The committee has prepared thousands of leaflets and fact sheets forstudents to take back to their home communities for distribution during Christmas vacation, BernieWeiner, a committee member, said. The leaflets are available at the Associated Students office in theViking Union or at a meeting at 3 p.m. Thursday in L-4.

An-amendment easily passed last Tuesday'sstudent legislature meeting deleting all references to the long-fought demand. Student government hadcalled for Karp's resignation on the grounds that "all channels of communication had been severedbetween Karp and student leaders." Karp is one of three professional members of the Viking Unionadvisory staff. Student government officials said that they chose to drop the demand after "new channels of communication have been opened and it was felt that differences can be resolved in a new manner." The demand for Karp's resignation was only one of Fairhaven might withdraw from AS In an attempt togain more funds for instruction, Fairhaven students are investigating the possibility of withdrawing fromthe Associated Students. Insufficient funding by the state will otherwise restrict the Fairhaven programnext year. Only two faculty will be added, despite an increased enrollment of approximately 150. Littlemoney will be available for expansion of audio-visual, art or library facilities. Of the $88 per quartertuition, not more than $13 is designated for student activities and athletics. It is this $13 per quarter perFairhaven student that Fairhaven would earmark for its own use. Based on a probable enrollment ofaround 450, approximately $17,500 per year « would be freed. Money so obtained would be used forhiring additional faculty. This show of initiative may also favorably influence those foundations whichFairhaven is approaching for funding. The probable effect of this withdrawal from Associated Studentswould be Fairhaven exclusion from all or most AS sponsored activities and athletics. Fairhaven students would pay non-student rates for AS films, dances and concerts, as well as for games. Fairhavenparticipation in programs of the department of continuing studies and other Western departments wouldnot be affected. In a poll to determine whether Fairhaven students would favor such a move, 88 per cent of those responding supported withdrawal. three wide-ranging student government demands to thecollege administration Nov. 18. Student leaders are basically pleased with President Charles Flora'sanswers. Flora granted permission for the student representative to the Board of Trustees to attend allmeetings and also agreed that a negotiated level of student fees will be used as a funding base for theAssociated Students. The final portion of the third AS demand called for student government control over the hiring, firing and setting of salaries for the professional Viking Union advisory staff. This finaldemand is still being negotiated. on during our Christmas vacation," Jerry Field, chairman of themoratorium committee, said. The leaflets include articles by Sen. Charles Goodell (R.-N.Y.), introducing a resolution calling for the total withdrawal of American troops by the end of 1970; Walter Lippmann,calling for a negotiated U.S. withdrawal, and a Vietnam fact sheet prepared by the Republican PolicyCommittee. The moratorium committee is also urging people not to participate in the usual Christmasbuying this year. Shoppers are encouraged to buy items from peace organizations and to participate inthe Bellingham Faire Exchange, to be held this Saturday, where gifts can be exchanged. Items youwish to trade may be brought to the old bank building at 11th and Harris Streets, South Bellingham,beginning at 10 a.m. Items in need of repair should be taken to 1019 High Street. The buying boycottand Faire Exchange have three aims, according to Weiner: 1. Provide an alternative to the usualChristmas "junkie spree where we are taught by the economy that newness of a gift is to be equatedwith Christian love"; 2. Protest the Vietnam war in a visible way; and 3. Build and strengthen thecommunity of peace in Bellingham. Volunteers are needed to join the moratorium committee in goingdowntown Friday to help distribute leaflets and literature advertising the Christmas buying boycott and Faire Exchange. Those interested should meet at 10 a.m. Friday in the VU foyer. Literature andidentifying armbands will be distributed then. Other activities planned by the moratorium committee forthis month include a symbolic Christmas Eve demonstration and a mass mailing to local Bellinghamcitizens. Student J.D. board forming Procedures have been started to implement the development of anIntermediate All-Student Judiciary Board which hopefully will begin to function at the start of or soon after the start of Winter quarter. The college administration has approved establishment of the board andstudent member applications are now being accepted. Application forms are available at the Dean ofStudent office. Clearance for the procedures has been given informal approval by the collegerepresentative from the Attorney General's Office, with limitations placed on the right of this group tosuspend or expel students from college. The purview of this group would be to make certain sanctionson students and to r e c o m m e n d to the administration the suspension and expulsion of students.The Dean of Men and Dean of Women are forming the board, which will consist of eight studentmembers, at least two of which must be of the opposite sex of the other six. The jurisdiction of the board will be: all appeals and referrals from the residence hall judicial boards; violations of college r e g u l a ti o n s outside the jurisdiction of the residence hall boards, including (1) violations occurring when two ormore residences are involved, (2) violations by individuals who are not residing in college residence h a ll s , (3) violations at College-sponsored events. The board will assume the disciplinary role the Dean ofMen and Dean of Women now handle; with the Deans referring cases to the board. Dean of WomenMary Robinson lauded the board as being "a chance for students to create something." The studentscan reason and interpret the law themselves because they have a better ability to reason amongthemselves, she said. Ray Romine, dean of men, believes that in an institution of education adisciplinary system should be educational, not punitive. ---------- Western Front - 1969 December 9 - Page 2 ---------- Western Front Tuesday, December 9, 1969 Miss Lorraine Powers retires as Western's Dean of Womenafter 28 years of faithful service. -photo by gable Powers ends Dean of Women post Dean of WomenLorraine Powers leaves her post at the end of this quarter, after 28 years of service to Western.

Dr. NellThompson, ad hoc committee chairman, explained that the original committee charge had been todevelop criteria for the elementary minor, but was now unanimous in the need for a major. "In terms ofthe legitimate aspects of our proposal, the state is between standards at this time so it would be a goodtime to attempt some innovations," Dr. Thompson said. She also pointed out that in a telephone surveyof teaching graduates of Eastern, Central and the University of Washington, Western had the highestnumber of graduates who were not hired. This is a result of not having an adequate background in thearea they will work in, it was believed. The committee urged formation of a "stop-gap type of program,"to be listed in the 1970-71 catalog, and the formation of an ad hoc committee to develop the elementary major. Two years ago a similar committee had advised them to stop what they were doing in theelementary major in existence then, and that the present proposals might be "getting us right back intothe position we were in previously by trying to institute this by September, 1970," Dr. R.D. Brown said.In voting to endorse the committee proposals, accepting the 1970-71 target date in principle, the Council referred the report to the education department for specific program proposals on elementary education. Abortion to be BOQ topic The Terrible Choice: The Abortion Dilemma was chosen Book of the Quarter(BOQ) for Winter, William H. O. Scott, BOQ Committee chairman, said last week. The book is a reportof an international conference on abortion, Scott said. The selection was made after Scott polled thecommittee members, the chairman said. "We had been waiting for the arrival of a book which still hasn't come," Scott said. Rather than select a book without first reviewing it, Scott decided to ask thecommittee's approval of a book on another topic. Militarism might be the topic for a future BOQselection, he said. "The book we have on militarism is good but the one we are waiting for might bebetter," he said. At press time, the committee had not outlined a program schedule for the BOQ. * * * ** * * * * * * * * * * IT'S CHRISTMAS HUBERT'S * featuring nationally known * brands of cosmetics andtoiletries * * for men and women AUBERT I { DRUG CO PRESCRIPTION SPECIALISTS BellinghamNational Bank Building M Mi. 734434^ Cornwall and Holly gt; * * * * * * * * * * * * * * • * * * * * * * * * ** * ' .

Five candidates competedfor the four seats available. Ron Roberge led the candidates with 393 votes. Other winners were FrankTranter, 368; Gary Sharp, 345, and Mike Tasker, 297. Rob Thon received 295 votes, failing to win a seat. Votes were counted Friday but due to a recount, results were not released until yesterday. ASlegislature requests journalism major here The AS legislature has asked President Charles Flora toestablish more journalism courses and a journalism major here. The legislature pointed out that agrowing number of college publications, significant interest in journalism as a major course of study anda lack of opportunities for advancement in writing fields were underlying reasons for its request. Theresolution, which passed unanimously last Tuesday, was proposed by Legislators Wally Sigmar andDale Gruver. CHARLES WASHINGTON Black Students Union Are you part of the problem or thesolution? Are you one of the multi-millions of people in the world (America?) that are indifferent towardthe massive killing, foul play and violations of life in civilization"! Have you ever considered that yourcomfort and luxury of life depends upon another's misery, toil and deprivation?? Why do you supposethere are such things as slums, ghettos or poverty? Do you condone another human body being burnedor in any other way redeemed for the comfort of your futile lives or materialism? \s life a merecommodity to be regulated by the powers that be of man's technology? Is there a fact? American life istragically devastating. This society is our starting and stepping stone for the combatting of imperialism,fascism and world-wide political oppression. The norm and values of this demented America are hell-bent in its dogma. The life-style of America is exhausted and ill-conceived. America was founded upon ahe, that "White lie," and lies have been the predication of every institutional enterprise in this country'sentity (starting with middle class values . . . which are predominantly White when it comes to attainingthem). Middle class and upper class aspirants are basically to be held responsible for the maintaining of apartheid, imperialistic, and materialistic systems. Here in America, the home of the racist imperialistand dog eaters, we have a major amount of the world power and suppression established in our midst.Persons interested in working on the Western Front as Head photographer for next quarter shouldcontact the Western Front office in the basement of the Viking Union.

Open 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday -Saturday It is of dire urgency for contented, racist, apathetic White and Black people to realize that thepowers that be are dependent upon a scapegoat. A whole lot of 'em! Right now, the White powerstructure is wielding power right and left and the little White child gets more crumbs off the floor thannon-Whites. The Black man in America is the effigy, but what happens when he is exhausted? This c ar n i v o r o u s country is politically, economically and socially dependent upon a sacrifice, a human'sflesh and blood is the sustenance of its foul entity. One must realize with speed of fear that he is notfree. America is not to continue in its present course. A major problem that faces American peopletoday is race. Racism in this country is merely a tool to keep the masses of ethnic backgrounds fromfocusing in on the real problem—the initial sin of man dominating man. The powers that be are awarethat someone has to be slightly favored—slightly, a difference in the approach of domination butessentially the end is achieved. The White man must realize his poverty of the mind is a far worse thingthan being materially without. The Black man is being maimed and murdered here in America becausehe is not free and he aspires to be without the burden of the White man. In countries abroad, the Blackman is bearing guns to annihilate any intruder upon his sacred ground of suppression. As was saidearlier, the Black man is not free here in American society. His every move is calculated beforehand bya White hand. It is at a very crucial point . . . if the Black man can relieve himself of racial conflictions or suppress them and be willing to call on the aid of the child of the oppressor-the White child-to come tohelp him destroy his White father. As I said, it is at a very crucial point. Aardvark loves bookworms ^Island in the Sound, a non- .-fiction book that explores Puget Sound's island life, is now in a Ballantinepaperback for $1.25.

Some students can rejoice and plan for an un-draft-inhibited future.Some must resign themselves to eventual induction in the army. The fairness of the lottery isdebatable. It is true that it was up to chance; those who drew low numbers will be inducted, those with relatively high numbers will probably escape the service. This is fair as far as the chance principlegoes but one factor which isn't fair is the ll-S college deferment. This deferment apparently will continue in effect, making it possible for the low number people to postpone their military tour. While this is arelief to those on this campus with low numbers, it still must be realized that this deferment isdiscriminatory: it allows those with enough money to go to college and avoid the draft; those withoutsufficient funds are inducted. To be really fair, the Selective Service would abolish all draft deferments forother than health or hardship reasons beginning with next year. We suppose this idea is anathema tothose of us with low numbers, but since the debate over the fairness of the draft has resulted in this half-way lottery change, it is obvious that if the government wanted to be really fair they would abolish student deferments as well. When one reached 19 he would sweat out the draft for a year, then forget it. Hewould not be drafted after that except in case of a national emergency. This seems as fair as the ideathat once was circulated suggesting that all young men be inducted at 18 or 19, even if disabled in some way. Everyone would serve in some way, be it a desk job or front-line action. It would be nice if theSupreme Court would find involuntary servitude unconstitutional in the near future, but alas, dreaming won't do any good. An all volunteer army would be nice, and may be instituted once the Vietnam warends. If indeed it does. Until then the law of chance will determine who will live and who will die, who willlose a limb and who will not. —Mike Gowrylow An ode to the other silent majority The only stars tohang in black skies over Vietnam this Christmas will be parachute flares dropped out of aircraftsearching for more humanity to destroy. The only bright green and red lights will flash in the cockpit ofa gunship helicopter, signaling the pilot that his death-dealing rockets are ready to fire. The only cheerysmiles will be pasted on the faces of Red Cross workers selling cigarettes in a field hospital crammedwith wounded. The only sleigh rides will be in the back of an armored personnel carrier winding its waythrough bomb craters on another search and destroy mission. Once again Christmas crosses the pathof war. Perhaps for a millisecond in history men will lay down their weapons to observe a paper peace, only to pick up their rifles and bombs and take up where they left off. Someday, maybe, men of different colors, religions, tongues and ideologies will crawl out of the muddy trenches of misunderstandingand discover that it's less bloody to give peace a chance.

V . ^ V . 0 , W gt; ' ^ o o , ' v . ^ . *JI It's happening SST- a rational need? JOHN MILES contributor The SST developmentproject raises far-reaching and critical value issues. Anthony Wayne Smith of the National ParksAssociation brilliantly summarizes these issues in a recent issue of National Parks Magazine. This SSTproblem is of such importance that we should consider his comments at some length. "Measured against any rational scale of human values, the SST is not desirable, but highly objectionable. "The basic valuejudgments, the telic presuppositions, on which the SST project is based, like too many moral postulatesof the industrial society, East and West, are false, and may lead to catastrophic results. "Moving forwardwith SST presupposes speed as a value. "The true values in transportation would be comfort, safety,convenience, and the leisurely enjoyment of the journey. "Air travel at moderate speeds and altitudes, with the magnificient views of the world it affords, can be an inspiring experience; high-speed, high-altitudeflights eradicate this experience. "SST presupposed proximity as a value; Tokyo, Buenos Aires, andLondon are to be brought as close as possible to New York. "Judging by the weekend exodus, mostAmericans think their big cities are hell from which to escape. "We doubt that many Japanese andArgentinians are anxious to hurry into Manhattan. "Most non-human animals have better sense thanpresent-day humans; the birds space themselves out; distance, not proximity, will be a guiding value inbuilding the hoped-for world community in the generations ahead. "Noise will be an intolerableaccompaniment of SST. Sonic booms 50 miles wide will trail their destruction across continents andoceeans, shattering the peace of the city, countryside, and wilderness. "The ear of industrial man isbeing deafened physically by the surrounding noise; his organism as a whole, physical and psychic, may seem to be acquiring tolerance, but profound injury is more probable. "The values of silence and quietude must be re-established in place of noise and tolerance for noise. "The destruction of the life-environmentthat will be wrought by the SST will not be limited to sonic booms. Vast Supersonic jetports will beneeded, leveling farmland, forest, wilderness, and human habitations. "The recently proposed Floridajetport is but one horrible example. "More gravely, the SST project is based on competition as a value,whereas all the forces of history move us imperatively toward cooperation instead. "We should becollaborating internationally with other nations having air transport facilities in developing a world-widetransportation system, not competing ruthlessly in the waste of resources and the ruination of the earth."Finally, there is a basic presupposition of impotence, of national powerlessness, in our handling of thismatter. "It is said that we must join in the competition, lest others capture the leadership or bankrupt thenation by draining away foreign exchange. "But what is needed is competence, not impotence-the ability to shape historical events to humane purposes." Welj said, Mr. Smith!, . . . ,, . . , , . . . , . . . .,._._ ---------- Western Front - 1969 December 9 - Page 5 ---------- Tuesday, December 9, 1969 Western Front feedbackfeedbackfeedbackfeedbackfeedbackfeedba Landlord defends withheld damage deposits Editor: I would like to reply to the three students, Vicki Gaunt,Cyndie Tipton and Pam Collins, who wrote to you complaining about the amount they were charged fordamage. I am the student landlord they were complaining about. The apartment was furnished and allthe utilities were paid for $125.00 a month. All four bedrooms were also furnished and the rent was thesame for either three or four girls. They chose to have three, otherwise the rent would have been $31.25a month each. Does this sound like the over-crowded and high-priced rentals for students? Theircomplaint, however, was the amount they were charged for the damage they admitted causing. Firstthey said they were charged $15.00 for one panel of a curtain which they had set on fire. The living room contains three windows, thus six panels, and anyone with even an elementary knowledge of sewingknows that you cannot purchase the same material a year later, therefore all six panels had to bereplaced. Also, someone has to make and hang these curtains and labor does have a value. Next wehave the cigarette burns. The worst burn did cover approximately one square foot of the rug. What dothey suggest—that I cut it out and leave a hole in the rug? Furthermore, one of the burns in the tabletop was nearly 3/4 of an inch deep and about two inches in diameter. That does not sound like a minorcigarette burn, does it? The burn in the couch arm can only be repaired by removing a portion of material from the back of the couch and re weaving it into the burned hole. This service is not done free!Perhaps the rug with its seven burns could be bought at the Goodwill for $15.00. I believe that Goodwillfurniture is inadequate for student housing. Students who suggest that this type of furniture is sufficientcertainly cannot expect an improvement in the deplorable sub-standard housing that exists in the area.They go on to say that I am a struggling student who owns my own home and car. What my personalstruggles are and what personal property I have is completely irrelevant as to whether they should payfor damage they admitted having done. They also said, "How could he sympathize with us—he doesn't know poverty." I think most students will agree that another problem in the housing crisis is theshortage of housing. These girls decided that they did not want a fourth girl and left the fourth bedroomvacant. Anyone who is willing to pay the extra amount of rent rather than have another roommate iscertainly not a poverty case! In twelve weeks they caused eleven significant burns; in my opinion this iscarelessness. Their letter and this letter is sound evidence of the careless and irresponsible actions of a few of Western's students. Clearly there is a housing crisis. The sub-standard housing must beimproved and the over-charging of rent has to be stopped. Illegitimate complaints will only lead to afurther separation of landlord and tenant. Honest and responsible action on the part of students as wellas landlords is necessary if the current housing crisis is to be improved. Gary McDonald Suggestsreasons for no cigarette ban Editor: I find it ironic that the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare has banned cyclamates—I note that part of the ban was lifted recently—because some have beenshown to cause cancer in rats, yet has not banned cigarettes. As we have been informed by the samedepartment, cigarettes are, of course, a definite and dangerous threat to health and life when used over a long period. Ho-hum. So are automobiles. There are several reasons why there is no ban. First, thetobacco industry is controlled by a handful of powerful men who would put up nearly as big a fuss at any attempt to shut down their plants as Ford and friends would should a nationwide ban on internal-combustion engines ever be called for (and that time may be closer than we think). Besides, if thetobacco men could not sell tobacco, our benevolent government would undoubtedly subsidize them fortheir loss. Second, the Southern Congressmen would no more allow such a ban than they would allow a ban on the use of cotton! Third, and I think the strongest reason, is that the public requires more thanjust a report from the Surgeon General to get up tight. Even though a heavy smoker realizes the danger, the realization is at a "head" level and not a gut level. If he found that he himself had emphysema, or ifsomeone close to him died from lung cancer or had to have his larynx removed, the guy would have agut level of realization. But, unfortunately, perhaps he could not quit even with a strong desire to do soafter years of the habit. Even if there was a ban, think of the black market that would develop. It wouldmake the prohibition era seem like nothing. No, I doubt if there ever will be a ban on the use of tobacco, and I doubt even more if such a ban would work. This brings up the question, does our government havethe right to legislate against slow suicide? But, smokers, don't say you haven't been warned.

The item of prime importance for almost all mymale (and many female) friends today is what numbers everyone has in the pool. I want to state that Ihave no concern for my number, or anyone else's. We now accept a new method of determining whowill be forced into the illegal, brutal, degrading and immoral military of the United States. As long asanyone is being forced to plan or execute the death of human beings as an integral part of the worldpolicy of this country, I cannot be proud to be a part of it. I consider the fact that some men can nowplan their lives without fear of having to take part in the institutionalized war our nation lives, to befortunate. But until no man is conscripted and force is rejected as a means of solving world problems, Icannot be happy about such minor reforms as a draft lottery. It makes no difference to me whether Irefuse to kill as number one or number one thousand in the lottery. As long as this type of oppressionexists in any form I will oppose it.

In a letter to the College, the A. S. WickConstruction Co. gave assurances that barring unforeseen circumstances, four dorms would be turnedover to Fairhaven by Dec. 31. Delays could be caused by poor weather, slow delivery by suppliers orlabor problems. The addition of these four to the four dorms already occupied will enable all Fairhavenstudents to move on campus and out of the Hidden Valley trailers. One dorm will also be available forhousing Western students. According to Dick Norris, assistant dean for student affairs, room changeswill be made to remove overcrowded conditions in the occupied dorms. An attempt will be made to b a la n c e t h e dorms co-educationally and by classes. Any students who are to be moved from theirpresent room will be notified before the end. of this quarter, Norris said.

The ASlegislature last week resolved to cut all homecoming expenditures from future student budgets. Theresolution followed a steady decline in student interest for homecoming events, according to studentleaders. Legislator Wally Sigmar explained that college students are more interested in activities whichare relevant to their education. "Homecoming is dead and we are beginning a new college era," Sigmarsaid. Legislator Gary Evans told the student legislature that he took a personal poll of students a n dfound that an "overwhelming majority" were outright against homecoming. The resolution said that funds previously earmarked for homecoming could be better used in other areas of direct student interest andconcern. Two legislators, Mimi Brooks and Gail Denton, cast the only dissenting votes on theresolution. Marxist expert to speak on revolution Dr. Herbert Aptheker, the national director for theAmerican Institute for Marxist Studies, will address the student body and general public in the MusicAuditorium at 3 p.m. tomorrow. Tabbed as the Activities Commission's featured speaker for the Fallquarter, Aptheker will lecture on "The Nature of Revolution: A Marxist View." A p t h e k e r , a leadingtheoretician for the American Communist Party, has held a position in the party since 1939, has playeda prominent role in civil rights, civil liberties and anti-war efforts over the past three decades. The guestspeaker has authored more than a dozen books on Afro-American history, Marxism and relatedsubjects. His book, Mission to Hanoi, is presently on sale at the campus bookstore. I n c l u d e damong the outstanding accomplishments of Aptheker's career are a trip to North Vietnam in 1965 andthe breaking of several speaker bans at many universities during the late 1950's and early 1960's. Healso helped the defeat in the U.S. Supreme Court in 1964 of portions of the McCarran Act, whichprohibited Communists from traveling abroad. morefeedbackmorefeedbackmo Ellis urges publication ofmerit increases Editor: As a taxpayer in this state and as a member of the academic community ofWestern, I strongly urge that you make public the names of those members of the faculty who recentlyreceived merit increases along with the criteria used in identifying the recipients. I am aware that lists of recipients are made available only to the departments of which the recipients are members. This is not, however, the same as a published list widely and easily available to the entire academic community.Not long ago Skagit Valley College published in the Bellingham Herald the list of those members of itsfaculty who had earned merit increases. Western can do no less. As a matter of fact, all salaries are amatter of public record if one wishes to go to the trouble of checking them in official material fromOlympia. The quasi-secrecy which surrounds the names of faculty chosen for merit increases can onlygive rise to charges of political log-rolling and academic nepotism. Indeed, precisely such thinking hasbeen expressed from time to time by responsible faculty on our campus. As a taxpayer I have a vestedinterest in knowing how these monies have been spent and under what criteria the expenditures weremade. It is my understanding that the Faculty Council has requested the wide publication of thesenames. I urge you to honor that request. Frederick E. Ellis Professor Education Praises Hartwell, ACfor Fall activities Editor: This Fall there have been a number of criticisms (some voiced in your paper) ofthe Activities Commissioner and his staff and activities.

Dr. Ronald J. Taylor, associate professor of biology and chairman of the ArboretumCommittee, spoke to the group of interested students and faculty concerning the need to developSehome Hill in a way that was useful to both the city and the college. Taylor displayed an architect'sdrawing showing one proposed development which would include green houses, picnic areas, ponds,walking and bicycle paths, public rest rooms, a lookout tower and an amphitheater. He explained howthis development would serve the community as a park and also serve the college as a place to studyplant communities native to the Northwest as well as those communities which are not normally foundhere. A good example of typical natural flora—hemlock, alder and fir—is already growing freely on thecollege-owned land on the west side of Sehome Hill. Plans call for developing other plant communitiessuch as the deciduous forests of the Midwest, Taylor explained. Garden clubs and other civil activitiesmight take on planting or helping to finance the project, he said. Pool, table tennis tourneys startCampus-wide games of pool and table tennis are being held in the VU lounge this week. "Twenty-fivedollars will be awarded to each winner of double elimination tournaments for both pool and table tennis," Bob Force, recreation chairman, said. The Brunswick Corporation has installed a new table for theevent. LIGHTING LAMPS across Railroad Avenue from the Leopold Motor Inn "We will place anemphasis on the ecological approach to development," Taylor said. The biggest problem facing thecommittee is getting the "city fathers" interested in the proposal. Herb Olson of the city park boardsenses that the college wants to make a "land grab," according to Taylor. Plans call for, the city tocommit Sehome Hill for the college to develop as an arboretum. Olson believes that Western shoulddevelop the land it already owns. The strip of land at the western and northern slopes of Sehome Hillwould not be easily adapted since it is so steep and much more land than that owned by the collegewould be needed. Taylor mentioned use of the LID land east of Sehome Hill in the future. There hasbeen some "chatter" about developing Sehome Hill as a ski area using artificial plastic snow, accordingto Taylor. "A minimum cost of $1 million has been estimated," Taylor said. Barney Goltz, director ofcampus planning, has said that the city would probably have to float a bond, according to Taylor. Taylorsaid he believes that money could be obtained from state and federal matching funds. The ArboretumCommittee was conceived by college president Charles Flora two years ago and has received fundsfrom the state to study the arboretum proposal. The committee meets at 4 p.m. the first and thirdTuesdays of each month in OM-C. EQC meets at 4 p.m. Wednesdays in VU-354. Tomorrow's meetingwill be to organize activities and plan speakers for Winter quarter.
