The Carolina Joernal — Student Publication Of The University Of North Carolina At Charlotte — Marlena Returns By Robert Wood Saturday ni^t, in the UNION Parquet Room, Marlena Shaw will make her second appearance# on the UNC-C campus. Those who attended last year will remember the great performance that she gave. Accompanied by Loonis McGlohon and his orchestra, Miss Shaw gives wholly of herself for three full hours. She laughs, she cries, she talks -- and the audience stays with her every minute. She has no established style, yet she does something which is very much of herself. Her songs include everything from modem jazz to sentimental ballads, from today’s rock to yesterday’s melodies. Count Basie has said that she is one of the fastest moving jazz singers around today. Other accents to her career include performances on the Playboy Club Circuit and guest appearances on the Tonight Show. Her performance is done in the tradition of her * night club career, maintaining all of her songs, all of her jokes, and interspersing her own personal glimpses in her act. The place is the Parquet Room. The time is Saturday night at 9:00. The cost is, $1.00 per person and $1.50 a couple, with student identification. Dress will be after-five. Miss Marlena Shaw in concert.

McCorkle At a meeting on Wednesday, Oct. 1, the U.N.C.-C. faculty approved a motion concerning the de-escalation resolution which tne Student Legislature had endorsed o ^^^he motion stated th^ the “Resolution Concernmg “f®®" American Military Involvement will be regarded as a petition that w circulated to members of the facuRy for individual decision. Thus, petition is not to be regarded as an official faculty matter. The petition contams the Viet Na resolution endorsed ^ the Legislature and differs from Legislature’s version introductory statement, w " undersigned the Sneral Faeulty of the :^:do"rre‘^hf fot^inl Soiution passed by the Student Legislature of the University of North Carolina at Charlotte as an indication of increasing student, faculty, and general public concern over the war in Vietnam....” A previous motion had been made that the faculty, as a body, adopt the Legislature’s resolution but it failed to carry. One reason cited for its failure was a feeling among certain members that such a motion should not be a faculty matter.
