'Spoon River' Begins May 9 Edgar Lee Masters' Spoon

River Anthology will provtde the text of an mterpretau ve recttation to be presented tn our audttorium at 8 :00 o 'clock Thursday, Fnday and Saturday ntghts under the dtrect.ion of Mr. Stewart Be ach.

Poems lD Spoon River An· &bology are of an unusual kind, posseuing no poetic diction or poet.ic devices. Masters captures the spirit and essence of the Midwest in the late Dineteentb century much as Robert Frost did for New England. His plain, sa.tirlcal yet rom&ntlc verses are a col­lecUon of epitaphs tbat the residents of the Spoon River graveyard presmnably would write for &bemsel ves if they could.

Spoon ostensibly

is .. fictitious towu in

Southern lllhwis , but it is in· tereettng t.o note that tbe a.n­tb.ology made Masters highly unpopular with ma.ny of tbe people to Lewistown, Illinois, wbere be lived for a time.

A cross-section of the people IS revealed, showmg the uoni­cal tnvlallttes that change human lives, the capricious ways nature bnngs them to theu deaths, and the simple, personal joys that provide the only stgnificant memories in a lifetime.

Rabbi Helman Presents Twelve Judaica Works

The main Visual feature of tbe production is its lighting, which is used to heighten the effects of the poetry. Appropriate fol k songs are Interspersed , adding comedy, tra.gedy, and credi bility to tbe show. One leaves the auditorium with the feeling o f having visited a. colorful, picturesque sma.ll town.

EDITORIALS Sandbox Outgrown

Begmning September 1, 1968, women's regulauons will be hberal­ized m two more areas. Acc:ordmg to the Committee on Student L1fe and Welfare, all women resi dmg 10 women's residence halls will be given twelve o'clock permissions for each Fnday and Saturday mght. Th1s change has been sought for a long ume. Women on this campus vary 10 age from approximately 17 to 23. These females are no longer sand box age and need not be guarded. Their moral standards have long s1nce been established and the time has come when these standards w1ll be tested. It IS up to the women now to show that they can accept new freedoms.

Another change IS being made is 1n the area of appropriate clothing. Informal attire will be acceptable for Friday and Saturday evemng meals. or course, students under this new regulation must show that they will dress 1n good taste.

The committee on student life and welfare has shown that they recognize that the women on campus are mature, responsible adults.

Gourmets, Beware Dear Editor:

Have you ever found eyelashes in your food? While eating a bowl of chili in the GSC cafeteria recently, I happened to glance into the bowl and saw an eyelash floating on top or the chil i.

An eyelash in my food wouldn ' t have been parti cu larly disturbing if it hadn't brought to mind an experiment I had witnessed whi le taki ng a Microbi ology class: an eyelash was placed in a Petrie di sh which contained a substance used for growing bacteria. After about two days, the eyelash was examined and a growth of Staphy­lococci approximately 118 i nch wide had formed around the eye­l ash.

Besides eyelashes, anyone who eats in the GSC cafeteria may find dnt, hairs and even grasshoppers in his "food," assuming he has the courage to look at it.

Of course, we musm't forget the vegetables that h ave to be cut with a knife, the liquid mashed potatoes, the green meat, the i n­sipid tea and gravy that defies description.

So, a word to those who eat i n our cafeteria-BE ALERT AT ALL TIMES!

Holy Roller Court Traditio Basis For TKE Ball May 1

Tau Kappa Epsilon will pre· sent the 35th annual Court Ball on Saturday. The 'Kickm' Mus­tangs from Kentucky will pl ay from 9 to 1. There Will be a breakfast followmg the dance.

The tustory of the Court Ball i s almost as old as the dance itself. One fall mght 10 1928 a group of residents of Kanawha Hall thought It would be a capt ­tal sport to roll toilets dOwn the sta1rcase of the Hall. There were rumors of expelling these groups or "rollers" for their actions. In order to protect themselves, they banned to­gether think.mg there was strength in number s.

What happened when the men went into the off1ce of Presi­dent E. G. Rohrbough was never revealed, bu t out or all or the confusion became Glenville State College"s first soctal fraternity, The Holy Roller fraterm ty.

In 1930, a young orgamzation known as the · 'Buuermilk Court'' was merged with the Holy Rollers to form the Holy

Roller Court. On May 9, 1930, the Court held a spring dance in the coil ege gymnasium whtcb was known as the Holy Roller Court Ball. The gymnasium was decorated in green and white, then colors, and was formal.

Holy Roller Court changed thea colors to bl ack and white in 1955 , and became interna­tionally known as the Iota Omega Chapter of Tau Kappa Epsilon in May 1964, but the Court Ball is still hel d each spring.

Because of the war yeaxs 1943-46, the Holy Roller Court became Inactive. Followtng the war, however, a rew or the old Court members reactivated the fraterntty and it bas been grow­ing ever since then.

Court Ball is the oldest trad.i· t1onal dance to be hel d a.t Gl en· v1lle. It IS even older than

Homecommg Day. Besides the dance on Saturday

mght there wtll be a Cowt Carmval on Saturday afternoon and the Annual Mother's Day Smg on Sunday.

Omega Kappa Phi Holds Smoker; Enters Oil Drum Regatta at Tech.

Refresh ­ments were served by Penny Atkmson, Jan1ce Al len, Donna Ptttman, Donna Mtlls, Jeannie Moran, Lana Turner, and Bobbie Boggs. Lynn Stotler played the piano dunng the smoker.

The fraters of Omega Kappa Phi entered two rafts in the W. Va. Tech. Annual Otl · Drum Regatta which was held re­cently on the Kanawha Rtver. The nme-mile course was a test of both the durability of the rafts and the strength of the men. Both Kappa Phi rafts and crews hmshed the race and placed in the standmgs. Many rafts sought the aid o f the Coast Guard patrol boats to tow them in or gave up com-

pletely because or rart 10-

stabll i ty. Raf t captain Mtke Geary stated, "'We learned thts year . we' ll g1ve them a race next year."'

The two rafts were named the ·· Pueblo" and "Rt ver Runner s··. The "'Pueblo" was manned by Mtke Geary, capta.tn; Bill Gallagher; Gary Farnsworth: Bruce Shew; Shell Hmkley, and Ron Robmson.

The CSC golf team has come alive in their last four matches. getting a f i rst, two seconds and a fourth place in upping their record tD 7 -8. After a dismal start with an Q-S at L ake Riley and a seventh i n the Eastern Regional, the team has pulled together and knocked as much as 50 strokes on team score and ten on individual score.

J im Collins, a third year golfing product of Glenville H igh School is leadin g this years team mid·season surge. Collins h ad a three over par 75 at Lake Riley Friday in Glenville' s second place finish against Salem and W. Va. Tech.

Charlie Carpenter, Freshman Chris Fritz Simmons and Bob Green e had a 79. Bob Fultineer rounded out the esc effort with an 81, for a team average of 78.2.

Wi th the exception of Salem's Ted Obar's 72, the GSC team played even with Salem, bu t the even par round by Obtr gave Salem the four stroke victory.

Far behind Glenville and Sa1 em was Tech with 440, 53 s trokes off Sal em's pace.

Glenville placed second at Hawk's Nest, losing again to Salem on a r~n soaked course and placing first at Wesleyan, defeating Fainnont, Alderson Broaddus and Wesleyan.

Glenville has two matches yet to play, the Northern Regional Thursday and the State Tournament at Ogleboy Park May 13·14.

The Glenville track team is participating in the 19th Annual WVIAC State meet this week at Con cord College. Concord has the onl y Crosstex rield in the state and as such should produce a number of new records. The track is faster than an under track and could be an advantage tD the Pioneer team. West Liberty is favored to win the over a11 trophy but Salem and Wesleyan are derinite contenders.

AI though Glen ville doesn ' t carry a full team, they placed second behi nd Salem last week and should make a fine showi ng considering the si ze of the aquad.

Home Furnishing Class

Furnishing Stripping furniture down to the

bare wood, and many times even reshaping the entire structure are only two or the many chores which the girls i n the " Problems in Home Furnishing" class undertake.

These girls, all borne eco· nomics majors, choose old pieces of furmture and turn them tnto new lookmg ones again.

Often thi s process mcludes re· domg the springs, repaddmg, and upholstering the piece. Slip covers are then made as a final touch for the refinished products.

Skills Taught Only a minimum of tools are

used such as a hammer, screw-

driver , a webbing stretcher, and borne made saw horses. The reasou for the minimum amount ot equipment, according to Mrs. Lillian Chaddock, mstructor, is "so that when the students go home they can redo rurn1 ane

withou t the use or expenstve equipment. It also serves to keep cost at a minimum, thus making refinishing practical from an economic standpomL"

Other prOJeCts wbtcb are under­taken include makmg drapenes and other household decoraove ttems.
