in the PCL in l!Xi3 The Frosh
squad in 1983 was undefeated
in nine matches with fine in

Robertson, Iiob Mitchell and
Dave Youngbluth, yet the mat
men rate no more publicity
than a small column article
buried on the inside pages.
Wrestling takes a lot more
skill than football, basketball
and baseball Training is stren

more individual stamina that a
lot of other sports.
The U.O. Athletic Publicity

to the community, the athletes,
the sport and the school, if the
wrestling publicity was im
proved.

Noh Theatre...
(Continued from page I)
“The Noh Theater is essentially
modern and is the largest of its
kind in Japan,” concluded NafT.
Naff has taught at several uni
versities among which are UCLA,
Stanford, and Washington. He has
translated numerous Japanese
short stories and musical compo
sitions, and during 1960-61 he was
a Ford Foundation Fellow in Jap
an.
Three points in Naff’s lecture
were:
• The Noh Theater has been
a representation of Japanese cul
ture for 1000 years.
• The Noh dramas are essen
tially non-verbal.
• There is little ornamentation
in Noh plays.
One thing is certain. What Naff
told the Browsing Room audience
about the Noh Theater w'as cer
tainly 1000 years removed from
the American “clap and stomp
show” in progress a block down
the street in Mac Court where
the New Christy Minstrels were
wailing out the latest popular folk
songs.

It Passed
So the bond measure passed.
So the chancellor and all the
guys said, “Well, let’s build. We
got the dough. Let us relieve
those sardine students and the
kingfisher professors.” So the
hammers will ring out across the
sprawled summer campus and rat
a-tat on into the fall, and we will
not be able to hear the words of
wisdom dropping from behind the
podium, but there will be a roof
over our heads, and maybe more
room in the library. D.Q. should
taste twice as good It will be d
13th and Hilyard, out of the ham
mer region.
