The Daily Eastern News' weekly arts and entertainment section
Overwhelmed with his stressful marriage, Charlie
Baker just wanted to get away to some place quiet where
no one would bother him.
Now, thanks to his friend’s clever ploy, Charlie has to
listen to the life story of every other guest in their “get-
away” location; he even gets caught up in the business of
some Ku Klux Klan members.
This ironic situation ignites conflict in Larry Shue’s
1980 comedic play “The Foreigner,” which the Charles-
ton Community Theatre will perform at 7:30 p.m. Fri-
day and Saturday and at 2 p.m. Sunday in the Tarble Arts
Center.In the play, main character Charlie follows Sargent
“Froggy” LeSueur from England to a rural fishing lodge
in Georgia, where Froggy tells the lodge owner that
Charlie cannot speak English.
Froggy, hoping he would deter people from speaking
to Charlie, ends up making his friend a magnet for peo-
ple and their problems instead.
Richard Jones, a communication studies professor and
the director of the play, said this scenario incites much of
the humor of Shue’s play.
He said Charlie winds up having to create a back-sto-
ry and his own nonsensical language on the spot when
people start interacting with him.
“As an audience member, you feel good that it’s not
you in that situation, so you can kind of laugh at some-
one else who’s in that situation,” Jones said.
Although Charlie’s situation is funny, there are also
more serious themes in the story as it unfolds.
Some of the locals in the Georgia town are KKK
members who are upset by the presence of the “foreign-
er.”Jacob Norris, th
e actor who plays lead KKK member
Owen Musser, said his character embodies the stereotype
of a redneck.
“You should despise me,” Norris said. “At first you
think I’m just your average, dumb redneck, but you will
hate me as the play goes on.”
Jones said an overarching theme for the play is how
people deal with changes in their lives, including the
KKK members.
“We have the people who are a part of the Klan who
are going through this change because the world is be-
coming more multicultural,” he said. “People are more
accepting of difference, and so they see their world is
changing.”
Charlie deals with the changes in his own life at the
same time, Jones said.
“Charlie sees his world is changing because he doesn’t
find any meaning in what he does,” he said. “He’s had
the same job for 17 years, and he’s married to this wom-
an who doesn’t love him back.”

Staff Report
Grant Avenue between Seventh and Ninth streets will be closed from Monday through Nov. 4 for maintenance on the university’s steam lines.
Chad Weber, a senior engineer for Eastern’s Facilities Planning and Management, said the lines trans-port steam from the university’s Center for Clean Energy Research and Education (CENCERE) to buildings across campus, and that
crews will be modifying the lines to add additional sump pumps.
Crews will also be working on the steam pipeline that runs under-neath Ninth Street between Grant and Roosevelt avenues, resulting in occasional single lane closures from Oct. 16 through Nov. 15.
More information on closures and construction can be found on Eastern’s Facilities Planning and Management website at eiu.edu/fpm.

Future of Syria conflict bleak, professors sayBy Robert downenAdministration Editor@DEN_News
The Syrian conflict is far from over.
No winners have been crowned; no white flags have been raised.
For more than 5 million displaced Syrians, each day of gunfire is an-other day from the dust and rubble
of home, and as the barrels of rebel guns slowly begin to turn on one an-other, the death toll simply climbs.
Syria is decimated, dying, and there’s nothing we can do to stop it.
These were just a few of the sen-timents shared by three Eastern professors at a panel discussion on Thursday.
The panel, “Syria and Beyond,” focused on the geographic, political
and historical context of both Syria and the Middle East, and while the intent of the forum was not to es-tablish a universally-applicable poli-cy stance on the war-torn nation, it did end with one solemn agreement: the fighting in Syria is far from over.
Ahmed Abou-Zaid, an associ-ate professor of economics, said the most difficult aspect of the Syr-ian conflict is the plethora of reb-
el groups spilling into the warzone, many of which he said are danger-ous to the entire region’s stability.
Groups like Al-Nusra Front, an Al Qaeda affiliate based in Syria, have complicated the Syrian conflict im-mensely, he said, and have deterred international actors opposed to the Assad from aiding rebel forces.
Abou-Zaid said recent projec-tions have estimated reconstruc-
tion of the nation would cost more than $50 billion, a number he said is problematic for a country current-ly plagued by more 50 percent un-employment.
“If Syria were to receive no out-side help from foreign contribu-tions, and start the reconstruction process right now, it would take 25 years to rebuild,” he said.

Author works with humor in diagnosisBy Marcus CurtisEntertainment Editor @DEN_News
Love, understanding and guidance are three things David Finch emphasized dur-ing his inspirational, yet humorous speech Thursday in the Dvorak Concert Hall in the Doudna Fine Arts Center.
The best way to describe Finch’s lecture is humorous. From the very beginning of his speech, he got the audience to burst into laughter. Finch poked fun at the way Gale Richard, the chair of he communica-tion and disorder sciences department, pre-sented him.
“I feel special being presented like that,” Finch said, “I need to take her with me ev-ery where I go to present me.”
Finch is the author of The New York Times bestseller, “The Journal of Best Prac-tices.” Finch’s book is an account of his life with Asperger Syndrome, which is a mild case of autism.
During the lecture, Finch discussed how he did not have intentions to inspire people with his book, he only expected to receive some positive feedback.
Finch also explained how he received messages from parents whose children have Asperger syndrome. He explained how doctor’s informed parent’s that their chil-dren have Asperger Syndrome in a regret-ful manner.
Finch, being diagnosed with Asperger syndrome, said he remains humorous de-spite his condition, which is what he em-phasizes during his talks.
Despite not gaining knowledge of his condition until later years in his life, Finch gave examples of his symptoms back to ear-lier years in his life.
Finch told the audience how his teach-er in second grade ridiculed and humiliated him for not keeping his desk clean. He said his second grade teacher gave him a certifi-cate for having the messiest desk and influ-enced the entire classroom to laugh at him.
Finch also said he had trouble staying fo-cused on tasks. He said in first grade he had complications completing a task that con-sisted of creating a kite.
Finch said the sound of the clock and his teacher’s southern drawl, which he had nev-er heard before, contributed to his distrac-tion away from the assignment.
Reminiscing on those hard times, he said he remained humorous, and sent the crowd into laughter again once he began an im-itation of his first grade teacher’s southern accent.
These behaviors extended over to his life in college. Surprisingly, Finch was able to joke about his roommate threatening to kill him because of how irritating and messy he was. Finch would later move out because of the threats from his roommate.
In addition to inspiring individuals with Asperger syndrome, Finch also said he re-ceived messages from couples who were ex-periencing relationship problems.
Finch is married to Kristen Finch, an Eastern graduate. He mentioned how there were times in throughout their marriage where he appeared to be inconsiderate and emotionless.

The Students Today, Alumni To-morrow organization, along with the help from Student Govern-ment, will be hosting a golf outing for Eastern alumni, current students and university supporters on Satur-day.
The registration and lunch will start at noon, followed by tee time at 1 p.m. at Meadowview Golf Course in Mattoon.
The cost of the outing is $45, and golfers will receive a meal, 18 holes of golf, two drink tickets as well as a T-shirt.
Students Today, Alumni Tomor-row and the golf outing were re-cently put together through the Student Senate.
This will be the first activity the group has hosted since its forma-tion.
Brandi Binder, the chair of the Student Senate Alumni committee and a Students Today, Alumni To-morrow member, said they hope to make it an annual event.
“We are hoping it will be suc-cessful and just continue to grow every year from now on,” Binder said.
The two groups have successful-ly received the needed sponsorships they were hoping for.
They have six sponsors for the T-shirts and 14 sponsors for each hole.
They are no longer taking spon-sors because the signs and shirts are
in the process of being made.The sponsor will get his or her
own hole on the golf course with a custom sign for $25 per hole
For $50, the sponsor will have their logo printed on the official golf outing T-shirts.
And for $75, sponsors will re-ceive both their custom sign on a hole, as well as their logo printed on the t-shirt.
Binder said their goal was to bring alumni back to Eastern.
Binder said this was a way for students and alumni to come to-gether, as well as promote Students Today, Alumni Tomorrow.
She said current students are en-
couraged to come and get involved with past students to gain advice and networking tips.
Currently, 41 people will be par-ticipating, Logan Clifton, a senate member, said.
If rained out, participants will only play the first nine holes.
Students Today, Alumni Tomor-row and the senate have promoted the event by sending out emails to staff, faculty and students.
They also advertised through Facebook and several of the Eastern pages such as student government and student life, and placed the in-formation on flyers and electronics in the quads.
Student Body President Kayl-ia Eskew said it will be a great net-working opportunity for current students.
“I also see this as a way for alum-ni to reconnect with the universi-ty through connections with cur-rent students,” Eskew said. “I hope that meeting these alumni will in-spire the current students to stay in-volved with the university after they graduate.”

Members of Eastern’s accredita-tion steering committee will con-vene in their monthly meeting to explore topics concerning the crite-ria and the results of Eastern’s self-study.
This meeting will inform mem-bers of the committee on how the accreditation is going and the cri-teria will be given through a brief presentation on topics provided by members of the North Central As-
sociation.Jeff Stowell, co-chair of the steer-
ing committee of the NCA, said he will be sharing the preliminary re-sults to the self study that was done here at Eastern.
This self-study that was conduct-ed by the Higher Learning Com-mission of the NCA will evaluate Eastern and give the accreditation.
Marshall Lassak, an associate pro-fessor of mathematics, and Linda Holloway, the assistant director in payroll and benefits, will join Stow-
ell to give a brief presentation on summarized criteria in the meeting.
The meeting is titled “Integrity: Ethical and Responsible Conduct.”
This presentation will provide more details in Eastern’s status re-garding the criteria of ethics, integ-rity and responsibility, Stowell said.
The meeting will take place at 7:30 a.m Friday morning in Seventh Street Underground at the Martin Luther King Jr. University Union.

The enrollment figures report-ed in the article “Noel-Levitz to conclude consulting period” in Thursday’s issue of The Daily East-ern News were incorrect. A graph-ic accompanying the article identi-fied the enrollment figures as com-ing from the vice president for aca-demic affairs’ office, but the figures came from the press release “Fall Numbers Show EIU's Enrollment Management Strategy Taking Hold” archived on Eastern’s website, and an editor misread the information. The correct fall enrollment is 9,775.
The News regrets the error.

Jeannie Ludlow, the director of women’s studies, describes privilege as a “lack of oppression” – and this idea of privilege will be the focus of her workshop, “Where We Stand: Privi-lege in the Classroom.”
The workshop will be at 11:30 a.m. Friday in the Grand Ballroom of the Martin Luther King Jr. University Union.
The presentation will be looking at how the idea of privilege in the class-room can affect the learning process, and ways to work with diversity to en-rich the learning experience.
“The goal of critiquing privilege is to make it go away, to make things equal for everyone,” Ludlow said. “Un-til everything is equal for everyone we have this concept called privilege, be-cause some people have things a little easier than others.”
She said what happens in a class-room setting is different people – in-cluding faculty members, the students and even guest speakers – come from different places and people behave as if none of that matters – which she said
is not true. “We’re actually a very rich people
in terms of diversity and experiences,” Ludlow said. “And I think that diver-sity makes us more interesting, and it makes knowledge more interesting.”
Ludlow said one thing she would be incorporating into her workshop would be an activity the audience could take back to their classrooms.
The activity would require members to stand in a straight line. Statements are then read off and as they apply to each person, that person moves a step forward.
“When you get done, you can see we aren’t all in a straight line,” Lud-
low said. She said the activity is good to use
in the classroom when a discussion be-gins to break down because of differ-ences.
“If you’re sitting in class and things are starting to break down, one of the best things you can do is get people up and moving around, because it refo-cuses the energy,” Ludlow said. “If you do this in your class, you can get the students to start thinking about and seeing how their different view points – rather than being at tension with one another – enriches your understanding about whatever you’re talking about.”
The idea for her doing a workshop based on white privilege came from a similar presentation she gave at last year’s EIUnity.
Ludlow said she liked the notion of making privilege a known-topic, espe-cially in classrooms.
“The idea of talking about privilege in the classroom is talking about ways to welcome less-privileged voices to speak up and tell their perspective as well,” Ludlow said.

It’s time to start paying college athletes.The common argument against paying college athletes with, you
know, real money, is that college athletes are already paid with scholar-ships, but is a scholarship real money? Not quite. A college degree does hold value, but that value isn’t necessarily monetary. Would you do any job that didn’t pay you in real money? Why should a coach be making, in some cases, a six-figure salary, while the players get nothing? Do you think Nick Saban or Mike Krzyzewski are going to trade in their cash for classes anytime soon? Doubt it.
I know what you’re thinking, but if college athletes want to leave col-lege with a worthwhile degree that can actually make them money, why don’t they all try and become doctors or engineers? Surely, some do, but with everything high profile college athletes have to do in a regular work week, from practices, to traveling for games, to team meetings, to inter-views, to actually playing on the field, the time left for the course work that those classes actually require isn’t much.
For a lot of college athletes, the degrees that they leave with aren’t the same as the degrees of regular students. The time commitment that is required for athletes to their respective sports don’t allow them to have the same college experience as others. They can’t go to as many special presentations or lectures after class, they can’t join as many major-specif-ic organizations, and when they leave school, their degree isn’t worth as much as others.
College athletes are being cut out of a million dollar industry and most leave without much to show for it. Not everyone goes pro, and as crazy as it may sound, not everyone is at college for the same reason.
CLAWSShould college athletes be paid?
By Bob Galuski News Editor
Paying college athletes is akin to simply just spending more money on top of scholarships they already receive.
Yes, if you take away classes and the college settings from these athletes, all that is left is basically the pros. However, it is that one thing that makes all the difference – this is college. They attend classes. They are college students.
With being students come certain standards. Playing football or basket-ball is not considered a full-time job while at school, in the same way work-ing with an organization or company is not. The scholarships they receive and the stepping-stone they have to something greater should be compensa-tion enough for athletes.
Internships and other facets of college work in the same way – most are unpaid and the only payment received is in the form of experience. Not that athletes do not put in the amount of work that should be paid, but so do countless other students who did not have the opportunity to receive things like scholarships.
Scholarships should be enough for athletes, as well as the opportuni-ties they have, like maybe a shot at the pros. Now, I know only a very, very small percentage actually go pro, but that should also be taken into consid-eration when going to college.
Being a part of athletics is a phenomenal opportunity, but it is also not the end-all-be-all of the world, and scholarships are a good reward. The scholarship money spent on athletes to attend college is money that could be spent elsewhere.
Anyway you dice it, though, college is about looking at the future, and in my future, I think I would like to see scholarships be athletes only com-pensation.

Monuments of blues, rock: The Rolling Stones50thIt is with fondness that I remember the
first time I ever heard The Rolling Stones, and it was with my music-loving dad, my first influence on solid rock n’ roll.
It was in my formative years that I learned a deep appreciation for songs like “Sympa-thy for the Devil,” “Gimme Shelter,” and “Jumpin’ Jack Flash” to name a few.
The work of these gods of rock harkens back to a time of social relevance, drugs, sex-ual promiscuity and genuine societal ills that always ties me to their music and their never ending influence.
Robyn Hitchcock, an English singer song-writer once said, “The Beatles were something everyone had in common; this was thirty years ago, there was Doctor Who and every-body knew who the Daleks were and there was The Beatles and everybody knew who George Harrison was.”
If the Beatles are synonymous with “Doc-tor Who”, then The Rolling Stones are “Star Wars.” A fantastic blend of American blues and rock n’ roll of the British Invasion, but 50 years ago when they first debuted with their title album, they began hitting the top record charts with their second string singles second only to their British counterpart the
Beatles.In fact, there are no singles on their first
album that were original content. But man, The Rolling Stones are one of the great-est bands to ever rock the earth. Even today we talk about how many shows they’ve per-formed and how many drugs they took, and they have been immortalized in every single way. Whether it is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, in England, or even here in the U.S. in the countless museums and concerts we have contributed to their success.
The band name, The Rolling Stones was taken from an old blues song by Mud-dy Waters called “Rollin’ Stone” as a gesture on behalf of the group to the style of R&B music. Since that time they have released over 20 studio albums (the first eight having been
all number one albums), 11 live recordings, Ranked fourth on Rolling Stone Magazine’s “100 Greatest Artists of All Time,” and have sold more than $200 million worth of music in the last 50 years.
Though you can argue the greatest band of all time is The Beatles, they were initially the boys with guitars and mop tops who wore nice suits for the girls on Friday nights. The Rolling Stones were never about being accept-ed and that made them more iconic, partic-ularly in the in the early-mid seventies when they moved to France as a way of protest to the British Government and their insanely high tax rates.
So here’s to 50 years of the Rolling Stones, and for a legacy both darker and longer than any other, except of course The Beatles and Led Zeppelin. And to those out there who think these old fogies have nothing to offer, ask yourself this:
Why would a handsome young man like Adam Levine, front man of Maroon 5 talk about having moves like Mick Jagger?

Even though Eastern’s relationship with the enrollment management-consulting firm Noel-Levitz is being reduced because enrollment is not at an optimum high, the entire relationship was not a failure.
One of the big victories Eastern can take away from its relationship with Noel-Levitz is the rais-ing of average GPA with students and ACT scores, as well as the overall academic profiles.
Eastern’s correlation to enrollment and aca-demic standards can seem tricky at times.
On one hand, one could argue it is better to take higher GPA and test scores than lowering standards to accept more people. However, East-ern, like a machine, needs certain components to operate. One of those components is a high enrollment.
It’s an often-uneven line the university needs to walk to make sure the students being accept-ed are to an Eastern standard, but that Eastern is also helping itself by having enough students.
While the enrollment numbers are a bit disap-pointing, it is important to keep in mind this is also a work in progress.
The average entrance ACT among fresh-man rose approximately one point, from 21 to 22, and the average entering high school GPA increased from 3.07 to approximately 3.31.
These are good numbers to take into account, especially since so often the enrollment is what is focused on.
Enrollment will not be fixed or solved over-night and many attempts will revolve around tri-al and error processes.
The academic profile of students can help improve enrollment too. Even though standards may be looking a little high, it can encourage stu-dents to at least consider Eastern as a well-round-ed school.
As stated before, Eastern is like a machine. While enrollment numbers are an essential part to it, it also needs a high quality of standard.
If the standards of admittance to Eastern decrease so low, to the point where anybody can walk in, just to meet an enrollment count, the university will not thrive either.
Walking the balance of enrollment and qual-ity does not mean one has higher value than the other, it simply means Eastern has improved on one aspect that can help it out in the long run, while still trying to make improvements to another aspect.
Student quality should be accounted for

The Residence Hall Association went over their plans for what they will be doing for Homecoming week at their meeting Thursday in Steven-son Hall.
This year’s Homecoming activities will take place from Oct. 14 until 19.
RHA’s Programming Committee members will be planning RHA’s in-volvement for the parade at 9:30 a.m. Oct. 19.
Kadie Peterson, the programming committee chairwoman, said they are looking for volunteers to represent their hall for the homecoming parade.
All resident hall members and res-idents who wish to participate in the parade will be required to register their hall on the RHA website.
Laura Imbirowicz, the Lawson Hall resident director, said this is a depar-ture from last year when each hall would register separately which caused problems when organizing who would be participating in the parade.
RHA members must register their hall by Oct. 11.
Residence hall students can also participate when their hall is regis-tered.
Participants will carry banners, pass out candy and make Eastern cheers.
The University Board Homecom-ing Commission is also hosting a “Deck-the-Halls” competition, in which volunteers will be able to paint the windows, decorate the front desk and lobby for their resident hall on Tuesday Oct. 13, Imbirowicz said.
Peterson said RHA members will also work on spirit banners and boards, which will be displayed dur-ing the homecoming parade.
Peterson said homecoming week is a way to expose what RHA is and bring halls together.
“We want to bring Eastern togeth-er as a community and promote it to the Charleston community,” Peterson said.
RHA Vice President Patrick Mor-row said the Bond Revenue Commit-tee still needs another member from RHA.
The Bond Revenue Committee consists of three RHA members and three Senate members.
“This committee looks at Eastern budget, where the money goes, and figure out room and board rates for next year, ” Morrow said.
Morrow said any member of RHA could take the position, and if inter-ested should contact RHA President Miguel Williams.
There are no specific criteria to be a part of the committee but availability will be taken into account.
Those whose schedules are the most compatible between RHA and Sen-ate members will get the spot, Mor-row said.
Mark Hudson, Director of Hous-ing and Dinning, will be contacted to determine the new members for the Bond Revenue Committee.
Patrick Fay, a sophomore finance major, said they have not really been active in RHA.
“I guess you can say we shut down a bit,” Fay said. “We are trying to get back on track. I have volunteered to recruit new members.”
Fay has currently recruited Rachel Morlan, a sophomore business major, who is currently one of only three new RHA members representing Greek Courts.
The next RHA meeting will take place at 5 p.m. Oct. 17 at Thomas Hall.

AMAnDA WilkinSon | THe DAily eASTern ne WSAhmed Abou-Zaid, an associate professor of economics, explains the current economic situation in Syria thurs-day in Room 1895 of the martin Luther King Jr. University Union. Abou-Zaid said Syria currently has 50 percent unemployment.
» SyriA COnTInUeD FROM PAGe 1
» AUTHor COnTInUeD FROM PAGe 1
David Carwell, an assistant professor of political science, said one of the big-gest sources of strife in Syria is a conse-quence of the general structure and sys-tematic influence of the nation’s ruling Ba’ath Party.
He said the Ba’ath Party, which ac-counts for only 10-15 percent of the entire Syrian population, wields influ-ence and oversight in a fashion similar to communist rule in years leading up to the Soviet Union’s collapse.
“The people inside the party are giv-en security, access to school, jobs, and that creates a coalition of people who say ‘I don’t follow the party because I believe it, but because it benefits me,’” Carwell said.
This party structure has put those compliant with the regime “in the same boat” as al-Assad, Carwell said. And be-
cause they shared the rewards of mem-bership, they must, too, share what punishments might come for their role in the Ba’ath Party, he added.
That mentality, as well as a pow-er structure not entirely dependent on Assad’s influence, he said, has made the ruling regime much less susceptible to overthrow than those of recently de-posed autocrats throughout the Arab region.
Brian Mann, an assistant profes-sor of history, said the region’s complex history of ethnic, religious and cultural conflict should deter the United States from intervening.
He said, should the regime fall, the overwhelming number of rebel groups representing different religious sects and wielding influence inside the state could actually escalate violence, as the nation’s
power struggle would only cause fight-ing between groups like Al-Nusra and the Free Syrian Army.
Ultimately, all three panelists agreed the future of Syria to be rather bleak, a sentiment echoed in their collective-ly firm opposition to American inter-vention.
“As morally disgusting as is sounds, as bad as it sounds, from a pure poli-cy position, it’s in the best interest of the United States for this to keep going on,” Carwell said. “There’s no one who looks like Thomas Jefferson that seems like they’re going to win.”

One example was when Finch and his wife spent Thanksgiving with her family. Finch said he was very agitated and dissatisfied with the food, and he was very vocal about his discomfort.
In addition, Finch mentioned his in-considerate behavior once his daughter was born. There was a situation where Finch refused to carry his daughter to the room because he was tired from work. Finch said he made the situation worse by suggesting his wife cook din-ner in addition to taking their daughter
to the room.Finch said it was not until his wife
began to work with children with As-perger syndrome that he discovered he himself possessed Asperger syndrome.
Once Finch’s wife gained knowledge of his condition, Finch said she accept-ed it by giving him love, understanding
and guidance – something he didn’t re-ceive from his teachers or his roommate in college.
Finch said there is one more thing that goes along with love, understand-ing and guidance, and that thing is adaptability. He said being able to adapt to the guidance from a person is the
best way to thank a person.“When someone gives you love, un-
derstanding, love and guidance, you have to show them your gratitude by adapting,” he said.

FRIDAY, OCT. 4, 2013 The DAIlY eAsTeRn news | SPORTS 7men’s soccer | preview
By michael spencerstaff Reporter@tmskeeper
Western Illinois dominated Drake on the stat sheet in the second half of their midweek matchup, but the Leathernecks were unable to find the back of the net and lost to the Bulldogs 1-0.
That has been an on-going prob-lem for Western in 2013, who will host the Panthers at 1 p.m Saturday in Macomb.
The defending Summit League champions have averaged less than one goal per match this season, scor-
ing only seven times in nine games. The Leathernecks have been shut
out three times.In order to exploit that, Eastern
head coach Adam Howarth said it will be important that his team seize the initiative in Saturday’s match.
“We have got to go at them,” Howarth said. “We have got to make sure that we put pressure on them.”
In contrast, the Eastern men’s soccer team (0-7-2) has never been shutout this season but it cannot seem to keep the ball out of its own net.
Western (1-8) lost its first match
of Summit League play last week-end, in what was the team’s sixth straight loss in a stretch dating back to Sept. 1.
The loss at home to Drake made it seven matches without a win or a draw.
Head coach Eric Johnson said in a press conference after the match that his team is really young this season, but the he still expects it to not only play well but to produce results.
“We created some great chanc-es,” Johnson said. “We’re young, and the young guys are playing pret-ty good, but playing pretty good
doesn’t win you games - you have to make big plays and that’s the next step for this team.”
Eastern will enter Saturday’s match searching for its first win on the road in Macomb.
“We are in for a tough battle,” Howarth said. “Winning games in Macomb is not easy.”
Sophomore Garrett Creasor start-ed against IUPUI last weekend but was out of practice Thursday.
Creasor is expected to return to action before Saturday and then the coaching staff will evaluate the performance from each goalkeeper throughout the week.
Creasor only let up one goal last weekend, the lowest total from an Eastern goalkeeper this season.
Several Eastern players did not see the field in practice Thursday, but Howarth said he does not ex-pect anyone to miss out on the match with Western.
However, Howarth said sopho-more midfielder Nick Smith suf-fered a concussion in the game against IUPUI last weekend and is still not fully recovered.

Eastern takes on Western in Macomb
By dan hildebrandtstaff Reporter@Den_sports
The Eastern golf teams will return to the course Sunday as both the men and women will compete in the But-ler Fall Invitational.
The tournament will be from Sunday to Tuesday at the Highland Country Club in Indianapolis.
Having been out of action since the Southern Illinois-Edwardsville In-
vitational Sept. 22-24 where it fin-ished eighth out of 10 teams, the women’s team has had some extra time to work on its game.
The Panthers have been working hard on their areas of weakness. One major area the team has shown the need for improvement for has been playing around and on the greens.
“As a team we have worked a lot on short game,” junior Tiffany Wolf said. “More specifically, chipping.”
Wolf thinks the Panthers have got-
ten better since the Edwardsville tour-nament and they can expect to have more success at Highland Country Club.
“I think that the team is improving a lot and we can perform much better than the last tournament,” she said. “If we can keep the ball straight and really concentrate around and on the greens, I think we should play very well at this course.”
As for the men’s team, it is com-ing off a 10th place finish at the De-
Paul Invitational and will also get the chance to compete at Butler.
Big numbers have been a problem for the men’s team in the past, sopho-more Austin Sproles said.
And he knows that keeping them off the scorecard will be essential to the team’s success.
“It’s very important to keep the big numbers off the scorecards and to ex-ecute around the greens,” Sproles said.
Sproles said he was disappointed with the team’s overall performance
at DePaul, but he thinks this tourna-ment could have better things in store for the Panthers.
“I’m expecting a much better per-formance than last week,” Sproles said.
Both teams will tee off at Highland Country Club on Sunday with a tee-time is ill yet to be determined.

The Eastern volleyball team, which stands at 8-8 overall and 2-1 in the Ohio Valley Conference, is not over-looking any opponents this season, and that includes east division foe Tennessee State.
The Tigers have the third worst overall record among OVC teams and are 1-2 through three conference games.
“Every match in the OVC is tough match,” Eastern coach Kate Price said. “Any given night, anyone can beat anyone.”
The Panthers will host the Tigers at 7 p.m. Friday in Lantz Arena in their second home match of the season, af-ter 15 straight on the road.
Eastern is coming off of a four-set
win at home against Southern Illi-nois-Edwardsville (25-18, 27-25, 23-25, 25-20) on Tuesday.
But Price said she saw several as-pects on which the Panthers need to improve on by Friday’s match.
“I think we need to be a little bit better in transition,” she said. “We need to be more efficient blocking. Our middles need to get going. We had a successful weekend with our middles, but didn’t see that (Tues-day).”
A large reason why Eastern will not overlook Tennessee State is because the Tigers are coming off a five-set victory against defending champion Belmont Tuesday night (25-22, 25-17, 20-25, 22-25, 15-13).
Belmont was picked to finish No.1 in the OVC preseason polls this year, and is the same team that ousted Eastern from the OVC tournament in first round last season.
The Tigers took the first two sets at home against the Bruins, before al-lowing them to tie the match at two. Tennessee State eventually took the fifth set, halting the Belmont come-back.
But the upset win still does not hide the fact that this match will fea-ture the OVC’s top team in hitting percentage in Eastern (.224) against the OVC’s second worst team in op-ponent hitting percentage in Tennes-see State (.232).
Red-shirt senior middle hitter Stephanie Arnold leads the Panthers with a .351 hitting percentage this season — second best in the OVC. Arnold is also second in the confer-ence in blocks per set with 1.03.
Sophomore outside hitter Chel-sea Lee leads the Panther attack with 3.43 kills per set. Lee is second in the OVC to only Tigers’ outside hitter Naomi Wells who averages 3.72 kills
per set.Wells, however, is hitting just .130
on the season, while the Tigers .171 hitting percentage in ninth in the OVC.
The Panthers lead the OVC in kills per set as a team with 13.46.
The OVC’s top two setters will also play Friday in Eastern’s sopho-more Marah Bradbury and Tennessee State’s senior Erika Moss.
Bradbury leads the conference in assists per set with 10.59, as she con-tinues to be the lone player in double-figures. She leads Eastern OVC-best 12.31 assists per set.
Moss is second in the OVC with 9.91 assists per set. The Tigers are fifth in the OVC with 11.54 assists per set as a team.

Panthers back in action after bye weekbob reynoldsStaff Reporter@DEN_Sports
Coming off a 0-4 first-half of the season, the Eastern rugby team will be facing the Davenport University Panthers in Grand Rapids, Mich., on Saturday.
This will be the first time Eastern will be facing Davenport and Senior Shelby Pilch said this is a must-win game.
“It’s the midpoint of our sea-son and it is a perfect time to turn things around,” Pilch said. “We have no other choice than to come away with a win.”
In its inaugural season, Daven-port has won its first three games and outscored opponents 199-5.
Pilch said the team’s off week could not have come at a better time.
“It has allowed us to heal phys-ically and mentally lock into our game plan for this weekend,” she said. “We have to be able to work on and perfect our strengths and weaknesses. There are no excus-es why we shouldn’t go out there and win this weekend. Coach has prepared us well. Things are really starting to click.”
Eastern is facing a losing season for the first time since Frank Gra-ziano has been the coach of the team.
Graziano said his team does not have to change the style of play in order to win on Saturday, but sim-ply the players have to execute it.
“That is where the breakdown is,” Graziano said. “Whether it is a lack of confidence on gameday, I think that is part of it. We are still struggling. We are a good practice team. We just haven’t made the transition yet.”
With the exception of Ellen Wil-son and Kim Youhas, who are play-ing the lock position, everyone on the team is either new or playing a new position.
Graziano said being nervous is part of the reason the players are having a lack of confidence on game day.
“It is going to take some inter-nal fortitude on their part to look at themselves and say ‘I can do this,’ Graziano said. “Even though yell-ing it on the sideline, it still has to
come from within. I am certainly their biggest fan and their biggest cheerleader. Until they actually do it and prove it to themselves in the middle of the game, it still becomes part of an unknown.”
Pilch said the team is very confi-dent heading into Saturday’s game.
“We feel much more prepared to cross that ‘bridge’ we have yet to cross as a team,” she said. “We have to take what we learned and execut-ed these past few weeks and put it on the playing field, where it mat-ters most. We have to improve our tackling. We will win if we play de-fense.”

Team hits road for weekendby Dominic renzettiManaging Editor@domrenzetti
After a weekend where Southern Illinois-Edwardsville swept the East-ern hockey club, the Panthers (1-3) will hit the road to take on Missouri (0-4) on Friday and Saturday in Jef-ferson City, Mo.
Despite the slow start in 2013 for the Tigers, Missouri was one of the top teams in the league last season, losing 2-1 in the MACHA champi-onship to Southern Illinois-Edwards-ville.
This season, the Tigers opened with a pair of losses to Illinois State 7-2 and 7-1, following with another pair of losses to Northern Illinois, 7-1 and 9-6.
Senior Eastern goalie Andrew Teske, who was ejected in Friday’s game against the Cougars, said on the team’s website that with both teams on losing streaks, everybody will be looking for something to prove.
“Both of these teams have some-thing to prove,” he said. “We know they have struggled early, but so have we. Both of us are going to be com-ing into this weekend looking for two wins.”
Senior Chris Gallagher said after last weekend’s games that he knows Eastern can get better after its two losses.
“We are only going to get better from this,” Gallagher said. “We have a good idea what we need to work on in practice this week to come home with two wins against Mizzou this weekend.”
The team will have some help re-turning this weekend, as senior Zach Yurchak and Conner Cox will both be in the lineup, according to the team’s website.
Yurchak and Cox, who were both key contributors to the team last sea-son, had taken time off to focus on academics.
Yurchak and Cox will likely be fill-ing in on defense for the Panthers, adding depth to the Eastern lineup.
“We haven’t really ever played de-fense, but if it is what the boys need for us to do, we will do it,” Cox said.
The Panthers will also get back se-nior captain Andrew Maronich, who suffered a mild concussion in the first game against Southern Illinois-Ed-wardsville. Maronich has been cleared to play against Missouri.
The Panthers gave up a season-high 12 goals last weekend against Ed-wardsville.
After the losses against the Cou-gars, Gallagher said there were a few areas the team needed to improve on in order to be successful.
“We need to stay out of the box and take more shots,” he said.
Eastern and Missouri will square off at 7:30 p.m. Saturday and 11:30 a.m. Sunday at the Washington Park Ice Arena in Jefferson City, Mo.
The game will be streamed through the team’s Ustream account, accessi-ble through the team’s website,
www.eiuhockey.org.

The Daily Eastern News' weekly arts and entertainment section
Overwhelmed with his stressful marriage, Charlie Baker just wanted to get away to some place quiet where no one would bother him.
Now, thanks to his friend’s clever ploy, Charlie has to listen to the life story of every other guest in their “get-away” location; he even gets caught up in the business of some Ku Klux Klan members.
This ironic situation ignites conflict in Larry Shue’s 1980 comedic play “The Foreigner,” which the Charles-ton Community Theatre will perform at 7:30 p.m. Fri-day and Saturday and at 2 p.m. Sunday in the Tarble Arts Center.
In the play, main character Charlie follows Sargent “Froggy” LeSueur from England to a rural fishing lodge in Georgia, where Froggy tells the lodge owner that Charlie cannot speak English.
Froggy, hoping he would deter people from speaking to Charlie, ends up making his friend a magnet for peo-ple and their problems instead.
Richard Jones, a communication studies professor and the director of the play, said this scenario incites much of the humor of Shue’s play.
He said Charlie winds up having to create a back-sto-ry and his own nonsensical language on the spot when people start interacting with him.
“As an audience member, you feel good that it’s not you in that situation, so you can kind of laugh at some-one else who’s in that situation,” Jones said.
Although Charlie’s situation is funny, there are also more serious themes in the story as it unfolds.
Some of the locals in the Georgia town are KKK members who are upset by the presence of the “foreign-er.”
Jacob Norris, the actor who plays lead KKK member Owen Musser, said his character embodies the stereotype of a redneck.
“You should despise me,” Norris said. “At first you think I’m just your average, dumb redneck, but you will hate me as the play goes on.”
Jones said an overarching theme for the play is how people deal with changes in their lives, including the KKK members.
“We have the people who are a part of the Klan who are going through this change because the world is be-coming more multicultural,” he said. “People are more accepting of difference, and so they see their world is changing.”
Charlie deals with the changes in his own life at the same time, Jones said.
“Charlie sees his world is changing because he doesn’t find any meaning in what he does,” he said. “He’s had the same job for 17 years, and he’s married to this wom-an who doesn’t love him back.”

America has long had a fasci-nation with the mafia, and it will continue on with the latest movie to showcase that lifestyle, the dark comedy “The Family.”
“The Family” focuses on, of course, a family that is forced to en-ter into the Witness Protection Pro-gram and move to a small town in France, which could not be any more different from their native Brooklyn.
The family expectedly has a tough time fitting in, but that is the least of their concerns once their en-emies find out where they are, and they have to fight for their lives.
Robert De Niro plays Giovanni Manzoni (alias Fred Blake), a mob-ster who ratted out some of his old mafia cronies, forcing his family to relocate.
The rest of the family includes wife Maggie (Michelle Pfeiffer), daughter Belle (Dianna Agron) and son Warren (John D’Leo).
Tommy Lee Jones plays the agent who is looking out for them.
The movie, while not as bloody as a traditional mob movie, definite-ly has more violence than usually seen in a comedy.
“The Family” is an ensem-ble piece, but the couple’s children probably did not need as much time devoted to them.
Their stories simply were not as interesting as their parents', and the only reason they seemed to have as much time devoted to them was to fully present “the family.”
De Niro and Pfeiffer are the main draws after all, so it only makes sense to focus on them most of the time.
At nearly two hours long, the movie is already a bit long for a comedy, and some of the scenes fo-cusing on the teens are the obvi-ous ones that would not have been missed if cut.
They do become more interest-ing toward the end when they each play a pivotal role in protecting themselves and their parents.
The movie can be a bit erratic, jumping back and forth between co-medic and dramatic moments, but make no mistake, it is definitely a comedy more than anything else.
Then there’s the fact that all of these French people are convenient-ly able to speak English.
This trend has come to be ex-pected when dealing with a mov-ie aimed primarily at American au-diences.
Many people do not want to read subtitles, and it would also have been unrealistic for the entire fami-ly to be able to speak fluent French.
Fans of mob movies will likely
enjoy the film. Other movies, such as De Niro’s
own mob spoof “Analyze This,” have the style “The Family” most close-ly follows, but the latter contains a bit more drama and tense moments throughout.
In recent years, parodies of ma-fia films have become more popular than those of a more dramatic na-ture.
In one of the highlights from the film, Giovanni is invited to a film screening and is asked to analyze the movie being shown.
The film ends up being 1990’s mafia classic “Goodfellas” starring none other than Robert De Niro himself.
The audience is able to enjoy the in-joke, and memories come flooding back when they hear the opening scene of the classic, com-plete with Tony Bennett’s “Rags to Riches.”
De Niro and Pfeiffer are definite-ly the best things about “The Fam-ily.” Especially Pfeiffer who does a good job at portraying a woman who both misses and hates her old life, but overall just wants a sense of normalcy to return to her family.
While “The Family” can be a bit inconsistent at times, and despite numerous filler scenes, the good outweighs the bad enough, main-ly when it comes to the performanc-es, to make this a worthwhile mov-ie to see.

Derby Soul rocks cellos, mixed influencesDerby Soul, a five-man band based
out of Chicago, will be bringing a clas-sic rock and blues-inspired sound at 9 p.m. Friday to The Top of the Roc.
Sean Walker, guitarist and vocal-ist in Derby Soul, is an Eastern alumni and previously booked shows for the Top of the Roc before graduating and moving to Chicago.
Guitarist Chris Hastings and bass-ist Tim Crane are alumni as well.
Walker said Derby Soul’s sound strives to be more classic rock and less indie-pop.
“We are definitely driven by an old-school rock ‘n’ roll sound that I think isn’t as present as it used to be in modern music,” Walker said. “We are not into the indie-pop scene like a lot of bands are these days, like Imagine Dragons. We are taking it back to a more rock, blues enforced sound, but still bring in pop.”
Derby Soul is most inspired by Led Zeppelin and Tom Waits, as well as Dave Grohl and blues artists like Muddy Waters.
Walker said the band incorporates
powerful vocal harmonies with a gui-tar-driven sound.
They occasionally include keys and cello into their blues, pop and rock songs too.
When Walker and band member Geoff Kartes began to write songs to-gether, Walker eventually found out that Kartes played cello.
He said Kartes wrote a cello med-ley to his song “Sex With Strangers,” and it ended up recreating the entire song.
Kartes has played cello along with guitar, keys and vocals in the band ever since.
Walker said he experiments with different musical elements to get in-spired to write songs. He said he shies away from using standard pow-er chords and instead plays different variations of chords. He said he is in-spired by different types of music and songs.
“Growing up, I was very influ-enced by the punk scene and was very into the hard rock scene,” Walker said. “As I moved into college, I start-ed opening myself up into more blues and jazz and Motown.”
The band members currently prac-
tice for three hours every week, and they are writing and tweaking songs to prepare to record their first EP, Walker said. He said their goal with their self-produced album is to not completely replicate their live show in the record-ing studio, but to have different ele-ments in each.
By Liz Purcell Verge Reporter
Derby Soul has been a band for over a year, and they most often play in Wicker Park, a neighborhood northwest of the Loop in Chicago.
Walker said the Chicago band scene is different than other band scenes he has experienced.
“We are still relatively new, so
what I have found is that this band is less of a party-scene band,” Walker said. “While people still get complete-ly canned, they tend to be less in our face about it.”

Matt Mattingly, the actor who plays Charlie, said his character is “despondent and downtrodden” in the beginning because his wife is ill and has been cheating on him.
“He wonders what it’s like to have a personality,” he said.
Mattingly said Charlie goes through a transformation by the end of the play.
As Charlie unknowingly helps the others find meaning, he de-velops a personality, and at times, more than one personality, Mat-tingly said.
Jones said the other guests at the lodge provide comedic relief from the serious conflicts of the story, such as Ellard Simms, one of the guest’s younger brothers.
He said Ellard, a more “dim-wit-ted” character, attempts to teach Charlie English.
“Everyone’s always written him off because he’s not very smart or not very quick, but he starts teach-ing Charlie English, even though Charlie already knows English, which is also funny, and so his life is changing because now people are starting to take him seriously,” Jones said.
Jordan Cornwell, the actor who plays Ellard, said his character gains confidence through his interactions with Charlie.
“He comes off as a hopeless id-iot, but we also see a glimmer of hope for him,” he said.
Comedy, from page 1
Cathy Sheagren, the actress who plays lodge owner Betty Meeks, said her character gains confi-dence as well through Charlie’s actions.
“There’s the theme of how, when you don’t even know it, kind-ness changes people’s lives,” she said. “Whether that’s unintention-al kindness or intentional kindness, you can’t underestimate how im-portant that is.”
Jones said at the end of the play, there is a tense confrontation be-tween the “good folks” and “bad folks” in town.
“It is a comedy for sure, but

Drake, the 26-year-old Toron-to native, delivers strongly with the production of his junior al-bum, “Nothing Was the Same,” and this already classic album can be described as nothing less than a “three-peat.”
In the beginning, Drake re-ceived criticism for being a hip-hop artist because of his role as Jimmy in the popular show on TeenNick, “Degrassi.” Critics were skeptical and didn’t take him seri-ously.
Despite selling 675,000 plus copies of freshman album “Thank Me Later,” the public continued to underestimate the young artist.
It wasn’t until after Drake re-leased the Grammy Award win-ning album “Take Care” that the naysayers began to recognize and appreciate the substance delivered by the multi-talented artist.
Throughout “Nothing Was the Same,” listeners get a powerful sense of Drake’s cockiness, just as we heard in his No. 1 hit “Head-lines,” where he says, “I think I’m too strung out on compliments, overdosed on confidence.”
Drake opens this soundtrack to his life with “Tuscan Leath-er,” where he switches his flow to a more rugged sound to ac-cent the heavy bass and a sam-ple from “I Have Nothing” by
Whitney Houston. Drake taunts his competition
with this opener just as he did with “Over My Dead Body,” the intro from “Take Care.”
With lines like “Bench players talking like starters; I hate it,” and “I’m tired of hearing ‘bout who you checking for now. Just give it time; we’ll see who still around a decade from now,” Drake makes it clear that he and the quality of his music are here to stay.
Drake focuses more on rapping on this album versus singing.
He also delivered two love songs to appeal to his female lis-teners, “Hold On, We’re Going Home” and “From Time,” where he teams up with Jhene Aiko.
Aiko’s melodic, soft vocals that go hand-in-hand with the soft pi-ano keys outshine the rap lyr-ics from Drake, but they create a love song that can easily be called a ballad.
A feature that hip-hop fans would be fond of is the appear-
ance of Jay Z on “Pound Cake.”Despite the lyrical capacity
from Jay Z that fans are used to, Drake manages to hold his own weight against the hip-hop champ with his original flow and sub-stance.
In addition to Drake taking a new approach by focusing more on rapping on this album, he also experiments with an old tech-nique—mixing tracks.
The majority of the songs on “Nothing Was the Same” take a shift and switch the tempo of the beat, adding a bass drum and a mix-up of snares.
If you haven’t thought so be-fore, after the presentation of this album it is clear that Grammy Award winner Aubrey Drake Gra-ham is a versatile, quality artist who will go down in hip-hop his-tory.
Drake’s top track “Started from the Bottom” is the best song to ex-plain his progression as a singer, rapper, artist and innovator.
From “Thank Me Later” to “Take Care,” Drake has taken all of his talents and upgraded them to inform his fans and his critics that nothing will be the same.

there is also some tender elements in terms of the loving and liking that’s going on between the charac-ters, and there’s also some kind of scary elements too,” he said.
In addition to the dates this weekend, The Charleston Com-munity Theatre will also perform the play at 7:30 p.m. on Oct. 10th, 11th and 12th in the Tarble Arts Center. Tickets for the play are $10 for adults, $8 for seniors and $5 for students.

Staring at the same assortment of plastic fruit and oddly shaped objects for hours might get tedious for some, but for students taking introductory painting, this is only the beginning.
After classes and on weekends while some students are catch-ing up on reading, socializing and sleeping, many art students are spending hour after hour trying to perfect the shading of an apple, a bottle or a curtain.
Kelly Kieltyka, a sophomore art education major, said she probably spends a total of 50 hours working on one painting for class.
“I’m one of those dedicated stu-dents, so my last large painting ses-sion was 11 hours straight,” she said.
She said sometimes she comes into the painting room after her class ends at 9 a.m. on Friday and will stay until 8:30 p.m. when she has to leave for work.
“I usually don’t have any free time. I just spend time on my art, but I do enjoy my art,” she said. “And I’m really determined to get better, and if I can get better then it will be worth all the time I spent.”
The students all have to paint a collection of plastic fruit and glass bottles sitting over a silky curtain.
At first, they had to paint still lives of objects in black and gray, mastering the texture and shading of each different material.
Painting the same objects in col-or, Kieltyka said, requires a whole new level of skill.
“You don’t even realize how complicated a single object is un-til you try to paint it in color,” she said. “For example, like that red ap-ple, it’s not just red; it’s red and or-ange and yellow. The highlight on there I found out was not a yel-low-red, it’s actually brown-yel-lowish.”
One technique Kieltyka used,
particularly when she was paint-ing in black and gray, was looking through a pair of 3-D glasses with the blue lens removed.
She said staring through the red lens neutralizes colors so it is easi-er to tell how dark or light objects are.
“Sometimes you think a cor-ner could be really dark and it’s not at all or vice versa, and red sort of neutralizes color so that when you look through it, everything is a grayish color already,” she said. “So it’s easier to see those differences in shadows and highlights.”
Although painting in color for the first time is difficult, Kieltyka said she looks forward to improving her skills and her speed.
She said her problem is not mix-ing the colors, but giving the col-ored objects volume.
“Making them round in color is so much harder because you’re us-ing 20 different shades of maybe green just to get one side of an ap-ple, and every color has a different color in it,” she said.
She said painting the different objects together helps teach the stu-dents about differences in tex-tures.
Painting a cloth is complete-ly different from painting an ap-ple with strong highlights or a glass bottle with even stronger high-lights, she said.
“That’s another part of painting, trying to make an object look like it

actually is made out of what it is,” Kieltyka said.
Kieltyka said putting in all those hours of painting has also taught her to stop second-guessing her col-or choices because her professor emphasizes patience.
“A big thing that he always sug-gests is that if it doesn’t look like crap 50 percent of the way through, you’re not doing it right,” she said.
She said without a professor to push her through the steps, she probably could never excel past a certain level.
“That’s the frustrating part, when you’re not feeling like you’re seeing any progress,” she said. “I spent six hours of this class on one apple and I still didn’t like it at all,
but I came in one day and added a few things and I was like, ‘Wow, it’s pretty OK.’”
Kieltyka said one reason she wanted to take a painting class was because she wants to be an art teacher, so she would have to mas-ter the discipline to teach it effec-tively.
“I like to dabble in a little bit of everything,” she said. “If I seriously take up painting though, I’ll proba-bly do figures because I like people. I really want to reach a level that I’m proud of.”
