  • Qai^iLiiNjiaM VOU'i: OF THE STl'DEXTS VOL. XXXIX No. 23 Tuesday November 13,1973 Western Carolina University Cullowhee, North Carolina "I Never Sang For My Father", the story of a young man beset by the demands of his aging father, opened Monday night as the latest production of WCU's University Players. (Photo by R. Paul Smith) A Review S/TA Gives Outstanding Show by W. Creveling Wilkes Robert Anderson's "I Never Sang For My Father" is this week's University Players production in the WCU Little Theatre. Under the direction of Mary Bennet. "I Never Sang For My Father" attains a tense electricity that couples with closeness to bring us an outstanding production. The plot for this show is based around the narrative of a grown son relating the story of his very elderly parents and the occurring situations of the final years. Dealing primarily with the aspiration and conflicts that must be faced by children when their parents have become elderly and tend to become too dependent upon them, Anderson reveals this path that sons and daughters must decide upon and follow. Gene Garrison, as played by Steve Carlisle, is the loving son who feels that it is his duty to watch over his parents and attend to their needs. Torn between the duty he feels he owes his parents, his need to love his father and the desire to lead a life of his own, Gene not only has to fight the overwhelming battle with his father, but also the battle of decision that he must meet within himself. John Clark as Tom Garrison, the father, and Karen Furno as the mother, Margaret Garrison. Both do excellent work in characterizing the very elderly and dying. Tom and Margaret are caught up in the inspiration of their youth and rely upon the delicate balance of being set in their ways and not understanding the modern day world. They continually repeat that Gene is the only aspect of their lives which brings them happiness, and it is this point which they utilize to hold him within their reach. Bringing a new dimension into the show is the appearance of the daughter, Alice Garrison, who is played by Kay Bentley. Alice, who had been thrown out of the house because of her marriage with a Jewish man is the exact opposite of Gene and deplores him for being so emotionally vulnerable to the pleas of their father. Alice views the entire situation with a cool head of logic and a refusal to bear any burden that is unnecessary. The acting throughout the production was superb. The tempo of the show is tense and binding, while the emotional pull is overwhelming. 'Mother Earth' Editor Speaks Here Thursday The publisher and two associate editors of "The Mother Earth News", a popular new- magazine of alternative lifestyles, will speak Thursday, Nov. 15th, at 7 p.m. in the auditorium of Forsyth Building at Western Carolina University. John Shuttleworth, Ken Hodges, and Steve Weichelt will discuss energy sources and environmental concerns. Shuttle- worth is the magazine's founder, and Weichelt specializes in alternative sources of energy. "The Mother Earth News" is one of the success stories of magazine publishing. The first issue was published in January 1970, on a budget of $1,500. The magazine now boasts a circulation of more than 300,000. Founded in Ohio, the mag- azine moved to Hendersonville this summer. The program is sponsored by the WCU University Center Board. Admission is free. Driving "I Never Sang For My Father" to the height which it has reached on the WCU stage are the additional talents of Richard Beam as Dr. Mayber- ry, Ronny Fender as Marvin Scott, Cecilia Neal as Mary, the waitress, Carolyn Fulton as Janet Halsey, the nurse, Gene Alexander as Reverend Pell, and Randall Willis doubling as the Porter and the Waiter. The extended efforts of all the cast blended to form a highly professional production. The set, which consists of two circular platforms of which one is a revolve, are accented with angled arches touched by soft blends of blue, yellow, red, and violet, Lending well to the production and alsobeinghighly variable, the set was designed by Cathy Dixon. The lighting, designed by Richard Beam, adds a solemn essence by creating shadowy appearances as if a soft veil has been thrown over the set. Colorful hues help greatly in accenting the set, the cast, and the mood of the show. "I Never Sang For My Father" opened last night in the WCU Little Theatre in the rear of Stillwell Building. Production will run through Saturday night, November 17. Tickets are available through the Speech and Theatre Arts Department and reservations can be made by phone at 293-7491. The theatre opens at 6:30 and curtain is 7:30 p.m. Senate's Stand Unclear Decision Masked By Closed Doors by Chuck Kirtley fa a night of proposals and counter-proposals, the senate ended its meeting in executive session concerning the eligibility of two controversial senators, Sager Williams and Jim Shive. Wardell Townsend, senate president, over vocal protests at one point during the open meeting,declared the two seats occupied by Williams and Shive vacant, The senate's faculty advisor, Clifford Lovin, offerred a compromise in which Shive and Williams would give up their seats until next quarter. Only one senator verbalized opposition to Lovin's plan when it was considered during informal session. According to Lovin's plan, Williams would be able to serve next quarter since he would have been at WCU the previous quarter. Shive would also be able to serve if Reynolds Hall is not closed in winter. The Lovin compromise was introduced inlightoflastweek's supreme court decision thatthe Senate had violated the constitution when it seated Williams and Shive. The court based its decision on the requirements for being a senator. It said that the Senate could determine the requirements, but could not change them once they were incorporated into the constitution. An amendment, not a senate vote, is needed to change the requirements, the ruling said. After some discussion of the compromise, Jim Davidson made a motion to go into executive session in which the press and observers would be excluded from the meeting. A discussion followed in which it was pointed out that the students had the right to know what was going on in the senate. Some said the senate should not hide its actions from the public. Despite these arguments the Senate voted 14 to 13 for a closed session. A ten minute recess was then called during which this reporter asked Davidson why he asked for a closed session. He said what he did was legal according to parliamentary proceed- ure, but refused to comment on his reason for doing so. When pressed he would only reply, "No comment." After the recess the Senate met briefly in an informal session in a final attempt to institute the Lovin compromise. The attempt failed so the recess formally ended and the Senate began its closed session. What went on is not known, but the outcome was that Williams and Shive were not expelled from the senate. In other business the committee investigating SGA expenditures reported that its investigation was progressing. It is looking into SGA ledgers and vouchers. The committee for the advancement of the university reported that the United Fund Drive at Western was progressing. The drive ends Thursday and the club or organization which makes the largest donation will be awarded a plaque. A resolution was passed recommending the library to ac quire and make available typewriters for students. The library used to provide this service but it has been discontinued. The Senate then passed a new appropriations bill. The bill took money a way from many SGA sponsored organizations and gave more to the underfinanced CATAMOUNT, This will help the yearbook to retain the same size and quality as in past years. Get The Real Dope On Drugs by Eric Kirtzinger No matter which side of the fence you stand, you'll probably be interested in the drug panel discussion being held Wednesday night in For e- syth Auditorium. The 8:00pm discussion is being sponsored by the Law Club and is open to all interested persons. "Dope" will be the theme, and participating in the discussion will be Neil Crisp, an Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms Federal Agent; Lt. K.D "Buster" Ingle, headof Inter- Agency Narcotic Squad of Asheville; and Creighton "Zeke" Sossomon, an attorney from Sylva. First, Lieut. Ingle will talk about the over-all drug picture. Afterwards students will be allowed to ask the narcotic agents questions or dir ect their legal questions to Sossomon. "The final decision concerning drugs rests solely on the individual" said Galen E. Newson president of the Law Club. "But we feel that before the person can make that decision that he should be informed of all the f*cts concerning the penalt Ys of the law." Whether you wear your hair long or short, Newsom urges all interested persons to attend the discussion. He added that this will be an excellent opportunity not only to learn the laws, but also your rights.
