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

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.”

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.

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.
