Melons, music mix at party MELONS from page 9 because they couldn’t drive.” Apparently, the connections don’t stop there. “There is also a strong correlation with spitting, too,” Green said. “Generally, it’s Copenhagen, but watermelon seeds work as well.” Green suspects Fibian will initiate some impromptu seed-spitting con tests to fill time during pauses in the evening’s activities. “Andy is a notorious chewer,” Green said. “He can probably spit far ther than anyone.” Rick Grady, Farmhouse presi dent, said the event was open to any one interested in free melon and music. “It’s an all-campus event, not nec essarily another fraternity and sorori ty party,” Grady said. “It’s a ^ party for anyone . ...^ who .***&£<•• - - v wants to come by and check it out.” The history of the “Music and Melons” festival is nearly as long as the distance traveled by a well-spat seed. Initiated in the late ’70s by Farmhouse members, the watermelon feed was a celebration of harvest and the advent of fall. To prepare for the night, fraterni ty members will rent a 50-gal lon cattle tank and pur^ chase every watermel on they find until the thing’s fu 11 said special events chair man Travis Edeal. “We buy out ^** ..-A !w*?w::::x:xv.v.. x every supermarket until we think we have enough,” Edeal said. Edeal estimates about 50 melons will be consumed Thursday, although excess is expected. “We usually eat the leftovers here at the house,” he said. “Last year we donated some to the Salvation Army, which we’ll probably do again.” Aaron Steckelberg/DN Stage group to perform for area kids THEATER from page 9 children’s abilities to comprehend serious material. Although a comedy, “Wiley and the Hairy Man” deals with some of the complex issues children confront everyday. Most of the cast of “Wiley and the Hairy Man” is new to children’s theater. Consequently, adapting to the different performance style posed some challenges, said Peters, who plays the dog. “Children’s theater is hard,” he said. “It’s physically demanding, and children don’t believe as easily as adults. Things have to be bigger, and you have to use your imagination more.” The group will present the play Oct. 7 at Brownell Elementary, Oct. 8 at Calvert Elementary and Oct. 17 at Prescott Elementary. Following each performance, the actors will invite children to partici pate in a 15-minute talk. “We want the kids to meet the characters and see that the actor is real,” Bucy explained. The cast will present the show for IJNL audiences on Friday at 7 p.m. and Saturday at 2 p.m. in Room 301 of the Temple Building. Tickets to the UNL shows are $5 for adults, and $3 for students and children under 12. Aif POSTAL SERVICEr« b, SO U.B.C. 33SS) I. Pjolcs-kviTl* — " T-^ ? Pifclicirtor Mo. 3.

Young designers display material in annual show TEXTILES from page 9 In conjunction with the exhib it, the College of Human Resources and Family Sciences played host to a variety of activi ties for the featured youth and their families last weekend. Saturday, the artists participat ed in several hands-on learning experiences led by textile field professionals. Workshop topics included using recycled fabrics and color discharge techniques. While the youth went to work shops, parents toured the college’s facilities, viewing a new quilt exhibit and computerized looms. “We wanted to do a better job with active learning for 4-Hers,” Tondl said. “We wanted to make them aware of opportunities in tex tiles and design. We also wanted to diversify what the parents know.” Sunday, the college sponsored an opening reception, during which artists gave presentations about their work. “If people could only hear the presentations from the 4-Hers, you would see the dedication, the cre ativity and the patience ... spent creating these items,” Tondl said. The exhibit runs through Oct. 16, Monday through Thursday, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. It’s on the second floor of the Home Economics build ing on East Campus. 4 W f ' fej 227 North 9th • Haymarket District Monday - Thursday in October jroik9^12pMU Except gamedays, Cook for other great specials. pon,tjor9et_ Pitcher price drops 25 $ per quarter during game.
