page 6 THE VOICE APRIL. 1979 FSU JAZZ BAND by Edwin DeVaughn On the morning of April 2nd, the Jazz Band will be leaving FSU to begin a week long tour. This tour has been brought about by hard work and much practice. The band has been together going on two years this semester. We have played for many dif ferent kinds of affairs to get a start. For example, basket ball games, talent shows and even for the dedication of the city courthouse. The band began as a small eight piece combo and has grown to a big band. On the morning of April 2nd, the band will make its first stop at Hampton In stitute. Hampton is the Alma Mater of our Director, Dianne Lyle. From there we go to I.C. Norcomb High School in Virginia. On Wednesday, we will play at Maggie Walker High School and Armstrong in Richmond, Virginia. Thursday the bus will stop in Philadelphia for a very important concert in West Philadelphia High School. I guess you wonder why West Philadelphia is so important. The reason is seven members of the band attended West Philadelphia from 72-77. These members are: Edwin DeVaughn, Bob Hayes, John Smith, Ralph Floyd, William Wright, George Twyman and Silver White. These members are also founders of the Jazz Band. The next stop is across the bridge to Camden, New Jersey. Camden High also has alumni in the band...Ryan Bates, Then we go back to Philadelphia to play at University High. Saturday, we are on our way to Shaw University to play in their Annual Jazz Festival. Many other schools will attend this festival. After this week of travel we will head back to FSU where we’ll give our Spring Concert. We would like all students to come uut and hear and see what this tour has done for us. I want to thank a few people for the help we needed to take this tour. First I would like to thank Mr. James Evans, Dr. Hatcher and THE JAZZ BAND Chancellor Lyons. Most of all I must thank Dianne Lyle for pushing us to a higher level of performance and education. Dianne is in her second year of teaching at FSU. Dianne received her Masters in Music from Bowling Green and is a native of St. Louis. I could go on and on about her achievements but action speaks louder than words. Keep up the good work in the name of FSU Dianne. Vaginitis: Few Women Escape It BOOK REVIEW Pulling Your Own Strings, Dr. Wayne W. Dyer. New York, Thomas Y. Crowell Company, 1978. 262pp. $8.95.

Chapter 4 I recommend especially to all the Comparison Trap,” Dyer notes at the beginning, “In a world of individuals, com parison is a senseless tivity.” ac- Dyer has addressed the question of victimization in a well executed and provocative manner.

Voyage of spirit and mind into Alaskan wilderness. Every year over five million women develop a vaginal infection which brings them to a physician. Vaginitis may occur at any time from childhood to old age, but it is most common in women of childbearing age. An ab normal discharge is the major symptom this is often ac companied by intense itching and a burning sensation. There is more than one type of vaginitis and the in fection can usually be traced to a type of bacteria or fungal vnfeot\or\, or \n older women to hormonal changes. In recent years an allergy to vaginal sprays and wearing of overly- tight underwear made of synthetic materials have been reported to contribute to irritation and infection. Unfortunately, there is no way to eliminate the possibility of developing vaginitis completely. However, some preventive measures are possible and the following suggestions have proven effective:-(-Bathe daily, gently cleansing the vaginal area with a soft, clean washcloth. Avoid strong detergent wash products. -fAdhere to directions for douching. If your preference is for a disposable douche, consider one that holds a full 12 ounces of fluid. This is the amount recommended by many gynecologists and other physicians as a minimum for thorough cleansing. Trichotine is one that contains no perfumes and is reported to relieve itching and odor. Because it is disposable, the possibility of reinfection from a previously used nozzel is eliminated. -t-Keep the area clean and dry. For excessive perspiration, talcum powder is frequently helpful. +Pantyhose, panties, panty girdles and jeans are known to contribute to vaginitis wh n worn too tight. For a per sistant problem, try looser garments, preferably of cotton which allows air to circulate. -(-Avoid wearing damp bathing suits for prolonged periods. -t-Maintain ood toilet habits, in particular wiping from front to back or away from the vagina. +Avoid bubble baths, feminine hygiene sprays, perfumed tampons and other such substances that may be irritating or provoke an allergic reaction. -I-Thoroughly cleanse disphragms, contraceptive foam applicators, and other such items that may become contaminated. A small amount of vaginal discharge is usually present in any woman and is a part of being normal. The time for concern is when there is a sudden change of odor, color or amount of discharge, or if there are other accompanying symptoms. Few women escape having vaginitis and most experience it more than once in their lifetime. ASK US 7. The Insiders, by Rosemary Rogers. (Avon, $2.50,; and loves of beautiful TV anchorwoman: fiction.

DeAngelis Campus Digest News Service According to a recent poll conducted by the Harris Polling Co., most of the nation’s worries are a result of inflation. People are feeling the pinch in their pocketbooks and are reported willing to settle for some drastic changes to bring prices under control. The Harris survey reports that some individuals would be willing to settle for smaller increases in their salaries if they would also receive some hope that prices would not increase as quickly. Lou Harris said that this attitude surprises him because it is a turn from the previously materialistic goals of most Americans. Part of this can probably be at tributed to the behavior of American big business. The same poll showed that only 12 percent of Americans felt that business would do the right thing if left unregulated. This shows that perhaps Americans are reordering tmeir priorities toward the profit motive. The siu'vey also reported that Americans were more willing to tolerate change in society, both on economic and social issues. However, the trust that Americans have in the institutions that bring about these changes, specifically government and big business has fallen to its lowest level in years, the survey concluded. an equivalent number of quality points. If you com pleted 60 semester hours of credit with an equivalent number of quality points, you are considered a sophomore.
