'In the Boom Boom Room'
a modern American tragedy
Sports Club Council endorsement
By CHIP ENSSLIN
Arts Editor
John Morrow, director of the CaroLna Union's
production of In the Boom Boom Room, believes
that the cardinal sin of the any theatet group is to
be dull.
His production of David Rabe's 1973 Broadway
hit is going to be anything but dull.
"I don't think we'll have any people walking
out." he said last week.
That is an understatement.
The play, by the author of Streamers, Slicks and
Bones, and The Basic Training of Pavlo Hummel,
deals with homosexuality, beatings, child abuse,
abortion, drug abuse and violent death. It is seen
from the perspective of Chrissy, a go-go dancer, a
high school dropout who has never been able to
make anything of herself.
"I like it as well as anything Rabe has done,"
Morrow said. "The characters seem to be more
complete."
Morrow saw the opening night Broadway
performance of the play. Directed by Joseph
Papp. In the Boom Boom Room was the
inaugural play of the Vivian Beaumont Theater of
the Lincoln Center.
"It's a contemporary American tragedy," he
says of the play. "It appealed to me because it
featured the women's angle. Many of the new
plays written today deal with men. Also, it suited
our needs for casting purposes. Students or local
people could fill many of the roles."
The lead role of Chrissy is played by Sue Boase.
It is a tremendously demanding role, requiring her
to be on stage for virtually all of the play. The three
acts are each about 45 minutes long.
"It's a good script and a good cast," Morrow
says. "1 feel we've developed it as far as we can. It's
a hard piece of work, in terms of production and
the effect it will have on the audience."
There is a scene with partial nudity in In The
Boom Boom Room.
"1 find personally that some nudity on the stage
can be offensive," Morrow says, "but I am ,
idealistic enough to think that you can do
anything on stage as long as it has a point."
Morrow, a native of Charlotte, has worked in
North Carolina theater for many years. He has
extensive experience in acting and directing in
regional theater and has worked with the outdoor
drama Unto These Hills off and on since 1963.
Morrow also directed Jacques Brel, a musical
presented by the Union last spring.
In The Boom Boom Room will run Thursday,
Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights in the Great
Hall of the Carolina Union. Tickets are $2.50 and
are available at the Union desk.
Brownbagging of beer and wine will be
permitted.
The endorsement committee of the Sports
Club Council endorsed Dan Heneghan for
Carolina Athletic Association president, Jim
Phillips for student body president and Lou
Bilionis for Daily Tar Heel editor Friday,
said David Royle, SCC president.
The six-member committee was approved
at a meeting of the 22-member SCC
Wednesday afternoon.
Candidates were invited to the three-hour
meeting approximately 24 hours in advance.
CAA presidential candidate 1 nomas "Fizz"
Cunningham said he was not interviewed by
the committee because he was unable to
break a previous engagement.
"We endorse Heneghan for CAA
president because he has a thorough working
knowledge of athletics at Carolina and club
sports in particular," Royle said.
Royle described Heneghan as highly
approachable. He said Heneghan would
work hard to return the CAA to its former
importance.
In supporting Bilionis for DTH editor,
R oyle said, "Bilionis is more committed than
his opponent to giving student activities full
coverage in the DTH."
Royle said Bilionis would not allow
personal prejudices and ambitions of the
sports staff to control the content of the
sports page.
For student body president, Royle said,
"We believe that Jim Phillips will be a
capable and intelligent administrator,"
Royle said. "He would be a strong advocate
of student interests.
( "Also we feel that he would strive to
strengthen the fiscal and administrative base
of club sports at Carolina."

Hollcman said he was not familiar enough with
the paper to know what changes were needed. "It's
a matter of me being able to go in and see how it's
done now," he said.
Bilionis has proposed a system of staggered
distribution in which the supply of papers at
popular boxes would be replenished throughout
the morning.
He also proposed a plan to avoid small papers.
"Instead of running big 10-page papers in the fall,
tight eights should be run." The money saved from
printing the smaller papers in the fall could be used
to expand the spring papers to six pages. '
Holleman has criticized DTH news coverage,
calling for a reassignment of space in the paper. He
said he would reassess the assignment of space in
the paper to include more coverage of things such
as the Women's Festival and the Shearon Harris
nuclear plant.
Bilionis has pledged to broaden the paper's
coverage from academic issues and Student
Government to include more feature stories and
articles about lifestyles.
Bilionis is a Morehead scholar from Fitchburg,
Mass. Holleman is from Durham.
