NUMBER THIRTEEN
To Be Raped Or Not To Be Raped‘/
M
To be raped or not to be raped .
. That is the question which an
alarmingly growing number of
women in our society today are
faced with. TO BE RAPED OR
NOT TO BE RAPED is also the
title of an upcoming program on
the ACC campus to be presented
by Frederic Storaska on
Tuesday evening, January 28, in
Hardy Alumni Hall at 7:00 P.M.
The program will be brought to
this campus for the second time
in the past several years by five
campus sponsors including the
SGA, the Women's In-
terdormitory Association, the
Campus Awareness and En
tertainment Committees, and
the Social Science Club.
Through this program, Mr.
Storaska will attempt to instill
the audience with an un
derstanding of the cir
cumstances under which an
assault may be constituted as
such. The objective of this
lecture program is also to
prepare women psychologically
and physically for any possible
Inventions of Da Vinci
The inventive genius and
foresight of Leonardo da Vinci,
who conceived of the flying
machine and other
developments that did not take
practical form until modern
times, is depicted in an
exhibition which opened this
week at Atlantic Christian
College.
The exhibition of the 15th
Century artist-scientist's work,
on loan from the IBM Corp.,
includes 19 models built from
Alpha Chi
On Nov. 19, 1974 the ACC
chapter of Alpha Chi National
Honor Fraternity installed 50
new members at their semi
annual induction dinner. The
fraternity was pleased to feature
Dr. Mildred Hartsock, former
chairman of the Atlantic
Christian College English
department as guest speaker.
Those inducted were:
Elvia L Helms, Mary Jo

Leonardo’s scientific and
technical drawings. It will
remain through Feb. 4.
Models in the show include
both practical and theoretical
devices. Among them are a
paddle-wheel ship, an idea that
was not successfully developed
until the advent of steam power
in the 19th Century ; a theoretical
gear system that produced three
speeds of rotation, as in the
modern automobile trans
mission; and a device for
determining the tensile strength
of wire, information essential to
the engineer five centuries ago,
as it is today.
Leonardo was fascinated
with the possibility of human
flight, and devised many
schemes for flying, including
ornithopters — whose principle
support and propulsion comes
from flapping wings. A model of
an ornithopter in the show
follows an early design calling
for a lattice-like wooden frame
work, two movable wings, a
series of ropes and pulleys and a
windlass. This was to be
operated by the flyer, lying
prone in the framework.
Although Leonardo
considered war “a bestial
madness,” he was one of the
leading military engineers of
this time, and made
innumerable sketches for
fortification and weapons.
Models in the show include an
armored tank, in which he
foresaw a type of vehicle not
extensively used until World
War I, and a scaling ladder that
resembles modern fire-fighting
apparatus, but which Leonardo
designed for storming the walls
of an enemy fortress.
As a scientist and engineer,
Leonardo was always concerned
with accuracy and
measurement, and the show
includes models of his designs
for a hygrometer for measuring

The first set of Jiodels of
Leonardo's work corfiructed in
contemporary times ks built in
1938 for an exhibitioBm Milan,
Italy. It traveled Iwefly, and
during World WaB II was*-

in Tokyo. Another!^^^^
models, built in
States after the war, was
acquired by IBM in 1951, and
incorporated into the company's
touring exhibition program. The
models are displayed with
encounter of the future with rape
or assault and the prevention of
both. As a researcher, con
sultant, lecturer, author, and a
national authority on rape and
assaults, Frederic Storaska is
well qualified to give an in
formative presentation on this
subject. His program has five
lecture topics including not only
"The Understanding and
Prevention of Rape and
Assaults, but 'Sex and
Surviving the Dating Game,"
"Assaults on Men, Child Abuse,"
and "The National Organization
for the Prevention of Rap*.* and
Assault."
Mr. Storaska presents this
program to at least one hundred

A number
commitments has brought the
total of gifts to the Atlantic
Christian College Fulfillment
Program to$2,012,095, according
toT. J Hackney Jr., and Bland
W. Worley, general co-chairmen
of the program which began in
the fall of 1972, and is $2,730,000
for capital needs.
“With the current popular
apprehension about the
economic situation, we are
gratified by the confidence in the
viability of our program which
this level of support indicates,"
said Dr. Arthur D. Wenger,
president of the college. In
commenting further, he noted
that in two years the college had
more than doubled its previous
giving for a five-year period for
similar purposes.
Notable among recent new
gifts was one of $5,000 from the
Hillsdale Fund of Greensboro.
Solicitation in the Wilson area
continues under the leadership
of K. D. Kennedy and Vance T.
Forbes. Support from this
division now amounts to
$855,744.
What Else is Money For?
Across from Hardy Alumni
Hall, the Campus Beautification
Committee is using its yearly
funds to extend the brick
common in front of the Student
Center. The extension will have
two planters and will enhance
an area that was particularly
worn down and unattractive. A
landscaping company out of
Raleigh is doing the bricklaying,
and then people of the college
will add the finishing touches.
These finishing touches will
include benches made by the Art
Department and plants from the
Maintenance Department. In the
warmer weather to come, this
area will especially be an asset
for the extra benches and
gathering space it will provide.
The allotment that the
Beautification Committee
receives, varies from year to
year. This year the committee
received about $8,000, and ap
proximately $7,500 of that will be
spent on the brick extension.
This brick extension is a
segment of a long-range
beautification plan designed for
the college by Richard Bell and
Associates of Raleigh. Other
possible projects in this long-
range plan include such things
as replacing asphalt walks, and
extending the brick common
alongside of Harper Hall.
