Thursday, November 10, 1966 OF GRECIAN TEETH by John Keeler I was walking around the other day looking for a kind soul to lend me enough money to get a hot dog when,! met these two guys on the side walk. They were normal enough looking guys, no rotten teeth or ugly scars so that you'd notice them in a crowd. Normal looking gays in all respects, except for the conversation that was taking place between them. One of them said mat he was going to get drunk that night and sleep in a tree. That's fine with me. You know, if he wants to get drunk and sleep in trees or roll Ln mud or even get down on all fours and bite fat, bald" headed men on the ankle I don't care. I'm not fat and I've still got a Ml head of hair so if that's their kick I'm sure not going to knock it. Well, anyway, one says: "I'm going to get drunk and sleep in a tree." "That's good," said the other. "Yes, that is good," replied the first, "I'm going to get drunk and sleep in a tree. That's good because trees are good and so is sleep." "Yes," said the second, "Trees and sleep are good." They nodded their heads in sober agreement and continued down the sidewalk. This line of reasoning intrigued me so I forgot about the hot dog and followed them for a while. "I saw a green goat yesterday," was the next sentence that I was able to catch. "Goats arent green," came the reply. "I saw a green one," said the first. The second spat on a nearby sunflower and said nothing. •I know that the goat I saw was green," continued the first. "He was standing in a field and he blended with the grass. You had to look hard but if you took the time you could see that it was certainly a goat and he was most assuredly green," "Goats aint green," said the second as he stepped on a slug. •Yes they are, or this one was and that's good because he can hide in the grass and ambush wolves. That's good," stated the first "Yes, that is good" said the second, "But goats aint green they're white," "I prefer to think they're green," said the first very simply, and that's all he would say. They walked on for a while saying nothing. The first one looked back at me from time to time and stuck out his tongue. I didn't mind this much, judging that a guy who preferred to think goatsi were green was potentially dangerous and to be left alone„ I left them at a corner and didn't see them agai n until some time late the next afternoon. The one that preferred to think goats were green had quite a large bandage on his head but seemed in good spirits. They were talking but all I could catch was, "That's good," "Yes, that is good." Reaction To Taylors Election As counselor in charge of freshmen men while at Wake Forest law school, Taylor is not uninformed about the problems of a large college. He said that he was looking forward to meeting the members of the Western Carolina administration and "I am interested in working as much as possible with the college and its students. I particularly want to meet with student leaders as well as the faculty there." He added a note of appreciation to the WCC-YRCfor its help during his campaing. He mentioned that he wanted to include Western people in other programs that his party has in mind. "Students can," he said, "take part and build for themselves a better image in the community." Western's top five adminis- trators were asked yesterday to comment on the question, "What is the reaction of this office to the election of Republican Charles Taylor as district representative?" Paul A. Reid, president of the college, said last night, "the voters of this district have chosen this representative; we will work with the people's representative." Concerning the effect of Taylor's election upon the college, Reid said, "I don't know. We have no way of knowing." Vice-president of the college Frank Brown stated that he had never had the chance to meet Taylor. "I dont know him, but I'm sure he's certain to be qualified. We will do everything possible to inform him of the college and the needs of a rapidly growing institution and we will work with him however possible. Again, I have never met Mr. Taylor, but I expect to In the very near future." Dean of the college W. N. Turner said, "We have lost a good friend of the college, but we hope that Mr. Taylor will also prove to be the college's friend. I know that he has expressed an interest in the college." FROM Page 1 James Kirkpatrick, business manager, said that he had no comment on the outcome of the election. Taylor L. Huskins, dean of student affairs, stated that he felt sure Taylor would help WCC in every possible to him. Marcellus Buchanan, elected district solicitor in Tuesday's voting, said that he had no particular reaction to Taylor's election. "As a democratic candidate myself, I backed all the democratic candidates in the election," he said. Lacy Thornburg, the defeated incumbent representative, was not able to be reached for comment. Student Rights FROM Page 2 juniors that to try to have the college remove the now-in effect "undesirable conduct" clause would hurt rather than benefit our cause. Seniors may still remember the trouble resulting when drinking offenses were defmd in a great deal of detail. We are also lucky this year to have have a dean of men and dean of women who may use their best judgement on "undesirable conduct." I might add that not one case has gone up before the SFJC this fall. If we did try to gel overly specific there would be no room for sensible judgement. This concludes the three- part presentation to you the students of the Student Bill of Rights. It will go before the Student Senate on Monday night and, if ratified there, then on to the different committees. Please lend your support in any way possible. Washington, D. C—The National Academy of Sciences-National Resca:-;a ^onncilliasbeen called upon again to advise the National Science Foundation in the selection of candidates for the Foundation's program of graduate and regular post- docoral fellowships. THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN Journalism Curriculum Offered Here By SAM HULL Journalism has finally found its place of importance at Western Carolina. Previously a minor niche within the English curriculum, it was offered as a one-hour elective entitled "Newspaper Production." Journalism has now branched out extensively, presently offering a concentration of 31 hours. The course in newspaper production was taught from 1963 through 1965 by Henry G. Morgan, an instructor in the English department who served as advisor to the Western Carolinian. This course aided student writers on the newspaper staff by giving them the basic techniques of news, sports, and feature writing. At this point, journalism at Western began its departure from the embryonic stage. As Morgan stated, "A desire was expressed by publishers and editors of newspapers in this area that a fuller program of journalism be established. In 1964-65 this program was devised and initiated Fall Quarter, 1966." The journalism concentration was established at WCC with a •general slant toward the small town, community newspaper" in answer to the regional need. "Western Carolina now has the only journalism department west of Greensboro," Morgan said. Community Newspaper Production, "a course designed to prepare the student for work on the local weekly newspaper," is one such result. The other courses offer to the aspiring journalist a background in reporting techniques, editing, editorials, newspaper design, layout, and make=up. "These course offerings are such a nature as to produce journalists competent in all of most areas of work," Morgan ex= plained. The journalism department is still in its progressive stage, according to Dr. Mabel T. Crum, head of the English department, and largely responsible for establishing the Journalism concentration. She predicts a full major in journalism "if the concentration proves popular with the students and the students can do something worthwhile with it. If the demand grows, so will the department," Morgan, who serves as financial advisor, believes that the "Western Carolinian" plays an important part in the journalism students' training. "The 'Carolinian' is already, in fact, a community newspaper. It has a larger circulation (approx. 7000) per issue and per week than the Sylva-Herald." Mrs. Jean English, head of the journalism curriculum and advisor to the Carolinian, is impressed with the improvement in the calibre of writing and lay-out, "I want the newspaper to benefit as a result of the student journalist. The fundamentals learned in the classroom should be applied in the production of the paper," she stated. She also feels that the paper should be "as much student-operated as possible with no interference from the advisor." "I try to serve as an advisor, not a censor. The only way the student can become a good journalist is to learn by trial- and-error." The future of journalism at Western Carolina is bright Dr. Crum sees improvement in the newspaper each year as a result of the journalism courses. Mrs. English hopes new courses will be included to produce "well-rounded, more competent journalists." Morgan fore- Page 3 THE CATS PAW hv THF PAW by THE PAW Alas, I seem to have fallen Into the same rut as everyone else in Cullowhee. I complain generally along the same lines. This, I hope, will come to an end today; nevertheless, I doubt it I guess that in my complaining I have overlooked my own philosophy, that variety is the spice of life. No sweat, fellow students, for the weather in Cullowhee this year is going to be mild again. I don't know if you attended the sacrifice to the snow god, •Sludge," at Hunter Library this past week or not. For the past four years there have been at least one or two men or women impaled on the swinging glass doors at the "House Mrs. 3, built." Surely someone could figure out a suitable answer to this problem. Perhaps: (1.) a piece of red tape could be placed at eye level on the door. This red tape would not necessarily cost any money, but could be taken from the tremendous supply already in existence here; (2.) bars could be attached to the doors; (3.) the glass could be broken out at the first of each quarter and replaced at the beginning of the holidays. If these suggestions don't sound logical, how about some from the local gentry. Of course. I doubt that it will do any good either way, for the problem has been here for years wlthotfll being solved. A great big pat on the back from the Paw to the fine band here at Western. One actually doesn't want to miss a halftime show anymore. It is a welcome and. needed change, and high time somebody started thinking modern around here. Maybe some other groups should start thinkine the same wav. Food for thought: A dorm hostess with some understanding of why we don't have to grow old because they are. They still haven't put any lights around some of the steps. Somebody's gonna break their necks and sue the school one of these days. One day soon it's to be Western Carolina Women's College and Western Carolina Men's College? Why is a certain team on our schedule? (Composite score for three games, 130-0.) The people in the black car that rolls around campus use some common sense. The Paw's Platitude ■From little bitty lies, great rumors grow." Again last week the Cats displayed their hidden potential. The Li-rons of Mars Hill played Emory and Henry as well as Catawba and gave both schools very good games. o bunch of grapes by James L. Bass And the angel spoke unto Mary, "How liketh you Joseph?" to which Mary replied "Who needs him". This is one of the comments one hears being repeated everywhere since the death of God controversy started. It seems that everywhere one turns there is evidence that people are convinced that Christianity, being 2,000 years old, could definitely use an overhaul, I, for one, am in full agreement, There's nothing quite so unimpressive as a man trying to convince you that getting liquored up and running naked is going to send you to Hell. One little trick some denominations constantly try to pull on people is that of bringing an evangelist in for a good old foot washing revival and having him stand there and pour out all the gory details of his former life as a pimp, bank robber, homosexual, college student, rapist or NazL The Romeo and Juliet1 Movie Ttih Si.u clay light's College Center Board movie presentation will be "Romeo and Juliet." Show time will be 8 p.m. in Hoey Auditorium. Starring in this performance of the Shakespeare classic are Lawrence Harvey, Susan Shen- tall, Flora Robson, and Mervyn Jones. The picture was elaborately filmed ln Italy, where scenery shots Show castles, marketplaces, costumes, and monasteries as they were in the time depicted. The expert cast gives sensitive performances, Mpturlng the love, beauty, and tragedy of the orlg' n! ol \y The 138 minute movie will be shown free of charge. i h mm sees a daily 'Western Carolinian' with its own press manned by journalism students." From a one-hour elective to a concentratton-perhaps some day a full major with its own department. This is the proof journalism at Western. really bad thing about this type of service is that they are usually aimed at the younger generation. Ordinarily, that's great. Unfortunately, the lopsided majority of the adolesr cents there come to get ideas for their own escapades rather than to see the light. If you don't believe me, go to one of these shindigs and then wait a week to ask any 18 year old male what the guy said. 10 to 1 says his memory doesn't go beyond the first half of the sermon. At any rate, my contention is that you cant tell people to adapt themselves to a morality that died a hundred years ago and expee1 anybody with any intelligence to take you seriously. Fortunately, many prominent clergymen are aware that it is time to rework**he rules and are proceeding to do something about it, It's long overdue.
