Classes End, Hell's
by Alan Kirik
Staff Writer
If raw sex, twin-fisted action
and high voltage thrills are your
cup of TNT, you won't want to
miss Hell's End on Friday, May
17. It explodes on the scene with
bristling tension, knocking the lid
off sanity.
Actually, Hell's End is about as
exciting as a six-pack of Car
nation Instant Breakfast, but I
Forensics Active
Looking Forward
The Forensic Union, headed by
Dr. Ingeborg Chaly, consists of
any Behrend student interested
in competing against various
other colleges in oral com
petition. The categories of
competition may vary from
_oral
interpretations of prose and
poetry to rhetorical criticism.
Other categories consist of
original oratory such as per
suasive and informative
speeches, impromptu and ex
temporaneous speaking and after
dinner speaking.
This year's team competed in
three different tournaments. The
ievements
The Banquet which ended with
a closing benediction by Father
Guy Patrick could be summed up
with a comment made by Dean
Lane which was, "Apathy,
tonight gives the lie to that
word."
Behrend's Fourth Annual Spring Arts Festival was open to
the public last week. Even the youngest members of the
Erie community seemed to enjoy it.
thought I could pull a few of those
lines for good review. Absurd as
it may seem, Hell's End is the
rejoicing in the knowledge that
final exams are all that remain
on this year's calendar.
The day-long schedule of ac
tivities include: a Tug O'War, a
car bash, and a Frisbee Contest.
There will be an Ice Cream Thing
in the RUB, starting at 1:00 and
the Grill will open at 10:00 outside
the RUB with outside dining a
possibility.
The car bash begins at 10:00 in
the upper RUB parking lot.
Voluntary violence will only be a
dime or three for a quarter. The
Tug O'War and Frisbee Contest
will begin at 12:00 behind the
soccer field. Contact Tom

This Year
to Fall
first, held at California State
University, had twelve schools
competing; Behrend matched
wits with such schools as Bowling
Green State University,
Duquesne and the University of
Maryland. Behrend was

Debbie Vogt, Regina Gapinski
and Craig Caldwell at this
tournament.

the After Dinner Speaking with
Beth finally taking a fourth place
and Lynne a second.
Four students then traveled to
University Park to compete in
the John Henry Frizzell All-
End
Kavinski to enter yourself or your
team ofjust be there.
Also, the air might just be filled
with background music and
ballons will be sold to create an
atmosphere quite bizarre, con
sidering the next few days.
Plugs : The car will be donated
by City Auto Sales and Sharkey's
Auto will tow it away. And let's
not forget those people too
modest to speak up. Thanks a lot.
To start the Spring Arts weekend last week a Jammy was
sponsored by the Freshman Class. Behrend students and
local talent had a good chance to entertain the Behrend
community.

Players to
Extend Show
by Jeff Matson
Tomorrow night the Behrend
Players will begin their un
precedented third week of per
formances. Demand was so great
for tickets during the early
performances of the show that
the cast and crews decided that
an additional two performances
would be presented. At this time,
there are tickets remaining for
both shows at the RUB desk.
The Players would like to thank
the students, faculty and ad
ministration for their constant
support during this year and hope
that next year will be one of
continued growth for the Players
as they go on to expand the
theatre program here at
Behrend.
Students are reminded that if
they are interested in working
with the Players next year that
they should sign up for Theatre
189, a one-credit course in theatre
production. Although the shows
for the coming season have yet to
be chosen, Mr. Selco plans to
again present a wide range of
theatre styles that will be able to
utilize the unique facility of the
Studio.
The 73-74 season has shown the
possibilities and potential for a
theatre program at Behrend. The
success of these two productions
can be attributed to many
sources, the hard work of the
many crews, officers and Mr.
Selco, director of the Players;
also the generous support of local
businesses in securing props and
other services was of great help
in producing the quality of per
formances, and of course, the
reason all of it is going, the
audiences. The Behrend
audiences have made the work
much more a labor of love and
with their continued support the
sky's the limit for the Players'
growth.
