XXXVII, No. 46 Thursday, April 13 1972 MarotcycLt i ' owuv Without pride MOTOfcCYCLE «S 0NcV<:'^v> ONLY Of TH€ MoTORCVCtt^ ^ V"^ Finally, spring must be here. We didn't want to commit ourselves too soon, but there has not been a snow storm since mid-March, and the last cold snap was a good two weeks ago. So it must be spring. And, as always, spring is the perfect time to discover the eyesore that Cullowhee and Western Carolina University is. It is not a hard discovery to make. One quick glance, one drive through, one glimpse out the classroom window. There are signs nailed to trees. There are other signs leaning against buildings, falling from posts, hanging one=sided. Holes are dug and left for weeks. Campus maintenance, in general is a minor concern, as italwayshas been. Sometimes, though, one wonders what good campus maintenance is anyway. Why maintain a campus no one cares about? Trash clutters the campus, posters are stuck up everywhere but the bulletin boards that were provided for them, and worst of all, grass is trampled to non-existence. With the exception of Mrs. Alex Pow, Dan Pittillo, and a spattering of faculty members, students, and administrators, very few people care about what Western Carolina looks like. There is a complete lack of pride. And until that pride comes about, this school will remain an eyesore. ^r^^**— MOTDeCVCLES' ONLV A pleasant surprise If you like pleasant surprises, I've got the genuine article for you. Loiv nie Mack's HILLS OF INDIANA is well qualified for both pleasant and surprising. Unless the jukebox in your hangout of five or six years ago was dominated by country music you haven't been exposed to Mr. Mack (if I am imformed as a music writer should be, this is the second album by Lonnie Mack. His first one was centered around his semi" country hit version of Chuck Berry's MEMPHIS). He played a country type of blues that was just a step over from Bobby Bare. Since then he has grown a beard and his hair might be a little longer but it's not greased back anymore. And this is the key to the new Lonnie Mack, He sings more than before and the songs go deeper than "My Baby 's Dine Left Me". The titles listed on his new album include Rings, Bicycle Annie, A Fine Way To Go, and Lay It Dawn. I don't want to try to classify his style but you can still hear the country in it, partly due to Mack's voice and partly to the steel guitar. Besides the new style and material, this album is one of the best engineered and arranged recordings I have ever ""■^■Va^aSaflB^BaMa^BMala^aMalBMr The Western Carolinian Published twice weekly through the academic /ear and weekly during the summer by the students of Western Carolina University.

There is no technical Haw to mar the Impact of the performances and one arrangement in particular is very striking, that of "Rings". Released by a group called Cymerron a while back, it didn't strike me as worth much, but Mack's treatment of it makes it brand new and really pleasing. A pleasant surprise, a surprise for anyone who has heard his older work and pleasing for anyone who appreciates an honest effort with the ability to back it up. It is right in line with country folk rock (?) trend of today but somehow I'm afraid it lacks the commercial touch to make it real big. There's no name of some obscure rural place attached and no electric fiddles or anything like that. It really lacks a gimmick. If that doesn't bother you and you can enjoy just good music, you might like the HILI.i> OF 1NDLANA. Dear Editor: In reference to "Greek Beat" in Tuesday's issue, the author's reasoning about 'Open Rush' might be sound but his Math ain't, He comes up with a figure of three pledges per 20 rushees, or Stated in Probablity: .15 chance of a rushee pledging. If we assume these figures to be valid (although no statistics were used to determine them) the author then assumes a direct relationship, that is 3:20 equals 12:80. This is mathematical bullshit. By using the normal approximation to the 'Binomial Distribution, the Probablity that 12 men pledge out of 80 is equal to around .1272, not .1500. As many Greeks as there are taking Stat I in the Business building you'd think they'd learn something. Painter Good evening and welcome to the weekly column. This afternoon's topics will include: RETURN OF THE BIRDS; THE KEY CARDS THAT DEV- Ol RED CULLOWHEE; and CIDER ON 111I-: CEILING (or things that that go boom in the room). With the return of Spring returned! the birds, and observers to date have reported sighting either flocks or individuals of the following species in the Cullowhee area: the Redeyed Cross- patch, the All-night Thrasher , the Ruffled Spouse, the Great Stench, the Lesser Stench, the Double-breasted Seersucker, the Scarlet Manager, the Electric Crane, the No Left Terne, the Wob- bley Scotch Swallow, the Anhostura Bittern, the Due Bill, and the Great Bald Ego. In addition, reports of several Mid- dlefingered Birds have been reported. Nextly—the Steam Plant has announced that in keeping with the new policy of the Cniversity to issue key cards, several more types of cards will be required for University life. These cards have been purchased from Screwy Products Co. Ltd. of Cairo, Poland. The announcement was made after a recent study concluded that dormitory key card system was consistent with PE Department policy in that the slots that the cards be inserted in are placed at an acceptable distance that requires a student to run a 3-yard dash upon insertion. Failure to make it to the door in the prescribed time results in recent study concluded that dormitory key card system was consistent with PE Department policy in that the slots that the cards be inserted in are placed at an acceptable distance that requires a student to run a 3-yard dash upon insertion. Failure to make it to the door in the prescribed time results in a failure to get through the door, or the possible loss of an arm, foot, etc. which thusly will reduce the weight of the student and increase his life expectancy. New card systems will be installed on the doors to bathrooms and showers \^/ and must be validated weekly by the Almighty Infirmary to insure students are sanitary (i.e. , don't have the crabbs). Systems will also be installed on the doors to the post office, the juke box at the snack bar, and all campus water fountains. The water fountain facilities will require a student to insert his card into a special slot located eight and three/ quarters feet from the fountain and hold it firmly in the place to induce the water to rise from the spout. If the card is not held firmly in place, the water will recede. Other systems are in planning for the wall in front of the University Center, Foosball machines and the telephone booths across from the post office. In the cider on the ceiling or things that go boom in the room department, this late-breaking item. One local Princess dwelling in Mary Scott High Rise Hall was reportedly slightly injured when a vintage cask of Gatlinburg apple-cider in the production state exploded in her room. The young gentlewoman said that the gallon jug had previously fssssi at her when she removed the top, but she that the nectar had not yet reached its desired potentcy. Now to close out the scene this afternoon we shall rely on the Editorial Commentary b> LCB Whitesides. White- sides reported that a localtravelingcir- cus was in the area last week and misplaced one of its elephants. Since the inhabitants of this area are not accustomed to viewing strange animslsand CONTINUED ON Page 4 . . . .
