THE CAPITOLIST
Vol. VII, No. 3
This Week
This week's meeting of the
Student Government
Association was an
extraordinary meeting indeed.
President Terry Wimmer called
the Senate meeting to order,
portraying a sense of urgency.
Patrice Nelson, that dedicated
Secretary of the SGA, hurriedly
passed out copies of the minutes
of the previous meeting. It was
so strange, that one wondered
what was going to happen.
But nothing did happen. The
SGA went through its weekly
ritual of governing the student
body of Capitol Campus.
Wimmer, in a break from
parliamentary procedure, began
the business portion of the
meeting with his personal
announcements. Marlin Kohler,
junior Senator representing the
Math-Science Program, was
formally dismissed from the
Senate. Kohler had dropped
below the grade-point average of
2.33 during the Winter Term. He
was not dismissed prior to this
week because he had grades on
appeal, Wimmer explained.
Wimmer announced that Dr.
Hartzler and Dr. Conover
were named to fill Capitol's
vacancies on the University
Faculty Senate. Dr. J.H. Moore,
Head of the Engineering
Devision, has submitted his
resignation. He is reportedly
going to Virginia Polytechnical
Institute to assume a post similar
to the one he held here at
Capitol.
Wimmer plans to nominate
three students to serve on the
University Council at Main
Campus. The students cannot be
a member of the SGA and serve
on the Council. They can, for
example, be members of the
Dean's Advisory Committee and
still be eligible.
Mrs. James Jordan has agreed
on the basis for a teaching award
to be established in memoriam
of her husband, Dr. Jordan, who
was Chairman of the Faculty
Council. The award will be
presented as the senior class gift.

The Teaching Award
Committee will meet today at
11:30 in the SGA office to
narrow the field of faculty down

then choose among the

during the General Election on
May 18. Petitions of candidates
for SGA officers must be
submitted to the SGA office,

The Finance Committee,
chaired by Treasurer Dan.
Ekberg, reported that Mike
Bauer and Don Lewis of the
Social Committee would be
reimbursed for travel expenses
incurred during the past year.
There was continual hassling
over the budget of the XGI
fraternity. It was finally
allocated $350, most of which
will be used to send delegates to
a convention in Duluth,
Minnesota next week.
The Human Awareness
Committee was allocated $250
for Fertility Day activities. Sen.
Neil Madonick moved that the
location of the weekly SGA
meetings be moved from the
Main Building to the Student
Center, basing his motion on
particapatory and ecological
reasons. I The motion was
defeated due to lack of majority.
Organizational budgets for the
1972-73 academic year are
requested to be submitted to the
SGA in no more than two
weeks. On Wednesday, May 3,
there will be a meeting in E-202
to establish an ad-hoc committee
of student advisors.
Faculty currently living in
Meade Heights have been
requested to find other housing
facilities, it was reported. This
was done to make room for the
huge influx of new students
expected to invade campus
beginning in September with the
Fall Term. At last report, four
professors live in the Heights.
On that note, the Student
Government Association
abruptly adjourned.

CAPITOL CAMPUS - MIDDLETOWN, PA
Donald Hilliard and The Sweethearts of Soul
Talent Show
by R. W. Bonaker
Capitol's Annual Talent
Show, which was held last
Wednesday and Thursday, was
truly an entertainment
achievement. Program
coordinater, Carolyn Sims, did a
remarkable job in lining up such
wonderful talent.
Yet the Talent Show almost
didn't happen. It was originally
scheduled for dates near the end
of the Winter Term, but was
postponed because of lack of
interest. But Carolyn ran around
and came up with a wonderful
program.
Masters of Ceremonies, Evon
Golphin and Leroy Howe, kept
the show moving with their
humor and enlightening
introductions. The acts were
backed up by a competent
combo which included Mark
Chanin, Greg Garth, Dan Perini,
Carolyn Sims, Eric Smith and
Ken Norris. These people are not
part of a regular group, but the
audience could not tell that at
all. That factor is attributable to
the fine abilities of the group.
Eva Warren gave an adequate
rendition of "Yesterday' to
open the program. Chris and
Linda sang two folk songs,
which were well received by the
audiences which packed the
Auditorium for two nights. On
Wednesday, Mark Channin,
aided by interpretative dancers,
played his original compositions
on the piano, and sang a stirring
"Haverton Blues".

Donald Hilliard and the
Sweethearts of Soul sang
"Close to You". Dan Perini
played his original "Red Rain"
on the guitar portraying the
different phases of rainfall. It
was a classic. Jocelyn Combs,
Jarian Reed, Barbara Rubin,
Carolyn Sims and Eva Warren
comprised a group of
wonderfully exotic African
Dancers, utilizing the full effects
of the stage setting.
The Band played a few
selections, the members
displaying their versatility on the
instruments. Lois Brockington
belted out two soulful
selections, electrifying the
audience. Greg Garth, backed by
members of the Sweethearts of
Soul, sang an enjoyable "Never
Can Say Good-bye".
Tom Ogden presented a
mind-reading act during
Thursday's performance. The
chorale, Truth and Soul,
highlighted the show with
renditions of "People Make the
World Go Round" and
"Together, Let's Find Love".
The show was capped by the
stirring finale, "Try a Little
Love" involving all performers.
It was truly a wonderful
show, Thanks to all who
participated or were in any way
involved with the program. The
show's success can be attributed
to Carolyn Sims. Thank-you
Carol.
