  • —The UCLA Press— %rWv\AAArV\rVWv\rV\rvwsrV\rvy\rVW\rVVWu%rv\^^ Lampoon Voice of the University of Cullowhee Left of Asheville Edition Beer at Last! Doug Shapemall captures Jimmy at his happiest moment. Jimmy's Mini-Mart of Cullowhee recently cornered a very lucrative market by obtaining a beer liscense from the North Carolina ABC Board. Jimmy Smith, owner and manager of the store, was ecstatic over the ruling. "The bar should be in by next month, but I expect it'll be a while before the pool tables get here,"said a smiling Jimmy. "Just think, whenever you need a pack of cigarettes, a bag of potato chips, or a case of Bud. you can drop in at Jimmy's and there it is." Mr. Smith has been the first to obtain the license since Cullowhee incorporated early last year. In an interesting sidelight to the story, it must be noted that Mr. Smith is also currently the victim of a student-sponsored petition drive aiming to make him the next president of the United States. "I know the kids mean well and are thankful for what we've accomplished, but 1 think a seat on the Board of Commissioners would be a much more realistic goal," added Mr. Smith. When asked why no one else had obtained a license. Jimmy merely chuckled quietly and scratched his head, saying "Now ain't that a shame?" Rolling Stoned to Appear The Rolling Stoned, a group many used to call 'the greatest in the world,' will be giving an unexpected and unbelievable concert in the newly erected Ben David Convocation Center. Matt Crunch, head of WAM (Wait A Minute) productions, said in an exclusive interview with The UCLA Press that after months of negotiations with the semi-retired band, a final settlement was made. Crunch offered the band a free week on the Nantahala plus total access to all the women's dorm's on campus, including Helder. Mick Jagged, spokesman and leader of the Stoned, wanted the whole crew (roadies, groupies) to go along on the Nantahala, but he compromised when Crunch threw in Helder. The Glimmer Twins (grey hair shines) thought the chance to see the cultural center of Western North Carolina was too heavy to turn down. AS has been already announced, tickets for the Stoned concert will go on sale whenever Jagged says so. What time that will be is impossible to figure, but tents have already been popping up in front of the box-office. please turn to page H Cafeteria to Rotate Again The long-rumored revolve in Dodson Cafeteria is about to become a reality. Finalization of the purchase of the rotation mechanization system constructed for the Sunsphere at the Knoxville World's Fair 1982 took place last week and the installation of the unit begins immediately after the close of the facility for the semester break. The Chancellor was extremely pleased with the outcome of the negotiations. "We were willing to offer up to $50,000 more than the settlement,"he said, "but we held out just long enough to make those suckers really sweat." The actual cost of the revolving unit has not yet been disclosed. Reasons for the purchase, according to the Chancellor, include making the dining situation a memorable experience, giving the university a significant structure, to enable all diners to view from the windows on an equal basis, "...and to help keep the upperclassmen from making such fools of the incoming students by making them believe that cafeteria turns when it really doesn't." njw1jWV1in-rjUVtAnfljtftf^
