KAs request
informal
conference
Scott Wilkerson
Assistant etc. Editor
Strong protest against Kappa
Alpha Order's April 25 Old
South parade illuminated the
nature of the University's racial
tension; the KAs decision not to
attend the SGAs May 29 collo­quium
on race relations under­scored
the intricacy of reconcil­ing
ideology and the freedoms
of contemporary culture.
John Huff, KA president, said
in a letter received by The
Plainsman Tuesday, "...I felt that
informal meetings would bene­fit
both parties more as far as
coming to an understanding
with one another rather than an
open forum with many giving
their opinions one way or
another."
When asked why he felt
informality was more appropri­ate,
Huff said, "I sent the letter.
I really don't want to answer
any questions. I don't want to
talk about it. I don't want to
talk. And thaf s all."
Liz Humphrey, SGA secretary
of public relations and forum
organizer, said, "I believe the
KAs didn't come because they
thought it was going to be a KA
bashing session.
"I believe also, they believe
the issue can be solved but are
afraid things will be taken away
from them, like, for instance,
their tasteless flag which repre­sents
oppression for my peo­ple."
SGA president Jon Waggoner
said he was aware of the con­tents
of Huff's letter but had
not, himself, received a copy.
He said, "I know only one
thing. The Old South parade as
it exists now is dangerous.
There is much good and bad
about the parade, but it facilitat­ed
a riot that had the potential
for killing students on this cam­pus
and that is unacceptable.
The two sides have got to meet.
And before my term ends next
April, something productive
will be done."

Proposal calls for dissolution
Senate member requests change in Board of Trustees
Matthew P. Moore
etc. Editor
In a largely unanticipated
ending to the July 9 meeting of
the University Senate meeting,
Hank Bart, assistant professor
of zoology and wildlife, pre­sented
a resolution that called
for the dissolution of the
Board of Trustees.
"Now therefore be it
resolved that the University
Senate formulate a petition ...
and appoint a new board of
individuals with no personal
or familial stake in the finan­cial
affairs of the University,"
Bart read to the members pre­sent.
The resolution stated that
the "...events of the past two
years have caused this frame­work
to crumble into a night­mare
of dissension, infighting,
dishonesty and general
hypocrisy..." and alluded to
the denial of tenure to
Catholic theologian Charles
Curran.
After the resolution was
read, John Grover, professor of
fisheries and the constitutional
consultant to the president of
the Senate, said that Gov. Guy
Hunt probably did not have
the authority to dissolve the
board and suggested that Bart
reword the resolution and pre­sent
it at a future meeting.
Following Robert's Rules of
Order, Grover said that the res­olution
was out of order and
therefore was to be dismissed.
Eugene Clothiaux, Senate
Chair, approved the recom­mendation
made by Grover
and dismissed the resolution.
Bart said the resolution was
written by a colleague of his in
the zoology department but
declined to give the writer's
name.
Bart said he wasn't sure
what the next step would be,
and when asked if he would
seek legal advice on the matter
he replied, "Perhaps."
Bart said it was possible that
the resolution would be pre­sented
at the next meeting.
Josef Renden, associate pro­fessor
of poultry science and
representative of the ad hoc
Committee on University
Governance, said that a major
problem lies in the inadequate
communication between fac­ulty
and the trustees.
In other business:
• George Emert, executive
vice-president, said that there
would be "... an increase in
tuition this fall," and that the
chances of the state legislature
passing the new budget soon
were slim.
• Emert said that the ground­breaking
for the new swim­ming
complex was going to be
August!.
Solar eclipse to leave Auburn in partial shadows
Shannon Garnett
Staff Writer
If the sky gets a little overcast
today, it won't be because of
rain. It will be because of a par­tial
solar eclipse, which will be
visible from Auburn.
The last visible eclipse was in
May of 1984. The coverage of
this eclipse was 99 percent, said
Robert Gardner, a mathematics
GTA.
Eclipses usually occur every
four to five years, he said.
Gardner taught an astronomy
class several quarters ago. He
has observed several previous
eclipses, and he said this one is
a different from previous ones.
"Almost everyone in the conti­nental
United States will get to
see a piece of it," he said.
With this eclipse, the moon is
closer to the earth, and its image
is larger than the sun, so the
length of totality will be almost
six minutes, Gardner said.
The length of totality (time of
darkness) doesn't affect
Auburn, but people in Southern
Baja will experience complete
darkness for this length of time,
and they will possibly see stars,
Gardner said.
The eclipse will pass across
Hawaii, Southern Baja, Mexico
City and die out at Brazil.
Today's eclipse will have a 44
percent coverage, Gardner said.
The partial eclipse will begin
in Auburn at 1:27 p.m., the mid­point
will be at 2:31 p.m. and it
will end at 3:31 p.m.
Many ancient people used to
fear an eclipse. As Charlotte
Ward, associate professor of
physics, said, "Wouldn't you be
scared if the sun suddenly dis­appeared
for no apparent rea­son?"
See Eclipse, page 12

This 1984 eclipse might have scared ancient
cultures, but Auburn should not fear. Resi­dents
should take viewing precautions by
not looking directly into the sun.
University hopes to attract
athletes with pool complex
James M. Foster
Assistant Sports Editor
In the shadow of the 1996
Olympic Games being held in
Atlanta, the Board of Trustees
has finally approved funding
sources that will allow construc­tion
to begin on Auburn's
multi-million dollar natatorium.
The swimming complex is
designed to provide Auburn
with a facility to actively com­pete
and develop a top-notch
swimming program, but Herb
White, Auburn's executive
director of public relations, said
the pool may also attract foreign
countries that need a place to
practice and train before the
Olympics.
"What we are interested in
doing first is developing an
inventory of our facilities. We
are wry interested in having
facilities that will attract foreign
countries," White said.
He also said Dave Marsh,
Auburn's head swimming
coach, will be taking a list of the
facilities to the Pan-Am games
in Cuba to try and entice some
countries into selecting Auburn
as a practice location.
Mel Rosen, Auburn's track
coach, will be doing the same
when he goes to Barcelona to
coach the U.S. Olympic Track
Team in the 1992 games.
Both White and President
James E. Martin denied that the
Olympics played a role in hav­ing
the complex's funding
approved.
"The University has had a
need for it for a long time, and
we wouldn't put it in just for
the Olympic Games, but it may

Nation
Black leaders remain wary of nominee
As the battle lines are being drawn, the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored People announced it will
defer an official appraisal of Judge Clarence Thomas, President
Bush's choice to fill the Supreme Court vacancy, until it can
conduct a comprehensive review of his record, according to
The New York Times.
N.A.A.C.P. leaders find Thomas' stand on issues like abor­tion
and affirmative action immediately problematic. In this
connection, Thomas' background as chairman of the Reagan
Administration's Equal Employment Opportunity Commission
may serve as an index to the kind of decisions he might be
expected to render as a member of the Supreme Court and thus
determine whether the civil rights organization confers him its
endorsement.
Iran-Contra scandal nears exorcism
Principal Iran-Contra prosecutor, Lawrence E. Walsh may,
through a projected plea bargain with former Central Intelli­gence
Agency officer Alan D. Fiers, summon the real demons
of the arms for hostages affair, according to The New York
Times.
Among those implicated is the current United States Ambas­sador
to South Korea, Donald P. Gregg, who served as the
national security advisor under Vice-President Bush during
the time the illegal arms sales transpired. Fiers' testimony is
expected to help reveal the extent to which the highest tiers of
the Reagan Administration understood the covert transactions.
The investigation, now almost five years old, has cost more
than $25 million.
World
Iraq confesses nuclear sins, cooperates
After thwarting initial United Nation efforts to inspect and
assess the scope of its nuclear capability, Iraq admitted Tues­day
it has a nuclear weapon program and agreed to allow the
U.N. task force to view its installations, according to The Birm­ingham
News.
Saddam Hussein's new spirit of accommodation is not
enough, however, to convince many administration officials all
the nuclear research and development sites are being disclosed.
President Bush still does not rule out the possibility of mili­tary
action to enforce U.N. resolutions.
State
Toxic waste may contaminate session
Legislators have until the July 29 deadline of their current
session to set a fair price for the storage of chemical waste in
Alabama and save the state $25 million in reimbursement for
overcharging ChemWaste, a waste storage firm, during the last
year. Such a refund would precipitate layoffs for hundreds of
state workers, according to The Birmingham News.

Proposal calls for Greek integration
The Office of Student Affairs is preparing to release a proposal
which includes a call for integration of sororities and fraternities
within five years, according to The Crimson White.
Copies of the 19-page proposal will be sent to each sorority
and fraternity member and to active alumni, Harry Knopke, vice
president for student affairs said.
According to the proposed system, each Greek house will
begin a self-evaluation next fall, and Greek chapters will be eval­uated
on a rotating basis over the next five years.
University President Roger Sayers said he supports the whole
system.
Georgia
Junior starter dismissed from University
Antonio Harvey, a forward for the Bulldogs basketball team,
was released from the team and is academically ineligable for
the 1991-92 season, The Red and Black reported.
Harvey failed to pass a required 36 hours over the past three
quarters to be eligible under NCAA guidelines.
The 6-foot-ll, 220-pound Harvey was the SEC's third-leading
shot blocker this past season, and he averaged 7.2 points and 4.3
rebounds.
Harvey will be allowed to reapply to Georgia in winter quar­ter,
1992, if he passes 10 hours at another school.

tation misses Safe Harbor boat
X3L passes
ip opportunity
use obscenity
I Laura Brantley
I Assistant Features Editor
WEGL 91.1 FM will not modi-
Ify its policy on questionable
(material, although the Federal
•Communications Commission
Ihas once again changed their
(stance on Safe Harbor and regu­lation
of obscene and indecent
Imaterial.
Safe Harbor was created by
I the FCC to establish a certain
I time when questionable materi-lal
may be aired by a radio sta-
I tion.
In April of this year the FCC
Iproposed a 24-hour ban on
1 "indecent" broadcast material,
[but it was struck down by the
[US. Court of Appeals. Safe Har­bor
is back, and the FCC will
continue to enforce the hours of
[Safe Harbor from 8 p.m. to 6
I a;.m.
WEGL recently had to face
hthe dilemma of whether to insti-
| tute Safe Harbor into the pro­gramming.
The major problem
^seems to be in defining what is
I decent and what is not. .
The FCC defines obscenity as:
1) material which an average
person, applying contemporary
community standards, finds
[^unwholesome;
;2) material which depicts or
describes, in a patently offen­sive
way as measured by con­temporary
community stan­dards,
sex or excretory conduct;
and
a "3) material, taken as a whole,
which lacks serious literary,
Announcers class
produces deejays

Staff Writer
artistic, political, or scientific
value.
The FCC defines indecent
material as "language or materi­al
that depicts or describes, in
terms patently offensive as mea­sured
by contemporary commu­nity
standards for the broadcast
medium, sexual or excretory
activities or organs."
Much confusion has erupted
at WEGL about these vague
delineations of Safe Harbor, and
at the present time, station man­ager
Tracy Guenther, 04RTF,
says that she will not institute
Safe Harbor at WEGL.
"It wouldn't be good to jump
into Safe Harbor with the defi­nition
being so vague. The size
of Auburn determines what we
play. If there is a question on
whether something is decent or
indecent, then we don't play it,"
Guenther said.
Guenther said she feels that
the listeners are happy with
WEGL and the improvement of
the quality of the station.
Ken Sanderson, 04VAT, host
of WEGLs Mystery Playhouse
show, which caters mainly to
Auburn's punk crowd, said his
show suffers the most when a
ban is imposed.
"The more angry and pas­sionate
music can't be played
and things like 'I hate my gosh
darn boss' and 'golly I hate my
government' doesn't cut it,"
Sanderson said.
Kasey Reaves, 03PRJ, said she
thinks Safe Harbor is a good
idea. "WEGL should institute
Safe Harbor because Auburn is
a diverse community and its
audience is mainly composed of
a core set of listeners.
Reaves also said she feels
there is no way the station can
worry about who is listening to
what music 24 hours of the day.
Art by Tom Gholston
"People who listen to WEGL
will probably not be offended
by what they play. College
music is supposed to be new
and innovative, and I don't feel
you can have progress without
offending some people," she
said. "They have a show for
everyone."
The FCC has recommended
following Safe Harbor from 10
p.m. to 6 a.m. The commission
also recommends that the more
controversial material be played
later.
FCC said radio stations
should always use a disclaimer,
and they should enforce inside
disciplinary actions for viola­tions
of Safe Harbor.
Steve Padgett, a communica­tions
professor, said that the
FCC has raised the penalty for
Safe Harbor violations to an
excess of $250,000 for serious
offenses.
Any student who has
thought of becoming a disc
jockey for a radio station
might be interested in WEGL's
new announcer's class.
The class "prepares you to
be an on-the-air deejay even if
you don't want to be," said
Phillip Ratliff, 04 RTF, produc­tions
manager for the station.
Tracy Guenther, 04RTF, the
station manager at WEGL,
teaches the new announcers
class with Gail Schaafsma,
04GRTF, program manager,
and Chris Mixon, 03PEE, oper­ations
manager.
Guenther said the class,
which meets every Tuesday
and includes the rules and reg­ulations
for radio program­ming,
"teaches prospective
announcers the basic runnings
of the station." This quarter's
class has an enrollment of 34
students, which is the largest
number WEGL has had during
the summer. She said she
attributes this increase to the
improvement of the quality of
the station in the past few
years.
The class teaches Federal
Communications Commission
(FCC) regulations and instruc­tions
on how to use WEGL's
equipment. Students must also
participate on one of the fol­lowing
staffs: music, news,
sports, public service
announcements or produc­tions.
A director from each
management staff assists in
teaching specialized areas of
radio.

Health experts claim
Stress-related pressures cause other ailments
'Laura Douglas
Staff Writer
* On a good night, Darren East-all
gets home at 11 p.m. after
studying at the Harbert Engi­neering
Building. He said he is
usually there later than that
doing homework and reading
|for classes.
Eastall, 03CE, like many stu­dents,
is under stress, and stress
can be the root of other ail­ments,
according to health
experts.
"I'm seeing more and more
that stress is the number one
cause of health problems for
Americans," said Tina Thomas-ton,
a health educator at Drake
Student Health Center.
In the midst of academic and
social involvement, college stu­dents
are likely to experience
high levels of stress, said Den­nis
Drake, associate director of
counseling at student develop­ment
services.
Drake, who has worked at
Auburn for 20 years, said that
students are more concerned
about grades and finding jobs
than in earlier years, which
adds to the already stressful col­lege
experience.
Among the stress related dis­orders
are chronic fatigue,
insomnia, headaches, muscle
pains, skin disorders, increased
susceptibility to infectious dis­ease,
sexual dysfunctions and
ulcers.
More serious disorders
include high blood pressure,
stroke and heart attack, accord­ing
to information compiled for
the Governor's Council on
Physical Fitness and Sports.
Thomaston said the Health
Education Office at Drake offers
a stressor test to measure the
percentage of stress in a per­son's
everyday life and to spec­ulate
on the chances of illness as
it relates to stress.
More students come into the
Health Education Office during
mid-term and final exams than
at any other time during the
quarter, she said.
Students are also encouraged
to come early in the quarter to
the University's Student Devel­opment
Services, where Drake
and three other professionally
trained counselors help them
with stress and time manage­ment.
Drake said keeping up with
coursework is the best way to
avoid academic crisis and
stress.
"Reading ahead for class is
like having mental velcro," he
said. "It puts the student more
in control."
Topless bar lures students from city's limits
Celine Bufkin
Features Editor
Nine miles (or, 13 minutes)
from Toomer's Corner, nestled
in a bend on Highway 280, lies
Charlie's Tavern - a bright blue
and orange building and the
closest strip joint around.
Tavern owner Alan Jones said
the response to the club, espe­cially
from Auburn students,
has been good.
"All the college students were
riding to Columbus anyway (to
go to strip bars)," he said. "Now
they can come here instead."
Jones said that even in summer
he has a fairly large crowd,
especially on Thursday, Friday
and Saturday nights.
Jones got the license for his
topless dancers on May 27, and
he said the operation has been
running smoothly since then.
"We've had several people
call and voice their opinions,"
he said with a laugh. "Some of
the calls were from people who
didn't approve (of the dancing)
- the rest were from people who
do."
Jone^ said that because the
bar is Outside the city limits and
'Most of the college kids thai come out will
bring a (designated) driver. They're real good
about that' A. T
- Alan Jones
police jurisdiction there are no
city ordinances governing the
place - only state law.
"State laws on places like this
are real tough," Jones said.
"ABC is in here pretty regular­ly,
and the sheriff's department
checks us once a day, maybe
twice," he said. "So far we've
had a good relationship with
them."
According to the Code of
Alabama, topless dancing could
be considered an offense if it
violates the obscenity ordi­nance,
which prohibits obscene
or indecent exposure of the
body, or if it violates the public
lewdness ordinance, which pro­hibits
lewd or obscene conduct.
Jones attests that the bar is
"just topless" - the girls wear
bathing suit bottoms or lingerie.
He said the dancers cannot
make lewd or suggestive ges­tures.
Five girls dance one at a
time on a small dance floor to
music from a jukebox while
patrons watch from their tables.
Many girls responded to the
ads he ran soliciting dancers for
the bar, Jones said. The applica­tions
have slowed during the
summer, but he said he hopes
to get a good group for fall.
Reaction from the community
has been minimal. District
Attorney Ronald Meyers was
unsure of the logistics of Jones's
operating the topless bar here,
and just prior to the Tavern's
opening said that he "knew of
no state law that permits any­one
to go topless anywhere."
He said his office would "take a
look at it" when the bar opened.
Jones said he had no problem
with the district attorney's
office. "They did all the checks
on everything before the sheriff
would approve the license," he
said.
Jones also said he is adamant
about patrons having a valid
picture identification on them at
the bar. He also offers free soft
drinks and no cover charge for
designated drivers. He said he
will even offer rides home to
patrons who have had too much
to drink.
"Most of the college kids that
come out will bring a (designat­ed)
driver," he said. "They're
real good about that."
Jones said that so far he has
had no problems with rowdy
patrons. He does have security
and a bouncer. He said his cus­tomers,
who are predominantly
male college students, are "pret­ty
much a high class group.
"Every week since we've
opened we've done a bachelor
party," Jones added.
Charlie's Tavern used to be "a
little country bar" until Jones
bought it recently. The Opelika
native, who once ran the origi­nal
Tiger Package store in the.
1970's, said the location of'
Charlie's is perfect for a topless-bar
because Auburn and Opeli­ka
both have ordinances against-topless
dancing.
"I was trying to find some-;
thing that would boost business;
out this far," Jones said. "We've;
been happy with the response,;
especially fo^r summer," he said.;
"But we're Still new." :

relocation
remains
unchanged
Christy Kyser
News Editor
A stalemate has been
reached among some mem­bers
of the pharmacy school,
the geology department, the
business school and facilities
over the relocation of several
custodians at the beginning of
summer quarter.
Darwin D. Liverance, direc­tor
of personnel, said, "There
has been no change in the
custodial relocations. Facili­ties
made the changes they
thought were necessary."
Facilities switched Mary
Floyd and Josephine Williams
with custodians from the
pharmacy school and the
geology school in what direc­tor
of facilities Charles Mack
called a "routine decision."
The relocation, however,
sparked some members of the
business school to circulate
two petitions through the col­lege
stating that they found
the work of Williams and
Floyd "very satisfactory and
would like to see them re­instated
to their custodial
duties at Thach Hall."
Kathy Kruse, a secretary in
the economics department,
said, "Despite the petitions
and all the letters we have
sent, we have heard nothing
from anyone, and there has
been no change."
Billy Humphries, superin­tendent
of building services,
Velma Foster, the custodians'
supervisor, and Mack were
all unavailable for comment.
Floyd and Williams also
sent a letter to Humphries
stating, "In all honesty, we
believe the reason for our
sudden transfer is that we
saw Dianne Townsend (assis­tant
to the dean) and Mindy
Bradford (temporary assistant
to Townsend) after hours
with the lights off rifling
through Cathy Wright's
(director of MBA program)
computer files and desk.
...This was brought to Dean
Bellenger and Ms.
Townsend's attention. Shortly
thereafter, we were being
transferred without any
explanation."
Bellenger, however, denied
any knowledge of the alleged
incident prior to the maid's
relocation.
"Apparently, an accusation
has been made that either I or
Ms. Townsend had the maids
transferred because they saw
some undescribed wrong," he
said. "I didn't have anything
to do with asking the maids
to be transferred.
"The only persons that
would know for sure what
Ms. Townsend did or did not
say to maintenance services is
her and maintenance ser­vices,"
Bellenger said.
He said the maids would be
welcomed back, but that
would have to be a decision
made by facilities.
Bellenger also said that
Townsend had every right to
enter the office at any time as
well as Bradford "if she was
with Ms. Townsend, who is
her boss."
Townsend denied comment
stating she found "it (com­menting)
inappropriate."
"We (the College of Busi­ness)
will be happy to
address any accusations
made as long as the people
will come forward and make
the accusation publicly, and
we'll try to deal with them,"
Bellenger said.
"Say what it is that Ms.
Townsend did wrong, and
we'll deal with i t j ,

tudents who fail to pre-register will now pay $50 fee
Siristy Kyser
Jgws Editor
p; Students who fail to pre-regis-for
classes will soon be pay-
J a $50 late fee beginning fall
aarter, according to Assistant
Jursar James R. Yerkey.
"Pre-registration has always
• been a requirement. However,
aere has never been a penalty
jr failing to do so," Yerkey
lid. "Recently, the number of
students not pre-registering has
been increasing. As a conse­quence,
it has not been equi­table
for students who do get
billed early."
Yerkey said that students who
don't pre-register get billed as
late as mid-quarter with their
first late fee being at the end of
the quarter.
"Students who do pre-register
have already been assessed two
late fees (in an amount depen­dent
on their bill) by this time,"
Yerkey said.
"The $50 fee is merely an
attempt to eliminate the
inequity," he said.
Yerkey added that those who
wait until after final registration
to pick-up their entire schedule
must pay the $50 plus their
entire fee bill at that time. This
does not count for students
merely adjusting their schedule.
"Pre-registration is mostly
important for the students. It
helps the dean's office to divide
classes into sections by knowing
in advance how many students
are signed up," he said.
The fee is posted in the stu­dent
handbook, as well as in the
registrar's listing of quarter
courses.
The board of trustees
approved the fee in an "attempt
to encourage those who wait
two and a half months to pay
their bills to simply do what
they are supposed to do,"
Yerkey said.

SGA holds petition drive, looks into legal service for students
John W. Atkinson
Staff Writer
In the wake of a warning
from President James E. Martin
about proposed higher educa­tion
cuts by the legislature, the
SGA held a petition drive to
voice its displeasure to state
officials.
The drive, held July 1 on the
Haley Center Concourse, gener­ated
some 700 signatures, SGA
Administrative Vice President
Michael Puffe said.
"We were extremely happy
(with the turnout). We had set a
goal for 500 signatures and got
700 in just the eight to nine hour
period," Puffe said.
The petition will be sent to the
Alabama lieutenant governor,
as well as to the President Pro-
Tempore of the Senate, the head
of the finance and taxation com­mittee
and state-wide media
outlets, Puffe said.
The petition details how the
proposed House education bud­get
would adversely affect the
University. The big difference is
the change from the traditional
2-1 split of funding between
kindergarten through 12th
grade and higher education to a
ratio unfavorable to state col­leges
and universities.
The petition further asks for
the restoration of the 2-1 fund­ing
and for the legislature to use
the recommended formula of
the Alabama Commission on
Higher Education (ACHE) to
distribute future monies.
The petition was among sev­eral
topics discussed during the
July 2 meeting of the SGA.
Another topic discussed was
a promise made by SGA Presi­dent
Jon Waggoner during his
campaign.
The promise is the implemen­tation
of a service on campus to
assist students with legal prob­lems.
The program, whose pro­posal
has been passed on to
University administration for
approval, would allow students
to come to the SGA office for a
15 minute session to discuss
their problem(s) with an attor­ney,
Puffe said.
"Auburn is one of only very
few schools in the nation not to
offer legal services," Waggoner
said.
Waggoner said ideal cases
would include minor property
damage, traffic citations and
tenant-landlords disputes,
among others.

'Sol of Auburn' races to 3rd place finish
Tonya Ponds
Staff Writer
With the increased concern
for the environment, the search
for alternative energy sources
has produced a collaboration
between environmentalists, the
automotive industry and the
. science and engineering com­munity.
• Auburn University's solar
powered car, the 'Sol of
Auburn', was a contribution to
these efforts and has recently
competed in its second race, the
-California Clean Air Race, or
CalCAR.
CalCAR, an event designed to
highlight the use of solar and
electric power as an alternative
- to gasoline, was a part of Cali­fornia
Solar Week 1991, which
: sought to demonstrate the
; advantages of solar power.
The $250,000 car was well
I received by onlookers and fel­low
opponents during the 6-day
Irace, said the Sol team leader,
File
Auburn's solar powered car, 'Sol of Auburn,' recently
competed in the California Clean Air Race June 18-23.
Michael Haught, 04ME.
"Everyone liked the design,
and other racers were amazed
how a car that was less sophisti­cated
in technology than theirs
could keep up with them," he
said.
The June 18-23 race featured
six other solar cars as well as
Auburn's, stretching from Cali­fornia
State University in Sacra­mento
to the California Muse­um
of Science and Industry in
Los Angeles.
Even though Haught drove
only 15-20 miles during the
race, he wasn't extremely satis­fied
with his driving. Neverthe­less,
he was pleased with the
driving conditions and the solar
car's overall performance.

geous. The car was running as
well as it could, and we did
well compared to what we had
to go up against. I was really
happy," Haught said.
"While I was driving, I was
driving straight up hill for (a)
whole 18 miles, and I was kinda
discouraged because we lost a
lot of battery power.
The 'Sol of Auburn' won $500
for finishing third and an addi­tional
$500 for winning first
prize in the safety division
Sushil Bhavnani, a mechanical
engineering professor and fac­ulty
adviser for the University
team, doesn't think there will be
a solar car in the forseeable
future, but a combination of
solar/electric cars.
"There is not enough (solar)
power. It's very diluted because
there're one horsepower cars,"
Bhavnani said.
Last summer, the 'Sol of
Auburn' competed in its first
race, the GM Sunrayce USA,
from Florida to Michigan where
it finished 15th in a field of 32.

Residents
oppose
zoning
The Auburn City Council
voted on the zoning on Stage
Road during its Tuesday
'rneeting and gave the final
public hearing on the con­struction
of single-family
housing in the Cary Woods
area.
The Council voted unani­mously
to change the Stage
Road area to a development
district zone after reaching a
'compromise with C. H.
McGehee, who is selling the
; property.
The change will allow for
construction of apartments on
the property by McGehee.
- Residents in the Stage Road
subdivisions had expressed
their opposition to their pro­posal
at a previous meeting.
' Phillip Dunlap, economic
development director for the
city of Auburn, gave the third
public hearing on the con­struction
of public, single-
-family housing in northwest
Auburn, near the Cary
.Woods area.
"No speculative housing of
this type is being built in
Auburn," Dunlap said. He
said that no housing of this
type has ever been construct-
'ed in the city.
* Dunlap said the housing is
aimed at families whose aver­age
income did not top
$16,300 a year.
Construction of the public
housing would make more
than $870,000 of low-income
housing available in the city
of Auburn, Dunlap said.

City Council acknowledges private club requirements
Christa Turner
Assistant News Editor
Over the past several months,
rumors of the War Eagle Supper
Club closing have spread
through the Auburn communi­ty-
However, Chris Goulart,
owner of the Supper Club, said
the club is in compliance with
state laws relating to private
club license requirements.
"Our records were audited,
and everything is fine. As far as
we're concerned, it's all over
with," Goulart said.
Mayor Jan Dempsey said the

take action with the Supper
Club.
"The Supper Club has a legiti­mate
license," Dempsey said.
The debate over the Supper
Club began when Cappy's
applied for a similar license and
was denied one.
Robert Gastaldo, council
member and professor in geolo­gy,
said, "The argument (in the
council) was, if the council
were to grant a private liquor
license to such an establish­ment,
then it would open the
floodgates to making many
establishments of similar char­acter."
The private club license
allows private clubs to have
longer hours and also to sell
alcohol on Sundays.
Council members were con­cerned
that the Supper Club
was not a true private club,
Gastaldo said.
The city has looked into the
possibility of clarifying the
ordinance concerning private
clubs, Dempsey said.

Paying the piper
The saga of the Spades hazing incident will con­tinue,
it seems, despite a $20,000 settlement
against former members of that group who
unintentionally involved a local family in its bizarre haz­ing
ritual gone awry.
City police had jurisdiction in this case and chose
to turn it over to the University which sent it barrelling
through the Student Disciplinary Committee. Privacy laws
prohibit University officials from disclosing action taken
against the individuals involved, but the SGA-sponsored
Organizations Committee, headed by Beth Martin, placed
the honorary on a two-quarter probation pending a
review of the group in the fall.
That the members involved in the incident were
not prosecuted to the full extent of the law is disturbing
enough; that they were not criminally prosecuted at all is
an atrocious injustice to Auburn and the state of Alabama
which makes its hazing law clear:
"Any person who participates in the hazing of
another, or any organization associated with a school, col­lege,
university, or other educational institution in this
state which knowingly permits hazing to be conducted by
its members or by others subject to its direction or control,
shall forfeit any entitlement to public funds, scholarships,
or awards which are enjoyed by him or by it and shall be
deprived of any sanction or approval granted by the
school, college, university, or other educational institu­tion."
Martin's action seemed light as well, but Martin
said litigation was pending against former Spades the
committee interviewed, so the penalty was based on little
or no hard evidence against the group. But with more and
more facts about the case being revealed these days, Mar­tin
said she will seek a harsher penalty, which could result
in the revocation of the group's charter.
The fear of Spades influence, however, lies heavy
on Martin's mind these days: Student Senate must
approve recommendations by Martin's committee con­cerning
charters. Knowing of the number of current
Spades that work directly and otherwise with that group,
hers is a reasonable fear.
'The thing that I'm really worried about is that
those people have such influence on the senators," Martin
said. "I hate to speculate, but I hope my board will take a
stiffer penalty."
With Auburn's reputation at stake, we can only
concur.
Good News...
Kudos to all involved with the 'Sol of Auburn,'
which won $500 for finishing third and an
additional $500 for winning first prize in the
safety division of California's Clean Air Race. Yourjpride
shows.
Orientation fulfills pep rally prophecy
SGA organized freshman ori­entation
activities at Auburn
degrade the last vestiges of aca­demic
integrity at the Universi­ty-
After I completed a speech,
which received less-than-rave
reviews around admissions
office circles, promoting The
Plainsman to the the summer's
first orientation group of 350
students, I realized the program
did not concern itself with the
realities of college living in the
1990s.
The program instead served
strictly as a modem for a bunch
of feel-good talks about football
and the other fun and games for
which we are supposedly to
have chosen Auburn.
Even worse was having to
watch the rapid disintegration
of the already small amount of
intellectual pursuits presented
at the convocation.
Beth
Lander
Editor
The antics that recently made
Auburn national news was per­ceived
by some as "offensive"
under the circumstances and
therefore not a fitting topic. Silly
me, I had the impression that
the jewel in the Plainsman's
award-winning crown was its
ability to report events which
directly affect the lives of
Auburn students. I was quickly
re-educated as to orientation
protocol.
With my new-found knowl­edge
and a summer full of ori­entation
programs to look for­ward
to, I did what any self-respecting
journalist would -
delegated. With the help of my
kind assistant, a former Plains­man
editor, the paper now had a
winner of a speech.
Once again, convocation orga­nizers
approached me, saying
speaking times had to be cut.
The Plainsman, the Glom and
WEGL were to be clumped into
one three minute speech, pre­sented
by a Communications
Board representative.
Ha ha, I laughed. That is until
I realized they were serious.
Why is it these intellectually
rooted pursuits were viewed as
expendable? Although that may
not have been the intention of
the SGA or the admissions
office, the proposed change suc­ceeded
in pushing the program
further into pep rally purgatory.
I believe several factors con­tributed
to the ultimate "orien­tation
from hell experience."
One being a serious communi­cation
breakdown among con­vocation
organizers.
There have been three pro­grams
this summer and three
separate speeches had to be
written for each occasion. The
Plainsman staff serves students
much better when allowed to «
do its job of producing a news­paper,
not by wasting time in
unappreciated ventures.
Had I been a parent in the
audience, I would have to ques­tion
whether I wanted my
child's education spent at a
school that eats, lives, breathes
and reveres athletics.
Freshman convocations are
not usually on the top of my
things to do list, but seeing this
University represented from a
locker room perspective upsets
me and should you. Organizers
need to get their acts together
and realize the implications of
their actions. Auburn needs to
look its best at the convocations,
not its worst.
Conservative trends eat away freedoms
During the Vietnam era, the
words "America - love it or
leave it" used to resonate like
thunder in the political storm
this country was enduring.
I'm leaving.
I'll give you three simple rea­sons:
the antics of the govern­ment,
the loss of personal free­dom,
and my own greed.
We were told in our manda­tory
high school civics and gov­ernment
classes the majority
ruled this nation; one man's
vote could affect the political
course of the country.
I'll buy that last part, any­way.
The political climate in this
country has been swinging
more and more to the conserva­tive.
Trends like this are to be
expected, and even cherished.
Laws and their interpretation
derived from the input of both
sides of the political fence. This
is not only helpful to growth,
but necessary.
I will admit I have not been
happy with the current trends
in this nation. Issues such as
mandatory school prayer, abor­tion,
free speech, free press and
gun control tend to eat away at
me.
As your garden-variety liber­tarian,
I'm opposed to needless
laws, and I am a true believer
in the concept of laissez-faire.
I suppose this makes me a
radical.
As I understand it, that's
what freedom is all about; I will
fight to protect that ideal.
But that no longer means
fighting for this country.
We have come to a point in
our politicking where the
appointment of one man, and

the views of the six people
appointed to that same organi­zation,
are deciding too much.
The next appointment to the
Supreme Court will determine
more than who replaces Thur-good
Marshall. It also has the
potential to set the moral cli­mate
in this nation.
I doubt that is what Thomas
Jefferson had in mind.
The Court can no longer be
trusted. The Court was estab­lished
in order to interpret
existing legislation, not to re­interpret
it repeatedly with pre­determined
goals in mind.
A Supreme Court truly
checked by the Constitution is a
wonderful idea.
A Supreme Court which is
staffed for lifetime terms and
appointed under the sole direc­tion
of one man who is picked
by an electoral college on the
basis of its political viewpoints
and is ratified by a politically
pressured Senate scares me
spitless (remember, you didn't
vote for him. You told the elec­toral
college how you wanted
them to vote, which they may
or may not have honored. Ask
Richard Nixon).
What I have is a fear that I
live in a country that no longer
pays attention to the rule of the
law, but rather to the rules of
men. (Admittedly, Dr. Clifton
Perry, associate professor of
philosophy here at Auburn,
helped me phrase that.)
Cliff said, "Tomorrow your
favorite positions could change.
If you think you are favored
today, with a change in the
court your positions could fall
by the wayside."
I admit I made my decision
to leave this great nation some
time ago. Robert A. Heinlein,
award-winning science fiction
author, advised us years ago
"that when a place gets crowd­ed
enough to require IDs, social
collapse is not far away. It is
time to go elsewhere."
Renewed your driver's
license lately? Remember your
social security number?
Checked your draft card?
The last years of my colle­giate
career have been spent
determining where I would go.
Opportunities present them­selves
world-wide. Tax-free,
six-digit salaries are enticing.
Seems to me it might be time
to get the hell outta Dodge.
Death typifies unprecedented, exemplary canon
Michael Landon was cool. He
had cool hair; he had a cool
career; and he had a cool death.
Of course, I am not saying it is
cool that he died, nor am I say­ing
that death from cancer is
fashionable or preferred.
But Landon set an unprece­dented
standard for other stars
and the public to follow.
He daringly discontinued
chemotherapy to subject him­self
to questionable alternative
testing which would fulfill the
public's need for scientific
knowledge and would also give
him the not-so-likely chance of
recovery or prolonged life span.
Specifically, his choice was
targeted toward facilitating the
need for previously unobtained
results of untested cancer
research methods and cures on
human subjects.
Landon ignored doctors' pre­dictions
of his recovery from
Alyson
Linde
Copy Editor
encephalitis in 1974, and he suc­cessfully
returned to work a
week later, instead of the esti­mated
six months.
With his previous success in
mind, he decided he would take
advantage of his options. He
told Life, "I'm going to beat this
cancer or die trying. And how
the hell do I know I can't? Yes,
the odds are bad, but I've
fought bad odds before."
Yes, Michael Landon did fight
a lot of odds in his life.
The odds were that he would
not successfully focus the
majority of his acting and pro­ducing
career in offering »fhree
reputable, rerun-worthy and
family-oriented TV series,
Bonanza, Little House on the
Prairie and Highway to Heaven.
Few people have illustrated
an equal desire to offer the
American public with such a list
of endearing family shows.
Before he was diagnosed for
adenocarcinoma, which is an
almost unfailingly fatal condi­tion
in which an inoperable can­cer
of the pancreas spreads to
the liver, Landon was getting
ready to star in yet another fam­ily
show called, US.
If one of Landon's shows
were on, you could be sure
mom and dad would never ask
you to turn off the TV or to
change the channel.
Mom and dad liked the
shows because they reflected
the proper familial atmosphere
in which parents are amused by
their children's antics, yqf retain
the necessary amount of disci­plinarian
authority in the home.
Kids of all ages enjoy watch­ing
Little House on the Prairie
reruns, perhaps because of all
the adventurous mischief Laura
Ingalls and her friends created.
Maybe we love Landon's
shows because we see the mer­its
of the Laura Ingalls-Wilder
lifestyle; maybe we somehow
retain nostalgic revelations in
the hopes that we will translate
a hint of that life into ours, how­ever
realistic it may seem for
today's families.
Landon's reflects his determi­nation
to present to the public a
positive family life through his
career choices, his personal
goals and his unwillingness to
give up without a fight.
Fond memories are created by
watching him in action in any of
his series. Fortunately, they,
will be immortalized in syndii
cation heaven.

Letters The Auburn Plainsman
Student leaders miss big picture Glance back
What's done is done.
Our state legislature has
revamped education funding
presumably with Robin Hood
In mind, as some of the money
that would normally go to high­er
education was shifted to K-
12. Since both border on pover­ty,
it wasn't exactly taking from
the rich to give to the poor, but
it makes for a good story just
the same.
Simultaneously we heard the
cries of our student and admin­istrative
leaders who planted
themselves in Montgomery to
voice concern for prospective
tuition hikes that would result
from such a transfer of funding.
To their credit, student lead­ers
did organize a petition and
letter writing campaign begging
our state leaders to reconsider
the funding shift, but by the
time their pleas reached Mont­gomery,
the votes had been
cast.
We praised their efforts as
Better Late Than Never, then
said nothing at all as it became
increasingly clear that we had
been duped.
Ask those leaders today what
else they have planned for the
fight for funding in the coming
year. They will tell you they
have finished waging this war,
tucking away the newspaper
clip or two they've saved to
mark their roles in this political
folly. \
We shouldn't wonder why
nothing seems to get done in

Alabama's state government.
The lack of representation in the
name of higher education can­not
be helped, it seems, espe­cially
in this transitory world of
college politics, not to mention
the void that will result from
the state's administrative exo­dus
in the coming year.
We should be thankful for
student leaders who look out
for our interests at all, but when
the scope of their dedication
fails to encompass the whole
picture, we can only believe it
was their own political interests
that were served.
SGA presidents admitted that
K-12 did need additional
money, but none could pinpoint
- if not from higher education -
any firm source of funding to
make up for the shortfall at that
level.
"We don't want more money.
We just want to maintain that
balance between K-12 and high­er
education," said SGA Presi­dent
Jon Waggoner, a Tucker,
Ga., native who has never set
foot in a needy K-12 school in
Alabama.
But without more money,
many K-12 schools will not sur­vive
if that traditional split is to
American pride diminishes
Citizens fail to fight for human rights
Editor, The Plainsman:
Looking toward the future, I
am searching for a place to set
down my roots and call home.
A place where cool heads pre­vail
and decisions are not based
upon emotions or dogma but
upon truths. I don't know if I
can find that place in the United
States anymore.
Never did the thought of not
living out my life in America
' take on a serious nature. We
were always the top - the quali­ty
of life was the best to be
found on Earth, but my deci­sions
are no longer based on
economics. For that matter, the
United States is not on top any
longer. My decisions are based
on the truth which lies behind
an action and protecting the
means to find these truths.
Events of recent days have
begun to scare me, but I have a
feeling that these conditions
have been arising for some
time. As a teenager, I was
caught up in the newfound
pride in America that the Rea­gan's
issued in.
I was young, a teenage repub­lican
drawn in by the excite­ment,
and without the ability of
foresight to see the conse­quences
of the subtle changes
by the new government.
Now that the protection of
rights has become important to
living out my life, I realize how
much is being taken away and
how willingly people are relin­quishing
these rights.
All issues of rights may not be
relevant to everyone, such as
abortion, but you cannot force
your morals and religious
beliefs on all people.
Our founding fathers had
insight and guarded against this
threat by separating forever the
government and religion.
People are coming danger­ously
close to combining these
two and are not aware of the
consequences.
I love my country, but I will
not be denied my rights as a
human being.
I am a human first and an
American second. I have not
given up on my country, but
sometimes I feel people have
stopped listening.

be maintained. Without more
money, the new split could
mean another $2.1 million
slashed from Auburn's already
prorated state, Martin estimat­ed.
"Property taxes" seemed the
most popular reply to the if-money-
doesn't-grow-on-trees-where-
do-you-suppose-it-should-
come-from question, but
student leaders faltered when
asked how they proposed to get
folks statewide to vote to up
their ad valorem taxes.
Despite that Alabama's prop­erty
taxes rank among the low­est
in the nation, too many resi­dents
year after year refuse to
adequately support K-12 at the
local level. No news flash there.
Of course, tuition in Alaba­ma's
state schools is also among
the lowest in the nation. While
college students should not bear
the brunt of the cost of K-12, the
attitudes of taxpayers at both
levels should be altered when
our children are being crammed
into portables, using inadequate
teaching supplies and facing
long treks home because our
school systems cannot afford
buses to safely transport them.
But what's done is done, our
leaders say, shaking their
solemn heads as they walk
away from the Capitol, all the
while rubbing their fingers
clean of the newsprint that will
make it all OK in their political
tomorrows.
10 years ago, 1981: The new WEGL station manager invited wrath by revising the programming
format to facilitate more Top 40 music.
15 years ago, 1976: As the deadline for voting in Auburn city elections approached, the Lee
County Board of Registrars refused to set up registry stations on campus to accommodate students
who were unable to visit the board's Opelika office.
20 years ago, 1971: The voting age was lowered to 18. President Nixon said America's youth
was becoming absorbed in "...drugs, defeatism, negativism and alienation." Legendary musician
Louis Armstrong died at 71.
Quote of the week
"Reading ahead for class is like having mental velcro. It puts the student more in control,"
said Dennis Drake, associate director of counseling at student development services, about stress
reduction techniques.
Argument implies sinners should suffer;
Editor, The Plainsman:
Ms. Gordon's diatribe against
abortion is a good example of
the type of unsubstantiated
"facts" (albeit less inflammatory
than most) often presented by
pro-life advocates.
On what does she base the
assertion that limiting the avail­ability
of abortion will promote
more responsible sexual behav­ior?
For almost a decade we have
been faced with AIDS, a fatal
STD, and there is little sound
evidence suggesting that people,
particularly heterosexuals, have
changed their sexual behavior,
even though their lives may be
at stake.
Second, a reversal of Roe vs.
Wade will almost certainly
impact poor women more than
the economically privileged. The
abortions are available, while
poor women will be more likely
to seek illegal abortions.
Many poor women canno.
afford abortions now thanks to
the tightening of government
funding for health care, not to
mention pro-life efforts to make
low-cost abortions increasingly
difficult to obtain.
Finally, Ms. Gordon is guilty
of equating correlation with cau­sation
when she states that an
increase in unwanted pregnan­cies
is due to the availability of
abortion. The increasing rate of
unwanted pregnancy is the
result of the complex interplay
of factors.
While many pro-life advocates
claim that they are sensitive to
women's rights, I don't hear Ms.
Gordon or many others outlin­ing
plans to promote education
and availability of contracep-*
fives, or to address the disgrace­ful
lack of affordable health care,'
especially for poor women and
their children.
I also don't hear any serious'
proposals for helping women, so
many of whom are single par!
ents, to raise and provide for the
unwanted children they will be
forced to bear.
Behind the crusade to suppos-i
edly protect the sanctity of life, I
hear the moralistic implication
that most women faced with
unwanted pregnancies have
sinned and deserve to suffer.
Furthermore, the passionate
proclamations of concern for
unborn children diminish con-1
siderably in volume once those
children leave the womb.

Failing students wrongfully pass blame to GTAs
It's one thing to complain to friends and family. It's quite another to publish your
grievance tjo 19,500 rezders. Writ<*'a letter to The Plainsman, B*-100 Foy Union Bldg.
Editor, The Plainsman:
I expected, this time, a reason­able,
unbiased report on foreign
GTAs that carefully analyzed
both positive and negative
aspects of teaching by interna­tional
GTAs in Auburn. Instead,
the report "Language barriers
inhibit studies," June 27, Plains­man,
by Mike Shands, Sports
Editor, is a distorted, prejudiced,
inaccurate piece of destructive,
myopic journalism.
At the outset, what relevance
does the accompanying photo­graph
of international GTAs
have with the article? We were
relaxing by ...seriously studying
mathematics, not gossiping or
gadding about or posing for
photographs.
Sure, foreign GTAs have
accents^nd, yes, students have
trouble understanding us. I
sympathize with those who
drop a class of a foreign GTA
and with those who have low
grades. But how many of those
who dropped have enjoyed
doing mathematics? How many
of those who dropped during
the mid-quarter attended the
class daily?
How many of those who
received low grades worked sin­cerely
and diligently on home­work
problems? How many of
those who quibble about the
accent of a foreign GTA sincere­ly
and honestly forced them­selves
to understand the
mechanics of problem-solving?
Did they ever consider asking
for help from their instructor?
Do they expect the GTAs to
spoon-feed mathematics? Final­ly,
do students drop the class of
only foreign GTAs?
Sure, I awarded low grades
and even failed a few students
but only because they could not
make a better or passing grade
even in the make-up exam.
Those who were in the class
until the very end, who honestly
and diligently worked on every
homework problem and did
their best in every class or make­up
test and the final exam were
awarded better grades only
because they deserved those
grades.
Did Mike Shands try to get;a
response from one of these bet­ter
students? Did he make any
inquiries with the department
heads? Did he contact any of. the
foreign GTAs? Did he talk tome
or Kuo-Chuan Yin before send­ing
his report for printing?
Quite ob^ously not. t,

said.
Marsh had his own idea
about the influence the event
had on the pool's approval.
"The Olympics gave more of
an acute awareness of the pub­lic
relations and monetary gains
to be made," Marsh said.
Marsh, Martin and White
agreed that having foreign
countries use the complex could
only benefit the students and
the community.
Martin said, "We would hope
we could get some international
exposure and some economic
benefits for the students. We
might even recruit some foreign
students.
White cited other benefits
including that the competitors
"would stay in our dorms, eat
in our dining halls and there
will be fees for the facilities they
use."
For Marsh, the benefits aren't
as much monetary as they are

Many ancient people used to
fear an eclipse. As Charlotte
Ward, associate professor of
physics, said, "Wouldn't you
be scared if the sun suddenly
disappeared for no apparent
reason?"
Many ancient societies wor­shiped
the sun and found it to
be extremely valuable to their
way of life, she said.
Early Chinese cultures
thought the dragon ate the
sun, Ward said.
They thought if they made
enough noise the dragon
would give back the sun, so
they would ring the temple
bells, she said.
Experts warn that viewing
the eclipse without the proper
equipment can be damaging.
Eclipses may be observed,
and Gardner suggests several
techniques which are safe to
use.
The two safest techniques to
observe an eclipse is through
pin-hole projection and
through several layers of high­ly
exposed black and white
film, he said.
Gardner also suggests No.

Marsh, White, and Martin fur­ther
agree that the use of the

of the students to use the

pool for university classes.
"We can be running classes
and having open swims during
athletic training. There will be

White said students will be
able to use the pool "100 per­cent

Ratliff explains that, for
instance, "The music director
would come in and teach
about the music rotation."
Mike Smelley, a radio pro­ductions
instructor at Auburn,
sat in on the new announcers
class for the first time last
spring quarter. He wanted to
see how similar his class,
Radio Production Techniques,
was to the WEGL class.
Smelley said the aspect of
the WEGL class he considers
most important is that stu­dents
must sit in the control
room and monitor disc jockeys
for a total of eight hours over
the quarter. This lets the stu­dents
ask questions and
observe the announcers.
He said he also believes that
requiring students to work on
a particular staff is good for
experiences behind the scenes
of a radio station.
Smelley said he feels that his
class should be taken if a stu­dent
is interested in radio pro­ductions
as a future occupa­tion,
but WEGL's class is the
best class to take if a student
wants to become a radio
announcer.

THE AUBURN PLAINSMAN
July 11,1991
Dinner theatre offers
summer alternatives
Kate Greene
•Staff writer
Once again the Auburn the­atre
department will offer
Summerstage '91. This year's
presentations include The Star
Spangled Girl, Harvey and The
Mousetrap during the last two
weekends in July and the first
weekend in August.
The plays will be presented
as dinner theatre and in an
arena staging, two innovations
to the Auburn stage.
"This is part of the festive
occasion of the summer," said
Ralph Miller, associate theatre
professor.
Dinners will be served at the
hill restaurant in Terrell Cafe­teria
before each play.
Special menus have been
prepared for each show and a
Sunday brunch will be offered
for the matinees, said Cleve­land
Harrison, head of the the­atre
department.
The plays will be performed
in an arena setting on the
Telfair Peet stage. The audi­ence
will surround the actors
as they perform.
"It will offer intimate space
and give the performers a new
theatrical style and work expe­rience,"
Miller said.
A dinner theatre format was
attempted in 1984, but wasn't
a success, Harrison said.
He said the idea of eating at
the hill and walking across the
street to the theatre "might be
more interesting."
The three plays were chosen
for their diversity and because
they are family oriented, he
said.
Star Spangled Girl was cho­sen
for its small cast, which is
the best way for the series to
kick off, Harrison said.
It is a contemporary comedy
by Neil Simon which high­lights
the difficulties two men
dealing with the All-American
female must face when they
put out a 1960's protest maga­zine.
Will York, director of actor
training and an Alabama
Shakespeare Festival veteran,
will direct the play which will
run July 18-20 at 8 p.m. and
July 21 at 2 p.m.
Harrison said, Harvey is a
classic favorite comedy which
involves the adventures of
Elwood P. Dowd and an invis­ible
giant white rabbit named
Harvey.
The play will run July 25- 27
at 8 p.m. and July 28 at 2 p.m.
It is directed by Ralph Miller.
Agatha Christie's The Mouse­trap
is a murder mystery con­cerning
two murders in a
manor house. The play has
been running in London for 39
years straight, Harrison said.
York said, "This has the
same levity and lightness of a
summer ice cream social."
Tickets cost $17 for one play
and meal and $48 for all three
plays and meals.
Only 120 seats are available
for each play and dinner, and
reservations are required.
Reservations may be made
be calling the box office at 844-
4154.
Harrison, top, Miller and York help produce and
direct Auburn's summer dinner theatre shows.

Lava Love framed by critical success
Stephen Lohr
Staff Writer
High energy, trashy, psychedelic,
pop music.
Lava Love is a band that, through
the combination of its five distinctive
musicians with various backgrounds
and tastes, takes its diversity and
merges it into a sound that feels fun.
By fusing pop, rock and everything
in between, the musicians create an
atmosphere of playfulness with an
edge.
The band, begun in 1988, is led by
singer Esta Hill. Her stage
performance, a raucous display of
erratic gyrations and exciting dance
extenuated by an expressive voice,
drives the band into its characteristic
inspired silliness.
Keyboardist Dianna "Cookie"
Brindle, the other female element,
combines with Hill to articulate the
pop influence.
Paul Bracken, bassist, and Drew
Cavins on guitar, mix their rock 'n' roll
' ...The tension that dwells between pop and rock is
good. It makes a good band. There is a tug of war
and I think it produces better music'

influences into the group, and
drummer Clay Richardson, formerly
of Fetchin Bones, rounds out the
quintet.
Hill said, "...The tension that dwells
between pop and rock is good. It
makes a good band. There is a tug of
war and I think it produces better
music."
Differences aside, this band has a
sense of humor. With silly lyrics such
as these lines from the song
"Caveman," "Think of the fun we
could of had/When girls were girls
and men smelled bad/When only
monkeys used to swing/We loved to
do that Piltdown thing," Lava Love
incorporates a grotesquely comic view
of life into its music.
When asked to describe the worst
gig they remember, Cookie
explained, "One time we were in
Norfolk, Va. It's the strangest
thing; the stage is near the
bathroom, and I thought I smelled
this strange odor... (laughter from
the entire band).
"So the next day we stayed with
. some friends who were at the club
that night, and they told us about
this fight that had occurred while
we were playing. This guy came

Japanese internment proves detrimental to America
The internment of Japanese-
Americans during World War II
stands out as a blight on what
has been a shining example of
tolerance and freedom in our
country.
After the attack on Pearl Har­bor,
America went through an
unprecedented period of racial
animosity toward Japanese-
Americans.
While declaring war upon the
Empire of the Rising Sun, some­one
also chose to lash out at
those Americans of Japanese
ancestry by "relocating" or
"interning" them in camps
away from the sensitive Pacific
coastline.
Japanese-Americans with as
little as one-sixteenth of
Japanese blood in them were to
be "relocated." More than two-
Matthew P.
Moore
etc. Editor
thirds of them were born Nisei,
or born in the United States.
The other one-third were Issei,
legally admitted to the United
States. It was not until 1952 that
Issei could become citizens.
Feb. 13,1942, a letter to Presi­dent
Franklin Delano Roosevelt
was sent from the Pacific Coast
Congressional Delegation
regarding the subject of
Japanese-Americans living on
the Pacific Coast.
The contents of the letter
accused Japanese-Americans of
engaging in espionage and dis­loyal
conduct, and it recom­mended
the evacuation of all
Japanese-Americans from
"strategic areas" of the coast.
Coincidentally, Roosevelt had
already received a 21-page
secret investigative report from
the State Department written by
Curtis B. Munson.
In his letter, Munson stated
that "a remarkable even
extraordinary degree of loyalty
among this generally suspect
ethnic group."
At the same time, J. Edgar
Hoover, then Director of the
Federal Bureau of Investigation
sent a six-page secret memo to
the Attorney General Francis
Biddle that read: "Every com­plaint
(qf espionage and disloy­al
conduct) has been investigat­ed
but in no case has any infor­mation
been obtained which
. could substantiate the allega­tions."
Munson and Hoover could
smell innocence, sincerity and
loyalty a mile away.
On Feb. 19, 1942, Roosevelt
signed Executive Order 9066,
effectively damning Japanese-
Americans to Yankee concentra­tion
camps. This order allowed
for the expulsion of Japanese-
Americans.
March 18, 1942, Roosevelt's
Executive Order 9102 created a
War Relocation Authority,
which oversaw the planned and
orderly evacuation and reloca­tion
persons from designated
"military areas."
During the months of April
and May 1942, assembly centers
were set up and Japanese-
Americans were given only six
days to sell their earthly posses­sions.
They were allowed to
carry only 70 pounds of person­al
belongings.
The camps were built in Cali­fornia,
Wyoming, Idaho, Utah,
Colorado, Arizona and
Arkansas.
More than 100,000 people
were evacuated to dismal living
conditions, dust, heat and
hatred.
It was not until Nov. 2, 1945,
that the last of the camps closed,
and brought an end to the ugly
racism that had reared its head.
There can be no excuse for
this occurrence. It is appalling
and it is unforgivable.
Remember. Never forget.

Attention to musicality, stylistics
sustains blues-pop combination
Pat Riley
Staff Writer
•BGHM
b a a ttwr
• . : •
Peter Frohwein/Staff
Aiis traces his influences to musicians who keep the faith
vhile attempting variations on conventional musical idioms.
Pop blues is an oxymoron in
today's world of college music.
Too many bands in this scene
rely on progressive pop covers
and flashy hairdos instead of
honest musicianship to sell their
shows.
The members of Zig and the
Zigtones stand out in this
world, not because they are the
prettiest, loudest or best
dressed, but because they treat
their music as art, not as a com­modity.
"The music we play has been
around for quite a while," said
Ziggy Luis, the band's front
man. "That's not to say we only
play old music, but the type of
blues and rock we play has
stood the test of time."
What saves the Zigtones from
musical pomposity is the suc­cinct
musicianship within the
group. Bassist Todd Todd and
drummer Eddie Ayers pack a
one-two punch that punctuates
Luis' voice as he flavors each
song with the guitar riffs of a
blues veteran.
Luis credits his musical style
and taste to the influences he
experienced at the start of his
career.
"I grew up listening to San-tana
like crazy," Luis said.
"Later on I started listening to
Clapton and other blues-influ­enced
artists."
Over the years, rock music
has become the son of the blues,
and many of its artists seem less
concerned about strong perfor­mances
or meaningful lyrics
than with creating big hairdos.
"I would call us an alternative
band, but people would take
that the wrong way," Luis said.
"They wouldn't understand
without hearing us that our
sound is different than most
college area bands.
"We're simply an alternative
to alternative bands."
Luis, the 31-year-old singer-guitarist,
has quite an impres­sive
past with opening perfor­mances.
He has opened for acts such
as Bob Marley, the Fabulous
Thunderbirds, the Black Crowes
and Stevie Ray Vaughan.
Some of Todd's past sessions
have been with Anita Ward,
Rick James and Anita Baker.
He said, "This is only my sec­ond
week with the band, but we
get along great. It's good to be
with other fine musicians. You
could say we're like a family."
Although the members of the
Zigtones are tour veterans, it is
still too early to judge whether
the group will knock down any
borders between blues and rock
here in the heart of the South.
Luis picks the Black Crowes
as one of his favorite bands.
"I can't say that they're an
influence to me, but they're
Peter Frohwein/Staff
Luis and Todd expropriate elements of old music to invent
the new and, in the balance, cop quite a thematic groove.
about the only new band that I
like at all these days."
Luis spent the early part of
his musical career in Tampa,
Fla., with the band 4 In Legion.
After about six years with the
group, he left to pursue a life of
acoustic performances.
"All the time I was playing
alone, my guitar collection went
from about 100 guitars down to
20. I'm not even sure where
they all went."
Several years of this type of
work led him to Auburn where
he originally formed the Zig­tones
as a temporary band to
play at the War Eagle Supper
Club.
Budweiser called up and
offered to sponsor the band.
Since the trio had clicked so
well, this financial support
allowed them to continue play­ing
together.
The band is releasing an
album in about one month. The
collection of original songs will
be entitled No Respect for Your­self.
Luis does the majority of the
song writing for the band.
"I write pretty often, but I
also like to throw away every
other song," he said. "The tune
has to stay with me for a while,
or else I'll just throw it out."
The band plans to enter a dif­ferent
studio soon to cut anoth­er
album, but that won't keep
the Zigtones from appearing
live.
The next scheduled stops
include Mobile and Birming­ham.
The next Auburn appearance
will be July 25-27 at the War
Eagle Supper Club.

As you and your armed com-janions
tiptoe down the dark,
iamp underground corridor,
t'ou Jhink you hear a growl.
Without warning, a huge red
Iragon appears. As you raise
lyour bow to shoot at it, you
Ipray it attacks one of your fel-
Jlow adventurers before you.
You've just been thrust into
Ithe forbidding, challenging
l&orld of a role-playing game.
In role-playing games, players
lassume the identity of charac-
Iters.
With a few friends and a
iDungeon Master, or DM, as
IWieir guide, players trudge
I through imaginary settings and
I scenarios, usually to defeat a
jterrible enemy or recover some
(lost priceless treasure.
Players can don the hat of a
^uscle-bound warrior, a wiz­ard,
a thief, an assassin, a space
cadet, or any type of character,
depending on a game's sce­nario.
Some Auburn students gather
together on campus at night to
battle demons and rescue help­less
maidens.
David Miller, 04MPG, is the
DM of a eight-member group
that meets in Haley Center on
Monday nights for the sole pur­pose
of playing Dungeons and
Dragons.
"When we get together, it's
like a big social event—like
playing cards. It's very time
consuming and sort of addic­tive,
so we play just once a
week," he said.
Miller said he likes all kinds
of role-playing games, except
the old west and Civil War sce­narios.
Important characteristics such
as strength, intelligence, charis­ma
and other qualities are con­sidered
and determine how
well a person's game goes.
"I like board games better
than computer games. I like to
make up games. ...It's a real
challenge to make your own
modules, especially for a big
group," he said.
"It requires lots of fore­thought.
You have to foresee
what the players will do. When

you've got eight guys, all of
them smart, it gets hard to out­wit
them beforehand," he says.
Fellow gamer John Drake,
04CE, prefers challenging
games.
"The character I had in the
first game I ever played had
two machine guns, a thermonu­clear
device. ...He was so pow­erful,
he couldn't be beaten. I
like suspenseful games, where
there's always the possibility of
being killed," he said.
Miller said that TSR, Inc.,
America's largest role game
manufacturer, has made some
changes for the worse.
"In TSR's book Deities and
Demi-Gods, a list of different
mythical gods, they took out the
devils and demons. It seems
they've knuckled under the
pressure of religious groups to
remove evil creatures from the
book.
"The basic concept (of D&D)
is the timeless conflict between
good and evil. Why remove the
evil characters?" he said.
Miller recommends Dungeon
magazine to gamers on a bud­get.
The magazine contains four
complete, ready-to-play adven­tures.
He said that the games are
much less complex and less-time
consuming than more
expensive games, but are usual­ly
fun.
Miller said that the games
aren't suited for everyone.
"There's a personality type
called the schizotypal personali­ty.
These people have difficulty
with real social relationships,
and have a tendency to retreat
into fantasy.
"These people get attached to
the characters, and when the
characters get wasted, if s bad,"
he said.
"But if it wasn't D&D, they'd
get into something else, like
religious cults," he said.

Actors overcome roles
So often we pray for the right
thing to happen at the right
moment. And more than often,
events come together coinciden-tally
that give greater meaning
than intended.
This is the case at the Alaba­ma
Shakespeare Festival in its
production of Anton Chekhov's
The Cherry Orchard.
In this play, an aristocratic
turn-of-the-century Russian
family is forced to sell its estate,
which means the destruction of
a vast, useless cherry orchard.
The irony is that at about the
same time The Cherry Orchard
opened, the Festival, and it's
magnificent park, was handed
over to the University of Alaba­ma
after private funding proved
unable to support the theatre
and its grounds.
I can almost hear a chuckle
from Chekhov's grave.
The production, full of ironies
within itself
