  • April 14, 1994 Western Carolinian Hurried commuters may endanger live: John Everson Staff Reporter Being in a hurry to find a parking space is a typical frustration many commuters at WCU have. As these students are pressed on getting to class on time, many appear unconcerned with the safety of the pedestrians who must also get to class. Concerning this dilemma, Gene McAbee, Director of Public Safety, said that he "perceived the traffic problem as a type of self-centeredness among members of our community. They get so wrapped up in their own thoughts that they forget to be courteous to other people." McAbee asserts, "There are more parking spaces per registered vehicle here than at any other state institution. If there is a parking problem at WCU, it is a problem of inconvenience. "The commuter Iotacross Harrill Dorm is never full, and it's only 500yards from there to Mckee. There are additional lots beside the football field, behind the Ramsey Center, in frontof the baseball field and behind the library thatare in much better walkingdistance than are the parking lots at other major universities." During class changes there are three officers to cover three main crosswalks: in front Political comedy with a serious edge Colleen Vasconcellos Staff Reporter Shirley McLaine and Nicholas Cage star in "Guarding Tess," a political comedy with a serious edge. Cage, a U.S. Secret Service agent, is guarding Tess, played by McLaine, a former first lady. These two have the a usual love-hate relationship. She loves to torment him, and he hates her guts. Tess lives and thrives on spontaneity. She plays golf in twenty degree weather, has picnics by the lake in snowstorms and flies to operas two states away at the last minute. Unbeknownst to Cage, Tess has an inoperable brain tumor and is expected to liveonly a few years. This tragic secret is the true reason for her outlandish behavior. The two go on with their slapstick routine until one day when Tess is kidnapped. Cage assumes the stunt is another one of her gags when the chauffeur speeds off with Tess in the back seat of thelimo. Cagenotifies the state police and returns to Tess' mansion to await her return. The gag turns out not to be a gag but a real kidnapping. Cage realizes just how much Tess means to him and desperately tries to find her and her kidnapper. Although this movie is extremely funny, it also has a very serious side. It occasionally brings a tear to the viewer's eye. McLaineandCageareexcellent. They work well together and make it hard to tell who is supporting whom. I give "Guarding Tess" three stars. It is a wonderful story and shows a different side of Washington, DC, and the people of Capitol Hill. of both Dodson Cafeteria and Scott Hall and one under the traffic light at Wachovi Concerning this McAbee said,"Since July 1,1993, officers had been placed at these poin] a total of 1440 times." ^^ McAbee believes that there is no need for additional safety measures concerning tl flow of traffic at WCU. He added that both pedestrians who don't cross at one of tj crosswalks when crossing the street and vehicles that don't yield to pedestrians at the! crosswalks are in violation of state law. Since 1986, approximately two pedestrians and three bikers have been hit by careld drivers. Since January, campus police have only issued four state citations to students fl failingtoobey proper trafficprocedures,butatleasttwenty verbal citatjonsaregivennearr every week. Regarding common sense, McAbee contends, "In an academic intelligence cornmi nity, a police officer should not have to tell a pedestrian not to step in front of a vehicle ( for a vehicle not to run over a pedestrian." f Chancellor & Mrs. Coulter to be Honored at Retirement Dinner Western Carolina University Chancellor Myron L.
