Jazz pianist's career Tale of talent, persistence, drive
By Andrea Pitkow
She doesn't move her hands for expression when she talks, but when she plays the piano, they fly.
She is Marian McPartland, Jazz pianist, who conducted a "mini- residency" and held a concert performance at the University earlier this week.
With a hint of her British homeland accent, McPartland traced her musical career. When she was three, she began playing piano feeling "Impelled to play- like someone was pushing from behind," she recalled.
AT 17, she was studying piano at the Guild HaU School of Music in London. She left there to play piano in a traveling vaudeville show for a year.
During World War n, she met American cornetist Jim- myMcPartland in a USO camp show, married him and came to the U.S. after the war.
"I learned jazz by trial and error," she said. 'I listened to other players and imitated them." She said Duke Ellington "inspired me to know Jazz," adding that she
came to know he and his family well.
"He had such a wide variety of styles-there's so much you can do with it." she said of Ellington's music. At her husband's urging, McPartland, Don Lemond, and Eddie Safranski formed a trio and opened at the Hickory House in New York City in 1952.
TO ENCOURAGE female Jaz- musicians "to do what they want to do," she formed an all-woman panel of musicians for the Today Show.
"There's always room for talented people with persistence and drive," McPartland said. "Persistence is the best thing to have-a 'nevcr-givc-up-the-ship attitude'."
McPartland readily deferred her s( H: a lied title of "queen of piano," to Mary Lou Williams, a Jazz pianist who, she said, "transcends the term 'woman musician-' she is simply a musician.
"I never give myself an A-plus on my work. I'm never satisfied with myself, I'm always learning."
Unlike the music played in elevators and department stores,
McPartland said jazz takes listening.
"JAZZ Will NEVER attain the mass acceptance of pop and rock."
Songs from Jazz musicians Lke Dizzy Gillespie and Jerome Kern reflect what MePatland calls jazz' "staying power." Years after they were written and recorded the songs still are played and enjoyed.
McPartland composed her first Jazz piece, "There'll B<- Other Times" about IS years ago It was recorded by Sarah Vaughn. "Twilight World," another song written by McPartland with lyrics by Johnny Mercer, was recorded by Tony Bennett.
Because she thought jazz artists were neglected throughout the recording industry' in the late 60's after the great Influx of rock music, McPartland bought a record label, Halcyon Records.
"You had to have a gimmick, but I wanted to do something good for its own sake," she explained.
"It's nice to have your own little company and do it for fun, not to make money."
MCPARTLAND RECENTLY S spent two weeks in Richmond, as
an artist-in-residence in the public schools.
"You need more energy with the youngsters," to hold their at- tention, she said. "It's worth it—to get them involved."
She improvises tunes that the kids are familiar with such as' "The Entcrtainer,"which she played in many jazz styles.
"Improvising is taking a tune you know and doing your own thing," McPartland explained. Once the students hear familiar music, they immediately want to join in, she said.
Because of her concern for animal conservation, McPartland is planning a fund raising concert with several other musicians in the fall.
"I was tempted to accept two concert offers, but I didn't," she laughed.
Though "back-tracking is hard and the memories are sometimes painful," she is working on her autobiography.
Advice to young musicians: "One must be very flexible, ready to change, to do something dif- ferent" in the music field. Each year brings something better than the year before."
Protest proposed gymnasium
Speakers remember Kent tragedy By Paul Uatern
News Editor
KENT, Ohio-On the seventh an- niversary of the Kent State University (KSU) shootings, Dick Gregory, comedian turned activist, told students here to stick to their demands in ob- serving the May 4,1970 tragedy.
That day four KSU students were killed and 11 wounded when Ohio National Guardsmen fired their rifles into a crowd of demonstrators. The shootings were the climax of four days of unrest after then-President Richard M. Nixon's announcement to invade Cambodia during the Vietnam War.
Speaking to about 2,500 persons at a noon rally yesterday, Gregory said he would fast from solid food until he was assured by Kent leaders that the demands would be met.
GREGORY ALSO expressed concern over another controversy-the proposed building of a gymnasium near the site of the shootings.
"I will go at least five years without eating solid food if they build that gym," he said.
The twwlay observance began Tuesday night with a speech and candlelight march of 1,400 students ending in the parking lot where the four students were killed.
A candlelight vigil was held from midnight until noon yesterday on each of the spots where the students were killed.
Rains dampened the vigil, which also forced the speakers to Memorial Hall for the rally.
Dean Kahler, confined to a wheelchair since being wounded during the shootings, opened the four-hour rally with an analogy comparing the Kent State tragedy with a mirror.
" WHEN YOU BREAK a mirror, you have seven years bad luck," he said, adding that he hoped stories of the students would begin to be more widely accepted.
Another of the KSU students wounded seven years ago. Alan Canfura, gave his account of the events leading up to and including the shootings.
David Engdahl, attorney for the parents of the dead students during the 1975 civil suit against eight National Guardsmen, said the Kent tragedy was noticed because it showed "mistreatment brought forcibly home to middle class America."
Former KSU student, Tim Butz, founder and editor of an underground newspaper. Counterspy, talked against the proposed gymnasium.
CONSTRUCTING THE gymnasium "would be the greatest sacrilege, mutilation and desecration this state has ever seen," Butz said, adding that such a structure would be trying to "bury Kent's roots."
Chais Canfora, sister of Alan and a KSU sophomore in 1970, said she was in the crowd that was shot at, but added,
"I was lucky enough to find cover under a parked car."
Students at KSU should learn the facts surrounding the tragedy, she said, because others will expect them to know.
She said she was especially discouraged to hear a "Kent spokesman in 1975 inaccurately describe the trageay."
In 1970, the spokesman was "com- fortably sitting in a junior high classroom while we were dodging bullets on Taylor Hill," she said.
CHAIS WAS AMONG 25 persons indicted by the Portage County grand jury for her activities on May 4,1970.
Ron Kovik, spokesman for the Vietnam Veterans Against the War (WAW), said murder was committed as KSU and that it symbolized the mass murders of the Vietman War.
"For Dean (Kahler) and others, Vietnam had come to Kent State," he said.
Kovik said he was once angry at draft card burners and called them traitors. He served two tours of duty in Vietnam as a marine.
It was during the second tour, when he accidentally killed an American soldier and then he was shot and paralyzed from the chest down, that he said he began to question American policy in the war.
KOVIK, ALSO CONFINED to a
wheelchair because of his injury, said, "Dean and I were paralyzed thousands of miles apart but our young bodies were destroyed by the same govern- ment."
Kovik, also spoke against the proposed gymnasium.
"If they build that gym, they'll have to bury 1,000 students in that cement," he said.
William Kuntsler, defense coor- dinator for the Kent 25, joined those speaking against the proposed gym, telling students not to "let those bulldozers clear; lie down In front of them.
"You have a right to preserve a place in history," he said, adding "if you're arrested I promise I will return."
KUNTSLER SAID government leaders should be held acountable for what happened at KSU seven years ago, because they gave guardsmen the impression that the demonstrators were not human.
Kuntsler warned students not to forget the shootings. "If we forget, this university will build its gymnasium wherever it pleases," he said.
After the rally, a "Unity March" proceeded from Memorial Hall behind a banner bearing the May 4 Task Force theme "The truth demands justice" and amid chants of "No gym." The group passed the site of the shootings and marched into downtown Kent
Approximately 1.000 persons par- ticipated in the march.
University must meet emission standards by 1979 EPA deadline
By Julie Rollo Staff Reporter
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has asked the University to report how it will comply with federal standards for sulphur dioxide emissions.
According to Seldon I,. Carsey, director of environmental health and safety, to comply with the standard, coal burned at the heating plant must have a maximum .75 per cent sulphur content for 13,000 BTU per pound of coal.
Coal burned now has from 2.8 to 3 5 per cent sulphur.
CARSEY SAID that although no deadline has been set for the com- pliance plan, the University must meet the standard by October, 1979. Norman H. Bedell, director of technical support services, said the heating plant has not had its stacks measured for emission level, "but it is probably correct that we are in violation." He said the level of sulphur dioxide was determined by an engineering estimate.
"The kinds of pollution you get depend on the coal you bum," Bedell said, because coal has different amounts of ash and sulphur.
Coal with high ash content results in more soot and ash, he said. "We burn coal purchased in Ohio that is fairly good in ash."
Bedell said that currently ash content meets EPA requirements. However, "regulations that govern the amount of sulphur dioxide are very strict.''
CARSEY SAID the compliance plan to be drafted by himself, BedeU and consulting engineers will probably contain a proposal to burn coal with a lower sulphur content.
"It would cost more to go on lower sulphur coal," Carsey said, depending on availability and transportation costs. "I think it would cost about $5 to $10 more per tun.
About 22,000 tons of coal are burned a year, according to Albert E. Lance, engineer at the heating plant.
Bedell said no allocations have been made by the Capital Plan for Higher Education for 1977-1983 to permit the conversion.
Bedell said another way to meet the EPA standard would be to Install equipment that collects hot gases from the furnaces and chemically "scrubs out" sulphur dioxide.
"YOU END UP with residue that you have to dispose of," he said. Other disadvantages are installation and operation costs.
Carsey said the equipment Is com- plex and would occupy too much space.
EPA asked University officials to submit the compliance plan during a recent conference in Columbus. Ohio University and Miami University also were asked to submit similar reports, although they burn coat with lower sulphur content than the University, Bedell said.
The conference was set after a request by the Northwest Ohio Lung Association for state institutions to prove they are meeting air pollution standards.
Council to circulate ballots on calendar
By Roger Lowe Staff Reporter
Academic Council discussed the upcoming faculty referendum and voted down a motion to change the name of the department of Quantitative Analysis and Control (QAC) at its meeting yesterday.
After the last Academic Council meeting, Dr. Kenneth W. Rothe, University provost and chairman of Academic Council, appointed a subcommittee to develop and implement the faculty referendum. Appointed were: Fred Pigge, director of educational research and services; Gary R. Hess, chairman of the history department and Lynn M. Ward, associate professor of legal studies.
Dr. Karl E. Vogt, dean of the College of Business Administration, said he did not think sufficient time has been taken for faculty members to understand the Im- plications of a change from a quarter system to a semester system. He suggested more forums to present the information
ACADEMIC COUNCIL should accept a calendar for the 1978-1979 academic year by the end of this academic year, Rothe said.
Most of the faculty already have an opinion on the quarter-semester question based on their experiences, he said. "At least 500 have been on both systems already.
Rothe suggested Academic Council go ahead with the ballot and condense the available information Into fact sheets to be distributed to faculty members with the ballots.
The fact sheets should precede the ballots, according to Stuart R. Givens, professor of history, so faculty have the chance to study the fact sheets for a few days before voting.
Dr. John G. Eriksen, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, proposed that the fact sheets be distributed and that the Office of Resource Planning be asked for data on the financial impact of a change to semesters.
It was determined that the fact sheet be sent out May 27 and the ballot distributed May 31.
•THIS REFERENDUM is merely testing the attitudes on this campus," Eriksen said. Vogt supported this, saying the ballot simply is a reflection of faculty at- titudes, not a policy change.
In other business, council discussed changing the name of the QAC department to the department of accounting, applied statistics, computer-based information systems and operations research.
After a lengthy discussion, council voted to retain the present name because It did not solve the confusion of what courses were offered in each department. .

news shield law The Ohio Senate recently pasted a bill that extends the ttate'i newt
shield law (which allows reporters to withhold their news sources) to cover reporters from non-commercial television and radio stations.
This is an important addition to the law. Even if a station is non- commercial, it should be given the rights of any other station.
The bill was authored by Sen. Paul E. Gillmor (R-Port Clinton), following a suggestion by University broadcaster Stephen L. Brash.
Brash, the news and public affairs director from WBGU - TV (Channel 57). said his station has dealt with enough sensitive subjects (including natural gas and energy problems) that protection of Channel 57s reporters is important.
The News is glad that Brash spoke up. Reporters, especially in Bowling Green, are often pressed for their sources, even though con- lulciiii.il agreement is in effect.
Some local government and University officials buffalo reporters into revealing those sources.
If passed by the Ohio Legislature and signed by the governor, the law would stop this practice.
We believe WBGU will continue in their responsible and professional coverage of campus and community affairs, even if they need not disclose their news sources.
$.16 for cut service? Hey, no dice! The U.S. Postal Service began preparing requests yesterday to raise
the price of stamps and cut Saturday mail deliveries. As they presented the case to the public at several news conferences
two weeks ago, either the deliveries would be cut or the price of stamps would go up. Not both.
This is the type of action by federal offices we can do without. It ruins their credibility.
When the News first heard about the Postal Service's money troubles, we said Saturday deliveries could be cut as long as stamp prices remained the same.
A special federal commission recently recommended the Postal Service cut Saturday mail deliveries and be given an increase in congressional appropriations to cover the deficits.
But the postal service decided to raise the cost of stamps instead. Starting next year, you will be paying 16 cents a stamp. Great.
And at the same time, you won't be getting those Saturday deliveries. With a three-rent jump in stamp prices, they should have been able to afford that.
Rep. Charles H. Wilson, D-Calif. has introduced a bill Into the House that would require the continuation of the six-day service.
If the Postal Service Is going to play dirty. Rep. Wilson should throw the trump card. The News supports his bill.
betters punishment
Professor Byler's letter (April 26) finds fault with an earlier BG News article on capital punishment by Jamie Pierman.
Neither the professor nor the Jour- nalist consider one (act that can't be denied: it is certain that a murderer who is killed legally will himself not kill again.
Even the best "facts" established by careful opinion polls and other statistical methods cannot approach this "fact" in authority.
If it «ill not seem pedantic, let me note here that a "fact" means in its basic or root sense "something ac- complished or something done." It derives from the ijtin word facio, which means to do or to make. If you promote capital punishment, you are making someone dead, or, to play on words, you agree to do them in. This is, you will agree, a fact
All other facts, which the journalist is, you will agree, a fact.
All other facts, which the journalist apparently should have provided, and the professor obviously wanted, are mere shadows compared to this fact.
I ask everyone considering the question of the fact of killing someone for having killed someone, not to confuse a fact with "data."
The root meaning of this word is "those things which are given," because it derives from the Latin word meaning to give. And this is as it should be: all that the best study of capital punishment can possibly accomplish is to give you Its results, and these results are not as reliable as facts.
The best public opinion polls often miss the mark by a mile. So I en- courage everyone considering capital punishment to stick to the fact: the only person you can be sure to deter from killing is the one you legally Mil yourself.
And each death, legal or criminal, which is caused by the violence of the outlaw's gun or the violence of the warden's dynamo, is a killing.
Based on these facts, the question becomes painfully simple, and the answer quite obviously: no. Because the qustion is so stark, no wonder that everyone is waiting and wishing for more facts.
There will be no more facts, and it
will be intellectually unacceptable for any thinking person to confuse the facts with mere data.

harsh
The flag burning...Guest columnist Russ Crumrine, (Tuesday News) begins by saying that in many countries protesting or criticizing the govern- ment is met with harsh treatment. That's true and this country is one of them. Don't be foolish, believe it
Russ gives two types of reasons, the first was termed, logical, by Russ, the second, personal, why he felt the silent protest of burning the stars and stripes on the Union steps was wrong.
I'll deal with the second reason first, since that's the way Russ seems to be thinking. "Personally" to Russ, the flag is a symbol of our country and should be honored. I can't think of a better way to show dissatisfaction for something than by destroying something that is interpreted as a symbol of that very thing. This protest was done without any actual harm to anything, with the single exception of It
upsetting Russ and certain others, who seem to rare more about the symbol than what it represents. Archie Bunker also respects the flag but does be care
about you or I? The point Is that too often people honor symbols instead of life.
The "logical" reason(s) Russ gives for the wrongs of flag burning was that no reason of protest was given by the burners. Possibly, it was your basic, general protest. I don't know, but anyone not feeling there has always been something to protest Is not just apathetic, he must also be an asshole, or rich, or both.
The mostly satisfied attitude that Russ seems to possess concerning our country is tragic. He may be free and living in the best country in the world. Until Amerika Is America, we flag burning types will continue. Admit- tedly, it would be better if people like Russ would do more thinking with their eyes open. But, which is more likely to happen?
Stephen R. Capo 515 S. Main. Findlay
guest columnist
who is dennis sadowski? Who is Dennis Sadowski and what is
he doing here? After reading his editorial comment
in the News last Thursday, someone should tell Mr. Sadowski that it is not too late to change his major from journalism to cesspool cleaning; something a little more suited to his intellectual level.
His "comments" about HoIIis Moore were not only immature and irrational, but based on as little factual in- formation as conceivably possible.
It only deserves rebuttal because some helpless mental dwarf may mistakenly glean some believable thread of informational garbage from Mr. Sadowskl's article and have an incorrect notion concerning Dr. Moore
WHEREAS YOU have only seen Hollis Moore once in three years, Mr. Sadowski, that is not his fault, it is yours.
You admitted yourself that you are burled with work at the BG News office (why it never rubbed off in your writing style is curious) and that you spend your weekends studying.
Your efforts to communicate are, and continue to be, nil.
Dr. Moore, on the other hand, is not "hiding in his office," as you are prone to do.
HE IS BUSY KEEPING this University in operation by constantly vying for funds and support from literally thousands of people every year.
Without his untiring attempts to create more revenue for the college and keep relations open between Bowling Green State University and the rest of the world, you, Mr. Sadowski, would be paying twice as much for tuition here.
You see, his Job is not as you mistakenly note, being Joe buddy to every student, eating lunch in the
guest cQ/umn/sf
Union, scheduling tennis matches with students or meandering the campus searching the "hippie radicals."
HIS JOB IS to see that you, the student, can have these opportunities!
By the very nature of his Job, which includes a great deal of public relations, Dr. Moore must entertain visitors, very often at sporting events. He must have board meetings. He must "slip out the side door" perhaps, to be
on time for his appointments. Hollis Moore needs to act in a
responsible manner because he has some heavy-duty responsibilities resting heavily on his shoulders.
He need not offer alibis to you, Mr. Sadowski.
IN MY FOUR YEARS here, however, some things have concerned me and I made numerous appointments to speak with Dr. Moore. Never once have I been refused.
Therefore, I can not believe your incongruous attitudes because you aren't man enough to confront Hollis Moore face to face.
Your stand is predicated on false information or no information at all because you are too much of a coward to find out the real truth of the matter.
I might suggest two things to you, Mr. Sadowski besides establishing yourself in the janitorial field.
One is that Hollis Moore, in spite of being only human, is doing a splendid job, on and off this campus. He knows the responsibilities of his Job, which are indeed many and varied, and he attacks them with vitality, despite the handicap of having to deal with idiots like you
THE SECOND THING is to make an appointment with Dr. Moore. I'm sure you'll find him to be a delightful man. open and willing to listen carefully to your intelligent suggestions, if in fact you have any.
He is available, willing to help and eager to learn from students, but no wonder he stays clear of campus.
Water seeks its own level. Mr. Sadowski, and if Dr. Moore met you, he would drown.

\SET Ul^OurOF 9GMT' "H£ PENTAGON MAY SE READY ftfc WOMEN ON CDMBKT snips-, mm op MAN WILL NEVER W
laxers deserve better, young and huston
Every once in a while, there occurs a team of highly-spirited individuals who have such an immense love for their sport and their team members that the results are a clearly visible comraderie on and off the field, an everpresent concern for the welfare and progress of each member, and consistently out- standing seasons.
Such is the case of the women's lacrosse team.
From Its beginnings six years ago, the women laxers have always been known for their dedication to their team and their sport, and for having the "winningest" record among all women's sports at the University.
Presently the holders of the Women's Midwest Lacrosse Championship, this team was always a shining light for the P.E.R. Department, continuing win- ning seasons with the experience of learning, for most of us, a new and beautiful game which is rapidly becoming popular in the Midwest.
Lacrosse is a game which demands much speed, grace, skill and brains. If you have ever attended a match, you can understand why laxers, male and female, are so proud of their game.
And if you know any laxers, you can clearly see this devotion to their sport.
RIGHT NOW, however, we are all quickly an endangered species. Because of the budget it has been recommended that cuts be made in the men's program and that the entire women's program be abolished.
This decision was made by a com- mittee consisting of the Athletic Director, his assistants, various professionals and two students. There was no representation of either lacrosse team, nor were any members of the women's team or coaching staff told in advance that this meeting would occur so that our feelings could be heard then.
We were simply informed of this decision iwo weeks ago.
The following week we were told the reasons behind the formulation of this decision:
1. Lacrosse is nto a commonly played sport in the Midwest and the Athletic Department felt that a sport which better fit the mode of Midwestern sportswomen was needed. Their solution: an intercollegiate fast-pitch Softball team for women. (Is this any way to save money...substituting one sport for another?)
2. They could not Justify giving athletic grants to women who did not learn the sport until college and sub- sequently made the varsity squad.
To say the least, we found all of these arguments absurd.
WE DISCOVERED that there are only six fastpitch intercollegiate Sof- tball teams in the state of Ohio...compare this to nine in- tercollegiate women's lacrosse teams in Ohio alone (BG, Ohio State, Ohio University, Kenyon, Wooster, Wit- tenberg, Ohio Wesleyan, Dennison and Oberlin).
Furthermore, we question the need for any sort of intercollegiate Softball team at all when women can play each summer through the innumerable American Softball Association Leagues.
We, as a team, went on record last year as being the only women's team who did not want athletic grants. We felt strongly, as we do now, that lacrosse should be played simply for the game and not for monetary reasons.
The Athletic Department ruled, however, that in order to abide by Title IX, we must accept athletic grants. Now they are telling us that they can no longer afford to give us grants, so the team must be folded. Keeping Title IX in mind, we ask which is more discriminatory-to withhold our grants, or to abolish the women's lacrosse team altogether?
While it is true that only two on our team has ever played lacrosse before coming to the University, and that approximately one-third of our team members are not even P.E.R. majors, we wonder why this should be held aga'nst us or even brought up at all.
CLEARLY OUR record speaks for itself.
We must be doing something right in order to have winning seasons year after year, and to have captured the Midwest championship last year.
This is an even more unusual feat when you consider that the majority of schools against which we compete consist of women who are from the east and who have played from the junior- high on up.
Most Importantly, we question the goals of the athletic department in general. Is their purpose to merely follow the status quo in providing typically midwestern sports on this campus or should we continue to be a
leader in bringing new and rapidly growing sports (eg. lacrosse, rugby, field hockey) to the midwest area''
Is sport to be looked upon as simply a specialized competition in which one must win, win, win, or should we continue to emphasize athletics as being one very important aspect in the overall growth of the college student?
Our alternatives are slim-we must either return to our former club status (in other words, support ourselves) or have nothing at all.
We refuse to return to club status. We began as a club team and proved
ourselves to have a viable and popular program-hence our elevation to var- sity status.
This is a matter of principle for us. In the end, we would like to see no team abolished, and we do not have a special grudge against the game of Softball.
But we do feel that lacrosse has been unfairly singled out by the athletic dept. for cutbacks. As one solution, we would like to see a clear-cut appraisal be made of all non-revenue sports and small cuts be made accordingly, all across the board.
We would be more than happy to give
up all of our granl-in-aid monies...all wc ask for is food and traveling ex- penditures.
Lastly, we would like to put a plea out to the BGSU student body for their support.
If you love lacrosse, support us by coming to our final home matches (May 7 & 8 vs. Ohio State, Ball State and Pittsburg Club), by writing a letter to the editor, or better yet, by writing to Dick Young or Carol Huston of the athletic dept.
If lacrosse is new to you. come to our home matches and discover why lacrosse, men and women's is known as "the fastest game on two feet" and is one of the most exciting sports around today.
We. as a team, are going to fight to the end to preserve our team and lacrosse in general at BG. K lacrosse goes this year, we wonder how long it will be until other teams follow suit.
Please keep lacrosse at BG! Help us save our lacrosse team!

Day in Review From Aiiociotad Pra-u Raportv In Cooparotion With WBGU-TV
Ed.iaci by Mil lommart
U.S. will not oppose
Vietnam in United Nations
The U.S. has agreed to drop its op- position to the admission of Vietnam to the United Nations, following the second day of talks in Paris on normalizing relations between Washington and Hanoi.
The U.S. has vetoed Vietnam's ap- plication for membership in the U.N. on three occasions.
The two delegations conferred for a total of seven hours in Paris Monday and Tuesday.' They will resume their talks in two weeks.
The U.S. delegation expressed its ap- preciation for Vietnamese efforts to find the bodies of Americans still missing in action in the Vietnam war.
In Washington, the announcement that the U.S. has dropped opposition to Viet- nam becoming a member of the U.N. was hailed by Senators Hubert Humphrey and George McGovern.
Senate Majority Leader Robert Byrd appeared surprised by the announcement. He said he thinks any proposal for Congressional approval of aid to Vietnam would have widespread opposition.
No new agreement seen
in nuclear controversy
Secretary of State Cyrus Vance in- dicated yesterday he sees little promise of an agreement on nuclear weapons when he meets in Geneva later this month with Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko.
Vance said he does not want to predict what might come out of the new meetings, but said neither side will be going into the talks with any new proposals.
Vance said neither side has moved from the positions which caused a deadlock in Moscow.
There have been other discussions, on other levels, with the Soviet Union since the deadlock in Moscow in March, but Vance said no new proposals have been offered.
"Nobody has moved from their positions at this point, but they are talking to each other," Vance said, adding that it Is always possible that something con- structive can come out of the Geneva meeting.
Vance also said the Carter ad- ministration will outline what it considers to be a fair and equitable solution to the Arab-Israeli conflict within the next few months.
U.S. 'unilaterally opposed' to South African policies
Secretary of State Cyrus Vance said yesterday the U.S. is "unilaterally op- posed" to the racial policies of South Africa.
Vance said the issue will be brought up , with Southern African authorities at a top-
level meeting next week when Vice President Walter Mondale meets in Vienna with South African Prime Minister John Vorster.
Vance disclosed that the U.S. and Great Britain will be ready to unveil a joint plan within the next ten days for a peaceful transition to black rule in Rhodesia.
Reporters who attended Vance's news conference yesterday were searched and forced to go through a metal detector, the first time such stringent security measures have been imposed at a State Department news conference.
No explanation was given for the searches, but a spokesman said they were an insult to accredited newsmen and could not be repeated.
Justice Dept. memo
reveals voter problems A memorandum prepared by the Justice
Department's Criminal Division has warned that the administration's proposal for voter registration on election day could increase voting frauds.
The memorandum was disclosed yesterday at a hearing of the Senate Rules Committee, but Deputy Atty. Gen. Peter Flaherty refused to let the senators have a copy of the memo.
Flaherty invoked the doctrine of executive priviledge, adding that it was an internal matter and had to be first discussed with Atty. Gen. Griffin Bell.
An attorney in the Justice Department's Criminal Division said the memo was a statement of concern rather than a memorandum. He said it was not based on "in-depth research."
Outside the hearing room, Flaherty said he feels there are sufficient safeguards against fraud in the bill on election day registration. He also said that the few states which now have such registration have experienced only negligible fraud.
Republican opponents of the bill in the Senate and House have argued that the bill would be an invitation to fraudulent voting. They see the bill as a Democratic attempt to gain more votes in federal elections.
Representative submits
resignation from Congress
U.S. Rep. Rick Tonry (D-La.) yesterday submitted his resignation from the House because of a voting fraud in his primary election.
Tonry said he will run for the House seat again when Louisiana Gov. Edwin Edwards calls a new election to fill the vacancy.
A Louisiana state judge ruled last month that Tonry won the democratic nomination for the House through voting fraud, but there are no charges that Tonry himself was involved in the fraud. However, at least one election official
claimed that this was so.

Achievement linked to family Editor's note: This is the second of twoarticlesdeallng with a student's ac- complishments and what effect family background has on those achievements.
By Jamie Plerman Staff Reporter
Socioeconomic class- family background- is the most important factor in determining a student's academic achievement, according to a scientific study and two University faculty members.
Gerald R. Bergman, in- structor of education, said.
"If you want to produce bright kids, you've got to do it in the family."
Personality. academic achievement ami divorce rate are related to socioeconomic class or "It could be the lack of education," Irwin W. Silverman, associate professor of psychology, said.
According to Silverman. the Coleman Report, prepared ten years ago, is still the best study of predictors of academic achievement. The study found that the family and wealth were the best
predictors of academic achievement.
The report tried to determine if school facilities, the age of the physical plant, the extent of teachers' education or class size determined student's suc- cess in school
None of these were found to be accurate prediotors. "The one thing that did predict was the child's background," Silverman said.
The more affluent the parents, the higher the child's IQ, and the higher the 1Q, the more affluent the
child will probably become, Silverman said.
Silverman called the problem a "ball of wax and unravelling the parts is impossible" without using children in experiments.
"The benefits of education are clear, but it's hard to prove it. We can't inflict damage on someone for the sake of research,' Bergman said.
Bergman, who has worked extensively with the patients at Toledo and Tiffin state mental hospitals, said he thinks mast mcntallv ill
persons simply lack education.
The best therapy for these patients. Bergman said, is education. Often the tutoring lessons are phychology lessons, with the therapist instructing the patient about the way the mind works.
When Bergman was a corrections officer, he noted most of the arrested persons were never educated beyond the ninth grade.
College graduates were rare. Bergman said, and were usually involved in crimes like embezzlement and jury tampering.
L/PCAC moves to hove representative act os member of trustees' committee
By David Harris
The University Police- Community Advisory Committee (UPCAC) met yesterday to discuss the ad hoc committee on policies and procedures of the University Police established by the Board of Trustees.
"The committee is not designed to replace this
committee." said Don A. Brown, chairman. "The committee is designed to get the police side of the story."
The ad hoi- committee will overlap in function with UPC AC but will not abolish Ul VAC, he added.
What this committee has done in the past has been beneficial to the community. There is no need to throw in the towel yet." University
Police I.t. Roger A.Daoust said. The trustees made a commitment to Black Student Union and the Human Rights Alliance to look into their proposal," he said.
Thomas D. Klein, assistant professor of English, said UPCAC should be represented on the ad hoc committee. A motion was passed to attempt to put a
member of UPCAC on the trustees' committee
THE UPCAC MEMBER would "avoid duplication and utilize the experience of this committee," said St.■l.nii.i E. Gross, assistant professor of romance languages. Brown added that the ad hoe committee was formed out of "ac- tiveness rather than
Law now covers public broadcasters
frustration I think we do have a very valuable input to make to that committee."
Awareness training was advised as a means for the campus police officer to cope with the special problems at a university. Brown suggested some formal awareness package or In- formal rap sessions on campus.
' There has got to be an interaction between both factions."Daoust said. "We have to sit down and talk to relieve the stress.

The Ohio Senate recently passed. 31-0. a bill extending the state's news shield law to reporters from non- commercial television and radio stations.
The bill. Senate Bill 106. was authored by State Sen. Paul E. Gillmor (R-Port Clinton i, Senate assistant minority leader, following a suggestion by local broad- caster Steven L. Brash.
Brash, news and public affairs director for WBGU- TV (Channel 57), wrote to Gillmor in February asking the senator to add public broadcasters to the existing statute, which protects reporters for both broadcast stations and newspapers from being required to
reveal their sources of news items
HOWEVER, BRASH pointed out, the current law extends only to commercial broadcasters, and not to public or educational broadcasters.
Brash said he was prompted to request the addition to the statute following a discussion in a nevrswriting class he taught at the University. Brash said one of his students informed him of the gap in the law.
Brash said he contacted Gillmor because the Senator was instrumental in making previous changes in the shield law.
"This protection can be of significant help in getting information for certain types of news stories, particularly in investigations of corruption where con-
fidentiality is important," Gillmor was quoted as saying in a news release.
Brash said although he has never been in a situation where he needed the news shield law, the opportunity exists.
"PUBLIC BROAD- CASTERS have begun covering public affairs more in depth," Brash said. "There's always a possibility of investigative reporting."
"Many of these news departments function in substantially the same way as commercial stations and there seems to be no reason that they should not receive the same protection of the news shield law," Gillmor said.
"We become privy to in-
formation which wc know is accurate." Brash said, "but, for a variety of reasons, we cannot attribute it."
Brash said the law would be most useful in in- vestigations of corruption by public officials. He said he has not pursued that topic in Bowling Green.
Brash said the law could be ased in reporting on the natural gaa and energy problems, upon which he said WBGU-TV has repor- ted.

Imagine coming to the University after spending your first two years at a branch campus and not attending an orientation program to give you some idea what It's like.
For many students coming to main campus from the Firelands branch, this is what happens. However the situation may change.
West Campus Firelands Student Association, a new organization promoting cohesion between the University and the Firelands branch campus, has begun to take action.
THE GROUP is headed by three board members, Keven Bache, the Student Government Association's liaison to Firelands, Dave Woodbum and Peter Mellen. Rick Scheel and Tom Cun- ningham act as secretary and public communicator, respectively.
This board's goals include the establishment of a rapport between the cam- puses, assisting with the orientation and assimilation of Firelands campus students into Bowling Green social and academic life and promoting positive relationships between the campuses.
"At Firelands, a large
class is made up of around SO students with the average class containing no more than 15 to 20. Here a large class has around 100 to ISO students," Mellen said. "Firelands students are used to having one-on-one situations with professors and it is a shock to come here and find a difference.
Studies have proven that although Firelands students do as well as University students overall, the first quarter usually shows a drop In grades," Mellen said. "The incoming student goes through the freshmen ex- perience as a junior, only without the orientation phase."
Hazel Smith, director of the Commuter Center and adviser to the association said she first became aware of the situation last year when she spoke at Firelands.
"It's a disgraceful state of affairs and it has existed too long." Smith said. "I feel very bad that more progress hasn't been made in the assimilation of Firelands students into our univer- sity."
SMITH WILL head a group of representatives from various organizations on

The service, Lockheed- DIALOG Information Retrieval System, originates In Palo Alto, Calif., and makes listings of available books and Journals almost immediately.
The system is offered to both students and faculty at a fee, which varies ac- cording to the amount of time the search takes, Poulos said.
Undergraduates using the service are required to pay the full charge, but graduate students and faculty pay only the first third for any search costing up to ISO.
The balance of the fee is funded by the Faculty Development Program Implementation Research Committees.
ADVANTAGES OF DIALOG are speed and specificity, Poulos said. Manual indexes usually
contain only general subject headings which apply to large numbers of documents, she said. Con- sequently, the user must still scan a large amount of material to identify specific items, often taking hours of reseach time, she added.
DIALOG eliminates this manual searching by providing information quickly and efficiently, Poulos said. The librarian commands the computer by way of a teletype keyboard, and listings of books and journals on the topic are relayed almost immediately.
Some of the Indexes DIAlXMi searches are psychological abstracts, science citation, social science citation and chemical abstracts.
For more information regarding the DIALOG system, contact the library.

Make NCAAs American or deport foreigners A starry-eyed Wilson Waigwa, the University of Texas at
El Paso i UTEPi distance ace via Kenya, was featured on the cover of the April "Track and Field News." Under Waigwa's picture was the simple headline, "Foreigners DomiateNCAA."
Inside the story was told of how Americans were not in the team race for this year's NCAA Indoor Track and Field Championships. Non-natives won 10 of IS individual events, composed each leg of one relay winner and played a major role in deciding the team battle.
Hill Estep
So what else is new? UTEP's "Kenya Korps" has captured three NCAA Indoor
and two cross country titles the last four years. In 1975 they swept the cross country, indoor and outdoor championships. Foreign-laden Washington State won the national indoor crown this year.
THE TOP collegians in America are not from this country. They're from Sweden. They're from Ireland. They're from Kenya.
Take last year's NCAA outdoor chase for example. The first two finmshers in the 1,500-meter run were from Ireland and Kenya. The top three placers in the 5,000 were Kenyans from Washington State.
Kenyan John Ngeno of Washington State won the 10,000 over niinios' American standout Craig Virgin for the third straight year at 10,000 meters.
But the problem doesn't end with the nationals. What about Olympic competition?
How can you justify a Hasley Crawford, who "trains" four
years at Eastern Michigan University, wins a Mid-American Conference (MAC) 100-yard dash title, an NCAA 100-meter dash title, and then runs for Trinidad and Tobago at the Montreal Olympic Games and wins a gold medal in the 100?
You cant.
HOW CAN you Justify a Don Quarrie, who "usee" the University of Southern California, then sprints for Jamaica in the Olympics and garners a gold in the 200 and a silver in the 100?
You can't However, the question is not whether the athlete is foreign.
It's whether he's too old. Englishmen Gordon Mlnty was 26 when he won the six and three-mile runs and finished fourth in the mile at the 1974 MAC outdoor race.
It bothers BG coach Mel Brodt. It bothers a lot of coaches.
"What I'm against is basically the world class, overaged foreign athlete who is recruited only for his ability for track and not his educational ability," Brodt said.
"I FEEL they're definitely being exploited. Sure, they put the University on the map. As a coach, I feel no qualms in saying that person who is a coach, is not a coach. All he is is a recruiter and a manager.
"In 1973, the age rule was still in there," Brodt claimed. "For every year over 19 that you competed on foreign soil, you lost a year of eligibility.
"That rule was thrown out in the fall of 1973. The rule was challenged by Howard University, an Eastern school which had won the NCAA soccer championship. The NCAA found out that they had a great number of ov» raged foreigners on their team.
"They (NCAA) took away their medals, their trophy, their championship. Then Howard took it to court and one judged ruled that foreign athletes have the same rights as any other student enrolled in college. And that's where it's at now. He can run competitively six years in Nigeria and then come over here and still run.
•TT SHOULD disturb a lot of people if they Just look at the situation," Brodt said. Initially, you get them for a bag of beans or whatever you want to throw into it because they want to get out of their country and get over here for the competition.
"Education is, well you can put quotes around it. They will present more problems than an American athlete many times over. Summer employment, wiping their nose, picking them up at the airport. And communication is another thing."
Brodt cites the case of Waigwa at the 1974 NCAA Indoor Championships.
"I tried to talk to him to congratulate him on the great run he had. And a quarter-miler for UTEP, the only American on the team, said don't bother talking to him because he doesn't understand English, nor speak it. Now what are you sup- posed to believe? If I wrote him a letter somebody would read it to him.
"SOME OF the other schools will go after foreigners who speak English. But UTEP, Washington State, New Mexico, they all go after the Africans who speak no English.
"In fact, you can still venture to say that some of them are here now who still don't speak any English. Then you talk about the coaches bringing them over for education pur- poses, which is a lot of boloney."
BG presently has three foreign competitors-Canadians Michel Raymond and Steve Housey and South African Ivor Emmanuel. None were actively recruited by Brodt and all three received aid equal to one grant.
And let's remember Canada and Mexico are in North America. A Michel Raymond is not a Wilson Waigwa. He didn't cross the continent ot compete. And what about the high-powered American hockey programs which carry a Canadian flavor?
BUT WHATS the solution to perplexing problem for the overaged foreigner, ala Kenya or Nigeria?
"My way of thinking is that athletic directors can control it." Brodt said. "Burt Smith at Michigan State got rid of foreigners on their soccer team when he discovered there was too much money going out. You can't tell me it can't be controlled. It has to come from athletic directors, if it's going to be controlled at all."
Another solution is the elimination of national cham- pionships. But that's a last resort. There's no answer until coaches decide to boycott meets or the NCAA reinstates the age-limit ruling.
And what's the likelihood that a coach like UTEP's Ted Banks would sacrifice a top-flight, championship program for American athletes7
Yes, I can just hear him laughing.

Gill's netters host Eastern today .„. _ _ M Mb _.£,' • J °Z°Y By Bob Renney Staff Reporter
The men netters will continue their season-long struggle to reach 500. when they battle Eastern Michigan here this afternoon.
The Falcons. 7-10 overall, and 2-1 in the Mid-American Conference, desperately need to oust the Hurons if they hope to finish at .500 and be serious contenders for the conference title.
Currently. Miami is leading the pack with a 6-0 league slate and 19-7 overall. The defending champs have all members from last year's team back.
Although Eastern Michigan is 8-8, and 2-3. BG coach Bob Gill is not taking the Hurons lightly.
I EXPECT A VERY close match with Eastern," Gill said. "Our only common opponent is Ohio University, and they
beat them 6-3, and we lost 5-4. BG's season picture should be painted a little clearer this
weekend. After Eastern Michigan, the netters play a quadrangular match at Ball State with Toledo and non- conference club Taylor.
"These next two weekends are the bigest to us," GUI said. If not for the team, at least forGill.
"BALL STATE IS a big rivalry for me because their coach

Bill Richards used to be my assistant here at BG. Every year the loser of the match has to take the winner and his wife out to dinner," Gill said.
The number two doubles team of Brian Hufter and Rob Dowling continue to be the Falcon's most productive spot. This past weekend the pair won two matches at the number two spot and one at number one doubles tomove to U4 for the year.
The combination of Glenn Johnson and Tom Olson at number one doubles has clicked for a 9-7 record, while the first year tandem of Steve Corey and Andy Cantrell are 4-9 at the number three position. Gill is presently using Sid Caullng in favor of Cantrell at the third spot.
In singles action, Corey has won eight of his last nine outings and now stands 10-7 for the year. Seconding Corey, ia Johnson and Huffer at 9-8, while Couling is up to 8-9 after a bad start.

BG's lady laxers will not be resting this weekend.
The lacrosse team ven- tures to Delaware today to play Ohio Wesleyan in what coach Carol Durentini labels a "must game."
This match will be one of the biggest of the season," Durentini said. "Denlson and Wesleyan are very
closely matched and both are strong teams."
The Falcons lost one match to Denison earlier in the season, 8-6, 6-8 and captured two other short games at Sauk Valley, 3-0 and 2-0.
SATURDAY, THE laxers will compete in three games, hosting an alumni match, Ohio State and Ball State, all within four hours at the
men's soccer field. Sunday, the Pittsburgh Club visits.
After the alumni match, the laxers will have to get down to business. In doing so, Durentini said she hopes to better their 7-2-1 record.
The match against the fairly new Ohio State squad will begin at 11 a.m. "1 think they have a lot of carryover from the field hockey team so they might be strong, but
I'm not sure." Durentini said.
BAM. STATE has a new coach and they haven't been exceptionally strong in the past, Durentini said. "But this year they have speed and are as fast as wc are."
Durentini cited stickwork and strategy as the key to their game.
This is Pittsburgh Club's first time on the BG schedule.

Romsek, women defend titles ByBUIEitcp
AiMdatc Sporti Editor
Dab Rooisefc's major competition at Friday! Ohio State Relays may be Deb Romsek.
While her Falcon women's track teammates defend their state crown on the Ohio Stadium oval, Romsek will be out to defend three in- dividual titles won last year.
The Jackson, Mich., sophomore captured the 400- meter and 100-meter hurdles and the 440-yard dash. She also anchored the BG mile relay squad, another winner.
School record holder 'in three events, Romsek finished fourth in the 400- meter hurdles at
nationals and garnered eighth at the AAU nationals last spring.
BUT NOW, Romseks still a step, or a second, away from the Assn. for Inter- collegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW) national run.
"She qualified for nationals in the third meet of last year," BG coach Dave Williams said. "But the qualifying standard was 64.0. This year it's 62.6."
"It's been a psychological problem for me this year," Romsek said yesterday, "and that's been disap- pointing. Now I'm Just glad I'm over it and over my slump.
"My major competition is definitely myself," she said. "I'm really not interested in competing against others. I'm my main concern."
THAT MIGHT sound logical, but she has to beat someone. Right?
"I'll probably be con- sidered the favorite in the 400 hurdles," Romsek said. "We've been running against mostly Michigan teams and I'm not sure what the rest of the state has."
Williams is. "Ohio State doesn't have
any 400-meter hurdlers and neither does anyone else," Williams said. "She's In a class by herself.
The track may have an effect on her. Ohio State's track has narrow turns, small lanes and there's no competition in that event."
IF ROMSEK doesn't hit the magic qualifying mark in her specialty Friday, she'll get a second shot at joining BG's two-mile relay quartet and javelin thrower l.ornii Miller at the AIAW chase at Michigan State Monday..
"The coach from Michigan State called Monday and asked if I wanted to run in the time trial Monday," Romsek said. "They also have two girls close to qualifying. It's just a time trial and it would count.''
But first Romsek has to beat herself Friday.
FINISH UNES-WUliams views the meet aa a two-team battle between Ohio State, two-time champion, and BG.
...With freshmen Debbie Wernert, a vital leg to BG's mile relay squad, still idle with a hamstring pull, the Falcons will aim to qualify for the USTFF nationals in the event. The AIAW qualifying deadline is Monday...
Middle-distance ace Robin Mansfield will return to action this weekend after a two-week bout with the flu .. . shot putter Kathy Hodkey went 40-6 in practice. The school record is 38-10.
Gridders' concern is defense
Pinch hitting on oil sports SHORT STUFF :All of-
fense and no defense? That's what many people are projecting for the 1977 Falcon football team.
Much has been said about senior-to-be Mark Miller's expertise at running the offensive show. Split end Willie Matthews, tailback Doug Wiener and others should also bolster BG's scoring outlook.
But defense remains the main area of concern at this Juncture of spring practice. New coach Denny Stolz even hinted towards that after two hours of mud sloshing yesterday.
"We've had about seven players who have really
grubbed by the New England Patriots in the 12th and final round of the NFI. draft yesterday.
Preston is BG's all-time leading rustier.
BASF.BAIi. BITS-The Falcon diamondmen, winless in two Mid-American Conference outings, face a do-or-dir situation with two critical league doubleheadcrs on the road this weekend
Tomorrow, coach Don Purvis' club duels with Ball State, while Saturday is hard-hitting Miami.
In all games, BG may be playing without its hottest hitter. Jeff Groth.
Terry- Goodman
. ii stood out and been consistent," St.il/ admitted, "but we're trying a lot of guya in different com- binations.
"There is a lot of com- petition at the linebacker and defensive back positions," he said. "Nobody has come to the top and nailed down a Job yet."
One of the biggest sur- prises so far has been fresh- man walk-on Tim Ross, a defensive end from Toledo that resembles an un- polished Carl Kller. the all- pro from Minnesota.
"He came out of nowhere, but seems to have good potential," Stolz said.
The spring game is a week from Saturday.
In more grid news, senior- to-be linebacker Cliff Car- penter, who prematurely quit the squad last week, rejoined the team Monday The 225-pounder may also tee action at defensive end.
Also, tailback Dave Preston, soon to be lost through graduation, was
The ct'iiterfielder banged his left knee against Toledo's home run fence last Saturday.
Groth's knee is badly bruised and he's listed as doubtful.
"And 1 felt he was really coming along at the plate," Purvis said. "Hopefully, this temporary setback won't slow him down too much."
Jeff had collected hits in 15 of his last 16 games and smacked three home runs in that span.
Incidentally, yesterday's rainout of the twinbill with Findlay College has been reset for next Tuesday at Steller Field.
PRO PICKS-Now that the professional basketball and hockey playoffs are finally winding down, I'll gamble and stick my neck out.
After Philadelphia pur- chased Julius (Dr. J) Erving, I picked the 76ers to win the NBA crown.
Well. I'll stay with that, although I.os Angeles iwho
played Golden State in the final game of their best-of- seven series last night after this was written) will be a mighty tough obstacle.
Reasoning in picking the 76ers and Inkers in the finals is simple: They both hold their own on foreign courts.
In the NHI„ look for the Boston Bruins to upset the Montreal Canadiens for the Stanley Cup. After watching both teams twice on the tube, this writer was more im- pressed with the way the Beantown boys canned Philadelphia in four straight.
Also Boston's two over- time victories were the most exciting back-to-back playoff games I've ever witnessed.
WHAT'S WRONG WITH...-Here arc some tiresome questions running around campus:
1. "What's wrong with the Indians?"
2. "What's wrong with the Phillies?"
3. "Why can't the Angels and the Reds get going?"
The complete synopsis of the answers to the above is difficult to outline. But a good part of it. in this corner, is the time of season.
This year was typical April-raining and snowing out many baseball games.
And the overflow of open dates on the schedule throws the timing off of pitchers AND batters.
Pennants are won and lost during the summer. When the temperatures reach 80
&
and the doubleheaders mount. It's much too early to write off a Cleveland, Cincinnati. Philadelphia or California.
In fact, I think those particular teams will win at least 90 games.
But the way a Los Angeles (19-41 is playing, who knows if that'll be enough?
PHIPPS ERA-Clcveland owner Art Modell called it "the end of an era" Tuesday, when he traded veteran quarterback Mike Phipps to the Chicago Bears in ex- change for draft choices.
Covering the Browns' training camp at Kent State last summer, I can recall how the coaching staff raved that they'd never seen Phipps throw better.
Then came a shoulder injury to Mike in Cleveland's opener against the New York Jets.
Brian Sipe came on to adequately lead the Browns to a 9-5 campaign. Phipps rarely got another chance and asked to be traded.
The Purdue graduate, who took much of the blame for Uie Browns' downfall in the early 70's, was always the fans favorite to pick on. That's the quarterback's unfortunate dilemma in many NFI. cities.
But now going to Chicago with all-pro halfback Walter Payton, Phipps gets a golden opportunity to prove himself in the Windy City.
KUDOS FOR YOUNG- Recently, a writer from the News questioned University President Hollis Moore's openness and accessibility to BG students.
In the Bowling Green's sports whirl, Athletic Director Dick Young is certainly not guilty of that.
In fact. Young can be seen at various Falcon sporting events all year long. During baseball games, when Young could easily find a seat in the small confines of the press box, he usually chooses to mingle with the crowd in- stead.
His openness to fans is certainly commendable. More administrators should take notice.
