  • The Western Carolinian VOICE OF THE STUDENTS Vol. XXXVI, No. 9 October 1,1970 Western Carolina University Cullowhee, N.C. Well knowi writer to speak here Donald Hall, contemiwrary American poet, novelist, editor, and critic, will speak at WCU Monday, Oct. 5, at 8 p.m. Hall, who has published about 20 books, Is a frequent contributor to magazines such as "New Yorker," "Atlantic Monthly," "Saturday Review," and the "New York Times Book Review/' In his public lectures, Hall has an informal conversational style that usually makes an immediate appeal to campus audiences, His Introducatlor to poetry course at the University of Michigan has persuaded many students to majoi in English. Audiences have called Hall's voice moving, dramatic, derisive, and wooing, in turns. A typical Hall lector j contains much of his own poetry, along with conversation on poetry In general. The program, which will be held in Hoey Auditorium on the WCU campus, is sponsored by the WCU Lectures, Concerts, and Exhibitions Committee. Admission is free to WCU students upon presentation of an ID card. The program is open to the public at a nominal fee. Enrollment figures out CULLOWHEE, N. C. - - Pre- liminary fall quarter registration figures at Western Carolina University show a total on-campus enroUment of 5,035 students, according to Dr. Alex S. Pow, WCU pres= ident, This total, which does not include students enrolled in in- service or extension courses, would indicate a 7.8 per cent increase over last fall's conu parable figure of 4,670. Dr. W. Newton Turner, vice president for academic affairs, pointed out that all registration figures must be considered incomplete at this time, since registration continues through Oct. 5. Undergraduate registrations account for 4,559 of the total, with the remaining 476 falling in graduate and other student classifications. Men students still outnumber women at WCU, and the ratio, about four to three, remains the same as last year. A distribution of students by state and county of residence is not yet available, but there are 13 foreign students at WCU this quarter, representing eight different countries. Total WCU enrollment, both on and off campus, was 5,426 for fall quarter in 1969. Dr. Turner said this year's enrollment is expected to be even higher. Pep ralley There will be a pep rally sponsored by IFC and Panhellenic to be held in front of the University Center, at 7:00 p.m., Thursday, Oct, 1. AND THIS IS THE BANANA TREE. The lone banana tree in Cullowhee. And on the lone babana tree is the lone bunch of bananas. Coming by those bananas was very hard, though, as Dan Plttilo of the Biology Department will tell you. Banana crop here By TIM OATES Will the sound of castanets clicking and the sight of sombreros soon take over the WCU campus? Well, It very well could be possible now that a menber" of our biology dep= artment has produced 1 / 2,000,- 000,000 (approx.) of the world's total export crop of bananas. That's right, bananas. Hyde heads committee to name buildings The committee to name High- Rise and the Business Building headed by Dr. Wallace N. Hyde and composed of Jack Barnett, Ronald Huber, Thomas Lane Mallonee, Jane Orr, Jane Queen, and Modeal Walsh held a second and final meeting Sat. September 26. Suggestions for names were submitted by each member to the Board of Trustees, who are expected to arrive at a name for the two buildings in the questionably near future. Partial parking solution made Professor Dan Pittillo of the WCU Biology Department Is proud to announce that his banana tree has bloomed. The tree, located on the east side of the StlUwell Science building, has as last bore, after three years of trying, 16 plump little green bananas, All are fine and healthy. For three years now the Professor has been caring for the fruitless plant hoping that someday fruit would come. Each year the parent plant was taken into the greenhouse where he nursed it and tried to keep it in good health. Now new life has been brought into the world by this begettor. Originally the bearer came from the University of Georgia as a small tree. It was raised by Pittillo in order that it might bear fruit. Pittillo says however, that now that it has bore him a banana, he will not care for it another year unless a group takes a great Interest in her. Pittillo is not sure which of the more than 100 types of the species the young are. My God, illegitimate bananas! A partial solution to the parking problem here has been pro posed by Men's House Govern ment in a comprehensive study of the Albright-Benton parking lot, Their two-part proposal would increase the capacity of the parking lot by almost 1007a, The proposal states a recommendation by "the administration that Albright andBenton residents park their cars on 'the hill'around lower classmen dormitories." Men's House Government has checked these areas and found that there are usually no spaces available in these areas. Stolen parts of damaged cars can go undetected when one's car is not within one's own survey, the proposal states. The two-part solution to Albright-Benton parking as stated by Men's House Government follows: Foremost in importance is the necessity for the corrective realignment of the existing parking area south of Benton Residence. As It exists, the lot Is the epitome of shortsightedness and inefficiency. The lot is designed for straight in parking which requires a much larger ; space between rows for backing out and leaves all lanes "two way" In direction. With the repainting of space markers and the addition of approximately 90 running feet ofsingle lane drives, the inconvenient parking would be eliminated and more spaces would be made available. A rough sketch of this proposal would be made available. Because of the simple nature of following through on this portion of the solution, it is suggested that it be accomplished immediately. The drive additions would not require the removal of student cars and the painting can be accomplished in one day. With the accomplishment of part one, our attention should turn immediately to expanding the parking area west toward the rear of the residence. An additional 100 feet Pius the Land purchased for improvement of university Frank Brown, Vice-President of the Administrative Affairs, has released information that the University has purchased two tracts of land for the improvement and enlargement of University facilities. One of the tracts is located adjacent to the old reservoir and is for the purpose of building a new 50,000 gallon reservoir. Brown stated that bids for that construction are underway. The other piece of land is adjacent to the present sewage disposal plant and will be used for the expansion of this facility. Brown also stated that transactions for purchasing other properties for further university expansion is in the process in Raleigh. Further information will be disclosed when the transactions are complete. squaring-off of the rounded corner of the parking lot wouldadd approximately 75 spaces, almost a 100% increase over the present number. This area should also be connected on the north end by short drives. Dorms will have suites A new suite concept is only one of the original ideas in the new men's and women's dormitory being erected at either end of the campus. The $3,120,000 construction will be similar In every respect to the present High Rise in furnishings and materials as well as in physical appearance. The building will be eight stories high with six suites to a floor on the six main floors. The first and the eighth floors will have large lobbies and observation lounges. Each floor will have its own study and lobby. They will house four hundred students each with two students to a room and four rooms to a suite, The bath room, between the main corridor, and the bedrooms form a small dressing area allowing traffic on the main corridor while at the same time giving the bathers privacy. Wardrobes and desk units are built-in and are on display in Dodson Cafeteria, The new girls' dorm wiU not be connected to the present High Rise and will appear one story lower due to the lower ground level. Construction is coming along fine, according to Mr. Hugh Medlin, Superintendent of Construction on both sites. They are scheduled for completion in November of 1971.
