  • PAGE 12/THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN/OCTOBER 26, 1978 WCU defensive unit caused this fumble in Saturday's game at Wofford. N. Carolina Class '78 debuts in Belk art gallery Sunday E.S. McDaniel Photo A major art exhibition—"North Carolina Glass '78"—will make its debut Sunday with an opening reception from 2 to 4 p.m. in the art gallery of the Belk Building. The reception, being given by Chancellor and Mrs. H.F. Robinson, will honor the ten North Carolina glassblowers—William Bernstein, Jak Brewer, Dale Brownscombe, Fritz Dreisbach, Gilbert C. Johnson, Robert Levin, Harvey Littleton, David Nichols, John F. Nygren, and Mark Peiser—whose works make up the show. Other events planned in connection with the show include an illustrated lecture, "The Studio Glass Movement," by Harvey Littleton, at 4 p.m. Sunday in the recital hall of WCU's new Music/English building. A glassblowing demonstration is scheduled from 10 a.m. until noon Monday in the glassblowing area at Belk Building, and at 2 p.m. there will be a slide show by Fritz Dreisbach in the Cherokee Room of Hinds University Center. Concurrent with the exhibition at Belk Building, Dreisbach will be represented in a one-man show in the Chelsea Gallery of Hinds University Center at WCU. A reception for that show will be held in the gallery from 3 to 4 p.m. Monday. "North Carolina Glass '78" will consist of 86 pieces ranging in price from $50 to $2,200. It will remain on display in Cullowhee through November 17 and gallery hours for the exhibition will be 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday and 2-4 p.m. on Sundays. After the exhibition in Cullowhee has ended, most of the works in the show—62 in all—will travel to other galleries in the Southeast. The travelling version of "North Carolina Glass '78" will be on display December 3-January 16 at the Wellington B. Gray Gallery of Agnes Scott College in Decatur, Ga., and April 9-May 4 at Cohen Memorial Art Museum at George Peabody College in Nashville. Tennessee.

What started out as a four-team pileup at the top of the Southern Conference football standings last weekend has systematically clarified itself into a two -nam horse race. The gallop for glory could come as early as November 4. That's the day when Western (2-0-0 league, 4-3-0- overall) visits UT-Chattanooga (3-0-0 league, 6-0-1 overall). While UT/C takes a week off from conference wars this weekend (they travel to McNeese State for a night game), Western has a chance to draw even with the Moccasins in the win column, the Catamounts taking on VMI at Lexington, Va. Chattanooga's third league win of the 1978 season came at the expense of Furman University, previously unbeaten in league play, 13-9, in a regionally televised game at Greenville, SC. The win increased UT/C's unbeaten string to 15 games, a national highwater mark they share with Penn State. Meanwhile, Western has been quietly regrouping after a three-game losing slide at the season's outset. The Catamounts have bounced back with four straight wins. In 1977, Western finished swiftly with five consecutive victories, and Bob Waters, their veteran mentor, obviously hopes for a repeat performance. "It's all in our hands now," suggested Waters, whose club cldses out the year with four conference games—Furman (November 11) and Appalachian (November 18), in addition to VMI and UT-Chattanooga. Appalachian, one of the top-rated offenses in the nation, continues to lead the conference in total offense, rushing, passing and scoring, according to seven-game statistics just released. The Mountaineers are averaging 438.9 yards per game, 260.1 on the ground and 178.7 in the air. They're scoring at a 32.2 clip. UT-Chattanooga and VMI continue to share the lead in team defensive rankings. The Moccasins are allowing 220.7 total offense yards per game, and have the low rushing yield at 84.3. VMI's pass defense (83.7 yards) and scoring defense (12.3 points) are catagory leaders. WCU students planning to attend the Catamounts- UT-Chattanooga football game, November 4, in Chattanooga are urged to purchase game tickets before leaving campus. All of UT-C's home games this season have been sellouts and the same is expected for the November 4 game. Tickets are on sale for $5.50 at the Athletic Department, Jordan-Phillips Field House, adjacent to Whitmire Stadium. UT-C does not have a student ticket as all tickets are priced at $5.50 Conference standings Team W L T UT/Chattanooga 3 0 0 Western Carolina 2 0 0 Appalachian 2 2 0 Citadel 2 2 0 Furman 1 1 0 VMI 1 2 0 Marshall 0 4 0 This Saturday's Schedule East Tennessee at Appalachian Delaware at The Citadel Furman at Marshall UT/Chattanooga at McNeese State Western Carolina at VMI
