The color of her skin has not held 

her back. As a child she made her 

Broadway debut with Helen Hayes in 

The Wisteria Trees and later performed 

in numerous successful plays on and 

off Broadway 

But she soon realized that a dearth 

of Broadway roles for black women 

would make a career in theater 

impossible. She also knew that black 

poets and writers lacked sufficent 

public exposure. Her solution: create 

her own one-woman show, 

implementing the poetry and prose of 

Black Americans. 

She is Vfcue Burrows, and she is 

bringing her own unique and 

chanting theater genre to The College 

of Wooster September 21 as part of the 

1986 Wooster Forum series. Burrows

women of all ages, races, creeds and

The performance is open to the 

public without charge. 

A native New Yorker and graduate 

of New York University, Burrows 

opened as the lone performer in her 

own production. Walk Together 

Children, in 1968. The critical acclaim 

for this performance of prose, poetry 

and song was tremendous. The New 

York Post labeled her, "funny, gutsy, 

diverse and colorful, ironic and 

apocalyptic." " 

Other solo performances developed 

by Burrows include, Dark Fire, a 

retelling of Africa; "From Swords to

Secular vs. 

By David Dean 

Sacred 

Through out America's social-religious history the 

struggle to define whether society is basically, in its moral 

fiber, secular or sacred has been an ongoing debate between 

two factions. The first faction supports the separation of 

Church and State while the other maintains that separation 

has led to moral and traditional ruin of American society. 

However, are the two distinctions that clear? 

"'Our forefathers clearly stressed the concept of "freedom of 

religion" so as not to repeat the religious repressions In 

England but at the same time it insured "toleration" of any 

faith outside the bounds of the Christlan-Jude-o faith. 

However, it Is interesting to note that almost every aspect of 

the governmental structure has within it a Chrlstlan-Jude-o 

influence (le. money, pledge of alllgence, oaths, and Judicial 

swearing In) which suggests that religious toleration was 

accepted only IT It did not Infringe upon the monopoly of the 

Chrlstian-Jude- o faith. 

As the United States became increasingly diverse In Its 

ethnic, racial and religious make-u- p the power structure of 

America was challenged by different minorities who 

interrupted "freedom of religion" as a neutralizing measure 

aimed at ridding the domination of any one faith. In the 

1960s and 70s It was the atheistic movement that demanded 

that mandatory school prayer and Christian ornaments be 

removed from public areas. Some critic believed that this 

de-Chrlstianizatlon 

marked the beginning of the of America. 

In 19S0 the Republicans sensed the growing discontent 

among traditional and conservative religious factions. In 1980 

the party platform supported family rejuvenation, religious 

values and a return to bask American values. Fundamental 

religious leaders like Jerry Falwell and Billy Graham sought 

the support of those Individuals who believed that the time 

had come to clean up years of moral decay. They blamed 

moral decline, teenage pregnancy, and 

rock-n-ro-ll on 

excessive humanistic philosophy which was supported by the 

left. In their moral crusade they sought to reassert America as 

a nation united under God. By 1984 they succeeded In 

controlling the White House and attempted to overturn years 

and years of legal decisions concerning the separation of 

Church and State. 

America cannot afford to return to Utopian designs of a 

perfect Christian community ' supported by the religious right; 

neither can we continue to vacillate between that which is 

sacred and that which is secular. We must be firm In our 

resolve, but flexible enough to compromise. I attended the 

198th General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church, USA 

this past summer and I was stunned by a remark made by a 

southern minister in regard to a question about the role of the 

sacred In the secular. The minister remarked," In America 

today we can no longer dissect the difference between the 

Democrats and the Christians." Implied in that statement was 

that excessive humanistic philosophy that characterizes the 

Democratic way of thinking has permeated the religious 

community so thoroughly that the Christian faith has lost its 

identity. Assimilation and not separation has perhaps been 

acheived by the Christian community. In this respect we can 

only hope.

Accept 

By Satan Gale 

Being a student at The College of 

Wooster can mean many different 

things. A large part of being a student 

here is being a member of a very 

diversified group and being able to 

accept the many different kinds of 

people in that group. 

However, all over the world the 

signs of non-accepta-nce are apparent. 

One can see it in South Africa, 

Nicaragua, Ireland and even in the 

United States. Not being able to accept 

others as they are is the major problem 

in the world today. It is the factor that 

starts all wars large or smalL It is the 

reason for President Reagan's Star Wars 

program, for apartheid in South Africa, 

and for the unrest in Nicaragua and 

Ireland. 

There will never be peace for our 

world because there is always 

non-accepted oppression of the and the 

non-accepted will always fight back in 

the form of war. The answer seems so 

simple. The people of the world must 

take the time to accept the differences 

in other peoples. We would then be 

able to begin to find peace for .our 

world. 

There is always talk of 

acceptance. Listening to many songs, 

any politition's speechs, , or a 

conversation between two College of 

Wooster students one can hear the wish 

for acceptance and peace. Many people 

preach for peace but then commit 

non-acceptance actions of that 

contradict that stated wish for peace. 

Our only hope to preserve the 

future of our world is to follow the 

ideas of peace and to begin to accept 

those people that are different from 

ourselves. In fact, we must take the 

time to learn and understand the ways 

in which others are different or we will 

be bound to a world of people who are 

petrified of those who are different from 

themselves and we will soon destroy 

our world. 

Many people will probably say 

that it is a dream to expect everyone to 

begin accepting everyone else. They 

will say that the world does not work 

that way and that everything that is 

gained is done by fighting down the 

non-accepted. I do not believe in this 

philosophy of life. I think it will be 

possible to have peace through 

acceptance in the future. However, we 

must begin now in our own day to day 

lives by taking the time to accept 

others as they are and to not try to 

change them to make them more like 

ourselves. The College of Wooster 

with all of its diversity gives each of 

us a wonderful chance to learn to 

accept peoples different from ourselves 

and we would be hurting ourselves as 

well as the future of the world if we do 

not take that chance and learn to accept 

others as they are. 

Letters to 

the Editor 

Dear Editor 

Aside from its obvious and vast 

positive attributes, education is very 

much a selfish act in practice. We as 

students spend most of our time in 

lectures and alone reading course related 

material confident that we are bettering 

ourselves. This is an important time 

for us and well spent, but sometimes 

many of us find it useful to divert our 

energies toward other activities such as 

social clubs where we can be in contact 

with others. Organizations such as 

these exist on many college campuses 

and are obvious to the students, but 

many new Wooster students and maybe 

some upperclass students may not be 

aware of the great number of 

opportunities Wooster provides for us 

through various social service 

programs.' 

I have been involved in the Ida 

Sue Program, which gives students the 

chance to work with the mentally and 

physically handicapped, for three years 

and I have found it very gratifying and 

an important part of my experience 

here. We have approximatley sixty 

students involved in this program in 

numerous, fashions. It is my belief 

that there is an area for everyone to 

work in our program that they will find 

interesting and enjoyable. 

Located just minutes , from 

campus is the Ida Sue School and Nick 

Amster Sheltered Workshop where 

Wooster students can assit and 

participate in the daily activities that go 

on in this unique institution. . The 

help that the Wooster Students bring to 

the school and workshop is greatly 

appreciated by the school's students and 

the employees of the workshop as well 

as the administration. 

Programs such as ours give the . 

students the opportunity to use their 

talents for the benefit of others, be it 

from academis tutoring in math or 

musicto an array of athletic activities 

including swimming once a week in 

our campus pooL 

The education I am recieving here 

is very important to me, but I also find 

it very useful to do something that 

involves others and that I know is 

immediatley important. Often 

working towards a four year degree can 

seem unrelated to the realities of life. 

The people and situations that one 

comes in contact with in the Ida Sue 

Program are challenging and . 

meaningful. I hope that if any of you 

feel you might enjoy this type of ' 

activity or just want to find out more 

about it that you will contact me.

Dear Editor 

The "comic strip" (and we put that 

in quotations, for there is nothing 

"comic" about it) in the September " 

12th issue of the Wooster. Voice is not 

only a slanderous statement against ther 

residents of Babcock International ' 

House, but is also just plain 

irresponible journalism. 

Over the past several years Babcock,.. 

has been consistently stereotyped as 

"the foriegn dorm." This results in a 

gross misconception that only 

"foreigners" are residents of Babcock 

(as the un-com-ic strip implies). In 

fact, Babcock International House is 

composed of 30 international students'" 

and 64 American students (there are 

180 international students on campus). 

Because of the unique atmosphere 

created by this mixture of students, we 

believe that Babcock is perhaps the m 

most desirable living option available ' 

at the College. Furthermore, this i 

option is open to the entire campus I 

community.

By Bethany Young and Richard Crouse 

Divestment has been a major issue 

of controversy on the College of 

Wooster campus for the past several 

years. The question has been: "should 

the college feel morally obliged to 

divest itself of stock in companies 

currently located in or doing business 

with South Africa?" While the 

trustees are responsible to ensure that 

the college does not lose money they 

also have an obligation to the Scot's 

Key which "will not tolerate racism" . 

(page 36). 

The controversy lies in how the 

college community can best influence 

the South African Government to end 

aparthied. Until now the argument has 

been that Wooster should continue 

holding their investments with the 

optimistic hope that its small voice 

will influence the actions of these 

companies and the South African 

government Apartheid ,a government 

policy advocating racism ,is 

responsible for the imprisonment and 

death of countless South African 

Blacks. 

The College Owns stock in a large 

array of companies. Presently less than 

one percent of the College's portfolio 

is in stocks such as Timken and 

General Motors which have factories in 

South Africa. Attempting to support 

the continuation of College investment 

in Timken and General Motors, it is 

often argued that the American 

companies offer an improved lifestyle 

to their black employees. In fact the 

blacks still live and work under 

deplorable conditions. Typically 

blacks, are transported in from their 

shanty towns each week and forced to 

eat and sleep within the deplorable 

confines of the factory in which they 

work. 

Foreign businesses are subject to 

South African Laws designed "to 

assure that apartheid continues to 

thrive. Only whites are hired for 

management level positions and U.S. 

firms are not allowed to pay blacks 

better then the minimal wages set by 

South African firms. By investing in 

companies that obey the laws of 

apartheid the College of Wooster is in 

fact reinforcing the racist policies of the 

South African Government. 

Multi-nationals argue that by 

being so actively involved in the 

South African economy they can 

influence the minority white regime to 

mend its ways. Many companies, 

however, would not continue to 

succeed were it not for the high profits 

assured by the apartheid laws. 

The "Sullivan Principles" (a 

statement designed to promote more 

fair treatment of black South African 

workers) has been signed by a large 

number of U. S. corporations. 

However the effectiveness of the 

document is seriously questioned. 

Wooster owns stock in The Timkin 

corporation which has been very 

generous in its donations to the 

College, but has not yet become - a 

signatory to The Sullivan Principles! 

Last spring a committee of 

students, faculty, administration and 

trustees met to discuss the college's 

investment policy regarding South 

Africa. 

committee 

and in 

expected to offer its recommendations 

to the Board of Trustees. On 

September twenty-eight- h a vote will be 

taken on the proposal to be submitted. 

The proposal includes criteria for 

identifying companies in Wooster's 

portfolio which contribute to the 

oppression of blacks in South Africa. 

The College will then seek to engage 

these companies in dialogue and 

persuade them to rectify their policies. 

If a company is unresponsive the 

College will divest itself of the stock. 

The proposal represents an 

improvement over the present policy, 

however, many important points are 

not addressed or are too vague to be 

implemented. 

Members of the Student Concerns 

Network propose that it would be a 

more active decision to divest our 

stock from such companies and join 

the growing number of academic 

institutions which , through 

divestment, have actively professed 

their disapproval of apartheid. 

Last week at a meeting of the 

investment committee there was a 

peaceful demonstration held in Lowry 

Center . Approximately thirty students 

representing various organizations read 

South African poetry and 

remembered some of the injustices that

have occurred since the State of 

Emergency was enacted . Individuals 

interested in the divestment issue meet

Incredibly and unbelievably, this 

college still has a good amount of its 

investments in companies operating in 

South Africa. No less a person than 

the president of this college defends 

not only the College's investments in 

these companies, but goes further to 

defend the role of UJS. corporations in 

South Africa. Td justify the UJS.'s 

role, myths have been created mat 

justify a hypocritical UJS. stand and a 

continuation of the status quo. The 

myths that foreign corporations play a

that sanctions are ineffective, that 

sanctions would hurt Blacks the most, 

and that if the regime is overthrown,

South Africa's only purpose apears to 

be to provide the rest of the world with 

a sense of moral superiority). If South 

Africa did not exist, a certain sort of 

person would have to invent it so that 

he could feel better. 

About those who support 

sanctions, I would observe that they 

appear never to be concerned with the 

sort of change they think their actions 

would incite. Will a "new" South 

Africa be better or worse? If one's goal 

is stable and constructive change, then 

one should consider sanctions as 

counter-productiv- e. Surely the more 

contact South Africa has with the rest 

of the West, the more likely it will 

become sensitive to the West's racial 

values. Sanctions would close South 

Africa off from the rest of the world 

and make constructive change less 

of the same arguments are 

applicable to the divestment 

movement.- - One suggestion to be 

made to students who attend colleges 

with investments in South Africa is 

that they refuse to continue to attend or 

to accept financial aid made possible by 

such investments. Such action would 

be a far less theatrical and more 

effective manner in which to show 

one's disapproval of "one of the 

jgn atest perversions of human society 

in existence today." ( The Wooster 

Voice, Sept.12, 1986) This 

suggestion is not likely to be taken if, 

as I suspect, many people support the 

divestment movement because it is 

fashionable to do so.

(Vou Fidvxe rr our) 

No Name 

by David AJbh 

As of press time this problem was 

still vague and unclear to me. 

Apparently, last week's comic strip, 

"Bruno Savage" offended some 

members of our campus, the 

International Students Association and 

the GayLesbian Support Group. 

While I am sympathetic to any group's 

legitimate concerns of prejudice being 

directed at them, I must admit that I do 

not see the alleged prejudice which 

these groups have claimed were 

presented in last week's "Bruno 

Savage." This columnist isn't naive, 

just confused as to why these groups 

are up in arms. 

" 

For those of you who have 

forgotten or missed last week's 

thrill-packe- d, introductory episode of 

"Bruno Savage" these are the facts: It 

was International Night at Babcock and 

Security had received a complaint that 

the event was getting a little rowdy. 

The stereo was just a little too loud I 

assume. Enter Bruno Savage, the 

chemotherapy of crime prevention. 

Bruno is, to put it bluntly, rather 

overzealous in the pursuit of his duty 

as he interprets it As evidenced by the 

fact that Bruno disregards the "OFF 

button on the stereo in question and 

instead opts to fill the defenseless 

Pioneer with hot lead, one may safely 

assume that he is an unstable, 

irrational, unsafe, trigger-happ- y 

individual. More importantly, 

however, one must realize that he is an 

exaggerated individual; a stereotype 

taken to ludicrous extremes and placed 

within a normal, "real life as we know 

it" scenario. It 4s Bruno, not the 

residents of Babcock Hall or members 

of the GayLesbian Support Group, 

who is the butt of the joke. 

Why, those incensed by this cartoon 

may ask, should, first, Babcock Hall, 

then, the GL Support Group, bear the 

brunt of Bruno's senseless rampage? 

Well, to begin to understand why they 

did, one needs to fathom the concept of 

stereotypes as used in this particular 

cartoon. First and foremost, Bruno is a 

stereotype an advanced one. He is the 

cartoonist's campus-accessib- le 

expression of the idiotic "Rambo" 

t. WAS Aufctne I 

mentality of the last two years, a 

mentality which, due to its dangerous 

oversimplification of complicated 

problems, needs to be nipped in the 

bud. Obviously, the strip does not 

present a storyline with problems as 

complicated or as serious as the Vict 

Nam which Mr. Stallone imagined 

himself solving turning down a stereo 

is relatively simple work for an 

experienced cop --but it works on the 

same level of stereotyping in order to 

entice the humorous premise from the 

page to the reader. Bruno is a readily 

apparent facsimile of the Rambo 

mentality so that the cartoonist might 

illustrate the absurdity of such a 

character participating in real life. 

Babcock is designated as the recipient 

of this moron's rage because it provides 

the very antithesis of the blockheaded 

violence which Bruno personifies. Let 

us face it, folks, Babcock parties are 

usually not quite as rambunctious as 

Sig or Delt parties. Don't get me 

wrong, some of my best friends are 

Sigs and Delts, but their behavior 

comes closer to rivaling Bruno's than 

anything one might see in Babcock on 

an average visit, and it is their rough 

proximity to Bruno's character 

(stereotypically, of course) that, had 

they been used as the focus of Bruno's 

antics, would have diminished the 

degree to which the cartoonist could 

contrast his stereotypes and achieve his 

intended joke. These images of 

Babcock and Bissman are intended to be 

neither good nor bad. They are being 

discussed simply because they are very 

distinct from one another, and one 

happened to provide a better scenario in 

which the cartoonist could attack the 

lumbering, monosyllabic, Rambo-- t 

state of mind. If, however, the 

residents of Babcock wish to aspire to 

lofty standards of drunken rowdiness 

and rabble-rousin- g so as to avoid being 

equated with the very antithesis of a 

cretin such as Bruno, well, I suppose 

they do have reason to be upset about 

the strip. 

As for Next Week's teaser at the end 

of the strip the same absurdist, 

stereotyping principles apply. The 

cartoonist is not attacking 

homosexuals, he is merely placing this 

putz into another scenario and having a 

little fun with words. The cartoonist

Drug Crisis? 

by Peter Westerman 

For lack of substantive political 

issues, the Reagan Administration has 

created a drug crisis. This crisis was 

created because of the administration's 

inability to deal with social problems 

in America's inner cities. After all, 

what politician would support drug 

use? By blaminng drugs, President 

Reagan has attempted to absolve 

himself of responsibility for the 

ever-increasi- ng number 

of 

disenfranchised peoples subsisting in 

American cities today. It's not the 

fault of government policy that cities 

arc bastions inequality and social 

decay.its drugs. 

As a professor from Cornell 

University pointed out this summer in 

NEWSWEEK, America has always had 

a drug problem but until quite recently 

it was confined to the lower classes in 

Group deserves just as much respect as 

any other organization on campus or in 

society, and he is again illustrating the 

dangers, in a humorous way, that such 

unacceptable mentality can pose to 

legitimate institutions. Furthermore, 

anyone not making the connection 

between Bruno's "Go ahead! Make me 

gay!!" and Eastwood's "Go ahead! 

Make my day!!" not only missed a 

mildly amusing play on words, but 

also squandered a fine opportunity to 

marvel at the wonders of the English 

language, rhyming words in particular. 

This was a rather complicated 

discussion of & very simple cartoon, 

so let us relax a bit, folks. No one on 

this staffs out to condemn anybody; 

we're all pretty good eggs. After all, 

what are those, pieces of pressboard 

doing in front of Lowry, anyway? 

Oh, Security? I think you were 

chosen to tend Bruno simply because 

kids are kids, and, well, it's neat to 

single out law enforcement officers 

because, um . . . because . . . well, 

you, uh . . . well, you enforce the law. 

It's trendy. Kids in the '60s did it. 

You're doing a damn fine job.

the inner cities. Not until drug abuse 

spilled over into the white middle class 

did it become a political issue, a crisis. 

It is . all too easy to allow 

President Reagan to use a so-call- 

ed 

"drug crisis" to destroy legal 

protections of American's civil rights, 

and to absolve himself of 

responsibility for broader social issues 

surrounding drug use in the United 

States. People are driven to drug abuse 

for reasons that both Republicans and 

" 

Democrats alike have failed to 

adequately address. 

On the international front Reagan 

thinks he can stop the production of 

drugs. He ignores the reality that most 

of the countries he has targeted for 

eradication depend on drugs as their 

primary source of income. It's about 

time the government proposed serious 

rehabilitation, education and social 

... 

programs at home to deal with the the 

social origins of drug abuse. The 

American people could benifit more 

from the money being spent at home Z 

rather than in countries that would 

rather we just left them alone. 

The severity of the damage to 

American society caused by drug abuse 

cannot be underestimated, however 

blaming all drug users for all the ills 

that exist in American society is r 

simply a development by politicians 

hungry for substantive political 1 

issues. . 

A month ago, these guys were 

telling us that Pornography was the J 

cause of all or these societal proDiems. 

Which is it? I'm confused. What will 

it be next month. Nothing will ever 

be accomplished by providing simple 

white-wash- es for complex social 

u. 

The broken sentance in Peter 

Westerman's editorial, "Reagan 

and .South Africa" , 912 should read,

entire campus. As such, the Voice 

should display a sensitivity towards 

special interest groups on campus as 

well as the student population as a 

whole. The lack of responsibility 

displayed by the Voice editiorial staff in 

allowing such an item (as the un-com- 

ic 

strip) to run is inexcusable. 

We are very proud of the Babcock 

program and believe that in our unique 

way we provide the campus with a vital 

source of knowledge and information 

about this ever shrinking world in 

which we live. The ridicule and lack of 

respect the "foreign dorm" has received 

in the past is intolerable. As a special 

interest group of the College, we are as 

deserving of the same respect as any 

other group - the Black Students' 

Asssociation, the Jewish Students 

Association, the Women's Resource 

Center, Creek clubs and sections, and 

the GayLesbian Support Group to 

name only a few. It is in extremely 

poor taste for the author to ridicule any 

such group. 

Dear Editor 

I really question your decision to 

allow the Brflno"SaVage comic to be 

printed in the September 12th edition. 

I usually appreciate humor directed at 

making fun of things that are specific 

to the Wooster campus. However, this 

comic strip failed to amuse me. 

Babcock and other program dorms 

continue to fight stereotypes on this 

campus that have been around for 

years. Comments to the effect that a 

majority of physics majors live there 

and have punch at a party is uncalled 

for. I know for a fact that more than 

just physics majors live there and yes,-- : 

Babcock residents do drink beer just 

like the rest of the campus. Why is it 

that someone who chooses to take 

advantage of a special program must be 

made fun of on this campus as if what 

they do is of any less importance? 

Also; on first reading 1 missed the 

frame on the GayLesbian Support 

Group. This frame alone perpetuates 

the homophobic attitude that lives 

strong in American society. Why 

would there be a need to "raid" the 

support group meeting,, as the frame 

suggests? this support group is trying . 

' to raise consciousness of this campus.. 

. Already it fights cultural norms. There 

is no, need for a newspaper of a

The "Bruno Savage" cartoon in 

last week's issue of The Voice aroused 

many negative reactions from various 

campus organizations and from many 

other students as well. It is disgraceful 

to the college that students submit 

such a cartoon and that such a cartoon 

is permitted to be printed in our 

campus newspaper when our college is 

currently trying to fight a long overdue 

battle' aginst stereotypes, .prejudices, 

and discrimination policies here on this

suggestion that future comic strips be 

examined, before being printed in the 

Voice, as to their real message. 

and Security (which is portrayed 100 

wrong in the cartoon). 

The final frame of the cartoon 

even says that the Lesbian Gay 

Support Group, in following last 

week's episode of Babcock Hall, will be 

the' victim of this week's tasteless 

Bruno Savage cartoon. Of course, the , 

frame also insinuates that Security will 

be portrayed in the same disgraceful 

manner. This week's berating of 

campus groups and the preview of next 

week's further attack of at least two 

campus groups, cause us to think that 

the object of this cartoon is to ridicule 

each campus organization or minority 

group, week by week. What other"

is your responsibility as overseer of the 

Wooster Voice to insure the sensitivity 

of your staff members. . In the past 

week's Voice, the .Black . Students' 

groups are on the Bruno Savage 

agenda? Hopefully, the authors of the 

Bruno Savage cartoon and the editors of 

die paper will respond by discontinuing 

such attempts of humor that directly 

violate the College of Wooster's 

antidiscriminatory policies with regard 

to race, creed, nationality, sex, and-sexual 

preference. 

As committee members of the. 

International Student Association in 

support of our organization and others, 

we ask that you screen submissions 

carefully and do not print the 

succedding Bruno Savage cartoon nor 

any other tasteless 'discriminatory ' 

material 

Babcock holds a variety of 

all-campus events during the year. The 

programs, in and of themselves, are 

good entertainment Furthermore, it is 

not necessary to be involved in any of 

the planning for these events to have a 

good time. "We would like to extend 

an open invitation to the editor of the 

Voice and the author of the "comic 

strip" (as well as the entire campus 

community) to explore for themselves 

the Babcock experience. t We are not 

"pill-poppi- ng maggots," nor all 

"physics majors." Bavarian dance 

music and punch are also a 

misrepresentation of our total interests. 

Such slurs can only increase the 

misconceptions clouding what we 

believe is an exceptional program. 

Open Response 

to PaulSavage 

Dear Paul, 

I took the last issue of the Voice 

and I was interested in your article. . 

My attention was attracted by the title 

phrase "Crushing Terrorism." Coming 

from Greece, I am very delicate to 

anything that has to do with terrorism. : 

Our country was repeatedly accused of 

being inexcusably "open" to any 

terrorist. 

So I read the article and remained 

with the impression- - 

that you preach 

unrestricted violence against terrorists at 

-- 

whatever costs necessary. Your 

opinion, radical as it is, was masked 

. behind a wcll-p'- ut scries of nationalistic 

messages that would detract the average 

reader's attention from your' article for 

our reader's benefit; . . . but they sent 

a message to terrorists around the 

world; do not mess with the' United 

States of America! . .". Is it OK for 

terrorists to "mess with" a weaker 

nation; let us say, plant mines in the 

airports, just because-- ' it lacks the 

firepower to fight back? " Since 

that great day in April . -- .". What's so 

great about it, Paull The fact that you 

suprised and defeated'an inferior army? 

-- too-many 

1 am really hesitant to cite 

examples, so I will give up the 

issue of nationalistic cover-u- p and take 

up the pen of the response lb terror. ". 

.. . Terrorist groups and nations who 

support them now know that the 

United States will fight terror with 

terror. . ". But, if it replies with 

terror,- - in what aspect is it better than 

the terrorist group? If America is the 

just and moral nation we would all like 

it to be, then it should fight by other 

more moral means.1 "... If it takes 

military action that would devastate the 

terrorists and their countries, then all 

Americans should support those 

moves. . . ".' It does not help to be a 

trigger-happ- y warmonger, Paul; you 

only give to the people the right .to 

start denouncing:' imperialism. 

Moderate and more humane reactions 

would help more. . . 

In case my position is 

.unknown to the readers, I will .state it 

immediatky: Colonel Ghadafi is far 

from being idol, infact I thing he 

should be neutralized and I supported 

the US. military reaction . . . But I 

can not embrace this spirit of 

unrestricted violence.

most of the honor, all professors 

benefit from an endowed chair. 

Endowment funds are invested, and the 

income is used to pay the talaris of 

faculty members. Asked to comment 

on the chair, Sara Patton, Vice 

President for Developement, said that, " 

This, of course, is an honor for the 

faculty member and also for the 

College because it recognizes that 

Wooster is a strong academic 

institution." In 1977, Wooster's 

endowments were approximately 

$15,000,000 and they are now over 

$55,000,000. 

Durham has been a member of the 

French Department since 1976. She 

earned her bachelors degree in English 

and French from Wellesky College and 

her masters and doctoral degrees from 

The University of Chicago. Durham 

was a lecturer fo French at ,The 

University of Chicago before coming 

to Wooster. She has published a 

monograph L' Art Romanesque de

dozen articles. She is now writing a

Wooster Congress 

During the first month of each

Government Association (SGA) 

conducts elections for a new General 

Assembly. The General Assembly 

(GA) consists of a body of students 

who represent all the residence halls 

and districts on the College of Wooster 

campus. The GA is patterned after the 

United States Congress; members 

discuss,

debate, and vote on a variety of 

issues brought to their attention.

Being slow witted and lacking the

But that day at the DMV, I 

would've loved to grab the buffoon by

I don't care about your insurance 

problems. Now get away from me

for the right situation. If you think 

someone is cutting in line, you say, 

"Hey sh head," instead of "Hey

battle that goes on between the 

homosexual and heterosexual 

communities is just so unoeccesary 

because we're all human. 

Peter. Is there a lot of pressure on 

a student here who's gay? In the 

classroom, in a social setting? 

A: Its really hard sometimes to be 

gay in a class that's about the 

humanities for example. A lot of 

times we are excluded from whole 

discussions and everything is based on 

the heterosexual viewpoint. It doesn't 

happen all the time, but it happens too 

frequently to be overlooked. 

Hetero sexism runs rampant all over the 

place. We are pretty much ignored 

whenever possible. It's like if people 

ignore gay people they don't exist. 

And a lot of people's emotions are 

either stepped on or overlooked. It 

makes it really hard. That's why I find 

it pretty understandable when people 

get upset over something that's scary. 

P: In 1981, The VOICE dedicated a 

whole issue to oppressed groups. 

They spoke of a student whose 

pseudonym was "Ben", who was being 

harassed pretty violently on campus 

because he was gay. Do you still find 

overt harassment on campus? 

A: I think overt harassment exists, 

but not on a dai'y basis. I've 

experienced overt harassment here, in 

my first few months here last year. 

' And there are a number of people who 

I know that have experienced it either 

here or in town. Ii's hard to be under 

control! all of the time. I don't think 

that one person can represent a whole 

group. I don't think it's fair that one 

person should represent the whole 

minority because its hard to be rational 

when there are people constantly at 

you for being different. It makes it 

VOICE 

- . SEPTEMBER 

very difficult to be in control when 

your dealing with a very emotional 

situation. 

P: Do you find more subtle forms 

of harassment? 

A: The more subtle forms of 

harassment you run into on a more 

daily basis. It might not even be 

personal harassment, because 

sometimes youll just hear people use 

words like "fag" or "dike" or "queer" 

just throwing words like that around. 

For me "fag" is on the same level as 

"nigger", only it's more socially 

acceptable. Things like that make us 

look bad. They make us feel bad, too. 

Alot of times its really hard for us to 

be sure of ourselves because we're 

getting messages since we were very 

little that we're different, we're bad. 

People who support gay people also 

get harassed because its like being 

guilty by association. If you're friends 

with someone who's gay people wTil 

either assume that you're gay or 

something like that Its almost like . 

its just as bad to be supportive. 

P: You spoke a lot about diversity 

and stigmas. Is a lot of what you 

encounter in your group people trying 

to assert themselves over this stigma 

they have? 

A: We have to. contend with a lot 

of stereotypes and that's not saying that 

stereotypes are bad or wrong, but 

thev're abused. People will base their 

entire judgment on a stereotype when 

they don't know the individual. I 

found that in the gay community on 

campus here and in communities in 

other places most of the gay people 

that I've talked to are really accepting 

of various forms of lifestyles and that 

the community as a whole is a very 

diverse group they accept people who 

are heterosexuals. They accept people 

who are undecided, they accept people

who have chosen the gay lifestyle. We 

are kind of advocates for all oppressed 

groups. Especially 

right now because we are one of the 

more oppressed groups. You cant just 

stick up for one oppressed group when 

there are others that are equally or 

similarly oppressed. If all the opressed 

groups banded together we would be in 

the majority. 

P: Two questions. Do feel that 

you are in an environment where you 

can be yourself, and do you think the 

campus would accept your group if it 

was more outspoken? 

A: I dont think we're exactly 

sure how the campus would accept us if 

we were more vocal because the group 

is very diverse in its political views-because 

of the instances of harrassment 

we have all felt or been victims of. It 

makes it kind of scary to even think 

about being vocal. Being vocal could 

be as simple as bringing it up 

hypothetical in class. It's scary to 

bring it up in class because of what 

happens if someone finds out that the 

person in class was gay or they'll think 

they were gay. It could just really -open 

a very big, terrible pandora's box. 

Just because its something that is so 

totally, socially unacceptable right 

now. Even though we know we have 

each other's support and kindness, 

sometimes that's not enough because of

near 

the cold feeling we get from the 

campus, to be able to stand up for 

ourselves or each other. Even in a 

classroom situation which is supposed 

to be safe, sometimes it's not, because 

what goes on in the classroom gets 

talked about outside the classroom. I 

wish there was some constructive way 

situations inside the classroom could 

be talked about outside the classroom 

and have it be a learning experience. 

But, people joke about what scares 

them. Sometimes that turns into 

abusive humor, like the cartoon. 

P: Do you find the faculty to be 

fair and accepting of the gay 

community? 

A: Well, as far as I know, in 

theory the faculty is accepting of 

homosexuality. Individually they deal 

with it in different ways. Some will 

talk about it in the classroom and 

bring it up for discussion which makes 

it safe, or safer for the students to be 

able to talk about because the 

professor brought it up. The professor 

is supposed to be like a referee in the 

dialogue. Other professors steer really 

clear of it and that makes it difficult for 

people who are afraid to talk about it, 

because you hear the professor talking 

about something closely related to it in, 

like, literature courses or sociology; 

things that deal with human 

interaction, portrayals of human

interactions and if you see something 

thats very obviously related to 

homosexuality you cant bring it up. 

Its very frustrating. All to often 

people's actions have to be guided by 

their fears. The fears of. the 

consequences of expressing themselves. . 

I think in general the faculty is fairly 

liberal. But there are always cases 

where in classrooms it's completely 

overlooked. 

P: A lot of what you've said has 

to do very generally with people's 

stereotypes and attitudes. When you 

look at Wooster and you think of ways 

that communication here could be 

improved, what comes to mind? 

A: A lot of people have never 

talked to a gay person before about 

being gay or their personal experiences

questions to come to a gay support .

Women's Field Hockey 

By Bob Murphy 

The College of Wooster women's 

field hockey team continued to play 

well this last week as they came out 

with a 1- -1 record against two NCAC 

competitors, Denison and Kenyon, 

respectively. This puts their overall 

season record at 2--1. This weekend, the 

Scots will travel to Kutztown, 

Pennsylvania to take part in a 

tournament that will also feature 

Kutztown, Salem State of 

Massachusetts, and Frostburg College 

of Maryland. 

The Big Red of Denison has 

traditionally had a strong field hockey . 

team, and this year's group is no 

exception. However, after being 

defeated last season by the Scots, the 

Red now have learned to treat Wooster 

with considerable respect. Coach Sheila 

Noonan pointed out that this was the 

first year in which the Scots 

approached the game with an aggressive 

attitude and without feeling 

intimidated. 

On Saturday, September 13 the 

Scots traveled to Granville, where 

coach Noonan says she felt they played 

very well. Unfortunately, Denison 

scored two successive goals late in the 

first half, which Wooster was never 

able to match; thus the game was lost 

0--2. Beth Cooke and Betsy Seyler were 

the scorers for Denison. Scotgoal 

keeper Sara Heath was kept busy in the 

first half as Denison knocked a total of 

SPORTS 

11 shots her way, seven from the 

inside circle. 

In the second half, it was Wooster 

that dominated on offense. 

Unfortunately, repeated shots by 

captains Lisa Blackadar and Kate 

Koehler, as well as junior Amy 

Johnson failed to get inside the goal. If 

nothing else, the Scots showed a team 

aggressiveness that had been missing in 

the first half. 

The Scots next game was on 

Tuesday the 16th, against the ladies of 

Kenyon, in the bustling community of 

Gambier, Ohio. There the Scots were 

all over the statistics sheet, if not the 

scoreboard. Wooster sent 16 shots 

toward the goal in the first half, but 

none managed to make it in. Kenyon 

managed to make only two shots 

during the first half, though one by 

Tracy Hunter got past to put the socre 

at 0-- 1 at the end of the half. 

The second half saw the Scots once 

again all over Kenyon. 

Fortunately, Koehler vas able to 

score two goals from assists by Amy 

Johnson at the IS and 25 minute marks 

in the half, giving Wooster the victory. 

The Kenyon game brought, to 

attention the fact that the Scots have 

not been as effective at scoring from 

the inside circle as they are going to 

need to be to defeat some of the

Volleyball Team in Transition 

by Craig Lombardi 

- the Fighting Scots women's 

volleyball team will have their work 

cut out for mem in 1986. They lost 

' their entire starting line-u- p ' to 

graduation, they have a first year coach 

in Pam Smith and they lack depth 

. with only three freshmen on the team. 

Even after all of the above, Coach 

Shith remains optimistic. "We have a 

young team, the 86 season will be a 

rebuilding year." 

The Scotties are off to a slow start 

with a 1-- 10 record , 0-- 1 in conference 

play. Seeing that the team possesses 

not one senior. Coach Smith will turn 

to leadership from co-capta- 

ins Tracey 

Foreman and Mary Hueske, both' 

juniors. Other players that Coach 

, Smith has been impressed by are Dawn 

Ljghtel (Jr.), Julie Gillmor (So.) and 

Krista Randall (Fr). Coach Smith and 

her assistant Tammy Allen look for 

this season to be a very good .learning 

experience for some of the younger 

players. 

The women's volleyball team will 

travel to Hope College for the Greater 

Lakes College Association tourney 

19-2- September 0. On the 23rd they 

will travel to Otterbein College for a

with Walsh and Otterbein.

Melanie Headley and Liz Walsh; 

Sopohomores, Michelle Britain, Sally 

Closer, Kathy Klein; Freshmen, Tracy 

Beckett and Stacey Kelly. 

The Scotties look young and 

inexperienced, but should provide 

plenty of excitement for now and years 

to come. When asked how Coach 

Smith felt about the upcoming season 

she exclaimed, "I'm excited to work 

- with the women's varsity and I'm very 

optimisitic for the future!"

bcots Lose to OAC Football Powerhouse 

by Chris Shilts 

The College of Wooster football 

team squared off last Saturday against 

Mount Union who last year was ranked 

5th nationaly in the final Division III 

poll. The Scots showed signs of life 

which gave confidence to players and 

coaches for a successful season. 

However, before that can happen it 

must eliminate the big play and play 

two strong halves back-to-bac- k. 

Wooster Lost 38-- 7 in a game which 

should not have appeared that lopsided. 

On the Scots first possession junior 

fullback Roy Reese scampered for a 

nine yard gain, but what appeared to be 

a simple release of the football at the 

end of the play was ruled a fumble and 

the defense took the field with their 

backs to the wall. Mount's Russ 

Kring capitalized on this mistake with 

a three yard run with 11:37 still left to 

play in the first quarter. 

In the second quarter, the Scot 

offense found themselves with 

tremendous field position after a strong 

defensive stand and a. short .Mount 

punt. Runs by Reese and passes from 

Don Mathews to Tony Harris and John 

Papp set up John Bulklev's 

one-yard 

touchdown plunge.The game was tied, 

and the electricity from the Scot 

sidelines and the stands had everyone 

believing that Wooster could defeat the 

mighty Purple Raiders. 

With five minutes remaining in the 

half, Kring's number was called again 

and he bounced off would be tacklers en 

route to a 41 yard run. Mount would 

never see their lead disappear again. 

Wooster's offense put together a 

strong effort to tie the game on their 

first possesion of the half, highlighted 

by a 19 yard gain on a shovel pass 

from Mathews to Tom Kincaid. The 

drive got as far as Mount's 22 yard line 

but Mathews was sacked - great 

scoring opportunity wiped out. From 

there on it was all Mount Union. The 

offense couldn't muster anymore 

magic, and the defense started giving 

up big plays- - Kring again on a 69 yard 

run, and a pass from Gindlesberger to 

Boddy worth 54 yards. 

Before the day was over, Mount 

scored another touchdown and a field 

goal and eventually won 

38-- 7. 

Wooster's top offensive players were 

Mathews, who completed 13 of 20 

passes for 132 yards, and Tony Harris 

who caught 5 passes for 48 yards. 

Reese was Wooster's top ground gainer 

! with 37 yards on 10 carries. 

I Brock Jones led the defense with 

' 

eight tackles, seven solo. Terry Carter 

was second with seven rackles, four 

solo. - - 

Wooster proved in the first half that 

it could play with one of the nations 

best, despite the fact that things fell 

apart in the second half. As depicted 

EiJflCLK 

by head coach Bob Tucker and 

co-ordina- defensive tor Tim Pettorini, 

the Scots are just one man away, 

offensivly and defensively, from being 

one of the top teams in the NCAC 

Wooster opens their NCAC schedule 

with Kenyon this Saturday at home. 

The teams are pretty much evenly 

matched, but Kenyon has beaten 

Wooster the last four years, including . 

last year, 9-- 0. If the Scots come onto : 

the field with the same emmotion and 

intensity that they had at the start of 

the Mount Union game, Kenyon could 

.be in for a long day. '

Column-Chri- s Shilts 

I went to a prep school outside 

Detroit called Cranbrook. At this 

school there use to be a young teacher 

named Andy Mulligan, a graduate of 

Denison University. Mulligan taught 

and coached at Cranbrook's middle 

school and resided in a small apartment 

in the freshman dormitory. His 

interior decorations consisted of 

pictures, articles and other Denison " 

memoranda of Mulligan's football 

career there. 

In 1982 Mulligan was first team. 

all OAC at defensive tackle. Despite 

his boyish, bearded face, his large size 

resembles that of an ex-footb- 

all player 

in excellent shape. He rarely touched a 

weight,"I was so much bigger than 

most people that I didn't see the use," 

he said , but also added,"! kind of wish 1 

had, though." He also hated to run. 

He recalls what he used to tell his 

coach, Keith Piper.'Hey, I'm either 

gonna make the tackle here,"pointing 

with his left hand at a 45 degree 

angle,"or here,"pointing similarity 

with his right,"so why do I have to do 

all this running crap for?" 

Mulligan's students, knowing he 

had been a college star, used to ask, "did 

you ever play Michiganr or "did you 

ever play in the Rose Bowl? When 

Mulligan answered "no" to both, his 

students assumed in a childlike 

awareness that '."Well, you couldn't 

have been that good." "All the pride 

that I had in me was shot down," 

Mulligan recalled with a sheepish grin. 

Mulligan was a campus partier and 

he carried this through into the life as a 

teacher. One time I returned home in 

time to catch the end of a faculty party 

that my father was throwing. 

Mulligan rested merrily against the keg 

and insisted that me and my friend

joking, of course. He was smarter 

than that; he loved to play football too 

much. 

His merriment was sidelined for 

awhile when to everyone's surprise he 

collapsed playing a pick-u-p basketball 

game. He had had a seizure. Mulligan 

for the first time had to shrug off his 

college childness. He took pride in his 

work and coaching young kids. His 

athletic memories became just that -memories. 

But he remained active as a 

coach and a new joy overwhlemed 

him - taking pride in watching his 

kids succeed. 

"Mugsy, I'm going to write my first 

article on you," I said, not sure why, 

when I visited him last May. 

"What? Why me? I went to 

Denison." 

"Yeah, I'm aware of that. I just 

figured that..." Mulligan's laughter 

interrupted me. 

Yes, why Andy Mulling? who cares? 

He could have been anyone. Perhaps 

that's it. - He's a man with simple 

dreams who succeeded in what he loved 

to do. Mulligan could have been

But he didn't play football for anyone

coaches because that's the atmosphere

Cleveland Sports Scene Women's Cross Country 

byPatSchmitz 

As is always the case throughout 

the first semester, the fortunes of the 

Cleveland Browns dominate the 

Cleveland sports scene. Last Sunday, 

the Browns won their first game of the-seaso-n, defeating the Houston Oilers 

23-2- 0. It would be more accurate to 

say that the Oilers defeated themselves, 

since they committed a total of seven 

turnovers. Hanford Dixon, Chris 

Rockins, and Clay Matthews all 

intercepted Warren Moon's errant 

launches for Cleveland. The Browns 

needed all the help that they could get 

for an anemic offense which was led 

by an 11 of 26 for ISO yards in 

passing performance for Bemie Kosar. 

The saving grace of the afternoon was 

the bomb, which Kosar used effectively 

on two occasions fo'r completions of 

50 and 56 yards to the 

second-year 

receiver Reggie Langhorne. 

Houston scored a touchdown on 

their opening possession,- - -- 

and a Matt 

Bahr field goal late in the second quarter 

was the only other tally of the first 

half. Bahr added two more field goals 

in the third quarter to give the Browns 

a 9--7 lead. The Oilers returned the 

favor with a pair of their own 

3--po inters to take a 13-- 9 advantage 

into the fourth quarter. That's when 

Kosar found Langhorne for the 56 yard 

-- touchdown pass to regain the lead. 

Langhorne's outstanding performance 

has led me to predict that he will be a 

starter and Cleveland's leading receiver 

this season. Houston fumbled the 

ensuing kickoff, and the Browns 

quickly capitalized on the error with an 

Earnest Byner touchdown plunge to 

take a 23-1- 3 lead. A late Moon 

touchdown strike served only to make 

the game a bit closer. 

The Browns were without the 

services of safety Al Gross, who is on 

injured reserve with torn knee 

ligaments. Former Philadelphia starter 

and OSU graduate Ray Ellis was 

signed to replace Gross last week.tThe1 

Browns were also without the services 

of All-pr- o running back Kevin Mack 

against Houston. Because of Mack's 

injury, Cleveland re-sign- 

ed fullback 

Johnny Davis and released offensive 

lineman Bill Contz. It was hoped that 

Mack would be ready for yesterday's 

game against the Cincinnati Bengals, 

which was played after the printing 

deadline. 

The Cleveland Indians, now the 

"other" act in the area, are finishing the 

1986 season against the teams of the 

Western Division. The Tribe has 

played well against the West, and 

iroimi 

cmsT 

Tannine 

cc:rmni:cE 

hope to use a strong finish to pass the 

Detroit Tigers and move into fourth 

place. Currently with a record of 

72-7- 1, the Indians have laid the 

foundation of success this season, but 

General Manager Joe Klein has stated 

that he will seek to improve the team's 

weaknesses during the 

off-seaso- n. 

Klein refuse to discount the possibility 

of trading either Brook Jacoby, Pat 

Tabler, or fan-favor- ite Brett Bultler to 

get help at catcher and in the bullpen. 

Rookie Dave Clark will provide 

left-hand- ed hitting 

off the bench, and it 

is hoped that minor-league- rs like Curt 

Wardele ( 7-- 9, 4.15 ), John Farrell ( 

9-1- 0, 3.15 ), or "Luis Encarnacion ( 

S-- S) might also help the Tribe in '87. 

Look for a major shake-u- p this winter, 

with trades for veteran catching and 

relievers likely. 

As mentioned in this column last 

week, the Cleveland Cavs still havent 

signed their draft choices. The 

commercial press is finally becoming 

alarmed by this, and have parroted my 

concern. Good for them! The Cavs 

should be pressured into reaching quick 

agreemenu with Daugherty, Harper, 

Price and Newman at this point As a 

sidenote, the Cavs have decided not to 

offer contracts to veterans Ron Brewer, 

Eddie Johnson, Ben McDonald, and 

Lonnie Shelton this season. They 

have retained the rights to negotiate 

with forwards Edgar Jones and Phil 

Hubbard, and guards Dirk Minniefield 

and World B. Free, however. 

Hopefully by the next time I sit down 

at my typewriter, 111 be able to report 

the signing! of some of the veterans 

and rookies.

opponents have "scored" was when a ' 

Wooster player accidentafy knocked the

" To go with the team's high
