1972_0208 ---------- Western Front - 1972 February 8 - Page 1 ---------- The WESTERN FRONT Vol. 64 No. 26 Western Washington State College February 8, 1972 Three depts feel cutbacks Tight money = tight classrooms Photo by RICH COLLINGWOOD By KEN RITCHIEManaging Editor The reduction of state revenues has caused a reduction of funding in all areassupported by tax monies. Western is no exception. More and more students are finding it difficult totake classes in their major or minor areas as the reduced level of spending has caused cutbacks in alldepartments. Here are details of three departments facing the pinch on campus. "We turn awayhundreds from classes," Sam Porter, chairman of the techology department, said. In some cases morethan 100 people will try to get into a class that will hold no more than 20. Porter cited instances ofmajors in technology waiting until their junior year before they could take freshman level tech courses."We need a few more faculty and a little more space," he said. Latest figures show 365 persons havetech as a major and 90 have it for a minor. Currently the department has 13 full-time instructors andthree are working part time. "We can't adjust the faculty fast enough to keep up with the student'schanging needs." The department has requested three additional instructors, two full-time an;one part-time. "This would greatly help for one or two years," Porter said. "We'd go Saturdays, Sundays andnights, if we had the faculty." Near technology is the art department with much the same problem. Last year the art department was cut from 19 to 17 faculty members. It has 461 majors and 192 minors."The way it is now, it's almost impossible for a student to get started on his major in his freshman yearor for a transfer student to get into any art classes until his second or third quarter at Western,"commented David Marsh, chairman of the art department. "By the end of junior registration for winterquarter, there were no sophomore art classes available and the freshman classes were filled withsophomores." Marsh noted that more cutbacks were made in the arts and humanities areas than in thescience and math areas. "The inordinate number of scientists in the administration may be a cause ofthe budgeting decisions." There is a curriculum change proposal for the art department presently beforethe Academic Council, which Marsh hopes will parially alleviate the problem of overcrowding. "It can'tget any worse," he said. As more and more students realize the scarcity of teaching jobs they arebeginning to plan for careers in other fields. The business and economics department is also toopopular. C h a i r m a n of that department, Howard Mitchell, said last week that they might have to cutback 10 to 15 per cent on last year's enrollment. "We don't have the exact figures, but we are staffedbelow the average formula for the college," Mitchell said. Business and economics has 22 full-timefaculty members instructing 616 majors, and 371 minors. Mitchell said one of the problems is trying toprovide enough course sections for the surplus of interested students. "We seem to be a very populardepartment," Mitchell said, "but we can't respond adequately to the interest that's expressed."Enrollment in business and economics courses at Western has risen between 1 5 and 20 per centrecently, almost twice as much as the college overall. The current overpopularity in Mitchell's department started in the fall of 1970 when students interest shifted from teacher education to other areas. Another of the problems Mitchell must contend with is the difficulty recruiting the best possible teachers.Starting salaries in his department average about $1,500 below the salaries at similar institutions. AtWestern it is about $ 11,000 compared to an average of $12,500 elsewhere. "We're at a competitivedisadvantage," Mitchell said. "Our ability to improve depends upon whether or not the college can getsufficient additional funds to help out the various departments that are experiencing heavy studentenrollment." An information bulletin from the Seattle Community College Federation of Teachersmentions a gradual deterioration of quality education at SCC. "Some symptoms of this are largerclasses, overloaded labs, insufficient equipment and supplies, long waiting lists, closed classes." Thefederation went on strike in an attempt to rectify these and other problems. The Board of Trustees atSCC obtained a restraining order forcing the teachers back to classes. John Barton, president of theSCC chapter of the federation will speak at a meeting in BH 105 Thursday at 7:30 p.m. Barton, who isalso the legislative chairman of the Washington State Federation of Teachers, will discuss theintentions and consequences of the strike at SCC. Get behind the Front Today is the second day ofpress week, sponsored by the Western Front. The entire college community is invited to visit the Frontoffice, located in VU 313, to meet the staff and take advantage of complimentary coffee and doughnuts.Various displays illustrating the physical production of the Front are available for public scrutiny. Staffmembers are on hand throughout the day to answer questions and offer explanations on all aspects ofFront production. In addition, Pat Oliphant, Pulitzer Prize winning cartoonist for the Denver Post, is oncampus today, as guest journalist-in-residence, sponsored by the ' journalism program. In conjunctionwith press week, an open forum panel will be held Friday, at 1 p.m. in the VU Lounge. Several studentleaders will be available to answer questions concerning their respective positions in an attempt to openchannels between themselves and the college community. Press week will continue through Friday. ---------- Western Front - 1972 February 8 - Page 2 ---------- 2 Western Front Tuesday, February 8, 1972 ' . . . ON SECOND THOUGHTS, THE HEU WITH IT!" FrontEditorials Racers are getting waxed The ethical motivation behind the decision of the Activities Councilto suspend Western ski team funds for the remainder of this academic year (see story, page 8) for"misuse of funds" is undeniably clear, yet we cannot help but question the original intent of the allotmentgranted through the ski team's budget. It is an irrefutable fact that snow skiing, as a recreational activity, is an expensive venture in itself. When placed in a competitive light, however, the "venture" tends tobecome quite costly. The ski team's former budget stipulated that money obtained from college sourceswas allowed to pay only for mileage, gas and lodging. The budget did not include monetary coverage forlift tickets, costing $6 per ticket, nor did anyone appear to take into consideration money spent by theracers for equipment, uniforms and maintenance of both. It would seem only logical that instead offinancing the Western ski team's gas and mileage expenses, the college could have paid for, in full or inpart, lift ticket costs. We are not condoning the ski team's tactics from an ethical viewpoint. It is, however, a matter which should be considered by the Activities Council from a motive-oriented viewpoint. The skiteam members were apparently not pocketing money received, nor were they spending the extra dollarson "after hours" entertainment. Their motives, in fact, appear to be purely logical as far as economy goes.The question that now remains is next year's ski team budget, if there is to be one. Would it not be moreplausible to transfer monies from travel expense to another category labeled " l i f t ticket expense?" Thefact remains, as the article in today's Western Front points out, that Western's ski team has madeadmirable showings at races thus far this season.

"Idon't believe you," Milton Bizz said. "But it's true. A college student will never admit he doesn'tunderstand something. It just goes against the grain," Farly Bulous said. "I mean college students arelike the people in the story, "The Emperor's New Clothes." They can see some guy walking nude downthe street and think up some rational explanation for it. They would never say 'Hey, this guy is nude and I don't understand why.' No, they'll say something like 'This man is flaunting the establishment andshowing his total freedom.' "You see," Farly went on, "college students are terribly frightened of showingany signs of stupidity in front of other students, especially when they encounter something that is totallyincomprehensible. The more idiotic it is the more a student will try to think up some rational answer. Butnever will they say they don't understand." "I still don't believe you," Milton said. "Okay, then meet meout on Red Square tomorrow at noon and I'll prove it to you." The next day at noon, Milton walked out toRed Square and saw a small crowd gathered around a six-foot toe. He went over to the toe and tapped iton its side. "Is that you, Farly?" he asked. "Yeah. Now just stand back and watch," came a muffled reply. Milton stood back a little and looked the toe over. He had to congratulate Farly on his craftsmanship.The toe was made out of paper mache and painted green, and if it wasn't for a bright orange toenail, itwould look like it was plucked off the Jolly Green Giant that morning. Most students only slowed down as they passed the toe, giving it a quick once over and then hurry on their way. But one student steppedout of the small crowd around the toe and looked it over with a critical eye. "Yes, it is definitely a phallicsymbol," he said, nodding his head. "The artist is attempting to say 'Screw the world, I am what I am.'And what he is is a big toe," someone said. "Possibly," another student said. "But don't you think theartist is also trying to rid himself from his tortured environment through a manifestation?" This studenttook out his pipe and gave the toe an authoritative tap to drive home his point. As if on cue, the toe stoodup and starting running around Red Square fountain, every once in a while leaping high into the air. Noneof the students watching this showed any signs of surprise at a toe running around the fountain, but a fewdid clap. "The artist is now showing life is a continuous circle and man must always run in it with the help of his toe," someone said. Milton watched in awe as Farly continued running around the fountain. Morestudents were stopping and offering comments about what was going on; some thought the toe waspainted green to symbolize the ecology movement and others said it was green to symbolize life. No one asked why a six-foot green toe was running around Red Square fountain. Suddenly Farly hit a spot of ice on the fountain's wall and fell on his head. The crowd roared its approval. "So man's life is a circle, butunlike a circle, it must come to an end," the student with the pipe shouted. "No, no," another said, "thetoe died from its polluted environment." No one else could offer any further explanation about the toe andso the crowd broke up and the students went their separate ways. Milton ran up to Farly who was stilllying on the bricks and shook the large toe. He could hear Farly rattling around inside like a peanut in ashell. "Okay, Farly, you proved your point. No one questioned your motives," Milton told a somewhatdazed Farly as he crawled out of bottom of the toe. "Of course not. They would never think of it." Farlystood the toe upright and eyed it. "How about if I put a light on the top and made it into a lamp? Do youthink I could sell it?" "Sure," Milton said. "The school would buy it with no questions asked." Althoughthere will be no art offered, the Western Front is throwing open its doors to the public for Press Week. Allstudents are welcomed to come down to the office and oggle at the reporters, who are said to have some artistic value all their own. ---------- Western Front - 1972 February 8 - Page 3 ---------- Tuesday, February 8, 1972 Western Front 3 Letters: Susan Anastasio spins "modern day" fable Editor,Western Front: Once upon a time there was a family named Cy-Gon. Mr. Cy-Gon had two children, Proand Anti. Now Mr. Cy-Gon's method of running the family was considered oppressive by Anti, so herebelled. Pro remained acquiescent to his father. Mr. Cy-Gon had a friend. Mr. Sam Ericka, who livedthousands of miles away. Sam took a great interest in the affairs of the Cy-Gon family, and decided that Anti must be punished for rebelling against his father. So Sam sent his obedient son, Joe, to beat Antiinto submission. Joe, being unfamiliar with the Cy-Gon family, could not tell the difference between Proand Anti, so rained blows on both with undiscriminating vigor. Now Mr. Cy-Gon had a brother, Han-Noy,who was sympathetic to Anti's rebellion. Sam Ericka decided from far away that Han-Noy should bepunished for his sympathy, so he sent another son, Sam Jr., to attack Han-Noy. Sam told Sam Jr. thatthe rebellion was really Han-Noy's idea, and that Han-Noy had started all the trouble. Sam Jr. and Joefought and fought, and beat and beat against Anti and Han-Noy, to no avail. You remember that theycould not discriminate between Pro and Anti, so Mr. Cy-Gon's c h i l d r e n both suffered extremely,even though Sam had sent his sons to help Pro. Now Sam Ericka had another son, John, who had been watching and thinking about all this. Seeing that things were going badly for Mr. Cy-Gon, Sam said,"John, you get on over there and beat hell out of Han-Noy and Anti Cy-Gon." "But father," said John,"mother always told me to mind my own business.and stay out of other people's family quarrels!" "Thisis different," said Sam. "If Anti and Han-Noy win over Mr. Cy-Gon, they'll come over here and we'll haveto fight them on our own doorstep." "But why would they come over here? Anti wasn't mad at us, hewas mad at Mr. Cy-Gon, and Han-Noy wasn't mad at us either, until Sam Jr. and Joe started beating onhim. If we stop, they won't be mad." "Well, son, you may not know it, but all the trouble is really thefault of Han-Noy and Cy-Gon's close neighbor, Red Chy-Nah. He's the one who's behind the rebellion,and he wants to come over here and . attack us." " "But father, Red Chy-Nah hasn't done a thing to help Anti or Han-Noy. As a matter of fact, Cy-Gon and Pro and Anti and Han-Noy all hate Red Chy-Nah—they've been enemies for ages!" "Never mind, son, you just get on over there." "But father, howcan we help Cy-Gon and Pro if we hurt Pro just as much as Anti? And what has Anti ever done to us?"That's enough, son-get on over there!" But John refused to go. Sam threatened to put him in jail forbeing incorrigible, so John left home rather than obey his father and hurt the far-away people who haddone him no harm. Many years later, Sam suddenly decided that Red Chy-Nah would not attack himafter all. In fact, he decided to travel far and pay a friendly visit to Mr. Chy-Nah. John heard of this andrejoiced. "Now," he thought, "Joe and Sam Jr. can stop beating up Pro and Anti and Han-Noy and letthem settle their own family quarrel." But John was mistaken. Sam allowed Joe to come home, but toldSam Jr. to keep pounding Han-Noy and get in a few more licks on Anti while he was at it. "If Pro getshurt," Sam added, "it's his own fault for looking so much like Anti and being in the way." Joe waswelcomed home proudly by Sam. "You've been a good son. You've done your duty and defended yourhome." "Where's John?" asked Joe. "And how was I defending our home by punching Anti and Han-Noy thousands of miles away?" "Never mind that," said Sam. "John left, and he'd better not come back. Hewouldn't go to the Cy-Gon's and beat up Anti and Han-Noy when I told him to. He's worse than amurderer!" "But father," said Joe, "I only went because I didn't understand the situation. Didn't motheralways tell us to mind our own business and stay out of other people's family quarrels?" "This isdifferent," said Sam. "If Anti and Han-Noy win over Mr. Cy-Gon, . . ." Moral: SOME PEOPLE NEVERLEARN Susan Anastasio Bravo/ Editor, Western Front: I congratulate the Western Front onmaintaining the high standards of journalistic excellence I have come to know and expect. I can nolonger still my rapture. If my suspicions are correct, the new parking permits for Infirmary patients is the most blatant rip-off Western has tried to pull yet. And I will maintain my suspicions until I find out howmuch extra these permits will cost sick students. I hope it's me that's poorly informed. I must alsoexpress my joy at seeing the "Dr. Burke and His Seven Presidents" story in the last issue of the Front. I had had the misfortune of reading page 6 of the Nov. 25 issue of the "Rolling Stone" saying that thestory was a hoax. Perhaps the Front can clear up this little matter for me. G.W. Hunter FairhavenCollege Lauds Front Editor, Western Front: Thank you for the revealing article on prophylactics in lastTuesday's paper. Although the headline, "Condoms may come to Campus" at first confused me, I soonwas enlightened and so I no longer envisioned some menacing force ready to attack this campus. Icongratulate the Western Front for touching on these sensitive areas that are too often covered up andignored. Dan Harmon Sophomore, English Art proposed for library Two major pieces of art have beenproposed to Western's Board of Trustees by architect Fred Bassetti, designer of the Wilson Libraryadditions. The first proposal, a cluster of polyhedrons (many-sided figures) sculpted of redwood or cedar with a bronze block suspended inside, would be placed between the library and Haggard Hall. Thebronze piece would have the 26 letters of the alphabet, the ten arabic numerals and the symbols for Piand infinity carved on its 38 surfaces. The 38 surfaces would appear through eight openings in thesurrounding wooden structure. The piece, designed by Bassetti, would resemble a large cube set on one end and is to complement the Noguchi "sky viewer" sculpture in Red Square. The second piece, arepresentative statue in red or dark granite, is to be placed at the north entrance of the library. Designed by artist Richard Beyer, the figure will be approximately 5 feet by 5 feet by 5 feet and represent either a bear or cougar. The suggestion of a cougar raised some eyebrows at the Board of Trustees meeting."A Cougar?" exclaimed President Charles J. Flora. "He must have graduated from WSU." Bissetti alsoproposed a series of tapestries, paintings and enlarged photographs for the interior of the newly-remodeled library.

"I've drawn since I could h o l d a p e n c i l , " the Australian-born cartoonist said. He begancartooning while working as a copy boy on an Australian newspaper. "I was just around the paperdrawing a lot. I guess they hired me because they were cheap," he said. Almost the equivalent ofOliphant's signature is the miniature penguin, Punk, in the corner of each cartoon, which made its firstappearance in 1957. "It was born of frustration. I used this as a vehicle for sneaking my own ideasthrough because, at that paper, I was restricted in what 1 could say." In 1966, the political cartoonist ofthe Denver Times, Paul Conrad, left Denver for the Los Angeles Times. Oliphant read of Conrad'sdeparture, applied to the Post and was hired. "It was difficult to follow Conrad. My style was differentthan what people had been used to, both with Conrad and nationally," he said. Within two years Oliphant had captured a Pulitzer Prize for his cartoons. But he doesn't think much of the Pulitzer. "If you just sit around long enough, it will come. It's largely overrated and doesn't really reflect any achievement," hesaid. Oliphant feels that the main job of the cartoonist is to start discussion. He considers humor ahighly persuasive political tactic. He sees the newest women's publication, Ms., as being heavy-handed. "They'll never be effective until they learn to laugh at themselves," he commented. Cartoonistscaricature those who lend themselves most easily to it, and Oliphant's feeling is "the uglier, the better."Nixon fits his scheme "pretty well," he says. Introducing Gregory J.

ELECTRONIC REPAIR Alatnma ConwwM 733-5W By BILL DIETRICH StaffReporter College President Charles J. Flora has not made a decision on the proposal to installprophlactic vending machines at Western, but he is concerned about public reaction to such a move.Washington state colleges are in a financial bind because of legislative budget cuts, Flora said, andthese cuts were made partially because legislators aren't too happy with higher education. "They thinksomething's wrong because of activism and because college promulgates moral deterioration," Florasaid. "There is a concern that we are bastions of immorality." Installation of prophylactic vendingmachines in public places on campus would be viewed as a further indication of moral breakdown in thecollege community, Flora said. "It would enhance the view that colleges are morally reprehensible," headded. Flora said he resented this reasoning since Western is "an institution of truth and the truth must out, whatever the reverberations." He questioned whether the use of condoms will reduce the venerealdisease rate. It might increase sexual activity since installation of the prophylactic machines could beviewed as an endorsement for promiscuity. Flora also questioned the value of man's choice to regulatehis sexual behavior. "I don't think a lot of people have really thought this out," he added. Floracommented on the past and future of Western.'Looking back fifteen years, he said, "not in my wildestdreams" did he foresee the amount of change that has come to Western. Looking toward a Western ofthe future, Flora said, "I would like to see greater vigor, greater intellectual expectation, greater concernin matters of the mind. Every student should have his very best demanded so that when he walks out ofhere, he will say, 'My God, I'm proud!' " Recycling needs truck drivers Truck drivers are desperatelyneeded to carry recyclable material from dorms and administrative buildings to Huxley College,according to Barry Maddocks, who is in charge of Western's recycling program. He said the storageareas for bottles and papers have been declared a fire hazard by the security department and the firemarshall. The recyclables have to be taken out of their storage areas as soon as possible, Maddockssaid. As a result, he is working on a transportation system proposal which has to be submitted to thecollege fire marshall by Feb. 7. The proposal will tell where people can leave their recyclables and whenand where drivers can pick them up. Interested truck drivers can contact Maddocks in the AssociatedStudents office at 676-3460. Gas and other expenses will be reimbursed, Maddocks said. Charles J.Flora "But people don't feel proud when they're not challenged." Postulating a different future, Florafeared that all state colleges might be put under a state agency, bringing them to an even level ofmediocrity. "I believe the college's future will be contingent on society's expectations." 135 W.

After two years of sharpdeclines in the job market, "A five per cent increase in hiring, across the board, in all disciplines at alldegree levels is anticipated," noted a major survey of employers released late last month. The study,conducted by the College Placement Council, Inc., c o v e r e d 835 employing organizations. There will be a 30 per cent increase in job openings for persons with Ph.D.'s, who have been severely hurt by thejob decline. Openings for persons with Bachelors of Arts degrees in sciences, mathematics and othertechnical disciplines are expected to increase by 20 per cent, the council's report said. But majors inliberal arts will be worse off than last year. "Even with the increases, the number of anticipated hirings is still considerably below" the peaks of the job boom years of the late 1960's, the report cautioned.College placement officers across the country confirmed the council's report and voiced cautiousoptimism about the June job market, according to a check of 32 colleges by the New York Times. Theplacement experts said that ethnic minority graduates have the best job prospects of any group.Women, too, will find more job openings than in th'epast. 1([{stereo)) 93 24 Hour/50,000 Watts Todaygive K I S S 'em and O L D E G O L D E a listen OLDE GOLDE is an exciting entertainment dimension. ..

Photo by JIM THOMSON PEmerger, building projects ok'd by Western's Board of Trustees By DAN TOLVA Staff Reporter Themerger of the men's and women's physical education departments "was approved by Western's Board of Trustees last Thursday. College President Charles J. Flora and Provost Frederick Sargent II supportedthe merger which will take effect Fall quarter. "The merger makes eminent sense, academically andfinancially," Sargent told the four board members present. In other action, the board reviewed severalcapital improvement projects. Architect Fred Bassetti told the board that modification of Wilson librarywould be completed "soon." He dismissed the Feb. 15 completion date set by the contractors as toooptimistic. Plans for finishing the fifth floor attic and the east wing of the third floor were not included inthe original contract. Since the cost of the present addition to the library was overestimated, Bassettisaid there are some funds available for these projects now. The plans include stacks, offices andreading rooms for the third floor addition and a listening/viewing facility, e d u c a t i o n a l curriculummaterials, the archives and a staff lounge for the attic. Completion is scheduled for Fall quarter and willcost about $159,000. The Board of Trustees a p p r o v e d the project unanimously. Business manager Donald Cole told the board that budget requests for the 1973-5 biennium are behind schedule becauseguidelines haven't been sent by the state. Cole forecast a modest growth in enrollment for the nextseven years. Campus Planner Barney Goltz told the board there were no new housing projects plannedbefore 1975. Goltz said the state requires an environmental impact statement from all colleges withbuilding projects underway. This study would detail the impact of college expansion on the naturalenvironment as well as esthetic and historical surroundings. Guidelines from the state's environmentalprotection agency and Health, Education and Welfare have been received, Goltz said. The board alsoapproved the completion of a temporary baseball practice diamond to be located on south campusbetween Buchanan Towers and Carver Gym. The plans • are to build a retaining wall to serve asbackstop and to seed the area to prevent erosion, providing a playing field that will last two years.Eventually several practice fields, two tennis courts and a central structure with restrooms and storagefacilities are planned for the area. An addition to the steam heating plant was approved by the board.The 40 by 50 foot addition will house a chill water plant. Board members present were: Harold C.Philbrick, chairman; Mrs. Fred Butterworth, vice-chairman; Robert W. Winston Jr.j and Paul B. Hanson. Board Secretary Patrick C. Comfort was absent. Aid asked for student services Money was the maintopic as the AS legislature- meeting on Wednesday as it received requests for funds from thecounseling center and health services, the Housing and Employment Commission and the day carecenter at Fairhaven. In other action, the legislature received a proposal concerning Lakewood and hearda progress report on the Information Volunteer Center. Frank Nugent, former director of the counselingcenter, and two other staff members told the legislature that the center is understaffed at the same timethat it is increasing its services to the college community. For an effective setup, Nugent said, onecounselor can take care of approximately 200 people, but at Western there is one counselor for 2,000."We try to take those people who are emergency cases right away," he said. "We might have to leave aperson we have an appointment with in order to do that. This is pretty bad for students and for thecounselor." The counseling center has five staff members, but Nugent said they need at least eight. Hesaid the funds for the center were cut back last year and there are no funds for next year. A psychiatristis only on campus four hours a week now. "Of all the staffs," Nugent said, "we are the only one to havea professional staff cut." He said health services and the counseling center need a lot of help becausethey get the "temper of the crises on campus." He pointed out that the budget for health services andthe counseling center is $115,000, but that $30,000 to $40,000 more is needed. "Without this money,we are going to continue having staff difficulties," he said. Gary Duvall, legislator, suggested thepossibility of taking $1 out of the floating $2 bookstore fee and splitting it between health services andthe counseling center. The use of this $2 collected from student fees has been undecided since thebookstore bond was paid off. The legislature decided to check with President Flora about the situationwith this money. $1350 was approved for the Housing and Employment Commission for employees'wages, postage, printing and other administrative costs. A memo had been sent to AS President TodSundquist by Housing and Employment Commissioner Craig Cole concerning lack of funds because ofextensive printing which was done during Fall quarter. A representative from the day care center atFairhaven requested funds for a telephone saying that it is essential in case of emergency. Therepresentative also said the center has been disorganized without a telephone because there is acommunication breakdown between parents, children and the cirector of the center. The legislatureresponded to the request by budgeting whatever is necessary to have a phone installed. A proposalconcerning ownership of Lakewood was submitted by Barry Boniface, programs coordinator. Lakewoodis currently owned by the AS, but the proposal would turn ownership over to the college since the AScannot legally own property. The proposal would still give AS control over the facilities. It was movedthat the legislature postpone action on the proposal until the next meeting to allow time for thelegislators to read it. Dean Powers of the Information Volunteer Center told the legislature the centerwould officially open on Feb. 28 and be set up across from the Viking Union desk. The area will include a desk and bulletin boards to post information for those needing volunteers. He said the paper work forthe center will be done in VU 006. . ---------- Western Front - 1972 February 8 - Page 7 ---------- Tuesday, February 8, 1972 Western Front 7 Trash Theater It can't happen here?

N.Y. 13201 Western ski teamsuspended for admitted"misuse" of funds By BOB McLAUCHLAN Exchange Editor Western's ski teamhas been suspended until after Oct. 1, 1972 by the Activities council because of "admitted" misuse offunds. AS Business manager Rich Hass said that the ski team had padded a requisition form with theintent of getting more money to attend the Oregon State University's invitational race at Bend, Oregonthe weekend before last. He said the team had submitted on the report, a list of 15 people who weresupposed to attend the meet, but only eight had actually planned on going. Under a school formula, theteam is allowed three-fourths of a cent per-person per mile for gas and $2.50 per person a night forlodging. By this formula, the more people participating in the race, the more money can be taken out ofthe team's budget which is $ 1,700 for this year, Hass said. Only a certain amount of money cantherefore be given to the team for each race. When Hass discovered that only eight were going out of the 15 on the requisition form, he told them that they would not get any money for the race. Apparently, the whole team knew about the padding, Hass said. Last Monday, Hass took the matter before theActivities C o u n c i l which voted unanimously to stop funding the ski team. The team was also deniedthe right to represent Western in any Northwest Ski Conference event for the remainder of the 1971-2academic year. Restoration of funds will not be considered by the Activities Council until after Oct. 1.This year's funds will be reverted to the council's contingency fund. The council decided not to presscharges with the collegiate Judiciary or the Civil authorities against any individuals involved, although,charges could have been filed, Hass pointed out. "I do not think that people understand the seriousnessof this," he said. "It is a misuse of state funds and the team could be criminally prosecuted." Aspokesman for the ski team said that the suspension will be appealed to the Associated StudentsAffairs Council, which the Activities Council said the team could do. He said that the reason the teampadded the requisition form with extra names is because individually, the team was hurting for finances."We were making it easier for each member to pay for expenses," the spokesman said. "What we weredoing was drawing a little more money out of the budget which was already there for the team. Iconsidered it more as money to be spent." He pointed out that the formula only allows for gas, lodgingand "supposedly" for food. "But there is nothing in it which considers ski lift tickets which are six dollars a day," nor is there any consideration for training and practicing. It was costing each person about sixdollars extra to race for the college, he said. "Everyone on the team was complaining about the addedprice," he said. One thing which is never considered is that each member has to buy his own skis andboots which run about $300 and most of the team buys new equipment every year, he added. He agreed with Hass in that the school should not finance the team totally, but "the school did not even offer us astate car, which the team was allowed to use last year." Also'the $1,700 total team budget for this yearwas cut about half of what it was last year, he said. The spokesman pointed out that the suspensionoccurred because somebody on the team a d m i t t e d to program coordinator Barry Bonifas that theteam was trying to get money for lift tickets. This occurred after Rich Hass told them that they would not get any money for the race. What should have been done, the spokesman said, is to say that slating15 participants to go was a mistake and that only eight were planning to go. He pointed out that thistype of padding had been done by ski teams in the past and he believes that other organizations around campus have done likewise. The ski team this year has attended races at Alpental on SnoqualmiePass where it placed fourth overall, and at Crystal Mountain where the team placed third. The 15-member team was composed of a five-member women's team and a ten-member "A" and "B" men'steam. The spokesman said that regardless of whatever happens with the appeal, the team plans onracing as individuals at the remaining three conference meets if they can raise enough money.

"Academic in Retreat," by Dr. Joseph Fashing and Dr. Steven Deutsch, also saysthe college's low enrollment, small number of graduate students, emphasis on undergraduate educationand active faculty make Western an ideal liberal arts college. Fashing teaches at the University of NewMexico and Deutsch at the University of Oregon.. In "Academics in Retreat" they describe studies ofsix colleges and universities in the West Coast area, focusing on the effects of academic innovation ongovernance and decision making. The authors are especially impressed with Western's cluster orsatellite colleges, such as Fairhaven. The best features of a large university, libraries and laboratories,for example, are combined with a small college atmosphere which allows close faculty-studentinteraction. Because of this concept Fairhaven is limited to 600 students. Faculty members decide their teaching loads and divied their time between seminars and other classes. Students have only tworequired courses, one in history and one in science, during their four years at the college. Otherselections are made from offerings which include a broad range of seminars and a m p l e opportunity for independent study.

JOHNSON Staff Reporter WashingtonState proved to be the dominant team this weekend as the Cougars recorded victories over Western,Southern Oregon and Oregon College in round-robin wrestling matches at Carver Gym Friday andSaturday. In the Cougars 32-3 rout over Lanny Bryant's Viking grapplers, Western came up with onlyone individual match victory, that recorded by Tom Tripple, 142, in a 10-6 decision. Three Vikingwrestlers, Mike Donnelly, 118, Randy Tomaras, 126 and Lee Andersen all dropped close decisions totheir opponents, none losing by more than two points. Donnelly was beaten 5-3; Tomaras lost 5-4, andAndersen was dropped 7-5. All three wrestlers still remain unbeaten in conference action. The man ofthe hour for the Vikings Friday night in Western's 30-9 victory over tenth ranked Oregon College ofEducation was Mike Compton. Compton, wrestling at 190, faced OCE's Rich Edwards, the defendingNAIA national champion. Edwards was runner-up in 1970. Comoton was behind on points in the thirdperiod when he maneuvered Edwards around, flipped him on his back and waited for the referee to slaphis hand on the mat. After the signal of the pin had been given, Compton was met by the entire Vikingteam and congratulated by each one on his surprise victory over Edwards. Edwards arose from the mat in disbelief of what had happened. John Donnelly also recorded a pin against his opponent in 3:40, tokeep his unbeated sting alive. Western came within two seconds of upsetting fifth nationally rankedSouthern Oregon Saturday afternoon. Southern Oregon led 17-15 going into the final match, theheavyweight class, between Western's Jeff Michaelson and the Red Raider's Vern Dulany. At the end ofregulation time, the scoreboard had Michaelson on top 4-3. However, Dulany had two more secondsriding time than did Michaelson so Dulany was awarded an additional point. That evened the match andgave each team two points, preserving the victory for Southern Oregon. Vik swim meet canceledWestern's scheduled swim meet with Eastern Washington was canceled Friday.

Western was scheduled to play St. Martin's College in Lacey last night. _Against Central,Western won in Ellensburg~for-theHrirst time since 1967. Cold Viking hands and hot Central shootingput the Viks' win streak in jeopardy early in the contest, as Central broke to a 19-10 lead. Vik centerRudy Thomas scored the first three Western buckets, which was the only thing that kept the Viks closein the early going. The Wildcats' All-Evco forward Rich Hanson was the primary thorn in Western's side, scoring 33 points for the evening before fouling out. Nineteen of Hanson's points came in the first half.With Central ahead by nine, Gary White sparked a Vik comeback with two field goals on fine passesfrom Tom Bradley. Four free throws and a field goal preceded a White jumper from 13 feet which made a score 23-22. Hanson and Bill Eldred gave the 'Cats a five point lead when White put in four free throwsto again narrow it to one and a Mike Franza lay-in gave the Viks their first lead of the game, at 28-27.Both teams traded baskets the rest of the half, with Western's Roger Fuson having the last word, withtwo corner shots for a 36-35 Viking lead at the intermission.

JV's edge Central in overtime G e t t i n go u t s t a n d i ng performance from center Dick Bissell, Western's junior varsity basketball team pulledout another come from behind victory, this time over the Central junior varsity, 84-81, in overtime.Bissell,. a 6-6 sophomore from Bellevue's Newport High School, poured in 27 points, including twoovertime free throws which iced the win. The vietory gave the Vikings a 12-3 record for the season andwas their second decision of the year over the Wildcats, having beaten them earlier in Bellingham, 65-58. The game was tied at 80-80, with 15 seconds left and the ball belonging to Western, when the timer blew the horn because of a rule which states that the game must finish by 7 p.m. in order to give thevarsity teams a half hour to warm up. However, both varsity coaches gave the go-ahead to finish thegame. Western missed a shot and Central rebounded and put up a shot of their own. The Wildcatsmissed and Chuck Fisher grabbed the ball with one second left, but Bissell was called for a holding foul. Central center Rick Bass missed the first of a one-and-one situation and Bissell snared the carom tosend the game into an extra period. Wildcat Ray Henderson hit the first of a bonus free throw attemptand missed the second to give Central an 81-80 lead. Bissell was then fouled by Bass and put two shots through for an 82-81 lead. Bissell hit all five of his attempts from the charity lie. A lay-in by Chuck Price provided the safety cushion for the win. The Vikings were ahead only once in the first half, at 7-6,before Central worked for what eventually became 14 point lead, at 32-18. The Vikings then began whathas become a trademark this season by inching back into the game, trailing by only seven, 46-39, at the half. Western tied the game at 53-53 on a Bissell free throw and took the lead on another charity tossbv Price. The Viks worked for a seven, point lead, before Central roared back to take the lead on a JohnLambert bucket. Central led by three, 77-74, late in the game when Price and Chuck Fisher combined to give Western an 80-77 edee. A Rod Jeske free throw and a Bass jumper tied the knot at 80, setting upthe final action. Fisher followed Bissell in a balanced Vik scoring attack, accounting for 22 points, withMark Salzman and Price getting 13 and 12 respectively. Henderson paced the Wildcats with 26counters, followed by Jeske, Mark Korsmo, and Bass with 15, 12, and 10, respectively. Fouls almostdoomed the Rich Tucker-tutored Vikings, with Jim Hotvet fouling out, Bissell, Fisher, Price and JoeHunter each drawing four, and Salzman was caught for three. The jayvees have only eight teammembers. Western held a 32-25 field goal advantage over Central, but hte 'Cats made it up by shooting27 of 35 from the line, while the Viks went 20 for 28.

In the second half however, the Viks broke to a quick nine point lead andwidened it to 15, when with three minutes left, Western coach Chuck Randall cleared the bench.

So since last fall we'vebeen looking for a brand new pair of roller skates. The result? A number of changes that are still on thedrawing boards. Plus five important innovations. 1. We banished the 1950s image with a shorter, nicername. Scobp . . . it's a combination of student and cooperative bookstore. Then we added the cartooncharacter to help us lighten up. 2. We created a place in our store for selling student-made candles. Andwe're gradually expanding it to include a quantity of other student-made goods and handicrafts. 3. Wefigured out how to turn the bookstore into a recycling center. We're still sorting out the details, but we'llhave it together early next month. 4. In September we replaced the old, unwieldy rebate system with afive per cent cash discount. In December we reduced the prices of drug items 17 per cent more . . . for atotal cutback of 22 per cent. At the same time, we doubled our inventory of contemporary records. Weput opinion boxes throughout our store. If you've got a suggestion or a complaint, now you can drop us anote. What's in it for us? The obvious advantage of making our store a little better place than it was.We've summed up the whole idea in three short words: people before profit. Think about it the next timeyou go Scooping. It's the key to our brand new pair of roller skates. 2^©©*? people before profits.Copyright lt;£ 1972. Let there be fight Emergency lights will soon be installed in Carver Gym andother buildings as part of a $30,000 safety improvement fund included in the 1971-73 budget. The lightswill be battery powered and constructed so they are constantly charging when the power is on and willcome on automatically if the power goes out. But this will not solve all the problems, H. S. Litzsinger,director of the physical plant, said. It will solve the handling of crowds in the auditoriums but not theother power problems facing campus during a blackout. A very important power need is for thecondensation pumps in the physical plant. These pumps recycle water after it has condensed from thesteam that is used to heat the buildings. Without the pumps, there is no heat and the pipes will freeze.Other important power needs are for security's radios, the refrigerators in the commissary, "exit" signsand important scientific experiments. These power needs require a generating plant and separate wiring, H. A. Goltz, campus planner, said. 5 legislature posts open Five positions on the AS Legislature forSpring quarter will be up for grabs in a Feb. 29 election. Applications for these positions are availablefrom the AS secretary in the Viking Union. A 2.0 g.p.a. is required. The filing period for these positionsends Feb. 18.
