Coffee House
By Cathleen Mclnerney
"Erie is a real jukebox city," a
profound statement by Rande
McNamee who played at the
Coffee House, "...and. I'm glad
I'm here so I can play what I
want." So he opened his repetoire
with Ladies Love Outlaw, a little
risque, a little Rush. (Tom, that
is)'. - His seemingly - effortless
guitar strumming allowed us to
become engrossed in the story he
had to tell, and he had many; his
dissatisfaction with a "big city"
like State College was expressed
in his own composition, The Bug
Story can appropriate title). His
jaded attitude toward the fan
tasies, the non-realities of a
corporal world was conveyed in
Jackson Browne's These Days.
And Child's Song, a scenario
describing the touching scene of a
child leaving home for the first
time. dawned as a personal saga
in the final stanza. Please Come
to Boston (a Dave Loggins cut) is
certainly a repetitious "jukebox
tune", but also a plaintive and
forlorn call to his love.
Rande McNamee proclaims to
be a folk-country-blues guitarist,
but the continuing theme of his
selection of songs tends towards
blues in content. McNamee has
something to say about our
society in general lucky for us
his medium is music. Perhaps
Stop It I Love It illustrates the
lamentation. "I don't really know
what I want," he says, but to be
sure, this forlorn cry does not
imply ignorance of some of the
more unpleasant realities of life.
He reminds us of them by his
songs, and somehow makes even
death ( Revelation) appear less
unpleasant.
Following McNamee, we had
the delightful expereince of the
music by Allen Smith and Pam
Verity, a duo whose expert
harmonizing sounded better than
some accomplished by mixing at
a recording studio. During an old
Box Tops number, we are told to
imagine Pam as a 1950's bouf
fanted "Rayettes" chorus girl,
but some of the notes she hit could
only remind me of the Beverly
Sills debut at the Met, or Joplin in
a sweet mood. Her fiddle blended
nicely with Smith's guitar, with
his banjo and harmonica, and
their voices merging created a
whole other instrument.
They played everything from
Dylan's Just Like A Rollin' Stone
to a blue grass cut, Cripple Creek
from John Denver's country to

Bessie Smith's blues. Country
Comfort, an ancient Elton John
number before his onslaught into
glifter rock, though definitely
recognizable, was fused into their
own unique style, an enjoyable
one at that. And their voices
during a ragtime trinity seemed
to play a cat and mouse game, the
tone of the instrutments in
tertwining as one. If there had to
be a peak among so many highs,

Last week's baseball action
came up with a surprise or two,
but showed the team in good
standing overall. The double
header with Duquesne on
Thursday at Duqusne placed the
team under some stress they'd
never faced before. The umpire
behind the plate was doing a poor
job with the calls. In the words of
Coach Stoner, "When a batter, or
pitcher• enters a game, he
visualizes the strike zone and
adjusts himself accordingly.
When the calls vary too much, the
player is thrown way off, and
almost doesn't know what to do."
The first game went to
Duquesne when the winning run
was walked in making the final
score 6-5.
After a complaint was
Down by the river
The SUB-sponsored raft trip on
May 1 is drawing a lot of student
interest at Behrend.
This raft trip is down the
Youghiagheny River, which is
just south of Uniontown. The
group will leave early in the
morning (Thursday, May 1) and
will arrive at the starting point at
about 11 a.m. to start the trip.
The group will stop halfway
through the trip for a picnic-style
lunch. The trip will cost ap
proximately $lB tran
sportation, trip, and lunch in
cluded. If you are interested in

wright lll's Down Drinking at the
Bar when their voices and in
strumentals successively
overpowered each other in a
pleasant competition.
Hopefully,
_Smith and Verity
will be able to return during the
Spring Arts Festival. If so, it will
definitely be to your advantage to
allow yourself the pleasure of
their entertaining performance.

registered, and a conference with
the umpire, the second game
proceeded more normally, and
Behrend won by a 11-5 score.
Later when the team had
returned home, the Duquesne
Coach called and informed that
the unpire in question was not a
member of the officials
organization, had never taken the
exam, and therefore was not
qualified to umpire a college
game: So, Behrend is credited
with winning the game by forfeit.
Aside from the umpire
situation, the team did a good job,
especially at the plate. Jim Davis
hit a three run homer in the ninth
inning of the first game. In the
second the batters pushed the
score up to a comfortable 7-0 lead
in the top of the third inning. After
allowing five runs, pitcher Myles
johns held them to no more runs
for the rest of the game to be the
this trip, sign up at the RUB desk
immediately. You must pay for
the trip when signing up.
Many people left Las Vegas
night also sponsored by the
SUB last Saturday, very happy
after winning tremendous sums of
play money and fantastic prizes.
The evening began with games
such as craps, chuck-a-luck,
black jack, and horse racing.
The money that was won
throughout the evening was later
used in an auction for prizes.
Some of the auctioned prizes
were: posters, tennis racket,
radios, popcorn popper, clothing,
and assorted smaller items. It
was reported that one player had
accumulated over $400,000.
Interviews for next year's
student union board will take
place last Tuesday and today.
Students are reminded that if
they are not able to attend, please
notify Jay DeFrank in advance.

to ten records - no charge
winner and 2-0 for the season so
far. The game was mostly
dominated by the Cubs who had
10 earned runs to the Duke's 4.
On Saturday, the Behrend nine
traveled to Geneva to play two
games, and won both of them, 13-
11 in the first game and 8-7 in the
second. Coach Stoner said, "Our
pitching gave us some trouble in
these games: we get a good lead
early in the game, and then lose it
quickly, forcing us to play under
pressure. We were out-hit for the
first time this season, and had
thirteen walks."
However, the overall picture is
very good for Behrend baseball,
and all other sports too. Coach
Stoner said, "For the first time
since we've been a four-year
school, we have the potential of
having a 500 record in all sports.
I've talked to the other coaches
and they also feel that we have
also some of the best athletes
playing this year that we've ever
had."
The baseball team's record is 7-
1 now; last year they won only
seven games total. Coach Stoner
feels that chances are excellent of
having the first successful season
since becoming a four-year
college.
The team will meet Alliance at
home this afternoon for a two
game contest. Saturday they will
travel to Grove City to play what
Coach Stoner feels is one of the
toughest teams that they will
meet.
Advising and pre
registration for Summer
term and Fall term (both
Behrend and University
Park) will be conducted May
1-14.
