News Briefs By BILL BRENT WORLD
Photo by Joe Johnson Renovations could be finished by next month on French pool.
Facelift On French Pool By DAVID RITTER "It could be ready by April and I think it will have a whole different feeling about it." These comments were made by Dr. Judith Johnson, chairman of the health and physical education department, concerning the renovation of French Pool. The face lift for the pool is the final phase of reconstructing French Dormitory. The project, which costs just over $86,000, is under the supervision of Ike Finney, resident inspector for the school. Finney also believes the pool can be ready for a spring opening, "all that is left is cleaning the tiled walls, the pool, itself, plus we are installing two new clorinators." Other cosmetic work done on the building includes: Removal of the old bleachers, expanding the deck area, a complete paint job and blocking off the double doors which led to the street. Several new features have been added which will help change the atmosphere: A new roof which includes 10 skylights to help light and heat the pool area and six
garage-type doors have been installed in the east wall that open up to a deck outside the building. Johnson feels that, "when the weather warms up and the doors are open the pool can turn into a real nice place for students to gather with friends and enjoy the day." The two reasons behind the renovation are that as soon as the pool is ready it will help ease up the logjam on Lancer Hall pool, lancer's pool is being used this semester from 8:00 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. The decision on how French Pool will be used has not been made, but Johnson states, "It could be used for recreation swimming and when outside groups would like to reserve swim time." Also the renovations make the pool area more efficient and attractive. There is also consideration that the pool can be open year round. With the addition of a heating element to warm the water the only problem would be keeping the surrounding air warm enough.
Class To Excavate 'PreHistoric Indian Village' By JOE JOHNSON In 1870 A.D. Heinrich Shlieman uncovered the ancient remains of Troy, verifying with solid evidence the culture that Homer, in 850 B.C. had written about. He was an archeologist believing in Homer's detailed descriptions of palaces and weapons and capturing in those ancient ruins, the voice of the past; "a voice nobody has ever heard before." Dr. James William Jordan, associate professor of Anthropology, is in a similar (though, perhaps, smaller scaled) venture. "To try to make the atones talk...making them speak." The endeavor will take place this summer under the title
of the "Ixmgwood Summer Field School in Archeology". The field school is divided into two classes; Anthropology 496 (Field Methods in Archeology) and Anthropology 595 (The Organization and Execution of) Archeological Fieldwork). Both are offered May 26th through July 2nd and July 5th through August 6th. Anthropology 495 should give the student a working knowledge of the tools and methods used in excavating an archeological site. The tools range in dimensions from a bulldozer utilized for clearing the heavy surface dirt to a mason's trowel used in the delicate art of scraping the surface of the ground (called the
In Latin America, El Salvador has been ripped for nearly two years by civil war. Last week Maj. Roberto D'Abuisson, a retired army leader of the rightwing party in the upcoming election, was wounded by leftist guerillas. This violence in the past few months has upped U.S. involvement in Central America. "El Salvador is not Vietnam," said Secretary of State Alexander Haig in Washington last week,
enforcing his point that the U.S. will support the Salvadoran government against the Marxist oriented Farabundo Morti National Liberation Front. The Transvall Province voted 172-36 in confidence for South African Prime Minister P. W. Botha. Botha also thwarted a revolt in his own party by ultraconservatives who are against lightening strict racial segregation policies.
The capital of Uganda, Kampala, was attacked last week by mortars from 300 heavily armed guerillas. The violence culminated on the cities military barracks as part of a plan to oust President Milton Obote and his government. The fighting between guerillas and troops resulted in 69 deaths. Battling has not been this harsh since 1979 and the ouster of Idi Amin.
NATION After 12 hours of deliberating a jury of eight blacks and four whites found Wayne B. Williams guilty of murder. The 23-year-old Williams, a free-lance photographer and talent scout, is charged in the deaths of two of the 28 young blacks in Atlanta. State legislatures and governors nationwide are ready to start negotiations with President Reagan on a dual plan
to separate state and national support for programs in the 1983 budget. The President is calling for cuts and turning over programs run by the federal government to the states. State officials fear they will not have enough money to adequately run the programs. A report from the National Academy of Sciences on marijuana, the country's most
accepted and illegally used drug, discloses a high risk to health; heavy prolonged use may cause cancer of the lungs. The drug's short-term devastation to mental capacity, sperm production and lungs is usually reversible. l-ast week's report released by the U. S. surgeon general says that smoking is to blame for almost one-third of all cancer deaths.
Arrests Made In 'Incidents' Case From PUBLIC AFFAIRS Last month, there were four incidents on or near the campus that contributed to rumors regarding a lack of safety for women students. In two instances, a young man of 15 or 16 pinched two women students from behind; he has since been arrested. In the third incident, which occurred off but near campus, a male student allegedly pushed and hit a female student who was his girlfriend; the matter is receiving disciplinary attention. The last incident involved an unknown male placing a knife to the side of a female behind Her Gym at about 8:10 p.m. The student was able to get away uninjured. Although identification of the would-be
assailant is difficult, the matter is under serious investigation. A possibly related occurrence has been the arrest of a non-student local man who has been exposing himself in residence halls. No other incidents involving threatened or actual physical abuse of women students are known to have occurred at Longwood this semester. In addition to an increase in campus lighting, the progress made so far by Campus Police, and the development of an escort service by Alpha Sigma Phi, the following suggestions are offered to women students: 1. Avoid walking alone late at night or after dark through unlighted or lightly traveled
robatoge technique). No prerequisites are required to register for this class. Anthropology 595 will concentrate on learning the skills necessary to organize and supervise the execution of archeological excavations. Students will serve as Dr. Jordan's assistants, taking one or two grids from the overall site and aiding in the design of the field strategy, intrasite sampling technique, site mapping, artifact feature plotting, and recording for the chosen area. The site, which will be excavated this summer, is a cluster of three large mounds located near the junction of the Appomattox River and Buffalo
Creek. Entitled the Smith Taylor mound site, it is thought by Dr. Jordan to be a prehistoric Indian location, dating from the late woodland period. "There was probably an Indian farming village surrounding the three mounds and they utilized the interior area as a type of civic i center or community center. Wooden buildings sheltered the artificially built mounds." If Dr. Jordon's hypothesis is correct, theSmithTaylorexcavation should yield pottery, hoes, farm tools, rotted or charred wood (from the shelter), and a variety of religious type artifacts (some possibly used for burial purposes), anything that would (Continue* m ptfal)
areas of campus. Plan your route in advance. 2. If possible, walk with one or more friends; use the Escort Service if you feel the need. 3. If you think you're being followed, get away fast and head for a lighted area and other persons. 4. Report suspicious activities to the Campus Police or other College officials as soon as possible. Alert and prompt action will clearly aid in reducing this kind of problem.

Your Turn Editor, The Rotunda. I would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge and express my gratitude to the male population of Longwood College. Following some rather threatening events on our campus, most females have been advise not to go out alone at, night. If you had gone out last Thursday night, you would have met more than one guy out making sure that there were no unescorted females. Alpha Sigma Phi has carried their concern one step further by providing a regular "escort service" with numbers posted in all female residence halls. Such courtesy does not go unappreciated and it is quite a nice feeling to realize that not all chivalry is dead — at least, not at Ixmgwood! Tamara Nash

Editor, the Rotunda: I, in turn would like to thank Student Union Treasurer, Cathy Roach, for calling attention to my $4,000 budget error in a recent Rotunda article. I admit my guilt in not doing my homework before quoting such estimates. However, I feel that if the student Union would like a $4,000 addition to their budget, they should do their homework, as far as planning and programming in the future. My case at point: Oktoberfest weekend, last semester, S-UN loses $6,000 in the major concert with the Ozark Mountain Daredevils. If you want the cash, make it, then take it, don't lose it. This time, my homework was done. Duke Rollins

Checking Up On Checking Students who need money at school often find that many stores in Farmville won't cash checks unless a purchase is made. Twoparty checks are even more of a problem. Par-Bils is one store in Farmville that has a very lenient check cashing policy — probably the most lenient in town. They realize that many stores in Farmville won't cash checks for students; therefore, they allow students to cash personal check as long as they make a 25 cent
minimum purchase. Students can then make the check out for $15.00 over the amount of purchase. With two-party checks, they request two ID's but they don't enforce checking ID's on personal checks. They charge a $10.00 service charge on all returned checks. Safeway grocery store cashes all personal checks that are made out to Safeway specifically. They cash two-party checks only when
Rap Session

night's sleep, the students at Wednesday's Rap Session are there to listen and offer advice. If you've just bounced a $20.00 check at Par Bil's, gotten written up for breaking visitation rules ("We just fell asleep, and when we woke up it was 11:15!"), or need to improve your grades and don't know how to study like you should be studying, you are encouraged to come in and talk about your problems. Rap Session is sponsored by Operation Care, a newly formed organization strongly concerned for the welfare of others. The students in Rap Session are comprised of juniors and seniors. The problems expressed by students are kept strictly confidential.
the check is made out to the student by the parents. Safeway requests two ID's upon cashing all checks. They have a $10.00 service charge on all returned checks. People's Drug Store requests two means of identification when cashing either personal or twoparty checks. They enforce an $8.00 service fee on all returned checks. Big Star grocery store probably has the strictest check cashing policy in town. They request two forms of identification: the students social security number, and they often write down a description of the person cashing the check. They won't cash two-party checks at all. Even though cashing a check may be convenient at Par-Bils. it can also cause many problems. For instance, stolen checks may be cashed with little trouble to the person involved. This would not be as easily accomplished at other places of business where ID checking is enforced.

Students who enroll in the Field School will be accommodated in the regular college dormitories and will take meals, except lunch which will be eaten at the site, in the college dining hall. According to Dr. Jordan there's a possibility of as many as 10 ovemighters to allow the students a chance to get a feel for their work. "Archeology is not so much a technical experience, but rather a humanistic experience. An ! attempt to generate inside one| self the sensations and culture of the area one is working with.

When you spend the entire day at the dig, sweating and bleeding, eaten by bugs and ticks, and then have a chance to climb up on the spoils pile (waste dirt) and watch the darkness creep over the site, hearing the same sounds as 800 or 4,000 years ago. You begin to appreciate what you're doing, it becomes almost a sacred experience. That's what I want my students to achieve."

SPORTS SnOW-Bowl: LongWOod Ties ODU 4-4 By MIKE LYNCH To even attempt to play a rugby game in a foot of snow would cause one to question the participants sanity, but the Longwood College Rugby Football Club did just that and came up with a 4-4 tie against a highly reputed Old Dominion University Club. When you consider the fact that Old Dominion had recently gone on a 38-0 rampage over Richmond, a team that usually beats Longwood by a fair margin, that tie didn't look bad at all. "The snow was definitely to our advantage," Kurt Mueller said after the game. And man, did it snow. There was no way to see the lines on the field, the ball did not bounce when it hit the ground and all the players, except Vaughn Jipner of course, wore sweat pants under the traditional rugby shorts to gain some insulation against the snow that they spent much of their time in. The game itself did not start too well for Longwood. The teams looked even enough at the start but before the first battle of suds could be downed, ODU's Dave
Cantor got an opening and took off down the right side of the field, getting near the goal line before the last Longwood man could bring him down. Then he just pitched it back to Phil Cavatoni, who was right behind him, who made it in to the endzone for the try. The extra points? You gotta be kidding! This is normally a difficult maneuver but in a foot of snow it was nearly impossible. So after not even getting close on that ODU received the kick with a 4-0 lead. ODU would get no more points for the rest of the game though, as Longwood would not repeat the mistake of letting Cantor get too much room. Longwood got very close on one occasion during the half, but ODU kicked it out and kept the ball between the 22 meter lines for the rest of the half. The second half was somewhat uneventful until Dean Driskill, while with the ball, drew both his and Marty Mann's defenders to him and then pitched the ball to Mann who was now free to go more than half the length of the field, out-running three more ODU defenders on his way to the
game tying try Mann aptly described the play, saying "He (Driskill) gave me the ball and I just ran like hell." The extra points attempt never even got kicked due to a penalty of some sort and the game was now tied at 4. Longwood had a chance to go ahead, in the last few seconds with a field goal attempt... right ... by Marty Mann. He took quite a while setting up, much to ODU's dissatisfaction, and when he did kick it, the ball actually reached the required height but it missed the mark to the left, due to the wind according to Mann. Shortly after that, time expired and the game ended in a 4-4 tie. Considering the circumstances, one would think Longwood would be quite proud of that, but they were constantly denying this after the game, thinking that they could have won, as they well could have. For the past two weeks the piayers have been unanimous in their observations that simple mistakes on Longwood's part and not necessarily the talent of the other team have been the main reasons for their failure to win the past two games.
Lancers End Season At 15-8 From SPORTS INFO Ungwood's 1981-82 basketball season came to an early end Saturday when a snowstorm forced cancellation of the lancers' trip to Liberty Baptist. In Coach Cal Luther's first season at the helm, Longwood finished with a respectable 15-8 record. Tuesday's 89-81 double overtime decision over Coppin State turned out to be the season finale as Mike McCroey closed out his career with 24 points and an 8-8 performance from the free throw line. McCroey, who transferred from Allegheny Community College last season, had 623 points and 122 steals in his two-year career. The win at Coppin State had particular significance for sophomore Jerome (THE COBRA) Kersey and junior Joe Remar. Kersey, who had 20 points and 15 rebounds, broke his own record for rebounds in a season and topped the 500 mark for his career (509). The 6-7
forward, who has 864 career points in two season, grabbed 260 rebounds this year for an average of 11.8. He also scored 17 ppg., led the team in steals (45), slam dunks (28) and blocked shots (26) and was second in assists with 61. Remar, a consistent performer for three seasons, scored 19 points to top the 1,000 point mark for his career. The career and season record holder in assists (385 in 3 years), Remar now has 1,011 points and is a good bet to break top career scorer Kenny Ford's mark of 1,041 next season. Junior Ron Orr, who averaged 14.3 ppg., now has 924 career points and 445 career rebounds. Senior Randy Johnson ended his career with 459 rebounds and 675 points. Johnson was a three-year starter for Longwood. The 1981-82 edition of the I^ancers is the highest scoring team in Ixmgwood's six-year basketball history. Longwood ranked among the NCAA Division II leaders all season in
scoring offense and field goal percentage. Averaging 54.9 per cent shooting from the floor and 82.6 points per game, the Lancers set a new school record for scoring average. The Lancers were perhaps three wins away from a berth in the NCAA Div. II playoffs. Five of the team's eight losses came by a total of 20 points and two of the defeats were in overtime. In reflecting on the season Coach Luther pointed to poor free throw shooting as a key factor. "We had a successful season, but we lost too many close games," said the coach. "We were in every game but two, and if we had hit our free throws in the clutch we could have won several more games." Luther reached a personal milestone two weeks back — his 300th career victory as a coach on the college level.
Remar, Player Of Week From SPORTS INFO Junior guard Joe Remar (Elizabeth, N.J.) became only the second player in Longwood basketball history to score more than 1,000 career points last week and in recognition of his accomplishment, the 6-0 eager has been named Longwood College Player of the Week for the period February 19-26. Player of the Week is chosen by the Longwood Sports Information Office. Remar has been named Player of the Week twice before this season. Remar, a three-year starter, scored 19 points in Longwood's season ending double overtime win over Coppin State Tuesday night to give him 1,011 career points, the second highest point total in Lancer history. With another season left, Remar is a

The eager has handed out 385 assists in three years including 105 this season when he helped Longwood compile a 15-8 mark. Joe handed out 145 assists last season, most ever at Longwood. In addition to averaging five assists per game, Remar scored 14.8, had 43 steals, 54 rebounds and led the fastbreak.
