I PAGE 12 MISCELLANEOUS The Society Column This is the first article of a new Lance series about the social life at St. Andrews - parties, sporting events, special actitivities, etc. Most of you know what is happening in your own circle so we will attempt to give a broad overview of campus social life. Be merciful, this a feeble first at tempt. Here’s a glimpse of what some of us did over fall break: Abe VanWingerden, SGA vice- president, took the LSAT and went deep-sea fishing at Snead’s Fenry. A highlight of his trip was when he caught an alleged eight pound snap per, which he credits to his brother’s sea-sickness. His roommate, Lewis W. Hoggard, also took the LSAT. Both hope to attend law school, Abe at Duke and Lewis at UNC-Chapel Hill. Lewis decided to stray from the ordinary and get “gussied up” to take his girlfriend, Cassie Petrovic, to the Hope Ball. Abe and Lewis’ birthdays were the eighth and ninth of October. They celebrated with an all-guy party in their suite. Christopher Edwards and Anton Wiley were in attendance. No comment would be made as to the prescence or absence of alcoholic beverages at the gathering. Jacy Childs, a freshman Concord resident, stayed on campus for fall break. She reported spending many fun-filled evenings watching movies with Mike Bell and Todd Rice, hang ing out with Chris and Eddie, and doing homework. Wepushie^ formore details but she refused to comment on the record. Oliver Wilson of Winston-Salem Dorm went home to Greensboro for the weekend. He attended City-Stage, an annual festival in downtown Greensboro. He ate a lot of home- cooked meals and shot some hoops. When questioned further about the hoop-shooting he said,"Ya gotta stay in shape, ya know.” Miss Tina Carter Miss Sarah Cooper Miss Jane Karepenske On a more adventurous note, Marsha Hansen and Jason Rich spot ted two bears and six deer while back packing in the Smokies. They were disappointed that the Appalachian Trail was closed due to the budget crisis. Frequent rainfall dampened their clothes but not their spirits. On the way to Montreal to visit his grandparents, freshman David Allen Smith dropped sophomore Anne Wiesner off in Durham. When ques tioned on the status of their relation ship he replied, “Well, we’re kind of dating.” David also went hang glid ing at Blowing Rock and ate a lot of home-cooked food, which he declared was a “feast” compared to SAGA. Clearly, the social event of the weekend was the wedding of former St. Andrews student Molly Warman to her boyfriend of three years, Ray Ruskin. Many St. Andrews students made the long journey to Maryland to attend the nuptials. Among those present were Jill Vamos,SharonFrain, Partice Barrentine, Chad Esposito, and Chris Walker. St. Andrews alums Judy Folmar and Linda Butler also made an appearance. Sharon, Judy, and Chad appreciated the warm hos pitality of S. A. alum Lee Huber who provided living accomodations for the weekend. The bridesmaids wore red and the bride wore a simple white McClintock dress. The wedding cake was topped by a princess kissing a big green frog with a top hat. Well, that’s what a few St. An droids did for fall break. Thanks for your patience with our first effon. If you have any suggestions or find out about any exciting, obscure campus events - call suite eight Concord, ext. 488. And remember, “We saw what you did and we know who you are.” Stolen Bikes Continued from Pg. 1 is your friend we won’t indict, unless you want to press charges.” Register your bike and make sure it is kept locked up. As Young ex plains, it makes a thief stop and think. He adds that the chain locks aren’t always secure, because they can eas ily be broken. He advises that a more secure lock, such as the horse-shoe type, is much better, “If a person wanted the bike they would have to a % 15 THAT SARflSlIWi T-« I YOU, National Service Continued from Pg. 7 "The president has a position that opposes compensation" for volunteer work," explained Sherraden, who has studied national service programs in nine countries and thinks compensa tion is vital to the success of a U.S. program. "The president has a somewhat elitist view of volunteerism," Sher raden said. Salisbury State student Hughes, for one, thinks "an incentive helps. A lot of students don't have the time to volunteer just for the sake of volun teering." Adds Houston's Belicove, "I think any opportunity to attend college at reduced cost is good, but I would not be supportive of the federal side of college aid changing." Here is a more detailed explana tion of the two bills going to confer ence: The Senate Version (S. 1430 passed in March) - Volunteer participants would receive vouchers worth $5,000 for each year of service. Vouchers could be used toward college, a first home or purchase of a small business. A "Thousand Points of Light Initia tive Foundation" would be set up to coordinate and encourage local serv ice programs. « The House Version (H.R. 4330 passed in September) - Bill would authorize $100 million next year to set up school and college programs that promote national service. The Education Dept, would grant $35 million to states and $25 million to individual campuses. Students performing full-time volunteer service after college would not have to pay back some of their student loans. Trustees Meeting KINEXUS Continued from Pg. 1 “KINEXUS gives our students access that they would never have otherwise, “ Matheson explains. “It is also cost-efficient for a company. They can put the criteria in the com puter and have an immediate print out without having to screen 2,000 resumes.” As Matheson stated, not only do the students save time and effort but, so do the companies. Money and time is saved on traveling or even mailing expenses that may be used for recruiting purposes or job hunting - with this new system it’s right at a person’s fingenips. “People like IBM and Johnson and Johnson would never come to Laurinburg for interviews.” Unlike many other computerized job recruiters that are out to make a profit, KINEXUS isn’t.“This system is not designed to make money,” notes Matheson. She feels that it is a useful tool especially for the college student who could be running low on money. Not only do seniors take advan tage of the system, but so can many other students looking for a summer job. KINEXUS is even available to the many alumnaae of St. Andrews. Matheson hopes to see more stu dents get involved with the compu terized system. Two computers are available on campus - one in the Career Planning and Placement Center and the other in the micro-computer lab of the library. The micro-computer lab is open during library hours. The career cen ter is open 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mon day through Friday, and until 7 p.m. on Tuesdays. use a hacksaw, or pick up and carry it away.” This takes more time and is more obvious that the bike is in the process of being stolen. Young admits that the stealing of bikes is not going to stop occurring. However, he believes that these sure fire tips will prove helpful, at least “It will make it an inconvenience for the thief.” ACROSS 1 Performs 5 Spirit 8 Shoshonean Indian 12 Shower 13 Indonesian 14 Imitated 15 Sea eagle 16 Wideawake 18 Fuss 19 Paid notice 20 Stalk 21 Kind of type: abbr. 23 Spanish article 24 Small island 26 Boxes 28 Poker slakes 29 Possesses 30 Greek letter 32 Foray 33 Haze 34 Chinese pagodas r 12 35 Cloth measure 36 Vessel 37 Meeting rooms 38 Rip 40 Microbe 41 Sun god 43 Article 44 Country of Asia 45 River in Siberia 47 Time gone by 49 Unit of Iraqi currency 51 Compass point 52 Essentially 55 Abound 56 Fondle 57 Bodies of water DOWN 1 Region 2 Brightly colored bird 3 Metal 4 Symbol for tin 5 Manservant 6 An article The Weekly Crnsswnrd Puzzle 7 Deface 8 Exclamation 9 New Deal agency: init. 1 24 25 41 42 ^■43 47 53 55 8 9 10 11 14 18 22 23 130 50 155" ■ 46 ■ 54 57 10 Support 11 Deity 16 The sweetsop 17 Gratuities 20 Winter vehicle 22 Symbol for tantalum 25 Long-legged bird 26 Sink in middle 27 Domain 28 Exist 29 Torrid 31 Beast of burden 33 In honor of 34 Mountain lake 36 Himalayan mammal 37 Vital organ 39 Babylonian deity 40 Assent to 41 Float 42 Chills and fever 44 Arrow poison 45 Sole 46 Tunisian rulers 48 Individual 50 Demon 51 Guido’s high note 53 Decimeter: abbr. 54 Hebrew month The Board of Trustees’ Annual Meeting will be October 25-26.

COUfGC PRESS SJRVlCt Shelters Continued from Pg. 6 Another family crisis center which serves Scotland County is the Rain bow House whose director is Amy Daisey, a graduate of St. Andrews. She states that the main goal of the shelter is “to help women and their children to choose a lifestyle that is free from violence.” There is help for victims of do mestic violence. There are shelters and support groups but we cannot just leave the problem on the doorsteps of these organizations. Domestic vio lence is everyone’s problem says Crumpler, “If we can do some pre vention, it will help stop the vio lence.” We should all realize that we can take part in that prevention.
