npgeirs-to precede PUC Btkdm
BY DEANNA RUDDOCK
Start Writer .
Play Makers Repertory Company has already introduced
two new programs into its current season to try to draw
more students to its productions and has now incorporated
the talents of the Clef Hangers and the Loreleis into its
campaign to increase student interest in PRC productions.
The Clef Hangers and the Loreleis will perform on alternate
weeks in advance of PRC productions on Student Tuesdays.
Their performances will begin at 7:30 p.m., thirty minutes
before curtain time. They will perform at no extra cost to
theatergoers.
Student Tuesdays is one of the two new programs created
by PRC. It is designed to give students the opportunity to
see a play on an unsubscribed night, when they have a shot
at the best seats in the house. The other new program is
Freshman Wednesdays, which allows freshmen to come to
the first preview of a play at a reduced price.
Sharon Herr, head of audience development, said that
PRC purposely coordinated the Clef Hanger Lorelei .
performances with Student Tuesdays. "We have found that
in past years, Tuesday was a popular night for students,"
Herr said. "Since there are no subscribers on that night,
we hope it will be even more enticing for students."
Jonathan Giles, managing director for PRC, said that
presenting the Clef Hangers and Loreleis before Student
Tuesdays shows represented an attempt to publicize the
Tuesday program.
He came up with the idea for using the choral groups
last year. He said that before one of the performances of
PRC's Baby With the Bathwater last year, he watched
students walk by the PlayMakers Theatre and into Memorial
Hall to see the Clef Hangers.
"I decided two things that night," Giles said. "First, I
decided never to compete against the Clef Hangers again
and, secondly, I decided that I was going to try to get them
to participate with us in trying to attract more students to
our plays."
Members of both the Clef Hangers and the Loreleis said

that they felt performing for PlayMakers would be beneficial
to them.
44 1 think that it will be a good experience and give us
good exposure," Margaret Moore, business manager of the
Loreleis, said.
Formed last year, the Loreleis have just reorganized.
Moore, a sophomore from Raleigh, said that this year the
Loreleis had good leadership and had improved their
repertoire, changing styles from slow, serious music to bebop.
Hugh Tilson, business manager for the Clef Hangers, said
that he thought the performances would be good publicity
for the group and would help them become the campus
tradition they would like to be.
"We are trying to get entrenched and established in the
campus," said Tilson, a senior from Raleigh. "We have been
around for eight years and would like to see some tradition
started, but tradition obviously takes time."
Mark Hebert, director of the Clef Hangers, said that this
year's group was more motivated. "We are lucky to be able
to do it, and we take the obligation very seriously," said
Hebert, a graduate student from Sunnyvale, Calif. "We owe
something to this music."
Giles said that he would like to see the Clef Hangers become
a campus tradition and would like to see them make Student
Tuesdays a tradition also. As it stands now, he said, Student
Tuesdays may or may not be a part of next year's program.
"It's pretty scary," Giles said. "We spent a lot more money
to generate interest than everyone expected. This cost may
prohibit Student Tuesdays next year."
Giles said he thought the disappearance of Student
Tuesdays would be a loss to students. "There are few
professional theater companies on campuses in the United
States," he said. "The opportunity is a marvelous one, and
most students don't know it's there."

Private self-defense classes are avail
able to almost anyone who is interested
these days.
Shotokan Karate of America, for
example, is a worldwide organization
located in countries such as Israel and
Japan. More than 1,000 Shotokan
organizations exist in the United States,
where the organization is 30 years old
this year. ;
"We're a non-profit organization
designed solely for teaching," said Larry
Lazarus, who organized Shotokan in
Chapel Hill.' The instructors, who are
not paid, promote the sport's mental
aspects, he said.
Shotokan began a special six-week
course, "Women's Self Defense for Life
Threatening Situations," Sept. 11.
Taught by Tim Rentsch, a graduate
student in computer science, the course
meets Wednesday evenings from 5:30
to 7 at the Hillel Foundation, 210 W.
Cameron Ave.
"We hope we're educating them to
look for danger before it happens and
to get out of danger before it gets
serious," Rentsch said.
"You can't really teach people very
much in six weeks," he said. "In order
to be effective, they must practice about
10 minutes every day. I try to teach them
a few technical trainings that might get
them out of certain situations. I dont
want to promise any miracle cures. We
tell our regular karate students they
won't see any improvements or changes
for at least six months." .
Rentsch said he had practiced karate
for 15 years, yet was unsure whether
he could effectively deal with an attack.
Mental discipline training, he stressed,
is the most important part of karate
and self-defense training.
"People's bodies freeze in difficult
situations," Rentsch said. -"It's purely
mental." v;.': A
The self-defense class teaches five
points, Rentsch said.
"Be alert," Rentsch said. "Think
about things ahead of time. Next, avoid
conflict. Statistics say if you choose to
fight you could come out all right, but
there's a better chance youll be seriously
hurt. Third, run away and yell for help
while you're running. Most people are
reluctant to be a public nuisance in that
way, even in those situations. Fourth,
practice. Finally, if you have to fight
in a life-threatening situation, you can't
be nice to your opponent. We tell our
students to destroy your opponent."
"Confrontation drives people to
extremes," Rentsch said. "I tell students
to just resist, say no."

There are differences between self
defense and karate, Rentsch said, with
some overlap on technical things.
"One thing I'm stressing in my class
is that the techniques are applied only
in life-threatening situations," Rentsch
said. "You fight when you have no
choice. The decision as to what you do
is entirely up to you. We don want
to lull them into a false sense of security.
If you make a mistake, the instructor
won't be there. It's their own safety
that's motivating their decision as to
what to do.
"In karate we think it's important to
learn those technical trainings, even the
difficult (ones)," he said. "Certain
situations we practice could never
happen. We do them for learning, with
lots of emphasis on mental training."
Lazarus said he had considered
starting a self-defense course for about
a year. UNC graduate student Sharon
Stewart's recent kidnapping and
murder prompted him to offer the
course now, he said.
The course is not necessarily cumul
ative, Lazarus said, so people still can
join. Shotokan charges a minimal fee
to cover rent for the facility, he said.
"It's a very pragmatic course for
women so they can understand the
mental techniques used in defense,"
Lazarus said. "By 'pragmatic,' we mean
for women to come to the class just
as they are in street clothes or
whatever they normally wear. That way
nothing's artificial."
Jesse Bowen, chief instructor and
fourth-degree black belt at Karate
International, is planning a three-week
program in basic self-defense. It will
cost about $20 per person.
Karate International has trained
students in martial arts for 10 years,
Bowen said. The organization has about
14 schools in North Carolina, including
two in Durham. Bowen said he had
about 800 students in those two pro
grams and hoped to open a school in
Chapel Hill by the end of September.
Bowen said he had received about 40
responses to an ad he ran about the
self-defense course.
"Moms who usually bring their
children in for classes are now getting
interested in karate for themselves,"
Bowen said. He expects a good turnout
for this special program.
"Self-defense techniques involve
more throws and judo-like techniques,"
said David Coleman, president of the
University Taekwondo and Zen Club.
The club plans to offer a two-month
course in self-defense and self-control.
Seong Soo Choi, a first-degree black
belt in judo, will teach the course. Other

"Well have to see how much interest
itll generate," said Coleman, a graduate
student from Atlanta. "If we only get
three or four responses, we couldn't
have it."
"Several people have asked us about
self-defense," Coleman said. The club
emphasizes self-defense techniques, but
mainly teaches karate, which is more
Korean and emphasizes the use of the
feet, he said.
The club practices Mondays and
Wednesdays at 6 p.m., Fridays at 5:30
p.m. and Sundays at 3:30 p.m. in the
multi-purpose room at Fetzer Gym.
"We're open to anyone," Coleman said,
"but mainly UNC people, though we
do have a couple high school students."
The Taekwondo and Zen club has
about 25 members, including five
women.
The University used to offer self
defense classes, but now only offers
karate, said Angela Lumpkin, director
of the UNC physical education activites
program.
"If sufficient student interest in re
installing self-defense in the P.E.
department is generated, well offer it
again," Lumpkin said. (Interested
students should contact the activities
department in 205 Woolen Gym, 962
2021.) Lumpkin said the self-defenese
course used "BKSS," which stands for
bite, kick, scratch and scream. A police
whistle or some other loud noise also
attracts attention.
"My approach to teaching self
defense is, first: Prevent the situation
from happening in the first place,"
Lumpkin said. "Lock doors, roll up car
windows, don't run in darkness and
avoid alleys. Second: Take certain
action. Get away and leave. I do not
take the prespective that the person
should fight it out, though you must
react immediately. ,
"A female, especially, is not going to
be able to defend herself against males
by fighting because of the size of the
differential."
The two best places to strike a male
attacker are the eyes and the groin, she
said. "Those can at least temporarily
incapacitate the attacker enough for you
to get away."
- Lumpkin said students should not be
afraid that they couldn't hit hard
enough. "Hardness is not as effective
as the place you hit them," she said.
Illiteracy from page 1
than eight years of schooling, have not
graduated from high school or read
below an eighth grade level. The goal
of the program is to bring the students
up to an eighth grade level in reading,
math and English grammar, Taylor
said.
North Carolina has 835,620 adults 25
and older who have not finished high
school, she said.
Taylor said a typical ABE class meets
twice a week for three hours. Classes
are offered during the day and at night
and can be found in locations other than
community college campuses.
ABE recently started using compu
ters as teaching tools to help students
learn more quickly, Taylor said.
"The students who have been intro
duced to the computer have been really
excited about it and it's difficult to get
them to leave the computer," she said.
While the ABE program works
directly with adult illiterates, the Adult
Literacy Initiative program exists
mainly to inform the public about the
problem of illiteracy, Bailey said.
"The objectives of the program are
to make the public more aware of this
problem and to make individuals who
need help aware that help is available,"
Bailey said.
She said the Initiative was begun by
the Department of Education after
President Reagan announced his plan
to combat illiteracy on Sept. 7, 1983.
