THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN Thursday May 3, 1973 page 5 Harrill Files For Editor Alice Harrill is a junior German major with a minor in English. She hails from Charlotte and lives in off-campus housing. Harrill is a member of the Executive Committee of the Western Carolinian, a member of the Dean's Advisory Committee of the school of arts and sciences, news editor of the Western Carolinian and belongs to the German Club. Harrill's background experience in handling newspaper duties include six months with the Carolinian as both staff writer and news editor. She has performed such duties as copy editing, proof-reading, editorial writing and research reporting. As editor of the Western Carolinian, Harrill would plan "to make the Western Carolinian the true voice of the students." She would "orient more toward student opinions and ideas." She said the paper would "start printing more feature articles and columns that would interest readers" and she wants to make the newspaper "moreaccessibleto WCU students and people in the community." Harrill considers "student apathy " the most pressing problem that WCU has. She stated the Western Carolinian "is a faction of the university which can do something" about this problem. She added that she would print informative articles" in order to get students more involved. Harrill definitely doesn't agree with the residence hall contract. She stated that "it's not fair" to residence hall students. She said that it is "up to the students to change this" by using the Feedback column to "voice their opinions of the contract. We should keep fighting this matter," she pointed out, "until the housing department rescinds its order." When asked if she thought the Western Carolinian really represents the student body she said, "at present I don't think so." She went on to say that in alleviating this, she would give more coverage to all factions on campus, "especially those which have been neglected this year." Harrill expressed a desire for more writers to cover "a wider range of topics," and added the possibility of "a special literary section occ- assionally." Commenting on the impression that the recent disagreement between Dr. Carlton, the faculty and students had made on her, she said that the disagreemtnt "was due to a lack of communication between the Chancellor, the faculty and students." She went on to say that "Carlton has proved himself incompetent as chancellor," and added that he "has not respected the opinions of either students or faculty." sT\ <t / I't f v»r/ w / wv V •*»v Billy Preston In Concert Tuesday Billy Preston , composer and highly respected keyboard artist, will give a free concert here May 8 in Reid Gymnasium at 8:00 p.m. Preston's credentials as a musician and performer are impeccable. At the age of ten he was appearing in Los Angeles on the Mahilia Jackson Show. In 1962 when he was but sixteen he was touring England and Germany with Little Richard. On that tour he first began playing rock By Ted Bugg 'n* roll. Previously he haa played only gospel music. After three years he switched again to gospel music and then formed his own band, specializing in Ray Charles numbers. From there he became a regular on TV's Shindig and when that folded he was signed by Ray Charles to tour with his Revue. It was while touring with the Revue that George Harrison saw Preston on a London TV Show and asked him to contribute Dwight Nelson Angry Over Housing Contract Proposal Student body president Dwight Nelson angrily walked out of yesterday's board of trustees meeting after the trustees had agreed "in principle" with the administration's housing contract proposal. In an interview, he explained why. "I felt like they had all the stupidity in the whole world in that room," he said. "This year working with this board of trustees has been one of the most frustrating years of my life. I have never worked with a more narrow-minded group of political hacks," he declared. "It is a shame to see students' education jeopardized by people who don't seem to have the vaguest idea of what the educational process is all about." Nelson said last night that he will not meet with the trustees again. ' 'I'll never go back. If they were to meet tomorrow I'd not attend the meeting. Sometimes students have things that are worth being said," he continued, "and suddenly- after all the trouble we've had this year 1 realized no one was listening. Why waste my breath ?' What apparently teed Nelson off was a moment in the meeting yesterday when he said he requested that the minutes in clude a statement as to the reason for the contract. Nelson says he was taking notes during the session and at one point recorded vice chancellor for student development Doug Davis as saying, in regard to the contract, that it was to "increase" the housing office budget. Nelson's notes record that moments later, Davis said it was "to stabilize the budget," and not to increase it. Nelson had praise for Chancellor Carlton, however. "I think the Chancellor showed good judgment when he appointed Bill Scott" to handle a revamping of the housing contract. Scott, university attorney, will meet Monday at 3:00 p.m. in the new area of the University Center snack bar with students Harold Rogers, Steve Gheen and David Huskins to discuss the contract. Students are specifically requested to meet with the committee at that time to air questions, suggestions and ideas about a housing contract, Nelson said. "We did accomplish something," he admitted, indicating that the Scott committee would handle the contract, relieving vice chancellor Davis and housing director Tyler Combs from responsibility in the contract writing. Nelson labeled Scott "an arbitrator." musically to the Beatle's "Abbey Road" and "Let It Be" albums. Preston later signed with Apple Records and released two albums of his own. Even though Preston was highly regarded as a session man and performer by members of the music profession for years, it took his performance at the Concert for Bangla Desh to open the eyes of the public. Preston, now an A&M recording artist, has had two highly successful albums with the label and a million selling single, "Outta Space." His music is eclectic and though presently it seems to be predominately a combination of gospel and soul, other influences such as rock and classical are easily recognizable. Currently touring the country with his own band, Preston has been well received and has done several TV shows in the last few weeks. Country Fair Set May 9 An old - fashioned country- fair, complete with candy apples, relay races, and a kissing booth, will be held on the front lawn of Hinds University Center at Western Carolina University Wednesday, May 9 from 3-10 p.m. Picnic dinner will be served from 4:15-6:30 p.m. Dinner will be free to WCU students with their meal tickets, and $1.25 for all others. The fair, which is sponsored by the WCU Residence Halls, will feature booths with games, fortune - telling, and crafts items for sale. There will be an art exhibition, a demonstration of glass-blowing, and musical and clogging performances. Campus organizations and individuals will be manning the booths. Lindsay Is Editor Candidate Scott Lindsay is a senior history and political science major from Bryson City who lives in off campus housing. He is a member of the University Center Board, Ciruna, Young Republicans, German Club, Alpha Phi Sigma and Phi Alpha Theta. He was named to "Who's Who In American Colleges" and has served as chief Justice of Superior Court. Undsay's background experience in newspapers includes work on his high school newspaper and two year's experience with the Waitsbury Times in Waitsbury, Washington. While with the Times he served as a proof reader and a typist, and also did some layout and print shop work. When asked what direction he would take with the Western Carolinian Lindsay answered that he would "take a more adamant stand against Carlton and the Board of Trustees." Lindsay intends to be a "muckraker," to get at the "things behind the scenes" and make sure that "everybody plays it clean" because some "former administrators have not been too clean" in their handling of student situations. "Alienation of the students" is Lindsay's view as the most pressing problem at WCU. He feels the students have been "de-emphasized." "Students are the most important thing on campus," Lindsay said. He wants to ' 'keep the students always in the know," because they "still don't know" just exactly what is going on. Lindsay stated that he is not in agreement with the new contract for residence hall students. He proposes "that we get a lawyer, preferrably from the American Civil Liberties Union." He said he would take "the university to court" and "use the newspaper as supportive action" in this endeavor. "Overall, I think it is," Lindsay answered to the question of whether the Western Carolinian is representative of the student body'. He said that students must remember that "not everybody can get everything" printed in the newspaper. "Priorities have to be set," Lindsay responded, and maintained that the newspaper has done "a very adequate job." In answer to the impression the recent disagreement between Carlton, the faculty and the students had made on him, he responded that Carlton had one thing in mind, and that is "complete domination of the school" and that this could "lead to a continual drop in enrollment." He went on to say that he now has " distrust with administrators" and he takes everything they say "with a grain of salt." Lindsay believes that the Student Government Association and the Western Carolinian can "play a big role" in working for student rights. was STlLC « p*efifable u/v'/ve* sT/y - Ojtf< a/au, <L S*.**ev<*'y p**c«ft/J Re*t^«*f Tf<M**jly f^ver ,.f.
