Last chance

Club to see Texas exhibits By Debbie Blossom

Student Writer Students have until Friday to reserve a seat on a bus traveling to Ft. Worth, Texas with the Art Club to visit four art exhibits Nov. 18. The Modern Art Museum is presenting "Helen Frankenthaler Painting Retrospective," organized by the Museum of Modern Art in New York.

"Frankenthaler is the most influential female artist of the 20th century," said Dr. William Hommel, art department chairman. "She is known for her beautiful paintings using layers of thin paint washed over each other." The Amon Carter museum is presenting "Thomas Hart Benton— 55 lithographs." Benton was an early 20th century regionalist which Hommel defined as being an artist from Missouri, who, with other artists

from the midwest, painted murals on public buildings. The Kimball Museum is offering two exhibits: "Style and Expressionism in Modern Chinese Painting-from the Metropolitan Museum of Art" and "Raphael to Canaletto-Master Drawings from Windsor Castle." The cost of the trip is $25. For information call 341-2980, Ext. 5201.

Israeli consul to visit campus Wednesday By Kamal Mazlan Staff Writer Eli Yerushalmi, Israeli consul in Houston, Texas, will talk about Israel and its occupied territories at 10:30 a.m. Nov. 8 in the Liberal Arts Auditorium. Admission is free. Political science professor John George said this is the first time an Israeli consul has been invited to speak at CSU. A graduate of Bar Ilan University, Tel Aviv, Yerushalmi's areas of expertise include U.S.-Israeli relations, Arab-Israeli conflict, Egyptian and Lebanese politics, Jewish history and Judaism.

Yerushalmi served as head of the deputy foreign minister's bureau from 1981-84 within the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs. In 1984-85, Yerushalmi researched Lebanese politics in the Foreign Ministry. Vice-consul since 1985 at the Israeli Consulate General in Alexandria, Egypt, Yerushalmi was appointed, in August 1987 to a similar position with the Israeli Consulate General for the Southwest in Houston. He was promoted to consul in October 1988. "A question-and-answer session will be held after the talk, for CSU students to discuss (topical subjects) and to be exposed to every point of view," said George, who is sponsoring the talk.

Students get 'last chance' By Kamal Mazlan

Staff Writer Central State University President Bill Lillard said an openforum meeting scheduled at 12:30 p.m. Thursday in the University Center Ballroom will "in all probability be the last meeting this fall for students to express their views and ask any questions" on university-related issues. "We're having the open-forum meeting as a result of student interest, as expressed by both their

petition and individual meetings," Lillard said. Lillard said he will preside over the open-forum meeting with Joe Stehr, Student Association president. Vice President for Academic Affairs Dr. Clyde Jacob and his assistants, Dr. Albert Lynd and Terry May, will join them on the platform, Lillard said. The meeting will be cosponsored by the president's office and the SA.

"There won't be a formal agenda at the meeting," Lillard said.

"I will talk with the students on some topics, such as closings of some sections and adjunct faculty cuts this semester, the spring 1990 schedule, the 31 new full-time faculty members, and the 1989-90 CSU budget," Lillard said. Lillard said after the first meeting with individual students Nov. 1, he contacted Stehr about the possibility of holding an openforum meeting. "The Student Association is the official body for CSU students so they would know what's best for Please see FORUM on page 8.
