Cream of the Crop
Allmans 'Eat a Peach'
by Thorn Rednour
The Allman Brothers Band /Eat
A Peach (Capricorn 2CP0102).
Duane Allman is dead. One of
the finest virtuoso guitarists in
rock gone forever. Only
recordings are left of what was
the man. Several new recordings
have been released which show
his complete mastery of the
electric guitar. "Statesboro
Blues" from the Allman Brother
last lp is a fine example of the
kind of picker and slider that
Duane "Skydog" Allman was.
But he died in October. It is
now March. The Allman
Brothers Band continues
onward, never slacking. Now the
burden of lead work falls on
Dicky Betts, in his own right a
fine guitarist, but still no match
for Duane. That may sound
rather cruel, but it's not. There
is no equal to Duane Allman.
Eat A Peach, the latest Allman
Brothers Band album, is
dedicated to him. Of the four
sides, Duane is heard on three.
Two sides occupying a
thirty-four minute jam based on
Donovan's "First There Is A
Mountain", (showing the
Allmans at their best hot,
sweaty & loud), which leaves us
with two studio sides. Side
Three was recorded before
Duane's death, Side One after.
There is a difference. The side
with Duane has two other live
numbers, both featuring his hot
slide-guitar work, the classic
"One Way Out" and "Trouble
No More." The new material
FILM NOTES
La Dolce Vita is a long and
episodic portrait of Rome, a
corrupt, dark, glamorous and
ugly place - seen through the
eyes of Marcello (Marcello
Mastrianni), a cynical journalist.
Like Dante's "Inferno," it takes
us on a journey into the depths
of hell. Also starring Yvonne
Furneaux, Anouk Aimee, Anita
Ekberg, Alain Cuny, Nadia Gray,

Survey on Advising
Continued from page I
techniques, understanding,
continuous in relationships with
advisees, and trustfulness.
General comments from the
students included both
observations and suggestions.
The observations made by
several of the students are that
"advising is more valuable the
senior year than the freshman
year," that "the advising is
pretty good," and that
"Guilford's program is more or
less non-existent because I have
received in my opinion poor and
insufficient counseling."
Other suggestions were that
"advisors need a course in
curriculum .changes,"
"pre-registratic w information
should be posted on a bulletin
board," "advisors should post a
list of their advisees," perhaps,
"students would make the best
advisors, since they are closest to
the situation," the school should
"use adivsors who are more
includes two songs by Dicky
Betts, "Blue Sky" (one of the
best by him, in which he and
Duane duplicate solos note for
note and then some very nice
progressions) and another long
instrumental in the same vein as
"Elizabeth Reed" called "Les
Brers in a Minor" (this without
Duane). It's kinda nice, but too
long. The rest of the new stuff is
by Greg, a quiet ballad,
"Melissa" and two new blues
"Ain't Wastin' Time No More"
and "Stand Back" (co-written
by Berry). The former two just
with Dicky.
Trying to pinpoint
differences in the guitar work is
not only lunfair but very hard.
Betts is a very much underrated
guitarist who is now foremost in
this band. He has picked up the
task of carrying on very well,

for the Quakes in three years.
In the conference finals,
Guilford was felled by a variety
of the same ills which had
relegated last year's number two
team to fourth. Foul trouble,
lack of depth and height, and in
the first half only, a lack of
enthusiasm resulted in Guilford
falling behind by twenty-one
points.
In the concluding half of the
game, the Quakes steadily ate at
the lead, and twice pulled within
three. Fach time, unhappily,
Flon managed to increase its
lead until, finally, it could take
advantage of free throws to wrap
up the title.
Usually a very accurate team
from the floor, Guilford shot
only 41% in the three games of
the tournament. Crocker scored
29, 15, and 26 points while
leading the Quakers, continually
supplying points from outside
when they were needed. Ennis
also came through with
necessary points, totalling 45.
The 6-6 forward also had 37
rebounds.

STUDLNT, TLACIILR
COURSE EVALUATION made
each year, the advisor would be
much more able to subjectively
do a good job. For he could let
the student see the comments of
other teachers, students and
faculty about a certain course."
When asked if they felt that
they do a good job advising
students, fifty-five percent of
the academic advisors said
"yes." Seventeen percent said
"no," while twenty-two percent
said "yes and 110." The others
said they did not know.
The ones who said "yes" feel
they do a good job because they
spend a lot of time doing it and
are interested, have had
counseling training, take
registration seriously, try to
understand students, recognize
THE QUILFORDIAN
but Duane will be missed
Contrasting the new side with
the older one, we find The
Allman Brothers Band changing
very little, but the changes are
there. Betts is more into
love-style materials, while Greg
still follows the tried and true
course of the blues. A fusion
that will be interesting to watch
develop as time goes on. What
will the next Allman Brothers Ip
be like? I'm positive it will be
fine, fine music, for they will
always be great, but slightly
different.
Just one last note. There is
one other track on the album, an
acoustic guitar duet written by
Duane and performed
beautifully by Duane and Dicky.
It is perhaps the best track of
Eat A Peach. It's title: "Little
Martha."
East played steadily throughout
the tournament, and freshmen
Ray Massengill and Ken
McKinney both were valuable at
times.
Flon went on to play
Gardner-Webb in the NAIA
action, and lost 91-72. Lenoir
Rhyne beat Barber-Scotia and
was to meet Gardner-Webb
Wednesday night.
Baseball Team Opens
With Doubleheader Win
Coach Stuart Maynard could
not have been displeased with
the play of his baseball team
Tuesday, as they opene their
season by wiping out West
Liberty State twice.
Alert hitting won the first
game for Guilford, and
a freshman pitcher kept the
second under control. The
Quakers won 10-4 and 2-0.
Belmont Abbey was to be the
opposition Thursday, and
Davidson visits here Friday.
Next week, Guilford has
games with Methodist, Hiram,
and two with Otterbein, all at
home. The first conference game
is on the 20th, at Catawba.
their errors, know the
requirements, have done it for a
long time, don't do much
"counseling", and establish good
rapport.
The reasons several advisors
gave for being undecided ("yes"
and "no") were that they receive
no feedback, they still feel weak
on the technical aspect and see
students as adults who are
responsible for their own actions
(therefore, "accused" by some
of being a poor advisor.)
Almost all ( l ) 4%) of the
advisors feel that information
about registration, courses and
requirements is adequate.
Not quite half (45%) felt
information regarding what a
particular course involves is
adequate. Many felt that the
catalog is not descriptive
enough. Thirty-five percent of
the advisors would like to see
more detailed course
descriptions be available to
them.
Serendipity Planned
For Parents, Alumni
Serendipity Weekend,
Guilford's reception for Parents
and Alumni to be held in late
April, is being planned to hold

will begin the festivities. After
the concert, the College Union
will honor White by presenting
him with a lifetime membership
in the Guilford College Union.
The concert will cost $1.50 per
guest and $.50 per student. The
buffet dinner is $1.50 per guest.
Saturday's activities begin

guests at the president's home
followed by a discussion in Dana
involving students, parents, and
alumni.
