Naive Art•While walking through the woods many of us will kick aside bits of twigs , broken tree limbs and tangled roots. Miles Carpenter collects these discarded scraps of nature to produce hand carvings of animals either real life---pigs, camels, pelicans--or figments of his imagination-three-legged anteaters, "The Thinker."

Recently celebrating his ninetieth birthday and his sixty-fifth anniversary in the ice and

Phyllis Kind admires the work of S. L. Jones and The Rev. Howard Finster .

vegetable business, Carpenter, a self-taught sculptor, gave a lecture and a demonstration of his work at this year's Tucker-Boatwright Festival of the Arts at the University of Richmond during April.

Others participating in the festival which focused on ' 'The Many Aspects of Contemporary Folk Art '' included Jeffery Camp of the American Folk Art Company in Tappahannock ; Philip Hanson, a Chicago painter who teaches part time at The School of the Art Institute; and Phyllis Kind who handles work for a number of Chicago artists and various selftaught artists in her galleries in New York and Chicago.

Carpenter 's handcrafted wood carvings may be as minute as an ant or as tall as an 8foot " Negro Soda Pop Drinker " carrying a carton of Coca-Cola or as long as a 6-foot venomous serpent The ears of the animals may be made from inner tubes , the teeth from toothpicks, the tails from electric wire and the whiskers from an old brush.

"I always like to make things look ugly," said Carpenter. '' The uglier my animals are

the more people will look at them .' ' Camp who has traveled widely in the United States seeking " undiscovered" selftaught painters and sculptors said: " Shattering events in their lives have caused many of the artists represented in my gallery to begin creating. They don't call themselves artists. They may even deny being folk artists. '' Many of the artists represented at the festival are considered senior citizens .

For example , The Rev. Howard Finster, who is in his sixties , began painting only two years ago . He delivered sermons on the radio for 1 7 years , had his own congregation and was also a roving minister. When his congregation became disenchanted with his idea of creating a paradise, he left the church to begin creating. Now in a small town in Northwest Georgia you can visit Finster and walk through his " paradise ," along a path of ceramic tiles , glass , mirrors and marble.

Other self-taught artists featured during the festival include Lee Godies from Chicago who paints mainly images of women ; S. L. Jones from West Virginia , whose hand carvings of people include Abraham Lincoln, June Carter , and Muhammad Ali and his wife ; and Joseph Yoakum from Chicago who " has an amazing sense of rhythmic shapes and energies ," according to Hanson , " in his landscapes of sea and mountains. " Evelyn Terry.

Pat on the Back• Knowledge of the subject , enthusiasm for the subject and his ability to relate the subject to real life situations are a few of the reasons William R. Marshall Jr . won the Outstanding Lecturer Award of University College of the University of Richmond . Based on student vote , the award is given annually .

Following in the footsteps of his colleague , Julian Savage who won UC's first lecturer award in 1 9 77, Marshall has taught business law in the evening school of the college for the past six years Marshall is a partner in the law firm of Thompson , Savage , Smithers and Marshall in Richmond.

Recognizing his contribution to education , a plague was presented to Marshall at the University College Night banquet in February . Afterwards the faculty , client groups and friends of the community who attended the banquet were President Heilman 's guests at a Spider basketball"game. Marshall's name was announced over the public broadcasting system during halftime, saluting him as the winner of the 1979 Outstanding Lecturer Award . ET.

Smithers' Bailiwick•Formerly termed by his students as " the student professor ," J. Westwood Smithers retired in May after 42 years as a member of the faculty of the University of Richmond Law School.

Smithers surprises most people when he tells them he received his law degree three years before earning his undergraduate degree at UR. "When I entered law school , only two years of undergraduate study were required ,'' says Smithers. He remarks that he studied as little as possible just to meet the two year requirement. After entering law school , he excelled in his studies and was recommended to graduate with Latin honors.

Upon receiving his law degree , Smithers wanted to do graduate research at Harvard University. To do this , he had to have an undergraduate degree . Therefore he taught full time in the law school and was also a full-time student in Richmond College.

At Harvard.. Smithers studied under Joseph H. Beale, the unquestioned authority in the area of conflicts of laws, and Roscoe Pound, past dean of Harvard Law School for 20 years . " Pound , was one of the few authentic geniuses that I know of, " says Smithers.

To Smithers the course he taught dealing with the conflicts of laws is the "apex of the curriculum." But he says, " Most of my past students remember me for teaching criminal law, a first year course for students to sharpen their minds on .' ' Smithers will not only be remembered by students who attended his classes at UR, but he will also be remembered by students from 29 law schools throughout the United States who have passed the bar with is assistance .

Twice a year Smithers teaches the Bar Review course, an intensive 1 2-day review course.

To show appreciation for his years of dedication to the profession of law, the forthcoming fall issue of the University of Richmond Law Reviewwill be dedicated to Smithers, according to John Epps, editor and chief. ET.

STOP!•There has been a counseling "load up' in the college student centers across the nation, according to Dr. Debora Phillips, professor of psychiatry at Temple University and sex therapist at Princeton. Dr. Phillips was guest speaker for the Women's Lifestyles Conference on March 21 .

Phillips directed her lecture toward "Students in the Seventies ,'' and '' How to Fall Out of Love ,' ' also the title of her new book.

"There has been an introspection , or turning inward, of students today," Dr. Phillips said. She contributes this to the lack of external pressures such as the Vietnam War in the 1960's.

In her lecture "How to Fall Out of Love," Dr. Phillips laid out a desensitization process to lessen the pain of losing a loved one . This process contains four steps including a shout "stop" and then think of something else technique; making use of the absurd; licking jealousy; and working to build a positive self-image .

According to Dr. Phillips there has always been a need for such a revolutionary program. " Until now , falling out of love was an isolated experience and very lonely; there were no parties given for the occasion.''

She stressed that in the past, the suffering of falling out of love was glorified because no one knew how to deal with it, but that through this process, the patient would gain relief rather than just understanding .

Dr. Phillips also pointed out that relationships cannot live on love alone . "It is important to be good friends as well as lovers," she said.

She added that the lack of friendship in a marriage is the greatest problem couples face.

The Lifestyles Committee began in 19 7 5 as a joint effort between the Westhampton College Government and the Dean's Office to address the issues of women in professional careers playing dual roles as housewives and career women. Cathy Villanis .

Dr. Debora Phillips discusses the problems students face today.

Most Valuable•Jeff Nixon, Hillary Tuwei and Ingrid Brustad received All-America awards, and seniors Dave Thomas and Roseann Sheridan received the President's Citation for the highest academic averages as the University of Richmond honored its lettermen and most valuable players at its all-sports banquet.

Nixon, a four-year free safety for the Richmond football team, was selected to five AllAmerica squads this season while ranking fifth in the NCAA in interceptions. Tuwei placed second in the NCAA indoor 3-mile this winter,

Hillary Tuwei running like never before.

while Brustad earned honors in the 200-meter butterfly at the AIAW swimming championships.

Thomas, who was also named this year's Most Valuable Player in baseball, holds a 3.94 in business administration and enters the Emory University School of Law in September.

He has a career batting average of about .340 and recently broke the university's record of 44 for most hits during the regular season.

Sheridan, who has a 3.74 in theatre arts, led the archery team to a second place finish in the state championships. Paul Kennedy.

Mavromata• The world premiere of Richard Becker's eclectic piano composition, Mavromata--meaning "dark eyed woman" in Greek-took place in April at the Festival of American Music at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C . Claudia Stevens Becker, wife of the composer, gave the recital in the East Garden Court of the Gallery. ''The Bach chorale setting, Aus tiefer Noth ich schrei zu dir, permeates the entire fabric of the work,'' says Becker, instructor of music at UR. For Becker, this was the second straight

year in which his music has been presented at the festival. He was able to complete the arrangement through a grant from the Committee on Faculty Research.

Influenced by internationally known composer Robert Sessions, Becker was inspired to write tne music for his wife who has been a champion of Session's music for years. For this reason the 17.5 minute, five-movement piano composition was dedicated to Sessions.

Becker, along with Alan Stein, assistant professor of music and director of the University Orchestra at UR, is writing a short choral work for the University Choir for UR's 1 50th anniversary. ET. Greetings•Dr. D. Robert Moxley of Atlanta, Ga., has assumed the office of executive assistant to the president of the University of Richmond, Dr. E. Bruce Heilman, as of May 1 upon the retirement of Dr. C. J. Gray.

The appointment of Moxley, was announced at the March 9 meeting of the University's Board of Trustees. Since 1975 he has been assistant to the director of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools in Atlanta, and before that served as assistant to the executive vice president of Florida Junior College at Jacksonville, and as director of institutional studies at Old Dominion University in Norfolk. His work has included a variety of teaching and administrative experiences. ''Dr . Moxley has the academic background and the planning, research and editorial skills necessary to fill admirably the demands of this position," says President Heilman.

Moxley holds a BA degree in history from Harvard University and MA and PhD degrees in educational administration from the University of Alabama. Alison Griffin .

ToaFare-Thee-Wel

by Evelyn Terry

Recognized as the ''Voice of the University of Richmond ' '-and as "Bus " by his friendsDean C. J. Gray has generously ministered to the demands of the university since he first walked onto the campus as a student in February 1930 .

"I 've joined a lot of folks in trying to make the university look good by doing the best we can.

Nothing is more satisfying than having others look upon the university as a model," said Dean Gray , who retired on May 31 .

Hundreds of people throughout Virginia and surrounding states have grown to know the Dean's voice either through his 30 years as UR's public address announcer or through his 1 8 years as moderator of the University of Richmond Radio Scholarship Quiz , a 1 3-weeks series broadcast for 21 years over a network of radio stations in Virginia until 1972. Through the program 27 university scholarships were awarded each year to Virginia's most outstanding high school students.

When columnist Guy Friddell introduced Dean Gray as an honoree at the Distinguished Alumni Awards Ceremony in November 1978, Friddell commented: "He has announced pregame and half-time ceremonies and has occasionally done the very commentary at football, basketball, track , baseball, May Day, the Junior Dance.

Anything that happens at the university isn't complete without his being there, his voice. He always does it professionally , with the utmost taste and efficiency . . .. " Elaborating on the Dean's influence through the Radio Scholarship Quiz, Friddell said: "I don 't think that any educational program in the history of communications has gone on for so long so successfully . . . . He travelled all over this state--he was our emissary. In a way that perhaps no other activity has done , he introduced the university to the Commonwealth of Virginia . ... And from those excellent programs and the scholarships that were awarded for more than two decades, we gained some wonderful students. He helped change the composition in great degree of this student body and made it for the better, as well as presenting our best foot forward .... " As a student , as a faculty member and as an administrator, Dean Gray has determinedly worked to promote leadership and scholarship.

Elected to Omicron Delta Kappa (ODK) and Phi Beta Kappa while an undergraduate at UR, Dean Gray has been a spokesman for these organizations through the years.

By reason of Dean Gray's extensive local and national service to Phi Beta Kappa and ODK , his classmates, at the 40th reunion of the class of 1 933, established the Clarence J . Gray Achievement Awards for Excellence in Scholarship

and Leadership at the University of Richmond as their belated class gift to the university.

Regarded as an administrator because of his key posts as Dean of Students from 1946-68, as Dean of Administrative Services, 1968-73, and as Dean of Administration , 1973-79, Dean Gray said, "I don 't want people to forget that I have been and still am a teacher. My first love is people who are interested in learning, but a parallel love is Spanish. I shall never cease promoting all things Hispanic."

Of the many programs Dean Gray helped to establish at the university , he would most like to be remembered for restructuring the Faculty Counselor Program for Freshmen in 1 966 and for creating the Faculty Publication Fund in 1970.

The Grays are a UR family. Dean Gray and his wife, Jane (W'32), met while they were participating in a University Players Production .

Their two children, Frances Gray Mark, PhD (W' 58), and Kenneth S. Gray, MD (R'66), were chemistry majors and members of Phi Beta Kappa.

Summing up his service at the University of Richmond, Dean Gray said , "As student, then colleague, associated with three presidents, I am glad that I have lived long enough to serve-in my own mind at least-as a kind of bridge or transition from one administration to another and then to another. I have viewed close up the great strengths of the university 's leaders, Frederic W. Boatwright, George M. Modlin and E. Bruce Heilman. While there have been memorable moments in the past-the present and the future of the university are especially bright and inspiring."

He will continue to be available as a special consultant to the president. From quarters in Boatwright Library, the Dean will keep active in university affairs as he gathers data and conducts interviews for the Oral History Project of the university as part of the 1 50th Anniversary celebration.

I.TR IOOlh Anniversary "erDatts

tellers Memories The "Around The Lake" note about street signs going up reminded me of 33 years ago when Louis D. Rubin Jr., '46, and I were taking a walk across the campus towards Westhampton when a fire engine drove up and the driver yelled, "Where is Thomas Hall?" Despairing of following directions, we were invited to climb aboard and to direct to what turned out to be a very small fire.

The house mother fussed that we were too close to the engine, and we said, "Ma'am we were onit a minute ago." But she didn't believe it.

Jacqueline Wolf, W'46 Teaneck, N.J. P.S. A very nice issue indeed.

Disturbed It's my belief that the university's alumni (to whom the magazine is directed) would have been better served had you decided to include all of the classnotes, perhaps at the expense of the Betty Heilman feature.

As an employee of a daily newspaper, I fully realize the headaches caused by space limitations. However, there's also something called editorial judgement, and I believe you failed to use it.

Brooks Hatch, R'76 Bismarck, N.D. We must try to please all publics and not just a particular public. Although alumni/ae constitute the majority who receive the school's magazine, other constituents include associates of the university, parents, faculty and staff. When deciding the contents of a magazine, we attempt to select a well-balanced variety of topics to meet the interests of all readers and to give them an insight into the university. All classnotes which were overruns from the spring issue of the magazine are presented in this issue. Ed.
