Men Of The Hour Communication Important ...

Southeastern's varsity I tennis team is busy these days. chalking up ~mpressive records against the mightiest teams in the Southwest. Our "'small college'' team ·s putting the bite on some pretty large uni- SCOPE Sponsors Seminar versities. .

For the past two years , SSC 's team has been ranked number two in the nation - an impressi~e achievement -which surt>ly makes them the top "small -college" team i.n the nation.

During Eas ter break th~ team traveled to Tulsa, for the Oral Roberts University tournament. l hey are the only small college team that has uer beea invited. Tbe ~ers were mat. bad against teams from Oral Roberts, the Unit~~ersllle~KaMas, Mtsaotri, Arbllsas, Middle Tea-aessee, Tulsa, Otlaboma Nortb T~xas Sbte.

These acbie~ments a e perhaps iinusnat. but tbey certainly are not anpr~tted. Southeaster~ has long been known throughout Oklahoma and the surrounding states for its tennis . ·

David Bryant, Mark Milligan, Dwight Nuckolls , Kimm Ketelsen, Phil Carter, Larry Hom and their coach, Clarence Dyer, are the men of the hour. Southeastern owe~ them its full support.

Teams B~nle (i)BU Bison In .OCC Baseball, Tennis

By GANN BURN~ The Southeas tern State! College

baseball and tennis team s travel to Shawnee Saturday for games

' with Oklahoma Baptist University. Both team s will begin their drives to take the Oklahoma C

1ollegiate

Conference crowns . The baseballers will begin a dou­

bleheader at 1 p.m. with tle Bison. Under ·the direction of cmcb ·or. Doo P:trham, the baseball team has jumped off to a 7 'l start, pending this week's outco111es wttb LaogstCIIl University and Cartil­age, Wiscoosio. Tbe Saqges thea, entertaf• East Ceatnl Tuesday ca the sse diamond, at 1 p.rq.

After the baseball teain S'Wept a doubleheader from Austin Col­(ege to start the seasoo, rain hit and wiped out the next four sched­uled games. But nevertheless, the Savages went on their annual Ar­kansas trip aod took three of four games. After two wins over the Universit¥ of Texas at Arlington, SSC's r;e cord increased to 7-1.

Eighteen Coeds Join Women's SportsClib

Eighteen coeds were initiated into the Women's Recreation As­sociation during Spring formal ini­tiation ceremonies Marcl 16 at Hickory Hollow.

New members includ~ Judy · Alcins , Barbara Banta, Eddye Ben­nett, Denise Bowen, Coleen Chad­wick, Clara Dillard, Checyl Hed­r i ck, J oy<:e Holloway, Donna House, ·Africa John, Pat Jones, LuJane Kitchens , Brenda !Little­horn, Debby McMillan, Bernice Roberts, Margie Rawls, Judy White and Oleta Wright.

During the Arkansas tr ip, Dr. ,Pa rham recorded the 100111 win of hi s career. It carne in the seco'nct game of the doubleheader with Ouachita University. Afte r the Sav­ages took the first game 3- 1 on Pavid Ward's nifty six-hitter, the Savages put Parham in the rec­ord book with a 2-1 win in the nightcap. The winning run came in the fourth inning when the Sav­' ges scored both their runs.

Ward led oU the inni.ng and was lit by a pitch. He advanced to sec­and as catcher David Robertson singled. Second baseman Gann Buras brought Ward home with a single to left fteld, and Robertson scored when the left fielder bob­bled tbe ball. Ouachita•s nm came GO a walk, stolen base and a sin­gle.

Secood baseman Gann Burns currently leads team bitting witha . 429 average. Then comes David Ward at .391 and Jerry Algeo with a .318 mark. Some are still having their hitting problems, but Coach Parham expects they will come aroUnd in time for the crucial con­ference games.

The Savage s, under the direction of coach Clarence Dyer, took their opening match of the Oral Roberts Invitational Tournament over Mis­souri University, 9-0. lnthesemi­finals they were defeated by ORU 8 -1. The finals were rained out and will be played April 18. SSC will meet Arkansas.

Mark Milligan suffered his first singles' loss of the seasonatORU. But he still leads the team in wins and bes t record. SSC's rec­ord mov~d to 7-2-1 on the year , and should just about prepare them for their drive to defend their OCC crown. ...... · ... ·. ·.· ................ · ..• · .. ·. ·.· .... · .... ~.· .· .· .... · ... --~· .. ·. ·••.·.· .. ·"'~······ .· ... · ...... · ... · ... •.· ... ·.·. ·. · ... ·. · ................... ·.· ... ·.·. · ... -.-....... ·.-.-.-.·

By JIM GILBREATH Ancil Jones, U.S. Department

of Interior and regional coordina­tor for SCOPE, spoke Tuesday, March 17, at the second seminar on pollution and environmental cootrol, SI)Oil~red locally by the SSC chapter ol SCOPE. Approxi­mately 80 ~e attended, repre­senting national and state control agencies, local governmental and health departments and interested citizens of Durant.

Jones told the group that com ­munication techniques are per ­haps the real problem in con­trolling pollution. " It's a mat ­ter of semantics ," he said, "everyone has a diUerent concept of pollution. " He also noted that few realize the importance of wat­er. " Americans are pre sently us­ing 360 billion gallons of water pe r day. By the year 2000, it is estimated that our dai ly needswi ll reach 800 billion;. and by the year 2020, we will need 1,300 billion.

our resour ces more effec tively. We must learn to reuse water again and again. Pollution inc reas ­es the cost of the water supply to the consumer. It kills aquatic life and provides the perfect environ­ment for disease • .,

INDUSTRY BIG PROBLEM Industrial wa.ste pollution is

seemingly the ti~st problem be­cause industry is the biggest user of water - demanding 54 per cent of the supply. Agriculture demands 32 per cent, and the remainder is consumed by domestic uses. Indus­trial pollution includes thermal wastes (super-heated water) which kill fish and also oils and metal poisons. Nitrates are the most dangerous agricultural waste.

J ones spoke of the national Wa­ter Quali ty Act passed in 1965 to set standa rds for contr olling water pollution and 'the environ­ment. In 1965, only $ 50 million was appropriated by the fede ral government to fight pollution. For the fiscal year 1970, $800 million has been appropriated.

It is dis tributed through grants to research foundations and to municipalities for building con­trol plants. He noted that the Rob­ert S. Kerr Research Fo~mdation in Ada is ooe of the finest in the oation. It serves as Oklahoma's fact- fiodiog ageocv.

The job of controlling pollution res ts with agencies of the in­dividual s tates. Federal agencies offer research assistance and leadership. Municipalities also must exercise a bigb degree ol cootrol. JODes stated that tbere la "clearty a lack ol enviroomental

Pollutioo cleanup be­gins at home- at the source of the problem. There is a greatneedfor individual concern, and we must all work hand-in-hand with state and federal agencies to control pollu­tion."

• At the conclusion of the semi-

nar, Dr. frank Wade, SSC biology professor , took the group on a tour of som e of the " more inter­e sting" pla ces in Durant, via color s lidf'!'> !:.lkE'n by the Biology De-

pa r tnH nt. T hey t ra ced the opera­tions of a local vegetable oil com ­pany in dumping wa s te down a hill­side east of D~rant, where it even­tually ran into Mineral Bayou.;The Bayou will eventually feed the 'Du­rant Reservoir near Wade. The s lides also depicted stockpiles of rusted autos, metal and open storm drains.

The next seminar is scheduled Friday, April Z4, which bas bee1a designated as a national day for .poUuUOD -..cauao.
