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

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

April 12,1991 NEWS The Western Front 3 Taxes Locals withhold federal
'war' money By Renee Brewerstaff reporter Bellingham resident Brian
Kerkvliet is withholding 61 percent of his taxes to the federalgovernment
this year — money he doesn't want paying for war and
the military. "I couldn't live withmyself knowing my taxes were going to
buy bombs that are killing people in El Salvador and Iraq,"
saidKerkvliet, a member of Bellingham's War Tax Redirection Campaign.
Kerkvliet, joined by others whowant to influence where their taxes go, is
manning an Alternative Revenue Service booth outside theFederal Building
until April 15. A Tax Day rally on April 15 at the Federal Building will
feature localspeakers, such as Western Professor Maury Foisy and Juan
Oriz, director of the Commission ofHispanic and Ethnic Relations. The
Alternative Revenue Service is a project of the War Resister' sLeague, a
national organization that provides alternative tax forms for people who
don't want their taxmoney going to the military. "I think people perceive
they have no control whatsoever over their taxes,"campaign member Steve
Wilson said as he explained why so few Americans question how their taxes
are spent. According to pamphlets distributed by the War Resisters
League, 61 percent of the federal government's 1990 budget was spent on
past and present military expenses. For members of thecampaign, providing
the funds for military build-up and intervention violates a
deeply-heldcommitment to oppose war. "I identify myself as a conscien-

AmericanFriends Service Committee tious objector to military service and
paying for military services," Wilsonsaid. Tom Clark, a member of
Bellingham Citizens for Peace in the Middle East, has chosen to withhold
the federal excise tax on his monthly phone bills in order to protest that
such a small percentage offederal money is allocated to human resources,
such as welfare and student grants. Both Wilson andKerkvliet said most
reasons given for tax resistance are part .of complex moral and spiritual
beliefs.Tax resistance is not a way of avoiding taxes, but a way to tell
the federal government spendingpriorities should be changed, Kervliet
said. "We're not opposed to taxation, that's essential," Wilsonsaid.
"It's just our priorities are out of line." One passerby said, "Once they
(the IRS) have it (my taxes)in hand, it's out of my control." However,
campaigning members said many options are available totaxpayers with
varying degrees of risk. The simplest way to show disapproval of
government spendingpriorities is to refuse to pay the federal phone tax.
The excise tax on all local and long-distancecharges was instituted
during the Vietnam War in order to help pay the war's rising costs, and
isstill generating S3 billion a year for military spending, Kerkvliet
said. Withholding the tax simply requiresmailing a letter of explanation
or one of the War Tax Redirection Campaign's special forms along with
the bill to tell the phone company how much is being withheld and why.
According to the campaign flier, noone has been charged with a criminal
offence because of this action. Kerkvliet said he has withheld his phone
tax for eight years without reprisal. Taxpayers can also choose to
withhold a portion of theirincome tax and include with the IRS form the
EZ Peace form distributed by the War Resister's League.The EZ Peace form
looks like a 1040 form and allows taxpayers to place portions of their
taxes underthe headings human resources; physical resources; environment,
education and culture; Interna- .tional Conflict Resolution; and Justice.
The amounts range from $1- S50. Individuals wanting to take a greater
risk can withhold the military percentage of their taxes (61%) or
withhold all of their federalincome tax. The War Tax Redirection Campaign
will also be collecting signatures forf Senate bill689. The new "peace
tax" bill would create a conscientious objector status for taxpayers, a
reviewboard to screen tax objectors in the same way a draft board screens
conscientious objectors tomilitary service, a federal peace tax fund and a
national peace college, according to the NationalCampaign for a Peace Tax
Fund brochure. Members of the War Tax Redistribution Campaign willpresent
the Peace Tax bill petitions to Al Swift's office at 1:30 pm Friday.

wondered why Bridge waited so long before making acomplaint. "It's;
interesting he (Bridge) didn't come talk to me about this," Goller said.
"Why did he waitamonth and ahalf to bring this up?" Bridge said he
didn't file his complaint sooner because shortly afterthe incident his
father was severely injured in a coma for 36 days. Rustvold, listed in
Bridge's letter as awitness to Goller's alleged remarks, said she heard
Goller talking about Jews and the Palestinian issue. "I did hear the
comment 'Jews are evil and they must be destroyed," Rustvold said. In a
regularlyscheduled AS Board meeting Tuesday night, Aaserud said he hadn't
looked into the issue enough tomake a coment. "These are very serious
charges and I will be working with Chad on this," Aaserudsaid. Fun Facts

4 The Western Front April 12,1991 Elemental Clay WCC's Orca Gallery
exhibit By Jeff Flugel staffreporter Bellingham artist Gary Sparrow's
work was displayed at Whatcom Community College's OrcaGallery in
Boulevard Park. Sparrow's work was displayed as part of the "Elemental
Clay" exhibit put onby WCC's Studio Potters' Program April 5-7. Pieces of
functional ware by Gregg Downey and SandyRowe were also displayed. "It's
kind of like psychic time travel," said Sparrow describing his
creativeprocess as he stood beside one of his sculptures. "It's pretty
much a subconscious activity. I try for apure sense of form and balance.
Sometimes I get really focused in on a place, like Egypt or Africa.Other
times it's more vague, like a fuzzy picture," Sparrow said. Sparrow's
sculpture is unusual andstriking, making good use of natural colors and
motifs. Sparrow said he draws on themes and imageswhich he believes make
up a cross-cultural pool of myths and icons. "All mythologies share
commonsymbols, use the same elements," Sparrow said. Myths and symbols
serve as his inspiration, notartistic crutches, Sparrow said. "I don't
believe in ripping off some other culture's symbology. I draw onall kinds
of common themes." Animal imagery dominates Sparrow's art. "Mainly dogs
and cats," hesaid with a laugh. "Nothing particularly exotic." Sparrow
admits he was influenced byAmericanIndianreligious artifacts garnered
during his travels inMexico, Guatemala and the AmericanSouthwest; Animals
like the jaguar and coyote had particular significance. "That's what's
great aboutart. It's a cheap way to travel. Through my sculpture, I can
go anywhere in the world," he said. Sparrow,who is coordinator of the
Studio Potters' Program, has been a potter for 18 years. He came from
anartistic background, both his parents had careers in fine and commercial
art. He said he spent some time as a production potter in San Francisco,
spinning out pots and bowls for the public, but eventuallytiredof the dull
routine and lack of creative freedom. "People become production potters
because theythink they are escaping from the rat race," he said. "But
after a while they discover it's just a differentkind of rat race." Now,
Sparrow said, he does strictly the type of art he feels like doing. "Once
itbecomes work, it loses its fun, its sense of spontaneity. A lot of
people sell out, do the stuff that getsthe most money. I prefer enjoying
what I do." Boulevard Park's Orca Gallery serves as the headquartersfor
the Studio Potters Program, with its own kiln and work area, and the
added bonus of the bay view.People can join the program through Whatcom
Community College, whether they are serious potters orjust want to get
their fingers in some wet clay. For those interested in Sparrow's work,

April 12,1991 ACCENT The Western Front 5 Three Western grads to perform in
"Peoria i t By GloriaRobinson Assistant Accent editor Western theatre
graduates Jody Hahn, Ken Boynton and Fairhavengraduate Donald Crane return
to Bellingham for the West Coast premiere of a true-to-life new comedyby
acclaimed playwright Jon Klein this May. Produced by TheatreFest '91 and
sponsored by theBellingham Municipal Arts Commission, Peoria will
openinMay attheWhatcomMuseum of History andArt. Produced and directed by
Adam Ward, the creator of TheatreFest, Peoria is the examination ofmiddle
class America, andits oftenhumorous struggle against boredom. "Everyone
(in the play) wants to be special. They are all looking for the 'unique
article.' The secret to being special is to decide that youare," Boynton
said. Boynton said this is the theme he has derived from working on the
play's production so far. Both Hahn, the other lead, and he play a
complex, bizarre, yet realistic set of characters in theplay. In one
scene, Klein has the characters speak what they are thinking, while
recorded voice-oversrepresent actual conversation. Boynton, a 1981
graduate of theatre and dance, is one of the two leadactors in the play.
His arrival back in Bellingham, a decade later, is with a great deal of
change andpersonal growth. "I was being tumbled along by the Jason
Haws/The Western Front Actress Jody Hahnand director Adam Ward look on as
actor Ken Boynton strikes a pose inbetween interviews for "Peoria."winds
of fate, I guess. I was trying to climb out of the ocean of art, only to
be ripped back in by theundertow," Boynton said. Boynton said he explored
his talents after graduating from Western as amusician in a rock band,
song writer and as on-air commercial talent. He finally found his niche
inacting through a production with the Mount Seattle Theatre Project and
two productions with Seattle'sacclaimed Empty Space Theatre. Boynton has
also appeared in two films, Lessie's Rainbow andStages. Hahn, the other
lead in Peoria, is a 1990 theatre graduate. Since her graduation, Hahn
said shehas played a role as "the little nun" in the Seattle Repertory
Theatre's production House of Blue Leaves. Reflecting on her role in
Peoria, Hahn said, "It (the play) is amazingly true... It's rare a piece
of theatrecatches this much in a show that's not that long." Hahn was
also at the Seattle Fringe-Fest in the playTrial By Jury, as well as in
the New City Director's Festival production of Stop. Hahn said she has
keptin close contact with other Western graduates through an independent
film project. Hahn said Gee, thesilent black-and-white film she is
working on, is written, directed and produced by alumni. Hahn saidshe met
Ward, theplay's director, during the first TheatreFest in 1988.
TheatreFest is perfect in thiscommunity which has a lot of college
theatre, but not a lot within the community itself, Hahn said.Crane, a
1985 self-design Fairhaven graduate, is the designer and technical
director for Peoria.. Cranesaid the self-design major in performing arts'
design and production is a real asset when he is lookingfor employment.
Crane said it proves that he is a self-motivated worker and thinker since
he wrote hisown major. Crane said he built on his expertise as an intern
at the Berkeley Repertory Theatre. He alsoworked at the Bathhouse and
Intiman Theatres in Seattle as a technician. Crane is now in his
secondyear as the designer and technical director at Skagit Valley
Community College's theatre department.For TheatreFest '91, Cranehas the
taskof transforming the old city council chambers in the WhatcomMuseum,
or what is now called the Rotunda Room, into a stage for the play. "The
script calls for skewed spacing — strange angles which
get you off balance," Crane said. He added that the set he hasplanned for
the Rotunda Room is non-traditional in the theatrical sense. "Theatre
people will be baffled,"Crane said. This may enhance the play's appeal
toward a wide, diverse audience. "Peoria is not just atown, it's a state
of mind," playwright Klein has said about the production. Tickets for the
play, whichruns fromMay 16-19 and23-26, are $5 for students and senior
citizens; S7.50 general admission; and $6for members of the Whatcom

-9 W The C R A Z V 8s ore bocK again The Crazy 8s perform in front of a
captivated crowd. By KarlW. Jensen staff reporter "Two minutes to
purgatory," spouts one of the Speedy O'Tubbs bartenders asshe passes by,
only moments before the doors open to admit the impatient Saturday night
crowd. TheCRAZY 8s are back again. Little more than a month after the
band's last appearance here, the crowd isready for that special brand of
music the 8s seem to covet for themselves. "It's hard to describe
ourmusic," guitarist Mark Wanaka said while other members of the band
struggled for a label. "It'scorrugated silk... it's natural polyester,"
the other band members finally said. "I think our music is unique because
we blend so many different styles and come up with a sound that's like,
sort of undefinable," Todd "Dookey" Duncan, lead vocalist and alto sax
player said. Their music, in fact, does seem to defyany attempt to label
it. Younever quite seem to know what will pop up next in their music. One
minuteyou'11 hear hard-core, old-fashioned jazz, the next it's reggae or
ska, and the next minute they'reblending funk, fusion, punk, or any
number of styles. If the crowd waiting in the cool, lavishly and
oddlydecorated dungeon called Speedy O'Tubbs can't figure out just what
the CRAZY 8s play, they don'tseem to mind. Everyone is there for the pure
enjoyment of the music. This is only the group's secondperformance with
the new, full lineup of eight members, which includes new tenor sax
player JayCollins and keyboard player Ron Regan. From the original nine
members, the group had dropped toseven until recently. But once again,
the band is the CRAZY 8s. The current line-up includes Duncan on lead
vocals and alto saxophone, Wanaka playing guitar, Tim "Hot" Tubb blowing
trombone and singingback-up vocals, Carl "The Truth" Smith playing
percussion, Blackness on drums, Michael Regan onbass and the two new
youngsters, Collins and Ron Regan. New or not, everyone definitely held
their own on Saturday night . Impressive solos were laid down on various
tunes by all members (Wow! Keep thenew guys.) It was quickly evident the
audience was enjoying itself. The subdued bar transformed into arolling,
jumping, sweating concert "pit." Even the guys playing pool in the back
couldn't resist themusic. "Bellingham people seem to listen to the music
as opposed to just coming to see the band,get drunk and get laid. When
they 're here for the music, that's nice," Duncan said. Old stuff, new
stuff,and a couple of interesting cover-tunes rounded out the
three-hour-plus show. The band was relentless,making everyone dance until
they could barely stand. People wandered home, complete with
squishedtoes, dozens of bruises, and big, contented smiles on their
faces. The CRAZY 8s, a nine-year-old bandout of Corvalis, Ore., are
currently touring to promote their latest album, "Doggapotamus World"
—their fifth album released from their own Red Rum
Records (anybody get the joke?) "DoggapotamusWorld" Western Front file
photo was the 8s' first studio project in more than three
years."Doggapotamus World's" slow sales take-off has been a bit of a
letdown for some band members.However, they are still expecting good
things from it, Duncan said. "It's doing all right, but it's notdoing
great. It's sort of disappointing because we think it's one of our most
exciting deals we've recorded.Itmore clearly captures our energy on
record," Wanaka said. "It was one of the most creative packageswe've
ever done," Duncan added. Oneof the main reasons hindering the band's
success, and its recordsales, is thehier archy and bureaucracy of the
record business, Duncan said. Unsigned, as of yet, to amajor record
label, the 8s handle everything themselves. "Wecan'tafford the machinery
to push recordslike the big guys," Duncan said. "It's not such a great
deal just getting signed. It's what happens after. Sometimes they just use
you as a tax write-off," Wanaka added. Hard work and perseverance seem
tobe paying off for the CRAZY 8s. "We've put out five of our own records,
paid every bill ourselves, had fivenational tours, played with 25
international acts, and we are still making a living at it," Wanaka said.
The CRAZY 8s plan to tour the Pacific Northwest for the rest of the
spring and summer, and a larger,nationwide tour next fall. The 8s will
possibly begin work on another studio project early next year.Watch for
it. "Whatever we're doing, we're going to keep doing it," Duncan said.

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

Westernwomen's tennis team notched another win after hosting Skagit
Valley Community College, on April9. The final score, 7-2, brings the
Viking's overall record to 8-2. Although it was wet and cold, theweather
didn' t hinder the teams' performance. In the singles, victories came from
freshman EliseRosenblum in theNo.3 match and freshman Brenda Swigart in
the No .4 match. Both doubles matcheswere won
instraightsets.withfreshmanMelinda Castonguay and junior Carin Clow in
the No.l match andSwigart teamed with Rosenblum in the No.2 match. Coach
Jo Ann Andrews said she feels this season's tennis team is strong and
with District Championships quickly approaching, she hopes for good
weather to work on the team's improvement. "My goal for the team is to
have them win districts and thenadvance on to nationals," Andrews said.
"I see areas for improvement in the strategy of matches playedand we (the
team) work on these changes. Any big changes will need to be worked on
this summer."I'm really excited about the tennis team," team member Karen
Richert said. "Everyone is reallysupportive of it, and it looks really
promising for us." In order to "keep everyone sharp with their game," a
challenge system has been designed. Player line-up is determined by
Andrews, based on the setsplayed by the players. If players wish to
advance and change their seating, they may challenge otherplayers in the
seats they want. If the challenged players lose, they drop one seat and
the victoriousplayers advance. "Everyone has been challenging matches
lately," Richert said. "Everyone isincredibly close and there have been
changes." With many home matches coming up this month, thetennis team is
looking for support from Western students. "I didn't expect many
spectators to be at thematch because of the weather, but as the team
continues to win, hopefully more people will show up,"Andrews said.
Kevin Bryant named director of marketing and promotions By Clayton Wright
staffreporter Kevin Bryant was named Director of Marketing and
Promotions for the Athletic DepartmentalWestern, a position which did not
exist prior to its announcement March 25. The position was created to
help supplement funding for the athletic department, which is partially
subsidized by the state.Bryant, 32, will be in charge of creating a
market plan for the department and increasing publicrelations. "Our focus
next year will be to put more money in the program and more people in
thestands," Bryant said. "We want to be the best entertainment value for
your dollar north of Seattle."Bryant said in order to achieve the goals
of the department, it will have to get people to attend gameseven if the
team is losing. Bryant said he intends to add post-game dances, showcase
prominentpersonalities, and give out promotional prizes. "We're not
trying to create a circus because ourathletics are poor," Bryant said.
"However, I feel we need a different approach to promotions outsidethe
gym. Wewantpeople to wonder what's coming up next." After graduating from
Western in 1980 with a bachelor's degree in speech communication, Bryant
returned in 1990 to earn his master's degree instudent personnel
administration. Bryant was actively involved in the local community in
the last threeyears and has established many business contacts prior to
returning to Western. With this experience,Bryant said he feels he
understands fund raising from a non-profit viewpoint. "We're real
fortunate to have Kevin to fill this position," Lynda Goodrich, Western
director of athletics, said. "He brings a readyknowledge of Bellingham
and Whatcom County, an understanding of the philosophy of athletics
atWestern, and experience in marketing and promotion. You couldn't find a
more enthusiasticambassador for our program than Kevin." Even though the
position is labeled as a part-time job,Bryant admits it will be more of a
full-time job. Bryant will also continue as assistant coach to
BradJackson for the men's basketball team, a position he has occupied for
the past four seasons. Bryant has also served as the athletic
department's alumni relations representative the past two years and
played a major role in the return of homecoming. From 1976 to 1980,Bryant
played basketball for the Vikings and remains the school's fourth
all-time leading scorer with 1,310 points. He was an all-district and
all-conference selection and participated in the first Olympic Sports
Festival in 1978.

Western Front - 1991 April 12 - Page 10

10 The Western Front OPINION April 12,1991 FRONTLINE Boycott of grapes
could help save thechildren His voice was loud and clear as he spoke to a
charged crowd of more than 500 people, gatheredin the Viking Union Lounge
to hear him on Wednesday. Cesar Chavez, president of the United
FarmWorkers of America, had a simple message: Stop buying grapes (as well
as Chateau Ste. Michelle wine)and help save our children. If an estimated
3 percent of wine buyers and 9-10 percent of grapeconsumers stop
purchasing these products, the current grape boycott will be successful.
The purpose ofthe boycott is to pressure vineyard owners to meet three
demands: 1) ban the use of the five mostharmful, cancer causing pesticides
used in grape growing (Captan, Parathion, Phosdrin, Dinoseb, andMethyl
Bromide), 2) implement a joint UFW/grower testing program to detect
poisonous residues ongrapes sold in stores and allow the results to be
made public, 3) establish free and fair elections and good faith
collective bargaining for farm workers. This is the third grape boycott
Chavez has orchestrated. The first, implemented in 1960s, was successful
because 17.5 million people boycotted grapes. Successfulboycotting of
California grapes led to a grape contract that included a ban on DDT,
Dieldrin, and Aldrin in1970. The current boycott, which began in 1988, is
entering a critical stage in which increased awareness and support is
needed more than ever. Extensive spraying of Captan and other pesticides
is killing farmworkers and causing cancer and birth defects in McFarland,
Calif., and other "cancer cluster" townsthroughout the San Joaquin Valley.
In McFarland, where the cancer rate for children age 4 to 12 is 800percent
higher than the national average, a square block exists in which one child
in every home hasfallen victim to cancer. As Chavez said, the workers who
suffer from pesticide inhalation "areparakeets for the market place." The
residue from those pesticides remains on those grapes and isingested by
thousands of Americans. The state of California is in the pocket of
agri-businesses and theEnvironmental Protection Agency has become just one
more bureaucratic wheel in the political machine.As a result grapes with
Captan residue levels of as much as 39 parts per million are legally sold
in themarket place. This is 10 times higher than acceptable pesticide
levels on European produce. The EPAhas inconsistently banned the use of
Captan on other crops but refuses to stop its use in grape and grain
production. The reasons for allowing the use of deadly pesticides is
purely economic and the result isdeath for thousands of people across
America—unless we act now. The American people blocked
theuse of DDT by banning grapes in the '60s and they have the power to do
it again. As Chavez slated, thegovernment won't stop it and legislation
won't stop it, so the market place has become "our court of lastresort."
Eight hundred thousand children under the age of 12 are working the
Califomian grapefields—fields sprayed with deadly
pesticides. "Help them and give them a chance," Chavez said. ' 'Justgive
them a chance.'' THE WESTERN FRONT Editor, Mark Hines; Managing Editor,

identification #624-820. NEA:victim of political opportunism i By
Michael Anthony Staff reporter have a cousin in Congress andalthough
we'venevermet,Ifeel I've come to know him well. He is Representative
Richard "Dick" Armey(Republican, Texas), a frequent guest on television
news programs. A man with a mission, Armey isseeking the abolition of the
National Endowment For the Arts. A stocky, media-friendly
conservative,Armey is riding the waves of a tumultuous battle over federal
subsidy of art some consider to be anti-religious, obscene, or otherwise
objectionable—an issue that enables him to score easy
points with hisconstituents, and achieve much craved national attention.
Armey's infatuation with the NEA fracasseems to be a matter of convenience
rather than conviction. He has positioned himself strategically andsafely
in the eye of a raging hurricane, within an issue mainly popular for its
obscenity and censorshipaspects. In earlier television appearances, Armey
uttered his disapproval of taxpayer dollars fundingsuch works as the
homo-erotic photographs of Robert Mapplethorpe. In recent interviews
though, Armeyhas modified his position. Transforming his view to one of
general distaste for all federal art subsidies,Armey now claims to have no
quarrel with controversial art. Publicly, at least, he has exchanged
hismoral outrage for what passes as simple, frugal budget consciousness.
He resists the label of censorunder the guise of a budget cutter. An
intelligent political strategist, Armey wears two masks. All atonce, he is
viewed by conservatives as a staunch defender of moral values, and by
moderates as aprotector of the public trough— allowing
him to accept the appreciation of happy conservative watchdogsand reject
the charges of liberal art supporters with equal grace (by claiming he is
actually trying to putan end to the bias and censorship of the NEA). To
middle America he is not perceived as a threat to civilliberties, to
moralists he is the threat they are looking for, and to the arts community
he is hard to pindown. Armey deflects criticism by referring to the NEA
itself as a "censorship organization" that makessubjective judgements
about the value of art all the time. Looking at the present system of art
subsidy, itis true. The NEA, sometimes as a result of pressure and
sometimes out of bureaucratic self-interest,does act as a censor of the
arts. It is true that, as long as we federally fund art, we are engaged
incensorship unavoidably. It is among the policymakers that a shift in
thinking needs to occur. Art should not be subsidized. It is the artist
that needs and deserves our support. The National Endowment shouldnot be
destroyed, just reorganized. What is overlooked among all the smoke and
hot air surrounding this debate is a growing misconception of the arts. A
simple view is art is merely attractive, decorative, orsimply something
that sells. But art is not only what is publicly palatable or
commercially viable. Artcanalso be disturbing; a window to another culture
(or counter-culture), or even a different See Anthony, page 11 Drugs: an
unnecessary crutch A By Jeff Flugel Staff reporter 11 right, let's get
this straight —taking drugs to stimulate relaxation
and creativity is a normal activity?It's common, maybe, but is
itsomething to be endorsed? The campus majority seems to think so. I,
for one, do not. I heartily agreewith those who feel we need to keep a
watchful eye on the U.S. government's anti-drug campaign beforeit squashes
all First Amendment freedoms beneath its iron heel, but to support drug
use as a positive,necessary means of stress relief is ridiculous, not to
mention disturbing. We all know the negative effects of drug use. I won't
argue against the positive medical and psychological benefits, for they
have beenproven. But occasional drug use totters constantly on the brink
of dependency. Using marijuana or"harder" drugs to alter consciousness or
to relax after a stressful day's work is not a natural technique.Fitness
experts have proclaimed for years that normal, moderate exercise and
biofeedback techniquesare the best and most natural means to physical and
psychological harmony. Exercise, meditation,yoga, good nutrition, adequate
sleep— in other words, a healthy
lifestyle— produce all the natural"highs" an individual
needs. Let's face it: clean living has been proven time and again to lead
to all-around superior mental, emotional and physical health and
performance. Drugs are a crutch, a more insidiousand precarious means to
an end. Yes, for ages other cultures have used drugs as integral parts of
theirtheological and philosophi-. cal lifestyles. However, they have
relied even more on physical activity, diet,and self-control to achieve
and maintain their peaceful, harmonious existence. The claim that drug
use isinherent to the creative process is spurious. For every artistic or
literary giant who relied on controlledsubstances for inspiration, there
are dozens of others who never used them and who would have beenoffended
to think that their own abilities were not enough to suitably express
their genius. Whether theyare illegal and come in little plastic bags or
legal and come in cans or bottles marked Bud or JackDaniels, the bottom
line is that drugs are not necessary. The human body is an amazing
organism.Properly treated, it can function at incredible levels of
performance. Foreign substances are just that:foreign, alien and not
needed.

lifestyle. Art is a means ofemotional and thoughtful communication. It is
awesome, intriguing, and miraculous—even when itoffends.
For those who appreciate art and the artist, a system of public support is
essential, filling a voidthat could otherwise be filled only by private
interests. But a government-as-curator system of "morallysensitive"
selection is totally unacceptable. The current NEA runs as if it is
commissioning art for anemperor, being careful not to offend, when what it
really should be doing is simply existing as a means ofsupport for
artists. What constitutes art is most properly judged individually by
those who create andappreciate it, not by government bureaucrats or the
narrow, money-guided interests of corporate boardmembers. Faced with the
option of eradicating the NEA, as Armey has suggested; or providing
publicsupport to the artist without restriction of creati ve expression,
it is the latter that seems more prudent and rational. Abolishing federal
funding of the arts would be the ultimate form of censorship:
censorshipthrough deprivation—a wide-reaching form of
censorship affecting all art, whether controversial or not.Hopefully, with
perseverance, the arts community can inform the public of the need for
federal support. atyour pace Liberation possible only through Jesus, not
pot Dear Editor. I smoked pot for three yearsbefore experiencing a
radical shift in lifestyle from "joints to Jesus," and I can agree with
Kevin Keyes'opinion in the Western Front — getting high
was indeed a "very pleasurable experience."... But after Imet the person
who changed my life forever, I soon learned there was a sharp distinction
between meresensation and truth, and between pleasure and real joy... In
his article, Keyes says that people have trieda wide variety of substances
in pursuit of a "few laughs" and says that marijuana is one of them. He
thengoes on to say, "Nothing in life is perfect, but marijuana is close."
This is true in one sense, but false inanother. There is something in life
that is perfect, but nothing in this world can produce it, for a very
simple but powerful reason: We are made in the image of God, not in the
image of nature. We also have a soul,which means we were not made for this
world — so why live as if we were? If you are seeking
happinessthrough pot, you will always be in pursuit of it, but you will
never find it. ...True liberation is complete andsustained. If it does not
liberate fully, it is not true liberation. But it is obvious that getting
stoned neveraccomplishes true liberation from boredom; if it did, the pot
smoker would be able to quit after one joint— but in
fact, he smokes it again and again... The "Frontline" commentary suggests
the legitimacy ofdrug use in religious ceremonies, but it is a mistake to
suppose (as I once did) that one can experienceGod through drugs. God is a
person, not a thing. He relates to us as a father relates to his child. We
dealwith him through trust and humility, not through a brass pipe...
—Daniel Carollo VOC homophobia issueremains unresolved
Work at our place, Dear Editor: The racial graffiti found on a calendar
in the office ofthe Veterans Outreach Center, and the subsequent
resignation of VOC coordinator Tim Osterholm, is ashocking reminder of the
level of bigotry on our campus. Certainly someone with Osterholm's
principleshas no place in anything calling itself an "outreach center,"
regardless of his other qualifications. Pleaserecall that last quarter it
was Mr. Osterholm whose homophobia and sexism drove him to request an
officeon another floor to get away from the Women's Center and the Gay and
Lesbian Alliance (Jan. 29Western Front). And he wanted out of the AS Human
Resource Program as well, so he wouldn't have tolisten to them "talk about
gay rights, feminist issues, and the like." Apologies have not followed
eitherincident. Instead, VOC employee Tom Walsh claimed "...you can't ask
people to curb the way they think. We're adults now; we already have that
Mind-set." With Osterholm taking his prejudices back into thecampus
community, has bigotry within the VOC quietly slipped back into the closet?
And have the staffmerely learned to hide their feelings in order to
protect themselves from those who might be hurt oroffended? No university
needs an outreach group reaching out with the poison of bigotry. If
Osterholm didnot write the offending graffiti that precipitated his
resignation, then the author presumably is still there,along with the
mind-set Walsh so clearly • described. As a veteran, I
find the remarks of Mr.Osterholm and Mr. Walsh—and the
tacit acceptance of their prejudice by the other VOC
staffmembers— a disgrace to the military, to the
college, and to the community. The continued operation ofthis program
should be predicated on the completion by the staff of a course in
sensitivity training and apublic apology from the VOC including a
statement reaffirming their principles of equality. -Mark W.EllisHeavy
metal rock stars: Don't like 'em? Don't listen! Dear Editors, Why are you
wasting your time rantingand raving about what heavy metal rock stars do on
stage? If you are so bothered about theirperformances, just don't attend
them. Is it okay for Mick Jagger, Prince, Elvis, and Chuck Berry to
perform in a sexually titillating manner, while it isn't okay for heavy
metal musicians? Lighten up. Let the publicdecide if they like it or not.
Next, you'll be claiming that Ozzy Osborne and Judas Priest are
responsiblefor teen suicide. I am disappointed that the Front would waste
its time on such garbage instead offocusing on more important issues such
as the merciless slaughter of Kurds and Shiites by SaddamHussein or more
relevant issues such as state funding for education.
