A state-of-the-art stereo fills the room
with intense guitar playing, screams and
wails as Jim Morrison croons, "Come
on. Baby, light my fire." Paul Foreman
Hips over the cassette tape and continues
listening.
A freshman art major from Elizabeth
City, Foreman has been a Doors fan
since he was II. He said his taste for
'60s music had begun when his uncle,
then in his early 30s. had taken him
to rock concerts.
The fascination continues. Foreman
boasts an impressive collection of Doors
posters, albums, tapes and books that
decorate his Mangum dorm room.
"It just kind of hits you in the face,"
said Arthur McPherson, a freshman
business major from Elizabeth City.
"That's all he's got up in the room except
for one Dead poster."
Nick Street, a sophomore computer
science major from Gastonia, said he
was surprised when he first saw the
collection, which Foreman accumu
lated from record and book stores from
Atlanta to Virginia. "I was amazed at
all of the Jim Morrison paraphernalia
and books," Street said.
Morrison reaches out his arms in a
black-and-white silkscreen banner
hanging above Foreman's desk. Other
Doors pictures and posters plaster the
walls and cover the refrigerator.

Foreman said this was his favorite,
explaining that he too was a laid-back
kind of guy.
Yet Morrison's rebellious personality
also attracts the freshman Phi Gamma

"He never copped out," Foreman
said. "If he had something to say, he
would say it."
Lyrics from "The End" suggest that
Morrison's parents should be dead.
"Maybe it's weird that he wanted his
parents dead, but he never tried to kill
them or anything," said Foreman,
whose favorite song is "L.A. Woman."

Assistant Features Editor
Well I Miss Beverly Home Price
have become aware of recent publicity
concerning myself and I think some
clarificiation is due. Life is controlled
by two factors reality and illusion.
Some people just cling to reality for they
are too afraid of illusion. In order to
understand Miss Price you must open
your eyes to the world of illusion, for
I gracefully walk the line between the
world of reality and the one of illusion.
The intention of these personals is not
one of communication between my
friends but one which may open doors
to people on campus to see reality
and illusion hit head-on!
"Well I Miss Beverly Home Price":
words that appear in Thursday's DTH
personals and create campus-wide
curiousity.
Who is this mystery woman?
Beverly Home Price is an unmarried
("unfortunately") green-eyed brunet
with size-1 1 shoes and a double-digit
dress size.
And, according to her Cousin Butch,
"she looks like a million dollars done
on a budget of $3.95."
Price is not a student. She sings and
performs public readings. Her favorite
color is electric blue, and she's allergic
to seafood. She likes nice men with good
hearts.
All good and well, but who is she?
She is the main character in a
personals soap opera that began "back
when Bibles were eight-page pam
phlets," again according to Butch.
It all started with personals signed
by the Queen Mother. They lasted
about two years, until what apparently
was an editorial decision to stop the

entries because they were too risque.
Years later, after things quieted down,
Miss Saphire Oliva Johnson appeared
in the personals every Thursday for
three years. When she graduated, Miss
Beverly Home Price decided to write.
She was followed by Tyrell Price,
Aunt Mildred and Cousin Butch.
"Miss Saphire is now in Charlotte,"
Price said, "on the corner of Main and
32nd."
Cousin Butch added, "The Queen
Mother is doing whatever it is that
royalty does in Durham."
The other family members are scat
tered all over the country. Aunt Mildred
Home lives quite happily on a stud farm
in Malibu, Calif. Sister Philomena is
a nurse at a home for the terminally
bewildered in Mentor, Ohio. Grandma
Home is buried, although no one seems
to remember just where. And most of
the rest of the family is in Chapel Hill.
Imposters do try to penetrate the
family line.
"Sister Sinful seems like a dear sort,".
Cousin Butch said, "but whoever this
Grandma Home imposter is, she's just
really pulling the habit over Sister
Sinful's eyes.
"We watched Grandma Home get
wiped out by a bakery truck, and there .
wasn't even enough of her left to have
an open casket at the funeral."
Price spends about $6 a week on
personals, Aunt Mildred spends $5, and
Cousin Butch, who used to spend $2,
averages $6. The total for all family
members is about $300 a year.
The family saga will continue, depend
ing on what adventures Miss Beverly
has during the week. There's a rumor
that Saphire might return in December,
and Miss Beverly just might be preg
nant. It's a little hard to tell, though.
Fine, but WHO is she?
Well, she's not telling yet, although
she might reveal her identity at the end
of next semester.
"People follow the personals because
they enjoy it, and it's fun," she said.
"I write them because I want people
to open their eyes to see that people
can be different.
"I want peole to think, 'Is this person
for real?' " Miss Beverly Home Price
said.
And, reality or illusion, she's still the
most controversial personal around.
