4 The Daily Tar Heel Friday. November 18 Union boardvotes to shelve proposal on new committee By MC I IUGHLS SlafT Writer The Carolina Union Board or Directors voted Thursday night (o table a proposal that would create a Major Attractions Committee separate from the I'nion Activities Board. The proposal to create the committee was submitted by Carolyn .lack, chairperson of the Union' Performing Arts Committee. Jack said the formation ofaseparatecommitteewould"free the Union Activities Board of the burden of spending large sums of money to bring major attractions to the l'niersity." Jack said the committee, if formed, also would allow student input in deciding hat attractions to bring to UNC. According to Jack, students currently have no input in the process. Meetings of the proposed committee would be open to all students, although only active committee members could vote. Howard Henry, Union director, said the creation of a Major Attractions Committee would not eliminate the difficulty of bringing major attraction to UNC. "The product just isn't very available," Henry said. According to Henry, there are not enough groups available w ho are willing to perform in the limited space of Memorial Hall or Carmichacl Auditorium. "I just don't see how the structure of this proposal will change what is available to us," Henry said. Henry said the Union also is considering improving the acoustics of Carmichael, which he said would cost about $ 125,000. Ty Braswell, a graduate student in speech communication and a former chairperson of the student union at the University of Richmond, said the union at Richmond faced a similar problem, which was solved by actively involving students in the activities of the union. Braswell said the Carolina Union mut make it evident to students that their input is w elcome and needed, whether this is done through the proposed committee or some other method. The Board of Directors w ill meet again Dec. I to consider the proposed committee.

'Beyond the Fringe': comedy featuring gags, sophistication By CHIP ENSSLIN Arts and Entertainment Kditor Professional comedy has come to town. The North Carolina Shakespeare Keslival 011 Seuson Players are presenting Hcyomlilu- Frinf-t: an uproariously tunny production, at the Ranch House. If you enjoy sophisticated British humor of the Monty Python variety, outrageous sight gags, or iust plain silliness, get a cooler of beer and a gang ol friends and pull up a chair. tU-yniiil (( Fringe is the work of British lunnymcn Peter Cooke and Dudley Moore which was first produced beyond the "Fringe." the perimeter ol the Edinburgh Festival held annually in Scotland. 1 he five members of the cast each appeared in one or more of the 1977 productions of the North Carolina Shakespeare Festival, which is based in High Point. These five principals are kept busy "during the fust-paced production, which features eleven vignettes. (iordon Ferguson, who narrates an obscene fairy tale and gives a one-man routine about coal mining, has performed with the Playmakers Repertory Company in Chapel Hill and spends his summers doing outdoor dramas. Bernard Johnson, who has experience acting in Shakespearian plays on the West Coast, acts the role of a detective hired to locate God in a sketch Beyond the Fringe borrows from Woody Allen. He locates what he believes is the deceased deity. Any clues? "We think it's the work of an existentialist." he says. Mary Key Woods, a graduate of the American Academy of Dramatic Arts, plays all the female roles, ranging from the housewife in Thurber's I 'nieorn in the Garden to a seductive coed who parades in her "diaphanous peignoir." A minister who enthusiastically exhorts his congregation is played by David l.einthall, a veteran of Broadway and off-Broadway productions. Rick Simpson, who acted in Diamond Studs in New York City, plays Ramon El Magnilicco, a South American magician. In the grand finale, a dramatic takeoff on Shakespeare entitled .So That's The Way You Like It, the five actors demonstrate their familiarity with Elizabethan drama in a mad farce. Beyond the Fringe has two perlormances tonight before taking a holiday recess and returning Nov. 30 through Dec. 2. There are two shows each night at the Ranch House, at 7 and 9. 1 ickets are $4 for adults and $3 for students with ID. Phone 942-5155 for reservations. Beer and wine are available -at the bar during performances. WCHL goofs in news report on referendum Although UNC students voted Wednesday on a referendum to increase student fees by $2.50 per semester, WCHL news reported Thursday morning that students would go to the polls that day to vote on the very same referendum. "It was an oversight," Susan Datz of WCHL news said Thursday afternoon. "The story was left oven from Wednesday and run by mistake. We have since talked to Bill Moss and run another story with the results and everything." LUNCH BUCK .CW DOLLAR Off OR COUPON n orcein l. ONE PJ I 1 frlf :- &OWUMSWJ TQS W. ROSEMARY "ST.. 2:30 VtRV SAY "WHY DO THE HEATHEN RAGE? Psalms 2:1 and Acts 4:25 "AN ALMIGHTY JUSTICE DOES VERILY RULE THIS WORLD, IT IS GOOD TO FIGHT ON GOD'S SIDE, AND BAD TO FIGHT ON THE DEVIL'S SIDE!" Are you a fighter? If to, on whose tide? Are you neutral? Some time ago we were told of a promising young preacher who said he was not going "to fight." He had gotten his degree from the seminary and read to go out In the world to do something or other. He testified he was a fundamentalist that believed the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments to be "The Infallible Word of God," that he Intended to so preach and teach, but he would not be contentious "and fight unbelievers, modernists, apostates, etc." doesn't that sound and look sweet and lovely? We are of the opinion that such an attitude Is not only wrong, but mighty dangerous. In Revelation 3:15, 16, Christ said of those "neither cold nor hot, lukewarm, I will spue thee out of My mouth!" Con sider the picture Dante gives us of those down In hell who had been "spued out". There were sighs, lamentations, and loud cries of woe resounding through the starless air. Diverse tongues, horrible dialects, words of anguish, accents of wrath, voices high and hoarse, and clapping and wringing of hands make there a tumult which goes on torever like the sand when the whirlwind blows. This is the abode of the "lukewarm" who lived on earth "without Infamy and without praise." They are mingled with the band of angels who, when Lucifer rebelled were neither rebels, nor faithful to God. Heaven drove them out because Its beauty would have been dimmed by their presence; nor would the depth of hell receive them, because the damned below would have some glory on their account! H ere were men who did not act a manly part during life, who did not know how to make up their mind and take a decisive step, but preferred to await events and reserve to themselves freedom to Join the successful side. Justice and mercy hold them In equal contempt! They are displeasing to God and His enemies! (We trust our motive Is not just to rail on the "lukewarm and non-fighters" but rather to so get them HOT under the collar to the end they may be stirred up "to fight the good fight of faith, and lay hold on eternal life)" We are persuaded, unless one "believes In vain," that the fundamental faith of the In fallibility of The Scriptures of The Old and New Testaments will so stir up and quicken a man not only to fight, but also to run "flee the wrath to cornel" "THE LORD IS A MAN OF WAR" Exodus 15: 3. Abraham, the Friend of God, fought several kings and whipped them Genesis 14:14, etc. Judge Deborah was a "woman of war" J udges 5:7. King David the man after G od's own heart, was "a man of war." The Apostle Paul was a f Ighterf "I have fought a good fight, I have kept the faith;" and he called upon all true C hristians to "Put on the whole armour of G od, that he may be able to stand agalnat the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, agalnat the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness In high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand." Epheslans &11, etc. Thank God for the fighting of Luther, Calvin, Knox, Cromwell, Bunyan, Wesley, and the millions of martyrs from Stephen on down to those who to day fight and suffer for the testimony of Christ and His Righteousness!
