Student injured in fall from Lexington roof From Phi Staff Reports Early Sunday morning, Sophomore Peter Breen fell approximately ten feet from the roof of The Lee Manor to a lower roof of the same building. Breen, who had climbed to the top of the building, the tallest in Lexington, via a fire escape with several friends Patrick Madden, Chris Brooks, Erin Mullaney, and Katie Moore. Madden called Emergency Medical Services from the Phi Kappa Sigma fraternity house and Breen was taken to the Stonewall Jackson Hospital where he was diagnosed with a broken clavicle. At 7:30 a.m., Breen was released into the custody of the Lexington Police Department and charged with trespassing and drunk in public. Breen was held injail until 5:30 p.m. when he was picked up by his roommate Burke Willard. Breen was taken to the Washington and Lee Infirmary, and after being questioned by Infirmary staff, Breen was returned to Stonewall Jackson, where a CAT scan was performed and a fractured skull was discovered. At this time, he was airlifted to Roanoke Memorial Hospital. At 11:30 p.m. on Sunday, surgery was performed ' 9 to remove a blood clot from the iriside of Breen’s skull.Breen’s total injuries have been diagnosed as the blood clot which was removed, a broken clavicle, and bruised ribs and kidneys. recollect the flight.

The day indeed proved a special one. That day Kedem regained his freedom and his life when American soldiers liberated the German concen- tration camp in which Kedem had been living. Thursday night in Northern Auditorium, 50years and one day after his liberation, Kedem reflected on his experiences behind the barbed wires of six Nazi concentration camps. In his speech, sponsored by Con- tact, Kedem offered a descrip- tion both of the wartime hor- rors through the eyes of an 1 1- year old and of his own under- standing of events half a cen- tury later. Born in Poland in 1934, Kedem first became ac- quainted with the Nazi regime in 1939, when the Germans invaded Poland and began lim- itingJewish behavior. Kedem recalls the enforced wearing of arm bands and badges. The apartmentthathadonce been home to Kedem’s family alone soon housed six fami- lies, under German command. “Immediately,” Kedem added, “the fabric of human life started falling apart.” The ‘war effort’ justified all adjustments German con- trol brought to the life of Pol- ish Jews. Kedem described a work permit as a “passport to life.” Not to be useful to the state became grounds for death. The Germans soon built a ghetto for the Jewish commu- nity, enforcing absolute Ger- man control. The site chosen for the barracks was the local cemetary. Kedem saw fellow Jews forced to open the graves for gold and riches, with all prof- its donated to the Nazi cause.

He also time-not tabloidization. By MICHAEL HEWLETT Phi Associate Editor With C—Span cameras panning Lee Chapel, visiting professor of journal- ism Roger Mudd chastised the increas- ing tabloidization of the news profes- sion and reflected on his years at Wash- ington and Lee University. He described how students made fun of former W&L presidents who thrusted their canes as they walked and professors who forgot their students’ names when calling roll. Despite the jokes, Mudd recalls what he learned about intangible things such as honor, integrity and dignity, he said. “I can’t think of a place where my code of ethics got a finer sharpening.” Mudd, who graduated from W&L in 1950 and earned a master’s degree in history from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1951, deliv- ered the annual Robert L. Telford Dis- tinguished Lecture entitled “You Can Go Home Again.” Better known as the man who al- most got Walter Cronkite’s CBS anchorship, Mudd was chief Washing- V ton correspondent, chief political cor- respondent, co-anchor of the NBC , Nightly ‘News, co-anchor of “Meet the Press,” and co-anchor of the magazine shows, “American Almanac” and “1986.” In 1987, he joined MacNeil/ Lehreras an essayist and congressional correspondent.

Providing accurate in- Winter rush approved By BETHANY BAUMAN Phi Staff Member Winter Rush is now a reality. On Monday, eighty six members of the faculty voted unanimously in favor of two rush proposals authored by the Student Affairs Committee. The first proposal, which was ap- proved by the SAC 7-4-1, states that fraternity rush should be held in Winter Term beginning in January 1997. The details of the rush program will be determined by the lnterfraternity Coun- cil and the SAC. The second proposal, unanimously approved by the SAC, endorses the lFC’s plan to institute a shortened pledge period to take place immediately following 1995 Fall Term men’s rush. Next year’s rush will be similar to what occurred in 1994. Theideaofmoving men’s rush from Fall to Winter Term was first sug- gested by Professor of Physics Thomas Williams. Williams initiated the proposal because of the results of university wide studies done over the past six years, including that of the Coeducation Review Committee, which focused on the social aspects of life at Washington and Lee. These studies recommended that a deferred rush would be more beneficial for the students. Williams also cites letters by Deans Rrrscin and Manning which strongly supported Winter Rush as rea- sons for initiating the proposal. Williams believes that, “...what po- tentially could be gained on the part of the students is a more rational choice...Freshmen will have a better chance to become accustomed to the academic rhythm of the place...before making a commitment in a social way. After a semester, the ability to mesh thosethings will be better. I think other activities at the university will be seen, and looked at more carefully by the freshmen, because they will have the time in the first semester,” Williams found support for his idea from the faculty and administrators. Dean of the College John Elrod be- lieves that a deferred rush will allow both freshmen and upperclassmen in fraternities to get a better sense of which students will fit in at which houses. Freshmen decisions will be based pri- marily on their comfort and common interests with the fraternity, not a flurry of rush activities. Elrod also believes that, “It is very important for freshmen to have a solid, unencumbered aca- demic experience right away because this is...an academic institution.” Fresh- men need a chance to get to know the faculty, the curriculum, the level of demand, and have a chance to get to know each other before they are di- vided into pledge classes, Elrod said. President John Wilson agreed with his successor, stating that, “The pri- macy ofrush coming so early in the fall tends in the minds of many students and...parents to distort the priorities of the institution...The first objective is to bring the primacy of the academic pro- gram and getting adjusted to a new set of expectations back and to give the faculty an opportunity to really work with these students without having a very important social agenda going on at the same time.” Members of the IFC have opposed the idea of Winter Rush since its con- ception. President Ryan Connolly ex- plained, “The IFC would have hoped that it did not pass. We supported Fall Rush. However, we also understand the faculty’s position, and now that it has passed, we’ll be willing to make it work the best that it can.” Despite Connolly ’s assertion, many fraternity members have doubts about the effectiveness of a Winter Rush. Many fraternity men voiced concerns about membership and finances. It is believed that the smaller houses will have trouble competing with houses with larger budgets. These smaller houses fear that their membership may fall below the quota necessary to keep their charter. Most fraternities are also concerned that they will experience a loss of revenue. Opposition to Winter Rush has not stopped with fraternities. Sororities are also concerned that their rush will be affected by the change. Freshman Kappa Kappa Gamma Carson Flowers said, “Fall Rush helps sorority rush in that the females see guys getting ex- cited ahmit the Greek svstem and it helps us get excited also. The Greek system as a whole will be affected by Winter Rush, not just the fraternities.” Mary Michael Pettyjohn added that moving rush from Fall to Winter now casts doubts on what freshmen men will be able to do for social weekends like Homecoming and Christmas. The overriding concern among stu- dents is that there has been an en- croachment on their autonomy. Presi- dent Wilson believes, “On social mat- ters [students] want to feel that they have control entirely 01' the shape of their social lives...It’s an autonomy question...I respect that point of view...I hope that students would understand that the faculty have been given the authority by the trustees to set out the parameters of the academic and social life in the university. They have del- egated that social side to the students...They always had the author- ity on reserve. Now when the aca- demic program then it certainly gave license to the faculty to exercise its authority.” The faculty’s Monday vote has not closed the debate concerning Winter Rush, but has moved that debate into a new stage. The questions aboutwhether or not the proposal is an attack on student autonomy or whether partici- pation in the Greek system will dimin- ish are relatively unimportant. The relevant concern is how effectively the IFC and SAC will be able to work out the details of Winter Rush and how these committees and the administra- tion will deal with any negative mem- bership or financial ramifications of the change. \ Oh, What a night!! 3; ': Rig File Photo Students revel in Tear Night, W&L’s infamous night of debauchery OCR::/Vol_094/WLURG39_RTP_19950505/WLURG39_RTP_19950505_002.2.txt PAGE 2 The World E Rwandan Army puts ‘soldiers on trial Fourteen Tutsi soldiers were charged in a Rwandan military court with aggrivated murder and other human rights crimes against the Hutu population in the wake of the year long conflict between the two rival groups. The government hopes that these trials will demonstrate that the dominant armed forces are not above the law. Concurrently, the Rwandan government indefinitely postponed trials for approximately 30,000 Hutus accused of being connected with the massacre of Tutsis last year before Tutsi rebels seized power from the Hutu led govem- ment. JusticeMinister Alphonse Marie Nkubito claims to have sus- pended the trialsbecause of a lack of money and magistrates to hear the cases. Mafia trial begins Forty two alleged Mafia leaders went on trial this week for the 1992 car bomb murderof Giovanni Falcone. Falcone, a state prosecutor, was the first to unravel the inner workings of the Sicilian Mafia. He secured long term jail sentences for 338 Mafia associates in 1987, including major crime boss Salvatore Riina. It is also believed that Falcone was expected to expose links between the Sicilian Mafia and Italy’s Chris- tian Democrat led political regime. Kuchma meets with Pope On Wednesday, Ukrainian President Leonard Kuchma initiated a four day trip to Italy with a discussion with Pope John Paul II about some church property disputes. Kuchma claims that property belonging to the Ukranian Catholic Church was confiscated by the Soviet Union after dictator Joseph Stalin forced the church to merge with the Russian Orthodox Church. Despite the legitimization of the Ukrainian Catholic Church following the collapse of the Soviet Union, property disputes persist. 7 ate?’ The Nation Foster testifies before Senate On Tuesday. President Clinton’s nominee for surgeon general, Henry W. Foster, Jr., testified before the Senate Labor and Human Resources Committee. Republicans on the committee who are consid- ering his nomination question the effectiveness of Foster’s teenage pregnancy prevention program, his knowledge of a controversial syphi- lis study on African American men before it became public in 1972, his performance of hysterectomies to sterilize mentally retarded women, and his high abortion record. Foster, who if confirmed will replace the fired Joycelyn Elders, tried to convince the committee that he is a man of integrity who has the qualifications to be surgeon general. Progress in-Oklahoma City bombing investigation At daybreak on Tuesday, Gary Alan Land and Robert Jacks were arrested a Missouri hotel. The two were obtained by the FBI because their recent travels have parallelled those of bombing suspect Timothy McVeigh. However, investigators now doubt that Land is the second bomber for whom they have been searching. The FBI wants to retain the two men in custody though, because of what investigators claim to be suspicious circumstances. Meanwehile, 176 have been confirmed dead, leaving 37 unaccounted for. US). accepts Cubans held at base The 2,100 refugees who fled Communist ruled Cuba and are cur- rently being detained at Guantanamo Bay will soon be allowed to migrate to the United States. On Tuesday, the Clinton Administration reversed its policy announcing that those currently at the Naval base would be allowed to migrate, while any who attempt to in the future will be forcibly returned to Cuba. Gen. John J. Sheehan, commander in chief of the U.S. Atlantic Command that oversees Guantanamo Bay, stated that concerns over'the refugee center’s one million dollar per day cost and the possibility of unrest this summer forced Tuesday’s abrupt policy change.

Weddle says he dropped out of the race because he does not have the time to run a campaign due to events in his personal life.

Teachers to receive higher pay in Roanoke The Roanoke School Board hopes to raise salaries of city teachers to a nationally competitive level. On Tuesday, the board met with the City Council to review the proposed $77.6 million school budget. Board member Charles Day claims that salary increases will move the Roanoke into the ranks of the top 25 in Virginia. The School Board also hopes to reduce primary class size, reduce the dropout rate, and lessen the gap between black and white students’scores on the Iowa Test of Basic Skills. Allen’s approval rating dropped In the past nine months, Gov. George Allen’s approval rating has dropped about thirteen percentage points. However, a poll taken by the Virginia Commonwealth University showed that 15 percent rate Allen’s performance as excellent, 38 percent as good, 32 percent as fair, and 15 percent as poor. A poll taken last July, 66 percent believed that Allen had done a good or excellent job.

You sleep through your first class, skip lunch to write a paper due at 1:00, fail a quiz, and have three conflicting meetings that night. You’re exhausted, irritable, and sick. You’re suffering from stress. Nearly every student at Washington and Lee has been stressed at least once. After all, this university can be a tense place. Pressures from academics, Greek life, relationships, and extracurriculars can push a student to the limit. A certain amount of stress can be positive. It can motivate students to manage their time better. However, too much stress can be problematic. At minimum, stress can disrupt sleeping habits, eating patterns, and work schedules. Physical ailments and negative psychological effects can result from increasing stress. At worst, over- whelming stress can completely over- run a student. A student can shut down and cease to function. We’ve all heard the night- mare stories of stressed out peers “flip- ping out.” _ She stayed in bed for 4 days. He doesn’t eat at all. She stopped going to classes. He doesn’t talk to any of his friends anymore. She attempted suicide. Stress in college can be difficult to manage. This Phi special report on stress at Washington and Lee will highlight the causes of stress, it’s side effects, pro- files of students under stress, and tips for dealing with stress. Spring Term may seem like an un- usual time to present this report, but looking at stress in a characteristically laid back time may help crystallize the issue. . . Most importantly, we hope our read- ers will use the following information to their benefit. College stress can be dangerous. Knowingthewamingsigns and coping skills can make every one’s life a little bit easier. Causes for stress vary among W&L undergrads The reasons for stress are as varied as its manifes- tations. Ask 20 students why they are stressed and one will get 20 different answers. Despite the many different factors causing stress, underlying similarities are clearly identifiable. Causes for stress can include lack of sleep, mis- management of time, drinking too much or for the wrong reasons, illness, and not eating properly. Psy- chological problems, of course, can lead to stress. The death of a family member, breaking up with a signifi- cant other, and switching residences cause stress. Studies have shown that even happy events cause stress. Marriages, new births, and graduations, while at W&L. assignment successfully. be embarrassing. to chest pains. Every Washington and Lee student deals with a certain amount of stress. Some deal with considerably more. You know who they are. They’re the ones who chair two committees, are an officer in their frater- nity, overload every term, and still manage to have a fantastic social life. We callthem super- achievers and they toler- ate more than their fair share of stress. You think you have it bad, take a look at these guys: Laura Purcell ’95: Editor of» the Calyx, member of the‘ Univer-. sity Wind Ensemble, tour guide at the Stonewall Jackson House, member of Pi Beta Phi sorority, and Secretary of the Pub- lications Board. “I have problems get- ting to sleep at night be- cause of stress,” said Purcell. She attempts to deal with her stress by keep- ing an appointment book. Purcell complains of hav- ing trouble relaxing and eating properly. She recommends bi- cycling to combat stress and cutting down on caffeine. cause for celebration, lead to stress albeit positive stress. Washington and Lee University students do not deal with such occasions on a regular basis. They affect the post-college adult population much more frequently. However, stress does impact student life. The image of the care-free college student is a myth. Life as a student can be very taxing for a number of reasons, especially Associate Dean of Students Anne Schroer-Lamont believes many stress-related problems result from stu- dents having difficulty managing time. Since they are so bright, many students tend to procrastinate like they did in high school because it was possible to complete a major assignment in a couple of hours, according to Schroer-Lamont. In college, stu- dents try to pull off a major assignment in two hours when they need four to six hours to complete the Students have a false belief in their ability to rescue themselves at the 12th hour, said Schroer-Lamont. “Work hard, play hard,” W&L’s unofficial motto, certainly takes a toll. The rigorous academic standards can cause stress for the diligent student. Given the increase of the standards for the Dean’s List and ‘Honor Roll, the pressure will be heightened next term. The rampant alcohol misuse on campus is also dan- gerous. Hangovers and binge drinking not only physi- cally push the student’s body to the limit, dealing with social ramifications of a raucous drunken episode can The symptoms of stress are clearly visible: Trouble sleeping, overeating or poor eating, stomach cramps, diarrhea, a general feeling of malaise, nausea, and shortness of ‘breath are tell-tale signs of stress. Schroer-Lamont said there are over 1400 body changes to stress ranging from twitching heart muscles Closing yourself off to friends is a good indicator of inordinate amounts of stress. Often times those who suffer from stress will increase their smoking or drink- “Some days I wake up and wish I had more time for fun,” said Purcell. Purcell says one can avoid stressful situations by learning to “say no and not raising your hand.” Karlene Jennings ’96: Chair of the Alco- hol Review Committee, Vice-Chair of Women and Leadership, Student Development Commit- tee, tour guide at the Stonewall Jackson House, Health Education Committee member, and member of Alpha Phi Omegaservicefratemity. “[My activities] don’t stress me out, it’s when we have major events in each that conflict,” said Jennings. She says her commit- ments are draining, but she makes time for her- self frequently. Asked why she keeps herself so busy, Jennings replied, “I enjoy myself by see- ing the good that l’ve done and that which l’ve accomplished.” Jennings admits the worst thing about her work is when she is under appreciated. She advises other stu- ing to forget. It’s important to note that everyone will react differently to stress and looking for signs of stress can be difficult. If stress goes untreated the sufferer may begin to develop more serious physical problems and diseases. Colitis, constipation, and various self- destructive nervous ticks like pulling out your hair can indicate someone under stress. Schroer-Lamont recalled a story of a room- mate who had the nervous habit of plucking entire patches of hair out during stressful events. While under stress one is also more likely to catch common illnesses that circulate on campus. So what leads to stress? Depression, low self-esteem, and perfection- ism can cause stress. Critical self-talk can also have negative consequences. I ’m stupid. I ’m fat. No one likes me. Why should I try ? I ’m not good enough. I have no life. The world would be better off without me. These are examples of critical self-talk. Helping a friend deal with too much stress can be emotionally exhaustive and you may need to seek help from one of the university’s counselors. treatment, and suicidal thoughts. Schroer-Lamont said professional attention is needed when a roommate has skipped three to four classes, refuses to visit the Health Center for begins expressing Those students most susceptible to stress- related problems are those without a good net- work of support, said Schroer-Lamont. Having a couple of close friends with whom one can share stressful events helps to diffuse that stress. Contrary to popular belief, stress does regu- larly impact student life. Knowing the warning dents to know their limits when making com- mitments. Michael Weinfeld ’95: President of the StudentActivitiesBoard, Vice President of Kappa Alpha fraternity, and member of Kathekon. “The stress helps me to perform better and forces me to manage my time,” said Weinfeld. He admitted that his busy schedule can take away from his social life, but goofing off with his friends helps. The big SAB weekends stress him the most. He be- lieves taking everything one day at a time puts all he does into perspective. Weinfeld recom- mends, “Don’t let your activities take over your life like I have sometimes.” Elise Brown ’95: PresidentofPanhellenic, Dorm Counselor, Stu- dent Affairs Committee, Kathekon, Student De- velopment Committee, Student Recruitment Committee, and member of Pi Beta Phi sorority. “I got stressed out a lot this year, but I deal with it myself,” said Brown. KEDEM: Learning to live again, from page 1 understood that his Jewish blood alone “excluded me from permission to be alive.” Despite its misery, the ghetto still nourished a close-knit community, but even this did not last long; deportation to concentration camps caused the population of Kedem’s community to dwindle from 20,000 to a few thousand as trains took away more and more people.Kedem himself was finally re- moved, separated from his family and his past. His name became a number -—Bl4433— and his past a memory. Relocated to a concentration camp, Kedem understood thatonly work could save him from execution, and secured a job in the nearby brush factory. . Living in this and other concentra- tion camps, “the whole concept” of Kedem’s life “was to live through to the next day.” Concentration camp prisoners re- ceived at most only 30% of the amount of food necessary to sustain life, and Kedem suggests that in the very depri- vation of food the victims had a “built— in realization of no future.” In spite of his seemingdoom, Kedem soon obtained the possibility of a fu- ture. A professor in the camp looked out for the young boy, and added his name to the Schindler’s List of Holly- wood fame.“To get on Schindler’s list,” Kedem explained, “was a struggle to survive.” Spending time in a total of six con- centration camps, Kedem acquired sur- vival techniques which enabled him to act without regret, and to live without feeling.“The control of emotions was total,” Kedem recalls. “You could not make any friends, because you lost them and the loss was too great.” signs and being able to recognize them in your- self can help a student successfully combat the harmful effects of stress. A - Super-Achievers -- Super Stress? She says keeping busy helps her deal with the harmful effects of stress. Taking hot showers and exercising also helps. What keeps her going is her desire to accomplish something in the areas in which she is interested. Ryan Connolly ’96: The worst part of his busy life is when he doesn’t have control over his own time. For him, it’s almost like he is trapped. Connolly urges stu- dents to get involved in activities they really en- joy and not those which only pad the resume. Associate Dean of Students Anne Schroer- I_.amont says that super- achievers need to learn to say no. Since they are very reliable and trust- worthy, many will call on them forservice. They must pick wisely that which with they will in- volve themselves. Schroer-Lamont said student leaders should sort through their priori- ties. Decide which ac- tivity you most want to impact and focus. Too many commitments can only lead to stress and early bum-out. The same fierce attitude with which Kedem could adapt to a life where a bullet was always only so far away, proved destructive to his own charac- ter. ‘‘It was great equipment for sur- vival,” Kedem explains, “but terrible if you stay alive.” When American troops arrived in the final camp in which Kedem served, he was an 11-year old deeply removed from the concepts of honor and love. For nearly the next fifty years, Kedem tried to forget his years as Nazi prisoner. The chance for education in a place far from his childhood years was irresistable to Kedem, and he en- rolled at Oxford, graduating with a degree in engineering. Kedem became a successful engi- neer, eventually moving to Israel with his wife and coordinating such projects as the construction of an airfield on Mt. Sinai. Kedem also has established himself as a creative film director. Yet Kedem remained silent on his past. “I saw it not in color, not in black- and-white, but in total darkness,” a story “not to be shared.” . Only a phone call from Hollywood director/producer Steven Spielberg could break Kedem’s silence. In cooperating with him on the film Schindler ’s List, offering not only his- torical but technical support, Kedem began to connect himselfwith his past. . He has now reconciled himself with the past, even on a spiritual level. Kedem has come to accept why such a series of events happened to him, con- .453‘. cluding that there “must be a God some- ‘. where, so that a child goes through that experience and survives to be a voice __ even against the darkness of the Holo- caust.” OCR::/Vol_094/WLURG39_RTP_19950505/WLURG39_RTP_19950505_003.2.txt 4: —K K The Ring-tum Phi, May 5, 1995 a% W&L tfe PAGE 3 From Dionne Warwick to Dave Matthews By CELESTE RASMUSSEN Phi Staff Member When drunk and trouncing through the mud at Zollman’s, you’ve probably never wondered why such a place would exist. A “party barn” like Zollman’s seems as logical and familiar to the W&L social experience as fraternity houses and Fancy Dress. However, considering the almost 250 years of W&L history, Zollman’s is a tradition that is rooted in the relatively recent past. According to the Spring 1993 edition of the W&L Alumni Magazine, the pavilion has been in existence since 1964, when original owner Ralph Zollman built a simple roof to cover his family during their reunions. Soon after, perhaps attracted to the rustic, out-of the way setting of Buffalo Creek, Zollman’s was discovered by W&L stu- dents. Needless to say, the pavilion was soon radically trans- formed. According to the article, between 1964 and 1970, increased student response led to the building of a large stage, the installation of booths and the placement of the large stone fireplace in the back. Indeed, partying at Zollman’s has become an experience. lt is an exercise in group behavior on the large-scale; for the parties are always big and the music always loud. However, many people are quick to point out the down- sides to such a place. Particularly in the winter months, Zollman’s can be, perhaps, a bit too rustic. Furthermore, cramped, out house-style bathrooms do little to help the experience. As freshman Helen Kim simply puts it, “The bathrooms stink, and it’s too cold to go there regularly.” When asked about Zollman’s, another freshman woman commented, “l’ve been there twice. The first time I was sober and had a horrible time. The second time I was drunk and had a great time.” As another person added, “Yeah, if you drink, you don’t mind the odor.” The bathroom situation at Zollman’s hasn’t always been so bad, though. According to the Alumni magazine, there were nice bathrooms with hot and cold running water at one point, but they were rendered unserviceable by repeated use. Other students have a more favorible opinion. In the words of Junior Richard Weaver, "Zollman’s? No shoes, no shirt, no problem!" No matter what a person thinks about Zollman’s, how- ever, there does seem to be a basic consensus on the place: the more drunk you are, the more fun you have. So what is the mystique behind Zollman’s? Besides the picturesque setting there are many things the pavilion has to offer. . For one thing it is practically immune from the noise ordinances of Lexington’s’s finest. Furthermore, it is rela- tively inexpensive and clean—up is included in the price. So, despite the inconveniences, such as bathrooms and finding sober drivers to brave the twisty Virginia roads leading there, Zollman’s has proved itself worthy to the college age set. Waynlee Zollman, the current owner, is continuing the tradition started by his father. Present at every party because of his liability insurance, he comments in the W&L Alumni Magazine article that he enjoys getting to know the students. Both he and his father have seen many things over the past 3 decades. However, for a place that has hosted such diverse musi- cal groups that span the spectrum form Dionne Warwick to Dave Matthews and has crowded in almost 30 years of students and alumni, one thing will always remain the same: W&L students have a grand social tradition and Zollman’s is an integral part of it.

MILLER Phi Features Editor Thursday night is a big television night at W&L. l have known students to schedule “Mad About You,” “Seinfield,” and “ER” into their lives more regularly ‘ than English papers and math sets. Going all the way back to “Cheers,” Thursday nights have always been there to lighten up life a little bit. The hit sitcom “Mad About You” has a wide following of romantic fools who enjoy laughing at the business of love and marriage. Paul Reiser, television veteran of such shows as “My Two Dads” plays Paul, the other half of Jamie, in “Mad About You.” Paul Reiser is one of the new generation of comedians who has made the successful transition from stand up to sitcom. Following the lead of others like Jerry Seinfield, Reiser also recently published Couplehood, a book on his humorous insights to dating and marriage. Unlike many sitcom comedians, Reiser also made it to the big screen, most recently in Bye Bye Love. lt is the story of three divorced dads and their relationships with theri children, and ex-wives. Bye Bye Love also stars Randy Quaid Matthew Modin and Janeane Garofalo. Reiser also had a bit part in Beverly Hills Cop and in Aliens. For the faithful followers of his Thursday night sitcom, “Mad About You” many of Reiser’s comments and critique in Couplehood will sound familiar. Reiser’s inspiration forthe show, as well as this book are based on his relationship with his wife Paula. /5.

Mad about couplehood Paul Reiser jokes about chicken, movies, kissing and marriage Reiser traces problems and adventures that occur when two people leave‘ behind singlehood for the ‘Next big Thing. Forever. The Final Frontier.’ in otheri words, marriage. 1 Similar to Jerry Seinfield’sSeinlanguage,chapters seem to be more similar to’ a set ofjokes and experiences one would give on “An Evening at the lmprov.”. Reiser has his own style of humor, and it shows through clearly in his book; Couplehood, and in his character Paul on “Mad About You.” ' Be forewarned, this book does not begin on page one, but rather page 145. Reiser loves being smack in the middle ofthe book. As he sees it, “Pages behind me, pages ahead of me. lt’s too overwhelming to know there’s so much left and you’re only on page eight.” . 7- The book follows along the thoughts of its author, in a rather haphazard manner. For avid fans of. “Mad About .You,”,Reiser’s voice seems narrate the ' words as 'hi‘s"book‘u‘n‘folds.",' rgéure Maggiotto w'fiotranscribed' and translated‘. Reiser’s work‘ has done a magnificent job of keeping the essence of his humor in the book. 1' The chapters are arranged in a semblance of sticky encounters couples musi negotiate as their marriage progresses along. lt all begins with the problem of waking up together, and ends with the sentiment that marriage is actually a very complicated dance that couples tango to for the rest of their lives. , The book goes rather quickly (especially since you start on page 145) and provides many moments of laugh-out-loud pleasure. Do not read this book in at public place where you can’t turn to your neighbor and read passages for them‘ to enjoy as much as you did. The typical average W&L student isn’t married, and well Couplehood isn’t a rampant disease on this campus, but aspects of Couplehood are very applicable to “singlehood.”J Food is very important to everyone regardless of the commitment level of the; relationship. “Socializing invariably involves food, and often, a bona fide meal; Because you need the focal point. You can’t just walk back and forth between’; two trees and chat. How would you know when you’re finished? That’s why you; Scantily clad Scotsmen Rob Roy — ll 1/2 Rememberlastfall’sFranken— stein, with Robert De Niro and Kenneth Branagh? Expectations were very high forthat film — and when it didn’t quite live up, it seemed like a tremendous let down, even though it was an OK film. Rob Roy is in the same fix. Robert Roy McGregor (Liam Neeson) is the head ofa small but proud clan of Scotsmen, who have fallen under the control of an annoyingly effeminate En- glishman, the Marquis of Montrose (John Hurt). McGregor’s clan is having a tough time ofit in the early eigh- teenth—century, and survival from one winter to the next is never assured. So Rob Roy hatches a plan to borrow money from the Mar- quis, buy some cattle with it, and sell them for a tremendous profit, thereby ensuring the clan’s sur- vival for a few more years at least. But into the middle of this tidy little scheme jumps a bas- tard being housed by the Mar- quis, Archibald Cunningham (Tim Roth). Theresultingconflictbetween Cunningham and Rob Roy pulls in Mary McGregor (Jessica Lange), Rob’s wife, as well as the Duke of Argyll (Andrew Keir), an opponent of the Mar- quis. The basic subject matter, plot, and action of this film is one of its strongestpoints. The Scottish people have a rich and robust culture which lends itself very well to a heroic film. The misty, rolling Scottish High- lands and the ancient stone castles all look perfect in a sweeping historical fiction. Likewise, the supporting act- ing is fantastic throughout. Tim Roth (Reserv0irDogs, Pulp Fic- tion) is absolutely brilliant as the sneering, underhanded Cunningham, bringing a very believable thoroughness to his character’s evil. Similarly good are Eric Stoltz (Pulp Fiction, Mask) as Rob Roy’s right-hand man and John Hurt (Alien) as the unjust Marquis. So it is quite surprising that theworstactinginthefilmcome from its two leads, Liam Neeson and Jessica Lange. Neeson won great reviews for his role as Oskar Schindler in last year’s blockbusterSchindler ’sList, but he was perhaps a bad choice for this role. He has a sort of hu- manity about him that makes him more of an ordinary Joe than a folk legend. Jessica Lange was an even greater disappointment. The two-time Oscar winner (Tootsie and this past year for Blue Sky) forges through her lines like a ship through choppy waters. I know the eighteenth-century and two children must be hard on a woman, but she looks way too old for this role. And in many ways the script is the problem. Little known screen-writer Alan Sharp has‘ done a poor job, especially when he puts words in the mouths of the two leads. Liam Neeson finds himself speaking about honor in every other sentence, usually in tired phrases like “Honor is the gift men give to themselves.” Simi- larly, instead of the powerful, sensual Jessica Lange we nor- mally get, we are given someone more akin to a made-for-TV Sally Field role~herstrength andstub- bomness seem only a facade, as if she can merely out-bluff the English. ' ln another similarity to Branagh’s Frankenstein, there seems to be an obsession in Rob Roy with historical accuracy — no one’s hair ever looks clean, , people are up—front about using chamber-pots, and the love scenes are positively earthy. That might be fine for a PBS docu- mentary, but heroes, especially down-to-earth ones like Neeson, have no business being histori- cally accurate. Director Michael Caton- Jones, best known for Memphis Belle, does a mediocre job with this picture. The action scenes, which are reasonably-well cho- reographed, need a more re- strained hand in the camera-work. Some scenes get way out-of- hand, such as the river escape sequence, which drags on with no development, reducing the tension and excitement that should be there. Essentially, this film could have been much better. With a better script, some slightly better direction, and a glossier, more expensive production, this film could have really knocked our socks off. Instead, it just sort of pulls them off a few inches at a time. Don’t rush out to see Rob Roy, but it wouldn’t be a com- plete waste of money either. learn something about yourself.” Rating Scale llll-Go by this as soon as it comes out on video.

This marksthe second straight year and the third time since 1991 that the team has earned a trip to the nationals. The tournament runs from May 9 to 15 and is being hosted this season by nearby Sweet Briar College. ‘ The Generals (1 8-1)will make the short trip over the mountain Tuesday to take on Skidmore College (14-3) in the tournament’s opening round at 8:30 AM. Head coach Cinda Rankin is excited, yet cautious about the Generals first-round opponent. “Anyone at this level is tough,” said Rankin. “We don’t know much about them, but they’re young and up-and-com- 1n .” gW&L’s #1 singles player Marilyn Baker has previously faced Skidmore’s top player, Jamie Levine. Baker beat Levine, 6-3, 6-0, in the consolation match of the Rolex National Championships this past fall, earning a third- place finish. Rankin saidthatbuses willbe running from W&L to Sweet The tournament bracket for the tennis nationals Briar for all Generals’ matches. The schedule is being coordi- nated by the W&L Sports Infor- mation Office (463-8674), but the bus for Tuesday’s match is expected to leave at 7:30 AM. Last year, W&L entered the tournament as the number-two team, but was beaten in the quarterfinals by Williams and finished sixth. With a win Tuesday, the Gen- erals would move on to face the winner of the Amherst-Sewanee game on Wednesday. Amherst (19-1) is the east region’s number—one team, hav- ing beaten Williams College ear- lier in the year. Sewanee was the Generals’ final opponent before last month’s Old Dominion Athletic Conference tournament. W&L took the match, 5-4, to virtually secure a top-four seed for the NCAA tournament. The five-time defending ODAC champs look to be on a collision course for an opportu- nity to avenge their lone defeat and meet the nation’s top-seeded team, Kenyon College (15-2), in Thursday’s semifinal. W&L fell to Kenyon, 5-4, in March while playing without two of its top singles players. Freshman Natalia Garcia, the nation’s 11th-ranked singles player, was competing for her native Dominican Republic that week in the Federation Cup, fe- male tennis’ equivalence of the Davis Cup. The Generals’ ODAC cham- pion last year at third-singles, junior Shelley Sunderman, was injured before the Kenyon match, and she did not return until late in Women depart for tennis nationals the season. Among W&L’s other regular season opponents in the 14-team tournament are Emory (W&L won, 5-4) and previous national number-one squad, Williams (W&L won, 7-2). Emory was one of the two schools to beat Kenyon this year. The championship match will be scheduled for next Friday at 10:00 AM. A pair of Generals will then begin play in the singles and doubles competition. _ Senior Marilyn Baker is ranked number-five in the coun- try after posting a 26-3 record. This is her fourth trip to nation- als, where she advanced to the quarterfinals in 1993. The three- time ODAC Player of the Year finished third in that fall’s Rolex National Championships. Garcia will also compete in singles, in addition to teaming with Baker in doubles. The duo with a match record of 22-3 is ranked third'in the nation, and they placed third at the Rolex Championships. The seedings for both singles and doubles will be announced next week. Filc Photo Senior Marilyn Baker will lead the 18-1 women's tennis squad into next week's NCAA Division III championships at Sweet Briar College. ‘9
