  • The Western Carolinian VOICE OF THE STUDENTS VOL. XXXVII, No. 25 Western Carolina University Thursday, January 12, 1972 Cullowhee N.C. Trustees' what Western Carolina University's Board of Trustees will meet Tuesday morning at 10 a.m., and according to board chairman Dr. Wallace Hyde there will be only one order of business—that being a report on the President of the University and any resulting action. The meeting will come the day after board members and university officials travel to Birmingham and visit with President Pow and his family and his doctors. Monday board members Dr. Charles O. Van Gorder, Ted Jordan and Dr. Hyde, public information director Doug Reed and university attorney William Scott will fly to Birmingham in Jordan's plane. While Dr. Van Gorder speaks with the president's doctors other members will visit his family. meeting: to do? The purpose of Tuesday's meeting, Dr. Hyde said, "Is simply to discuss the results of our trip to Birmingham and to do what is necessary with regard to Dr. Pow." The trip and the meeting, he said "Are to determine what we can expect (of President Pow); whether or not we can expect him back and when." The meeting will probably determine whether or not the board must consider candidates for president or if an Acting President must be named in President Pow's absence. Frank H. Brown Jr. is presently Acting President. President Pow has been in Birmingham since December. He was transferred to the Spain Rehabilitation Clinic of the University of Alabama Medical Center from the Memorial Mission-Hos- pltal in Asheville. ABA WIELHORSKY Artist's dedication shown in exhibition Controversial 'Freaks' atWCU next Thursday The 1972 art exhibition season of Western Carolina University will open tomorrow in the fine art gallery with an exhibit of works by Aba Wielhorski, of the art faculty here. The opening reception will be tomorrow night at 7 pm and will feature comments by the artist. In the program for the exhibit, Leonard R. Craig, also of the WCU art faculty, says of Wielhorski and his works, "I recognize a technique typical of a man who knows his craft and does his work with enthusiasm." Of painting, Wielhorski says, "The only true law is that arising from deep and exclusive dedication to work. That is why I am not over-enthusiastic CONTINUED Page 8. . . . "Freaks," a bizarre, controversial film that was once scheduled for showing on campus, then cancelled, has been rescheduled for January 20. The 1932 horror film that stars actual "freaks" gathered from all over the world by director Tod Browning, was on the orientation schedule last quarter. After a preview showing, though, the residence assistants voted not to show the film. The Albright-Benton Residence Hall Government, though, recently decided to show the movie, with the understanding that they would well publicize its contents so students that may be offended or upset by such a movie would know not to attend. Since "Freaks" was on the orientation schedule, the residence assistants that voted it down were afraid that some students might think they would have to go. Carl Cameron, the president of the Albright - Benton Residence Hall Government said, "Now students have a choice— they don't have to come. . . And we do not recommend the film for anyone who is mentally and/or physically unstable." The plot of "Freaks" concerns Cleopatra, a beautiful circus trapeze artist who tricks Hans, a midget, into marrying her. She plans to take over his recently inherited fortune. Hans and his fellow circus "freaks" realize what Cleopatra is doing and decide to avenge themselves by turning her into a freak. "The wedding feast, " the promotion copy reads, "in which the freaks welcome Cleopatra to their domain has become a classic of horrifying irony." Shortly after the movie was released in 1932 it was taken out of circulation. It was not CONTINUED Page 8. . . . The smartest, dumbest thing at WCU By JIM ROWELL Associate Editor How would you like to wake up each morning not knowing who you are, what you have.done or, are going to do. Not knowing how to do anything. Not knowing whether you had a mouth, a leg, a hand, arm, etc. To compound problems, suppose youare also the fastest brain here at the university and have a few thousand people depending on you. It happens every morning. It happens to Western Carolina's computer. Each morning when John Newman, who manages the WCU computer center, or Gene Laughlin.who directs the center, hits the "on"switch for the IBM 360, the computer responds not with a hum, buzz or flickering of lights, but complete amnesia. It doesn't know that it is a computer. It doesn't know how to do anything.In fact, old "SUPER- THINK" (as Newman calls it ) doesn't know anything. But luckily, the idiot learns fast, Wheita, "program leader" is activated SUPER- THINK is told it is a computer and what devices are hooked up to it (such as a printer, a control console, a memory bank, and tapes, and such). These are the computers mouth, arms and legs. From there the "leader program" tells SUPER- THINK where to go to find out all about itself, and, in a matter of seconds, it goes from dumdum to genius. After Newman explained these facts to this writer, along with other startling bits of information, I felt a little let down. Some of the myth was gone. Maybe this thing was actually not the ominous science fiction robot created by Jules Verne and Company. Somehow., it always seemed that after a stack of punch cards were fed in, the thing would burp; or, if the program happened to be grades, it would' snicker and thumb its nose. No way. Just as many students in the past, I had previously thought to have been molested by Mr. IBM- 360. Once I cursed it for robbingmeof a class on my schedule, another time of rejectingjne period out of spite, And I shan't be forgiving for being "unlunched" (classes from 10 a,m, straight through 2 p.m.). It caused more than one bad dream. Dreams of revenge., . I would slip into the cave it lived in . . .its eyes would light up (they were lights on the control panel)., ,at first they would be cold gray (like a battleship). . .1 couldn't watch long, else they hypnotize me . . .avoiding its ray guns, I'd slip across the room ., .its eyes would turn red and flash . . .et eu brute . . .1 unpluged it and watched the lights flicker yellow and go out.. . revenge. It was all dreams, because the fact is SUPER- THINK never makes an error. In reality, when a student gets the shaft, a human did it; not SUPER- THINK. A good example is the case that cropped up while I was visiting the computer. Fifteen students got lost inside fee h»cbin*. B^SUPIJmUJPGfliQB* it hadn't lost them. And, with some help from the regular staff of humans, it proved it, What happened was the students has given an alias social security number. H your name is WW CONTINUED Pare -3. . . .
