Because Draper works in the registration office, and most people at this school will most likely come to the registrars office, most students have probably been a "victim" of her courteous manner and warm and friendly smile. Somehow, you're almost glad you didn't stay home and use the phone registration sys- J Sting hits CD lacks substance tem. So what's with the long lines? "People just don't use the phone system," Draper said. "Many probably don't even know about it." And all of this despite numerous signs along the hallway leading up to the registrar's office that read: "Don't want to stand in line? Use the phone system!" With all the traffic at the beginning of the quarter, does Draper ever get frustrated? "Oh, yes," she says. "Sometimes you look out and see 50 to 60 people standing in line and you want to panic, but you get through it." How? "Tennis helps out," she says. "So does golf. They're both good stress burners." Draper has worked at the Registrar's office for 18 months. She moved to St. George from Logan to major in business administration, which Draper says she enjoys because of the way she can apply business concepts to her daily life. After 10 short years, one would think Sting had accumulated enough Top-1- 0 hits to fill a greatest hits album. Unfortunately, it's not really he should have complete waited another 10 years. At 14 songs, S (my: Field-- of THE DIXIE SUN Poetic Injustice began its first poetry reading of 1995 last Wednesday in the San Fransiscan Bakery and Cafe. The club is now an club, but is still for college students, club organizers say. The college withdrew its sanction of the club at the end of fall quarter after what club members say was a misunder- standing. At the final meeting of fall quarter, a college official entered the room and saw a display of artwork, candles and burning incense. The official reportedly told students they could not light The Greatest Hits T min Cold contains about six "hits" and eight songs most of us have probably never heard of. This is not to say that Sting's effort has failed. It's just that the album is misnamed. 1984-199- Kate Draper poses for a portrait on the Dixie College campus Thursday. Draper, who works in the registration office, is known on campus for her courteous manner and friendly smile. When she isn't helping as many as 60 people an hour, depending on the time of the year. Draper enjoys skiing. She did a lot of skiing in Logan, but hasn't had as much of an opportunity in sunny St. George. Given her love for golf and tennis, however, it's evident that she has adapted to life in Dixie. Ever the student. Draper for or interest in television, books or movies. When she is able, though. Draper catches an episode of Seinfeld or the Simpsons, or listens to R.E.M. or Midnight Oil. Sometimes, however, all she needs is a nice hot bath to help melt the stress away.

Club founder and host Ryan Allred, apparently unaware of the code, extinguished the candles. Later, club members allege, another person entered the room, accused the club of devil worship, and said the group could no longer hold meetings on campus. Allred later tried to explain the misunderstanding to college officials, to no avail. The college's position was that the club did not have an adviser and could not continue without one. Allred said he asked several faculty members, but none volunteered. Allred did not return for Winter quarter, but Crystal Meth and Kendra Shaffer revived the club. They approached the owner of the San Franciscan, which provides an appropriate for club activities, and he agreed to host future readnt ings. "We simply want a night of poetic bliss," Shaffer said. "This is my way of expressing myself and my emotions. This is my pressure release." Club members say they harbor no ill will toward the college, but add that they don't want college officials controlling their activities. Poetic Injustice meets each Wednesday at 8 p.m. at the San Fransiscan. 4 It either should have been an e.p., a singles collection, a boxed set of all his songs, or simply a compilation of greatremixes or est hits, unreleased tracks. Such gems as Sting's duet with Pavarotti, his Christmas song "The Angel Gabriel" or his new version of "Demolition Man," which was only available on the film's soundtrack, would have been ideal. But enough about the misnomer. Fields of Cold is good listening. It starts off with a wonderful new track called "When We Dance," an elegiac ballad complete with chord progressions and rich backup vocals in the best Seivn Days andlVii Should I Cry For You ? fashion. The album moves on to a surprisingly low amount of material from his latest album ust two Ten Sumiuoiiers Tales songs. Where are Nothin' 'Bout Me, Seven Days or It's Probably Me?, all of which were released and did reasonably well. What does a song have to do nowadays to qualify as a "greatest hit?" What is present are a bunch of songs from the tortured Soul Cages album (his fine but over- wrought 1991 album that wasn't as accessible as Sting's other works). Please see STING, Page 6 |
