Thursday, October 27, 1966 THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN Page 3 Day Student Government by Charles Sutton The most logican and controversial topic for a Day Student Senator to discuss would, of course, be the parking problem. As it Btaii'li now the areas in wt.leh Day Students are to parN are (1) Behind the Baptist Church—this area will be for Day Students only. It has been used by "B" sticker cars up till no v. With the new regulations from the Health and Safety Office there will be no cars other than those with "C" stickers parked there. This area is to be enlarged and graveled. (2) At Reid lym—This parking lot is pavrl but is not being fully utilized by the Day Students. (3) In the McKee Mud Field—This excuse for a parking lot Is the one used by the majority of Day Students. However, as we all know It will not be long until a bui1 ling is planted there and we wiV no longer have that area. In:!ud'd In the new parking riil'ri; the area beside McKee (the old playground area and both sides of the road behind McKee) will be used by the faculty and staff cars. According to official count there are 581 *C" sticker cars and ade- quat parking facilities are now bei ig provided. The biggest complaint that Day Students have concerning thesn parking areas is the distant fro i ihtui their classes. No one likes to have" to walk through mud a half a mile to get to class, but with the expansion work which is being done, the spac for closer parking facil- iti.'-i is just not there. As for our ln.ing to walk to class, ever;, student on this campus has i< • n!k to his classes. Walking i^ Just another price we must pay for progress. The second complaint is our losing the McKee area. This area J; to be used by Faculty and Staff cars. The Senate will be watching this area to see if it is utilized by the Faculty, and if it is not fully utilized the lot will be returned to us. Several memtiTS of our faculty only teach two or three hours in the morr.'ng and then leave for the rest if the day. We want to see jii"t how much of the area they use and for how long. Another factory to consider is that we are PAYING students of this school, but the faculty is BEING paid 1 ' ,ch us. I would like to quoU the Business Manager of Appalachian College, whose statement is very apropos. . . "The i d ninistratton and faculty of Appalachian realize that If it wcii ■..' for the students we would not be here. It is our job to s<rve the students." Our parking problem Is just another grovii;; pain which we are going to have to live with until we are able to cure it. If any Day Student has any plan or suggestion for ">■: remedy of the problem any of the Student Representative.' will be glad to hear it, for this • i roblem which we all must hely to solve." THE CATS PAW by THE PAW I have finally recovered from Homecoming and will once a- gain endeavor to grace the pages of this journal. How does that grab you. It's about time I guess, for the wheels of education grind on relentlessly In this sanctum of knowledge. One gazes about him here In the valley and wonders what am 1 doing here. You are in college. This is fact. In college one supposedly becomes independent and is weaned from the tie that binds. Bit, here in this retreat, is it completely severed? Why hell no. Think about it some Friday afternoon when you see the mass exodus. Think about when you want to do something out of the routine and the people in THAT building say thumbs down Think about it when you read the stu- den handbook with its rules and regulations. College is a place where wo are supposedly trained for going out there in that big wide world. Yet, we are never given the chance to grow with the times. I've come to the conclusion that there's a big gate just below the Bantam Chef that some people think closes off the rest of the world. Well there's not and it's time some people iHiiiiiiuiiuiuiiiiiiiuiiinirannini UNIVE.liiTY NOW? Continued from page 2 will be asking you to think of more in the future. This attitude concerns the role of athletics in the strengthening of a college and its advancement to a university. Mr. Upchurch calls for more emphasis on the athletic program here at Wes' em and its removal from a conference that limits athletic scholarships. Granted he first mentions the raising of money by the alumni (hopefully for use in academic areas) and the gaining of grants •for our beloved Alma Mater." thought about this. At 18 we carl crawl in rice paddies and be old enough to know better, at 21 we can vote, and at 2-5 our car insurance gets cheaper. Yet don't roll the knoll and bring back the goodies, don't stay out past 10:30 on week-days, and thw wonderful hour of 12:00 on weekends. Let us grow some people, let us grow. Food for thought: "Could it be possible to light some of the steps around here at night." "That goes for the hallways also, you could get killed falling around here at night." (Course everybody could get a flashlight) "An interesting class lecture." •Something about the progress of pre-conference recommendations." "Win a game." "More than one fraternity house on campus." The Paw's Platitude— •Criticism never hurt nobody." Usually I reserve these closing lines for the upcoming weekend sport's attraction. But, this week there's not much 1 can say except pray. But how much emphasis is placed on this as opposed to athletics? Do big-time athletics make a university?—a question, one of many, we can look at in the future. ANNOUNCEMENT Payment of winter quarter fees may be made at the Accounting Office after Nov. 1. The office will not be able to accept any fees checks before this date. Any student wishing to have an absentee ballot notarized may do so between 4:00 and 5:00 p.m. on weekdays at the College Accounting Office. See Mrs. Betty Ward. Feedback During the course of this quarter Mr. Dan Dietz has written many interesting, provoca- tine, and very good reviews. I have enjoyed them and, on the whole, agreed with them. In his last column, however, I feel that an Injustice was done Mr. Dietz's judgment of Becket Is that it is a Hollywood epic which flopped. In aU justice, I feel that blame should be placed, if there is any blame to be placed, not with Hollywood, but with the author of the play. Even If you agree - which I do not - that Becket Is an over-advertised, under- intellectual, farcically incompetent portrayal of a historical tragedy, Hollywood Is not to blame. Becket was written by the well known French playwright, Jean Anoullh. The movie is one of the regrettably few instances where Hollywood tampered hardly at all with the play. The only changes I noticed were in cases where we were told something in the play, but shown it in the movie. So, however harshly you choose to judge Hollywood, Mr. Dietz, it seems that in this case the fault was not theirs. I would now like to quote a few items from "The Last. Refuge" and attempttorefute them in defense of the movie. "For the first half of Becket is played for easy laughs," This is true, but only on the surface level. These "easy laughs" serve quite an important purpose To begin with, the first part establishes motivation for the change which is to occur In Becket. We see Becket bending to the king's will; he serves the honor of the king - but only because this is all he has. This is mad3 quite clear in several places but the one which I feel is the most important is this statement made by Becket €So long as Becket is obliged to Improvise his honor he will serve you (the king)." The point is this,, Becket mus'. improvise his honor because Henry is not his true king. He is a Norman, while Becket is one of the conquered race, the Saxons. Thus Becket is not bound to him by true honor As he says, the king's honor and God's honor are not the same. It is emplied that they might be if Henry was of the same race as Becket. A* least, if this were so, Becrtet could have honorably served the king. In the first part of the movie we also get the contrast between what Becket was and what he became. Wg are shown that Becket is not a saint, not a symbol, not a figure in a morality play —but a man. This, of course, continues throughout the movie. Becket is never allowed to become a mere tragic figure. He is always a man; first empty, then filled with the task of guarding the honor of God. Mr. Dietz also stated that Peter O'Toole Is 'no more king than he is Lawrence or Jim." Here I believe he has missed a crucial point. O'Toole is not supposed to be king in the sense with majesty of rank. He is always a fail to Becket. He comes off lacking majesty because he is not intended to have majesty. There is unspoken Irony in that Henry also lacks honor although he doesn't realize it. Finally, may I say that, although it Is certainly Mr. Dietz's privilege to dis'ike this movie, I feel that he should not mislead ihis readers by making them think that BECKET is merely another Hollywood hodgepodge written by an anonymous and incompetent screenwriter. However, he will, I am afraid, have to deal with critics rather more discriminating than those featured in "cheap, indiscriminate tabloid newspaper and movie and women's magazine reviews," Sincerely, Eleanor Kilpatrick o bench of gropes by James L. Bass In view of certain developments which have taken place since this quarter started, I would like to make a sort of forecast of events which I believe will, or could possibly occur. (1) The parking problem will be defined approximately 19 more times; with the ultimate result that absolutely nothing will be done about it (2) The girls of Albrlght-Ben- ton will stage a coup dtetatover Brown cafeteria because they only get one pork chop and the boys get two. (3) Dan Dietz will get another nasty letter about his column. (4) Stokely Carmichael will stage another riot in Atlanta one week before the gubernatorial election. (5) Lester Maddox will be elected governor of Georgia. (6) Confederate uniform and Mint Julep sales will increase one thousand per cent the week after the election in Georgia. (7) George Hamilton will go to Saigon to entertain U. S. troops. (8) George Hamilton will not return from Saigon. (9) McNamara will declare that the tide of the war is turning. (10) McNamara will have for gotten which way the tide is supposed to turn this time. 01) The Hell's Angels will enlist in the Marine Corps for training as Panzers. (12) On May 1, 1967, Hubert Humphrey will announce his intention to run for president in 1972. 03) On M.iy 2, 1967, the Stock Market will crash. 04) At least once, Jim Gudger will lose his temper and yell at the referee during a basketbaU game. 05) Henry Logan will score 40 points in this game to make Jim Gudger feel better. (16) The Student Senate will pass a resolution that line- breaking become a hanging offense. (17) A mob of line-breakers will lynch the Student Senate. (18) John Vernelson will find a job. (19) John Lennon will enter the priesthood. (20) George Lincoln Rockwell will become a Jehovah's Witness. (21) A group of students will organize a free university in which Psy. Ill will be replaced by LSD 1. (22) John Keeler will produce his best column; one that even he doesn't understand. OF GRECIAN TEETH by John Keeler Rosl the Protector closed his dark wings over the mind and body of the man, and the night was quiet The body of the man lay motionless on the soft grass. His lips were soft and without the hard line that had been their formation for so long a time. His body was relaxed and seemed to blend into the tree trunk and the grass around. Gaf, the Source of Light, entered his mind and began the work that is usually known as dreams, but is often more than we care to admit or even consider for more than an Instant The mind of the sleeping man began quietly and slowly to leave the dor nant body. The separation of the physical and the mental, or spiritual if you prefer, began, and the light from Gaf began to fade into a fog that turned into a wall to separate the mind from the light and leave it caught in the maze of lines. The mind could not go forward or backward; it was frozen between the brilliant lines. They blinded it and the brilliance of the colors deafened it They seemed to spin around and go down toward the Earth at a frightening speed. They still existed in the vacuum that is the avoidance of space but the sensation of speed was there; the mind knew it and could do nothing to stop it It saw the Earth flash by and then total blackness and absence of all sound or feeling. There was nothing but blackness and lack of sound or awareness. The mind was caught but it could not realize that It was or recognize that it even existed. The net of the Maxj, the forces of the non-existant, had caught and retained it is its web. Campus Politics by John At a certain time of the year, one. may see furtive figures trotting around at all hours of the day and night, slipping in and out of rooms and talking with anyone unlucky enough to get caught These people are called politicians. You may consider them a nuisance and unnecessary, but I would like to attempt to prove otherwise. It is of particular interest to me as I consider these furtive figures more or less as brethen. One of the primary gripes heard at Western Carolina is that there is little communication between the student body and student government People feel that they are being left out or hoodwinked. One of the best ways to find out what is going on is to talk with the persons involved in government When you speak of government , you are speaking of politics and politicians. The campus politicians can tell you more about what is going on than anyone else you can find, and they are always willing to discuss the current state of the government with you. Roper Every now and then a group* of politicians who are allied with no one in particular get together and form a working agreement If the Greeks are dominant, they may call It the *non-Greek" movement, or they may call It the "3rd force," or fourth, or something. A famous line of poetry warns all to "Beware the Jabberwock." Take heed. If we are extremely lucky this year, we may have a second, third, or maybe even a fourth force on campus. 1 personally feel for the organizers of a "force" of any kind, as I have never been able to seel any sort of stable, lasting organization at Western Carolina. I do not personally have objections to any sort of organized political movement: I simply wish them welL We could actually have an interesting year if enough people become political. While all these people form organizations and machines, something could happen to all of them. As I have said be-
