Welcome to the March edition of Slap. I was hoping to say ‘Spring is in the air’ but I’ve just seen the weather forecast and it’s far from Spring-like. It really feels like it’s been a long winter of discontent with news of more venue closures almost weekly. The latest to go at the end of February was the Pig and Drum in Worcester which has been prominent on the local music seen for a few years now. Thanks to the efforts of landlady Rachel Cale bands from out of town loved playing there. We don’t yet know the long term fate of the Boar’s Mar 2017 Head in Kidderminster since Sid & Sandra announced they’re moving on in the summer, But I don’t think it’ll be the last to go.

When he is at the University, which isn't often, the president of the Alumni Council bounds up the steps of Crossland Alumni Center and reaches the administrative offices of the Alumni Association by 7 a.m. When he is traveling, which is often, Johnson is "up and cracking early," relating the University's fundraising needs to alumni and friends. He usually finds a receptive audience. 1 "The University has contributed a lot to experiences that have helped me in the business world," said Johnson, district sales manager for Mobil Oil Corporation. "I want to return a small portion of what UMO has done for me." By that standard, Johnson may be a consummate "UMO man." He describes himself as enthusiastic and competitive.

That image, possibly the most evocative and most repeated in the Western, signifies both continuing adventure and ever westward motion as well as a restless lack of final resolution. This thesis examines the ambiguous endings and the conditions leading up to them in two film Westerns of the 1950s, George Steven’s Shane (1953) and John Ford’s The Searchers (1956).

  • The Significance of the Wasteland in American Culture
    Berkeley Undergraduate Journal 160 THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE WASTELAND IN AMERICAN CULTURE By Joshua Peterson n this paper, I examine the sense of restlessness and the resultant apocalyptic fantasy in contem- porary American culture by distilling two film genres—the Hollywood western and the post- apocalyptic—down to their basic structural elements. The post-apocalyptic genre’s aesthetic Iand thematic borrowing from the Hollywood western signifies a cynical critique of the frontier myth. In 1893, Frederick Jackson Turner presented The Significance of the Frontier in American His- tory, his “Frontier Thesis,” which mourns the closure of the frontier and celebrates the American institutions built upon it.1 The frontier only exists insofar as it is available for human exploration and settlement. Though the frontier is long gone, the desire for open space and freedom from social restriction remains prominent in American culture. The post-apocalyptic genre continues Turner’s mourning and indulges the fantasy of free and open space. In essence, it gives the frontier back to viewers by undoing everything that the frontier made possible. The characters in the post- apocalyptic genre then explore the possibilities of rebuilding society and struggle (and often fail) to avoid the mistakes of America’s historical past. In this sense, the wasteland functions as a revision of the frontier myth. This paper explores the post-apocalyptic genre’s view of the frontier myth as a trajectory towards civilization’s collapse. It posits a more cynical view of humanity and, in doing so, aims to expose the feet of clay on which our social order stands.
