4Th3 Dz'v Tsr H::!Frid3v. September 5, 1800 or 1 t V J 7 a j J lw J if J ft CyDIANZVUTO Staff Wfer The trauma many freshmen face upen heme is bdn eased by tlires Chapsl Hill women who have taken cn ens cf a mother's most important roles that of baking birthday cakes. "Our idea was to provide birthday cakes for students whose mcms would obviously be out of town and would not be able to 'do that for them," said Margaret Harrington, at Birthdays Etc., baking service. Herrinston works with Edith Kelly and Anne Hamby, baking and decorating the cakes in their homes. In the three weeks they have been in business, these three women, mothers themselves, have received more than 20 orders. A 10-inch-square chocolate or yellow sheet cake with chocolate or vanilla icing costs $10. The decorations include flowers, leaves, stars, candles or messages. 'Not every cake is alike,"Kei!y said. "It's just sort of how we feel that day." Herrington described the cakes as "just like your mom might decorate for you." In the late 1960s, two women operated a similar service on the UNC campus but only for girls. At that time, before many dorms were coed, delivery in women's dorms was simpler than in men's dorms, Kelly said. One of the two original bakers, Betty McGdwan, is a friend of Kelly's, and the inspiration for the revival of the cake baking business. JLV .Lte QjU1.

"We wanted something that wouldn't be full-time and would make us a little money." , The three began advertising in an issue of The Daily Tar Heel that was mailed to freshmen during the summer. The plan was to draw business from parents, but most of the orders received have been from students. "We were really aiming for the parents," Kelly said. "It didn't dawn on us that students would be sending cakes to other students. That was really a surprise." Birthdays Etc., will bake a cake for any occasion and will deliver the cake for no extra charge. On special request, they will bake a cake twice the normal size for twice the normal price. "It's a nice thing.. .to get something away from home that's kind of special," Kelly said. liieaFaii eli etts eEnaiFEimaia David Stacks, former editor of The Daily Tar Heel, was elected acting chairman of the Media Board Monday. Stacks replaces former Media Board Chairman Jimmy Everhart, who was killed in an automobile accident Aug. 14 in Lakeview, S.C. Stacks, a senior journalism major from Blowing Rock, N.C. served for two years as a member-at-large on the board before his appointment as ch iiiman. He will serve as chairman for i he remainder of the fall semester. Sharon Darling, a junior journalism major from Aberdeen, N.C, was approved by the board Monday as the business manager for the Cellar Door. Darling is a former executive secretary to Student Body President Bob Saunders and a former member of The Daily Tar Heel ombudsman staff. . She was appointed as the Cellar Door's business manager when the former business manager transferred to the University of Minnesota. There are still four openings on the Media Board. One is for the student body treasurer and one is for the student body president's appointment to the board. The third opening is for a student from the Graduate and Professional Student Federation. The fourth is for a faculty member from the Division of Student Affairs. For each opening, the office of organization in which the opening exists will recommend a candidate to the Media Board. The board will then make a final decision on the recommendations. The Media Board also needs a secretary and treasurer for the coming 5rear. These positions will be filled after the other openings on the board have been filled. ROANN BISHOP . Sf WrUer Walker Percy, the voice cf the alienated Christian and the New South, sounds cut stronger than ever in his latest novel, . Tks Second Coming. Like its four predecessors, 77:? Second ' Coming is a novel cf ideas: disturbing and probing, yet lUti'Wi VUJ t-A VWii Jf 77:5 Second Coming continues the story cf Will Earrett, the hero cf Percy's 77;? Lest Gentleman. In the earlier novel Barrett was a distracted, likeable young man prone to fits cf amnesia. In Percy's new novel Earrett is older and wealthy; his wife, the richest heiress in North Carolina, had died prior to the beginning cf the bock. He retires to Linwood, N.C. who r t, .J He suffers attacks of memory instead of amnesia. Again and again Barrett relives the boyhood hunting scene in a Georgia pin-oak swamp where his father attempted to kill Barrett and himself. He disturbs his friends as they play golf with questions about the disappearance of the Jews and with occasional collapses into bunkers. The Second Coming is also the story of Allison, Percy's most brilliant creation and one of the outstanding characters of modern literature. She is the 19-year-old daugher of Barrett's old flame Kitty Vaught. After escaping from a mental institution, Allison sets up a home in an abandoned greenhouse. Barrett meets Allie there while looking for a badly sK'ia golf ball. Allie, whether grcpir.g for a wcrd, miking her cdi rhymes cr hoisting an antique stove, adds a fresh dimension to Percy's usual intellectual approach. Barrett steadily goes mad and decides to descend "into Lost Cove cave looking for proof of the existence cf God and a sign of the apocalypse like some crackpot preacher in California." From this point the novel races to its bewildering conclusion through seme bizarre episodes at the St. Mark's Convalescent Home to which Earrett is committed by his friends. The Second Coming is net light reading. Percy, published a book of philosophical essays in ths Message In The Dottle, wrestles' with ideas not found in most wSt-bSi-wrs iiw pTctlm cf tnmuJi ccrirnuiwL.iuri) llic living death cf "socking little balls around the mountains, rattling ice in Tanqueray, riding $35,000 German cars, watching Billy Graham and the Steelers and MASH on a 45-inch Jap TV," and the cold, yet life-giving, reality of a shotgun in a Georgia swamp. Percy prefers to decipher our crazy 20th century existence rather than sell a million novels. But what makes The Second Coming a tour de force is that it is very entertaining. Percy possesses a unique style, a mocking wit and a talent for creating unforgettable characters, making all of his novels enjoyable reading. The Second Coming is a much better novel than Lancelot which Percy published in 1977, and surpasses his first novel The Moviegoer, winner of the National Book Award. Percy has put much more thought into The Second Coming; it is a more religiously profound novel than The Moviegoer. He goes further in his analyses of man and his condition while retaining all of his characteristic drive and humor. Percy remains a singular inspirational author in today's mass of commercialized writers. v IT?. By FRANK WELLS SUff Writer When classes begin next week at the N.C. School of Science and Mathematics, 149 high school juniors will have an opportunity to develop their potentials in scientific and technological fields. The school, located in Durham, was funded by the legislature in 1978 to provide adequate educational facilities for gifted young people. Now, with the planning stages over and the doors set to open, officials say they are prepared to meet the unusual challenges presented by such a school. "We're looking forward to next week," said Ola Stringer, director of admissions. "Now we can see if our preparation has paid off." Because state funds were not available until July, some facilities are not completely ready. Stringer said finishing touches are now being added to laboratories. She said rooms will be ready when students move in Sept. 7. More than 900 North Carolina high school sophomores were nominated for admission to the school last year. Of those, 149 were selected on the basis of Scholastic Aptitude Test scores, high school grades and personal interviews. Thirty of those selected are black and four are American Indians. There are 75 girls and 74 boys enrolled in the program. Stringer said about 150 more students will be admitted next year, and out-of-state students will be enrolled in several years. She said only 15 percent of the student body will come from outside North Carolina. "Our students will have access to the finest scientific facilities but will also be involved in advanced courses in language, art, literature and social studies," Stringer said. "These students will not be isolated from the community. They are very well rounded and will be involved in the community through work-service projects," Stringer said. The school is funded by the state and by independent foundations. Stringer said $2 million is budgeted for the first school year. "Students don't have to pay anything at all," she said. "Tuition, room and board and all fees are free." All students will complete requirements for a North Carolina high school diploma, including passing the competency test, Stringer said. "We expect our students to learn at least twice as much here as they would in public school, simply because we will give them the opportunity to use an4 develop their exceptional abilities," she said. ri cooler ban .stilt in no ejjeci Regulations banning coolers from Kenan Stadium and parking on grass and sidewalks will be enforced at the football game Saturday.
