When one mentions the University of Miami School of Music, two words come to mind: quality and prestige.
Hornsby, Expose and band members of the Miami Sound Machine. The school even employs world-renowned composer Alfred Reed.
The school’s credentials and achievements attract top high school seniors from as far away as India. Aspiring musicians expect facilities to be equipped with sophisticated sound systems, plenty of practice rooms and a Urge music library.

Joyce poem discovered
UM to publish newly-found Latin prose
By FERNANDO BATTAGLIA
8taff Writer
An unpublished poem by Irish author James Joyce was recently discovered in the archives of Cornell University. The poem will be published by the University of Miami, which has the largest collection of Joyce’s works in the world, sometime in May or June.
The 24-line poem written entirely in Latin will be published in a book entitled James Joyce Literary Supplement.
Joyce is moat renowned for his prose works rather than his poetry. Among his most famous works are The Dubliners, A Portrait of the Artist As a Young Man and Ulysses.
There are indications he wrote the poem shortly after he graduat-
Jniversity College i lin, according to K. Joseph Schork, a University of Massachusetts classics professor who discovered the poem.
“I think this is a schoolboy exercise of a man of great genius,” Schork said.
Some of Joyce’s prose contains passages in Latin, but none of his poetry had been known to have been written in that language.
"It’s his handwriting, not a smudge or a correction on it,” Schork said. "It’s obviously not the rough draft. This was a finished draft that he was proud of.”
"There’s no question [Schork] is on to something," Dr. Zack Bowen, chairman of the English department at UM, said. Bowen was the

the polling area.
In one instance, MORE supporters were spotted by an elections commissioner campaigning next to the Univeraity bookstore magazine racks. On a separate occasion, two commissioners spotted a MORE supporter campaigning within the same campaign zone adjacent to the UC. Four points were assessed for the first violation, seven for the latter.
At various times on March 26 and 27, commissioners found 12 MORE fliers within the 100-foot
at the Memoriaf Classroom Building. Two points per flier were assessed for a total of 24 points.
Ed Vergopia, a MORE supporter who defended the ticket before the commission, said he felt the point assessment was very “steady" throughout. “If they felt yellow shirts were within 100 feet of the poles, they must have been. I wasn’t there to see it all,” Vergopia said.
Two MORE supporters shouting “Vote for MORE” at the Memorial Building coat the ticket seven more points for a total of 42. After being issued a cease and desist order, the two supporters returned to Memorial and continued their slogan 10 minutes after the warning was given.
Other complaints concerning
MORE’s violation of the 100-foot rule and a separate complaint about a MORE supporter handing out MORE and Reflex pamphlets were dismissed because of procedural errors and the absence of the petitioner.
Ten fliers sponsored by the IAN ticket were found within the 100-foot zone at the Memorial Building. Two points were assessed per flier. Five points were assessed for two separate violations of the elections code concerning a flier posted on the UC bulletin hoard for a total of 25 points.

the school, despite its prestige, is falling apart.
Citing politics and a lack of funds as primary deterrents, Univeraity officials say they have been unable to solve the music school’s problems.
A major student complaint is the lack of practice rooms in the Foster Building, which often results in a wait of up to an hour for facilities and equipment.

Greek SAFAC votes reinstated
By BETH JAHREIS
Mam edict
Recent requests for additional representation on the Student Activity Fee Allocation Committee (SAFAC) have been answered with the reinstatement of three greek SAFAC votes, according to Darren Dupriest, Association of Greek Letter Organizations (AGLO) SAFAC representative.
The SAFAC committee ia composed of 11 members, two of which are at-large seats whose purpose ia to represent those campus organizations not represented by the remaining nine members, according to Clayton Randall, SAFAC adviser.
The SAFAC committee determines which organizations have voting rights to elect these two at-large seats.
According to Dupriest, prior to the fall of 1990, greeks had a total of five votes — AGLO, Homecoming, Federation of Black Greeks (FBG), Interfraternity Council (IFC) and Panhellenic Council.
In the fall of 1990, SAFAC took away the FBG, Panhellenic and IFC votes. Seventeen campuswide organizations, including two greek organizations, had voting rights to select the two at-large •eats.
Randall said, at that time, SAFAC members felt
AGLO was representative of all greek organiza-
According to Dupriest, these 17 votes have recently been increased to 37, including the reinstatement of the five previous greek organization votes.
Presidents from the members of these 37 organization* met March 22 to vote for the two at-large members.
According to Randall, nine voting presidents were present. Three nominations were made by the greek voting members, and two students were elected to the at-large seat*.
"I hesitate to label these voting members as ’ Dupriest said. “They are active in other
Organizations who hold the remaining nine permanent seat* on SAFAC have been contacted to appoint their representatives, and as soon as the new Student Government president is elected, screening of the at-large members will begin.
The deadline for organisations to apply for funding was Friday. As soon aa the committee is complete, members will hear presentations by organizations requesting funding. Each organization will have 7-8 minutes for its presentation.

By TRACY KRAMER
Assistant News Editor
Jnt versify of 1 nience store has been named.
Out of 326 entries in the Hurricanes Name the Convenience Store Contest, Force 5 waa selected is the winning name.
A committee made up of members from the Hurricane staff and Student Government chose the name. The entry, which was submitted by Larry Ciepjy, a counseling pychology major working toward a doctorate, was the committee’s second choice.
The first choice, The Foote Locker, waa rejected by members of the UM administration.
Alan Fish, assistant vice president of UM Business Services, who gave final approval for the winning name, said The Foote Locker waa rejected for legal reasons.
"The Foot Locker fa an estab-
lished business.” Fish said. “(The Foote Locker) was too dote.”
“I thought [UM President Edward T. Foote II] would like to have hi* name associated with something originated by students,” Esther Feuer, an SG senator who served on the committee, said. “But he didn't particularly like it.” Ciephr said he selected Force 5 to keep with the hurricane theme. In meteorology, force five is defined aa the wind velocity of a hurricane at its strongest point.
“I really liked the way it sounded and thought it had a good chance,” Ciepty aaid.
