Although few of the faculty are di- rectly involved in teaching art, many contributed to the Faculty Art Show, held September 23 through October 15 in the Gallery Lounge. It gave them a chance to show how well they practice what they preach. Most came through flying colors. KNO pun intended.D however, didn't fare so well. l ey Qffas might be expected, the works heavy, academic overtones and one could readily sense the Instructor's contribution, apart from the Artist's. The display included oils, water- colors, photographs, collages, sculp- tures, industrial art exhibits and even a seaworthy catamaran. The latter, going for 35300, represented by far the best buy of the show. The other prices at times got out of purse. For instance, a collage consisting of a piece of driftwood with a pile of salt-shakers balanced in the middle and two ornamented chopsticks at the helm was priced at a robust 315150. A collage, looking like the leftovers from a day at nursery school glued on a note book and mounted, went for 550. An oil resembling an unfinished jigsaw puzzle was priced at 5250. There seemed to be atacit agreement that nothing, no matter trivial , would Sen for less than 550. Several students were asked what about the exhibit, and if ,il particular had impressed snltinn T Charles Rickard, jr. , a junior in history, liked a photo nfigocks, Moss Beach, Cal. , by Don Worth. lt produces a true image. It makes you feel you're there. But he wouldn't pay 550 for any of them. They're priced a little too high. Freshman Bob Mull, a premed. student, merely shook his head when asked about prices. He didn't think much of the show as a whole, but I did like the water-colors, the more abstract ones. Libby Nakagawa, a senior major- ing in sociology was impressed by the show in general. Ididn't look at the prices. E

Budo, or the way of the warriors , contains within its concept the martial arts: judo, Karate, Iko-do Gudo with advanced techniquesj, Ken-do ffencingb, and Kyu-do Qarcheryl. At STATE only the two most popular forms, judo and Karate, are taught by the Budo Club, under the sponsor, jack Yuen, assistant professor of business. The Goju-school of Karate, first es- tablished in japan by Gogen Yamaguchi, s taught to the one-hundred twenty nembers by his son, Gosen Yamaguichi, president of the club. To master the many different posi- tions and forms demanded by Karate, one needs the agility of a contortionist. To get into the unusual positions called for, the members perform daily exer- cises requiring stamina and physical and mental vigor. During the fall semester, the first Karate ranking tournament was held at STATE, one of the few colleges in the country where Karate may be learned. 20 O X A' T 4?
