Penny Losse: "Th~re doe-.n't seem to be an awarenes~

In .1n attempt to deal wtth d1c:se problems the Nuclear

961 B.C.[,). The tdca de ... eloped that Oavtd and ht~ descendant\
were to rt!tgn over lr.wcl for all time,
This IS cv1dent "' many passages. Samuel 22:50-51 (Psalm
18:50·51) IS a Rood example. "for th1s I ~ing Your pr~me, 0 Lord
among the natiOns/And hymn Your namP: 'He who grants

Wisdom and justice
When David's empire collapsed Jher the death of Solomon
(<.:.922) !ltagl! two developed. It was characterized by the hope,
or docmnl·, that the Hou\C of D<tvid would aga1n rule over
hrael. Many pJssages were reinterpreted In a prophetic sense.
Isaiah 11:1-2 ~late> :" And there shall come forth a rod our of the
)l('!m ot )t!~se, <tnd a branch shall grow out of his roots: And the
\prt it of the Lord shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and
undcr!ltanding. the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the
Lord."
The thud ~tage is a result of ls;uah's teachings . The perpetuity
ot the dynasty lost 1t~ importance . Quahties of the future king
became central. The foundation of his throne will be justice, he
will be endowed with justice. (c.f. ISilah 11:3-S.)
The ''Immanuel Prophecy" of Isaiah which is often dted in
support of J~us of Nal3reth echoes the ancient Canaanite·
Ugaritic mythology. Its meaning IS very dubious and so is
urelevant in this discuu1on.
Evolutionary process
It was not until the postbiblical era that the term ''Messiah"
became a des1gnation of a "savior." This thought was secon­
dary to the idea of salvation In the '1end of days" durins thia
period of anctent Judaism. The Book of Tobit, for example,
deals wtth the salvation of jerusalem and the conversion of
nations to the God of Israel. The concept of a personal Messiah
i~ lacktng. td. Book of Daniel.)
Messtantc movements have a long and plentiful history.
When ttmes were panicularly hostile towards the Jewiih
people "Mes~1ahs" tended to appear. Oureng the period le:.us
'" reputed to h~ve hved many datmed to be bringing
redempt1on to the people and eventually were crudfied lor

made wuhout adequate student input. As a rc!ouh of tht~
particular incident which involved the residence hall\
program, I b~ccsme involved in informing studentr. about
potenttal admtntstrative comiderattons, encouraged
~tudents 10 cxpreu their opin1ons about the program,
attended meetings where I t:Jtpre!os~d my own feeling\
.. bout the program. and finally paruc•pated tn the forum
held Saturday, Feb. 1<4, where any tntetested lotudcnt
could auend and gtv~ their rec::ommcndations concer­
ntng student life. (The recommendationr.that came from
rht~ meeting arc now the ones bt•ing consrdl'red b) the

the ide<~ will cost him money.
There will be no RA on Upper Split from Feb. 10·
through May 31. Bill Thorndike , the current R.A., will be
there, but only J\ another member ol the floor. The
mone} he would earn being an RA during that time (a
total of S200) will go to the members of the floor for floor
proJects. Then, on June 1. whether rt be a full moon or
not, Bill Thorndike will resume the traditional role. For

Two yeatl ago, a new rock n'roll band came out with an
tmpresstve debut album cnt1tled B4d Comp;my. The group
11seH ranked supetltar slatus (Paul Rodgers and S1mon kuke
from Free, Mlck R41phs from Mon the Hoople, Boz Burrell
from Kmg Crimson ), and promtsed a fresh approach and
direct1on for that old 'rock n'roll' mus1c. That was ach1eved in
Bad Company .1nd the follow-up, Srra1ghr Shooter wh1ch was
relee~sed last year. Neat her album was a landmark for rode n'roll
but the mustc was light, rcstratned. and very emot1onal.
Run Wlrh the Pack. Bad Company's new album, rocks faarly
well The baste formula, however, 1s begmnmg to wear a llnJe
thm. There •s on I)' 5o0 much a band can do wuhin the confmcs of
3 Instruments (though Rodger's vo1c:e Is almost an Instrument in
Itself). The chords. the lyrics, the musrcal changes, the pace all
seem to gave one a ~nse of'deJa liu'. One has heard most of th1s
on Bad Company's other lwo albums. older Free and Mon
marenal.
Strong cuts
The new album starts off on a strong nole with "Live for the
Mus1c", a song wtth an tnleresung gu.tar pauage wh1ch phases
nicely lrom one speaker to anorher (and particul.uly in
headphones ). Other strong OJts on the album include ''Simple
Man", "Run Wuh the Pack", "Honey Child" and "Silver,Biue&
Gold''. All of these rock like the best. but even the best gelS
boring when It's overdone.
As far as the mus•c1anshtp goes, Bed Company rNkes good
use of what 11 has. Nenher Klrke or Burrell (drvmmet and
bassist respecuvely) are techmcal grants, yet their pla~fng
reveals a cenam tnrensny and power that. though restramed, It
very compelling . Mick Ralphs, the guu:.tut, IS qurte good. H11
guitar sound has a sharp b1te to 1t wh1ch shows •tself acutely In
both tm rhythm and lead work. Paul Rodgers, the band't
~tnger. ·~certainly one of the best 1n rock n'ro11. His rough­
edged voice IS both powerful and expressiVe.
love and groupies
Etther Ro~&.ers or Ralphs wrote all but one of the album's 1Q
cu~~IS, analliougfi tf1e Iynes Cfeo~l wilh old o~nd famtliar sub,ieciS
such as love. groupies, music and befng on the~. they are
fatrly good.
The music Is fme, the lyrics are adequate, and the lf'OUP
effort ts strong. Still, I don•t partrcularly like Run With rlre Pad.
It's s.mply because I've heard h .tl before. B•d ~·
"fresh" approach to rod n•roll h.s become redundant ~
sterile. It is not a problem confined to B•d Cooiiii•Rf aloae,lliai
one that many other straight rock INnds also face. One of die
maJOr reasons rod music seems so static these days is.due to
many bands rem~ning within restrictive bounds for
~nd popular purposes.. Cre~ivlty. freshness, and ._
sacnficed.

Bonnie MacKlnnan
Many people thenlc that rock mu5ic IS depSorabte too loud
for human ears, too raucoU$ to be ailed musiC.
It tS also rhought that a htah number of decibel$ an lnflkt
brain damqe on the listener. This mutt be true. Why else
would people enjoy this mus1c which for the most ~rt~ sounds
lake arrots going down the s•rbaee disposalr Not only IS it
harmful mentally but It's phys~alfy d;afN8ins as well.
The problem "that rock 'n' roll es mostly noase, and noise an
cause hostility, fatigue, naromsm. IM"'C. 1nd1gest10n,
h1ghblood preuure. hypen~on, and scores of othef
problems.
Rock 1s not a harmless pastime but a dangerous drus on
which today's youth is hooked. It Is more dangerous tNn
herotn because It Is generally thought to be harmless and
therefore It does tts darNge tn an unc:NIIensed wav.

However, the umque cond1tion I am plagued w11h IS calle-d

"Hey Zebrahead, you must have for:got your glasses. You're

Very ba51C. but effective.
bentuatly, I prosreued ro a point where my quips not only
slandered rhe ref. but alia struck ;.t hi~ henuae.
"Hey ref, you run like you'vetot your mother on your ba<lk
and rour mother wurs anny bootk"
I developed a reputation. The very unerance of the word
referee brouthr madnm to my heart. The sound of a whistle
would tnger my nervous system and I would ready for an

you who uw "One Flew Over the Cuckoo'• Nest" and thousht
the cruies were either actor\ or real inmates. Wrons. All they
really did was so to the referee's auodauon. pick out the first
10 offidals they saw and told them to act natural. Jack
Nicholson was the only star who wasn't previously a ref.
Following hil frontal lobotomy he was Immediately named
