QUESTION: About two years ago
I dislocated my shoulder and since
then it has “popped out” six or
seven times, ^at is a dislocated
^oulder? I have heard that there
is no way short of an operation to
return it to normal.
Secondly, what do you think of
Weight lifting as a means of
keeping in shape?
ANSWER: Joints are held in place
by muscles, tendons and
ligaments. Once a joint has been
dislocated, it becomes easier for it
to “pop out” on subsequent
pccasions when an unusual force
is applied to it. Each time is a
little easier than the one before.
Examination by an orthopedic
surgeon is indicated in your case.
Corrective surgery entails
tightening up of loosened
structures and occasionally
hansplanting a ligament. It is
indicated in severe cases.
People who weight lift say it’s
great. Most people feel that is is
supplementary to a well-rounded
exercise program. In your case.
Weight lifting that would involve
your injured shoulder should only
be at your doctor’s
recommendation. In fact. I’d raise
'Uy arm slowly in class if I were
you.
ANSWER: This variation on glue
sniffing probably makes use of the
toxic effects of either the glue or
the solvent used to get it off the
tape. Inhalation of unknown
vapors can be very dangerous,
sometimes causing liver disease or
convulsions. The package for this
particular tape says it is good for
permanent use. Sniffing vapors
can also be fatal.
the area outside ot the vaginal
orifice.
Many women create
unnecessary irritation and dryness
by the use of irritating douches.
QUESTION: I would like to know
about douching. First, what
actually is it and how is it done?
Why is it used? Should it be
performed every time after
intercourse? Where and how can 1
get the materials? Please explain
or tell me where such information
can be obtained.
QUESTION: Since I stopped
shaving my legs, I’ve gotten
several slightly ingrown hair
bumps, especially on my thighs.
What can I do to prevent these?
QUESTION: A few of my friends
^sll me that the latest fad is
getting high on the scent of the
Adhesive portion of Scotch magic
Uansparent tape. Is this
potentially harmful in any way?
ANSWER: Vaginal douching
refers to the rinsing of the vagina
with water or other solutions. A
rubber bulb-like syringe or
containers with small hoses and
nozzles are usually used.
It is done largely because of
cultural indoctrination which says
that the vagina is a dirty place.
Douching usually has a place only
for the application of specific
medicines in treating vaginal
infections. The vagina is self
cleaning. Douching is not
necessary after intercourse or
menses. Incidentally, it does no
good as a contraceptive means.
Proper hygiene is generally
accomplished by the usual
washing with soap and water in
ANSWER: A wise doctor friend
tells me that the problem you
have is related to drawing the skin
up tight when shaving against the
grain. Wlien you release the skin,
the hair stubble retracts below the
skin’s surface and makes it easy
for them to become ingrown. Or,
if they don’t become ingrown, a
little lip of thickened skin forms
around them making a small
bump. This is experienced by men
who do the same things when
they shaVe under their cliin. To
avoid this, allow the skin to
remain flat without tension when
you shave your legs, especially if
you go against the grain. Most of
those bumps you describe will go
away by themselves.

Sophomore Representative Stan
Patterson’s earlier resolution
concerning male visitors to
Sanford Hall. Patterson’s
suggestion was that UNCC males
need only to show their ID cards
at the hostess desk in Sanford to
be admitted to the residence
floors; the hostess would phone
only those girls whose visitors are
not UNCC students.
Hickok stated that, if this rule
is to be changed, it must be done
by the residents of Sanford Hall.
President Friday sets pace
• • *9V
•Jb
Having spent a most enjoyable Friday this past week, I thought I
would share with you some of the reflections which passed through my
mind during the Recognition Day affair.
The luncheon was a pleasant surprise in that the food was
unusually good considering that it was fixed by our own food service. It
was chicken on pastry smothered with what I thought was a creamy
sherry sauce. John Ryan eloquently relinquished his duties as the first
president of the Friends of UIMCC. Mr. Ryan, who I first met in a photo
store downtown, never disappoints me (or anyone else for that matter)
as an organizer and master of ceremonies.
It was a star-studed cast that was in attendance with such notables
as: Luther Hodges; former governor and Secretary of Commerce, Dan
K. Moore and family; the Belk bros., Irwin and our mayor John; Dr.
Garinger; Miss Denny; and President Friday.
Chancellor Colvard remained joyous throughout the festivities; while
Miss Cone,just as happy, remained more or less in the back g^und.
Nevertheless, the expressions of pride on her face were there for
everyone to view. "
It was President Friday who set the pace for the Day of Recognition
as he expressed confidence in a young institution flexing its muscles
before the community and state. Not always certain whether we would
make it this far, Friday commended our making it and in record time.
He also commented that there would be a continued emphasis on this
sanctuary of higher education.
At my table sat the President of the League of Women Voters, whose
name I don't recall. On the other hand, after a prolonged luncheon
conversation, I do remember that she attended college with Art
Buchwald. That's worth something. I'm sure.
The luncheon concluded with a symbolic play about the growth of
UNCC which was dedicated to Miss Cone whose "Big Vision" made it
all possible. Anyway, Ralph Cook, as little vision, and Dean Duncan, as
big vision, unfolded a skit that was not only cute for the children and
ladies, but also carried a message for the friends of UNCC stressing our
over-growing needs.
John Lockhart took over as next year's president and challenged the
Friends to an even greater and more profitable year to come.
With that everyone was dismissed for a tour of the campus. Outside
they were anxiously awaited by the campus's most enterprizing frat
Alpha Kappa Psi, who piloted a number of golf carts for the tours.
Seeing all those important, as well as non-important people Friday,
on campus to view our school, made me proud that I attend UNCc!
The time we spend here is ever more meaningful because we are part of
an precedented growth that we will look back on someday with much
more pride than*we do now.
Villagers come on strong
Delta Phi Zeta along with the Union presented a dance the other
night which had to be one of the best this campus has ever seen. The
Villagers came on strong with the heavy sounds everyone wanted to
hear. The crowd, which was predominally Greek, chanted spirited
outbursts of fraternity and UNCC pride which was extremely healthy.
Once again, it pleased me to see so many different groups on campus,
greek or otherwise gather together and have such a good time.
Sportmanship ^ Violence
As a closing note, I would like to comment on the outbreaks of
violence that have been frequent this past week on UNCC's intramural
football field.
Have we lost sight of the ancient and over-used cliche, "it's not
whether you win or loose, it's how you play the game (that counts)?"
Apparently' we have.
I realize that there is always a certain amount of violence on any
playing field, but the evident lack of sportsmanship that we have
recently witnessed displays destructive and personalized violence.
With a little effort from all intramural team-mates. I'm certain that
true sportsmanship and enjoyment will return to UNCC playing fields.
