Winters Brothers Band Breaks the Break
To tempt students back to
Guilford after a blissful Fall
Break, the Guilford College
Student Union presents the
Winters Brothers Band in
concert with Oconee on
Saturday, October 29.
The concert, beginning at
8:00 p.m., will be held in Dana
Hood Explains Policy
So as not to jeopardize
the position of student who
may come before the Judicial
Board, Jim Hood, chairman,
speaks about the alcohol
policy with care and deliber
ation. He believes that the
recent policy will solve some
old problems, while causing
some new problems at the
same time. "I first thought
that it would make things very
difficult if somebody came
before the board," Jim
remarked. "It would be hard
to enforce, since there are so
many variables."
Jim feels that the policy
will be helpful in that it "makes
someone responsible for the
party." Residents who petition
for a party are less likely to
allow their party to become
raucous and disturb other
residents if they know that
they will have to suffer the
consequences.
Auditorium. Tickets are 50C to
all Guilford students and $2.50
to the general public. They
may be purchased at the Infor
mation Desk in Founders
Lobby or at the door the night
of the show.
Although relatively un
known outside the South the
The Winters Brothers Band comes to Guilford
The biggest problem for the
student, Jim thinks, is that
it "cuts out spontaneity."
Residents must petition to
have parties with over eight
people present; if more than
eight party-ers "just happen"
to drop by, the host may find
himself appearing before the
Judicial Board. In a case such
as this, "our decision would
depend on the attitudes of
the person making the charge,
and the person being charged.
If it were truly happenstance,
there wouldn't be any
problem," Jim added.
Jim admitted that the
Judicial Board wields consider
able power in interpreting
school regulations such as the
alcohol policy, but prefers to
consider it "a responsibility to
the community." He explained
that "all people on the board
try to be fair. There are a
number of people looking at
things in a number of differ
Winters Brothers Band is
beginning to establish an
excellent reputation for good
music. The four man ensemble
from Tennessee plays a
consistently pleasing style
of country and cowboy rock.
Combining the best elements
of Poco, the Marshall Tucker
ent ways, and they all must
agree before any decision is
made." The board considers
decisions and sentences made
in past cases where they apply,
and also follows guidelines
which establish minimum
sentences for certain offenses.
And, of course, every decision
can be appealed to the Student
Affairs Committee. The rights
of both the individual and
the community are taken
into consideration.
The Judicial Board consists
of a student chairman,
Jim, five student members,
and three faculty members.
Student members are Phil
Manz, Bill Terrell, Lynn
Lippincott, Denise Dussom,
and Glynnis Hill, with John
Richardson, Jim Weiner, and
Sally Busken serving as
alternates. The faculty
members include Sheridan
Margaret Young, and an alter
nate, Rudy Gordh.
Band, and even the Allman
Brothers Band, the Winters
brothers play their songs in a
hard-driving, polished manner.
With the band is Oconee,
a Georgia band that has
opened concerts for such
performers as Jimmy Buffett
and Cowboy, as well as enter
taining other southeastern
colleges. Oconee is another
unique mixture of musical
elements, including rock, jazz,
folk, and classical influences.
All of these components
are fused together onstage
into an exciting presentation.
The Winters Brothers Band
also radiates a dynamic
onstage presence. As can be
concluded from their first
album, "The Winters Brothers
Band" (Atco Records), this
band deserves recognition
after its four years of existence.

A Better Bookstore
The Guilford College book
store is preparing for immediate
rejuvenation. This will include
the addition of approximately
1,000 new titles by the begin
ning of second semester.
A special ad hoc committee
now meets every two weeks
to begin generating a list of
largely current paperbacks
for addition to bookstore
shelves. The committe is
chaired by English Department
Chairperson, Mildred Marlette.
Other members include Don
Millholland, Carol Stonebumer,
Darryl Kent, Herb Poole, Ken
Schwab, Delores DeSanto,
Jim Newlin, and April Evans,
the student representative
recently elected by the
Community Senate.
All faculty members have
been contacted and asked to
submit book recommendations
they feel will be of interest
to both students and faculty
in the Guilford Community.
The bookstore committee will,
later, review these faculty lists
for selection.
In previous years the book-
with deep roots in southern
music. From this heritage
come the words and music to
all their songs from ballads
such as "Laredo" to fast
moving tunes like "Old
Stories." As the Winters
brothers play, song after song
has the potential to carry the
listener away, back to the
country be it Tennessee,
Texas, or California. However,
the Band cannot be consider
ed just another "down home"
group; fundamentally, the
songs belong to rock'n'roll.
The problem in describing
the Winters Brothers Band
is that their musical style is
difficult to pin down to
any specific category. Their
music must be experienced to
be understood. Guilford
students will have the oppor
tunity to do so on Saturday,
October 29.
store was operated by College
Management Services, Inc. of
Florida. Last year, the Admin
istrative Council reviewed this
company's agreement and
decided to cancel their
contract for several reasons.
One reason cited was the
lack of non-textbooks. College
Management Services offered
almost no paperbacks or
current hardbacks of general
interest to student and faculty.
Secondly, the company also
wanted to renegotiate their
contract, which would have
resulted in price increases and
resultant financial difficulties
which caused delays in ship
ments.
Since May, 1977, the
college has assumed full
responsibility for running the
bookstore.
Delores DeSanto, a veteran
staff member, has been hired
by Guilford and Greensboro
Colleges, as joint manager for
the two bookstores. Mrs.
DeSanto states that other
improvements may include the
addition of a craft center
featuring student work.
