There are many different ob-
jects in this world that people
use for security. Many consider
the dollar sign as a piece of
security. Prudential Life In-
surance offers peace of mind to
others. But for Chuck Hudson,
a
combination
restaurant/tavern four miles
from the College will be his
security blanket.
Just last week, Hudson
became the new owner of the
Beavercreek Tavern
on
Beavercreek Road.
After 27 years of teaching,
what gave the College athletic
director the incentive to go put
down money for a tavern? “In­
flation and the whole lot,” he
said. “When it comes time to
retire in 15 years, I would like
some extra money to help fulfill
my retirement plans.”
Coordinating time between
the tavern and his teaching job
at the College has not
been easy for Hudson. “I
haven’t been to the tavern sin­
ce Friday,” Hudson said, “and
I just bought it last week,” he '
added.
This is Hudson’s first venture
into the business world. “I’ve
just been teaching for the last
27 years,” Hudson said,
“although my wife’s aunts and
uncles worked at a tavern.” He
added, “I hope it will rub off on
me.”
“We also have a restaurant,”
said the gregarious Hudson of
his investment’s other of­
ferings. “We serve great din­
ners,” he proudly added. “It is
a family restaurant.”
Hudson is hoping to' lure
patrons from the College
community. “I’m hoping to see
people from the Colleqe over
there,” he said. “I’d like to see
some business from the
College.”
His
high
hopes
are
reasonable. After all, Hudson
has
all
his
monetary
possessions couped up in his
Beavercreek
Tavern.
“Everything I’ve got is into this
tavern,” Hudson said, “so I
hope it makes some money.”

“I’ve only taken a beginning
course in shiatsu, so I’m far
from being an expert,” Evans
explained, “but people found
out about what I was doing and
wanted me to share my
knowledge of shiatsu with
them.”
Evans eventually gave
demonstrations of shiatsu
techniques to various classes
on campus ’ and put on a
seminar for the Focus on
Women/Men’s Resource
Program.
“After the
three-hour
seminar we had 72 very
relaxed
people,” Evans
laughed. “They say that shiatsu
has been used as a disease
curer, but I certainly don’t want
to be known as a healer.”
“There has to be something
to it,” Evans said. “I’ve had
pressure applied to my toes

Evans discovered shiatsu
three years ago when a friend
who had taken a course
demonstrated its effectiveness
to her.
“I was amazed at how im-
mediately relaxed I became
and at how long the relaxing ef-
fects last,” Evans said.

“Just the other day a girl
came into my office who was
feeling stress and wanted me to
use shiatsu to relieve the ten­
sion build up,” Evans said, “but
it’s just something that I’ve
found very helpful. I can use it
for a long time to come.”
