In Chapel Hill, one never has to
venture far in order to find evidence
of diverse means of self-expression.
Members of the UNC art department
faculty are now showcasing the results
of their latest creative energies at the
Ackland Art Museum. The annual
"UNC Faculty Exhibition" opened last
weekend in the Ackland Main Gallery
and will continue through Sept. 29.
The exhibit includes a selection of
works in various media: paintings,
ceramics, sculptures, prints and draw
ings. This year's show exhibits works
by faculty members Robert Barnard,
James Gadson, Beth Grabowski,
Richard Kinnaird, Jerry Noe, Richard
Shiff, Xavier Toubes, and Dennis
Zaborowski. In addition, Mark Lere,
a native of Los Angeles and a visiting
artist for the fall semester, is showing
two large-scale drawings and Mary
Jones, who will be the art department's
visiting artist next spring, has one
painting in the show.
Beth Grabowski, who is the newest
member of the art faculty, has three
large-scale pastels with a related theme
and color scheme on display. Gra
bowski, who will teach print-making at
UNC, graduated from the University of
Virginia but also spent time at the
University of Wisconsin in Madison. In
Wisconsin, she was impressed by the
myriad construction sites around her.
"Corral," "Confrontation at Home" and
"Back Porch" contain images of holes
in the ground, barriers and ropes which
reflect specific personal crises she was
going through while working on them.
"As narrative art, I like my art to
be able to relate to people and mean
something personal to them," Gra
bowski said. The bright colors she uses

If you're looking for something to do
this weekend, you might consult the
Fun Book: Chapel Hill and Beyond.
Written by three Chapel Hill Day
Care Center board members, the
alphabetically indexed book describes
artshows, museums, botanical gardens,
beaches, music festivals, bookstores and
other activities in Chapel Hill and
elsewhere in North Carolina.
"There are a lot of resources here that
people just don't know about," says
Rachel Willis. She, Judith Warner and
Mary Thompson wrote the book to
improve this situation and to raise funds
for the day care center.
Their goal was to "organize a fund
raiser in a community thriving with
Funding
for the benefit of the DTH creates the
posibility of censorship by (Arrington),"
and was therefore a violation of the
paper's constitutional rights.
While admitting that Arrington had
a right as a taxpayer to challenge the
possible unconstitutionality of a state
run University spending money to
support the DTH, the judgment said ,
he did not clearly show that his first
amendment rights had been violated by
the University's actions.
"Although (the DTH) advocates
positions on various matters, (its
position) speaks only for those which
control content at any given time," the
judgment states. "It does not speak on
behalf of a group with which (Arrington
is) identified with, i.e. the student body.
"Rather, it provides a forum for those
who operate it to express their views.
The positions advocated in the DTH
are no more permanent than the brief
tenure of its editors and writers."
The Court also ruled that Arlington's
rights to free speech had not been
drowned out by the DTH since the
paper invited contrary opinion and

create an eerie, fluorescent effect that
vibrates in front of the eye. "Colors
mean seduction to me, and that's not
necessarily a negative term," she said.
Dennis Zaborowski, a Yale graduate,
has been at UNC since 1968. Two of
his charcoal-and-colored-chalk draw
ings, "The Young Suitor" and "The
Earnest Seeker (The Two Dimensional
Man)," are on display at the Ackland.
Zaborowski's work deals with interac
tion among individuals, and he said that
the figures in the two drawings "have
certain psychological meanings to each
other."
"I begin drawing without any image
or preconceived ideas, but all of my
drawings deal with relationships," he
said.
In addition to the two drawings in
the faculty exhibit, Zaborowski has
several related drawings on display in
the Hanes Art Center.
Xavier Toubes recently returned
from his native Spain, where he had
a one-man exhibit of his works. Lately,
he has been working on several series
which he says are not completed yet.
"Exquisite Nomads," a collection of
ceramic sculptures of heads, and "It has
not a definite color," a collection of both
paintings and ceramics, are the two
Toubes' series on display at the Ack
land. Of the latter series, Toubes
explains, "The description of color is
never very specific. (Colors) kind of
intermingle."
There will be an opportunity for
everyone to learn more about these
artists and their work Brief gallery talks
have been arranged in conjunction with
the "UNC Faculty Exhibition." Gra
bowski will discuss her work on Sept.
17 at 12:15 p.m. in the Ackland.
Zaborowski and Toubes will speak at
the same time Sept. 25.
good causes," Willis says. The authors
plan to revise the book annually as a
perpetual fund-raiser.
"I don't consider it a kids' book,"
Willis says. "There are things in it that
I used to do when I was in college."
The writers describe most of the
entries in a paragraph or two. The 108
page guide includes maps and
photographs.
Because there are over 200 entries in
the book, it took the authors five
months to complete the publication.
They recommend the book to newco
mers and long-time area residents.
"People who have lived here for 30
or 40 years have called and said that
they have learned new things from the
book," Willis says.

comment. Also, since Arrington was
not a member of any group for which
the DTH speaks, the court ruled that
the editorial positions of the D TH were
not forced on him.
The judgment concludes: "For rea
sons . . . stated, it is concluded that the
practice of supporting the DTH with
funds derived from mandatory student
fees and by providing University
facilities free of charge violates no rights
of (Arrington) guaranteed by the first
and fourteenth ammendments."
The next attempt to halt funding of
the DTHczmt in 1982, when Richard
J. Kania and three others disagreed with
editorial positions of the DTH; the
judgment does not state which positions
they disagreed with.
Kania simply stated that his own
beliefs ran counter to the opinions of
the DTH and that he could not agree
with those positions by choice.
The Court ruled that since Kania
failed to find any other legal precedents
overriding the Arrington case, the
decision of that case would stand in
Kama's situation.

If this fund-raising effort succeeds,
the Chapel Hill Day Care Center will
benefit. Enrollment has nearly doubled
since the center opened in 1969. Money
earned by the Fun Book will help
sustain this growth.
Mary Morris, director of the center,
says Chapel Hill Day Care Center is
"different from other centers in its staff
development, thorough lesson plans
and interest groups." The interest
groups let the children enjoy art and
music with their pre-school instruction.
Chapel Hill Day Care Center is one
of 12 Level II centers in Chapel Hill.
Level II is the highest state rating
available.
Support for the center comes from
government sources, private donations
and tuition fees. The Chapel Hill Service
league and the United Church of Christ
have ; given significant support on the
local level. The Fun Book is' the sixth
fund-raiser established by the center.
The Fun Book costs $6 and is
available in area bookshops.

Emerson has a beard and combed hair.
Instead of a suit as white as a Tom
Sawyer whitewashing job, Emerson
wears a suit of many colors. Instead
of cigars, he has books.
But he sits in the chair like Twain
might have sat, telling how a down-on-his-luck
riverboat pilot "sivilized"
himself into one of America's greatest
authors.
Emerson wrote a book by the name
of The Authentic Mark Twain; but that
ain't no matter. He wrote many books,
mostly about Puritan folks like John
Cotton and John Milton, but he said
he always was interested in Mark
Twain, darn tooting.
Emerson is much sivilized, too. He
taught at the University of Massachu
setts for 18 years before coming to the
UNC English department in 1983.
Emerson, he traveled a lot, like
Twain. He's been traveling so much,
speaking in Germany about Huck Finn,
you'd think he and Twain would meet
which can't never be, seeing that Mr.
Clemens is dead.
Emerson said Samuel Clemens did
not plan to be a great author during
his adolescent years.
"He was a riverboat captain, fum
bling "around," heL said. : "He ', was just
figuring out what to do."
So why did Clemens choose the name
of Mark Twain when writing stories for
the Virginia City (Nev.) Enterprise,

when he already had such a good one?
Emerson said almost all writers had a
pen name one reporter even called
himself Petroleum V. Nasby and
Clemens chose Mark Twain because it
meant "two fathoms deep," the depth
of the Mississippi River.
This name caused a heap of confusion
for Clemen's daughter during a river
boat trip. "(She) said, 'they're yelling
your name all over the boat!" Emerson
said. "She didn't know."
Clemens fetched himself a big rep
utation with Innocents Abroad in 1869.
"It made money," Emerson said. "All
books published before made zero."
Clemens married, moved to Hart
ford, Conn., and wrote some more
books.
Pretty soon he wrote The Adventures
of Tom Sawyer in 1876, followed by
The Adventures of Huck Finn in 1885.
Emerson said Twain liked Huck more
than Tom.
"Tom was something like Twain was
as a boy," Emerson said. "He'd become
a part of proper society. You knew
Huck was never going to do that."
Their adventures didn't end at Aunt
Sally's house. Tom, Huck and Jim
traveled around Africa in Tom Sawyer
Abroad,-, published in a children's
magazine. "Wonderful conversations,"
Emerson said, "but the plot is nothing."
Emerson said Twain wrote a story
about Huck and Tom in old age the

only work destroyed. "They came back
(to St. Petersburg) sour and bitter," he
said. They saw the world and didn't
like it."
Twain traveled to Europe when
writing A Tramp Abroad, but the book
. didnt turn out well, Emerson said; "The
book .wouldn't set written. It was the
result of perspiration, not inspiration."
So Clemens went through some
despair in his last 20 years, and Emerson
said his writing suffered.
