What is there to do when the days shrink and the rain comes.’ (I mean besides guzzling beer and twiddling your thumbs.) Good question. Below is a guide to some of hugcne’s more ex citing forms of entertainment, and suggestions to help cure those winter blues. Well, the first thing that usually comes to mind is the movie.

Invite your friends, dress as your favorite characters, (and, if you must, guzrle a few. . .) Not your style.’ For those of you who enjoy a more cultural form of entertainment there is always the Hult Center. Beginn ing Dec. 1, the center will feature everything from South African entertainment to the Nylons to The Nutcracker (per formed by the Eugene Ballet). Eugene also houses a number of other performance theaters, including the University’s own Robinson Theatre, the Very Little Theatre, 2)S0 Hilyard St., and the theater at South Eugene High School, 400 E. 19th A vc. On the lighter side, you could catch some relatively inexpen sive chuckles at the Black Angus-KZEL comedy night. Every Tuesday evening at 9 p.m., the Black Angus features the popular comedy talent of such names as Jeb Fink, bagpipe comedian John Johnston, and ventriloquist John Kennar. Tickets are $4 per person; however, if you eat dinner at the Black Angus the same even ing, admission is free. Speaking of dinner, if you are one to stuff your face more as a form of entertainment than as a means of sustenance, perhaps Eugene's overwhelming popula tion of restaurants is your ticket to fun. Sample the ethnic tastes of t h e B .1 sari a n t i e r m a n Restaurant and Keller, 444 L Vd Avc., the C 'hmese cuisine of Lee's Far Last, across front Autren Stadium, a famous Main’s cal:one or a gyro from the Greek Isle Cafe at the Sth Street Public Market. Fop it off with a triple-scoop ice cream cone from Prince Puckler's and You’re all set.
