Or. Sydnor Lectured Cn German-Russian Historical Conflicts
By JANET COLEMAN Dr. Charles W. Sydnor, History
Department faculty member, presented a lecture on "The Waffen SS
and the German- Russian Conflict" on November 8, at 7:30 in Wygal
Auditorium.
The talk concerned the role of the SS Death's Head Division - a
case study in the racial and ideological warfare as conducted by
one of the original and one of the best of the military for-
mations of Hitler's armed SS. Particular emphasis was devoted to
the prewar origins of the Death's Head division as a for- mation
that was created from the concentration camp guard units of the
Third Reich and the effects of this experience upon the Division's
military performance and atrocity record in Nazi Germany's total
war against Communist Russia.
An audience of fifty or sixty people attended, three fourths
Longwood faculty, a few students, and some of "the world's best
'brown nosers'", as one student pointed out.
Dr. Sydnor was introduced by Dr. Etheridge as "a stimulating and
provocative colleague" and a man with "impeccable
credentials".
Dr. Sydnor then began his talk by pointing out his interest in the
German-Russian conflict, a period Americans fail to un- derstand.
He explained that current historical studies on the Waffen SS and
the German- Russian conflict were lacking in this country. However,
he said the war was such a decisive event that it almost defied a
satisfactory treatment.
HITLER'S
ELITE
1939-1945
Dr. Sydnor explained the development of the Schutzstaffel
(Protection Squad), or SS. Hitler not only needed the Stur-
mabteilung (Storm Section), of SA, which was the Party army and
mass organization, but he wanted a small elite force to spearhead
the revolution and act as his personal bodyguard. The men chosen
for this purpose became known as the SS. "They were chosen chiefly
because of their ability to crack heads," Dr. Sydnor pointed
out.
Dr. Sydnor mentioned the various divisions of the SS, but centered
most of his discussion around the Waffen SS or the Death's Head
Division. He ex- plained that the term, "Waffen" meant "armed". The
Waffen SS were the combat units of the SS subjected to intensive
political
and ideological indoctrination. Through the use of a map, Dr.
Sydnor pointed out the military strategy of the Waffen SS and how
they attempted to postpone the ultimate collapse of Hitler's Third
Reich. At places such as Kharkov, Warsaw, Normandy, the Ardennes,
and Berlin, the Waffen SS tried to halt or push back the
Allies.
Dr. Sydnor also discussed the various leaders involved with the SS.
Very important to the development of the Waffen SS was Heinrich
Himmler, Reichsfuhrer SS. Other leaders mentioned were men such as
Theodor Eicke and Paul Hausser.
Dr. Sydnor's lecture was followed by a brief question and answer
period. His lecture was the third in the Longwood Colloquim
Series.
State Institutions Asked By Gov.
Godwin To Cut Back 5% Of Budget Because of a need for certain
savings "in order to balance the budget" Governor Godwin has asked
for all state institutions to revert 5 per cent of their original
budgets, based on the general fund (that which is funded by state
tax money) back to the state tresasury.
This does not include money, received by state colleges, from
student tuition.
Under its current budget, which was built in 1973, Longwood
receives $2,832,345 from the general fund of Virginia. If it
complied with Governor Godwin's request, it would return $141,617
to the state treasury. However, since the time that
this budget was built, increased costs on inflationary items,
coupled with salary rises, have increased the original by
$92,192.00, making it necessary for longwood to request an ad-
ditional $51,852.00 from the state.
"In essence, we were in a
pretty bad situation," said Mr. Jimmy Paul, business manager. "We
ended up telling the governor that we couldn't revert any amount of
the original ap- propriation."
Longwood has responded, however, by telling the governor that they
would reduce the original request for additional appropriations to
$26,132 or approximately 1 per cent of the amount Governor Godwin
re- quested it to revert back.
This response has been sub- mitted to Carter O. Lowance, the acting
secretary of Education, and as yet no reply has been
received.
"I don't know of any school that actually returned the 5 per cent,"
said Mr. Paul. According to him, responses from other schools vary
"from what we did to returning approximately 4 per cent."
More than anything else, the
point we tried to make was that, coupled with salaries and fixed
items such as utilities, coal and oil, and considering what we'd
already spent, we felt we only had $182,000 that we had any control
over," said Mr. Paul.
Even the reduction in requests is going to mean a tightening of the
budget, according to Mr. Paul. There will be no further purchase of
library books or periodicals until July 1. Energy conservation
methods will be continued (thermostats will be maintained at 68
degrees during the winter months and 77 degrees during the summer)
and travel has been reduced.
And all skilled tradesman in employment at the college will receive
no overtime pay for the remainder of the year. Equip- ment
purchases have been curtailed, and the college will not hire any
additional employees unless it is essential.
Residence Board Conducts
Survey - Forms Committee
By BETH RAFFERTY Residence Board conducted a
survey in all the dorms in order to enable the students to express
their opinions on the present Open House regulations, but according
to Pat Watson, Residence Board Chairman, only an estimated
thirty-five per cent of the student body took ad- vantage of
it.
Pat stated that, "An over- whelming majority of the students want a
week end ex- tension of the Open House hours." She added that,
"There were a few people who wanted twenty-four hour visitation
through the week end.
Pat also stated that the majority of people wanted the open door
policy during visitation hours to be changed so that the students
would be allowed to close their doors. There was also feedback from
the students ex- pressing their opinions that their guests should
be allowed to consume alcoholic beverages during Open House. Pat
added that, "Some students wanted no restrictions," and some
wanted, "the sign-in, sign-out things eliminated."
Pat stated that Dr. Willett, "briefed the Board of Visitors this
week end about it and told them there'll be possible changes."
Resident Board has started a Committee to study the different
proposals on the Open House Regulations which were received from
the students. Vickie Easter, a freshman on Residence Board and a
dorm president, is the Chairman of this Committee. There is a list
on the Student Government bulletin board where any student who is
interested can sign up for this committee. Pat stated that one
action the conunittee is going to take is "to write to state in-
stitutions that are predominantly single sexed," and explore their
visitation policies. Pat added that, "We've never opened up a
committee like this to the student body."
We'll be talking to more students," stated Pat. She added that she
hopes the students will support and aid the conunittee
CHI wishes to thank the Student Assistants for their invaluable
assistance in the promotion of last week's raffle by selling
tickets, posting publicity, and handling the overall execution of
the project. Their enthusiasm and work provided a vital con-
tribution to this project of campus improvement
because. "Something will get done." "We're doing the best that we
can," added Pat, but. "the process of change is slow." Pat hopes
that they will get a "good working background," of opinions and
statistics to present to Legislative Hoard. If a proposal passes
Legislative Board it then goes to Dr. Willett for approval, and it
needed it goes to the Board ol Visitors. On November 25, the
conunittee is scheduled to report back to Residence Hoard, and
hopefully with a large percentage ol feedback from students.
239 Participate In Rush 1974 Changes Noted
Formal Sorority rush lor the 1974-75 college year took place last
week, and was finalized by
walk on Stubbs Mall at 7:30 Sunday night.
Those officially registered for rush totaled 239 as compared with
203 students who par- ticipated in the last sorority rush at
Ixingwood. Each class was represented, with the freshman class
claiming the majority ol rushees. Actual figures listed 152
freshmen, (»7 sophomores, 1!) juniors and one senior.
Some changes were noted in rush this year. Sorority rush be- ing
first semester was a major change over last year. However,
according to Kathy Albrecht, president of the l'anhellenic Council
here, there was no special reason for the change except that it was
suggested b> the National l'anhellenic Council, and I xmg wood's
Council decided to give it a try.
Perhaps the most decisive change was with respect to grade point
averages. In the past, there lias been ;< 2.0 requirement
established by the Panhellenii Council; this year any grad«
requirements were left up to the individual sororities. Man)
sororities subsequently dropped all grade requirements, some had a
required grade point to pledge and for others there Mill be a
requirement for initiation.
The week began with scheduled parties on .Monday and Tuesday
nights. Wednesday and Thursday evenings the rushees could visit any
seven sororities of their choice.
Parties attended on Friday and Saturday were by invitation.
Invitations for Friday night's Theme parties were picked up on
Friday afternoon from 1:00 to 3:00. On Saturday morning from 7:30
to 9:00 the invitation for Inspirationals were made available.
Inpirationals took place that morning from 10:00 to 11:00 and from
11:10 to 12:10. Preferentials were signed on Saturday afternoon in
I^angford.

Student Government-
Does It Represent Students'/ Although! I have never been a great
defender
of the student organizations on this campus, in
recent months it seems that many of them have
begun to realize their obligations to the student body
In general, and have been taking steps to fulfill them.
These obligations which I speak of are, in es-
sence, to keep in contact with students - with what
they want, what bothers them the most, what they
would lik*1 to see changed, and what is most mean-
ingful to them. Although every one of 2,000 people
can not possibly agree on every issue student gov-
ernment has the responsibility to consider a variety
of opinions and try to hit a happy medium which will
satisfy the majority of needs.
Student government, then would not be run by a
"chosen few," but should make the effort to keep it-
self in contact with the people they were elected to
represent Tin* first letter to the editor this week is
a prime example of the fact that they are in some
cases, making this effort and are, surprisingly
enough, receiving some cooperation from the stu-
dent body
Nor is this the only example that can be cited.
Legislative Board, in trying to decide on that hot
and heavy issue - the sale of beer in the snack bar,
gave consideration to every voice that spoke out on
it - and these ranged from those of the most devout
Bible-Carriers to the most dedicated party enthu-
siasts. Student Union, which has long made an effort
to provide a variety of diversions for the different
types of students on this campus, is now also trying
to organize a service of a more serious nature -
a Hot Line to be "the friend in need" for troubled
students.
results of its trials known through the ROTUNDA in
an effort to dispel the air of mystery and darkness
as well as the rumors, which tend to follow it around
campus
However, there is still a great deal of room for
improvement In this matter. The handful of stu-
dents on the Hoards can not possibly be a really
accurate representation of all students. Surveys and
opinion polls are a step in the right direction - but
suppose every major issue in this country was
decided according to the results of the Gallup Poll?
More things need to be put to an open vote by the
student body, rather than being voted on by the
Boards alone And, both student government and
those they represent have the responsibility to
keep the other aware of what they are doing and
thinking about a certain issue, to be frank and
open-minded, and, above all, concerned about
matters of importance to L C. and its students.
Students, then, need to play a more active
part in the matters so vital to their careers as
students. It is up to everyone to take advantage
of the opportunities given them to play an active
role in making decisions concerning social regula-
tions, academic policies, etc. And it is up to those
who have the power to do so to guarantee that
students do, indeed, have these opportunities. Jane
Guest Commentary
By JUDI ELLIS
Most days in the life of a waitress are typically bad. Monday
morning, Wanda Waitress rises out of bed bright and early to find
all of the posters have fallen off the wall due to the great amount
of heat and high relative humidity factor in the room. Wanda's
roommate is furious and swears that Wanda got up at some mysterious
hour of the night and tore them all down just for revenge. Wanda
has no other choice than to just brush it otf. At 8:00 a.m. after
Wanda has been scalded in the shower by five of her suitemates
flushing the toilet, she is ready to joyfully start the day.
Wanda rushes over to the dining hall to set her tables for the noon
hour meal. She finds that there are no clean glasses or
tablecloths, "Ha, ha," she says. Since she has a 9:00 and at 10:00-
12:00, she will have no time to sit in the dining hall and wait for
clean glasses and tablecloths. Wanda decides that either the people
at her tables will have to
drink iced tea out of coffee cups while watching the termites go by
or else the hostess must set her tables. After several traumatic
experiences in her morning classes Wanda wades through the' people
surrounding the dining hall doors. She repeats, "Excuse me, excuse
me, please, excuse me, damn it, let me in!" Wanda finally enters
after practicing her low hurdle and dodging skills, only to find
her tables are not set. Rushing to set her tables, the barn doors
open and the hostesses begin to round 'em up and move 'em in.
Wanda's pay is docked for her tables not being set up on time. She
joyfully serves her courteous tables who send her back for fifths
and sixths, four cartons of milk, peanut butter and jelly, and
coffee. There are four girls at one of the tables who ate every
vegetable in separate soup bowls because they preferred the flavors
separately. After all the occupants at the table had left, they
could easily have been ruled a disaster area.
As usual, the students did
nothing to help. "Sure, it's my job, but this is ridiculous" She
cleaned up as fast as she could and ran into her 1:00 class late.
The professor wanted to talk to her after class about being late.
Then it so happened that she walked into her 2:00 late. After class
Wanda went to the dining hall to set her tables for dinner, only to
find one-fourth of her time had been docked for having dirty
tablecloths. She repeated, "Oh Shit, Oh Shit!" several times to
calm herself down, counted to 10 and held her breath. She set her
tables and left. The dongs struck five as she sat in her room
studying enthusiastically. Wanda got up again and again high-
tailed it to the dining hall. Needless to say, the evening meal
ranked with the other meals on Wanda's list of total confusion and
utter chaos.
Thus endeth another day and Wanda can go back to her room, study,
and prepare for another fun-filled and enjoyable day in the Dining
Hall serving the "ladies."
Thanks
Dear ROTUNDA Editor: Residence Board would like to
thank all students who responded with suggestions for improving our
current Open House regulations. We'd like to assure these students
that all comments have been considered and that we're busy working
on the proposed changes. Any changes that we can make will take
time and we ask that students not become discouraged or lose in-
terest. Please feel free to ap- proach any Board members with
questions concerning our progress or with additional suggestions.
Once again, thanks for your support!
Sincerely, Pat Watson, Chairman
Clouded Loyalties
Dear Editor, In the past, 1 had always
believed that free elections were held in order for the voters to
decide who was best qualified for a particular office. Candidates
ran because they felt that they best possessed the qualities
necessary to perform their designated duties. Unfortunately, this
does not always seem to be the case at Longwood College.
In my observation, it appears that certain groups of students have
attempted to use elections as a means of increasing their power and
status on campus. At

times, such petty motives seem to have taken precedence over the
desire for capable leadership.
As you listen to the campaign speeches, don't let your loyalties
cloud your judgement. Try to make your choice on the basis of the
character, qualifications, and platform of each INDIVIDUAL
candidate.
Sincerely, Karen Cannaday
Jis satisfaction Dear Editor:
A lot of things are happening to the dissatisfaction of the
waitresses in the dining room. It would take about two pages to
list my grievances. If Mr. Carbone would set up a meeting for
waitresses, hostesses, and personnel, maybe some of the difficulty
can be solved.
But at this time, 1 would like to praise one employee of Slater.
Without this young man, I feel that the "downstairs waitresses"
couldn't survive. He's always there to lend a helping hand. I feel
that Slater should recognize this man's service and attitude, he's
fantastic!!!
Three cheers for Eugene Irving!!!

Residence Board Regulations Cause Rise Of Opinions By ELLEN
CASSADA
For the first itme in recent months, a majority of Ix>ngwood
students are voicing their opinions on a current campus issue:
residence board regulations.
Most students surveyed favor at least an extension of the open
hours on weekends. Sophomore
I rly Zava stated "I think the hours should be later on Friday, all
day on Saturday, and later on Sunday I usually don't get back until
after 5 p.m. on Sunday, and 1 have to bring all my stuff up to the
room by myself." Adding to this. Candy McDaniel feels that 'when
parents bring a lot of kids
back, they can't even go to then daughter's rooms." In con-
tinuing, Kath\ K.Kjntz thinks
The hours should include Friday afternoons, Sunday nights, and
until the dorm closes on weekends. I also think you should Keep the
door partially open".
Carolyn Dralne adds "I think the rules definitely ought to be
(hanged. It should begin earlier and remain later on weekends.
After weekend dinners, you have to wait until 2:00 to go inside the
dorm. The only place you have to entertain guests is in your room."
In addition, Janet Lindner stated that "it's bad if you have a
weekend guest and you can't Keep him in your room until the dorm
closes."
An equal number of students would vote for a longer extension.
Debbie Talman favors "twenty- lour hour visitation on weekends. I
like no open hours on weekdays because you can run around without
worrying who you might run into." A slightly different viewpoint
was expressed by Avis Harvey. "Visitation hours should be nightly
from 7 until 12 p.m. and weekends from 12 until 12. I in against 24
hour open dorms to insure to protection of the students." I,ynn
Campbell would propose open hours from "7 to 12 p.m. every night,
and from 12 to 2 a.m. on Friday and Saturday, and 12 to 12:30 p.m.
on Sunday."
"I don't think you should have it all the time", states Billie
Bnghtwell, Tin in favor of having it from 7 to 12 on ueeknights.
and more time on Sunday. People are going to be noisy with or
without guests, and you can still tell them to be quiet"
Way It Is Now Two anonymous students and
freshman Elaine Kountree like it
Varsity Volleyball Termed Successful
B) (LAKE BAXTER Umgwood College traveled to
VCU for the State Volleyball Tournament November 15-16. The first
game they played was against Clinch Valley which they won 15-5 and
15-9. The second game was against l.ynchburg and they lost by
scores of 15-10 and 15-5. The third game was with EMC and Umgwood
again lost a tough game 15-10 and 15-6.
The teams were put in pools of four teams each; where each team
played all the other teams in their pool. The top two teams of each
pool went to finals. Madison came in first overall and l.yn- chburg
and EMC came in second and third. The two teams that 1 xingwood
lost to were EMC and Lynchburg, two of the top three teams.
Miss Callaway, the coach, felt that "For the first year the team
has played together, they had a great season, 5-5, and played well
in the state tournament.
the way it is now. Gail Pollard likes the regulations "as they
stand now, but 1 would favor extending the hours from 7 to 12 on
Sunday. I don't think the doors should be completely closed. It
doesn't really make that much difference."
Residence Board conducted a survey several weeks ago to determine
the student body's opinions on extending open hours. Ruth Gilliatt
"voted to have the regulations to midnight on week- days and 24
hours on weekends. Guys don't usually have enough money to go to a
motel and they need a place to stay. There are always plenty of
empty beds they could use." Agreeing with his is Judith Moffitt.
"This school has no right to regulate my private life. 1 also think
the stupid rule about the open doors should be changed."
Margie Snead offers another statement "1 don't see why that since
just two dorms have community baths that the rest of the college
should be governed by
them. I'm tired of having my life run by little old ladies." Jamie
West doesn't see why "certain dorms couldn't have certain hours,
and the regulations set by a majority vote in the individual
dorms."
India Watkins agrees, and adds that "if students are against it,
they can have separate halls with different rules. Things are
stupid the way they are. " Expressing a similar viewpoint,
Charlotte Williamson states "I'm sick of being treated like a baby.
It's about time we got as many privileges as other state sup-
ported colleges. I feel we should have 24 hour visitation on
weekends and open house from 7 until 12 on weekdays."
Combining all the issues is Janet Coleman, who favors "twenty-four
hour visitation on weekends, closed doors, and drinking by the
guests. The alcohol rules discriminate against males as they stand
now. A girl guest can drink whenever whe wants, but a male cannot.
I
also think it's ridiculous to keep the doors open when we are
entitled to some privacy."
No Open House Offering more conservative
views is Katie Loope. "I don't like the idea of open house all the
time. I suggest designating certain dorms for open house. I think
the hours should be all day Saturday and longer on Sunday, but not
past midnight, and none on weekdays. Beer should remain against the
rules. I can't imagine dragging drunk guys out of the dorms."
Sharing somewhat the same opinion, Vali Peters feels the rules
"should be changed to 12 noon to midnight on weekends. Guests
shouldn't be able to drink. I can't see drunk guys up here. Also,
doors should be closed."
Many people feel that the community baths in Tabb and French will
hamper the extension of open hours. Susan Adams and Susan Hale
favor "more hours on weekends, but there should still be a break in
between 5 and 7 so you cna run around like you
want."Sandy Peterson feels "the hours are fine. The break in
between gives you time to take showers and get ready for
dates."
Disagreeing with the idea of the two hour break in between open
hours is freshman Nan Osteen. "The hours should be extended
straight through. You can get dressed before you leave your room."
Diane Hume and Chris Johnson suggest extending the hours "all the
way through. All the breaks make it bad- especially on fathers."
Michelle Bush also favors longer hours on weekends. "It might be
nice to have visitation on weekdays, too. I don't see that
community baths have anything to do with it."
Students who have been sur- veyed thus far generally favor some
type of extension of the hours. A residence board com- mittee must
draw up a proposal to present to the legislative board, Dr.
Willett, and then to the Board of Visitors for final ap-
proval.

J. Law Attends American Nuclear Society's Meeting
Joseph J. Law, assistant professor of chemistry at Ixmgwood
College, attended the American Nuclear Society's annual meeting
held recently in Washington, D. C.
Goals of the national programs for energy resources and con-
servation and the role of nuclear power in meeting those goals were
discussed at the five-day convention. Among the speakers were:
Congressmen Craig Hosmer and Chet Holifield, members of the Joint
Committee on Atomic Energy; Dr. Dixy I^ee Ray, chairman of the
Atomic Energy Commission; and William A. Anders, former astronaut
and now chairman of the newly-created Nuclear Regulatory
Commission.
There were exhibits and displays of numerous nuclear in- struments
for detecting and analyzing environmental pollutants, narcotic
drugs, food products, forensic specimens, and substances of
biomedical and clinical interest. Technical tours included visits
to the National Bureau of Standards, the Naval Research Laboratory,
and two electricity-generating power plants in Maryland and Penn-
sylvania.
Law joined the American Nuclear Society in 1966 and became a full
member of the Society in 1970. He has been engaged in nuclear
research for seven years and has published several articles on
nuclear and radiation chemistry.
In the past three years, Law's efforts have been directed toward
creating better public un- derstanding of nuclear power generation
by writing articles in popular magazines and newspapers. His most
recent paper, entitled "Defending Nuclear Energy," appeared in the
July issue of "Prevention." For his endeavors, he has received
commendations from the community, industries, and the U. S.
Congress.

Dr. Seeger And Dr. Alden Lectures
Part Of Bicentennial Program By KAREN FOSTER
In celebration of the nation's bicentennial, Longwood presented two
lectures earlier this week. On Monday, Dr. Raymond John Seeger
spoke on "The Humanism of Science," and on Tuesday, Dr. John
Richard Alden talked on •Again, the American Revolution."
Dr. Seeger's lecture is part of the Bicentennial Program on Science
and Society, sponsored by Sigma Xi and funded by the National
Science Foundation. He is currently historian of Sigma Xi and
Adjunct Professor of Applied Science at George Washington
University. He was the first
director of the University of Maryland Institute for Field Dynamics
and Applied Mathematics which he helped organize.
Dr. Seeger's primary research interests have been in the
foundations of quantum mechanics, the electric break- down of
solids, and Shockwave phenomena. The humanistic aspects of the
development and understanding of physics, together with its
literary and social interrelations, and its philosophical and
religious im- plications have always been a personal concern with
Dr. Seeger. He has published six books as well as numerous ai

Department Of Foreign Languages
DR.SEEGER
By KAREN FOSTER Cooperative programs with
Hampden-Sydney, a new policy for beginners' courses, studies
abroad, and a new program with the Business Department are a few of
the activities going on in the Department of Foreign
languages.
1 Kitni. Greek and Russian are being offered at Hampden- Sydney to
Longwood students wishing either to simply study these languages,
or to major in them. However, a student cannot take the second
semester of these courses unless she has previously had the first
semester, stated Mrs. Anita B. Ernouf, depart- ment chairman.
Until this year, the situation applied also to the Spanish, French
and German which are offered here. But "We are starting beginning
courses in the
middle of the year," said Mrs. Ernouf. "They will be listed in the
schedule for second semester." These classes are open to students
who have had one year or less of the language.
Mrs. Ernouf stressed, in the department, we always give < the
students) a chance to advance themselves by tests." Thus, if •
student who takes a course as stated above and continues to work
during the summer on her own, she can, by passing a test, receive
credit for a full year's work.
The Foreign Language Department's study abroad program, offered in
cooperation with the Council on International Educational Exchange,
offers an undergraduate language program in Rennes, France, and in
Seville, Spain.
Also offered is a Summer Program abroad where students spend four
weeks studying in their choice of Spain, France or Germany and are
given two weeks free time to travel. By dealing directly with the
foreign universities involved, Mrs. Ernouf said, "We plan to keep
the program as inexpensive as possible."
The Summer Program is open to all Longwood students, whether they
have studied a foreign language or not. "They will be placed in
language
courses at their level," Mrs. Ernouf said, and will receive six
credits.
Finally, concluded Mrs. Ernouf, "We are trying to start something
with the Business Department," a special program for students
interested in the several business careers available in the foreign
language field. They are currently working on a program for
Bilingual Secretaries and International Business Administration.
The
DR. ALDEN
program will be offered in cooperation with the Ixmgwood College
Business Department and a business school in Mexico or
Canada.
The three exchange students, one from Haiti, one from Mexico, and
the other from Germany, are available to talk with interested
students. They live on the language Hall on third floor Cox.

Woman Mathematician To Lecture
Dr. Lida K. Barrett, prominent mathematician and head of the
Department of Mathematics at the University of Tennessee, will
visit the Longwood Campus November 20 and 21 as a Mathematical
Association of American lecturer. Her stay will be highlighted
Wednesday evening at 7:30, when she will give a lecture in Wygal
Auditorium entitled 'Applied Mathematics or Applicable
Mathematics?" Following this talk, Lychnos Society will honor Dr.
Barrett at a reception in the Green Room.
In addition, Dr. Barrett will give a discussion on "Women
Mathematicians, Past and Present," Thursday at 1:00 p.m. also in
Wygal Auditorium.
Dr. Barrett received her Ph. D. degree from the Universtiy of
Pennsylvania, and has had teaching positions at a number of
schools, including the Univer- sities of Pennsylvania, Utah and
Wisconsin, as well as the University of Tennessee. She has also
published a number of papers dealing with topology and its
applications, including recent works on application on topology to
metallurgy and material science.
During her visit, Dr. Barrett will meet informally with students
and faculty. As a woman employed in a traditionally male
profession, a mother of three children, and an active worker for
equality for women, she should have valuable insights for
both.
ROCHETTE'S
FLORIST
By JO LEILI White coats, red arm bands,
and some pale faces were common sights in Gammon Gym at
Hampden-Sydney College last Thursday, November 14, when it was
visited by the Roanoke chapter of the Red Cross in conjunction with
its annual blood drive.
The blood drive, which was scheduled to last from 12:00 p.m. until
6:00 p.m., had set its quota at a hopeful 250 pints, to be
distributed to various hospitals within a 150 mile radius of the
Roanoke area. Checking into the situation around 4:00 p.m., proved
the drive not to be progressing as well as expected.
The Hampden-Sydney Blood Chairman revealed this discouraging
information, but also said that he "anticipated more people later
on." To Hampden-Sydney, though, the significance of the blood drive
extended beyond that of its being a worthy cause, as over the past
two years a competition has evolved with another college found in
Ashland, Virginia, Randolph-Macon.
This competition, which is waged for the coveted Tiger- Yellow
Jacket Cup, is formed of a series of somewhat unrelated feats,
which include beside the blood drive, a tug-of-war contest, and a
Hampden-Sydney - Randolph-Macon football game.
The blood drive competition is calculated on a percentage basis,
determined by the number of eligible persons in the schools who can
donate blood, and those who actually do donate. The ineligible
include students with medical problems and the football players of
both schools. Last year found Hampden- Sydney victorious in its
efforts, with 23 per cent donating to Kandolph-Macon's 16 per
cent.
Competition does not occur on a strictly school-to-school basis,
however, as individual frater- nities also enter into the spirit of
the contest, being persuaded to donate by prizes for their frat,
and occasional fines of a few dollars for reluctant
individuals.
Most members did seem more than willing to donate, though,
independent of any external stipulations, as the general mental
attitude stated by one member was, "It's a good thing to do, it's
helping someone else, it doesn't cost anything," and the physical
attitude as stated by another member was. "1 feel great, I can't
wait to get high!" Other willing donors included a veteran of 11
times, who was 'always glad to give blood," a live-time veteran and
Geist member who gave because she was "just doing it," and a
second- time veteran, who " was petrified last year, and still
am!"
"A & P"
FOR YOUR
SNACK ITEMS
The drive did offer an opposite aspect for some donors, however, as
many persons were turned away after waiting for up to two hours to
give blood. Reasons for rejection were, for example, having too low
a hemoglobin count, a history of heart trouble, ears pierced within
six months or less which could prove a site for viral hepatitis,
being under the minimum weight of 110 pounds, taking acne pills,
penicillin, or various other medications, or registering too high a
tem- perature due to a fever.
In all, though, the operation progressed smoothly and ef-
ficiently, with help pouring in from all channels. Aid given in the
form of manual labor was apparent at the stations for testing,
recovery, typists, bottle table, and refreshments, which were
donated in the form of sandwiches, crackers, and cookies by Slater,
and bottles of soda donated by the town's Pepsi and Coke
companies.
By 6:00 p.m., it was evident that the drive would have to extend
beyond its time limit for at least another half hour, as the number
of student donors in- creased. The Chairman of the Farmville Area
Chapter of the Red Cross felt that the quota would be reached and
noticed " a lot of cooperation between the schools," and stated it
was one of the reasons why "1 love to work with colleges." If the
quota was reached, it would be an economic help to the area
hospitals and patients, as it costs $35 to $75 to receive a pint of
blood, not in- cluding lab costs, plus the fact that in spite of
blood drives, shortages occur in periodic cycles, whereby all
elective surgery must be canceled. A spirit of optimism did prevail
throughout the day, though, for as stated earlier by the Executive
of the Farmville Area Red Cross, "The drive was somewhat better
last year, however by 3:30 p.m., we were averaging as good as last
year. Hampden-Sydney has never failed. With Ixin^wood cooperation,
there is a possibility of meeting the quota."

expected to post an 11-1 varsity record and a 5-0-3 junior varsity
record this year. The teams steadily improved throughout the season
as the players became more aware of each others' abilities and
styles of play."
There were several factors which contributed to this suc- cessful
season. Talented newcomers and returning players strengthened the
team both offensively and defensively A very strong forward line
continually pressured the op- posing teams by scoring a total ol 41
goals during the regular season and an additional 10 goals during
the tournament. The equally strong defense allowed only 8 goals
during the season and l goal during the tour- nament. The junior

By CLARE BAXTER The Ixmgwood College Field
Hockey team travelled to Virginia Beach on October 19 and played
the Virginia Beach Club. After having a very slow start Ixingwood
quickened the pace by scoring 3 goals in the second half to win the
game 3-0. Cathy Ixwe led the scoring with 2 goals while Karen Smith
added the other.
Tuesday, October 22, Ix)ngwood was again victorious, this time over
VCU by a score of 4-0. Karen Smith led the offense with 3 goals and
Terri Voit added another. Ixmgwood worked well together showing
complete control over the game by not giving VCU the chance to
score.
The last game of Longwood's field hockey season was at home on
November 6 against Roanoke College. Ix)ngwood won the game by a
score of 5-1. Karen Smith, Terri Voit, Carol Filo, Cathy
Ix3we and Susan Wagner each tallied once to give Longwood their
final win of the season. Susan Wagner was the first defensive
player to score a goal this season.
In the final analysis Longwood had a very successful hockey season
posting a record of 11-1 and Junior Varsity's record was 5-0-3.
Ixmgwood was undefeated in intercollegiate competition. All of the
player's enjoyed the season because everyone was willing to give
their share and therefore made it easier for everyone to work for a
common cause, that of winning. Leading Longwoods' teams in the
goals scored were Terri Voit - 13; Karen Smith — 12; and on Junior
Varsity Michele Nealon with 7.
On the week end of November 9-10 Longwoood College was host to the
1974 Tidewater Field Hockey Tournament. Ten clubs

and colleges participated in the tournament, accounting for the
many exciting games that were played. Ixwigwood had 3 games during
the tournament and won all of them against Westhanlpton, Virginia
Beach Club and the Richmond Club. The highlight oi the Richmond
Club game was when Nancy Dmoch scored on a tie-breaking penalty
stroke to give Ix)ngwood a 2-1 win.
After the games were over, the selectors picked 3 teams to go to
the Southeast Tournament in Goucher Maryland this past week end.
Selected to the Tidewater I team were: Tern Voit, Cathy Ix)we,
Terri Sawyer and Susan Wagner. Carol Filo was selected to the
Tidewater II team along with Longwood graduates Loretta Bunting and
Joanne Tucker. Pat Dameron and Scottie Capehart were selected to
the Tidewater III team. Honorable Mention was given to Karen Smith
and Nancy Dmoch for their outstanding play during the tournament
even though they did not stand for selection.
The teams' victorious seasons were due to the efforts of then-
coach Miss Carolyn V. Hodges. She was also responsible for the
organization of the Tidewater Field Hockey Association Tournament.
Miss Hodges was very happy about the season and said, "The 1974

I would suggest telling your tables a few of their bad habits and
that it's bothering you. Also tell them that if they are cour-
teous to you, you would return the favor.
As far as the dining room personnel, ignorance is usually- ignored.
A lot of petty things are happening in the dining room which don't
get the attention of Mr. Carbone. I know he isn't expected to
handle every problem, that's why he has others under him. These
people should be able to solve the conflicts, instead of adding to
them.
The age factor is noticeable, but this wouldn't even come to light
if the people would just learn to mind their own business.
I was taught to respect my elders, and I would appreciate it if you
did also. But just as I've stated before, "ignorance is to be
ignored."
