  • PAGE 6 LETTERS Continued from page 5 on campus. The sole purpose of the article was to promote this group that was just starting up. Lavender Bridges as an organization has not been recognized by S.G.A. or the administration of Western Carolina. So if it is still in the beginning stages how can we be one of the last campuses to have such an organization? I am still eagerly anticipating the appointment of thier (sic) faculty adviser which they are supposedly looking for. What professor would stoop low enough to support and beassociatedwitha group that is not only morally wrong but is in fact illegal? I charge that the students at Western are not only ashamed of such a group on their campus but they are downright against it. Soto the members of Lavender Bridges if you are looking for support from the student body you will have to look elsewhere. Have you thought about Iceland? G. Lance Morris PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR PREFERENCE IS Dear Editor So the SGA will not fund Lavender Bridges because its members might engage in certain practices that are deemed illegal... Another inspired argument from our mini-bureaucrats! I think it is pretty obvious to most people, even to some serious homopho- bics, that this organization is being established not for the purpose of engaging in SGA sanctioned sodomy, but rather as a source of identity and as a support group for a deeply misunderstood and often maligned minority. But if the SGA wants to get nit- picky about legalities- what about the funding of some other campus activities? For example: SGA funds WWCU. This by itself (if you ignore the issue of government controlled media) is perfectly legitimate. However, on Sunday mornings, for some three very trying hours, the 1 entire Cullowhee community is treated to "His Music." Apparently, the possessive pronoun refers to the ecclesiastical "him" — whether they mean G-d, Jesus Christ, or perhaps the entire trinity is a question better fit for the Council of Nicaea! "His Music" features contemporary Christian music from both syndicated shows and taped selections played by a live and zealous D.J. This D.J.is presumably a student, but he gets to play preacher every Sunday morning! Wow! He seems really serious about this, as he takes 15 to 20 minutes between each record tolaya littleenvangelismon the listening audience. So the SGA is taking my tuition money to sponsor evangelism and take up airwave time with their particular preference of spiritual enlightenment. Could this perhaps beunconstitutional(rememberthe US Constitution?) SGA has had a notorious problem understanding the concept of the freedom of the press. It seems now their having the same problem with separation of Church and State. Or maybe WWCU could play a variety of spiritually helpfu I music — cantor music , druid hymns, hare krishna chants, even a little Bob Marley. Or better still- why doesn't the SGA give Lavender Bridges its funding and perhaps everyone in Cullowhee can live their lives in the manner they prefer. Sincerely, Barbara Rosenthal IN WINTER'S WAKE The events of those long hot days with sand blowing on the Library landing like a tropical storm are now just memories. There were classes being held in their usual style. A lot of subject matter being digested in optimum time. Those days were pleasant even tho' the summer maintenance seemed so demanding at the time. The jobs of restoration, while the least number of students are out and about, were a bit trying at times but were completed. The student help on campus grew as long as those treasured days. The paint crew was identified by one of its' superior employees as the International Crew. Obviously their background prompted that identity. There were seven students who gave it their best shot, for their summer education in developing the fine art of using a sanding pole, a wire brush, a wheelbarrow, a gymnasium mop&thedistinguish- edd "paint brush" . Such capable, willing young people. A shee r diversion in personalities and a learning experience even for us painters. We were taught about propaganda films of the U.S., Customs of Thailand, the pretty girls of Jamaica & the beliefs of a growing religion, the territorial rights of reptiles and even the measured growth of Kudzu. We were artfully introduced to feelings of understanding, love and laughter We weren't always successful in grasping all they were trying to relate butasmileoratouchwasall that was needed to assure them & us both that we did exchange the realization that in fact, we are all Brothers & Sisters. A beautiful reassurance. A couple students have hung on to supplement their income, so they may complete their studies. Others have left for their homeland. And there are a few who are still on campus and we have the opportunity to ccess each other's paths form time to time. Memories are vivid. Rememberances of some of the events are recalled among us painters occassionally. Those recollections are so pleasurable. They are filled with such tender feelings and broad smiles. I wish them all Godspeed, a bountiful fall harvest, wherever they are, and a continuing smile that does relate us all. P.D.,Joe-Bob, Ned and Dan C.J. Harris Community Hospital's Construction Program Gets Aid from Lambda Chi Alpha Fraternity Members of the Lamba Chi Alpha Fraternity of Western Carolina University visited the construction site of C.J. Harris Community Hospital recently. Tim Gillespie, president, presented a check for $200.00 to Alton Byers, director of finance at the hospital, to be used as part of the construction program. The money was raised at the 16th annual River Race sponsored by the Fraternity. Lamba Chi Alpha Fraternity has previously donated time and money to the hospital capital fund campaign as part of their community service activities.

WHAT THE HECK IS CHLAMYDIA? What is Chlamydia? A new religious cult on campus? A rare, exotic species of wild flower? Neither. Chlamydia is a highly prevalent sexually transmitted disease. As a matter of fact, it is recognized as the most prevalant sexually transmitted disease today. Unlike Herpes II, chlamydia can be treated and cured. Diagnosis is fairly simple. A culture can be made from a cervical smear of a woman or from penile discharge of a man. This test is performed routinely at Graham Infirmary. Chlamydia can be transmitted by a person who is totally unaware he or she has a problem. This is because this sneaky little bug doesn't always produce noticeable symptoms. If symptoms do exist, they resemble those of Gonorrhea. In women there might be burning on urination, increased vaginal discharge, lower abdomen discomfort, and sometimes bleeding. These symptoms can be confused with Urinary Tract Infections (Cystitis) and with several other types of vaginitis. In males-the symptoms would be the same as for nogonococcial urethritis, burning on urination possibly accompanied by penile discharge. When chlamydia goes untreated it can cause serious complications. In males, untreated chlamydia can cause infection that leads to sterility. In women, chlamydia is the leading cause of sterility. The best protection against chlamydia besides abstinence, is the use of a condom and/or diaphragm. These methods of protection are not fool proof, however. For a person who is sexually active, especially with more than one partner, it may be wise to have atestforchlamydiaas one would have a pap smear, routinely. This isespeciallytrue, if you are one of the unfortunates who has recurrent "Cystitis" flare- ups-Check with us at The Health Services. Telephone number: 227-7430.
