Chekov lays Begin Tomorrow

By j\:\E R YA\ taff Reporter

Two one act comedies by Russian playwright Anton Chekhov are to be presented in Coastal's lecture theatre this week.

The first performance, free to the public, will be tomorrow at 3:30 p.m. The two plays are also to be performed on Friday and Saturday nights at 8:00 p.m. A two dollar admission will be charged for the evening performances.

The first play is entitled "The Proposal." It is being directed by Preston McLaurin, a senior English major at Coastal. Virginia Blake, a soph· omore, plays Natalia. Bob Burns, Coastal's photographer, is Choobukov and Robin Mosely, a freshman. plays Lomov. The stage manager is Lisa Berry.

The play concerns a country boy, Lomov, who wishes to ask Natalia, his neighbor, to marry him.

According to Mike Fortner, Natalia is a "loud mouthed, lusty woman." The two lovers start arguing about boundary lines and the quality of each other's family hunting dogs. The subject of marriage is somehow not arrived at until ..... but the best way to find out is to see the play!

The second play, "The Bear", is directed by Becky Brunson, a member of the Upstage Company who works at the Convention Center.

Preston plays the bear, a chauvinistic man who believes all women are "coniving croc­odiles."

Patricia Floyd plays a wi­dow who is still loyal to her dead husband. She feels the same way about men as the bear feels about women.

The bear visits the widow's home to demand the interest due on a debt of her husband's. They naturally argue and grad­ually become a_ware that, al­though they dislike each other, they are basically very similar.

Future Teachers

Leave For D.C. ByJ D'l'I\I'

Editor Fifteen senior students enrolled in early childhood or inter­

mediate education will leave tomorrow for a three day education­al trip to Washington D.C. They will be accompanied by faculty members Stew Strothers and Bob Rodgers.

The group plans to make a presentation to President Carter if permitted which will reflect the feelings and expressions of many elementary school children in the area. The gift will be an album made by children in kindergarten through the sixth grade from the teaching centers in which these Coastal students are now serving their practicum experiences.

Strothers said, "We are grateful to Drs. Singleton, Stanton, Rex and other interested faculty and community leaders who have supported us in this endeavor."

Arrangements for VIP tours and visitations are being made by Congressman John Jenrette. Although the schedule is not complete they have already been scheduled for a VIP tour of the White House on Friday.

Other definite plans include picture taking with congressmen and a visit to the treasury department.

They also plan to visit the FBI building, the Smithsonian Institute and museum, The National Archives, Arlington National Cemetery and the Lincoln and Washington Memorials .

A prospective degree must first be approved by Coastal's Long Range Planning Com­mittee which evaluates the pro­gram in terms of CCC's long range plans.

The degree is then investi­gated for its academic feasi­bility by the Academic Affairs Committee.

Approval by the Faculty Senate is next and is usually automatic, said Stanton.

The final step at Coastal is approval by Dr.'s Single­ton and Stanton.

The degree program is then sent to Columbia where it must be approved by Dr. William H. Patterson, the Pres ­ident of the University Sys­tem, and the Board of Trus­tees.

Q1 ~ antitleer LETTERS OPINIONS

This Is It! The performance of Edmonds and Curley, a comedy team

from Chicago, was thought by many students to be the best booking Campus Union has made in the entire year.

According to Campus Union, they will present what will be the biggest event in the entire history of Coastal.

CINO Day is an annual break from the rat-race and rig-a-ma­roll of college life. It is a day to celebrate spring and friends and Coastal. Afternoon classes are cancelled, and students participate in fun-and-games. A concert is usually planned in the evening.

But! What is this? A whole week of CINO Days. Not quite, but in a sense, yes. Campus Union is planning an entire week of programming - - - an entire week!!

This sounds like an impossible task for the small handful of students who have an active part in Campus Union. As of now it is a dream, a vision , a hope of reality.

Tentative plans for CINO Week include a disco, a hayride, a fishing trip, a "50's day" and the return of the Michael Leon­hardt Trio. But don ' ~ forget the traditional fun-and-games on Wednesday and the Mission Mountain Wood Band that evening. CINO Week will be April 11-15.

This would be a first for Coastal, a feather in the cap of Cam­pus Union, a great week for students. The question is "will CINO Week work?"

Obstacles, problems, setbacks, they always get in the way. One obstacle is money. The money is there, but it will only go so far Problems include not enough help and hours in a day and setbacks result from partial un organization of Campus Union. Someone needs to set a fire underneath the coordinator and the committee chairpersons. Plans must be made now.

However, there is only so much people can do. AI Poston, director of Student Activities, said Campus Union is a small group of people who are overworked. They are planning events, booking bands and providing entertainment for you. You should take advantage of this situation. Give your suggestions and ideas. This is the surest way to get the type of programming you want. If you don't help, don't complain.

Campus Union needs all the ideas, manpower, and encourage­ment they can get. If CINO Week is to exist and be a success, Campus Union must have the support of the student body.

If you can help, you should talk to Patrice Boyd or Jim Vogel, co-chairpersons of special events, Michael Boone or Marshall Barnes, co-chairpersons of the entertainment committee, or Rick Wall, student coordinator of Campus Union. Also, you may attend any of the Campus Union or committee meetings; times and places will be posted.

Will CINO Week work? Yes, with your help and support. Remember, if you get involved with the planning it will be more fun than it could ever be by merely participating.

Give this dream a happy ending!

Noisy Enthusiasm Hurts Coastal?

I found that I was laughing at the quality of ball the students here call exciting. If Coastal's students only knew how good a team they have.

In no way am I telling you that Coastal is a better school than Kent because there is no need for me to try and kid anyone ; Kent is the better school. I do believe however, that Coastal has its place and can meet certain need~ of the students that attend.

they weren't receiving full funds. It is because of people like Jim at Coastal that I am writing this letter. To The Editor:

The purposes of this letter are twofold.

1. To congratulate the stu­dents for their enthusiastic support of the Chanticleer basket ball team and to en­courage their continued en­thusiasm.

2. To suggest to this en· thusiastic group that they examine some of their behav­ior to determine whether they are helping or hurting the basketball team and perhaps the image of the school. The two specific examples I have in mind are:

a. The loud noisemaking while the opposing team shoots foul shots. Having played the game of basket-

ball for many years, I am aware that one of the great­est negative affects a crowd can have on a ball player is absolute silence when he approaches the foul line with some over-exaggerated Shss. To support this point I would like to submit the following information. Coas­tal's record at home is 9 wins and 2 losses. Eve;­though wehave an out­standing record at home we have made 174 foul shots out of 255 attempted for a 68% shooting average. Op­posing teams have made 177 foul shots out of 240 attempted for a 74% shoot­ing average. As you can see from these records all of the

noise has essentially been useless or even worse has helped the opposing teams. b. The incessant drumming of pots and pans during the game. My only com­ments are I don't believe this shows any class at all and community supporters are not going to continue to come to our games if they have to go home with splitting headaches. Thanks for the space, these

are my opinions and I have taken time to write you be­cause I believe they are in the best interest of Coastal Car­olina.

Sincerely. Paul E. Stanton

Dean of Academic Affairs

As for me, I am certain Kent, or any other college in America, could not have given me what Coastal has. One rea­son being there is no other place like Coastal. But the main reason is because of the excellent teaching methods of Jim Ravoira. It is because of him that I was able to realize that I can be an artist.

Despite what other pseudo­students at Coastal feel of his person, he is a very fine teach­er. Just because there is dis-

For the people at Coastal who eat at Cino's - bear with it. Cino's is cheap compared to this place. For those who lock keys in cars at Coastal, remember nothing happens by acciden t; you lock your keys in your car because you love Coastal and don't want to leave it. For Dr. Trout - my room key was made in Fitch­burg.

For Coastal - thanks for being the school you are, and last but not least, to the student body - Coastal has a lot to offer no matter how trivial it may seem. Reach for it, it's there.

Love. Charles Wright

Coastal Carolina placed five players in double figures during the last home game for the 77 season which resulted in an easy defeat of Limestone, 92-71.

Limestone's only bright spot was Steve Lequire, who scored 25 points, to lead all scorers.

The second half saw the more talented Coastal squad take control by outscoring Limestone 21-8 in the first 7 minutes of play and in the process taking a 55-37 lead with 13:23 left in the contest.

The victory was never in doubt

as Coastal improved its overall record to 19-8 and 1 7-4 in NAIA District 6 competition, while Limestone dropped to 2-24.

C. Carolina entered the Er­skine game as the number six team in the District in the Dunkel Ratings, while Erskine had risen to the number two spot.

The Chanticleers battled the Flying Fleet tooth and nail in the first half, but scored the six points of the period to take a 31-27 lead into the lockerroom on a jump shot with :05 on the clock by Steve Whittington. "Whit" produced a season high 28 poin ts in the contest.

Student Committee

Listens To Problems By MARY RYAN

Staff Reporter Can Coastal students pre·

vent other Coastal students from "dropping out"?

They'll have a chance to try. A committee of Coastal students will be selected by Academic Dean Paul Stanton. The committee's primary duty will be to serve as a liason be­tween the students and Stan­ton.

Through this liason stu­dents' problems, whether aca­demic or personal, will be brougnt to the notice of fac-

ulty members. These professors would provide intensive advise­men t which may lower the drop-out rate at Coastal.

Stanton believes that many students with problems "do not feel comfortable enough to make statements to me about difficulties in their cour-

- ses. I would like the com­mittee's monthly meetings to become- one of Coastal's tra­ditions at which students can feel free to discuss the strengths and weaknesses of our academic program."

Horry County Police Analyzed By Student Living in such a resort area, having a three day weekend every week should be enjoy­able to everyone, according to (Editors Note: This is the first

in a series of articles on the police in this area. In this article dealing with the Horry County Police Department, in· formation came from an inter· view with HCPD secretary, Janice Skipper. Higher ranking officials such as the chief or lieutenant were not available for comment.)

By TIM MEACHAM Staff Reporter

The Horry Coun ty Police Department employs a total of 30 officers. This includes one chief, one lieutenant, two sergeants, two corporals, three desk officers, a few detectives, and the remaining patrolmen.

According to Janice Skipper, the HCPD was formed in 1959 as a separate unit from the sheriff's office. The sheriff's department, with few­er than six people, is primarily fQr the purpose of serving

legal papers. There is now some controversy over whether it should merge with the HCPD.

Skipper said the HCPD is not regulated by the Civil Service Commission (as many police agencies are ), but is controlled by the South Car­olina Police Training Council as state-regulating agency lo­cated in Columbia.

To become an Horry County policeman, a candidate must meet requirements established by a comprehensive act of the South Carolina General Assembly on Jan. 1, 1972. These requirements are:

(1) a high school education or equivalency. (2) a physical examination proving that the candidate is in good condition. This can be conducted by the candidate's own physician or an appointed physician, if one is available.

Has anyone started a secret boycott on my column without telling me or was it the "write-right foot" pun that turned you off? I was hoping that my sexy little mail box would be an in­centive to write, but evidently, 111 have to come up with some­thing better because no one wrote me anything!

It may have all been for the better though, you see I panicked and began roaming the offices of the professors. I found some very interesting people. Is anyone here acquainted with Sam Taylor? If not make it a point to talk with him ..... what a trip!

Sam is a student and a faculty member. He is teaching history in the absence of Dr. Farsolas who is currently doing research. Taylor is an honor history graduate from Coastal Carolina and also attended the University of Maryland. Taylor plans to enroll in law school this fall at the University of Columbia. Why? "Because it's the cheapest". Good sound reasoning, Sam.

I also caught Assistant Professor of Education - Stew Strothers. Monday thru Wednesday of last week Stew participated in the Laubach Reading program on campus. The purpose of the pro­gram is to help people with reading difficulties.

Strothers also gave a speech to the Horry County Square and Compass Society a study group for the Masons. The topic of the speech was on Leadership and Citizen Responsibility.

This weekend Stew will have his hands full with 15 Social Studies students in Washington D.C. Take notes, I want to hear all about it when you get back.

(3) "Evidence of a success­ful completion of a course of police training as estab­lished and approved by the council."

Other requirements include an investigation by the FBI and SLED into the person's background to make sure there is "evidence of the candidate's good moral character."

Skipper said the training course described above con­sists of a paid eight-week course at the police academy in Columbia. This regulation does not, however, cover every­one in the police department. It only affects those employed after Jan. 1, 1972.

There are no "required number of arrest" quotas. Skipper explained that this is

Band Plays Washtub

By MARSHALL BARNES Staff Reporter

The First National Rotagilla Band will be performing in concert at Coastal on March 7, the exact time and location to be announced later.

According to Michael Boone, co-chairman of the entertain­ment committee, the band offers the best in ragtime, folkrock and traditional music done in the Rotagilla style.

The band consists of five members whose instruments range from banjos to kazoos to an electric washtub. Their show is designed to capti­vate any audience with a 50's show, a nostalgic "Boys in the Band" show and even a tongue­in-cheek tribute to "Deliver­ance" called "Dueling Gut­buckets."

Boone added, "Campus Un­ion has worked hard this year in order to bring entertainment to all students, and I think everyone will enjoy the Rota­gilla Band. The only other comment I can make is Roga­gilla is alligator spelled back­wards."

because Horry County is un­evenly populated and there is an extreme fluctuation be­tween the summer and winter popUlation. The recovery rate in areas such as murder and lar­ceny is excellent. During the period of Jan.-Sept. 1976, ten out of the 11 homicide cases were "cleared by arrest." Thirty-six out of 42 larceny cases were also cleared.

In other serious crimes the record is not as impressive. Only eigh out of 16 rape cases were cleared; only 130 out of 270 assault cases were solved. The weakest area is breaking and entering, where only 70 out of 452 cases were cleared.

Many Coastal students have complained that if one gets arrested, it is extremely diffi­cult to get in touch with help. Skipper said "Everyone is entitled to one phone call and possibly more - de­pending on how busy the jailer is."

Marsh H. Myers, Jr., director of admissions.

The schedule of courses is available in the admission of· fice_ All of the courses in great demand by the student re­sponse to the summer course questionnaire are being offered except three, said Myers. Myers would not reveal which courses they were or even the depart­ments involved. There are other courses avail a ble also which were not listed on the questionnaire.

Meyers said he has been un· happy with the amount of con­cern given to more convenient student schedules. He said he realizes many students have large gaps of time between their classes and as a student advocate, he is striving to see more consideration given to the students' needs.

"Staff problems shouldn't have top priority," said Myers.
