The exhibit features various works bv Vincent Suttles. a 1978 eraduate of USC, who died in August of this year. Suttles, a Spartanburg native, worked in McKissick's exhibit installation department until his death in 1993. Although the exhibition features pictures in various forms of mixed media and a few assorted sculptures, Suttles experimented with several realms of art. Suttles was known not only for painting, drawing and printmaking, but performance art as well. "Vinne was a talented young individual. Personal, complex, spiritual and unpredictable ? these are words that describe Vinne, his work and his life," said Lynn Robertson, director of McKissick Museum. USC profess< KENYA PATTERSON Staff Writer USC professor Ralph White has developed a new "rocking chair battery" that could be a future choice for toys, phones or other items with oddly-shaped battery housings. "Eventually, they will eliminate the need for buying batteries because manufacturers will sell more and more devices that have batteries already built in. The toys won't need batteries," White said. "If s easier to make that small battery into toy housing compartments and into different shapes and containers. Just like the hand-held phones, they will Patrol orders GREENVILLE, S.C. (AP) - The South Carolina Highway Patrol's latest wheels might be just enough to interest some teen-agers in a law enforcement career. The patrol, which had been using souped-up Ford Mustangs, wants to test drive Chevrolet Z-28 Camaros as the latest tool in traffic enforcement. The Z-28 already is a hot-rodder's dream, but the patrol has ordered its cars loaded, with a 5.7 liter V-8 eneine that puts out 275 horsepower, a performance suspension and a speedometer that peaks at 150 mph. Spokesman Lou Fontana said ThursI, OOOflcf \ 2 rom 9-2 and 3-7 Friday, December 2, 1994 honors if member "As an individual, he [Suttles] was veiy unique and had his own sense of the wnr-l/t Hp wna n remllv npnt nprsnn tn apt to know because he was very religious and involved with the Catholic Church and at the same time veiy involved with his art," said Deanna Kerrigan, Curator of Educational Services at McKissick. One of Suttles' hallmarks was how he managed to create works that were highly personal messages to friends, whether it be a poem or a sketch. "He never sold his pieces, he always gave them away. So, instead of going to galleries and museums, we had to track down the friends and people that Vincet knew. I think its neat for the people who own his pieces have this final tribute," said Kerrigan. Located on the Horseshoe McKissick Museum is open from 9 a.m. - 4 p.m. Monday through Friday and from 1-5 p.m. Saturday and Sundays. The exhibition is free to the public. or develops n be combined and stacked up for more power than you would get from the decals." The "rocking chair battery" gets its name from the shuttling action of the lithium ions between the positive and negative electrodes. When the appliance is running, the ions shuttle, or "rock," to one electrode. When it is being i-echarged, they rock back to the other. "One single battery can't meet all of the needs in the future," White said. "Batteries will come already installed in tiic ajj^/naiiv*c. xi 1 vji uci tu i cv^iiai gc the battery, you would recharge the apsouped-up Z-2S day that the patrol has ordered 14 Camaros at $16,956 apiece. The state hopes to get them in April or May for a oneyear test, but there is still some uncertainty, he said. "We just don't know whether they will fill our order. They've been filling orders on a first-come, first-served basis," Fontana said. The patrol has been looking at new cars since it decided last April to phase out the Mustangs, Fontana told The Greenville News. The Mustangs were too crowded af tcx nicy wcic luaucu. wiui puncc cv^uipi?iff j J:i be coof Thornton Studio 1 ^ . toaay to t; GBQ Year In Re portr; At the end of eac! the University Boo senior or graduate t Students who ha\ also purchase GB (i [lie. fh/nfsj Public health s high-tech comf Staff Reports c A new computer center opened Thursday at the School of Public Health, link- s ing students with health care profes- d sionals throughout the world. t "Pail of the excitement for us is that h we are able to offer our students the s most advanced computer technology," Sam Baker, director of the center and ^ a health administration professor, said.

"Cadmium won't be produced in the future because of it's toxication. However, hydride will be its replacement because ifs safe, easy to dispose and is less hazardous for humans," White said.

Priest placed on leave alter allegations CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) ? Roman Catholic Bishop David Thompson said Thursday he placed a Taylors priest on administrative leave after allegations of sexual misconduct with a minor were made against him. The person who made the allegations against the Rev. Paul Seitz requested confidentiality, said Mary Jeffcoat, a spokeswoman for the Diocese of Charleston. Seitz, 67, has been pastor of the Prince of Peace parish since 1985. He was ordained in 1958 and has had assignments in Aiken, Anderson, Greenville, Hilton Head, Myrtle Beach and North Augusta, Jeffcoat said. The alleged misconduct occurred in Aiken County about 30 years ago, Jeffcoat said. The diocese said it first found out about the possible problem last week. "It is a credible accusation," Jeffcoat said. "We did notify the (Aiken) solicitor's office." She would not discuss details of the allegation. Calls to Solicitor Barbara Morgan's office were not immediately returned Thursday afternoon. 4 I =>/ i campus the re their cate from to a lucky r portrait aken can only $10 f1i4\5o/ f
