Ayers staff reporter More than 500 people packed the Viking Union lounge Wednesday to hear Cesar Chavez, president of the Union Farm Workers lt; of America, call for support of a boycott of Californiagrapes. "We ask you to join with us in public action," Chavez told the enthusiastic crowd. "We ask youto boycott grapes ... in fact, we ask you to boycott anything that looks like a grape." The standing-room-only crowd gave Chavez two standing ovations as he spoke about the problems facing farm workers.Chavez said the worst of these problems is caused by the use of pesticides which he said led to thedevelopment of population "cancer clusters" — areas in rural California showing an alarmingly high rateof cancer victims. He said in McFarland, Calif., with a population of around 6,000, the cancer rate forchildren is 800 percent greater than the national average, and another farming town just miles to the north has a rate 1200 percent higher than the national average. "In these cancer clusters there is the highestrate of birth defects anywhere in the nation," Chavez said. Chavez, founder of the UFW and a well known activist for more than 20 years, said the main focus of the union's boycott are the pesticides he blamesfor these problems. "In 1965 the growers said they couldn't hope to raise one single grape withoutpesticides," he said. But, following a grape boycott, in which 17.5 million Americans joined, the growerscame to the negotiating table and the pesticide DDT was eventually prohibited from agricultural use.Now, Chavez said, new pesticides have replaced the old, and the conditions are no better. "Pesticidesare poisons — their only Cesar Chavez talks with students after purpose to kill living things. And weknow we are all living things," he said. "The debate always comes around to risks and benefits ... weneed to take risks as a population to benefit the polluters, that's what they are really saying." Chavezsaid public action was the only way to change the conditions for farm workers. "We don't have the votesto pass meaningful legislation in this state or in any state... We can't do it through public policy giving alecture in the VU lounge this (so) instead we offer public action. We need to bypass legislators and godirectly to the marketplace." ,. In a press cpnference prior to his speech, Chavez said the current grapeboycott, which started in 1988, was about to move into its third — and most important — stage. "In the third stage, the picketing starts ... the real controversial part," he said. Chavez said the earlier stages,which consisted of getting endorsements from religious and civic groups, and the current week ^'e rAnderson/The Western Front consumer boycott have given the farmers a solid base of support — around 12 million people; He said the union estimated they would need 18 million Americans to stop eatinggrapes in order to force the growers to negotiate. Chavez told the crowd they could make a difference,even at Western. "You can help us by not eating grapes, you can go to your food service and ask themto remove grapes ... on their (farm workers) behalf we ask you to do your part." Charges of anti-Semitism brought against Goller By Noelle Kompkoff campus government editor In a letter submitted toAssociated Students President Mark Aaserud Tuesday, a Veteran's Outreach Center member hascharged Vice President of External Affairs Chad Goller with anti-Semitism. With the opening remark, "(I)believe that anti-Semitism is alive and well at WWU," VOC member Shaun Bridge contends Goller made several racist statements about Jews during a discussion in the VOC last January — about the timeSaddam Hussein bombed Israel with SCUD missiles. Bridge alleges Goller told him, "all Jews are eviland they must die," in front of other VOC members Tim Osterholm, Mark Monroe, Dave Fuller, ChristinaRustvold and Mark Carlsen. "I was offended by these charges," Goller said. "I deny saying these quotes, and I deny the anti-Semitic charges." Bridge also stated Goller claimed to be an expert on Jewishculture because he said he had lived in Israel and attended Hebrew University in Jerusalem. Bridge saidGoller justified his statements by saying, "Jews... own... the slums in New York," and that a very credible professor in Canada "has documented and done research proving the Holocaust never happened."Bridge said he didnotmention the fact that he is Jewish to Goller at the time of the incident. "I did notsay, nor insinuate (that Jews are evil)," wrote Goller in a letter to Bridge. Goller said in the letter thatBridge must have misunderstood what he had said about conflicts be- Shaun Bridge tween blacktenants and their Jewish landlords, as well as misunderstanding what he said about a professor, whomGoller said taught the theory that white men are superior to blacks. "If you misunderstood anything I said, I offer you my sincere apologies.," Goller said in his letter to Bridge. "When we let misunderstandings go undiscussed, they become bigger misunderstandings. I am afraid that is what this has turned into."Monroe verified some of Bridges allegations. "At the time (Goller made his remarks) I was using thecomputer and there was a heated conversation between (Goller and Bridge) about Jews in general,"Monroe said. "Right before Chad left, I remember him saying the key words, 'They are evil and they mustdie.' Chad Goller I remember them (the words) because they were so harsh." Speaking as actingcoordinator for the VOC, Monroe stated a position of neutrality for the center. "We are not involved in theconflict," he said. Goller, who left Wednesday morning for a conference in Kansas City on racism, saidhe was "very surprised" when he heard about the allegations. "It's a very interesting form of retaliation,"Goller said, referring to the events surrounding VOC Coordinator Tim Osterholm's resignation last week.Osterholm resigned after Goller told him he was going to be held accountable for racial graffiti found on acalendar in the VOC See CHARGES on page 3 ---------- Western Front - 1991 April 12 - Page 2 ---------- 2 The Western Front NEWS April 12,1991 Briefs Clean up Squalicum Beach As part of the Earth Month Campaign this April, the Associated Students Environmental Center is sponsoring a cleanup ofSqualicum Beach April 14.

Credit card applicants tobenefit Western Foundation scholarships By Mike Clynch staff reporter Within the next two or threeweeks Western students should be receiving applications for a special VISA credit card that will helpfinance scholarships and projects, Lance Olsen, AS treasurer/ secretary, said. The credit cards arethe brainchild of Olsen, who heads the Not For Profit Board responsible for initiating the idea. The board,which is comprised of the AS Board of Directors, negotiated with MBNA America Bank, a nationalbank based in Delaware, and Trans National Group Services to provide a mailing list of Western students in exchange for financial compensation. VISA will pay the Western Foundation $1 for every newaccount, 15 cents for every transaction, and S3 each time the card is renewed. Olsen estimates thatafter two years, $25,000 will be earned per year. The funds will be used for scholarships and specialprojects. The credit card currently has a 19.8 percent interest rate. Olsen said this was close to theaverage rate for most cards. A condition the board set for providing student mailing lists to VISA is thatthe list may not be released to any other businesses, to ensure that students aren't besieged byfloods of junk mail from other companies. A letter drafted by Olsen will accompany the credit cardapplication. Olsen said his letter will explain the board's position on this issue and the benefits availableto Western. Western will assume no liability for the cards. Credit histories and other financial criteria will be used to judge the acceptability of each application. Susan Durkee, a counselor for ConsumerCredit Counselling Service of Seattle which has a branch office in Student Credit Card applications. TylerAnderson/The Western Front downtownBellingham, said she didn't see a big problem with the cards.Durkee said she typically counsels only two students a month who have run up their credit card andcan't afford to pay the bill. She also said that she thought it may be better to learn how to deal withcredit in school rather than in the work force. The number of undergraduates, with creditcardsincreased37 percent from 1988 to 1990, according to Collegetrack, a marketing research and consultingfirm in Manhatten. Credit News, a trade magazine, estimates the number of college students owningcredit cards to be 3.9 million. This is about 70 percent of the total students enrolled in four-yearcolleges. The NotForProfitboard estimates 1,000 to 1,500 cards will be issued to Western studentsduring the first year. The Times said typical student credit limits are about $500. VISA, unlike AmericanExpress, does not require the bill to be paid in full every month. Charges can be paid off in installmentswith interest as long as a minimum charge is paid each month. Benefit dance raises money for burnvictim by Julie Davisson staff reporter More than 400 people attended the benefit dance Saturday forWestern studentPete Albert, 23, who wasbadly burned in the Jan. 2 fire at Bellingham's ML BakerApartments. Kim Owner , a close friend of Albert's died in the fire. The benefit was organized" by the Rugby Club in order to raise money to help Albert cover his medical Pete Albert and costs, whichare expected to be at least $500,000—insurance will only cover $300,000 worth of those bills. EmmettKerns, a rugby player and one of the organizers of the event, said the $4 cover charge and beer gardenproduced enough capital to sufficiently cover the costs of the event. Kerns estimates the proceeds totalapproximately $400. Kerns, a longtime friend of Albert's, said the dance was a success and everyoneseemed to have a good time. Captain Dick and the Portholes provided the music, and Kerns said theymade sure the audience knew about the cause. "It was fun for him (Albert) to see people and get out ofthe hospital for a while," Kerns said. "Pete said he had a real good time." At about 11 p.m., the RugbyClub presented Albert with a jersey printed with the number 11. Eleven was Albert's number when he played football at community college. Albert has been in S e a t t l e ' s Kim Owner HarborviewHospital since the day of the fire and was moved to the rehabilitation unit about three weeks ago. Kerns saidAlbert should be released from the hospital in about a week. Albert will need to stay close to the hospital for therapy, but he plans on returning to Western in the fall to finish a degree in environmental policy.Kerns said Albert loved playing rugby and hopes to play again someday. "I see no reason why hecan't," Kerns said.

"I couldn't live withmyself knowing my taxes were going to buy bombs that are killing people in El Salvador and Iraq," saidKerkvliet, a member of Bellingham's War Tax Redirection Campaign. Kerkvliet, joined by others whowant to influence where their taxes go, is manning an Alternative Revenue Service booth outside theFederal Building until April 15. A Tax Day rally on April 15 at the Federal Building will feature localspeakers, such as Western Professor Maury Foisy and Juan Oriz, director of the Commission ofHispanic and Ethnic Relations. The Alternative Revenue Service is a project of the War Resister' sLeague, a national organization that provides alternative tax forms for people who don't want their taxmoney going to the military. "I think people perceive they have no control whatsoever over their taxes,"campaign member Steve Wilson said as he explained why so few Americans question how their taxes are spent. According to pamphlets distributed by the War Resisters League, 61 percent of the federal government's 1990 budget was spent on past and present military expenses. For members of thecampaign, providing the funds for military build-up and intervention violates a deeply-heldcommitment to oppose war. "I identify myself as a conscien- IS THIS HOW YOUR TAX DOLLARSSHOULD BE SPENT? -fine 50.20 -4$ M 1,60 2.80 is100 MILITARY EMPLOYMENT ENVIRONMENTHOUSING EDUCATION HEALTH CARE Northern California Common Agenda Coalition • AmericanFriends Service Committee tious objector to military service and paying for military services," Wilsonsaid. Tom Clark, a member of Bellingham Citizens for Peace in the Middle East, has chosen to withhold the federal excise tax on his monthly phone bills in order to protest that such a small percentage offederal money is allocated to human resources, such as welfare and student grants. Both Wilson andKerkvliet said most reasons given for tax resistance are part .of complex moral and spiritual beliefs.Tax resistance is not a way of avoiding taxes, but a way to tell the federal government spendingpriorities should be changed, Kervliet said. "We're not opposed to taxation, that's essential," Wilsonsaid. "It's just our priorities are out of line." One passerby said, "Once they (the IRS) have it (my taxes)in hand, it's out of my control." However, campaigning members said many options are available totaxpayers with varying degrees of risk. The simplest way to show disapproval of government spendingpriorities is to refuse to pay the federal phone tax. The excise tax on all local and long-distancecharges was instituted during the Vietnam War in order to help pay the war's rising costs, and isstill generating S3 billion a year for military spending, Kerkvliet said. Withholding the tax simply requiresmailing a letter of explanation or one of the War Tax Redirection Campaign's special forms along with the bill to tell the phone company how much is being withheld and why. According to the campaign flier, noone has been charged with a criminal offence because of this action. Kerkvliet said he has withheld his phone tax for eight years without reprisal. Taxpayers can also choose to withhold a portion of theirincome tax and include with the IRS form the EZ Peace form distributed by the War Resister's League.The EZ Peace form looks like a 1040 form and allows taxpayers to place portions of their taxes underthe headings human resources; physical resources; environment, education and culture; Interna- .tional Conflict Resolution; and Justice. The amounts range from $1- S50. Individuals wanting to take a greater risk can withhold the military percentage of their taxes (61%) or withhold all of their federalincome tax. The War Tax Redirection Campaign will also be collecting signatures forf Senate bill689. The new "peace tax" bill would create a conscientious objector status for taxpayers, a reviewboard to screen tax objectors in the same way a draft board screens conscientious objectors tomilitary service, a federal peace tax fund and a national peace college, according to the NationalCampaign for a Peace Tax Fund brochure. Members of the War Tax Redistribution Campaign willpresent the Peace Tax bill petitions to Al Swift's office at 1:30 pm Friday. continued from page 1n^;:the::.OT^-6|winier:!quarter.- Goller said he wondered why Bridge waited so long before making acomplaint. "It's; interesting he (Bridge) didn't come talk to me about this," Goller said. "Why did he waitamonth and ahalf to bring this up?" Bridge said he didn't file his complaint sooner because shortly afterthe incident his father was severely injured in a coma for 36 days. Rustvold, listed in Bridge's letter as awitness to Goller's alleged remarks, said she heard Goller talking about Jews and the Palestinian issue. "I did hear the comment 'Jews are evil and they must be destroyed," Rustvold said. In a regularlyscheduled AS Board meeting Tuesday night, Aaserud said he hadn't looked into the issue enough tomake a coment. "These are very serious charges and I will be working with Chad on this," Aaserudsaid.

Sparrow's work was displayed as part of the "Elemental Clay" exhibit put onby WCC's Studio Potters' Program April 5-7. Pieces of functional ware by Gregg Downey and SandyRowe were also displayed. "It's kind of like psychic time travel," said Sparrow describing his creativeprocess as he stood beside one of his sculptures. "It's pretty much a subconscious activity. I try for apure sense of form and balance. Sometimes I get really focused in on a place, like Egypt or Africa.Other times it's more vague, like a fuzzy picture," Sparrow said. Sparrow's sculpture is unusual andstriking, making good use of natural colors and motifs. Sparrow said he draws on themes and imageswhich he believes make up a cross-cultural pool of myths and icons. "All mythologies share commonsymbols, use the same elements," Sparrow said. Myths and symbols serve as his inspiration, notartistic crutches, Sparrow said. "I don't believe in ripping off some other culture's symbology. I draw onall kinds of common themes." Animal imagery dominates Sparrow's art. "Mainly dogs and cats," hesaid with a laugh. "Nothing particularly exotic." Sparrow admits he was influenced byAmericanIndianreligious artifacts garnered during his travels inMexico, Guatemala and the AmericanSouthwest; Animals like the jaguar and coyote had particular significance. "That's what's great aboutart. It's a cheap way to travel. Through my sculpture, I can go anywhere in the world," he said. Sparrow,who is coordinator of the Studio Potters' Program, has been a potter for 18 years. He came from anartistic background, both his parents had careers in fine and commercial art. He said he spent some time as a production potter in San Francisco, spinning out pots and bowls for the public, but eventuallytiredof the dull routine and lack of creative freedom. "People become production potters because theythink they are escaping from the rat race," he said. "But after a while they discover it's just a differentkind of rat race." Now, Sparrow said, he does strictly the type of art he feels like doing. "Once itbecomes work, it loses its fun, its sense of spontaneity. A lot of people sell out, do the stuff that getsthe most money. I prefer enjoying what I do." Boulevard Park's Orca Gallery serves as the headquartersfor the Studio Potters Program, with its own kiln and work area, and the added bonus of the bay view.People can join the program through Whatcom Community College, whether they are serious potters orjust want to get their fingers in some wet clay.

Produced by TheatreFest '91 and sponsored by theBellingham Municipal Arts Commission, Peoria will openinMay attheWhatcomMuseum of History andArt. Produced and directed by Adam Ward, the creator of TheatreFest, Peoria is the examination ofmiddle class America, andits oftenhumorous struggle against boredom. "Everyone (in the play) wants to be special. They are all looking for the 'unique article.' The secret to being special is to decide that youare," Boynton said. Boynton said this is the theme he has derived from working on the play's production so far. Both Hahn, the other lead, and he play a complex, bizarre, yet realistic set of characters in theplay. In one scene, Klein has the characters speak what they are thinking, while recorded voice-oversrepresent actual conversation. Boynton, a 1981 graduate of theatre and dance, is one of the two leadactors in the play. His arrival back in Bellingham, a decade later, is with a great deal of change andpersonal growth. "I was being tumbled along by the Jason Haws/The Western Front Actress Jody Hahnand director Adam Ward look on as actor Ken Boynton strikes a pose inbetween interviews for "Peoria."winds of fate, I guess. I was trying to climb out of the ocean of art, only to be ripped back in by theundertow," Boynton said. Boynton said he explored his talents after graduating from Western as amusician in a rock band, song writer and as on-air commercial talent. He finally found his niche inacting through a production with the Mount Seattle Theatre Project and two productions with Seattle'sacclaimed Empty Space Theatre. Boynton has also appeared in two films, Lessie's Rainbow andStages. Hahn, the other lead in Peoria, is a 1990 theatre graduate. Since her graduation, Hahn said shehas played a role as "the little nun" in the Seattle Repertory Theatre's production House of Blue Leaves. Reflecting on her role in Peoria, Hahn said, "It (the play) is amazingly true... It's rare a piece of theatrecatches this much in a show that's not that long." Hahn was also at the Seattle Fringe-Fest in the playTrial By Jury, as well as in the New City Director's Festival production of Stop. Hahn said she has keptin close contact with other Western graduates through an independent film project. Hahn said Gee, thesilent black-and-white film she is working on, is written, directed and produced by alumni. Hahn saidshe met Ward, theplay's director, during the first TheatreFest in 1988. TheatreFest is perfect in thiscommunity which has a lot of college theatre, but not a lot within the community itself, Hahn said.Crane, a 1985 self-design Fairhaven graduate, is the designer and technical director for Peoria.. Cranesaid the self-design major in performing arts' design and production is a real asset when he is lookingfor employment. Crane said it proves that he is a self-motivated worker and thinker since he wrote hisown major. Crane said he built on his expertise as an intern at the Berkeley Repertory Theatre. He alsoworked at the Bathhouse and Intiman Theatres in Seattle as a technician. Crane is now in his secondyear as the designer and technical director at Skagit Valley Community College's theatre department.For TheatreFest '91, Cranehas the taskof transforming the old city council chambers in the WhatcomMuseum, or what is now called the Rotunda Room, into a stage for the play. "The script calls for skewed spacing — strange angles which get you off balance," Crane said. He added that the set he hasplanned for the Rotunda Room is non-traditional in the theatrical sense. "Theatre people will be baffled,"Crane said. This may enhance the play's appeal toward a wide, diverse audience. "Peoria is not just atown, it's a state of mind," playwright Klein has said about the production. Tickets for the play, whichruns fromMay 16-19 and23-26, are $5 for students and senior citizens; S7.50 general admission; and $6for members of the Whatcom Museum and Allied Arts.

Jensen staff reporter "Two minutes to purgatory," spouts one of the Speedy O'Tubbs bartenders asshe passes by, only moments before the doors open to admit the impatient Saturday night crowd. TheCRAZY 8s are back again. Little more than a month after the band's last appearance here, the crowd isready for that special brand of music the 8s seem to covet for themselves. "It's hard to describe ourmusic," guitarist Mark Wanaka said while other members of the band struggled for a label. "It'scorrugated silk... it's natural polyester," the other band members finally said. "I think our music is unique because we blend so many different styles and come up with a sound that's like, sort of undefinable," Todd "Dookey" Duncan, lead vocalist and alto sax player said. Their music, in fact, does seem to defyany attempt to label it. Younever quite seem to know what will pop up next in their music. One minuteyou'11 hear hard-core, old-fashioned jazz, the next it's reggae or ska, and the next minute they'reblending funk, fusion, punk, or any number of styles. If the crowd waiting in the cool, lavishly and oddlydecorated dungeon called Speedy O'Tubbs can't figure out just what the CRAZY 8s play, they don'tseem to mind. Everyone is there for the pure enjoyment of the music. This is only the group's secondperformance with the new, full lineup of eight members, which includes new tenor sax player JayCollins and keyboard player Ron Regan. From the original nine members, the group had dropped toseven until recently. But once again, the band is the CRAZY 8s. The current line-up includes Duncan on lead vocals and alto saxophone, Wanaka playing guitar, Tim "Hot" Tubb blowing trombone and singingback-up vocals, Carl "The Truth" Smith playing percussion, Blackness on drums, Michael Regan onbass and the two new youngsters, Collins and Ron Regan. New or not, everyone definitely held their own on Saturday night . Impressive solos were laid down on various tunes by all members (Wow! Keep thenew guys.) It was quickly evident the audience was enjoying itself. The subdued bar transformed into arolling, jumping, sweating concert "pit." Even the guys playing pool in the back couldn't resist themusic. "Bellingham people seem to listen to the music as opposed to just coming to see the band,get drunk and get laid. When they 're here for the music, that's nice," Duncan said. Old stuff, new stuff,and a couple of interesting cover-tunes rounded out the three-hour-plus show. The band was relentless,making everyone dance until they could barely stand. People wandered home, complete with squishedtoes, dozens of bruises, and big, contented smiles on their faces. The CRAZY 8s, a nine-year-old bandout of Corvalis, Ore., are currently touring to promote their latest album, "Doggapotamus World" —their fifth album released from their own Red Rum Records (anybody get the joke?) "DoggapotamusWorld" Western Front file photo was the 8s' first studio project in more than three years."Doggapotamus World's" slow sales take-off has been a bit of a letdown for some band members.However, they are still expecting good things from it, Duncan said. "It's doing all right, but it's notdoing great. It's sort of disappointing because we think it's one of our most exciting deals we've recorded.Itmore clearly captures our energy on record," Wanaka said. "It was one of the most creative packageswe've ever done," Duncan added. Oneof the main reasons hindering the band's success, and its recordsales, is thehier archy and bureaucracy of the record business, Duncan said. Unsigned, as of yet, to amajor record label, the 8s handle everything themselves. "Wecan'tafford the machinery to push recordslike the big guys," Duncan said. "It's not such a great deal just getting signed. It's what happens after. Sometimes they just use you as a tax write-off," Wanaka added. Hard work and perseverance seem tobe paying off for the CRAZY 8s. "We've put out five of our own records, paid every bill ourselves, had fivenational tours, played with 25 international acts, and we are still making a living at it," Wanaka said. The CRAZY 8s plan to tour the Pacific Northwest for the rest of the spring and summer, and a larger,nationwide tour next fall. The 8s will possibly begin work on another studio project early next year.Watch for it. "Whatever we're doing, we're going to keep doing it," Duncan said.

Youthful Ridge Quartet performs at PAC By ArtHughes staff reporter The Ridge Quartet did not blaze into the first movement of Mozart's String Quartetin C Major, K. 157. A young, but obviously experienced group, they set a tone in the first bars of theallegro that delivered a musical warmth and charm ^throughout the performance. Instead of anydistracting attempts to display individual egos, these four musicians proved they are dedicated to theart of playing in a string quartet. They played the opening movement without overpowering oneanother and let the beautiful descending melody in the first violin shine through where it needed to.The Andante was a slower, more sombermovementwithlyricmelodies in all the voices. The theme returned frequently to a brief, understated arpeggio in the cello, showing Peter Wyrick's subtle restraint withinthe group and a mature ear for dynamic. "When I was younger I wanted to play fast and loud," Wyricksaid after the performance, "but playing well in a string quartet is something you come to when you aremore mature as a musician." Second on the program was Franz Joseph Haydn's String Quartet in CMinor, Op. 17, No. 4. The group made full use of every dynamic mark, passing musical phrases to one another with a care and ease that comes only after years of playing together. Violist Maria LambrosKannen said the quartet is good at the continual process of "tuning in" to one another, in practice and inperformance. "Before we go on stage, we know—alittle bit—what we're going to hear. Then we try tolisten to one another with fresh ears each time," Kannen said. Thehighlightoftheperformance was thethird movement of the second quartet by Mozart, the Quartet in G Major, K. 387. It exploited themusicians' ability to play as a single voice. Two or three of the players would lay down a rich,emotional bed of harmony, allowing the other players, in turn, to soar above or weave in and out. Theplayers would make eye contact with one another before ex- . changing the theme or continuing themelodies between themselves. It was easy to see and hear how personal and conversational this quartetcould be. The Ridge Quartet has won two major chamber music competitions. They were Quartet-in-Residence at the Spoleto Festival in Charleston, S. C, and they spent the summer at the Italian SpoletoFestival. In May of 1988 they became the youngest quartet to perform in Carnegie Hall. Wyrick saidhe doesn't despair that the word "young" is frequently mentioned before their name. "We're pretty young; our oldest member is 32. It just means we have so much repertoire ahead of us," Wyrick said. Theprogram Tuesday night stuck to the roots of the classical period, but presented some subtle surprise.Mozart's Quartet in C is an early quartet by the composer, written in Italy in 1772. It is often used as a practice piece, but rarely performed in concert by modern string quartets. Kannen said they decidedonMozart' s Quartet in C Major almost by whimsy. "We just thought it would be fun to work it upbecause it is passed over by so many other quartets," Kannen said. In addition to Kannen and Wyrick,the quartet includes Krista BennionFeeney andRobertRinehart, both on violin. To maintain a highstandard, the quartet only leams about 12 new pieces a year, and there is little available on recording.With a first-rate sound, however, and mature outlook on the future, more will surely be heard from theRidge Quartet "Everything is so fun," cellist Wyrick said, "and the thought of being together for thenext 20 years... is a real comfort." © © BACK TO THE FUTURE With Wayne's Texaco Service 734-8610 310LakewayDr. 734-8690 Syjtcm3 «jasoljnc The gasjhjgt;l[s_unsur£asscd^ f Engine Tune-UP"Y^I-iibe.

Tennis improves record By Suzi Zobrist staff reporter The Westernwomen's tennis team notched another win after hosting Skagit Valley Community College, on April9. The final score, 7-2, brings the Viking's overall record to 8-2. Although it was wet and cold, theweather didn' t hinder the teams' performance. In the singles, victories came from freshman EliseRosenblum in theNo.3 match and freshman Brenda Swigart in the No .4 match. Both doubles matcheswere won instraightsets.withfreshmanMelinda Castonguay and junior Carin Clow in the No.l match andSwigart teamed with Rosenblum in the No.2 match. Coach Jo Ann Andrews said she feels this season's tennis team is strong and with District Championships quickly approaching, she hopes for good weather to work on the team's improvement. "My goal for the team is to have them win districts and thenadvance on to nationals," Andrews said. "I see areas for improvement in the strategy of matches playedand we (the team) work on these changes. Any big changes will need to be worked on this summer."I'm really excited about the tennis team," team member Karen Richert said. "Everyone is reallysupportive of it, and it looks really promising for us." In order to "keep everyone sharp with their game," a challenge system has been designed. Player line-up is determined by Andrews, based on the setsplayed by the players. If players wish to advance and change their seating, they may challenge otherplayers in the seats they want. If the challenged players lose, they drop one seat and the victoriousplayers advance. "Everyone has been challenging matches lately," Richert said. "Everyone isincredibly close and there have been changes." With many home matches coming up this month, thetennis team is looking for support from Western students. "I didn't expect many spectators to be at thematch because of the weather, but as the team continues to win, hopefully more people will show up,"Andrews said. Kevin Bryant named director of marketing and promotions By Clayton Wright staffreporter Kevin Bryant was named Director of Marketing and Promotions for the Athletic DepartmentalWestern, a position which did not exist prior to its announcement March 25. The position was created to help supplement funding for the athletic department, which is partially subsidized by the state.Bryant, 32, will be in charge of creating a market plan for the department and increasing publicrelations. "Our focus next year will be to put more money in the program and more people in thestands," Bryant said. "We want to be the best entertainment value for your dollar north of Seattle."Bryant said in order to achieve the goals of the department, it will have to get people to attend gameseven if the team is losing. Bryant said he intends to add post-game dances, showcase prominentpersonalities, and give out promotional prizes. "We're not trying to create a circus because ourathletics are poor," Bryant said. "However, I feel we need a different approach to promotions outsidethe gym. Wewantpeople to wonder what's coming up next." After graduating from Western in 1980 with a bachelor's degree in speech communication, Bryant returned in 1990 to earn his master's degree instudent personnel administration. Bryant was actively involved in the local community in the last threeyears and has established many business contacts prior to returning to Western. With this experience,Bryant said he feels he understands fund raising from a non-profit viewpoint. "We're real fortunate to have Kevin to fill this position," Lynda Goodrich, Western director of athletics, said. "He brings a readyknowledge of Bellingham and Whatcom County, an understanding of the philosophy of athletics atWestern, and experience in marketing and promotion. You couldn't find a more enthusiasticambassador for our program than Kevin." Even though the position is labeled as a part-time job,Bryant admits it will be more of a full-time job. Bryant will also continue as assistant coach to BradJackson for the men's basketball team, a position he has occupied for the past four seasons. Bryant has also served as the athletic department's alumni relations representative the past two years and played a major role in the return of homecoming. From 1976 to 1980,Bryant played basketball for the Vikings and remains the school's fourth all-time leading scorer with 1,310 points. He was an all-district and all-conference selection and participated in the first Olympic Sports Festival in 1978. ---------- Western Front - 1991 April 12 - Page 10 ---------- 10 The Western Front OPINION April 12,1991 FRONTLINE Boycott of grapes could help save thechildren His voice was loud and clear as he spoke to a charged crowd of more than 500 people, gatheredin the Viking Union Lounge to hear him on Wednesday. Cesar Chavez, president of the United FarmWorkers of America, had a simple message: Stop buying grapes (as well as Chateau Ste. Michelle wine)and help save our children. If an estimated 3 percent of wine buyers and 9-10 percent of grapeconsumers stop purchasing these products, the current grape boycott will be successful. The purpose ofthe boycott is to pressure vineyard owners to meet three demands: 1) ban the use of the five mostharmful, cancer causing pesticides used in grape growing (Captan, Parathion, Phosdrin, Dinoseb, andMethyl Bromide), 2) implement a joint UFW/grower testing program to detect poisonous residues ongrapes sold in stores and allow the results to be made public, 3) establish free and fair elections and good faith collective bargaining for farm workers. This is the third grape boycott Chavez has orchestrated. The first, implemented in 1960s, was successful because 17.5 million people boycotted grapes. Successfulboycotting of California grapes led to a grape contract that included a ban on DDT, Dieldrin, and Aldrin in1970. The current boycott, which began in 1988, is entering a critical stage in which increased awareness and support is needed more than ever. Extensive spraying of Captan and other pesticides is killing farmworkers and causing cancer and birth defects in McFarland, Calif., and other "cancer cluster" townsthroughout the San Joaquin Valley. In McFarland, where the cancer rate for children age 4 to 12 is 800percent higher than the national average, a square block exists in which one child in every home hasfallen victim to cancer. As Chavez said, the workers who suffer from pesticide inhalation "areparakeets for the market place." The residue from those pesticides remains on those grapes and isingested by thousands of Americans. The state of California is in the pocket of agri-businesses and theEnvironmental Protection Agency has become just one more bureaucratic wheel in the political machine.As a result grapes with Captan residue levels of as much as 39 parts per million are legally sold in themarket place. This is 10 times higher than acceptable pesticide levels on European produce. The EPAhas inconsistently banned the use of Captan on other crops but refuses to stop its use in grape and grain production. The reasons for allowing the use of deadly pesticides is purely economic and the result isdeath for thousands of people across America—unless we act now. The American people blocked theuse of DDT by banning grapes in the '60s and they have the power to do it again. As Chavez slated, thegovernment won't stop it and legislation won't stop it, so the market place has become "our court of lastresort." Eight hundred thousand children under the age of 12 are working the Califomian grapefields—fields sprayed with deadly pesticides. "Help them and give them a chance," Chavez said.

NEA:victim of political opportunism i By Michael Anthony Staff reporter have a cousin in Congress andalthough we'venevermet,Ifeel I've come to know him well. He is Representative Richard "Dick" Armey(Republican, Texas), a frequent guest on television news programs. A man with a mission, Armey isseeking the abolition of the National Endowment For the Arts. A stocky, media-friendly conservative,Armey is riding the waves of a tumultuous battle over federal subsidy of art some consider to be anti-religious, obscene, or otherwise objectionable—an issue that enables him to score easy points with hisconstituents, and achieve much craved national attention. Armey's infatuation with the NEA fracasseems to be a matter of convenience rather than conviction. He has positioned himself strategically andsafely in the eye of a raging hurricane, within an issue mainly popular for its obscenity and censorshipaspects. In earlier television appearances, Armey uttered his disapproval of taxpayer dollars fundingsuch works as the homo-erotic photographs of Robert Mapplethorpe. In recent interviews though, Armeyhas modified his position. Transforming his view to one of general distaste for all federal art subsidies,Armey now claims to have no quarrel with controversial art. Publicly, at least, he has exchanged hismoral outrage for what passes as simple, frugal budget consciousness. He resists the label of censorunder the guise of a budget cutter. An intelligent political strategist, Armey wears two masks. All atonce, he is viewed by conservatives as a staunch defender of moral values, and by moderates as aprotector of the public trough— allowing him to accept the appreciation of happy conservative watchdogsand reject the charges of liberal art supporters with equal grace (by claiming he is actually trying to putan end to the bias and censorship of the NEA). To middle America he is not perceived as a threat to civilliberties, to moralists he is the threat they are looking for, and to the arts community he is hard to pindown. Armey deflects criticism by referring to the NEA itself as a "censorship organization" that makessubjective judgements about the value of art all the time. Looking at the present system of art subsidy, itis true. The NEA, sometimes as a result of pressure and sometimes out of bureaucratic self-interest,does act as a censor of the arts. It is true that, as long as we federally fund art, we are engaged incensorship unavoidably. It is among the policymakers that a shift in thinking needs to occur. Art should not be subsidized. It is the artist that needs and deserves our support. The National Endowment shouldnot be destroyed, just reorganized. What is overlooked among all the smoke and hot air surrounding this debate is a growing misconception of the arts. A simple view is art is merely attractive, decorative, orsimply something that sells. But art is not only what is publicly palatable or commercially viable. Artcanalso be disturbing; a window to another culture (or counter-culture), or even a different See Anthony, page 11 Drugs: an unnecessary crutch A By Jeff Flugel Staff reporter 11 right, let's get this straight —taking drugs to stimulate relaxation and creativity is a normal activity?It's common, maybe, but is itsomething to be endorsed? The campus majority seems to think so. I, for one, do not. I heartily agreewith those who feel we need to keep a watchful eye on the U.S. government's anti-drug campaign beforeit squashes all First Amendment freedoms beneath its iron heel, but to support drug use as a positive,necessary means of stress relief is ridiculous, not to mention disturbing. We all know the negative effects of drug use. I won't argue against the positive medical and psychological benefits, for they have beenproven. But occasional drug use totters constantly on the brink of dependency. Using marijuana or"harder" drugs to alter consciousness or to relax after a stressful day's work is not a natural technique.Fitness experts have proclaimed for years that normal, moderate exercise and biofeedback techniquesare the best and most natural means to physical and psychological harmony. Exercise, meditation,yoga, good nutrition, adequate sleep— in other words, a healthy lifestyle— produce all the natural"highs" an individual needs. Let's face it: clean living has been proven time and again to lead to all-around superior mental, emotional and physical health and performance. Drugs are a crutch, a more insidiousand precarious means to an end. Yes, for ages other cultures have used drugs as integral parts of theirtheological and philosophi-. cal lifestyles. However, they have relied even more on physical activity, diet,and self-control to achieve and maintain their peaceful, harmonious existence. The claim that drug use isinherent to the creative process is spurious. For every artistic or literary giant who relied on controlledsubstances for inspiration, there are dozens of others who never used them and who would have beenoffended to think that their own abilities were not enough to suitably express their genius. Whether theyare illegal and come in little plastic bags or legal and come in cans or bottles marked Bud or JackDaniels, the bottom line is that drugs are not necessary. The human body is an amazing organism.Properly treated, it can function at incredible levels of performance. Foreign substances are just that:foreign, alien and not needed. ---------- Western Front - 1991 April 12 - Page 11 ---------- April 12,1991 T FTTFR S The Western Front 11 From Anthony, page 10 lifestyle. Art is a means ofemotional and thoughtful communication. It is awesome, intriguing, and miraculous—even when itoffends. For those who appreciate art and the artist, a system of public support is essential, filling a voidthat could otherwise be filled only by private interests. But a government-as-curator system of "morallysensitive" selection is totally unacceptable. The current NEA runs as if it is commissioning art for anemperor, being careful not to offend, when what it really should be doing is simply existing as a means ofsupport for artists. What constitutes art is most properly judged individually by those who create andappreciate it, not by government bureaucrats or the narrow, money-guided interests of corporate boardmembers. Faced with the option of eradicating the NEA, as Armey has suggested; or providing publicsupport to the artist without restriction of creati ve expression, it is the latter that seems more prudent and rational. Abolishing federal funding of the arts would be the ultimate form of censorship: censorshipthrough deprivation—a wide-reaching form of censorship affecting all art, whether controversial or not.Hopefully, with perseverance, the arts community can inform the public of the need for federal support. atyour pace Liberation possible only through Jesus, not pot Dear Editor. I smoked pot for three yearsbefore experiencing a radical shift in lifestyle from "joints to Jesus," and I can agree with Kevin Keyes'opinion in the Western Front — getting high was indeed a "very pleasurable experience."... But after Imet the person who changed my life forever, I soon learned there was a sharp distinction between meresensation and truth, and between pleasure and real joy... In his article, Keyes says that people have trieda wide variety of substances in pursuit of a "few laughs" and says that marijuana is one of them. He thengoes on to say, "Nothing in life is perfect, but marijuana is close." This is true in one sense, but false inanother. There is something in life that is perfect, but nothing in this world can produce it, for a very simple but powerful reason: We are made in the image of God, not in the image of nature. We also have a soul,which means we were not made for this world — so why live as if we were? If you are seeking happinessthrough pot, you will always be in pursuit of it, but you will never find it. ...True liberation is complete andsustained. If it does not liberate fully, it is not true liberation. But it is obvious that getting stoned neveraccomplishes true liberation from boredom; if it did, the pot smoker would be able to quit after one joint— but in fact, he smokes it again and again... The "Frontline" commentary suggests the legitimacy ofdrug use in religious ceremonies, but it is a mistake to suppose (as I once did) that one can experienceGod through drugs. God is a person, not a thing. He relates to us as a father relates to his child. We dealwith him through trust and humility, not through a brass pipe... —Daniel Carollo VOC homophobia issueremains unresolved Work at our place, Dear Editor: The racial graffiti found on a calendar in the office ofthe Veterans Outreach Center, and the subsequent resignation of VOC coordinator Tim Osterholm, is ashocking reminder of the level of bigotry on our campus. Certainly someone with Osterholm's principleshas no place in anything calling itself an "outreach center," regardless of his other qualifications. Pleaserecall that last quarter it was Mr. Osterholm whose homophobia and sexism drove him to request an officeon another floor to get away from the Women's Center and the Gay and Lesbian Alliance (Jan. 29Western Front). And he wanted out of the AS Human Resource Program as well, so he wouldn't have tolisten to them "talk about gay rights, feminist issues, and the like." Apologies have not followed eitherincident. Instead, VOC employee Tom Walsh claimed "...you can't ask people to curb the way they think. We're adults now; we already have that Mind-set." With Osterholm taking his prejudices back into thecampus community, has bigotry within the VOC quietly slipped back into the closet? And have the staffmerely learned to hide their feelings in order to protect themselves from those who might be hurt oroffended? No university needs an outreach group reaching out with the poison of bigotry. If Osterholm didnot write the offending graffiti that precipitated his resignation, then the author presumably is still there,along with the mind-set Walsh so clearly • described. As a veteran, I find the remarks of Mr.Osterholm and Mr. Walsh—and the tacit acceptance of their prejudice by the other VOC staffmembers— a disgrace to the military, to the college, and to the community. The continued operation ofthis program should be predicated on the completion by the staff of a course in sensitivity training and apublic apology from the VOC including a statement reaffirming their principles of equality. -Mark W.EllisHeavy metal rock stars: Don't like 'em? Don't listen! Dear Editors, Why are you wasting your time rantingand raving about what heavy metal rock stars do on stage? If you are so bothered about theirperformances, just don't attend them. Is it okay for Mick Jagger, Prince, Elvis, and Chuck Berry to perform in a sexually titillating manner, while it isn't okay for heavy metal musicians? Lighten up. Let the publicdecide if they like it or not. Next, you'll be claiming that Ozzy Osborne and Judas Priest are responsiblefor teen suicide. I am disappointed that the Front would waste its time on such garbage instead offocusing on more important issues such as the merciless slaughter of Kurds and Shiites by SaddamHussein or more relevant issues such as state funding for education. —Phil Braver, ElectronicsTechnology We know that sometimes you have the kind of work that only you can do.
