Once ^It starts it usually continues to fruitionl Does that say ^hything ?bout me and my attitude towards sex? I don’t know of anyone else who experiences such things under these circumstances. A- The above letter was not signed and there was no ‘Ih'ect way of knowing the sex of the author. However, the likelihood is very strong that th^i? was written by a man. A very small percentage of men will experience orgasm under a variety of nonsexual, stressful situat^ns. Jh's s most common among young adolescent men. Is also seen in_ men in their early twenties, but is rare beyond that. Severe anxiety or fright, strenuous Physical activfty that Increases muscle tension such as chinning, taking an ^Jaminatlon under* pressure, and (count yourself produce orgasms. Spontaneous orgasms exams do not seem to occur in women although sorne women have reported frequent spontaneous orgasms while withdrawing from drugs. Men ^**The** phenomenon does not say anything about you toward sex. It says more about the nature of orgasm, which is dependent upon certain neurologic impluses that can also be triggered by a yef'ety °f other circumstances. A slightly simplistic but possibly accy/®*® Is that the excitement of the exam or other stressful \ spill over of neurologic messages into adjoining circuits which results in a free explosion of the sexual apparatus. Unfortunately, such gratuitous orgasms are not associated with enjoyment, coming at the inconvenient time -that thedo. Some people are so gifted (I can t ?hro*Mah word) that they can produce orgasms spontaneously simply through voluntary mental effort and fantasy. Women show a somewhat greater proclivity toward this rare talent than do men. ..... If these orgasms are frequent or predictable, you might try masturbating to orgasm before the exam which should tend to diminish the susceptibility of your genital system to respond to further stimulation for a short period of time. This recommendation would doesn’t make you more anxious. lUILIICI aillf IWiMUvrsi only be of value if it Q: Why do men and women have hair in the arm pits and the pubic area? A: Men and women have pubic and axillary hair because it looks nice. Actually teleologists suggest that such hair Is an antifriction device, as well as a means of evaporating moisture and keeping your skin cooler in these areas. The antifriction device Idea is supported by the fact that specialized sweat glands In these areas exude oily substances and the hair has a different consistency than hair on your head. Hair serves as tactile (touch) receptors as well. This may make sense In the pubic area, but I can t figure out what there Is to feel under one’s arms. page four/the journai/july 20, 1972 Q; I was recently visiting a friend who lives with a food freak. While reading one of her roommate’s magazines, I ran across some statements that said that meat produces by-products during digestion and cause anxiety. This vegetarian line suggests taht digestion of meat is harmful to the body. A sample quote Is enclosed: "The large Intestine secretes uric acid which produces a fermentation that putrlfies the body...Since minerals neutralize acid, the body is forced to draw on reserves in the bones and teeth and mineral deficiency results.” where he was assistant professor, holds a Ph. D. from Florida State University; John Swiger, assistant professor of business ilministration, is a candidate for his Doctorate at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill; Thomas Forrest, assistant professor of sociology, is a candidate for a Ph.D. at Ohio State University. Enrollment for the first term of summer school was slightly more than 2600, a 10.6% increase over last summer. According to Dr. Seth Ellis, Director of the Summer Session, UNCC is budgeted for a 10.5% increase for the two summer terms. Graduate enrollment in the first summer term is the largest for any single term in the University's history. 620 graduate students have enrolled for the First summer term, a 35% increase over the first summer session last year. WVFN change The general manager of WVFN, Tom Swicegood, announced his resignation at the end of the spring semester. Also announced was . the resignation of Linda Williams as Business Manager. Swicegood is leaving school to take a job with Motorola Corporation. Steve Sox, former Assistant General Manager, was named to replace, Swicegood as provided for in the WVFN constitution. New position UNCC has named Dr. William Alexander Davis, Jr. as Director of Student Health Services effective July 1. He currently holds a similar |X>sition at Davidson (Ollege and has held a private practice in the Davidson-COrnelius area. This is a new position at UNCC. Physicians for the UNCC Health Onter have been provided on a contract basis by the Eastway Clinic. A native of Raleigh, Dr. Davis received his B.S. degree in 1950 from Davidson (Allege and his M.D. in 1956 from Duke University. Dr. Davis has a staff of four nurses at UNCC and will occupy a two-year-old health center, a 22-bed facility with emergency room. X-ray room and laboratory. A: If only life was so simple that being a vegetarian would alleviate anxiety! Whenever I start reading stuff that tells me that my body Is becoming putrlfied, my brain addled and my eyes weakened by everyday run-of-the-mill sorts of activities, I get a little skeptical. I had a hard tirne making sense of the longer excerpt you sent me from your friend s friend, th6 food ffoak. Howevar, there Is Mttle doubt that the average American diet contains more meat than It needs to, and certainly much more in me way of saturated fat then could possibly be healthy. It Is also true that one can get large amounts of protein from vegetable sources and being a vegetarian Is not Incompatible with good health. It Is also not a guarantee of the same. Some recent food fads have reached absurd degrees and are dangerous. For Instance, If one follows the so-called Zen macrobiotic line, you can run a serious chance of vitamin deficiencies and severe malnutrition. In addition, It will not cure you of any Illnesses. Incidentally, the whole thing has nothing to do with Zen Buddhism at all, and has offended the followers of the Zen way. I believe that many people who adhere to dangerous diets have been convinced to do so by seemingly persuasive arguments and claims. The well known stories of food contamination and low nutritive foods that abound fosters belief In the virtues of simple foodstuffs, simply grown. Some people carry such beliefs to extremes and do themselves (and their offspring) damage.

The Commission - composed of two members each from the Student Media Board, the Student Union Board and the Student Government and including three "at large" students have allocated fixed amounts to the Media Baord arkf the Union Baord. The Media Board gets $45,000 and the Union Board gets $65,000. The funds include not only money for next year but money for summer student as well. The overage, which promises to range as high as $30,000, will be used and held by the Student Government. The Media Board and the Union Board still have the perogative to request extra maney from the Student Legislature through regular legislative channels. It is hoped that each agency can work within these amounts and not have to request and extra money. Copycats North Carolina State University has implemented a book exchange not only similar to the one here at UNCC, but identical. In an article published in the NCSU Technician, their student body president, Gus Gusler, announced, ''The organization will recieve 75% of the services after the bills are- paid, which should mean that if we operate along the same lines at UNCC. we should clear $1,4(X) or $1,600..." Our Book Exchange has been operative for several years and has not only made money for students but has provided an alternative' for our own bookstore, notorious for its high prices and low buy-back rates. Our Student Government is to be congratulated for not only helping UNCC students but for implementing a program that is innovative enough to be copied bV arxjther school. Southern Engineering Company of Charlotte has given a $1,500 gift to UNCC at Charlotte for the purchase of books in history. The gift was presented by Leslie G. Berry, company president. Dr. Robert Rieke is compiling a list of needed volumes to be purchased by the Library. 49er Basketball Schedule Morehead State November 27 Bryan College November 29 Marshall December 5 Oklahoma December 9 Atlanta Baptist December 16 Kent State December 20 Atheletes in Action January 4 East Tennessee January 6 Austin Peay January 8 Samford January 11 Tulane January 15 Samford January 18 Georgia State January 20 Austin Peay January 24 Iowa January 27 Tennessee Tech February 1 Appalachain February 3 Southern Mississippi February 5 Tusculum February 10 DePaul February 14 Georgia State February 17 Georgia Tech February 19 Marshall February 22 N.C.
