THE COUGAR CRY, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1974 — PAGE 3 Richard W. Jones, Security, Administrative Services. KNOW THIS FACE By John Cashion He’ll know yours — he’ll also know your tag number and your parking permit number. And he will give you a ticket. This is Richard Jones (DEP UTY DAWG, “The W.C.C. Un mounted Police” “write-em-up- Richard” “Campus Cop” “Red neck Ranger” and “Expletive Deleted”). He’s no good; he’s got it in for you; he’d give his wife or mother a ticket. He’s unreasonable, and he will put a ticket on you in a Minnesota minute, and God Almighty can’t get you out of it. He gets his kicks writing tickets. Now you have been exposed to “Jurisdic tion Jones” and you will hear all these things many times in the next year. Since you know all the bad things — and in keeping with the policy of this newspaper, we wish to expose you to the other side of the coin. Richard Jones has one of the toughest jobs on this campus. At least it’s more subject to in spection than most jobs — ^nd he catches HELL. His job sounds pretty simple; “To main tain security and order; to in clude enforcing rules of the college.” Most of his head aches come from the parking lot. And he really doesn’t ask that much. The rules (laws) are really pretty simple. (You got a copy of them—Read ’Em.) Know the rules—do right and you should never have a prob lem. I’ve found him to be fair (I’ve gotten a bunch of tickets —but never one I didn’t de serve. (It just takes me longer to learn than it does most people.) Another good point —^ “Ri diculous Richard” has a really good rapport with the local law. When the SGA sponsors a dance or school get-together, Richard lets them know in ad vance that he has everything under control, and they stay away, mainly because he doesn’t have any trouble on these oc casions. It is nice to know they respect him enough to let him handle it. Don’t sell the man short. He’s really a “Good-Ole-Boy.” Just act (and park) like you’re supposed to, and you’ll have no problems. Steelman Is Vets Rep. By Donna Forbes A new face with turquoise eyes is on campus, that of Jerry D. Steelman, and he is WCC’s new Veterans Education and Training Representative. Twenty-five year old Mr. Steelman has been married for six years. Recently graduated from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro with a Bachelor of Arts in English, he has only been in town for a few weeks. Jerry was reared in the triad area near High Point. This is his first position with the Veterans Administra tion. He will be at WCC four days a week and at Surry Com munity College. At present, he is also trying to arrange to be in his office one night a week for the convenience of those veterans who are otherwise in volved during the day. Mr. Steelman stated that the purpose for his being at WCC is to handle check problems and to answer questions con cerning educational assistance. The Veterans Administration is, of course, a national pro gram with thirty-three repre sentatives in North Carolina alone. The program has re cently been expanded because it was felt that there was a def inite need for faster service. This problem has been some what alleviated by daily calls to the regional offices in Winston- Salem. Mr. Steelman will be more than happy for all of you veterans to drop by and talk to him about any problems you might have with veterans as sistance. DONT FORGET BACK TO SCHOOL DANCE Monday, September 9 HARRY DEAL and THE GALAXIES AU REVOIR NEW FACES AT WCC Fall Quarter will bring a number of new faces to the in structional staffs of Wilkes Community College. In the General Studies Di vision, Dr. Robert Mayer an nounces two new additions: an English instructor, Mrs. Sharon Kindt, and a music instructor, Mr. Jerry Bangle. Mrs. Kindt, a native of Seattle, Washington, taught music at ASU as she worked toward the Ed.S. Degree. She received her BA Degree from East Central State in Oklahoma and her MA from the Univer sity of Michigan. Mrs. Kindt has spent time in British Col umbia as a wilderness camp counsellor and during the past summer, she and her husband backpacked in Peru. She en joys playing the cello, back packing, and bee-keeping and is active in sports. Her husband, Allen, a con cert pianist, is now in New York exploring the Pop world of music. Across the desk from Mrs. Kindt sits an old acquaintance of the Kindts, MR. JERRY BANGLE, who has spent the past two years in Boone attend ing ASU where he earned the MA in Music Theory. Before that, he taught elementary strings in Atlanta, Georgia. MR. JERRY BANGLE MUSIC Jerry received his BA in Music Theory Composition from East Carolina. He and his wife, Penny, have two children, An gela, 13, and Michael, 3. Here at WCC he will be an orchestra teacher and will help instruct the chorus and the band. In addition, he will start a basic course to include such areas as arranging and com posing. Mr. Joe Austell, director of the Division of Physical Science, has informed the COUGAR CRY of three new comers in his department. THOMAS HOPKINS will be an instructor in electromech anics. A graduate of New River Community College in Dublin, Virginia, Mr. Hopkins received his Bachelor of Technology De gree from ASU in May. He is a navy veteran. While serving a recent in ternship under Mr. Austell, Mr. Hopkins developed an in-service training program for Abitibi in Roaring River. The program was so successful that it is be ing offered to other industries in the area. Mr. Hopkins and his wife, Rita, who is librarian at C. B. Eller School, plan to make their home in the Wilkesboro area. MR. AL STANLEY will be in charge of the radio broadcast- i n g program. Mr. Stanley brings with him seventeen years of service in the broadcasting industry. He has been news- gatherer, announcer, program mer, salesman, and manager/ owner. A candidate for the Master’s Degree in Radio/TV, from UNC-Chapel Hill, Mr. Stanley has held positions in Arizona and Georgia as well as in the Carolinas. Before com ing to WCC, he was an assist ant to Dr. Wes Wallace, Chair- (Continued On Page Five) What do you do when a mem ber of the WCC family says, “I’ve gotta be going now?” You resist the impulse to say, “No, you can’t do it!” You swallow the lump in your throat. You extend a hand, give a pat on the shoulder, and say “AU REVOIR!” (Then you have a bawl). JUDY HOLLERS JUDY HOLLERS — executive secretary for the General Studies Division, has become especially well-known to the COUGAR CRY staff. She’s the lady who typed neat manu scripts, passed on helpful tips for layout, and enabled us to meet deadlines. If you don’t get another newspaper for a long time, you’ll know we can’t make it without her! Judy was selected from a number of applicants to be sec retary/research assistant to Dr. Elmo Roesler in Institutional Research at Appalachian. She and husband, Kyle, have moved to Boone, and, for now, Kyle will commute to his job as diesel mechanic at Holly Farms. A Wilkes Community College graduate with both the clerk- typist Diploma and the A.A.S. Degree in Secretarial Science, Mrs. Hollers has been employed here since August of ’72. Judy says, “I think WCC is a wonderful school where the instructors care about their stu dents.” SHERRY ROBERTS Another executive secretary MISS SHERRY ROBERTS, from the Department of Busi ness and Commerce, is going to ASU as a senior in the Bachelor of Technology Pro gram. Sherry has been with WCC since 1969, when she came as a student and continued as both student and employee until she completed her A.A.S. Degree and her junior year as a part- time student at Appalachian. After completing her degree in Business Education, Sherry plans to teach. Her parting comment: “I love it here, and I hope to come back as often as I can.” DR. WILLIAM F. SNYDER, former Research Coordinator for the college, left on August 15 to become Dean of Instruc tion at Wytheville (Va.) Com munity College. While at Wilkes, Dr. Snyder conducted a survey of local businesses and industries to de- BILL SNYDER t e r m i n e projected personnel needs. His findings will bene fit the college as it attempts to schedule courses to meet man power needs. Dr. Snyder holds a Ph.D. from N. C. State. His family includes wife, Wilma, and two daughters, Kelly and Lucinda. The latter is a regular on the TV show “Scrunch.” Dr. Snyder, too, was compli mentary of Wilkes Community College and its personnel. JUANITA NOBLITT The staff was unable to inter view MRS. JUANITA (Nita) NOBLITT, who was PABX op erator and receptionist until August 8, when she left to be come a teacher at Mulberry Elementary School. For two years Mrs. Noblitt was full-time switchboard oper ator, but since July of last year, she has worked on the night shift only as she continu ed her education at Appa lachian. Mrs. Noblitt lives in West wood Hills. She has a daugh ter, Debbie, and two sons, Charlie and John. Debbie is studying at Asheville-Buncombe Technical Institute, while Char lie and John are students at Wilkes Central High School. JAN CAMPBELL The unhappy news that MRS. JAN CAMPBELL would be leaving soon was announced in the previous edition. The COUGAR CRY staff is grateful to Jan for her quick and clever illustrations for a number of newspaper articles. She leaves WCC with masses of media she has produced or assisted in producing. What can one say, Judy, Sherry, Bill, Nita and Jan? AU REVOIR! (And pass the Kleenex.)
