Kevin Somerville gave the SAPB some class and he received a 25 dol- lar savings bond for doing it. Som- merville won SAPB s logo contest this week. Now whenever you see an event on campus sponsored by SAPB you will see Somerville ' s masterpiece. Warren Farrell knows the differ- ence between being a success and being a success-object, hie explained the difference in his lecture, More Than Just Success-Obiects given in the Student Center Ballroom. Farrell cited the plight of many businessmen who must transfer to different cities in order to move up in big business. This creates men who don ' t live to enjoy themselves. To change present attitudes Far- rell believes m men ' s consciousness raising sessions and feels they are needed by the majority of the male population. Farrell said that most men are emotionally constipated. According to him men fail to eguate sexuality with sensuality and thereby never really communicate with another human being on a personal level. Farrell concluded his lecture by describing the activities of a newly formed group. Men ' s Awareness Network. Some of M.A.N. ' s goals are to grant leaves of absences for fathers wishing to raise children and develop methods of male birth-con- trol devices. TOP: Kevin Somerville. designer of the SAPB logo.

After Thanksgiving the Theater Department and the Pioneer Players produced Lion in Winter on two consecutive weekends. The play cen- ters around hHenry Ms argunnents with his wife Eleanor over his mistress Alais, and which of his three sons will take over the crown when he dies. The characters in the story are Ingen- ious and treacherous, all trying to outsmart the others and have things go their way. Karen Corrado played a convincingly sincere Alals to associ- ate professor Tom Brennan ' s Henry. The two interacted well throughout, with the bearish Brennan towermg over Karen. The three princes were played by Marc Slavln, Carl Battag- lla, and Tom McCormlck. Each mas- tered their roles, playing a fool, a connlver. and a lion-hearted warrior respectively. The thrill of the eVening came from Henry ' s wife who was played by the noted actress Kim Hunter. Phillip was played by Jack Petty and Eleanor ' s ladies in waiting were played by Catherine Lotwis and Susan Merchant. Hunter and Brennan put in memo- rable performances, jabbing at each other at all times with quick sharp lines, each fighting for the upper hand in the relationship. Along with these fine performances, the 30 foot set of the interior of an old castle Impressed many people. The set was designed by Harold Thrasher and built by students who often worked Into ' early morning hours. The most Impressive aspect of the set was the way walls turned Into stairways and stairways into fire places In a matter of seconds between acts. The actors and actresses along with the stage crew and everyone else Involved put in a lot of hard work, and it showed. S5
