The ^ gt;ard also discussed theclosure of Campus Drive. Â«. Dean of Men C. W. McDonald and Security Marshal G eorge Steer,representing the college, requested that the city reconsider their action on the two-hour limited parking on Highland Drive. The Board originally instituted two-hour parking as they thought it would help withthe parking problem for commuting students, Steer said. Law school tough "it's tough to get into lawschool and it's tough to get through," said associate dean of the University of Washington (UW) LawSchool, John Huston. Here to give information about the UW Law School, Huston met with more than 20 students last WPPJT Huston spoke of attrition from both poor motivation and from unanticipatedpersonal problems. Women, he said, are the worst enemy of the law school and its students. TheUW Law School has 380 students and 33 faculty members. It admits about 150 students eachyear. War declared on U.S. COPENHAGEN, Denmark, (CPS) â€” The independent republic of BirdIsland, situated in the middle of a city lake here, has declared total war on the United States, accordingto the British news service reporters. The newly proclaimed republic has a population of six. It wouldhave been seven, but one of the founding fathers fell overboard from the land craftâ€” a dinghy â€” andhad to swim back to shore. Danish police on the Banks of Lake Sortedamssoeenwere makinginvasion plans today because the Bird Islanders â€”students from an organization called Zenith â€”refused to give up their 12- 00-square-yard country. lt;C' status raised Santa Clara, Calif. â€” ft.P.)Students at the University of Santa Clara now have a new grade to shoot for: the C+. The grade will carry a grade point value of 2.5 points, 0.5 points higher than the C grade. No longer will it be necessary to receive a B to balance out a D grade; two C + 's will achieve the same effect. It should also be notedthat the majority of the faculty members were especially in favor of this new grade because it will allow them to separate the "C" students, into which category the greatest number oi Santa Clara studentsfit. the western front Vol. LX, No. 8 Western Washington State College, Bellingham, Wash. 98225Tuesday, November 7,1967 Individual Copy 10C Neighbors resist Manor addition Sehome Manor standsalone and unwed on State Street in a manner of speaking. Its mates, other multt unit apartments, is nowbeing proposed by a local contractor to alleviate the shortage of married student housing. (Photo byFinley) The owner of Sehome Manor wants to expand the development by 92 apartments. Home-owners in the area have gone to the Bellingham City Council to prevent all of the planned expansion. JamesBolster, owner of the Manor, plans to build two additional buildings and lease them to Western. He isalready leasing the present building, the converted St. Joseph Hospital on State Street, to the collegefor mar. ried student housing. At the Oct. 30 City Council meeting residents of the area presented apetition asking that Bolster not be granted me Specific Use Permit he needs to expand. Without t hi s permit, Bolster can only have 130 apart, raents on the property. He now has 62. Mrs. James O'Brien, a resident of the area, explained that if Mr. Bolster triples the size of the Manor, the density will"change the character of the neighborhood." Home-owners in the area have predicted that with a marriedcouple and up to two children in each of the 155 apartments, there might be more than 600 peopleliving in a one-square-block area. Another objection raised by property - owners is that Bolster's plandoes not provide adequate parking facilities, since the city requires one 10' x 20* parking stall for each apartment, and Bolster's proposed parking stalls are 9* x 18'. The Bolster plan calls for 180 stalls, or 25 more than required. In total square feet, the city requires 31,000 (10 x 20 x 155). Bolster's plan onlyprovides 29,160 sq. ft. However, Bolster said in a FRONT telephone interview that his plan alsoprovided for access to the parkingspaces, whereas the city's requirement does not. Area residents alsoclaimed at the City Council meeting that Bolster does not provide enough playground area for theexpected number of children when the additions are completed. Bolster plans three playground areas, each visible from several apartment windows. Previously, residents of the area had objected that thetwo proposed buildings would obstruct their view. Bolster redesigned the plans so that the tallerstructure now comes only 14 feet above street level on the uphill side. The city allows buildings up to30 feet above street level. Another complaint of the area residents is that with such a concentration of people in the area, property values would decline. Bolster claims that if he gets the permit, houses inthe area could also get permits for use as boarding houses, increasing their value. At last night's CityCouncil meeting, the issue was again discussed. Bolster predicted that his request for the Specific Use Permit would be sent to a public hearing scheduled for Nov. 20. An advertisement concerningmarihuana is located on page 12 of this week's newspaper. It advocates some controversialmethods of dealing with a topic that many people consider a social problem. The advertisement has been well-researched and an attempt has been made beforehand to gauge the influence it will have onreaders. It is a paid advertisement which the Western Front staff suggests should be taken seriously.The newspaper staff as a whole, however, neither endorses the ideas contained therein nor condemnsthem. This is a mode marihuana cigarette. Western lecturer is author B.C. drug-use report drawsVancouver fire A report on drug use in Vancouver, B.C. by Western sociology lecturer Miss Ingeborg Paulus, which advocates relaxing laws on marijuana, recently drew fire from that city's prosecutor. The report found little connection between use of marijuana and "hard" narcotics and saidimprisonment does not solve the problem, but the report did endorse strict regulation of LSD.Prosecutor Stewart McMor-ran, according to "The Vancouver Sun/' termed Miss Paulus "a little outof touch with reality." He said the report is statistically insignificant because toofew cases werestudied. Miss Paulus told the FRONT that the report was based on 72 questionnaires, 40 interviews and observations. She said both the dangers and delights of marijuana are overrated. Miss Paulus feelsimprisonment is not the answer because "the best hopes for their (marijuana users) return toordmary society is for the'establishment' to keep lines of communication open," but prison simply cutsthem off more. Hippies are confused by the seeming inconsistency of the illegality of marijuana andlegality ol alcohol, which they think is a greater menace, she said. They often feel isolated fromsociety, but few users "commit serious criminal offenses" and suggests "Only a small portion of thoseso far investigated will become 'social problems,' "the report said. The report was conducted over an 18-month period for the Narcotics Addiction Foundation of British Columbia. Miss Paulus received herM.A. in sociology with honors from the University of British Columbia. A native of Germany, she is now a Canadian citizen. Miss Ingeborg Paulus.

Future graduates to need language A foreignlanguage proficiency will be required of students who will be graduated from Western in 1973. This rule would include most of the freshmen starting in the fall of 1969. A minimum proficiency equivalent to the study of two years of high school or one year of college will be required, according to the 1967-68 catalog.

"We oppose it because it threatens our status-quo; it pricks the American ego." Lens, national co-chairmanof the Student Mobilization Committee, delivered a one-hour talk entitled "Anti-Communism as anAmerican Credo" to a scattered crowd of 30. He outlined the history of the anti-communism movement before discussingthecurrentsitua-tion. "We are in the midst of the most titanic social revolution in the world's history," Lens said. "The U.S. is losing the cold war because it refuses to move in the samedirection as the current revolution." Concerning Vietnam, Lens remarked that "the U.S. involvementin Vietnam is not concerned with making the world safe for democracy but rather to make the worldsafe for American economic ventures." As for the future, Lens concluded that "in order to prevent anall-out nuclear war in the future, the United States must abandon its phobic fear of communism." . . . . t m u m m t t u u m w w "Where Quality and Good Tastes Are" BUNKS DRIVE-IN Where Quality Goes In Before The Bun Goes On FLAVOR CRISP FRIED CHICKEN BETTER THAN EVER i Dine in your car or our inside dining room. 2220 Cornwall 733-3520 *â€¢ i M . . . .

This year the pay scale for new Ph.D.'s tired asassistant professors ranges from $8,000 to $9,617 a year depending on the salabil-ity of theirspecialties. That may sound like a lot, but consider that the average Ph.D. has had approximately eightyears of undergraduate and graduate study. If he had worked iÂ» a trade, he could have earnedinore than $50,000 during the sanio period. Of course, his potential salary j'g higher than that of atrade nan. Job security is greate. and time off, including Sabbatical leave, more plentiful. Theintangible rewards of prestige, and of working in an area o% personal choice with compar !tive freedom,are greater. gt; Fac.' jity salaries are proposed by tfte Faculty Council Salary Committee. Thetentative salary budget is presented, eventually, to the state legislature on a biennial basis. Thefaculty pay schedule usually requires adjustments to fit the legislative appropriation, before receiving final approval by the board of trustees. There are six automatic steps and three discretionary steps inthe salary schedule of an assistant professor. Within a seven-year period, the assistant prof may begranted promotion to associate professor. Salaries in this category rangeirom $9,978 to $11,-888 a year on a six-step basis. Merit increases could increase this to $13,600. Spring dorm dedicationA spring dedication for Mathes and Nash Halls was recommended by the Auxiliary EnterprisesCommittee at its meeting Wednesday. The committee also discussed the need for married housing,saying it would probably have to come from private builders, said Dean of Students James Hitchman,committee chairman. For the associate professor to become full professor, he must normallydemonstrate high attainments in both research and teaching. Full professors at Western are paid$)2,310 to $14,056 in five steps. Discretionary awards could increase this amount to $16,056. Nextyear, the minimum for assistant professors starts at $8,541 and goes to a maximum of $17,186 for fullprofessors. "Salaries here are not as high as at some schools, but we are putting forth full effort toincrease them," James Hilde-brand, last year's chairman of the Salary Committee, said. Only this way,he believes, can Western get and keep the best teachers.

Homecoming activities revive spirit of the 20's By SANDY UNTEW EGNERContributor Western took on a razzle-dazzle aura last week when dorms turned into speak-easies, icecream parlors, or "flicker" houses for its Roaring 20's Homecoming. The Delta Delite, a pink and red icecream parlor, won first prize in the Housing Displays contest Second prize went toSigmafor the"Fliquors." Besides creating their display, Sigma Suffragettes followed their sister flappers through the upper campus, chastising them for their wayward ways. Edens came in third for its more seriousdisplay showing the moral decadence of the 20's â€” including a collection of over 800 beer bottles.Gamma and Kappa both won Honorable Mentions in the contest. Besides the regular trophies for thetop three places, a traveling trophy, awarded by the Western Front, will be given to the winninghouse. The champion pie eater at Games Day, consuming four and one-half pies in two minutes, wasJim Fulleton. Nash Hall won the dormitory chariot-races as well as the pie throwing contest.

Dr. Katharine Carroll, in the letter published in last week's FRONT, saidPeruvian children desperately need educational aids. She suggested maps and visual materials to teachnumbers, colors, nature study and simple anatomy; and money to buy books, furniture, medical care.Dr. Sam Kelly, education professor who has been receiving Dr. Carroll's letters, suggests thatinterested persons write her directly at Apartado No. 643, Trujillo, Peru. He says he will also talk withgroups or persons wanting to help. We are repeatedly asked this year: why no controversy? Thedepartment of political science bubbles, FBI agents are supposedly shadowing every pothead on campus, Saga workers are striking and students have little or no.power. "We miss it," our former friends decry."Why don't you really sock it to 'them'? What's the matterâ€”you selling out?" They rip up the newspaper, sneer and walk out our door, and we never see them again. We have come to realize that that is the price newspapermen pay when they help create a paranoid campus. 'Healthy' could hardly be an appropriateadjective for the shambles we left in June of the last school year. The former college president left withlittle credit to his name; the Associated Students election campaign had at least partially been a debateon Tom Dooley's devil theory and Western's faculty seemed to be splitting at the seams over severalissues. It is not enough to report and assay such a conglomerate mess. Rather, one must determinewho had a lion's share in making it that way and why. This is what great journalists like Lincoln Steffensmust have meant when they talked about putting your finger on a community's pulse. "Why nocontroversy? " Because it often clouds your mind to the point that you forget the mundane process ofeveryday living. Because you get hung up with ideals and forget pragmatic solutions to things that cannotbe argued on a pie-plateau in the sky. But mostly because campus controversy nearly always involvesthe same people. We perpetuate an in-group that almost kicks out the foundation from under reasoningprocesses on campus. Is anyone getting the message? You who cry "Why no controversy?": Did youever climb down from your steed and kick your enemy in his behind? Do you ever remember thehypocritical things you did yesterday that you are crying "they" did today? This week something hascome up, however, which does deserve the attention of everyone from Nash Hall to the Sears andRoebuck hardware department. The quiet kid with well-trimmed hair and dressed in dapper clothes whois sitting next to you right now might be stoned. Yes, he might have just finished smoking marihuana.Maybe he is a friend of yours. Would you like to see him go to jail for six months? There are both facultymembers and students who have smoked or are now smoking an illegal substance known as marihuana.Some of these people have devoted their lives to helping you clean some of the crabgrass out frombetween your ears. Others have been sacrificing their grades and stability to keep student governmentgoing. Who knowsâ€”maybe one of them is writing for your student newspaper. Can you truthfullybelieve that these people are degenerate and sinful? On the other hand, you who do know the "drugscene," can you say you are proud that you have sold your lousy "lid" or ounce of marihuana for $15 after you bought it in San Francisco for $4? Do you like to blow freshmen's minds with your psychedelic toys? Have you ever quit crying about your persecuted state long enough to really tell people why you want tosmoke marihuana? Can you convince anyone that you are really interested in just laws and not justhedonism? Why don't you do it? More than 40 educators here are brave enough to ask for improvedlaws. They stand a chance to lose more than beads and bells if there are repercussions for theadvertisement they signed which this week appears on page 12. In short their reasons for wanting lawsliberalized are believable because they are sincere. We seriously doubt that anyone is going to beconvinced by Western's 'hippies' that the laws should be changed. Hippies are too smugly satisfied thatthey are right. But they are still frustrated when no one listens to them. This is a classic form ofmasochism but we do not think anyone should emulate it. the western front official weekly newspaper ofWestern Washington State College, Bellingham, Wash. second-class postage paid at Bellingham, Wash. 98225 phone, 734-8800: editorial, ext. 2277 advertising, ext. 2276 Noel Bourasaw, editor-in-chief DaveCunningham, business manager Jeanne Doering, managing editor John Dickinson, Ad Manager BobHicks Neal Johns Don Wittenberger Feature Editor News Editor City Editor Stephen Lampe Mike KochDianna Timm Student Affairs Ed.

I- * v lt;,.' Marihuana not safe Marihuana safe? The recordsays otherwise. But the record is being ignored by a small number of highly articulate spokesmen, whoattempt to justify marihuana usage with an aura of intellectualism. Conspicuous among their argumentsis one that marihuana is ? "benevolent herb" and medically safe. But describing marihuana tb^ waydisguises its dangerous properties. A Greek researcher, Dr. Constandinos J. Miras of the University ofAthens, reported in September at the University of California at; Los Angeles that chronic users ofmarihuana usually suffer adverse personality changes and are subject to damage of the brain and otherorgans. His findings, the results of a 20-year study of marihuana u^ers in Greece, included studiestracing radioactive marihuana through the human body. These tests were supported by the U.S. NationalInstitute of Health. / *,. Dr. Miras found that abnormal effects of marihuana, including altered brain wavepatterns, persisted for as long as one year in si gt;rne persons after they had given up marihuana. '. Heobserved marked personality changes after marihuana use, including lethargy, slowed speech, loweredinhibitions and loss of morality : Dr. Miras also said that users could become suddenly violent withoutapparent provocation. This goes along with a report by the New York County Medical Society, "TheDangerous Drug Problem," which showed that marihuana in its stronger forms is definitely associated with criminality, violence and insanity. Dr. Martin H. Keeler, associate professor of psychiatry at theUniversity of North Carolina, laid down unpleasant facts about marihuana at a recent meeting of theAmerican Psychiatric Association, reporting some cases of marihuana users: â€”Man, 21, becamedisoriented to time and place, could not think, had difficulty controlling his limbs. For some time heexperienced hallucinations resembling those he had during the reaction." â€”Girl, 19, "became intenselyanxious and apprehensive without any idea as to what she was afraid of..." â€”Man, 19, "becameconvinced that his internal organs were rotting and that he would die." â€”Man, 22, "became convincedthat his taking marihuana was part of some gigantic plot, but he did not know what the plot was . . ."Aware of both sides of the marihuana issue, Dr. Donald Louria, president of the New York State Councilon Drug Addiction, concluded in an August issue of the "New York Times Magazine" that "thearguments for legalization of marihuana are based on pure hedonism." Dr. Louria, an associateprofessor at Cornell University Medical College, said proponents want the legal right to use marihuanabecause it gives them pleasure. He said that these spokesmen, even though faced with data on thepotential dangers of its unrestricted use, rely on the argument that marihuana is no more dangerous thanalcohol. "There are six million severe alcoholics in the United States," he wrote. "If marihuana were to belegalized as an escape mechanism to supplement alcohol, why should not amphetamines, cocaine andheroin be equally condoned? " Dr. Louria said a major criterion for legalization of any drug should be theinherent dangers in its indiscriminate use, not a comparison with the dangers of alcohol. Otherwise, hesaid, "there would be a proliferation of drugs dispensed merely for pleasure, and if each of these carried no more risks than presented by alcoholâ€”and by cigarettesâ€”the number of persons damaged wouldinevitably increase strikingly." He said that society has an obligation "to limit the distribution of potentially dangerous and medically useless drugs." Dr. Louria emphasized the dangerous effects of marihuana,saying an individual under its influence tends to lose his coordination and yet often has a feeling ofomnipotence. "A marihuana smoker behind the wheel of an automobile is dangerous. He is in a sensemore dangerousâ€”because less liable to detection â€”than a drunken driver," Louria wrote. Dr. Lourianoted that those who want to legalize marihuana often quote parts of the so-called La Guardia report, astudy made in New York City in 1944, but fail to quote the records that show that 9 out of 77 personsdeveloped acute psychosis when given marihuana experimentally. He said the report cited a subject whosmoked only one marihuana cigarette, and yet became restless, agitated, dizzy, fearful of hissurroundings and afraid of death. The person also had three short attacks of unconsciousness. "That isnot my definition of an entirely safe drug," Dr. Louria said. Answering arguments that marihuana does notnecessarily lead to heroin addiction, Dr. Louria wrote, "It does often start an individual into the morass ofdrug abuse; whether he moves on or stops depends upon him and his environment." The effects ofmarihuana use, instead of being pleasureful, have been medically shown to be bitter. The 1965 report onDrug Dependence for the World Health Organization reported: "Among the more prominent subjectiveeffects of cannabis (marihuana) . . . are: hilarity . . . carelessness-, loquacious euphoria . . . distortion ofsensation and perception . . . impairment of judgment and memory; distortion of emotionalresponsiveness; irritability and confusion. "Other effects, which appear after repeated administration . .. include: lowering of the sensory threshold, especially for optical and acoustical stimuli. . . illusions, anddelusions that predispose to antisocial behavior; anxiety and aggressiveness as a possible result of thevarious intellectual and sensory derangements; and sleep disturbances." â€”Jeanne Doering ---------- Western Front - 1967 November 7 - Page 5 ---------- Tuesday, November 7,1967 Prof would abolish tests, grades By DIANE GRUENSTEIN FRONT Staff "All grades, examinations and transcripts would be abolished if I were in absolute charge of a college,"declared Dr. Robert Meade, professor of psychology, in an interview last week. "The first day freshmenarrive, I would hand them a diploma postdated four years. They could take any course, as many or as few as they chose. No examinations or grades would be given because they are a detriment to getting a good education," he said. v Full fees would be charged for the four years although the student would not berequired to attend college at all, by Meade's method. The student could join the army, get a job or just loll around on the beach. "I would actually encourage some to stay away and even bring more or less mildpressure against others'attendance," Meade said. The student's ability would not be measured byclassroom examinations, but by his actual productivity in a real-life situation. Graduate school andemployers would do all the testing, since marks would not even be issued by professors or the college."Why should the college get involved in this evaluation when the graduate schools and employers knowwhat they want? Let them test for it," he said. Meade said that students are exceptionally ambivalenttoward teachers, usually beginning a course with admiration for their instructor and then developing ahatred which sometimes can be rather intense. The student's attitude results from the knowledge that,sooner or later, the teacher is going to test and evaluate him. In many cases there is the possibility of alow or even failing grade, and so the professor is viewed as a potential threat and someone to be detested. "Under the system I propose, this would probably not happen. The serious student would soon discoverthat this professor is a crucial ally in helping him to meet the ultimate test to be administered by thepotential employer or graduate school," said Meade. "Having taught in universities in India, I have comeup_against situations very much like this one. In India, professors do not give tests or marks. Outsideexaminers, with whom the student never come in contact, are responsible for administering and scoringexaminations. "As a result of this approach, I often noticed the formation of a front bordering oncomraderie between the student and the professor. Their mutual aim was getting the student a goodmark on that examination. The student then began to recognize the professor as a true educator and notas an evaluator or possible executioner. As a result, the student had no reason to dislike his professor.He accepted him as an essential instrument for helping him get good marks," he said. Meade considershimself enough of a social scientist to recognize that social change is very slow, but the practice of thepass-fail system might be one step toward the attainment of an educational system similar to the one heis concerned with here. Diminishing the importance of examinations would give professors andstudents more time to pursue the real goal of college, namely, learning, he said. "No longer would thestudents be burning the midnight oil trying to outguess what the professor will ask on the examination the next day. Nor would bleary-eyed professors have to waste still more oil and aspirin re-reading his ownwords in actual quote or distorted out of context on the examination papers," Meade commented."Since many students do nothing more than parrot the professor's words back to him I sometimes tellthem that to re-read my own words, no matter how golden, on their examination papers, makes me feellike a dog returning to his own vomit. "So, abolition of grades and examinations would contribute to thepeace of mind of the professors as well as that of the students. And it's a well-established principle thatpeace of mind is conclusive to learning," he said. Another benefit of Meade's proposal would be theelimination of "dead wood" from the classroom, he said. Not only would the professor be free of theunmotivated and disinterested student, but the cost of education might be lowered, he noted. Aconsequence of this would be the elimination of another form of dead wood: the dull and minimally-educated professor who has nothing of value to contribute to his students, Meade said. "The studentswould soon recognize him for what he is and leave his classes in droves. Having no students, the collegeadministrators would have good and sufficient reason to cast him on the academic rubbish heap," heconcluded.

In seconds thecomputer compares his qualifications against requirements of grants set up by foundations,business, civic, fraternal, religious, and government organizations, and prints a personalized report tothe student telling him where and when to apply for grants for which he qualifies.

SmHe in agony Editor: I hope that advocating changes in the law related tomarijuana is not taken to mean that one favors the use of the drug. My reason for signing the statementin today's paper is a rather simple one. In 18th Century England the penalty for stealing a bag of carrotsor a chicken was to be pulled apart alive by two teams of horses. Today, in America, the penalty forsmoking something that may be less harmful than alcohol is 20 years in prison. I find such lawsannoying, even though I don't advocate stealing chickens or smoking marijuana. Consistency wouldrequire either a liberalizing of the marijuana laws or stiffening those for alcohol. Any preferences? W.G. Heath Associate professor, biology After reading the article "Growing Up Absurdly" in this week'sWestern Front, I could only smile in agony. The author reminded me of a snot-nosed, piddle-pant kidin a sand pile, talking about quadrillions, sextillions, ogoodrillions andtu-baralillions. Those of us whohave attended the "larger," more "liberal" colleges in the East, realize that the ROTC programson the campuses had about as much influence on the students as Mrs. Trueheart's Baking 201 class.Those of us who included the ROTC training program, found it both stimulating and valuable. In myparticular case, it helped me to survive the two wars for which I was DRAFTED. Since we have failed toeliminate wars, our enemies, or the draft, a little knowledge in the ROTC field might be helpful. It isimmaterial to this reader whether we have ROTC on our campus. I only feel such articles insult theintelligence of the reader. If Mr. Bourasaw must write such articles, I suggest he confine his talents to the restroom walls, where he will find a captive reader. Ward Sondalle Speech therapy Bad bghtshow Editor: Who is in charge of running the spotlights for performances? it seems to me thatwhoever is in charge of this could become more adept at their skill. During the Ray Charles concert,there were many times when the soloists were not spotlighted. This is a college where peoplehandling this equipment should be striving for perfection rather than an amateur performance. TheRay Charles group is professional and should get service that is a little better than what was giventhem. If Western expects to keep big-name performers coming to our campus, we should be equipped to give them as much assistance as possible to make their performance a success.

These past two weeks havebeen hectic times for business and military recruiters all over the country. Campus planners apparentlyforesaw problems with dissenters because this year the military recruiters (r.) use the placement facilitiesto interview candidates. Meanwhile groups such as Students for Peace in Vietnam use the spot outsidethe coffee shop which recruiters have used in past years. 11 representatives set interviews here thisweek Editor in 1938 denounces war The following is an excerpt of an editorial written for the Nov. 10,1938, Collegian by Evan Hill, editor-in-chief. It is now included as a note about Armistice Day thisSaturday. Even in 1938, there were dissenters. The editorial read: And people celebrate ArmisticeDay, rejoicing that a war was stopped. They bow their heads in reverence for those who killed, or tried tokill, and were killed. That their sons, their leaders, their families, their very mothers, were allaccomplices to a wholesale murder plot, and a successful plot? That me world was insane for fouryears? That millions of people were slaughtered in the mud in the mad rush of patriotism? No! Theblind patriots feel warm inside from the blare of bands and a feeling of false heroism. They think that aservice has been done, that principles has been saved. Yes and they have been "saved." Severalmillions of these principles lie underneath white crosses in French graveyards today. Civilized man isproud of the fact that he has stopped killing. (But) He avoids the issue that he is a criminal, by feelingproud of the fact temporarily he is a law-abiding citizen. He has no remorse. He feels proud that he hasstopped killing and yet he will kill again. How can man celebrate Armistice when he is again wagingwar? "' Dr. Call likes 5-point grade system As an improvement to the present five-point gradingsystem, Dr. Donald Call, associate professor of sociology, suggests a three-point system. This scale would consist of A, highpass; B and C, pass; and D and F, fail "I seldom feel like I know the studentwell enough to rate him on a five point scale, when I feel that I could do him justice by the three pointone," said Dr. Call. He observed that one difficulty in the pass-fail system would occur when studentspass a non-major course in the pass-fail program, then later change their major to include that course.Call questioned how a required grade could later be assigned the course. v - i - i ,t.

NORTHWEST LIQUIDATORS 1318 CORNWALL OPEN FRIDAY NIGHTS UNTIL 9 Dance group depicts loneliness of life, man By RAYMOND MUSTOE Contributor The Anna SokolowDance performance Sunday night was like some fantastic excursion into inner space, into the darkest and deepest areas of the human soul. Expressing in dance all of the nameless sin, guilt, terror, agony,loneliness and isolation of our century, the Anna Sokolow company is like a twentieth century Dante.Their performance, Sunday, made a powerful statement of the spiritual lostness and longing of modernman as they expressed all of the emotion, all of the terror and pathos of the Inferno. Figures bent beneath burdens of sin and suffering beyond our comprehension. There was hate and violence, seduction andsensuality, madness, frenzied demonic possession, moments of love which brought agony as well asecstacy. Such figures have been met before in the mad etchings of Goya and the perverse fantasies ofBosch and Breugel. We travelled Sunday in the world of the Temptation of Saint Anthony and of MaryMagdeline possessed by Seven Devils. This is our madness, the insane asylum of the twentieth century.This is our Hell, Hell on earth, and the sins and suffering are worse than any in Medieval theology- worsemost of all because there is no paradise to aspire to, no hope of salvation We are lost in "The DarkNight of the Soul," and without the redeeming vision of Saint John of the Cross. We are an age doomedto a Hell of our own creation, a Hell of psychological fear, guilt, and anxiety, from which there is no hope.There are moments of love, tender but wrought with anxiety and they are over so quickly. We dance pasteach other, we dance in circles, never meeting, never touching. We are condemned to loneliness,spiritual isolation, lack of love for more than a mo ment. Such is life, and such is Anna Sokolowsportrayalof our lives. We are an age of violence and sensuality, the suffering soldiers, the closeness to death,contrasted to a world of cocktail trivia. POP art heroes and Campy comic strips. POW, ZAM, click click,and an age of automation, of a mechanical, dehumanized man. War, the machine, POP violence, realviolence, aimless trivial, a few moments for love, and then the anxiety, the isolation, the loneliness. The insanity. Anna Sokolow's company had a depressing but all too accurate view of life and our society. It was Hell, it was our madhouse Only when our eyes are opened to this fact can we expiate our own guiltand be relieved of sin and suffering. Perhaps Sunday's performance opened some eyes. says dorm keyabused sing.

Correct in his predictions two years ago, butfallingshorttothe number three team in the country, Central, last year, Randall also has visions of a trip to Kansas City and the national championships. Blessed with seven returning lettermen, including twoall- Evco selections, and some strong supporting talent, Randall is aiming to improve on last year's finerecord of 17-8. Leading the way for the Viks will be two-time Evco performer Mike Dahl. Also receiving NAIA honorable mention all- American rating last year, Dahl has just returned to Western campus aftera brief active duty role for Uncle Sam. Paul Hallgrimson, another all- Evco choiceÂ» will provide the Viks with a strong outside shooting attack. Joining him at guard will be sophomore letter man MikeClayton, who can also cast off accurately from long range. Spot starters last year, Whit Hemion andGary Reiersgard both are expected to see plenty of action this year along with Rich Tucker and RichBlanc. McDonald, Meade quoted in 'Time7 long-hair essay Dean of Men Clyde McDonald andPsychology Professor Robert D. Meade see nothing wrong with long hair, according to quotations in last week's issue of "Time" magazine. The two men were interviewed by Miss Dolly Connelly for the"Time" essay, "Longer hair is not necessarily hippie," in the Oct. 27 issue. Miss Dolly Connelly, afreelance writer and Bellingham resident, contributes to many magazines. Dean McDonald said."We ignore it. We do absolutely nothing against long hair even if it's down to their heels." Professor of Psychology R. D. Meade was quoted as saying, "Perhaps man is coming into his biological destiny,suppressed in our Puritan milieu. It is the male in all nature, you know, who spreads his gorgeoustail feathers and erects his ruff for the inconspicuous little brown mate." Miss Connelly consulted men'shair stylists and psychologists in the Seattle, Portland and Bellingham area. Her research took oneweek. "Time" edited the 24-page manuscript to 1-page length. According to Miss Connelly, there isno way to tell how many other writers contributed to this essay. BOB'S Drive-ln Fish and ChipsHamburgers Complete Fountain Service Orders to go 519 Â£.

"All laws which can be violated withoutdoing anyone any injury are laughed at Nay, so far are they from doing anything .to control the desiresand passions of man that on the contrary, they direct and indte men's thoughts toward what is forbiddenand desire the things we are not allowed to have. And men of leisure are never defident in the ingenuityneeded to enable them to outwit laws framed to regulate things whioS cannot be entirely forbidden . . . He who tries to determine everything by law will foment aime rather than lessen it." Spinoza The herbCANNABIS SATIVA, known as 'Marihuana' or "Hashish/ is prohibited under Federal and Washington state law. The maximum penalty for smoking cannabis in Washington state is twenty years imprisonmentand a fine of $10,000.00. Yet Cannabis appears to be among the least harmful of pleasure-givingsubstances, and is, in particular, far less harmful than alcohol. Study by Dr. W. H. McGlothlin (TheMarihuana Papers. Pages 4 0 9 , 4 1 2 , 4 1 3 ) has shown the injurious consequences of alcohol to be far more than any of marihuana. Cannabis is non-addictive. . . . .. The use of marihuana is increasing, andthe rate of increase is accelerating. Manhuana smoking is widespread in the universities, and the customhas been taken up by writers, teachers, doctors, businessmen, musicians, scientists and priests. Suchpersons do not fit the stereotype of tiie unemployed criminal dope fiend. The main justification for theprohibition of marihuana has been the contention that its use leads to heroin addiction. Marihuana isusually taken by normal persons for the purpose of enhandng sensory experience. When authoritiesprohibit marihuana, other people who seek to purchase it are forced to deal with persons outside the law.As a result of these illegal contacts, heroin may occasionally be offered to persons who would nototherwise have immediate access to i t It is the prohibition of marihuana, and not marihuana itself,however, which may contribute to heroin addiction. The present system of controls has stronglydiscouraged the use of marihuana preparations in medidne. ...... lt; .L We argue that claims which were formerly made for the effectiveness of marihuana in psychiatric treatment might now bear re-examinationin the light of modern views on drug therapy. This is witnessed in The Marihuana Papers by Dr. Z. T.Stockings, "A New Euphoriant for Depressive Mental States" and Drs. L. J. Thompson arid R. C. Proctor, "Pyrahexyl in the Treatment of Alcoholic and Drug Withdrawal Conditions." A case can also be made out for further investigation of the antibiotic properties of its cannabidiolic acid, one of the constituents of theherb. The possibility of alleviating suffering through the medical use of marihuana preparations should notbe dismissed because of prejudice concerning the social effects of drugs. The Government ought towelcome and encourage research into all aspects of marihuana smoking, but according to the law as itstands no one is permitted to smoke marihuana under any circumstances, and few exceptions are madefor scientific and medical research. It is preposterous that doctors who are entitled to prescribe opiumderivatives, amphetamines and barbiturates risk being sent to prison for personally investigating asubstance which is known to be less damaging than alcohol. A recent headline in "The (London) Times"called attention to the great danger of the 'deliberate sensationalism' which underlies the presentcampaign against 'drugs' and cautioned that: "Past cases have shown what can happen when press,police and public all |oin in a manhunt at a moment of national anxiety." In recent years the persecution of marihuana smokers has been intensified. Marihuana arrests in the United States were 7,000 in 1 9 6 4and 15,000 in 1966. The prohibition of marihuana has brought the law into disrepute and has demoralizedpolice officers faced with the necessity of enforcing an unjust law. Many persons have been arbitrarilydassified as criminals and threatened with arrest victimization and loss of livelihood. Many of them havebeen exposed to public contempt in the courts, abused by law and sent to prison. Attention has beencalled to instances where drugs have apparently been planted' on suspected marihuana smokers.Professor Leslie Fiedler aptiy describes a planting' situation in hisartide "On Being Busted A t Fifty," inThe New York Review of Books. Police have appealed to the public to inform on their neighbors andchildren. Yet despite these gross impositions and the threat to civil liberties which they pose, the policefreely admit that they have been unable to prevent the spread of marihuana smoking. Abuse of opiates,amphetamines and barbiturates has become a serious national problem, but very little can be done aboutit so long as the prohibition of manhuana remains in force. The police do not have the resources or themanpower to deal with both marihuana and the dangerous drugs at the same time. Furthermoreprohibition provides a potential breeding ground for many forms ot drag abuse and gangsterism. Similarlegislation in the 'twenties' brought the sate of alcohol under the control of an immensely powerful criminalconspiracy which still thrives today. Medical and professional opinion 1 "As a dergyman, I am deeplyconcerned over the effecls that the current prohibition is having on the young. They are losing all respectfor law and order and the authority of scientific researchers because unjust legislation is being used toenforce an unwritten Puritanical conformity, and because genuine research findings are unscientificallydistorted in their presentation for propagandistic purposes. Many of today's most intelligent andresponsible young people are equating the marihuana prohibition (at least) as equivalent to the Southernsegregationist laws They feel the only honorable course is to disobey the lawâ€”dvil disobedience of anonviolent Robert C. Swain, minister of Bellingham Unitarian Fellowship 2. "It is difficult to fashion aserious case against smoking marihuana except that a user will find himself in serious trouble if he iscaught by the police . . There is htt e evidence that marihuana damages the individuals who smoke it . .Similarly, there .s little basis for asserting that pot smoking is often a prelude to self-destructive or soaally damaging acts . . ." â€”Dr. Mervin B. Freedman, Chairman of the psychology department at SanFranasco State College, and Harvey Powelson, director of psychiatry at Cowell Memorial Hospital,University of Calif. 3 "There are no lasting ill-effects from the acute use of marihuana and no fatalities have ever been recorded . . . The causal relationship between these two events (marihuana smoking andheroin addiction) has never been substantiated. In spite of the once heated interchanges among members of the medical profession and law enforcement officers there seems h gt; bo a growing agreement withinthe medical community, at least, that manhuana does not directly cause criminal behavior, juveniledelinquency, sexual exdtement, or addiction. -Dr. J H. Jaffe, in The Pharmacological Basis ofTherapeutics, L Goodman and A. Gillman, Eds., 3rd 6d., lÂ¥0Â». 4. "Certain specific myths requireobjective confrontation since otherwise they recurrently confuse the issue, and inddentally divert theenergy and attention of police and customs and immigration authorities in directions which have very littleto do with facts and much more to do with prejudiced beliefs. The relative innocence of marihuana bycomparison with alcohol is one such fact, its social denial a comparable myth." â€”Dr. David Stafford-Clark, Director of Psychological Medidne, Guy's Hospital. "The (u gt;ndonj.Times," April 12, 1967. 5"Marihuana is not a drug of addiction and is, medically speaking, far less harmful than alcohol or tobacco. . . It is generally smoked in the company of others and its chief effect seems to be an enhancedappredation of music and color together with a feeling of relaxation and peace. A mystical experience ofbeing at one with the universe is common, which is why the drug has been highly valued in Easternreligions. Unlike alajhol, marihuana does not lead to aggressive behavior, nor is it aphrodisiac. There is nohangover, nor, so far as it is known, an deleterious physical effect." â€”Dr. Anthony Storr. London's"Sunday Times, February 5, 1967. 6 "Marihuana is taken for euphoria, reduction of fatigue, and relief fromtension . . . (it) is a valuable pleasure-giving drug, probably much safer than alcohol." â€”Dr. Joel Fort,Consultant off Drug Addiction to the World Health Organization, Lecturer in School of Criminology,University ot California. From Blum, Richard Ed., Utopiates, 1965. 7. From the condusion: "The use ofmarihuana does not lead to morphine or heroin or cocaine addiction, and no effect is made to create amarket for these narcotics by stimulating the practice of marihuana smoking." â€”The Marihuana Problemin the City of New York, by the Mayor's Committee on Marihuana: The Sociological Study, Introduction by Dudley D. Schoenfeld, M.D. Reprinted in The Marihuana Papers. Bobbs-Merill, New York, 1966. 8. "Ithink we can now say that marihuana, does not lead to degeneration, does not affect the brain cells, isnot habit-forming, and does not lead to heroin addiction." â€”Dr. James H. Fox, Director of the Bureav ofDrug Abuse Control, U. S. Food and Drug Administration. Quoted Champaign, "Illinois News-Gazette,"August 25, 1966. 9. "I believe we should not make a felony case against a young person for possession of marihuana. Marihuana dearly-does not possess the inherent dangers of LSD, for example, and thepresent law imposes a very severe penalty. It is too severe." â€”Dr. James Goddard, Commissioner of theU.S. Food and Drug Administration. Quoted in The Vancouver Sun: Oct. 3, 1967. This ad is sponsoredby the Ad Hoc Committee for altering the laws on marihuana. Local correspondence may be sent to P.O.Box 1261, Bellingham, Washington. The signatories to this statement suggest to state and federallegislators a four point program of marihuana law reform: 1. FEDERAL AND STATE GOVERNMENTSSHOULD REMOVE ADMINISTRATIVE RESTRICTIONS ON RESEARCH AND MAKE EVERY EFFORTTO FACILITATE QUALIFIED SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH INTO THE BENEFICIAL USES OF MARIHUANA.(Solomon, D. The Marihuana Papers. Bobbs-Merrill, New York, 1966. Pages 394-395.) 2. POSSESSIONOF MARIHUANA FOR USE ON PRIVATE PREMISES SHOULD NO LONGER CONSTITUTE ACRIMINAL OFFENSE. (Ref. WASH. STATE LAW: TITLE 69.33.220, U. S. PUBLIC LAW: 591 (1954).3. MARIHUANA SHOULD NO LONGER BE DESIGNATED (P. L. 672) A "HABIT-FORMING NARCOTICDRUG", AND THE LAWS GOVERNING ITS EXCHANGE OR POSSESSION WHICH DERIVE FROMTHIS DESIGNATION SHOULD BE REPEALED. THE DISTRIBUTION OF MARIHUANA SHOULD BELEGALLY CONTROLLED AND PERHAPS TAXED, BY GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES, BUT IN A WAYWHICH DOES NOT LIMIT INDIVIDUAL FREEDOM. 4 ALL PERSONS NOW IMPRISONED FORPOSSESSION OF MARIHUANA OR FOR ALLOWING MARIHUANA TO BE SMOKED ON PRIVATEPREMISES SHOULD HAVE THEIR SENTENCES (UNDER P. L. 591 AS AMENDED) REVIEWED INLIGHT OF THE EIGHTH AMENDMENT TO THE U. S. CONSTITUTION AND THE GROWING ATTITUDEOF SOCIAL ACCEPTANCE OF MARIHUANA.

(Photo by Finley) ByMIKE KOCH news editor "People are taking LSD not to know themselves and the universe, but for the hedonistic high that it provides," said Dr. Sidney Cohen, lead-off speaker in the crime and drugssymposium last week. Although LSD was first used in this country as a re search" tool to inducemodel psychoses, Cohen told students packed in the VU lounge that LSD "leaked out of thelaboratory onto the street about six years ago." Intense usage of this psychedelic drug began abouttwo years ago, said Cohen, who charged Dr. Timothy Leary's "proselytizing group" with responsibilityfor this increase. Cohen debated Leary here last^ year. Cohen cited studies he has conducted thatindicate confusion and organic brain damage can result from LSD usage. The hippie sub-culture is adrug sub-culture, 90 per cent LSD and 100 per cent pot (marijuana) said Cohen, Involvement with other drugs including speed (methedrine), heroin, cocaine and airplane glue was found in a majority of 30acid heads who had taken LSD 50 times or more, Cohen said. This substantiates his charge that "acidheads will try anything for a high, for fun, for kicks." Taking LSD has no observable positive effects oncreativity, said Cohen, who will soon publish the results of a study he has made on this subject.Actually, he said, "drugs dimin-i sh ambition, striving, hard work and stress â€”-those things whichlead to creativity." People quitting the LSD experiences have told Cohen that, "it's a blind alley," orthat "it did something for me and now I have to do something for myself." Other stories on drugspeakers may be found on pages 2 and 3. Campus Drive closes for future brick plaza Campus Driveis permanently closed. The area between the new Computer Center and Carver Gymnasium is tobecome abrick walkway for pedestrian use only. The new walkway, to be completed just after the firstof the year, is part of an extensive brick plaza, planned to surround the newly-constructed fountain.According to George Steer, director of campus security, all traffic is being rerouted along Highland Driveand College Parkway, the exceptions being service vehicles and emergency cases. The closure ofCampus Drive is part of an effort to consolidate Western's campus, now plagued by conflictingpedestrian and car traffic, according to Harold Goltz, director of planning and development. Theportion of Campus Drive between High Street and Hill Street is now closed except to emergency andservice traffic. A brick plaza is planned to be built there within the next y e a r .

(CPS)â€”"If you havetaken LSD, don't worry," says Dr. Jose Egozcue, a genetic specialist at the Oregon RegionalPrimate Center, "The drug is not as dangerous as recent publicity has led people to believe."Egozcue is considered, along with Maimon M. Cohen, State University of New York, as one of thecountry's most knowledgeable LSD researchers. He has often been quoted in the American press,though he says that many of the warnings sounded against LSD by national magazines are alarmistand false. Not everyone who has taken LSD sustains chromosome damage. "LSD, if taken in smalldoses, about 150 mics, rarely causes broken chromosomes/' said Dr. Egozcue. He said that thenumber of trips a person has taken is probably not important, it is the size of the dose whichdetermines the a-mount of damage, if any. "LSD is not addictive,*he added, "but it can be habit forming,like tobacco." "I wouldn't take it myself," he said of LSD, but he believes the dangerous aspect of thedrug has been greatly inflated by many popular periodicals. He said, "No one is sure how muchdamage, if any, the drug causes in brain cells and nobody really knows, in the brain, what ispsychological and what is physiological." He said there could be a relationship between "bad trips"and brain cell damage, but nobody really knows. He said in his own field, chromosome research,his work is still in an infant stage. At any time he might discover evidence that LSD does do permanentor serious damage to humans. Read the classifieds page 9 LSD man's most potent chemical, saysspeaker LSD is probably the most potent chemical known to man, according to Frank Larkworthy of the Los Angeles Bureau of Drug Abuse Control. Larkworthy said last Tuesday in the VU lounge that in onegram of pure LSD there are 180,000 therapeutic doses. Larkworthy showed a 25-min-ute color filmentitled WLSD- 25," and discussed the three categories of drugs dealt with by the Bureau of Drug Abuse Control. The first category is depressants. These are barbiturates intended as sedatives orsleeping pills. Complete physical addiction to barbituarates is possible, said Larkworthy. Withdrawalreactions are like epileptic seizures and barbiturate withdrawal has caused death, he added.Stimulants are the second group of drugs dealt with by the bureau. These are of the non-addictiveamphetamine family and include "Bennys" (Benzedrine), Methadrine and STP. Larkworthy said thatSTP, which recently gained much press coverage as a new underground drug, was actuallydeveloped in 1958 by the DOW Chemical company. They saw no use for the drug, however.Hallucinogens make up the third group. This group includes LSD, DMT and mescaline. Larkworthy saidthat in the U.S., mescaline is the one legal hallucinogen, but he qualified his remark by adding that legal users must be Indians and members of the Native American Church. At present, LSD is the subjectof 16 research projects in this country. Most of the research is being done by private researchers.Ronton speaks on crime "No single cause, no one set of circumstances you can put your finger on,makes a young person a juvenile delinquent, said Loren Ranton. state executive director of theNational Council on Crime and Delinquency in a lecture here Wednesday. Instead, elements rangingfrom those found in our own society, such as family breakdown, depersonalization, and ghettoes. to"uncertain world conditions" combine to produce delinquents, he said. Cures for the problem aredifficult to put into action. Ranton said that tendencies toward delinquency show up early in achild's life, and that 85 per cent of the children who witt "get into trouble" are recognizable by the timethey reach the third grade. Help for these grade-schoolers is scarce and hard to obtain, he noted.There are not enough specially-trained persons to help council and guide these youngsters, and theyend up in a juvenile court. "We are a brick-and-mortar orientated society," said Ranton. "We havechosen the most expensive way, and one of the most ineffective ones, to cure crime." He stated that an inequal system of justice exists. Statistics, he said, tend to show that more juvenile crimes occur inlower income family areas than in middle and upper class areas. Frosh doss largest part of fall's 6,848enrollment More than 6,000 students have enrolled at Western for fell quarter, according to William J.O'Neil, registrar. The freshman class is largest with 1,779 students and the senior class smallest with1,135. In between are sophomores with 1,592 and juniors with 1,268. There are 274 graduate students enrolled this year and 13 students at Fairhaven College. Full - time students, including graduate, total6,061. There are 182 part-time day students and 241 part-time evening. Full-time and part-timestudents total 6,484.

Speaker hits "archaiclaws' Central dismissal Tuesday, November 14,1967 Western Front 3 (paid advertising) mmmmmm TheRev. Byron Eshelman ended the week of discussion on drugs and crime as he spoke Thursdayafternoon on the' 'Myth of the Law Abiding Citizen." Eshelman's message was heard by 60 people in theViking Union, (VU). A coffee hour-discussion followed. The former chief chaplain for the CaliforniaDepartment of Correction used examples from his state in trying to prove that there are no real lawabiders left. "In California,"Eshelmanexplained, "80 per cent of reported crimes are unsolved. Andmost crimes are never reported." "Law enforcement agencies would like you to think that very fewcriminals escape justice. This is a myth," he said. Eshelman described those individuals servingsentences for .felonies as "our culture's scapegoats." Archaic laws, according to Eshelman, make itimpossible for anyone to be a true law abid-er. Those who are caught are those on the "out" with theestablishment. Eshelman blamed goals of affluence for the increasing number of felonies committed each year, "Those who grasped for the affluence and material things they are told to obtain, are thosewe throw behind bars and use as scapegoats." Eshelman's speech and the others during Drugs andCrime Week were sponsored by the Social Issues Committee.

By BOB HICKS Copy Editor The trials of Job: one of the oldest,possibly the most significant, and certainly one of the most agonizingly beautiful dramas in history.American poet Archibald MacLeish's "J.B.," which will be presented by the Western Players at 8:15 p.m.Thursday through Saturday in the Auditorium, follows closely the original drama of human existence as itis recorded in the Bible. J.B., the modern-day Job, is, as was his ancient predecessor, "perfect and anuprightman," grown wealthy and secure in the favor of God. He is God's darling, sheltered from theravages and stinking corruptions of human existence; convinced that God is just, good rewarded withgood, evil with evil. And then he finds himself the dupe in a battle of Divine Egos. To God (Zuss) he is thesymbol of obedience and praise to the Almighty. To Satan (Nickles) he symbolizes the questing spirit ofman which searches for truth and, once finding it, curses God and dies. J.B., once protected by Godfrom all human suffering, is subjected to every kind of anguish known to man. He becomes the ultra-man; the man who has experienced everything. Having tasted the best of existence, he is trodden intothe vilest mire and stench of life. Although the story of Job depends on a Supernatural court intrigue, it is essentially the story of man and his relationship to God, to the universe and to himself. J.B. is theessense of humanism. He is Everyman; his story is every man's. Bill Barwise as J.B. gives a convincinginterpretation of high theater. Val Smith as Sarah, his wife, is also impressive though perhaps too single-toned in her performance. Jim Korski's interpretation of God as a self-assured but smug and unfeelingpower-figure is excellent. Gregg Ross as the Devil, Nickles, is at times very good but at other timesseems almost too innocent in his portrayal of MacLeish's violently cynical, embittered Satan. ^ Thestage design by Dennis Catrell, who also directs the play, emanates a glowing starkness that preparesthe stage for the bared emotion and feeling that is the drama of J.B. the ROAO Goes eveR on 2k songcycle â€¢â€¢â€¢ music By 6orul6 swann â€¢â€¢- poems By i.

Mary Elizabeth Whitner, charged in 1965 with insubordination and unprofessional con-conduct by Central President JamesBrooks, discussed in a recent address totheEllensburg Town Meeting the circumstances surroundingher dismissal by a hearing committee. Mrs. Whitner sent letters in 1965 to state and local officialsnaming faculty members whom she suspected of drug activity. She explained these names were theresult of two years of information arid reports which came to her, unsolicited. Because of this, she was charged with insubordination and unprofessional c o n d u c t by Brooks and was directed to appearbefore a hearing committee within 10 days or be subject to immediate dismissal. Mrs. Whitner did not appear before the committee, arguing that the hearings followed the faculty code rather than the U.S.Constitution and the citizens' rights therein. - "When I came here eight years ago I signed a loyalty oathto the Constitution," Mrs. Whitner stated, "and my contract is with the Constitution, not with the facultycode. "I will not submit to a tribunal not directly under the Constitution," she added. Brooks, 'in aletter to the editor of the Ellensburg Daily Record on Oct. 27, explained his actions in the case:"Tenured faculty members have much protection and job security as well as certain procedural rightsbefore release. Mrs. Whitner chose not to use these privileges which are outlined in the college's Code of Personnel Pok icy and Procedure . . . The college trustees established this code in 1947 inconformance with their rights under Washington laws . . . This code was a part of her contract with the college." Mrs. Whitner said that when she did not appear for the hearing the board announced itwould have to assume the chargeswere true, and she was consequently dismissed.

There are three kinds of editorial comment thatwill appear on this editorial page besides "straight" news. .There are signed editorials. These areeditorials of a personal nature and do not necessarily represent the thoughts of the editorial board.Unsigned editorials generally do represent a consensus of the editorial board's thoughts. Columns arestrictly personal and should not be construed as to represent the feelings of the entire editorial board. This ex. planation is one of the few exceptions. While reading the newspaper from our neighboringUniversity of British Columbia, we found some editorial comment on a type of person that has beenplaguing many people in Canada latelyâ€” the politician-censor. Three incidents have been used aspolitical firewood by this type of person lately. We find it a bit ironical that these people are not mindingtheir own business and are interfering with other people's reading habits when the trend now is for peopleto mind their own business and not interfere when people are mugged or killed on. city streets. The twomost famous incidents to occur in Canada lately have been Vancouver Mayor Tom Campbell's censorship of the Georgia Straight, a hippie magazine, and Playboy, a "higher-class" magazine. According toCampbell, the Georgia Straight was just plainly a filthy newspaper, so he had its business licenserevoked. He then asked the national distributor of Playboy two weeks ago to remove four pages ofphotographs accompanying an article on the history of sex in the cinema. The distributor did so. Thereason he gave the UBC Newspaper for this censorship was complex. The press is free to criticizeanything in Canada, Campbell said, but it does not have the right to subject children of a tender age toobscene literature. He said the best-selling novel, Valley of the Dolls, is the filthiest book around but isaimed at an adult market. It is not obscene because it is really part of life. "But you don't sell it to a 10-year-old," he said. "You don't jar them into the realities of life. You have to be gradual." Campbell said the university student press should be able to print anything it wanted because students are adults. "Theyare past the point of being corrupted," Campbell remarked. These students have been through years oflearning and are becoming professionals. They should be exposed to sex and other facets of life, hereasoned. "But a ten-year-old child shouldn't," he added. He did not explain, however, how J0-year-olds were subjected to Playboy. The UBC newspaper editor's comment was witty and decidedly to thepoint. It is reprinted from the Nov. 3 Ulbyssey: * Politics, an eight-letter word, can lead men to strangeperversions. *Of our two sterling local examples, education minister Les Peterson and Vancouver MayorTom Campbell, the former is merely silly. *His attempt to have removed the word *fuck* from a shortstory in a high school textbook has guaranteed that the three high school students in B.C. who hadn'tpreviously seen or used the word have by now (a) looked it up, (b) used it at the dinner table and (c)remembered it forever as something special, which it obviously isn't. *Tom Terrific, on the other hand, is playing a far more dangerous game than merely using public office to exercise a quaint morality (another eight-letter word.) "Campbell has seized on a surefire publicity-getting, vote-holding policy. ^BanningGeorgia Straight and urging the lifting of Playboy from local news stands are nice, safe spurious issues,bound to be a smash with the little-old-lady vote (of which there is considerable, both sexes, all ages). *Campbell can, and quite likely will, indulge his perversion until next election, secure in the knowledge hecan remain otherwise inactive as mayor of a city that desperately needs serious, constructive action.** Vancouver citizens can draw little comfort from the knowledge that their city is â€” and for all itsleaders are doing, will continue to beâ€”in danger of disappearing in social decay and economicdepression.

The realquestion is I am weary of arguments. I am tired of having marihuana treated with white scientific glovesto prevent contamination with the basic issue of its use: the moral one. I've been saturated with theclaims that marihuana is "safe" and I've been logged with excuses that marihuana is used for "enhancing sensory experience." But I have yet to hear a substantive argument why marihuana is used in the firstplace. I oppose marihuanaâ€”and relaxation of the laws controlling itâ€”because I believe it isunnecessary. Call my reason anti-hedonism, if you will, but I cannot accept the human waste of time,talent and money which is inevitably involved in its use. Marihuana glorifies man's self-centered-ness, not God. My view is that marihuana use is a symptom of a sick society which wants to pursue selfishpleasure. It is a facet of a basic ill of this world, a problem which has resulted in wars, poverty anddistrust. You can quibble on both sides of the medical question of marihuana. There's enough evidenceby "qualified personnel" for both sides to play with. It's like driving â€¢ â€¢ â€¢ A personal statemenf acar down a highway at 100 miles an hour. Some will get hurt badly doing it; others won't. Decide whosetestimony you take. This was the intent of last week's article. It was written to show that there are atleast two sides to the question, and to balance the ad which appeared. The material was not directedagainst any of the ad's signatories. In writing both that article and this editorial, I tried to look at the totalscope of the marihuana issue as I have heard it for the past year. I tried to look at the inevitable result ofrelaxation of laws prohibiting its use: legalization. Marihuana could get bigger if we permitted it,likepoverty and the present war did. And I can't see promoting another societal ill. But let me make onepoint clear. I don't want to be considered the spokesman for the "other side." This is only where I stand.There are many other reasons why marihuana is opposed. Approximately 90 per cent of the facultyand administrators on this campus did not sign the ad. I'd like them to tell why. â€”Jeanne DoeringLetters to Editor Didn't like editorial Editor: I feel compelled to tell you that you are putting out a mightyfine rag this year. (However) for a newspaper which prides itself in taking an intellectual approach to theproblems of the day, it is truly confusing when your managing editor relies on anti-intellectual,reactionary arguments. Last week's editorial, as a case in point, literally flew in the face of volumes of scientific and sociological evidence which your managing editor dismissed as "pure hedonism."From Miss Doering's arguments it would seem that the use of cannabis sativa leads directly tomurder, insanity and yes, even death. Yet it is a known fact that as many as a thousand students atWestern have used it and these things do not happen to them. All I ask is that Miss Doering examinenot what is happening in outdated medical journals but look at life as it really is. To use an overworkedcliche, "get in touch with reality." Perhaps the shallowness of Miss Doering's arguments can berevealed when her editorial states that "personality changes after Marijuana use include . . .

We want to thank you for helping us beat Richmond 33-3. TheRugby Club Advice for cheerleaders Editor: Much has been said about the lack of school spirit and pride at Western. After viewing the performances of the cheerleaders at past games, and in particularthe Homecoming game, we feel that we have stumbled upon a major contributing factor to this lack.How can students be expected to exhibit any enthusiasm when the cheerleaders themselvesbehave in such an asinine manner? We shutter to think that these girls will be our representativesthroughout another athletic season if they continue to perform as they did at the Homecoming game.We are speaking specifically of their lack of awareness and attention to the events of the game beingplayed. For example, what response can they possibly expect when yelling for a touchdown while theopposing team had the ball? In addition, they might improve upon their effectiveness by working toestablish more unity in their routines rather than bouncing around like a pack of "teenie boppers." Wesincerely hope that the girls will accept this as constructive criticism. If they were to turn over a newleaf, they might discover, on the other side, some of the student enthusiasm that has been lacking up to this point. We feel that if they would utilize their potential they could become representativesWestern would be proud of.

The law should be changed. It isobviously not accomplishing its purpose. The use of marihuana is spreading. It would seem that eithera change in the law or a sophisticated attempt to change attitudes toward marihuana would be amuch more effective method of limiting its use. I see no reason why marihuana smokers should bepunished and cigarette smokersnot. Though, as Miss Doering pointed out in her editorial,marihuana smoking can have harmful physical effects, I question whether they are as harmful as(Continued on Page 5) President Flora supports free expression While I have never used and do notcondone the use of marijuana, I believe the laws concerning this and other drugs are valid subjects forinquiry. This college is concerned that the spirit of free inquiry be enhanced in its students and faculty. Any law in the land is an appropriate subject for debate, dialogue, or discussion, either orally or inwriting. The advertisement under question is, in my view, compatible with the spirit of free inquiry. vXlnthe meantime, there are laws governing the use of marijuana and other drugs and there are regulations on this campus. These laws and regulations will be enforced and the fact that they or some part thereofmay be under debate is irrelevant. The debate becomes relevant to enforcement only when and if the laws and regulations are changed by the government or ameliorated by the courts. vMy chief personalconcern with a given oral or written discourse is not the subject matter as such (though the mores of oursociety may at some point decree otherwise) but rather its delivery. The discourse must beresponsible; by this I mean that the authors must attempt to present accurate, factual commentary. Anyovert attempt to distort or conceal or through ignorance allow a mis-statement to appear isirresponsible. Such cannot be acceptable in any formal discourse in this college. *ln the case of theWestern Front marijuana ad, I am convinced that its authors have made every effort to write a responsible statement in a valid area of inquiry.

Pleasure and nothing else has become the goal of its young people. I realize that many people smoking marihuana are in revolt against this society. I Letters to Editor would arguethat this is aneg* ativistic revolt against something but for nothing. Marihuana is no substitute forpositive values. I agree with these people that our society needs some drastic changes, but thesechanges will only come about because people are willing to devote their time, energies, and lives toeffecting them.

Reg Butler Chairman of S(N)CCWestern Front S Letter rebuts last week's editorial stand Dear Editor: In the last issue of the Western Front there appears a long editorial, "Marihauna Not Safe," signed by the managing editor. That piecebegins with the rhetorical question, "Marihuana safe?" and then goes on to assert categorically that"the record says otherwise" and that this record "is being ignored by a small number of highly articulatespokesmen, who attempt to justify marihuana usage with an aura of intellectual-ism." On the final pageof that issue is printed a full-page ad, which is concerned with law as it currently applies to marihuana. Since the editors have seen fit to deal with this ad, both through a front-page, bold-face disclaimer, andvia yet another editorial statement, I think it is not unreasonable to suppose that Miss Doering's editorial also has more than a merely coincidental relationship to that ad. In any case, the following pointsshould be made clear: a) The ad does not assert that marihuana is "safe," or "medically safe," or thatit is a "benevolent herb," and the argument offered there in no way hangs on such a premise. b) If theclaim that "the record is being ignored . . . an aura of intellectualism," is a reference to the signers of the ad â€” which it apparently is â€” it should be pointed out that the purpose of the ad, as indicated by the"Four Points" which conclude it, is not "justify the use of marihuana," but to effect a change in thepresent laws. Furthermore, the method employed consists in presenting reasons, and in citingrelevant statements that have been made by other persons whose professional credentials justify atleast an initial presumption of competence in this area. If this kind of procedure constitutes anunacceptable "intellectualism" in the eyes of the managing editor, then one wonders what sort ofprocedure she would regard as acceptable. I will try to offer a clue on this point in a moment. Finally, if the intended reference was not to the signers of last Tuesday's ad, then the failure to make thisperfectly clear to your readers was in uncommonly poor taste. The basic claim of the editorial isthat the "spokesmen" are either ignorant of the facts, or are distorting the facts, or are not presentingsome of the most important facts. To establish this claim, the editor cites: 1) The findings of Dr. Mir as,allegedly reported in September at UCLA. 2) a New York County Medical Society report, "TheDangerous Drug Problem." 3) a report by Dr. Keller "at a recent meeting of the American PsychiatricAssociation." 4) an article by Dr. Louria "in an August issue of the 'New York Times Magazine'." 5) "The 1965 report on Drug Dependence for the World Health Organization." With respect to item (4) "CoolTalk about Hot Drugs," 6 August 67), the following remarks are pertinent: First, the statement by Dr.Louria that "the arguments for legalization of marihuana are based on pure hedonism â€” the proponentswant the legal right to use the drug because it gives them pleasure" is simply false, whether by"legalization" he means removal of all restrictions (as he apparently does, and as the signers of the ad and most other proponents of changing the present laws, do not), or merely the removal ofpenalties for individual possession or use. The ad is itself an example of an argument which does nothave such a basis. Second, his claim that "the proponents . . . rely on the argument that marihuana is no more dangerous than alcohol" is also false. Comparison of marihuana with alcohol is indeed relevant, but I do not know of any responsible "proponent" whose argument depends upon such comparison.Dr. Louria is certainly correct in insisting that "the major criterion . . . should not be a comparison with the dangers of alcohol, but rather the inherent dangers in indiscriminate use of the drug"; but thisview is not one with which most "proponents" disagree. And the replies to his query, "If marihuanawere to be legalized . . . why should not amphetamines, cocaine and heroin . . . " must surely beobvious to the questioner. For example, heroin is physically addictive, while marihauna in the near-unanimous opinion of researchers, is not. Third, Dr. Louria's reference to the "La Guardia Report" needsto be examined. He says that proponents often quote this document, but that they do not cite thatsection which records that 8 or 9 of the subjects in one group "developed acute pys-choses when givenmarihuana experimentally." The adjective "acute" here" is Dr. Louria's, not the Report's. The Reportrefers to the case described below, for example, as "a mild pychotic reaction." He goes on to quote theReport: one subject smoked one cigarette and became restless, dizzy, fearful of his surroundings,afraid of death, and had three short attacks of unconsciousness." "That," he concluded, "is not mydefinition of an entirely safe drug. *' We might notice first that Dr. Louria's "quote" from the Report is notentirely accurate â€” it joins two words from near the beginning of one sentence, with the bulk of thefollowing sentence, omitting (without any indication) the original author's remark about the uniqueness of this particular case. This qualification becomes especially significant in the light of additional factsabout this case contained in the Report â€” in particular, that the subject had a history of epilepticattacks. The Report concludes that these psychotic episodes were probably more related to theepilepsy than to the marihuana. Viewed in this light, this case (and the other eight, when examinedmore fully) is not embarrassing to the "proponents" rather, Dr. Louria's selective presentation of thesecases may raise some question about his own objectivity. Let me also note, as he does not, that theepileptic discussed above was a non-user of marihuana, who was brought into the study. Since MissDoering presumes to set her readers straight about the "facts," one must suppose that she has studiedthe "La Guardia Report," which is a basic document in this discussion. And surely, as a carefulresearcher, she must have checked Dr. Louria's statements against the Report itself. And one must then wonder why she decided, like Dr. Louria, to omit this very pertinent data from her presentation. Further, I wonder why she neglects to tell her readers that in spite of Dr. Louria's flat opposition to "legalization"of marihuana (by legalization he seems to mean the removal of all restrictions whatsoever), the positionwhich Louria takes at the end of his article is not radically different from the position expressed by thesigners of last Tuesday's ad. He agrees that present laws, which fail to distinguish between marihuanaand heroin, are too severe. And he suggests that "a realistic penalty for, say, a college student caughtwith marihuana. I am against their smoking it, but I do not think we should over react." As for the otherfour researchers and reports cited by the editor, I was unable to locate them in the college library. Ithan contacted the writer of the editorial and inquired where they could be found. From this conversation, the following information emerged: 1) The writer of the editorial had not read Dr. Miras's report; shedid claim to have read a news release, which was at her home, and not available for me to check.Typewriter and Adding Machine Sales, Service and Rentals Wr carry all niakrs of portables ami used machines.

This editor has attempted to create the impression that she is inpossession of, and is stating forthrightly, "facts" which certain other people either do not have or arenot willing to present fully. The incredible shallowness of the "research" which served as a basis for thiseditorial (a few news releases and, perhaps, a Sunday supplement) exposes the hyprocrisy of thewriter's suggestions regarding the argument of that "small number of highly articulate spokesmen."This is especially disappointing in a college newspaper; it is precisely this kind of thoroughlyirresponsible journalism which has created the morass of misinformation that presently plagues anyserious discussion of the marihuana issue.

Campus poet writes poem for Vietnam section Bill Savage, a senior English major, haspublished several poems in campus magazines the past year and is one of the busiest student poets atWestern. This is a poem he submitted especially to open our Vietnam Section. VIETNAM And whenit stops we will start again. We will feel the noise of trees and see beyond steel. We will pull our hearts out of howitzers and dust them off. Maybe they will still work without uniforms. And the hills we haveshelled will push up small green, sproutning and maybe we will help. No promises they have beenblown away like my Sergeant's legs. He walks now only in dreams but he dreams. And when it stopswe will see beyond slogans and maybe become what words no longer explain. Then how simple itwould be to be. Bill Savage English Senior grief; help us to turn them out roofless with their littlechildren to wander unfriended the wastes of their desolated land in rags and hunger and thirst, sports ofthe sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken inspirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it â€” for our sakes who adore Thee, Lord, blast their hopes, blighttheir lives, protract their bitter pilgrimage, make heavy their steps, water their way with their tears, stainthe white snow with the blood of their wounded feet: *We ask it, in the spirit of love, of Him Who is theSource of Love, and Who is the ever-faithful refuge and friend of all that are sore, beset and seek His aidwith humble and contrite hearts." WSP founder to speak on Vietnam trip By WAYNE LEE ContributorMrs. Dagmar Wilson, founder of the Women's Strike for Peace (WSP) movement, will speak about herrecent trip to North Vietnam at 7:30 p.m. Monday in L-3. Since 1961 the Georgetown housewife, artist,and mother of three has travelled extensively, donating most of her time to the WSP. During her stay inHanoi, she and her two WSP colleagues talked with North Vietnamese women and the NationalLiberation Front of South Vietnam. She believes such trips are "necessary to promoteunderstanding amongst women all over the world," so that their efforts to secure their common goalsof peace and preservation of life are met. Dr. Edward Shaffer, economics department, and ScottWicklund, head of the Students for Peace in Vietnam, were instrumental in bringing Mrs. Wilson toWestern.

KEITH MURRAY y â€¢ ^^"^^mmm^^^m Samuel Spinak, member of the under Rostal,Temianka a Professor of History In these days of wars and rumors of wars it is pleasant to rememberthat the Northwest's only international war resulted in just one death. Even the unfortunate victimturned out to be a modest sacrifice on the altar of rampant nationalismâ€” a nondescript pig. Thisunwilling but available blood offering to the gods of war is remembered in local history by the name givento the encounter, The Pig War. The affair started as an international misunderstanding based onignorance of the water boundary between Vancouver Island and the mainland of northern Puget Sound. The ambassadors who drafted the Treaty of 1846 thought there was a single channel running throughthe San Juan Islands, and that everyone knew where it ran. Everyone did not. No one did. There are over 150 islands. There are many channels but two main ones â€” Rosario, between Orcas and LummiIslands, and de Haro^west of San Juan island. The Hudson's Bay Company on Vancouver Islandplaced sheep on San Juan Island â€” a no-man's land, east of de Haro Strait but west of Rosario â€” inthe 1840's. No one cared until after the Fraser River gold rush when some disappointed Americanminers settled on San Juan and began to farm. The Hudson's Bay Company agent ordered them off astrespassers. In retaliation one of the Americans shot the pig owned by the agent. Threats and coun-terthreats were exchanged. Local military officials panicked and ordered troops to the scene. TheAmerican general in charge was a glory-hunter of the Custer type. A war would have enhanced his ownprestige, and accordingly he ordered Captain George Pickett of Fort Belling-ham to rush all availablesoldiers to San Juan prepared to re-enact the battle of Bunker Hill on the beaches of San Juan Island.Pickett landed with a company of men. Later he was Samuel Spinak, member of the string faculty atWashingtonState University, will present a viola recital at 4 p.m. Sunday, in the Viking Union Lounge.This program is being presented by the Department of Music as part oftheGuestFacul-ty RecitalSeries. Spinak, who is originally from London, England, has studied viola under Lionel Tertis andWilliam Primrose, and violin under Rostal, Temianka and William Reel. For eight years he wasprincipal viola in the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra under Sir Adrian Boult. For two years he was principal in the Scottish Orchestra under George Szell. He was also a member of the RoyalPhilharmonic Orchestra with Sir Thomas Beecham, with whom he toured America. This monument nowstands on San Juan Island as a reminder of the conflict in 1859 that resulted in the death of a pig.(Murray photo) Free Rain Shields Heaters Available Safari 7:30 11:30 Sept. 9:30 MOONLITE Fromthe adventure continent one of its most exciting tales!

Douglas of Vancouver Island reacted strongly to this invasion and ordered naval forces at Esquimau to take ap-propriate action to drive Pickett out. Fortunately the naval officers there stalled until wordcame from London several months later tostopbeingridiculous. In Washington, D.C gt;PresiÂ« dentBuchanan's cabinet and the Chief of Staff, General Winfield Scott, took the same attitude. The killing ofthe pig and the ownership of the San Juan Islands were submitted to international arbitration. Nodamages were paid for the pig's demise. San Juan was awarded to the United States. From theAmerican standpoint this was a good compromise. The British didn't seem unduly disturbed, for thoseBritish subjects living on the island promptly declared American citizenship, and the dispute wasended.

Western hosted debaters Morethan 400 students, representing 44 high schools throughout the state, participated in an inter-highschool debate tournament on the Western campus Friday and Saturday.

The matches began after regis-ration Friday morning and end-id with final roundsSaturday vening. Competing for more than 40 rophies, individual students and earns rallied for positionin the inal rounds in categories including extemporaneous speak-ng, impromptu speeches, after iinner talks, oral interpretation nd team debates.

PHONE 734-5140 By DIANA TIMMAssociate News Editor Field trippers, 41 in number and biologists in heart, took a 3-day field trip by boat to the San Juan Islands recently. Working at night when tides were lowest, as well as during the day,they studied and collected marine life. Added to their work were ecological poetry, bagpipe music and home ec students' cooking. Dr. Bernard Weiner, a poet and assistant professor of political science,presented some of his own "ecological" poems and those of E. E. Cummings. A highland fling was given the trip by Dr. William Dickson, associate professor of political science, who played the bagpipes.Guitars and harmonicas also helped pace the ship's passage through the island channels. Homeeconomics students, supervised by Mrs. Mary Jane Ha-shisaki, cooked for the field trip. Mrs. BlanceLund, secretary for the biology department, was head cook. Many of the trippers were students inDr. Wallace Heath's Biology 301 class. This was the first time that a trip of this nature had been tried at Western since a suit-aoie boat has not been available for a large class. The biology crew made theirrounds in The Naiad II, a 71- foot pleasure craft owned by James Bolster and captained by TerryBuzzard. Leaving Friday afternoon, the field trippers anchored in Fossil Cove at Sucia Island thatevening. Friday and Saturday nights they searched for marine specimens, working until 2 a.m. when the tides were low. Rare specimens were preserved in the field; others were brought back for classstudy. Many went to the Lummi Island Marine laboratory for further research. On Saturday, Echo Baywas dredged, and that night the boat anchored off Stuart Island at Reid Harbor. Sunday afternoon, eightdivers explored the waters off the west tip of Spieden Island. Dozens of colorful species were brought tothe aquarium aboard the ship. Besides studying marine animals, people specialized in botony,mushrooms, shells, fossils, mammals and insects. Collected from the three islands were live deermice, rabbit remains and a mink's skeleton, but there were few other mammal signs. Dr. Heath believed that the field study was multi-dimensional in mat individuals were able to directly experience plant and animal communities in their natural surroundings. "Perceptions of the interaction of living things withtheir environments is one of the most important experiences that an ecologist seeks," he said. Headded that Western has a more advantageous location for marine work than nearly any other college,due to the local variety of marine organisms from many kinds of habitats. He was encouraged by theenthusiasm shown during the field trip, saying "The students have shown an exceptional response interms of interest and ability to appreciate field experience." Heath wants this kind of study made aregular part of the undergraduate course work in marine biology. "An undergraduate marine biologyprogram is being built at Western," Dr. Heath said. "Two pillars of the program, a functioning marinelaboratory and access to a suitable ship, are now realities."

But now it's unsafe," said DennisCatrell, speech instructor. Catrell, who is also Western Players technical director, said the leaky wallsand roof in the scene shop, which is located in the boiler room of Sehome Manor, make usingelectrical equipment hazardous. "Everytime it rains outside, it just seems to rain inside, too," saidCatrell. "Frequently there are large puddles of water on the floor." He said that most of the sets for"J.B." and other scenery normally constructed in the scene shop had to be built on the stage because of the hazards in running power tools. There are transportation and accessibility problems with thepresent facilities, according to Catrell. Students have a 6-block walk to the shop in the old St. Joseph'sHospital* "Someday I hope we have a modern complex; with the shop next to the theatre, with adequate floor space and with full shop facilities," added Catrell.

The Savages, sixth ranked NAIAfootball team, saw a 19-7 half time lead disappear when the Vikings scored touchdowns in the third andfourth quarters but a last minute drive saved the Savages' 14 game winning string. The loss gave theVikings a 3-6 season record under head coach Fred Emerson this season. Eastern got on thescoreboard first when Ray Stookey ran two yards for a touchdown. The score was set up by a pass play from Diedrick to end Dave Svendsen. The attempt for the conversion failed. Late in the first period ofplay, Western's offense was stopped after Pat Brewin had completed a 61-yard pass to Gary Aagaard.Eastern took over possession of the ball on the Savage five yard line. On the first down play, MontyMontgomery tackled Diedrick on the two yard line. Stookey carried the ball on the next play and when Steve Gregorich of Western caused Stookey to fumble, defensive-end Dave Weed-man smothered the ball in the Eastern end zone for a touchdown. Neil Combelic added the extra point, to put the Vikings ahead 7-6. Eastern came back strong in the second period scoring two touchdowns. All-Conference-end Dave Svendsen caught a 47-yard aerial from Diedrick for the first score of the quarter. Ed Doran addedthe point after touchdown. After recovering Western's fumble on the Viking 27 yard line, Ed Pohlescored on a two yard run. Doran's conversion attempt missed, giving the Savages a 19-7 advantage athalf-time. Bob Unick blocked a Savage punt and Al Divina leaped onto the ball, to give the Vikingspossession of the ball deep into Savage territory in the third quarter. The drive bogged down on theEastern three yard line, giving the Savages the ball. On the first down Diedrick's pass was intercepted by Vic Randall. Randall then went 14 yards to score for the Vikings, and again Combelic booted the pointafter touchdown. Using a shot-gun offense, the Vikings were able to move the ball to the Eastern 27 yard line. Russ Lee carried the ball down to the one yard line on the next play. Brewin scored on aquarterback sneak, and Combelic again kicked the extra point Diedrick had only three minutes tomove his team down field. Ed Pohle scored on a 25-yard pass play from Diedrick to put Eastern back infront. Doran booted the extra point, making the score 26-21. Al Anderson carried the ball 30 times for 95 yards, boosting his season total to 640 yards. Brewin completed seven of 12 passes for 127 yards, that gave Brewin 598 yards passing for the season. Ruggers scour Richmond After four early-seasonlosses, Western's Rugby team finally worked as a complete unit and demolished Richmond 33-3,Saturday at Roosevelt Park. Western's scrum initiated the scoring in the opening minutes by packingthe ball deep into Richmond territory, setting up a successful penalty kick by Al Needier. The scrum,consisting of eight players, is comparable to the offensive line in football. Ed Plensky followed shortlywith Western's first try, and from men on Richmond was practically run off the field. Eight playersscored for Western, as the Viks score was more than double the points of their first four gamescombined. Leading the scoring was scrum-half Al Needier, with 12 on one try, a penalty kick and threeconversions. A try is worth three points, a penalty kick is worth three and conversions tally two points.Besides Needier and Plensky, other scorers were: George Anderson, Mike Fowler, Pete Wilde,JimNoonan, Bob Plotts and Doug Wygard. Besides the scrum, Paul Bar-stead and Larry Willman alsobroke away for runs that eventually set up Western scores. Willman was shaken up by a crunchingtackle after breaking away to inside the Richmond 25 yard line. The visitors only score came at thebeginning of the second half on a penalty kick from about 20 yards out. Richmond could never threatenagain as Western added 14 more points to their 19-3 lead.

(Photo by Eagle e.t.)Hearings on proposed changes in the generated* ucation program will be held starting tonight and running through next Wednesday. They will all begin at 7 p.m. in Room 142 of Old Main. Tonight's subject willbe requirements in the natural sciences. Tomorrow night, the math, philosophy, foreign language andphysical education departments will review changes. Other hearings will be social sciences,Thursday; humanities, next Tuesday; and communications, next Wednesday. The hearings havebeen called in conjunction with a report by the Committee on Liberal Education (COLE), submitted tothe Academic Council the end of last quarter. During the sessions'each department will be examiningthe feasibility of general education options outlined in the COLE report, said Dr. Laurence Brewster,chairman of the General Education Committee. Two options are proposed in the report for naturalsciences. One calls for a four-quarter sequence in physics, chemistry, biology and geology, with waiver considerations. The other option specifies a multi-course specialization in one of die four sciences.Introductory courses in math or philosophy are proposed in the math-logic option. The social scienceshave options in three areas. One is the present behavioral science course or introductory courses inpsychology and sociology-anthropology. Another offers a choice between the present General Education200 and two courses from economics, geography, or political science. Study of non-Western cultureswould be covered by increasing General Education 321 to five credits, or by taking specified courses in geography, history, political science and sociology-anthropology. The humanities options includeretaining General Education 121, 122 and 123 but with acred-it reduction, or taking specified coursesrepresenting history, literature, philosophy, and art or music. The communications requirementproposal is to retain Speech 100, with waiver considerations, and to require from zero to two quartersEnglish on the basis of scores on the Washington Pre- College Tests. The COLE report approves theforeign language requirement for the 1973 graduating class, which was passed by the AcademicCouncil on Oct. 25. The report also proposes that physical education not be a general educationrequirement. The COLE proposals would make the general education package as little as 40 credits, oras much as 78 credits, depending on options and waivers.

Vol. LX, No. 12 Tuesday, Jan. 9,1968 1 0C it's the hole problem Klipsun editor quits; Quarterly to be late Troubled by deadlines, complicated by the editor's resignation and a change of staff rooms, the fall Klipsun Quarterly will be delayed indistribution, according to Ann Morten-son, newly-appointed Klipsun editor. Miss Mortens on wasunsure what date the publication would be ready. About half the pages were completed this week. MissMortens on was named to the position Thursday by the Publications Committee. She replaced JimFoltz, a graduate student and English teaching assistant, who forfeited the editorship by not enrollingthis quarter. The Klipsun staff also exchanged rooms last week with the Activities Commission,located across the hall. The Commission had requested the move to the larger Klipsun office. Thefall Quarterly will be a paperbound edition of 40 pages. Miss Mortens on said. "We hope the studentswill accept it since it will be entirely different," she commented. Klipsun staff members besidesMiss Mortens on are Lynn Brittingham, secretary and Larry Adams, photographer. UW okays limitedpass-fail grade system for fall University1 of Washington begins the controversial "pass* fail" gradingsystem on a limited basis next autumn quarter, Dr. Solomon Katz, vice president for academicaffairs, said last Monday. Katz said the pass-fail system, intended to encourage students to takecourses outside their major field of interest without harming their grade-point average, will be limited tospecified courses and will be implemented by all colleges in the university. The system is much like that used in m a n y elementary schools, where a student receives a mark of either "pass" of "fail," rather than a letter grade. Katz said the university also will continue to expand its closed circuit televisioncapabilities, moving the system into new areas of study such as music, dance and physical education.Nearly 6,000 will register winter term Registration winter quarter would be close to 6,000, RegistrarWilliam J. O'Neill predict- - ed last week. O'Neil last week reported that 5,742 day students had enrolled for winter quarter, but that the number would rise until registration is completed today. The drop inenrollment from fall quarter's 6,000 day students ' s not expected to exceed the usual 250 to 300students, he said. Progress has bogged on the Klipsun Quarterly with the editor resigning and the staffmoving into a new room. New editor Ann Mortenson is working to get the magazine out as soon aspossible.

TERRY JEWELER 'WHERE JEWELRY IS OUR BUSINESS" 1326 Cornwall ---------- Western Front - 1968 January 9 - Page 3 ---------- charged with violating draft laws BOSTON (CPS) â€” A Federal grand jury here this week charged fivemen, including Yale University Chaplain William Sloane Coffin and pediatrician Dr. Benjamin Spock, with counseling young people to violate the Selective Service Act. A Federal grand jury has not returnedsuch an indictment since December, 1954. Both Coffin and Spock have participated in numerousdemonstrations against the Vietnam war and the draft and have encouraged young people andstudents to resist the draft. Others indicted were Michael Fer-ber, a 23-year-old Harvard graduate student, author Mitchell Goodman, 44, and Marcus Raskin, 33, co-director of the Institute for Policy Studies. If convicted, the five face a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a $10,000 fine. Theindictments said the five men "did unlawfully, willfully, and knowingly counsel, aid, and abet diverseSelective Service regi strains to unlawfully, knowingly, and willfully neglect, fail, refuse, and evadeservice in the armed forces of the United States." Department of Justice officials offered no commentwhen asked if government attorneys will seek more indictments a-gainst persons who encourage draftresistence. The last person to be indicted for counseling Selective Service registrants to evade thedraft was Mrs. Lucille Miller of Vermont in December, 1954. She was convicted of the charge and given a one-year suspended sentence and was placed on probation for five years. Emeritus faculty memberdies Thomas F. Hunt, associate professor emeritus of geography at Western until 1952, died Dec.15, 1967. Hunt was a professor here for 37 years. Western's flag was flown at half-mast in Hunt's honorbefore his funeral. Shivering Nash men heated up over cold Tuesday, January 9, 1968 Western Front 3By RICH O'BRIEN FRONT Staff Cold rooms have plagued the top floor of Western's newest residencehall, Nash, since it opened this fall. The radiant hot water heating units have failed to provide enoughheat. Although one large heating unit in the hall works, the units in individual student rooms don't.Temperatures dropped to below 60 degrees on cold days in many rooms, forcing students to bundleup when they wanted to study in their own rooms. The housing department, ask-ed repeatedly to dosomething about the cold, called in a plumber regularly, but he was unable to get any more heat out of the units. The plumber told students that the heating system on the top floor was already working at full capacity. Because they couldn't bear to be in their rooms, some students at the east end of the floor staged a sit-in on the carpeted hall outside their rooms last quarter. Workmen spent nearly every dayof the Christmas vacation trying to remedy the problem, but at least one student came back to schoolwith his own heater.

The law, which was effective Jan. 1,provides for centralized filing of marriage certificates with the State Department of Health, as has beendone for years with birth certificates. But it also requires that the person performing the marriageceremony fill out a form of confidential information about the couple. Blanks are provided for showing the race of the bride and groom, the number of previous marriages and how those marriages ended, andthe amount of education acquired by the bride and groom. The clergy are complaining that the law is inconflict with the first and fourth amendments to the U.S. Constitution regarding separation of churchand state. They are also challenging the legality of the blank for the race of the married couple, on thegrounds it violates a 1955 law prohibiting race on Washington state forms. Moreover, the law threatensto strip the clergy of part of their rights, that of respecting the privacy of the persons they serve.â€”Jeanne Doering. Thanks . . .

Need pond cleaned Editor: Our student leaders resemble a small gathering of thwarted sheepherders attempt ing to arouse and encourage a flock of unwoolen sheep to take drinkfrom a pond that the administration has urinated in. The administration has given credence to suchthings as "IX) IT" buttons when the name really should be "DO IT OUR WAY" buttons. I believe thatevery human being inherently possesses an incredible curiousity and an electrifying initiative. Whatremains of it, however, after it has been flushed through the stultifying bowels of Old Main as well as the entire doldrum of the educational continuum is suffocating if not intimidating. Creativity and initiativewill permeate every facet of this campus if it is given its right to be really heard and permit-ted to dowhat it really so desires â€” freak, fancy, or civil..

A poll to discern student opinion on the possible establishment of aReserveOfficers Training Corps program on campus will be taken next week. Sponsored by the Student AdvisoryBoard (SAAB), the poll will be used to determine if substantial support exists for ROTC-The AcademicCouncil voted unanimously last Tuesday to table the matter of a department of military science until theywere "presented with evidence of substantial support for such an addition to the college curriculum from draft-eligible students and the faculty." Their decision came after a study presented by the ROTC studycommittee. The group â€” composed of SAAB members, History Department Chairman Dr. KeithMurrary and Dean of Men C. W. McDonald â€” had been gathering information since October on what a ROTC program would involve for Western. The ROTC consideration stems from a Department ofDefense reply to Western's letter sent in 1950 applying for this program. Were an ROTC program tocome to Western, a department of military science would be established. It would be headed by acommanding professor appointed by the Army, with subordinate personnel of Army instructors, clerks,and a storekeeper. Staff size would depend on the number of students in the ROTC program. Thecommanding professor would have the power to place his instructors on faculty committees whoserecommendations would directly affect the military science department. There are two major questionsabout establishing ROTC at Western, according to Interim Academic Dean p. D. Brown. One is thepractical consideration for students who could gain draft deferment, tuition aid and an Army officercommission through participation. . . . . . . The other question, said Brown is whether militarytraining is an appropriate part of college offerings. In line with this is the Mershon Report by Ohio StateUniversity, which says that acquis-tion of skills (such as map-reading and drilling) are contradictory to the concept of education of free and logical inquiry found in other disciplines. Western is the only one ofthe five state-supported institutions of higher learning without an ROTC program. Seattle University, aprivate college, also has the program.

PHQNE 734-5140 Whitworth lumped off to an early lead Saturday, andnever gave the Viks a chance to get close. Two'second half rallies brought Western fans to their feet,but the margin was too great to overcome. Lack of punch from the field can be partially attributed totheloss of Paul Hallgrimson, the team's number two scorer, who was hobbling on the sidelines with aninfected foot. Another thorn in the side was Frank Insell, the Pirates 5'9" guard who poured in 25 pointsfrom all angles on the court, Insell, who led all scorers, was followed by teammate Dave Rhodes with 19, and the Viks' Gary Reiersgard and Mike Clayton with 18 and 16. The Viks got off to a slow start inFriday night's game too, but phenomenal shooting in the second half was too much for Whitworth. PaulHallgrimson and Ed Monk accounted for 24 points between them asWest-ern hit 15 of 19 from thefield. Sophomore guard Mike Clayton was the top scorer for the Viks with 16 points; Monk had 14,Hallgrimson 13 and Reiersgard 12 to give strong support. During Christmas vacation Western visitedCalifornia and brought back with them three victories including the championship of the HolidayTourney at the University of California at Davis. The Viks opened the tournament by trouncingSonoma State 74-54 and the next night out-shot the University of California at Riverside 93-83. In thechampionship game Western rallied in the second half to decision the host team, University of Californiaat Davis, 63-59. Mike Clayton, the Vik's leading scorer was named tothe all-tournament first team.

SPC has been a particular nemesis to the Chuck RandalL Viks,winning five of the last seven games since 1965. This year the Falcons are off to a slow start with only a4-5 record, compared to Western's impressive 9-1 mark. Coach Les Habbegger'steam has playedsome tough competition in the early season, and is just returning from two close high-scoring lossesto Eastern Montana in Billings. Two Falconsj Western will have to tie down are Evert Sutfin, of Renton'sstate AA champs in 1966, and Darwin Cambell, a flashy ball handler from Garfield in Seattle. TheVikings, on the other hand are hoping to be at full strength, if number two scorer Paul Hallgrimson hasrecovered from a foot infection and Mike Dahl, team captain, is over a bout with the flu, which slowedhim down last weekend. Tonight is Western's last home game until Jan. 26 when Central comes to town for two games. This weekend the Viks travel to Eastern for two games with the Savages. Last weekendCentral trounced Eastern 99-58. The Viks also visit the University of Puget Sound and meet Seattle Pacific again, in Seattle, before returning home.

I'll bet you are, you scamp!But I am not one to be harsh with those who forgot we are in a new year, for I myself have long beenguilty of the same lapse. In fact, in my senior year at college, I wrote 1873 on my papers until nearlyNovember of 1874!. (It turned out, incidentally, not to be such a serious error because, as we all know,1874 was later repealed by President Chester A. Arthur in a fit of pique over the Black Tom Explosion.And, as we all know, Mr. Arthur later came to regret his hasty action. Who does not recall that famousmeeting between Mr. Arthur and Louis Napoleon when Mr. Arthur said, "Lou, I wish I hadn't of repealed1874!' Whereupon the French emperor made his immortal rejoinder, "Tipi que nous et tyler tu". Well sir,they had many a good laugh about that, as you can imagine.) But I digress. How can we remember towrite 1968 on our papers and letters? Well sir, the best way is to find something memorable about 1968,something unique to fix it firmly in your mind. Happily, this is very simple because, as we all know,1968 is the first year in history that is divisible by 2, by 5, and by 7. Take a pencil and t ry i t: 1968divided by 2 is 984; 1968 divided by 5 is 393%; 1968 divided by 7 is 281#. This mathematical curiosity will not occur again until the year 2079, but we will all be so busy then celebrating the Chester A. Arthur bi-centenerary that we will scarcely have time to be writing papers and letters and like that. m m\$ gt;Â»)^3Wv Another clever little trick to fix the year 1968 in your mind is to remember that 1968spelled backwards is 8691. "Year" spelled backwards is "raey" "Personna" spelled backwards is"Annosrep" I mention Personna because I am paid to write this column by the makers of Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades, and they are inclined to withhold my check if I omit to mention their product.Not, mind you, that it is any chore for me to sing the praises of Personna, for it is a seemly blade thatshaves you cleanly, a gleaming blade that leaves you beaming, a trouble-free blade that leaves youstubble-free, a matchless blade that leaves you scratchless. If you are tired of facial slump, if you arefed up with jowl blight, try Personna today... available both in double-edge style and Injector style. And if I seem a bit excessive in my admiration for Personna, I ask you to remember that to me Personna ismore than a razor blade; it is also an employer. But I digress. We were speaking of the memorableaspects of 1968 and high among them, of course, is the fact that in 1968 the entire House ofRepresentatives stands for election. There will, no doubt, be many lively and interesting contests, butnone, I'll wager, quite so lively and interesting as the one in my own district where the leadingcandidate is none other than Chester A. Arthur! Mr. Arthur, incidentally, is not the first ex-president tocome out of retirement and run for the House of Representatives. John Quincy Adams was the first. Mr.Adams also holds another distinction: he was the first son of a president ever to serve as president. It istrue that Martin Van Buren's son, Walter "Blinky" Van Buren, was at one time offered the nomination forthe presidency, but he, alas, had already accepted a bid to become Mad Ludwig of Bavaria. James K.Polk's son, on the other hand, became Salmon P. Chase. Millard Fillmore's son went into aluminumsiding. This later became known as the Missouri Compromise. * # * Â© 1968.

Two thousand, mob-strong yet painfullyimmobile, brought together by the death of a Black man 2,500 miles away, in Memphis. Tenn, Why?What did the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King have to do with Western's student body andfaculty? What significance did that act of civil violence have, to cause the voluntary herding together ofa third of the Western community? Perhaps there is no single answer to these questions. Eventhose who participated in the plaza vigil cannot explain why they did what they did. Some, no doubt,were there to pay tribute, in the only way they could, to a man they deeply admired. Others joined notso much to pay tribute as to register their anger at the act itself, the flagrant disregard for justiceand human dignity. Many remembered the similar violent death of John F. Kennedy. Some thought ofthe long hot summer to come, and perhaps toyed with the thought that this year's anarchy hasalready begun, and will not end until it has seared the length and breadth of the nation. But, whatevertheir reasons or lack of reasons, they came, enclosing the plaza fountain with a great circle of silenthumanity. Some joined hands; others stood with arms folded and heads bent to their chests; stillothers gazed straight ahead in erect defiance. A pallor of rustling silence crept over the gathering,noise was restricted to the jerk of hair from the face, the abrupt cough, the weight-shift of aching kneesand feet. The Rev. John Harriman of Campus Christian Ministry, speaking with a megaphone from thebalcony of Haggard Hall, called the crowd to silent prayer in memory of Dr. King. Some 75 yards away construction workers on the art building addition labored as usual, shouting directions, runningma-chineso In the science-math building figures gazed over the plaza crowd. Minutes later a strong femalevoice began to sing, "We shall overcome." and other joined. After two choruses of the protest songmade famous by King-led demonstrators, the construction crew stopped working and the silence wasabsolute. One said. "My God, they're going to be there all day." Another announced it was a quarterafter eleven, and as if by signal the crowd filed away â€” in unnerving silence. What was the meaning ofthis silent demonstration? In part it was tribute to a great man. It was a plea for the country, and Kingcritics joined with his admirers in the vigil. It was a silent cry against senseless destruction; anaffirmation of belief in peace and a disavowal of violence and anarchy. It was a plea for reformation rather than revolution, and in this sense it was the spirit of King. the western front Western Washington State College, Bellingham, Wash. 98225 Vol. LX No. 22 Tues., April 9, 1968 1 Oc AS candidates begincampaigns at convention Thursday night Campaigns for Associated Students positions will kick offThursday night during the two-night Nominating Convention. Activities both nights will start at 7 p.m. inthe VU lounge and end at about 10:30, Jon Murray, elections board chairman, said. Thursday, therewill be call to order of delegates and the keynote speech by comedian and Black Revolution leader Dick Gregory. Nominations will be received for Associated Women and Associated Men Studentspresidents, the five open Legi-lature seats, and AS president and vice-president. On Friday night, allcandidates will give acceptance speeches, and election for final candidates will be held. There can bethree AS puts clubs under Activities Commission The Associated Students Leg-islature approvedunanimously Thursday a bill subordinating officially recognized clubs and organizations undercommittees of the Activities Commission. The measure, a substitute bill drawn up by Greg Jones, willclassify the clubs according to purpose anct-function and require them to submit budgetary requeststhrough the five Activities Commission chairmen. Presently, (hey can make direct requests to the ASLegislature. Legislature Al Donaldson explained that the bill was designed to eliminate "the politicalpower plays encountered in the budgeting process." Before voting, legislators questioned whatprovision would be made for clubs formed midyear and not included in the original budget requests. As a result, they amended the bill to provide a separate budget allocation for new clubs. In otherbusiness, legislators acted on three constitutional amendments proposed by AS President DanFredrickson, but since they were not approved unanimously, the bills will go on the spring electionsballot. One change restructures the president's cabinet to include a new post, Director of PublicRelations. Another limits Legislature's approval of cabinet members to paid personnel. The thirdrestructures the Activities Commission, elminiating the evaluation and personnel committee.Fredrickson said he believed that committee shouldn't be included in the commission since it wasn'tinvolved in programming. Legislators also approved the appointment of Paul Lohnes to Director ofPublic Relations. He will be paid this quarter with unused funds from the AS secretary budget and thestudent emergency help fund. Speaker Terry Flanders announced that he had checked the creditload and grade-point average of legislators and had found all eligible. New bills introduced and sent tocommittee included one by Fredrickson, a constitutional amendment making the vice-president thespeaker of the legislature; and one by Al Donaldson, to exclude the Associated Men Students fromthe 1968-69 budgetary consideration. Legislators also decided to meet at 4 p.m. today, rather thanThursday because of conflicts with Dick Gregory's scheduled speech that afternoon. candidates each for the positions, including 15 for the five legislature seats. Some 371 delegates are registered for theconvention, according to Murray. This includes 163 off-campus and 208 on-campus persons. Non-delegates may also attend, although they will not be entitled to sit in the delegate sections, Murraysaid. Klipsun coming Editor Ann Mortenson said the winter Klipsun Quarterly will be available nextTuesdav or Wednesday. The publication will be distributed in the Klipsun office in the Viking Unionbasement. Approximately 2,000 people bowed their heads to the memory of Dr. Martin Luther King at 11a.m. Friday in a quickly arranged silent tribute. Classes were later cancelled that afternoon by PresidentCharles J. Flora. (photo by Larry Adams) Sympathy, contusion follow LBJ's withdrawal College PressService Sympathy, confusion, suspicion and jubilation were ways students around the countrygreeted President Johnson's announcement that he would not seek another term as president. Therewere spontaneous anti- LBJ demonstrations on several campuses and in several large cities. In AnnArbor, Mich., beer and wine sales increased ten fold. But a CPS survey for 20 large campuses showeda feeling of sympathy for the President. In Chicago, a couple of groups of 150 students roamed thestreets. One group on the University of Chicago campus sang "ding, dong, the witch is dead," InBoston, about 3.000 people, most of them Boston University and Massachusetts Institute ofTechnology students, marched from Harvard Square tothe steps of the statehouse at about 2 a.m.Monday where they held a rally with speeches, chanting and singing. Michael Ferber, one of the fivemen indicted for counseling draft resistance, spoke to them. In Philadelphia about 1,000 University ofPennsylvania students marched to Independence Hall singing "God Bless America." Despite Johnson's withdrawal, his name will remain on the ballot of "Choice '68," the nation - wide collegepresidential primary being held here April 24. The directors of the project took Michigan Gov. Rom-neyoff the ballot when he withdrew from the race in February, but the ballots were already printed whenJohnson made his announcement.

Planners to present trustees with $24 million expansion plan A campus development planinvolving construction of eight or more buildings costing $24 million by 1985 probably will be presented to the Trustees at their April 24 meeting, Planning Director Harold Goltz said. The site, called theacademic reserve, is a 12-acre triangular plot southeast of the main campus, now occupied by parking lots, tennis courts and athletic fields. The plan includes most expansion needed to meet a projected 1985 enrollment of 15,000. It would add nearly a million square feet of space for academic,administrative and student activity uses. Included is a $3 million student activity center withswimming pool, bowling alleys and other recreational facilities, to be built in stages between nextyear and 1976. The cost estimates do not include an inflation factor, which will increase the final figureconsiderably, Goltz said. Goltz said the plan is only preliminary and is designed for maximumflexibility. He expects the college to continue to change its role as unanticipated demands are thrustupon it by a burgeoning state population. Although the construction schedule is still highly tentative,specific plans have been prepared for grading, installing an underground utility tunnel and placing roads,parking areas and walkways. A new road, East CampusWay. will be built from Hill Street the maincampus on Sehome Hill. Goltz said. An underpass will connect sidewalks with the cluster collegearea so pedestrians need cross no streets. Walking time across campus will be about 10 minutes,, hesaid. Building utilization will be designed so high - enrollment classes are held in buildings near thelibrary and campus center and buildings farther away would be used for more limited programs, such astechnology. The highest-density classes will be on the lowest floors to mimimize stair-climbing. OldMain will revert to classroom and faculty office use for social science departments when theadministration building is completed in 1978, Goltz said. He said the college will rely heavily upon thecluster college concept for a solution to the problem of rapid growth. There now are sites for six, he said. aU except Fairhaven southeast of the academic reserve. He s es a campus of eventually 200 acres, compared to the present 140.

"The technical experience of being editor of the school newspaper has been veryuseful to me," Dr. Tom Manney, editor of tile Western Collegian in 1955, said. Dr. Manney, whograduated from Western with a science major in 1958, is now employed by Case Western ReserveUniversity's microbiology department. He was at Western Wednesday for a talk on "Mendel'sContribution to Molecular Biology." "The need to communicate by writing is very important inscience," Dr. Manney said in an interview. Dr. Manney said when he attended Western the science department was in Old Main where the Home Economics department is now housed. "Most of myclasses had only five or six people in them," Dr. Manney said. "These small classes led to manylasting friendships." Dr. Manney said the type of student at Western has changed in the last tenyears. "When I graduated," he said, "only about 50 students received B.A. degrees. All of the otherdegrees were in Education. Now the concentration has turned to many other fields." When Dr.Manney was Collegian editor one of the hottest issues was "a constantly-losing footoall team." Dr.Manney feels the paper has improved. "It is much bigger," he said, "and the quality of the paper hasincreased greatly." Dr. Manney said one of the physical changes he noticed was the condition of OldMain's lawn. "That used to be sacred ground on which one did not walk. Now its unrecognizable," hesaid. Dr. Manney added he is "pleased to see that many things have not changed, and that thosethings changing are for the good."

"We are a group of younger people. It is our world, our time," Knight said. "We have reached the point in our human history where if we don't go beyond ourselves, we are going to lose our struggle." Knight called conservation "one of tiie most moral issues of our time" and "if we are going to stay aliveit is important we get with it." "There will be definite restrictions on this area if it becomes a national park," he said. "It will be developed to handle the most possible people and still preserve the naturalresources." Knight said if it is left as wilderness man will have to enter it on nature's terms."Conservationists don't have a bone to pick with anyone," he said. "They are just people who arelogically saying that this is a beautiful area and want to save it." Knight argued the proposed parkinvolves only about one per cent of all Cascades timberland. "Is it too much to ask to save so little fromdestruction?" he said. Man is using up the oxygen of the world faster than nature can resupply it,perhaps because so much of nature has been destroyed or disfigured, Knight said. "I think this is a very good cause, and something very worthwhile doing. If not for the preservation of beauty, then for thepreservation of life." "Sehome Hill is now a place to smoke pot, drink beer and to throw empty beercans," he said. "But someday it can be a beautiful park that everyone in the area will be oroud of." ---------- Western Front - 1968 April 9 - Page 3 ---------- City centers decay creates problems Professor York Wilbern likened file decay of our city centers tothe abandonment of worked out frontier farm land during an earlier period in our history. Author of "TheWithering Away of the City," he delivered the keynote address at the Northwest intergovernmentalconference here last week. The lowest economic segments of society gather in the city centers, he said, because "in the trickle down process this is the only place for them." Segregation of people byrace and class is represented by the difference between the antiseptic suburb and the slum citydwelling, Wilbern said. "Consciousness of a common identity and concern for a common destinyare disappearing along with the city which once provided these," he said. "Personal relations arereplaced by impersonal mass media." But the growth of education, health, police and other relatedservice areas of the economy, with their need for downtown office buildings, may mean the renaissanceof the city, according to Wilbern. "The cost of government will go up more rapidly man the income ofthe people as the need for services increases because productivity increases come much slower inthese areas," he said. Real wage increases, now advancing at an annual rate of three per cent, Wilbernsaid gt; will be chopped in half by increased taxation to provide necessary services.

Approximately 75 students in the VU lounge listened to the pacifist attackPresident Johnson, former Vice - President Richard Nixon, and Secretary of State Dean Rusk. The38-year-old critic of the Vietnam war accused the United States of imperialism. He cited past examplesof U.S. military intervention in foreign countries "not because the revolutions pose a threat to democracy, but because they pose a threat to our economic empire. * "Let's face it, we are an economic empire,reaching into every corner of the world. We do not physically control the governments of foreigncountries, but economically, we are as much an empire as Great Britain once was," he said. He citedas an example the vast economic investments the U.S. has in Latin America. Pointing his finger andpounding the podium, he declared, "We don't give a damn about their freedom. We only care about theirfreedom when our investments are at stake." "We could lose every investment in Latin Americatomorrow, and the monetary loss would not begin to approach the $100 billion we have committed tothe war in Vietnam," he said. McReynolds, who admits being a Marxist, said that we are losing miswar on two fronts. "We are committed to a war we cannot justify, and we are losing. We are alsolosing at home because we are unable to rid the nation of its slums and ghettos," he said. He saidthat if the $100 billion in Vietnam was used in the U.S. WE'RE NOT EXPENSIVE ..

He said the only difference between Communism and the present dictatorships of Latin America is that "Communism seizes American investments, whereas theLatin American dictatorships don't. "But we did not have any investments in Vietnam at the time wegot involved," he said. Asked what he thought of the President's let-up of the bombing of NorthVietnam, he retorted, "What let-up? We are still dropping as many bombs. We just don't drop them on the cities." In his attack of the President, McReynolds continuously referred to him as the "bastardwho shall remain nameless." He said every peace move by Johnson to date has invariably led to anescalation of the war. "I wouldn't put it past the bastard to declare lull war before November," he said.He said he was pleased with the showing Sen.

In Antwerp, they poured out of nearby dance halls and cafes, dashed into the flaming 16th century St. Paul's Church and savedpriceless paintings by the old Dutch masters, some by Reubens and Van Dyck. The paintings, valued at$10 million by some and as priceless by more, had been given up for lost by church and city officials.But later police found the paintings gently laid on the floors of dance halls and cafes near the ruinedchurch. To save the paintings, youths had to run in when the roof was burning and parts of it falling, onewitness sad. While it is well to applaud these Belgians, one must look at the flames in America's citiesthis weekend and weep. What was accomplished by Dr. Martin Luther King's senseless murder? Whatcan be accomplished by the irrational arson, looting and killing? The exhilarating feelings of burningmay seem like "power," but the flames will die, smoulder, be useful to fewâ€”if any. And who will cry forthe little man, who, because of a few, loses his home or his living? Who will mourn the countless littleassassinations? Not those who destroy. There are perhaps no priceless paintings of Dutch masters in the American streets today racked by violence. However, those who perpetrate this violence aredestroying something else that's priceless, but it is hid from their eyes. "Would that even today youknew the things that make for peace!" â€”J.D. s.'j.:'.*.::'*.: Speeding, parking on Highland pose greatesttraffic worry By DAN MEINS of fee Western Front Enforcement of the Highland Drive speed limit and the parking problem are two of the biggest traffic worries for the City Police and the Campus SecurityPatrol. Since Highland Drive is a city street, city police enforce the 20 m.p.h. limit One officer said theDrive is one of the worst potential accident areas in the city. He said the street is regularly patrolled butnot on fixed schedule. George Steer, former security supervisor, said three pedestrians were injuredlast quarter on the Drive. "If the students would just cross in the marked areas," Steer said, "we wouldn't have as many accidents!" Of course the fault partly lies with speeding drivers. Most accidentshappen at night, Steer said last week, one reason why "we are working with the city to erect betterlighting and start a safety program." The main problem is lack of parking close to campus. "Most people are just like that student," said campus patrolman Rudy Jeri as he pointed to a driver, "cruising arounduntil they find a place to land." The alley behind the VU poses a typical problem. At present the area isin a state of limbo known as "street vacancy," that is, the city owns part and the college is taking it overintending eventually to close it for the new VU extension. Students violate even the no-parking signspainted on the Book Store wall, making the alley a fire hazard. "There would be no room at all for aladder truck," Jeri said. Other areas of congestion are in back of Old Main and in front of the ScienceBuilding. The Science Building is tempting in particular because of its central location and easyaccess to the library. Faculty members complain, Jeri said, because students park there (even thoughthere are two no-parking signs) and professors can't load or unload science equipment. "If the students(and faculty) would only stop and think," Jeri said, "before they park in their screwball places! Take, forinstance, the cul-de-sac in front of the gym â€” technically, no one is to park in there. Suppose therewere a big basketball game and a fire broke out." Usually the Campus Security patrol hands out onlywarning tickets. But in cases of continued abuse cars may be towed away. Jeri said last quarter, one student accumulated $75 in fines.

We have spun the concept of Jesus into cotton candy. We donot know who Che Guevara was; whatMal-com X said; or why we are in Vietnam. Now, very properly,we mourn the death of Rev. Martin Luther King. But we â€” innocent, guilty or ignorant â€” must now beafraid of what will happen. We are incapable of comprehending what the result of King's death will beto both Black and White.

But this has been said before. Something that hasn't been commented on isthe quality (?) of the lighting effects in the gym. All evening, Mr. McKuen was stabbed, slapped andinsulted by the light games. Some of his personal facial expressions were all but erased. This is not the first time this has happened. It happened at Lou Rawls, and at Ray Charles. The performers have had to dodge to find a place to be seen. If we anticipate having top-rate performers brought to our campus,from whom we expect a top quality performance, it seems that something should be done to theperformance of our lighting crew to raise them to the responsibility of these standards of entertainment.Clint Fellon Freshman Letters to the editor should be typewritten on a 60-space fine, less than 250words, not poetry and not libelous.

We understand your approval and shall act accordingly. We understandthat "Where there is no justice, there shall be no peace." Your proverb, "It'snotwheth-er you win or losethat counts, but how you play the game," is no good. Dr. King deplored violence. You gave him theNobel Peace Prize and then reward his endeavors with violent murder. The white liberal is a mancaught up in the political bootstraps of this insane society.

After losingto the Beavers 5-3, in a typicalhard hitting contest, Western recovered somewhat to defeat Seattle 8-6, but was eliminated in theirthird game of the day falling to West Vancouver 13-0. The Viks, going with the wind, scored first against OSU on a try by Ron Lealos, as Western's backs raced by their opponents. Al Needler's kick, which,later proved crucial hooked, inches wide of the goal post. OSU came back early in the second half withthe winning points. The Beavers forced Bob Unick to kick out of the Western end zone, but the strongwind blew me ball back where an Oregon State scrummer pounced on it for a try. Their conversion kick, from the sideline, was caught by the wind too and blown through the uprights. The Western backfieldtwice came back strong, but couldn't get a score. Larry Willman's best effort was stopped inches shortin the closing minutes. Against Seattle, the Viks had trouble handling the ball and were behind 6-0 athalftime. Lee Keown tightened the game up though with a 30 yard score and together with JerryHenson's conversion made the score 6-5. Rich Blanc took a pass from Jeff Zygar and galloped 20 yards for the winning try, with only minutes remaining. Playing their third game of the day, against WestVancouver, who drew a second round bye, Western could only last a scoreless first half beforefaltering, with a team comprised mainly of reserves. Western's best effort, a 35 yard run by BobUnick, was stopped just a yard short of the goal. This weekend the Viks are entered in the first annualVancouver, B.C. Rugby Tournament.

Litter week will end next Wednesday, whenstudents vote on Associated Students offices and several bills. Choice '68, the national collegepresidential primary, will also be part of the election.

Trailing him were Noel Bourasaw, with 74 votes, and Mary May, with 23. All threewill have their names on the AS ballot next Wednesday. Other presidential nominees who declinedbefore the voting were Dan Fredrickson, George Harvey and Barney Smith. President Charles J. Flora, opening speaker for Friday night's activities, told delegates that Western was a college of diversity ofopinion. "We must do everything in our power to encourage this diversity," he said. He asked forassistance from student body officers in determining students' opinions. After Flora's speech, AScandidates spoke accepting their nominations for office. Jones told delegates, "I would like to build astudent government that is going to represent all the students effectively and keep up with the growth ofWestern. I want to put more students in student government and in administration of government." MissMay said she would present students'opinions at the State Legislature in Olympia, if elected. "It is only through showing that students are capable of representing themselves that they will deserve morepower, she said. Bourasaw said the AS Legislature was the students' voice. "If elected I will giveorganized groups all kinds of campus problems to solve arising out of student government. It is only bydoing this that everyone at all levels will have a part in student government" Klipsun out The WinterKlipsun Quarterly w i l l be distributed at 1 p.m. Thursday in the VU foyer.

You bugged him so bad, he's ready to get out," Dick Gregory, black comedian, civil rights leader and write-in candidate forpresident told about 1500 students in Carver Gym last week. Speaking at Western on the 44th day ofhis 47-day fast to protest the war in Vietnam, Gregory told students he spends about 98 per cent of histime on college campuses. Because students possess a great moral force and a job to do, Gregorythinks students can solve the many problems this country faces. "We have to put emphasis on not howfast we can get somewhere, but how to increase man's humanity to man," Gregory said. On the warGregory said, "I'd rather see America kill Americans than Vietnamese. I think it's time we keep our filth at home. If this filthy, corrupt nation has to destroy itself, I say good." Gregory suggested to students that if they want to see the war end, they should announce that they won't get a haircut or smoke a cigaretteuntil it does. He said that the barbers and tobacco companies would see to its conclusion then.Referring to the black leader's attempts to achieve justice for their people, Gregory said "Nonviolence was King's method, not his purpose." He called the riots following Martin Luther King's assassination "just an added bonus." On the summer riots he foresees, Gregory said, "Do you think the blacks learningmilitary techniques in Vietnam will forget them when they come home to the cities this summer?" "Don'tgive me my civil rights on the installment plan," Gregory said, discussing the civil rights bill just passed which goes into effect in 1970. "We're tired of these games this country's been playing with us," wasGregory's constant refrain throughout the hour and 45 minute address. Gregory warned the audience ofthe consequences to Washington that he said will come as a result of his serving his upheld 90-dayconviction for illegal fishing with the Nisqually Indians in 1966. "You don't have a Ku Klux Klan in whitesheets up here. Your clan wears black sheets and calls itself the Supreme Court," Gregory said.Wearing work clothes and thin from the 44th day of his 47-day fast protesting the war in Vietnam,comedian and Black Power advocate Dick Gregory stopped at Western Thursday to address studentsand faculty in Carver Gym and to present the opening speech at the Associated Students nominatingconvention that night.

Insteadof tulips, it held true for demonstrators last week. Placement personnel had to pick their way over sit-insprotesting military recruiters on campus. (Photo by Larry Adams) Croup views change from within Threestatements were issued by the students who stayed in Edens Hall during the sit-in and demonstrations.Each one spoke of changing committments. The first, entitled "A View from Within," stated, "Ourcom- WE'RE NOT EXPENSIVE .. We Just Look That Way. HOWARD'S CHAR BROILER 1408Cornwall mittment is to immediate and permanent removal of all military interviewers from campus." This was their cause. The second, entitled the same as the first, said, "We are working for an equalvoice in the administration of this college for all students so as to build a school not only dedicated to the pursuit of knowledge but also the betterment of humanity." This, too, was a cause. The finalstatement claimed, "We cannot avoid more Viet-nams by simply protesting that one war; rather, wemust attempt to remove the fundamental causes that made that war possible." And this was acause. The last was signed by Brian Hamel, Norm Randall, Tony Morefield, Gene Terry, Andy Phillipsand John Lemmon. Honda where you're going in Bates Floater Knock-a-Boots!

Nine of those receiving letters were students who spent one or more nights in the placement office. Six of the nine stayed all three nights and fasted during this period "as asymbol of our resistance to the military in our community, in our nation, in our world." The sixissued a statement on Monday saying that their fast was also "in memorium to Dr. Martin Luther Kingwhose tragic slaying is but a symptom of the sickness that pervades our society. "We do this inmemorium of the 525,000 people in Vietnam who have died as a result of American foreign policy." Inaddition to the nine sleep-ins, 15 of the identified students, who remained in the placement office afterHitchman requested that they leave on Monday, were sent letters requesting their appearance beforethe disciplinary committee. The disciplinary committee, comprised of two students, two facultymembers and one administrator, has not been active so far this year. Hitchman said that the namesof those on the committee would not be released because "of pressure mat could be exerted onthem." Hitchman has had himself removed from the chairmanship of tiie disciplinary committeebecause he has prior knowledge of the case. President Charles J. Flora will appoint an ad hoc chairman. Procedural rights of students called before the disciplinary committee, listed on pages 22-23 of thecurrent "Navigator," include the right to "request a public hearing before this committee." Hitchmansaid that any penalty to be awarded for alleged violations would come from this committee. Anotherprovision of the "Navigator" states that "The committee and the student may call any resource personsthey wish to speak concerning the case." The taking of names and student numbers by campussecurity police during the demonstrations resulted, Hitchman said, from a meeting he had withChuck Miller, Dave Cunningham and Terry Flanders, all students. The action was taken to prevent non -students from entering, Hitchman said. Flora, asked why the civil authorities were not called to stop thesit-ins, said that "arrest would have been a violation of the tolerance we should display in this situation." The administration believes in me right of peaceful demonstrations, Flora said, emphasizing that"no direct or overt interference with the rights of others" had taken place. He said the sit-ins were "veryfrustrated and wanted to make their concern about the Vietnam war known." Flora said that it wasappropriate to advise the sit-ins that they were violating college regulations. On Tuesday, whilesympathetic demonstrators and interested onlookers basked in the sun listening to songs of protest by Larry Kronquist and others, the Marines inside were busy with interviews. Marine Corps Capt.Erskine Austin of Seattle said he had "mixed emotions about the Faculty Council approves collegegovernment plan in principle The Faculty Council approved in principle last week a plan that wouldreorganize college government, setting up an academic senate with student, faculty andadministration representatives. The senate would be the governing body of the college. Details of the proposal must still be worked out, according to Dr. Walter Robinson, chairman of the Faculty Council.The current proposal calls for three students, but a case was made last week for having 12 students onthe senate. Author of the proposed reorganization is Dr. Carter Broad, professor of biology.

Inthe beginning By MARK HOFFMANN of the Western Front Four days and three nights of demonstration a g a i n s t on-campus Armed Forces recruiting took place last week in the Placement office area,located in the Edens Hall basement. On Monday, an estimated 75 students crowded into the mainlounge of the Placement office to protest the presence of U.S. Army recruiters. The students swarmedinto the office after a teach-in, taking place outside on the lawn, was disrupted by a student dressed inArmy garb. The mocksoldier prodded a pretending Viet Cong to the speaker's microphone with a rifle. "Ifound this here Commie lurkhV around in the bushes," he told the enthusiastic group of 200. "I want allyou peace-freaks to come on into this buildin' here where I'll ask my com-mandin' officer if we canexecute him or something." When the lounge of the office was filled with curious students, a call fororganization was made. By this time most of the students knew what was going on â€” the peacefulteach-in hadbeen turned into a direct-resistance demonstration "against campus com-plicity with thewar effort." The doorway was blocked and a letter was drafted and signed by 44 students. The letter,which was sent to President Flora, called for "the immediate removal of military recruiters from thecampus." Dr. Bernard Weiner of the political science department appeared in the doorway and im lt;plored the students not to hinder the Army recruitment. "By doing this you are infringing on the civilliberties of other people," he told the hushed group. "What right do you have in preventing others to come into this office?" he asked. Someone in the crowd mumbled, "Weiner is so damned conservative."Classified Advertising 10. Misc. For Sale Black Lightâ€” 4 foot with holder. $12.50.

BillPurdue, a member of the Young Socialist Party in Seattle spoke about Viet Nam alongwith Butler, toconclude the speeches Â£lven during last week's demonstrations against military recruitment oncampus outside the placement center. Whatever you call it, "neo - colonialism, imperialism or slavery,"Butler said that the U.So will support the apartheid system throughout the world, in Africa, SantaDomingo and Asia. Butler said that the U.S. "pumps $500 million a year into South Africa," and justifiesit by saying "Business is separate from politics." Carl Trotter, a black student, agreed with Butler thatthe white liberal is not helping the blacks. 'When you prayed for King, you prayed for non-violence,'-' hesaid. Eutler pointed to President Johnson's saying that nothing can be accomplished by violence. "Then what about the bombing of North Vietnam," Butler asked. "The only way to achieve any* thing is bypower", Butler said adding that with power the blacks can negotiate. Butler claimed "This system has denied us everything. You're denying us our civil rights. We'll take freedom over your or our deadbodies." Chris Condon one of the antiwar demonstrators, told Butler he "favors black control of blackcommunities, but I'm part of this country and I have my rights to life and liberty. I can't see these peopleapplauding their own deaths." He said, "It's stupid for the black and white rebels to fight each other."Butler said that the whites in this country are the most violent people in the world because they killedIndians and enslaved blacks. He said, "The blacks worked and built this country, not you, and now we're going to take our part." On other campuses UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON â€” "The Daily," writing ofthe student body elections, noted, " Tis the season for soggy campaign posters, gung-ho rallies andsmiling candidates to descend on the University campus" and added a coed's comment, "What has theASUW ever done for me? I really don't know." UNIVERSITY OF UTAH - The "Huddle," a coffee den at the UU, has been criticized for being a "den of iniquity" for drug peddlers, "crooks and vagrants."UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON â€” A candidate here ran for Associated Students legislator on aplatform that included ending of ROTC on campus, no tuition, student control of hiring and firing of facultyand free contraceptives for students. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON â€” Students campaigning for student body office here no longer have to pay a $15 election fee, the student senate decided last week. The feewas originally charged as insurance against election rules violations. Student reactions vary at sit-in BySTEVE LAMPE news editor Student reaction to the sit-in and military demonstrations ran wide andvaried last week. Some comments were unfavorable. Several students came to the front of the crowdduring open microphone session "Where the hell have you been," said Lauren Eathurst, president ofStudents for Peace in Vietnam. "What will you do if the war ends tomorrow? Will you sit back andadmire a job well done, or will you see that there are no more Vietnams?" "Would you even be here if itwere raining?" said another. "Most of you are interested in saving your necks and degrading yourcountry. You should be treating your government with kindness," another student yelled. A group of sixwomen students distributed a statement expressing their views. In part it read: "We are not stating aposition for or against the war in Vietnam, or any other political actions. We merely question anypeople who would deny another man the opportunity to seek a career. True freedom is freedom for anindividual to make his decision without harrass-ment." Still other students were in favor of the sit-in anddemonstrations: "We've talked for hundreds of years and we're tired of talking . . . They don't wantyour help, they want your understanding." "If the Marines are allowed to come on this campus andrecruit, then we should be able to go to Marine bases and encourage desertion," said Chris Condon,last summer's Collegian" editor. Condon continued in saying, "I am not going to respond to anydisciplinary action and will not recognize any summons brought to me by this institution. I urge all of you to do the same."

Then someone called for a ten-minute silence in rememberance of Dr. Martin Luther King. A hush fell over the crowd of more than 100 "It reminds me of 'The Raven' ", one girl whispered.

Flora orders discipline hearing In regard tothe "Sit-ins" of last week, this office has been directed by the President of the College to instituteproceedings to consider alleged violations of college regulations by students, for whom names could beobtained, who remained in the Placement Office and Registration Center after being advised that theyshould not enter and disturb the placement, on April 8 and remained the nights of April 8, 9 and 10.These charges do not pertain to the "Teach-ins" or to those who passed in and out of the RegistrationCenter on the 9th and 10th or to those who left the Placement Office on the 8th after being warned. TheCollege Discipline Committee, not any administrator, will reach a decision in the case.

Reg Butler, campus leader of the Black Revolution, gave the last of the week's many speeches. He told more than 200 students that the blacks would negotiate frompower after enough killing and burning had taken place. He said that the time for talking had endedbecause talking accomplished nothing; that Martin Luther King's assassination signaled the end of thenonviolent revolution. The peaceful group of six committed students who had fasted and stayed in thePlacement Center three nights came out. Their aim, "the immediate and permanent removal of allmilitary interviewers from campus" was, of course, a denial of the basic civil liberties of others to make achoice. But their opposition to recruitment symbolized their opposition to the course the U.S. is followingin Vietnam, a legitimate concern. That they were acting from concern for the future of this country, both at home and abroad, was indicated by the changing nature of the four statements they issued. Theiraction became the basis for a dialogue during the week involving hundreds of concerned students. Tothose students who came and listened and thought and talked, it was a significant experience. Apathy,first jarred by King's death, later shattered by the rioting and deaths which followed, was destroyed by the immediacy of student involvement in the process which starts change, perhaps even progress, in ourdemocratic society. Butler's solution of violence, however, is no solution, not now, when the need forchange and the concern of the people are so evident. If violence continues, and the prerequisite order forLiberty is endangered, a police state of suppression will result. â€”Mike Koch. let's initiate it YoungWashington, the effort to put Initiative 241 on next year's ballot, should get full support for at least onereason: education.

The award, the highest possible rating, wasgiven after national competition with weekly college newspapers from institutions enrolling more than4,000 students. Basic judging criteria were coverage, content and physical properties (layout,typography). The FRONT won perfect scores in most of the 25 categories. The judge also commendedthe paper's news coverage, cre-ativeness, style, editorials, makeup, headlines and choice of pictures.Want more coverage Editor: We would like to congratulate the editor and staff of the Western Front for finally rounding up an "article" on the Western debate team's successes this year (See article onpage 7 of the April 2 issue). We would like also to call attention to page 10 and 11 of the same issuewhich describes Western's track team's defeat in full detail. The debate squad is the first in the state,topping all other Washington schools at the Lin-field tournament â€” the oldest invitational tournament inthe West. We have a trophy case full of evidence of our success, yet the Western Front staff seemsmore interested in informing the student body of the defeats suffered by our athletic teams. Thestudents of Western help to pay for our trips to California, Oregon and, next week, to Idaho for thedebate tournament sponsored by the national debate fraternity, Pi Kappa Delta. We would think that thestudents would be interested in hearing about the success of the squad at that tournament â€” if notabout the total success we have had throughout the year. We will be looking for a full article in the April30 issue, following that tournament. Nicoli Derry Barbara Halley Marcia Crane Seniors, speech Editor's note: It is unfortunate that the debate squad feels neglected. In only two quarters this year, they have received four times as much coverage (62 inches) than during all three quarters last year (15 inches).Replies to BSU Editor: I wish to comment on the BSU letter, "White Liberal" Firstly, did the BSU expect those "white liberals" to pay their respect on Friday to the late Martin Luther King by rioting? Whatgreater eloquence to the Apostle of Peace than to stand in silent mourning? Secondly, the BSU isconfusing the "white liberals" who expressed their sorrow and horror at the assassination byvoluntarily standing in silence with that segment of the ''white population" who remained silent bynot participting in any of the memorial services held for King, or in any of the civil rights marches heldover the past decade. If only more of the silent "white population" were to participate silently andpeacefully in civil rights demonstrations, a better climate for racial harmony andsocial reparation might ensue. Reynold Hairs Instructor, English Advice to BSU Editor: Perhaps those members of theBlack Student Union who were so kind as to offer the "white liberals" advice, should, themselves, listento a little. We don't profess to know an acceptable solution to today's race troubles, but one thing iscertain: they won't end with threats or warnings! Any person, "white liberal" included, will, whenthreatened, react accordingly. If our property, our lives, our homes, or our security are threatened wenaturally will take whatever steps are necessary to protect them or to halt those who seek to harm us. Are, then, Black threats going to "make us see the light" and grant whatever is requested of us?Equality in anything and everything is so often spoken of as the goal, yet members of the BSUobviously wish only to further polarize the races, with their frequent use of "you" and "we."

In conclusion, the sooner threats are stopped, and the soonerwe are rid of supremists of any race, perhaps the sooner the "end" will be reached. James S. Belloni,Soph, history Ronald Harner, Junior, history Gary Bruner, Soph., English Pete Rasmussen, Frosh,history Jay Windisch, Junior, English Answers BSU Editor: As a "white liberal" on the English faculty Iam addressing the Black Students Union, whose letter in denunciation of all such appeared in yourissue of April 9. (1) You surely did not get your slogan "the end justifies the means" from Martin LutherKing. It was Machiavelli and Adolph Hitler who preached and acted on this slogan, not the saintly headof the Southern Christian Leadership Conference. (2) We white liberals in honoring Dr. King onFriday by standing for fifteen minutes in silence were not signing a Declaration of War againstanybody or anything but racial bigotry and violence, whether white or black. (3) To the two students inyour Union whom I have had in my classes I particularly appeal to apply the lesson they must havelearned from Shakespeare and other great English writers that "a man's a man," no matter what thecolor of his skin, economic status, religious belief, or political affiliation. (4) Your point about the white liberal's sole concern with the achievement of power is sharply refuted by the recent decision ofPresident Johnson not to run for re-election. No American President in all of our history has quite risen to the sublime magnanimity and statesmanship of Lyndon Johnson's renunciation of power for thesake of peace at home and abroad. Also he is our first President to nominate black men for theSupreme Court and membership in his Cabinet. (5) Black or white, we are all Americans. Our forebearshave â€” when the occasions arose â€” voted, demonstrated, struggled, fought, and died so that thegovernment of the people, by the people, and for the people should not perish from the earth. That is stillthe great black American and white American Dream. Arthur Hicks Professor of English End justifymeans? Editor: The "White Liberals" letter (Tuesday, April 9, 1968), concludes with " . . . 'The endjustifies the means'." Whether such a claim best explains the question "what is justice?" appearsdoubtful: but it seems that that letter illustrates its concluding statement. In no way do I see how thebody of that letter supports or justifies that final sentence. An accusation like "You, with your silence,have signed the Declaration of war" really meets with much difficulty, for it is hard to see how one wouldpresume a silence makes a signature. No less questionable is the paragraph, "The white liberal is aman caught up in . . . this insane society. To achieve power is his whole bag." Here one can onlyspeculate about what "power" and "insane" constitute. How the conclusion, " . . . 'The end justifies themean'," can be drawn from those sorts of statements is beyond me. Perhaps then it is fitting that theinsight, " . . . 'The end justifies the means'," holds^ for that letter: where the "end" is questionable,so are the "means." Bud Ashbach Junior, philosophy 'Moral cliches' Editor: Speaking in reference tothe statement circulated by the students conducting the sit-in inside the placement center I would like to say a few words. The statement begins: "There comes a time when words are not enough, when onlyactions can convince anyone of the depths of our beliefs." These are nice words, but they come at atime when the peace movement has already been through its most trying period, at a time whenlegitimate peace initiatives by both parties concerned are beginning to take shape. I might, therefore,be a little more convinced of the depths of their beliefs had they acted at a time when some potentialharm existed for themselves, at a time when the overwhelming majority was definitely for the war, at atime when the school administration might have conceivably taken action against them. They statefurthermore that "the problem is thatt in a democratic society people, as citizens, are notparticipating in vital decision-making and instead are too prone to leave the law up to somebody else."Since when, one might ask, have the people actually participated in vital decision making processes? In Athens perhaps. I would gather from this statement that everyone should be herded into YankeeStadium on a sunny afternoon to take a vote on defense appropriations and other such matters. Thesefunctions are executive and legislative in nature. Finally I wonder if these people really know what the"fundamental causes that made that war possible" are; do they understand the complex interactionof history and events which produced Vietnam? I think not; for very few people do. They seem ratherto be responding to dynamic events with old moral cliches and loaded rhetoric. Meryl Rogers Senior,political science 'Respect' the key Editor: A problem of the utmost importance exists here in Americaand it is our duty as America's youth to solve that problem. Prejudice . . . What is it? "The act ofjudging beforehand, or without all the evidence." A horrible reality but one which is committed by andtoevery group of people in this country. Americans, probably because of their great ethnic diversity, have always prejudged others. Language barriers always cause unrest. Every man who ever came toAmerica was prejudged regardless of his nationality or color â€” when he first got here. But nearly everyman who chose to come here also chose to bear the initial distrust and hatred, and one by one, everygroup overcame. Negro people did not choose to come. It will do no good to go into the history. Wecannot condone our forbearer's actions to repay the Negro people for the crimes of our fathers. Wemust give them the same chance though, and likewise, they must help us to rid ourselves of racialprejudice. One of their leaders is dead now but he wouldn't want his policies changed. Violence isnot the way others overcame it cannot be that way now. Th. word respect is the key to any people'ssuccess. When the Chinese, Jews and others earn- (Continued on page 5) ---------- Western Front - 1968 April 16 - Page 5 ---------- Letters to the Editor (Continued from page 4) ed the respect of their adopted countrymen, they were past the big obstacle and racial barriers were smashed down. The Negro people must realize this. Everytime a man throws a brick through a window or shoots another man, he loses for himself and hispeople any esteem previously earned, whether he kills a Nobel prize winner or a NationalGuardsman. No one can claim stupidity. Intelligence has no color. It does have to be developed but thechance is now here to develop it. Many Americans can be proud that their old-country ancestors tookadvantage of that opportun-fty. The greatest hope today is that the next generation can be equally proudof this one, David Dapcevich Freshman, accounting Lighting complex Editor: Unless you have run aspotlight in the gymnasium you will never never appreciate the complexities involved in doing so. Theoperators do not have cue sheets. They are directed by the stage manager of the visiting per formers,who tell them what color, if any, to use, what scope to use, and when to change the lighting. Thismakes it very difficult for the operators, who must follow the performance with a completely unrehearsed plan. The Ray Charles Concert drew considerable criticism regarding the "failure of the light crew" tospotlight certain key performers in the band along Flora explains college attitude on protestors I am ofthe view, which I hope most of my colleagues share, that protest in a myriad of ways is not onlyacceptable but to be encouraged in this college. Diversity of opinion must be the essence of.thiscommunity and tolerance must be its correlate. Only when the promulgation of a particular opinioninhibits the proper expression of another, should we concern ourselves with limits. It is difficult todecide when the activities surrounding the advance of a particular idea or belief have gone too farand improperly impede the rights of others. During this weekj we have seen a "teach-in" in opposition tothe war in Vietnam. Planned are vigils and peace marches. I hope none among us seriously believes that such demonstrations are inappropriate to this college. Also, during this week, we have experienced a "sit-in" in opposition to military recruiting on this campus. This appears to have been a effort on the partof a few people to so impede the operations of these guests of the college that they could not carryon normally. Or perhaps to drive these people away, resulting in others not havingthe opportunity to meet with them. Because the rights of others may have been interfered with and because there may havebeen a violation of college policy. I have directed the Dean of Students to initiate disciplinaryproceedings as described in the 1967-68 Navigator, pages 22-23, for those individuals who wereinvolved. It will be the task of the committee to determine whether in fact rules have been broken and ifso, what punishment, if any, should be levied. There are students and faculty who believe that noproceedings should be initiated, that this entire matter should be forgotten. I cannot accept this. To do so is to admit that we make no effort to protect the rights of those adhering to the target of a givenprotest. Dr. Charles J. Flora College President with Mr. Charles. It was not due to "light crew failure,"however. Ray Charles' instructions were explicitly to light him and not the band. The lighting crew was afterwards thanked by the Charles group for doing a fine job. After the Lou Rawls performance thelight crew and everyone else connected with the show was personally contacted by Mr. Rawls. In hisopinion it was one of the finest lighting jobs he had witnessed during his tour on the college circuit. TheMcKuen Concert, for the light crew, was a very disappointing experience because hours of work insetting up special lighting effects for the back of the stage were later vetoed by McKuen, who merelywanted one lone spotlight illuminating his face. A slight difficulty also arose when the tension release on the carbon arc light slipped during adjustment, causing a boomerang-like movement of the machine.The movement was not pre-meditated. Those operating the lights have been trained in the functioningof its parts only. They have not been trained in the art and skill of lighting improvisation, which isessentially what Western's visiting penormers call for. Therefore, when called upon, they can onlydo their best Allen Eaton Speech Department Explains lighting Editor: I would like to reply on oneaspect of the letter of last week from Clint Fellon concerning the lighting of Rod McKuen, etal. LastFriday, the maintenance department finally took the time from other priority projects to install a directcurrent line for me in the gymnasium. This was to enable me to use some lighting equipment borrowed from the drama department. Four people spent approximately 20 hours each setting up lights,gelling, wiring and focusing an experimental set of lights for Mr. McKuen's performance. Mr.McKuen scheduled a rehearsal prior to the performance, which is something that no other performer had done. Mr. McKuen did not appear for this rehersal â€”he did not appear until 7:50 p.m. Mr. McKuen then observed the lighting set up and stated: "I am not an entertainer, I am a songwriter." He thenrequested we use only one 2500 watt arc-spotlight, with no color, focused on him. This we managed toset up by showtime. Mr. McKuen was stabbed, slashed and subjected to other in-diginities mostly atthe direction of his stage manager by headphone from the bleachers. These cues by the way consistof "Ready . . . Now, Out . . . On Full . . . Down to his face . . . Faster, Faster! etc. etc." Have you anyidea of what will happen 10 seconds from now? Try keeping a broom on a bouncing football by a 120foot long handle! I apologize for our mistakes, those are my fault. We do not apologize for things overwhich we have no control. The entertainers have apologized to us for that. Tuesday, April 16, 1968 By the way, the UW pays its lighting staff students $6 per hour; most of ours do it free. If you can help, ifyou have constructive criticism, I await Western Front 5 you and can pay $1.30 per hour if you "can"help us. Byron Smith Senior, speech AS lighting consultant This writer preferred to buy space for hisletter rather than edit it to the length limit of the letters column. Alright, you black students: Now we'White Liberals' have been informed of your anger! We did not have to be told of it. We had hoped in yourseven vituperative paragraphs to learn from you something more than anger. We had hoped forsuggestions, for a program. You claim now that for you the end justifies the means. If a person's goal isto wage war against you, and if his end is to shed blood, then to discuss means with him is to babble.You tell us that our silence on the Eighth of April has signed a declaration of war against you. Are youdeaf to the myriad origins of silence? To be sure there is the decadent silence behind closed doors ofprofiteering cowards with whose tactic approval abominations are committed. Every decent human beingmust war against such silence. But there is also the silence of the vast deserts and of intergalacticspace, the silence preceding Creation. There is the .silence of a forest when a storm is imminent. Do you declare your mean and puny and shortsighted war on account of these? And, there is a third silence:There is the still point at the center of a cloud of faces black and white, gathered about an emptyconcrete cistern at the approach of noon. There, in silence, out of each locked brain a sorrowing andsearching spirit strives upwards against the chaotic din of 'progress' clattering inhumanly around him. Is it against these spirits reflecting upon the ideals of a murdered saint in order to discover therein ameaningful redirection that you declare your peevish and pointless war? We White Liberals have alsoknown rage. Our sins do not reside in the color of our faces, and we do not apologize either for our coloror for yours. Collecting in rage, in guilt, and in frustrated bewilderment a crowd can move in many ways. It is a hapless plank upon a fulcrum. Some of your Black leaders have sneered at us to disperse becausewe are confused and futile. But you must know that, if we do disperse, then there will amass in thevacuum behind us a White mob of another sort altogether, a mob not given to reflection and to thebewilderment which reflection engenders. This White mob will confront a Black mob of correspondingspecifications. And, then, all honorable and sentient human beings will be the losers. You have seenthose other, those malevolent, White faces peering at you in supermarkets and in theaters. They blendwell into uniforms, and weapons come readily to their hands. When you Blacks will at last stand alonewith your makeshift guns, then with awful weapons they will outnumber you. If you will attend to anythingbesides your blinding anger, then you will have seen that your enemies are our enemies too; that theyhate us White Liberals, whom they call Peace Creeps and Comsimps and Hippies and Niggerlovers, atleast as much as they hate you whom they call Niggers. Should your goals include surviving in honor and in achieving liberty, then your tactics â€” your meansâ€” are poor when you separate your forces fromours. Indeed, you would be sightless if you did not see that your struggle is that of every lonely individualwho dares to choose freedom. We await your specific, intelligent, constructive recommendations toaction in our common cause. Any fool can give us his curses.

McCrea argues public abets crime by*10 billion "We spend more money on cigarettes than we do on reforming our law enforcement institutions." Speaking to an audience of only 10, TullyMcCre^, western director of the National Council on Crime and Delinquency (NCCD), argued lastTuesday that the public abets crime, saying, "Americans spend more than $10 billion a year onorganized crime." He played down the problem, however, saying, 'It is questionable that crime is anyworse a problem now than it was 100 years ago." McCrea said police should be trained in communityrelations. Lack of such training contributes to resentment between police and the general public, he said. Also, he added, "Parents often teach their kids to hate police." The NCCD, a private group, works with government agencies and law enforcement officials in developing what McCrea called "scientificmethods" for fighting crime. For example, a delinquency and Youth Committee was formed lastJanuary, with about 30 member agencies, to handle juvenile delinquency problems, he said. loneFoss exhibits wafer color paintings off campus lone Foss, instructor of art education and basic drawingat Western, opened an exhibition of her water color paintings at Gallery 217 last Friday. The exhibit willrun through April 27 at the gallery, 217 E. Holly St., from 12-5 p.m., Wednesday through Saturday,and Friday until 10 p.m. Miss Foss's paintings embody a wide range and versatility in water colors.Flowers in pastel vases, a woman's face outlined in bold strokes, mountains melting into washes ofcolor, and what looks like Japanese scratches in basic blacks and greys compose her repertoire. "Iwasn't doing the same thing the Impressionists were doing," she said, referring to a landscape of dottedcolors. "I wastryingto capture (he rich color relationships in physical light. The result probably looksImpression* istic, but from two different ways of going about it." Miss Foss tries to capture dark andlight, warm and cool. Her style varies from picture to picture because the mood, color and subjectexpress different things. "Style is something you gain after very concentrated work," she said. "Some of my best work I did in a flash. I worked for hours, for example, on another painting and finally gave up.Then I painted that one over there and it turned out just the way I wanted it." Miss Foss begandrawingwhen she was a small girl. "My first try," she said, "was copying advertisements on the box ofoatmeal cereal." She has had several shows in the Pacific Northwest in the past ten years. Recently,she exhibited her drawings at the Northwest Water Color Society Show.

HOLLY Prof is department's Latin dimension 'El cabollero de Bella Vista' By DAN MEINS of the Western Front When I walked into George F. Drake's office in Old Main, Icarefully avoided the enormous bear rug on the floor. "Step on it," he yelled from behind the desk. 'I'vebeen trying all quarter to get people to walk on it and iron out the folds!" George Drake, assistantprofessor of sociology, is the department's newest addition. His specialty is Latin America. Astretched sheepskin plaque with rows of signatures and hand-printed script letters hangs )n the wall ofhis office. The plaque, translated from the Spanish, reads: "The society of Bella Vista positivelylaments the absence of Jorge Drake, a distinguished gentleman. Your life and works areappreciated as an example for our community." Bella Vista, Drake explained, is a fictitious name for a large city in Colombia, where he spent two and one-half years doing his doctoral research. Hereceived his master's degree from the University of Wisconsin. Drake was teaching at the stateuniversity in Bella Vista, but people remember him for his wotk in community development. "The peoplethought I was successful," he said. "They gave me the keys to the city in gold, and this is prettyimportant for a city of 230,000 people . . . the first time they've been given to an American. I was madehonorary citizen." Drake prefers to call community development â€”community organization. "Goingdown Words for the World UNIVERSAL PEACE is an impossibility through human and materialagencies; it must be through spiritual power. â€”Baha'i Writings Baha'i Books Available in WWSCLibrary From Baha'i Club BahtCi Temple Wilmette, III. George Drake 'e/ caballero (Photo by Heitzman) there to build outhouses for them, is this really community development?" he asks. The people won'tbe any better off or appreciate you more after you leave. Real social change can only be accomplished,he believes, by organizing conflict groups. The power structure of any city or nation wants stability.But when communities can be voluntarily organized along the lines of interest groups, such as laborunions and PTA's, then the people can change their present situation, he believes. "Some politicalpower cannot be changed and then you are looking for trouble," Drake said. Only a social revolution,as they had in Mexico, will ac- Art film emphasizes spiritual gratification complish a change in roleoccupants. Drake spent part of his^me in Bella Vista analyzing the city's power structure. He said hehas more information on the social structure of the city than the university at Bella Vista now has onfiles. By making key influential contacts, Drake personally interviewed more than 100 of the community's leaders. "Everyone was very frank," he said. The power structure is very complex. Every voluntaryorganization which threatens the elite leaders is "wiped out" and destroyed, he said. The military, assuch, has no influence. The Church has coercive power, but is not respected; it is the seat ofconservative Catholicism. There is a small jroup of elites who control everything, he explained. Drakebelieves he infiltrated everything of any importance there. He even attended communist "barrio"(district) meetings. The CIA, he said, is helping the elites to "bore" out some communist groups."They sent down a representative, he said, "to make sure I was all right" What made him come toWest-ern? "Well," he said, "Western fits all my criteria; a small college on the West Coast, away from themetropolitan area. I am thoroughly impressed." Students may be "impressed" with one of his classes,,This quarter Drake teaches one course on social change in Latin America and one on communityorganization. Alienation and dehumaniza-tion of man, which must be replaced by spiritual gratification, is the message of Jean-Luc God-ard's film, "Alphaville." It will be presented Friday night at 6:15 and8:30 in the auditorium. Lemmy Caution, Agent .003 earthling of today, is assigned to destroy the ruler of Alphaville, a space city of tomorrow. Caution, the French equivalent of Batman or James Bond, hasbeen a popular agent in French movies for 15 years. Reviews say Godard's masterful use of thecamera and lighting produce a unique texture to create a cinematic art form. Also playing is "Breaking it Up at the Museum," a 10-minute film of Jan Tinguely's self-destruction machine in the garden of the Museum of Modern Art. In describing the film, New York Times critic John Canady said, "Mr. Tinguelymakes fools of machines, while the rest of mankind supinely permits machines to make fools ofthem."

Under the plan, within a few years there maybe many empty spaces right on campus while drivers search side streets for spaces within walkingdistance of campus. Sound impossible? No, because on-campus parking, under the proposal, will be allocated not according to need but according to ability to pay. Under the proposal, the present $6 per quarter sticker fee will be $22 within 10 years and $35 by 1985, not counting inflation. The verypersons who will need on-campus parking mostâ€”â€¢ those students who must live far from campusbecause they can't pay the higher rents close ?n â€” will be least able to pay the exorbitant fees. As aresult, city streets in the college area may continue to be jammed, while the state POSITIVELEADERSHIP re-elect John Mollan tor AMS PRES. (Paid political advertising) spends anestimated$11,375,000 for parking facilities which may not be fully used. This paradox re suits from thefacts, first, that users will have to pay the full cost of new facilities; and, second, that as more spacesare added, the cost per space goes up. Since a state statute requires the college either charge the fullcost in fees or no fees at all, the college must either charge high rates or take the risky road of seekingmoney from an often-recalcitrant legislature. Per-space cost will increase because as spaces areadded the college must go to expensive underground and multilevel garages. Present cost for aspace in a gravel tot is $50, for a paved lot, $200-400 and for a multilevel garage, $2,400, campusarchitect Bob Aegerter estimates. The college can build an unlimited number of spaces, he saidonly at the cost of skyrocketing fees. Since it is impossible to predict what demand for spaces at$35 will be, the college has to guess. Since the college is basing its expansion plans on the expected total number of cars and not number of drivers willing to pay the fee, it seems likely many spaces willbe left empty while needs are unmet. In specific terms, the college plans to increase the present 1,362on-campus spaces to 4,- 147 at 10,000 enrollment (in 1978, accordingto estimates) SPRING FASHION "FLING" â€¢ COLORFUL COORDINATES to enhance your wardrobe These mix and matchcoordinates will add that special touch to any Spring wardrobe.

An underground garage is plannedadjacent to the proposed fieldhouse south of Bennet Drive at 21st and Hill streets, a two-story ramp forthe academic reserve and a four-story ramp at the north end of the VU. The college will pay for land,landscaping, lighting and sidewalks. Construction costs must come out of fees, Aegerter said.Aegerter said he "hopes" for better city bus service from future off-campus housing areas, and thecollege plans to install a trackless train into the campus from outlying lots. But he realizes students will still want cars, and feels on-campus parking must provide the solution. As arterial traffic increases, on-street parking â€” now about 825 spaces â€” will decrease. Aegerter predicts Garden, High, Oak, Indian, Pine and Cedar streets and Highland and West College drives eventually win be closed to parking. Thecollege can provide all unlimited parking space, Aegerter says. But he agrees exorbitant fees maykeep many drivers off college lots and the parking problem may remain as far from a solution asever.

(Photo by Larry Adams)Maconaghie says parking a big campus problem By MARYJO HARDY of the Western Front If you think you have parking problems, talk to campus marshal b. Maconaghie and listen to his side of thestory. "The biggest problem on campus is that of parking, and it will probably never be solved"Maconaghie commented. "With enrollment increasing by about 500 a year, and with one third ofthese students owning cars, the inability to keep up with adequate parking facilities is obvious."Recent surveys conducted by Maconaghie show that in the past year, utilization of present parkingspaces has been about 80 per cent on regular school days. He blames off-campus students forcongesting the lot below Higginson Hall, which has only 125 spaces. The larger facility on 21stStreet has 558, with at least 100 always empty, Maconaghie said. During spring vacation,Maconaghie finished a survey on available parking on streets adjacent to the campus. During winter quarter mid~terms he counted about 700 cars parked within the radius of Indian St. to Forest St., andfrom Palm St. to Maple St. On the Friday following the end of the quarter, only 94 cars were parked inthe same area. Day by day usage of parking facilities differs greatly from large attendance events oncampus. "This is where the greatest problem arises,"Macongah-ie said. During ball games, plays,and other campus-sponsored events open to the public, local people use many spaces. A study of theevening parking problem, to be finished by next winter quarter should show how many new lots shouldbe added to the campus. Since 12 to 15 people go to campus security each day to appeal parkingtickets and more than 1,500 tickets are written each quarter, Maconaghie has this advice forstudents*. "It's more trouble than it's worth having a car on campus, so unless it s necessary, leaveyour car at home."

Frosh big wheels lose wheels By MIKE JOENS of the Western Front "What can you do around here without a car?" No one will arguewith the fact that there is a large transition from high school to college. The 18- year-old campus king ofBurgundy Heights High School is converted overnight into the 18-year-old college freshman. He blindlylunges into the Western world of dormitories, Saga food, and demon Humanities. Still, the fearless froshsomehow scrambles over these obstacles, only to be confronted with the collegiate leviathan,represented in the struggle of the erotically neurotic freshman to gain access to any machine coveredby the heading of "automobile." Most previous freshmen have never had a car on campus, anyway, butthis year the administration made it official by refusing to sell parking stickers to freshmen. This means that, while the parking-space pressure is eased, up to 1,779 members of the college community areflung into a traumatic abyss. Separating a freshman from his beloved car is like removing Sandy Koufax'left arm or severing Mrs. Miller's vocal cords. Without his car the freshman is only half the person heonce was. He fondles his car keys constantly. He watches T.V. and cries during the Fordcommercials. He stays in his room a lot. After the most violent withdrawal symptoms have subsided, thefreshman learns that perhaps he may continue living after all. He discovers that most of the other dormies don't have cars either, and he takes heart. He learns that he can make an evening by going to a danceand then walking his date to one of the "realiables" on High or Garden Streets. He learns that his rightthumb is the most valuable part of his anatomy. He finds that he seldom has to amble further than theVU before a sympathetic upper classman heeds his animated plea and offers him transport to the city.He becomes accustomed to seeing girls rather risk an attack by Sophomoric Lecner Junior or Senior,than walk up the hill. The freshman's scope of activities has broadened now, but he has an insatiablecraving for something outside his grasp. Rumors have wafted to his ears of exotic hotspots, such asSehome Hill and Chuckanut Drive. He realizes that he is still missing out. "After all," posed a frustratedrelisher of womankind recently, "How much can you get on the Omega porch?* The freshman greets this challenge with tro-jan determination. With the proper incentive, he will use any means possible to obtaina vehicle. If he discovers that he cannot steal anyone's keys, he is prepared to sell his belongings andsign himself into slavery to acquire the necessary cash to rent a car on the upperclassmen's blackmarket. The enterprising freshman, having surmounted the final stumbling block in the path of his socialgratification, now has become a man. His grade-point may be non-existent, he may be too poor to remain in school, and his future may rest in the hands of local board No. 6, but at least he has the satisfactionof knowing that he has solved the dilemma which has threatened every college freshman since theinvention of the wheel: "How do you survive without a car?"

The two victories put them in the semifinals of the 20team tournament, Saturday against the host Meraloma team. Playing in what officials called the bestgame of the weekend, Western fell 16-14, but battled the eventual co-champs until the final whistle.Western opened the scoring midway through the first half when winger Ron Lealos blocked a kick,recovered the ball near the goal line and dove into the endzone for a try. Herb (Sudden Death) Careymade the score 5-0 with the conversion. In the final minutes of the half the Meralomas went ahead 8-5on two quick tries and a conversion. The Viks came back to tie the score early in the half on a try byBob Unick. A blocked Western punt following the kick-off gave the Lomas five easy points and the leadagain 13-8. Carey tightened the score to 13-11 with a 30 yard penalty kick from the right side of thefield. All-B.C. fullback Barry Bur-nam put the game out of reach a few minutes later with 25 yard dropkick between a crowd of players. Coming back again, the Viks closed the scoring on a try by scrumhalf Paul Barstrad, after a breakaway run by Ron Lealos. Rugby referee follows the ball Rugby'scomplexities leave many fans in a state of utter confusion until someone finally scores. The bounce ofthe ball often determines whether the referee blows his whistle or not. Situations left up to the referee's judgement: Knock-on: a minor infraction caused when a player fumbles or bats the ball forward. Theresult is a set scrum at the point of the knock-on. Five-yard scrum: occurs when the defending teamtouches the ball down in the end zone after being forced behind the goal line. A set scrum results on the five yard line. 25-yard drop out: occurs when the defending team downs the ball in me end zone afterthe opposing causes the ball to cross the goal line. The defending team can drop kick the ball fromthe 25-yard line. MT. BAKER ENDS THURSDAY Super Mother Superior VS.

The exhibit, which runs through Friday, April 26, is open 8 a.m. to 5p.m. and 7 to 10 p.m. weekdays. Vernon Grey, director of Attica Gallery in Seattle, is on campus todayto review the works. The exhibit has already been juried by five students, elected by the seniors who areexhibiting. f: On Campus with MaxShuIman (By the author of "Rally Round the Flag, Boys!", "DobieGillis," etc.) WAS KEATS THE BOB DYLAN OF HIS DAY? Who was the greatest of the EnglishRomantic Poets- Byron, Shelley or Keats? This question has given rise to many lively campusdiscussions and not a few stabbings. Let us today try to find an answer. First, Keats (or The LouisvilleSlugger, as he is commonly called.) Keats' talent bloomed early. While still a schoolboy at St.Swithin's he wrote his epic lines: / / / am good I get an apple, So I don't whistle in the chapel. From thisdistinguished beginning he went on to write another 40 million poems, an achievement all the moreremarkable when you consider that he was only five feet tall! I mention this fact only to show thatphysical problems never keep the true artist from creating. Byron, for example, was lame. Shelleysuffered from prickly heat all winter long. Nonetheless, these three titans of literature never stoppedwriting poetry for one day. Nor did they neglect their personal lives. Byron, a devil with the ladies, wasexpelled from Oxford for dipping Nell Gwynne's pigtails in an inkwell. (This later became known as GuyFawkes Day.) He left England to fight in the Greek war of independence. He fought bravely and well, butwomen were never far from his mind, as evidenced by these immortal lines: How splendid it is to fightfor the Greek, But I don't enjoy it half as much as dancing cheek to cheek. While Byron fought inGreece, Shelley stayed in England, where he became razor sharpener to the Duke of Gloucester.Shelley was happy in his work, as we know from his classic poem, Hail to thee, blithe strop, but nomatter how he tried he was never able to get a proper edge on the Duke's razor, and he was soonbanished to Coventry. (This later became known as The Industrial Revolution.) One wonders howShelley's lifeâ€”and the course of English poetryâ€”would have differed if Personna Super StainlessSteel Blades had been invented 200 years earlier. For Personna is a blade that needs no stropping,honing or whetting. It's sharp when you get it, and sharp it stays through shave after luxury shave. Heretruly is a blade fit for a Duke or a freshman. Moreover, this Personna, this jewel of the blade-maker's art,this boon to the cheek and bounty to the dewlap, comes to you both in double-edge style and Injectorstyle. Get some now during "Be Kind to Your Kisser Week." But I digress. Byron, I say, was in Greeceand Shelley in England. Meanwhile Keats went to Rome to try to grow. Who does not remember hiswistful lyric: Although I am only five feet high, Some day I will look in an elephant's eye. But Keats didnot grow. His friends, Shelley and Byron, touched to the heart, rushed to Rome to stretch him. This toofailed. Then Byron, ever the ladies man, took up with Lucrezia Borgia, Catherine of Aragon, and AnnieOakley. Shelley, a more domestic type, stayed home with his wife Mary and wrote his famous poem: /love to stay home with the missus and write, And hug her and kiss her and give her a bite. 1 TXvrviW'i yMary Shelley finally got so tired of being bitten that she went into another room and wrote Frankenstein.Upon reading the manuscript, Shelley and Byron got so scared they immediately booked passage hometo England. Keats tried to go too, but he was so small that the clerk at the steamship office couldn'tsee him over the top of the counter. So Keats remained in Rome and died of shortness. Byron andShelley cried a lot and then together composed this immortal epitaph: Good old Keats, he might havebeen short, But he was a great American and a heck of a good sport. * * * Â©1968, Max Shulman Truth, not poetry, is the concern of Personna, and we tell you truly that you'll not find a better shavingcombination than Personna and Burma-Shave, regular or menthol. ---------- Western Front - 1968 April 16 - Page 16 ---------- 16 Western Front Tuesday, April 16, 1968 Campus news briefs Radio clubbers meet The WesternAmateur Radio Club will meet at 7 p.m. tomorrow in Room 11A of the Coffee Shop.

They are: (1) organization, (2} involvement, (3) activities, ana (4) relations. All of these are essential for an effective student government. I will explaineach briefly. First, we must be organized. This requires communication, coordination, and a definitionof the functions of certain offices. The Legislature, Executive, Inter-hall Council, Off Campus InterhallCouncil, and Off Campus Student Union should have cross representation. The Vice President shouldbecome Speaker of the Legislature. I would also create an advisory board made up of dorm, club, and off campus leaders to meet with the vice president to coordinate events and to serve as a link betweenstudents and student government. Second, we must get more people involved in student government to alleviate the problems we have. For example, there are problems with the bookstore concerning prices of books and general supplies, postal facilities, and profit. We must put more students on the bookstoreboard, where problems start and where they can end. The same is true for the Publications. Board. Wemust also get more student voice in the administrative and academic affairs of the college by movingstudents into the departmental meetings and getting better representation on the proposed AcademicSenate. Activities is a third area where we must have students involved and provide better service forstudents. People from off campus and each dorm should be on Activities Commission. This would provide communication links and a larger work force. Fourth is relations with Bellingham. We can mutuallybenefit each other by working together on projects like Homecoming and the school levies. These aresome of the things I would like to do for you if elected. Please remember to vote for your candidates andChoice '68 on Wednesday. Noel Bourasaw . Western. unfortunately does not have enough classes thatprovide background for students who are confused by events and questions in everyday news. It is timefor students to establish their own experimental school that will offer informal classes about Black Power, popular music, national election-year politics, racism and many other topics. I have surveyed thefaculty for the last two months and have found 30 faculty members who volunteered ideas or offered toteach pilot courses in such a school. Your president must be a leader, not just a representative. Hemust be innovative and always aware of ideas from many students all over campus. I personally knowhundreds of students from whom I can appoint student officers and fill vital positions on student-facultycommittees. When I appoint a representative to the Bookstore Board, I will ask him to push for moremail-and check lines and an eventual rebate system for those students who buy all their supplies there. Ihave talked with the manager of the Chamber of Commerce about forming a committee of both chambermembers and students to investigate student complaints about housing and rent. If you write a letter tothe Western Front with a suggestion or complaint or if you speak up at any meeting you attend nextyear, you can expect me to contact you and offer you a job in student government to solve your problem. I resigned as editor of this newspaper last fall to point out the lack of coordination between differentbodies controlling student publications. I rewrote the publications code and it was passed by thelegislature but vetoed by the president. If elected, I will try to pass this bill to give you a direct channelfor criticism of the newspaper and annual. Students to express choice for President nationwideBalloting for Choice '68, first nationwide college presidential poll, will take place in conjunction withAssociated Students voting tomorrow. Students can indicate their choices for president and comment on the war, bombing of Vietnam and urban problems. The sponsors, Time, Inc. and Univac Division ofsperry Rand Corp., hope to receive at least two million returns from more than 1,500 campuses. Theresults are intended to show how America's college population really feels about candidates andissues. The promoters also hope it will prove to newspaper editors that students areâ€”believe it or notâ€” really individuals. If the New Hampshire primary proved nothing else, they say, it showed thatcollegians are not all Far Leftists, Far Rightists, Far In-Betweeners or Far Nothings. "This endlessjournalistic game of lumping all students into one vast and grotesquely misleading generalizationcontinues." Jim Roy, of Choice '68 said. "The archetypal collegian, it now appears, is no longer thestudent leftist with his picket sign and smoldering draft card. The 'average' college student right now,today, is the 'concerned' college student . . . . "The idealistic gleam of such a student portrait willgo.far, no doubt, towards re-establishing middle class America's faith in its gold-plated youth." Forinstance, typical of editorial reaction to sen. Eugene McCarthy's collegiate campaign legions, Roysaid, was that of the New York Times: "Sen. McCarthy has managed to persuade great numbers ofconcerned youth that it is possible to make effective protest against existing American policies andpracticies by traditional democratic means." Choice '68 has been endorsed by both the YoungRepublicans and Young Democrats. AS candidates, amendment face voters tomorrow A full ballotconfronts voters tomorrow in the Associated Students spring election. In addition to AS officers, there will be three constitutional amendments, two opinion polls and Choice '68, the national collegiate presidential primary. Election times are 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. and 5 to 6:30 p.m. in the Viking and RidgewayCommons; and 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. in the Coffee Shop, VU foyer, and Gym foyer. Candidates and officersare: President: Noel Bourasaw, Greg Jones. Vice-president: Dave Davis. Legislature (five seats): ChrisCondon, Steve Cooper, Al Doan, Bob Hicks, Jerry Jazbec, Gordon Kalich, Bill King, Ruth McConnell,John Nestor. Associated Men students president: Forrest Anderson, John Mollan, Paul Lohnes, DanWindisch. Associated Women Students (AWS) president: Barbara Sturck-ler. AWS vice-president:Heather Highmiller, Vicky Wilson. AWS treasurer: Linda Bridges. AWS secretary: Cathie Martin.Constitutional amendments on the ballot include: Article IV, Section 4, part a: "The members of thecabinet shall be the vice-president, director of union facilities, activities commissioner, director offinance, director of public relations and those additional persons appointed to the cabinet at thepresident's discretion. The president shall preside and use the cabinet as an advisory and coordinatingagency. Regular meetings shall be held." Article III, Section 1, part b: "All paid cabinet appointmentsmade by the AS President must be approved by a majority of the Legislature. All other appointments shall be made in writing . to the Legislature at regularly scheduled meetings. Such appointments shall bevalid unless the Legislature shall dissent within seven (7) days by a vote of one-third plus one (1/3 plus 1)of the members voting and present." Article IV, Section 5, part a: "The Activities Commission shall bethe programming agency of the Associated Students. The commission shall be composed of sixmembers: the commissioner who shall preside; social issues chairman, fine arts chairman, specialevents chairman, social chairman, and recreation chairman." The first amendment replaces theNational student Association (NSA) representative with the director of public relations. The NSArepresentative will be placed under ^Legislature. The second bill changes the present legislative approvalof cabinet appointments from 2/3 vote to a simple majority. This lt;s hoped to reduce the friction thatsometimes is evident between the executive and legislative branches, says AS president DanFredrickson. The third bill changes the membership of the Activities Commission. The evaluation andpersonnel chairman is moved under the director of public relations, so that recruiting can be done for all of student government, not just the Activities Commission, says Fredrickson. Polls on the ballot, inaddition to the Choice '68 national collegiate presidential primary, will ask: "DO you favor the NorthCascades Park Proposal?'* and "Do you favor lowering the voting age in Washington state from age 21?"The wizard (James Korski) admonishes the prince (Joseph Grant) in the Western Players production of"Beauty and the Beast," to be presented in five showings Thursday through Saturday.

I can best utilize pressure to student's advantage inregard to the book store, parking, rugby, saga dress rules, dorm hours, and women visitation to men's dorms. Students should make their own decisions on these matters. I am reluctant to take a shovel ina sandbox government which is little more than an extension of the dean of students' office. Before we can govern ourselves we must break this tie. Noel Bourasaw and myself are best qualified to do. thisjob. BOB HICKS AS legislature I am campaigning for legislator because I feel the student legislatureshould be a problem-solving board and I feel I have the experience and capabilities to contribute to theproblem-solving process. As Summer managing, news, copy and feature editor of the studentnewspaper I have become personally acquaihtedwith the key administrators and many key facultymembers. I know how to present the students' position to them and would like to put my experience towork for the entire student body. JERRY JAZBEC AS legislature In the next few years Western will befaced with great changes in many areas of government and administration. Because of this trend, it isnow necessary to plan for the highly qualified leaders in all positions of the student government. Nothaving been a member of legislature tends to limit the garnering of experience. However, as a memberof the 1967 summer Board of Control, I have gained a working knowledge of procedures and needs. Thevaried experiences I have gained will surely help me to develop the long range plans necessary for ourcampus. GORDON KALICH AS legislature I believe that one of the most important qualifications of alegislator is that he possess the willingness to work hard for and with the students. He must be willing to make personal sacrifices to fulfill the responsibilities of his office. It is the duty of a good legislatorto maintain contact with the students and listen to their ideas. If their ideas are practical the Legislator should try his best to see that the ideas are acted upon. It is this type of legislator that I intend to be. If elected, I will not forget my responsibilities to you. WILLIAM KING AS legislature There is a cryingneed on this campus for stronger student government. Stronger government will start with the Leg-? slature. But it won't start with legislators who always think of past action, and it won't start withlegislators worried about simply digging up facts.

The result was the lowering of the legislature's prestige in the eyes of the administration.These occasional mistakes must be eliminated if student government is going to expand its power. If aperson cannot write his own name how can he be expected to write a book? Every bill presented tothe legislature should be fully investigated and every member should know all the facts. This is theonly way that mistakes will be eliminated and power increased. JOHN NESTOR AS legislatureApathy is such a wonderful thing: just ask the administration. As long as we students are willing to'take it in the shorts" the administration is going to do with us just what it damn well pleasec. It seemswe students are the first ones to complain^but the last ones to act. We forget that our government canact against the administration: but it takes you. Go to the government; our government can't come toyou. The administration may not listen to three or four students, but it will to three or four thousand!Get involved; voice your gripes; vote.

"For to be idle is to become a stranger unto the seasons, and to stepout of life's procession, that marches in majesty arid proud submission towards the infinite." â€”TheProphet. Student government must not be satisfied with the achievements we have accomplished sofar. We must strengthen those rights and responsibilities we have obtained. We must continue toenter every area of student involvement on Western's campus. Student government must set newgoals, develop new ideas, strengthening the purpose for student government â€” to represent thestudents. If we can accomplish these tasks, student government will not only solve the past andpresent problems, but will focus and begin to reflect on the future problems facing this institution, andset an example for future student governments to focus toward. ROGER JENKINS AS vice-presidentwrite-in The incumbent AS president recently vetoed a bill which would have allowed my name, RogerJenkins, and two others, to be placed on the election ballot There is a constitutional amendment onthis ballot which, if passed, would invalidate the outmoded mandate which Mr. Fred-rickson used toveto the bill. This is only one example of the self-interest within our student government. I, as a write-incandidate, believe politicing is not the answer. The answer is on honest and concerned governmentwhich will benefit the whole and not just those few that take part. My basic concern is the studentspirit on the campus. As a united student body we can then persue student needs such as: (1)adequate parkingfacilities. (2) a revision of the student bookstore policies (3) an improved student-oriented athletic program and, (4) a concerned and active Vice President. AMS president FORRESTANDERSON AMS president AMS needs more activities, a larger budget for its activities, and moreactive membership to become a beneficial organization. To attract active membership an interesting schedule of events must be planned. Here are a few of my ideas for AMS expansion. 1) Membershipdrive. 2) AMS day (including a car show, car rally, and booths and demonstrations by clubs) 3) "DatingHabits of Western Girls"publication. 4) Poll concerning the accuracy of the Washington state Pre-College Test. 5) Investigation of the pros and cons of panty-raids. 6) Bookstore Committee 7) 'TeacherEvaluation and Course Critique" publication. 8} Athletic Committee 9) Speakers Bureau 10) Dance Concert Committee JOHNMOLLAN AMS president Student Government suffers from a wave of apathy due to centralization of student activities. AMS is one of the few organizations not subject tocontrol by Activities Commission. The individual may still make his wishes known through directparticipation in AMS. A candidate, when elected, must fulfill his promises. As the record of AMSactivities shows, I have more than fulfilled mine. If re-elected, I plan to increase the scope of AMSactivities in accordance with demands of the student body, to include such activities as a speaker's fund and an orphan's fund for Vietnam, to name, but a few. DAN WINDISCH AMS president AMS is anactive organization. This year AMS put on more activities than any other club on campus. AMS,however, does have a major problem: this problem is participation. An example of this is my owjielection to AMS as my classes representative. There were two people nominated and would you believethat out of the 3,665 members of AMS we had a tie vote. It was 4 to 4. This needs to be changed. Theformer president and vice-president did not change it and the third candidate has no AMSexperience. AMS needs to be changed. The choice is yours. PAUL LOHNES AMS President It ismy feeling, after watching AMS in action for twoyears. that the organization lacks just that: action.The $1,500 (approximately) budgeted yearly to AMS is a wasteful expenditure and should be spentelsewhere. The events sponsored by AMS can be organized more efficient-continued on page 3)Correction The Western Front last week misreported in the story on the Placement Centerdemonstrations that a meeting involving three students and the dean of students led to the taking ofnames of student demonstrators.

Cary Mason, who did notappear at the hearings, is still subject to disciplinary action, the committee said. Dr. LawrenceBrewster, acting committee chairman, read a four-page statement of the committee's decision, inwhich four points were made: 1. There were "substantialirregularities" in identifying the personsinvolved in the demonstrations, including one complete misidentification. The committee doubted the "status of the rules" which the defendents were charged with violating. 2. The committee reprimanded the defendants "for what it regards as numerous instances of unacceptable behavior." The reoortcalled conduct during the hearings "abusive and-offensive," and censured those who usedthe hearing "as an occasion to hurl deprecations at the world, rather than for replying to the charges against them."The report said the committee was unimpressed "by the argument that interference with militaryinterviews is justified by the claim that only a small number of students are interested in suchinterviews." The committee said it "sternly reprimands the defendants for their actions and wordsdirected toward Dean Hitchman." It questioned "the implication that Dean Hitchman has anantagonistic attitude toward students in general or any group of students in particular. 3. Thecommittee also admonished "the appropriate officers of the college for seemingly failing to act inthe development and promulgation of rules according to the full letter and spirit of the Navigator." 4.The report recommended that a committee be appointed to make recommendations on recruiting andplacement problems; that procedures and rules governing student behavior be put in a central file forstudent inspection; and that steps be taken to formalize rules and procedures for DisciplinaryCommittee hearings. The report was signed by faculty members A. Hugh Fleetwood, StanleyLeProtti; students John Dombroski and Martha Gregory; and acting chairman Lawrence Brewster. Thecommittee had met "a number of times" this weekend to draw up the statement, according toBrewster. In public hearings last Wednesday and Thursday, students charged with violations disputed the means of identification and the specific laws allegedly violated. They had been identified through a Bellingham Herald photograph, personal recognition by the dean of students and the campusmarshals, lists of students who entered the Placement Center and did not check out, and by signedstatements released by the sit-ins. In the hearings Wednesday night, Dr. Lawrence Brewster wasnamed to chair the committee, after Dean James Hitchman disqualified himself and PresidentCharles J. Flora's replacement, Dean of Research Herbert C. Taylor, who is also National Guard reserves officer, was voted down by the students charged with violations. All but two entered "not guilty" pleas Wednesday night. Charges against a third claimed "guilty and not guilty" were dropped Thursday night. On Thursday more than 450 persons jammed L-4 to hear the students answer the charges. ChrisCondon said he was "bitter at the proceedings" since he was being tried "by a system that preacheshypocrisy." He said he was against "the whole bloody generation that runs this college." Positions ofcandidates vary widely (Continued from page 2) ly and with better re suits by other planning groups;i.e., Activities Commission. MEN!!! If you feel that AMS is a worthwhile organization fulfilling adesperate need on this campus, I urge you to vote AGAINST me. However, if you can see no tangiblebenefits from the exi stance, vote for me and abolish AMS. AWS president BARBARA STURCKLERAWS president If not now â€”when? If not here â€”where? If not meâ€”who? The primary responsibility of AWS President is to represent the majority of the women students on Campus. One way of achieving this goal is through a better communication with the dorms, off-campus houses and the AWS cabinet.Solution â€”a newsletter and personal contact. Extending AWS is the second goal. A wider variety ofprogramming (pro and con issues, a career board, retreats, and debate- dessert sessions with theprofessors) mixed with a lot of freshness would create more enthusiasm. Better just smile andremember me: Barbara Jeanne Sturck-ler. AWS vice-president HEATHER HIGHMILLER AWS vice-presicent I would like to suggest the following as ideals to be considered by every woman student:1. The initiation of a bulletin for the living group informing them of events, work parties... 2. The initiationof a part-time job listing . . . 3. The initiation of a newsletter . . . 4. The initiation of dorm and off-campus visits to meet and inform you of AWS... 5. To co-ordinate and team with the other officers inpresenting you with the traditional and new programs . . There are many more ideas and you areresponsible for my enthusiasm and desire to work for you. VICKY WILSON AWS vice-president TheAssociated Women Students can be whatever organization the women on this campus want it tobe. The office of AWS vice president is somewhat open, as to function and duties, but through thisoffice I would like to channel my efforts to make this the club mat you want. I'd like to hear and workon your ideas and suggestions. I now serve as social chairman for AWS, and worked extensively lastyear, so I feel I do know much about the organization. I am very interested and enthused about AWSand would like to play an active part in it by serving as your vice-president.

(Photo by Bruce e.t.)Reg Butler, who said he only stayed in the Placement Center briefly while conferring with a sit-in,protested the "ignorance of the goon squad" that collected the information. "I am a liberator," hesaid. "I will no longer play your court games. I apologize to no one." Brian Hammel said, "I intend tobreak the rules of this institution which defeat the purposes of the institution." Wayne Halvorson said,"I am not bound to laws I had no part ?n making." Tony Morefield, who said he spent three years in theMarines, declared, "I cannot and will not stand by and let an organization like this come in and takepeople who don't know what it's all about." The board recognized the statement sent in by theAssociate Students Legislature "objecting to the arraignment" of these students. Before recessing,committee member Dr. Hugh Fleetwood told the audience, "Students should distrust on evidence, butdon't distrust the workings of this panel on idle fantasy." He had earlier admonished the spectators forrowdiness, saying, "You people stand to interfere with the proceedings of the board."

Not only because the administration's approachto this case is questionable, but also because the defendants themselves, particularly the leaders,made it so with their undignified and insulting behavior. It is true Chris Condon and Reg Butlerdemonstrated great personal courage in speaking out for their beliefs, as did the other 19 students stillcharged for sticking together. And they all deserve respect for doing so. But it was not necessary for Mr.Condon to direct his frustrations at the college administration, which bears no responsibility for the war.Nor was there anything constructive in the clumsy attempts to ridicule Dean Hitchman or the disgustinginvective directed against the Committee. The contention that the administration violated properprocedure is unfounded. "The Navigator" explicitly states, on page 20, that the Disciplinary Committee isempowered to try students charged with violating college regulations; and every procedural conditionstated on pages 22 and 23 was met. Nor can Bob Partlow's argument that he is not bound by any rule he had no part in making, be accepted. Although it may not be democratic, it certainly is clear, on page 20, that every student accepts as a condition of his enrollment the regulations and policies of the college. Itis true the Navigator states that "all policies pertaining to student behavior shall be made readilyavailable in writing for student reference." However, it is reasonably implied the college also has therightâ€”indeed, the obligationâ€”to maintain order and protect the rights of others. For instance, the rights of those students who wanted to interview the recruiters. So, technically, the administration is right. But the college officials went much farther than they needed to go in this case. Beyond meeting the twoabove-mentioned responsibilities, the administration should be more tolerant of demonstrations, sit-ins,panty raids, and the like. For, if Dean Hitchman and other administration officials will recall their owncollege days, they surely remember that students must be able to let off steam now and then, and that a good deal of this sort of activity is precisely that. If they did not recognize this immediately, certainlythe carnival atmosphere of the hearing should have proved it. The administration must protect propertyand human rights. But by going beyond this, by pressing charges, it simply demonstrates its lack ofunderstanding of the students. â€”Don B.

That's becausenearly 5 million students on 1,300 campuses will be able to voice their choice for U.S. presidentthrough the poll. Choice '68, not Indiana, will be the first primary in which Robert Kennedy and EugeneMcCarthy meet headon. Richard Nixon will be running against opposition from the right and left,because the ballot offers Ronald Reagan as well as Nelson Rockefeller, John Lindsey and others.Choice '68 will reveal who has the support of the college students, and this could mean quite a bit at theparty conventions this summer. Maybe more in November. Back at home base, don't forget theAssociated Students. The FRONT has provided space in this issue for the candidates to state theirplatforms. Tonight, they will participate in the Popcorn Forum at 8 in the Coffee Shop. While the Western Front is not endorsing a candidate for office this year, we urge you to go to the polls. Before you think that your vote won't count, just remember: â€”In 1948 Lyndon Johnson won his Senate seat by only 87 votes out of a million cast. â€”In the same year, President Truman was elected because he carriedthe key states of Ohio and California by an average of less than one vote per precinct. â€”In 1875, onevote made France a Republic rather than a monarchy. â€”Last week, a student at the 30,000-enrollment University of Washington won student body president by 99 votes. And if you're a senior orplan not to return to Western next year, remember before you pass up the polls that the keypersons in most of the candidates' campaigns are seniors. If they're still willing to push for somethingthey won't even benefit from, there must be an ingredient in these elections to make the AS meaningful to more than those who run the show from the top floor of the Viking Union. â€”Jeanne Doering Kennancomments It's too bad that George Kennan wasn't at the disciplinary hearings last week. The formerambassador to Russia would have had an answering word for those students who blamed the college foreverything from discrimination to the Vietnam war. In the "New York Times Magazine" of Jan. 31,1968,he wrote: "The world seems to be full today of embattled students . . . That these people are embattled is unquestionable. That they are really students, I must be permitted to doubt." He added later in thearticle, "Willingness to accept, in principle, the workings of a system based on the will of themajority, even when you yourself are in the minority, is simply the essence of democracy." Hemade other good points about the "student left" and student action. If you're dissatisfied with the angrywords and piles of pass-outs, go to the library and read his article. It won't take long, but it should helpto put into perspective recent events. â€”J.D. Letters to the Editor Brick-brack Editor: I have beenpeeking apprehensively out at our new red square, wondering when the expanding circle of brick isgoing to engulf the whole campus, and I'd like to ask the parties responsible for this atrocity what thehell's going on here. Now I'm sure that at some point in your scheming it must have occurred to you thata little grass and some flowers, and maybe a few more trees might have been nice. I find it hard tobelieve that nightmares of a hippie colony on the green scared you away from that idea. You mighthave provided an invitation for our burgeoning flock of cultural revolutionists to dissipate their publicardor in private orgies among the hyacinths, but no! You had to go and sculpt a collage of Hiroshimaon the morning after to provide both in* spiration and ammunition for our first riot. Frankly, I think it's afascist plot to wipe us out â€” or least keep us from reproducing.

If equality in society is what the problem is, as I think it is, whythen must I be told by those who seek equality that we are not equal? Steve Balogh Senior, sociologyCemmission undemocratic Editor: While listening to Greg Jones and Noel Bourasaw giving campaignspeeches, I became aware of one issue that especially concerns all students. This issue is theproblem of who should sponsor activities and when. This issue only seems to bother students whentwo groups want to sponsor an event at the same time. Dorms, clubs, and organizations all want tosponsor dances, concerts, and other activities. At the present time Activities Commission is theonly group that can "legally" sponsor mixers and concerts. It is undemocratic for any oneorganization to control all mixers, all concerts, or all of ,any. activity; Eaclkgcoup.should be allowed oneactivity (of their own choosing) per quarter. A solution to the problem is to set up an agency to control all student activities. This agency would control all groups (on or off campus), including ActivitiesCommission. It would schedule the time and place of each event. I suggest that this agency consistof an equal number of AMS and AWS members and a faculty-advisor. These members from AMS andAWS should consist of a representative from each club and organization. Since AMS and AWSrepresent all the students at Western, and these organizations need a bigger part in studentgovernment, this suggestion could help solve two problems. The Associated Students presidentialcandidate who decides to use this plan will receive my vote on election day. Forrest AndersonSophomore, art Drake story errors Editor: With reference to the article in the issue of the WesternFront of 16 April telling about my experiences in Latin America I would like to offer some comments. 1.There are not less than nine major errors of fact in the brief article, some of which are of noconsequence, such as that of granting me my degree at Wisconsin rather than at Berkeley, or calling acow skin rug a bear skin. Other errors are perhaps due to a misunderstanding of the "jargon" used bythe person being interviewed resulting in the statement that "Only a social revolution". . . will accomplish a change in role occupants." This is not my idea of a social revolution and is not what happened inMexico. 2. Much more important is the error that impugns my integrity as a scholar. I did not"infiltrate" anything in Bellavista.

Ifwe are to talk about law and order, why have blacks had to take to the streets to get the rights they were legally granted upon Emancipation, more than a century ago? If whites are so law abiding, why areAmerican schools still segregrated, north and south, since the Supreme Court judged that case, with notimetable and no effective sanctions in 1954? And, if you all take such a dim view of riot, why don't yourfederal marshals make state officials in the south cough up federal money due blacks under farmand health programs? As a praying liberal, have you, personally, ever pressured a realtor, a bank, or an insurance company to grant equal credit to blacks?

Aura Cuevas Carlton Faculty Wife, enraged Parkingsuggestions Editor: I have two suggestions regarding parking problems: 1. A few more spaces could becreated if the city and/or the college would paint lines on the street, complete with maneuveringspaces, as downtown. This would be most helpful to the hordes of people who "congest" the Higginsonlot because they come from the north. To be able to park on Indian or Garden would save them muchtime and gasoline and would siphon off some of the through traffic up Highland â€” traffic which, by theway, has to move up the slope faster than 20 mph to make it up at all? 2. When feeding people became burdensome to the college, it farmed out this activity to Saga Food. Why not do the same with parking? Surely some parking Cut F l o w e rs for your room from yiof^r 1426 Cornwall Ave. 733-7630 lotfranchiser would have the capital to provide better facilities for less cost to the user. The cost ofpolicing as well as of maintenance would be reduced and that money channeled elsewhere. Such aservice might even allow for occasional use, visitor use, and the like, and the consumer would pay forexactly what he gets. Finally, any parking and traffic reforms ought to make some provision forloading zones, so that you don't run the risk of being ticketed if the person you're waiting to pick up islate. Nancy B. Charlton Graduate Assistant, English AS convention tally Editor: I would like to reflectmy disappointment in the proceedings at the Associated Students nominating convention held lastFriday night in the Viking Union. The incident I am speaking of is in Die chair's decision not to announcethe final tally of the delegate votes for the prospective candidates. I feel that this is the height of theconvention and those who do not keep a running tally as the delegations announce their votes do not get a clear picture of the strengths of the candidates. I spoke to the Speaker of the convention, DaveCunningham, about this action and he has valid reasons as to why he did not make the announcement.I simply would like to see that this does not happen next year, because I seriously feel that it detractsfrom the excitement of the convention. Dave did a competent job as speaker and should becommended for it. One other disturbing fact is that the Western Front, in trying to give us a tally of thepresidential candidates, printed incorrect results. Thanks for trying anyway. Rosemary ThorsonJunior, Geography Editor's note: Since nominating convention chairman Dave Cunningham refused tomake public the results of the voting, the Front used tallies made by two staff members. Last year,voting results were published. We regret chairman Cunningham decided to keep this vital informationfrom the student body this year. Rules defend immorality Editor: We are witnessing today thebreakdown of respect for law and order in our society. This is the inevitable result of circumstances inwhich rules, regulations, laws, established policies and procedures are repeatedly used to perpetuateinjustice and to defend immorality. If we wish to restore law and order to the world, we must returnjustice and human dignity to their proper place as the highest values to which man can aspire. If theadult community and the powers that be do not meet this responsibility, then it is up to those of us whoare "hip" to exercise this responsibility for them. The procedures of the College Marcelle CosmeticsPrescriptions * STAR DRUG REXALL STATE HOLLY Disciplinary Committee in their hearings withregard to recent student protest demonstrations are just another example as to why demonstrations, sit-ins and protest marches are now necessary in order to bring about a confrontation with the realissues of today's world.

TadMelbin Lecturer, Spanish Defends lighting Editor: The recent Rod McKuen concert seemed to givemany students the idea that Western Washington State College is equipped with sub-standardlight operators. I can sympathize with those who complained because of the pin-head exposurebeamed to Mr. McKuen's head. If I had been in the audience I too would no doubt have taken theoffensive in saying that the lighting job was a bit weird as far as per formers go. However, may I pointout that by cutting rehearsal, planned for 5 p.m. (he showed up at performance time) McKuen made itpossible for the light operators to know only minutes before showtime that he did not want any colored gel interspersed with his songs and poetry. As Mr. McKuen said "Pm a songwriter, not a.performer." Therefore, at showtime we were told he wanted one lone spotlight (two had been prepared) to light his head. Light operators are contin- . ually faced with problems of timing because they mustoperate almost spontaneously^ Any crazy lighting effects come as a direct result from the stage orfloor manager traveling with the performer. Operators do not have cue sheets or program layouts. Theirinstructions are given to them seconds before a change in lighting occurs. Unfortunately, during the Mc. Kuen concert, one mishap did occur. The adjusting of the tension release on the spotlight caused aslight movement of the light which, when projected hundreds of feet away was very noticeable andannoying. However, I'd like to point out that pin-pointing a person with a sphere of light is like trying tokeep your hook, line, and sinker directly beneath the bottom of the boat JL Tlrouefte"by (omngeblossom For the first time, and just in time for you, diamond rings are blossoming into something asfresh and extraordinary as the feeling of being engaged..

Chris Winsor Junior, Speech Chicago writes BSU Editor: In your issue ofApril 9 there appeared a letter signed by the Black Students Union of WWSC, who took to task whiteliberals for their crime of silence regarding recent events. I am white, although I live in a black section ofSouth Chicago: although I am well to the left of the American "liberal", I believe that the BSU attack was unwarranted and needs an answer. First, middle-class guilt is middle-class guilt, regardless of color.The fact that members of the BSU are at Western indicates that they are better off than their blackbrothers who live around me; college is not in a ghetto life. Second, BSU attacks white liberals fortheir inaction in the face of the white racism which ?s rampant in America. I accuse BSU of evengreater inaction. As I write this letter there are blacks in every city jail from Portland to New Yorkaccused of various crimes during the recent riots. We at the University of Chicago are tryingdesperately to raise bail money for them. How much has BSU raised? Ghetto education is shiteducation. Lousy teachers, lousy schools, huge classes. Right now I'm working with two tutoringprojects trying to give these kids some reason to believe that they are human beings. Does BSU havesuch a program?... Finally, the BSU letter made several sophomoric allusions to violence, to somehowpunishing the white liberals for the sins Western Front S of the white bigots. All I can answer is that Ioppose violence, whether it's napalm in Vietnam or police in Chicago. Anyone living in the ghetto cancount the nights that have passed without gunfire. Black America may turn to violence; but whiteAmerica has committed genocide once already. To be killed unarmed by a racist's shotgun is at leastcourageous. But to be hacked up by a machine gun because you shot with a pistol is stupid. Charles L. Smith University of Chicago Senior,hi story Act for conservation Editor: I would like to comment on the job being done by the Action for Conservation organization recently started in this school. Thesestudents have done a fantastic job of organizing meetings and panel discussions concerning theneed for a National Park in the North Cascades. One thing now needed by the group is support fromtheir fellow students. Anyone who is interested in preserving our forests can be of great help. Thegroup's main objective is to make the community aware of the importance of having a National Park inthe proposed area and also to obtain as much local support as possible. Petitions are going around thecampus concerning the issue. Signatures of support are an important part of this program. Anyonewishing to go a step further is urged to write to Lloyd Meeds to inform him of the sincere concern andinterest that is felt by so many concerning mis controversy. If you have any feelings about this Iurge you to take action. This is one issue that can be swayed by public opinion. Take a stand one wayor the other. Let people know that your opinion is of some consequence. N. M. Knight, Jr. iiyATio^-EXPERIENCE " AND RESPONSIBILITY COUNT VOTE GREG JONES A.S.

The present building isbeing paid off by a $2 amortization fee added to student fees, according to Dr. Howard E. Mitchell,professor of economics and chairman of the Co-Op Advisory Board. The $43,407 profit of the 1966- 67 fiscal year went into inventory expansion and turnover, a sinking fund for facility expansion and a permanent $3,000 fund to cover payments if fee money falls short. A complete set of records is given to each member of the Board. Besides Dr. Mitchell, they are Dr. Moyle F.

A price comparison list shows Western's bookstore textbook prices are about equal to those at Eastern. However, cosmetic and paper supplies prices are higher than at major discount housesdowntown, steinborn said this is because they buy in carload lots, while the Co-op buys only in caselots. There is also a "liberalized buy - back policy," Steinborn said. Now, a book returned in the first two weeks of a quarter is refunded in full, whereas previously it was for only 80 per cent.

Legislature objects to collegedisciplinary board arraignment Two bills concerning the disciplinary hearings were introduced at theAssociated Students Legislature meeting Thursday. One passed and the other was sent into committee. A crowd of about 70 turned up for the meeting in the Viking Union. The amended motions, written byJohn Whitbeck and one co-authored by Dave Cunningham, asked that the AS Legislature go on record"as objecting to the arraignment of students by the college disciplinary board April 17 and 18." The billadded that "the method of identification and arraignment appeared too selective and arbitrary andthe students are now subjected to the consequences of particular rules which were not publicized inan adequate manner." The same motion asked that this statement be given to the disciplinary boardThursday night: "In view of the apparent discrepancy between those rules for determining studentbehavioral discrepancies as cited in 'The Navigator, those cited by the prosecution against the studentsallegedly involved in the disturbance in the Placement Office April 8, and in view of the highly irregularand questionable manner used for positive identification of possible suspects, we respectfullyrequest that the Committee consider these discrepancies carefully before rendering any decisions." Sent to committee was a similar motion to be addressed to the President, dean of men, dean ofstudents "and other concerned parties." The Legislature approved Noel BourasawÂ»s bill "that the ASLegislature recognize the International Strike for Peace, April 26, and ask Western's administrationand faculty to excuse from classes students who participate in the day's activities." Legislator AlDonaldson opposed it, saying the board should not pass on ideologies. Legislators also voted todirect Jon Murray, elections board chairman, to put on Wednesday's ballot those candidates below2.4 g.p.a. whom Murray disqualified last week. According to a constitutional amendment approvedwinter quarter, a person must have a 2.4 to assume office. Affected would be Bob Partlow and RogerJenkins. Partlow introduced the bill. Legislators rejected Dan Fredrickson's appointment of himself tothe Publications Committee. Fredrickson said he "took the liberty to appoint myself since I amaware of the policies now before the board." Partlow said he favors Dave Cunningham, but Donaldsonsupported Fredrickson, saying he seems most qualified. In other business, the Legislatureaccepted a reserve fund policy drawn up by finance director Scott Williams and agreed to put theNorth Cascades Park poll on the spring election ballot. They also sent back to committee a bill tohave AS work with the Activities Commission in coordinating student dramatic productions oncampus. Introduced and sent to committee were a bill to "advise the registrar's office to make GoodFriday a school holiday, and " one to investigate combining the Western Front and Faculty News as "a new Western Washington state College total news agent." Also sent to committee was one askingthe Dean of Students to submit all material for the 1968-69 "Navigator" to AS, warning mat "if this boarddoes not set to see the material prior to its publication, the AS will not recognize the Navigator'sauthority." Fredrickson raps bookstore profits By DAN FREDRICKSON AS president The Student Co-operative Bookstore, commonly known as the Co-op, made a profit of $43,407.49 for the 1966 to '67 year. This is truly an amazing fact. As a freshman I thought the co-op was a non-profit organization, solely inexistence for the students. This is a list of profits for the past six years: 1966-67â€”$43,407.49 1965-66- 36,090.12 1964-65â€” 30,451.46 1963-64- 34,150.89 1962-63- 21,643.82 1961-62- 22,194.52 Thiscomes to a total profit for the past six years of $187,938.30. Our Student Co-operative Bookstore alsosells textbooks at cost plus 20 per cent. This means that if they purchase a book for $10, they sell it tothe students for $12. This simple economics (if economics can ever (Paid political advertising) BOBHICKS candidate for legislature â€” knowledge â€”experience â€”capability be simple). There arenecessary costs involved in selling a book; handling, storage, etc. But as I look at the profit they makeper year and then total up how much I pay per year for books I wonder if possibly some of this profit could not be , returned to the students via lower prices. Another interesting item. The paperbacks have beenmoved to the mezzanine and are now being sold at retail price. This means cost plus 30 per cent. Inother words, if you buy a paperback for $1.30 the bookstore purchased the book for $1.00. Our StudentCo-operative Bookstore is not co-op. They no longer give rebates and last spring quarter they went off the discount system to the principle of standard retail pricing. Is there anything we can do? TheLegislature has asked Dr. Howard E. Mitchell, the chairman of the Bookstore Board, to come to theirmeeting at 4 p.m. Thursday, in VU- 208. If you are interested, please attend.

European squares inspired concepts behind quadrangleEuropean public squares pro-vided inspiration for the quadrangle, now nearing completion. Workmenare installing brick paving in a large area surrounded by Haggard Hall, the humanities building, thenew physics-math- computer center and the future education - psychology building. The quad willbecome Western's public square when all buildings surrounding it are completed and in use. Anestimated 4,000 students will cross it every hour as they change classes. Heavy use makes grass in-feasible, Ibsen Nelsen, architect said. As new construction moves the campus southwardaccording to plan, the quad will become the geographic as well as the functional center of thecollege. The original concept of the quadrangle was developed by George Bartholic, campusplanning consultant. Architectural design was by Nelsen whose observations of European courtyardson a recent tour provided concepts. During early planning, lines were drawn across a plan drawingof the area, connecting each door and walkway opening onto the quad. It was quickly apparentcovered walkways would be impractical. The architect solved this and other problems by paving theentire area with brick laid in a herringbone pattern. Major paths and points of access will be marked by a change in the horizontal pattern of brickwork. Color of the brick was selected to match facades ofsurrounding buildings to visually integrate the design of the area. Greenery to complement theluxuriance of the Old Main quadrangle, whose park-like appearance will be preserved in the overallcampus plan, will be provided by sycamore trees planted in and around the brickwork. These fast-growing trees will attain a height of 30 to 40 feet in five years and will eventually be 60 to 70 feet tall with a spread of 40 to 50 feet. Effective use of lighting and the large, circular Charles H. Fisher MemorialFountain will add to the attractiveness of the area. The fountain, named for a former college president,was contributed by his family and friends. A coffee shop in the European style is to be located in theeducation - psychology building. Flans may include tables arranged on the edge of the quad and in anenclosed courtyard. Paving will be largely completed by the end of April. The remainder of the quad,except for the area adjacent to the education - psychology building, is scheduled for completion by theend of the year. Attica Gallery director finds 'decadence' in senior exhibit Editor's note: The followingreview of the Senior Art Exhibit was written by Vernon Gray, director of the Attica Gallery in Seattle. Theexhibit will be up until Friday in the Western Gallery. Hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and 7 to 10 p.m. Withinthe framework of my duties, as director of the Attica Gallery, lies the constant challenge of selectingwork for Exhibition. As a result, I view varied works constantly â€” including works by students,professionals â€” and others. It must be understood that I view all work as a dealer. An impact of colorwas most evident on entering the gallery. My pleasure in viewing this surge of energy was short lived,when I realized that most of the artists were not aware of how to express themselves with their color.Most of the paintings were without direction; they lacked depth and perspective. The exceptions were tobe found with Gary Hallgren's "The Followers of Diogenes," and the works of Mark J. Phipps. Theworks of Mark Phipps show a good use of color and form. He expresses an emotional quality, thatlends a sincere depth to his paintings. He seems hindered, however, with a lack of freedom, a timiditywhich should be overcome. Hallgren's, "The Followers of Diogenes," expressed much imagination andforethought. His colors carried a strengh and subtlety throughout the series. The repetitive figures are rich and rewarding in each singular painting, and Hallgren also causes them to flow into contact of union,which brings his series to a fulfilling finish. The welded steel sculpture of Charles Hall is well executed.This artist obviously enjoys his media. He expresses a poetic sympathy with his use of steel and space.One untitled piece I liked in particular, and desired to see it exposed to the natural forces of nature. Thephotographic processes of Steve Johnson were good. Johnson's capability to produce a photograph ofsuch dimensional and rare emotional quality, results in his work becoming painterly. He has gainedinsight to the photographic reproduction. This could be the beginning of a long period of excitingresearch for the artist The etchings of M. W. Fliart really show fine promise. This artist has obviouslyabsorbed her training and has attained a finished quality that was greaiiy lacking throughout most of theExhibition. The crafts lacked inspiration, and as a result were mediocre. There exists a lack of detailand finish, not only in the physical work itself, but in the deeper asthetic qualities that exude the warmthand life of the crafts. I realize I have not mentioned many works by numerous students, as it would beindignant of me to do so. Titles and prices are not important to me â€”. but they are important to thelayman. With only-two exceptions, none of the works on view, within the Gallery, were titled or priced. As students, you have missed an opportunity to develop a knowledge of what is required for exhibition.The presentation of art is of great importance. Good work is devalued when surrounded with make-shift frames, matts, or bases â€” which was most evident in ALL work in the Senior Exhibition. I left thisexhibition with much concern. I did not experience the sense of excitement that should come from thework of young students. My concern was over the lack of any attempt at professional presentation â€”the poor craftsmanship throughout â€” the obvious lack of knowledge as to what is happening today, inthis very exciting world of art â€” there was a decadence expressed within the gallery. A decadence thatcould not come from the outstanding talent of the faculty. I have come away with the impression thatmost of the senior students are not functioning as creative individuals. The faculty can only teach, theartist alone must create and inspire. Brick by brick, the new campus focal pointâ€”the Quadâ€”is slowlyfilling up. Too bad the linoleum people couldn't have given a cost estimate for the plaza, too.

Don Walton andReg Robertson sell mimeographed copies of lecture notes for the two areas. "We expected to make a little money," Walton said, "but the business has grown substantially beyond our expectations."More than 500 subscriptions for humanities notes were sold, he said. About 100 students signed upfor Afro-Asia notes and about 75 for general education 105 and 200. The notes are sold daily, weeklyand onaquar-terly subscription basis. "We were amazed at the legal DToeedures involved," WaKonsaid. "After getting a license to sell, we had to talk with a lawyer about tax forms, payroll accountingand other areas of business." The idea first originated at the University of California at Berkeley, thenit spread to the University of Washington, he said. Dan Fredrickson, AS president, initiated the ideaand introduced a bill to the student legislature asking the AS to sponsor the business, Walton said. ._. TV to be used for classes by 1969, Dr. Riehle says It won't be long until students receive the benefits of instructional television. By fall 1969, according to Dr. Hal Riehle, director of educational media,Western will have two fully operative television studios and a closed circuit system. "We use thesystem now in the student teaching program," Dr. Riehle, professor of education, said.

"Beauty and the Beast." will be presented Thursday through Saturday in theAuditorium. Performance times are 3:45 p.m. Thursday and Friday; 7 p.m. Friday; and 10:30 a.m. and 2 p.m. Saturday. The play has a deep psychological message, says director Gayle Cornelison, besides moralizing that appearances are deceiving. "It follows the traditional telling except for theinclusion ot tne wizard and Mickey, who tell the audience what happens to the Prince before beingturned into the beast," he said. "Beauty and the Beast" first shows a prince exhibiting beastlyqualities. After being imprisoned for 500 years by a wizard he actually turns into a beast who displaysan inward beauty. "The play is saturated with magical effects, which makes it highly complicated from atechnical aspect," added Cornelison, who is also designing the set There will be riggings to enablefour actors to fly across stace Cast members include Hodge, played by Jim Korski; Mickey; SherryKam; the Prince, Joe Grant; and Mr. Clement, Gary Ramey. * Also appearing in "Beauty and theBeast" will be jessamine, played by Sandra Van Arnam; jonquiline, Linda Kettel; and Beauty, played byPam Beckman, who is also making costumes. Lighting sets play mood By STEVE LAMPE NEWSEDITOR Few people realize the work involved in enhancing a play with lighting. "The purpose oftheatrical lighting is to illuminate the actor and set the mood of the scene," Barney Smith, AS lightingconsultant, said. "By changing colors, dimming and bringing up the intensity, the lighting crewcan make the performance more meaningful for the audience." Color is a big problem. There are morethan 170 gels-colored blocks of a plastic-like material of varying intensity values and "We almost haveto guess what types would look good and then work from there, ' smith said. Lights vary for desiredeffects required. Large carbon-arc spot lights are used for wide illumination and smaller beams forspecial effects. On stage other lights are needed for special effects and other iignts are needed forbrightening ordimming the entire playing area. "The big difference between lighting for a play and for aspecial show is the rehearsal," Smith said. For a play each member of the lighting crew spends about80 hours working with director, actors and production crew. "After setting up the lights we have to aimthem, color them, work with intensity, and rehearse many times," he said. For special shows in thegym, there is no time for practice, Smith says. "We can't darken the gym until about an hour before the performance. Coloringisaprob-lem because the performer seldom arrives soon enough for testing." Abasic goal, he said, is to change effects without distracting the audience. / Valley Guild for RetardedChildren present 'Southern Soiree7 Fashion Show of Bridal Formal, Evening Fashions Models â€”Blossom Time Queen Candidates and Hostesses Wednesday Evening, April 24 â€” 8 P.M.

The city agreed to restore the route originallyrequested on tne sponsoring group's parade permit application, the Rev. Robert C. Swain, chairman ofthe Whatcom County chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union, said. The ACLU last week hadthreatened to seek an injunction on behalf of the sponsors against the city to restore the route. Thecontroversy arose when the city police department rerouted the planned march onto Magnolia Street,one block east, because of "traffic." The group complained this route would deny them maximumexposure to downtown crowds and protection by police on Holly from harrassment. The marchers agreed in their permit application to stay on sidewalks, obey traffic signals and walk two abreast so as not toobstruct traffic.

Show more1968_0430 ---------- Western Front - 1968 April 30 - Page 1 ---------- Council approves pass/fail for electives By MIKE KOCH managing editor The Academic Council lastweek approved a pass-fail system which would allow students to take up to 24 quarter hours of electivecredits toward graduation beginning fall quarter. In other action, the council approved the Englishdepartment's request that the English Comprehensive Examination be dropped as a requirement forEnglish majors. In further action, the council approved the continuance of the VICOED program untilJune, 1971, "providing adequate funding is available." Following discussion of the present VICOEDprogram, prompted by the preliminary report of the ad hoc VICOED study committee, the councilempowered the committee to work with the VICOED people "to effect such modifications as will makethe program more meaningful." The council resolved the disagreement between the students and facultyon the pass-fail committee in favor of the student's recommendation that a fail in a pass-fail course not be counted in computing a student's g.p.a. Larry Springer represented the student position. He saidthat since a pass does not affect g.p.a., neither should a fail. Also, Springer said that a fail would resultin no credit for the course, and a student would have to take the same or another course, getting apassing grade, to replace the credits he had lost The purpose of a pass-fail system, Springer said, "isventuring into other areas of study." To apply a fail in such a course to g.p.a., "would defeat the purpose," he said. Representing his concern as a faculty member of the pass-fail committee, Dr. Arthur Hicks,professor of English, said he was worried that students in a class on a pass-fail basis might "feelprivileged to drop the course" after finding they weren't interested. Comparing pass-fail to other courses,Hicks said that it seemed unfair to the students to count some " F ' s " on g.p.a. and not others.Courses taken on a pass-fail basis can't be used to satisfy requirements for general education, major,minor or supporting courses. Only one pass-fail course can be taken per quarter. If a student shouldchange his major or minor to a subject in which he has taken pass-fail courses, the department will bethe "sole judge" of their acceptability toward the major or minor. Instructors have a choice as to whether a "D" is a pass or failure. Normal letter grades will be kept by him but only the " P " or " F " will besubmitted to the registrar. Students must decide to take a course on a pass-fail basis at registration;however, they may change within the first five days following registration if they pay the normal fee.Prerequisites for pass-fail courses are the same as those for other courses. Since the council haspreviously approved experimental pass-fail grading in one section of Mam 151, "Introduction toMathematics," and Education 301, "American Education and the Teacher," these courses are excludedfrom the 24-credit limitation on pass-fail electives. Council approved the continuation of the 24-hourelective pass-fail system for three years. At that time a faculty-student committee will review the program and make recommendations. thewestern front Western Washington State College, Bellingham, Wash.98225 Vol. LX No. 25 Tuesday, April 30, 1968 1 Qc inside Peace march 2 Costigan. 2 Legislature 3New editors 3 Editorial pages 4.5 Jeopardy review 5 Student awareness 9 Sports 10-11 Noel Bourasaw shows concern and finally delight in the hour up to the moment his victory was announced lastWednesday evening. The president-elect will take office next year. ' (Photo by Bruce e.t.) AS offices tolose doors, president-elect says Students have an increasing role in administration of the campus, hesaid. "Discussions have been held on pass fail; it would have helped if more students attended.Discussions were held on the English comprehensive test; it would have helped if more students hadbeen present." He said he wanted the students to feel free to contact him with any problem that arosein connection with the college. "The doors to my office will be off," he said. Associated StudentsPresident - elect Noel Bourasaw pledged Thursday to maintain an open-door policy next year. "Iintend to take the doors off my office, off the vice-president's office, and off the legislative meetingplaces," he told about 200 students at an all-school assembly Thursday afternoon. Bourasaw said heplanned to have as many all-school assemblies as possible in the future. "The students andLegislature have been separated too long," he said. He criticized the racism in the country, and toldthe students it was time for something to be done about it. "You are the ones to doit," he said.Bourasaw announced he was taking applications for two new positionsâ€”a town crier, who will go aboutcampus "crying" the news, and a court jester. He said things have been done for the students. "Now it is time they were done by the students." Bourasaw said that for the first time in years, an electioncampaign for AS president has limited itself to the issues. "I am pleasedthat my opponent consentedto debating only issues. My opponent is a good man," he said. He said any student writing a letter tothe editor of the Western Front could expect a phone call from him, giving them "a job to do."Bourasaw wins presidency over Jones by 6 9 votes Noel Bourasaw won his bid for Associated Studentspresident Wednesday in one of the closest tallies in Western's history. The junior sociology majorpulled ahead of Greg Jones by only 69 votes, out of 1,415 cast for the top spot. Dave Davis won overwrite-in Roger Jenkins for the vice-presidency, 637-379. Winning AS Legislature seats were SteveCooper, Al Doan, Bob Hicks, Gordon Kalich and Ruth McConnell. Forrest Anderson won AssociatedMen Students president over three opponents. Associated Women Students officers for next year areBarb Sturckler, president; VicMWil- Election results son, vice - president; Cathie Martin, secretary; andLinda Bridges, treasurer. All constitutional amendments passed with the required majority. The NorthCascades Park issue was favored by 1230 voters, with 183 voting against it. Lowering the voting age in Washington state was favored by 692 persons, with 414 dissenting. Bourasaw's victory alsooccurred in one of the poorest turnouts for spring quarter elections. Some 1,415 registered theirchoice for president, only 57 more than total turnout for winter quarter elections. Two years ago, RogerSand-berg defeated Byron Mauck by 85 votes, with a record 2,2-*7 voter turnout. Last year's electionwas also large, with 2,113 turning out to give Dan Fred-rickson a 1,249-864 victory over Don Duncan. InWednesday's election, Jones won at two polling stations, Viking Commons 187-134, and RidgewayCommons 154-62. Bourasaw was ahead at the VU lounge, 192-163; the Coffee Shop, 245-76; and theGym, 109-93. Low voter turnout was attributed to long lines at the voting machines. Elections boardchairman Jon Murray says IBM sheets, such as those used for computer-scored exams, will probablybe used at the next election. Noel Bourasaw . . . .

(Photo by Tim Heitzman) ---------- Western Front - 1968 April 30 - Page 2 ---------- 2 Western Front Tuesday, April 30, 1968 Peace train marches downtown; 370 hold 30 minute silent vigilBy ANDREW YACKLEY of the Western Front A peace train of 370 students and faculty wound its wayto the Federal Building last Tuesday. Most marched two abreast, talked in low tones and waitedpatiently at intersections for traffic to clear. Some helped to direct traffic and reminded marchers tostay close to buildings, out of the way of pedestrians and shoppers. A 30-minute silent vigil was heldat the Federal Building, except one girl played a guitar. One white-haired lady wore a peace sign pinnedto her coat. Her powdered face seemed to show regret that she was born fifty years too soon to marchas a student. Attitudes of downtown Belling-ham citi zens to the march ranged from neutral to negative.While most agreed the marchers had the right to demonstrate, they wondered about itseffectiveness. Louis LaMont: "I don't think it does a bit of good. It creates hostility in the people that don't agree. "Send them all to Vietnam," one department store clerk suggested. Most personsinterviewed a-greed "They were orderly."; Students, residents gather to hear teach-in speakers One lady thought the march was inspired by Communists. Many felt professors should have the right todemonstrate, too, except one person who said, "They should know better than that, they're to blame."Two high school students tore up literature being passed out by the demonstrators. Ed Warner, senior at Belling-ham High, said, "Thismay sound chauvinistic, but *My country, right or wrong.' " John Jenkins,freshman at Se-home High said, "I would die any day for my country." Many persons criticized thermarchers* dress asking, "Do they all dress like that up there?" Giovanni Costigan spoke to a full VikingUnion Tuesday, lashing out against U.S. policies in Vietnam. (Photo by Fred Wepfer) Peace onVietnam, the racial crisis, and peaceful demonstration were themes discussed at the teach-in lastTuesday in the bird sanctuary. About 400 people garnered to listen to speakers ranging from collegestudents to Bellingham residents. Aside from occasional horn-honking on the nearby street, thespeakers were given respect and cooperation and were not interrupted. Three children sat through theteach-in waiting for the march to begin at 2:00 p.m. Each carried a sign that read, "Would you letthem kill your children?" referring to napalm. "This teach - in is a good thing/' commented SteveJohnson, junior. "I hope this is just the beginning of many such teach-ins." One student said, "I thinkthis is a terrible waste of time. No student is able to change any national issue. After all, who are we?"Alice Bauer, English major said she was unhappy about the turn-out "I only wish teach-ins concerningcollege issues could be organized."

The North Vietnamese will refuse to negotiate because "theyfeel cheated," the University of Washington history professor said. Johnson's March 31 statement"has not fulfilled our hopes," he said. He criticized the "ig-nominous hassling" over a site for talks andthe continued bombing of North Vietnam. Costigan regards with sus? picion Johnson's statement that he will not seek the Presidency again, saying, "I've learned not to believe a word he says." Hespeculated Johnson may.try "to pull a Nasser" by withdrawing and then claiming the resultingsympathy affirms his policies, as the Egyptian president did after the June war. If Johnson reallyintends to quit, he would support Humphrey, Costigan said. The "only plausible explanation" astowhyhe has not is that the President hopes to provoke a three-cornered fight in the Democratic party toforce the convention to fall back on him as its only chance for unity, he speculated. "I think we may nothave seen the last of Mister Johnson," he said. If Johnson seeks the nomination, he hopes "therevulsion in the party will humiliate him as he deserves to be humiliated." Costigan said he believesthe military must be more strictly controlled, and for this reason favors Sen. Eugene McCarthy, whospoke more strongly for this than sen. Robert Kennedy. He termed defense secretary Clark Clifford'sclarification or Johnson's statement that "we will negotiate any time at any place" as "meaning areasonable place" a "subterfuge" to justify not accepting Phnom Penh or Warsaw as a site for talks.He called it a "stupid" move, but said he was not surprised because, "after all, stupidity has been ahallmark of the State Department for many years." 'The world puts the blame on Washington" for thedelay, he said. A state department official told him Johnson has made the "any time, any place"statement no fewer than 500 times, Costigan said. His appearance was sponsored by the Studentsfor Peace in Vietnam. Ziegler challenges views expressed by Costigan "We at Dewey Griffin wish torender the best possible service to our community. See us and allow us to prove we can make you thebest deal." -The Staff Dewey Griffin Oldsmobile - Cadillac G.M.C. Central ft Grand Giovanni Costiganwas guilty of numerous "errors of fact," David Ziegler, political science instructor, charged after hearing Costigan speak last week. "I am deeply disturbed by several of the assumptions underlyingCostigan's remarks," he said. "It is a common human trait to attribute all goodness and wisdom to ourside and all evil and stupidity to the other side. Costigan seemed to me to be so careful in avoiding thispitfall he went to the opposite extreme. "This attitude seemed evident to me in his opening remarks, onthe maneuvering over a negotiating site . . . Costigan stated that the U.S. rejected Cambodia as a site because we had no diplomatic mission there, then went on to claim that the 10 sites we proposed wereones where the North Vietnamese have no representatives. "This simply is not true," Zeigler said. "Asfar as I can tell, North Vietnam has representation in all the 15 sites we have suggested." Costiganaccused the Adminis- W.W.S.C.

To this,Ziegler replied, "If Hanoi were sincere and concerned about ending the bloodshed, they wouldn't playgames with this." Ziegler also attacked Costigan's broader interpretation of world affairs, saying, "As Iwould interpret (Costigan) . . . there is a world social revolution going on. This revolution is a GoodThing, since it will better the lot of the masses. The U.S. is the major obstacle . . . the best thing for uswould be to withdraw to the American continent and let the revolution take its course." Zieglerdisagrees. "Withdrawing from all of Southeast Asia will have terrible consequences. I don't say weshould stay . . . I simply say we should be aware of the consequences of what we do. Ziegler said in1961 he was a "hawk," while Costigan is a "dove." "But he and I would probably agree completely onthe short-run policy for Vietnam. All this proves is the virtual worthlessness of labels, and of the smallvalue of conclusions as opposed to the reasoning leading up to mem." Ziegler said he wants to seethe issues debated, "not accept* ed uncritically, as they were by the audience in the VU Tuesday."WE'RE NOT EXPENSIVE . . We Just Look That Way. HOWARD'S CHAR BROILER 1408 Cornwall ---------- Western Front - 1968 April 30 - Page 3 ---------- Bill W motion fails to pass in legislature Legislators ended their nearly 2-hour-long meeting last weekwith a motion to eliminate "69" from the sequential numbering of Several legislators joked about the"unlucky" figure, since it was the number of votes by which Noel Bourasaw won |he AssociatedStudents presidency the day before. The motion failed. In serious business, legislators questioned Dr.Carter Broad about the proposed college government reorganization and Dr. Howard Mitchell about thecollege book store. They also approved a bill to "advise the registrar s office to approve in the future anyrequests for absences from students who wish to observe Good Friday as a religious holiday." Jon Hatchtold the board that his term on the Student Academic Advisory Board was expiring in June and a newperson should be appointed. Legislators were given a letter from the Interhall Council explainingchanged dress regulations in the college dining halls. Under the new rules, casual attire may be worn forall meals except Sunday noon, which will still be considered a dress-up affair. Students wearingundershirts, unhemmed shorts, bathing suits, curlers, or not wearing shirts will not be allowed in thedining halls. AH students must wear shoes or sandals. The policy was accepted by the dean of women,dean of men and dean of students. The board also turned down again Dan Fredrickson s appointmentof himself to the Publications Committee. Dr. Broad, in explaining the proposed academicreorganization said government would be centered in an "academic senate of administrative officers,faculty and student representatives. The Faculty Council has approved his plan in principle. Severallegislators questioned the proposals provisions for student representation. Mitchell, chairman of thebookstore board, answered questions on Co-op markups. Most of the profits, he said, have beenreinvested in the bookstore. Expansion in the future will have to rely on profits, he said, since the Board of Trustees has indicated it may cut the $2 student fee. The co-op has a loss two months out of three,he said. Prices are competitive with comparable stores except for minor items, he said. 'We can't beatthe prices of anyone else and we won't try to," he said. Complaints on bookstore policies should bedirected to manager Ray Knabe or to a member of the bookstore board, he said. In other action, sixbills were introduced and sent to committee. Greg Jones asked for authorization of a canoe loan to aboy scout troop for 10 days during August. Another, submitted by Steve Cooper and Becky Cohenproposed that the AS president, activities commissioner and two members of the Counseling Center worktogether to choose a coordinator and consultant for the Rosario workshop. Neal Johns moved thatpolling stations be located where all students could use them, and that enough stations be available sothat voters would not have to wait longer than 10 minutes. The proposal would cut out polling stations inthe college dining halls. Dean Van Donge submitted three bills related to office hours and policies ofstudent legislators. Trustees promote Brown, accept chair resignations Tuesday, April 30, 1968 Onepromotion was announced and two department chairman resignations were accepted at the Board ofTrustees meetingin Ellensburg Friday. Dr. Robert D. Brown hasbeen promoted from interim topermanent academic dean. Brown came to Western as chairman of the English department in 19- 65. He was named associate academic dean in January, 1967, and interim dean last July. Resigning asdepartment chairmen were Dr. SeneCarlile, speech; and Dr. Manfred C. Vernon, political science.Other resignations were from Elbert Miller, associate professor of geography; James H. Mulligan,public information office: Edward H. Shaffer, assistant professor of economics; and George Steer,supervisor of Security. Contracts were terminated for Robert Bragg, lecturer in art Dale Ingalls,instructor of technology; and Robert Shaw, assistant professor of technology. The board also heardthe Academic Reserve development plan which would double Western's size within the next 20 years. They also accepted a student recommendation to have architects proceed with preliminary designingfor Lakewood expansion.

Not just because less than a quarter of thestudent body votedâ€”while in previous years close to 40 per cent turned outâ€”but because many morewanted to vote. Many waited up to an hour to vote at the time-consuming voting machines. More, whoentered the lines during a free hour between classes, had to leave again before reaching the station, orjust gave up. Their votes could have changed the election results, considering how close returns were. As it is, we now have student body representatives "elected" by less than one-eighth of the student body.Last quarter we criticized the elections for a "musical chairs" ballot. This time, we had the equivalent of a poll tax: those who couldn't pay an unreasonable amount of time in waiting, couldn't vote. Let's skipthe voting machines trouble next time and consider seriously a proposal of Elections Board ChairmanJon Murray. He wants IBM answer sheets, used in computer-scored exams, for ballots. This way, results could be tallied and checked in a matter of minutes. If a satisfactory arrangement for write-ins could beworked out with the computer ballot, the suggestion is excellent. We don't want to see another electiongummed up as this one was. . â€”Jeanne Doering the paddle wagon A person can't fail to note theAcademic Council's approval of a pass-fail option for electives. For one thing, this demonstrates againthat significant changes in the college's academic and social structure can be made throughresponsible channels. Examples of such major student-requested changes during the past year includeliberalizing regulations on girls' closing hours and dress regulations in the dining halls, rewriting of thedisciplinary code, revamping of the general education requirements, and consideration of ROTC Perhapssome people are not entirely satisfied with the changes that have been made, but what counts is thatthese are positive steps which can be taken further. Those who want all or nothing had better think twice. Kicking holes in boats will make them sink. Helping row will get everyone somewhere faster.

Member U.S. Student Press Association, College Press Service, Associated CollegePress and Intercollegiate Press Service Shakespeare Editor: At least two of the BSU members whosigned the controversial letter of April 9 know of a Shakespearean character who said: "Hath not a Jew eyes? Hath not a jew hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions? Fed with the samefood, hurt with the same weapons, subject to the same diseases, healed by the same means,warmed and cooled by the same winter and summer as a Christian is? If you prick us, do we not blood?If you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you poison us, do we not die?" They also know that one ofShakespeare's greatest tragic heroes was black. They have learned from him that "one touch of naturemakes the whole world kin;" they have heard or "the milk of human kindness;" they have encountered acompassionate King who inquired: "Poor naked wretches, how shall your houseless heads and unfedsides, your looped and windowed raggedness, defend you from seasons such as this?" Finally theyshould realize that Shakespeare did not write as a jew, a black, a King, an Englishman, a Christian, or a white: he wrote as a Man. Dr. Arthur Hicks Professor, English Let off steam? Editor: The criticism ofthe administration by Don Wittenberger in his editorial on the disciplinary hearings that was printed inthe April 23 issue of the FRONT illustrates an illusion which is all too prevalent among collegestudents today. This illusion is that we are different and, because we are, we don't have to' live by thesame rules as everyone else. Wittenberger said that he thinks that "the administration should be moretolerant of demonstrations, sit-ins, panty raids and the like." He seems to feel that these are merelyways of "letting off steam". Taking panty raids as a case in point I say that there is a big differencebetween "letting off steam" and illegal entry and or theft. You and I may be able to buy our underwear atPenney's for seventy cents a pair, Don, but the girls don't get off so easy. If these were apartmenthouses rather than dormitories, young men breakingin for a panty raid would be arrested. Wittenbergeragrees that "the administration must protect property and human rights," but feels that it shouldn't press charges. How, may I ask is this possible? How can a law enforcement agency keep order unless ithas the authority of the courts to back it up? More tolerance on the part of the administration?Nonsense! The administration should start treatingthe students* on this campus like normal,responsible adults and we should grow up and start acting that way. David Stoebel Freshman, EnglishNo choice Editor: I was amazed to see the contents of the "Choice 68" ballots. I feel they were ratherpoorly composedconsideringthe big names of Time Inc. and Sperry Rand Corp. were associated withit. The second and third sections seemed intent on classifying all college students as either Hawks orDoves. The ballot left no room for the undecided or neutral to express their position. Futher, there wasno space to indicate opinions of how the war was being run. For instance, I have not decided whether Ipersonally feel the U.S. should be in South East Asia or not. Therefore, I cannot come to an opinion onthe question of escalation, deescalation, ormaintain- Letters to the editor should be typewritten on a 60-space bne, less than 250 words, not poetry and not libelous.

Further, I feel that space should have been provided for opinions concerning achange in the relative levels of spending for the military and "urban crisis" efforts. In my opinion,someone should have spent a few more hours in composing the questionnaire, Vietnam is not a simpleblack and white type of issue. Tim Houghtaling Junior, technology Thanks, Jon Murray Editor: I wouldlike to thank Jon Murray and his election committee for their fine work on me 1968 AS elections. I know, especially on voting day, that many people had suggestions to aid the voting process. I too had manyquestions and suggestions which were quickly answered. Again for all the time and effort, thanks Jon.Heather Highmiller Junior, geography Black and violence Editor: Most of you are outraged at thethreat to use violence by black people in their liberation movement. How dare you condemn blackpeople for using violence as a way to take their freedom. You should be screaming at file system whichmakes them have to use violence. Leon Whipple said in his book, "Civil Liberties in America," that"Whosoever has power has civil liberties." Thoreau said it another way that the majority ruleseconomically, politically, and socially not necessarily because it is good and right but because it isthe strongest. White people have had 400 years to live as brothers with their brothers; yet most allwhites chose to live as beasts. You ask for no violence; yet the United States characteristically usesviolence to solve its problems, i.eâ€ž the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, me Civil War, WW I,WW n, Korea, Vietnam, lynchings, burnings, capital punishment, etc. And now you have the gall todeplore violence on the part of the black community so that it can gain "black control of blackcommunities." I am a white pacifist, but I understand this violent nation and I understand that thisnation only acts out of fear. This nation only gives civil liberties to those who have power. It is not rightbut it is the only way this nation operates. I shall do everything a pacifist can do to aid the blackcommunity in gaining control over itself. Mrs. Rebecca E.

We have, however,encountered a few problems which perhaps Mr. Bourasaw can solve. First, our students are too ---------- Western Front - 1968 April 30 - Page 5 ---------- Letters to the Editor (Continued from page 4) showing up at the popcorn forum. Yet of the fourcandidates he came out second. His name was also first on a number of the ballots. A correlation?Perhaps and perhaps not. At any rate it is quite apparent to me after these and many otherexperiences that student government is in a bad way at Western. Nobody seems to care. Hopefullythose newly "elected" will improve interest and participation in student government. Dan WindischFreshman, Psych, Soc. Anthro. Light on conservation Editor: In regard to the conservation of the North Cascades I should like to shed some logical light on the issue. Let us suppose that the area wasturned over to the National Parks Service. This would seal off the entire section to hunting, industry,recreation of many types, roads, and thus prevent access to everyone except those who are capable ofclimbing around on a few alpine-like trails. This isn't conserving nature, it is being parsimonious andunrealistic. Granted, if an open pit mine were allowed it would detract from the appearance of the area,but with reasonable government regulation limiting the number of mines it would be analagous to theproverbial needle in a haystack â€” copper is sorely needed I might add. If it were not for Seattle CityLight there would be no access to Diablo Lake at all. Industry, hideous as it is, built a road throughsome of the most beautiful country imaginable and put at its end a ghastly looking structure knownas Ross Dam. Those who have seen the dam must agree that it is a perfect example of how man andnature can work together hand in hand without the former turning the latter into an economic eyesore. Ifyou haven't visited the aforementioned area and advocate turning the North Cascades over to the ParkService you have your head in the clouds. If you have made the trip and still insist on incarcerating the section, you have the amber fog of Midas behind your eyes.

Marty Wener Frosh, pol. science 5 students share poetry, prose honorsin Jeopardy competition Debby Maertz, Robert Sheedy and George Hartwell won the first three awards in the Jeopardy poetry contest. Kurt Higgins and John Greeley shared honors in the short storycategory, since there were no other short stories in the magazine. Names of winners in the artcompetition â€” judged by Robin Mayer, Robert Michener and Martin Tucker â€” have been delayed inthe mail, according to Ted Shields, Jeopardy editor. New York City poet Mark Strand who read hisworks on campus earlier this year, judged the poetry. He said the poetry section of Jeopardy showed acommon weakness with other student poetry throughout the country. It is written mainly in a free versethat allows itself to be dominated too easily by repetitive syntax, poorly managed lines, jokes usuallyself-conscious and bad, and plotting . . . most often unadventurous and dreary," he said. He believedmany of the poems could be read backwards without changing their sense. "There is in most of thesepoems an attempt to write 'poetic' poetry, the stuff that little old ladies who govern poetry societies are mad for. The exceptions, of course, are the prize winners," he said. First place he gave to DebbyMaertz's "Uncle Hastings in Duluth: 1898-1968." He described the poem as "a simple and movingportrait of an old man whose defenses against misfortune are imagination and love. The outstandingquality of her poem is its emotional density, a result of her ability to sustain tone, and, I am sure, herfeeling for what she is writ ing about." Robert Sheedy's "Back from Playing Baseball on the Graves"merited second place. "Though a bit longer than it might be, it is still very powerful," strand remarked.The poem's subject Strand said, "is really the quality of sadness evoked by the playing of a violin andnot the faintly ironic circumstances surrounding the playing. The violin is, in more ways than one, theinstrument of this poem and accounts for its unusually authoritative 'sound.' Of all the poems it is themost musical." Third place went to George Hartwell's "Never Move Into a Woman's Apartment." Strandsaid the work was written in a plain colloquial style and is easily the most amusing in the section. Hehas good timing is able to organize his information to the greatest possible effect." Judging thestudent fiction was J. Michael Yates, Canadian writer whose work appeared in this year's prosesupplement. Since only two stories were submitted, Yates chose not to judge one above the other. "Iti s r t that the stories aren't competitive, because they are," he commented. "But it takes more thantwo to have any meaning." This year's Jeopardy was entered in several national contests forstudent magazines, according to Shields. He said many professional writers had indicated thatJeopardy is one of the best college magazines they had seen. New student teaching centers proposedby ed department Student teaching centers could be established this fall in Ta-coma, Bellevue, theOlympic Peninsula, Sedro - Woolley, Mount Vernon, Anacortes and Burlington, under a neweducation department proposal. Acting chairman Dr. Eldon Bond was to c o n f e r with AcademicDean R. D. Brown on the proposal today. Before going into effect, the plan must be approved by thedean and the school districts involved. On a quarterly basis, Tacoma could take care of 16 teachers inelementary and secondary; Olympic peninsula, 4 in elementary; and Sedro-Woolley, Mount Vernon,Anacortes and Burlington eight teachers each. S. S. I. is coming May 11. order your flowers fromStudent teaching in Belling-ham will be reduced, "due to expansion of services in other parts of thestate," Bond said. Some 275 to 300 studnets are expected to student teach each quarter next year, hesaid. Present centers in Seattle, Shoreline, Edmonds and Everett also will be expanded to meet thegrowing needs, he said. Bond added that the department is investigating setting up a center inVancouver. B.C., with emphasis on industrial arts teachers. The re would be no certification problemswith a Canadian center, he said, although there might be international complications. Each residentcenter will have a supervisor, a joint appointment with the college and the school district, who isselected from the district's teaching staff. The college pays part or the supervisor's salary. A full-timesupervisor works with 16 student leaders. Bond said that Western is one of the few colleges in thenation to maintain the joint appointee set-up. Others include Harvard and Northwestern. 1426Cornwall Ave. 733-7630 Yhe finest in Chinese and American Food â€¢ Open 11 a.m. daily, 2 p.m.Sunday â€¢ Dine here with your date the night of the Spring Sports Informal, May 11 â€¢ Beverages inthe Tiki Room â€¢ Orders to go 206 W.

Jerry Jazbec Junior, physical science (These writers preferred to buy space tor this letter rather than edit it to the length limit of the letters column.) . - An open letter to the DisciplinaryCommittee The purpose of this letter is to show our concern for your recent decisions to thedemonstrations of the week of April 8. We realize this is probably to no avail, but would still like to bringthe following points to someone's attention. If the panel was so terribly concerned with the"substantial irregularities" in the entire case, why was it not equally concerned with these sameirregularities in the procedure of the hearing? Why did the panel allow the students to use the hearing"as an occasion to hurl deprecations at the world . . . , " the present administration, etc.? By doing so,this panel lost all authority and respect over the audience. It was apparent to all that the defendants knew this by their refusing to conform to any of the rules set down by the panel, such as the 5-minute talk limit Dr. Fleetwood seemed the only one who had any kind of hold on the defendants, and we question thishold. As an "objective" panel, is it proper for one of the more radical defendants to walk up on the stage,and pull one of the board members to a corner and talk to him? The content of the conversation isirrelevant. What is, is the fact that it gave the majority of the audience and all the defendants even moreinitiative. In referring to Number 2 point of the panel's statement to the paper, "The committeereprimanded the defendants . . . and censured those . . . " Does the panel honestly think no strongeraction was needed? The defendants were "sternly reprimanded" for their actions and words concerningDean Hitchman. Why wasn't it stopped while it was being done? The panel sat there silently while DeanHitchman was harassed, unable to return this harassment to the defendants. Finally, underneath allthose questions of identification, validity of rules, etc., we come to the real question which wascompletely ignored. Rules were broken. It is not true that business offices on campus close at 5 p.m. tothe general public? Is it not also true that on eierxstudent body card it states: "Card is property of college and can be recalled at any time"? Identification would not have been a problem if the students had beenaware of the conditions printed on the front of each of their cards. In attempting to cooperate with thestudents' wishes, the panel went to the other extreme, allowing the students to do as they pleased. Outof direct conversation with various students, it is our opinion that the panel also lost the respect of allthose who felt that disciplinary action was in order. We feel this sets an example to further civildisobedience. What if freshmen girls, disliking the curfew, refused to come in at 2 a.m.? This land ofexample could be duplicated over and over again. There are hundreds of rules the individual in societydoes not directly formulate; however, for the sake of his fellow man he abides by them. To question the validity of a rule or law is everyone's right and duty. As the Navigator states: "All students have the rightto participate in disciplinary policy changes through any orderly channel." We feel these demonstratorswere not orderly when they began disrupting the business of the Placement Office. The way the entireincident was handled reflects the inadequacy of the panel and the administration. We are not JohnBirchers, Communists, Left, Right, or Middle Wingers. We are not always Pro-U.S., Pro- Military, or Pro-Johnson. Call us perhaps representatives of the apathetic majority on campus who, speaking forourselves, no longer wish to be known as apathetic. It is not hard to see why some people feel thatdemonstrations and the belligerent breakage of rules are the only answers to being heard. The studenthas been ignored when expressing himself through orderly media. This is seen in the student cry forcampus parking. We are concerned about these things and wish to make this concern known. Aredemonstrations and civil disobedience the only answers? Is this part of the "free university" which ournew AS President ' s pushing for? We feel these questions need to be answered. They cannot be pushed to the back of our minds, awaiting the occurrence of a similar incident to once again bring them forth.Billee Johnson, freshman janis Warren, freshman Thanks to the many interested people who made thepublishing of this letter possible. ---------- Western Front - 1968 April 30 - Page 6 ---------- 6 Western Front Opinions on from 'insi By CYNTHIA EDDINGS fine arts editor "I cannot criticize thisboot because it does not come under my jurisdiction. It is something available for idiots." This was thecriticism given by Dr. Kenneth Innis, assistant professor of English, on the book of the quarter,Heinlein's "Stranger in a Strange Land," during a panel discussion last Thursday. Other speakers on thepanel entitled "Do you Grok, Water- Brother?" were Ingeborg Paul-us, lecturer in sociology-anthropology; Dr. Richard Purtill, associate professor of philosophy; Margaret Richards, a juniorEnglish major; and William H. O. Scott, circulation librarian and panel moderater. Dr. Innis added thatthe author's ideas were put together without craftsmanship. Since this was her first time readingscience fiction, Miss Paulus said that the book had not met any of her expectations. "After getting half-way through it, it became a chore for me to Tuesday, April 30, 1968 BOQ vary ' to 'idiocy' continuereading the book," she said. On the other hand, Dr. Purtill said he believed science fiction hasbecome increasingly sophisticated. "Heinlein is interested in writing about important sociologicaland psychological changes, such as religion and sex. He explores the possibilities in socialchange, forcing us to look at our customs and ask why, or why not," Dr. Purtill said. Miss Richards,giving an analysis of the main character, "Mike," said that the author draws a number of parallelsbetween him and Christ, especially in his advocation of supreme allegiance to one god. Speaking of another of the character s beliefs, Miss Richards said, "In misinterpreting Mike's feelings that love isimpotent if the spirit does not blend as the flesh blends, people thought he was advocating free love.Hence, we are faced with the actuality that if Christ was here today advocating love, would we accepthim?" Five editors resign to support Florida college censor decision GAINSVILLE, Fla. (CPS) â€” Five of the top editors on the student newspaper staff at the University of Florida have resigned in support ofa board of publications decision to censor an editorial written by the chief editor. The editorial, written for the Florida Alligator by editor Steve Hull, strongly criticized the Florida administration for its tactics inseeking to deny tenure to controversial professor Dr. Marshall B. Jones. Commenting on a publichearing before a faculty committee studying the Jones case, the editorial charged the administration with "smear tactics" and "cruel and shocking treatment" of Dr. Jones. The administration isattempting to deny tenure to Jones because of a speech he made advocating rebellion as the onlymeans available to most people seeking social change, and on the basis of his participation in Give your contact lenses a bath tonight In order to keep your contact lenses as comfortable and convenient asthey were meant to be, you have to take care of them.

Get some Lensine, from theMurine Company, Inc. numerous civil rights demonstrations. The editorial criticizing the administrationwas censored by the Alligator's faculty adviser, and Hull called an emergency meeting of the board ofpublications. The board, however, backed the adviser's decision, and instructed Hull to revise theeditorial. After Hull rewrote the editorial, five of his top editors told him they would quit if he publishedit. "I told them I thought I was right and that I intended to run the editorial," Hull said. "They walked out,and I had to put out the paper by myself." Hull said he had agreed to sign his name to the editorial â€” apolicy not generally followed â€” but this did not seem to make any difference to the five editors. Afterthe editors quit, the revised editorial also was censored by the board of publications. Hull leftwhite space on the editorial page, with the exception of the words, "Censored . . . For the SecondStraight Day." Hull issued a plea for students interested in preserving a free press to apply for theAlligator staff. He said 80 students applied the next day. At a third meeting, the board of publicationsdecided to let Hull publish the revised editorial because board regulations say an editorial can becensored before publication only if it is illegal, obscene, or libelous. The board agreed the editorial didnot meet any of the three conditions. The five editors who resigned appeared before the board andcharged Hull with being egotistical and said he endorsed a candidate in the student governmentelections after saying he would remain impartial. The five also said Hull made a "ridiculous proposalthat students should be placed on the faculty senate." The editors who resigned were the managingeditor, executive editor, news editor, sports editor, and the assistant news editor. Hull said none of the five had attended the meeting about which he was commenting in the editorial. 4 cancellations marSocial Issues speaker program By JIM AUSTIN of the Western Front Cancellation of the speakingengagement here of Leonard Carter, Western regional director of the National Association for theAdvancement of Colored People (NAACP), was due to a misunderstanding in the ActivitiesCommission, according to Zoe Ann Hedman, activities commissi oner. Both Miss Hedman and Chuck Miller, social issues chairman thought the speakingengagement had been confirmed by the other, shesaid. Miller said that Carter, who was scheduled to speak last Wednesday on "Martin Luther King:The End of an Era," had agreed to come to Western in conjunction with a trip toTacoma. "The Tacoma trip was cancelled, so I think it was doubtful he would have come anyway," he said. William Rusher,publisher of the National Review, who was scheduled to speak on campus last Tuesday, did not comebecause his flight from San Francisco was cancelled, according to Miller. Two other speakersscheduled for April failed to show. Floyd McKissick, national director of the Congress of RacialEquality (CORE), currently has a contract with an Eastern agency which prohibits him from speakingon a campus for less than $750, Miller said. "Of course, we run into these difficulties when we workdirectly with the individual or a small group rather than a national agency," Miller said. 'We hadbudgeted $500 for him, and simply could not meet his fee," Miller said. Robert M. Brooks, Washington State chairman of the Wallace for President Committee, was scheduled to speak on campus April 17,but cancelled at the last minute.

With most colleges consistently raisingstandards, a student often feels the stress andbecomes "graduation-average conscious." As a resulthe tends to play it safe, takes no experimental courses, sticks to familiar subject fields and may fretthroughout his whole college career because of low grades received during his freshman adjustmentto college-level work. Stonehill College hopes to solve these prevalent problems through a new gradingsystem recently adopted by a joint faculty- student committee at the college. The major feature of the new system provides that freshman grades are not included in the overall graduation average. Thestudent must do well enough tobe admitted to the sophomore class but his marks are not counted in his cumulative average. In effect, he begins his sophomore year wife a clean slate without being forced tolive with low grades feat he might have received in his early college days. Besides giving the student a fresh chance at his graduation average, the new system has fee added advantage of facilitating achange in a major program. A student may find, during his freshman year, that he prefers or has moreaptitude for a different program than his original choice. He now can make his changeover without b e i ng saddled with any low grades resulting from his initial efforts. This could be a particularly importantfactor in case of subsequent application for graduate school. To encourage students to experimentwith courses outside of feeir major field, thus broadening their education and allowing for feeexercise of intellectual curiosity, the new system also grants students a pass-failure grade option.Educators have long considered the freshman year as fee period of greatest adjustment to college.The so-called "sophomore doldrums" are frequently the result of psychological problems induced bydifficulties encountered in the freshman year. It is felt that StonehilPs new system, offering a freshstart at fee sophomore level, will provide a psychological lift to counteract this normally difficult collegephase. The student's sense of participation will be greatly strengthened as he recognizes feat he hasmore selectivity, that he can explore subject fields wife relative freedom and feat he can make achange in program without being penalized.

AC By STEVE LAMPE news editor In teacher placements this year, 124 out of 750 possible teacher graduates have been placed, according to Frank Punches, educational placementdirector. "It is like this every year," Punches said, "because of the teacher contract laws inWashington." Until mid-April most districts have no idea what type of vacancies they will have.Teachers in the district have not yet decided whether to sign for another year, Punches said. Ofthis 124, he said, most were elementary men andwomen or secondary women teachers. Punches saidthe draft is affecting placement. In a newsletter sent to all state districts this month he wrote: "Thenew draft regulations and quotas effectively halted whatever progress we were making. Seniors andgraduate students alike seem to think they won't have enough hands to pick up diplomas, inductionnotices, and teaching contracts at the same time, and there is an understandable feeling on their part that the draft notice may have the highest priority." Western places 12 to 17 per cent more teachersthan the other 14 institutions in the state, he said. Approximately two-thirds of possible teachers areactually hired by districts, he said. Of the rest, two-thirds sign out-of-state contracts.

In order to profitably operate astore, pay.all expenses, pay the help, and buy sufficient supplies and books there must be a certainamount of money added on to the cost price. This is known as the "mark-on." All Publishers across thenation determine the selling price of textbooks including a 20% mark-on price. For example, if a bookcosts $400 the retail is $5.00. This difference is considered the gross margin. Out of this difference thestore is obligated to pay the transportation, salaries for all employees, heat, light, telephones, rent,maintenance, fixtures, bookkeeping machines, cash registers, and the return freight when books arereturned to the publisher. The losses of all books held over for future classes and not used and notreturnable must also come out of this difference. As you can see, if the store depended solely on the20% margin to pay all expenses it would have to be subsidized. In order to be self sufficient we sellschool supplies, drug sundries, and many other items at a little higher mark*onâ€”to help pay for theseexpenses and services, and still have a little left over for additional supplies and future expansion. Asyou realize, with the increase in enrollment year after year we will have to plan for another location in thesouth area of the college. The Co-op Store Board has considered a rebate, but feel that this is not thetime. It will, however, plan such a patronage refund in the next few years if it is at all possible. This is aStudent owned store. It is here for your convenience and to provide many services. Our prices are nothigher, but are as low as, or lower than competition. This is a very conveniently located store andoperates as a special service to all students and faculty. We, the store management adhere to thestore policy and are pleased to accommor date each and every one. If you feel that you have a legitimatecriticism or suggestion, feel free to submit it in writing to the Bookstore Board. â€”Bookstore Board In1966, 83 per cent of Western's teaching candidates were placed. In 1967 the total was 78 per cent,according to Punches. Many students, said Punches, are worried about a state law requiring first yearteachers to instruct in college-recommended fields in at least 50 per cent of their classes with nomore than two classes outside that recommendation. "There is a conflict between this law and theprovisional certificate which every new teacher receives," Punches said. "The certificate is clearly alicense to teach and does not stipulate certain areas." Some districts, he said, tend to rate thecertificate higher and place teacher s in other areas outside their recommendations. If the State Board of Education chooses, it can withhold the educational allotment for the district. This, according toPunches, is a sum of $26,00C given to the district for every qualified teacher employed. According to the educational placement office, teacher shortage will continue to rise. "Our production of teachers,even though it's rising, is not meeting the population growth" Punches said. In 1955, 1,415 teacherswere placed in state district. In 19- 67, 3,891 were placed, he said.

The Legislatureshall have supervision and control of all business and financial affairs, properties, activities of theAssociation and power to grant awards." â€”AS Constitution. The University of Washington coed'scomment, "What has the Associated Students ever done for me?" is probably common. Many mayfeel that AS is a once-a-week lemonade session for idle vocal chords. To attempt to dispel thatimpression, AS is sponsoring a Student Awareness Day open house from 2 to 5 p.m. today in the VUlounge. There will be displays onwhat student government is doing, as well as the plans for expandingLakewood facilities and a model of the VU addition.

Dropping the test had been considered sinceDecember, 1967. Members of Western's English department consulted with the English departmentsof other institutions, in arriving at the decision. The Academic council approved therecommendation at their meeting of April 23. Dr. Robert McDonnell, chairman of the Englishdepartment, said, "Our original intention was to provide students with a comprehensive review ofEnglish and American literature. As the examination was amended in light of experience with it, itbecame less comprehensive and therefore, less satisfactory." The examination will not be offeredafter this quarter. Students wishing to take it this quarter, should sign up in the English department office by Friday. OSU students 'hawks' in poll CORVALLIS, ORE. â€” (I.

Without any financial help from the college administration, theteam is selling $1 donation tickets on and off campus to raise the money. Assistance is coming fromthe Bellingham Quarterback Club, a group of businessmen who are helping promote the fund raisingdrive in downtown Bellingham. The State Department's People to People program has organized metrip and supplied half the cost. It is up to Western's team to supply the other halt Two years ago theUniversity of Washington took a similar tour.

Some of the countries to be visited are Japan, South Korea, the Philippines and Malaysia.Coach Chuck Randall thinks this is as good a way as any to promote peace among the Asian countriesand that the school should feel honored that the team was chosen to go. He also said it is a fine way to receive national recognition as nationwide coverage is given to such tours.

Jazz artist Lou Rawls to appearThursday By CYNTHIA EDDINGS FRONT Staff Lou Rawls, the number one jazz artist of 1967, will give a concert Thursday at 8:30 p.m. in Carver Gym. Rawls, "discovered" seven years ago while singing in anafter-hours night club, has had a long climb to the top. He was virtually unknown prior to the release of his album "Lou Rawls Live." Now, having a string of smash hit albums to his credit, Rawls approaches thematerial with the supreme confidence and self-assuredness of a star; from the bittersweet rhythms of hisfamous "Tobacco Road" to the hauntingly romantic melodies of "The Shadow of Your Smile." On stageor on records, he generates an electric excitement, glowing with gospel fervor, and gleaming with his good humor. Besides singing about love and other sentimental subjects, he also speaks his mind and talksabout the "streets." He grew up in Chicago's South Side, where it was tough. He learned about life andpeople, and he sings about them. Rawls' style bridges the gap between rhythm 'n blues and popularmusic with compelling ease. His music comes out "soufin" and intensely personal, totally contemporary,and above all, uniquely Lou Rawls.

Another proposal, the result of the recent dispute over appointment of activitiescommissioner, was submitted by Partlow and Al Donaldson. It gives the AS president greater freedom in making appointments. The appointments of Dave Davis, Mark Hoffman, and Jon Murray wereratified by the Associated Students Legislature at its Wednesday meeting in the VU Lounge. After aweek's delay, Davis was appointed activities commissioner. Hoffman was appointed interimbusiness manager of the Western Front for winter quarter. Murray was approved for elections boardchairman. The meeting was attended by about 75 persons, many ofwhom were interested in action to be taken on a bill concerning un-tenured faculty members. The bill, drawn up by Noel Bourasaw, resultedfrom controversy concerning the nonrenewal of Dr. BernardWeiner's probationary contract. Actionwas postponed on the bill until next week.

The major asked a crowd ofover 250 people in the VU to raise their hands if they thought intelligent life existed on other planets.Almost everyone in the audience raised his hand,, UFOs, the major believes, are part of aninterplanetary investigation by a form of life more intelligent than our own.

Vivid, unexpected imagesaroused by Tate's poetry By RICH O'BRIEN FRONT staff Vivid images of the unexpected came againand again from poet James Tate during his reading last Wednesday to a large crowd in L-4. Tate spokewithout a microphone because of an equipment failure, but he could be heard in the farthest corner ofthe room. This was partly due to the carrying power of his voice, but mostly because the audiencereally wanted to listen. From the first poem when Tate announced, "To save time the horses are in thekitchen making soup," his audience was with him, tasting and sipping every word. In his poetry Tate put the commonplace back to back with the commonplace, perhaps for the first time in the history of"galoshes almost out of breath." And the audience loved it . . . and him.

Barry Goldwater's Friday afternoon appearance in the Music Auditorium will cost Westernstudents $2,000 from student fees. But that's not all. If you want to hear him, you'll have to pay 50 centsadmission and be one of the 900 students to get in. When the contract to have Goldwater speak wassigned by last year's Social Issues Committee Chairman Mike Botkin, with approval by formeradministrators Neil Murray and Dick Reynolds, the appearance was supposedly to have taken place inCarver Gym, which seats about 3,300 people. With this location for Gold-water's appearance, Botkinexpected to make about $2,000 from charging non-students a dollar and students 25 cents. AthleticDirector William Tomaras, however, said he had never volunteered the use of Carver Gym for this Fridaybecause of a conflict with a previously scheduled Evergreen Conference junior varsity game. Changing the physical arrangements in the gym following Goldwater's 4 p.m. speech would take more time thanwould be available. This year's chairman of the Social Issues Committee, Chuck Miller, thinks charging students admission violates the principle of his committee's service function. But, in order to provide aviable, interesting program for the rest of the year, he needs the expected $700 take from admission toadd to the $800 he has left for the year. The $2,000 for Goldwater made a deep bite in Miller's $4,500budget for the year. Goldwater's appearance at Western should cause some questions in your mind.Should a high-cost speaking engagement be contracted for a date when only 900 of 6,000 studentscan attend? Should students have to pay twice to hear a speaker, through fees, then again throughpaying admission? Shouldn't equal time for high-cost speakers with opposing philosophies be granted? Should a previous year's Social Issues Committee be able to control the expenditures of this year'scommittee? Finally, should any speaker be asked to come here at a cost of more than $2,000 when theentire Social Issues speaker budget for the year is $4,500? â€”Mike Koch. the western front formerly TheCollegian official weekly newspaper or Western Washington State College, Bellingham, Wash, second-class postage paid at Bellingham, Wash. 98225 phone, 734-8800 editorial, ext. 2277 advertising, ext.2276 Jeanne Doering Mike Koch Nancy Sanford editor-in-chief managing editor copy editor Pat HughesBruce Eagle Don Wittenberger sports editor head photographer assoc. copy editor Reporters: JimBromley, Cynthia Eddings, Randy Edwards, Joan Fisher, Dan Meins, Rich O'Brien, Bob Taylor.Photographers: Tim Heitzman, Tom Weeks.

Dear Editor: I have not in the past been inspired to publish my thoughts in your newspaper, as other studentshave, but considering current activities by our legislature, that desire has been changed. Observing the processes of our government, especially our legislature, I have come to the conclusion that somewhere, somehow, certain individuals have decided that thair personal ambitions should be put above theinterests of the students. This seemingly prevalent attitude on the board has muddled, confused, anddestroyed many of its purposes, if not its legislation. It is interesting to note that this confusion hasstretched so far that THEY are now willing to eliminate legislative by-laws on appointments, so that such appointments can occur quickly, and possibly, again, to their interests. This is in direct contradiction to their past action, and only helps tosutstantiate the confusion this board works under. Our studentbody legislature has become so concerned with ITSELF, that I personally doubt whether they cancontinue, if they ever have been, to be an effective part of student government Their constant delay ofaction; their obvious contradictions; their lack of knowledge of our own constitution; and the concernover personal ambitions have only helped to develop this ineffectiveness. If student government can'thelp itself, then outside assistance is obviously needed, but even this has, in the past, been ignoredby this board. Something needs to be done about our student government â€” now, if we want tocontinue organized activities on this campus. Charles M. Miller Soph., political science Roots for'rooters' Editor: This letter is concerning your "editorial" pertaining to the special rooting section at theS.P.C. game on Jan. 9.

Theirapproach may have been a bit too ardent, but their involvement in supporting the team reached a peakthat will be difficult to duplicate (a little more team backing wouldn't harm this school one bit).Perhaps a "Golden Mean.** could be achieved in the vigor involved in rooting at the games, but I see nomore sinfulness in over-support than in the ever-present apathy. I must reiterate that I feel yourcondemnation by lack of wordage of this fine effort seems to project a lack for anythingbet-ter, or moreuseful, to say on Jour part, ohn Oswald Freshman, psychology Parking needs help Editor: One of theminor problems which confronts any college is student and faculty parking. Most schools handle thisproblem very satisfactorily and with consideration for the student. This is obviously not the case atWestern. I have observedwhat appears to be a deliberate lack of concern for the student. While otherschools build adequate parking facilities to accompany academic and physical growth, Westernseems to be walking backwards. I want to know why the money spent on parking permits is not used to expand and upgrade present facilities. It might be embarrassing to note that Everett J. C , which is100 per cent commuter, and even Sehome High, have more adequate parking than Western. In the past three years, dormitory rooms for about 800 Western students have been built, and a token pittanceof 50 parking spaces added. The Ridgeway parking is so limited that students who purchase on-campus permits are forced to park on the road-side, thus reducing the number of spaces available forcommuters. But alas! Old Main was aware of the problem and took swift action, not by enlarging current facilities but by restricting "legal parking" only to students with over 40 credits or a special reason.It is time for Old Main to remove its head from between its legs and have a long look at the absurdpolicies of the Campus Security Office and the Campus Planning Office. Walt Hensley Graduatestudent, chemistry Dorm officials 'incompetent' Editor: I felt strongly compelled to write this letter as anexpression of my deep concern over the incompetency of some resident directors and aides. Duringmy two-year stay in these dorms I have concluded that selection of dorm officials must be taken into amuch more serious consideration. I feel that financi al need should not be the priority in the selectionof these officials, but the ultimate concern in selection should be in their capabilities and in theirdedication in dealing with the organization of the dorm and,most important,meeting the needs of thedorm residents. One striking example is the recent fire incident in one of the dorms. From the time the fire was discovered to the time the dorm was vacated there was utter chaos and confusion amongmany^ due to the fact that these girls had not been familiarized with the sound of the fire alarm whenthey heard it It took about 15 minutes to vacate. Many of the girls sat in their rooms thinking the alarm was just a burgar alarm which often sounds off when someone accidentally opens a door after hours.This incident should not be taken lightly for it is an example of how disastrous lack of preparation andorganization can be. There are some excellent dorm officials who maintain a fairly well organized andsmooth functioning dorm but there are also the apathetic oneSjOblivious of responsibility.

Davis stepsinto a jobinvolving nothing less than running all student programs at Western. Well-suited for the job, heheaded up the recruiting committee of the Activities Commission last year, and was Larry Nelson'sassistant commissioner until Nelson resigned Jan. 8. Still, he is nervous about taking over the $200 aquarter job. It involves much responsibility. The 21-year-old speech therapy major from Tacoma saysmost of the $43,000 budgeted to the commission is spent for a variety of programs. A look at thecalendar for even the next month finds one concert, one major political speaker, a Fine Arts Festival, andseveral dances and Club 515 s. Activities like such as these continue throughout the year, withHomecoming being one of the Commission's largest responsibilities. Seven committee chairmen workunder Davis. Most of the work is done in committees of students who volunteer their time Social IssuesCommittee plagued by lack of funds winter"quar"ter Dances and dance policy are a problem area for thecommission, Davis said. The Viking Union has become inadequate for the number of persons who want to dance, but building capacity has been defined by fire regulations. While Davis says he doesn't want to turn people away from the dances, he believes that safety must be remembered. He wonders whatwould have happened if last quarter's Christmas tree had caught fire on an overcrowded dance floorinstead of in an empty Viking Union. An alternate dance area, the gym, is used infrequently because it is booked up with sporting events. The commission's urgent problem this year will be recruitingworkers, Davis says. While he commends those now working for the commission, he would like itstrengthened, especially in the Talent Agency. Davis thinks that Activities Commission programming isthe backbone of student government, and must have many active people to keep it strong. With theexception of the newspaper, the commission is the most business-like of student government activities, he says.

Miller, a sophomore in political science, says the Social Issues Committeeis only budgeted $4,500 from student fees this year. So far, part of the money has been used forspeakers on Vietnam, civil rights, problems in state governments and a crime and drugs symposium.But Miller thinks that a more diversified and higher quality program, commensurate with Western's sizeand scope, is necessary. He says a $2,000 increase is needed in the speaker budget. Central andEastern, with fewer students enrolled than Western, has more money budgeted for. speakers.hesays. In addition to more money, Miller thinks that Western should have two speaker committees, asystem many colleges have found effective. One committee would deal with specific-subject, low-costspeakers; the other would handle national big names, usually high-cost speakers. Miller thinks hiscommittee will be able to put on a good program the rest of the year with the $1,500 remaining in thebudget. His committee is organizing a symposium on politics and issues, 1968, for spring quarter. ARepublican candidate for President may also speak here, Miller said. Scheduled speakers this quarter include Raphael Green, an expert on the Sino-soviet dispute, on Jan. 30; and U.S. Sen. WarrenMagnuson on Feb. 13.

The facility will have dining halls and a coffee shop, but students will be able to cooktheir own food if they wish. An academic facility is included in the plans to serve as a cluster collegelater, Hitchman said. Architect Royal McClure will present his plans to the Auxiliary EnterprisesCommittee.

After several months ofresearch, SAAB submitted its report on the general education program to the Academic Council. It is now up to the council to work out the differences between the SAAB report and that of the COLECommittee, which also investigated the subject. SAAB has listed two main priorities for this quarter.These are research into the question of the mid-term deficiencies, and a look at the teachereducation program.

KatherineCarroll, who saw it Latin-American style in Peru. Dr. Carroll, education professor who just returnedfrom nearly a year's lectureship at the University of Trujillo, lost class time to student demonstrationsand witnessed student-sponsored violence. Reflecting on her experience, she says, "I'm against student apathy, but I'm also against irresponsible violence." Throughout the year of unrest she found she had toadopt an attitude of "consistent cowardice." "I had to be careful because I was obviously an American, and the Communists who promoted the violence were anti- American," she said. "I stayed away from gatherings, not wanting to become involved and possibly cause an international incident," sheadded. The job meant considerable Or. Katherine Carroll saw 'student power' tension and frustrationbecause classes were constantly interrupted, she said. Dr. Carroll's first semester at the school (April to July) was quiet, she said. She lost only eight days to student work stoppages, usually sponsored by communist organizations. 'Just think1. Last week we were cooped up in town with nothing to do but play bridge, watch TV, go to parties and shop at Ennen's." ENNEN'S THRIFTWAY HIGH AND HOLLY"WHERE EVERY CUSTOMER IS IMPORTANT" The second semester (August through December) sawa crescendo of student uprisings. The fi rst prote sted the malfeasance and negligence in thedepartment of students, which looks after students' financial and medical needs. The incident wastriggered by a kerosene stove explosion which killed a coed in her house. Students claimed thedepartment of students did not properly care for her. Then, irate students claimed the Faculty (School)of Chemical Engineering hadn't made necessary reforms. The first protest was a three-day workstoppage. This was followed by a disturbance at the opening of a new college dining hall which forceddignitaries to flee. Then students invaded the university plant, forcing suspension of all operations.Students threw a molotov cocktail into the local Lions club to protest the Lion-sponsorship of thespring festival. They called the festival a capitalist activity and against the interest of the people. Theythen marched on a local bank considered part of the capitalist "plot" and threw rocks at the building.When they tried it at the rector's (president's) house, they were turned back with tear gas. After theseincidents, the University Council declared school recessed for two months. Shortly after studentleaders were arrested and jailed. They were released a few weeks later. School opened again Nov. 12, and Dr. Carroll notes there were "two weeks of unnatural quiet." Troubles renewed with a protestagainst school closing without student consent. Students complained the University had violated anational law which says all decisions should be based on one-third student representation. They alsocomplained there-forms (promised after the first riot) had not been carried out. Students were also bitterbecause there would be no extension of the university year, despite the two-month recess. Protestactivities included silent marches, a hunger strike by eight persons, another takeover of theuniversity, an attempted attack on the rector's house, and a destructive attack on the vice-rector'shouse. The University closed down again Dec. 13, taking a solid stand against studentdemonstrations. Dr. Carroll left for the United States four days later. She said she will be happy tospeak to any group about her experiences. Students doing better in grades department Today'sstudents are doing better in grades than did students of a few years ago, figures from the Registrar'sOffice show. The all-college cumulative grade-point average (g.p.a.) this fall was 2.61, compared with2.56 two years ago. The quarterly g.P.a. for the whole college jumped from 2.51 in fall of 1965 to 2.62last quarter. Freshmen and transfer students are makingbetter records, too. The new freshmanquarterly mean g.P.a. during fall of 1965 was 2.37, but last quarter it was 2.42. The new transferquarterly mean g.p.a. went from 2.43 in fall of 1965 to 2.57 last quarter. Percentage of persons withgrade-point averages below 2.0 has also dropped. Five years ago they accounted for 24.3 per cent of the total day enrollment, but this fall they were only 12.7 per cent. More new freshmen are making thegrade, too. While five years ago 44.3 per cent made a grade-point average below 2.0, only 19.4 per centwere in that category this fall. Dean of Students James Hitch-man said the improvement in the freshman class would be diffi-' cult to explain, except, perhaps, in terms of "vintage years" for classes. He addedthat many professors have noticed the differences in attitudes of this year's freshmen. Architect joinsplanning staff Architect Robert Aegerter started work this month on the campus planning staff headed by Barney Goltz. Goltz said Aegerter "adds a dimension of talent to our staff we have not previouslyknown." Aegerter will help cope with growing capital projects, to total $34 million dollars for land,buildings and utilities before 1971. Aegerter will help the State Division of Engineering and Architectureto coordinate its activities with Western's growth. Now there are 14 free-lance architects working onmore than 30 projects at Western. Aegerter, 32, did work for small colleges and churches for 9VÂ£years while employed by a Northfield, Minn, architectural firm. Aegerter received his B.A. in architecture from Iowa State University in 1958. Interlibrary loan service starts A courier service to the libraries atthe University of Washington has been established for Western faculty and graduate students, WilsonLibrary Director Robert Lawyer announced recently. The service is limited to faculty and graduatestudents, which is the policy for interlibrary loans, Dr. Lawyer said. Speed of the courier service forWestern will be its special point, Lawyer said. Requests reaching the Wilson Reference Department byWednesday noon will probably be filled on Friday, he said. Courier will be Mrs. Meredith Cary,assistant professor of English and a professional librarian. She will do the necessary searching andarrange for other UW-based operations, thus giving Western requests priority over those of otherinstitutions. Admissions statistics Anyone interested in admissions statistics? Thirty-five newfreshmen and 203 transfer students registered for winter quarter. This compares with 48 new freshmen and 168 transfer students registered for winter quarter last year. Lawyer noted that the number ofrequests for interlibrary loans jumped to 60 loans the first week of the courier service this quarter.Previously, requests had averaged 20 a week.

By PAUL MADISON contributor Chuck Randall, Westernbasketball coach, for the past five years has compiled a record of 93 wins and 46 losses, a .669winning percentage. While Randall's teams have been winning just over two-thirds of their games, otherWestern athletic teams are fighting to win half. What quality makes Randall-coached teams winners?Mike Dahl, the Vikings center, says of Randall: "By being the man he is, he gets everythingpossible out of his players." Guard Paul Hallgrimson cites the bubbling enthusiasm that Randallinstills in his players, while Rich Tucker thinks it is his positive attitude. Jim Klein, a newcomer to thevarsity squad this season% sums it up when he says, "You want to win for him as much as foryourself." Swimmers face Central Saturday Central Washington, seventh in the national NAIAswimming championships last season, will invade the Western pool at 11 a.m. on Saturday. Westernwill be seeking its second straight win over an Evergreen Conference opponent. Central will be aheavy favorite with three time All- American NAIA Gerry Malella and two time All American NAIA andnational diving champion of last year Mark Morrill. Coming into this season Malella held eight Centralschool records and two Western pool records. Western Coach Don Wiseman's best chances for first place come from Robin Allen and Bill Lingley. Both now hold school records in their respectiveevents: Robin in diving and Bill in the freestyle races. Intramural basketball teams ready WinterIntramurals have started already with winter basketball. Some 53 teams in four leagues arecompetingÂ«classed in leagues according to ability.

NATIONAL BANK OF COMMERCE NBC MemberFederal Deposit Insurance Corporation To the ever-optimistic Randall, winning is the only thing to doand the only way to thinÂ£ He is always predicting conference championships, district titles, and trips to the nationals for his players. He says, "Without thinking like a winner, you can't be awin-ner. If I don't have confidence in my boys, who can?" He adds that he has never thought his teams couldn't go all the way. Randall is unique in that when he asks his players not to drink or smoke, he is asking them togive up what he has given up all his life. Forward Ed Monk gives another reason for Randall'ssuccess: experience. Randall has been coaching since he graduated from Central Valley High School, Spokane, in 1945. During his career he has coached grade school, junior high, high school, church,AAU and college teams. This vast background has produced the Randall philosophy of drilling hisplayers in basic fundamentals and a tough defense. This philosophy was evident in a recent practice.The Viking first string had started doing things on an individual basis and were playing badly. Randallthen set up a game between the starters and the reserves. Before the game, he told the first five thatthey would be soundly beaten. When the game was over, the second string held a 15 point victory.Randall has again predicted a conference championship this season. Although this may sound cocky,Randall makes sure his players are not overconfident, just confident of themselves. This combination ofpsychology and fundamental basketball could lead Randall and his team to another great year on thehill. MT.

In order to profitably operate astore, pay all expenses, pay the help, and buy sufficient supplies and books there must be a certainamount of money added on to the cost price. This is known as the "mark-on." All Publishers across thenation determine the selling price of textbooks including a 20% mark-on price. For example, if a bookcosts $4.00 the retail is $5.00. This difference is considered the gross margin. Out of this difference thestore is obligated to pay the transportation, salaries for all employees, heat, light, telephones, rent,maintenance, fixtures, bookkeeping machines, cash registers, and the return freight when books arereturned to the publisher. The losses of all books held over for future classes and not used and notreturnable must also come out of this difference. As you can see, if the store depended solely on the20% margin to pay all expenses it would have to be subsidized. In order to be self sufficient we sellschool supplies, drug sundries, and many other items at a little higher mark*onâ€”to help pay for theseexpenses and services, and still have a little left over for additional supplies and future expansion. Asyou realize, with the increase in enrollment year after year we will have to plan for another location in thesouth area of the college. The Co-op Store Board has considered a rebate, but feel that this is not thetime. It will, however, plan such a patronage refund in the next few years if it is at all possible. This is aStudent owned store. It is here for your convenience and to provide many services. Our prices are nothigher, but are as low as, or lower than competition. This is a very conveniently located store andoperates as a special service to all students and faculty. We, the store management, adhere to thestore policy and are pleased to accommodate each and every one. If you feel that you have a legitimate criticism or suggestion, feel free to submit it in writing to the Bookstore Board. -Bookstore BoardStudent Co-op Book News Due to frequent requests, we have increased our selection of "stranger thanstrange" type of reading material; such as, Beyond the Strange, Strange Spirits, Between Two Worldsand Strange Superstitions and Magical Practices.

Seven outstanding sports figures in the history of Western athletics will beinstalled into the new Hall of Fame, Saturday during halftime of the basketball game. Theseindividuals were selected on the basis of their athletic achievement and contribution to athletics atWestern. The seven being installed are: the late Sam Carver, BoydStaggs and Chuck Erikson, all fromthe early period of 1910-1932; Bob Tisdale and Norman Dahl from the early Lappenbusch era; and BillWright and Norm Hash of the modern era since 1945. An engraved plaque will be presented each of theformer stars during the ceremony as well, as a lifetime pass to all Western sporting events. Dr. WilliamTomaras, athletic director, also plans to have a permanent plaque placed in Carver Gym. The eventwill mark the first observance of Letterman's Day, and will concentrate on the stars of several years ago.Each year a few more people will be added to the Hall of Fame.

If you haven't, Western Players Children's Theatre invites you to come roar at the play "Androcles and the Lion," at 8:30 p.m. Fridayand Saturday in L-l. The story of Androcles â€” the slave who pulls a thorn from a lion's paw and later isspared by the same lion in the Roman arena-is an old one dating back to the second century A.D.George Bernard Shaw wrote a famous version of the play and a musical version was recently madeby Richard Rodgers. The version being done at Western, a new one by Aurand Harris, is in theCommedia del 'Arte style, a theatre form which originated during the Italian renaissance. Among itscharacteristics were stock characters, much pantomine, broad "slapstick" humor, a simple plot, andimprovised dialogue. Actors wore masks befitting their characters, and costumes were as stock as the characters wearing them. Western audiences will get a taste of this when they see Harris's "Androcles." The acting company has gone deeply into Commedia research for the play. The show was designedprincipally for touring by the Western Players, and during February the company will tour WashingtonState. The tour began last week with a trip to San Francisco at the invitation of the Northwest DramaConference. There, the troupeperformed, attended seminars in theatre, and viewed productions by, andalong with, groups from the Stanford Repertory Company, the American Conservatory of Theatre, theUniversity of Oregon, San Francisco State, the University of Washington and the University of California.The troupe was able to see some first rate productions and in its presentation of a play in a specific style (CommediadelPArtelspokesman Joe Grant said the group felt it had made a worthwhile contribution tothe conference: Although "Androcles" was written as a chit dren's play, it has audience appeal for allages, as audiences in San Francisco demonstrated. The play production depends on the audience, andthe production at Western will be somewhat geared to the college audience. Audiences will find thehumor refreshing, the action fast, and the entire production colorful. The production is capable of adaption to various surroundings and "audiences, as a show geared for extensive touring should be. The castincludes Joseph Grant as Androcles; Dennis Clancy as Pantalone, a miser; Terry Nelson as Isabella and Vaughn Mitchell as Lelio, the two lovers; Randall Storey as the bragging Captain; Didge Pearson as theLion: and Cheryl Sletmoe as the Prologue and waU. The play is under the direction of Gayle Corneli-son, Director of Children's Theatre. Tickets may be purchased at the door or at the Vikine Union desk.Androcles (Joseph Grant) consoles the lion (Didge Pearson) about his thorny situation in the WesternPlayers' production of the Aurand Harris play version.

(Photo by Heitzman) Songster Lipscombbringing Negro music By BOB HICKS contributor White America has for decades been fascinated with,and more than a little envious, of Negro American folk music. Less "sophisticate" and certainly lesssmooth than white popular music, Negro music nevertheless has demonstrated a reality and totality ofscope notably lacking in the popular song of the white cultural mainstream. Almost as if it were afraid totackle the whole of the Negro musical heritage, white culture has preyed upon one Negro form, the blues, and absorbed it in emasculated form into its own musical repertoire. This preoccupation with the bluesâ€” finally burst from underground by Bill Haley and Elvis Presley in the watered-down form of rock androll â€” has resulted in an unfortunate neglect of other equally important styles of Negro music. NegroAmerica has recorded its entire existence in song. It has produced, besides the blues, the jubilees,drags, spirituals, breakdowns, shouts, reels and ballads. Mance Lipscomb, a 70-year old Texassharecropper and musician who will appear at 8 p.m. Sunday in the Viking Union Lounge, is one of thefew persons who has preserved the entire tradition of NPCTO music. Significantly, Lipscomb, who hasbeen singing and playing guitar in public for more than 50 years, refers to himself not as a "blues" or"jazz" or "folk" singer, but simply as a "songster." Lipscomb is an easy-voiced singer who reminds oneof a somewhat sophisticated Heddie Ledbetter. His guitar merges chord and string-solo styles, much asthe more widely-known Josh White accompanies himself. By MIKE KOCH managing editor BarryGoldwater, 1964 Republican presidential candidate and former U.S. Senator from Arizona, told astanding-room-only audience in the Music auditorium Friday that our foreign policy of "brinkmanship" iseffective. Power is the only concept the world understands, he said, pointing to its successful use inthe Formosan, Lebanon, and Cuban crises. "We have to show we're willing to climb the ladder ofescalation to discourage our enemies, and our willingness to go over the brink;' Gold-water said. Weshould have used this policy in Vietnam, he added. U.S. Vietnam involvement rests upon promisesmade by three presidents: Eisenhower, Kennedy and Johnson, he said. The country's honor is at stake there. Suggesting the domino theory of communism in Southeast Asia, Goldwater thinks we must fightthem there to keep from fighting them on the continental U.S. For support, he cited Japan's attacks onHawaii and Midway Island during World War II. Now we're "prime candidate" for assuming England'svacated responsibilities in the Far East, he said. It's a good thing for the country that Secretary ofDefense Robert McNamara will soon be replaced, Goldwater said. "He's been disarmingus. Thank Godhe didn't destroy our national guard and air reserves." North Korea is testing this country with the Pueblo incident, says Goldwater. If the reaction by the people in this country is not to react strongly, thecommunists will proceed with more emphasis in Vietnam, he thinks. A student in the audiencequestioned Gold-water's sincerity because he was paid $2,000 for his speech. Goldwater receivedresounding applause when he said he was spending the money for education. ''I'm putting ten kids, notmy own, through college,' he said. Earlier in the afternoon, Goldwater held a press conference for theWestern Front staff. He said in the conference that if Wallace runs, Johnson should put him on hispayroll, then build a monument to him. Wallace's racism would cause him to carry Alabama,Mississippi, and Louisiana, Goldwater predicts. Normally, these states would vote Republican. Federal government spending can be reduced $10 billion, withoutTiurting any programs* Gold-water thinks.Goldwater thinks Johnson's move to help our deficit balance of payments problem is "like a flea biting anelephant" Restricting overseas travel is foolish because tourists use hotels, planes and restaurantsmainlyU.S. -owned, financed or managed, he said. "I'm too old to go back to work and too young to stay out of politics," Goldwater said. He's running for the U.S. Senate seat presently held by 90-year-old CarlO. Hayden, D-Ariz.

TERRY JEWELER AWHERE JEWELRY IS OUR BUSINESS" 1326 Cornwall ---------- Western Front - 1968 January 30 - Page 3 ---------- Soulful Rawls 'broke it down' Tuesday, January 30, 1968 Western Front 3 By CYNTHIA EDMNGS FineArts Editor The dynamic, the soulful Lou Rawls was definitely ''breakin' it down" Thursday night inCarver Gym. Opening the show with "Stormy Monday," he went smoothly into the somber blues of "St.James Infirmary," an old dixieland tune he dresses up into a sound that is totally contemporary. Rawlshas a rare knack of injecting humor into his music without seeming ludicrous... Swinging through "Inthe Evening when the Sun Goes Down," he told how it feels to come home to an empty apartment and aT.V. dinner instead of a home-cooked meal of "soul food." He also referred to the danger of the"almighty hawk" in Bellingham and in his hometown of Chicago. Leading the second half of the show was Patience Valentine, a petite-sized soul sister who belts out a sensational sound. Miss Valentine, whose style resembles that of Aretha Franklin, sang such favorites as "Respect," "Ode to Billy Joe," and"Alfie." Rawls returned on stage, continuing the "new generation of sounds" with "Love is a Hurtin Thing," "Yesterday," and wrapping it up with "Dead-end Street." Lou Rawls doesn't capture the audience byjumping and dancing. He simply walks out, picks up the mike, and proceeds to sing. But that's all LouRawls has to do.

Apedestrian education campaign will be planned by the campus security, togetherwith student personnel and student government, to inform students of general safety precautions suchas wearing light-colored cothing at night and crossing in only marked areas. 2. Lighting facilities will beimproved on High Street, especially in the areas of high accidents. 3. The city is to remark andrelocate crosswalk areas and repaint them solid yellow with reflecting paint for night. Eventuallythe problem will be alleviated by a proposed bypass to High Street but until then, the present situationmust be improved, said Harold Goltz, director of campus planning.

Upon recommendation by the Student Academic Advisory Board, theAcademic Council approved the change unanimously. Under the present four-week withdrawaldeadline some students receive mid-term deficiencies after the date to withdraw without a penalty.Because some courses have only mid-quarter and final exams, these students are unaware of poorperformance until it is too late to withdraw with a "W" without going through special procedures.Professors complain they sometimes must give exams before they wish to meet the deadline.Since the college catalog must state current regulations to make them binding on students and faculty,the change can't be made until the new catalog is published.

The recommendation will be presented to the Board ofTrustees for final approval. Dr. Merle Meyer, chairman of the Psychology Department, said that themajor difference between the new program and the present master of arts degree will be an option on the foreign language requirement. The M.S. degree will put emphasis on a math-statistics-computerprogram. The council also heard Dr. Donald Call, Chairman of the Sociology-Anthrolology Department, propose that work get underway for a master of arts degree in sociology. A M.A. program inanthropology would also be developed as soon as staffing and course offering could be taken care of.The Council also considered whether resident credit should be given to post-baccalaureate students forwork in off-campus courses. Similiar credit is already given to graduate students working such places as oceanographic stations, nuclear reactors and observatories. Since the proposal, however, isdirected to certificate rather than to graduate degree students, the council returned the matter to theAcademic Council with its comments. In its Jan. 16 meeting, the Graduate Council unanimouslypassed a proposal to make twelve credit hours*instead of ten, the maximum load for any teachinggraduate assistant in any quarter.

The person had tried to embarrass Goldwater by asking him if he felt right abouttaking the $2,000 for his appearance here. The loaded question was, "Don t you think you should leave itto education? " Goldwater answered that it would be used for education: now that his children aregrown and educated he is putting 10 other students through college. Goldwater's answer is a lesson thatverbal affronts, smelling much like Eartha Kitt's recent public outrage at Lady Bird Johnson, are often just noise. â€”Jeanne Doering.

Jack the Ripper was enthusiastic too. Neva Jones Soph., physical science Wants to debate Editor: Dr. Carroll's observations on student violence in Peru are not onlyinaccurate but incomplete. But they do represent a common reaction toward violent unrest in anypart of the world. All student violence is NOT communist-inspired or led. To be crediting all such acts tothe communists is to give them more credit than they deserve. But by our acts we drive such groupsinto the hands of communism. By defining as "democratic" only those forms of behavior that lead tostable social systems and as "communist" those forms of behavior that lead to social change, we areleading our nation into another Vietnam wherein we will send our troops to Latin America to defend"democracy" while the communists will be helping the agents of change . . . i.e., those students whoare committed to a better world, which they do not see as flowing from the pseudo-democraticoligarchic societies that obtain in much of Latin America. I would rather have seen an educator of thecalibre of Dr. Carroll making friends with the agitators and revolutionaries, so as to understand, if notapprove, of their behavior. Hiding behind a shield of "consistent cowardice" precluded her seeing orunderstanding the acts she offers to discuss. On past trips to Latin America, I visited meetings ofcommunist- front organizations and had many contacts in the slums with those persons whowanted to change the social system. Dr. Carroll, I am sure, would have admired many of the womenwho were leaders of some of these "subversive" groups, and perhaps even try to help them. Since Dr.Carroll offers to present her views on the subject to any group that so desires I offer to debate withher on the topic, taking the position of defense of the students (and other such groups) in the LatinAmerican context. George F. Drake Assistant professor Sociology-Anthropology Flora listens, chatsduring weekly hours Complaints, ideas and just plain talking are reasons students and faculty cometo one of the two half-hour open discussions Interim President Charles J. Flora has each week.Thursdays at noon, two to five people usually come to see him, Flora said. Until last week, Flora hadn'treceived any visitors at his free 8 o'clock half-hour on Tuesday. But when two students showed up at mat time last week, he had to discard his conclusion that all students had eight o'clock classes, he said. Complaint subjects have in-. eluded such things as parking, the Mathes Hall elevator and the VikingUnion basement stairs. As a result of a complaint about me height of the traffic bumps behind theCampus School, the bumps were lowered, but they're still too high, Flora says. Some students come injust to talk, to test their ideas, he said. Initial nervousness among some of the visitors is dispelled byfile relaxed, friendly atmosphere and a cup of coffee, Flora said. He says these free periods help keep him informed about student concerns.

Suggestions made for Ed 301 instructors and observations A panel of studentspresented suggestions for Education 301 at a meeting of education faculty Jan. 18. Recognizing thatBellingham was saturated with student teaching and observations, and that transportation was difficult, they asked if more classroom observations could be brought to them through video-tape. They alsosaid that as future teachers they recognized individual differences, but couldn't justify the widedifferences in Education 301 discussion leaders. They suggested hiring special persons, such asoutstanding teachers, to lead the discussion groups. The panel was sponsored by the StudentWashington Education Association. Gene Luppold, state SWEA president, was moderator. Panelmembers were Marilyn Hammer, Rich Williams and Connie Swafford. Dr. Eldon Bond, acting chairman of the Education Department, said later that the main pitch of the panel was that students shouldget out in the field more. "Our problem is to get them out," he said. Achieving this two or three times for400 students is difficult, he pointed out because schools don't welcome interruptions. Observations in Seattle or Vancouver, B.C., would be good, he said, but difficult because of transportation.

Students tohave voice in presidential selection The student voice will be heard in the upcoming selection of a newcollege president, according to Associated Students President Dan Fredrickson. Last quarter,Fredrickson sent a letter to the Board of Trustees asking for student participation in the presidentialselection. When the response was favorable, he appointed a three-man committee who will interview all candidates who wish to talk to the students. The committee will be working with an outline of what students would like to see in the new president. The outline, drawn up by Fredrickson's staff, wasreleased to the AS Legislature. The outline has four basic The South Korean national basketball teamwill play the Western Vikings at 7 p.m. Sunday in Carver Gym. The Asian champs are contenders forthe Olympics.

Next, he should be sensitive to those goals. Fredrickson believes to achieve awoodworking relationship with the students, the new president should consider vital what students aresaying, and doing. The third quality is leadership. A president should be unafraid to take standsand to make decisions, the report said. Finally, the students desire an inspirational leader, one who can "meet the idealism of youth with the responsibility of experience." The student committee includesFredrickson, AS Vice- President Darrell Peterson, and Speaker of the Legislature Dave Cunningham.Flowers? j(0 of course! 1426 Cornwall Ave. 733-7630 Sale Formal* regularly to 49.95 one group now$15 to $25 Paity and Cocktail Dresses regularly to 39.95 now'12 and up telle l U m fatal OpenMonday Nights till 7 and Friday till 9 You'll find us at the end of Bay St. One block up from Holly St. 306W.

Wasko hadreceived last quarter a 300-signature petition complaining of smoke and stagnant air in the room.Cost of the project will be $66, Wasko said. Reusing fee hike likely Room and board fees will probably be upped next fall, according to Joseph Nusbaum, college business manager. The amount ofincrease is not definite at this point, but Nusbaum estimated that room and board will be about $25more a year than it has been. This would raise the annual fee from $745 to about $770. Nusbaum saidthat the additional money is needed to help finance campus building projects such as a libraryaddition and Fairhaven College. The matter will be taken up this month before the Board of Trustees.Candidates to come Arrangement for return to campus of the college presidential candidates will bedecided at "an early meeting," Dr. Robert Lawyer, chairman of the Presidential Selection Committee,said yesterday.

These persons were to be notifiedimmediately, Lawyer said. Now, the committee and trustees will be making plans for the candidates'return to campus, so they can meet more extensively with students, faculty and administration,Lawyer said. He predicted this would be done in the next two weeks.

Grants reach high, set month's record Western received $673,000 in financial grantsbetween Dec. 10 and Jan. 10 â€” more than any other month in history â€” Interim President Charles J.Flora announced Friday. The largest month of grants prior to this was in June of 1965, when the collegereceived $575,000. That had included one single grant of $400,000. Last month's grants, from the federalgovernment and the Rockefeller Foundation, are for summer institutes and academic research projects.A $100,000 grant for continuation of "Project Catch Up" was the largest single grant in the recentpackage, and came from the Rockefeller Foundation. The program enables junior high school studentswho are potential dropouts to come to the campus during the summer for classes and activities. TheNational Science Foundation (NSF) has granted $71,770 for a summer institute in math and computerscience for college teachers, and $94,000 for an institute during the next academic year in mathematicsfor secondary school teachers. Other grants, also from NSF, are for the departments of mathematics,physics, biology, history, geography, psychology, English and chemistry. AS ballot to survey ROTC and pass-fail ROTC and pass-fail surveys will be on the Feb. 15 Associated Students ballot, the A.S.Legislature decided Wednesday. The Student Academic Advisory Board (SAAB), which submitted theproposal, wants to sound out student opinion on ROTC and determine whether there is enough support for pass-fail to continue its research. The Legislature also approved a request for $500 to send 50 personsto the next student government workshop, at Harrison Hot Springs, B.C. In other action, Angus McLanewas unanimously named to SAAB. Students appointed to the Committee for Rights of UntenuredFaculty include Noel Bourasaw, Ken Bruland, Al Doan, Walt Hensley and Chris Smith.

Jeff McKay said he will report out this week a bill onhiring three students to clean the V.U. nightly. The A.S. Legislature meets at 4 p.m. tomorrow in V.U.208. Shakespeare's 'Dream' wakes up this week By JIM WALKER contributor To meet the variedtastes of theater-goers, every so often Bellingham offers a chance to see the living Shakespeare. Old Will is pulled from his restful sleep in the Stratford church cemetery, and his bones are kicked about thestage for three hours by modern thespians. In this tradition, Western Players, directed by Don Adams,will present perhaps Shakespeare's finest comedy, "A Midsummer- Night's Dream." The play opens at8:15 p.m. Thursday in the Auditorium, and will also run on Friday and Saturday evenings. Tickets areavailable at the VU. desk and at the door. Although written without formal source, the play is filled withpersonal and political allusions 'to the court of Elizabeth 1. Much of the satire will be lost to the modernaudience, who will hopefully be caught in the magical fantasy and poetic mood of the play. More thanmost of Shakespeare's works, "A Midsummer-Night's Dream" calls for the audience's imagination. It is aplay of love, but it is also dream and fantasy webbed in complication and comedy. The action is movedby character, and this cast certainly has their work cut out. The mood is enhanced by the set andlighting. For this performance, the set is designed by Dennis Catrell, with lighting by Terry Reiniger.Don Adams executed the costumes, and the job of choreographer is done by Michael Ingersoll. Thefamous plot follows the entanglements of two pairs of lovers â€” Hermia and Lysander, and Demetrius and Helena â€” whose affections are switched by actions of the mischievous Puck. The fairy queen, Titania,is also fooled with a love potion and falls in love with Bottom the Weaver, whose head has been turnedinto that of a donkey by Puck. Vagabond poet Edward English stopped at Western Friday afternoon tooffer his poetry on brotherly love and peace. Story on page 5. (Photo by Eagle e.t.) ---------- Western Front - 1968 February 6 - Page 2 ---------- 2 Western Front Tuesday, February 6, 1968 BOQ panel agrees xOn Aggression' goes too far By DANMEINS FRONT staff The five members of last Thursday's Book of the Quarter panel agreed that theauthor of "On Agression" was making too big a jump in comparing animal aggressiveness to humanbehavior. The author, Konrad Lorenz, constructs a biological basis for his theory that aggression is aninstinct passed through the evolutionary scale by the selective process. hi the final chapter, Lorenzoffers substitution as a way in which the aggressive drive might be diverted. Dr. Paul Woodring of Fair-haven College, disagreed with this process. "Substitution/' he said, "often leads to scape-goating. Aman who comes home mad at his boss might take it out on his wife." Jim Thomas, English major, wasskeptical about athletics as a diversion for aggression. He pointed out that the Greeks held Olympicgames even in times of war.

"Anindividual," he said, "can go climb a mountain to let off somesteam," but he still remembers the offense when he comes down. Woodring agreed with the authorthat a sense of humor was a good substitute for human aggression. As for genetics, Bosch said, "Ithink that even Lorenz would agree mat we're not going to use selective breeding to control aggression." Woodring asserted that aggression needs to be controlled rather than eliminated. "Aggression isvery motivating," he said, "and we find it in everything we do: sports, business,"and even in school." Dr.Bosch pointed out tnat to be completely meek under aggression is to succumb and tobe destroyed. A people have "to develop aggression if they are on the border of an aggressive country." Woodring added that aggression is not an instinct but a behavioral response in the face of conflict Sino-soviet hatefor U.S. unchanged despite split "The Russians and the Chinese do not hate us less because oftheir problems," Sino- Raphael Green Sino-Soviet expert Soviet expert Raphael Green said lastTuesday. Green said neither country has given up their goal of Communist world domination. They justdisagree on how to achieve it. "It's not, if we should be buried, but how we should be buried." he said. The Communists are split on coexistence with (he West, Green said. Russia favors it, but China woulduse war to spread communism. Green said disputes between the two countries are nothing new. More than 900,000 square miles of land was taken from the Chinese by the Russian tzars, including territorynorth of Manchuria, the maritime provinces, and half of Soviet central Asia. The Chinese are still tryingto get it back. Green's audience saw films he made inside China and the US.S.R. on five trips between1956 and 1966. Committee investigates art class, light show The Squires LIVE Academic Dean R. D.Brown has appointed an ad hoc committee on Art 400, "Special Problems in Lights " His actionwas precipitated by publicity about the "Bellingham Flashes", a dance-light group whose Jan. 20 show at Portland State College was halted two-thirds of the way through. A hired female chaperon thoughtthe show's symbolism was indecent. "MIGHT AS WELL HAVE HIM STOP BY ENNEN'S WHILE HE'SAT IT." ENNEN'S THRIFTWAY r HIGH AND HOLLY "WHERE EVERY CUSTOMER If The ad hoccommittee, headed up by Dr. Joseph Hashisaki, chairman of the math department, will view theshow in question. The committee will consult with David Marsh, art department chairman and LawrenceHanson, assistant art professor. Questions to be answered by Feb. 10 by the committee include: "Isthe course and its content a regular part of the curriculum and is it educationally appropriate?â€”Arethe activities of this course and the light show appropriate as public presentations? Was anyimproper use made of state materials or facilities?" Larry Hanson, director of the halted show andinstructor of Art 400, said there is no official connection between the "Bellingham Flash" and thecollege. Students and former students of Hanson mainly make up the group, he said. Of thegroup's performance in Portland, Hanson said nothing distasteful was present, although the group is"working on the edges of morality." Other members of the ad hoc committee are Annis Hovde,associate professor of English; Richard Purtill, assistant professor of philosophy; Marjorie Ryan,associate professor of English; and Gene Vike, associate professor of art. Warning given on programplanning Student program planning for spring quarter based on the Committee on Liberal Education(COLE) recommendations is "premature and may place the student in jeopardy," Academic Dean R.

Fairhaven funding troubledDAVE ROBINSQN 516 EAST HOLLY PICK-UP ft DELIVERY TIRES â€” BATTERIES MINOR REPAIRS 733-8000 Fairhaven College construction could be slowed by congressional cuts in federal building loan aid for colleges and universities. Cuts in construction funds are held up until the end of fiscalyear, June 30, but Congress could still hold back the money then. The college has already been toldthat $4 million in federally guranteed loan funds is not a-vailable for construction of non-academicbuildings for Fairhaven College, Harold Goltz, director of campus planning, said. He thinks alternatemethods of financing can be used, pointing out the possibility of selling nontaxable, five per centbonds. Reduction of federal building grants for colleges could hurt Western too, Goltz said. The$5,493,075 previously allotted for Washington colleges has been reduced to $3,921,752, he said. Nowbefore the Washington Higher Education Facilities Commission, the state agency which allots thesegrant funds, are two applications from Western. Goltz hopes the grant for one-third of the neededlibrary addition will go through because it is the number one priority application. The grant wouldprovide $633,- 500 of the $1,900,500 building cost, Goltz said. One-third of the $393,120 cost of theFairhaven Academic facility would be provided by approval of the other application. An answer on the grant applications is expected in March, Goltz said. First-year experiences told by six Westerngraduates Six first-year teachers, all Western graduates, agreed last week mat student teaching wasthe most valuable part of their teacher preparation. The panel, held last Thursday, was sponsored by theStudent Washington Education Association and Kappa Delta Pi. Included were Mrs. JeanneChadwick, who teaches the second grade; Thomas Thomas, third grade; Mrs. Rosemary Meyers,fourth grade; Gerald Alford, fifth grade; Mrs. Margaret Trott, middle school; and Donald Krag, highschool. Miss Dorothy Rice, senior, served as moderator. Questioned about what changes they mightrecommend in the teaching curriculum, the panel suggested that student teaching experiences shouldbe extended to at least a year. Motivation, another question topic, was easy to instill in elementaryschool-age children, according to Mrs. Chadwick and Thomas. Krag suggested that it was harder tomotivate high school students, especially in elective courses^such as drama, and Mrs. Trott agreed.The meeting concluded after each teacher recounted his most memorable experience. Mrs. Chadwicktold of having a spider dropped into her hand by a restless second grader, and Mrs. Meyers recalledseeing a student suddenly "absolutely bloom" during a talk.

Magnolia ---------- Western Front - 1968 February 6 - Page 4 ---------- 4 Western Front Tuesday, February 6, 1968 Editorial Letters to the Editor Make literature separateWestern's humanities sequence is valuable, but it might be more effective if broken up. The seven-creditchunk is unrealistic, especially when it often accounts for half a student's class load. The material mightjust as well be given in two courses. One might be a four-credit lecture class in history, art and music,with three to four exams during the quarter. Upgrading study of interrelated western literature, which isneeded according to a Student Academic Advisory Board (SAAB) poll completed last quarter, could be achieved concomitant with English composition through two options. One would be a two-credit courseonly on the correlative humanities literature, stressing class discussion and writing. The three-creditEnglish composition course would complement this. Another option could be a four-credit Englishcomposition course using mainly the humanities literature. Separating study of literature from that of art,history and music would recognize the irregularities in grading practices for the present humanitiescourse. Written expression and literature are too different from lectures to have to vie with IBM-scoredtests for a composite grade. The humanities idea shouldn't be dumped, though. It is good, as a SAABpoll has shown. Nearly 80 per cent of those who had taken the course, and 90 per cent of those who hadnot taken it, termed humanities as "most valuable.'' â€”Jeanne Doering "This is your housemotherspeaking!

Darcy Crane Junior, art Need book worms Editor: Western is lucky to have the use of the Wilson Library. There are so many fine books there to study for additional classinformation or just to read that it is astounding. On Jan. 25 I checked out the book by S. WellsWilliams on the "Middle Kingdom." It was antiquated, being copyrighted in 1882 and published in 1901,but it contained a very detailed source of information on Chinese history, social structure, andgeography. But I was shocked to find that I was the first person to have borrowed this book in nearly 20years. This is a great shame and a complete waste of a fine source material. We students have thislarge library at our disposal, and yet fail to use it for the basic purpose of reading to increase ourknowledge. I wish more people would use the library just to read a good book than to limit its use onlyto class assignments, because a waste of this sort reflects badly upon this intellectual community.Stephen L.

Bv THADDEUS SPR ATLEN associate professor of economics (onleave, 1967-68) Philosophically and educationally, I believe such a program is contrary to the idealsand purposes of general higher education â€” to foster learning in an environment in which thecommitment is to the ideals of open-mindedness, humane values, and understanding based oncritical, rational, and comprehensive approaches to knowledge. Military training can do little morethan pay lip service to some of these values because it is committed to the development of specialists in mass-killing technology. That it has many scientific and technical ramifications in such diverse fieldsas electronics, chemistry, meteorology, psychology, mathematics and economics is well known.Many capable young men find it challenging. But presumably it is not the function of general highereducation to cater to group interests without regard for the main purpose of its pursuit ofknowledge. My contention on this point is simply that military training is not consistent with the kind ofinstitution that Western supposedly desires to become. Operationally and physically, I believe theintroduction of such a program would have a repressive effect on the general climate or atmosphere. In view of the parochialism that prevales this would only be yet another obstacle to achieving thebroad perspective that befits a quality academic institution. After all,R.O.T.C. programs fosterchauvinism of the most obvious kind, and stress author- Editor's note: This statement opposing theestablishment of an ROTC unit at Western was received by the Student Academic Advisory Board.Next week, another faculty member will write supporting the ROTC proposal. itarianism, conformityand ceremony unrestrained by critical evaluation and debate. The emphasis on fancy uniforms^replete with brass buttons, military indoctrination and drill, and deference and obedience to superiorofficers, are some of the anti-intellectual aspects of such programs which come to mind. Furthermore, valuable college time and facilities would be consumed in a manner that, considering otheralternatives, would make such a choice highly questionable. Politically, the presence of such a unitgives a built-in base of support to the industrial-military complex, a growing power alliance in theeconomy. At the level of a single institution, it means full numerical and ideological support to awell - entrenched military posture. The present war in Vietnam may be used as an example. AnROTC unit and the faculty in military science and tactics associated with it would have the options ofsilence, acceptance, and active support of whatever policy the administration in office happens to be following. Questioning, criticism and opposition are ruled out. And this includes such morally andmilitarily questionable tactics as defoliation, saturation bombing, wholesale destruction of"suspected" enemy villages, hot pursuit of troops and planes into the territory of other nationals(non-combatants), and extending the war into Laos and Cambodia. Such a stifling commitmentcontributes little toward the debate and understanding required for meeting the crises of national and international affairs. At least the non-military person like myself has to bear the burden of beingchallenged, with the challenger expecting a rational and factually-based defense of the positiontaken on such an important issue. Culturally, I believe the rewards of conformity are sufficientlypervasive so as not to require the kind of further conditioning and indoctrination which, for the sake ofmilitary as well as administrative efficiency, accompanies such programs. National securityrequirements could be better met through the reliance on the military academies and militaryschools such as The Citadel and Virginia Military Institute. Young men seeking other alternatives canfind well established programs in any of the land-grant colleges and universities. If this is notsufficient as vocational options, college graduates can enter special officer training coursesconducted by the military service of their interest and taste. In sum, I believe that whateveradvantages that may be cited for establishing such a program at Western should be cast as benefitsonly at the price of the considerations which I have suggested. This adds up, in my view, to a price thatis much too high.

He said at least 20 positions will be open. This is more than a third of the55-member resident aide staff. Applications are available in the Office of Residence Hall Programs,located in the Housing and Food Service Building, behind the Music Building. Persons who haveapplications on file and want to re-apply should notify the office to activate their files, Romine said.Applicants must have sophomore standings by fall of 1968 and not be on academic probation,Romine said. He said the staff is looking for persons with leadership qualities who "are interested inworking with people." Residency in a dorm is preferable, but not required, Romine said. Guidedtours this week Two guided tours through the Georgia-Pacific paper mill will be sponsored this weekbyAction for Conservation, the group said. The tours meet at 2 p.m. Thursday and Friday in front of theV.U. Lounge. At 7:30 p.m. Wednesday a Georgia - Pacific representative will address A.C. members on "The Influence of National Parks on the Timber Industry." Resident aides earn a salary equivalent toroom and board. Their duties include advisement of dorm government and work with academic andsocial problems. They are also responsible for discipline in their living units, Romine said, "not asproctors but as aids to students." In addition they have administrative responsibilities gt; whichinclude dorm staffing. Resident aides and directors have a four-day orientation prior to the opening ofschool in September, where they are introduced to the student services department. They alsoattend one of two Rosario conferences and an in-service training day held in February. This is "to keepcommunications going/' said Romine. By CYNTHIA EDDINGS fine arts editor "God is here; everyliving thing is God." This was the message conveyed by vagabond poet Edward English during hisreading here last Friday. English, making use of bizarre imagery, continually referred to the "blackbread" of earth, "the yellow, red, white, and black birds" of the human race, and the "red wine" or blood ofsurvival. He incorporates into his works, a definite distinction between America and the United States.During an interview he explained this distinction. He believes that America consists of the 13 originalcolonies, and that there are only 37 states in the union. The "first White House" is in Alabama, he says.English, who began writing poetry in 1957, was walking along the beach when "just like a wave comin'in,the words came into my mouth and I wrote them down." Now he is trying to explain them to others. Heis not paid for his poetry readings, but instead lives from the contributions that people give him afterhearing his poetry.

Show more1968_1007 ---------- Western Front - 1968 October 7 - Page 1 ---------- Residents organize to endorse grape boycott A number of leftist groups on campus have organized toendorse the boycott of California table grapes in Bellingham. There will be an informational picketaround a Bellingham supermarket on Saturday. Details of me picket will be publicized tomorrow.Presently, Al's Savewell stores are the only markets in town that support the boycott. The grapeworkers strike began Sept. 8, 1965. There are now nine contracts, almost all with companies whohave visible wine products on the market. The rates of these workers are presently so low that a manwho works 40 hours each week, for 52 weeks will earn less than $2,400 per year. Agricultural workersover the entire nation stand at the bottom of the wage scale. Farm workers rank lowest in annualincome of all of our nation's working people for the simple reason that, without some leverage orpressure, employers are not going to pay as much as they can afford, but rather as little as they canget away with. From the beginning of the strike the farm workers union, led by Cesar Chavez and LarryItliong, has offered to have union representation elections to determine whether the workers want to be represented by the union. The union, The United Farm Workers of California (UF-WOC), has won everyelection and card check to date. (An election is something you have before a strike as a way to avoida strike; all offers for elections were made by the workers prior to the strikes and boycotts.) After arenewed organizing drive in May 1967 and repeated offers to hold elections, the UFWOC called a strikeagainst Giumarra Vineyards Corporation on Aug. 3, 1967. The company refused to discusselections or bargaining. Most of Giumarra's 1,100 workers left the fields Aug. 3, 4, 5. Giumarra is thefirst major table grape grower that the union has focused pressure on. Giumarra owns 12,500 acres in Tulare and Kern Counties, over 6,000 acres of grapes. The early boycott effort was primarily a matter ofurging buyers not to handle Giumarra's grapes, marketed under six labels. Other grape growers began loaning their labels to Giumarra. The Company is now marketing grapes under 100 different labels.It is increasingly difficult to distinguish Giumarra grapes from other California grapes. Giumarra hasresisted all efforts to mediate the dispute. The following independent groups and individuals have made direct approaches: the Bishop of Fresno, an Inter-Faith Committee from Los Angeles, California State Conciliation Service, The Director of the California Migrant Ministray. The union now has certifiedstrikes with Delano area grape growers (Sept., 1965), Coachella Valley grape growers (June, 1968), andSouthern Kern County grape growers (July 1968); These farms grow the major portion of California tablegrapes. California produces 90 to 95 per cent of the country's table grapes. The following is a list ofindividuals in this area who are supporting the boycott: Don McLeod, Fairhaven faculty FrankMorrow, Philosophy dept.

Societycannot have law and order without justice, Slade Gorton. Republican candidate for state attorneygeneral told a near-capacity audience in the VU lounge Friday. Gorton and Art Fletcher, Republicancandidate for lieutenant governor visited Western as the last leg of a 12-campus "fly-in" conceived andorganized by Action for Washington. "It is ironic that the law and order issue is the campaignslogan of the one man who. as a governor, defied more laws than any other." Gorton said in his attack oi former-Governor George Wallace of Alabama. "Wallace's campaign slogan should be 'my law and myorder' " he added. Gorton, a state representative from Seattle since 1959, was uncontested in theSeptember primary election. He will face Democratic candidate John McCutcheon in the November 5general election. The House majority leader is a member of the Seattle-King County, Washington andAmerican Bar Associations. He was graduated from Dartmouth College, and attended ColumbiaUniversity. Fletcher, a pasco city councilman and a member of the Governor's Urban AffairsAdvisory Council, defeated hydroplane driver Bill Muncey for the Republican nomination forlieutenant governor in the primary election. He will oppose incumbent Lieutenant Governor JohnCherberg in November. A former professional football player for the Los Angeles Rams and theBaltimore Colts, Fletcher received his Bachelor of Arts degree from Washburn University, Topeka,Kansas, In political science. He has organized several neighborhood development corporationsincluding the East Pasco Self Help Co-operative Association. Fletcher sees the generation ofcollege students as "the involved generation", he said, "Young people today are concerned, andthey are involved." He would like to see the minimum voting age lowered to 18, he said. "The collegestudent of today is perhaps as well-informed as his parents, if not more so," he said. He received aburst of laughter by calling Wallace ''the little corporal from Alabama." "They talk of law and order butthere is no justice in the little corporal from Alabama's brand of law and order," he said. Referring to thetrials of the murderers of the northern student civil rights workers in Mississippi, he said, "They weretried for violation of the Civil Rights Act, not murder, and there was no justice." paraphrasing an excerptfrom Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, he cried, "justice, wherefore art thou, justice?" Asked his opinion on the Indian fishing rights issue, Fletcher said, "If the original intent of the treaties were to givethe Indians unrevokable fishing rights, they should be respected." The foremost question, he said, isintent. "What was the original intent?" New freshmen, transfers up registration to 7,000 Gorton andFletcher meet supporters before speaking. -photos by Adams Although exact figures concerning fallenrollment are not in yet, Dean of Admissions Eugene Omey estimates the overall enrollment at morethan 7000. New freshmen comprise some 1725 students, including Fair-haven but not Project Overcome, as compared to 1537 froshinthe fall of 1967. Undergraduate transfer students numbered about 925 incomparison with 761 last year. Exact figures will not be available until sometime during this week,due to late registration and an uncertain count of student teachers who must be included as wellEstimates of projectedenroll-ments at Western are determined partially on the basis of the number ofstudents who attend Washington high schools. According to Mr. Omey, approximately 3.38 percent of the students who are graduated attend Western their freshman year, a figure which takes intoconsideration the 5 per cent who drop out of high school before graduation. While this figure seemssmall, it must be realized that only about 40 per cent of the graduates attend college at all and abouthalf of those attend junior colleges. The rest must be divided amongst various four-year institutions. ---------- Western Front - 1968 October 7 - Page 2 ---------- 2 Western Front Monday, October 7, 1968 Panther speaks on revolution Aaron Dixon, captain of theBlack Panthers of Seattle, spoke at Seattle University last Friday on the "American Revolution;1968" and the role of the Black Panther Party in this revolution. Dixon, 19 is the Seattle andWashington State panther leader. He is an English major at the University of Washington and a1967 graduate of Garfield High School. Said Dixon: 'It has become obvious that a nonviolent attitude is not the answer and that the whites control the destiny of groups like the National Association forthe Advancement of Colored People, the Congress of Racial Equality and the Urban League." Hisexplanation of the name Black Panthers is: "The panther is a beautiful black animal that will notattack unless attacked. The Panthers are a political organization which will use the necessary tactics to reach goals and objectives." The Panthers made news in Seattle a few weeks ago when they entered a Rainier Beach High School with rifles to gain assurance from the principal that Black students were not being harrassed by whites. The panthers were instrumental in leading a boycott against central areastores which were charged as being outlets for the narcotics trade. The panthers were organized in1963 in Lyons County, Ala., by the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. They are organizedon a military basis with head-quarters in Oakland, California. The 10=point platform drafted by theBlack Panther Party is called, What We Want. The 10 points are: â€” "We want freedom. We wantpower to determine the destiny of our Black community. â€”"We want full employment for our people.â€”"We want an end to the robbery by the white man of our Black community. â€”"We want decenthousing, fit for shelter of human beings, â€”"We want education for our people that exposes the truenature of this decadent American society. We want education that teaches us our true history andour role in the present day society. â€” "We want all Black men to be exempt from military service.â€”' *We want an immediate end to police brutality and murder of Black people. â€”"We want freedom for all black men in federal, state, county, and city prisons and jails. â€”"We want all Black people whenbrought to trial to be tried in court by a jury of their peer group or people from their Black communities,as defined by the constitution of the United States. â€” "We want land, bread, housing, education,clothing, justice, and peace, and as our major political objective, a United Nationsâ€”supervisedplebiscite to be held throughout the Black colony in which only Black colonial subjects will be allowed to participate, for the purpose of determining the will of Black people as to their national destiny."VICOED plans to become permanent Jay Martin and Betty Macaluso ponder the curious and the bizarre.â€”photo by heitzman Play reveals slogan man Ours is becoming an increasingly visually orientedworld, with most of the things we learn coming through our eyes. West* em's Visual CommunicationsEducation (VICOED) program attempts to train students to effectively communicate through thevisual arts. Since 1966 Western has been running a pilot program involving about 40 students. Thisyear VICOED intends to go permanent. The Academic Council is now considering a proposal for aVICOED program as a permanent part of the curriculum. The main goal of this program is to develop students with a broad, integrated knowledge of visual communication techniques. The increasingspecial, ization of knowledge and skills in our economy has made it increasingly difficult to find gen-eralists â€” those who have a INTERESTED IN AN OVERSEAS CAREER? MRS. JEAN T. BUSH willbe on the campus OCTOBER 24,1968 to discuss the training offered at A.I.F.T. (an intensive ninemonths program of post graduate study) and the job opportunities open to graduates in the field ofINTERNATIONAL TRADE and GOVERNMENT SERVICE. broad knowledge of an entire field. This typeof general knowledge is particularly important in a field like visual communications whichencompasses so many different disciplines. To give students this broad knowledge and enable them toeffectively use it in industry or education, VICOED is running a program on the high school, communitycollege, and the 4- year collegelevel. The high school program is being carried on at schools in BritishColumbia, Arizona, and Hawaii. This level aims mainly at a development of basic skills and knowledge suitable either for continuing education or for entry into industry. The community college level programis in progress in Seattle and Milwaukee. Once again the program is both for those who plan to godirectly on to industrial occupations and for those who plan to transfer to a 4- year college. Thepeople who transfer can do so without losing credit for the visual communications course they havealready taken. The College program at Western prepares students either for teaching or for jobs inindustry. Both groups take the same courses with the education students adding teachereducation programs to the basic VICOED course. The entire program has been made possiblethrough a $490,- 000 grant from the Ford Foundation and numerous contributions of equipment frominterested companies. Despite the potentialities of the program the road has not been entirelysmooth. There have been some funding problems which have caused difficulty in getting instructorson the lower levels of the program. Additionally there has been the predictable resistance of somepeople to a rather new concept. But even with these problems, VICOED has already gotten off theground and is just about ready to really start flying. "The Bald Soprano" a parody by Eugene Ionesco onthe man of slogans, he who lives by cliches â€”the empty and dehumanized manâ€”was performed lastSaturday night by the Western Players. Seated in a semi-elliptical formation on the stage, theaudience watched the rhythmic movement of the players and listened to their brittle and patternedwordsâ€”properties â€” no longer purporting to communicate. Each conscience was revealed in theprattle of nonsensical conversation and the situation grew more intense and more absurd. Ionesco'speople, the Smiths and the Martins, played by Grant Kinnear, Ellen Catrell, jay Martin and BettyMacalusoâ‚¬ the Smith maid and the fire chief, Carolyn Olberding and Walter Smith, were the empty,the dehumanized, and "universal bourgeoisie." They were the exaggerations, the grossly confusedand frustrated people of the "absurd," the people who sit in their parlours and say, "Speaking of that, the Bald Soprano." These people revealed the bizarre truth in a bizarre world.

Uninformed frosh smirks at'system7 A wide-eyed freshman glanced nervously around as he asked his question. "How do you get to the swimming pool?" A third year student finally answered his question, after deciding that talking toa freshman was better than pouting over standing in his 3,473rd line of his college career. As thatfreshman wandered off, another, at the beginning of the line, asked to checkoutsome P.E-. gear. "I needa swimsuit, towel, and . . . and . . . " the new student stammered. "I know," drawled the older student,handing him his swim-suit, roU and a card with his basket number, lock number, and a combination lock code. "What card do you want?" asked the frosh. "Here's my driver's license, my draft card, my BoyScout carrr . . . oops! "No, no, just leave your activity card here and pick it up when you bring yourswimsuit and roll back at the end of the period," cooed the tall, confident figure behind the "cage." Alook of amazement crept across the younger student's face as he realized he had to bring his swimsuitback every day. The "why couldn't I keep it all quarter" look, flashed in his eyes as he replied, "Well,that's o.k. I didn't need it today, anyway." The older students laughed as he angrily stalked off,grumbling something about the "system." That's o.k., freshman; you'll get the last laugh when yousee upperclassmen cursing next week because they can't remember what their combination is, orwhich locker they put their clothes in. ---------- Western Front - 1968 October 7 - Page 3 ---------- Fractured tunnies: or, Is sex old fashioned?!! Monday, October 7, 1968 Western Front 3 By ARTHURHOPPE Once upon a time there was a young lad named Horatio Alger, who was determined tostruggle and persevere and somehow get himself a good education. A good sex education. But thelittle lad faced many hurdles. The first was the local school board, which voted 5-4 against showingHoratio any sex education film. The second was Horatio's parents, who voted 2-0 against allowingHoratio to attend any Adult Movies. "Adult movies," thundered Horatio's father, "are corrupting themorals of our youth and destroying our American way of life." So Horatio was 18 and on his own beforehe saw his first Adult Movie. He didn't, of course, understand it. But he thrust forth his chin and vowedto persevere. For two years, Horatio persevered. He saw Adult Movies thrice weekly and twice onSaturdays. "It was a hard struggle," he said proudly on reaching 20, "but at last I have won myself agood sex education." It was then that he met Miss Penelope Trueheart and fell in love. "All I desire onthis earth," he said, falling to his knees one night in her apartment, "is to be the father of your child andspend the rest of my life as your husband." "Oh, dearest," said Miss Trueheart ecstatically, "when willwe be married?" "As soon as we have a child," said Horatio, drawing on his good sex education. "For we can't have one afterward, you know. People never do." "And now do we have a child?" she asked,blushing modestly. "There are several ways," said Horatio. "The easiest, I believe, is for you to smoke a cigarette on the couch. I will pounce on you. Your hand will go limp and the cigarette will fall on thecarpet. (We can use an ashtray, I suppose, if you worry about fire.) And then you will cry." "I don'tsmoke," said Miss Trueheart. "Then we'll have to throw our clothes on the floor," said Horatio, "though it isn't very tidy. But please turn up the heat first as we have to lie under just a sheet and talk. Then I willgo for a drive and you will cry." "Will you take me in your arms, dearest?" she asked hesitantly."Yes," said Horatio. "In the shower." "I don't have a shower," said Miss Trueheart, close to tears. "Well,I guess we can skip that," said Horatio dubiously, as he threw his tie on the floor. "Come, my love, I canhardly wait" So they threw their clothes on the floor, got under the sheet, talked, and then Horatiodressed and went for a drive while Miss Trueheart cried. But, oddly enough, though they faithfullyrepeated this routine every night for seven years, they never did have a child. With his good sexeducation, Horatio privately blamed Miss Trueheart for neither smoking nor having a shower. But he was too gallant to say so. Moral: Adult Movies may, indeed, destroy our way of life. And the human racealong with it. Mime Troupe returns Oct. 20 The San Francisco Mime Troupe, a group who was thecause of much controversy in Washington state as well as at Western in 1966, will make its returnappearance on campus on October 20 at 8-.30 p.m. in the auditorium. The Mime Troupe in 1966presented a show called "A MinÂ» strel Show or Civil Rights in a Cracker Barrel" which wasdescribed by Ken Robertson of The Bellingham Herald as "a return to the spirit that originally madetheater a living force in the structure of society." The controversy surrounding the show arose when itwas closed down midway through the performance in Olympia. Student body executive vice^res-identKen Riddell made the decision to let the Mime Troupe perform to Western's student body. Studentsprefer teaching jobs Fewer and fewer students are interested in material and industrial lobs thesedays, according to Dr. Sam Porter, chairman of the Technology department. Dr. Porter points outthat 10 years ago. when the first Sputnik sattehte was orbited, "engineering ranked first among theaspirations of all freshmen in the United States." 'Today it is nineteenth," he said. In placeoftechnicalandindus-trial jobs, students are turning to humane, literary, and social avocations. Dr. Porter believes there are two main reasons for this. First, industry has often been laggard in its attitudestowards changing times and has discouraged many bright young people. Second, and moreimportant, this is a reaction to the situation a few years ago when everyone wanted to be a scientist."The pendulum has just swung back the other way," Porter said. BOQ selection on individualism"Coming of Age in America," by Edgar Z. Friedenburg, was selected by the Book Report Committee asthe Book of the Quarter. Phyllis Edwards, chairman of Social Issues Committee, is negotiating to getFriedenburg to visit Western. If she succeeds a student-faculty panel will discuss and evaluate thebook. William H. O. Scott, circulation librarian of Wilson library, said that "Coming of Age in America" is a good choice and should be a provocative one. 'To those who have lost touch with the youngerpeople, the book should be enlightening,'' he said. He added that the focus of the book is onindividualism and is highly critical of education.

A poster of a raggedlittle Mexican girl reads: "Every California grape you buy helps keep this child hungry." Farm workershave been on strike now for three years, but all of their non-violent efforts have been met with resistancefrom growers. What the workers are fighting for could hardly be considered unreasonable. Is itunreasonable to want to be paid enough to feed and clothe one's family? Is it unreasonable to want toobtain the RIGHT to collective bargaining, unemployment insurance, health and welfare benefits?These are human rights which we have coming to us in this "Great Society," although they arecontinually denied to some. By ignoring these rights, the California growers are furthering the exploitation of a colored people, a practice employed by power structures since the time of slavery. The farmworkers have had to resort to the economic pressure of the boycott to obtain human dienitv. The boycottof all California table grapes has now reached this area. We have the opportunity to endorse theboycott to show our concern for our Mexican-American brothers who are being denied a living wage.Will you continue to keep that child hungry? â€”Cynthia Eddings We need incorporation . . . I had thegood fortune yesterday to chat with President Flora. "I'm anxious to see that your creativity andfreedom are not overly restricted," he told me, in reference to the line-of-authority here in the WesternFront office. His comment came as somewhat of a surprise to me because, as I told him, the degreeof freedom which is necessary for a high quality student newspaper will come about only when thenewspaper is totally divorced from the journalism departmentâ€”that is, only when the Western Frontceases to be an "academic laboratory" will it be a truly functional student voice. This fact is easily seenin view of the "plastic security blanket" Doering era of last year, in which the Western Front wastransformed into nothing more than a weekly coming events schedule. To prevent this type of atrocityfrom happening in the future, I have this suggestion for students â€”vote "yes" on the Western FrontIncorporation resolution which will be presented in the upcoming general election. It reads: "Resolved:that the Western Front be incorporated as a student newspaper. Further, that the Associated Studentsappoint a Publications Board of faculty and students to regulate newspaper policies." (Bill#69, Spring,1968) If passed, this resolution might Well provide Western with something entirely new yet badlyneededâ€” a student newspaper. â€”Mark Hoffmann From other campuses University of Washingtonâ€” A tutoring program for the economically disadvantaged student has been organized by the BSUand the Graduate and professional Student Senate. Winston Williams, director of the program,emphasized that this is a program by students for students, with assistance and cooperation, but nodirection, from the University administration. . The program is not limited to minority students but toanyone needing tutoring and unable to afford it. Said Winston: "The program is an effort to humanize theacademic community, and to educate the white student of his attitudes toward minority groups and theirneeds and attitudes toward him." University of British Columbia â€” "Do you want a pub in the Sub?"was the topic of discussion at a special general meeting last Tuesday. It was suggested by SocietyCoordinator Jill Cameron that "Students should come, listen, participate in the discussion, and bring beer along." . . , Grad student Peter Brock said his original intention to have pub-ins was to point out theabsurd state of the liquor laws, and not necessarily to get a license for SUB. "We hadn't even intendedto apply for a license," said Brock. "We thought we should do this just to bring the issue up." Theuniversity is a social organ and should be the vanguard of liberalism, so we thought it should start here."Counsellors generally agreed it would be almost impossible to get a permanent liquor license until theliquor laws were changed. External affairs officer Tobin Robbins pointed out there are only two pubs inB.C. not attached to hotels and those were set up before the liquor laws were made up. "I don't think the students who signed the petition requesting for this general meeting were aware of this and that it means a total revision of the laws," he said. Engineering representative Fraser Hodge brought up the questionof the amount of public support a pub in SUB has. Hodge said that the general feeling he had receivedwas that the public thought it was "just those stupid Students acting up again." Commerce representative Russ Grierson thought the public was in favor of the central issue, but that people felt students weregoing too far with pub-ins. Michigan State University â€” MSU has a 16- year-old mathematics professor, Edith Stern. Her LQ. has been tested fron 154 to 200, depending on the test. Edith learned to read at 2, played chess at 4, dropped out of junior high school at 12 and was admitted to college at 13. According to the university, she will deliver two hour algebra lectures twice a week, act as a consultant to studentsand grade tests in addition to taking three graduate courses. University of California at Berkeley â€”Eldridge Cleaver, the Peace and Freedom candidate for President and Minister of Information forOakland's Black Panthers, was scheduled to deliver ten of 20 lectures on the Berkeley campus in anexperimental course entitled "Dehumanization and Regeneration in the American Social Order." Theappointment immediately set off a tumultuous backlash from a wide range of California polticial figuresdemanding the discharge of Cleaver from the course. The issue predominated a tension-filled University of California (UC) Regents Meeting at UCLA where Cleaver ana all subsequent non-academicallyqualified guest lecturers were limited to one appearance. The decision was the first ever made by theRegents to infringe on professorial academic freedom, thus setting off a whole series of ramificationswithin the UC system, the major threat being posed to the freedom of academic reform. In addition,Governor Reagan, calling himself "a representative of the people," served warning to the board explicitly and to radical students and professors implicitly, that a top to bottom investigation of the Universitycould well be the outcome of the Cleaver controversy. rim*x^ "It's our landlord/' Campus calendarTODAYâ€” 11 a.m.: State-of-the-Campus address, Red Square or VU Lounge 11 a.m.-3 p.m.: StudentActivities Open House, VU 12 noon to 12:50 p.m.: ID pictures, VU 209 4-5 p.m.: AS Cabinet meeting,VU 209 6-8 p.m.: Continuing Studies registration, Hu 104 WEDNESDAY, OCT. 9â€” 7-8 p.m.: VikingSounders THURSDAY, OCT. 10â€” 4-6 p.m.: AS Legislative meeting, VU 208 7 p.m.: Sales TrainingInstitute, Hu 106 7:30-10p.m.: Alpine Club, HH 168 FRIDAY, OCT. 11â€” 1-3 p.m. Civil Service exams,M 226 3:30-4 p.m.: Young Republicans speakerâ€”Dan Evans, Aud 8 p.m.: AS movie "Psycho," L-4 9-12p.m.: Club515, VUCS SATURDAY, OCT. 12â€” 1:30 p.m.: Football at Whitworth Letters to the Editor Utters t t the titer M M I topic tf Sic Merest are aekeae if ttei are f (less thai 250 writ), accarata art letBates.

The problem is this â€” while Ed is officially registered as a resident voter in thestate of Washington, he at the same time is considered by the Admissions office as an out-of-statestudent and therefore must pay out-of-state tuition fees, which are double resident fees.

LONG ISLAND CITY, N.Y. 11101 ---------- Western Front - 1968 October 7 - Page 7 ---------- Monday, October 7, 1968 Western Front 7 Student teaching a test of 'survival of fittest' by DAN MEINSFront Staff Between puberty and the mena-pause comes that traumatic transition for all educationstudents known as "student teaching." Having survived the first month of the ritual at a smalltown high school, I consider myself an expert in the art of self-preservation. The change between thestudent role and what you "mink" is the teacher role involves prying loose a security blanket you'vebeen clutching for 17 years. While I haven't gone up the down staircase yet, I did acci-dently lockmyself in the faculty bathroom for twenty minutes last week. I've also experienced the weekly pepassemblies where the teachers keep their distance by standing against the gym wall in a firing line.Another "must" for the student teacher is chaperoning for a school dance. The first "must" is to bringear plugs, the second is to see no evil, smell no liquor, and taste none. The best surprise of all is thefaculty lounge, where everyone rushes for a smoke between classes. Otherwise known as HarperValley P.T.A., the faculty lounge reminds the student teacher that the faculty are no longer theenemies anymore, but are as human and corrupt as the students. The first thing I heard in the facultylounge was â€” "only 271 more days!" Now that there are only 241 more days left, I feel prompted topass on some helpful Heleoise hints. After you've separated the teachers' memos from absenteeforms, have read Classroom Psychology, and remembered to keep one chapter ahead of the students;engrave the Ten Commandments for student teachers on your forehead: I. I am the lord thy boss â€”and let them know it from the first day onward. II. Love thy students as thyselfâ€” just don't be buddy-buddy with them.

Two weeks ago, in a relatively peaceful action, campus radicals led by Studentsfor a Democratic Society closed down the opening day of registration. Then last week activitiesescalated when seven people were arrested by city police on the opening day of classes, following anoisy march and brief stoning of the university's chief administra-tionbuilding. In the process, theparticipants, many of them veterans of last spring's rebellion, have begun to rediscover their formermilitancy. But the search for that more elusive commodity â€” a strategy that can transform theserandom actions into a sustained revolutionary movement â€” still continues. On the broader" questions of strategy, however, the radicals remain openly divided. A small but vocal minority of SDS, mostlymembers of its labor committee, argued that the campus struggle should be linked this fall with theplight of me city's working classes. That position was eventually defeated in favor of keeping the focuscentered on the university. The same lines of division have been evident in recent discussions offuture actions. Labor committee supporters are backing a proposal for a mass trial at which both thestriking students and the administration would present their cases before a jury composed, ofstudents, faculty and members of the Morningside Heights community.. The same internal rancorevident on the campus was also reflected at sessions of the International Assembly of Revolutionary Student Movements which was sponsored here by Columbia SDS during registration week. About 20leftist students from Canada, Mexico, and a number of European countries joined several hundredAmerican students, mostly from New York City, for a week of discussion on the state of themovement internationally. The meetings, generally characterized by limited planning, frequentlybroke down into shouting contests over technical ideological points. One session which began withexpressions of soli-from the army in Mexico City was completely overturned one hour later after thediscussion turned to bitter arguments between French students over the spring rebellion in Paris. One issue that seems to be picking up more support is the question of university expansion into thecommunity. A major catalyst in the spring uprising was the attempt to stop construction of a gym on a portion of a public park in Harlem. One of the concessions won by the students was the temporary halt of those plans. But meanwhile, the university is moving swiftly on plans to develop a 40 - block areanorth of the campus which will displace nearly 10,000 low-income residents to make room for amanufacturing- research complex which will include middle-income housing almost exclusively.Equally objectionable is the fact that the contract to build the $180 million project has been let tocontractor Percy Uris, another university trustee. For tile moment, however, things remain quiet.The weather in New York these days is pleasantly warm and sunny. But things win change. Perhapswe darity with students under attack are headed for a long hot winter. Sociologist says indifference todrugs only solution "One might institute a daily public attention," Becker says, search of all rooms andperhaps, in addition, inaugurate a campus 'stop-and-frisk'law. But they are not going to do thesethings, so student drug use will continue." Becker believes that the deans are worried about student drug use, but they are more worried about the "great public-relations crisis" of campus narcotics raids andstudents on trial. Yet, Becker argues, the more administrators worry about student drug use, the more such embarrassing incidents they will have to deal with. "All increases in surveillance, of course,multiply the number of cases that come to ST. LOUIS, Mo. (LP.) â€” "Go ahead and smoke marijuana," said the dean, "just don't get caught" Probably no college administrator has ever given such advice. ButHoward S. Becker, a Northwestern University sociologist, believes that such an attitude on the part of deans is the only way that campus drug incidents can be halted. Becker writing in TRANSACTION, asocial science publication of Washington University, does not believe that student drug use canbe stopped. "Students want to use drugs and can easily do so; few college administrations will decide to use tiie totalitarian methods that would be required to stop it. Our most priceless possession isyour confidence and satisfaction Paxil Tfacellvi. feweten, 1240 Cornwall Ave. Next to Leopold HotelBecker's arguments are mainly based on marijuana-smoking, which he says is more widely used than LSD. Marijuana, he says, causes student health services much less trouble than alcohol or theamphetamines that many students take to stay awake while studying. "Marijuana," Bekcer says, "hasno demonstrable bad effects." Becker draws on his sociological studies of drug use to note thatdrug-taking students of today are quite unlike earlier drug users*, who learned to be careful about hidingtheir habit Today's students', he says, get caught because they are either ignorant of the precautionsthey might take to protect themselves from arrest or are convinced that they have "a constitutional rightto get high." "Administrators," B e cker concludes, "must take a calmer view of drug use and studentsmust become more cautious. The main obstacles to such a bargain will be nervous administrators afraidto take such a step and ideological students who wish a confrontation on the issue. But collegeadministrators have learned to live with sex and drink. They may yet be able to learn to live with drugs. 'GOOD FOOD GOOD BEVERAGE CAP HANSEN'S WASHINGTON STATE I.D.

The article, which lambaste teachers for treating students like slaves and students for sitting still for such second-class status, was originallywritten two years ago by Gerald Farber, an English professor at California State College, and was first printed in a Los Angeles underground newspaper. Since men it has brought censorship problems to a number oi campus newspapers which have reprinted it for their readers, because of its use of the word "nigger" and of selected profanity. Six instructors of freshman English at Minnesota added the essay to their course reading lists, calling it well-written and a good comment on student reactions. EnglishDepartment Chairman J. W, Clark thought differently. In a memo to English instructors last week,Clark banned the use of the essay in English classes, saying he thought its language "imprudent"and fearing that it would offend some students and their parents. ^Unsaid, but implied in the memo, was Clark's fear that not parents, but members of the Minnesota legislature, would take offense. Seniorfaculty members, the memo said, thought classroom use of the essay unwise, "especially in alegislative year." Earlier this week Clark withdrew t h e ban on the article, saying that teachers are freeto use it in their classes, and carving another notch in jerry Farber's well-marked six-shooter.

The league is for clubs with two teams, and also includes Seattle, Richmond, and the Red Lions of Vancouver. Western was supposed to open in Seattle lastweek, but the game was postponed because Western was not in school yet. Displaying their usualsmall quick backfield and aggressive scrum, the Viks threated the opposing goal line early butcouldn't break the ice until midway through the first half. An excellent scrum rush originating nearmid field carried the ball deep into Pocomo territory before it was passed out to Jeff Zygar on the wing. The rush included Bill Black. Mike Fowler, Jim Lee and Pat Hughes. just as Zygar was tackled, aboutfive yards from the ena zone, he passed the ball to Hughes, who raced to the corner for the score.Harry Dumptruck added the two point conversion to make the score 5=0. The Pocomos came back afew minutes later to even the match. An alert Pocomo wing hustled down field covering a ceammatespunt which took a backwards bounce and raced almost 40 yards for a try. The conversion tied the game until the second half. Harry Dumptruck gave Western the winning points with a penalty kick. Heplayed the wind, in his favor, perfectly to convert about a 40 yarder to making the score 8-5. Westernalmost scored twice more later in final half. Big Larry Gidner, who ran over and around the visitors allday. got to the end zone but was held up and couldn't down the ball for a score.

Glenn Hadland fired a 12-yard touchdown pass to Gary Aagard after Western's ButtsGiraud partially blocked an SFU punt with a minute remaining in the game. Lance Wilson then booted the all-important extra-point to give the Viks their first win in three tries this season. Both clubs showedstrong defense and sputtering offense throughout most of the game. The Clansmen scored with aminute left in the first half as Wayne Holm cappted a 77-yard march with a 38-yard touchdown toss. The Viks came back strong in the second half, only to have drives thwarted by the SFU defense of Vikingmistakes. The first big break for Western came as Tom Kline's punt rolled to the Clansman nine-yardline, covering 63 yards. The Vik Viks face Pirates A taste of victory may be all that coach FredEmerson's football team needed to get in a winning habit. Although last weekend's 7-6 win over SimonFraser was tough on ulcers it should give the young Viks enough confidence to handle Whitworth'swin-less Pirates, Saturday afternoon in Spokane. Whitworth has a new coaching staff this year and is using an overshifted V offense led by quarterback Al Luher. So far it has produced limited results withmany mistakes caused by the transition. Glenn Hadland and Steve Kear-by will still share the signalcalling load for Western this weekend. Mark Venn and John Weaver, who both ran for good yardageagainst Simon Fraser will switch off at the fullback position. Western is hoping for a dry Spokane fieldand a big victory over win hungry Whitworth. That should be enough to prepare them for a rematch withCentral here in two weeks. defense stiffened, and the ensuing SFU punt carried only to theClansman 25. From there the Vikings advanced to the Simon Fraser five-yard line, where they were heldon downs. Again the defense took over, with Giraud blocking the punt. Western took possession on the17-yard line and scored in four plays. Another standout for the Vikings was linebacker John Martin.Martin made several tackles and intercepted a Clansman pass. Western's Canadian players werealso instrumental in the defeat of their countymen. Besides Giraud, John Weaver made good yardageat fullback, while Al Jones and Mike Lynch stood out on defense. m Western line holds Clansmen.Backing up tough Vik line are Vic Randall ( 2 0 ) , Marv Nelson ( 6 7 ) , Gary Aagard ( 8 0 ) .

The five were arrested late Wednesday by Bellingham Police * Sgt LaVerne Geleynse, and booked for possession of marijuana. They have been released from jail on their personal recognizance. College officials told police that Campus SecurityOfficer George Steer was called when marijuana smoke was smelled coming from LeSage's room.Steer, admitted to the room by LeSage, found two whole marijuana cigarettes. While waiting for thepolice, college officials found one whole marijuana cigarette and a warm marijuana butt on the groundbelow the room. After police arrived, another whole and one partly-used marijuana cigarette werefound.

Kathy Cornelison, Walter Smith and Bill Barwise play characters who think theworld has wronged them in "Slow Dance on the Killing Ground," to be presented in a four-day run starting Thursday. (Photo by MacDonald) "Killing Ground' to dance in play starting Thursday "Slow Dance onthe Killing Ground" will be performed by the Western Players at 8:15 p.m. Thursday through Sunday in L-l. The cast consists of Walter j . smith as Randall, Bill Bar-wise as Glas, and Kathy cornelison as Rosie. The play, directed by Byron Sigler, takes place on the night of June 1, 1962 in a small candy store inNew York. Randall is an 18-year-old youth with an extraordinarily high I.O. Brought up neglectedly by hisprostitute mother, he has been in and out of jails and reform schools. His concept of the world as a killing ground is related throughout the play. Glas, the reserved but outspoken owner of the candy store, has aslight limp which he says he acquired in a Nazi concentration camp. Rosie is an unwed mother-to-bewho does not want her child and plans to have an abortion. The charcters coincidentally meet in the store and have little in common except for their feelings that the world has wronged them. Dean of StudentsJames Hitchman (Photo by Eagle e.t.) Hitchman answers charge For years the College has upheld thepolicy that students must carry twelve hours and have a 2.00 grade point average in order to hold office or employment. This quarter several students held office and carried less than twelve hours. Over threeweeks ago various advisers and student leaders were presented with the problem. After several verbal and written communications it was clear that the legislature and student body president refused to abide bythe twelve hour rule. The two legislators who carried less than twelve hours did resign, however. TheOffice of the Dean of Students is obligated to carry out rules, policies and procedures adopted by thefaculty, students and administration. In this instance, due to the position taken by the ASB government,there was no choice but to enforce the policy. On the other hand, the proper student, faculty andadministrative groups may consider changes in the policy. However, the present policy should beadhered to while it exists. Student legislators contend that they are treated in an authoritarian manner,when actually the administration has welcomed students as equals on the decision-making bodies of theCollege. â€”Dean of Students James Hitchman Council modifies COLE science recommendation TheAcademic Council modified in their meeting last Tuesday the Committee on Liberal Education(COLE) recommendation for natural science general education requirements which it had adoptedFeb. 6. For students choosing the option calling for physics and chemistry to be followed by geologyand biology, the council voted to add physical geography as an alternative to geology. Heavy oppositionto the addition, voiced by the physics, chemistry, geology and biology departments, failed tosway the council. Modification of general education physics, chemistry and biology courses to meet the needs of the non-major was urged in a joint statement from the Student Academic Advisory Boardand the General Education Committee The second option of the COLE committee, calling forspecialized science sequences, was modified by adoption of the General Education Committeerecommendation, less a geog- - raphy sequence.

Fredrickson said he was asking legislator Al Donaldson to submit a new bill and letter"severely reprimanding" Hitchman for interfering with the AS Legislature and carrying out their duties.The new bill was to go before the Legislature yesterday afternoon. Fredrickson said he felt there was "agreat deal of difference" between asking for Hitchman's resignation and telling Hitchman the Legislaturedisagreed with his actions. The Legislature had passed during a special five-hour session Wednesdaynight a motion to ask Flora for Hitchman's resignation. The motion came after the Legislature acceptedunanimously the resignations of two legislators, Noel Bourasaw and Drew Pettus, who did not meet the12-hour requirement to sit on the board. The requirement is listed as college policy on page 4 of "TheNavigator" and in Article III, Section 4 of the AS Constitution. Legislator Al Donaldson, who voted for themeasure, explained, "We accepted the resignations because the two were in the wrong. We passed thebill asking for the resignation because it is our right to determine who is going to represent the students." Bourasaw and Pettus had been notified by Hitchman Wednesday that if they did not resign by 5 p.m.that day, the matter would be sent to the college disciplinary board. The Legislature had rejected at itsmeeting last Monday an earlier ultimatum that the two resign by Feb. 20. Hitchman said Friday in aninterview that Monday's statement was the fourth communication concerning ineligibility. He said he hadnotified AS President Dan Fredrickson and speaker of the legislature Dave Cunningham of the ineligibilitythree weeks ago, and asked them to act on it Wednesday night's decision to write Flora was opposed by legislators Steve Cooper, Jon Hatch and Dennis Hindman. Cooper said, "I did not vote for the bill because I do not believe the action of this board was responsible. I feel further that this demanding resolution willdo a great deal to hinder working relationships between the administration and the student legislature."AS Vice-President Darrell Peterson also opposed asking for Hitchman's resignation, although he did notvote on the bill. Peterson said Thursday in an interview, "You should play by the rules until you changethem, and then you should play by the rules again until they are changed again." He attributed theLegislature's hostility toward the Dean of Students to "a bad case of misinformation since the legislativebody as a whole wasn't informed of the situation." In connection with the resignations dispute, theLegislature voted to change requirements for legislators to seven credit hours and a 2.4 grade-pointaverage. Because this is a constitutional change and was not approved unanimously by the Legislature,the change must have two-thirds approval of those voting in the spring quarter elections. Stuck up? No,nothing vein about these blood donors. Bruce Eagle, foreground, was one off 101 donors in theAssociated Students Blood Drive Wednesday.

"The right of dissent has got to be given priority" over thehiring and dismissal procedures of the college, he said. Ellis and Fleetwood agreed that if a facultymember is contributing to the college community in his teaching and research, "we should learn tolive with him, even if we don't like him." Dr. Arthur Hicks, English professor o b s e r v e d mat "I know of no time when an untenured faculty member has not been told why his contract wasn't renewed." Everyfaculty member has the right to ask the faculty council for a hearing if he feels his rights have beenviolated. "I known of no case where this has been denied," he added. By DAN MEINS FRONT staffAggression: cultural pattern or instinct? The final Book of the Quarter panel last Monday argued on bom sides of this crucial point to Konrad Lorenz's "On Aggression." Dr. Howard Harris, associateprofessor of anthropology, said that if there are inherent patterns of aggression in man, they have been so overlapped with cultural patterns that they have become indistinguishable. If culture, a learnedpattern, makes it possible for gentle men to drop an H-bomb or napalm, he said, then culture canprevent it too. Men will have peace when they want peace. Dr. A. Carter Broad, professor of biologyand chairman of the department, differed. Lo-renz, he said, "spends most of the book simplyoverwhelming us with data" that aggression is an instinct in animals and man. Since man is an evolvedanimal, he said, his nature is also evolved. There is even in my- Binyon Optometrists 7 3 3 - 9 3 0 01328 Cornwall COMPLETE OPTOMETRIC SERVICE CONTACT LENSES â€” FASHION FRAMES Dr.Leroy H. Freeman and Associates self, he added, an aggression that serves a biological function.William H. O. Scott, chairman of the BOQ committee, said that today we have a malfunctioning ofthe aggressive instinct. It is well and good if used in the natural processes of selection, he said, but inman at the moment, it is not behaving correctly. The question is what to do about it. Broad said thatthis is just Lorenz's point. In a scientific way, he tries to understand aggression by observation ratherthan analogy. It is not until the last chapter that he offers a solution. Harris made a plea forconventional morality. In the process of cultural evolution, he said, man developed a moral code:"Thou shalt not kill thy brother with a hand axe." If man can do this, he can develop a moral codeagainst more dangerous weapons. Although culture is a very complex thing, aggression must beinhibited through cultural norms, he said. Broad said that inhibiting aggression through culturalredirection is like "trying to prevent an explosion by tightening the lid." Inhibition is not the answer,he said; it is recorrec-tion. Scott upheld the author's solution to aggression. The concludingparagraph, he said, speaks of love on a broad basis. Perhaps we are witnessing before our very eyes,the evolution of a love generation, he said.

The group had only 50 rounds of pistol ammunition and 75 rounds of rifleammunition. In case of a Viet Cong attack on the village, mis was enough to last "about five minutes,"said Davidson. The group alsohad two World War II trucks, only one of which worked. The suppliesfinally arrived at the village more man a week later. These included more small arms, more than a ton ofdemolition equipment, and 450 gallons of gasoline for the trucks. Davidson said, however, that theammunition was old, and at least "one of every 50 rounds either misfired or didn't fire at all." Davidsonsaid he has seen several peace demonstrations in the United States. At a "peace" demonstration inNew Orleans where he saw the Viet Congbattle flag flown by the Tricontmental Progressive Students, he had re-reflected, "Maybe I am living in a nation that has lost its sanity." Davidson concluded by saying,"All I ask is that you (the American public) understand, support, and protect" the American troops inVietnam. "I am at least one for victory in Vietnam.

Read the Although 50 per cent of Fern-dale'sgraduates go on to college, the district also has students from the Lummi Indian reservation who areoften not highly motivated, Norris explained. Luppold, who is also state SWEA president, asked about Ferndale's large turnover of elementary teachers. Norris explained that while Ferndale is able to hirecapable teachers graduated from Western, they often stay only one or two years. This is becausemany are married, and the husband or wife attend college while the other works. Ferndale expects togrow, said Norris. Two large companies, Mobile Oil and Intalco, already provide two-thirds of thedistrict's economic base, and a subsidiary of the Great Northern Railway has purchased land for an industrial complex which would provide up to 5,000 new jobs.

SAH^MMjMjMi ---------- Western Front - 1968 February 27 - Page 4 ---------- 4 Western Front editorials Tuesday, February 27, 1968 . . . if there are going to be big dogs, there willbe little dogs to bark at them . . . â€”anonymous Letters to the Editor the clash register Horace Humbug went into a market, picked up a pound of ground beef marked 33 cents, brought it to the register and told the clerk he wanted to pay only 10 cents for it. "I'm sorry, sir, but i/'s marked 33 cents and thatisivhatyou should be charged," the clerk said. "Scoundrel" barked the enraged Horace. " / shall see themanager about your job!" Strange . . . the same thing happened in the Associated Students Legislaturelast week. But instead of the price of hamburger, the dispute was the college rule about full-timestudents participating in school activities. If the price for participation is unreasonable, then it shouldbe challenged in a mature fashion. But the Legislature's actions Wednesday in asking for Hitch-man'sresignation were childish. Legislators called their move "dramatic," but a temper tantrum is dramatic,too. And what does it accomplish? Consider these points: 1. Why did the two legislators remain on theboard when they knew they were violating college regulations? 2. Why didn't the speaker of theLegislature act when the ineligibility was brought to his attention three weeks ago? 3. Was there analternative for the Dean of Students when the Legislature stalled in handling this? 4. What is unfair about this part of the AS Constitution (Article I, Section 4, part d): "All Representatives must maintain thecollege's academic minimum standard grade point and be enrolled for a minimum of 12 credit hours eachquarter while in office"? ^Jeanne Doering don't shoot yet Many people are dissatisfied with the firstKlipsun Quarterly, and ,that includes the Klipsun staff, who are being blamed for work that isn't all theirs. Larry Adams, Klipsun photographer, said more than half the material for the magazine had been sent tothe printer by Jim Foltz before Foltz resigned as editor last month. Adams said no one else on staffknew what the layout looked like or if copy accompanied the pictures. Foltz also chose the photographs. The result: many examples of fuzzy pictures, pages without explanatory material or cutlines, and badgrammar in several write-ups. But don't shoot yet. The Klipsun staff are working on the winter edition,and say they will have it out within two days after spring vacation. Then they'll accept credit for theproduct, but not this time. Then we'll see if a magazine format can be successful. â€”J.D. Campus newsbriefs Merciful Mabel results Wilson Library Forgiveness Week resulted in redemption of 31 missingbooks and pardon of 689 fines, William H. 0. Scott, circulation director, reported last week. Finerevenue would have been about $350, had fines been charged^ Scott said. This is approximately equal to the value _of "missing" books returned during Forgiveness Week, he said. Eighteen of these bookshad been out since before the IBM checking system was installed. The other 13 were borrowed prior towinter quarter. A "Forgiveness Week" had not been held at the library in eight years, Scott said. Another grace project is improbable during "this student generation," he said.
