Cooper Vetos egislature's Judiciary Bill AS President Steve Cooper set
off a rash of controversy between \ executive and legislative levels of
student government Friday when e vetoed the legislature's judiciarybill.
The legislature claims that members of the intermediate and il-college
judiciary boards were notselected in accordance with the lies outlined in
the campus guidebook, Navigator. The bill claimed lat the boards were
illegally constituted and called for selection of ew members according to
correct procedures. Cooper charged that the legislature had not adequately
researched ossible consequences as a result ofthe bill. He said it would
probably ike six weeks before new members could be selected and seated
onhe boards. "There is concern in many persons' minds that city police may
be •sed on campus,"Cooper said. "The legislature's
action may trigger a novement in favor of such a proposal since the
college would not * ave its own judicial authority to handle student
law-breakers." "The legislature has not looked into the problem
seriously," he lid. Cooper has asked Dean of Men Ray Romine to explain
the duationto the legislature at today's session. Speaker of the
legislature Bert Halprin explained the legislature's ' '-asons for
unanimously passing the bill: "From the day I found out that they (the
judiciaries) had been•leered without any input, I
wondered how to proceed. "This seemed to be a question which ought to be
referred to the ..S judiciary. Action was delayed because it seemed more
proper that "le AS judicial,rather than the legislative arm, raise the
complaint." "I had, therefore, requested President Cooper tomake his
gt;pointments to the board last November. He assured me on at least iree
occasions that theJudicial board would be named 'next week.' ot one member
has yet been named." Cooper said that thejudicial branch was not the
proper place to send their complaint either. "If the legislature
understood theprocess of government in this stitution they would have
known that their complaint should have me to thestudent conduct
committee," he said when he vetoed the ' 11. He said that AS has two
representativeson that committee. According to Halprin, however: "Despite
a tradition of forgetting about gross errors fora few months, then
refusing to correct them, I am happy that the legislature decided to take
the initialstep toward righting the situation. (CONTINUED ON PAGE 3)

32Speaker Halprin Pushes Student Rights Document By GLEN JONES Front
Reporter Bert Halprin,speaker of the AS Legislature, wants to rejuvenate
interest in the passage of a nationally-organizedstudent bill of rights on
campus. The bill operates within the same spectrum as a bill proposed
bySenator Sam Guess to the state legislature. Yet, the bill of rights'
provisions are freedom-oriented ratherthan restrictive towards students.
Halprin's efforts are centered around the student welfare committee ofthe
AS Legislature, whose duties include approval of such measures. He is
extremely confident the newchairman of the committee, John McDonnell, will
see this bill through successfully, he said. Joint effortsto draft a
statement of student rights and freedoms by national educational
associations began in the fallof 1966. Representing faculty,
administrators and students, endorsements of this bill now
include:National Student Association, American Association of College,
National Association of StudentPersonnel Administrators, Association of
Women's Deans and Counselors, Campus Americans' forDemocratic Action, and
American Association of University Professors. The purpose of the bill,
as stated in its preamble, is "to enumerate the essential provisions for
student freedom to learn." The bulk of thejoint statement is devoted to
setting standards in the areas of student affairs and
disciplinaryproceedings. Highlights in the area of student affairs
include: —students should be free to organize andjoin
associations to promote their common interests. -affiliation with an
extramural organization shouldnot of itself disqualify a student
organization from institutional recognition. -students and
studentorganizations should be free to examine and to discuss all
questions of interest to them, and to expressopinions publicly
• and privately. -students should be allowed to invite
and to hear any person of theirown choosing. -student press should be
free of censorship and advance approval of copy. -editors andmanagers of
student publications should be protected from arbitrary suspension and
removal because ofdisapproval. In the area of disciplinary procedings, the
bill requires that an accused student be informedof the nature of the
charges against him, that he be given a fair opportunity to refute them,
that theinstitution not be arbitrary in its actions, and that there be
provision for appeal of a decision. Some of thedetails of this area are:
- e x c e p t under extreme emergency circumstances, premises occupied
bystudents and the personal possessions of students should not be
searched unless appropriateauthorization has been obtained - n o form of
harassment should be used by institutional representatives to coerce
admissions of guilt or information about conduct of other suspected
persons —pendingaction on the charges, the status of a
student should not be altered, except for reasons relating to hisphysical
or emotionaly safety and well-being, or the safety and well-being of
students, faculty, oruniversity property. The bill goes on to explicate
these and other areas of student rights and freedomsmore thoroughly.
Other provisions deal specifically with access to higher education,
classroomprocedure, student records, and freedom of off-campus students.

Tenants iff Union Pete White, chairman of the Tenants' Union (TU), called
Governor Dan Evans tenants' rightsproposal "beautiful." White said last
week, that Evans' new bill "is exactly what we've been after." The TU
originated as a student service organization in 1969 when a shortage of
off-campus housing forced about200 students to quit school. Since 1969
the TU has strived to ease the problems between tenant andlandlord. The
new bill, if passed, would give TU better ground to work on. The new
landlord-tenantproposal would impose responsibilities on both sides for
compliance with housing codes. Under the bill, a tenant would have the
option of moving out, using rent money for repairs or paying his rent to
the countyauditor until a landlord satisfies requests to perform his
duties. The bill would also make the landlordsubject, to triple damages if
he dispossessed a tenant without a valid court order. The same
penaltywould apply if he seized the tenants' property as security for rent
without the tenants' prior consent. Non-returned damage deposits have been
a major problem for TU. In the past the TU has tried to get tenantand
landlord together and to talk the problem out. When the discussions
failed, the tenant usually filed aclaim at the small claims court. In the
past, the court has generally been in favor of the tenant. In Evans'bill,
the landlord would be put more on the defensive. The bill also calls for
return of unused deposit fundswith a statement of charges within two weeks
after the tenant has moved out. Failure would make thelandlord liable for
double amount of deposit. White urges people to support the bill. He said
peopleinterested in contacting their congressmen, can get a list of the
names in the TU office. " ' White addedthat the bill will be reviewed on
Feb. 24. The chairman said anyone interested in lobbying for the bill
andneeds transportation to Olympia, can contact the TU. information on
several federal agencies. NextThursday, Xerox company will interview for
area sales representatives. On Friday, the Naval U n d e r se a Research

Tuesday, February 2, 1971 Western Front 3 Bookstore Rebate Up to
Legislature DAVE SHERMANPhoto Editor Patronage bookstore refunds moved
one step closer to adoption Jan. 20 when thebookstore board approved a
final draft of the proposal to be p r e s e n t e d to Associated
Students inthe near future. Adoption of the long-awaited proposal by AS
will make the plan a reality and the refundwill go into effect
retroactively to Dec. 1, 1970. The five-point proposal outlines
specifics for student,faculty and staff participation in t h e
co-operative bookstore refund as follows: —Patronage
refundsshall be paid, when possible, based upon purchases made during the
bookstore's fiscal year—Aug. 1through the following
July 31. Sales receipts must be turned in by July 31.
—Patronage refunds shall be paid by check in the
September following the end of the fiscal year.
—Basis of claim for patronagerefund: The eligible
members will submit cash register receipts received during the fiscal
year in themanner as shown on the Students' Co-operative Store Patronage
Refund Envelopes. —Individual refundamounts will be
calculated on a proportional basis, that is, if the members sales slips
comprise .01 percent of the total value of all sales slips submitted, he
would receive .01 per cent of the total refund, if one were paid. (For
example: total refund equals $15,000, he would receive .01 per cent or
$1.50). No check in an amount less than $1 will be PRESIDENT COOPER
Photo By BOB BURNETT 'Cooper Veto'(CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) "The
legislature did not intend to have any past decisions of the
judiciaryvoided, but merely wanted to proceed further with the improperly
selected judiciaries." In stating hisreasons for vetoing the bill to this
reporter, Cooper "I've heard rumors from people close to the
judiciaryboards that if there is interference from any government body on
campus, they have considereddisbanding and giving judicial power back to
the Deans' offices. "The legislature is negligent in thismatter. I'm
sorry the whole thing came up. "The current judiciary is functioning
well, he said. "The ASLegislature should not expel its energies on an
issue such as this when students at this college aregetting short-changed
in education and are forced to accept an imposed., sterile living
condition." Indefense of the legislature, Halprin said: "Cathy Dudik's
reported statement in the Western Front that 'Itwas up to the legislature
to make sure its appointee attended the selection meeting' would be valid
except that neither the legislature nor its appointee was ever informed of
the time and place of that meeting."DRAMA PLANS SUMMER STOCK A nine-week
summer stock theatre is tentatively being planned bythe drama department,
according to Dr. William Gregory. Gregory said the first meeting held last
weekproved there were enough etudents at Western interested in working on
summer stock to put the planinto action. "We were only expecting about a
dozen students to show up tor the meeting," Gregory said."But over 60
students showed up and around 40 signed up for the course." Students
taking summerstock as a class will receive between 11 to 15 credits. , , .
,n Each student will work six days a weekfrom 10 a.m. to lU.JU p m.,
according to a proposed course outline put out by the drama department,
and each student will have a chance to work in the various parts of play
production. The first of the six playsscheduled is "A Funny Thing Happened
on the Way to the Forum," although Gregory said it was notdefinite.
Gregory said he hoped to move the plays off-campus and make the summer
stock a communityeffort. Any students wanting to sign up for summer stock
are asked to call Gregory at 3890. issued, anda $2 membership refund fee
will be deducted from faculty and staff refunds.
—Procedure for determining whether a refund can be
paid: a. The bookstore board will be responsible for providing a
projectedincome statement in September and a quarterly report concerning
performance. b. Necessary uses forestimated net profits will be
determined. c. The a m o u n t of uncommittee estimated earnings will
beused to declare whether a refund appears possible. The audited
statement for July 31 will be the basis of actual determination. Final
approval of the policy is still subject to one minor technicality before
it canbe presented to the AS. The policy was adopted by the board and
went into the minutes of the Jan. 20meeting as accepted. The board must
now approve the minutes of that meeting at their next meeting, tobe held
next week. Meanwhile Board Chairman Dr. Howard Mitchell is looking into
including theproposal in the agenda of the next available meeting of the
Associated Students. Little or no oppositionis expected from AS,
Mitchell said, but he feels that he and the other five members of the
board shouldbe fully prepared to answer questions and discuss the issue
with the legislators. Approval by the AS willbe the final hurdle in the
long journey of the rebate proposal from inception to acceptance.
Flora,Trustees Okay Sudden Valley Action BOB BURNETT Front Reporter The
Board of Trustees and thecollege administration have, for the first time,
taken a . stand on the controversy surrounding airport andmarina
development at Sudden Valley. AS President Steve Cooper, in an
announcement made Friday,said, "Western Washington State College and the
Board of Trustees have jointly asked the state attorney general's office
to investigate the situation." The results of this investigation will
fugure in the decision tofile a complaint against the Sanwick
Corporation, developers of Sudden Valley. Cooper has beenhesitant to talk
about action against the developers since the AS Legislature passed a
bill supportinglegal action and initiated a defense fund for Western's
Lakewood recreational area near the SuddenValley development. Cooper said
he had been advised not to release any information. "I'm not trying
tohide anything," he said. "I'm just protecting the best interests of the
student body until this thing isresolved." Cooper would not say whether or
not a decision had been made to sue Sudden Valley or if alawyer had been
hired to represent Western. Cooper's announcement marked the first time
official actionby the college or the trustees was made public. Student
leaders have complained since last summerthat the airport and marina
development being done by the Sanwick company are detrimental to the
value of property near Sudden Valley. They say the development "probably"
violates federal and stateenvironmental laws and that the airport would
create a nuisance. The Sudden Valley development onLake Whatcom is
located immediately south of Western's Lakewood property. The airstrip
runs to within five feet of Western's property. Student environmentalist
Ted Boss claims that the dredging and fillingdone by Sudden Valley is
gradually filling the lake with silt and decreasing the water depth at
Lakewoodboating facilities. "I'm not trying to hide anything," he said.

tosupport any legal action that may result over the complaints. The
Off-Campus Interhouse Community willbegin selling buttons this week with
proceeds going to the Western Lakewood Defense Fund.Spokesmen for Sudden
Valley deny having done anything illegal or detrimental to surrounding
property.They say the • development can only increase
property values in tne area ana contend that theirlandscaping will
beautify the area. Student leaders are certain that Sudden Valley will
not give up without a fight. The Sanwick Corporation has millions of
dollars at stake in Sudden Valley. College PresidentCharles Flora said
that it may be years before the situation is entirely resolved. Solons
Use Knife onCooper's Budget Pie REBECCA FIRTH Front Reporter The AS
Legislators have approved the 1971budget, but the final version of the
measure differs radically from that proposed by AS President SteveCooper.
While the budget that finally emerged from the stormy, two and one-half
hour session last weekdoes not differ in its total expenditure from that
proposed by the president, its internal structure was aproduct of the
legislative process and not that of the executive branch. The legislature
did not proportionmoney for a non-academic coordinator or for the printing
of a new sex-education booklet. They did vote to allot $200 to executive
supplies, $820 to the executive contingency fund, and $800 to the
politicalinvolvement committee. Cooper said that what the legislature did
was completely unbelievable. "They (the legislature) are simply not aware
of what we are doing. Although tonight was a major defeat and
atremendously gross mistake on the part of the legislature, it does not
paralyze the new programs. "Whatit does do is reveal student government
legislators as being completely inept and completelyobstructionist in
philosophy. They do not understand what we are doing." Bert Halprin,
speaker of thelegislature, said that this was the first step towards a
cut-back in the budget. "It wasn't an internallyconsistent step. I'm
extermely puzzled as to why one position was funded (academic) and
anotherwasn't (non-academic)." Cooper's reaction was that "The
Legislature's attitude and outlook is completelytraditional. It
represents the attitude and outlook that student government has had for
the past five years.They (the legislators) are still caught up in
confrontation politics, irresponsible and once-a-weeklegislation." W-13
entered the Legislature from the physical management committee with
unanimousabstention as a recommendation and several changes already made.
Rich Hass, AS business managerand legislator, was satisfied at the
over-all outcome of the meeting. He felt that the budget changes were
needed. "People that are now working for Steve are good people and
deserve money, but we must put a stop to the salaries budgeting. We added
more money to the executive contingency fund and if Stevewants to pay
salaries from that then he can. It's up to him now. What we have done
shouldn't reallychange anything." Legislator Mary Watts asked to be given
a leave of absence from the Legislature forthe rest of the quarter. She
stated time, money, and grades as her reasons.

"To comfort the afflictedand to afflict the comforted" No to USIU
Recruiters from the United States International University (USIU) will be
holding interviews on campus a week from tomorrow with students interested
in USIU's graduateprograms. The college community should boycott their
interviews and confront them with questionsconcerning the university's
apparent clandestine operations. USIU is not a typical university.
TheCalifornia-based private school is controlled by former military
officers, high ranking members of the NavyLeague, bankers, industrialists
and agribusinessmen who have used their influence to acquire a numberof
deactivated military bases for free to build new
campuses—the latest at Sundance, Wyoming.
Theuniversity has acquired these old military bases under a federal law
which says that private educationalinstitutions may receive surplus
federal land as a "public benefit allowance." USIU is currently under
firein Oregon concerning its acquisition of Adair Air Force Station near
Corvallis. The Oregon Council of thePoor is protesting the land transfer
on the grounds that poor persons could make better use of theproperty.
The Council staged weekly protests at the air station during the fall
term. Members of theCouncil contend that housing located at the station
would "make fine homes for poor people." They argue that if Adair is
transferred to USIU, then it Yes to Rotary The Rotary Club in downtown
Bellinghamseems to be making a sincere effort to bridge the so-called
"town-gown gap" which exists between theBellingham community and the
college. The fact that local Rotarians are recognizing the existence
ofthe problem and are expressing a desire to do something about it is
indeed encouraging news. Dr.Michael Mischaikow, a Rotarian and professor
of business and. economics at Western, told yesterday'snoon luncheon
gathering of the local business leaders that the college cannot exist
without thecommunity's logistical support and that the would become a
campus for the rich where tuition will bemore than $3000 a year. The
Adair property transfer has been held up by Sen. Mark Hatfield
(R-Ore.)pending investigation by his office. USIU was to have received
some 200-plus acres of Adair propertygratis, while paying market price
for an additional 177 acres and the housing units. An angry group
ofstudents at the University of Oregon investigated USIU from several
angles and discovered that USIU'senrollment figures were very low, its
access to old military bases high, and its financial status suspectand
largely secret. USIU maintains campuses in Mexico, England, Nigeria,
Kenya and several locationsin the continental United States. Both
students and faculty must sign a "pledge of allegiance" to USIUand
students are ruled under an oppressively puritanical code which
conveniently provides for dismissals on almost any ground. USIU
recruiters slipped away from a University of Oregon confrontation grouptwo
weeks ago when they visited the Eugene campus. Let's not let them get
away from Western without a public meeting to set their record straight.
It would be nice to know whether USIU is in education orreal estate.
—John Stolpe community would fare much worse without
the presence of the state college campus. The question remains whether or
not students and faculty are willing to extend a hand inbridging this gap
which certainly runs deeper today than it has during any other period of
college history. AS President Steve Cooper's town-gown committee is
certainly a step in the right direction. But it is upto each one of us to
bring the two communities closer together. And the name of the game
isinterpersonal relationships where we can look eyeball-to-eyeball and
talk over our differences —JohnStolpe EDITOR

EDITORIAL PHONE: 676-3161ADVERTISING PHONE: 676-3160 An interview with a
very impressive woman—newly elected CountyProsecutor
Jane Mason Q. Could you explain what the "tolerance policy" was and why
you stopped it.A. Well, specifically, the gambling tolerance policy
tolerated the violation of state law without any legalaction being taken.
That's what a tolerance policy is—tolerating illegal
conduct.. I chose to campaign on that issue as a sub-issue of respect for
law and the law and order issue. I campaigned on respect for thelaw.
Ending the gambling was a very controversial issue, and I feel the stand I
took on it was the onlyhonest stand. Because of the tremendous part that
gambling and everything connected with it plays inour society, it was a
very important issue. It was too big to forget about because it has
implication everytime you turn around. There have been two bills
introduced to change the laws on gambling. If ever therewas a time for the
legislature to act, now is the time. My impression of people and the mores
andstandards now leads me to believe the gambling laws are way outdated
and the legislature will act inanswer to their constituents. Q. Do you
think that students and hippies get a fair shake from the systemof
criminal justice in this county? A. Well, I would certainly hope so. If
there is the opinion among somethat any law enforcement officers in this
county can pick on so called hippie appearing people, if that isthe case
or if there is that opinion held by some, then I'm not aware of it. Q.
Some people hold theopposite view, that being people as students and live
on Western's campus they are allowed to get awaywith all sorts of things
like use of drugs and minors using alcohol. There are occasional rumors
that somesort of crackdown is planned. Is this true? A. Not to my
knowledge. I do not feel that the campus shouldbe treated in general, with
regard to law enforcement, any differently than any other portion of the
city. It's part of the city, and the county. The law applies to all, not
just to some and it applies to the campus too. Q. How do you feel
personally about laws which attempt to enforce
morality—like drug laws, and lawsagainst rock festivals?
A. Law is a product of civilized society and it is the structure with
which wemaintain order in a society. I feel that the law is a product of
what people want to be governed by. Now ifthe thinking of a majority of
people changes over a given period of time then they should
exercise,through the legislative branch, the authority to have the law
changed. The problem—the
crunch—comes when you've got the lag, which is quite
often the case. You've got the time lag—a majority of
peoplewant the law changed, but the law doesn't get changed and the crunch
is put on law enforcement officials. What do they do in the meantime? This
is a constant problem. The only honest answer law enforcement can give is
that until the law is changed, they must uphold the law on the books. Q.
In your personalopinion, should possession of marijuana for personal use
be a criminal offense? ^ A. I don't know as Ishould attempt to comment on
that and I'll attempt to explain why. I'm in a law enforcement
role—thechief law enforcement official of this county.
It's my job to uphold the laws of this state, this county.Whatever my
personal predilections may be, I can't allow them to get in the way of
doing my official duty. Q. You are apparently the only female prosecutor
ever in the state. Do you feel in agreement with thewoman's liberation
movement? A. I don't like to pigeonhole people and I won't pigeonhole
myself. I mayappear to be a women's liberation
type—whatever that means. I certainly didn't campaign
on that. Icampaigned on issues, not personality or sex, and it didn't seem
to affect the votes. But I do feel—well,there's quite a
bit of discrimination in life, period. Male, female or otherwise. But I do
feel at times there'squite a bit of discrimination based on sex in certain
areas. Q. The job of prosecutor, while a professionalone, is also in
politics. The campaign you waged showed that you understand this side of
it well. Do yousee any future for yourself in politics? A. Well, I'm
extremely busy at the moment. This is a verydemanding office. The
responsibilities placed on elected officials are multiplying and you
simply do thebest you can. I think it's too soon to consider what my
future will be. I've never been one to worry aboutthe future, or the past.
They take care of themselves. But I certainly intend to remain active to a
certainextent in Democratic politics. I am a Democrat. Q. Let me finally
ask you. Do you feel there's a"prosecuting" mentality? Do you bring people
to court whether they should be convicted or not? A. Well,I certainly
don't feel the position has "the villain" painted all over it. There've
been good prosecutors andthere've been bad prosecutors just like there
have been good and bad in every role. I think the most onecan ask of a
prosecutor is that he be fair and represent the state vigorously for
violations of the laws. Butbe fair while he goes about it. And we simply
have to trust in human nature and the elective process which governs the
selection of prosecuting attorneys. Q. I appreciate the time you've given
me. Thank you verymuch. A. It was my pleasure.

Tuesday, February 2, 1971 Western Front 5 Mitchell on Bookstore Editor's
note: Dr. Howard Mitchell ischairman of the Economics Department and also
serves as chairman of the college bookstore board. By Dr. HOWARD MITCHELL
I have been requested to offer a commentary on the participation refund
policycurrently being developed by the bookstore board. First, let me
make several comments that are relevant to the refund policy and bookstore
operations. The bookstore was established as a means of
providingtextbooks and other books, class and other study supplies,
general merchandise items needed by thestudent, and any special services
for the students at the least cost possible. Policy determination
andadministrative review are vested in the bookstore board with actual
administration provided by a bookstore manager. Policy is subject to
limited review by the AS Legislature. Given the purposes outlined above,
it is presumed that any net earnings of the bookstore not needed to
accomplish these purposes would beavailable for return to the students,
based upon the level of purchases they made during the operatingperiod.
The bookstore board currently operates under a mandate that, rather than
use unneeded netearnings for a participation refund, they be used to
provide a bookstore building. Funds to finance thepresent main building
are being provided by a $2 per quarter student fee. A contingency
provision requires that if fees are inadequate to meet the contract
payment schedule, this deficiency must be made upfrom net income. Until
recently, net earnings were barely adequate to finance the rapid expansion
ininventory and facilities necessary to serve the growing student body.
Included in this is the south campus area annex built last summer. Net
income is affected by pricing policies. The bookstore pricing
policyutilizes the standard retail markup used generally throughout the
country for textbooks—20 per cent ofretail price. On
other items, it uses selected retail markups established to facilitate
inventory controlaccounting. Nearly all result in a price below suggested
retail prices for the items. Other elements affectnet income also. The
free check cashing service and the post office sub-station result in a
loss, butprovide benefits which more than make up for the loss in terms of
convenience to the students who usethese services. You may wonder why a
participation refund is being considered now, and was notpreviously.
Speaking as a board member, there are several factors that have affected
the net earningsand potential unneeded net earnings for the current year:
(1) student enrollment will not increase bymuch in 1971-72, so the
inventory will not have to be expanded greatly; (b) fewer new programs
havebeen developed in the past two years, and thus there has been less
pressure for expanded inventory; (c)the bookstore management has been
able to meet the increased volume of sales without increasing thefixed
costs of building and fixtures or greatly increasing the clerical and
administrative staff; and (d) thecosts of building the Annex and putting
it into operation were met from available financial resources.Earnings
forecasts and anticipated financial accumulation to meet future building
needs suggest thatthere will be sufficient unneeded earnings to allow a
participation refund. Further, the $2 building fee willbe adequate to
retire the remaining portion of obligations outstanding on the main
bookstore building.Some have asked if paying the participation refund will
result in price increases. I would not approve arefund if this were to be
the result, and do not believe the other board members would. Several
studentswho attended board meetings last spring and fall have pointed out
that at that time I opposed a dividend.Why did I change my position? It
is my belief that the board must operate in a conservative manner. Bythis
I mean it should carry out its responsibilities in such a manner as to
conserve the investment thestudents have built up in the bookstore and
thus allow it to continue to meet the purposes for which itwas
established. Not until the audited financial report for 1969-70 was
completed, the annex finished, the projected income statement developed,
was there sufficient information available to anticipate that arefund
could be paid. I did not wish to propose a policy under conditions which
would not allow one to bepaid. It is interesting that at this time many
college bookstores are reporting that they are discontinuingdividends,
some are suffering operating losses. The bookstore board will take its
proposals for theparticipation refund to the AS Legislature as soon as we
are sure we have all the information prepared tosupport this proposal.
Evaluation Forms Accepted Appointments for evaluation and applications
are now being accepted in 109 Old Main for June and August candidates for
BA degree and provisionalcertificate candidates. Approval forms for
majors and minors, included in each student's blue book,pages 9 and 10,
must be signed by the a u t h o r i z e d department's representative
prior to filing the de g r e e a n d / o r teaching certificate
application in the registrar's office. June graduates are urged torequest
evaluation and file their application prior to spring quarter advance
registration. Educationcandidates for August who plan to student teach
spring quarter are advised to make their request by theend of this
quarter. housing notes Many tenants wonder what their rights are
regarding the landlord'sprivilege to enter the unit they are renting.
Basically, the landlord has very little right to enter your rental,unless
you give him permission or have signed this right away in some type of
agreement. Tenantsshould keep in mind that they are paying for a
home—a place that belongs to them as long as theymake
their rent payments. In many cases a landlord, or anyone else who enters
without p e r m i s s i on , is guilty of trespassing. Contact: Gary

I I I I I IClass Schedules to be Checked The registrar's office will
start sending an experimental registration-proof print-out tomorrow,
Registrar William J. O'Neil said Friday. The purpose of the print-out is
tocorrelate the registrar's records with the student's actual class
schedule, O'Neil said. "There were somany changes in registration this
quarter that we want to make sure the records are correct." The
print-outs will be mailed in three separate batches with the first third
going out tomorrow, he said. The othersheets will be mailed Friday and
Monday. O'Neil said that if the print-out is correct, the student has
todo nothing. If there is an apparent mistake, however, the student
should report it to the registrar's officefor action. O ' N e i l s t r e
s s e d the importance of keeping students' present local addresses up
todate. "We will send the print-out a n d p r e - r e g i s t r a t i o n
appointments to the address we haveon file," he said. If a student has
changed addresses since the beginning of the quarter, he should report
his new address to the registrar's office. T h e e f f e c t of the
experimental proof-sheet will not beknown until after grades have been
mailed out at the end of the quarter, he said. "We get the bulk of our
complaints after grades are mailed out." JOIN the Pollution Revolution

Studentanswers Charges Editor: As a student in the "highly immoral"
program at Whatcom, I read CathyPark's letter with interest, then I got
mad. But instead of writing from my point of view I thought I'd askmy
class what they thought. So I read the letter to them and suggested they,
too, write a letter to theeditor on what they thought of her letter and
the , program. I tried to not influence them with my point ofview. I
enclosed some of the letters as I feel they answer her better than I
could. The students are in asixth grade class. They earn money for good
behavior and work. They are not rewarded for every goodbehavior or correct
problem. They can save their money to buy certain things, for instance
eating candyor sharpening their pencil whenever they want to. They can
also save for trips such as a skating party.The rewards are chosen by the
students not by the teachers. There is no pressure put on them to saveor
spend their money. I'm for the token system as another method of
motivating children, not as the one answer. Marcia Harper Junior
Whatcom Middle School Editor's note: Five letters from WhatcomMiddle
School were submitted with Miss Harper's letter. We chose the following
two to present the other side of the story: Of her side of story
Editor: I think the girl that wrote the letter about the token money'
system does not know the other side of the story. When kids work hard
they should get something out of it.' When we are good we all pay the
same amount of money to go on a field trip. Some kids havebeen trying
harder ever since the money system has come out. The girl who wrote to
you did not writeanything good, she just wrote bad things. Whatcom
Middle School Student Editor: I'm replying to theletter that was sent
out about the student teachers using play money, or the token system at
Whatcom Middle School. I am a student included in this program and I am
answering the letter that said that thissystem was not right because it
causes greed. This I don't believe is true. Everyone needs to berewarded
for something. We get money very few times for work, and mostly we get it
for how we act. Ifwe are very bad we don't get anything, but if we are
very good we get rewarded. This helps in teachingand in our behavior. In
my opinion is hasn't made us greedy, it's made us happy. Kristen
MyhreWhatcom Middle School P.S. It may not be good all the time, but on
the average I think it helps us. 24Hour Visiting : Privacy Invasion?
Editor: Twenty-four hour visitation will "be voted on by dorm
residentssoon. And, of course, a word to the wise: think about both sides
of the issue before committing yourvote. I am speaking for what may turn
out to be a minority who oppose 24-hour visitation. Why opposesuch a
policy? Because it threatens the right of privacy of every person who
lives in a dorm on thiscampus. The right of privacy is a sacred right
common to every citizen and must be protected. Oursociety has laws which
protect that right. For example, " p e e p i n g tommery" is a
misdemeanor."SPRING-BREAK IN HAWAII".- March 21-28 $279. per person

ASSOCIATION 60A, Pyle St., Newport,I.W., Hampshire, England. Also on the
books are laws governing the taking of pictures of people in their
private dwellings without permission. Secondly, a blanket policy as t h
i s does not take intoconsideration differing types of a r c h i t e c t u
r e in dorm construction. The point is that most dormson campus are not
self-contained apartment units. In the case of Mathes, Nash, Edens, lower
Highland,and most of the Ridgeway complex, every room on any floor shares
one bathroom. This makes itespecially awkward in the early morning or
late evening hours when people are getting up or preparing for bed. Thus
the policy introduces two peculiar problems not found in most normal
living situations:Inadequate privacy for the o c c u p a n t s , and added
inconvenience for guests of the opposite sex, allof whom must use one
bathroom, usually located on the main floor. Thirdly, of course, is the
p r o b l em of i n d i v i d u al responsibility. The policy states that
"students must be held responsible for theiractions, for they are
expected to act as a d u l t s , " and stresses this commendably. But
these are but words with little muscle behind them. Most dorm policies
governing visitation, pets, drugs, and liquorare either loosely enforced
or not enforced at all, and violations are thus frequent. Some resident
aidesturn t h e i r backs on their responsibilities. For example, in
Higginson Hall, the staff has m a i n t a i n e d , by its own admission,
a hands-off policy on dorm conduct. Even the willful vandalism of
vendingmachines in the hall within the past two or three months has not
changed this. In too many cases, many students are too busy rebelling
against any type of rule, whether beneficial to their interests or not,
tobother with "individual responsibility." If our goal is to create a
more "realistic" living environment withinthe dorm structure, 24-hour
visitation defeats that purpose by threatening a basic individual liberty
ofprivacy, and c r e a t i n g a d d i t i o n al i n c o n v e n i e n c
e for dorm residents and guests. Inaddition, it is absurd to grant
additional liberties when responsibility and adequate e n f o r c e m e n
tare not forthcoming. Cast your vote, but only after weighing both sides
of the issues. What you decidewill affect the lives of every dorm student
on this campus for better or worse. Jim Bromley SpeechSenior r k. ^
On a Saturday afternoon in 1958 tour hungry University of Washington
students werebemoaning the fact that it was impossible to get a good pizza
in the 'district' One of the four (thehungriest one) concluded, "The only
way we're going to get a good pizza is to make it ourselves." It wasalso
concluded that they had no money, they knew nothing about restaurant
business, and that theymust be out of their minds. Three months later Pizza
Haven opened. In the meantime they begged andborrowed about $3,000, read
all they could about restaurant management, made and ate approximately173
pizzas until they came up with a combination they would be proud to sell
to their classmates. Soonpromising careers in psych, history, math and
pre-law were interrupted by the less intellectual pursuits oftable
waiting, dough-cutting and sausage slicing. Somehow they survived that
first year and havemanaged to do enough things right that they have grown
from the U. District to the campuses of 15 othercolleges and Universities
in Washington. No longer can you sit on the hard, wooden picnic benches
orfeel the oven blast in the small store on the 'Ave,' but you still can
get the best pizza at the best priceclose to campus. In recognition of the
fact that Pizza Haven was started by college students for collegestudents
and has based its success on this formula, Pizza Haven wishes to thank
their old and newfriends on campus by having a 1958 Menu special on

AS constitution, originally to be written by the r e s p o n si b l e l e
a d e r s h ip committee, has been passed onto a newly formed
subcommittee. AS legislatorAnn De Leon said, "it was time for a total r
e s t r u c t u r i n g " of the old constitution, which"contained too
many loopholes and was incomplete and vague in many places." Miss De
Leon said thenew constitution would specifically call for better
representation in s t u d e n t g o v e r n m e n t. R e pr e s e n t a t
i v e s from publications, program committee and interhall committee will
serve. The newconstitution stems from a campaign promise made by AS
President Steve Cooper last fall quarter.Cooper said he would have the AS
legislative and executive branch work together to write a
newconstitution. The new constitution will eliminate problems like last
quarter's invalid elections, Miss DeLeon said. The AS is planning to hire
an expert in constitutional law to serve as an advisor and help with the
actual rewriting. Anyone who is interested in helping with the rewriting
is welcomed. SPRINGQUARTER Advisement and Advance-Registration

Eastern still leads with a 6-1 record. Western and Whitworth aretied for
second at 5-2, while Central, who lost to the Savages 61-59 last Friday,
is fourth with a 4-2league ledger. It was a free throw by guard Mike
Preston with 16 seconds left that provided the victorymargin. The charity
shot gave Western a 76-73 lead and a field goal by Dave Hayden with three
seconds remaining brought the final score to 76-75. Western never
trailed in the first half, though tied at theintermission. The Vikings
continued to ,h;old a slim lead throughout the second half until two
field goalsby Hayden and one by forward Randy Buss gave Eastern a 65-64
lead with three minutes to go. Savageguard Darryl Harris netted two free
throws moments later to stretch the margin to 67-64, the largest heldby
the Savages. Then Viking center Rudy Thomas, who played brilliantly
throughout the game and was outstanding in the final minutes, scored two
baskets, the second a crucial tip-in that put Western infront 68-67 at
the 2:37 mark. Again Harris, with a jump shot from the top of the key,
got the lead back for the Savages 69-68, but Thomas,unstoppable,
converted a three-point play to put Western on top 71-69. Forward Steve
Barnett tied it 71-71. A jump shot by Viking captain Neal Larson made it
73-71 with 1:38remaining. Buss, on a twisting layup, knotted it again
73-73, but Western, not to be denied, took thelead for good on another
pressure-packed jump shot by Larson with 51 seconds left. * Eastern
failed toscore the next time down the court, though getting numerous
shots in a near free-for-all that put thecapacity crowd in roaring
hysteria. The Vikings finally got control on a rebound by Thomas and
wentinto a stall. Preston was intentionally fouled by Buss. Though he
missed the first shot, he converted thesecond to assure the victory. It
was this same stalling tactic that proved disastrous to the Big Blue
inthe first half. The Vikings saw their largest lead of western front
SPORTS Grapplers Struggle to 7th InSan Francisco Tourney Western's
wrestling squad pulled a seventh place finish out of the sixth annualSan

maximum." "We lost some realclose ones," he added. The team flew to San
Francisco Friday, wrestled Ruggers Crush U of Oregon 9-0 Smiling Willy
McCann may be walking around campus with a limp this week but he deserves
therespect an injured athlete usually gets. McCann scored two great t r
i ' s worth six points as Western'sRugby Club tromped the ruggers from
the University of Oregon 9-0 here at Western last Thursday. In his first
big score of the game, McCann simply out-ran everyone on the field as he
scrambled 50 yards forthree points. His second score, though not as long,
was more exciting as he mowed over two ruggerswho thought they could stop
Smiling Willy's 35-yard journey to the goal line. A penalty kick
byWestern's infamous Harry Dumptruck brought the score to a final 9-0.
Western's second team beatOregon's second team 3-0. Ray Latta scored the
only tri of that game on a twenty-five yard jauntcarrying two opposing

NIGHTLY 5-10 pm 27-20" diminish to 27-23 and decided toslow things down.
Costly turnovers allowed the Savages to come back and tie the score at
the half on abasket by Buss. Western was near perfect at the free throw
line, hitting 20 of 23 charity tosses, an 87per cent accuracy. In fact
the Vikings hit their first 12 free throws before Lee Roy Shults missed
thesecond shot of a one-and-one situation with 8:56 left in the game. A
big factor in the win was the 39-26rebounding advantage held by Western.
Thomas led with 15 and Shults had 11. Balanced scoring wasanother
contributing factor as Thomas bucketed 20 points, Larson and Gary White
each had 15 andShults 14. Larson hit 6 of 7 field goals and Thomas 9 of
16 as the Vikings hit 53 per cent from the fieldto Eastern's 49 per cent.
White made nine straight foul shots to extend his string to 18 before
missinghis final attempt of the game. The 6-5 junior, making the tough
adjustment from forward to guard, turnedin a fine performance in his
first game at that position. With White at guard coach Chuck Randall
wasable to start forward John Reed. Thus the Vikings had a combined
starting five weight of 1,055 pounds to effectively offset Eastern's
1,017 net weight. The 6-7 Hayden led all scorers with 26 points, but
washeld to only 6 rebounds. Buss had 14 points, while Harris and guard
George Gamble each had 12. TheEastern press, employed throughout the
second half, made for 21 turnovers by the Vikings, compared to 17 for the
Savages. Neal Larson fires away from the outside in early season action.
