WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINGHAM, WASHINaTON Friday, May 29,1925 O U T OF NORMAL GIVEN NEXT WEEK Pictures, Dresses and Furniture from Classes to be Shown. TEA WILL BE SERVED Exhibits of the Art and Handicraft department, the Industrial Arts, the Home Economics and Manual Training departments will be held June the third and fourth, Wednesday and Thursday of next week. The design on the invitations was made by Edith Diarenger, a student of the Art department and are being colored by other students in that department. The Art and Handicraft exhibit will be held in rooms 302, 303, 304 and 305. I t will include primary, intermediate, rural, upper grade work, basketry, dress design and posters. This art work is under the supervision of Miss Druse, Mrs. Stuart, Miss Breakey and Miss Johnston. Tea will be served both afternoons from two to five o'clock. The tea table will be in charge of students. Some of the girls who wore costumes on the Normal School Float in the Tulip Parade, will appear at the exhibit in their costumes. The primary rooms are presenting a reproduction of a picture from Oizek exhibition which was in Seattle a short time ago. The picture was painted by a fifteen year old boy. It is very colorful and full of rythm. Elementary Industrial Arts Elementary Industrial Arts studies under supervision of Miss Sunther will be shown in room twenty-nine. This exhibit will consist of the studies made of the industrial processes appropriate for use in the primary, intermediate and rural groups. There will be coiled and molded pottery, book binding, paper making, type casting, color printing, pap« er making, types of shelter, play furniture and furnished doll houses, also food and clothing studios. These activities, materials and processes approximate those used in the industrial world, but the purpose of the handiwork is not to make for the finished product, but rather to build up knowledges, appreciation and interests in the industrial processes. Home Economics \ Nutrition posters will be on display in room three, training school problems and textile exhibit will also be in room three. Blouses, jumpers, dresses, coats and remodeling garments of the dressmaking department will be exhibited in room five.

FAMILY LIFE COMEDY IS GIVEN BY CLUB Commencement Week To Be Enlivened by "The Potters." On the evenings of June the 8th and 9th, the Drama Club will stage "The Potters" in the Normal auditorium at 8:15 o'clock. J. P. McEvoy, the author of the play, is in every sense a realist. He is the dramatic story teller who has been longed for in the American literature. "The Potters," one of the best comedies ever written, is an exact reproduction of the common American home, its life and everything that goes on in it. At once pathetic and humorous is Pa Potter, who is nagged at by Ma, but who is always the hero at home when lie tells it at the office. Ma Potter is very officious and is continually harping at Pa about the Rankins, who are a neighboring family. Bill Potter is exceedingly typical of the age in which we are now living. Mamie Potter is up to the minute in slang and style and is in every sense a daughter of today. Red Miller, Mamie's suitor, is a college athlete type, and is an ex-life guard. He plays a prominent part in the comedy. Mr. Rankin is in business with Pa, but is far too shrewd for that gentleman, Mrs. Rankin is about the same age as Ma and is thoroughly an "up-to-date" mother. The comedy promises to delight its audience. The cast for "The Potters" is madeup of: HALL TO HOLD DANCE Clever Favors Will Add to Festive Spring Affair. Invitations are out for the big spring • informal; to be given by the girls of Edens Hall in the Edens Hall reception room tomorrow night at eight o'clock. I t is planned to make this dance one : of the nicest of the season. Clever favors and decorations will add to the success of the affair. Good music has been provided; )' Miss Headrick and Mr. Buddy are to bei patrons. ; Jerry Windes and her committees have : been working' hard and promise a very •'i delightful affair.

Recreation for the summer quarter promises to be interesting as well as diversified. * Altho the real schedule is not- yet outlined it will be organized under one day trips, week end trips and every day recreation. The one day trips will include trips to Lake Samish, the State Park, and Lake Padden as-well as other places of interest. The week end trips which Jiave been so much enjoyed other quarters will again, include a trip to Mt. Baker, one of the famous mountains of the state and Northwest. Other trips will be taken to Helitrope Ridge and Austin Pass. A short walk will be taken every Tuesday evening to such places as Sehpme Hill, Whatcom Falls Park and Chuckanut Mountain. Play-hour on the campus and various Jaoat trips are other features to. be enjoyed. } The committee in charge are organized with; Mr. Kolstad as president, together with the following\able and Enthusiastic members;;! Miss-jWeythineh, Miss, ;Rbsine gt; Mr.;:';Kibbe,|^ ^ e n s TEAM WINS B I B B S Ti Hannah Takes Normal Singles Championship of State. In two fast singles matches Hannah won the/Tri- N o r m a l singles championship \ o f the'State of Washington. At the close of the tournam e n t, due to Beliingham losing the doubles, Cheney and Beliingham were a tie. In order to decide the tie, the Vikings challenged Cheney doubles to play off the even score. Cheney refused to play a doubles match but consented to let a Ed Hannah singles set determine the Trl-Normal tennis supremacy. Despite the fact that Reeder, Cheney's singles player was comparatively fresh, while Hannah, Bellingham's choice, had already played five successive hard fought sets, Hannah, through sheer nerve and grit, fought an uphill battle to win 3-6, 6-3, 8-6. He collapsed after the final match was over, due to nervous strain and physical exhaustion. For he had succeeded in playing eight hard sets without time for proper rest to recover. Win Minor College Championship. The winning of the final match gave the Beliingham Normal the Tri-Normal State Tennis Championship, and also the Minor College Tennis Championship. In Hannah's first singles match, against Bowman, of Cheney, Hannah dropped the first set, 4-6, but came back and won through heady playing and dexterous chopping, the last two sets and the match 4-6, 6-3, 6-4. Both players showed a great deal of skill and head work. (Continued on Page Four) o BOOKS NOT LOANED Library Will Remain Open Until the Eighth of June.

ALL-SCHML PICNIC TO BEJjELD JUNE 6 Annual Get-together at Normalstad Is Being Planned. Plans are rapidly being made for the all-s"chool picnic to be held lt;June 6 at Normalstad, on Lake Whatcom. This event will be used to do further work on the Normalstad grounds in the way of clearing and piling underbrush and rubbish. Everyone going will leave Beliingham at eight-thirty or nine o'clock in the morning, either by going on the Lake Whatcom car or by taking a brisk morning hike. Each person is to furnish his* own lunch, but coffee will be served free at noon. .While the morning will be spent in hard work, the afternoon will be given over to all kinds of fun and many attractive features, among which will be rowing, games and boat racing. Don Marquis, president of the Students' Association, will appoint a committee to look after details. . A good, jolly time is assured and the trip is sure to please everyone. MISS WILSON LEAVES Librarian Leaves for Study Tour in Europe. Miss Wilson is leaving Beliingham this week to start on a tour of study' in Europe during the summer. She will sail June 6 to be gone about three and a half months. Miss Wilson is going with a small crowd who will have as their motif the study of libraries and literature. Their chief centers of study will be England, Rome and Paris. Then they will visit Holland, Belgium, Switzerland, Germany, and most, of the large cities of Southern Europe. On her*return to the United States in the fall, Miss Wilson intends to spend about ten days in New York City, studying school libraries and library courses before returning to Beliingham. 6,000 Copies of Spring Supplement Circulated Beliingham Normal School is getting its annual boost from the Mesesnger in the form of the Spring Supplement printed with last week's paper.

The outcome of the Tri-Normal Baseball, Tennis and Track Meets rested to a considerable extent upon the inspiration furnished by these men in their respective sports; without this, the result would have undoubtedly fallen below the sandards which we have held for Viking teams. ^ "While we are extending our praise and congratulations to the individual members of our championship teams who have delivered so well, we will also remember the splendid work of these three men. —Coach Davis. TIME FOR ELECTIONS. Next week will be given over to term papers, note-books and politics—mostly politics. Petitions for candidacy will appear, mushroom-like, on our bulletin board. Favorite sons (or daughters) will replenish their stock of Smith Brothers, and plots and counter plots should permeate the atmosphere. Seriously, tho, now is the time to put up a candidate for the Board of Control, NOT the day of the election. An equal chance is given to all candidates to be placed on the official ballot with the okeh of the scholarship committee. This means that the candidate's grades have been looked up to see if he is eligible to office. That this is more than a mere matter of form has been proved by the number of students who have been declared ineligible in past elections. Student Opinion The Student Body has at last had a chance to observe the many cups won by the Normal in various activities. What we want now is a trophy case, where our hard earned prizes could be constantly on display. Nothing could show better what we have accomplished. For the first time this year the students The Board of Control of the Student Body consists of fiye student representatives ' besides the two faculty members. As long as these representatives are chosen from the student body as a whole have been able to see the cup which has it is up to us, the students, to see that been with the institution for 22 years, a fair representation is made on the without having to hunt all over the Board. Matters which call for serious so hard for? -M. B. (ANNA HANSEN) A booklet containing poems, fables and nonesense rhymes was being made up by the fourth graders which is to contain their best work'together with an illustration in each section by the author contributing the best verse.- A similar book made, last year indicated that this original little book was well worth while in its interpretation of the child's own thought and ability. Trips to the- bulb farm, sawmill, coal mine and Sehome hill had been taken in connection with. industrial arts and the pupils were . brimful of knowledge from geology of the soil to erosion of the valleys. Inventions of all kinds were displayed by the fifth graders during the Assembly hour which was in their charge. Miniature steam engines, electrical engines, sail boats, electric generators and batteries, charts and sewing machines were on display. Talks were given on the different inventors and inventions, some of which were illustrated by means of a stere-optican slides which the children operated by themselves. Part of the topics taken up were Edison and his inventions: steam engines of different types and their use which was demonstrated; and also electric engines, one of which was used to lift a load up to the table. Eelegraphy in connection with slides and a demonstration of the Morse code in which the S. O. S. call was given, proved unusually interesting. Give Explanations. In talking with the children after-wadr one need have no doubt but what they thoroughly knew their subject which they had worked up as a class project for they were able to give names and inventions and explanations of their work as though it were some happy game. A trip to the Whatcom Dairy plant in which they had ridden in a specia. car, held a great deal of interest in the sixth grade and the knowledge they had gained is well explained in the following story as one of the pupils told it. "We went on the trip in a special cai as part of our work in hygiene. We found that milk is first tested for butter fat by being placed in little glass tubes, which are whirled about rapidly in a little machine. Then the milk is pasteurized which is heating it to 140 degrees to purify it. The milk is then placed into bottles by means of a tub* so thta no impurities can get into it after which it is sealed up. Louis Pas-tuer was the first person to discover that heating milk to this temperature would kill disease germs. "The machinery used to make butter wa slike great large barrels which were run bl electric machinery. When the cream was churned they took buttei from different parts and tested it make sure that it was pure. After we had watched the different machinery working, Mr. Eddy gave us all an ice cream cone and then we went back tc school." Another child told how they had given Friday Assembly Given Over to ; Musical Club. ; A delightful program was presented in the Assembly last Friday, by the Mac- Dowell Club, a musical club organized for studying music and becoming better acquainted with musical artists. , Those participating in the program were: The girls' Double Quartette, singing several songs; An Instrumental trio, consisting of Don Marquis, John Monroe, and Chauncey Griffith; Clare Mendenhall, who delighted his audience with vocal solos, and Violet Holstein, who played the violin. Lowe Bartruff, a former student of the Bellingham Normal, who has for the past year been attending Whitman College, completed the program with several piano solos. o BE SURE TO PARTTeipAflf IN OUR GREAT UNDERSELLING EVJJNT IN EFFECT ALL NEXT WEEK MONTAGUE MCHUGH gt;ING.

And if any wish to cancel their reservations that may also be done. • . o FACULTY FORUM ELECTS OFFICERS AT MEETING This year, for the first time, the University of Washington Frosh teams have been met in every major branch of sport. Two games were played in basketball. The Normal team won on its home floor and lost to the Frosh in Seattle. In the games between the two Normal Schools, Cheney won the championship with four games won and none lost; Bellingham Normal placed second with two victories over Ellensburg. In addition, two games were won from Seattle College, one from St. Martins, and one from University of British Columbia.

Besides all this, Frykman, pitching ace of the Normal team, registered 6 strikeouts, and allowed four scratch hits. Only two Cheney players reached second base. In three times at bat Frykman got a single and a double. Davis, Viking shortstop, was teasily •the fielding star of the day. Ball after ball was knocked into his territory and each chance was handled perfectly. In the second inning, with Okerlund on third, Davis placed a bunt along the third base line .scoring Okerlund and reaching first safely himself. Leach, the big first base man, also took some hard chances and made them look easy, digging two low throws out of the dirt and puliing down a couple of high ones. Nelson Best for Losers. Maury Nelson, the big catcher for the losers, played the best ball for Cheney, getting a single and a double in three times at bat. Burpee, who was supposed to drive all opposing pitchers to the showers, knocked two easy rollers to Leach, struck out once and got a single to right field. Liefer ,and Walker batted out singles for Cheney's other two hits. Simonton, who was sent in by Coach Eustis in the ninth inning to pinch hit failed to report to Umpire Lewis, and was called out after the first ball was pitched. Thus ended Cheney's only chance for a rally. WARD PRIGG, Star Dash Man. DIAMONDS WATCH*! CLOCKS JEWELRY MANUFACTURING, REPAIRIAG R. H. LEACH Manufacturing Jewelers 1334 Cornwall Are.

WCLUB HI-SCHOOL ATHLETES Letter Sent to Prospects Normal Teams. for year this PRIGG HIGH POINT MAN AT TRI-NORMAL MEET Ward Prigg, high point man, with thirteen points to his credit, carried off the individual honors in the Tri-Normal meet last Saturday on Rodeo Field at Ellensburg. Prigg took first place in the 100-yard dash and the 220-yard dash, besides placing second in the 440- yard run. The fact that the hundred yard dash immediately followed the 440- yard run made the winning of it a real task. In the 100-yard dash Prigg got off to a poor start running in third place at the fifty-yard mark. With a story book finish he passed both Graham and Simon-ton at the seventy-five yard mark and In order. that the next athletic shall, not roll around and find school, short of athletes, Coach Davis, at yesterday's meeting of the Big W Clulf'*asked each member to submit a list of the high school men whom they think will be interested in Bellingham Normal. Each man whose name is submitted will receive a letter from the W Club, setting forth the opportunities and advantages of this school. With a large percentage of the twenty- two men who made letters in football returning next fall and the same thing true in both basketball and track, Bellingham Normal promises to have an even more successful year than the one just past. When the track season ended the year just past and the Tri-Normal championship was in the fold, an indirect compliment was paid to Coach Davis and leaped into the tape a winner by scant t h e t r a c k g q u ad inches. When the season started only two let- The 220-yard clash was a repetition of the 100-yard event, except that the real race was between the two Viking sprinters, Graham and Prigg. These two men raced down the straight away neck and neck. Prigg winning by about a one-foot margin in 22.6 seconds. The century dash was Avon in 10.2. Both of these races would have been run in record time on a hard surface track. termen were on hand from a team that last year lost the Tri-Normal championship by one point. The fact that the Vikings are track champions this season may be laid to two things—hard work and' conscientious training. Any team that wins a triangular meet in which nine records were broken must be in top condition and form. Box Score: Normal— AB H R E Graham Leach Wingard Staggs Kure ..... Hyde ...

Li gt;^-Tu^;/:i ••';.;;• The Viking track and baseball teams haye suffered considerably from the loss of, Eddie Wingard, coast javelin king and pitcher of some repute. Wingard was injured at the U. of W. Frosh meet when in winning the, javelin he pulled a muscle in his elbow, an injury which is not infrequent with javelin hurlers. Although his arm was still in bad shape he was determined to throw at the; Tri-Normal. meet since the * record was only 149 feet 8 inches and his record was 192 feet 10 inches, which he made at the University of Southern California. Wingard threw once at Ellensburg but the injury was too painful and he was unable to continue. Olympic Prospect. Early in 1924 Eddie was preparing for the Olympics, but he suffered a brake-down and was unable to compete. If he continues to sling the javelin as he has in the past he will no doubt make the 1928 Olympic team. The loss of Wingard weakened the baseball squad as he is a dependable pitcher. He won two games for the Normal prior to his injury, the Seattle College and the U. of W. Frosh games. He was a member of,the pitching staff of the University of Southern California's b;iseball team when he attended there. It is hoped that his injured arm will soon be better. W. A. A. PLANS HIKE Mt. Constitution To Be Scaled Tomorrow. Nine records were smashed in the Tri-Normal track meet, Saturday, at Ellensburg. Bartsch broke the mile record and Algyer broke the record in the half-mile by two seconds. Bengen raised the high jump record three-quarters of an inch. The other events in which new marks were set are the four-forty, discus, javelin, broad jump, pole vault and relay. J-O Plans are now completed for the W. A. A. hike up Mt. Constitution tomorrow, May 30. The boat will leave the Quackenbush dock at.7 a. m., sharp, reaching Olga at about 10. Everyone going is assured a good time and an interesting trip. The boat fare will be one dollar, round trip. o — KOLSTAD IS TIMEKEEPER AL HARTLEY and DUTCH WILDER Having coals of fire heaped on their respective heads after turning up the editor. Mr. Kolstad spent last week-end on a trip to Ellensburg and other cities. He boarded a train for Ellensburg Friday evening and arrived there Saturday morning in time to wake the boys who had gone over for the baseball game, tennis tournament and track meet. In the afternoon he acted as Bellingham's official score keeper for the track meet. He returned to Bellingham Monday morning. Miss Skalley and Miss Frank went to the track meet at Ellensburg, last week-end. While there, they visited on Friday the Ararious departments and were especially interested in the health education work carried on there. The same day they witnessed the Children's Play Day at the training school.

Orcas Island was the scene of the Rural Lifers* outing Saturday. Twenty- ' two, including visitors, left Quackenbush dock at five-thirty in the morning with beaming countenances and soaring spir- ; The voyage was pleasant, the only mishap being a rib broken by one of the engines. This caused a- delay of half an hour but the- party arrived safely at Oiga by ten o'clock. ' A kindling place was located where the eats were left in charge of a few of the most trust wotrhy. The rest climbed Mt. Constittuion, returning in time for dinner on the beach. After dinner they embarked for home to the tune of Irving French's harmonica with a more or less melodious accompaniment. Some interesting reminiscences are Lauren Bostwick's blister on his heel, Moid Van Etten's soulless boots, and Louis York's barnyard. :—o A./A. U. W. American Association of University Women took a cruise around some of . the San Juan Islands, Saturday. They started at 10 o'clock~in the morning, and returned at dusk, having had a delightful and interesting trip. o Social Science Club Meeting. At the meteing of the Social Science Club last week, Mr. Bever gave a talk on "The Dependents of Bellingham and their Treatment." At yesterday's meeting Mrs. ~G. LRoth spoke on the "History of Bellingham," I t was decided to continue having club meetings during the summer, to be in the form of current event discussions. The regular club work will be taken up again in the fall. o PERSONALS FETES AND DATES Inasmuch as most of the staff stayed in school and worked on the school sneak day, a special picnic has been suggested for the members. This little holiday will probably be just enough to give the staff a second.wind to last them until the end of the quarter. —-. o ;• Benny Mitchell became honorary member of the Y. W.

Competent judges have predicted a brilliant future for the talented young dramatic soprano. She has received most of her operatic training in Italy and it is in this field that her best work is expected, as her voice has a clarity and carrying power which will be heard to its best advantage in grand opera and with full orchestral accompaniment. Her program was made up of arias from Italian opera and old Italian airs, with two groups of English ballads. The auditorium was comfortably filled and the enthusiastic reception accorded both the singer and her accompanist, Bernice Judson, also a former Normal student, was evidence of the affection two a day of cadet teaching. -o This Sunday, Miss Headrick was in Seattle.

All this took them as far as Inspiration Ponit, which finally inspired them to return home. This idea was followed up and they arrived at the "home of color and light" just before it was plunged into darkness. Billie Howe says that she likes Chevrolet coupes. That's strange. o A tub full of water was sent gaily on its way down the fire escape Wednesday night from the third floor in Edens Hall.

He also gave the commencement address at Friday-Harbor, Friday, May 22. Mr. Marquis received a most hearty reception. He was entertained afterward at a senior banquet. Last year he gave the address for Friday Harbor seniors. o Miss McKinnon entertained in honor of Miss Buchholz on Thursday evening. Miss Buchholz is leaving for the summer quarter to attend school at Berkeley. o ; Miss Buchholz, who is secretary to President Fisher, is leaving her work here today, and about June 12 will leave for Berkeley," where she will attend the University of California through the summer and also next year. Miss Buchholz's place in the office will be occupied by Miss Merle Wolfe, who is a graduate of the University of Washington. At a recent assembly the associated students of Cheney Normal .presented a silver loving cup to the student body io be used each quarter as a scholarship award. The cup will be awarded each quarter as soon as the scholarship ratings have been ascertained. It will always be given for achievement in scholarship and for that quarter it will be in the keeping of the winning group. President Shpwalter, in his*'presentation speech said: "I am sure everyone knows what scholarship means. Three things to have in mind are good sportsmanship, good fellowship, and good scholarship. "It is a serious thing for a student with the mental capacity and ability of 80 or 90 to get a grade of 60. On the other hand, if the student's capacity is 60 and he gets 59 he has done well. The serious thing in scholarship is that so many fail to get the recognition that they could earn, and their scholarship is lower than it would be if they would work." Hannah Beats Ellensburg. In Hannah's second match, playing Frank 'Stowell, of Ellensburg, he again faced a strong opponent, but the Bellingham star was not to be denied and once more he swept to victory, aided considerably by the execution of his strong serve. The score was 6-2, 6-4 in this match. The Vikings expressed appreciation to the Ellensburg students who were watching the. tennis tournament for the good sportsmanship they showed in the Bellingham against Ellensburg matches. Even though Ellensburg was losing, the students demonstrated that they could lose in just as sportsmanlike a manner as they could win. Broadbent and FitzGerald Win. The Belilngham doubles team, FitzGer-ald and Broadbent, won their doubles match from Ellensburg's fast team, to the score of. 6-4, 6-4. It was a fast and hard fought match and both teams played a superior quality of tennis. But the brilliant crisscross and all around team play as demonstrated by FitzGerald and Broadbent, took the Ellensbrug 'champs to defeat. Broadbent's flashy work at the net and FitzGerald's tricky service played the opposing team off their feet. " The men playing on the Ellensburg doubles team were Black and S. Stowell. The Ellensburg team showed a fast GIVEN TO CIVIC CLUBS Staff Members Pass Papers Weekly Luncheons.

' ' ••• With conditions like this, an animal is a fool to go out and slave all day for a living. We used to have a mouse running around here in the office, but he was reading the paper one day and happened to read about these: tests. He immediately packed his suitcase, borrowed trainfare from us, and started for Cornell. He was no fool. the work, as I understand it, is not hard. All the cats have to do is walk around on table tops and push open doors that lead to dishes of milk. The worst that can happen to a rat is to have some Cornell professor yodel in his ear and then take his pulse. It is reported that the common alley cat has a higher I.Q. than his fellow cats. They have one named Miss Mildred that will unlock three combination lacks and throw a latch to get at her milk. HORRORSCOPE . . . We received in the mail this morning a copy of "Dr. Killer's Almanac and Garden Book for 1940," distributed through the courtesy of the Killer Kidney Kube Kompany of Kalamazoo, Ken-tuckey. The hororscope for the week coming so intrigued us that we couldn't resist passing it on to you. Monday, April 15—The zodiac-says, "Don't look down the barrel of loaded firearms, and stay away from Greek restaurants." Taesday, April 16—This is a screecher. You'd better pull down the blinds and go back to bed for the day. Wednesday, April 17—Let's not talk about this one. Thursday, April 18—Stay away from big heavy alphabetized dictionaries and literature classes. Friday, April 19—"Let's go to the show." Saturday, April 20—We're emerging from the evil inflnence of Taurus the Bull and things look rosy for next week. Go out and buy a little stock of Anaconda Copper. Sunday, April 21—Lift nothing heavier than the funnies, and be careful getting out of bed. Karel Aboltin,SeattleViolinist Former Bellingham Student Speaking jerkily and by clipped sentences, Karel Aboltin, Seattle violinist, seemed perfectly willing to talk abous nimself and his wdrk. Aboltin, short, dark, and powerfully-built, is a former -pupil-of the Lowell school.in Bellingham. Immediately after his performance he planned a brief call on Mr. Pierron, principal of the school, whom he numbers among his many friends here. His popularity among the home folks was demonstrated by the crowd which gathered around him after his concert. Since leaving Bellingham he has studied under Fritz Schmidt, at Riverside, California, and under Otto Sevcik. Mr. Aboltin, who devotes his entire time to his music, has one hobby which he claims is of considerable aid to him in his work. This hobby, weight-lifting, has developed his physique immensely, add though some people show suprise at this, he says that his peculiar hobby has developed the co-ordination and flexibility required of the violinist. Plashing his contagious smile he said, "Swing? A little, yes, but not too much! When I get tired or blue I turn on the radio and listen to some of the hottest jazz I can find. But I soon get tired of it; then take it away!" He denied any knowledge of dancing skill, but in this he was contradicted by his agent, Mr. R. W. Houser, who said, "You ought to see him do his hot little Russian number. It puts any swing to shame!" After leaving WWC, Mr. Aboltin planned to call on several friends, then return to Seattle and more music. VOL.

Soukup Chosen By Board Clarence Soukup was chosen to head the summer Collegian at a Publication board meeting held last Monday in room 204. Soukup, a graduate of last year, now teaching at Avon, will serve in the combined - capacity of manager and editor during the summer session while studying for his degree. Also discussed at the meeting was the authorization of Stewart Mc- Leod, business manager of the Collegian, to make a consumer census. The object of the census is to submit questions to students and faculty members relating to money expenditure, which will serve as a basis for ad soliciting. At a meeting held yesterday morning questions were submitted for approval by McLeod. - Charles Kilbourne also submitted a preliminary dummy of the student information booklet for comment by the board.

Cook's presentation will consist of the story of air transportation in America in the form of natural color motion pictures. Mr. Cook, who was one of the youngest commissioned flying officers in active service during the World war, has since continued to explore the airways of the globe and keep up with the developments in aviation. ."America Plies" is the newest program that the "Flying Explorer" has made available to the American people.

C Ruckmick, Industial Arts instructor, will give an illustrated , lecture on the Indian life of the Southwest, Friday evening at 7:30 in the college auditorium. Mr. Ruckmick recently completed his second trip to the Indian country, which affords many opportunities for colored picture photography, his main objective being to study the crafts and living conditions of the Indians. There is a government school in the Indian country through which he contacted craftsmen and obtained assistance. He has secured many interesting and unique pictures, one of them being a picture of the historical Canyon de Chelly, where Kit Carson rounded up the last of the Navajo bands and took them captives in the latter sixties. Proceeds will go to further the development of the promotion of the Baker lake boy's camp, which is operated jointly by Kiwanis Y's Men's club and the YMCA. ASB tickets will admit WWC students to the lecture. Journalists Given Rare Opportunity; Scribner's Offers Staff Position Offering rewards for budding journalistic geniuses, the Scrib-ner magazine has inaugurated a prize article for college students. Open to all undergraduate students in American colleges the cjt litest is nation-wide in its scope. A Job With Scribner's Commentator A job with Scribner's Commentator will give the winner of first prize a chance to work (with regular salary) on the staff of a nationally known magazine, for a period from June to October, or longer if the prize winner does not have to return to college in the fall. Eighteen additional prizes, all cash, complete the remainder of the prizes. The second prize award is $200, the third prize winner will receive $50 and. the next sixteen best essays will be rer^ warded with $25 prizes. Anyone Eligible to Compete With Any Topic The Commentator is not interested in the old-fashioned essay. Hence the necessity of the requirement that articles submitted be of the type that are suitable for publication in Scribner's Commentator. By this is meant that the type of articles used regularly in Scribner's will give the contestant the best chance to win. Merely because one does not consider himself a specialist in English or a good writer is no reason for not competing. Many of the regular contributors to Scribner's Commentator are not writers by profession.

IT WILL BE GOOD, TOO One month from Monday and CAMPUS DAY will be a sweet memory. But between today and that months end there lies a great deal of toil for Rolf Jensen and his aides. The work of the student body is to put the necessary enthusiasm into preparations. There is no reason why May 14 shouldn't represent one of the better school events of oil time. NO GHOST CROWD WANTED May 19 marks the biggest date in WWC track history On that day the college is host to four companion WIC track squads in the first all-conference confab. Tr.-college events in the past have been attended rather poorly and it would be a sign of ingratitude if this coming attraction should play to a ghost crowd. Hear and Their By Gene Bremer WARNING "Won't you step into my Packard?" Said the Spider to the Ply. "It's the smoothest little number, And it climbs the hills in high. My technique's known as rather good, You really won't be cold." The little Fly was ph-so-shy, But he was very bold. So he wooed her and he won her, But for only half a ride. She chose to amble home alone, With conscience for a guide. V V . APPOINTMENTS Interest aroused at this time of year concerning chance for student placement prompted the following. What chance has one to secure a job in the teaching field? This is a hard question to answer, viewed from the economic angle. Statistics compiled by Mr. El-wick, state superintendent of certification, give the following information for the year 1937-38 (the last year available). Placement of new inexperienced teachers in the state of Washington (in percentage of the whole for elementary schools): Private Washington Teachers' Colleges ~ 19.6% WWC, Bellingham 24.5 CWC, Ellensburg -.18.7 EWC, Cheney 32.6 Over a period of the last ten years Cheney alone has maintained the percentage of new teachers which it places. CWC and WWC have lost to private Washington Teachers' colleges in their number of placements. However, such evidence as presented cannot be held as a reflection on the board or the quality of student which it produces. Other economic factors involved are: (1) fluctuations in the demand for student teachers within geographical areas supplied by each school, (2) the greater number of teacher college graduates in quest of placement, especially on the west coast.

But then, even as today, it appears that loudness rather than tone quality was the predominating requirement of a good trumpeter; hence, the players would often injure themselves in their efforts and burst a bloodvessel or something. Such a catastrophe happened to Herodorus — he blew and he blew, and finally he blew up. From then on, Socrates, sayeth: Thou who bloweth and bloweth eventually bloweth upeth. Moral: Sotto Voce.

Center of Home Market Phone 882 Students Evaluate Own Themes Student evaluation of class themes is one of the methods used by Dr. M F. Cederstrom in his Composition 41 class this quarter. After the themes are handed in, they are read aloud and each student writes down his or her comments and opinions of the essay on a mimeographed evaluation sheet. According to Dr. Cederstrom, the comments are exceedingly impartial, for they range all the way from poor to superior on the same theme. "I find it strange," commented Dr. Cederstrom, "that the evaluation given by the students is, in general, lower than mine."

It's j u s t a polite way of saying that the reign of Al Biggs, blonde and. lowly built associate editor and ex-sport head, is no more. The chubby little gent has relinquished the reins, and i t seems that it is my assignment to keep this corner's journalistic head above the water for the remainder of the quarter. It's going to be interesting to note what the result will be when Don ISomsdale, top-ranking man on the tennis squad, and Frank Shelton, last year's high school district singles champ, clash oirthe local courts. The Sedro-Woolley athlete has been doing considerable work in the timber topping trade under Carver and crew. However, he is expected to start burning the cement courts soon, and everyone is waiing for him to exchange swats with Lomsdale. The Viking veteran plays a steady game, wherein he attempts to drop the ball where his opponent ain't. He works his lobs and cuts very effectively, but the question is: can he return one of Shelton's steaming drives, which the bespectacled one is so reputed to have. No matter what result blooms from this bud, it can rest assured that the Viking net coach has a pair of capable tennisters to navigate the* Norse squad through the coming season. Talk of the Town '.

The lid was formally pried from the Intramural Softball league Monday evening, and it was Joe Moses' Ensign sweepers, who supplied the toast of the evening. They poled the yarn-stuffed apple in all directions to snow under the Edwards 15 to 2. Murray Healy had the. "eye ball" on the hapless Junkin followers from start to finish, and dropped them like so many flies: It's beginning to look like the janitors will have a big season: But the White Mice also served an ultimatum to the rest of the league Tuesday evening, when they blasted the offerings of "McCarthy" Lappenbusch for sixteen hits and as many runs. It was parade day for the Mice, who rattled off the hits as fast as the census taker can sling the questions. After such an outburst of scoring as displayed in the first two days of the season, it's going to be interesting to follow the contests that are on deck out on the softball green. Anything can happen, and many times does, so buy your bag of popcorn and bottle of soda pop, and come out and root for the boys.

Faculty members making the trip are Miss Virginia Hawke, Miss Ruth Weythman, Charles Lappenbusch, Sam Carver, and Loye McGee. Two main topics of discussion will be "Hygiene in the School/' and "Healthful School Living." Several panel discussions will include the subjects, "Physical Education: in College," and "Recreation of Col-i lege Students." McGee will present and demonstrate a new muscular skill test and several new games. Mice Pound Lappy In Lop-Sided Win Coach Chuck Lappenbusch went into mourning Tuesday night as the result of a 16 to 4 shellacking given his independents by Al Bigg's White Mice. The Independents started out strong in the second inning when they went on a scoring spree, bringing in four runs. From then on it was just White Mice scampering around and around the bases. Lappy apparently has a special knack for pleasing the fans. Two or three of his team put on a little acrobatic show, doing flips, somersaults, and juggling, the star of them all being "why" Walt Baker. As one member of Bigg's team quoted, "Baker was the best player we had." Results— R. H. White Mice 16 16 Independents 4 7 Webster and Lindsley; Lappenbusch and Denton.

Both teams started out slow in the first two innings, but Edwards rallied in the first of the third to get four hits, /bringing in two runs when "Iron Man" Healy blew up. The janitors then came up to bat in the last of the third and brought in eight runs. Both teams fought evenly back and forth the remaining four innings, with the Sweepers picking up two more runs.

Tennis Aspirants Pointing For Coming Net Meet With PLC Lomsdale And Shelton Battle For Top Place; Five Regulars Vie For Fourth and Fifth Spot Improving steadily since first turnouts', "Lappy's" net aspirants are developing into a promising aggregation that will see first contest action on Thursday of next week. PLQ will afford the competition in the first match of the season for the Viking racqueteers. The follow-: ing Saturday, the Blue and White racquet swingers will play hosts to an invading Ellensburg team. According to Lappenbusch, the Wildcat outfit will furnish some of the toughest competition of the season. With the addition of Frank Shelton and the improvement of Dick Fowler, the local tennis club looks promising. Shelton is battling Lomsdale for the top spot on the ladder and the two boys are so evenly matched that the No. 1 spot is as yet not definitely filled. Vic Mollan is rounding into form and will take care of the No. 3 position. The two remaining slots will be filled from the group composed of. Lyle Pettyjohn, Vaughn Weber, Don Weeks, Paul Glenn and Dick Fowler. These boys all play about the same brand of tennis and several matches between them are yet .to be played to pick the two PPPPP

Current issue of Time, compounding newsmagazine, contains four full page advertisements for alcoholic beverages. Only rival for space consumed was Time itself, squealing its newsreel for four pages of \ unreadable filler. Close third were life insurance companies. We suggest patronizing number three before heeding the leaders. —B.S.N.S.— Who was it felt assured we'd never go back to the old-fashioned saloon 'cause we're all having too much fun in the new ones? —B.S.N.S.— College Editors Discuss Affairs In Radio Talks National Broadcasting Company Presents Hour Program On Saturday Varsity Basketball Squad Washington Represented Speakers Show Modern Thought Trends by Students All set for niches in a quiet corner of the political boneyard after last week's elections are Gordon Richardson, shinered candidate for president; boss Louis Shaffer, "A broken laugh, a broken violin, A thousand broken dreams, And not a single regret." Footing the list is the author of this column and Julius Dornblut Jr., smirking commentator on political progress whose last week's election story was so conscientiously whitewashed by Editor Shenenberger. —B.S.N.S.— Thank Heaven, we've only got twenty-one Communists in school! » - B . S . F . S . - News that recreation will be had at Edens hall is most welcome. For the overworking student there is no surer way to avoid nervous strain than to play two or three games of chess a week. Even to the novice it is a most absorbing pastime. There is sure to be a protest from the downtrodden that " c e r t a in cliques" are monopolizing the time and the equipment, but no more wholly democratic step has been taken in many a moon. Next logical move by the board is to get that truck to take us all to Normalstad so we won't be able to use the play equipment at the dorm! —B.S.N.S.— Very beautiful last week was the campus after dark. The trees, caressed by fog-softened fight, displayed their dim symmetry for all to behold. Walks glistened luminously through the haze. Somberly throughtful shrubs /were evident only as blackness against the blackness of the shadows. The library, in a quiet mood, bulked black against the gray. It is well to keep in contact with the moods of the campus. Always tractable, it varies with every day, with every hour of each. —B.S.N.S.— And did YOU expect Dudley Crafts Watson to break out any minute with Pippa's "Cod's in His heaven; alFs right with the world"? —B.S.N.S.— August graybeards of the board quite characteristically have a banquet the first thing after taking over the control. Ellis Parker Butler once wrote a story which had a title aptly descriptive of the situa-j tion, but if we mentioned it here the ex-board-member editor would wash us out. —B.S.N.S.— "Fat black bucks in a wine barroom Pounding on a table with the handle of a broom . . . " Talks about international, national, and local affairs were given by editors of representative college newspapers over the National Broadcasting company Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock. The hook-up was made so that each speaker talked from his city. The broadcast lasted one hour. The first speaker, from Yale, told about the Yale Political union. In a poll taken there recently, the weight was on the conservative side, and decisively against Roosevelt. | "Why Did You Go To College?" was the subject of the Stanford speaker. The UCLA speaker said the red scare was ridiculous and that good teaching will do away with radicals of both extremes. The University of Washington speaker defended the "mass education" program used there. The liberal arts course is stressed rather than technical fields. The Michigan speaker contrasted the "rah rah" college of a few years ago with the awareness of life that is shown by present students. At William and Mary, the oldest college in the country, present-day affairs are vitally interesting to students. They feel that if war can be prevented until they are in the saddle, peace will be assured. Extreme socialistic and communistic government is less desirable than capitalistic, according to their editor. Other schools represented on the program, some by women, were Cornell, Vassar, Columbia, College of the City of New York, Chicago, Minnesota, Louisiana State, and Princeton.

As a humorist he has often been referred to as "The Oriental Mark Twain." o Art Department Shows Modern Textile Designs Designed by contemporary artists, a group of modern textiles has been on display in the art department for the past week. These textiles, selected by Dominica Mastalio from her studio in New York City, are being loaned to the school for an exhibit. Designs by such artists as Paul Poiret, Bruno Paul, Ruth Reeves, and Donald Desky are included in the group. A preview luncheon was held last Friday noon in the Club room at Skiing, hiking and a scavenger hunt are to be the pastimes of the members of the Viking staff who participate in the week-end party at Mount Baker. Although the party has been postponed several times, it will definitely take place this week, according to committee chair Fisher Reports Favorable Visit President Returns From Olympia; Local Legislators Agreed About Budget That Whatcom county legislators are united in their intention to look after Bellingham Normal's affairs was the opinion expressed by President C. H. Fisher, who returned last Friday night from a two-day stay at Olympia. "I met all members of the county delegation," Mr. Fisher said, "and as far as I am able to learn, they seem to favor the recommendations of Governor Clarence D. Martin with respect to the Normal school appropriation." The g o v e r n o r 's budget recommended $428,000 for school expenses for the biennium, and $218,000 for a building program. President Fisher said that it is uncertain how the governor's recommendations will fare. The first problem, he said, is to raise the revenue that will be required in addition to what the property tax will produce. On that the legislators are not as yet agreed, he learned. o- New Recreational Program Offered; To Open Tonight Facilities Made For Disciples Of Checkers, Chess, and tOher Parlor Games Board Members Desire Revision Of By-Laws New Officers and Representatives Attend First Meeting Of New Regime Bulletin To Be Posted Final Plans Laid For Board's Quarterly Social A charge of $1.25 will be made to cover the expense of food and transportation, which is in charge of Phil Campbell and Victor Dickinson.

There are also five card tables, two chess sets, two crib boards, regular playing cards, and pinochle cards, and three checker sets. Entertainment and equipment on Friday and Saturday will be under the supervision of faculty members but on other days students will act in this capacity. o "Passing the half-way mark, the actors in the play "Twelfth Night" are entering their parts particularly well," says Mr. Victor Hoppe, director of the play which has its premiere showing in four weeks,-, on March 7.

Students constitution was discussed, Wednesday, by the Board of Control at its first meeting under the new regime. President Gordon Millikan appointed a committe of five to revise the regulations. He also instructed Secretary Gordon Richardson to post a bulletin of the activities of the board. This step was taken in order that the students may keep in touch with the work done by their representatives. The board requested Joe Hager to confer with Coach Charles Lappenbusch and communicate with CPS concerning the Vikings' game with them next fall, it was decided to hire Johnny Miller's orchestra for tonight's rec hour, but to take no action on a quarter contract. The committee on the revision of the by-laws is headed by Miss Nora B. Cummins and consists of three members of the board, E. J. Arntzen, Mari de Gallier, and Louis Shaffer; also two from the school at large, Clyde Kendall and Miss Cummins. The need for such a committee was seen last spring quarter when the constitution was re-written. Louis Shaffer and Maxine Iddins reported on the recreation program which is to go into effect tonight. Plans for the winter quarter social of the board were completed with" each representative voicing his or her gustatory preference. o Club Will Discuss Gov't Philosophies Nancy Jane Smith, Louise Schulz E d e n s h a l 1 f o r t h e m e m b e r s of the Gordon Millikan. and Oscar s m r ' f a c " l t y and the students who are Directly following ---------- Northwest Viking - 1935 February 8 - Page 2 ---------- 'v-.-\'."

Almost without exception these young men and women expressed the convictions that cloistered campus life is a thing of the past and hat practically all students show keen interest in national and world affairs. . , . Special emphasis was laid on the Merest shown in ideas to further peace. Also therepudiated red scare was exploded, especially by editors of the Cal ifornia schools.

Orego mans PWA Artists Shine Watson Envisions Department Of Education By Julius Dornblut Jr. By Nelson Ault Glenn Hammon, the wolf of High street, is an Oregonian webfoot who never got webfooted from paddling in water. He hails from the badlands of northeastern Oregon, where j men are men and women are glad of it. A varsity football and baseball man, he also enjoys intramural basketball. Being a dark, handsome brute, it is rumored that there are several hearts at the dorm that go fluttering when he ambles into view. Speaking of sheer masculinity, try out the old bifocals on Leon Al-paugh. A Portland product, he holds varsity positions on the football and baseball teams besides being active in intramural activities. His spare time is taken up by a little blonde at the Dorm. We've heard rumors . . but we'd better skip it. Albany sends us Sheldon Stutz. One of the Viking basketball mainstays, his face is familiar to all hoop fans. He is rather an aloof young man who keeps pretty much to himself when not on the basketball floor. In spite of the fact that this is his second quarter at school, he is on the loose although several co-eds have cast their little snares. Jim Miller also hails from Albany. A smiling blonde giant, he shares equal honors with his friends from the south on the athletic field. Last' fall he distinguished himself by making all conference tackle on the local team; also has a reputation in local pugilistic circles. His pet passions are black sweaters and brunettes, so dye hard girls. Greatest achievement of the New Deal will be the work contributed by PWA artists, believes Dudley Crafts Watson. Some 10,000 paintings have been acquired by the federal government since the project was started a little over a year ago. Especially pleasing to the artist-lecturer of last Tuesday's assembly are the murals done by the younger men in California high schools. One suggestion voiced was that if mural-ists would quit aping Diego Riviera, do work more in keeping with their own ideals of beauty, contemporary American art would be much improved. America is the only large civilized nation which does not have a cabinet officer in charge of education. With the increasing emphasis on purposeful leisure time such a post will undoubtedly be created in the United States within the next few years, believes the artist-lecturer. With such a program, Mr. Watson feels certain that art in America will make rapid strides, give this country an equal footing with older, and heretofore more artistically prolific nations. Starting point of his career as a critic, traveler, and lecturer, was the position of art editor of the Red and Black, annual of Old South Town Division high school at Chicago, held by Mr. Watson in 1903. o Magazines On Parade Stories of wasteful spending by the government during the World War are familiar enough but an article in the February "American Mercury" by Marvin E. Bendiner entitled "Corruption in the World War" relates such amazing stories of graft, greed, and official blindness, stupidity, and collusion that one is entertained and appalled at the same time. The account is undoubtedly true and leaves one marvelling at the lethargy of the American public in allowing themselves to be duped and fleeced in such a shameless fashion: This article is one of a series of similar revelations called "Thieveries of the Republic". The "American Mercury," by the way, has, in my opinion, improved a great deal since the H. L. Mencken regime. Where it formerly crusaded against prohibition and the im-becillities of rural theologians it now seems to be devoted to more significant, but less amusing, matters. Wiliam Saroyan is a writer of short stories. His writing career has grown like a mushroom. Late last year a book of his stories appeared curiously entitled "The Daring Young Man on the Flying Trapeze and Other Stories". Despite much adverse criticism the book sold well and since then Mr. Saroyan has had stories printed in Scribner's, the North American Review, the American Spectator, Redbook, Story, and elsewhere. His success so far is unusual and surprising. ' The February 6 Nation contains an interesting symposium of sundry pronouncements from high German Nazis. The feature is entitled, "The Hitlerites on Hit-lerism" and is compiled by John Gunther. It reveals these Hitlerites as being stupid fools wholly unfit to be the offcials of an important country. A timely article is "That Promise of American Life" in the New Republic of February 8. The author is Charles A. Beard, the well-known historian. It is something that should be read by every thinking American whg may. be puzzled over the events of the day and the possibilities of the future.

According to the calendar seven games remain, five of which are slated for the home court. The squad entrained for Seattle today to meet the Seattle Pacific college quintet in a return tilt tonight. The Vikings defeated the Falcons two weeks ago on the Whatcom court, 43-35. Two Games Next Week Next week will bring two more home games to the Normal fans. Tuesday night the Norsemen meet the Seattle college team, which they have also previously defeated. Following this comes the tussle with the strong- U. of W. Frosh five. This game is scheduled to come off Friday, February 15, but Coach Charles Lappenbusch has been attempting to move it up one night, and hopes to be able to do so. Tough Game Expected The Vikings defeated the Frosh team at Seattle last Friday, 30-26, and Lappenbusch expects another determined battle from them in this return engagement. Following the Frosh tilt, the Vikings will rest a week until they meet the Yakima Junior college February 21 in another home affair.

Two home games says Coach Charles Lappenbusch. The Norsemen seem to be much more effective on a large floor and the size of the pavilion gave them a chance to get some good blocking done. Coach Lappenbusch's men, under his instructions, played conservatively and held on to the ball for long periods at a time. This type of play gave them a chance to work the ball under the basket and out-score the Husky Babes. will wind up the season, one with UBC the twenty-seventh and a return fracas with PLC March 1. through. The Vikings led most of the way and it was only in the closing- min utes of the last half that the Wildcats were able to gain a lead. Inability to make their foul shots cost the Vikings the game, as they made good only four throws out of twelve chances. Coach Leo Nicholson's squad exhibited a very fast passing attack centered around Sill, a Southpaw forward, and Sesby, the Wildcats' outstanding /guard. Their crisscross plays were so accurately performed that Viking guards had difficulty in breaking them up. Coach Chuck Lappenbusch's men, on the other hand, showed remarkable improvement in handling the ball over previous games here this year. With Stutz and Zambas the centers of the attack, several nice plays were turned in that resulted in scores. Harold Fitzer, Viking ace last year, showed that he has regained his shooting ability when he led the Norsemen in scoring" with six points, canning three field goals from difficult angles. Zambas Begins Scores Tony Zambas opened the scoring After leading by a one point margin at half time the Frosh withered under the Viking attack and lost 36-28 in an intramural game last Tuesday. Angel, who went wild in the first half to score Large Crowd Attends Smoker in Little Gym held to two foul shots in the sec ond period, but still had enough points to be high scorer. Radder was high for the losers with 8. I n the other game of the evening the Co-op was snowed under 34- 15 by the fast stepping Barton Hall team. Louie Severin and Pat Jacobson led the assault on the Co-op, scoring 13 and 10 points respectively. o Coach Lappenbusch praised the -work of the Freshmen's big center, Red Walters. He said the playing of Walters was probably the best on the floor. For the Vikings, Carver stood out in scoring and in defensive work. Fitzer, Dombroski, and Edwards looked good in the .contest.

'Neath the dazzling crystal ball reflecting gay and giddy patches of color during the moonlight waltzes, the fair ladies, and the boys, too, will forget all thoughts of mid-quarter exams and term papers and will enter into the spirit of the Penguin prom. The Crystal ballroom of the Leopold hotel will be the scene of all this merriment, and the, rhythm of Johnny Miller's Collegiate orchestra will tickle the toes of the fortunates who attend this ball of balls—where the ladies treat. It may sound like unrestrained enthusiasm, but even the punch that is to be served will be like the nectar of the gods—ummm! They say "A bird in the hand—" and so on—the programs are in the form of penguins—do you get the connection? Of course, several of our professors are rating invitations and programs, including President and Mrs. C. H. Fisher, Miss Florence Johnson, Miss Linda Countryman, Mr. and Mrs. Herbert E.

The last time that seven eclipses occurred in a single year was 1905, and the phenomenon will not recur until the year 2485. Five of the eclipses this year will be of the sun, and two of the moon? Half a century ago, Theodor Ritter von Oppolzer listed all the eclipses from the year 1207 B. C. to 2161 A. D. Only 48 of the years during this period have seven eclipses, and only 14 of them have the two moon, five sun combination.

Their chief hurdle: passing, modifying or rejecting Gov. Booth Gardner's budget proposals. The governor has written two alternative budgets. One would not impose any new taxesand would maintain current service and program levels. The other, which would reduce sales and othertaxes while imposing new taxes on business and professional services, would spend $448 million toimprove the state's basic, higher and early childhood education programs. About $10.4 million of thatmoney is earmarked for Western. "1 think there's going to be a heated battle over the governor's highereducation proposal," said Dan Wood, Associated Students vice president for External Affairs."But I think in the end K-12 and higher education are going to benefit from it." Don Cole, Western vicepresident for Business and Financial Affairs, said he, too, is optimistic. "One never knows what willhappen in a legislative session," he said, but Gardner's proposal has a good chance of survival becauseit's directly tied to education. "I think that makes the tax package much more attractive and salable,"Cole said. The problems will arise because of the, proposed tax increases. Most Democrats support theproposal, but Republicans typically reject any kind of tax increase. They don't, however, want to voteagainst an issue as popular as educational improvement. For that reason, some Republicans haveproposed to spend $9.8 million from the budget surplus at the end of this 1985- 87 biennium (instead ofraising taxes) for immediate faculty salary increases in the period's final six months. Doing so showsthat Republicans support higher education, but it includes no plan for how to finance faculty pay raises in the 1987-89 biennium. Wood predicted opponents of Gardner's plan will propose increases in theeducation budget without raising taxes, thus forcing Gardner to raise taxes to support Jther programs,such as health care and welfare, which tend to be less popular than education among legislators.Bellingham legislators Ann Anderson, Dennis Braddock and Pete Kremen could not be reached forcomment. Students, teachers and administrators throughout the state are combining forces to promoteGardner's proposal. Presidents of the University of Washington and Washington State University havecampaigned in Tacoma, Vancouver. Pasco and Spokane. Cole said Western administrators aresponsoring"a host of activities"to inform the community about the proposal and muster support for it.Several meetings with the public took place in December, and administrators met Friday withrepresentatives of the Fourth Corner Development Group to discuss the plan's economic impact on thisarea. Western students can attend a press conference in Olympia and meet one-on-one with legislatorsthrough "Descend Olympia." a trip scheduled for Feb. 6. Wood said he hopes to take at least 150students, but he'll find a way to take more if others are interested. Call the AS office at 676-3460 for more information. Restoration of the Old Main steps continues as Steve Crawford (left) and Mike Stone ofStone Construction in Bellingham check design plans. The project should be completed in March.University repairing Old Main, College Hall staircase hazards By Janet Murray staff reporter Two sets ofstairs on Western's campus are undergoing repairs after being closed during winter break becauseof possible safety hazards. Old Main's stairs should be finished sometime in March, and the stairsbehind College Hall from lot 13G temporarily were repaired and have been reopened while the Facilities Planning Department discusses a permanent solution. The stairs located on the central west sideof Old Main are more than 80 years old, and are being replaced because settling and weathering havemade the stairs a possible safety hazard. The university is paying Stone Construction $26,000 from itsminor capital improvement budget to replace the Old Main stairs, said Rick Benner, senior architect ofFacilities and Services. Western was required to use an outside contractor on competitive bidbecause the cost was above the $25,000 limit on in-house projects. Allen Gran, of universitymaintenance, said temporary repairs to the College Hall stairs included replacing the old support timber,which had rotted away after more than 20 years of use, with a new wood framework. The designdepartment of Facilities Planning is making a cost analysis of possible options for the long-term repairs, including setting up a steel support structure or replacing the entire stairway. Benner said permanentrepairs will begin as soon as the money is available, which he hopes will be in June. Reagan proposesfinancial aid cuts By J. Thomas Bauer staff reporter President Reagan's trillion-dollar budget threatensto make serious cuts in financial aid for college students. "I think we need to be alarmed, but notpanicked." said Western's Financial Aid Director Ron Martinez. The budget still must pass aDemocratically-controlled Congress. Martinez said this year's budget proposal by the president issimilar to what he has asked Congress for in previous years. The proposal recommends elimination ofall student aid programs except Pell grants and Guaranteed Student Loans. The budget also proposes rescinding money already allocated by last year's federal budget to financial aid programs for the1987-88 school year. "I'm virtually certain (Reagan's proposal) won't all go through." Martinez said."But at this point we don't know. The proposals are drastic." Martinez said the cuts can't be ignored."Every year (the president) has gotten a little bit of what he wanted. Any cut hurts. Even if you maintainthe status quo, you lose because of inflation." he said. In other financial aid news. Martinez said thefinancial aid office is considering restoring the practice of notifying by letter aid recipients who fall below12 credits. Students who are receiving aid and are taking only 6 to 11 credits are on a probationarystatus. In the past, students were notified by letter, but this year all students receiving aid were givena copy of the policy. "We thought that was sufficient; apparently not," Martinez, said. 1M iliiiliiiniiiiiiiiii |i|llllllll ijiliiiillii iiiiliiipiii lllilHlIllll ;llll||pAi|io|i llllillill IIIIPIIIIl ^llllSp'oirtst !§$l^M^:M. il§§| lHulIl^^^^S^^^P^|j§^^^^^^S^^|^^lI®^^| S i i ^ M ^ i ^ i ^ ^ ^ ^ l ^ ^ ^ ^ i l H ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^B^^^H^SI^^j^S^^^^SIMB^B^SSi^S! ^ K ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ i ^ l H ^ ^ ^ ^ i S i ^ ^ i i S S l i f P S I S^ i^SivW ?^|§irii^!i§J$?^n^ iviS^ort8 lt;c6rrimen^ ---------- Western Front - 1987 January 13 - Page 2 ---------- 2 WESTERN FRONT TUESDAY, JANUARY 13,1987 AS job openings The Associated Students isaccepting applications for the Veteran's Outreach Coordinator, Peace Resources Center AssistantCoordinator and a Production Manager for the AS Review.

Proposal hikes fines forparking illegally By Richard Parsons staff reporter A proposal by Western's Parking AdvisoryCommittee could increase some parking citations by as much as 300 percent. The two most frequentlyviolated parking regulations, parking without a permit and parking out of an assigned area, couldincrease from $3 to $10. The measure will be ready for final recommendation- at Wednesday'scommittee meeting. Parking Manager Dorothy Telles said she made the recommendation in hopes ofcurbing Western's illegal parking problem. Although no citation increases will be made this year, they could go into effect as soon as next fall. Associated Students President Terri Echelbarger, however,said increasing citations is not the answer. "It seems to me that Western has substantial parkingproblems, and our problem affects the city, too. Raising parking fines would make it less punitary topark off campus than on," Echelbarger said. Echelbarger, along with AS Vice President for ExternalAffairs Dan Wood, is fearful that students would park illegally off campus, creating problems for thecity. "(Telles) and I are at odds over the parking issue," Wood said. "If the proposal becomes official,then we're going to increase our problems with the city; that's something we don't need at this time." "Idon't think there was enough input from anybody (such as students and faculty), to solicit a fineincrease," Wood said. He said he plans to appeal the committee's decision. Also on the agenda forWednesday's meeting is a recommendation for a 10-percent parking permit fee increase for fall1987. The committee meets at 3 p.m. in the Physical Plant conference room. ® | J | i | | J j p c i a l s« f l l i B l l B i i k t t es |ll||||||fi|i;^i|;jh Bagels dal|||i||||| Authentic WaiitePJiEta^|eI|i|f L Breakfast •Lunch • Snacks I f IpRailroad Ave. ^ • 676-5288 Easy Writer Resume Writing and DesignLASER WRITER PRINTING Features: • Word Processing • Cover Letters • Reference Sheets• Individualized Service Professional Results Recommended by Acme Personnel Service 676-6271Mon.-Fri.9-5 1764 Iowa St. BellinQham's Natural Foods Grocery EVERYONE WELCOME Hours: Mon.— Sat. 9:30 - 7 p.m. Sun. 11 a.m. - 6 p.m. 1059N.

BoothGardner's 1987-89 budget proposal. The budget plan would raise $510 million, $200 million of which isearmarked for educational improvements. Western will receive an 11.9 percent increase—or $10.4million—in state funds if the plan passes as Gardner has proposed it. The remaining $310 million would go toward improving social and health services, community development and employment security. The governor's proposal includes a statewide increase of $12.1 million in student financial aid. It also wouldcreate an estimated 48 jobs at the university, bringing Western's employment level to 1,152. AWHALE OF A PLACE TO "SUDS YOUR DUDS" £ 1414 12th "Historic Fairhaven" 734-9647 LNEWLY REMODELED AND EXPANDED J The average Western professor's annual salary of about$40,500 would increase to about $50,700 in the next two years, with a total of $66.9 million spent onsalaries and wages at the university. The state has spent $59.6 million on pay at Western during thepast two years. Under Gardner's plan. Western's budget would increase 11.9 percent to $97.9 millionfrom the 1985-87 budget of $87.5 million. M ost of the new money would go toward faculty salaries, butplans for it include support for equipment and plant maintenance and minority recruitment andretention. Under Gardner's second, no-tax- increase budget proposal. Western would receive a mere 2-percent increase in funds—not enough to cover inflationary cost increases. The tax-increase budgetproposal works like this: If passed, Washington's sales tax will be reduced from 6.5 cents to 6 centson the dollar, the current 7- and 10-percent surtaxes on the business and occupation tax will beeliminated, and a statewide tax deferral will be enacted for manufacturing and research and developmentfirms. These tax cuts reduce state revenue by $717.6 million. Therefore, Gardner proposes to extendthe sales tax to most business, professional and consumer services, in addition to fees andcommissions of various financial institutions and brokers. Services of accountants, real-estate andinsurance agencies, lawyers, dentists, doctors, beauty shops, health spas and cable televisioncompanies all would be subject to the sales tax. This extended sales tax would generate $1.2 billion.Minus the $717.6 million reduction brought on by the above tax cuts, total state revenue from thechanges would be $510 million.

Western student vies for Miss USA By AndyPerdue i'cl i lor Western student Jennifer Doerflinger will represent Washington in the Miss USApageant. I t's probably difficult for mostof us to imagine 70 million sets of eyes intently watching eachmove we make. it's difficult for Western student Jennifer Doerflinger to imagine, too, but that will be hersituation Feb. 17 in Albuquerque. New Mexico as the Washington state representative to the Miss USAcontest. "That I'm going to be there is overwhelming." she said about the pageant that will be televisedworldwide. The Miss USA pageant, which began in 1952, is different than the Miss America pageant.Miss USA continues on to the Miss Universe contest, while the Miss America pageant is final. The Miss USA runner-up will represent the United States at the Miss World contest. The two contests also differin that the Miss USA pageant is based upon personality and public speaking ability, not talent, it alsohas bathing suit and evening gown competitions, as well as personal interviews and on-stageinterviews. The roads to the two contests also differ. To get to the Miss USA contest, Doerflinger had toenter the Miss Washington contest, which meant being accepted, then finding a business to sponsorher. The winner continues on to the Miss USA contest. A different Miss Washington contest iscomprised of state regional pageant winners, and that winner continues on to the Miss Americacontest. Doerflinger, 23, earned her spot at the Miss USA pageant by winning the Miss Washingtonpageant, Nov. 24 over 40 other contestants. Forthat she won about $20,000 in cash and prizes, plus theuse of a car for a year. But that is little compared to what she'll receive if selected as Miss USA:$200,000 in cash and prizes, use of plush apartments and tours of the United States. The runner-upreceives about $5,000, and all the contestants receive gifts. Doerflinger said she doesn't care so muchabout the prizes, but emphasized "a need to be a positive influence on people who 1 meet." she said.Miss USA has had that effect on her as a role model. She always wanted to enter contests andpageants, but was very shy when she was young. However, she said she didn't want to regret thingsshe never tried, so at age 19 she began entering beaut}' pageants. "It takes a lot of work." she said.She won Miss Washington on her third try. finishing in the top 12 her first time, and third runner-up hersecond time. Doerflinger, a political science major, will miss school until her Miss Washington reign ends next fall. With her degree, she plans to pursue a broadcasting career as a news reporter or anchor.Already she has completed internships at KOMO and K1RO television stations in Seattle. Since the endof fall quarter Doerflinger has been preparing for her departure to the pageant. This means gathering herwardrobe, practicing walking, turning, speaking and dancing, and staying informed about current events.Though she feels pressured, departing Jan. 24 with her 10 suitcases, she has a lot of support from lastyear's Miss Washington, her director/coach and family, but "my dad is more nervous than I am." About20 friends and family members will be at the contest to cheer for her. Doerflinger looks forward to theopportunity to participate and make new friends at the pageant, but she isn't ruling out the possibility that she might win. "I'm keeping a positive outlook," she said. The state of Washington has a pretty goodrecord at the pageant, too. Miss Washington was the winner in 1968. the runner-up in 1979 and finished in the top 10 in 1984. If Doerflinger does win, the Miss Washington runner-up will continue Doerflinger'sMiss Washington duties. Otherwise, she'll spend her year representing the state while visiting nursinghomes and charities and taking part in such activities as mall openings and festivals. The contest isscheduled to air at 9 p.m. Feb. 17 on CBS (channel 7).

That's the plan of a Parking AdvisoryCommittee proposal up for final recommendation at Wednesday's committee meeting. Although theproposal's planners have good intentions, simply increasing the citation by 300 percent is like putting aBand-aid on a herpes lesion and calling the disease cured. Last year, 26,105 citations were issued atWestern for parking without a proper permit. Meanwhile, Western's enrollment was 8,885 students, full-time, part-time and graduate. That means about three times as many citations were issued as therewere students. Is there a message here? Yes, there is. Although 16 percent of the citations were issued to out-of-the-area drivers, the remaining 84 percent were not. Something is wrong when each Westernstudent, many of whom do not own a car, averages almost three tickets a year. That something is notthat students are cavalierly opting to risk getting a cheap $3 parking citation instead of parkingelsewhere. The problem is there often is nowhere else to park. The proposal also could force students topark illegally off-campus, creating problems for the City of Bellingham. Granted, Western's'fine hasn'tbeen increased since 1980, when it increased $2, and today it is lower than fines for the same violation at other colleges in the state. According to a survey parking administrator Dorothy Telles conducted,Washington State University fines students $15, Eastern Washington University $9, the University ofWashington $5, and the Evergreen State College $5. While a higher fine may be deemed necessary todiscourage illegal parking, a $7 increase is unduly harsh when considering the lack of adequateparking facilities at Western, a problem no increase can solve. Well, there it is • Shish-kebab frenzy.In a land where drunkeness is considered a disease running rampant, six drunken Soviet crop-dustersrecently died for their hunger for lamb shish kebabs, the Russian newspaper Vozdushny Transportrecently reported. The six died in a plane crash after their hunger led them to illegally take off in a biplane in a quest for sheep. A seventh sheep-seeker reportedly survived. Meanwhile, experiments in Polandshow many drinkers would rather buy vodka than life's essentials, according to The Seattle Times. Be itbetween vodka or baby booties, vodka is the more likely buy. With all this drunkeness abound, MikhailGorbachev, a reported teetotaler, recently ordered an extensive anti-drinking campaign, which includedcuts in alcohol production and increases in alcohol prices of up to 50 percent. This should make thesheep of the Soviet Union feel a little safer.

Morespecifically, something happened to the cable company that provides a signal to off-campus and on-campus television sets. The federal government has deregulated the cable industry. If you live off-campus and have received your bill from the cable company, you know how this affects you—you owean additional $6 a month. That extra $6 a month, however, is not just burning a hole in the cablecompany's corporate pocket. No, it provides additional channels for your entertainment and education. The following is a list of some of the new channels available. • Channel 6, American MovieClassics—When this channel is showing a movie, the movies usually are ones that no one went to seewhen they first came out in 1943. ). THOMAS BAUER copy chief • Channel 12, C-SPAN—C-SPAN provides coverage of the U.S. Congress. Occasionally, a representative will give a speech to an emptyfloor. No one is in the audience, and no one is watching this channel. Did you vote for this person? •Channel 15, Cable Value Network—Imagine a channel devoted to the selling of merchandise, such as "this beautiful, real, simulated, diamelle cocktail ring with matching pendant, earrings, brooch,necklace and bracelet for $19.95." • Channel 16, Christian Broadcast Network—When the "700Club" isn't on, CBN shows sitcoms from the 1950s, when America's values were nuclear families andnuclear power and Joe McCarthy and Charlie McCarthy. • Channel 17, WTBS—This is Ted Turner'sbaby. Along with Atlanta Braves baseball and Atlanta Hawks basketball, which Ted refers to as"America's Teams,"you can watch "The New Leave It To Beaver." Gee Ted, why ja go a-nd do a goofy thing like that. • Channel 18, MTV — Apparently, MTV believes heavy metal and music are one andthe same thing. MTV also has hired Dweezil and Moon Unit Zappa as "veejays." Frank Zappa is reallyproud of his kids. You were warned about the effects of drugs, Frank. • Channels 19, 22 and 24—These are the Arts and Entertainment, Discovery, Educational and Nickelodeon channels. The onlydifference between these and PBS is these three don't have fund-raising drives every two weeks.Networks refused ad TV should sell safety, not sex Television engages in unsafe intercourse. The threemajor networks (NBC, CBS and ABC) recently refused to sell advertising time to a prophylactic firmselling safety instead of sex. The networks have maintained long-standing policies against sellingadvertising space for condoms and other forms of birth control. Meanwhile, they continue to programentertainment that uses sex to gain viewers. Unfortunately, the sex-baiting networks are ignoring thecontent of the prophylactic firm's proposed advertisements: safety. The idea of educating peopleabout safe sexual practices in a television commerical is rare. Actually promoting sexual responsibilityis unheard of in the network world where Romping, Adventure, Intrigue and Lust (otherwise know asRAIL) are accepted and practiced with disregard for viewers and the responsibilities they face whenhaving sex. The networks' RAIL system of BILL FREEBERG staff reporter programming lures viewers in many ways. Couples romp under downy-white sheets and share tokes on a cigarette after the bigbang. Macho men and their distressed maidens gun down nasties and sweatily embrace, later tomake love under moonlight. Alexis blasts Blake and celebrates with a trick. Men lust after women and vice versa. Viewers are RAIL-roaded with irresponsible sexual practices, but they aren't told how to be safe with sex. When television constantly pushes sex at people through advertising,, movies andprime-time shows, while refusing to educate people about sexual safety through condom advertising,it is doing a disservice to its viewers. This negligent practice of not informing people of the dangers ofsexually transmitted diseases is appalling. Ansell International Ltd. of Australia, like other prophylactic firms, is not limited to the business of birth control. With the rise of Acquired Immune DeficiencySyndrome, herpes and other sexually transmitted diseases, it took a bold step and devised acommercial telling people to use Lifestyles condoms to prevent the spread of sexually transmitteddiseases. The burden of responsibility lies with the networks. Since they use sex in progamming to gain viewers, they also are responsible for informing people of the dangers inherent in sexual conduct. Thenetworks should reconsider their refusal. They would not be promoting sex by advertisingprophylactics, only sexual safety and responsibility. People will have sex whether condoms areadvertised or not. Using a condom makes sex safer. Better safe than sorry with herpes. Better safethan dead from AIDS. Don't be RAIL-roaded. ---------- Western Front - 1987 January 13 - Page 7 ---------- TUESDAY, JANUARY 13, 1987 WESTERN FRONT 7 Parking permits too expensive The Front: Thisletter concerns itself primarily with the parking inequalities inflicted upon Bir-nam Wood residents.Birnam Wood residents are forced to pay $85 for the privilege of parking in or near the same area inwhich they live. Now while exclusive parking rights should cost more than the open P-lots, these rightsalone do not warrant a $50 increase in parking fees. If fair value were received for value given, this raise in price would be accepted. Fair value, however, is not being received. The Birnam Wood resident receives no more attention or special consideration than a P-lot permit holder. Security is essentially theconcern of most Birnam Wood residents. To my knowledge there were four cars vandalized in afour-stall area last quarter alone. I submit to you that this is unacceptable. I admit in fairness that thereis the occasional campus police car cruising by, but the far more common sight of a meter-maidtaking lunches en masse in the Birnam Wood parking lot galls me. A little more security and a littleless ticketing would seem to be in order. The second point 1 wish to raise is parking rights. The $85 C-lot permit is not permitted in a $35 P-lot space. When this is brought to the attention of parking officeofficials, they glibly say that "this is because P-lots are oversold and additional cars from C-lots wouldoverload the parking lots." While 1 would not presume to be able to solve all of the enormous problemsfacing the parkingsituationat Western, in one short letter, I can ask why no one bothered to take intoaccount the glaringly obvious problems a Birnam Wood parking lot would create at the time it wasbuilt. In conclusion, I would state that the parking officials have too long charged the residents of Birnam Wood exorbitant fees for the privilege of having very limited privileges. Mike Martinez, secretary, Birnam Wood Tenants Council Mystery writer is questioned The Front: I recently received some Christianliterature in a large, white envelope with no return address.

Terri Echelbarger Associated Students 'president Football player on the defense The Front:Although most readers will not recall an article published in the Dec. 5 edition of The Front entitled"Coach not the answer," I have been unable to forget it. 1 had planned to write an extensive letter tothe editor pointing out the numerous half-truths, mis-truths and un-truths that staff reporter Brad Fridellhad chosen to include in this article; however, I now find that the holidays have managed to curtail myanger. I will let it suffice to say that I believe The Front should be embarrassed to print the title "staffreporter" under Mr. FridelPs name, not for his opinions, but for his lack of responsible reporting. I alsowould like to point out a few "facts" that I am sure the majority of Western's students are unaware of.• Western's football team is the only team in the 14-team Columbia Football League (CFL) that doesnot have assistant coaches on staff or faculty. • Of the 14 teams in the CFL, only Eastern Oregonand Western do not give talent grants (Eastern Oregon did not win a game in 1986). • Western isthe only school of the 10 teams in Washington playing at the National Association of IntercollegiateAthletics level of competition or higher that does not give supplemental aid. While I will be among thefirst to admit that Coach Hansen does not epitomize perfection in a head coach, 1 truly believe he hasimproved dramatically each year he has been here at Western. I personally have played on nationallyranked teams at both the high school and collegiate level. Speaking from this experience, I believe the coaching staff and players here at Western have the ability to take the league title in 1987. So students, faculty and staff at Western, why not show your football team (and its coach) a little support for once?Jav Adams ML Baker Planned Parenthood QU6SWNS OFTEN ASKCP ABOUT StMAUTY t MH%MKtattew ) • confidentiality • pregnancy testing • birth control • • services • 734-9095 500Grand Ave. Bellingham s«V ALL THE PIZZA AND SOFT DRINK YOU CARE TO EAT JUST $ 3 . 99 Join us every Monday and Tuesday evening from 5-8 p.m. We're serving up all the pizza and soft drinkyou care to eat.

Not so for the Western men's basketball team. In fact, during a December jaunt through California that included games with Pac-10 teams University ofSouthern California and Stanford University, it was the Vikings who were served on a platter, medium-rare. But to Western Coach Brad Jackson, the California trip sent the team's confidence skyrocketing. With Saturday night's 74-64 victory against Alaska Pacific, the Vikings, now 11-5 fortheseason, areon a five-game winning streak. Western's longest since the 1978-79 season. Western's 11 victoriesmatch last year's season total. "We grew in California," Jackson said. "The players came back with theconfidence that they could play with anybody." But not until they experienced some serious face jobsagainst use. "In the first half against 'SC,' the guys went up for a shot and began to expect to get thatshot blocked," Jackson said: The resulting 42-19 deficit at halftime prompted a locker room tirade byJackson. Western outscored the Trojans in the second half on the way to a respectable 71-57 final.Dale Harris led Western with 13 points and eight rebounds. In La Mirada, Calif., the Vikings lost a 76-70 decision to National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics District 3 power Biola, a team thatJackson said "will probably represent its district in the national tournament, and we went toe to toewith them." After a breather against Northwest (Kirkland) College (102-74), Western flew to Palo Alto,Calif., where the Cardinal handed the Vikings an 83-61 defeat. Despite returning from Californiawinless, Jackson is encouraged by the experience. "Against USC and Stanford, we were beaten, but we weren't ripped," he said. "Ourguys knew they were playing against some outstanding athletes, but they know they can play a little bit, too." Since the Stanford loss, the Vikings have reeled off wins againstSeattle Pacific University (100-89), University of British Columbia (78-56), University of Puget Sound (73-50), Seattle University (90-71) and Alaska Center Garth Stroyan adds another offensive rebound to hisgame average of three against Alaska Pacific University Saturday night. Western beat the Pioneers 74-64. Pacific University (74-64). gets some steals on the press. He's at his best there." Harris also has beena constant for the Vikings, leading the team in scoring and providing a steadying influence.

One factor in the team's recent success is the emergence of Marcus Buren. Buren, whoexudes more confidence every time out, set a school record by nailing all 12 attempts from the fieldagainst SPU. He scored 26 for the game. Buren also grabbed 12 rebounds against UBC, a startlingstatistic, considering he stands a mere 5-foot-9. "Marcus has worked hard to get some confidence in his offense," Jackson said of the perky, creative point guard. "He's good in the open court and Men'sbasketball to host Whitworth, 7:30 p.m. Thursday. "Night after night. Dale gets us 17-18 points a game, plays great defense and pounds the boards for us." Jackson said. Jackson also lauded JamesJohnson, a 6-6 junior forward who oozes athletic ability from every pore. "James is learning the physicalnature of the game," Jackson said. "He's learning to push himself when he's tired and to work throughproblems he may have during a game." Guard Scott Fincher has come off the bench to contributequality minutes, especially on offense, and recently made 30 straight free throws, a streak snappedagainst SU. Overall, Jackson is pleased with the progress the team has shown with sightly more, thanhalf the season finished, but he remains cautious. "The next month is especially going to be tough,"Jackson said. After Thursday's 7:30 p.m. home game against Whitworth. Western will play 7:30 p.m.Saturday in Carver Gym against arch-rival Central.

The game willbe the second meeting of the two clubs this season. On Nov. 25, the Vikings rallied from a halftimedeficit to Women's basketball take a 68-59 victory from the Lutes. "We escaped with a win," saidCommentary . .. Ball boys bash 'bleeping' blues Move over, books, bottle and baby cakes. The "big blue" is red hot this season, bloating Carver Gym with unexpected excitement. The men's basketball teamis winning. That's right, fun fans, in a span of two weeks the men hoopsters ran a five-game winningstreak, the first since 1979. Scott Fincher snapped a school record with 30 straight free throws, andMarcus Buren tied a record of 13 consecutive field goals. I'm not going to lecture the student bodyabout attending basketball games. It would just trigger the student zone-out response typical of red-eyed book mongers. Instead. I will let others lecture the student body. "So." 1 ask a boppy fan sitting in thestands, "what do you think about Western's 3-0 record in DAVID CUILLIER sports editor league and11-5 overall?" "Like, these hunks are totally rad, man! The way James Johnson slam dunks the littlebrown ball makes me float to, like, the moon, man." Moving on toward the players' bench, 1 stopped totalk to the opposing coach. "Excuse me sir, how are you handling Western's full-court pressure andthree-point shooting?" I ask. "That damn Dickerson hits those (bleeping) three-point shots when wealmost get the little (bleep)!" he said. Other people responded with enthusiasm, saying basketballgames are inexpensive ways to meet people, watch swoosh action and get rowdy. "Where else can youmake derogatory statements on a person's intimate relations with a female sibling?" one fan crooned. Refs are abused people. The basketball team, however, is not abused this year. Coach Brad Jacksontook over to crank out 11 wins so far, equal to the amount of wins last year's team scraped up. Westernstill has 15 games left. One of those games is against Whitworth College at 7:30 p.m. Thursday inCarver Gym. Whitworth was 3-28 last year. In the words of others, forget your rad siblings and go tothe (bleeping) game for a (bleeping) good time. Western coach Lynda Goodrich. "The keys for us werereal good defense in the second half, and the fact we out-rebounded them." PLU's greatest asset isheight. The Lutes start a pair of 6-foot-2 twins, center Kristy Korn, and forward Kerry Korn. Rounding out the lineup are three 5-foot-10 players. "Given how close the last one was, we expect it to be a closegame again," Goodrich said. "The two guards are their key." Including a 52-55 loss Saturday atSeattle University, the Vikings' record is 7-5. A major factor in the team's winning record has been soliddefense. Western is allowingjust under 56 points a game, which ranks in the top 10 nationally in theNational Association of Intercollegiate Athletics. "Defensively, we've gotten better every game,"Goodrich said. "Our hustle and intensity have carried us through." The Vikings are young, with fivesophomores and three freshmen on their twelve-player roster. Leadership has come from three seniors,center Kelli Kuiken, forward Kris Keltner and guard Anya Aardahl. Kuiken leads the team in scoring(15.3 points per game), Keltner is second in scoring (13.9) and first in rebounding (6.2), and Aardahlleads the team in steals (2.5) and assists (4.8).

IS W8S m^0^^^fi^^$M^?$^^^MMf^^MM^^^^^^M Police hold surplus of recovered Unclaimed bikes will be donated tolocal non-profit organizations By Ina Smith staff reporter Mountain bikes and 10-speeds are reportedstolen almost everyday at Western. It is such a common problem that many students assume thesituation is hopeless. For a change, there is actually some good news for bike owners. Campus policerecovered 10 bikes during the past few months, and the bikes are just waiting to be claimed. "I'd surelike to get them back to their owners," Lt. Chuck Page of the campus police said. Page said these bikes were found abandoned in various places on campus. The bikes . were just dumped after someonewent joyriding. Most of the bikes are still in prime condition. It has been difficult for campus police totrack down the owners because police reports were never filed, Page said. Page said some studentsassume filing a report is a waste of time, and this may be why there is a surplus of recovered bikes.Other bike owners said they would report a bike theft. "I would go to campus police if my bike werestolen," senior Dennis Thompson said. Another problem is most students neglect to register their bikewith police before a theft occurs, Page said. Serial numbers make the search much easier for police. "I'd say that about 50 percent of people don't even know the serial number OJI their bike," Page said. "Itpays to register your bike." "I know the serial number on my bike, but it isn't registered," freshmanCharity Curley said. Curley said she took her bike home late last quarter. When it was here she kept it in her dorm room because she didn't think the bike rack outside Higginson was secure enough. "I didn'twant my seat or tires to be stolen," Curley said. Page said if you register with campus police they placeyour serial number on file and pass the information to the Bellingham police department. "You don'tthink that you'll be a victim of a theft until you become a victim," Page said. It is evident many studentssubscribe to this philosophy. "I haven't really had a problem, there are times when I don't even lock mybike,"Thomp-son said. Photo by Tyler Anderson The campus police have 10 recovered bikes that can be claimed by owners, given serial number, and/or detailed description. Police site lack of registration aproblem in returning bikes to the proper owners. If your bike was stolen recently, the campus police could have it. In order to claim your bike contact Chuck Page between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. weekdays at 676-3555. Page said he needs the serial number of the bike, or at least a detailed description to release it tothe owner. Campus police said they will donate any unclaimed bicycles to a local non-profitorganization.

Themotion had been brought on by disputes over Israel's participation in Mideast peace talks. The votedoesn't alter much. Shamir has already agreed to call early elections. And he has the assured support of just less than half the 120 member Parliament. Europe prepares for common currency(LONDON)—Germans confuse it with a cow, no one can agree on how to say it, and German Chancellor Helmut Kohl doesn't even want it in his pocket.

Nissan may restrict sales in U.S. (TOKYO)—Thepresidentof Japan's second-biggest car maker says his company wants to avoidwhat he calls an"overpresence" in the U.S. market. That's seen as a sign that Nissan may be willing torestrict sales in the United States. Yutaka Kume says any "overpresence" of Japanese cars in theAmerican market should be reduced, but he says there's no "clear-cut yardstick" for deciding anappropriate level. The trade imbalance in cars and car parts has been a source of friction between thetwo countries. Japanese automakers have more than a 30 percent share of the American market. Arespected business journal, meanwhile, reports that the government is pushing Japan's largestautomaker, Toyota, to cut its exports. Both the company and the government deny that.

John Miles Serving as dean for the last sevenyears, Miles is resigning to complete research for a book he will be writing on the history of the NationalParks and Conservation Association. After taking a year off to complete the project, he will resume as afaculty member at Huxley College. The association, which contacted Miles to write a book on its history, will celebrate its 75 th anniversary in 1994. Miles, who hopes to have the book completed by theanniversary year, said there will be a number of themes explored in the story of the organization. Onetheme will focus on how national park lands have been continuously threatened since they were created. "One category of threat, for instance, was the proposal of additional units to the National ParkSystem, which were really not appropriate in terms of the criteria for naturalness and beauty," Milessaid. "In the early days of the association, members worked with the National Park Service to define exactly what constituted an appropriate national park," he continued. "This idea has been expandingthrough the whole 75 year period." At Huxley college, Miles has taught classes on the subject of hisresearch, conservation history. He also teaches environmental education classes and serves as anadvisor for' these students. One of the first members of the Huxley faculty, Miles has made majorcontributions to establish an environmental education program. Since Miles has been dean, thecollege has developed cooperative programs with the departments of political science, economics, andjournalism. Discussions are now under way with the sociology and educational curriculums. Thegraduate program has also increased from three to 40 students. "It's been my goal in this job to try to build bridges to other units of the university and to develop these programs. But I don't take credit forany of these things by myself. I've helped the faculty pursue their own ideas," Miles said. Thedevelopment of these programs has helped give Huxley College a good reputation around the nation. Faculty members from the University of Northern Iowa and University of Nevada at Las Vegas havecome to examine the program at Huxley in the past year. "We've been around for 20years and achieveda fair degree of success," Miles said. "Because we've been one of the long standing environmentalstudies programs in the field, we've been looked at by other schools as a model." . Research throughHuxley College has also made a lot of progress during Miles' seven years as dean. New facultymembers Wayne Landis, Jack Hardy and Robin Matthews have increased the level and amount ofscientific research conducted. Miles said it is the graduate students who have really helped raise thelevel of research at Huxley because they are all required to do field work. •:;;:g:::::;AW::i:thfopgh'vRenee Martens said she was unable due to the cataracts problem she has sragi©edim:;he^^§§||]§as|5^ |dis^]^§s^ lege."Martens said she wants to work § w i ^ !toi;hfel£:them^t3en£jef;|:;;:||||f^ |§§§|j$ii$^ wM^y^W^i^^^^^y^f^M yc^sebfhCT |3fid:j;her^ ; xyQlunt^recl timeatWh^cc^Co^ty! idfcli^ Ijljeir-Q^; §|§§§25om^^ ;;:oy^$cftjk:;^mseiyes bebaiise-^y'r^ lathing;;tiakes more e^tt 9^)^ iiyouisj^ ?^?|cii^:S;|iTOe month- yacatiion ;and abilities : Martens- said she hopesthe ;^ogpitiori\yestern receives from her yVirihing Mainstream's award last year, will let more disabledstudents at Westein be^me agt;yare : pf it.

"As dean he hasextended Huxley around the United States, where it is recognized as a quality program in environmentalscience, graduating reputable research scientists," Schwartz said. As an environmental educator andspokesman, Miles has many responsibilities other than Huxley College. Miles chairs the board of theNorth Cascades Institute, an organization dedicated to wilderness and environmental education. Hewas appointed by Gov. Booth Gardner to the Washington Environmental 2010 Advisory Committeeand the Washington Forest Practices Board. He is also a member of the National Parks andConservation Association and is an Executive Editor of "The Journal of Environmental Education." "I 'mvery fortunate to be involved in the work I do, as a faculty member and an administrator," Miles said. "Ithink what we're trying to do at Huxley is really important. I really think that education for the next century is going to have to involve an element of environmental education." Sheryl Morgenstern, anenvironmental education major, speaks highly of Miles. "He's a great leader who is doing his best tomake a difference in the world. He's been doing all these projects because he really cares and wants tobe involved. Without him, Huxley's environmental education program wouldn't be nearly as enrichedeither. " Lynn Robbins, a Huxley faculty member, said Miles has done a lot at Huxley to extend theinstitution off campus. "It's hard to measure his influence at Huxley College," he said. "More agencies and corporations have gotten to know Huxley." A search committee has been formed to find a new dean for Huxley College. The committee is chaired by Ken Hoover of the political science department andincludes students and faculty from Huxley College. ; Mo.i^at-Saturday 7 J.n. to i p.m. Sunday I i.m. to i pjn. wwu senior industrial design exhibition of faucets and mini-desks old main registration centerJanuary 27-31 9am-4pm ---------- Western Front - 1992 January 28 - Page 4 ---------- 4 The Western Front NEWS January 28,1 "^M Western site for Regional Archives development By RoyleJohnson staff reporter Construction of the new Washington State Regional Archives facility atWestern has moved into high gear. The building, located at the corner of Bill MacDonald Parkway and25th Street—across from Buchanan Towers, will house records and documents for the Regional State Archives serving Whatcom, Skagit, Snohomish, Island, San Juan, Jefferson and Clallam counties. The$3.4 million structure is designed for the preservation and use of government and private historicalrecords. It will also house Western's archives — which contain student and administrative records, theCenter for Pacific Northwest Studies and the University Records Center and Archives. The structurewill triple the space now used by these programs. Students, attorneys, genealogists, historians, artists,writers, legislators and university faculty will all use the building which will hold up to 40,000 cubic feet of materials. Services provided will include records repair, photographic services, computerized accessto collections, academic training and community programs. Regional archivist Jim Moore said in apress release that the building will house "a unique mix of complimentary programs to serve a diversegroup of researchers." Director of the Archives and Records Management Program James Rhoads saidhe considers the new building a positive addition to West-em. "It will be a fine additional resource forthe graduate students," Rhoads said. James Scott, director of the Center for Pacific NorthwestStudies, said the building will open next November, three months behind schedule. Scott said therehave been fewer than anticipated preliminary construction problems, but does acknowledge that someproblems have developed. The Shape of Things to Come, an informational handout detailingconstruction problems, describes how unavoidable impacts to parking, bus service, and vehicular andpedestrian traffic are being minimized. According to the publication, which is widely available acrosscampus, on-street parking along 25th Street will be eliminated and traffic will be significantly impactedby street improvements. Pedestrians will encounter heavy congestion from contractor equipmentand the bus stop on 25th Street and Bill MacDonald Parkway may be relocated. ..

No longer is the Alumni Office located at Old Main 345. The office has moved intoanewly renovated house at 709 High St. But in the fall of 1990, the house wasn't intended to become the home-base for alumni. The house was purchased by the International Pacific University organization.Renovation had begun in the winter of 1991 for I.P.C., but the organization elected to move its basefurther south - to the warmer climate of California - said Chris Goldsmith, Alumni Office executive director. Jim Korski at space administration mentioned the possibility of opening an Alumni Office on Highstreet to Goldsmith. Albert Froderberg, vicepresident for external affairs and Korski then sold the idea toRoland De Lorme, provost. Pete Harris from the Physical Plant said the house and renovation cost "ashade under $120,000." Harris said it was a sizable amount, but the house had to be connected toWestern's telecommunications system (data-base and telephones), which crews had to run wiresunderground. "We had to convert from a house, wherepeople lived, into aoffice where people work,"Harris said. The house needed to pass fire codes, and a ramp was added for the physically disabled,Harris said. Goldsmith said the goal of the Alumni Office is "to reunite as many alumni and formerstudents with the university... just make contact with them, that's why we do alumni events." Mostalumni live in the Seattle area, but there are "regional coordinator's" for alumni in Washington, D.C.,North Carolina, Phoenix, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Juno, Alaska and Australia. Recent alumniactivities included renting the Seattle Aquarium and a harbor tour boat in Elliott Bay. Both events drewmore than 300 people. Goldsmith said alumni seem to have more-ties to their major, rather than theuniversity. He said their target this year is to have 5,000 dues paying members. President KennethMortimer had suggested alife-timemembershipplan for alumni that costs $500 for a single, $650 for acouple. Goldsmith said there are 175 lifetime members. Currently, it costs $25 for a single yearlymembership, and $40 for a couple. The Alumni Office has been inolved in: homecoming events, ascholarship fund, setting up annual gatherings by major, a finals week care package and birthday cakeprogram, and the publication of the quarterly newsletter, "Resume." Goldsmith said the 1991Homecoming, was "resurrected from the dead" for the first time since 1969. The Alumni Officeprovides six parking spaces to alumni in the alley behind the house. The spaces require a permit issuedby parking services. Are YOU interested in becoming a Lifestyle Advisor? Do you care about people?Oo you care about health?

You carry with you all my hope. But, my child, for you also do I mourn. There are people in the world that will assume thatyou're not different. They will assume you're like your parents. They will think you act just like your bestfriend. They will assume that you are like every other person of your ethnic group that they have ever met. They will treaty ou differently because of a series of assumptions that they developed long before theymet you, long before you were born. There are many kinds of discrimination. Some ways in which itoccurs are intentional and others are not. Racial discrimination that is intentional is easy to identify.Some purposeful and sometimes malicious ways it occurs are in physical threats or intimidation andverbal harassment, or jokes that slander a person or a culture. Other forms of racial or ethnicdiscrimination are more subtle, and some occur in the classroom. "The classroom needs to reflect thecultural diversity of the students that are in there," said David Muga, Ethnic Student Center coordinatorand program advisor. There are several kinds of discrimination in the classroom. The first of these isin the curriculum and the material to be studied, Muga said. Muga said a student of color notices veryquickly in most classes that g there is very little material that places any emphasis on things that are ofinterest to them. For example, he said, in the average literature class there are very few or no books thatdeal with authors in ethnic minorities and usually deal with issues f(^fftVH^^^ Anglo-saxon, Protestantview which ^ Please see Discrimination, page 7. '"m.^* ---------- Western Front - 1992 January 28 - Page 7 ---------- January 28,1992 FEATURES The Western Front 7 Discrimination, cont. from page 6 is only one amongmany cultural outlooks. Sociology professor Rick Bulcroft said that in his syllabus he had a portion for diversity. He said that he encourages all students, especially minorities and older students, to cometo his office with any problems or questions they might have, and he said he tries to be flexible.Michele George is a Native American student and a senior major- . ing in a self-designed Liberal Studies program called Ethnic Social and Political Issues. She described a literature class she hadexperienced discrimination in. The instructor indicated the literature she was reading was supposedto be a great piece by a great author, and she found it to be very racist. She said the instructor did notexplain the views during the time period and the way minorities were viewed then as he should have.George said she thought this lack of explanation enforced similarly prejudiced thought in today'ssociety. She said it was very hard for her to listen, discuss, and read literature about people likeherself and other people of color presented in a very one-sided, racist view. David Curley, a liberalstudies professor, said that he could not conceive of teaching his classes without discussing theenvironment in which the racism occurred. He said that in his classes explaining the circumstances is crucial. Muga said for Western to try to force instructors to improve the curriculum and add a moreculturally diverse outlook would be a sticky problem. It would infringe upon each teacher's academicfreedom to choose the content and design the nature of the course. He said that it would ruin the wholecontext for democratic dialogue. "There's a lot of instructors who are joining organizations that standup for academic freedom and freedom for what they can say in classes, and I think those are theprofessors that are really racist at heart and they mightnoteven admitit/'George said. "They feel that their standards and their way of thinking is ultimate and the only thing of value is Western thought. And it'sthose people that really need to be educated." George said these instructors need to realize that thereare other ways of thinking and looking at things. Bulcroft said he didn't know the people joining thesegroup and would be unable to say whether they were racist or not. "I think the approach that one has touse is to constantly keep pressure on teachers so they will become sensitized to the fact that thesemeans are out there, and we have to use our powers of persuasion," Muga said. George said she thinksWestern should force change, because it causes harm to ethnic diversity when it doesn't. H.C. Yi, anAsian student on campus in her sophomore year, said that she has not experienced any of what shewould consider racism toward herself while she has been on campus. She said that the only overtlyracist incident that she has heard about since she has been on campus was when there were somepeople hand- . ing out minority hate brochures in Red Square last quarter. Yi also said that she wouldlike more cultural studies required within the general university requirements. "I wish that there weremore classes offered that really reach more diverse issues, more of the Asian cul - tural studies, blackhistory studies," Yi said. "These courses, I think, would bring a lot of sensitivity to people that areignorant towards other cultures." Discrimination occurs in trying to use the student of color as arepresentative for their people, rather than a personal or professional view, or asking a student toexplain how their portion of the population would feel about a situation or event. Bulcroft said he had notasked a student of color to act as a representative for their population, but he had at times asked aminority student about their personal experiences in an attempt to achieve a more rounded view of anissue. George said she was singled out as a representative for her people in just about every class thatshe has taken. "It's like the instructor figures that they're just going to breeze right over the minoritysection or the Indian section unless they have a student in the class then they turn it all over tothem," George said. "They don't bother to try to learn themselves about what to teach, so it's up to us to say what our perspective is, and, of course, we're unable to do that because we can't speak for ourwhole race." "It's as if 'this person is Asian therefore they can be a spokesperson for their wholepopulation', and that places too much of a burden on a student and does not reflect the diversity inevery community," Muga said. Muga said that a lot of times other students will say something that isinsensitive to a student with the questions or the point that they may raise, and that may also be a formof discrimination. An instructor may also use the slang for minority that was common in the time periodunder discussion and even that may be painful to some students of color, Muga explained. Curley saidthat in his classes about the culture of India, the class system there and the conquering British usedvery harsh language about the minority or dominated culture, but it is essential to understanding theculture at the time.

She said people would be more sensitive to minority problems if there were more classesto help them become more culturally aware. Yi said that a lot of Asians don't really stand up forthemselves because they have a stereotype of being quiet and intelligent. This is another form ofdiscrimination: any behavior pattern that is expected because of a persons race, color, creed or ethnicbackground. This often leads to treating people differently based on those assumptions orexpectations. This often takes form in behaviors towards a person such as ignoring, keeping a physicaldistance, avoiding eye contact, patronizing, unusual encouragement and paying undue attention to aperson because of their ethnic group. A student of color may also feel very isolated as the only person of color in a classroom. Muga said this situation is a more generalized form of racism caused by a lack ofrecruitment of minorities by Western. Yi said that the percentage of minorities was very low on theWest^ ern campus. She described a class that she had recently of approximately 100people in theclass and there were only two minorities, including herself. "I've heard that there is an increase inminorities on campus this year over last year, and I haven't seen any difference," Yi said. George saidminorities purposely go other places besides Western because of the poor quality of programs forminorities. She said that Western is the only school in the state of Washington that does not have aNative American studies program. "I think that Western doesn't try to make students of color welcome here," George said. She also said there wasn't enough minority faculty on campus because a minorityapplicant might not feel that Western would be a place that would accept their way of thought orteaching style. Bulcroft said the Western faculty is changing rapidly. He said a lot more minorities are being hired, but not as part of a quota system. He said that Western is hiring ethnic minorities asthey are striving to get a better rounded view on all issues. "WWU is under-represented in its students of color in terms of population of color in Washington state," Muga said. Bulcroft said a major reasonwhy there is not a large percentage of minorities at Western is that there is not a large minoritypopulation in Whatcom, Skagit and Snohomish counties where most of Western's students originate."We are all recovering racists at best," Curley said. He included himself in with everyone else as hedescribed discrimination in terms of a recovering alcoholic working to improve his situation. ...

But the pursuitof recapturing theirheritage has included an emphasis on higher education, which is helping Native Americans gain a deeper perspective of the larger society and more importantly, a vehicle allowing their culture to beappreciated by all. Making Western a comfortable atmosphere to grow and learn is a goal for MicheleGeorge, a Native American and former Western student active in the AS students organization. NativeAmerican Student Union (N ASU). But she said her educational experience is received in more placesthan just the formal institutional education she got in college. "I see college education as a tool that is useful, but I know there are many ways to be educated," George said. "There are many knowledgeableand respectable people who have no formal education by this society's standards. I am using it as a toolto better understand how this society operates, so I can give our people a better understanding of it."One of the major problems George and other students see at Western is the lack of Native Americanart on campus. "I think this university should try to represent other cultures as much as possible and itdoesn't," she said. 'There is no Native American artwork on this campus. Native Americans in this region are known for carvings that stand outside." Art is essential to Native American social and religiousceremonies. For observers of such art, it can be a window into understanding their culture. ChrisSanchez, a member of the Kootenai tribe in Idaho and student at Whatcom Community College who isactive in NASU, said each piece of Native American art is created as a tool for education, expressing anidea. "Native art is symbolic. It's not just a drawing of something, but a story with a meaning greater than the art itself," he said. By displaying Native American art on campus George and Sanchez feel othercultures may come to better appreciate the significance of the art. The promotion of cultural diversity can help dispel stereotypes about Lummi Tribe Member Juanita Jefferson Photo by Cory Parris NativeAmericans. "Historically, people have believed the very naive idea that Native Americans were savageand unintelligent," George said. "But, if you study the art, you'll see how far advanced the carvings anddesigns are." Celebrating and educating people about the Native American culture is the focus of theNative Cultural Heritage Week in April. Sponsored by NASU, it includes activities ranging from traditional songs and dances to Indian fashion shows, to give people from other cultures an understanding ofNative American traditions. The annual Pow Wow in April also serves this purpose. One difficulty for non-Native Americans who are interested in Native American cultures is that a lot of Native history is notdocumented, said Juanita, Jefferson, a Lummi tribal member and Western graduate student. "Ourculture was an oral culture. Even to this day many of our elders do not want it documented in writing,"she said. "We've resisted putting it on paper for a long time because it's against our culture. But I thinkthere will be a change because that history is often being lost if it's not documented." "But there aremany American Indian writers across the United States who are gaining recognition," she continued."Large collections of their writings are showing up in bibliographies. And there are literature teach-North Garden Inn Elegant Bed Breakfast Accommodations Sumptuous, Scenic, Sensuous 1014N.Garden 671-7828 ers who are beginning to introduce these Indian writings to students." Establishing a curriculum that includes the history and literature of Native Americans is a good place to start, saidSharon Kinley, a Lummi tribal member and Western graduate student in anthropology. "I think anythingwould be an improvement because they have next to nothing," Kinley said. "I think an Indian point of view is not usually found in classrooms." Some faculty members and students said they're also interestedin making Western's educational curriculum reflect more perspectives from other cultures, includingNative Americans. John Purdy, an English professor who teaches classes on Native American literature, said there is a great deal of interest in the English, anthropology and history departments to develop aNative American Studies program at Western. He thinks there is a good chance a program will beestablished and students will be able to minor or possibly major in Native American Studies within thethe next two years. The development of new educational programs and art on campus can helprecognize Native Americans as an independent culture with tradition and heritage as partof theculturalunderstanding necessary for a diversified university and society.

He, she, he or she, or s/he? AsWestern makes a commitment to addressing diversity at this institution, new questions arise about the correctness of the language used to discuss different elements of that diversity. Yet some argue thatthe focus on a "politically correct" language is at worst a dubious, and at best, only the first steptowards achieving diversity. David Muga, coordinator of the Ethnic Student Center, said he feels thatpeople should be sensitive about the language they use, but he also feels that placing emphasis onpolitically correct language allows people to avoid addressing bigger issues, such as poverty,injustice, lack of adequate income and medical care, homelessness, and so on. "I see (politicallycorrect language) as alabel that's being imposed on me to discuss questions that need moreventilation," Muga said. "Politically correct is not only not addressing (the questions), but derailing any attempt to recognize (the questions)." Muga said his use of any specific label to describe anindividual or group of people would depend on the situation, and also on how the individual or groupwished to be identified. He said it is important to remain aware of how people refer to themselves.However, discussing what is politically correct language, is the privilege of the few, Muga said. It doesnothing to help the poor or others who are dealing with reality, and is "non-sensical in the context ofthe needs and suffering out there." And for the future, Muga said, "If politically correct language can begrounded to problems people have on a day to day basis, then I'll probably be involved in it." MichaelDumas, coordinator for the Social Issues office for Associated Students, and former coordinator ofthe Gay and Lesbian Alliance (GALA), also dislikes the concept of politically correct language. "It is away for a majority of people to feel like they have somehow done a good service for those in theminority through its usage," Dumas said. "It's kind of a way for majority people to feel good aboutthemselves." Like Muga, Dumas added that, "If someone calls me a still treats me like a niglt; call me a nigger. It ^ clelt; "It's not the usage that bothers me, it's the weight of emphasis put on the language to the exclusion of emphasis on changed behavior." Dumas feels the emphasis on language itself isreally a wrong emphasis, because people can change their language without changing theirunderstanding or their attitudes. People can also use politically correct language to cover ignorance andbigotry, he said. "If someone calls me an African- American and still treats me like a nigger, I preferthat they just call me a nigger. It would make things a lot clearer," Dumas said. Instead of focusing onpolitically correct language, Dumas prefers people to strive for social consciousness, and to focus onother active ways, besides just changing words, to break down oppressive and hate-based systems.Angela Reed, co-coordinator of the Women's Center,"thinks that a focus on changing language isimportant, although she dislikes the term "politically correct." "At a time when we're trying to beaware of each other's feelings, I question why it's political," she said. Reed feels that our words defineour underlying feelings towards one another, and that a change in language affects a person'sthoughts. "We think and we talk with the same words. If we're talking with white culture words, that's the way we're thinking. When we make a conscious effort to change our language, we're saying it's timeto recognize that America really is made up of a lot of different backgrounds, and. we need to givethese people equality," Reed said. When asked if she thought politi- Affirmative action strives for equai oA By Caren CaHag nan staff reporter One of the first demands for equal opportunity was made in theDeclaration of Independence. It was a call for all people to be given the "unalienable rights" of "Life,Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness." Throughout history, men and women have challenged these rights through discrimination. However, in today's society, programs are being developed to promoteopportunities and encourage these rights for the advancement of minorities in the work force andschools. The Affirmative Action and Equal Opportunity Program at Western is designed to supportminority rights. According to the guidelines of the program, the objectives include developing "a workforce and student body which reflect an equitable distribution of minority...individuals at all levels ofemployment and throughout all departments of the University." Maurice Bryan, director for the Center for Equal Opportunity at Western, said affirmative action is a way of "taking positive or pro-active steps toprovide an environment in which everyone has equal opportunity. "Bryan said that Western would becheating non-minority students if the opportunities to be exposed to minorities' different views were notpresent. In this sense affirmative action "is a program for everyone, not just minorities," Bryan said. Inorder to increase the representation of minorities in the universities and work force, some other schools and employers have developed programs which include quotas. Quotas are numbers set for admittingminority students or hiring minority employees with the objective of increasing the presence ofminority groups previously discriminated against. "There's often confusion between quotas and goals ortargets," Bryan said. "Quotas are something that courts might set when a company or institution hasbeen found to be discriminatory. When you have a goal and you do not achieve the goal yoi revaluateyour efforts and set new goals." Eric Anderson, a political science major, said he feels that the effortshould be made through affirmative action programs to increase the minorities in the workforcelinWc1toOi» "But I have a problem with the use of strict numerical goals or quotas because ofproblems with revers crimination and because it cal people to be looked at as minor ---------- Western Front - 1992 January 28 - Page 9 ---------- January 28,1992 FEATURES The Western Front 9 y correct* language cally correct language is used bya majority culture"to soothe guilt and to .avoid deeper issues, Reed said she thought it was possible."Change in language is a way to tfrican-American and prefer that they just jt make things a lot MichaelDumas, Social Issues Coordinator 'start, but it isn't the solution," she agreed with Dumas and Muga. "It doesn't make everything OK. But if you don't change language, I don't see how you're going to changeanything else, either." Reed mentioned a professor who *said "she" instead of "he" for every instancewhere a generic pronoun was needed. "That just blew me away; I'd never had a class like that," Reedsaid. Reed explained that when other professors have used "he" or "him" that I she has always feltremoved from the discussion, as if listening to the history of someone else. With "she". Reed said she feels included. "If language could include me when I'd always felt left out, that must mean it is a step inthe right Idirection," she said. Students speak about professors using "politically correct" (inclusive,non-gender specific) language in the classroom (Example: "Postal carrier" instead of "Mailman") "Itseems kind of funny. It almost seemed offensive the opposite way ^—feministic to thepointof offendingmasculinity." — Trez, Senior, Manufacturing Engineering Technology "I think that's great. I try and talkto my teachers if they don't do that, if they are sexist, and try to bring it to their attention. I think it should be mandatory. You can't blame guys for being sexist when everything they hear is men, men, men,men, men." — Kelly, Senior, Business "Actually they don't. Spanish would be a very hard language todo that in. Can you imagine trying to do that in the Hispanic culture? Those macho men would have aheart attack and a half!" — Maria, Junior, Spanish/Education "Well, I'm not offended by the old style, you know, 'postman'. Iknow what they're talking about. I mean, they can if they feel like it. I feel it's justan individual preference. It's what people feel comfortable with." — Ann, Junior, Education "I guess I'dsay that first I'd be surprised and I'd also be kind of impressed that he'd worry about it. I'd feel he wasbeing upbeat about it — up to date. I feel it's a good thing." — Teresa, Senior, Education "The onlytime I don't appreciate politically correct language is when they say, 'Mankind' and then they say, 'Oh,does that offend you?' I think it can't just be what's in fashion. It should be in earnest." — Jennifer,Senior, Secondary Education "That's a lot more appropriate because it's more inclusive. It shows morethe reality that's going on, instead of one stereotype controlling society." — Ron, Sophomore,Biology/ Anthropology 'To me, it probably wouldn't make much of a difference. Words such as 'mailman' and 'manhole cover' have been so integrated into my everyday thought that it doesn't really matter much to me." — Joe, Junior, Psychology "I haven't given that much thought. I suppose I'm kind of neutral onit. Since I'm a guy it's not really a big issue with me." — Aaron, Senior, Psychology Student aims toteach rich heritage By Merilee King staff reporter A stereotype of the "drunk Indian" who gets moneyfordoing nothing persists in Alaskadespite the unfair inaccuracy of the statement. Julie Karlson, fromKetchikan, Alaska, said that many non-native Alaskans resent the natives because of the money andmedical benefits they receive. Many people in the community are embarrassed by those NativeAmericans who do drink heavily in public, she said. Julie Yates, a Native American from Prince WhalesIsland in Southeast Alaska, is majoring in elementary education at Western because she wants toteach Native American children about their culture in addition to the traditional history curriculum.While attending elementary school in classes which were a fairly even mix of native and non-nativestudents, Yates said she and other natives wondered why their own history was not included. "Iremember raising my hand and saying what about us, what about the Indians. The teacher didn't seem to know anything or really care," Yates said. She remembers the difficulty she and others from her tribehad in accepting the textbooks they were supposed to read as truth when the name of their tribe,Haida, was misspelled and some of the information was not correct. Often when the subject of NativeAmericans is taught it is generally about the past, Yates said. "I think it is good that it is being taught(the past), but it would be better if it included current Native American issues, too," she said. "There is still a lot of ignorance. There is a romanticized notion Americans hold that Native Americans shouldremain the same. This is a dangerous notion because all cultures change over time," said DanielBoxberger, Western anthropology professor. Yates says she has observed an increase in support andinterest on the part of non-natives for keeping the Native American culture alive. This includes promotingtourism of totem pole parks which she sees as a good sign for the native tribes because it brings inincome. But the interest does not always extend to the social problems of the tribes such assuicide,'alcoholism and poverty. Some misunderstanding and bit- Alaskan Native Julie Yates temessbetween natives and non-natives arises because non-native Alaskans resent the income NativeAmericans get from the Alaska Na-tiveClaims Settlement Act (ANCS A). In 1971, Congress allotted$962.5 million and title to 44 million acres of land to Alaskan Native Americans. Tribal corporations wereset up to oversee the land and investments. Each native born before 1971 is a shareholder. Yates saidthat she has personally experienced minimal resentment about ANCS A benefits. She says that theresentment she has felt since mov - ing to Washington is worse. She understands howmuchmoreresentment is directed towards Native Americans in Washington than Alaska. Peopleassume that since she is a - Native-American, she has the same fishing and hunting rights asWashington natives do. Sometimes, when she tells people she likes to fish, the snide commentsfollow. Most people are not aware that in Alaska fishing and hunting rights are confined to the landsallotted to natives through ANCSA. Yates said she does not believe that the system in Alaska is anybetter or worse, only different and wishes people would educate themselves on the actual laws andsurrounding circumstances before they make these judgements. Yates is active in the NativeAmerican Student Union at Western and expressed concern over the small number of Native Americansenrolled at Western. "They are some of the smartest Photo by John Lindblom people I know, they arevery meticulous and methodical," said Lynn Robbins, Huxley professor. Robbins has workedextensively with Native Americans all over the country, as well as many in Alaska. He says part of thereason that so few Alaskan natives do well in the university setting may be the difficulty of adjusting to a different culture. "Native students will go to a city, to a college and they'll get lonely. They get lonelyfor their community, for their language, for the things they are so accustomed to. Every part of their livestheir culture, it is part of everything they do," Robbins said. Many native cultures still obtain about half oftheir food from the wild and maintain many traditional customs. Many tribes are still isolated from non-native cultures; so the adjustment is quite difficult for some, Robbins said. "There is a reservation right next to us, there should be a lot more here, so there has to be some kind of problem," Yates said. "Itwould be logical to have Native American Studies. It would get a lot more natives to come. It would alsohelp teach some people in the community and help get rid of some stereotypes." Love Your NeighborIrtunity for everyone rather than human beings," Anderson said. Although the affirmative action programprovides a means of preventing discrimination, the problem is not obsolete. Liz Partolan-Fray,associate director for Diversity in Multicultural Services Center, said that although the affirmative actionprogram does an adequate job in terms of equal opportunity and admissions, she would like to seeprograms, such as additional scholarships, help minorities continue their education at Western. Ascoordinator for diversity in Admissions, Theodore Pratt Jr., said he feels that Western is doing a "bang-%Faccepting minorities." By striving towards an open line of communication, Pratt works to convinceminorities that Western is a "safe place." His main concern is putting students in a school that they donot feel comfortable in. Although admission programs and affirmative action do a good job at accepting minorities, Pratt said that there is sometimes a general lack of understanding for other cultures amongstudents. "What needs to exist is sensitivity, openness, awareness and a desire of understandingbackgrounds," Pratt said. Ron Gajadher, a first American generation of an East-Indian heritage, saiddiscrimination by faculty or students has not been a problem for him at Western, but he is aware that it still exists. One way that Western can offer more opportunities for minorities, other than theaffirmative action program, is through additional scholarships for all students, not just minorities,Gajadhar said. Bryan agrees that "colleges and universities have a responsibility to in programs thatencourage all students." Examples of such programs may include an aggressive scholarshipprogram or field experience of others working in the community, Bryan said. The Affirmative ActionOffice, which began at Western in 1973, changed its name to the Center for Equal Opportunity last year. Bryan said this was done as an effort to communicate that the center is an equal opportunity for all andthat affirmative action is a key strategy to achieve that overall objective. The center, located in OldMain 375, welcomes students with any concerns.about discrimination or unfair treatment regardingrace, sex, disability or sexual orientation at Western.

OVERLAND STAGE 738-1019 ---------- Western Front - 1992 January 28 - Page 10 ---------- 10 The Western Front FEATURES January 28,1992 Commentary Confronting racism By Tracy BrewderAsst. Features Editor The bar I work in was unusually quiet during the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday.One man was sitting down at the very end of the bar sipping a Long Island Ice Tea and reading a book.Another customer was talking about the good old days, in between gulps of beer, to a small group ofpeople who come in every Monday to play darts. I suddenly noticed how loudly the television was blaring as I took a seat on a bar stool. Usually during slow nights such as this, I tuned out the television andconcentrated on my homework, but tonight I decided to flip through the stations to see what was on. Ibecame instantly mesmerized by the screen as an inspiring speech, given by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.back in the '60s, was being re-played. His powerful words reverberated throughout the crowds he wasspeaking to and throughout the bar I was working at. As King's words lifted me, another man's wordschilled me. "Do we have to listen to this shit!" screamed an angry man referring to King's speech.Noticing I was the only one paying attention to the television, he looked directly at me with anintimidating glare as he shouted these spiteful words. I instantly felt my face turning red and myhands began to shake a little as I calmly replied, "Excuse me, do you have a problem with it?" Theman was obviously annoyed and he turned around with his back facing towards me. I continued to watch the rest of King's speech. Would he have shouted this comment across the bar if any African-American people were present? I doubt it. People can be so hypocritically polite when in the presence of minorities, but they become blatantly prejudice and express these opinions openly when theyare in an all-white crowd. They don't realize how offensive this behavior is because people usuallydon't say anything. This wasn't the first time I'd been subjected to others' prejudice in this bar, inBellingham or on Western's campus. But it was the first time I'd confronted a complete strangerand let him know that I was offended. About an hour later, this same old grumpy man, who had been inthe bar numerous times before, never leaving a tip and never smiling, had miraculously becomefriendly. He used the word "please" when ordering a drink and he even left me a 50 cent tip. I like tothink it was his way of saying, "I do have a problem. I'm sorry." People's inability to deal with racialconfrontations in Bellingham became apparent to me one day in class when I realized this wasn't aminority issue, but a white problem. An African-American woman told us a haunting story about herexperience of racism, or rather the lack of dealing with it. The mother quietly stood up and switchedseats with her daughter, confirming her daughter's fear that this woman might be someone to be afraidof. A fear based on nothing but color. As I heard this story, I wanted to believe it was nothing but a horrid flashback from the past, but unfortu- She began her story by explaining how she had recently movedfrom the South to Bellingham to attend Western. One night she attended a ballet on campus at thePerforming Arts Center where she sat do wn in her reserved seat next to a little girl and her mother. The little girl whispered to her mother that she didn' t w ant to sit next to this woman because she was black. nately it was something happening now in the '90s. I was disgusted. Why hadn't the mother introducedher little girl to this woman, assuring her there was nothing to be afraid of? My second question wasmore disturbing than the thoughtless action of the mother. Why was the little girl frightened ofsomeone because of their skin color? Did our present-day society teach her this fear? Wrapping up thestory, the woman said she had experienced more racism in Bellingham than in the South. Thisstatement struck through the numbness which had taken over my body throughout her story, I didn'twant to believe it. A stereotypical image formed in my mind. How could the laid-back and open-mindedpeople of Bellingham be more racist than the "red-necked Southerners'? All of a sudden I realized Iwasn't accepting her statement because I didn't want to accept that oppression taking place inBellingham was going unchallenged. After listening to the story told by the African-American student, Itold myself that I would never be like the woman who switched chairs with her daughter, a person whochose to ignore the situation rather than deal with it. A person who chose not to take the time toexplain to her daughter that this African-American woman was a person just like herself. I also vowedto never again remain silent about my feelings on racism when exposed to others' prejudices. If itweren't for her eye-opening story, I may have changed the channel on King's speech to avoid anuncomfortable situation instead of challenging the man's prejudices. I was tested on these vows I madeto myself on the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday when I challenged the man in the bar who ordered me toturn off King's speech. Instead of repressing my anger and ignoring the situation, I felt an overwhelmingamount of satisfaction for standing up to racism^ Picture Yourself Here.

"We wanted to get after them to begin with and press. ..them. I think we did a great job ofthat." The Viking defense was successful in "getting after them," holding them to only 39 percentfrom the field, and forced 31 turnovers from the number one team in the league. "They only shot 39percent and they were leading the district in field goal percentage, so when you shoot 57 percent andthey shoot 39 percent, that is a huge difference," Jackson said."We were going to out-work them nomatter what." Behind an incredible full-court press, Western's forward Duke Wallenborn kicked into highgear, despite back spasms that kept him off the court all week. "I haven't touched a basketball Photo by Jonathan Burton Dave Schmelke (41) shoots through Simon Fraser contact. since Monday (Jan. 20),"Wallenborn said. "It's been a while since I have played, and I was kind of anxious to get out there andplay again since I haven't played in a while." Wallenborn was in the face of Simon Fraser the entiregame. He registered two steals, four rebounds and 29 points before fouling out late in the second half.The status of Wallenborn was questionable due to the back spasms. "I think my adrenaline was going too, that kinda took away the pain a little bit," Wallenborn said. The dominance from Wallenborn opened the game for others, pulling nervous defenders to him. This gave five other Vikings the chance to scorein double figures. "I was trying to get open and if I get the ball, I get it, and if I don't, that'sokay 'cause we have players on the team that can score," Wallenborn said. "Duke has been hurt and didn't practice the last couple days," Jackson said. "It was nice to see him come out there and have a great game forus." The Vikings had a revenge factor come into play. The 95-88 loss to the Clansmen two weeks agowas a spur in the side of a team. "We went up there and they beat us," Wallenborn said. "We hadsomething to prove that we could beat them at our place. That kinda got us motivated."

This new starter is senior Michole Clemans. Although anyone who haswatched a game or a practice in the last four years is already familiar with Clemans. "When I came toWestern my dad told me to be the first one in the gym at practice and the last to leave," Clemans said.The 5-foot-9-inch forward has carried this advice over to pregame warm-up. She is the first on the courtand does not leave until she has shot at least 100 free throws and 50 outside shots. After almost fouryears of dedication and determination, many would view her new role as a starter as hard work finallypaying off, but Clemans doesn't see it that way. "I guess being a starter on a good college team hasbeen a goal in the back off my mind, but I don't take it any more seriously than any other role I've had as a member of this team," Clemans said. Clemans came to Western from Lynnwood High School where,as a senior, she was voted first-team Everett Herald All-Area and All- Western Conference. "Micholewas real excited about the program, it wasn't a hard sell," said Lynda Goodrich, Western athleticdirector and previously the women's basketball coach. "She liked Western as much for the academics as she did the basketball program." As a freshman Michole took it upon herself to become the team'smotivational leader. "Michole was one of those freshman with lots of energy and really worked toencourage her teammates, she hardly played but just really worked to inspire her team." saidcurrent head coach Carmen Dolfo, who was Goodrich's assistant at the time. Clemans played only 170minutes during her freshman year. "I looked at the team I had. My team went to nationals and I wasplaying behind two seniors; one of them was Ail-American, so I was realistic about how much I played. It was my job to be as motivational as I could from the bench," Clemans said. In fact she was somotivational that Goodrich had to have her sit at the opposite end of the bench so she could concentrate on coaching. Her next season was frustrating because she was recovering from a serious knee injurysustained the spring before her sophomore year. She played only 146 minutes that year, even less thanas- a freshman. But Clemans continued to work hard and saw 267 minutes of playing time in 27 of 28games her junior year. As a senior, Clemans will easily play more than her previous three years puttogether. Her role as a member of the basketball team has expanded from an inspirational leader tostarting forward and co-captain. She also leads the team with a 76 percent average on free throws aswell. "Michole's work ethic alone can encourage other people to workhard," Dolfo said. "Her role haschanged from not only getting people going and really encouraging them, to actually incorporating hercontribution to on court action as well." Clemans exercises this work ethic in the classroom as well inthe gym.

Aftergraduation this spring, Clemans plans to pursue a master's degree in education. Her goal is to become a high school social studies teacher and boys basketball coach. "Through teaching and coaching, mymain goal is to create a desire to learn," Clemans said. "I want to teach people the importance of hardwork and self confidence. Self image affects almost all the choices we make in life." She would prefer tocoach boys basketball because she feels they are at a higher level of competition than girls at the highschool level. "I want to coach people who talk, think, eat and dream basketball...I think girls reach thatlevel at the junior college and college level," Clemans said. But for now Clemans is enjoying hersenior year of college and her last year on the Western squad. Her parents always told her that when itstopped being fun, it was time to stop playing—and Clemans is first on the court every time. $2.00PITCHERS (60oz.)

"It's really good to see him playas well as he can play."The Viking win over Simon Fraser helped the team in the playoff picture as well.

"I look to go to the boards tonight a little bit more because we'vebeen hurting." "We had sorne great individual efforts tonight, Jeff Dick has been struggling, notstruggling in terms of his over all performance, but I think based on a comparison of himself and to themalready once and they're undefeated in league," sophomore guard Jeff Dick said. "We wanted to getback and get a little revenge on them." Dick had a big game as an individual registering five rebounds,six steals, eight assists, and 23 points including four three-pointers.

It seems as if every time a Democratic candidate forpresid tries toovercome the Republican incumbent his bedroom performance is rated before his ability to run the nation. Arkansas Gov. Bill Clinton, the leading Democratic presid tial candidate, is being accused of a 12-yearextramarital affair' political suicide for any candidate seeking this country'shigbs office. Gennifer Flowers,thewoman making the accusations, recently came public with her tale of romance after shesold her story to Star magazine. She said she went public because she loved him - and a leader in the Republicanparty urged her to. Unfortunately for Clinton, her love will not help him win Democratic nomination. Voteswill. This scene occurred four short years ago to Gary Hart. The difference is, Hart challenged the pressto find some dirton him. They did - her name was Donna Rice. Clinton did not ask the press to findanything incriminating about him. In fact, he said his marital problems are his own ana people should becommended for trying to keep a troubled marriage alive. Ironically, there has been no mention of hisopponent, Bob Kerrey, and the marital problems that ledto his divorce. When the news on the front pageof a sleazy, grocery-store' tabloid becomes front page news in the mainstream press, you need towonder about the integrity journalists so often spew ~ The next step would be for the New York Times topay som for a "scoop." To print a unsubstantiated story that is written solelyto diminish the character ofa presidential nominee is yellow journalism at best, completely irresponsible by the professionalstandards students of journalism are taught. Consider theorig' source of this story, Star magazine. This isthe same sortofsm that claims a woman gave birth to a child in a coffin andalien' are roaming the worldlike tourists. Clinton did not deny the allegations, but said they did not pertain to his ability to bepresident. In the wake of Flowers' allegations, his abilities have been virtually ignored. Clinton said hewon't discuss the issue anymore, he wants to address voters on the issues affecting the country now. Not some unsubstantiated claims about his sex life. Unless some solid evidence is produced to supportFlow allegations, it's time for the media to refocus on the issues concerning the election. - . ------ ,- IOPINIONS in our society by allowing it, like the crime of murder, to go unpunished. A rapist or potentialrapist needs serious help. But, in order for him to get the help he needs, a victim needs to call thesituation to the attention ofthe authorities. If a rape occurs that might have been averted, what good hascome of it? A man will be institutionalized at great public cost, and a woman's life will be devastated.University Police say there has not been a rape on campus since 1988. My friend, who works on campus, vehemently assures me that this is not true. She sees women on a regular basis who have experiencedthe legal definition of rape on campus but are reluctant to report it for fear of retribution by their aggressor, because they don't want to endure the possible public scrutiny, or possibly because they can't bear thehell ofreliving the event. And I can empathize with the feelings that a rape victim must have, but I havenever called any of those feelings my own. Being a man, I can never really know what it feels like to bestripped of dignity in such a way. I am trying hard to understand, though. Many of "us" men are. I find ittragic that it seems itmust be an "us" and "them" problem. But until society as an entity sees women asequals, and rape as a purely human crime, not as one mainly committed by "us" against "them," womenwill never be able to live without fear. Undoubtedly, fundamental sociological changes must take placebefore men realize that when they harass and rape, they are actually shredding the spiritual integrity ofanother human being capable of experiencing the same creative thought, intense emotion, and utterhumiliation; not just some "babe" who secretly wanted it anyway. One of the most productive actions we, as a collective body of students, can take in order to insure the realization of our professed goal oflivingin a less fearful society is for victims to kick, scream and yell that they refuse to let this happen to themanymore. The powers, of prevention, education and understanding are in our hands. I implore victims andwould-be victims of sexual harassment and assault to report it. Victims owe it to themselves for their own peace of mind to report sexual harassment and assault, they owe it to their community, and they havean obligation to prevent it from happening to their fellow students. There are many organizations on andoff campus that are there to support victims and to stop sexual assault. After all, harassment or rape that goes unreported is just an excuse for the same situation to happen over and over again. The proverbialchain must be broken by the victim before it wraps itself around the neck of another. Rape victims needto overcome fear, speak out By Troy senauts staff reporter I was speaking with a friend of mine the other day - she is a woman who has made it her vocation to help reassemble the emotional and spiritual livesof women who have had them ripped apart by men - men who have harassed them, men who have beaten them, men who have raped them. She and I were having a discussion which evolved into a discourse onthe miserable state of affairs the world is in today. We began to talk about the recent William KennedySmith trial and subsequent acquittal. She made an offhand remark about how she was surprised that thevictim had reported the rape at all, considering the victim knew Smith and the two were out on a date. My friend really was only half-kidding, mocking the seriousness of the subject, so as not to think about it forthe millionth time. But I began to think and I became unusually frustrated. I had hit an intellectual deadend. It was simply beyond my comprehension how any person can have something like rape happen tothem and not want to seek some kind of recompense for such a personal violation. Statistics from arecent survey of 32 college campuses around the country, compiled by psychologist Mary P. Koss ofKent State University, show that 84 percent of rapes are committed by someone the victim knows, Itmade me think that if over four out of five rapes occur between "friends," then something is wrong withsociety's definition of the word "friendship." The question of who is to blame for rape has been heavilydebated in the media lately. The crime ofrape is not like that of murder, where obviously a killer must bepunished for killing. Most rapes involve the breaking of an element of trust between two people. And trustis intangible. So, where do we lay the blame? Is it a woman's fault for becoming friends with and trustinga man, or is it a man's fault for betraying that trust if he rapes her? Statistics show that in WhateomCounty, six to eight rapes occur each week. Nationally, the Kent State survey found that among collegestudents, 42 percent of all rape victims told no one at all about their assaults, and only 5 percent told thepolice. The most disturbing statistic of all camefrom The NationalCampus Violence PreventionCenter, atTowson State University, which stated that 41 percent of rape victims expect to be raped again. Withoutquestion, rape is not the fault of the victim. No one asks to be raped. No one invites it. By definition, rapeis perpetrated against the will of the victim. But if a woman is raped, or thinks she will be raped, and does not do anything about it, she is directly contributing to the problem of rape 14 The Western Front ---------- Western Front - 1992 January 28 - Page 15 ---------- January 28,1992 LETTERS The Western Front 15 The unborn need choices, too Dear Editor: PaulElverud, in his Jan. 10 response to Tim Osterholm's letter, overstepped his boundaries by presuming to speak for all mature, intelligent women. I agree that as a woman I deserve a choice when I decide Idon't want to do something, but not when that choice harms or destroys another life. Many other mature,intelligent women likewise have no respect for a woman's "right" to abortion; instead they respect awoman who has consideration for the unborn life that has no choice. As a committed pro-lifer, I wouldnot feel comfortable seeking guidance from an office that boldly displays the pro-choice banner. Mr.Elverud, AS offices can only serve the student body when they are able to remain neutral on politicalissues. Otherwise, they will continue to waste student funds and tax dollars by catering to the left-wing minority. In Mr. Elverud's own words, "Hopefully, the Women's Center, and the AS as a whole,will avoid narrow-minded perspectives... and continue to stress the right of all people to have equalchoices."Bom and unborn alike. Mrs. Tricia Osterholm Alumnus Frontrunner Syndrome runs rampantDear Editor, We are now in a presidential election year. Unfortunately, as with all election years, somepotential voters get what I call "Frontrunners Syndrome." This is the tendency not to get involved in the political process because "so-and-so is going to win anyhow and my vote won't make any difference."Nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, other than an armed revolt by the people, voting is theonly thing that does make a change to the political landscape. Not voting certainly makes no difference.Another symptom of "Frontrunners Syndrome" is io vote for the candidate who is least farthest fromone's own political philosophy and who has the best chance of winning. This usually happens when the candidate one really wants seemingly has no chance of winning the election. If one does not vote forthe candidate one really wants, then that candidate's chances of winning are zero. It may be true thatyour candidate won'twin, butnotvoting for him or her will not help a bit. In asociety that wantsimmediate gratification, "Frontrunners Syndrome" runs rampant. We want to vote for the candidatethat wins. This behavior has had the effect of funnel-ing the ideologies of the two major political partiesinto one monolithic entity. Some call this process "the spirit of compromise." I call it political incest.Our governmental institutions are becoming more and more impotent in dealing with issues because of this convergence in the political gene pool. But we do it to ourselves when we don't vote for whomwe really want in office. Voting for an obscure candidate does not go unnoticed. At the very least, theclerks who record the votes will remember which candidates got how many votes. And chances are,they will pass this information to someone else. The word will get around. Maybe your candidate won'twin this time, but the more votes he or she gets in the present election will make it more likely that he orshe will win in the next. It's a choice between either patience or impotence. Sincerely, Eric LewisAlumnus Hays displayed professionalism To the Editors of the Western Front: I would first like tocommend Alex Hays for the professionalism he displayed during the last few days. I had the opportunityto view firsthand the devastation this episode caused him and I am sorry that, of all the board members,he was the one to be challenged. I feel it is important to express my support of Alex. Throughout theentire procedure he kept the interest of the student population, and the university, in mind when otherpeople would not have been so considerate. I have seen Alex work for student interests throughout theyear. He has made this university a better place for the student body. One specific example is hisstrong stand on the issue of student rights on the keg policy. He was willing to take stands for studentissues when others of the Associated Students remained silent I wish to express my thanks for hisexcellent leadership skills and regret to see him leave the board.

They were waiting for their father, a teacher atBellevue Christian School, to register for summer classes here. English rift sparks resignation bySANDY CATT Merrill Lewis, English department, recently resigned as Faculty Affairs Council (FAC)chairman to protest application Tor a grant to plan a new English master's degree. Lewis quit during theMay 24 FAC meeting, two weeks before lis term was to expire, because he grant proposal for aprogram in technical report writ-ng was submitted without com-jlete department review. If awarded, the money would )e used to plan and establish ourses in report and technical vriting for mid-management gt;ersonnel in fields like the )epartment of Social and lealth Services, Samuel Kelly, raduate Schooldean said. The three-year, $500,000 [rant proposal was submitted pproximately seven weeks go, Kellysaid. The grant equest was written by Ken ymes and Robert Brown, Eng-sh faculty, and is calledDocument Design Project Pro-ram." James Davis, College of irts and Sciences dean, and olden Larsen,English depart-lent chairman, approved the grant application and forwarded it to Kelly. Kelly gave itfinal approval and sent the request to the National Institute of Education. Lewis, who was unaware of the application until after it was submitted, said he thought all grant applications that might affect curriculum would be reviewed. "When I asked (Davis) how this grant went in, I was told it was none of mybusiness," Lewis said. James Talbot, vice president of academic affairs, said he "assumed" a committee existed to review the proposal, Lewis said. He said the further he inquired, the wider a variety of policyexplanations were given. "As a chairman, I ought not to have to spend hours on the phone just to belead on a merry chase for different committee members," Lewis said. Kelly, who reviews and authorizes all grant applications, said because the English grant request would initially provide money to plan anew program, it didn't need to go through the formal reviewing process. He said every grant proposal he accepts must have an active faculty sponsor and the department chairman's approval. "I have toassume when a proposal comes over here, it is with faculty support. I don't say total agreement; I sayreview" Kelly said. A general session was not conducted to discuss the proposal, Lewis said. "Thefaculty did review (the application) but a few faculty here and a few faculty there isn't the same as asystematic review," Lewis said. He charged Kelly was "a little cavalier" in his authorization of theproposal without more intensive review. "Program approval depends on something to talk about. We'renot talking about a new program. We're a long way from there," Kelly said. After the first planning year,before the master's degree is offered, it must be approved by the graduate council of the Englishdepartment, the other colleges within Western, the Graduate Council on Post Secondary Educationand the Board of Trustees, Kelly said. Campus security to be investigated byJOHNWATKINS Aninvestigation of the Safety and Security department is planned for either this summer or next fall. DougScott, AS vice president for internal affairs, requested the investigation. He said he wants theemergency procedures used by security investigated and the training given to student patrolmenreviewed. Scott said an incident in which Victoria Peabody, a Western student, lay on the ground fornearly an hour with a broken back before security officers called an ambulance was the "last straw" in aseries of incidents that lead him to believe the investigation was needed. R.G. Peterson, director ofsafety and security, said he welcomes the investigation. "I'd like to see the air cleared," Potorson said,"this department has no secrets." Potorson said records about tho Poabody incident could not legallybo made public. A student involved in the incident requested that the records not be released. Under thestate Security and Privacy Act, security must respect that person's desire for privacy. The SecurityAdvisory Committee (SAC) formed a task force to investigate security's procedures. Scott said he isunhappy with the composition of the proposed task force. The SAC "task force on safety and security" is to be made up of members of three commutes: the Central Safety Committee (CSC), the SAC and theParking and Transportation Committee (PTC). R.G. Peterson, director of safety and security, ischairman of the CSC and the SAC, and he is the only permanent member of the PTC. In a letterprepared for the Associated Students Board of Directors, Scott said, "It is important that the universitycommunity believes that a fair and totally impartial investigation is being conducted. Therefore, it isimportant that the task force has no relation to the Department of Safety and Security." Peterson saidhe would remove himself from participation in the three committees during the investigation. Nosympathy Ray raps Crabshell by CHRIS JARVIS Gov. Dixy Lee Ray will haVe ( no sympathy forprotesters planning to commit civil disobedience at the Satsop nuclear power plant site tomorrow and Saturday. [See related story page 2] Speaking at a press conference Monday, Ray said shewould not offer any "soft words" to those protesters, as she did for Trident protesters arrested at thenuclear submarine base at Bangor May 22 and 23. Ray was in Bellingham to address state Grangeconvention delegates. The convention runs the rest of the week. "Their announced intention," shesaid of the Satsop protesters, "is to trespass on private property, shut down an operation and causetrouble. And no, I don't have any soft words for them," she said. Asked her reaction to opponents ofthe proposed Puget Power nuclear power plant in Skagit Valley, she responded, "I ask them what theirhang-up is." She said those who oppose the proposed plant are "poorly informed." Ray said theoverwhelming voter support of proposition 13 in California was "well signaled." She said Washington-ians must take a wait-and-see attitude to see if the adverse effects that are predicted, actuallymaterialize. Ray told convention delegates that the passage of the proposition 13 is a "meat-axapproach to taxation." Regarding wilderness preservation, Ray said, "If it's wilderness, people can'tvisit it." She said the need to open recreational land is more important than preservation. Ray said34,000 people visited state parks last year. However, she noted that only one-half of one percent of the population ever can use the wilderness because "backpackers are the only ones that can get inthere." Ray also called the move by the federal government to take control of Washington's fisheries"arrogant and unnecessary." Negotiations had been going well between state, commercial fisheryand Indian officials, she said. •rH River dance The sport, the art and the pleasures of kayaking areexplored on page 7.

At least for one year. Funding, thebig obstacle to gaining varsity status, was temporarily solved by Mary Robinson, acting vice presidentfor student affairs. Robinson gave the athletic departments $5,000 from the Student Affairs office to fundmen's and women's soccer for the 1978- 1979 season. Coaching, however, will have to be funded by the team. A total of $1,500 must be raised. After the 1978-1979 season, the problem of funding is placedon the men's and women's athletic departments. Money for the athletic departments comes from theDepartmentally Related Committee. The Departmentally Related Committee gets its money fromservice and activities fees ($54 from each full-time student's tuition and $6 for each credit hour frompart-time students). The Departmentally Related Committee did not allocate any funds for soccer thisspring. Men's athletic director Boyde Long said they were simply "too late" in getting the request foradditional funds. Robinson said soccer's chances for remaining a varsity sport past the 1978-1979season depend on the Departmentally Related Committee getting a larger chunk of the service andactivities fees. Service and activity fees also support the Associated Students and Housing andDining. The service and activities fees are split with Housing and Dining getting 53 percent, theAssociated Students getting 26 percent and the Department-ally Related Committee getting 21 percent. A new service and activities fees breakdown will be made next January by a committee of sixrepresentatives. The committee consists of a student and an administrator from Housing Studentinterns get experience off-campus by BILL MCNEILL Internships at Western are alive this summer andare doing well off campus. Approximately 10 departments have about 90 interns earning credit for field experience off campus. Often interns receive a salary. This does not include many students workingat jobs that were formerly internship positions which evolved into summer jobs in the student's major area. Neither does it include the human services or education departments, which have on-going field placement programs throughout the year. The technology department and the leisure studies program give the most summer internships. Leisure studies anticipate about 27 students for summerinternships. Leisure studies 471, "Internship and Seminar," allows students to work up to 10 weeks full-time for 15 credits. Many students work in outdoor settings such as summer camps, city andcounty park departments, the National Park Service, and the special services division of the U.S.military. Other placements are in mental health clinics, hospitals, and alcoholic rehabilitationprograms. Three students in this course have set up their own guide service for river rafting.Students in the program are placed as far away as New York and Alaska. The technology department has over 25 students placed in summer internships, Dick Vo-gel, industrial work-study supervisorand technology faculty member, said. They are enrolled in technology 402, "Cooperative Work-Study," and receiving up to 15 credits for jobs with pay. Most internship students are juniors orseniors, and earn approximately one credit for each 40 hours of work, but many students are earningbetween six and nine credits. Student placements include such jobs as engineering aides, graphicsdesign assistants, auto mechanic assistants, and furniture makers. One student is working as a yardcontroller in a Tacoma lumber mill in management training. Another is a technical aide in Boeing'sAuburn plant. A third student designed a construction contract to build tables and chairs for a rangerstation near Quil-cene, Washington. He then bid for the job and was awarded it. Four students areenrolled in Vicoed 449, "Field Intern-continued on page 8 and Dining, a student and an administratorfrom the Associated Students and a student and a faculty member from the Departmentally RelatedCommittee. Robinson said soccer or another sport might have to be eliminated if there isn't arenegotiation of the split for the service and activities fees. Long agreed the possibility always existedthat one sport might have to be eliminated but said eh'minating a sport "would be the worst thing wecould do." If a sport had to be eliminated, soccer,, which probably would have over 60 participants,might still be kept. "I don't think it (soccer) is just a one year shot," Long said. Long would not saywhich sport might be eliminated or what criteria would be used to eliminate a sport if necessary, but hesaid numbers of participants was not necessarily a factor. Soccer members will begin their fundraising campaign in the fall. The question of how a coach will be paid after the 1978-1979 season is stillin doubt. "We would like to raise it (the money for a coach) by the end of fall quarter," Joe Sutton,president of the Associated Student's soccer club and a representative on the athletic committee, said."We feel we can go to the community now that we're a varsity sport." Any money that might be in theAssociated Student's soccer club fund can not be used to pay for a varsity coach. The money has toremain because soccer will continue on a club basis in addition to the varsity team. Crabshell Allianceprotests nuclear plants by JESSIE MILUG AN Anywhere from "hundreds to thousands" of demonstrators are expected to gather this weekend at the construction site of the Satsop nuclear plants near Elma,southwest of Olympia. On Sunday, the Crabshell Alliance, a state-wide group promoting "safe and lifeaffirming energy policies," plans to "mobilize the citizenry and march onto the site and occupy it untilconstruction has ceased," according to its press release. Non-violence training sessions "areessential for people planning civil disobedience," local Crabshell Alliance spokeswoman MarthaMcKibben said. "The majority of the people from Bellingham probably will be support people" toattend rallys and workshops on alternative engery choices Saturday on the nearby Spaulding farm."The non-violence training sessions we have had are only for those people who plan to get arrested. Wewill have a last minute session on Spaulding's farm where we will gather," McKibben said. Thoseplanning to enter Sunday will plant trees and bushes on the site to begin reclamation of the manyacres of land cleared for construction, according to the Alliance. A survey of Gray's Harbor County isplanned Saturday to pinpoint local attitudes about the Satsop development. Developing "strong andtrusting ties" and educating the community are goals of the demonstration, which has been dubbed the"Satsop Reclamation" by the Alliance. Stopping construction and restoring the site are demands madeby the Alliance to the Washington Public Power Supply System, the agency building the nuclearplants. "We don't think there will be as many people getting arrested as at the Tridentdemonstration," McKibben said. About 260 persons were arrested while protesting the Tridentnuclear submarine May 22 and 23 at the Bangor base. "This is the first action at Satsop that will putpeople in an arrest situation. We can gain support and build "like the Trident movement has," she saidof the Alliance that has been active for about one year. The group got their name from similarorganizations around the country against nuclear power, McKibben said. The first group was theClamshell Alliance, from Seabrook, N.H., which protested a nuclear power plant site nearclambeds. The group's intention was "to speak for the clams," McKibben said, because the shellfish don't have a voice in the change of their habitat. The Abalone Alliance in Calif, and the SunflowerAlliance, Kan. are other groups organized to protest nuclear development, she said. McKibben saidpeople wishing to carpool to the site may meet at 9 a.m. in the Fairhaven parking lot on Saturday and Sunday. She stressed that interested people should contact the Alliance at 734-6119, days or 733-3901 evenings. Mass trial proposed for protesters by JESSIE MHUG AN The largest trial in UnitedStates history could take place in the Seattle Center Coliseum this summer. It will only occur if over 260 demonstrators arrested at the Trident nuclear submarine base in Bangor get their request of a massappearance in federal district court. People arrested May 22 and 23 at the Trident demonstration fortrespassing and "re-entry," a second-offense trespassing charge, made a pre-trial motion Monday to theU.S. prosecutors office in Seattle for a mass trial, defendant David Mueller said. The coliseum is the only facility large enough to hold the defendants, Mueller said. The proposed trial would be instead of fivetrials scheduled this summer, in which the defendants would appear in groups of 5 to 107 before twodifferent judges. Mueller, from Bellingham, said he thinks the groups will have some bargaining power to get the mass trial. "Many of us could ask for a jury trial and we may get it. The individual trials •would tie up the court docket 'indefinitely — so the courts '• might comply (with the request for amass trial)," Mueller said. Publicity is "certainly one , element" in the mass trial request, Mueller said."But another element is that the court system makes people feel immobile and helpless by divid- , ingthem," he said. "The interest (in the case) is dispersed while the issue is the same — the court istrying to , divide people even though 'everyone is there for the same reason," David's wife, Lucia Smith-Mueller said. . Mueller said he has not been "putting energy" into the case because "I have alreadymade my statement to the courts" by being arrested. Trident demonstrators were arrested after entering the base in a protest against nuclear submarines to be docked there. Those charged with "reentry" were arrested on the base May 23 after receiving "barring letters" the day before warning them against entering the base again. ---------- Western Front - 1978 June 22 - Page 3 ---------- Thursday, June 22,1978 Western Front 3 RAY RESPONDS — Gov.

AS councils could be weeded Doug Scott, vice president for internal affairs-elect, willsubmit two proposals dealing with AS organizations at the AS Board of Directors meeting June 27. Thefirst calls for reorganization of all AS councils and reducing the number of members. "We need toweed out members who aren't interested in what they're doing," Scott said. "The Recreation Council,for instance, has 26 members, I'd like to get it down to 11." Other groups affected would be theActivities Council, Facilities Council, Services Council and Bookstore Council. Scott said similarorganizations would be represented as one body rather than independent units. "Instead of havingone representative from each of the club sports and other clubs which we do now, we'd have twomembers represent all the club sports, two representatives for all the recreation clubs and so forth," hesaid. "We also would have two independent at-large members working with all the councils to helpassure objective decisions," he added. Scott said the proposal also calls for his office to be givenauthority to nominate replacements in council positions if vacancies occur. "They (AS president and vice president of external affairs) have the power to do this, so my office should also," he said. Scottsaid the move is justified because final decision making power will rest with major organizations suchas the AS board and various committees. Scott's second proposal calls for an AS committee todetermine if AS suborganizations are using AS funds to further their political causes. "I've observedtoo much abuse of students' funds by groups trying to benefit their own political beliefs," he said. Scottsaid a committee of about five persons is needed to find abuses and tell guilty organizations toconform or disband. "The committee will disperse after the survey is made," he added. "It will be myjob or someone else's to keep an eye on things after that." Kurt Hanson, AST presidentelect, said hefavors both proposals as long as they are handled carefully. "We must deal with each position andgroup individually," he said. Scott said both proposals are in rough form and open to suggestion andimprovement. Religious groups might get free space byJOHNWATKINS A decision that would forcereligious groups to pay rent for the use of space in campus buildings might be nullified Tuesday at anAssociated Students Board of Directors meeting. Last year's board adopted a policy Spring quarteron the recognition of student groups which excluded religious groups. Only student groups can meet inthe student union building (the Viking Union) rent-free. The policy was intended to bring the AssociatedStudents in line with the state consitu-tion, according to a brief prepared for the board by last year'sAS President Dave Clark and board member Martin Reeves. The state constitution prohibits the useof state property for "religious activities, exercise, or instruction." The new AS President, KurtHansen, said he thought the policy was unfair. He and other board members went on record against thepolicy during the elections last quarter. The policy passed at a meeting attended by ministers ofinterested christian groups and over 100 students prior to the voting. Before the voting, Hansen saidhe thought arrangements could be made for religious groups to use Viking Union space without payingrent. The Friday Night Fellowship threatened to 'sue if it is charged a rent that would , approach the cost of suing. The fellowship has refused offers of free space from the Campus Christian Ministry and Hillside Chapel.

"The program is a littlelarger than previous years, and I don't see us expanding it much further in the near future," Sparks said.Assistance to 175 students enrolled in six and nine week sessions totalled $140,000. Last summer, 125 students received $75,000 through National Direct Student Loans, college work-study jobs andSupplemental Educational Opportunity Grants. "This is the first year we gave any substantialamount of Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants," Sparks said. More student loans also were given this summer. Summer financial aid is the money left from the previous academic year's program.Sparks said the usually rigid eligibility requirements for summer aid were less strict this quarter,however, only students qualifying for assistance during the previous year were eligible for aid. Students graduating at the summer's end previously were given priority consideration. This year, studentsgraduating anytime next year also were given preference. Awards were based upon student's 1977-78financial need statements. "One option students could explore, if they weren't given aid," Sparks said,is federally- ' insured student loans available at banks and credit unions. This loan charges sevenpercent interest, but some students with yearly family incomes less than $25,000 are exempt frominterest charges until after graduation, Sparks said. Payment of a student loan usually begins ninemonths after completing school. Institutional student loans for less than $300 are available at thefinancial aid office. This loan requires a co-signer who promises to pay the loan if the student fails torepay within six months. Students can make monthly payments or a lump sum repayment on the sixpercent interest loan. The financial aid office also offers short-term emergency loans of up to $50. The30-day, six percent interest loans can be obtained in one day with a signature guarantee ofrepayment. Sparks also recommends the Student Employment Center's offerings for students whoneed to supplement their summer incomes. Viking cars are stars A New York-based film crew visitedhere recently to shoot a 20-minute documentary on Western's experimental Viking cars. Sponsored bythe Aluminum Association, the film "deals with aluminum as a contemporary metal," Mel London, film crew chief, said. "We're talking about the future in our film and aluminum autos are the way to go,"London said. The aluminum Viking IV and V cars, designed to be lightweight and fuel-saving, werefilmed on the road and in construction. The film will be released to schools by Vision Associates nextfall. The cars, which have won national awards in performance and efficiency, are designed andconstructed by faculty and students of the Vehicle Research Institute, a division of the technologydepartment.

Tenure is a time honored way toassure job security of college professors, who at one time feared the loss of their jobs because of falseaccusations, misconceptions and paranoia that ran rampant throughout the US in the 1950's. Asexpressed by various college educators, the tenure system should be either abolished or changed toprovide what it was originally intended to do. Ideally, tenure was designed to protect educators who,because of their beliefs and their value as educators, had to be protected from arbitrary dismissal fromteaching duties. Former Fairhaven Dean Joseph Bettis was granted tenure by the Board of Trustees at its June 1 meeting. While we don't question Bettis' abilities as an educator, we question the policy by which the tenure was granted. Newly appointed member of the Board of Trustees, Curtis Dalrymple said, "He(Bettis) appeared to have excellent qualifications. His background in publishing, teaching and civic dutieswere fine." What about other professors at Western who have been denied tenure or promotion eventhough some have had much more experience? Bettis has been at Western for three years and in thattime has not had a great amount of experience in the classroom at Western. How many administratorsdo? The criteria for granting tenure, and the job security that goes along with it, should be based on theprofessors ability to gain the respect of collegues and students alike. This is not to say that one must bewell liked, but one must have proven himself in the classroom, in literature pertaining to his or her fieldand in civic activities. Our question is, has Joseph Bettis been granted tenure by virtue of his former postas dean of Fairhaven College, or by his abilities within the classroom. Bettis must prove himself in theclassrooms of Western before granting of tenure can be justified. One question remains unanswered.Why was Joseph Bettis granted tenure when he didn't even gain the confidence of his own faculty andstaff members at Fairhaven? Dixy's crabby too Gov. Dixy Lee Ray thinks the prospective protesters ofthe Satsop nuclear power plant site are trouble makers. We think they are trouble haters. Ray's concept of the protesters' intentions "to trespass on private property, shut down an operation and cause trouble,"sounds as though she isn't quite hearing the "squeaky wheel" the Crabshell Alliance is creating. As thealliance said, "it is up to people to put a stop to nuclear power before nuclear power puts a stop topeople." These persons, who feel strongly enough against nuclear power to put their freedom in jeopardy, shouldn't be discounted as mere trouble makers. Mere rabble rousers wouldn't expend the effortsacrificed by prospective protesters to plan workshops on nuclear power and alternative energy sourcesand organize the non-violent training sessions required of persons intending civil disobedience. Plant site trespassers plan to plant trees. That doesn't sound like a bad idea because last winter the plant sitebegan eroding into the nearby Chehalis River. The run-off destroyed several salmon spawning creeks. The Skagit River, which will accommodate the proposed Skagit Valley nuclear power plant, would remainunchanged if many local persons had their wav. - Monday, Ray said those who oppose the Skagit plant are, "poorly informed." Information compiled by the Bonneville Power Administration concluded thatsaving energy through conservation would cost only one-sixth of the money required to produce an equalquantity of energy from a nuclear power plant. Conservation is cheap and can be implementedimmediately, but in this automated society human labor is devaluated. Historically, industry hassubstituted energy for human effort. American industries require one-third of the nation's total energywhile providing one-tenth of the country's jobs. The effort expended by Satsop protesters might involve alarge cost: freedom. As crazy as Ray thinks them to be, the Crabshell group appears to be planning asane approach to a powerful state and national problem. As your attorney... Drink it inside, or dump itout Editor's Note— "Your Attorney's Advice" will appear each week on this page to address legalconcerns of the university community. Dan Warner is a practicing attorney in Bellingham. If there is amatter that you would like to have addressed, drop a line to: Opinion Editor, Western Front, Bellingham,WA 98225. By Dan Warner Question: What are the policies on consumption of alcohol on campus?Answer: The Campus Security treats drinking here just as the police treat it in general. A person of age(21 or over) can drink on campus if he or she does so in a non-public place — in a dorm room forexample. Obviously, an underage person can also drink in the privacy of his own room, break the law,probably not get caught; it's likely that frequently happens. Unless drinkers are really rowdy, the securityofficer will not have reason to knock on doors and ask for ID. However, "Minor in Possession" (of alcohol) is a crime, and carries a penalty: for the first offense, a $50 fine and usually a two or three daysuspended sentence. It is illegal for anyone to drink in public; if you're caught doing that, the policeusually tell you to take your bottle and go home, or pour it out on the spot. If you refuse, you will bearrested, and the penalty is, again, a fine and a suspended sentence. Usually people don't get caught asMIP's (minor in possession) because they are found drinking at a party or gathering, but rather becausethey are carrying a bottle or a can from place to place, and then they're arrested. The other thing to beaware of is it is illegal for an adult to furnish liquor to a minor. Here's a question not asked, but answered anyway: yes, the Campus Security are commissioned offers ready, able and willing to arrest you andcharge you with a crime. There are 12 officers who wear badges — they are official policemen. Actuallythe Campus Security is a highly trained and very professional group: they must pass written, oral,physical, and mental tests and they attend a 10 week police academy. Under any circumstances, it'svery bad policy to be rude and abusive to oolice, because thev can then write you up for Obstructing anOfficer and create a hassle for all. staff EDITOR: Jessie Milligan NEWS EDITOR: Sandy CattPRODUCTION MANAGER: Rick Eskil PHOTO EDITOR: Chuck Leach COPY EDITORS:John WatkinsBruce Stinshoff OPINION EDITOR: Chris Jarvis The Western Front is the official newspaper of WesternWashington University.

Steve Dolmatz is the host of the open mike and is also the first performer at everyThursday night session. He performed for about a year at Fast Eddie's before he became host. "Itis really the only acoustic open mike in town," Dolmatz said. "Some of the best music in town is playedhere, and every night someone will blow everyone out with a great set," he added. Other places haveopen mikes, but they are different from Fast Eddies. The Hacienda's is more electric and MammaSundays at Western is focused around a featured act instead of the guest performers, Dolmatz said.The audience rarely pays close attention to the acts unless it is something extraordinary or unusual.However, all performers are not ignored but listened to in the manner of back-ground music. Randy andBarbara Clein are the new owners of Fast Eddie's and under the new management the restaurant hastaken on a more creative image. A poetry reading is offered each Monday night as well as the Thursdayopen mike. "If you stimulate an audience you will bring in a good audience," Dolmatz said. Theaudience is not the only one stimulated by the performances. The performers also are stimulated byentertaining and a free pitcher of beer. Cristian Miller, a regular performer at the open mike, said, "Itbothers me that they don't listen but it is challenging. The acoustics are horrible and the sound systemis bad. You have to be powerful enough to stir the people." "I like the place here a lot. It is as close to aGreenwich Village type atmosphere that can be found," Ove Oftness, an acoustic guitar player andsinger, said. THAT'S ENTERTAINMENT — Jess the mime clown performed at Fast Eddie's openmike. She was one of many performers who caught the crowd's attention, with the help of Jenny,Concerts commemorate Schubert Jesse Wilmes, a mime clown and flutist, said "Performing hereprojects a good feeling." Wilmes projected a good feeling to the audience with her mime routine. She isone of the few with a non-music act and was able to grasp the attention of the audience. Her four-partact included skits entitled "The Bread Line," "Lollipop Kid," "Emotions," and "Hitchhiker." Wilmes later played the flute in a four-piece band. She said she performs because "I have a lot of friends in theaudience." Dolmatz said one of the reasons people perform is because no pressure is put on theperformers. But the performers put the pressure on themselves. Oftness said "I am not nervouswhen I am up there. Just afterward I become nervous." With the option of other open mikes inBellingham, the performers and the audiences prefer Fast Eddie's version over the others because ofthe atmosphere. Not that the air is any better at Fast Eddie's than anywhere else, but it is, as Oftnessput it, "the coffee house feeling." The patrons are attracted because of this setting. Steven Garmanian,a regular viewer of the open mike, said he goes because "It is a wholesome social setting. I go to findout what is going on in the music world in Bellingham." The open mike was summed up best by Miller:"I think it is great that places like Fast Eddie's, Mamma Sunday's, and the Hacienda are open enoughto be open." Jenny Vocal and chamber music of Franz Schubert will be presented in a series ofThursday evening concerts starting tonight. The concerts, in commemoration of the 150thanniversary of Schubert's death, begin at 8:15. Wine and cheese are served during intermissions, andadmission is free. Tonight's music will be "Die Schoene Muellerin" sung by Bruce Pullan in thePerforming Arts Center, Choral Auditorium. Ford Hill, pianist, also will perform "Impromptus" duringthe opening concert.

Dennis Catrell, theatre dance department chairman and summerstock director, selected for production: "Something's Afoot," an Agatha Christie murder mysteryspoof; Shakespeare's love comedy, "Love's Labor Lost;" William Inge's "Picnic," an award-winningexploration of youth and shattered dreams; Leonard Gershe's "Butterflies are Free," a sad-sweet tale oflove; "Dial M for Murder," Frederick Knott's psychological thriller; and Joseph Kesselring's comedyand perennial favorite, "Arsenic and Old Lace." The children's plays are being produced by children'stheater director Douglas Van-der Yacht, in conjunction with summer stock.

Summer stock is billed as "15 credit hours of total involvement in theater," for nine weeks. Catrell told the first meetingof about 36 last Friday, "the involvement will be more demanding and exhausting than you think orremember." Each day for the nine weeks all company members must be available for rehearsals andother "crew calls" for three periods (morning, afternoon and evening) sometimes lasting into the night. Inaddition to rehearsals, duties include lighting assignments, costume work, publicity assignments, setbuilding and other areas. ~ Catrell will be directing "Love's Labor Lost" playing July 19 through 22; "DialM..." running August 9 through 12; and "Arsenic." running August 16 through 19, the last production.

Any kayaking enthusiast, however,will recognize this expression as the movement that allows him to play in dangerous waters with theconfidence and grace of an otter. Kayaking, originally developed by Indians a3 a means oftransportation and livelihood, has evolved into a sport which is attracting a small but fervent group ofpractioners. Francis Hildebrand, a 50- year-old mathematics professor who also teaches kayaking atWestern, said the sport has not yet come of age in this country. He estimates only 40,000 kay-akerslive in the United States compared with 60,000 in West Germany. But the numbers are growing.Hildebrand said when he began kayaking 10 years ago, it was rare to see another kay-aker. Now, 10 to12 students a quarter enroll in the class he started two years ago. The reasons why this sport" yet hasnot reached widespread popularity might appear obvious to those of average daring: plummetingthrough Whitewater in a tiny fiberglass craft seems dangerous. Hildebrand maintains the hazardsactually are minimal once a person masters the basic skills, however. "The most dangerous part of anykayak trip is driving to the river," he says. Training begins in Carver Pool. Students receive 10 hours ofinstruction in paddle strokes and in the Esquimo Roll and its variations (the Roll is like a sidewayssomersault performed with the kayak attached to you.) Then, students are ready for their first plungein the Sauk River. A group of 10 beginners is accompanied by six supervisors. After the riverexpedition, four to six more hours are spent in the pool, Hildebrand says. This allows students toperfect their skills in a calm environment. Hildebrand admits the experience has its "anxiousmoments" but said that is the result of its novelty. "It's scary as hell because you're not used to it,"he said. He often will join a student in a seemingly threatening situation to prove it is really safe.Some people, Hildebrand said, will become paralyzed by fear. Others find it gives them energy. Perhapsthis might explain why those who take to the sport do so with an enthusiasm approaching a religiousconversion. One such devotee is Jay Nombalais, 26, a former student of Hildebrand's. "I'mconsumed," Nombalais said. He said he spends two days a week in white water and another twopaddling his kayak around Chuckanut Bay. He describes kayaking as "almost a spiritual discipline... Itcomes down to being fully concentrated in a particular moment. You have to be because your lifedepends on it when you're in big water." He chose kayaking over other vater sports such as canoeingand rafting, he said, because the kayak allows him to be closer to the water. "It is an extension of yourbody. You don't sit in a kayak — you wear it." He said kayaking is a powerful experience andspeaks with excitement about the energetic exchanges between a kayaker and the water. "Power iswhen you have control of yourself and of the kayak. You never have control of the river, yet you are ableto dance with it. In fact, once you find a balance, you can literally choreograph a routine coming down ariver." Dancing might sound like a delicate description for such a rugged sport but the word occursfrequently in Nombalais's conversation. In fact, it seems to be a well-established expression in theterminology of kayaking. Michael Cochrane, who used to teach Hildebrand's class along with him, is inthe process of writing a book about kayaking. This is one of his descriDtions: Lake travel can be adance, but your partner, the lake, rarely gets exhuberant. Rivers can be stately processions, waltzes,polkas — sometimes they throw you about like demented adagio dancers; and in some rare andpowerful moments, they prefer to dance alone. Nombalais takes the idea a step further. He saidkayaking is an "art form," which can never fully be mastered. "You become more proficient but you arealways seeking to become more in tune with the water, to get closer and closer to the medium itself."Because it is a sport which relies more on intuition and subtle techniques than strength, Nombalais andHildebrand said women comprise one half of his classes. For the same reason kayaking also ispracticed by people of all ages. Hildebrand was 40 when he started and he says it is not unusual to see60- and 70- year-olds out on the water. Although available to anyone, kayaking does seem to attracta particular type of person, the adventuresome. Nombalais compares a river run to an exploration. Hesaid he has been able to go places in a kayak that few others have seen. "You are seeing nature from a completely different vantage point because what you are seeing is inaccessible except in a kayak." Healso said a lot of romanticism is involved in the sport because it is still so relatively untried. "It's whereskiing was about 40 years ago. There's a tremendous camaraderie a-mong kayakers, a real bond."Hildebrand said he kayaks "because there is no tenure in it." In a culture which he said is "so oriented to wanting permanence," it helps him to remember that "we only have a temporary position on theplanet." Hildebrand does not swim and said he is terrified of water. Because of the potential dangerinvolved in kayaking he said it is a good way to learn to live with your fears. Nombalais said the sporthas improved his life. "It has cleared up a lot of things as far as priorities go. Some struggles seemmeaningless and the creative parts of my life are enhanced. It puts you in touch with the raw power ofnature itself. It wears off on you. It must."

LV, No. 15 Bellingham, Washington Friday, Feb. 8, 1963 D0UG MOSER, senior government major at Western, will leave this year for a stintin the Peace Corps. Moser hopes to go to India. Moser To India Westernite Joins PC I n a recentinterview, Doug Moser, a senior majori n g in political science and sociology, informed this r e p o r t er t h a t w i t h i n t h e y e a r h e plans t o be in Indian s e r v i n g t h e Peace Corps as a teacher in t he secondary schools. In response to a query of why he chose India, Moser replied, "In short, within thenext 10 or 20 years, because of both location and population, India is going to be the seat of world-power . . . much as was Britain in the 18th and i:)th Centuries." • • • Mosor recently appeared onChanrsl 12's "Emphasis" (Sundays Jan. 20), where he participated in a panel discussion on Nehruand India. Moser, who graduates this June, says that if he is accepted by the Peace Corps, he mustattend a four-month training period starting this summer. During this time he must learn the physical,practical, theoretical and political implications of the Peace Corps plus the requirements of hisparticular trade (teaching). When asked if he could speak Indian now, Moser said, "No, but it isessential." During his four-month training he must learn to read, write and speak the language fluently.Moser will be teaching in In: dian for two years, the maximum length of time allowed for service in thePeace Corps. His salary for those two years will total $1800. In addition to this sum, he,; will receivean-allowance to cover living expenses. The Peace Corps will accept any qualified-individual over 18years of age. If anyone is accepted- and sent overseas, and if he is married, his spouse must go withhim. She for he) must be qualified for service, also. Like most of the armed forces, the Peace Corpsoperates on a "choose before you serve" basis. Before you begin training you may choose youroccupation and the country in which you want to work. U l T ' IT'S A RAID! tf Even Sehome Not Safe Asiren blaring; a four-passenger sports car packed with five Western students; two Bellingham policemotorcyclists, two police patrol cars; a search; no siren found; one policeman saying "OK, letthem go;" another saying "No, make him walk" — these were some of the facts of an incidentinvolving five Western students and four Bellingham police vehicles last spring quarter thatconverged on the corner of Holly and Garden. A Westernite, junior Chuck Sny-dar, related thedetails of the incident. • • • The incident started when five guys in a four-passenger sports carwent downtown. Upon passing a police motorcycle Snyder called out one of his famous "siren"imitations. The group was stopped by the motorcyclist patrolman and the group was informed thatfive people in a four-passenger vehicle was illegal. The patrolman declared that he would let them off ifthey would go immediately back to the campus and get rid of one fellow. Later at the corner of Gardenand Holly the sports car was halted by two patrol cars and two motorcycles, one being the cycle thathad already stopped the group before. The ear was searched in the trunk, under the hood, and under the seat. No siren was found. An argument ensued between the two policeman. The result—Snyderwalked back to the campus and the sports car, minus one passenger continued. Snyder implied thathe was slightly disgusted with the whole affair, although he recalls "It is quite humorous now." • •• Criticism of the Bellingham Police Department came from senior Dick Hedges. He protested,"The majority of the Bellingham police are looking fpr something to do to keep them busy, butappear blind to more serious law breakers." Hedges cited as an example the continual use of EastMaple Street near a local root beer drive-in restaurant, by a high school group for a "speedway, donut,and squealling area." IT'S A RAID A reinforcement of Hedges' Police On Westernites "We usually hearabout Western's parties after they're over," stated Chief Edward Bartelson of the Bellingham PoliceDepartment. "We have received good student cooperation in keeping student parties down,-' contin-used the Assistant Chief, Cecil Klein. Captain Dehardt Erickson commented on the behavior ofalcoholic offenders. "We only end up with those students unable to take care of themselves, or nottaken care of by their friends." From the chief to the cop on the beat, the Bellingham police force agrees on Western students. Chief Bartelson stated, "We are proud of the students!" "I would like tocongratulate the students on their deportment," emphasized Captain Opie Brock. PatrolmanGlenn Vander-brink continued, "Compared with other college cities, demeanor is good." According topolice spokesmen the main trouble spots for Western students are liquor and speed, but even heretrouble is at a minimum. The speeders are usually new students who race down Indian Street wherethe police are frequently waiting for them. Captain Erickson laughed, "Actually things have been muchbetter in the last few years at Western. We haven't even had any Peeping Toms lately." protest camefrom junior Ray Burke. "When the Bellingham Police Department has nothing better to do than to drivearound looking for potential Peeping Toms then I think their purpose as an efficient and necessarypolice department, which should respect and protect the rights of all Bellingham citizens, has ceased." Burke was referring to a recent incident when he had to plain clothesman that he actually lived in hisapartment, and explain why he was standing in his own yard looking at one of his apartment windowsat 9 pjn. "Is it illegal to stand outside my own window at 9 p.m.?" Burke concluded. PRAISE FOR BPD "Bellingham police are really great. They give college kids a break, the benefit of the doubt. However,one of the local judges isn't consistent in his treatment of college students and young adults," anunidentified Westernite declared. Western student traffic patrolman Larry Harnden said, "TheBellingham Police Department has been giving us good support with traffic after the basketball games."WWSC junior George Toulouse stated satirically, MThey seem to be an efficient organization." • •* Junior Ray Konecke stated, "They seem to be down upon college students. They seem te give olderpeople a break, though," Honors freshman Mike Ness declared," The Bellingham police aremeddlesome in personal affairs." He was referring to ait incident on Sehome Hill where some localteenagers were boisterous. A B e l l i n g h a m policeman according to Ness, went from "car to carasking naive ques* tions^ Anybody could see we weren't yelling and screaming parked on Sehome Hill.Besides,'* Ness concluded, "They don't have jurisdiction on state property* anyway." "HEY, ISN'T THAT the guy month . . . " A policeman's lot is who gave me that ticket last not a happy one—ask anypolice* man. One coed seems to like the cops though. She said: "I ihinjt that Mfcade haired one that has the downtown beat Is really cute!" ---------- Collegian - 1963 February 8 - Page 2 ---------- PAGE TWO THE COLLEGIAN FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1963 A small book found in 1801 near the ruinsof Halgaspargov, Russia prove conclusively that the Russians were the first to invent Walt Disney.THE THREE Jolly Coachmen : COFFEE HOUSE ; presents This Friday Night, February 8 'THECLANSMEN' FOLK SINGING TRIO f r om Vancouver, B.

If you're headed for a certain party tomorrow night that just may be the case. It seemsthat a few individuals on campus are tired of dancing to records, so they're bringing in their own band toswing to. A group of left-wing free-thinkers have contracted to bring the Mystics of Seattle to a privateparty.

Of the 1,100students in the freshman class only about 40 of them attended, and in a recent election of the freshmanclass representative only 148 freshmen voted. The senior class has asked the freshmen to handle theirspring activities this year in the hope that it will become traditional here at Western.

"The Humanities program and the GeneralScience program are very good," Dean Chatland said, "I find myself in complete agreement with thissort of thing, but I am sure I should be happier if students took more advantage of some of them and ofthe many cultural things on campus. The students could gain more than they now are." The position ofAcademic Dean is a new one. Dean Chatland, in this position, will be principally concerned with affairs of the staff,, the curriculum, and the budget. He will teach an honors colloquium and math class nextquarter i Dean Chatland gave this reason for the creation of the new position: "The school is nowexpanding to the place where Academic Dean or Dean of Instruction became necessary. Thereare enough things going on to make the.coordination of the curricula necessary," he said. DeanChatland has a rich background in academic circles as well as in "private industry. He received hisundergraduate degree at McMasters University in Hamilton, Ontario. He attended the University ofChicago and taught on the staff of Montana State University and Ohio State ' University. He was Dean ofthe ' College and later Dean of Faculty and academic vice president at ;Montana and also served in theelectronic defense laboratory for Sylvania. • I think that what most impresses me is the vitality ofthe college," Dean Chatland said, "and •the enthusiasm pervading the .staff." • - He chuckled:"Students are nice people.

A delegationheaded by College President James L. Jarrett went to Olympia last week to make one final plea for an increase in Governor Rosellini's (Democrat- Wash.) suggested $8.8 million operating budget forWestern. Jarrett's committee ended up cutting $1.4 million from their proposal and asked for aconservative increase of $233,400 to Rosellini's $8.8 million recommendation. The $233,400 did notcover salary increases for faculty members. At this point the buck passing began. Senators Fred Dore (Democrat chairman of the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee) and Frank Foley (Democratchairman of the Ways and Means Committee) both suggested that Western up its student fees to payfor the faculty pay raises. Jarrett stated that this increase would work a hardship on students, many ofwhom, he said, "Come from very modest homes." As the minutes wore on it seems that Dr. Jarrett'sattitude toward upping student fees might have taken on a few new twists. In a later statement hedeclined to say whether the College would support an increase in tuition if this were the only way toget more money. "This would be a legislative decision," he said. Tuesday Senator Dore said that anincrease of $20 a year in student fees would add $80;000 to the biennium. With this suggestion, in mindJarret said he was bothered by the principle of raising student tuition to supply monies for somethingthe. students have never had to pay for in the past. Perhaps in a lighter vein, Jarret made this comment:"If fees were raised to pay operating costs, the solution to college budget requests in the future wouldbecome a simple one. If you're going to provide more money you simply raise the fees." Perhaps thiscomment was made in a lighter vein, and perhaps not. We would tend to think not. Student tuition feeslook like they may get a good swift boost in the near future. With all this administrative-legislativewrangling-it seems that the students, the people who will have to dig deep, have been left out of thepicture once again, but after all, what's a college for?—Richard F. Simmons. questions need answersBv Dick Simmons The valiant Collegian has exposed graft, corruption, and crime in student government,but now, student government is exposing itself—necking!I!

The high attendance at last week's "Sex on Campus" discussion panel provesconclusively that Western students are definitely interested in panel discussions. REWARD President Jarrett has agreed to hold a press conference two weeks from now. Although the conference last Quarter was aborted through lack of attendance, he is going to try again. The coffee shop solons will get another chance to prove that they have the right to question the administration. The conferences have beenpoular for at least three years. It seems that at one time students were interested in finding out what their "custodians" were doing for them. This time there is no excuse for students not to attend as theirpocketbooks will be the issue of the day. President Jarrett and his fellow lobbyists are jockeying forposition on the road to Mount Olympus. Money has to come from someplace to pay for the regulation ofthis institution. Where will that money come from? Governor Rosellini saw that the higher educationallotment was a good nest in which to drop his political bombshell, and it is clear that the Legislatureisn't planning to be much more generous in their action. Will the funds come from your pockets,students? Will the' Legislature decide to raise the tuition at this institution? Almost a decade ago the subject for debate was whether there would be a tuition fee at all. These are questions to ask Dr.Jarrett. He pulls the strings. He knows the mood and temper of our representatives of the Legislature. He should be able to give an informative answer. Students now have a chance to directly pose thesequestions to him. Will you take this opportunity? —Noel V. Bourasaw. Letters GIBBS TOO GLIBEditor, The Collegian: I gather that Mr. Gibbs has not read the Fifth Amendment recently. It containsmore than the self-incrimination clause. Which part of it does he propose to change? Our right to trial by jury? Our right not to be tried twice for the same "offense? Our right not to be compelled in a criminalcase to be a witness against ourselves, thus making it lawfully necessary for the plaintiff to gatherevidence proving-us guilty? Our right to due process of law? Or our right for just compensation whenour private property is taken for public use? "All" of these things are guaranteed in the FifthAmendment, and all of them are important differences between our laws and those of a totalitarianstate. Mr, Gi.bb$ feels our country can't withstand Communism; that we must impose disability orsubmit to it.: I feel that if we do either, we destroy our way of life. If we exchange freedoms for lawiwhich bring subjugation along with false "security" then we will have no need to withstand Communism — we will be indistinguishable from it. Only our language and two oceans will differentiate us.Besides, Mr. Gibbs, it is interpretation which makes any law what it is. The Weimar constitutionwas praised as the world's most democratic — Hitler never changed a word of it from 1933 to 1945. Iwould shudder for America if your views were represented on a judge's bench. MARY FARRELLDISTRESSED PROFS Editor, The Collegian: We read with distress that we are alleged to "Bring Classto Soc-Anthro," according to a headline in the Collegian of Feb. 1, and find it difficult to discoverjustification for the implication of the remark. If it is meant that we have brought a class of politicalsociology, a class in race relations, a class in sociological theory to the department, this could havebeen evident from perusal of the department's course offerings. But we don't think this was meantbecause some of these classes occurred before we assumed our visiting lectureships. If it is meant we brought "high" class to the department, the only common factor between £arstens, a South African anthropologist, and Tiger, a Canadian sociologist, is their association with "commonwealth"educational systems. Possibly, there is the dreary old implication that anything British-like is good,and that poor Americans cannot possibly be as "classy" as those associated with the Anglo-Philicmystique. In which case, a nation gets the inferiority complex it deserves. If, finally, it is meant webrought "low class to the department, then we are offended, and are prepared to sue the Collegianfor defamation of character.

It seems that two-thirds of the Edens girls are engaging in thispractice at the present time." The Collegian has decided to take a definite stand on this highlycontroversial campus issue.

Travel in Europe. India-China: The Giants RiseBy Doug Moser The India-China border dispute now has a history of several years. The most recentepisode, in which massive Chinese forces launched an attack against India, manifests symptoms otherthan those previously displayed. Until this attack the incidents along the remote border among theHimalayas could be viewed as nothing more than the stirring of Chinese Nationalism. China wasattempting to fill out the traditional borders that had existed prior to European domination in the 19th andearly 20th Centuries. . _ • • • . . The large-scale operations which took place last fall betweenIndian and Chinese troops is symptomatic of another struggle—a power struggle between two awakening giants for; the leadership of the uncommitted, developing nations. Each country is attempting to raise its standard of, living and each has similar problems. China is attempting to reach a solution throughmassive mobilization of human, as well as material, resources in a rigidly controlled government plan.India, on the other hand, proposes to alleviate her economic plight by a combined operation ofgovernment planning arid private" investment; maintaining at the same time, as much'as possible;democratic processes of government. Added to: the power, struggle, then, is a disparity of ideologicalbeliefs. If what is published by the two countries, in terms of economic growth, can be believed, Indiahas made greater progress and will continue to make greater progress provided she is able to maintainher rate of investment...' • - ; • • • The Chinese aggression has, in this writer's opinion,: twoobjectives: First, to show up Indian militarily and to regain, prestige lost in the economic race; andsecond, to force India to invest in a larger military establishment to decrease the funds available forinvestment in capital goods. . ... The efficacy of these objectives is to be seriously .questioned,considering the attitude of those countries which China is hoping to impress. In the first place, the smallcountries are none too secure and tend to frown on aggression because of their recent experiences withimperialism. Secondly, aggressive action directed toward one country by another strikes too close tohome—they could be next. The second objective, depletion of the Indian budget may be serving itspurpose, but it is also having adverse effects on the Chinese budget. And China does not have anextensive source of foreign aid as does India. * • • On the whole, then. China's recent invasion ofIndian territorial integrity has not been as successful- as perhaps the Chinese leaders had hoped.Although the Indians lost the hattle they may have won the "war." There might be some question as towhether it could be called a war and there is some doubt as to whether or not the war is ended. This writer feels that both nations are in favor of a settlement because of the drain on national resources whichcould be put to better use elsewhere. However, this will not be the last clash between the two countries.Indeed, it is probably only one of many which will suddenly explode onto the front pages of the world'snewspapers—each a manifestation of the continuing struggle for power and ideological supremacy.

Lindsay, a professor of physics, introduced in his "Faculty Speaks" address recently. Dr.Lidsay spoke in defense of the sciences, which in his estimation are not stressed nearly enough. "Ithink the introduction of a general science program in the elementary and secondary school systemswould give the students an opportunity to evaluate the importance of the sciences for themselves."Lindsay commented. "Right now, the science program is so limited at this level that students are notable to develop an understanding of the course. "This science deficiency problem is noticed whenstudents are required to take science courses as a part of the general education curriculum in college."Presently here at Western one-third of the students in physical science (General Education 101) have taken high school phys- THE BELLINGHAM: NATIONAL BANK ["Locally Owned and Operated lt;Since 1904" ICORNWALL HOLLY! Drive-In Office at 1605 Cornwall Ave. Member F.D.I.C. ics, andone-third have taken high school chemistry. There are 10 per cent of the students in the program thathave completed both physics and chemistry. However, one-third of the students in the General Ed.101 classes have not been introduced to either of these courses in high school," Lindsey pointed out."This limited enrollment of students in the advanced physics and chemistry programs is caused by alack of stimulation of interest in these courses in pre-college years. There has been one physics majorat Western in the past three years of the program," he commented. Dr. Lindsay explained that manypeople feel there is too much emphasis placed on the science program in the elementary and highschool years, but he felt that figures like these would refute their opinion. Many students feel that thesciences hold very little significance as-a part of their total personality. Science, these people feel,has no value in their future life. "This is an age of science, and the educated man must have a generalknowledge of science to understand the objectives of a scientific society," Dr. Lindsay remarked. "Withthe government spending $25 billion annually on the physical science program, every person shouldhave an understanding of the field in which this money is being spent," he added. "It is important thatstudents know of the basic laws of the universe, for they are present and important to all members ofsociety," said Lindsay. \\ The Scene Around Us: It's A Looney Place, That KPUG" (First In A Series) , The sun is still nestled far beyond the scope of morning..

"That damned be-bop music is makin' my cows go dry," is followed by the timid wordsof a 12-year-old sweetheart who mumbles, "I luv you," before the connection is broken. In the period of one five-hour shift, a disc jockey is stormed with requests for the temperature, time, "Hey Paula," and the winner of the 1949 Kentucky Derby. Questions such as, "What's your favorite lights the morninghours for KPUG listeners. Gary's daybreak antics include "non-offensive words" as a regular feature. Station visitors can, on occas-sion, glimpse Gary's profile surrounded by pale wisps of stale pipesmoke. (It is advisable to catch this scene before 7 a. m., since Gary is out of tobacco by 7:15.) By 10a. m., a change of ash trays matches a change of D-J's as Dave Hall's liquid tones indicate a four-hour session of "Music to Dust By" for Bellingham. An eight-year man, he carries with him the title ofprogram director. The Danny "Who-Ha" Holiday classic spins, into existence each afternoon.

Bills Due There are currently three bills pending before the State Legislature. Two ofthem concern fees and tuition for state colleges and the third relates the introduction of the mastersprogram into the curriculum. Senate Bill No. 208 is concerned with the levying of fees and tuition inthe state colleges. I_ states that the Board of Trustees in each of the colleges will charge and collectfrom each full-time student a tuition fee of no less than $15 and incidental fees of no less than $50 andno more than $77. The revenue from these fees will be used to finance some of the College's generaloperating expenses.

Book Bandits Get Bound By Loren Fiiiley Curses, said the Campus Culprit, foiled again.You can't; even steal from the library these days. Yes, it appears that library thieves have really beenfoiled, according to the latest inventory released by librarian Mildred Herrick. The inventory, althoughincomplete, shows that book thefts have gone down about 80 per cent in the last three years. .Thisdrastic reduction seems to be due to the checking desks, which were installed in 1959. It was decidedat that time that the desks were necessary, since the library rwas steadily losing more each'year. rThechecking system has gone a .long way toward alleviating the problem, but William Scott, circulationlibrarian, believes that it; still has its limitations. ]'We can prevent the forgetful student or the naive thief,"he claimed "But if someone really Wants a book there is nothing we can do to prevent it." He cited open stacks and rooms with open windows as factors which make it, very difficult to prevent deliberate thefts. The fault lies with student attitudes, according to reference librarian Herbert Hearsey. "There is afeeling of paternalism toward the state," he said. "They think that what belongs to the state belongs to them. This rationalizes the whole thing." Both Scott and Hearsey agreed that the final solution lies with the student. "The answer is policing on the part of the student," Scott said. "He should maintain his own honesty and integrity and also feel the responsibility to turn in people he knows are guilty."

During that time Mr. Fowler served the Lewiston Normal in various important capacities. After graduating from Princeton in 1908, with an A. B. degree, Mr. Fowler became assistant in the English department at Lewiston. Five years later he was made chairman of the department of English and Literature, and succeeded in making it one of the finest departments in the school. For several years he was Dean of Men, and the boys called their dormitory "Fowler Hall" in recognition of his work for the men of the school. Throughout his career, Mr. Fowler has always been an advocate of student activities.

In recognition of these services the school annual of last year, and the August 9 issue of the school weekly were dedicated to him. Mr. Fowler has been active in affairs not directly concerning the Lewiston Normal. Besides being an active Rotar-ian and a real booster, he has been chairman of several committees of the Idaho State Teacher's association, managing editor of the "Idaho Teacher," one of the first presidents of the Inland Empire Council of Teachers of English. .

Fowler, new instructor in the English department, addressed the student body at assembly Tuesday of this week. Mr. Fowler gave an interesting and inspiring talk on the qualities of a successful teacher. First in importance, according to Mr. Fowier are health, boundless energy, and a strong Christian character. Next in value he placed personality. Every teacher must be sincere, must have confidence in his own ability, and be able to sympathize with and understand those about him. He should at all times show all the marks of good breeding in his consideration for others. A pleasing and forceful voice is also a great asset to a strong personality and should ~be cultivated. Mr. Fowler also listed curiosity about books, people, methods and the world at large, as well as adaptability to the community in which one is teaching, the school, and to the individual pupils therein, as very necessary qualities. B. S.*N. S. The Only One. They sat on the sofa, he and she. The lights were turned low. They gazed into each other's eyes with perfect contentment. He arranged his necktie for the twentieth time and queried, "Do you love me, Maudie V" "Uh-huh, I think so." "I knew you did—I love you too, Maudie—You're the only girl for me." She, hesitatingly: "Did you ever love any other girl?" "No, Maudie—you are the first." "Oh, John. I knew it! I love you more than ever,' She flushed with pleasure, raised her chin, and looked at him through long lashes. He took two cigars from his vest pocket, laid them on the table, and started to take her in his arms. She sobbed, "All men are liars," and left the room.

Spurts of Sapience. .The man who speaks kindly and reverently about his mother is not a bad man; but the man who speaks unkindly and irreverently about anybody's mother is not a good man. When children yell at their parents or each other, they have been yelled at by their parents and each other. If the smile be constant, it's wearer isn't. No man who hasn't something to conceal ever complains that he is misunderstood. There are two classes of children every mother knows: Model children and her own. No amount of argument or explanation will reconcile sweet milk and vinegar or justify their commingling. The friend to whom you have too often to explain is not a true friend or you yourself are not true. The finest companionship is that to which constant conversation and mutual entertainment are wholly unnecessary. —STRICKLAND GILLJLIAN. ---------- Weekly Messenger - 1923 October 26 - Page 6 ---------- 6 BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1923.

It isn't fair to carry yesterday's sins over to today and demand a new repentance of them, another immersion in sackcloth and ashes. That makes a child feel that having offended once he has offended for all the time and that there is no use of trying again. "Now be sure that today you come straight home.-' "Yes." "Yes! That's what you said yesterday and what did you r!o? Went over to the ball field and played until dark night. And I told you the last thing to come straight home and you said 'yes' and that's all it amounted to. Never got home until dark night!" Now the youngster had broken bounds the night before and had been soundly berated for doing it. This was another day and he ought to have been a lowed to feel that it was a new day with new opportunities for making good. But no. He is started with the notion that no matter how good his intentions, no matter how strong his promises, he is going to go wrong again. Yesterday's offence is given new life and strength for today's mistake. When I was a boy in the public schools we used to have slates. They had bright red flannel bin.lings and laced with cord and boaste a rubber knob at each corner if they were very stylish. I had trouble with long division. I'd make a mistake over and over and smear my slate until it was a gray miss. Still I couldn't get the right answer and at last the teacher would say: "Let's take a new slate. A brand, speedy, new one from the closet. Now we'll have a new pencil.out of the box. I'll write it dovn for you. There now! It'll come riyht now. See if it doesn't!" Of course it came right. The shinny new slate; the teacher's smile, and, the fresh start cleared my brain and the answer came every time. Don't ho'd post mortems. Let the dead lie. When a child makes a mistake take down a new slate for him. Change his suit. Put on a new tie. Give h"m his breakfast on the porch. Change his seat in the class-room. Do something that will symbolize the new slate, and it will work where the carping, harping, day-before-yesterday recitil will work disasters. The old teacher I spoke of had this sentence written on the board very often: "Every day is a fresh beginning: e.ery hour is the world made new." B. S. N. S. Isles are registered in higher institutions in this country. A proposal to grant women full membership and degrees at Cambridge University has been rejected by the British House of Commons.

Klickitat county derived its name from a tribe of Indians that occupied the country before the advent of the white man. Their home at one time was near the western slope of the Rocky mountains, but they were driven westward by the Cayuses, a war-like Indian tribe.

No other country in the world grows roses to such perfection as in Persia, and in no other country is it prized so highly as it is by the natives. Angora is no longer famous solely for its cats and goats. It has a greater world-wide significance today, that of being the capital of the reconstructed Turkish government and the seat therefor of the most picturesque of all contemporary experiments in democracy. Sleepy Hollow church, made famous by Washington Irving, recently celebrated its 225th anniversary.

As long as this column is headed "Student Opinions" we are allowed to have more than one aren't we? I have two opinions on two everyday occurences in our school, which, to say the least are not very complimentary to those concerned. Why is it, when there is so much room at their disposal, that the circulation department of the Messenger pile the papers in one heap in a corner of the landing and leave them to their fate? Or, perhaps, to the fate of the students? The battling mob which surrounds the corner every Friday noon should be an eye sore to any respectable instution of higher learning. What about it? Can't we have the distributing center spread over more surface and perhaps elevated a little out of the reach of human feet? Another thing. It's all right to be anxious to get to class but why not wait a minute after the first bell and give the poor sufferers on the other side of the door a chance to get out, before you go in ? Don't you know it stands to reason that they are much more anxious to leave than you could be to get in? Also it might happen that some poor pedestrian might wish to continue down the hall through the mob in the corridors around said doors. To say the least he must take his life in his hands, and if by any chance he happens to be in a hurry, it is advised by one who knows, to detour around the building and come in the other way. It is safer, and much more quickly done. What is the matter with our Board of Control? Let's get up-to-date and have a traffic squad! Yours for co-operation, —I. Emma Krab. ShraUtittg ripral -B. S. N. S. Small Crowd. There are not very many out tonight. Well, there were not very many out at my meeting at Skudunk last night. But J talked to it, just the same. I pointed my finger at it and said: "I am afraid, my friend, that you are not listening to me." And it crossed i ts legs and said: "I'm not a friend of yours, and I'm not here to listen. I'm waiting to put out the lights and lock the hall." Remarks From Great Men. A pound of pluck is worth a ton of luck. Silence is less injurious than a weak reply. When men are most sure and arrogant they commonly are the most mistaken. Live for something, have a purpose, and that purpose keep in view. He who reigns within himself, and rules passion, desires and feai-s, is more than a king. The most difficult thing in life is to know yourself. Politeness goes far and costs nothing. Sees thou a man diligent in his business? He shall stand before kings. Success is the result of mental attitude, and the right mental attitude will bring you success in everything you undertake.

B. S. N. S. FISHES.IN FAVOR OF JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL Declaring himself in favor of junior high schools, C. H. Fisher, president of the Bellingham Normal, addressed fifteen members of the Superintendents' Supervisors' and Principals' League of the city, at the Pheasant Tea rooms yesterday evening. "Many originally called junior high schools were wrongly named," President Fisher said. He pointed out advantages to be gained by a proper organization of this kind, including the matter of discipline, courses of study, etc.. "The junior high school studies should be less technical than the senior high courses and in this way would be more interesting to the students," the speaker said. "Subjects that I believe should be taught in a junior high school are academic, industrial arts and commercial work, rather for vocational guidance than to train for a special trade or life work." President Fisher declared in conclusion that the junior high school should have an enriched curriculum with a different attack and teach citizenship to the growing boys and girls. B. S. N".

CITY TEACHERS NOT LIKELY TO ASK FOR INCREASE IN SALARIES No attempt will be made this year by members of the City Teachers' league to secure a raise in salaries, according to the sentiment of that organization expressed by President W. J. Rice in an vaddress yesterday afternoon at Whatcom high school. About 175 educators, members of the league, were present. Outstanding features of the meeting included the re-election of Mr. Rice as president, the election of Miss Resmeyer, an instructor at Whatcom high school, as secretary and an address by D. E Wiedman, supernitendent of city schools, on the proposed junior high schools plan. Presiding at the meeting, Mr. Rice first reported on the past year's accomplishments of the League. He told of the organization's participation in the 30-10 campaign, the social activities of the League, the salary campaign which brought about an adjustment in wages for the teachers and the work accomplished in the matter of the Japanese relief fund. •'Owing to the fact that the school board acted as generously as the circumstances seemed to warrant last spring, the matter of increased salaries this year will not be taken up by the League," Mr. Rice said. "The League will co-operate with the board in its endeavors to relieve the present congested condition at the various schools and help in every way possible to further the board's po-posed building progam." Superintendent Wiedman addressed the meeting regarding ihe board's proposed building program. "The junior high school idea is new in the West," the superintendent said, "but is not in the East. The junior and senior high school plan generally results from the necessity caused by crowded conditions similar to those faced in Bellingham." Superintendent Wiedman told of the $2,500,000 voted at Tacoma last spring to build seven junior high schools. "Discipline problems can better be handled in junior high schools," he continued. "This is accomplished because children of equal development are thrown together in the junior buildings." The sentiment expressed by the teachers present at the meeting appeared to unanimously support the proposed junior and senior high school plan now being considered by the board of education. Alumni Nat\e*Bs 1 One of the features of the W. E. A. meeting at Seattle this week is a banquet which is to be served to the Alumni of the B. S. N. S. on Thursday evening, October 25. W. T.

Organized only a year ago, the Normal has become known throughout the state for its musical powers. The State Music Teacher's convention held in Bellingham, June, 1923, gave the Quartet an able chance to prove its worth. They have the distinction of being the first musical club to place music on the same basis as other school activities, in recognition of which President Waldo presented them with the official student body letter in the form of a gold "W." The quartet's first rehearsal was Monday afternoon and after working with them, Miss Belton promised splendid results. The following girls have been selected for the Normal Quartet: Edna Griffin Marian Warner Florence Lucas Pauline Lindsley All of them are also members of the Clef club.

The new plan for handling absences and excuses went into effect on Monday, October 15th. Daily reports of absences are made by each member of the faculty, and these reports are turned into the office, compiled alphabetically, and handed to the committee at the close of each day. ••.••.• All excuses should be turned in immediately after students return. . They may fill out the blanks provided in the Dean's office and leave them in the file. The committee meets on Tuesdays at two o'clock and passes upon all excuses handed in to date. It is made up of a chairman, Adele M. Jones, and N. W. Heckman, May Meade, Grace Headrick, W. J. Marquis. The report of unexcused absences is sent to the office of the registrar, where they are checked against the student; a copy of this report is also posted on the bulletin board, and in case any student feels that his excuse should have been accepted, he is at liberty to report to the committee at the hours stated above. B. S. N. S. LIBRARY. The Bellingham State Normal school library is very well equipped. The periodical room in the rear of the main library contains bound volumes some of which bear the date of 1832. The magazines of recent date ai-e filed away on the shelves. There is no dearth of reading matter. Besides the daily papers, there are weekly magazines, and journals on practically all lines of professions. Among them are the Washington Educational Journal, published in our state, and other educational journals published in various parts of the country. There are two directories at the entrance giving a list of all the current periodicals. There are between forty and fifty monthly and weekly magazines, journals on geography, forestry, music, art, nature study, sociology, economics and many other subjects. Some of the leading educators contribute articles to these magazines. By making good use of the library students can get acquainted with the best periodicals for teachers and homes. The Junior library is located on the third floor of the Training school. This library contains 300 volumes. Teachers write to the librarian for advice as to the selection of books for a school library. During the quarter or the year, students have the opportunity to study the books and the arrangement of junior literature upon the shelves. During the course in library methods children are brought up to the library and are taught to select references. This library is managed by five students who devote some time to this work each day. Hence this library is for the students as well as the children in the training schools. Miss Catherine Montgomery, of the faculty, has received a letter from Miss Faye Bruneau, an Alumna of the Normal school, who is teaching at Iquique, Chile. She gives an interesting account of her work and of the earthquakes which have occurred recently in the neighborhood of Iquique. Some extracts from her letter follow: "Before I forget I should tell you about how the Chilian earthquakes affected us here. About six months ago there were several earthquakes south of here, especially violent in a town called Copiapo. We felt a couple of slight tremblings and nothing more. There were also disturbances at sea, which made the water come inland a way in some places south of here (Auto fagasta and Coquimbo). Here the sea was very high and rough and folks were afraid it was coming in here, too. In 1868 this city was completely destroyed in that way. One night, (Nov. 15) someone brought word to the mayor that a telegram from Valparaiso had come saying that there had been an earthquake at sea and tht the sea was going out and would come back in and cover Iquique in a few hours. The mayor had the police force notify everyone in town about 11:30 p. m. We all got up, dressed and prepared small packages to carry off with us to the mountainside, where we were going to run as soon as the sea started to go out. We waited until 4 p. m. and nothing happened. It later developed that the alarm had been false and that no telegram had been received. Many houses, left deserted by people who ran to the mountain were robbed and it is thought that perhaps the alarm was given by persons who wanted to do thife very thing. i "There have been many earthquakes since, but we never feel more than a slight shake, as if a heavy auto-truck were passing near the house and making it tremble. The sound also, a low rumble, is like that the wheels of a heavy vehicle would make. "My school work is progressing as well as could be expected, considering, my limitations as a teacher. I seems to have most trouble in the teaching of English reading. First, we review the Winston Primer; then we read part of the Winston I, which is our basal reader. I have just begun the Beacon First eRad-er. I have two divisions; one which was here in kindegarten last year and one composed of children who know no English and who are too large for kindegarten. I took this last group through the Winston Primer and have just begun the Winston I with them. I am more satisfied with what they have accomplished than with the work of the first division. It is hard to have to write all words for drill review and new words on the board; then erase them and write them again the next day. Another thing—when the pupils try to tell a story they try to tell it word for word according to the book." —B. S. N. S. Recipe for Flunks.

Veto Franchise By MIKE WILLIAMS Collegian Managing Editor - A S Pr ^ d e ^ R a ^ M n - r o exercised for t h e first time Monday his constitutional power to veto, w h enhe r e t u r n e d to t h e Legislat u r e a bill t h e y h a d passed d u r i n g t h e l a s t session, wint e r q u a r t e r. THE BILL, sponsored by Orest Kruhlak, then the temporay Executive Vice-President,proposed to abolish all on campus preference polls before student elections. It was passed by a two-thirds vote of the legislators. At that time Munro told the Collegian he thought the measure was "sourgrapes" as several of the isolons voted in favor of the bill supported a presidential candidate who wonin the nominating convention but lost the Helmsman poll and the election. However, the bill is not deadyet. Program' Vice-President Tony Tinsley questioned the constitutional legality of the presidentvetoing a bill passed in one session and returning it to the board in a subsequent session. TINSLEYPOINTED out that foiir members'of last term's Legislature (three who voted in favor of the bill) are nolonger on it. The solons voted to refer the problem to the Judiciary Committee (a campus SupremeCourt) for a.decision. Chief Justice of the Court is Joel Lamphear. The two other justices are Jim Thorns-bury and Ron Hendricks. If the veto is allowed, the Legislature may still overrule it by a two thirdsmajority when the bill is returned to them. In other Legislative action Legislator Clark Drummond won a partial victory when his motion to suspend the rules of the Legislature to allow the AMS-AWS See'VETO' Page 2 on campus, hanging onto protest - petitions signed by over 3,000 of Western's 4,100students, are optimistic tor day and many feel the bill will be killed in the House. v AS President RalphMunro will rush the petitions directly to Governor Daniel J. Evans in jthe event the bill .passes, in thehopes that2 he will veto the measure. Munro and. Executive Vice President Dean Foster garnered thesignatures after they learned that Senate Bill 552 proposed by State Senator Foley would raise sharply"Western's tuition. ' FOLEY'S BILL would boost instate tuition to $88 per quarter for an increase of 14per cent and out-of-state tuition to $157 per quarter, or a $47 increase. • The vast majority of thestudents, including the Bellingham Herald, feel that the suggested tuition increase would be aserious burden for many students. Munro drove to Olympia Monday morning to show the petit-tions to several state representatives, but did not leave them. He also sought support from the Universityof Washington and a campus refrom group took heed and circulated petitions. "I strongly feel that thisbill would force, many students attending Western now to drop out because of the additionalfinancial burden," Munro said. Assistant to the President, Harold A. Goltz, told the Collegian Editoron assignment in Olympia that 40 per .cent of all students who have dropped from Western recentlyhave attributed financial problems as a contributing factor. THE COUNCIL of Presidents, composed ofthe college presidents in the state, voted earlier this week to request the Legislature not to raisetuitions "more than what would be necessary." The bill is the second piece of legislation this sessionwhich will critically affect Western's operating procedure. Earlier this year, the solons passed formerGovernor Albert Rosellini's budget request for Western's operating capital—a See 'TUITION' Page 12Snow Fun -See p 8-9 ---------- Collegian - 1965 April 9 - Page 2 ---------- PAGE TWO THE COLLEGIAN FRIDAY, APRIL 9, 1965 NSA Confab Here "Campus opposition to NSA"will be the theme of t h e National Students Association spring regional conference which will be heldMay 7-12 here at Western. Opposition and criticism of NSA will be discussed as representatives fromthe 12 member schools of the Great Northwest Region of NSA confer to examine all reasons for theexistence of the national organization. "We are hoping to give the subject a positive emphasis," ASExecutive Vice President Dean Foster told the University of Washington newspaper, The Daily."We shall provide a format against which both NSA benefits and the issues leading to anti- NSA opinioncan be critically evaluated," he added. FOSTER EXPLAINED that one criticism of the NSA is that it,rather than concentrating on students in the college, has urged students to get involved withactivities outside the academic world. The conference will also entail a detailed discussion of the new charter of the International Students' Congress, of which NSA is a member. This will include adiscussion of the conflict between the ISC and the pro-communist International Union of Students,according to Foster. "Practically all countries with universities," Foster continued, "have formedunions which align with one of these two international unions. "The Communist Party gives directsupport to the IUS whereas the free countries haven't adequately financed the ISC. However, theNSA has played a big part in holding the organization together." A special session will concern studentmovements in Latin America, the Far East, Africa and Asia. This will involve a discussion of the NSA's role in international student movements. The pros and cons of the NSA's international significancecover one of the most important issues of NSA and yet this is one area on which student governmentshave the least information, Foster explained. The conference discussion is designed to correct this tosome extent. THE ROLE of NSA in academic affairs will be discussed when the leader of studentjprotest movements, the Campus Reform Movement, discusses the recent student activity at Berkeleyand the increasing student opposition toward administrative dictatorship of the University ofWashington. Although there is no such problem at Western, the topic is-of vital concern to the NSA, Foster explained. Service Fraternity Has Ambitious Plans For Spring Alpha Phi Omega, West ern'smale service fraternity, is in full swing with spring quarter, according to APO President DonGullickson. One service project is already under way and others are forthcoming, Gullickson saidlast week. VETO' (Continued from page 1) presidents-elect full speaking privileges on the Board waspassed. Minutes, before, ..Drummond's motion for the AMS-AWS presidents- elect to take non-voting seats on the board was defeated. As it now stands the two presidents- elect, Neal Suckerman andSherry Seibold, have full speaking privileges but must sit on the sideline galleries. THE BOARDappointed James Hampson, senior Political Science major, to fill Orest Kruhlak's chair on theLegislature. Kruhlak graduated winter quarter. Also appointed were the 1965 Homecoming Co-chairmen,Dick Marshall and Beverly Smith. Two resolutions were dealt with Monday. The first concerning theproposed tuition increase, passed by the Public Affairs Commission and was 'presented to Solons foraproval. It was passed unanimously by the board that the.Associated Student request the statelegislature not to levy additional fees upon the students at Western, Eastern and Central WashingtonState Colleges. THE RESOLUTIONS stated that a fee increase would deprive "deserving residentsof-the State of Washington of a college education." Phyllis Carr read a resolution WesternReceives$5,600 Grant Western's Speech Department has received a Health, Education and Welfare Grant of$5,600 for the education of a graduate student as a speech or hearing therapist, announced Dr.Sene Carlile, SpeechDepartment Chairman. The grant is part of the federal program started last year to encourage graduates to pursue a masters degree in the field of therapy. Western's grant of $11,600 last year was received by David Spaulding and Kathy Andreas. Dr. Carlile explained that the grants aremuch harder to obtain this year than last. "Western is one of the few non-state universities to receive a grant this year Carlile commented. Applications for the grant are now being sought. asking for theAssociated Students to protest "the actions of the^ library as to the Associated Students''.request toallow the hours to be extended" the weekend before finals week. Last term Dr. Howard McGaw, headof the library^said it"was a "financial impossibility" to remain open extra hours on that weekend,according to the resolution. The resolution was tabled for a week until McGaw's reasons for refusing to keep the library open can be explored.

Miss Ayers is a blind student at Western. Gullickson said that APO hopes to sponsor a fishing derby for thehandicapped children of Whatcom County and they also plan on helping at work parties to clean upsome of the Boy Scout camps in the state. Since APO was organized at Western fall quarter it hasbeen involved in many projects. "We have carried out more service projects than any national chapterin Washington," Gullickson claimed. The local chapter has not yet received a national charter.National chapters are located at the University of Washington, Pacific Lutheran University, SeattleUniversity and several other schools throughout the state. APO SPONSORED an entry in theHomecoming Parade fall term and sponsored the Ugly Man Contest in conjunction with World UniversityService Week winter quarter. The night before the November elections the members conducted adoor-to-door campaign with Sigma Tau Alpha, Rainbow Girls Honorary, to urge people to vote. There are 17 members in the Western chapter, accdrding to Gullickson. He hopes to reach the quota of 25 thisquarter so the chapter will become eligible for a national .charter. To join, an applicant must be a malestudent at Western with a 2.0 GPA. They should have had some experience in the InternationalScouting Movement. However, Gullickson said that this is not a necessity as an applicant can join the Scouting movement by paying an extra dollar. The membership fee is $14. We've got it!

Education becomes semi-private, notpublic when students are denied entrance to state colleges for lack of money. If the State Legislaturepasses Senate Bill 552, then Washington will be .well on the road to just such a system for highereducation. Forty per cent of those students who have dropped out of Western recently indicated thatlack of sufficient funds was a contributing factor. This is significant enough to assume that it isexpensive enough already to obtain a state college education. If SB 552 gets the nod, conditions will begrossly worse than what prevails. In-state students will be forking over $88 instead of $77 and worse yet,out-of- state students will have to dig down for $157 per quarter instead of $100. It seems safe enough to say that some students will not be able to raise the dough. State education, along with statehighways, mental institutions, and the like are supposed to be supported by the new collegian Today'sCollegian is the product of a new editor and a relatively green staff •—but it represents a new trend.We are put to improve it in every way; better photos, more coverage. We are aware that students havebeen somewhat displeased with the paper in the past, but now we begin anew. With .. thank you, mr.farmer When a Negro mounts the stage these days it most likely ain't to warble a few strains of SwaneeRiver to the rhythmic plinking of a banjo—the man wears a conservative suit and his talk can be put tomusic as "We Shall Overcome." Such a Negro visited Western's campus last weekend and theseveral hundred students and townspeople who pried themselves from their boobtubes Saturday nightto listen gave the man two standing ovations. For James Farmer, national director of the Congress ofRacial Equality (CORE), delivered what could only have been the most convincing argument on behalf ofthe current Civil Rights Revolution we have ever heard. Farmer is a rotund man, polished in speakingability, personable enough offstage. He is slimmer now than he used to be after taking the advice ofsome policemen who had to drag him and several hundred other demonstrators from the New York CityPavilion at the World's Fair this winter. He is a Negro who represents the kind of black man who is notgoing to say "yes suh" in the face of discrimination any more. His people are through acceptingmotions to sit in the back of the bus, they will ride in front like any-white man or sit down, stand in,march, boycott, or picket in protest. James Farmer deserves to be called mister. He is no stranger tothe terror of the American segregationist. Like the other Civil Right leader Martin Luther King Jr., Farmerdoes not stand back and tell or dictate what should fee the citizen's tax dollar. If this state had anadequate tax structure, SB 552 would have never been mentioned. We are sure that students at the state colleges would be willing to pay higher taxes now and in the future to support their education and theirson's and daughter's as well. It doesn't seem intelligent to ask young men and women to fork over moremoney at an age when they are having financial difficulties to begin with. AS President Ralph Munro,Executive Vice-President Dean Foster and the thousands of Westernites who signed those protestpetitions are to be congratulated for their perserverance. It seems hard to believe, but opposition toSenator Frank Foley's tuition bill is not a major topic of the day at the other two state colleges. Munro's"letters to legislators" idea might get the necessary result needed to show the solons in Olympia thatstudents at Western do come from nearly every county in the state and that they sincerely feel thatthe raise in tuition would be a difficult hardship. We urge you to get one of these cards and fill it out. The tuition raise proposal is a sham. It is an insult to higher education and it must be defeated. If it is allowed to pass, the precedent will be set arid the sky will be the limit for future Legislatures.— Stolpe. yourinterest, criticism and comment it will be a student newspaper worthy of your money.

He was once the object of a vastmanhunt in Louisiana in 1960 when state troopers with taped-over badges and nameplates combed thecountryside and openly confided, "If we find the nigger, we'll lynch him." Farmer, along with 200 otherNegrbs, sought refuge in a funeral home -where the troopers threatened to barge in if the group didn'tproduce Farmer. Using two funeral coaches, in true mid-twenties style, Farmer made a hasty get-a-~way. The first car was sent darting from the funeral parlor with a decoy. When the troopers roared after it,Farmer took off into the dark in the second car. The troopers didn't even have a warrant for his arrest.1 This doesn't sound like the America we know or would be proud of telling about abroad. Yet this isgoing on right now in Dixie where bombings, burnings, murders and terrorizing by the Ku KluxKlansmen is an everynight affair. Like James Farmer told his audience: "The thin line of neutrality is fastdiminishing." People are taking sides . . . one cannot be neutral in such a time. And how can one turn his face the other way when one-tenth. of his nation's, people, his neighbors, his fellow Americans are being discriminated against? President Kennedy favored this quote and we pass i t on to you: "Thehottest place in hell is reserved for those who in times of moral crisis retain their neutrality!" Thank you,Mr. Farmer for your visit to our campus. .—John R. Stolpe.

Students — won't you please keep your hondas on the roads? Western's hockey field last fall was in excellentcondition thanks to the meticulous care of Mr. Jordan and his groundsmen. Western's hockey team, too, was the best ever. A summer hockey workshop has been scheduled for students and teachers in theNorthwest. Tremendous interest has been evidenced and special arrangements have been made tobring an English hockey coach to our campus. This spring Western's girls will be playing lacrosse forthe first time. A good field is a prerequisite to a good program. Who wants to run up and down hillstrying to hit a hockey ball; who wants to watch their footing when leaping for a lacrosse ball?

KEN RIDDELL ASExecutive Vice Presidentelect QUESTIONS RIDDELL Editor, The Collegian: Last quarter the studentsof Western were subjected to the in-decisiveness of our student legislature with the many hiring andfirings of Miller and Riddell. The very controversial NSA coordinator, who was denounced for hisirresponsibility and incompetence, has once again exhibited his lack of regard for student government. Italso seems Mr, Riddell has little or no regard for the Western student body today. While defending his position as NSA co-ordina-tor, he caused considerable unrest in our student government. This quarterhe has dropped NSA completely, i would like to ask Mr. Riddell: "Was it worth it?". After conductingone of the most questionable campaigns Western has seen for many years, he won the vice presidency, undoubtedly realizing that he would not have the time to devote to the training required for this office. Ordoesn't Mr. Riddell need any more background in this field. I think it is very important that all electedofficers undergo the necessary orientation to their duties, and I would think Mr. Riddell would beparticularly interested in spring training period in order' to erase the label of "incompetent" and"irresponsible" that was suggested Winter quarter. The main purpose of haying ASB elections winterquarter is to allow the elected officers time to familiarize and orient themselves to the tasks they willsoon be undertaking.,-;I do not see how Mr. Riddell can'db this very well when he is not even inattendance -at-college' this quarter This lack of concern for the; student body of Western seemsunbecoming to' any student leader. It is unfortunate that the Western voters were not aware of thelack of regard with which Mr. Riddell accepted the office of V.P. when they cast their ballots. I would like a competent, well-informed person representing me in this important office and I do not feel Mr. Riddellcan give this type of leadership without the invaluable training period this spring. It is with this thoughtin mind that I urge the legislature to make provision in the constit-tional- by-laws requiring attendanceduring the in-training peri-cd for the elected officers.

Of course these people have the right to march in protest of something theydislike, but many of these marchers aren't aware of the present situation in Southeast Asia. Thecercumstances that have prevailed in Southeast Asia in the past year are and have been forcing the U.S. to stay in this area. The cause of Freedom and Democracy is at stake and the U. S. is unwantinglybut necessarily committed in this area. It has become necessary that we defend this area at all costs.President Johnson's solution for "defensive retaliation" is a proper step in the right direction, becausewe must repel Communist expansion on all fronts, especially this one: One may conclude thatthe peace of the world is at stake, and it must be defended at whatever costs .that prove necessary. . If these marchers were only aware of the proper- situation, their march would probably be against sucha revolting cause, rather than for. Some people take up the banner of the march, just to be part of the"crowd" and if a large part of the crowd becomes aware of the true crisis, I believe that the rest wouldtoo, unless otherwise already committed. (You have the power of the press and I believe you shoulduse that power to the best advantage.) LYLE WATKINSON U. S. History, Sedro Woolley High (ED.NOTE: We disagree with the marcher's motives too, but respect their right to protest peacefully.

Our classrooms are overcrowded. The problem is not a shortage of space, butof instructors. ( Free-flowing discussion, the exchange of ideas, is basic to an adequate collegeeducation. When classes expand to 25 or more students discussion becomes stifled, or non-existent. The Humanities program utilizes "discussion groups" which are a mockery to higher education. But it is not a fault of the instructors. The blame lies with the administrators. While the ideal discussiongroup contains ten students, the Humanities groups consist of twenty-five or more students. Discussion in these groups usually degenerates into another forum for the instructors views. Please, Mr.Administrator, if you are unable to provide an effective program, try something else. DAVID A. BOEMODERN WAR— NO MORALS Editor, The Collegian: As members of a college community,interested in the perpetuation of humane values, many of us must be shocked and horrified at whatis happening in Viet Nam. Without, in any sense, excusing the conduct of the soldiers on the other side in this conflict, and their leaders, we must face the fact that our own country, directly or indirectly,has resorted to gas, napalm, and torture. "When two nations are engaged in war the logic of thestruggle usually leads each side to believe that victory must take precedence over everything else. Itwould be hard to find an example in all history of a nation that faced a conflict between its moralprinciples and military victory and deliberately chose to remain true to its moral principles at the priceof military defeat. Virtually everything in Communist conduct that shocks the moral principles ofnon-Communists can be explained in terms that are familiar and even acceptable to most non-Communists when demanded by military necessity in time of international war. The list would includesystematic spying, censorship, assassinations, mass killings, the taking and killing of hostages,imprisonment without trial, the spreading of false propaganda, (whether a class or nation) by anyeffective means, mass starvation, sabotage, bribery, and the use of provocateurs and informers. Weneed to look back no further than World War II and the Korean war to find examples of all these acts'committed at one time or another by both sides —not because either side willfully preferred to engagein such acts but because both sides were forced by the logic of war to choose between engaging inthese acts and risking defeat." (Clarence Pickett, Saturday Review, Sept. 8, 1956). "Nothing is clearerthan a nation that gives its approval to participation in modern war, begins a proceess of progressivemoral deterioration that leads eventually to the sanction of the most dreadful acts of torture anddestruction. Whatever the high moral purposes for which a nation professes to fight, they mustinevitably be degraded and mocked by the inexorable destruction of all moral values that takes placeunder the guise of 'military necessity.' " (Alfred Hassler, "Fellowship," Feb., 1944.) Both of the abovequotations, from students of international affairs, point to the fact that in modern war one renouncesthe moral principle that the means determine the end, and, instead, one accepts the philosophy that the end justifies the means—any means—no matter how incompatible these may be with peace,justice, and brotherhood.

It should be born in mind, however, that those actsof government which have seemed anti- American usually have been equally anti-Russian and anti-Chinese. For instance, the curtailment of aid programs, the nationalization of foreign businessinterests and the closing Of foreign information libraries has affected Communist as well asdemocratic countries. Of still greater significance is the fact that Burma and the United Statescontinue to maintain good diplomatic relations in spite of their differences and there are reasons tohope that these ties will be further strengthened if Burma can be fully convinced that aid and tradewill not be used as a wedge for interference in her domestic affairs. TO UNDERSTAND what ishappening in Burma today calls for isome perspective. One must go back at least to January 4, 1948, when Burma was granted her independence by the British. It seems, in looking back, thatindenpendence became a kind of signal for internal fragmentation. During much of this period there wereas many as seven different kinds of rebel groups fighting against the central government, and on severaloccasions many were predicting the imminent fall of the capital city, Rangoon. ', Burma's number-oneproblem during the past fifteen years has been lack of internal stability. j The former Prime Minister UNu, tried gallantly to hold the country together and hammer out of the many diverse, politicial, religious and ethnic groups a sense of nationhood, but he never really succeeded. In the early months of 1962one of these ethnic groups, the Shans, who live in the northeast section of Burma, threatened to secede from the Union. U Nu had already made many concessions to the Shans as well as to other groups,some of which had strong leftist leanings. Then, in the pre-dawn darknes of March 2,1962, the head ofthe Armed Forces, General Ne Win, led an almost bloodless coup d'etat, taking into custody virtually allof the top government officials. The General is an affable man, 52 years of age, who explains that heand his men rescued the country from the kind of fragmentation that faced the United States in thedays of Abraham Lincoln and that if the Shans had seceded from the Union it would have led tocomplete collapse of the nation. He points further to U Nil's weakness in the face of this threat andinsists that parliamentary democracy failed to unify and develop the country. Of course, the real test how is whether the Ne Win government will be able to succeed where U Nu failed. Winning the support ofBurma's ethnic minorities is not likely to be easy. They are strongly independent and tend to feel thattheir interests are less than safe in the hands of the ruling Burman majority. American friends ofBurma turmoil American students Burma?"

INC Ph. 733-2130 1262 State St., Bellingham cannot help but hopethat conditions will soon be such that the Ne Win government will be able to introduce a greaterdegree of democracy, but it must be remembered that democracy will have to grow in Burmese soil: It cannot be imposed from the outside.. It is also well, in the interest of accuracy, to avoid theAmerican pastime of applying the Communist label to all totalitarian forms of government whichhappen to differ sharply from our own. It would seem that present developments in Burma are bestunderstood, not in terms of a drift, toward Communism, though no one would rule out such apossibility, but in terms of impatience with parliamentary democracy in the race to achieveinternal stability and economic development quickly. Coupled with this is the strong desire to avoiddomination by any outside influence whether it be from the East or the West. In the days ahead theNe Win government is likely to have every opportunity to experiment with its own kind of revolution.Though university students and Buddhist monks have been slow to get in step and insurgent groups likethe Kachin Independence Army continue to occupy large sections of the countryside, there is noevidence of any con-; centration of leadership that of-j fers a serious challenge to the; rulingRevolutionary^StfiicU, j In the meantime A^mcans\ do' well to avoid any "jtneiddhjig''; ini the internalaffairs of:3Jurma; at the same time seeking to strengthen the ties of mutual friendship and assistancewhere-ever possible. After all, it is quite possible that at this stage of Burma's development there maybe no real live option to military rule. It is also likely that a fierce nationalism may be the only effective counter force to Chinese expansionism.

Althoughthe Savages scored an overwhelming victory over Eastern Oregon College and Mount Royal College ofCalgary Saturday, a mere five lettermen are back from last year's squad. WITH FRESHMEN andsophomores composing a large part of the team, Dean Adams, a transfer from Wenatchee ValleyCollege, is forced, into a very active role. The Savages' workhorse will enter the;? 100-yard dash, 220- yard dash, high jump, broad jump and-triple jump. His triple jump performances have surpassed the44-foot mark—a distance that makes him a threat to Western's triple jump ace, Dick Perfrement.The Easterners have a decisive edge in the pole vault and weight divisions. Chuck Messenger hasvaulted over 14 feet several times while Dave Davis and Ed Gehring have both hurled the discus over140 feet. Davis has also put the shot over 48 feet. '. The Eastern school's depth is of unknown qualitywhereas that of the Vikings proved to be highly valuable against Pacific Lutheran University and theUniversity of Puget Sound Saturday. A continuation of this type of overall performance should give the Viks another decisive win. WANT ADS "Let Collegian Want Ads Work For You" $1 Col.

Unfortunately, the temptation is often overpowering because bynot "taking a chance" the driver must prepare for a long wait until the road is clear. The law holds thedriver responsible if, when making a left turn, he causes an accident. A person making a left turn must yield right of way to all oncoming traffic, says the law. Before you, as a driver, start a turn across thetraffic flow, it is up to you to make certain the move can be made in safety. This law on left turns applies to the driver whether he is turning in an intersection or into a private drive, such as a home driveway or parking lot. The main thing to remember in making turns, whether right or left, is that the law requiresyou to exercise reasonable safety in making the move and that you give the appropriate signal.

When t h e d r i n k was given t o him, he gulped it down, and t h e freedman swore t h a t h e h e a rd t h e d r i n k sizzle as it wentdown t h e horseman's gullet. • In another instance, a Negro man was returning from one of hissociety meetings at night when he was approached by a shrouded horseman who was eight feet tall.The rider offered to shake hands with the Negro, and when he did, the hand that the Negro shook wasthat of a skeleton. THE TWO above incidents are examples of how visits by the Ku Klux Klan wereblown up by the Negroes during the reconstruction period of the South. The Ku Klux Klan was started in 1866 in the small town of Pulaski, Tenn. The first members of the KKK were young men who hadreturned from the war and had a lot of free time on their hands. One night the young men of the townmet in a law office and decided to form a-secret group. They got their name from the Gieek word,Kuklos, meaning a .circle. The word klan followed as natural as dumpty follows humpty. THEYFORMED a secret oath for the initiation in which the only important part was that they were sworn tosecrecy about the operation of the Klan. The secrecy of the'Klari found a great following with otheryoung men in the rural arejs^of the South and many young^frien were forming their own dens. Themembers of the _ Klan found that the superstitious nature of the African slaves of the South led themto have great power over the freedman during the reconstruction period. The Klan used this accidentallyfound power to regulate and repress the lawlessness of the carpetbag rule of the day. In 1867 theKlan held its first convention in Nashville, Tenn. It formed "the Great Invisible Empire of the South."Officers were appointed with such weird titles as: Grand Wizard (president), Grand Dragon (stand head), Grand Titan (county head), and Grand Cyclops (leader of each den). THE OBJECT of the Klan was toprotect the people from indignities and wrongs, to succor the suffering of the Confederate familieswho lost members in the war and to defend the; Constitution of the United States' and all laws passedin accordance with it. They pledged to aid the execution of all the laws of the U. S. Constitution andta protect the people from unlawful seizures by the carpetbag rulers. They also pledged to protect thepeople from trial other than by jury. The Klans then started to do the job to which the members hadpledged themselves at the convention in Nashville. Whenever the freedmen grew unruly, the horsemenappeared by night and rectified the situation. Visits by the hooded riders caused most freedmen toremain in their houses after dark to avoid being confronted by the ghost riders. The Southerners lookedat the Klan as a revolt against the tyrannical rule of the carpetbaggers. They had renounced the rightof secession, so they decided to turn to the secrecy that the KKK provided. Philly Greeks' PartiesCancelled After Stabbings PHILADELPHIA (CPS)—A11 open fraternity parties at Temple Universityhave been cancelled following, the stabbings of three students outside fraternity houses. Thedecision, voted by mem-ers of the Fraternity Presidents Council (FPC), was announced recently by FPC president My-les Rademan and is effective immediately. THE ACTION came in response to threestabbings over a period of several weeks. The first incident took place outside the Alpha Epsilon Pihouse after crashers were ejected from the Fraternity's smoker party. The victim, stabbed in the backwith a broken bottle, was released from the hospital after one week. Police have reported, they haveno leads to whom the assailant was. Early this month a Temple student and a Villanova student were stabbed outside Sigma Pi fraternity in a second outbreak of violence in connection with fraternityparties. In this case, too, the assailants had been ejected from the house for crashing a party. Policehave arrest-ed three suspects in the second stabbing incident. Charges by the FPC werd broughtagainst both houses for "failing to exercise proper con-r trol by permitting a situation to develop whichmade necessary the ejection of some guests." Alpha Epsilon Pi was placed onr social probation for twosemesters and Sigma Pi for one. An editorial in the Temple News, however, charged that "the FPChas not lived up to its responsibility." The editorial noted that regulations forbidding open parties havebeen on the gt; books for some time but have not been enforced. JAMES FARMER, National Directorof CORE, once, chased by the KKK.

By KENNETH GEARY ED.NOTE: This is a new column and a different writer will be asked to fill it weekly. It is bound to becontroversial. You won't like everything you read. The author's comments are his own and do notnecessarily reflect the opinions of this paper, college, students or faculty. (Geary is a student atWestern and served as clerk on the House Committee on Higher Education in Olympia.) Reams of words and hundreds of speeches have been preached to the American people and to the world regarding thestruggle for Civil Rights and the activities of extremist groups opposing the right of Negro citizens toregister and cast their ballots in a free election. It is a remarkable accident of history that the final drive for equality for all American citizens should occur during the administration of a President born and raised in the South. Comments today usually concern the "un-American" activities of the Ku Klux Klan, theWhite Citizens Councils, the American Nazi Party and more recently the John Birch Society. The Rev.Martin Luther King, commenting on the JBS, stated "The Birchers thrive on sneer and smear, on thedissemination of half truths and outright lies. It would be comfortable to dismiss them as the lunaticfringe—which, by and large they are; but some priests and ministers have also shown themselves to beamong them. They are a very dangerous group—and they could become even more dangerous if thepublic doesn't reject the un-American travesty of patriotism that they espouse." MOST AMERICANS findcomfort in the work of Civil Rights workers, be they in Alabama or Mississippi, but the knee jerk liberalsstill have a problem. The House Un-American Activities Committee has had, in the past, a tendency toinvestigate the activities of the left wing while completely ignoring the activities of the right wing. Someliberals are horrified at the request of the President of the United States when he called for an investigation of the Ku Klux Klan and other right wing organizations and individuals. Despite the opinions of theAmerican Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) it is quite likely that such an investigation may prove useful inpossible legislation and possibly determining why certain Southerners who are arrested for certaincrimes are never convicted in Southern courts despite the recent pro-Negro attitude of the FBI.PRESIDENT JOHNSON, commenting on the recent death of Mrs. Liuzzo, a white Civil Rights worker,during a voter registration drive in Alabama, said that "she was murdered by the enemies of justice, whofor decades have used the gun, the tar and feathers to terrorize their neighbors." - Commenting further onthe right wing extremists, and specifically the Klan, Johnson concluded by saying, "I know that theirloyalty gt;is not to the United States but to a hooded society of bigots." Draft Not To Be Dumped:McNamara Says No Dice WASHINGTON (CPS)—It now appears unlikely that the draft will bediscontinued anytime in the near future. The recommendation which Secretary of Defense Robert S.McNamara makes in submitting the Defense Department's study to President Johnson in April thismonth is expected to warn that the manpower structure of the armed forces would collapse if the draftwere ended anytime in the immediate future. Although it was never expected that the study of the draftsituation would result in any major changes in.the next two years, it was hoped that such changesmight come within four or five years. Now, it appears only major changes in the international role of the United States or great inCceases in military pay would bring about such changes. The Viet Nam crisishas only served to dramatize the firmly entrenched position of the draft, which has long been used as asignal of national determination in times of crisis.

Freeman Dr. Ronald Moloneynounced at a time when war cording to Congressional sources. But more important than thatconsideration is the Pentagon's fear that ending the draft would make enlistments plunge dangerously. This fear has been supported by enlistment statistics during late 1964 and early 1965. In August,enlistments were nine per cent lower than the year before, they were five and 15 per cent threatens inSoutheast Asia, ac-lower in September and October respectively. This drop in volunteer enlistmentshas necessitated a doubling of draft calls for March, from 3,900 to 7,900. It is assumed that anychanges would have to be accompanied by a massive increase in military pay, especially to servicemenin their first two years. The Administration has given no indication that it is preparing plans for sucha pay increase. AS Budget Could Meet Trouble With Western's budget being cut by over a milliondollars for next year, student officers are wondering what will happen to the Associated Students budget. It is speculated that the budget may exceed $100,000 as opposed to this year's $91,000. Theadministration budget committee decides how much money they will return to the AssociatedStudents after they analyze the proposed student budget and how much they can afford. The Klipsunbudget for next year will exceed $17,000 alone if the budget committee for the students— which metlast night—decided in favor. The Collegian budget exceeds $22,000 and Business Manager DonBothell notes that this is without frills.

Most likely he will look for a rescue mission for he knowshe will not be turned away. The Lighthouse Mission at 500-504 W. Holly St. in Bellingham has been ahaven for thousands of such men since 1954. . SOME MEN stay only for a few days and thencontinue their wandering, especially if they have made a few dollars. Others want to strike roots andmake the Mission their permanent home. These men often become staff members, cooks, repairmen,printers, laundrymen. For Mike Hilty, superintendent of the Mission, each day offers numerousopportunities to chat with the men and, with compassion and understanding, try to straighten out theirlives. In a recent interview, Hilty said the Mission's aim was to A printing shop in the base-,sheets andpillowcases, and gen-ment is a great boon to the Mis- erally keeping things in order, sion, and turns outall their busi- An assistant does the sweeping, ness forms, brochures, and mopping and other duties.MANUEL MA TIN rehabilitate the men, ifi$tfssibTg£ and to "proclaim to them the Gospel of JesusChrist.'V ^ ^ a c knowledged that the majority don't stay long enough for him to establish a lastingrelationship, but then1 pointed to a sheaf of letters on his desk, all from men who- have been helped at the Mission, and are now happy in their hew life. HILTY, WHO has been pastor of Mennonite churchesin Win-ton, Calif., and Lynden, Wash., glowed with enthusiasm as he talked about the work of theMission. He told of a man who had slept under his uncle's porch before coming to the Mission. A-nother man, he said, had been an alcoholic, T. B. patient, and walked with a steel pin in his leg. Thisman has been cured and is now on the staff. HILTY SAID that in an average month 40 new men cometo the Mission, over 3,000 free meals are served, free clothing is distributed to about 450 people, andapproximately 90 families are helped with food, clothing and furniture. He said he couldn't carry onwithout donations from businessmen, churches, schools, and other organizations. While he was talking, a man came into the office and told Hilty he would have to go to the hospital for an ulcer operation.Hilty wished him good luck, assured him that he would visit him soon. "These men need someonewho cares for them," he said. "Many of- them'come to me just for a word of encouragement or advice. Some have told me that no one had ever been concerned about them until they came to the LighthouseMission." Other men came to ask advice, to report various matters, one to borrow money. Theadmiration and affection they had for this heavy-set, energetic man was readily evident. HILTYTALKED EXCITEDLY of instances which he called the "romance, the driving force" of his vocation. "Wehad a cook here for two years," he said, "a onan named James Platts, in his sixties. One day heshowed me a letter from his family in Michigan, begging him to come home or at least write. Can youbelieve hT he was so attached to the Mission that I had to coax him to go to his family, which had beenwithout word of him for 17 years. He actually asked me for permission to leave, then promised hewould be back soon after seeing his family. I'm so happy he stayed with his family though— this iswhat we are always hoping will happen." HILTY BEAD a letter from an Indian in Vancouver, B. C, who thanked him warmly for his personal interest and promised to visit the Mission gt;M§jm. "I'm so farbehind in. my letter writing I could'use another secretary to do all my correspondence,^ -HHty - said; .'*AImost every" day I get letters from all over the country- Today in fact, I got two letters from Australia." In addition to the superintendent and his wife, the staff at the Mission includes a dispatcher, two or three cooks, mechanic, repairman, dormitory supervisor, three store clerks, secretary, -printer,'lauifdryman, and several handymen. Most of these positions are 'filled "by men undergoing"rehabilitation. When a Vacancy-occurs, another man is found to take over. ' HILTY SHOWED methrough the two large buildings stocked, with books, clothing, furniture, dishes, appliances, shoes,antiques. Revenue from the sale of these goods helps supplement the donations, but he said theMission is badly in need of financial backing. tracts. One of the Mission's three buildings houses akitchen, recently remodelled chapel, and dormitory. During the day, most of the men work on spotjobs, such as gardening, digging and construction. After work, they usually watch TV or just relax.Every evening they attend a service in the chapel. Churches of various denominations presentprograms of song, testimonies, and Gospel preaching. Smoking or drinking is not One of the Mission's veterans, Ed Dionne, who Hilty calls "my right hand man," is the dispatcher, stand-by cobk andassistant to the superintendent. He dispatches the Mission's three trucks to various parts of RAYCAPES, truck driver from Arkansas allowed in the dorm, and the lights are out at 10:30. The capacity of the dormitory is 32 men. There are 13 double bunks and six sofas; -'". "In winter though, especiallywhen it's cold, we have more men than beds and must lay mattresses on the floor," the dorm supervisorsaid.

The trucks also haul bales of cardboard to the pulpmill, where it is used to make heavy wrapping paper. Dionne recalled the day six years ago when hehopped off a freight from Wenatchee and got a bed for the night at the Mission. "I had a good night'ssleep for a change," he said. "The next morning I cooked breakfast for the others." BEFORE COMINGto Belling-ham, Dionne had worked at "'most any kind of job" and was an experienced cook. "I take over whenever one the cooks get the urge to leave," he said. An easy-going, loquacious man, Dionnerambled on for awhile about the men he sees come and go at the mission. "Most of them are restlessand don't want to be tied down. I'd si\y tbou.t two men come or gG every c'ay, many of them withoutsaying a thing. Two days ago five men arrived and seven left. Since this is about the end of the line,most of them head for Everett, Seattle and points south. I figured out awhile back that the average stayis about three weeks." He rifled through the files on the men who had arrived in March. They had driftedinto the Lighthouse Mission from Various parts of the continent—Oregon, California, Idaho, Colorado,Alberta, Alaska, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Indiana, Maryland, Michigan, Arkansas, and of course,Washington, though only a few were from Bellihgham. Dionne said only rarely did a man stay for aslong as a year. He himself is a remarkable exception, for he plans t© stay on at the Mission as longas there its work to do. Ed Dionne should be at Bel!- ingham's Lighthouse Mission for sometime. Menwith grave needs will continue to find their way to 504 W. Holly St. And they will be helped, and given achance to regain respectability, for superintendent Mike Hilty's admission requirements are notstringent. "We bar none," he said.

Tennis Team Wins, LosesWestern's tennis team defeated St. Martin's 6-1 Tuesday after splitting a weekend pair with theUniversity of British Columbia, losing 5-2 Friday and winning 3-0 Saturday. The Vikings were hamperedFriday by their inexperience on an indoor court, but showed well, nevertheless. Freshman John Leightonwon his first collegiate match at the No. 5 singles position. Terry Cooney and Mark Pearlman scoredanother point as they outlasted their opponents in a grueling three set doubles match. In an abbreviatedreturn match, the Vikings swept the three-match encounter on the Western home courts. Denny Lewisand Terry Cooney, playing No's 1 and 2 respectively for Western, scored singles victories, while MarkPearlman and Rich McKay won their doubles match. Denny Lewis, senior from Bell-ingham, led theVikings to their easy win Tuesday with 6-0 and 6-3 scores. Terry Cooney, junior from Seattle, won his match handily, 6-1 and 6-0, while Mark Pearlman, sophomore from Seattle, had a 6-2 and 6-3 edge onhis opponent. In other singles matches, Rich McKay dropped a tough three-set decision, and JohnLeighton chalked up his second win, 6-1 and 6-3. Tuesday the Vikings had too much finesse for St.Martin's -in the doubles as they scored two convincing wins. Thus tomorrow Western faces CentralWashington State College in the Conference opener. Both teams should be strong .contenders forConference honors. .The Vikings boast four returning lettermen among their five top players withDenny Lewis topping the ladder for the third straight year. Three-year letter-man Terry Cooney holdsdown the No. 2 position. Sophomore lettermen Mark Pearlman and Rich McKay fill the No. 3 and 4spots. John Leighton, freshman from Lynnwood, rounds out the top five. Team morale is high and theyare determined to win the championship for first-year-coach Don Wiseman.

I made the final turn and I said to myself, 'You'd better get going,' so I gotgoing, and when I stood up and wiped my eyes I saw t w o guys finish behind me. I guess I won." Thosewere the proud and hap py words of Western's Dave Emery who recently placed first in the 100 yardButterfly in the National Small College Swimming and Diving Championships, held in La Crosse, Wise.,March 15-17. He also took sixth in the nation in the 200 yard Butterfly. Emery's record here atWestern reads like a true champion as he has won the Evergreen Conference Butterfly four years in a row, setting a new record each time. He has placed in at least one or two other events in the conference besides the 100 yard Butterfly. The second year Emery swam for Western he was chosen Captainand most valuable swimmer on the team. He received the same honor his third year and most likelywill be chosen again this year. EMERY BEGAN his swimming career in high school in Tacoma atLincoln. As. a young sophomore he began swimming the freestyle under the coaching of Dick Hannula (now coach of state champion, Wilson High School of Tacoma) and Bob Nichols. During his junior year he switched to the butterfly and has stayed with it ever since. In his senior, year Emery took forth inthe state championships in the butterfly. That year he was named the captain and most inspirationalswimmer on his team. After graduating from high school, Emery shopped around for a school for almost two years and finally settled on Western. His first year here at Western the speedy Viking went back to the nationals in Detroit and placed sixth in the 100 yard Butterfly. The next year Emery went backto Oklahoma and placed fifth. Last year he followed the trend and placed fourth in St. Paul. EMERYCREDITS his success this year to hard work with Coach Don Wiseman previous to the trip back, andearly training before the start cf the season. The work obviously paid off as he came within one-tenth of a second of breaking the national record. Dave and his wife Darlene plan to make their home in Tacoma, where Emery will coach high school swimming.
