With magazine production still sev
eral months away, Tarnhelm will hold its
first meeting next Monday to get pros
pective members and writers together.
The meeting will be held in room W-129
at 3:30 p.m.
In addition to introducing the maga
zine to new members, the meeting will
be a discussion of possible production
alternatives. The recently approved
budget allows enough money for a
32-page magazine, as in previous years,
but within that frame the magazine
could highlight a special theme or use
any expressive medium suitable for a
standard magazine format. Bring your
ideas.
STUDENTS AGLOW
We'd like to thank our guests from
the Capitol Campus community for a
well-attended viewing of our first film
this term, "The Cross and the Switch
blade." Afterward, refreshments and
comments concluded the evening pro
gram. The next film to be shown is
"Jesus," in English cinema adaptation
from the Gospel of Luke. It received a
high rating of critical acclaim when it
was released three years ago. Much of
the action is filmed on location in Israel,
using natural dress and a cast of
thousands. The reels begin rolling at
7:30 on Tuesday, October 20 in W-132.
Then:: will be free admission and food.
Future events include a come-as
you-are Coffeehouse on Oct. 27 in the
Student Center beginning at 8 p.m.
Music, skits and games are on the
agenda. Are there any pinochle players
out there? Also, each Sunday there is a
10 a.m. worship service in the Student
Center. Everyone is invited.
DELTA TAU KAPPA
As a student organization, Delta Tau
Kappa is unique in that it is the only
Honor Society on campus. Our major
purpose is twofold: to promote the
highest level of scholastic achievement
and to provide a forum where all Social
Science students can further their own
goals, be they personal or academic.
At our October 13 meeting, Dr.
Whittaker spoke about his recent trip to
Chima, with an emphasis on the social
and political changes. We will continue
to sponsor similar programs, as well as
student-led debates on various topics,
throughout the year. We will also be

sponsoring a research paper competition
each term, with an award presented for
the best Social Science paper, as deter
mined by a faculty panel.
Our main concern is to promote
communication and understanding be
tween students and faculty within the
Social Science field. Membership in DTK
is an opportunity to meet informally
with students who have similar interests
as well as a chance to belong to an
international organization. The benefits
of membership are dependent on your
involvement.
Any Social Science student with a
GPA of 3.0 or better who may be
interested in membership is encouraged
to stop by our office in W-110 for more
information. We also have a provisional
membership for new students who have
not yet earned a GPA here at Capitol.
Our meetings are held every other
Tuesday and are open to all interested
students. Information concerning time
and place is posted on the bulletin board
across from the Gallery Lounge. If you

DATA PROCESSING MANAGEMENT
ASSOCIATION
The Data Processing Association
(DPMA) of Capitol Campus is a student
chapter of the International DPMA and
is sponsored by the central Pennsylvania
chapter of DPMA in Harrisburg. The
DPMA is a relatively young organization
(two years old) oriented toward provid
ing a social environment for information,
discussion, and activities relating to the
computer field.
The DPMA's membership consists of
students who have an option or interest
in computer applications. Students ma
joring in engineering, mathematical sci
ence, and business administration make
up a majority of the club's current
membership. Student members will at
tend the meetings of the local DPMA
chapter in Harrisburg.
Despite being a young organization,
activities already sponsored by DPMA
range from tours and guest speakers to
programming contests. For example,
last year's programs included speakers
from the General Accounting Office in
Washington D.C., the Pennsylvania De
partment of Education, and Radio Shack.
Guest speakers tentatively planned for
this year include an EDP auditor and

representatives from Penn Dot and
Apple. In addition to the guest speakers,
tours of local industry are being planned.
These activities are designed to provide
students with exposure to the industry
and its working professionals.
Without a doubt, the most challeng
ing activity supported bt DPMA has
been the regional contest of the Fortran
Programming Competition. Sponsored
by the Association of Computing Mach
inery, the contest will take place again
this year on November 21 in Philadel
phia. The competition consists of groups
of four students working to solve com
puter programming problems assigned
just prior to the start of the competition.
This year, as in the past, DPMA will be
sending a team of four qualified students
to the competition. These students need
not be members of the club, but must
meet certain qualifications.
The qualifications for participation
are as follows: the student must be
attending Capitol Campus full-time,
must have knowledge of Fortran pro
gramming and data structures (CMPAP
440 course or equivalent), and must not
graduate before March of next year.
When a reasonable number of applicants
is received, a screening process will
begin which will lead to the final
choosing of four students. All qualified
and interested students are urged to
contact Mrs. Gayle Yaverbaum (E ¶ 356,
948-6154) as soon as possible.
More information about the DPMA
club can be obtained by attending the
meetings, or by contacting Alexis Meek,
Cathy Ryan, Fred Hummel, or any
DPMA member. Regular meetings of
the club are posted on the bulletin
boards around campus.
What if birth control were illegal?
This and other questions will be addres

scheduled for October 22 in the B.C.A.C.
Lounge from 1:30-3:30 p.m. Panel mem
bers will discuss the Omnibus Bill
(Abortion Control Act), The Shared
Custody Bill, The Rape Victim Confi

Refreshments will be served and
latecomers are welcome.

bers. I hope everyone had a most
enjoyable summer. For those of you who
did not attend summer classes, PBL was
still kicking during the summer.
Presently PBL is looking for new
members. This term we will be electing a
junior vice-president and a treasurer,
and both offices are open to any paid
member. Anyone interested in joining
PBL and possibly running for either
office can contact any PBL member or
stop in our office in W-110.
Finally, I would like to thank all the
PBL members who helped with our
successful fund-raiser. I would also like
Lo thank everyone for their patronage.
Your support of our organization is
greatly appreciated.

President, Phi Beta Lambda
Fund Raiser
During Orientation and the first
week of classes, PBL held its first fund
raising event. The club sold memo
boards, stuffed animals, pencil sharpen
ers, first-aid kits, and posters. The funds
raised from this event will help send club
members to the Eastern Regional Con
ference in Rhode Island.
Wine Tour
On September 30, members of PBL
enjoyed their second tour of the Nissley
Winery. Two new members, Jock Carter
and Bill Brooks, joined the president and
his cabinet on the scenic trip to Bain
bridge, Pa. Mixing a little sport before
pleasure, the group played a game of
Nerf football before touring the winery.
The tour included the vineyards, the
pressing machines, the storage and
bottling process, and, of course, the
tasting. A short meeting was held after
the tour. Some of the topics discussed
were meeting times, advisor's position,
the 10-K, new members, fund raisers,
and other tours, including a return trip
to the winery in March.
