Green party seeks more local support ADril 7) were black ... and som The Daily Tar Heel Thursday, April 24. 19869B By TRACY HILL Staff Writer Green politics is putting down roots in Chapel Hill. First organized in the late 70s, the Green party evolved from the environ mentalist and feminist movements, taking on an identity and philosophy of its own, said Daniel Graham, a graduate student of political science who is writing his dissertation on Green political economy. "Think globally, act locally, the slogan used by the UNC Campus Y. waf first coined by the Greeny Div estment is a perfect example Graham said. In addit.on to Se- oriented Pjm universal human SKoiltSlSS: decentralization and grassroots democracy. The 50 Greens of Orange County the "Orange Greens," Graham called them have been holding monthly meetings since January, Wes Hare said. Hare drew the group together during his campaign for Chapel Hill mayor last 1 u , Organizer Wes Hare year. Hare said his campaign as a Green candidate "was kind of a pilot ... to . . j v.,-, "Hi intent was see wnai wouiu iffv' ---- rovide to raise questions rather than provide anHTsaid he was trying to convince Chapel Hill to declare itself a nuclear free zone and a sanctuary city for Central American refugees. Proposition Paz. a citizens' referendum t.o measure the level of opposition to U.S. policy in Nicaragua and El Salvador, was his project. Two-th'irds of Chapel Hill voters in the general election also voted on the referendum: 90 percent supported the peace initiative. Hare himself didn't fare so well in the elections, receiving only 515 votes. But the purpose of running had been to advance Green ideas, he said, not to win. The shanties erected UNC by the UNC Anti-Apartheid Support Group was a small step in the right direction, he said. But "it was a narrow kind of action. ... It didn't mobilize the town. "There is a touch of irony that, with one exception, all those workers (who were told to tear down the shanties April 7) were black . . . and some of . the lowest paid workers at the Univer sity," he said. Green values embrace "a cultural rejection of centralized, bureaucratized, dehumanized state apparatus," Graham said. As an alternative they favor a decentralized economy of small worker controlled businesses that would be more labor intensive and use less capital and energy. They criticize the tradi tional drive toward a higher Gross National Product, stressing instead the need to develop human potential, as opposed to material production. Graham said the Greens were at a political disadvantage because the elections system discriminates against alternative parties. One option for U.S. Greens is to work on the fringes of the Democratic Party. Hare said he planned to endorse six candidates in the May 6 primaries, including Kirsten Nyrop for 4th District representative. All the endorsees are Democrats. Eventually, he said, he would like to have candidates run on an independent, truly Green platform. ArtSchool play based on meeting with Wright By SONYA TERRELL Special to the DTH Why would 90-year-old Frank Lloyd Wright, a famous 20th-century archi tect, grant an interview with a 14-year-old journalism student? The answer to this question is what Karyn Traut's play "Remembered Music" is all about. "Music" will premiere along with "The Woman at Farmer's Market," another one-act by Traut, this weekend at the ArtSchool. The author is also directing both plays. The two one-acts are based upon Traut's experiences. The interview with Wright took place when she was at North Phoenix High School in Arizona. Traut said she has lived with guilt since Wright died because she never pub lished the interview in the school newspaper as Wright had requested. Last year, however, she said she realized the interview was meant to be a play rather than a news story. "The event was fictionalized so the characters could breathe and not be restricted," Traut said. The plot revolves aronnH thp tnioal rf 40-vear-r1H who wants to relive her experience and the same person at age 14 who cannot remember the interview. She wrote "Music" to accompany "The Woman," which grew out of an eavesdropping experience in a farmer's market in Los Angeles. "Both plays work together in form and spirit," Traut said. They address identifying and overcoming problems, she added. Traut, who has written nine plays, said it was advantageous to direct one's own work. "As the writer, you have first-hand experience, and if you're also the director, you don't have to worry about other people's visions and whether you trust them with your work," she said. Cast members in both productions are Richard Zaffron, Mary Smith, and Stacey Stowall. "The Woman at Farmer's Market" and "Remembered Music" will be performed April 26 and May 3 at 2 p.m. Call 942-2041 for ticket information. Musician to perform new piece during campus visit By ROB SHERMAN Staff Writer Richard Rodney Bennett, an internationally known English com poser and pianist, will perform his new piece, "Sounds and sweet Aires," for the first time next week on the UNC campus. The piece, written for flute, oboe and piano, was commissioned by WUNC Radio to commemorate its 10th anniversary and is based on a passage from Shakespeare's "The Tempest:" "Be no affeard, the Isle is full of noyses, Sounds and sweet Aires, that give delight and hurt not." The anniversary celebration will end with two concerts by Bennett one here, the other in Greensboro's Dana Auditorium on April 27. Both concerts are sponsored by WUNC, the Josephus Daniels Char itable Foundation and the George Smedes Poyner Foundation. Besides "Aires," the concerts will feature Claude Debussy's "Syrinx" for solo flute and Bennett's "After Syrinx" for oboe and piano. Following intermission, a number of jazz works by Bennett and other crossover jazz-classical musicians like Leonard Bernstein and Andre Previn will be performed. Flutist Rebecca Troxler of Dur ham, Ronald Weedle, principal oboist with the North Carolina Symphony, and Carol Sloane, host of WUNC's weekly program "Sophis ticated Lady," will perform with Bennett. Bennett is a versatile composer of many types of music, including operas, choral and solo vocal pieces and chamber music. He also composed several film scores, including "Blind Date" (1955), "Far From the Madding Crowd" (1967), "Nicholas and Alex andra" (1971) and "Murder on the Orient Express" (1973). After studying at the Royal Academy of Music and with Pierre Bolez in Paris, Bennett established himself as one of the new generation of British composers by the age of 23. Music critic Stephen Walsh said Bennett's music is remarkable because of the "technical assurance and the evidence ... of a refined feeling for line and texture." Bennett writes 12-note music but has also used jazz, neo-Romantic and Russian pastiche styles. He was a professor of music composition at the Peabody Conser vatory in Baltimore until 1979. He maintains residences in New York and London. Richard Rodney Bennett will perform Saturday at 8 p.m. in Hill Hall Auditorium. Tickets are avail able at the WUNC offices in Swain Hall as well as The Bentwood in University Mall and the Record Bar on Franklin Street. In Carrboro tickets may be purchased at Broad Street at 101 B Street. Tickets may also be purchased at the door before the concert. GJitter gropp to make clean sweep' off town By MICHELLE EFIRD Staff Writer April 20-26 has been designated as North Carolina's Clean-up Week, and the newly formed Committee for a Clean Chapel Hill is taking the oppor tunity, to tackle local problem areas. Marjorie Ward of the Institute of Nutrition and Francis DiGiano, a professor of environmental science and engineering at UNC, are members of the committee spearheading the "G.lit ter Day" project Saturday April 26. The project will last from 8 a.m. to noon, and those interested in partici pating are asked to meet at the Depart ment of Public Works off of Airport Road. According to Ward, assignments will be given out during the entire four hours, so people can come anytime during this period. Participants should wear gloves, substantial shoes, slacks and lightweight, visible clothing. The Orange County. Department of Transportation has been working on cleaning area highways U.S. 15-501 and N.C. 54 all week, Ward said. "We are trying to target the areas they don't reach," she said, such as Weaver Dairy Road, Erwin Road and Ephesus Church Road. Greater law enforcement would aid in solving the area litter problem, and truck drivers could help by keeping their covers down, she said. Even though the event falls during exam time, the committee urges stu dents to come out and help by taking a "rake break." The slogan for the day is "Pride is picking up!" Participants are expected to pick up litter in assigned areas and put it in trash bags along the roadside. 6 American Hodrf Association WE'RE FIGHTING FOR YOUR LIFE . f4 1 Avoid the Jottery blues Apply now' All apartments on the bus line to UNC Fantastic Social Program Call today for full information 967-2?31 or 967-2234 In North Carolina call toll-free J -800-672-168 Nationwide, call toll-free 1-800-334-1656 V NURSING BOARDS REVIEW NCLEX PREPARATION FOR PEOPLE WHO CARE! 10 DAY UVE COUHwS T$WTAFEPACTtC 4C3-PAG E STUDY CXZZZ ,tO?YBACKGUARAKTC2 'On Call" Days, Evenings and Weekends 2634 Chapel Hill Blvd., Suite 1 1 2 Durham, NC 27704 (919) 489-8720 M-Th 9:30-9:00; Fri. 9:30-5:00; S & S 10-6 GRADUATION SPECIAL PERM $25 (April 7-May9) Other Services Highlighting $30 Color $15 Haircut for Men and Women $10 All Services Includes ShampooCutBlowdry Ask for Jenny Coke University Beauty Salon 2-B Bolin Heights Chapel Hill, NC 27510 968-1968 TEA TIME DELI STUDENT SPECIAL Save Yourself Time and Money $1.50 off any order of $7.50 or more "A Southern Deli" Specializing in Chicken, BBQ, Fish, and Sandwiches 967-0186 or 929-5318 Delivery Hours 115 N.
