News brief Weyerhaeuser unable to pinpoint vandals It is now two weeks after the opening of rifle hunting season for blacktail deer, but Weyerhaeuser officials still don’t know who trashed their Lane County forest property. “We don’t have a total yet on how much damage was done, but it’s in the thousands,” said Mike Moskovitz, Weyerhaeuser spokesman. On Oct. 4, vandals damaged gate locks and lock boxes, felled trees to block roads, shot up signs and removed parts from logging equip ment. Most of the damage took place near Cottage Grove. Weyer haeuser opens its lands, totaling 268,000 acres, annually to hunters. — Sue Ryan Auditions continued from page 3 existing talent in entertaining au diences of all ages. Jackson said the anxiety was worth a chance of getting in the group. If On the Rocks was to call Jackson back, he said he will be ready to practice. And if not, Jack son said, “I’ve got homework to do.” After Jackson exited the audition, baritone candidate Ben Ordonez was still waiting outside Room 211. Ordonez said he did not know if he had enough time for the group because he was already busy with classes and singing in the Universi ty’s Gospel Ensemble. “It would be great to be in (On the Rocks). If not, there’s always next year. This is icing on the cake,” he said optimistically. After entering the room, Ordonez asked the members about how much time and commitment being a part of the group takes. On the Rocks plans to practice every Sun day, Tuesday and Thursday evening for two to three hours, Hol lens said. On the Rocks is also plan ning to perform new repertoire at their first gig Thursday, Oct. 18, in the EMU Amphitheater and attend regional a cappella championships in late January. Despite side comments and cell phone distractions, the members of On the Rocks tried to be profession al and respectful toward the candi dates auditioning. By 10:15 p.m. all the potential candidates had left, and the group of close friends gathered in a circle to select who they would be calling back. About 35 students tried out in the two-day search for tenor and second-bass voices. As they discussed the controver sial candidates, the group struggled with the ethics of turning away peers who were talented singers but had the wrong voice range. “What can they offer to the group?” Guenther, a junior, asked the others. “There is no reason to lead them on if we know they won’t be in,” said Peter Vomocil, a senior theater arts major. Strewing the papers of rejected candidates across the floor, the group discussed their criteria. Vo mocil wanted versatility. Guenther said he was worried about how quickly the candidates could transition into the group. Co-founder Leo Silva said the group needed members who could sing solos but did not need constant attention. Despite one argument, the group reached a consensus easily. They decided on seven candidates to in vite back. “We feel any of them can be in the group, but we can’t have that many people,” Guenther said. After callbacks on Sunday night, the group spent almost two hours finally choosing their new mem bers: Cooper Bombadil, Bass II, and Marcus Hathcock, who is a features reporter for the Emerald, Tenor I. “I think they are awesome,” Vo mocil said. “They are both really excited and really coachable. They are talented young voices.” Vomocil said he was looking for ward to seeing the new members grow in their abilities as singers with On the Rocks. “I think they definitely have a lot of valuable contributions,” he said. “And they like to barbecue.” Anne Le Chevallier is a features reporter for the Oregon Daily Emerald.
