? like a good time to move onto another exciting political issue such as the one involving New York Mayor Ed Koch. You remember Mayor Koch don't you? The first American politician who spent the majority of his time in office roaming the streets of New York asking arbitrary people the same question. Mayor Koch (speaking to an arbitrary person): "What am I doing?" The Arbitrary person: "Roaming the streets of New York asking rhetorical questions when you could be doing something productive like painting the Statue of Liberty." Getting back to major political developments, Koch was recently defeated in his bid for re- election. Of course, the fact of his defeat is not surprising since Koch was thought to be something of a weirdo in a city where there are lobotornized rnirnes dressed in drag on every street corner. As I shock my brain with high voltage creativity electrodes in an attempt to fabricate (I mean remember) another major political issue it just occurred to me that most major political issues involve something boring like the trade deficit or farm subsidies. I guess this explains why many newspapers no longer cover major political developments. These papers have discovered that the American public wants to viewers and uses it to have Naked Putt-Putt Golf Parties in mega-sized mansions, not the General Accounting Office. The American public wants to read about President Bush's recent fishing trip, not the Middle East. The American public wants to read about famous drug-addicted actors getting admitted to the Betty Ford Clinic, not Gorbachev. The American Public wants to read about violent crime, not the Senate. And most of all, the American public (especially the American public that is now reading this article) wants to read about books written by the victims and perpetrators of violent crime. Well reader, if that's what you really want, okay. Dallas — A suburban housewife who was repeatedly raped, stabbed and trampled upon by a coalition group of Hells Angels, Ku Klux Klansman, and Skin Heads is now in the process of writing a book about her ordeal. Her book, "It’s a Violent World But Someone’s Got To Live In It" is scheduled for publication in late January. In the meantime the Angels-Klan-Skinhead coalition, currently out on bail, have all become Born Again Hari Krishnas. The Coalition, which has formed a monastery in Oregon, is also writing a book about their experiences, "From Killing to Krishna, the Journal of Reformed Renegades." Because I sense that this article is killing Since we have exhausted the subject of the President's continuing "War on Drugs," it seems SPENCE- from page 2 I won’t bore you with the rest of the details, but suffice it to say there are plenty more. For example, I suggested that, if I were to take the responsibility for this entire project financially, there would be an end to charge accounts at virtually every store in Lexington, including the Virginia ABC Store, East Lex, Willson-Walker House, McCambell Inn, etc., for extraneous “fringe benefits" for “the Board." Charles and Alex both were enraged by that idea. They claimed these accounts never existed and I was unreasonable not to expect some fringe benefits be awarded to “the Board” for a job well done. I don’t think blatant mismanagement of student funds resulting in consecutive losses — the SAB “experience” of Fancy Dress ’89 lost over $20,000, though the balance sheet reports a net profit of over $1,200 — is a job well done. Further, there was no reason for these two officers to be defensive about my allegations because there are no written records left to account for these expenses. They disappeared in the “creatively kept” closing statements of FD 1989 housed in the “creatively run” SAB executive office. I am not blaming the current SAB hierarchy for last year’s problems, although these people were all a part of that situation. The fundamental problem lies in the operating premise of the SAB. This sub-committee ignores its EC representatives, its faculty advisor, and its treasurer. It is responsible for $40,000-plus in student body funds and acts as parent of the FD Steering Committee, given roughly By Merrill Watson TALKBACK read about wild television preachers like Jim Baker, who takes money from poor television brain cells, $50,000 in student body funds. Its chairman claims that its business is “confidential.” The board presented me with what I would honestly call extorted temis but will refer to as a “package deal,” the bottom line being my cooperation with their system in exchange for their support operating FD. The SAB treasurer has thrown up the warning signs countless times before. This past weekend she and I threw them up one more time. The EC decided Monday that the circumstances listed above warranted no change and voted 7-4 to give this committee yet another in their long line of “fresh starts." This same EC decided I had the best past experience to restore credibility to the operation of Fancy Dress. Their decisions travel in circles, I desperately need to stop writing before it’s too lat leading nowhere — like the current SAB. I am neither prepared nor willing to take the authority for this project when it is clear I will have my hands tied from day one.’ Committing academic suicide and/or withdrawing from school should not be a part of student-run entertainment, yet they have all played a role in the not-so-distant’ past of FD chairmen. I wish the EC a lot of luck as this operation unfolds, and I hope the administration doesn't use this year’s FD red ink to write the epitaph to student-run entertainment at W&L. My resignation as chairman of 1990 Fancy Dress Ball was delivered Wednesday morning. What do you think of sororities’ having Homecoming representatives? Nelson Teague, ‘90, Roanoke, Va. — “I’m bent out of shape because none of them asked me to escort them." Brooke Tinley, ‘91, Timonium, Md. — “It’s too unconventional.

Bush also promised his commit- ment to education would not end when he left Charlottesville. “This has been historic, and I pledge to you my determination 1.0 follow up,” he said. Notes - As the nation's governors were introduced Thursday morning prior to the president's speech in Univer- sity Hall, two executives seemed to receive the greatest applause — host Gerald Baliles and Massachusetts’ Michael Dukakis. Dukakis and New York’s Mario Cuomo commanded \the greatest amount of media atten- tion. - Diversity and irreverence were the story about 200 yards down UVa’s Front Lawn from the presi- dent's podium, where more than 300 protestors lined up behind wire fence. Their chants, barely audible where Bush was speaking, included “Racist, sexist, anti—gay, President Bush, go awayl" and “Less fill- ing — Tastes great!” Signs held up by the crowd supported ideas as diverse as privatizing education, the Equal Rights Amendment and victo- ry for the Sandinista government over rebels in Nicarggua. “We” Wire Flowers World Wide Flowers Fresh and Dried For All Occasions GOLDEN “CORRAL .. . .. .. . .. .. . 2‘ 3. xiv 2 3. ., .' .. .- 9* . ,.

Follo said the Outing Club is ' not a club in the sense that students , join and pay membership dues, but instead is an organization that plans 4 trips and activities and also provides equipment for students who wish to “ do things on their own. The club's . equipment room, located in Room 109 of Baker Dormitory, has tents, sleeping bags, stoves, backpacks, V canoes, kayaks, rock-climbing equip- ment and spelunking equipment available for students to borrow. Students may also rent canoes for a small fee. According to Follo, the club is divided into a number of special interest sections, including paddling, fly fishing, hiking and backpacking, rock climbing, biking (both moun- tain and road racing) and environ- mental sections. “There is a strong corps of stu- dents active in each section,” Follo said, adding that there are also stu- dents who “come and go.” On Wednesday, the club is sponsoring a hike up House Moun- tain with Wilson, a trip that will be “a great chance for students‘ to get to know him outside of the formal setting of W&L," Follo said. The group will depart at 2 p.m. from the Outing Club office, and interested students should sign up on the bul- letin board outside of the club’s equipment room. The club also has an exciting expedition planned for Oct. 13-15, when students will travel to the Mount Rogers National Recreation Area and hike a series of trails, in- cluding an extensive section of the Appalachian Trail.

Most of the hiking should be easy to moderate in difficulty, Follo said. students should wear sturdy shoes and come prepared for wet and/or cold weather, he said. Interested students should contact Gray Rand. The club’s paddling section has scheduled a white-water rafting trip down the Gauley River, and stu- dents interested in this excursion should contact Mark Lubkowitz. Ac- cording to Follo, the rafting trips are led by an experienced outfitter, and the club simply provides trans- portation to the river. In addition to special trips, the club’s sections offer regular instruc- tion in canoeing, kayaking, fly fish- ing, proper use of camping equip- ment and backpacking skills. In con- junction with the W&L biology de- partment, the club offers instruction in plant and insect identification and sponsors occasional “ecology walks.” Students active in the bik- ing section take regular rides, while students in the paddling section provide kayaking instruction every Tuesday and Thursday nights from 6-8 in the old pool in Doremus Gym.

Playing in their first two conference games of the season, the Generals downed Roanoke 4-1 on Saturday, and beat Hampden—Sydney 2-0 yesterday. On Saturday the Generals’ four goals were scored by three freshmen. Freshman Mike Mitchem, who has scored four goals and dished out four assists in the last four games, netted two goals, while classmates Mike Hill and Todd Walker each scored their first collegiate goals. Senior Patrick Brown, who has not directly figured in the scoring since the Generals’ second game, registered three assists on Saturday and scored a goal yesterday against Harnpden-Sydney. Brown now leads the ODAC in SPORTS Soccer kicks way to tough ODAC w with 11 points, is in second place. Roanoke, the defending ODAC champions, came to Lexington on a gray and drizzly Saturday afternoon with a 3-4 record. W&L picked up momentum with two goals in the latter part of the first half. The Generals took a 1-0 lead at 9:05 when Brown assisted Hill, who sent the ball past a prone Maroon goalie. Just over five rriiniites later W&L was awarded a penalty kick after a Roanoke defenseman used his hands to stop a shot. Mitchem took the free kick and delivered a high, right-footed shot inside the left post to give the Generals a 2-0 halftime advantage. In the second half W&L closed the door on Roanoke with their third goal at 39:20. Freshman sweeper Greg Williams tapped a direct kick from midfield to Brown, who crossed the ball deep into the left side of the penalty box. Mitchem collected the pass with his chest and directed the ball to the lower right comer of the net. scoring with 13 points. Mitchem, The Ring-tum Yesterday, W&L improved its record to 4-4 against visiting Hampden—Sydney (5-4, 2-2 in the ODAC). The Tigers were ranked tenth in the South Region of Division III. The game was scoreless until Brown trapped a deflected ball in the penalty box and launched a shot amid a pack of Tigers into the back of the net at 7:51. Although Harnpden-Sydney only managed to get off two first half shots, W&L was fortunate to have a 1-0 lead at intermission. Many of the Tigers’ would—be shots were well wide of the net and they blew their two breakaway opportunities by opting to shoot around a charging Jon Bull, who has emerged as the Generals starting goalie, instead of dribbling around him. The Generals took a 2-0 lead 21 minutes into the second half. Mitchem sent a crossing pass from the left side to the front of the net.

Yet, they were unable to convert as the ball sailed harrnlessly over the crossbar. Bull, in his third straight start in goal, gained his second shutout of the season, and made five saves. Pringle played for the final 12 minutes and picked up a save. With the win, the Generals evened their record on the season at 5 4-4 and moved to 2-0 in conference play. The Generals’ next game is against Mary Washington this Saturday at 3 at Liberty Hall Field. By Jay Plotkln Sports Editor For a while last Saturday, it looked like the armual Washington and Lee-Randolph-Macon football game was going to be the typical nail-biter that Generals faithful have come to expect between the teams. That illusion lasted for the better part of the first quarter at Day Field in Ashland. Then, the Generals’ record setting quarterback went to work. On W&L’s second possession, senior Phillip Sampson went to the air. His first pass, to junior split end Craig Irons, gained 13 yards and a first down. His second pass, also to Irons, was good for 40 yards deep into Yellow Jacket territory. Irons was one step from turning the big gainer into a 65-yard touchdown, but he was caught by the last man who had a shot at the 20 yard line. This drive stalled as the Generals elected to go for a first down on fourth and 10 instead of kicking a field goal. Sampson's pass intended for Irons was just ‘in. 1.

The Generals defense forced the Yellow Jackets to kick after just three plays, and sophomore defensive end/punt returner Scott Williamson got the Generals moving on the return. Junior tailback Mason Pope kept the Yellow Jackets reeling with a 21-yard run, and Sampson followed that with «a 26-yard completion to junior slot back Carl Gilbert that gave the Generals first down and goal at the R—MC 10. After two Pope carries put the ball at the four, Sampson rolled right and found senior tight end Bob Martin all alone in the end zone for a touchdown and a 6-0 W&L lead. Junior Carter Quayle’s extra point kick was blocked. On the first drive of the second quarter, set up by another Williamson punt return, this one covering 22 yards, the Generals got started on the ground behind senior Russell Crosby and Pope.

Martin’s 12-yard rettun gave W&L the ball at the R-MC 27, but the Generals fumbled it away. Brandewiede, still reeling from Williamson's hit, immediately returned the favor, being intercepted by freshman linebacker Paul Mallos at the R-MC 46. Sampson promptly hit Gilbert for a 28-yard gain on the left sideline, and Pope kept the offense rolling, rambling 18 yards off right tackle for a touchdown and a 26-0 W&L lead. The Generals defense gave the offense one last opportunity to get on the board again when senior linebacker_ Mike Pack intercepted Brandewiede, but the Generals ran out the clock, going into the locker room up 26-0. In the second half, after a scoreless third quarter, W&L increased its lead to 33-0 on Pope's third touchdown of the day, this one coming on a 2-yard run. One black mark for the Generals on the day was injuries.

After losing the opening game of the match, 15-11, the Generals rallied behind strong play from sophomores Marcy Brown and Mena McGowin to win the next three games by scores of 15-7, 15- 12, and 17-15. Brown had a leading .353 attack percentage in the victory while McGowin registered 18 kills. Freshman Leslie Hess and junior Lisa Jay had good performances last week as Hess _led the team with 34 digs, and Jay turned in a tearn-leading 13 service aces. The Generals struggled in other competition last week with losses to Shenandoah 15-11, 15-5, Mary Washington 15-7, 15-10, and Ferrum 15-12, 15-3. Overall, the Generals are now 2-5, 1-0 in conference play. Head coach Susan Dittrnan partially attributed these losses to illness of some of the Generals’ key players last week. Said Dittman, “We’ve had a hard time coming together after losing three starting seniors from last year. The team has performed well enough up until this past week, and now, the loss of senior leadership seems to be a factor.” The team’s goals for the remainder of the season will be directed towards good performances in ODAC competition, said Dittrnan. As of press time, the scorelof the Generals’ game at Bridgewater on Wednesday night had not come in. The Generals’ will be in action on Thursday at Mary Baldwin, and over the weekend at the Washington College Toumament. OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Next week: The Fling-tum Phi Athlete-of-the-Month net L.

But despite strong play, the Generals came out of last week with just a tie to show for their efforts. Although the Generals suffered a 3-0 loss to Old Dominion Athletic Conference opponent Roanoke and battled North Carolina Wesleyan to a 0-0 tie, the scores were not indicative of their play. Playing in Salem last Friday against Roanoke, the Generals got off to a slow start. Roanoke scored three times in the first thirty-five minutes of play before W&L put things together, but were unable to dent the Maroons' defense. Said Hathom, “After the first thirty minutes, we got in the game and shut them down. Sarah Allen [a senior] had an amazing game — she played great.” Although the Generals battled North Carolina Wesleyan to a tie, the Generals felt they had outplayed the Bishops and won every facet of the game, except the score. According the Hathom, her team played “the best soccer we have ever played.” W&L’s only problem was that they couldn’t dent the scoreboard. The Generals out-shot N.C. Wesleyan 35-22. The Generals, 2-4-2, will next take to the field on Saturday at 11:30 am. W&L will entertain ODAC foe Randolph—Macon Woman’s College, a team that defeated the Generals earlier this year.

The mountain bicycle combines a lightweight design and multiple gears with an upright sitting posi- tion. “The mountain bike owner en- joys tlie best of both worlds,” said Andy Hunter, 14-year owner of the Lexington Bicycle Shop. “It com- bines an ease of riding with an ease of operation.” Hunter said the mountain bicycle traces its history back to the late 1970's when a group of friends in northern California spent their lei- sure time riding their motorcycles on mountain trails. These trails, however, were eventually closed to motorized traffic. Rather than completely abandon their hobby, the friends adapted. In- stead of motorcycles, they began using heavyweight bicycles on their mountain rides. “From there, it became just a matter of one—upmanship,” said Hunter. “Everyone would improve his bike. One guy would get better brakes, then another guy would get better tires, et cetera. Eventually, from this, the modern mountain bike sprang.” In 1978, the first ten mountain bicycles for retail sale were built by a California bicycle maker named Joe Breeze. All sold quickly and more were soon requested. By 1982, Ross Bicycles became the first manufacturer to come out with a line of ‘mountain bikes.’ Others soon followed. Today, Hunter says, all of the major bicycle manufacturers have at least 3 models of mountain bicycles on the market. Hunter says that mountain bicy- cles have accounted for about forty percent of his business over the last year.

Tee Teague, a Washington and Lee senior from Roanoke, agrees. “I used to have a 10-speed, but it was too boring. My mountain bike lets me see more of Lexington. It’s more fun riding through the woods.” On the more serious side, Teague and four other W&L students will participate this Sunday in the Fall Foliage Classic, a 20K mountain bi- cycle race in Slatey Fork, W. Va., near Snowshoe. Despite its name, however, the mountain bicycle is still primarily used for getting around. “The name ‘mountain bike’ re fleets origin and capabilities more BELTS MORE New Washington & Lee Crest And Colonnade Belts Available Only The College Town Shop lll W.

An ad for a singer-attracted among others a budding young swimming instructor, Doug MacMillan who had never sung before, but thought it might be fun. He was picked to be The Connells frontman, and is still somewhat surprised to find himself the lead singer of a band. They were soon joined by Peele Quest. Several weeks later, the lineup became complete when George Huntley, a fan of The ' Connells and frontman for his own bank, joined them on guitar, keyboard and vocals. Mike and George remain the primary lyricists and composers of The Connells unique and powerful guitar—driven music. in 1984 The Connells landed a track on North Carolina's Dolphin Records sampler, which caught the attention of many producers, including Don Dixon. He later became the produc- er of The Connells first LP Darker Days released on Black Park Records in 1986. Darker Days introduced their unique sound to an enthusiastic audience and critical praise came thick and fast on both sides of the Atlantic for this young North Carolina quintet. Darker Days was released on British Demon Records (co—owncd by Elvis Costello) in the UK. Later that year, Let's Active frontman and producer Mitch Easter was blown away by The Connells‘ New Years eve '-1.986 showcase, and immediately offered to produce their next album at his Drive—ln Studios. The finished album, Boyian ."leigr'it.$ was soon scooped by TVT Records and released in the £11.31 of i987.

On Saturday, November 7th, 1925 thousands of people filled Wilson Field. filled the bleachers erected on both sides and both ends of the field, and filled all the standing space to watch the Generals, under a steady drizzling rain, beat U.Va 12-0. Most of the U.Va student body was there too. November was chosen for Homecoming because it was the most convenient time of the year for alumni to 'return. The Alumni Magazine for October, 1925 announced it as the "First Official Annual Homecoming Day." Tickets were $2.00 and the seats were reserved. Alumni were invited to attend a meeting of the Alumni .-xssociation, inc. ‘~'-s-:10 they w<:'u.id be £t£i(i!'C.‘=.S0(.l. by Benn)’, president of the University of Alabama (which was sharply criticized elswhere in the same issue for stealing the W & L Swing and calling it the Alabama Swing) and former president of W & L. Alumni were also invited to attend classes that morning. "That morning“ was Saturday. Things , have changed. Accommodations were made for 10,000 people. Fraternity House managers names were listed in the Alumni Magazine so alumni could contact them if they wanted to stay in their fraternity houses.

Sororities elect reps By Kelly McCabe Staff Reporter Despite some initial dis- agreement, all three Washington and Lee sororities will have Homecoming Queen nominees this weekend. In September, each sorority received a letter from Associate Alumni Secretary James D. Farrar Jr. inviting them to elect Homecoming Queen representatives. “I was nominated before I knew it," said Kimberly Booth, Kappa Alpha Theta's representa- _Brock, the general tive. Booth said Theta's reaction to their invitation to have a nominee was quite positive. Kappa Kappa Gamma had not decided to elect a r;=_.n;sentative as_of last week, according to Kappa President Heather Brock. When the idea was brought up in a chapter meeting, said consensus was to elect a male representative for Homecoming King instead. That idea was discarded, Brock‘ said, because they would have been the only sorority with it male representative. Brock said Kappa chose a nominee, junior Linsley Hunt, because the other two sororities had already elected repersentatives. Although most of the female students have expressed that they support the idea of sorority Homecoming representatives, the male students seem to have mixed feelings. Heather Brock said she has heard one fraternity member describe the idea as “stupid," but added that Hunt's escort, Who chooses the queen? By Brian Root Senior Copy Editor Why will everyone show for only the first half of the football game this weekend? That's easy. Everyone wants to see who gets kissed by Prof. Keith Shillington at halftime — the traditional honor accorded Washington and Lee’s Homecoming Queen. This year, however, student interest is a little more intense titan usual. Last fall, for the first time, the Homecoming court was made up exclusively of W&L students. The reaction from those in attendance last year was somewhat hostile. So, the question arises, is the committee which selects the Homecoming Queen biased in favor of W&L students? “There would probably be an unconscious tendency to give a little more attention to someone you know in any interview," said Prof. Clark Mollenhoff, the chairman of this year’s committee. “Of course, everyone will try to not have a bias in our selection. We're open to any young lady who impresses us.” Mollenhoff said the committee, which also includes Prof. Alfred Fralin, Carol Calkins, and Helena Roller, will be looking for someone who is both “physically and intellectually beautiful.” “I certainly don't want anyone who is empty-headed representing the school at Homecoming," said Mollenhoff. Mollenhoff said if the senior Chris Giblin, “doesn't seem to mind." organizations that elect candidates object to the eventual selection, the responsibility is theirs. “We don't select the candidates," said Mollenhoff. “All we do is pick who we think is the best from what we have to work with.” This year, also for the first time, W&L‘s three sororities have chosen candidates for Homecoming Queen, despite the misgivings of many members. “I think it's a line idea," Mollenhoff said. “The women probably know each other better than anyone else might." There’s only one way to find out how this year's selection goes. Go out to the football game — at least the first half. Go Generals!

Everyone is rushing to find a date and make plans. And once the problem of finding a date is taken care of, then you have to decide what to do. What to do, what to do? Well, you and your date can kick off the Homecoming week- end with a quaint dinner for two at one of Lexington’s fine restaurants. Then there is always the Friday Night Homecoming Concert. This year, Lost in the Supermarket and Flight of Mavis will be opening up for The Con- nells. And after the concert, there is always that tough choice of which fraternity houses to go visit to conclude the evening's activities. And that's just Friday night's activities. If you decide to drink, re- member four things: have fun, be responsible, and don't drink and drive (A public service an- nouncement paid for by your local Sports Editor).

On Saturday it will have been one year and one day ago since the Generals defeated the Scots 20-0 at Mary- ville. This game will be the fifth time that the Generals and the Scots have squared off in W&L's Homecoming game. Each team has won twice.

W&L has had some exciting ‘and outstanding performances in Homecoming games of the past. In 1987, Phillip Sampson com- pleted 23 of 44 passes for 295 yards and two touchdowns in the loss to Maryville. In 1985, wide receiver Hugh Finkelstein caught seven passes for 175 yards and two touchdowns. In 1984, quarterback Jon Thornton completed 11 of 18 passes for 257 yards. 1983 saw Gene Girard run for 170 yardr on 17 carries. Girard was W&L's first 1,000-yard nisher. 1982 provided one of the closest history. Girard’s one—yard touch- down run followed by a two- point conversion pass from quarterback John Thompson to Chris Cavalline gave the Gener- als a 20-19 win over Randolph- Macon. In the Generals’ Homecoming win in 1949. Hall of Fame quar- terback Gil Bocetti set the Gen- erals single game all-purpose yardage mark against Davidson.

By Andrew Waters Stall‘ Reporter While Washington and Lee students are celebrating Homecoming this weekend, Live Drive organizers and drivers will be working to insure sober travel for the party-goers. In addition to its regular Friday and Saturday call-in service between 10 p.rn. and 2 a.m., Live Drive Saturday night will provide a shuttle service between all fraternity houses and the Pavilion. Live Drive Chairman John Fialcowitz said he expects response to Live Drive's efforts to be good this weekend and has requested another van for the shuttle service. He said the vans are usually packed to capacity and often run out of space. “The problem is that everybody goes out at 10 o'clock,” Fialcowitz said. “It'd be nice if people would go out at different times, but people don't work that way.” He said he hopes people who live near the campus will walk to the Pavilion. Live Drive also offers an exclusive sober- driver shuttle service to organizations that make a request two weeks in advance and are willing to chip in for gas. No fraternities or other organizations, placed a request for this weekend, Fialcowitz said. . “People are just getting used to the idea of calling in,"he said. “They're gradually realizing that it's pretty convenient for them." Calls are fielded by one of six Live Drive coordinators stationed in the University Center. Drivers must make periodic stops by the “home Homecoming games Live Drive ready for weekend in W&L W&L defense rose to the occa- base“ for instructions before answering requests ~ a process Live Drive Coordinators think is inefficient. Live Drive Secretary Stephen Mathis said the committee hopes to eliminate the tirne-consurning check-in stop by installing a communication system in the vans that would enable coordinators to communicate with drivers. He said a system similar to a cellular phone will be tested next week. “The administration told us that this seems to be important enough and that they are willing to work with us to get what we want,” Mathis said. Part of the cost of the system, he added, will probably be taken out of a personal grant that President Wilson ‘ gave to the Executive Committee for Live Drive. Lexington Police Sergeant A.M. Miller said the number of tickets issued to W&L students for driving while intoxicated has decreased since Live Drive began last year. “Now with Live Drive," Miller said, “there's no reason for W&L students to get a DUI.” Fialcowitz said he would like talk to authorities in other schools and help them start their own sober-driver program. “It might be worth bringing to their attention because it's an issue {ha}. concerns both of us,” he said. Miller said he would also like to see Live Drive offered to nearby girls schools, such as Southern Seminary. _ ' . 4 Anyone wishing to request call-in service between 10 p.m. and 2 am. Friday and Saturday night should call 463-8947. sion, holding the Scots to half their normal output in upsetting them 14-12. The Generals lost last sea- son's Homecoming game in heart-breaking fashion. A safety on a bad snap and a hail-mary touchdown pass at the end of the first half proved to be the difference as Hampden-Sydney stopped W&L 22-20. When H- SC comes to Lexington for Homecoming, the Generals are 0-5-1. Last year's disappointing loss ‘vi/as W&L's third straight in a Homecoming game. No one on this W&L squad has won a Homecoming game. Said senior defensive lineman Scott Sil- verman, “This year’s seniors have been talking about it all this week, and we really want to be able to say that we won a me, too? Homecoming game. The Monday after losing a Homecoming game is the worst Monday of the year." The last W&L Homecoming win came back in 1985, when the Generals routed Maryville 42-17 ‘scoring 35 points in the second half. There are some similarities between this W&L team and the Generals of 1985. The 1985 Generals featured a high scoring offense led by a record—setting quarterback. Jon Thornton, who holds the records for most touchdown passes in a game (4), and most passing attempts in a game (52), led the Generals to a 42-17 win. Thomton completed 13 of 18 passes for 232 yards and four touchdowns, and running back Kevin Weaver ran 24 times for 108 yards and two touchdowns. Weaver is W&L's second all- time leading rusher. The 1989 Generals have scored 25 points in three of their four games and are led by record—setting quarterback Phillip Sampson, who has set a W&L record or passed a career mile- stone in each of the four games this season. Another striking similarity between the seasons is that after W&L beat Maryville in 1985, the Generals defeated Harnpdcn- Sydney in the Squids' Home- coming game 32-20. After entertaining Maryville this Saturday, the Generals will travel to Hampden-Sydney for the Tigers’ Homecoming game. In 1985, the Generals tied Emory and Henry and Randolph- Macon for the Old Dominion Athletic Conference title. Not to jinx anyone, but who knows?

Many of the traditions which grew up over the years are now gone. Fraternity decorations, freshman parades, the 13 Club, pep rallies, the "Openings Dance." Things have changed. For years at Homecoming the Alumni Association would award The Ring-tum Phl Homecoming Supplement, October 5, 1989 a prize to the fraternity with the best decorations. ,Fratemities would decorate their front lawns, those that had front lawns, others worrrlfi decorated their house. ey would make banners and floats to cany and ride during the Freshman Torchlight Parade. On Friday night, the night before the big game, the freshmen, wearing pajamas, and other students would gather in the gym for a pep rally. W & L’s cheerleaders would lead the students in cheers and speeches would be given by the coaches and players. excited. Irt 1955 R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company gave 1,000 little megaphones to the students for the pep rally. The freshmen would then, pajama clad, carry torches through town. The most frequent path was down Washington Street, left on Jefferson, right through Red W&L's male cheerleadering squad of 1960 in practice for a pep rally. Photo provided by Cayix. SHILLINGTON from page 3 Everyone got - the following story: "The Betas one year were going to dress up one of their members in a dishmop and that kind of thing. It wonied rrte for a bit, how the hell was I going to handle it if it happened? That was orte homecoming that stuck out in my ntind because it was an awful worry for me." Luckily for Shillington, the studertt in drag didn't appear. Homecoming is never trouble free, as Shillington is quick to note. Homecoming problems in earlier times seemed to center around the microphone. Shillington jokingly added that "it got to the point where I was nearputonmybehindbythe electricity on the microphone. One year when the system was rtot working well I tried a megaphone. I can yell loud and I'm distinct, but it didn't make it very well." Professor Shillington has clearly not tired of the job. When asked if he enjoys his role after the many years, he replied " h Lord yes, I look forward to it.” Being an actor is an essential ingredient for the job, at least for Shillington, and he used the language_ of the theater to describe his feelings about homecoming. Shillington talked Of initially having to overcome stage-fright each time he looked out upon a full stadium. But Shillington thinks the role quickly comes together once he breaks the ice with his "opening line." He added that "the most glorious moment for me is when I turn to the microphone. Before I say anything, I raise my hands and I bring them all [the studertts] up. Oh Jesus. I love that. To have that resonance between myself and the group in the stands is what I get out of it. The electricity is high...it is theater." Professor Shillington spoke wistfully of a future beyond retirement. He will retire after the 1990-1991 school year. Shillington does not what his role will be in the homecomings after he retires, and he added that most students will not krtow him someday. Stacy Patrnore said simply that "Professor Shillington is such an unique part of homecoming, I can't imagaine who would replace him." Her feelings parallel the thoughts of many past and present Washington and Lee students. Others would add to Patmore's statement that no one CAN \replace him. "Doc" Shillington does not have to worry, Washington and Lee legends never fade away. Square, then up Main Street to Nelson. The students would then take a right on Nelson and break into the State theater for a, free movie. The parade must have been a sight. At a time when the world was not so serious, when students weren’t spending their college careers building resumes. In 1955 the Phi ran a picture of the parade. In the picture was a group of students wearing pajamas, one of them bearing a placard reading, "Shove It Up a Turkey - Gobble, Gobble." 13 days before Homecoming the 13 Club would begin its initiation period of its 13 new pledges (who had paid their initiation fee of $13.13) from 13 different fraternities. At some point during these 13 days it was usual for the statue of Cyrus McCormick, the one standing guard on front campus. the one most visitors think is Lee, was tarred and feathered, and the base covered with number 13’s. Ah, what a fine time it must have been. Saturday of Homecoming would usually begin with a football game, that much hasn't changed, but their Saturday night a dance, called "Openings,", would be held in a lavishly decorated Doremus Gymnasium. 1 There would be decorations and this is when the Homecoming Queen would be crowned. The Queen. We still have that, and ‘Dr. Shillington still kisses them. How long has he been doing that? It seems as if it started back in the early 60’s, but he's not sure and no one else is either. But of all those rich traditions only two remain, the Game and the Queen. Where did it all go? Did they just quit? Was some ban placed on 13's or pajamas? No. Perhaps they were killed by a war. They mostly died out in the late 60’s, W&L's 1960 Homecoming Queen addresses the crowd. Photo provided by Caylx. running through the heads of every young man. The last mention, in the Phi, of a house winning a decorations award was Lambda Chi in 1969, and a writer in that same issue wrote, "It seems that for the most part, an alumnus returning to carrrpus is a lonely experience." Irt 1970, the only mention made in the Phi of Homecoming was that it existed and there would be a Concert Friday night and the game Saturday followed by a grain party in Red Square. hi the 1955 Homecoming issue of the Phi the E.C. stated that its policy against drinking in public would be strictly enforced at that years game._ One of the classes listed for a reunion in 1970 was the class of 1925. Things had changed ' By 1971 the only mention of .Homecoming after the fact was a small picture, in the lower left hand comer of the front page, of Shillington kissing the Queen. But Washington and Lee was never a big school. Never a school with teeming thousands cheer the Generals and so things will change. But there are some things here that will never change. On that first Homecming day, back in 1925, G.I_-I. Denny, fonner president of Washington and Lee, spoke to the alumni. "Take away from many a college its ertdowmertt a.nd what is left?" said Denny, "But strip the Washington and Lee Campus of every building and every dollar, and there are left some things more precious than silver and gold." I'm glad that hasn't changed. This Poem was in the 1925 alunuti magazine: By the banks of old North River, winding lazy round the hill, To the Dear old college campus, my thoughts are tunting still; For the college bells are calling, and I know they say to me, "Come you back, you old alumnus, back to Washing- Wh°“ ‘“°“E*"5 °f V‘°‘"‘““ “’°‘° that could fill Wilson Field to ton and from page 1 "'°'“ 939° 1 tentative Chart (#4) and remained on its top 10 for two solid months The record went on to garner praise from such mainstream press staples as Rolling Stone and Musician. Along with the release of Boylan Heights, The Cormells embarked on their first rtationwide tour, eaming them many new fans outside of the South. Their "wholesome boy” appeal and college popularity continuously gain them thousand of offers to play homecoming gigs and {rat parties, as they remain cool enough to repeatedly sell out 1500 seat venues and hold all-time attendance records in any number of clubs throughout the country. The Cormells were quickly earning a name for themselves in the music industry. As they toured through-out the year, The Cormells began work on their third LP, Fun & Games and hired producer Gary Sntith, known best for his work with The Pixies and Throwing Muses. Gary set out to make Fun & Game: an even more accurate reflection of The Connells‘ live show. “Gary wanted to get some of the punch that we have live into the recording," claims lead-singer Doug MacMillan.
