Wal-Mart rejected

By Colin Grey | March 31, 1994

The Lebanon Planning Board said Tuesday it will not allow Wal-Mart, a national discount superstore chain, to move onto Route 12A in West Lebanon because the store would cost the town $4,000,000 in facility upgrades. The intended site for the store was at the corner of Interchange Drive and Route 12A, a strip already crowded by fast food restaurants and commercial outlets. "The public highways providing access to the site do not have adequate capacity for the safety of vehicles, pedestrians and bicycles and the improvements necessary to create adequate capacity ... will require an excessive expenditure of public funds," the denial motion passed by the board stated.

Student Artisans craft fine jewelry in design studio

By Colin Grey | March 31, 1994

When Erling Heistad talks about Dartmouth's Claflin Jewelry Studio at the Hopkins Center for the Performing Arts, his blue eyes glow brightly and the corners of his mouth curl into a contented smile. Heistad has run the Jewelry Studio, tucked away in the basement of the Hop, since he first set it up in 1966, and he speaks lovingly of the workshop which he has nurtured from its inception. "I want to have a process that allows you to challenge yourself and do it in a non-threatening environment," Heistad said. The Jewelry Studio offers a golden opportunity for students to expand their learning beyond the courses offered in the Organizations, Regulations and Courses book. It is one of three student workshops.

Improved Oscar ceremony honors fine films of 1993

By Susan Zieger | March 28, 1994

Just as Oskar Schindler comes to see the truth of the Holocaust in "Schindler's List," the Oscars themselves reflect an awareness of how films influence public perception of historical truth. "Schindler's List," though it depicts events that happened decades ago, is particularly relevant now, when Holocaust deniers propagate their view around the nation and when a recent national survey found that nearly one-fifth of Americans doubt that the Holocaust happened at all. The phenomenon of "Schindler's List" is intriguing.

Student tenor sings

By Joe Marcheso | March 7, 1994

Judd Serotta '94 , tenor, gave a strong senior vocal recital with Bill Guerin '96 yesterday in Faulkner Auditorium. The program ranged from Handel and Beethoven to English folk songs, arranged by the country's pre-emminent 20th century composers. In "Ammarili, mia bella", Serotta and Guerin revised the heavily romanticised rendition available to them with something more appropriate for the 20th century. Serotta sang the pieces with immaculate diction although he could have rolled his 'R's more effectively, especially when singing Italian. While his interpretation at times contradicted the style, Serotta was very relaxed and exhibited a high degree of musicality. Serotta's nerves caused him to begin a bit tentatively in the Handel and consequently he did not fully capture the interpretive flavor of the piece.

Production staff perform behind-the-scenes magic

By Jack Vaitayanonta | March 2, 1994

In a term packed with unprecedented and powerful dramatic productions, some of the people most responsible for the successes of the plays are not the ones whom the audience sees acting and performing on stage. The faceless individuals who work behind the scenes are some of the true engineers of the theater.
