Page 2 THE SUMMER SCHOOL WEEKLY Friday, June 14, 1SS7 Fhis Little Friend Needs Your Aid Just what are you getting out of college? Here on the. Carolina campus we have students of every type and every walk of life. Most would list their reason for being here as working for a degree or perhaps a job in the not-so-distant future. Some have not yet decided what their goals will be but are here to learn the role of responsibility which will be thrown on their shoulders at graduation. On the other hand, in the midst of these indus trious students looms what is classified up at the University of Maryland as the "comfortable stu dent." One doesn't have to search very much to find this species he can be located anywhere around campus and is easily distinguished by his most outstanding trait, comfort. According to the editor of the Maryland Uni versity newspaper "our friend is the first one back to the house from summer in order to try out all the beds and find the most comfortable one. The cook and he are the best of buddies and he never lacks for between-meal snacks. Also, the house mother is his special friend and excuses all his absences with bright little notes. "Although he studies very little his average is in a comfortable, zone. He is master in the art of deception. His professors think he is a genius and are all fond of him, for by taking good advantage of his time he has managed to worm his way into their personal esteem. "He arranges his life well. He never has classes before 11 or after 2. His business is conducted in a large measure from a prone position on his bed. He manages to spend approximately 18 hours a day in this, his favorite position. "His amorous affairs are conducted admirably. He has plenty of the best quality with no extra effort on his part. His presence seems to be mag netic, and they are drawn to him." The editor goes on to enumerate another out standing characteristic of our friend. When the party starts, there in the midst of the merry making he is found, effervescing in his own inimitable manner. But take a look about when the time comes for clean-up and work. You guessed it, you couldn't even locate him with radar. This type student is majoring in being comfort able at your expense. While you are slaving away carrying out your responsibility to yourself, your parents and to Carolina, he is making the most of his time loafing around campus. Not only does he look bad in the eyes of others, but he can bring down the standards of the Uni versity. There is no easy solution to the problem habits are acquired over a period of years, and chances are our friend began to develop his traits back in grammar school. However, he can be helped. It may take time, but enough conscientious students let him know how they feel, in no uncertain terms, he'll soon take the hint. It may take years to correct these attitudes, but isn't it better to start now before his characteristics rub off on other students? It might be contagious.

This is what Jerry Oppen heimer had to say about having chosen Carolina in the first place and his subsequent activities here. Perhaps Jerry had scholas tics in mind as the greatest sleep robber. But, exclusive of studies, it is easy to see why Jerry may not have spent as much time in the sack as he might have liked. Most of the newcomers to UNC probably know Jerry as the affable young gentleman who welcomed them to the campus as chairman of the Orientation com mittee. But Jerry will be remem bered by the oldtimers for a variety of other activities. Jerry is currently president of the Zeta Beta Tau Fraternity and in the past has held the offices of Treasurer, Rush Chairman and Historian of that organization. For the past two years he has represented his fraternity on the Inter Fraternity Council. He is now chairman of the IFC Court, a post he has held for about two years. Jerry has likewise been active in the Student Government for a number of years. He is Assist ant Attorney General of the Stu dent Body and has represented the University Party in the Stu dent Legislature for about a year. During his career as student legislator, he has been chairman of the very important Finance Committee. In addition to these activities, he has been a member of the Orders of the Golden Fleece, the Holy Grail, the Dance Commit tee, the Audit Board and is presi dent of the Order of the Old Well. Jerry belittles any credit due him for so much work in behalf of the students with the remark that "it is more quantitative than qualitative." But those who know Jerry's contribution to these many organizations are not apt to agree with him on this count. Concerning the Carolina Way of Life, Jerry says: "It's like we tell the freshman: we have the Carolina Way of Life here but you'll have to stay around a few days to know what I mean." Many students here feel that Jerry Oppenheimer represents the Carolina Way of Life. Forest Theater To Be Scene For Playmakers Production By CORT EDWARDS , Elizabethan drama returns to Chapel Hill as the Carolina Play makers plan to present Thomas Dekker's The Shoemaker's Holi day. The play is scheduled for the Forest Theater, July 4 and 5, at 8:30 p.m. Kai Jurgenson will di rect this pleasant comedy with assistance from Stage Manager George Spence and Set Designer Tommy Rezzuto. The Shoemaker's Holiday, which was first presented in 1600 before the Queen, is the humor ous life of Simon Eyre, a shoe maker, and the Lord Mayor of London; and has a romantic sub plot between Rose and Lacy. Lacy, the son of the Earl of Lincoln, is in love with Rose, the daughter of the Lord Mayor. The Earl believes that Rose is be neath his son's station in life and consequently, ships Lacy off to fight a war against the French. Sly Lacy, however, is not fooled by his father's plan and sends his cousin to take his place in the battlefield. Lacy changes his name to Hans and returns to Lon don disguised as a Dutch shoe maker in Simon Eyre's shop, so that he may woo Rose. As a typical Elizabethan comedy, "it presents no problems, it inspires no pity, and it is free from satiric intentions." Socially Speaking By MARY ALYS VOORHEES SOCIAL LIFE at Carolina never has a vaca tionfrom fall to winter to spring to summer, fun continues its romp over the Tar Heel campus. Typical are after-exam jaunts which found UNC students scattered all over North and South Caro lina beaches, celebrating the end of another semes ter at the Hill. Pawley's Island, S.C., residents undoubtedly haven't seen so many men at one time since the Civil War as they did shortly after school was out. As soon as the last finals were over, the Carolina KAs joined KAs from Duke, Wake Forest, State, Davidson and other chapters throughout the Caro linas in "Operation KA" for a few fun-packed days before they headed back to summer school, jobs or just loafing around the hometown. MYRTLE BEACH was making preparations for its Annual Sun Festival when another contingent of Tar Heels arrived to bask in the sun and enjoy the beach facilities. ! After ushering at Lennie Rosenbluth's wedding Sigma Nus Joe Quigg and Pete Brennan journeyed down, only to spend much of their time signing autographs which has become one of their extra curricular activities since winning the NCAA bas ketball championship. Others spotted at the South Carolina beach were Chi Os Mary Rucker and Joy Brown down for the Sun Festival John Ashford who will soon be working on the Charlotte Observer along with UNC coed Jackie Haithcock for the summer and a group of Kappa Sigs on a beach party. Up at Nags Head were another group of Kappa Sigs, in. addition to a party of Zetes. And at Wrightsville Sigma Nus Bill Morgan, Jim Exum and Harold Everett were partying, as were Chi O President Punkin Coe and Pi Phi Sarah Van Wyke.
