June 19 Springfield Lanier helps kids through boxing

Assistant professor of human development coun- seling James Lanier, himself a former amateur boxer, is spending many of his evenings at the Brandon Community Center teaching eastside youths discipline through boxing in a program sponsored by the Springfield Housing Authority. Lanier has won several light-heavyweight titles in Florida and the Air Force, as well as five profes- sional and more than 80 amateur fights. He has sparred with Mohammed Ali and former light- heavyweight champion Bob Foster, and once wanted to be the heavyweight champion of the world. But that dream was cut short by an arm injury and now he enjoys being a trainer in the SHA program, because teaching children to box is one way of keeping them off the streets. "The kids learn more than boxing," Lanier said. "They learn discipline. The program is set up to work with problem children, runaways and delin- quents who have discipline problems. In boxing that's something they must overcome, because to James Lanier, SSU assistant professor of human development coun- seling and former light-heavyweight boxer, is dedicated to improving box you must be disciplined.

VOLUME8, NUMBER 9 NOVEMBER 5,7 979 Cajun group to perform

Louisiana musicians Dewey Balfa and His Cajun Friends will appear in concert Saturday, Nov. 17, at 8 p.m. in the SSU Cafeteria, the third program in the university's 1979-80 Entertainment Series. Balfa, a French-speaking native of Basile, La., learned to play the fiddle from his father. He and his friends have been commissioned by the National Endowment for the Humanities to travel worldwide, preserving and bringing to life traditional Acadian -or "Cajun" - music, much of which has never been written down. Accompanied by fiddle, guitar, accordion, and harmonica, their songs re-create the Cajun culture and focus on the historical development of Southern folk music, from slave songs and ballads, native American and French Creole music, and music of the black and white rural churches, to more contemporary work songs, the blues, and other songs of the 20th century. Tickets for the concert are $4 for nonstudents and $3 for students, and are available at Myers Brothers downtown store, all Roberts Brothers stores, lllinois National Bank, and the SSU Bursar's Office.

WSSR 92FM, Sangamon State's public radio station, will conduct its fall fund-raiser Nov. 7 to 13, focusing on the theme "Support the New Standard." The station's goal for the week-long event is $1 0,000. While the bulk of WSSR's funding comes from the university, yearly grants from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, and occasional federal grants, according to WSSR General Manager Robert Eastman the fund-raiser is an attempt to increase the level of support at the grass roots. "This will serve to keep public radio truly public," he said. Eastman added that public rad.io has "entered the satellite era," explaining that with WSSR's new satellite dish - expected to be operational in a few weeks -the station will receive four times the present amount of NPR programming, providing a greater diversity for listeners and at much better technical quality. "We feel we've come a long way from the days when we were called simply an alternative service," Eastman said. "Listener support is essential to maintain this level of excellence. That's why we're asking area listeners to help us celebrate the New Standard by pledging their financial support."

Liu, director of the Asian-American Mental Health Resources Center; Spanish-speaking Americans, represented by Jose La- Luz, professor of labor and industrial relations at Michigan State University; and persons with a different sexual orientation, represented by Rhonda Rivera, professor of law at Ohio State University. Registration for the lntersession will be held from 8 to 9 a.m. on Jan. 5 in the concourse of Brookens Library; enrollment is limited to 200.

Governor's seat on the i 976 Democratic ticket. Durbin and his nine companions (split evenly among Democrats and Republicans from throughout the US) went to the USSR in November as part of an exchange program sponsored by the American Council of Young Political Leaders under the auspices of the US State Department. In sharing his impressions of the country with members of the SSU community on March 25 in the Cox House Lounge, Durbin said the experience gave him "doubts about who they (the Soviets) are and what they want." He said he had been living with a "mind-set created in the McCarthy era." Now the Soviets were more "hu- manized" - not just something you read about but riever experience - explained Durbin, who vowed he would read news of the Soviet Union "under a different light" from now on.

Communication program presents Anouilh's Antigone

The modern version of Sophocles' Antigone - written by playwright Jean Anouilh and first staged in Paris at the end of the Nazi occupation - will be presented by the SSU Communication program on Friday and Saturday, April 25 and 26, at 8 p.m., and on Sunday, April 27, at 2 p.m. in J-149. Director Guy Romans, a native Parisian, decries what he perceives as our national ennui following America's numerous problems abroad. Antigone was specifically selected in the wake of what he views as international frustration. The story recounts the ancient Greek myth of Antigone, daughter of Oedipus and Jocasta, who - in defiance of her uncle, King Creon - performs burial rites for her dead brother and as a result is herself sentenced to be buried alive. In the play, Antigone decides to challenge the order of the world, knowing that she will be con- demned to die for her boldness. In the Paris of 1944, this aroused heated controversy because of the double aspect of myth and political satire. Anti- gone clearly symbolized the French Resistance. King Lori Berg as Antigone symbolizes youth and resistance while Regan Smith as Creon is the personification of Creon's motives were interpreted by some as an authority in Jean Anouilh's version of the Greek clas- approval of the Occupation and by others as a sic Antigone, to be staged at 8 p.m. at SSU on April 25 and veiled satire of it.

Present and future of universe is lecture subject

A slide-lecture on "The Present State and the Future of the Universe" will be presented by noted astronomer- astrophysicist Louis C. Green on Friday, May 2, at 8 p.m. in Brookens 333. Green's appearance was arranged by SSU observatory director Charles Schweighauser, through the cooperation of an anonymous donor and the Harlow Shapley Visiting Lectureships in Astronomy. "No other science has had 10 years such as astronomy has just gone through," says Green, "and it is not at all clear that the remarkable series of discoveries which marked the last decade is over." Green is professor emeritus at Haverford College. His distinguished career has included membership at the Institute of Physics and Astrophysics, Munich. He is active in research and continues to make contemporary developments in astronomy understandable to the pub- lic through talks centering on such celestial objects as quasars, pulsars, white dwarfs, and black holes. His appearance at SSU is free and open to the public. Louis C.

Thomas Fenton, a graduate student in political studies, was elected Sangamon State's student rep- resertative to the Illinois Board of Regents in a recent campus-wide election. Fenton will replace retiring student regent Kevin Rodgers. The 26-year- old Fenton received 59 percent of the vote in the three-way race for the post. "The university's students need an advocate on the Board of Regents," he said, pledging to do all he can to meet their needs. One of the first things he hopes to address during his one-year term on the BOR is state support for programs to enhance student life. He explained that while SSU offers fine academic opportunities, he feels there is a lack of facilities and programs necessary to attract students for the future. He added that he is concerned with the university's need to increase recreational facilities and facilities for teaching the natural sciences. Fenton has been active in Republican Party polit- ics in Illinois since 1976. He is a member of the Uni- versity Program Evaluation Committee and the Inter- collegiate Athletic and Recreation Committee. Fenton received the BA in sociology from Lenoir-Rhyne Col- lege in North Carolina in 1976.

The campus has not changed much in 63 years. There are no modern dormitories, no gymnasiums, no cafeterias, just a few weather-beaten ranch buildings and a 17,000 volume library that is open 24 hours a day. Deep Springs has pioneered in the movement to give students an administrative role in their schools. They decide which freshmen will be invited back for a second year, discipline those who break the rules, and help select the faculty. They also decide the curriculum. There are only two required courses: composition and public speak- ing. In addition, most students select three courses each term - a language, mathematics, and anoth- er traditional liberal arts course. Classes seldom have more than eight students.

In its seventh year, the Literature Program's Ver- bal Arts Festival brought Denise Levertov, 56, and Stephen Spender, 71, to Springfield to reaffirm our connections with the wide world beyond the corn- fields. Both Spender and Levertov are major poets of the language and of the century. Through the fellowship of their art both have ties with other ages and other cultures. They have visited the nations of the world, speaking their languages, translating their literature. Both have seen the century's tides wash over Eng- land and us all. They have lived through wars that seemed the end of time, survived, and have not forgotten what they saw. Spender and Levertov did not meet in Springfield. She - vital, intense, personal - performed public- ly, was a guest under polite siege at two social gatherings, and gave a seminar in poetics in less than 24 hours. Leaving her listeners in a ferment of sound and sense, Levertov was on to another college before Spender arrived.
