nets claim salmon by Dwight PoffenbergeF Let me give you a pioce of advice. If you're hoaded north towards Michigan salmon fishing, stag home. This faU you'd be lucky to catch one fish a day. Far the rust time since 1970 rivcrs normally full o i coho and the early chinook salmon this time of year are experiencing extremely light mns. Clear gravel bars where saimon used to fm by the hundreds now are relatively banen. A river I have grown up fishing, the Crystal Rivcr in northcrn Michigan, did not have many sal. mon as uflate October. Normally thousands of mature coho salmon surge over a sand bar in the mouth of the Crystal early in September. Why didn't they this year? I think it's the Indians. Five or six years ago a federal district judge named Fox rulcd that the lndians still had their fishing rights according to an ancient treaty. Thc treaty did not specify how the lndians could and could not fish. Consequently, the lndians started fishing with large gill nets samctimes miles long. Gill nets are nets wilh holes small enough that when a fish swims into one the net catches undcr the fish's GUS, so the fish can't back out or go ahead. The fish dies soon afterwards. Of all the Great Lakes* f ~ hl&e , trout have been hurt the most by Indian's gill nets. Sincc lndians are not allowed to sell salmon commercially, they make their proiiu on lake trout. Right now the lake trout population that had takcn almost a decade to build up is almost all gone as a result. l have watched lndians load up a boat with lake trout in only a few feet of gill net. I m a pine miles of gill net. In my opinion, the Indians havc round a way to protit iram netting saimon ilthough it is illegal. With the help o i greedy white men thc Indians could have found a market for salmon. It wouldn't surprise me. The lndians are out to make as much nloncy as p o s siblc. They don't cart about sport fishing ar the future of the fxh. Same people are saying that the absence of salmon could be a mistake by thc Michigan Depart-

' Y y h l m' am f l h m Politics, art don't mix

When we were all little kids not long ago, the festivities surrounding Halloween were a long awaited pleasure. However, due to the irrevocable work of some very mentally sick person or people in Chicago, numerous youngsters' Halloweens were considerably marred. Because of the "Tylenol scare" many parents believed that their children's Halloween candy might also be laced with drugs and prohibited their youngsters from trick or treating. The fault, of course, lies directly with the person or persons who tampered with the Tylenol products. Indirectly, however, the fault lies with society. One can't hide from the fact that society produces and contains people of this warped nature. Wanton slayings have always occurred and always will. What then, can be done t o rectify this nasty, brutish problem our society so unfortunately possesses? Nothing. Stricter punishment for the guilty party will not curb such horrible deeds. Many unbalanced people do not rationalize and do not even consider the result of their actions. Mental institutions are not the answer as scores of deranged potential killers are frequently turned back into society. Society produces and contains such hapless individuals; this is a sad and pitiful fact we all must face. There are, however, a few positive things from this tragedy that we can be thankful for and learn from. First of all, public awareness of the Tylenol case will result in parents being more inclined t o check the candy their children receive. These increased candy checks may yield tampered items which might have normally gone unnoticed. Parents inspecting their children's candy may save the youngsters' lives and may in turn lead t o the apprehension of those demented few who taint the treats they give out.

North Central to evaluate high school North Central Evaluation (NCE), a national accrediting agency, will evaluate the high school November 9 tllru 11. Before the agency's visit, IH teachers and administrators will make a sclfevaluation. They will then compare U~cir own evaluation with the NCE's evaluation. According to Mrs. JoAnn Wund, NCE representatives will sit in classes and observe teaching methods and student behavior. In addition, they also plan to grade student exlra-curricular activities. The purpose of NCE, according to Mr. Gary Gellert, is to make suggcstions on improving academic and social conditions.

by John Bergman Several weeks ago, jazz-great Ray Charles played a concert in New York City. Charles attracted a great crowd of music lovers, as usual, and he provided an excellent show. There was, howcver, more going on at the jazz d u b than the show done. A fairly sizable group of angry citizens demonstrated outside of the club, in protest of the fact that Ray Charles had performed in the much publicized, highly controversial country, South Africa. They were of the opinion that Charles had made a political statement with his performance in favor of the South African government. All of this brings an interesting issue to mind, "Where does one draw the line between being public and being political? Do well-known artists, entertab* pi, authors, ete. have political responsibilities, even if their work is essentially nonpolitical?" Some, perhaps the majority, would answer the above question positively. They would point Out that people who have become very famous in their field yield a tremendous amount o l power, a power which goes far beyond their actual work. Singers, for cxample, are often as famous as the leading political representatives of any issue, and the same can be said for other artists, as well. They have made it to where they are because many people respcct and admire them, and they have a tremendous responsibilily to serve those

people. The serving certainly does not have to be carried out in Congress or any other political arena, but artists should be held responsible for any and all statements that can be construed lrom their art. As I see it, the artist, while he has certain obligations and responsibilities to his public, is not, and should never become, a political spokesman. The world of politics and that of art are completely divergent in nature and in purpose. Politics is a world of motives, intrigue, and competition. Art is a world in which beauty exists far beauty's sake, and each inhabitant is as good as his last creation. The songs that Ray Charles sings are not activist or radical. In fact, it would be quite hard to pull any underlying statement lrom his songs. People go to his concerts and buy his records because he is a great musician and showman. If Charles tried to politically please dl of the members of his audience, he would not have a chance to play anywhere nor would we have the chance to hear him. The true responsibility of Ray Charles is to satisfy his public with the artistic excellence he has come to represent. And that is the basis upon which he should be judged! If he should later decide that he wishes to make a political statement, then certainly he will do so, but let him be the one to tell us that is, in fact, what he is doing. When one tries to turn that which is supposed to be art, into sometl~ing which has great political meaning, he distorts the underlying truth of its prolound beauty. Let Ray Charles and all others like him perform where they will. Let them be judged on their artistic ability. If they have something political to say, let i t be judged on its own value, but don't ever allow the art and the politics to mix! Groome.

Braves looking for 5-5 against Anderson by Kurt Dusterbag The Braves have a chance to break even for the season tomorrow night when they take a 4-5 lecord to Anderson at 8:00 p.m. This game has no bearing on league statistics, but Coach Gene Brindise says fans should not expect any surprises, just hard-nosed football. He characterizes Anderson as "'an excellent passing team that played a tough schedule" d e spite a 3 6 record. 'We've got a lot to play for," Brindise said. "I think the seniors are playing for pride, and everyone wants to give us momentum for the Greenhills game." Brindise was speaking of next year's opener some 4 2 weeks from now. Brindise also hopes to play some players tomorrow night who have seen little d o n this year, but whether they see action 'W be dictated by the sihlation of the game." The Braves snapped a five game tdhpin in a big was last week when they crushed the Milford Eagles, 38-20.

The combined factors of timely passing effectiveness and a sound Nnning game were the reasons Indian Hill fared so well. The touchdowns were scored by Kevin Viax, who had two, and Mike Wentz. However, Gary Hallam had the best day, rushing for over 100 yards. His performance led assistant coach Woodward to say, 'Gary ~eallycarried the mail today.'' The B~aves fust drive prompted parent George Seremetis to comment, "It was like watching Woodie Hayes' teams; six, seven yards and a cloud of dust." Wentz threw well t o his favorite targets Tom Wilson and Jim Gmskin, bath making key first down catches throughout the game.

Secondly, the adminisha. tion hopes students will have more pride in their lockers and take better care of them if they know they will have them for as long as they are in high school. Smith is quick to point out that as enrollment declines, less desirable locken wiU be left empty as students with I d e m i n the back portions of the hallways will move t o a more central location.

Century Three also recognized Bi Skidmore and Paul Smith as alternates. Cox is now eligible for a $1,500 scholarship if he wins at the state level. Century III was developed by the National Association of Secondary School Principals and is sponsored by the Shell Oil Company. Cox's recognition was based on activities, honors, an essay, and a current events quiz. All a p plicants were asked t o write an essay concerning an issue "America will face in its third century." Cox's essay dealt with personal leadership which, he feels, will be required for our government t o "succeed, thrive, and be maintained." The award is also based on students' past awards and aotivities. Cox won several awards this last year. Among these. he won

movie review

'Fantasia' not average Disney film -

by Richard Stradling W e are several reasons why the average Indian Hill student would not want to see Fantask The first two are simple: it's a G-rated Walt Disney f i . It is neither fashionable nor, as with most Disney movies, entertaining for the adolescents of IH to see a Grated Disney &. Something more mature like Halloween III would probably he better. The third reason is the content of the movie. In a sentence, Fantosin is classical music put to animated hackmounds and images. Still interested? Originally recorded and produced in 1937, Fonfnsio has been around for a number of years, hut still remains one of the few, if not the only, movie of its kind. This re-released version features a new digital-Dolby soundtrack and supposedly a better synchronizing of sound and action. The movie draws heavily from the late Romantic to earlv modern peiod of classical music, and consequently doesn't serve as a balaneed introduction to classical music for the beginner nor as a complete cross section for the connoisseur. m e fdm opens with one of the few non-Romantic nieces. a fugue by Bach. The animation takes the form of abstract images rather than canying a concrete story line. Later pieces like Stravinsky's "Rite of Spring" or Dukas' "Soremer's Apprentice" are coupled with concrete animated images that create a story. Still others like Tchaikavsky's "Nutcracker Suite" are shown with concrete images that

played to animated images is a t the very least interesting. By the way, if you're hoping to see a lot of Mickey Mouse in Fantasia, you might as well stay home. Disney's favorite rodent, the only Disney charact~x to appear in the f i , perfornis for only ten minutes or so as the sorcerer's apprentice. But, I might add, it's Mickey at his best. Unlike most Disney mms, Fantash is not necessarily geared towards children, but classical music lovers of all ages. Just Wring classical music doesn't guarantee youll thoroughly enjoy the f i , however. In essence, Fantasw seems to hit everyone a bit differently. If you have or are trying t o cultivate an interest in classical music, Fontosio is worth your while if only t o see music as it has never been presented before or since. Th. Thinker

Shrovt 'not a politician' in congressional by Nancy Hopple '9'm not a politician. I want to be a representative." This statement by Charles K. Shrout, Jr., a 1914 graduate of Indian Hill Hig h School, typifies his e n t k . philosophy and approach in his recent campaign for election to the U.S. Congress. Although he was defeated by incumbent Republican Bill Gradison in last Tuesday's election, Libertarian candidate Sh~out represented some 2979 voters in Hamilton, Clermont, and Brown Counties, a percentage of 2.63. Shrout's campaign, managed by 1975 Madeira High School graduate Pamela Miller, was funded mainly by his own money. Reflecting his disUke for the "political" and those who "go along to get along," Shrout refused many contributions from organizations whose interests did not lie in this dismct or whose motives were to gain political favors and support. Shrout's refusal to "'go along t o get along" is evident as far back as his high school career at Indian Itill, where he refused t o get a haircut in order to try out for or join several athletic teams He did, however, play on IH's baseball team. During his senior year Shout was managing editor of Chiefron and was also one of the miters for Nothing Sacred, an underground paper published by several Chieftain staff members which dealt with controversial topics such as the dress code, the hair cut issue, and the administration's and faculty's authority over students. After graduating from Indii Hill, Shrout went an to study at the University of Cincinnati, where he received degrees in English and history, and minors in philosophy and political science. He is currently working toward an advanced degree in history at UC. Shrout describes himself as an "fmstmctured person who is n Libertarian," or literally, "a person of liberty." Reflectinghis 'bunstrueinred" nature, Shrout is redstered as an independent voter and does not believe in voting straight party. Although be ran as a Uberiadan candidate, Shrout is not a purist in the Libertadan pasty, disagreeing with some of the party'sviews and not cammitting himself indefinitely t o the Party. In general terms, the views of the Libertarian party are based on

me Constitution.

libertarians, feeling that government has deviated from the ori@al intent of the Constitution, wish to cut excessive government regualtion and bureaucracy and to restore

Shrout, one of the main intents of the libertarian party is to "get government off the individuals' backs, cut the bu~eaucracy,and in turn cut taxes." S h o u t is in favor of a plan t o reduce the individual's tax-burden by eliminating governmental competition with private enterprise. Through this plan, inefGcient government agencies would be limited in their scopes or abolished altogether, and p d vate enterprise would provide the seMces govemment once did. This would decrease the amount of money needed t o mn the government, thus reducing taxes. Furthermore, both corporations and individuals would save money normally paid in high taxes. This would allow corporations to expand, creating more job opportunities, and allow individuals to purchase more goods and services, increasing the circulation of money through the economy. Shout maintains that tax dollars are now going to government agencies competing with a private sector which wuld provide the same services much more efficiently. As an example he cited the fact that the government spends 2.75 times more to pick up garbage than would private enterprise. Another example he cited is the efficiency of the privately run United Parcel Service as compared to the inefficiency of the U.S. Post Office. S h o u t stated, ' n o business

bid

would run itself as government does because it wouldn't stay in businesslong." In the area of Social Security, Shrout advocates a change from government control to control by private enterprise. According to Shrout, the Social Security System, now 'hopelessly in debt," must bonow two billion dollars from other government agencies in order to meet November commitments. S h o u t rnaintains that each individual can better determine bow to provide for his future than such a 'mis managed" government agency. He proposes that an i n d ~ d u a l should be able to "save for himselP' through an alternative pc tirement plan offered by the h dividual's wmpany, insurance company, or bank. Shrout, and all Libertarians in ~eneral.o ~ ~ o the s e cunent arbiGary intenoing policy of the courts regarding convicted criminals. Shout oalls for determinate sentencing of the convicted, whereby cdminals would have t o serve their fun sentences. By making the sentence manditory, Shrout feels that criminals could be deterred in the knowledge that they could not go free on a reduced sentence. S h o u t also feels that felons and repeat offenders should not be eligible for parole and that h i n d s should make restitution to the victims of their aimes. Libertarians are also opposed to closed shops, or vnion shops, in which employees of a business or industrial establishment are requited to join a union. Shrout feels that businesses should not have union workers 'Yorced" on them and that workers should not be "excluded from jobs" because they do not wish to join a union. Another issue which Libettarians oppose is the draft. Libertarians view the draft as impressment against ane*s will. Shrout's personal view is that in war, people who do not believe in the cause would not make adequate soldiers, and should therefore be allowed exemption. A major concern of Shrout is the ' k a y that government has usurped individual rights over the ages," changing from a representative form, the original intent of the Constitution, t o a political form. He cited the recent election as an example of the way government bas become purely political. Shont claims that if

Gradison were truly interested in representing the pwple 'Be would have taken the opportunity I offered to have question and answer forums in communities throughout the second district." S h o u t also claims that if Safer, the o r i h a l Democratic candidate, were truly interested in the representative form of government, 'Be would have stayed on the ballot" Safer dropped out because of lack of support. Bill Luttmer replaced him as the Democratic candidate, running for the most part "a paper eandidacy." Shrout went on to say that in a representative form of government "the more voices you have the more representative i t will be. You will let the other parties know that if somebody is voting for me, they're either voting for me because they like my issues or because they don't like wimt the other two parties are doing. What we're out t o do is to make a dent in the traditional political parties by offering people an altomative." Shrout pointed out, however, that in 47 states it is "nearly legally impossible" for a third party t o get on the ballot because of petition restrictions. Shrout is also concerned with informing the public on his views On and registering voters. October 28 be spoke to several government classs at Indian W. &out commented, '1 do feel strongly about pwple getting out t o vote, but I fee1 even more strongly that they vote in an educated way and that's one reason that I'm out speaking t o high schools." As well as informing voters, Shrout registered approximately seventy voters during his campaign. Spending less than $500 and receiving 2019 votes in Hamilton County, 575 in Clermont, aod 385 in B r o m County, S h o u t felt that be accomplished what he set out to do 'Sn the sense that I got my name around." Shout added that with $250 more he "would have been able to saluratc Brown County with radio commercials." possibly tripling or qrwdrupling the votes there, which tended t o be straight party. As for the future, Shrout stated that be will probably run for city council next year. In considering the "greater good"he could do by "going for the same principles" under another p-. Shrout said, "If I can seek the same position with another party, I may go with one of the other major parties:'

Brindise more than just a coach by Jonathan Groome, In just two short years, Mr. Gene Brindise has become one of the most familiar and influential faces at Indian Hill. Whether in the cbsroom or on the foatball field, his charismatic presence is always felt. Brindise was born and raised in Rochester, New York. He gaduated from high school in Rochester where he played footbail and baseball. After hi& school he attended oreh head, Miami, and Wright State Universities. Brindise took over the reins of a s a g a g football program at the W. He states that "the greatest challenge for a man is to build something from nothing. I'd like to turn this program around into one everyone can be proud of." To most people pride is just a word, but to Gene Brindise it is a way of life. Brindise feels that the lessons and character gained fram football have a lasting impact on a player's life. Two of these qualities pointed out by Brindise are "pride in what you're doinp" . and the "ability ta come back fram adversity.'' Brindise states, '%nlife, people have to deal with adversity a l l the time. I brlicve football prepdrrs one for lhnt." I;ew pcuple know thc gamc 01 iootbdl st well 8.; Ilrindise. Fvrr

Everybody's hurtin' with this horoscope by Kurt Dusterberg I'm still waiting. For years no*, my horosco~e has promised me calls from forgotten friends, new job opportunities, changes of scenery, and romances that are '.both rewarding and fulffing." Well, I'm getting tired of waiting. You know and I know that horoscopes are always wrong. You will get suspended from school, beat up in a fight and arrested for vehicular homicide, and then kind out your horoscope said, "Take time out from your work to repay a social obligation at lunch." Jeane Dixon, I believe, is no more capable of predicting your problems than I am. Every zodiac siw has character haits, and with that in mind, she figures whether

home, but I believe that when you can't put in a lot of quantity in time, the time that you do spend must be quality." Bdndise's schedule is indeed busy with his biology classes, his yearround foatball program and JV tennis in the spring. Another side of Brindise which is indeed seen by many students is his sense of humor. He is often heard jokingly telling a player that he has "post" (practice) or many times not jokindy. Brindise can joke around with his players as if they were his o m teammates but still keeps his fatherly image. He has had the pleasure of hearing jokes, for example, abont Barry Knabe's tonsils or what Kriss Ashing plans to obtain on a given evening after a summer "two-aday" practice session. Coach just leans back and smiles at the cringjng player and says "Post" or makes a comment of his own about certain 'Yhihings" when he hears anch jokes. Brindise has shown he is a man of devotion to the well-being of his students. Ilis sensitivity for "the man upstairs" and his founding the Fellowship of Chrhtian Athletes at Indian Hill brings another dimension to school life which has been overlooked for same time now. Indian Hill owes a lot to Brindise for bringing the school spirit back to life and his other contdbutions. Unfortunately, there are not too many men around like Coach Gene Brindise anymore. ber 21): immature, pompous, insecure. Flattery can do wonders, but you are probably beyond hope.

Brindise more than just a coach by Jonathan Groome, In just two short years, Mr. Gene Brindise has become one of the most familiar and influential faces at Indian Hill. Whether in the cbsroom or on the foatball field, his charismatic presence is always felt. Brindise was born and raised in Rochester, New York. He gaduated from high school in Rochester where he played footbail and baseball. After hi& school he attended oreh head, Miami, and Wright State Universities. Brindise took over the reins of a s a g a g football program at the W. He states that "the greatest challenge for a man is to build something from nothing. I'd like to turn this program around into one everyone can be proud of." To most people pride is just a word, but to Gene Brindise it is a way of life. Brindise feels that the lessons and character gained fram football have a lasting impact on a player's life. Two of these qualities pointed out by Brindise are "pride in what you're doinp" . and the "ability ta come back fram adversity.'' Brindise states, '%nlife, people have to deal with adversity a l l the time. I brlicve football prepdrrs one for lhnt." I;ew pcuple know thc gamc 01 iootbdl st well 8.; Ilrindise. Fvrr

Although Brindise is known for his strictly trained, ten o'clock curfewed, and post practiced football teams, he has a softer side that most students do not see. He is a loving husband and

father of two sons and a daughter. Brindise says that 'my prafession of teaching and coaching does not leave a lot of time for

horoscope

Everybody's hurtin' with this horoscope by Kurt Dusterberg I'm still waiting. For years no*, my horosco~e has promised me calls from forgotten friends, new job opportunities, changes of scenery, and romances that are '.both rewarding and fulffing." Well, I'm getting tired of waiting. You know and I know that horoscopes are always wrong. You will get suspended from school, beat up in a fight and arrested for vehicular homicide, and then kind out your horoscope said, "Take time out from your work to repay a social obligation at lunch." Jeane Dixon, I believe, is no more capable of predicting your problems than I am. Every zodiac siw has character haits, and with that in mind, she figures whether

or not i t is a good day for a Capricorn to attend business workshops. Let's get real, Jeane. It's time to put an end to this foolishness. Now try i t my way. There is no basis for any of the following characteristics or comments; they are simply im~ulsive,psychic brainwaves whatever bs comes to mind fust. Any characteristics or predictions bearing any meaningtul connection to any individual are purely unintentional or on purpose. Aries (March 21 - April 19): naive, uncaring, and picky. Do a favor for someone less fortunate than yourself join Legend. Taurus (April 20 - May 20): self-centered, dull and arrogant. The opposite sex r i d s you quite uninteresting in matters of romance.

.. .

Gemini (May 21 - June 20): cold, scatter-brained, and unbearable. Money could he the root of all your problems. Hold up a King Kwik. Cancer (June 21 - 3uly 22): heap, irrational and wimpy. Fall victim to peer pressure and let others make decisions for you. Leo (July 23 - August 22): lazy, ~ynieal and snotty. Spend the afternoon on the receiving end of a lecture by hlr. GeUert on insubordinate behavior. Virgo (August 22 - September 22): dense, childish, and spacey. Don't hold on to false dreams. Quit high school and get a job. b i r a (September 23 -October 22): selfish, boring and moody. You place too much emphasis on appearance. Don't wear clothes. Smxpio (October 23 - Novem-

home, but I believe that when you can't put in a lot of quantity in time, the time that you do spend must be quality." Bdndise's schedule is indeed busy with his biology classes, his yearround foatball program and JV tennis in the spring. Another side of Brindise which is indeed seen by many students is his sense of humor. He is often heard jokingly telling a player that he has "post" (practice) or many times not jokindy. Brindise can joke around with his players as if they were his o m teammates but still keeps his fatherly image. He has had the pleasure of hearing jokes, for example, abont Barry Knabe's tonsils or what Kriss Ashing plans to obtain on a given evening after a summer "two-aday" practice session. Coach just leans back and smiles at the cringjng player and says "Post" or makes a comment of his own about certain 'Yhihings" when he hears anch jokes. Brindise has shown he is a man of devotion to the well-being of his students. Ilis sensitivity for "the man upstairs" and his founding the Fellowship of Chrhtian Athletes at Indian Hill brings another dimension to school life which has been overlooked for same time now. Indian Hill owes a lot to Brindise for bringing the school spirit back to life and his other contdbutions. Unfortunately, there are not too many men around like Coach Gene Brindise anymore. ber 21): immature, pompous, insecure. Flattery can do wonders, but you are probably beyond hope. Sagittarius (November 22 December 21): unfriendly, indifferent, and irritable. Try some'bing new today. Eat Purina goat chow with Thousand Island dressing. Capricorn (December 21 January 19): cowardly, negative, unreliable. You need time t o yourself. Lock yourself in a closet without food or drink. Aqupuarius (January 20 - FebNary 18): hostile, judgemental, stupid. Be d e f i t today. Do not attend any of your academic classes. P i a s (February 1 9 - March 20): egotistical, masters of bs, omniscient. Failure is inevitable, Pisces. It's only fair since you guys are such saps. See also Taurus.

Shrovt 'not a politician' in congressional by Nancy Hopple '9'm not a politician. I want to be a representative." This statement by Charles K. Shrout, Jr., a 1914 graduate of Indian Hill Hig h School, typifies his e n t k . philosophy and approach in his recent campaign for election to the U.S. Congress. Although he was defeated by incumbent Republican Bill Gradison in last Tuesday's election, Libertarian candidate Sh~out represented some 2979 voters in Hamilton, Clermont, and Brown Counties, a percentage of 2.63. Shrout's campaign, managed by 1975 Madeira High School graduate Pamela Miller, was funded mainly by his own money. Reflecting his disUke for the "political" and those who "go along to get along," Shrout refused many contributions from organizations whose interests did not lie in this dismct or whose motives were to gain political favors and support. Shrout's refusal to "'go along t o get along" is evident as far back as his high school career at Indian Itill, where he refused t o get a haircut in order to try out for or join several athletic teams He did, however, play on IH's baseball team. During his senior year Shout was managing editor of Chiefron and was also one of the miters for Nothing Sacred, an underground paper published by several Chieftain staff members which dealt with controversial topics such as the dress code, the hair cut issue, and the administration's and faculty's authority over students. After graduating from Indii Hill, Shrout went an to study at the University of Cincinnati, where he received degrees in English and history, and minors in philosophy and political science. He is currently working toward an advanced degree in history at UC. Shrout describes himself as an "fmstmctured person who is n Libertarian," or literally, "a person of liberty." Reflectinghis 'bunstrueinred" nature, Shrout is redstered as an independent voter and does not believe in voting straight party. Although be ran as a Uberiadan candidate, Shrout is not a purist in the Libertadan pasty, disagreeing with some of the party'sviews and not cammitting himself indefinitely t o the Party. In general terms, the views of the Libertarian party are based on

me Constitution.

libertarians, feeling that government has deviated from the ori@al intent of the Constitution, wish to cut excessive government regualtion and bureaucracy and to restore

Shrout, one of the main intents of the libertarian party is to "get government off the individuals' backs, cut the bu~eaucracy,and in turn cut taxes." S h o u t is in favor of a plan t o reduce the individual's tax-burden by eliminating governmental competition with private enterprise. Through this plan, inefGcient government agencies would be limited in their scopes or abolished altogether, and p d vate enterprise would provide the seMces govemment once did. This would decrease the amount of money needed t o mn the government, thus reducing taxes. Furthermore, both corporations and individuals would save money normally paid in high taxes. This would allow corporations to expand, creating more job opportunities, and allow individuals to purchase more goods and services, increasing the circulation of money through the economy. Shout maintains that tax dollars are now going to government agencies competing with a private sector which wuld provide the same services much more efficiently. As an example he cited the fact that the government spends 2.75 times more to pick up garbage than would private enterprise. Another example he cited is the efficiency of the privately run United Parcel Service as compared to the inefficiency of the U.S. Post Office. S h o u t stated, ' n o business

bid

would run itself as government does because it wouldn't stay in businesslong." In the area of Social Security, Shrout advocates a change from government control to control by private enterprise. According to Shrout, the Social Security System, now 'hopelessly in debt," must bonow two billion dollars from other government agencies in order to meet November commitments. S h o u t rnaintains that each individual can better determine bow to provide for his future than such a 'mis managed" government agency. He proposes that an i n d ~ d u a l should be able to "save for himselP' through an alternative pc tirement plan offered by the h dividual's wmpany, insurance company, or bank. Shrout, and all Libertarians in ~eneral.o ~ ~ o the s e cunent arbiGary intenoing policy of the courts regarding convicted criminals. Shout oalls for determinate sentencing of the convicted, whereby cdminals would have t o serve their fun sentences. By making the sentence manditory, Shrout feels that criminals could be deterred in the knowledge that they could not go free on a reduced sentence. S h o u t also feels that felons and repeat offenders should not be eligible for parole and that h i n d s should make restitution to the victims of their aimes. Libertarians are also opposed to closed shops, or vnion shops, in which employees of a business or industrial establishment are requited to join a union. Shrout feels that businesses should not have union workers 'Yorced" on them and that workers should not be "excluded from jobs" because they do not wish to join a union. Another issue which Libettarians oppose is the draft. Libertarians view the draft as impressment against ane*s will. Shrout's personal view is that in war, people who do not believe in the cause would not make adequate soldiers, and should therefore be allowed exemption. A major concern of Shrout is the ' k a y that government has usurped individual rights over the ages," changing from a representative form, the original intent of the Constitution, t o a political form. He cited the recent election as an example of the way government bas become purely political. Shont claims that if

Gradison were truly interested in representing the pwple 'Be would have taken the opportunity I offered to have question and answer forums in communities throughout the second district." S h o u t also claims that if Safer, the o r i h a l Democratic candidate, were truly interested in the representative form of government, 'Be would have stayed on the ballot" Safer dropped out because of lack of support. Bill Luttmer replaced him as the Democratic candidate, running for the most part "a paper eandidacy." Shrout went on to say that in a representative form of government "the more voices you have the more representative i t will be. You will let the other parties know that if somebody is voting for me, they're either voting for me because they like my issues or because they don't like wimt the other two parties are doing. What we're out t o do is to make a dent in the traditional political parties by offering people an altomative." Shrout pointed out, however, that in 47 states it is "nearly legally impossible" for a third party t o get on the ballot because of petition restrictions. Shrout is also concerned with informing the public on his views On and registering voters. October 28 be spoke to several government classs at Indian W. &out commented, '1 do feel strongly about pwple getting out t o vote, but I fee1 even more strongly that they vote in an educated way and that's one reason that I'm out speaking t o high schools." As well as informing voters, Shrout registered approximately seventy voters during his campaign. Spending less than $500 and receiving 2019 votes in Hamilton County, 575 in Clermont, aod 385 in B r o m County, S h o u t felt that be accomplished what he set out to do 'Sn the sense that I got my name around." Shout added that with $250 more he "would have been able to saluratc Brown County with radio commercials." possibly tripling or qrwdrupling the votes there, which tended t o be straight party. As for the future, Shrout stated that be will probably run for city council next year. In considering the "greater good"he could do by "going for the same principles" under another p-. Shrout said, "If I can seek the same position with another party, I may go with one of the other major parties:'

movie review

'Fantasia' not average Disney film -

by Richard Stradling W e are several reasons why the average Indian Hill student would not want to see Fantask The first two are simple: it's a G-rated Walt Disney f i . It is neither fashionable nor, as with most Disney movies, entertaining for the adolescents of IH to see a Grated Disney &. Something more mature like Halloween III would probably he better. The third reason is the content of the movie. In a sentence, Fantosin is classical music put to animated hackmounds and images. Still interested? Originally recorded and produced in 1937, Fonfnsio has been around for a number of years, hut still remains one of the few, if not the only, movie of its kind. This re-released version features a new digital-Dolby soundtrack and supposedly a better synchronizing of sound and action. The movie draws heavily from the late Romantic to earlv modern peiod of classical music, and consequently doesn't serve as a balaneed introduction to classical music for the beginner nor as a complete cross section for the connoisseur. m e fdm opens with one of the few non-Romantic nieces. a fugue by Bach. The animation takes the form of abstract images rather than canying a concrete story line. Later pieces like Stravinsky's "Rite of Spring" or Dukas' "Soremer's Apprentice" are coupled with concrete animated images that create a story. Still others like Tchaikavsky's "Nutcracker Suite" are shown with concrete images that

Disney's favorite rodent, the only Disney charact~x to appear in the f i , perfornis for only ten minutes or so as the sorcerer's apprentice. But, I might add, it's Mickey at his best.

Just Wring classical music doesn't guarantee youll thoroughly enjoy the f i , however. In essence, Fantasw seems to hit everyone a bit differently. If you have or are trying t o cultivate an interest in classical music, Fontosio is worth your while if only t o see music as it has never been presented before or since. Th. Thinker

Fullback standout Greg Morris said,'We started brin&g our rullbacks up and the rorwards and halfbacks did a good job of keeping it up there.'' Thc halr ended a 1-1 stalemate.

The exchange committee has been a bit disappointed with the turnout for their various exchanges. Only fwe people are slated for the November ninth exchange with Ursuline.

The junior class is preparing for the basketball cancessions coming up this winter. Underclassmen who are nnhappy with their locker location and do not want to have their present locker for the duration of their high school careers will just

have to tolerate it. Mrs Smith sights two main reasons why these lockers are to be assigned just once. Firstly, it takes days t o reassign and change the locks, and b y eliminating these tasks, a great deal of work and aggravation are saved. Secondly, the adminisha. tion hopes students will have more pride in their lockers and take better care of them if they know they will have them for as long as they are in high school. Smith is quick to point out that as enrollment declines, less desirable locken wiU be left empty as students with I d e m i n the back portions of the hallways will move t o a more central location. She adds that if problems due t o height, etc., crop up, they will be dealt with on an individual basis. Sincerely, Todd Cox and Richard Stladliog

' Y y h l m' am f l h m Politics, art don't mix

When we were all little kids not long ago, the festivities surrounding Halloween were a long awaited pleasure. However, due to the irrevocable work of some very mentally sick person or people in Chicago, numerous youngsters' Halloweens were considerably marred. Because of the "Tylenol scare" many parents believed that their children's Halloween candy might also be laced with drugs and prohibited their youngsters from trick or treating. The fault, of course, lies directly with the person or persons who tampered with the Tylenol products. Indirectly, however, the fault lies with society. One can't hide from the fact that society produces and contains people of this warped nature. Wanton slayings have always occurred and always will. What then, can be done t o rectify this nasty, brutish problem our society so unfortunately possesses? Nothing. Stricter punishment for the guilty party will not curb such horrible deeds. Many unbalanced people do not rationalize and do not even consider the result of their actions. Mental institutions are not the answer as scores of deranged potential killers are frequently turned back into society. Society produces and contains such hapless individuals; this is a sad and pitiful fact we all must face. There are, however, a few positive things from this tragedy that we can be thankful for and learn from. First of all, public awareness of the Tylenol case will result in parents being more inclined t o check the candy their children receive. These increased candy checks may yield tampered items which might have normally gone unnoticed. Parents inspecting their children's candy may save the youngsters' lives and may in turn lead t o the apprehension of those demented few who taint the treats they give out.

North Central to evaluate high school North Central Evaluation (NCE), a national accrediting agency, will evaluate the high school November 9 tllru 11. Before the agency's visit, IH teachers and administrators will make a sclfevaluation. They will then compare U~cir own evaluation with the NCE's evaluation. According to Mrs. JoAnn Wund, NCE representatives will sit in classes and observe teaching methods and student behavior. In addition, they also plan to grade student exlra-curricular activities. The purpose of NCE, according to Mr. Gary Gellert, is to make suggcstions on improving academic and social conditions.

by John Bergman Several weeks ago, jazz-great Ray Charles played a concert in New York City. Charles attracted a great crowd of music lovers, as usual, and he provided an excellent show. There was, howcver, more going on at the jazz d u b than the show done. A fairly sizable group of angry citizens demonstrated outside of the club, in protest of the fact that Ray Charles had performed in the much publicized, highly controversial country, South Africa. They were of the opinion that Charles had made a political statement with his performance in favor of the South African government. All of this brings an interesting issue to mind, "Where does one draw the line between being public and being political? Do well-known artists, entertab* pi, authors, ete. have political responsibilities, even if their work is essentially nonpolitical?" Some, perhaps the majority, would answer the above question positively. They would point Out that people who have become very famous in their field yield a tremendous amount o l power, a power which goes far beyond their actual work. Singers, for cxample, are often as famous as the leading political representatives of any issue, and the same can be said for other artists, as well. They have made it to where they are because many people respcct and admire them, and they have a tremendous responsibilily to serve those

people. The serving certainly does not have to be carried out in Congress or any other political arena, but artists should be held responsible for any and all statements that can be construed lrom their art. As I see it, the artist, while he has certain obligations and responsibilities to his public, is not, and should never become, a political spokesman. The world of politics and that of art are completely divergent in nature and in purpose. Politics is a world of motives, intrigue, and competition. Art is a world in which beauty exists far beauty's sake, and each inhabitant is as good as his last creation. The songs that Ray Charles sings are not activist or radical. In fact, it would be quite hard to pull any underlying statement lrom his songs. People go to his concerts and buy his records because he is a great musician and showman. If Charles tried to politically please dl of the members of his audience, he would not have a chance to play anywhere nor would we have the chance to hear him. The true responsibility of Ray Charles is to satisfy his public with the artistic excellence he has come to represent. And that is the basis upon which he should be judged! If he should later decide that he wishes to make a political statement, then certainly he will do so, but let him be the one to tell us that is, in fact, what he is doing. When one tries to turn that which is supposed to be art, into sometl~ing which has great political meaning, he distorts the underlying truth of its prolound beauty. Let Ray Charles and all others like him perform where they will. Let them be judged on their artistic ability. If they have something political to say, let i t be judged on its own value, but don't ever allow the art and the politics to mix! Groome.

Braves looking for 5-5 against Anderson by Kurt Dusterbag The Braves have a chance to break even for the season tomorrow night when they take a 4-5 lecord to Anderson at 8:00 p.m. This game has no bearing on league statistics, but Coach Gene Brindise says fans should not expect any surprises, just hard-nosed football. He characterizes Anderson as "'an excellent passing team that played a tough schedule" d e spite a 3 6 record. 'We've got a lot to play for," Brindise said. "I think the seniors are playing for pride, and everyone wants to give us momentum for the Greenhills game." Brindise was speaking of next year's opener some 4 2 weeks from now. Brindise also hopes to play some players tomorrow night who have seen little d o n this year, but whether they see action 'W be dictated by the sihlation of the game." The Braves snapped a five game tdhpin in a big was last week when they crushed the Milford Eagles, 38-20.

The combined factors of timely passing effectiveness and a sound Nnning game were the reasons Indian Hill fared so well. The touchdowns were scored by Kevin Viax, who had two, and Mike Wentz. However, Gary Hallam had the best day, rushing for over 100 yards. His performance led assistant coach Woodward to say, 'Gary ~eallycarried the mail today.'' The B~aves fust drive prompted parent George Seremetis to comment, "It was like watching Woodie Hayes' teams; six, seven yards and a cloud of dust." Wentz threw well t o his favorite targets Tom Wilson and Jim Gmskin, bath making key first down catches throughout the game.

nets claim salmon by Dwight PoffenbergeF Let me give you a pioce of advice. If you're hoaded north towards Michigan salmon fishing, stag home. This faU you'd be lucky to catch one fish a day. Far the rust time since 1970 rivcrs normally full o i coho and the early chinook salmon this time of year are experiencing extremely light mns. Clear gravel bars where saimon used to fm by the hundreds now are relatively banen. A river I have grown up fishing, the Crystal Rivcr in northcrn Michigan, did not have many sal. mon as uflate October. Normally thousands of mature coho salmon surge over a sand bar in the mouth of the Crystal early in September. Why didn't they this year? I think it's the Indians. Five or six years ago a federal district judge named Fox rulcd that the lndians still had their fishing rights according to an ancient treaty. Thc treaty did not specify how the lndians could and could not fish. Consequently, the lndians started fishing with large gill nets samctimes miles long. Gill nets are nets wilh holes small enough that when a fish swims into one the net catches undcr the fish's GUS, so the fish can't back out or go ahead. The fish dies soon afterwards. Of all the Great Lakes* f ~ hl&e , trout have been hurt the most by Indian's gill nets. Sincc lndians are not allowed to sell salmon commercially, they make their proiiu on lake trout. Right now the lake trout population that had takcn almost a decade to build up is almost all gone as a result. l have watched lndians load up a boat with lake trout in only a few feet of gill net. I m a pine miles of gill net. In my opinion, the Indians havc round a way to protit iram netting saimon ilthough it is illegal. With the help o i greedy white men thc Indians could have found a market for salmon. It wouldn't surprise me. The lndians are out to make as much nloncy as p o s siblc. They don't cart about sport fishing ar the future of the fxh. Same people are saying that the absence of salmon could be a mistake by thc Michigan Depart-
