New Italian Restaurant Opens In Brevard
By Jill Avett
Islarted oul to gel an inlerview
and the next thing I knew I was
playing
‘chef," throwing pizza
dough in the air. Casey Jones
Pizza and Pastabilities, Inc., an
Italian restaurant, has just
recently opened here in Brevard.
^ I
Owners of Brevard’s newest restaurant are (1 to r) Ed
Williams, Heidi Williams, and John Taylor.
Located on South Broad Street
(formerly the site of The
Triangle), Casey Jones is owned
by Ed and Heidi Willians, both
former employees of the Chicago
Pizza Authority, and John and
Susie Taylor, owners of another
popular Brevard establishment,
Oh! Susanna's.
When asked how they came
about the Casey Jones theme,
John Taylor replied, “The
Triangle building looked like a
train station. We thought about
trains and the name Casey Jones
was the first thing that popped in
to our minds.” A legendary folk
hero, Casey Jones was a train
engineer who always made sure
his train arrived on time, “just
like our pizza deliveries," added
Ed Williams.’
Pizzas at Casey Jones are
made from fresh ingredients,
come in several sizes, and are
delivered free of charge to tlie
Brevard College campus. Casey
Jones also serves lasagna,
spaghetti, and other Italian
dishes as well as specialty sand
wiches. However, sandwich
deliveries require a $3.50
minimum purchase. "We hope
60% of our business will be carry
outs," said John Taylor. He add
ed, “We really want college
business and we want the
students to think of this as fun."
Casey Jones is open from 11 -.00
a.m. to 11:00 p.m. Tuesday-
Thursday, 11:00 a.m. to midnight
Friday and Saturday, and 11:00
a.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Sunday. The
restaurant is closed on Mondays.
Tlie phone number is 884-3733.

This Is What They Call “Higher Education
By Troy Hughes
When I was in high school, I
remember trying to imagine
what college would be like. I had
a fairly good idea from movies
andT.V., but I figured there had
lobe more to “higher education"
than parlies, studying, and more
parlies.
Okay, so I was wrong.
At least at first glance. But
after being at Brevard for nearly
three months. I've found out
some additional aspects of col
lege life I'd never imagined. Let
me share with you some events
Ive witnessed in the past week.
(WARNING: I suggest that you
do not try these yourself. They
can be dangerous to your person
and/or your college career.
Besides, they've already been
done.):
Wednesday night saw the
“Glow in the Dark Frisbee
Wars." A certain basement in a
certain dorm was closed off to in
nocent bystanders, all the doors
were shut, and the lights turned
off. A gang of five “warriors'
stood at each end of the hall and
proceeded to hurl three glowing
frisbees at each other. A sweaty
hour later no team seemed to be
Glamour Holds Contest
Glamour Magazine is presently
making preparations for its an
nual Top Ten College Women
competition.
Young women from colleges
and universities throughout the
country are invited to compete in
Glamour’s search for ten outstan
ding female students. A panel of
Glamour editors will select the
winners on the basis of their solid
records of achievement in
academic studies and/or in ex
tracurricular activities on cam
pus or in the community.
Participants Saluted
The 1985 Top Ten College
Women winners will be featured
in Glamour's August College
Issue. During May, June, or Ju
ly, I he ten winners will receive an
all-expenses paid trip to New
York City and will participate in
meetings with professionals in
their area of interest.
Anyone interested in entering
the search should contact the Of
fice of Student Affairs for more
information. The deadline for
submitting an application to
Glamour is December 7, 1984.
significantly ahead, and the war
was called due to pain.
Then came the attack of the
“Terrorist Fish. " A khakir
garbed, fish-faced, machine gun-
weilding female ran up and down
the corridors of a girls' dorm
knocking on doors and shouting
“rat-a-tat-tat " at bewildered
coeds. And it wasn't Halloween.
Saturday night saw the attemp
ted late-night-camping-trip-in-
the-rain affair. Five intrepid
adventurers left the campus at
11:30 at night, heading for a cam
ping place up in The Pisgah Na
tional Forest. After parking their
car and spending two hours in the
darkness and the rain, the fear
some five failed to find their in-
leded campsite with their single
flashlight and gave up. They
brought back with them several
bruises, a couple of scrapes, and
about a pound of mud apiece.
Finally, we come to what are
commonly called the “Red Dorm
Wars. " (The name lias been
changed, for obvious reasons.)
Although everyone in the dorm is
not involved, most of the floors
are at least represented. The up
per floors tend to favor large
amounts of water as their prime
weapon (much to the displeasure
of the floors below them) and the
lower floors have chosen toy guns
as their armament (much to the
confusion of everyone). If these
guys ever get serious about war
fare the world could be in big
trouble.
And this is just what I've heard
about. Who knows what else has
happened? Who knows what is
yet to come?
It makes me shud;ier to think of
wliat these “highly educated'
people will think of next.

“Teachers” Gets Good Grades
A special salute for a job well
done seems in order for all
students, faculty, staff and ad
ministrators who made Parents'
Weekend and the Founders' Day
celebration such a resounding
success.
People too numerous to name
played important roles in the
events that took place during
these weekends. The basketball
'earns displayed their talent and

The loudest words of praise
must go to the Fine Arts Division.
Members of the division not only
gave excellent performances, but
also supplied students the exper
tise, knowledge, and enthusiasm
to contribute superlative perfor
mances of their own as members
of the “Oklahoma" cast, the Col

bands. The music and drama
departments again distinguished
themselves through the talent of
their students as well as the ob

members.

Movie soundtracks are becom
ing today's new way to buy a wide
variety of music. Serious album
collectors-who shun the 45's and
those hit song collections sold in
drug stores-are beginning to
recognize soundtrack albums as
legitimate musical works.
One album in particular has
captured the music world s in
terest. With a good variety of
music, several popular bands,
and three Top 40 songs (with
more sure to come), the
“Teachers" soundtrack is a must
for any popular music collection.
Leading off with the Southern-
rock sound of .38 Special and
their hit title song “Teacher
Teacher, " the album starts off on
the right track. The smooth
sounds and good lyrics of this cat
chy song guaranteed it for the
success it has already experienc
ed.
The rest of the album is easily
up to the standards set by the
leading song. Roman Holliday's
“One Foot Back In Your Door, "
Freddie Mercury s “Foolin'
Around " and Night Ranger's “In
terstate Love Affair " provide
some excellent pop-rock music on
side one.
To round off the first side, Joe
Cocker slows things down with
his hit “Edge of A Dream. " This
romantic soft-rock song is one of
the best on the album thanks to
Cocker's powerful voice and the
excellent back-up band's strong
sound.
Side two starts off with ZZ Top
at their best-live. This rendition
(if their heavy bass song “Cheap
Sunglasses " is classic ZZ Top and
will probably be the next single
from the album to hit the Top 40.
Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet
Band provide the love ballad for
side two with their hit song
“Understanding. " Seger fans
may be a little disappointed witti
this one when comparing it to
some of his other songs, but as it
stands by itself it is a very good
song.
A good hard-rock song “I Can I
Stop the Fire " by Eric Martin &
Friends and the strong “In The
Jungle (Concrete Jungle)'" by
The Motels, also appear on side
two, and enrich the already full
sound of the whole album.
The album ends up with Ian
Hunter's “(I'm The) Teacher.
This songs sums up the feeling of
the whole album and the movie
(reviewed in the last issue of The
Clarion): the cynicism about to
day's educational system.
With its slightly new-wave
sound, its strong beat, and its ex
cellent lyrics, “(I'm The)
Teacher" is one of the better
songs on an album full of good
sounds.
