TheVfestern Carolinian Voice of the Students Thursday, January 17, 1980 Vol. XLV, No. 16 fee skating, Indoor golf In marked contrast to last winter's snows, Cullowhee basked in spring-time weather this week. Carolinian Photo Editor E.S. McDaniel took advantage of the warm temperatures and sunshine to do this study of Old Union. Cambodians come to Cullowhee Cambodian refugees will arrive here in Cullowhee sometime this Friday to make a fresh start for themselves in our country. Cambodia has been ravaged with internal wars and famine for what seems to be an eternity. Rosalyn Carter and other celebrities have been urging Americans throughout the country to help the refugees with donations of food, clothing, homes, and money and now.it seems that the citizens of this area have a chance to help a homeless family. The refugee family consists of three males between the ages of twenty-five and thirty-twc, and they are being sponsored by four Cullowhee churches, the Presbyterian, the Catholic, the Lutheran, and the Episcopalian. Each church has sent two representatives to work on getting the paper work and all other necessary details done. Most of the immigrational paperwork was handled by a Lutheran Commission in New York which has handled cases like this one since the end of World Warr II. If you would like to help the refugees get settled in there are some basic items that thev will be needing such as: blankets, sheets (for single beds), pillows and pillow cases, kitchen utensils, bicycles (for transportation), and any other type of furniture such as a couch and living room chairs. If you have furniture to donate the number to call is 293-9339 from 6 to 8:30 p.m. Any items that you have can be brought to the Canterbury House adjoining St. David's Episcopal Church parking lot. We hope that you can help the refugees out and make them feel at home. WCU to have convention facility Western Carolina University will ask for funds in its 1981-83 capital improvements request to build a $10 million to $12 million regional convocation center for athletic, cultural, continuing education and conference activities. The proposed facility, university trustees were told at a meeting here Thursday, would seat up to 8,200 persons for non-athletic events and about 7,500 for basketball games. At least two trustees thought the capacity too small and recommended boosting it to as much as 10,000 seats. In another action, the trustees named the auditorium in the WCU Mountain Heritage Center "Founder Auditorium" in honor of the first nine-member board of trustees and the first president, R. L. Madison. A gallery of photographs and other displays will be created in the auditorium to perpetuate the memory of the founders. Disclosure of plans to build the convocation center came in a presentation of capital improvements requests being readied for the 1981-83 budget biennium. Dr. H. F. Robinson, chancellor, said the request to build the center is being recommended as the institutions first priority. Although similar facilities have be.en okayed on other campuses with the stipulation that students be taxed to pay part of the cost, Robinson said WCU will ask the state to appropriate the total amount. Site for the proposed center would be at the south end of Whitmire Stadium. Robinson emphasized that "we want to build, promote and run it as a regional facility for use by the people of Western North Carolina." He said, "there isn't a similar facility west of Asheville that will seat more than a thousand people." Kenneth L. Wood, director of institutional planning and studies, said the facility is being planned to accommodate commencement, concert, continuing education, stage, and similar activities. Some athletics administrative offices are planned for the center as well as a television communications center. In all, the building would enclose from 130,000 to 150,000 square feet of floor space, he said. Some features that may be incorporated include an ice skating rink, and bad-weather practice facilities for tennis, baseball and possibly golf. Among other features being looked at, the board was told, is an Turn to Page 14, Please Inside today. Editorial.„2 Columns...3 Photo feature...10-11 Sports...17-18 Classified...19
