C. Richard Neumiller, Councilman of Peoria's Fourth Dis trict, and E. Richard Johnson, representative for District Two on the County Board, share more than just Republican tendancies. They have a common interest in railroad photo graphy which was fostered at Gamma Deuteron. Neumiller had been a staff photographer for the Peoria High School Crest and Knox's student newspaper.

What had started out as weekend excursions gradually bal looned into leaving Wednesday night after Johnson's Army Reserve meeting, then Tuesday night after Neumiller's City Council meeting and so on until most of the week was shot.

Our volleyball team, led by Glen Thompson, was the strongest in the league and we "walked away" with the championship. Strong running by Dave Bates and Norm Hillner helped us to capture second in cross country. We pulled another second place in ping pong behind the strength of our doubles teams. by Glen Thompson Carl Sandburg was born in Galesburg, Illinois, on January 6, 1878. Sandburg was never a student at Knox. He chose instead to attend Lombard College, also in Galesburg,where he be came editor of the college paper and began to write poetry. In 1930, Lombard closed its doors permanently and Carl Sandburg became an 'alum' of Knox College, which has served ever since as a surrogate alma mater for Lombard grads. The Greek Week activities this year were a tug-of-war and a chariot race. Being the defending tug-of-war champs, we were given a first round bye. Then we came on to beat the Sigma Nus and the Phi Belts in the finals. At halftime of the Knox Homecoming Game vs. Carlton, the Fijis once again triumphed over the Phi Belts and won the 100yard race by less than one body length. Photo by Edward Steichen Nevertheless, he visited the Knox campus often, in 1928 to receive an honorary degree of letters, in 1937 at the rededication of Old Main on the occasion of the college's 100thanniver sary, as an alumni for reunions and special events, and in 1958 to take part in the 100th anniversary celebration of the Lincoln-Douglas debates. In the fall of 1962he returned once again, for the last time, with Howard K. Smith, then a news man with CBS. The pair was working on a special on Lincoln's "Prairie Years" in Illinois. Six years later, at the age of 89, Sandburg died. OnFriday, January 6, Knox College kicked offits Sandburg Centenary Celebration, a month-long series of events commemmorating the poet's birth in Galesburg in 1878. Howard K. Smith delivered the keynote address of the celebration in Knox's Harbach Theatre. Later in the day, WilliamA. Smith, artist and close personal friend of Sandburg, presented Knox College with an original lithograph of Smith's portrait of Sandburg. Smith's portrait is the one used on the Carl Paul Brauer drives for two and increases lead of Fiji A over Knox JVs. The winter intramural season had similar results. The Fijis placed second in bowling behind the efforts of Steve LaMore (high game 277). Our swimmers also came back with a second as they won the final relay to cap off a great second day surge. In basketball, our team was untouchable. We finished unde feated and our average margin of victory was over 29 points. In a practice game, we managed to defeat the schools juniorvarsity team and at the end of the year John Sherrick, Boug Buff, and Jim Mocogni were named to the league's All-Star Team. Right now, we are in a close race with the Indees for the All-Sports 'Trophy. Thisin itself is quit an accomplishmentfor they have been recruiting throughoutthe campus in hopes of beating us.

A postal sub station was also set up in Old Main and many people jumped at the opportunity to purchase the stamps and obtain first day of issue cancellations on Carl Sandburg's 100th birthday. Folk singer and actor Burl Ives gave a concert that night in the Carl Sandburg Gymnasium. The celebration continued Saturday and throughout the month ,of January. A series of four all-day Saturday symposia on various aspects of Sandburg's life and works began with "Sandburg's Roots" on January 7 and was followed by a con cert of Sandburg family music by Helga Sandburg Crile. The Norman Corwin play, "The World of Carl Sandburg", was presented from January 13 through January 15. A perfor mance of Lincoln's favorite Civil War music was presented by the Great American People Show on January 21. The series of Knox's Sandburg Centenary events was capped off on Satur day, January 28 by folk singer Pete Seeger. \r\npage 4 PHI GAMS IN THE SPOTLIGHT HOCKEY by Dave Bates This year once again, Fiji's played a dominat role in the suc cess of the Knox Hockey Club. Knox enjoyed its best season in recent years. The record of 2—5—2 does not readily indicate the competitiveness of the team throughout the season. The scores being close in all but two of the games. Fiji's were the bulwark of the Siwash defense. Goalie Fred Heger '79 played spectacularly during the season, several times turning away over forty shots on goal. Fred won the most improved player award for his fine efforts. The starting defensive duo for the Siwash consisted of Dave Bates 78 and Brian Cox '79. As the team's most experienced defensivemen, they saw plenty of ice time. The pair handled the defensive penalty killing and power play duties as wellas taking regular It was a great year. One that Joe Morrison and Jim Lofgren can be proud of. The Siwash finished 12-10 on the year, losing in the conference championship game to Ripon. Jim and Joe are already looking forward to next year, as is freshman pledge and J.V. basketball player Scott Baldwin. SOCCER by Norm Hillner This past season, four Phi Gams and one pledge participated on the Knox soccer team. They were Norm Hillner, Joe Nichols, Tom Bannos, Dave Bates, and Jun Adachi. shifts. Dave was the team's captain and was named the Most Valuable Senior. The soccer team wound up with a total 6—5 record. The Siwashers beat Grinnell 2—1, Coe 2—0, Cornell 3—0, and Rounding out the Fiji line—up were forwards Greg Mendrek '79 and Brent Peterson '78. Both showed great improvement during the year. Though sometimes overshadowed, Greg was quite active on the team's highest scoring line. Fan support was lead by boistrous Fiji fans at several of the games. Return appearences by Dave Fletcher (Illinois '76) and John Lange '77 were instrumental in gaining a tie from the tough Springfield Rangers. BASKETBALL by Joe Morrison Monmouth 9—1 in conference play. This was good enough to give Knox the Southern Division Championship of the Midwest Conference for the seventh consecutive year. Knox, however, lost the conference championship game to Carleton 2—1 in sudden death overtime. Many players, including three Phi Gams, return next year making the outlook very good for a conference championship. Norm Hillner, a junior, was Knox's leading scorer for the second consecutive year with six goals and eight assists from his left wing position. Norm's efforts have earned him first team All—Conference honors for the third time, selection to the All—Illinois Soccer Team for the second time, and selec tion as CO—captain of Knox's team next year. Joe Nichols, a junior from Gilson, Illinois, was a third year starter at right fullback. Joe's mobility and quickness made him a tough defender to beat. His abilities were important to the Knox defense that allowed an average of only 1.8 goals a game. Joe hopes to make next year his best as well as Knox's. This year, Knox College's basketball team was picked to finish third in the Western Division of the Midwest Conference in a pre-season poll. The team had lost 5 players to graduation, including Dave Woodward, who set many individual records last year. Yet when the race was over, Knox College had defied all the oddsmakers and repeated as Western Division Champions. Tom Bannos, a junior from Westchester, Illinois, scored two goals and had two assists as a part time starter at right wing. Tom's quick and aggressive style of play will be sorely missed next year. Tom will attend Columbia as part of Knox's 3—2 engineering program. Tom's scholastic excellence enabled him to make the Illinois All—Academic Soccer Team. This years team combined balanced size with excellent depth. This was never demonstrated more clearly than in the last game of the regular season at home against Monmouth. Knox had lost to Monmouth earlier in the year at Monmouth, but both teams were coming into this game with identical 7-2 records in conference play. In front of 3500 screaming fans, Knox was able to beat Monmouth 93-87. It was a physical game and the Fijis played well. Joe Morrison '79 came off the bench to play excellent defense, holding Monmouth's senior center Roger Sanders to only 6 points. His defense on Sanders, who was 10th in division IIIrebounding,helped Knox to out rebound the physical Scots 46-31. Jim Lofgren '80 came in toward the end of the game and played admirably. Dave Bates,a senior from Colorado Springs, participated on the soccer team for the first time last fall. His knowledge of hockey and lacrosse strategy helped him to become a starter onthejunior—varsity teamat eitherrightorleftwing. Hewas instrumental in their final record of 3—1. Jun Adachi, a freshman from Yokohama, Japan, scored two goalsand had fiveassists from hisleft halfbackposition. Jun's efforts earned him first—team All—Conference honors also. Jun likes to call himself our "Most Valuable Jap". This fine pledge looks for three more productive years. continued to page 6 \r\nNEW PLEOOES This year the Fijis again looked for a good bunch of pledges as official Rush started early in September. The fact that we had our kitchen stove removed caused some problems, but we became quite good at cooking on a grill. Fall activities were mainly hot dog and hamburger nights on Sundays and study breaks during the Playoffs and World Series. The em phasis was put primarily on a one to one basis between actives and rushees. All the brothers tried hard to get to know the rushees in hopes of getting quality pledges. Winter term we put on our last push with two major rush activities. Thefirst onewas BoxingNightinvolving seven two round matches between the actives. Many good punches were landedand tempers flared, but in the endeveryone had a good time and there were no hard feelings. The last event was an invitation onlyPizza Nightat Alfano's Pizzaria. Following the food, there was an introduction |of everyone and hometowns plus singing of a couple of Fiji songs. This event ended our period of rush that produced fourteen excellent pledges. Junichire Adachi '81 was born in Tokyo, Japan. Jun was hon ored by being chosen the Bancroft Scholar for the class of 1981. He started for the Knox Soccer Team this fall and was selected to the All—Conference team.
