The 1980 Quadrangle A-1 LAGRANGE COLLEGE 1980: If it's not one thing . . . Walter Murphy Succeeds Hagood Dr. Walter Murphy succeeded Dr. Charles L. Hagood as the twenty-first resident of LaGrange College on June L 1980. Dr. Hagood resigned his >osition as president of LC 18 months ifter his inauguration. In announcing the appointment of )r. Murphy, Charles D. Hudson, hairman of the Board of Trustees, said, To the office of president of LaGrange College Dr. Murphy will bring out- tanding qualities of leadership as well s wide experience as a college dministrator. His distinguished record n Christian higher education is well ;nown. His appointment has the inanimous approval of our entire Board f Trustees. We are all delighted to iave a man of Dr. Murphy's high aliber in this vital position." Contacted following the announ- ement, Dr. Murphy said, "Since 1831, iaGrange College has offered the young eople of Georgia a program of quality ducation in a context of Christian ommitment. It has stressed both cademic excellence and quality living. Jnder superbly talented administrative ?adership, an exceptionally able Board f Trustees, and with the magnanimous upport of loyal friends, during the last hree decades LaGrange College has larkedly improved its physical facili- ies, increased its endowment, and xpanded its academic offerings in ssponse to the emerging education eeds of the community of La- (continued on p. 4) Regarded by many as uneventful, the 1980 year at LaGrange College was as unique as any other. (The yearbook is always supposed to say that the year was unique, right?) Well, it really was unique considering all the rather bizarre occurances that took place here. This article will attempt to bring to the surface some of the events that caused the year to be unique. (If it's not one thing, it's another.) These are in no particular order, so assume that they went on all year long. First and foremost on this list is when the Coca-Cola man told the G Jasinski This little bronze boy was moved from his normal home one evening by some unknown moving company. He was overheard as saying, "Maybe if I get this thorn out of my foot I could get back." Student Government Association Pre- sident Ron Dooley that either the students be nice to his machines, or the Coke supply to the Hill would be completely cut off. (Shades of horror!!) The vandalism complaint was certainly justified since Coke machines all over the campus were being butchered. But, instead of cutting off the supply, he raised the price to 300 for a 10-ounce bottle of reconstituted caramel-colored water. The Coke ma- chines remained on campus, in spite of reports of whole cases disappearing from the Coke truck. Since the Coke man must pay for these magical cases, this was another complaint. He solved the problem by acquiring a new truck with roll-down sides. Were you ever stopped by the traffic cop on campus as you drove up the driveway on your way to your eight o'clock class so she could check and see if you had brought your parking sticker on your bumper that day? Not only did she delay you in getting to your class on time, but the inspection caused a line of autos to form that extended well into Vernon Street. Did you walk out of the dining hall one evening to find that the American flag had been replaced by the Canadian flag? The persons responsible for the switch were overheard saying, "They won't draft anybody from this college!" Or were you in attendance at the Quadrangle Sweetheart Dance when the fire extinguisher was set off in the basement of the gym filling the upstairs lobby with that wonderful chemical? (continued on p. 6) A-2 The 1980 Quadrangle McNeill Delivers Address A. Shepley The forty-ninth Convocation of LaGrange College was highlighted by a speech given by Reverend W. Melton McNeill. Seniors were required to attend the service. Seniors to be graduated in 1980 were honored at the one-hundred and forty-ninth Convocation of LaGrange College held on September 19, 1979, in the college gymnasium. On hand for the event were Ron Dooley, President of the Student Government Association, who offered the opening prayer for the program, Dr. Charles F. McCook, chairman of the LaGrange College religion and philo- sophy departments, who read the scripture passage, Dr. Charles L. Hagood, former President of LaGrange College, who presented the speaker, Reverend W. Melton McNeill, who addressed the seniors, Dr. Waights G. Henry, Chancellor of the college, who provided the benediction at the conclu- sion of the program, and several hundred students. Using the Charles Dickens' novel, "A Tale of Two Cities", as the source for the theme in his address, Reverend McNeill told the group that he knew not what the future held, but he did know who held the future. Quoting from the Dickens' novel, Reverend McNeill explained, "we are in the best of times, and we are in the worst of times." He went on to explain that technology and other advan- cements have provided society with the best of times, while the world problems plague society with the worst of times. He concluded by inspiring the graduat- ing class to solve those problems troubling the world to create, "the best of times and the best of times." The program concluded as Dr. Waights G. Henry, Jr. provided the benediction and dismissed the assem- bly. While some students regard the convocation proceedings as unimpor- tant, others view it as a chance to be recognized as seniors before the gradua- tion ceremony. Editor's note: The senior class should be recognized in this manner each year out of respect for those individuals who have successfully completed a college curriculum. Another good point is that it is the only time that the LaGrange College Alma Mater is sung as far as present students are concerned, and, unless it is learned, students may graduate from the school to return as Alumni, and still not know the school battle anthem. Tuition Rising - Some Help On the Way Skyrocketing tuition costs are leaving student financial-aid programs in the dust. In the last ten years, the average total cost of public colleges has risen $1092 - from $1017 in 1968-69 to $2321 in 1978. For private schools, the price tag has more than doubled - from $2321 a decade ago to $4668 in 1978. Soon the American dream of sending everyone to college may become history. There is no relief in sight. In the fall of 1979 the price per year of most elite schools has hit the $9000 mark, according to a survey conducted by the College Entrance Examination Board (the same people who give the SAT); tuition at nearly every college in the nation is up eight to ten percent. The federal government will spend more than $3.7 billion on five student financial-aid programs in 1980. Federal funds recently received a boost when Congress passed the Middle Income Assistance Act opening programs to students previously ineligible. Families earning up to $25,000 annually now qualify for federal money; the prior cutoff point was $15,000. Much of the new money is earmarked for the Basic Education Opportunity Grants (BEOG) and Work/Study, two federal programs that have been helpful to middle class students in the past. Congress will spend $550 million on Work/Study in 1980, which will proba- bly mean more Work/Study jobs, not more money for each student currently enrolled in the program. Now, a student can make about $900 a semester through Work/Study.

Considering the ultimate construction of the book, there is no reason why it is as it is - fairly deep material. The inspiration has been revealed earlier, so why go into that? The staff explored the many possibilities open to such bodies, and came up with the following pages - what more can be said to clarify that statement? The task is never enjoyable, but suffice it to say that after it was all over, more was known than in the beginning. Enjoy the book for what it represents, and leave it at that. G.J. A-4 The 1980 Quadrangle Convocation (continued from p. 1) Grange, West Central Georgia, and the entire state and region. The College is on the threshold of a new era. It is poised and ready to play in the future an even greater role of leadership in the field of Christian higher education in the state and region. I am thrilled to be able to play a part in this future and pledge to continue the College's dedica- tion to academic quality, to keep close its ties with The United Methodist Church, and the community of La- Grange, to seek vigorously to recruit outstanding, worthy young people who can profit from its educational program, to continue to employ the principles of sound fiscal management and to work tirelessly to strengthen the College's endowment. "I look forward to working with the Board of Trustees, the students and faculty, alumni, citizens of LaGrange, and the United Methodists of Georgia," he added. A native of Chester, S.C., Dr. Murphy was reared in Thomaston, Ga. He received his A.B. degree from Emory University, Magna Cum Laude in 1950, and his Master of Divinity degree from the Candler School of Theology at Emory University in 1953. LaGrange College honored him with a Doctor of Divinity degree in 1978. Dr. Murphy was a member of the North Georgia Conference of The United Methodist Church from 1952 to 1967. During that time he served as minister of United Methodist churches in Decatur, Newton County, Dekalb County and Athens. He was director of religious life at Oxford College, Emory University from 1959 to 1962. At this time he also served as minister of the Allen Memorial Church in Oxford. From 1966 to 1976 he was at Florida State College in Lakeland, Florida where he served in various positions including Dean of Students and Executive Vice President. It's possible that what happened that night in the LC cafeteria was all a hoax. It's possible - but it wasn't. Too many people left the performance with their mouths hanging open in disbelief for it to be a hoax. That performance was, of course, the "Mr. Fingers Show" supremely presented by Mr. Irv Weiner. Weiner, better known as "Mr. Fingers," has been around the magic circuit for quite a while, and it is certainly evident. It's evident not only in the way he performs his tricks but also in the way he talks to his audience, using it as part of his act. He psyches them out - "Notice how my little finger is extended. Watch it carefully ... it doesn't mean a thing" - because he knows they're all there with one thing in mind. To find out how it's done. But Weiner won't oblige. That's not the way magic works. Weiner's tricks deal with the mind as well as with the eye. The eye is exploited when he sticks a hatpin through his arm and actually draws blood and when he manages to get a steel ring around each of his arms with his thumbs securely taped. The mind is exploited when you believe what you saw. Everyone in the audience saw it but no one saw it at all. Weiner had heads shaking throughout the entire show. What people once held as fantasies were now happening right in front of them. The son of two deaf mutes, Weiner learned early to communicate with his hands and other body language. "At age three I was an actor. The kids used to call me Fingers Weiner." Thus, the name of his travelling show. Weiner studied how to recreate the greats. "I'd take their themes and embroider upon their routines. "My magic has a startling effect. Magic is little miracles. It's creating the impossible. But it is possible in the true art of magic." The performer said he carries "a tremendous amount of things" to the various campuses, because he adapts his show content to the individual campus. Whatever it was, magic or mind- bending, it was amazing, and that is what Weiner tried to get across to his audience, "Magic is a great act. It's too bad we don't see it as much anymore," he said. According to Weiner, his show was an act. To the people who witnessed it, it was more like an experience. An act is sawing someone in half in order to deceive the eyes. Having your mind toyed with is more than that - it's for real. The 1980 Quadrangle A-5 Alumus Fred Brown Returns to LC as Editor of "Brown's Guide to GA." SGA Sponsors Talent Show The Student Government Associa- tion sponsored its first annual Talent Show early in March. The event attracted some 200 spectators, maybe because the 200th person entering Price Theater got a gift certificate from Mansour's. Anyway, under the direction of Gail Manning, the show was a success judging from the audience's response to the nearly twenty acts that appeared on stage. Spec Clark served as Master of Ceremonies. Winning first place was Jenny McCook for her performance of "Noth- ing" from "A Chorus Line." Second place was taken by Murphy Pace and the Naturals, alias Betty Rosser, Carlos Heard, LePearl Baker, and Van Robin- son, singing, "Prayin'." The third place winner was Ken Reese, who sang the Barry Manilow tune, "Where Are They Now?" G. Jaainsk: The antics of Michael Marlin insulted some of his audience, but entertained the majority of those turning out for his show at Price Theater. LaGrange College alumnus Fred Brown, who is editor and publisher of his own magazine, "Brown's Guide to Georgia," gave a lecture to interested students as part of the fall quarter forum programs. Brown's appearance coincided with the opening of a photo contest spon- sored by "Brown's Guide to Georgia" held at the Chattahoochee Valley Arts Association. Brown, a native of Atlanta, received his A.B. degree from LaGrange College in 1964, with a major in history. While at LC he was editor of the college newspaper, "The Hilltop News," and was named to Who's Who Among Students in American Colleges and Universities. He has been active in the LC Alumni Association, serving as National president in 1971. Following his graduation, Brown worked on newspapers in Massachu- settes and Georgia before accepting a position with Delta Airlines in 1966. At Delta he was editor of the in house publication before being named assis- tant public relations director for the Atlanta-based airline In December, 1972, while still at Delta, Brown published the first issue of "Brown's Guide to Georgia." At that time it was a quarterly and the December issue contained articles on hiking, biking, a restaurant review, and a museum tour in its 32 pages. Less than two months later the magazine went bi-monthly and had over 100 pages. Today, Brown's magazine is a monthly publication with a circulation of over 65,000. With just a dozen employees, the magazine is a quality G. Jasinski Fred Brown is an alumnus of LaGrange College - his "Brown's Guide" currently has a circula- tion of over 65,000 issues month- ly. He plans to expand his guide to include other states in the future. guide to recreation in the state, and also features in-depth stories on subjects of general interest to its readers. "My hope," Brown says, "is to make our publication a guide in every way: economically, politically, as well as ecreationally." It is interesting to note that the first time Brown spoke on the campus, his lecture was boycotted as a part of a student boycott of all forum pro- grams. When a student at LaGrange, Brown was an active participant in boycotts and protests of that nature. A-6 The 1980 Quadrangle G. Jasinski G. Jasinski Editorial cartoonist of The Atlanta Constitution Clifford H. ("Baldy") Baldowski demonstrates his talent at the program held in the Callaway Science Building. "Chalk Talk" Presented to Students Editorial cartoonist for The Atlan- ta Constitution Clifford H. ("Baldy") Baldowski presented a "chalk talk" and lecture at LaGrange College at a fall quarter forum program. A native of Augusta, Georgia, Baldowski was educated at The Citadel, Charleston, S.C., and the Art Students League in New York City. Baldowski's by-line "Baldy" has appeared on editorial cartoons in The Atlanta Constitution seven days a week since 1957. In 1959 he won the National Sigma Delta Chi award for Distin- guished Service in Journalism for his reflections on the school crisis facing the South. In 1960, Time magazine called him "one of the South's leading appeals to reason." In 1963, the International Council on Human Relations of The United Methodist Church asked him to com- pile a book of his cartoons on civil rights for publication during the latter part of 1964. In 1965, the National Council of Parents and Teachers honored him with a lifetime membership in that organiza- tion for his work on school drop-outs. Baldowski has participated in a university lecture series at Tulane University, North Carolina State, Mt. Olive College, and the University of Florida. He offered attending students the opportunity to ask questions regarding journalism as a career, and used his chalk drawing pad extensively through- out the lecture. If it's not (continued from p. 1) And then there was the time when the ground got covered with snow (the first time) and everyone turned out for the giant snowball battle in the parking lot. The LaGrange Police decided to get in on the action and drove one of their cars onto the campus only to be bombarded by several snowballs which bounced off their auto. The officer inside got out of the car and threatened to take everyone present down to the jail to spend the evening. One student decided to challenge the officer and it appeared as though the poor chap would have to exist on bread and water for a few days. The student kept talking, though, and the officer left without incident. The wizardry of Mr. Fingers amazed and intrigued many students - he affected one student so deeply that the student fainted during the show in the cafeteria. It was later learned that the student was not under the influence of the magic, but under the influence of something of a more distilled nature. Then there was the controversial and ever popular Indies vs. Pi Kappa Phi football game last fall. It seems that one of the players on the Indie team was ineligible for competition since he had not attended one of his classes that day. The Indies went on to win the contest, not knowing that this player was ineligible to compete, and later found that they would not be considered the winner of the game since this infraction had been committed. Although players on both teams were divided as to how the ruling should have been handled, it did not affect the decision made by Coach Hugh Corless. Maybe there should be a change in some of the rules? (continued) on p. 16) The 1980 Quadrangle A-7 G. Jafiineki Conducting a mime demonstration on the patio, John Ammerman showed students some of the frequently used mime techniques. He is shown here in one of his better moments. MUSE Benefits Wage War on Nuclear Energy A new organization called MUSE - Musicians United for Safe Energy - began its uphill struggle to limit or perhaps eliminate the use of nuclear power plants in the United States. Sponsors of the organization are putting their money where their mouths are. Jackson Browne, Bonnie Raitt, Graham Nash, James Taylor, Carly Simon, Bruce Springsteen, John Hall, Jesse Colin Young, the Doobie Brothers, and a host of others staged a five-night benefit in the fall of 1979 at Madison Square Garden raising an estimated one million dollars for the antinuclear movement; a live album made at the concert is expected to bring in another two to four million. Explaining their rationale for forming MUSE, the performers state that music is one of the best ways to reach a large segment of the public - especially those that will have to live with the possible effects of nuclear power. "Quite a few people know how important a show of strength and solidarity is," says Jackson Browne. "Those who don't know and just happen to come to a concert because they're attracted by someone they know through music - that's fine. We get an opportunity to tell them about the danger of nuclear power." "The most exciting thing about the MUSE benefits is that they are cooperative efforts on the parts of the musicians," adds John Hall, perhaps the most outspoken of the anti-nuke musicians. He became active in the movement four years ago when a nuclear power plant was planned for a (continued on p. 8) A-8 The 1980 Quadrangle G. Jasinski 1981 SGA Officers Elected MUSE Benefits (continued from p. 7) site six miles from his home in upstate New York. Since then, he has been performing benefits and writing songs advocating the anti-nuclear position. His "Power" has become the movement's anthem. Rock musicians are not new to nuclear politics. In 1974, the first benefit concerts raised money for native Americans fighting for their possessory rights to New Mexico land where uranium mines are located. In 1976, similar benefits raised nearly $160,000 in support of California's Proposition 15. It was voted down by a two to one margin, but musicians and anti-nuke forces rebounded with a concert that bounded with a concert that raised another $100,000 and led to the formation of the Pacific Alliance (another anti-nuclear group) in 1977. Benefits have raised money for local alliances on both east and west coasts. Sam Lovejoy is the president of MUSE and heads the production board which supervises logistics for the benefit and works out details for the record and feature film documenting the event. The MUSE Foundation will oversee dispersing the benefit's proceeds to local and national organiza- tions to support national actions and for public education across the nation. Lovejoy cites the power of rock and roll money in political campaigns. The Allman Brothers raised money for Carter, and Jackson Browne did the same for Jerry Brown's 1974 and 1978 campaigns. "It's one of the few ways you can raise large dollars without going to rich people," Lovejoy says. Energy promises to be a major campaign issue in the 1980 presidential elections, and Lovejoy believes that anti-nuclear forces are a large enough block of voters to deny the presidency to any candidate who has an unaccept- able energy program in store for the nation. The highly visible musicians will draw public and media attention to the activities of the group. In spite of controversy caused by eligibility requirement disputes, the 1981 Student Government Association officers were elected late Winter quarter. Maw Wood, the newly elected president, promised that all students would be equally represented by his administration. He also stated students would be represented without regard to personal involvement on his part. The officers will face an increasingly difficult task of running the student government because of rising costs of entertainment, including movies and live acts, and, since they totally fund the student publica- tions, rising production costs. Raising the student activity fee is a possibility that will be considered. The 1980 Quadrangle A-9 Resigns Unexpectedly . . . Hagood No Longer King of Hill "I've been kind all my Dr. Charles L. Hagood announced Friday, December 21, 1980, he was resigning the position of president of LaGrange College after serving eighteen months as its 20th president. The resignation was accepted by the Board of Trustees of LC at its regular meeting at noon that day. Charles D. Hudson, board chairman, was named temporarily as acting president - without pay - until a successor could be chosen. Hudson said Hagood, who had served as pastor of five Georgia churches during his eighteen years in the ministry, accepted a sales position with a LaGrange carpet firm, Carpets International - Georgia, Inc. The resignation became effective December 31, 1980. The board chairman said the resignation came as a surprise. "Dr. Hagood came to me yesterday and submitted his resignation, and I asked him to submit it to the board, which I did today at noon," Hudson said after the resignation became public. Hagood said he had been named sales manager for the carpet firm's Florida market, and that he would move his family there in the following several weeks. The Hagoods relocated in Orlando, Florida. "I've just decided after 20 years and two different forms of ministry that I'm intrigued and fascinated by the business world," he commented, "and I want to move into that phase of work. At 42, I of planning it life." still have a strong commitment to the church, but my service to God and man can best be translated by my move into the lay and business world where I can utilize my ability in sales work as a speaker. "I'm proud of what has happened in the 18 months I've been here . . . It's been a learning experience, but I'm sure that education is not the place I've wanted to spend my life. I hope I've done something constructive and crea- tive for the school." Hagood commented he had con- sidered the decision for some time. "I've been kind of planning it all my life. I was a Methodist minister's son and I grew up in the church all my life. I sort of want - not to change the values in my life - but a chance for me to explore a new dimension of life. If my life could accomplish anything, I would like to be a person who demonstrated that the Christian life could be lived within the ministry or without the ministry equally well. I think God needs both those who are ordained or in the laity and I hope my life shows you can make that change," he added. Dr. Hagood, 42, assumed the college presidency July 1, 1978. He followed the highly successful and popular Dr. Waights G. Henry, Jr., who had served as president for 30 years and was elevated to a new position as chancellor. Hagood left the pastorate of the United Methodist Church to accept the new post. D. Griffin R. Pendley "Man of Action" Whether at the basketball game in the gym, or simply roaming about campus, Robert Pendley was nearly always seen striking this pose. He has earned this year's Quad "Man of Action" award. We salute him and his ilk. A- 10 The 1980 Quadrangle "It's Still Broadstreet To Me" Boatwright Hall Dedicated Spring 1980 In a formal ceremony on February 29, 1980, J.K. Boatwright, Jr. unveiled a bronze tablet dedicating as "J.K. Boatwright, Sr. Hall," the three-story LaGrange College building formerly called Broadstreet Dormitory. Action by the Board of Trustees called for the change in name in memory of the late J.K. Boatwright, Sr., college benefactor who served as chairman of the board's executive committee from 1956 to 1962, and as a member of the Board of Trustees from 1952 to his death on July 17, 1976. Charles D. Hudson, Chairman of the LC Board of Trustees and acting President of the college then, presided at the service which was attended by members of the Boatwright family, members of the college's Board of Trustees, other college officials, faculty, and friends of the Boatwright family. LaGrange students were not invited to the dedication. Dr. Waights G. Henry, Jr., La- Grange College Chancellor, presented dedicatory remarks saying, "In placing the name of James Kennerly Boat- wright on this building and presenting this plaque on the wall we honor a man who has meant much to LaGrange College. He became the Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees at a time when resourceful and dynamic leadership was required. "He would be the first to emphasize that no man can built effectively unless someone else has laid the proper foundations. Other Executive Commit- tee Chairmen had struggled and hoped for the events that came to fruition under J.K. Boatwright. "For the first 117 years, LaGrange College constructed seven buildings. That was in the period of 1831 to 1948. For the next nine years the house was set in order and growth plans estab- lished. Then in the seven years of his Chairmanship of the Executive Com- mittee Mr. Boatwright led in the construction of eight new buildings: 1957 - Turner Hall; 1959 - gymnasium; 1959 - Manget building; 1962 - Broad Street Dormitory; 1962 - dining hall; 1963 - library; 1964 - chapel; 1964 - President's home on Vernon Road. "We thank God for him and his dedication to LaGrange College." MUSE . . . (continued from p. 8) "We are being misled," John Hall states categorically. "You've got to face the fact that the government will lie to us, and we ought to know that corporations will lie to us when they stand to make a profit. It shouldn't be surprising that with $140 billion invested in nuclear power over the last thirty years, the companies involved continue to say there's no risk involved. These people put the short-run gain above the long-term risk. We've just got to find out if enough people will stand up for the right to live." Hall contends, "We have the capability right now to switch from nuclear power to alternatives, but the only solar applications that the energy industry's interested in are the ones they can send you a bill for. The underlying political question is whether we'll continue to get more and more dependent on centralized multibillion- dollar conglomerates who supply us with our lifeblood over the wires, or whether we'll regain a measure of control and power over our lives." SGA Committee Had Good Ideas- Not Continued (an editorial) In an effort to improve dining conditions in the cafeteria, the SGA decided it would be a good idea to form a "Food Committee" to give suggestions to the cafeteria manager and to have some say in what was served at mealtimes. This idea turned out to be good in theory, but failed as a way of improving eating conditions. Although the com- mittee did succeed in getting steak sauce on the tables, and garlic butter for the French bread, they failed to continue a program of new suggestions which could have led to a better attitude toward college meals. One member of the committee was even banned from attendance at future meetings because he was unable to meet at the appointed times. This member may have been able to at least keep new ideas coming even if he couldn't attend the formal meetings. As a result of the committee's failure, student attendance at meals got progressively worse throughout the 1979-80 school year. Students would eat out, or go without eating - a situation which should not exist in a school with a 900 student population. This clearly shows the need for action to be taken. The Food Committee of the SGA is a sound idea, and more emphasis should be placed on its activities and sugges- tions by the SGA. Members of the committee should be able to voice student opinion as to what could be served and how it is served and everyone - even the ARA Food Services people - would benefit from changes for the better in the LC dining hall. The 1980 Quadrangle A ll Student-Teacher Reunion Witnessed On LC Campus Well-known Georgia author and journalist Paul Hemphill paid a visit to the LC campus to give a lecture as part of the spring quarter 1980 Forum program. Requesting that he be allowed to meet and talk with interested students, Hemphill, along with his teacher-host University in 1959 with a major in speech and a double minor in English and Journalism. He was a member of Blue Key honor society, played baseball for Auburn, and was sports editor of Auburn's "Plainsman" when the Tigers were named first place in football in 1957. In 1958 he was a summer intern first meeting, Dr. Jones remembers Hemphill as "a very confused fresh- man." He steered Hemphill into the journalism field when he (Jones) taught at Auburn, then Alabama Polytechnic Institute. Hemphill has published four books: "The Nashville Sound;" "Mayor: Notes G .lasinski Dr. Walter Jones, met with a small gathering the night before the lecture was scheduled. In his extremely relaxed talk with prospective journalism students, Hemphill expressed a genuine interest in their futures and warned, "it's not easy to make it." A native of Birmingham, Alabama, Hemphill graduated from Auburn in the sports department at the Atlanta Constitution. Admitting that baseball has always been his first love, Hemphill reflected, "I wish I wanted to write as bad as I once wanted to play baseball." Perhaps the most notable of Hemphill's lecture was the fact that he takes no credit for his success - he gives it all to Dr. Jones. In a re-telling of their on the Sixties" (on former Mayor Ivan Allen, Jr. of Atlanta); "The Good Old Boys;" and "Long Gone," his first novel. He has two more novels awaiting publication: "Too Old to Cry," an anthology of Hemphill journalism; and tentatively-titled "Down Home," a collection of his essays on being a Southerner. A-12 The 1980 Quadrangle The Invaders Are Coming! As you walk down the shopping mall, hoping to spot some tremendous sale in one store or another, you find yourself strangely compelled toward the north end of the mall, towards one of the larger anchor stores. Space-like and even more bizarre sounds are emitting from the small opening that leads into one of the stores - no, it's not a store; rather, it appears to be one of those pinball parlors one only reads about in books. You say to yourself, "I only have five dollars to my name!! What am I entering this place for?" Mind attempts to overcome matter, but before you know it, you're standing right in front of one of those "machines of the devil." You are standing in front of, of course, the Space Invaders computer-video game. Quarter after quarter falls into the slot in an attempt to beat the high score posted on the top of the beast, daring you to break the record. A crowd of critics gathers around you who slyly observe each shot of the laser base, waiting for a fumble or delayed reaction. Row upon row of the pregnant invaders excrete their fatal drops in an attempt to shorten your game. You feel the tension spreading throughout your body. You are rude to friends who shove their faces in front of the screen to obstruct your view. Suddenly, the UFO appears, and, as you attempt to obliterate it, blows you up. You reach for another quarter - you have become a Space Invaders addict. Created by the Taito American Corporation of Japan, Space Invaders is marketed in America by Stan Jarocki of Midway. He explains the games popularity by stating, "It's the competi- tiveness. As the player becomes more skillful, the computer responds accord- ingly. It's having the ultimate oppo- nent. The result is that a romance seems to develop between the player and the game." Space Invaders is an appropriate name for the video game. Video games were originally developed out of technology that was created for the space program. Perhaps the most mesmerizing aspect of game is the pulsating heartbeat sound the machine emits when you play. The heartbeat quickens as you eliminate invaders. The Space Invaders sound is the basis of a disco record recently released in Japan. Maybe someday someone will get to the point where he can play no better as he defeats the machine and a new cult will be named for him. Until then, the supply of quarters held in pockets will certainly be decreased. (i. Jasinski Even the Space Invaders console is a menace that stands before the competitor. Through the use of a "heartbeat" sound, the machine causes blood pressure to rise and adrenelin to flow. The 1980 Quadrangle A-13 Fifteen Years At LC Gratifying, Trying, For Dean John R. Love For fifteen brief, gratifying, and often trying years, John R. Love has been Dean of Students of LaGrange College. A Graduate of Wofford, a small Methodist college in Spartanburg, South Carolina, Dean Love spoke fondly of his years at LC. With minimum hesitation he related in- cidents of former years complete with names, dates, and specific details. He could produce, upon request, papers, and business letters pertaining to various Student Government Associa- tion activities, punishments for rule violations, and other school affairs. One incident involved a young man who, after imbibing rather heavily one evening, wreaked havoc throughout dorm and parking lot. Upon being confronted by Dean Love, the young man confessed to the various misdeeds and was brought to trial before a group of his peers. Since the culprit lacked only the remainder of the quarter to graduate, his jury decided that he should undergo solitary confinement rather than be dismissed from the campus. The student was given specific orders as to where he could venture at what hours, and to whom he might speak. With a shake of his head, Dean Love told of the nights he has passed the young man's room to find him quietly engaged in marking his scores as he played solitaire. "Of course," remarked Dean Love with a smile, "the rules have evolved over the years and modern rules and discipline now prevail." As an example of the evolution of those rules, Dean Love outlined the duties of his first years at LC. He spent a great deal of his time lecturing wayward students and advising them of their misconduct. In addition, he spoke with students who acquired excessive demerits for offenses such as breach of curfew. Tracing the curfew changes over the past fifteen years, Dean Love reported that the young men of LaGrange College have never had a curfew. Only female students have been forced to labor under the restrictions of sign-out sheets, sign-in sheets, and severe penalities for failure to comply. Freshmen girls' dormitories at one time were locked each week night at ten o'clock; those girls coming in at inappropriate hours were issued demer- its, or, for multiple offenses, sent home. In November of 1972 it was decided that young ladies who had a 2.0 average or better would be exempt from curfew. Later the curfew was lifted entirely. Dean Love listed the advantages of being at LC as its small size, the opportunity to know with whom one is dealing, and the fact that students will communicate with those people who hold authority. Dean Love emphasized that, in dealing with student discipline, he keeps two thoughts in mind. The first is pertaining to what he would have done had he been in the student's position. The second involves what disciplinary action he would have wanted for his own children had they been in the same situation. Changes Dean Love would like to see at LaGrange College include the building of the new student center, the addition of more parking spaces for students, and a look at the existing visitation rules on campus. In summation of his feelings about LaGrange, Dean Love confided, "I've been blessed with what the young people brought to me and with the challenge they brought to me. It keeps you young." After fifteen years of service to LaGrange College, Dean John R. Love is retiring in 1980. The Quadrangel wishes to speak in behalf of the entire student population in wishing him well in his retirement. Echoing what many students have said after Dean Love had advised them of their choices, "Thanks, Dean Love." M Whm From his office on the second floor of Smith Building, Dean Love has "spent a great deal of time lecturing wayward students and advising them of their misconduct."

Bible Study Postponed Due to certain conflicts, the Bible Study sponsored by Greeks will not be able to meet this week. The meetings will resume at the regularly scheduled time next Wednesday night, October 3, at 9:00 on the first floor lobby of Henry Hall. LC's Parking Problem . . . it is going to mean sacrifice on the part of students. "To be reasonable," said Dean Love, l 'we cannot reserve a space 'especially for you.' We have a system we think works as well as possible within the geographical limitations. We cannot guarantee you a space, but we can give you some helpful suggestions" These include: One, remember you will be ticketed if you violate parking rules. (These rules are relaxed after lunch, when the peak time has passed.) . . . "We don't mean to make light of the problem; we know it exists and we welcome your sugges- tions and your co-operation," said Dean Love. "The parking lots at Sunny Gables and Price Theatre are seldom filled. Use these! . . ."

Theft Suspected At LC In the early morning hours of Monday, March 24, at approxi- mately 1:00 a.m., an alleged theft occured within the stairwell of Waights G. Henry Hall in the vicinity of the third floor. After a thorough investigation, authorities have been provided with the name of a suspect who was seen by a witness whose name cannot be released at this time. The witness allegedly was in the vicinity where the theft occurred. The item in question is an invaluable tool without which the SGA cannot function efficiently. The following description of the article stolen was given to investigators by Ms. Nancy Alford, Associate Dean of Students: A designer stapler measuring approxi- mately 8 to 10 inches in length with a color that could be described as canary yellow. Along with the stapler was also taken a box of 1000 designer staples. If this item is not returned within 48 hours to Box 148, the suspect's name shall be printed in the "Elsie Extra" with a complete account of the witness's statement given to investigators.

The campus newspaper in newsletter format is published each Tuesday and is a means by which the campus community is informed of news on the Hill. Mrs. Julia Dyar, Director of Public Relations, and Mrs. Mae Towns of the Public Relations Office have assisted the staff tremendously and have pledged their continued support. Kenneth Ward is serving as Busi- ness Manager of the paper. Any article for publication should be submitted to either of the editors Kathy Reese, Box 464, or Bryan Finch, Box 709. Material to be used for an issue on Tuesday should be mailed by the preceding Friday.

(continued from p. 6) The Student Government Associa- tion elections were held Winter quarter, and the contest turned into a race to see which candidate could get up the most posters before election day. Candidates also competed to see how large a banner could be hung at nearly any location on the campus. Each candidate chose which office he would like to seek - either directly or indirectly - with the exception of one of the office-seekers. This candidate was not allowed to seek the office he wanted to seek because he did not meet one of the requirements dealing with hours completed at LaGrange College. This same candidate was allowed to run in last year's election in lieu of the ineligibility for the office. The SGA serves all the students on the campus, and perhaps candidates should be allowed to run for the offices for which they feel they are qualified. An unknown (to us) candidate entered the race and had a good showing of voters at the ballot box. This candidate was none other than Mr. Ansley Snodgrass, who ran on a platform more solid than most of the other candidates. At one of the dinner hours shortly after the new SGA officers were elected, Stevie Carder announced that he would be making his last announcement in his term of office. The students in the cafeteria exploded with applause.

Four of those forty-five years were spent as a student at the college when "the hill" consisted only of the Dobbs, Hawkes, and Smith buildings. Upon graduation from LC, Miss Cline attended the Peabody Conservatory of Music at Baltimore for 2 years, later returning to LaGrange to take a teaching position at the college. The enrollment at that time was approxima- tely one hundred students, all female. Those were the depression years, when the music department was small and pay was meagre. Miss Cline sup- plemented her teacher's salary with fees from private lessons. Over the course of the years Miss Cline has taught music to four blind students. Her first, a girl named Helen, she remembers particularly well. Helen's majors, reported Miss Cline, were piano/organ and English. She was an excellent student and performed well on recitals. To prevent mishaps, Helen was taught the exact number of steps from a spot off stage to the piano bench. Awed audiences would hold their breaths, amazed, as Helen made her way unfalteringly to the bench to play her pieces on recital. Of course, Miss Cline pointed out, everything Helen played was memorized. She would learn the mechanics of each hand separately, finally combining them to complete the process. Miss Cline learned a great deal from her sightless pupils, even learning M. White LaGrange College music instructor Katherine Cline remembers Dobbs fire, teaching blind students, and a once state-noted music department in which she taught both piano and organ. to understand a little braille. The 1950's and early 1960's herald- ed the peak of the music department at LaGrange College. Included were band, orchestra, and chorus. From poor instruments and out-of-tune pianos Miss Cline, with the help of Dr. Waights Henry, built the music depart- ment to include approximately ten pianos and a fifty thousand dollar pipe organ. The new organ, a Moller which required six weeks for installment, replaced an old organ built in the 1800's and purchased from the Capital Theater. In spite of all this equipment, the music major was dropped from LaGrange College in the spring of 1967. Miss Cline recollected the Dobbs fire of November, 1970, when the oldest building on campus was destroyed. Along with Dobbs went nine pianos and the eleven-year old pipe organ, valued then at seventy thousand dollars. A Steinway Grand piano, previously taken to Dr. Estes' residence, escaped along with a Baby Grand which was kept in the President's house. Today the Steinway Grand resides in Smith Parlor and the smaller piano is in use in Miss Cline's studio. These two pianos are all that remain of the early days of the music department at LC. Katherine Cline, however, has wonderful memories of the music department. Proficient on the piano, organ, and violin, she has been an asset to the college in general and to the music department in particular. Asked if she thought the music department would thrive again at LaGrange, Miss Cline replied that, because of the money factor involved, there will probably never be another full fledged music department at LC. The 1980 Quadrangle A-19 Dr. Hagood Inaugurated Dr. Charles L. Hagood was inaugu- rated LaGrange College's twentieth president Friday morning, April 20, 1980, in ceremonies in Price Theater. Charles D. Hudson, Chairman of the Board of Trustees, presided at the ceremony attended by college trustees, officers, representatives of learned societies, educational associations and foundations, members of the senior class, officers of the student govern- ment, members of the alumni associa- tion, the LaGrange College Singers and interested students. After the ceremony of investiture, President Hagood told the audience, 'Our only rationalization for existence is that dream our forebears had nearly a century and a half ago of providing quality education within a personalized setting against the backdrop of a religious faith. Never have we, never can we, not never do we desire to compete educationally in terms of numbers or physical resources. "To describe the philosophy that will enpower us to achieve our appoint- ed destiny as a Christian college is exceedingly difficult in this pluralistic age and even more difficult to actualize. It involves more than advertising our faith by organizing prayer groups, displaying bumper stickers and button- holing people with stories of conversion. Rather than providing simplistic answers that fail to hold up in hard hours, it means an honest confrontation with life's complexities. Whatever else is involved in being a Christian community on the college level, it does mean responding seriously and sympathetically to human needs and individually preparing persons to realize their fullest human potentials. "Of necessity that calling will involve our willingness to be ever open to the infinite wisdom of the God who alone understands how our dreams can be translated into reality." Bishop William R. Cannon, Re- sident Bishop, Atlanta Area, The United Methodist Church, gave the principal address including the follow- ing points: "The abiding Christian contribu- tion to college life is the institutional recognition of the supreme importance of good character. We cannot really educate unless we apperceive a set of values, a standard of life above and beyond the mere acquistion of know- ledge, sacred as well as secular. "The test of LaGrange College will be the quality of the lives of its graduates - their contribution, not only to themselves and their families, but to the society and the world," he contin- ued. "Will the times in which they live and work be better because of them, because they have lived in those times? Our mission is not merely that of dispensing knowledge and teaching students how to earn a living: it is to aid them in the formation of their good lives." The formal procession, with Dean Malcolm Shackelford as Grand Mar- shal, was composed of representatives of colleges and universities throughout the United States and abroad. It was led by representative of Katholieke Universiteit, Leuven, Belgium, founded in 1425, and concluded with the representative of Gordon Junior Col- lege, established in 1972. Bishop Cannon led the prayer of consecration following the inauguration and LaGrange College Chancellor Waights G. Henry, Jr., former pre- sident, gave the benediction. Very few students ever have the opportunity to experience the inaugura- tion of a college president, especially their own president. LaGrange Collge students that attended the ceremony saw a historical event for the school, and it will be remembered as a memory of college life. A-20 The 1980 Quadrangle You Say You Live At Broad Street? "If I didn't know any better. I d think a bunch of animals lived in this place." "I'll be glad next year when I can move out of this place." "You have to know which shower head to use, or else you'll get no hot water at all!" "When you wake up in the morning there's sometimes a line to take a shower since only one or two of the heads work." "We got a fire extinguisher blasted off while we were sitting in our room, minding our own business." "I saw that the door was on fire - luckily I had a pitcher of water in the room and I put it out." "I came home after the weekend - people had thrown up in the bathroom and not bothered to clean it up afterwards. The smell was awful." "They painted the second floor hall, then threw smoke bombs down the hall to finish the job." "My fan cut out on me and the heat almost killed me." "This guy came staggering down the hall and asked me if I could help him find his room - I really felt sorry for him." "The dogs seem to like it up here." "People wash their greasy pots and pans in the sinks and never clean them out - it's hard to find a clean one before I go to bed at night." Students who reside in Broad Street (Boatwright) Hall admit that conditions are not the best there, but conditions are not that bad. And while the vandalism and cleanliness problems are primarily the fault of the students who live there, there seems to be an actual absence of authority or order there. Students on the campus who were questioned about the conditions at Broad Street will remain anonymous, but this reporter found that while they wished to remain unnamed, they expressed a genuine interest in a project to improve living conditions in the dorm. "People on the campus don't seem to realize what conditions are like here," said one resident. "Some nights you can't even get to sleep at a decent hour for all the noise in the halls." The basic problem seems to lie in the lack for misappropriation) of authority in the facility. Students can get away with practically anything they want to. This would not be a problem if only the students committing the actions would be affected. However, when innocent bystanders and residents are affected by the situation, some attention should be called to the problem. ' bell's ROOM 1 M White M.

Max Wood, SGA President, pre- sented Dean Love a commemorative plaque and framed resolution designat- ing the special day, which read as follows: "WHEREAS, John R. Love has served as Dean of Students at La- Grange College from 1965 to 1980, and "WHEREAS, he has rendered of his time untiringly to all students, and "WHEREAS, he has supported all campus organizations by buying 103 raffle tickets, 47 bar-b-que dinners, attending 167 basketball games, 62 dances, innumerable intramural games, and gained 12-3/4 pounds from partak- ing of 75 bake sales, and "WHEREAS, he has badgered students, bonded students, and bragged on students, and "WHEREAS, he has been awa- kened at 3:00 a.m. time and time again, been the prize of a scavenger hunt, a Big Brother to some, and friend to all, and "WHEREAS, he has issued 77 Vi more parking violations than parking permits, and "WHEREAS, he has been a real 'DEAN OF LOVE,' "We declare Friday, May 16, 1980, as DEAN LOVE DAY and acknowledge it to the entire campus on behalf of the student body."

With a dining hall table as his throne, "King" Love expressed his deep and sincere appreciation to the students for the gesture. G. Jaainaki G Jaainaki G. Jaainaki A-22 The 1980 Quadrangle Step-Singing Competition Held May Day When the annual LaGrange College May Day Step-Singing Competition was held in the school gym, the audience was treated to singing as had not been heard in the competition since some years past. The judges had a difficult decision to make and this problem was evident as two groups tied for the first place award. The Baptist Student Union, directed by Cody (Spec) Clark, and Wesley Fellowship, directed by Jennie McCook, tied for first place as both groups turned in a musical yet entertaining program. The music performed varied great- ly this year in that each group turned in good performances of several differ- ent types of song. With the Baptist Student Union singing madrigals, the Association of Black Collegians singing old gospel standards, and the Wesley Fellowship performing tunes that muppets sing, the audience got a taste of practically any music they preferred. The name "step-singing" has been traditionally given to the competition since it had been held actually on the steps of the Dobbs building ever since anyone can remember. As a private girls institution, LaGrange College had been noted for the performances turned in by their various singing groups. The competition had to be moved indoors this year as threatening skies prevailed for most of the day before, and into the morning before the competition, but that seemed to be no problem, if not an asset, since the acoustics in a gymnasium are somewhat more reflective than those found outside. Jasinski Wesley Fellowship singer Gary Hughes "lets it all hang out" during his performance with the group. Wesley performed an entertaining medley of tunes from the popular TV series, "The Muppet Show."

The 1980 Quadrangle A-25 Carder Claims King Of Hill Title Dazzling, tantalizing beauties were the bill of fare on the evening of the 1980 King of the Hill competition held in the LaGrange College gym, spon- sored by Alpha Omicron Pi sorority. Contestants were selected by var- ious campus organizations and prepared talent performances for the audience to enjoy. The audience also applauded the swimsuit and evening gown competitions. Judging the event were Dr. Sam Hornsby, Dr. Muriel Williams, and Dr. David Naglee. The talent portion of the competi- tion turned out to be the most entertaining of the events since all contestants evidently rehearsed endless hours in order to prepare their dance, song, cheer, or even bath to enlighten the audience. Carder astounded the audience in the talent competition especially as he gave a vocal interpretation of the musical group "The Cars," singing, "You're Just What I Needed." Sponsored by the Pi Kappa Phi Little Sisters, contestant Andy Kerr shows the judges just how badly he is seeking the title. A-26 The 1980 Quadrangle G.

Not only were the actors and tech crews satisfied, but it could also be said that audiences attending any or all of the regular season shows were extremely pleased and/or entertained by what they saw at Price Theater. Starting the season with "The Twin Menaechmi," the repertoire included "Gypsy," "Livin' De Life," "Lady's Not for Burning," "Shadow Box," and ended with the Civil War musical, "Shenandoah." Not only was a variety of stage show presented, but students in the department were exposed to extremely popular and not so popular drama. m ' ' W \ T.

HE were w Must Go On s though we d with rain.' The 1980 Quadrangle Some Bow Out, Spirits Not Dampened: Soggy Floats Roll In the words of 1980 Student Government President Ron Dooley, "It seems as though this SGA was plagued with rain." This generally was the case with every outdoor event the SGA sponsored or had anything to do with. The Homecoming Parade was no exception. In addition to the disadvantage caused by threatening rain, the parade was hindered from the beginning since it was planned to be held on the same day and same time that the Christmas Seals Road Race was scheduled. A couple thousand runners might well converge on LaFayette Squre at the same time some fifty parade entries were rounding the corner there. As it turned out, it rained and misted all morning long, and the parade chairpersons were still trying to decide whether the parade would go on two hours before it was scheduled to begin. Hoping for the best, or at least a miracle to keep the rain from dampening the event, the entry numbers were staked along Forrest Avenue, and the floats and various other entries lined up according to the master plan devised by the Homecoming Parade Committee. (Who was that guy with the megaphone and the perpetually stalling mo-ped, anyway?) Amazingly, the rain held off, and the sun really looked like it would make an appearance. The parade went on as planned. The local high school bands played, illegal entries joined the procession, spectators got comfortable on both sides of Vernon Street, and the Quad's entry overheated. (Oh well, at least we entered!) The Phi Mu's won the best float award, and the Kappa Delta pledges won the best car award with something that resembled a frog. Tremendous support for the Homecoming Parade was realized as nearly every active campus organization made some sort of entry. Alumni and present students alike got a chance to see each organization in full color. Citizens of LaGrange also showed their support by not only fully cooperating with committee members, but also by turning out to view the event. The guy with the shorts and red windbreaker directed the entries to the end. of the route, and, in an editorial short, the parade was enjoyed by all who attended. The 1980 Quadrangle A-35 The 1980 Quadrangle A-39 Unusually Short First Half of Game Fails to Phase What if they held a basketball game and the opposing team didn't show up? Well, LaGrange Panther fans got a chance to experience that situation on Homecoming weekend when the open- ing game of the season was to be played - and Piedmont College forgot to come. The spectators were there, the LC cheerleaders were on hand, the Circle K Club was scalping people on conces- sions, the radio and press people were there, but no Piedmont team. It seems that the coach of the Piedmont team thought the game was to be played that night - their bad. And if this situation wasn't bad enough, the Homecoming Court was supposed to be presented between halves of the game. The spectators were still there, the expectant parents were there, the photographers and various press officials were still there, but the court wasn't scheduled to show up for at least another hour or so later. How word got around to the court par- ticipants that the game was not to be is still not known. Surprisingly, though, the girls and their escorts showed up early for the event, and the court was presented as if the basketball game was never supposed to take place. The queen was crowned, the flowers were given away, the tears flowed, (real or faked is beside the point), and the publicity photo- graphs were shot for posterity. The spectators then retired to their appro- priate groups, and the weekend finished itself out with students and alumni doing pretty much what they wanted to do. athy Wrig 1980 Homecomin Queen A-40 The 1980 Quadrangle Kathy Harris | Claudia Hassell Alpha Omicron Pi Alpha Omicron Pi Pledges Michelle Hayes Alpha Psi Omega Jean Golden Alpha Tau Theta The 1980 Quadrangle A-41 Betty Rosser Jan Hannah Association of Black Collegians Baptist Student Union Debbie Battin Jayne Lewis Circle K Delta Tau Delta Kathy Reese Lisa Pearson Teresa Bell Glenda Aldridge Hawkes Dormitory Henry Hall The 1980 Quadrangle A-43 Dianne Covil Indies Merry Maxwell Kappa Delta Pledges Susan Crouch Kappa Sigma Donna Ritter Kappa Sigma Pledges A-44 The 1980 Quadrangle Karen Thompson Kappa Sigma Stardusters Susan Cook LC Cheerleaders Shawna Howell Men's Athletic Association Jennifer Bullock Panhellenic Council The 1980 Quadrangle A-45 Laurie Jones Phi Beta Lambda Lisa Weems Phi Mu Suzan McClannahan Phi Mu Pledges Amy Miller Pi Kappa Phi A-46 The 1980 Quadrangle Becky Davis Pi Kappa Phi Little Sisters Carol Andrews Quadrangle Julie Ivey Pi Kappa Phi Pledges Cindy Cobb Rotaract The 1980 Quadrangle A-47 Lisa Brumbeloe Wesley Fellowship Berlenthia Jones Zeta Phi Beta A-48 The 1980 Quadrangle shoot it serve it - pass it*W* belt it t splash it f whack it Z slap it $ dunk it 9 bounce it # freeze it wspin it w cream it 9 chop it |p wet it # dribble it lob it hit it ace it # loft it hang it J clobber it bang it # center it r980 Quadrangle The 1980 Quadrangle B-65 The 1980 Quadrangle B-67 The 1980 Quadrangle B-71 tlu> 1980 Quadrangle 11 7;> Thv 1980 Quadrangle B 77 The 1980 Quadrangle B 79 Tho L980 Quadrangle B-81 Joyce Simpson - Business Administration Greg Carson - Political Science C-88 The 1980 Quadrangle Ramey Abernathy Andrew Adams Kim Adam9on Chuck Adcock Russell Addison Jennifer Albright Glenda Aldridge Jeff Aliff Jose Alvarenga Jeannie Anderson Susan Anderson Carol Andrews Joe Andrews Connie Appling Ed Auerbach Mike Barbee Jana Barrett Sally Barton Theresa Basilico Charles Belflower Sally Bell Teresa Bell Janice Bible Billy Bickerstaff Cindy Bird Eugenia Bishop Darlene Bivins Annette Blanchard Nancy Blankenship Rebecca Bloodworth Tony Bostardi Aaron Bowie Rosalyn Boyd Majorie Boykin Penny Boykin The 1980 Quadrangle C-89 Grant Bozeman Becky Bradley Sonya Brake Edward Branham Emory Breed Pam Breed Hilda Bridwell Hal Brim Michael Brown Susan Brown Beth Bruette Lisa Brumbeloe Jeff Buchanan Terri Buchanan Jennifer Bullock Benny Burdette Bartha Byrd Terri Byrd Kevin Cain Johnnie Cameron Jay Carlton Jill Carlton Paula Carter Cheryl Castleberry Denise Chance Louise Cherry Barry Clark Sarah Clemons Maryjane Cleveland Cindy Cobb Dawn Coble Sandra Cochran Donnie Cockrel Mel Coe Laura Coleman The 1980 Quadrangle Jimmy Cooley Jane Cooley Carol Ann Copeland Paula Cosgrove Kenny Cosper Dianne Covil Linda Cowan Melanie Cowart Charlie Cox James Cox Charlie Crawford Margaret Crawl Jill Crites Cynthia Crowe Lee Crowe Becky Davis Mary Davis Charles Dean Sharon Dekle Craig DeLoach Margie Dixon Andrew Dodgen Lisa Dodgen Diane Dommisse Drew Duda Derrick Dukes Elaine Durham Tony Earl Paula Earley Paula Echols Jimmy Ector Mark Edwards Caroline Ellis Jon Elmore Paula Emmick The 1980 Quadrangle C-91 Wade Ergle Jim Estes Julia Evans Susan Ferguson Cathy Fields Crystal Floyd Pam Fortenberry Yukiko Furukawa Ronald Futch Jan Gait Terri Gantt Christine Gardner Lisa Garner Roy Gates Kathy Golden Lee Anne Goldin Tim Gooden Susan Goodwin Steve Grantham Rommy Gresley Jan Grice David Griffin Julie Griffin Libby Griffith Sid Griffith Cheryl Gunnett Jody Hale Colleen Hall Douglas Hall Purdy Hall Jan Hannah Beth Harmon Kim Harper Sharon Harper Steve Harrelson C-92 The 1980 Quadrangle Kathy Harris Kathy Harris Becky Harris Willie Harris Denise Hartley Claudia Hassell Henry Hayes Cynthia Hanes Carlos Heard Kathy Heard Julie Hearn Charles Heidman Nat Hellstrom Paige Hertweck Weaver Hickerson Nancy Hickmar Charlotte Hilbers Cheryl Hines Jan Hines Elizabeth Hobby Ellen Holdridge Ronda Holloway Rhonda Hood Robin Hookei Deidre Howard w 1 . < Jeff Howard Tom Howard Les Howell Carol Howington Lydia Hoxsie Q Donna Huffstutler Gary Hughes Laura Hume Gene Hunt Freida Huntei ^1 Jv r i The 1980 Quadrangle C-93 Julie Ivey Yutaro Iwamura Richard Jabaley Vester Jackson Julie Jacobson Anita Jahkola Cheryl James Greg Jasinski Jane Jenkins Jan Jernigan r m IT \sj**.

The 1980 Quadrangle D-129 Phi Mu Sorority Phi Mu, the second oldest secret organization for women in America, was founded at Wesleyan College, Macon, Georgia, on January 4, 1852. The formal announcement was made two months later, and Phi Mu still celebrates her founders each March 4. First called Philomathean Society, Phi Mu has extended throughout the country and has now over 175 collegiate chapters and more than 10,000 members. The Phi Mu motto "To lend to those less fortunate a helping hand" has been a meaningful aspect of her heritage. Since 1963, Phi Mu has worked with project HOPE, a principle activity of the People to People Foundation, Inc. of Washington D.C., to extend health education on an international scale. The mission closely parallels the Phi-Mu state-wide project mission, and every year Phi Mu sponsors a fund raising event to aid project HOPE. This year's plans included selling Pumpkin Pops at Halloween and conducting a Skate-a-Thon. The Washboard Band, Phi Mu's national trademark during Rush, performs for parties, nursing homes, and the Antique Car Club. The Band was also an important feature at Parents Day, when the Phi Mu ladies D.

In addition, Parents were treated to an ice cream party and a night club act. An important part of Phi Mu is the formal Carnation Ball. This year's ball was held at the Atlanta Marriott with a performance by the band "Georgia." A Formal reception was held the preceding night at LaGrange's historical Bellevue Mansion. Phi Mu Sorority is represented in all campus fraternities by little sisters. There are Phi Mus involved in many campus activities including the drama and art departments, cheerleading, tennis team and intramural sports. Kathy Golden, Phi Mu president, will represent the Kappa Phi chapter at the annual convention in Indianapolis, Indiana this year. Phi Mu officers include: Kathy Golden - President; Jan Jernagan - Vice-President; Tammy Smith - Secretary; Melanie Smith - Treasurer; Linda Cowan - Panhellinic Representative; Dana Newton - Membership director; and Carol Howington - Phi director. 0-132 The 1980 Quadrangle MAA/WAA Sports Events G.

E-142 The 1980 Quadrangle "Disastrous" Season Plagues Panther Netters HI The 1980 Panther men's tennis team was indeed plagued with a disastrous season as noted by their 0-14 total season record. Coach Hugh Corless kept spirits high in spite of the tough year, and the team felt that even though they had not won a single meet, the team benefitted from the experience of the season. Returning senior Bob Mainor provided an inspiring year as he finished with a 6-8 singles record, the best total of the team. Second seeded player Greg Carson saw a 2-12 season. Perhaps the disappointing season is attributable to the fact that the team had no strength within its depth. Returning players show some possibilities for next year, especially Freshman Charles Dean, who finished 2-7 on the year. The team looks forward to an improved effort during the 1981 season, even though they are losing the two top-seeded players who are seniors this year. The Quad would like to express our gratification to Floyd Collins of the LC Public Relations Department and Mrs. Mae Towns for providing the statistics for men's tennis, as well as all the other sports stats.

Supporting a 5-5 season record, several of their meets were lost by only a couple of matches. Newcomer Terri Gantt led the crew at number one singles. Terri finished the season with a 7-3 singles record. It was one of the strongest singles record at LC in the past several years. Veteran player, Eleanor Rogers enjoyed a 5-5 season with a 1-1 doubles record. Eleanor has long been one of the feared girls in the women's tennis conference. Sophomore Leslie Knight rounded out the top three with a 3-4 record in the singles division. Also another "rookie" was Merry Maxwell who finished the season with a singles record of 5-4. Coach Ainsworth looks into the future for Merry with bright hopes. Sandra Gibson (4-4), Joy Naglee (4-5), Renee Oldham (1-0), Mary Davis (1-2), and Ronda Holloway (2-0) all enjoyed a favorable season. Audiences were quite reactive to the shots and also the shapes that the women's team provided us with. All eyes will look forward to another successful season for the girls next year. D.

Fields Track Team For The In Several Years For the first time in several years, a track & field team was grouped by LC to compete in the G.I.A.C. conference. Coach Phil Williamson led the team to two meets, one at West Georgia College in Carrollton and the other in Rome, Georgia. Considering that the team was fairly out of shape and that it was the first time that several of the members had competed in a competitive fashion, coach Williamson stated that he was very pleased with the performance of the team. Several members of the LC Cross-Country team participated in the meet along with M.A.A. Star James Sparks and freshman Mark White. Mark has run in several high school track meets and shows good potential. James expressed a certain interest in throwing the javelin and faired quite well in the competition. Runners Moody McCall, Bob Mainor, Jeff Reames, and Ryohei Hoshi gave their best efforts and showed their opposition some stiff competition. Basketball standouts Skip Starr and Arnold Woodyard also participated in the track program. G. Jasinski Moody McCall grimaces after a grueling almost marathon-like race. Pictured above are members of the 1980 LaGrange College track team; Front row: Jeff Reames, Ryohei Hoshi. Back row: Bob Mainor, Moody McCall, Mark White, James Sparks and Coach Williamson.

Greg Carson grabs his placement card as he finishes a well run race. Jeff Reames reaches for that all important time placement card. Though some unorganized practices and time trials were encountered, Coach Hugh Corless saw a spirit and dedication among the memhers of the cross-country team that was unmatched by opposing runners, however, as the record stands, the spirit and dedication are not the only ideals that are needed to place well in the standings. Good hard roadwork and conditioning are also essential to the making of a strong cross- country team. E-148 The 1980 Quadrangle B -Bailers Finish Seas Finishing the 1979-80 basketball season with a 15-16 record, the Panthers did not realize a 20-game winning year as they did in 1978-79 play. Three '79 starters returned, as well as six experienced players and seven newcomers joined the Panthers. Coach Phil Williamson noted at the beginning of the season, "With NAIA 25 All-Star Skip Starr, key players Zip Woodyard and Todd Whitsitt, and Brad Kenemer, Chris Dixon, Rob Walker, Ken Smith, Nat Hellstrom, and Cleats (Greg) Nable back after providing valuable service last year, plus the fine group of new players, we feel that the Panthers will be a very interesting team to watch this year. The seven newcomers included Mike Darnell, junior forward from Springboro, Ohio; Mitch Hanson, freshman center from Longwood, Florida; Henry Hayes, freshman forward from Stone Mountain; Wayne Johnson, freshman guard from LaGrange; Willie Maddox, junior forward also from LaGrange; Bill Sexton, sophomore guard from Selma, Alabama; and Carl Sills, freshman forward from Cuthbert. 15 Wins, 16 Losses 1980 Panther Roster (04) Bill Sexton Guard 511" Selma, Alabama (10) Carl Sills Forward 6'4" Cuthbert, Georgia (12) Chris Dixon Guard 6'4" Walton, Indiana (14) Wayne Johnson Guard 6'4" LaGrange, Georgia (20) Ken Smith Guard 6'4" Tallapoosa, Georgia (22) Willie Maddox Forward 6'4" LaGrange, Georgia (30) Nat Hellstrom Guard 6'4" Gainesville, Georgia (32) Arnold Woodyard Forward 6'4" LaGrange, Georgia (34) Rob Walker Forward 6'6" Bremen, Georgia (40) Todd Whitsitt Guard 6'2" Oxford, Georgia (42) Mitch Hanson Center 6'7" Longwood, Florida (44) Greg Nable Center 6'6" Tallahassee, Florida (50) Mike Darnell Forward 6'5" Springboro, Ohio (52) Edward Starr Forward 6'5" Summerville, Georgia (54) Brad Kenemer Center 6'7" Dalton, Georgia (00) Henry Hayes Forward 6'3" Stone Mountain, Georgia D.

During the 1979-80 school year, Hoshi decided to show his devotion to the LaGrange College Cross Country Team. Not only did he participate in all team events, but pursued his own goals in the field of running by participating in various running events in the area. Whether by bus or car, Hoshi always arrived at each event he chose to and performed with incredible devotion to a cause he evidently felt very worthy. To list some of these events in which he participated may to some degree demonstrate the devotion Ryohei Hoshi lives by. These are: the Peachtree Road Race, held in Atlanta, Ga.; the Stone Mountain Park Run, held at Stone Mountain, Ga.; the Newnan Festival Run, held at Newnan, Ga.; the Barnesville Road Race, held at Barnesville, Ga.; the Chattahoochee River Run, held at Lanett, Ala.; the Christmas Seals Road Race, held here in LaGrange; the LaGrange Track Club Run, held at Gay, Ga.; and finally, the 3rd Annual Savannah Marathon, held at Savannah, Ga. (To assist those not familiar with track events, the marathon event is 26.2 miles. Hoshi finished 318 out of 700 entries.) Exhibiting devotion as a way of life, LaGrange College Senior Ryohei Hoshi crosses the finish line at the Chattahoochee River Run held October 13, 1979. He finished 37th out of the 300 entries. The 1980 Quadrangle H-21 1 Side -Show Highlights Panther Games Striking an informal pose. Coach Williamson usually provided a great sideline show for roundball spectators who attended Panther games. At the outset of the 1980 season, Panther Basketball Coach Phil Williamson an- nounced that his team would go into the new season "with optimism, ready to challenge a very tough and competitive schedule." Well, as the season record revealed, the schedule was a bit too tough for the Panthers as they battled their way through each game. The season was not hopeless, however, because the sideline antics provided by Coach Wil- liamson sometimes proved to be more interesting than the game being played on the court. He stood - he sat - he threw his chair around - he yelled - he screamed - he got technical fouls called on himself, and consequently, on his team, regularly - he spoke anxiously to the officials - in short, he provided a great show of his own. The Quad wishes to acknow- ledge all the work done by the Panther team and also all the work logged by Coach William- son. Better luck next year, guys! H-212 The 1980 Quadrangle After enduring a year of higher education of LaGrange College, this "Green Man" expressed student sentiment better than anyone else the Quad photographed this year. The look, the thought process, it's all there. Maybe we can all take a lesson in relaxation from this prime exhibition. mWALSWORTH PUBLISHING COMPANY r)
