Will this construction be obsolete in ^ ^ ^ 10 years? â€¢ Goal-lessconstruction may be obsolete by BILL DIETRICH Campus architect Robert Aegerter warned Monday that an absence of long-range academic planning at Western could result in Western's new constructionbecoming obsolete in ten years. Because the college has failed to identify its future goals, Aegerterexplained, there is a danger that future methods of instruction might not be compatible with the traditional classroom structures now being built. He cited housing as a current example of a dormitory buildingprogram for old-style students which is BOB AEGERTER-"We may spend more time worrying about thequality of construction than the quality of instruction." now faced with obsolete floor plans in the wake ofchanging needs. Aegerter was responding to criticism summarized in the Committee of Inquiry (Clapp)report which accused the administration or college with preoccupation with new construction. The reportquoted one faculty wit who charged the administration with an, "edifice complex." The report said otherscomplained of college concentration with "bricks and mortar." Aegerter did not entirely disagree."Institution-wide," he said, "we may spend more time worrying about the quality of construction than thequality of instruction . . . . There is a tendency to deal with things like buildings rather than ideas." Buthe said he was "not sure whose fault that is." Aegerter estimated that Western's administration spentless time on construction plans than administrators at the other colleges at which he's worked. Heguessed that the facility fixation was more wide-spread and shared by the Board of Trustees. The deeper problem, Aegerter said, repeating a point made in the report, was that, "We don't have a clear image ofwhat Western should be." "Some at Western see the university as our model," Aegerter said. "Somelook backward at what Western was. Some look at liberal arts colleges as our ideal." "But I have asuspicion that Western should be creating its own model." Aegerter said Western's decade of growthhas made it a "new and unique" institution, "and I don't think we know what that means," He predictedthat earlier maturity on the part of students and the fact that they tend to be older when they graduatewould make the classroom lecture form of education increasingly obsolete as instruction moved off thecampus. Aegerter discounted the possibility that competition between building funds and faculty salaryraises had produced deep unrest among the faculty about new building. "Construction accounts for lessthan 10 per cent of the cost of educating a student," Aegerter said, and added that state budgetingmeans that any competition for funds is very indirect. He said that private and modern offices were bigattractions to faculty members. But he added, "As money for higher education gets harder and harder toget, indirect competition will increase." Despite state-wide economic upturns, Aegerter does not expectfinancial picture to rapidly There are too many other he said, competing for state Western's improve,concerns, resources. "It used to be education and highways that were the big concern. But not anymore. And we shouldn't be mad or sad. There are a lot of other problems." Again and again, Aegerterreturned t o the need for planning. "Comprehensive long-range planning at Western," he said, "has beenneither comprehensive nor long-range." Too much, he said, has been stopgap solutions, "to problemstwo years down the road." He talked of 20 year horizons. Aegerter predicted a slow-down in campusconstruction as learning programs were shifted off the campus. He proposed a radical program to make v future use of existing buildings. Under Aegerter's plan, the "mature" teenagers of tomorrow would cometo college at age 14 for three years of higher education in the liberal arts in the traditional collegecurriculum, making use of dormitories and classrooms. This would be followed by two or three years ofwork experience and that in turn would be followed by professional training, lasting anywhere from sixmonths to six years, in a professional career. Such a plan is not only radical in design, it is radical evento suggest it to a college currently blasting "innovation for innovations sake." But Aegerter is convincedthat after years of frantic growth, newly big colleges like Western need to pause and determine allpossible means of direction in the light of changing times. He mentioned a plan proposed inPennsylvania by another architect that the nation "take a year off" in 1976 and establish some goals foritself. Almost wistfully, Bob Aegerter suggested Western do the same, i fnsfde... Priorities in StudentHealth Service Budget problems limit the degree of treatment, but it's still a good buy. Seepg. 9.

He' likened the transition to easing into middle age. Our change to "life in the steady state," however, has hardly been graceful, he said. With the Clapp report,which detailed the reasons for the faculty's no-confidence vote against the president, less than a week inits semi-public place in the library, Flora turned his speech to what he considered the realities of highereducation. External forces have brought higher education to a new era, he said. By 1968 the "halcyon"years of growth had stopped. Student enrollment has now decreased, financial support has been reduced and the public has lost the confidence in higher education it once had, he said. Everyone wasconditioned to the 'up,' and no one thought faculty salary conditions of today could be so grave. Theadjustment to these conditions have been painful, he said, and the appointment of two faculty memberslast year "crystallized antagonism of great intensity." "Many continue to believe there are secret pockets of money," Flora said, but adjustment to the "reality of reduced support" is necessary. Flora said he willcontinue to try to convince Olympia that the small savings from budget cuts for higher education is the"epitome of false economy," but that the entire academic community must try to deal with the internalproblems of adjustment, including faculty tenure and promotion, with the attitude of doing what ispossible with limited resources. Western needs guidelines on how to reduce in some areas and allocatemore to other areas in order to give more security and direction. PATIENT LISTENERS-Members of thecollege community listen as President Flora talks about Western's transition. Another new trend in higher education Flora referred to is the loss of freedom for the individual institutions. The Council on HigherEducation, in making long-range plans for higher education in Washington, is by-passing the individualinstitutions. This means a loss of freedom for colleges and universities to plan their own futures, he said. More important than anything else is the strengthening of the student-faculty relationship, Flora said, and any innovations should strengthen this relationship. Flora described a good relationship between ateacher and student: the teacher is proud of and has the desire to communicate his knowledge and thestudent appreciates that knowledge and wants to know more. "No student should get through a classfeeling it was a soft touch," he said. Flora rejected the idea that student enrollment is decreasingbecause the quality of education is going down. He ascribed the decrease to external factors such asincreased fees and Evergreen College which draws students from Western. Flora stressed theimportance of letting the people of Washington know how good Western is. One way, he said, would beto rewrite that "dreadful document," the college catalog. Report publicity stirs unhappiness, concernUNHAPPY-George Gerhold, Senate chairman, said he was not pleased about the publicity of theCommittee of Inquiry (Clapp) Report nor, "the way the outside press got it." Flora possible candidate forpresidency of UW College President Charles J. Flora might not have been a man without a college if theBoard of Trustees had decided at its Dec. 7 meeting to request his resignation. Flora, subject of muchcontroversy at Western, and elsewhere, was named in a recent issue of Seattle's Argus magazine as apossible replacement for University of Washington president Charles Odegaard, who will resign beforethe beginning of Fall quarter. Flora's qualifications were examined in an article by Joel Connelly, whosaid the UW regents would "do well to consider the style of other college administrators who havesuccessfully coped" with academic, financial, student, f a c u l t y and community problems whenchoosing Odegaard's replacement. Connelly said Flora has "successfully mediated betweenconstituencies on the Bellingham campus, though his insistence on excellence in teaching has r a n k le d r e s e a r c h and reputation-conscious senior faculty members." He also praised Flora's " d i p l om a c y " in handling problems between the college and the Bellingham community and the fact that hehelped "pioneer the college-within a college concept"-Fairhaven, H u x l e y and E t h n ic Studies-which allow for more "student-teacher interaction." Flora, who was a biology teacher before he became an a d m i n i s t r a t o r , made his reputation as a "folk-hero teacher," Connelly said. Connelly concluded bysaying that Flora's selection is unlikely, in spite of his qualifications, because he has never heldadministrative authority on a "glamor campus, and selection committees tend to be snobbish about whoruns a 'rriUitivefsity:" v"'"'"' â€¢"'-' â€¢â€¢'~^^ by ALICE COLLING WOOD "There's been a lot of badpublicity raised about this college, some true and some false. Now we have to pick up the loose ends, tie them together and go forward in a positive direction." Those were the comments of AS Board ofDirectorsx Chairman Jim Kennedy in response to widespread publicity given the Committee of. Inquiry(Clapp) Report since its release to the library last week. The All-College Senate decided at its meetingJan. 8 to release the report, against the wishes of the Board of Trustees. Five copies of the report,detailing reasons for the faculty's no-confidence vote in College President Charles J. Flora last spring,were placed in the reserve room of the library, with the understanding that they were not to be released to the press. But the report was read by members of the press, and the stories written about it made many people unhappy. Senator Harvey Gelder of the Fairhaven faculty, who voted against release of thereport, said he is "concerned about the publicity given the whole thing by the newspapers." TrusteeRitajean Butterworth said she is "very disappointed" that the report received so much publicity, becausethe board had considered it a personnel matter and therefore not public. She said she was not speakingfor the board, but she did say the trustees had hoped people on the campus would be "dedicated enough to work toward solution of the problems" mentioned in the report. Mrs. Butterworth said board membersfelt they were "protecting the authors of the report, as well as the personality discussed" by asking thesenate not tojrelease the report. Kennedy said he wondered what the widespread publicity of the reportwould do to the "credibility of the senate with the Board of Trustees." Senate chairman George Gerholdthinks there was a strong desire on the part of the faculty, not just faculty senators, to have the reportreleased. He bases this assumption on the number of faculty members who talked to him and othersenators about it. But Gerhold said he is not pleased about the report's publicity or about the "ease withwhich members of the outside press got it." Although he is unhappy that people outside the collegecommunity saw the report, he does not blame the library for it. He said there was no directive to thelibrary to screen the press. "It was naive of some (of the senators) to assume that putting the report inthe library would keep it secret," Senator Phillip Montague of the philosophy department said. SenatorBrian Copenhaver of the general studies department said making the report "partially public was a face-saving move on the part of those who didn't want it exposed. It didn't reveal any secrets. There wasn't any information in it that people didn't already have." Copenhaver added that the report could have beencompiled by clipping old newspaper articles. Gerhold said the senate has not received any commentsdirectly from members of the Board of Trustees, and he doesn't anticipate the senate taking any furtheraction on release of the report, such as letting it out completely or removing it from the library. Montague said that as far as he can see, Flora has not been affected by the publicity given the report, except thathe is "not as visible now." He thinks if the charges in the report are widely known, Flora "may bemotivated to make sure they don't apply." But Kennedy\sdd he doesn't think the charges against Florajustified the "political animosity generated toward him." "I wish the president could have been spared allof this," Montague said. "I like him personally, but to a very large extent, I think he brought it on himself.Mrs. Butterworth wishes "the whole thing were over now. I think the (college) community should get tothe business it's there for and let Dr. Flora do his job." Winter enrollment declines 6 60 Enrollment forwinter quarter has been set at 8,224, a decline of 660 students from fall quarter. Registrar William''O'Neil said that 275 of the non-returning students received baccalaureate degrees. " I t appears that theproportion of full-time students is higher this quarter than it was last quarter," said O'Neil. He also saidthat the rate of enrollment decline shows a slight improvement over previous quarters. â€¢ â€¢'" ' ---------- Western Front - 1973 January 19 - Page 3 ---------- Friday, January 19;'1973 Western Front 3- Anti-war demonstrators hit streets for inauguration Tomorrowis Inauguration Day and demonstrations against President Nixon and the Indochina War will be held inWashington, D.C., as well as at the Westlake Mall in Seattle and at the Federal Building in Bellingham.

Early-release program for prisoners meets difficulties The proposedprisoner early-release program that would bring convicted felons to Western to live and attend classesappears to be bogged down in technicalities and opposition. Proposed to the Board of Trustees andthen to the All-College Senate by College President Charles Flora last fall quarter, the program has metinternal and external opposition, and technicalities outlined by the State Department of Social andHealth Services. Approval of the program last fall by the Board of Trustees and the senate paved the way for the setting up of a consortium between Western, Whatcom Community College and the BellinghamTechnical Institute. According to one student government official, who wished to remain anonymous, the consortium is having trouble entering into an agreement because of the public opposition to theprogram. The first step into bringing prisoners on campus was approval by the senate and the Board ofTrustees; that accomplished the next step is an agreement among the three schools. The third step isan agreement and practical implementation of the program between the consortium and the Department of Social and Health Services. Adamant in his defense of the program, President Flora said, "Early-release is nothing new in Whatcom county . . . (Sheriff) Bernie Reynolds knows it works." "It is a worthy concept to try on an expanded scale. In the current penology system the recidivism rate is very high,prisons are frequently training g r o u n d s . . . . It is difficult to think of anything good to say about thetraditional prison system." President Flora indicated the problem this year was one of funding andmeeting the provisions set up by the Department of Social and Health Services. He said that the early-release program would not be initiated until sometime after Spring quarter. President Flora commentedthat the program wasn't finished yet and said he hoped some definite plans would be forthcoming.Federal loan applicants face new restrictions February 1 Students who need federally insured loans forspring quarter should apply before change in the law governing the loans goes into effect Feb. 1. Thenew rules may make the loans harder to get for many students. The loan applications will also takelonger to process because of an additional form required by the new law, said Esperanza Brito, financialaids counselor. The new form asks for a ' ' u n i f o r m l y a p p l i ed determination of need" in the"best judgment" of the financial aids officer. This will call for m o r e investigation and interviewing by thefinancial aids officers. After the new law is in effect applications will take at least one week to process,as opposed to the one day now needed, Brito said. The Financial Aids office is in the process ofdeciding how to determine the need of each student fairly. It is possible that under the new rules, thestudent could claim that his parents do not contribute to his education. B u t a p r e d e t e r m i n edmathematical formula, such as the Parents Confidential Statement, would indicate that the parentscould contribute a percentage of their income. Brito said the Financial Aids office is trying to work out afair way of avoiding this while still complying with federal law. At least one bank will stop processing theloans on Feb. 1. Washington Mutual Savings Bank, one of the primary lenders under the program, willstop accepting the loan applications until all the details concerning the new law are straightened out,Brito added. Applications for federally insured loans can be picked up at the Financial Aids office, OldMain 103. Rents now unrestricted Landlords can legally raise rent rates as high as they want now thatthe federal controls on wages and prices have been lifted. The removal of price g u i d e l i n e s andceilings announced by the Nixon administration this week leaves "no mandatory restrictions" on rentincreases. However, "landlords are expected to exercise restraint", according to Bernice Landry, PublicAffairs Officer for the Internal Revenue Office's Seattle district. Previous actions had lifted the controls for those landlords who own four or fewer units, or about 70 per cent of the nation's home and apartmentowners. The remaining 30 per cent are now free of any government restrictions. The government iscontinuing to monitor rent rates "on a spot-check basis" and could reinstate rent controls "at any time"if landlords oegin raising rents at alarming or inflationary rates, Landry added. Landry said that theInternal Revenue Service does not know of any legal recourse against excessive rent hikes that couldbe taken by tenants, but indicated that the government is not expecting extreme rent increases as aresult of the removal, of restrictions.

Laurel oil spill could be taste of things tocome "This spill is just a forerunner of things to come," according to a Department of Ecology (DOE)official at the site of the Laurel oil spill, five miles northeast of Bellingham. A break in an oil pipeline Jan. 10 spewed oil up to two feet deep along a ditch, through a swamp and into two ponds on farms. Thepipeline, constructed in 1954, is operated by TransMountain Oil Pipeline Corp. An unofficial estimate of 500,000 to one million gallons of oil was given by the DOE official. About 400,000 gallons have beenpumped out of the ponds as of Wednesday. TransMountain had not yet received results of tests on thepipe to determine the cause of the break. According to Stan Springer of the DOE, the break was, mostlikely, the result of flaws in the metal or the weld. According to Springer, the recovered oil is being takento refineries to separate impurities for re-use. A DOE geologist checked the site Wednesday and saidthere is little danger of ground water contamination. Efforts are being made to keep oil from reachingPuget Sound via the drainage system. Walt Hitchcock, of the DOE is in charge of clean-up operations.He said that pipeline spills are becoming a more frequent occurrence because many pipelines aregetting too old. Hitchcock feels that this will become a real problem as more pipelines are built, and willdwarf the tanker spills in importance. Cost of clean-up will probably exceed $ 1 million. This figure doesnot include damages paid to farmers.s The DOE must be satisfied with TransMountain's clean-up or itcan finish the job at the company's expense. State law requires that the land affected must be restored. The DOE will not monitor the site for ecological consequences. The department has no research staff.A group of Huxley students are looking into the feasibility of a long-term project to determine theenvironmental effects of the oil spill. According to Huxley, little is known of the effects of oil spills onland. do/nhed/ 10 MISC. FOR SALE Hand printing presses. 5x8 - $35.00. 9x13 - $75.00. Type withcases.

The final day for filing is Thursday, Jan. 25, and the election is Jan. 31. The secretary-treasurer (position 3) and threeat-large members (positions 7, 8, 9) will be elected. They would serve through fall quarter. The membersat large to be elected will have few specified duties, since they will not serve on any of the AS councils.At a later date, however, one of the newly elected directors may serve on the Publications Council, saidRebecca Harris, vice-chairman of the board. Secretary-treasurer is the only paid position to be filled now. The at-large positions to be filled during this election demand little of the student's time, Harris said. The persons elected would meet with the board twice a month for about one and a half hours and perhapsspend about an hour before hand studying the agenda, she said. If the student has an individual project to carry out, however, he could then spend an unlimited amount of time at the job, she said. The duties ofthe AS board are to manage the affairs, the funds and the property of the Associated Students. Theboard has defegated much of the management to special councils, such as the Activities Council. Amember of the board sits on each council. As mentioned above, however, no member elected this month will sit on a council, with the possible exception of the student Publications Council. To be eligible torun for the available positions a 2.0 grade point average is required. For a student to have his nameplaced on the ballot he must have 25 signatures of AS members on a petition, and he must make a $10damage deposit to cover possible damage to the campus grounds during the campaign. The time of thecampaign will be limited, the dates to be announced later by the board. Also limited is the amount thecandidates may spend on their campaigns. The secretary-treasurer candidates may spend up to $25,and the at-large candidates may spend up to $15. Rebecca Harris said that being in student government "can be an ego trip," but that a student can also benefit greatly by taking an office. She said it is a goodtraining m management, a good addition to a job resume and good experience in conceiving a project and carrying it out. Extensive regulations govern campus residents Water beds are not permitted in college housing, and dogs are not permitted anywhere on campus unless they are under the immediate controlof their owners. So state two of the rules included in a 44-page document containing regulationsgoverning the campus community. The document was accepted by the Board of Trustees in November.Though the rules are basically those which the college has operated under in the past, the State HigherEducation Administrative Procedures Act, passed in the 1971 session of the state legislature, requiresthat they be collected in a uniform written document. The section which forbids water beds in collegehousing also outlines regulations regarding application, deposits, rents and rights. The college reservesthe right to enter any room or apartment to make repairs or where there are "reasonable grounds tobelieve that a condition exists which may threaten the health, safety or welfare of persons or propertywithin the building." Occupants of college housing may be evicted for having pets (with the exception ofaquarium life), making additions or alterations without writtern permission of the housing office, usingcooking equipment in residence halls or failing to pay housing charges. Landlords can be refused orrevoked from a list of off-campus housing maintained by the director of housing and the AssociatedStudents' housing commissioner if they refuse to sign non-discrimination pledges; commit or permitunfair, illegitimate, unethical or unsafe practices; or refuse to admit members of the housing commissionto vacant rental units for purposes of inspection. For those who are not in the habit of reading the dailybulletin, a rule under a chapter on general conduct offers a warning. It states that all members of thecollege community are expected to consult the bulletin on the date of its publication. Those identified byname or class "shall be deemed officially notified." Smokers are warned under another section. Smoking is prohibited in any building on campus except in areas designated by the college president, in facultyand administrative offices at the discretion of the individual in charge of each office and in seminar roomsif a faculty member is present and "adequate ashtrays are available." Parents may be consultedregarding records of minor students if the college considers it to be in the best interests of the students,according to a section under a chapter on access to public records. Public records are defined as anythe college is required by law to keep. These include such things as regulations governing the college,budget and financial procedures, catalogs and other college publications, contracts and deeds and thenames, addresses and phone numbers of students and' employees. Nonpublic records includedepartmental records; records maintained by counselors, the placement office, the admissions andregistrar's offices and the dean of students' office; and information relating to disciplinary action.againststudents. Most of this information can be obtained by written request through proper channels. Thecollege "reserves the right" to release information to governmental officials "when in the opinion of thePresident a clear and imminent danger of life or property exists." The registrar may prepare reports for the Selective Service, Social Security and Veterans' Administration. Students have the right to view theirofficial records and may file in any but academic records addendums regarding information they think isinadequately or inaccurately presented. Academic records may be corrected only by action of theregistrar. Prospective student teachers, interns urged to attend session Students expecting to enterclinical programs or student teach during the next academic year may wish to remember Jan. . 22through 25. On these days, placement on location, quarter, and kind of teaching for the 1973-74 schoolyear will be discussed. On Jan. 22 and 24 at 4 p.m. and Jan. 23 and 25 at 3 p.m., Students are urged to attend large group question-and-answer sessions in Lecture Hall 4. Individual appointments can also be arranged by signing up in Miller Hall 206. The following week, professors from Bellingham, Everett,Seattle, Auburn, and Kent will be present to all students interested in those areas. According to LarrySwift, associate professor in education, each student interested must attend-but need only to attendone of the meetings. Information is now available for personal 10-page brochures prior to the meetingsand can be obtained at the Student Teaching Office, Miller Hall 206. Interest on student co-op reservefund used for grants, scholarship Interest from student co-op bookstore reserve funds totalling $170,000will be available as grants and scholarships pending decisions from the financial aids office and the Co-Op Bookstore. The revenue amounts to about $10,000 annually. The money is subject to existingfederal laws concerning scholarships, according to Dick Coward, director of financial aid at Western.

Richard Milhaus Nixonâ€”whofour years ago said that any president who could not achieve peace in four years should not be givenanother chanceâ€”begins his second chance tomorrow. Nixon has often said that he hopes to go downin history as a peacemaker but it is difficult to discern whether that means Nixon is genuinely interestedin peace or whether he is simply interested in his own appearance in the history books. What Nixonplans to do with his next four years is still a matter of conjecture. But one can gain at least a vague ideaof what Nixonism holds in store by examining a few developments that have occurred since the November election. First of all, a president who insists that he wants to be remembered as a peacemaker hasinitiated the most severe bombing attacks the world has ever seen. Secondly, a president who insists hecares about "the little guy" has announced cutbacks in the domestic fight against poverty. Thirdly, thepresident continues to give lip service to "freedom" while a Nixon-stocked Supreme Court ordersnewsmen jailed for withholding information. What has happened in the past two months is probably onlya small indication of what the president has planned for us in the next four years. Armed with hislandslide election victory, Nixon feels he has the "green light" to run this country exactly as he sees fit.In short, we have a dangerous situation here. Nixon is at the helm for four more yearsâ€”now more solidly than everâ€”and he doesn't even have his reelection to worry about anymore. One thing's perfectly clear,however. If Nixon's second four years are anything like the firstâ€”and there is no immediate reason toexpect improvement-it's going to be one long time before any history book tries to label him apeacemaker. the _ western front staff EDITORIAL PHONE 676-3161 ADVERTISING PHONE 676-3160EDITOR: Jack Broom MANAGING EDITOR: Rodger Painter PRODUCTION: Duff Wilson SPORTS:Howard Scott COPY EDITORS: James Heitzman, Rahn Lahti, Dennis Mansker, Judy Mooers, DennisRitchie AD MANAGER: Richard Roff GRAPHICS: Elsi Vassdal BUSINESS MANAGER: Terri WhitneyPHOTO EDITOR: Robert Neale PHOTOGRAPHERS: Bob McLauchlan, Thomas Schultz, Jim ThomsonREPORTERS: Christine Anderson, Scott Anderson, Rob Baldwin, Alan Bauer, John Brewington, JimBrooks, Sonja Brown, Doug Cockbum, Alice Collingwood, Bill Dietrich, Nicholas Gardner, VictoriaHamilton, John Harris, Bruce Hayes, Rochelle Henderson, Heidi Henken, Deborah Henry, Tom Home,O.K.

Warn UW about Flora Editor, Western Front: I call to your attention an article by Mr. JoelConnelly in the opinion magazine Argus, Jan. 7 edition. Connelly writes about potential successors toDr. Charles Odegaard, President of the University of Washington, who is resigning at the end of thisacademic year. He mentions four or five people he would favor for the position, among them KingmanBrewster of Yale University, Father Hesburgh of Notre Dame and late of the U.S. Civil RightsCommission, and Charles J. Flora, "the Northwest's answer to Father Hesburgh"! Connelly approvesFlora for his alleged success in college-city relations, in achieving excellence of education and thefurtherance of decentralization evidenced by the cluster colleges. He is, in short, a community "folk-hero." Connelly says Flora will p r o b a b l y not get the appointment because he does not have theprestige of a glamour appointment behind him. Just to be on the safe side, Western students who haveconcern for their University brethren would do well to write the U.W. Board of Trustees to let them knowthe real truth about the sinister Dr. Flora. â€¢ " Sincerely, John Southard Fairhaven College Critique,don't attack Editor, Western Front: With reference to Knowles' letter concerning the self-study program,surely it must yet be possible to critique an idea or program without the use of ridicule or sarcasm (e.g.the use of "groovy" to describe the program). An attack, no matter in what robes of righteousness it iecloaked, is still an attack and one of its most unfortunate consequences is that it invites an attack inreturn. If we have any remaining hopes of achieving any reconciliation or creating new resynthesis in this institution, we must exercise more restraint and civility in our treatment of one another. Otherwise itmay simply be too late. Ed Jacobs Lecturer, Sociology FREE FISH WRAPPERS-Thousands of spoiledcopies of Tuesday's Western Front remain in the newspaper's office.

Organized by University Year for Action (UYA), a national program of studentvolunteers in full-time, community-service programs, the student speech therapists have provokedenthusiastic response from local schools. Eleven Western students are already working in eight schooldistricts in Whatcom, Skagit and Island counties. For their year of full-time work they receive 45 creditsfrom the speech department and $150 a month for living expenses. Sam Polen, Western's director forthe student program, said the volunteers work directly with school therapists.

In a public statement, Director John Biggs, Department of Ecology, said "The Department hascontinually monitored the situation for several months and has concluded that any benefits derived fromthe High Ross Dam would be so short-lived that the environmental damage the raising of the dam wouldcause would materially outweigh any advantages." The department's opposition is based on projectionswhich show that the dam construction would provide only an interim solution to Seattle City Light'senergy requirements. The project would not satisfy demand for more than five years, according to thedepartment of ecology. Biggs said that the situation points out the urgent need for a total state energypolicy. The department is seeking such a program. Citizen leaders from all levels of government as wellas environmentalists and industrial concerns would take part. The High Ross Dam proposal, submittedby Seattle City Light, would raise the height of the present dam 122^ feet to increase the power output of the dam. The proposed height increase would floor 5,200 acres of British Columbia's Upper SkagitRiver Valley. The B.C. Provincial Government is opposed to the project. Environmental groups such asthe Sierra Club and Friends of the Earth have opposed the project for over five years, and Wes Uhlman,mayor of Seattle and Governor Dan Evans have expressed opposition also. Social and religious functions ormon student center planr by RAHN LAHTI The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is movingahead with its plans to build a religious instruction and student center at 201 High St. near Western'scampus. "With the architectural squabble we went through with the board (Bellingham's Board ofAdjustment)," said DeLyle Southam, Institute of Religion director, "it was looking like the project mightbe delayed up to two years." The board had turned down the church's first request, comparing thebuilding's design to that of a "gas station." Church architect Merwyn Haneberg presented the board with slightly revised plans, and a permit to build the center was granted. "We're building next to thecollege," Southam said, "because the center is meant to balance the education of our college-agechurch members."

Membership in the Guild is automatic with the purchase of a season ticket-membership. The membership includes a season ticket to all Guild playsand voting rights when the Guild elects its officers and trustees Any member of the community, including students from Western, may contribute to the Guild* either by buying a membership or volunteering towork on any of their productions. The Guild provides an "outlet for creative talents" of Western students.Tavlor said. He also said that the Guild gets a lot of cooperation from other parts of the community,including the high schools. "People in theater work together," he â€¢ said. Although the Guild has beenhoused many places since 1929, including the auditorium of the Bellingham Normal School' (nowWestern) St. Paul's Episcopal Church on Walnut Street, and an old funeral parlor on the corner ofProspect and Flora, its permanent home is now a renovated Congregational Church building which theGuild purchased in 1947. The Guild is self-supporting. It survives on revenues from ticket sales andmemberships, and currently has the extra added income of rental money from Western, which has founditself with a shortage of stages due to campus construction. Now in rehearsal, the Guild is preparing topresent a Feb. 1-3 and 8-10 showing of "Winterset," a play by Maxwell Anderson.

Decreased Western budgetproposed to legislature by Evans Sometime in the future, juniors and seniors attending state colleges inWashington may have their tuition payments increased by 600 per cent. A document issued by thestate's Council on Higher Education last November recommended a graduated tuition fee forWashington's college students. There is little chance that the proposal will be considered by this year'slegislature. However, the document reflects changing concepts of how higher education should befinanced. The council consists of professional educators and citizen members who makerecommendations to the l e g i s l a t u r e . The council suggested phased increases on an annualbasis of $300 to $350 for lowerclassmen, $990 to $1,080 for upperclassmen, and $1,170 to $1,380 forgraduate students. The council recommends that the state develop a system of grant and workopportunities for lowerclassmen. Long-term loans with a low-interest rate, along with work opportunities,would serve upperclassmen and graduates. Higher education funding patterns are changing across thenation, according to the document. The slowdown of enrollment growth, coupled with here next fall hefuture. All the project oopulation at Western to be from one to one-and-a-half per :ent of the 8,500 total."Right low," he said, "we have about 100 students active in our Masses, but there are more kids atWestern that would be interested in them. That's another reason why we're building the center next tothe school." The building, called a Ryan Phase I type, can and will be added to in the future. The first "s e c t i o n " will include a classroom, kitchen, library, lounge, two offices and a small recreation room.Southam said, "The second section will probably be built within two years, but the. last section will have to wait until we have enough demand (people) to require it." Southam, who has been sent here by theChurch of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in Salt Lake City to be the director of the institute, said,"Just so the taxpayers won't be worried, all of the money for the building and land is coming from thechurch in Salt Lake." Groundbreaking for the center will take place in early March with the proposedcompletion date set for summer, 1973.. shifting priorities in state government spending, are factorswhich are already causing changes in financing higher education. There have been changes at Western. Eight years ago the tuition was $85 a quarter. Now its $165. The Financial Aids Office estimates that1300 students are receiving financial aid (work-study, grants, loans) this year, 1600 have receivedfederally insured loans, as many as last year's entire total; there are 1200 part-time campus jobs filled,with 135 applications for openings. The figures overlap with one another. The Veterans Affairs Officeestimates that 900 to 1000 students are attending school under the GI Bill. The Off-CampusEmployment Service does not have figures, Seven interns get inside look at legislature Seven Westernstudents are presently participating in a first hand view of state politics this legislative session. They are Les Johnson, Stan Cuykensald, Susan Cole, Linda Kelley, Linford Cliff, Pete Scott and Craig Cole. Cole is not interning under the program but is working for Barney Goltz, freshman legislator, in a self-designed program. The internship program, headed by John Hebal, of the political science department,includes researching bills, maintaining correspondence with constituents and attending committeemeetings. The interns receive credit in the program and are required to do supplementary reading andtwo extensive term reports. Student selections were made by evaluating student character and gradepoint average. but says their office is quite busy. Michael W. Barnhart, executive assistant to President Flora, said that the council's proposal is "a case ofputting the cart before the horse." The council wasexpected to issue a plan on the long-range goals and objectives of higher education, he said. Instead ofreporting on the future aim of higher education, the council concentrated on finances. "I seriouslyquestion the whole approach," Barnhart said. "It's a sharp departure from the traditional way of financing .higher education. It asks .students to advertise their future earnings." Donald H. Cole, businessmanager for Western, said that he did not really like the whole approach. "I don't want to move from lowcost to high cost in terms of a student financing his higher education," Cole said. If such a concept isimplemented, Cole said access to higher education beyond the sophomore year would depend on thestudent's finances. Cole questioned why Washington should be a pioneer in this field. He emphasizedthat no action is expected on the council â€¢document during the present biennium. ---------- Western Front - 1973 January 19 - Page 8 ---------- 8 Western Front Friday, January 19, 1973 Typewriters, Adding Machines, Sales, Service, arid Rentals., business machines 14111 Commercial 734-3630 Hatcheries save fish from extinction Area lakesstocked with popular species Head flood Cliff's Notes help you think for yourself in literature.

To prevent freshwatergame fish species from being obliterated, the Department of Fisheries yearly restocks a number ofareas from its hatcheries. Two such hatcheries are located in the Bellingham area. One, used mostly for breeding varieties of trout is at Whatcom Falls Park near the north end of Lake Whatcom. The other,which collects freshwater salmon eggs and stocks Lake Whatcom with from four to five million smallsalmon per year lies at the south end of the lake on Brannion Creek. W a y n e T i d y m a n, s u p e r in t e n d a n t of the Bellingham Hatchery, said that from 10 to 15 million kokanee salmon eggs arecollected at the Brannion Creek hatchery each year between mid-October and December. The four or five million salmon put back into Lake Whatcom are hatched at Brannion Creek and planted at the mouthof the stream. When the kokanee, a variety of Sockeye, reach the age of four, their spawning instinctslead them back to where they were released. They are then caught and their eggs are removed to beEvans slices budget by $ 8 . 6 million Western cannot expect to receive more than $34 million for the1973-75 operating budget, Tim Kao, director of the controllers office, said.

Upcoming articles will explore freeclinics, emergency services and women's clinics. by BENNO STECKLER Some students do not realize that the degree of treatment the Student Health Service provides is not limitless. The health service islocated in Edens Hall and is open from 8 to 11 a.m. and from 1 to 4 p.m. weekdays. If a student comesdown with ailments such as influenza, upper D R . K E N N E TH JERNBERG-Director says he'soperating at 35 per cent of the recommended budget. r e s p i r a t o r y afflictions, b r o n c h i t i s ,pneumonia, gonorrhea or the common cold, the health service can treat him. Other ailments treated bythe health service , include urinary infections, sprains and simple fractures such as fingers and toes,minor lacerations, anxiety, " s h i n g l e s " and other ' ' m e n t a l - p h y s i c a l complications." Inthe last case the health service works jointly with the Student Counseling Service. All treatment isconfidential in both clinics. Opinions of students who have received treatment at . Western's clinic arevaried. They range from "I've got no complaints" to "They don't do anything but put a thermometer inyour mouth." The cases that are referred out by the health service generally run up a bill. If a student isinsured, the debts will be paid. Otherwise, the costs are the responsibility of the student. The extent towhich the clinic can provide treatment is determined by the budget*Dr. Kenneth Jernberg, director of the health service, said, "We are currently operating on 35 per cent of the recommended budget." It is from this economic standpoint that Dr. Jernberg has developed the present system of health care. TheSupplementary Student Health Plan, an insurance policy ($13.85 per quarter), was designed to coverstudents with conditions, that need treatment outside the health clinic's range. Similar programs exist at Harvard and Colorado State. Under the plan a student must first go to the health service for initialdiagnosis. In most cases treatment and prescriptions will be handled at the clinic. If the ailmentwarrants further treatment the student is WAITING ROOM BLUES-'Tve been here for four hours" is carved on one of the desks. referred to specialist, an emergency clinic or a hospital with the proper facilities. If the student has taken out an insurance policy, most of his bills will be paid. "Some people are notmature enough to come to grips with their health needs. Three years ago nearly one-third of the studentbody did not carry any, type of health insurance," said Dr. Jernberg. The cost of setting a broken bone,hospitalization, surgeon's fees and blood transfusions mount up in a hurry, he added. Some 300 morestudents than last year at this time have1 sought medical treatment at the health" service. This may bethe reason for the "long wait" that some students complain of. "I've been here for four hours" is carvedon one of the desks in the waiting room. In addition to Dr. Jernberg, two doctors and five nurses staff the health service. The need for another doctor and possibly more nurses is one of the problems that Dr.Jernberg presently faces. Next year's budget will determine what changes will be' made at the clinic.Speaking in a philosophical tone Dr. Jernberg commented on improvements needed at the StudentHealth Service. "You never quite get everything you can use in a field such as this, and the presenthealth service needs some improvements. If more people would give more priority to health care ratherthan assuming good health, I'm sure some major changes would be made," he said.

The legislation, House Bill 88, also would prevent newsmen,editors, or publishers from being charged with contempt of court for refusing to reveal their sources ofnews information. The bill has been referred to the Committee on Judiciary of t h e State House ofRepresentatives. Rep. H. A. "Barney" Goltz, Democrat from the 42nd district and Western's CampusPlanner, is one co-sponsor of the bill. Goltz feels that recent events such as the jailing of newsmen inCalifornia and New Jersey for refusing to reveal their sources have led directly to the need for moreprotection for members of the press. "A free press is so essential to the success of a democratic statethat tampering with it is an attack on democracy itself," Goltz said. The proposed legislation, Goltzindicated, was only a partial remedy for problems that may arise on the state level comparable to thosealready being experienced on a national level. "It is our deepest hope that our legislative efforts mayeffect at least a partial solution to what is becoming an increasingly apparent problem of attempts tomanage the press," Goltz said. A copy of the proposed legislation has been sent by Goltz to membersof the media in Whatcom County with a request for advice and consultation from the people who will beaffected the most by it. College editor removed for violating administration policy The editor of the"Viking News" the college newspaper at Ocean County College in Tomsriver, N. J., was removed fromhis post after a college judicial board found him guilty of violating editorial policy set down by the college administration. The judicial board objected to a full page picture of Santa Claus with his middle fingerupraised, and a column of the "Doctor's Bag," contained in the Dec. 18 edition of the "Viking News."The "Doctor's Bag" is a column nationally syndicated by College Press Service (CPS) in which Dr.Arnold Werner answers students' questions about sex, drugs, health and other subjects of interest. The judicial board found the Santa Claus photograph and the "Doctor's Bag" column to be beyond theaccepted standards of "decency" of the college and the community, according to a CPS story. Theeditor, Gregory B. Edgecomb, was also found guilty of violating the college's procedure by not submitting the copy for the Dec. 18 issue to a faculty adviser prior to publication. Edgecomb is protesting hisremoval, and the local chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union has decided to handle Edgecomb'sappeal and take his case to court. CPS has protested the removal of Edgecomb to the O c e a nCounty College administration, calling his dismissal a case of unwarranted and illegal censorship, andan infringement on the freedom of the presss. Workshop focuses on legislature A legislative workshop, with special focus on the concerns of women in Olympia this year, is scheduled for Jan. 27 at theYWCA at 1026 N.

"We really needed a game like that to get us back onthe right track," Viking coach Chuck Randall said. "I think we really are making great progress as ateam."

Bang! Vik cagers blitz Saints 102-77 by O. K. JOHNSONDeadlocked 41-41 at the half, Western exploded for 61 points in the second period to stun St. Martin's102-77 Tuesday night in Carver Gym. Playing tight defense for the first three minutes and forcing theSaints into costly turnovers, the Vikings spurted to a quick 8-0 lead with Mike Franza, Mike Buza, TomMount and Dick Bissell each hitting for two points. The Saints went to their inside men, Ron Sheets and Neil Martin to get the Northwest's number two ranked team into gear. St. Martin's slowly crept up onthe Big Blue with Sheets and Martin supplying most of the firepower to tie the contest 41-41 at the half.The Saints took the lead for the only time in the game on guard Tom Feratto's 15-foot jumper to start the half. Feratto's shot brought the crowd to its feet and Western responded in convincing fashon withFranza, Buza, Mount and Chuck Price pushing the Vikings to a 12-point lead, 55-43 with 15:05 eft toplay.- Franza kept burning the Saint defense for driving lay-ins and Buza kept hitting underneath as theBig Blue blitzed their way to a commancing 73-53 lead during the next seven minutes. St. Martin's went to their full court press but it only made matters worse for the Lacey quintet as Buza threw longdowncourt passes to Franza standing all alone under the basket. The Big Blue took their longest lead of the night after Bissell tipped in a missed Franza free throw to make the score 94-65 with just under four minutes remaining to play. Craig Nicholes cracked the century mark for the Vikings with a ten footjumper with 1:45 left to play. Fisher closed out the scoring on a pair of free throws that gave thedefending Evergreen Conference and District 1 champions their sixth win in 14 starts. Franza put inanother superior performance, tallying 36 points with eight assists and three rebounds. Perhaps hisfinest statistics of the game were his eight steals against the Saints back court men. Buza and Mountboth had exceptional nights also. Mount garnered 21 points, shooting over the SMC zone while Buzascored 19 points, four assists and six rebounds. Feratto led the Saints with 22 counters while Martinand Sheets had 16 and 15 points respectively. Western hosts Southern Oregon tonight and OregonTech tomorrow night as the Vikings resume Evco Play.

Sport fronts Excitement plus... by HOWARDSCOTT Looking for some excitement this weekend? You don't have to go any farther than Carver Gym for all the sweaty-palmed thrills you can stand. Western's basketball team will host two EvergreenConference opponents this weekend. Despite the Vikings' unimpressive 6-8 season record, the Big Bluehas lost only one home game this year, and, as any basketball freak will tell you, Western at home is adifferent breed of Viking. There is something about the atmosphere around Carver Gym that supercharges not only the Vikings, but also the crowd. Maybe it's, the altitude of Sehome Hill, or it could be the rarefied air around Old Main, or it could even be the sweet scent of Bellingham Bay, but something makesballplayers and fans alike do strange things in Western's gym. For example, Tuesday night St. Martin'sCollege came to Western trying to beat the Vikings for the second time this season. The Saints hadstopped Western, 87-75, last month in Lacey and were looking for another easy win here. The win was acomplete team effort for the Big Blue, the offense got '61 points in the second half as the defense held the Saints to only 36. What surprised the Saints was the ease they had in catching Western 41-all in thehalf. Starting the second St. Martin's popped out to a two-point lead. Then Western turned on the CarverGym magic and blowing the game wide open. They weren't ready for the welcome Western extendedthem. The Saints left Bellingham that night with 77 points-and 12 pairs of self-destructed gym shoes-theVikings had rammed in 102 points. Backing the play of the Vikings was the roar of the crowd. Cheeringnot only Western's baskets and steals, but also the defensive switches and board play of the Big Blue,and putting up a solid wall of sound every time the Saints brought the ball down court. St. Martin's coachDick Kaufman tried to keep his team in the game with frequent stops of the clock to give his playersinstructions and hope that the superhot Viks would cool down. But when the Saints ran out of time outswith six minutes left in the game the Vikings and their crowd were just getting warmed up. Tonight theBig Blue and its crowd will be waiting for Southern Oregon College and tomorrow Oregon Tech venturesonto the Vikings' private preserve. The noise is loud, the action is tense and the excitement iscontagious so don't forget your nitroglycerine tablets when you're out looking for thrills this weekend. Just be glad you're on our side. â€¢â€¢â€¢.â€¢â€¢â€¢ gt; gt;. . . , , . . atmen host Central today Afterbattling the flu and injuries this week, Western's wrestlers face even a tougher foe t o d a y whenCentral's powerhouse Wildcats invade Carver Gym at 2:30 p.m. The Wildcat team is strong, tough and'experienced and has placed in the top 10 of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA)tournament for the last eight years. Two years ago the Ellensburg team captured the nationalchampionship and last year they placed fourth. Bellingham fans will get a chance to see formerBellingham High School wrestling great Greg Gowens. Gowens was state high school runner-up in 1970, won the state title in 1971, was national AAU champ during his senior year and Evergreen Conference142-pound champ last season. Western's Mark Sencenbaugh will be meeting Gowens. Sencenbaugh is still battling the flu, but according to coach Rick Iverson, "wants to wrestle against Central very much."In previous meetings between the two, Gowens has defeated Sencenbaugh handily. The 126-poundmatch between Admiral Flunder of the Vikings and Central's John Reichart promises to be a real crowdpleaser. Flunder captured a 9-7 decision over Reichart at the Cheney tournament earlier this season.However, since that time, Reichart has had a very good season. When the 150-pound match betweenTom Tripple and Central's John Burkholder gets under way, 300 pounds of solid muscle will be on themat. Burkholder, a freshman, is a former state champion and state champion runner-up from OlympiaHigh School. He is going for the world weight lifting bench press record at his weight. "While we feelthat Tripple is the better wrestler, the crowd will have never seen a muscle like Burkholder," Iverson said. While the Vikings suffered a major setback at the 134 class when Karl Rush injured the cartilage in his knee this week, Central's Kit Shaw fared no better as he also damaged the cartilage in his knee. Rushis expected back by tournament time, but Shaw will miss the rest of the season. Dwight Mack, a starter all year along, will go against Central's 134 pounder. With the flue sidelining Mark Stroobrant, DaveHolte will make his' first varsity appearance at the 158 class. John Mosich at 167 is reported to belooking stronger every day, according to Iverson. In wrestle off action this week, Brett Bennett recorded a 4-2 decision over "B.J." Bill Jones to earn the starting berth today. "Hopefully by tournament time,either B.J. or Bennett will have scaled down to fill the 190 position," Iverson said. "Both men are thinkingabout it very seriously."

Artist Morgan Delt (DavidWarner) collects gorilla trivia, looks somewhat like a gorilla, and even fantasizes himself as a gorillaswinging through the trees. This simian obsession becomes too much for Morgan's wife (VanessaRedgrave). She divorces him and takes up with Morgan's art dealer. One does not cross a gorilla, andone does not cross Morgan. Though immature- in emotions and intellect, Morgan is fully developedphysically and sexually, a man-child in an adult world. He is also a nut. Try as he might Morgan justcan't get his wife back. The world is for people, not gorillas. "Morgan!" directed by Karel Reisz. DavidWarner, Vanessa Redgrave, Robert Stephens. British, 1966. If you liked the book "Play It As It Lays,"you'll no doubt get along very well with the movie version, now playing at the Viking II. Joan Didion wrote the screenplay for her novel about life in Hollywood. Frank Perry ("Last Summer") directed the movie,starring Tuesday Weld and Anthony Perkins. It's a subtle and complex movie, not necessarily foreveryone.

Will this construction be obsolete in ^ ^ ^ 10 years? â€¢ Goal-lessconstruction may be obsolete by BILL DIETRICH Campus architect Robert Aegerter warned Monday that an absence of long-range academic planning at Western could result in Western's new constructionbecoming obsolete in ten years. Because the college has failed to identify its future goals, Aegerterexplained, there is a danger that future methods of instruction might not be compatible with the traditional classroom structures now being built. He cited housing as a current example of a dormitory buildingprogram for old-style students which is BOB AEGERTER-"We may spend more time worrying about thequality of construction than the quality of instruction." now faced with obsolete floor plans in the wake ofchanging needs. Aegerter was responding to criticism summarized in the Committee of Inquiry (Clapp)report which accused the administration or college with preoccupation with new construction. The reportquoted one faculty wit who charged the administration with an, "edifice complex." The report said otherscomplained of college concentration with "bricks and mortar." Aegerter did not entirely disagree."Institution-wide," he said, "we may spend more time worrying about the quality of construction than thequality of instruction . . . . There is a tendency to deal with things like buildings rather than ideas." Buthe said he was "not sure whose fault that is." Aegerter estimated that Western's administration spentless time on construction plans than administrators at the other colleges at which he's worked. Heguessed that the facility fixation was more wide-spread and shared by the Board of Trustees. The deeper problem, Aegerter said, repeating a point made in the report, was that, "We don't have a clear image ofwhat Western should be." "Some at Western see the university as our model," Aegerter said. "Somelook backward at what Western was. Some look at liberal arts colleges as our ideal." "But I have asuspicion that Western should be creating its own model." Aegerter said Western's decade of growthhas made it a "new and unique" institution, "and I don't think we know what that means," He predictedthat earlier maturity on the part of students and the fact that they tend to be older when they graduatewould make the classroom lecture form of education increasingly obsolete as instruction moved off thecampus. Aegerter discounted the possibility that competition between building funds and faculty salaryraises had produced deep unrest among the faculty about new building. "Construction accounts for lessthan 10 per cent of the cost of educating a student," Aegerter said, and added that state budgetingmeans that any competition for funds is very indirect. He said that private and modern offices were bigattractions to faculty members. But he added, "As money for higher education gets harder and harder toget, indirect competition will increase." Despite state-wide economic upturns, Aegerter does not expectfinancial picture to rapidly There are too many other he said, competing for state Western's improve,concerns, resources. "It used to be education and highways that were the big concern. But not anymore. And we shouldn't be mad or sad. There are a lot of other problems." Again and again, Aegerterreturned t o the need for planning. "Comprehensive long-range planning at Western," he said, "has beenneither comprehensive nor long-range." Too much, he said, has been stopgap solutions, "to problemstwo years down the road." He talked of 20 year horizons. Aegerter predicted a slow-down in campusconstruction as learning programs were shifted off the campus. He proposed a radical program to make v future use of existing buildings. Under Aegerter's plan, the "mature" teenagers of tomorrow would cometo college at age 14 for three years of higher education in the liberal arts in the traditional collegecurriculum, making use of dormitories and classrooms. This would be followed by two or three years ofwork experience and that in turn would be followed by professional training, lasting anywhere from sixmonths to six years, in a professional career. Such a plan is not only radical in design, it is radical evento suggest it to a college currently blasting "innovation for innovations sake." But Aegerter is convincedthat after years of frantic growth, newly big colleges like Western need to pause and determine allpossible means of direction in the light of changing times. He mentioned a plan proposed inPennsylvania by another architect that the nation "take a year off" in 1976 and establish some goals foritself. Almost wistfully, Bob Aegerter suggested Western do the same, i fnsfde... Priorities in StudentHealth Service Budget problems limit the degree of treatment, but it's still a good buy. Seepg. 9.

He' likened the transition to easing into middle age. Our change to "life in the steady state," however, has hardly been graceful, he said. With the Clapp report,which detailed the reasons for the faculty's no-confidence vote against the president, less than a week inits semi-public place in the library, Flora turned his speech to what he considered the realities of highereducation. External forces have brought higher education to a new era, he said. By 1968 the "halcyon"years of growth had stopped. Student enrollment has now decreased, financial support has been reduced and the public has lost the confidence in higher education it once had, he said. Everyone wasconditioned to the 'up,' and no one thought faculty salary conditions of today could be so grave. Theadjustment to these conditions have been painful, he said, and the appointment of two faculty memberslast year "crystallized antagonism of great intensity." "Many continue to believe there are secret pockets of money," Flora said, but adjustment to the "reality of reduced support" is necessary. Flora said he willcontinue to try to convince Olympia that the small savings from budget cuts for higher education is the"epitome of false economy," but that the entire academic community must try to deal with the internalproblems of adjustment, including faculty tenure and promotion, with the attitude of doing what ispossible with limited resources. Western needs guidelines on how to reduce in some areas and allocatemore to other areas in order to give more security and direction. PATIENT LISTENERS-Members of thecollege community listen as President Flora talks about Western's transition. Another new trend in higher education Flora referred to is the loss of freedom for the individual institutions. The Council on HigherEducation, in making long-range plans for higher education in Washington, is by-passing the individualinstitutions. This means a loss of freedom for colleges and universities to plan their own futures, he said. More important than anything else is the strengthening of the student-faculty relationship, Flora said, and any innovations should strengthen this relationship. Flora described a good relationship between ateacher and student: the teacher is proud of and has the desire to communicate his knowledge and thestudent appreciates that knowledge and wants to know more. "No student should get through a classfeeling it was a soft touch," he said. Flora rejected the idea that student enrollment is decreasingbecause the quality of education is going down. He ascribed the decrease to external factors such asincreased fees and Evergreen College which draws students from Western. Flora stressed theimportance of letting the people of Washington know how good Western is. One way, he said, would beto rewrite that "dreadful document," the college catalog. Report publicity stirs unhappiness, concernUNHAPPY-George Gerhold, Senate chairman, said he was not pleased about the publicity of theCommittee of Inquiry (Clapp) Report nor, "the way the outside press got it." Flora possible candidate forpresidency of UW College President Charles J. Flora might not have been a man without a college if theBoard of Trustees had decided at its Dec. 7 meeting to request his resignation. Flora, subject of muchcontroversy at Western, and elsewhere, was named in a recent issue of Seattle's Argus magazine as apossible replacement for University of Washington president Charles Odegaard, who will resign beforethe beginning of Fall quarter. Flora's qualifications were examined in an article by Joel Connelly, whosaid the UW regents would "do well to consider the style of other college administrators who havesuccessfully coped" with academic, financial, student, f a c u l t y and community problems whenchoosing Odegaard's replacement. Connelly said Flora has "successfully mediated betweenconstituencies on the Bellingham campus, though his insistence on excellence in teaching has r a n k le d r e s e a r c h and reputation-conscious senior faculty members." He also praised Flora's " d i p l om a c y " in handling problems between the college and the Bellingham community and the fact that hehelped "pioneer the college-within a college concept"-Fairhaven, H u x l e y and E t h n ic Studies-which allow for more "student-teacher interaction." Flora, who was a biology teacher before he became an a d m i n i s t r a t o r , made his reputation as a "folk-hero teacher," Connelly said. Connelly concluded bysaying that Flora's selection is unlikely, in spite of his qualifications, because he has never heldadministrative authority on a "glamor campus, and selection committees tend to be snobbish about whoruns a 'rriUitivefsity:" v"'"'"' â€¢"'-' â€¢â€¢'~^^ by ALICE COLLING WOOD "There's been a lot of badpublicity raised about this college, some true and some false. Now we have to pick up the loose ends, tie them together and go forward in a positive direction." Those were the comments of AS Board ofDirectorsx Chairman Jim Kennedy in response to widespread publicity given the Committee of. Inquiry(Clapp) Report since its release to the library last week. The All-College Senate decided at its meetingJan. 8 to release the report, against the wishes of the Board of Trustees. Five copies of the report,detailing reasons for the faculty's no-confidence vote in College President Charles J. Flora last spring,were placed in the reserve room of the library, with the understanding that they were not to be released to the press. But the report was read by members of the press, and the stories written about it made many people unhappy. Senator Harvey Gelder of the Fairhaven faculty, who voted against release of thereport, said he is "concerned about the publicity given the whole thing by the newspapers." TrusteeRitajean Butterworth said she is "very disappointed" that the report received so much publicity, becausethe board had considered it a personnel matter and therefore not public. She said she was not speakingfor the board, but she did say the trustees had hoped people on the campus would be "dedicated enough to work toward solution of the problems" mentioned in the report. Mrs. Butterworth said board membersfelt they were "protecting the authors of the report, as well as the personality discussed" by asking thesenate not tojrelease the report. Kennedy said he wondered what the widespread publicity of the reportwould do to the "credibility of the senate with the Board of Trustees." Senate chairman George Gerholdthinks there was a strong desire on the part of the faculty, not just faculty senators, to have the reportreleased. He bases this assumption on the number of faculty members who talked to him and othersenators about it. But Gerhold said he is not pleased about the report's publicity or about the "ease withwhich members of the outside press got it." Although he is unhappy that people outside the collegecommunity saw the report, he does not blame the library for it. He said there was no directive to thelibrary to screen the press. "It was naive of some (of the senators) to assume that putting the report inthe library would keep it secret," Senator Phillip Montague of the philosophy department said. SenatorBrian Copenhaver of the general studies department said making the report "partially public was a face-saving move on the part of those who didn't want it exposed. It didn't reveal any secrets. There wasn't any information in it that people didn't already have." Copenhaver added that the report could have beencompiled by clipping old newspaper articles. Gerhold said the senate has not received any commentsdirectly from members of the Board of Trustees, and he doesn't anticipate the senate taking any furtheraction on release of the report, such as letting it out completely or removing it from the library. Montague said that as far as he can see, Flora has not been affected by the publicity given the report, except thathe is "not as visible now." He thinks if the charges in the report are widely known, Flora "may bemotivated to make sure they don't apply." But Kennedy\sdd he doesn't think the charges against Florajustified the "political animosity generated toward him." "I wish the president could have been spared allof this," Montague said. "I like him personally, but to a very large extent, I think he brought it on himself.Mrs. Butterworth wishes "the whole thing were over now. I think the (college) community should get tothe business it's there for and let Dr. Flora do his job." Winter enrollment declines 6 60 Enrollment forwinter quarter has been set at 8,224, a decline of 660 students from fall quarter. Registrar William''O'Neil said that 275 of the non-returning students received baccalaureate degrees. " I t appears that theproportion of full-time students is higher this quarter than it was last quarter," said O'Neil. He also saidthat the rate of enrollment decline shows a slight improvement over previous quarters. â€¢ â€¢'" ' ---------- Western Front - 1973 January 19 - Page 3 ---------- Friday, January 19;'1973 Western Front 3- Anti-war demonstrators hit streets for inauguration Tomorrowis Inauguration Day and demonstrations against President Nixon and the Indochina War will be held inWashington, D.C., as well as at the Westlake Mall in Seattle and at the Federal Building in Bellingham.

Early-release program for prisoners meets difficulties The proposedprisoner early-release program that would bring convicted felons to Western to live and attend classesappears to be bogged down in technicalities and opposition. Proposed to the Board of Trustees andthen to the All-College Senate by College President Charles Flora last fall quarter, the program has metinternal and external opposition, and technicalities outlined by the State Department of Social andHealth Services. Approval of the program last fall by the Board of Trustees and the senate paved the way for the setting up of a consortium between Western, Whatcom Community College and the BellinghamTechnical Institute. According to one student government official, who wished to remain anonymous, the consortium is having trouble entering into an agreement because of the public opposition to theprogram. The first step into bringing prisoners on campus was approval by the senate and the Board ofTrustees; that accomplished the next step is an agreement among the three schools. The third step isan agreement and practical implementation of the program between the consortium and the Department of Social and Health Services. Adamant in his defense of the program, President Flora said, "Early-release is nothing new in Whatcom county . . . (Sheriff) Bernie Reynolds knows it works." "It is a worthy concept to try on an expanded scale. In the current penology system the recidivism rate is very high,prisons are frequently training g r o u n d s . . . . It is difficult to think of anything good to say about thetraditional prison system." President Flora indicated the problem this year was one of funding andmeeting the provisions set up by the Department of Social and Health Services. He said that the early-release program would not be initiated until sometime after Spring quarter. President Flora commentedthat the program wasn't finished yet and said he hoped some definite plans would be forthcoming.Federal loan applicants face new restrictions February 1 Students who need federally insured loans forspring quarter should apply before change in the law governing the loans goes into effect Feb. 1. Thenew rules may make the loans harder to get for many students. The loan applications will also takelonger to process because of an additional form required by the new law, said Esperanza Brito, financialaids counselor. The new form asks for a ' ' u n i f o r m l y a p p l i ed determination of need" in the"best judgment" of the financial aids officer. This will call for m o r e investigation and interviewing by thefinancial aids officers. After the new law is in effect applications will take at least one week to process,as opposed to the one day now needed, Brito said. The Financial Aids office is in the process ofdeciding how to determine the need of each student fairly. It is possible that under the new rules, thestudent could claim that his parents do not contribute to his education. B u t a p r e d e t e r m i n edmathematical formula, such as the Parents Confidential Statement, would indicate that the parentscould contribute a percentage of their income. Brito said the Financial Aids office is trying to work out afair way of avoiding this while still complying with federal law. At least one bank will stop processing theloans on Feb. 1. Washington Mutual Savings Bank, one of the primary lenders under the program, willstop accepting the loan applications until all the details concerning the new law are straightened out,Brito added. Applications for federally insured loans can be picked up at the Financial Aids office, OldMain 103. Rents now unrestricted Landlords can legally raise rent rates as high as they want now thatthe federal controls on wages and prices have been lifted. The removal of price g u i d e l i n e s andceilings announced by the Nixon administration this week leaves "no mandatory restrictions" on rentincreases. However, "landlords are expected to exercise restraint", according to Bernice Landry, PublicAffairs Officer for the Internal Revenue Office's Seattle district. Previous actions had lifted the controls for those landlords who own four or fewer units, or about 70 per cent of the nation's home and apartmentowners. The remaining 30 per cent are now free of any government restrictions. The government iscontinuing to monitor rent rates "on a spot-check basis" and could reinstate rent controls "at any time"if landlords oegin raising rents at alarming or inflationary rates, Landry added. Landry said that theInternal Revenue Service does not know of any legal recourse against excessive rent hikes that couldbe taken by tenants, but indicated that the government is not expecting extreme rent increases as aresult of the removal, of restrictions.

Laurel oil spill could be taste of things tocome "This spill is just a forerunner of things to come," according to a Department of Ecology (DOE)official at the site of the Laurel oil spill, five miles northeast of Bellingham. A break in an oil pipeline Jan. 10 spewed oil up to two feet deep along a ditch, through a swamp and into two ponds on farms. Thepipeline, constructed in 1954, is operated by TransMountain Oil Pipeline Corp. An unofficial estimate of 500,000 to one million gallons of oil was given by the DOE official. About 400,000 gallons have beenpumped out of the ponds as of Wednesday. TransMountain had not yet received results of tests on thepipe to determine the cause of the break. According to Stan Springer of the DOE, the break was, mostlikely, the result of flaws in the metal or the weld. According to Springer, the recovered oil is being takento refineries to separate impurities for re-use. A DOE geologist checked the site Wednesday and saidthere is little danger of ground water contamination. Efforts are being made to keep oil from reachingPuget Sound via the drainage system. Walt Hitchcock, of the DOE is in charge of clean-up operations.He said that pipeline spills are becoming a more frequent occurrence because many pipelines aregetting too old. Hitchcock feels that this will become a real problem as more pipelines are built, and willdwarf the tanker spills in importance. Cost of clean-up will probably exceed $ 1 million. This figure doesnot include damages paid to farmers.s The DOE must be satisfied with TransMountain's clean-up or itcan finish the job at the company's expense. State law requires that the land affected must be restored. The DOE will not monitor the site for ecological consequences. The department has no research staff.A group of Huxley students are looking into the feasibility of a long-term project to determine theenvironmental effects of the oil spill. According to Huxley, little is known of the effects of oil spills onland. do/nhed/ 10 MISC. FOR SALE Hand printing presses. 5x8 - $35.00. 9x13 - $75.00. Type withcases.

The final day for filing is Thursday, Jan. 25, and the election is Jan. 31. The secretary-treasurer (position 3) and threeat-large members (positions 7, 8, 9) will be elected. They would serve through fall quarter. The membersat large to be elected will have few specified duties, since they will not serve on any of the AS councils.At a later date, however, one of the newly elected directors may serve on the Publications Council, saidRebecca Harris, vice-chairman of the board. Secretary-treasurer is the only paid position to be filled now. The at-large positions to be filled during this election demand little of the student's time, Harris said. The persons elected would meet with the board twice a month for about one and a half hours and perhapsspend about an hour before hand studying the agenda, she said. If the student has an individual project to carry out, however, he could then spend an unlimited amount of time at the job, she said. The duties ofthe AS board are to manage the affairs, the funds and the property of the Associated Students. Theboard has defegated much of the management to special councils, such as the Activities Council. Amember of the board sits on each council. As mentioned above, however, no member elected this month will sit on a council, with the possible exception of the student Publications Council. To be eligible torun for the available positions a 2.0 grade point average is required. For a student to have his nameplaced on the ballot he must have 25 signatures of AS members on a petition, and he must make a $10damage deposit to cover possible damage to the campus grounds during the campaign. The time of thecampaign will be limited, the dates to be announced later by the board. Also limited is the amount thecandidates may spend on their campaigns. The secretary-treasurer candidates may spend up to $25,and the at-large candidates may spend up to $15. Rebecca Harris said that being in student government "can be an ego trip," but that a student can also benefit greatly by taking an office. She said it is a goodtraining m management, a good addition to a job resume and good experience in conceiving a project and carrying it out. Extensive regulations govern campus residents Water beds are not permitted in college housing, and dogs are not permitted anywhere on campus unless they are under the immediate controlof their owners. So state two of the rules included in a 44-page document containing regulationsgoverning the campus community. The document was accepted by the Board of Trustees in November.Though the rules are basically those which the college has operated under in the past, the State HigherEducation Administrative Procedures Act, passed in the 1971 session of the state legislature, requiresthat they be collected in a uniform written document. The section which forbids water beds in collegehousing also outlines regulations regarding application, deposits, rents and rights. The college reservesthe right to enter any room or apartment to make repairs or where there are "reasonable grounds tobelieve that a condition exists which may threaten the health, safety or welfare of persons or propertywithin the building." Occupants of college housing may be evicted for having pets (with the exception ofaquarium life), making additions or alterations without writtern permission of the housing office, usingcooking equipment in residence halls or failing to pay housing charges. Landlords can be refused orrevoked from a list of off-campus housing maintained by the director of housing and the AssociatedStudents' housing commissioner if they refuse to sign non-discrimination pledges; commit or permitunfair, illegitimate, unethical or unsafe practices; or refuse to admit members of the housing commissionto vacant rental units for purposes of inspection. For those who are not in the habit of reading the dailybulletin, a rule under a chapter on general conduct offers a warning. It states that all members of thecollege community are expected to consult the bulletin on the date of its publication. Those identified byname or class "shall be deemed officially notified." Smokers are warned under another section. Smoking is prohibited in any building on campus except in areas designated by the college president, in facultyand administrative offices at the discretion of the individual in charge of each office and in seminar roomsif a faculty member is present and "adequate ashtrays are available." Parents may be consultedregarding records of minor students if the college considers it to be in the best interests of the students,according to a section under a chapter on access to public records. Public records are defined as anythe college is required by law to keep. These include such things as regulations governing the college,budget and financial procedures, catalogs and other college publications, contracts and deeds and thenames, addresses and phone numbers of students and' employees. Nonpublic records includedepartmental records; records maintained by counselors, the placement office, the admissions andregistrar's offices and the dean of students' office; and information relating to disciplinary action.againststudents. Most of this information can be obtained by written request through proper channels. Thecollege "reserves the right" to release information to governmental officials "when in the opinion of thePresident a clear and imminent danger of life or property exists." The registrar may prepare reports for the Selective Service, Social Security and Veterans' Administration. Students have the right to view theirofficial records and may file in any but academic records addendums regarding information they think isinadequately or inaccurately presented. Academic records may be corrected only by action of theregistrar. Prospective student teachers, interns urged to attend session Students expecting to enterclinical programs or student teach during the next academic year may wish to remember Jan. . 22through 25. On these days, placement on location, quarter, and kind of teaching for the 1973-74 schoolyear will be discussed. On Jan. 22 and 24 at 4 p.m. and Jan. 23 and 25 at 3 p.m., Students are urged to attend large group question-and-answer sessions in Lecture Hall 4. Individual appointments can also be arranged by signing up in Miller Hall 206. The following week, professors from Bellingham, Everett,Seattle, Auburn, and Kent will be present to all students interested in those areas. According to LarrySwift, associate professor in education, each student interested must attend-but need only to attendone of the meetings. Information is now available for personal 10-page brochures prior to the meetingsand can be obtained at the Student Teaching Office, Miller Hall 206. Interest on student co-op reservefund used for grants, scholarship Interest from student co-op bookstore reserve funds totalling $170,000will be available as grants and scholarships pending decisions from the financial aids office and the Co-Op Bookstore. The revenue amounts to about $10,000 annually. The money is subject to existingfederal laws concerning scholarships, according to Dick Coward, director of financial aid at Western. Hesaid, "Scholarships are designed to meet the needs of the worthiest students first, the criteria beingfinancial need and academic records." The Bookstore Council will meet next week to iron out furtherdetails. ---------- Western Front - 1973 January 19 - Page 5 ---------- Friday/January 19, .1973 Western Front the _ western front editorials INAUGURATION DAY, 1973Nixon's the one again Those famous "four more years" start tomorrow. Richard Milhaus Nixonâ€”whofour years ago said that any president who could not achieve peace in four years should not be givenanother chanceâ€”begins his second chance tomorrow. Nixon has often said that he hopes to go downin history as a peacemaker but it is difficult to discern whether that means Nixon is genuinely interestedin peace or whether he is simply interested in his own appearance in the history books. What Nixonplans to do with his next four years is still a matter of conjecture. But one can gain at least a vague ideaof what Nixonism holds in store by examining a few developments that have occurred since the November election. First of all, a president who insists that he wants to be remembered as a peacemaker hasinitiated the most severe bombing attacks the world has ever seen. Secondly, a president who insists hecares about "the little guy" has announced cutbacks in the domestic fight against poverty. Thirdly, thepresident continues to give lip service to "freedom" while a Nixon-stocked Supreme Court ordersnewsmen jailed for withholding information. What has happened in the past two months is probably onlya small indication of what the president has planned for us in the next four years. Armed with hislandslide election victory, Nixon feels he has the "green light" to run this country exactly as he sees fit.In short, we have a dangerous situation here. Nixon is at the helm for four more yearsâ€”now more solidly than everâ€”and he doesn't even have his reelection to worry about anymore. One thing's perfectly clear,however. If Nixon's second four years are anything like the firstâ€”and there is no immediate reason toexpect improvement-it's going to be one long time before any history book tries to label him apeacemaker. the _ western front staff EDITORIAL PHONE 676-3161 ADVERTISING PHONE 676-3160EDITOR: Jack Broom MANAGING EDITOR: Rodger Painter PRODUCTION: Duff Wilson SPORTS:Howard Scott COPY EDITORS: James Heitzman, Rahn Lahti, Dennis Mansker, Judy Mooers, DennisRitchie AD MANAGER: Richard Roff GRAPHICS: Elsi Vassdal BUSINESS MANAGER: Terri WhitneyPHOTO EDITOR: Robert Neale PHOTOGRAPHERS: Bob McLauchlan, Thomas Schultz, Jim ThomsonREPORTERS: Christine Anderson, Scott Anderson, Rob Baldwin, Alan Bauer, John Brewington, JimBrooks, Sonja Brown, Doug Cockbum, Alice Collingwood, Bill Dietrich, Nicholas Gardner, VictoriaHamilton, John Harris, Bruce Hayes, Rochelle Henderson, Heidi Henken, Deborah Henry, Tom Home,O.K.

Warn UW about Flora Editor, Western Front: I call to your attention an article by Mr. JoelConnelly in the opinion magazine Argus, Jan. 7 edition. Connelly writes about potential successors toDr. Charles Odegaard, President of the University of Washington, who is resigning at the end of thisacademic year. He mentions four or five people he would favor for the position, among them KingmanBrewster of Yale University, Father Hesburgh of Notre Dame and late of the U.S. Civil RightsCommission, and Charles J. Flora, "the Northwest's answer to Father Hesburgh"! Connelly approvesFlora for his alleged success in college-city relations, in achieving excellence of education and thefurtherance of decentralization evidenced by the cluster colleges. He is, in short, a community "folk-hero." Connelly says Flora will p r o b a b l y not get the appointment because he does not have theprestige of a glamour appointment behind him. Just to be on the safe side, Western students who haveconcern for their University brethren would do well to write the U.W. Board of Trustees to let them knowthe real truth about the sinister Dr. Flora. â€¢ " Sincerely, John Southard Fairhaven College Critique,don't attack Editor, Western Front: With reference to Knowles' letter concerning the self-study program,surely it must yet be possible to critique an idea or program without the use of ridicule or sarcasm (e.g.the use of "groovy" to describe the program). An attack, no matter in what robes of righteousness it iecloaked, is still an attack and one of its most unfortunate consequences is that it invites an attack inreturn.

Organized by University Year for Action (UYA), a national program of studentvolunteers in full-time, community-service programs, the student speech therapists have provokedenthusiastic response from local schools. Eleven Western students are already working in eight schooldistricts in Whatcom, Skagit and Island counties. For their year of full-time work they receive 45 creditsfrom the speech department and $150 a month for living expenses. Sam Polen, Western's director forthe student program, said the volunteers work directly with school therapists. They do diagnostic testingon each elementary student / with a speech problem and create activities for therapy.

The use of senior citizen volunteers, to begin in . February if all goeswell, will be a first in the nation. Loren Webb, director of Western's speech and hearing clinic, estimated that at least 50 senior citizens have volunteered. The senior citizens will also be working with children, -, breaking tradition with the common practice of having people of that age group work only with theelderly. Under the Retired Senior Volunteer Program, a sub-unit " of UYA, senior citizens are paid fortransportation and one meal a day. The volunteers will do everything from clerical Work to case studiesand will be required to do a minimum of two hours of work per week. The UYA experiment, an attemptto utilize the energy and knowledge of students and the elderly, seems to be proving a success, localdirector George Drake said.

In a public statement, Director John Biggs, Department of Ecology, said "The Department hascontinually monitored the situation for several months and has concluded that any benefits derived fromthe High Ross Dam would be so short-lived that the environmental damage the raising of the dam wouldcause would materially outweigh any advantages." The department's opposition is based on projectionswhich show that the dam construction would provide only an interim solution to Seattle City Light'senergy requirements. The project would not satisfy demand for more than five years, according to thedepartment of ecology. Biggs said that the situation points out the urgent need for a total state energypolicy. The department is seeking such a program. Citizen leaders from all levels of government as wellas environmentalists and industrial concerns would take part. The High Ross Dam proposal, submittedby Seattle City Light, would raise the height of the present dam 122^ feet to increase the power output of the dam. The proposed height increase would floor 5,200 acres of British Columbia's Upper SkagitRiver Valley. The B.C. Provincial Government is opposed to the project. Environmental groups such asthe Sierra Club and Friends of the Earth have opposed the project for over five years, and Wes Uhlman,mayor of Seattle and Governor Dan Evans have expressed opposition also. Social and religious functions ormon student center planr by RAHN LAHTI The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is movingahead with its plans to build a religious instruction and student center at 201 High St. near Western'scampus. "With the architectural squabble we went through with the board (Bellingham's Board ofAdjustment)," said DeLyle Southam, Institute of Religion director, "it was looking like the project mightbe delayed up to two years." The board had turned down the church's first request, comparing thebuilding's design to that of a "gas station." Church architect Merwyn Haneberg presented the board with slightly revised plans, and a permit to build the center was granted. "We're building next to thecollege," Southam said, "because the center is meant to balance the education of our college-agechurch members." The center will provide religious education, drawing ---------- Western Front - 1973 January 19 - Page 7 ---------- Friday, January 19, 1973 Western Front 7 jatre Guild-changing with the times said they are interested inshows from original scripts, pantomime and street theater. Membership in the Guild is automatic with the purchase of a season ticket-membership. The membership includes a season ticket to all Guild playsand voting rights when the Guild elects its officers and trustees Any member of the community, including students from Western, may contribute to the Guild* either by buying a membership or volunteering towork on any of their productions. The Guild provides an "outlet for creative talents" of Western students.Tavlor said. He also said that the Guild gets a lot of cooperation from other parts of the community,including the high schools. "People in theater work together," he â€¢ said. Although the Guild has beenhoused many places since 1929, including the auditorium of the Bellingham Normal School' (nowWestern) St. Paul's Episcopal Church on Walnut Street, and an old funeral parlor on the corner ofProspect and Flora, its permanent home is now a renovated Congregational Church building which theGuild purchased in 1947. The Guild is self-supporting. It survives on revenues from ticket sales andmemberships, and currently has the extra added income of rental money from Western, which has founditself with a shortage of stages due to campus construction. Now in rehearsal, the Guild is preparing topresent a Feb. 1-3 and 8-10 showing of "Winterset," a play by Maxwell Anderson. The production isunder the direction of Jim Walker, a newsman at KVOS television.

Decreased Western budgetproposed to legislature by Evans Sometime in the future, juniors and seniors attending state colleges inWashington may have their tuition payments increased by 600 per cent. A document issued by thestate's Council on Higher Education last November recommended a graduated tuition fee forWashington's college students. There is little chance that the proposal will be considered by this year'slegislature. However, the document reflects changing concepts of how higher education should befinanced. The council consists of professional educators and citizen members who makerecommendations to the l e g i s l a t u r e . The council suggested phased increases on an annualbasis of $300 to $350 for lowerclassmen, $990 to $1,080 for upperclassmen, and $1,170 to $1,380 forgraduate students. The council recommends that the state develop a system of grant and workopportunities for lowerclassmen. Long-term loans with a low-interest rate, along with work opportunities,would serve upperclassmen and graduates. Higher education funding patterns are changing across thenation, according to the document. The slowdown of enrollment growth, coupled with here next fall hefuture. All the project oopulation at Western to be from one to one-and-a-half per :ent of the 8,500 total."Right low," he said, "we have about 100 students active in our Masses, but there are more kids atWestern that would be interested in them. That's another reason why we're building the center next tothe school." The building, called a Ryan Phase I type, can and will be added to in the future. The first "s e c t i o n " will include a classroom, kitchen, library, lounge, two offices and a small recreation room.Southam said, "The second section will probably be built within two years, but the. last section will have to wait until we have enough demand (people) to require it." Southam, who has been sent here by theChurch of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in Salt Lake City to be the director of the institute, said,"Just so the taxpayers won't be worried, all of the money for the building and land is coming from thechurch in Salt Lake." Groundbreaking for the center will take place in early March with the proposedcompletion date set for summer, 1973.. shifting priorities in state government spending, are factorswhich are already causing changes in financing higher education. There have been changes at Western. Eight years ago the tuition was $85 a quarter. Now its $165. The Financial Aids Office estimates that1300 students are receiving financial aid (work-study, grants, loans) this year, 1600 have receivedfederally insured loans, as many as last year's entire total; there are 1200 part-time campus jobs filled,with 135 applications for openings. The figures overlap with one another. The Veterans Affairs Officeestimates that 900 to 1000 students are attending school under the GI Bill. The Off-CampusEmployment Service does not have figures, Seven interns get inside look at legislature Seven Westernstudents are presently participating in a first hand view of state politics this legislative session. They are Les Johnson, Stan Cuykensald, Susan Cole, Linda Kelley, Linford Cliff, Pete Scott and Craig Cole. Cole is not interning under the program but is working for Barney Goltz, freshman legislator, in a self-designed program. The internship program, headed by John Hebal, of the political science department,includes researching bills, maintaining correspondence with constituents and attending committeemeetings. The interns receive credit in the program and are required to do supplementary reading andtwo extensive term reports. Student selections were made by evaluating student character and gradepoint average. but says their office is quite busy. Michael W. Barnhart, executive assistant to President Flora, said that the council's proposal is "a case ofputting the cart before the horse." The council wasexpected to issue a plan on the long-range goals and objectives of higher education, he said. Instead ofreporting on the future aim of higher education, the council concentrated on finances. "I seriouslyquestion the whole approach," Barnhart said. "It's a sharp departure from the traditional way of financing .higher education. It asks .students to advertise their future earnings." Donald H. Cole, businessmanager for Western, said that he did not really like the whole approach. "I don't want to move from lowcost to high cost in terms of a student financing his higher education," Cole said. If such a concept isimplemented, Cole said access to higher education beyond the sophomore year would depend on thestudent's finances. Cole questioned why Washington should be a pioneer in this field. He emphasizedthat no action is expected on the council â€¢document during the present biennium. ---------- Western Front - 1973 January 19 - Page 8 ---------- 8 Western Front Friday, January 19, 1973 Typewriters, Adding Machines, Sales, Service, arid Rentals., business machines 14111 Commercial 734-3630 Hatcheries save fish from extinction Area lakesstocked with popular species Head flood Cliff's Notes help you think for yourself in literature.

To prevent freshwatergame fish species from being obliterated, the Department of Fisheries yearly restocks a number ofareas from its hatcheries. Two such hatcheries are located in the Bellingham area. One, used mostly for breeding varieties of trout is at Whatcom Falls Park near the north end of Lake Whatcom. The other,which collects freshwater salmon eggs and stocks Lake Whatcom with from four to five million smallsalmon per year lies at the south end of the lake on Brannion Creek. W a y n e T i d y m a n, s u p e r in t e n d a n t of the Bellingham Hatchery, said that from 10 to 15 million kokanee salmon eggs arecollected at the Brannion Creek hatchery each year between mid-October and December. The four or five million salmon put back into Lake Whatcom are hatched at Brannion Creek and planted at the mouthof the stream. When the kokanee, a variety of Sockeye, reach the age of four, their spawning instinctslead them back to where they were released. They are then caught and their eggs are removed to beEvans slices budget by $ 8 . 6 million Western cannot expect to receive more than $34 million for the1973-75 operating budget, Tim Kao, director of the controllers office, said.

When the pea-sized eggs reach a certain stage of development-they are said to have"eyed" because the eyes of the fish can be seen through the outer membrane. After they have .reachedthis stage the eggs are siphoned out of the troughs into buckets of swirling water. The shock of beingspun around and colliding with other eggs kills the weaker ones. The dead eggs then turn white and canbe picked out and thrown away. Eggs that are not hatched on the spot are sent to other areas to behatched and planted in lakes.

Upcoming articles will explore freeclinics, emergency services and women's clinics. by BENNO STECKLER Some students do not realize that the degree of treatment the Student Health Service provides is not limitless. The health service islocated in Edens Hall and is open from 8 to 11 a.m. and from 1 to 4 p.m. weekdays. If a student comesdown with ailments such as influenza, upper D R . K E N N E TH JERNBERG-Director says he'soperating at 35 per cent of the recommended budget. r e s p i r a t o r y afflictions, b r o n c h i t i s ,pneumonia, gonorrhea or the common cold, the health service can treat him. Other ailments treated bythe health service , include urinary infections, sprains and simple fractures such as fingers and toes,minor lacerations, anxiety, " s h i n g l e s " and other ' ' m e n t a l - p h y s i c a l complications." Inthe last case the health service works jointly with the Student Counseling Service. All treatment isconfidential in both clinics. Opinions of students who have received treatment at . Western's clinic arevaried. They range from "I've got no complaints" to "They don't do anything but put a thermometer inyour mouth." The cases that are referred out by the health service generally run up a bill. If a student isinsured, the debts will be paid. Otherwise, the costs are the responsibility of the student. The extent towhich the clinic can provide treatment is determined by the budget*Dr. Kenneth Jernberg, director of the health service, said, "We are currently operating on 35 per cent of the recommended budget." It is from this economic standpoint that Dr. Jernberg has developed the present system of health care. TheSupplementary Student Health Plan, an insurance policy ($13.85 per quarter), was designed to coverstudents with conditions, that need treatment outside the health clinic's range. Similar programs exist at Harvard and Colorado State. Under the plan a student must first go to the health service for initialdiagnosis. In most cases treatment and prescriptions will be handled at the clinic. If the ailmentwarrants further treatment the student is WAITING ROOM BLUES-'Tve been here for four hours" is carved on one of the desks. referred to specialist, an emergency clinic or a hospital with the proper facilities. If the student has taken out an insurance policy, most of his bills will be paid. "Some people are notmature enough to come to grips with their health needs. Three years ago nearly one-third of the studentbody did not carry any, type of health insurance," said Dr. Jernberg. The cost of setting a broken bone,hospitalization, surgeon's fees and blood transfusions mount up in a hurry, he added. Some 300 morestudents than last year at this time have1 sought medical treatment at the health" service. This may bethe reason for the "long wait" that some students complain of. "I've been here for four hours" is carvedon one of the desks in the waiting room. In addition to Dr. Jernberg, two doctors and five nurses staff the health service. The need for another doctor and possibly more nurses is one of the problems that Dr.Jernberg presently faces. Next year's budget will determine what changes will be' made at the clinic.Speaking in a philosophical tone Dr. Jernberg commented on improvements needed at the StudentHealth Service. "You never quite get everything you can use in a field such as this, and the presenthealth service needs some improvements. If more people would give more priority to health care ratherthan assuming good health, I'm sure some major changes would be made," he said.

The legislation, House Bill 88, also would prevent newsmen,editors, or publishers from being charged with contempt of court for refusing to reveal their sources ofnews information. The bill has been referred to the Committee on Judiciary of t h e State House ofRepresentatives. Rep. H. A. "Barney" Goltz, Democrat from the 42nd district and Western's CampusPlanner, is one co-sponsor of the bill. Goltz feels that recent events such as the jailing of newsmen inCalifornia and New Jersey for refusing to reveal their sources have led directly to the need for moreprotection for members of the press. "A free press is so essential to the success of a democratic statethat tampering with it is an attack on democracy itself," Goltz said. The proposed legislation, Goltzindicated, was only a partial remedy for problems that may arise on the state level comparable to thosealready being experienced on a national level. "It is our deepest hope that our legislative efforts mayeffect at least a partial solution to what is becoming an increasingly apparent problem of attempts tomanage the press," Goltz said. A copy of the proposed legislation has been sent by Goltz to membersof the media in Whatcom County with a request for advice and consultation from the people who will beaffected the most by it. College editor removed for violating administration policy The editor of the"Viking News" the college newspaper at Ocean County College in Tomsriver, N. J., was removed fromhis post after a college judicial board found him guilty of violating editorial policy set down by the college administration. The judicial board objected to a full page picture of Santa Claus with his middle fingerupraised, and a column of the "Doctor's Bag," contained in the Dec. 18 edition of the "Viking News."The "Doctor's Bag" is a column nationally syndicated by College Press Service (CPS) in which Dr.Arnold Werner answers students' questions about sex, drugs, health and other subjects of interest. The judicial board found the Santa Claus photograph and the "Doctor's Bag" column to be beyond theaccepted standards of "decency" of the college and the community, according to a CPS story. Theeditor, Gregory B. Edgecomb, was also found guilty of violating the college's procedure by not submitting the copy for the Dec. 18 issue to a faculty adviser prior to publication. Edgecomb is protesting hisremoval, and the local chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union has decided to handle Edgecomb'sappeal and take his case to court. CPS has protested the removal of Edgecomb to the O c e a nCounty College administration, calling his dismissal a case of unwarranted and illegal censorship, andan infringement on the freedom of the presss.

SOCcoach Bill Holmes is also expected to start Rod Peterson and a 6-5 freshman center, Ken Lumsden.Tomorrow night, Oregon Tech brings one of its strongest teams in years to Western. The Owls won a10-4 record this year and appear to be contenders in both Evco and NAIA District II. Elvin Brock, a 6-8junior college transfer, will give the Owls plenty of height in the middle. He will be helped by returningguards Dave Carrigan and Phil Scher and forwards Bob Drake and Doug Vigneau.

GO IN, BALL-Western's Mike Buza (40) and Tom Mount (20) make a fervent plea tothe basketball to drop through for two more points in the Viks' 102-77 victory over St. Martin's, Tuesday.Making just as passionate an appeal for it to miss are the Saints' Neil Martin (33) and Doug Pierce (51).The Vikings will re-enter Evergreen Conference action this weekend against Southern Oregon and Oregon Tech, both games in Carver Gym. Bang! Vik cagers blitz Saints 102-77 by O. K. JOHNSONDeadlocked 41-41 at the half, Western exploded for 61 points in the second period to stun St. Martin's102-77 Tuesday night in Carver Gym. Playing tight defense for the first three minutes and forcing theSaints into costly turnovers, the Vikings spurted to a quick 8-0 lead with Mike Franza, Mike Buza, TomMount and Dick Bissell each hitting for two points. The Saints went to their inside men, Ron Sheets and Neil Martin to get the Northwest's number two ranked team into gear. St. Martin's slowly crept up onthe Big Blue with Sheets and Martin supplying most of the firepower to tie the contest 41-41 at the half.The Saints took the lead for the only time in the game on guard Tom Feratto's 15-foot jumper to start the half. Feratto's shot brought the crowd to its feet and Western responded in convincing fashon withFranza, Buza, Mount and Chuck Price pushing the Vikings to a 12-point lead, 55-43 with 15:05 eft toplay.- Franza kept burning the Saint defense for driving lay-ins and Buza kept hitting underneath as theBig Blue blitzed their way to a commancing 73-53 lead during the next seven minutes. St. Martin's went to their full court press but it only made matters worse for the Lacey quintet as Buza threw longdowncourt passes to Franza standing all alone under the basket. The Big Blue took their longest lead of the night after Bissell tipped in a missed Franza free throw to make the score 94-65 with just under four minutes remaining to play. Craig Nicholes cracked the century mark for the Vikings with a ten footjumper with 1:45 left to play. Fisher closed out the scoring on a pair of free throws that gave thedefending Evergreen Conference and District 1 champions their sixth win in 14 starts. Franza put inanother superior performance, tallying 36 points with eight assists and three rebounds. Perhaps hisfinest statistics of the game were his eight steals against the Saints back court men. Buza and Mountboth had exceptional nights also. Mount garnered 21 points, shooting over the SMC zone while Buzascored 19 points, four assists and six rebounds. Feratto led the Saints with 22 counters while Martinand Sheets had 16 and 15 points respectively. Western hosts Southern Oregon tonight and OregonTech tomorrow night as the Vikings resume Evco Play.

Of the seven, five are swimmers and two are divers.The team lost in its first two meets of the year, falling to the University of Puget Sound, and HighlineCommunity College, 67-38, and 82-28 respectively. With the season not appearing very bright, the team, under the direction of coach Don Wiseman, still seems to be hard-working, and spirited. The captain ofthis year's team is Ton Ward, a senior P.E. major. Ward's specialties are freestyle and butterfly sprints. The team has two other seniors competing this year, diver Robin Allen, former conference champion,and backstroke and freestyler, Bruce Johnson. Rounding out the team is Don Williams, sophomore,Paul Simmerly, freshman, Phil Coppenhaven, freshman, and Doug Brown, sophomore. The membersthemselves say they feel that the lack of people is not the only holdback this year. Though they workout every day, it was commented by one member that the lack of pool time hurts. While most opponentsare on the average of 10,000-12,000 yards a day, the Viks get only 3,500 yards in. The goal of the teamnow seems to be, sending as many men as possible .to the NAIA championship in March, at KansasState College, and to break over half of the existing school records.

Sport fronts Excitement plus... by HOWARDSCOTT Looking for some excitement this weekend? You don't have to go any farther than Carver Gym for all the sweaty-palmed thrills you can stand. Western's basketball team will host two EvergreenConference opponents this weekend. Despite the Vikings' unimpressive 6-8 season record, the Big Bluehas lost only one home game this year, and, as any basketball freak will tell you, Western at home is adifferent breed of Viking. There is something about the atmosphere around Carver Gym that supercharges not only the Vikings, but also the crowd. Maybe it's, the altitude of Sehome Hill, or it could be the rarefied air around Old Main, or it could even be the sweet scent of Bellingham Bay, but something makesballplayers and fans alike do strange things in Western's gym. For example, Tuesday night St. Martin'sCollege came to Western trying to beat the Vikings for the second time this season. The Saints hadstopped Western, 87-75, last month in Lacey and were looking for another easy win here. The win was acomplete team effort for the Big Blue, the offense got '61 points in the second half as the defense held the Saints to only 36. What surprised the Saints was the ease they had in catching Western 41-all in thehalf. Starting the second St. Martin's popped out to a two-point lead. Then Western turned on the CarverGym magic and blowing the game wide open. They weren't ready for the welcome Western extendedthem. The Saints left Bellingham that night with 77 points-and 12 pairs of self-destructed gym shoes-theVikings had rammed in 102 points. Backing the play of the Vikings was the roar of the crowd. Cheeringnot only Western's baskets and steals, but also the defensive switches and board play of the Big Blue,and putting up a solid wall of sound every time the Saints brought the ball down court. St. Martin's coachDick Kaufman tried to keep his team in the game with frequent stops of the clock to give his playersinstructions and hope that the superhot Viks would cool down. But when the Saints ran out of time outswith six minutes left in the game the Vikings and their crowd were just getting warmed up. Tonight theBig Blue and its crowd will be waiting for Southern Oregon College and tomorrow Oregon Tech venturesonto the Vikings' private preserve. The noise is loud, the action is tense and the excitement iscontagious so don't forget your nitroglycerine tablets when you're out looking for thrills this weekend. Just be glad you're on our side. â€¢â€¢â€¢.â€¢â€¢â€¢ gt; gt;. . . , , . . atmen host Central today Afterbattling the flu and injuries this week, Western's wrestlers face even a tougher foe t o d a y whenCentral's powerhouse Wildcats invade Carver Gym at 2:30 p.m. The Wildcat team is strong, tough and'experienced and has placed in the top 10 of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA)tournament for the last eight years. Two years ago the Ellensburg team captured the nationalchampionship and last year they placed fourth. Bellingham fans will get a chance to see formerBellingham High School wrestling great Greg Gowens. Gowens was state high school runner-up in 1970, won the state title in 1971, was national AAU champ during his senior year and Evergreen Conference142-pound champ last season. Western's Mark Sencenbaugh will be meeting Gowens. Sencenbaugh is still battling the flu, but according to coach Rick Iverson, "wants to wrestle against Central very much."In previous meetings between the two, Gowens has defeated Sencenbaugh handily. The 126-poundmatch between Admiral Flunder of the Vikings and Central's John Reichart promises to be a real crowdpleaser. Flunder captured a 9-7 decision over Reichart at the Cheney tournament earlier this season.However, since that time, Reichart has had a very good season. When the 150-pound match betweenTom Tripple and Central's John Burkholder gets under way, 300 pounds of solid muscle will be on themat. Burkholder, a freshman, is a former state champion and state champion runner-up from OlympiaHigh School. He is going for the world weight lifting bench press record at his weight. "While we feelthat Tripple is the better wrestler, the crowd will have never seen a muscle like Burkholder," Iverson said. While the Vikings suffered a major setback at the 134 class when Karl Rush injured the cartilage in his knee this week, Central's Kit Shaw fared no better as he also damaged the cartilage in his knee. Rushis expected back by tournament time, but Shaw will miss the rest of the season. Dwight Mack, a starter all year along, will go against Central's 134 pounder. With the flue sidelining Mark Stroobrant, DaveHolte will make his' first varsity appearance at the 158 class. John Mosich at 167 is reported to belooking stronger every day, according to Iverson. In wrestle off action this week, Brett Bennett recorded a 4-2 decision over "B.J." Bill Jones to earn the starting berth today. "Hopefully by tournament time,either B.J. or Bennett will have scaled down to fill the 190 position," Iverson said. "Both men are thinkingabout it very seriously." Providing moral support for the Vikings are Dan Dailey and Mike Price. Dailey,out of Hoquiam High School, wrestled two years at Grays Harbor and one year at Washington State. An Oldie but Goodie.

Artist Morgan Delt (DavidWarner) collects gorilla trivia, looks somewhat like a gorilla, and even fantasizes himself as a gorillaswinging through the trees. This simian obsession becomes too much for Morgan's wife (VanessaRedgrave). She divorces him and takes up with Morgan's art dealer. One does not cross a gorilla, andone does not cross Morgan. Though immature- in emotions and intellect, Morgan is fully developedphysically and sexually, a man-child in an adult world. He is also a nut. Try as he might Morgan justcan't get his wife back. The world is for people, not gorillas. "Morgan!" directed by Karel Reisz. DavidWarner, Vanessa Redgrave, Robert Stephens. British, 1966. If you liked the book "Play It As It Lays,"you'll no doubt get along very well with the movie version, now playing at the Viking II. Joan Didion wrote the screenplay for her novel about life in Hollywood. Frank Perry ("Last Summer") directed the movie,starring Tuesday Weld and Anthony Perkins. It's a subtle and complex movie, not necessarily foreveryone. If the idea of listening to the "Concert for Bangladesh" over a little car speaker doesn't soundlike impiety then by all means catch the movie at the Moonlite Drive-In this weekend. The second feature is "The Culpepper Cattle Company." Other movies in town: Grand: "Ryan's Daughter." Mount Baker:"Wilderness Journey" and "Bigfoot." Viking I: "Jory" and "C. C. and Company." Feminist films seriesscheduled A series of feminist films will be presented later this month and in February by the WesternWomen's Commission. On Tuesday, Jan. 23, four films will be shown that examine the image of womenin advertising and the mass media. The films are: "Do Blondes Have More Fun," "Women's Images inAdvertising," "Make It," and "Sometimes I Wonder who I am." On Tuesday, Jan. 30, "Growing upFemale: As Six Becomes One" will be presented. It examines the social forces that shape the self-concept of women. On Tuesday, Feb. 13, the final film in the series will be shown. "The Women's Film" brings together women from different backgrounds, races and jobs to talk about their experiences.According to he Women's Commission, this film is considered by many to be the most moving film onwomen's liberation, even though it is somewhat dated. All the films will be shown at 7:30 p.m. in Lecture Hall 3. The Jan. 23 showing is free, but the two remaining showings will have an admission charge of 35 cents to cover expenses. However, for persons who cannot attend the evening presentations on Jan. 30 and Feb. 13, the films will be shown free of charge at 1:00 p.m. and 2:30, respectively, in the VikingUnion Lounge. Any of the films may be borrowed for private screenings during the time they are oncampus. Liz Faller of the Women's Commission has full details on the loan of the films.. Indian sitaristShankar to perform in Seattle Ravi Shankar, India's virtuoso of the sitar, will appear in concert at 8:30p.m. Feb. 9 at Paramount Northwest in Seattle. Accompanying Shankar will be Alia Rakha, a highlyrespected tabla drum plaver. Largely responsible for the surge in popularity of Indian music in theWestern world, Shankar has appeared twice before in Seattle. It took him seven and a half years ofpractice to become proficient on the Sitar, a long gourd-shaped guitar with seven principal strings andnineteen sympathetic strings, which can produce the resonances of an entire orchestra. Shankar,together with George Harrison, conceived the idea of a concert in Madison Square Garden to benefit the people of Bangladesh. The sellout concert and hosted numerous stars of the entertainment field. A filmwas made of the event. Tickets are available through Northwest Releasing. The agency's number inSeattle is: MA 44787.

As many as seven facultymembers and possibly one administrator from ethnic minority groups will be hired by the college thiscoming year. 5. A number of courses Which may have "tremendously valuable fallout effects" onWestern's teacher and general education programs will be added to the curriculum this fall, Thecourses, in general, deal with the culture and heritage of American e t h n i c minority groups. Inaddition, changes win be made in the freshman humanities course to include more Afro-Asia history.A curriculum committee also will investigate the possibility of making temporarily federallyfinancedprojects for disadvantaged students part of Western's permanent curricular offerings.

Saga is supposed to give firstconsideration to residence hall students, then hire off-campus students and finally hire noncollegepersons only if college students aren't available to work, Thomas said. Saga has been criticized for itshiring practices this summer by Thomas' commission. To strengthen the policy, Noel Bourasawmoved the BOC ask Saga to adopt a firm rule that applicants for employment Who are not Westernstudents not be hired until after all campus applications have been considered.

The college will admit about 24 disadvantaged students recruited through the SeattleMultioService center for fall quarter. Most were identified by members of the BSU as candidatesfor the program. Western will give financial assistance to many of them William T. Hatch, director offinancial aids, saia. With regard to the above three programs, normal admissions procedures havebeen waived for many of the disadvantaged students. In addition, paid tutors will help those withdeficiencies.

Third, the rezoning was not for the benefit of the public, but rather benefited oneindiVidual. Therefore, the rezoning act is "arbitrary" and thus void. The suit against the city was broughtby six neighbors of Sehome Manor and the Fifth Ward CitiZens' League. The attorney for the two groups is expected to ask Judge Hardin to sign a court decree which woold be the basis of any appeal on thedecision. The coort decision is expected to go to. the state Supreme Court. BOC discusses race,housing Western is making substantial progress on a program de~ signed "to meet its educationalresponsibilities to the disadvantaged," a top college administrator said this week. The administratoroutlined a. five-point progra.m Which the college hopes will offer disadvantaged persons moreopportunity to attend Western and provide Western students and faculty with greater contact withdisadvantaged elements of society. The program is regarded by many persons at Western as aresponse to the request for greater recognition of minority- group interests presented to PresidentCharles J. Flora bf the Black Students Union (BSU) May 14. The five points are: .1. The college isworking with studeÂ·nt groups - both on and off campus - to recruit disadvantaged students andencourage them to attend Western. 2. Western has arranged with the Fellowship of ConcernedUniversity Students (FOCUS) to accept three disadvantaged students for fall quarter. TheAssociated Students (AS) will pursue a policy of enc6ur;' aging non-discrimination in racial matters,AS President Noel Bourasaw told the Board of Cantrol Thursday. Bourasaw said he will meet with the state board against discrimination. He expressed disappointment at some negative responses toa recent KVOS-TV program on Which he appeared with four members of Western's Black StudentsUnion (BSU). Bourasaw and KVoS-TV's F. Duayne Trecker both agree the show "was informative,welldone and in good taste." BSU members who appeared wi th Bourasaw were Stanley George.Eugene SmHh..... Ken MadÂ· ison and Carl Trotter. John Moore, chairman of the AS housingcommittee, said the biggest hurdle to obtaining effective action with respectto offcampus housingproblems is student apathy. Moore said students must become involved and give their support toAS if they want to accomplish improved housing conditions.

First, Hardin said, the rezoning is contrary to the city's comprehensive plan, and where such aconnict exists the comprehensive plan must prevail. Second, he said, the city planning commissiondoes not possess legal power to grant a houses. In those cases, house mothers will still set thehours.

Turning out twice a day this week, Randall is gettin~ his squadin shape, and acquamting them with some new rules they will face on their six-week tour. They leaveAugust 3, from Seattle for Tokyo, and Play their first game August 5 in Taipei. Randall said they mustwin on the trip and that he will be using his basic,slow,deliberate style. "We fooled around in the spring with other offenses," he said, "bUt, if we are going to win. we have to use what we do best." The Vikswill be faced with wider foul lanes, Which handi~ caps the taller player, and a 30second time limit forshooting. There is no 10-second rule for getting the ball into front court however, so a pressing defenseis also at a disadvantage. A different rule for foul shooting is alsoininternational rules.

One Western student bOUght a house forabout$4,000ayearago. During the year he kept it, he spent aboot :ji3,500 and a certain amount of effortfor maintenance and improvements. He rented the upstairs unit for $80 per month, which paid hismonthly payments. He sold the house this spring for $11,000, earning a $3,500 profit after living in hisown home rent-free for a year. Not everybody can expect to do this well, of course. This particularstudent had experience in real estate through his father's business.

While this might be difficult for individual students, a group of four or five could pool reaSOurces and buy a house for a low down payment. Monthly payments would be considerably less thanrent for the same house, and if the stu. dent owners kept up the proper!}' , they could sell it after two orthree years for a profit, Ellis Massey, Bellingham realtor, says. For example, Massey said1 five students could PUt up $50u each to Pay $2,500 down on a house. If they kept it two years, they would splitmonthly payments of about $70 - in effect, paying rent of $14 per month plus utilities. Massey saidinvestment in real estate is worthwile because, by taking reasonable care of the house, students will atleast get their money back and could make a substantial profit. Long range maintainence, he pointedout, depends on the students. To be profitable, students should attend to more than the immediateneeds and repairs of their house.

He squirms and glances around, whileshe tries to focus his attention upon a set of buildingblocks. IMring the session the girl tries to teachthe boy the meaning of the term "on" by having him place the blocks on top of one another andrePeating the word "on" as he does so. This is speech therapy, in which children with various kinds ofspeech and hearing problems learn to communicate more effectively. Some of the 34 children in thissummer's program can barely converse at their normal level. Others have less serious prOblems, suchas a nasal voice or a voice of the wrong pitch. Various possible causes of de~ective SPeech are a cleftTuesday, July 30,1968 palate, mongolism and mental retardatlon. At the source of most difficulties ispoor articulation, according to sPeech therapy major JoAnn Youngquist. This, in turn, may becaused by a poor home model, psychological problems or hereditary causes. Each child in theprogram is paired with a speech therapy major who learns the profession by helping the child.Therapy service is provided free, thus helping many children whose parents may not otherwiseafford help for the child. This reporter observed a therapy session between Marsha Harris, a Westernsenior, and a s ix-year old boy we shall call Bob. Bob suffers from brain damage. He is extremelyactive, and he squirms and fidgets in a chair. His attention rapidly strays from object to object. Western Front 3 Miss Harris explained later that she sees one of her main tasks with the boy as that of of "environmental awareness." This means that he should learn to recognize and know the source of morephysical objects and sounds. One activity, in particular, is designed to stimulate this awareness.Miss Harris maniImlates a ,toy that makes various animal's sounds and the boy tries to identify theanimal by each sound. "Progress in sPeech therapy is often very slow, but one little bit of progress isvery reward. ing to the therapist," Miss Youngquist said. "It has helped me to really understand childrenthrough close Personal contact with them. I find the work very rewarding."

British children enter infantschool at the age of 4 junior school at 7 and senio: school at 12, Those who intend to work attend senior school for four years; those who will go on to college attend for six. There are three differentclasses at senior schools: secondary, grammar and high school. They are essentially equivalent, except grammar and high school offer more foreign language and are geared to the brighter students, As each student enters senior school, he receives a number rating describing his school year andability. Thus, a I-A student would be in his first year and have potential to do A work. These ratings arecalled streams. During his first three years in senior school, the student is grouped according to hisstream classification. Ideally, he competes only with others of the same general ability.Specialization begins after the third year, at which time students are grouped without regard toindividual ability. One obvious difference between English and American ~ie:h schools. Miss Burrellsays, IS transportation. i High school students do not drive to school, since they may not obtain drivers' licenses until they are 18. Since there are no school buses, students get to school on publictransport or on bycycles. . English students enjoy only SIX weeks of summer vacation. They also getthree weeks at Christmas and Easter. Miss Burrell believes the major weakness of America'seducational system is laxness due to a lack of respect for teachers. In England, students are taught respect immediately. Teachers demand it- sometimes with the help of the traditional cane. 1328Cornwall 1327 Cornwall Ave.. / 733-7081 I WE'RE NOT EXPENSIVE ..

Third, the rezoning was not for the benefit of the public, but rather benefited oneindiVidual. Therefore, the rezoning act is "arbitrary" and thus void. The suit against the city was broughtby six neighbors of Sehome Manor and the Fifth Ward CitiZens' League. The attorney for the two groups is expected to ask Judge Hardin to sign a court decree which woold be the basis of any appeal on thedecision.

BOC discusses race,housing Western is making substantial progress on a program de~ signed "to meet its educationalresponsibilities to the disadvantaged," a top college administrator said this week. The administratoroutlined a. five-point progra.m Which the college hopes will offer disadvantaged persons moreopportunity to attend Western and provide Western students and faculty with greater contact withdisadvantaged elements of society. The program is regarded by many persons at Western as aresponse to the request for greater recognition of minority- group interests presented to PresidentCharles J. Flora bf the Black Students Union (BSU) May 14. The five points are: .1. The college isworking with studeÂ·nt groups - both on and off campus - to recruit disadvantaged students andencourage them to attend Western. 2. Western has arranged with the Fellowship of ConcernedUniversity Students (FOCUS) to accept three disadvantaged students for fall quarter. TheAssociated Students (AS) will pursue a policy of enc6ur;' aging non-discrimination in racial matters,AS President Noel Bourasaw told the Board of Cantrol Thursday. Bourasaw said he will meet with the state board against discrimination. He expressed disappointment at some negative responses toa recent KVOS-TV program on Which he appeared with four members of Western's Black StudentsUnion (BSU). Bourasaw and KVoS-TV's F. Duayne Trecker both agree the show "was informative,welldone and in good taste." BSU members who appeared wi th Bourasaw were Stanley George.Eugene SmHh..... Ken MadÂ· ison and Carl Trotter. John Moore, chairman of the AS housingcommittee, said the biggest hurdle to obtaining effective action with respectto offcampus housingproblems is student apathy.

First, Hardin said, the rezoning is contrary to the city's comprehensive plan, and where such aconnict exists the comprehensive plan must prevail. Second, he said, the city planning commissiondoes not possess legal power to grant a houses. In those cases, house mothers will still set thehours.

While this might be difficult for individual students, a group of four or five could pool reaSOurces and buy a house for a low down payment. Monthly payments would be considerably less thanrent for the same house, and if the stu. dent owners kept up the proper!}' , they could sell it after two orthree years for a profit, Ellis Massey, Bellingham realtor, says. For example, Massey said1 five students could PUt up $50u each to Pay $2,500 down on a house. If they kept it two years, they would splitmonthly payments of about $70 - in effect, paying rent of $14 per month plus utilities. Massey saidinvestment in real estate is worthwile because, by taking reasonable care of the house, students will atleast get their money back and could make a substantial profit. Long range maintainence, he pointedout, depends on the students. To be profitable, students should attend to more than the immediateneeds and repairs of their house.

Your right to occupy the unit between school terms should be understood. When rent is paid by the quarter, holiday periods may be extra. 5. Understandcompletely your rental agreement. If changes or improvements to the house are to be made, be sure you have this in writing. Be certain you get a copy of anything you sign.

He squirms and glances around, whileshe tries to focus his attention upon a set of buildingblocks. IMring the session the girl tries to teachthe boy the meaning of the term "on" by having him place the blocks on top of one another andrePeating the word "on" as he does so. This is speech therapy, in which children with various kinds ofspeech and hearing problems learn to communicate more effectively. Some of the 34 children in thissummer's program can barely converse at their normal level. Others have less serious prOblems, suchas a nasal voice or a voice of the wrong pitch. Various possible causes of de~ective SPeech are a cleftTuesday, July 30,1968 palate, mongolism and mental retardatlon. At the source of most difficulties ispoor articulation, according to sPeech therapy major JoAnn Youngquist. This, in turn, may becaused by a poor home model, psychological problems or hereditary causes. Each child in theprogram is paired with a speech therapy major who learns the profession by helping the child.Therapy service is provided free, thus helping many children whose parents may not otherwiseafford help for the child. This reporter observed a therapy session between Marsha Harris, a Westernsenior, and a s ix-year old boy we shall call Bob. Bob suffers from brain damage. He is extremelyactive, and he squirms and fidgets in a chair. His attention rapidly strays from object to object. Western Front 3 Miss Harris explained later that she sees one of her main tasks with the boy as that of of "environmental awareness." This means that he should learn to recognize and know the source of morephysical objects and sounds. One activity, in particular, is designed to stimulate this awareness.Miss Harris maniImlates a ,toy that makes various animal's sounds and the boy tries to identify theanimal by each sound. "Progress in sPeech therapy is often very slow, but one little bit of progress isvery reward. ing to the therapist," Miss Youngquist said. "It has helped me to really understand childrenthrough close Personal contact with them. I find the work very rewarding." And likewise, apparently, do many other Western sPeech therapy majors. presents un from " - 4C, daisies for your roomSponsors are' Students for Peace in Vietnam and the Draft Resisters' League.

The reason is graduate students, acting Chief SecurityOfficer D. Maconaghie said. lliring the summer many teachers return to school.They do not find the transition from teacher to student an easy one, at least where parking their cars isconcerned, he said. "Instinctively they park in the faculty lot, and it seems to take about two to threeweeks to change these habits," Maconaghie said. Returning teachers who become students for the summer usually say, "I did not give it a second thought, I just pulled into the faculty parking lot." Thesecurity office understands this problem and much leniency is shown during the first weeks of summer quarter. "About 75 per cent ofthe tick.. ets are forgiven during the first week," Maconaghie said.Approximately 1,000 tickets were written during the six week summer quarter, according to IMaconaghie.

However, many schools are moving away from the grammaremphasis, he said. The English class used to be a mixing bowl because it was a required course, hesaid.

British children enter infantschool at the age of 4 junior school at 7 and senio: school at 12, Those who intend to work attend senior school for four years; those who will go on to college attend for six. There are three differentclasses at senior schools: secondary, grammar and high school. They are essentially equivalent, except grammar and high school offer more foreign language and are geared to the brighter students, As each student enters senior school, he receives a number rating describing his school year andability. Thus, a I-A student would be in his first year and have potential to do A work. These ratings arecalled streams. During his first three years in senior school, the student is grouped according to hisstream classification. Ideally, he competes only with others of the same general ability.Specialization begins after the third year, at which time students are grouped without regard toindividual ability. One obvious difference between English and American ~ie:h schools. Miss Burrellsays, IS transportation. i High school students do not drive to school, since they may not obtain drivers' licenses until they are 18. Since there are no school buses, students get to school on publictransport or on bycycles. . English students enjoy only SIX weeks of summer vacation. They also getthree weeks at Christmas and Easter. Miss Burrell believes the major weakness of America'seducational system is laxness due to a lack of respect for teachers.

James Talbot "enchanted" with Western by SUEMEYERS As chairman of the geology department at the University of Montana, James Talbot decided to take a position as acting Academic Vice President of the school last year with "no strings attached."After 20 years as a faculty member or instructor in higher education, he decided administration work wasnot bad at all. In fact, it was really very interesting. He applied for similar jobs at three institutions andnow James Talbot is Vice President for Academic Affairs at Western. Talbot is "enchanted" withWestern. He is attracted by the strong geology program and also the cluster college concept, which hesaid is unusual for a small state college. "It shows that people at Western have vision. Where else doyou get a Viking II, Western's experimental car. Really, it is almost crazy to have an experimentalprogram like that in a small college. I find it attractive." The RIF (Reduction In Force) problemconcerned Talbot when first looking at the Western job, but he sees the college as having "moved outof the state of mind, or war, of RIF." Talbot did not want to cite any major problems he sees at Westernbecause it is premature, it "sets in concrete" what are initial observations, and "people would getparanoid." He would rather assemble a perspective by listening to the major concerns of people oncampus. He did say the governance system of the institution is "unbelievable." "With 56 committees,how any faculty member can have any say is ridiculous." /eed a massage?

According to Talbot, it is difficult to reach agreement on fundamental issues when all groups areacting independently. It is ineffective. "When it is mentioned that the charges of the library committeeshould be changed so they might meet, it is time to reconsider the system." He would like to see thecollege governance system determine its priorities and goals and develop a program and system aroundit. What about student government? "They are the more political ones," he said. He would like to meetwith student government members on a regular basis to discuss Western's academic matters and betterdefine the issues. It is much better to ask questions than to feed rumors, he said. He would like to seethe college become more involved in continuing education and work with other educational institutions inthe region to develop a total education program. Higher education enrollments will be going down againaround 1980, Talbot said, and he would like to see Western prepared for the drop by defining areas ofexcellence on campus that can be further developed. Talbot was born in Surrey, England, in 1932. Hereceived his undergraduate degree from the University of Cambridge, his master's from the University ofCalifornia at Berkeley, and his Ph.D. at the University of Adelaide in south Australia. Geology is his "life-time passion," and occupies all his time out-doors. His latest interest is in writing geological histories forthe general public. This may be considered an editorial comment, but, to sum up Western's new VicePresident for Academic Affairs in my terms â€” He's neat! The All-College Senate will not hold itsscheduled meeting Aug. 2. â€¢tar o Â«o lt;- oH Â»i CD JAMES TALBOT SCC to fight for counsel by SUE MEYERS Washington state college students soon will have the question of whether they areentitled to legal counsel settled once and for all. At a recent meeting in Seattle, the state collegecouncil, (S.C.C.) voted unanimously to file suit against Washington State Attorney General SladeGorton on the "right to counsel" issue. The SCC, a corporation composed of state college anduniversity student representatives, will file their suit in the Washington State Supreme Court Monday,Aug. 2. The decision to file suit follows months of legal research stemming from a conflict on theEastern Washington State College campus. The Eastern administration has used student services andactivities fees to pay off bond indebtedness on an academic building which is considered an illegal useof funds. When the A.S.E.W.S.C. pursued the issue, they asked the State Attorney General's officeto appoint special counsel to represent the students on the case. They were refused. According to JerryHowe, associated students president at Eastern, "We're tired of getting the run around. We want theright to hire our own counsel to represent us." Since the A.S. and the administration are consideredarms of the state, it is illegal for either body to hire a private lawyer with state monies. Assistant attorney generals are established on each state campus to provide the needed legal counsel for the school. Upto this point, it has been at the discretion of each attorney general to determine his responsibility tohis institution and there have been conflicting opinions on whether this obligation includes providingstudents with legal counsel. "It is an issue that effects every student in this state," is the reason givenby S.C.C. Chairperson Rolland Lewis, for filing suit. Lewis is also A.S. president at Washington StateUniversity. The S.C.C. has called a press conference at the University of Washington Monday, Aug. 2,at 10 a.m. to "express the concerns of the students across the state." ---------- Western Front - 1976 July 29 - Page 2 ---------- 2 Western Front Thursday, July 29, 1976 The medium is the massage by RICK STERN MarthaRosenthal is a local masseuse and therapist who conducts seminars in which the participants practiceon each other. Her specialty is reflexology and polarity balancing. Reflexology is a massage techniquethat works on the nerve endings in the feet and hands to eliminate blocks in the central nervous system.Polarity balancing is a Western adaptation of Ayurvedic (Hindu) medicine and Tantric (Tibetan) yoga tofree the body of "chakric" blocks and to correct physiological imbalances. Martha has worked as anelementary school teacher. Cheryl Hockett is a masseuse at the Fairhaven Massage Therapy Center.Her emphasis is connective tissue and pressure point massage. Connective tissue massage stimulatesthe circulatory system; pressure point massage involves holding at acupunture points to releaseenergy through the autonomic nervous system. Another teacher drop-out, Ron Hogan is the residentpolarity therapist and reflexologist at the Acadia Health Center in Seattle. Andrew Stoeve, reflexologist,will service the feet for as little as $2 per hour â€” if he likes the feet. Gretchen works at Scandia indowntown Bellingham. -Her specialty is Swedish massage, which involves tapping and kneading of themajor muscles, and efflourage, a flowing outward from a point. The Swedish is likely to be standard atany of the dozens of roadside massage parlors. Attractive Gretchen, dressed in seductive street clothing, will administer a wholesome one-half hour massage for about the price of a week's rent of a dumpystudent room (if you take the "student discount"). This is accompanied by a lonely sauna, shower andwhirlpool bath. Despite the illicit reputation of the roadside "Turkish massage parlor," any massage cantone muscles, stimulate nerves or be relaxing. All of the massage techniques and therapies involveintimate, hands-on contact of a person with another person's body. If you seek a new way to a beautifuland healthy body, or you just want a change of routine, massage may be the answer. With theproliferating popularity of the field in recent years there has grown a confusing array of diverse techniques, ranging from the purely sexual massage to the totally clinical tradition of the physical therapists. Theseopposite ends of the spectrum are undergoing changes as a result of the new wave of interest inmassage. The state attempts to regulate the sexual massage. The truck-stop parlors are now taxed and licensed. Each masseuse and masseuer is required to pass a short examination in the academics ofanatomy and physiology, the state examiner receiving a massage as part of the test. The WashingtonState law requires the "genitalia" be covered when a man is lying on his back in the presence of amasseuse. Therefore, beyond the standard variations on the Swedish massage, the hustling must berelatively subtle and the additional action discrete. Bioenergetics has fused some of the sexual aspectsof body energy with the therapeutic. Bioenergetics is based on the orgasmic energy theories of WilhelmReich, a contemporary of Freud who was persecuted in the United States for his unconventional views;Bioenergetic postures are learned which cause the body to fÂ® shake, or tremble, thus releasing andactivating ^ the positive "bioenergy." Reich, himself, a Â° physician and psychoanalyst; was ostracizedby the medical profession. Bioenergetics, as well as the more traditional massage practices ofchiropractic, naturopathy and rolphing, has been put down by the medical profession asa ignorant ofscientific medical practice and therefore dangerous. This attitude is changing. Chiropractic focuses onadjustment of joints especially the spine. Naturopathy also aligns bones, but adds the use of herbalmedicines, vitamins and dietary input. Rolphing is another method of bone and joint alignment; it is veryrigorously structured and can be painful. An easily learned Chinese massage technique begins on theforehead near the pituitary gland (i.e., at the third eye or the sixth chakra), soothes and awakens theepidermal layers of the face, head and neck. All of these methods of therapy primarily are preventiverather than curative; they are not meant to cure diseases but rather to prevent disease through bettercare and awareness of the body. Physical therapy is oriented toward the cure of disease. This field hasbeen increasingly criticized as too expensive and limited to be available to any but severely disabledcases. Physical therapists must hold a college degree and work by referral from physicians, usually inclinical surroundings. Such ailments as arthritis, backache, slipped joints and headaches areincreasingly dealt with by massage practices outside the traditional medical field. Even is such bodywork will not produce a forever beautiful or instantly healthy body, if you are sceptical of the professedadvantabes or still confused by the variety of possibilities, try a massage. At least it will be a change ofroutine, and it could be good for you. :-d! PI U3I HAND TO FOOT: Cheryl Hockett applies pressurepoint massage to uncurl some anonymous toes. Washington targeted for pot decriminalization moveWashington has been targeted as a priority state for marijuana decriminilization in 1977 by theNational Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML). NORML has begun itsstatewide lobbying efforts by appointing Roger Roffman, a professor at the University ofWashington, state coordinator. Keith Stroup, NORML's national director, has stated that Washingtonwill be one of fifteen states in which the lobby will be devoting special attention when the newlegislature convenes in January. "The Pacific Northwest is the birthplace of marijuanadecriminilization," Stroup noted. "Oregon became the first state to decriminilize . . . in 1973, followedby Alaska and California last year. The experience in these states has been favorable and thesuccess of the Oregon approach provides a firm foundation for Washington to enact similar legislation . . ." In addition to the three states cited, Maine, Colorado, Ohio, South Dakota and Minnesota haveenacted similar laws, eliminating jail sentences for possession of small amounts and replacing themwith citation- enforced fines. "Continued criminilization of marijuana users is both costly andcounterproductive," Roffman said. "It alienates and harms thousands of young people annually andundermines the effectiveness and credibility of programs aimed at reducing the problemssurrounding the misues of truly serious drugs." Roffman pointed out decriminilization has beenendorsed by such diverse groups and individuals as Robert DuPont, director of the National Instituteon Drug Abuse; Governor Dan Evans; Charles Morris, director of the State Department of Social andHealth Services; the Governor's Advisory Council on Drug Abuse and the Seattle City Council.Margolis to run an "Organic" campaign ONE STOF SHOPPING: Does this presage a new development in the undertaking business? Photo by Chris Plourde Jeffrey Margolis, proprietor of Everybody's Store inthe little town of VanZandt, has begun a race for the position of state senator from the 40th legislativedistrict. Margolis stated that he is running for senator because the time has come to promote happiness and organic awareness. "Organic Awareness is the ability to go about solving problems withsimplicity, honesty, efficiency, compassion and complete knowledge," he stated. "What this meansfor the people of Skagit, San Juan and Whatcom Counties is that we must promote industry derivedfrom agriculture, forestry and fisheries in an atmosphere where conservation and ingenuity triumph over pollution and greed." Margolis was one of the authors of the ill-fated Whatcom County DemocraticPlatform that was aborted at the county convention for lack of a quorum and is involved in theVanZandt Dike Concerned Citizen's Commmittee. Margolis also is involved with a campaign to stopconstruction of a proposed all-terrain vehicle facility to be built on 6000 unscathed acres nearVanZandt. He has been a past editor of the left-oriented "Northwest Passage." He said he was surethat media coverage of his campaign would be distorted because, "It's happened in the past." ---------- Western Front - 1976 July 29 - Page 3 ---------- Thursday, July 29,1976 Western Front 3 Out to Lunch Tax reform is needed to provide school funding Astatewide series of hearings on the next biennial school budget concluded last week in Seattle, withmany witnesses praising parts of the state's school system while saying the level of school funding must be raised. The House Ways and Means subcommittee on school appropriations conducted fivepublic hearings around the state to give local school officials and taxpayers opportunity to commentabout the state's school system. The way schools are funded and the level of funding is at issue. Manypersons testifing emphasized special levies represent an inequitable way to fund schools, although the basic school apportionment formula was thought to be good. Ross Jennings of the Federal WayChamber of Commerce presented that community's recommendations to solve the school fundingproblem at the Seattle hearing last Wednesd-day. "We feel tax reform is necessary to provide basiceducation for schools and also to properly fund all government and legislation in the state," he said.The proposal called for establishing a personal and corporal e income tax as a percentage ofadjusted gross income, with shifts in other taxes, such as the sales and property taxes. The proposalalso called for a system of "zero base budgeting" that would require the legislature to approve a taxunit for each service being funded. "A legislator voting for a governmental service would, at the sametime, be voting for the tax to provide that service at an identifiable level of both tax and service," he said.Also under review by the panel is management of the schools, an issue which has been hotly debated,since it relates to local control. Most testifying supported the general concept of Educational ServiceDistricts, which provide support services for the school districts. Opinion was divided, however, as tothe relationship of the service districts to the state Superintendent of Public Instruction's Office and thelocal districts. The committee heard testi-money on the state's apportionment formula based onweighted students. Robert H. Wood-roof, Edmonds School District superintendent, told the panel theNational Commission on School Finance considers Washington's formula to be one of the most effective in the nation "for equalized distribution of state dollars. Inequities are largely in variations due todiffering amounts of special levy support, not due to formula weakness," he said. Housing? Start early Ifyou are one of the many students looking for fall quarter housing, you had better start lookingimmediately. According to a number of real estate agencies which handle rentals, only about two percent of available housing remains to be rented in the Bellingham area. One agency, which handles 350rentals, stated only eight rentals were available at the time. Another agency, which handles 75 rentals, had none. Many people who have been looking for housing most of the summer are still searching. The agencies receive about 40 calls daily from people in desperate need of housing. Nothing can be done.Some people may feel that housing will be readily available since the quarter is about to end. This isnot so. More students will come, looking for living space, but will have no luck. If you happen to be oneof the many who feel they have a lot of time to find a place to live, think twice.

Peace at any price? by DAN SMITH . . . and the people were suffering and sorely oppressed in a place for which there was noointment. War was rampant, and scenes like the following were not uncommon: "Be ye a Floobergibbstor a Ho-Dad?" "Let me see . . . (flips a coinj . . . Floobergib-bet!" "Death to the Floobergibbet runninglackey imperial revisionist nose-pickers!" "Howzabout two out of three?" Governments were in decay and stank with sin, corruption and vice. In capitals all over the world you could hear: "I'm glad you broughtthem, Senator; just give them ato my slinky, sex-crazed secretary over there on the rack." "I hope youlike them, great President, brother of the sun, sister of the moon, partridge in the pear tree, lord of allunder heaven and east of Poughkeepsie, Chamber of Commerce Man of the Year . . . I had to sell mysister into slavery for them." "Well, after all, I did pollute the Pacific Ocean and bomb the Vatican foryou." "But don't forget, oh Keeper of the People's Balls, that I wiretapped the Dalai Lama for you." "Allthe same, this had better be a good selection of rubber duckies." Poverty was rampant too. (There wasan awful lot of ramp going around.) Ninety per cent of the people went to bed hungry. Sixty per cent of the people had debilitating diseases. Twenty-five per cent of the people didn't even own a color television.Complaints such as this sometimes were heard: "If they can send a man to the moon, why can't theysend me a custom Lincoln Continental with alpaca upholstery, ivory steering wheel . . . " Needless tosay, all this led to extreme apathy. All over the world was heard: Then, one day, along came a little satyr, wondering why everything was in such a mess. Suddenly, he noticed everyone seemed to have a warton their nose. "But," the conservatives protested, "We don't see any wart." This did not deter the satyr.He claimed to be able to see into the ultra-violet range. Of course, very few people believed in ultra-violetwarts. Some liberals did. As the warts were invisible, they proposed cutting off everyone's entire nose,just to make sure they had it, but the outcry was such that the project was scrapped. The satyrcontinued to jump and laugh and point at the warts until news of his discovery reached the ears of a veryspecial person. High on a mountain top sat Alexander Napoleon Roosevelt Franklin Leonardo Zara-thustra (the Third, no less), better known as Ubermensch. Yes, Ubermensch . . . faster than a running-dog of imperialism, more powerful than a vote, able to leap over oxymorons at a single bound. He couldchange the course of mighty ideas and bend people in his bare hands. For years, he has sat on hismountain top, watching the people below groveling like ants. Fired with the satyr's idea, he went forth tofight for justice, cleanliness, reverence, thrift, etc., etc. etc. . . . And, lo, unlike those of the past, hesucceeded. He had to break laws and traditions and get rid of a few people who stubbornly insisted there was such a thing as a God-given right to be an asshole. In the end, however, he abolished war, poverty,injustice, disease and heartbreak of ring-about-the-collar. Everyone wandered around in a state of purebliss. Eden had r9turned. Alexander Napoleon Roosevelt etc. etc., was the first to go. They found himunder a tree, cold as a mackerel. His fingers were wrapped around his toes and there were notchescarved into the tree, in groups of ten. Everyone had noticed he had seemed listless, but they thought hewas just resting after his great victory. Then the former military men started dropping off. Having no oneleft who was different, who they could kill, they did the next best thing and held their breaths till theyturned blue. No one would have lamented their passing, but it didn't stop there , . . Policemen wentbecause there was no one who needed arresting . . . lawyers because no one heeded trying. People inthe transportation business faded away because there was really no reason to go anywhere elseanymore. Historians pooped out because no more history was being made. Teachers bit the celestialsandwich because there was nothing really worth knowing anymore. Artists, writers and composersWent to that big garrett in the sky because there was nothing to say anything about . . . how many ways can you describe people sitting under trees, eating grapes? Farmers didn't have to hoe the line because everything grew wild now. Even certified public accountants passed on . . . although the exact time ithappened was hard to determine. Pretty soon, only the - most simple-minded, boring people were leftsitting around, getting fatter and fatter (along with a few Chamber of Commerce representatives, sendingout brochures to other planets.) The satyr was at his wit's end and was thinking of taking himself tothat big whoopee-cushion in space. In desperation and disgust, he took an apple off a tree and bit intoit; nothing happened. "Funny," he mused, "it worked before." But, undaunted, he put on a pair of surplusarmy boots and searched out the dumbest, biggest, strongest-looking person he could find. He said hello to one large fellow, drowsing under a tree and, when the man was at a loss for an answer, the satyrknew he had found whom he was looking for. He drew back his foot, gave the man a kick in the placemost likely to attract his attention, and proceeded to start making history.

Classified^ ---------- Western Front - 1976 July 29 - Page 4 ---------- estern Jfront Thursday, July 29, 1976 ion A self-fulfilling prophecy As you know, Daniel Evans is notseeking re-election this time around. We should say it is the end of an era, but it might be more aptlydescribed as the completion of a non-era. In twelve years, Evans has managed to leave less of a mark on state government than any governor since Samuel Cosgrove, who died in 1909 shortly after taking office.We are willing to grant this is due in part to the fact that during much of those twelve years, the effectiveadministration of the state has been in the hands of the Democratic party, which is synonymous withHenry Jackson. - What irks us most'is, thÂ«. Republican party's response to the challenge of beginning a new era. , Either they have fallen into a rut or have just decided to give the election to the Democrats. tFirst there is Daniel Evans Jr . . .er, pardon me, . . . John Spellman. Regardless of his competency as an administrator, it is naive to suggest he won't fall into the ready-made Evan's pattern of the stateexecutive bureaucracy. Then there is Harley Hoppe . . . n o , the rumors that someone is collecting hisspeeches to be published as a joke book called "Captain Hoppe's Whiz-Bang" are not true. TheDemocratic party, no doubt feeling victory in the air, has offered us a glut of candidates. There is DixyLee Ray, currently leading the field in the polls. Ray has one significant drawback . . . her advocacy ofnuclear power. It is plain that, referendum or no referendum^ it would not take Governor Ray long to fillWashington with nuclear power plants. This would be acceptable to us on one condition . . . that Rayagree to have all the nuclear waste buried in her back yard. Mayor Wes Uhlman probably is the nextmost serious contender at this time. As Mayor, he has shown himself to be insensitive to therelationships and processes that make for good administration. If Seattle is one of the best cities inthe U.S. in which to live, Uhlman can claim no personal credit â€” he merely has continued as a sort ofcaretaker for the administrative setup Letters arranged by J. Dorman Braman. As Governor, Uhlmanwould be a slightly more inept Democratic version of a Dan Evans. Both Uhlman and Ray wouldcontinue to be vassals of the Jackson organization. There ar lt;? two minor candidates, Tim Bender andClay Huntington, who strike us as basically good men, but Bender is essentially a one issue candidate(labor) and Huntington is (and because of lack of effort, will remain) an unknown quantity. Then there islawyer Marvin Durning. He started his campaign early, and has shown ability for organization from thevery first. Recently, he was the only candidate to do any vote canvassing at the Whatcom CountyDemocratic Convention. He is the only candidate who has issued position papers and pamphlets,clearly spelling out his opinions. We like most of those opinions. On issues ranging from theenvironmental to taxation to school funding, Durning has shown a pragmatic, practical point of view, insome ways distantly reminiscent of echoes from the popular Brown administration of California. He alonehas stated, flat out, that new taxes will be needed to provide the services Washingtonians want.Whenever he has said this, he has been applauded. Everyone likes him, yet everyone says, "he can'twin," so he perpetually winds up with anywhere from 2 to 6% in preferential opinion polls. What kind ofidiots are out there? Of course the man can't win if no one supports him and votes for him because theythink he can't win. So, don't blame us if Henry Jackson continues to control the state's government andyou find a nuclear reactor next door one day. We told you so. â€” Dan Smith 'YOU DON'T RUN FORPRESIDENT ON JUST FANFARE, A FAT BANKROLL AND A FLASHY SMILE... ...HOWEVER, IN ACASE LIKE MINE, YOU MAKE DO WITH WHAT YOU'VE GOT!' "Pornography" uncalled for Editor,Western Front: I would like to comment on the latest issue (July 22) which was titled, "And Having Writ." I feel that the Western Front has a duty to the students to be informative, artistic and unbiased.There have been a couple of issues this quarter that have been less than any of these three categories. I don't feel pornographic literature is at all in good taste, and as a member of the Front staff, I disapproveof such material. To put such trash as a mock seal of the office of the President, with a penis in thecenter, is totally uncalled for. I hope in the future there will be second thoughts about such materialsthat is printed. Tony Volchok Senior Journalism Reply: The impish facts of life Recycled News 10YEARS AGO: FROM THE COLLEGIAN During the night, mysterious shouts were heard throughout thecampus. Strange figures were afoot . . . one fell from a tree. Some sort of spy skullduggery in the works?No, members of Project Overcome were out placing cardboard sculptures and constructions around the campus. Project director Leland Stanley said it was done to test student reaction. He reports thereaction from students was slight, compared to reactions the night before from campus security. 25YEARS AGO: FROM THE COLLEGIAN Raymond Giles, a safety education instructor, has admittedwomen drivers are just as good as men, "Providing they have had the opportunity to develop driving skills,obtain driver information and develop correct habits and attitudes." So, men don't need to do all that to be good drivers? Incidentally, the Selective Service has announced that 62,700 college students flunked the recent draft aptitude test, which may say something for their intelligence. 50 YEARS AGO: FROM THEWEEKLY MESSENGER The Messenger ran a column called "Anecdotes" that used to include jokes.Some nostalgic samples of jokes you just couldn't tell, in 1976, without getting letters: English Prof:"What is a poet?" Dutchman: "A poet is a fellow vot writes werse and werse." * * * * * * * * First Man:"She's the finest girl I ever saw! I don't care what I do, she won't like me. I bought her ice cream cones, Ibought her candy and sent her a Valentine with a heart on it, and she still won't like me. What would youdo in my place? Would you try to kiss her?" Second Man: "I should say not! You've done enough for that girl already." Editor's Note: The point on the specific article in question is well-taken. It was run, in part, because of a sudden, impish desire on our part to see if anyone out there was really paying attention tous or just using the paper to wrap fish. However, I might add that some of the world's greatest literature(Petronius, Boccaccio and Rabelais to name just a few) has been unabashedly pornographic. Ourarticle is not, of course, even remotely in a league with these writers, but we feel the controversy around it to be more related to its necessity or informativeness rather than its pornographic qualities. Volchokalso makes the statement that a couple of issues have been less than informative, artistic andunbiased without going into specific detail. Such criticism is worthless and impossible to respond to. front staff The Western Front is the official newspaper of Western Washington State College. Editorialopinions are those of the writer.

Blair McHenry, aformer Western student and Viking highjumper is one athlete who believes that being a Christian hasenhanced his life in many ways, whether it be jumping or coaching youngsters up in Anchorage where he attends a bible college. McHenry became involved in the Christian movement after meeting a fewUniversity of Washington athletes who "performed tremendously and still had time to have faith in theLord." "Sports is a great way to share the gospel with athletes," says McHenry. When he was a"straight" athlete he did not feel "full," now his successes are not built around athetics but God. McHenry believes that his destiny in sports is held in the arms of Jesus. Christianity as a "God given gift," enables McHenry to work well with children. "It is a joy implanting Jesus' salvation on the kids, but I don't force it on them," explained McHenry. "They know I'm a Christian and come to me . . . filled with questions."McHenry who abstains from drinking and smoking is working out on the weights at Western during thesummer, and calls his past season a "rebuilding year." He plans on competing in the decathlon asopposed to just high jumping because "it's more of a challenge and I feel I have a better chance ofwinning." McHenry's style of jumping is called straddling as opposed to the now popular Fosbury Flop,made famous by ex-Oregon State highjumper Dick Fosbury. McHenry feels that by straddling he gets amore powerful jump, compared to the flop which necessitates great running speed. He doesn't receive the intensive coaching he needs up in Alaska, but McHenry says that there are some track meets in thearea mostly sponsored by local military bases. He is presently affiliated with the Northwest StridersTrack Club, but is not sure of what the future holds for him as far as competition is concerned. McHenrywould like to either work or compete for a Christian athletic team based in California called Athletes-in-Action. They field teams in various sports. His feeling of being an Olympic champion to glorify God isoverwhelmed by just being able to be himself. Evidently McHenry as well as many other athletes feel very strongly about the fact, that they would not be successfully involved in sports if it were not for God.BOTTOMS UP/ â€” Western's experimental car, Viking II, is in preparation for next month's Sea to SeaEconomy Rally.

Running through Aug. 6, "Northwest Folk Art" includes woodcarving, weaving andscrimshaw by four leading Whatcom County artists-crafts people. With varied backgrounds and skills,they have joined forces to put together a powerful show of Northwest folk art. * Of the four contributors,John Hendricks' love for and understanding of Native American life is most apparent. He has made rattles, a medicine pipe and pouches, an Indian woman's sewing set, and a wooden "sea otter bowl" â€” theotter, lying on its back, with gleaming abalone eyes and its belly scooped out to form the bowl.Hendricks has lived in the Northwest since 1928 and studied its Indian art for the past 25 years. He saidin the exhibit's brochure that for the Northwest Indians, everything has a "spirit life," and he hopes it canbe felt in his works. Part of their dynamicism is due to a skillful integration of function and decoration.They flow together and complement each other. Scott Jensen studied tool-making with John Hendricksand uses traditional methods, woods, and his own hand-made tools to carve masks, head dresses, andbox motifs. Especially striking was a Tsonogua mask â€” "one of a large family of giants who live in thefaraway mountains and woods." Jensen says his pieces are inspired by Pacific Northwest Coast NativeAmerican art. Renee Jensen showed her well-done scrimshaw jewelry-carving and etching on ivory,filling in details with colored ink. A whalers' folk art, scrimshaw originally was done on sperm whale teeth. Elephant and walrus teeth are now used to compensate for the growing demand for scrimshaw and thescarcity of whale teeth. Ms. Jensen switched to scrimshaw from pen and ink drawings two years ago and taught . herself the special etching techniques. Her subject matter is Northwest wildlife. She said shelikes the ivory's qualities and the precision detail that scrimshaw demands. Her mastery of the medium is evident. Intermingled with these direct influences are the weavings of Lois Steiner. Steiner studied loomweaving with Hazel Lasly at Washington State University, but found it too confining for her explorationand expression. She turned to a more primitive "off the loom" technique and has done tremendous thingswith it. Steiner sees her works as contemporary interpretations of Northwest motifs and the "ceremonialand fantasy" pieces complement the carving and jewelry. Her colors and textures are subtle, yet rich,again reflective of life in the Northwest. For an abundance of high quality work well-exhibited, take in the"Northwest Folk Art" show. It's fascinating, and it makes you feel good to be living in the Northwest.JOHN HENDRICKS: Holding spirit bowl, standing by one of his carved totems.

The thirdannual exhibition displayed 50 selected entries from more than 120 submitted. A maximum of threepieces per artist were accepted from the three judges, Lin Lipetz, Ramona Solberg and Margery Powell.According to exhibition chairperson Louise Grant, the character of the show is one of strongerprofessionalism than the two previous years and is of a rather serious nature. Grant said the piecesdemonstrate excellent craftman-ship in their design and execution. One of the more eve-catching pieces,"With a Little Help from My Friends," by Jan Witcraft, won $75 for second prize. The 92" by 92" piececovers one white wall and is a silkscreen and batik quilt of cotton and polyester. One little girl looked upat it, then said to her grandmother, "It's sorta like a great, big garden!" The print of carrots, green beans,radishes and asparagus is done in orange, purple and dark green on a light green background, with afour-inch thick purple border. "Ku Klux Klan" is the title of a striking, simple plastic wall hanging of various sized plastic strips. The plastic weaving by Mary Mclntyre hangs down from a hollow metal pole, withdifferent widths and lengths of transparent and yellow strips weaving in and out. In a well-lit glass cabinet, a cape and five coats are displayed. The exhibit's $100 first prize, "Cloud Coat," by Anita Mayer, ismade from unspun fleece and wool. It has no buttons or zipper, which makes the viewer wonder whetheror not the coat is for wearine. Another coat by Mayer, "Autumn Leaves," is one of the most colorfulpieces in the entire display. This tapestry coat is done in shades of browns and greens. The sleeves ofthe coat followed in the same color sequence, giving it an appearance of leaves scattered about on theground on an autumn day. Whatcom Textiles Guild and the museum sponsor the show through a grantfrom Washington State Arts Commission. Cash awards were given for the first time and were possiblethrough grants from Pacific First Federal Savings and Loan Association, Georgia- Pacific Corp., IntalcoAluminum Corp. and The Bellingham Herald. From 1 to 3 p.m. each Thursday, demonstrations will bepresented on various aspects of working with fibers. The exhibition will run until Sept. 5.

Mostcomposers' creativity suffered from this, but two early composers managed to make something personalfrom their foreign training. Edward MacDowell was born into a relatively well-to-do New York family. Hisfather had been a frustrated painter, so sympathized with Edward's desire to become an artist of somesort, Seeing potential both for painting and music, Edward was soon sent to Paris to study at theprestigious Conservatoire. He largely pursued a musical course, concentrating on the study of piano withan eye to becoming a performer. Once, in a sketching class, MacDowell made such an impressivedrawing of the instructor (who had a very distinctive nose) that he was temporarily sidetracked intopursuing a course in art. He still found himself drawn to music, increasingly to composition, and seeinghow the Conservatoire treated the non-traditional composing exercises of fellow student ClaudeDebussy (they were ridiculed) MacDowell made an important decision. He wrote to his father, saying theConservatoire had nothing more to teach him and he would prefer studying in Stuttgart, Germany. Itturned out to be a very important decision. In Stuttgart, MacDowell met and studied with Germancomposer Joachim Raff, who at that time was more popular in Germany then Brahms. Once, when asked by Raff what he had in store for his first composition exercise, MacDowell fibbed, saying he was writinga piano concerto. Afraid of being caught in a lie when the time for the excercise suddenly drew near,MacDowell rushed a concerto through in one week. Raff was so impressed he showed it to the patriarchof German music, Franz Liszt, who also was impressed. MacDowell had made a career in Germany,and even taught there for many years. With the death of his friend Raff in 1882, and the death of the aged benefactor Liszt in 1886, MacDowell, in 1888, returned premanently to the United States. In the U.S.,MacDowell primarily made his living as a virtuoso concert pianist until injuries seemed minor at the time,within a eyar he began to lose his powers of concentration, spending hours trying to remember littlethings and staring into space. He passed away quietly, of an undiagnosed condition, in his hotel room,after two years of being virtually a mental vegetable. CHARLES T. GRIFFES [1884 â€” 1920] EDWARDMacDOWELL [1861 â€” 1908] Charles Griffes was born to a prosperous businessman in Elmira, NewYork. During a childhood bout of typhoid fever, he claimed to have a mystical experience while listeningto his syster playing a Beethoven sonata, and decided to become a composer. Although the typhoid lefthis health very poor, he decided to study in Berlin. His teacher there was Engelbert Humperdinck,composer of a popular operetta, "Hansel and Gretel," who later would have his name borrowed by apopular English singer. His training was strictly German, but Griffes' earlier mystical experience began todraw him to impressionism, the sweet, mystical and vaguely Oriental style then coming out of France.Upon his return to the United States, he took up teaching at a small school called Hackley College inTarrytown, New York. Teaching was a grind upon his already fragile health, but he had no other means oflivelihood. No other means, that is, until a wildly Oriental orchestral tone poem called "The PleasureDome of Kubla Khan" was played by the Boston Symphony. Commissions for new compositionssuddenly began to pour in at an unbelievable rate. Griffes, being a retiring person, simply could not refuse any and spend many night burning the midnight oil in an attempt to meet the deadlines on all.Predictably, his feeble health broke. In 1919, he was stricken with a case of nervous pleurisy and wassuspected of being tubercular. He was taken to an Elmira sanitorium where he came down with influenza. This in turn brought about empyema (lesions) of the lung, and Griffes died shortly after an operation wasmade in an attempt to remove them. OUT approached by Columbia University to become their firstprofessor of music. He accepted, but soon found that administrative duties were not to his liking andthat the infrastructure of the university was too inflexible to permit him to run the music department as he saw fit. The ensuing controversy caused by MacDow-ell's resignation made national headlines andcontinued for several years with both sides exchanging countercharges and attempting to place blame.During this controversy, MacDowell was hit and run over by a horse-drawn taxi.

K . . . . ---------- Western Front - 1976 July 29 - Page 10 ---------- ^ 10 Western Front Thursday, July 29,1976 American Music: Contrapuntally speaking by DAN SMITHListeners to popular music take strong, syncopated rhythms for granted, but in serious compositioncontrapuntal (emphatically rhythmical) writing underwent an eclipse following the Baroque era. In theClassical period, emphasis was on form and the Romantic period was enfatuated with emotion. Recently, two Americans have returned contrapuntalism to an important place in music. Elliott Carter, likeMacDowell, was born to a frustrated artist so would not have any trouble pursuing an artistic career. Atfirst, he did not intend to take up a career as a musician and instead took a Bachelor's degree in English literature from Columbia University. Carter soon found himself drawn to composition, however, and was fortunate enough to begin his studies under Walter Piston, a crusty neo-classicist from the backwoodsof Maine. Carter also had the luck to be at Columbia when the famous English composer, Gustav Hoist,was a visiting professor, and took more lessons under his tutelage. Later he studied under NadiaBoulanger in Paris. At that time, lessons from Boulanger to a composer were like a trip to Mecca to aMoslem. Upon returning to the U.S., Carter took a post teaching at St. John's Institute in Annapolis,Maryland. It was not long before the teaching began to interfere with Carter's composing so, having saved some money, he moved his family to New Mexico where he could compose in solitude. As Carter cameto composing late, virtually all of his major compositions have been written Peter Mennini (he laterdropped the final "i") was born to a musical family in Erie, Pennsylvania. His brother, Louis Mennini(who did not drop the final "i") is also a composer of some standing. PETER MENNIN [1923 â€” ]ELLIOTT CARTER [1908 â€” ] since 1945. His chief contribution to music has been a remarkablemetrical freedom and sense of intricate rhythm. He has since systematized his method and has wroughta revolution in meter similar to the one wrought in tone seventy years earlier by Arnold Schonberg.Carter's career has continued to grow, especially in the field of chamber music. His second StringQuartet won the Pulitzer Prize in 1960 and his Quartet #3 was recently accorded the same honor, in1973. Lately, Carter has been back to his old alma mater, Columbia, helping a new generation ofcomposers to whom he has become a sort of living culture hero. *^Mpp*Â¥Â¥Â¥**Â¥*Â¥Â¥Â¥Â¥Â¥Â¥Â¥ Mennin studied under Howard Hanson, mentor of the famous Eastman music school in Rochester,New York. At the time Mennin studied there, Hanson was coming to be regarded as an ultra-conservative, didactic Romanticist, dedicated to turning out a cabal of third-rate Tchaikovskys. Menninturned out to be a new-romanticist, but his own dashing, extrovert character urged him to formulate ahighly rhythmic romanticism that speaks of urbanized, industrial America. His music, though certainlynot in the fore-front of compositional technique, has a driving power that makes it attractive andunmistakeably American. Today, Mennin is known chiefly for his "symphonies" (actually not symphonies in the strictest classical interpretation of the word), of which he has to date composed seven. In 1963, Mennin was accorded one of the greatest honors in the musical world when he was selected to bepresident of the Juilliard School of Music. ^W+ ^^* ^t*^^^ ^^^ ^^* *^^ ^^* ^t^ ^^*^ lt;*^T* ^T* ^T**^^ ^^*^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^*^^Â» RECOMMENDED LISTENING Carter: String Quartets #1, #2 and #3, Concerto forOrchestra, Dual Concerto for Harpsichord, Violin and orchestra.

Forty students, of which 35 are female, twoteachers and a tour escort, came to Bellingham last week from Seika College to improve on their English and experience what an American college is like. "They're enjoying their classes and are making someneat things," Norris said. The students are enrolled in weaving, taught by Shannon Brown, jewelry, PaulGreen, and stain-glass making, Joe Anzalone. About 15 students, both Bridge Project and Japanese,are in each class, with two sections in jewelry. Also, planned is a two-day workshop tomorrow,headed by Carol Leber and a raku (Japanese pottery making) workshop with Debby Sawislak on Aug. 12. "Since some of the students understand no English, use of the Japanese/American dictionaries isextensive in addition to hand motions and a lot of searching for the right word, reduced into the simpliestterms," Norris said. Last week for three days, the students visited the Fairhaven Urban Studies Center,located in Seattle. The trip was very successful and proved to be interesting,"nOrris said. At the center,the females had many questions dealing with the American woman's liberation movement andquestioned the role of women in an American society. Next week, 12 females will go back for 10 moredays since they were very interested with the center. Besides adjusting to the American college scene,the students also are living and cooking their own meals in the co-op dorms. "The students have achance for a great deal of interaction," Norris said. She cited one Fairhaven student as saying the"Japanese students coining here made her summer." Western Front 11, photo by Tore Oftness ArnoldGallegos to head new education department icr f * i ;D 5 CD is o n- CD ARNOLD GALLEGOS bySUE MEYERS "The School of Education needs to do research on how best to allocate educationalresources and train students as well as develop a viable clinical program for student teachers," The newdean for Western's School of Education, Arnold M. GalJegos said. He has set these goals for theeducation area that is now in the process of an '' evolutionary transition.'' The education department wasrecognized in February as the School of Education, after, as Gallegos said, "a period of disengagementand misunderstanding.'' Western was originally a teachers' college and was named Western Washington College of Education from 1937 until 1961, when it became a state liberal arts college. At that point, the largest segment of the faculty, (education) was "disenfranchised." Now, as the School of Education,education areas on campus again are organized into a cohesive and indentifiable body that can offer a"common thrust and purpose for teacher education." Gallegos has been at Western since 1973. Heserved as associate dean and then acting dean for the School of Education before he assumed thedean's position. For him, it means expanded duties with the shift in perspective being a "naturalprocess," as has been the apparent trend for the entire education area. Gallegos lives in Bellingham with his wife, Jean, who is community development coordinator at City Hall and director of the Letter StreetsProject. He has a daughter, Gabrielle. Gallegos received his Doctorate from the University of California atLos Angeles, and did undergraduate work at the University of Maryland in Munich, Germany, and theUniversity of the Americas in Mexico City. What does a Dean do when he has spare time? Gallegossaid there is little time for anything else, but enjoys reading, skiing and sailing and admits to being a"reluctant" gardener. Aren't we all. Veteran's Administration releases G.I. Bill statistics A record2,821,514 persons training under the G.I. Bill during fiscal year 1976 represented the peak enrollmentin the 10-year educational assistance program, Administrator of Veterans Affairs (V.A.) RichardL.Roudebush said. The enrollments represented a 4.8 per cent increase over the previous year, when the rate of increase was 14.1 per cent. Trainees under all educational programs in 1976 totaled2,950,279. Training was provided 80,659 eligible sons and daughters and 19,092 spouses, widows and widowers under the dependents' educational program. A total of 29,014 disabled veterans receivedrehabilitation training. More than 6.5 million veterans and service personnel have received someform of training under the current G.I. Bill since June 1, 1966, including 5.1 million Vietnam-era veterans. During the 12-year life of the World War II G.I Bill, 7.8 million persons received training. The KoreanConflict bill attracted 2.4 million participants during its 12 Vz year history. Participation rates of those eligible under the current program have exceeded those of two predecessors. Particularly impressiveis the 63.4 per cent participation by Vietnam-era veterans, Roudebush said. The participation rate was43.4 pet cent among Korean War veterans and 50.5 by World War II veterans. Enrollment in collegetraining by Vietnam-era veterans (36.0 per cent] has far surpassed trainees from World War Ii (14.4) and the Korean War (22.0). New trainees in 1976 totaled 736,000, down from last year's 890,000. Of them,76 per cent entered at the college level, exclusive of correspondence programs. Veterans have eligibility for educational training for 10 years after release from active duty. For farm cooperative, apprentice oron-the-job training and flight training, eligibility ceases 10 years from date of last separation frommilitary service after Jan. 31, 1955, or Aug. 30, 1977, whichever is later. Further details can beobtained from any VA office or veterans organization service officers. ODE TO TRADITION GONEAMUCK I have done the research for this paper, Yet I'm bored.

By JACKIE LAWSON Editor-in-Chief Every student at Western is currentlycapable of having their enrollment in the college terminated withour prior w a r n i n g , r e g a r d l e s sof gradepoint, for failing two or more pass/fail courses in one quarter. According to the current collegecatalog, "a student's enrollment is terminated for low scholarship if, as a freshman, he receives grades of NP in two courses amounting to at least five credits, or, after the freshman year, he receives NP grades in two courses in any one term." S h o u l d a s t u d e n t 's enrollment be terminated, he must thenpetition the Scholastic Standing Committee for reinstatement and, if readmitted, is placed on a c a d em i c probation the following quarter. Because of the current pass/fail policy, where a grade of C orbetter is required for passing, it is conceivable for a student with a 4.0 cumulative grade point average tobe dropped, without warning, from the college. On April 20, 1969, the Academic Council establishedthe original pass/fail system of grading, for elective courses and general education courses. The originalpolicy contained the stipulations that a grade of D or better was considered pass on the system, andthat the pass/fail grading system was on an experimental basis for a maximum of two years. It was also decided by the Council that such a grading system was to be evaluated one year after its enactment.In making the evaluation, an ad hoc committee of the Academic Council collected information from varied sources. All faculty members teaching general education courses were sent a questionnaire asking forinformation concerning student motivation, performance and class attendance, as well as how pass/failgrading affected their courses. Faculty questions P/F worth Ail faculty members, regardless of whetherthey taught general education courses, were polled concerning whether pass/fail grading â€¢ in generaleducation affected academic standards, quality of i n s t r u c t i o n , evaluation of transcripts bygraduate schools and employers, whether pass/fail grading should be retained, and for suggestions foralternative grading systems. All students were requested to submit their opinions and experiences withpass/fail grading. A random poll of s t u d e n t s taking general education on a pass/fail basis wasmade to solicit their reactions to a number of facets of the problem. Other colleges and universitiesthroughout Washington and other parts of the country were polled concerning their experiences withpass/fail grading. Published i n f o r m a t i o n from other institutions was also collected. Letters weresent to graduate schools concerning possible differential admission standards for students with pass/failgrades on their transcripts. Letters were sent to known potential employers of Western graduatesconcerning the practice of evaluating pass/fail grading with respect to their own hiring standards.Previous . studies at Western which had evaluated aspects of pass/fail grading in particular courseswere considered. Available data from the Registrar's Office at Western concerning performance ofstudents who have elected the pass/fail option were considered. Following the evaluation, the ad hoccommittee arrived at several conclusions concerning the pass/fail system as it was then organized.Among these it charged that "students were found to have been studying less for pass/fail courses andgetting less from them than regularly graded students." Students protect G.P.A. Also according to thead hoc committee, it was found that "students stated that their primary reason for electing pass/failgrading was to protect their grade point average and that protection is supported by their performance."Recommendations were then made by the committee. Among them it was stated that "the presentpractice of pass/fail grading in general education courses should be continued on its temporary basis asenacted by the Academic Council for one more year, or until a revised system of grading is enacted. Itis recommended, however, that pass/fail grading be altered as follows beginning with Fall quarter, 1970:"That regular or pass/fail grading be elected by the student prior to the beginning of any quarter and thatno changes from one system to the other be permitted after the first five days of that term. It is believedthat allowing changes from one system to the other places pass/fail grading in an inferior status totraditional grading. "That a uniform cutoff point for pass be established at the level of C with grades lower-than C to be recorded as no pass. That serious consideration be given to limiting the number of courses in general education that can be taken on a pass/fail basis either in an individual term or for the entirefour years." On March 31,1970, a motion was made by a member of the Academic Council whichstated: "It is the sense of the Academic Council that an equivalent grade of D is a passing grade on thepass/fail system, and that no instructor nor department has the right to decree otherwise." The motionwas passed. Council cites C cutoff On April 29, 1970, the following recommendation by the AcademicCouncil was made: "That a uniform cutoff point for pass be established at the level of C with grades lower than C to be recorded as no pass." According to current Western s t a n d a r d s governing lowscholarship, the term "low scholarship" and the resulting placement of the student on academicprobation, is defined as "a freshman who fails to achieve a grade average of 2.0 in each of his first twoquarters. At the end of his first quarter he is sent a warning notice if his average is below 2.0, and he isrequired to consult his faculty adviser during the first week of the ensuing quarter. "Also, students otherthan first or second quarter freshmen, when subjected to scholastic warning for two consecutivequarters, or when admitted or readmitted to the college by action of the scholastic standing committee,will have academic probation status assigned to them." That is, under Western's current academicguidelines, any grade point average below a 2.0 is considered to be low scholarship. Under the existingpass/fail system, whereby no letter grades are assigned, and where pass and no pass are not computed into a student's grade point average, students failing two pass/fail courses in one quarter, where thefailing grade is set at a D or lower, regardless of academic standing, will be immediately and with noprior warning dropped from the enrollment list and charged with "low scholarship." ---------- Western Front - 1972 January 11 - Page 2 ---------- Western Front Tuesday, January 11, 1972 Front Editorials on the home front by steve Johnston 60AHEAD, KID.

We have thankfully reached a far-advanced stage in history where the press is not only free, but also defended and recognized as a viable, credible medium of information dissemination. Russell'sboldness and obvious integrity is impressive. We have hopes that this quarter's Western Front can notonly achieve, but surpass his expectations for quality journalism, and fair dissemination of news. We areentering a new year and a new quarter, and the newspaper staff is offering you a new Western Front. Wehave changed graphically, yet, more important, we hope we have changed literarily. The emphasis thisquarter will be placed on in-depth reporting in the hopes the Western Front will truly be a service to thestudents, faculty and administrators of Western. We, like Russell, do not fear the truth, nor do wediscourage criticism. The Western /Front will make a concerted effort to thoroughly cover the campus indepth, and present all sides of any issue affecting the college community. In doing so, we hope to raisepotential questions, generate enthusiasm and interest in campus affairs and issues, and create apublication that will serve Western with honesty and frankness, while maintaining a high level ofjournalistic excellence. We will welcome suggestions, criticism and feedback from our readers, yet we, inturn, will not fail to criticize any aspect of the college we feel is deserving of criticism and in need ofreform. We offer you what we feel to be a dynamic, attractive, credible publication. We hope it willgenerate sufficient concern in our readers to be of some assistance in initiating campus reforms. Readthe Western Front, enjoy it, but most of all, think about the issues we publicize. We are not afraid toreveal pertinent issues on campus, however,all reforms require concern and participation on the part of agreat quantity of individuals. We will supply the background information; our readers must supply the callfor action.

NEWSROOM: 676-3161 ADVERTISING PHONE: 676-3160 1972 Pageant folds "I swear on my mother's grave, cross my heart and hope to die, that before you stands a new me, a whole new, enlightened student who plans to crack the books and straighten up."And with that statement our friend Irving Bingo sat back down at the coffee table. "It's starting a little early this year, isn't it?" someone muttered. In a way, Irvirig's "Making of a New Student, 1972" pageant wasoff to an early start. Instead of making his usual rash promises on his mother's grave (his mother is ashealth as a horse) about becoming a new and better student the last day of fall quarter, he had startedtwo days earlier. But it was no cause for alarm. The pageant started off this year the same as last, withIrving frowning into his coffee cup and feeling guilty about not going to classes. Pretty soon little beads ofsweat started to pop out on his forehead. We all knew the next step of the pageant and Irving took thecue. "Oh damnation," he mumbled. Of course he was waiting for someone to ask what the problem was,but we decided to wait a little this year. However, in order to let the pageant continue on its normalcourse we had to act out our parts pretty soon. "Oh God, I'm flunking out," Irving continued when he sawhe wasn't getting the right response. "I'm flunking out and it's all my fault. I'm just no good, that's all, justno good to anyone." At this point of the pageant Irving usually (1) gains enough attention to let the wholething continue or (2) threatens to commit suicide. In 1969 we let Irving get.as far as climbing on a chairwith a rope around his neck before we went on. But this year we decided to go easy on him. "Whatseems to be the problem, Irv?" someone asked. Somewhat relieved at finally being noticed, Irving startedon the second stage of his pageant. "I completely blew this quarter. Never went to any classes except totake the tests, and flunked all those. What few classes I did go to I slept through. "But no more." It wasat this point Irving jumped up (on cue) and made his usual speech about his mother's grave and crossinghis heart. We sighed with relief and settled back for the rest. "At the start of Winter quarter I'm going toget my head screwed on right and start all over. I'm going to settle right down and start to study from thefirst day. No more meeting you clowns for coffee in the mornings. No more falling asleep in classes. I'mgoing to straighten out. Yes, sir . With the pageant well underway, we all knew Irving's next step. Hewould run up to the bookstore and buy all his books, plus a gross of notebooks and then start makinggrand appearances in the library, running from stack to stack in search of some elusive book. Generallythe pageant doesn't last through winter break. Irving meets us on the first day of Winter classes for "onelast farewell cup of coffee" and doesn't leave. So I was rather shocked when he showed up the first day in our history class with a briefcase full of books and notebooks. He even had all the books that wererequired. He sat down next to me and fished through his briefcase until he found the right notebook. Ithad the name of the class neatly printed on the cover. He opened the briefcase to show me he had adifferent notebook for each class. And they were all different colors. He casually flipped open thenotebook and put the date on the first page. This was amazing. Irving had never carried the pageant outto these lengths. "The way I plan to do it, old boy," Irving said with a superior air, "is to keep a notebookfor every class so my notes won't get mixed up. No more of this putting notes in one big book." For awhile it looked as if Irving was actually going to go through with this yearly pageant. But then the teacherwalked in and blew the whole thing. The first thing the teacher did wrong was write his name on theboard. Irving's eyes began to droop a little, but he fought it off and wrote the teacher's name in hisnotebook . . . about an inch away from where the name was already. The teacher made a secondmistake; he started to tell what the class was about. I glanced over at Irving and watched as his printingslowly slipped into sloppy loops. He was now beginning to prop his head up on his hand. Still Irving triedto fight it, but his eyelids continued to droop and then finally closed altogether. Once he woke up with astart and then went right back to sleep. At about this time the teacher was outlining what he wanted forterm papers and was recommending everyone get started on them early. But Irving missed all this. Hewas now deep in sleep and started to drool on his neatly printed colored notebooks. And when theteacher asked if there were any questions, Irving slipped out of his chair and fell on the floor. "Oh crap,"he muttered, which the teacher took to mean his lecture and put Irving's name down in a little black book. "Say," Irving said as we left the class, "why don't we go over to the coffee shop and I'll buy you a cup. Idon't really have to go to my next class anyway." The yearly "Making of A Student, 1972" pageant hadcome to a close. ---------- Western Front - 1972 January 11 - Page 3 ---------- Tuesday, January 11, 1972 Western Front Committee cuts FCC chanty bake sale "Well, everybody'sgot a good cause, but . . ." VU Director Kay Burke notifies Fairhaven Community Center CoordinatorBarbara Lundy that the FCC bake sale is to be shortened three days; the first official act of Miss Burke'sAdvisory Committee on Other Student Facilities. Photo by RON GRAHAM By JACK BROOM StaffReporter The Fairhaven Community Center bake sale ends today . . . or does it? Kay Burke, director ofthe Viking Union and Student A c t i v i t i e s , has informed community center volunteers that they willbe allowed only two days this week in which to conclude their fund-raising sale of date squares,fruitcake, and other homemade baked items. . This was the decision reached Friday by the newlyformed s t u d e n t - f a c u l t y Advisory Committee on Other (than r e s i d e n c e hall) StudentFacilities, of which Miss Burke is chairwoman. Earlier AS President Tod Sundquist had okayed the FCC bake sale for two full weeks. FCC volunteers acted on this permission, advertising and buying suppliesfor a bake sale that would run from the 4th through the 14th. Miss Burke maintains that Sundquist didnot have the a u t h o r i t y to grant this permission and that her committee, not the AS, has jurisdiction in that area. However, because policies regarding selling in the Viking Union area are currently unclear, she admits that Sundquist's decision was "legitimate at the time" but that the AS merely forgot tomention it to her office. "But, Tod and I understand it now," she explained. Whatever understanding has been reached, though, is not shared by the community center coordinators who have indicated that they plan to continue their bake sale all this week as they were originally told they could. Gary Evans, FCCcoordinator and former AS vice president said that as long as he can remember, permission from theAS has been sufficient for this type of sale. That is why the community center approached the AS forbacking. Miss Burke points out that the AS no longer has authority in this area because of new p o l i ci e s that are being formulated. However, the committee did not make its decision to cut short the FCCbake sale on the basis of any new policy because that decision was made last Friday as thecommittee's first / official act. The actual policy-making will not come until later this week or next. Norwas that decision made on the basis of old policy, because, in Miss Burke's words, "We literally had nopolicies before now." The newly-born advisory committee claims to be acting according to guidelineswhich, in fact, do not yet exist. Barbara Lundy, a former Western student and another FCC coordinator,explained that if the bake sale is cut short, the center would be left with many baking ingredients, someof which, like eggs, will not last long, and other ingredients which could be sold back to the CommunityFood Co-op, but at no profit. Miss Burke expressed the concern that "We don't want to end up withGrand Central Station up there." She indicated to Evans that she did not want "a million other groups" to demand that they also be allowed to sell up there. Yet she also mentioned that several people hadsuggested creating a flea market type set-up in the area, where many students could sell things thatthey had made. The stated purpose of the advisory committee is to establish guidelines whereby"groups would be given an opportunity to use the (VU) area for sales." Another point mentioned by Miss Burke was that the community center is not a campus group because the money from the bake sale isnoi going to a campus group. Evans explained that out of the 150 people working with the FCC and thebake sale, over half are Western students, so it is in great part a student effort, and that the money isgoing to causes more needy than actual Western campus groups. Evans also stated that if there is any confrontation tomorrow, when the FCC sets up its bake sale for the forbidden third day this week, "It will be over the principle involved, that is, the interest of the poor people of Whatcom County on the onehand, and the committee's desire to eliminate unstructured liberties on the other." FCC explained TheFairhaven Community Center is a four-month-old, non-profit project which has as its purpose " . . . todeal with the complex problems of low income, young and old." It is in part modeled after, and will workin cooperation with the Whatcom County Community Action Center in the Birchwood area. The FCClists as its immediate goals: 1) Creation of food banks and a food information center. 2) Operation of areferral service, which in cooperation with .the Birchwood center, will have access to: Job and housinglistings, Legal aid information, Welfare counseling, Tenant union services, Emergency transportationassistance. 3) Establishment of a housing cooperative, that will explore possibilities of the cooperativepurchase of housing as one solution to the housing needs of low income people. Long-range projects ofthe center include: An autonomous southside emergency transportation service. A non-profit kitchen,serving nutritious food for minimal cost. A medical clinic serving those who are currently unable toreceive adequate medical care. An organization that would assist in the renovation of old housing andthe construction of new homes. The o r g a n i z a t i o n of communal garden plots. A full scale and fulltime switchboard service. A hostel service for transient people. The establishment of small industries to employ those needing work. Miss Lundy says that the center's purpose is, in general, "To make people aware of the community and other people rather than just themselves." For this reason she said, thecenter must be a project of the e n t i r e community. FCC equipment, which at this point consists of atypewriter and a telephone, is open to anyone who wants to use it, Miss Lundy said. The center's officeis located at 1303 11th Street.

And it doesn't look quite the same either. A broken typewriter guards theentrance. Pieces of a jungle gym line one wall and a small white-washed doll house with one windowsits out a few feet from the opposite wall. It's still without a sandbox, though. During the Christmasbreak, the Dorm 3 lounge became the College Cooperative Nursery, the only day care facility inBellingham which provides care for children under three years of age. It's now open and ready to handle30 to 35 children daily. The possibility of a campus day care center has been researched and discussed since early 1970, but the committee working on it had come up against a shortage of available fundsand facilities. In July, 1971, the Ad Hoc Committee on a Day Care Center tabled its proposal for theestablishment of a campus center, citing adverse financial conditions and the availability of space inexisting day care centers throughout the city. In early September, two graduates of Western, DustyWestall and Linda Ross, both mothers of children under three, and a graduate student, Cheryn Weiser,met at a private home where a day care group was meeting. The three got together and begancontacting committee members about the possibility of a cooperative day care center. Talks withAssociate Dean Mary Robinson, who had coordinated the earlier efforts, and with people at Fairhaven,reopened the issue.

It was determined that thecenter would be available for students' children only, with a parent giving as much of his time to thecenter as his child spent there. In late December, Cathy Dexter and Barbara Grote were chosen as co-directors, charged with getting the center operating and ready to open January 4, 1972. They'vereworked some of the original provisions so that a parent spends about four hours a week in the center.Miss Dester explained that if they stayed with equal time for parent and child, everyone would be in thecenter almost eight hours a day. The day care experience is not new to most of the parents who are inthe cooperative. "Some of the parents have been involved in other nurseries before, but never in acooperative," Miss Dexter said. She draws on her experience with a cooperative in Ellensburg in herposition of co-director. As a junior at Central Washington State College, she joined women's liberation.After six months she quit school and with three other members of the group, rented a house to be usedas a day care center for low income and instructors families. The cooperative is open from 7:30 a.m. to5:30 p.m., and there is room for up to 15 children every hour. Miss Dexter said the center hasn't reached maximum enrollment yet and if, after the first two weeks of this quarter, the center is not full, staff andfaculty children will be a d m i t t e d . Although the cooperative proposal stated an upper age limit ofthree years, Miss Dexter pointed out that t h e y ' v e withdrawn that restriction. They depended onprivate sources for funds, but to a large extent "we just learned different ways to survive without money," Miss Dexter said. She sees the cooperative providing parents with a say in creating the child'senvironment, something that they don't have in other paid day care situations. She explained that thecooperative membership will make decisions on what their Events TODAY 2:30 p.m.: Major Wayne Aho speaking on UFOs and ESP, Viking Union Lounge. 6:30 p.m.: Play, " A Man For All Seasons," MusicAuditorium.

Photo by JIM THOMSON children will do, and will discuss various topics, such as differentapproaches to child rearing. They have already decided that single parent and low income families will be given first consideration. If a parent wants to join the cooperative, but can't spend time with the children, he can contribute in other ways, such as building or fixing toys, doing weekend maintenance, preparing lunches or providing emergency child care on weekends. T h e m e m b e r s and condirectors want toimpress upon visitors the need to respect the children's privacy. While both Miss Grote and Miss Dexter are encouraging visitors for the first two weeks, people are r e q u e s t e d to phone the cooperative foran appointment to visit the center after that time. "Right now everybody is basically a visitor," MissDexter said. Miss Grote, who is working toward a Masters in Arts in child development, explained thatone of the difficulties with visitors walking in and out of the center is the disruption of the homeatmosphere. Students can use the center for a laboratory, but if they do, they won't be just observing."I'm really down on people just looking," she said. "It makes the kids feel like they're in a zoo." MissGrote would like to see prenatal instruction expanded to include day care experience. "Not everyexpectant mother is excited. Some are scared," she said. "When you've been with small children, youknow what to expect." The cooperative still needs donations. The directors say they could use a recordplayer and some records, a sandbox, books, bulletin boards, plastic floor mats and paints. The co-directors encourage people who would like to design classes and get credit for work experience in thecooperative to do so. How do the children feel about the center? "I know my daughter hates to leave,"said Diana Hume. When she arrives to pick up Heather, age three, she is quite often greeted with, "Goback to. class, mommy!"

ByBOB McLAUCHLAN Exchange Editor Over the last decade, persistent but long ignored social problems came to the public's attention. P o v e r t y , malnutrition, ecological destruction and consumer fraudsurfaced. The general public became aware and concerned with the emergence of these problems. Anew determination developed. But as the search for solutions continued, new barriers were encountered:the â€¢ public and private institutions which were set up to cope with these problems seemed lost in un r e s p o n s i v e n e s s and inefficiency. Safe effective drugs and n u t r i t i o u s foods were notguaranteed by the Food and D r u g A d m i n i s t r a t i o n. Fraudulent advertising was not alwaysstopped by the Federal Trade Commission. What was good for big business was not always good for the country. The war on poverty was submerged in endless red tape of government agencies andbureaucratic inefficiencies. In answer to these problems, public interest groups have emerged throughout the country. These groups have been formed in the belief that the long range interests of citizens willcontinue to be neglected by the decision makers until: -decisions which have an impact on the publicwelfare are thoroughly discussed and studied. â€”government policy takes into consideration the beliefs and needs of more groups in society. â€”and new methods to ensure consideration of the publicinterest in private economic decisions and government policy. Students came to colleges anduniversities eager to learn how to deal competently with the forces of social injustices. Theirexpectations were met with disappointment as they quickly learned that the educational process did not encourage or train students to grapple with or provide direction for seeking positive social change.Many students found themselves leading two lives. Their responsibility as students were completelyapart from their responsibility as citizens. Recognizing that student efforts to effect social change hassuffered by lack of direction, student public interest groups (PIRGs) have formed. WashPIRG officialssay they hope to bring the local chapters together into one powerful entity. Officials believe that whileOregon was the first state to have established a student PIRG, Washington may be the g u i d i n g light to the establishment of PIRGs in other states. In this state, a larger percentage of Western studentssigned petitions in a shorter time last quarter than in any other college or university in the Washington.Over 50 per cent of the student body signed WashPIRG petitions in less than two weeks. WashPIRGwill be financed by a registration assessment of the additional $ 1 per quarter per student. The Board ofTrustees will decide whether the college will function as a collecting agent for WashPIRG. Opposition to this has been that although students who do not want to participate in WashPIRG can get their $1 back at a designated location, it is an added bother to do so. WashPIRG officials point out that that tuitionmoney spent on other things such as residence halls and sports cannot be returned to the student.Many s t u d e n t s have wondered what this money will be used for and what direction WashPIRG willtake. Except for the fact that this money will be going to hire professionals to study variousenvironmental and consumer problems in this state, not even WashPIRG officials know what will befocused on. At 4 p.m. today in Viking Union 008, a meeting will be held to discuss the direction to betaken by WashPIRG, and charter to be presented to the Board of Trustees for the formation of the localchapter and other questions students may have. Pizza delivery is 'shaky' proposition The deliveryservice of the off-campus food services businesses have been receiving trouble for quite a while. Phonefraud, thievery, assault, burglary, robbery, and destruction of property have all been reported by thosewho operate the delivery trucks that service Western's campus. According to Ross Rowell, manager ofPizza Haven, they receive about two phone calls a night and on occasion this school year have had oven doors pried off their truck and the contents stolen. If the oven is damaged it can cost up to a thousanddollars to replace. Rowell went on to say, "As people in the food service business know, people tend toget hungry at the same time and usually eat in groups. The minute 20 people walk in the door, thephone starts ringing for the delivery service. People don't realize that when we are busy the service isslowed and possibly justify the thefts with their inconvenience." The assistant manager of Shakeys,Fred Boettner-, reports up to 20 phony calls a week resulting in the loss of 20-25 pizzas. When asked ifthe delivery service was a large profit maker Boettner asserted, "We run the delivery trucks more as aservice than a profit maker." Besides the loss in pizza, Shakeys has already lost two oven doors thisschool year. About two months ago Shakey stopped delivering to Buchanan Towers because ofnumerous thefts and damage to the trucks. The A W has dropped its service to the dorm roomsbecause of thefts from its trucks and intimidation of the girls it employs. A dorm dweller must now meetthe trucks in front of the dorm if he wants service. Fred Marshall, manager of the A W, asserted thatsince the start of the new policy there has not been as much trouble this year as last. Marshall stated,"We had a lot of trouble with boys poking and jostling our girls. They kept trying to get them into theirrooms and that sort of stuff so we had to do something to protect them." Not one of the restaurantsseemed willing to discontinue their service and it was agreed that most of the dealings they had with theWestern campus was of an honest and friendly nature.

When he did speak he used a very unenergetic voice that quietly told who had played what. On some occasions the voice would impart information aboutthe date of recording a particular record or information about the artist and then a segue into acommercial or more music. All of the voicing was done with something new in mind for the listener . . .honesty. The station was CKLG-FM, 99.3 mhz, in Vancouver, B.C. - The new format was qualitycontemporary music. The management of 'LG-FM realized that there was a post-pubescent audience for rock music. An audience that you could be honest with, an audience that would really be composed oflisteners and not just hearers. During this past vacation I went up to Vancouver and talked with some ofthe people who are responsible for CKLG-FM. I asked Frank Calahan, programme director, whataudience 'LG-FM was after? "We are aiming at the under-40 people who perhaps have gone beyond thehit music stage or would like something in addition to hit music. "Our AM station (CKLG 730 khz) is atop 30 hit music station of which there are many in Canada and the United States. "The concept of hitradio is that you take the top 30 most popular records and play them over and over again in a repetitionfactor of about three hours. "It's designed for people to listen to for 15 or 20 minutes in their car and for20 to 30 minutes on their way to a movie or whatever. "It's not designed for anyone to sit and listen to24 hours a day or even three or four hours a day, so it's got its place. "However hit pop music, or popmusic or rock and roll or whatever has evolved from rock and roll, has evolved a much more serious side. "If 18 to 49 year-bids were similar enough in their taste that you could group then that's who we wouldbe after, but you can't get that broad or it will start to antagonize people. "We don't program the radiostation with that group in mind it just seems at this point, at this time, that those and the forerunners.Those are the people who are attracted to our radio station. "That's quite a shock to all of you, you don't believe that but it is. Eighteen to 35 year-old men make up 80 per cent of our audience. They're theleaders, that's a starting point, they will act as sort of disciples and it will grow from there." "Howsuccessful has 'LG-FM been?" "With our old format we had a w e e k l y ( a u d i e n c e) accumulationof about 20 thousand. When we went to our current format it doubled. (The weekly accumulation is thenumber of people who listen to a station once per week or oftener, if you listen every day you count asone person, if you listen just once a week you still count as one.) "From 1968 to March last year, ourtotals would fluctuate from 40 to 80 thousand, for no apparent reason, nothing would, change. "I have asneaking hunch iMs t h e survey causing the fluctuation. I don't suggest the survey is wrong . . . I thinkour audience has some built-in problems. "I don't believe in the ratings, as a matter of fact as programdirector I am reluctant to make a change based on a bad rating. "We just received a low rating, a verydisappointing rating, but I don't believe in it. "I think what is happening is a lot of 17, 18 and 19 year-olds and people who are a little older, are telling the people who own department stores and some of theother clients, "Gee! All my friends listen to CKLG-FM, it's got to be the most popular radio station." Ithink they have heard this story so often that they are b e g i n n i n g to believe it themselves, at least to the point of buying time on the radio s t a t i o n , buying advertising, trying it and finding it works." Last April CKLG-FM reverted back to a hybrid automation system. Announcers would make tapes to give the identification of who played what and then an operator would play the tape after (usually) playing therecord, some of the same tapes were used three days in a row in the same ^time period. From atechnique viewpoint the operation was extremely sloppy, the wrong records were played, the correctrecords omitted, or the voice tape would be running through the next hour's selections while a recordwas playing. Calahan was asked to comment on the shakeup. "That was a bad decision made by thiscompany. And management of this company will admit this today as being one of their worst decisions. "It was based on a very black economic forecast on conditions in this country. A very bleak and dismalforecast. At the time the people were let go, we were way under the. projected budget, we were at apoint where profits were far below where we projected they would be. "This was the first time in eight ornine years that our company was faced with this kind of problem, we had been exceeding budgets up tothat point, so this came as quite a shock. "I think-we made a very bad decision. I say we; I was in onthat decision too. I wasn't in favor of it but it happened. "It did one thing, it let us know that our listenersin Vancouver were not going to let their air waves be used in that way. They made themselves heard like you wouldn't believe. They wrote letters to the c o m m i s s i o n , , they even telephoned long distanceto the commission in Toronto." The commission that Calahan referred to was the CRTC (CanadianRadio and Television Commission), it is comparable to the FCC in the United States. I asked Calahanabout the r e l a t i o n s between the commission and 'LG-FM. "There was some concern that thecommission might not understand some of the music we program or some of the people we have on theair, but the commission has shown us that they do understand, that we do have a nucleus of a qualitystation. "I think we are using our portion of the FM band in the way the commission wants. We don'thave 24 hours a day of automated golden oldies, FM wasn't meant for that sort of thing. "We are waiting for a new set of regulations concerning FM stations and I think it is going to demand that people withFM licenses get serious about those FM stations and I don't think they are . going to tolerateautomated jukeboxes on FM. "I think they are going to ask that FM be used for what we call arts, letters and science radio stations. "It means quality music, I think Dylan is quality music and I think that thecommission is going to say if you're playing Bob Dylan that's good." Of the dozen or so disc jockeysthat have been on CKLG-FM all are different, yet they all have an honesty about them that you find on no other radio station in our area. A type of elan develops between the listener and the "voice" at the otherend of the space you're in. Calahan was asked about the things he looks for when he hires an announcer for FM. "After a person has been on the air you probably should be able to know how they feel about alot of things even if he hasn't directly told you . . . the ability to communicate, the ability to expressthemselves." (Calahan spoke briefly about the old days of radio) . . . "the days when you knew exactlywhat you were supposed to say . . . meaningless . . . no substance.' But we are changing, we have tobe able to express ourselves. (In the old days) we had to be positive about everything . . . put on a happy face like a stewardess on an airplane. "I would like to see a grumpy stewardess once in a while." Isthere any pressure from the government because you are expressing an alternative opinion other thanconsensus about drugs? "I'm sure we would get pressure from our commission if we were to go on theair and advocate the use of drugs or program music that advocated the use of drugs and that's fair. "Idon't know of any music that actually advocates the use of drugs, most of the music that deals withdrugs is really only indicating that drugs are there, it is a part of our society, it's happening FRANKCALAHAN PROGRAMME DIRECTOR CKLG AM/FM We wouldn't advocate the use of marijuana wouldwe? I don't know. "We would give access to an expert who said it would be legalized, hell we have.That's such a tough situation. "By the way, all the FCC in the states said was that the owners,managers and licensees should know what the lyrics in the songs are and what they mean and I thinkthat a lot of American broadcasters took that to mean that they were to get any dirty lyrics off or anydrug oriented lyrics off the air. They o n l y wanted them (the b r o a d c a s t e r s ) to beknowledgeable about the songs." "In Canada, the same thing would apply if the commission wanted toknow why we play a record with fuck in it and, if we have an answer. "If we say that if we took the wordout the record would no longer be relevant, they would say okay! "But if we said 'Oh, I didn't know theword was in there,' that's the time they are going to start worrying about allowing you to keep yourlicense, because that's irresponsible. "I think that's a comparable situation with what's happening withyour FCC in the states, they do want us to know what the lyrics are saying and to know what they mean and they want us to question whether this should go on. Is this going to do any damage, is this incontradiction with what parents are telling their children . . . they want us to get responsible." Gen.Studies 001...

Under the constitutionratified last Spring quarter, an All-College Senate representing students, faculty, administration andcollege staff will "review and recommend" policies to the Board of Trustees. Organization of the 43-member Senate, its constituencies, councils, commissions and committees, is outlined in theconstitution and bylaws of Western. Faculty and student constituencies are divided into academicdepartments. The faculty is represented by 23 senators; two senators from physical education, three from language arts, four from the social sciences, and three from science and mathematics. Fine and appliedarts is represented by three senators, with education adding two more representatives. There are five at-large positions, including three senators representing Fairhaven, Huxley and the College of EthnicStudies. Students are represented by a 12-member delegation as follows; one senator from physicaleducation, one from language arts, two from the social sciences, one from science and mathematics, one from fine and applied arts, one from education and one senator representing the graduate studiesprogram. Huxley and the College of Ethnic Studies are allowed one representative each, although they are now included in the four at-large positions. Fairhaven is represented by one senator. The administrationis represented by two at-large positions, while the staffâ€”custodial, secretarial, etc.â€”is represented bythree .senators. Western's President Charles J. Flora serves as president of the Senate. In addition, hechairs the Senate Executive Committee. A chairman to preside at regular meetings, and a secretary torecord and publish the minutes are chosen by the Senate from its members. Commissions and councils The Academic Coordinating Commission (ACC) has authority over "all matters relating to curriculum,teaching, load, academic programs and the like." Councils serving under ACC include the UndergraduateCouncil, which governs all undergraduate degree programs except those of the cluster colleges, aGraduate Council governing all graduate programs and a Research Council having authority over allresearch programs and proposals. Other councils serving directly under the Senate are the Business andFinance Council, the College Relations Council and the College Service Council. The Business andFinance Council is responsible for all business, financial and all other non-academic administrative policy. Besides reviewing budget requests to the state, the council lopks after salaries and fringe benefits. TheCollege Relations Council determines Western's relationship to the community, state and country. Thecouncil is headed by the "principal college relations administrator," according to the constitution. Studenthealth services, financial aids, inter-collegiate athletics and intramural athletics are governed by theCollege Service Council. The seven-member Senate Executive Committee is charged with establishing the agenda in addition to appointing committees to deal with elections, long-range planning, legislation andstudent rights and grievances. Implementation of the All-College Senate will not mean the end of studentgovernment at Western, as the constitution provides that each constituency may organize as it sees fit.Benefit increase proposed for collegiate veterans Veterans struggling to make ends meet under the G.I.Bill may have some help on the way in the form of a bill proposed by S e n . George McGovern, D-S.Dak. The main provisions of the b i l l call for complete reimbursement of tuition and fees, up to$3,000, and substantial increases in the monthly allowances. Under the existing G.I. Bill, a singleveteran receives only $175 per month to cover tuition, books, living costs and all other expenses. Thesemonthly allotments, if the McGovern bill is passed intact, would be raised to $214 and up to $414 for avet with three dependents, as compared to the present $243. These amendments to the G.I. Bill areaimed at the Vietnam era veteran in an attempt to give them a more complete program of assistance for a higher education. The proposal also calls for an allocation of $65 million for d r u g and p s y c h i a t ric rehabilitation program, and modernization of the Armed Forces. W i t h the hopes of establishing anall-volunteer armed forces, McGovern calls for an updating of military life in several areas: military justice, participation in political and civic life and pay. The Western branch of the League of Collegiate Veterans believing the McGovern proposal is one of the most important pieces of legislation to affect the veteransince the advent of the G.I. Bill. They have instituted a petition drive to back the bill. The club is going to have a booth set up inside the Viking Union main entrance Jan. 17-22 supplied with copies of theMcGovern proposal and the petition. All veterans and anyone interested in supporting the proposal isurged stop by the booth and to write to their Congressmen. The bill will be voted on in March, so actsoon. Fall legislature attendance The Associated Students Legislature will meet Tuesday at 5:00 p.m. inroom 224 of the Viking Union. This will be the first meeting of the 1972 year.

Biasini noted that the age of electronic music has opened many newfields to modern composers. "With voltage control many things become accessible to musicians whichwere never possible with mechanical instruments," he said. The music department will offer a course inelectronic music beginning Summer quarter. The class will be open to all interested students, althoughsome background in either electronics or music would be helpful. Biasini hopes that the class will be asuccess. He pointed out that there is a musical institution in Italy which offers a master's degreeprogram in electronic music. The synthesizer will be "played" on Feb. 8 in an invitational jazz concert.The music department has entered the electronic age to the switched-on beat of a music synthesizer.The s y n t h e s i z e r was purchased last Spring quarter at a cost of nearly $10,000. According to Cole Biasini of the music department, the new synthesizer is "an extremely sophisticated instrument whichis theoretically capable of producing almost any sound imaginable." The synthesizer was acquiredthrough a faculty research grant, and it serves the college interdepartmentally. The physics departmentuses the synthesizer to study sound, and wave forms which it creates electronically. Richard Vawter ofthe physics department said he began utilizing the music synthesizer to study wave forms but he isnow mostly interested in "learning to play the thing." The synthesizer is also used Food stamps If you're running low on bread (either the spending or the eating kind) and your net income is under $195.00 amonth, you are eligible to receive food stamps, according to the local office of the Department of PublicAssistance (DPA). Just a year ago the food stamp issue was a big one to many hungry WhatcomCounty residents. Based on findings of a study on Whatcom County by the Department of Agriculture,emergency regulations were put into force. The major problem was that for an individual to be eligible toget food stamps he had to prove that he did not "share household facilities or food" with any non-relatives. However, no acceptable proof was specified, and no proof was accepted. Many people weredenied food stamps simply because they lived with unrelated people. Changes were made in the latterpart of January, 1971, and the regulations have stayed the same since then. Now, in order to receivefood stamps one must show proof that his previous month's income did not excede the limit and mustsign a statement that he "stores, eats and prepares his food individually," according to Linda Weed whois presently in charge of the food stamp program. Wage stubs, G.I. Bill or Social Security forms, or astatement from the person's parents are accepted as proof of income, Mrs. Weed added. During October 1971, the latest figures available, Whatcom County had 2,059 and 4,717 individuals receiving focxistamps, according to DPA administrator Dean Rutledge. Debaters travel to SPC tourney Western'sdebate team trave'ls to Seattle Pacific College for a two day tournament this weekend. The team hasacquired four new debaters who will accompany the 20 team m e m b e r s jÂ»oing to the competition.The team will also begin competing in the Puget Sound Forensics Conference, a state competitionorganized by Western's debate coach, Larry Richardson, to give Puget Sound area college debatersmore o p p o r t u n i t i e s for debate experience. The team, according to Richardson, is moving intomore prestigious and climactic competition. They are learning the finer points of their cases and willprobably have a ,gqodv season."

Flora and AS President Tod Sundquist. Beginning SummerQuarter, tuition will increase from the current fee of $149 per quarter to $165 per quarter. Specific costbreakdowns for Summer session fees include the $165 fee for resident students enrolled.in the nine-week session and carrying more than six credits; and $111 for the six-week session if enrolled for morethan four credits. Non-residents will be paying $266 for the nine-week session and $178 for the six-week session. Part-time students, including those students taking short courses and workshops will berequired to pay $22 for each credit hour, with the minimum fee set at $44. Those students auditingcourses will be required to pay $10 per course, the only fee reduction over current fees. Last ^Summer'sauditor fee was $40. Comparison between the new fees and those last Summer show that students were required to pay $149 for the nine-week session if a resident and $ tOO'for the six-week session. Non-residents enrolled in the nine-week session paid $ 140 and $160 for the six-week session. Part-timestudents paid $20 per credit hour and auditors paid $40 if taking one or more courses per quarter.Following the action taken by the Trustees, the state office of Program Planning and Fiscal Management will receive notification and will initiate the necessary contact with the federal government's PriceBoard. Before voting, the Trustees listened to statements from the gallery, including those made byPresident Flora and Sundquist. "I cannot support an increase of any kind.

"Western students have faced three major fee increases in the past fouryears. The cost of a college education has increased more rapidly than the cost of living, placing thefinancial burden on the students. "We should take pride in efforts to lower the cost of a collegeeducation, and look into the possibility of seeking legislation to place some ethical level on fees," Florasaid. Flora raised the suggestion of placing a percentage limit on the total cost students should berequired to bear, as a ceiling price, which could be presented to the State legislature. He informed theTrustees that there is currently no guideline on fees in the state. "It is a sad situation. None of us heredo this with joy or because we desire it," he said.

WhileWestern's Class of '71 is not exactly starving to death on the job market, they're not exactly burning itup either as about one out of every two graduates reported finding a job of any kind. A report justreleased by' the Placement Office shows that j o b s are a premium in Washington State, and if thetrend continues the situation will not get any better for a while. As of Nov. 1, 1971, the report shows ofthe 1,429 graduates served, only 818 had found jobs. There were 303 former students still looking foremployment and the rest were distributed in graduate schools, m i l i t a r y s e r v i c e andhomemaking. Of the 933 education majors graduated last year, 430 reported finding teaching positionswhile 156 were holding down jobs in other fields. However, 181 future teachers were not able to find anytype of employment. But if the education majors seem to be having a hard time in a tight job market,then so are the arts and sciences graduates. From a total of 496 graduates, 232 had found a job byNov. 1, while 112 were still looking. Thirty-seven graduates d e c i d e d to not seek employment; 50 didnot reply. The military got 19 grads and 34 went on to graduate school. The r e m a i n i n g 12 took uphomemaking. Although the report does not list the type of jobs found by the 232 former students, LouisLallas, director of the Placement Office, said many went into management or white collar positions.Still, former students are reporting a hard time finding a jobs in supermakets and gas stations. Onegraduate said, "To even get a job pumping gas now you need a college degree." And graduates aretaking a cut in pay to get their jobs. The average beginning salary of Western's male graduates in 1969-70 was $667 a month. It has now dropped to $648 in 1970-71. "This reflects not only the tight jobmarket," the report states, "but also is partially an indication of the willingness of candidates to take jobs that don't require or compensate for college degrees." And for those students who say money is not afactor in finding a job are in a minority, according to a survey by social psychologist Dr. Harold Edrich of New York. "The glamorous chimera of the counter-culture actually turns out to represent a very smallpercentage of young Americans," Dr. Edrich said. "The old-fashioned values of marriage, family, financial security, savings, a good jobâ€”those are the ones to which t h e great majority still subscribe." Hewent on to say that two out of five young people surveyed said they were "very concerned" aboutfinancial security, while one out of six counted himself as "somewhat unconcerned" about moneymatters. But for the Western graduate to even find a job, it took more, leg work than in the past andfewer places to apply. In 1968-69, a total of 104 companies visited Western for recruiting purposes". Last year the number dropped to 49 companies, just one above number in 1965. Also the average number of interviews for arts and sciences students increased considerably from 1970 when it was 7.15. In 1970-71 the average student had 12 interviews. Recruiters were frank to admit they were "skimming off thecream" as GPA, leadership abilities, military or volunteer service became more important foremployment. S t u d e n t s s e e k i ng employment found it necessary to make contacts with morecompanies than before, with 1 some students reporting an average of one positive response for every 12letters sent out. Some students found temporary employment when F e d e r a l funding becameavailable for social services. In program such as Employment Supplement Program (ESP), studentswere employed for 13 weeks in some non-profit or public service organization. But after 13 weeks it isback to the streets. Now for the bad news . . . . The number of education majors has increased from610 in 1965-66 to 933 in 1970-71, yet t h e number of schools interviewing has fallen off sharply. Therewere 233 Washington State schools interviewing students in 1965-66 and that number has fallen to 59for last year. It was the same story for. out of state schools which has , - Â» â€¢ â€¢ â€¢ Â» â€¢ â€¢Â« KMffl REACH 1 0 , 0 0 0 READERS WITH Display Classifieds STUDENTS, FACULTY, STAFF GET THIS MUCH SPACE FOR ONLY $ 2 . 0 0 SAVE UP TO 75% OVER STANDARD CLASSIFIED RATESCALL THE ACTION LINES - â€¢ 676-3.161 ,rr-..-a7.6.-,3.16.0Â»-MÂ»^. dropped from 66 to 15. While the number of schools interviewing dropped, the number of credentials sent out has climbed up to 9,467from 6 , 9 2 2 in 1 9 6 5 - 6 6. But Lallas said the number of freshmen this year who reported they wereseeking an education major is lower than in the past, which means within a couple of years the numberof teachers seeking jobs should even out or go down. The hardest pressed to find a job were thestudents seeking social service work, but with the Federal funding the job market should loosen up alittle. Also Master of Arts candidates looking for community college positions had a hard time,, but outof 21 registered with the office, 12 did eventually find -jobs. Through all these rather glum figures Lallasremains fairly optimistic about Western graduates finding employment. He recommends that studentsremain flexible when looking for jobs. "What the students have to recognize is that they cannot burytheir heads, but they have to prepare themselves for alternative decisions," he said. "And they shouldn'tnarrow down their fields." He also recommended students start early, "when they are sophomores," inbecoming acquainted with the Placement Office so they can have a better chance at getting a job.l ^s s^'* I HAVE BEEN A LONG TIME WALKING FROM YOU YET I CAN STILL TURN AND SEEYOU WAVING' Cards For Time and Hearts at MACMORGAN'S HALLMARK BELLINGHAM MALLOPEN EVES SUN MACMORGAN'S LAKEWAY 104 EAST MAGNOLIA AT THE BUS STOP For $5 a day and 5C a mile For information and reservations contact.

CenterRudy Thomas bombed in two 15-footers to give Western a permanent lead. Thomas finished the evening with 20 points, leading the Vik attack which saw six men in double figures. Following Thomas, GaryWhite and Mike Franza scored 15 each, Bob Nicol contributed 13, Mike Preston tossed in 12 and Roger Fuson added 10. Western opened up a 54-27 half time lead, despite going nearly six minutes without a field goal. The Viks filled the gap, however, with six free throws until Chip Kohr's lay-in broke the freeze.Western's defense held off the Saints during the dry spell. The Viks led Carroll in every statistic,shooting 53.4 per cent to 30.7 per cent from the field and 71.9 per cent to 57.1 per cent from the line.Western also held the rebounding edge by a convincing 57-21 margin. "This was probably one of ourbest efforts of the year," said Viking coach Chuck Randall. "It's a relief to sit back and enjoy one ofthese games." Most of Western's wins have been of the heart-stopping, last minute variety. Randall wasable to clear his bench for the last six minutes in this one. Nicol and Preston scored their double figurepoints in reserve roles. Tom Mount chipped in eight counters, including a free throw that put the Big Blue over the century mark. Kohr also had eight and Mike Buza scored two. For Carroll, Fritz Wolk led thescoring with 12 points, followed by Jack Sanders with 11 and Lynn Mavenkamp with 10. Mavenkampwas the only foul casualty, although a total of 57 fouls were whistled.

Western fared well in theearly weight classes against Eastern Washington by winning five of the first six matches. Mike Compton recorded the fastest pin for the Vikings this season by finishing his man in 2:36 of the second period.Against Central, the Vikings battled the nationally ranked Wildcats down to the wire in the majority ofthe matches losing or winning by a couple of points in most cases. The Sporting Word By KENTSHERWOOD Sports Editor And Noah's doing flip-flops I should have become at least slightlysuspicious when I opened a Christmas present over the holidays to reveal a copy of Webster's NewWorld Dictionary of the American Language, Second College Edition no less. The accompanying cardread "This is the American Language! Use it!" The "gift" was sent by an anonymous sports fan, who isalso, for reasons known only to jhim and his grammar teacher, an English major. It seems that he can'tunderstand why sports writers refuse to use simple, regular, old-fashioned English words whendescribing the .Vikings latest conquest. What's wrong with saying Western clobbered so and so after abig win? It sounds to dull to say: "Western won," or "Western beat Bellingham High School." It soundseven duller to say Western lost. So in these rare occurances words like "edged" or "slipped by" are usedin its place. Most literature is given some metaphoric leeway in its discriptive prose. Why then shouldjournalists be restricted? Especially sports writers, since there is always sufficient reason to resort towords which convey just a little more than whether the team won or lost. The main gripe that NoahWebster's defenders have is that "literary jocks" insist on using words in the wrong context. Take theword "ducat" for example. A ducat, according to Noah, is a gold or silver coin used in old Europeantimes. Any sports writer worth his press pass knows that a ducat is a ticket for an event, right? With allof this firmly imbedded in mind for two or three seconds, an explanation of sports jargon will be quicklydisseminated so that you may easily find your way through the Western Front's sports pages this andfollowing quarters. Actually, it's probably easier to skip all this altogether, but as long as you havejourneyed this far Concerning basketball, if a team wins by over twenty points, the contest is a"convincing" or "easy" win. The team has coasted to victory with ease. If the team wins by thirty or more, the game was a "laugher" from start to finish. Wins of about ten points or so are "down to the wire"games which the team fought hard for. They are also classisfied as "well-earned wins." Anything underfive points are automatically called "nailbiters," "heartstoppers" or "cardiac cases." Coaches like to termthese as "clutch wins" and say things like "it's good to win the close ones." Losses are different storiesaltogether. A two point loss is a "heartbreaker" and "it could have gone either way with just a break ortwo." If the loss comes in overtime, then it was a "moral victory." Unfortunately, there has yet to be atournament devised for teams with moral victories. If the team loses by more than ten points, they were"in it all the way, but ran out of gas," or whatever is used these days to win ball games. If the game isdecided by twenty points then the loser had an "off night," or maybe injuries prevented the best possibleplay. If it's over thirty points, then the team was either "outclassed" or the game never happened in thefirst place. Still, it is the inherent right of all sports writers to misuse the English language as the casewarrents. If the game suggests that the team "blew their opponents off the court," then that doesn't mean that they brought out a monstrous fan. A "staggering triumph" does not necessarily suggest that thevictors were under the influence at the time. But all these liberties taken with the King's English are forthe benefit of not only the reader, but also for the writer,as it relieves the boredom by allowing him to pensuch prolific prose as "the Vikings castigated Central," or whoever. (That word came from the anonymous Christmas present.) In case you're wondering though, that funny flip-flop noise you hear when you read a sports story is Mr. Webster turning in his grave. Lee Andersen and Mike Donneley kept their unbeatenstrings intact by decisioning their opponents by scores of 2-0 and 11-4, respectively. Andersen placedfourth last year in the NAIA Tournament in Boone, N.C., wrestling at 158. Central's Greg Gowens, lastyear's national junior champion from Bellingham High School, defeated Chuck Smith 17-0. The defeat toCentral was Western's first loss of the year. The Vikings record now stands at 4-1. Statistics on theVikings show that the while Western has scored more takedowns, reverses and predictions than theiropponents, they are weak in escapes which prevents the team to control the match as well. Of theteams in the Evergreen Conference, four of them, Central, Southern Oregon, Oregon College and Oregon Tech are rated in the top ten in the nation. Coach Bryant expressed his confidence in the team bysaying, "I feel that they can place in the top ten. They have the potential." JV's ground Flyers, 87-74Using the holiday break to shake off two straight losses, Western's junior varsity cagers dumpedMcChord Air Force Base 87-74 last week. The win gave the Vikings a 4-2 record. Coach Rich Tucker'ssquad was scheduled to meet the Simon Fraser jayvees last night. Western utilized the fine shooting of 6-3 guard Mark Salzman and 6-5 Vz forward Chuck Fisher to turn what was a close contest into arunaway. Salzman finished with 22 points and Fisher followed with 19. Salzman started off the game hot as he hit four of Western's first five field goals. Fisher fired in eight points late in the game to put it out of reach. Jim Jackson led the Flyers with 22 points, 19 of them in the first half. Jim Oldenberg had -17.Two other Vikings scored in double figures. Dick Bissell, center from Bellevue's Newport High School,had 14 and Jim Hotvet, from Central Kitsap, had 12. McChord stayed in the game most of the way,trailing only 36-32 at the half, but were outlasted by the young Vikings. Western saw its three game win streak snapped earlier in the season with a 67-66 loss to Simon Fraser. Western followed a cold firsthalf, at which they trailed, 44-35, with a long comeback. The following night, playing their fifth game inseven nights, the Viks traveled to Auburn and were dismantled by Green River Community College, 94-70. IM meeting tomorrow The dribblers at Western will soon move from the Coffee Shop to Carver Gym, as intramural basketball begins a new season. A captains' meeting for interested persons will be heldtomorrow at 3 p.m. in CV109. The teams will be split into leagues with a round-robin to be run in eachleague. The 16 teams with the best records will then compete in the All-College Tournament at the endof this quarter. The games will consist of two 20 minute periods with no time-outs, except in the last five minutes by the trailing team. DON'T EAT GRAPES MAKE WINE OUTA THE JUICE "WE'VE GOTEVERYTHING" 1017 N.

"They knew my methods were radical, yet they'd say 'I don'tknow what you're doing, but please don't stop!' " Peg Howard of Bellingham was relating her teachingexperiences in North Bend, Wash,, where she proved to several parents that hyperactive children can be taught in a classroom situation, often with astounding results. Hyperactive children have l o n g beenregarded as incorrigible, retarded, and generally unacceptable in a classroom situation. Theirhyperactivity forces them to extreme levels of physical action resulting in short attention spans. Theyare usually unable to concentrate on any class projects for more than a few seconds at a time. A greatdeal of medical research has been devoted to the hyperactive child, yet until recently it was generallyassumed that the only way to subdue a hyperactive child to the point where he could effectively betaught was with the use of dextroamphetamine, commonly known as speed. But Mrs. Howard throughher work with hyperactive children at North Bend, has proved, as she says, "that a little love and a lot ofpatience will work with anyone." Her style of .teaching is radically removed from normal teachingtechniques, lead fellow teachers at North Bend to b i t t e r ly complain that her "noisy classroom is nota learning situation," but her results have proved otherwise. Mrs. Howard's dream has long been todesign and run a school especially for these hyperactive children, and now she is planning to start thatschool here in Bellingham. Mrs. Howard and co-director Rich Borman have recently founded the FourthCorner Foundation, at 210 N. State St., a 14 room mansion in which the school will be conducted.When asked how she will finance the school, she replied, "I'm what you would call an o l d - f a s h i o ne d p a t r i o t ic American. I don't want to apply for a governmental grant, but hopefully we can make itwith tuitions for out of state students and a lot of hard work." She's already had support from theBellingham community for the program. One former resident of Bellingham, Dwight Wallace who recently passed away, left in his will 5 acres of land to the school. Fourth Corner Foundation will not be only aschool, however. Rooms will be set aside for the Northwest Free University to use, and several highschool dropouts, even reformed drug addicts will assist Mrs. Howard in her ambitious undertaking. " I 'm hoping to recruit education majors, science majors, professors and anyone else from Western who isseriously interested in learning to teach my method. She uses the technique of teaching mathematicsthrough art combined with allowing children to work in an unstructured atmosphere to produce heramazing results. Discipline is minimal, she says. "The only discipline I ever have to use is forcing thekids to go outside for recess period, their desire for learning is that great." PEG HOWARD "You see,these kids quite often have an extremely high I.Q., but because of their hyperactivity their span ofattention is extremely short. This has led teachers to believe that they are inferior mentally, but if given a chance they learn so fast they soon l e a v e others of average intelligence far behind." Mrs. Howardsays she hopes t o enroll children from Bellingham for a two-week session to be renewed. Thesechildren would then go back to their school classes, showing other children what they have learned.While high school-aged kids are working with the children, hor efully they'll be able to s e t t l e their own personal-problems. "By helping others, they'll be themselves at the same time," says Mrs. Howard."But I have to have college students helping me! Tell them to come down to 210 State St. anytime, orcall 676-0155."

This includes a $105,000 cutback in the health center which would reduceit to a first aid treatment center and a $55,000 cutback in the Counseling Center which would reduce it toa referral center. Two exceptions to the Mitchell Report were added. One specifies that no furtherreductions will occur to the Wilson Library. The second holds the Dean of Students office to a $185,000cutback but leaves the office "the flexibility to ameliorate the problems of the Health Services and theCounseling Center." How the dean's office will accomplish the cutback and still maintain a health servicewhich the director testified has been underfunded for years and a counseling center is yet to beanswered. "For me to reduce by $185,000," stated C.W. "Bill" McDonald, dean of students, "somethinghas to be scathed." Other student services under the dean's office subject to possible further cuts arefinancial aids and residence halls which have already received cuts. Dr. Kenneth Jernberg, director of thehealth center, stated the near-elimination of that service would mean students would pay three times asmuch for the medical services presently provided. "If the health centerJs eliminated," he said, "it(Western) will be the only state college without some form of health care." Vicki Robbins, associatedstudent body vice president, said she strongly opposes the closure of the health center. She was toldthere was no way the county could absorb 8,000 students for medical help if the center was closed.Robbins urged the board to consider the impact of the move, warning, "It is easier to close than reopen." "This health service is important to me," another student said. "It would make a difference on whichcollege I would choose." Another student remarked, "If there is no health service I am not coming backhere next year. It would be economically unfeasible." Saundra Taylor, director of the Counseling Center,sajd the consequence of the cut would be a 55 per cent reduction in the center personnel, leaving astudent-counselor ratio of 1-2,600. She claimed the cutback would have an effect on the instructionalprograms by denying the psychology department some graduate student training the center nowsponsors. Taylor added that the Bellingham community could not accomodate the students'psychological problems, and the academic community does not have the time or training. Althoughattendance dwindled during the four-hour-long Board of Trustee meeting, large numbers of studentsshowed up in the packed auditorium in Miller Hall. The trustees' foremost business was adopting theMitchell Report with its exceptions and the so-called Mischaikow Report which dealt solely with facultyreductions. Both reports are recommendations as to how to meet a $3 million reduction desired by thelegislature and a 73 per cent staffing formula mandated by it. However, the total reductions recommended by the two reports amount to $2.2 million. The board noted if the legislature in January holds to the $3million cut, Western will be required to further reduce by $800,000. Upon accepting the MischaikowReport, the board provided that business manager and vice president of academic affairs review the totalnumber of FTE's or academic positions allocated for 1974-75. It is believed that changed enrollmentfigures and other developments may mean five positions can be saved. During the meeting an AmericanFederation of Teachers position paper was passed out advocating alternatives to faculty layoffs. AnAmerican Association of University Professors paper urged the Mischaikow Report not be put intooperation. Although the budget crisis at Western is grave, many college personnel are hoping a collegelobby can persuade the legislature in January not to require the full $3 million cutback. Also the collegelobby is hoping to raise the staffing formula above the 73 per cent mandated by the legislature. Thiswould result in saved faculty positions also. Central Washington State College and Evergreen StateCollege are wrestling with similar budget cutbacks ordered by the legislators. HIGHER COSTS -Students would pay three times as much for medical services if the health center is cut, according to Dr.Kenneth Jernberg, the center's director. Committee stresses health aids closure Documents maycontradict by KEITH MYETTE The question of which representatives sit as official spokesmen at Boardof Trustees meetings is in doubt. On the recommendation of President Charles J. Flora, the senateexecutive committee implemented part of the senate constitution concerning representation at itsmeeting Oct. 23. Several members of the college community, although not debating the legitimacy of themove, are wondering why action was taken at this time. Section nine of the constitution replaces the AS President as student representative with the student at-large senator with the most votes during the lastelection. Faculty Council chairman George Gerhold would also not sit as an official representative. Florasaid implementation of the provision could have been earlier, but saw his action as a cooperative movewith the senate. AS President John Wolfe said the AS President was the only person able to representall of Western's students. He also pointed out the obvious discrepancy between the AS and senatedocuments and questioned the legality of the section of the constitution. The by-laws of the AS state that "the association shall be the representative organization of all the students to the college and thecommunity." _, The senate constitution retains Flora as administration spokesman and Brian Copenhaver as senate chairman (and faculty spokesman), and mmmmmmmm. *mmt*mmmmm replaces Wolfewith James Kennedy, student at-large senator. Gerhold said that it was up to the board to determinewhere he would sit as spokesman for the council. "My primary concern is to represent council. I reallydon't care where I sit," he said. However, Gerhold did request the trustees to recognize the FacultyCouncil at the board's meeting yesterday. Kennedy, a former AS president, said he saw the. senate'saction "as a transition from the old form of governance to the new." Recognition of student senators asofficial spokesmen "does not preclude others to be represented," he said. (Any group can attend trusteemeetings.) Copenhaver said he couldn't ignore the constitution when the issue was brought up. "There'snothing surprising about implementation, it's just a matter of asking 'why now?'" he said. Kennedy isworking nights and may not be able to attend meetings this quarter. Flora said he hoped that Kennedy"will recognize the importance of his presence" and make arrangements to attend the meetings.Although the constitution does not have provisions for substitution, Copenhaver said that there would be a movement in the senate to allow official student representation-either through an ad hoc device or aconstitutional amendment. Doug Potter, student member of the executive committee, said thatimplementation at this time was unfortunate, but he couldn't see what the ugmgx^Jf !,ftf?8fftfeJ....U.M.m.U,M.U.11.1 HI A by RIC ROFF Western's student health service is threatened withnearly total elimination due to a recommendation by the Select Committee on Service Programs, (theMitchell report) Students will face rising medical costs, higher insurance premiums and inconvenience if the service is discontinued, according to Kenneth Jernberg, director of student health services. TheMitchell report recommends that "the college discontinue offering medical services except for emergency first-aid treatment." The report also recommends that "the college develop an alternative healthinsurance program for the students in c o o r d i n a t i o n with local agencies." The report supports the recommendation by saying present facilities are inadequate and receiving state funding to improve these facilities is doubtful. "No one really knows what emergency first-aid treatment means," Jernberg said,"but any service will cost a third or at least half of the present service." Jernberg says the question isnot whether students will get service or not, but what the quality of the service will be when communitydoctors are faced with 8,000 Western students. A local physician, Dr. Roy Broman, did not see theadditional 8,000 students as posing a significant problem. He cited statistics indicating that a generalpractitioner can serve approximately 3,000 patients. "And since college students are an exceptionallyhealthy group, the percentage is much higher," he said. With the cut of health services, a significantincrease in medical insurance would occur. "The cost would be three times as much," Jernberg said."With the dovetailing of community health services, the current rate of $13.85 would rise to $45 or $50 a quarter." "Students will have to decide which services are most important to them," he said. "Weshould either do our job right, or do nothing at all." Inside...

Energy shortages have forced government and industry to re-evaluate analysis methods oftransportation of people and freight. Last year, a White House task force prepared a study called "ThePotential for Energy Conservation." According to the report, conservation measures could save theequivalent energy of 7.3 million barrels of oil per day by 1980. This is roughly equal to two-thirds of theprojected oil imports by that time. According to the White House study, the largest energy savings couldbe accomplished in space heating and air conditioning in homes and commercial buildings. Betterinsulation and more efficient air conditioning could cut Budget cuts hinder counseling survival energyneeds to heat and cool buildings by 25 per cent, the study said. Transportation is also a large consumer of energy. The same study indicated a 20 per cent savings is possible in transportation. Such hugesavings could only be accomplished by strong government regulations. L a s t week, Secretary ofTransportation Rogers C.B. Morton said that the American people will have to adjust to smallerautomobiles from now on, because of the continuing fuel shortage. Recently, Jack B. Robertson of theWashington Environmental Council said, "it's environmentally profane to have a 4,000-pound car carry a115-pound woman." Of the methods of transporting people from one place to another the bicycle usesthe least energy, followed closely by walking. In descending order of efficiency (followed in parenthesesby the energy consumption in British Thermal Units or B.T.U. per passenger mile) are mechanical means of transportation in the city: Bicycles (200 B.T.U.), walking (300 B.T.U.), busses (3700), and cars(8100). In intercity transportation busses are the most efficient (1600 B.T.U.) followed by rail (2900), car(3400) and plane (8400). It is obvious that the automobile is a gross consumer of energy, and is at itsworst in urban traffic. In the city, the automobile averages more than forty times the energy consumptionof a bicycle to move a single passenger one mile. Strong government actions are likely in the next fewyears to limit the size of cars and the power of engines. Other likely restrictions include speed limits and restrictions on the use of automobiles. The Environmental Protection Agency has already set deadlinesfor some cities to ban automobiles from crowded downtown areas, and New York and other citiesalready levy stiff permit fees for downtown parking. The future indicates more such restrictions. Ifrecommended cuts for Western's Counseling Center go through, that facility will be hopelessly crippledand students will lose a voluntary, free and confidential counseling service which last year servedapproximately 17 per cent of the student body. At least that's how it's director, Saundra Taylor, sees it."The students are going to be hurt the worst," she said. "They're going to have to decide whether to stayat a place where there are no such services or go elsewhere." Current recommendations call for a$55,000 cutback in funds. This involves the elimination of 3.2 full-time c o u n s e l o r s , leaving 2.8counselors. The center is to provide "referral services only." Other recommendations call for thecoordination of academic and personal counseling through the Dean of Students office and other student personnel services. This, the committee contends, will "eliminate duplication," and "sustain an overallstrong and flexible counseling program." Taylor opposes the cuts, and says that as many as 800students could be judged to have problems of sufficient severity that they would have to be referred to the community in a given year. "The community mental health service," she asserts, "does not have thestaff to handle any large number of Western students." In support of this she cites a letter written byDonald Burgh, director of the Whatcom Mental Health Clinic, addressed to Howard Mitchell, chairman of the Select Committee on Service Programs. Burgh stated: "There is ho resource in. Whatcom Countycapable of accommodating that surge in needs. This clinic is strained to its capacity by the recentclosure of Northern State Hospital." Burgh then goes on to say that with the cutbacks the center wouldfind itself a "referral service with no place to refer students to." Taylor feels the training function of theCounseling Center has been all but overlooked by the committee and predicts the virtual collapse of thepresent internship program. At present, graduate students can work toward master's degrees bycounseling with and without supervision. Taylor believes the notion that with the cuts an "overall strongand flexible counseling program" could be maintained, indicates a basic misunderstanding of thepurposes and goals of the Counseling Center. Health, counseling cut opposed by NICK GARDNEROpponents to the proposed near-elimination of the Student Health Services and large proposed cut inWestern's Counseling Center made themselves heard Wednesday during a hearing on the MitchellReport which recommends cuts in college services. Also faculty members voiced dissatisfaction to the12-member committee that formulated the Mischaikow Report whose recommendation deals solely withfaculty allocation to academic units of the college. Both discussions were pre-hearings on the tworeports before they appeared in final form before the Board of Trustees yesterday. C.W. "Bill" McDonald,dean of students, stated he is opposed to all cuts in the student personnel area. Especially, heexpressed concern over the proposed $105,000 cut in the Student Health Center which would reduce it to only a first-aid service. "If this recommendation (set forth in the Mitchell Report) is accepted, Westernwill be the only institution of its kind in the state without a health service." "We won't be in a competitiveposition to recruit students," he added. He noted students would have to seek professional medicalservice at higher costs off campus. It was pointed out that the Health Center has a one year leadprogram to adjust to the cutback. However, Business Manager Don Cole said the service reductions areexpected to begin by the first of the year. McDonald also expressed concern that "there are less full-time equivalencies (FTE's) in the student Counseling Center than counterparts who have less students."Saundra Taylor, director of the Student Counseling Center, objected to a proposed $55,000 budget cutincluding three counselors and one classified staff. "The consequence of the cut to students isapparent," she said. "It will not leave enough staff to handle the press of students." Taylor said 17 percent of the student body "passed through the doors of the counseling center" last year. The center'sdirector also noted that the center overlaps with the psychology department in providing internships forgraduate student training. Howard Mitchell, economics professor and chairman of the Mitchell Report,replied that the committee's finding was that the center did more counseling than clinical work and thatresources in other areas are able to apply higher quality and more coordinated counseling. "It was moreallocation than could be justified considering the priorities," Mitchell replied defending his committee'srecommendation. Concerning the Mitchell Report, a spokesman for the personnel office said she strongly opposed any consolidation of her group of classified staff. An All-College Senate spokesman said thatbody is on record as recommending adequate funding for the Counseling Center and support for theHealth Clinic. Walter Robinson attacked the Mischaikow Report which outlines allocation of faculty peracademic unit as "untenable and unacceptable as such." He urged the senate not to recommend theproposed allocation. Representatives from technology, English, ethnic studies and physical educationalso expressed dissatisfaction with the proposed recommendation of the Mischaikow Report.

Define statements,says doctorate council jf The Graduate Council has postponed its decision on whether to approve adoctoral program in school psychology, pending the revision of several points. Some of the mainmisunderstandings were about the elective courses to be offered in the program. The argument was thatthere were too many elective hours. The title proposed by Dean J. Alan Ross for the Ph.D. was also apoint of disagreement. Ross argued that the title has to be specified, that is, it has to be called a Ph.D.in Education. Dr. Peter J. Elich, Chairman of the Psychology department, claimed that this title was notrelevant. Elich asked why it could not just be simply a Ph.D. Also, the general idea of how the studentsin this program would be prepared to become school psychologists was disputed. The discussion onthe proposal will be resumed Nov. 6 at the next Graduate Council meeting.

WE'LL. r\ceePT \0Ur\ CHECK... S editorial Testimony at the Board of Trustees meetingyesterday shed light on what Western's real task is between now and when the state legislature meets in January. We must show the legislators that we are not just a collection of academic and professionalprograms, services and equipment, any of which can be lopped off to let the others live. Western is atotal environment. We need the parts to sustain the whole. The official number-one priority for Western is providing strong liberal arts undergraduate education. If we believe this, we have to make it clear thismeans fostering the values of honesty, objectivity, a balance of individual and collective rights and theright of dissent. Furthering these values requires an environment without gaping holes that leave studentsand faculty unable to function. The argument is ridiculous that weighs the value of a library against acounseling center. A student in poor mental health is not even going to go in the library. A student low on funds because the financial aids service has been curtailed is not going to buy the expensive healthinsurance necessary because the campus health service has been cut. The interdependence of servicesand programs is endless. In order to convince the legislators to allocate the funds we need, we have toshow them what we want and why. We will sell ourselves short if we try to please by showing how much we can save by doing without. What will our reward be? Doing without. Unless we are willing to settle foran institution too weak to further the academic values which are the college's reason for being, we mustconvince the legislature to give us the funds we need. The legislature, in turn, will be selling the people of Washington short if it allows Western to limp toward a valueless, fragmented existence. commentary ]'Do it' in November! "Send them a message," - once the slogan of George Wallace - could well be thewatchword for Western students in the month of November. On two occasions, Nov. 6 for the state'sgeneral election, and late November for the AS fall elections, students will have the opportunity for directinput into student and societal concerns. Students have the chance by their vote to send the legislature a message - a message indicating the potential power of student voters - which might well improve thebargaining position of Western in January. Election measures themselves hold enough interest to warrant every student's vote. To the AS, students have the opportunity to send a message outlining theirconception of how AS may best fill their needs and reverse the trend of lessening student participation inAS affairs. It's your money, you ought to have a say in how it is spent. In the words of Jerry Ruben, "doit!" Vote in November.

ADVISER: Pete Steffens commentary Passing of tax will aid students Western students will pay fewer taxes if HJR-37 is approved in the generalelection, Nov. 6. Excluding tuition and fees, which are tax free, a student at Western spends$900to$1700a year according to a student resource survey by the Washington Council on HigherEducation (released Feb. 1973). This amount covers many taxable areas: housing, food, b o o k s and su p p l i e s, transportation, clothing and recreation. Assuming a 5% sales tax on most of these items a student pays $45-85 in direct state taxes each year. If HJR-37 passes this amount would be eliminated. Individuals with taxable incomes of less than $2,000 would owe no state income tax. 80% of Western's students fit this category, according to the resource survey. Those who earn $2-3,000 would pay about$50 in income tax, according to data from the State Department of Revenue, still less than they nowpay. Washington presently has one of the most regressive tax structures in the U.S. Simply, thismeans that the poor and middle classes pay a larger percent of their income in taxes than the rich. Forexample, a family of four whose income is less than $5,000 a year pays 10% of that in taxes, whereasthe same size family earning $50,000 pays only 3% of their income in taxes, according to the OfficialVoters Pamphlet. HJR-37 introduces a graduated income tax to replace the present tax structure andreduce this discrepancy. Most Western students come f r om solid middle-class backgrounds. TheSurvey shows family incomes of half the students average between $9-18,000. This group will profitslightly from an equalization of the tax structure. Most students and their families would benefit from agraduated income tax such as the one presented in HJR-37.

Editor, Western Front: The editors of the Western Front, in a show of unparalleled n a r r o w - m i n d e d n e s s and provincialism, have arbitrarily decided to throttle the debate on the Mideastwhich has enlivened the page of that "newspaper" for the past couple of weeks. The reasons given arethat "the debate has gone on long enough," and "students are no longer interested." Specifically, theFront has refused to print a rebuttal to the c l a i m s made in the "Commentary" column of Oct. 26, acolumn written by Larry Kuznetz of the Jewish Student Association challenging the views put forward bythe Young Socialist Alliance in the "Commentary" of Oct. 19. In the first place, this muzzling of debateis clearly in the interests of the state of Israel, which is dependant upon its propaganda monopoly in the United States to keep the arms and money flowing in. Without its official and unofficial support in theU.S., Israel could no longer continue its oppressive colonial existence. The Zionists do not want themyth they have created of "a defenselsss little country struggling for survival in the hostile Arab sea" tobe challenged by supporters of the Palestinian cause. The editors of the Front further claim that Prof.Zeigler, who has participated in this debate, does not want it to continue either. Is this true Prof.Zeigler? If so, why not? Could it be because you have already had your fingers burned? It it's not true, we call upon you to protest this action by the Front. Likewise, where does the Jewish Student Associationstand? Some clear answers, please! For the students and faculty of Western - as for the entireworldâ€”the question of the Mid-e a s t is of paramount importance. Is an issue that threatens nuclearholocaust not more important than the trivial "business as usual" of the Western Front? The YoungSocialist Alliance regards the attitude of the Front editors as an insult to the intelligence of the Westerncommunity, and as an assault on the democratic right to hear all points of view - adequately. Thisbureaucratic control over our right to hear must be ended. We call for the Front to serve the real interests of Western. Let's have a democratically elected council of students and faculty - with full control overthe editorial policies of the Front! This is the way to insure that all our interests are genuinelyrepresented. Karl Foreman Young Socialist Alliance (Ed. Note: The Western Front has an obligation tothe college community to keep its editorial pages as open as possible. The Front tries to insure that awell-diversified spectrum of opinion on a wide variety of topics is possible. We believe that a monopoly onthe editorial pages by one person or group on one topic is not in the best interests of the general collegecommunity. In our opinion, printing a rebuttal to a rebuttal as a commentary, such as Mr. Foreman asked us to do, defeats our objectives.) ---------- Western Front - 1973 November 2 - Page 4 ---------- Western Front .Friday, November 2,1973 Karate, Eastern philosophy blend to create art form by BILLDEWITT It's Thursday night in the TV lounge, and everyone is watching "Kung Fu" â€” Black Bart stepsoff his horse and turns towards Caine who stands there squinting into the sun. "Awright you little yellowson-of-a-gun," Black Bart says, "I'm gonna git you." But Caine just listens calmly, he never gets excited. Instead, while he stands there, he flashes back to his early monastery days . . . The scene melts to aroom ornamented in a bright Chinese style. Two monks, the teenage Caine and his older (and wiser)"master" or teacher. Young Caine turns to his master with a gaze like that of staring into the sun. Heasks: "Master, if I am to be a man of peace, what is the purpose of these skills you teach me?" "Ah,Grasshopper," the master replies, "know that a man of peace cannot effect Good always without theproper tools. And know that evil treads the world, so discern. Use your skills only when more Good willcome from it . . ." . . . and now Black Bart rushes at Caine with a 12 inch bowie knife. Caine, timing hisattack, leaps gracefully in the air in slow motion, slams Black Bart's face with a flying side-kick. Bartcollapses unconscious on the spot . . . And with a new wave of consciousness, programs like ABC's"Kung Fu" have dressed the psuedo-violenf sport of karate with a new image; that of an art form. Now, on Western's campus, the newly formed Meditative Martial Arts Society, a club promoting Karate blendedwith Eastern philosophy, has been offering classes. "Without a general philosophy, you prostitutionalizeit (karate)," said Jim Hatch a Western student, and co-teacher of the karate club. "It is lowered to asport, and ceases to be an art." "Karate is such a wide thing â€” you self-experience it, you flow with it,"commented Louis Blazovich, the club's other teacher. "Just like a painter doesn't stop by learning how to draw, he develops his own style, and,becomes one with his painting." The meditative Martial ArtsSociety plans to make breathing exercises and meditation a definite part of the curriculum. Alsoincluded, of course, will be principles of karate. "We will be getting away from ego" says \..a way toattain a oneness of the mind, soul and body/ Blazovich, "We want it to be a learning *j experience."Blazovich's ideal of karate is making it a way to attain a oneness of the mind, soul, and body. "You buildstrength through your body with physical exercises, and you also gain control of the mind. You bring your total being into place. Also it breaks down ego â€” you become more tolerant." He equated it closest toTaoism, an Eastern philosophy. The idea of breaking down ego was stressed again and again byBlazovich and Hatch. They termed the traditional Karate showmanship of breaking boards as "a bunch ofcrap. It's really senseless, and not necessary at all. Besides, it's bad for the fingers." Also, awareness is another attribute learned. A karate man isn't concerned about meeting five guys with bottles and knivesin a dark alley. He should be aware enough not to walk down a dark alley, or aware enough not to goaround shouting off his mouth at parties, and thus getting in fights. "On the street," said Blazovich, "you'll have the power to kill someone, whether you'll realize it or not. You won't want to use it unless you areA FORM OF MEDITATION-Known as "rhythmic sparring," this type Front reporter Bill DeWitt doesGeorge Plimpton on-the-spot coverage of in a dangerous situation.

Harriers to host Evco Western's football team plays its final home game tomorrow nightagainst Southern Oregon, 7:30 at Civic Stadium. The Red Raiders are coming off a 10-7 win overWhitworth last weekend while the Vikings lost to Eastern Oregon 14-7. Marty Zottola will direct the RedRaider attack. Zottola has thrown for 615 yards this season, completing 56 of 124 passes. Last year hewas ranked 11 nationally among NAIA passers but has been interception prone this season with 12aerials picked off so far. The Southern Oregon offensive line is anchored by All-Evco guard Gary Gurleywho will try to provide the openings for tailback Ken Johnson. Johnson is the third leading rusher in theconference with 431 yards. The Red Raiders lead' the league in pass defense. The SOC stop corps isgiving up only 94.2 yards a game. Defensive end Dennis Weber and cornerback Gary Jantzer are the big defensive play makers. For the Vikings, a new quarterback may be seen t o m o r r o w night. TomLeuhmann, who has started the last four games, may be replaced with either Bill Mendelson or JayOverway, according to head coach Boyde Long. The Viking defense, especially Eugene Piazza, ChrisJohnson and Pat Sebcenbaugh, was praised by Long in the loss to Eastern Oregon. Western held theMounties to 209 yards, far below their 330 yard average. by BRUCE BLIZZARD The Western cross-country team will defend its Evergreen Conference (Evco) title tomorrow at Bellingham's Lake PaddenPark at 11 a.m. The meet promises to be one of the closest and most competitive in recent years. Anyone of five teams have the potential to win. Western brings the most experienced team to the meet andhas the advantage of running at FRED NEW home. The Vikings have been bothered by injuries all yearbut'now have the entire team healthy. Eastern Washington is always one of the leading contenders forthe team trophy and this year is no different. The Eagles bring the top two individuals to the meet and ifthey get help from the rest of their squad will be in a good position to win. Eastern has Bob Maplestone,two time national mile champion, and Rick Hebron, who won the three and six mile titles in last Evcotrack meet. The Eagles are counting on Dean Hatt and Bob Barbaro to bolster their bid for thechampionship. Another team with outstanding individual talent but questionable depth is SouthernOregon. Southern is led by last year's individual champ, John Barry, and Larry Miller. Southern, likeEWSC, will have to have help from the ranks to have a shot at the title. Oregon College of Education hasthe depth needed to win but will need to finish closer together than they have so far this year. OCE, ledby Dave Castle, beat an injury plagued Western team earlier this season. Central Washington is relyingon a young and inexperienced team but they have a history of giving Western a bad time in championship events. The Wildcats finished second in last year's Evco run. Western is led by Fred New running in his last home meet for Western. New will graduate at the end of this quarter. New, from Ridgefield, hasbeen Western's top runner in every meet this year except the first when he suffered from the flue. CoachRalph Vernacchia is counting on a high finish from New to give the Vikings the push they need to hkeepthe championship trophy in Bellingham. New has been followed closely all year by Steve Menard. Thesurprising freshman from Oak Harbor should give Western an unexpected boost. Tom Duncan fromBlanchet High School has been one of the top three Vikings all year and was the teams top man in lastyear's Evco race Duncan has the reputation of being the most consistent runner on the team. He seldomruns a poor race and likes to surprise people when it counts. Andy Herstrom is running in his firstconference meet for Western. The dedicated junior from Lakes High in Tacoma has been bothered byinjuries throughout his career at Western. Vernacchia has been impressed by his dedication and believes his debut in Evco championship action will be a good one. Russ Fuller is the team's emotional leader.The energetic junior from Oak Harbor has a rare enthusiasm that is contagious. He has the ability to lifta team by his very presence. Vernacchia is also counting on fieshmen Don Adamson and Greg Wirtz.Both have run well this year and should help to raise the scores of the opposition. (In cross-country lowscore wins.) Wirtz, from Meadowdale, and Adamson, from Curtis, could be among the top five Westernharriers. Wirtz was the number three man last week. Vernacchia believes that the Western strong suit is depth. "If we can keep all seven runners as close together as we have all year then we'll be hard to beat.If we start to spread out then we're in trouble." Western needs a strong showing from every member ofthe team if they are to duplicate last year's title. The great individual talent of Eastern and SOC and thedepth of Central and OCE will make the Viks' task difficult.

JOHNSON Ten returning lettermen and a host of top transfers and freshmen recruits are givingsecond year head wrestling coach Rick Iverson something to smile about. The Vikings, 1-9 last season,are going to be "gunning for all the marbles" according to Iverson. "I know we'll have a good season,"Iverson said. "We're in one of the toughest conferences in the country, but I feel that we have at least five potential national placewinners this year." The Vikings appear to be strong in the lower weights, withstarters Admiral Flunder, Mark RICK IVERSON Sencenbaugh, Dwight Mack and Tom Tripple allreturning. Flunder and Tripple were both place winners at the Evergreen Conference meet last year.Flunder placed third while Tripple placed fourth. At 118, Iverson recruited Dale Mingo, one of the topstate high school prospects. Tom Sagmiller from Ilwaco and La Verne Peterson from Renton will also bevying with Mingo for the starting position. At 126, Flunder appears to have the inside track on a startingposition. Flunder, however, will be pressed by teammate Mack who is considering wrestling at 126instead of 134. Dan Morgan and Don Marston are also strong candidates for the starting berth. At 134and 142, the Vikings appear to be strongest. Sencenbaugh, last year's varsity starter, returns with Bernie Rusch and John Adams, two ineligibles who turned out with the team all last season. Rusch is atransfer from Green River Community College, noted as a strong wrestling junior college. Adams placedsecond in the Canadian Nationals last year. Greg Bisbey is another outstanding recruit Iverson obtained. Bisbey, from Sedro Woolley, placed second in the regional tournament last year. Tripple is expected tobe the likely starting candidate for Western at 150 this year, but will be hard pressed by Dan Bailey, atransfer from Washington State, returning lettermen Dave Holte, Doug Smith from Minnesota, Phil Greyfrom Green River, Paul Williams, Rob Tripple, Tom's brother, and Scott Wood from Sehome. Grey isconsidered by Iverson to be another top recruit. Grey placed third last year in the state junior collegewrestling meet. The Vikings are also strong at 158. Archie Benton, Charlie Walker, Lew Vinage andSteve Bastrom are all vying for the starting job. Walker, from Clover Park, was a member of his highschool's state championship wrestling team last year. Vinage won a regional championship and Bastromwas a place-winner for Green River last year in the state meet. Benton was ineligible last year, butworked out with the team. At 167, a real battle for the starting role will take place between lettermen John Mosich and Bruce Aigner. Aigner, from Inglemoor, was a two-time class "AA" runner-up in statecompetition. Aigner also went undefeated on the cultural exchange team that toured Japan. RandyGroven from Sumner will also try to crack the lineup. Chris Wielkiwica, Mark Reiman and EugenePiazza will wage a close battle for 177. Wielkiwicz, from Sunny side, placed second in state competitionone year ago. Reiman sat out most of last season, dislocating his knee in the Viking's first match.Piazza, playing football for the Vikings this year, made the "AAA" semi-finals in Oregon. "He's verytough," Iverson said. "Oregon schools are about five years ahead of Washington wrestling programs." At190, Brett Bennett and Jeff Michaelson will wrestle off to see who starts. Bennett was last year's crashdieter who peeled off 30 pounds in one month. Michaelson was Evergreen Conference runner-up twoyears ago in heavyweight competition. Bill "B.J." Jones is the only contender for the heavyweightposition, but Iverson said that Michaelson may challenge Jones for the spot. The Vikings will open theirschedule next Saturday, Nov. 10, at the Highline Community College Invitational Tournament. Thetournament is open to major college wrestlers, junior college and AAU wrestlers. Pele club opensmaiden season A mixture of ex-Western jayvees, freshmen who were recently cut from the Viking teamand a few "recruits" compose the Pele Club Basketball team which will open its maiden season tonightin Canada. The 12-man squad opens against a team from Victoria in the Big Brother InvitationalTournament in Burnaby, B.C. tonight. They will be the only American team entered in the tourney and all of the games will be played under Olympic or international rules. Formally called "redshirts," CoachPete Burns specifically, points out that his team is certified by the Associated Students as a studentclub and is not affiliated with Western basketball or athletics. Burns, a Fairhaven senior, started theteam in the hope of giving more Western students a chance to participate in organized basketball. Hesaid he has put money out of his own pocket into uniforms for the team and given his squad the namePele, which is the Hawaiian fire god. Burns is originally from Honolulu. As for coaching skills, Burnsattended Washington State University last year and learned coaching techniques from the Cougars'reknowned mentor, George Raveling. eiiceflfy filly Pad Waterbeds Indoor Sun Shoppe 676-1071 676-1070 Bay Street Village, 301 W. oUy, Belllngham Rlcfe Chandler AS LOW AS v P " f l J !

I would like now to say some simple things, Simple as a field of rice or sweet potatoes, . Or a silentearly morning. Please let me breathe again The air of yesterday . . . Please give me back these thingsI've mentioned â€” A story so simple As a bird's unbroken song, As a mother, As a baby As the life oflong ago the poets used to t e l l . . . Hoang Minh Nhan The young Vietnamese student who wrote thispoem is now a political prisoner in one of President Thieu's infamous jails. His crime â€” refusing to killfellow Vietnamese; his sentence â€” two years in prison, renewable without trial. His story was told byJacqui Chagnon of the Indochina Mobile Education Project, on campus this last week to informAmericans of Thieu's cruel and dictatorial regime and to convey the culture and human qualities of theVietnamese people. Chagnon said Hoang was typical of a group of South Vietnamese whom Americanshave at best a fuzzy picture of â€” the intellectual who simply does not want to kill his countrymen.Hoang, who Chagnon knew personally while she was in Vietnam, was caught between conflictingideological loyalties and two governments, the communist National Liberation Front and Thieu'sAmerican-supported regime. He sympathized with the NLF's anti-Americanism but refused to kill forthem. He went underground to avoid Thieu's draft when he turned 18. He lived off fellow students andwrote poetry protesting war. But he was caught by the Saigon police and thrown into jail. Two hundredthousand â€¢ South Vietnamese who oppose Thieu's government are in prison today, Chagnon said.Those who fight on either side fight not for communism or democracy, as is commonly thought inAmerica, but against the side .that has injured them, Chagnon said. If a young man's village is bombedby American B-52's, he joins the Viet Cong. If the Viet Cong execute his brother, he joins the SouthVietnamese army. Chagnon worked in Vietnam from 1968 to 1970, first as an administrative officer withCatholic Relief Services and later for International Voluntary Services (similar to the Peace Corps). Sheoutlined two general areas of the Indochinese conflict, American intervention and Thieu's repressiveregime. As to America's role in the war she said that generally, Americans don't see the Vietnamese aspeople, but as body counts and statistics. American soldiers see them as gooks. "If (in the beginning)Americans had seen the Vietnamese as people, we would never have entered the war," she said. Whilein Saigon she saw the people's terrible living conditions. Families of eight were living in shacks ten by five feet, while many children spent the night in unused sewer pipes. Saigon has the densest population ofany city in the world, she said. This was caused by Thieu's policy of forcing the rural peasant into thecities where he can be controlled. Massive American bombing of rural, communist controlled areas alsoforced many peasants to the city. When there were many American soldiers in Saigon, the explodingSaigon population could find work. The young women became prostitutes and the old women washedclothes. All the men were drafted into the South Vietnam army. Now that the soldiers have left, theeconomy is collapsing. There isn't even JACQUI CHAGNON any more gasoline for Saigon's Hondas, the symbol of the false economy, she said. What makes it worse, she added, is that in 1960 SouthVietnam had a promising economy for a developing nation. But by 1965 South Vietnam was a welfarestate, totally dependent on American money. American money also supports President Thieu'srepressive political policies, Chagnon said. Funds allocated by Congress support the Gestapo-likeSaigon Police Force, Chagnon said. American construction firms have built all the interrogation centers ( a euphemism for fotture chambers) in South Vietnam. American construction firms make millions inVietnam. One of them, Morrison-Knudson, is based in Seattle. Another, Browne-Roste, is largely ownedby Lady Bird Johnson, President Johnson's widow, Chagnon said. Of the total money supporting Thieu's government, less than one per cent of it is spent on humanitarian programs, she added. "Peace won'tcome in Vietnam," she said, "until the United States stops footing the bill for Thieu's regime." Illustratingthe repressive nature of Thieu's government, she said that expressing neutrality on the war is considered treasonous by Thieu's government. To be n e u t r a l is to be pro-communist. Thousands have beenthrown in jail for neutralism. Many city dwellers are trying to return to their villages as the Americanmoney dries up, she said. But the Saigon government refuses to let them go. The following is an edictgiven by Thieu on January 22, 1973, (just prior to the Paris peace agreement.) taken from "Hostages ofWar," a study of Saigon's political prisoners. "Arrest and detain those persons who incite the people tocreate disorder and confusion, or who leave those areas controlled by the government in order to go intothe communist controlled zones or vice versa. If they resist they will be shot." The Saigon governmentboasts about it's free elections and the large vote it receives from the people but Chagnon said theelections are a sham. Nobody opposed Thieu because they believed the election was rigged and 96.8per cent of the people voted for Thieu because if they didn't, their rice ration card wouldn't be stamped,she concluded.

Wavy Gravy, strolling through the crowd in his colorful jester's outfit, "ich-tar" (onestring) in hand, radiated FUN. As "tongue dancer" for the Hog Farm, he gave his pitch for Earth Peoples Park, 600 acres of land in Norton, Vermont - a family plot to buy back the earth and deed it back toherself. Wavy Gravy directed the audience in an energy game that involved breathing in unison followedby the release of a high-energy love shout directed at Spare Change. Spare Change responded with their life-charged sounds. In summary, the night was c r a z y , free-spirited and exuberant. The costume forthe night was a smile. Photographer Jim Thomson and I rapped with Wavy Gravy Tuesday afternoon.We found! him at the co-op nursery, playing his trusty ich-tar (a two stringer) and singing "Basic Human Needs," a song he wrote that sums up the Hog Farm philosophy: "Wouldn't it be swell/if people didn'tsell/their mother (earth)." He talked about the beginnings of the Hog Farm. "People didn't know whythey were there . . . they were looking for another way of living than two-by-two." He explained thegroup's function as centering around the question, "If it's where it's at, where's that?" The family'sactivities are currently directed towards buying back the planet. Earth If it's where it's at, where's that?' Peoples Park in Vermont is the initial stage of the project. "If a child is born on earth, why pay rent," hesaid. "It's a m a t t e r of p l a n e t a ry survival... a massive change in consciousness has to occur." He is optimistic that the change will come.

We asked if he thought the energy of the "younger g e n e r a t i o n " has changed, whether he thought the golden days of the counterculture were dead. He replied,"these are the good old days - things are just getting interesting right now." He dismissed the notion ofapathy among our generation, feeling that "folks are in a holding pattern, waiting to light up." Hisoptimism wasn't forced. The twinkle in the eye, the upturned corners of the mouth, the bright greencoveralls and the rainbow hat bespoke of mirth and hope. I asked for some final words of cosmicwisdom. "Kissing builds up the lips," he said. r Halloween insanii by JOHN HYMAS Halloween inBellingham is a period of insanity. It's a time to really get loose in a celebration which has become atraditional party because we've grown out of trick-or-treating. â€¢ The premiere event is the costumeparty where one may abandon the everyday role to become anybody or anything. What makes asuccessful bash is how well the crowd is able to change its personality to its adopted one. Hopefully anew i d e n t i t y will divert each character temporarily from the boundaries of accepted reality. Aswinging nun, a mushroom and a dinner table shared first place honors in the costume contest atTuesday night's Halloween Eve Ball held in the VU. The ball, sponsored by the Gay People's Alliance,featured "Rain," an easy-to-dance-to rock group, costumes and assorted crazies. "It wasn't too crowded but everyone there was really into it!" expressed a starry sorceress. There definitely was room to movebut dancers would still move into each other at times as if there was a lack of elbow space. The banddidn't have to be great for the freaks to release their inhibitions and writhe to the beat. The place wasn'tpacked but I know I won't miss another GPA boogy â€” those people know how to party! Halloweennight I agam forgot who I was and became a figment of imagination from a past nightmare. Following aperiod of physical and mental preparation I ventured to what I estimated would be the biggest party of the evening (having several to choose from).

As I walked in to the joint I flashed on the rollerskating rink dances of my high school years.This relic of the days of Western proms is huge. And I know why they call it a ballroom - the lights weredull white speres in rows above like so many full moons. The shiny hardwood floor looked like ice in thedark and you could slide all night to the music of "Lance Romance." The cowboys played a blend ofrock, country-western and trucker's favorites. With these guys you could dance like a fool to the point ofcollapse before retreating to one of two bars on the side, then back for more. The scene could have been a come-as-you-are party with characters from history, outer space and The Hobbit. The "zoo" was aconstant movement of colors, feathers and limbs.

Jane Fonda used to ride bareback through the soap opera dreams that bubbledover American movie screens in the early sixties. And all you could . see was the back of her heels.Her continuing adventures, as a Lady Godiva with all the right clothes, made her the darling of highsociety. After all, she was Henry's Ail-American Vassar daughter, who was every frat rat's once-in-a-lifetime and every bobby-soxer's big sis. Remember the spoiled little rich girl parts she played in "Tall St o r y " and "Period of Adjustment"â€”not much action but plenty of suggestion? Well, that all happened before she ran into Roger Vadimâ€”who would eventually turn those suggestions into, live and in color,wet dreamsâ€”beyond and beyond, the all-time fantasies of everyman. Or so Vadim thought. As it turnsout, director Vadim splashes an orgy of kaleidoscopic colors that merge with his super-sexy astro-lady(Jane Fonda) in "Barbarella" (1969). And he doesn't leave much to the imagination. According to Vadim,who spread his ex-wife Brigitte Bardot all over the screen at one time, too, Barbarella is supposed to be"a kind of sexual Alice in Wonderland, of the future." Actually, this intergalactic spoof on post-sexualintercourse isn't much more than a porno-comic strip, complete with psychedelic side-effects-that tripover themselves, no less. Set in A.D. 40,000, Vadim places his heroine into a Utopian society whereman's wildest dreams become real. All the aggressive instincts of man have melted away, thanks toEros. And Barbarella's mission is to find the far-away villain, who has invented the "ultimate weapon."New Yorker film critic, Pauline Kael, sees Fonda's portrayal of Barbarella as an example of "theAmerican girl triumphing by her innocence, a lewd comic-strip world of the future. When she takes offher clothes, she is playfully and deliciously aware of the naughtiness, of what she's doing, and thatinnocent's sense of naughtiness, of being a tarnished lady, keeps her from being just another nakedactress."

The performance began witha short Sonatina in three movements by Mozart. The piece was played flawlessly without the aid ofsheet music. In this piece the cello and piano often played the same notes at the same time but it never hampered the execution. The second composition was the "Sonata, Op. 6" by Samuel Barber. For thispiece he donned his glasses and started without a word. The first movement was highly tragic in mood,varying from sections where Frank literally threw the bow onto the strings and signed from side to sidewith the cello to mellow restful sections that seemed to give Frank a moment to get ready for the nextcrescendo. It seemed long and repetitious. The second part of the piece was my favorite, featuring acombination of lyrical melodies with short, jerky strokes of the bow that lent an air of playfulness to themusic. The last movement was a great culmination of all the themes from the other sections, t h e r e by requiring much versatility from the two players. Both were able to bring the piece off well, with Frankplaying the final grandiose stroke with much feeling. F r a n k began the "Intermezzo" by Debussy with a short comment. "When Debussy finally published this it did not sell and has hardly ever been playedsince." The composition itself evoked a sad mood throughout, repeating one theme several times. Thepiano scoring was typical of Debussy, very lyrical and velvety, but the cello part was unusually tragic intone for the composer known for such nocturnal favorites as "Claire de Line." I t was also highlyprogrammatic instead of free a n d u n s t r u c t u r e d as impressionistic composers usually delightedin writing. Prefacing the next piece, Frank said, "To bring a single note in relation to the next is veryimportant to such bellingham travel Zurline Piovesan Charters to Europe Complete Travel ServiceLeopold Inn Bldg. 733-1270 TGIF todpy] This afternoon from 4:30 to 6 p.m. only: Free shirt decals.

"Repetition was one thing Webern felt needed to be avoided and so hesought to change tonality to (what he thought) was the true nature of sound." "Three Short Pieces"exemplified Webern's beliefs quite well. Because the piece was discordant purposely and required only a few short offbeat strokes from the cello the timing between piano and cello seemed more importantthan the music itself. It created a strange, lonely atmosphere. The final performance on the program was "Variations on a Rococo Theme" by Peter Tchaikovshy and it was easily apparent why this was savedfor the finale. Again he played the piece by memory. It' featured minute cello strokes in places tocontrast with one of Tchaikovsky's most famous traits: a very romantic flair which often became tragic. It was an extremely changeable composition that, like the Barber sonata, required much versatility oncello and piano. In a few places Frank's left hand moved up and down the neck of the cello so rapidlythat it almost met the fast strokes of the bow; whereas in many places it was so soft and quiet that one could distinguish between the musical notes played by Frank and the sound of the bow rubbing thestrings. The last variation made me smile. It brought a return of the playful, flippant mood that was, ifyou can believe it of classical music, actually foot-stpmping. The audience was so delighted that theycalled Frank and Bussard back for a short encore, a vocalize by Maurice Ravel, to end the concert. Film directors seen on public television Eight American movie directors are the subject of an eight-partdocumentary series that premieres Sunday on Public Broadcasting System (PBS). "The Men WhoMade the Movies" traces the careers of Raoul Walsh, Frank Capra, Howard Hawks, King Vidor, GeorgeCukor, William A. Wellman, Alfred Hitchcock and Vincente Minnelli. The programs are composed ofprofessional reminiscences and the best scenes from most of their best pictures. The forst episode is"The Films of Raoul Walsh" and will include clips of Walsh as John Wilkes Booth in "The Birth of aNation," Humphrey Bogart in "High Sierra," and Errol Flynn in "They Died With Their Boots On." It willbe shown at 7:30 on channel 9 and will be repeated at 9 p.m. Thursday. Top names in jazz salute Louis Armstrong in "A Tribute to Louis Armstrong," a concert taped last July in New York City. Highlightsinclude clips of Armstrong doing "Mack the Knife" and "When It's Sleepy Time Down South," and suchentertainers as Ella Fitzgerald and Dizzy Gillespie. It is scheduled for 8 p.m. Monday on channel 9.Elizzbeth Taylor gives her best performance since "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" in "X, Y and Zee."Taylor really plays herself in this story of shrewish wife whose already strained relationship with herhusband (Michael Caine) becomes even more so with the appearance of a young widow (SusannahYork). It was rated R in its theater run so it will undoubtedly be cut when shown. It is set for Satruday at 9 p.m. on channel 8, and 11:20 p.m. on channel 6. The week's other top film is "The Graduate." One ofthe most successful films ever made, "The Graduate" is the story of a young man who has an affair with an older married woman and then falls in 1 /e with her daughter. The cast includes Anne Bancroft,Dustin Hoffman and Katharine Ross. The music is by Simon and Garfunkel, and the Oscar-winningdirection is by . Mike Nichols. The film will be aired Thursday at 9 p.m. on channel 7. Dance try-outs set S h u f f l e - b a l l - c h a n g e , hop-one-two-three-four, kick, turn and one more time.

Relaxing the laws to permit people, 21 years or more, to drink at LakeWOOd,Western's Lake Whatcom resort, is Doan's immediate interest. Ultimately alcohol could be al. lowed inthe dormitories and even served on campus as at the University of British Columbia. The BOC willmeet today at 4 p.m. to discover a consensus opinion of what measures the board wishes to discusswith President Charles J. Flora. aPPear on campus July 9, 10 and 11. He received his M.A. from "Thepremise of the school's policy regarding alcoholic beverages is based on non-existing state laws."Legislator Al Doan, speaking at Thursday's Board of Control (BOC) meeting was referring to the collegepolicy on the use of intoxicants. The Navigator contains a statement that the school is complying withstate laws. These laws do not allow consumption or possession of intoxicants on campus, incollege residence halls or college approved housing, at college functions, or on college property.Doan says the college policy is contradicting itself because such state laws no longer exist.

Graduate students in psychology, working with the students and parents, try topinpoint the student's learning problems. By giving attention to and rewarding only desired behavior,less adaptive patterns can often be eliminated, Dr. Tyler, associate professor of psychology, said.Similar projects have beenÂ· tried in other areas, including nursery schools and hospitals, with muchsuccess, Dr. Tyler noted. Any parents who have children in junior high school with school or homebehavioral problems and who wish to have their children take part in the project should contact thepsychology department office. Three high school youths were apprehended by campus security officersafter breaking into the Viking Union on Sunday night of last week. Stolen articles which wererecovered included three jackets, keys, locks and food from the coffee shop. The youths were caughtwhen they were seen trying to enter a car parked in the lot north of Higginson Hall by Tim Houghtaling, of the security patrol. The breakin was discovered when a security officer found a window open to a VUoffice at about 10:30 p.m. He found the office door inside unlocked and locked it, but later found itunlocked again. The youths had 50 to 60 keys in their possession when they were apprehended, whichthey had used to enter various parts of the VU building. The boys told campus marshal Bob Frick theyoriginally gained entry through a basement window which had been left open.

Aggression is aparticularly explosive problem, since sligoht adjustments in the "thera mostat" of parental attitudeproduce significant changes- in the child's behavior, Dr. Knowles said. He warned that children "readilyimitate models of aggression," which they too often find in their own parents. While punishmentdoesn't have a lasting effect in teaching the child good from bad, a loveoriented approach often results in gui It feelings. Nonetheless, love-orientation "is one of our only hopes" in the problem ofteachingchildren right from wrong. The answer, he said, is to develop the child's moral character as a strength ofwill and an ability to delay gratification of desires.

Just because it is a time of year for relaxation we must not forget the pressing issuesof our time. We have seen on a nationwide and even worldwide level recently that this is a year of student activism, a year in which student commitment has produced stunning results. Let us here and nowcarryon that commitment by resolving to further exercise student power on national, state, and even local levels. The Bellingham Student Action Committee challenges you to ioin in the search for means ofinvolvement. O.K., it is summertime and we are in the northwest corner of Washington but we have a duty to carryon the activism on 1968. The Committee plans its first session on Sunday afternoon, July 7th.During the summer there will be more meetings, plus parties and sessions with public figures andcandidates for office.

Come on, Dr. Hicks, our society isno different from any BURNABY - Burnaby's version of the Berlin Wall came down June 12. A group ofabout two dozen students and faculty members who felt undergraduates should not be excluded from thefaculty lounge took matters into their own hands, and tore out a partition erected to block free access tothe lounge and funnel people to a checkpoint where a doorman was posted to check tD.s. Other facultymembers called the action irresponsible, pointing out that the faculty probably would have voted to allowthe students access to the lounge if they had asked. UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON - ASUWPresident Thom Gunn faces disciplinary action as a result of his presidential inaugural activities thisspring, which he called "World War III." Gunn was charged with failing to pay parking fees during theevent and instigating damage to the campus. He was also charged with a microphone violation. He wasplaced on deferred probation for one year, which means he could lose office if disciplined for violating anyUniversity regulation, He also was fined $53.20 and a formal reprimand was entered on his official record. Gunn termed the action "heavy-handed intimidation." He said students, not he, caused the damage. Heanswered the microphone charge by saying he planned to hold the activity in a theater, but when it wasfound an electrical cord had been cut, crowds returned to the Husky Union and got out of control before he arrived there. Gunn said he will challenge the disciplinary action. Replies to Hicks Editor: Certainly noreasonable man can object to the arguments presented by Prof. Hicks in his call last week for strictergun-controllaws. But he, like those who rant and tear their hair over the subject of guns, see only asfar as the end of their collective nose. ls there not a touch of the absurd when President Johnson goessanctimoniously on TV decrying the use of violence and guns, and then the same daypins medals onmen who are celebrated for killing with guns, and sends several thousand more over to Vietnam to domore of the same? You can't draw a line and say to impressionable children: "It's bad to kill someonewith a gun, but it's glorious to kill someone with a gun when the President and or Congress tells Give astudent a lift Not all campus hitchhikers are as pretty as the one our photographer passed the other day.But all share a common problem: How do you get downtown if you don't have a car? The outthrust thumb is a time-honored method which sooner or later gets results. Most student drivers, at least, will stop toaid a fellow student. (The editor never fails to assist pretty girls in distress.) Thumbing has itsdisadvantages, however. For one thing a lot of pretty girls consider it beneath their dignity, and while they really would like a ride, they'd sooner walk than thumb. Then, too, thumbing is hard work, holding upyour arm like that. Technically, it is illegal, and you could get pinched. And what do you do if it rains?The answer, of course, is to eliminate the necessity of using the thumb to get a ride. With a littleimagination and even less work, the operation could be made more efficient and comfortable, as well. All that is needed is a bench set along the curb across from the VU, bearing a large sign: "Please Give MeA Ride Downtown." Drivers would know immediately who and how many want a ride. Ride-seekers could sit in comfort, lazy-like; and nobody can arrest you for sitting on a bench. And certainly no pretty girlwould consider quietly contemplating passing cars as beneath her dignity. A roof would keep outweather. At the other end, it probably could be arranged with the city to place a similar sanctuary at aconvenient spot downtown - maybe even some customer - conscious businessman would provide space. The Associated Students legislature could easily find a few bucks for such a worthy project. All it takesis somebody to get the ball rolling. How about it, Associated Students legislature? -Don B. Wittenberger Ah, summer school What is it that makes summer school so different from the other quarters? Haveyou noticed the variety of people who are rushing to classes? We actually have a microcosm right hereon our own campus. First, there are the experienced teachers returning to college for "refresher courses"who are really already settled in their methods. What they really want to do is convince their professorsthat experience is the best teacher. Then. there are the returning teachers working on their fifth year oftheir master's degrees just because they have to. The nuns, too, are here with their happy faces,obviously enjoying their interaction with the inhabitants of the "real" world again. Transient studentswanting to get a view of college life on another campus are here observing and comparing our classesand professors to theirs. College kids who don't want to work come to summer school to have fun, takingas few hours as possible so they can spend their afternoons at the beach. Our profs are here trying toearn some extra money during their vacation. Now is the time for our hippiecult to appear in full glory,as they can really stand out with only 3,300 people on campus. We really can't forget the project kids,who are here to see what college is REALLY like.

Former GI Spy Reveals Tactics Allen Gibbs, a Western graduate student and former agent for Military Intelligence decides to reveal some of the extent of military spying on civilians.In an interview with the Front yesterday afternoon, Gibbs charged that U.S. college students belonging to especially "unpatriotic" organizations were being kept under surveillance. He said agents have beenattracted to college campuses where civil rights and anti-war groups have been active. Story and photoon page 2.

Allen Gibbs, a graduate student at Western, was anagent for the Military Intelligence (M.I.) from 1965 to 1968 and assigned to the southwestern part ofWashington. Gibbs said he watched and filed reports on such public figures as Dick Gregory and JoanBaez. Gregory and his followers were placed under surveillance after they attended a Fish-In nearOlympia in support of Indians fishing rights. Their pictures were taken and then transferred to Washington D.C., Gibbs said. He said the M.I. wasn't concerned about the dispute between the Indians and thestate, but was there to keep an eye on the crowds and prevent violence near the state capitol. "Still,"Gibbs said, "it would appear the M.I. is doing this sort of thing throughout the nation and justification for it has gone far beyond what is legitimate." The M.I. was originally designed to investigate background ofmilitary personnel applying for clearance, Gibbs said. They also investigate civilians working ongovernment contracts and students planning to become officers in the military. - He said the LimitationsAgreement of 1948â€”which he has never seen, but was only told aboutâ€”outlined the boundaries withinwhich the M.I. could investigate. "But sometimes we would get a case that was clearly out of ourjurisdictions and it was something for the FBI," he said. Since the mid-sixties the M.I. has beenattracted to college campuses, Gibbs said. Especially where anti-war and civil rights groups were active. During the 1967 demonstrations the M.I. infiltrated various peace groups and "there wasn't a single move that the anti-war leaders made that the M.I. didn't know about," Gibbs said. As the peace groupsbecame more violent, the M.I. stepped up its surveillance and assigned more agents. "The degree ofinvolvement at the Democratic Convention in Chicago is a stunning example of M.I. involvement," Gibbssaid. "There has been nothing ever written or on the screen that could possibly equal their activity." Asmuch of the information is still classified, Gibbs declined to talk about certain activities of the M.I. Hewould not comment on surveillance of draft dodgers in Canada or would say how many agents are in thisarea. Gibbs said he isn't too worried about public reactions to his talking, but he did have his phonenubmer unlisted. "There are people who feel talking about involvement of the M.I. in civilian life is going to result in a questioning of all government agencies," he said. "Many people say 'Why shouldn't thegovernment keep an eye on these people (protestors)'," Gibbs said. One thing that disturbed him andother young agents was that if a draftee attended a rock festival and it came to light, then the drafteewould be investigated and brought in for an interview with an M.I. agent. The M.I. had a firm belief thateveryone attending a rock festival was either a drug addict or a communist, Gibbs said. Currently theMilitary Intelligence is coming under fire after a former agent revealed he spied on top public officials inIllinois. A congressional hearing is now investigating these charges. If anything comes of these hearings,Gibbs said, "The degree of involvement of the M.I. in civilian population would be horrifying."

The charges stemmed from an incident on Nov. 25 in the office ofthe College of Ethnic Studies where Ferdinand allegedly used loud, profane and intimidating languagetoward two college personnel. He was also cited for "disturbance of the college" in the charge preferredby Ronald Williams, dean of ethnic studies, and Curmie Price, assistant professor at the cluster college. The . board judged Ferdinand's behavior as "inappropriate and indiscrete," but the policy violationcharge was not sustained due to insufficient psoof that he was told to cease the alleged "demonstration"and that his actions were unduly persistent. Price and Ferdinand were involved in a discussion overbringing a Black speaker to Seattle when Ferdinand allegedly became impatient with Price's attitude and called Price a "chickenshit-house nigger." Ferdinand left the office; the judiciary was told he used thephrase several times again, directed at Dean Williams. Williams told the judiciaryuhat he told Ferdinandto cease^ but Ferdinand said he did not remember hearing the command to stop. Under collegeprocedure, demonstrators are supposed to be given two verbal warnings. When a question was put toFerdinand during the hearing over the abusiveness of his language, Williams became outraged and saidthe question was racist and charged that abusive language was abusive whether it was used by a Whiteor Black man. Ferdinand said that his outburst was "no attempted demonstrationâ€”it was an attempt tosay what I said, and leave." Williams did not argue with Ferdinand's choice of words or intent, but saidhe disagreed with the manner in which they were used, the abuse, and the disruption they caused. Dean Williams told the all-college judiciary that the "disruption of the college" portion of the charge was themost serious infraction in his estimation. At the time of the incident, interviews were being held withcollege applicants. Both Williams and Price said the interviews were badly disturbed. Ferdinand's casewas previously hear before the all-student judiciary board, but the decision of that hearing was appealedto the higher board. Members of the all-college judiciary board include John Hebal, associate professorof political science; Laurence Miller, assistant professor of psychology; and students Michael Rehmke,Tom Treloar, and Gerald Griggs, and Keith Guy, director of residence h a l l s p r o g r a m s. CountyFlood Damage Runs High RON;GRAHAM Managing Editor Heavy rains and melting snow caused suchsevere problems throughout Whatcom County over the weekend that County Commissioner ChairmanMallory hopes to persuade Gov. Evans to declare it a disaster area. The Nooksack River overflowed itsbanks over the weekend forcing the evacuation of the Lummis occupying a little fishing village on theedge of the Lummi Indian Reservation. Some decided to stay in the village and later had to be evacuated by an amphibious "duck" by a Bellingham civil defense crew. Also on Sunday a dike further upriverbroke and water inundated some 3,000 acres of farmland and flooded nearby Marietta, a small villagejust west of Bellingham. Families evacuated from the area either moved in with friends or into thebasement of the Garden Street Methodist Church. The facilities were offered to the Red Cross and nearly 100 persons have been staying there. The men who are sleeping at the church at night spend thedaytime attempting to get into Marietta and the Lummi village to begin cleanup. Some people had moved furniture out but many did not. As of yesterday, water still covered the floors in some homes. Most willnot be able to get back into their homes for several days, evacuee Rosemary Placid . said Wednesdayafternoon. In the meantime, school-age children have been getting voluntary transportation to school andthe younger children have been cared for by church groups and volunteer students. Construction crewswere beginning work on the partially washed out bridge across the slough which is the only route into the village from the Marietta side, Mrs. Placid said. Skiers Isolated Elsewhere in the county some 500skiers were cut off from their homes by roadsiides and washed out bridges. Roads washed out around11:00 a.m. Saturday ski patrol leader Don Goodman said, and the 300 isolated skiers couldn't drive outuntil Sunday noon. In the emergency 200 stayed in the Mt. Baker Ski Lodge and another 100temporarily housed at the Firs Ski Lodge. At one time it was thought that the skiers would have to leavetheir cars above the Coal Creek bridge, walk across and be picked up from there. A detour was rigged up over an old logging road and the work of bulldozers in breaking up a logjam by the Boulder Creek bridgeallowed the skiers to drive out. The water was about a foot and a half deep on the bridge and some carswould float over against the railing on the way across, Goodman said. He also said that the roadshoulders were washed out in many spots and along Powerhouse Hill the road was reduced to nearlyhalf a lane. It was touch and go when the bus from Anacortes negotiated the spot and the riders allwalked around the spot, Goodman said. Though quite a few of the skiers were from Western, the regularski classes on Saturday and Sunday were cancelled at the last minute. Homes Threatened Severalhomes along North Shore Drive were in danger of being washed into Lake Whatcom as Smith Creekturned into a torrent of muddy water and logs. Robert Scandrett, and associate professor of music atWestern, owns one of the houses which was subject to the flooding. The homes along the North ShoreRoad were threatened in varying degrees, some receiving only water damage while the home of WalterLarson was bludgeoned by logs swept along by the stream. Several stretches of roads around thecounty have been washed out and slides have restricted southbound traffic out of Bellingham to Highway 99. Interstate 5 and Chuckanut Drive have both been subject to slides and washouts. ---------- Western Front - 1971 February 5 - Page 4 ---------- 4 Western Front Friday, February 5, 1971 Front Editorials.... "To comfort the afflicted and to afflict thecomforted" Peace Treaty During the fall term, a handful of American university students travelled toNorth Vietnam to negotiate a peace treaty which has now been signed by student representatives fromboth North and South Vietnam and the United States, including Gary Evans, Bert Halprin and this editoron campus. In effect, this joint treaty of peace states that we no longer consider each other enemies.The Indo-China war is being carried out in the names of South Vietnam and the United States without our consent. We have agreed to end the war on the following terms so that both peoples can live under thejoy of independence and can devote themselves to building a society based on human equality andrespect for the earth. 1. The Americans agree to immediate and total withdrawal from Vietnam andpublicly set the date by which all American forces will be removed. 2. As soon as this date has been set, the Vietnamese pledge to enter into discussions to secure release of all American prisoners, includingpilots captured while bombing North Vietnam. 3. Immediate cease-fire between U.S. forces and thoseled by the Provisional Revolutionary Government of South Vietnam. 4. The Vietnamese will discuss theprocedures to guarantee the safety of all withdrawing troops. 5. The Americans pledge to end theimposition of the Thieu-Ky-Khiem on the Constitution The AS Legislature is going through the annualrites of forming a constitution. This shouldn't be too alarming, just about every legislature prior to thisyear's has re-written a constitution. The basic reasons for writing a new constitution haven't changedeither. Once again the legislature says it wants a constitution which will call for better representation instudent government. Once again one of the major criticism of the old constitution was that it had toomany loopholes. Sound familiar, well it should, this was a basic gripe by the former legislature, and theone before it, and the one before that one, and . . . . There are two unique things about how people ofSouth Vietnam in order to insure their right to self-determination and so that all political prisoners can bereleased. 6. The Vietnamese pledge to form a c o a l i t i on government to organize democraticelections, without the presence of foreign troops. All parties agree to respect the results Of thoseelections. 7. The South Vietnamese pledge to discuss procedures to guarantee the safety and politicalfreedom of those South Vietnamese who have collaborated with the U.S. or the U.S.-supported regime.8. The Americans and the Vietnamese agree to respect the independence, peace and neutrality of Laosand Cambodia in accord with the 1954 and 1962 Geneva conventions and not to interfere in the internalaffairs of these two countries. 9. Upon these points of agreement, we pledge to end the war and resolveall other questions in the spirit of self-determination and mutual respect for the independence andpolitical freedom of the people of Vietnam and the United States. Halprin and Evans will be attending theNational Students Association (NSA) special conference this weekend where delegates are expected toratify the document and campaign for its acceptance by the government. At a time when it looks as if we are heading back into the war, it is time for a serious effort to come to acceptable terms to end theslaughter. â€”John Stolpe this new constitution will be formed. First of all, the new constitution stemsfrom a campaign promise made by AS President Steve Cooper. That's unique, because few campaignpromises are ever fulfilled. Secondly, AS has said it plans to hire an expert in constitutional law to serveas an advisor. The advisor will also help in the actual writing. This is a step that should have been takenyears ago. Not to applaud the AS Legislature too much, there is one thing for certain. It does appear that AS is headed in the right d i r e c t i o n toward forming a better constitution. Hopefully it will reach itsgoal. Bob Taylor Viewpoint It's Just War REV. BILL SQDT Last week I thought up a dandy title andthen wrote a column about it. Besides changing singular graffito to plural graffiti, and very it's to pronounits, the editors left out my dandy title and slipped in one of their own. So the column plunged from hazyfog to the deep well of confusion. If you're touched by all this, read it again with the real tag: BRAINS ORTRIPE FOR DINNER, DEAR? But more important, remember to have reservations about anything youread in the papers... or political propaganda . . . especially about war. Is Cambodia an "incursion" or an"invasion?" Do our troops on the ground there wear civilian or military uniforms? WHO is going into Laos? What is the difference between "ground troops" and "ground combat troops?" * * * In 1937 the RomanCatholic Chief of Chaplains in the German Army eulogized his men as glorious soldiers in a hold crusadeagainst Bolshevism and outstanding emissaries of the Third Reich. In 1966, while I was still in the U. S.Navy, the then Chief of Chaplains, a Southern Baptist, was rushing frantically around the country sayingcomparable things about our people. Christians have to answer for anomalies like that. It's been that waysince Constantine got converted in the fourth century. Christianity was suddenly respectable, and part ofthe world. Augustine and Aquinas, both great men, developed to a high degree of sophistication, over afew centuries, the idea of "just" wars. That's a hard concept in the nuclear age, but for a long time it wasmanageable. It hangs on the proposition, hardly refutable empiracally, that in our experience here onearth, nothing ever rises to the point of favorable comparison with absolute holiness or goodness. (Original Sin is the theological term.) In this relative evil, sometimes you can choose only the wrong that is lesser. In the dilemma of deciding about institutionalized violence, they said you have to consider matters likewho are the members of the institution, do they have a reasonable hope of getting something better out of it, are they using the least amount of violence possible, and do they have the best possible motives in the circumstance? Absolute pacifism, though I like the concept, is still for me a romantic phantasy. But sois absolute violence. So in the question of the war in Indo-China, I struggle with the 'just war' theory. And Istumble upon the realization that if a war is 'just' for one side, it's probably 'unjust' for the other. Now thebig question: "Is it 'just' for the United States, or is it possibly 'just' for the other side?" No emotion,please, or chauvinism, or prejudice. This is a serious academic inquiry. $ $ :Â£ $ Jf: Channel Ninerecently had a technician loaded forum on the SST.

EDITORIAL PHONE 676-3161ADVERTISING PHONE 676-3160 Fairhaven Students Protest Against Telephone Tax A group ofFairhaven College students is starting a protest movement on the Western and Fairhaven Collegecampuses against the 10 per cent federal excise tax on telephone service. The group said that in April of1966 President Johnson put a bill through Congress to raise the federal excise tax on telephone servicefrom 3 to 10 per cent. The statement also said that Johnson, legislative leaders, and the New York Timesmade it clear that the increase was necessitated by the growing costs of the Vietnam war. Individualstudents at Fairhaven College have deleted payment of the tax and say they intend to continue doing so.According to the group's statement, no one has been prosecuted for non-payment of the tax, althoughthe Internal Revenue Service has harassed persons to pay it and, in some cases, has confiscated moneyfrom individuals' bank accounts to pay the tax. ---------- Western Front - 1971 February 5 - Page 5 ---------- Friday, February 5, 1971 Western Front 5 Campus Briefs Admission Limits The joint council on highereducation has proposed that Western's admission for next fall not exceed the 9,470 students actually-registered last fall, admissions counselor Dick Riehl said Monday. If the legislature accepts therecommendation, Western will be budgeted on the basis of that number of students and will not be ableto increase its enrollment, Riehl said. The board of trustees last fall adopted a list of priorities that wouldassure that Western remained a four-year institution but placed non-resident applicants at the bottom ofthe list. Riehl predicted that the legislature would increase tuition for the coming year and that the higherfeesâ€”possibly as much as $400 per quarter for non-residentsâ€”would reduce the number of out-of-state applicants. Japanese Tutorials Students interested in taking a course in conversational Japanese on anon-graded, non-credit basis should contact Ellis Krauss in the Political Science Department as soon aspossible. Krauss said Monday that more than 20 students had already signed up for the class to beoffered next spring. The political science lecturer studied the language for four years at Stanford, thenspent two years in Japan. He spent one year at the special language center in Tokyo and one yearstudying for his doctoral dissertation in political science. Krauss is a member of the East Asian Studiesminor faculty. Financial Aid Students who want to be assured of first-hand consideration for financial aidnext year should have their application file complete by Feb. 15. That's the deadline for applications andparent's confidential statement to be submitted to the financial aids office, OM 103. The parent'sconfidential statements are then sent to Berkeley, California and processed by the College ScholarshipService (CSS). CSS then determines how much money a student should be able to earn himself, receivefrom his parents'and, in turn, will need from, financial aids in order to go to school. In 1970-71, Westernstudents received over a million dollars from various financial aid programs. Since it now costs theaverage student $ 1800 for an academic year, many students need financial aid. It will cost even morenext year. NSF Fellowships National Science Foundation Fellowships for 1971 have been awarded totwo Western faculty members. Carter Broad, professor of biology, and Robert Meade, professor ofpsychology received two of only six such awards given in the state. The teachers will be using their grants to increase their knowledge in their subject areas and in order to improve their effectiveness as teachers. Applicants were selected on the basis of their demonstrated interest and competence as teachers.Broad will spend the first half of next year doing field work in Alaska studying intertidal marine communitystructure in the Pacific Northwest. He will follow this up with studies at the University of Washington'sFriday Harbor laboratories. Meade will use his grant to further his study of psychological phenomena asconditioned by culture. He will be affiliated with the division of behavioral science at Meerut University inIndia for this purpose. The Wing' Called "One of the most electric and vital companies" by critics, "TheWing" will be presented by Western's Arts and Lectures series Sunday, Feb. 7 in the Music Auditorium."The Wing" is made up of ten people who, without props, costumes or scripts, use themselves to createtheatrical experiences from audience suggestions. The improvisational group grew from a series ofworkshops held by the Committee, a satirical revue company from San Francisco. The group stuck outon its own in 1968 and made their formal debut in San Francisco in 1969, calling themselves "TheExperimental Wing." "The Wing" will take viewers on voyages ranging from a satirical look at sex to aday at the circus . . . or possibly neither one. The group will flow with the whim of the crowd. Westernstudents and faculty will be admitted free and general admission is $1.50. There will be only oneperformance at 8:15 p.m. Design Competition gt;v The Western design center is sponsoring a contestto design a college seal for Whatcom Community College. The selected seal will be used on stationary,official documents, catalogues, diplomas, school rings and pins, brochures and possibly a flag. Thecompetition, open to all Western students, offers an award of $50 to the designer of the winning seal. The contest will run from Feb. 8 through Feb. 27. For further information contact Marvin Southcott in thetechnology department or Joy Dabney in Old Main 250. Scholarship Applications for the Easter SealScholarship for 1971-72 will be available Monday in the Financial Aids Office, 103 Old Main. To be eligible for this award, students must be preparing careers in physical therapy, occupational therapy or specialeducation with emphasis on the physically handicapped.

They also approved a summer quarter tuition hike to$149 despite a request by the AS Legislature that the decision be postponed until an all-college meetingcould be called to discuss the matter. The approval of the four-hour extension by the Board leaves it upto the dorm governments as to whether they wish to operate under the new visitation hours. Severalrestrictions were made on the extension of visiting hours. The four-hour extension will be subject to afirst-year examination by the Board and a comprehensive study must be kept of the dorms which operate under the new hours. If such an examination yield evidence that the extension has interfered withstudent academic endeavors, the proposal will be open to question once again. If a dorm does decide toadopt the visitation extension, hours would be from 8 a.m. to 2 a.m. Sunday through Thursday and ironÂ»' a.m. to 4 a.m. Friday and Saturday. The AS Legislature requested the delay in the tuition hikedecision so that students might ask questions of college administrators concerning the proposal and that their opinions might be taken into consideration. Another reason the legislature wanted the decisionpostponed was that an investigation into the possibility of cutting costs rather than raising tuition has notbeen completed. The legislature believes the results of that investigation should be made available beforeany decision is reached. President Flora said last week that a decision must be made early to meet theprinting deadline for the summer catalog. He said he would rather find out that the proposed tuitionincrease could be cut than have to raise it at the last minute. The Board agreed to include a footnote inthe summer catalog advising that the tuition would be lowered from the $149 figure if costs could be cut,or if additional funds were made available. Flora Rejects Student Seat on Advisory Board BOBBURNETT Front Reporter College President Charles Flora has adamantly refused to create a studentseat on his six-member advisory committee, despite mounting pressure from the Associated Students.Flora argues that students should not be allowed to sit on the board because the group is strictlyadvisory and not decision-making. AS Administrative Assistant Tom Cooper has charged that Flora'sargument is not valid "because we have students on all of the other advisory groups" on campus. Coopersaid that of the 40 standing committees, the tenure and promotion committee and the college president's advisory committee are the only two that do not have direct student input. Cooper claimed that four ofthe five members other than Flora at one time were in favor of allowing students to sit on the board. When interviewed, however, each member said he had either changed his mind or was misunderstood byCooper. Flora maintains that the advisory body is an informal "sounding board" which discusses avariety of topics, but that it makes no decisions or policies. Cooper believes that the board's role is notsolely advisory: "I feel that many times decisions stem from the board which affect the entire college, and that it is therefore imperative that students be allowed to sit on that board. "The president of the collegedeserves to sit with a group of his select few, but when the group exceeds the limits of advice, when theramifications of the 'advice' affects the entire Western community and when the president begins todepend on that body more and more, then the president loses his right to select the people whose inputs he will hear," Cooper said. The members of the president's advisory committee are: Dean of GraduateStudies J. Alan Ross, Dean of Faculty Research Herbert Taylor, Provost F. Sargent, Dean of StudentsBill McDonald, Acting Business Manager Ernest Sams and President Flora. "When this meeting takesas much as 10 per cent of the president's time, I question that it is only advisory," Cooper charged. Hesaid Flora's decision not to seat students was inconsistent with a statement Flora made in a long-rangeplan for 1970 submitted to Gov. Dan Evans where he said "We are totally committed to involving students in responsible processes of decision making." The other members of the president's staff made thesecomments in backing Flora's decision: Ernest Sams: "If you put a student on that body, it will change the whole tenor or tone. If the president decides to change the group, then I feel that students should sit onit. At the present time, however, a student would not add anything. A student would detract from thegroup's purpose." Bill McDonald: "This group is a little different situation from other advisory groups. He(Flora) feels more free (with the informal structure). Cooper may have easily gotten the impression that Iwas in favor of seating a student, but I will have to go along with the president's desires." Herbert Taylor:"Generally I am in favor of student representatives on governing bodies. In the case of presidentialadvisory bodies, I am in favor of the president's selection." J. Alan Ross: "I cannot give unqualifiedapproval. I have been exploring the appropriateness of the possibility. I support student members onpolicy-making committees, but this is not a policy-making committee." Fred Sargent: "I have changedmy mind (since talking with Cooper) after deeper thought. I have to agree with the president's decision."Freeway Collapse Seen Preventable MARK MORROW Front Reporter The recent washout of thesouthbound lanes on Interstate 5, north of Lake Samish, could be the start of similar problems in theimmediate area. The highway was built on a pile of unconsolidated dirt and a false assumption or two,Professor Randall Babcock of the geology department told the Front yesterday, The recently broken-uplanes resulted from the heavy rainfall in the Bellingham area last month. However, Babcock feels thatcareful planning could have prevented the washout. The southbound lanes were laid over filled-in loosedirt with a high clay content. There was not sufficient support at the bottom of this unconsolidatedmaterial to hold it in place. In addition, provisions for drainage were poor in case of heavy rainfall.Babcock sees two major factors behind the failure to stabilize the roadbed. The cost for efficient slopestability was considered prohibitive at the time of construction. Also, it was c o n s i d e r e d highlyimprobably that the slope would ever collapse. "There have been slides on a smaller scale all along thisstretch of loose fill. It was simply a case of enough water to cause a more serious and damaging slide." The problem of sliding rock and shale cluttering the northbound lanes is an entirely different problem,Professor Don Easterbrook said. The rock which these lanes were built into consisted of uplifted shaleand^sedimentary rock, with the lines'of potential slippage dipping steeply toward the cut of the road.When the problem of rocks on the freeway got serious, the highway department tried to remedy thesituation by cutting the exposed rock back from the side of the road. H o w e v e r , this simply undercut the slope and took away support from the base of the overhanging rock. More surface area wasexposed, leaving more layers of rock free to slide down the dipping planes of rock formation. Easterbrook sees it as a large problem made larger. The problem of slope stability is relevant to this campus,according to both professors, particularly in light of the need to adequately anchor buildings in the sidesof hills. If footings are not set deeply enough into the stable rock beneath unconsolidated matter, astructure could slowly slide away. And Western is definitely on the side of a hill. ---------- Western Front - 1971 February 5 - Page 7 ---------- Friday, February 5, 1971 Western Front 7 Campus Pollution l j |p MARIE HAUGEN Copy EditorIndustries pollute. Western is an industry. Western pollutes. Pollution comes in many forms with manymethods available to solve the problem. Recycling is one way to aid our ecological situation. Severalstudent groups on campus, for instance, are trying to organize a project to recycle all paper used oncampusâ€”two tons a day. All paper "garbage" would have to be separated from regular garbage, and thepaper separated into the different grades. It would then be picked up at various locations on campus,baled and sold to Georgia Pacific for recycling. Ted Boss, coordinator of the student environmentalaction center, said that the idea first evolved last spring during the Associated Students elections. ASPresident Steve Cooper's campaign platform called for paper recycling and reducing the water wasted oncampus. "If the students feel a need for environmental control and bitch about big industry, then they can look around and see what the campus can do to solve our problem," Boss said. Ridge way Kappa,Edens Hall and the biology department have been collecting their paper for recycling since last quarter.Resident directors from both dorms feel that the students are cooperating very well, and go out of theirway to put paper in the proper containers. Janet Marshall, a resident director at Kappa, said that if dormstudents would use one of their room's garbage cans for paper and one for trash, then collection would be simplified. The biology department has accumulated a large amount of paper. Lynn Cornelius, active inthe recycle effort and a member of the biology department, said, "People have to understand thesignificance of what we're doing. It will have to be publicized a lot more, and some people will never takeit seriously." Cooper said that he is not aware that the AS Legislature itself is doing anything, but that itis "behind the idea." AS Speaker Bert Halprin said that the AS has given its paper to paper drives in thepast. He too added that the legislature is concerned, but that nothing has come up in the meetings yet.Jack Cooley, an administrator, said the administration has looked into the possibility of campus paperrecycling. He foresaw the manpower demand for daily pick-up as one major problem. "If it was financiallypossible, the physical plant trucks could pick up the paper, but because they are operating on a limitedbudget it would be more practical for an outside agency to doit," he said. Sam Boyco of the physicalplant said that about four tons of garbage is collected daily on campus, about half of it is paper. TheSanitary Service Company collects the college waste and buries it in a sanitary land fill at the foot of GStreet, but the physical plant plans to collect it in the future. A spokesman for Georgia Pacific explainedits end of the process. They will buy uncontaminated paper containing no plastics, waxed paper or paper clips. They recycle it themselves into paperboard, . a heavier weight paper used for shoe boxes andtissue cartons. Newsprint is the easiest to recycle, and GP will buy it for $10 a ton. Cut paper andcomputer paper bring better prices, but the price is based on the lowest quality paper contained in an 800 pound bale. The Junior Chamber of Commerce has been holding paper drives in the city approximatelyevery two months and selling the paper to GP. They collect 90 tons of paper in an average drive, butBellingham uses at least 80 tons of paper every day, Cooley said. The Jaycees would like to hirepersonnel to run - their baler, and would prefer college students for part-time work. The college doesn'thave a baler, or a truck to pick up the paper. A truck could possibly be rented from the physical plant,and the Jaycees baler could be used. This would create at least two jobs; one person needed to operate the baler, and someone to pick up the paper and deliver it to GP. The money made from the sale of thepaper would be used to pay these two people. Central locations would have to be established for paperpick up. There are 14 living areas on campus, including Birnam Wood and the trailers, and numerousdepartments and offices. Janitors and individuals would have to cooperate to get the paper to the centrallocations, which would result in about 20 different pick-up areas. . LANGE VOLKSWAGEN Sales: Newand used Volkswagens.

Fairhaven students evaluate their faculty members every four years, and, in effect, promote, hire, andfire them." This statement is incorrect, misleading, and the type of garbled information and rumor whichtoo often misrepresents Fairhaven College. The truth is that Fairhaven students have a meaningfurvoicein, but not complete control over, hiring and firing of faculty. The Fairhaven faculty has as much or morevoice than students, and final authority r e s t s with the Dean, the President, and the Trustees.Recommendations for hiring are made by a committee of five s t u d e n t s and five faculty. R e - h i r i n g decisions are submitted by a committee of five faculty and two students. The latter decisions aremade annually during a faculty THE HUNTSMAN oil the better dressed college bunch shops at THEHUNTSMAN in the Bellingham Mall open Evenings until 9 p.m. member's first three years, again afteranother three year period, and then every four years. There are serious theoretical objections to suchstudent involvement and Fairhaven's definition of "tenure." Whether or not these objections aresupported by practice at Fairhaven is yet unknown, but in no way can anyone validly claim that we haveproven the total or even partial wisdom of student control over faculty appointments. My own interest inthese questions is considerable, but we make a mistake if we place such issues at the head of ourpriorities or if they make us overly frustrated. Specific instances of social injustice and the generalquality of life in Whatcom County remain much more worthy subjects for serious s t u d e n t c o n c e rn and involvement. Robert H. Keller, Jr. Fairhaven College Editor: Science isn't inherently bad. For that matter, behavioral science isn't inherently bad. But there is more to life (in the broadest sense of theword) than how long it takes a rat to learn a maze, or the knee jerk reflex. It seems that the socialsciences, in their efforts to become respectable sciences, whatever the hell that means, have turned thescientific method into an unquestionable, irrevocable fact of life. We now have, at least at Western, andperhaps at every major college and multiversity in America, a "social scientific ideology," no differentthan the dogma of the Catholic Church, Nazi Germany, and "The American Way of Life." I think it istime to take a look at our needs, not in terms of t r a i n i n g for the ''Military-Industrial-Academic-Political Complex" that we call the real world, but in terms ofâ€”shall we sayâ€”Humanistic Education.Perhaps the sciences of psychology, sociology, anthropology, etc. are necessary for the advancementof K n o w l e d g e , Truth, and Democracy, I'm not disputing that now, but it seems that they haveover-shadowed an area of intellectual endeavor which is being neglected more and more each year at our illustrious institutions of higher learning, that being the Art of Living. What I think is necessary aresome alternative curricula which are not hung-up in dogmatic e m p i r i c i s m , i m m e d i a tegratification (grades, credits, quarters, etc.), and bureaucratic fascism. We might call them thebehavioral arts (although the terms probably would be r e p u g n a n t to our more e n t r e n c h e dPsychological Technicians and it might be better to just include the social sciences in the humanitiesdepartment), and their purpose would be to study mankind, which we do anyway, in new and creativeways. The need is there, just ask anybody who wasn't "mature" enough to handle Psychology 301, orany other psych, course for that matter.

Fairhaven College ---------- Western Front - 1971 February 5 - Page 9 ---------- Speaking of Lp's KEN RITCHIE Record Commentator Friday, February 5, 1971 Western Front 9 Manand Music Last week I promised to tell you where to find oddball records. First, find a record store andthen get to know the owner or manager. Be sure that you find a record store and not just a recorddepartment. Record departments in most of the stores in our area have the very latest releases but youcan't find anyone who knows enough about recordings to help you get what they don't stock. If you know how to use the record catalog, fine. But most stores can't even find their copy of the latest releases, letalong what is still available but not stocked. If you know the record number and manufacturer you cansubmit a special order and have a good chance of getting a copy, if the distributor can find one. You willfind some record stores in Vancouver, B.C., and in Seattle. Closer to home, we have Adair's RecordCenter in Langley, B.C. and in beautiful downtown Bellingham, Puget Sounds. Both excellent sources of hard-to-get records. At Adair's you'll find a very small shop, but a gentleman who is anxious to please. Imentioned last week Vera Linn and Gracie Fields. You'll find records by both of these beautiful singersat Adair's. Anyone who was involved with his Majesty's forces in World War II, will remember these twofine performers. If you want to please someone in the forty-plus age group, Fields and Linn will. If youwant to find almost any European singer or bank, try Adair's, you can at least find out if it is available.The enthusiasm is contagious in that store, and it's a legal high. To get to Langley, go out the GuideMeridian, cross the border, and follow the signs, it's about eight miles from the border. As long as you'reup in the vicinity, visit the little delicatessen in Aldergrove. It's just past the only traffic light in town. Afantastic place to go food tripping. A suggestion to reduce paranoia at the border crossing, clean yourcar out, some nefarious hitchhiker might have dropped something up under the dashboard. Customspeople do occasionally check your car. Back in Bellingham, go to Puget Sound' if you want to see avery good selection of very good records. Selection is limited to what Bill Dwyer likes. He likes blues,folk, good rock, if you hear it on 'LG FM and likyit, he probably has it or can get it for you. I have askedhim for some really odd records and he usually can find out if it's available and he will try to get it. Anexample: the soundtrack from Walk Disney's 'Fantasia.' This was done in 1939, in stereo, it's listed but it is very hard to find. I am very upset with the Disney people for only booking 'Fantasia' for three days inBellingham, and not getting the album out is just poor business policy. I want to hear the part againwhere Deems Taylor asks the motion picture audience to imagine colors when they hear music. Doesn'teveryone? Adair's and Puget Sounds, two places that share my enthusiasm for records. A mind-mergeand enjoyable. We must get away from delicatessens and movies and back to records. * * * * TheJames Taylor record on Euphoria is excellent, good technical quality and very enjoyable. I would guess it is just a tape that was made during an early recording session and released now that the J. Taylorbandwagon is rolling. According to Billboard that bandwagon will gross $750,000 from concerts in thenext few months. I don't begrudge anyone a fair return from their efforts but I am somewhat afraid it might turn Taylor into plastic. Billboard also mentioned this week that Taylor's brothers and sister are-going torelease some albums and the Taylors may be the "Kennedys of pop music" and "James Taylor hasemerged as the Dylan of the '70's." I wonder why these hype writers and puff agents can't accept an artist as he is and allow them to appear as mortals, like the rest of us. Too many artists have been warped bythe SuperStar treatment. Read Lennon's interview in the last two issues of Rolling Stone magazine, Ihope he can recover from the enormous pain he endured. Finally this week, David Bowie will have hissecond album out on Mercury, THE MAN WHO SOLD THE WORLD. His first album, DAVID BOWIE,has a cover portrait with one of his pupils three times as large as the other . . . perhaps you can relate tot h a t . . . and the songs are good too. SHALOM. Western's new director of bands left his position atthe University of Washington to teach here. William Cole, director of bands artd trumpet teacher, washead of the Husky marching band and actively involved in the music program there before changing tothe Western music faculty this year. Cole taught at the UW for 13 years, taking his bands to the RoseBowl on three occasions and making many regional and national television appearances. He is engagedin the same type of music curriculum here, with the exception of a marching band. "There are marchingbands in this conference, but I doubt if there will be one at Westernâ€”we don't have a field for it here and there just isn't the financing available for such a project." Several factors prompted Cole to make themove to the Bellingham campus. "I felt there was potential hereâ€”and I was right. Interest in musiceducation and band runs high here. It is a good department for attracting students," Cole said. "Icertainly don't think I came here to try to slow down as though things were getting too hectic at the UW.Things are moving just as fast for me here at Western. In fact, the only thing that's slowed down for mein Bellingham is my own professional trumpet playing. I played in the Seattle Symphony, so I no longerhave _that activity." Cole knew of the music department at Western and was watching its development. Professor Ager, chairman of the music department, was a former student of Cole's so his program wasfamiliar to Cole. Desiring to spend more time in education and concerts, Cole saw an advantage inmoving to a smaller college. He conducts two workshop bands, commonly called lab bands, hoping thestudents involved will offer their own compositions for group performance. "We play a lot of the big bandrock sound, and it's being fairly well accepted here. But the band is here to serve everybody. We wantmore students, even non-majors, to come in and play." School Levy Vote The failure of a special school levy coming up for a Feb. 9 vote could mean that over 100 teachers in the Bellingham area won't berehired next year. District voters are being asked to approve a $2.4 million levy required to maintain thepresent level of education. The $2.4 million figure represents 22 per cent of the budget. Jim Hansard,chairman of a special citizens committee which investigated the current levy situation and recommendedthe $2.4 million figure, said his group things the levy will pass, and won't require a second vote in March. The levy does not permit teacher salary increases, but is essentially a hold-the-line budget which permits keeping the present faculty. If passed, the levy will add $8.25 to each $100 now being paid in propertytaxes.

NO. 1 WAGE AND TAX STATEMENT 1 0 7Q Copy Câ€”For employee's records - lt;â€¢â€” Type or print EMPLOYER'S identification number, name and address EDITOR'S NOTE: For many students this will be the first time they have to fill out their income tax forms. The following article waswritten to help s t u d e n t s overcome and understand what the government is trying to say on theirincome tax forms. Question: I just got my W-2 forms. Now what? Answer: You should have received abooklet entitled 1970 Federal Income Tax Forms from the government. Before you can do anything youmust have this booklet. So if you don't have it, go down to the nearest post office and there is a standfilled with different forms. The only one which should interest you is the one with the title mentionedabove. After you get the right form, turn to the first inside page and tear it out. The page will have a large blue 1040 in the upper left hand corner. Now you are ready to start. You should have copies B and C of your W-2 form (your employer keeps copy A). There are six squares on the W-2, although generallyonly four will be filled out with numbers. The only squares you will be concerned with are ones listed:Federal Income Tax Withheld and Wages Paid Subject to Withholding in 1970. You'll see another boxwhich is headed F.I.C.A. Tax Withheld, but this is only there to confuse you and it really means howAgain much you paid into your old age fund and disability insurance. This figure will not be added toyour income tax withheld figure. On your 1040 form fill in your name, address and social security number in the boxes. If you receive the forms in the mail, your name and other information is on the mailinglabel. This label can be peeled off and inserted into the box. So far at least 10 per cent of the tax f o r ms received by the government do not have this done and these forgetful people will not be getting theirreturns for some time, while others won't get anything at all because the government can't find them. So don't forget to do this. Moving down to line 1, check off whether you're single or married and whether you are filing separate or joint returns, (we'll get into this later) and then fill out line 7 through 9 for yourexemptions: if single one exemption; married, two, and so on. Enter the total number of exemptions inline 11. On line 12 enter the fiture from your W-2 which is under Wages Paid Subject To Withholding. Ifyou want, you can stop at this line and the government will figure out the rest of your form by a computer and send you a refund if you have it coming. Just sign and date the form at the bottom and send it to:Internal Revenue Service Center FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION WAGES ' PAID SUBJECT TO WITHHOLDING IN 1970 i 1 YEE'S . â€¢ number ^^ EE'S name ond address (includin; OTHERCOMPENSATION?

Question: After getting down to line 12, I decided to fill the rest out myself, but got lost in all the different adding and subtracting of lines. Which spaces should I fill in? Answer: Let'ssuppose you are married and made a straight wage of $2390 and plan to use the simple, standard 1040form. As long as you don't have any dividend payments to declare or interest from savings accountsover $100, you can just fill in lines 16 and 18 with the same figure you put in line 12. This figure shouldbe your wages ($2390) or as the government calls it: Adjusted Gross Income. On line 19 you fill in whattaxes you owe. To get this figure you go to page 10 of your booklet and look under table 2. There are 15different tables on pages 10 through 14 and each table corresponds with the number of exemptions youclaim. Example: you claim three exemptions, so you'll use table 3. After finding table 2, go Smiles andraised hands are only part of the Vikette repertoire.

Photo By DAVE SHERMANVikettes Add Game Glamour A swinging group of Western coeds have organized "to create pep andspirit and a little soul during halftime, besides representing the Black Student Union," according toVikette president Sherry Patrick. The Vikettes were formed during the second week of November, andperformed for the first time at the Western-Sacramento State basketball game Dec. 7. The ambitiousprojects the Vikettes have set for the future include a trip to the away game between Western andCentral Feb. 19. This will be the second away performance for the group, which traveled to Tacoma onJan. 4 when Western met the University ofPugetSound basketball squad. About 20 coeds comprise anew alternative to the old drill team concept, performing synchronized figures and formations to "soul"music. The Vikette future seems to hinge on efforts at fund raising. They are planning a tea Sunday, from 3-5 p.m. which will feature the Funk Experience performing live. If the group can obtain enough supportthey plan to extend performances into the fall football season. In the meantime the group will continueswinging to soul at home basketball games. down the list of numbers until you find your adjusted grossincome (the figure entered in lines 12, 16 and 18). The list of numbers go up to $10,000 and your wagescome between $2375 and $2400. Next you move over to the next column which says "Your Tax Is" andfind you own Uncle Sam $8. The $8 figure will be entered on line 19. Now move on to line 20 and youfind you have to pay a tax surcharge. A surtax is basically a tax on your taxes and what you owe on this tax can be found on page 15 of your booklet. If your income tax is under $300, then you don't have topay anything. In your case this is true, so enter a zero in line 10. Put the figure $8 in lines 21, 23, and25. Now for the good stuffâ€”if you have money coming back. Enter the figure from your W-2 form whichis under Federal Income Tax Withheld in lines 26 and 29. Let's say you paid the government $120 overthe year. So put this figure in line 26 and 29. Now don't ball things up when you move to line 30 andfigure the big red BALANCE DUE written on this lines means you should put down the government owes $112. This space is reserved for people who didn't have enough income tax taken from their wages andstill owe the government more. You want to stay away from line 30 if possible. The line you want is line31. It has a large red OVERPAYMENT and you subtract the $8 you own from the $20 you alreadypaid the government and should come up with the figure $11. Enter this figure in line 31 and again in line32 next to the Refunded box if you want the money. And why you wouldn't is beyond me. As I said thegovernment will figure out your income tax return and if you mess it up, they'll probably be able to figureit out for you anyway. Question: I've heard my parents can claim me as an exemption and I can claimmyself also. True? Answer: Yes, but you have to meet a few qualifications before you can do this. Yourparents must pay at least half of your support and you must be enrolled in school for at least five months as a full-time student. For an example: If you worked during the summer and made $1000 and duringthe school year your father paid $1200 for your schooling and housing, then both you and your fathermay claim you as an exemption. In your case, you would get back whatever taxes you paid on $1000and your father would get a $625 deduction (you). Question: What other special deductions do students get? Can they deduct things like books and tuition? Answer: Unfortunately not. The government doesn't consider going to school work and files it under "Hobbies and Other Good Times." So a student cannot deduct books and tuition as a business expense. They can't even deduct the shoe leather wastedwaslking between classes as charity. The only time a student can make deductions for schoolexpenses is when he or she is going in connection with a job. A student who is taking a drafting coursebecause his employer told him to, then can deduct his fees and books. Question: I heard students don't have to pay taxes if they make under a certain amount. Right? Answer: Right, although the amountapplies to everyone, not just students. If a single student figures he will make under $1725 during theyear, then he gets a special form from his employer and the employer won't deduct any taxes from hispaycheck. The figure goes up with the number of exemptions claimed. If married, the figure is $2350and so on. Question: Do I pay taxes on a scholarship? Answer: No. But again there are certain rulesgoverning the scholarship program and whether they are taxable. As long as you are using thescholarship to further your education, you are on safe ground. Exceptions include scholarships whichare payments from your employer and where the scholarship is a prize and doesn't say the student hasto use it just for school. The same rules apply to research grants. A good rule of thumb is to rememberthat the person receiving the grant or scholarship should not be working for the company giving the grant or scholarship, or being compensated for past, present or future services with the company. Question:Should I fill out the long or short form? Answer: If you mean by the "long" form schedules A and B withthe itemized deductions, it is recommended to fill out the short form. Generally most students don't have enough deductions to declare that would equal the amount given by the government in their straightdeduction rate. But if you own a house or property and have some doctor bills and other expenses, then figure out both forms and see which one gets you the most back from the government. The same is true for filing joint or separate returns. Check first to see which will get the most money back. If both thewife and husband have low incomes, then joint returns are the best, but if one has high medicalexpenses maybe separate returns will be the best bargain. Question: What happens if I don't file a taxreturn? Answer: Two things. If the government owes you money, then you won't get it back (but I don'tthink this is what you are asking). If you owe the government and they find out, you may get five years.It should be noted the government checks about 90 per cent of the tax returns, mostly for math errors,but they do audit some of the lower income tax returns. ---------- Western Front - 1971 February 5 - Page 11 ---------- Friday, February b, 19/1 Western Front TT An International 420 pulls away from the dock at Lakewood,site of the District Championship Regatta this April. YachtersWhip UBC and UW Western's VikingYacht Club Racing Team upset both the University of Washington and the University of British Columbia to place second in an intercollegiate sailing regatta in Vancouver, B.C. last weekend. Western'syachtsmen came a close second to the University of Victoria, losing by only 2% points. Outstandingsailing tactics were displayed by skipper Bob Franks and his crew Dar Hoyt who sailed past six othercollegiate teams to place first in their division. Other Western helmsmen and crews exhibiting fiveseamanship were Racing Team Captain Rick R o t t m a n and J a n i ne Shinkoskey, Mike Collins andCheryl Baldridge, and Paul Plesha and Diane Robertson. "This regatta has given me confidence thatWestern will place well in the District Championship Regatta this spring," Rottman said. Western willhost the District C h a m p i o n s h i p on Lake Whatcom. The top two teams will then represent theNorthwest in the National Championships held on the East Coast. Matmen Host UBC Western'swrestling team hosts the University of British Columbia (UBC) tomorrow at 2 p.m. The Viks will wrestleOlympic style and not the accustomed US collegiate style. By wrestling Olympic style there will besome different rules. For instance, there is no riding time (where one wrestler dominates' his opponentfor a certain length of time). Another rule change is that a wrestler doesn't have to have complete control of his opponent for a pin. In Olympic style, the opponent's shoulders can be partially exposed. Randall Highlights Banquet Safety Vic Randall needed a small truck to carry away awards he received at theannual Viking football banquet held Friday night at the Elk's Club. The Burlington senior carried awayfour trophies, including Most V a l u a b l e Player, I n s p i r a t i o n a l , Defensive Back-of-the-Year.Tackle Mike Knutsen received offensive lineman honors while tackle Jeff Michaelson took the defensivelineman laurels. Freshman defensive tackle Ray Kelley was named Tiger-of-the-Year. Conrad Hamiltonwas the master of ceremonies with head coach Boyde Long handing out letter awards to the 36 gridironfelt winners. Western's next home match will be on Feb. 13, when the Vik matmen host Central. TheWildcats, defending Evergreen Conference champions, are currently ranked eighth among the small-college wrestling powers. Viking Tennis Outlook Bright Western's tennis team could â€¢â€¢- prove tobe a surprise contender in the Evergreen Conference this spring., The Vikings' top hope should be Steve Doerrer, a three-year letterman, who was Western's number one man last spring. Returning along withDoerrer are four other lettermen. The number two netter is expected to be Arnie Larson, replacing JimSolberg, the number two man last year, who graduated. Others returning are Steve Adelstein, FrankWilliams and Dan Flynn. Western's tennis team, a member of the Evergreen Conference, will beginregular season play in the spring. They are presently holding informal work-outs every day in the gym.The Viks will be facing Central, Eastern, Whitworth, Oregon Tech, Eastern Oregon, Southern Oregonand Oregon College of Education in competition play. Coach Don Wiseman said that he would notmake any predictions as to the team's capabilities at this time. He would only say that "basically,- wewill be stronger. But other teams might be also." $5 Million Purse Ali-Frazier Bout In Carver GymMuhammad Ali (Cassius Clay) and Joe Frazier will fight it out Mar. 8 in Carver Gym. On a closed circuittelevision screen. The Program Commission, the "W" Club and Sterling Recreation Corp. have bandedtogether to present the only closed-circuit showing of the $5,000,000 fight north of Seattle and south ofVancouver. The 2600 tickets go on sale Monday at the VU desk and the Huntsman in Bellingham Mall.All tickets are reserved and on a first-come basis. Card carrying students will be seated for $5 while non-students will be nicked for $11. Don't scream, cheap seats run $12.50 and $15 in Seattle sayd ProgramCommissioner Denny Hjeresen. The Frazier match will climax a comeback series of bouts for Clay. Alipolished off Jerry Quary in three rounds last November, and in December Oscar Bonavena went to the15th before being decked by the self proclaimed king. However, Clay's 43 month retirement caught upwith him in the Bonavena bout. The lightning fast reactions of the Liston-Patterson era were gone. Frazier had to gain confidence watching Bonavena almost go the full distance. In Atlanta, Clay predicted thatFrazier would be less trouble than Quarry had been. Few take this claim seriously for Frazier is noslouch when it comes to pounding opponents. The 26 year-old Philadelphian easily gained thechampion's perch Clay vacatedback in 1967. In November light-heavyweight Bob Foster lasted a barehalf-dozen rounds against him in Detroit. Frazier's unbroken years of training will stand him in good stead against "the butterfly who stings like a bee." The New York match promises to be the most lucrativeevent in sports history. The closed-circuit revenue is expected to top $20,000,000 with Clay and Frazierpicking up $2.5 million checks. Michaelson's a Double Threat On Field or Mat for Viks By BOB TAYLOR Associate Editor The pounding, the crunching, the bruising of Â§|jÂ§ sports competition just didn't endwith football for one Viking athlete. Jeff Michaelson was no sooner recovering from the long hard footballseason when it was time to turn out for wrestling. Michaelson, Western's All-Evergreen Conferencedefensive tackle, is also a heavyweight on this winter's wrestling team. The marvelous thing about theformer Bellingham High graduate is that he seems destined for stardom in both sports. In football,Michaelson has performed admirably for two seasons on the grid-iron. As a sophomore he teamed wtihhonorable mention All-American Butts Giraud. The duo proved to be the toughest tackle combination inEvco. This past fall Michaelson teamed with All-Evco J e f f Michaelson squirming from the "down MikeTasker to form an almost impregnable position" in a practice session right-side on the Vik defensive line.While starring in football, Michaelson is far from un-glamorous in wrestling. As a Vik matman,Michaelson has been progressing rapidly. Michaelson, as a freshman last winter was inexperienced incollegiate wrestling. However, with one season under his belt, the Vik grappler has proved a toughcompetition this season. Earlier this season, Michaelson finished fourth in the tough University ofWashington Invitational Tournament. Coach Lanny Bryant says that if Michaelson continues to progress, Michaelson could in time become the first outstanding heavyweight Western has had in recent years.Michaelson isn't gigantic compared to some of the 23 5-pound-plus heavyweights who become nationalchampions. Still, Michaelson isn't minute as he tips the scales at about 210-pounds. Michaelson's strong asset is quickness. Bryant says Michaelson is one of the quickest heavyweights he's ever coached.Bryant says of Michaelson, "Every heavyweight I've ever coached has been large and slow. Michaelson,however has Michaelson turning the tide . the speed and finesse of a 177-pounder." Michaelson'schances of an Evco wrestling title this year don't appear to be good. One of the best heavyweights in theNorthwest is Central's Ed Harris. Michaelson speaking of Harris said, "Harris is really tough. I've wrestled him before and he's beaten me badly." Fortunately for Michaelson and Western, Central's Harris is asenior this year, so Michaelson will have more of a chance for the coveted Evco title in the future.Michaelson said his goal this year is to just place at the Evco tournament on Feb. 19. Before hiswrestling days are over, Michaelson said he would like to win the Evco title. "Winning the Evco title would be a great honor, because winning it would be assurance of going to the nationals." Michaelson'shobbies, that is when he has time, are reading short-stories and bowling. Michaelson, a history andEnglish major, is not only interested in athletics. Michaelson says, "I try â€¢to balance myself. I want tobe interested in as many subjects as possible. I guess you'd say I'm kind of a "Renaissance Man."Michaelson with the advantage. ---------- Western Front - 1971 February 5 - Page 12 ---------- 12 Western Front Friday, February 5, 1971 western front SPORTS 76-71 In Overtime Viks Squeak OutVictory Over SFU Rudy Thomas' dunk shot with 41 seconds left in overtime, proved to be the winningbasket in Western's 76-71 comeback basketball victory over Simon Fraser University (SFU) last Tuesdaynight in Burnaby, B.C. Rudy Thomas powers his way up for another bucket. Thomas is Evco Player ofthe Week for his work against Eastern last Friday. The Vikings, behind 40-27 at half time, trailed theClansmen by as much as 16 points early in the second half. A Big Blue explosion led by the scoring ofGary White and a fantastic overall defensive effort caught the Clansmen 61-61 on a Thomas field goalwith two minutes remaining in regulation play. Western held the Canadian five to 23 points in thesecond. White, meanwhile, scored 21 of his game-leading 26 points after the intermission. Thomas'tying goal came after Viking forward Lee Roy Shults sustained a serious sprain of his left ankle. Theburly junior will be out of further action this week. Simon Fraser guard Bill Robinson hit two free throwswith 1:18 left to give the Clan a 63-61 lead, but White countered with a basket at 0:57, knotting the score at 63-63. R o b i n s o n spent the remaining seconds maneuvering for the last shot, a forced one astime ran out. White put Western ahead quickly in the overtime as he took Thomas' center jump tip in for a lay-up. Two field goals by Larry Clark and Robinson gave SFU a 67-65 lead. White fired in anothergoal off a fast break to tie it and seconds later hit a free throw for a 68-67 Viking lead. Thomas hitanother free throw a minute later, but a field goal by SFU center Wayne Morgan knotted the score again 69-69 with two minutes left. Again the two teams traded two-pointers, White canning two free throwsand Robinson firing in a 25-foot jump shot for the Clansmen. Western then got. the ball into Thomas,who crammed it through over two defenders for the winning points. White followed with another fastbreak lay-up and Larson put in a free throw to ice it, 76-71. S h u l t s was simply outstanding in the firsthalf as he kept the slow-starting Vikings in the contest. He scored 14 points in the period along withnumerous rebounds, assists and steals.. Western didn't get on the scoreboard until the 14 minute mark as Mike Franza made a foul shot to put an end to eight unanswered Clan points. From there the Vikings stayed within seven until the last three minutes when Simon Fraser got numerous fast breaks. Clarkled the first half Clan attack with 14 points. Morgan put in ten. White's 26-point effort was followed byShults with 20, Larson 9, Franza 9, Thomas 8, John Reed 2 and Mike Preston 2. Substitutes forwardRoger Fuson, and guard Terry Brower, played a big part in igniting the second half fireworks.

The Western Front has obtained # background information from the studentnewspapers of campuses of the candidates. The controversial involvements range from charges of beingagainst a â€¢ nationwide lettuce and grape boycott to a discrepancy in public statements concerningfuture employment. Arnold Grobman, who will be on â€¢ campus next Friday, is presently specialassistant to the president at the Chicago Circle campus of the University of Illinois. He took over m thatpost after announcing his resignation last spring as vice chancellor of academic affairs. An "account inthat school's newspaper states that he resigned * under a barrage of protest over his handling of theselection of a new dean of the college of Liberal Arts and Sciences. He had also been heavily criticizedfor his handling of the budget for Arts and Sciences. Last June 17 it was published in the newspaper that he said that he "does not plan to look for another position while working for College President John E.Corbally. He said "I'm going to really plunge into this (his new post)." His application to Western had tobe submitted by May 15. . Candidate Richard G. Landini, who will be on campus on Monday andTuesday, is academic vice-president at the University of Montana. He was described by Carey Yunker,editor of the Montana Kaimrh, as "open, friendly and prone to tell more than he should." However, hehas come under attack recently for his role in the non-hiring of an English professor. Landini s u p p o se d l y told the English department that if it voted to hire a particular applicant who had been fired fromStanford University for his Marxist teachings, he would go along with the vote. Instead, after an almostunanimous vote to hire, Landin passed along the application with no recommendation, essentially turningit down. Candidate Paul H. Cashman, who will be on campus on Nov. 5, is vice president for studentaffairs at the University of Minnesota. He was described as "a quiet, soft spoken guy who tries to avoidconfrontation and acrimony." Much criticism has been leveled at Cashman for recently cancelling auniversity moratorium of not buying any lettuce or grapes, begun in response to a United Farm Workersprotest. Candidate Frank B. Dilley, who will be on campus on Oct. 29, is associate provost at theUniversity of Delaware. He was described as unobtrusive and not too well known. Most of the staffmembers of- the campus newspaper were not aware that he was still at the school. Dilley, formerpresident of the local chapter of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP), has workedclosely with the union on salary proposals. He also helped set up a student evaluation book of coursesand professors. Candidate Paul J. Olscamp, who was on campus yesterday, is vice-chancellor forstudent programs at Syracuse University in New York. He was described as a "very intelligent personwho knows all the campus politics." Olscamp helped develop a health service plan. He was alsoresponsible for drawing up a plan to have two students sit on the school's Board of Trustees. CandidateJohn C. Guilds, who will be on campus today and at a tea in the registration center at 2:30 p.m., is vice-provost at the University of South Carolina. The staff of the school newspaper was unable to supply anyinformation about him. western BVeW THâ‚¬_ COOP Â©OOfc.STote is MOT YEAiH... 0 gt;OSTt gt;ST I'e/ke. THEIR. PfeOFIT5 UOÂ£RE.

FRIDAY, October 18,1974 Vol. 67 No.5 Ten Cents Recycle all paper ' Anderson resigns post ' for position in Wisconsin â€¢ by CONNIETEDROW and GREG COHEN Citing professional advancement as a primary motive, Jerry M. Anderson, â€¢ vice president for academic affairs, has resigned his post effective Dec. 20. Anderson, 41, who came to Western from Central Michigan University last year, will assume the position of vice â€¢ chancellor at the University of Wisconsin at Oshkosh, Wis. Jan. 6, College President Charles J. Flora â€¢ saidTuesday he has no immediate 'â€¢â€¢ plans to name a successor to Anderson a n d will temporarilyassume Anderson's duties himself. Anderson's salary at Wisconsin will â€¢ be $33,000, an increase of$4,000 over his current salary of $29,000. Anderson had been interviewed for the new position inWisconsin during â€¢ the past summer and received word of his selection by the university's Board ofRegents in late September. The board made the official selection â€¢ announcement Oct. 4. Discounting rumors his resignation was based on not being selected as a finalist for the presidency of Western, â€¢Anderson said, "Had I wanted to be â€¢ president of this college, I would not have come as vice president for academic affairs, nor would I be assuming the position at the University of Wisconsin. ' "Thechanging role of a (college) president has made the position less attractive to me at this time in mycareer," he added. Stressing the problems he has faced as an administrator during the past year,Anderson stated he was very disappointed with the level of financial support for higher education in thestate of Washington and the lack of competetive faculty salaries. "The administration can't be effective iffunding is not available at the state level nor if faculty salaries are not competetive," he concluded.Anderson said the University of Wisconsin is an innovative campus, and, added he is optimistic about his appointment. The university, third largest of 13 universities in the Wisconsin system, is underconsideration for a modular calendar system. The system would include 13-week modules with a three-week tuition-free module during December. "The administrative philosophy at Wisconsin is that of aconsultive model in decision making and leadership. I will be acting as an education catalyst." i gt;President Flora to assume responsibility of vice presidency College President Charles J. Flora 0 saidTuesday he is confident he can adequately assume the duties of Academic Vice President JerryAnderson, who announced his _ resignation Monday. Flora said Anderson's resignation was completelyunexpected and he has no immediate plans to fill the post. "I don't propose to name a new * one (vicepresident) at all" Flora said adding that Western's new president, to be selected from six finalists by theend of fall quarter, should have a hand * in the decision. "I don't want to do anything to jeopardize thatopportunity," he said. Anderson's resignation could mean * Western will be without an academic vicepresident until the college's new president takes over next, summer. Flora gaid he plans to consult theexecutive committee of the All-College Senate for input what course of action he should take with regardto the 'resignation. He added he is "quite satisfied" with Anderson's performance as vice president - andsaid he recognizes Anderson's desire to take advantage of the opportunity to pursue his career in hishome state, Wisconsin. 'He grabbed the brass ring," Flora said. "I never fault anyone for grabbing thebrass ring " Assuming the additional duties of vice president will add substantially to F l o r a ' sworkload as president, especially when the state legislature convenes in January, but Flora said he hasno doubts that he can handle the job on his own. JERRY ANDERSON The selection of Western's newvice president will be one of orderly transition, Anderson said. Anderson received his doctorate incommunications from the University of Wisconsin and is a native of that area. He held the position of vice provost at Central Michigan University five years, and he taught speech and communications atMichigan State University eight years. Anderson, who came to Western at a time when the college was experiencing reduced enrollment, was immediately thrust into the role of devising the college's firstfaculty Reduction-In-Force (RIF) proposals. "Looking back on the last year, I feel it was difficult butnecessary in constructively shaping the future of Western," he said. Inside... Handicapped people saythey have rights, tool An ad hoc committee appointed by the Bellingham city council is currently studying ways to alleviate some of the problems faced by Bellingham and Western's handicapped population.

What to do with the profit has not yet been decided, but the AS Board of Directors willdiscuss recommendations from the Bookstore Council. "We'll give it back to the students," AS president Carla Higginson said at last week's board meeting. Hugh Larkin, AS vice president and chairman of theBookstore Council, says he doesn't know where the money will go. One possible plan is for an increaseof work-study grants sponsored by the bookstore. This program provided $15,000 in grants to studentslast year, Larkin said. A portion of the profit will probably go into the bookstore's reserve fund. Thisreserve is used to meet expenses during non-profitable months. According to George Elliot, bookstoremanager, the co-op operates at a loss ranging from $1,000 to $9,000, eight months out of each year. Heexplained that a drop in sales after the beginning of each quarter is the major cause. "We foresee, in thenear future, the need for new facilities," Elliot said, adding that the bookstore is becoming increasinglycramped for space. They will rely on the reserve to provide funds for building expenses. Essentially anon-profit organization, the bookstore is a self-sufficient entity which receives no funds from outsidesources. "We're a business," Elliot said, "and like any business, the bookstore has to operate in theblack." A percentage of last year's gain was due to a decrease in expenses, he said. Personnelreorganization which increased efficiency of the staff was a major factor in decreased salaryexpenditures. Other operating costs such as. advertising, freight and building maintenance and repairwere decreased. These cutbacks added significantly to the profit. "We've cut $52,000 off our expenses in the last three years," Elliot added. Sales in the textbook department showed a marked decrease in thelast year. Elliot attributes this to the declining enrollment. "There were 400 fewer students than theprevious year," he said. He estimates that each student buys $60 in books each year. In contrast totextbook sales, general merchandise sales shot up approximately $47,000. Elliot cites the sale of mini-calculators as the direct cause of the increase. He said the bookstore sold $30,000 worth of calculatorslast year, but added that the profit was only $2,000 to $3,000. Art supplies were another source of highsales. Elliot said that the bookstore's art supply prices are the lowest in the area, which drawscustomers to the store. Approximately $1,800 of the profit came from interest accumulated during theyear in a savings account. Last year's net profit is over $J 9,000 higher than that of the previous year.Just where this profit will go is to be discussed at the next AS Board of Directors meeting Thursday at 4p.m. in Viking Union 224. $44,000 PROFIT - The Student Co-op Bookstore netted $44,000 in the lastfiscal year, but is undecided as to its disposal. â€” photo by George McQuade " \ shorts sfdelltes A f-large positions opea on AS board Elections for four at-large positions on the A.S.

Herbold indicated that manystudents are becoming more interested in the social structures of prisons and that the representative will be able to answer then-questions about job possibilities in the prison systems. Each year one branchof the military service is represented at the annual session. This year the U.S. Coast Guard will answerquestions for a career that Herbold said has become more desirable for graduates in the last few years."Since the end of the Vietnam War we have found that many students are interested in a militarycareer," Herbold said. Representatives from the Civil Service Commission will answer questions anddiscuss proper procedures for applying for federal employment. plan returns little if any profit, ManagerGeorge Elliot claims. "Last year the bookstore lost approximately $2,000 in the textbook department,"he added. "The purpose of the buy-back policy is to help the student and provide as many books aspossible in order to save the students money." The economics of the buy-back plan at first appearconfusing. The bookstore refunds 50 per cent of the original retail price to the student, and then resellsthe book at 75 per cent of its initial price. For example, a new book purchased at $10 would be soldback to the bookstore for $5. Then it would be resold at $7.50, or 75 per cent its original price. A n y p ro f i t margin maintained by the bookstore is used to defer costs of the buy-back program, Elliotexplained. Last year, the markup percentage was 85 per cent. That figure was reduced 10 per . cent topass along savings to students. The decreases are expected to save students $6,000 each academicyear. Student grievances kick off amendment to constitution . Student grievances over facultydomination of the All-College Senate has kicked off an attempt to amend parts of the senateconstitution. Last May, students turned down a proposal to ratify a r e v i s e d version of theconstitution by a vote of 288 to 138. Steve Barrett, chairperson of the student caucus, said he didn'tknow why students turned down, the ratification proposal last year. But he did express concern overstudent's disenchantment with the senate. B a r r e t t . feels faculty domination of the senate is the ma i n root of student dissatisfaction. He pointed out that one out of 17 faculty members are representedin the senate whereas only one of 630 students are members of the senate. A number of proposalshave been considered, all of them still on the drawing board and all attempting to make a more efficientbody through some change in the membership ratio. Once a proposal is worked out, the best chance ofpassage is through a petition in which 10 per cent of two senate constituencies (either students,faculty, staff or administration) must approve. Once approved t h e r e , then all four constituencies mustapprove it. Barrett admitted that the s t r u g g l e to amend the c o n s t i t u t i on difficult one. wouldbe In a memo to the Board of Trustees in June, 1973-74 Student Caucus Chairperson Doug Potterstated, "The senate is weighted heavily in favor of faculty: 23 faculty to 13 students. So is the Academic Coordinating Commission: 12 faculty to four students. The Executive Committee is likewise lopsided:five faculty to one student ... at the very least the revisions should be voted on by the constituencies. "If this step does not o c c u r , " said Potter, "the constitution will appear to have little validity in theeyes of the college community." Chairperson of the senate, George Gerhold of chemistry' faculty,stated the amendment route is the way to go but was discouraged by a lack of student interest in votinglast May. Gerhold asked, "Where were you (students)? More students voted against the revisedconstitution than for it which may be the way most students felt. But what was the student vote? Itseems to me it was around 200 or 300 votes." Gerhold added, "The lack of votes was most damningagainst the senate. I just believe most students don't care." ---------- Western Front - 1974 October 18 - Page 3 ---------- ayv October ig;t974 Westefn-Ftbht 3 Campus Crusade meets Campus Crusade for Christ this year willbe holding twice-weekly meetings at various rooms on campus.

Hogness,Washington State University President Glenn Terrell and College President Charles J. Flora spoke toabout 100 people at the Monday night gathering. "In the years of 1975 to 1977, Washington will be 26 to28 per cent behind other states in salaries," Terrell said. "Wages of faculty at colleges have fallen behind farther than any other state employes," Flora added. Hogness also predicted "in the next five yearsWashington state may be one of the leading areas in the marine sciences." The University of Washington was one of four sea-grant colleges in the United States, which were provided to promote greater ability to explore the sea and its vast resources. The role of president has "changed a whale of a lot since Istarted the job," Flora said. The many agencies developed since hs started the job are some of thechanges. "Time and emotional pressures created by external agencies outside the college are great,"Flora conceded. Rights enforced for disabled by DEBBIE Mc BRIDE Like minority groups and women,handicapped people are discovering they are citizens with the right to enjoy life, liberty and the pursuit ofhappiness. Being handicapped in Bellingham, or on Western's campus, can definitely limit an individual's pursuit of happiness and many other things. For instance, it's impossible to get from Miller Hall to thenew Huxley building or Arntzen Hall in a wheelchair. In a laudably sensitive action last month, theBellingham city council appointed an ad hoc committee to recommend ways the city can alleviate someof the unnecessary blockades to normal life for Bellingham's handicapped .population. The committee'sreport will be presented at the council meeting Monday at 8 p.m. in City Hall, according to councilmanGeorge Drake. Drake, an associate professor of sociology, has long been committed to the idea ofcommunity participation* in government and instigated the task force to study the problems of thehandicapped in Bellingham. The committee's purpose was to find out what it is. like to be handicapped in Bellingham and to suggest ways the city can respond, Drake said. The committee was directed tostudy hiring practices, the physical design of the city, and administrative policies for the handicappedparticularly regarding health and safety. Drake noted that there are no publicly marked parking spaces for the handicapped in town, many curbs are too high for a wheelchair and it takes a "grotesque" effort toattend the city council meetings in a wheelchair. Besides physically handicapped people, the task forcereport will include problems of people with mental and sensory limitations. At the council meeting,members of different handicapped groups will speak, each attempting to explain what their handicapmeans and how the city can help them. ^ On Sept. 23, the city council passed a resolution committingitself "to pursue such courses of action that shall further the normalization of the lives of the handicappedin this city." Bellingham is the first city in this state to begin to actively enforce the rights ofhandicapped individuals as outlined in the state's recent affirmative action legislation, Drake said. held at6:30 p.m. in Miller Hall 162.

Anderson's leaving, coupled with the stepping down of President Flora, willcomplete the housekeeping of two of the more prominent figures in RIF. Without these two around toremind us of RIF, maybe the college can forget its tulmultuous recent past and embark on a newbeginning. The new college president has to have somebody who he can depend on for Anderson'sposition. Anderson's leaving closes the door on the possibility of a personality conflict between anentrenched official and a new boss arriving in town. Many people on campus felt Anderson wasconstantly running for college president. His leaving will make it easier to stifle conjection on "what mighthave been" if ;he was chosen. â€” Dennis thumbs down It's too bad that Jerry Anderson, academic vicepresident and provost is leaving. He's leaving at a time when Western needs him most. The presentcollege president is leaving. His successor will need someone in Anderson's position to familiarize himwith the campus and, more importantly, provide some continuity between administrations. WhenAnderson arrived here last fall, he was immediately engulfed in the formation and operation of theReduction in Force (RIF) policy. He was the man who had to make many of the tricky decisions on howthe different departments should sustain their losses. In an effort to prevent Western from ever sufferingthrough another year of RIF, Anderson was the prime mover behind the new Academic Planning Guidethat puts the college's projections for specific periods of time on paper. The college will miss hisexpertise as he was involved in a similar program at Central Michigan University, from which he came toWestern. . The college will suffer for losing such a man. Ritchie Abortion assertion of rights, not trauma Not since the craze of students cramming into telephone booths have so many bodies been jammed into such close quarters. At least that was the situation last week as classes resumed at Western. Somesources on campus said the squashing of students into classrooms was the beginning of an experimentaimed at helping them prepare for the predicted world population crisis. Local supermarkets reportedbrisk sales in deodorants since four out of five classes' made "Right Guard," "Sure," or "Ban" courserequirements. However, gas masks' and nose plugs were a common sight on campus. A new policycalled the "Marco Polo Policy" has also been established. Under this students will experience a senseof adventure in trying to find continually shifting classes. Sources recently revealed the supreme shift willl occur on Halloween with all classes being moved to a yet unnamed island in Puget Sound. Argumentsagainst this policy have been heard, but it is pointed out if Nixon's shift from the White House toCalifornia was good for the country maybe student shifting would also be beneficial. These new campusprograms indeed are complex, but have been undertaken only after considering the benefits which thestudents of Western will derive from them. The creator of both policies, who wishes to remainanonymous, stated: "In past work with both rats and monkeys using similar policies, good results werebeing achieved in social adaptability before the rats destroyed each other and the monkeys wentbananas." â€” Jeff Bettinson Editor, Western Front: I just finished reading the account of an abortionpublished in the Oct. 15 Western Front and am so upset I just have to say something. To anyonereading this article, an abortion would seem like a sickening, painful experience when actually it isnothing of the sort. I also had an abortion, but it was a much different experience. My abortion wasperformed in a Bellevue clinic for a relatively low price. There were plenty of helpful, pretty young women to assist the patients and assure them the process was a simple one. In fact, abortions seldom takelonger than 10 minutes The "scraping" the author described was non-existent. A device was introducedinto the uterus to stretch it out to enable the suction apparatus to enter. The local anesthetic felt likenothing more than a bee sting. I didn't "feel" the suction more than a remote sensation, although I didhear it. As easy as that, the abortion was over. My abortion was arranged over the phone. The person on the other end of the line gave me explicit directions as to the pre-operative preparations as well asthose things I'd need following the procedure (yes, even down to the kotex). You see, an abortion doesnot have to be scary, dirty or painful. Ninety per cent of the whole trip depends on your mental attitude.Abortion does not have to be a " painful trauma," something to tuck away into your subconscious.Rather, it is an assertion of your right to control your own life, an ultimate expression of your freedom ofchoice. Debbie Lowery Senior, English Correction in salary figures Editor, Western Front: I wish tocorrect an erroneous statement attributed to me in the article "Teacher salary buying power ... ." in theOct. 8 edition of the Front. It is asserted that I said an average associate professor's salary rose from$14,473 in 1970-71 to $16,532 in 1973-74. These figures are for total compensation, not salary, whichincludes mandatory fringe benefits, e.g. TIAA and OASI contributions paid by the college. : Thecomparable salary figures are at least 12 per cenl less, and that is still about 25 per cent more than heactually takes home to pay the rent, groceries, etc. The same argument, of course, goes for the figuresfor the professor bracket, though here the article correctly stated that the figures were totalcompensation. While for the comparison over time, which is what my data were for initially, thedifference between the two concepts is unimportant, but it obviously makes considerable difference inthe absolute numbers.

Vassar Clements, one of Nashville's finest violin players (that's fiddler to you bluegrass folks), will join guitarist Norman Blake and dobro king Josh Graves as part of the Tennessee Super Sessiontomorrow at 8 p.m. Although Clements began knocking around Nashville in 1949 and still is one of themost sought-after sidemen there, Clements pulls some fine blues notes and jazz from his violin (okay,fiddle) as well. His a d a p t a b i l i t y ranges from poignant country ballads to the progressive rock ofthe Airman Brothers and the Grateful Dead. "I've always said a fiddle would fit any kind of music,"Clements has said. To prove it, he has toured with the Earl Scruggs Revue and, most recently, with theGrateful Dead. I n ad d i t i o n , he has performed and recorded with b l u e s - j a z z artist Merle;Saunders and with John Hartford, the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and Jerry Garcia. Clements may use themembers of the Grateful Dead on his projected first solo album. For those who think they don't knowwhat a dobro is, chances are they really do, but don't know what it is called. A dobro is a guitar with ametal VU gallery to feature quilt exhibit Ten American .museums this past year have featured quiltexhibits, and beginning Monday for two weeks, the Viking Union gallery will have one, too. Ken Shores,well-known sculptural ceramist, and head of the art department at Lewis and Clark College, collectsquilts. Owning over 200 quilts, he has agreed . to lend to the gallery 20 "which best represent the largevariety and i n t e r e s t i n g patterns," of American quilts, according to Fred Birchman, gallery director. Ranging from heirlooms dating back to 1840 to more contemporary stitchery, this fascinating exhibitshows bits and pieces of American history. It should appeal to more than just blanket buffs. Who is this man? soundbox to amplify it acoustically. The result is a twangy, fuzz tone. The dobro has long beenused by oldtime blues singers as well as in country music. Dobro is played by such people as BonnieRaitt, Taj Mahal and Ry Cooder, to name a few. Josh Graves is considered one of the two or three best dobro players around, and is the man most responsible for popularizing the instrument. Graves beganplaying with Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs in 1955, and has played with both, especially Scruggs, since then. Norman Blake, the" other featured performer of the Super Session, one of the best guitar pickersin the country, has done back-up work with Kris Kristofferson, Bob Dylan, Joan Baez and John Hartford.He has also worked with Doc Watson, June Carter and Johnny Cash. "I haven't sat up a thousandnights burning the midnight oil to figure out a bunch of peachy-keen arrangements," Blake has said. "Ijust play the music I feel. like playing when I'm up on stage, and what I want to hear." . That sums up alot of what the concert tomorrow night will be like. Clements, Graves and Blake will all do some solowork to show what they can do by themselves before they team up to play the music they "like playing"together. The evening's entertainment promises to be pretty spontaneous, straight from the shoulder and from the heart. The concert may prove to be one of the high points of the quarter, if not the year. At $4a ticket, it's a bargain. Tickets for the Tennessee Super Session are available at the Viking Unioninformation desk, Puget Sound Records, the F a i r h a v e n Tavern and Bellingham Sound Center.Remaining tickets will be on sale at the Music Auditorium box office after 6 p.m. the evening of theconcert.

The voice of Western. KUGS-FM is Western's student-funded,student-operated radio station. It is a non-commercial radio station serving the Western community andbroadcasting throughout Whatcom County. The programming day for KUGS begins each morning at 11.A door is unlocked, lights are turned on, program material is selected while routine checks are run onequipment. When everything is in its proper place, the big switch is thrown. The studio is on the firstfloor of the Ridgeway Dining Hall, in an office that was storage area for the dining hall. The walls of theoffice are painted white with vivid, exuberant floor to ceiling stripes of red, yellow and blue. The unusualpaint job seems to symbolize the station's carefree atmosphere.- The colors say, more simply, welcome. A staff of some 40 students run the station headed by station manager Mike Breda. Breda is thecaretaker of The Voice. He seems unwilling to assume a command attitude. He runs the stationtechnically and carefully, but with a casual format that invites participation. Students routinely wanderinto the station's office to investigate the energy it generates. "Ah . . . can I make a record request?" or"What do you have to do to be a disc jockey here?" and, more often than not, "What's going on in here?" Those who stay long enough to get the feel of the studio find that they are welcome. Participation isinvited. Unlike most radio stations KUGS offers its listeners a variety of music and programmed material. Jazz, rock, rhythm 'n blues, classical and more. Programming also includes announcements of eventson campus and in the Bellingham area of interest to Western students. The KUGS news format is alsosomewhat unique. Pete Murphy, the station's news director, directs his news team to seek out theoptimistic, the amusing, the encouraging side of the news. Bad weather reports, accident fatalities,political hot air and other news items which Murphy labels "depressing" are deleted. That sort of news,Murphy believes, can be obtained from other sources.

I'm attempting to prepare people for the shock," AS ProgramCommissioner, Nils Von Veh, said.. As program commissioner, Von Veh is responsible for speakers and much of the entertainment available ;on campus, including concerts, dances, gallejiy displays and twofilm series. 3 Von Veh sees his job from several perspectives, including a concept of "entertainment and enlightenment at the same time." This is particularly important, he said, in .today's uncertain world. Von Veh shares the feeling many people have today that the world is entering a crisis period in whichoverpopulation, lack of resources and severe political and economic stress will shadow the world. He said he wants people to be aware and ready for inevitable lifestyle changes. "My awakening came largelythrough drugs, movies and concerts," Von Veh said. He maintains that entertainment can be a validlearning experience, whether it be through speakers, film or music. Von Veh is a tall, lanky blond now inhis second year as program commissioner. His responsibilities often mean 10-hour days, workingfeverishly with booking agents, campus organizers and a large group of people who work with him."People don't realize there's a depression coming. Nobody wants to wake up." He sees part of his job ashelping educate people to the realities around them. Many of his presentations last year were dedicatedto this same premise, such as the appearance of Stewart Brand, editor of the Whole Earth Catalogduring Earth Week last fall quarter. "That should have been as well attended as Buckminster Fuller'sappearance the year before," he said. Fuller had filled Carver Gym with intent listeners. Brand didn't fillthe -Viking Union lounge. Von Veh also looks at his work this year another way. "My work this year is a gift to the students. It's my last year at Western, and I want to leave something that was fun andexciting, and that will be remembered for its information content as well as its entertainment value."Programming entertainment for the thousands of individuals on campus is a complex task, and Von Vehtries to balance the subtleties of Bellingham and campus life, the diverse needs of the campuscommunity and his own philosophy of enlightenment with entertainment. He tries to do so withoutappealing to the lowest common denominator. "That's something I refuse to do," Von Veh emphasized."I believe you can satisfy people without appealing to the lowest demoninator I do the most sophisticatedthing I can, and work on people's subconscious. So, you see there's order beneath the chaos," helaughed. Many factors help determine the events Von Veh designs for a quarter's entertainment: thepolitical and economic climate, the experience and background of students, psychological factors andeven the inclement Bellingham winter weather.

The themes aregeneral, because series built around one star or director would neglect the needs of a large number ofpeople. Instead, "themes are built around topics. The fall art films are built on a theme, of alternaterealities, especially science fiction, and is titled "Other Spaces, Other Places." Psychologicalconsiderations come into play in choosing topics. Since Bellingham winters are so drab, people areinside a lot, and the general mood is "heavy," the winter art films will be comedies, and will cover a widespectrum of that genre. The Sunday night film series is an effort to bring the best of recent films, withoutshowing films shown on TV. "I choose between big box office successes and the best recent, but not so successful films," he explained. We plan four blockbusters for winter quarter, and four good films whichwere successful in metropolitan areas but which didn't make it to second-run theaters in smaller towns."Von Veh doesn't do all the choosing himself, though he makes the final decision. He canvasses opinionsfrom friends and interested individuals for ideas, gradually building up a quarter's list of films, speakersand concert entertainment. Von Veh's success as program commissioner last year was phenomenal,and he credits that success to the large number of people who function in the generally well-oiledprogram commission machine, from graphic artists to stage hands. "So many people give me support,"he concluded. "People don't realize how complex staging even a single event is. Without that help, mywork would be impossible." * AS films warming for chilly autumn oner, is reflected :key.

Next Sunday, Oct. 27, "Fists of Fury" will beflying as Bruce Lee battles sinister underworld characters. Using the ancient art of Kung Fu in place ofmeaningful dialogue, he and his cronies punch, jab and kick their way across the screen. As Nils VonVeh, program commissioner, said, Lee's films have "no plot but they're fun to watch." On Halloween,Thursday night, "Viva La Muerte" (Long Live Death) will be shown. The film deals with the wierdexperiences of a young boy in adolescence. Whether the audience can relate to them or not is Photoshow spans years A retrospective exhibition of photography by Charles M. Rice, Emeritus Faculty,Western, is on display at the Whatcom Museum of History and Art through Nov. 24. The display, whichspans 50 years of photography, has 50 salon prints on exhibit.

"Viva La M u e r t e " is directed by Fernando Arrobal, known for his erotic and strange films.Sunday, Nov. 3, "The Go-Between," grand prize winner at the 1971 Cannes Film Festival will be shown.Seen through the eyes of a 12-year-old boy who acts as message-carrier between a beautiful heiressand a tenant farmer, it is both tender and-sensitive. 'Nun' attacks convent fife Jacques Rivette's film "The Nun," based on Diderot's famous novel of convent life, will be shown Oct. 23 at 6:30 and 9:00 p.m. inthe Fairhaven Auditorium. Filmed in 1965, "The Nun" was praised by the French cinema industry, butbanned by the French government as an attack against the church. The film concentrates on theharrowing experiences of Suzanne Simonin, a beautiful young woman who is forced to enter a conventby her parents, and on the two convents in which she lives. The first convent is frighteningly like aprison. The life is unbearably rigorous, often with cruel punishment. Suzanne is befriended by theMother Superior, but the woman soon dies, and the replacement is terrifying. Suzanne is soontransferred to a totally different type of convent, but with equally terrible problems. Rivette is concernednot only with an indictment of church institutions, but with the concept of freedom for women. Theconvents are symbolic of any institution and of repression of individual expression. Filmed in England,and\ starring Julie Christie and Alan Bates, "The Go-Between" is worth every dime.

Weston photo display at UW by WARREN PALKEN If you are in Seattle before Sunday, take time to visit a photography exhibit of the late Edward Westonnow on display at the University of Washington's Henry Gallery. Weston, who died in 1958 at the age of.38, was a noted California photographer who did most of his work on the Monterey Peninsula. He ismost remembered for- his close-up work with organic forms. His show at the Henry Gallery reflects thatstyle. From approximately 100 black' and white photographies-mostly 8 x 10-perhaps the mostinteresting are Weston's green pepper photos. The green pepper by taste alone is an oddity: neithersweet nor bitter. Weston portrays the visual side of this vegetable in all its odd glory. The eight glossy,,waxy green peppers Weston picked lose nothing and gain everything in the heavy contrasts of black andwhite. Green peppers in roller coaster shapes deeply curl - arching and curving within an area the size ofyour palm. Even the black and white photograph cannot stop the green peppers demand for green-ness.Green shape pours from the picture, disregarding the simple two-dimensional black and white restrictionimposed by his approach. Weston's nudes also, deserve mention because they are popular - notbecause they are any better than his other shots but sentiment (or frankly, in my opinion, a love oftitilation) warrants their mention. Posed on sandy beaches, his nudes hang in space, seemingly buoyedby cloud-like sands Several are in grotesque positions, arms and legs twisted like baby dolls. Bycontorting and fragmenting the body. Weston adds a clay quality to each body - a quality best described, perhaps, by a sculptor. During a journey to Mexico in 1924, Weston took photographs of various peopleand places. One in particular catches the eye and holds it. Manuel Hernandex Galvan; a profile of thepure spirit Mexico radiates. The south is projected through this man's likeness so realistically, sodistinctly, the Spanish image cannot be forgotten. Weston's work is of interest in one respect: technically he worked directly from camera to plate. In other words, no modern developing techniques were used tomake a good picture from a bad. It was less science and more personal craftsmanship in Weston'smethod. r LIVE ENTERTAINMENT 8:30 - 1:30 MONDAY - SATURDAY "DELIVERY SAN FRANCISCOGROUP - SIX PIECE LOUNGE GROUP COMING DIRECTLY FROM PIER 70 IN SEATTLE 9J *DONTFORGET T.GIF.

Flora. "The doomsayers were wrong," he said in an interview Tuesday. F l o r a a t t r i b u t e d the unexpected rise in enrollment to "creative and imaginative" programs that have beenmaintained at Western despite crippling budget cuts. The new enrollment figures will undoubtedly havesome e f f e c t on the college administration's $45,396,399 budget which the Board of Trusteesapproved for the 1975-77 biennium, he said. Just what effects the enrollment figures will have on thebudget is unclear, but if the present enrollment average is' maintained for the 1974-75 school year, thereshould be more money for Western, Flora said. It is now up to the governor's office to recommend anychanges in the budget based on new enrollment figures before he submits the plan to the statelegislature in January, Flora added. Some effects of the enrollment increase should be felt immediately,however, in the form of increased local revenue (student tuition and fees). Flora praised faculty,administrators and students for the extra time and effort spent to maintain innovative programs despitefaculty reductions and budget cuts. He cautioned the campus community against over optimism,however, citing the nation's declining birth rate which he said could mean a f o r m i d a b l e decline inenrollment by 1980. "We ought to plan now for such an enrollment decline so we're not surprised when it occurs," he said. Gays want to end myths "The main point we want to get across is that we care andthat we really want to help," Rebecca Valrejean of the Gay Peoples Alliance (GPA), said. Besides trying to break down stereotypes and myths associated with homosexuality, the GPA is planning a programthis year to deal with all aspects of sexuality. Although mainly concerned with meeting the needs ofgays, they offer conseling to anyone witn a sexual problem. "We want people to know what being gay is all about," Rebecca said. The program will include rap sessions, guest speakers and social activities.The GPA office serves as an information and resource center for the campus. "We are not out to recruithomosexuals, this is not our purpose," Rebecca stresses. Stressing counseling and "mutual support"Valrejean said the GPA is interested in helping all students with a sexual identity problem. SLOW gets$2,000 budget A $2,000 annual budget for the Associated Students newsletter SLOW (StudentLowdown On Western) has been approved by the AS Board of Directors. SLOW spokesman, Jack Fulk, said the two-pager is intended to be "a basic information sheet to inform students of AssociatedStudents e v e n t s , to fill the communication gap between s t u d e n t s and Associated Studentsactivities." Stating that the Western Front's coverage of Associated Students events other than studentgovernment is limited, Fulk said there is a definite need for this type of news source on campus. Aftergoing through the Western Front's 1974 spring quarter issues, he noted that some organizations werementioned only once. "They must have done something else during the quarter, but the Front didn treport i t " he said. **Fulk stressed that SLOW is not a full newspaper, but a two-page AssociatedStudents information sheet. "There's such a drastic difference between the Front and SLOW, theamount of overkp will be small," he said. JEOPARDV EDITOR (a.) Wanted (b.)

The Legal Aids office, Viking Union 214 A, is equipped and willing to assist students hanging inlegal limbo for free. When a student comes in for help, Legal Aids works with the person throughout thecase or hassle, counseling and referring. They may refer people to lawyers or inexpensive, specializedagencies. The office has access to the Revised Code of Washington and various other legal materials,and may inform you of rights you. didn't know you had. The office is staffed with coordinator LesleySullivan-, and five volunteers. They aren't attorneys, nor do they pretend to be legal experts. The purpose of the office is to be a referral service, although research is sometimes undertaken. Attorney Treb Scottis available for reference and advice. His salary is paid . by Associated Students, as is the coordinator's.According to Sullivan, he helps in solving cases and "points them in the right direction." "We are here todo what we can whether that entails referring people to agencies, attorneys, helping them fill out legalforms or giving personal advice," Sullivan said. The bulletin board in the office is posted with numerousnotices concerning legal dilemmas such as drug arrest abroad and at home, landlord-tenant guides, listsof Bellingham attorneys who will check papers and give legal advice pertaining to dissolution of marriages ($10 fee), a list of members of the Bellingham divorce co-op, and the phone number of the WashingtonState Human Rights Commission. The office furnishes free renters'guides'" and a bus manual is in themaking now which will cover the legal aspects of such things as dog catching, dope, and small claimscourt. The budget of Legal Aids suffered a $100 cut this year, leaving its academic year budget at$1,895. Fifty dollars was cut from the motor pool and $50 from printing but the loss hasn't handicappedthem, Sullivan said. She estimated the number of students coming through the office as roughly 20 to 25a week. "It's hard to say now as the quarter has just begun, we could handle more than this amount.*' Adivorce manual is being revised and the legal forms will be available in about two weeks. Sullivanestimates students can save $250 to $200 by going through the legal aids office, if the divorce is anuncomplicated one. They help people fill out the oftentimes confusing legal forms for no-fault divorces.Divorce is still a complicated process, and if there are children and/or debts Legal Aids may refer peopleto an attorney, Sullivan said.

Eastern has had its wings clipped 56-18 by Portland State, 32-14 by Whitworth, 27-6 by Oregon College and 28-7 by Oregon Tech. They're also ranked last in both total defense and total offense in the Evergreen conference. "They're the worst team in the league by far," Vik wide receiver Don Renner said encouraging, "They've got the worst talent." Still Renner predicted a moderate scoring affair but hintedat a possible shutout for "the Viking defense. The national experts have picked the Viks to win 14-13.But even the Eagles haven't gone nine games without a win and after watching Western give away lastweek's game to Central, a tossup might be the safest forecast. As a team, the Eagles have, of course,not fared so well but a number of individuals have put their talents on display. Defensive end Doug Orcutt and defensive halfback Mike Richter, all-conference picks last year, are the only shining lights on theporous Eagle stop unit. Richter leads the league in interceptions with four. Wide receiver Steve Lamb isamong the league leaders with 19 catches while punter Barry Sarts has the best Evco average at 38.5 akick.

"Theteam learned from the experience this weekend and we are just going to keep getting better and better." Goodrich was impressed with the team's hitting and depth from the bench. "We are still finding kinks in our offense," she said. Those flaws will be ironed out before Saturday. Eight teams will compete at â€¢the University of Washington *â€¢ tournament with the squads divided into two groups for round-robinplay. The top two teams of each group will play for first-place honors. Western will face WashingtonState University, Central, and Portland State University in hopes of making the finals. "WSU will be ourtoughest competition," Goodrich said, "they were the only team we dropped two games to atEllensburg." Portland State will be tough also. "Portland State has been a perennial power and hasbeen t h e regional champ or runner-up for as long as I can remember," Goodrich said.

Mind you, he's not just going around the block either but headed for somewhere between 17 and 21 miles ofrunning for the day. Part of his mileage is also done in the afternoon after he's finished with the "easy"task of going to college for the day. It looks as if there is only one reason for such individuals to take onthe gut-busting sport of cross country . . . it's dedication, with a capital "D." Western coach Ralph'Vernacchia has such a group-of these dedicated "soles" and their next competition comes tomorrow inthe Fort Casey Invitational meet on Whidbey Island. Star runner and record setter Steve Menard is a"doubtful" but "hopeful" performer this weekend according to Vernacchia. Menard strained someligaments in his right knee and missed the Pacific Lutheran University Invitational meet last week. Evenif Menard would have run last week Vernacchia thinks the University of Puget Sound still would havefinished at the top, as they did, but Western would have finished a notch higher than their third placeshowing. Menard has the type of injury that has to be nursed along"very carefully" thus causing somedoubt about whether or not he will run this week. The Fort Casey Invitational is an AAU sanctioned meet and h a s i n v i t e d some highly-regarded competition, besides the Vikings. Club Northwest and theUniversity of Washington will race but Vernacchia is still maintaining confidence in his troups.

"We ran real close, but we didn't have anyone up front forany real scoring punch," Vernacchia said. The coach said the team probably could have taken the meet if Menard had been competing.

Peace Campaign. "Although the accord was signed almost two years ago, the United States continues to subsidize 80 per cent of the Thieu government's budget, includingthe military supplies needed to continue their aggression against the Vietnamese people," Hayden said.Hayden, a founder of Students for a Democratic Society and leading radical of the '60s, appeared withactress-wife Fonda, and Harris at a program sponsored by the local chapter of Vietnam Veterans Against the War/Winter Soldier Organization (VVAW/WSO). The program is part of a nation-wide tour to bringpublic attention to the continuation of the Vietnam war. Earlier Saturday, the three met with U.S. andCanadian anti-war activists, Vietnam veterans and draft resisters in Peace Arch Park at the Blaine border crossing. They called for a boycott of Ford's amnesty program until all U.S. involvement in Indochinaends and a universal and unconditional amnesty is reached. Hayden called for an Indochina Peacepledge to be adopted by elected officials. The three-part pledge includes prohibiting direct American reintervention in Indochina, abiding by the political provisions of the peace agreement and stopping allnonhumanitarian aid to Thieu and Cambodian President Lon Nol. "I'm talking about funds from such U.S.programs as Food for Peace to construct tiger cages for political prisoners," Hayden said.. About 500persons attended the evening program which included a film made by Fonda and Hayden during a 1972visit to North and South Vietnam.

Mark Dodson, 19, and two of his friends, Carrell McCarthy and Steve Page barely made it to the5 p.m. deadline of the Eberhard Faber National Art Scholarship Contest, held eligible to all Western artstudents, after learning three hours earlier that they were the only contestants. Gene Vike of the artdepartment said the poor turnout might invalidate the contest and the amateurish quality of the artists'work might disqualify the entries. Lack of student involvement in the contest was caused by the refusalof both students and faculty to support it, Vike said. "The unfortunate part of it (the contest) is that itcomes off as a commercial venture," Vike said. "Students look upon art as a more significant mediathan that." He said a company representative originally approached the art department to drum up apromotion for the company's Design Art line of felt-tipped pens. The rules in the contest stipulated allentries utilize at least four of the Design Art markers. After learning he was the only entry, Dodsonasked to speak to one of the faculty in the department and persuaded him to let him come down andpresent his work. Then, he mentioned the contest to his two friends, who drew up their own entries.McCarthy "took a couple of knives on her painting," Dodson said. Page, the third prize winner, spentabout five minutes squiggling out his entry, a wavy collage of Eberhard Faber colors. The three presented their exhibits to Vike, who later criticized their quality. "The way they were, I didn't really want to showthem to anybody," he said. "So I asked them to put on new borders and bring them back Monday."Student acccess to records eased After today Western's students will be able to see that little folder oftheir vital statistics, and they can rest assured every Tom, Dick and Harry won't be thumbing throughtheir life history. The Famuly Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 will go into effect today.Under the act, no institution of higher learning will be granted federal monies if it has a policy whichdenies or prevents students from inspecting all material that has been placed in their cumulative record.Open to students inspection will be such things as attendance records, scores on aptitude,standardized, and psychological tests, health data, family background information, teacher andcounselor evaluations, and results of mental and psychiatric evaluations. Also, outside access to thisinformation will become more tightly controlled by the students under the new law. Current Westernpolicy allows for the release of student names, phone numbers, GPAs, majors and class scheduleswithout a students consent. After today, anyone, including parents of students over 18, who desire to see a student's record will have to have a signed release from the student whose file is being requested. Aprovision is also incorporated into the law which will allow students to challenge any material in theirrecords they consider to be false, or irrelevant., Students will also be allowed to request information beadded to their files. The Department of Health, Education and Welfare will handle student complaintsand requests. Dean of Students C.W. "Bill" McDonald said the new law will cause no problems atWestern. "We are very careful about what we release concerning a student's records," McDonaldexplained. "There will be no major change in our policy." inside.... ^ Huxley to help plan city's futureFaculty and students of Huxley College are serving in a program to assist the Bellingham city government in planning the cities future.

Visiting hypnotist mezmerizes Western Ron Roe, who says he "is not ahypnotist," recently demonstrated his craft, explaining that all hypnosis is self-hypnosis, its successdepending on the participant. He ended his presentation by hypnotizing the entire audience. See P9-2. V J ---------- Western Front - 1974 November 19 - Page 2 ---------- 2 Western Front Tuesday, Nov. 19, 1974 Demonstration found hypnotic by BRUCE HAYES Withoutusing whirling disks or enticing fingers, Ron Roe hypnotized an almost full Miller Hall auditorium Friday.Roe, who says he is "not a hypnotist," demonstrated the craft he uses to aid people in, among otherthings, quitting smoking and controlling their eating habits. He utilized the same techniques he employsin his classes. In order to achieve the hypnotic state, total relaxation is necessary. Studentsparticipating were instructed to concentrate on relaxing various parts of their bodies, beginning with thescalp and continuing down to the toes. All the time, Roe's voice described a warm feeling the relaxationshould bring, caused by the students' concentration. To demonstrate the power of suggestion, Roetouched several students on the forehead while they were hypnotized. Before bringing them out he saidthey would be unable to open their eyes until he said so. After awakening, they appeared unable to doso until Roe instructed them to. The entire process, from the first relaxation to the final awakening, tookabout an hour. "All hypnosis is self-hypnosis," Roe said. "It is based on your expectations. A stagehypnotist comes across as pretty dynamic, but all the participants are volunteers. The only reason hecan hypnotize them is because they think he can." Hypnosis, he said, happens during a state thateverybody goes through when they fall asleep. As sleep comes, a person's brain waves move at everslowing rates, through the beta, delta and alpha stages. One remains at the bottom state for about halfan hour, then gradually returns to the waking state. Â« When brain waves reach the alpha state, Roesaid, hypnosis can happen. "A person is most open for suggestion and learning," he said. "All I'mteaching people is how to get to this state and how to hold it." "While you are in that state you are totally and completely aware. You hear everything, you have all five senses. It is not unconsciousness, it is analtered state of consciousness." Roe described hypnosis as "the direction of energy units into a funnel."He said concentration, usually on the hypnotist's voice, is used to reach the goal a person wants toreach. "The mind responds to what you want it to." It is not a complicated thing, he said. "The mind isdeceptively simple. It is very straightforward. All the experiences you've had are in there." "Yoursubconscious mind is the best friend you've got," Roe said. "That's where your power SELF-HYPNOSIS - According to Ron Roe, all hypnosis is self-hypnosis.

The move wasnecessitated when it was found neither Larkin or Wright are taking the minimum number of creditsrequired to hold an AS office. ' The board also proposed a subcommittee be formed ' to study andevaluate college policy CHRIS WRIGHT which says AS officials must take a minimum of 12 credits tohold office. The recommendations concerning Wright and Larkin will be sent to Dean of Students C.W."Bill" McDonald for evaluation. Although McDonald has sent letters to both Larkin and Wright statingthey are ineligible for office, McDonald wouldn't .comment, on what, his final decision might be. RayBanks, the Board of Directors member who proposed the motion that Larkin and Wright be removed from office, said since Scott Cairns was recently fired from his post as AS Secretary-Treasurer for breaking_AS rules, Larkin and Wright should also be removed. Kay Burke, Viking Union director, said theminimum credit rule "comes from a long time back" and is no longer workable because of changes inthe college over the past few years. "It raises as many questions as it answers," Burke added. In opencriticism of the minimum credit ruling, Burke called it, "a vestige of time past that should be dealt with."Student Caucus Chairman Steve Barrett questioned the ruling of the board. The board's request for thewaivers assumes that Wright and Larkin will increase their credit loads next quarter, which gives themanother chance, Barrett said. "Cairns was not given the consideration of a second chance for a rule thatnever existed," Barrett continued. HUGH LARKIN Fairhaven dean resigns post to teach Fairhaven DeanKenneth Freeman has resigned, effective some time next year, to teach religion and philosophy atFairhaven. The details of his resignation and of how he will be replaced are yet to be decided byFairhaven College faculty, staff and students. Campus pub possible, but no one's acting Why doesn'tWestern have a campus pub? It may be because no one has been willing to expend the energynecessary to get one, according to Pete Coy, director of housing. "Three years ago a proposal for acampus pub was approved by the Board of Trustees," Coy said. "But liquor laws at that time made itimpossible." Since then the State Liquor Board has reversed their 1895 decision outlawing the sale ofliquor on college campuses. The University of Washington has a pub, as does Central Washington State College. Coy explained that a new proposal would have to be submitted because things have changedsince the last one was approved. Asked who could submit the necessary proposal to the board, Coyreplied, "Anyone could do it. The custodians could do it, if they wanted to. Or the students could do itand probably get some support from the faculty." "I would like to be able to turn to beer in the cafeteria," Coy continued. "It's a lot cheaper than milk or Pepsi." "About all that can be said so far," facultymember Michael J. Burnett said, "is that the Fairhaven community is working out the details."FTeeman, who notified Fairhaven faculty of his decision by memo on Wednesday, was unavailable forcomment this weekend. He met with Fairhaven faculty on Friday afternoon to discuss the method forchoosing his replacement. The new dean, chosen from outside or inside of the college by faculty, staffand students, may share his or her appointment with other Fairhaven faculty members. Fairhavenfaculty contacted this weekend were not surprised at Freeman's decision. "He had talked aboutresigning to teach for a long time," said Burnett. "Ken Freeman," faculty ' member William J. Clevidence said, "isn't the kind of person who's happy being just an administrator." ---------- Western Front - 1974 November 19 - Page 3 ---------- Tuesday, Nov: 19, 1974 Western Front 3 Huxley helps city's planning by RON ZOBEL Huxley facultyand students are serving in a program to assist the Bellingham City Council and the city's Planning andDevelopment Commission to plan for the city's future.

"We've had many famous writers' work in 'Jeopardy,' but few students have taken advantage of the publication," Pegeen White, new editor of"Jeopardy," said. "It's an excellent magazine and I will try my hardest to get more Western studentsinvolved." White, a junior majoring in English, said writing for "Jeopardy" is "a good step for a student totake. It's read by well known writers." To a r o u s e student participation, awards will be given tostudents who submit the best poetry and short stories. First prize will be $75 and second place will be$25 for both the best poetry and the best short stories. The work submitted will be judged by knownwriters from the Pacific Northwest. White also expressed a need for an artist to do a series of picturesfor this year's publication, which will be available early spring quarter.

"We want a pub!' Obviously, most students on thiscampus like to drink. If you don't believe that, try wandering around any dorm on any given night. What Iwould like to know, is why isn't there a pub on campus. In past years, state law prevented such adecadent and corrupting thing. However, the law was changed this summer and the only thing stoppingthis campus from enjoying the bubbly is lack of concern. Although it's been several months since thelaw was changed, few people on this campus have tried to do a thing about getting a pub. A lot of peoplemoan and bitch about wanting to stay on campus to enjoy a few brews, but so far nobody has taken theinitiative. That is, until today. The logical place for students to look for leadership might be theAssociated Students. The students who did look' to the AS to do something are probably gohig to haveto look elsewhere. The administration sure isn't going to do a thing unless it's obvious that the studentswant it. I'm sure much of the faculty would enjoy the chance to sit down for a few brews too. They alsolike to have banquets and receptions with something stronger than Dr. Pepper. Since waiting for the ASto provide student leadership is like waiting for Mt. Baker to erupt, the Western Front would like to makethe following proposal. Any persons interested in having a pub on campus should come down to theFront office and speak to Dennis Ritchie and O.K. Johnson, the editor and managing editor. Feelingfoolhardy and having compulsions to become lightning rods for flack, the aforementioned messieurswould like to find out how to organize such a project. If people want to see a pub on campus, theyshould be provided with leadership. Until somebody who knows what he's doing can take over organizingthe proposal for a pub, the Front may as well take an active part in providing any leadership it can. tKnowing the college governance system of committees and councils and more committees and morecouncils, it's likely the results may be a long time in coming, but it'd be a constructive step forward if thelong planning process could begin now. -Dennis Ritchie Faulty sidewalks profitable I was walking to myclass in* the Humanities building when I noticed my friend Justus dressed in a black suit and tie, handing out pamphlets. "Justus," I said. "What are you doing?" "I'm working," Justus said, as he shoved apamphlet into a passing student's hand. "You mean you're getting paid to hand those out?" I said,pointing to the papers. "That's right," Justus said. "Who's paying you?" I asked. "I'm working for twoplaces," Justus said, "Happy Day Chapel and the law firm of Seymour and Suemore." "Isn't Happy DayChapel in the funeral business?" I asked. "It sure is," Justus said, "In fact Happy Day Chapel is theMacDonalds of undertaking. Right now they have the fastest growing funeral business in the Northwest."But why do they pay you to stand by the Humanities building and pass out pamphlets?" I asked. "It'sreally quite simple," Justus explained, "Haven't you noticed. The sidewalks around here Saga eaters well-fed are in horrible condition. It's only a matter of time before someone trips and breaks their neck."Yep," Justus added, "Happy Day figures if they advertise now they can bury you later." "And what aboutthis law firm?" I asked, "Why do they pay you?" "That's simple. I stand here and watch people stumbleand fall flat on their faces. Before they can get up I rush over and tell them to contact the law firm ofSeymour and Suemore." "I mean have you ever seen a better example of negligence," Justus added ashe pointed to the sidewalk. "You might be right," I said. "I am right," Justus said. "I better be getting toclass," I said. "And I better get more pamphlets," Justus said. "Then I'll stand in front of the Viking Union for a while. The sidewalks there are starting to get bad and maybe with luck someone will trip into theroad and get hit by a car." â€”Jeff Bettinson Street beat by D. STARBUCK GOODWYN The street isrestless today' The Street is restless today. Suzie the bartender is keeping a weather eye onquarrelsome customers bickering around the bar. Her movements, as she wipes absently at the bar orserves a glass of beer, are distracted. She is more interested in watching the customers-to stop troublebefore it starts. Suzie is a pretty girl, 25, maybe 30, years old and apparently of Indian or Latin blood. Her big black eyes and beautiful olive complexion blend in well at the Ritz bar where the clientele is mostlyIndian and Chicano. Suzie is pretty but she's not soft. She's damned tough. She has to be. "Some daysit's like this," she said matter-of-factly. "Hell, it's not noon yet and I've already had two fights and havethreatened to call the cops a couple more times." I asked her if she had to call the cops often. "Nah,usually I just threaten to. I don't like the bulls in here any more than the customers do. They (the police)don't understand us." Sammy is a little man with very pale skin, a derby hat, a gold tooth and ever-present sun glasses. Sometimes Sammy works behind the bar and sometimes he works on the otherside polishing it with his elbows. Sammy is having problems today. Sammy is arguing with his ladyfriend, a big woman, twice his size, who keeps telling him she's going to take her daughter and go backto the reservation and get the hell away from him and all other mean little men. Sammy cocks his fist tohit her and she very calmly jerks his glasses off, throws them across the room, pulls his derby hat downover his eyes and shoves him off the bar stool. Suzie is around the bar in a heartbeat. Eyes flashing, shetells the lady friend to get the hell out and stay out. A six-foot blond guy attempting to grow a mustacheand wearing the uniform of the street: a pair of dark shades shoved up on his messy blond hair, standsup and tells Suzie to "let the lady alone." Blondie has been trying to make out with a middle-aged Latinwoman who must have been exotically beautiful before time and tide caught up with her. Blondie told thewoman he is a doctorate in philosophy at Western. Maybe he is. I've never seen him on campus, but he's probably never seen me either. Suzie thinks Blondie is a phony and tells him as much, giving him agraphic anatomical description of where he can put his phony doctor's title on his way out the door.Another woman, claiming to be Blondie's wife, berates him from her seat at the bar demanding that hecome home with her. Suddenly everybody in the Ritz is on the street yelling. Allegiances change as fastas the odds on a track tote board. Customers that had engaged in cozy conversations seconds earlier are screaming at each other. Sammy's ladyfriend throws her purse at Suzie and runs for the door but thebooze affects her navigation and she caroms off the corner of the bar, bounces against the door jamb andout through the open door where all 250 pounds land heavily on the sidewalk. Sudden silence in the Ritz.Customers watch impassively as she struggles ponderously to her feet and staggers down the street.Suzie picks up the purse. "Christ, and it's not noon yet. Some days are like this." Editor, Western Front: It is about time someone spoke out about the state of affairs at Saga. It is unnecessary and disgracefulthat students show up day after day, meal after meal at Saga dining halls and be bored by the same old menu. Saga quickly becomes a s c h e d u l e d source of .disenchantment when faced with the sameassortment of beverages, ihe same soups, the same salads, and the same all but too slow lines to beserved. This situation presents an almost insurmountable dilemma, not to the meal planners of Saga,but to the overfed, affluent, and pitiful individuals who face the world food crisis as they treat Saga: Witha silent resignation of indifference. My objection is not that ticket holders should not get their money'sworth by eating less, but that a group of the best fed people anywhere should feel some sense ofthankful resignation to their good fortune. For those who can laugh in the face of world starvation, rorthose who refill their plates with as little introspection as they scratch an itch, these people have notknown hunger, and are' indeed CRIMINAL! David Van Winkle Junior, Fairhaven Student mad aboutcarving Editor, Western Front: I noticed a student and his girlfriend walk up to the wooden sculpture that sits south of the Wilson Library. This student took a knife out of his pocket and carved on this veryinteresting sculpture his initials and his girlfriend's, then he encircled the initials with a heart. Thethought that came to my mind upon viewing this display was: "Am I at college or grade school?" I can'tunderstand how anyone could walk up to a sculpture that obviously is very expensive and proceed todeface it. The only conclusion I could reach was that the student mentioned at best, had the mentalityof a sixth grader. Oh, yes, the initials were "T.L." and "M.O."

First-person account Fonda s the same after 15 years PEACEFUL DEMONSTRATION - Saturday's anti-war demonstration under the Peace Arch in Blaineattracted nearly 200 people -photos by George McQuade Fifteen years telescoped in reverse and I waslooking at the Jane Fonda I had known and liked at the University of Omaha. I was talking to thephotographer and didn't see her get out of the car. When I looked up she was only a few feet away and Isaw the bangs and closed-mouth smile, and for a heart-beat her gaze touched me and she seemed to be giving me a personal greeting. I knew better. It was simply that peculiar kind of charm she was born with or developed early in life. That first look blanked me out. She couldn't have changed so little in so manyyears. I did a fast soul-searching soft-shoe. Did she really look the same or was I deluding myself? Nodammit, Fonda hadn't changed. The times had changed. I had sure as hell changed, but she hadn't. She may just as well have been the brown-haired girl that used to run into the ROTC office-usually a little late but always apologetic-15 years ago to type up a roster, give me a few words of encouragement aboutmy dismal drama efforts or to sit and quietly reflect about her future. She looked like the same Jane, andin the few brief moments in which we had to exchange reminiscences, she was. I was in theCommandant of Cadets office for the school's ROTC program. Her brother, Peter, was doing two years of compulsory ROTC duty, and Jane worked with the Angels, a sort of auxiliary to the corps. The Angelsdid a lot of work in planning social events, typing and keeping the men's spirits up. Over the months, Ideveloped more than a casual acquaintance with the two because I liked the way- they gave that extraeffort, the way; they tried honestly to cope with their problems, before yelling "help," and I sup pose-selfishly-the fact they both gave me help, and one hell of a lot of criticism about my hamboneappearances on the Omaha Little Theater stage. They lived with their grandmother in Omaha. It's beensaid many times before that they felt a certain resentment about being in "cowtown" USA, going to anunknown school, while Father Fonda's name blazed in marquees across the country. During quietmoments in the office they spoke of it. Bitter? Aren't all kids-about something? I suppose they were, butthey seemed to be coming to grips with it. I had a lot of kids with a-Jot of problems. The Fondas seemed to have theirs pretty well under control. As Jane and I stood aside from the crowd and she gave thatpersonal added grip to her handshake, she said, "Starbuck, we've both gone a lot of miles since Omaha.I wish you happiness." I knew she hadn't changed. â€”D. Starbuck Goodwyn PEACE RALLY â€” DavidHarris, Joan Baez's ex-husband, expresses his views in favor of the peace movement and amnesty for allU.S. war resisters.

Negotiations between the three schools and the Department of Social and Health Services was recently completed. The signing of the contractis the only formality left before the program can begin, said J. W. Wilkins, Western's representative to the project. Wilkins said the prisoners will be selected by their ability to succeed in the program rather than by the nature of their crime. "Passion murderers have the best prognosis," he added. A good deal ofcaution will be excercised in the selection procedure, he said. Selection is done at the prisons by acommittee made of administrators and counselors. The three local schools will have no voice in theselection process. "We will be at the mercy of the selection board," Wilkins said. However, he added,the schools do have the right of refusal to any convict. The prisoners will be housed at either Fairhaven or Buchanan Towers. Once housed, they will be strictly supervised by a full-time parole officer employedby the state but paid through the program. Supervision, other than academic, will be the responsibility ofthe state, not the schools. The program will be especially strict in the beginning, but gradually theprisoners will be given " more responsibility for their own actions, Wilkins said. They will have stricthours, room checks three times a day, and a 10 p.m. curfew. These restrictions will be eased as theprisoners prove their responsibility and desire to succeed in the program. Successful participation willnot only give the convicts a skill but will also help them in getting paroled early. There will be six to tenmen in the beginning of the program, Wilkins said. Women are included, and if successful the number of participants will increase, he added. Currently there are 40 or more prisoners attending the University ofWashington, Wilkins said, and they have had great success. Western's program is unique in that itinvolves state as well as local school districts, thus providing a variety of training opportunities.Correction: In the Nov. 8 issue of the Western Front, it was incorrectly stated that a forged signature ona dance band contract forced a temporary freeze of the Gay People Alliance's budget.

" \ Computer catches cold "Ah choo, ah choo ... excuse me, I've caught a cold from one of the computers at the computer center." During the break between fall and winter quarters last year, the college cut back on heating to save electricity during the energy shortage, and an IBM 7090 caught a"cold" according to Melvin Davidson, director of Western's computer center in Bond Hall. The change intemperature was more than the computer could take, and it refused to operate. Some of the computer'sparts had to be replaced. Another IBM computer caught "the bug" during the last few weeks of thisquarter and started feeding out strange pieces of information, Davidson said. Fortunately, the computercenter thinks it has found the solution to the computer's problems. The Ampex Memory was probablyplugged into a noisy power line and picked up bad information from it, in computer operators jargon. The computer center recently received some new computer terminal devices which are designed tocommunicate with other computers over telephone lines. Davidson hopes to use a RS 232 amplifierwhich can send messages a few thousand feet, t h u s s i m p l i f y i ng communications within shortdistances of the computer center. Olscamp selection pleases faculty L by O.K. JOHNSON Facultyreactions to the selection of Paul J. Oslcamp as Western's next president are favorable. At a time whenthe faculty and administration have- been divided on issues such as Reduction-In-Force (RIF), collectivebargaining and trustworthyl leadership, a sampling of Western faculty members indicate Olscamp coulddevelop into a unifying force between the college administration and faculty. Faculty salaries, enrollmentstability, collective bargaining, development of a competent administrative staff in addition to givingWestern a sense of direction are major items of importance according to Western faculty members.Clyde Senger, chairman of the biology department, said Olscamp was his top choice. "I think Olscampwill be able to unify the college, especially with (Academic Vice President Jerry) Anderson leaving,"Senger said. "I think the faculty will be able to get behind him, so he'll get his chance to unify, but that'sa hard thing with this faculty." Chemistry department chairman Joseph R. Crook said he would likeOlscamp's number one goal to be improving Western's image with both the legislature and with thegovernor's office. "He sure looks like a good one," Crook said. "I just hope we aren't disappointed withhim a year from now." Howard Mitchell, chairman of the economics and business department, said hewould like to see Olscamp's most important goal as "helping the college get a sense of direction andmission." "It's hard to go beyond that," Mitchell said. "What we need is leadership." "Faculty salarieswould be my first choice," Eunice Faber of the foreign language faculty said. "We should be somewherewithin a reasonable pay scale. We're all looking toward cooperation with a new administration. From allappearances, Olscamp would be working toward this goal." Brian Copenhaver of the general studiesfaculty and a member of the 14-member presidential search committee said the question of unity is acomplex situation. "It's like trying to predict the future," Copenhaver said. "There are certain curricularadministrative jobs that need to be done, and Olscamp can see to it they are done." "The most important overall question Olscamp should be concerned with is trying to give the college a clear notion of whatWestern is for," Copenhaver added. "He can help us all get a clear idea of what Western ought to be."Olscamp, who will assume presidential duties July 1, 1975, named collective bargaining, honesty withstudents and more openness of faculty and students mutual concerns as his most important goals whenhe spoke on campus last month.

"We were so different, no one knew what to do with us," she complained. Western said the Oct. 31 to Nov. 2 grant directors meeting of 114 pilot education projects was marredby a lack of leadership and sense of direction. "We were thrown in with women's groups, prisons and so forthâ€”and we were lost," she said. However, Western said she learned a lot in her discussion withthe other representatives, who ranged from curriculum planners to prison education instructors. Theconference's main thrust was on program evaluation-how to get the word out for other colleges that would want to start similar projects. But she said the discussion's progress was impeded by the members'internal bickering. ' 'They complained about how bad their programs were g o i n g . After all thatcomplaining, I found out that Western must be the greatest (college) in the world," she said. Westernencountered typical frustration at a long-range funding workshop the last day of the conference. "Theydidn't have a leader and not one person in the room knew a thing. We just sat around for several hours ... drinking cocktails." She said the conference ended abruptly with no resolutions for obtaining grants orwriting program evaluations. Although she said she "came away (from the conference) w i t h a greatdeal of e n c o u r a g e m e n t , " Western maintained she "certainly didn't learn anything about theBridge or getting more money."

Western said she was turning to other possible funding sources, includingPresident Charles J. Flora's proposal to include Bridge Project on the College's 1975-76 budget. Shewas skeptical about H.EtW. refunding the project. " T h e y (the federal government) think we're sosuccessful we won't need the grant next year."

CILAlJfilfilED ---------- Western Front - 1974 November 19 - Page 8 ---------- 8 Western Front Tuesday, Nov. 19, 1974 Critics anger Anderson Vice President for Academic AffairsJerry Anderson responded angrily to criticism from the foreign language department about his decisionfor reallocating funds within that department earlier this month. Anderson ignored a faculty vote to dividethe money equally throughout the department. At his direction, the extra funds will be divided betweenthe French and German programs only. "I gave them four weeks to reach a viable decision which theyseemingly could not do, so I simply proceeded in accordance with the (court) directive," Anderson said.Asked what he planned to do about the dissention in the foreign language department, Anderson said, Idon't plan to do anything." But he added he might sue Eunice Faber, Spanish faculty, for her criticisms of his decision which she called "fascistic and undemocratic" and for referring to him as a "dictator." "Ifshe doesn't stop monkeying around, I'll have no choice but to file a suit of libel," Anderson said. Thecontroversy arose when Peter A. Eddy, French faculty, and Rudolf Weiss, German, decided to takeleaves of absence without pay in the 1974-75 school term. An out of court settlement of a lawsuit filedlast spring against the college by several faculty members contained directives for reallocating extrafunds within departments affected by the current reduction in force. The directives said Anderson shouldmake the decision following full input from the department. "Nowhere was input defined in terms of avote," Anderson said. "The decision I made took into consideration the best interests of both studentsand the department. The German section took over all of Weiss' classes when he left and it is only fairthat they should receive what would have been his salary," Anderson explained. "The rest of thedepartment really has no claim to these funds. Weiss left only after he had been promised this moneywould be split by the German section," Anderson added. Henrich Brockhaus, German faculty, called the faculty decision to divide the money between all the languages a "sad case of rip off," in a letter to thedepartment head. The faculty plan "suggests to relieve us of the Weiss money without taking theworkload," Brockhaus said. Without the extra money, there would be no funding for German classes byspring quarter and students .intending to graduate this year would have had to return next fall to finishtheir sequences, Brockhaus continued, supporting Anderson's decision. i l l from Crown DistributingCo., Inc. 1204 Railroad 734-6605 TICKETS ON SALE NOW FOR WITH SPECIAL GUEST THEMULEDEER AND MOONDOG MEDICINE SHOW FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 22nd 8 pm CARVER GYMALL TICKETS $4.00 Advance tickets: VU Info Desk, Puget Sound Records, The Fairhaven Tavern,Bellingham Sound Center, Music Street in Mt.

At Kodak, we started closeto home. In Rochester, New York. We cut river pollution with one of the most efficient industrial wastewater treatment plants in the country. We cut air pollution with scrubbers, adsorbers and electrostaticprecipitators. We helped set up a black enterprise program in downtown Rochester. Why? Helping tocombat water pollution not only benefits society but us as well as we need clean water to make film.

Stange, a member of a women's divisionteam, the Dirty Dozen, erupted for five touchdowns to lead her team to its fourth straight win and ahumbling of the Alphfl Aphrodisiacs. Stange's scoring outburst included two touchdown sprints, twoscoring pass receptions and a fifth pointmaker on a runback on one of her two pass interceptions.Stange and the Dozen are one of two remaining unbeaten clubs in the women's loop as the regularseason reaches its final stages. The Kappa Krunchers, at 5-0, are the other unscathed unit. by DICKMILNE The unstoppable scoring efforts of Seattle U's Tim Allen helped the Chieftains ease past theWestern soccer team 6-3 in Northwest league boot play last Saturday at Bloedel Donovan Field. Allenscored four goals for the Chiefs and assisted on two others to put the Viks away. Both -teams started offslowly on the chilly afternoon. Allen quickly broke the ice with two breakaway goals by outracing Vikdefenders to the net and slipping shots past a helpless Western goalkeeper, Kevin Regan. DavoodKhoshnood, Western's leading scorer last year, countered for the Vikings with a first-half goal followingsome fine footwork of his own and the score stood 2-1 at the half. Regan made a tremendous stop of anAllen shot to open the second half, but less than a minute later, Allen broke clear once again and fired apass to Dave Hammer.Hammer rammed the ball past the diving Regan to run the score to 3-1. Therelentless Allen got another assist when Dan Van Gebber converted an Allen pass to make the score 4-1 as the rain and the Viks began to fall. Several Western drives into SU territory failed to produce andAllen broke away for yet another SU goal. Henry Sommers finally countered for Western with a secondhalf goal to slice the SU lead. Following another diving stop by Regan, winger Dave Rheinhardt addedanother Viking goal to further close the gap and put Western back in the ball game. The Vikingsimmediately drove' into SU territory again but captain David Hansen narrowly missed the tying goal. Thennemesis Allen scored again on one of his patented breakaways, as the sun came out and time ran out.The loss left Western's record at 2 wins, 4 losses and 2 ties with one league game left to play.

The spirits were high after the game. Coach Boyde Long commented, "It's been close allyear and we finally made it. That last drive of ours was as fine as any I've ever seen here at Western. Itcame at a time when we really needed it." "This last game is a good indication of things to come," Viklinebacker Bob Taylor proclaimed. "This has been a rebuilding year for us and next year will show it."Mike Haerling echoed Taylor's feelings, "Winning the last game is a good start for next year." "I'm sorrywe didn't win more," apologized graduating guard Brett Bennett. Tom Luehmann, also graduating, hadmixed feelings about the last game, "I'm both sorry and glad it's all over." Running back Vanderyachtmaintained, "I've always felt we had a good team. After losing seven games, I wasn't nervous at all aboutwinning." Defender Dave Nedved chimed in, "Next year, we should put it all together and have a fantastic season." The game proved to be a thrilling contest right down to the last second of the game. Westernkicked off to SOC to open the game and got the ball back when Chuck Houser intercepted a pass on theViks' 46-yard line. The Vik'offense then quickly drove in to score, Rick Vanderyacht diving in from the one for a 7-0 advantage.

Dennis Shields ran in from thefour to score for the Red Raiders. Three tough defensive efforts on second half SOC drives keptWestern's hopes alive. The Viks stopped the Raiders with a goal line stand on the one yard line after theRaiders had driven from their own 32. Western took over but had to punt as the fourth quarter began. But the Raiders brought the ball back down to the Vik 23 where Luehmann picked it off in the end zone tostop them again. The Viks got the ball on the 20 but coughed it up when Webber intercepted for SOC.SOC moved the ball to the Vik 22 but lost it on a fumble to Nedved. With 9:30 left in the game, Westernmounted the winning attack, starting from their 16. They drove to the SOC 24 where a key play on thirdand four stood between them and a needed first down. Bill Mendelson walked to the line and startedcalling signals. The senior signal caller then cleverly got the Raiders to jump offside. That gave Western a first down and led to Barney Thompson's game winning romp into the end zone from four yards out. Only 1:56 was left on the clock. . Then came the thrilling finish. SOC tried to move the ball, but Luehmannpicked off his second interception of the night and returned the ball 20 yards with only 52 secondsremaining. The game seemed over as Western had possession of the ball. By putting their time outs togood use, SOC was able to hold the Viks for four downs and get the ball back. With only 20 -seconds left in the game, they threw two screen passes and then hit a receiver down the middle of the field wholooked as though he might go all the way but was caught by a game-saving tackle by Nedved.

Western's football budgethas been insufficient to keep a coaching staff intact over the last few years. Assistant coaches aresimply not paid enough to warrant their stay at Western. Head coach Boyde Long reiterates thatadministrative scheduling of department personnel will not allow him to have a coaches' meeting beforepractices to coordinate drills and coaching assignments. Coaching of the team is seriously retarded,because, as much time has to be devoted to coaching the coaches, as coaching the team. T h e r e are no heavy scholarships to lure prospective athletes to this school. Therefore the responsibility ofmaintaining a decent program falls directly on the attitudes a n d in t e r e s t of the administration, thecoordinated â€¢abilities of the coaching staff, and to a lesser degree, the support of the community andstudent body, if football is to succeed at Western. If a more responsible attitude cannot be -generatedtoward the maintenance of a respectable program, Western football should be aborted in the sameinterests that reflect the abortion of an unwanted child. â€” Keith Olson ITEAR MAIL FREE!

Law fingersshoplifting students Reports increase Robert Neale photo by DENNIS RITCHIE If you're a male, whiteand a student between 18 and 25 years old, it's likely that Bellingham merchants are going to keep aneye on you when you enter a store. The reason is shoplifting. Since 1969, the number of people arrestedand booked for shoplifting in Bellingham has increased by 280 per cent. Of these, 43 per cent have been students. This is three times the percentage of the next largest group (laborers) to be caught. Femalestudents are almost as likely to be arrested for shoplifting as males. Of the students arrested 40 per cent have been female. It's easy to see that the shoplifting problem is getting worse but not so easy todetermine why. According to some officials who deal with shoplifters, it's even harder to see why oneshoplifts at all. Need has been determined to be almost certainly not a reason for shoplifting. Only one or two of those arrested have stated that they needed (Cont. on Pg. 6) Does cof/ege cause theft rate toclimb? by MICHAEL HULL There is bound to be a crime increase in Bellingham when the college is insession, according to Bellingham Police Chief Cecil Klein, but he has no files specifying incidentsparticular to the college.

If there is a. specific crime rise, "Iwouldn't say it's because of the college," Klein added, saying when local public schools are out,shoplifting often rises. The college campus is not "off limits" to Bellingham police officers, but beatpatrols on campus are non-existent. Campus security and Bellingham police work "hand-in-hand," Klein said. Klein said any increase in population often brings trouble, but the increase doesn't always have to hinge on campus population increase. Several assaults on women the past year near and on Western's campus, does not necessarily mean the college generated, the assaults, he said.. by TONY MYERSSen. Warren G.-Magnuson presented an address Saturday at the dedication ceremony for the newWilson Library addition. The dedication was part of Western's Open House. Magnuson was in a jovialmood as he recalled the libraries of his day. "High-ceilinged caves of quiet, enormous empty roomswhere you could sit and hear flies buzz louder than the occasional Model T's outside," he said,"whichcontained musty stacks where the ancient air still smelled of leather bindings because there still werebooks with leather bindings." Sen. Magnuson believes that in "opening a modern American library to itspublic of students or citizens is to open a Pandora's Box. -Hope is here, beauty is here, wisdom is here,but'there are other things. - "Libraries are the one means by which a vivid, different living life may still beavailable to all men; the means to human intelligence imagination, human passion at its highest and most human level,"' Magnuson said. He concluded his address by saying that "you can find yourself in thelibrary." Completion of a $3 million addition to Wilson Library last spring and a $376,000 project to befinished early in 1973, marks the close of a major phase, of development of the Western campus. Theaddition, which more than doubles the size of the existing building, effectively divides the greenery of theoriginal campus in front of Old Ma|n from the new academic heart of the college built as the result of therapid growth in enrollment which occurred in the last half of the '60s. The search for knowledge and theplacement of that knowledge in the hands and minds of scholars was described as the major function ofa college by Western's president Charles Flora. "Wilson Library is the service agency for that function,"he added, "and Western is committed to a first-rate library as the basis for excellence in alldepartments." Flora also said that the library was in full operation while under construction. Someconstruction work will continue inside the building during the coming months, as workers complete thethird and fifth floors.- These areas will contain added space for study rooms, listening, viewing andreading areas, added stack area, periodical rooms' archives and a staff lounge. ' One more addition isplanned for the building in the event enrollment at the college approaches the 15,000 mark. This additionwould constitute the last expansion of Wilson Library; any further space needs would be met throughcreation of branch libraries on other parts of the campus.

To watch oil Pollution coalition arrives Student transitsubsidy still under consideration by BOB SPEED The Coalition Against Oil Pollution has arrived inBellingham. The coalition is a group of individuals and organizations dedicated to the preservation of aclean Puget Sound. The group has purposely avoided being tagged an "environmental group." It is madeup of concerned commercial fishermen, shellfish producers, concerned businesses, citizens andproperty owners. According to Russ West, Bellingham coordinator for the group, it was created "to keepoil activity from seriously damaging the wealth and beauty of the marine environment." The coalitionthinks it expresses interests vital to anyone who lives in the greater Puget Sound area. As the traffic ofoil supertankers increases, so will the risk of oil spills, West said. Supertanker traffic has already begun,with such giants as the 880-foot San Juan Voyager, filled with Middle East crude oil, making regularvisits to local refineries. According to the coalition, one of the most serious dangers lies in the possibilityof collisions in bad weather. Severe weather conditions spread oil slicks faster and hamper cleanupoperations. Industries that depend on clean water, such as fishing and the sports industry, presentlybring in $80 million in local revenues, according to the coalition. Washington is just beginning to realizethe potential of aqua-culture in Puget Sound, and it is estimated that this will grow to a $100 millionindustry within 15 yearsâ€”with clean water. The value of clean water to real estate andaestheticsâ€”important economically to the tourist industryâ€”is beyond estimate. The coalition proposes some solutions to the problem. Studies now under way, that will identify specific problems and proposesolutions, will be finished by 1975. A delay in supertanker traffic in the sound until that time isrecommended by the group. According to the coalition, there are other ways to bring oil into the areas for local refineries which are already operative. The coalition is active in several areas. It acts as aninformation center. Education, organization and mobilization are goals. This has been begun politicallythrough lobbying and election activity. Recently, West said, the group has evaluated candidates for stateoffices. The coalition has officially endorsed Barney Goltz in District 42 for State Representative andDonna Kjargaard in District 40, West said. Trustees close doors for a special meeting by ALICECOLLINGWOOD A special closed-door Board of Trustees meeting has been planned solely fordiscussion of a secret report which details the reasons for the faculty's no-confidence vote againstcollege president Charles J. Flora. The closed-door session, not yet scheduled, is planned for furtherdeliberation of the report, which was discussed behind closed doors for two and one-half hours at theregular board meeting Thursday. Board members heard testimony for an hour and a half from the All-College Senate committee which had prepared the report and then continued discussion amongthemselves for another hour. When the board returned to open session, chairman Harold C. Philbrickread a statement saying the members were "impressed with the efforts of a number of people" and thatthey "intend to give it (the report) prompt and serious consideration" at the special meeting. The boardhad requested the All-College Senate to report the reasons for the faculty expressing a lack of confidence in Flora. Out of 390 faculty members responding to a secret faculty poll May 26, 208 voted noconfidence in the president and 182 voted confidence. The Faculty Council then voted no confidence bya one-vote margin, seven to six, at its June 5 meeting and asked the trustees to request Flora'sresignation. Flora had been attacked by the faculty on several issues, including poor communicationbetween administration and teachers, low morale and high faculty-student ratios. â€¢ â€¢ â€¢ V o t etoday *** Rides will be available all day until 8 p.m. at the Mathes Hall parking lot on campus.

The board asked asst. atty.gen. William Gingery to comment on the legality of the financing of the proposal, which would require anadditional $1.75 fee per quarter be added to tuition. In return for the fee, students would have use of thecity transit system for a quarter. The proposal was submitted by city transit manager Ed Griemsmann.In his comments Gingery suggested that the board consider whether the proposal is essential tofurthering the aims of the college in subsidizing students who wish to ride the buses by involuntarytaxing those who do not.

The SocialSciences building will house the s o c i o l o g y / a n t h r o p o l o g y , political science, geographyand e c o n o m i c s / b u s i n e s s departments. The building will have 84,837 sq. ft. of floor spaceand a cost in excess of $2.5 million. Part of the money for the building is coming from the Department of Health, Education and Welfare. The six-story building is phase I of the structure. A proposed Phase II,which has not been funded yet, would house the English and history departments. Ground was brokenfor the new building last week and dirt from the excavation will be used to fill in low spots along CollegeParkway.

Police shake up snoozers Sleeping in carsand trucks on Bellingham's streets has come under attack by Police Chief Cecil B. Klein. Klein askedthe city council recently to adopt an ordinance prohibiting persons from "living out of their cars." He said the majority of problems arise with transient visitors to the area who sleep in homemade campers ontrucks or in the back seat of cars. The council members transferred the request to the planningcommission for a study of possible alternative action, such as developing a city rest stop for personstraveling through. The rest areas would have restroom facilities and space for overnight parking.Councilmen wondered if the proposed ordinance, if passed in the future, should cover persons juststoping briefly and wanting to sleep overnight in a camper, or students trying to get through collegewithout the housing expense. At present there is not such city law which regulates sleeping on thestreets. City Attorney Richard Busse suggested the college might construct a place near or on campus where students could live in their own camper. ---------- Western Front - 1972 November 7 - Page 3 ---------- Tuesday, November 7, 1972 Western Front May combine Crisis clinic Master's program reviewedCounseling staff needed Several master's degree programs at Western may undergo a consolidation asthe result of a study recently compiled by the departments involved. A review of seven graduateprograms was requested by the state's Council on Higher Education (CHE), and a Graduate Councilreport on the review was presented to the Board of Trustees at its meeting Thursday as an informationalitem. The report, which will be forwarded to CHE, recommends continuing programs for master of arts ineconomics, master of science in physics and master of education in speech. However, the reportrecommends discontinuing master of education programs in physics, physical science, biology,chemistry and earth science, for which a review was not requested. It proposes instead a single programfor master of education in natural sciences. Alan Ross, dean of the graduate school, who presented thereport, said the college has an obligation to provide teachers with the work they need to improve theirinstructional skills. "We think this program can do that," he said. The review was requested by CHEbecause of its concern with master's degree programs which do not have a large number of studentsenrolled. The council wants an evaluation of the productivity of these programs. Ross said the convictionexpressed by several departments is that these graduate programs serve an important function and thatthey should not be totally discontinued. Volunteers for Whatcom Crisis Clinic are being sought. CrisisClinic is a voluntary community service to people with a problem. "It's a place to call when feelinguncertain, hassled or upset," director Bill Elliot said. "There is always an ear." The clinic is an answering service staffed by trained volunteer workers. Before taking over a shift, the volunteers go through abouta month of training. The two-day weekend. volunteers attend a training session on a Then they work a two week period with an experienced volunteer. Next, another training session and back to another twoweek period with an experienced staffer. Others, depending upon their ability, take over a shift.

The instruments belong to Western anthropology professor Tom Johnston, who gathered themduring his two-year stay with the Shangana-Tsonga tribe in Mozambique. He has more than 800recordings of Africans â€¢playing the instruments. These will be available at the push of a button in thegallery. Johnston will occasionally stop by to demonstrate playing the instruments. Johnston becameinterested in African music in 1965, when he was stationed in Nigeria as a Naval Officer. He got out of the service and studied for his master's degree in music, which he received in 1968. The next two years hespent in the African bush studying the social roles of music. Then in 1970-71, he went on a white Africaand European tour with Engelbert Humperdinck, playing lead sax and acting as arranger-director for a 16-piece, back-up group. Johnston plays sax and vibes with Western's ; 20 piece stage band and jams with an informal jazz combo made up of music graduate assistants. Johnston came back to the states in1971 and received a master's degree in anthropology. His PhD thesis-was recently accepted at theUniversity of the Witwatersrand in Johannesberg, South Africa. In researching the Shangana-Tsonga hevisited 12 villages and studied musical customs. One such custom is the reservation of a specialinstrument for a minstrel who travels from village to village singing news. The chief is obligated to. give the minstrel beer, food and his wife in exchange for the news he sings. The chief can never doubt the wordof these "reporters." Johnston has been asked to lecture at the University of Washington on Africanmusic and in the political science, psychology, history, and ethnic studies departments at Western. Heusually chooses to lecture on apartheid, something he violently opposes, and his feelings that "the social sciences without social Western professor Tom Johnston displays an African tribal "tambouring-drum."He spent two years in the African bush studying the social roles of music. Rich Collingwood photocommitment is masturbation." He explained this by saying personal involvement is necessary in socialscience research and can't be conducted independently of human feelings. Johnston is a member ofAnthropology in Action, a group formed to combat the use of social research for governmentalmanipulation of people. He said this kind of thing has been done in Viet Nam. Johnston did a socialstudy of a Mexican peasant village last summer, which will be published by the UCLA press in 1973.

Westernstudents pay $495 for tuition annually. The state pays the rest of the $1,155 estimated total cost. AUniversity of Washington I n s t i t u t e of Governmental RE search group last week proposed thattuition be raised about 85 per cent of the actual costs involved in educating each student. The plan,which its creators term "radical," is based on the assumption that students value their college educationmore than they value the cost of providing it. College graduates traditionally earn more money than highschool graduates do, also. A mutual income insurance loan plan, to be called the Washington HigherEducation Assistance Program, would allow students to borrow tuition from the state and repay it, inrelation to their income, -over a 30-year period. If the legislature wanted students to enter certainoccupations, it could "forgive" them portions of their debt. Loans could be obtained for students in private colleges, non-residents and residents attending out-of-state schools.

But turning the voting process into this kind of election day "Beat the Clock" is going a bit too far.letters Huxley dean offers another perspective Editor, Western Front: The article "Huxley: Is theControversy Over?" that appeared in the Western Front Oct. 31 was read with great interest. I appreciate the research that went into formulating the article, but I would like to place another perspective onsome of the points covered. 1. The N o r t h w e st Environmental Studies Center was not presented tothe legislature as a building to alleviate space problems for any department. It was not justified as a new building on the basis of formulas generated by student credit hours and space requirements of sciencedivisions. That part of the Capital Improvement Program 1969-75 which was presented to the governor in July, 1968 and which dealt with the Northwest Environmental Studies Center building emphasized theunique concept of Huxley College and an interdisciplinary approach to environmental studies whichwould encompass not only the sciences but social and cultural aspects of the environment. Departmentpursuits of environmental programs in the new building were visualized, but the building was notconceived for housing ongoing undergraduate programs of existing departments. Biology and geologyhave never donated space to Huxley. All the space in the Northwest Environmental Studies Center wasprogrammed from the beginning for environmental research in the areas of biology, geology, chemistry,ect., but such programming for use is different than assigning space to departments. 2. Dr. FrederickSargent never at any time allocated the entire equipment budget for NWESC to Huxley College. He didcharge the Environmental F a c i l i t i e s Coordinating Committee (Miller, Chairman) to makerecommendations for the allocation of equipment funds. Geology and biology were both represented onthis committee. ^ A change in the committee's assignment was made after protests were lodged, andthe charge was redirected to the NWESC Program Committee, which also included members fromgeology and biology (Miller, Chairman). 3. Huxley 336, Human Genetics and Evolution, the allegedduplicate Huxley course was never taught. Listed among course descriptions for 1971-72, 336 waswithdrawn when it appeared it would conflict with a similar course that was projected for biology. Perusal of Western's catalogs from 1969 to the present reveals no biology course numbered 470. Contrary tothe statement made in the article, Huxley College from its beginning required other prerequisites toclasses than the completed general education requirement. 4. "Hard science", as interpreted by somestatements in the article, seems to leave us with only the study of rocks. Cooperation and understanding between the departments and Huxley College are of course desirable and possible, but this does notalways mean that new programs must conform to existing departmental programs, patterns and goals.Gene W.

Stannard Jr. New, improved blandX Editor, Western Front: About the "Would you send your kid to Western?" article- Apparently the "adhoc committee on curricular problems" feels that Western is not producing students of high enough"quality". Its solution is to set standards for what a student should learn and then apply pressure tomake sure that students meet these standards. It is not the business of the state, the college, or myparents to decide what I should learn. What I learn is my own business. If the "ad hoc committee"wants a new, improved brand of student, I sure hope they go find someone else to lay their trip on.

Hicks Emeritus professor of English Report not slanted Editor, Western Front: The Nov. 3issue of the Western Front contained several articles and an editorial addressed to the report on thereasons behind the faculty vote of no confidence in President Flora. There were several errors andomissions in these articles which we wish to correct. 1. The result of the roll-call vote was 22 for, 11against, and 1 abstention. 2. The question of release of the report has not been resolved as yet. 3. It isthe responsibility of the Board of Trustees to forward the report to President Flora; President Florarequested that he not be given a copy prior to the Board meeting. 4. In reference to the phrase "Judgeand jury hearing the charges" by which we assume the editor meant the Committee of Inquiry, we notethat the committee consisted of 4 faculty, 2 students, 1 staff member, 1 administrator, and 1 emeritusprofessor. 5. The role of the committee was neither that of judge nor jury; it was assembler ofinformation for the Board. The process of review is not complete; the Board of Trustees has announced a special meeting to continue investigation of this problem. Presumably President Flora will have anopportunity to respond to the report prior to or at that meeting. The articles and editorial containedstatements that the report is obviously slanted. The report is predominantly critical because thecomments of the faculty on the committee's q u e s t i o n n a i r e were p r e d o m i n a n t l y critical."Slanted" implies that distortion was introduced in writing the questionnaire or in summarizing the data;we do not believe we slanted the report. Only one who read the questionnaires c o u l d make meaningful comments on this point. Mr. (Jim) Kennedy, the committee member who withdrew his endorsementafter the Senate, accepted the report, was given ample opportunity to read any or all of thequestionnaires. Unfortunately he chose to read none of them; nor did he avail himself of his right tosubmit a minority report. George Gerhold, Edwin Clapp, Barney Goltz, Marvin Olmstead, Harvey Gelder,Helen O.

Members of the Committee of Inquiry Better than last pageEditor, Western Front: I'm wondering why the article that appeared in your October 27, 1972 issue of the Front explaining the Walk or Bike for the Retarded didn't get getter coverage. The importance of thisfund-raising project for the retarded can't be over stressed, and the article did certainly warrant a betterthan last-page position in your paper. I think the population of Western would be interested in knowingthat they can participate in the Walk and Bikathon November 12, 1972, an that questions about theWalk can be answered at the Viking Union information desk.

Mary Robinson, Associate Dean of students atWestern, said that any students who are really in financial binds may get an emergency loan from thefinancial aid office. A spokesman for the police department said that, more often than not, the personhas had enough money in his pocket to pay for the item he was stealing. Also, it's likely that the personcould not even use the item. For instance, there have been a number of cases involving non-smokerswho stole cigarettes. They also stated that they seldom had any intention of selling the cigarettes tosmokers. Another case had a person stealing a 14-cent box of candles with absolutely no intention ofever using them. There have been several cases where the shoplifter was a respected community leader.One shoplifter had been a cheerleader, an honors student and a church leader. She went against thegenerally accepted values of society by getting pregnant. When arrested for shoplifting, she admitted that all she wanted was for someone to help her. A police department spokesman described many of theshoplifters as students who were away from home for the first time, in their lives. This shoplifting could be due to an improper adjustment to college life. Conrad Thompson, Whatcom County probation officerwho deals with shoplifters every day, says that there are three other reasons for shoplifting. 1) They don't see it as being that big of a thing. Witness the great number of very small items that are stolen.Thompson said, "Many of the students' attitudes are 'Who misses it?' " 2) Self-service stores provide agreat temptation for potential shoplifters. The layout of such stores makes it hard to prevent stealing.Also, many shoplifters have stated that they would have paid for the item if a store employee would havewaited on them. A survey shows that a great number of people arrested for shoplifting had no intention of stealing anything when they entered the store. 3) Many young people view it as a kind of a rip-off against the establishment. A frequently heard opinion is that "big business overcharges the public anyway sothis is a kind of retribution for the public." A conclusion of a report on shoplifting by the University Yearfor ACTION at Western was that there is really no one type of shoplifter or any one reason for his actions. The businesses most frequently victimized by shoplifters are those places closest to the Westerncampus. The usual sentence for a shoplifter is a $104 fine (actually, a $100 fine and $4 court costs). The conviction also goes on a person's record. Having this on one's record often hampers chances foremployment. However, if the person has no arrests or convictions in the next year, the court may instruct the police to erase the conviction from the person's record. The maximum sentence for shoplifting is a90-day jail sentence and a $254 fine. join the losing team at Elaine Powers,.

"However, Country Joe will be paid some sort of amount to cover his ' expenses," Gerry Wolfe,VVAW Bellingham chapter president, said. Seventy per cent of the profit from this concert will be usedfor programs within the VVAW. The remaining funds will be given to the Rising Sun, The BellinghamWomen's Resource Center and the Northwest Passageâ€”10 per cent to each organization. Wolfe saidthe money will be given to the Rising Sun because "they perform a valuable service to veterans in helping them cope with their post-Vietnam syndrome and with their drug problems too." The money for theWomen's Resource Center "is for combating sexism that we feel within ourselves," Wolfe said. PaulDavis, the regional director of the VVAW, said "10 per cent will be given to the Northwest Passagebecause they are ardent spokesmen against the Vietnam War too." Twenty per cent oi tne profits willgo to the regional defense fund where it is used to cover court costs in suits brought against them by the U.S. government.

The Vikings totaled a lowscore of 27 points in the seven school event hosted by Oregon Tech. Western was followed by Centralwith 73 points, Oregon College of Education with 75, Southern Oregon 101, Eastern 128, EasternOregon 148 and Oregon Tech 161. John Barry of Southern Oregon won the individual championship bycovering the wet five mile course in a time of 26:53. Oregon College's Kirk Gamble took second placehonors in 27:06. Western's Paul Scovel, Mike Shaw and Tom Duncan placed third, fourth and fifth withrespective times of 27:24,27:25 and 27:26. Oregon College placed its second runner in the top ten, Rick Fordney, for sixth place and was followed by the Western trio of Will Rathvon, 27:29, Fred New, 27:51and Russ Fuller, 27:51. Western's last runner to cross the finish line was Mike Cowan, who finished inthe time of 29:25 for 26th place in a meet having 49 runners. Last year's individual champion, BobMaplestone of Eastern, finished 10th behind Western's Fred New. Maplestone had not hit peak form yetthis year in any of his earlier meets. Dick Bowman, coach of the Viking harriers, said winning theconference meet was great and also said it was unusual that the Oregon papers tabbed Western as theteam to beat. "Nobody in the conference really knew anything about us at all," Bowman said. "We never saw anyone except Eastern Oregon. I had it planned that way. I didn't want any of the schools to reallyknow how strong we actually were. That's the name of the story right there." Scovel who placed first forthe Vikings, was praised by Bowman for a fine effort. "This is first time he's ever won for us," Bowmansaid. "That's really great news. Paul's never really been known to have that trait. He's always ran toughbut this time he really did the trick." Bowman said he was pleased with the rest of his runners also. "As a group, they all ran tough," he said. Bowman has a training philosophy that differs from the type oftraining other coaches employ. Bowman puts emphasis on quality in training coupled with adequaterest. By quality training, Bowman said the deemphasis is on long mileage or quantity training and moreemphasis on sprinting and rest. "Many coaches run their kids too much in preparation for a meet,"Bowman said. "I believe you have to have a good background in distance, then throw in the quality."Western fullback Tom Wigg (44) slipped by Oregon College defensive tackle Terry Watkins (65) for a short gainer in Saturday's game.

ThornSchultz photo Wolves shutout Viks, 17-0 by O. K. JOHNSON Holding Western's vaunted running attack to a total of 56 net yards, the Oregon College of Education Wolves handed the Vikings their fifth loss ofthe season with a 17-0 Homecoming shutout Saturday night at Civic Field. Inability to move the football after making a big play, coupled with the inability to score inside the Oregon College ten-yard line,contributed heavily to the Big Blues first shutout of the year. Western got the first break early in thegame, with sophomore defensive back Randy Rankin recovering an OCE fumble, but the Vikings wereunable to move the ball. On their third possession, Oregon College quarterback Tom Horn moved histeam 72 yards in 11 plays, running the ball unmolested over the left side of the Viking defense for thetouchdown. On the Vikings first play after the kickoff, quarterback Marshall Torre surprised the crowdwith a 67-yard pass to split end Steve Jasmer that set Western up at the Oregon College eight-yard line, yard on the first play, Torre fell down on the second, threw incomplete on third down and freshman JayOverway missed on his field goal attempt to leave the Vikings with nothing on the scoreboard. .^^uumu.A fumbled punt by Western late in the second quarter set the Wolves up for another touchdown. Hornused wingback Gary Hartman for a three-yard opener and then threw a 56 yard scoring strike to his tightend Kevin Meen to put the Wolves comfortably in front 14-0 to end the first half scoring. The Oregonteam scored again for the final time when Kevin Moen kicked a 31-yard field goal with 9:21 left to play in the fourth period. Western unleashed the special play they had been working with all week-called theshotgun. Dug up in an old play book by head football coach Boyde Long, the shotgun formation provided some razzle-dazzle to the game, but still did not enable the Vikings to get on the scoreboard. Thegame was Western's fifth loss in seven outings, and put the Vikings in a tie with Eastern Oregon forfourth place in the converence.

We don't make a lot of noise, but this is where it's really happening. You see, a largecorporation like Kodak has the resources and the skill to make this world a little more decent place tolive. And we intend to do what we can to see that this is exactly what happens. Take our home city,Rochester, New York for example. We cut water pollution in the Genesee River by using naturalbacteria to dispose of unnatural wastes. We cut air pollution by using electrostatic precipitators in a newcombustible waste disposal facility. We helped set up a black enterprise program in downtownRochester, and we've been experimenting with film as a way to train both teachers andstudentsâ€”including some students who wouldn't respond to anything else. And we didn't stop withRochester. Kodak is involved in 47 countries all over the world. Actively involved. Why? Because it's good business. Helping to clean the Genesee River not only benefits society...but helps protect anotherpossible source for the clean water we need to make our film. Our combustible waste disposal facility not only reduces pollution... but just about pays for itself in heat and power production and silver recovery.Our black enterprise program not only provides an opportunity for the economically disadvantaged... buthelps stabilize communities in which Kodak can operate and grow. And distributing cameras and filmto teachers and students not only helps motivate the children... but helps create a whole new market. Inshort, it's simply good business. And we're in business to make a profit. But in furthering our businessinterests, we also further society's interests. And that's good. After all, our business depends onsociety. So we care what happens to it. Kodak More than a business. L

Show morethe Vol. LXII no. 18 western front Western Washington State College Beltingham, Washington 98225 Tuesday, January 13, 1970 10c Doan quits presidency; Baker in AS President Al Doan voluntarily resigned his office Thursday afternoon. Vice-president Greg Baker has assumed the presidency under p r o v i s i o n s of t h e AS Constitution. Doan told the AS legislature that he was stepping down due to physical, financial and administrative reasons. His decision came as a complete surprise to most of student government. "I have been swamped with a lot of little stuff during the past quarter and couldn't accomplish what I had set out to do," Doan explained. He later told the Western Front that the decision was also based on his "lack of ability to accomplish anything due to the intransigence of administrators and faculty." Doan admitted that he was disappointed with the sluggish progress of the proposed faculty-student pub on campus. The pub was one of his campaign pledges during last Spring's AS elections. In his closing remarks before Thursday's legislature meeting, Doan said that he was d i s a p p o i n t e d w i t h the legislature's failure to take the i n i t i a t i v e necessary for responsible leadership. "Too many times legislators came to me for answers, not advice," Doan remarked. He added that he had "all the confidence in the world" that Greg Baker would adequately handle the presidency. Doan, a part-time student this quarter, said that he would be willing to assist student government on the pub project and the current bookstore issue. AS suggests Co-op study JOHN STOLPE exchange editor The Associated Students might finance a comprehensive survey of co-op bookstore operations on campus, former AS P r e s i d e n t Al Doan announced late last week. Doan said the study is necessary following wide-spread student complaints of bookstore operations over the past three years. " T h e survey would be s i g n i f i c a n t l y helpful in determining whether or not a rebate system is feasible and primarily if we can promote more efficient operation of the facility," Doan said. Bookstore Manager Ray Knabe had no comment for the Western Front when asked for an opinion of the proposed study. Dr. Howard Mitchell, acting chairman of the economics department and chairman of the Bookstore Board, said that neither he nor his board had been confronted with the alleged inefficient operations. "I think that the Associated Students should come to the Bookstore Board with their problems before hiring a management consultant," Mitchell explained. Due to a cut-back in state funds, the survey will have to be financed by the Associated Students. The AS legislature must give the go-ahead by a two-thirds majority vote. Doan said that he was confident that the legislature will give the final approval. A preliminary study proposal has been submitted by Harry J. Prior and Associates, Inc., management consultants in Seattle. The proposed survey includes a student wants questionnaire and a comprehensive survey of bookstore operations and plans. The study would include observation of bookstore operations and a review of operating records. Doan said the study might cost the Associated Students as much as $8,400. Al Doan, AS President, has resigned his office due to a number of reasons. See letter page 5. -photo by walker Speakers set for Moratorium Vietnam Moratorium activities for January will center around programs offered this Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Thursday has been designated "Peace Action Day" throughout the country. A special ceremony honoring the memory of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.,-the assassinated civil rights and peace activist who was born on January 15—will be held at 12:30 p.m. Thursday in L-3. A speech he delivered shortly before his death, linking the liberation struggles in Vietnam and America, will be read, and the award winning film, A Face of War, will be shown. A s p e a k e r from the student-organizers of the Canadian Vietnam-protest movement will explain what is happening in Canada and how t h e n a t i o n a l and local movements can be tied together Friday afternoon in the VU lounge. "Mr. Nixon has made it quite clear that the war is not going to be over soon," Dr. Bernard Weiner, a Moratorium Committee spokesman, said. "Indeed, the aims of the Nixon Administration are the same as those of the Johnson years: to 'hold' South Vietnam for American military and economic ends, one way or the other, with American or puppet troops. "Hence, we have to redouble our efforts to educate first ourselves on the facts of the war, and then help educate others." There will be an important meeting of Western's Vietnam Moratorium Committee at 3 p.m. today in VU 10. The Committee will discuss this month's program and h o w it can be coordinated, and plan for February's larger Moratorium activities. Police crack down on hikers The Bellingham Police Department began enforcing a city ordinance against hitchhiking early last week. Nineteen citations were issued to Western students on Tuesday alone.
