  • News Western Carolinian/December 10, 1981 Astrology Aries (March 21-April 20); Your burdens have unwound your horns to long, straight, pointed spears. If you don't relax and work more systematically you'll prick someone. It's not as bad as it seems so curl your antlers back into their safety tucks and knock down the barriers at an even progression rather than buttingeverything at once. You're liable to break a horn! Taurus (April 21-May 20): Those "whinies" possessed by your dearest make you feel like you certainly rule, but when seen by your friends, the sincerest see you constantly portraying the fool. This holiday brings you decisions; all outcomes hold both good and bad. View it with objective precision and you'll find that you've really been had. Gemini (May 21-June 20); You have spring in your heart but the winter is actually approaching. Back up to the present. There are important matters to be covered before spring arrives (many of them worth backing up for) and to jump over them or to avoid them will only make pritemps less fun. Enjoy things as they came along, don't rush past them. Cancer (June 21-July 20): The Christmas spirit is hard to come by this year. Shopping is barely started, ifatall.and you just can't seem to find the initiative or the wherewithall to get to it. You've got time to get it in one pile if you don't panic. Pace it nicely and slowly and your holiday will rise to great heights. Leo (July 21-August 20): You've held back those inner feelings so long and hard that, instead of tapering off, they're building and boiling. If you don't rely on those closest to you, your roar will spurt forth in wild abandon. Your reliance can drain the pressure slowly, and. then the holidays will be pleasant and joyful. Virgo (August 21-September 20): Pleasant events have occurred in the recent past, but your anticipation of a drudge-filled holiday may taint that glow. If you let it, the glow can make the holiday doings much easier. Relax and enjoy yourself. You can have fun no matter how many stacks of it you have to move. Libra (September 21-October 20): You're really on the ball! The upcoming vacation is so close you almost want to start celebrating now. You've worked hard to keep up, but don't quit yet because the end is only in sight, not in the past. Approach it with delicate ease and you'll successfully slip right through into the well-deserved festivities. Scorpio (October 21-November 20): Your stinger is getting tingy. You feel like you have to zap someone. Wait until the poison boils down and then you won't hurt anyone. Once you've lowered your tail from the striking position you'll find others far more receptive and less threatened. A venimous plunge will be more painful to you than to your victim. Sagittarius (November 21-December 20): You think you've done right all along, but you have included an innocent by-stander in your list. Review the chronology of events and you'll find that you may have been the first to step out of line. The holiday will be a good time to renew contact. The tension at the offset will quickly change to relaxation and acceptance. Capricorn (December 21 -January 20): You have a double- billed holiday approaching, so you are beginning to expect special treatment from others. You've been faring well lately and you like it. Remember, a lot of those good feelings come from others' reactions to your radiance. Don't expect anymore than you're willing to offer. What's good for the goose is good for the goose. Aquarius (January 21-February 20): Right now you feel so overworked that you'll never be finished. Throw those bearers of liquid desires right out the window. You're simply playing lugubrious games with yourself and others, and that's standing in the way of your productivity. Don't play with the inventions of the monsters until you're clear of responsibilities, and then your desires will be accomodated. Pisces (February 21-March 20): You feel the outcome of your holiday depends greatly on you. You're right! So don't let the idiosyncracies of others get in your way. Find humor in them...it's there. Keep your head erect, a smile on your face, a laugh in your heart and scream for joy when you're pleased. Do exactly the same thing except scream when you're not.

Future Energy Some energy experts advocate a future world powered by plutonium-fed breeder reactors. Such reactors, they say, are extremely efficient since they actually create more fuel than they use. But others warn that plutonium is far too dangerous to be used as a source of energy. They argue that it is highly carcinogenic, that it can be used to create nuclear weapons and that it takes a quarter of a million years for just half of a given amount of the man-made substance to decay. These and other viewpoints on the subject of breeder reactors will be discussed in depth as part of a special topics course on energy to be offered at WCU during the 1982 spring semester. While the course will address the pros and cons of breeder reactors, it also will take a comprehensive look at other energy-related topics. Questions such as "What kind of barrel has OPEC got the United States over?" and "How will acid rain and other energy by-products affect our environment?" are just a couple that will be posed in the three-hour credit course. Other topics will include historical perspectives, current socio-political issues, energy conservation, the technology and economics of renewable and nonrenewable energy and energy choices for the future. The course will meet Thursdays from 7 until 10 p.m. on the WCU campus. It will be taught by a team of about 10 teachers from the School of Arts and Sciences and coordinated by Dr. H.E. Price, associate professor of sociology and anthropology. The basic text for the course will be a reader entitled "Energy and the Way We Live," edited by Melvin Kranzberg. Timothy A. Hall, and Jane L. Scheiber. In addition to classroom discussions, students will have an opportunity to tour laboratories dealing with research in nuclear studies at Oak Ridge National Laboratories and to visit the National Energy Museum at Oak Ridge. The course may also include a trip to the World's Fair in Knoxville, Tenn., to see the "Energy Expo '82" exhibit. Students in the elective course will be required to write a term paper on any aspect of the energy problem and to take a final examination that will stress a comprehensive understanding of energy choices for the future. Grading will be either "S" for satisfactory or "U" for unsatisfactory. Persons interested in taking the course may register Monday, Jan. 18, 1982, from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. at the sociology-anthropology station in the Grandroom of Hinds University Center. For more information, call Dr. HE. Price at 227-7194. Telephone Convienence About 1,000 students and several hundred administrators and faculty members at Western Carolina University will find it easier to dial long distance special calls when the telephone company converts to a new "0 plus" dialing system. The conversion takes place about 2 a.m. Saturday,. Dec. 5, according to Rick Blair, network services district manager for Western Carolina Telephone Company. It is the final phase of a $3-million long-distance modernization program for six western North Carolina counties including Jackson County as well as Cullowhee and WCU. Under the new plan, campus LD calls will continue to use access codes (using the number "8" for all toll calls, station-to-station or any others). The procedure goes like this: For station to station calls, continue to dial 8, plus 1, plus the area code if it's different from 704, then the distant number. For all other calls-person-to-person, collect, credit card, calls charged to a third number-first dial 8, plus 0, plus the area code if it's different from 704, then the distant number. "It's going to be faster now," said Blair. "It's faster to pick up your telephone and make a long distance call with virtually the same procedure used for a local call, than it is to go through the steps of placing the call with an operator." About 40,000 WCTC customers across Jackson, Macon, Swain, Graham, Cherokee, and Clay counties are affected by the new dialing system. More than 3,200 of these are in the Cullowhee exchange, including 1,683 instruments in the dorms and elsewhere on the WCU campus. About 1,000 students subscribe to toll service on campus. from page 1 animal in the Carolinian so that owners might locate their pets. Mrs. Hicks said, "We (the Humane Society) don't want to give someone's dog away." However, she did go onto say that when they can advertise they can usually find homes for the animals. This is one way that owners as well as those that might be looking for a dog or cat might see just what they are looking for. Mrs. Hicks was very firm in stating that the problems the university had with stray animals was now taken care of. The complete details have not been worked out, but the animals are now under the protective wing of the Humane Society and the A.R.F. program. When asked how she felt about all this, Mrs. Hicks said she was very happy about the whole situation. . , „ .. by Larry Hardin Tremblant Skis $85.00 Skis, boots, poles, bindings $125.00 Cullowhee Outfitters 293-9741 We rent cross country and Downhill skis
