ROTUNDA Native American Pow Wow Coming To LC

A preview of what's to come at Longwood's first Pow Wow.

Annual Block Party Entertains All By Linda Fox Rotunda Staff On Friday August 27 from 4 to 7 p.m., Longwood students, staff, and faculty were entertained by DJ. Jimmy Oliver from Richmond, at the seventh Annual Block party. Held downtown on the Courthouse lawn, ARA provided the meal which consisted of fried chicken, hot dogs, barbecue. potato salad, macaroni salad, coleslaw, baked beans, drinks, and dessert. "This year something new as been added," said Mary Kay Cochran. Student Development Educator. The Farm vil le Chamber of Commerce held a drawing for a $50 gift certificate "to

be used at the store of ones choice." Cochran suited that this was a great way 10 recognize I^ongwood and to welcome all new and returning students. "Where else could you go to college and have die town close down Main Street to traffic, just to serve dinner to all students, staff, and faculty?' Cochran explained that 13 businesses from the area set up booths to introduce themselves to the students, staff, and faculty. Sidney Allen, President of the Downtown Merchants Association, said, "this is a wonderful way to acquaint new students to the downtown area businesses."

The Downtown Merchants Association is very pleased "to have an event like this to give the students, staff and faculty ihe opportunity to Ml

the wide variety of goods and services available." Allen said it was very convenient for those businesses located within walking distance of campus. Joan Mason, Director of Student Activities and the Student Union, said that the Block Party was the end of a week of events and activities for the students. She added, "this evening after dinner, the movie Sommersby will be played outdoors on the lawn, and popcorn will be served."

CDC: Each Cigarette Steals Seven Minutes From A Smoker's Life ATLANTA (AP) - Every cigarette steals seven minutes of a smoker's life - adding up to a staggering 5 million years of potential life that Americans lose to cigarettes each year, government doctors reported Thursday. "It's quite shocking," said Dr. Michael Eriksen of the Centers for Disease Control and Invention. "All of us have loved ones that smoke and are patient and understanding and want them to quit. But realizing that is time being taken away from their life with you puts a new urgency on it." The CDC counted 418,690 U.S. deaths in 1990 that were directly attributed to cigarette smoking, not counting cigars, pipes and smokeless tobacco. That amounted to 20 percent of all deaths in (he United States that year, Eriksen said. And those premature deaths added up to 5.04 million years of life that cigarettes stole from Americans in 1990 alone, the CDC concluded. The Tobacco Institute declined to comment "We don't have alternative demographics or alternative surveys to compare" with the CDC's number, said Thomas I amia. a spokesman for the Washington, D.C.-based industry lobby. Ihe CDC compared the average number of cigarettes those dead smok-

ers had puffed with the number of years they lost. It found that every minute spent smoking took a minute from a person's life. The average smoker takes about 7 minutes to finish a cigarette. "It's a devastating report," said Dr. Alfred Munzer, president of the American Lung Association. "It's a very clear and graphic illustration to people mat every time they light up they shorten their lives " Americans' life expectancy from birth is 74 years for men and 78 for women, but it rises with age. The CDC calculated smokers' years of life lost individually according to how much longer someone their age could be expected to live. There are about 46 million smokers in the United Stales, and 44 million former smokers. The number of smokers has declined steadily since 1964, and the nation is now stalling to see a drop in smoking-related deaths, the CDC soul Those deaths dropped 3.6 percent between 1988 and 1990.Tim decline is due mostly ID a 10.4 percent drop in cardiovascular deaths, fn>m less smoking as well as medical improvements during those two years, the CDC said. Deaths from lung cancer increased by 4.4 percent during that time, and IIK)SC from other chronic pulnionan diseases are up 4 8 percent These

lung diseases crop up many years alter someone starts smoking. "It's never too late to quit, but the flip side of that is the earlier you quit the better," Eriksen said. Ihe CDC fears declines in smoking deaths won't continue because an estimated 3 million teen-agers smoke. They're especially at risk for smoking-related diseases because they starting smoking so early.

On Eriday and Saturday, September 10 and 11, I.ongwood will host an authentic Native American Pow Wow. The festival is open to the public. It will feature traditional singing and dancing of several Native American tribes. Ray LitUe Turtle, a Cherokee from North Carolina, will be master of ceremonies. Head Man Dancer is O.I.. Durham (Blue Eagle), of I.ynchburg. His wife, Carole, is Head Lady Dancer. The Color Guard of the Native American Warrior Society will perform, and Young Elk will be guest drum The performances will be on Her Field, beginning with the Grand Entry, Intertribal Dancing, and Fancy Dancing at 7 o'clock Friday evening. Ihe Pow Wow will continue on Saturday with a crafts contest at 11 a.m., a performance at 1 p.m., and the final performance featuring specialty dances at 7 p.m. A lodge village will be set up on Barlow Field. Native American vendors will oiler an. emits, lood, clothing, books, pamphlets, and audio and video cassettes. According to Blue liagle the Pow Wows were originally spiritual activities. Caucasians, such as Custer. thought the Native American dances were an omen of death and destruction, especially the ghost dance. Although the dancing might have changed because of mis disapproval, the traditions of the Native Americans survived in a large part because of the Pow Wows. And while die dancing might have been religious, now it has become a means of transferring the culture of

as according to the type of dancing or rank in the tribe. The first in the line-up are the Veterans, followed by the Chiefs/Elders. Then follows the Princesses and then the Head Man and Head Lady dancers. The dancers are lined up according to the style of dancing they engage in. First come the men dancers with the Old Style leading. Then the Straight dancers, the Fancy dancers, the Grass dancers, and then (he Traditional dancers. Following are the Women dancers beginning with (he Buckskin, (he Fancy dancer, the Shaw, and then the Jingle Dress. Similar to the dancing, the crafts presented will be Native American and "have a touch of the tradition," as Blue Eagle said. "When people leave," Blue Eagle explained, "they gain knowledge of somethings. Some people are touched and can not shake the experience. Some people came with open hearts and with open minds, they leave with theirprejudicesandguiltbehind. They watch the harmony, they watch die People, and they listen to the drum. The drum is the heartbeat of the People." Admission for the entire Pow Wow is $4 for adults; $1 for youth age 8 to 18, and free for children under age 8. The Native American Pow Wow is part of the "Year of the Environment" at Longwood and is coordinated by Dr. Vera Williams, Dean of Graduate and Continuing Studies, and Dr. James W. Jordan, professor of anthropology and director of the Archeology Field School.

Chamber Music Series Opens Sept. 4

Clinton Bumps Bodyguards EDGARTOWN, Mass. (AP) President Clinton turned on his protectors Friday. Actually, he backed straight into them. Clinton, driving a golf cart, had pulled up briefly in front of a golf course clubhouse. When he got back in, he threw the cart into reverse and backed up, striking a cart carrying Secret Service agents. It was a light bump, sort of like those in electric bumper cars at fairs and amusement parks. Hillary Rodham Clinton joined her husband on the 18lh hole and took a few shots, drawing cheers from the crowd. Martha's Vineyard, the Atlanticoffshore island where the Clintons are vacationing, is not exactly a hotbed of Republicanism, but opposition party

the Indians from one generation to the next, and from one group of people to another. Etiquette is a very important factor of the Pow Wow. As Blue Eagle explained, there are certain courtesies dial must be observed. For example, at one point during the weekend, the public will be allowed to walk among the various lodges. Blue Eagle advised that if one of the lodge doors is not open, "then pass it by." Another factor of etiquette is the taking of still photographs and video taping. Before taking a still photograph, ask first There will be certain dances which should not be taped. Some ceremonies, such as the pipe ceremonies can not be filmed. Ihe actual dancing will be held withinalOOfootcircle. Asaccording to tradition, the drums will be either positioned on die outskirts of the circle or in the center. There will be one lead drum, one great drum, and then all the other various drummers. As Blue hagle pointed out, "there can be many drummers." The various dances will also be danced in a particular direction. "There isareason for everything," Blue Eagle explained. If the dancing is Northern, then die dancing will be in counterclockwise . It is opposite for the Southern. The grand entry for the Pow Wow, according to Blue Eagle, will be "when all are lined up. They will enter from one direction. They go around once, and then Head Man and Head I-ady start all the dances and pass all dancers before dancing starts." The line up for the Grand Entry is

residents seemed as pleased as Democrats to have the president visit this resort island. "I can't remember when was die last lime a Republican presidential candidate carried the island." said Betle Carroll, 70, a lifelong Republican. Carroll, who is a Republican registrar, actually wailed several hours Tuesday to catch a glimpse of Clinton as he returned to shore from a yachting trip with former first lady Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis.

PERSPE CTIVES Awareness Must Begin At College We at the Rotunda would like to take this opportunity to welcome all students, hoth new and returning, to Longwood. Though there are always some people here during the summer, it is only with the presence of the entire student body that the college regains its vitality. The upcoming year presents a variety of challenges to he faced by members of the Longwood community. Students strive to maintain a high grade point average and balance a number of often conflicting pressures. When one enters college, however, concentration only on immediate personal needs and desires in not only selfish, but detrimental to our community on a number of levels. The greatest challenge faced hy most college students is learning to simply become aware. 'The student should, indeed must, become aware of his or her surroundings, as well as their impact on those surroundings. No longer is the student held safe in a world created by loving, caring family, sheltered from must of life's unpleasantness. Instead, he or she is thrust into an arena wherein decisions must be made on a variety of subjects, ranging from choosing to have safe sex, to voting in elections, to recycling an aluminum can. Unfortunately, most students are not aware of the impact of their actions. Or if they have some inkling of the problems we face today, for the most part they simply decide that "Well, I'm only one person. It won't make a difference." Anyone who believes that is a fool. Our world, on environmental, social, economic, and political levels, is held together by the most tenuous of bonds. One person can, and often does, make a difference, be it in a positive or negative way. College must be a place where, if it has not occurred already, the individual learns of his or her importance in the greater scheme of things. Longwood has an obligation to make its' students aware of the repercussions of their actions. A failure to do so is irresponsible and unforgivable.

NEWS/FEATURES FarmvegdS, USA Allen Proposes Contract To Slow Tuition Increases By Jennie Fennel! Copy Editor By now, all the freshmen and transfersought to be dazzled by Farmville's variety of activity. Be aware that you are a part of this vast mecca of entertainment. Sigh. The Farmville business owners are particularly thankful for our presence. We comprise a large amount of the population here. Although there are a few . ahem . . . monopoly businesses, many would not be as strong without the students' participation. So what? It's no fun here, you say? You want to go home? We've all said that. Many of us swore during the first few weeks that we were deserting this place for good. I'm one of them, still here, two years later. The charm of this town has grown on me! Hardee's is open rather late, and credit cards are accepted! So go ahead and charge a biscuit and a water on that visa. One can sit inside the 'Queen for hours, and customers are allowed to have as many cups of coffee as they

want—or need. The Cheese Factory is good too, but it closes way too early! Farmville is aching for an all-night coffee shop. Walker's Diner is one of a kind. At least I've never been anywhere else that offers pigs' brains! Charming little diner, however. There's a health food store in town, too. And the 'Mart. And the Doyne-Burger Funeral Home/Fast Food place across from French (ha-ha! Some really believe that!) If you just need to escape the excitement for a short while, Yogaville is about forty minutes away. What is it? I visited it, and, well, I'm not exactly sure. It is very interesting; a gargantuan pink lotus flower shrine greets visitors at the top of a long and winding road, with the river nearby. One feels as if he or she has entered a storybook when visiting Yogaville. There is a bus station close by, but the deceptive-sounding Farmville Municipal Airport dews not provide pas-

senger flights. There is the F-A-R— the Farmville Transportation Bus, which travels as far as Wal-Mart. After a while, we students are conditioned to become more creative with our time in Farmville. Playing hideand-seek and having treasure hunts are fun again. Ifequippcdwithabike, there are many scenic routes to adventure. Farmville is not lacking in open space, serene surroundings, friendly people, and Funeral Homes.

RICIIMOND (AP) - Republican gubernatorial candidate George Allen says state-supported colleges should be forced to limit tuition increases to the rate of inflation. That could be accomplished by requiring colleges and students' parents to enter into a binding contract lying tuition increases to inflation, Allen said at a news conference Wednesday. Allen proposed the contract as a way of slowing double-digit tuition increases that he said have threatened to price the average Virginian out of the education market.

We dress the student body.

Over the last four years, Allen said, tuition has gone up an average of 50 percent at Virginia's state-supported colleges. "Virginia's colleges and universities are among the finest in the nation, but our soaring tuition rales are threatening to make higher education a luxury beyond the means of more and more Virginia families," he said. His Democratic opponent, Mary Sue Terry, also has said she would try to limit tuition increases. She said she would meet with college presidents to discusscurbing operating costs at the ir schools.

"We've got to do more with less. We can no longer afford to spend 30 cents of every dollar on administrative costs," she said Wednesday. Allen said tuition rates for Virginia colleges and universities not granting doctoral degrees are the second highest in the nation. The average cost, including tuition, i. HUM and board and fees, is $8,100. he said. The former congressman criticized Gov. L. Douglas Wilder for "driving up tuition costs to pay for other spending priorities." Wilder spokesman Glenn

Davidson said the colleges tixik I re duction in state aid. but most chose to make up for it by raising tuition in stead of cutting programs "George Allen's criticism is mis directed." he said, adding that Wilder has proposed that colleges be forced next year to become more efficient Allen also proposed increasing tu ilion rates for oul-of-state students to cover their share ol new campus build ings. rewarding colleges that reduce Overhead and encouraging coninui nity colleges to oiler a two-year curriculum that would be fully transli i ruble to u four-year college

Pizza Etiquette: A Study Guide By Jennie Fennell Copy Editor, Ring. "Domino's. Can I help you?" For most students, this is an evercommon telephone call. It's 11:30 PM. and we are s-t-a-r-v-i-n-g. Not that the dining hall doesn't offer mouth-watering delectable dinner. But in cases you just weren't in the mood for piping-hot baked ziti this evening, chances are. you phoned a delivery pizza place with a proposition in mind. You and your buddies immediately begin the search. You kick the laundry further under the bed. saying, "I still have two pairs of underwear left," as you pocket those quarters. Up and down the hallway, you and your comrades look for loose change, somehow managing to collect that $9.50 before the delivery person arrives. In exchange for a pizza, you hand the delivery person, whose name in this case is Arnold, the massive

88 cents is in coins. "Sorry about the pennies, dude— bye." And you take off to an area where you are absolutely sure the freeloaders won't find you. What's the matter with this scenario? Meanwhile. Arnold is internally kicking himself; his self-esteem has reached a dramatic pitfall. "What's wrong with me?" he ponders, as he wearily climbs into his'76 Duster. He sulks all the way back to the store. Arnold has been stiffed again.. I spent the summer delivering, too. I've been where Arnold is. Man, it brings you down to face such bold rejection. Most pizza stores give drivers minimum wage and an arguable amount for gasoline. But just as it is customary for waiters and waitresses to be tipped, I hereby make this declaration: PIZZA-DRIVERS SHOULD BE TIPPED TOO!" The once-a-month oil changes and excessive damage to tires, brakes, and

income and sanity After all. the purpose of delivering pizza is not to tear up the vehicle just to fix it. It is to earn money to pay for things we need, such as food, water, bills, and. uh. CDs. In order to persuade you to mend your ways, here are some useful guidelines

1. NEVER DO THIS! "The total is $o.«x." "Here's ten dollars.

LC Athletics On TV This Fall

Lancers Host Elon Sunday at 2:00

Veterans Boost Soccer I ooking to continue a positive trend and perhaps improve after a 10-8-1 mark a year ago. Long wood will likely have nine veterans in the starting lineup when it opens the 1993 soccer season Sunday, hosting F.lon College for a 2:00 contest. IjOOV coach Stan Cieplinski (2728-2,3 years) has three of his top four scorers back from a year ago. but he feels Ixxigwood'sexpericnce will help most on defense. "1 ast year we scored well (40 goals) but we gave up too many goals (42)," said the coach. "I'm looking forward to a better defensive year. We're hoping to out-score the opposition by a 2-1 margin." Longwood was young on defense a year ago with mostly freshmen starting at the hack and goalkeeper positions. KeeperTaylor Tuckerand backs David Walker and dreg Russ figure to be improved with a year's experience, plus senior back Steve Heid returns after sitting out last season. In addition, sopliomore Greg Wise, a transfer from Norfolk State, will give the defense a boost in terms of speed and power at sweeper. Kevin I'orterfield is another veteran back while freshmen are Chris Cramer, Bryan Banner and Scrdar Serttas. Sophomore DavidGaines and freshmen Nathan Gingras and Scott Knight will challenge Tucker in goal. In the midficld, Cieplinski can count on returning starters Kevin Carey, Ross Johnson and Brian Raugh,

a back last season. Johnson, who has 16 goals and 12 assists for his career, led last year's team with 10 goals and five assists. Carey added five goals and three assists. Carey and Johnson are seniors as is T.J. Shepardson, in contention for a starting midfield spot along with freshmen Jeff Edwardsand Jose I.opez. Edwards' brother Byron was a starter and captain on last year's lancer team. Lopez was reportedly the MVP and high scorer on the Honduran Junior National team. Cieplinski says the newcomer has excellent skills with the ball. Lopez, a speedy player, will see action even if he doesn't start. Freshmen Adam Harlcss and Jimmy Steclc provide additional depth in the midficld. Lancer ImK QutlwK l-l-l Up front, senior Ted Doran a captain along with Heid. Carey and Johnson, is back on the team after taking off last year. With 10 goals and seven assists for his career, DOOB should give the offense a boost. Sophomore Jon Gales rang up eight goals and three assists last year, and could be even better in 1993. Sophomore DR. Coffie. the lone backup at the forward position, has looked good in early season workouts. After going 5-0-0 in the Virginia Intercollegiate Soccer Association Eastern Division last year, Longwood is hoping to make its eighth appear-

ance over the past 12 years in the VISA Playoffs. The lancers dropped a 1-0 decision to Randolph-Macon in die first round of the tourney in 1992. The VISA Playoffs have changed for the upcoming season. Rather than taking the top two teams from each division, as was done last year, only the Eastern and Western Division champs will qualify for the V IS A Playoffs in 1993. Thus, only two teams will have a chance to win the VISA title. The four-team playoff format will return next season. Longwood will play 10 of its 18 games at home this season, the most home tilts in Cieplinski's tenure. In addition to Elon, a team which whipped thel.ancers4-0 in '92,Longwood will host St. Mary's. HampdenSydney, Queens, District of Columbia. Kulztown and Wofford, in addition 10 VISA foes Catholic. Mary Washington and Christopher-Newport. Mary Washington is the defending VISA champ. Sept. 11-12 Longwood and llampden-Sydney will co-host the 14th Southside Virginia Soccer Classic. With first-day play at Longwood, the lancers will face St. Mary's at 1:00 while the Tigers play York at 3:00. Sunday the teams switch opponents with Longwood vs. York at 1:00 and llampden-Sydney vs. St. Mary's at 3:00. Longwood has won 16 games in a row and has a 22-4 mark in the Classic since it began as a tournament in 1980
