Breakthrough Treatment

refined a highly effective
therapy program for bulimics
using treatment interventions
known as exposure with
response prevention."

Garden is for research and beauty
By RUSTY CARTMI1.I.
itUfk nun » m«
After it* second year, the
All-America Garden re
mains a premier campus
garden spot and prized
research site At least to
those who are lucky enough
to find it
Sandwiched between
Snelling Hall and the phar
macy building, the 280-by
230-foot garden is surround
ed by parking lots and
greenhouses
Although its 200 plus
varieties of plants and
shrubs were first developed
elsewhere, for many of the
varieties the garden is their
first exposure to
Southeastern conditions,
said Allan Armitage, assis
tant horticulture professor
and co-founder of the
garden
■'We're not trying to in
troduce anything new," he
aaid "The breeding of the
plants we use was done in
California or Europe. which
both have vastly different
conditions from here "
Besides research, the
garden, which is open to the
public, also is intended to
teach and beautify. Ar
milage said
Started last year by Ar
mitage and Associate hor
ticulture Professor Mike
Dirr, the project uses ex
penmental seeds, fertilizers
and occasional money
grants from seed companies
In return the companies
receive test data
"Seed companies get a
whole lot more out of it than
they put in," Armitage said
"They want to test seeds in
the Southeast ”
Armitage added that he
saw growing interest in
lessors time by the Univer
sity. Armitage and Dirr said
the project had no monetary
funding by the University
"It’s not supported by the
University or the (hor
ticulture) department," Ar
mitage said
“We sort of beg, borrow,
steal, scrounge — anything
to keep it going,” Dirr said,
adding that students, hired
for maintenance during the
growing season are paid out
of grant money
In addition to the 200 "an-

professor
testing seeds in the South
because of the recent influx
of people to the region For
the public, plants are mark
ed so that visitors strolling
though the outdoor garden
can identify those that grow
well
Although groundwork for
the project was provided by
Physical Plant and
greenhouse space and pro-
nuals" — plant varieties that
must be replaced yearly —
the garden is also home to 15
to 20 varlties of "woodies" —
trees and shrubs. Dirr said
"The woodies are more or
less permanent," he said
"If they do well we keep
them

Although he has no
monetary grants from the

said he would try to have the
garden funded as a tie in

said he hoped !o add benches

‘ X’s ‘New World’ rocks
with guts and emotion
A review of "More Fun in
the New World,” by X Pro
duced by Ray Manzareh
An Elektra / Asylum
Nonesuch Records release
By JIM TRKMAYNE
Ke«J and Mark M*ff Hrilrr
Since its blazing 1979
debut, X has been a rock 'n
roll band thoroughly com
mitted to its craft Even
after critics hailed its se
cond effort. "Wild Gift
one of the greatest rock
albums of its time, X
unlike The Clash, for exam
pie, has refused to soften
its approach
X still relies on biting
guitar, jackhammer drum
ming. humanist lyrics, in
tricate harmonies and a
great deal of guts This
emotion has always been
the underlying quality of
X s persona that has made
that band s driving music
work consistently
After "Wild Gift,"
magazines from Rolling
Stone to Newsweek
recognized the great im
portance of X and wrote
that it was progressing into
being the Next Big Thing
It didn't happen Sales
were slow and airplay was
disappointing This was
because their follow-up.
"Under the Big Black
Sun," contained the gutsy
emotion they had displayed
all along The airwaves
were not receptive to lead
singer Exene Cervenka's
sorrowful but eloquent
songs about her late sister
So with the brand
spanking new "More Fun
in the New World." X has
accepted its fate, even
ridiculed it. and has gained
solid results
The second song We re
Having Much More Fun"
encapsulates X's attitude
about success tor lack of
it) The critics be damned!
X will never stray from its
course, and the band is
happier for not doing so.
The public shouldn't have
them any other way.
Though cult status many
times defeats the purpose
of rock. X may be an excep
tion Their "Breathless.”
from the film of the same
title, is a wonderful pop-
rock ditty Exene sings as
well as she ever has, while
guitarist Billy Zoom cranks
a subtle wall of sound
"Make the Music Go
Bang" brings out images of
a "dark, sweaty bar" that
Athenians know well This
song proves that singer
writer-bassist John Doe
truly understands rock n
roll as he sings that he
prefers his music
"brilliant, shining and nas
*y"
Doe knows that rock isn't
made by Julliard students
but by those who "drink a
beer from a paper bag
while we still got lime "
"I Must Not Think Bad
Thoughts'' tackles issues of
personal guilt and the
radio Doe is caught in the
dilemma of being
American and disagreeing
with American foreign
policies He speaks of
"blood on his hands" and
being a "no-good coward
and an American." This is
an issue all conscientious
Americans should con
sider
The second part of the
song laughs at the current
state of American radio,
which has now accepted
new wave, but only if it's
from synthesizer diddlers
X asks "what about the
Minutemen, Flesh
Eaters the Black Flag’"
X displays great spirit on
"I Must Not Think Bad
Thoughts." but it may be a
losing battle
Billy Zoom delivers his
hottest licks since "Los
Angeles" on "Devil Doll,"
a funny tune about a hard
core punk girl who "makes
people turn their heads and
scares little kids "
"More Fun” ends with
"True Love Pt »2," a song
which pays homage to rock
classics such as Elvis's
"Burning Love" and Gene
Vincent's "Be-Bop A-
Lula ”
Screaming guitars, con
structive social criticism
and a great rock 'n' roll
sense make this one of the
better albums of the year
