Feeling Cravitys Pull. Although the vocals weren't always clear, the audience showed its familiarity with the band by singing along to the songs it knew, despite the muddled sound. A simple stage and eerie lighting in green, red and yellow emphasized R.E.M.'s work ethic songs. While the band did The Finest Worksong, the first cut from Document. a video screen behind Barry tlashed visions of railroads and heavy industry. R.EM. earned a following in Athens, Ga., home of the University at Georgia, as a college band. With the last album, the band gained national recognition. Lites Rich Pageant went gold 600,000 copiest in tour months. Document needed only one Week to reach the same mark. Nashville's 10,000 Maniacs opened tor R.EM. tu a sparse and relatively calm audience. Despite the group's originality, they lacked the energy necessary to capture the crowd and many did not tind their seats until 10,000 Maniacs had tinished their set. -by Preston Fay Carol Owen Allen plays snob well Zack Allen, with his pertect portrayal at the rich, arrogant elitist Sheridan Whiteside, captivated audi- ences as the University Company opened its season Bantu ITim Dialt pltiiu Inr the .itti-ttiuns uI Miss I'rern 4Kri$ten Tnmplxinst In the t Llrrnu' Hrmvn prmlmlmn ut'l'ht- Mdn H'hu t amm- tu Dinner UII-Ihe-u'all Harriet Stanley rMarnice Hutwllt befriends the relutmnt Sheridan tlarlt Allcnt .

Africa Week, a celebration of the African people, was designed to inform students about issues con- fronted by African students who come to America to study.

The week started with a panel discussion at the University Center. A group of African students including Amadou Janneh, YaYa Barrow, NaNa Agyenim-Boateng, Denise Hoffman, and Amel Bouch- amaoui led a discussion on subjects ranging, from marriage of a couple in the Mandingo tribe to the African's image to the world press' influence in Africa.
