  • WESTERN CAROLINIAN The Voice of the Students Thursday, October n,1979 Vol. XLV, No. 8 Pope prods America's conscience John Paul II has message of hope, peace News Analysis By TAYLOR SISK News Editor Hallelujah America! For those who have long languished over pronounced lack of good news; who have lamented thai Waller Cronkite has not had a good word since Watergate, this week came a rebuttal—resounding and triumphant. John Paul II visited the U.S. and with him brought a much welcomed message to a restless, at times recalcitrant, people i there is still hope. The reception given the Pope throughout his seven-day, six-city tour was, to say the least, greater than expected. He had been to Poland and Mexico with enormous success. But both are predominantly Catholic, the United States is not. Whether or not the spirit of the visit would embrace non-Catholics as well, was in question. However all doubts were quickly laid to rest the moment the Pope's jet—dubbed Shepard I—touched down at Logan Airport in Boston. Undaunted by cold and rainy weather which followed the Pope wherever he went, the crowds were unprecedented from the start. Over a half million turned out in Boston. A million witnessed Mass in Philadelphia and another half a million in Chicago. While a side trip into the farmlands of the Midwest produced audiences of lesser dimensions, enthusiasm was certainly not diminished. The only disappointing crowd was in the nation's capital as the predicted million spectators failed to materialize. Nonetheless 175,000 came out on a cold morning to bid John Paul a warm farewell. The man is, on the surface, a paradox. He is at once both conservative and liberal. While one moment he will stand up for principles of the doctrine which has been a part of Catholicism since its inception, but are now under heated dispute; the next moment he will propose social and economic reforms which even Ted Kennedy would shy away from. When put into perspective however this is not a contradiction of terms. He is simply a man who firmly believes in his religion and is at the same time acutely aware of the world's need for change. One aspect of the man however which is not paradoxical is his character. He is undeniably a man of good intentions. Charismatic yet down-to-earth, John Paul is able to captivate a crowd and at the same time identify with the common man. Though usually several hours behind schedule as he travelled from city to city, he was never too busy to hold a child, chat with the handicapped or bless the ill. Drink drops down the road The 'Drink Till you Drop' Party has been moved to Speedwell Rd. on Cullowhee Mtn. Brent Hyatt, party supervisor, has chartered a bus for the occasion that will be running all day from the University Center to the party itself. The cost for the entire bus ride will be .50 and you must have a shirt to ride. Hyatt also emphasized the need for participants to bring blankets to sit on at the party. Remember, this is for the WCU students to have a good time, so let us do your driving. See you there. He appears almost embarrassed by the treatment he is affected as if he seeks only to be an ordinary man. After attending a performance of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra he appeared surprised to find a large crowd awaiting his exit. Speaking in humble tones iid, "I assure you that I am not the Chicago .Symphony Orchestra. I am only the Pope." What opposition the Pontiff did encounter came primarily from those who are seeking reform in the Catholic Church. On the issues of abortion, celibacy, divorce and women in the priesthood he refuses to relent. He encountered his opponents on an individual basis, yet refused to be swayed. He did, in fact, choose abortion as the major topic of his final homily in Washington, D.C. In this homily he said: "All human life—from the moment of conception and through all subsequent stages—is sacred, because human life is created in the image and likeness of God." Perhaps one may disagree with the Pope in context and argue that abortion is the most realistic answer to the question of how to curtail the growth of human population, but his sentiment is Anything's possible Carolinian Artwork by Bart Bennett beyond reproach. On this issue, as all others, he is seeking to provide the most humanistic solution to a major world problem. Such an approach can only be a healthy one. Someone once asked rhetorically how many soldiers the Pope actually had; the inference being that he had limited, if any at all, power. Perhaps this question has more relevance now than ever before. How many- soldiers indeed? Was the vibrant and electric- atmosphere generated by the Pope merely a temporary condition or did it bring to surface an inherent, if silent, attitude. Certainly one man cannot change all that is wrong in the world, but, as they say; every storm begins with a single raindrop. To be sure, inflation still pervades our economy and Soviet troops still violate "our" hemisphere. But for a •brief moment Catholics, Baptists, agnostics and atheists alike were given a chance to forget and to stop and ponder the notion that perhaps we are not as bad, or as bad off, as we had believed. Co-ed housing In Scott? By CAROLINA PEREZ Staff Writer Sam (not his real name), is a senior at WCU. His fiancee, Mary (not her real name), graduated last summer. Their four year relationship is typical of any loving all-American couple. But for twenty weeks, a long, long time ago, Sam and Mary accomplished something atypical—they lived together, without the knowledge of housing, the administration or even many of their friends, in a WCU residence hall. Sam, a well-educated liberal arts major, related the story of his twenty week escapade to this reporter. A few weeks after the beginning of fall semester 1976, his freshman year, Sam met Mary, and to coin an old cliche, it was "love at first sight!" They began to date and after a couple of weeks of having to hike back to his "lonely" room in the dead of the night, Sam and Mary decided that Sam should move his belongings into Mary's room, and live there. At this point Sam mentioned that back then, visitation rules were not very strictly enforced and therefore did not cause much of a hassle. He used the elevators freely, without an escort, and was never questioned. One of the biggest fears for Sam was meeting with the director of housing when leaving for class in the mornings. Mary would always have to scrutinize the halls to make sure they were clear, Sam would hasten to the back exit, run down the stairs and out the back door where the housing offices are located. "I was always scared of coming face to face with Chat Sue!" he said as he thought back on those days. A male living in a female dorm is not all fun and games as some would think, as this situation poses some problems. Shaving in the room was one pain he had to go through, another was having to make sure that the halls were clear when he wanted to go to the shower. He would run to the bathroom, take a quick shower, then dash back to the room. Firedrills also posed a problem for the couple. Whenever the alarm sounded, Sam would hide in the closet while Mary would go downstairs to wait. These drills scared Sam at first, mostly because the RA lived across the hall, but he soon became accustomed to the drills and the closeness of the RA. One night though, there were three fire drills which caused Sam to think that the rest of his life would be spent inside of a cramped closet! The girls on the hall knew about Sam, yet they never told on him, instead they watched out for and protected him. He still wonders at how easily the girls accepted him. "Without the girls I would never have made it!" Sam noted. Of all their college memories, Sam believes that those twenty weeks will stand out the most. "At least we'll have something to tell to our kids!" he said jokingly. Sam and Mary are now engaged and plan to be married around December.
