PASSION PLAY (CHRIO4O) has
been released for months now
and has caused mixed emotions
to both record buyers and
critics.
Indeed A PASSION
PLAY is a very musically
complex piece. It is not a bad
piece of music, only an ignorant
person would say that. It just
demands
some
listening,
something that most people in
this fast, cluttered, loud age of
rock have forgotten to do.
On the album along with
David
Palmer's
orchestra
lan Anderson
arrangements,
combines the use of tenor sax,
clarinet and his good ole flute.
Besides these instruments, John
Evan played his new Moog
Synthesizer. This created some
real grisly sounds. He used his
synthesizer like a tool and not
like a toy. This is a real
distinction from the Keith
Emerson style. The percussion
by Barriemore Barlow has never
been more artfully blended than
in this piece. There is a lot of
punchy
dueling
good
Rip-Offs!
Since our complex has opened
for the Fall school semester, we
have been victimized by a rash
of petty- larceny thefts. It would
be to everyone's best interests
(students- faculty- staff) to be
more alert to the problem and
observe a few simple rules:
1. Be sure to lock veliiclesclose windows, etc.
2. Do not pfcice on seats of
vehicles anything of value, eg.,
books, radios, etc. If necessary,
put them out of sight in the
trunk or bring into building and

Barre's electric guitar along with
Anderson's wind instruments
and Evan's keyboards. To put a
tight bottom on the whole thing,
is John Hammond- Hammond,
playing bass guitar. HammondHammond also narrates "The
Hare Who Lost His Spectacles"
which if you haven't figured it
out, is a social jab in the ribs.
The
overall
theme of A
PASSION PLAY is that although
Jesus Christ was portrayed as A
Passion Play, Anderson points
out that everyone who dies has
his own personal passion play.
The man who is portrayed on
the album dies. His spirit is
apprehended by the keepers of
the gate. He meets up with some
good angels as well as spending
some time in hell. He comes
back reincarnated as many
things. After many pains and
turmoils, he comes back again as
a man- only this time a little
wiser. It's all there in the words,
but it's not dished out for you.
Spend some time and "decode"
it. It may tell you something.

3. Do not carry unnecessary
amounts
of money. Limit
yourself to what you may use
for the day.
4. Do not leave purses, radios,
keys, etc. on tables in offices
and classrooms unattended.
5. Lock all offices when
leaving, even if only for a few
minutes.
6. Report to Safety and
Security all unusual occurrences
and suspicious persons. Ext.

The NCCC Ski Club met
officially for the first time on
27.
Thursday,
September
Almost 150 interested students
showed up, and enthusiastically
elected Corky Hilts as president.
Other officers voted in were:
Bruce Kullman, vice- president;
Debbie Cuzydlow, secretary;
Fran Wielogsz, treasurer.

continue as the club's Thursday

night
Eight
evenings of skiing and other
things will cost the ski club
member something like $2O-$25,
which is not a bad deal. (That
includes bus transportation to
and from the area). This sum is
due by November 28, with a
$3.00 additional late charge.
The first major outing is being
Thanksgiving
for
planned
vacation. Three days' skiing in
Vermont at Mt. Killington. The
cost is minimal; transportation
must be arranged for, and car
pools are being formed. (Yes,
Vermont SHOULD have plenty
of snow by the end of
November!) Interested members
should contact the Ski Club
office in "G" building for more
information.
A show of hands indicated
that there were a number of
beginners in the crowd. To help
dispel any hesitation they may
have, two "Learn to Ski" days
are being arranged. Volunteer
instructors are being sought.
Anyone interested should check
in at the Ski Club office.
For novices who aren't sure if
they really want to get into
skiing, the Ski Club has an
set

A
equipment- skis, boots and
poles— can be rented for the
entire season for just $35 from
Coupolo's in Canada. Corky has
asked Coupolo's to give NCCC
Ski Club members nothing but
"good stuff".
Also discussed was a "Ski
Swap" involving all the area
schools. Anyone with equipment
to sell could do so, with the
NCCC Ski Club receiving 10% of
the price, and the seller receiving
the remainder. It's a great way

As a closing note: yes, the
school insurance DOES cover
members while on the slopes...
just in case.

After a rocky start in the
season's opener on Septembe r
26, the NCCC Cross-Country
team came back to post an
impressive 23-37 victory over
Jamestown Community College
on September 29.
The double dual meet on the
26th saw NCCC facing tough
competition versus Erie County
Community College and Alfred
Tech. Erie triumphed over
NCCC with a 17-46 score, while
Alfred squeaked by with a 24-33
final tally.
Jim Huntington, NCCC'sonly
returning sophomore letterman,
had trouble with Erie and
Alfred, but returned to last
year's form against Jamestown,
taking second in a field of 19.
A promising newcomer to the
NCCC harriers is Jim Guzenski
from Medina, who posted a sixth
over-all finish in the first meet
and third against Jamestown.
Bunch running proved the
decisive factor in the Jamestown
meet, with Mark Devine, Dave
Allen
and
Joel
Truesdell
spearheading the pack.
