The major way Thunderbirds keep in touch with each other ami with their school is through THE THUNDERBIRD. our official alumni bulletin. This is sent free of charge to more than seven thousand alumni world-wide three times a year. Additionally, ipoa request, alumni can receive listings which give name, company affiliation and title, and mailing address of other T-Birds by states and countries. The Alumni Office sends mailing labels to any alumni who wish to organize a T-Bird "get together," and it pays flier announcement mailing costs of these meetings once a year per group upon request.

We offer students information on which companies have hired from AGSIM, how many Thun­ derbirds have been employed by each company and how many are soU with each respective com­ pany, which companies in­ dividual alumni are currently with and their titles and ad­ dresses, where alumni are by city and country, and many other

MTV ices, (geographical lists iat>' «md country) of alumni by company affiliation and mailing address are available to students also at nominal charge. Each time THE THUNDEHBIRD is published, the current issue is handed out to all students as "alumni in residence" at the post office.

This office funnels offers to help the school from alumni to appropriate offices on campus. Alumni publicize the school for us. Almost half of all applicants cite alumni recommendation as a major reason for their attending AGSIM. Alumni Educational Counselors, under the auspices of John Arthur, recruit on cam­ puses all over the country. Successful visiting alumni act as guest lecturers while they are on campus. T-Birds encourage their companies to hire more in­ ternational management talent from this school. Hiey give financial support through the Annual Fund.

Students serve by hosting alumni during campus visits and by reporting to alumni meetings in many areas what is going on at AGSIM now.

A businessman is "aggressive: A businesswoman is pushy.

A businessman is good on details: She's picky.

He loses his temper because he's so involved in his job: She's bitchy.

When he's depressed or hangover, everyone tiptoes past his office:

She's moody so it must be her time of the month.

He follows through: She doesn't know when to quit

He stands firm: She's hard.His judgments are ... her

prejudices.

He is a man of the world: She's been around.

He drinks because of the ex­ cessive job pressures: She's a lush.

He isn't afraid to say what he thinks: She's mouthy.

He exercises authority diligently: She's power mad.

He's close-mouthed: She's secretive.

He climbed the ladder of success: She slept her way to the top.

He's a stern taskmaster: She's hard to work for.

from the L.A. Times August 21,1975

Thursday. August 21, 1975, the United States officially lifted its 12-year-old ban on sales to Cuba by American firms operating in third countries.

The State Department an­ nounced this was one of four measures representing an at­ tempt to ease the U.S. policy toward third countries wanting to do business with Cuba. The other three are:

an end to a prohibition on aid to countries which allow their ships or aircraft to carry goods to and from Cuba

the initiation of steps to modify regulations which deny bunkering in the U.S. in third country ships engaged in the Cuba trade

a request to Congress to

repeal legislation restricting certain aid to countries trading with Cuba.

According to White House press secretary Ron Nissen, lifting the ban on sales to Cuba by American firms operating in third countries "doesn't really relate to bilateral relations with Cuba.

"It relates more to American relations with other inter- American countries," Nissen said. "It is inconsistent for the US. to stand in the way of what these other countries want to do."

Sen. George McGovern com­ mended President Ford on these latest efforts to re-establish good terms with Cuba. "The 14-year American effort to isolate Cuba through economic sanctions has been a self-defeating mistake," he said.

Part II of a Series

A. M. Marksin 1937, on my first overseas

assignment, there were 2000 North American employees in the largest operating oil refinery in the world - Araba, in the Dutch West Indies. Today that operation has grown and there are less than 25 North Americans there. In 1949 when first assiped to the marketing operations of a related oil company in the Philippines, there were 49 North Americans engaged solely in the marketing of products. In 1985 with an increased marketing operation, an ejrploration venture of considerable proportions, a refiner)1 , all encumbered with more complex government relations, there were 8 North Americans in residence.

EDITORIAL COMMENTTale of the Dribrednuht Forest... A Modern Fcbls

Once upon a time, in the forest of MISGA. there lived many happy prosperous creatures - beavers, rabbits, deer and squirrels lived off the rich, sunny slopes of MISGA. The forest was renowned for its booming major industry, the harvesting of the Dribrednuht (s> (pronounced "dry bread nuts) every three to four months, when a new crop of these rare nuts would fall to the ground to sprout.

Far years, Chuekie Wood- chuck. Chief Harvester of me dribrednuhts, tended the groves of bushes bearing the nuts, for it was absolutely necessary that the nuts find perfectly suitable surroundings in order for them to

properly sprout. For this they needed guidance Once sprouted. they grew into magnificent trees, plants, vines of every imaginable sort, to bear the rarest of rare fruits, vegetables and berries of all varieties. It was indeed a unique nut this dribrednuht. And so...

One day, the forest was athunder with the piercing screams of the dribrednuht bushes - whining and moaning, they called for Weasel, Sir ov William, the official overlord who lorded ovwthe region, to explain their complaints "We are unhappy!" they cried. "But why, oh how. can you be unhappy in this beautiful forest, where the sun shines aD year long, where

"Silence! oh Weasel. Sir ov William!" shouted one brave little dribrednuht as he hung from a branch of his bush, "We too love this beautiful forest. But we are unhappy because we know what awaits us down there on the ground. There is no room for us to be happy any more!! Ami we must be perfectly satisfied in order to prosper and gram. Bat something is amiss! Our predecessors are not growing as they should be, where they have been planted. What's more, rumor has it that some of our last crop never even found proper places to grow. There they were left, out in the cold forest, alone, left to fend for themselves, something they had never learned to do. This must stop if our forest is to keep the respect it has gained from far and wide!"

He stresses (is such a man must have a "sixth sense" for international business, a knack for being in the right place at the right time, an ability to find and size up business opportunities with uncanny accuracy, the decisiveness to take advantage of and to finalize deals quickly. (2> Such a man works with per­ suasion ratter than traditional authority. He possesses an outstanding ability with verbal expression, the sale of ideas, the quickest possible acceptance of his sincerity and trustworthiness. (3) He is informed and never stops learning. His mind is stretched beyond the world of riKin<«K anrf the day to day responsibilities of his business, with the elasticity to relate ap­ parently unrelated factors to benefits for his company. (4) He is sensitive to the tastes and distastes of others. Ever con­ scious that blunders are em­ barrassing and costly, his background and knowledge and his feeling for people minimize words and actions which may produce offended feelings. He talks in terms of problems of his audience not because it is politic but because he thinks in terms of the problems of fee other man.

(5) Even more than a manager" this successful internatwnafist is a diplomat capable of turning a awkward situation with possible disastrous results into a business benefit. Illustrating the point, an episode is quoted of a meeting with government officials in which an accompanying business man asked, white negotiating the establishment of a plant in a given country, "Can we repatriate oar capital im­ mediately?"

The international manager recognizing that the question was asked too soon and too sharply with the possibility of crippling negotiations said "This question reminds me. gentlemen, of a talk in which my wife to be and I were involved with our minister before we were married. In one of our conversations, the topic turned to divorce laws. The minister quipped that here we were talking divorce and we were not even married yet. The question of repatriation of capital you see. follows the same context. This question is foremost in the minds of our board of directors and will surely be asked of us when this undertaking is considered." The tension was eased, the meeting healed back to a favorable agreement.

(6) He knows his company's goals. This man is profit - minded and never lets this become overshadowed by secondary considerations. (7) Above all, this successful international manager is flexible and a man of actwn. maintaining bis effectiveness no matter how seriously the ground rules change in a given location or with due concern for the number of national climates in which be may perform over a short spar, of &ne.

Why Here?by David C. Bar nett

At a recent gala I found myself burgeoning with a goodly amount of spirits, and as some of us all do at times, fell into a state of confusion, wondering just why Fm here and what I'm doing.

Hence I struck up a rapid gait towards a huddle of fellow T- bards, PoUyanna-like, in order to lift myself back to my earlier state of cheery madness. Lo, did I fall back in dismay! All of them were thoroughly engaged in actually talking about the same

said with urgency in his voice.The forest slept restlessly that

night. All the animals, and of course the dribrednuhts, waiting to be planted, anxiously won­ dered what decision Weasel, Sir ov William would make.

Weeks went by, months. The latest crop of nuts fell from the bushes, never heard from again. Then, one afternoon, the an­ nouncement from Weasel's hill came. Sir ov William had made a decision. AH the forest inhabitants gathered round, excited to hear what change would be made. "After careful consideration, I

have decided a change is definitely called for," said Weasel, Sir ov William.

Cheers rose from the crowd. What could it be?

"In recognition of many years of fine service as 'Chief Har­ vester,* Chuckie Woodchuck is being given a new title of Number One in Charge of Harvesting' and will report directly to me. In this way, bis talents will be put to their optimal use at the top. I win then begin looking for a suitable Chief Harvester," ended Weasel, Sir ov William with a friendly smite.

One rather cogent and sagacious fellow, speaking as though his voice had been wrapped in an unctious slick, was proceeding to drape AGSIM in svruDv beauty. The others with looks of ghastly incredibility on their faces, moaned in unison as they heard tales of flybacks and lovely jobs far away, in other tropics and citadels. (I found myself beginning to moan as well - and incidentally quickly pon­ dered the affect of mass paranoia).

Then one of my Bourbon-like reactionary (radical?) friends and co-quanderer bit back savagely, his words flailing in­ sults upon the hallowed halls of AGSIM.

And as I have the bad habit of interrupting I asked for further explanation by posing the age-old question, "Why are yon here?"

Our Bourbon friend smiled sadly as I gazed at his puerile eyes. I figured be was nearly an average T-bird (about 25, Western accent, attended a B^ school, single, male) and an­ swered as if he sought to impale

"But I'm only depressed because of the students like him incessantly complaining (sur­ prised at myself for so spon­ taneously saying so, that is realizing the source of my unhappiness at AGSIM). Besides, if the students here would only crawl out of their little sheDed worlds and learn to take ad­ vantage of opportunity, any opportunity, not just AGSIM.

Bulbous eyes, surfacing atatiy to peer curiously from the safety of a metaKc green swamp, observe students func­ tioning as smoothly as V-8 engines. But priests, examining the entrails of thunderous birds, find the hearts misplaced, and seeds as black as death, emitting a strange odor.

The Roc Talks Sportsby Rocco Gattuso

(Editor's note: The following is fee first of a new regular column covering the AGSIM sports scene)

After a few weeks of attending school here in T-Bird Land, many of the new students are probably wondering what there is to do around here in their free time. As a matter of fact, I imagine a lot of bird semester students are still wondering toe same thing. If you haven't already noticed, A.G.S.I.M. does leave a student a certain amount of spare time - like whenever you're not sleeping.

To fill this great void in time you eound possibly participate in some of the "recreational activi­ ties o: the "Locals" such as: (1) water skiing in the irrigation canai . (2) gfla monster hunting - bare; nded, or (3) going to Sun City id watching the golf carts go "b-

If;... j don't find these ideas too enticing, you could take a suggestion from Johnny Carson and irt your own business sell- American jewelry to Ind If all else fails, you mi;: onsider participating in the .S.I.M. sports program.

Ti right, there is one. T- Bin i't exactly the General

Motors of the athletic world, having a sports budget ap­ proximately .1 percent as large as a major undergraduate in­ stitution, but it does have a good intramural program which stresses student participation. The current athletic director, Phil Lacy, has instituted a program for the semester which will include a flag football league, a coed volleyball league, and of course, the ever popular but prestigious tennis tournament. Also, T-Bird will have representative teams in the Arizona State Industrial Soccer League and also the Glendale Men's Softball League.

For students interested enough or crazy enough to want to learn how to play golf, lessons are being offered this semester for a small fee. For the more in­ dustrious athlete or even for the guy who just wants to make the scene at muscle beach party, there is a weight room located on the west side of the south hangar. The facilities there are basically inadequate, bordering on pathetic, but a weight - lifting dub is now being formed by John Martin, with a sign-up sheet currently located in the weight room. If a sufficient number of people join, money will be provided for the improvement of

the facilities. If not, the ad­ ministration will probably wait until someone is hurt with the faulty equipment, and then the facilities will be improved.

Tennis enthusiasts at T-Bird Land will be happy to see two new tennis courts now being built in the southwest corner of the campus, equipped with lights. Too bad the other four courts will be torn up as soon as the school has enough money to start construction on the new auditorium. Although there will eventually be only two available courts, because of the lights there will always be a time students can play tennis without waiting for a court - 4:00 in the morning.

The intramural program might not be your stepping stone into the '76 Olympics but it is a good opportunity to do something different, get some exercise, and get to know your fellow students. Well, everything has its drawbacks.

If you want to participate, sign- up sheets are in the post office (as if you haven't seen them.) Referees are also needed and paid for their services. Go ahead and participate. If you're not careful, you might even have a good time.

Another first for Glendale.
