Art Exhibition at Gallery
by Catherine Edwards
The Case Art Gallery is
.Ditently showing the pastern
'inrth Carolina Regional Schol-
Art Awards Exhibition for
|oso The forty-six counties
ffnresenied provide an insight
Jo the local work being initi-
jied at the classroom levels.
Ijese classroom levels have
divided into two groups.
Group 1, junior high, is grades 7
tbrough 9 and group 2, senior
high is grades 10 through 12
ad is being judged seperately.
The individual teachers chose
tie original works that were
sent to the regional contest.
This year 1,100 entries were
tttwed. The chosen judges
were selected because they are
educators and artists and have
an understanding of art at a
secondary’ level. This year the
judges selected one out of every
ten entries for the exhibit.
Norbert Irvine, a professor of art
at A.C.C. and director of the
Eastern Regional Exhibit, ex
pressed his opinion that the
works .lot chosen for this exhibit
were as good as the art selected
for the exhibition. This indicates
the difficulty that the judges had
in making a final decision and
also describes the high quality
of work on exhibit at the A.C.C.
gallery.
The art work that is on
exhibit, until February 15, 1980,
represents winners of the Gold
Key and are the show finalists.
The artists actually receive an
engraved gold key which is to be
presented to them by their
respective school principals.
The regional sponsors will then
send the finalists to the national
headquarters at Scholastic Mag
azines to be judged for the
national awards. Last year.
North Carolina received four
percent of the presented Nat
ional Awards. One student artist
representing North Carolina,
received an art scholarship to
Pratt, New York, and Phoenix
school of Design through the
Scholastic Art Awards.
Following this exhibit the
certificate winners for the Hon
orable Mention work will be on
exhibit from February 18th
through February 29th. The
goal of the contest, is to en
courage students through the
recognition they receive at the
local and national levels. The
local regional sponsor for the
show is WITN-TV, Channel 7.
WITN in conjuntion with A.C.C.
has sponsored the show for the
past two years. Mr. Irvine
stated that, “the exhibit dem
onstrates that good art teaching
is being done not only in the
larger cities, but in small com
munities as well. In addition.
Eastern North Carolina young
artists can hold their own
against other regions as well as
on the national level,”
I strongly suggest that every
one should visit this exhibit as
others are doing concurrently in
fifty-seven regions across the
United States. The work pre
sented is refreshingly original,
representive of the local com
munities and offers an excellent
chance to view new talent on its
way to New York's national
judging.
Pledges make a Match
by Amy Wagner
A crowd of pleasure seeking
students gathered in the Old
Gym on Tuesday, January 29 tor
the second annual Phi Mu
Dating Game, sponsored by the
Phi Mu Pleges. The host for the
evening was Mr. Douglas A.
Graham of the Science Depart
ment,
Three panels of beautiful
hachelorettes were asked ques
tions bv three very handsome
bachelors and one beautiful
bachelorette quizzed a panel of
three handsome bachlors. When
the questioning was over, each
bachlor and bachlorette has to
choose their date.
After all of these difficult
decisions were made, Mr.
Graham told each couple what
their exciting date would be.
Each couple received a dinner af
one of Wilson’s restaurants and
a few other added attractions.
As the Phi Mu Dating Game
drew to a close, Mr. Graham
called the four lucky couples-
Bobby Sarnia and Paula McCoy,
Bobby Winne and Karol
Tackett, Laura Miller and
Phillip Williams and J. J.John
son and Sandra Butler back for a
good-bye SMOOCH to end this
very entertaining evening.

Although school was not cancelled by last week’s snow, the spirit of these feisty students
was not dampened. The picture aljove shows some students pelting several administration

P.D.Q. Bach at State

“The Notebook for Bctty-Sue
Bach" and “The Toot Suite for

the Snake and the Baroque
Caliope. Comments on the life
and times of P.D.Q. Bach will be
illustrated by Professor
Schickele’s collection of rare
slides, manuscripts and other
memorabilia. John Ferrante,
noted bargain-counter tenor of
the show since its premiere in
1965, is another delightful
feature of the program.
The show has played to
satisfied audience across the
United States. "The most
original and satisfying expen at
musical parody around these
days is...named Peter
Schickele," says Life Magazine.
Wrote the N. Y. Times: "P.D.Q.

body know that they are being
represented. Mr. Cummings is
willing to listen to all student's
suggestions; therefore, feel free
to come to any member on the
committee and voice your
opinion.
The ice cream machines are
in the cafe but have not been
running due to the cost involved
in hooking them up. We are now-
waiting for the electricians to
come so we should see the start
of the machines soon. One
should also look forward to new
chili, new hot dogs, and sundaes
almost every Thursday night.
We also wish to remind the
students that Valentine's is
coming up and we should see
some delights on that day.
Monday night, Feb. 4. will be
our first try at "homemade"
pizza. This is something new
and we hope that all students
will enjoy this meal. We would
also appreciate your support
and consideration.
Our next meeting is planned
for Monday, Feb. II, at 4:30
