Cupola Costs Create SA Debt
Just when we thought we'd heard all of
the bad news we could about Cupolas and
the state of North Park finances, terrible
rumors have been circulating around
campus about both. The unfortunate truth
is that these rumors have firm foundations
in fact.
The final bills from Josten's, the com-pany
which prints our yearbooks, have
come in for the 1982-83 and 1983-84 Cupolas
and the amount adds up to about $17,000.
The problem is that only $2,000 has been left
of previous Cupola money to pay these bills,
so the present Cupola and the Student
Association are now awash in $15,000 of red
ink.
About $2,000 of the blame can be at-tributed
to the 1983-84 Cupola, under co-editors
Tim Parker, Chris Marks and Pam
Dahlstrom. This figure was easy to arrive
at because their Business Manager, Tom
Colander, has done a good job at keeping
organized financial records. It was a
simple matter to track where the 1983-84
Cupola's money was spent and decide why
they went over their budget, too. The ad-ditional
cost incurred from the default of
Ricci Photography, which the co-editors
had hired to do senior pictures, candids,
and other photo work, was at least $1,000.
Most of the rest of the 1983-84 deficit was
attributed by co-editor Tim Parker to
unanticipated printing costs from Josten's.
In the case of the 1983-84 Cupola the
research job was easy.
Definitive answers from the 1982-83
Cupola, on the other hand, have been im-possible
to find. The records left by editor
Bruce Pimentel and Business Manager
Mark Fechner were, according to Colan-der,
a disorganized mess when he found
them, and recent ivestigation of them by
the president editor Sandi Nelson and S.A.
President Tom Jones have confirmed this.
Bills from 1982-83 have been mostly lost and
the ledgers kept from that period are in-correct
and indecipherable.
Because of this situation it is impossible
to determine where the 1982-83 Cupola
budget of $16,400 and its $2,000-or-so in
advertising earnings went for the most
part. We do know that $2,000 in late fees
from Josten's accounts for some red ink
and that the final bill from Josten's was
about $6,000 over the S.A. Cupola budget,
but to accurately state where financial
irresponsibility took place or even how
much the 1982-83 Cupola's deficit amounts
to is impossible. The possibility of the 1982-
83 Cupola having assumed debts from
previous Cupolas was suggested by both
Parker and Nelson, which complicates
things even further.
Who was responsible for the poor records
left by the 1982-83 Cupola? The consensus of
Pimentel, Parker, Nelson, and Colander is
that the business manager is responsible
for keeping the books, so with that, Fechner
seems to bear most of the blame. But
Pimentel is responsible also because of the
lateness of his yearbook. Since many of the
bills from Josten's come only when the
finished copies are delivered, many of
Pimentel's expenditures as editor were not
definitely known until almost two years
after the money had been committed.
Responsibility can be laid on the two men
together for what was evidently poor
communication between them. Pimentel
and everyone else contacted who was in-volved
with the 1982-83 Cupola attests to
this problem.
Now you know about as much about the
deficits as everyone else. We can grouse
about how it may have been incurred, that
Pimentel's cover was too fancy, etc., but it
won't do any good. The fact remains that
the bills need to be paid and the deficit
retired somehow. The S.A. and the present
Cupola staff are working on this problem.
The bill for the 1983-84 Cupola has been
paid with the $2,000 left over from last year
and out of the present Cupola budget. The
same will soon be done for the 1982-83. That
will leave the 1984-85 budget with about
$3,000 including ad money, which will not
begin to pay its own final bill next fall from
Josten's, when Nelson expects her Cupola
to be finished. The money to pay for that
bill will come from the $10 raise in student
activities fees instituted earlier this year.
The S.A. will pay Josten's in full next fall
for the 1984-85 Cupola, and the 1985-86
Cupola will be free of any previous debt.
But there are more problems. Parker and
Nelson maintain that the Cupola at this
point is seriously underbudgeted. The basic
no-frills printing costs as well as
distribution are supposed to be paid out of
the S.A.'s $16,400 which the Cupola has
received each year, but Nelson points out
that the basic printing costs alone this year
will be over $17,000. She is confident that
potential deficit will be small, but with
annually rising costs for printing and
materials the Cupola, starting next year, is
going to need at least $20,000 from the S.A.
to be reasonably able to pay its bills.
The S.A. has also recognized this
problem, but there is presently no money
available to raise the Cupola budget, let
alone raise the budgets of other S.A. in-stitutions
like the College News and the
Standing Committees, which will need
financial boosts pretty soon, too. The S.A.
has not decided yet where the additional
money will come from. A proposal by
Senators Blake Magnuson and Peter A.
Nelson to ask the Administration and Board
of Directors for another $10-a-year increase
in student fees is being discussed, but no
one is secure about how two fee increases in
the same year will go over with the Student
Association as a whole. Nothing else
specific has been discussed in the Senate.
While money supply problems have been
wrangled over, there have been some
reforms in the Cupola's organization and
talk of more to come. Pimentel was paid his
salary as editor during his year here and
none of it on completion. Now a $700 during-
$300 completion ratio exists. Treasurer
Brad Halverson thinks this should be a $600-
$400 ratio. The purpose of this is to give an
editor an incentive to finish the yearbook on
time and not cause financial and
distribution problems to future yearbooks,
as did Pimentel's and to a much lesser
extent, Parker's, Mark's, and Dahlstrom's.
There is presently a measure before the
College Cabinet to consider having the
editor work for academic credit as well as a
salary. The reasoning behind this is that the
prospect of failing grades might be a better
club to hold over an editor than simply
withholding part of his salary. Nelson
endorses an idea of working for credit and a
salary, but as of yet no one is sure how it
will be put into effect.
With her own yearbook, Nelson has tried
to keep a better financial rein on the Cupola
by asking for itemized bills from Josten's
whenever she sends in finished pages. The
billing from Josten's in the past consisted of
two installment bills for the base cost
during the year and a final third bill upon
the book's completion which covers the rest
of the base cost and the extra printing
charges, such as for extra color. Nelson
wants periodic itemized billing to be able to
keep better track of those extras, but as of
yet Josten's has not complied.
Colander has done well with organizing
financial records by using a computer to
organize client lists for advertising revenue
and keeping bills and ledgers in an
organized filing system. This will help
future Business Managers to do their jobs,
too.
There has also been a general tendency
towards closer working relationships
between the S.A. and the Cupola. Nelson,
S.A. Treasurer Brad Halverson and former
S.A. President Jon Ramgren have con-sulted
with each other much more than has
been the practice in previous years.
Present S.A. President Tom Jones seems to
be continuing it upon taking over
Ramgren's office.
The Cupola debt problem has done a lot of
financial damage to the S.A. and there
appears to be no other way to repair it than
to let future tuition-paying students pay for
this problem, as well, which may not please
them much. But there are some positive
results coming out of dealing with the
problem. The Cupola is more organized
than it has been, and there are more people
in the S. A. who are concerned with seeing
that it is run properly. The hope is that in
future years the Cupola will be what it
ought to be: an organization with an
established system that is financially self-sufficient.
The practice of Cupolas being
finished late and passing on debts to future
years is being ended as quickly as possible,
because otherwise the whole idea of having
yearbooks might not be considered worth
the time, the money, or the headache.
Sixth Floor Carlson Under Water
by Jill Taylor
Presently, the sixth floor of Carlson
Tower is a mess. There has been excessive
water leakage for the past several months
and it has taken quite awhile for adequate
repairs to be made.
For years, faculty have pleaded for
something to be done but apparently the
funds were never available. Various
temporary repairs have been made, but so
far all have been unsuccessful.
The faculty of the Education and Social
Sciences departments, whose offices are on
the sixth floor, have been inconvenienced
by the leakage. Ceilings are damaged,
buckets are on the floors to catch water,
plastic tarps are covering the furniture,
and damage has been done to important
papers. The outer wall-side offices have
experienced the worst of the water
damage.
During a major wind and rain storm
which occurred a few weeks ago, extensive
damage was done to the roof. A large
ventilator shaft toppled and several severe
gashes resulted in a major inflow of water.
Dr. Chuck Wiberg, a professor who has
had problems because of the leakage, sent
a memorandum to the president explaining
the situation.
After the windstorm, the roof was sup-posedly
repaired but it still leaked! The
problem may be from deteriorating mortar
joints in the brickwork. Experiments were
done with water-blasting to detect whether
or not this was the cause of continued
leaking.
The cause is still yet to be detected but
efforts are being made to successfully
accomplish the task of repairing Carlson
roof. The contract with A.B. LARSON
roofing company has been cancelled and,
with Cliff Nelson acting as consultant with
Dex International, research is being done
to find a competent roofing company.
Don Boyd, new director at the physical
plant, understands the concerns and
exasperations of the sixth floor faculty and
says that the work should be successfully
completed over the summer.

Women Wax Woeful Over
Reverse Discrimination
A week and a half ago, the Center for Scandinavian Studies hosted visiting educational cor-respondent
Karin Hafstad at a lunch in her honor. Ms. Hafstad, who was for many years a
member of the Norwegian Parliament and a delegate to the council of Europe, gave a lecture
entitled "Women in Norwegian Life and Politics."
The lecture covered many aspects of international politics including the importance of the
United Nations as a world unifying factor. The speaker was bright, energetic, and well-versed
in world economic affairs, responding to questions and comments with great enthusiasm.
Hafstad spoke out for the right of women to hold positions traditionally controlled by men.
giving examples of her own experience in the Norwegian Parliament. She called out for the
dissolution of the differentiation between men and women.
But something was terribly wrong. Here she was asking for equal opportunity and yet the
room was occupied solely by women. It had been announced a week earlier that only women
were welcome at the lecture, men being allowed only if they wished to dress in drag.
Now maybe it's just me, but doesn't that strengthen the differentiation between men and
women instead of act as a unifying factor? I knew several men on campus, many with a strong
interest in international affairs, who would not only have benefited from the lecture, but
would have greatly added to the discussion. But they were discouraged from going. I smell a
rat of reverse discrimination.
Last week I did some calling for the Annual FundPhonathon and I happened to reach a cou-ple
who refused to give a cent to North Park because of the way women were treated here
when they attended the school.
They felt that twenty years ago, when they were students, women were treated as subor-dinate
creatures, trained only to be caring wifes and mothers. I assured them that things have
changed over the years and that as far as I felt there was no discrimination between the sexes,
and that equal opportunity abounds.
But maybe that's not so true after all. By what happened at the Hafstad lecture it seems
there may be a few people who still assume that to gain equal opportunity among the sexes,
some faction needs to be handicapped.
Equal opportunity means being allowed to share your talents with the rest of the world.
without regarrl to sex , race or even religious preference. People who are evidently gifted don't
need to depend on a quota for a good job. It seems to me that if the thin line between -men and
women isn't stressed, the differentiation will eventually dissolve.
Three cheers for Boy George and the generation of the gender-blenders.
It's Our Turn Now
"He who laughs last, laughs best." If that
old adage holds any truth, then I'm sure
that the financial wizards at the ad-ministration
building are yukking it up. We
students were so self-righteous in the fall
and early winter. "How could the ad-ministration
be so careless?" we
demanded. "After all, we pay our bills each
term, on time, generally," we reminded
them. "Sophomore accounting majors
could keep better books if they had to," we
taunted. Well, it's four months later and the
SA is left with $15,000 worth of egg on its
face.
Actually, I suppose that this year's
Senate will be able to find a series of ways
to pass the blame around until it will
disappear. That's okay as far as I'm con-cerned
because the guilty factions must
know who they are anyway. The problem is
that they cannot hocus-pocus away the
$15,000. That money has to be paid.
We could ask the administration for the
money like a kid asking dad for an advance
on his allowance to pay for the neighbor's
broken window, but alas, papa's pockets
are empty. Besides, cool and responsible
heads have prevailed. We got ourselves into
this mess and we will try to get ourselves
out.
The most reasonable idea on the table is
to relieve the debt by allocating the money
raised by the $10 per student increase in
activity fee. The problem with this idea is
that it takes away the available capital for
committees and publications' budgets that
the increase was meant for. Thus, the
proposal from B. Magnuson and P. Nelson:
raise of another $10. This seems like we
may want to have our cake and eat it
too.Their argument says something like
what will 10 more dollars matter when a
student is already paying $8,000. The
problem is that the $8,000 got there by
adding just $10 here and there. If the ad-ministration
follows that reasoning, they
could increase fees by only $10 ad in-finitum,
perhaps they have.
What is a more sensible argument is that
the student is the one who will benefit from
the increase, and by making it larger
immediately not in the long run. The
student, however, complains (and fairly, "I
hardly get anything now for my money,
why would a 25 percent increase make it
better when it just gets squandered?")
Well, the Senate can only produce if it has
the means to do so, but they can't prove it
until it has those means. A vicious cycle so
we go on trust.
Trust. That is what got us in all this
financial mess in the first place. When the
nominating committee nominates editors
and business managers it is because they
have examined the candidates. The Senate
trusts the committee and what's more, they
entrust the nominees with the command of
a large budget and the responsibility of
producing a competent publication. That
trust must be maintained and respon-sibilities
upheld.
At least some lessons have been learned.
Unfortunately they have been learned by a
Senate that has been responsible in its
duties and appointments. Hopefully this
will leave a legacy of the need for
responsibility and communication. But
alas, the cycle may continue as classes
graduate and memories fade. To future
Senates (who will never read this probably)
I will give the haunting old advice, "Those
who choose to ignore the past, are doomed
to repeat it."

Competency "B"
Clarification
Since the action taken by the faculty on
March 25, some students have gained the
impression that the Writing Competence
"B" requirement is eliminated right now.
That is not true. The motion passed by the
faculty clearly specified an effective date
of Fall, 1985. The "B" requirement remains
in effect for all students presently in the
college, along with the deadlines specified
in the catalog. Undoubtedly, some present
students will still be completing the
requirement next year. Students entering
next fall will, however, not be expected to
meet the Writing "B" requirement.
In stressing and enforcing the Fall, 1985,
effective date, we are not merely being
legalistic. Though details have not been
worked out, we anticipate that, beginning
next fall, the skills now tested through the
Writing "B" paper will be incorporated into
a modified and expanded Writing "A"
exam, and, possibly, in a reinstituted
English "departmental paper." Since
present students have taken the old Writing
"A" exam. and have written no English
departmental paper, they must continue to
be held accountable through the present
Writing "B" requirement. The skills in-volved
are vital and must be demonstrated.
All students should therefore take care of
this matter, as in the past, as speedily as
possible.
The Reading and Mathematics com-petencies
will continue to operate as at
present.
Sincerely,
Chuck Wiberg

Spring
Event
Scheduled
Spring Event 1985- "A Fantastic
Weekend"- will be held Thursday, May 9
through Sunday, May 12.
The purpose of this weekend, which is
held annually on North Park Campus, is to
celebrate spring. This year, the Spring
Event Committee is looking forward to the
participation of faculty staff and ad-ministration
as well as students to create a
greater sense of unity on campus.
Some highlights of the weekend include
theme dinners on Friday and Saturday, an
ice cream social on Friday night, a picnic
and carnival on Saturday, "The Fan-tastiks"
Thursday-Saturday night and the
infamous Boat Dance on Saturday night.
This weekend promises to be a fun and
exciting time on campus-plan ahead and
mark your calendars!
Ohlson House
Open House
The women of Ohlson House, in order to
show off their remodeled floor lounges, are
hosting an Open House Tuesday, April 30,
from 3:30-5:00 p.m.
With the financial help of Cliff Jackson
and Irving Erickson, walls were removed,
ceilings were lowered, and new electricity,
furniture, and carpeting were installed.
The Ohlson House Board spent long hours
working on this project, and would like to
display the fruits of their labor by inviting
and highly encouraging the entire college
community to attend the open house.
Refreshments will be served, so please
come and share the beautiful im-provements
that have been made.
"The Fantastiks" Chosen for
Spring Event Musical
Spring Event is soon to be upon us and a
guaranteed highlight of "A Fantastic
Weekend" will be "The Fantastiks". As the
musical describes itself in the opening
monologue, "This is a play about a boy, a
girl, two fathers and a wall." This
generalization of the musical is the only
information an interested audience
member needs.
Directing "The Fantasticks" is Doy
Athnos, assisted by Tim Parker. The
musical director is Greg Athnos and ac-companying
the cast is John Boutcher. The
talented cast consists of Kristin Van-
WestinBrugge, Bob Chindblom, Kurt
Hanus, Tim Cramer, Rob Bradford, Eric
Hillabrant, John Stewart and Mari Lazier.
Opening night is Thursday, May 9 at 8:15
p.m. Saturday, May 11 the curtain rises at
7:00 p.m. The performances are reserved
seating only and tickets can be purchased
at the box office for $3.50 or $2.00 with a
North Park I.D.
"Receiving the bad grades doesn't bother me. It's having to enter the job
market prematurely that gets my goat."
Senate Update
Jeff Anderson reported that 190 people have signed up for
the fast to raise money towards the famine in Ethiopia.
Laurie Ash reported that the faculty approved the two-track
English major. One track will have a literary emphasis
while the other has a writing emphasis.
Legislation #84-85 16 allocating $400 for new sand and
weed net for the volleyball pit was passed.
The Nominating Committee nominated and then the Senate ap-proved
Jeff Anderson for Academic Affairs Chairman, Brad
Halverson for S.A. Treasurer, Lida Bond for Recording
Secretary, Annette Akouris for S.A. publicity, and Francois
Nel for the College News Editor.
Sophmore Senator Blake Magnuson proposed legislation to
raise the Activity Fee $10 for '85-86. The rationale
behind the proposal was primarily the deficit of the Cupola
and secondarily the inadequate budgets of the Cupola and
the College News as well as other S.A. Committees. The
legislation was tabled and will be voted on next week.
"Fantastiks" Scheduling Resolved
Recently, a question over who controlled
the times of the Spring Event play "The
Fantastiks" was raised. Bob Chindblom, a
senior and the star of the play, was
dismayed because the director, instructor
Doy Athnos, had scheduled the final
Saturday performance from 8:15-10. This
left him, or any student involved with or
watching the play, no time to make the
Boat Dance which leaves at 9:30. He was
unaware of the times of performance until
recently and had made plans to attend the
Boat Dance, as did several other members
of the cast.
Concerned students wishing to attend the
play and the Boat Dance on Saturday were
also confused. Doy Athnos was requested
by these people to change the starting time
of the show from 8:15 to 7 so that it would
conclude by 8:45, enough time to make the
boat by 9:30.
Athnos refused. She said changing times
is not a professional procedure, that ad-vertising
for the eight-o'clock time was
already in Chicago magazine, and posters
were soon to be printed. 'Chindblom men-tioned
that all seats were "reserved-by-phone"
tickets and the box office personnel,
who would sell the tickets, could simply
relay the change in time.
Chindblom brought the problem to
Senate. There, Dean Strang promised to
check into the Senate's idea to see if "The
Fantastiks" was part of Spring Event. If so,
Pam Prill, Spring Event Chairperson, and
Senate would have control of time of the
performances.
The night after the Senate meeting,
Athnos was again requested to change the
time and was told of strong student op-position
to her firm grip on the time. She
compared the Senate to "children" and
tightened her grip.
Thursday afternoon, petitions were
spread through campus strongly
requesting the time change and asking that
more control go to the paying factions of the
College. The petitions were unnecessary as,
after a phone conversation with Dean
Strang, Athnos changed the time to seven.
As a result, "The Fantastiks" final show
on Saturday is now scheduled at 7 o'clock
p.m.

Thanks To Competition,
Campuses Plan
Some Dorm Treats
NORMAN, OK (CPS) — For college
students, access to cable television,
automated banking machines and an oc-casional
lobster dinner or late night pizza
used to mean having to go off campus.
Not anymore.
Thanks to administrators' worries about
attracting students to their dorms and
intensifying competition for rents with off-campus
apartment complexes, an in-creasing
number of schools are offering a
morgasbord of once-unheard-of amenities
or next fall.
At the University of North Dakota, some
dorms have weight rooms and saunas.
At Eastern Michigan University, some
on-campus residents have access to
computer rooms in their dormitories, and
re offered 12-month leases.
At the University of Oklahoma, free cable
elevision in dormitory lounges, a pizza bar
and an automated banking machine are in
he works for next fall.
The school also has hired a new food
service and given free reign to plan what
administrators call "monotony breakers,"
such as lobster dinners.
"Try as we might, there are some areas
in which we just cannot compete with
apartment complex owners," says OU
assistant housing director Craig Pulliam.
"But there ia an awful lot we can do."
Dormitory residents are not pampered at
every school. Many institutions still face
perennial dormitory overcrowding, par-ticularly
at the beginning of the school
year.
"It's sporadic across the country," says
Jim Grimm, housing director at the
University of Florida and president of a
national housing officers group.
Grimm estimates that between 20 and 25
percent of the nation's colleges now have a
thard time filling their dorms.
Some schools — Oklahoma and the
Superior and Oshkosh campuses of the
University of Wisconsin among them — are
being forced to close dormitories.
But the schools still have to pay off
mortgages on closed dorms, so, to avoid
similar fates, most vacant dorms are
turning increasingly to more aggressive
marketing. .
And some schools that are still full are
offering students more to stay on campus,
if only to keep their dorms as attractive as
those on other campuses.
Grimm notes the University of Florida is
establishing dormitories with a strong
academic thrust: computers, quiet halls
and live-in faculty advisors.
In some cases, innovative university
administrators are acting on their own
initiative. In others, they have no choice.
Norman, for example, has developed a
massive apartment glut off campus,
Pulliam points out.
Landlords are offering a range of in-ducements
to attract students, including a
month's free rent.
Other forces worked to undermine the
university's housing program. When the
state's minimum legal drinking age rose to
21 last year the school was forced to issue
citations for underage drinking in the
dorms.
"We don't have the luxury of saying
we're not going to enforce state law,"
Pulliam says.
The number of OU students living on
campus reached an all-time high in 1982-83.
Dormitory enrollment has declined by
about 10 percent since then, and school
officials expect it to go down again next
year.

German Club Lives Again
After a rather uneventful winter term a
group of North Parkers studying German
to re-establish the German Club in order to
bring more activity to the campus. The
German Club lapsed into nonexistence 2
years ago after being an integral part of the
NP community for over 15 years.
During the Spring term several students
have been discussing, meeting and plan-ning
the rebirth of the German Club for
next year. To this date the German Club
has just been approved by the Senate and
has elected officers to serve until May of
1986.
The German Club has set its goals up as a
means of promoting the study of German,
but most importantly to bring more ac-tivities
to the campus. With club mem-bership
being open to all NPC students and
faculty and staff. Activities being planned
are feature film showings, holiday
celebrations, outings to concerts and
restaurants and participation in the local
German community. Club-sponsored
fundraisers are on the drawing board in
order to raise money that will be applied to
the cost of the activities, thus reducing the
cost to the student and the club's depen-dency
on money from the Senate.
In the meantime, the German Club
sponsors a "Stammtisch" every Wed-nesday
at noon in the West Conference
room and anyone interested in learning the
German culture and language is welcome
to attend. For those who seek a greater
challenge North Park is sponsoring a fall
term in German with language levels from
beginning to advanced. Details for this
"wunderbar" program are available from
Mrs. Zemelis in C-43.

Women's Track:
Out of the Blocks
by Susan M. May
The 1985 women's outdoor track season
officially began on Saturday, March 30th,
with the fifth annual North Park In-vitational.
Consistent with the past few
years, as the season actually began the
number of participants on the team slowly
dwindled. The core of women coached by
Ted Hedstrand this year consists of cross
country star Belinda Bay, veteran track
sprinters Donna Magnuson and Sharon
Nelson, with Teri Benevich, Carolyn Betts,
and Lisa Gilbert providing new talent. It's
quality, not quantity at North Park.
On Saturday, April 13th, the squad
travelled to North Central College where
they competed against the top teams in the
conference. Lisa Gilbert led the day with a
mark of 59'10" in the discus competition.
This was her first attempt ever in this event
and clearly revealed her talent.
Sharon Nelson followed in the 100 meter
dash where she sprinted to a time of :14.04
(a personal record) despite a bad start out
of the blocks.
Next to the line was Belinda Bay in the
1500 meter run. She blew away the com-petition
capturing first place with a time of
4:57.
Both Bay and Teri Benevich participated
in the 800 meter run. Benevich achieved a
personal best racing to the line in 2:52. Bay
finished second in her heat.
On Saturday, April 20th, Bay and Nelson
were joined by Carolyn Betts and Donna
Magnuson for the meet hosted by Carthage
College in Kenosha, Wisconsin. The
sprinters had it tough as all the events were
run directly into a fierce wind that whipped
off Lake Michigan. Fine performances
were given by both Magnuson and Nelson in
the 100 meter dash. Magnuson hit the finish
line in :14.9, and Nelson in :14.3 which
qualified her for the finals. Unfortunately,
the disorganized officials never caught her
final time, and consequently, robbed her of
her place.
On the brighter side, Carolyn Betts
finished strong in the 200 meter dash with a
time of :31.4, and strided smoothly to a
personal best in the 400 meter dash. Her
final time was :73.9.
Belinda Bay tackled the 1500 meter run
once again and placed fourth with a time of
4:59. Without a doubt, a good performance,
but it was in the 3000 meter run later in the
day that she shined. With total control, she
came from behind in a fiercely competitive
race to capture second place in 10:42.
Tomorrow, the women will be competing
at North Central College once again. It is
the most important meet of the season as
they will be vying for the top honors in the
Chicago Metro Conference. Because of the
small number of participants on the team it
is doubtful that North Park will win any
meet this year. But if you look for fine in-dividual
performances, you'll never be
disappointed.
Hedstrand Retires;
Swanson Appointed
by Steve Meysing
Legendary North Park Cross Country
runner Larry Swanson will join the faculty
this fall when Coach Hedstrand retires
after almost 40 years of service both to the
academy and the college. Swanson is a
three-time All-American and the man who
has retired one CCIW record and still holds
some to this day.
What began in 1947 for coach Hedstrand
as a coaching job for football and basket-ball
has grown from coaching virtually all
sports at the academy to coaching track
and cross country presently, Hedstrand's
list of accomplishments while coaching at
North Park is lengthy. His many plaques
tell of a coach who is recognized as the only
coach undefeated in football and basket-ball.
He is a member of the Basketball
Coaches' Hall of Fame, a Distinguished
Alumni, and the founder of women's track
and cross country at North Park.
As Larry Swanson's coach while he was
at NPC, Hedstrand has kept in touch with
Swanson and has decided to retire one year
early since the school now has the op-portunity
to make Swanson a part of the
faculty. Hedstrand speaks with great op-
(312) 463-4380
(312) 463-6767
timism about Swanson joining the faculty
and hopes to volunteer time to help with the
team in its continuing tradition of ex-cellence.
Coach Anderson was lacking
enough adjectives to describe his en-thusiasm
for Swanson but was confident
that he would be a "great" addition since
Swanson's main interest is in cross country
and track. With hopes high, Anderson told
of his big expectations for this "fine
Christian man."
Larry Swanson felt glad to be returning
to NP and was grateful that Coach Hed-strand
has kept him in mind for this job all
these years. When asked about what
changes he would like to make, Swanson
wanted to develop a better recruiting plan.
He would like to recruit athletes, both men
and women, for track and cross country
while finding good students that would
make a four-year commitment to NP.
Swanson said he was heavily influenced by
Coach Hedstrand and he applies Hed-strand's
coaching philosophy as he coaches
High School track today. Swanson said that
it was Hedstrand who helped him decide to
be a coach and for that Swanson is grateful
since he really enjoys coaching and
working with young athletes.
