In the same motion the board resolvedto establish a Communications Council through which the three college publications, the Western Front, Klipsun and Jeopardy, would be funded and to which they would be responsible. The council would takeaffect Spring quarter. Under present policy the publications have been directly responsible to the Boardof Trustees through President Flora and the student publications council. However, during the pastseveral months a question has been raised about w h e r e the P u b l i c a t i o ns Council shouldreport. The College Services Council sent four separate proposals on the matter to the All-CollegeSenate Thursday. The four suggestions included reporting to the All-College Senate in two proposals,both the AS Board and College Services Council, or becoming departmentally related. According to theAS Board's motion, the Communications Council would develop a statement of policy and procedureaccording to a set of guidelines attached to the motion, and the editors of the three publications wouldbe held responsible for carrying out the policy. The AS Board would be responsible for publication policyand allocation of funds but not daily editorial decisions. The Communications Council could appeal to the All-College Senate any decisions of the AS Board which it felt were a threat to the publications. Theboard's position is that it cannot legally or morally "support a group which does not choose to be affiliated with" the Associated Students. Attending the meeting were more visitors than the board has had thisquarter. Rodger Painter, managing editor of the Western Front, said the Board of Trustees has delegated responsibility to the Publications Council, and this responsibility cannot automatically be switched toanother council. He said the AS Board would either be publishing separate publications or none at all.Rebecca Harris, AS Board member, repeatedly stated that the Associated Students cannot fund a non-AS group. Board member Joe Hann said that it is not fair to the students, the college or the communityfor publications to use space and equipment belonging to the Associated Students and not be affiliatedwith them. Publications fear that the AS Board will censure them by withdrawing funds, Harris said. BillDietrich, Publications Council member, said that they also fear censure from Flora and others, and thatfor maximum freedom they may try to initiate a subscription fee from students. An ad hoc committee ofthe publications council is currently investigating the feasibility of a subscription rate. An a l t e r n a t i v e to the Communications Council would be for publications to be under a senate council, in which casethey would no longer be a student activity, according to AS board members. The purpose of the board'saction, Harris said, is to establish publications as a student activity. Chairman Kennedy requested that a roll call vote be taken: five- board members voted for the motion, and two abstained. In response to theboard's action, Robert Thirsk, Publications Council chairman, said he didn't think the board had theauthority to dissolve the council. He said, "It's my understanding that President Flora approved the by-laws for the Publications Council. And only the college senate can change them. The board can'tarbitrarily drop the Publications Council or establish a Communications Council in lieu of it without theconsent of the Senate. The Senate is the only governing body that can do that, other than the Board ofTrustees." Council re-opens add!drop hearings The Academic Council has voted to reconsider itsdecision on implementation of the new add/drop rules. Acting chairman Joseph Crook announced March 6 as the date the council would re-open discussion on the new rules. The new add/drop rules whichwere approved last quarter by Academic Council has come under criticism because of its shortened drop period and its requirement that 80 per cent of all courses be successfully completed. The period duringwhich classes could be dropped would be limited to the first five days of the quarter by the new rules.Under current rules, classes can be dropped until the end of the sixth week. The new rules would allow a student to withdraw from a class after the drop period by taking a grade of "W" for the class. A "W"would be considered an unsuccessful completion. Grades of "F", "NP", "U" or unconverted "K", whichstands for an incomplete, would also be considered unsuccessful completions, but a "W" would not betaken into consideration in the calculation of the grade point average. It would be required, however, that 80 per cent of all courses taken be successfully completed. Failure to maintain an 80 per cent ratewould lead to academic probation and dismissal in much the same way as will failure to maintain a 2.0grade point average under existing rules. A major goal of the new add/drop rules was to cause thestudents to be responsible in the classes they register for. In Fall quarter 7,126 classes were dropped,nearly half of which were dropped too late to be added by students wishing to take the class. One side-effect of the decision to re-open hearings on the add/drop rules was the reversal of Academic Council'searly implementation of the "W" grading option. â€¢â€¢-â€¢ IT'S BLUNTED, just faking.

The self-study steering committee elected Jean Kruse as itsnew director Tuesday night. She will replace former director Harvey Stone. Kruse, former director ofHigginson and wife of the director of Nash, has been f a c i l i t a t o r of numerous self-study groups. As new director, Kruse said, "My first priority will be to get to everyone I can in the program and find outtheir feelings and . frustrations." . Kruse's second step will be to make a pamphlet, explaining s e l f - st u d y projects and presenting it to the faculty. Kruse will hold the position only five months. Even if thefederal grant is not renewed for self-study at the end of her term, Kruse wants to establish "good vibes"about the program so that it will continue. "It's a good educational process," Kruse said "and I believe it's viable." Even though it's a good Senate evaluation due soon Faculty relations major question by ALICE COLLINGWOOD A new concept in college governance for Western was born almost two years ago, andits progress will be reviewed soon. The All-College Senate had a slow childhood as it was organizingitself and learning about its constituencies. Many are only now beginning to recognize.its maturity. Thesenate was approved in principle by the Board of Trustees in June, 1971, and it is due for review at theend of two years. That review will determine whether the board will allow it to continue as it is or changeits constitution. If there is to be any question of the senate's effectiveness, some say it is likely to beaimed at the area of faculty-senate relations. Some senators believe challenges and non-cooperationfrom the faculty could undermine the senate's strength. Questions of the senate's powers in areas offaculty concernâ€”such as salary schedules, grievances and tenure and promotionâ€”have arisen sincethe senate was first formed. "The real problem is how to handle a small number of things which are notstudent concerns, REFERENCE TO SALARIES-Senate Chairman George Gerhold said the line between which matters the senate can handle and those it can't are blurred. such as faculty salary schedule,"Senator Robert Teshera of the geography faculty said. Teshera, who is also a Faculty Council member,said the question is who handles faculty affairs and how big that list is. He thinks students probably want a voice in tenure and promotion, which they would have were the senate to handle such matters, but hedoesn't believe they are, or should be, interested in deciding faculty salaries. Senate chairman GeorgeGerhold said the dividing line between which matters the senate can handle and those which it can't is a"very gray area." "This question has been' liffder debate ever since the senate was proposed," he said.Gerhold thinks one change that could be made in the constitution to clarify the senate's powers is insection 4.61. It says, in part: " . . . the Business and Finance Council shall appoint such committees asit deems appropriate to conduct its business. Among these committees there shall be appointed aWelfare Committee which shall have as its main function to develop and propose policies and schedulesfor salaries and fringe benefits throughout the College." Gerhold said union contracts cover most thingspertaining to faculty employment and this constitutional reference to salaries is a problem area. SenatorBrian Copenhaver of the general studies faculty believes the senate constitution will be approved by theBoard of Trustees if nothing intervenes between now and the time of the review. He thinks one of thethings that might intervene is a faculty vote against the senate. Knute Skinner, chairman of the FacultyCouncil, said the council may poll the faculty on the senate in conjunction with a review of whatrepresentation the faculty wants. One provision of the constitution allows the four senate constituenciesto organize themselves in any way they wish, with recognized agencies to represent and act for them.Teshera believes there are three alternatives for faculty representation: -Let the Faculty Council continueas a "limited-purpose" body. -Turn the functions over to the faculty members of the senate as a separate group. -Work through some collective bargaining agency. Senator Stanley Daugert of the philosophyfaculty, one of the original planners of the senate, said if the senate structure is finally approved as thecollege governing body by the Board of Trustees, the faculty still won't give up its powers. "The faculty isso jealous of its prerogatives that it isn't going to let the Board of Trustees tell it what to do," Daugertsaid. Teshera said he doesn't think both the senate and the Faculty Council will survive. He thinks thesenate is firmly established as the college decision-making body and will continue in existence. CollegePresident Charles J. Flora thinks the senate has been effective in doing the job it was set up to do-"bringing together -the various constituencies of the college" so problems can be discussed withmembers of all constituencies present. Copenhaver thinks some of the positive points the senate willhave when it is reviewed are its handling of such things as the Committee of Inquiry Report, administrative reorganization and the affirmative action program (for hiring women and minorities). ; "These point to aclear conception by the senate of its role in college life ana its willingness to act," he said. "The senateprovides a voice to the administration and the Board of Trustees that they are acting like they respect."Flora said the senate evaluation will be made during Spring quarter and that he does not yet have in mind any amendments that he will suggest regarding the senate structure. So far, he said, he is "pleased with the way it is developing." But Daugert expressed a note of uncertainty. "The.senate has lost somepower and has been challenged^ ignored and damned. It is hard to say how the review is going to go.''educational process, Kruse is frustrated with the way the program has been handled. Because of this,the new d i r e c t o r said that she understands the faculty's point of view. "Nobody really understandsthe procedure, or the self-study model for that matter," she said. "Not only is it a threat to their (thefaculty's) method of education, it's so sloppily handled, that it makes a bad impression," she said.About the self-study credit controversy, Kruse said, "something's got to be done about the way creditsare dished out." "We must show faculty, as individuals, what concrete results have come from self-study-we need their help," she added. Former director Harvey Stone is now program consultant, theposition he held last year. "I'm going to need him," Kruse said. "He's a very valuable person, and I'm glad he's staying on." PARKING LOT INCIDENT-Western student Steve Kirsop has been charged with thirddegree assault following a confrontation with security Feb. 4. Student charged: driving car at cop AWestern student was booked on charges of third degree assault following a Feb. 4 confrontation withsecurity in the Nash Hall parking lot. Steve Kirsop was driving a friend home early Sunday m o r n i n gwhen security patrolman, campus patrolman Dave Doughty approached his car and asked foridentification which Kirsop refused to produce. "I was dropping off a friend who lives at Nash Hall and Icould see no reason for the confrontation," he said. Then to avoid any further hassle, Kirsop said hestarted to leave the parking lot. The patrolman then stood in front of Jhe car, blocking it after it was inmotion, he said. Doughty then jumped onto the hood of the car as Kirsop was moving towards the exit,Kirsop said. T h e car t r a v e l ed approximately 50 to 60 feet when Kirsop's windshield was smashedby the patrolman's flashlight, according to Kirsop. Kirsop was "totally amazed by the whole ordeal." Heforesees a time when campus patrolmen, whose job is to issue tickets and protect campus p r o p e r ty , become police, enforcing actions that conflict with the rights of the students. He sees the incident as a "misunderstanding on the part of both sides as to who had the right to do what." Larry Daugert, aFairhaven lawyer, has taken Kirsop's case and the trial date will be set within a week. Security directorRobert G. Peterson, told the Front that no more information concerning the incident would be released at this time.

Louis Lallas, director of Western's Career Planning and Placement Center, saidthat "people who develop skills in looking for a job are much more successful" in finding one than people who don't have the skills. Job readiness includes letters of application, resumes, and interviewing skills. "In today's job market," Lallas said, "those who are landing jobs are those who can sell themselves. But . many students are unprepared in job readiness." In some cases, students have no idea what theywant and this has to be determined. Sometimes vocational tests are given and other times it's just a"matter of analyzing themselves. You cannot look for a position if you don't know what your goals are."When determining his employment needs, a student often wants a job that will fit in with his "lifestyle."The placement center provides information about companies and industries, and what kinds of jobs they offer. Unlike students in teacher education, who are usually "preparing for a specific teaching job,"students in the arts and sciences are entering a New rules stalled by Flora injunction very broad field ofemployment, Lallas said. He continued, "the basic needs" of both in job readiness "are still the same."The center provides step-by-step handouts, with detailed information, on the requirements for jobreadiness. Counselors at the center are available to explain the requirements. According to thehandouts, the first step of job readiness is writing letters of application and resumes. Letters should betypewritten on clean white SV^-by-l 1 inch paper and should be addressed to a specific person in orderto get proper attention. The first paragraph of the letter states the reason for writing to that particularcompany, and the second points" out specific qualifications of the writer. The last paragraph is aninvitation for further contact by mail or interview. Attached to the letter should be a one-page resume. Itshould include personal data (name, address, etc.), career objectives, education (since high school),scholastic and extracurricular information, employment experience, military status and date ofavailability. A resume serves many purposes. It can help a student determine and define his assets and liabilities, it can project his strongest qualifications and it Faculty Council declines collective bargainingjob The Faculty Council "declined the invitation" of College President Charles J. Flora to be consideredas a collective bargaining agent. In other action the council accepted the bid of Whatcom CountyPhysicians Service for faculty health insurance, and recommended guidelines for p u b l i s h i n ggrounds for promotion at its Feb. 15 meeting. Flora is asking all bodies on campus who are potentialcollective bargaining agents if they want to be considered for that job by the Board of Trustees. TheFaculty Council rejected the suggestion, with one member commenting 'that he "could not think of amore inappropriate body to take on this task." Welfare Committee chairman Willard Brown said that the bid of Whatcom County Physicians Service (W.C.P.S.) is $5 cheaper than the only other reasonablebid, which was offered by Blue Cross. He said that W.C.P.S. has also agreed to provide a bid for a major medical care program if enough faculty members do not want the comprehensive plan. T h e g u i d e l in e s for publication of grounds for promotion call for including the areas where the faculty memberexcelled. They specify that qualities which are evaluated as merely adequate not be listed. Thus, if aperson is promoted because of excellence in teaching, this would be noted. But if that person isevaluated as adequate in research, this would not be mentioned. The action is in response to Flora'srequest for guidelines on publication of promotions. Bach Mai fund drive raises $ 4 6 3 in B'ham A three-week fund raising-campaign in Bellingham has raised $463 for the rebuilding of Bach Mai hospital inHanoi. The drive, sponsored by the Human Rights Action Coalition (HRAC) and local Vietnam VeteransAgainst the War, is part of a nationwide campaign headed by Medical Aid for Indochina, Inc. All moneycollected goes directly to the fund for rebuilding the hospital which was destroyed by saturationbombing last December. Organizers of the drive see it as an important step toward what they call"popular responsibility." They believe U.S. citizens, as well as the government, must take an active rolein rebuilding Indochina. "The war was an act of our government with out funding and implied consent,"says Jeff Baloutine, a member of the HRAC, "We cannot abdicate total responsibility to the government for the rebuilding effort ahead. "With the Bach Mai hospital fund as the first step, people can expresstheir goodwill to the people of Vietnam by sending direct aid without depending upon the government todo everything for us." M e d i c a l Aid for Indochina,Inc., located in Cambridge, Mass., has set a $3million goal for the Bach Mai fund drive. In the first month of collecting, the American public donated$500,000. Baloutine said, "Response in Bellingham has been quite gratifying." can be part of hispermanent employee record and provide additional information to the employer.

ERA battles State Senate The Equal Rights Amendment^ t o the U.S. Constitution" approved by Washington's House of Representatives by a 78 to 19 vote; nowwaits for Senate approval. P r o p o n e n t s of the amendment, which would grant equal, rights underthe law to all persons regardless of sex, expect it to have a hard fight in the Senate. There are 12women in the House; two voted against it. There are no women in the Senate. To bring the amendmentto a Senate vote, the Constitution and Elections Committee must pass it and then it will be put on thecalendar for a vote in the Senate. Twenty-seven states have approved the amendment to the U.S.Constitution; 38 are needed to ratify it. College President Charles Flora has granted an injunctionagainst recent decisions of the Academic Council on course withdrawal, probation and dismissal. Theaction came at Tuesday's AS Board of Directors meeting at the request of Board Chairman JimKennedy. The rules adopted by the Academic Council would require that all unwanted classes bedropped in the first five days of the quarter, and that students complete 80 per cent of quarterly andcumulative units or be issued a warning. The rules further state that if a "K" (incomplete) is not converted by the end of the following quarter, it would be counted as an unsuccessful completion. The AcademicCoordinating Commission will now review the rules. If it supports the Academic Council rules, themeasure could still go before the All-College Senate, Kennedy said. In other business, the AS Boardapproved a motion by student Linda Ballinger to establish an ad hoc committee to prepare a studentposition on faculty tenure and promotion. The committee, which is subject to review by the AS Board,will recommend policy to the Faculty Council.

Holly 733-9982 by ROB BALDWIN Six days a week, needypersons load up with cereal, macaroni, canned fruit, beans, milk or whatever else is on the shelf at theBellingham Food Bank, on Gladstone Street. Since the Food Bank was first set up in the basement ofthe Salvation Army building 18 months ago, volunteers have waged a running battle to keep the shelvesstocked with food. According to one Food Bank worker there is a crisis every month. "We've neveractually turned anyone away, but volunteers have sometimes had to go down to the store and buy foodwith their own money." Relying at the beginning on donations from churches and private citizens, thedemand for food grew to the point where the Food Bank's board of directors opted to join the SeattleNeighbors in Need, a food relief organization funded through a grant by the federal government. A monthly shipment supplies the bunk of the bank's food. According to one of the bank's coordinators, BeaTodhunter, the Food Bank served over 900 persons last c month. ^ "Every day it seems like people 3come in that have never been here k3 before. We try to give them a balanced ^ diet, but we're alwaysrunning out of lt;a things like meat, milk and eggs." aq "Some people think people just live off the FoodBank without trying to feed themselves. There are a few we feel are doing this, but most are n o t ." Each Food Bank user's name goes into a confidential file along with such information as whether or not theyreceive unemployment compensation, food stamps, social security payments, a pension, etc. and thenumber of children in the family. This is used to estimate the bank's need and keep track of who is using its services. All age groups use the Food Bank according to Todhunter. A lot of men RUNNINGBATTLEâ€”The Food Bank tries to provide a balanced diet for people who come in, but it is alwaysrunning out of supplies. Some volunteers help stock the shelves by buying food with their own money.\IKI\G WUNCPY The college laundry has lower cost per student than any other laundry in town.

They can't live at home because their parents would be docked on their welfare checks. It's atough row to hoe." Local churches and individuals donate food and a little money and one recentneighborhood canvassing drive, organized with the help of the Army Reserve personnel and trucks, netted 40 boxes of groceries. But the Food Bank runs out of supplies every month and this June theNeighbors in Need federal grant will run out, dperiving the bank of its major supply of food. Another bankcoordinator, JoAnne Cross, hopes for a renewal of the grant on either the state or federal level. "We'vesent letters to Jackson, Magnuson, and Meeds and we're still encouraging people to talk to theirlegislators in Olympia, but we have nothing concrete. We're the most hopeful about Magnuson; he wasresponsible for the grant in the first place. When asked if larger food drives and church contributionscould make up for the loss of Neighbors in Need support, Food Bank workers said it was possible butnot probable. Similar banks in Ferndale and Lynden operate on the contributions of the town's people and churches alone, but the larger Bellingham community doesn't seem as responsive. Todhunter thinks ifthe grant is not renewed, and local contributions fail to make up the difference, the bank will have tobegin strict inspection of all applicants and start turning some away. Suggestions to avoid this havebeen: asking each person in Bellingham to donate one dollar to the bank; asking each church inBellingham to donate five dollars per month; and organizing city-wide paper drives. The Food Bank staffis determined to provide their services to anyone who needs them. As one worker said, "We'll operateany way we can." House passes 19-year-old drinking bill (The Senate Rules Committee bottled this bill Wednesday. For the second time, by a 7-6 vote, they chose not to send it to the floor.) The bill to lower the drinking age to 19 has been approved by the Washington State House of Representatives. Themeasure passed after an amendment to the bill increased the minimum age from 18 to 19. The bill isnow before the Senate Rules Committee. Its chances of reaching the floor during the current session are considered to be favorable. On the 80-17 vote for the bill, Reps. Barney Goltz, D-Bellingham, DuaneBerentson, R-Burlington and Don Hansey, R-Bellingham, voted in favor. Only Rep. Dan Van Dyk, D-Lynden voted against it. Van Dyk explained the major question involved the rights of majority, all of which were conferred by the last session except the drinking privilege. He said he couldn't support a bill which didn't recognize that question. ---------- Western Front - 1973 February 23 - Page 5 ---------- Friday, February 23,1973 Western Front 5 the â€ž western front editorials...

Q19?3 6.Mrter New council isbad idea Press repression is alive and well on Western's campus. The AS Board of Directors Mondaycapped a series of threats and ultimatums to publications by resolving to create their own"Communications Council" and have it responsible for student publications. The board decided toconstruct a new council around a policy whichâ€”less than a week earlierâ€”was labeled "unworkable" by he Student Publications Council and rejected by the College Services Council. As its rationale for theaction, the board blames the Publications Council for not affiliating itself with the AS government. Theresolution to create a new council replaced an earlier board motion to cut off all funds for publications atthe end of this quarter. What the board, in its impatience, has failed to take into account is that thecurrent Publications Council is responsible to the Board of Trustees through the college president. Acouncil so established has no authority to "affiliate" itself with Associated Students or anyone else.Also, the trustees, through the president, have authorized the current Publications Council to act for thecollege as publisher of The Western Front, Klipsun and Jeopardy. For one faction on campus to try tosupercede that authorization and claim for itself the role of campus publisher is not only dangerous, it'sridiculous. The board of directors say they will still expect the trustees to accept legal responsibility forcollege publications, even though the trustees will have no voice in how they are structured and operated. This is extremely unlikely. Another aspect of the problem that the AS board fails to recognize is that thequestion of where publications should fit into the all-college governance structure has been sent to theAll-College Senate. Until the Senate decides where publications fit in, it would be ludicrous for thepresent Publications Council to "affiliate" itself with any group. Likewise, it is just as ridiculous for anyone Senate constituency, like AS, to decide that it will be the publications' boss and act as campuspublisher. Still more ridiculous and infantile have been the "You better play ball with us or we'll cut yourfunds" ultimatums that student government has ' been sending to the Publications Council and to thepublications staffs themselves. Another flaw in the AS thinking is in the actual implementation of the"Communications Council." Its document calls for representatives from the publications staffs, from theSenate's Faculty Caucus, the Staff Council and the administration. But until the publications matter issettled on an all-college level, it is extremely doubtful that these groups will send anyone to the ASBoard's new maverick council. The basic point that the AS Board seems to miss is that the only way toinsure a free press on campus is to so structure the publication process so that no one group can takecontrol or impose its wishes. The board's- attitude toward publications demonstrates, at best, a grossmisunderstanding of the situation, and at worst, a desire for press control ala Nixon. The directors saythey have the power to back up their action because they hold the purse strings to publications. If thisproves to be the case, then it only serves to demonstrate that it's high time the publications purse strings be placed in steadier, more responsible hands. / tbe_ western front staff EDITOR: Jack BroomMANAGING EDITOR: Rodger Painter PRODUCTION: Duff Wilson EDITORIAL PHONE 676-3161SPORTS: Howard Scott ADVERTISING PHONE 676-3160 COPY EDITORS: James Heitzman, RahnLahti, Dennis Mansker, Judy Mooers, Dennis Ritchie AD MANAGER: Richard Roff GRAPHICS: ElsiVassdal, Sue Giese BUSINESS MANAGER: Terri Whitney PHOTO EDITOR: Roberi NealePHOTOGRAPHERS: Bob McLauchlan, Thomas Schultz, Jim Thomson REPORTERS: ChristineAnderson, Scott Anderson, Rob Baldwin, Alan Bauer, John Brewington, Jim Brooks, Sonja Brown, DougCockburn, Alice Collingwood, Bill Dietrich, Nicholas Gardner, Victoria Hamilton, John Harris, Bruce-Hayes, Rochelle Henderson, Heidi Henken, Tom Home, O.K.

[ letters. â€¢ â€¢ â€¢ Finds no 'love' in atheists Editor, Western Front: Iwas quite intrigued when I picked up a Western Front and read '"Militant Atheists' Counterattack," so Iopened my paper and found an article entitled "Atheists Organize Against Christians." Somehow whatI'd read up to this point just didn't bring visions of love and non-violence to my mind. And then, when Iread '"Our first target is the Campus Crusade for Christ'," I looked skyward to see if any bombs werefalling. I never could find the word "LOVE" in the article, yet God loves us all even if we are atheists whodon't know that He exists. Perhaps if these people would seek God's love both in the Bible and in theirhearts they would find that Christians aren't attacking them. Our goals are pretty much the same, ifpeople don't wake up to themselves they all will perish. Doug Coleman Snohomish, Wash. Hospital fee 'outrageous* Editor, Western Front: Your article in high praise of St. Luke's Emergency Facilities(Emergency center operates efficiently; Feb. 16, 1973) ignores the single largest problem. I quote fromthe article itself "The cost of emergency treatment varies at St. Luke's. A flat emergency fee ($10) andphysician's fee ($12) is charged to all patients." The writer seems to pass by this outrageous fee as if itwere nothing. An emergency center must not only be efficient, but must be economically open to all. Ifone has to weigh the question of whether or not to see medical help, then there is something horriblywrong. Dick Falkenbury Fairhaven Disruption policy puzzling Editor, Western Front: These Christianfanatics have gone too far! They dare proclaim their message in classes! So the campusâ€”studentsand administrationâ€”is up in arms over this clear and present danger. Dean McDonald emphasizes thatthese Christians are out of line and violate college policy. But, tell me this. During the past three or fouryears when disrupting, nihilist students took over parts of many class periods with their "take it over-shut it down, occupy and desecrate, talk no-violence yes, grant our non-negotiable demands, the college isirrelevant and dehumanizing, down with e v e r y t h i n g " messages the student body at Western, thecollege administration and Dean McDonald were curiously silent! Question: Where were the objectors to, usurping class time then? Why did it take the college approximately three years to announce a policyagainst class disrupters? Answer: Fear. Everybody knows you can squelch Christians without fear ofphysical retaliation. Christian students won't seize buildings, wire bombs or initiate physical violence.But how we all quaked in our shoes while those other persuaders held sway! Truth is, even, our collegeadministration dared not oppose them. But Christians? Everybody knows they're easy targets. Nobody's afraid of them! No, I'm not a Jesus freak or fanatic. I'm just a neutral student trying to understand thewhole scene, not just the easy part of it. Alan C. Greene 614 High Street Baby bibs for borrowersEditor, Western Front: Once again I must speak out against another golden shaft wielding policy whichis being perpetrated against us humble undergraduates. Keeping in mind several budget limitations, Isuggest that Wilson Library purchase baby bibs and feeding spoons. Such purchases would be more inkeeping with then-present library check-out policy' for faculty and graduate students. The present policyallows quarter privileges for graduate students and yearly for faculty. Undergraduates have only a twoweek check-out. I know personally of incidents where graduate students and faculty have received"casual" reminders and mild remonstrances for materials checked out eons ago, while someundergraduate students have been observed, figuratively speaking, to prostrate themselves beforecertain library zealots for going one day beyond the grade period. I personally have had to contactprofessors to obtain overdue material for my research which they had forgotten about in the trunk of theircar. That the library desires to. retrieve overdue material for use by others is admirable; that it allowsspecial privileges to some as an official policy is a personal affront to my sense of fair play. Thejustification for this policy is unclear. It is alleged that the faculty and graduate students seem torepresent a special class and ought to have special privileges. It is also alleged that their need touselibrary materials is seen as more "legitimate" than an undergraduate's need. Such justifications areat best highly suspect and in some cases a laughing matter. I challenge Wilson Library to offer anyjustifications for such policies. I might also add that some of the library staff has also expresseddisapproval of such a policy. I recognize that a new policy m e a n s erasing another t i m e - h o n o r e d academic institution. I'm not sure the faculty is ready for it. After all, I know some of the faculty arestill brooding over no freshmen beanies or homecoming dances.

In the hall,men and women were placed in rooms at random. Each sex has two bathrooms and a resident aide.Planners intended the Kappa experiment to be modeled after similar arrangements at the University ofWashington. The experiment was to last only through Fall quarter, but it is continuing because "it turnedout really well," said Jim Mulenos, resident aide. "They don't sleep together, or anything that theadministration was afraid they would do. The reason it's a success is because they relate on a humanlevel, not on a sexual level."

WK by ALICECOLLINGWOOD A single-engine plane sped down the runway of Bellingham Airport, climbed into the sky and took four people on an unusual field trip. They took to the air to examine the natural and man-madefeatures they so often study on maps, to bring a touch of reality to their paper world. They were students in Robert Teshera's geography 460 class, the teaching of geography. The students were learning how tomake a field trip meaningful by planning one, taking part in it and evaluating its effectiveness. Their flightplan took them from Bellingham Airport to Ladner, B.C., then east to Mission City, B.C., south to LakeWhatcom and back to the airport. Using map scales, distances and the plane's speed, the students haddetermined the time needed for each leg of the trip down to one-half minute, and the plane was only twominutes late touching down at the airport. Teshera believes such a field trip is a "vehicle" for usingdifferent types of mapsâ€”flight charts, topographical sheets and othersâ€”and translating them intoreality. He said he first realized the drawbacks to earthbound geography field trips as a graduate student on a flight from Washington to Montana. As the plan passed over the Columbia River Basin, he saw theterrain in a different light, and patterns A VIEW FROM ABOVE-Jim Smith and Robert Teshera look downat terrain surrounding Bellingham.

"I saw flying as a means oftranslating between map and real earth," he said. Jim Smith, a graduate geography student who planned the leg of the trip between Ladner and Mission City, B.C., said the main objectives of the flight were toview a big city, a couple of major river systems and farmland development. Smith, who has taughtgeography at the junior and senior high school levels for six years, said there are still a number ofgeography teachers who take the "capital city, highest mountain, main product of a country" approach toteaching geography. "They don't try to convey why the people of a region live the way they do," he said.Smith thinks this approach stems from competition among teachers to have their students get highmarks in the National Achievement Test, which asks such questions. "I want to teach them somethingthey can put to use in later lives." And part of effectively teaching geography, Teshera said, is makingfield trips mean something Â£j| to the students. p[ "The motivation for this class project is 0| recognitionof the fact that most field trips in A ---------- Western Front - 1973 February 23 - Page 7 ---------- Friday, February 23, 1973 Western Front 7 imously popular unaware that it is from the University of likeKappa's are [fused to it this way," ends that are guys and lot of things together, like skating parties andjam sessions."

Sue Bissonette, who lived in Mathes, alsolikes the presence of the opposite sex. She said that there were guys in Mathes Hall anyway. With bothsexes present, "the men check on the women's behavior and vice-versa," said Preston. About thewomen, she said, "They've got male company, so they don't have to sneak." She said that competitionamong girls for men's attention is less than on an all-girl floor. "People thought there would be pairing up," said Colleen Dinsmore, third floor's resident aide. "But it's more like a brother-sister situation." Everyinterviewee advocated more floors like Kappa's third. Shannon Point Marine Center construction begins,open to all Construction began on a $354,522 laboratory-classroom at Shannon Point Marine Centernear Anacortes, with a ground breaking ceremony last Tuesday. College President, Charles J, Flora, and the director of Shannon Point, William C. Summers of Huxley College, were among the attendingofficials. The facility will be administered by Western. Its services will be available for use by academicdepartments and cluster colleges at Western as well as by students from a consortium of statesupported colleges. - The consortium members are: Central and Eastern Washington State Colleges,Skagit Valley College and E d m o n d s and Everett Community Colleges. Students from any stateinstitution of higher education will be able to study at the facility. The laboratory-classroom building is athree-story masonry structure, with exterior walls of giant brick, reinforced concrete floors and a,red;cedar-shake roof.

A long agenda faces the All-CollegeSenate Monday night, with items ranging from administrative reorganization to internal publications.College President Charles J. Flora gave the senate his proposal for administrative reorganization inJanuary, and a senate ad hoc committee has been working on suggested revisions. The plan calls forchanges in lines of responsibility for administrators. A College Services Council p r o p o s a l for internal communications will be presented to the senate for consideration. It calls for making FAST, the faculty and staff newsletter, the disseminator of information for faculty. This would include policy statements,agendas and minutes of meetings and actions of college agencies, as well as-the regular offerings of the newsletter. The proposal also encourages The Western Front to publish the contents of the studentactivities bulletin, which would be discontinued. The daily bulletin would be posted on all conspicuousbulletin boards and sent to the Associated Students, the Viking Union staff and academic departments. The Executive Committee will also make a recommendation for formation of a committee to review the senate. The Board of Trustees requested the review when it approved the senate in principle almost two years ago. The committee will e v a l u a t e the s e n a t e 's effectiveness and make any .recommendations for changes it thinks are necessary. A six-man committee is suggested by theExecutive Committee, composed of the heads of each of the four senate constituencies (students,faculty, administrators and staff) and two senate faculty members. The senate Committee on Councilsand Committees will present some information on the affirmative action program for hiring of women andminorities.

TO BE COMPLETED THIS FALL-An artist's sketch of what the Shannon PointMarine Center will look like when completed. Construction began this week. office-laboratories, dry labs,a darkroom and administrative offices are planned. An electrical heating system will eliminate emissions into the air at the laboratory facility. Fluorescent lighting will be installed. All structural elements willremain exposed for low maintenance and construction cost. Floors will be bare concrete with interior,walls having exposed masonry except for a portion on the second floor. There are no suspendedceilings or other cover-up materials. Shannon Point is located on 71 acres immediately west of theWashington State Ferry Terminal at Anacortes. The site contains 2,900 feet of shoreline a freshwaterpond and a forest area. The Marine Center was developed primarily for undergraduate instruction andresearch in the marine sciences. The laboratory will complement graduate-level research facilitiesoperated by the University of Washington at Friday Harbor. Attempts have been made to make the newbuilding as unobtrusive as possible. It probably will not be possible to view it from a distance, exceptfrom the air. Completion of the building is scheduled for fall of 1973. Included in the project in addition to the laboratory and classroom building are an access road, a parking area and a sea-water pumpingsystem. A small residence unit, a visitors' center and a conference center are tentatively planned forlater phases of development.

But today Allan Kaprow is happening at Western, organizing one of the participatory art forms for which he has become famous. Kaprow is a painter, sculptor, critic, designer of environment and primeinventor of the spontaneous "happening," an art form that has spread world wide and one in which he isinviting Western students to take part. The Happening blurs art and life, using t w e n t i e t h centuryjunk, creativity and environment to blend everyday experience into slightly wild activities that reflect onpeople and what they do. Kaprow's Western happening will be unique, enlisting the participation of asmany Western students as want to â€¢ volunteer into an afternoon-long event that will begin at noontoday. A discussion of the.happening will follow at 8 p.m. in the Viking Union Lounge. Kaprow'sHappening is sponsored by the Continuing Symposium on the Contemporary Arts, the NationalEndowment For the Arts and the Whatcom Museum Society. Students interested in participating inKaprow's art should gather in the Viking Union Lounge at noon today. Gene Garber of the English faculty says that Kaprow will use 100 to 150 people or more. Kaprow stresses that his fluid art form is to beexperienced, not just observed. He has been studying Western and Bellingham since yesterday,deciding what form the happening will take. Teams of participants will probably be sent all overBellingham to perform their role in the production. Garber advises a sack lunch be taken by .participants. Kaprow has organized more than 100 happenings in the past, some of which have included a mockmurder and funeral, a marriage between a girl and a compact car, playing a Beatles record in arefrigerator and making a jelly sandwich out of an automobile hood. Â» A Happening called the"Courtyard" involved the erection on a 30 foot high frame mountain covered with a tarp in a hotelcourtyard. Actors on three hotel floors shouted at each other across the mountain as it erupted withblack paper balls, dishes, and pots and pans. A girl in a night gown listening to a transistor radioclimbed to the top of the mountain with considerable sensuality, followed by mock press photographerswho took pictures of the girl as she struck cheesecake poses. Then a second mountain descended fromwhere it had been suspended upside down above the courtyard. The Happening's climax came when thetwo mountain peaks joined, swallowing the girl. Kaprow has been using the debris, smells, lights, andsounds of civilization for 20 years to develop first an art that surrounded the viewer, called theEnvironment, and then his more informal and changing Happenings, set in fields, breweries, and woods.Kaprow stresses that the Happening mixes art and life, occurs only once, and makes time variable anddiscontinuous. His erasure of distinctions is reflected in that his work has been discussed in journals ofpoetry, painting, dance, architecture, music, drama, education, and in Time Magazine under "ModernLiving." Kaprow, 45, who has studied painting with Hans Hoffman and music with John Cage, is anAssociate Dean at the California Institute of the Arts. His work has been exhibited in major museums inAmerica and Europe, and he has won the Copley Foundation Award and a Guggenheim Fellowship. 'The Getaway' is tasteless by DAVE PETERSON Relying on the amount of bullets fired instead of acting,"The Getaway" is a tasteless robbery thriller with McQueen and MacGraw terribly miscast. The storytakes place in Texas where recent prison p a r o l e e "Doc" McCoy (McQueen) and his wife Carol (AliMacGraw) are told to rob a bank of a huge sum or else see Doc back behind bars. T a k i n g twopeculiar henchmen to do the basics, the McCoys succeed, but one of their cohorts shoots a cop. Backat the rendezvous the remaining henchman, Rudy (Al Lettieri), attempts to take the money and run but,alas, Doc draws first and gives him five or six bullets into his bullet-proof vest. The McCoys then drive to the instigator's home, she shoots him and the dynamic duo take the money and run. From here on outSam Peckinpah's direction delights in showing the contorted features of bullet-riddled men as a line ofred marks the very methodical escape of the McCoys. Steve McQueen as Doc, the gun-slinging, wife-slapping meanie, does his best acting with his shotgun instead of his mouth or vocal chords.

The first two words she says are, "I'm sorry," and maybe she was. Possiblynoting that the relationship between Doc and Carol was not erotic, an obscene subplot hatches on filmbetween Rudy and Fran. As far as the action of the movie is concerned this weird diversion is a flatabortion. If Peckinpah liked to direct actors as much as showing the viewer in slow motion that hisbullets, indeed, hit their target, he might find a good movie with his name on it. But this is not it.

At left is Ryan's mother Ard with clinic nurse Mrs. G. Salisbury giving the shot. Health department offers many community services by PATT JOHNSONMany students think the Whatcom County Health Department is synonymous with VD checkups andPlanned Parenthood. Although these are the best-known services to the college community, thedepartment offers many other diversified services. The biggest single program sponsored by the HealthDepartment at 509 Girard is immunizations. It is the community center for vaccines and overseas shots.There is a sliding fee schedule for those who can pay. This program is geared for the general populationand is open every afternoon. The fastest-growing program is the Well Child program. This programprovides examinations for babies to see that they are growing properly. Patients get routineimmunizations. Also included in the program are classes to teach mothers how to raise their children.This is a free program designed for low-income people and is held mornings by appointment. There isalso a free tuberculosis outpatient treatment clinic which includes about 1,000 patients. X-rays and drugs are administered to patients who need them. Another free service is the Venereal Disease clinic heldevery afternoon by appointment. College students comprise one-half of the Health Department's load.Infectious cases are treated and interviewed for contacts who are advised to contact the clinic or go totheir private physician for treatment. The Conservation of Hearing program is a free service designedmainly for preschool-age children. Children suspected of having hearing problems can have their hearingchecked at the Health Department. Schools are required by State law to check pupils' hearing everyother year. Children who have a hearing a loss are treated at the Health Department or sent to a privatedoctor. A free Mental Retardation Diagnostic Service also geared for young children offers completetests for children suspected of being retarded. Through a nursing service, clinic nurses work as I schoolnurses for schools that don't hire their own. These include Blaine, Ferndale, Meridian, Mt. Baker andNooksack school districts. A Family Health program provides counseling to financially or otherwisedeprived families on what sort of medical care is needed for the family and where to find it. TheCommunity Health program maintains a continuing communicable disease surveillance for the county.For this purpose, a complete stock of materials and mailing containers for sending specimens to theState laboratory is kept at the Health Department. The Mental Health and Illness program advises people of where to find help. A psychologist and nurse on the staff investigate complaints by family or neighbors and either advise the ill person about treatment or seek a commitment through the courts. There is alsoa clinic which provides further treatment to patients returning from institutions. The birth and deathcertificates of people who are born or die in Whatcom County are obtained and on file at the HealthDepartment. The food handler's test for restaurant workers is given at the Center. Environmental Healthspecialists also licence and make periodic inspections of food service "establishments to upgradesanitary standards. Health Department officials inspect and sample milk at both dairies andpasteurization plants to ensure proper production of milk and milk products. They also inform consumersof potential health hazards associated with raw milk consumption. Officials also sample public andprivate water supplies to ensure that water sources are free from contamination and to requireconstruction of water facilities which provide safe, adequate water. Sewage tanks are also inspected toeliminate faulty systems and to reduce sewage pollution of underground and surface waters. After a fullday of these programs, three nights a week the facilities are opened to Planned Parenthood. This is oneof the better-known programs at the clinic. Planned Parenthood has its own board, but the HealthDepartment handles grants for it and donates the building and some help. As Dr. Phillip Jones, directorof the clinic stated, the Whatcom County Health Department is "basically a double-shift clinic."

Thesix member team will face Southern Oregon and Central. These are the only schools in the conferenceto field swim teams. The Viks will be sending four swimmers, Tom Ward, Don Williams, Bruce Johnsonand Paul Simmerly, and two divers, Robin Allen and Doug Brown. Ward, this year's captain, willprobably be swimming the 100 and 200 yd. butterfly and with the 50 yd. freestyle. Williams, along withWard, will be swimming the 100 and '200 butterfly and the 500 yd. freestyle. Johnson will swim in the100 yd. and 200 yd. backstroke and the 500 yd. freestyle. Simmerly will round off the team with the 100 and 200 yd. breaststroke and the 200 yd. individual medley. All four swimmers will enter the 400 yd.medley relay and the 800 yd. freestyle relay. Both divers will compete in the one and three metercompetition. Allen is a former Evco diving champion. which will be. fought over next week at Western.Western took second to WSU in last year's tournament and barely defeated the Cougars 53-47 in theironly meeting this season. WSU's main offensive threat is 6-5 center Jennifer Gray. Gray was out withan injury in the Viking's previous game against the Cougars and may make a big difference in tomorrow's game. A win over WSU will give the Vikings the i psychological advantage when they meet the Cougars in the regional tournament. Both teams have a good chance of making the finals since they are the twotop seeds. Central will be out to revenge its close 47-43 loss to the Viks earlier this year. The Wildcats'scrappy playing brought them back from a 21-13 halftime score to take the lead twice in the fourthquarter. "Central is always tough," Coach Lynda Goodrich said. "It should be a real dog fight." Westerndestroyed Central's ho'pes for the regional championship last year by knocking the Wildcats out of thetournament in a semi-final game. Western's chances for a double victory tomorrow lie in its ability tomaintain a fast break pace. "If our running game is on neither team will be able to stop us," Goodrichsaid.

The A.S. meets in Red Square once per quarter as a way to facilitate conversation and distribute information about current A.S. issues, said David Toyer, vice president for Legislative and Community Affairs. "We're out here to show students that we are accessible," A.S. President Victor Cox said. "We're here to show there really isn't anything to hide. If students have questions following the resignations, we're Matt Anderson /The Western Front David Toyer and Michelle Yousey respond to Jennifer Brown's questions concerning Morgan Hepfer's resignation. Board reinstates Carrel to tech fee committee By Siobhan Millhouse THE WESTERN FRONT The A.S. board voted unanimously to reinstate William Carrel to the Student Technology Fee Committee and admitted that the STFC guidelines were unclear. "(Carrel's) expertise is not something that can be replaced easily," said Rafael Castaneda, A.S. vice president for Academic Affairs and STFC chair. "I've been trying to figure out what is best for the committee, what's fair and what's right." It took less than 10 minutes at Wednesday's board meeting for the board to reinstate Carrel to his previous position. The board said the verbal contract the STFC agreed do did not violate the First Amendment. A lot of work is in the STFC's future. The committee faces developing a clear set of guidelines and regulations for future STFC members. "I think that the rules of the committee in this case were very broadly applied and capricious," Carrel said. "The whole problem came out of the bylaws and a general misunderstanding," Castaneda said. Carrel said after meeting with Castaneda, prior to Wednesday, he was not certain what the outcome of the board meeting would be. "What can I say?" Carrel asked. "I'm happy, that's what I wanted all along. I just didn't See REINSTATE, page 6 By Terrill Simecki THEWESTERNFRONT ; The Associated Students board of directors appointed Cedric Bolton the new A.S. vice president for Diversity at Wednesday's board meeting. Bolton replaces former Vice President for Diversity Morgan Hepfer, who resigned from the position in February, citing a lack of support and cooperation on the board's behalf. "I feel like I have a big job ahead of me," Bolton said. "I'm happy, and I am ready to work." . The board unanimously voted in Bolton's favor. "He stood out both as someone that everyone could get along with, and his credentials were very good," said Rafael Castaneda, vice president for Academic Affairs. "He has a lot of experience dealing with people, communicating with people and he conducted himself in a professional way, and that made a big impression on a lot of the board members." The board chose Bolton, a senior majoring in general studies, over Kim Morrison, a senior, majoring in American cultural studies and Michael Tenney, a Fairhaven senior, military veteran and member of the Whatcom County Human Rights Task Force, after screening the candidates in a three-part selection process. Before the meeting, a panel consisting of A.S. President Victor Cox, Vice President of B u s i n e s s O p e r a t i o n s Michelle Yousey and Personnel Director April Uskoski interviewed the candidates and reviewed their resumes. "All three candidates were amazing," Cox said. "Their Cedric Bolton Western expansion crowds Happy Valley By Jaime Martin THE WESTERN FRONT The future impact Western will have on the Happy Valley neighborhood concerned many residents last Thursday at the Bellingham Planning and Development Commission hearing to consider the first draft of the Happy Valley Neighborhood Plan. "I don't want to sleep at Western or have my home as part of an auxiliary campus," homeowner and Western graduate student Tom Dunson said. Terrill Simecki/The Western Front Happy Valley Elementary School students await their bus ride. "It's almost as if the city of Bellingham has resigned Happy Valley to Western expansion." This concern stems from Western's interest in expanding the campus into Happy Valley, mainly through parking lots, institutional offices and a proposed storm- water treatment facility. Happy Valley encompasses 627 acres bordered by Interstate 5 to the east, Old Fairhaven Parkway to the south, an irregular line between 14th and 20th Streets to the west and Bill McDonald Parkway to the north. "Western wants to steamroll our neighborhood â€” and squeeze us out of Happy Valley," resident John Survey said. Most residents said they would like to see other Bellingham neighborhoods take some of the burden produced by Western. One resident wondered why See HAPPY VALLEY, page~6 resumes were outstanding. Their -answers. to the-questions: were great." Each candidate answered three questions in an open discussion during the board meeting: What does diversity mean to you? What do you see as the most important issues facing minorities at Western Washington University? If you were to be appointed vice president for Diversity what would be your goals for next quarter? "Cedric's experience, his initiative and his understanding of diversity was really good," Cox said.

Rescuers found them Wednesday morning because they carried a whistle that attracted the attention of a passing tug boat. The two men from Bellingham were all right when rescuers found them on Decatur Island, located on the east side of the San Juan Islands. The Coast Guard had been searching Bellingham Bay since midnight Tuesday when one man's mother reported them missing. Mayor commends police for calming Mardi Gras crowds Seattle Mayor Paul Schell said he is proud of police who controlled the crowd early Wednesday in Pioneer Square. "Fat Tuesday is no excuse for . drunken rowdiness," Schell said. Police said the use of pepper spray was justified to protect life and property. Spokesman Clem Benton said partiers threw bottles at officers when they went to help a woman who fell off a newspaper stand. Hundreds of people filled Pioneer Square streets. They were drinking at taverns and bars as part of the Mardi Gras celebration. When the crowd refused to disperse, officers fired spray and,arrested 11 people. Five officers suffered minor injuries. NATIONAL NEWS Bradley, McCain come up short on Super Tuesday Bill Bradley walked picket lines, spoke of his commitment to race relations and assailed Al Gore for past ambivalence on abortion. Still, the Democratic Party's core constituencies â€” organized labor, minorities and abortion-rights groups â€” remained loyal to the Clinton- Gore White House. After being shut out in 16 primaries and caucuses on Tuesday â€” and in Iowa and New Hampshire before that â€” Bradley described his campaign as a success, if not by the number of votes then by the strength of ideas. "We've brought core Democratic issues to the fore," Bradley told his disappointed supporters. John McCain couldn't reach enough Republicans, and Bill Bradley saw his core supporters flock to Al Gore. That was Super Tuesday in a nutshell. Texas Gov. George W. Bush rode support from Republican faithful, conservatives and the religious right to steamroll past McCain. The Arizona senator had support from much smaller groups: moderates, independents and Democrats who crossed over into the Republican primaries, according to the exit polls conducted Tuesday by Voter News Service for The Associated Press and television networks. Bush succeeded in convincing large numbers of Republican voters that McCain was not conservative enough. Nearly half the voters in New England and New York questioned McCain's conservative credentials; in other states, it was a t least one-third. INTERNATIONAL NEWS Palestinians, Israelis set to resume talks Palestinians and Israelis ended a crisis in the .peace process Wednesday by each conceding what had been a cardinal "no": Israelis allowed greater U.S. involvement, and Palestinians accepted territory not abutting Jerusalem. In a telling sign of the renewed U.S. : role, it was President Clinton's top envoy, Dennis Ross, who announced the resumption of peace talks, flanked by Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak and Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat. Ross, who said the peace talks would resume in Washington after the four-day Muslim Eid al-Adha holiday beginning March 16, also said the sides are committed to "work in the spirit of partnership and mutual confidence." The accelerated pace â€” aiming for the outline of a permanent agreement by May and for a full-fledged deal by Sept. 13 - was nonetheless fraught with issues that could sideline an agreement. Arafat suspended the talks early last month over an interim Israeli troop withdrawal from 6.1 percent of the West Bank. China executes senior official China executed a corrupt deputy provincial governor on Wednesday, underscoring the government's determination to end pervasive graft that has eroded support for Communist Party rule. Officials timed the execution to coincide with the country's most public political event and was followed by televised images of the official's ill-gotten gains: caches of cognac, piles of U.S. and Chinese cash, gold watches, diamond rings and a golden Buddha.

Unfortunately, one piece of the project is missing, .and Rieck thinks someone stole it. Classmate Leana Korthuis noticed the piece, a magnifying lens worth up to $400, was missing March 3. The alleged theft occurred hours before Western's Senior Industrial Design class presented senior projects at The Greenhouse in downtown Bellingham. Korthuis said she believes the piece was stolen between 2 and 4 p.m., as she and other students were setting up the exhibit. The store was open to the public. Rieck was out of town at the time of the theft. "I was just sick to my stomach," Rieck said. "It'a just sad that people don't realize all the hours and hours, energy and time (I) put into it." Rieck and Korthuis describe the piece as an abstract, aluminum magnifying glass with an acrylic lens, about four inches long. aIt was really cool and unique, - totally different than anything," Korthuis said. The object rested underneath a glass plate but was open to the hands of the public. "It's the kind of store (where)you pick up stuff and look at (it)," Rieck said. "I think people got kind of confused." Rieck's piece was among a number of projects on display at The Greenhouse, located at 1235 Cornwall Ave. "They were pleased to have a local display," said Joan Olson, manager of The Greenhouse. "There was a great turnout, (but) this kind of marred the event," Olson said. "This (theft) is not typical of our customers," Olson said. "We would have never expected it." Rieck contacted Bellingham police officer Russ Miller, who declined to comment on the case. Although the project already received a grade, Rieck said she will reconstruct the stolen lens. "The biggest problem is that it's a portfolio piece," she said. "I don't have it to show (to) future employers." "All that we're asking is that it's returned," Korthuis said. Conference will address wilderness conservation By Tiffany Campbell THE WESTERN FRONT John Miles, director for the Center of Geography and Environmental Social Sciences at Western, and John McLaughlin^ associate Huxley professor, will speak on wilderness issues at the national Northwest Wilderness Conference 2000 in Seattle March 31 to April 2. The conference will feature speakers from diverse areas of the wilderness issue, including the Sierra Club and the U.S. Forest Service, as well as many other wilderness advocacy groups. "We have in the Northwest one of the largest concentrations of wilderness in the lower 48," Miles said. "The whole concept of wilderness is changing as well. (This conference) will help explore new conceptions of wilderness that are out there. It's important to get together and talk about it. It has implications for national forests and public lands in general." "We're trying to bring new people into the debate on wilderness," Bob Friemark of The Wilderness Society said. "We want to educate people about what's going on in the wilderness movement." The speakers will form panels that deal with issues like roadless area protection and different tactics for wilderness protection. "The wilderness movement is a very diverse movement, with individuals really adopting different strategies of how they want to be engaged and how they want the issues moved forward," Friemark said, adding that these strategies could be anything from sitting in trees to lobbying Congress. "If we had done this process years ago and based our policies on it, we wouldn't be at the salmon crisis we're at now," McLaughlin said. "Hopefully we can learn from our mistakes." The conference is open to all, and package costs range from $85 to $143, depending on meals.

The coming changes will include the construction of a new Campus Services Center, a widening of Bill McDonald up the hill from South College Way, a signalized, curving intersection at 21st Street and a 180- stall parking lot on 21st Street near campus. Construction of the roadway renovations, intersection and parking lot will begin in June and resume as fall quarter begins, said Ed Simpson, Western's Facilities project manager. "We hope to get the bulk of the messy stuff done (this summer)," Simpson said. The Campus Service Center Project is slated to begin in April 2001 and continue through spring 2002. The center will combine the relocation of the Student Health Center, campus police and the Parking and Transportation offices. The facility will sit directly across the completed intersection at Bill McDonald Parkway and 21st Street and will include basement parking for police vehicles and employees, a 30- space parking lot to the right of the complex along 21st Street and a service entrance/pedestrian walkway that will snake around the east side. Mike Smith of Zervas Group Architecture, the prime contracting outfit of the project, said the new structure will greatly increase police service and student health operations. "This will be a new command center on campus," he said. Smith added that it is the university's goal to transform Bill McDonald into a "southern gateway to the campus" by widening its car lanes and adding a five-foot bike path. A strip of native vegetation will replace the existing brush and scattered trees that line this stretch of the parkway, separating the street from a pedestrian walkway that will run alongside the Softball field. The aim, said Michael Durbin, associate project engineer for David Evans and Associates Inc., is to "try and get drivers to slow down and to create more of a sense of a pedestrian and bicycle environment." In addition, an improvement in street lighting will create a safer route for all and give more of an official entrance look to the university, Durbin said. Simpson said Western's targeted budget for the entire project is $7.4 million. The Campus Services Center's projected cost is $5.1 million and the roadway renovations, including the parking lot, will run $2.3 million. Simpson added that the Campus Services Center has been in the planning stage since 1996, and completion of the roadway planning pre-design occurred in July 1998. Happy Valley resident Dunham Gooding mentioned additional reasons for approving the renovations. "By changing the intersection to a curve with stoplights, it will de-emphasize 21st (away from Western) as a through way," he said. "One of the problems our neighborhood suffers is the fact that people transit through the neighborhood to get to the university." Citizens raised concerns at the meeting regarding the project's clearing of trees and wetlands. Durbin addressed these concerns, maintaining that a trail coming down the hill across from the 21st Street intersection will remain intact, and just one small wetland area between the street and the trail exists in the area to be renovated. Simpson stressed that native foliage will be replanted to replace whatever is destroyed in the project and the entire area around Campus Services Center will be fully landscaped. advice and equipment for the outdoors T * H *E G * R Â» E *AÂ»T ISfENTlAlI Y 2 0 1 E.

Margin is a loan, from a stockbroker, to buy stock. Federal law allows investors to borrow up to 50 percent of- the money they will need to huy a stock. If the stock costs $10,000, the investor must have $5,000. The risks of investing on margin are that an investor faces the possibility of having to sell a stock and can end up owing his or her stockbroker money. Margin is better for an investor that is going to receive the money to pay the loan off because he or she doesn't have to rely on the stock as the only collateral for the loan, said Nicholas Kaiser, director and president of Saturna Capital. "You are leveraging your account so that you can own more investment (stock)," Wallace said. Margin trading is like doubling the speed of one's car. While one can get to where he or she is going faster, if he or she crashes, the bodily harm will be twice as much. Investors that bought stock in Ogden Corporation learned how devastating a high-speed crash can be. On Aug. 17, 1999 a margin investor could have bought 100 shares of Ogden Corporation for $25 per share ($2,500). The margin loan would have been $1,250. A month later Ogden gapped down from $19.50 per share to near $14 per share. The margin investor would be required to make a margin call at $16.50. Since Ogden stock was collateral for the loan, and the price was '. dropping rapidly, the investor's stockbroker may have decided to sell Ogden to try to recover the loan. If the stockbroker had sold Ogden at $12 per share the investor would have received $1,200; the money, however, Â§jjr is Silitilipf INN' jj is â€¢mmmMtiwim mfmmsMm 30 25 20 Stock Price Ol O Ol o -* , Ogden's Daily Close â€¢ â€¢ â€¢ â€¢ â€¢ ' â€¢ .

In one month a margin investor would have lost $1,250 and would owe his or her stockbroker $50, for a total loss of $1,300. The investor who didn't buy on margin would have lost $675, because they would have only been able to buy 50 shares with the original $1,250. The percentage loss (54 percent) is the same for each investor, but since the margin investor had twice as much stock they took a larger loss. The margin investor then sells their stock and ended up owing money to their stockbroker. These are the two biggest risks when trading on margin. Advice on sexual, emotional health available at SHAIC resource room By Kasey Halmagyi THE WESTERN FRONT "What herb works best to help boost energy?" "Does my roommate have an eating disorder?" "I can never fall asleep at night; what will help?" Answers to health and wellness questions like these are found at the Student Health and Information Center's resource room. The resource room, located near the back of SHAIC, contains more than 500 books, pamphlets, videos and audio tapes on numerous health related topics. All of this information is available for students to check out, free of charge, for a week. "It's handy for students to have access to books for topics they are writing papers on or for personal use," Catharine Vader, SHAIC coordinator, said. "I've been to Wilson Library, and it doesn't carry a lot of the books we do." The materials in the resource room are organized by topic and have colored stickers indicating what subject they cover. Topics at the center include: emotional and mental health* sexual health, alcohol, tobacco and other drugs, physical health, nutrition, fitness and eating disorders. More specific subcategories of these topics are offered at the center, such as contraception, self-help, body image and depression. "The way it's set up helps people easily find what they're looking for," said Heather Piche, lifestyle advisor at the SHAIC. The resource room also has a television and VCR for viewing videos, a computer for looking at a variety of health and wellness Web sites and a Seasonal Affective Disorder light.

"There are a lot of things that I have to get caught up with as far as the board goes, as well as the student body, so I have to see what the issues are and address them," Bolton said.

Western neighbors want less development, building HAPPY VALLEY, from page 1 Western could not use the abandoned Albertson's grocery store along Old Fairhaven Parkway for a warehouse or offices. "Western will wait until the Happy Valley plan is approved before making any institutional plans," Vice President of Business and Financial Affairs George Pierce said. Western has already, however, unveiled plans to widen and develop 21st Street where it meets Bill McDonald Parkway. According to Fred Wagner, chair of the Planning and Development Commission, a final Happy Valley Neighborhood Plan will not be adopted by Bellingham City Council until sometime next fall or later after the commission has provided its recommendations.

Carrel said he still has number of duplexes, such as Adrik's Place, and apartments such as the New York Apartments, also concerned residents. "People want the amount of apartments to slow â€” not because they're anti-apartments but because the area is changing in negative ways," said Donald Gooding, self-appointed liaison between the neighborhood and the city. Charlsee Sprig recently moved to Happy Valley and enjoys the diversity created by mixing low-income housing with more expensive homes and building new homes next to century- old homes which are next to apartments and small commercial pieces. "I am concerned ... by the acquisition of land to build sleazy student housing," Sprig said. Roy Flueger has lived in Happy Valley most of his 82 years. "We do get a little upset at the students, to put it mildly," Flueger said. "I take my life into my own hands every time I back out of my driveway and onto 21st Street." The rezoning of the Superstore to a larger commercial lot as well as adding commercial space across Harris Avenue drew concern from residents. "I support that little market but it's still just a beer-and-ciga-rettes store," Fleuger said. For the last year-and-a-half, residents have been meeting with city planners at Sehome High School to give their input. "We always hear from our politicians that it's our neighborhood," Survey said.

Staples was originally scheduled to perform her "A Tribute to Mahalia Jackson" concert Feb. 19, but severe snowstorms grounded her flight from Chicago, canceling the show. Only a few tickets remained unsold at show time. "After a nearly sold-out house, it was a great disappointment to find out that Mavis would not perform," Performing Arts Center Series Coordinator Tamara McDonald said. "Yet a gracious and sympathetic crowd filled the PAC anticipating that Mavis would return for a rescheduled date." T h e PAC Box Office staff will contact ticket holders by telephone to ask whether they wish to use their Feb. 19 tickets for the r e s c h e d u l e d March 31 concert or desire a refund. Ticket holders who have not yet been contacted are asked to call the PAC Box Office at (360) 650-6146 to state a preference for the ticket. R e m a i n i n g Photo courtesty of PAC tickets for the Mavis Staples will perform March 31. general public are $18 for adults, $16 for family members of Western students and $12 for students while they last. Tickets for the "student rush" can be bought anytime for $6. Box Office hours are noon to 4 p.m. Mondays and noon to 9 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. The Box Office will close during Western's spring break, March 17-28. Staples' concert, part of Western's Centennial Performing Arts Series' celebration of African American history month, is a tribute to the Queen of Gospel, Mahalia Jackson. "I believe that this concert will jump out for students as well as community members at large," McDonald said. Staples regards Jackson as her mentor, teacher and friend, and had the honor of inducting Jackson into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997. Staples, best known as the lead vocalist for The Staples Singers, had hits such as "I'll Take You There," "Respect Yourself and "Let's Do It Again." The Staples Singers were inducted in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame last year. Throughout her career, Staples has worked with musicians like Prince, Aretha Franklin, Curtis Mayfield, Bob Dylan and Tom Jones. Brendan Shriane THE WESTERN FRONT This band had a hit record once? In England, you say? Interesting. Award-winning Brit band Eels' new record, "Daisies of the Galaxy," is a highly derivative, uninspired effort. Lead singer E leads listeners on a journey to a galaxy that is apparently only populated by people who play organ music that could have been taken directly from the "Austin Powers" soundtrack. 'Eels sort of sound like Beck on hippy folk pills.' "Daisies" is touted as the antidote to 1998's "Electro-shock Blues," an album about the deaths of E's sister and mother. Eels, essentially, are E, also known as Mark Oliver Everett. He does, however, get help on this album from R.E.M.'s Peter Buck and Grant Lee Phillips of Grant Lee Buffalo. Eels sort of sound like Beck on hippy folk pills, championing music best described as "alt-pop." E and the boys make an album that at best could only be viewed as a vacant little diversion. With Buck and Philips assisting, one cannot help but think a lot of talent was wasted here. "During the 'Daisies' sessions I realized that we were making two different kinds of records," E said. "One loud, dark and scary; the other acoustic and positive." He apparently chose to release the latter, but the former might have been a little more interesting. While most of this album is boring and insipid, some Eels songs will invariably make it to the radio and then be played ad nauseam in the mall where girls in too-small Tommy Hilfiger T-shirts will wrestle hippy chicks with Guatemalan handbags and butterfly tattoos at the local Sam Goody for this record. The best of the lot is "Flyswatter." Although the lyrics are quite incomprehensible â€” "Field mice, head lice/spiders in the kitchen/don't think twice about whatever keeps you itching," the song is extremely catchy. In fact, listeners may find themselves humming it days after listening to it. It is, unfortunately, one of the few highlights on an otherwise dull album. "It's a sad song because none of the things in.it really happened," E said. "Daisies" hits malls in March. Order your textbooks online. Try our secure online textbook ordering system.... now faster!

By Monica Bell THE WESTERN FRONT The quality and content of the 12x12x12 Small Works art exhibit can not be decided merely on the size of the art. The mixed media and various artists provide an exhibit whose merit goes way beyond the minute size of the individual pieces. "You can have a small work that has a lot of meaning and a lot of substance without having these giant pieces that sort of lose themselves in their size," said Adam Jackman, information attendant at the Whatcom Museum of History and Art. The 12x12x12 Small Works art exhibit showing in the Viking Union Satellite Gallery at the Whatcom Museum of History and Art utilizes a variety of artists' styles and materials including ceramics, photography, videography, wire work, fabrics and bead work. The works displayed in the exhibit are all from regional art students and had to fit within the size limit of 12 inches by 12 inches by 12 inches. "It seemed extraordinary to me that it was based on the size of what you submitted," said Genevieve Gonska, a graphic design major at Western. "We were looking for a diversity of media, things that fit within the guidelines ... and well-done craftsmanship," said Caroline Knebelsberger, co-coordinator of the VU Gallery and art major. Amber Strawn, the other Gallery co-coordinator said they wanted the pieces not only to be technically good but express an idea or a feeling. As coordinators of the Gallery, Strawn and Knebelsberger decide the themes for the works they wish to display, arrange publicity for the exhibits, balance the budget â€” $8000 per year for at least three shows per quarter â€” talk to the artists and physically hang and arrange the pieces in the exhibits. "A lot of the work that we encourage in shows is student work and this just provides a professional setting for the work to be seen by the public," Knebelsberger said. "It can be really hard for a student to start showing, and it's really important for students to show their artwork to start working on their resume," Strawn said. Gideon Breazeal, a senior art major, has his piece "R. Mutt Cell" displayed as a video in the exhibit. He said this piece deals mainly with a part of the art community where the characters â€” the amoebae symbolizing the collectors and dealers and bacteria representing the artists â€” are more reminiscent of a cartoon than conventional art. "It mainly deals with a section of the art world that views and uses - art as a commodity," Breazeal said. Breazeal achieved the effect of his piece by painting, scanning and manipulating watercolors in a computer to produce the final video, which he said took him about 220 hours to produce. Gonska's piece "Rot" is showing in the Small Works exhibit as well. It displays three seeds in various stages of decay. "I made this because there is something beautiful about inspecting organic things in a controlled way.... I think vagueness can be an asset, and obscurity can be interesting," Gonska said. Maggie Evans, a junior art major at Western, has a piece displayed in the exhibit composed of beads, fabric and a mirror, where the words are reflected back onto the mirror. She said the piece not only followed the requirements of her fibers class but also followed the theme of women having positive feelings and ideas about their sexuality. The premise behind one of two pieces presented by Western senior Sopheay Hun in the exhibit involved her choice to merge her double majors in art and science. She presented a piece entitled "The Microscope Series," which involves 12 prints of colonies similar to what one could find in a lab. "I grew them and cultured them and then took slides of them, and so these are the slides that I took," Hun said. The colonies are not conventional in any sense. They include feathers, safety pins, miniature light bulbs and sub-colonies of America. Admission to the 12x12x12 Small Works exhibit is free. The exhibit shows noon to 5 p.m. March 4 through April 2 "at the Whatcom Museum of History and Art's VU extension gallery. A reception is planned for 5 to 7 p.m. on March 30. Angela Smith / The Western Front Matt Hocker studies a sculpture by Ellen Peterson. by the By Brendan Shriane THE WESTERN FRONT Just when you thought the '90s were over and done with, along comes another take on the decade recently past. Veteran Bellingham actor and "self-described play- Angela Smith/The Western Front Walbeck in an act of shameless self- promotion. wright" Sean Walbeck and his local theater group ANBAHAR â€” Absolutely No Budget And Hardly Any Rehearsals â€” present "A Fistful of Walbeck." It is the accumulation of a decade of Walbeck's satirical insight on the happenings of Western, Bellingham and even a little about the world outside Whatcom County. Walbeck bills it as "a collection of short works almost like folk music but without the lucrative financial possibilities." Walbeck is a self-deprecating man with the acerbic sense of humor of Michael Moore and, when he introduces his tribute to the dramatic bit player, "There Are No Small Actors Company," the booming voice of Orson Welles. On rehearsal day, Walbeck, who describes himself as "too liberal for the times," wears a rumpled gray shirt and a brown and gold clip- on tie hanging from the collar of his shirt. He has put together a 90-minute collection of mostly comedic short pieces ranging in length from the one-line "There Are No Small Actors" renditions of dramatic classics such as the "Oresteia" and "Streetcar Named Desire" to a 15-minute play in which each character's lines consist of one word. Despite the brevity of most of the pieces, themes ranging from the aforementioned one-line plays to "Peaces," a series of interrelated monologues based on Walbeck's experience at a Gulf War protest, hold together Walbeck's sharp writing. The six individual speeches in "Peaces", united by the background of the 1991 protests at the Federal Building in Bellingham, are both funny and touching. They range from a harried teacher who unwittingly starts a riot of 5-year-olds at "The Preschool for Creative Nonviolence" to a traumatized pacifist who says, "I love my father, so I hate cap guns." The other interrelated strings are: "Transitions," which includes a poignant soliloquy on childhood disappointment at the circus, "Red Plaid Stories," a two-parter that includes "Bellingham Herald Homophobes" and a fake movie trailer about book banning and school levies that features an avenging band of banned authors. Why Red Plaid Stories? "Everybody on every side of every issue wears red plaid," he said. "It's not a distinguishing characteristic anymore." And "TAFHeads," a sort of catch-all category named after a brand of animal-headed water faucet covers. "Fistful of Walbeck" is not just short skits. It contains "The Kafka Shop," described by Walbeck as "Lit major comedy," and "Regrouping," the story of a recently divorced man arguing with his cat, a story based on the real-life experiences of one of Walbeck's good friends, a ^science fiction novelist. The best of the stand-alones is the 15-minute-long "Closing Time," a parody of the David Mamet school of "drama of the inarticulate." This play, in which each line is just one word, details the semiliterate communication of three pizza parlor workers who find they must close the restaurant early because they bought tickets for a concert on a night they should be working. "A Fistful of Walbeck" runs at the Seattle Fringe Festival for five performances at Theater Shmeater, tonight through March 18. ---------- Western Front 2000 March 10 - Page 9 ---------- March 10, 2000 Accent The Western Front â€¢ 9 Daniel Peters THE WESTERN FRONT Twist, turn, leap and throw may sound like a great play at second base, but it also applies to modern dance. The Ririe-Woodbury Dance Company won't be playing baseball at 7:30 p.m. Saturday when it brings its innovative choreography to the Performing Arts Center's main stage. "Modern dance is the dance of ideas," Western dance program director Nolan Dennet said. "The idea â€” the choreography â€” is what we serve," he said. Dennet said the traveling company, based in Salt Lake City, invited him to view a regular season performance there. The company takes between eight and 12 weeks out of its season to bring its production to other cities. "Sometimes we go into a community and do one outreach and one performance," company founder Joan Woodbury said, "It depends on the sponsor." This time the sponsor is Dennet, who scheduled class, time for the six company dancers to help teach classes throughout the week including a performance for public middle and high school students. "I told them to fill it up," Dennet said of the PAC. "There will probably be 300 (people)." In addition to teaching classes and performing, the company will include three Western dancers: Andrew Anderson, Sarah Frewen and Kathy Pottratz in "Tensile Involvement" by Alwin Nikolais. The piece includes the use of 'If they've done their training right, they can jump right in and pull it off.' Nolan Dennett Dance program director eight large elastic bands suspended from the ceiling and incorporates Nikolais' signature mechanical movement. The piece is more about physical effects and not emotional depth, Dennet said, explaining how his students would overcome the obstacle of learning the piece by Saturday with only three rehearsals. "If they've done their training right, they can jump right in and pull it off," he said. Emmy Thomson, the company's associate artistic director said the company has amassed a large repertoire of choreographed works to draw from and invites its presenter to create a performance befitting the sponsor's audience. Woodbury and Shirley Ririe brought Thomson in to eventually take over the company. "They've been my teachers for 20 years," Thomson said. Thomson said she danced for five years with the company in the 80s and went on to teach dance in Minnesota until the company eventually asked her to consider taking over. Thomson said the company works hard to bring dance to everyone. "Everyone has a creative well inside them â€” if you can bring that out in a child that is troubled, it makes all the difference," she said. Dance made the difference for second-year company dancer Aaron Draper. He said he chose it and a Spanish major over three years of engineering. "At U.C. Davis (dance) was under physical education," Draper said. "So I probably took 50 dance credits while I was there." Draper said within a year of his first college dance class he was performing. "If you're a male in dance â€” it's like one in 40 â€” whenever they need a male you get that role," he said. "It's something about Bellingham," Dennet said about Western's number of male dancers. "Everywhere else I've taught there has been one guy and when he graduates you're lucky to get a replacement." The company will also perform "Wien" by Pascal Rioult. The piece is "about a society spi-raling into decadence before the holocaust," Thomson said. The dancers perform "Wien" with such intensity they can barely stand for a bow at its conclusion, Thomson said. Tickets for the performance are available at the PAC box office. Prices are $18 for adults and $12 for children and students. gt;an PetersTThe Western Front Christine Hasegawa holds a pose while Juan Carlos Claudio snaps Liberty Valentine's neck during a rehearsal. :WORKS OF THE Bronlea Hawkins/The Western Front Two visitors take a peak at "Spawning Ground." By Bronlea Hawkins THE WESTERN FRONT More than 70 colorful and oddly symmetrical wire sculptures dangle like pinatas from the ceiling of the Arco Exhibition Building. Thin filaments of wire seem to grow from a floor lamp glowing with eerie yellow light. A collection of "eggs" sit atop a round, sandy nest in the middle of the floor. "Un/natural World" brings 15 years of Lanny Bergner's work together in one building. Bergner's exhibit challenges the traditional nature of sculpture in both medium and presentation. Spotlighting his sculptures against the museum's black walls makes each piece seem removed from the rest of the exhibit. The disquieting techno music playing softly in the background adds to a somewhat unsettled atmosphere. In one corner, a series of nine conical, cocoon-shaped objects hangs from the ceiling, just above eye level. One nearly touches the ground; the others stop three feet short. Some are glazed with silicone with tiny, delicately placed needles circling from top to bottom. Another, "Persona III," is decorated with carpet tacks with the points facing outward, resulting in a striking resemblance to a medieval mace. In the middle of the exhibit, large amoeba-like wire sculptures hang at varying levels. Many resemble organisms one might see through a microscope; "Cold Stones," a collection of artificial rocks occupies a back, corner. Some "rocks" are pure white, others a mottled grey. Several flying saucer-like objects hover at chest level, directly behind a nest of eggs called "Spawning Ground." Wires spring like tentacles from from many of the sculptures. Museum visitors often seem unprepared for the strange and surreal nature of the exhibit. Some linger, looking quizzically at each piece, often matching up each sculpture with its name. Others glance quickly around and deciding this kind of art isn't for them, leave hastily. A former art instructor referred Bellingham resident John Hastings to the exhibit. His first reaction was to "take all this in as something weird." Hastings said however, he decided to spend time looking carefully and thinking about the names of the sculptures. His conclusion? "I wondered why he did it." Despite the mixed reactions of some viewers, Whatcom Museum chief curator Scott Walli, said, "Un/natural" World has been breaking attendance records. Attendance in December of 1999 was up 62 percent over the same month in 1998. The show is its own environment, Wallin said, and people are intrigued by it. "We felt that it would be very successful with a wide range of visitors," he said. One sunny Sunday, 170 people viewed the exhibit in five hours. Bergner has appeared in many craft shows around the Bellingham area, where Wallin first saw his work. Bergner states in the exhibits program that his sculptures record "feelings about how I viewed the world around me." He said he is fascinated by transforming common household items into something unusual and "organic in appearance." In addition to more common materials, Bergner also uses silicone and hydrocal. Inspired by the natural world, he said he creates art that "celebrates the wonder of it all." "Un/natural World" runs through March 19 at the Arco Exhibition Building in downtown Bellingam.

Greenen, one of the team's captains, will not let her torn left ACL stop her from playing her last season on the team. It may, however, stop her from playing third base as much and keep her behind home plate as catcher, which is her favorite position anyway. "Last year I played catcher 50 percent of the time and third base 50 percent of the time," Greenen said. "But since I tore my ACL last November, playing third is harder on my knee than playing catcher." Because side-to-side movements are more difficult for Greenen, she anticipates playing catcher most of the time. Greenen said she's nervous about her knee, but it won't stop the team from winning. She is convinced the team will do well, partly because of the team's talent and partly because the players have a close relationship with one another. "We're very close-knit," Greenen said. "There are no big problems, and everyone gets along, which is rare on a larger team." Catcher and third baseman Katie Osmundson, who played with Greenen the past four years, agreed with her. "Every girl is out to help every other girl," Osmundson said. Osmundson said Greenen helps out tremendously and has a concern for her teammates. "Andie is probably my inspiration," Osmundson said. "I look at Andie and watch her play ball, and she inspires me to go out and play 110 percent." Osmundson said she has never heard Greenen complain about anything, especially her knee. "I don't think she's human," Osmundson said. "She's a machine or something." Osmundson said when she heard Greenen tore her ACL she was not surprised Greenen would play this season. "That's just Andie," Osmundson said. "She's a very dedicated player, and I can't see her making any other decision." Greenen's knee doesn't affect her often and most of the time she is lighthearted, Osmundson said. "If I get frustrated in a game, Andie will always crack a joke or RETIREMENT I INSURANCE M U T (J A I F U N 0 5 TRUST SERVICES TUITION FINANCING TIAA-CREF's tax-deferred solutions can help you reach your retirement goals faster.

Osmundson said Greenen never criticizes players for making mistakes and is supportive of everyone, which in turn encourages players to do their best. "She's an intense player, and she makes you play up to her level," Osmundson said. Softball coach Art Phinney said he agrees with Osmundson. "We just can't say enough about her," Phinney said. "She's one of the most explosive players we've seen here." Phinney also said that Greenen inspires players to improve. "She's extremely inspirational," Phinney said. "She motivates with actions and not words and is a strong example of what a player should be." After the season he said he will be sorry to have Greenen leave. "You always miss players when they graduate," Phinney said. "But some players become a little (more deeply) entwined in your heart than others."

Joseph leads Western's base-stealing attack. By Joe Wiederhold THE WESTERN FRONT Being at the other end of Gym D as Western fastpitch Softball team sluggers Sonya Joseph and Stacia Varney hit is like being downrange at a gun club. Varney and Joseph are two of six starters returning from a team that went 33-13 and beat No. 1 Humboldt State University twice. Incoming freshmen make up *for the loss of several standout players to graduation. Co-captain Katie Osmundson has complete confidence in the freshman class. "In the past you always (had) to wait and let the freshman mature," she said. "I think the majority of (our freshmen) are ready talent-wise and mental-wise." "I think these freshmen are gonna step up and do their job and get us to where we need to be this year â€” the playoffs,'' infielder Carlena Herd said. Head coach Art Phinney calls his freshman pitchers "young guns." They are only part of a freshman class that gives this year's team added depth. "We feel like we're deeper," with more talent, than we've ever (had)," Phinney said. "It's going to be numerous different heroes every time we play. There are so many people that have the ability to step up and take charge of the ball game." Several returning players put up amazing numbers last year. Catcher-third baseman Andie Greenen batted .378 with 48 hits, both team-leading and earning second-team all-star honors in the PacWest. Outfielder Joseph added 16 stolen bases to bring her career base-stealing record to 48 in as many attempts. Shortstop and co-captain Darcy Taylor batted .342 with 19 RBIs. Second baseman Coni Posey was also a second-team PacWest all-star, hitting .333 with 18 RBIs. As a freshman, Hope Truitt won a school-record 15 games with an ERA of 1.19 and pitched a nine-inning shutout against Humboldt State. "Looking at her, you wouldn't think she's a pitcher, but she dominates out there," co-captain Joseph said. "I think Hope Truitt has a pivotal role this year being the only pitcher with collegiate experience," Taylor said. Co-captain Greenen said team unity is as strong as her sophomore year when Western won the NAIA National Championship. "Camaraderie is better than it's ever been," center fielder Varney said. Viking women travel to PacWest regional tourney THE WESTERN FRONT Western's women's basketball team enters the PacWest regional tournament in Pomona, Calif. Friday as the No. 2 seed, with a 24-3 record. The Vikings received a bye for Thursday's opening round and will play the winner of the University of Alaska Anchorage Central Washington University game Friday. "The bye is really big," head coach Carmen Dolfo said. "We beat Seattle Pacific in overtime last year. The next day (in a semifinal loss to Montana State- Billings) we ran out of steam in the second half. Getting that bye was a real goal for us." The tournament's winner earns a spot in the Elite. Eight at Pine Bluff, Ark. on March 22, 23 and 25. Other teams in the tournament include MSU-Billings, SPU and Cal Poly Pomona. Western faced all five tournament teams. The Vikings were 9-2 in those games, the only losses coming 74-68 at Cal Poly Pomona and 62-51 at Central. This is Western's third straight appearance in a national tournament. The Vikings reached the NAIA Division I tournament in 1998. Seniors Celeste Hill and Amanda Olsen lead the Vikings in scoring at 16.3 and 13.7 points per game, respectively. Center Lisa Berendsen is shooting a school-record 67 percent from the field (124 of 185). Guard Jodie Kaczor has hit 50 percent of her 3-point shots in the last five games. Sophomore guard broke into starting line-up midseason, never looked back Meghan Pattee THE WESTERN FRONT The majority of Western sophomore guard Jodie Kaczor's time is spent playing basketball. Kaczor's dad was a junior high coach and encouraged her to get involved with basketball at a young age. She began playing with the Amateur Athletic Union's Seattle Magic in sixth grade and continued through her senior year in high school. During this time she also played three years of varsity basketball for Federal Way High School along with three ' Jodie's a very coachable player. She's smart and picks up on things quicker than a lot of people.' Gina Sampson Assistant basketball coach years of varsity soccer and soft-ball. Her junior year she helped her basketball team win the Class 4A state title and earned second-team all-state honors. Her senior year she earned Tacoma News Tribune all-area first team and all-South Piiget Sound League while captain of her team. During her freshman year at Western, Kaczor played in 29 games. . As a sophomore, she is second in all-time 3-point percentage (42.7) and averages nearly six points per game and more than seven in league play. Kaczor chose to play at Western, after receiving an offer from the University of Denver Bronlea Hawkins/The Western Front Jodie Kaczor launches one of her 89 3-point shots this season. Her hot shooting has sparked Western's offense. because of the great program, coach and to be closer to home, she said. "I love the area and I loved playing with Ruthie (Taylor) in high school," Kaczor said. "I thought it would be great to keep playing together." "Playing together (in high school) was a blast," sophomore forward Ruth Taylor said. "We know each other really, really well. We knew (in college) we'd be able to lean on each other. "She's my girl and a leader emotionally," Taylor said. "On the court she is somebody you can look to for that big shot." "What's great about basketball is you get a chance (to) express yourself and go crazy on the court," Kaczor said. "You get to expressâ€žall your emotions." "She's very calming and stable to teammates, which is nice to have on the floor," assistant coach Gina Sampson said. "Jodie's a very coachable player," Sampson added. "She's smart and picks up on things quicker than a lot of people." Kaczor said she wants to win it all this season. "We're doing really well, and we've- figured out what we need to do as a team," she said. "That is, everyone can and does contribute." Kaczor is undecided in her major but is leaning toward business. "It's what my dad wants, so I thought I would give it a try," she said. Eventually she wants to coach basketball starting at the high school level and progress to the college level. "She's great," Sampson said. "She'll be a great coach someday because she knows the game so well."

Gary Locke said the initiative would "abolish affirmative action and hurt real people." Washington state still faces a crisis of diversifying its higher learning institutions within the confines of the relatively new law. These institutions must take the issue of diversity into their own hands by actively preparing younger students for entrance into a college or university. Western's minority students comprised only 13.3 percent, 1,546 people, of the total student population in 1998. Washington voters can't expect the state's schools to level the playing field without actively saving enrollment spots for minority students. The end of affirmative action effectively took away any advantage minorities had in competing with the already-advantaged 88.5-percent white population in Washington. This majority must speak up for the underrepresented, and unless voters overturn 1-200, these freedom fighters must find another means to guarantee equal hiring and enrollment. The solution to the legal blockades of 1-200 lies with outreach programs. It is still very legal to encourage minority students to attend in-state institutions and help them compete with other students for admission. The American Civil Liberties Union recently filed a lawsuit in California, a state that passed similarly phrased Proposition 209, charging that disadvantaged and ethnic minority students whose high schools offer few or no Advanced Placement courses are at a disadvantage in competing with students who can access more AP courses. Only 61 percent of Washington state high schools offer such courses. These courses and other opportunities for college credit such as Running Start in high school indicate academic excellence to college admissions officers. By increasing access to them, students could strive for admission into the college of their choice. Schools also need to encourage students to take these classes to prepare them for college-level academic work. Some in-state colleges and universities send recruiters to state high schools. The University of Washington promotes early outreach, going as far as kindergarten to ensure students motivate themselves to be candidates for college education. Western sends admissions information to all students of color who take the PSAT test and encourages ethnic minority students at Western to participate in the Western Experience Program (returning to their high schools for informal recruitment) and the Vike Admit (calling all newly admitted students to answer any questions). Individually, Western students can and should encourage diversity by participating in these programs and spreading the word. Additionally, Western's newly formed Project Kaleidoscope is working to promote and instill diversity into the curriculum by adding more classes dealing with race and minority issues. This will undoubtedly earn Western a reputation for being an open-minded institution. The presence and influence exhibited by Western's Ethnic Student Center and other Resource and Outreach Programs speaks to a student population that refuses to sit idle and be content with a specialized population. The death of legalized affirmative action in Washington did not and cannot stop diversity.

City council needs to take a stand GP water rates need to be decided locally instead of in state courts^ April Uskoski COMMENTARY The Bellingham City Council made only a weak 5-to-2 vote concerning a referendum of Bellingham's water rates for the Georgia Pacific Corp., leaving many to question the validity and strength of the council. The council passed an ordinance on Dec. 14 amending the Bel-lingham municipal codes relating to the city's water utility. â€¢ The ordinance established a special "industrial" water-use category with a rate close to one-tenth of what all other Bellingham businesses pay. The catch is it applies only to GP. Concerned citizens presented a petition seeking a referendum, or a direct public vote, on the proposed ordinance. The council had to determine whether the referendum petition was qualified to be on the ballot. Instead of making a decision â€” that was in their power â€” the council voted to send it to a superior court judge for the court to determine the validity of the petition. It states in the city's governing body in the Revised Codes of Washington 35.92.010 that the council had the power to establish "classes of water users for the rate purposes." Water rates can be set by the council because it issues the bonds necessary to finance the water system. Why is it then that the council insists on straying from its 'It is the right and responsibility of the of the council to set the water rates ...' direct power and displacing the decision to someone else? Are these the people who Bellingham residents have elected to make legislative decisions for them? Sending the referendum to a judge, who undoubtedly will rule the petition as invalid, relays to the public the work the council has done thus far in establishing water rates is invalid. Why not spare the taxpayers and everyone else any unnecessary litigation and expenses and make a decision â€” take a stand. A number of cases are similar to the council's situation that deal with power concerning a referendum. An example is the case of Haas vs. Pomeroy. Citizens of Pomeroy submitted a petition for a referendum to amend the city's water utility rates. The Washington state Supreme Court said the power to fix utility rates was "vested exclusively in the City's corporate authorities" and denied the referendum be submitted to the voters. It is the right and responsibility of the council to set the water rates, so voters are curious why the council didn't take that right and act on it. The public process used in establishing the ordinance resulted in a fair and legal one. Hesitation and displacement of power are not the keys to this legislative authority, and it is not the obligation of the council to waste the time of taxpayers by making them make the decisions the council should have made in the beginning.

A.S. silent to protect former V.P.s' privacy As a member of the A.S. board of directors, I am responding to the recent Front article regarding our not giving the students information about Morgan Hepfer's resignation. Victor Cox's Community Voice piece, Feb. 29, clarified this was done to protect Hepfer. In any personnel matter, the details are confidential. We will continue to protect his right to privacy,' even if that means forfeiting the right to defend ourselves. Jefri Peters' resignation came as a shock to us. In her letter of resignation, she cites lack of communication as her reason for leaving. She communicated nothing to us, however, before releasing the letter to The Front. In our closed meeting, she revealed other reasons. Again, to protect her right to privacy, I am not free to discuss her issues, except to call them "personal" reasons. Both Hepfer and Peters said for one reason or another they were no longer able to do their jobs.

About 50 people attended theforum, the first of a series co-sponsored by the Faculty Senate and the Associated Students under the general heading "Western As It Enters the 21st Century." The panel consisted of faculty membersHarry Ritter, history; Kenneth Hoover, political science; and Constance Faulkner, Fairhaven, as wellas students Michael Dumas, A.S. Social Issues coordinator, and Erin Middlewood. Before opening thefloor to the comments of the audience, each panel member spent about five minutes summarizingtheir views on the issues. An article called "Free Speech for Campus Bigots?" by John Wiener from theJan. 26 issue of The Nation had been distributed to the panelists as a suggested starting point for thediscussion. The article dealt with the rationale for and against codes which have been instituted at anumber of American universities prohibiting verbal harassment of racial minorities, women, homosexualsand other minorities. One incident discussed in the article was the statement of a student in aUniversity of Michigan classroom discussion in 1989. The student said he considered homosexualityadisease treatable with therapy. Hewascharged in a university disciplinary hearing with violating theschool's harassment code. A district court judge eventually ruled in Sept. 1990 that the university'srules violated the First Photo by Jonathan Burton Panel members for the "Freedom of Speech in theClassroom for Faculty and Students" forum included (from left to right), Harry Ritter, Erin Middlewood,Kenneth Hoover, Michael Dumas and Constance Faulkner. Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. Thearticle drew distinctions between broad and narrow codes which have been adopted by variousuniversities. The broadest codes, such as the one instituted at the University of Michigan, prohibit arelatively wide range of actions; the University of Michigan's prohibited "any behavior, verbal orphysical, that stigmatizes or victimizes an individual on the basis of race, ethnicity, religion, sex,sexual orientation, creed, national orientation, ancestry, age, marital status, handicap or Vietnam-eraveteran $1810$." Codes based on the narrow approach prohibit only the most threat-enmg andinflammatory casesof face-to- face abusive speech, according to the article â€” an attempt to deal withthe concernsofcivilUbertarians. Some scholars contend there is a legal basis for these kinds of rulesunder the "fighting words" doctrine created by the Supreme Court in the l942caseof Chaplinsky v. NewHampshire. The comments of most of those present at the forum indicated that while sensitivity isneeded, freedom of speech considerations outweigh any rationale for instituting such codes at Western.No one actually endorsed any specific reforms which should be enacted by the Associated Students,Faculty Senate or administration. "I believe that the university is an institution for the expansion ofknowledge, and that this is only possible through free discourse," Middlewood said. "Once we validate censorship as a tool... it wjll be used Please see Forum, page 4 Fairhaven program strives fordiversification of legal profession By George Tharalson staff reporter A two year law program designed to get underrepresented groups more involved in the legal system began this year at Fairhaven College.The law and diversity program is aimed at developing the skills and knowledge necessary for law school, targeting students whose ethnic, social or economic community is underrepresented in the legalprofession. Underrepresented groups include ethnic minorities, people from backgrounds of povertyand people who are gay or interested in gay rights, said Rand Jack, faculty member at Fairhaven andone of the leaders of the program. The program got its spark after Washington State Supreme CourtJustice Charles Z. Smith spoke on campus about the lack of ethnic minorities in the legal system,Jack said. Various law schools encouraged Fairhaven to begin with the program. Jack said.Encouragement also came from within. Fairhaven Dean Marie Eaton and Western Provost LarryDeLorme were both very supportive, he added. The program officially kicked off Sept. 21, when JusticeSmith led the first seminar. "Since all of this was his fault, he had to get it started off," Jack saidjokingly. "There is no other program like this we know of," said Lorraine Bannai, Fairhaven facultymember and the other leader of the program. Bannai was hired last spring specifically for this program. "I've taught in the law-school environment for the last 10 years," she said. "We are delighted. She wasthe best of all possible applicants (for this job)," Jack said. The program contributes to the goal ofdiversifying the legal profession, something that really needs to happen, Bannai said. It encouragesparticipation from ethnic minorities and the disadvantaged. It exposes them to the legal profession andequips them with the skills they will need to enter and successfully complete law school, she said. Theprogram is a preparation for law school. It is a junior-senior program. To enroll, students must havecompleted or nearly completed their GURs. The program is law-related and skill-related, Bannai said.Students will receive instruction on the American legal system and the American political system. Theywill be exposed to legal issues relating to minorities. Students will also receive instruction in writingskills, verbal communication skills and analytic skillsâ€”all of which are important to the practice of law.Fifteen students are enrolled in the program, Bannai said. These IS will stay together over the next twoyears. "The students are very committed and energetic, hard-working, they want to achieve goals andwant to be vehicles for social change. They want to go to law school," Bannai said. "(The program) isreally exciting," she said. "It's exciting to be working with undergraduates." Since the program is new,a few things remain up in the air. It is not known yet if a new group will enter the program next year,Bannai said. It will depend on the success of the program and the availability of resources, Jack said."We have no control over resources," Jack said. "We will have to start addressing this question soon." ButBannai said this question does not change the commitment to the IS students currently enrolled.They will be here for the next two years, Bannai said. "That commitment has been made." "We hope(this) can be a model program for other schools to pattern their programs after," Jack said.

Adequate accommodations for the students is a growing concern, and Westernis dealing with the issue and taking steps to recognize and satisfy the needs of those students with awide range of mobility and learning disabilities. Disabled Student Services sponsored a seminarWednesday on this issue, featuring guest speaker Salome Heyward, an attorney advisor onhandicappedstudentservice programs in post-secondary education. Heyward deals with cases involvingthe legal rights and responsibilities of institutions with regard to federal statutes and regulations. Theseminar lasted throughout the course of the day and was attended by many members of the staff andfaculty. Heyward said post-secondary institutions have been losing decisions in cases involvingdisabled students. It has become clear that if a student is qualified to be admitted into a program, they cannot be denied the right of admission without clear evidence the individual will jeopardize theacademic integrity and credibility of the institution's program. However, post-secondary schools arehaving problems justifying their denial in the court system. They decide on defenses like: the student issimply not qualified to be in the program or they will cost the program too much. "If you can't justifyyour own decision, you yourself are injuring the very thing you say you want to protect If you can'tpresent clear-cut reasons why this student can't be accommodated for, then you lose cases. And thatmeans you lose academic freedom and academic integrity," Heyward said. She gave the exampleof the University of Alabama's failure to provide adequate services to its disabled students. Theuniversity had a business education program on the third floor of one of its buildings and had no accessfor disabled students. Consequently, the university would only allow disabled students to participate in the program by having them either take the courses on the first floor which deprived them of participation with the rest of the students, or take the courses on a pass/ fail grading criteria. If the students didnot want this, they were not allowed to enter the program. This case was taken all the way to the U.S. Court of Appeals and the University of Alabama lost every case on the way there. The Rehabilitation Act of 1974 states all disabled individuals have the same right to participation as any non-disabledindividual. The federal government, as Heyward asserts, provides major funding to post-secondaryschools and has set standards under the Rehabilitation Act of 1974 for federal institutions to abide by.The University of Alabamadidn't abide by them and lost in every case. As long as schools cannot provide legitimate reason for their decisions, they will continue to lose cases, Heyward said. Institutions havebeen slow in facing up to the fact that they must be able to justify themselves. Heyward gave three basic responsibilities institutions have neglected, but should follow in order to comply with federalregulations: 1. Do not discriminate on the basis of disability. Treat students equally regardless of theirlimitations and admit them if they are qualified. 2. Provide "meaningful" access to facilities andprograms. 3. Balance all of the rights of students.

Partner in the United Way possibility of jeopardizing the programs efficiency andintegrity, the rights of the non-disabled students, and the rights of the disabled students. A difficultaspect of the issue involves the degree to which a disabled student must be accommodated for. Thepossibility of preferential treatment should not become a part of the controversy. A disabled person isto only be provided with what they need in order to be equal to the rest of the students without being ahindrance to theprogram, Heyward said. However, every post-secondary school must be able to justifyits decisions regarding the disabled. There must be clear reasons for the provision or non-provision ofservices by the institution. "The thing that we have to understand â€” and it's the thing that most post-secondary institutions are having the most difficulty with now â€” is for years we've had admissionstandards and criteria for participating in programs that everyone spoke, and now all of a sudden wefind ourselves in this legal arena where people are saying to you," Why are all these things important toreceive a degree?'...If you want to protect your academic freedom, then you have to begin to come upwith answers to the question 'why,'" she said. The post-secondary schools doing the best job are theones that are the most creative, said Heyward. They are the ones trying to figure out ways of educatingall students. In order to do this, they have evaluated their programs on the basis of what the real purpose of their programs are. They are the ones trying to figure out what skills they are trying to teach andwhether that is hurt by accommodating disabled students. There is a degree to which an institutioncannot accommodate the disabled. Heyward recognized that some institutions have limited resources.

Counselors at the center say the grant will gotowards buying desktop publishing equipment, making the counseling center, a relatively unknown anduntapped resource on campus, evenmore accessible to students. James Orr, counselor and grantadministrator, said he believes the publishing equipment should be fully functional by December andaccessible to the students at that time. The new equipment will provide brochures on topics that affect students both physically and mentally. Hopefully, by providing the brochures and posters, studentswill be able to receive resources and information they might not have received without them. "With thenew equipment we will be able to make flyers, posters, and pamphlets to reach the students," Qrr said."For example, when the school needed the freshmen students to get measles shots last year, we justdidn't have the capabilities to print out any of the brochures," Orr said. "It is important to get informationout to the students." The health and mental wellness of the students are correlated, because manytimes a student will go to Health Services with a problem that is related to a mental problem, or vice-versa. Orr said he is looking for graphic design students interested in doing work study to produce thebrochures. The grant is from the St. Luke's Foundation, a foundation established in 1983 when St.Joseph's Hospital bought St. Luke's Hospital and decided to setup a non-profit foundation to supportWhatcom and Island County health concerns. Western received an estimated $2,000 grant from St.Luke's to help stock the Counseling Center's lending library. Located across from the Counseling Centerin Miller Hall 263, the lending library provides students with books on various mental and healthissues. The Counseling Center staffs five full time counselors and provides free professional counselingto Western students. The counselors provide short term services â€” which Orr refers to as "focus brieftherapy" â€” to help with problems ranging from parents' divorce to problems with social skills. *TheCounseling Center is a well-used service that actually can help empower students," Orr said. Orr said he has seen a rise in the severity of the problems affecting students, but attributes the increase toanational trend. The number of students using the center's services has increased over the last 10 years. In 1981 -82,9 percent of Western students using the Counseling Center's services reported severeproblems. In the past two years, 24 percent of its clients have done so.

"There is no fixother than the attitudes that we all bring into the classroom. There is no legal fix," Hoover said.Managerial and legal considerations define the outer perimeter of the sacred space which the university occupies, he said, "but they do not supply its real governance, or the principle that are at the heart ofthe university. They cannotdo that.

The ultimate irony may be that in straining so far to create an atmosphere conduciveto learning by all persons, something that we all want, we may actually produce a climate of suspicion,involuntary self-censorship, denunciation and even provocation." "What often begins as the celebration of downtrodden group identity and dignity, easily slides into collective narcissism and the celebration of intolerance," he said. A few people also expressed the sentiment that Western should embrace amore critical, multicultural and non-traditional curriculum in the interest of promoting diversity. "By far the majority of the materials that we use in the classroom have been written and/or formulated by elitegroups," Faulkner said. "Their lives, their experiences and their viewpoint...are taken as the norm."

Special Events creates financial woes By Clayton Wright staff reporter When the Village People take the stage tonight in Carver Gym,Associated Students Special Events will try to erase part of the financial hole created by the lowturnout from their first sponsored event. A.S. Special Events Coordinator John Sims said he's alreadyspent $40,000 for fall quarter; a large figure considering he's initially allotted a $30,000 base operatingbudget for the entire school year. "The A.S. Board has supported me for the Village People," Sims said. "They'll underwrite me since I've spent my budget. They trust it will be a good show. If this show doesn'tfly, you can write off the rest of the year." Even though Sims is leery of failure following the fiasco ofthe first show, he assures a top-notch performance tonight. "There'llbe nothing likeit,"Sims said. "It'sthe original Village People, no b.s. They'll really be singing, wearing the same costumes, performingtheir old songs using dancers and other psycho stuff. It'll be totally hilarious." In an all-out effort toupgrade entertainment at Western, Sims went out on a limb to bring the acts students want. Sims saidhe had faith in the student body. He listened, and he booked the acts.But they didn'tcome. In the firstshow, the David Alan Grier and Mark Curry comedy night, A.S. Special Events lost approximately$7,000. Why, you ask? Sims has no clue. "The interview I gave for the Welcome Back issue statedclearly that I needed to sell out my shows," Sims said. "It's crucial because these shows cost more and it's a smaller venue." Hoping to revitalize the success of comedy on campus, Sims took the initiativeand looked to book other comedy acts for the future. Now, however, such shows would be far too great a risk. "It's really too bad this campus isn't getting behind comedy. I don't have enough faith in thisschool, in (the students') ability to support comedy to bring another act here," Sims said. "I can't takethat risk again. I took the risk and I lost my shirt." Sims said he feels confident that when jazz greatBranford Marsalis makes his appearance on campus, the returns will at least equal the costs. "I'm notworried about the students supporting me. They don'tneed to this time," Sims said. "That's the oneshow I got that if the students tell me to go to hell, great. I'll still get my money back. Those who knowhim come, not just from here but from all over. It's a guaranteed sell out." Nevertheless, Sims said hefeels some of his effort has been wasted. "Seeing the shows that I really wanted to bring and the things I was looking toward have failed, it means I have to change my direction and go towards something elseand maybe shrink the venues," Sims said. "Everyone around is saying 'Oh my God, you're putting things in the gym and the P.A.C., you're doing such an excellent job because you're not settling for the (Viking Union Main) lounge.' Now if I have to start pushing things back to the main lounge, I don't want peoplecoming up to me and saying 'Where the hell is the entertainment?' " "I tried. I provided. If they don'tsupport me, they're basically screwing themselves. I'm trying to provide a diverse line-up," Simsconcluded. Sims said he'd like input to help schedule for winter and spring quarter. He can be reached in VU 108. Law and Diversity continued from page 1- is a wonderful opportunity for Western to dealwith the whole issue of diversity on campus and the issue of underrepresentation of minorities in thelegal profession, Jack said. Access to the U.S. legal system points to power, Jack said. Minorities aretraditionally underrepresented in the legal field. According to the Law and Diversity Program brochure, inWashington state â€” as well as nationwide â€” very few judges, interpreters, lawyers or courtemployees are people of color. "To be on par with the majority population, the number of African-American lawyers must double, His-panics triple and Native Americans increase by four times. In half the counties in our state, there are no minority lawyers," according to the brochure. "Access to court isaccess to justice in our legal system. Minorities being underrepresented makes it more difficult forminority communities to exercise their legal rights." "Through programs like this, we encourage minority students and expose them to the opportunity of going to law school," Bannai said. Many minority and underprivileged groups feel they have to be straight-A students, but that's not necessarily true. "Manydon't understand law can be a vehicle for social change. If you come from a minority background, maybe you only see the bad end of the law," she said.'The students seem pretty excited about the possibilities (the program) has opened for them." Each student will have a lawyer as a professional mentor. Inaddition, students must complete a legal internship. The program is open to anyone with a stronginterest in issues of law and diversity. According to the brochure, Fairhaven is particularly "looking forstudents whose ethnic, social or economic community is underrepresented in the legal profession and who have the potential to act as leaders and role models in their community."

You may recall older siblings dressed in disco gear while theylistened to the vibrant melodies of the Village People on their 8-track stereos. Your chance to re-livethese disco memories is here! The Village People willperformtonightat9p.m. inCarver Gym with Feast ofFriends opening the show. The show is a Halloween costume party and tickets are $5. Since theconcert is a costume party, everybody is encouraged to dress in an imaginative costume. The show issponsored by Associated Students Production Special Events. Jonathon Sims, ASP Special EventsCoordinator and Troy Ragsdale, ASP Special Events Assistant Coordinator, have collected a widerange of prizes for the event. The prizes will be given to three winners who wear the best costumes.Sims hopes prizes will "...inspire people to dress coolly." Ragsdale and Sims said prizes include: freepizzas, tickets to a Mama Sundays conceit, breakfast at the Bagelry, cases of Pepsi, "way cool" beersigns and a "totally kick-ass" Up and Up Tavern t-shirt. Sims said he got the Village People here bywriting a letter to them "expressing his interest" in a performance at Western. Their agent responded and Sims put the show together with Ragsdale. Sims said, 'If you don't show up (for the show)Winter Quarter will suck. I need at least 2,000 people there. If we get that many people there, we'll make up all the money we lost at the comedy show." This quarter ASP special events have beenunsuccessful; namely the comedy show earlier this quarter. Sims hopes to get larger acts at Western in the future. The Village People show will be a stepping stone for the future success of ASP events.Village People have a "real following" at Western, Sims said. In the past two years Sims, Ragsdaleand others have performed Village People's "Macho Man" and "Y.M.C.A." at Western Jam. For those of you who have not followed the success of the Village People in the last decade, Sims said they have"...toured in Europe for years and will be in Portland before they perform at Western." As for the historyof Village People, Ed Ward, Geoffrey Stokes and Ken Tucker, authors of "Rock of Ages," said "TheVillage People was a pop concept invented by producer Jacques Morali..." that stunned fans in the disco era. Their hilarious and cheery jingles set to heavy disco beats were a success in the 1970s.Between 1977 and 1979 "In The Navy", "Y.M.C.A." and "Macho Man" were all platinum-selling hits.Ward, S tokes and Tucker said the Village People is a disco group that Â«crgt; $2.00 PITCHERS (60oz.)

What more could possibly be said for acomedy team that has lasted more than 30 years? The Smothers Brothers will be appearing at 8 p.m.Oct. 26 at the Mount Baker Theatre for one show only. The Smothers Brothers had their own comedyshow, "The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour," which ran from 1967 to 1969. Through their classic gagssuch as the Yo-Yo Man, "take it Tom" and Michael Row the Boat Ashore, the Smothers Brothers foundtheir way into the hearts of many Americans. The Smothers Brothers sing folk songs, with Tom playingthe guitar and Dick on bass, that are constantly interrupted with Tom's antics. Tom plays the slow-witted brother who goes "emotionally vague" at some of the most inopportune moments. Meanwhile, hisbrother Dick is constantly trying to get Tom to grow up and actually put on a mature show. "Youhaven't done one adult, responsible thing on this stage since you arrived," Dick said at aperformance covered by the Calgary Herald on June 6,1989. "Yes, I have. In fact right now I'm wearinga condom," Tom replied. The Yo-Yo Man is also part of the Smothers popularity. Tom performs yo-yotricks while Dick narrates. Tom doesn't talk when he is in the "state of Yo" because as he explains,when he's in a state of Yo he is too hip to verbalize anything. Their show was canceled at the end of the1969 season because of disputes that some of the material that they wanted to use was toocontroversial. Political tensions and the Vietnam War were situations that the Smothers had to fightto talk about on television. The cancellation came as a shock to the writers and performers becausethey were still in the top ratings. The Smothers went on to other things, like starting their own winery,and did another show in 1975. However, they felt they were only being hired to play the part of theSmothers Brothers with no artistic input so they took a break for the next five years. In the early 1980s,the Smothers reformed their comedy team and began working the comedy circuits again. A 20-yearreunion show in 1988 brought together many of the people who worked on the Smothers Brothers showin the '60s. Steve Martin made an appearance as one of the, now successful writers and performers,that got their start on the Smothers Brothers show. The Smothers Brothers have won many awards andwere honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1989. Tickets areonsaleatMountBakerTheatre Center, 104 N. Commercial for $25 or $22.50 for upper balcony seats. No discounts are availableand tickets are selling quickly. For more information or tickets call 734-7200. Summer Stock's Quiltersrevived for another sold-out season By Karl Jensen copy editor Quilters, Western's most successfulSummer Stock '91 production, was carried over for a second run this quarter because of theoverwhelming public response. Tickets for each performance during both the summer and fall seasonswere sold out weeks prior to opening night. Quilters' fall performances officially began Thursday and runs through Sunday. Lines are expected for each show in the off chance that no-show tickets may becomeavailable. "It's very gratifying to have something that people look forward to and seek tickets for early,"Theater Arts Chairman Doug Vander Yacht said. Because of the staggering public response to Quilters,Vander Yacht held 50 seats for each performance exclusively for students until Oct 14. After that datethe tickets were made available to the public. "We're seeking all kinds of ways to bring more studentsinto the mix of an audience we have," Vander Yacht said. Approximately 30-40 percent of the averageWestern theater audience is students, he said. Quilters is a historical musical-drama, based on the reallife experiences of pioneer women in the American Southwest It evokes emotional and striking images,although it may be hard to imagine that a "musical" could do so. The setting is simple, as is the music.Yet, on the whole, both are very effective and necessary. "I think that the actors were able to bring asense of portrayal â€” not a cartoonish or caricature of the people that tried to bring some real humanfeeling and life to those moments within the play that, I thinkmakes the play go well, "Director Ruben VanKempen, of Seattle, said. Quilters is definitely an actor's and director's play. With over 90 separateroles, the all female cast bounces from children to grandparents, from male to female impressively andrather realistically. The staging and directing choices made by Van Kempen were both natural andintricate. His ability to blend the jump-cuts into different characters with the predominant characteridentities is impressive, as is the flexibility of the actors. "I'd seen Quilters once before and I 'd loved it. Ithought it would be just a real big director's challenge â€” which it really was," Van Kempen said. Thehighlight of the production is the stunning acting throughout the cast. The seven member female ensemble draws the audience into the play with incredibly moving dialogue and stirring pain and passion. "At firstit seems like you're distant from this â€” very distant â€” but then at the end you find that you're notdistant from it at all, but a part of it It's very moving," audience member and Environmental StudiesProfessor Richard Mayor said. It does require a bit of conditioning to begin to enjoy the play, however.The surreal music and dancing struck me, at first, as a tad off-center. Yet, by the conclusion, I was notonly entertained, but enthralled. IBM PS/2 Collegiate Tour Join us.. Fun, food, and freebies. All on IBM.

Even the most civilized shopper's eyes glaze over and palms moisten,when confronted with an enticing array of unnecessary plastic objects. Here in Bellingham, many haveopted to shun the glitz and glamour of Bellis Fair for the down and dirty world of thrift shopping (orthrifting, as it is lovingly referred to by its devotees.) From the grand scale of Value Village, on the northside, to the claustrophobic intimacy of thedown-stairs collection at Pace New and Used, Bellingham'smany thriftshops offer bargain shoppers a dizzying selection of perfectly good stuff. Value Village is byfar the largest of the local thrift shops. Its size would probably qualify it as the only "thrift emporium" intown. Racks of used apparel stretch for 10s of yards from Value Village's spacious entry, topped-by-glass shelves covered with a mingling of fashion accessories and household items. Men to the right,women to the left and kids in the center, the Village earns its title as a "value department store." ButValue Village isn't without its detractors. A Bellingham woman who asked to be referred to as JoyceTaylor, (her family still thinks she shops at the Bon), appraised Value Village with mixed feelings."Overall, Value Village is the best for furniture, but they're by far the most expensive for clothing," Taylorsaid. Taylor, a self-confessed thrifting addict, says that she frequents the local thrift shops every week.And while that may seem obsessive, the frequency of her thrift shop visits Lyn Allen tries on a second-hand hat at The Mad Hatter. may be a key to her success as a "thrifter." The Salvation Army ThriftShop, Taylor's favorite bargain source, has become a battleground in the "thrifting" war. "You have to hitthe place frequently, because all of the dealers are always there getting the best stuff," Taylor said.The dealers Taylor refers to are the owners of private thrift shops who stock their stores with vintageitems purchased from the bigger non-profit stores, in addition to items found at garage and estate sales. The rise in popularity of vintage goods has made the market for recycled stuff much more competitivethan it's been in the past, and forces the thrift shopper to approach bargaining in an analytical manner.Often, to find those treasures that disappear so quickly in the cosmopolitan Bellinghammarketplace, shoppers must look elsewhere for bargains. "I often go down to the Mt. Vemon SalvationArmy Store,"Tay-lor said. "They're not as aware of vintage values in ML Vernon." To illustrate her point,Taylor mentioned that the Bellingham store had created a vintage comer, a feature unlikely to appear ina less vintage-conscious area. So, what is hot these days? Stephen Stimson, the owner of Lone Wolf,a memorabilia shop next to the Whatcom Museum, says that the big sellers today are leftover toys ofthe baby boomers. "I like the '50s and '60s kind of stuff â€” the things I remember from my childhood,"Stimson said. Lone Wolf's shelves reflect Stimson's passion for the things of the innocent '60s.Strangely, what should be comforting in its familiarity ends up grotesque in the Lone Wolf setting. Theatmosphere is like David Lynch's playpen. No offense, Stephen. The love affair with recycledmerchandise in Bellingham has fostered a sizeable circuit of thrift and vintage stores locally. Taylor,like many bargain hunters, has her favorites. Along with the Salvation Army, Taylor has taken a shineto Y's Buys on Holly Street. Despite the relatively small size of the shop, Taylor notes that she's found a number of treasures there. "They're inexpensive...and the women who work there are so sweet," Photoby Jonathon Burton Taylor said. Another of Taylor's favorites is the Mad Hatter, a downtown vintageclothing store. Taylor stresses the distinction between thrift store and vintage clothing store. "At thriftstores, you really have to scrutinize the clothing. At vintage clothing stores like the Mad Hatter, all themerchandise is pre-washed or dry cleaned," Taylor said. "And generally, the clothing is of much betterquality." It's a strange and wonderful world that lies behind the doors of the thrift shop. Cheap, cheerfuland full of neat stuff â€” it's worth a peek. By the way, does anyone need a Vegr-_aa-_mÂ«naattiirc*?7Used items - a cheap alternative for college budgets By Laura King staff reporter Antique stores havetheir own mystical quality, because once you enter the store, you enter a room full of other peoples'memories. These stores are packed with items that have been previously used and now are being resoldfor someone else to use. These stores carry furniture, knickknacks, jewelry, books, almost anything youfeel the urge to buy. With some good luck you can find some real treasures. Bargain hunting reallybecomes a factor for a good antique store hound. In Bellingham, you can find a majority of the antiquestores close to campus on Holly Street. These antique shops range in price from inexpensive toexpensive, depending on the item. The stores are in walking distance of each other and offer a wide range of items. One of the first shops that you'll come across going west on Holly Streetis Aladdin's AntiqueMall and Espresso Bar. Aladdin's carries an unusual array of odds and ends. Employee Walter Robinson said, "Our store has about 20 different dealers with different specialities, giving us a diversified inventory." The store also has an extra bonus because it sells Tony's coffee and espresso for those shoppers thatneed an extra push of caffeine while they shop. The store does carry rare collectibles for the moreserious antique shopper along with the inexpensive useful stuff for college students on a limited budget.Further down Holly Street, you find the higher concentration of antique stores. Starting with theBellingham Antique Mall which carries items for the more serious shopper with more serious money tospend. This store carries the more expensive items, so it may not be the store for those who are lookingfor a thrifty purchase. As you head further west down Holly, you will see quite a few small stores, eachwith their own personal touch and charm. One of these stores is Bristol Antiques. Bristol Antiques hasbeen open for 20 years and is run by Estella Gelder. Gelder's husband formerly taught at FairhavenCollege as a math teacher. Gelder's speciality is reference books on antiques, but she sells everythingfrom furniture to glass china. Her store targets the more serious collectors, because most of her business is repeat business from antique dealers. "I'm very moderately priced because a lot of my sales goes todealers and they only buy things that are cheap to resell," Gelder said. Despite Gelder's steady influx ofbusiness from dealers, she did recall a college student that had come in the week before. The girl hadcome to Bristol's because she had needed a coffee mug to put her hot chocolate in and she knew thatshe would be able to find an inexpensive mug at Gelder's store. Bellingham Bay Collectibles is anotherstore on Holly that carries such items as clothing, books and jewelry for relatively low prices. This storeis full of good bargains for the shopper that is willing to take the time and effort to look for them. Cyrano'sis a small store with furniture, such as tables and chairs and a wide selection of collectibles to choosefrom. "We're very moderately priced because our items are second hand. This means that we have to becheaper than anywhere else," employee Frances Farnsworth said. Next to Cyrano's is an antique storecalled the Pink Flamingo. This store is crammed with goodies for the thrifty shopper. It has furniture andknickknacks galore. The store also comes equipped with two cats that greet the customers as theyarrive. Pace's, a little further down the street, carries new and used furniture and a wide range of tools.The store is a little more on the expensive end of the price range. This is just a list of a few of the antiquestores in Bellingham. These stores can save you a bundle and their fun to explore. That's one of the bestpart of antique stores, you never know what you '11 find. Antique stores are the perfect place for a college student to pick up items that are in good shape and that don't cost an arm and a leg. So some daywhen your looking for that perfect desk, plate, bookshelf, mug. Instead of running down to the mall, whynot take the time to check an antique shop. It just might be worth .your while after all. What do you haveto lose? Hey, who knows, you just might find a perfect bargain!

But this isnotjustarecent trend, however, asBellingham has been involved inthe used record business since 1972. Buying and trading used records, tapes and CDs has been themajor economic staple of business for the last 20 years at Cellophane Square, 115 E. Magnolia St."We've only been doing new products for the last 10 years," said Chris Conner of Cellophane. The main market used to be in the trading of old records, but that is no longer the case. "Records themselves have fallen off lately. People are not buying them as much as they used to," Conner said. "(Records) are stilla good business, but not what it once was. Tapes and CDs are where it's at." Cellophane Square movedto its current downtown location about two and a half years ago, a move which has done nothing butincrease business, as the traffic flow of the area is much greater than the store's former northsidelocation. "Its a good business. (There are) four stores that buy CDs within four blocks of here. There's adefinite market (here)," Conner said. Conner said the three Western Washington area Cellophane Square stores are doing so well, the owners are planning to build a fourth store sometime soon. He said theBellingham Cellophane store has been "stockpiling tapes and CDs for months" in anticipation of thegrand opening of the new store. Cellophane has simple rules for buying and selling. You need to be 18years of age and must have a valid driver's license. The only thing which fluctuates is the value given onyour trade-in. How much it is worth to Cellophane depends solely on what it is you are bringing in. "If you bring in Milli Vanilli, you'll probably only get a quarter, because we have a ton of them. But if you bringin the new Guns N' Roses, you'll obviously get a lot more," Conner said. He also said the value for cashsales is about 20 percent lower than straight trade-in exchanges. Cellophane will buy or trade for anyCDs, tapes, or records that are in good condition, even those purchased through record clubs atdiscount prices. "Some stores don't buy them (record club items), but we do," Conner said. "There isno legal distinction (between record club and non-record club items). Conner said most stores will nottake record club items for trade because they are uneasy about the material the items might be made of. He said the main concern occurred when record clubs would mass produce albums by using cheapvinyl, but he said record club tapes and CDs are now made with the same quality materials as storebought tapes and CDs. To those looking to trade in their old music, Conner offers this advice: "Clean thedirt and stuff off your records and CDs before coming down here, because we don't have the time toclean them and if they are dirty, you will sometimes get less money (for your trade)." Cellophane Squarehas two coupons in Western's Big Blue Bonus Book, which are good for discounted purchases of usedCDs, records, or tapes. Both coupons expire at the end of this month, and neither may be used towardssale items or other discounts Photo by Steven Kennedy Cellophane Square employee, Ken Wick,organizes the records In the store.

The exhibit, "100 True Stories. Pleas and Thank Yous," is the effort of 60Seattle artists â€” a group impressive both in its size and expressed talent. The all-women groupproduced 100 paintings for this show, each on the same size sheet of tin. The two lines of flat, frameless paintings on three walls of the gallery look stark and incomplete from a distance: small rectangles ofcolor lined up uniformly on the white walls. As you get closer, however, you realize the impact of these paintings is revealed in a very expressive and intimate way. Once close enough, you 're drawn in by the magnitude of genius that can be expressed on such a small scale. Walking down the line of paintings,tacked modestly to the wall with pushpins, you become overwhelmed as each tiny piece of metal tellsits own very personal, very powerful story. Sarah Clark-Langager, the gallery director, saidcollaborations such as this one are a continuing theme in contemporary art "A collaborative work likethis is sort of like building a quilt," Clark-Langager said. "What (the artists) are saying is if you take away one of the artists, you're taking away an importantcontribution to the entire work." Traditional LatinAmerican images are used by some of the artists in "100 True Stories;" bright red hearts (the kindseen more in anatomy books than on Valentines) and stylized skeletons in some of the paintings invoke traditional sacred and secular Mexican images. Some artists use traditional techniques such asimprinting the tin with designs or spelling out words. The artists also make full use of the votivepainting tradition of combining text and images. The use of tin is itself a traditional element of votivepaintings. Clark-Langager said votive paintings are usually very expressive works. "It's a type ofexpression which traditionally displays a reference to an icon â€” some sort of religious figure," Clark-Langager said. She added that the works by the Seattle artists were not necessarily limited to anyspecific subject, religious or otherwise. Mostly, she said, the artists have reinterpreted the votivepaintingstyle with their own voices. Gene Gentry McMahon, one of the original eight who organized thecollaboration, has several pieces in the exhibit. Her essay describing her work reveals the very personalnature of this show. "My pieces are an affirmation of life," McMahon wrote, "made in both lightheartedremembrance of fleeting magic episodes, and in profound gratitude for peace following loss, and for joyfollowing sorrow." One of McMahon's works has a heart-shaped cut-out in the middle of the sheet of tin.A painted portrait â€” a tiny memorial bust â€” hangs by a red ribbon from the top of the heart.Embossed crudely above the heart is the word "Recuerdos," the Spanish word for remembrance. Manyof the artists wrote short explanations of their work. The collection of essays â€” the only writteninformation offered â€” is collected in a notebook and not posted near the paintings themselves. Some 100 True Stories. Pleas and Thank yous is on display at the Western Gallery through Nov. 2. artistschose not to add any verbal explanations; without titles or specific explanations, the flat, notebook-paper- size paintings are forced to speak on their own. The exhibit is one in a series of shows at theWestern Gallery focusing on the art and culture of Chicanos or Latin Americans. "100 True Stories"will be followed by a show featuring 11 Los Angeles artists beginning Nov. 11. Gallery hours are 10a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday.

Dalton's and Waldenbooks? Then one of Bellingham's several used bookstoresmay be just the place for you. Whether your tastes run to Harlequin romances or Henry Miller, EastAsian folklore or biographies of Winston Churchill, chances are you '11 find what you're looking for in atleast one of these stores' eclectic collections of newer and out-of-print books. Arguably the Mecca ofBellingham's used bookstores is Michael's Books, 109 Grand Ave. For sheer shelf space and browsingroom, Michael's reigns supreme, offering over 100,000 used books. The atmosphere is cozy andcollegiate, and the overall selection is exhaustive. Here the intrepid bookshopper can while away manyan hour searching for whatever tickles his or her fancy, without being pestered by any nosy staff.Michael's boasts an impressive array of books on numerous subjects. Of particular note are the store'sscience fiction/fantasy and mystery sections, which take up a great deal of shelf space. Michael'sclassics room is also generously stocked. Like most used bookstores, Michael's pays cash or givescredit (for use only in their store) for books brought in for exchange. You can usually get a quarter to athird of a book's original cover price, depending on the condition, quality and rarity of the book. (Note:Michael's is fairly picky and won't take a title if it has a number of them already in stock.) Michael's isalso a good place to go if you're looking for inexpensive older editions or versions of certain textbooks.And, joy of joys, they even offer a 10 percent student discount if you show them your University Clubcard. As good as it is, however, Michael's is not perfect So many of their fiction hardbacks are set onhigh or top shelves that you must either constantly climb, descend, shove along, and climb again one oftheir foot-stools or suffer the consequences of a stiff neck from craning your head upward for too long ofa time. Also, their prices are on the high side for used books. (Good thing about that discount, huh?)Across the street from Michael's is its formidable rival, Henderson's Books. Although it is slightly smaller and usually less busy than its higher-profile neighbor, Henderson's carries just as large and diverse aselection (including many new books at reasonable prices), and (unlike Michael's) the books here arealways in good, often mint, condition. In many cases, Henderson's selection of tides ranks as themost complete in town. The atmosphere is a shade less convivial, butmany gems await the patientcollector, as well as the only- partially-interested browser. Henderson's, too, deals in used textbooksand pays cash for your books, but they are even more picky than Michael's as to what they will andwon't take. Prices are generally equivalent to Michael's, but reasonable, considering their books'areoften in pristine condition. Alas, Henderson's doesn'toffer any student discounts. Even thoughcomparisons be-tweenMichael's and Henderson's are unavoidable (and endless) due to their closeproximity and size, the best policy is to view them as complements of each other. Often, if one doesn'thave the particular title you're looking for, the other will. Besides the Big Two, other used bookstorescan be found scattered throughout the area. Fairhaven's Eclipse Books, 915 Harris Ave., offers amodest, but valuable selection of fiction and reference works in a small but sunny, well-lit andcharming store â€” definitely worth a look. Blackberry Books is currently closing its shop on CornwallAvenue, but its other branch is still open, although it's a bit out of the way on Cedarwood, offNorthwest. Though it now seems but a shade of its once respectable self, Blackberry's still rewards theoccasional visit with an exciting new find. Other paperback collections can be found in Bellingham BayCollectibles and the Granary. The latter is more noteworthy for its small, but fine Georgian library ofantique books than its random sampling of paperbacks, both of which are surrounded by numerousantique paintings and pieces of furniture. So remember, there is something for everyone in Bellingham'sused bookstores. You might not find many current best-sellers, but it's more than likely you'll go homewith a good read in your hands and without a big hole in your pocketbook.

CN ---------- Western Front - 1991 October 25 - Page 12 ---------- 12 The Western Front ACCENT October 25,1991 Live From the Pulpit By Dave Lambert suede columnist Ursus horribilis. Grizzly Bear. I think it got a bad rap with a scientific name like that. It sounds more like a bacteria that causes bad breath than an omnivorous mammal on the endangered species list. Notonly that, it is probably the most feared animal in North America due largely to bad press. From 1900 to 1985, grizzly bears were responsible for fewer than 200 injuries and fatalities. This is a relatively small number compared to the amount of human induced violence that takes place on any given day in thecrowded phallus city of New York. Hell, I would even wager that more than 200 police brutality suits arewon annually. On the other hand, over 77 grizzlies were killed in the Canadian province of Albertaalone from 1979 to 1988. These bears are being slaughtered outside the boundaries of provincial andnational parks by hunters and ranchers largely because Canada has no Endangered Species Act.According to bear biologists, grizzlies are leaving these parks because of increased pressuresresulting from petroleum and natural gas drilling. You see, for every drilling site, the Canadiangovernment builds approximately two-miles of road. Bears do not feel comfortable with roads. They split.Then they are gunned downby someone whosebrain is being starved of oxygen because of tightsuspenders. So why does Canada drill inside of their parks? That's the tough one. Because you and Ileave our friggin' lights on and drive automobiles the size of whales, that's why. We import about half ofCanada's natural gas and petroleum resources. But wait, the causal chain continues... Grizzlies don'tadorn themselves with tattoos of the American flag. They, unlike donkeys and elephants, are truly non-partisan, despite what California thinks. Unfortunately, many of the bears in Glacier National Park andthe surrounding National Forest lands in Montana are able to cross the narrow treelessswath markingthe border between us and Canada. Come to think of it, they probably don't even get strip searched bysmiling border officials. In fact, male grizzlies have a range of up to 4000 square kilometers in a givenyear, making it quite possible for one to travel from the southern most part of Glacier, well into thedanger zone of Alberta. This case is indicative that ecosystems, like bears, do not stop at borders. Butit seems that our culture values rarity: be it in art or cars, stamps or jewelry. Our economy is based on gold- araremetal. Our senate is based on ethics, rarely. And our aloneness, which we value greatly, is a rareness. Moreover, we associate rarity with a sort of reverence. Such reverence for the grizzly ismanifest in Gummi bears, Care bears, Teddy bears, and even the Chicago bears. We are content with the image of the ever elusive grizzly upon post cards and phone books. It is our way of comprehending something that we do not understand. But these images are merely surrogates for some realnesson all fours, feeding on elk. They are like urban landscapes sufficing for wilderness. Indeed, we havereached a point at which the image is in conflict with the beast. In the midst of our consumptive drivefor the image, we are losing sight of its source. And its source is disappearing justlike the light that weleft on in the bathroom this morning, making us both look more and more like dodos. Shanghai stringquartet brings warmth and feeling to PAC By Beth Matthews staff reporter Western's Performing ArtsCenter (PAC) welcomes the internationally celebrated Shanghai String Quartet at 8 p.m. Monday,Oct. 28. Originally forming in China in 1983, the Shanghai String Quartet has established an astonishing reputation as one of the leading chamber ensembles in the United States.

In thepast they've held residence at the Tanglewood and Ravinia Festivals and the Julliard school. The Quartethas also appeared on the "Great Performers" Series at Alice Tully Hall, Lincoln Center's Mostly MozartFestival and at New York's 92 StreetY. The New York Times has awarded the Shanghai String Quartetas being,"... among the finest young foursome of the day." Other reputable critiques have also praisedthe Quartet's ability to weave fire and emotion into their music. "These musicians play with warmth andintense feeling, yet with such clarity and dead-center intonation that you can hear every note andsavor every combination of tone and texture. ...The performance went from strength to strength,"â€”Richmond Times-Dispatch.

For many students it's one or the other. For juniors Mike Dunford and Mike Wagner it had to be both, and Western provided the perfect atmosphere to accomplish just that. ForDunford and Wagner, former classmates at St. Monica's High School outside of Los Angeles, the perfect college was one where they Photo by Steven Kennedy Betty Haskell christens the Jimmy H with somelake water. She and F. Murray "fled" Haskell donated $10,000 to Western, $7,000 of which was used topurchase the four-oared racing shell. "Red" Haskell is the Chief Executive officer of the HaskellCorporation, and rowed for two years at the University of Washington in the 1940s. In addition, "Red"Haskell donated $10,000 in 1969 which paid for Western's first shells, and made the crew programpossible. The Jimmy H. is named after his late son. Mike Wagner would have an opportunity to playfootball while maintaining academics. Western turned out to be that school. "There's a lot of emphasis on academics, which is important," Dunford said. "One of the first things Coach (Rob) Smith said to uswhen we got here is that you're a student-athlete, and in that order." "I wanted to play football and getan education," Wagner continued. "At big schools they care if you're eligible. Here they care if you getyour degree. Everything Western offered was right; education, football, location." It wasn't until aformer high school coach made the move to Western that Dunford and Wagner considered theuniversity as an option. Andre Patterson, referred to as Coach P. by Dunford and Wagner, originallycoached at Renton High School with Smith. Patterson then took the head coaching job at St. Monica'sduring their junior year. "Me and Mike got real close to Coach P. for various reasons," Wagner said. "Hestuck his neck out for us, he really did. If anything went wrong at school, me and Mike were in the office. Coach P. kept us on track." "Coach P. was a player's coach and a coach's coach. He knew how torelate to players," Dunford added. Patterson left St. Monica's after one year and moved on to WeberState University. Smith, who then got the head job at Western, contacted Patterson who agreed to come and coach at Western. It was at that time, after receiving letters from Patterson, Dunford and Wagner learned about Western. But it took a serious meeting between the two to arrive at the decision to attend Western. "We got kicked outta class together," Wagner said. "We had a business class in highschool our senior year and got tossed out for throwin' eraser bits. We just went out and started talkin'about where we wanted to go to college." For Wagner, Western wasn't the only option. "My junior year I thought I'd end up going to a junior college, but my senior year, colleges started getting in touch withme," Wagner said. "Some Division I schools talked to me, but they were leery because of my size." "Alot of coaches told me that when you get into college, football becomes a business," Wagnercontinued. "At least now we're havin' fun. I enjoy the team I'm on and I enjoy being here." Eventhoughbothlike the school, the distance from home, friends and family often occupies their thoughts. "Itwears and tears," Wagner New marketing scheme for athletics to draw fans By Rob Gwinn staff reporter Every team player should know their role. The new director of marketing and promotions for Vikingathletics, Kevin Bryant, knows exactly what his role is. "My job is to get the word out and get thecommunity involved in our (sports) programs," Bryant said. "(We) want to do different things to attractmore people to the games." Bryant, a former men's assistant basketball coach at Western, hascommitted himself full-time to the marketing and promoting of Western's athletics. His objectives areclear-cut: Put people in the seats and raise money for the Athletic de-partment and its programs. Withthe restructuring of Western's budget, certain departments will be asked to fully utilize their abilitiesto raise additional funds for their programs. The ones who are able raise the most money outside theUniversity will have their budgets cut back the most. "(For example), the biology department doesnot have the ability to make outside dollars, (unlike) the athletic department, the Performing Artsdepartment, and the Housing and Dining department," Bryant said. The Marketing and Promotionsdepartment has already launched an aggressive marketing campaign aimed at local business support ofViking athletic programs, with another aimed at filling the stands. "The key is making (every game) anevent," Bryant said. He understands the need for his marketing programs to succeed, as 40 percent ofthe Athletic Department's budget coming directly off of gate receipts and marketing. Bryant also said 30percent of the department's budget comes from student fees, with the final 30 percent from state funds.Already Bryant has his marketing efforts succeeding. This season every home football game has had atheme, such as Senior Citizens Night, the Homecoming Game and the final home game was billed asParent's Day, with all of the games having pleasing attendance figures. There is also this year's halftimefield goal-kicking contest, with the winner of the finals receiving a trip for two to Reno, Nev. Bryant hopesto continue the "event theme" success into the men's and women's basketball season. "The(basketball) games will be much more enjoyable than in the past," he said. "The bottom line is to getpeople in the seats." Bryant plans to have various local businesses sponsor a halftime three-pointshooting contest, and expects to see a more exciting cheerleading squad, who will be doing morecheering and less dancing. The dancing may be handled by Bryant's bringing back the popular dancegroups that performed at various games last year. Bryant has also been talking with the AssociatedStudents Special Events department about several ideas for increasing the basketball attendance.Although no details have been worked out, Bryant discussed the possibilities of a reduced admission toa post-game event with a game ticket, withtheevents being anywhere from a comic performance toJumbalassy, for example. Bryant is also working with TCI Cablevision in an attempt to bring a WesternGame of the Week to local television. TCI is currently showing Viking Sports Talk, a half-hour showhosted by Bryant, along with head men's basketball coach Brad Jackson, from5:30 to6p.m. everyTuesday evening on TCI Channel 10. said. "I hated leavin' my mom 'cause she's my sweetheart" "It'stough going away from home," Dunford continued. "There's no one to tie your shoes, you gotta take onall new responsibility." "There's times whenl just warma say forget it, pack up and go home. Primarilybecause we're far from home, but sometimes I just get tired of the grind," Wagner added. Regardless,both admit to culture shock after coming to Bellingham, but neither regret coming. However, homeis home and Mike Dunford both plan to return to Los Angeles after college. Dunford described thedifferences between Bellingham and Los Angeles like this: "It's like you can take a boy outta the city,but you can't take the city outta the boy â€” It's stuck. For example, if it was a car, in L.A. 65 (mph)would be the fast life. Then I pull into Bellingham, I gotta slam shift into second, grind my gears, twisteverything up and go about 30. It ain't bad, it just takes a little getting use to," Dunford concluded.Excercise your right to vote Briefs Compiled by Sports Information Office Shane^ VoDanann and Kris)Utde^e|i^ :'m^;:'andgt;:if^Bl^:^J^tes.'bf the Vott^arafc ^safety andplace kiclcer, blocked a fieldL goal anda PjVrmtheVikmg^ J^getSlt;^di^ ^ n national^ had remrnsof 83 and 50 yards to raisehis average to36.8 yardsiper return.;': 'â€¢:y^Mm^;':;0: Little; a isoph^hiore setter, was named to the afl-to^ tearri atithe IP^get Sotmd Jnvijta- â€¢tiohal^ second p l a c e ^ t e t p n a m e n t, winning four of fiyematches.Twoof the wins were oyer-:district leading Central; the loss /was to Portlandi State University; which isrankedmirdgt; nauohally, in the Kevin Bryant ---------- Western Front - 1991 October 25 - Page 14 ---------- 14 The Western Front OPINIONS October 25,1991 Mpir~~ - ^ ^ N M M J ^ J J tepojj COM* iw ^uvnMeVoo iOi*rr, gar -rfcucu/j ueuecLveW j IIC-J.â€”â€¢â€”'â€žn''Ai/'^u,,o YOOt Â«-TnLto.,/-_Lrirr- -~7Â«w4vlt;s?mofvÂ«5Dr) --nmarlt;cez *z.*joâ€¢lt;z*e -inw?v ,u.)JlAi^jreor gt;T Z-rgt;e.s .â€¢" Thetrue meaning of death By Clayton Wright staff reporter Death â€” a term so commonly used that its true meaning is practically defunct. A noun substituted frequently to describe the termination of anythingformerly in existence. But the true, undefined meaning of death prevails only to those who understand. Idon't understand. But last week I became painfully aware of its presence, I've never even seen death, but I know it lingers. My life is unmarred when it comes to such personal tragedy, butl now realize how deathcan clutter a clear conscience. Last Sunday my mom called, her wavering voice signaling panic, to tellme my dad was in the hospital with amysterious illness. The symptoms were rare and extensive, theprognosis undetermined. Our highly developed, highly technological medical institution poked andprobed, but were unable to come up with an accurate diagnosis of the problem. For a few brief moments,as I clutched the phone, I incurred a mental lapse. My usually clear thought and instinctive dialogue were lost. I felt fear. True fear. My grasp on the receiver turned my knuckles white. I stood motionless, stunned by the turn of events, paralyzed by fear. A force of fear I can not remember ever experiencing. As mycognitive abilities returned, I thought about death. For one shortmoment, I saw death. So personified, such immediacy. My dad is now home recovering; weak and aggravated, but recovering. My temporary fear of death has faded. I managed to elude its plague. But I know it's there. And the next time I use theword, I'll think about what it really means. Barbecues and bake sales: The revitalization of the CIA ByJohnny Herber staff reporter The White House has rats. This isn't really startling news to most. I'm suremany of us remember the story last year of how Barbara Bush came face to face with a rat while taking adip in the White House swimming pool. The unfortunate animal was promptly drowned by PresidentBush; sort of his "Zero Tolerance" policy for rats. In fact, William Seale's history of the mansion, "ThePresident's House," dates the rodent problem back to 1809. It also talks about how in the 1860's,President Andrew Johnson's daughter proclaimed a "War on Rats." But while she spared no expense forall manner of traps and legions of cats, she was unsuccessful in solving the problem. Part of herfailure might have been due to the fact that President Johnson was in the habit of leaving flour and waterout atnight in case any of the rats got hungry. That's like the contemporary "War on Drugs." This time the CIA was in the habit of leaving little dishes of money out at night in case any rats like Manuel Noriegagot hungry. What possessed them to do that? I mean, Noriega, isn't exactly one of those dancing micefrom "Cinderella." Did they really think of him as a cuddly little pet? I have to wonder why, in the midst of an arms race with the Soviet Union, the CIA had nothing better to do than to play "Let's Make A Deal"with drug lords? What scares me is the thought of the kinds of mischief they'll get themselves into nowthat they'll have more time on their hands. Obviously, they need something else to do to keep them out of trouble. One option is that there's always work for them in the 12 new Soviet republics. Given theagency's penchant for peddling U.S. influence around the globe, all they'll have to do to make inroadsinto the new Soviet governments is to change the image of the average CIA agent from the cloak anddagger persona of the past into a new type of agent who merely wants to make friends, maybe throw abarbecue: kind of a used car salesman with a shoulder holster. But there's only 12 republics. Only a partof the agency can be kept busy over there. Of course the CIA also has their ongoing operations in LatinAmerica to keep them occupied, but in reality, the only threat south of our border is that Mexican potatogrowers may begin outselling U.S. potato growers. All that the CIA would have to do in that case is to airdrop a bunch of agency Mr. Potatohead's armed with portable Cuisinart's(and disguised in littlesunglasses and sombreros) into Mexican potato fields and the problem would be solved. So again, whatwill we do with the rest of the CIA? We can't really fire them. After almost a half a century of fighting theforces of Communism, giving out pink slips might be enough to cause agency ideologists tospontaneously combust. Ironically, the new Soviet "spymaster", Yevgeny Primakov, has another solution. He feels that U.S. and Soviet Intelligence should team up in the battle againstdrug trafficking andinternational terrorism. While I do commend Mr. Primakov for the thought, I also think that his Glasnosticvision is a little short sighted. We need to first look at how our traditional methods of "rat catching" havefailed to work in the past before we waste further energy on them. It seems a simple enough solution, just kill the rats and the problem should go away. But every time we do, more rats come along to replacethem. Anyone who knows about rats will tell you that if there are rats in your house and you want themout, clean up your house. If the rats have nothing to feed on, they will either die or go away. At the worstthey'll get desperate and careless, eventually setting themselves up to be caught by a skilled rat catcher. It works the same way with our drug problem. Our problem isn't the international drug cartels. They arerun by rats; they are run by survivors. As long as there is a market, see Rats, com. on pg. 15 Iffllllffii Allwomen were victims in Thomas' hearings A dangerous precedent has been set in American society. Inthe aftermath of the Clarence Thomas confirmation hearings, the efforts of the thousands of women who have been fighting for years for recognition of sexual harassment have been virtually erased. An article in Thursday's Seattle Times regarding a Senate subcommittee on discrimination and harassment in theworkplace states that three women who were scheduled to appear decided not to show up. According tothe article, the women decided that to appear before the committee would put their careers in jeopardy.They made this decision after watching the Judiciary Committee tear apart the credibility of Thomas'accuser, Anita Hill. Two members of yesterday's subcommittee, including the chairman, were on theJudiciary Committee. The reactions of the three women is unsettling. It shows that they do not have faithin their government to treat their concerns fairly or compassionately. The "glass ceiling" which has keptwomen from moving up to high positions in our society has once again been slammed down on thefingers of women everywhere. The results of the Thomas hearing are not the issue. It's how the wholesituation was handled that has sent women's rights back 15 years. Rather than taking a serious look atthe allegations, Republicans (and some Democrats) on the Judiciary Committee jumped on the Bushbandwagon and began attacking Hill, claiming she was fantasizing the allegations, or that she was "ascorned woman."Bush's campaign to discredit his nominee's accuser will have dangerous meaning in asociety already insensitive to women's issues. The power-hungry men in society received governmentendorsement to continue trying to dominate women in the workplace. They can now follow the example oftheir President and trash the reputation of any woman who dares to bring forward charges of harassmentor discrimination. Such women can be labeled as opportunists or fantasizers. And the "glass ceiling" willslam down even harder. Editor, Steve McClure; Managing Editor, AlexandraM.

Rape and all forms of sexual assault are most definitely a real and powerful concern for students on campus. Unfortunately, rape is also vastly unreported, which accounts for the fact that University Policelacks concrete statistics as to what the prevalence of sexual assault is on our campus. Rape is a crimeof violence, both physical and emotional. Verbal threats and coercion can be just as frightening andforceful as physical threats and bodily harm. Physical bruises are not always necessary to createemotional scars. Whenever a sexual situation lacks actual words or conduct indicating freely givenconsent for sexual activity on the part of all persons involved, a sexual assault is occurring. It is estimated that one out of six college women will be sexually assaulted this year. The idea of rape conjures upimages of a woman being drug by her hair into a dark alley by an unknown assailant in adark hat andtrenchcoaL The unnerving truth is that roughly 85 percent of rape or attempted rape victims knew theirassailant, and that not all rape victims are women. But what can one person do to change the odds ofsexual assault from happening? Actually, there is a plethora of preventative measures that protectstudents from becoming statistics. Follow security measures. Do not prop residence hall doors open.Always walk with a friend after dark, or call Security at 676-3555 for an escort. Lock your doors. Be strong and assertive. Educate yourself and others about sexual violence. Carry mace, keys, a rolling pin, orother possible weapon when going out. Learn self-defense. Name rapists everywhere. Leave abusiverelationships. Do not be accommodating. Volunteer at Whatcom County Crisis Center (671-5714 or 384-3748) or Womencare Shelter for Battered Women (734-3438 or 671-8539). Be aware of the fact thatover 90 percent of date and acquaintance rapes involve the use of alcohol. Walk tall, be proud, and takecharge of situations. Demand justice for rape, murder and battering crimes. Dial 911 and report crimes.Publicize your anger. Take care of yourself, and be a healer. Learn to say "NO". It can take months oryears to heal from the trauma of a sexual assault. If you have been assaulted, get help. Contact theSexual Awareness Center (VU 214/647-6117), the Counseling Center (MH 262/676-3164), HealthServices (High Street Hall 25/676- 3400), VP for Student Affairs/Student Life (OM 390/676-3846),Whatcom County Crisis Center (734-7271/384-1485,24-hours), University Police (676-3555), orBellingham Police (911). Do not try to deal with the problem on your own. Seek the support you need and deserve.Rape is a terrible violation of one's sense of security and self-worth, but it is a wound from which one canheal. Sincerely, Michelle Hull Robyn Rogers Sexual Awareness Center Clarification It has come to the attention of The Western Front editors that headlines used on the letters page (Oct. 18 and Oct 22)regarding Initiative 120 have caused some confusion.

Thus there is a better role that the CentralIntelligence Agency can take for our country: the promotion of intelligence in our country. Agentscould become teacher aides, tutors and counselors, putting their information gathering skills to positiveuse. They could help care for our nation's elderly, work in hospitals and create community centers whereour youth can safely play. They wouldn't and shouldn't solve our country's problems, but they couldhelp us along by becoming a kinder, gentler CIA. Why not? It's better than them getting tangled up in the strings of their own puppet dictators. Why not? They've got budget money allocated to them already andwe could u the help. Why not? It's a way for them to help our country to finally rid itself of all these rats: a "Zero Tolerance" policy for ignorance. What is it you're saying?

Tensions Mount As Finals Week If ears College To Gel Station In 1964 If all goes well,Western and the Bellingham area may have an educational television station by the summer of 1964.The college is asking the state legislature to grant $56,500 for a studio, .transmitter, and equip-rrjent.Additional support is expected in matching funds from the federal government. This would be grantedunder the Mag-nuson- Robert Educational Television Bill signed by the President May 1. ,Bellingham's television station, KVbS, has eased the budget by offering $2,500 worth of labor and otheraid to complete the transmitter and the use of a transmitter support on Orcas Island's Mt.Constitution. If the governor shows favor to the appropriations in his address to the Legislature inJanuary, the proposal will be handed to the state television commission. Provided the plans areaccepted there, they will then revert back to the legislature for consideration of a state-wideeducational television network. It is believed that Western is the only applicant in Northwest Washington. "A full program schedule is being outlined, including plays special events, telecourses, children'sprograms and general adult programs. Part of the programs will originate at Western with films and.live shows, and provisional plans call for hookup with â€¢ the' University of Washington's "Channel 9(KCTS) for daytime and evening shows. Two hours a day will be provided by tlie National EducationalTelevision and Radio Center in Washington. ' Inquiry -has-been made about obtaining the ultra highfrequency Channel 18. Tensions mount on Western's campus as hundreds of students settle down fornext week's bath of fire, ignited through the courtesy of professors, fanned with the madness of finals,and sustained with the fuel of midnight oil. Three Collegian reporters set out this week to learn justhow Westernites feel about this perennial malady called finals week. As expected, everyone/hadsomething to say. Dave Benseler declared, "Finals are ridiculous. Professors should give enoughtests during the quarter to evaluate students." On the other hand, government major Don Holert thinksthey are "a necessary evil," but wishes we didn' t have them. Jan Tebelman, elementary educationmajor, is of the opinion that "Finals are somewhat better than a lot of busy work!-" Maxine, Lightburn,junior, put it a bit more strjangiy. ^'Finals are horrible,'' she said gt;!' 'They make the . week ^Sveryhectic," Ray Burke seem^ lt;i: to agree commenting that i gt;ec. 11 '|hrough v 14 are the dark days:of the fall quarter. .,, - i ^-1 -Linda Crews felt there is too much emphasis on fact and not enough onconcepts. "I don't think fimm grades are necessary, anyway!" she exclaimed. Bill Paulson thinks thereis much emphasis on grades and the final, "If a student does well in a class for most of the quarter andthen messes up the final he may flunk the course." Paulson suggests it would be better to use manytests, supplemented with committee work and projects to base class evaluation on. He believes thiswould create a "feeling of activity, not passivity" in students. "Although our finals are bad," Paulsonreasoned, "they are not as bad as some European school testing programs where students take onelong test after four years of study." A typical reaction was expressed by foreign languageelementary education major, Dick Hedges. "I'm getting used to finals by now," he said, "But I'll reallybe glad when they're over." He then excused himself to attend his final history seminar at Shakey's!Students are not alone in their frustrations of finals. Dr. Herbert Taylor thinks final week is a situationof "sheer hysteria, although perfectly normal," for both faculty and students. "No one I know is satisfiedwith the present situation," he said, "but no one has come up with an adequate substitute." Dr. EdwardNeuzil of the Chemistry Department described finals as "an enormous barrier between the firstpart of the quarter and vacation. "I don't believe in finals," he said. "They don't serve their purpose.Ten micro-seconds after a student has walked out he has forgotten 80 per cent of what he learned. "The main trouble is that people are not learning for knowledge's sake," Neuzil emphasized. "They aretrying to get a union card." Finals week presents a unique set of circumstances for the coffee shop."It is deader than heck during test periods but between tests it is packed," explained Charles Blair,coffee shop manager. "Coffee sales rise spectacularly," he added. "We go through five gallons morecoffee per day." Not everyone is dreading finals, though. D. Maconoghie, the campus marshal, islooking forward to them. "My problems all disappear during finals week," he said jubilantly. "Thereare no campus activities that draw a large group of students. Everybody is burning the midnight oil."Constantine Franks, local Hamburger impresario, also viewed finals week with pleasant anticipation. "Our business goes up quite a bit," he commented. "Cigarette sales just about double, especially togirls." NSF Awards Western $104,600 In Grants By Ernie Smith The National Science Foundationhas awarded Western a grant totaling $104,600 for the financing of a mathematics and physicssummer institute for secondary school teachers. "The: total grant for the Physics Department is$43,600, a major portion of which represents subsistence allowances for the participants, 30 innumber," Dr. Raymond McLeod, summer institute director, said in a recent interview. Dr. SheldonRio, mathematics summer institute director, said also in. a recent interview that the MathematicsDepartment has mathematics participate. teachers who will OBJECTIVES The prime objective of bothsummer programs is to enchance the quality of instruction and to improve subject matter preparationof secondary school teachers who are currently engaged in physics or mathematics teaching. "This is the first physics in? stitute of this kind," commented McLeod. Rio noted that this was thfc thirdsummer the general NSF program had been in operation. Participants are selected on the been granted.$el,'ooo"by1he NSF ! gt;asis oftheir capability for ser to support 40 secondary school English TestDates Changed The English Competency Test dates have been changed for winter and springquarters, according to Dr. Merle S. Kuder, dean of students. "The test will be held during the thirdweek of winter quarter on Thursday, January 17 and Saturday January 19. The dates for spring quarterwill be Thursday, April 18 and Saturday, April 20." he said. Dr. Kuder cited one reason for the change, "this action was done to give the department of English a more reasonable span of time in which toevaluate the increasingly large number of tests." The chairman of the English dpeartment, Dr. E. R.Clapp said, "readings were almost impossible, especially this quarter with the Thanksgiving weekend.It created a real problem. Now that there will be a longer time in which to read them, a better job canbe done." Dr. Clapp urged students to take the test as soon as they are eligible. "Students may take ittheir fifth quarter at Western if they have successfully passed both English 100 and English 101 at thisschool." "If the students wait, they will only create more problems," he emphasized. STUDENT HOWIECLARK relaxes as he studies for next week's final exams. OFFERED EACH QUARTER The EnglishCompetency Test is a test offered each quarter. It is a two part test consisting of a dictation-spelling part and a written essay. A student must pass the entire test before he may take his first studentteaching course, according to the college catalogue. However, accord ing to Dr. Bearnice Skeen,coord inator of student teaching, there are a few exceptions for students planning to graduate in spring or summer, 1963. Students planning to graduate then, who have not passed the English CompetencyTest, are urged to contact her for details concerning this exception. Miss Leslie Hunt of the Englishdepartment said, "this test is not something that the English department dreamed up, but is intended as a screen to weed out poor writers and spellers before they enter student teaching." Dr. â€¢ Skeen said,"the English Competency Test is a device to get good qualified teachers." "The English CompetencyTest is a college test that is not only a test of spelling, but a test of students' abilities in grammar,reading, writing and thinking," Dr. Clapp concluded. ious study in either mathematics or physics. Thereare no restrictions on who may apply or where they are now teaching except they must be teaching in the United States. COURSES AND STAFF "Courses in physics will include upper division courses inmechanics, electricity and magnetism, atomic physics, history of physics, and projects andseminars, including discussions of physics curricula and materials for secondary schools," McLeodemphasized, f Dr. Arnold Lahti and Dr. Richard Lindsey will assist McLeod in the physics program. The mathematics summer institute will offer courses in logic and sets, point set theory, geometry,number theory, and a curriculum seminar. The staff will include Dr. William Abel, Dr. JamesMcFarland, Dr. Sheldon Rio, all of Western. Dr. Ralph James of the University of British Columbia willalso be on hand for the program. Both directors said that credit gained by completion of the coursesoffered could be forwarded toward a masters degree. Both institutes will be held during the regularsummer session next year. Dr. Hoshisaki To Participate In Math Meeting Dr. Joseph Hashisaki,chairman of Western's Mathematics Department, will travel to San Francisco Dec. 10 and 11 toattend the regional conference of the Committee on the Undergraduate Program in Mathematics.Hashisaki will participate in a panel discussion, "Teacher Education at the Elementary Level." Theconference will be concerned with implementing the recommendations of the CUPM and theMathematical Association of America for the training of teachers at the elementary and junior highschool levels.

It's Christmas! Gary Beeman, student body executivevice president, won a vote of confidence from the legislature Monday after a group petitioning forBeeman's recall asked for a legislative mandate to control his activities. The largest crowd to attend alegislature meeting this year heard the accusations and Bee-man's defense. Following an extendeddebate the solons by secret ballot voted to support Beeman when the recall election came up.There were only two dissenting votes cast. Persons connected with the recall petition said after themeeting that the move for recall would not be followed through to an election. In other action, KenStalman, in a special letter to the legislature, resigned his post as legislator at large. "It's been apleasure serving on this board," Stalman said. "I feel that my experience here will aid me in the future."Stalman will enter Mexico City University winter quarter. "The only think I won't have to sweat down there are finals," Stalman chuckled. President Mike Hyatt posed an interesting question to the board and the group of more than 40 students that packed into the room ior the three-hour meeting. "What wouldhappen if the board refused to accept the resignation of a member," Hyatt said. ; Neil Murry proposeda revision to election rules which would prohibit any campaigning on elec; tion days. - ."What if I have, a good friend who goes around asking people to -vote for me .oh-:'balloting days?''

Probably not, but one of Western's security patrolman was attacked by a bat afew'years ago in the attic of Old Maiir. He successfully fought it off iwith : his trusty Eveready. flashlight,according to the campus marshal, D. 0. Maconoghie, head of. the security patrol. Student SecurityPatrolman Charles Choate confirmed the fact ..that there are bats in the attic, viewed each night bysecurity patrolmen when they make their nightly inspections. Remember . . .

Terry JEWELER 1305 Commercial Western's security patrol consists of the campus copswith a subdivision of traffic control..The patrolmen are deputized by the city of, Bellingham. Thecombined forces now boast 12 students. "Before the security patrol there was a lone night watchmanwho inspected the buildings for fire only. The present security patrol, however, keeps, a wary eye outfor more than just fires," Maconoghie noted. The marshal called the security patrol a "unique all-studentorganization ;'' unique because they don't carry guns or clubs. "It would breed antagonism towardthe patrol from students and faculty members, the patrol might think with their weapons instead of theirheads," the marshal said. "Another reason for not allowing weapons is that a peaceful man's latentsadistic urges often come forth when he has a gun, as I have observed in several instances while in theU. S. Navy." Traffic Patrolman Larry Harn-den commented on the purposes of traffic control. "We areconcerned with service to the students, faculty, and guests. We keep traffic moving, driveways andfirelanes open for emergencies and give information." Harnden concluded with, "We are for thestudents, not against them and will give them the benefit of the doubt." The purpose of the campus cops was explained by Traffic Patrolman Chuck Dalton. Bach Motet Featured In Sunday ChristmasConcert Western's Department of Music will feature the Concert Chorale in the annual Christmas concert I t never fails! When I get to Bellingham, everyone is down at Ennens! ENNEN'S THRIFTWAYrwvrtshyotift HIGH AND HOLLY "WHERE EVERY CUSTOMER IS IMPORTANT" at 4 p.. m. Sunday inthe College Auditorium. Bach's motet: "Jesu, Priceless Treasure," will be the selection highlighted, bythe group. David B. Schaub, organist, will open the program with Daquin's prelude "Noel." The collegechoir follows with Williams' "He Whom Joyous Shepherds Watched," Lockwood's "A Lullaby forChristmas," Ward's "That Wondrous Night of Christmas Eve" and Davis' "Carol of the Drum." SoloistJames Calhoon will be featured with the Western State-men in Work's "Go Tell It On The Mountain." The group will also sing Palestrina's "O Bone Jesu" and De Paur's "Oh, Po' Little Jesus." From Handel's"Messiah," Martin Campbell, bass, will sing the recitative: "For Behold, Darkness Shall Cover the Earth" and the aria: "The People That Walked in Darkness." David Schaub will accompany him on the organ.The coed chorus will do Wil-lan's "Glory To God in the Highest," ,Di_Lasso's "Adoramus te Christe"and ''Ding Dong, Merrily On High," a French carol arranged by Barthelson. Tansman's. variations ona theme by Girolamo Frescobaldi will be played by the college chamber 'orchestra. Concluding theprogram will be the chorale and choir in Schreck's advent motet: "Entrance Scene." "The patrol is tomake sure the campus is secure and quiet after normal working hours." One requirement for patrolmenis that they be married. The patrol checks for fires in various areas where hot plates or irons may haveaccidentally been left on. They were credited with saving part of Old Main last spring when a fire brokeout in the old honors room. Maconoghie explained that there is at least one fire drill each quarter ineach building on campus to check the speed of exit of building occupants and to see if all equipment isworking properly. One of the problems cleared up recently was that of the exit signs in the Ridgewaydormitories. They were changed because some of the directions led people out onto the balconies where escape was impossible. "All doors of all campus buildings are rattled at least three times eachnight," Choate said, "but not at the same time each night. This is to help curb any dishonesty that might occur. A lock keeps out ari honest man." Choate concluded that "The security patrol isn't here to'get*! anyone, but. to m a k e everyone's stay here as . pleasant as possible." Past campus capersthat were interesting, h u m o r o u s, and unique, encountered by the security and traffic patrols,included the appearance of a real stuffed seal in the Rain Forest, bats and rats in Eden's Hall andOld Main's attic, spooky creaks, rattles and mysterious footsteps in Old Main caused by wind, raiii,and perhaps a stow-away illegally in the building after hours. An actual outhouse and marble, slabsdraped with a fish net were set up in front of Old Main; class bells were found ringing all night in theHumanities Building; the door of the Library was blocked by a pile of bricks; a beer sign in front ofHaggard Hall stating "It takes good science to make good beer"; a simulated ladder to the second floorof Higginson Hall with a man's clothes hung from the bottom to the top; a real skeleton relocated fromthe PE Building to a nearby field; and a rumor that said that there were nude swimming parties inWestern's pool several years ago are a few such capers.

Even theViking Union lounge has taken on the look of a miniature Macy's â€”-and any day we expect to see theentire city of Bellinghani come rushing in the doors to buy the cute little toothpicks and anythingelse that might be lying about. I As Christianity in the United States jibecomes more and moremeaningless, 'Christmas becomes less and less Christinas and will soon be only a day on the -jcalendar for which people buy gifts for 'others in anticipation of greater gifts | n return. ji The whole ideabecomes even more - ^ridiculous when one stops to think .that t h e concept of Christ has been reduced?to a fat man with a white beard and jan evergreen tree with garbage on itâ€” ^neither of which have anybearing on: 4he fact that Christmas is the celebration of the birth of one of history's greatest prophets. And if any birth relating to Christianity should be celebrated it should be ithe birth of Saint Paul, thatletter-jwriting idiot who did everything i n i i is [power to see that the Christian religion jnever had arational or even spiritual Ibasis-â€”and succeeded. r- But the celebration (and it really is a ;celebration, ifone can believe t h e Car-ling's beer ds) does serve a useful purpose, besides that of making storeowners richer. The birth and death of Christ are the only two things that are holding the Christianreligion, at least in the United States, together. If it weren't for the emotionalism involved in these yearlyevents that draws the "backsliders" into the chapel, humans would probably immediately revert to their basic amoral ways. One might even develop the idea that Christmas is actually anti-Christian. If we areto believe that one of the bases for all this nonsense about giving everybody and the family dogpresents is that Christ was big on the idea that it is better to give, etc., we can look about and see thateveryone seems to be taking. Kids want long lists of things from "Sahta?' (and usually get them),college students want typewriters or sports cars (and often get them), and mommy is terriblydisappointed if she doesn't get a mink coat or a n e w house. And whoever buys all these things neverseems to buy them i with the feeling that he is actually being grand and giving something, but that he isobligated to keep peace in the family. And Christmas cards are another seasonal absurdity. We getfancy, expensive greetings from people we haven't seen for years and care little if we see again. Buteveryone is still taken in by the great evergreen facade. We see students in the lounge with bowed heads and sincere'humility gazing at all that Yule-tide splendor â€” wondering what their mommies anddaddies will give them. â€”Bill Burke. fPrdblom Of Dictatorship liJPar gtiay Revealed Statementtranslated by Collegiate press service. "The Federacion Universitaria de Paraguay has the honor oftak-the floor to express the solidarity of Paraguayan students with all the students of the world who aremaking their student life a bulwark against oppression and social injustice. "The struggle in whichParaguayan students have; been engaged for a long time against one of the most cruel, dictatorships in the history of the American people is well known by all; the government of Paraguay, in the hands of General Alfredo Stroes-sner; has established a typical ^Latift American Creole dictator- Ship.~ "For 19. years the country has lived ; in a state of emergency; there does not exist a single politicalparty jn Paraguay, neither is there a student-center nor the University Federation, which 'could make use of the media of â€¢broadcasting; papers, magazines or radio; the foreign-press agencies aresubjected to severe govls ernmental control. The*- regime1 combats all opposition which rises againstthe arbitrary measures which it imposes with a perfectly contrived police force, with the most vigilantmeans of repression and with professional torture. Accompanying this situation of terror there isunfolded the most dramatic social and economic situation in which the- Paraguayan people live. "Themost eloquent sign of the state of affairs in Paraguay is the fact that there are more and moreinternational organizations offering food and clothing to the people of Paraguay; in -this aspect,international aid in 1960 reached the sum of U. S. $1,500,- 003. with which one could only remedy theproblemâ€”but not solve it. "Besides this, a grave problem farms to search for a better life outside thecountry. "But what is most dramatic is that the Paraguayan government is unmoved by this tragedy, and does absolutely nothing to make citizens stay in the country. "All this situation is accompanied bytremendous administrative corruption, a veritable military caste having been formed, enjoying all theprivileges denied the ordinary people: "In the international field, neither the Organization of AmericanStates nor the United States has done anything to alleviate the situation at all; on the contrary, ourdictator is constantly receiving visits from presidents of other nations who call themcelves democratic.The U. S., just as Argentina and Brazil, maintains military missions in Paraguay, is_the massive exodus of Para*- j which give assistance to the Par guayan citizens, to the neighbor-! aguayan military,especially in ing countries of Brazil and Argen-1 their fight against the guerillas tina^ Hundreds ofParaguayans j who are the heroic vanguard of daily abandon their homes and the liberation of ourfatherland. "Certainly the situation of the universities is no different from the general situation of thecountry. The university is subject to a rector who is directly under the control of the government. Ananachronistic and arbitrary set of statutes concerning the university has been imposed by thegovernment. The result is inadequate offices, ill-paid staff, and an annual budget insufficient to coverminimal expenses. This is briefly the typical pattern of our universities, but in the midst of this theParaguayan students, the FUP, despite the most violent repression, persecution, banishment andprison, does not cease its active struggle against the dictatorial regime. "And it's here that we say thatit is the hope of the Federacion Universitaria de Paraguay that all the students of the world willunderstand our problem and give encouragement to the student of Paraguay in this so unequal andheroic struggle which has ensued Bv Dick Simmons A rumor has filtered out of the Biology Departmentthat 3,000 vicious green Himalayan termites have escaped from one of the labs and are presentlychewing Old Mange to bits.

Actually that wasn't really what I'm referring to. What happened wascompletely irrelevant. I was at this rollicking, frolicsome, huge Bacchanalian orgy on this great big raftout in the middle of Lake Whatcom. This may seem rather hard to believe, i.e. the fact that anyone would throw an orgy oh a raft in the middle of Lake Whatcom, and with risible sensitivities I find myselfchuckling a bit as I realize that my own thinking is in accord with your views, but it's true! â€” Skoff ..â€¢'. ., Well anyway this party was being held in honor of everybody who had flunked out this quarterbefore the quarter was over. We were all chanting our fight song to a beautiful Gregorian melody: "Fight!Fight! Fight! for Ditchdigger High"â€”It made us feel good. There was this girl at the party named GrettaFunge, a buxom lass full of vinegar and viiupretive humorsâ€”well anyway, Gretta had a big love bite thathad caused her to go completely bald at the tender age of 18. But that also is irreverent. Just as theparty-was reaching the acme of equalitarian discrepancies, I suddenly remembered that I had forgottenmy gold plated tie tack with the picture of Eleanor Roosevelt riding a donkey and telling the women of the world how to be better women, given to me by that grand old man of washroom maintenance, HermanFlush, in the Collegian office. So I threw Gretta in the lake, raced, to shore, jumped in my car, streakedup to the College, slammed into the garbage truck parked behind the coffee shop, ran down the backsteps to the office, tore open the door, flicked on the lights, and suddenly there were these two beautifulgirls sitting there looking rather surprised, and not knowing what to say. (Now wasn't that a heck of a way to tell you about these two gir|s that were sitting in the dark down in the Collegian office last Saturdaynight?) yeah. . : '?-* lt;â€¢'â€¢ Anyway I didn't want them to become violent so I casually said: "Hi there, how are you.

The role of the campus newspaper, -informing the community and serving a function ofintellectual leadership, is particularly noteworthy. Student government also has a vital rqle^o play in,educating students .for participation in politics, as well as in representing student opinion arid'administering phases of the college-program. These roles of press and government are essentiallycomplementary, not'. antipathetic., it would be unfortunate ifthe press should see its role towardstudent government as primarily negative arid destructive; equally unfortunate "would be thesubjectionof student leaders td_ unfair attack by the pressj perhaps,, tending to discourage; futurecandidacies for these leadership-positiohs/' News media today are widely recognized as, having anobligation to separate editorial opinion from news "columns/ and to report the news accurately aridfairly. It appears to. iis that The Collegian has not fully accepted this distinction, as illustrated by theissue of. Noy^ 30. The lead headline, ' 'Beeman Ousting Imminent . .. " is not supported by the storyfollowing, arid was a pr|-judgment which' apparentiy assumed ^thatV â€¢if a recall election were gt;held, the Subject of- the -story would -be defeated. This unsigned story-fails considerably short -of -presenting; ja coherent, grammatical, and fair statement yot. the facjs involved. That- "the' only quoteavailable from an informed student'',-should come frorri one who had,"on Oct. 5, written; ah attack in TheCollegian ori;Beeman'rs efforts- with regard to^the Book Store; seems an extraordinary breach offairness. .' Turning: to the^ editorial page, if Beeman is,a ''scapegoat'' as the headings indicates',then", according to: our-dictionary, he is "one: who bears the blame for others?' The entirely gratuitousheading on the second editorial, "Besides the Gary Beeman Scandal," assumes-the existence of a"scandal'' which has not "been' proven..^ -v;/ .-â€¢'-'. ''-;'.â€¢;;â€¢-.â€¢':â€¢.= A campjis.newspaper,,supported out Of student fees,-;arid design nated the %%lf icial Weekly*^.Newspaper''of the College, has special responsibilities whichjitt seems to us; have been insufficiently recognized byits staff. At arnini-mum, these surely include accurate, literate, and fair reportage in the newscolumns, with headlines avoiding prejudicial sensationalism perhaps modeled after some of the less admired segments on the. non-student press. To the exteni that The Collegian circulates beyOnd: the campus, it is an important means of. representing WWSC.to the larger community and state,including members of the State Legislature. Whether in its r tendency -toward sensationalism and -- iri its frequently unfortunate syntax: it has, been a good representative is at least open to argument: Inits editorial advocacy of an essentially pacifist position, the paper has doubtless ..been within itsrights, but surely;; represents only a minute fraction of student opinion. That its columns have not beenopened more fully to contrasting opinions seems inconsistent with its financial support andrepresentative responsibilities. In no. proper sense is The Collegian the editor's newspaper; it is thenewspaper of the entire college community, and should reflect its aims as "a community of scholars."Consistent with that objective, The Cdllegiari might well extend its coverage of naÂ» tional andinternational affairs, including signed columns of informed opinions by able students. As WWSCexpands, it may be appropriate that both the roles of student government and the student press growwith it. To fulfill its potential as a vital force in an intellectual community, offering a broad sampling of campus news and opinion, and increased attention to the problems of the larger. community, local, national, and international; The Collegian is, we- hope, making plans for enlarged and more frequenteditions, with increased emphasis on the canons of; jour-nalistic ethics. . - JOHN J.

Are you really this hard put to find filler material? The whole thing, I think, conjures up a vivid image of a pack of dogs sniffing after abitch that is too small to mount. But, then I suppose this is another of the tiresome old turnstilesthat most of us think we have to pass through at one time or another. - I was under the impression thatmost people outgrow this sort of thing and leave it behind with their freshman beanies, beards and otherundergraduate foolishness. However it has recently come to my attention that certain facultymembers have lately taken part in this, grave, grave situation.. Now, it may be that these facultymembers believe that because of the professorial omniscience image, they will be heeded and theirefforts therefore will be effective. But, I'm afraid that what they may feel to be effective will merely rapethe emotion of their intended audience without nourishing its values. But then they couldn't possibly beserious, could they?

Soon he wriggles his way into the warm building...The smell of food reaches his nose and he sniffs delightedly. Edging closer to the door of the fragrant-smelling room, he suddenly stiffens. A person in a white coat has seen him and with a shout of hey!,starts after him. Cowering behind the nearest people, he tries to stay un-noticed. But he is spotted andwith a look of fear in his eyes, he runs out the door. This little drama is repeated time after time atWestern. Each mealtime is marred by the tragedy felt by the small being. Naturally this concernsthe dog who somehow never quite manages to go through the meal lines at Saga. Of course he isbecoming better at ducking and weaving in and out among legs.

More than 150 people attended the opening in theViking Union Main Lounge, said Director of Women Studies Rosanne Kanhai. Kanhai said she felt it was important for this type of conference to take place in a homogenous community like Western.. "(Theconference) is a strong voice to be heard by anyone who is listening," Kanhai - said. "It is important thatthis type of event is supported by the campus." The SOCI conference is a national event that rotatesaround the country, Kanhai said. Each time it is hosted somewhere, it integrates itself into the area,Kanhai said. The opening ceremonies included presentations from Vice Provost Ken Simes; MargaretGreen, Chieftan of the Samish Indian Tribe; and tribal dancing and drumming by Chief John Cagey ofthe Lummi tribe with his wife and five grandchildren. Green shared her story of earning a degree fromEvergreen State College in The Little Swan Dancers performed the Dance of the 1978 and continuing tofight for greater tne sisters of Color conference opening. education for her people. racism of a dominatingwhite culture, Front/Matt Renschler Little People Friday night at Green expressed desire for Western tocontinue to educate students about her native lands. "The university should be a place to help peoplehelp themselves and make them grow," Green said. Provost Roland De Lorme formally opened theprogram. "Dr. De Lorme has always been a strong supporter (of women studies)," Kanhai said. "It wasappropriate that someone from Western's faculty should welcome conference participants." GailTremblay of Olympia substituted for Mary Crow Dog, who was scheduled to be the featured speaker ofthe night. Tremblay read poetry concerning the toward Native American cultures. She began herreadings with excerpts from Mary Crow Dog's book, Lakota Woman. She also read poems from herbook, Indians Singing in 20th Century America. Kanhai said the conference was meant to be agathering of people coming together regarding issues of color. The conference will be followed up by ananthology of participants' works. Kanhai said she is expecting an enthusiastic response for thepublication that will be distributed in the fall. Front/Erin Fredrichs Angela Eun Ee Koh Gibson spokeSaturday. By Robin Skillings The Western Front Five women of color spoke about their personalexperiences during a panel Saturday afternoon titled "The Politics of Identity" in Viking Addition 461-3.Angela Eun Ee Koh Gibson, an American Cultural Studies major, opened the panel with the backgroundand history of her topic of discussion, "Involuntary Immigrants: Korean-American Adoptees." "... I'ma bad memory to my mother. I'm an embarrassment to my nation. I'm not sure where I was born. I am not sure who I am. I'm case 8,819," Gibson read from a Ji Sun Sjogren poem, "Seed from a Silence." TheU.S. government, Gibson said, adopts Korean children as a humanitarian action to "save them from theirpoor living situations." She said the humanitarian theory is the most prominent issue for transracialadoptees. It is important for adopting families to know the children's situations and for children to haveknowledge of their back-, grounds should they begin to ask, Gibson said. Adopted from Seoul Korea atthe age of 2, Gibson said she views being Korean as only a "physical appearance." She traveled with her father to Korea at the age of 16. While there, she realized that "even though we shared the same color, I still didn't feel like I fit in ... due to my mannerisms." She continues to ask the questions, "Where do I fit in?" and, "Who am I accepted by?" Following Gibson's presentation, Touk Praseuthsy and Bopha Chan opened their discussion titled "Caught in a Culture Clash: Young Women Straddling South East Asiaand America." Praseuthsy, a Western finance student, said, "The mom versus the daughter of the SeeIdentity, -page 4 Western students saved from JWE headache By Ken Brierly and Julie Graham TheWestern Front A thorn in the side of many Western students was yanked out Monday by Western'sFaculty Senate. "The Junior Writing Exam is eliminated" said Faculty Senate President Jim Hearne after a unanimous vote to remove the test, "effective immediately," from university requirements. "Hold yourapplause," he said. The change removes one hurdle in the graduation requirements for currentstudents, Hearne said. Specifically, whether they've passed the JWE or not, students currentlyattending Western will now only be required to take a writing proficiency course in the process of fulfillinggraduation requirements. Incoming freshmen and transfer students as of fall quarter 1999 will be bound by a new set of standards, which are yet to be finalized. The motion to eliminate the test came on therecommendation of the Academic Coordinating Commission, which received the recommendation fromthe Expository Writing Committee. Faculty have long seen limitations in the JWE, said Carmen Werder,consultant to the EWC. "I had students who would write beautiful things for me, then fail the JWE,"said Diana Weymark, an economics professor who first came up with the idea of writing units threeyears ago. As part of its original recommendation to remove the JWE, the EWC suggested replacing the current writing proficiency requirements â€” both the JWE and the writing proficiency course â€” withclasses that would supply one to three writing credits, depending on the amount of required writing inthe class, said Thor Hansen, geology department chair; the geology department worked with the EWC to formulate the proposed new requirements. "Instead of having one class to satisfy a writing proficiencyrequirement," Hansen said, "you can have writing from several different disciplines" for writingproficiency credits. Under the proposed plan, a student would need a total of six writing units with apassing grade of "C" or better in order to graduate, Werder said.

College President Charles Florasubmitted the proposal and said the program would be part of Washington state's Early ReleaseProgram. Whatcom Community College and Bellingham Technical Institute would be part of a three-school plan, along with Western, to create a diversified approach to the problem of educating eligibleinmates. Television violence discussed at symposium Aggressibri and the effects of television violenceon behavior were among the major issues discussed during the fourth annual Western Symposium onLearning. "Watching TV violence tends to increase aggressive behavior," said Robert Liebert, associateprofessor of psychology at State University of New York, Stony Brook. He said 80 percent of all thearguments shown on television are settled by violence. The "good guys" are rewarded for theiraggression, "usually with a raise, a vacation and a blonde," he said. Liebert seemed especiallyconcerned with such rewards when given to television policemen for violent behavior. He concludedthat "TV has been shown to be one of the contributors to violence in the world ... We have to reduceviolence and increase socially good television." Group discusses legality of hitchhiking A women'spolitical group dedicated to preserving the spirit of the American government and the constitution began a petition drive to make hitchhiking illegal. Mildred Trantow, president of the Washington state chapter of Pngt;America, said her group opposed the hitchhiking law because "it is hazardous to both thesafety of the hitchhiker and the driver." . Sergeant Harlan Ritter, safety education officer of theWashington State Patrol district office in Everett, said his main concern is.the danger,factor ofhitchhiking. With poor visibility and early darkness during the fall months, Ritter said drivers can't easilysee Wtchhikers,. His office is also concerned about elementary- age children who are hitchhiking, and some are doing so to and from school. Also noted was a Seattle police department survey, from Mayto September 1972, which showed 59 criminal offenses were related to Wtchhiking. Drinking initiativedrowns After gathering thousands of signatures, spending countless hours and hundreds of dollars,Initiative 262 met its end. David Huey, a Western student and organizer of the initiative drive, was thevictim of a car theft â€” the car carrying the signatures for the initiative that, if passed, would havelowered me drinking age in the state of Washington to 18. The car was stolen from in front of initiativeheadquarters in Seattle while he was trying gather more signatures. He was on his way to thesecretary of state's office in Olympia to hand in the signatures. The car was later found on the outskirts of Renton with a note that said, "Fuck you, 262." Huey said the issue was taken to the courts after thetheft, but the motion to allow the initiative on the ballot was turned down.

Faculty Senate adopts new recycled paper plan By ErinBecker The Western Front Western students and faculty may soon be printing on recycled paper andnot even know it. Last night the Faculty Senate passed a resolution to begin phasinging printers andcopiers that can handle recycled paper. A paper company recently introduced 100-percent post-consumer, non-chlorine bleached, recycled paper and Western is currently testing it in some print-Associated Students Vice President for Legislative and Community Affairs Jesse Salomon has beenworking the last three months on the resolution presented by both the AS Board and the FacultySenate, instituting the use of recycled paper in campus printers and copy machines. 'â€¢â€¢ "My goalis to get every computer lab and copier on campus to use 100-percent post-consumer, unbleached,recycled paper," STUDENT PUBLICATIONS EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY WESTERN FRONTAdvertising Sales Representative Academic Year, 1998/1999 Requirements: â€¢Prior sales experiencehelpful but not essential (training provided) â€¢Capable of dealing with the public â€¢Full time studentenrollment required Submit resume and letter of intent to Business Manager, Student Publications,CH110, MS 9100 Bellingham Cooperative School * *"* ' ...a country school in the city Salomon said.The AS Board passed the recy-cled- paper resolution, with the goal of phasing in printers that arecapable of handling the recycled paper. The AS Boaj-d also passed a resolution last Wednesdaydirecting its offices to use this paper in printers and in the new copiers that are being phased in.Salomon said the Faculty Senate seemed receptive to the idea and that a stamp of approval from thesenate is very important. However, the senate will not make the policy concerning recycled paper.Using recycled paper is not a new idea at Western. "Western, to me, has always been a leader inrecycling," said Dale Monroe, director of purchasing at Western. "We carry a large amount of recycled products in our Central Stores." Thirty percent of the paper currently used at Western is recycled;however, the majority of the paper is made from tree pulp. However, Monroe said Central Stores soldmore than $100,000 worth of recycled paper products from July 1997 through December 1997.Recycling Education Coordinator Becky Statzel, of the AS Recycling Center, said Western tried tofollow the 1989 Government Option Landfill Disposal Plan. The GOLD Plan focused on using recycledpaper to reduce waste and promote recycling. The plan eventually lost popularity on Western's campus. "I think it's really hideous that we do not already have recycled paper in all the computer labs," Statzelsaid. "Anyone who has used the labs must have noticed how much paper is used and wasted andshould be in support of the new plan." A few years ago, several students were involved, and recycledpaper appeared in the labs, but it was not long-lived. "Once those students graduated, the pressurewas gone and the program stopped," Salomon said. Salomon said recycled paper may be phased intothe lab printers again if students show strong support. "What needs to happen is the Faculty Senatehas to hear that the students want this, and then hopefully everything will get passed through," Salomonsaid. "(Students) need to call in and put pressure on the board and senate â€” they need to make it anissue." "I think recycling is something everyone should support," Statzel said. "Students need to let the administrators know it is important and put pressure on them." Even though environmental awareness seems to be at a peak, opposition to this plan still exists. Many students complained about the color of the paper during the last attempt at using recycled paper in the labs. Salomon said he thinksstudents may not have been aware of what happens in the process of making white paper. "During thebleaching process, dioxins are released into the environment and the food chain," Salomon said."They are the most carcinogenic chemicals around. Unfortunately, some students did not understandthis and complained about the off-white color." The new 100-percent recycled paper is acid-free and is cleaned with non-chlorine bleach, which is better for the environment, Monroe said. The main complaint was that the paper jammed the printers; the shorter lengths of the fibers caused the paper to curl,Monroe said. "Higher-speed printers cannot tolerate the recycled paper as it is now," Monroe said.Monroe explained that reprocessing the paper makes the paper weaker. "The longer the fibers, thestronger the paper," Monroe said. The new paper is white and costs $4.79 per ream when 8,000 reamsare purchased. The majority of paper used on campus is virgin paper, which costs $2.04 per ream.Western also uses 30-percent recycled paper, which costs $2.45 per ream. Western is now in theprocess of testing the paper in several printers, waiting for the price of the new recycled paper to fall."(Recycled paper) is too expensive, so we will wait and anticipate the cost will be equal to orcheaper than it is now for regular paper," Salomon said. "We've found a new source of 100-percentrecycled paper to replace the previous brand," Steve Baughn of Central Stores said. "We are testing itnow, and if we find four to five people to test it,'we can find where it works and where it doesn't."However, Salomon said it worked well in the AS printer. Western has been using recycled productsfor the past several years, Baughn said. "We've been stocking recycled products for the last 10 to 15years, and we are happy to do it," Baughn said. Statzel said using recycled paper is important in manyways; it is not only better for the environment, but it also supports the recycling market. "It's a goodinvestment for the future. If we pollute our rivers and destroy the environment now, we will pay to clean itup in the future," Salomon said. "If we take the steps we need to now to prevent this, it will stop a lot ofdestruction and save us time and money as a society." Salomon presented the recycled paper planagain at 4 p.m. See Paper, page 6 ---------- Western Front - 1998 June 2 - Page 4 ---------- 4 â€¢ THE WESTERN FRONT NEWS June 2,1998 Speaker says women must learn from each other ByTiffany White The Western Front Miriam Ching Louie spoke about what it will mean to be a woman ofcolor in the 21st century at 7 p.m. Saturday in the Viking Addition 5th floor as part of the weekendSisters of Color International Conference. Jennifer Kang, former teacher with the American CulturalStudies Department, said Louie works with The Women of Color Resource Center at Berkeley, focusingon women's education in a global economy. Louie has worked with women of color and communityissues for more than two decades and is involved in several movements and organizations, such asFuerza Uriida, an organization that supports laid-off Mexican factory workers. Louie began her speech by thanking SOCI for inviting her to take part in the weekend conference. "I think it is a really good timeto have an opportunity to come together as women of color to recharge our batteries," Louie said,"because there are a lot of different advances we have in our communities and work areas. "It is alwaysgood to get together and know that we are not just imagining this stuff; you are not just out there byyourself. There are a lot of other sisters that you can reach out to and teach you a lot of experiences."Louie centered her speech around what it means to be an activist for women of color in the 21st century. Being a woman of color in the 21st century means you will be busy all the time, Louie said. "That iswhat part it means to be a woman of color, is to have your toe on different sets of people, differentgroups and different movements that you are working with in this point of your lives," Louie said. "Toclarify ... you are dealing with sexism, racism, class issues, homophobia and everything â€” you willalways deal with something," Louie said. "In the women's movement, you have to deal with and figureout and choose what are the battles you want to fight, and where you want to get to." Her past as ahistory of activism involved being a member of the Third World Women's f o j | ^ ^ ||^i|pivte^';an:;6rgÂ£fti|a^ SOCJ|ifesi|ltec['. whjen J i * ^ ^ | n | | j ^ vi$|en:^^ Alliance, which was very active in the late1960s and early 1970s, she said. She involved herself in organizations that worked with the civil rights movements and groups that concerned all women's rights, such as the right to have an abortion, whichwere just legalized at that time. The issue of abortion brought up issues of women's access to medicalcare and sterilization and infant mortality in minority communities, Louie said. She used a personalexample to illustrate different struggles. She told the audience that she attended an Asian CommunityService Conference in Los Angeles and was planning to attend another conference concerning humanrights struggles. "I'm not just one person, not a special person, but I think that indicates howcomplicated our lives are as women of color, that we are having to deal with a variety of differentmovements and struggles," Louie said. Women of color in the 21st century will also have to have aglobal perspective, Louie said. "It is an important experience to be able to step outside of your cornerand interact with the rest of the world," she said. Louie referred to the United Nations Decade of Women meetings from 1975 to 1985 as an example of women coming together to discuss global issues. TheBeijing Women's Conference also served as .an opportunity for women to gather and discuss issuessuch as homelessness and migrant workers' rights, and form round tables of women of Front/ErinFredrichs Miriam Ching Louie spoke Saturday at the conference. color organizations, Louie said. Thetwo issues that affect women are human rights issues and the impact of the global economy, Louie said. Overall, Louie said, "... the consciousness of U.S. women around economic issues is really low." TheWomen's Resource Center at Berkeley are working with an educational project to raise consciousness of global issues. "A lot of things that impact the women of color of the United States is part of a globalmodel," Louie said. The center's global project takes main documents of issues and creates aneducation-in-global- economy workbook for high school curriculum. The center is also working withwomen in a partnership with creative writing and poetry to try to get the story of women's lives into themedia, Louie said. The Women Resource Center in Berkeley was initially developed from the racethat emerged from the civil rights movements at that time, but also came from what was happening interms of liberation struggles in other countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America, Louie said. The centerhas members who are "basically people who are trying to figure out ways, even though we are working in different communities, how could we come together across racial lines and to combine academicand . research work people are doing and organize it in the community," Louie said. Louie alsoemphasized that women can learn from the different movements and struggles, such as emphasis onthe environment and spirituality in the Native American Movement. "One thing we have to do aswomen is build those bridges and learn from each other and share with each other," Louie said. "Therehas been too much of a separation between with what is going on in universities and what is going on inthe community." Identity, from page 1 United States" is a large issue. "There are conflicts due to thegeneration gap," said Chan, a student at Seattle University. Chan said many of the pressures ondaughters come from their families. The daughters are to assume their rightful places within the family:to clean, cook and baby-sit â€” the old tradition style, she said. Having immigrated from Cambodia in1979 with her family, Chan said, "Many parents fear that we will turn our backs on our culture, who weare and where we came from." But, she mentioned, after entering college, she has become closer toher culture. Both Praseuthsy and Chan attended Raymond High School, a predominantly Caucasianschool, where they formed a support group for fellow female Asian students. "Each student hasissues," Chan said, adding, "the group gives those students a safe place to go to discuss the issuesthey are dealing with so they don't feel alone." "Many of the pressures push these young women intodropping out of school, getting married, or pregnant," she said. Also on the panel was Star Rush,who recently received her master's degree in English from Western. Her presentation centered aroundher thesis titled "Reconciliation; Sp(l)itting Image: A Memoir of a Vietnamese American Girlhood." Herstory dealt with the inner turmoil of being Vietnamese in America. "I feel like an American most of thetime, and the only reminder that I'm not is the alien registration card that I keep in my wallet betweenmy bank ATM and Visa card," Rush recited from her thesis. Rush spoke passionately about growingup in the United States. She entered the United States at the age of 5 with her Caucasian father andVietnamese mother during the Vietnam War. "If I do not speak, if I do not remind myself and others ofthis difference, it is too easy to disappear here, too easy to let circumstance and habit erase a partof me," she read. "I am nagged by something much deeper than my looks or my habits. Who I am runsdeeper than the color of my skin or the accent of my speech or the faint asstiredness of my memory. Itruns in my blood," she continued. Cynthia Tompkins, the final panel member, is a Women's Studiesprofessor from Arizona University. She asked the question, "How do you negotiate all of thedifferences to form an organization which is supposed to create a fair education for everyone?" Rushresponded with reference to English courses in some community colleges: "There is a segregation!" Students have to make a choice as to which English classes they would take â€” either a multicultural study or a predominantly (white) literature course, she said. "Most people select a class to see-themselves. That's why we read â€” to find ourselves ... people like us!" Rush said. Therefore, asegregation occurs because no one is getting a combined education of all ethnic views. AuthenticMexican Grill Take Out 360-714-9426 300 N.

Thedevelopment will be located on the site of the former Donovan Farm and will accommodate 32 single-family homes that will be clustered in triplexes and duplexes around a shared common house, said Kate Nichols, spokesperson for Bellingham Cohousing. Nichols explained that the cohousing concept isdifferent from a gated community or apartment complex because of the ideology behind thedevelopment. "It's resident driven; we make the decisions," Nichols said. "It requires a lot ofcommitment and participation." "It's an intentional community; people go into it with the idea that therewill be some sort of support from other people," she said. The group got its start about 10 years ago,Nichols said, and was inspired by cohousing developments in both Denmark and the United States.Plans for actual development have accelerated with the September purchase of the nearly six-acreDonovan building site. "We've had to change gears and organize more as a company and a business toget it developed," Nichols said. "We've just come to that point." As a result of the project acceleration,the group has recently hired Sehome Planning and Engineering, Inc. Terry Galvin, owner of thecompany, will be the project manager for the cohousing development. "Hiring Terry will have an impactin that he has the experience we need to move the project forward," Nichols explained. "It's a $4 millionproject, and none of us have done anything like it; we need that kind of professional guidance andexperience." Galvin said he is responsible for hiring engineers, landscapers and architects, in addition to working with the city to get the necessary permits for the development. "We literally manage the projectand help ensure the finances are in place and "It's a step up; we're not just building homes, butcommunity.. Terry Galvin Sehome Planning and Engineering, Inc. that the project gets built in a waythat's consistent with cohousing ideals," Galvin said. So far, about 12 families are involved with theproject, Nichols said. Seven are developing members, who each invested $20,000 in the project. Adeveloping member joining now would give $2,500. They also have five associate members,distinguished by their initial down payment of $150 each. These members receive reading materials tobecome informed about the project, while developing members become part of the business that wasformed to purchase the property. Nichols said that, regardless of membership level, each member gets a voice in the consensus decision-making format used by the group. "Participation is voluntary," Nichols said. "Someone signs and says, 'Yes, I will participate,' but the level of participation is up to them."Nichols said the consensus decisionmaking process usually involves a discussion of writtenproposals for group action and requires getting the agreement of the whole group before any action istaken. "In a sense, it's made me look at creative ways to have people in my life that I wouldn't normally," Nichols reflected. "It's a time to get really creative and look for ways to do things to meet people'sneeds." The project is designed with several unique features: parking will be on the perimeter of thecomplex to cut down on through traffic, and pedestrian pathways will provide access to homes andshared areas. "The big thing is that we will be building on less land," Nichols said. "It's not going to belike some subdivisions, where you drive in and all you see is asphalt." The triplexes and duplexes willbe built to simulate the appearance of a large single-family residence with a terrace or porch/Nicholsexplained. The shared common house will be the center of the community cluster, providing a kitchen for preparing shared meals several times per week and providing a place for meetings and groupgatherings. Shared work areas are also being considered in the plans, include a sewing room/a shop,a craft room, playground and garden, Nichols said. Front/Jesse Kinsman Kathleen Heft, spokespersonfor Bellingham Cohousing, original member Kate Nichols and her daughter Emily look over the plans forthe project. The Bellingham group is also concerned with taking measures to make less of anenvironmental impact, which means not building on two acres of the site that have been designated aswetlands. "There was another subdivision planned for this property," Nichols said. "It would've moved into the wetlands. "We're concerned about preserving the wetlands and being good stewards to the creek,"she said. Nichols explained that the clustered housing also helps conserve resources by cutting downon the number of outside walls a family has to heat. She also said the group will use more native plantsfor landscaping, with less lawn, and will preserve the older trees on the property. "It's the nature ofcohousing developments that they share a number of things â€” for instance, lawnmowers," Galvinexplained. "All that stuff, that in itself reduces the amount of consumption. I think that's a big componentof the cohousing concept." The group is also interested in using energy-efficient building materials,Galvin said. This could include readily available materials, such as sand, gravel and concrete, insteadof lumber. However, he also said these materials are in less demand than lumber and, therefore, moreexpensive. "In the short run, it's more expensive," Galvin noted. "The initial cost for material will behigher. Over the long run, it will save energy and provide a more maintenance- free development." "This isn't low income by any stretch, but the community amenities it provides far outweigh the cost itrepresents," he said. Nichols is a student and single mother of one 4-year-old daughter, Emily. "It'sreally a safer environment in the sense that there's more people looking out for the children, and peopleknow the children," Nichols said. "That also includes the elderly, or if someone gets sick or goes onvacation." When asked if cohousing might become the preferred building practice in the future, Nicholsresponded, "I don't know if it will ever become mainstream, but I think it will definitely make an impact."There is already a diversity of different living modes and habitats," Galvin said. "There are single-familyhomes, multi family homes, apartments, townhouses and trailer parks :â€” a number of ways peoplelive. This is another one â€” it's a natural progression to satisfy the human needs associated withcommunity and family." "It's a step up; we're not just building homes, but community that facilitatesgatherings, sharing and shared responsibility. It's a solid addition to what presently exists in thecommunity." "It's one of those things whose time has come â€” I feel very fortunate to work on a projectthat's so creative." WM AVAILABLE History 112, Intro, to West.

Last Monday, the Department of Justice filed what may be the largest and most far-reaching lawsuit ever filedagainst a company using the century-old Sherman anti-trust laws. Twenty states immediately followedsuit, filing their own anti-trust suits against the software giant. The Justice Department and the statescontend Microsoft is violating an agreement with the federal government made in 1994, stipulatingthat Microsoft is not to bundle its products together, something the company is doing by integratingits Internet Explorer web browser into its new Windows '98 operating system. More seriously forMicrosoft, the lawsuits contend the company has a monopoly in the software industry. But what makesthe lawsuits and surrounding issues so interesting are the close ties-between Justice Departmentinvestigation and Microsoft's competitors. Many Microsoft supporters have contended that the suitsare at the behest of competitors who simply can't keep up with Microsoft. Other issues are involvedwith the lawsuits, such as whether or not Justice Department and the Quiet effectiveness of formerteacher honored sS^^^HiiiiiliiSiiMiMli ed Thursday, May 28/at Sacred K ^ g r a c ^ Western's ca^npusfrom 1965 to 1989.

He was the J WE, from page 1 beauty of it: There's a lot of classes with term papers now, but if a professor introduces a term paper and requires a draft before it's (the paper's) final, itbecomes a writing proficiency course." Under the proposed plan, classes that are currently referred to as"writing proficiency classes" would be writing unit classes, Werder said. She said the proposal wouldallow classes currently requiring writing instruction to count toward writing credits, as well as the benefit of giving practice in writing itself. The ACC has not yet acted upon the writing units proposal, said SteveRoss, chair of the ACC "One proposal has been drafted and others may be put forward next year," hesaid. Philosophy Professor Tom Downing, a member of the ACC, said, "The writing units proposal is astrong possibility for replacing the writing proficiency course, but nothing formal has come to us (theACC) yet." "Neither the ACC nor the Faculty Senate was addressing specific details of the proposal inorder to act quickly and avoid unnecessary test-taking this summer," Werder said. "There are still a lot of questions to be answered about the proposal," she said.."How much writing instruction will constitutethese writing units is the key question for the interim year." The EWC will continue working on thewriting units proposal throughout next year and then return the proposal to the ACC, which will send it tothe senate if approved, Downing said. The ACC will also be working on details of a motion the committeepassed May 26 to require a second required writing course in the GURs, he said. "The second requiredwriting course will catch us up with other state schools; the writing units will actually be over and aboveGURs," Werder said. "It's just a lot better," Hansen said. "If you have this (writing instruction) inseveral classes, it should improve writing ability." states can prove Microsoft qualifies as a monopolyunder the Sherman laws. The 100-year-old laws lay out a very complicated formula for determining amonopoly. Other business groups and free-market advocates have also contended the government isoverstepping its Jbounds and punishing MicfosOftsimpiy for being the dominantcompetitor; The lawand court standards that dictate the definition of a monopoly are murky. The courts need to decidewhether Microsoft is a benign, legal monopoly or an anti-competitive giant that actively quashescompetition through its business practices, or if it's just another software company. Microsoft is a bigcompany with a huge portion of the software market share. But is it a monopoly? Microsoft says no.The company has always contended its dominance in the ever-evolving technology field could crumblein an instant. Microsoft CEO Bill Gates has said numerous times that Microsoft's dominance in can betoppled if a newer technology comes out that could replace PC operating systems. Java by SunMicrosystems is one such technology that runs programs straight off the Internet without an operatingsystem. Netscape is also in the developing stages of a similar technology. But, it is difficult to say if orwhen those technologies may be widely used and accepted by consumers. If Microsoft is judged amonopoly, the next step is to see if it is an anti-competitive monopoly. This is where the issue getsreally cloudy. The court will have to consider how much control Microsoft has over its customers, ifany, and whether it's in business deals with large companies or their pricing tactics for consumersoftware. The courts will also have to decide if Microsoft uses price gouging to quell other competitors. A recent example that could be used in proving this is Microsoft's free web browser offer. The JusticeDepartment could contend that courtesy of the History of Computing web page Microsoft is in a uniqueposition Microsoft owner, Bill Gates to do this because it has other products it sells for profit, whereasNetscape's profits come from selling its browser. The next installment will explore the ramification forboth Microsoft and the business world if the Justice Department wins this case. â€¢â€¢â€¢ pargt;erplan again at 4 p.m. Monday at the faculty senate meeting.

They see the strobe of lights flashing pure, blinding white and fire red even withtheir eyes closed. Their hearts race as the adrenaline pulses through their veins, and they wonder if theywill return. These unsung heroes are firefighters, but they don't get paid to risk their lives. It's purely apassion driven from inside â€” something that mere words just can't explain. They are volunteerfirefighters, and nothing in this world could satisfy them more. "It's a passion," says Jerry Donnelly, firelieutenant at Fire District 8, Station 5. Lt. Donnelly joined the Navy to become a paramedic and enlisted for seven years, also serving on the Navy's local fire brigade. Donnelly's passion was for fire, and hestarted the resident program on the Lummi Indian Reservation. The resident program on Lummi Island,called "Marietta" by Fire District 8, is the only full residence program in Whatcom County. Volunteerfirefighters are given free room and board to live at the station and respond to emergency calls throughout the day. Residents cook their own.meals, have their own rooms and have fire station duties. These duties include cleaning bathrooms, kitchen, living areas, and washing fire trucks and emergency vehicles..During two years without resident fire fighters, Donnelly had to fight several fires on his own. Due to poorweather conditions, back-up was slow to respond the calls, and Donnelly was becoming desperate forvolunteers. - * Finally, recruits began to show up at Donnelly's resident station. The first recruit .tomove out to the station was Robert. Terpsma. He is a certified Emergency Medical. Technician and.also works at St. Joseph Hospital as a security guard. lt;â€¢ ... _;â€¢ , "People see the lights and hearthe sirens but don't see everything that goes into being a firefighter," Terpsma said, ;,; .... ,,: ..-gt;gt;:â€¢ lt; - -â€¢ Volunteer firefighters are scheduled for two or three 24-hour shifts per week,sometimes rnpre, on top pf their current "What, this means is tha.tl.may, have, just worked a. 14-hourshift at the hospital and then will need to go to; the-station to-be on call Tor another 24 hours,"-Terpsmasaid. "But - and none of the pay the thrill and passion of it all is worth it." Fire District 8 is now filled withresidents who are willing to donate their time and energy for other people's well-being. Whatcom County has 800 firefighters^ but only 125 of the firefighters are paid. The remaining 675 firefighters are volunteers.The districts with volunteers, both full-time and part-time, respond to many of the emergencies first.Fully funded fire districts, like Bellingham's, will always be the first to arrive at calls in their areas. But inoutlying areas of Whatcom County, many of the districts are either fully volunteer or partially volunteer,and they are the first to respond to emergency call. Many of the volunteer districts are miles apart, sowhen dispatch puts a call through to the fire stations, it goes to all the stations until someoneresponds to a call. "Sometimes it can take up to 20 minutes before someone shows up; if you have hada heart-attack, that's your death sentence," said lieutenant Donnelly. "Sometimes it's really tough," saidLt. Donnelly. "People expect to get a fully funded fire department when they dial 911 for theiremergencies." Donnelly went on to explain that sometimes volunteer districts have to drive up to 22miles to respond to an emergency call. "By the time we arrive the damage is already done in thesecases â€” people WÂ®* can't understand why we couldn't be there sooner," Donnelly said. "That'swhen we have to explain that we are a volunteer district and we are trying our best to serve thecommunity." This type of situation doesn't happen on a regular basis, but it does still happen with inour community, Donnelly Volunteer firefighters receive a small -amount of gratitude; they are given $5 forevery call they respond to and $6 to keep up with their ongoing training. Kim Keck, administrativeassistant at Whatcom County Fire District 7, said a law was passed.in October of 1997, that insuresthat if a volunteer firefighter dies ihthe line of duty, his b'eneficia'ries'wiil receive $150,000 forcompensation. -â€¢ ; â€¢ '" - Volunteer fighters risk their lives each day for a pay approachingminimum wage. â€¢ :â€¢"'â€¢â€¢â€¢ â€¢ "viDEO m..

Each boat carried a team two students who carefullymaneuvered their boats around each other, adjusting the sails as they lined up in starting position. Thebeginning sailing class was practicing its first race. Hearing the shrill cry of the instructor's voicecrackling through a megaphone, the students released their boats and flew over the shimmering watertoward their destination, with their sails stretched tightly against the power of the wind. The draw ofsailing "is the wind blowing fretfully on the face and through the hair," said Miranda Seeton. "I think it'sjust fun speeding over the waves, when you are almost tipping and almost out of control," Seeton said."It's that excitement, that possibility of sailing on the edge." Seeton is a beginning sailing student thisquarter. "I've grown up on the lake, and I love the water," she said. "I thought it would be a good class totake during the afternoon to take a break from the campus scene; get out on the water and have a goodtime," she said. In one quarter, students learn the basics of sailing and receive certification by theAmerican Sailing Association. Several facilities are available for Western students interested in sailing. If students don't know how to sail, several courses are offered at Western. In the physical education curriculum, classes range from beginning sailing to instruction sailing and cost $35 per person.Keelboat lessons in Bellingham Bay are also available. Private lessons, two-hour sessions for fourdays, are offered for $35 by instructors at Lakewood on Lake Whatcom. Western student K.C.

"As everyone is getting out on the water, it's good time for me to spendsome one-one-one time with them, trying to take them to the level of perfection," he said. "Thebetter they get now, the better they can learn real tacking in sssssr^w^ advanced courses." Bodily isalso captain of the Western sailing team. The team welcomes anyone who is interested in sailing,experienced or not. The sailing team begins recruiting prospective students at the start of fall quarter.Bodily gives introductory lectures at the beginning of the season, and beginning sailors ask moreexperienced team members questions as they learn. Certified sailors may rent sailing craft fromWestern. Lakewood houses more than 50 different watercraft for student use. Anyone with campusidentification from Western, Northwest Indian College and Whatcom Community College can rent asailboat for a day, Jeff Davis said. Prices range from $2 for an Alpha/Laser sailing craft and $3 for the two keelboats, Victory 21 and Pearson 23. "But, for the sailing equipment, you do have to know how to sail and have to take an orientation and see how things are run and the parts of the boats," Davis said."There are a lot of things that need to be assembled." Orientations are offered Friday, Saturday andSunday at anytime and last about 45 minutes. "It gives people a chance to see where everything isand do a demonstration of basic skill," Davis said. Students may also find outside instruction at localsailing schools in Bellingham. Private sailing schools, such as the VMG Boating Northwest SailingSchool at Bell-haven Charters and San Seen Juan Sailing School, offer several different courses forbeginning sailors and certification by the ASA. Bellhaven Charters is located in the Squalicum HarborMall. It is owned by Russ Whitten and Western alum Tom Krabbenhoft. He was also a Western sailinginstructor and sailing team member. Bellhaven Charters offers the sailshare program. Members pay lowmonthly dues to enjoy unlimited day sailing on a 1998 36- foot-long Catalina. "It helps people get access to larger islands affordably," Krabbenhoft said. The school offers a wide range of courses for beginning and advanced sailing, with a fleet of 12 boats. The school emphasizes the utilization of peer review,feedback and critique in their teaching techniques. "Everybody gets to practice their skills withanchoring and things like that," Jackie Goodsir, charter manager, said. Standard courses include aweekend level-one course in basic keelboat sailing, which teaches basic skills such as sailingterminology, theory, docking and mooring, per-son- overboard recovery and required safetyequipment. ppii..Â» ovwnS T h e ^ ^ f()r t Re l t / A , e course is $149, with additional textbook,materials and certification costs.

The San Juan Sailing School also has a sailingclub, where members may charter a boat for day sailing at any time and receive discounts. "We aremaking Western a member of our sailing club, meaning students will get discounts for our lessons," hesaid. Students can also receive a discount when chartering boats.

The San Juan Sailing School is also located in Squalicum Harbor and offers similar courses, using the bay and the islands as its classroom with a fleet of 15 boats. "The nice thing about taking sailinglessons in the San Juan Islands is if s a very different sailing experience," said Danielle Korneolis,Western junior and San Juan Sailing School instructor. "You really have to learn about navigation hereand your tides and currents. You've got a lot of current to deal with, different winds and rocks."

She is young and seems a little bit shy. At first glance, it issurprising to find, this young Western graduate in her chosen career. But her quiet demeanor fails to hide the confidence that breaks through her eyes, but soon it becomes apparent that she is perfectlysuited to serve and protect the campus community as a University Police officer. University Policewelcomed Officer Cari Scholl, who graduated from the Washington State Basic Law EnforcementAcademy, into the department in early February. Officer Scholl is one of many new additions to thedepartment, including recent academy graduate Lisa Aiumu; full-time, temporary officer Krista Jeret-zky; and two former University Police officers, officers Kevin Moyes and officer Steve Gatterman,who were rehired on a part-time basis, while continuing to work for the Whatcom County Sheriff'sDepartment. "It's rewarding, to see someone: cpme up through the ranks as a greencoat and then makea career of this," acting Chief Dave Doughty commented. The University Police Department has a longhistory of employing former greencoats. Doughty himself served his "time in green" from 1969 to 1973.Currently, the department employs four former greencoats: one sergeant and three officers. Schollbegan working as a greencoat in September 1996 and graduated from Western in June of 1997 with adegree in social psychology. She attributes her interest in law enforcement to former University PoliceSgt. Dave Harris. "I didn't really figure it out until I started working here," Scholl said. "I'm not going to be a huge iron fist, but I'm also not going to let anything get out of hand." Cari Scholl University PoliceOfficer "When I started actually thini ing about it and asking que! tions, he showed a lot of interes andconfidence in me and d everything he could to help through â€” showed me the pos negative." Academy life, the stress and disciplined setting often takes new recruits by surprise. It can make or break anofficer, but Scholl was prepared. "It didn't take me long to adjust to the para-military setting because Ihad friends who let me know what to expect, and the staff was very clear about what they wanted us todo and how to do it," Scholl said. "If you don't make it through that, you're gone." Out of a class of 30,two people didn't complete academy. Doughty compared the three months of academy to anacademic quarter, " but not as slow-paced as college. It is a full eight hours completely packedwith instruction, plus outside time." A typical day in the academy began when Scholl woke at 5 a.m.By 6 a.m., she was beginning the 65-mile commute to Everett, arriving at 7 a.m. At 7:30, allrecruits were inspected in uniform. "In inspection, if you forgot your nametag or had lint on your uritformor sbmetximg like that, you'd have to write in a disciplinary memo, 'This recruit will never forget theirnametag again' and name the reason why. They were very, very picky," she said. After inspection, therecruits saluted the flag and did push-ups," ... to get the blood going. The first week, we did over 100 aday. If we really screwed up, it was 200," Scholl remembered. "If one person messed up, was late, forgot something, the whole class would get push-ups. They were the ultimate punishment." The recruitsattended classes for the remainder of the day. "m the morning, for instance, we'd have a four-hour blockof criminal law; Protect then the afternoon would be l four-air block criminal on," she said. ForScholl, the highlights of academy were defensive tactics, emergency vehicle operations and control, and firearm training: " ... the hands-on instruction â€” the stuff we actually got to go out and do," shesaid. Fellow recrui Aiumu ranked the physical training as her favorite part of academy. "We had a greatdeal of defensive tactics training, as well as running as a class," said Aiumu. "I'm in better physicalshape now than I have been in years, and I'm very motivated to keep it up." "For the most part, we hadno life, though," said Scholl. "I mean, we had weekends off, but we had tests at least once a week. Itwas just like college, with midterms and finals and quizzes and papers on top of the disciplinarymemos," she said. "The standards are purposely set very, very high because that contributes tothe whole experience of being able to handle any kind of stress," Scholl said. Scholl is making herway through a 14-week field-training program, in which she will face daily evaluations on 32 different job aspects, ranging from her appearance, to relationships with other officers and citizens.

"(The race is)frustrating when there is no wind," Chamness said. "You spend a lot of time watching the water." Lastyear, the same 100-mile race took 18 hours, but. this year, it took more than 29 because of low winds,he said. The racers began in Victoria, British Columbia, sailed to Cape Flattery and returned to Victoriafor the all-day and all-night competition. "(The race) was slow but comfortable," Chamness said.The Swiftsure race is an endurance race, focusing on how long a team can race instead of how fast, hesaid. The race began early Saturday morning and ended Sunday afternoon. The nine crew membersrotated between different.positions on the boat because of the length of the race, Chamness said. Theyalso rotated sleeping. "'â€¢:''â€¢' * -;,. ' "I got about two hours ofsleep total," he said.

It's not easy knowing mysmallest infraction â€” like leaving the toilet seat up â€” could send a foot to my face faster than DennisRodman changes his hair color. Emily is a blue belt in Tae Kwon Do. When we met, she was a T.A. forthe beginning martial arts class at Western. I wanted to learn about the sport, but was too proud to looklike a fool in front of her. Now that she's not involved in the class, I get to look like a fool in front of 35other students. We practice our kicks, our punches and â€” most importantly â€” our yelling. TaeKwon Do is a Korean fighting form that consists largely of kicking and yelling. 1 figure the '... suitedup, we look like crosses between the Pillsbury Dough-back and a halfback? I admit I have learned a bit. In one session, I learned that if an opponent connects with an apchagi (front kick), I'm likely to respondwith an upchuck-ee (a less-graceful, yet more powerful move). Once these basics are mastered (e.g. wewere able to do them once without falling over), we moved on to sparring. This isn't quite "MortalKombat." No, we buried ourselves beneath chest pads, and forearm and shin guards. In addition, we gotfoam-filled helmets that resembled slightly aged jack-o'- lanterns. By the time we were appropriatelysuited up, we looked like crosses between the Pillsbury Doughboy and a Mighty Morphin' Power Ranger. Unfortunately, my fighting technique is more on the doughboy side. I have the yelling part down (bring on Tom Shane!), but sounds often scare opponents off my kicks make me more a danger before theyeven get a chance to b O V a n d B.

It's a great class; whereelse are you encouraged to don wacky outfits and beat your friends silly? (Okay, but you don't receivecollege credit for playing on "American Gladiators.") The biggest hurdle in this class is learning theKorean terms. These terms.actually correspond to things we do. A bandal chagi is a low roundhousekick, and a yeop chagi is a side kick. How I am going to remember these terms if I can't even rememberthe difference between a full-floor, only to come crashing down on the wooden planks of Carver Gym C.And on Thursday, while sparring, I jammed my toe while kicking an opponent. Obviously I'm not going tohold my own against my girlfriend in this fashion. So I think I'll try a new approach: Tae Kwon Ho Ho Ho.Instead of attempting to defeat her, I'll simply make myself look so ridiculous that Emily will be rolling onthe floor in laughter. And while she's doing that, I'll put the toilet seat back down.

The final game finished 11-8 in favor of the seasoned Pandas; the low-seeded Phundogs came back from an 8-1 halftime deficit on the field behind the Chemistry building onSunday. Hawkins DeFrance^ Biochemistry major and Phundog, said fatigue may have been a factor inthe loss. "We had three games before this one; they had a bye. We were totally tired," DeFrance said.In addition, most Phundogs had never played Ultimate Frisbee before this season. The tournament wassingle-elimination; six of eight Frisbee teams competed in the nail-biting fight for honor, pride and T-shirts. "It got pretty exciting at-the end; they scored six straight points in the last five minutes, so theygave us a scare. They really got it together," Front/Tom Degan A Phundog player nabs the Frisbee inPullin' Pandas' win. said Greg Piper, a senior Elementary Education major. In a game similar to soccerand football in passing strategies, the Pullin' Pandas are prolific at their craft. They have a seriouspractice regimen and dedicated players. Daryl Kaiser, a senior at Western, felt the sting of playingagainst tough Ultimate Frisbee veterans. "It was all right; they were pretty snotty when we played ...The Pandas play all-year round," Kaiser said. "They would run up the score. They're hard-core; they playcity tournaments and stuff." Greg Piper expounded on the ferocity of the Pandas' regimen. "We play the Bellingham team at the Belling-ham Technical College three times a week, so we get good practice. Not to sound cynical, but if s a lower level of play at (Western). A lot of people don't know all the rules, orget the gist of what the game's all about." Piper said some members of the Pandas plan to form anUltimate Frisbee club team next year at Western, which would play teams such as University ofWashington, Whitman College and many Oregon schools. The players' love of Frisbee is what makesthis tournament happen. Players call their own fouls and must rely on each other's integrity. "There'sno referee; the players officiate the game. The level of fun depends on the sportsmanship of theplayers," senior Phundog Peter Nelson said. Anthony-Cahill, a chemistry professor at Western, is the captain of the Phundogs. "I think it went fine, essentially without help of the intramural recreationoffice. Pullin' Pandas are clearly in a league by themselves." Both teams were complimentary of each others' talents and congratulated each other when it was over. Thus ends another chapter ofintramural drama â€¢â€” Ultimate Frisbee style. Sprinkles ecli Front/Tom Degan A teammatewatches as a player uses his head to help capture the title. By Catherine Anderson The Western FrontCoed intramural soccer playoffs ended this Sunday with a new bunch of happy T-shirt recipients: theSprinkles. The intramural T-shirt, a coveted item and the mark of a true champion, came to this groupafter most of its players devoted three to four years to Western's intramural program. "I worked hard forthree years and made it to the playoffs every time," Sprinkles captain Scott Numata said. "But Iremained T-shirtless until the last quarter of my college career!" The Sprinkles went 3-2 in regularseason and 3-0 in playoffs before taking the championship game Sunday against the Sundogs. "Wegot off to a great start in the first three games," Numata said. "We lost our edge in the last two games,but then we pulled it together in the playoffs; our defense stepped it up, and we didn't allow any goals."Most of the Sprinkles had played together in the fall, where they took a second-place finish. This spring,with a few new additions, the team saw it through. "It was Numata's outstanding coaching that led usto the championship," Sprinkle Matt Johnson said. "We went from an offensive-minded team, to adefense-minded team; he knows what he's talking about." The Sundogs, competing with only nineplayers, lost to the Sprinkles with a final score of 2-0. "It's a damper on the win," Shannon Scott said."But, I think we would have still beat them." The hard-earned win came in the nick of time for manySprinkles; most are nearing graduation, and none had conquered the intramural championships beforelast Sunday. "For four years, I've been busting my ass, and finally I get a ... T-shirt!" Johnson said. "Ihonestly feel like never wearing it, framing it and showing it to my grandchildren because it took me fouryears to get it!" Scott said. Western hosts Frisbee golf tourney By Erika Ahlstrom The Western FrontFrisbees whizzed through the air all over campus Sunday afternoon as disc golfers competed inWestern's first official disc golf tournament. Western senior Erik Drummond won first place, WhatcomCommunity College student Jon Streeter finished second and Western junior Chris Fabry finished third."It was a great course (because of) the trees and the landscape," said Drummond, organizer of thetournament and avid disc golfer of 10 years. "I thought the other golfers did well. Fun was the key â€”everyone had fun, I know that." Disc golfers teed-off at 1 p.m., throwing their discs from Edens Southto a basket near Old Main. The course consisted of nine baskets constructed by Streeter, and nineobjects, including various sculptures around campus. Although nine people showed up for thetournament, only seven officially competed. More would have competed, but didn't because they werereluctant to pay the $5 entry fee, Drummond said. "We would have liked to see more people. Frisbeegolfers don't like to spend money," Drummond said, adding that the disc golf course at Cornwall Park isfree and open to the public. "Disc golf is really new in Bellingham. The sport grows by word of mouth,"he said. "We want positive exposure. Those baskets are here and we need to use them â€” theyshouldn't sit locked in a garage." In two small groups, the disc golfers took turns at each hole. Manysaid the most difficult hole was number nine, where golfers had to throw their discs from the top of thestairs by the Environmental Studies Center, to the middle of the circular rock sculpture near FairhavenCollege. "(Hole nine) was pretty hairy," said Western senior Thomas Hayse, who finished sixth in thetournament. "I had to crawl into the blackberry bushes to get my Frisbee." Competitors said the windand numerous pedestrians made the course challenging. The wind often blew against the discs andknocked them over, Drummond said. "The course was really unfamiliar," Hayse said. "It was fun to havethe challenge of doing something new." "The course was very difficult â€” I just went for it, " saidWestern sophomore Bryan Decker, a beginning disc golfer. "There were some amazingly great players.There were some people throwing birdies on a regular basis." A strong, steady, level throw is importantin disc golf, Decker said. It helped to carefully judge the distance for each throw, especially for some ofthe shorter holes, in order to avoid overthrowing, Decker said. "It's always fun to play a game of golf.I'm happy to have taken third place," Fabry said. "It was a new course; it was kind of funky." "I hope that Western establishes a permanent course," Fabry said. "It'd be a benefit to disc golf enthusiasts. It's cheap, it's fun, it's a good excuse to get out and throw the disc with friends."

Maybe it was all the knot tying, or maybe itwas the cheesy outfits, but as I grew up, something about the Boy Scouts didn't seem right to me. Afterhearing of a recent California Supreme Court decision, all my questions were answered. The Californiacourt decided the Boy Scouts of America is well within the confines of the law when it excludes atheists,agnostics and homosexuals from its canoeing, campfires and sewing. I give kudos to the California courtfor upholding a perfectly rea-. sonable principle: The government has no business dealing with theinklings of private industry. As long as the kids aren't exploited for labor reasons or sold on the blackmarket, the state can stick its nose somewhere else. . But I raise a curious brow to those in the BSAwho think that such exclusions could benefit the kids in their organization in any way. Teaching kids how to live, successfully with nature is good. Teaching kids how to accomplish basic survival tasks and howto take care of themselves in the wilderness is good. But teaching kids any kind of social biaswhatsoever perpetuates what civil humans have been trying to correct for centuries. What is littleChristian Jimmy supposed to do when his best friend, little Taoist Chong, is booted from his troopbecause Chong won't pledge allegiance to the Christian deity? , . What is little Christian Jimmysupposed to do when his neighbor, little Moslem Pasha, gets canned because Pasha prays towardMecca several times daily? Is little Jimmy going to believe the pathetic excuses his troop leaders willgive him when he asks why Chong and Pasha can't be with him, or is little Jimmy going to begin to feelthat these people who are in one way or another different from him have something inher-i ently wrongwith them? Little Jimmy;wasn't born a bigot. All that was on Jimmy's mind when he popped out of hismother's womb was crying, sucking arid pooping. As Jimmy aged, his intelligence grew. He learned totalk, to walk and hopefully to control his bodily functions. Also, as he grew, someone taught him thatdifferences can be a bad thing, and Jimmy was introduced to bigotry. If this person was someone Jimmylooked up to, someone whose opinions Jimmy valued, such as a parent, relative, family friend or scoutleader, Jimmy would be inclined to believe what he was taught. : As Jimmy went through school andhopefully opened his mind to new ideas and perspectives, he began to shed some of his prejudicedteachings. But no matter how much shedding Jimmy does, he will never be able to completely unlearnthe lessons dumped on him when he was so young and so terribly naive. The Boy Scouts isn't a badorganization. Rather, it is a wonderful organization, cheesy outfits and all. It teaches kids wonderfullessons about life, nature and working together. But if the kids are taught that only a specific type ofperson is good enough to work alongside them, something needs to be changed. Camping is good, butbigotry is so, so wrong. â€” David Plakos, Managing Editor The Western Front Editor Kristen T.

Campus needsto celebrate voices, not 'tokens' Samantha Tretheway COMMENTARY , Multicultural education is theinclusion of voices rather than the ghettoization of tokenism. Unfortunately, people of color are tokenized at Western and are not included in traditional classes at Western. : Instead, they are marginalized intoclasses such as Minority Literature and African American Literature. Not only do ghettos exist, but theyare also encouraged by the dominant society as a form of pacification. Ghettoization of education ismuch like the inner-city ghettos â€” only people whose lives are immediately connected with the ghettowant to go back. Nobody has to go if they don't want to. This university requires students to have eightcredits of cultural studies. This is tok-enization. Women and people of color are not included in "normal"classes at Western but exist as required reading in a few classes. Last weekend, Provost RolandDeLorme officially opened Sisters of Color International, a conference hosted by Western. More than 100people heard DeLorme congratulate Western on its revolutionary approach to multicultural education. He especially touted the English Department, which was primarily British Literature and a bit of AmericanEnglish before Western's multicultural revolution. Out of 81 classes offered by the English Departmentlisted in the official timetable of classes for the 1997-98 school year, only five of those classes covernontraditional material. Multicultural education is not just a Western issue, but a national issue facingeducational institutions across the country. During Victor Lewis' workshop entitled "DismantlingRacism," which packed the Viking Union Main Lounge with more than 300 people, students talkedabout multiculturalism in education. In an educational environment such as Western, where people ofcolor are marginalized into areas of "diversity," whites can refuse to hear diverse voices they may notwant to hear and may disagree with by walking out of class when something upsets them. People ofcolor can't just walk away and hide from racism â€” white people exist everywhere on this campus. "Does an educational solution exist? After 17 years as a diversity trainer and anti-racist activist, Lewis didnot speak of an easy solution. However, he did ask people to introduce themselves to each other andtalk about how racism affects their lives. Maybe a simple introduction is the first step in working against racism. Wouldn't it be nice if our educational system provided a space where all voices could beheard and validated, and students could talk to each other about issues that mattered to everybody?What is education anyway â€” the perpetuation of white truth or the search for knowledge? DeLormeadmitted when he opened the SOCI conference that Western still has a long way to go towardmulticultural education. I'm glad he could admit that; unfortunately, he's resigning. "Maybe a simpleintroduction is the first step in working against racism." letters To the Editor: As a student at Western I look to the Front for news and information that affects me. With Western's diverse population, Iunderstand that it must be difficult for the editors and reporters of the Front to satisfy the interests of allWestern students. Unfortunately, this does not explain the Front's lack of coverage of Victor Lewis andhis presentations and workshops that were held on campus last week. Mr.. Lewis is a nationallyrecognized speaker on issues regarding racism, male violence, race relations and multi-ethnicity. Togive his presence here on campus such limited coverage, not to mention the fact that the coverage wasburied on page 6, is a disgrace not only to the hundreds of people who attended his workshops anddiscussions but also to Victor Lewis himself. I am sure that many found your wonderful stories on theoffensive street preacher, whom you felt warranted a full page, and the water committee to be of greatinterest. Yet, as a student that is interested in all Western has to offer, I was extremely disappointed inthe Front's poor decision to not give Victor Lewis and his important messages the full attention that theydeserved.

Another quarter's supply of ink is almost exhausted and this is another scribe's farewelL Another picture is added to the rogues' gallery of ex-columnists, and may our successors add humor, dignity, or pathos to the Viking pages. —W.S.N.S.— Abraham Lincoln has been found by psychoanalysts to. have had a Schizoid-manic personality because he is supposed to have liked obscene jokes. This discovery can't hurt his reputation. He was supposed to have been a Republican, too. ANNUAL EXERCISES TO FINISH TH1RIY-SEI FACULTY TO FORM AS ESCORTS FOR LINE OF MARCH OF GRADUATES. Local Orchestra DR. W. D. KHtKPATRICK WILL GIVE DIPLOMAS TO GROUP. —W.S.N.S.— Wouldn't it be interesting at this time of the year to look forward a bit and try to picture the graduates, say forty years from now. How many will still be teaching school? How many will have lost all expression except the "normal expression of a teacher"? Perhaps none of them will be teaching school forty years from now. We hope they wont for civilization's sake, and also their own. Just think how old-fashioned you'll be. —W.S.N.S.— A certain well known faculty member walked into The Viking office the other day .and said it was the messiest place in the school, and that she was ashamed to have any of her pupils come into such a place. If any of the teachers' offices had to serve as work room for twenty-five reporters it would probably be messy, too. —W.S.N.5.— Someone in this school has signed up for a six months school at a salary of $60 a month. Others have taken schools at $75 a month. And people talk about a standard of living. Even at $75 a month for a nine months school how long would it take a person to save enough money to go on to college. There may be hard times in other fields, but grammar grade teaching has degenerated from - a position to a job and almost to slave labor, for society still places strict qualifications, moral especially, on her school teachers. If anyone plans teaching school to make money he had better change his plans quickly. It perhaps is a good way to spend a genteel life of poverty, that is if you hold your job. But still can it even be an honorable profession at less than $75 a month? THE WEEK'S WORRIES Getting ready for final tests . . .

Piling through a lane formed by the faculty the graduates will march down the front walk in, the usual drill formation to music'played by the Normal School orchestra. The invocation will be delivered by the Rev. Dwight C. Smith. The audience will sing "America, the Beautiful," following which the commencement address will be given by Mr. Ben H. Kizer of Spokane, Washington. Two selections, "Red Rose" by Hadley and the Ballet Suite, "Rosa-i munde," by Schubert, will be played by the Normal School Orchestra. President C. H. Fisher will present the class and Dr. W. D. Kirk-patrick, chairman of the board of trustees, will present the diplomas. The delivering of the benediction by the Rev. Dwight C. Smith will close the exercises. In accordance with the traditions of the school, the graduating class will hold its customary rituals-tonight in the auditorium and on the campus at 8 o'clock. Opening the exercises with the singing of the Alma Mater by the class, the procedure will continue as in the past. Charles Dowell, president of the Sophomore class, will present the key and book to the Freshman class. Vernon ^Leatha, vice-president of the Freshmen, will accept the trust in behalf of his class. After the singing of "The White and Blue," the graduating class, led by the Sophomore executive council, will go in a procession to the stone. The placing of the numerals in the storied walk will be done by Charles Dowell. When the "Aspiration" has been given by Louise Oberleitner, the procession will continue to Edens Hall, where a reception will be given in honor of the class. GRADERS GIVE PLAY FANTASTIC DRAMA PRESENTED BY SEVENTH GRADE PUPILS. In their regular training school assembly this morning, the members of the Seventh Grade Drama Club gave an excellent presentation of "The Slippers of Cinderella," a fanr tastic play. All the seventh grade teachers and Mr. Victor H. Hoppe helped in the preparation of the play, which centered around the domestic affairs of an English family who suddenly found themselves no longer wealthy and in need of a means to support themselves. Through the magic aid of a fairy godmother the affairs of the household were put in such a state as to put the family in a panic before they can get back to their normal atmosphere before the long-expected very wealthy aunt of the family arrives. Myra, the eldest daughter in the family, is played by Edith Farlow. Polly and Dolly, the twins, are very well portrayed to the audience by Margaret Boyd and Vivian Clark. Jack Whitmore is Jimmy and Agatha-next-door is played by Lorraine Elliers. Margaret. Jane Bruff plays in the role of Jane, the maid. Betty Burnet is Elise and Jean Wellington is the Fairy Godmother. MORNING ASSEMBLY ANNUAL GLASS DAY PRESIDENT FISHER DISCUSSES - WORK ACCOMPLISHED BY THE CLASS SINCE ENTRY. CUP AWARDED KLIPSUN MAKES GAIN FINANCIAL REPORT S HOW S BOOK TO HAVE SLIGHT EDGE. ENROLLMENT OPENS SATURDAY. JUNE 13 ADVANCED COURSES OFFERED IN SEVERAL DEPARTMENTS. ELEVEN ARE PLACED APPOINTMENTS TO TEACHING POSITIONS ARE ANNOUNCED. Registration for the Summer quarter will be held all day Saturday, June 13. Classes will begin the following Monday at 8 a. m. Registration for the coming" quarter will be closed after the first-week of the opening of/the Summer session. Courses i offered are practically identical with those given in previous quarters with the exception that several special courses are offered to meet the needs of the advanced students. Many of the courses are offered for the first half of the quarter, and some for the second half to accommodate students who wish to enroll for shorter terms. Activity Fee Raised To counteract the recent budget cut, the student activity fee will be raised to eight dollars and the library, health and paper fee raised to three dollars, besides the regular course fees and laboratory fees. Several new courses will be offered. Three new Home Economics courses will be taught by Miss Frances Wiley. They are Home Economics 101, Foods and Cookery, a five credit course for students preparing to teach Home Economics. Home Economics 105 is a three As a fitting beginning to the annual Class Day activities, the regular Class Day assembly was held this morning at 11 o'clock in the auditorium. The presenting of the Freshman Cup by Charles Dowell to an outstanding Freshman student started the program. Vocal Solo Given It was followed by a vocal solo by Charlotte Glinesky, accompanied by Aileen Hurlbert. Miss Glinesky sang the charming little number called "Piper June," by Molly Carew. Under the direction of Miss Mildred Jewell of the Physical Education department, the graceful flowing "Valse" was performed by a group of students in the Natural Dancing class. Lois Hesseltine, Virginia Howell, Edythe Koski, Mary McDonald, Evelyn Montgomery, and Wilma Neeley interpreted the rhythm with a subtle grace. Farce Produced With his usual masterly technique and interpretation, Jack Schafer played the "Staccato Caprice" by Max Vogrich. gt; Presented by the Play Production class under the direction of Frances Benson, the amusing farce, "Lov» Is Like That," by Ryerson and Clemens, was a light touch which pleased the students. Frances Wilmarth, Effie Deighton, and Isabel Jenne were starred in the production. President Fisher Speaks As an appropriate climax to the assembly, President C. H. Fisher addressed the students with an inspiring discussion upon the work done by the graduating class. The main business at the -final meeting of the quarter of the Board of Control last night consisted of some back business and bits of rour tine work. Masters, Ruckmick, and O'Donnell were not in attendance. Klipsun Ahead Three of the items dealt with the recent publication of the Klipsun. Suzanne Waters was voted the salary due her for a year's work, which amounted to $100. David Morse reported that financially the book was successful and came out a few dollars ahead. His report was accepted and the Board also awarded him his official VW" pin for work as business manager of the book. Reports were given on the recent Men's Club Vodvil show, and Skot-heim's report on the "Pass Issuance," which wasv held over from the last meeting, was read and accepted. It supplants present Rec hour rules and divides them into clearer points, as well as providing for the carrying out of these. Mixer Planned It was announced that the Board will handle a mixer, to be held at the start of the summer quarter, with the date to be set later. o FOUR OTHER STUDENTS HAVE HIGH AVERAGES; GENERAL LEVEL GOOD. First Winner 130 GRADE POINTS AGGREGATED IN TWO QUARTERS. NICHE IN LIBRARY IN HONOR OF MISS EDENS PLANNED BY SPIESEKE FISHER ADDRESSES ALUMNI GATHERING STRESSES FUTURE GROWTH OF NORMAL AT ANNUAL EVENT. Pointing out some of the problems that the officials of the school have had to meet during the past year and following through with Wilfred Gunderson, modest, red* headed, studious Freshman youth, stepped forward in assembly this morning, his freckled face beaming happily as he heard the sentence: "First winner of the newly established Freshman Scholastic Cup." Four classmates of Gunderson's received honorable mention. In each case their scholastic standing was said to be unusually high. Four Get Mention These four are Paul Williams, president of the class, son of Professor Pelagius Williams and Whatcom high graduate; Dorothy Top, who hails from Everson, a Whatcom county town; Nellie Cox, another local student who completed her high school studies at Whatcom high; and Enid Rasmus, who is an put of the state resident, and who graduated from Astoria, Oregon, high school last spring. Gunderson's record is one of un-' usual high grades, and figured on the basis of the grade point system amounts to 130 points for the Fall and Winteii quarters studies.

This week, which marks the final issue of the spring quarter, finds The Viking down to six columns. Things are slack, news is hard to get, students are busy with exams, and the paper is appearing three days ahead of schedule to catch the Freshmen before they leave for home. Or maybe it is coming out short columned on account of the fact that the warm weather has rushed the summer season to a certain extent. (These facts ar^ published through the courtesy and cooperation of Mr. L. A. Kibbe, of the faculty, who is the proud owner of every annual published by this school, with the exception of that of 1901. Mr. Kibbe would be very interested in tracing the whereabouts of this one edition.) WE ADVISE, TEN There are over two hundred students finishing up this quarter tomorrow with the certified right to go out and accept jobs to teach youngsters in grade schools. They have had a taste of this work already in their practice teaching and yet there will be problems that will have to be met face to face, placing a responsibility on these people when they receive that diploma tomorrow morning. There are those that have proved themselves fully qualified to go out and take their first school, or school room, as it may be. Others do not appear quite as ready for the task as some of their fellow students, while still others, though we are not authorities on actual teaching fitness, are probably incapable of standing any strong headwinds in their flimsy built crafts. We do not draw our blunt cross-grain of this class, any class for that matter, for they are all divided between the excellent and the poor, by their actual ability to get grades or not to get them, but considerably on their faculties to harmonize with colleagues, strangers, enemies, or varied and new matters that present themselves daily. We are not throwing out innuendoes, nor attempting to "rub" any of those that we have so generally classed in the above part of the article, nor are we thinking of any one person. We do feel that we have a bit of advice that all will agree is logical and a bit that many can well afford to look themselves over carefully for and then inject it into the system if lacking, and if there to still bring in to bear weight—COUNT TO TEN BEFORE ACTING. Few phrases are more widely known, few simpler, few more logical, few more laughed at, and few better for the student starting out of this institution to teach for the first time. That division that includes those well qualified for teaching according to high scholastic marks will include one or two that will encounter trouble by failing to count off those digits and then to use the "Ol' bean next." It will apply to any other of the individual gradings we have slightly outlined here. Don't forget that there will be that student banked upon to make an absolute failure of his first year's work, that will get down and take himself seriously enough to use his energies intelligently and will do a real good job. We sincerely hope that all those graduating tomorrow will be able to land positions before the school year starts next fall. . It is a calamity for them to spend two years or more in preparing themselves for such work and then be unable to get employment. Many have borrowed money that must be paid back and have gone through all that study with the hopes and worries connected with the necessity of getting work. Times are hard, competition strong, nothing can be done to alter the layout at the present, but we can all hope for the better and not 'become too pessimistic and lay down our endeavors as hopeless. We have attempted to serve all under this regime of the paper during the past three quarters with a sheet that is a worthy organ of the school and one that has the best standards obtainable for the situation to be met with each issue. We have made friends and enemies—we expect that in the position we are in. We have listened—sometimes not patiently— to harsh and destructive criticisms, and we have been pleased and honored with handshakes for attributed good work. Modesty is nice, but "he who tooteth not his own horn the same thereof shall not be tooted." Consequently we are not committing error in our own minds by informing the students and faculty that we think we have given them a paper that is worthy of the place accorded in the school. We brought the school a first place from a national paper judging contest that had widespread competition, open to any. We have brought it news never given to the students previously until the following week. We have kept it to many high levels in departments that have been set for us by our predecessors. We have erred several times and have been willing to admit it and do everything in our power to smooth things over so that no harm would come to the school or the individual from it, while we also feel that we have received several knocks and slams entirely unjust and not due us. Through it all we have enjoyed ourselves and feel that the ultimate result is many friends worth having, and we wish to thank all those that have co-operated with us—impossible to do it alone. We hate to see many of the traditions started with the forming of the present graduating class into a freshman class, shattered, so we hand out our goodbye and best wishes now and don't forget—COUNT TO TEN AND THEN USE "THE OL' BEAN." We read where a California judge rules that anyone seeing liquor in a friend's house and failing to report it, is likewise a, law-breaker. Whether the situation is on the prohibition question or not, it will be a hard world to(get along in if everyone is ?fcutting the throat" of his neighbor.;: Revenge will reign supreme.^ ;-.-=^-..- ^?/V.': Would it hot be fascinating to go back thirty-one and a half years ago and witness, the formal opening of this State Normal school? Were You There? Taken from "The Normal Messenger," Fall quarter number of December, 1899, is the following excerpt: "The formal opening reception of the Normal school was held on the evening of October 28. The board of trustees, the faculty and the students received their invited guests, who included the citizens of New Whatcom and all those interested in the building, which was elaborately decorated for the occasion. Among the distinguished guests who were present were Governor and Mrs. John R. Rogers and State Superintendent of Schools Frank J. Browne. A short informal program was presented and refreshments were served in three of the recitation rooms." "She Liked It" From the sublime upward we find notes concerning every form of student and faculty activity, headed by "Truth and Love, the Watchword of the Teacher," an article by the first English instructor, Jane Con-nell. A note from the gay old nineties (this time in the advertising columns) showing that times have changed, but not enough to eliminate those dear old advertising columns: "Bicyclers, Take Note!"

Against the San Francisco .Seals last Saturday, Gaw, in his first trip to the plate, cracked put a home run on the first ball pitched. George Pocock, famous builder of racing shells, who has had his headquarters in the Washington crew house for many years, will have special interest in the regatta on the Hudson this spring. Pocock fashioned seven of the nine shells that will carry the nation's leading crews in the yearly classic. Lake Washington, on June 16 will be the scene of one of the most novel crew races ever seen on the Pacific coast. The crews are called the light weight oarsmen and average about 150 pounds. A newly formed crew from the Husky realm and Don Grant's famous lightweight crew from Yale will tangle for honors. The weight of each crew is not to exceed 1,200 pounds. Gordon Broadbent, a Viking two-year letterman in tennis, was seen roaming about the campus Monday. Gordon was a star on the courts about five or six years ago. gt; It seems to be pretty hard for Norman Bright to leave his old stamping grounds, i. e., the Normal track. In his tapering off work he seems to be putting as much conscientious effort into it as when he Was driving for his record mile two Weeks ago. In a true spirit of something or other, Mr. Sam Ford offered the Co-op baseballers a free candy bar if they downed the Krew. Needless to say, they did. Bronzed athletes of the University of Southern California swept into the National Collegiate Athletic Association track and jfield championship last Saturday with a record smashing total of 77 1-7 points. The Trojans won overwhelmingly. / Their nearest rivaly Ohio State, scored 31 points. Talbot Hartley, U. of W., placed fifth in the 440-yard dash which was won by Williams of U. S. C. Eddie Cenung, defending half-mile champ from Washington, placed third in his event, which was ywon by Dale of the University of Chicago in a thrilling 1:53.5 race. Cenung was but two or three strides behind. College studies suffer more from students dancing than from athletics, says Dr. W. Hamilton Fyfe, principal of Queen's University. Dr. Fyfe admits, however, that "it would be a waste of words to deplore at length the excessive demands of dancing upon the time of some students." Athletic students are .better students than those who spend their spare time dancing, he declares. Seems as though our athletes about school are getting as much of a workout affixing their John Henrys to the new Klipsuns as they would if they were turning out under the coaches. In closing this column for the last issue of this quarter we think it would be entirely fitting-to make a brief survey of the past three quarter's athletic ventures. —o— Last autumn Coach Carver's gridiron men, playing extraordinarily strong teams, did not fare quite so good as far as wins were concerned. They downed the U. S. Coast Guard, Centralia Junior College, and tied a strong College of Puget Sound machine. They dropped games to Cheney, Ellensburg, Oregon State Normal and St. Mar-r tins.

GISSBERG PITCHER Surprising even their most ardent supporters, the dope-upsetting Co-op baseball "ten" won the spring quarter intramural baseball championship by dropping the Kitchen Krew 14-2, Monday evening, in as fast a game as has been played this season. By virtue of this win the Bookstore squad rests on top of the tattered heap which represents the downtrodden and defeated Kitchen Krew, Reynolds Hall, and Fire Hall.. The Co-ops have not played spectacular ball this season but certainly possessed the necessary punch when the pinches came, and we might say that these so-called "pinches" didn't come very often, as the Co-ops usually had enough lead to coast along. Gissberg Pitches The Co-op pennant wnners entered the season play-off with the Krew and Reynolds as the decided underdogs, with the Krew favored to wade through the opposition with little trouble. Rollie Gissberg has been the outstanding moundsman of the series. He was borrowed by the Reynolds Tong and set the Krew down with a 7-6 defeat. This win "deadlocked the three teams for the pennant. Then going back to his own roost, Gissberg twirled his team to an 18-4 victory over the Reynolds team to give he and his mates the second half championship. Then tangling with Skotheim for the third time in the series game, Gissberg again came off- with top honors with a 14-2 win and the season pennant. Needless to say, he was given outstanding support by his teammates. The winners started their part of the game off with a bang, scoring two markers in the first inning. They scored again in the fourth and saw the Krew push across their first marker in the fifth. In the fifth the Co-ops found Skotheim's offerings and before the barrage of hits had ceased they had pushed across four runs. The Krew attempted a rally but succeeded in rolling in only a single man in the sixth. The Co-ops started on the Krew offerings in the sixth where they had left off in the fifth. But this time, before the smoke of battle had swept across the field, the Co-ops had swept across the plate for six runs. Then as a good chaser, the winners broke into the scoring column for a single digit in the final inning. The dust, wind and sun handicapped the players and as a result a few errors were made. The Krew were the greatest offenders and let in several runs via the blunder route. E. Leatha had a perfect day at the plate for the winners, with four bingles in as many attempts. He was followed by Gissberg, who cracked out three hits and as many runs. Davis, Osborne and Stude-baker led the percentage column for the losers with two hits each. This game ended intramural activities for the Spring quarter. More teams will probably be organized during the summer session. o SERVICESJRE HELD REV. JAMES WILSON DELIVERS BACCALAUREATE ADDRESS. Last Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock the baccalaureate services were held for the Normal graduating class of 1931 in the Normal auditorium. Wilson's Sermon The Rev. James M. Wilson, of St. James' Presbyterian church of Bel lingham, delivered the sermon to a large and interested audience. Prances Maurer sang a solo, "O Rest in- the Lord," by Mendelssohn. , The reverend's theme was "Research and Reverence for' Science and Religion." ? Truth, said the minister, is to be found in both these fields, and the truly scientific man is religious. Mr. Wilson \ said that the search for truth leads to God. One is not dependent upon finding God in natural things, the minister held, but may find Him within hisown personality^ The nigh-est;. expressibn of ;Gpd is :m 'the. per-; s6n£iii^;oX;-:^s^ *-';^ BelfefFuled Ladder tournaments in golf, hand* ball, horseshoes, tennis, basketball, and baseball are the men's sports planned for the Summer quarter.; Under the supervision of Howard (Dutch) Wilder the first half of the quarter will be taken up with intramural' basketball. There will be four or five teams in the league. If competition is as keen as preceding summer sessions, all men turning out fortius sport will see real action, j The climax will be two games with;jthe University of Washington summer squad. One. game will be played on the local floor and the other in Seattle. R.: E. (Pop) Gunn will have chargeof the last five weeks of the quarter. Intramural baseball will take the lead. Plans are being formulated for the organization of teams which will participate in league races. A heavy schedule of games is being planned. It is undecided at the present time whether the hard or soft ball will be used. The soft ball seems to be the most desirable. The decision probably will be left up to the players. Some of the old timers such as Tiny Blankenship, Zeke McCurken, Johnny Kure, Boltun, Granny Thor-lakson, Oscar Thorsen, Leaden, H. McCleery, J. McCleery, Iverson, and Skotheim will be out fighting for places on the different teams. o Heavy Schedule of Sports Planned for Girls This Summer A most interesting and varied sports program is being planned by the Women's Physical Education Department for summer school students. The major activities will be archery, baseball, and tennis, coached by Miss Genther and Miss Jewell. Turnouts will begin soon after the quarter opens, and managers will be chosen by the teams themselves at an early turnout. •'-•'•• Schedule Adjusted The schedule of sports is adjusted to the summer recreation program, which sponsors weekly hikes on Wednesday afternoons, and turnout nights for the major sports are Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. Every Wednesday afternoon at 4 o'clock there will be group turnouts in baseball, and at these times both the men and women of the school will participate. Tournaments for these sports will be held, and there may be a horseshoe tournament also, depending upon the number who are interested. Miss Genther is taking Miss Horton's place as swimming instructor and she is planning various swimming activities. A large number of W. A. A. members are returning to school, and with their help this summer's sports program should be an exceedingly good one. o TEACHERS SELECTED FOR SUMMER SESSION (Continued from Page One) R. E. Gunn from the Normal will be the instructor in Physical Education for Men. Miss Jennie Waugh, who will instruct in Speech, has an A. B., Tarkio College, Missouri; A. M., Northwestern University, and has been instructor in Speech at Hastings College, Nebraska. Miss Frances Wiley, who has been instructor in Home Economics at the Drexel Institute in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, will teach in the Home Economics department. Wells From Oregon Earl W.

And what will we wear? Never before have pajamas been so popular as this summer, and heres an idea we saw the other day. What could be more clever tharl a "3 in 1" outfit, which combines a house frock, gym shorts^ and beach pajamas. Minus the . skirt you have a charming oner-piece gym or clogging suit (everyone's clogging nowadays), button on a skirt at the waist for a dress, or fasten on two skirt sections at the bottom of the shorts for floppy legged pajamas. When yon get the necessary coat of tan (quite painlessly if you use a sunburn cream), you may adopt the bizarre Algerian colors—and white—for these are the most popular for summer. Exotic hues of red, green, yellow, purple, and blue clash with amazingly good taste in most charming materials. Pajamas are of hardly, rough materials— jerseys, linens and rajahs are practically the entire list tolerated by fashion. Large floppy beach hats are picturesquely showing up on the beach, and also quite the best looking beach shoes we've seen. Sandals are made without toes, straps hold them hi place, and the fabric is gay flowered and striped canvas and" kidskin. And since the necessity of Wearing bathing suits is impressed on us by officials, our attention turns to their looks. Two-piece suits are favored by many, and also the Lido suits with straps to allow for sun tan, are as popular as last summer. White suits are a pleasing contrast with an olive complexion. Bernice Anderson wears a summery looking suit of rose colored silk trimmed with stitched bands which is extremely good looking. And Eileen Finley has a new creation in the way of hats, which she assures us is taking the place of the beret in Paris. It is a sort of a boucle with a jtwisted banc^' round the tight fitting crown, and makes a very chic appearance. o HUNT AND REPORTERS REPLY TO COLUMNIST (Continued from Page One) On Thursday evening, June 4, the Vanadis Bragi held its last meeting of the quarter.

Cleverly decorated with Japanese lanterns on the wide veranda and extended grounds, ^h air of exotic Oriental splendor p r ^ o i o i r a ^ . ; iy! FISHER SPEAKS £\:£. ^ - ^ M ^ B A N Q I J ET (Continued from Page One) much in praise of pur -board of trustees. These men behind the scenes met our emergency situation in a magnificent way. Had the board of trustees been made up of men of less vision and understanding we might have a different story to tell. According to the outcome Of our difficulties there has been pre^ served everything that is significant and that is essential. Both students and faculty have responded to the demands of the situation with a wonderful spirit," the President stated. Some changes were necessary to assure the operation, of the school under such a financial handicap, President Fisher pointed out, but he expressed his gratitude to every member of the faculty for their co-operation. President Fisher told the Alumni that a junior high training school to accommodate about 150 students was greatly needed at the Normal so that teachers may prepare themselves for that division of the profession. Teachers Co-operate Although the cutting of salaries was necessary because of the reduction in the budget, not a teacher in the school resigned or refused to sign a- contract for the coming year because of reduced salaries. A welcome was extended to the Alumni. The spirit of the school was lauded and President Fisher said the Normal was a school to be proud of by all graduates. Stress was laid upon the requirements for teaching which have been raised from the three months of a few years ago to three years beginning next fall. He briefly described the first class of 1900, composed of eight women, as compared with the present year, when about 220 will be graduated. The school has graduated about 6,500 students since 1900, he said. Herbert Hansen, of Seattle, a graduate of 1921, was elected president of the Alumni Association for the next year. Hansen succeeded Kenneth Selby, also of Seattle. Selby was not present at the banquet. Lyle Summers was chosen vice-president to succeed Albert Booman, of Lynden. Booman acted as chairman at the banquet. Georgia Gragg was re-elected secretary-treasurer. A fund will be established by the Alumni to purchase books for the library. The fund will be a memorial to the late Olive Edens, it was said. Diplomas Presented Dr. Fisher presented 275 life diplomas to those completing the necessary requirements. He said, that teachers found it morel, difficult each year to qualify for the diplomas. The requirements are made strict to improve the educational system, he said. Washington state should be proud of the high standard that class room teaching has attained, President Fisher said. Representatives from a number of former graduating classes were called upon for brief talks. Miss Emma Whitworth was a representative of the oldest graduating class of the school. She belongs to the class of 1901. Others heard in talks were Mrs. Ethel Birney Laube, 1906; Herbert Hansen, 1921; George Abbey, 1926, and Miss Mary McDonald, 1931. Miss Frances Maurer was heard in vocal solos. Albert Booman called the roll of all classes. The entire body joined in singing school songs. Dr. W. D. Kirkpatrick, chairman of the board of trustees, was scheduled to talk, but was called away early in the evening. Program Song Alma Mater Presentation of Life Diplomas President C. H.

Services claim cuts unjust by RICROFF SONJA BROWN Prefacing itsrecommendations on how to cut the budget of student services, the Ad Hoc Committee on StudentPersonnel Budget pointed to President Charles Flora's "apparent lack of insight and understanding" andthe Board of Trustees' "precipitous action based in part on eleventh-hour pleas." In its report to Dean ofStudents C. W. "Bill" McDonald on ways to cut the budget by 30 per cent, the committee, after meetingalmost daily for the past three weeks, urged McDonald to advise the president of the "grave concern"over the reduction, to request a formal audience before the Board of Trustees and to convince AcademicVice President Jerry Anderson and Business Manager Don Cole that the reductions be shared by otherareas besides those falling under the Dean of Students Office. In the face of what seemed to themunjust reductions, noting that library acquisitions were cut none at all, the committee (composed of RayRomine, associate dean, who chaired the committee; Dr. Kenneth Jernberg, director of the StudentHealth Service; Saundra Taylor, director of the Counseling Center; and Louis Lallas, director of theCareer Planning and Placement Office) made the following recommendations of where funds might becut: â€”$42,000 by transferring resident directors and aides to the Housing and Dining budget; -$10,000or $5,500 by reducing stipends to graduate students in student personnel administration; -$30,000 (in1973-74) by returning to financial aids federal overhead monies generated by that office; -$20,000 byreturning to the placement office monies generated by that office; -$11,000 by reductions in theCounseling Center; -$20,000 or $10,000. by reducing h e a l t h services budget; also recommended was the transfer of the health service to St. Luke's Hospital; â€”$53,213 by 10-month employe appointments; â€”$26,656 by 11-month employe appointments; $42,000 or $84,000 by assessing students a $2 or $4health fee. McDonald will present a "progress report" on the cuts at the Board of Trustees meeting,tentatively set for Jan. 10. 'Everyone is hurt, but no one is bleeding to death.' Dr. Kenneth Jernberg,director of Student Health Services, defended his area during testimony to the committee saying that3,000 students a quarter pass through its doors, and for some it is a service which enables them to stayin school. Those students who do not use it nevertheless have a right to expect a health service to beavailable, he said. In answer to Romine's belief that educational functions should have priority overservice functions, Dr. Jernberg testified that the main purpose of health services was indeed to providehealth care therefore regulating health e d u c a t i o n to second place. "However, we are now buildingprograms in nutrition and preventive health care into the service," he said. With the elimination of theCounseling Center students would lose a voluntary, free and confidential counseling service, which lastyear served 17 per cent of the student body, Saundra Taylor, director of the center, reported. About 800students a year have problems of "moderate severity," Taylor said, adding that close to 200 a year could "drop out of school without counseling." The Bellingham community would be unable to provide thepsychological crusading students need and workshops and self-study projects would not provide anadequate substitute. Associate and assistant deans defended their services, expressing a desire forstrong leadership and coordination of services. One suggestion for lifting the "fog" surrounding theirfunctions was clustering several of the services into a development center. Judging his office to beamong the most crucial to students Richard Coward of Financial Aids said the least effective servicesshould be cut rather than making across-the-board cuts. Louis Lallas, director of Career Planning andPlacement, pointed out the changes in the employment situation since 1969, which marks the end of an era of plentiful job opportunities. "More than ever graduates have to demonstrate job readiness and learn the skill of job seeking," he said. Ninety per cent of 1971-72 graduating seniors used his office's service, he added. The committee designed the proposal so as not to seriously eliminate any one service areaor personnel. But it was met with general disapproval by the student services heads. Romine stressedhis committee's efforts to find "loose and floating RAY ROMINE funds" rather than hurting one servicearea more than another. Coward termed the proposal as a "cop-out" by the committee since it "cuteveryone across the board." "I'm not for sorting people out," Coward said. "But the committee is takingthe easy way out. This way everyone is hurt but no one is bleeding to death." Coward further supportedhis feelings saying the committee's duty was to determine which services, met the student and college's need and that it should have found out what services it could do without. Assistant Dean Tim Douglascriticized the Board of Trustees' action in hastily accepting the Mitchell Report that detailed reductions incollege services.

There is a "dramatic possibility" of closures next quarter if the "middle-cut oil" Western'sphysical plant uses as a secondary fuel for heating comes under proposed government allocation plans,according to Gerald Brock, administrator of Western's business management office. Any decision toclose the college in the event of such an emergency would ultimately rest with College PresidentCharles Flora. Flora would not deny the possibility of closures but said he expects no shutdowns at thistime. There have been rumors of the possibility," Academic vice president Jerry Anderson said, "But weanticipate no closures yet." Anderson was confident that periodic closures would not affect theeducational process at Western. He said that all alternatives would have to be considered before anyshutdowns could occur. The basic heating fuel used at Western is natural gas, according to StuartLitzsinger, head of the physical plant. Because Western is on an "in terr up table-industrial" schedule,the plant has had to rely on industrial fuel oil for heating purposes as gas deliveries are being suspended"more and more," Litzsinger said. If the fuel oil is allocated under the government plan, Western wouldbe limited to using equal or less amounts of oil than were used last year. "We only had to switch to oilfor 58 days last year," Litzsinger said, "But this year we may have to rely on it for 90 to 120 days." As a result, Western may need 600,000 to 700,000 gallons of oil this winter as opposed to 300,000 gallonslast year. Under proposed government allocation plans which limit oil usage to last year's amountsWestern might be lucky to get even 300,000 gallons. This could mean that Western will get less thanhalf the oil it needs to heat the campus during Winter quarter. Interruptions in gas deliveries will continue until mid-April, according to Hal Munton, vice president of Cascade Natural Gas in Seattle, Western'ssupplier. Curtailments are due primarily to a reduction of gas coming from Canada, he said. Fuelallocations will probably go into effect this month, according to Herb Hunter, chief buyer in the division ofpurchasing for Washington State in Olympia. Hospitals and institutions will receive the highest prioritiesin fuel allocations, he said, but there is no guarantee that Western will get enough fuel to operate fully.Western's business office is studying plans that would allow the college to get more gas, but at a highercost, and only under a contract that would be binding for one year. The physical plant budget is alreadyunder stress, however, because of the high price of the fuel oil currently in use, Brock said. ---------- Western Front - 1973 December 7 - Page 2 ---------- '2'.r Western Front ' fnfoysU mbfr^, 1973^ Anderson grapples with crisis by JIM BROOKS Grappling with the worst budget crisis in Western's 75-year history is no easy task. But Jerry Anderson didn't expect it to be when he took on the challenge of vice president of academic affairs just 68 days ago. Since hisarrival at Western from Michigan, Anderson said he has had "feelings akin to the residents of Londonduring the blitz of the Second World War." Having dispensed with the usual "honeymoon" period to getadjusted in his new job, Anderson began by working 18-hour days toward solving the immediateproblems facing the campus. If the next legislative session votes to slash Western's appropriation, for1974-75 by $1.6-million due to the enrollment drop, Anderson now believes the college is prepared tomaintain quality education. Anderson said the goal has been to achieve zero reduction in personnelwhile preserving the quality and reputation of the college. "I've been very impressed with faculty, studentand community response in finding alternatives to deal with the short-term problems. At least, we will beable to sustain existing programs and honor our commitments to the students." He said that faculty andstaff are planning to share cuts in salary and take leaves. He has met with most departments in Arts and Sciences and the cluster colleges and found that "pride and professional commitment is still here."The maintenance of quality must be our number one concern. Any other position would be self-defeating. Unless we are responsive and maintain quality, we can only look toward a continuing decline inenrollment." Anderson said the "prevailing concept that Western is going to be nothing more than aglorified community college is absolutely not true." He said colleges in Michigan faced similarenrollment declines three years ago. And, that through careful, long-range planning, their enrollmentsstabilized and increased and the legislature responded accordingly. "I believe we can take pride that thescar tissue and disruption of our teaching-learning environment has been kept to a minimum as opposedto other campuses facing similar problems." He said he doesn't see "how the legislature can help but be highly responsive to our institution given its reputation for past accomplishments in its service to thepublic." Anderson rates Western in the top five in the nation for excellence among schools of its sizeand mission. He said there has been "a concerted effort to improve an atmosphere of trust and to keepopen the channels of communication which are so vitally necessary." "I am aware that the alternativesbefore us, in most cases, require some sacrifice on the part of faculty. But we hope these are onlytemporary measures." He looks for Western to emerge from its present dilemma and show favorableresults by the end of this academic year. "In the long run, we will be way ahead if we do our best job ofinternal long-range planning. We can emerge from this crisis stronger and better than ever before."Matters of immediate attention include : -A close look at academic and career advisement.â€”Curriculum analysis and the advoidance of course duplication, individualized learning and programs for students, re-examination of admission JERRY ANDERSON standards, repackaging of financial aid, a tt e n t i o n to career education complementing the liberal arts tradition, and reorganization of theacademic affairs division to be more responsive to the academic needs of the college. â€”A look at thecommittee structure to ensure that time and energy is not spent without receiving impact. "Through long-range planning, we can push onward and upward so we never again have to face this kind of crisis,"Anderson added. "We must all work together." _ / Visitors to judge Ecology, energy ideals collidedoctorate proposal Leona E. Tyler and Frederick Lighthall will judge the doctorate proposal, its qualityand the capability of the college to offer this proposal. They are at Western today. Tyler is the presidentof the A m e r i c a n Psychological Association (APA). She is the fourth woman to be picked for thisposition. Tyler is a diplomat in counseling, which is a recognition of confidence in an applied area givenafter five years experience after the doctorate. She was the first woman dean of a graduate school in the country. Tyler has written four books. Work of the Counselor is being used at Western in Psychology553.

Lighthall is the associate editor and consultant for the Journal of School Psychology and is a life member of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.He is a licensed consulting psychologist in the state of Connecticut. Some of Lighthall's publicationsare Anxiety in Elementary School Children, and Pedagogisk Forskning The psychology departmenthopes to get the approval of Tyler and Lighthall for the d o c t o r a t e proposal. The comments andrecommendations of the two will be incorporated into the final draft of the proposal and will be presented to the Graduate Council which will determine if it is ready for review. by BOB SPEED The NixonAdministration opened up several areas in the Rocky Mountains to shale oil research and developmentWednesday. T h e e n v i r o n m e n t al implications of this action are potentially more disastrous thanstrip mining for coal. Coal stripping has laid waste to huge analysis parts of several eastern states,especially West Virginia. Over 99 per cent of the shale ripped out of the Rocky Mountains will have to be dumped somewhere. The proposal offered Wednesday was to fill in mountain valleys and create newpeaks which are "environmentally compatibile" with the surrounding areas. do//ff!ed/I 10 MISC.

During the remaining 27 years of the twentiethcentury, energy will be a key question. This will be the period of the energy "crunch," when demand willoutstrip available supplies. Nuclear power is proposed to be the main new source of power. It has beenstated in previous articles in this series that although nuclear power plants can be operated safely, thewastes are among the most poisonous substances known. Oil use will continue to rise, but is a finiteresource with a limited future. Coal will again become one of the most important fuels, as technologicala d v a n c e s improve its performance. Technological improvements for coal include the production ofhigh quality oil from coal. With most fuels, pollution is one of the main considerations Coal and oil bothproduce hydrocarbon pollutants, carbon monoxide and other chemical pollutants, as well as heatpollution. Nuclear fuels produce radioactive emissions and wastes and generate heat waste. Nuclearfusion, the power of the hydrogen bomb, is being researched. Within the past two years, Sovietscientists have made breakthroughs which make fusion a practical process, relatively pollution-free. The major problem with fusion lies in the extremely high temperatures which must be generated to beginand maintain the reaction. No material exists which can withstand the temperatures, over one milliondegrees Centigrade, so research is b e i n g done u t i l i z i ng electromagnetism as a shield.Electrolizing water into its c o m p o n e n t parts, and recombining them electrically, produces powerwhich could be used on large and small scale operations to produce power. Only one waste product isproduced - water. Hydrogen generation has been suggested as a feasible alternative to fossil fuel forrunning automobiles. Electrolytic converters have been suggested to produce power for homes. The sun is already being used in many places around the world on a small scale. In Japan, vinyl pillows placedon roofs heat water for home use, especially bathing. In the U.S., some housing developments are being c o n s t r u c t e d experimentally, utilizing solar-cell panels in roofs which transform the sun's energy ---------- Western Front - 1973 December 7 - Page 3 ---------- Friday, December 7, 1S gt;7 Western Front 3 AFT would keep faculty, cut fees by KEITH MYETTE(Ed. note: This is the final installment of a series tracing the growth of the local chapter of the AmericanFederation of Teachers.) Most state legislators have seen education as a commodity to be used for thebest interests of the community. With that is mind, Western was ordered to give back $1.62 million ofstate funds budgeted for students that didn't register last fall. This means a reduction in up to 100faculty positions, and the American Federation of Teachers (AFT), largely composed of young,untenured teachers (who would be the first to go if reductions would be based on tenure and seniority)felt the crunch with the rest of the college community. Reductions were ordered because enrollmentfigures forecast by the state's Office of Program Planning and Fiscal Management (OPP FM) did notmaterialize. Gov. Dan Evans later vetoed the measure, but it will be brought up again this January. AFTposition papers insisted on the "primacy of the instructional program" and demanded that instructionalbudget cuts "come only after the exercise of every other possible means of saving money," but cutswere still forecast. Local AFT President J. Kaye Faulkner of the economics and business departmenthas tried (thus far unsuccessfully) to impress upon legislators the need to hold back on the cuts.Faulkner does not fit the stereotype of the professorial scholar. At home in the classroom or in the laborhall, Faulkner puts the problem facing the AFT quite simply: "We should be getting these bastards thatare oppressing us!" Faulkner has cultivated relationships with community and state labor leaders,playing down "the elite characterism, of We should get those bastards oppressing us. collegeprofessors" in discussions with labor. The local AFT chapter supported the oil chemical workers' strikeagainst Shell Oil last year, and Faulkner has expressed support for the striking retail clerks unionagainst the downtown Bon Marche. Languages face cut Unable to come up with concrete reductions infull-time equivalencies (FTEs), the foreign language department finds itself facing a sub-unit analysis bythe administration. Department chairman Walter Robinson said the department had been unable toguarantee around two of the seven FTSs r e q u i r e d in t he reduction-in-force policy of the college.The department was reduced from 19 to 12 FTEs in the Mischaikow report. Because of the uncertainties in the implementation of the reduction, the department's faculty has been reluctant to sign letters ofintent to participate in a reduction program. W e d n e s d a y , however; department members signed le t t e r s specifying which professor would do what in the reduction program. According to a Dec. 4memo to the department from the Academic Coordinating Committee (ACC), the letters of intent were tohave been signed and turned in by n o o n W e d n e s d a y or administration would have to start theirown sub-unit analysis in preparation to FTE reductions. The department's professors disagreecompletely with the policies of the Mischaikow committee in regard to reallocation and reduction inforce according to the letters signed Wednesday. The letter says the faculty signed "for humanitarianreasons" and agree to take part in the program. "If we do not- sign the letters," Eunice Faber said, "theadministration will implement its own sub-unit analysis for laying off faculty." Wednesday Loreh Webb of t h e ACC informed the department that they had already done a sub-unit analysis of the departmentand came up with reductions of 2.5 FTEs in French, 2 in German and Spanish, .25' in Russian andLinguistics, and none in- Classics. tf 7X gt;1^ Â£â€¢ HOLLY St. Di-C (dam _^^f gt;m_ ~MA!C% Sat.lOam-Sfn-s t^^~ * OM Wren's Â£ gt;cok,5 CootWkS Science Fiction. Faulkner sees Western'ssalvation lying with the legislature in January, and he has secured "explicit support" from the WhatcomCounty Central Labor Council, which represents most AFL-CIO affiliated unions in the county (the AFT is an AFL-CIO affiliate). The labor council has approved and sent to other councils a position papersupporting the right of faculty members to bargain collectively and strike,and ask for changes in tuitionand fees that would "enhance, rather than kill," the opportunities for working-class, students to attendcollege. According to Faulkner, this support would bind union lobbyists in Olympia to "massive support" for higher education funding. Besides asking for labor's lobby support, Faulkner plans to initiate acollege-wide faculty poll asking for institution of a collective bargaining agent, most likely the AFT. Most proposals aimed at easing the budget crisis were drafted by AFT members, i n c l u d i n g the Summer (Stanford) Plan, which would, in effect, hire professors for a three-quarter period. Besides keeping more professors employed by the college, the plan would stop older, tenured faculty members from teachingduring the summer session. A few members have resigned from the local AFT chapter, but Faulknersees the remaining It isn't another coffee club. We have an emotional commitment to action.'members (there are currently 167) as dedicated. "It is not simply another coffee club," he said. "We have an intellectual and emotional commitment \ to action." The increasing pace of the union's activities,which has drained Faulkner, has led to fewer meetings and more executive committee sessions, asituation Faulkner dislikes and promises to correct.. "Things have moved fast," he said. "We (theexecutive committee) are almost a shadow administration at this point." But he added, "You either trust us or you don't."

BonusQuestion: What is the answer to the bonus question? ---------- Western Front - 1973 December 7 - Page 5 ---------- Friday, l cember 7, 1973 Westerri Front editorial Cop-out charge wrong Boycott wines ^ ^^ ^^ The United Farm workers Sunnnrr fYimmirree here at 1 After hours of arduous meetings listening to heads ofstudent services tell their stories, the committee to recommend cuts decided not one service should beeliminated. The problem faced then was how to give students the same services for less cost â€” how topry loose the dollars without collapsing the edifice. Some termed it a "cop-out." They wanted only the"necessary" services to remain. A student is not going to need all the services all the time, but there aretimes when a student is going to need one of them â€” any one of them. This is the reason a totalprogram of services, without gaps, is needed. There are also those critics who say that a collegeenvironment is unnatural and that "all those services" make it even more unnatural, hence wrong. There is nothing unnatural about a college campus. If growth is natural then a campus can be the most natural ofplaces. The point of student services is that they either hold the student together so that he can grow orthey actively aid that growth. There is a cop-out the committee still has a chance of performing, however.That is, to fail to make heard that the services need reorganizing and that they need to be more visibleand available to the students and others on campus. The associate and assistant deans' functionsespecially need such clarification. Maybe Jerry Anderson, the new academic vice presidenr, is right:there are problems now, but there are opportunities. commentary Gay compliments 'warmth' "I wasbiased, having heard you speak before. I expected cold rhetoric â€” you extended warm feeling. Iexpected you to flaunt an attitude of aloof security-lost in your own trip to your own view of the world." Ihave been so engulfed by the warmth of the response to "Troubadour" from people here at Western, thatI can no longer contain my joy. Hence, I am compelled to share with you excerpts from letters I havevreceived. I too was biased while I was in preparation for this performance. I thought surely that peoplewould miss the essence, lose it in their judgements about my artistic ability or their struggle to maintain validity in the foundations of their bigotry. The oceans â€¢ of support from Alliance members inleafleting, having the tickets, programs, posters printed, etc. gave me no clue that this performance of"Troubadour" would be an especially humanistic experience for myself as well as others. " . . . Instead Iencountered vulnerability, love, and concern for others . . . I found grains of tolerance as you spoke ofoppression â€” I was awaiting bitterness. S o , excuse me for my expectations and thanks for your giftof self." When I walked off the stage during the first night's experience, I went to my dressing room torecuperate from the tremendous emotional trauma. I sat for awhile with my head in my hands trying tostop my tears. When I looked up, the room was full of people, all looking at me, who had been standingquietly as I put myself together. I smiled and found m y s e l f i n s t a n t a n e o u s ly submerged in acommunal hug. " . . . I t has long been observed that much of the prejudice against gay people isderived from reaction in heterosexuals to fears about their own latent sexual tendencies." The secondnight my mother was there. Also my great aunt, also my lover's mother. I knew that my actions thatevening would be forever bronzed in their minds from then on. I felt every second on stage to be climatic. I was exhausted after my first few opening lines. I wanted to walk off and forget this whole business.Thank God I didn't. " . . . Although predominantly heterosexually-oriented, I occasionally find myselfphysically attracted to other men. For awhile, after I recognized and admitted this to myself, I found itdisturbing, almost frightening. I have, however, come to accept this as not unnatural; certainly the gayliberation effort has had an influence in my change in attitude. God bless you." When my mother walked up to me that night and hugged me, saying, "Honey, that was beautiful," something I've been waiting all my life to hear, when people that I've never met began to approach me on campus and in broad daylightgreet me with handshakes, hugs, and even kisses, and when these wonderfully uplifting letters, notes,and phone calls arrive in the office, I know it has all been worth it. I've never known any artistic orhumanistic endeavor on my part to have been such a fulfilling experience. For what it's worth these days, I love you all.

ADVISER: Pete Steffens TheUnited Farmworkers Support Committee here at Western has begun a boycott campaign against Gallowines as part of its regular activity. This effort is part of a nationwide campaign now underway in supportof the U.F.W., which is on strike against Gallo. The Farmworkers signed a contract with Gallo, the largest domestic wine producer, in 1967. This contract was renewed in 1970. However, when it came up forrenewal this vear. Gallo refused to sign, and instead signed an agreement with the Teamsters Union.They did this as part of an attempt by the California growers to bust the U.F.W., which through itsorganizing efforts has for the first time won basic rights for farm labor in this country. Farm workers,mostly Chicano, are one of the most oppressed and underpaid sections of the work force. They arespecifically excluded from present labor legislation, and therefore cannot call for a N.L.R.B. election tosettle the question of which they want to belong to. For that reason, the Gallo field workers had no choice but to go out on strike to support their right to be represented by the U.F.W. The Teamsters Unionleadership has no interest in improving the lot of agricultural labor. If they did, they would simply keep out, and not disgrace the labor movement by aiding the big growers in an attack on the U.F.W. Recentrevelations about Teamster contributions to the Nixon reelection campaign, in return for a halt to a federalinvestigation of misuse of Teamster pension funds, shows the real character of the present Teamsterleadership. Gallo wines include "Boone's Farm," "Spanada," "Tyrolia," "Ripple," "Thunderbird," "RedMountain" and "Raisano," as well as the "Gallo" brand. Any wine with "Modesto, Calif." on the label ismade by Gallo. The U.F.W. Support Committee here is asking students not to purchase these wines.Presently, however, the boycott campaign here in Bellingham is centering on convincing local merchantsnot to stock Gallo products. This effort has already met with considerable success, with the FairhavenTavern, Cal's Tavern, Pete's Tavern and the Wine Cellar all agreeing not to purchase any further Galloproducts when their current supply is sold out. The committee is planning to work from this base ofsupport until all retailers have agreed not to stock Gallo wine. Those who are unwilling to comply with theboycott will have their names published on a list to be distributed among local students and tradeunionists. Aside from the Gallo boycott campaign, the Farmworkers Support Committee here is regularlyengaged in- picketing Safeway and carrying out a variety of other activities. The committee holds regularweekly meetings which are open to . all interested individuals. These meetings are held every Thursday at 7:30 p.m. in the MECHA office, Room 010 Viking Union. Karl Foreman United Farmworkers SupportCommittee letters 'Right on' housing ad implies sexual bias Editor, Western Front: We would like toquestion an advertisement which seems sexist to us. The housing advertisement of Nov. 16 pictures ayoung man looking at a book The Calculus. The words run "Why walk a mile for a class? Live close. Live on. Housing 676-2950." Because of the macho appeal, it seems n e c e s s a r y to read theadvertisement with a hip and rugged voice. "Right On" conveys a very sexual base tinge. The young man is hard as evidenced by his scarf and general aura, yet a "pretty boy." The Michael Landon, Mark Spitz "I drink milk" sex model that sells both milk and sex. We do not know if this is all conscious or sub-conscious, it would seem both. If housing advertises they are saying on-campus housing is not justordinary, but better than ordinary. And so the young man has everything because he does live on-campus, or will. He has "brains," observe the Calculus book he is holding. It is our hypothesis that thisyoung man would not be presented with a music book in hand, not an art book, not a language book,since none . of these would fit the somewhat "cool image." The young man appears more analyticalthan emotional, as men have been so characterized for centuries. Areas of study are seemingly dividedinto their respective analytic-masculine a n d emotional-feminine categories. As a fashionableheterosexual male, the women are "just implied." This young man is what women are supposed to want and men are supposed to want to be like. This young man is thus "sold" by housing to the consumer.There are other messages certainly. The hole in his shoe shows he will be better off living on campus . .. but we did not even notice this until pointed out to us. We are posing our own biases certainly, but wehave obtained them through such advertising as this. We are urging that some consideration be given to matters of this sort in hopes of surpassing our stereotyped, commercialized notions. We would invitereplies from housing, The Front and others.

The Passage first appeared on the streets in 1969. It was one of the manyalternative papers which sprang up in the discontent and turbulence of the late 1960s. Circulation is now4,200. "Obviously," said John Brockhaus, Passage worker, "the Bellingham Herald is very right-wing.The Passage serves as an outlet for a lot of people in Bellingham, Seattle and points in between, whoseinterests aren't reported by even the more liberal papers." The Passage has a distinct, rather low-keystyle which separates it from other alternative papers such as the Berkeley Barb or Los Angeles FreePress. Four-letter words are used with discretion, and sexist language and ads are carefully screenedout. A policy was adopted last fall to eliminate the universal "he" in material submitted to the Passageand replace it with "he/she". The content of the Northwest Passage reflects the people working on it. One issue may be mostly "down home funk" and another, "hard core , political stuff," Brockhaus said. ThePassage calls itself a "fortnightly journal of ecology, politics, the arts and good healthy living." Each ofthese take turns being the outstanding feature. For a while the Passage had a very strong ecologicalflavor. Although the environmental bend has never diminished, the content gradually moved to back-to-the-land articles, such as goat raising, organic gardening and other related topics. Currently it has lostsome of its country flavor and increased its political content. Articles printed in the Passage arecontributed by members of the community and staff and are completely unpaid. Anyone can work on the paper. Editorship is rotated each issue among gt;Jjiose fairly experienced with Passage production.Recently a cooperative editorship has been tried. Passage staff member and part-time Western studentBilly Patz explained that there are fewer students on the paper at present. "Most of the workers now arefrom the community (Southside) so there's more community orientation." This system of a totallyvolunteer paper is not without its problems. Often the paper seems to be on the verge of collapse.Complete turnovers in the staff take place frequently. No one currently working on the paper began with itfour and a half years ago. The staff doesn't do as much of the writing these days because of fewermembers, and so less time. Community sources are depended on for news and events. Most of the staffworkers are "self-taught journalists with no previous experience. "The kind of people who relate to thePassage don't commit themselves â€” people just don't stay with one thing too long anymore," saysPatz. "We often think about ways to get people interested, but are successful only to a certain degreebecause of today's culture." It is hard to generalize about just who works for the Passage. People comeand go. fortnightly journal of ecology, politics, the arts and living.' Financial problems are also commonfor an alternative newspaper in a small city. The main crisis, insists Brockhaus, is the people working on the paper; or lack of them. He has doubts as to whether the spirit of volunteerism is still around, andfears that unless "some way is found to pay a few coordinators; chances are fair that it (the Passage)may fold." "But not" he added, "in the near future." Many people have been burned out trying to keep the paper together because they also have to spend time working for a livelihood. After a certain point, thelimitations imposet all-volunteer paper finds some who have lot of time to it to move on.iVith a fewmembers, Brockhaus felt, the quality Passage would improve. More time devoted to organization andkeeping events. Rumors that the Passage was going were "one disgruntled staff member Brockhaussaid. This summer when the demise of th seemed imminent, the larger advertising Seattle and greaterhuman resources were A crisis meeting was called to discuss th( relocation.

The source of the eats wasn't Saga, but a boarding house on High Street â€”and the year was 1899. In 1889 Fairhaven was a thriving community with a salmon cannery and fishingfleets. Bellingham had a respectable 22,000 people. Holly Street was a plank road. The campus itselfwas dotted with logs and stumps, much of it was swampy and students had to walk on boards to keepfrom getting their feet soaked. Life wasn't all that easy in the opening year of "New Whatcom NormalSchool", as Western was called then. A history of the school, called "The First Fifty Years," was writtenin 1949 by a group of faculty members. This brief work provides a vivid glimpse into the lives of the early"pioneers." "Students were scattered all over town in rooms furnished in many cases with a cheap rentfor Western washstand or a box used for that purpose, a table and a bed," the authors explain. Therewas a bright spot however - the principal's wife often combed the streets of Bellingham for studentlodgings at her husband's request. Apparently, women's lib had not yet come into vogue. The 264students attending Whatcom Normal were at no loss for recreation, we are told. There were "steamerexcursions," up and down Lake Whatcom and hikes along Chuckanut Drive, "then a narrow, steep,dangerous trail." For the more intellectually inclined there were the joys of the "Thespian Club", and five"literary societies" were set up in the first year. Dramatic troupes went in small boats to islands(presumably the San Juans) or "traveled rough corduroy roads . . . to little lamp-lighted school houses."Due to the high percentage of Swedes, Finns and Norwegians enrolled, an entire play of Shakespearemight be heard in a thick Scandanavian accent.

His hour-and-a-half set, his first liveappearance in eight months, featured a number ot Sleepy John Estes tunes, some Joseph Spencesongs and such obscure "classics" as "I Caught a Stranger in the House and I Busted Him With aClub," "Call Jesus on the Mainline and Tell Him What You Want" and a song about Billy the Kid,referred to by Cooder as "a snotty, half-wit slob." Personally, it was his stringwork that was impressive.In his hands the mandolin, usually a rather unobtrusive instrument, became a powerful, train-rolling forcebehind the vocals. His guitar playing was likewise fine - particularly the bottleneck stuff. There was aquality in his vocals that turned me off once or twice which is not to say his singing wasn't strong (itwas) or appropriate to the songs (it was). It just seemed that this young and talented White man's vocals were the result of a studied reproduction of the Black men w h o s e music he was predominantlyusing. Which brings me to the excellent film about 75-year-old Black singer-philosopher ManceLibscomb that preceded Cooder's set. Libscomb's rural, h a r d t i m e s b a c k g r o u nd produced anauthentic musical idiom that expressed very personal feelings about the human condition. Cooder'sHollywood hills reproductions of Sleepy John, for example, expressed the life-view of the man but failedto e l i c i t t h e d e ep e m o t i o n al-personal-attachment - to life of the original. Perhaps Cooder'suse of a small amplifier added to this effect. Perhaps I quibble.

An open discussion session will follow Costigan's presentation. Theevent is free. the Mitchell Committee stated she couldn't defend the need of Health Services when itfaced strong opposition because she didn't have any information on what Health Services did. Becauseof this she supported the feeling of not being able to "communicate to the board unless as a group."Jernberg also attacked the library fund that received little attention as "inordinately high." Coward alsoexpressed dissatisfaction with library's book aquisition fund as unnecessary since having so manybooks for so few students was futile. Activities budget axed 13% The AS government anddepartmentally related activities such as drama, men's and women's athletics and musical organizations will suffer from 10 to 13 per cent budget cuts over the next six months because of decreasedenrollment. The departmentally related activities budgets, totalling $255,286 under last spring's estimate of 7,462 full fee paying students, will be reduced by $33,357 to $221,929 coming from the actual figureof approximately 7,000 full fee paying students. The AS will take an approximatley 10 percent cut bylosing $15,000. Each of the full fee paying students pay $ 11.10 out of their tuition and fees for thedepartmentally related activities. The AS receives an additional $6.40 from each student. Informed onMonday of the exact amount of money to be lost, representatives from each activity decided to take theloss equally with each activity losing between 12.9 and 13 per cent. I n c l u d e d in t he departmentally related budget is the operation of the Viking Union. Of its $94,193 all but four thousand dollars goes forsalaries. The AS was at least partially ready for the cuts. A reduced enrollment reserve fund of $5,000was set up at the start of the quarter in preparation of the cuts.

K. JOHNSON The jinx of Royal Brougham Pavillion is still frustrating Western basketball teams. Wednesday evening theVikings never overcame their first game jitters and dropped a lackluster 66.-49 contest to Seattle Pacific College in Seattle. Today and tomorrow, the Vikings will be in Tacoma participating in the DaffodilTournament hosted by the University of Puget Sound. Western will play UPS tonight at 8 p.m. and willface either the winner or loser of the Portland State-Fresno State game. Wednesday evening, Westerncould not get untracked offensively. After taking an early 4-2 lead on baskets by Chuck Fisher and RobVisser, the Vikings went into a six-minute cold spell that enabled the Falcons to establish a lead thatwas never headed. Seattle Pacific's Mark Stream erupted for six of his 10 first-half points late in theinitial period to propel the Falcons to a 22-10 lead. The Vikings closed within nine points on baskets byKeith Lowry and Visser with 1:18 remaining, but Stream's passing and scoring propelled SPC to a 28-17 halftime advantage. Battling back from a 13-point deficit early in the second hal" the Vikings, pulledwithin seven points on a Fisher basket with 15:18 left to play. It was as close as Western got the rest of the night. The Falcons capitalized on Western turnovers and used a fast break offense during the nextsix minutes to breeze to a commanding 51-31 lead. The biggest Falcon lead came with 4:48 left to playwhen SPC's Nate Townsend's jumper gave the Falcons a 60-35 lead. Craig Nicholes, Jim Hotvet andChris Brown finally caught fire late in the contest to bring Western within 17 points as the final buzzersounded. Other than lack of scoring power, Western failed to rebound aggressively against their shorteropponents, giving the Falcons two and sometimes three shots at the hoop in order to score. Visser, atransfer from Grays Harbor Community College, was the workhorse for the Vikings, leading the Big Bluewith 11 points and pulling down 14 rebounds. Hotvet was Western's second leading scorer with eightpoints, followed by Dick Bissell with six. Stream led the winners with 18 points, followed by Al Peelerwith 12. Western's junior varsity watched a seven-point halftime lead melt away as the Falcon juniorvarsity rallied to a 70-62 victory. Western is now 0-1 on the year while Seattle Pacific is 3-0. Western'sfirst home game will be Jan. 3 against SPC at 7:30 p.m. Women harriers dominate UW Invitational inSeattle The women's cross-country team closed out its initial season of competition on a high note lastSaturday at the University of Washington Invitational in Seattle.

The host school was the only other complete team in the meet. On the basis of unofficial dualmeet scoring Western beat the University of Washington 9-19. Western coach Ralph Vernacchia hasexpressed great satisfaction with the progress of the team. None of the girls on the team had run cross-country before this season. It is hoped that the success of this year's team will provide the impetus for a much improved women's cross-country program at Western. Tankers ready for wef season With onlyone returning letterman, Western's men's and women's swim teams will be facing an extremely uphillbattle in one of the toughest areas of the country this season. The Viks will face such expectedopponents as Pacific Lutheran University, second in the NAIA championships last season; CentralWashington, perennial Evco champions; Southern Oregon College, last year's Evco champion andHighline Community College, one of the strongest community college teams in the Northwest. Theschedule of times and dates for the teams is still being drawn up by the athletic departments of thevarious schools. The first meet is expected to be held several weeks'into Winter quarter. The 10member men's team will be led by Paul Simmerly, lone letterman and finalist in the 100 and 200 yardbreast strokes and medley relay in the Evco championship meet last year. One performer from last year, Robin Allen, diver, is a possible performer. Other competitors on the predominantly freshman teaminclude Bob Lytke, Jeff Smith, Greg Laing, Mark Davis, Bill Sawhill, Darrell Kimmerly, Joe Coverson, JeffMickle, and Doug Danner. The women's team, under the tutelage of Coach Don Wiseman, who alsocoaches the men's team, will have its ranks increased by three swimmers who will join the team whenthe volleyball season is over, bringing the total up to seven. t ---------- Western Front - 1973 December 7 - Page 11 ---------- Friday;: Decembfe^?, '^0 Wessteffi Frori# 11 =: Mingo takes first at tourney pe|e Fires to meet as Vikmatmen place second Capilano tomorrow Coming off a second-place finish in the Simon Fraser U n i v er s i t y Invitational tournament in Vancouver, B.C. last week, the Viking wrestling team will travel toEllensburg to participate in the Eastern W a s h i n g t o n Invitational tournament tomorrow.

Other Vikings winning placesinclude Dan Bailey, 158, who grabbed third, and Charlie Walker, 150, who took fourth. Over theweekend, John Adams, 136, placed second at the Canadian tryouts at Thunder Bay, Ontario, for theBritish Commonwealth Games. Adams was pinned by Egan Byler, a member of the 1972 CanadianOlympic team, after going into the third round tied 0-0. Adams said, "I just made a mistake and he rolled me into a pin." In the event Byler is unable to compete at the games to be held in Auckland, NewZealand, Adams, as first alternate, will be given the invitation. Volleyball team eighth at Western'svolleyball team, while finishing eighth in the regional tournament hosted by Oregon College of Educationin Monmouth, Oregon last weekend, had the satisfaction of beating rival Washington State Universityand coming close to defeating a few top rated Northwest teams. Western faced six teams, winning twoof seven matches. The wins were recorded over Eastern Oregon and the Cougars. Western gave topseeded Oregon State a scare in losing the first match 16-14, 15-5.

The second team, with a 3-1-1 record, will begin the action at 1 p.m. and the first team, 3-4, will take over at 2:30 p.m. After tomorrow's games the ruggers will rest until the start of the second half of the season in February. The top teams of each school will be fairlyclosely matched as far as season records are concerned. The UW, at 3-3, boasts two all-stars fromEngland and more experienced backs. The Viks will be coming off a two-week layoff as their game lastweekend against Surrey rugby club in Surrey B.C. was cancelled because of field conditions. After aslow start due chiefly to inexperience, Western has come on strong, with recent wins over WashingtonState University and the Seattle Rugby Club. Western combined with the best of the Chuckanut BayRugby Club for the win over Washington State. Paul Gawenko. Cindi Scott captured the women's titledefeating Nori Bowman. Nine men and four women competed Nov. 20 in the second annual turkey trot in which two men and women won turkeys for Thanksgiving.

Western's Club basketball team, the Pele Fires, looks for their second win in a rowtomorrow when they take on Capilano College in West Vancouver, B.C. Tipoff time is scheduled for 7:30. The Fires, fresh off a rather convincing win over British Columbia Tech last Sunday, are regionalsgame. The Viks won the second game 16-14. The Viks then threw a scare into Portland StateUniversity, defending regional champs, by winning the second game before bowing 15-9, 13-15, 15-9.The tired Western team could no nothing against the University of Oregon Ducks in the last Fridaymatch, losing on their own mistakes 15-5, 15-4. Starting out fresh on Saturday the Viks came frombehind in both games to defeat Eastern Oregon, 16-14, 16-14. Lack of concentration appeared to beWestern's downfall in the first playoff game, against the University of Washington. The Huskiescapitalized on Viking mistakes to win easily, 15-4. 15-3. Next year's squad should have an abundance of experience as only one starter, Kathy Dooley and reserve spiker, Bev McKissick will be lost throughgraduation. a team that plays in spurts. The Fires lost their first two games of the year, then won four ina row, dropped two more and now are, hopefully, on another positive tangent following Sunday's win over B.C. Tech. The Fires are a young team, consisting of three sophomores and eight freshmen, and" are"starting to jell," according to coach Pete Burns. "We're playing more together now than even before this season. We're becoming a 'team' team." Burns cites a tough, "man to man" defense as the team'sstrongest attribute. Their biggest weakness, he points out, is their inconsistent snooting. The Fires shotonly 28 percent from the floor in their last loss, a 71-66 upset administered by a team from the WhidbeyIsland Naval Air station. The Fires have picked up wins over the faculty-alumni teams from Ferndale,Sehome, Meridian and Bellingham high schools. Their losses have been at the hands of AAU teamsfrom Victoria and Vancouver, B.D., the Nooksack Valley alumni and the Whidbey base team.Individually, Burns is very pleased with the recent emergence of postman Mike Anderson and forwardBrad Potter. The 6-4 Potter, a freshman from Longview, has been particularly impressive, averaging 18points per game during the last three contests. He scored 21 against B.C. Tech in a limited appearancewhich saw him sprain an ankle and lose a tooth. VfKmQ Sounders SCUBA LESSONS WINTERQUARTER Limited Class Size Register Now!

AS President John Wolfe attributed Wilson'sresignation, recommended in a vote of the Front staff, to the staff's "basic mistrust" of the ASgovernment. Wolfe said that recent decisions by the AS board of directors which assure winterpublications funding through the comptroller's office and provide for one more publications representativeon the AS Communications Council were intended to soften that "mistrust.".. Wolfe told the senate atits last meeting that its start at implementation of the publications council was an unnecessary andsecondary action in light of the board's actions. Since then, the senate has voted, 23-5, in a mail ballot,to submit the publications council to an early Winter quarter vote of the students. If approved by thestudents, the publications council would become the fourth council of the senate. The senate'scommittee on councils and committees would recommend the new council's structure, and the newcouncil itself would recommend its policy, both subject to senate approval.

The slugs, ranging from four feet in height and up have been bred espcially for the growingstuffed slug culinary industry. Several of the slugs, originally thought to be harmless, overpowered ascientist and two guards at a secret research installation and slimed them to death. The slugs breedrapidly and travel at alarming speed for creatures so large. They are easily killed when seen, but theirnocturnal habits and resemblence to piles of trash make them hard to detect. People are cautioned thatthe slugs are especially dangerous when cornered or wounded. The killer slugs are especially fond ofbeer, and several taverns have been attacked and taken over by the slugs. 11 has been difficult to getescaping tavern patrons and residents to call the police. The people are afraid the slugs arehallucinations. A favorite tactic of the slugs is to crash through back doors of houses to get at therefrigera- tors. One slug was recaptured after crashing a house in suburban Vancouver and breaking intothe liquor cabinet. When overpowered, the slug was comsuming expensive Scotch and quality Cubancigars while watching a re-run of the Untouchables. People are advised to barracade their back doors and to be very careful about how they answer the front one. A case of beer near the garbage cans with a tripwire alarm might deter the slugs long enough to split the scene, but fast! How To Cope When Cork Pops For the survival minded, the Passive has compiled some helpful suggestions in coping with a futureenvironment that appears inevitable in light of the awesome nuclear capabilities of the major powers.When the cork is popped and the earth is scorched, be sure and keep a folded copy of these tips in yourtattered jeans. 1) waterâ€”a questionable commodity to locate since the terrain of the nuclear wastelandwill not conform to present day topography. Should one adapt to the new "quality" of the crust and lowertin can, garbage pail etc. tied to strips of cloth until a splash is heard. Trial and error is very important inthis technique. 2) fuelâ€”sources of energy will be in short supply then as they are now. But heated caves will be of comfort. Burnt stumps of trees, chipped with the sharp edge of arock until the outer layer isremoved will reveal slightly radioactive, but burnable wood. Be sure to locate new honestead in area oncedesignated "forested.". 3) food-contrary to past attitudes that vegetation is sufficient for survival, theenvironment of the future will dictate new conditions. Since all vegetation will be defunct, food sources will be restricted to the already dead and cooked carcasses of the animal world. Once again radioactivitymust be adapted to. Storage will also be a problem. Such an acute one, incidentally, that the Passiveregrets that it has not the answer. 4) socializationâ€”in the past, has led to close ties amongst groups,while at the same time designating "others" as enemies. Ergo, defense systems were built. In the future,all groups, communities, states and nations should be avoided in order to prevent the situation you havejust found yourself in! page 2 USING YOUR OWN . . . TO GROW YOUR OWN . . . by art a. chokesHi. You wonder just what the headline means? Simply, in just two words, it's fertilizer and dope. That'sright, fertilizer, or more potently, you OWN fertilizer to grow your OWN dope. You think I'skidding? I'mnot. Some of the best shit around today is being grown with human excrement and if you are like I am,smoking shit has become such a habit, that you've started growing your own. But most likely you aren'tusing your own to grow your own and if you aren't then . . . well, the thought is just sickening to me. Youare obviously smoking someone else's shit raised in someone else's shit. Therefore, I 've taken thedelicate task of telling you what to do to grow your own while using your own, starting from consumptionand blast-off toretrivation. To begin with, I should note that in growing your dope this way it costs youonly $1.49 fur a butterfly net, perhaps $2 for a silver spoon and around $20 for a good set of pots andpans. Most importantly, the shit has to be at least a foot high before the fertilizer is used so that whenapplication of the dung comes (dunger time), it does not shock the hell out of the plants system. (If theplant is any smaller than a foot, it can die before contact is made. Plants are sensitive. They KNOW.)Once fertilizer is applied to the plant, you must water like mad or the plant will collapse of dehydration.The plant will not die but just collapse. When it is watered, it will shudder right back up fine. B and Sbaked beans, corn, prune juice and radishes I find are the best things to eat and should be measured out in even portions, brought to a boil, simmered for five minutes and then allowed to cool before drinking.That's right, this is the consumption partâ€”so vital to plant health, growth and welfare during its body-building days. The only drawback here is that painfu I diarrhea may occur, making the fertilizer totallyinaccessible to netting after blast-off. It has been found by my talking to others that taking deepbreaths helps to relax this situation a little. However, it doesn't do anything else. I f at first you don'tsucceed, try, try, again. After awhile your body will become accustomed to fighting the mixture atconsumption and therefore dispose of it in appropriate, firm little pebbles. Immediately following asuccessful launch (blast-off) is where the $1.49 butterfly net and silver spoon come in (retrivation). Withpractice you will soon be able to retrieve the fertilizer blindfolded and might even want to. Noseplugs arerelatively inexpensive so you may want to use them also. Clothes pins will also work. What you do isgive the net a qu ick right twist with your wrist, plunge downward and then snap it back. Will you besurprised! It works! Once retrivation is over, the flight is a success. I t's now dungertime and you shouldinstantly apply the fertilizer to the plant in order to prevent the shit from becoming stagnant. It can lost its potency while the plant can die during this time. {11 does no good to try talking to the plants. Theyseem to refuse listening to anyone at this stage). Finally comes application time. By taking the silverspoon you should mash the fertilizer thoroughly while adding water. By making holes in the dirt the plantis growing in (with spoon handle) you can pour the solution into the roots of the plant. The dirt may bevery hard. This is because the plant in its defense has drained all water from the vase, thereby creatingan almost patrif ied rock. The lighting you installed during the dopes early growing period should now beremoved completely from the plant. No light should be allowed to reach the plant from now until harvesttime (when plant is three to 12 feet tall). For some strange reason, it will now thrive on darkness. Afterharvest, will you ever be surprised! It is extremely potent shit. And there you have it. I started growing my plants about two weeks ago after learning this process and have had to raise the roof of my closet twice. The plants are now 12 feet high. Remarkably, the dope smokes smooth and light and liaves a faintscent of burning rubber. I also find a slight after-taste of Georgia-Pacific lingering until well after I 'vesmoked it. (People living in Bellingham find this to be true. However, I have talked to people in Everettwho have tried this method and they find Weyerhauser lingering.) My biggest problem now is what to doabout the loud erruptions and rushes of stale air from the closet. Sound-proofing and insulatation have not taken care of the hassle. Otherwise, there have been no other problems with this fun and easy process. Anyway, it's worth it. Enjoy your SELF and stay high. CRYPTIC Plans are being formulated for the new student co-op cemetery to be laid out in Red Square. The cemetery is one of the many projects of therecently created "Class on death," and is designed for those students doing research for the classesrather extensive final examination. Lowell Z. Plotz, the cemeteries coordinator, sees the cemetery as amarvelous undertaking. "All the students are excited about it, and really wsant to participate." Plotzstressed that student involvement, the cooperative effort, is what will make go. "I n fact," he said, "with all that's going on, I expect a lot of business. That's why we've reserved a special section for the untenuredfaculty." Plotz emphasized that business will be good this time of year, because students see thecemetery as a viable alternative to going home with their grades. "And they don't have to pay back theirNational Defense loan," Plotz said enthusiastically. "Boy, it's just erally neat how all the students aregetting involved, ya know?" They really like getting their hands into old mother earth," said Plotz. And forthose cooperative students, Plotz is planning a special treat. Inspired by the famous Firest LawnMortuary in L.A., where visitors can see film clips of a famous movie star at their grave site, Plots has his own line of special "casket features," to lend comfort to the departed and the departee. I n the crypts ofdeparted English Majors, there will be continuous showing of that epic film, "Ma and Pa Kettle meetBeowulf." For the ecology buggs there are giodegradeable caskets, and for Campus Christian Fellowshipthere are piped in tapes of Billy Graham. Second Coming enthusiasts will have caskets with special trapdoors. As the cemetery is getting "underway," Lowell has begun a novel based on the project. "Thecharacterization is a little stiff," he said. "But the plot is really great." oorpfjffe 5lugPreder VoO WILLMBEJD^ C? *- lt;*Â»***y^. 8~ 12, ClKÂ£-beM "SLOGS ( SPOOMPUl_ TOTKSCO/Hr/\ C-Wr^ O Z.

No, I believe it was the lgerof the Nile. jre I met one of the most truly remarkable have met in mylife, and I 've been in nearly every monestary from here to Mozambique, yes.

So, I give you the basic plan for Jeeves' wention, using only the equipmentavailable to him. very same items are available right where you live. Resident number 67352290 MonroeState Reformatory ETRAINING day, when all values are being challenged and being discarded, somehave been left un-ed, taboo, as it were, even to the most hard-socialist individualists, we've all heardthose bathroom gutter jokes the taboo subjects, but after many hours of nplative study, concludedsomething had to ie. taboo subject to which I am referring, is of , defecation. I mean, shit. This subjecthas eft untouched too long. It's the age-old a f the turd inthe punchbowl, y, i asked myself, do 200 million Amerikans sit eyes forward, feet planted firmly on the floor, as if at some kind of perverse call of"Attention!"? because, i concluded, nobody ever questioned the autoiritarian principle behind it (so tospeak) which goes back to toilet training. Not without plan is the fact that the damage is done early, soearly that no one remembers it. How can one expect to question something they don't even remember. Idid extensive research and found that this fascist Amerika has spent millions for cancer research, butNOT ONE PENNY for research into defecation! My destiny all but slapped me in the face one day, while i meditated. It came so hard that i nearly fell off the stool. How could i have been so constipated for somany years, to accept this fascist mathod of defecation? i asked myself, i felt like kicking myself in theass. The very next time nature called, i began my investigation of alternative methods the counter-culture might use to advantage to break away from th is Amerikan pattern. The first new alternagive i tried outwas this. I stood on my head over the toilet bowl, with my feet straight up in the air. This didn't work verywell. The next time, i tried thesame basic position, but with my legs drawn up into the lotus position,with my head pointed down, but in the opposite direction this time. The results were similar, i didn't needa third try to assure myself there must be a better way. I did need another shower. I n order to clear mymind of past propagandistic indoctrination, i tried fasting. This did not produce the desired results, so ibegan a steady diet of prunes and Explax. I found this allowed the creativity to flow much more freely. I n the next few weeks, i must have tried a thousand different ways to defecate. Some of the moresuccessful ones were: Clumbing a flagpole (i imagine a telephone pole would do in a pinch) whilemeditating on the mystical sound OM. Squatting off the back end of a fast-moving truck, while holding on tight to the ra[ling, while talking in tongues, as loudly as possible. This method is highly recommended,but watch for the State Patrol and be careful of the wind chill factor in winter. Exposure might beembarrassing to explain to either a trooper or a hospital attendant. i finally came up with the BESTmethod of all, which is not at all what my authoritarian parents or first grade teacher said was nroper.With my feet firmly placed on the bowl of the toilet, i faced backwards towards the wall, on which hadbeen placed a picture of Richard M. Nixon and his dog Checkers, and chanted Kizzmaiaz, kizzmaiaz atthe top of my lungs. The combination never failed to produce the desired reaction, and the positon itselfallows one to peruse the entire wall area for graffiti in the absense of a picture of Nixon, i do recommendthat everyone carry a picture of him, to places where none are available and you are feeling a bit irregular. Remember, the family that shits together showers together. '5 "O TkSTE. Dlfc_E.CT\ONJS â€¢CM"CW: ^LU6S .PUKCE- IM A, LMUiE.

"Air quality tests indicate that the atmosphere in most large cities is unfit for human consumption, so we decidedthat the best way to rectify the situation is to ban breathing," an EPA spokesperson said. To enforce the breathing ban, the EPA is equipping special "breath partols" with sonic lung analysis kits. The patrolswill take spot checks of passing motorists and pedestrians . anyone found to have air in his/her lungs will be subject to an indefinite banishment to the suburbs. Nasel Sticks Nose Up At Gravity Consumptionadvocate Ralph Nasel recently called for Congress to repeal the law of gravity as the "first progressivestep towards conserving our vital energy resources." The natural energy that is wasted on "just keepingthings down to earth" could be harnessed for clean industrial power, Nasel said. Nasel pointed out that ifthe law is repealed all immobile objects could be anchored to the ground and people could carry leadweights in their pockets. "I n the face of the current energy crisis, it is ridiculous to allow this waste ofnatural energy resources on keeping things in place," Nasel said. T.V. Out Of This World Rumors havebeen spreading across the United States that television sets are in reality aliens from the planet Darvon,who have come to take over the world. Although NASA, CBS and the FCC all deny these allegations,thousands of people have either disappeared completely or become frozen in a sitting position for yearsreciting over and over "good-night David, good-night Chet." More ominously, authorities recently crashedthrough a back door of a suburban Seattle home to find a television set blaring loudly while sipping abottle of Jack Daniels and smoking expensive Cuban cigars. Down On Typewriters Ralph Mader,consumption advocate, pressed the Environmental Revulsion Agency to ban typewriters. Recentconsumer probationstudies have shown that the long-term effects of the bell ringing at the end of eachline drives people crazy. Mader Fails To Score Recent studies have shown a dramatic decline in thequantity and quality of beaver around Bell-ingham. A recent beaver hunt on a dark and cold and lonelyFriday evening netted not one beaver. None were even sighted, according to local beaver expert RalphMader. Each beaver captured is termed a "socre," Mader said, and commented " I didn't score all night." Mader did saythere is an ample supply of local crabs, however.

ELECIED PRESIDENT OF OTHER OFFICERS ARE ELECTED FOR SEMESTER The meeting for the election of Senior class officers was held last Wednesday morning at the .scheduled hour, with Mrs. Edna Anstett acting as chairman The constitution and by-laws were presented by Marian Collier, and voted upon by the class. Resignations of nominees, having been presented for the offices of President and Secretary, made it necessary for an informal ballot to' l gt;e. cast. The following officers were then elected by majority vote: President—Donna Klinckcr. Vice President—Pearl Stroughton. Secretary—Ralph Miller. Reporter—Margaret Spaight. A very poor record of attendance was shown. Considering the number of Seniors enrolled, a greater active interest should be displayed toward class affairs: It may be emphasized that the boys aren't so scarce that they need all be excused from attendance. If you are a Senior, pull for your class. Don't let the other feiiow do it. Co-operate, and by so doing, help both yourself and the class of which you are M'COMAS ELECIED PRESIDENT OF 1HE a. member.

Sian-ley McComas heads the list for president; Blanche Davey was chosen vice president; Katherine Meyers will tike charge of the work of secretary, while Ff.hel Ashley will serve as treasurer. With these efficient officers the Juniors are starting off with a vim, by announcing a mixer for Saturday night.

Dr. Chafer took for his theme the three classes of man: The Natural, Spiritual and Incarnate. Under one of these classes everyone has his place. He emphasized that to attain one's greatest ideal one should belong to the spiritual. All derived great benefit from this spiritual talk. EXCITING GAME BIG GAME SET FOR SATURDAY AFTERNOON In a short practice game with Fair-haven high school last Tuesday, the Normal team easily defeated the South Side lads 34 to 0. Handicapped by a loss of several men and by a lack of a heavy line, the South Siders had no chance to score, altho several times they threatened the Normal goal. The game • altho of but half, regular length, was slow, clue to the fact that the Normal punched many holes in the South Siders' line. However, tomorrow will do much to show standard of Sam Carver's team Tomorrow, Saturday. Oct. 15, our team will lock horns with Sedro-Woollev and inasmuch as (hey have an exceptionally good team, the results probably will be very different. Sedro-Woolley lias practically an old team, one that has played together for two years and probably will play an open game, passes and many end runs. They easily handled Blaine, who in turn beat Whatcom, and altho Woolley had several men mutilated temporarily, they are on their feet again with a fighting team. If the Normal wins, it will be by no lopsided score. Paul Rairdon, who has been playing tackle, has been sick and it is doubtful whether or not he will play at Woolley.

These are the bel! signals in case of fire: 1 bell will ring for drill; 2 bells will mean tbe location of the. fire is in the Science Annex; -i bells, in the Main building; 4 bells, in the Training School; and 2 long bells will signal time for return to the building. Everyone take, heed to these signals. At this assembly Mr. Thompson again favored us with a selection entitled: "'America the Beautiful." WEDNESDAY-Oct. 12.

All of these will be a source of much interest and benefit. The Music club has an orchestra of five violins and a piano. This ambitious orchestra will help regularly with ' the Wednesday Assembly programs in the Training School, and seive at other times when called upon. The Junior High School students enjoyed very much hearing Mr. Thompson give John Drinkwaler's "Abraham Lincoln," and Longfellow's Hiawatha. The Columbus Dav program was held the 12th of October, in the main Assembly hall. Over thirty slides were shown, depicting scenes in the life of Columbus. Talks were given by different pupils as slides were shown.' Orchestra selections concluded the program. The 7A Science class went on a field trip Monday afternoon. The SB Arithmetic class has opened a bank. Different members of the class represent the various business concerns, such as. a grocery store, a dry goods store, a lumber mill, and others. One is a cattle dealer, one a farmer, one a real estate dealer, and one an automobile agent. There is a great deal of rivalry among the different concerns to secure business. The real estate dealer IIMS opened a new addition on the hill south of the Normal and is selling lots at the fabulously low price of $1,000 a lot. 'Pupils are learning to fill out deposit slips, make checks, borrow money and other necessary details. A visit to a local bank proved very instructive. Some very creditable and artistic posters may be seen on the walls in the lower halls, made by the primary grades. They are worthy of inspection. The primary classes also are preparing the bulbs for planting. They put them away in the dark and will bring them out in time for Christmas blossoming.

In after days when grasses high O'er top the stones where I shall lie. Though ill or well the world adjust My slender claim to honored dust, I shall not question or reply. I shall not see the morning sky; I shall not hear the night-wind sigh; I shall be mute, as all men must In after days. 8 But yet. now living, fain would I That some one then should testify, Raying—"Tie bold his pen in trust To Art, not serving shame, .or lust."

Indeed the story of Mr. Thompson's life is very inspirational, for he has risen so far above his affliction 1hat he is known as one of the foremost platform speakers of America. Mr. Thompson lost his eyesight shortly after his college days were over. At the time when this great misfortune overtook him, Mr. Thompson was studying to be a singer, but finding his inability to read notes a serious handicap to his success in the realm of music, he began the study of reading. Our hope, of distinction and success is born anew by meditating on the record of this marvelous man. "Lives of great men, all remind us, We can make our lives sublime." How many of us only put.forth a mediocre effort and are content with the development of perhaps 40% of our inherent possibilities. Even in normals and universities the. percentage of students who carry subjects primarily for credit and are satisfied with barely passing grades is appallingly large. Surely the ideals and s'andards of attainment of this class of students are not very high. Their idea evidently is to just "get b y . " Of course, we must, have a certain number of credits to be Juniors and Seniors and lo graduate, but should not our primary aim be self-development to the fullest possible extent and should not our studies serve as a means in attaining this worthy end? If self-development is our aim we shall not confine our study of mathematics, for instance, to the text book but shall delve, if time permits, into all phases of mathematics as a subject. Again, we shall not study primarily for diplomas, but to become strong teachers. First, seek self-development, and secondly, credits and grades. PEP Are you school spirited ? Is our student body, as a whole, school spirited ? The school spirit of any school is only the composite of the school spirit displayed by each indivchial student. Don't forget that " a chain is no stronger than i t ' s weakest link." What are you doing to the school spirit of Bellingham Normal? x\re you making it finer and stronger or you weakening the Normals' school spirit? There is only room in Bellingham Normal for students who are school spirited—who have 'pep' and. lots of it. Be that kind of a student! Put your school first and leave Bellingham feeling that the Normal is just a little better because of your influence and the support you accorded student activities while here. This season the Normal has a football team for the first time in years, o you thoroughly appreciate this fact? If you do you will come out and root for the team at the game Saturday.

If so, the Normal Cafeteria has its place in the hearts of many, for figures show that during the summer quarter 175 to 200 persons were served daily. This quarter 125 to 200 are taking their noon meal iTicre. Due to the lowering of prices on certain food stuffs our cafeteria is able to serve food at remarkably low figures. Soups, pies and salads are examples of this. The insufficient stove space has been remedied thru the purchase of a new hotel range. From the following menu, one may gain an idea of the variety of dishes and prices of our cafeteria: Cream tomato soup 5c Creamed chipped beef 10c Baked potatoes oc Creamed carrots and peas 5c Scalloped corn 5e String beans 5c Sliced tomatoes 5c Sliced cucumbers 5c Sweet pickles lc Cheese 3c Fresh rolls, 3c; 2 for 5c Plain broad and butter, 3c; 2 for 5c Raisin bread and butter 3c; 2 for 5c Apple pie 5c Cream pie 5c 'rune pie oc Prune sauce 5c Doughnuts 3c; 2 for 5c Tee cream 5c Coffee, cocoa, milk 5c Candy liars may be obtained from ;) a. in. to 3 p. in., and ice cream may generally be had during the afternoon. The cafeteria is glad to order supplies for school parties or club .affairs. Supplies ordered through the cafeteria can be secured at lower figures than when bought retail. gt; On rainy days the waiting line is always longer and the cafeteria folk plan accordingly. It takes from 15 to 20 minutes to serve the ordinary line, but the Normal line is by no means an ordinary one. This line presents a fine opportunity for the study of certain phases of human nature and individuality. The difference in tastes, manners and customs is amazing. Much credit is due Mrs. Richards for her well seasoned soups, and homelike pies and cakes. Our cafeteria is self-supporting. Your co-operation will keep it so.

Just browsing around is-poor policy; one never gets anywhere or knows the value of what he does get. The very best way to glean a general knowledge of books and of library usage, a necessary a set to every teacher. is to spend a litile time with each classification. This week's topic is Biography. Why should we read biography? Most of us have the idea that it's dry, hard to read, ancient; but that's the wrong impression. Why, just the other day .1 finished the biography of Jane Austin, English authoress, who became famous early in life; and it was better than fiction. To know something of the in timacies of another person's life, his trials, aims, and achievements, is to be inspired and encouraged. The best biographies are usually written by those, who esteem their subjects very hignly. Loekhart loved Sir Waiter Scott; Bos-well idealized Johnson. To read the life of one whose aims were similar to ours is to find a new frioMcl, and it is impossible to hnve too many such friends. It must be remembered also that the term "biography" includes many delightful informal letters full of the writer's personalities and containing interesting incidents of everyday life. Nearly one thousand lives are represented in our library by letters and autobiographies. The following list is especially selected for its value, interest, and variety, and is heartily recommended to everyone. The life of Thomas Edison, the most '•useful" man living in the world at the p?-esenfc time. A Life of Caviour, Italian patriot. St. Francis of Assisi. E. Grcig, the. great musician whose life was so full of purpose and sincerity. Abraham Lincoln, by Ida Tarbell. Don't finish this year without delving a little deeper into the life of this beloved leader. The Life of Alice Freeman Palmer. You students who suffer over lesson plans, take heart, for by striving and thro love of striving Alice Freeman Palmer when very young became president of YVt'llesley college. Life of Roosevelt. A timely book, of the vigor and simplicity of the great statesman. 1 A life of Helen Keeler. Booker T. Washington, the great negro leader. The Education of Henry Adams. One of the biographies that has caused moie comment than anv other of the present day. The Letters of Robert Louis Stevenson. The Letters of Ralph Waldo Emerson. The Life of Jane Austin. Sir Walter Scott, by Loekhart. Boswell's Life of Johnson. Head the many posters in the library which explain the ten definite calssifiecV Lions into which the books are divided and know tne general grouping of the subject matter. Jn seeking books, remember that reference books and bio graph y are to be found in north room, magazines and periodicals in the south room, and all others in the middle room. Next week's? topic will be Art. A "new book" shelf will be placed in the library soon," opposite the charge desk, and will contain the very latest additions to the library.

The books so recommended will be entirely Small can Log Cabin Maple Syrup 25c Owen Market Grocery No. 3 G-arden Street, Near Oak outside of any course of study in any department.

EXPERIENCES TEACHING IN THE DISTRICT SCHOOL A very interesting letter has been received by Miss Wilson, from Margaret Stapleton, in regards to her teaching "The last three weeks," states Miss Stapleton, "have been the busiest, most interesting, and most novel that I have ever experienced." Situated in the hilly wilds of Cowlitz county, near Pigeon Springs, is a little, old fashioned, twelve pupil school, where Miss Stapleton is teacher—and community leader. Th'e ittle school is on the other isde of the Kalamath river, and at present is access-able only by crossing the river on a foot log. However, when the rainy season ensues, it will be necessary to cross the river in a "hanging bird cage" suspended on a pulley and rope. The school itself is fairly well equipped, with exception to the library, which is composed chiefly of abandoned high school texts, piled in an old fashioned book case, in a very prominent part of the room. Due to Miss Stapleton's initiative, borrowed books will be procured from the T acorn a Public Library, and the State Traveling Library. The "teacher's quarters" are rather unique, tlio perhaps not to be appreciated. The boarding place is a three-room log cabin, in a rugged, partially cleared valley. Tho very clean, the three-room house is shared by a family of five, besides the teacher. Altho the community takes an active interest m activities Miss Staple-ton remarks that she feels, "like an alien on foreign soil" as the people are nearly all Finns, and speak little English. Miss Stapleton enjoys her teaching more than any previous experience and enjoys life in the country. Vet, our former student misses Be'lingham Normal. Many of Margaret Stapleton's friends will be glad to hear that she is planning on returning to B. S. N. S next summer. B. S. N. S. Teacher—Cecil, compare the adjective, sick.

My, the ground seems mighty solid After this ordeal, I'll say— —Anon. tli rd THE SCHOLARSHIP SEVERAL DUTIES Much doubt seems to be in the minds of many Normal students regarding the function of the scholarship committee. One buoyant Freshman was heard to ask if that was the committee that was the committee that handed out scholarships at the end of the year. It has nothing to do with the awarding of scholarships to the particularly deserving; rather, it concerns itself with the student who is falling behind in his work.. The members of the con.miUee arc: Miss Cummins, chairman; Mits Bell and Mr. Rakgkopf. The purpose of tins committee is to study the relation of the student to his grade standings. It is to see that students do not overload, and that grades are kept up to a certain standard. Another duty is to supervise the • standing of the athletic teams. In order that one team may have as high a standing as another it is requisite that only students of certain grade standards be admitted to the basketball, .baseball and football teams. This applies to either the boys' or girls' track teams, and also debate. In fact, any team representing school activities falls under this requ.is.ite. Thus it is not to grai.t scholarships, but to uphold a higli standard of scholarship that this committee is appointed and its members are at work. -B. S. N. » . — OUR "HELLO" DAYS. Say "Hello" to every person you meet on the campus or in the building.

Such beautiful blue and white wooly blankets piled everywhere, just waiting, it seemed, to cuddle a weary chilly yhv per; and pillows, quantities of them, inviting the drowsy head, brand new chairs, there were too, and crockery. Towels draped themselves here and there.- Several rugs were on display. There may have hem curtains curious vases, stands, pictures, and many other interesting things; but one quick glance thru a partly open door could but give a bare survey. There were people iu the faculty room, also, who seemed to be fingering the wares spread by the bazaar before them- and c-hatl ing affably, no doubt, over the prices and values. One could never guess the real meaning of it all. It lt;nul to do with the furnishings for the new dormitory. The girls who are to live there may count themselves lucky in being taken care of so completely and pleasantly. The merchants who made bids for the dormitory equipment were requested to present samples which were for a period of several days placed in the faculty room under observation of the Board. Up to the present writing no bids have been finally accepted. The Northwestern National Bank Bellingham, Wash.

T H IS IN CONSTANT USE Bellingliam Normal is unique among schools of its size, in the amount of its Student Loan Fund. Beginning with a nucleus of $400, donated by the graduating class of 1004, thft fund has constantly grown until at present $10,000 is at the disposal of Dr. Niisn and a faculty committee to loan to deserving students. Practically all of that amount is in use now. The Unit any student may draw ia $200. Mr. Allen, of Seattle, has proved himself a friend indeed, to many prospective teachers, as at two different occasions he has given generously to the Loan Fund, on the stipulation flint the sum he donated would he equalled by other conti ibutions. The faculty also have given freely to this fund. Letters received by the school from students who have made use of the Loan Fund show with what appreciation and gratitude these loans are received.

Miss Sperry returned Monday from Teacher's Institutes in Grant and Harney counties. The institutes were held in Canyon City and Burns,, Oregon. The program was very interesting, and Miss Sperry enjoyed every part of her trip Among those who helped make the Institute such a success were: W. M. Smith, assistant state superintendent; Professor F. L. Stetson, of the University of Oregon; Professor E. D. Kesseier, of the Oregon Agricultural college, and Miss Gertrude Lyons, superintendent of Grant county. Miss Lyons will be remembered here as a graduate of 'IS. She is doing splendid work in her field. Miss Sperry met several other Normal students at Canyon City, among them, Mrs. Von, of the class of 'I."), who is now head of the English department at the .Maker City high school; Mrs. Elizabeth Shoemaker Gunthcr, of the class of 1909, and Miss Pauline Paulson, of Mo. The country in which Miss Sperry visited is one of great opportunity and great possibilities. There are good schools and hard working, appreciative teachers. The great drawback is the irrigation problem. Canyon City is an old gold mining center, and was at one time the largest city in Oregon. ITarney county is the largest county in the United States, being nearly 200 miles long and comprises 00 million acres of land. " Miss Sperry drove by auto from Canyon City to Burns, a 70 mile trip, and from Burns to Bend, a 150 mile trip, thru desert and sagebrush. These cities are without railway connection and the stretches of country between these points present a touch of the real "wild west," with its picturesque barrencss and promising future. B. S. N.

IS LEADS IN COMMUNITY SINGING Mr. Coughlin returns to us, brimming over with enthusiasm about the institute work accomplished at Goklcndale, Klickitat County, October 3 and 4, where he was one of the leaders. Following the Portland route, Mr. Coughlin viewed the wonderlands of the Columbia. From Maryhill the trip was completed by stages. By route of the. main highway, the stage crept up the snake-like switchback, with a 5 percent grade to an altitude of 1G00 feet, the top of the .'Klickitat Plateau. From this point the view was most interesting, including four great mountain peaks of the northwest, M.ts. Adams, Hood, Rainier and St. Helens. Arriving at Goldendale the party was cordially received. Mr. Coughlin reports having seen many former students of Bellingliam Normal at the institute. Me brings back greetings from the students and teachers: Margaret Riddle, '19-20, District ii, Goldendale, Wash. Floisc M. Dickens, '21, Pine Grove. Wash. Margaret Wells, '20-21, Husum, Wash.

The appeal of the institute was mainly thru visualization. - A great number of stereoptican slides, depicting nature, were shown; and there also was a motion picture demonstration. Prof. Coughlin introduced community singing, in which he was ably assisted by a former Normal student. At first it was practically impossible to get the audience in a responsive mood. None of the songs that usually gather enthusiasm seemed to rouse the audience. Finally, when the leader was about to give up hopes, succumbing to desperate needs, he announced that anyone seen not singing the song "Howdy" and shaking hands with those on cither side of him would be considered as a "poor sport, and" said Mr. Coughlin, "such a shaking of hands and such a friendly spirit that arose, you never saw in your life!" There was a big gathering of fomrer Normal students, who wanted to know-all about the Normal, and about prospects for summer school. Mr. Coughlin visited two schools, conducted by former Normal students. They took him all around the country, and he reports it to be a great land for harvesting wheat. There are large crops this year and much fruit. In fact, every- Small picnic Shoulders, per lb 16c Owen Market Grocery No. 3 Garden Street, Near Oak thing points to a fine season, except the prices, which are very low.

Out into the deep waters of the channel it glided, pushing aside the water gently, guided by the bare brown arm of our moody boatsman. Further out it dared until the rythni of its swaying lulled us into a musing dream, and the shadowy white walls behind receded into darkened haze. The city of Venice was at rest. Its people, its boats, its sights and sounds were asleep. It seemed as if the mellow darkness of the night were a masterful being that barkened the noises and soothed the people into dreams; that arranged the strange silence, so full of tremulous whispers; that called to the fairies, beckoning and inviting them to play. The fairies he called were the moonbeam fairies and the fairies of the water —ail .the fairies of the night time. Shadow sprites came and danced at the edges of the water. We saw them flicker and wave and grow. They crowded into the corners; they covered the walls and houses with warm protecting arms. But the moonbeam dancers were all around us, in the open on the water. Our followers, they swayed and trembled and gleamed, lighting up the surface. Their dance was not dumb; it was full of song and light laughter, but the singing and the laughter were stilled. The water fairies we could not see at once, but we felt their presence and heard their hushed chant. Murmur low, liuir mur low! It rose and fell, grew and died. They chose the tiniest moonbeams for their partners and twinkled in and out of the water in merry circles. 13. S. NT. S .— DER STYLE AND BUSINESS.

The work of Allen and Arriett, two. wearers of the 3lue^ who turned in firsts where they had hot even been hoped for, gave Belling-ham the lead which Cheney could not overcome. Allen-won both the pole vault and/broad jump while Ar-nett tiurned in five points in the discus.

The calibre of the Tennis and Baseball teains is high, perhaps the best yet turned out-by the school. The baseball teain has yet to lose a conference game. But all in all, the 1927 -Tri-Norinal athletic carnival has iriipressed itself upon the spectator as one of the finest sports arid sportsmanship exhibitions to be seen./ /. Bellingham Normal accords all honor; to her athletes and to the effort s Of Coaches Carver and Keeriey. The. feat of bringing^ ta Beilingham four out of five championships is truly a great one. The athletic successes of the year 1926-1927/will long be reniembered.
