  • QEbe Mesitern Carolinian VOICE OF THE STUDENTS VOL. XXXVIII, No. 4 Thursday July 6, 1972 Western Carolina University Cullowhee, N.C. Bus Stop Reviewed "Dynamic!" To say that I merely saw the play BUS STOP last evening would be doing Western Carolina's Little Theatre a grave injustice. I had instead an experience, not only as an amateur theatre goer, but as a witness to the experience of love as it happens to lonely people. The reputation of William Inge's play BUS STOP speaks for itself. Its long showing on Broadway and the renown of the movie leave nothing for me to say of its dramatic worth or literary quality. The production of BUS STOP here at Western is nothing short of dynamic. With only 20 days between casting and the first curtain, Dr. Robert Yowell has skillful" ly cast outstanding players,and directed them into the most revealing characterizations that one could hope to see on stage. The reading of the play itself was droll, but the viewing was delightful. The story is of a group of people, lonesome people, brought together at a small cafe. The actors reveal the full spectrum of love from tender compassion to its forceful sexual nature. From the simulated bus head^- lights shiningthrough the cafe's front window, to the greasy walls and frimy smudges around the light switch, the cafe set is an artistic achievement. The decor is created by one who has a working knowledge of the shabby, yet functional cafes that serve our nation's bus lines. Steve Carlisle, as Dr. Ly- man, is a drunk reprobate who tries to take advantage of EC ma, (Suzy Brack), a waitress. In creating his own version of the doctor, as a totter ing drunkard murmuring sweet nothings to his pint of rye, Carlisle spans the chasm between callousness and tear-evoking compassion. Elma, his victim, is played by a 14 year-old high school girl, who cannot help but radiate innocence. Cherie, played by Sonja Beck - The night club singer, Cherie, played by Sonja Beckham, talks to the county sheriff, played by Cary Waldron, in the Little Theatre's presentation of BUS STOP. The three-act play ends tomorrow night after a four night run. (Staff photo by Tom Ditt) ham, is a beautiful but tawdry night club singer, such as one would hope to find in one's erotic dreams or in a late night truck stop. Virgil and Bo, the rough cut cowpokes, played byJoeSmythe and Allen Freeman, are each other's foil. Virgil is a slow moving type whose every word is well chosen. Bo, on the other hand, is headstrong, temper- mental anda little overplayed by- Mr. Freeman. There is little to say about the roles of Grace (Karen Fur- no) and Carl ( Jack Walden), for while watching them one feels quite at home in a Greyhound snack bar. Their intimate glances and dialects are very well executed. So convincing was their acting that the audience tended to take them for granted, and threw extra laurels in the direction of the heavier characters. As Dr. Yowell stated, the objective of the play, is "to explain what it is to be alive." The University Players maynot be the greatest in the state, but they certainly know what it means to be alive. Their portrayals of lonely human beings show that the initial sexual corn- tact is not satisfactory. These actors show the printed word to be inferior, because they discover their character types and are successful in depicting them, BUS STOP is the stage upon which these lonely people realize their initial sexuality and ultimately discover love within their souls. This play marks the maturing of Western's drama department, with big city talent in a small country school. Budget Group Here Tuesday North Carolina's Advisory Budget Commission will pay its biennial visit to Western Carolina next Tuesday, July 11 and will hear a general presentation from WCU's new Chancellor, Dr. Jack K. Carlton and Vice- Chancellor, Frank H, Brown, The WCU visit will be the first stop of the six-member commission and the staff as it tours state institutions throughout North Carolina to inspect facilities funded by the North Carolina General Assembly. The Advisory Budget Commission advises the Board of Governors and the General Assembly as to the need of institutions who request approprC ations from the State, Capital improvements requests are Art Show Clinton f. Dodson Appointed To SHC On Campus Mr. James Smith, WCU professor of art, is presenting his work in his last campus exhibit lasting until July 25th, on the third floor of Hinds University Center. Mr. Smith is a nationally known artist and has won awards for his work. The show is open to the public at no charge and features sculpture and shaped canvas. Smith works on variations of a specific theme in order to achieve certain perfected forms. Mr. Smith is leaving WCU at the end of the summer session. Clinton F. Dodson of Cullowhee has been chosen to replace E.J. Whitmire as North Carolina State Highway Commissioner. Whitmire is a member of the WCU Board of Trustees. Conflict of interest newspaper stories were followed June 2 by resignations from Whitmire and W. Arthur Tripp of Greenville, also a commission member. SBl investigation reports concerning the allegations have been handed to solicitors Mar- made through the Board of Governors to the State Legislature. The Commission is chaired by former state senator Thomas J. White of Kinston, N.C. who is also a member of the Board of Governors for the revised University of North Carolina system. In the past, WCU officials made specific requests for the capital improvements budget. This year, however, there will be only a general presentation by Chancellor Carlton and Vice- Chancellor Brown. Chancellor Carlton will be on campus Tuesday morning for the presentation to the Commission, after which he will return to Macon, Georgia. The new Chancellor assumes his full- time duties on August L Summer School Enrollment Up Dr. Jerry Rice, Director of the Summer School, today announced that 2,250 students are currently enrolled in on-cam- pus college-credit courses at WCU. The figure represents a 13% increase over enrollment figures for thecorrespondingper- iod last year, and an 11% increase in the number of quarter hours being taught. In other words, more students are taking more courses, 1,989 students were registered in the first summer session of 1971. The enrollment figures do not include the approximately 300 elementary and high-school students enrolled in the superior and gifted student program. Combined with the estimated one hundred participants in the Institute for Undergraduate Curricular Reform, the overall figure approaches 2700 students. Dr. Rice was unable to give a projection for the second summer session enrollment figures, but he indicated that a reduction in attendance has been the norm in the past, Registration for second session will be held Monday, July 17, from 9:00 a.m, to 4:00 p.m., in the University Center's Grandroom. SGA Pres. Nelson Taps 7 Summit Court Justices cellus Buchanan III, Sylva, and Eli Bloom, Greenville, whoare investigating the situaton privately. In 1934, Dodson utilized the old Western Carolina Teachers College power plant as the first home of the school's biology Department, He retired as head of that department in 1967. Dodson Cafeteria, WCU's largest, was dedicated to Dodson. One of his three children, Dr. Joe Dodson, is an assistant professor of education at WCU. SGA Summer Court officials have been named by Student body President Dwight Nelson and approved by Barry Dodson, President of the Student Senate. The Court will hold its first session Wednesday, July 12, at 7:00 pm in the Faculty Lounge of Hinds University Center. The Court will hear 12 traffic cases during their first session and all sessions are open to the public. The new seven-member Court will handle all disciplinary and traffic cases this summer.
