In this hilarious satire, crisis looms and bad taste rules the day. Will the electric company cut the power on the local theater’s production? Will anyone be able to catch the “Christmas phantom” vandalizing holiday yard displays? And why are sales so brisk at the used weapons store? This town of 22 Scrooges comes to life through the quick-change skills of Greg Currie and Brent Briscoe, who between them play every role, both male and female.These characters are ec centric, spiteful and ultimately unforgettable as they manage to salvage some humanity amid the insanity.

The workers are being flown to Dallas this weekend to meet with campaign coordinator Russ Verney. They’ve already been told to ship their office equipment — including desks and fax and answering ma chines — to the national headquar ters in Dallas, where the equipment will be sold or donated to charity. The closings do not necessarily include all Reform Party offices. Verney said local officials may at tempt to keep those offices open with their own funds. “Ultimately, the Reform Party members have got to assume re sponsibility for their governance, their finances, their futures,” he said. “Whether they will have the ability to continue paying rent is up to them.” Perot, the Texas billionaire who captured 8 percent of the presi dential vote on Electon Day, hasn’t decided yet whether to finance any future attempts to support his fledgling party, Verney said. Many of the 41 workers who will get their final paychecks at the end of the month had worked for Perot’s United We Stand America group before its metamorphosis into the Perot ’96 Campaign. Some have been employed by Perot since 1993. “Their last employment was with a campaign, and campaigns end,” Verney said. The moves by the Perot ’96 campaign are in line with federal election law that requires all cam paigns to consolidate asseiphy. income a prepare for an audit, said Ition in order Election Commission S’ woman Sharon Snyder. “We’re liquidating every® this point and time,” said I bott, a Perot staffer for the st!

Malon Southerland, vice president for student af fairs, said the opening of a new student center is not a consideration. “We won’t be able to build a new student center in the near future, so I thought it would be timely to do a study.” The study will include the potential reassigning of space and a new design.
