Tuesday, February 17, 1931Th9 Daily Tar Heel. 3 9, 1 J S .W w' -m f iJ . i:j marc nouTH Staff Writer The current issue of The Cellar Door,? UNCs student literary publication, is a revealing look t what is on the students' minds, as the 1900s grow and' take shape. Associate Editor Jordan Hawley, in his essay "Student Short Fiction: Some Hallowed Opinions on Current Trends," discusses the abundance Of somber and melancholic pieces that are submitted to the magazine for publication and the scarcity of humorous works. The con cerns of the nation and the uncertainty that characterizes the start of this new decade are evident in the writings, yet they stop short of being too cynical. The graphics in the magazine are an eclectic assortment, ranging from Debo rah Hanna's sketch of a nude woman, leaning on a stool to Edward Irvine's soft, glowing impression of a marshy setting. Peter Krogh's overhead photo , graph of a man sleeping beside a trash can is interesting in both its composition of lines and textures and in its social comment. Greg Ingram's series of photographs of a young boy wearing sun glasses and eating a doughnut on Franklin Street capture a certain innocence and comfort that are gratifying. As the reader turns each of three pages, the boy eats more and more, until the Final photograph reveals both a smile and a frosting-covered face. -. v ' The Fiction contributions are similar in their semidefealist attitudes, yet they vary considerably in style. "Mind's Eye," by Raymond Gwaltney, has a dis jointed style that is perfect for its fright ening, jarring theme. The narrative reveals the confused mind of Lucille, a mother of two children, and her encoun- ter with a man who picks her up hitch hiking. As the story progresses, both Lucille and the reader become more and more confused, forcing the reader to react to the Finality of the ending. "Treehquse," by Peter Mallinson, is a revealing look at the importance of friend ship, even among gradeschool children. "Ave Maria," by Sharon Mclntire, "Two People in a Restaurant," by John Ragland, and "The Brass Microscope," by Ernest Youhoyse, all center on various perspectives of the protagonists in the world around them. They all meet with some degree of success, yet the seeming closeness of the stories to their respective authors will make them more meaningful to some readers than others. The poetry selections range along a large gamut of styles and are varied in subject matter and theme. "I swallowed enough trafFic...," by Don Riggs, accur ately reflects the grime and stifling atmosphere which characterizes a certain view of cities. His images, such as "deli cate mists of exhaust" and the "smelling of grease from a cheap grill's garbage," are particularly effective. Lila Hanft's "Letter: To My Ex Lover, A Philosopher" is successful in its portrayal of rejection, the hope that rejection will be reversed and the Final acceptance of defeat. "Infidelity," by Julie Dickerson, is a series of images which suggest its title. It seems to express the concept of in Fidelity better than any dictionary deFinition could, suggesting a sadness as well as a certain beauty. , The other poetry will appeal to -different readers, yet air of the works deserve the reader's attention. The deadline for submission of poetry, Fiction and graphics for the spring issue of The Cellar Door is February 20. Material may be submitted to the office in the Y Building, room 205. Cy FRANCES SILVA Stafr WriJer BUTNER Several UNC students traveled to the Federal Correctional Institute in Butner Thursday to perform for in mates in conjunction with the Black History Month celebrations. BSM Chairperson Mark Canady, who opened the program said that even though all facets of the month could not be explored, he hoped the inmates enjoyed the presentation. Canady told the inmates at the minimum security prison that February had become the traditional month to celebrate black history. "A great injustice to the black people as a race is that you can't attribute all the achievements and accomplishments and the contributions made by blacks to them," he said. "What we are attempting to do here," he said, "is to cele brate the heritage in games, songs and poetry." The program, which featured Jerome Moore reciting poetry, Donna Whitaker 'dancing an original work entitled "Africa" and the BSM Gospel Choir singing three selections, was organized by the National Association of Blacks in Crimi nal Justice. It was part of a week-long celebration that also included performances by groups from North Carolina' Central Univer sity, Shaw University and St. Augustine's. Approximately 75 of the 310 inmates at the predominantly black minimum security prison attended the presentation. Canady said, "Everyone was afraid at First, but, I think it went over very well and we look forward to making it an annual thing. Prison official John Cherry said the inmates appreciated the group's efforts to bring a part of black history to them. "They're always interested in outsiders.... This program is a good gesture by the staff to keep things going," he said. ' Official Larry Richardson said, "It's because of good people like you all that the program works." HI 7u. ' lUt I I 111 tl if 1 I ' Cy ERNIE JOHNSTON Special to Tbe Daily Tar Heel jrih ini liiiiWJ- F(dl' B3mMi'ailici)iiis diae soon Wednesday Feb. 25, is the deadline for students to nominate teachers for one of six faculty awards to be given this semester. All awards are for excellence in undergraduate teaching, English professor Weldon Thorton said. Four of the awards, the Tanner awards, are for quality in teaching freshman and sophomore level courses. The Nicholas Salgo award recognizes a junior or senior level instructor, and the University award is given to a full professor. ( "The awards are important because they give the students an opportunity to say something about the quality of under-, graduate teaching," Thorton said. Thorton's committee has taken out an advertisement in The Daily Tar Heel which tells students how to nominate teachers. To further aid students, the committee had 8,000 ballots printed and then circulated in dorms and prominent places on campus. "I urge students to pick up a ballot, Fill it out and send it in," Thorton said. CATHY RAY After losing to Davidson College in the quarterfinal game of the Region V Games Tournament in Johnson City, Term., Fri day night, the UNC All-Star team came back to win the tourn ament and a bid to play in national competition. The four-member team of captain Blair Haworth, Bruce Graver, Peter Heller and Wynne Dough won the double elimination tournament by defeating nationally ranked David son in two consecutive games, 350-270 and 425-1 10. UNC won its second chance to face Davidson by defeating Wake Forest University in the losers' bracket during the semi finals of the tournament, 350-170. "It was the most satisfying tournament I've ever played in," said Heller, a senior UNC mathematics major who was on last year's team with Graver. "I have never been so emotionally charged for a game. "The team showed signs of slipping early in the evening when it played Davidson for the first time and lost 380-290. The game was marred by sluggish responses and penalties For incorrect answers." Known as "The Varsity Sport of the Mind," the college bowl consists of speed and knowledge. It is played by signaling on an electronic lockout system and answering 10-point toss up questions. If a player signals before the question is finished and answers incorrectly, the team is penalized five points. If the toss-up is answered correctly, the team is given a chance to . answer a bonus question for a stated number of points. The UNC College Bowl team now goes on to national com petition at Marshall University, in Huntington, W.Va. The tournament will be held March 18-24. There will be 24 teams in the tournament, including such teams as: Davidson, Stanford, MIT and Purdue. The tournament will be broadcast nationally by CBS Radio, sponsor of the College Bowl series. UNCs College Bowl team won $750 in 1920 national com petition. The money was donated to the UNC Scholarship Fund.

Part of a committee brochure states: "Nuttle's editorial must not be passed off as an aberration, a horrible 'mistake' which will never happen again.... The South End has engaged in other racist apologia, heavily laced with red baiting and slander." Nuttle said committee members were trying to force the paper to conform to their beliefs. "If I say something against their opinions, I'm a racist," he said. The committee has distorted the facts and exaggerated the interest students have in the issue, he said. "I haven't seen many outraged .11 jiuutiHj at au. - i i -w - 0 "The students couldnt c&re'U&s ' NUrikilidP 1 Ji, I . SI if Wcdhcsday"Fcb 10 Ghouina ct 7 P.H.
