Page Two By Jim Martin Executive Editor In the misty dark of night, unarmed intruders break onto a small, but spacious, lonely looking grounds off a much less traveled state highway. Eureka, in this utopia. Hardly. These grounds appear lived upon, but where's the life? They jumped some nets, shot a few hoops in the old barn, ah !but what takes place behind the barn is the real score. Next, they steal a few books, burning most. Progressing, their circle leaves the valley, onward toward the mountains. What is found are more buildings with hoards and hoards of doors and corridors, leading to well-worn knobs, seats, springs, sacks, and trash cans. And the aroma! Thank the constructors for windows. What beasts ruled this domain? Again, it appears lived in with nu leftovers left, just cases upon cases of hangovers, soaring ever so high.

In and out of more rooms and corridors. At the head of these rooms, a podium or single, larger (than the others) desk is standing. Here, evidence reveals (one must watch where one steps) that ever so easily did the extraneous views flow. The physics of such a building is wonderous. Someone, if not all, suffered here. Another similar structure lies parallel to the aforementioned, but on a lower plane. Within its walls, the speeches made, psych one out. Beaten pathways are the en trances and exits here too as well as the spray (flow) of words still hanging on the walls. A naturally-aired gazebo continues the visitors' circle. It seems the gazebo was seldom used and only viewed in passing. To the opposite, a converted storage shack named the Studio, was well utilized. The intruders sensed many a protege per formed playacting here. Then Executive Editor's Note: The festival was decent, last year, I recall, but 1975's I totally en joyed.

This structure is all foreign to them, as difficult to relate to as mathematics. The clings and clangs punching and echoing deafeningly. But before completing the circle, a prominent multi-doored, sided, windowed building is in vestigated. Files and more files containing written records, briefs and correspondence is found. What atrocities, slanders, misconstrued conceptions and even some actual, authentic facts are all recorded in black and white. And if the outside is , multi etc., the inside is more so. Slender stairways and openings all en compassing and returning the intruder to where they began. They leave, thinking among other thoughts, was everybody's first name Dean? The intruders exit the built-up acreage having cast little or no destruction, leaving yet (for tunately or unfortunately??) another year for which students can return. **** ** *************** * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * # Star C9rnef By Rosa Myers Note: This is the sixteenth in a series of weekly articles. Types of Astrology Mundane Astrology concerns itself with world affairs. It predicts wars, revolutions, famines. It also is accurate in predicting the fortunes of national leaders in politics, the arts,and finance, since their lives are tied in with national and international events. This was the type of astrology practiced in Babylon. Natal Astrology is very popular today and concerns the in dividual. A complete personal horoscope utilizing the time, day and year and month of birth is drawn up and the influences of each planet are studied and analyzed. Most people can't supply the astrologer with the necessary information and some have no idea how to do the calculations involved for themselves. At the present time, ads are being run in papers telling people how they can receive an computerized inexpensive horoscope. But this type of horoscope is dependent upon the amount of data the computer has collected. Fees for having a horoscope drawn up by a professional astrologer can run as low as $l5 and as high as several hundred dollars. - Horary Astrology is one of the most interesting. It deals with ideas.

It is similar to consulting a pack of Tarot Cards. Electional Astrology is similar to Horary Astrology but instead of asking what will happen one asks what might happen. Pythagorean Astrology dates back to Pythagoras, the Greek philosopher who lived about 550 8.C.. He was interested in the significance of numbers and applied this to Astronomical calculations. ' Lunar Astrology can be regarded as a separate science of its own.lt pays close attention to the position of the moon as it applies to each sign of the Zodiac and its effect on earthly con ditions. Agricultural Astrology con centrates upon planting and harvesting. Medical Astrology involves Astrological Anatomy: placing certain parts of the human body under different Signs of the Zodiac. It is believed by some that if the moon is in the sign of an individual about to undergo surgery and that sign rules the part of the body to be operated upon, he should delay surgery for a day or two until the moon has passed into another sign. (Ex. A Taurus should never never have surgery on his throat if the moon is in Taurus on the day of - surgery. He should wait). Hair should only be cut when the moon is waxing and preferably when it is in a fruitful sign like Pisces or Can cer. Then the growth of hair will May 15, 1975 be quicker and the new growth will be stronger. Dieting should be undertaken only when the moon is in Taurus or Virgo as abstinence of any type will not be so annoying to the individual at this time. Any new projects should be initiated when the moon is waxing. When it is waning, this is the time to store up energy and rest. I know someone who went so far as to have her dentures fitted according to the moon's cycle. She had herself fitted when the moon was waxing and has never had to use any type of denture adhesive. I have a biased theory of my own: I think women, as physical beings, are much closer to the earth and nature because of their menstrual cycles. Even though menstruation has ceased to be the "evil" and "mystery" (?) of all time, I find myself still tying it in with the moon and the tide. Witches believe that in Woman one finds the mystery of the Universe. And this is never more so than when she is pregnant. And just for the record, some astrologers believe that the temperament of the parents as well as the emotional mood during conception will mark the child, and may influence his future actions. Ideally a peaceful, relaxed, and loving union will yield harmonious, peace-loving children, while a violent union will yield restless, willful, belligerent children.
