January 3 I, I969 XCARLET AND BLACK SPORTS Struggle Pays Off Last Saturday, Grinnell’s "struggling" wrestlers oonm’uued their individual win~ hing records, fielding a triple duo in Wis- mnsin. Three Iowa warns, Grinncll, Cor- nell. and Coe, wrestled each of three Wisconsin teams, Beloit, Ripon, and Iaw-rence. Grinnell's Kraitsik, Laden, Glick. mppel, Wedding. and human were all undefeated in their three matches at the meet, While Kawahara and Hutchings each had two Wins and one defeat. Thesp victories enabled Grinnell {9 remain undeleated in the con- ferenoe. Kraitsi‘il’. and Wedding both re- tain ma'r 6-0 records making flhem prime comenders for conference championships in meirweight divisions. Coach Kimbo should be highly wm— meyided for molding eight wrestlers into nfineteamuiathasagmdshotattha conference championship. Obviously un~ dammed in every "meet. the wrestlers still continue their winning ways. The teammanimportanthomedwthls Saturday at 4:00 pm in Badly gym. Frosll Victory filmy night, the Freshman Bas- ketball Team won their first game of tho season by beating Knox’s freshman 58- 56. The Freshman, now 1-1 for the sea- son, are led by 8-8 Bob Burnett at center, 63 Gilbert and 613 Meyer at the for- wards, and $1 Bombinski and 6-1 Hirsch at the guards. The Fresh are like the Pioneers in that they are good shooters but weak on dcicnse and rebounding. This was reflected in the high score of their 92-91 overtime loss. Primarily, their main problem is a lack of conditioning caused by a six—week layoff. Originally, Coach Boyd planned on using a slow offense, and a man to man defense with a press as the team got into condition, bu‘ the Freshman beat Knox by playing very strong defensively while playing weekly on onensc. This may cause Coach Boyd to reconsider his strategy for the Friday game against Cornell. Pioneers Miss By One Tuesday‘s heart-stopping 5953 1055 to Knox gave the Grinncll College Pioneer basketball team an o7 conference re— cord. Autemptlng to improve his team, Coach Bowers has slowed down the Grin- nell offense. This strategy change was panu'mly mponslble for the close scores oi the Cornell and Knox games However, in the Knox game, despite the strategy ohangc, problems with de- fense rebounding and consistency of play were still present. In the first half. Grin- hell was scoreless for four and a half minutes and made only 30% of their shots. in outuebounding the Pioneers 19~ 11, Knox, on many occasions, had threa or tour players wanking aminst one or zero Pioneers under Grinnell's offensive basket. in the second half. the situation was reversed. The Gninnell defense held Knox to two points in five and a halt minutes. while the “tense scared ten points to give Grimell the lead. The Pioneers tied Knox in rebounding but they still lost it few because of imperfeot cooperation under the boards. Gl‘irulell's guards, woreless in the first half, scored thirteen crucial points in the second half. The second half of the Knox game showed Gninnelll's potential. if this im- proving tcam can establish mnsistency or play, it could win the majority of their renaming games. whatever happem. everyone should come to the games on Friday and Saturday because they Will be very good, just like the Knox game.

M' Page Seven Student Considers Future of Music Dept. By ANN KIRSCHNER This seems to be a bad year for string quartets: the world is losing the Budd- pest and Griinnelll is losing the Lenox. However, the world will continue to sur- vive, and it is now up to the music (le- partment of me college to gather up its resources and prepare to go it alone, without the educational and performance skills of the Messrs. Marsh, Pettys, Mc< Call and Hersh. There is no doubt that the benox has been a drawing card for many students. both prospective music majors and oth 'ers, and undoubtedly some professors. Swimmers Meel Monmouth Defeat The Monmouth College swimming team defeated Grinnell 48 to 47 on Jan- uary Z5. Grinnell was never behind till the last event. Monmouth lost no dual meets last year, and they have four excellent swimmers back. However. they lack depth and young swimmers. Grillnell’s team is stronger than ever before. It is a young team, having but one senior, a bevy of juniors, and six sophomores. Grinnell swims Beloit and Lawrence at home 4:00 pm. January 3i and 1:30 pm. February 1.

In fact the Lenox has had such an imp-ant on the musical life of Grinnell that it is more or less being asstuned that a comparable in- strunienlal group will be hired in its place. However, without meaning to de- precate the worth of die Quartet, i think it would be instructive and highly bene— iicial to the entire college community to consider the alternatives to a setup such as has existed with the Lenox. Several ideas Come to mind in thinking of ways to enhance the music curriculum and extracurricular ohen‘ngs at Gr' - nell. For instance, why not extend in - tdtions L0 musicians of various idioms. such as vocalists, conductors, brass play< ers, etc. to participate in brief midsu- tlal programs. such that at least one dil- ferent musician will be in residence at Grirmell each year? This could be com— pamble tn the exchange program in which the theatre department is partici- pating with the Milwaukee Repertory Theatre under a Rockerfeller Fund grant. The musicianunqesidenoe for the semmer or year would teach a course. give recitfls. hold workshops. and gener- ally be available in all interested metri- bels of the college community. Other suggestions that have come up include expanding the concave“: so as to divem'fy the annual presentations. Another idea is to hire three or four peo- pie who are primarily music attractors. out who would. of course. also he dampe- tent performers. The emphasis hero would be on encouraging more student pcriormanocs. with this program, it would su'll be financially possible to ex- pand the concert series, supplementing it won lesser-known performers who would lie willing to give lectures as well 3: concerts. The music department is undergoing comprehensive alterations for next year. with more curricular emphasis being given to course offerings of a non-tech— nical nature geared to non-music stu- dents who have a desire to enlarge their music education, but who have run had sufficient prerequisites to enroll in cur- rently » offered music courses. A reappraisal of the role or the en- tire music department on this campus mold make that department one of the strongest in the college. it is an oppor- tunity that should not be bypassed. {—I—J Skating Lessons Offered Anyone interested in getting their minor in figure skating and/or learning the basics ol lo: skating. show up at the rink Mondays through Friday: from 12:45 - 1:45 (weather condition! permit- ting).
