only contested position for the

Arts Week Begins on Campus Monday
Monday morning at 11:30 in
the Parquet Room, the Arts
Committee will present a lecture
by W. Crutcher Ross. An
established artist in the field of
architecture, he will present “The
New Look in Architectufe.”
Donnell Stoneman
Ross, a Metrolina resident, will
be the first speaker of New Arts
Festival. The theme of the week,
“A Look at the New Look”
implies an expose of the newest
technique, form and art
presentation. Centering in on
Metrolina, Arts Week will present
what we are producing now, what
is available, and what we can
expect in tomorrow’s art.
E. Donnell Stoneman, also a
Charlottean and the Director of
Cultural Affairs at WTVl, will
lecture on Monday at 2:00 P.M. in
the Parquet Room. His topic,
“The New Look in the Theatre”
will be most entertaining since he
is a professional actor, director,
and film maker. He has made
films in Rome and on the west
coast, but Metrolina claims him
because of his work at Chapel Hill
in “The Lost Colony” and with
the Charlotte Mint and Little
Theatre?
Art’s week is geared to
participation and experience in
the “New Look” itself. Hal
Braddon will emphasize this on
Tuesday at 11:30 in the Parquet
Room as he speaks and shows
slides on the “New Look in
Charlotte.” Not only will he
inform us of new looks, but he
will also present the newest in
sound which is coming our way.
Braddon, a Charlotte resident has
studied at Ringing School of Art,
Pratt Institute and Traphagen, and
exhibit from the N. C. State
School of Design will be featured
in the back of the Parquet Room.
A photography exhibit by John
H. Wliite and a painting exhibit by
Walt Storozuk will be in tlie main
Storozuk Relaxes
is affiliated with many artists of
various fields in New York and
Philadelphia.
During the entire week exhibits
will be open to the student body.

Fraternities
Approved
The UNC-C faculty completed
action on the question of social
fraternities and sororities Friday
and voted to recommend approval
of them to Chancellor D. W.
Colvard.
At least two colonies of
national fraternities already exist
off campus without University
recognition. Dr. Ed Perzel,
chairman of the Student Activities
Committee said that it was the
committee’s feeling that since
colonies of fraternities do exist it
would be better for the. University
to recognize them and have some
control over them.
Dr. Perzel said that the
committee sent questionnaires to
other new universities around the
country. He said that the answers
indicate the fraternities and
sororities on a new campus add to
the school spirit and social life of

only son of William Butler Yeats,
whom many critics regard as the
greatest English poet of modern
times, will speak here on March
19, 1969, at 8:00 P.M. in the
Union Parquet room, under the
auspices of The Union Program
Board. The subject of his lecture
will be Yeats: The Public Man.
A lawyer and, like his father, a
leading spokesman for the
Government in the Irish Senate,
Michael Yeats is exceptionally
well-informed on Ireland’s social,
economic and international
affairs, as well as its colorful
history and traditions. Of
particular interest to Senator
Yeats are the socio-economic
problems being faced by the New
Ireland - the age-old tradition of
late marriage, the constant
migration to America, the
autocracy of the clergy, and the
valiant efforts being made to bring
Ireland out of the industrial Dark
Ages and into the mainstream of
world economy. An ardent
internationalist. Senator Yeats is
one of the guiding forces behind
Ireland’s recent decision to apply
for membership in the European
Common Market.
Senator Yeats
Senator Yeats, whose father
died when the Senator was
seventeen, vividly recalls the
Nobel Prize winner’s family life,
artistic and political affiliations
and many of the sources of his
father’s poetic inspiration. An
authority on Irish folk music -
particularly as it has reflected the
history of Ireland with all its
struggles and aspirations - Senator
Yeats is the music critic of one of
Ireland’s leading newspapers.
Senator Yeats is married to
renowned singer-harpist, Grainne
Yeats. Together they live in
Dalkey, Ireland, a charming village
on the sea not far from Dublin.

lounge.
Wliite, a young Charlotte man,
won second place in the general
news category of the
twenty-seventh annual Picture of
the Year contest. Sponsored by
the NPPA, this is a most coveted
award in the country’s top contest
for new’s photographers.
“Sfumatezza”, Storozuk’s
newest painting media, has
generated excitement with its
brilliant colors, hard and soft
edges, and tremendous activity
within itself. Storozuk has had a
one-man show at the Jasper Rand
Art Museum in Westfield,
Massachuset, and has participated
in the Eastern States Exposition
in Springfield.
Other events including a jazz
concert by the Jim l.ackey Group,
a concert and lecture by Fred
Nance, underground Warhol
movies, and productions of
“Crawling Arnold” are scheduled
for later in the week.
African
History
Offered
The Office of Academic Affairs
announced late last week that the
Charlotte branch of the University
of North Carolina has hired a
qualified professor to teach a
course in African history. This
follows closely on the heels of the
now well-known “Ten Demands”
presented to the faculty and
administration here by several
(Continued on page 7)
innovations planned for her term
in office. “1 plan to set up regular
hours for interviews with students
who have suggestions or
complaints about the Union’s
functioning and programs,” she
stated, following her election. She
plans also to expand the duties of
the vice-chairman to serve as a
liason between the students and
the Union committees and also
between Union committee
chairmen. "One of the first things
1 want to do.” emphasized Mrs.
Ingram, a junior English major, “is
to set up an ad hoc committee to
study the rewriting of the Union
constitution-a project which has
been underway for two years with
little measurable progress.”
Steve Rayborn. newly elected
vice-chairman, was unavailable for
comment.
A sociology major. Miss Kepley
has been active in the Union
program during her three years
here. While serving as secretary
she hopes “to see the students and
faculty take a more active part In
the programming of the Union in
order that its members of the
executive committee might
provide a well-rounded and
satisfactory slate of events.”
“1 hope that the future will
prove,” continues Miss Kepley.
“each of the new officers capable
of fulfilling its duties for the good
of the Union and the students.”
Barbara Mayer, the newly
elected treasurer, is a sophomore
from Camden, South Carolina.
She says that she plans to help the
other offices of the Union in
planning events for the coming
year and also that she “will be
responsible for the keeping of the
books concerning all money
allocated for the Union.”
Among the other plans which
Chairman Ingram has in the works
are separate mailboxes for all
officers and committee chairmen,
introducing the new officers and
committee chairmen to people in
leading positions in the
Administration, strict
enforcement of the rules
concerning the spending of funds,
and a new policy on public
relations. This function will be
removed from the responsibilities
of the Publicity Committee and
placed in the hands of a
representative of the Union or
perhaps a special committee.
