Artichoke Mascot Fight Splits ScottsdaleCC Students and Board
In 1972 Scottsdale Community College voters chose the Artichoke with pink and white colors, but the administration rejected it. A October vote favored the Artichoke against the Drovers and blue and white, yet again the board dismissed the result. The clash reflects student concerns over athletics and district budget policies, with repeated disputes among students, the administration, the student government, and the faculty senate. The board now faces renewed review as it seeks to resolve the campus conflict.

Cultural outrage endangers Kirov tour and detente
The cancellation of the Kirov Ballet tour to New York follows a sharp U S reaction to Soviet emigration policy. Valery Panov and his wife Galina face possible emigration limits prompting threats of empty houses at the City Center in Manhattan and prompting arts leaders to pressure Moscow.
