Indicating how cattier lie the1r taste really are, gallery organiz- ers are presenting a display of artifact of the Sepic River people of New Guine The show an excellent view of th e peo pie who are known to still practice canni- balism. T HE EXHIBIT is flawed only be- cause the gallery doesn't allow more spare. This does not mean fewer works should have been exhibited, however. The diversity of the highly styl- ized masks and ritual objects make it one of the most inter ting shows to take in th1 month. Localed m the first building on the left from the Alcala Park en- trance, the gallery is open 10 a.m. to 4 pm. Mondays through Fridays and 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Wednesdays. While the background ethnic music is so lively that it is distracting, it brings home the fact that these objects were not made for art's sake. Rather, they are a part of a living tradition. . The artifacts are part of the collection of H. Mark Lissauer. a respected anthro- pologist met by Dr. Charles Ross three years ago. Ross, USO's d!rector of Heal!h Services owns International Gallery m La Mesa and has purchased many works from the L1ssauer collection. The exhibition was installed by stu- dents of There e Whitcomb, USD art de- partment head. • • •

Students at the University of San Diego rocked around the clock yesterday in an effort to help an international famine relief agency. The students were members of the Alpha Delta Pi sorority, who kept 10 loaned rocking chairs in motion from midnight to 10:30 p.m. on the USD campus. The goal of the "rockathon" was to raise money for the American branch of Oxfam, an orgamzat1on created m England in 1942 to fight famine by promoting an adequate world food supply. Many USO students also fasted for_ the day, the last Thursday before Thanksgiving, or limited their food in- take to broth. The money they would have spent on meals was donated to Oxfam. "By participating in Oxfam, students gain a real feeling for the hungry of the world," said Sister Tim Malone, coordinator of USD's campus ministry, sponsor of its sev- enth annual benefit for Oxfam. Malone said she expected the rockathon, fast and other activities would raise $4,000 for Oxfam, some $400 more than the total last year. The rockathon was staged outside Serra Hall, site of the student union and ooe of the busiest buildings on campus. Donors paid to "sponsor" the rockers, whose chairs were loaned by sorority members and graduates. Paula Sheridan, 20, was lasting and rocking yesterday afternoon. Sheridan hadn't eaten since Wednesday eve- ning. "I'm hungry, but that's no big deal." she said. "A lot of people go hungry for a week, so I can do it for a day." Sorority secretary Janie Hoffner, 19, a sophomore, told

of how fraternity members had come out of dormitories before dawn to erenade the rockers and keep them awake. Hoffner who like other members of the sorority fas spending minimum of five hours as a r~ker, said he 1 ea of helping the suffering of other nations was vtry worthwhile. Monica Bennett, 17, studied from a biology textbook while she rocked in a chair that was cushioned by a ~leeping bag. She said USO faculty members understJmd the importance of Oxfam, and supported the benefit ac· t1vities. Another rocker, Maureen Clark, 21, said she felt that by helping Oxlam, she was helping less-developed nations owards agricultural independence.

Head Coach Bill Williams' building process took six seasons of hard work and careful planning, but 1981 proved to be the best year in the history of USD football with the Toreros finishing the year 9-1 and ranked in the top twenty in the nation at the NCAA Division ill level. The sole loss came last weekend at the hands of NCAA Division II member St. Mary's 31-14. Al· though the score shows a seventeen point dif- ference, the game was much closer than that with the Gaels on top 21-14 until the final minute of the third quarter when St. Mary's scored. "We are really proud of the guys this year. Tt1ey have really battled and played great team football. A lot of the credit has to go to the seniors and their leadership and the great enthusiasm of our young people. Our coaching staff also did an excellent job," said Bill Williams. "If the NCAA would allow it. I would love to start next year right now." As a team the Toreros broke or tied six records in

1981 including the most passes attempted in a game (46) and season (329), most penalty yards in a game (216), fewest yards rushing allowed in a game (·9), most interceptions in a season (26), and tied the most interceptions in a game with six. Hen- ry, Loomis and Robert Lozzi each broke or tied four records with Henry having most carries in a season (200) and career (507), yards rushing in a career (2011) and passes caught in a career with 85. Steve Loomis has the record for most passes attempted in a game (46), passes had intercepted in a game (tied with 4), fewest interceptions in a career with 11, and tied teammate Eric Sweet for most com- pletions in a game with 21, both completed 21 passes in a game this season. Robert Lozzi broke the record for most field goals in a game (3), in a season (11). consecutive field goals (5) , and tied the career field goal record (11). Dan Herbert broke the record for most interceptions in a season with eight.
