No full textShort story "What's Your Name Boy?" by Carla BosworthThe boy then tried to explain, "I woke up today in this strange place. I don't know where this place is. I don't
know how I got here. I don't know where I was. Alii know is something happened to my head. And you people
helped me. I really don't know who I am. Do you believe me?"
The two nodded their heads at this strange story. "We'll help you." Mary promised.
I'll think of a name to call you," Joshua volunteered.
The boy felt so much better. He could see that they trusted him now and didn't believe that he was "in some
kinda trouble".
Mr. and Mrs. Turner came into the bedroom now. Mrs. Turner asked how he felt.
"Much better," the boy replied.
Mr. Turner sat on the edge of the bed. "I went to town this morning and talked to Doc Simms. He was here
the other day to look at you. He said that the best thing for you to do is to take it easy for a while and
gradually you might start remembering things."
"I know what we can call you!" Joshua suddenly exclaimed. "Travis."
"Yah that's great," Mary chimed in. "Travis would have been our older brother. He died when he was a tiny
baby."
"Okay Travis, let's go get something to eat," ordered Mr. Turner.
It went without saying that Travis was welcome in the Turner home. Joshua took the cot from the storage
room where he had been sleeping since Travis arrived, and put it in the little bedroom next to the other bed.
That night the two boys lay side by side talking long into the night.
"I sure am glad you're here," Joshua said. "Mary's alright but we get kinda tired of each other once in a
while."
"Isn't there anybody else living close by?" Travis asked.
"Fetzers live a couple miles away. But they don't have any kids," Joshua explained. "There used to be a
different family living there. They had a boy named Jim. He was the same age as me. We had a lot of fun
together. We went fishing a lot. We made our own poles. I remember one time. I had a really big fish on my
line. He was so big he broke off the end of my pole. And that Jim-he was always so quick in everything. He
jumped right into the water and grabbed my line. Then I grabbed Jim by his shirt and pulled on him. We
finally got that fish outa' the water. And he was a nice one alright."
"Is there a river around here that you fished in?" Travis asked.
"It's a stream that cuts through our land. I'll take you there. It's real pretty. One morning me and Jim saw a
deer drinking from the stream. We sneaked closer and saw two tiny fawns playing in the grass. It was
beautiful. Then all of a sudden the mother deer heard us. She jumped up and ran across the prairie as fast
as a bullet. Even the little ones can run fast. Mary got pretty close to a deer once too. There's lots of animals
around here. Once me and Jim found a baby racoon in the woods. Jim kept it in their barn for a couple
weeks. Then one night he got out somehow and ran away. I think he liked the woods better." The two boys lay
quiet for a while. Then Joshua said sleepily, "We had a favorite place on the other side of the hill. Called it
"the rocks". Wewent there a lot." Joshua's eyes were closed now. "Mine and Jim's place," he said softly as
he drifted off to sleep.
Travis thought for a while about "the rocks", trying to imagine what the place might be like. Then he too
fell asleep for the night.
The next day Mrs. Turner took a small suit case from the chest of drawers. "This belongs to you Travis,"
she said. Mary, Joshua, and Travis rummaged through it together. There were some extra clothes in the
case,a rusty old jacknife, a large feather, four shiney stones, a small black prayer book, and two strings of
beads, none of which looked familiar to Travis.
Travis regained his strength as the days went on and he found the Turner farm a very exciting place. He
helped Joshua tote water and Mary rob eggs from the chickens each morning. They helped Mr. Turner as
much as they could in the fields and took turns riding the old plow-horse around the barn. Early in the
morning they frolicked through the woods to go fishing and wading in the stream on the other side. At night
they sat on the porch counting the stars while Mr. Turner played peaceful music on his harmonica.
Oneday when Joshua and Travis were exploring in the woods they sat on a rock to talk. "Last night,"
Travis said, "Ilaid awake a while after you fell asleep. I saw myself running. I was afraid and running hard. I
sawit real clearly in my mind."
"Maybe you remembered something that happened to you before." replied Joshua.
"Joshua, do you know the place where you and your father found me?"
"Su re I do. It's a cou pie mi les down the road towa rd town."
"Will you take me there?"
Joshua agreed and they headed for the road. When they got to the place Joshua pointed out just where
Travis was lying when they had found him.
Travis gazed down the empty road. "This could be the same road that came to my thoughts last night. It
looks the same. But then most roads do look alike."
"Travis let's go home," Josua urged.

DEBORAH DEWALT
Celebration!
Theend of a term
And the letti ng off of
strange requests-
"I'm kicking you out cuz
I'vegotta study geography."
I sit on a stone
on a hill
beside a cemetary
And I see little tiny
ant-people below
me, scurryi ng and
bustling about
And they hurry away
busy in thei r
kinetic missions
And I laugh
for it seems so meaningless
when I sit on a stone
on a hill
beside a cemetary.
To My Carouser
Throwing
The now familiar books in
a corner
And lighting out
For the nearest, barriest bar
Then Ilet the wind of wisdom
whisper in my ear
And I hear it say, "Peace."
Relaxing
In the spreading warmth
of a tequila sunrise
Mellowing out
Ona double screwdriver
And "Just one more
before we leave."
There were times when I was very happy
very me
like when I looked
back
and caught his smile
In the next bar laughing
At words. "Another round here!"
Hustling
thegirls
And hugging
them close ...
There were ti mes when I was very content
very me
like when warm fingers
ran up and down
my back
rubbing it into relaxation
Home at dawn plugging
The earphones into the
long-play tape deck
Slipping
Under the bed clothes
Stretchi ng
The length of the bed
There were times when I was very peaceful
very me
like when Ilaid
back
on his shoulder
There are times when I am very sad,
very depressed
very lonely
Sleeping fast. this is also very me
like when I look
back
on all that has past
and I think that all is
behind
me, that little is
If I cou Id choose
(And I imagine I could)
I'd be down there in river row
(I don't know how to row).
Explore an island before
me,
and when I sit in the corner with
my face
to the wall.
You ask me, "Where have you been?"
I have no answer

No full textPhotographs of the retirement party for BJC President Ralph WernerThe President's Day
May 13 was a day of festivities and celebrations
at BJC. Just as it was a feature day of the year,
especiallyfor Mr. Werner, it deserves a feature page
inour annual. President Werner retired this year and
onthe 13th an ice-cream and cake social, complete
with balloons and punch was held in his honor. He
wasgiven a plaque from the Board of Student
Governors with Les Olhauser making the presenta-tion.
As everyone ate and enjoyed themselves, BJC's
"Four of a kind" (Dave Demke, Tony Brown, Jim
Andrews, and Dan Dailey) entertained with barber
shop quartet numbers-including a special song
written in honor of Mr. Werner. Contrary to popular
belief, you don't need a riot to bring television
cameras to a college campus; all you need is and
ice-creamsocial for your president. Our party was in
the5 o'clock news on television.
A special banquet followed in the evening, with
tributesto President Werner, MC'd by faculty mem-berJ.

No full textPhotograph and summary of BJC Visiting Scholars (lecturers and creative arts performers) for the 1976-1977 academic yearprogram started early this year, in September, when
musicians Marvin and Karen McCoy presented
clinics in brass instrumentation and gave a recital.
In October, Dr. Leon O. Jacobson, Director of the
Franklin Memorial Research Institute at the Univer-sity
of Chicago, visited campus with his programs
relating to the field of medicine. Dr. Jacobson also
received the prestigious North Dakota Roughrider
Award while in Bismarck.
Charlene Burningham presented workshops on
Fiber Design, in October, in conjunction with the
visiting scholars program.
Drama director, Jane Grey Stewart, must have
been very proud to have a former student of hers,
Visiting Scholar and actor par excellence, Gordy
Weiss returned to campus and star in BJC's fall
theater performance "Stop the World." Mr. Weiss, a
professional actor, and the rest of the cast per-formed
four nights in a row to sellout crowds.
In December, Swasticas and Nazi Films appeared
on Schafer Heights. Had Hitler come to Bismarck?
No. It was Dr. Michael Meyer, of California State Uni-versity,
lecturing on Nazi Culture and explaining the
Germany of Hitler's time.
It wasn't Louis Armstrong, you heard in the halls
January 20th, although it was his genre of music
as Jaki Byard and his musicians put on a Jazz Con-cert.
Multi-talented, multi-instrumentalist-compos-er-
arranger-conservatory professior-practicing jazz-man,
Mr. Byard was here for several days conducting
clinics with students in the music department.
The well known writer Susan Brownmiller was
here during the first days of spring with a Sym-posium
on Sexual Assault-rape. Funded through
the N. D. Combined Law Enforcement Council, the
Symposium looked at rape from a variety of per-spectives.
Faculty, students, and the general public
turned out in large numbers to hear Miss Brown-miller.
A second Roughrider Award winner visited cam-pus
later on in the year. Era Bell Thompson, native
North Dakotan and editor of Ebony magazine, met
with. English and journalism students. An evening
address by Miss Thompson was open to the public
and received favorable attention.
Visiti ng Sch olars
In an effort to enhance the curricula, BJC spon-sors
a Visiting Scholars program. Individuals or
groups with a specialty or program visit the campus,
putting on shows, speaking, conducting classes, and
working with students on an individual basis. The
