Generals' Fiji Zeta Deuteron Washington ® Chapter University Lee V CHOW TIME! It is no longer a dream - the Fiji kitchen is again open for business. The $11,000 renovation project which started in October was completed over Qiristmas break, and the brothers have since been dining in style. Some of the key features are brand-new refrigerator and freezer units, new linoleum flooring, a revamped stove and oven with an improved exhaust system, and a new sprinkler system. Two well-renowned cooks are preparing excellent "grub," and food manager Drew Gark is running an effi cient operation. The cause of the kitchen's demise is sbmewhat nebu lous, but with such an outstanding unit to display now, it surely won't happen again. Many thanks go to Charlie Alforn and his crew of builders and especially to Ed Bi§ht. Page 3 Fiji Sports FIJI GENERALS EXCEL As always, Fijis were a major part of the W&L foot ball team's drive to success. This year, the Generals finished 8-2 and won their first ODAC championship, as no less than ten brothers of Phi Gam took part. Leading the way was ODAC "Player-of-the-Year" Chris Cavalline. "Cav" rushed 235 times for 765 yards, caught 23 passes for 221 yards, punted 36 times for a 35.0 average, and scored 7 touchdowns and passed for another. Junior tackle Andy Foley was also a first-team all-league pick, and sophomore guards Carlton Peebles and Craig Reilly saw plenty of action "in the trenches." Other Fiji gridders were Rich Hachenburg, Jed Goad, Sam Dawson, Greg Lukanuski, Jim Lyall, and Myles Adyelotte. Winter brought the wrestling and basketball seasons, and Fiji was again well-represented on both squads. Sopho more 158-pounder Tim Valliere was captain of the wrest ling squad, and he earned a 2nd-place finish in the Division III regional tournament. Tim compiled a 15-6 record as he aims for the all-time school record for victories. Sophomore heavyweight Carlton Peebles finished with a 14-8 mark and perforrned well against some top-level competition. On the hoops scene, W&L roared to a 21-7 record as first-team all-ODAC forward Brian Hanson led the way. A three-year letterman, Brian averaged 13.0 points and 7.2 rebounds, as the Generals fell one win short of NCAA regional play. Junior forward Jay Fechtel added 3.1 ppgin a reverse role. IM - TOUGH! SPOTLIGHT: PLAYING FIELD Among the many talented athletes here at Phi Gam, one particularly stands out. Chris Cavalline, a junior from St. Mary's, Pa., has made his mark as one of the finest small college performers in Virginia, if not the nation. "Cav" started at W&L in 1979 as a quarterback for the Generals' pigskin squad. Displaying his versatility, he performed the unique feat of both kicking off and return ing a kick-off in the season's first game. After seeing con siderable action that year at QB, he moved to tailback to start the '80 season. Chris merely averaged over ICQ yards per game and scored 8 TD's before being injured - he finished with 537 yards and 10 TD's. Then, in the '81 sea son, he "did it all" and won "Player-of-the-Year" honors. On the baseball field, Chris has been a fine performer for twa years. As a freshman shortstop he hit a hefty .348 and led the team in runs scored. Then, last year he moved to second base and hit .360, topping the squad in doubles and triples and placing second in runs and RBI's. Who knows what this year will bring? Chris also excels in IM basketball and volleyball. He won all-state honors as a eager in high school, and would be a welcome addition to any team. Of course, he also finds some time to study and is working toward a ph^sicsi;:-^ engineering degree. We salute Chris Cavalline - athlete par excellence. Fiji's IM activities are once again producing fine results. The highlight of the year has been a second-place finish in football, while turkey trot and handball action was also successful. On the gridiron, we rolled to seven straight wins before losing 18-6 in the championship game. Included in the victories were a 59-14 romp over Chi Psi and a thrilling 32-27 defeat over the eventual champion. Law I. Top players included QB Ejay Clark, receivers Mike Partin and Jim Hess, and backs Chris Kibler and Stew Butler. Three runners, Mike McFadden, Drew Qark, and Mike Partin paced Fiji to a sixth-place finish in the "turkey trot" cross-country event. McFadden covered the course in , good for a sixth-place individual mark. In handball, we ran up a 3-1 record before losing the final regular season match and dropping a heart-breaking play-off tilt. Stew Butler and Greg Johnson paced the Fiji effort. With the basketball and volleyball play-offs coming up and Softball and track remaining on the schedule. Phi Gam is still within striking distance of the over-all cham pionship. Hopefully, the brothers of Fiji can come up with that "something extra" needed to take it all. \r\nPage 4 NEVER A DULL MOMENT . .. No need to worry. Fiji has not lost its reputation as the top party house on campus. The past year has seen an array of memorable gatherings transpire within the friendly confines of Phi Gam. Wednesday nights during Rush were especially inte resting. "Kamikaze," "Possum," and "Guyana" parties helped to relieve the mid-week blues. And the weekend featured such moments as the annual "Pig-nic," Home coming with "The Nerve," casino night on Parents' Week end, and the inimitable "Heaven and Hell" night. The highlights of the winter term were "Cham- pagnifs" weekend and an unprecedented St. Patrick's Day®v bl^-with "The Nerve."
