nag fully,clothed and blew out the tiny candle that had lit the tent.
The program that made mine and many other adventures possible started in 1974, with SUA funding. Because the rental pays for the care and maintenance of the mine, the Wilderness Discovery program is practically self-supporting now. Wee said.
The pack I rented for the hike was a Trailways frame pack. It showed quite a bit of use, the bottom of the pack had been patched three times and it was missing a

any fent also was not n fancy; when I awoke, the underside of it was covered with a thick layer of frost from the moisture of my breath.
THE SVEA one-burner stove fired up on the second try and soon water for oatmeal and hot chocolate was boiling. One water bottle had frozen during the night, leaving only half
the water supply. But five miles ahead, the trail lee to an artesian well where there was
After packing up the tent and sleeping bag, I started back on the trail, planning to reach the well by midday.
My pack weighed about 40 pounds when loaded with gear, most of it heavy clothing to fight off the cold.
The trail wound its way across dry riverbeds, up hills and down valleys. The tip of winter had frozen streams of water in fall and had stripped the trees lining the path.
The air was still and it seemed as if everything was dead, the stillness being broken occasionally by breathing and bird-calls.
The pack seemed to grow heavier with every step. Its stiff frame had curied my spine into a knot. Its shoulder straps pulled at my chest. The right shoulder strapped slipped often, and had to be pulled tight whenever I stopped for a rest.
SUA'S EQUIPMENT has withstood even adventures overseas, Wee said.
Although rentals usually decline in the winter, "On a weekend like Thankgiving it's hard."
I prepared my Thanksgiving dinner of hot macaroni and cheese when I finally reached the well. I had to boil the water to kill any bacteria.
The fuel bottle that came with the stove developed a leak after dinner and I lost a whole day's fuel. Instead of continuing with only enough fuel for one more meal, I decided to cut the hike short and backtrack to the parking lot.
I wondered if I could make it before darkness made the trail almost invisible.
I had 2 $ \frac{1}{2} $ miles to go when the sun had already begun to set. The forest was before it.
It was with some relief that I set foot on the paved surface of the trail's parking lot. I had hiked 11 miles that day and was tired and exhausted. I had accomplished something worthwhile.

Psychology

Solutions to the caller's problems cannot be in-depth, but can be helpful in other ways. See below.
"I don't think you can give analysis in such a short time," he said, "but it's all right to give some general information, such as where to get help."
The shows are commercially successful, he said, but the radio psychologists would not exploit the content or participants of the show to gain listenership.
"ONE WOULD hope the radio psychologist operates under the same code of ethics other psychologists do," he said. "If a radio show did not include such content, it would be in serious leach and ethical trouble."
Most American cities have at least one call-in show, and Snyder said the popularity of the show is due to its reach.
"The popularity of these shows comes from an interest people take in the lives of other people," he said. "It's like an Ann Landers column. The vast majority of the people who write her are
serious about getting solutions to their problems."
Richard Rundquist, director of University Counseling Center, said the popularity of radio psychology programs might have spring from a lack of people to admit a problem to another person.
"To some extent there's greater anonymity to it," he said. "People have trouble coming into a counseling center. Some people have responded to the telephone whereas they won't respond face to face. A telephone is more impersonal; in that sense the shows serve a useful service."
BEST PSYCHOLOGY by radio is too brief to be actual psychology, he said.
"I's certainly not counseling," he said. "It's asking an opinion from anybody I really care about."
Snyder said psychology's popularity in all forms of the media had grown immensely in the last decade.
"You can't pick up a magazine without seeing some sort of psychological analysis of something," he said. "Understanding human actions happens to be something that interests people."

to send to college each year. That decision often is made by tribal leaders.
He said students had to prove to their agencies that they had high grade point averages to receive funding last year. Students who demonstrated insufficient academic progress were out
RETHA MASQUAS, Shawnee, Oka, sophomore, said, "I have to keep a 2.0 average. If I get below that or stay out of school for a semester, I won't be funded again."
Jerry Jaeger, director of the education department of the national Bureau of Indian Affairs, said more students were applying to BIA for aid because many scholarships available from other federal agencies had fallen victim to budget cuts.
However, fewer students are receiving federal funds. Although the BIA budget has not been cut recently, it has not been increased to keep pace with inflation. Jaeger said.
Dave Bennett, acting financial aid officer, estimated that 75 percent to 80 percent of the students at Haskell relied on federal aid to meet
their living expenses, despite the low cost of attending classes there.
HASKELL HAD to discontinue participation in two federal aid programs for students this year because the school's financial aid staff was cut from six staff members to three, Bennett said.
These programs, College Work Study and the Supplemental Education Opportunity Grant, provide matching funds to students who work. The programs brought in $23,273 and $13,494 respectively to students at Haskell in 1975-76. Bennett said.
"We felt when we did we have the programs that there was too much paperwork involved and not enough money for students to warrant the paperwork," Bennett said. "The staff was overwhelmed by the problems with testing problems and the monitoring systems these programs require, we had to drop them."
"Now, we would like to try them again. Since the other budget cuts were made, we'd like to get it done."
ALTHOUGH EIGHT more students qualified for Basic Education Opportunity Grants this year than last year, Haskell students received
$20,424 less from that fund. Student need had not been reduced, but the money available to them was cut. Bennett said.
The Comprehensive Employment and Training Act, which provides the minimum wage to students for every hour that they attend class, brought $25.497 to Haskell students in 1977-78.
So many students participated in CETA that it was given its own representative on campus when the financial aid office could not handle the paperwork, Bennett said.
However, the representative is no longer necessary. The program provides money to only two Haskell students this year because the CETA budget was drastically reduced, said Rose McKinney, CETA Manpower development specialist.
Masquas said she came to Haskell because she had heard that the nursing program was good. However, the program was eliminated from the Haskell curriculum this semester.
GBP SAID that people who taught nursing classes probably could make better wages elsewhere, and that Haskell was unable to hire competent instructors.
The program was started without qualified teachers in key positions and to continue it would have been unfair to students who expected to be nurses if they needed to know to become nurses, he said.
When Haskell began experiencing financial problems last year, Gipp tried to avoid cutting costs.
Haskell's budget was reduced by $300,000 in the last fiscal year. Congress has not decided what the budget will be for this fiscal year, but it does include funds for the school would not be reduced again.
The federal funds given to Haskell are designated as either educational funds, which are used for teachers' salaries; the development of new programs and other academic expenses; facilities funds, which are used for maintenance of the buildings and grounds at the college.
THE EDUCATIONAL budget was reduced from $4.7 million to $4.4 million and the facilities budget was reduced from $1.5 million to $1.4 million. Gion said.
Congress waited until March to inform Gipp of
the reduction, although a fiscal year begins Oct. 1 and ends Sept. 30. Consequently, Gipp said, he has to return the funds to his employer.
"Our only option was to lessen our personnel allocations," Glipp said. "We so saved our dollars."
All Haskell employees were converted to furlough status this summer, which means that every employee will be required to take at least two weeks off each year without pay. Although Haskell employees filed a class-action suit in protest of their change in status, they are still classified as furlough-status employees, Gipp said.
To further reduce expenses, students and staff members were encouraged to conserve energy.
"LAST SPRING, the campus was blacked out. There weren't any lights on," Blissmith said. "Everybody in the halls had to turn their radio televisions, stereos and lights out at alarms."
During the night bedchecks, security monitors also checked to be sure that energy was stored in the battery.

JEALOUSY BREEDS CRITICISM
Have you ever noticed that if you don't have anything positive to say about yourself, you're only recourse is to try and knock the other guy?
We've recently announced a substantial increase in the amount of liquor we're pouring in our highballs. So, a competitor made a feeble attempt to belittle our solid image. Faddish bars will come and go, but Gammons will continue to be the best bar in town for conscientiously crazy young adults who recognize quality in the form of good service, great atmosphere, excellent drinks, fine food, the hottest current music, a superb sound system, and the best clientele.
When you're doing everything right, you don't need to take futile pot shots at your competition. So, we would like to take this opportunity to thank Moodys for the fine compliment. We're flattered that they perceive us as the best bar in town.Likewise, we're flattered that they copy everything we do.

WE'RE PROUD OF THE COMPANY WE KEEP We all use the same computer bar system.
WHY?
Because there is nothing worse than a bartender ruining (due to human error) what should be an excellent drink. We will stake our reputation on every drink we serve. You are guaranteed a strong, high quality, consistent drink every time you order. And, if you would like to see how this amazing system works, just ask MIKE or DOUG for a quick little tour. We'll be glad to remove any misconceptions you might have.
