Lives Saved at MHC — In an article last fall, the SGA Traffic Committee brought their findings and concerns to the stu dent body as a whole. The committee stated that parking gripes were not legitimate, inconsistent ticketing would be further investigated, and pedestrian safety features would have to be dealt with through the proper channels. That article was written in early December, 1977. Since then the committee has made some noteworthy progress. Have you spotted those yellow tri angular signs with the stick person on them yet? What about the white paint on the road in front of the library or at the exit from Girl's Hill? Those results came after gaining the Senate’s support, the town of Mars Hill’s support, and last ly the State Highway Department’s support. Best of all, it was State-funded. At present, the committee is trying to find funds for a caution light that would slow down traffic coming from Mar shall on Highway 213. Their efforts al so include getting a one-way sign posted on the road to the Dickson- Palmer Apartments. If you’ve ever nearly plunged into Unit C’s parking lot after a desparate swerve to avoid a head-on collision with a mysterious U.M.V. (Unidentified Moving Vehicle), then you can appreciate such attention. Take a Traffic Committee Member out to lunch. Their names are Jimmy Zimmerman, David Gaskin, Scott Wilk inson, and Richard Heaton. tier' Alburn Review need a quiet P*®!j] uch places are s :el that it is nergy and It 10:00 p.m- it power to keep illy submitted' ices L.

Through out % album emotion rolls down to each song and once or twice ijj'.Ms. Armatrading portrays her feel- fy diversed styles; the simple coun- V ^*'^es of the first cut, “Woncha j Home”: a finger snapping funk- “Get in the Sun”: slow soul 'tsj ,^§ of “Warm Love”, and a preach- “Never too Late” and “Peace 'Utia" It is a smoother album than last year’s Joan Armatrading yet the mixture of sensitivity and bravado of the last al bum are lacking in “Show Some Emo tion”. Something of Joan’s personal touch is missing. The self-taught mu sician sort of burys herself in an imper sonal way to gain wider acceptance. Buried or not, through forced harshness, this individualistic trait of Joan’s does seep through. All one has to do is look at her smiling face on the album cover to see that Armatrading can show some emotion. Sara LeFever ry lor filer e Jones, John ill dl.

Lady Netters Compete in State Tourney by Sally Curtis On the morning of Wednesday, April 19, Chamber’s Gym found itself suddenly infiltrated with anxious but lightheart ed members of the women’s tennis team. The team was preparing for its trip to UNC-Charlotte for an afternoon match and on to High Point for the state tourn ament, held the 20th-22nd. Though scheduled to leave at ten o’clock, the majority of the players had packed and found comfortable seats long before the small hand struck ten. A grinning Dr. Hart calmly stated, “They’re an eager bunch!” And the girls certainly have reason to be eager. They have posted a fine 6-2 spring record and possess an overall record of 9-4. This becomes more im pressive, though certainly hard on the coach’s nerves, when one notes that three out of the four losses came with tallies of 4-5, only one match sep arating the Lady Lions from a team vic tory. In each of the wins this spring, the team has recorded victories of either 8-1 or 9-0. These scores indicate depth and strength throughout Hart’s squad. On April 12, the Mars Hill women visited Lenoir Rhyne, handing the home team an 8-1 setback. Queens College felt the same “Agony of defeat” when Mars Hill repeated its 8-1 performance there. The Lady Lions’ only recent loss was suffered on March 17 when East Tennessee squeezed by the homenetters 4-5. Rosemary Almond, holding the num ber one singles slot, has won 8 indi vidual matches this season, boasting her overall singles record at MH to 21 wins and 6 losses. Meanwhile, owner of the number two spot, Jody Self, has posted 10 wins against 4 losses this season in singles events. Vickie McGloth- in has added 8 individual victories while Claudia Bragdon had compiled an excellent record of 12 wins against a single loss. Cindy Hall, Podge Harrel- son, and Karen Darr have also been strong contributors in both the singles and doubles win columns. So the Lady Lions are on their way to the state tournament. The tournament will be flighted with players seeded according to season records. Based on what they have done during the season. Dr. Hart feels “the players can definite ly hold their own at the tournanient.” She and her team leave Chambers loaded with equipment and painted with optimistic smiles. They take with them a good overall record, impressive individual statistics, and a definite de sire to collect some wins! New Leaders for Communication Media At the April 12 meeting of the Board for Student Communications Media new editors and managers were elected for the 1978-79 academic year following an interview session with all of the ap plicants. In action by the board, the Hilltop editor for 1978-79 will be Sara Lefever, a rising sophomore English major from Pinehurst.

The Laurel will again be edited by two people next year, as the board named Cheryl Aldridge and Kirk Hall as co editors. Ms Aldridge, a rising senior home economics major from Robbins- ville, co-edited the 1978 book, and Hall, a rising senior English major from Fay etteville, has been class representative to the board. The Cadenza for 1979 will be edited by Tom Carr, a rising senior English major from Chadbourn. Carr has been editing the Experiential Education Center’s newsletter during the spring semester. Mike Mitchell will repeat as the manager of WVMH-FM. Mitchell, a rising senior history major from Mon treat, has been manager of the campus radio station for the current school year.
