Th Oldest rt Show In Da ton Each September, the grounds of the University of Dayton Roesch Library becomes the site of very important cultural tradition - the Library Lawn Art Show. The show, which is sponsored by University Activities, and which is well-reputed for its displays of fine craftsmanship, is a tradition not only for the University but also for the Dayton community. In fact, it has the distinction of being the oldest art show in the Dayton area. On September 16, 1984, the Library Lawn Art Show once again lived up to, if not surpassed, its tradition of excellence. The strong point of this year's show was undoubtedly the variety of artistry displayed. Approximately 50 artists and craftsmen presented their wares, which included pottery, stoneware, photography, watercolors, jewelry, wood working, stained glass, paper making, and pen-and-ink drawings, just to name a few. In addition, visitors were treated to the sounds of guitar music, both classical and folk, a poetry reading, and the performance of the singing group Celebration. When those midday hunger pangs set in, a wide variety of culinary delights were available, ranging from Baskin- Robbin's ice cream to sandwiches and snacks provided by Food Service. Gourmet picnic baskets, which provided the perfect repast for such a beautiful September day, were also available. These picnic baskets were sold by the University Activities Organization and came complete with cheeses, apples, grapes, petit fours, summer sausage, croissants, and a fifth of sparkling burgundy grape- drink - in just the right quantity for a romantic picnic for two! Mary Rose Zink, coordinator of University Activities Organization, said, I consider this a successful event. We have passed out over 1,000 programs to visitors and we have received positive feedback from artists and visitors alike. Laura Limongelli Student Lifef15

Monopoly n Campus? When you pass Go, collect 5200. ls this a joke? No one wins money so easily. When you play the game of Monopoly though, anything is possible. And when you join the fun at Campus Carnival, the possibilities are endless. The 1984 Campus Carnival was a million-dollar success. After some creative brainstorming, members of the University Activities organization, Mary Rose Zink and Mary Ellen Haefner, planned an interesting twist to the usual Carnival theme: a Monopoly board game. Each booth rented by interested University organizations was a playing spot on the original Monopoly game board. No ideas were too wild for the different places on the board. For instance, the Art fraternity chose New York Avenue to sell bagels, toast-on-a-stick, and instant photos with Miss Liberty as the accompanying prop. Other ideas included, Founders 2nd and 4th floors with a dunking tank calling their square Waterworks, Tai Chi Kung Fu Club selling eggrolls on Oriental Avenue, and Lambda, Lambda Lambda Sororit with a ANP b 1 Y kissing booth on Park Place. The booths sold anything from soda and beer to hotdogs and pizza. Games were varied and interesting such as card games, computer games, and skill games, like dart throws and putt-putt. In addition to the multitude of games and food, there was entertainment provided by a very up and coming group called the Castaways. They gave a fresh and innovative sound and played a new music dance style that kept the crowd alive. They played a range from various new and old bands such as Elvis Costello, R.G.M., and David Bowie. They added an additional pizazz to the delightful evening. Mary Ellen Haefner 14 16fStudent Life
