With as much attention
the new alcohol policy con
cerning student organization
funds has created it is in
teresting to see that it seems
to follow a trend that is
spreading across the country.
Not only are the smaller
private schools cracking
down on alcohol, but many
big state universities are im
plementing the same regula
tion.
According to the new signs
posted around the stadium,
there won’t be any more
drinking at University of
Alabama football games this
year. Campus police and
local law enforcement of
ficials have geared up to
watch fans for telltale signs
of carrying booze to the
game.
At Notre Dame, there’s
another tough new anti
drinking policy. Starting this
fall, students can no longer
bring alcohol onto university
property.
Indiana University is going
even further. Universitv of
ficials are making unan-~
nounced “spot checks” for
alcohol at the public areas of
campus dorms and fraternity
houses to enforce a new no-
booze-on-campus rule.
Colleges and universities
around the country this fall
are imposing tough new
drinking policies, and are
creating new means of mak
ing the policies stick.
Students who run afoul of
the new rules typically face
disciplinary actions
escalating from reprimands
to suspensions, with man
datory attendance at alcohol
education classes. Some
schools are tougher: Notre
Damers caught violating the
school drinking policy are
liable for a $100 minimum
fine.
Not all students are happy
about it. Indiana’s student
government is inviting stu
dent complaints against the
‘raids”, worrying about
students’ privacy rights.
But the new wave of anti
drinking policies has yet to
evoke much student response
one way or the other.
The administrators’
abrupt fervor follows drink
ing law changes in dozens of
states over the last three
years.
Dizzy Gilespie Comes Home
By BILL LIDE
Dizzy Gillespie, the world
renowned jazz trumpeteer,
returned home to his roots in
Laurinburg to start the
works for a proposed Jazz
Hall of Fame that would be
built in the Laurinburg area.
Gillespie, who is actually
from nearby Cheraw, S.C.,
talked briefly to a large
crowd on the Belk Center
Patio about his proposed
plans. He attended the
Laurinburg Institute and
feels that he should “give
something back to the com
munity” where he grew up.
Gillespie, along with the
three other musicians that
make up the quartet he is
currently playing with,
answered questions from
curious students and
members of the Laurinburg
community.
The trumpeteer’s plans on
the proposed building include
a possible tour of fund
raising concerts and a dona
tion drive that would sell
$5000 charter mernberships
to the Hall of Fame to
businesses and other large
corporations.
'Gillespie is currently
featured on Stevie Wonder’s
new hit “Do, I Do” and
believes that “Stevie owes
me one.” He said that he has
already received partial con
firmation from Wonder and
Chuck Mangione to play
■wit¥ him at the fund raising
concerts.
.Gillespie is currently on tour
in the U.S.and is heading for
Europe in the near future..
On the subject of Europe
Gillespie said that the Euro--
pean jazz fai)s are much
more aware of the jazz world
than their American counter
parts and he believes that
Americans “Gotta be hip
over here about our own
music.”
Gillespie also emphasized
the importance of a com
munity becoming aware of
the music in their surroun
dings. Lastly he said that the
people of Laurihburg owe it
to themselves to bring the
jazz center to their town and
that they should be suppor
tive of the Scotland County
Center for Arts so that Ihe
dream can become a reality.

Get The Picture
By NANCY HOGG
Do you want to be in the
flash...be really where it is
at? Well, be at Belk’s patio
on Tuesday, October 26th at
11:20. As part of Hat Day
the Art Guild is sponsoring
THE BIG picture. What is
THE BIG picture? WelU it
going to be a photographic
phenomenon. The picture
will consist of each person in
the entire St. Andrjg^s com
munity; students, dogs,
maintenance, faculty, ad
ministration, cats, horses,
and anything else tnat
qualifies as a participant m
our environment.
Tradition has always been
an aspect that has kept a
community together. That is
the mere fact of why we are
bringing back THE BIG pic
ture to St. Andrews. The last
school picture that was taken
in 1975. Therefore, since this
is such a unique and diverse
group, we knew this would
be the best group to reinitiate
this idea.
The St. Andrews com
munity consists of a variety
of people that are doing alot
of different things. We
would like to get together
Jazz legend Dizzy Gillespie
and see who everybody is.
What do you
think?...“There are alot of
ugly people I would like to
have a picture of,” said
James Linehan. “Better than
a poke in the eye with a sharp
stick,” said Cleve Zahner.
“Everybody should show up,
it sounds like a lot of fun
said Betsy Brown. “Great
idea, can I bring my basket
ball,” asked J.R. Sutton.
“Only if I can stand in
the front,” said Natajie
Christophe. “I would have to
be in the middle,” said Buck.
“That’s nice, will it fit,” said
Amelia Suryaatmadja. So,
get in the picture on Tues-
Iday, and hats off to you if
you ^ there.
