Address: 4617 Friendly Ave. Phone: 294-9974 About the pottery demonstration, Mrs. Greenleaf said she wanted for people to know what a joy it is to serve on home-made dishes. Each ceramic work "has its own integrity, not like the mass-produced sets of dishes." Mrs. GreenleaPs philosophy of teaching is centered round a conviction that art must be done freely. When students ask her timourously whether something is wrong she tells her class, "Probably what any of us do today may be a horrible mistake, but if it's done freely then it's right for today."

With the lowering of the voting age to eighteen, 1972 marks the first year that college students will be able to participate fully in presidential politics. "The New Voters" has been produced by APB-TV for exclusive showings to college audiences and the series will be the only occasion in which America's political leaders will attempt to relate to their new youth constituency. College-aged voters will learn how the candidates feel about such issues as legalizing the sale of marijuana, giving amnesty to young people who refused to fight in Vietnam, and ending the large corporations' domination of power in America. ■ ■ Petitions are now being accepted for positions on next year's Campus Judi cial Board.

Best Wishes From CAROLINA CAMERA CENTER 121 W. Market & Summit Shopping Center THE GUILFORDIAN Mrs. Greenleaf can't remember when she wasn't fascinated by the visual arts. At four she was writing stories so she could illustrate them. She had a 16 dry watercolor set she ordered from the Sears catalog. She never had any art training in public school, but she did remember once when her fourth grade teacher brought three Irish potatoes to draw as an art lesson. Mrs. Greenleaf was scolded for drawing eyes on the potatoes when they weren't visible from her seat in the classroom. At the University of Minnesota, Mrs. Greenleaf received her first formal art training. Finding the art education department at that time to be "rather dilettante" she took her degree at the school of architecture. Her first teaching was done at the Minneapolis School of Art, where she also studied. She taught design and color and the history of art and decoration. When the depression came, Mrs. Greenleaf went to Paris and studied at the Atelier of Andre Lhote. Returning to the U.S. she settled in New York. Her first New York contacts were with the Pen and Brush Club, an organization founded by women in order to create opportunities for women artists. Among the guests on "The New Voters" are Senator Edmund Muskie, Rep. Paul McCloskey, Senator Hubert Humphrey, Senator Eugene McCarthy, Senator George McGovern, Governor Ronald Reagan, Rep. Shirley Chisholm, Senator Henry Jackson, Senator Fred Harris. Fifty minutes is given for the appearance of each politician so that the students will have adequate time to follow up on each question. "The New Voters" series was taped before an audience of college students at George Washington University in Washington, D.C., and will be shown only on college campuses. I dwrfracxs af/e6wster S P*CE s "2-^Heozs - SeiU Kliendienst on Pot And Other Things (CPS) President Nixon may well take a more relaxed, tolerant position on marijuana this year in order to woo the youth vote. In that case, it is worth recalling the words of Richard Kliendienst, the deputy Attorney General who is to become Attorney General when John Mitchell steps down to head Nixon's reelection campaign. Kliendienst has modestly declared his own views to be closer to the President's than any other living person. Here is what he said to a group of Georgetown University students in April, 1970: Women Offered Mechanics Course A four session "mini-course" in "Auto Mechanics-sort of," primarily for women, will be offered on the Guilford campus during April and May. The course is the result of a chance meeting between Nancy Thomas and Dean Vicky Curby, in the midst of a misfunction in young Nancy's automobile. The two noticed how the natural reaction was to run for a man to fix the car, but both came upon the utter absurdity of depending on males to take care of simple maintenance and repair of their cars. To combat this need, they arranged for this course. The course will be an introduction to the basic parts and functions of a car, servicing tips, how to change tires, use jump cables, etc., etc. David B. Hester, a Guilford Technical Institute instructor in auto mechanics will teach the course. There 1 is no fee for registration or instruction. Dean Curby noted that although it is primarily for women, students, staff, or community, it is open to men. Auto Mechanics will be taught in four, Wednesday evening sessions. There will be meetings on April 12, April 19, April 26, and May 3. It will be in the Leak Room from 6:30 to 8:30 on each of the Wednesdays. PAGE 5 "Our job is to enforce the law, and only that. Marijuana is destructive to the fabric of America, and must be treated as such. "You know, if you lived in Russia and were caught smoking you would be killed you know, shot. "If we permit our citizens to smoke legally, don't you think the Russians would begin to see the opportunity to take us over? "After all, we all know that the reason the Arabs are losing the war to the Jews is because they smoke so much." Mr. Hester is presently factory representative for Sun Electric Corporation which handles automotive testing equipment. In the past he has been a mechanic and service manager and had his own automotive shop. Persons interested in signing up for Auto Mechanics should do so at the Student Personnel Office. No More Warnings Dean of Students Andy Gottschall has instructed the residence hall staff (all coordinators and interns) that no further warnings will be issued for visitation violations. Previous policy had been to issue one warning before bringing a violator to trial. Gottschall stated that the warning system had been a temporary measure until people were aware of the regulations. "Sufficient time has elapsed so this is no longer a concern," the dean stated. Gottschall also noted that the school and state laws against walking with open alcoholic beverages were being violated, and that he would attempt tc enforce these rules.
