4 -The Daily Tar HeelTuesday, October 14, 1980 t, r 1.1. v . Cy KEVIN HICKS Siiff W riter When was Sherlock Holmes actually born? Did he attend Oxford or Cambridge? Did he really snort cocaine? Was Watson actually a woman in drag? UNC Sherlockians gathered recently to form an organization to answer these and other questions about the famous detective creation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, The new club is the brainchild of freshman Martin Brock, who got the idea from the famous London-based Baker Street Irregulars. "It's an interest I've had for some time," Brock said. "There are so many social vacuums here that I decided to build an organization of my own." The small group that assembled earlier this month seemed to agree on one thing in particular the need for this kind of club. "I was very much involved in reading the stories and higher criticisms of them a few years ago," senior Margaret Miles said. "This kind of thing will revive my interest." Another student, Tom Buske, said, "I've only read a little bit, but it has entranced me, and this would be, the perfect opportunity to read more, because you've obviously got to be well read to be in this group." "The whole organization will be basically tongue-in-cheek," Brock said. "That's half the fun of it. The Baker Street Irregulars have a thesis that Sherlock Holmes actually existed, so they are more serious." Brock is in the process of petitioning the Office of Student Affairs for official recognition of the club as a student organization, but, he said, a faculty sponsor is still needed. The club also needs to come up with a unique name, not an easy task, since the majority of ideas have already been taken by other groups. Chapel Hill's local scion, Grimpen Mires (taken from the text of The Hound of the Baskervilles), has offered to take the UNC club under its wing and give it a base. It has about 15 active 7 , x m m r- I x rr J members. "We're just townspeople meeting once a month to talk," spokesman Alan Hall said. "Our club's generally designed to keep alive the memory and the methods of the Master." He stressed the M. "Our club's really open to anyone with an honest interest in Sherlock Holmes,'? Hall said. "If a UNC group forms, we would like to affiliate with them, or them with us. We're not a closed group. We're always looking for new blood." The UNC club's next meeting will be Oct. 25. For details, call Martin Brock at 933-2866. "Most of all, we're just friends who are going to get together about once a month and talk," Brock said. 1 fP) t; y. GpetligMo pre aaiUyemriaiay Cy DONNA WIHTAKER Staff Writer The UNC Department of Dramatic Art's production of Am a Camera based on Christopher Isherwood's Berlin Stories emphasizes acting over scenery and costuming. 11 y The final performance of the play that was the basis for the musical Cabaret is at 8 p.m. today in 06 Graham Memorial. Am a Camera is set entirely in a room of a boarding house in Berlin in the 1930s. Christopher Isherwood, played by Michael Cumpty, rents a room so that he can write a novel. Isherwood is an English romantic who gets caught up in the wild, yet perturbing world of pre-Nazi Germany. He finds it hard to divorce himself from it so he can write about it. Isherwood becomes involved with Sally Bowles, a flightly English free spirit who seeks adventure wherever she can find it. Bowles, . played by Dolly Hall, bewilders the other characters with her conflicting advice and her nonchalant attitude about life. Fritz Wendel, played by Matt Clayton, is a German gigolo who falls in love with Natalia Landauer, a young Jewish woman played by Megan MacKnee. Wendel hides his Jewish origins in fear oC the Nazis, only to discover that to keep his secret would cause him to lose his love. Peggy Roeshler provides much of the play's comedy as Fraulein Scheider, a jolly widow who runs the boarding house. Also good are Ricky Lee Harrell who portrays a hedonistic American milionaire, and Ellen Summers who plays Sally Bowles' snobby and sophisticated mother. The cast worked well together under the smooth direction of Dan Scuro. German and English accents blend nicely together and the acting is always believable. . your v iK - - ! m m D1J ULMU cr a HEBE'S MOnE IM YOUR Li V a knsL "ON CAMPUS" HE DEMOCRATIC PARTY WANTS YOU TO KNOW HOW TO GET AN ABSENTEE BALLOT If you arc registered to vote outside of Orange County but won't be able to get home on Tuesday, November 4, you need to get an absentee ballot.

"The two-fold purpose of the program is to inform minority students of (UNC's) minority culture and to let the students know we are concerned, and that we'd like to have them here to strengthen and enhance minority presence on the UNC campus. The University does very little to reach out to minority students," BSM Chairperson Mark Canady said.' Through the program, BSxM members volunteer to visit high . schools in their hometowns during vacations, breaks and free time to speak to minority students about attending Carolina. Canady said in addition to speaking to interested minority high school students, the BSM hoped to schedule programs for high schools in the state. These programs would include presentations by black culture groups like the Opeyo Dancers and the BSM Gospel Choir. "The major goal of the program is to better inform prospective high school students, to entice the Qualified high school students to come to UNC and to make them aware of the presence of minority culture that exists here," Canady said. Several major universities in the nation have programs to reach qualified cc'Iege-bound minority students, and Carolina is losing many students who choose colleges and universities that have made personal contacts with them, he said. BSM volunteers also will call minority students after they have been accepted and answer questions about the University, The cost of the recruitment program will be minimal, since the BSM is working with the UNC Admissions Office on the project so that volunteers can travel with the UNC admissions representative when he visits high schools, Canady said. Herbert L. Davis, assistant director of undergraduate issions, said he was optimistic about the new program. "I think it's an excellent idea and I think a lot of good things can come out of it," he said. He said he was pleased with the trial run of the recruiting project when Pauline McNeill, a UNC junior, visited a high school with Davis. "She was received well and was able to reach some areas, as a student, which I could not," he said. Public service announcements must be turned in at the box outside the DTH offices in the Carolina Union by 1 p.m. if they are to run the next day. Each item will be run at least twice.
