Graduate voting districts for campus
elections will be redrawn if the Campus
Governing Council on Wednesday passes a
bill approved by the Rules and Judiciary
Committee Thursday night.
Graduate students are underrepresented
because of current districting, said Alan Ross
(Dist. 6), who wrote the bill. Under legislation
passed last month by the CGC, no district
may contain more than 759 students or fewer
than 621.
"Given the number of graduate districts,
if you filled all the districts to 759, there were
still a dozen (students) left over," he said.
To keep the sizes of the districts within the
allowable limits, Ross created another district.
Ross said he tried to group together
graduate schools in related fields, but the sizes
of the schools would not always allow him
to do that.
Committee chairwoman Jaye Sitton (Dist.
13) said she was pleased with the grouping
of the graduate schools.

Chapel Hill High School's Mame, which
opened Thursday in the school's Cultural Arts
Center, is a production that suffers from too
much money and ambition. The lavish sets
and countless costumes designed by director
Mark Nielson fail to disguise the abundance
of overacting and lack of enunciation which
most of the actors displayed.
Mame is the story of Mame Dennis and
her orphaned nephew Patrick, who comes to
stay with her and as a result is exposed early
to the joys of martinis and free love. Mame
should come across as a star of the Jazz Age
but when played by the pixie-cute Lucie
Bowes, becomes horribly affected. Bowes
places her hands on her hips and wiggles her
shoulders to punctuate all her sentences. One
wonders why Nielson didn't give her anything
else to do.
The sets change almost as often as Mame
changes dresses, which is a frequent occur
rence. The set for scenes at the plantation
which is owned by Mame's fiance (compe
tently played by Andy Crocker) could be a

"The districts are done in such a way that
it was very consistent in the type of schools
put together," she said. "Before (Ross's
redistricting bill), it looked like it was done
more geographically, but now it's done with
the subject matter of the department."
Robert Powers (Dist. 4) said he liked the
new districts, but geographic grouping made
it easier for representatives to talk to people
in different schools.
"One of the advantages in my district is
the geographical location of all the buildings
is very close," he said. "You don't have contact
with people outside your department unless
you make the trip (to other other buildings)."
If the buildings in one district were widely
separated, a CGC representative might not
have as much of a chance to talk to people
in other departments, Powers said.
Some members of the committee also
expressed concern that some districts did not
contain related schools, which could reduce
voter turnout or lead to a large school
dominating the district.

During one of the four or five songs in which
Mame and nephew Patrick declare their love
for each other, they actually sit on a window
frame that flies through the sky.
As Mame's best friend, Vera Charles, Betsy
Merten acts even broader and more vulgar
than this broad vulgar part really calls for.
She relies far too much on mugging as
opposed to just letting the lines speak for
themselves. Both Patricks (Jake Buxton as
ten-year-old Patrick and John Schoultz as the
lad between 19 and 29) look fine, but are
barely audible.
The highlights of this production are the
actors in small parts. Those who come
immediately to mind include Pauline Fried
rich as the beauty salon owner for whom
Mame works briefly after the 1929 stock
market crash and Lisa Sauvage as Gloria
Upsom, Patrick's "top-drawer" girlfriend.

different sizes of the schools prohibited neat
groupings.
"I got down to where I had to do something
with (the schools that wouldn't fit)," he said.
"If that's a serious objection, well try to do
something about it. Otherwise, I'd just say
forget it."
Sitton said: "The election itself is not what
bothers me. What would bother me would
be contact (with constituents) after elections,
but with the apathy we've had this year (that
wouldn't be a big problem). "

Edsall as Agnes Gooch, Mame's repressed
secretary. When Vera and Mame take off
Agnes' glasses during a makeover session, one
believes she is blind without them. Another
standout is Vance Weatherly, who really can '
dance and whose affected acting makes sense
in his few small parts.
The choreography by Bobbie Bounds
Embree and Lauren Lorentz de Haas is nice
and clear, if a little stale. Though the dances
are performed reasonably well by the chorus,
the overall effect is that the choreographers
have forgotten that they are working with high "
school students instead of Broadway gypsies.
The problem with most of the songs is the ,
orchestra. It is too loud and often off-key.
The singers who have trouble getting out each
word clearly anyway simply can't compete.
A lot of talent and work went into this
production. It is a crime that cast and crew
didn't concentrate on simpler things like basic
movements and singing acting skills. There
are some key elements missing in the
production, and all the flash and dash of
Mame does not provide adequate distraction
from them.

not the result "of a human rights policy pushing
a tottering friend over the brink," McGovern said.
Instead, the United States made its mistake in
consistently ignoring the Shah's systematic abuse
of human rights, he said.
- Nicaragua was a similar situation, McGovern
said.
"It wasnt the fact that we put pressure on
Somoza that brought him down. It was his own
people who said enough is enough. . . . I for one
am glad he's gone," he said.
Though the Reagan administration believes
Central American problems are caused by the
Soviet Union and Cuba, the problems in that area
have deeper causes, McGovern said.
"If we were able to push a button and every
Russian and Cuban would disappear tonight, there
would still be trouble in Central America," he said.
Failure to apply pressure to allies who practice
human abuse will likely lead the United States
into more situations such as Iran and Nicaragua,
McGovern said. He quoted a Yugoslav dissident
who said "practically every totalitarian country
was previously authoritarian . . . one grows from
the other."

"We are more threatened by a nuclear buildup

Finlator said.
Dr. Norman Coulter Jr., president of the local
chapter of Physicians for Social Responsibility,
and a member of the UNC Medical School staff,
said the United States and the Soviet Union were
too occupied with trying to prevent a repetition
of World War II to accept the realities of a nuclear
age.
Colter described his visit to the Soviet Union
and said the Soviets do not want war.
"The Soviet Union is not like America. But it
is not an evil empire," he said. "The people don't
want war. They have been through hell already."
Kirsten Nyrop, candidate for the Democratic
nomination for the 4th district seat in the U.S.
House of Representatives, said while Congres
sional talk was centered upon the national debt
and thfr national budget, and many Americans
were "voting out of their pocketbooks," there was
no issue more important than ending the arms
race.
"It has taken a presidency such as that of Ronald
Reagan to pull us out of our complacency . . .
to make us realize peace is as elusive as ever,"
she said.

arian regimes and communist totalitarian regimes
can be compared to the relationship between
smoking and lung cancer," McGovern read from
the Yugoslav quote.
McGovern said there were three concerns which
directed the United States to an aggressive human
rights policy. The United States has a moral
obligation to improve human rights, particularly
in countries which it assists, some of which still
practice abuses such as torture, he said.
"Combating these evils, is in my view more than
enough reason for an aggressive human rights
policy rather than a policy of constructive
engagement," he said.
Along with a moral obligation, the United States
should work for human rights as a practical means,
in the belief that its own national interest and
image is affected by the behavior of countries it
assists, McGovern said.
U.S. human rights policy should also be
influenced by the fact that the United States has
considerable economic and political leverage
which "enables us to do something beyond vocal
concerns," McGovern said.
"It isnt always heeded, but the voice of the
United States is not ignored," he later added.

did not ratify treaties, it could pass strongly worded
resolutions supporting settlement of the arms issue,
and, deny funding for furthering the Strategic
Defense Initiative program.
Marguerite Arnold, a freshman anthropology
major from Blowing Rock, said she believed
distrust was the main problem the United States
and the Soviet Union had to overcome.
. Arnold said she believed the lower-than-expected
turnout for the march was a sign of a
"disgusting amount of apathy on the part of this
university."
"If only one percent had turned out. that would
have been over 200 students," she said. "We have
about that many people here.but a lot of them
are from the community."
Susan McCracken, an junior American Studies
major from Sanford, said she was marching
because she believed the "Star Wars" program was
"completely unfeasible."
McCracken said she would not trust either
nation to keep a weapons agreement, but that
progress would be made if the Strategic Defense
Initiative were abandoned and both countries were
to agree to stop building nuclear weapons.
Tonie Goldstein, a junior health education
major, also said she was not sure either nation
could be completely trusted to keep an arms
agreement, but "just an agreement would be a
start," she said.
