I U of I signs joint venture with Indiana Univemitv to dive for Columbus’ ships . Ir, d The University of Indianapolis and Indiana University have signed an agree- ment with the government of the Dominican Republic in which the two universities gained exclusive rights to search two areas off the Dominican coast thought to be the underwater grave of Christopher Colum- busera vessels. President Benjamin Lantz signed the tweyear research contract, which gives the two universities the right to excavate finds, then duplicate and exhibit the materials. The project is being funded by university, private and Dominican monies, Lantz said. He estimated the cost of the project at $225,000. Any artifacts found would be dis- played at the University of Indianapolis in a miniexhibit. The city’s Children’s Mu- seum, which is already home to numerous 17th- and 18thcenturyartifacts, would even- tually show the treasures in a major exhibit. The Dominican Republic would retain ownership rights. Ships used by the crews of Christopher Columbus in the early 1490s were sunk by back-teback hurricanes. Eight suchwooden caravels are thought to be preserved in the rich sediment off the north coast of the Dominican Republic, specifically in the Bay of Santa Isabela and south of Saona Island. None of the sunken Columbus vessels has been recovered to date. The diving project began last summer, with about 20 divers working at a time. Others involved in the project include re- searchers, anthropologists, biologists, lin- guists, and historians. Crimson & Grey Day brings Olympian Hayes Jones, special honors to Greyhound greats Hayes W Jones Tom Zupancic Obmpic track star I-Person Award winner Hayes W. Jones, winner of the 1964 1 Olympic Gold Medal for the 110-meter hurdles and bronze medalist for the same event in 1960, was the featured speaker at I the Crimson 8c Grey Day luncheon. Crimson & Grey Day is an annual event honoring all letterwinners. After the luncheon, participants watched the Hounds beat St. Joseph’s College in football, then headed to a postgame barbecue. Tom Zupancic ’78, a football and wrestling standout during the seventies and now strength and conditioning coach for the Indianapolis Colts, received the coveted “I” award for community service. The award is given annually to an outstanding alum who has served the community and contributed to U of I athletics. Three former Greyhoundathleteswere inducted into the 1993 Hall of Fame: the late Dave DeJernett’35, who played basketball; Dave Shaw’52, former football player and U of I coach; and Sue Wdey ’75, who was a standout in field hockey, volleyball, basketball, softball, and tennis, and today is the U of I women’s softball coach. A businessman active in community affairs in his native city of Pontiac and a longtime advocate for youth, Jones de nated his gold medal to the city in the hope that it would inspire youth to achieve their dreams. “When I stood facing the American flag and heard the Star Spangled Banner played in honor of my country, I knew I could never keep my gold medal,” he said. “My mind flashed back to my hometown of Pontiac, and to all the opportunities my parents had encouraged me to take advan- tage of while I was growing up.” He has been named to the Pontiac Central Hall of Fame, Michigan Hall of Fame, and Helms Athletic Hall of Fame in Los Angeles. In 1968 Jones accepted Mayor John V. Lindsay’s appointment as New York City’s first recreation commissioner. In 1970 he became assistant to the senior vice president for marketing of American Airlines, a corporation he served for 18 years in vari- ous management positions. He also has developed programs and served as community liaison between the corporate world and black and Hispanic consumers.
