ttkte wants a cMaecellor, too
By Don Skunk
Special Wing-ding correspondent
It all started with an idea a
rare occurrence at State.
The school could install a chan
cellor and have its own University
Pay. "Shee-it, then we'd be like a
real school and all," observed Billy
Joe Hogcaller, N.C. State student
body president. "It ain't fair.
What'd that Hardin guy do to
deserve all that free food? I mean,
20,000 chicken- drumettes and
25,000 chocolate chip cookies could
feed me, my kissin' cousins and my
pigs for a week."
In protest, Hogcaller organized
his own University Day hoedown.
All the various species at State
including the ducks assembled
behind the main barn and marched
around the pasture waving real big
banners that read, "We want choklit
cookies too," "Yee Haw Agri
kulcher rules!"
The next chancellor was chosen
through a tobacco spitting contest.
Contestants were judged on accu
racy, distance and form. The winner
and new chancellor: Bruce Poultry,
of Deep Gap Windy Hollow Bas
sackwards, N.C. (It's near Ashe
ville.) "Well, shut my mouth and roll
me in momma's grits!" exclaimed
Poultry. "I'm just as happy as a
possum eating dog shit."
Poultry immediately gave an
extemporaneous acceptance
speech. (That means he was just,
like, talkin' no index cards or
nothin!)
"The first thing I'm gonna do in
that there purty office is pick out
a spot for my granddaddy's still. I
don't go nowheres without my
home brew," Poultry said.
"Next I'm gonna get me a date
with one of them bodacious -cheerleaders."
.In keeping with the tradition
established by UNGChancelIor -
Paul Hardin, Poultry sang the '
school song, "Green Acres," to the
crowd. His eyes brimmed with tears
as he sang the line: "Farm livin' is
the life for me."
As his first official duty as ;
chancellor, Poultry used State's' ,
ceremonial plowblade to slice a real -big
cake choklit with a red
plastic tractor on top and served
it up to all the revelers.
Said freshman Bobby Lee Reese
of the afternoon: "The cake, it were
real good. 'Course, I had a time
pickin' the rust pieces from the
plowblade out of my teeth."

Noted Wolfpack alumnus Chris
Washburn today announced the
formation of the N.C. State Insti

Wasting a Year or Two at State.
Washburn, speaking through an
interpreter, said he was really upset
that everybody was so mad at him.
for not doing shit in the NBA after
being so full of potential.
"I really don't think it's fair."
Washburn said. "Just 'cause,
y!know, people give you a million
dollars and shit, they think you
gotta come to practice yTcnow and
play ball and score points and make
the team win. I just wanna have
some fun."

nothing in later life.

"My real life, she was such a sad
farce," observed Sahib Nallamuha

State so he can build hide tents for
his nomad family. "1 would lose
myself in my character, Hanse
Shadowspawn of the world of the
thieves. 1 was so sad, when the dice
she rolled a 'six,' and Hanse died

In Sahib's words: "When first I
came here, it was like the tribes back
home, very hard to break into the
new one. But when I started playing
playing D&D, the loneliness, she
was gone."
Sahib's roommate, Clyde Led
better, agreed: "Boy, he was like a
chicken drowning in a feed trough.
I thought if I heard one more time
about how the admissions office
came to the Punjab looking for
students to fill the dorms, and how
much he liked America and all that
bullwang, I'd beat his ass."
But soon Clyde and Sahib found
they had a common interest in role
playing. "Yeah, well, this week
of those other guys whose names
I forgot already. Man they were
awesome, but then they just didn't
do nothin'." .
Through the institute, Washburn
said he hoped to give washed-up
athletes another chance at sponging
more money from State and its
boosters.
"Shit, after them payments get
cut off, y'know, I know it's hard
on those guys who can't go to
million-dollar guaranteed contracts
in the pros. And even then, y'know,
it's hard, 'cause it's like you gotta
work for the money and shit. It ain't
like school, when you can just wake
up, watch The Price is Right' and
then go shoot hoops for 10 or 20
minutes while Coach V talks about
that lucky shit where Derek shot
and Lo caught it and threw it down
and he won some championship
even though it was kind of a joke."
Washburn said he will use his last
check from whichever NBA team
he rides the pine for now to get the
institute started. And despite the

State's new Cow Palace

By Lisa Lisa
and the Cult Jam
N.C. State marketing director
Jim Vilevaino announced today the
beginning of a drive to replace the
Big Barn and bring a new, modren
coliseum to the school The Cow
Palace.
"rm telliti ya it's .gonna be big, .
real' big. Big, big, big," Vilevaino
said. "Maybe not big enough for
my ego, but pretty doggone big.
"And well have plenty of space
inside to sell Nissans, cookbooks,
Nikes and anything else I can make
a buck off of."
Vilevaino said he may also allow
the basketball team to play in the
new coliseum if they ask him real
nice.
"Lemme tell ya, those are really
some great guys, and if I'm not
working on the days they have
games, 111 be glad to have them
come in here and shoot that rock,"
Vilevaino said. -
"It's gonna be something special,
I'm tellin' ya. It's gonna have a roof
and a floor and goals and a real
electric scoreboard and a big picture
of me on the outside.
"It's gonna be an incredible place.
Itll be loud, stupid people dressed
in red as far as the eye can see. And
those wacky guys from PEST, or
VEST, or LEST, or BEHEST,
whoever the hell they are, I bet
theyll have a great time painting
their faces and forgetting for a few
hours that they're illiterate."
But whatever happens, Jimmy V
said he would be glad to play Dean
Smith, who has won more than
twice as many games as Vilevaino
yet has lost nine less, in his new
spacious barnyard facility.
"Yeah, I can't wait to get old .

want you to play like every night

And they don't pay as good as
Coach V did. He always hooked
us up by giving us good players
some of his endorsement money.
He didn't give shit to the guys who
rode the pine, though. Maybe that's
why so many people just go to
school here for a year or two before
they get pissed off and leave. Coach
V's funny that way, y'know. He like

and be superstars and make lots of
money, but then like only one or
two guys do it, y'know. So then

call early Thursday morning from
a custodian at the veterinary school
who complained of scuffling in the
barnyard animals' pen. When
police arrived, they found Lonnie
Higgins, a sheepish junior from.

sexual act with the mammals.
Higgins was arrested and charged
with sexual harrassment.

man from Hot Springs, was rescued

a call that a girl was trapped in her
car in the poultry science building
parking lot. Officer Rush Taylor,
said when he arrived at the scene,
Calhoun was hysterical over miss
ing her evening class because they
were learning to pluck chickens that
night. Calhoun had forgotten how
to work the door locks. Taylor said
that after he refreshed her memory,
he made a date with Miss Calhoun

boys happen to shoot real well, we
could pull out the 'W'."
Vilevaino said he was very sad
the Pack couldn't play in a big new
palace this season, because he has
once again lined up an incredibly
difficult schedule for his troops.
"What, are you kiddin' me? We're
jjonna have ;.to be ready to play
every night, because on any given
night, any team can beat any other
team," Vilevaino said. "And when
those teams are Columbia, Akron,
Alabama State, Coppin State,
Monmouth, Towson State, Coastal
Carolina and UNC-Asheville, well,
you can see why I'm so worried."
Vilevaino said although he could
easily pile up 20-win seasons with
the schedule he plays, he thought
it was much more fun to just screw
, around for a few months during the
regular season.
"Yeah, I got too much to do
during the regular year," he said.
"I got shows to do, products to sell,
people to meet. I find it's a lot more
fun if the players don't know what's
expected of them and I just play
around with the lineup all year and
make everybody real confused:
"Then when the fellas get it
together and drive through the
tournament and give the illusion
that I can coach, all the fans forget
that I haven't done anything for
three months but sell snake oil."
The press . conference took an
ugly turn when some nosey reporter
asked Vilevaino if any of his players
had ever graduated.
"Hey, how am I supposed to
know about stuff like that," Vile
vaino said. "I'm just here to watch
basketball and make some dough.
I think that Gannon kid probably
graduated, but those other guys,
hey who knows? I'm sure they're
very happy now wherever they are."

Washburn said the institute
could help more than just washed
up basketball players,, though.
"Well help any athlete who needs
some money and a place to hang
out, especially football players. But
I .never heard of anybody who
played football here, so I don't
know who to call. Besides, that
Sheridan guy, he don't pay like

to living hard anyway."
