plight of Oedipus' ch ildren and
their power struggles to gain
control over their home land .
Risso has chosen seven actors

Dr. Ear
i oite TO Be Honored
As 1980 DiStinguis e A umnus
Southeastern's 1980 Distinguished Alumnus is Dr. Earl Willhoite. a
1935 graduate who has become internationally known for his fole in
developing choral and instrumental music.
He will be honored Saturday. October 25. 1980, as pan of the
Homecoming activities.
A Durant native, Willhoite now serves as Educational Director and
Senior Editor for Shawnee Press in Deleware Water Gap. PA. Much of
his time now is spent working with instrumental music. and he has
become well known in Japan in more recent years for his work in that
form of music.
Faded letters proclaiming " Willhoite Bakery " still can faintly be
seen on the old Main Street building which once housed the famil y
business in Durant. "The contributions Earl has made to music will
never fade." Southeastern President Leon Hibbs said of the J 980
Dis tinguished Alumnus.
.. He has brought honor to Southeastern and to himself through
music. We are proud of Earl Willhoite. He certainly deserves to be
honored in this way. ·' Hibbs added.
For over 32 years Willhoite has been with the Fred Waring
Enterprises' Shawnee Press organization. He began as a part-time
assistant in the editorial department while a doctoral candidate at
Teachers College , Columbia University .
Willhoite founded t he Shawnee Choir and as director has conducted
over J .000 choral publications on records which have had a positive
impact on choral music in the United States and abroad for nearly a
quarter century.
He was a member of the steering committee which launched and
guided the American Choral Directors Association to national
recognition and prominence. He was a charter member and first
secretary-treasurer of the organization.
·
As an editor, he has added more than 300 major works to the
repertoire of bands and orchestras, and for three years , he was
chairman of the associate members of the American Bandmasters
Association.
Willhoite has conducted choral clinics, festivals and workshops in 35
states, and in Canada and Germany . and for six of his 14 years with the
Fred Waring Music Workshop, he served as Dean and Dire, of
Instruction.
Willhoite completed his Bachelor of Arts degree at South
tern
about the time Adolf Hitler was tooling up his war machine in Europe.
While Hitler readied for War, Willhoite marri~d his college
sweetheart, Leona Hurt of Ardmore, and took his fir~t teaching job in
Kiowa, Okla., as a math instructor. The couple has now been married
45 years. They have two children and four grandchildren.
•
•
W illhoite taught ch,1ral mu:- t~ for the first time in 1946 at Sulphur
High School. At the time. there was no choral program at the school.
By the time he I~ ft . t he little school was ranked second best in she
state. Only powerful Classen Hig h School of Oklahoma City scored
better.
It took Willhoite only four years t~ produ ce the near champions hip
chorus at Sulphur. and he also completed his masters degree in music
at Oklahoma University during that period of time.
ln 1940. he was called to war with Oklahoma's 45th Division, but
s hortly was rransfet;red to the U. S. Army Field Artillery. He served
unt il 1945 in the Panama Canal Zone. New Guinea . New Britain and
the Ph illipines. rising to the rank of Captain by t he time of his
discharge.
For a brief time after the war. Willhoite thought of giving up music
as a career and t r i~d selling insurance in Sulphur. A job offer from his
old rival chorus . Classen High School. in 1946 brought him bad into
the music profe ssion .
He s pent four years as choral director at Classen. and during that
period. 94 percent of his students received superior ratings at s tate
contests.
Willhoite's next move was to Columbia University and to his first job
with Fre<i Waring Enterprises where he gleaned information for his
doctoral thesis while working in audio control of Waring's weekly
television s how and set the stage for his acco mplishments over the next
30 plus yeats.
Willhoite said he has enjoyed his caree r in music and feels the ethics
and values he learned while in southeastern Oklahoma have been a
grea1 help over the years . "I profited much from the time I spent in
that part of the country ... he added.
He said he now spends as much spare time as possible with his
childre n and grandchildren. His son. J ohn Willhoite. is a Major in the
U.S. Air Force in Rome . New York. His daughter. Mrs. Jack (Carol
Jean) Harmon. lives in Alexandria. Va .

THE SOUTHEASTERN
October 23, 1980
Opinion Poll
itar's Corner
l
A team has been organized to look into the number of persons who
dropped courses at the beginning of this semester just after regular
enrollment ended. That was announced by President Leon Hibbs when
responding ~o questions about the ''ten dollar drop fee'' editorial in the
last Southeastern.
,
Although THE SOUTHEASTERN maintains its position that the
drop fee should be done away; certain statements have been made to
place the responsibility or blame for the fee on the shoulders of the
students rather th'a n on those of the administration.
According to President Hibbs...-a number of students in the past have
pre-enrolled in courses with no intention of attending those classes
when the semester begins. Last semester approximately 3000 dropped
courses were recorded and only about 250 of these had legitimate
reasons to justify them being dropped.
The cost of these "joke enrollments" comes into view when one
looks at the actions of the administration in anticipation of the coming
semesters class scheduling according to pre-enrollment figures. If the
number of students who have pre-enrolled for a class justifies the
hiring of an instructor to\ tea'c h that class then an instructor will be
signed to teach. When students drop these courses at the beginning of
a semester and leave the instructor with no one to teach the
administration cannot dismiss the instructor. He is under contract to be
paid and. apparently, there are a few teachers at Southeastern wh.o are
being paid for doing nothing. The drop fee was apparently established
to help pay these insfT!lctors.
The fee is a fine students pay for dropping classes. It was increased
in an effort to stop those students who enroll and then drop just for the
thrill of it. but, it does not seem like_ly . that such a large
percentage--around 90 percent--of Southeastern students who drop
courses are actually dropping them just to give the school a ba_d time.
The drop is usually necessary and rarely for the thrill of it.
Honest
students should not be fined for something they have not done
It does not seem likely, also, that the school administrators would
impose such a large fine on the students for the thrill of it.
Any student who feels he or she had a legitimate reason for dropping
a course can get his or her ten dollars per course back by providing. in
writing. an explanation of the reasons to Dr. Sturch or Dr. Hibbs. This
action can be taken now--it is not too late.
. If enough students with legitimate reasons write and get the ir money
back may be the cost and time needed to review these letters will
outweigh the benefits derived from the fee and it will qe eliminated.
Let's start )Vriting.

Civil Rights Leader Is SLEP Speaker
•.
I
I
'
A man who has been a leader in
the American civil rights movement since World War D, a.n d
who at age 70 still is active
politically, will deliver a ScholarLeadership Enrichment Program
lecture in November.
Bayard Rustin, board chairman
of the A. Phillip Randolph Institute in New York City, will speak
Wednesday, Nov. 5, in Norman
on ''The Civil Rights Movement
in the 1980s--From Race to
Economics.'' The free, public
lecture begins at 8 p .m. in 200
Dale Hall , 455 W. Lindsey, at the
University of Oklahoma.
The lecture is scheduled in
conjunction with a seminar on the
same topic which Rustin will
conduct for SLEP students from
across the state Nov. 4 through 7.
Rustin also .will lead a forum
discussion on " Human Rights
Issues in the Eight~s " from 3:30
to 5 p.m. Thursday,' Nov. 6. The
session will be held at St. Thomas
More Catholic Church, located at
Jenkins and Stinson in south
Norman , and the public may join
in the discussion with SLEP
coordinato r s. st udents and
faculty.
Appropriately, Rustin , who has
been active in the presidential
campaign . will speak in Oklahoma one day after the election .
The institute Rustin heads has
supported voter regist ration
drives a nd programs designed to
strengthen relatio ns between
black people and the nation· s
labor movement since its formation in 1964.
Rustin was an aide to the
institOte 's namesake and a youth
organizer of Randolph 's March on
Washington in 1941. That same
year, Rustin became race relations secretary of the Fellowship
of Reconciliation . a position he
held until 1953, and the first field
secretary of the newly formed
Congress of Racial Equality .
ln 1942, Rustin went to California to help protect property
belonging to Japanese-Americans
who had been placed in detention
camps. Over the years, he has
been involved in other human
rig ht s move ment s. including
service as chairman of the Free
India Committee before that
nation won its independence from
. Great Britain; the Committee to
Support South African Resistance, which later became the
American Committee on Africa;
the Black Americans to Suppon
Israel Committee; and the Citizens Commission on Indochinese
Refugees.
In 1943, Rustin went to jail as a
conscientious objector against the
war, serving two years in Lewisburg Penitentiary. In following
years, Rustin served as director of
a Randolpl];formed Committee
Against Discrimination in the
Armed Forces, which secured
President Harry Truman's executive orde r eliminating segregation
in the military , while serving also
as executive secretary of the War
Resister's League .
Rustin participated in the first
" Freedom Ride " in 1947. For his
participation in "The J ourney of
Reconciliation," which was
designed to test enforcement of a
1946 court decision outlawing
discrimination in interstate
travel. Rustin served 30 days on a
North Carolina chain gang. An
article he wrote about that
experience for the New York Post
prompted an investigation which
led to the abolition of chain gangs
in North Carolina.
At the beginning of the Montgomery Bus Boycott in 1955, Dr.
Martin Luther King enlisted
Rustin to help with organizing the
protest. A year later. Rustin drew
up the first organizational plans
for the Southern Christian Leadership Conference at King's
request . and he continued to
serve as a special assistant to
King for seven years.
Rustin · s experie nce with Randolph · s March on Washington in
1941 was valuable in the planning
of other marches in the civil rights
movement.
Aft e r coo rdinatin g 1957's
Prayer Pilgrimage to Washington
and the Youth Marches for Intergrated Schools in 1958 and 1959.
Rustin served as deputy director
of the 1963 March on Washington. The march drew 250.000
persons to the nation 's Capitol
and paved the way for passage of
the landmark 1964 Civil Rights
Act .
During his civil rights career.
Rustin has been arrested 24
times.
Today. Rustin participates in
meetings of the Black Leadership
Forum , which meets periodically
to discuss issues of concern to
minorities. He also is chairman of
the board of the Recruitment and
Training Programs. an organization that has helped develop the
"outreach" concept of affirmative action to upgrade and increase minority participation in
construction trades .
A collection of Rustin writings .
" Down the Line, " was published
in 1971. and his " Strategies for
Freedom: The Changing Patterns
of Black Protest" was released in
1976. He also writes a monthly
column for 150 black and labor
publications .
Rustin's college education in
the 1930s was financed by his
voice. He earned his tuition to
attend the City College of New
York by singing with J osh Wh ite
and Leadbelly.
Rustin is the founh scholar to
participate in SLEP's sixth year of
lectures and seminars. and the

Lowering Cholesterol May
Prevent Heart Attacks
I
1
' 'Can heart attacks be prevented by lowering cholesterol?" is
the question asked by a team of
University of Arkansas fo r
Medical Science researchers
conducting a study of the relationship between hean disease and
cholesterol. Most hean trouble
results from atherosclerosis or
" hardening of the aneries. A clue
to the cause of atherosclerosis
may be that cholesterol. a fatty
substance, is found in diseased
arteries; it is, however, still
uncertain whether lowering
cholesterol can actually prevent
heart attacks.
Interested persons between the
ages of 25-64 who have sustained

Fireplace Safety Urged
A nip of autumn is in the air.
and with the approach of cooler
weather. State Health Commissioner Dr. J oan K. Leavitt urges
aU Oklahomans to take special
precautions before lighting their
fireplaces for the first rime this
season.
·'Though firep laces are popular
and may represent some fuel
savings. they also represent
potential health hazards from fire
and carbon monoxide poisoning,''
she warned.
Leavitt said statistics compiled
by the U.S. Consumer Protection
Safety Commission report over
6,000 children and adalts are
treated each year for injuries
associated with fireplaces and
fireplace equipment.
She suggested several basic
precautions which should be
taken before lighting a fire:
--Before the weather gets too
cold , check now and make sure
the chimney ist free of birds nests
and that there lare no leaks in the
ptpe .
--Make certain, the fireplace
screen completely covers the
opening around the fireplace to
keep sparks from flying out.
--Do not use coal or put
polystyrene packaging in a fireplace.
--Do not pretreat logs with
charcoal lighter or gasoline. or
use gasoline or other flammable
liquids to rekindle a fire. The
flammable vapors can explode.
--Be sure the damper is open
while the fire is burning. Inadequate ventilation in a fireplace
can. produce
carbon monoxide
.
potsonmg.
--Make certain all ashes have
cooled before you dispose of
them.
--Always check the fire to make
sure it is completely out before
retiring for the evening.

The Savage football team lost
the ir Oklahoma . Intercollegiate
·Conference opener 14-13, but
nearly staged a co,rt¥b~k duriag
the second half.
•
Southwestern Bulldogs held a
14-0 lead at the buzzer ending die
first half. They had taken the
opening kickoff and maoched 78
yards in 15 plays .
Myron Cook carried the pigskin
in from the one yard line after
·q uarterback Steve Price had hit
tight e nd Doug Miller with a 26
yard aerial to get to the Savage

one yard line.
The extra point kick was good
a nd with 6: 14 left in the first
quarter the Bulldogs led 7-0 .
After the Savages had failed to
move the ball and were forced to
p unt . the Bulldogs 'took posses·
sion on their own 16 yard line.
Quarterback Price ca rried the
ball to paydirt from 2't yards out
with only eight .seconds gone in
the second quarter. Middlebacks
added the e xtra point and the
Bulldogs led 14-0.
That was the last time the
Bulldogs would light up their half
of the scoreboard as the Savage
defense regr~uped and got rough
with them.

ve red fumbles kept both teams
out of the endzones for the
remainder of the first half as
defenses buckled down.
The tables turned during the
second half. The Savages came
out fired up after the pep talk and
strategy session and wasted little
time putting points on the board.
Eric Anderson received the SW
kickoff
on his own-three-and
--ran-·it
back to the Savage 45 yard line.
Steve Hodge led an aerial attack,
and with help of a 23 yard pass
interference call, the Savages
found themselves on the SW
seven.
Hodge called on Anderson from
there and the running back
scampe red in for the score.
Robert Manley split the uprights
with the extra point and the
Savages were again in contention.
Defenses for each team controlled the game until only 4:00
re mained in the game. The
Savages got the ball after holding
the Bulldogs on a fourth and one
atte mpt.
The ~avages took over on the
Bulldog 47 a~d their offe nse
began to move .
AI Penn-White banged in from
two yards out for the score and
the Savages trailed by one, 14-13.
~
Only 2:03 remained when the
clock was stopped to set up the
extra point try.
Everyone in the stadium, including the Bulldogs, felt that
Coach Red Rutherford and his
gang would settle for a tie, when
there was a chance for a victory. It
could easily have been a one point
win for the Savages.
After a brief conference, the
Savages lined up for a two point
conversion ,try. The short pass
was intercepted by a Bulldog
defender and the Savages were
held out.
Not many of those who were
there really felt like it was over
and they were right.
An onside kick was smothered
by a Bulldog, but when they
couldn 't move the ball the
Savages had one more chance
with only four seconds remaining.
Steve Hodge lofted a bomb for
a speedy receiver and the buzzer
sounded as the ball was in the air.
When it came down two defenders deflected the ball, but not
before the receiver made a mad
scramble trying to snare it.
Quarterback Steve Hodge
connected on 16 of 37 passes for
226 yards. Savage rushers gained
only 24 yards on the ground to

23 yards.
