C.C. Reader IWIEI A Ini . L , IA A M 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?

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.

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.

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 ==l CLASSIFIEDS Hey "Wild Bill"—Lasso any Prairie Wo men lately?-214 Ex-Bottom and Top-Yea Phi Hies, any way!

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 sed at a panel discussion entitled "Wom en Beware: The Government May Be Dangerous To Your Health, Welfare, And Happiness." The discussion is scheduled for October 22 in the B.C.A.C.

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. Kevin Williams 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.
