New policies
BY KENAN BOLAND
YJ News Editor
There are several changes in
the Howard Payne University
dorm regulations.
These new rules apply to all
of the dorms on-campus apart-
ments and duplexes.
Athena Bean dean of stu-
dents said that the new policies
are meant to keep the dorms in
better physical shape.
First there arc no cinder
blocks allowed.
Some students were using
the cinder blocks to elevate their
beds. This was causing the floor
to get scuffed.
Also contact paper will not
be allowed. Bean said that it took
almost all summer to scrape off all
the contact paper that was in the
dorms.
Third no wall to wall or
remnant carpets will be allowed.
However area rugs are permissi-
ble. Additionally no glue can be
used on the floors or the walls.
Students in the past were gluing
their carpets down which was
ruining the floors.
Finally no candles are
allowed.
Bean said that there were no
major changes to the student hand-
book. This is Bean's first year as
the dean of students. She had been
working in public high schools as
consists of 45 songs interspersed
with dialogue that tells the life
story of Irving Berlin including
his marriage and family his vari-
ous collaborators and his success-
es and failures.
This is the story of a Russian
immigrant who started as a singing
waiter at a saloon on the Bowery
then found his way from Tin Pan
Alley to Broadway from
Hollywood to military tours of
duty throughout Europe and the
Pacific. The story of Irving Berlin
is the story of the American 20th
century.
The story is told by five men
and five women who play differ-
ent characters throughout the
revue. Other songs that are memo-
rable include "Easter Parade"
"Alexander's Ragtime Band"
"Puttin" On the Ritz" "Steppin'
Out With My Baby" "Heat Wave"

Art students complete
summer study in Hawaii
BY CALVIN BROWN
YJ Staff Writer
During the last May term
Howard Payne University offered a
travel study course that allowed
five HPU students and one faculty
member the opportunity to attend
an art course on the Hawaiian
Island of Oahu.
The course consisted of two
weeks in Hawaii with a third week
back at HPU. The course was
designed and instructed by profes-
sor David Helton. Helton had been
planning the course for over two
years and had traveled to Oahu at
his own expense to research how
best to utilize the unique culture
and natural environment of the
island in an art course.
Students were able to visit
unique places including Pearl
Harbor the Arizona Memorial
Bishop Museum Honolulu
Academy of Art the Dole Fruit
Plantation Manoa Falls the Aloha
Tower the Military Museum the
Contemporary Museum of Art and
the University of Hawaii.
Professor Helton said the
students were able to see an art
stle very different from the art
that they are able to sec in this part
of the world some of which has
been unchanged for thousands of
years.
The students spent a great
deal of their time climbing the
mountains in Manoa Falls. The
climbing expeditions allowed them
to get subject references for their
artwork that they couldn't have
gotten otherwise.
Freshman art major Stormy
Maugham said "the class did a lot
for us as students and as artists.
The art that we saw in Hawaii gave
new ideas for our artwork. It would
be impossible for an art student to
come back from the class without
being artistically inspired."
The students that attended
the course were Mangham Grant
Reid Calvin Brown Daniel Hunt
and Nclli Helton
Helton said that he hopes this
summer is only the first of many
travel courses for the art depart-
ment. He wants to one day take an
HPU art class to do a travel study
course in Euiope.
