No More Small Talk "Pride" Becomes a Reality by .lohn "Prozac" Glosson Goodbye, Small Talk! Hello, Pride! Yes, it's finally happened. The paper has been renamed after almost three decades. After the announcement of our contest, sug gestions came pouring in (well, maybe they trickled in.). The winning suggestion was submitted by December graduate Valerie Harel. Valerie, who w as a Small Talk artistic editor last se mester. is currently doing practi cal training as a publication de signer for Pride. She plans to at tend graduate school for (you guessed it) publication design. For those of you who don't know, a pride is a company of lions, and a company is more than two. The Methodist College mas cot is the lion, and there are lots of MC students. That's the connec tion. Clever, huh? Many other suggestions were considered by the staff. We baffled over "The Forager" for awhile, but finally concluded that foraging didn't de.scribe our attitude. "The Roar" was too annoying to say; kind of like "rural." "The Monarch." Classv, so phisticated. yet boring and predict able. "On the Mane." No. We saved "The Circuit Writer" for the Cir cuit Players in case they ever de cide to start a newsletter. Here are some of the other suggestions: The Bite. Lion Heart, The Lair (almost The Liar!), Lion Lingo. The Growl, Lion Eyes. Lion Share. Lion Print, The Egg, Tooth Truth. Quo Vadis. Lion Lair (al most Lion Liar!), and Cat Chronicles. We thank everyone w'ho submitted suggestions and hope you enjoy the new name. Fallen Angels On March 4-6 by Che Rivadulla Golfers! While you're out putting, is someone else petting the other love in your life? This is the issue addressed in the Monarch Players production of "Fallen Angels," a comedy of the twenties by Noel Coward. The play will be performed on March 4 and 5 at 8;00 p.m. and March 6 at 3;(X) p.m. The plot revolves around two women who are happily married but as single women had an affair w ith the same man. Now this suave character is back and wants to meet with both of them while their hus bands are out meeting the fairway. "Fallen Angels" is directed by Summer Brock. The cast con sists of Jeannie Denman, Sam Wil liams, Camisha Bell, and Michele Burdick. And making their Meth odist College debuts are Phil Colby and William Boche. This is reported to be the construction tent for the new dorm building, but some think E.T. is being held by NASA inside. New Dorm Is On The Rise by Bryan Harris Construction for the new dorm is proceeding as planned and should be completed by August 1994. There have been no deviations from the previous building plans, so the model that was displayed in the Student Union last fall serves as an accurate idea for the finalized project. No decision will be made concerning the rooming arrangements until after spring break. When the time arrives to pre-register for rooms for the fall semester, the new dorm will be included into the housing choices.
