On Campus — Part(y) Time If life is cheap, then Kenan Dorm made some cents out of that meaning. Not once, but twice they put it to good use. In the Multi- purpose room on September 30, 1981, pan- demonium was gearing up for an exciting evening with a room full of wolf-calling fe- males. What was all the excitement about? Kenan was holding a Slave Auction selling male property to some aggressive and competitive women for the following visitation night. Such property as Jimmy Masters, Willie Carter, Thomas Sweetwater Rawley and Kemp Pendergrass were sold. Buster Sanderford presided as auctioneer, padding both the bid and the jokes. The highlight of the night was when Thom- as Rawley taunted the girls by offering to remove his shirt in order to raise his bid. He only managed, however, to raise the bid five dollars and the roof of the Multi-Purpose room by several feet. If one bought a slave, what could be done with a slave? The rules were announced and posted before the auction began. Slaves and buyers were not allowed to violate the college handbook. Leaving the campus with the slave was optional. Slaves could not incur the debt of the buyer and the buyer could not ask them to violate their morals, principals or ethics. Since the girls sold the guys, it was only fair to return the favor. The following week of November 5th the guys got their just re- venge. Not only were the guys as aggressive and competitive as the girls, but some brought their checkbooks padded with new deposits made earlier that day. The response Screaming at the top of her lungs, Brenda Hughes gets her bid for her choice of a slave. Trisha Hoag and Cathy Boehm wait for a chance. and pandemonium matched, if not exceeded the previous auction. The selection varied like candy on a rack. Martha Vinson, Kim Bolton, Sonia Galloway, and Susan Jackson were a sample of things sweet to come. The bidding got exciting when Kim Bolton was on the block. The bidding swayed back and forth as Kevin Elliot and Charles Layno topped each other until Charles conceded and Kevin took Kim for an astonishing sixty dollars. This goes to prove that infatuation does carry a price. If you ever find yourself low in cash or you don ' t even have a dime to drop in the bucket and you need a quick buck, hold an auction and sell your friends. It can be a very valu- able experience! Slavery might have been outlawed after the Civil Wai but not for Steve Brost as he awaits his turn on th auction block- 18
