  • EVfEHI ^AfOUllAI Vol. XLII No. 9 THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1976 POB 66, Cullowhee, NC 28723 Student charged with assault An intruder allegedly entered Rey- threatened a Reynolds resident with a nolds dorm about 3 a.m. Sunday and knife. Advertising on I-40 West [Barbour photo]. Stills concert, game featured October 8 weekend Stephen Stills will aDDear in concert in Reid Gym on October 8. The concert is part of a joint effort by many student groups to "keep people in Cullowhee on the weekends,'' SGA president Walt Teague said. The weekend will also feature a football game and other activities. The Stills concert is being billed as "mostly an acoustic concert" by the head of Student Government Productions, Charlie Hyde. Hyde said that in place of the usual Reid Gym stand-up battle in the audience, SGP plans to have seats on at least half of the floor. "We don't want a bunch of people up front pushing and raising hell," Hyde said. Stills, a veteran performer of Buffalo Springfield and Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young fame, has never played in this area before. His solo albums include Stephen Stills, Stephen Stills 2, and his most recent release Illegal Stills. Steve Fryar of Rocky Mount, NC said that he answered a knock on the door of his room on the second floor and met a knife-wielding visitor. Director Bob Doyle and R.A. Lane Burris were notified. Doyle immediately called campus security. Officers arrived in less than a minute but the assailant could not be found. A suspect was seen by Burris about 6 **^ p.m. Monday in Brown Cafeteria and security "'as notified. Officer Ed Hooper arrived and took Martin E. • Fulcher into custody. Fulcher, a WCU student and resident of Harrill dorm, was escorted to the Jackson County Magistrates' Office where a warrant was issued. Fryar identified Fulcher and signed the warrant stating that Fulcher threatened to do him bodily harm with a knife. A trial was set for October 7. The incident is under investigation by Pritchard Smith, director of campus Traffic and Security. Residence Assistant Lane Burris said the intruder obviously entered the building through a door that had been propped open. Burris said "this would not have happened if people realized that not only are they placing other folk's possessions and well being as well as the dorm itself in jeopardy, they're leaving themselves open to loss or injury; why do you think they lock the damn doors in the first place?" Owle preaches, practices work by Rob Daves When you meet Freeman Owle for the first time, you get the impression that he is a man who knows exactly where he wants to go and is willing to fight to get there. Owle, a Cherokee Indian, is a 1976 graduate of WCU where he majored in social work. His driving concern is to show other members of his tribe that, although success doesn't come easily, it is attainable through education and hard work. And he has practiced what he preaches -- hard work. For the past five years, Owle has been not only a full-time student at WCU but also director of the Cherokee Children's Home and a supervisor in the Cherokee Boys Club, the parent organization of the children's home. While maintaining his duties at the home, a place for neglected and abused children, he made time to use his talents as a wood and stone carver to help support a wife and two sons while he attended school. Owle is presently a graduate student in the WCU School of Education, where he is working on a cross-cultural teaching project for two local schools through the Teacher Corps. He said the project's task is to' orient students to the Indian culture as a part of stressing unity in the two communities affected by the proposed consolidation. Owle graduated from the Indian high school in Cherokee in 1966. He attended Gardner-Webb College for a year, and then dropped out to work. He returned to school at WCU in 1967 and later went to Daytona Beach Fla., to work. In 1970 he assumed the job as director of the Cherokee Children's Home where his responsibilities included all social work, house parent supervision, counseling, and campus organization and maintenance. Since 1971, he has been a dean's list student at WCU with the aid of scholarships from the Bureau of Indian Affairs and the Suzanne Davis Scholarship Fund, which is administered by the Cherokee Historical Association. But scholarships just pay tuition - they don't support a family. That is where he puts his talent as a stone and wood carver to use. "All of my carvings are sold before I even finish them," he said, "and I only sell to individuals, so there's no problem with marketing." But financial support is not the only reason Owle carves. "My carvings are an outlet for my frustrations which come from working with 'systems'," he said. He uses the word "systems" to refer to any kind of bureaucracy he encounters druing his work or school day. "I like working with people that's why I chose social work as a major," he explained, "but in dealing with people's 'systems' there is always frustration involved. I feel I have complete control over a block of wood or stone, and that's not the case when you have to deal with bureaucracy." Although he enjoys carving, he still feels his main duty is to the Indians. •' I want to be an example to other Indians to show that if they work, especially in education, they can really make it-you just have to get in there and fight," he emphasized. Freeman Owle is a fighte .
