2 Wednesday, March 15,1995 Hypnotist Guaranteed to Put Students to Sleep BY STEVE MAGGI ASSISTANT UNIVERSITY EDITOR Students can be put in a trance today when world famous hypnotist Barry Seedman givesa lecture at 7:30p.m. in 209 Manning Hall. The presentation, “The Power of Hyp nosis,” which is sponsored by the Self- Knowledge Symposium, will include a lec ture on hypnosis and a demonstration us ing members from the audience. “It’s some of the best entertainment people can get,” symposium member Dave Gold said. Seedman brought his presentation to N.C. State University March 6, and left with rave reviews. “Hespoke until 10p.m. INJURIES FROM PAGE 1 until late Thursday to decide Wallace’s playing status. UNC could have played as early as Thursday, but the NCAA Tourna ment selection committee gave the Tar Heels the first game Friday instead. The extra day probably improved Wallace's chance to play in UNC’s first round game. That lucky break was something Smith hadn’t thought of until someone pointed it out to him at the press conference. “1 hadn’t thought of that,” Smith said. “But yes, thank you (NCAA) committee." Forward Dante Calabria —another UNC player who has had ankle problems this season said Wallace would benefit greatly if he could practice Thursday be fore playing a game on the injured ankle. “The first thing really that you have to do is get over that the ankle hurts, ” Calabria said. “When I was coming back from from my second sprain, we were playing against Maryland, and it hurt in warm-ups. I just basically had to say, ‘Hey, OK it hurts, but it doesn’t hurt that bad.’” No question if team doctors clear Wallace to play, he will. He won’t sit out just because Murray State is a No. 15 seed. “You haven’t seen the same Murray State tape as I have,” Smith said. If Wallace can’t play, Smith said he has three options at center —Jerry Stackhouse, Pat Sullivan or Serge Zwikker. “If (Pearce) Landry starts, then Stackhouse is our center. If Sullivan started, then he’d be our center. And if Zwikker started, of course, he’d be our center.” But it’s the doctors’ call. Smith said he’s been burned too many times by players who claim to be healthy enough and then can’t perform on the court. If Wallace can’t convince Smith to play him over doctors’ orders, blame Hubert Davis. After Davis, a senior guard in 1992, talked Smith into letting him back into the second round of the NCAA Tournament, the UNC head coach decided he had been fooled for the last time by a player As part of the Greek Affairs Office goal to provide more recognition to our members that achieve academically, we are proud to announce the chartering of #amma i§>tgma SUlplja Rational <greek Ucabemtr Honor i£>octetj> Gamma Sigma Alpha was founded to “recognize those Greek members that achieve excellence in academics” Gamma Sigma Alpha is recognized at over 50 major universities in North America We are proud to join the ranks of other major universities in our offering our Greek members the opportunity to be recognized for their academic excellence Jilembersrtnp &equtremcntsi Junior or Senior status 3.5 cumulative GPA or higher Spring 1995 Charter jflflember Clagg Ann Archie - Delta Delta Delta Andrea Grantham - Zeta Tau Alpha Meredith Paul - Kappa Kappa Gamma Kendall Barmett - Chi Omega Tiffany Griggs - Phi Mu Kerin Polla - Zeta Tau Alpha Caroline Bemdt - Delta Zeta Kelly Hartoin - Chi Omega Daniel Rose - Chi Psi Joseph Canady - Sigma Phi Epsilon David Hathaway - Sigma Phi Epsilon Bonnie Seigler - Alpha Chi Omega Amelia Chang - Zeta Tau Alpha Holly Hicks - Zeta Tau Alpha Kathleen Shanahan - Kappa Kappa Gamma Anna Coffin - Kappa Delta Anne Hudson - Alpha Delta Pi Angie Schock - Alpha Chi Omega Cindy Craig - Delta Zeta Richard Fremont - Tau Epsilon Phi Holly Shuford - Alpha Chi Omega Elizabeth Crawford - Chi Omega Ashley Huie - Kappa Delta McGregor Smyth - Sigma Chi Shannon Dorsey - Delta Delta Delta Tracy Jackson - Kappa Delta Angela Stem - Kappa Delta Rebecca Eisele - Delta Delta Delta Betsey Kelly - Chi Omega Karen Taggart - Phi Mu Paula Eldridge - Zeta Tau Alpha Lisa Levitin - Chi Omega Nan Teele - Chi Omega Lucy Faulkner - Chi Omega Andrew Lohmann - Sigma Phi Epsilon Emily Toler - Zeta Tau Alpha Casella Foster - Delta Sigma Theta Kenneth Long - Delta Tau Delta Megan Wessinger - Chi Omega Craig Freiberg - Sigma Phi Epsilon Monica McLeod - Delta Sigma Theta Building the best Greek Community in North America 1.

Sisterhood/Brotherhood The Power of Hypnosis that night, and ev eryone was still there at the end,” Gold said. “The questionnaires people filled out af terwards were uni formly positive.” Barry Seedman 209 Manning 7:30 pjn. Wednesday The certified hypnotherapist has dem onstrated his talents all over the world, including in Japan and South Africa, and his private practice clientele in New York City includes people from all walks of life, such as actors and athletes. “He’s really good,” Gold said. “There isn’t anyone he can’t hypnotize.” In the first hour, Seedman will discuss downplaying an injury. “The last one was Hubert Davis in ’92 against that good Alabama team —(LatreD) Sprewell and (Robert) Horry and James Robinson. “Hubert Davis sprained an ankle and limped off and then kept telling me he was OK. So I put him back. It was his senior year. “And he lost the ball and made a mis take, and we almost lost the game. So I told Hubert, ‘lt’s going to be the ‘Hubert Davis Rule’ from now on.’” But that wasn’t the first time Smith had been duped by one of his players desperate to get back into a game. The most ridiculous return from injury might have been Kenny Smith in 1984. That team is still considered, perhaps, Smith’s best team ever —with Michael Jordan, Sam Perkins, Brad Daugherty and Matt Doherty starting with Smith. But many say Smith’s wrist injury was the one thing that kept that team from the national title. “Kenny Smith told me he could dribble left-handed with a cast on, and I believed him,” said the coach, shaking his head. “I’m a sucker for a poor injured player.” The list goes on and on. Include Steve Bucknall’s turf-toe injury in the 1988 NCAA Tournament. “Bucknall wanted to play (Sean) Elliott so bad at Arizona in Seattle that... he said, ‘Oh, it feels great coach. ’ So Elliott zipped around him, and Bucknall was really a great defender.” The Tar Heels’ 1977 Final Four team might have been the team hardest hit by injuries. Starters Tommy LaGarde, Walter Davis and Phil Ford now a UNC assis tant coach each had serious injuries. “Against Kentucky, we held the ball,” Smith said. “Phil Ford couldn’t shoot, but I let him play anyway. They didn’t know he couldn’t shoot.” Sorry Rasheed, but if you can’t get Coach Smith to let you play, ask Coach Ford to explain the reasoning. There won’t be any fooling around with Murray State. UNIVERSITY what hypnotism is and the powers of the subconscious mind. In the second hour, a handful of students will have the opportu nity to be hypnotized onstage. Seedman does not use an object to in duce subjects, needing only his voice to hypnotize, Gold said. “He will induce the group through a combination of visualiza tion and relaxation,” he said. It takes very little time for Seedman to hypnotize people, as he showed during his presentation at NCSU. “He can make sub jects go under very fast,” Gold said. “At N.C. State, all eight of them (the participants) were under within a minute and a half. One of them in 15 seconds.” Tonight’s lecture will end with a group f * W' *. i .Jj, ommik'' , . - j i jjjfffg fl . g i jpyV J .' *i T P DTH/KATIE CANNON Rasheed Wallace went down with a mild-to-moderate sprained ankle late in the ACC championship game. Wallace is listed as questionable by Marc Davis. induction in which Seedman will hypno tize the entire audience. “Everyone was affected by it, from a deep relaxation to a trance,” Gold said of the group induction at N.C. State. “And everyone came away with a feeling of improvement.” Seedman’s recent appearances on tele vision shows including “Sally Jessie Raphael” and “Eye to Eye with Connie Chung” have helped make him a house hold name. A lecture at Duke University March 8 completed two thirds of Seedman’s Tri angle lecture tour, part of a publicity cam paign for his weekend certification course to be held Saturday and Sunday at the Holiday Inn in Raleigh. Sangam Night to Feature Story of Culture Conflict BY ADAM GUSMAN UNIVERSITY EDITOR “Generations” is the theme of Sangam Night, an evening of song, dance and food Friday in the Union’s Great Hall.

The childhood of members of this second generation differs greatly from that of their parents, who must adapt to anew way of life. The theme of the show is the difficulties faced by the two generations. “The performance traces the conflicts in culture between the traditional ways of South Asia and the new American cul ture,” she said. “But it basically comes full circle, as it turns out that there are a lot of similarities as well.” Kothandapani said she thought the au dience would enjoy the musical aspect of the performance. “There are lots of dances to Hindu and Urdu music,” she said. “The various skits and dances will tell the story.” The catered dinner is anew feature this year, she said. “In the past, local people have donated food they prepared them selves.” Organizers of the program were forced to raise the cost for nonstudents to $9 because of the catered dinner, Kothandapani said. Still, the cost for UNC students remained $6. “We tried to keep the costs as low as possible,” she said. Sangam Night is sold out, and tickets will not be sold at the door.
