Rich King was a name given to Neal about two years ago while working at WWWI-FM in Greensboro. "One day my program director came in and told me Neal Andrews would not work on the air. He gave me the name Rich and told me to find another one syllable last name." To make a long story short, Andrews, who is an avid racing fan, decided on the last name of King for "the King" of stock car racing's Richard Petty. However, Neal points out that otherwise the name Rich King is in no way connected to the famous race car driver. "I like to be my own person," he added. Andrews is a senior in his last semester at Western. He is a graduate of Northeast Guilford High School near Greensboro. He has always held an interest in broadcasting since his early childhood. "I remember my very first record player. I would plug in the microphone and create hours of endless programming....! had weather, news, and of course sports to compliment my music charts." Once he reached high school, Andrews had to decide between remaining on his family farm or chasing his dreams in broadcasting. Finally he chose school and decided to attend Western Carolina because of its smaller size compared to UNC— Chapel Hill and several two-year broadcasting schools. "Ithinkthat Western Carolina University has been a good choice, and we have a good program here." Andrews has been a staff Rich Matteson, Jazz Great to Visit Cullowhee Internationally recognized jazz recording artist Rich Matteson will appear at Western Carolina University on Friday, April 24, as part of the Seventh Annual Jazz Clinic, sponsored by the WCU Department of Music. Matteson will present an improvisation clinic at 1.00 p.m. (free admission) and rehearse with the WCU Jazz Ensemble at 3:00 p.m. (free admission). At 8:00 p.m. he will appear in concert with the WCU Jazz Ensemble under the direction of Mario Gaetano. The admission charge for the concert will be $2.00 for adults, and $1.00 for students and senior citizens. All events will be in the recital hall of the music building on the Cullowhee campus. Rich Matteson is recognized internationally as one of the most exciting jazz soloists and clinicians. A graduate of the University of Iowa, Rich has had a wide and varied career as a public school music teacher, professional performer, conductor, arranger, composer and college professor. He is an outstanding recording musician in every jazz idiom;.having recorded with Louis Armstrong in Dixieland style on tuba, college and professional big bands on bass trumpet, valve trombone and euphonium, his own small group recordings on several albums in Sweden and the famous Matteson-Phillips Tubajazz Consort albums. He was a professor at North Texas State University for 13 years, teaching jazz improvisation. He also was the director of the National Stage Band Camps for many years and produced and directed the Rich Matteson International Jazz Camps in Sweden. Rich has performed during the last 19 years as clinician and guest soloist at high schools, colleges and universities throughout the world. He has appeared at State, Regional and National MENC Conventions, MAJE National Conventions, The Mid-West National Band Clinics and many of the major jazzfestivalsand clubs world-wide. Rich has also appeared on network television and recorded radio shows in the United States, Sweden, Germany, England, Norway and Australia. Rich is co-leader and arranger for the Matteson-Phillips Tubajazz Consort.

He has been associated with Yamaha Musical Products as a clinician and concert artist and has also served as a clinician and performer in the Walt Disney All American College Workshop program since 1975. In 1986, Ira Koger endowed a chair, in honor of Rich, at the University of North Florida. He is currently director of the New School of American Music for Jazz Studies. This year marks *k Seventh Annual Jazz Clinic held at WCU. Past soloists and clinicians have included Grammy nominees Nick Brignola and Bobby Shew, "Tonight Show" drummer Ed Shaughnessy, and jazz artists Jerry Coker, Vincent Di Martino, and Jim Petercsak.

Cherokee Museum I "Great Smokies Heritage" Exhibit Opens The Great Smokies Heritage Spring Art Show officially opened at the Museum of the Cherokee Indian on Saturday April 11, with the presentation of awards in six categories. The exhibition includes a total of sixty-five artistic works, all of which depict aspects of mountain heritage. The Exhibit's Grand Prize (s500.00) was awarded to Gail McKinley, a painter from Wahalla, South Carolina. Ms. McKinley's painting, "Sunrise in the Thicket," effectively captures the spread of morning light through the undergrowth of a forest where nocturnal animals struggle for survival. The focal point of the painting is a woodland owl, caught for an instant in the glowing light, a limp mouse clutched in its talons. The First Prize in the Painting Division (MOO.00) went to Cherokee artist, William R. Taylorfor an air brush-and-ink portrait. The People's Choice Award (s100.00) went to Diana Hudgens, a former Native American Exhibit winner, for her poignant painting, "Smokie Mountain Sunrise." Two Cherokee women stand on a windswept, barren expanse beneath a lowering sky, and look toward a distant mountain range. "Smokie Mountain Sunrise" seems to evoke the yearning of fhe disinherited for a lost homeland. First Prize in the Exhibit's Sculpture Division (M 00.00) has been awarded to William Eleazer of Sytva for his bronze sculpture, "The Long Hunter," a piece that could be a prototype for all legendary hunters from Daniel Boone to Bog Tom Wilson. James W. Brown of Sytva received fhe New Artist Award ($ 100.00) for his painting entitled "White Cats," a delightful acrylic of two serene felines whose color is contrasted with wood grain and a brilliantly beaded belt. • The Great Smokies Exhibit contains numerous examples of exciting artwork. Especially worthy of comment are Jim Smith's "The Ready Watcher" and Nina Anderson's "Patchwork Genius." Other works such as Barbara Andrew's "The Old Gardner" and James Brown's "Christmas Day," indicate the richness and variety of the Exhibit's theme. Visitors to the Museum should pay particular attention to the sculpture displays where a hand-carved belt buckle by Goingback Chiltoskey nestles among William R. Taylor's carvings and William Eleazer's bronze figures. High above the paintings, mounted on one of the Museum's support beams are three masks by John Julius Wilnoty. These masks, like ancient archetypes of a vanished culture seem to look down on the Museum visitors with expressions that blend the comical with the macabre. The Great Smokies Spring Art Show Exhibit will remain on display at the Museum of the Cherokee Indian through May 4. In addition, a second art show sponsored by the Museum, the "Mountain Heritage Art Show," will open at the Sequoyah Birthplace Museum in Vonore, Tennessee on June 5.

Classic Rock King - Neal Andrews -Edwin Carlton Photo member of WWCU for a year now and this is his first semester with a weekly air shift; however he is not new to radio. He has four years of commercial radio experience working at WSML-AM in Graham, N.C, WWWI-FM in Greensboro, and currently at WREV-AM in Reidsville, N.C. "In a way I regret not getting an earlier start at the campus station, but by working the past four years in the real world this has enlightened me a lot more." He went on to say that both are great experience and confidence builders. Since taking on the Tuesday night Rock show this semester, Andrews has put lots of creativity into the show. "I thought that it would be neat to have one of the Rock nights be a Classic Rock night. He credits program director Kenny Ray (Reed) with allowing him the freedom "to do what I wanted to do with the show." Andrews, says that he patterned the show after WKRR -"Rock 92" in Greensboro, a popular newformat in that market. "It appealed to me and many of my friends, so I figured it would work here in Cullowhee." He says he gets many compliments with the alternating of older hits and "plain hard rock." "I want people who listen to the show to say, 'hey, I haven't heard that song in a long time.'" Andrews makes no bones about it; he realizes that being a disc jockey is not for him. "I don't want to spin records and starve the rest of my life," he says jokingly. His goals are to work his way into radio management as a production or program director/and his sights are set on sports- broadcasting and commentating. Andrews has worked the pastyear"calling play- by-play" for most of Western's athletic events in an independent study course. "I enjoy watching as well as participating in sports, and I feel I have the creativity and ability to paint the audience a picture of what is happening." Neal would like one day to work for Jefferson- Pilot Communications, ESPN, or MRN, the motor racing network. However, after school he plans on working in radio and calling local college and high school games. Andrews is a member of Alpha Epsilon Rho, the National Broadcasting Society. Recentlyhe and four other members of the WCU chapter won scholarship awards for the purpose of traveling and representing Western Carolina University at the National Convention in St. Louis. After getting to know Neal Andrews or Rich King, which ever name you prefer, one realizes that the goals he has set for himself will be attained. He relys heavily on personality, creativity, and just being himself, rather than immitating others, he says. He has a strong relationship with God, his "close-nit" family, and good friends whom he attributes all his success to. "Instead of being 'high-strung' on myself, I want to credit all those around me for their help." "If it weren'tforthem, I would not have anyone to pick me up when I fall flat on myface... and it's the ones around me who give me the support and encouragement I need."
