What a computer can do is only
limited by the imagination of the per-
son using it, McLaughlin added.
Video game computers and small
terminals are available for the home
now and are popular among children
and adults, McLaughlin explained.

establish a Christian community, she
said.
“What was so unique about his ser-
vices was that instead of delivering a

McLaughlin said.
McLaughlin predicts that within 10
years every house that now has a
pocket calculator will have a com-
puter.
Do not be fooled by the computer
that looks intelligent because “it is im-
possible for a computer to think,”
McLaughlin said.

There's only one thing you con do when you get
Hornitos. Give in. Because when you get Sauza Hornitos
Tequila, you get the taste of 100% Agave. That means
it's the real thing. So the only way to appreciate a
tequila this good is to drink it the traditional way-
straight up with lemon or lime and salt.
So sidle up to a bar and say what's on your mind.
You won't believe how fast you'll get Hornitos.
Chances are you'll want to remember the first time
you got Hornitos. And here's the T-shirt that will help
you do it. Sauza Hornitos Tequila.

It was in 1950 that the Catholic ac-
tion moved into the highlands and
became a radical force, she said.
They then began organizing the In-
dians there into communities like the
Catholic communities of today.
These communities formed the
basis of the organization of peasants
who now want their independence.
Montgomery, who has traveled ex-
tensively through Central America
and spoke with the revolutionaries,
said, “They don’t use the word revolu-
tion, but the word liberation. They
want freedom from fear of the
government and to be able to have
their own organization.”
In 1974 the peasants decided they
wanted their own open organization.
At the Basilica of the Sacred Heart in
San Salvador, they started the mass
political organization of the left from
the political organization of the
church.
“The basis for radical changes in
Central and Latin America is the idea
that the people have the ability and the
means to get what they need,” she
concluded.■
Brenda Pacheco, SRC secretary, said.
In other business, the SRC surveys
of student opinion on absence policy
revision and college participation in
sports programs are being processed,
and the results will be announced at
Tuesday’s SRC meeting.
The campus operations commission
will meet with appropriate ad-
ministrators seeking funding for a
ramp to make Gonzales Hall more ac-
cessible to handicapped students.
Currently, handicapped students
must go around Loftin Student Center
to gain entry to Gonzales. The campus
operations commission reported an
estimate of about $300 necessary to
build the ramp.
Also, campus operations will pur-
sue improved fire safety measures for
Moody Learning Center.
“Evacuation of handicapped
students is reliant upon campus
police getting those students out (of
MLC). They have to go up, in the event
of a fire, to get those people out. We’re
talking about a lapse of at least 10
minutes or more,” Tanja Wade, cam-

pus operations commissioner, said.
In response to information that
funds are not currently available to
improve escape routes in MLC
because the master plan for future col-
lege expansion will move classes to
another building other than MLC,
Phillis Moore, campus operations
commissioner, said, “For the short
term, we do need more fire escapes
now.”
Wade added, “When you are deal-
ing with lives, it’s important to do
something now.”
The campus operations commission
will seek advice from a fire-safety con-
sultant who has already done a
preliminary study of MLC.
Responding to a letter from a stu-
dent, the student services commission
will research the reasons for the six- to
eight-week delay period to receive a
refund back from the college.

“It’s like installing a new and more
sophisticated combination lock. If
people let the combination out, it’s not
much good,” a banking official that
was quoted in Family Weekly said,
McLaughlin said security must deal
with the problem because it is hero to
stay, m
“We have to train police agencies
and the FBI on how to detect it
(computer crime),” McLaughlin said.
As the use of computers increases,
the crimes involving them will in-
crease and security needs an effective
way to prevent them, McLaughlin
said.B
The Student Representative Com-
missions voted Tuesday to invite cam-
pus administrators to an informal
gathering as a step to improved com-
munication between students and ad-
ministration here.
Frank Burns, SRC president, will ex-
tend invitations to administrators to
attend the Nov. 16 SRC meeting. The
meeting will be informal with
refreshments available, the commis-
sion decided.
Commissioners unanimously
agreed on the necessity of immediate
actions toward eliminating apathy
and improving communications bet-
ween administration and students,
beginning with the informal gathering
where students and administrators
will be invited to attend.
“I feel if we start working on the
problem of apathy here then the pro-
blem will improve. We as student
representatives can offer steps to help,
but the administration has to want to
improve the situation also.
“It has to come from the top down
or the problem won’t ever improve,”

It’s the extra-fine rolling ball of Pilot's remarkable new Precise Ball Liner
Pen. (If you haven't guessed which one it is, look at the top photo again.
It's the trim beauty on the bottom left.) '
But unlike the others, the real beauty of Pilot's Precise Ball Liner is
the extra-fine line it puts on paper. It glides smoothly across the page
because its tiny tungsten carbide ball is held securely within a needle-like
stainless steel collar. A collar that makes the Precise Ball Liner the most
durable, trouble-free rolling ball pen you can buy.
It's letter-writer'sjoy.- An artist's dream.
A scribbler's delight.
One more fine point: the Pilot
Precise Ball Liner doesn't
have a big, fat price.
It'sjust a skinny

Computer crime is definitely on the
upswing, a data processing professor
said Wednesday in an interview here.
“Computer crime is a growing and
important area,’’ Leonard
McLaughlin said.
Crimes that computers are involved
in usually concern banks, McLaughlin
said.
In an article in the Feb. 2, 1982,
issue of Family Weekly it stated that,
“The losses each year, exports say,
run into hundreds of millions,
perhaps billions of dollars.”
McLaughlin said people who com-
mit computer crimes are not covered
by any particular law.
“One problem is we do not have any
national law,” McLaughlin said.
Most people are charged with either
fraud, theft or embezzlement,
McLaughlin said.

As the amount of things a computer
can do increases, their popularity in-
creases, McLaughlin said.

everything from one’s checkbook to
White-collar crime multiplies
Most people caught .are charged
with these crimes but the fact is that
most people are not caught, he said.
Family Weekly stated that, “One
computer crime consultant guesses
that 99 out of 100 computer crooks get
away.”
McLaughlin said computer crime
can occur in another way.
If a person takes information about
an individual out of a computer
without that person's permission,
then he or she is invading that per-
son's privacy, ho explained.
Many companies are protecting
themselves from computer crime by
hiring companies to develop program-
ming- techniques, McLaughlin said.
McLaughlin said, “We have many
firms that provide programming
techniques or codes.”
Church offers liberation hope
The church has been a major factor
in the peasants’ struggle for liberation
in Central and Latin America, a
speaker at the United Methodist Stu-
dent Center said Tuesday.
The speaker, Dr. Tommie Sue Mont-
gomery, teacher, writer, and lecturer
at the University of Texas at San An-
tonio, said the church has contributed
greatly to the peasants’ wish for in-
dependence.
“The people believe God is on their
side in their struggle against repres-

cord it takes to plug it in.”B

Man can never be replaced by a
computer, a data processing professor
said Wednesday in an interview.
"Computers are machines with an
IQ of zero,” Leonard McLaughlin
said. “It’s an inert machine until we
provide the instructions.”
McLau-ghlin said computers can
never replace man because they have
po emotions or reasoning capabilities.
“Would you take a computer out on
a date?" McLaughlin asked.
Computers may not be the ideal din-
ner companion, but they can perform .
certain functions.
McLaughlin said, “Computers can
replace certain functions that man
does.”
Jobs that involve doing things in
constant repetition like factory
assembly or continuous calculations
are good examples of jobs that com-
puters do effectively.
“This does not mean that people are
going to lose their jobs,” McLaughlin
said.
s’ People may experience a displace-
ment in jobs because of computers,
but jobs in computer programming
and operations are and will continue , .. .. , . .
to be open fields of employment, Computer’s limit: man’s imagination
McLaughlin said.
. This may make for a more skilled
labor force, the University of
Southern California graduate said.
McLaughlin said computers often
make jobs easier for people by doing
something quicker.
“We can do more in less time (with
computers),” McLaughlin said.
Computers also can keep people
from doing redundant work, work boy, the more expensive the toy.”
that is repetitious, McLaughlin said.
“People are free to do more plan-
ning, more managing,” McLapghlin
said.
