The defense came four pass up with two credinterceptions ited to John Hardy and one each tor Derrick Curtis and Jerry Brown." Marty Mendenhall was credited with an outstanding game as leader of the defense. The game saw the new defensive secondary of John Hardy, Derrick Curtis and Donald Speller do an excellent job. The first quarter was scoreless as Snow tried three unsuccessful field goals. Snow spent the full first quarter on the CEU half of the field, but the Badgers could not score.

Bicycle Racks Fill Up in Response to Energy Crunch by Lisa McComb With the energy crunch you wouldnt expect to see financially stumped students who are on a tight budget, waiting in line at the pumps. Or would you? More and more students are being seen in lines at the pumps as a direct result of the energy crisis. The prices are not high. In fact, just ask and ye shall receive. There is one catch these pumps arent your ordinary gas pumps. Theyre air pumps. That's right, they're air pumps for bicycles. Around Snow College bicycles are becoming more and more popular. The bike racks are filling up both at the dorms and around the campus buildings. They fill their job well. After all, how else can one get exercise, sight-see, experience weather changes, and get himself to school, in one simple action?

Alene Mcfarlane was sighted riding a bike and was asked if there was any particular reason why. She replied, Its easier than walking." Its quicker to ride back and forth from the activity center to the dorm, so I'm not late for my next class, remarked Sandy Remand. Also accompanying this newly rediscovered bicycle, is the obsolete backpack. Backpacks are in the process of replacing high-price- the brief case. Once one has tried to carry a brief case on the handlebars of a bike, he would soon come to know the reason why the backpack is a more sensible way to go- - Snow students were asked why they carried backpacks around school. Becky Gardner commented, I dont have time to run back to the dorm after every class for books; besides it makes you look more like Colleges Homecoming enthusiasm for the next days climax.

As a volleyball player he traveled to China, Eastern Europe, the Soviet Union, and America. Hideki joined the LDS Church when he was 17 years of age, later went on a mission for the Church. He began playing guitar when he was 16. When his brother and friends played he became fascinated. His interest soon became serious enough that he now has become an accomplished concert guitarist. Hideki came to Snow College last December. Here he teaches guitar to eight students and practices two to three hours per day. Now Hideki has four guitars of his own - one of which cost about $3,000. He likes to play and has been most gracious about accepting invitations to perform before groups who like to hear the guitar played well. ; of the program for seniors, said it will serve three purposes: health maintenance, recreation and socialization. It is intended to serve seniors who are very active physically as well as those who can participate in only minimal activity," Mrs. Larsen said. The program is intended for senior citizens of the entire area, she added. All they need to present is their senior citizen center membership cards. The open house will involve guided tours of the Activity Center, according to Mrs. Larsen, and those attending will also be able to participate in the senior nutritional program at the College Cafeteria at 12:30 p.m. that day providing they call in reservations in advance.

Our area has been spared the particular problems which confront some sparsely populated areas where only limited opportunities for employment, cultural activities, and comprehensive social services exist. Our community college represents an ideal catalyst for addressing the many lie in problems of rural life whose solutions may of and people. education development the Consistent with the purpose of this community of college is the initiation and implementation which enhance services programs and educational, economic, cultural, recreation, and civic development in our rural area during the critical years ahead. While the community college offers a special potential for meeting the complex needs of this its important segment of our culture, and while philosophy incorporates such a mission, a variety of problems and mitigating circumstances interfere with this role actualization. Some of the problems found by small colleges such as Snow in a rural setting, include problems of status and problems of competition within the higher education system and with larger, more Small rural prosperous peer institutions. institutions do not often have the same clout with legislative bodies and regulatory agencies at universities, four year colleges and their sister community junior colleges that the cities appear to have. In response to these problems, the Association of Community and Junior College and its Commission on Small Rural Community Colleges have identified five problems faced by community colleges. These problem areas are: 1) equal opportunity for the smallrural college; 2) financing the small college; 3) small colleges and accrediting agencies; 4) federal and state constraints on small programs; and 5) developing the literature and research support for a rural community college. Senior Citizens to Attend Open House Senior citizens from the area are invited to attend an open house at the t Snow College Activity Center on Nov. 8 from 10:30 a.m. to 12 noon that will serve to initiate a special program at the Center for seniors.

Snow College Program Assists International Students Among some 1,000 students currently attending Snow College this fall, there are 28 foreign students from 13 different countries. These students come from various places in the world such as Senegal, Ghana, Thailand, Jordan, Kuwait, Japan, Bolivia, and Indonesia. Many of these students are enrolled in the English Training Center for International Students (ETC). ETC is a language and culture program designed for international students who are eligible for college in the United States, but who lack sufficient skill in English to read, write, take notes and examinations at the college level. Students are instructed in basic English skills such as pronunciation, listening, reading, and writing. In addition, ETC offers subject which will help students to live and study at an American college how to use the library, the dictionary, take notes in class, take tests, and make friends and integrate into college social life. As a cultural program, ETC provides experiences which help students understand cultural any differences that might make their life as students difficult. In an effort to better meet the needs of these international students, ETC has organized a Host Family program. This program will aid in integrating the students into the community. The hospitality of Americans can provide a al view of Ameri- can life, can temper loneliness and overcome the isolation of the interfor the new campus national student. Most students complete ETC core courses in one or two quarters, after which they are better prepared academically and socially to pursue their major fields of study. It is our hope that citizens will take advantage of the opportunity to get to know these students. A relationship with an international student can be a mutually-rewardin- g experience, commented Mary Ann Christison, ETC director. These four Iranian students are studying at Snow College: Bahrain Khosropanah, Mehrdad Faezi, Nader Ghazanfari and Mansour Nejatifar. Volleyers Use Unique Warmup by Julie Zabriskie Snows girls volleyball team uses a unique method of warming up. Instead of working out in a quiet gym, the girls work out to g a song with a catchy beat. The method must be working. The songs have to be Findlay. This is the kind of growth that is healthy. It is steady growth and not something with a good beat in order to get the sporadic. When viewed in a historical adrenalin flowing and get perspective.

Snow F all Enrollment Up 14 Snow coed leaves her bicycle in rack after riding it to class. Enrollment at Snow College for fall quarter is up 14 percent over last year, according to Ross Findlay, assistant dean of students. Currently there are 1 125 students attending Snow College. Of these, 908 are freshmen and 217 are sophomores. This means that enrollment has increased 6 out of the last 7 years, said modares. Herb and and Fire. The only time the girls work out to music is right before a game and when the game is played on Snows home court. Thus the girls consider it a special treat to be able to warm up to music. No music is played at the everyday practices in order for the girls to be able to hear Coach Ann Bricker counsel them on plays and help with any problems the girls or team may be bavins. If you ever go to a girls volleyball game, you will also notice that when the girls break away from the huddle, they may use phrases such as: Check it out, or My Sharona. This helps the girls to think back on the warm-u- p time, which helps to get them excited all over again. Snows volleyball team is one of the only college teams to use this type of warm-uand it seems to be working out super for them. , p, |
