Page 2—Smoke Signals, November 20, 1986 The Incredible Journey The incredible journey So they say, Is from youth to manhood It takes more than a day. From day one You are shaped and molded Into what society and close companions think you should be stand free stand free Then circumstances try your maturity Will the correct decision be made? Time tells all If the action is wrong You will never live it down If right, all is forgotten Within a few passing days stand free Be your own man stand free. Julian (Jay) Ralph Toxey III On Tuesday, November 18, 1986, Jay Toxey made the decision to leave this world. We are greatly saddened and will miss him terribly. Our sincerest sympathies go out to his family, friends, and his girlfriend, Tracy Fox. “Chowan College is the place to be” Chowan College is really the place to be, there’s not a whole lot to see and that should explain why I came here for my degree, I really didn’t plan for my defeat, and that’s because my parent’s wouldn’t think it was neat, let it be known professors. I’m not here to weep, I just came to this place to stand on my own two feet, and Chowan College really seems the place to be. —Michael Anthony Bijou He'S been chased, thrown through a window, ond arrested Eddie Murphy is a Detroit cop on vacation in Beverly Hills I3IE\/1ERLYJHII.LS wani:,»»9MP3>( m m>mf !noacii> n ussooaicn fiw mwpw mi'ot, A iMHin tKj Hv r:- uRpio Hits aV'S»iw« 9* 8> ownc ai6r uc oMfi Pdw * mil vr 1)16 tPUMOMTPiriKi R “ "^■ '■ - December 11 and 12 7 00 p.m. Turner Auditorium in the McDowell Columns Building 0 Come All Ye Faithful by Sarah Davis OCOME*^ ^ ^ ALL YE FAITHFUL laith fUl I.

Tradition Continues for BSU by Martin Clemons Once a month the Baptist Student Union of Chowan College pays a visit to Pinewood Manor Rest Home in Ahoskie. This is only one of many activities the BSU is involved in. The BSU has been a club at Chowan for over 50 years and Chaplin Taylor has been the ad visor for 23 of those years. On the weekend of September 26-28 our BSU took off for Ridge Crest some eight hours away to the N.C. Baptist Student Conven tion, where there were approximately 700 people and 30-35 dif ferent colleges represented. They participated in the Homecoming parade where they won for “most original float.” They get involved in the Christmas festivities of the town by singing carols and doing a live nativity scene, but the biggest project set forth by the BSU is fund raising for Student Summer Missions. This year the goal is $2,750 toward this cause. BSU also assists students in getting summer employ ment at various camp sites. The BSU officers are as follows: President - Angie F elton V. Presidents -Cindy Larkin -Todd Sharpe -Patrick Rudolph i Come and sing Christmas carols and help usher in the Christ mas season at Chowan. On Monday night, December 1, at 5:30 p.m., the campus Christmas tree will be lighted by President Whitaker, thus heralding the beginning of the Christmas season at Chowan. The carol sing, tree lighting ceremony is jointly sponsored by the staffs of Whitaker Library, Student Development, and the Student Government Association. The tree, located between Whitaker Library and Thomas Cafeteria, will be the focal point for Christmas decorations on campus. Following the lighting of the tree, there will be a Christmas carol sing led by Dr. Chamblee and the college choir. Also par ticipating will be the college band under the direction of Mr. Brown; Mrs. Tilson, guitarist; Mei Yan, vioUnist; and various campus groups Presiding at the occasion will be Mike Fisher, SGA President. Please plan to be present and catch the Christmas spirit. We hope it will be very contagious. I have seen a curious child who dwelt upon a tract of inland ground applying to his ear the convolutions of a smooth-lipped shell; His very soul listened intensely; and his countenance soon brightened with joy; from within were heard murmurings, whereby the monitor expressed mysterious union with its native sea even such a shell with its universe itself is the ear to faith And there are times, I doubt not, when to you it doth impart authentic tidings of invisible things, of ebb and flow, and ever-enduring power, and central peace subsisting at the heart of endless agitation. BSU Calendar Weekly meeting - Tuesday at 7 pm. Wednesday morning Prayer Brealrfast - 7:15-7:40 am. Thursday night Prayer Time - 9:30 pm. Lakeside conf. room Rest Home Visitation - 6:30 on the 2nd Wed. of each month All Are Welcome! The Busiest Man on Campus The busiest man during the fall in Murfreesboro and Chowan College has to be Jerry Hawkins. The 29-year Chowan veteran is the offensive line coach for the Braves footbaU team and directs'' the offensive line at practice from 3:30 to 6 o’clock every day. However, before Coach Hawkins can go to football practice, he has to conduct fall baseball drills. The baseball team had 68 players trying out for 25 spots and practice has been held from ‘ 1:00 to 3:00 pm every day. Coaching two sports is enough to keep most people busy, but Coach Hawkins, also, 3 physical education classes and two general psychology classes. Between lesson plans, team meetings, and taking role at breakfast 3 days a week, ” there is little idle time for Jerry Hawkins. Add the fact, the ' football team plays on Saturday’s and the baseball team plays on Sunday’s and the week is complete. Hard to believe, but the veteran teacher still finds time to line off the football field for games. Jerry Hawkins in many ways is typical of the small college educatora. An unsung hero, a man who goes about his job day in, ^ day out, year in and year out, never complaining, but dedicated to * Chowan College and its students. Coach Hawkins is successful and he is part of a tradition of loyalty that has made Chowan College successful. The Jerry Hawkins’ schedule is so unbelieveable that it belongs in the National Enquirer, except that it is true. The athletic department saluted Jerry Hawkins during Homecoming 1986. There is never any moss growing under the feet of the busiest man in Hertford County. Do Look, A Gift Place On The Table by Sarah Davis Where on campus can you find a free book or magazine that’s yours just for the taking? WHITAKER LIBRARY, of course. Located just inside the library are two tables where gifts for the students are placed. These “freebies” may be popular magazines, scholarly journals, pamphlets, college catalogs, or even books. These discarded items, no longer useful to the library, are considered treasures by many students who find them. For in stance, would you have liked to have the February 10,1986, issue of Sports Illustrated? Some lucky student with an interest in swimwear fashion found it. Remember there will be another sportswear issue next year. Interested? Look on the table. When the microfilm for that issue arrives, the magazine wiU be discarded-i.e., placed on the discard table for someone to find. Is there a particular magazine you would like to have? Look on the table. In fact, some students look on the table regularly to see what will appear. Other items also appear on the discard table. Have you needed a rubber band or even fifty rubber bands? Look on the table. Do you need to save $.25 on your next bottle of shampoo or $.50 on your next bottle of steak sauce? Look on the table. Rubber bands ap pear sporadically. Manufacturers’ cents-off coupons appear regularly. In addition to those items placed by the library staff, gifts also come from other members of the college community. Some professors use this means of disposing of back issues of magazines, and this year one student has used it as a way of sharing the newspaper he receives from home. So... the next time you’re inclined to say that no one ever gives you anything, if you come by the library, you might be very pleasantly surprised.
