Postmodern performer to blend By BETH BUFFINGTON Sty Writer A unique art form mixing theater aspects with dance move ments and text is coming to Durham Thursday night. 'Blondell Cummings, a postmodern dancer and an actress based in New York, will perform "An Evening With Blondell Cummings: Excerpts from Experts." After her one-hour performance, Cummings will return to the stage for an informal question and answer session with the audience. "I think that it (the post performance discussion) is important Volleyball loses thiree-houir heairtbireakeir to Blue Devils By DOUG HOOGERVORST Staff Writer -The North Carolina and Duke volleyball teams squared off Tuesday night in Carmichael Auditorium in the first of their two match-ups this season. In a three-hour, fourteen minute marathon, the Blue Devils squeezed out a five-set thriller, 15-10, 14-16, 15-12, 10-15, 15-13. What was expected to be a close match by Tar Heel coach Peggy Bradley-Doppes was not a disap , pointment for the fans, but it was for Bradley-Doppes. "I was very displeased with our performance," she said. "There was a lot of indecision, You take it,' '111 take it,' 'No, I dont want it.' Duke is a very good team, and they deserve a lot of credit, but I wouldn't be honest with you if I said we played to what I expected." Indecision cost UNC several times, but none more critical than in game five, with the score 13-12, Tar Heels. Duke made a weak return for what should have been an easy play for UNC. However, no one played the ball, and it dropped for the tying point. The Blue Devils' Mary Shean followed with two consecutive aces for the 15-13 win and 3-2 victory. Serious about sports? Then UNC sports clubs could be the answer By LISA SYICEGOOD Staff Writer -You're the average Joe Stud on campus. You know who you are. You played high school football and, hey, you were pretty darn good. Lettered for three years. Yet those recruitment letters from the Barry Switzers, Danny Fords and Bobby Bowdens were hardly overflowing your mail box. Think your football career is over? -Or maybe you're the outdoorsy type. You know, you hike for 10 miles up a mountain to get in tune with nature and to enjoy the lovely foliage. But is this impossible at UNC? Or perhaps your love is sailing across blue waters in your catamaran. Is this only a dream here at Chapel Hill? The answers to these questions are no, no and no. At UNC, all this and more is available to students and faculty through the UNC club sports program, which currently includes 25 sport clubs ranging from baseball to water polo, kung fu to ice hockey. . Club sports are student-initiated, and they are administered through the physical education department. They are financed largely through student fees, in addition to club dues and students' own money. The Club Sports Program is hold ing its annual membership drive today in the Pit from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. . u We want people to come out to see faces and associate them with the clubs," said Jeremy Kelly, president U.S. hoops squad, boxer gain sweet reveoge in Olympics From Associated Pros reports SEOUL, South Korea The U.S. basketball team and boxer Michael Carbajal both got even Wednesday, even as America began to assert itself at the Seoul Olympics. The American men scored a 102 87 victory over Brazil, which had sent shock waves through America last year by winning the basketball title in the Pan American Games with a stunning upset of the United States. Carbajal, meanwhile, moved the U.S. boxing team another step from oblivion with a victory over a South Korean who beat him last year in a dual meet in Seoul. The Soviets won five medals Tuesday, four gold, to run their leading total to 1 1, including six gold. China has seven medals, one gold, and Bulgaria has six, three gold. The United States was fourth with five rfcedals, two gold. Meanwhile, Said Aouita of because a lot of times, people have questions especially with this type of art form," said Kathy Silbiger, coordinator of programs and admin istration at the Duke University Institute of the Arts. "The session will allow the audience to . . . get an in-depth feeling of what the artist is trying to do," she said. Cummings' performance will be the first solo performance in the "New Directions" series presented by the Institute of the Arts. " 'New Directions' is a series of solo artists who are doing interesting things in their own non-traditional art Sports Sophomore Liz Berg led the Tar Heels in both kills and digs, but senior Andrea Wells followed close behind. Berg tallied 25 kills and 20 digs, and Wells had 21 and 18, respectively. Sophomore Susan Andrews had a good night at the net, with seven block assists and two solo blocks. North Carolina now owns a 6-2 record. Duke improved to 6-1. With the score knotted at 44 in the fifth game, Duke strung together a four-point run behind the serve of Sylvia Thompson. Thompson, a 6-foot-3 junior, had been a headache for the Tar Heels at the net all night, but it was her serve that was dam aging here. The Blue Devils extended their lead to 9-4 when UNC's Sharon German dinked into the net. The Tar Heels were not going to let Duke run away with the game. Behind Wells, UNC mounted a comeback at 11-6. The 5-7 junior cannoned a set into the Duke back row, not to be returned. The next ball Wells dinked to make the score 11 8, forcing a Duke timeout. UNC and Duke traded serves 13 times, until Wells again took charge. On a pretty Sherri Vogel set, Wells hammered a winner through a Blue of the Sport's Club Council. "This is a great opportunity for students to get involved." While the focus of each club varies, most are involved in a combination of instruction, recreation and com petition, and one need not be a great athlete to join a club, Kelly said. "The social aspect is a big part of it," he said. For the first time this year, the Sports Club Council has a full-time administrator, Rick Satterlee. As the Assistant Director for Club Sports, Satterlee serves as an advisor to the council while students make the decisions. "The students really carry the torch for it," he said. Satterlee said that more than 2,000 students are involved in club sports. Many of them are students who played a varsity sport in high school and wanted to organize their own teams. "I see a tremendous need for it," he added. Club sports, however, are separate from the intramural program. Club teams represent UNC in collegiate competition and even don UNC uniforms. Some of them, such as the women's club soccer team, even compete against collegiate junior varsity and varsity teams. Not all clubs are competitive, though. Clubs such as the Outing Club are purely recreational. This club, which boasts of around 130 members, offers a variety of outdoor activities, such as camping, cross-country skiing and hang gliding. Morocco sent ripples of disbelief through the world of track and field. It appears he may try for an Olympic triple in the 800, 1,500 and 5,000 even though the two longer races will be run 20 minutes apart on the next-to-last day of the games. Aouita holds the 1,500 and 5,000 meters world records. Greg Louganis of Boca Raton, Fla.; five stitches still in his head from a rare blown dive the day before, won the springboard Tuesday, launching himself toward an unprecedented double-double. Louganis bounced back from a botched qualifying dive in which he hit his head on the board and spun into the water. Heading into next week's platform event, Louganis now is pointing towards a second straight sweep, something no other diver ever has done in an Olympics. In the pool Wednesday, the U.S. water polo team kept the surge going forms," Silbiger said. She added that local art series usually consist of either all dancers or all musicians. "There's really nowhere else in the Triangle area for this type of thing. This is a series for people who are willing to take a chance with performers who they may or may not have heard of." Along with Cummings, the series will feature two other solo artists. David Van Tieghem, a percussionist, composer and cross-over artist, will perform Oct. 31, and Kathy Rose, a filmmaker and choreographer who dances to her own animated films, will perform Dec. 5. Devil block for the side-out. Wells' encore was a well-placed ball in the back left of the court to close the gap to two. Duke's Stross nailed a set wide to make the margain one, and Duke called time again. The Tar Heels would not be denied the tie, and they earned it with a combination Wells Andrews block of Shean. Again the teams traded serve a number of times, but Duke ended the Tar Heels' five-point string on a Hopkins kill. Berg immediately regained the serve for UNC with a kill and served the Tar Heels into the lead. Duke misplayed the tough, Berg serve to tie the game at 12-12 but controlled the next serve and set up Hopkins for the kill. However, Wells was there for the dig and return. Again, Duke set up Hopkins, but Andrews made the solo block for the 13-12 advantage. At this point, UNC lost their senior setter Sherri Vogel to a mysterious knee injury. With UNC on serve, Vogel fell to the ground holding her left knee. The extent of the injury was not known, but the game continued with Duke serving out to win. "We really offer anything that pertains to the outdoors," said Ben Fitzhugh, the club's president. "We have a lot of fun, and we try to gear things around this." Members of the Outing Club have access to a wide variety of equipment, such as windsurfers and cook stoves. In October, the club will participate in the Morganton Intercollegiate Canoe Races. Of course, a popular fall club sport is football. President Ken Griffin said the club has about 25 members, but they would like to have more show up for their twice-a-week practices. "Many of our players could probably have played at small colleges," he said. The team, called the "Tar Mothers," is currently 1-1 and will travel to Davidson College this weekend. If you're more serious-minded, the crew team may be for you. "You can pick it up, but it takes a lot of dedication," said Sam Wheeler, president of the men's team. And no wonder the team holds- some practices at six in the morning. "You can't miss practice," Wheeler said, because crewing is a sport where members are "so dependent on one another." The team will compete in a "Head Races" regatta in Knoxville Oct. 29 and in Atlanta the following weekend. So, UNC students, you really have no excuse. Drag yourself off your couch, put down that Bud Light and dust off your tennis racket or frisbee. Your athletic career has just begun! with a 7-6 victory over defending champion Yugoslavia. It was a victory for America's littlest boxer when Carbajal, of Phoenix, Ariz., defeated Oh Kwang soo of South Korea 3-2 in a 106 pound matchup, for the United States' second straight boxing victory. Kenneth Gould advanced on Tues day in the 147-pound division after two stunning U.S. losses a first round knockout of Kelcie Banks and the loss by walkover of Anthony Hembrick. The U.S. basketball team com pleted a relatively strong day for America at the Olympics. Going to a seldom used weapon, the three point goal, the U.S. team beat Canada 76-70 for its second straight victory. Hersey Hawkins led the way with 13 points. dance, theater and "We chose to feature three artists who had some accomplishments and who were good exemplifiers of art and people who would meet the session requirements of the series," she said. Although the series was a new project for the Institute, Silbiger said she hopes it will become an annual event. Cummings' visit is being cospon sored by the Duke Women's Studies Program and the Mary Lou Williams Center. An original member of Meredith Monk's ensemble, Cummings made her debut in 1969 in "The House in Tunkafunkabilly' band to By JULIE OLSON Staff Writer "Feelings you just can't push away" are apt lyrics for the band Fetchm' Bones. The band, which is well known for its energetic live shows, will be playing Wednesday night at the Brewery in Raleigh. Last October, Fetchin' Bones released its third album, Galaxy 500, which was its second on the Capitol record label. "Being on a major record company label hasn't changed us as a band. We still have complete creative control with our work," said vocalist Hope Nicholls. "We've just learned more and more about the music business because there's so much more to learn from the major labels than the smaller independent companies." A new record is in the makes, although the group has just recently begun writing songs for it.

Among her list of accomplish ments, Cummings has appeared in Philip Glass' "The Photographer release played on WXYC last spring, a remake of "She's a Freak," but that song might not be on the group's next album. The Charlotte-based band is one of the many N.C. bands gaining national recognition. Errol Stewart, guitarist with the band for the past year, explained that its status outside North Carolina depends on the area. "New York, Chicago, L.A, they're great; but in between it's sporadically great. There are a lot of places that we just haven't toured, but we are planning on it. We're finally starting to get solid in certain parts of the country," he said. But being with Capitol has, helped them in that respect, Nicholls said.

N.C. native Don Dixon produced Galaxy 500, but for the next album the band is looking to get closer to its live sound. "Some things work well on records, but recordings sometimes sound so compressed," Stewart said. "Energy-wise we had a lot of tension but none of the release that we have live. We practically build up to explosions in our live shows and especially now, because we have a good grasp and feel of our material." Fetchin' Bones isn't your typical rock 'n' roll band, whatever a typical band might be. Often labeled "punk afunkabilly" by the critics, Stewart admits the band does follow some what in the punk "tradition." He laughed. "It's almost passe to say that it dates us!"
