Because of the great demand for diction training among teachers, the usual class limit of 24 has been lifted for the summer term.

Given an Opportunity The Schools WILL Do It With the increasing responsibility placed upon the schools in the way of character and * physical development, we canhot help but feel that in order to do all thatj $ f are asked to do, we must have a longer school year. Our present scliool term of 180 days is a great advance over what prevailed in some sections years ago Unfortunately of late, die figure has tended to stalemate at that point. Well-trained teachers are coming forth m increasing numbers. In a few years die level of preparation in the state of Wash-ngton will be very high. Why, then, can't we give these teachers an opportunity to do a real job? * The public is expecting more and more of the school. Lengthening the term of instruction will give educators an opportunity to really do what is asked of mem. You'll Never Be Much Younger Dr. Lucy Kangley used to make her . students gasp when she advised them to do a great deal of outside reading while in college. According to her, teachers in the field seldom had the necessary time. Like so many another idea Dr. Kangley drove home in her brilliant way, this, we, after four years of teaching, have found to be only too true. Admirably reviewed elsewhere on this page is John Steinbeck's powerful "The Grapes of Wrath?' Allow us to recommend Dr. Kangley's thought and "The Grapes of Wrath." Proud and Pleased As Punch We are proud and pleased as punch to find that so many capable people have vol-untered to work for the Collegian. On the staff we have three former editors: Joan Hoppe, Rex Rolle, and Clarence Soukup; and three former business managers (and they, too, can write): Victor Dickinson, Bill Ridder, and Nancy Jane Smith. Donovan Reeve is carvng his: inimitable way through the linoleum again. In addition there are almost a dozen other willing and able reporters who have already made things hum. The WWC faculty and staff have been more.than willing to help. In fact we almost are, to paraphrase one Hashimura Togo, "suffocated with it," but hoi what a grand feeling that is. FOLLOW THE BIRDS TO VICTORIA Then There's Always The Weather Our pet 999 about the weather: if summer falls on a Sunday this year, let's go down to the beach and have a picnic. Visit the New World's Oldest City, July 4, in "A Trip Abroad in a Day" The Grapes of Wrath Here and There By c,oire L Boys Last week cocky Nippon was again having fun twisting the old British Lion's tail. The tormentors twist this time consisted of blockading the British and Stench concessions in Tientsin. So far the old Lion has just blinked his eyes and. given his disturber a menacing look. By the end of the week he will probably rise up and deal a telling blow to his offender. Wanting no trouble with the United States, Japan is allowing the 400 Americans living in the British and French concessions to pass- the blockade without difficulty. Practically all business has stopped, and very, little fresh food supplies have been allowed to pass the blockade. Japan declares she will strengthen her blockade further still unless England stops giving aid to the Chinese. V V SPANISH REFUGEES AND GOLD Generalissimo. Franco would like very much to get his hands on $200,000,000 in gold left in French banks by the former Republican government. France has informed Franco that the refugee problem must be settled before she will return the gold. In addition they expect a settlement by September of this year. The original number of 500,- 000 refugees harbored in southern France has been whittled down to 350,000. Nine thousand former Spanish soldiers have joined the French Legion rather than return to Franco for punishment. Three shiploads have already gone to Mexico and others are expected to leave shortly. The French gov-, eminent, has spent 130,000,000 thus far caring for the refugees. * .. V V ROCKETS AND MINERALS Sometime during the 30th century from some point in the United States large ultra-streamlined rockets will swish dizzily through space and come to a screaming stop in Antarctica. Aboard these rockets will be workmen, mostly miners, who will dig into the frozen strata for the last untapped source of valuable mineral resources left in the world. Fantastic, you say? Well maybe. Regardless of the absurdity of the rocket story, last week in Washington plans were being laid to establish claims to large portions of Antarctica.' With the help of Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd, Lincoln Ellsworth, and 200 men, the expedition will be government- sponsored. President Roosevelt has requested Congress to appropriate $340,000 to finance the expedition. England, Norway, France, and Germany, have already taken the trouble to make international claims. Already, mineralogists have found coal, iron, copper, and titanium. So if any rugged, ambitious young American desires new frontiers, let him look to Antarctica. Campi Coast to Coast By Winnie Rittenberg Between forty and fifty U.

Reviewed by Nancy Jane Smith Steinbeck has been called unpredictable by his critics. No two books have been, so far, at all alike. There is, however, an undercurrent of similarity which flows through them all . . .the proletarian theme . . . the gentle frankness which occasionally becomes robust, but never really offensive. In Grapes of Wrath he has voiced the' indistinct rumbling of the new and spreading - urge to mass survival. Here he has breathed *• life into people of whom we have read rather unconcernedly in the newspapers. He has made them live with a realism which is fantastic to those of us who have lived our comfortable, commonplace lives, never-knowing the devastation of a dust storm, the insecurity, the hopelessness of being unwanted. These people, the Joads and others like them, were thrown into conditions of filth, disease, and starvation through no fault of their own. The harder they struggled to keep above the surface, the deeper they seemed to sink into the mire. The environment in whiqh Steinbeck matured has colored his writing. Because he is a Californian, he writes with feeling the tone of the country; because he has worked he can understand the laborer of whom he writes; because he has been hungry, painfully, ---------- WWCollegian - 1939 June 23 - Page 3 ---------- \ip7.

While in San Francisco the Millers visited the Golden Gate International exposition, which, while only one-tenth the size of the New York World's fair, Dr. Miller considered very attractive, a harmonious whole in a delightful setting. Mrs. Miller stayed in southern California visiting friends and relatives and to attend the Northern Baptist convention in Los Angeles. Continuing his trip eastward, the veteran WWC educator toured the Carlsbad caverns, stopped in New Orleans, and visited in North Carolina. His greatest thrill he experienced while at the simple, yet expressive tomb of George Washington. A bit of personal satisfaction was experienced in the Library of Congress where among the 7,OOQ,Q0Q volumes, Dr. Miller's four were catalogued. Another thrill came to Radio city in New York where Dr. Miller and a nephew participated in a television broadcast.

Inclement weather is the reason ascribed to the. decision to confine sports activities to the PE building until the middle of July. The sport program will consist of all star teams composed of such greats and near greats as Harold Nelson, Russ Eyer, Dannie Gagnon, Jack Millard, and stars of other days, both varsity and intramural. These fellows and all others who are interested will turn out every afternoon at 4:20 in the PE building. Those who are in shape will try to retain that schoolgirl figure, and those who have been letting themselves go will try to lose, those buffet fronts. Two games are scheduled with the U of W summer stars who are being coached by Jack ^Torney. Tentative dates for these two encounters have been set for Wednesday, June 28, at Seattle, and Thursday, July 6, at Bellingham. The men who are tojplay in these games will be picked lby Coach Lappenbusch from those turning out at 4:20. Since the time is so short it is imperative that anyone aspiring to a position on the team commence showing up for scrimmage immediately. P o t s h o t S Engebretsen For the benefit of those who are new at WWC, a little explanation of the physical education setup may be in order. Since Coach Sam Carver is on leave of absence this summer the men's PE program is in charge of Coaches Lappenbusch and Mc- Gee. Lappy will have charge the first half of the quarter and then he has a month's vacation before taking up football practice in the fall. Lappy coaches tennis daily at 8:40 and will coach the all-stars in basketball every afternoon at 4:20. An attendant will be in the locker room at these hours and also at 2 o'clock to furnish equipment to all who wish to avail themselves of the physical education facilities. Besides basketball and tennis, one may play badminton or ping pong. Tennis, of course,-is played on the old courts which are located across High street from the library or on the newer ones behind the PE building. Ping pong and badminton are played in the building. There is no charge for equipment aside from the fees which you have already paid. Tennis players must furnish ^their own rackets and tennis balls and shoes. Those playing basketball, ping pong, or badminton need furnish only their gym shoes. . All right you old men, you young men, you fat.men, you thin men, you married men, you single men-let's turn out and suit up and get back a little of that old fire!

As an accompanist, LaForge has the reputation of being the one in America whose name has box office value. He received all his training in America. Miss Strange is at the Lamont school in Denver at the present time studying with Mr. and Mrs. Lhevinne who are outstanding exponents of two-piano work. During alternate summers Miss Scott spends a month in each of these, Alaska towns: Ketchikan, Juneau, and Fairbanks. While in Alaska she works only with piano teachers. Added to the Industrial Arts staff for the present session is Kindschy, principal of the elementary school of Tumwater, Washington. Replacing Don Bushell, who is now in California, is Smith, a graduate of the University of Washington and member of the Ballard high school faculty. He will teach music and orchestra. Ullin, graduate of WWC and former football star, now teaching at Rainier elementary school in Seattle, will assist Loye McGee'i with the summer recreation program. Heading the Collegian staff in the capacity of both editor and faculty adviser, is Dornblut, a degree graduate of WWC, and member of the staff of the Alderwood elementary school at Alderwood Manor, Washington.

Unseen They Suffer Unheard They Ciy In Agony TheyLinger In Loneliness They Die Thus reads the sign draped from the information table in front of Miller Hallnext to a simulated cage, in which a student sits motionless with a brown monkey's mask over her head. A sign on the cage reads, "75 hour vigil for the primates in Miller Hall." It's all part of a protest carriedout by 15 people concerned about the well-being of research animals in laboratories across the nation,and specifically, the eight primates used for experiments in the basement of Miller Hall. The group,which calls itself the Animal Rights Campaign of Whatcom County, will trade off six-hour shifts in thecage until the rally in Red Square Friday when the simulated captive will be freed, and various speakerswill be presented. "We're trying to show people what it would be like to live in a cage," said Cheryl Piatt,a Bcllingham commercial artist who organized the event. The experiments in Miller Hall commonly havebeen the cause of much protest by students who want to know what type of experiments are being carried out. Merle Prim of the psychology department, who is in charge of the primate research, is commonlycriticized for being rather secretive about the experiments. Piatt said Prim's research is funded withtaxpayers' money, and therefore, the public has a right to know what he is doing in his lab. ButRichard Thompson, chairman of the psychology department, said, "The public and university are notcontributing a large amount of money to fund his lab." He said Prim is the chief contributor and thepsychology department provides only "incidental support." Plait explained her reasons for objecting to the animal experimentation at Western while sitting in the cage Tuesday afternoon. She said it is not fairthat information about the experiments is kept "undercover" and believes Prim "must have something to hide," because he often refuses to answer questions about the experiments, and has not allowedthem to read his research proposals. But Wednesday, Prim did answer questions regarding hisexperiments. He would answer only in writing because he is cautious of being misinterpreted. He said,"Most accusations that I have encountered have come from...lhosc who are ignorant of what I am doing (or) ...those who have a moral stance which docs not accept that live animal research should beaccomplished at this university or any university." â€¢"' â€¢ He said one of the main reasons entrance tothe primate lab is restricted is because monkeys arc susceptible to tuberculosis and can not recoveronce inflicted. The simple solution to this problem is to lock . humans out of the lab. Those whooppose any animal research "do not accept any factual argument that what I do has value," he said. Andso, "There is little that can be gained from a discussion with (them)." Brochures distributed near thedemonstration â€” see ANIMALS, p.2 U.S.-Japan trade 'problem': interpretation, consul says By TimMillard staff reporter A recent charge that Japan flooded the United States with semi-conductors inviolation of a previous trade agreement should not be allowed to destroy relations between the two"greatest trading countries in the world. At least that's the opinion of the Consul-General of Japan,Shigenobu Nagai, as stated during a lecture Tuesday in the Library Presentation Room. Nagai said thecombined total of the United States' and Japan's Gross National Products account for one-third of theworld's GNP. And trade between the two is about one-quarter of the world's total trade, so a trade warbetween the two countries would have a tremendous world effect. Because of the great economicpower of the two countries, many Japanese consider the United States-Japanese, bi-lateral relationshipto be the most important one in the world. "We must solve this (trade issue) with high conscienceand care based on partnership," Nagai said. The problem is one of interpretation, he said. TheJapanese do not think they unloaded loo many conductors but instead think the U.S. conductors couldnot compete. He pointed to the high value of the dollar within the last several years as a contributingfactor. It made U.S. products much more expensive and less competitive on the world market. This isbecoming a current problem for the Japanese with the large gains the yen has had lately against theworld market. Nagai said currently the U.S. trade deficit with Japan is $58.6 billion, the largestimbalance the United States has with any single country. He quickly pointed out the United States hastrade deficits with most countries. Canada is â€¢second to Japan at $23.3 billion. Newly industrializedAsian count r i e s such as South Korea, Singapore and Taiwan combine for $36 billion. The European nations combine for $26 billion, and Latin America is at $13.6 billion. The global total for 1986 cameto a deficit of $170 billion. He said Japan has a growing awareness, to cooperate in fixing a mutualproblem. Work currently is being done to open new market areas, increase domestic demand and makeeconomic structural adjustments. Nagai also talked about the economic relationship between Japanand Washington State. Washington is second among the states in the amount of Japanese trade with14 percent. California is first at 33 percent. In 1985, Washington imported $9.2 billion from Japan whileexporting $3.5 billion. Although it appears to be a large imbalance, he said 70 to 80 percent ofimports are "unloaded here and are transported to the midwest or elsewhere." Of Washingtonexporters to Japan, Boeing, Co. ranked top in- 1985 with $7 billion. Japan is B o e i n g ' s largestoverseas customer, Nagai said. A cooperative project now is underway between Boeing and Japan tobuild a mid-size, commercial plane with costs shared equally. Investment in Washington hasincreased in the last three years, Nagai said. Presently, $350 million is poured into the state withmost of it going to high tech and fishing industries. â€¢ â€¢ â€¢ â€¢â€¢ By Clay MartinillilBiBBiiHiiBH^^fciH B^i^BiiiiiiiiiBiiiiisii liillliiliii^HiJ^BB(iii ^BIWlittipHiiB^^ISIM(||Silll lliBiiBiifcHiiiiiBiiiiSHiBlBBIiBiiilllHBlIl! ftlliiilBlBiM^Bi^ili^Bl SiSSiilBiBliiHliliMIl |^gi|llBp|Â§|||J5^5i| IffilliiiMH^^BWBiiiffilliiiii^BiBifflil^BiliH^M HiiBHllllil^HBIIIHHi ^HHIBiH^BttMii^Hiliiii B^BBii^BBMiiiiiiiB^B HlB^BiilBiliiliBB^BII^HIilH^^B^liiiSlliBl iiili^^ttirtsiBiiiiiiBBi ---------- Western Front - 1987 April 24 - Page 2 ---------- 2 WESTERN FRONT FRIDAY, APRIL 24,1987 Western joins nation in animal rights rally ANIMALS,from p.l claim more than 300,000 lab animals are killed every day at a yearly cost of $3 billion oftaxpayers' money. "There is a basic dishonesty in some of the ways some of the animal activistspresent their claims," Thompson said. He said Prim's monkeys do not suffer in the way the activistshave suggested. "The only pain (the primates) suffer is the kind of pain all of us sufferâ€”bumps on thehead, stomach discomfort, etc. "I have absolutely no problem with public accountability," Prim said. "Isuspect that the health and welfare of the monkeys here at Western far exceeds that of most petowners." Currently, Prim is working on an experiment in concert with a U n i v e r s i t y of Washingtonneurosurgeon, in which primates will have electrodes surgically implanted in their brains to testcorrelation between brain activity and test performance. He said it is necessary to attach theelectrodes to the brain because,- "one can only predict where and how a given potential is generated byrecording from the brain itself. Prim said a campus-wide Animal Care Committee was formed torepresent the public in reviewing the research. They held a meeting early this week, but Piatt said, "Itwas monopolized by the researchers, and we didn't get a chance to ask any questions." Lois Garlick,who worked as a science technician at Western for 17 years and now is retired, said she was at themeeting to ask Prim about his failure to publish findings from his research. She said she was pre-empted and did not get a chance to ask. "If animals are going to be used in that way, some papersshould come from it. There's nowhere you can look up his work in t h e l i b r a r y , and t h a t 'sridiculous," she said. Piatt has similar arguments. She said People for the Ethical Treatment of Animalsinformed her from Washington D.C. that Prim has not published any of his findings since 1970. Primcontradicted this. He said the results of a joint project with neurosurgeons at the University ofWashington were published at the 1983 annual ncuros-ciences meeting in Cincinnati, and the resultsof his two-year stay at Stanford University currently are being prepared for publication. Thompson said,"Whether or not he has published has very little to do with the merits of the experiments." At the veryleast, students will learn from them, he said. "We're very careful about car research. Most of it isbecause we don't like to see animals suffer, not only because of ethical reasons, but because ofselfish reasonsâ€”unhappy animals don't make good subjects." dov next to going there, is to hearsomebody talk fi8urc Â°"f t h c rationale of the store.

"I don't think we should begene splicing because it's not what God intended," said Thcrese Pope, a student and former-member ofStudent Catholic Involvement. "We're fiddling around with things we shouldn't be fiddling with." Popesaid thc Catholic Church teaches that humans are designed the way God intended, in his own image.Thc policy, adopted by the U.S. Commerce Department's Patent and Trademark Office, will permit newforms of animal life, application of new traits in plants and animals and mixing between animal, plant,microbe and human genes. Pope said she believes gene splicing used in agriculture to breed betteranimals is wrong. "Agriculture of this kind promotes Darwin's Theory, 'survival of the fittest.' We'rerushing things in not accepting the natural course of life." On t h e o t h e r h a n d , a Lutheran priest atWestern said he supports the creation of new life through gene splicing and commends the scientificwork of biotechnologists. "I respect a guy who knows so much, applies his knowledge and comes outwith more awe than he had going in," said Rev. James Stender, a priest at Shalom Center, formerlyCampus Christian Ministries. S t e n d e r , f o r m e r l y a pharmacology student at Indiana UniversityMedical Center in Indianapolis, said, "We have to use what is known to help people, and that's asacred task." Stender was in contact with biogeneticists while at IUMC. There he became fullyconvinced that they regulated their work consistently and were "ethics conscious." ' "Thc U.Sgovernment went around asking colleges to do research on chemical warfare, and they offered a lot ofmoney," Stender said. "Right away, scientists protested that. . .and anytime they saw the net results of their research going to military use, they phased the research out." Almost all genetic research inWestern's biology department deals with plants, as opposed to animal research, said a departmentspokesman. Bob Harrison, an ordained minister with United Ministries in Higher Education on campus,said all religions will debate the issue of new animal life-form patents for the future. "Religion and thechurches are going to look at the relationship between science and them; selves, said Harrison of the Shalom Center. "There are a lot of new theological issues that'll take time to resolve . . . and it'severyone's responsibility." Bushue leaves Western and WSL BUSHUE, from p. 1 lobby organizationknown as Western Political Action Committee.

Although Wyble said he was informed of Bushue's resignation April 9, Echelbargcr and Wood had not heard of it until Wednesday. Echelbarger approves of thc decision.

Most of the veterans present for the name reading in Red Square Wednesdaywere Vietnam veterans, but also present were veterans of World War II and the Korean War. The wecj:-!ong "Dialogue on Peace and War" was an attempt to bring the military, Veterans of Foreign Wars andpeace advocates together to share their views about past and present eras of peace and war in thenation's history. The National Guard's 2S6th engineers parked military equipment on High Street Tuesday for their part in the week's es'erils. "We are seeing the military on a college campus for the first timesince the early '70s, and then they were being met by student protesters," said Randy Hansen of theAssociated Students' Veteran's Outreach Center. College students' reactions about war and warveterans are much different today than in the 1960s. Few students objected to the National Guard'spresence on campus. "It is great to be here and able to hold this memorial without protest interrupting,"said Ben-nie Dickenson, a Vietnam veteran who displayed the flag during the memorial. Veteransdeserve recognition, and they are finally getting it, he said. "You might not agree with the politics (ofthe Vietnam era) but it is important to honor the memory of the people who sacrificed their lives for whatthey believed in," said Barb Hoyman, a Western student. "I was called a baby killer and I was spat onwhen I returned from Vietnam in June of 1970. The ribbons I earned over there I have thrown away,"Dickenson added. "Until two years ago, I was afraid to admit being a Vietnam veteran; now I am proudto be a veteran." Many Vietnam veterans have emotional scars that never will heal. About 60,000 died in action in Vietnam. Twice as many Vietnam veterans died after the war. Many of those committedsuicide, said Emmeit Early, a psychologist who has worked extensively with veterans. The mortality rate of Vietnam veterans after the war is much higher than that of World War II and Korean War veterans, hesaid. The attitude of the nation was vastly different toward World War II veterans than Vietnam WhidbeyIsland Murine Color Guard presents the colors in front of the Performing Arts Center to open "Dialogue on Peace and War" Monday. Photos by Mike G\vynn Veterans, said Harry Monroe, a World War II veteranwho served 27 months on a destroyer in the South Pacific and fought in 11 major battles. "In my war, wcwere heroes for at least a year afterward. I couldn't buy a meal or a drink for myself, someone wouldalways buy it for me," he said. The psychological difficulties that lead to the high mortality rate occurmore frequently in veterans involved in the heaviest fighting in Vietnam during 1968 and 1969, Early said.Many veterans have a need to talk about what happened in Vietnam to release the emotions and stressthat occurs after being in combat, he said. For many of the Vietnam veterans present, the name-readingmemorial in Red Square was part of a healing process that allowed them to communicate their emotionsto Western students. "We were the same age as most college students when we went to Vietnam,"James Green, a Vietnam veteran said. "Vietnam would be the greatest loss if nothing is learned from it,"Early said. It is very important to the veterans to communicate their emotions to the students oncampus, because their age group will go into the next conflict, Green said. "I didn't know the history of Vietnam before I went into the war," said Ron Halfhill, who flew helicopter missions in Vietnam. "I wasraised with the mentality to fight the good fight and went to Vietnam to help win the war," he said. "I nowthink the war was unwinnable, because the Vietnamese were fighting for their homeland. We would havehad to kill off the Vietnamese people to win. "If I had one message to give to students, I would say not to be simply led into combat because some vague political figure says to go." Today is the last day of theforum, a day dedicated to peace issues. Speakers include a variety of community leaders, professorsand ministers who will speak during the day individually, in panel discussions and in audienceparticipation sessions on the theme of world peace, said Lynn Allen, volunteer organizer. Other eventstoday include the movie "Under the Nuclear Umbrella" at 11 a.m., a panel discussion titled "Imagining the Real" at noon, Erin Corday's music at 2 p.m., a video tilled "No Frame, No Boundaries" at 2:30 p.m. and another showing of the multi-media presentation "Vietnam Gencration-a Media Meltdown" at 5 p.m. Allevents arc in the Viking Union, except the media presentation, which will be shown in Lecture Hall 4.1968: Pvt. James Green is at the controls of an Armored Personnel Carrier (APC) near Pleiku, in thecentral highlands of Vietnam. Tuesday, on W e s t e r n 's ' campus, Green once again had his handson the controls of an APC, for the first time in 19 years. He shuddered. "I remember the [ire fight inwhich I became temporarily deaf," he said. James still has problems hearing. "We were on a r o u t ine scarch-and-destroy patrol with the 176th. Ten tanks. Ten APCs. I was driving the fifth one in line. We rounded the corner of an incredibly brushy tea plantation. "Right in front of us was a barracks, and itwasn't ours. The fires inside were still hot. Charlie (Vietcong) was nearby. Our officers got excited andwanted to find him." They did. Sooner than they expected. "The lead tank got only 100 yards beforeCharlie launched a rocket-propelled grenade into it. The second tank in line exploded. M-16 fire openedup all around. Charlie was everywhere. "We called an artillery unit and had them shell as close to us aswe dared." He pointed to the bookstore War memories linger in shattered optimism Vietnam veteranJames Green reads a list of 1,500 Washington residents killed in the Vietnam conflict. The memorialreading was conducted Wednesday in Red Square. from the entrance to the Viking Union. "Shells werehitting that close," he said. "The noise caused me to become completely deaf for five days." Greenrelaxed and leaned back in the driver's scat of the APC. "I can't believe I didn't die in a seat like thisone." About 50 days later, Green contracted malaria and was sent home after spending eight months in Vietnam. "I remember when my mother came to sec mc in the hospital when I got home, Just the lookon her face. I was so frail from not eating in 14 days that I could barely crack a smile." Green attendedmany different colleges in the next few years, including Fairhaven, from which he graduated in 1975.Yet, something in his life still was missing. "The bonds joining me to society and the optimism I had forAmerica's future before I went to Vietnam were shattered. "I couldn't cope with society and moved to thewoods out on Mount Baker Highway for solitude." Optimism returned slowly for Green, and lastDecember he was on Western's campus with the idea of a presentation about the Vietnam generation. ---------- Western Front - 1987 April 24 - Page 4 ---------- 4 WESTERN FRONT SPORTS FRIDAY, APRIL 24,1987 Lacrosse scoops win By The Front staff TheWestern men's lacrosse team got back on track this weekend, taking two games from eastern rivalsWhitman College and Washington State University. Last weekend's losses in the Western StateInvitational Tournament in Sonoma, Calif, quickly were forgotten as the Vikings defeated Whitman 11-6Saturday and WSU 12-8 the next day. Western shot out to a quick, three-goal lead against Whitmanwith a strong transition game and never looked back. The team strengthened its lead to 10-0 at halftimebehind the solid play of goalie Bob Burns and defenders Bob Miller, Mike Nilson and Troy "Bubba" Neal. "Burnsy (Burns) played tremendously in the first half," Western midfielder Tim Bishop said.

Western usually substitutes four three-man lines during a game, but with the commanding lead,decided to experiment with eight lines to give new players a chance to compete. "We kept changinglines," Bishop said. "It's hard to keep the same flow going." "We relaxed when we thought wc had thegame in hand," midfielder Fletch Newland said. Sunday, a much-improved WSU squad gave Westerna tougher match. The two teams traded goals in the first half with Western taking a narrow 6-5 halftimeadvantage. It took Western until the fourth quarter to open up the lead for good, scoring back-to-backgoals to secure the victory. Cuomo again led all scorers with eight goals, while Wisman tallied the otherfour. Miller said WSU has improved since last year and was not a team to take lightly. WSU recentlyhired a new coach to improve the team's offensive and defensive skills. Using new techniques, theywere able to score three goals by quickly switching players, leaving Western a man short defensively."They have a new coach that's really working with them," Bishop said. "When they switched players, itwas confusing." Miller said Western will work hard on defense this week in practice, especially themidfielders.

Samish Way Young tennisclub nets loss The Western men's tennis team lost to powerful Bellevue Community College Wednesday in a tough-fought match. The Vikings won two of three doubles matches but were swept by BCC in thesingles. "I was impressed with how the guys hustled, especially George Seally in the third singlesmatch," player-coach David Luchtel said. "He played tough, hustled and took it to three games."Luchtel said the team is starting to get on its game and should - be doing well in another week or two. Teammate Mark Woodke agreed. "We just have to keep playing against good teams," he said. Theteam is made up of many freshmen, and as they get more playing time, they gain more confidence,Luchtel said. BCC always is first or second in the league and usually competes with Green RiverCommunity College for the title, he said. The men arc scheduled to play a make-up match at 2 p.m.today on their home court against Skagit Valley College. Students are encouraged to come and cheerthem on. The women's tennis team, meanwhile, is having trouble finding opponents. Two teams in the league folded, leaving only a few matches left on Western's schedule. Everett Community College andSVC withdrew their teams from competition for the rest of the season. The women's next match isscheduled for Thursday at Western against Shoreline Community College.

Parked in front of them on High Street were military vehicles, atent and National Guard soldiers in camouflage uniforms. No protestors, name calling or anti-war signswere evident. No one seemed to think the visit unusual. But it was. For the first time in the nation sincethe early 1970s, the military appeared on a college campusâ€”our campus~as part of "Dialogue onPeace and War" sponsored by the Associated Students' Veterans Outreach Center this week. Studentsseemed comfortable with the military's presence, just as they may have been in 1954. Vietnam, the focus of the "war" side of this week, is either forgotten or misunderstood by today's students. Movies such as"Top Gun" have glorified and restored the public's faith in military power. Twenty years ago, the VietnamWar couldn't be mentioned on a college campus without sparking anger and protest. Yet Wednesday,the names of hundreds of Washingtonians killed in Vietnam echoed through Red Square in a memorialreading. They were heard like the background splashes of Fisher Fountain as students passed throughuninterested, their minds on the next day's accounting exam. Why doesn't anyone care? History hasmuch to teach this generation. If we disregard the lessons of war, how will we prevent it from happeningagain? We beseech students to take an interest in today's events and the messages from those whohave lived through one mistake. It doesn't take much for an international incident to become anational incident, or for a national incident to become a nation's tragedy. We have the opportunity to learn from our nation's past mistakes. The 60,000 who died in Vietnam don't have the luxury. Postscript...Morning news for your breakfast entertainment.

Webster, Carole Wicdmeyer, John WybleMemory lingers Nicaragua: Vietnam again? Names of dead soldiers crackled over a microphone. Morethan 1,000 were named, but few people who passed by the peaceful demonstration in Red SquareTuesday spent any time listening. The Veterans' Outreach Center was reading the names ofWashington soldiers who were killed in Vietnam, while people ignored them and had their owndiscussions about the Seattle Sonics and t he opposite sex. Seemingly, these arc more intense topics. Why should anybody care about Vietnam anymore? One veteran said maybe we should care becausemany men who died in Vietnam were no older than 19 or 20--the same age as many of the studentsjaunting through the square, ignoring the vets message. Spring survival tips William J. Freeberg staffreporter Vietnam lingers in the minds of Americans as the war they would like to forget, while Nicaragua and El Salvador are the wars they refuse to acknowledge. This refusal may slap many youths in theface when they receive draft notices because the wars in Central America no longer arc considered"covert" by our government. The similarities between Vietnam and Central America are staggering.Troops and advisers were installed in Vietnam before it was declared a legitimate war. The politicalclimate changed and the government flouted Vietnam as a war against communism. These sameundercover tactics continue in Central America. Our government funds the con-tras covertly, subvertsprogressive change and murders people. When this situation extends beyond covert action, young menwill fight another war without a purpose. The names were read in Red Square. Only a handful o[ peopleshowed their respect by standing through a significant part of the memorial service. We are beingwarned not to make the same mistake in Central America that we made in Vietnam. Twenty years fromnow, one of you may be reading the names of men who died in Nicaragua. Then maybe more people willgive a damn, or at least take 10 minutes from their life to stand and mourn those we have lost. Take lifeeasy this quarter It's not too late to take the steps necessary to make this spring quarter the best ever.I've been noticing what my fellow students have been doing to gear up for what is t he last quarter ofthe year for most of us, and I believe all can benefit from sharing their wisdom. First of all, take fewercredits. Give yourself a break! If you have to, drop a couple of classes. The weather's getting warmer,you'll probably get an incurable case of spring fever halfway into the quarter, and you're basically goingto need as much time as possible to lay around outside in the sun. Seven to 12 credits should be yourmaximum class load. Any more than that, and you may find yourself actually spending spare t i m e in th e l i b r a r y doing homework while your friends are off playing softball or waving at you betweenFrisbee tosses across Red Square. Another imperative and popular spring-quarter activity is spending every spare moment be- Wendy Staley staff reporter tween classes in Red Square around FisherFountain. Be sure to wear your shades and, if possible, find a dry spot around the rim of the fountainto sit 4 gt;n. From this perch, casually wave to recognizable classmates passing by and occasionallycall out "Hey!" or "How ya doin"?" to those you know by name. Don't do homework while you're sittingin the spray, though. You don't want anyone to think you're taking more than 12 credits, do you?Investing in a hibachi or some other barbecue apparatus also is a good step toward making your springquarter tops. Socializing en the deck or patio among smoke-drenched, burger-eating students is a mustthis time of year. Stocking up on cheap beer might not be a bad idea, either; all that barbecue saucecan make people thirsty enough to swallow almost anything. One more a c t i v i t y you definitelyshould not be without this spring quarter is visiting a tanning booth three to four times weekly. Youwouldn't want the sickly, natural coloring of your legs exposed for all to see, would you? That would beespecially awful because all the people you know have been tanning since December and look likethey just arrived after a lifetime of living on nude beaches in Jamaica. You couldn't possibly leteveryone know you've got actual tan lines or, worse yet, that your skin's as pale as the pages of youraccounting book. Justify these and other, equally delinquent spring-quarter activities byreminding yourself that spring quarter is the perfect time to relax, kick back and kiss self-disciplinegood-bye. By following these recommendations, you'll have a spring quarter you'll be able to tell yourgrandkids about with pride. ---------- Western Front - 1987 April 24 - Page 7 ---------- FRIDAY, APRIL 24,1987 WESTERN FRONT 7 Letters The Front welcomes letters about all points ofview.

Court decisionunfairly favors The Front: Newsweek recently printed an article titled "A Woman's Day in Court," whichoutraged me and motivated this letter. "A landmark decision lets employers favor women andminorities," the article read, implying that this favoring was to override the objective ability of aprospective employee (as evidenced by Diane Joyce's being hired over two other male applicantswho scored higher on their interviews, on the sole basis that she was a woman). I feel a letter to thispaper will be worthwhile as an appeal to all who attend this institution and make any kind of claim ofallegiance to reason and rationality. Please understand that reward must go to the most competent and able, for if it doesn't, what reward is there in being competent and able? I know this soundsredundant, but it is frightening to consider how widely this premise is ignored. lliilBllilliililiilisiiisiiiiillillsiiiliii In such decisions as Fulilove (1980), Sheet Metal Workers (1986), Alabama State Police (1987) and the recent decision in Joyce's favor, the U.S. Supreme Court has compromised on thispremise where there can be no compromise. Sheer objective ability of an individual no longer isconsidered a priority according to the U.S. Supreme Court. Any employer who hired independently ofability and passes judgements based on irrelevant conditions is a fool, and not only takes second-best,but also gives the frightening message to the able that it is not to their benefit to be better. If I were awoman or a minority member, I would be outraged at such decisions that implied that I had not (andpossibly could not have) achieved anything for myself; any achievement I claim is only a legislatedcharity made possible by my white, male benefactors. Is this kind of legislation supposed to be for the long-term benefit of women and minority members? I hail Supreme Court Justice Antonio Scalia'sstatement of dissent against the Joyce decision that summed it up scathingly well: "...The court today completes the process of converting (civil rights law) from a guarantee that race or sex will not be thebasis for employment determination to a guarantee that it will." Think for a long while on the implications of this decision. My appeal is made. Aaron Murphy QaflBM6VNRmHNabnKM gt;TCw! Â«63i SALE-PRICED ON ARISTA PATRICE RUSHEN WATCH OUT!

I realize your photographers must double as students and often are in classes whennewsworthy events transpire, and I am not suggesting they compromise their academic standards in any way. I am suggesting, however, that they begin to take pictures of something besides small childrenplaying on or around campus art. I don't care how great the action or how sharp the focusâ€”I do not likechildren and am tired of seeing them traipsing about the paper's front page in almost largc-as-life photos. If fluff photos must be used, can't they at least contain actual students, faculty, staff or visiting artistsor dignitaries? Even a sports photo would be more welcome. Kim Washburn Views not well not taped, but rather committed to memory and brief notes.) In particular, I wish to correct my reported criticism ofcommer-cial fiction. I'm afraid the opinions attributed to me reflect more Mr. Keeling's word choice andviewpoint than my own. We discussed my many positive experiences connected with writing andpublishing and also a few difficulties. The negative aspects seem to have been all that Mr. Keelingrecalled. I certainly have no intention of quitting writing, as I presently am involved with different stagesof three new novels. I also would hope that Mr. Keeling, as a fellow writer, could avoid the old trap ofpitting "literature" versus "commercial." After all, much of our classic art and literature was, and is,commercial. As a writer, I have a great respect for the power of words. I found the (hopefullyunintentional) manipulation of words in Mr. Keeling's article subtly disturbing for a reason pertainingto more than this particular piece. An ideal of journalism I feel worth maintaining is that of impartialpresentation of the news. Sara Stamey wmmmmmmmm represented The Front: I enjoyed my recentconversation with Front reporter/editor .

The Associated Students' Board of Directors voted Wednesday to include a referendum on the upcoming ballot that states: "Shallappropriate legal action be pursued regarding the State Legislative Budget to achieve per-student funding at Western equal to that at other state regional universities?" Although precedent for a state agency tosue the state does exist, the board has not decided what type of legal action it will t a k e if s t u d e n ts pass the referendum, said Dan Wood, vice president for External Affairs. The possibilities for the typeof action against the state include declaratory action, in which the court would give a specific ruling, arestraining order or a lawsuit. A restraining order would allow the suit to continue after the legislativesession ends. The board has not decided what may be the best course of action, Wood said. AboutS7.3 million would have to be added to the state legislative budget if the court decides Western should receive equal funding, he said. Tuition also could be reduced equal to the amount needed for equality.The courts could deny it. If the referendum is approved by the voters, the AS Board would requestWestern's Board of Trustees to ask Western's Assistant Attorney General Wendy Bohlke to represent them, Wood said. It would put Bohlke in the position of suing the state, which provides her salary. Ifthe Board of Trustees denies the AS Board permission to acquire Bolke's services, Wood said the ASBoard can pursue the lawsuit as Associated Students', Incorporated. AS, Inc. is a nonprofitorganization parallel, yet autonomous from the AS Board. Under state law, the AS board could not useits own money to take legal action against the state. As AS, Inc., the AS board no longer would sue asan agency of the state and therefore could use money from AS, Inc. Housing renewals approachProcedures have begun to house students currently living on campus who wish to return to residencehalls for the 1987-88 academic year. Renewal forms were sent to students April 15th and are due in t he Office of U n i v e r s i ty Residences by Monday: The renewal notices inform the housing office of astudent's intent to return to a residence hall the following year. The student also indicates his or heralternate choices in case the first choice is not feasible. "We really like students currently living in thehalls to stay, because then there is a balance of all ages and not just freshmen," said Kay Rich, interimdirector of t h e Office of U n i v e r s i ty Residences. The date Western receives a student's $50admission deposit is the main determinant of where that student will be housed. If a renewal form isreceived by the housing office after the deadline, however, priority is lost. Every year this seems tocreate the most problems, said Linda Valcnchenko, University Residences assignments coordinator.Building assignments, along with roommate request forms, will be sent to students May 7. Studentsattend a sign-up night May 21 at the hall they have been assigned, where they choose specific roomsthey wish to live in. If a student fails to sign up for a room, or if the room wanted is taken, theassignment is made by computer. The final agreement is due May 22, and once it is received by thehousing office, students arc obligated to keep it. If students wishing to cancel their agreements prior tooccupancy do so before Aug. 1, they will receive $60 of the initial S90 security deposit. Between Aug.1 and Sept. 1, S30 will be refunded. After Sept. 1, no refund will be available.

Pop Religion You can always count on an enormously hipmass of humanity to generate a new trend, lose the last vestiges of self-control over it and descendupon the next one before their credit cards get cold. In t h e t r i p p y - f l i p py psychedelic days of the'60s, baby-boomers were led by rock 'n'roll gurus to the joys of transcendental mind-expansion. Theyspent many hours cramped in lotus position chanting after that existential "om," but kept running intoreligious road blocks like tofu or drugs. Tired of spiritual side-trackings and ambiguous "uhmmms," they continued the quest for an effortless spiritual boost-a quick fix of faith. Thus, pop religion. Creating oneof these religions is even easier than practicing one, and considerably more profitable. All you need are: one slightly used celebrity spokesperson to conduct $500- a-weekend seminars, two bookcasesfull of his/her mental meanderings to sell at $3.95 a paperback, a bagful of ir-resistably cute trinkets, agentle smattering of Eastern philosophy, a television special and a catchy name. Shake well,simmer at 400 degrees, and serve lukewarm. This seemed like the perfect way to pay off our collegeloans, and maybe even earn a little extra to buy that Cuisinart we've been eyeing, so we immediatelyset about the basics: a name. All the really good ones already had been taken, but we eventuallydecided on one we thought was imaginative and distinct: Era Nouveau. We then hunted down acelebrity in need of a new career. Donny Osmond was perfect. He may not be able to emote oncelluloid like Shirley MacLaine, but he can conjure up eight elemental spirits at once who sing, "Don't Be Cruel" in full chorus. We immediately sent him to Jackson Hole, Wyo., to commune with a gurunamed. "Spike" who lives on the roof of a condominium. Spike put Donny in touch with his higher self,enabling him to "channel." To set our pop religion just a little apart from all the others, we had Donn-ofind a spirit from the future. He contacted an unemployed sanitation engineer from the year 2042,named Spud Wildflower. Spud gave our main mystic man some awesome revelations, most of whichwill be pub-l i s h e d in D o n n y ' s first autobiography, "The Spud in Me." Here are a few: --VannaWhite will be the first female president of the United States. -The need for television will be eliminatedby simply giving all potential television viewers frontal lobotomies. --Madonna and Sean Penn will have12 children, all of whom grow up to be Pulitzer-prize winning photographers. -The Chariot of the Gods isa '72 Pinto Lowrider with fuzzy purple dice hanging from the rear-view mirror and a plastic dog in theback with a head that bobs up and down. Mr. Wildflower also is a whiz at personal counseling, spittingout sage spiritual advice: "Never wash your hair with foreign beer," "Only wear the top of your pajamasbecause when you wear the bottom half your lower body disappears," and "Don't eat summer squashwhen you still have zucchini packets in your freezer." Because Donny has a weakness for Pez candyand a real undiscovered talent with organic vegetable dyes, Era Nouveau stresses Pez dispensers andtie-dyed objects as cosmic talismans. Era Nouveau shops will offer, at prices ranging from $1 to$1,000, delightfully fashionable Fruit-of-the-Loom T-shirts whipped through purple, red or blue dyes, todon when you're feeling bummed out and need a little nouveau lift: We call this being "tie-dyed tohappiness." â€” HIM il April 24, 1987 Cover graphic by Kelli Langan ACCENT magazine is a weekly pull-out supplement to The Western Front.

Fortunate- 1 ly, herscenes in the movie don't last long. The film manages to deal with relevant, controversial issues without becoming a dull documentary. Such subjects as animal experimentation, after-effects of nuclear war and unquestioning acceptance of authority are smoothly woven |into the plot without interrupting theflow of the fstory. "Project X" has an interesting script, likeable Icharacters and a fresh subject. OK, sothe conclusion tugs a little too strongly at the old heart Istrings. Overall, it's an enjoyable film, anddefinite-fly worth seeing. 'Academy5 lame-brained fun By Wendy Staley staff reporter "Police Academy IV" is the type of movie youj might want to see between exams during finals week. Only v/hile enduringextreme stress could you truly appreciate the movie's silly, brainless humor. The movie has a differenttheme from its Police Academy predecessors--"citizens on patrol"- but portrays more or less the same old characters performing the same old fraternity-style pranks and jokes. Some of these primitivepractical jokes are actually funny, however. I even caught myself laughing at a few of them. Duringone scene I found myself laughing at, Captain Harris (G.W. Bailey) discovering, too late that someonehas applied superglue to the mouthpiece of his megaphone, and blowtorches are required to removeit. In another stupidly humorous scene, mace is substituted for Harris' underarm deodorant. And a pigeon relieves itself more than once on Sgt. Sweetchuck. Many of the actors seem to have been chosen notbecause of any dramatic skill, but rather for verbal quirks that can be exploited. Sgt. Zed (BobcatGoldthwait) has a bizarre speech impediment-making him difficult to understand-accompanied by strange facial contortions. Sgt. Jones (Michael Winslow) uses his voice to imitate sounds such as megaphonestatic and background music. Sgt. Ducks speaks in an annoying high-pitched squeal. Most of us havelearned to beware of movies with titles ending in any number greater than "II," and in this case the ruleholds true. If you've seen any of the three previous "Police Academy" movies, you'll know what to expectfrom this one. Nothing much has changed in terms of style, scenery or script. A few interesting camerashots are one of the few things worth watching in "Police Academy IV." Near the beginning of the movie,skateboarders speed along the streets and through a parking garage and shopping mall. Some shotsof colorful hot-air balloons add to the good camera work. Obviously, this isn't a comedy for theextremely cultured. Even the least refined will find this film unstimulating. You may want to see thismovie if you're fed up with college profs probing your brain, and feeling nostalgic for high-school-levelhumor. Two students sit hunched over a board criss-crossed with lines, brows knit in concentration.After careful deliberation each places a pebble-sized black or white stone on a crosspoint, where thelines intersect. , l s it Zen chess? Alien checkers? Close. It is-Go, an ancient Chinese board game thatcombines elements of Eastern philosophy, war strategy and chess. Western sports a small butdedicated club of Go players. Started last fall by French ex-change student Laurent Notarianni, the clubis called Go Ban. Ban is the game board. Go has few rules. It is relatively easy to learn but nearlyimpossible to master, club member Heidi Steen said. The object of the game is to secure more territorythan the opponent. Territory is gained when the opponent's stones are surrounded and the "men" arecaptured. Conquering empty space, not the opponent, is the ultimate goal. Notarianni said helearned to play Go in a Bohemian bar in Paris. He was intrigued by the game's strategy andrequirement for intense concentration. "I need lots of concentration," he said. "Go is exercise foryour memory." Go also teaches patience and discipline, and gives insight into oneself and theopponent. Notarianni said he can tell how people are feeling by where they choose to place a stone." G o g i v e s you opportunities to find out how your mind works. I'm detail-oriented--! miss the broader picture," Steen said. Notarianni called Go a "psychological pressure game," and spoke of the need tosustain concentration and energy for a long time. An average game lasts about two hours. However,Japanese masters may play the same game for months. "Masters can recreate whole games frommemory. That is how they teach students," said Karin Lee, another member. Lee said she likes the mental involvement and the tactile sensations of Go. "Go is not just cerebraL.it is a sensualexperience too. The stones are extremely smooth and feel nice." Lee said although she is "not a war-oriented person," she enjoys Go's war-like stategies. "The object is to secure territory and the board isan actual battlefield," Lee said. Go began in China 5,000 years ago. Generals and kings played it tosharpen strategic battle skills. Eventually the Japanese aristocracy picked up the game and elevated itto a fine art, adding philosophy and creating the idea of winning without killing. Their aim was toconquer empty space. Notarianni said he has difficulty convincing students of the game's simplicity."People think you have to be really bright to play. You don't, it is easy to learn," he said. Most clubmembers previously played chess. They said Go is more interesting and requires more thought.Steen summed up the feelings of the players: "There is just something about Go...you really getinvolved." The Go Ban group meets every Friday at noon in Viking Union 219 and welcomes newmembers. ---------- Western Front - 1987 April 24 - ACCENT, page 4 ---------- 4 ACCENT Top air bands to vie for lip-sync crown By Jeremy Meyer staff reporter So you want to be arock'n 'roll star Well listen, son, and you'll go far Just get an electric giiitar, and take some time to leanthow to play â€”Tlie Byrds The Byrds described how to become a rock'n'roll star in the '60s, but in the'80s another way to become a rocker is to imitate one. Tonight at 8:30, as many as 17 bands will dojust that in the sixth annual Western Jam at the Viking Union. Each year since 1982, students from thedorms and off campus practice to perfect the onstage antics of their favorite musicians. They lip-synclyrics, dress up like the musicians and choreograph dance routines, to entertain the audience andimpress the judges. "This year we've really upped the prize money," said Jam coordinator TonyTrofimczuk. rrn Tâ€”r -Ua_I "You have to be crazy not to dig that reggae beat." This seems to be thetheme behind Almighty Dread, a Bellingham-based reggae band expanding its musical sound andscope. Almighty Dread was started about two years ago by vocalist Andy Oliver and bassist GaryHayden. The band was elastic at f i r s t with many different musicians accompanying Oliver andHayden. After a year, the two leaders found the talent they needed. The current version of the Dreadincludes lead guitarist John Hendow, keyboardist Paul Turpin, and drummer Dalton Davis. Haydensaid the band's music is upbeat, and many rock musicians find it backwards. Oliver said the rhythms in the Dread's music are difficult to i ' i ' i _ rrr play, requiring a precision not usually required by rock."Persistence pays off," Oliver said. "Many bars wouldn't let us play because it wasn't rock'n'roll, orbecause reggae groups smoke marijuana, but now gigs come to us." Almighty Dread is adding newdimensions to its previously reggae sound. The group has added a new brass section and apercussionist to create more of a calypso sound. "We hope to do about half reggae and half calypso inthe near future," Oliver said. The band also has utilized the gifted songwriting talents of Oliver andHayden. At a concert in the Fairhaven Lounge last Saturday, the Dread introduced "Tell Me," a brilliantlyarranged reggae ballad utilizing the band's new talent. Hayden said he's never heard of a songwritingteam that writes music quite like he and Oliver do. The best example of their songwriting is a songcalled "Prisoner of Love." "I played the opening riff to the 'Dragnet' TV show and Andy "Last year it was$125 for first place, this year it's $200," he said. Nash hall has sponsored the event since its beginning,Trofimczuk said, and contestants from Nash have won five out of the six years. "Last year thecontroversy was (that) all the judges lived, or were living in Nash Hall, but this year we're trying to getaway from judges 4 affiliated with the residence halls," Trofimczuk said. Randy Hurlow, resident dire etc and a member of Nash's entry, Devo, said the controversy shouldn't be blamed on the judc Nashalways wins, he said, be; cause the dorm gets more motivated for the competitioi the other halls."(Nash) spends more tir than the other halls," Hurlo Nash starts preparing 4 event earlier, so people InA iSE1 i â€¢ T ~ T ifr1 JS1 TÂ±T E?

Jennifer Stott, who is involved incoordinating the judging, said the controversy changed the way she chose the judges. "It does soundsuspicious, that's why I'm getting the students away from the judging." Trof imczuk said two of thejudges will be experienced judges from The Blue Max, a local bar that holds lip-sync contests similar toWestern Jam. Improved judging will produce a better show, he said. "With our efforts to get unbiasedjudges, it's going to be a lot fairer for these other bands. I think the best band will win." Entries includeDevo, Janet Jackson, Cyndi Lauper, Bruce Springsteen, The Steve Miller Band, Bon Jovi, Duran Duran,Spinal Tap, AC/DC and The Mup-pets. A few of the groups were formed by members of last year's Jam.Some Duran Duran members were in last year's Power Station, and some Bon Jovi members are fromthe reigning champs, Y T. Hurlow said the secret to winning is using a current song the audience isfamiliar with. Combine that with good costumes, and special effects and you could take home the $200,he said. Chris Toney, a member of Bon Jovi and veteran Jammer from '85's Autograph said, "We plan to put on a good clean show." He said the key to success is not making any mistakes and mouthing thewords correctly. "We're going to have a good time," Toney added. The criteria forjudging will be: lip-sync ability, showmanship, audience response and stage effects. Some of the rules include using no realmusical instruments, no strobe lights or quick-flashing lights, no pyrotechnic devices, no sociallyunacceptable behavior or lyrics, and no one under the influence of drugs or alcohol. The Western Jamkicks off Parent's Weekend at Western and Jam promoters believe parents will enjoy the show."lt givesthe parents an opportunity to see what type of activities students can be involved in," Trofimczuk said."It's special because it's the best of each hall. It's not going to be some sloppy performance up there. It's going to be good." Maybe one of the bands should imitate The Byrds' song, "So You Want to be a Rock and Roll Star," and change the lyrics to~ Soyou want to act like a rock'n'roll star Well, lip-sync son,and you'll go far Just get a cardboard guitar, and take some time to fake how to play W*-, ---------- Western Front - 1987 April 24 - ACCENT, page 6 ---------- 6 ACCENT FRIDAY, APRIL 24,1987 Sellingham grag/ucs Later Grafj/ycy * Typf-Aclltng Krausi-Ciimmcrcial Center Broadway Dupnnl : i 0 3 Elm St., llellinBham, H'A 9S225 (2061676-2J22 Macintosh Rentals LaserWriter Plusâ„¢ Total Resume Service Composing / Rewriting Editing /Typesetting Weoffer a complete Macintosh rental and support service, able to accomodate single-sided or double-sideddiskette formats.

You can break up your band, vowing you "shan't worktogether again," and either study philosophy or do a lot of drugs, maybe nod for a few years. The thingis, when you run out of money, you can always come "out of retirement." Reunion gigs are very much invogue right now; Aerosmith, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin and possibly the original members of KISS arejust a few of the many cashing in on nostalgia lately. râ€”Am usei*1 JoTOVttH Sunday FAMILY DAYAll day 'Parents accompanied by children Monday HAPPY HOUR 5pm to 7pm *AII customers TuesdayAFTER SCHOOL 3:30pm to 5pm *AII customers Wednesday LADIES DAY All day * Ladies, any aseThursday HAPPY HOUR 5pm to 7pm *AII customers Friday COUPLES NIGHT After 6pm *Womenaccompanied by men Saturday EARLY BIRD Before noon "All customers 111 N.

Card and receive two free games So what better for the woman who has (and hasdone) everything but a nice reunion album? And what's this--a concept album to boot?! "Maggots: TheRecord," the ninth anniversary album from wonderful Wendy O. Williams and the Plasmatics is possiblythe most bizarre piece of vinyl of all time.' The very concept of a Plasmatics reunion seems strange.Brilliantly managed throughout their career by mastermind Rod Swenson, the Plasmatics became asymbol of contradiction to what was happening in music in the late 70s. The glam and shock rock thinghad long since peaked-Alice was studying philosophy, the Dolls were dead and KISS had gotten too bigfor its own good, doing Colorforms and "Kids Are People, Too" by the time the Plasmatics splashed ontothe scene. Wendy, with her whipped cream, black electrical-taped teats and mohawk, was dangerously unsettling when the Plasmatics were making their loudest noises, and they got a lot of attention for it.But they were never very popular.. There is a built-in popularity ceiling on a band whose male guitarplayer wears a tutu and whose female singer destroys televisions with a sledgehammer. Wendy alwayswas militantly obsessed with world domination through music, but the band never really gathered morethan a cult following, however dedicated. Thus, a reunion album seems odd. Actually, odd is a verydiluted term. "Maggots: The Record" is completely bent. It is only slightly more than half music; the other half is' composed of an audio theater work interspersed throughout the album. The setting is 2013, and a scientific accident has resulted in the formation of mutant maggots that eventually take over the worldby devouring all mankind. The drama profiles several characters whose lives are cut short by untimelyvisits from the maggots. A standout performance is turned in by Suzanne Bedford as Valerie, who isgobbled up by a bedfull of maggots the size of large knack-wursts. Valerie's only dialogue is a telephoneconversation with her boyfriend, television newscaster Bruce Maltin (Tony Marzocco), but she certainly deserves an academy award (or would it be a grammy?) for her dying scene. Bedford actually sounds as if she is being eaten alive by french bread-sized maggots--a truly inspiring performance. Scott Harlanalso is quite good as Joe White. Joe is the head of the White family, which is sequentially devoured by maggots three to four feet long and nearly seven inches in diameter. And James Gerth is excellent asthe Serlingesque narrator, calmly announcing the lives and deaths of the "Maggots" cast. Even with all the excitement generated by the feasting maggots, the music on this album is impossible to ignore.The band is actually a cross between original Plasmatics and Wendy's solo band, W.O.W. The newgroup consists of: Wes Beech (Plasmatics) on rhythm guitar, Chris' "Junior" Romanelli (Plasmatics) onbass, Ray Callahan (W.O.W.) on drums and Michael Ray (W.O.W.) on lead guitar. Swenson also has returned to manage and produce the band, along with Beech, and also did most of the writing of the newmaterial, with Ray. The production on the record sounds like that of Wendy's latest solo effort, last year's "Kommander of Kaos." The sound is muddy and bassy, with the drums pushing woofers to distortionand burying the vocals. All in all, the production is very bad and quite annoying, but seems to fit withthe feeling of doom of the record. Production aside, "Maggots" is a heavy metal rock album in the finesttradition of the Plasmatics. Throughout the band's career it was tagged punk rock because of vocals andhaircuts, but was always a metal band, with a twist all its own. "Maggots" is no different. The musichas a certain sinister tone, reminiscent of 1980's "Coup d'etat." However, the breaks and the timechanges on "Maggots" are absolutely beyond; defying all rules of musical sense, keeping listenersconstantly on their toes and on edge. Songs like "You're a Zombie" and "The Day of the Humans isGone" represent a most bizarre sense of musical structure-very non-conventional arrangement that mostcertainly comes from hours of trying very hard to produce something fundamentally different. A furiousdouble-bass gallop with Wendy screaming over it will suddenly drop out to nothing but a sleazy guitargrind and Wendy kind of muttering underneath: "(Now) you're a zombie, honey, we done consumed yourbrain/ Can you tell the difference, or do you feel the same?/ Now you're a fascist robot, just like you werebefore/ We can press your buttons and have a robot war." And back into the gallop. The dominantmusical voices on the album are Wendy and Ray, who take turns battling the sea of mud that is therhythm element of the album. Wendy O. Williams simply has the toughest voice in rock 'n' roll, gender be damned. Wendy's vocals sound as though they are being run through a paper shredder-coarse, rough,ultimately harsh. To maintain that level of vocal intensity for as long as she has is incredible, a tribute toher stamina as a performer. I mean, this woman is more than 40 years old, and she sounds (not tomention looks) like she's 20. The searing lead guitar of Michael Ray also is a brilliant attribute of"Maggots," and his exposure through the project will surely bring Ray the acclaim he deserves as agreat guitarist. The album's six songs center around the general theme of the universal decadence andthe subsequent demise of the human race. The outlook is extremely negativeâ€”the listener isblanketed by an overwhelming sense of doom that is conveyed very effectively through the music andlyrics. In all, "Maggots: The Record" is 40 minutes of audio revolution. The Plasmatics have succeededin carrying on in their own tradition of defiance of the norm. Despite the project's innate and obviousrepelling nature, it is destined to be commercially recognized, if not prominent, because it is simply toogood to be ignored. I can't wait for the video. ---------- Western Front - 1987 April 24 - ACCENT, page 7 ---------- FRIDAY, APRIL 24,1987 ACCENT 7 Bassist jazzes up Mama Sundays tonight By Tore Slette' staffreporter The time is 1977 and the place is the Monterey Jazzfest. A young bassist stands before a crowd of 7,000 and opens the festival with a riveting, intense. solo. The young man was David Friesen andsince the mid 70s he has played at many large festivals around the world. This evening Bellingham jazzconnoisseurs can experience one of his excellent performances when Mama Sundays brings The DavidFriesen Ensemble to Western. Friesen is joined on stage by percussionist Alan Jones and saxaphonistPhil Dwyer. "Phil Dwyer is an excellent musician, he's just incredible," Friesen said, from his home inPortland, Ore. "He's from Canada and right now.he has coast-to-coast recognition up there. I can't say enough good things about him. It's a pleasure to be on stage with him." DAVID FRIESEN At tonight'sshow Friesen will play music from previous albums plus some new material. The new stuff will appear ona forthcoming album called "Inner Voices," which will be released on May 4th. "Inner Voices" is recordedon Global Pacific Records and distributed by CBS Records. Herb Wong, critic for Jazz Times Magazineand former Western faculty member, said Friesen's music "is founded on integrity and the pursuit ofexcellence." Although Friesen has charmed audiences in all parts of the world, including the USSR, he'snever played the famous Montreux International Jazz Festival, held every summer in Switzerland. ButFriesen said that's about to change. "This summer Paul Horn and I are going to Montreux to play. Paulplays flute on the 'Inner Voices' album with me." The David Friesen Ensemble performs at 8 p.m. in theViking Union Coffee Shop. Admission is free.Childcare is provided and refreshments will be served.Burton delivers good vibes By Carole Wiedmeyer â€” â€” â€¢ â€” â€” â€” _ _ - â€” â€” â€” - staff reporterJazz musician Gary Burton will wrap up his teaching schedule at Berklee College of Music in Bostonbefore starting a northwest tour at Western Tuesday. The Gary Burton Group, presented by theNorthwest Concert Association, will play its blend of jazz and rock at 8 p.m. Tuesday in the PerformingArts Center. Featuring Burton on vibraphone, the group also includes Makoto Ozone at the piano, Tommy Smith on saxophone, Martin Richards on drums andGildas Bode on electric bass guitar. Steve Swallow,Burton's bass player since the '60s, will not be part of the tour. Burton's agent said she was unsure ofSwallow's status with the group. The vibraphone, also known as the vibraharp or vibes, belongs to thesame family of instruments as the xylophone. Burton has been named Best Vibest by Downbeatmagazine every year since 1968. Chuck Israels, Western's director of jazz studies, worked with Burtonin the '60s, cutting a record with him on RCA in 1963. Israels said the group's technical ability is"amazing," and gave special credit to "brilliant" pianist Ozone. Ozone is a former Berklee student, andhas recorded solo as well as with the Burton group. Burton also has recorded with prominent jazzmusicians Chick Corea, Stephane Grapelli, Keith Jarrett, Pat Metheny and Larry Coryell. Tuesday'sconcert is the final performance in a series of three sponsored since fall by the Northwest ConcertAssociation. The local non-profit group works to bring a broad range of performances at affordableprices to Whatcom County, said Ellen Vaughn, publicity coordinator. Previous events were sold-out, shesaid. Tickets are $10 general, $6 for seniors and students, and are available at Box Office Northwest inthe Bellingham Mall. Parking will be reserved near the PAC, Vaughn said.

Back: Makoto Ozone, MartinRichards Front: Tommy Smith, Gary Burton, Gildas Bode By Jeff Kuehn staff reporter The photographiccomposites in "Structured Vision; Collage and Sequential Photography," a new exhibit at theWhatcom Museum of History and Art, are entertaining and skillfull examples of photography as an artform. Photography captures reality, but in this exhibit it is used to manipulate viewers toward thephotographer's perspective. No photographs stand alone in this exhibit. All are arranged into collagesand sequences, which fall into three basic categories: linear series, arrays, and grids. Dozens of artistsare represented in this show. Most have received world-wide recognition for their work in photography.Composite photographic manipulation dates back almost as far as photography itself. In 1843Antoine Claudet attempted to capture London using close-up photographs arranged in proper relation to each other. In 1877 Eadweard Muybridges attempted to gain the same effect with his well-knownseries "San Francisco from California Street." Photographic collages developed from Cubist Movement,and attempt to create the illusion of movement in a still medium. However, this exhibit entails more than an attempt to capture motion in still photographs. Daniel Baboir's hand-colored montages present viewsof cultural conflict. Black-and-white narratives by John Schlesinger are enigmatic and disquieting.Duane Michals and Gregory A. Mac- Gregor offer whimsical narratives such as "The Bogeyman" and"Backyard Safety Demonstration." David McGlynn's "Boat, Cape Cod " and "Brooklyn Bridge" presentgridded panoramas. Some of the most interesting and enjoyable pieces in this exhibit are KarenRiedener's three-dimensional time sequences such as "People Crossing Park Ave.," which presentsthe viewer with a three-dimensional, frontal view of foot traffic in New York. This is one of the mostexciting and entertaining shows to come to Bellingham for quite some time and it would be a shamefor anyone interested in photography, or art, to miss it. "Structured Visions" will be at the WhatcomMuseum of History and Art, 121 Prospect St. in downtown Bellingham, until May 10.

T. A. INSTITUTE OPENS HERE NEXT TUESDAY ;.„ J Poll Reveals Majority WWC Students Against Teacher Strike At the annual convention of the National Education Association held in .Cincinnati recently, a resolution against strikes was adopted. The N.E.A. believes that the strike is "an unsatisfactory method of solving professional problems;" however, it deplores the conditions which have caused teachers to strike. Furthermore, the N.E.A. urges teachers, and others within the profession, to assume more of the responsibility for the removal of those conditions. •Your WWCoilegian in a poll conducted'this week finds a majority of the students at WWC supporting this stand of the N.E.A. . A s a representative sampling of the student body, 115 students were polled in the survey which asked: "SHOULD TEACHERS BE ALLOWED TO USE THE STRIKE AS AN INSTRUMENT FOR SETTLING WAGE AGREEMENTS" • - Yes ...J .....52 • -No'....-...„ 58 No Opinion 5 Nearly all of those participating in the poll -would have qualified, their answers. .Replies such as, "I think they, should be allowed to strike,' but, I don't think they should strike." "They should have the same-rights as any other American.". "It depends on the conditions in the school district," were voiced over und over. One student in voting "NO" stated, "Teachers should not be allowed to strike. They have a moral responsibility to the youngsters of our country." Another student, with nearly twenty years of teaching experience, said, "They most certainly should be allowed to strike. The work of the Bremerton group last year helped all of us." The general consensus of opinion was that teachers should be allowed to strike, but they shouM use. other means of settling their problems. Terpsichorean Fascinates Large, Appreciative Student Audience Dancing with an ease and grace acquired only through long hours of practice, Miss Mary Tiffany entertained an appreciative group of students and visitors in the auditorium this morning. Acting as her own choreographer, and showing an innate sense of humor as well as dramatic ability in all of her modern dances, Miss Tiffany, presented an hour of the most delightful entertainment witnessed here this summer. Miss Tiffany has had training at the Pasadena Playhouse in California, and the Neighborhood Playhouse in New York. In addition, she -jf Dateline . . . Saturday, July 2ft—Viqueen lodge picnic.

Noted Violinist To Appear Next Week Mr. Harry Adaskin, violinist, is to present a program of music to the students of WWCE this coming Tuesday in^assembly at 10 a. m. A Canadian violinist from Vancouver, he has played before large audiences in both Canada and the United States. Prances Marr is the piano accompanist to Mr. Adaskin. The New York Times says: "Mr. Adaskin is unquestionably a fine violinist with ample technical skill." His program should be one of interest to all WWC students. Prexy Travels President W. W. Haggard and Dr. Merle P. Kuder, registrar, drove to Olympia Thursday morning to attend the two-day annual meeting of the State Board of Education and the State Board of Vocational Education. Evening Songfest Climaxes First Term Recreation Approximately 75 g o u r m a n ds feasted on weiners and potato salad Wednesday evening as their end-of- the-first-term celebration. The weiner roast was held in the picturesque setting atop Sunset heights with its view of the bay and islands. The picnic, under sponsorship of the recreation department was the last event planned for the first term. As a fitting conclusion to the outing Dr. Keith A. Murray, of the Social Science department, lead the picnickers in group singing. Van Aver Back With Degree Resuming his position with the English department after a year's leave of absence, Dr. Albert Van Aver contends that graduate study today presents more pressing problems than mere work and study, the least of which isn't housing. Dr. Van Aver and his family found it next to impossible to obtain living quarters in Cincinnati, and the few places which were available were almost-"untenantable*. Needless "to say, the Van Aver's are glad to be back in Bellingham and their home. Dr. Van Aver received the doctor of philosophy degree at the University of Cincinnati in June. Local Artist Sings Entertaining the s t u d e n t s of WWCE with an extensive repetoire of songs was Miss. Hortense Harrington, dramatic soprano and a native of Bellingham. Her program included several folk songs of different countries sung in their native language and dramatically presented to ihe audience. Other numbers were classical selections from Brahms, Rachmaninoff, an operatic number from Wagner's "Tannhauser" and several other pieces. She was accompanied by Miss Edith Strange at the piano. Hannegan Pass, Sea Cruise Beckon Outdoor Enthusiasts The second .part of the summer recreation program opens with two activities designed to attract not only the rugged, but also those who like to take life with less exertion. Tomorrow's event is another boat trip, this time to Sinclair Island, where the college maintains Viqueen Lodge, a beautiful cabin in its, natural setting, for the enjoyment of college students. Facilities for picnicking, swimming, sunbathing, and fishing are excellent. There are also several short, well marked hiking trails. Sinclair trippers will board the V. M. Osage at Quackenbush dock Saturday morning. Departure time is 7:00 a. m. The Osage will leave the party at about 9:30 and return again at 4:00 p. m. for the voyage home. The college will, furnish coffee, but picnickers must take their own lunches. HANNEGAN PASS HIKE An overnight hike to Hannegan Pass is the other, and longer, feature of this week-end. Hikers will leave the PE building at 7:45 Saturday morning for the drive up to the trail where the hike will begin. The hike to the camping grounds is between four and five miles, so hikers are advised to take along a light lunch to eat on the trail. Arrangements have been made to pack all food and equipment to the camp site, but each person should be responsible for personal articles, clothing, and sun glasses. Those who are going are advised to check the Yodeler for details. Saturday night, camp will be made near Hannegan Pass, a location of unsurpassed beauty. The rugged peaks and ranges provide a perfect alpine background for the camp site.. Among the attractions is the mountain heather, which thrives in this area. Early Sunday morning, a part of the group will climb Ruth Mountain, a short, but brisk climb, and one with a beautiful view to reward the climber. All hikers will return Sunday evening. Married Studes Picnic Sunday The Students' Wives club will sponsor a picnic for married students of WWC and their families at Whatcom Falls Park Sunday afternoon, July 27. Picnickers are advised to pack a Sunday dinner. Coffee will be provided. Shuffleboard," tennis and croquet equipment will be provided for adults, and playground facilities will be available to the children. A lifeguard will be on duty at the swimming pool. Those without transportation may catch the Silver Beach bus, which runs directly by the park, at the corner of Garden and Holly. Site Of Forthcoming P.-T. A Institute Final preparations were being made this week for the Washington Congress of Parents and Teachers Institute which opens a three day meet here next Tuesday. Mrs. Gus Keehn, state elementary service chairman, will act as general chairman of the institute. She will be assisted by Mrs. J. W. Bingham, representative, National Congress of Parents and Teachers; Mrs. George Crampton, president, Washington Congress of Parents and Teachers; Mrs. W. B. Nattrass, president, Bellingham Council P.T.A., and others. Afl WWC students are invited to attend as many - of the sessions as possible. Most of the sessions will be held in the auditorium of the Campus school. ---------- WWCollegian - 1947 July 25 - Page 2 ---------- Western Washington College of Education, Bellingham, Washington Friday, July 25, 1947 Established 1899 Member Associated Gofletfate Press Published every Friday, except the month of September by the Associated Students, Wastern Washington College of Education, Bellingham, Wash.

Last week's WWCollegian carried a press release comparing the average school teacher's salary in the state of Washington with those of teachers in other states. It pointed out the great financial gains made in the past year by Washington school teachers, and concluded by stating that the new increases represent a 92% gain over the 1942 average. . We in the field of education are PROUD of those gains, and rightly so, for they represent no little effort on the part of all of us to better conditions in our profession. However, before anyone starts pointing out the new "happy" state of Washington's school teachers, they must realize that the comparison was made WITHIN THE TEACHING PROFESSION. To obtain a clearer, truer picture of the situation, the release would have done well to have include a few figures such as these: Bricklayers *$2.10W per hour Carpenters I.SWi " " Electricians 2J0OVi " " Painters... !J0% " " Plasterers 2.Wz " " Plumbers 2.20 " " * As of February 15, 1947, at Seattle, Washington. Figures from Table 8, page 620, MONTHLY LABOR REVIEW, April, 1947. RUBBER DOLLARS? If the married veterans in attendance at WWC have been following the progress of the "subsistence bill" now before the Senate with more than the usual amount of interest, they have a good reason to do so A $15.00 a month increase now would be like money from home. ft wouldn't be so bad if prices were at the 1941 level, but to try and stretch $90 over 31 days is next to impossible now-a-days. By comparing the average retail prices of foods in 56 large cities onFebruary 15, 1947, with the prices prevailing on January 15, 1941, vou can readily see why your $90 disappears with such rapidity.

MOBLO With the arrest of Billie Holiday recently comes the bitter barb in the side of all professional musicians— the Dope Charge. Time and time again we hear the old saying that a good musician can't survive without his side kick, Mother Marijuana. The Big Names in the music racket have a large following of junior size fans, and- realizing that they are idealized by these kids most band leaders take special precaution to stay away from the stuff. Our position as educators should be that of debunking any ideas the kids may have that to play well a musician must be drunk or on a Tea-Kick. When performers like Billie, or Gene Krupa of a few years back, lower themselves to take dope, it is high time they were marked off the eligible list for public consumption. Such fine musicians as Ellington, Miller, the Dorsey boys, etc., have presented a terrific type of jazz, without any help from the "hemp." This all adds up that the dope who takes dope is just a fair musician with big-time ideas and and small-time talent. More and more name musicians and band leaders have swapped the placid podium for the platter parade. Kate Smith, Paul Whiteman and T. Dorsey are the latest hipsters who have left the stage for steady jobs as Disk-Jockies. What with this current trend we might expect to hear the voice of A. Toscanini on the networks jovially cooing, "and now Tod and Verklarung going to the Black Dahlia from Red—etc., etc." Record of the Week: An amusing number by Jerry Colona "Cow Pasture Polka (lift your feet, lift your feet." Composer Roy Harris has published iiis newest musical monstrosity— Concerto for Accordian and Orchestra, which was broadcast last month. If this number doesn't put the Squeeze Box back in the hay loft it won't be the fault of Herr Roy. "Hand me my Jaw Harp ma, I crave to be an artist." It was announced that someone dug up the rest of a Rachmaninoff First Symphony in the rubble of Moscow the other day. It seems that after the first performance of said work Rachmaninoff was so dismayed DELIGHT HER WITH A DIAMOND WEISFIELD GOLDBERG FOR THAT SUN-PROOF SKIN Use Star-lite Cream Lotion Let's You Tan — Helps Prevent Painful Blistering and Peeling • POLOROID AND COOLRAY Sun Glasses Cuts Glare — Protects Your Eyes • COOLING Foot Powders For Burning, Aching Feet and Athlete's Foot • STAR Drug Co. State and Holly Phone 224 Mosquitoes, Nettles, Sunburns Plague Sucia Trippers By NITA CLOTHIER Yeah—such a time! Did you read about Sucia on the back page? It says we relaxed! And returned with suntans! Pardon me while I scratch. I've been so nettled by nettles, and straffed by mosquito buzz bombers that I can't sit still. And that peel-that he went home and tore up the score. Many times afterward he tried to reconstruct it but always with failure. If complete parts have been found we will soon hear a posthumous Rachmaninoff symphony. The lowly trombone, about which pointed remarks have been made since its birth, may soon become a concert instrument. Anyway so the Russians think. Concerto Duets for Two Trombones has been published by a teacher in the Moscow Conservatory. Could this have any bearing up on the Russian lack of cooperation? Tuesday's assembly was one of the best musical assemblies I have ever attended. Miss Harrington succeeded in presenting a program that was thoroughly enjoyable. The German numbers were especially well done. Both, Come Sweet Death, in a mellow voice full of great feeling and beautiful phrasing, and the aria from Tannhauser were sung in a way that would make the best music critics sit up and take notice. I Hate Music, a very modern number by the composer, conductor, pianist Leonard Bernstien, was an amusing little piece consisting of five songs written in the medium of a small child. The Wandering tonal patters peculiar to the non-melodious modern music require a good amount of skill in voice control and tonal precision. It was truly excellent interpretation of a difficult piece. Miss Harrington's excellent choice of program material proves that she is not only a true artist but a philanthropist as well. ing sunburn on my back doesnt ease matters. But let's go back: "Come on," my roommate Ellie urged me. "Well spend a wonderfully relaxing weekend on the beautiful misty isle of Sucia—nothin' but lotus eating, lounging, a n d swimming in the beautiful sea that ebbs and flows there. Then—then," she says, "We can really start studying for the finals." "Ank, ank! I'm laughing yet. We each had strained a muscle by the time we'd hitch-hiked our way to Citizens' dock. (Ellie had sold Ruthe Wilder with the same sales talk.) What with knapsacks, paper sacks, sleeping sacks, and week-end sacks (bags to you, but sacks works in better), you'd have strained a muscle too. But gee-whiz, a girl really has to have all her lipsticks, sun tan oils, changes of clothes, and so forth when she goes on a two-day camping trip. Anybody knows that. And students that we are, we had to take a collection of books—any student knows that. Anticipating four hours on the high seas with no food, of course we had to take a lunch. So Ellie loaded down-with lunch, Ruthe with sacks, and me with the three sleeping bags, we hit the road at 1000 (sea-going for the time) Saturday morning. Arriving at last at Sucia and after chow, served by Mr. Kfear-sey and Mr. MacDonald, Happy Fisher consented to guide a group on a little walk across the island. You might call ft a "little" walk if you don't care what you say. Amid bee and nettle stings, sunburn and scratches, there's nothing like a "little" walk with Hap Fisher. Around campfire that evening, Mr. Mac had to lead us in "Goodnight Ladies" four times befdrt we took thehint and[toddled :;offlH»*the sacks. "Sweet dreams," they said. Sweet dreams, yeah, if you could get in any dream time at all. B-z-z-t.

The Yak (Bos grunniens) inhabits the Tibetan plateau. Being a member of the ox family, it is relatively simple to tell him apart from the other inhabitants. Yaks afford the only means of transportation along the Indus River between Ladak and India. Economists have been wondering for some time how they afford it. Some say it could happen only under a single-tax program, others give the credit to Capitalism. The .French won't believe it and the Russians have vetoed the whole thing. The Yak, of course, goes right on transporting and doesn't give it another thought. Most people know more about Yaks than they will admit. The Yak crops up quite often in our daily conversation. For example, as a means of cynical laughter people often chant, "yak, yak." In Minnesota the Yak is a mythical character from local folklore. One of the first poems children from that part of the country learn is: Yak be nimble, Yak be quick, Yak jump over the candlestick. The Yak is entirely unaware of his influence. Though the Yak looks somewhat like a well fed dust mop, he doesnt •like to be pushed around. The amount of effort it would take to push one around wouldn't be worth it, anyway. And besides, who wants to be a professional Yak pusher? A Yak is black. Which, besides being assonant, makes it easier for him to get around at night without being spotted. Some of them, however, are spotted—these are the black and white Yaks. Being spotted, they are quickly caught and domesticated. Once domesticated they start affording transportation and the economists become more confused. Yak's are like that. Now we're back where we started from. To find the area of this vicious circle, substitute Yak for Pi and proceed accordingly. Engaged Mr. and Mrs. G. H. Peaster, to Mr. Robert O.

Most G.I.'s that are attending schools of higher learning have forgotten a good share of the things that are taken for granted by the instructors. Their reason for forgetting can be well explained. They have been out of school anywhere from one to ten or more years. In that time such things as English, math, and so on have been forgotten, except the simplest forms in everyday use. I don't believe we should be expected to know as much as a person who has had no or little delay in education. In some instances it may appear as though we G.I. students at times do not know the usual rules and methods. It is in most cases not a lack of learning on our part, but a temporary forgetting which a little review could bring back to us. That is where my gripe comes in. . Some, of the. instructors don't wait to see who needs review. They take up the subject from where it was dropped in high school. It just isn't fair to the G.L who hasn't been to school for a good many years. A midnight-oil burning G.I.

In threesimilar speeches (one to the faculty,- one to the board of trustees and one to the students) Flora saidthe state is trying to balance its budget for the 69-71 biennium. Western's actual number of full-fee-paying students now stands at 9,244. That number is 326 students under the budgeted enrollment which means Western will have to return possibly hundreds of thousands of dollars to the state Flora said. Headded that under normal economic conditions in the past, returning money was never required whenWestern didn't fill student enrollment projections. , The real crisis will be operating in the 71-73 bienniumFlora said. According to Flora the state is faced with a depression, not a recession. As a result Western is faced with cutbacks of possibly millions of dollars. For that reason Flora has set up two commissions which he said will be the "most hated groups on campus if they do a good job." The two commissions,headed by Dr. Frederick Sargent, college provost, have the assigned task of making suggestions forcutting costs of operating this institution. The first commission will focus on instructional costs whichamount to about 65 per cent of the total costs. Flora said he didn't think faculty manpower reductionswill be necessary but that they could occur. The second commission is charged with makingsuggestions for reducing o p e r a t i o n costs, including administration costs and associated studentsbudget. Analogizing on the enormous size of the needed cost cutbacks, Flora said, "We're not justdraining off fat, we're talking about cutting some meat, we just hope we don't cut bone." When asked ifthere will be any students on these commissions Flora said, "I've delayed actually considering that untilthere is a student government I can turn to." Flora contends that these commissions could be thestimulus needed to improve Western's educational system. Joe Nusbaum, college business manager,accompanied and aided Flora in his "speech tour." Nusbaum explained with charts that college costskeep going up faster than college income. He also said the political scene doesn't give Boeing'simmediate future too much to look forward to. The word "Boeing" seemed to keep popping into the threespeeches, which lead to the question "Do you think it's a good idea for the college and the state todepend on one industry, namely Boeing?" Flora replied quickly, "No sir, I don't." Young Demos By JIMAUSTIN The students of Washington have the opportunity to work for social change within a recognizedpolitical organization, according to Young Democrats (YD) President Charlene Miller. The local chapterwill meet at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow to plan campaign activities for the coming election, in VU .360 "TheYoung Democrats are the third most influential political organization in the state," Miss Miller said. Sheadded that the student organization's influence is surpassed only by that of the State Democratic andRepublican parties. Western's YD's will hit the election trail Saturday with a door-to-door . campaign forthe election of Dan Van Dyk to the State Legislature. Van Dyk will face incumbent GOP Legislator Fred Veroske in the Nov. 3 general election. Another major goal of the group is the passage of House JointResolution 6 (Vote 19). "Just because the President signed Congressional legislation extending the voteto 18 year olds doesn't mean the Supreme Court will uphold the constitutionality of the bill," Miss Millersaid. She also is Whatcom County coordinator for Vote 19. The State Democratic Party adopted ayouth-oriented platform in Spokane last( summer, proposing a m n e s t y for anti-war demonstrators and those who refuse induction and endorsing the Hat field-McGovern Amendment. The senate amendmentto the 1970 military appropriations bill, co-sponsored by Sen. Mark Hatfield (R-Ore.) and Sen. GeorgeMcGovern (D-S.D.), called for the complete withdrawal of U.S. troops from Indochina by June 1971. Theamendment was voted down by the Senate during the summer. Kids Klean up County The WhatcomCounty landscape looks a little greener today, following a county-wide children's clean-up contest thatnetted a staggering 124,000 bottles and cans. Sponsored by supporters of Initiative 256 (seeking to banall non-returnable bottles and cans), the contest made three enterprising children $50 richer. Prizeswere awarded for the most containers collected by the child in each of three age groups-6-9, 10-12 and13-15. A group prize of $50 was given to the third grade class at Rolder Grade School. The cans andbottles were collected at four drop-off points in the Whatcom County area from noon to 3 p.m. Saturdayafternoon. Northwestern Glass in Seattle is buying the glass collected for $20 a ton, but the metalcontainers will have to be taken to the dump. "This is against our wishes," said Dave Miller, statechairman of Initiative 256. He explained that there is no local recycling company who will buy the metal. This reporter participated in the sorting and counting of containers at the Toad Hall location. Thefollowing is a bottle-by-bottle account of the day's activities: By JIM DIEDRICK 11:30 a.m.-Cans andbottles are streaming in ahead of schedule. I am advised to begin the endless job of counting and sorting into three main groupsâ€”non-returnable bottles, returnable bottles, and cans. The bottles are alsodivided according to colorâ€”brown, green and clear. 12:30 p. m.â€”Reinforcements from Fairhaven arrive to help with sorting. More contestants arrive with the number of bottles and cans pre-tallied on an entryblank supplied by the initiative sponsors. We are informed that the Lucky Lager distributors will pay 25cents a case for their bottles. Moans ripple through the crowd, contemplating the task of re-sorting. 1p.m.â€”A friendly lady in a blue pickup pulls up with 2,000 brightly-colored cans. She is asked to drive to the Union Printing Shop parking lot in downtown Bellingham and deposit them in a cage there. I ridealong, noticing on the way a billboard against Initiative 256. The argument is that its passage wouldcause unemployment and raise the costs of living. 1:15 p.m.â€”We arrive at the parking lot and dumpthe cans. On the cage, erected to publicize the litter problem, hangs a sign reading: "Bellinghamresidents throw away 20,000 cans and bottles a day." 1:30 p.m.-Back at Toad Hall, I notice a CBSnews crew setting up. One of the crewmen is sipping a can of beer. 2 p.m.â€”Pictures are taken, andthe sorting continues. Grey-haired men watch the confusion from Toad Hall, as the count reaches20,000. 2:30 p.m.-A YMCA bus rolls in, its yellow innards stuffed with bottles arid cans. 3 p.m.â€”Asomewhat disgusted woman, surveying the process, says: "It's the teenagers that throw these bottleson the road and the little kids get stuck with the dirty work." A curious man asks me what the hell isgoing on. I try to explain. He looks at the mountains of affluence and asks: "What will you do with them, dump them in the bay?" 3:30 p.m.-I help a mother count her child's collection, and ask the boy if hethinks he'll win a prize. "If we don't win at least we'll be doing something helpful," he says. I couldn'targue with that. Need Financial Aid? Financial aid doesn't grow on trees, neither is it set on aninaccessible pinnacle. Many avenues are open to students in need of financial assistance at Western. In all cases it is of paramount inportance for the student to investigate the various programs early and beprompt in submitting his application. Federal aid to education and federally-insured student loans arethe two major forms of financial assistance available to students, according to James Grant, assistantdirector of the financial aid office. Three programs come under federal aid to education: National DefenseStudent Loans, Educational Opportunity Grants, and College Work-Study. A needy student will beconsidered for a National Defense Student Loan if he is enrolled full-time, 12 credit hours for anundergraduate, seven for graduates. Determination of need is largely dependent on the parent'sconfidential financial statement. II his financial need is great enough and there are funds available, thestudent will get, on the average, a $500 loan. Interest rate for the National Defense Loan is set at a low 3 per cent per year. Repayment as well as interest rates do not begin until nine months after a studentends his studies. Repayment may be deferred up to three years if the student is in the armed services,Peace Corps, VISTA or involved in graduate studies. Educational Opportunity Grants are based onexceptional need as demonstrated by the parent's confidential statement. These grants are "gift aid" with no repayment required. Individual grants may range from $200 to $800 and are matched with otherfinancial aid such as loans, scholarships or guaranteed employment. Grant said many students havemisconceptions about the Work-Study program. "First of all, work-study students are pre-selected," hepointed out. This means that students can't, By RON GRAHAM just walk into the financial aid office inthe middle of Fall quarter and ask to get on the work-study program. Applications must be submitted bythe Winter quarter preceding the next school year in order to be considered for work-study. To remainon work-study a student must be enrolled full-time and maintain a 2.0 grade point average. Many typesof jobs come under the work-study program. The student union, the library, the computer center, themaintenance department and other campus agencies employ students under the work-study program.Jobs on campus can net a student between $300 and $600 a year while off campus positions generallyyield more. Any full-time student qualifies for a federally insured student loan which carries almost all the benefits of the National Defense, Student Loan. The interest rate is higher (7 per cent), and the banksare somewhat restrictive in handling the loan. . 0 . . . . . . ^ ^ , . v â€¢ % . - . . Â» .

No funds, are available for the emergencyloan. The Methodist loan is available only to full-time students who are members of the United Methodist Church. Western is scholarship-poor, according to Grant. Academic scholarships are available as one-year awards given to freshmen, transfer students or returning students in recognition of outstandingscholastic achievement. Other scholarships at Western are awarded on the basis of special abilities.These are granted on recommendation of the art, athletic, music, speech and drama departments.There are many other scholarships which are awarded by private institutions and businesses. Information on these and other student aid. sources can be obtained from the finanical aid office, Old Main 103. .Freshmen are less likely to get a loan their first quarter since the bank has no way of being sure thestudent will be in school. The nine-month repayment deferment and possible deferments due toemployment in the armed services, Peace Corps, VISTA or graduate study are the same as long as thestudent's family adjusted gross income is less than $15,000 a year. Outside of federal aid there areseveral other types of loans including Western's institutional student loan, the emergency loan and theUnited Methodist Student Loan Fund. Students in temporary need of funds to continue their educationcan apply for the institutional student loan. Completion of at least one quarter at Western along with full-time enrollment and good a c a d e m i c standing are pre-requisites. Institutional loans can amount to a maximum of $200 per quarter. A student may not get more than two in an academic year of two without repayment.

Over the summer these students formulated the ideaof an accredited course in community relations. They presented their plans to President Flora, got hisapproval and set to work creating Political Science 397b, a seminar in student, community andcontroversial issues. B e c a u s e of insufficient enrollment the class had to be cancelled. In order tokeep their idea alive, the students began the weekly rap sessions. This week members of the politicalscience department will address the session concerning legislative and political processes. As the group expands later in the quarter, it hopes to have members of the psychology department speak onstudents' frustrations from a psychological viewpoint. The student-initiated seminars are trying to reachthe community to dispel beliefs townspeople may h a v e about students and Please Bleed Western'ssecond annual blood-bank drive will be held Thursday from 10:30 to 12:30 p.m. in VU. 10. The purposeof the blood drive, as announced by Allison Andres, coordinator, is to bolster college-communityrelations. The blood drive is campus-wide, open to all faculty and students.

Bafnhart has helped thestudent group set up the seminars and organize panels. Bafnhart said that there's a tremendousimpatience among students, and if the town shows interest in their projects, the students' impatiencemay lessen. The general citizenry is aware of the problems students are talking about. There ispresently an awakening by state legislators and local citizens to the problems and the feelings of theyouths of today. The committee will hold a panel discussion on the phenomena of student activism onWednesday, Oct. 28 at 7:30 p.m. in the American Legion Hall. Dr. Ronald DeLorme, associate professor of history, will moderate the student-community panel. Senator Frank Atwood will be a panelist. Thecommittee hopes to have as other panelists Dean of Students C. W. McDonald, a student activist, astudent radical, a community leader, a "blue collar" worker and an American Legion member.

Fly Navy IN Aviation Information Team Will Be Aboard EDENS HALLTuesday Oct. 22 # 9 a.m. until 3 By DEBBIE HUDSON "Well, fishing is our way of life and it is elean-tfoe other (industry) is dirty, If we do this and it fails, we can always go back, if we put ' industry in,, wecan't go back, so dra-w $ a pteffii.*' Such were the words of an old Lummi Indian as told by Dr.Wallace Heath at the Sea People's Mental Health Needs Help Passage of the Mental Health Clinicreferendum on Nov. 3 requires public education on the subject. Bob Marx, a member of Westernspsychology department and the campus counseling center, put out an urgent call for help last week inhopes of recruiting concerned students. Marx said that a meeting has been scheduled for today inLecture Hall Two from 4 to 6 p.m. The meeting will provide interested students with information about the present mental health clinic facilities and what might be accomplished by passage of the levy. "Theproject should serve as a great educational experience to any student who is interested in helping,"Marx said. Student who would like to help the clinic would be stationed at various points throughout thecounty for one day and pass out literature and answer questions. "Many people when they hear thewords 'mental health' think of insanity, but it covers much more. The whole field is changing rapidly," hesaid. Any student interested in more information can contact Marx in the counseling center. Geologists Strike Gold Hey science buffs, define this one: "Paleomagnetism and Magnetic Properties of Cordilieran Granitic Rocks." Give up? Well, the geology department recently received a National ScienceFoundation research grant of $16,100 for this mystery title. The research, under direction of Dr. Myrl E.Beck, Jr., will study fossils in granite to determine what ancient magnetic fields were like. In hisresearch, Beck will take cores of granite and bring them to his lab. With the use of sensitive equipment,he can tell what magnetic fields were like when the rocks first cooled. Through this type of research,Beck can even tell how much the magnetism of the North Pole has changed. The research will last atleast two years. Beck will restrict his study to the Pacific Northwest. food production seminar lastThursday. So in 1968 Heath, with a little help from his friends in government agencies, drew up a planfor the Lummi AquaGulture Project. The plan proposed that more than 2,500 acres of LmnfttiAquaculture Project. The plan proposed that more than 2,500 acres of Lummi tidelands could be dikedand then shellfish and trout grown in huge quantities in the ponds for commercial markets, with eachacre capable of yielding $4000 in oysters and fish per year. As of now gt; s m a l l er research-pondshave been built and construction on the' dikes of a 7 5 0 - a c r e pond is almost completed. Closelyinterwoven with H e a t h ' s facts about the aquaculture program was his assessment of the LummiIndians. "Tremendous teamwork has been a way of life for the Lummis for a long time. They built thistwice as fast as any professional firm could," he said. According to Heath, it was also the Lummis' longfamiliartiy with the sea and fishing that enabled them to build the dikes and other parts of the project sofast, so well and with less expense, while ignoring contrary predictions and advice from someconstruction engineers. "Engineers predicted 50 feet a day of dike construction and the Lummis weredoing over 100.feet a day," he said. "Heath related aquaculture programs to world problems. Heemphatically stated that aquafarms can not solve the population problem, but given a stable population,the programs can feed a lot of people that are in need of protein. Heath recognized that pollution is aproblem to aquaculture programs. "But let's play the game," he said. "If you can grow several millionpounds of food somewhere, then you are going to be able to turn off somebody's pollution." NewProgram Western recently began a graduate program in student personnel administration in highereducation. The program is geared to accomodate only 12 graduate students at a time, the entire course taking a consecutive four quarters. The goal is to prepare people to take beginning positions in studentpersonnel administration following graduation, according to Dr. Merle Kuder, professor of psychology ineducation and coordinator of the program. S t u d e n t p e r s o n n el administration includes everything from dean of students, director of student activities, to financial aids director, resident hall director andplacement office personnel. The program operates from two The practical side includes an internship instudent personnel with seminar sessions, intensive involvement with other student personneldepartments and participation in staff meetings. * " * " " ..â€”.... rntmiiiiiiwniiiiiMiiâ€”| 1321 CIIKWU 733-MII â€¢MHMIIIUIUIinuHmUHIIIIHmUHHIIMHIHMHtUtlMIMNR The theory half of the program involvesgetting a master of education degree.

Questions cheerfully accepted inVU 220. Gail Denton Special Elections Board Chairman Apathy and Hypocrisy By GLEN JONES Many students gripe about the education they receive at Western. They say that classes aren't relevant,teachers are a drag and students have no voice in the college system. Yet in the midst of all the bitching, it's ironic that a clear opportunity for student voice was almost completely ignored by students. Onceagain, attempts to put together a Student Advisory Committee in the English department have failed. Last Spring quarter thirteen people voted for student positions on the committee. This quarter twenty-six ofthe 600-plus English and journalism majors even bothered to vote. By doubling the vote at this rate, it willbe February of '72 before anything is done. The 18 positions for nomination on the advisory committeewere well filled by majors before the election last Friday. All information about the ballot was publicizedyet, the election was a disaster. Possibly the reasons for failure are that few students actually know what the functions and powers of the committee are. The committee can (could) influence departmentaldecisions in matters of undergraduate curriculum, and far range planning. These are two wide areas ofmany current student dissatisfaction. More specifically, although students do not have direct power to fire a faculty member, they can carry sufficient weight in keeping a teacher that is being dismissed. Anadvisory committee gives advice. Advice means having a say in what goes on around this campus.Students want a voice; they can have it. Apathy and hypocrisy are the key words in the whole matter. Itseems that students are running around saying one thing, and meaning another. They want a voice, butthey won't do anything about it.

So, in the face of another Great Depression, wecourageously offer these little dinky dumb ideas to help the old school squander a few fast bucks (Takenotes, as you may be tested on this material later): â€”Let's start by auctioning off the notorius Noguchi"sky-viewing" sculpture in Red Square. The campus has just about exhausted its supply of sky-viewersanyway, and if the parking dilemma worsens we'll need that space to berth another Volkswagen bus.â€”We had planned on recommending that the college might jack up its prices in the co-op bookstore, but someone beat us to that idea already. Dang. â€”We haven't had a tuition increase in gt;,at least severalmonths. It makes us wonder if the state has forgotten that its colleges and universities are overrun withfilthy rich collegians and cash-flinging ex-G.I.s with fat government checks.

Watching Douglas Fairbanks triumph over the forces of evil in The Iron Mask Friday, I couldn't help but superimpose my 20th centurycollege-student attitudes on the swashbuckling classic. Fairbanks, as the musketeer D'Artagnan,epitomized the John Wayne love-it-or-leave-it super-patriot of the sword who would spill his blood fromhere to eternity for a plot of ground. While 1929 audiences surely cheered Fairbanks on in his heroicdiversions, I could only snicker. It was like a high-camp Batman TV show. It's all here of course.Damsels in distress, evil villains, death-defying acrobatics. Even the rightful king of France, Louis IX, iskidnapped and trapped within an iron mask. Whatever crisis arose, the three musketeers met thechallenge with ease. A simple chant of "All for one, and one for all" sent the opposition fleeing in terror.There was no in-between in those days (the 1600's), when the tide of chivalry was at its zenith. A manwas either good or bad, never a mixture of both. Finally, the hand of fate intervened and D'Artagnan wentoff to the great swordfight in the sky. As he breathed his last, the narrator intoned: "You died as youlived-in love of. your country." . . . .Qh.w.ejl, Bac.M.o.EJhQt.QQuld.. â€¢ English Apathy If you are anEnglish or journalism major, you no doubt heard frequent announcements of elections for the StudentAdvisory Committee of this department. You may also be vaguely interested in the results of lastFriday's ballot for those students running. ? Twenty-six out of some 600 English and journalism majorsvoted. Dr. Robert McDonnell, chairman of the English department, says frankly he doesn't know what todo with the ballot yet. Students could have, but haven't successfully formed a Student AdvisoryCommittee to the department for the past two years since McDonnell first suggested its formation. Thecommittee could carry weight with the undergraduate curriculum and far range planning committees ofthe English department. McDonnell first put it to students to form the committee among themselves.Nothing happened. Last Spring quarter an open meeting was set up and well publicized for voting oncommittee members. Thirteen people voted. This quarter an open ballot was held. Eighteen places fornomination to the committee were filled. Information about election procedures was announcedrepeatedly. McDonnell suggested that perhaps a Student Apathy Committee should be formed.

Kingsley stressed the need for the new centerby citing an experience he had with one patient. The patient, an extremely nervous veteran, "freaked out" as a train passed outside the clinic.

That's - where the change will occur," U.S. Senatorial candidate WilliamMassey told ,an estimated 50 students at Western Friday. Massey, a" candidate on the SocialistWorkers Party (SWP) ticket, endorsed the Oct. 31 nation-wide demonstrations. "Oct. 31 is a muchmore important date than Nov. 3 is," he said. Massey lashed out at what he called the "phrase-mongering" of the Democratic and Republican Parties. "The peace candidates of both parties supportthe popular war (Israel) and oppose the unpopular war (Vietnam)." Republicans and Democrats are liketwo brands of chewing gum, he told the Western Front in an interview following-the speech. "There is nodifference in the last analysis." The SWP as a political party is about 40 years old "though the m e m be r s are considerably younger," Massey said. Massey outlined six points of the SWP platform: 1.Immediate troop withdrawal from Indochina and the rest of the world. "Let the people vote on immediatewithdrawal and tax war profits 100 per cent," the party platform states. 2. Minority control of theircommunities. "End the repression against third world militants, especially the Black Panther Party." 3.Support Women's Liberation. "In order for women to play the role they can and should play in society,abortions must be free and available on demand.* He called for the passage of Referendum 20 as a steptoward free abortion. .4. Protection for the workers. "End unemployment by providing jobs for all through shorter work weeks with no reduction in pay. We support unemployment compensation at full unionscales as long as jobs are unavailable." 5. Change the tax structure. "Abolish all income taxes onincomes under $10,000 while taxing all income over $25,000 100 per cent." 6. End pollution. "So longas it is profitable to pollute, the businesses will pollute. To solve America's problems we have toeliminate the profit system." Massey said he believed the recent rash of bombings was a " v e r y poorcaricature of government action." "I think bombings are wrong and stupid," he said. Valley BackRadiating the love, hope and inner peace of which he sings gives Jim Valley's music a joyous appealwhich seems to come from his soul through his voice and guitar. Valley, nicknamed "Happy Harpo"when he performed for Paul Revere and the Raiders, will sing at 7 p.m. Thursday, in the VU coffee den.He drew nearly 400 people last Spring quarter, capping Campus Crusade for Christ's weekly College Life program. A self-taught musician, Valley began his performing career as drummer, with Don and theGoodtimes. He became lead guitar with the Raiders when the draft grabbed up Phil Volk (better knownas "Fang"). The switch in style from rock to folk came after Harpo left fame, fortune and the Raiders twoyears ago to work for the Union Pacific Railroad and sing for churches and youth groups on theweekends. Lack of purpose in life was his reason for leaving the money and glamour of show business.In his words, "One day, I met a man named Jesus Christ who changed my life's direction." New Building Preliminary planning is under way for construction of a new social sciences building which will hold thegeography, political science, and sociology/anthropology departments. Dr. Howard Critchfield, chairmanof the building program committee for this project, said the building will be located southwest of theheating plant and next to the Northwest Environmental Science Center which is another future project.

What are their goals?According to League of Veterans Interim President Don DeMarco, the group plans to lobby in Olympiafor a state bonus for Vietnam War veterans and one tuition-free year of college. Washington is one of the few states which does not have a state bonus for veterans. The bonus usually takes the form of a setamount of money given the vet upon his release from active military service. The state legislature passed a bill last year giving the veterans a bonus, but Gov. Daniel J. Evans vetoed the bill as unconstitutional.The club is open to all students, faculty and staff who have served in the armed forces and weredischarged under honorable conditions. Wanfed- Tutors The Student Tutoring Service is asking forvolunteers to help children who may have got a rotten deal in the public schools or whose parents maynot have the educational background to help them. The service works with children at - the Lummi Indian Tribal Center, the Boy's Club, the migrant workers, and various Bellingham elementary and secondaryschools. The service gives college students a chance to apply schoolbook psychology to actualsituations. The Student Tutoring Service has been in existence for six years and is funded by theAssociated Students. More students are needed to volunteer their time and experience toward helpingthose who have not had their academic advantages.

He called for the passage of Vote 19, adding, "I would favor Vote 12." The SWP has filed suitagainst the State of Washington voting laws which prescribe filing fees to get on the ballot.

A special state grand jury in Ohioprobing last May's Kent State University killings, exonerated National Guard troops who fired onstudents.

I have eard that there is no way short of an peration to return it to normal. Secondly, what doyou think of veight lifting as a means of keeping n shape? Vnswer; Joints are held in place by nuscles,tendons and ligaments.

People who weight lift say it's great. Most people feci that it issupplementary to a well rounded exercise program. In your case, weight lifting that would involve yourinjured shoulder should only be at your doctor's recommendation. In fact, I'd raise my arm slowly in class if I were you. Question: A few of my friends tell me that the latest fad is getting high on the scent otthe adhesive portion of Scotch magic transparent tape. Is this potentially harmful in any way? Answer:This variation on glue sniffing probably makes use of the toxic effects of either the glue or the solventused to get it off the tape. Inhalation of unknown vapors can be very dangerous, sometimes causing liverdisease of convulsions. The package for this particular tape says it is good for permanent use. Sniffingvapors can also be fatal. Question: I am engaged and have had sex. My problem is that even afterseveral times, there is still pain in the vaginal area. Also, I am not able to have an orgasm. My fiance isable to reach a climax even though I cannot. Though I love my fiance, I do not enjoy intercourse but feel-Fshould engage in such activities for his sake. Is there any explanation for the repeated pain and theinability to reach a climax? I would appreciate an immediate reply as I am extremely concerned! Answer: Unlike the man, who must be sexually excited in order to have an erection and participate in.intercourse, the woman can physically participate in intercourse regardless of her state of excitement.Your indication that you do not enjoy intercourse leads me to believe that you are probably not verysexually excited during relations. Tenseness and a lack of vaginal secretions can easily result in apainful experience when a woman attempts sexual intercourse without excitement. Orgasm becomesimpossible. Painful intercourse and lack of climax can also result when excitement- is present, but poortechnique and haste before relations begin, prevents adequate physiological and emotional preparationfor orgasm. The technical part of your question was easy to answer, but the real issue is how to dealwith your relationship with your fiance. You might consider sharing your feelings and concerns aboutintercourse with him. It takes quite a while for most people to feel at ease and enjoy sexual relations.Many couples find that sexual, relations are more satisfactory for both when it is mutually desired andthe emotional and physical aspects of a relationship are fully understood. Many unmarried couplesengage in sexual intercourse, others prefer not to. The key to a successful relationship in this areadepends more upon mutual understanding than it does on what is done or not done. Sexual Expressionin Marriage by Donald W. Hastings, M.D., Bantam Books, provides an excellent discussion of sexualtechnique. Ira Reiss's Premarital Sexual Standards in America, Free Press, paperback providesinteresting reading along a different line. Question: I am almost 19 years of age and have notexperienced nocturnal emission ("Wet dream"). Is there something wrong with me? Answer: Wetdreams are much less common or completely absent in a man who masturbates regularly or is havingregular sexual intercourse. Since almost all men past early adolescence are doing one of the other orboth, I assume you fall into this group. Ninety-nine per cent of men can't be wrong!

Everett Jensen said at a discussion with local clergy at the Campus ChristianMinistry last week.:.; Jensen said the Abortion law of 1908 was passed primarily for protection of themother against abortions of any kind because of the archaic medical practices of the day. "The state isencroaching upon an ill definition of abortion and forcing it upon the people," he said. At present,Washington's law allows abortions only if the mother's life is in danger. Jensen said the cries of murderfrom opponents of Referendum 20 is unconstructive emotionalism and blocks any rational discussion ofthe issue.

This is in no small way due to an excellent recruiting effort on thepart of Long last spring. Because of it Western is not having to overcome a sheer manpower disadvantage as in past years. But the Viking's football fortunes are to an extent being underminded by the programwithin which it exists. One area is coaching. This year the Viking football coaching staff has only threemembers. Assisting'Long are one full-time assistant and a graduate assistant. Such a situation is absurdconsidering the number of athletes involved. Of the eight Evco schools, the average football coaching staff consists of five members. Every school except Western has at least three full-time assistants. EasternWashington tops the Evco with a total of eight coaches on its football staff. Central has six, OregonCollege five, Southern Oregon five, Whitworth five, Eastern Oregon four and Oregon Tech four. But acoaching deficiency is not the only roadblock facing Viking football. Hampering recruiting are a number of factors that do not affect other Evco schools. For example Western's entering freshmen must have a 2.5grade point average in high school. Other Evco schools have entering freshman g.p.a. requirementsranging from 2.25 down to 2.0. Also due to booming enrollment Western's new policy barring out-of-statestudents adds yet another disadvantage. Another problem is that a junior varsity football program is non-existant at Western, due mostly to the fact of an inadequate staff. Another liability is that of not having afull-time trainer. Certainly graduate assistants and students handling the job do their best, but lack oftime and experience on their part make for an extremely poor situation for a college-level football program. Against some non-conference opponents even greater obstacles must be overcome. For example Simon Fraser conducts regular spring football workouts and has many players on athletic scholarships. It hasbeen factors such as these that have contributed to Western's sharing in only three conference titlessince the league was formed in 1948. In that time the other three schools in the Evco since its formation(central, Eastern, Whitworth) have won at least four outright titles and tied for another. Certainly winningis not the basic end of an educationally-oriented athletic program. But the program should at least provide some measures by which winning can be possible. If the football program at Western is going to be runonly to compete then it should be put down to the intramural level where it belongs. For many of the other values which athletics can teach, are lost in the context within which football now exists at Western. It is neither fair to the athletes or the coaches involved. w By BOB TAYLOR Football is a game full of allkinds of odysseys. For instance, the traditional dog on the field, or a scene that happened two years agoin the Orange Bowl. Kansas was battling Penn State in the game. On the next to last play of the game,Kansas got caught with 12 men on the field, which is against the rules. It didn't matter too much as Penn State scored the winning touchdown. Last Saturday a similar occurrence happened in Pullman, in theWSU-Stanford game. However this time, it wasn't a player for either team, although as things turned out,there may be a man hunt out to get this person. From the UPI comes this story of a WSU fan, whobecame tired of watching Stanford roll point after point up on the scoreboard, and decided to dosomething about it. His target was Stanford's Eric Cross. Cross had just sprinted 25 yards untouchedand was approaching the WSU goal-line. The fan, unable to contain himself any longer, jumped out of the stands and nailed Cross with a pretty good tackle at the five yard line. Cross, momentarily stunned,regained his senses and scored. The fan was last seen escorted from the game by some police officers.However, because of circumstances (WSU losing 63-16), there may be a man-hunt to recruit this vicioustackle for the WSU team. * * * Off the Bench had a pretty good week, prediction wise, hitting nine out of 10.

Western Falls to UPS, 34-14 The University of Puget Sound (UPS) Loggers, capitalizing on Viking turnovers withsparkling play by quarterback Bob Cason, defeated Western 34-14 Saturday night at Civic Stadium.Three Western fumbles in a rain-drenched first quarter paved the way for the Loggers as they sped to a20-0 lead in the first eleven minutes of play. After losing a fumble on the UPS 45 yard line, the Vikingsfound themselves on their own three yard line on a subsequent Logger punt. There, fullback Tom Wigg's fumble was recovered by UPS linebacker Roy Bogrand on the two. The Loggers wasted no time asfullback John Garland carried it over and Jaap Van Erk kicked his first of four extra points. Westerncouldn't muster an attack on the ensuing kickoff and punted out to their own 49. It took the Loggers onlyfive plays to score their second touchdown as Cason tallied on a 20-yard sprint. Again the Vikings foundthe football hard to handle as Wigg fumbled to the Logger's Dave McKim on the first play fromscrimmage following the UPS kickoff. The Loggers covered the 27 yards in five plays as Cason took itover from the one for a 20-0 lead as Van Erk missed the point after. In the second quarter Westernmounted a comeback as they marched 46 yards in 11 plays for their first touchdown as QuarterbackGlenn Hadland replacing starter Steve Johnson, plunged over from the 1. Lance Wilson kicked the extrapoint. The drive was set up on a pass interception by safety Vic Randall, the twentieth of his career.Four minutes later the Vikings were on the scoreboard again as Wigg took a Hadland screen pass 17yards for the TD. The score was made possible by freshman Jody Miller, who electrified the crowd of3,500 with a 67-yard punt return to the UPS 17 yard line. Wilson's kick put the Vikings on the short endof a 20-14 score at halftime. The third quarter and much of the fourth proved to be a fierce defensivebattle. Western has numerous opportunities to score on two fumble recoveries by linebacker Mark Venn and interception by half-back Kevin Halliburton. Venn's first recovery came on the UPS 17 yard line. The Vikings got to the 10 where Wilson missed a field goal attempt. The second recovery by Venn was onthe UPS 38, but it too went for nothing as the Vikings failed to make a first down on a fourth and inchessituation. With eight minutes remaining in the contest Bogrand intercepted a Hadland pass on theWestern 49 yard line. r' By PAUL MADISON In six plays Cason directed the Loggers into the end zone, firing a 13-yard touchdown to end Dan Johnson. The last Logger score came with only 26 seconds leftas Cason capped a 70-yard drive, throwing another TD pass to Bill Hecker of 8 yards. In all UPS had 354 yards in total offense to Western's 202. Cason completed 11 of 18 passes for 118 yards and rushedanother 86 for 204 total yards. Garland rushed 93 yards in 27 carries for the Loggers while Heckercaught 5 passes for 45 yards and Mark Ross three for 42 yards. Western's Hadland was held to only 79yards passing as he completed 7 of 14. Wigg caught 3 for 31 yards and Neil Crawford 2 for 30 yards.Wigg rushed for 62 yards in 21 carries and halfback Rob Lonborg 35 yards in 12 attempts. DefensivelyVenn turned in an outstanding game for the Vikings. Besides two fumble recoveries, the juniorintercepted a pass and was in on 22 tackles. Tackle Jim Kleitsch did a fine job for the Logger "stop"squad.

The Vik booters, two-time Western Washington SoccerConference champions, dominated play at both ends of the field, especially in the first half. In the firsthalf the Viks ripped SPC for seven goals and controlled the ball so that SPC got just two shots on theWestern goal, both stopped by Vik goalie Lome Turner. Meanwhile the explosive Viks went to work onthe SPC goal. Bob Mills' head-shot goal in the early minutes of play set the stage for Western's scoringspree. Mills went on to score two more times before the first half ended.

LEE MARVIN "MONTEWALSH A CINEMA CENTER FILMS PRESENTATION A NATIONAL GENERAL PICTURES RELEASEPANAVISI0NÂ»and TECHNICOLOR- \GP\ lt;@ Feminine Physicist Joins Faculty A new form hasbeen added to the Physics department in the person of Miss Margaret Herz. For the first time thedepartment has a woman instructor. Originally from Chicago, the 27-year-old Miss Herz expects toreceive her Ph.D. in astrophysics within the next few months. Commenting on her unique position in thedepartment Miss Herz said, "It's okay. I'm used to being in the minority." Presently teaching a lecture101 course in Physics and four labs, she is tentatively planning to teach an Astronomy course nextquarter. Miss Herz chose Physics because it appeared the most elemental and basic of sciences. â€¢"I like astrophysics because it takes in almost all fields of physics," she explained. On a broader scope, Western's physics department is looking ahead to the 1970-71 academic year. Dr. R. McLeod, physics department chairman, recently explained the philosophy of the physics department in relation to thephysics 101 program. "Our responsibility is to the institution and the student not the department," Dr.McLeod explained. "Our basic problem is to ensure quality teaching at the introductory level," heemphasized. Some 900 students are currently enrolled in Physics 101 and Dr. McLeod predicts some2300 students will have taken the course by the end of the school year. "Students are scared to death of Physics," McLeod said. He believes 75 per cent of the students wouldn't take the course if they didn'thave to. Yet he sees a New Education Masters Degree A master of education with a major in adulteducation administration is being offered through the graduate school at Western. Primary emphasis inthe program is placed on institutional development, administrative techniques, adult learning theory, and - curriculum planning and programming. Western is now offering a graduate program to prepareprofessionals for careers in in-service training in business, industry and government; community serviceand adult education programs with libraries, museums, voluntary organizations, public schools,community colleges_ and YMCA/YWCA; governmental agencies; and college and university ' continuing education divisions. Applications are invited from persons with a bachelor degree and a minimum of 3.0grade average during the last year of undergraduate study and at least a 2.5 grade point average overall.A limited number of graduate assistantships, scholarships and grants are available. Further informationcan be obtained from the department of continuing studies. basic grasp of physics as elemental inunderstanding the basic structure and movement of life. "We want to give the student a generalunderstanding of the principles of physics so he can become better informed on the world he lives in,"Dr. McLeod stated. "Now we are trying to get the student so they aren't afraid of physics, so they'llconsider it^.We spend the first two weeks getting the students to feel comfortable in class," he said. He tentatively posed several reasons for student apprehensions about physics. Students usually have nogreat familiarity with physics he said. They have a picture of a terribly advanced and mathematicalscience McLeod explained. The philosophy of the physics program is not to convert students to physics major but merely to give them a basic understanding of the science and relate it to their everyday world. "We could put our 900 students in one auditorium and cut labs," he pointed out. "If this was done thedepartment could gain 100 hours of instruction; yet we could still claim the same number of credit hoursand shift instructors into research to get their instructor hours," he hypothesized. Though such a change would allow more research and time with graduates, Dr. McLeod is against that approach. He believesthe greatest concentration should be on the undergraduate student who is taking introductory physicsand needs a basic understanding of the course as part of his liberal education. Phantom PiperMysterious bagpipe music coming from the woods has the bonnie lads and lassies on upper campusshaking in their kilts. The music was reported to be heard "echoing" through the woods. So far thesource of the music hasn't been located causing one student to comment, "It must be a spook." Firstreports of the Phantom Piper (as the player is now called) was brought to the Front's attention twoweeks ago. The reports were dismissed as bad weed or hysteria. But Jeff Foss, a Highland Hallresident, says he isn't (and wasn't) hysterical and calmly stated, "I've heard The Phantom Piper play."Armed with nothing but Scottish nerve, Foss has formed a one man task force to find the Phantom."First, two other bagpipe players tried to draw the Phantom out with their music," Foss said. Althoughthe pipers played until the wee hours "they didn't have much luck." Not one to give up easily, Foss andtwo volunteers set out one Friday evening to track down the Phantom. "We heard the music coming from the woods," Foss said, "but when we got close the music seemed to drift away. Pretty freaky, huh?"Whether it's "pretty freaky" or not, Foss said the search will continue. "Until we find the Phantom or themusic stops." "The whole thing reminds me of the old snipe hunts I used to go on," one upper classmansaid when asked for a comment about the Phantom. VV y y y y gt; gt;â€¢ yy â€¢Â» yy yy ^.yy .y^ gt; ' A/.W.

Instead they passed along individual concerns expressed by the members of the taskforce. Draft legislation H-244 would set tuition at twenty-five per cent of the cost of instruction. The rateswould be calculated each ensuing biennium, based on data collected by the Council on PostsecondaryEducation. The bill would also establish a Permanent Advisory Committee on Student Financial Aid.Members of the committee would be financial aids officers and students from the state colleges,universities and community colleges. It would be established within the CPE. Forty per cent of tuition and fees could be waived for students enrolled in programs designated by the CPE as "manpower shortage areas." The average wage of Washington state workers would be the basis for tuition under draftlegislation H-245. For example, tuition for the 1977 to 79 biennium would be determined by the averagewage of fiscal year 1976. The last proposed tuition bill, H-246, would set tuition at $193.10 per quarter forresident students and $468.40 for non-resident students at the three state colleges, Western, Easternand Central. University of Washington resident students would pay $218.20 and non-resident studentswould pay $536.20. Resident students at Washington State University would pay the same as UWresidents, while non-resident students would pay $526.20. The bill would also establish the financial aidcommittee and an Office of Tuition Adjustment within the CPE. The office would determine three rangesof parental and student income which would correspond to percentage reductions in tuition. One member of the task force said none of the bills would generate the revenue designated by Governor Daniel Evansas needed to fund higher education, but H-244 (cost of instruction bill) would generate the most.Members expressed some skepticism at setting up the Office of Tuition Adjustment within the CPE. One said it seemed that a "Super Board of Regents" was being established. The Citizens' Task Force onTuition was established last year by Maxie in order to find the most equitable way to charge tuition.The CPE completed a massive study on tuition this past year and came up with the cost of instructionstandard for assessing tuition. WESTERN front TUESDAY, TANUARY 11, 1977 VOL. 69 NO. 18 Grantreceived for Lummi class by SANDY CATT . Educational opportunities offered by Western will sooninclude a communications class on the Lummi reservation, following receipt of - a $9,000 grantannounced by College President Paul Olscamp. The pilot program, designed by Pete Steffens,journalism department acting chairman, and Willie Jones, Lummi tribe communications director,received its initial funding last Thursday from the Gannett Foundation. The foundation recentlyestablished a policy of supporting programs to develop communications skills of minorities uT thestate. After learning of the foundation's policy, Steffens contacted different minority groups in theNorthwest about the desirability of a communications class. Jones responded and the two menplanned a class. The foundation responded to Steffens' idea with the check. Jones said this class willhelp a large number of people, enabling them to prepare better copy for the tribe's newsletter. He also anticipates an increase in the newsletter's circulation, into Bellingham, after the class. "I'm really gladwe got the opportunity to get the grant," Jones said. Steffens, who has had experience teachingminorities, will teach the class. "Part of the meaning of life is to do things for other people. Part of thatmeaning for a teacher in the Northwest is to teach Indian people what they want to know," Steffens said. ' The ten-week course, called Communications I, will meet twice a week, starting Jan. 24. Classenrollment will be about 15. Jones said students will be from the newsletter staff, the Lummi School ofAquaculture, the youth coordinator and others who are interested in getting news in the newsletter.Studies will include general news and feature writing, public relations releases, grant writing andofficial reports writing. "We're really looking forward to the class because it will upgrade the paper,"Jones said. He also said there is wide recognition that native Americans feel the need to developthemselves in writing. He regrets that the American Indian Press Association has not been able to domore in this area for the Indian peoples.

Photo by Bill Slater ---------- Western Front - 1977 January 11 - Page 2 ---------- 2 Western Front Tuesday, January 11, 1977 Many put out by power shortage I FOUK/D IT by CLAYHARTL The recent power shortage at Western brought quite a few dorm residents closer together.Mostly they were little groups of people who fell down the stairs together. Shouts of "Matches!" and"Candles!" echoed down the halls and passageways. The quest for light brought out the criminalinstincts in many people as they stole the candles from Saga after the romantic candlelight dinner,which turned out to be peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and milk. Some people went to theextremes looking for light. Tales floated down about crazies dressed up in robes carrying candles and chanting weird things. The leader was carrying a flaming broom for a torch- It would be no surprise atall if numerous burnt brooms and mops are found in the days to come. There were a few casualties, ofcourse. The ice on the ground and new frost caused many slips and falls. Colds and flu ran rampant after the heat stopped working. One student, after taking the advice of a friend, filled a wine glass withrubbing alcohol and set it on fire for use as a torch. The wine glass started melting very quickly and herdesk was the scene of many little flash fires, all of which had to be beaten out with a rug. Many peoplerealized how dependent they were on electricity, especially after they realized that without electricitythere can be no music. The peaceful silence by the Ridge-way dorms was a definite pleasure to many,after the usual deafening music. The power loss caught many people with their pants down, literally.This reporter, and probably many others also, was reading a book in the bathroom when calamity struck. Frantic cries of "I can't find the goddamn paper!" permeated the initial silence. Although most peoplewere shocked or frustrated when the power loss first occurred, afterwards most agreed that we reallyneed a good power shortage once in a while, just to relieve the monotony. Mayor opposes liquor license, hopes crippled by GREG HOOFNAGLE Western's chances for a beer and wine service may be crippled by Bellingham Mayor Ken Hertz's public announcement that he would oppose granting of liquor licensesto the college. Recently, SAGA Food Service and the Viking Union made joint application to theWashington State Liquor Control Board for Class A and Class C liquor licenses. Should the applicationgo through, beer and wine sales would begin in the VU Coffee Shop's Auxiliary Room. Proposed hoursfor the service are noon-7 p.m., weekdays. SAGA would manage the sales and ID checking. However,Hertz's statement struck fear in . some hearts. AS President Bruce. Ayers said from what he could tell"no liquor licenses get through when city hall opposes." The mayor gave several reasons for not wantingbeer and wine sales at Western. In a statement to the liquor board Hertz wrote: "I am opposed todecentralization of taverns or places that permanently serve alcoholic beverages, particularly in residential neighborhoods." Hertz referred to the college as "a prime residential area." The mayor also stressed hewas not trying to spite Western. His philosophy is preventing the spread of liquor sales throughoutneighborhoods. Several people were skeptical, however. VU Director Jack Smith calls Western"somewhat of a city within a city." He does not believe "a Evening shuttle service No longer free for riders The evening shuttle bus service between campus and the Mall is no longer free to students, due to the cost of chartering a bus. The $5,000 bill for the shuttle service was split last year by the AS andthe Parking and Transportation Commission, and the Commission can't afford to share the bill,according to R. G. Peterson, Director of Security. "Unless we charge a fee, we'd have to discontinue the shuttle service altogether. The college community of over 10,000 people concentrated on a campuscan be considered a residential neighborhood." Smith explained that such areas, defined for zoningpurposes, do not offer multi-unit and high-rise living complexes, office space for over a thousandemployes, performance facilities, a bookstore, conference facilities, restaurants and so on. Hertz alsonoted that 40 per cent of Western's student population is under drinking age. Ayers, however, flipped thecoin and said that over 7,000 people on campus are of drinking age. The mayor worried that BellinghamPolice Department efforts to curb serious juvenile drinking problems would be harmed by exposing"approximately 3,680 juveniles to open drinking on campus . . . " (Note: Apparently, the mayor meantthere are about 3,680 Western students under drinking age. Since a juvenile in Bellingham is generallysomeone under 18, there are only about 145 on campus.) Chief of Police Terry Mangan did not saywhether he supported a beer and wine service for Western, but he did state that his "primary concern islocal high school students." He could recall no major drinking hassles with Western students. That, hesaid, was Western campus security territory. Robert G. Peterson, head of campus security, saidcampus drinking problems were minimal. In fact, he has not given the liquor license application muchthought. "It's not that big an issue," he said. ' Ayers agreed. "Having beer and wine is not a big emotional issue," he said. "We're not asking for a pub and we've imposed upon ourselves very restrictive hours."Both Ayers and Smith called the proposed liquor service a very low-key operation. They also believeWestern's application is unique because it is not asking for pub hours, but for limited weekday service.Ayers said that Eastern Washington State College applied for liquor licenses, wanting a campus pub.The licenses were not granted. "We're not asking for what other people are asking for," he said. WhileWestern may not be looking for a pub, it does want a regular beer and wine service. Currently, liquor isavailable only on an irregular basis with banquet permits. College President Paul Olscamp, VicePresident for Student Affairs C.W. "Bill" McDonald, and the AS have all approved Western's liquorlicense request. However, if the liquor board shows signs of issuing the A and C licenses, Hertz hasasked for a public hearing. He suggests that Bellingham citizens would oppose issuance, 2-to-l. Parking and Transportation monies are for parking lots," said Peterson. Peterson said a poll showed studentsare willing to pay to ride the shuttle, which originally started on a trial basis as a result of studentconcern about night time assaults on women in the campus area. Students seem to be taking thechange good-naturedly. As one bus rider said, "It was nice having it free, but it's still cheap. I'd ride mybike but I ran't take theso hills," / / â€¢;'^ftSCUT ABOVE pEQiyiE.TFJ.^AIR CUTTING FOR MEN WOMEN 'â€¢\. gt;-s' .\.JvAmL\.

The increases recommended by the council give Western a 10 per cent increase, butWestern, as an individual institution, will ask the state legislature for another 4.5 per cent to sufficientlycover cost-of-living increases and consumer prices. The council had originally recommended a 13.9 percent increase for the cost of living at a cost of $71.7 million. The increase was based'on a seven-statesurvey of institutions with similar economies. A problem of salary equalization arose. In the seven-statesurvey average, some institutions' faculty salaries were above the average and Veterans Administrationsays: some were below. Western was 5.6 per cent below this seven-state average. The governor'sbudget for higher education stands at $1.2 billion, including his 12 per cent recommended increase forfaculty salaries. The budget stands at $728.5 million excluding faculty increases. Included in the budgetis a financial aid recommendation and a tuition increase. A report on House Floor Resolution 66 (HFR66), "Budgeting and Expending of Services and Activities Fees," was also discussed by the council. Areview of this discussion will be reported at a later date. A fall enrollment report showed that enrollment is down from 1975 to 76 in state colleges, universities, community colleges and private institutions. "Hie number of high school graduates has greatly affected enrollment, as has community college transfers. Enrollment of community college transfers has remained essentially the same at Western. There hasbeen a decline in veteran enrollment but an increase in women enrollment, where there is potentialincrease of women graduate students. Part time enrollment has remained relatively constant in mostcolleges but "the .number of baccalaurate-bound students will be down dramatically in the 1980s,"according to Denis Curry, member of the council staff presenting the material and statistics. "Totalenrollment has been affected," he said, "because the social need for college has been changed due tothe options after high school of which there are a wide variety. Dr. Smiley Obituary No pay for non-punitive grades by MICHAEL WHITTEN The Veterans Administration has issued new regulations whichdo not allow the VA to pay for courses in which a non-punitive grade is received unless there aremitigating circumstances. The new legislation became effective December 1, 1976. Non-punitivegrades are those that are not counted toward graduation requirements or are not computed in thestudent's grade point average. While the VA will not necessarily reduce benefits if a student receivesan "F" under the regular grading system, they will possibly reduce or terminate benefits retroactively foran entire quarter if a student receives a grade of "NP". In the past, if a veteran dropped a class involving enough credits to affect his benefits, the VA would reduce or terminate benefits only from the date ofwithdrawal. The new regulations are such that benefits are likely to be affected for the entire quarter,retroactively. The entire quarter will be involved unless the veteran can prove to the VA that mitigatingcircumstances were involved in the course drop or school withdrawal. These circumstances, such asillness or financial problems that keep a student from attending class, are those beyond the control ofthe student. "Veterans should not necessarily avoid the Pass/Fail system but they should be aware of what could happen if they receive a NP" grade," VA representative Jeremy Stamden said. TheRegistrar has recommended that all veterans avoid the Pass/Fail system. Veterans who receive anincomplete will have one quarter to complete the class. The VA will contact any student who receivesa non-punitive grade and request any mitigating circumstances prior to reduction of payments backto December 1, 1976, or the beginning of a term. Stamden also announced that effective October 1,1976 maximum benefits were increased to 45 months for veterans with over one and a half yearsactive duty. Memorial services for Dr. Sandra S. Smiley, associate professor of psychology atWestern, were held Dec. 12, at St. James Presbyterian Church. She died Dec. 2 of cancer. Dr. Smiley,34, joined Western's staff in 1969 and was promoted to associate professor with tenurein 1974. Inaddition to her extensive research in the area of child development and psychology, she taught coursesin general psychology, child development and cognitive development. She is survived by herparents, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Smiley of Cardiff, California; a sister, Priscilla Tragesser of Bellingham; a brother, Lt. Phil Smiley in the U.S. Navy; and three sisters in California, Ar-dith, Faye and Julie Smiley. She was recently conducting research in the areas of reading and memory, and has reports that areyet to be published. DISLIKE DENTISTRY?

If we* are to believe Bellingham Mayor Ken Hertz, Western students are not able to handlebeer and wine maturely. Plans for serving beer and wine in the Viking Union's Coffee Shop AuxiliaryRoom and in ala carte dining areas were dealt a near death blow when Hertz publicly announced hewould oppose granting of class 'A' and *C liquor licenses to Western. Hertz stated there were adequatedrinking establishments in Bellingham. Western, however, is not trying to form "another drinkingestablishment." As explained in Western's application to the Washington State Liquor Board, beer andwine would only be served from noon to 7 p.m., Monday through Friday. The times speak for themselves:There would be no pub, there would be no night and weekend sales of booze, there would hardly be anydrinking problems. Furthermore, how does one determine whether Bellingham has "adequate" drinkingfacilities? Limits cannot really be set. New drinking places appear regularly in Bellingham and in mosttowns and cities. The reasons for wanting a liquor license are simple. First, many students like wine withtheir meals. Second, academic interaction is more relaxed and often more effective over a beer or two.Finally, Western offers a plethora of services â€” conveniently. Sale of beer and wine is an obviousexception; one has to go all the way downtown for that. Hertz complains of the 3680 Western studentswho are under drinking age. He seems to have forgotten nearly 5500 students who are of age, not tomention scores of professors, administrators and other school personnel. Many of these people coulduse a glass of wine or a schooner to unwind a bit during a busy day. However, they usually do not havethe time to head downtown. The mayor also fears efforts of the Bellingham Police Department to curbdrinking problems would be hurt. Yet, Chief of Police Terry Mangan says his department has had littletrouble with drunk Western students. His biggest headache is high schoolers. Even in the unlikely eventa noticeable drinking problem does occur at Western, it would be the concern of campus security, notthe BPD. Serving beer and wine on campus would have no major impact. It would be a handy service tothose of age. It would be restricted to daytime, weekday hours. It would take place in existingfacilitiestand adequate staffing through SAGA is available to check ID. It would not detract from profits ofdowntown drinking spots, whose biggest earnings come during evening and weekends. It would havevirtually no effect on BPD efforts to curb drinking hassles. Western, with all its services, is like a citywithin a city. Whoever heard of a city in which there was no beer or wine? â€” Greg Hoofnagle editorialPardon for war resisters long overdue In the past few years, Vietnam deserters and draft resisters havebeen branded criminals, banished and forgotten â€” simply for being correct about an immoral, incorrectwar. It appears now this injustice will be corrected. Whether it's Ford or Carter who enacts the pardon isunimportant â€” the pardon itself is long overdue. Ford's initial amnesty program for war resisters simplyhasn't worked. The fact that he is considering a blanket pardon is evidence of this. If Ford does grantamnesty to Vietnam war resisters, he will be ending his presidency on a positive note. If nothing else,Ford has done much to restore faith in government. If he enacts a pardon, he will further this. If Forddoesn't grant amnesty for the resisters, Carter almost certainly will. Carter promised to do so in the firstweek of his presidency during his campaign. By enacting a pardon, Carter would begin his presidencyon a strong note, perhaps setting the tone for the following days of his administration. Whether it's Fordor Carter doesn't matter. By pardoning Vietnam-era war resisters, Carter or Ford will be benefittingthemselves, the American people, and most importantly, the resisters. They've suffered too much forbeing right. compost by HARRY McFARLAND The Council on Postsecondary Education (CPE) hasbeen designated in two bills to set up under its authority, a committee on financial aid. In one other bill, they will be authorized to organize an Office on Tuition Adjustment. One member of the Citizen's TaskForce on Tuition commented that the CPE might be a "Super Board of Regents." This seems to be out of the character in which the CPE was organized; when they were first conceived in 1969, the termdescribing their establishment was an advisory body. It did not take long for them (a nine-membercitizens' board of directors and a staff) to become a policy-making body for higher education in the state. They have not been a very popular body, but for some reason they gained more and more power.Setbacks for the CPE were small, until it proposed a tuition hike in 1973. At that time, a small group ofmavericks (radical student-rightists) fought with such intensith that the bill and its originators werehumiliated in hearings. (One CPE staffer, while trying desperately to defend the bill, remarked that hismother in Ohio supported the bill.) The mavericks were a group of students organized under the banner of Council of Representatives and Presidents (CORP), a group of community college students. It was thefirst time CPE recommendations had not been accepted by the legislators. Added to the Office of TuitionAdjustment and financial aids committee is a CPE staffer's remarks that an organization to standardizecourse equivalencies between community colleges, state colleges and universities, should beestablished. Where would this organization reside? In the CPE, of course. To many, especially studentleaders, there has come a time for the legislators to re-evaluate the role of the CPE. No one wants asuper-agency or super board of regents, not only taking away the individual decision powers of the statecolleges, universities and community colleges, but also grabbing some of the monies allocated forhigher education. As the money problem becomes critical for the state, one of the areas that will be toldto pull in its belt will be higher education. Some of the CPE decisions have been most disturbing toadministrators, student leaders and legislators alike. The 4-4 vote that killed the recommendations togive state colleges, excluding Evergreen State College, university status, was met with extremedisappointment last year. The evidence presented to the CPE in favor of university status wasoverwhelming, so much so that most of the opposition backed off. During Friday's meeting of the CPE, avote to recommend a 14 per cent faculty salary hike failed. An earlier 10 per cent recommendation bythe CPE was allowed to stand. Western administrators have indicated 4.5% more will be needed andwill take their ideas to the legislature, as if they needed more business to occupy their time. That 10 percent recommendation would keep Western faculty members below the CPE's much-quoted seven stateaverage. If the CPE is the super agency, then faculty, administrators and students are going to findthemselves in a very precarious position. When power moves up the ladder, everyone loses. It is very hard to run down to Olympia to express one's opinion, but that it what might have to be done. front staffEDITOR: Liz Verdier MANAGING EDITOR: Tori Bonneville NEWS EDITOR: Harry McFarland PHOTOEDITOR: Bill Slater ARTS ENTERTAINMENT: Don Creery SPORTS EDITOR: Dave MiltenbergerCOPY EDITORS: Bart Potter, Michael Whitten, Jim Harrison, Greg Hoofnagle.

The stoppage was due to theschools' assistant attorney generals' requests, after conferring with school officials. All participatingschools, except Western, were stopped from paying SCC dues. The SCC is a private, non-profitorganization formed to help solve student problems on a statewide basis. Eastern, Western and CentralWashington State Colleges, Washington State University and the University of Washington participate.A suit was recently instigated by the SCC to establish students' rights to have separate legal counsel indisputes with their schools. Students and their schools now have the same council because they bothcome under state jurisdiction. A legislative liaison has been hired by the SCC to represent students'interests in this year's legislative session. Richard Montecucco, assistant attorney general, stateeducation division, said the schools' dues were stopped on the basis of a decision made four to five years ago. At that time, the attorney general's office decided in the case of a community college organizationthat if its primary function was to lobby, the use of state funds for that organization was improper. Thecommunity college group demonstrated lobbying was not its primary function, a demonstration that theSCC has not made, according to Montecucco. The basic reason the dues were stopped at Central,according to Steve Milam, its assistant attorney general, was because it appeared the purpose of theSCC was to lobbby. Milam feels the burden of proof is on the SCC, "I don't believe they have provided any evidence, [to the contrary] at least I haven't seen any." Bruce Ayers, Western associated studentspresident, feels the attorney general's office is using an arbitrary decision, based upon its owninterpretation of the activities of the SCC. "SCC is an effective organization and I think we have effectivepeople working against us," Ayers said. He said the SCC is attempting to convince the schools'assistant attorney generals that the blocking of the dues was wrong. According to Ayers, the SCC isdealing with issues that are important to students: collective bargaining, students' involvement in thedistributions of fees and the right to representation. He said he feels the burden of proof does not reston the SCC, but on the officials which ruled the dues improper. Sue Meyers, AS secretary-treasurer and SCC secretary, feels the ruling is an effort to destroy the SCC. "I don't think they have a lot to stand on,but it's a delaying tactic," she said. Western's dues were not stopped because unlike the other schools,Western's associated students have their own checking account and the check was received by the SCC before officials were aware of the attorney general's decision. Montecucco said that if the primaryfunction of the SCC was lobbying, then Western had made an improper expenditure and there would beah attempt to get the money from SCC. Trustees get budget.Olscamp gives views Trustees confident byJIM HARRISON Governor Dan Evans' recommended 1977-79 biennial budget was received withmixed feelings at Thursday's Board of Trustees meeting. College President Paul Olscamp spoke forseveral minutes outlining his appraisal of the budget and expressing dissatisfaction with some of itsprovisions, including instructional allotments. Among other things, the budget includes faculty salaryadjustments of 12 per cent and an increase in annual undergraduate resident tuition and fees from$507 to $615 or from the current $169 per quarter to $205 per quarter. Olscamp criticized thegovernor's recommendations in the area of instruction, saying they were inadequate to meetWestern's needs for the biennium. The recommended increases in both faculty staffing andoperations support funds for instruction fell short of what the college had asked for. "While [theincrease] represents an improvement in support funds, it is insufficient to meet our needs as support dollars have steadily declined in terms of buying power," said the Business and Financial Affairs officein its analysis of the recommended budget.

Instead of an altar rail, an oak-topped bar now stretches across the front of this space. To oneside, where the confessionals were located, is a kitchen. And when some of the local patrons go to usethe restrooms, they retrace the steps they took years before as altar boys, disappearing into the vestry.Behind the bar, near where the pulpit stood, Joe and Colleen Sheare move quietly back and forth, 'notsermonizing, just serving beer and conversation to their customers. The Sheares opened the Holy Smoke Tavern in the old St. Peter's Catholic Church near Kendall on Oct. 15 of last year, "after one-and-a-halfyears of fighting to get it open." Kendall is a small community in the foothills of Mt. Baker, about 20 miles east of Bellingham. lt; According to Mrs. Sheare, opposition to their venture came not from members of St. Peter's, but from other churches. The former owners sold the Sheares the land and building with theunderstanding they could do with it as they liked, she said. Several people who attended the church arenow customers of the tavern, and the priest stops in now and then, she reported. Several years ago, themembers of the congregation built a larger, more modern building on a new site, and the old church waseventually sold to the Sheares. In recent years, the once-isolated and unlikely spot for a tavern has come to be surrounded by recreational land developments. Mrs. Sheare estimates that 60 per cent of theirbusiness comes from Canadians â€” most of whom own lots in the developments. The other 40 per centcomes from permanent local residents. Inside, the building is quite small and still looks pretty much likea church, except for the bar and the two pool tables that occupy what was once the center aisle. Whenanother old country church was sold recently, the Sheares bought the pews, which were the originalpews of St. Peter's, built in 1910. They cut them in half and placed them back to back along each wallwith tables in between. Colleen Sheare proudly calls attention to a symbol of customer support â€” themoney wheel. Up on the wall behind the bar, directly in front of where the altar stood, is a circle ofbanknotes, like a fan of cards. Mrs. Sheare tells the story of how an early supporter signed a dollar billfor good luck and told them to put it up on the wall. Since then, many customers have followed suit. Now the wall is decorated with currency from several countries, including Scotland, Japan, Germany andAustralia. "There's so much luck and love up there that this place couldn't fail if it tried," Mrs. Sheare said on Christmas Eve.

Avenue Preezeout â€” by STEVE ADAMS After 2million albums, the world takes to Heart 1976 was a good year for many, but any time you can go fromplaying taverns to huge halls, and selling over 2 million albums and over 1 million singles in a year, you'vehad a fairly good year. So it was for the Seattle band known as Heart. "The story is a bit phenomenal,"said the group's manager, Ken Kinnear, from his Albatross Productions office in Seattle. After selling over 45,000 albums in Canada and having three top ten singles, no major U.S. Label was willing to gamble onthe group. So their label, Mushroom Records, began pushing the album, "Dreamboat Annie," in Seattle.New sci-fi book old stuff HEART â€” One of the biggest surprises in music world for 1976. "The major FMstations, KISW, KZOK, and KZAM all gave the album a good deal of airplay and that generated the hugeamount of sales," Kinnear said. Record store owners throughout the greater Seattle area couldn't keepenough Heart albums on their shelves as people began picking up the band. From then on it was a breeze as national airplay was given to the infectious first single released in the U.S., "Crazy On You." Later, at a New Year's Eve party at the Pipeline Tavern in Seattle, several of the band on vacation over the holidays talked with enthusiasm about the success. "It took a long time, but we finally made it. Next year isgoing to be even bigger I think," the group's lead guitarist, Roger Fisher, said. 'Next year' is a 1977 tourof the world, as the group will start in Japan and eventually cover the rest of the globe before 1978. Before the holidays they were in Europe. Everyone knows that one album doesn't make a solid foundation in the fast-changing music world, and Heart knows that. "The next album is going to be dynamite, you watch.We're feeling out a couple of studios here in Seattle for possibly laying down some vocal and guitartracks, right now," Mike Fisher, Roger's brother and the group's soundman said. Heart's second albumwill be entitled "Heartless," and will be released tentively in late February. The album has taken almost ayear to complete, with "Dreamboat Annie" producer Mike Flicker producing again. Art exhibition datesset The Western Gallery's first exhibition for winter quarter will be a series of four installation piecesby Lawrence Hanson of the art department. The dates for the four installations are: "Memories ofMyself, III" â€” Jan 17 to 21. "Untitled (Reflections)" â€” Jan 17 to 21. "Arch" â€” Jan 24 to 28. by DANSMITH ALTERNATE WORLDS: THE ILLUSTRATED HISTORY OF SCIENCE FICTION by James Gunn. Paperback, A W Visual Library [1975] $7.95. In the introduction, Gunn says that he will, in futurereferences, call his book AW, pronounced "awe" ... it should be AW as in "aw-shucks." Anyoneexpecting to find a literate treatment of major themes and developments in the field of science fiction willfind themselves tantalized to the point of rising interest only to be jilted, just at the point of fulfillment, so the author can run away with a traveling salesman. I refer to the middle chapters of the book, dealingwith the 1920's through mid-sixties. This forms a major portion of the book, but consists chiefly of adroning reference guide to obscure publications and publishers, replete with dates and lists ofstories, the significance of which are rarely pointed out. Lessons offered Fairhaven College is offeringprivate music instruction this quarter to all Western students, beginners included, according toLaurence Kee, Fair-haven faculty member. "We are offering a unique package of instruction incontemporary music that ranges from private lessons in voice, piano, guitar, flute and otherinstruments, through professional training in recording production in our new 4-track recording studio,"Kee said. Kee, an independent record producer and recording engineer, said that the facilities aregreat for recording demo tapes of groups and student songwriters, and for learning the technology ofart of professional recording. Students interested in the Fairhaven music program should see Kee atthe studio in the Fairhaven main building, or contact the Fairhaven registrar at 676-3698 for registrationinformation. MJUUPQSg meocwr â€¢nPORTS JEWELRY POTTERY CLOTHING HANDCRAFTSSALE The Marketplace in old Fairhaven Imagine, if you will, a history of American literature in whichthe chief stars are Lippincott, Doubleday, Simon, Schuster and company and you have the main thrustof this survey. Gunn wastes a good deal of space at the beginning of the book proselytizing to thealready converted in a discussion of how science fiction has entered the mainstream, but still worksup that aforementioned interest in some excellent chapters that trace science fiction themes fromancient Greece through Jules Verne and H. G. Wells. The most meaty material is when Gunn tells usthat he considers Heinlein (the John Wayne of science fiction, Van- Vogt (prince of illogicality),Sturgeon and Asimov to be the Big Four of science fiction. Despite the fuss he makes about sciencefiction as literature in the earlier chapters, such names as Ray Bradbury (the single most legitimizinginfluence in the field), Fritz Leiber, Henry Kuttner, Philip Jose Farmer and Roger Zelazny go by with barely a mention. The word illustrated should be more heavily stressed as the main appeal of this book.There are excellent reproductions of covers by such great science fiction illustrators as Hannes Bok,Em Emshwiller, Chesley Bonestell, Kelly Freas and others. Also, if you've ever wondered what yourfavorite author looks like, this book is a veritable Hall-of-Fame portrait gallery. ATTENTION ALLMUSICIANS!

Two Ferndale men, Randy Permann, 29, and Bob King, 23, have opened a non-alcoholic nightclub in their town called the Music Factory.Previously, young people have had to be satisfied with high school dances or private parties if they wereunder legal drinking age. Permann and King want to offer them an alternative. In case those past high-school age fear the atmosphere might be teen-dominated, the partners give assurance that their clubwill provide all the entertainments of a nightclub or tavern, minus only the alcohol. "We'd like to see thecollege-age people come down," Permann told the Bellingham Herald recently. Permann said the MusicFactory will have live music on weekends and recorded music the rest of the week. There are pool tablesand electronic games. Hot sandwiches and other food items will be available as soon as they get apermit from the Health Department, he said. On opening day, just before Christmas, Permann was outworking in the cold, hurrying to finish last minute preparations. Inside, at least a dozen more people werebusy finishing the stage and working on the dance floor. The nightclub occupies a portion'of the oldCarnation plant on the outskirts of Ferndale and share the building with a fish-processing operation, akarate school and an alterations shop. With the help of friends and using some recycled materials suchas lumber and electrical conduit, Permann and King have managed to convert their section of the oldplant without making a major investment. Permann estimates they have put about $10,000 into theirventure so far. Improvements included sandblasting the interior and installing wiring and restrooms. Ashe measured and sawed a weathered board to be used as a handrail on the entrance porch. RonStiebach, Ferndale, takes his shot at the Music Factory, maybe a dance or some pinball later. Permanntalked about some of the things that led to the decision to open a non-alcoholic nightclub. Pleasanton,Cal., where he lived before he moved to Whatcom County a year ago, was "really bad for drugs," he said. The street drug PCP â€” also used as an animal tranquilizer â€” was "all over the place." The memory of that kind of life style and the obvious need in Whatcom County for alternative recreation andentertainment facilities for young people just naturally suggested the idea of a place like the MusicFactory. On opening night, the clientele was mostly young and mostly local. However, , the - collegecommunity was away for the holidays and unaware of the new nightclub. The band was energetic and the dancers seemed to be enjoying themselves, as well as those gathered around the pinball machines,their faces lit up by the flashing lights. Most seemed genuinely grateful to have this new source ofentertainment. One person suggested that people liked the freedom to come and go as often as theychose, once they had paid the $2 admission fee. co E E CO o CO 00 CO c a. CO JD CO oo LL CO Q JZ .2?

He will be performing with a six member band of Caribbean background. The Hometown Band appears at Western for the second time in the last fourmonths.

Chumley entertains masses by BART POTTER Hisself-proclaimed degree, "magna cum laude from the school of hard knocks," will lead nowhereacademically, but Reverend Chumley has learned well a more important art: entertaining people. TheReverend, self-ordained minister and leader of the vaudeville troupe Alligator Revue, spoke with the Frontafter the third of his strait-jacket escape acts in Red Square Friday. His down-to-earth manner belies thefrenzy of his performance, but even when talking quietly it is unclear if he has yet' stopped acting.Chumley bears a strong resemblance to another performer, calling himself the Flaming Zucchini, who hitWestern in years past. Aren't they one and the same? The Reverend claims, with just a touch of twinklein his eye, that Zucchini is his half-brother who disappeared in a ball of flame in Eugene, Ore., two yearsago and hasn't been heard from since. The incident took place at the Eugene Renaissance Fair before"2,000 peyote-stoned hippies." "He was always making an ash of himself," Chumley said of his 'half-brother.' "You don't believe he did it? There were 2,000 witnesses. They were all stoned, though."Chumley, whose real name is Michael ("that's as much as you'll get out of me"), started his travelingshow six-and-a-half years ago, when as a "starving actor," he decided that circus-vaudeville would have amore universal appeal. Since then he has performed solo and with various troupes. He has worked withseveral members of the Alligator Revue for more than two years. The Reverend is presently working toperfect his tightrope and trapeze acts, while the Revue is rehearsing the Robot Operetta, featuring aseven-foot robot that Chumley said took years to complete. The troupe's major project, however is an"epic, two-hour swords and sorcery operetta" with a woman hero, set in the future when the sun is dyingand citizens have reverted to medieval ways. Chumley is a self-ordained minister of uncertain doctrine("I could call it neo-paganism, but I won't") and has performed two weddings. "For me to marry a couplethey must believe that the minister has the spiritual power to join them, and consummate the marriagethat night," Chumley said. "In both cases the marriage was consummated long before the ceremony."Whether in his capacity as performer or minister, Chumley said, he and his troupe are available for"weddings, funerals, parties, bar mitzvahs, divorces and hangings." Following each of his Fridayperformances, Chumley urged the assembled crowd to toss timidity away and the contents of theirpockets to him. Response was fair, but the smattering of coins collected will hardly pay the bills. For that reason, Chumley is seeking more paid bookings. He's had some success â€” performing at the SeattleCenter and with novelist Ken Kesey â€” but he would like to make the Alligator Revue a household word. "You can't make a living hither and yon, passing the hat," the Reverend said, "so we're getting moreorganized. To make it as a performer in the capitalistic world, you have to be famous. We're gettinginfamous." Your calculus class is pushing you over the edge? The Reverend Chumley shows students what to do after those men in white era's arrive.

"Why do they always change instructors on me," she muttered.Behind her, another student punched his friend on the shoulder. "Hey, we aren't going to be stuck with'old monotone'." Every quarter, hundreds of Western students walk into classes expecting to beeducated, entertained or bored by professors whose names were printed in the final class schedule. Many of these students will discover the professor they've waited three years for has suddenlydisappeared, that the professor in the schedule has changed into a 24-year-old graduate student or thatthe 8 a.m. class they'd planned to sleep through is being taught by the most exciting professor oncampus. This quarter 198 classes will be taught by instructors who were not scheduled to teach them.Ten classes that were to be taught by faculty members will be taught by staff members, which oftenmeans graduate students. Western is not trying to cheat students, department chairmen said. It isjust that scheduling in June cannot take into account problems that arise in August or October. Houseand car workshop offered For those who feel helpless when confronted by a leaky faucet or a stubbornautomobile, Whatcom Community College offers its FOCUS on House and Car Care workshop. Thenine-week workshop will teach simple home and car repair. Classes begin Tuesday, Jan. 11, from 7 to9:30 p.m., at 3133 Bennett Drive, Belling-ham. Persons interested in the two-credit class may registeruntil Jan. 18 at a WCC instructional center, or at the first meeting. The cost is $5. "The less we haveto change our schedule, the better our program is," said Louis Barrett, chairman of the physicsdepartment. "Unfortunately, we do not know who will be on the staff until sometime in June. By then it is too late to report changes to the registrar." Hiring and resignations account for most of the schedulechanges. There are other reasons, though. Occasionally, a professor will take an overload for aquarter. When this happens the department chairman may reduce his load another quarter. A teaching assistant or another professor will teach a class for him that quarter. "A professor took an overload one winter quarter. She taught an extra night class that was needed, but not scheduled. Because ofthat her spring quarter load was reduced," said R.W. Chaney, chairman of the mathematics department. FOR RENT HEATHER RIDGE APARTMENTS: New unfurnished Deluxe Apts. on south side walking distance from cam-put. Full appl. including washer/dryer.

They're also cheaper," said Pete Steffens,acting chairman of the journalism department. How can students avoid Tuesday morning surprises? Can teaching assistants and "uninspiring' professors be avoided? Students have several choices. They cantalk to the department chairmen or the professor scheduled to teach the class before the quarter starts. They can also check an updated schedule posted in the registration center at the beginning of each quarter. Security hunting for officer Western's Safety and Security Department is recruiting for a new campus police officer. According to the director, R. G. Peterson, the position opened following aninternal reorganization and reassignment of duties in the safety division of the department. Deadline for applications is January 17. Following submission of applications, individuals will be sent to theUniversity of Washington at department expense for various physical tests. Tests will include physical agility and coordination, circulatory recovery, body fat content, and physical strength. Petersonsaid the tests are evaluated according to the individual's body size and weight. "This way, a five footfemale has the same chance as a six foot, 250 pound male," Peterson said. Applicants passingthese tests will go before an oral board, the make-up of which has not been decided. Peterson said itwill probably consist of representatives from Whatcom County Sheriff's Department, Bellingham Police,and various agencies of the college. The oral board will send three finalists to Peterson to make the final choice. The person chosen will then be sent for a complete physical examination. If that person failsthis, one of the other two will be selected, until the position is filled. Recruiting bulletins have been sent to all community and four year colleges in Washington, as well as to local and Seattle publications.Western's Affirmative Action office has also sent bulletins to its outlets state-wide.

The Viks downed Northern Montana 104-89 and NorthwestChristian College 63-33. Western opened conference play last Monday with a 72-70 loss to OregonCollege of Education in Monmouth, Ore. The 104-point output against Northern Montana was the bestoffensive showing by a Western team since the 1974-75 season when the Vikings beat SouthernOregon State College 107-72. In holding Northwest Christian to 33 points, the Viks had their bestdefensive performance since the 1962-63 season when they squelched St. Martin's College 45-23.Against Central, the Vikings came within a whisker of beating a team many figure to fight it out, alongwith Eastern and Oregon Institute of Technology, for the Evergreen Conference title. Western led theWildcats 40-31 at halftime, but separate Central spurts of 13-0 and 10-2 in the second half brought downthe Viks. The Vikings shot well in the contest, hitting 28 of 56 field goal attempts for 50 per cent. MonteBirkle led Western with 25 on 11-22 from the field, and added five assists. Dan Burch has 15 plus sixassists and Greg Smith hit for 15 along with seven rebounds. Western trailed Eastern by only 37-33 athalftime, but a blistering Eagle fast break, triggered by sharp outlet passing, broke the game open in thesecond half. Smith, with 18 points and 12 rebounds, and Birkle, also with 18, led the Viking scorers.Randall was not displeased with his team's weekend showing, as the Viking showed strong reboundingand a maturity that was lacking in early season. "I figured we would have a pretty tough time at thebeginning with such a young team," he said. "But now we're over the hump and I look for a strong finish." The Viks, now 2-8 for the season, meet Eastern Oregon State College in Carver Gym Friday in their firsthome game since Dec. 1, after which 10 of Western's next 16 games will be at home. Saturday Westernwill travel to Tacoma to test University of Puget Sound, defending NCAA Division II national champions.Senders, Katzer lead JV's by EvCC Western's junior varsity defeated Everett Community College(ECC) 58-30 here Saturday night, bringing the squad to a 3-1 season record.

However, each team in the loop returns several lettermenwith the exception of Oregon Institute of Technology and the Big Blue, and each could unfold somesurprises. A brief run-down on each school: Western Washington State College Chuck Randall's returnas head coach following a one-year lay-off to recuperate from a heart attack may be the Vikings' bigroundball story of the year. With 6-6 forward Greg Smith the only returning starter from last year's 14-12team, it may be a rough, learning year for the Viks. Craig Ericksen and Velko Vitalich will lend somestability and in early Vik games transfers Dan Burch and Monte Birkle have contributed heavy offensivepunch. Freshmen Ron Strandin and Doug Creasey have seen much court time, but the youth may bemore a hope for the future than for a successful '76-77 campaign. Root for a .500 season to keepRandall's record of never having a losing season intact. Central Washington State College Centralreturns eight lettermen from a squad that went 23-7, and won the District I crown, and hope to go to theNAIA nationals for the eleventh time in thirteen years under Dean Nicholson. Talent abounds at theEllensburg school. 6-6 forward Dave Oliver, an All-EVCO choice returns as do three 6-6 forwards, PhilCline, Randy Sheriff and Les Wyatt. Two transfers, Alphonso Roberts, an all-conference performer atSeattle Central Community College, and Jim Ingram, from Bellevue Community College are expectedto contribute. Freshmen Scott Berrv. 6-4 forward: Gree. Ranee, 6-1 guard; Rod Wakefield, 6-6 center;Scott Walker, 6-5 forward are all fighting for spots on the Wildcat roster. Central looks tough, could be"Kansas City here we come" for the Dean and all those size 12 feet he controls. Eastern Oregon StateCollege " The Mountaineers had a dismal 6-19 last year and things can only brighten for second-yearcoach Pasco Arritola. Eastern returns three lettermen this year, Kevin Cahill and Wayne Randall, acouple of 6-4 forwards, and forward Chris Binder, who led the team in scoring last year. Three transfersare expected to help revive the basketball program in LaGrande. Two of them are from Central ArizenaCommunity College, 6-5 Bob Dean and 6-6 Mark Enright. The other is Chuck West, a 6-6 forward fromCentralia Community College. Four freshmen are vying for spots on the varsity roster, including all-staters Clint Catron and Mike Surplus. Bill Ray and Mark Wipf are also expected to challenge for playing time.Valkyries Mixed reactions to nickname by CAROLYN PRICE The name change of women's athleticteams frdm Vikettes to Valkyries last quarter, made for the purpose of giving the athletes a more distinct identity, prompted mixed reactions. A survey of women athletes taken late last quarter revealed mostthought it was time for the change, many were not sure what it meant, and a few favored the traditionalVikette nickname. In answer to the question, "What do you think of the new women's athletic nickname,Valkyries?" the comments were: "I think it's weird." "Vikettes means it's just a women's. This givesus our own identity." "The first time I heard it, I couldn't pronounce it. But I got to thinking about it and Iliked it. I agree that it (Vikettes] is a feminized word for Vikings." "I liked it after I found out what itmeant. It grows on you. It sounds more feminine." "I don't like it, because I don't know how to say it.Title IX is screwing up everything. I don't like changes." "I don't think it's going to work because peoplemight think it's an outside team." "My high school nickname was Valkyries so that's why I knew what-itwas. They (Vikings and Vikettes) shouldn't be separate â€” they should be intermingled." "It would bebetter if everyone knew what it meant â€” it's hard to pronounce. I think it's a good change. After I thought about it, I knew it must be something female, but didn't know when I.first heard it." "I like the way itsounds 100 times better than Vikettes. It's different and I like that because we've got our own name now." "I'm very sad, it's breaking tradition." "Every time I read it I think it's a misspelled word." Three maleathletes also volunteered their comments: "I didn't know what the heck it was. Vikettes seems stupid tome. This makes the girls sound better. I think they should have their own identity." "I didn't pay anyattention to it." "I like Vikettes better. They should keep the name, like Cougar-Coiigarettes." (The termVikettes first appeared in th Front in March 1972 in a caption under a picture of a Western cheerleader at a men's basketball game.) Former Vik stars inducted in Hall Joe Moses and Steve Richardson, twostandout athletes from Western's sporting past, will be inducted into the Western Washington StateCollege Athletic Hall of Fame January 23 as part of the Whatcom County Sportsman-of-the-Yearbanquet activities. The twosome will join 12 other members of the jock elite â€” Norm Bright, SamCarver, Norm Dahl, , Fred Emerson, Chuck Erickson, Norm Hash, Charles Lappenbusch, BillMcDonald, Bruce Randall, Boyd Staggs, Bob Tisdale and Bill Wright. Joe Moses was an all-leaguechoice for four years as a member of the Viking basketball team from 1937-1941. Named to the Tri-Normal all-star team as a freshman, he made the All- Washington Intercollegiate Conference squad thenext three seasons after the school switched league affiliations. The 5-5 guard was team captain forthree years, and led the hoopers in assists each of those campaigns. Steve Richardson is the onlyplayer in the history of the Evergreen Conference to earn all-star honors on both offense and defense forthree straight years. The halfback was named to the first-team NAIA All-Am-erican squad in 1966, onthe basis of his 732 rushing yards, including a 217-yard four-touchdown outburst in one game. A four-year letterman, Richardson was also an All-EVCO outfielder in baseball, lettering three years in thatsport. In 1967, he was named WWSC Athlete-of-the-Year, and is only one of two football players tohave his jersey (no. 21) retired. Both men will receive a plaque and a lifetime pass to all Westernsporting events. The selection committee was made up on current Western athletic personnel and localmedia representatives. Eastern Washington State College The Eagles went undefeated last year inleague play and 21-4 for the season. Last year's EVCO Coach-of-the-Year, Jerry Krause, has twostandouts from last year's squad in All-EVCO, All-District, All-Northwest and third team Ail- AmericanRon Cox, a 6-6 center who averaged 20 points and 12 boards a game, and Ed Waters, a 6-1 guard wholed the loop in assists. Three other lettermen return from last year: Paul Hungenberg and Ray Palmer, 6-4 forwards, and guard Terry Pepple. Transfers Mike Heath, 6-5 forward; Eugene Glenn, 6-5 forward; andTim Smith, 5-11 guard should join last year's junior varsity standouts Jeff Miller and Tom Rife to securethe Eagles in the depth department. Freshmen Martin Harpole, Bob Gatlin, Terry Reed and Vic Whiteare being touted to contribute to Eastern's attempt for the District I title and an NAIA berth which eludedthem last year. This could be the Eagles' year, and if revenge motives could be translated into points,Eastern will beat all comers and Central for the beans.

Bring your Bible and a friend. by DAVE MILTENBERGER Well, it's all history. The Anti-Climactic Bowl hasbeen played and once again the American viewing public has gathered in eager anticipation only to betreated to a football game that would not be uncommon in a Sunday afternoon flag contest between OurLady of Perpetual Dilemma's and a collection of the First Avenue Winos. I looked forward to thecontest. All the pre-game reporting from the Rose Bowl city and the bets and the Super Bowl parodies on channel 5 and whether George Atkinson is a bad mother, and whether Carl Eller will have a hemorrhoidattack and who's got the cool uni's and all the just swell half-time activities and Vicki Carr belting out"America the Beautiful" and gee, my spine shivers just to think about it. But, invariably, the game turnsout to be a big letdown and one side generally does a good rip-tear job on the other. The only game thatsticks out as exciting was the Colts-Cowboys skirmish a few years back which saw Jim O'Brien boot afield goal with a few seconds remaining to give the Colts a 16-13 victory. The week before the "SuperBowl" seems to be one of the few times that the outcome of the game is seriously up in the air. SportsIllustrated has a field day with interviews, and all your buddies are either against your team, or they don'tlose much sleep over the outcome. Seems the concept of the game, a Mardi Gras, World Cup, Le Mans and "Raid on Entebbe" all rolled into one is what makes the game as popular as it is, with the contestitself somewhat tarnished as a result. What the hell. It's a good time if nothing else can be said about it.Check out those dudes in Clancy's in Oakland and the hotel lobby on the Registry hotel in Minnesota.Chuggin' the brew was a pretty big part of their Super Sunday. Some of those Oakland fans may behitting the Alka-Seltzer on Monday morning but they know that everyone had to "play with pain" to seethose Raiders fox-trot through the Vikings. Super Bowl XI has drawn to a close, much like a final curtainon a several act play. The game had its moments, but I'll take the AFC and NFC championship games ot a Western come-from behind heart stopper any day.

However, if you pass it round, it will not be "robbing" anybody. I left San Francisco three weeks ago today, came here by land 170 miles, and have been having surveys made between this place and Stockton (40 miles from here) to determine the best route. I hope to commence work here in the course of a month or two and if so shall be up here most of the time next year. Some parties here want me to make a reconnaissance for a Railway from here to the extreme S. E. corner of California, Fort Yuma, about 700 miles, but I am afraid I can't get away to do it without losing my position here, though I should like it very much indeed, [Page 2] as it runs down through a wild Spanish and Indian country, among the Apaches, who have become a bugbear among all who have gone down to Arizona and that section of the country. If they can wait a month or two, I may be able to get away as I don’t think it would take me over two or three months to do all they want and to see as much of the country and of the Noble savages as I want. I wrote from San Francisco telling I found Charly very well indeed and everyone glad to see me back again, my employers very cordial, and everything pleasant, except the probability of not being able to get money from them very easily. That, however, will not worry me if I can keep drawing enough to get along with. In fact, I am quite "renovated," am in good health and spirits, and don't care about anything that happens to be going wrong enough to m'en faire du mauvais sang. I hope to get my surveys here completed so as to get down to San Francisco in time to put something in Charly's stocking on Christmas Eve, and if not, then at all events for New Year's Day. I am very thankful that Mark writes in such good spirits. He is quite a new man. [Page 3] This is not by any means a lively town at present, or indeed at any time but during the few months of the session of the Legislature. Stockton is just about as dull but I am stopping at little roadside houses most of the time and have enough to do during the day to make me ready to go to bed pretty early and so it does not make much difference to me where I am. My principal assistant, Frank Hinckley, the one I left in charge during my absence on my flying trip to see you, is with me most of the time and by dividing our spare time together kill it more easily. He is a nice young fellow and (this is for Lucy) [over?] six feet high and with a splendid heavy dark moustache, the regular "Moustache triste" that she admired so much in the picture at the Crystal Palace. I have not seen her mare since my return as I am using my other team but hear that she and her colt are in fine order. If she (Lucy) were only here to ride her, there is splendid mud from a few inches to a few feet deep everywhere, the finest "falling" she could possibly get. Isn’t it too bad. My meerschaum continues to color, but not in as regular a manner as I could desire; it may, however, sober down with age. I commenced years ago to lose my hair; I had the first gray ones pulled out and held up exultantly to my horrified gaze some time since, [Page 4] but never until yesterday have I known myself to be spoken of seriously as "the old man," which was the descriptive term applied to me by a landlord speaking to one of my assistants (a mere boy of twenty-seven or eight). We must all come to it, but he might have spared my feelings and kept it from me a little longer. Enclosed is a scrap from a newspaper, sent me by Daniel Brez, attempting to be descriptive of our passage in the Arago. The fellow who wrote it was down in his berth most of the time and knows nothing about it, but what he says is true enough, as far as it goes. I wish you all a very happy New Year and the young folks a merry Christmas, including Charlotte, in the latter not so much on account of the Year of her Birth as the Day thereof. My best love to you all, Pa, Ma, Lucy, Mat, Charlotte, Charles, and all the little ones. God bless you. M. L. Stangroom I had a letter, forwarded to me from New York, which missed me there, begging me to go to Washington to hear a personal explanation. I am glad I did not get it, though I don’t think I would have gone. It is much better as it is.

Hilarious Comedy Premiere Coming "Dear Ruth", a hilarious two act comedy, opens in the blue room of Edens haU Thursday, November 21. As WWC's first dramatic performance of the year, "Dear Ruth" stars an all-student cast under the direction of Victor H. Hoppe. Rehearsals have been long and hard with a bit of humor all t h e time. Working under a terrific time handicap, Mr. Hoppe has selected an outstanding cast. Helping shape a smooth performance are: student director, Plans For Big Formal Made Vivian Franklin; technical director, Carl Lindell; and script artist, Phyllis Threlkeld. Members of the cast are: Dora, the maid, Vivian Franklin; Mrs. Edith Wilkins, the m o t h e r , Suda Jean Owen; M i r i a m Wilkins, adolescent d a u g h t e r , Clarena Fenton; Judge Henry Wilkins, the father, Edwin Cooper; Ruth Wilkins, charming oldest daughter, Irene Chetwood; Lt. William Seawright, Ruth's military suitor, Mike Smith; Albert Rummer, Duth's fiance, Glenn Burgess; Martha Seawright, the Lt.'s sister, Martha Moriaghan; Sgt. Chuck Vincent, the Lt.'s friend, John Peterson; Harold Klobbermeyer, a sailor, Carl Lindell. This comedy, written by Norman Kasner and first produced in New York, December 13, 1944, was a tremendous hit. It has just been released for amateur use. With an able director and a sparkling cast, WWC's performance of "Dear Ruth" promises to be equally successful. Complete runing time for the play will be November 21, 22 and 23. Under the general chairmanship of Bob Moblo, plans are being f o r m u l a t e d for the Norseman's Dance to be held November 23. Ticket sales will be limited to 200 because of insufficient space. They may be purchased in the main hall for a dollar a couple. An autumn theme will be carried out by the decoration committee: Clark Brown, Pat Mc- Evoy and Jim Roberts.

Tory's Wolw by halldor karason It seems to be a truth that in, reporting the activities of any organization more publicity is given to events which show lack of cooperation than to events which give evidence of cooperation. That is true of the United Nations Organization. The particular agency of the UN which is being criticized is the Security Council, and, specifically, the veto power of the permanent members: Ch m a » F r5n c e ? Russia, Great Britain, and the United States. The chairman of the United States delegation to the San Francisco Conference, Edward R. Stettinius, Jr., then Secretary of State, in his report to the President, said: ". . . The Security Council is not the enforcement agency of a world state, since world opinion will not accept the surrenda-of sovereignty which the establishment of a world state would demand. The Security Council, therefore, depends upon the Sovereign member states for the weapons both of persuasion and of force through which it will attempt to keep the peace. . . . The voting procedure of the Security Council is expressive of the actualities of the possession and exercise of power in the modem world. The five principal military powers of our time are made permanent members of the council. ..Furthermore, in order that their possession of power and their use of power may be made to serve the purpose of peace, it is provided that they shall exercise their power only in agreement with each other and not in disagreement." CRITICISM JUSTIFIED Mr. Stettinius, it is evident, approved of the veto power. He considered it desirable that the five major powers should be in complete accord on all decisions which affect the peace of the world. However, the question has arisen as to what affects the peace of the world and what does not. That appears to be the basis for the present dispute over the veto power. Russia has used the veto power nine times. France has used it once. The other three powers have not used their right to veto. This does not pre-suppose that they will never use their veto power. It suggests only that they have not yet found it advantageous to do so. The use of the veto power by Russia has been sharply criticised, and no doubt much of that criticism is justified One of the latest vetoes by Russia was the veto of the applications for membership in the UN submitted by Ireland, Portugal, Trans Jordan, Albania, and Outer Mongolia. " / . Membership in the United Nations is open to all peace-loving stales which accept the obligations contained in the present Charier and., in the judgment of the organization, are able and willing to carry out those obligations. " 2 . The admission of any such stale to membership in the United Nations will be affected by a decision of the General Assembly upon the recommendation of the Security Council. It would seem that those two provisions conflict as long as the power of veto on such matters remains with one of the five permanent members of the Security Council. That seems to be, in effect, what has happened in the case of Russia's veto of the membership application. SEVEN OF ELEVEN It must be made clear that all decisions, of the Security Council are not subject to the veto power. Only those decisions which are not "procedural" can be vetoed. Procedural decisions are made by an affirmative vote of at least seven of the eleven members. Unfortunately, however, the question of what is procedural has not been adequately defined. In the Charter it is stated: "The Security Council shall adopt its own rules of procedure . . ." That seems to leave it up to the Security Council to define "procedural matters". The United States is not attempting to get the Security Council members to arrive'at such a definition. PERMANENT PEACE « Permanent world peace cannot be achieved without compromise and understanding. The UN, since it is the result of democratic action, is not as yet perfect in all its details. There will, inevitably, be many differences of opinion and much need for compromise before the UN fulfills the high purpose for which it was founded. We in America, with our history of democratic compromise and political opposition, should be among the first to understand that a.difference of opinion in the UN is not necessarily an indication that the UN cannot succeed and achieve its purpose. It is the democratic way to discuss controversies openly and to seek a solution which will be in the best interest of alL There is no other logical way to international understanding and cooperation. There is no other way to world peace.

New Radio Program Promotes Public Interest In College Taking to the air-waves, the radio speech class, directed by Miss Alma Madden is presenting the program "College News in Review" each Thursday at 4:45 p. m. over KVOS local radio station. Designed to promote public interest in WWC, these programs consist mainly of school news, personality sketches and interviews. However, programs vary to meet special needs and events. An example is the play "Deadline for Living" w h i c h is ACappella Choir Debut Tuesday Music will highlight the assembly scheduled for November 12 to honor Armistice Day and American Education week. This will mark the first apearance of the a cappella choir which open the program with a group of selections. Numbers to be featured will be: Let There Be Music (an original musical setting by the director, Mr. Bernard Regier); An Eriskay Love Lilt (Robertson); and Holiday Song (Shumann). The choir's performance will be followed by two talks on education: "World Education in the Atomic Age" will be discussed by Joanne Plumb, and Jess Bailey will speak on "Education for Peace." Reading of the Honor Roll by Don Packard in recognition of WWC's war dead will conclude the program. Faculty members responsible for the assembly are: Dr. W. W. Haggard, presiding; Mr. Bernard Regier, music; Mr. Victor Hoppe and Miss Alma Madden, speeches. scheduled for broadcast November 14, in honor of Education Week. In the broadcasts an attempt has been made to follow the trend of the WWC Collegian. Features of the paper that interest students most are incorporated in the radio shows. The task of editing and presenting programs falls to the eight students who constitute the radio speech class. Because of the small class each student is insured a part in every broadcast. Two students act as arrangers and announcers each week while the remainder provide the body of the show. STUDENTS TALENTED Equipment for the broadcast, the studio and the technical production are provided by station KVOS. "The class is composed of talented people," declared Miss Madden. "Among the students are Hugh Vit-ter, who has appeared as vocalist with dance bands, and Carl Lindell, who arranged Special Service Shows while serving in the army. "We hope to stimulate an interest in our program among the students, as well as the general public," Miss Madden continued, "and I hope they will tune in "College News in Review' whenever possible." •Cut Courtesy Bellingham Herald Kipling once remarked "east is east and west is west but ne'er the twain shall meet" but nobody has ever mentioned the possibilities of north and south getting together.

'cause she's really a wonderful combination of beauty and personality. V V EDENS HALL Most lively topic for conversation this week was the issue brought about by the Hospice Inn serenaders. The girls seem to think things have come to a sad state of affairs when the first sign of initiative and the first gesture of congeniality is nipped in the bud. It was a beautiful serenade, more conducive to pleasant dreams than disturbance of the peace, and was greatly appreciated by an enthusiastic audience. We have two new inmates this week: Pat Larson from Sedro- WooIIey, and Joanne Jude from Bellingham. Hap Wittier told me she went wading m Lake Whatcom last week-end. We did have nice weather, but I didn't think it was that good. Must have been some added attraction. V V YMCA Things are beginning to hum at the "Y" this month, with many activities being well underway. The Homecoming display, which is being handled by capable Carl Lindell, promises to be a good one, as Carl has put much time and effort into its formulation. A Homecoming skit is also being planned by entertainment chairman, Doug Roberson, and will star such celebrities as president Arnold Turner, San Fran-ciscos' gift to WWC. The A.S.M. basketball team, led by captain Bill Tulin, although not too impressive in the percentage column, has been playing good ball and "showing lots of fight. Much credit is due to Ed Black, Cliff Sharp, Milton Orphan, and Captain Tulin for their sterling play. Miles Standishes' birthday party, held in his room the other night and attended by many, was a howling success. For further information see Clark Brown. And by the way if any of you girls know who the handsome cashier at Bdens Hall is at lunch time, it is none other than A.S.M.'s Alf Courtney, from Sequim, Washington.

Of course, for some of us the work is never done—at least that's what Jack Francis says when he is questioned about his absence from the social circles of Hospice Inn the past few days. He has a 15,000 word theme to write! • The regular housemeeting was held Tuesday night. After the usual business meeting, an attempt was made to revive the old tradition of serenading the girls of Edens Hall, but someone evidently doesn't appreciate our singing. Oh. well, "cops is such nice people!" Frank Iroala shouldn't have asked for "Five Minutes More" because it made him late for the housemeeting. He looks so cute in a grass skirt—such a swing and sway! New members of the House of Hospice during the past two weeks are Dennis McGillivary, from Anacortes; Suart Petrie and Dick Wright from Seattle. FOREST INN V V Boy, here I am home at 250 North Forest (alias Forest Inn), after a hectic day of classes. If I had Shirley Van Moorhem's ability to fall instead of walk downstairs, I mightn't be so tired or maybe if I had Melba Leh-mann's ability to toot a horn I could toot myself into a ride home nights. I'd even be satisfied if I could cook like our wonderful housemother, Mrs. Sundquist, but I can't even boil water. Guess our house president, Ruby McCormick, is as tired as I am. I'd like to explore into her night life sometime. So, pardon me while I go catch a wink, (too bad it couldn't be a man.) V V DANIELS HALL Some people are inclined to believe that Seattle will someday join with Everett to form one city, but from the looks of Daniels Hall it will come clear to Bellingham. We have no less than ten Ballard boys living there besides a few stragglers from other parts of that fair city. Most of these boys will be used in our Homecoming skit as you can tell they are musically inclined by the cords in their neck. (It's a pun son.) We are still looking fox-one of these jokers that can sing HI-C. So far they all sing low-sy. Jerry Connell is back home after taking a turn for the nurse while in the hospital.

It makes Amber bitter and she is slowly but surely starving us two clowns to death. Speaking of Lindbloom, Lappy saw him chasing some girl down 14th street the other night and told him to save his' energy for the gridiron wars. V V SENIOR HALL November 3 is a date that will no doubt go down in the history of Senior Hall. It was our first open house. From 3 to 5 o'clock there was a constant stream of people coming and going. Tea, cake and cookies were served while the Misses Lois Kirig and Alice Attwood led tours showing the house to those who wished to see it. Perhaps the most exciting event of the week was the initiation of the freshmen last Wednesday. At 6 o'clock in the morning the cruel, brutal upperclassmen pounded into our room with the re-mark,." Get up, youse bums!" Then they told us that we had to be downstairs in 15 minutes fully dressed, and carried on from there. Couple United In Wedlock The marriage of Miss Hester Kent, daughter of Mrs.| T. B. Kent, to Mr. Arthur G. Dodds, son of Mrs. A. G. Dodds, of Phoenix, Arizona, took place October 11 at the home of the bride's mother in Seattle. Atendants of the couple were Lt. and Mrs. James F. Wright, of this city. The bride wore "a black dressmaker suit with black accessories and carried a single white orchid on a prayer book which had been given her by the groom. Mrs. Wright wore a geranium red suit with black accessories. For the wedding trip through Washington, south to the Grand Canyon, the bride donned a gold top coat. " • The couple will live in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, while the groom continues his m e d i c a l c o u r s e at Marquette university. He is a graduate of Baylor university, and participated in-all but two of the South Pacific campaigns. The bride, who formerly lived here, attended the local high school and Western Washington College. Several relatives and friends from Bellingham were guests at the wedding. Sophs Hold Party; Socles Plenty Loud Swell; best ever held; couldn't have been better; was the opinion of members of the sophomore class who attended the scavenger hunt and party held Saturday . evening in the lounge. ' The scavenger hunt was the feature of the evening with the winning team receiving a box of chocolates. Articles collected by the winning team ranged from a banana, cookie cutter and used tomato can, to a corn stalk. The rules set a time limit of one hour and prohibited the use of autos. Refreshments, consisting of cocoa, coffee and doughnuts, were served in the lounge following the hunt. The remainder of the evening was spent dancing, with special tags, novelty, individual, and the sock dance headlining the evening's entertainment. The prize for the couple with the loudest socks was awarded to Pat Temperley and Glen Bergess, "the socks actually spoke for themselves." stated the prize awarder, Ted Gary. Two college pennants were the prizes ---------- WWCollegian - 1946 November 8 - Page 3 ---------- ^P^^^^^^^SS|lP^l^^^^SiSill, Friday, November 8; 1 9^ \ryestern W^hingtpn Gd y*i • ••••^^s. : .'h-. .^.%iS;i. St. Martin's Next Grid Classic ROUGH PLAY . . . Badly crippled; a game, but reserve shy Viking eleven crossed the Cascades again, only to come back bumped up some more. Rather harshly used were the Norsemen who went over to play football under college rules . . .Wound up playing under profession rules . . . plus some Marquis of Queens-bury additions. • • HIGHLIGHTS . . . Wally Miller, in the thick of things, had a clipping penalty against him. Later on game officials missed the retaliation effort of a North Idaho player against Wally . . . Sent to the showers for unnecessary roughness was Del Peterson. Del must have sensed the real spirit of the game . . . Missing the try for point, and then being jumped squarely upon by opposing linesmen was the rare treat in store for Byron Griibb . . . Inci-dently Lappy galloped. out upon the greensward twice in more than mild protest. • Which still makes just two times he's done that sort of thing during his coaching career . . . A good time was had by all, and. brotherly love was conspicuous by its absence in this-tussle, under Idaho skies . . . The Viks, short of man power, were _ hardly prepared for the bruising, more than rough tussle they Were forced to play. . * * ' ' • STANDOUTS . . . Outstanding indeed, has been the play of our blue and white tackles. Not to be overlooked are the steady, sterling performances of Kerr, Dodge, Hammer, Grubb, and Del Peterson at the guard positions.. Hammer, by the way, was another Viking not present at the Lewiston game. Lappy, in a -measure, was pleased over certain elements of the Viking's offense. Moving with machine like precision, they reached the ten yard line several times, but lacked the final punch to put it over. Pinal word from Coach Lappenbusch was that outstanding for North Idaho, were two tall ends who could really snare those passes. * * QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS . . . Why did the North Idaho boys miss their signals so often? The North Idaho squad seemingly is composed of two teams, one purely defensive, and the other wholly offensive. The defensive eleven never could quite get its signals straight. Has anyone seen Nick Zender around? So far this year the hill top school seems to be without a Zender. * * INTRAMURAL MURALS . . . Basketball as played in the intramural league was given a severe shakeup, when three top teams lost three star players to Coach McDonald of the varsity. Transferring to the Viking regulars are Kink of the Southenders; Clemens of Daniels, and Bakers of the Unknowns. The old intramural spirit is back again. Listen to what these rival members of the intramural bowling teams have to say of their teams pennant chances. Jay Lapp, of Lapp's Clip Joint: "Competition is rough, nevertheless I believe we have a good chance to finish on top." George Jurgens, of Bushnell's: "Give us five more good men, and we're in. It's a good race as far as the rest of the league is concerned." Jack Francis, of Hospice A, current leaders: "We're a cinch to win. It's a one team race." Don Brown, of Hospice B: "The league is rather well balanced. We won't finish last." Warren Beecroft, of the Collegians: "The rest of the teams haven't a chance. Just wait until the Collegians get to rolling." End of quotes. These rather caustic remarks ought to stir up a hornet's nest among our intramural bowling teams. * * THIS 'N THAT . . . Coach Lappenbusch took time out Monday eve, for a talk at Nooksack Valley high school. Viking Frank Gayda has a brother, Eddie by name, who is making history with the Washington State Cougars. He has cinched a starting post with the basketball team. Last week saw the all important Pacific Lutheran and Central Washington tussle end in a 27 to 20 win for Ellensburg, keeping it the only undefeated, untied Winco team. Booming along in second place came the Eastern Washington Savage. Whitworth was annihiliated 45 to 0, by them. One tie is the only blotch on the Eastern record. Tomorrow should see a hectic game with the Central-Eastern clash at Ellensburg. This one should decide the Winco league championship. Our Vikings are travelling by bus to Olympia, where a tangle with St. _, Martin's is on the ticket. This is a Viking chance to tear themselves away from a cellar berth. Thirty-seven men will go. Social committee is taking care of plans for an extra bus or so, for rooters who may want to accompany the team. That's all for this week. FOOTBALL PREDICTIONS The predictions of last week were as usual Way off the beam but I will venture to say that it was not the second guessers fault on the whole. The Vikings lost to a team by three touchdowns, but I don't believe the opposition was three touchdownz better than our boys. We pushed Idaho all over the field until our boys tired in that Idaho air and bogged down. They had a defensive team and another that they used for the offense, therefore having a fresh team on the field all the time, while Lappy just didn't have enough experienced reserves. Perhaps if we played them over here where our first string could play a full 60 minutes of ball, the score would have been diffeernt, but who knows. Such is football and the reason why coaches gel gray. Last week three people picked Idaho to win: Widge Black and Bill Miller coming the closest on the score, picking Idaho by two touchdowns and 19-0, respectively. Here We go again, so keep your fingers crossed and. hope the Blue and While's luck will take a change for the best tonight and Monday. LARRY HOLCOMB .".\ Popular Lynden athlete, before his college days: "What is this—the battle for the cellar? I'd say it is about time the Viks won a game or two. Maybe these two." DR. KEITH A. MURRAY . . . popular historian around this den of higher knowledge: "They say we are going to win one this year, perhaps one of these it is." GERRY WOODWARD . . . who hails from the home of St. Martins, and buys the poorer class cokes when they are thirsty: "Well, we will certainly beat St. Martins. We'll beat Whitworth, too, if we get just a little oomph." BOB SHUETTE . . . former Red Raider now enrolled here: "I believe St. Martins will win this one 13-6 and we should beat Whitworth." DEAN AMDAL . . . former Ballard football player: "The way the Vikings have been playing it is anyones game and the Whitworth game depends on what we have left after the St. Martins engagement." I n closing let's take a shot at the score in the countries most important game tomorrow: Notre Dame 20, Army 14. THE PASTIME BELLINGHAM'S MOST SPLENDIDLY APPOINTED CAFE JOE PAGLIA . .

Season's Big Game Army vs. Notre Dame Both Notre Dame and Army's unblemished records will be at stake tomorrow afternoon' when these two football powers square off in the 33rd game of their classic series at New York's Yankee Stadium. Army, triumphant in 21 consecutive games, has been installed as slight favorites over the Irish, but it was expected to be an even up contest by kickoff time at Yankee Stadium. The Irish have been pointing to this one since the opening of the season and will go all out to hand the Cadets their first loss in three years. Johnny Lujack, whose passing contributed to Notre Dame's 26-0 victory in 1943, will once again be at the helm of the Irish after a lapse of three years. The winner of this football classic may go a long way towards deciding the mythical national f o o t b a ll champs. —Cut Courtesy Bellingham Herald Ronald Dodge hails from Forks, Washington, and is a one year let-terman in football.

Many students are not aware that the voluntary system: of attendance is a trial which is not working too satisfactorily. Striving toward a more democratic system, Dr. W. W. Haggard intro-, duced the voluntary plan for the first time this quarter. The faculty was sure that if attendance were left to the student's initiative, the auditorium would be just as crowded. But some of the students have failed the faith placed in them. In trying to solve reasons for poor attendance, many excuses have been used, but none strong enough to compensate the loss derived from missing one of these fine programs. The auditorium is close and very handy; the hour is not near enough lunch time so that the hunger, pangs are too great, and the library is closed so there is no study space available. The major reason presented which would be reasonable is that the assembly programs are not given enough publicity before hand. Therefore the Collegian will attempt to outline each assembly and give as much advanced information as possible to explain the program. VOLUNTARY OR COMPULSORY Summing up the situation, it is of interest to every student, to the school and to the participants in the assemblies that attendance is tops. Two excellent reasons for this are: first, the educational advantages offered in each assembly, and second, the blunt fact that a continually poor -attendance will replace the voluntary method with the former method of compulsory attendance.

Call 2961. tends to create a more profitable, as well as enjoyable, school experience. In order to remedy a situation of this nature peitiaps it is wise to first determine the cause. WWC has experienced a re-birth with the current year. After the lean war years, enrollment has swelled to pre-war figures, and the school is passing through an awkward period of ado-lesehce, during which confusion reigns. VETERANS AS STUDENTS Veterans accustomed to hectic war years undoubtedly find it difficult to complete the transformation from military life to a scholastic life. Since a large portion of the WWC student body consists of veterans this has a great influence on school attitudes. Numerous criticism have, been made condeming the present school spirit, but few methods of alleviating existing conditions have been for.-, warded. The most often voiced remedy is the casual statement, "give us time and it'll come around." The simple truth is that fundamentally enthusiasm and loyalty stem from the individual, and not the football team, yell leaders or student body officers. School spirit, like a chain, is as strong as its weakest link. Unless each student does everything he incapable of to promote interest, the fine spirit that signifies a united student body '.falls apart. It is all too easy to shrug off responsibility and then accuse others when events and programs fall flat. We're never too old to learn, so any new ideas will be as welcome as a valid sugar coupon. It's up to you! As you make it you will have it. GREAT MEN AND HIEROGLYPHICS Don't feel bad if friends tell of handwriting being illegible. Some of Shakespeare's work never has been definitely deciphered. Several of Hawthorne's ..manuscripts remain unpublished today because no one has been able to read them. And Napoleon's letters were almost in a class by themselves, some of them being mistaken for maps of battlefields. Who Hastily Cried 'Wolf? Dear Editors: A group of the residents of Edens Hall wish to register a strong protest against the calling of the police during the serenade of Edens Hall on the night of Tuesday, November 5. The charge was made that the boys, residents of Hospice Inn, were singing unfit songs and were creating a disturbance. This group was among those list-" ening and could detect no spirit of disorderliness nor any songs that might be classified as "unfit". There is a great deal said and written about school spirit and its . lack around Western Washington College. To us. this serenade indicated a spirit of friendliness and comradeship that has been sadly lacking around this school during PPPPP

There are, unfortunately, 168 hours in a week and at present Irequire 169 to accomplish the tasks set before me. I just plain do not have the time to research andwrite. So, dear, gentle, and ex- reader, my anger and verbosity are chained to the meets and bounds ofa classroom, my wit and savage charm are spent in correcting papers. Do not weep with such passion,nor dress yourself in sack cloth, I will try to be back either this summer or next fall (if and only if I don't flunk out). And now, debouching on my hegira, I salute you. A rivederci, Western. Dennis O. Stuhaug ENROLLMENT Drop-out not unusual Enrollment for spring quarter at Western is listed at 2,692students in attendance. This figure indicates that 91% of fall quarter's enrollment has remained the entire school year. According to Donald Ferris, Registrar, this 9% drop-out is not unusual. Pre-registrationfor summer sessions, for those now enrolled at Western, will be May 8-12. Final registration willbe completed by appointment from June 5-8. FRANK D'ANDREA To direct in Alaska Dr. FrankD'Andrea, Head of the Music Department, will direct the University of Alaska's presentation of Haydn's"Creation," April 23. This presentation is being prepared by Glenn Bergh, graduate of Western and, atpresent, head of the Department of Music at the University of Alaska. Bergh will sing the role of Uriel,while his wife, Roxie, will sing the part of Gabriel. Bernard Regier, from Western's Music Department, will be featured as bass soloist in the roles of Raphael and Adam in this oratorio. Harpsichordist here Afestival of music is being presented by Western's Music Department during the last week of April.Harold Chaney, a harpsichordist, will ibe featured in the College Auditorium Wednesday, April 26, at8:15 p.m. Mr. Chaney is from the School of Music at the University of Oregon. With the assistance ofthe College Chamber Orchestra, the recital will consist of works by Purcell, Vivaldi, Bach, Handel,Scarlatti, and Albeniz. On Friday, April 28, at 8:15 p.m. the College-Civic Orchestra conducted by Dr.Frank D'Andrea will present its spring concert. Student soloists will be Bobby Brown, bass; BarryChamberlain, pianist; and David Sevenbergen, flutist. Pianist Dale Reubart, of Western's MusicDepartment, will offer a recital of music by Bach, Beethoven, Brahms, Schoenberg, and Ravel onSunday, April 30, at 8:15 p.m. Mr. Chaney, who has gained recognition through his many recitals and broadcasts over the country, exhibits ti characteristic flair for early keyboard music. According to onecritic, "his playing is marked by a deep sincerity and musical understanding." Another reviewer hascommented, 'The unusual rewards in Chaney's playing, however, came from the fact that he not only has this exact brilliance, but, somehow, added to the 18th Century reserve of physical sound apassionate declaration of feeling about the music." From the vast treasures of early music, Chaney haschosen a program both representative in scope and highly appealing to a wide range of listeners. Theprogram provides a rare opportunity to hear masterpieces of the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries on theoriginal instrument for whose delicate sonorities these works were written. To be heard are pieces ofHandel and Bach, works from the Spanish repertoire including Sonatas by Scarlatti, and selections nyCouperi and Purcell. Chaney will play his own harpsichord which, incidentally, is one of the largest inthe country iby virtue of its extraordinary tonal resources.

It's not heavy drama or a play with a great message . . . its just fun!" says director Dianne Nygaard. Dianne, a perfectionist in her own right, has participated inseveral college productions, but this is her first attempt at directing. She enjoys children's plays"because you can be hammy and play it to the hilt. You can play it big and broad right out to theaudience." Dianne feels that the play is progressing very well and that the cast has come a long waysince the first rehearsals were held at the beginning of the quarter. Except for a few members of thecast, none of the students have had previous experience at the college level in dramatics. However,they have grown into the spirit of the play and have learned many of the basic techniques of the theatre.Carolyn Waugh, assistant director, believes that all of the cast members are real troupers. They havegiven up evenings and week ends for three weeks to attend practices. Ilene King and Lorri Booth Playhas a moral "Rumpelstiltskin" is about a little elf man who believes he can control the minds of men if he has a king's son to put in his pot of magic brew. He hears about a miller's daughter who has beenpromised the marriage of the king's son if she can spin a room full of straw into gold thread.Rumpelstiltskin tells her that he will spin the straw if ishe promises to give him her first child after shebecomes queen. She agrees but later convince him not to take her child if she can guess his name.Because the little man feels sure that she can never do this, he is completely destroyed when shedoes finally say his name. "It does have a moral as all good fairy tales do," says Dianne, "and that isthat you can't make an end to man by sending him troubleâ€” he can only learn from it." The sets will be highly stylized with such things as pink, purple and blue rocks in the garden to create an unrealistic and fanciful atmosphere. All of the costumes are being designed especially for the play by Gary Sirguy,an art major. Appearing in the production will be Ilene King, as Rumpelstiltskin; Lorri Boothe, MotherHulda; Sandra Irvin, miller's daughter; Sue Weidman, miller's wife; Frank Gonzales, miller; GaryBeeman, Gothal; Douglas McCoy, Ingert; Richard Melarvie, King; Joel Woodman, King's son; andJacqueline Hanes, Karen. The gt;play will be presented at 3:30 this afternoon and at 2 p.m.tomorrow, in the College Auditorium. Admission is 25c for children and 50c for adults. MUN Cubawalks out by Carolyn Newton Climaxing the 11th session of the MUN in Eugene, at the U. of Oregon,was the Saturday session of the General Assembly. As resolutions which were passed by the variouscommittees during committee meetings on Thursday and Friday were reconsidered in the GeneralAssembly, various delegates took advantage oi.' their country's policies to bang on tables, clap wildly,or conspicuously walk out. The brief appearance of Castro to the afternoon session of the GeneralAssembly was uenxpected, but when the Cuban delegation received a communique from theirgovernment telling them of the "U. S." bombings over Havana, it was no surprise that the Cubandelegation directed condemning remarks toward the U. S. and then walked out claiming that the UNwas being made a mockery of. Also walking out during the Assembly were Portugal and Brazil, whenPortugal's actions in Mozambique and Angola were censured and the Union of South Africa, when herpolicy of Apartheid was censured. In the first plenary session of the MUN, the assembly of almost 1000delegates representing 81 schools and 87 countries was addressed by the Pres. of the 15th session ofthe UN, President F. Boland, Senator Wayne Morse, Oregon Governor Mark Hatfield, Chancellor of theState Board of Higher Education John Richards, Acting University President W. Jones, and ASUOPresident Steve Schell. A reflection of world situation Boland, though he stressed the value of the UN intoday's world in his address, stated that "the sad fact is that the situation in the UN Assembly is merelya reflection of the situation in the world. Because the Assembly of the UN mirrors the world as it is." Itwas his opinion that "we need wider vision, a broader sense of community, a new intellectual horizon,the dawn of a truly international patriotism, in keeping with the common destiny and the commonjeopardy of mankind in this nuclear age." The validity of Boland's statement became apparent to thedelegates by The end of the conference. After attending many meetings where much caucusing wasneeded to pass any resolutions, the numerous snags in the wheel of a democracy became quiteapparent. ART SYMPOSIUM No "Northwest School" A symposium on contemporary Northwest painting was presented on April 13 as a part of the A L Series. Held in the College Auditorium, thesymposium pointed out the changes in art, with emphasis on the past five years. Three guest speakersoutlined the general trend of art in the North- Avest. They were: Ian McNairn, UBC Art Museum; Dr.Francis Newton, Portland Art Museum; and Mr. Gervais Reed of the Henry Gallery. A c o m b i n a t io n of well-planned speeches and appropriate slides of paintings increased the average person'sunderstanding of Northwest art. In the past the Pacific Northwest has been primarily recognized for itslandscapes and realistic sketches. But in the last few years an international or universal type of art has become dominant everywhere, in-, eluding the Northwest. One can no longer term a painting as being of the "Northwest school," as it is now non-existent. April 21, 1961 WESTERN WASHINGTONCOLLEGIAN Page 3 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1961 April 21 - Page 4 ---------- Library Opened by program Sunday Thirty-two faculty members were honored last Sunday at theopening program of Western's observance oi National Library Week. Those honored were "people inprint," faculty authors 'whose works were published in 1960-61. The session was held in the VikingUnion Main Lounge from 2-5 p.m., where the National Library Week theme "For a Richer, Fuller Life â€”Wake Up And Read" was borne out by the reading of personal selections by guest speakers and a shortaddress on the theme by Dr. James Jarrett, College President. The selections presentedrepresented quite diverse interests, ranging from a child's story, Curious George, by H. A. Rey, readby Ramona Hopping, a WWC senior, to a case history from Washington State law, presented byJudge Hobart Dawson. Excerpts from two autobiographies were also included. Dr. Sene Carlile readfrom I Walked With Heroes, Carlos Romulo's autobiography; and Mrs. A. R. Walker, Chairman of theBellingham Public Library Board from 1947-1961, read selections from The Intimate Portrait of Toscanini. Selections from The Rebel by Camus were read by Dr. Katherine Carroll, and Teddy, by J. D.Sallinger, was presented by Joel Woodman, WWC sophomore. Mr. William H. O. Scott moderated theprogram, which was co-sponsored by the Bellingham Public Library, Whatcom County Rural Library, and the Campus National Library Week Committee. Dr. Jarrett in his address pointed out that Americansas a whole are not a very "bookish" people, who find many reasons tor their intellectual abstinence.Expressing a personal sense of deprivation at not having read all the good literature available, heposed the problem as, "How can readers unite for an onslaught on non-readers â€” whom we (readers)feel are missing so much?" Faculty members honored at the program and following tea were: MissLeona M. Sundquist; Dr. M. J. Mitchell; Dr. M. A. Allan; Dr. Katherine Carroll; Dr. D. McDonald; Mrs.Mary Worthylake; Dr. E. R. Clapp; Mr. Syndey Mendel; Dr. R. L. Mona-han; Dr. R. A. Christman; Dr.Keith A. Murray; Dr. Carl M. Shuler; Dr. C. M. Rice; Mrs. Mariam Mathes; Dr. P. R. Penland; Dr. S.

Brewster BOOKS They are human by Karen Bainter "WakeUp and Read â€” for a Richer, Fuller Life." Today's world is so cluttered with slogans that the averageperson doesn't think of the meaning of the often-appearing words. This is National Library Week. (In factit is almost over with.) The printed page is the historian of ideas. The library, a building block of the future â€” a place to study, a place to learn, a supplement to already partially acquired knowledge, a basepoint for intellectual pursuit. -Even if the only knowledge you obtain from the library is what youacquire by reading assigned texts while you are engrossed in the occupation of seeing who is there, you still obtain some benefits. There is always time Students, with their arms bowed down with heavyrequired reading, feebly moan that they have no time tor "extra-curricular" reading. But there is alwaystime, if you want to make time. Everyone should wander through the stacks every once in a while andWESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN pick out interesting-looking books. Or else, read a book whichteachers have brought up in class that deals with a subject you feel ignorant about or that soundsinteresting to you. A book is like a human person. It has its exterior appearance, but you have to digdown inside to find its true worth, feelings, attitudes, and what it has to say. And just as there aremany different people, there are many different books. A diverse world such as ours requires a questfor knowledge and an understanding of ideas and attitudes, part of which must be gleaned by individualseeking through books. Our opportunity is provided for us if we wish to take advantage of it. Tomorrowwe will have a better library after the new addition is completed. Tomorrow we will have even moreopportunities to take advantage of in better facilities. But today we must "Wake Up and Read." DR.COLLIER Book review by Linda Kleve An arrow traveling from a book to a man's heart via the braindecorated many posters throughout the campus and acquainted the students with the observance ofNational Library Week. This symbol was further carried out by the slogan, "Wake up and read for aricher, fuller life." Sporting a distinct and enjoyable English accent, Mr. Alan Collier of the ArtDepartment started off the series of book talks and discussions last Monday afternoon in the GraduateReading Room. Mr. Collier's book talk was on "The Phenomenon of Man." The author of this highlychallenging book is Pierre Teilhard De Charden, whose complex name appears to fit the complexity ofthe book. However Collier treated his subject in an "intellectually exciting" manner. Mr. Collier isWestern's contribution from England. A painter and scholar, he has won laurels on campus forspeaking and is presently writing two books. In reviewing The Phenomenon of Man, Collier let his ownthoughts wander about the book anl illuminated these thoughts by reading applicable passages. Mr. Collier commented that he was first drawn to the book by enthusiastic English Reviews. Accelerating and frightful ideas De Charein, in his book, unites the material and physical world with April 21, 1961 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1961 April 21 - Page 5 ---------- the spiritual. This aspect adds to the richness and possibly uniqueness of the book. According to Collier, the ideas expressed are "accelerating" and "frightful." Accelerating in that he gives the universe atremendous sense of purpose, and fright-iul because of the immensity of vision and the giganticscale of life he presents. The chapters lead from the subject of disintegration to its opposite â€” unity,as De Chardin speaks of the evolution of the mind with the concept of energy. According to Collier, heis "showing through science a glimmer of something greater than science." Collier further commentedthat this was, in his opinion, "the most fascinating book written in the last twenty years on this subject."The Phenomenon of Man may adequately fit the symbol of the book and man's heart. As the arrowpasses from the ideas of this book, through the brain, to the heart, the aspect oi religion and sciencebecome correlated and man becomes occupied with the idea of an "imaginative reason for living."Whether it be The Phenomenon of Man or War and Peace, it is worthwhile to pick up a book and"wake up and read for a richer, fuller life." SPEECH CONVENTION People from all areas "People will be here from all areas of speech: therapy, speech education, drama and forensics. They will also be fromall levels: elementary, secondary and college." Dr. Laurence Brewster, president oi the WashingtonState Speech Association, enthusiastically talked about their convention which will be held on ourcampus this Friday and Saturday, April 21 and 22. Not only will the people attending the conventionbe from different areas and levels, but many of the panels are made up of cross sections of people withconcerns in varying areas of the speech iield. Other panelists will concentrate on one specific area orproblem, while well-known speakers, a banquet, a luncheon, and the presentation of the DramaDepartment's "Rumpelstilt-skin" complete the well-rounded, well-packed convention agenda. Friday'sprogram begins with a general session under the heading, "Ideas That Have Worked in the Teaching ofSpeech" with panelists from different levels of education. In the afternoon general session, persons frommajor Washington April 21, 1961 industries participate in a panel discussing "Communication inIndustry." There are also two groups of special interest sessions on Friday. The first has twosessions; cne dealing in speech education, and the other in drama with drama students from RooseveltHigh School taking part. The other session is concerned with radio and television and. has in its panelpersons in both educational and commercial aspects of the field. At the Friday night banquet LouisBruno, State Superintendent of Public Instruction, is the featured speaker, talking on "Speech in the 1960 Campaign." Dr. Bess Sondel will speak later in the evening in the College Auditorium at 8:15, on"Words as Speculative Instruments." On Saturday, Harold Michal-Smith, professor of Clinical Psychiatry and Director of Psychological Services at Metropolitan and Flower-Fifth Avenue Hospitals will give two speeches, "Psychological Problems of Teachign the Physically Handicapped" and "PsychologicalAspects of the Acoustically Handicapped." Another speech will be given by Dr. Bess Sondel at thebefore noon general session on "Communicative Theory." Special interest sessions will deal with transfer of credit in speech from junior colleges to universities and other colleges, and speech educationresearch projects. BESS SONDEL Lecture on words Bess Sondel, Professorial Lecturer inCommunication from the University of Chicago, is coming to Western on April 21 at 8:15 p.m. to speak on "Words as Speculative Instruments." She will lecture on April 22 at 11:00 a.m. in the Viking Union Lounge on "Communication Theory, 1961." Professor Sondel took her Ph.D. (cum laude) with Phi BetaKappa in 1931. Her Ph.D. was interdepartmental in that her researches were concerned with thehistory of ideas with correlations in philosophy and the humanities. When asked in 1936 to instruct acourse in Speech, she protested that she knew nothing at all about communication. This was, she wastold, among her qualifications for the task. She began to study in earnest, making the physical andbehavioral sciences the "basis for study in communication theory. Her focus, through the years, hasbeen on human behavior as mediated by words. The WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAI result has(brought her national recognition for the development of a field theory of communication. Dr. Sondel isthe author of many books, and she is currently the author of the column entitled, "Personal To You," inthe Chicago Sunday Tribune. She served as Consultant to the Industrial Relations Center of theUniversity of Chicago (1950-53); as Consultant in Communication to the Faculty of the Graduate Schoolof Business, University of Chicago; Consultant to Albert Ramond Associates, Industrial Engineers (1955-56). Dr. Sondel is a member of the Mayor's Commission on Human Relations (EducationCommittee) of the City of Chicago. She is also listed in Who's Who in the Midwest; Who's Who inEducation; Who's Who of American Women; and in the forthcoming issue of Leaders in AmericanScience (Behavioral; Communication). SWEA Requirements listed Those interested in the teachingprofession will not want to miss the next meeting of SWEA, April 24, 7 p;m., in the Campus SchoolAuditorium. The topic "New Horizons" will be discussed by Dr. Wendell Allen, Director ofCertifications, Washington State Board of Education; Vern Archer, Treasurer of WEA; and Dr. AllenRoss, head of Western's Graduate Study. These men will present information pertaining to the newmovement concerning teacher requirements and certification. At a recent regional meeting of SWEA a panel of Washington educators of various capacities spoke on the essential requirements forteachers. Here is a condensed version of their list. 1) Teachers must recognize each child as adistinctly different personality with needs, capabilities and limitations. 2) Teachers must be able toaccept each child as he is and the product of the home from which he comes. The teacher must be able to serve the needs of the child by making him feel important and wanted. 3) Teachers need to beprofessionally qualified, versed in new methods and techniques, thoroughly prepared in subject matterand able to present the materials in meaningful lessons. 4) Teachers must be interested in thecommunity in which they teach. This goes beyond the tacit acceptance of minor responsibilities.

SEEPAGE 8 Page 6 WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN April 21, 1961 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1961 April 21 - Page 7 ---------- BASEBALL Viks move into conference lead Paced by the fine pitching of senior right-hander JoeFosnick, Western's Vikings moved into first place in the Western division of the EvergreenConference iby dividing a double-header with the UPS Loggers last Saturday. Fosnick picked up two hits for the Viks and pitched a four hitter as he downed the Loggers in the nightcap 4-1. In the first game,sophomore Ken Schultz allowed only five hits, but came out on the short end of a 2-1 score. The Vikscould manage only five safeties off Jerry Hoxsey, UPS ace, and were never able to bunch more than twointo any one inning. Tomorrow the baseballers travel to St. Martins for their last road trip of the year. St.Martins, rather an unknown quantity, has had trouble winning thus far and should not give too muchcompetition to the pennant contending Vikings. INTRAMURALS "Gung-Ho's" to hold meet Western'sfirst intramural track meet has been definitely set ior May 11 and 12 at the College oval. Dr. MargaretAitken and Dr. Ray Ciszek, co-directors for the meet, announced that entry blanks are now availablein their respective offices. The meet will provide competition on both an individual and team basis and inaddition will have men and women divisions. "There will be team scores kept so contestants are urged to form their teams as soon as possible," stated Dr. Ciszek, "but individuals will also be able to completeunattached." He also pointed out that a minimum of six turnouts are required beiore the meet. Events to be staged include all the running events from 75 yards up to and including the mile run, the 200 yard low hurdles, a 440 yard relay and a 880 yard relay. Also on the agenda are the high jump, broad jump, polevault, shot 'put and discus. The women's division will include running events from 50 yards to 880 yards,the 70 yard low hurdles and both relays. Field events for the ladies will feature the high jump, broadjump, 8-lb. shot put, softball throw and the standing broad jump. In addition to the intramural aspectsof the game, national awards will be given to the top three places in each event at Western. This will bedone through the co-operation of the American Association of Health, Physical Education andRecreation. Contestants are free to use the running track at any time, according to the meet directors.This includes after school sessions when the Varsity track squad will be conducting turnouts. TRACK Thinclads post first win Don Trethewey remained unbeaten, but Pete Kempf stole the spotlight asWestern's thinclads scored their first victory of the season, 69 to 63, over Eastern Washington. Kempfpicked up a first in the discus, second in the low hurdles and javelin, a tie for second in the high jumpand a third in the high hurdles for 14 points. Kempf â€” versatility man Trethewey won his specialties, the mile and two-mile for ten points and second high honors. A "bonus" was picked up by the Vikings when Jim Freeman came in third in these two events and extended Eastern's ace Clyde Carpenter. Anotherdouble winner was Jerry Joyce in the 100 and 200 yard events. The latter was shortened due to a soggytrack. Joyce also shared in the mile relay that assured the Viking victory, with a time of 3:27.4 for thebest time in the conference so far. Cal Pap-ritz was the next double winner as he posted wins in bothhurdle events. These were Papritz's first points of the year as he broke into the point column with abang. Next up for the blue-and-white is a triangular meet between UPS and PLU in Tacoma tomorrow.Joyce should meet his sternest competition tomorrow when he faces Jack Hig-^j gins wiho was rankednationally last year. Another trouble area for the ! Viks will be in the pole vault. Ron Hanna, former WWC athlete, is favored to cop this event for the Lutes. After four meets, senior Don Trethewey paces thecindermen with 40 points. RUGBY Rugby Club finishes second Western's Rugby Club had to settle forsecond place in the Vancouver Rugby Union when they were beaten eight to three by the defendingchampion Meraloma Club last Saturday in the British Columbia city. The Viking ruggers, playing theirfirst season in the first division of the Union, were missing several of the players that toad pushed theminto the championship game. Mike McVay, one of the stalwarts of the scrum line, is not in school andSam Martin, "three line" sparkplug, was out with injuries. In addition, Dennis Sheppard, one of theruggers' leading scorers, played under the handicap of two shoulder separations. It was another ofthe recent "walking wounded" that scored the only try ifor the Rugby Club. Ray Devier punched overthe ruggers' only score from a "scrum" situation. Finishing second is actually quite an accomplishmentfor the "bloody Yanks." Coming on the heels of the recent third place finish in the California Invitational Tourney, the ruggers showed they can play with the best of the teams on the coast. The outlook fornext year is at the time still pretty hazy. Not satisfied with their status this past year, the club isexploring several different avenues of participation. TENNIS Netmen drop third in a row Winless afterthree starts, Western's tennis squad will try to even their conference standing at one and one nextTuesday when they travel to UPS for a match with the Loggers. Last Saturday the netters were shut out, 7-0, by Central's strong contingent.

"I've always supported an increase intuition," he said in a recent story in The Bellingham Herald. "Those little pukes spend more on CDs than they do on tuition." Braddockfeels students should pay a whole lot more for tuition, said Mary Murray of Western's student financialresources office. "I expected him to say it (the comment) was out of context," Murray said after talkingwith Braddock. "(Braddock's comment) hit us as being incorrect," said Fred Ondeck, assistantdirector for student financial resources. "It's not what we see ... from our perspective, we see a lot ofstudents with no extra money on a tight budget and not wasting the money they have." "(Braddock)comments from a point of ignorance," Associated Students Secretary/Treasurer Lance Olsen said.

Organizers claim victory for day without oil ByCharity Proctor staff reporter Thursday has come and gone, apparently with no change in Western'sdriving habits. But organizers of a "Day in the Life Without Oil "say the boycott was a success. "If wewere able to make people think about driving their cars to campus...then it's a success," said Paula Swedeen, one of four Western students behind the boycott. "It's a small start, but it's a start," said CarolLee Gallaghar. The organizers (Gallaghar, Swedeen, Michael Lolley and Jeff Wall) agree that the goal ofthe boycott was accomplished. "The goal for me was to get people to think about it," Wall said. "I didn'texpect the C (Commuter) lots to be empty." Debbie Brock, Western parking services dispatcher, said itwas "just business as usual." But many people did give a positive response, organizers said. "Onewoman came out and said this is really great Ithinkit's great you're doing this, andmy sonisreallyp doffatmebecausehe doesn't have a ride to school anymore; he has to take the bus now,'" Lolley said.Concern about the war's effect on important issues, like the environment, was a driving force behind theorganizers' efforts. "We didn't wantthe war to bury other relevant issues," Wall said. This is not a one-time event, organizers said; they plan to continue to sponsor the event, eventually having "A Day in theLife Without Oil" every week. They also said they will try to make future boycotts effective community-wide. Organizers stressed that this boycott's purpose is to make people think about oil use and whatit means, not to try and bring an end to automobile use. "Look at the situation; no matter what yourideology is, or your background, or what you think of me war, or what you think of any thing," Lolley said. ---------- Western Front - 1991 February 1 - Page 2 ---------- 2 The Western Front NEWS February 1,1991 PIO file photo Professor Herbert C. Taylor, shown hereteaching one of his classes, died Monday in Hawaii at age 66. Prof. Herbert Taylor dies By MariaManliclic features editor Herbert C. Taylor, a noted West-em professor emeritus of anthropology, diedMonday of an apparentheart attack in Hawaii where he and his wife, Carol J. Diers, Westernpsychology professor, were visiting as part of an extended vacation. "He was a very learned man witha curious mind. A true scholar ... dedicated to teaching," said Angelo Anastasio, professor ofanthropology. Anastasio thoughtfully described his colleague and friend of 41 years as a kind, generousand compassionate person dedicated to teaching. "Wenavebeenfriends since 1949, and met at graduate school at the University of Chicago," Anastasio said. "He was a great friend who would do anything foryou â€” one of the few best friends I ever had," he said. Taylor, born Nov. 29, 1924, in Houston, Texas,came to Western in 1951 and became one of the most popular lecturers in Western's history. "He wasan outstanding lecturer, one of four of the best Western ever had," Anastasio said. Beforeretiring in 1986, enrollment in Taylor's classes totaled more than 18,000 students. He continued teaching part-time inthe anthropology department after his retirement, teaching two seminar classes during his last quarter:fall quarter 1990. "He was a great professor who did alotforWestem,"saidHowardHarris, associateprofessor of anthropology. Taylor helped establish the social studies department in 1953 and wasinstrumental in creating the sociology/ anthropology department in 1960, serving as chair from 1960 to1965. He also served as the director of the Bureau for Faculty Research from 1961 to 1964 and asassociate dean and dean for research and grants from 1964 through 1974. "Dr. Taylor was a talentedand highly contributive member of our University ... serving as faculty, administrator and in many ways as exemplar of our profession," Acting Provost/Vice President of Academic Affairs Larry DeLormesaid. Taylor was a prime mover in establishing the Computer Center, securing funding and servingas aPolicy Committee member. As dean for research, he oversaw the initiation of certain programssuch as Upward Bound and Teacher Corps. His work as liaison with the Washington state legislaturebrought crucial supportfor the university. "He was a good friend and a great teacher," Harris said. "We'recertainly sorry to lose him."

As a member of the HRP, the VOC is located on the secondfloor of the Viking Union among other HRP offices, including those of the Gay and Lesbian Alliance(GALA), the Men's Center and the Women's Center. The VOC presented a memo to the AS Board ofDirectors on Monday, citing reasons to support their suggested disengagement from the HRP. Citedwere sexual issues which are dealt with by GALA, as well as the Men's and Women's Centers.Another reason was the confusion of the Veteran's center being mistakenly thought of as ideologicallyand politically supportive of these offices. VOC coordinator Tim Osterholm said he feels the office heruns is a unique one. Of all the HRP offices, the VOC is the only one open from 8 a.m.-5 p.m., Mondaythrough Friday. AS funds pay only for Osterholm's position; the other 14 staff members are paid withfederal funds for veter- Osterholm said this limits his power to mandate VOC members' participation inAS-sponsored events. "Removal from the HRP is not removal from the Associated Students,"Osterholm said. "I just want to report to the AS board like a lot of the other offices do, like theEnvironmental Center and the Peace Resource Center do. "I'mnotknocking on their (GALAandtheMen's and Women's Center's) door asking them to wave flags, just the same as I shouldn't have to go to an HRP meeting and be required to participate in the Rights of Spring," he added. On the otherside of the controversy is GALA which was specifically named in the VOC memo as being one whichsponsors events serving no function for members of the VOC. Heidi Herman, co-coordinator of GALA,said she did not believe the whole story was told by the "practical" reasons cited in the memo."Before, they (the VOC) were willing to roll with the punches (and work alongside GALA)," Herman said."But now it's like they have made a 180-degree turnaround concerning the social and political stancesof the (VOC) coordinators." Herman said she feels the personal beliefs of VOC members are getting in the way of the professional quality of carrying out one's job and told of an incident in which sexual-minority slurs were overheard by GALA members coming from the VOC office. Herman added thatGALA is an office which tries to work with people and not against them. Herman and other members inher office believe sexual-minority slurs in the form of jokes do more harm than good and should be leftout of the workplace, especially when the workplace is a couple of doors away from an office which isconsidered a sanctuary by sexual minorities. "I have my opinions on the military butl don't talk aboutthem during office hours," Herman said. "The office is not the right place." Michael Dumas, co-coordinator of GALA, said not all veterans feel the same as some members of the VOC. Dumas said six veterans had approached him and told him they were embarrassed by Osterholm's actions at the ASmeeting. Dumas spoke of some veterans, as well as sexual-minority members, who are intimidated bythe attitudes expressed by members of the VOC. They are so intimidated they choose to enter theGALA office without passing by the doors of the VOC, he said. Pete Kendall/The Western Front TimOsterholm, coordinator of the Veteran's Outreach Center, continues to push for a relocation of the center's office. "It creates an anti-veteran sentiment and it's too bad, because there are some excellent vetswho work with it (the VOC)," Dumas said. The AS board will further consider the proposed VOC move, but in the meantime, the office will stay where it is. Osterholm said relocating the office would helpalleviate the controversy between the two offices. Herman suggested the VOC look for facilities off-campus as an answer to the controversy linking the two offices. Yet unless the AS board decides sucha radical move is necessary to solve the problem, the VOC has as much right as GALA to house itsoffice on Western's campus. Braddock: 'little pukes1 need tuition hike BUDGET, from page 1 nal affairs. "Dennis is well known for wisecracks," Froderberg said. "I think that was one of them ... you musn'ttake things like that too seriously. "(You just) have to laugh that one off. There goes Dennis again."Although Froderberg said the comment was typical for Braddock, Ondeck was shocked. "I am asupporter of Braddock's goals and policies; it just wasn't like him... my view of him. I don't know if itreflects totally on what he does," Ondeck said. "Braddock is a pretty good guy actually ... maybe he'snot aware people are struggling with tuition. Western could be hit with many dilemmas as early asApril if the state legislature votes in favor of Gov. Booth Gardner's budget proposal. Gardner proposed a5.5 percent cut into higher education. Froderberg said he views the 5.5 percent cut as an 8 percent cutfor Western. In terms of enrollment, a possible 690 fewer students could attend Western and 80 staffpositions could also be eliminated. On the other hand, the state could allow schools to keep admissionlevels at their current level and increase class sizes. Each percent cut from education equalsapproximately $1.1 million, therefore approximately $8 million would be cut from higher education inWashington, Froderberg said. Western students can expect a 10 percent increase in tuition in the nexttwo years, according to aBellingham Herald story. Olsen said the government is committed to diversity,but new programs will suffer first and foremost. "Cutspermeate everybody... when reductions comethrough they may seem small," Ondeck said.

Student organizers hope to have thepesticide-tainted grapes removed from the dining halls and the campus catering service. Grape growingcorporations in California use a number of pesticides on their crops, many of which can be harmful tohuman health. "The grape growers use oil-based pesticides which have been proven to cause cancer,"reads a sign posted outside Wilson Library. The number of cases of cancer in Califomian grapeharvesters, most of whom are Latino or Hispanic, is "outrageous," said Salvador Martin, director ofWestern's MEChA branch. MEChA hopes a nationwide boycott of the grapes can further persuadecorporations to switch to organic means of growing the grapes. Representatives from MEChA met withUniversity Food Services Director Larry Stahlberg to discuss the proposed boycott last fall quarter.Martin, along withMEChA members Lisa Bosques and Camille Diaz Hackler, talked with Stahlberg andgave him a videotape titled "The Wrath of Grapes" to view. The video, made by the United Farm Workers, is a short account of the farm-labor situation in California and of the dangers posed to workers bypesticides used on the grapes. "We're declaring war ... war on the pesticides that are killing ourchildren," saidHispanicactivistCesar Chavez in a speech from the video. The pesticides Captan, Dinoseb, Methyl Bromide, Parathion and Phosdrin are specifically targeted for causing cancer, birth defects andnear instantaneous death for workers and their children. The effect of pesticides on farm communitieslike McFarland, Calif., are examples behind the workers' growing anxieties over possiblecontamination. When the video was produced in 1986, 11 children in a six-block area of the towncontracted cancer and six of them died. "The video is an emotional presentation of the farmworkersside of the story... (it) definitely conjures up an emotional response," said Stahlberg, who added thevideo was factual. Stahlberg referred the MEChA representatives to the Housing and Dining Committee.MEChAmembers Hackler and Michelle Steed met with the committee during its Jan. 15 meeting. OnJan. 22, the committee watched the video and discussed what should be done about the boycott.Members of the committee were concerned because the video was made almost five years ago andcircumstances might have changed. They were also concerned they hadn' t heard both sides of thestory. "We need to get some objective information from something like Huxley Enviromental Scienceswho MARK A.

The committee decided to wait and "gather moreinformation before making a decision," Stahlberg said. Representatives from MEChA will meet with thecommittee in the near future and hope a decision will be reached. Martin said he was not disappointed by the committee's decision to hold off on making an immediate decision. "That's only fair; we're notinconsiderate to the wheels of bureaucracy," Martin said. But he said if MEChA feels the committee is "putting them off," then efforts to educate people will be increased. While grape-growingcorporations continue to use pesticides, some movement is being made to limit their use. "Parts ofthe government are responsive to appropriate agriculture. Even the Department of Agriculture isinvestigating how we can do organic farming, but the process is slow," said Huxley professor Richard J.Mayer, who also said certain pesticides are being regulated. Some consumers remain apathetic tothe dangers of pesticides, both to workers and themselves. "People don't care as long as they get theirproduct," Martin said. Students working on the boycott believe once people are educated about thepesticides, it should be easy to give up the grapes. "If they're willing to make concessions for animals, I don't see why they can't make them for humans," Martin said.

Mama Sundays, an Associated Students Special Events organization,addresses this poor college student issue by providing high quality, low price concerts each weekend.Many students are not aware that Mama Sundays exists, and this valuable resource is not being taken advantage of. "Mama Sundays is an opportunity for students to be exposed to multi-diversifiedmusic," said Stefan Schlesinger, coordinator for Mama Sundays. Mama Sundays has been around for15-20 years and first began with an emphasis on guitar. Since then, Mama Sundays has expanded itshorizons to more cultural diversity by incorporating different styles of music and performers, rangingfrom folk to jazz. This quarter, Mama Sundays is focusing in on African music with upcomingperformances by Northwest Afrikan American Ballet, Anzanga and African Roots. "We are trying tohave performers that offer a new direction," Schlesinger said. "These groups have roots, a connectionto heritage." Many of the groups sponsored by Mama Sundays are top acts at the Folk Life Festival orBumbershoot in Seattle. These concerts offer students a chance to see performers, often of international fame, for a very low price. Northwest Afrikan American Ballet consists of 16 dancers and musicians,dressed in colorful African ceremonial costumes. With an emphasis on dnimming and original dancemovements, inspired by traditional dances from Senegal, Gambia, Mali, Guinea and West Africa, theNorthwest Afrikan American Ballet will introduce the audience to ethnic diversity and an extraordinarydance performance. Northwest Afrikan American Ballet will be performing at 8 p.m. Feb. 2, in thePerforming Arts Center. Tickets are sold at the door and the cost is $5.00 for students and $7.00 forgeneral admission. Homemade cookies, tea and coffee are served at the intermissions. Most of MamaSundays concerts are in the Viking Union coffee shop, located on the fifth floor of the Viking Addition.Children are admitted free to the coffee shop concerts. The concerts generally run from 8-10 p.m.Friday or Saturday nights. Mama Sundays tries to link up with student organizations by schedulingperformers that correspond with them. Student requests are also taken into consideration when theconcerts are planned. Mama Sundays flyers are posted around campus with dates and times ofupcoming concerts. Mama Sundays goal is to present quality performances that are also veryentertaining and inexpensive. The concerts that are lined up for this quarter make a great option tosome of the other weekend activities. Schlesinger guarantees that every show will be good. Studentpopulation at greatest risk for STDs By Gloria Robinson copy editor "This isn't going to happen to me..." These are the famous last words of someone who risks getting a Sexually Transmitted Disease (STD),by not practicing "safe sex." More than 10 million people are infected each year with an STD, and85percentofthecasesinvolvepeople between the ages of 15-30, according to a Sexual Awareness Centerpamphlet. The number one fastest spreading STD is not AIDS, but Chlamydia, saidMichelle Weber ofthe Mt. Baker Planned Parenthood. Weber said four million new cases of Chlamydia are diagnosedyearly. Chlamydia is abacterial infection in one's urinary and reproductive organs, Weber explained."It's a disease where most females have no symptoms," she added. For those women infected withChlamydia, 60-80 percent have no symptoms. Weber said the sad thing about the disease is many don't realize they have Chlamydia until they try to conceive a child and find themselves sterile. Of theenormous number of cases diagnosed yearly, 100,000 end in sterility for the victim. Unlike AIDS,Chlamydia is cur-taboo associated with these bodily bumps, Weber said it's easy to deny it's actually agenital wart. Treatment for genital warts includes topical ointments, freezing or burning the wart off,Weber said. boms yearly, through transmission of the virus during childbirth. "People with Herpes have it forever," Weber said. Weber said she believes everyone should utilize their health care sys- Morethan 10 million people are infected each year with an STD, and 85 percent of the cases involve peoplebetween the ages of 15-30. - Sexual Awareness Center Pamphlet able with simple antibiotic therapy,Weber said. "The symptoms have to be taken care of. They don't go away be themselves," Weber said.Weber said STD symptoms include discharge, itching, burning during urination, bumps, lumps,lesions, open sores and fever. Weber also warns students of a STD called Human Papilloma Virus(HPV) or, morecommonly known as, genital warts. "This is kind of a controversial STD because manydoctors and health professionals believe it can put one more at risk of getting cervical cancer," Webersaid. Weber said there are an estimated three million genital wart cases diagnosed yearly. Because of the negative Also among the most prevalent STDs today is Herpes. Weber said an estimated 30 millionpeople are infected with the virus, and 500,000 to one million more cases diagnosed yearly. HerpesSimplex-I is the common coldsore. Herpes Simplex-H is a painful, blistering sore which appears on or in the penis, vagina or anus. While this sore is "active," one is at risk of transmitting the virus to apartner, Weber said. "You can't have any kind of intercourse while the sore is active," Weber said.Weber said women with active sores infect an estimated 5,000 new-tem. She recommends those whosuspect they have an STD should seek help at Western's health center, the Whatcom County HealthDepartment or Planned Parenthood. While the places listed provide medical assistance, Western'sSexual Awareness Center provides students with information, support and referrals on STD relatedproblems. "We encourage students to come to us for peer counseling," director Mary Beth Cesario said. Cesario said she feels it's easier to talk to another student about sex. "College is a time when you'reaway from home for the first time, and you become more sexually active. It's important students haveaccess (to information and referral)," Cesario said. "You cannot afford to be promiscuous in the 90's.It's important to know the other person," assistant director, Heather Morton, said. So, the importantquestion left on everyone's mind is: What is safe sex? Planned Parenthood recommends five steps "for a safer and healthier sex life:" 1. Know your partner's sexual history. 2. Use a reliable form of birthcontrol. 3. Use a "barrier method," or the stance- "No glove, no love." Weber recommends the use of acondom and a spermicide with Nonoxynol-9, which kills all bacteria and viruses. Weber said protectivesponges are also available with the spermicide. 4. Have a monogamous relationship with your partner. 5. Abstinence is the safest solution. The three STDs mentioned in this article aren't the only onesstudents are at risk of. These are just the more prevalent of the sex diseases going around today. Onemust be careful and protect themselves from the risks associated with unsafe sex. BELLINGHAMSONLY..

Exp. 2-8-91 J ---------- Western Front - 1991 February 1 - Page 6 ---------- 6 The Western Front ACCENT February 1,1991 Profiles of the island castaways By Sally James staffreporter "Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale, a tale of a fateful trip..." It was the song that made usrace for the nearesttelevisionsetandkeptus glued there for the next thrilling half hour. It was the showknown only as "Gilligan's Island." Of course, we all remember the tale about the group of sevencastaways who, after what was supposed to be a three hour tour, end up shipwrecked when theS.S. Minnow, the notso faithful sightseeing charter boat, is destroyed in a tropical storm. Played by Alan Hale, Jr., the Skipper's name was Jonas Grumby. We remember him as the roily man with a shorttemper dawned in that familiar blue shirt, tan pants and skipper's hat. He was the group leader who wasseen many times angrily chasing after the main character, Gilligan, also known as his "little buddy."Gilligan, played by Bob Denver, was the first mate with the big heart. He was the star of the show whocould be recognized by that familiar red shirt and white fisherman's hat. He was the klutz of the bunch,and probably too skinny for his own good. Known to most as the Skipper's scrawny assistant, he always managed to fumble up a great idea. Then there was the millionaire and his wife. Thurston Howell IJJ,played by Jim Backus, and Lovey Howell, played by Natalie Schafer, were the happy married couple with the distinguished and all too familiar English accents. Thurston always seemed to find time for a gameof golf while Luvey, known to the rest of the group as Mrs. Howell, sat on a lawn chair sunning herself.Looking into the camera with those big, brown eyes, itwouldn'tbeunlikely to assume Lovey was perhapsmissing a few marbles. And who could forget the beautiful movie star, Ginger Grant, with thegorgeous red hair and perfect figure. Played by Tina Louise, she was the entertainment, the seducer(when needed for those occasional island visitors who always managed to get away) and the star of themany skits and plays. Of course, no island of castaways could be complete without a brilliant scientist, who to the surprise of many, actually had a name. Roy Hinkley, known to everyone as the "Professor"was probably the only logical one of the bunch. Playedby Russell Johnson, he was the creator of ideasand the fixer of all the gadgets, including the occasional radio that happened to wash up on shore.Rounding up the bunch was Mary Ann Summers, the pretty clerk from Kansas. Played by Dawn Wells(the cast member who received the most fan mail) she was the girl everyone liked. She wasn't around for any special reason, except, perhaps as a good cook, buttheisland just wouldn't be the same withoutthis sweet, small town girl. Yet, when one thinks about it, the island just wouldn't be the same without"...Gilligan, the Skipper too, themillionaire andhis wife, the movie star, the professor and Mary Ann hereon Gilligans island.'

WHERE ARE YOU???? By Tracy Brewder staff reporterHave you ever wondered what happened to those seven stranded castaways that were once onGilligan'sIsland? Bob Denver, who played the role of Gilligan, appeared in "Bring Me the Head of Dobie Gillis" in1988. Some may remember the older sitcom called "Dobie Gillis" which was another popular roleDenver played. The beautiful movie star Ginger Grant, played by Tina Louise, starred in the movie "DixieLanes" in 1988. JimBackus, a veteran of more than 75 movie roles, played the millionaire ThurstonHowell the m. Backus and Alan Hale Jr., who played the Skipper, have both died in the last two years. Mrs. Lovey Howell, played by Natalie Shafer, Mary Ann, played by Dawn Wells and the brilliantscientist played by Russell Johnson have not been noted in any recent media records. Perhaps theypreferred the privacy of that uncharted deserted isle. T T f f f f Gilligan's probing questions By Gilligan's Secret Love Slave managing editor Taken at face value, Gilligan and his fellow castaways are models of simplicity, building a Utopian society far away from civilization. This is one of those mistakes viewersmake in watching this show - they fail to examine its complexities, to probe more deeply into theallegorical texture the show presents to its faithful viewers in TV Land. Here are some of the moremoving and powerful ideas and ideals one is forced to ponder with each new episode: 1. The themesong states the Skipper's tour was only supposed to last for three hours. So why did Maryann andGinger bring all of those clothes? 2. Why did Mr. and Mrs. Howell - being millionaires and all - botherslumming on the S.S. Minnow? Wouldn't they have their own yacht? 3. Where did they get enoughbatteries to last for seven years of being castaways, and how did they know to turn on the radio onlyduring those all-important news updates? 4. What did they use for soap and shampoo? And how didthey all shave? 5. How could Maryann and Ginger make all of those pies if they had no flour to makepie crust? 6. Why didn't they all die of premature heart attacks with their coconut- rich diets? 7. Did Maryann and the professor (for example) really have a secret thing going? What about Gilligan andGinger? Were they swingers with the Howells? And where did the Skipper fit into all of this? 8. How didMaryann and Ginger and Lovey (although Lovey probably hit menopause) deal with, you know, that timeof the month? 9. Exactly how did their record player work? 10. Where did they get fresh water? 11.Where did they all go to the bathroom? 12. What is the Professor's real name? 13. How come at leastfifty visitors came to the island, and none of these visitors ever notified the U.S. Coast Guard of theirexistence? 14. Where did they get those cool hammocks in Gilligan's and the Skipper's huts? 15. Ho w did the mad scientist who came to the island make all of them switch voices? 16. Where did Ginger get all of her hairspray? 17. How come the Professor had all the food lockers in his hut? Did he have somesort of trust-paranoia complex? 18. Why was the Skipper so fat if all he ate were bananas? 19. Howcome nobody ever got sick in all of seven years? 20. FINALLY - if the Professor could do everything from building a washing machine to making potion so Gilligan disappeared, why couldn't he just build astupid boat so they could sail off the island? What's your favorite episode? By Anne Nfchol staff reporter The elementary school bell rang at 3 p.m. and the child ran, coat half on, to the school bus. The ridehome was full of television theme songs and anticipations of the free evening. When the bus stopped the kid was off in a flash and running to the front door. The door flies open (if lucky, closed), and a trail ofthe child's possessions leads to the television. It is turned on just in time to hear the singing "...here onGilligan's Isle." The child settles in for a half-hour of totally mindless entertainment. "Gilligan's Island"brought this type of memory to most people of the twenty-something generation. Consisting of themost basic plots, the show never asked its audience to ponder deep political thoughts. Modern daysitcoms ask us to deal with issues such as war, alcoholism, teenage pregnancy and drug abuse.Today's shows leave people with a stressful scenario and afew strategically placed laughs, but not goodold "Gilligan's Island." When this classic show is brought up in conversation it almost always brings upa smile and fond memories. The favorite episode of Joby Pearson, finance, is when the Professor hascreated a fluorescent paint to signal passing ships, and Gilligan accidentally, of course, ends upcovered with it. In order to keep it from going to waste, Gilligan is put out on a raft to try and signalships at night. It did not, however, get them off the island. (As if you couldn't have guessed.) Plasticexplosives is what Rick Mazzaferro, communications, remembers fondly. He particularly enjoyedthe show where Gilligan gets his teeth filled with the plastic found byhispetchimpanzee. Unfortunately, itturned out to be explosive and gave a new meaning to Gilligan shooting his mouth off.KellieStewarthasafavorite where Gilligan isn't the central character. She liked the time Mary Arm gets hit on the head and takes on Ginger's identity.Notonly does she shorten all of Ginger's dresses but she also murders the classic song "I Wanna Be Loved By You." Rhonda Knudtson, health education, hastwo favorites. The first is when a man comes to the island and pretends he is aTarzan-type creature. The other is when Gilligan ends up invisible through messing with one of the Professor's experiments. Beinginvisible was a lot of fun for Gilligan until he becomes visible while insulting the Skipper, which can lead to only one thing, getting hit with Skipper's hat. The final favorite episode to be acknowledged is that ofMike Thompson. His favorite is when the big-game hunter comes to the island to hunt a man. Gilligan, of course, becomes his target and must hide from the hunter or be shot If Gilligan successfully survived,the hunter was to take the crew off the island. He didn't, of course, for fear of being prosecuted forhunting people. This show was a lot of fun, and will hopefully continue running for years to come so thatother children can grow up singing it's theme song and laughing at its slapstick-style humor. Gilligan'sIsland is being shown on TNT weekdays at 3 pan. iiiiisiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiR itillllilil^ ||Â£;Soii^ iiiri^ a woman'ssearch By Patricia Davis i^iiliiillliiillli few fleeting moments of solace in the lllllti^ land" theme, depicts awoman (Mia meaning; she's suffering from*pro-found case of weariness and dissatisfaction.

In one particular scene where Joehas persuaded Alice to come back to his apartment, she is such a nervous wreck that she can't stoptalking. It is here that Farrow comes across as sort of the female equivalent of one of Allen'squintessentially neurotic New York males*. Moreover, Allen's camera work and Farrow's acting makeAlice's initial discomfort tangible. Yet, from the beginning of the film, Allen uses his camera to bring us right into Alice's world by capturing his subjects with up-close and personal shots. The otherworldlylighting makes it appear as though Alice's experiences are just part of some surreal adventure. Instead of strictly relying on natural shades of gray, Alice is bathed in hues of soft orange. Perhaps this reliance on earth tones (albeit slightly unearthly in a way), foreshadows Alice's eventual coming back down toearth in terms of lifestyle. In so many words, both visually and thematically, "Alice" is a lovinglycrafted film, and comes across as something of a sweet valentine from Allen to Farrow. While "Alice"may not be brilliant as a serious drama or hilarious as a comedy, it's truly a wonderful "little" fantasythat more than holds its own as far as the rest of Allen's impressive work is concerned.

Steinfeldhad 18 points and 6-3 sophomore guard Russ Field added 11. Dergousoff hadeightpoints for the Clan."This (Western) is a very tough place to play games and we haven't had a very good record here in thepast," Clan head coach Jay Triano said. "But we're starting to play better as a team lately and to come in here and get a win is very important for us." 11 Several of the Vikings' past games Rollerblading:smoothest way to use your two feet By Dan Tolley staff reporter Move over Skate King, now there'ssomething speedier â€” and better. Rollerblading. Once a training method for numerous winter sports,ithas transpired into one of the fastest growing sports in the world today. In-line skating, or "blading" asenthusiasts call it, has quickly become the thing to do in the world of recreation. In-line skating offersthe control of ice skating, the smoothness of roller skating and the motions of skiing all in one. Millionsof people are now discovering this diverse sport. To many people's surprise, this new sport is far frombeing new. In fact, the concept of in-line skating is over 200 years old. The first in-line skates date backto the 1700s, when a Dutchman tried to simulate ice skating during wanner times by nailing woodenspools to strips of wood. He then connected these strips to his shoes. This firstform of skates seemedto flop, and in turn went unnoticed by most everyone. During the next hundred years, roller skates wentthrough many changes. "Wheels in a row" was the norm until 1863, when James LeonardPlimptoncameup with theroller skate as we think of today, with two wheels side by side on the front andthe rear of the skate. This style became so popular that the in-line skate disappeared. Then in 1980,two Minnesota brothers re-invented the in-line skate. The skates were developed to allow hockey players to train in the off season. Skiers soon caught on to this new training method, which enabled them to gothrough the motions of skiing when snow wasn't available. Today, in-line skating is raging across notonly our country, but the entire world. All types of people â€” adults and kids, males and females, die-hard exercise buffs and the weekend athlete â€” are now finding out about the exercise and excitementthat in-line skating offers. The rate in which the sport of inline skating is growing is incredible. Over the last few years, sales have skyrocketed, leaving many dealers empty-handed when times are booming.Trying to keep up with consumer demand has been aproblem manufacturers don't mind dealing with.Most people refer to the sport as rollerblading, butlikemostregistered trademarksâ€”Xeroxand Jell-oamong them â€” Rollerblade, the company that developed the modern in-line skate, wants to encourageenthusiasts to call the sport "in-line skating," in an effort to keep its trademark rights. Rollerblade isconsidered the elite of in-line skates. Ithas beenswamped with orders that never seem to end. DaneStephenson, a Rollerblade demonstrator andrepresentative, said have been close until the end.Western lost games to both Seattle University and Central, in which the Vikings trailed, thencame back to within a single point or even tied the score, but couldn't get over the hump. The pressure of the final minutes of the game has kept Western from racking up more victories. "We get into a situationwhere we are tied or just behind ... we shot 36 percent (from the floor) and we don't seem to be able tobuy a bucket when we need it," Jackson said. The Clan took an early 14-6 lead over the Vikings, butWestern ran off nine straight points to go up, 15-14. The lead changed hands several times, but SFUwas able to keep Western playing catch-up. SFU led 44-39 at halftime. Three of Western's top 3-pointfield-goal shooters, freshman guard Jeff Dick, senior forward Atiavo Jude and junior guard Jeff Curtis,tossed in four outside shots in a five-minute period, helping the Vikings forge a 55-53 lead that wasquickly lost The Vikings were not able to establish an advantage over the Clan, with the exception of a one-point lead with three minutes left The Vikings were not able to take the lead for the remainder of the game. Leading scorers for the Vikings were Jude with 17 points, Dick with 16 points and junior centerKen Andersen with 13. Jude also added a team-high six rebounds. The Vikings travel to Ellensburg. fora rematch with Central at 7:30 p.m. Saturday. Pete Kendall/The Western Front Simon Fraser's AndrewSteinfeld (24) goes over the back of Jeff Curtis for a loose ball in Thursday's loss at Carver Gym. IScrewed Up In Tuesday's issue of the Front, I made a very serious error. On a page 13 photograph ofErica Porter, the picture was tampered with, altered and, in essence, falsified. The ball that Porterdribbled was at her feet in the original photo, seen in the teaser box on the front page of the paper. Licropping the photo, to make it fit into the appropriate space on the page, the ball was cut out and thepicture showed her running â€” minus a ball. I was annoyed because I wanted the ball in the picture andfelt it was lacking without it. I was tired and I was not using my best judgment I cut the ball out of theremaining unused photo and pasted it at her side. That was a no no. Tampering with a photo is liketampering with a Tylenol bottle â€” it should never be done. According to the Associated Press, thereare certain rules that must be followed for photojournalism. One of them is that pictures need to represent what actually happened â€” 100 percent truthfully. That didn't happen. But the story doesn't end there. The picture had photo editor Pete Kendall's byline under it. Kendall is the consummate professional. He has built a reputation for being a top-notch photographer by working hard and shooting wonderful,accurate photos. To set the record straight, the misrepresentation of Porter in the photo was done atmyhands, without any knowledge of the fact by Kendall. In doing so, I damaged the reputation of theFront, my colleagues and a friend. I apologize for any damage or injury my carelessness may havecaused. This is a student newspaper. We make mistakes. We learn from them. We don't make thesame mistake again. We're better for having looked stupid. Life goes on. And so will the Western Frontâ€” Michael Flynn sports editor he has a hard time keeping stores stocked with skates and theaccessories. "We can't keep up with consumer demand. Many of our retailers are being back ordereduntil we can catch up, but it's sort of a good problem to have," Stephenson said. One of the majorretailers in the area is Nordstrom, which sells about 250 pairs a month, per store. In-line skates can also be purchased at many sporting good stores, and even a few shoe stores. The cost of in-line skatescan be steep, ranging from $50- $330. But surprisingly, thecosthasn'thurtsales, which are still very high. Interest in the skates now goes way beyond the athletic training they were originally made for. Rollerhockey leagues have been formed, clubs established and in-line skate races are conducted. The skatesaren' t just for the die-hard competitor, however. For recreation purposes, the skates are everywhere.Students use them to get to class, men and women use them to get to work and fitness fanatics tired ofjarred joints make up anew wave of skaters. Warehouse workers are now beginning to use thembecause they speed things up and are very maneu-verable. Delivery people in big cities are trading intheir bikes for a pair of skates because they're just as fast and there is no need to lock anything up.Rollerblade now offers a skating camp that gives participants five days and five nights of ins traction oncoordination, safety and cross-training application of skating to other sports. Rollerblade wants you. In fact, the company has put together anew marketing campaign designed to attract college students'interest in the growing sport College students, loud music, Team Rollerblade and a Rollerblade demovan combine to bring to life the Rock 'n' Rollerblade Tour. The program features aperformance by Team Rollerblade, the company's professional demonstration experts, and then offers the opportunity forstudents to try out a pair of Rollerblades for themselves. The Great Adventure, located on ChestnutStreet, offers rentals of $8 for half a day, or $12 for a full day. Renters often become buyers after a fewtries if their funds are available. If not, renting is a great way to fine tune skills until students can affordtheir own pair. For people interested in mountain biking, skiing and other outdoor recreationalactivities, in-line skating is something you won't want to pass up. For those who haven't found theirfitness niche, this could be it It's ice skating, without the cold, and more. "Man, it's a rush â€” likenothing I've ever felt You justhave to do it to understand," one skater said. So get out and see what theworld is buzzing about before it rolls by. ---------- Western Front - 1991 February 1 - Page 10 ---------- 10 The Western Front OPINION February 1,1991 11 II!

P n e* I Work for long-term solutions to war By Mark Connolly guest commentary t's never too soon to worktowards long-term solutions to war. When the high emotions surrounding the first bombing havewaned; when the throngs of protesters have dispersed from Red Square and the Federal Building; whenthe public has grown weary of news from the Middle East, then the long-suffering work of stopping warmust continue. Stopping war is an immense, indefatigable task. A lot of people have been rallyingpublicly to stop war in the Middle East Their numbers are great and encouraging. If their desire,organizing and long-term commitment are strong enough, these people may indeed stop war. I can't think of many endeavors more worthy of the effort. I have, with much reservation, participated recently in acouple of local public demonstrations against our intervention in the Middle East. I have attended,casually almost, with specific motivations, intentions and expectations. I attended the Dec. 8 rally in front of the downtown Federal Building because I was concerned with Bush's unconstitutional tendency tocommit U.S. troops to conflict without consulting Congress. And I briefly stood with hundreds again infront of the Federal Building on Jan. 14. As the U .N. deadline loomed and U.S. aggression seemedimminent, now sanctioned by Congress, I wanted to stand in public again with those who still feltalternatives to war hadn't been given a fair shake. I wanted to castmy body among those countedby themedia and politicians against this aggression. I am, however, far from believing that my publicdemonstration was going to stop this war, or that such demonstrations will ever stop war.Responses such as demonstrations are important to build solidarity and to inform citizens andpoliticians of dissenting opinions. But they are never enough. As essayist Wendell Berry has pointed out, public protests subject the minds of their participants to certain dangers. One of these is over-simplification. Protesters might falsely assume, for instance, that if George Bush announces that he hasdecided to listen to our nations antiwar demonstrators and to withdraw troops, that thesedemonstrators have done their work and can go home and rest easy. Of courseitwouldn'tbe enoughevenifBush or Hussein backed down and withdrew troops from the desert and the threat of immediatehostilities dissipated. If we don't want war, we cannever go back to away of life as we knew it before Aug.2, 1990. If you're standing today against war - and mean it - life can never be the same. President Bush,ironically, is perfectly correct when he said our Middle East aggression is to protect "our way of life." Tostop war, activists new and veteran have to begin considering changing our lives to change an entire wayof life in the U.S. Stopping war involves not just reacting when crises like the Gulf Crisis erupt Stoppingwar means beginning to create a new culture not dependent on war to provide resources and economicstability. That's a gutsy commitment. It is radical - and it is forever. And this brings me to Berry's secondpoint about public protests: They tend to encourage self-righteousness. The old "us versus them"mentality. Bush is to blame. Republicans are to blame. Congress is to blame. Insane or stupid peopleare to blame. Of course, we're all somehow to blame. And to expect somebody else to change, withoutchanging ourselves as well, is starting off in the wrong direction. I'm the first to admit that the Middle East is confusing. But the most comprehensive analysis I've read as to why we're at war says that Bushneeds military spending to bolster our struggling economy. With the Cold War ending and people callingfor a Peace dividend, conversion to a peace-time economy and adequate social spending, the GulfWar is Bush's perfect crisis. He can continue to convince the American people - falsely - that force is the only solution to Iraq's aggression. Bush couldn't allow sanctions and diplomatic means to succeed. Heneeded to use the military so that whether Saddam withdrew or was beaten, our president could justifycontinued military force and hence military spending. Now, war or no war, conversion to a peace timeeconomy is made more difficult And people working for real peace have a longer road ahead. In a recent Z Magazine editorial, Michael Albert stated succinctly that as long as there is capitalism there will beimperialism. And as long as there is imperialism, there will be war. To stop this and other wars, we haveto begin to see our way of life as an ongoing crisis of which wars are an ugly, but not illogical, result Iencourage people who don't want war, to begin the long and difficult work of exploring the causes of warrooted in our economic system, and to develop the courage to build a society where war isn't a logicalextension of the way we live. If we really want to stop war, we've got a lot of work to do together when weleave the corner in front of the Federal Building. ---------- Western Front - 1991 February 1 - Page 11 ---------- February 1,1991 LETTERS The Western Front 11 NORML seeks hemp legalization Dear Editor:NORML - the National Organization for the Reform of M arijuana Laws has a chapter located right hereat Western. Members are involved in distributing information about everything from the environment tothe economy to issues of informed choice. THE ENVIRONMENT - Hemp, the marijuana plant, has many uses. Hemp can be used for paper production. In fact, one acre of hemp can replace four acres oftimber and it is harvested annually. Plus, hemp uses only 10-20 percent of the dangerous chemicalsneeded to make paper from wood. Both the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitutionwere originally drafted on hemp. Hemp-made methane, methanol, alcohol and fuel oil could replacepetroleum-based fuel and plastics, thus saving America's oil reserves, reducing the trade deficit, reducing U.S. dependence on foreign oil and protecting the environment. Hemp could replace almost all oil,without any offshore drilling or oil spills. So long, OPEC and oil shortages! Fabrics made from hemp aremore insulating, softer, stronger, more water-absorbent and last many times longer than cotton. Thecanvass sails on generations of ships andthe original Levi jeans were all made of hemp. THE ECONOMY - With some 50,000 commercial uses, Hemp is the most versatile renewable natural resource on theplanet. It is the largest cash crop in America; hemp generates almost four times as much revenue ($41.6 billion per year) as does its closest competitor, com ($13.37 billion), according to the Federal DrugEnforcement Administration. The cost of the federal SL bailout program submitted by President Bush in August, 1989 was $50 billion. "Marijuana" income for 1988 was $41.6 billion. Estimates of the totallegitimate revenues that would be generated by legal commerce in non-smoking Hemp range from 10-100 times that amount. The illegality of marijuana consumes over $5 billion of our tax dollars for lawenforcement each year. But, if regulated, marijuana sales would generate $10-15 billion in annual taxrevenue. These monies could provide therevenue necessary to fund adequate prevention, treatment andrehabilitation programs for ALL DRUGS. QUESTIONS ABOUT ILLEGALITY - Laws against marijuanawere passed a year after the development of a machine to harvest and process hemp so it couldcompete commercially against businesses owned by Hearst, the DuPonts and other powerful families.Studies show that marijuana use, one - does not lead to physical dependence and two - is far lessdestructive to one's health than many of our legal substances.

This is mostly because of the seven proposals. We at the sit-in were concerned about the proposals early on.Will people get behind these? Should we revise and attempt to get support from as much of campus aspossible? They were an expression of some of the most distressed and radicalized here. To acceptthem would be breakaway, even revolutionary, but this seems fitting to the times that they wereconsensed upon. These are meaningful and legitimate ideas on how this campus could truly take astrong stand against this war and all wars. They seem ridiculous to those who are stuck in the mindset of As Is and Only Can Be. These proposals are visionary, suitable for an informed people regarding theprocesses of militarism. The sit-in was successful in bumping these ideas up into people'sconsciousness. Few of the participants thought they would be adopted by the university administration.In fact, our actual goal was simply to receive a response from PresidentMortimer and the faculty senatewhich we did. On a subtle, even unconscious level we were taking it to the top, to a president and toofficials we CAN reach, to try to make some little piece of this world safe and sane. The sit-inserved asarallying point for those of us for whom life as normal was out of the question, an impossibility. Itwas a good place for our frustration, pain and fear. We became family. I will forever remember thosebeautiful, sensitive, loving spirits that I shared those days with. Your tears are holy; your actions blessedwith grace. Thank you.

"Dramatists and Director Merit lt; Laurels for Mama Portrayal , By GEORGE HESS Last Wednesday evening this re-r* porter; had. the pleasure of seeing the WWC student dramatists' pre- * sentation of John Van Oruten's fe play, "I Remember Mama." Traditionally, a dramatic critic is sup- • gt; posed to point out the good (and bad)., points of a presentation. This i* particular rendition defies classification in this respect, however, for each and every performer turned in ^ a sincere and almost flawless performance. ' HOPPE PRAISED .+ First laurels must go to Victor Hoppe, director. Although all the gt; performers had obvious natural talent, the credit for their near-professional polish rightfully belongs to Mr. Hoppe. Without belittling the actors in any way, I can , truthfully say that the presentation paid shining tribute to Mr. ^r Hoppe's skill. I should like to hand a verbal orchid to Evelyn Wulff for her por- 4, trayal of "Mama." She gave the role . a vitality and vigor which, along P with her charming naturalness, did much to make the play a success. Her Norwegian accent was superb. Outstanding in the character role •• of "Mr. Hyde" was Ralph Brown. . His sepulchral voice and exaggerated old-world manners added r greatly to the humor of the scenes in which he played. Besides acting in the play, Brown served as assist- , ant director. In the latter capacity • he contributed the benefits of two year's previous experience in the semi-professional dramatic field. UNCLE CHRIS CONVINCING Thornton Ford was very convincing as "Uncle Chris," the blustering but kind hearted head of the family. Beth Folsom did very well as "Katrin," the oldest daughter and narrator of the story. (Continued on page 8.) WHO WANTS TO BE A DELEGATE? Any student in the school who would be interested in attending the Fourth Annual Pacific Northwest College congress at the University of British Columbia on January 6, 7 and 8, as an official delegate of the Associated Student Body is requested to submit a signed application to the P.N.C.C. committee in the Associated students office before 4 p. m., Monday afternoon. Delegates will have their expenses paid by the ASB to the congress. Two delegates will be selected on the basis of their interest, special qualifications, and knowledge of world affairs in general. Delegates will participate in the forum discussions on the following topics: "The Iron Curtain," "The Berlin Blockade," "The Palestine Problem," "The Chinese Problem," and "Atomic Control.'.' The delegates will be expected to report to the student body upon their return. COLLEGIAN Vol.'XLVII—No. 10 Western Washington College, Bellingham, Washington Fri., Dec. 3, 1948 Pearson, Kent, Radcliffe Elected To Board; Card Playing Out Ann Pearson, Jim Kent, and Bill Radcliffe were selected for the three Board of Control positions in the-election held last Tuesday and Wednesday. A total of 638 votes were cast. Ann Pearson received 293, entitling her to the position of Four-quarter woman. Her two opponents, Betty McLeod and Harriet Lang, received 336 collectively. Jim Kent, who- garnered the position of One-quarter man or woman, was given 316 votes, with his ticket-mates, Margery Ness and June Carrick, "getting 318. Bill Radcliffe was the victor over Jean Selander and Charlie Borden in the race for Four-quarter man or woman, receiving 252 of the ballots cast, while his "ri38 votes was cast. " - The Referendum about card playing in the lounge asking if the Board's decision should be upheld or not, was given a vote of: Upheld 495, Repealed 130, the result being that the decision will be upheld. JIM KENT BiARD RESTORES COFFEE PRICE Lounge to be Underwritten Until Investigation Completed * gt;• Qoffee in the student lounge shall cost five cents until the Board of Control completes an investigation ** of the situation in the student :• lounge. This decision was reached at the regular Wednesday meeting * in the ASB office, December 1. jl Gus J»agels, ASB president, stated that the price of coffee*had been ,.'wdse|^bjg|Mr. Louis Earle, lounge ' nianafer because the students had not coeverated in keeping the -lounge » clean a i ^ t i to absolutely neces|Hi^ that the loung^ be kept inun^pula^e in order to meet health reqiUre- It was pointed out, however, that the price had been raised without the knowledge, or consent of trie hoard. vTbe board realized that because the students had not cooperated in keeping the lounge clean that Mr. Earle had been forced to employ extra help, and was not able to meet the increased costs. Dr. Lucy Kangley reported that the board paid $80 per month to support the lounge before the installation of the coffee bar and thus far we have lost only $64 per month. The board then decided to make a thorough ^investigation of the entire loungie problem and while this is in progress the boa/d will underwrite any josses mcurred ,by the lounge by selling five cent coffee. Ruth Soderstrom, AWS president, requested $30 from the rboard for the College Day conference that is to be held here in the near future. Neil Johnson inquired if the board had any space to house the club libraries. The board suggested that the administration be contacted, they did not have any space. Mrs. Ruth Burnet appeared before the board to give the financial report on the Profile and Homecoming books. . , •.' Gordon Sanstead reported that the Pacific Northwest College congress was to meet at the University of British Columbia and wanted to know if the board would appoint delegates to the.: conference. The board felt there was an overlapping in some of the conferences and wOuld appoint a committee to look into the.affair. Art Runestrand presented the Co-op constitution to the board, but because of the lateness of the hour, action on the issue was delayed. The board adjourned at 6:15 p. m. ;.;*/vns ANN PEARSON BILL RADCLIFFE One of our local boys, Bill Radcliffe was born in Bellingham twenty-three years ago. He attended the local high school and at present is a third quarter junior. A veteran of two year's service, in the navy (as a "desert sailor" in Nevada, Bill says), he is taking Teacher Training with Art as his major. ANN PEARSON Another Bellinghamite is Ann Pearson, who lives at Huntoon Drive. Born twenty-two year ago, Ann has lived here all her life. She, too, is a graduate of Bellingham High. Her activities include being treasurer of AWS, a former four-quarter Board member, and secretary of Valkyrie. Ann was married on ~ August 24, 1947, and plans to graduate in 1950. She is taking Teacher Training. JIM KENT Although he was born in Montana, Jim Kent "has lived twenty-two, of his, twenty-three years in WasMngton-rSeattle in particular: He attended Lincoln high in Se- BILL RADCLD7FE attle and went from there" to the University of Washington. Kent arrived at Western last fall and became a member of the "W" club. His favorite sports are football and track. He is a veteran of two year's service in the Air Corps. A senior in Teachers' Education, Jim plans to be married to Lois King sometime during this month. Assemblies Meld Assemblies held today for the AWS and Norsemen were in room 239 and the auditorium, respectively.

All Coffee Drinkers Should Applaud Boards Action If it isn't one thing, it's another. No sooner did the student-body settle the controversy of card-playing in the student lounge, than they are faced, or rather were faced, with a new problem—.10 coffee. Here is an analysis of the present situation: Monday, Mr. Louis Earle, manager of the co-op and the lounge, raised the hitherto .05 price of coffee to .10—carrying out his threat to do so which was sounded some weeks ago. Tuesday, the student coffee drinkers, finding themselves suddenly confronted with real inflation, began to object. Wednesday, the Board of Control acted to restore the price of coffee to its former level. Because of the need for employing extra help to keep the lounge clean, the lounge coffee bar suffered a deficit of $128.92 in October and November, or the sum total of $64.46 per month. The Board, in restoring the former price, assumed responsibility for the deficit but since the Board formerly paid out $80 a month for lounge upkeep, it was still money ahead. So while the coffee drinkers are once more satisfied with, anti-inflationary controls, the Board is probing into the situation thoroughly with the vigor of an un-American activities committee. Lovers of the "golden liquid" will be toasting the health of the Board for their prompt action. If Western Washington college had a "Shadow" or a "Sherlock Holmes" in its employ, it would soon be known who stole "Victor"— the bushy, defiant Viking warrior who stood guard at Homecoming. "Victor" disappeared at the "W" club's Homecoming ball. Because thievery is not condoned and because the Viking concert band needs "Victor" as a backdrop for the winter concert season when the band goes on tour... Please return "him." 6 iOlViHG Like Money in the Bank . . . Bill Radcliffe, artisto magnifico (pretty darn good) is getting his stuff on the market these days. To date, he has the Washington State Coop magazine as buyers for his aesthetic covers—pictures, a' course. And you probably remember Nita Clothier—creative writer and dramatist supreme. A feature-length story of hers is being seriously considered by an eastern magazine, the "American Pen." Looks like education pays off. Gonna get me some, ah reckon. Wahhhh! Notre Dame thinks it has the first "maternity fund" ever raised at a men's college. The campaign has a goal of $5,000 to be used to defray expenses of married vets attending the college. A hundred births are expected in the next seven months to the 500 couples living there. Ugh! Redmen Head Red . . . The placid countenances of 25 Oklahoma Indians were slightly diffused recently when they got lost in the woods they are traditionally supposed to know. They were returning from a tribal council weiner^ roast. You realize, Jeffrey, this means war!.

Probably true of all branches of the service . . with Pagels . . . somebody shoulda told Vance Nelon; he enlisted in the army last Wednesday. Spirits of Western . . . Some sort of movement should be started to get back that plywood statue of Vic the Vik the junior class donated to the school. Student's went to a lot of trouble to obtain the plywood, the artist, paints and gt; •• the time to give the school a little spirit. Too bad a few students (probably loaded with spirits) decided that their room needed a little cheering up. Esquire magazine, for the information of these shortsighted students, are on sale at any local drug store and the students should derive far more desirable speculation than Vic could provide. I know, I know, this column should be rechristened "Griping old." Home Ec Major . . . A sign in a gas station-cafe outside of Lyman reads: "Eat here and get gas." Need What the Joneses Have? In Albuquerque, New Mexico, a shop-owner hung out a unique sign: "Antiques made and repaired." Ah, nothing like a custom-built antique loungin' around the house when the Vanderbilts show up. The reason for the ten-cent coffee? Only because students couldn't seem to develop enough muscular coordination to firmly grip the cup, walk over and put it on the counter on their way out. Maybe someone should call signals. ' Revolutionary Clan Begives World A Radical Heir By JOE KING Ego.ergo, I come from a long line of revolutionists. For centuries my ancestors havtf been known as the very instigators of progression. The title "Starters of Beliefs" was the term by some people knew them, but most just referred to "those so-and-so's who are always starting something." Practically every generation of the Jan has produced a noteworthy, if not distinguished, revolutionist. Why even today we are known as the most revolting family in town. ' But it is more for practical reasons than for_tradition that I want to suggest a brand new idea. A holiday. Not the regular rotten old run of holiday, you understand, but something different, novel, satisfying. Instead of the ordinary like Thanksgiving, let's set aside a day in January, say, when the weather is at its worst, upon which everyone blasts loose. Celebrate On . . . oh, maybe January 28 (that's a nice lousy sounding date), the whole country will celebrate "I Will Not Be a Hypocrit Day." Hypo-crasy, in any form, will be banned for twenty-four hours. If you want to kick the kindly old lady who lives next door, go ahead; beat your wife, fine; put gravel in the kid's oatmeal, great; poison the neighbor's well-water, oh my, such possibilities. This'll be your day. Nothing phoney about it. If the street car conductor says, good morning, slap him in the mouth. It's raining and he knows it. That kid with the police whistle, bounce him on the sidewalk. You've wanted to for a long time. And when you're holding a chair for the bleach-topped blonde, ho-ho-ho. Go ahead and do it. Look Honestly Yes, this will be the day. Piles of late mothers-in-law, used car dealers still smoldering at the stake, nothing left. but big, high fences, fences, everywhere fences. Mercenary "medicos" leave the hospitals, Salvationists swap their tamborines for beer and everyone builds a fence. I know, I know. Baloney. Why should we build real fences when the ones we have now are just as good. And why put an end to hypocrisy when people have so much fun with it. Anyway, Christmas is coming and 'tis time of the year to shelve all troubles and prejudices. That splendid season when we all break down and look at each other honestly.

If you gentle readers, disagree jytth anything or everything said in this column please don't undertake'jto punch the writer in the nose.

And besides, your observer's* king-size probiscus is quite allergic to being belted around. Gripe, Gripe Now for the gripe paragraphs: Firstly, this writer has been conducting an apparently unsuccessful one man campaign to get some kind of trash receptacles placed outside the outside doors to all the main buildings. Maybe if some more students showed some interest in this project the Board of Control would take action. How about hearing from some, of you on this subject? Secondly, why isn't some action taken to fill, in those tank traps in the road, leading past the south parking lot? Or are they being left there in anticipation of the next war? Oh, well, if the swimming classes outgrow the pool they can always adjourn to those water filled chuck-holes—the water is deeper there anyhow. Who Was to Blame? Your observer's tender ears have been assailed recently by much cussing and discussing of the hike in * coffee prices in the lounge. "Why couldn't they have done this,; instead? Or that?" everyone wants -M to know. One intrepid individual even suggested that the coffee bai gt;- gt; be abolished entirely and a Hap room installed. Said he could get a*" glass of beer anywhere for the sam,e^_ price as a cup of coffee "-in* the lounge — ten cents — and that he\~ never did like'coffee anyway.

The meeting was held in the club room of Edens hall, Wednesday, December 1. Problems discussed by the group were faculty supervision, the use of profanity, house news, and news coverage. Harry Pagels, Louella Haggen, Bonnie Pasley, Pat Somers, and Frank Adams presented policies of seven professional papers which they had investigated. The general concensus of opinion was that letters to the editor, if accepted, aregprinted verbatim. Profanity and vulgarity aire kept out of the news columns except as used in quotes. Some papers have attorneys to review any questionable material to see if it is libelous or slanderous. Public opinion and business policy act as effective checks on newspapers. House news again came in for discussion, with Shirley Dickenson proposing that each living unit, including the veterans groups, be urged to gather social and personal items weekly. The group expressed opposition to any resumption of last years house gossip columns. Suggestions were made for getting more student names in the Collegian. Future meetings may be scheduled to continue the discussion. PJDENT POLL REVEALS FRANCO FEELINGS By BEV GORDON Should Franco of Spain be giv- #? e h recognition?" was the subject M{ fom fcqulring reporter used this ^^ast'^eefc;" Judging from the stu- VIAdents'"answers, he is really on the rmrocks; for almost all seem to be in £; alfreement that we should have Ai ^o^ninig°tb-dd with the gentleman '- from SpaihT _ . .Wnto asked by me if Franco ^nshqutd!W given recognition, Glenn i .u«*f 'A pUt; l t t h I s w a y . «NO, i don^t3 think so because, how can we advocate democracy when we make an alliance with others whose ideal-ogy is completely opposite." The next pollee, Ken Blakely, made this statement, "No, his policies are very undemocratic. His past reputation In collaboration with the Axis in World War II renders him incapable of conducting a modern civilized country in a fashion befitting the traditions of a cultured nation." John Hill, next on my list of the inquired, made these remarks: "No, Franco's communist tendencies do not provide a stable basis for him to be a leader in a country where the population is .in dire need of political, social, and economic uplift. The present conditions in Spain warrant a complete change-over to bring the spirits of the people from the mental depressions of the past wars to a level equalling that of the rest of the world. As I went along table hopping in the lounge, Herbert Spearin' gave me his views on the other side of the question. "Yes,, I think we should. We must ally with them against the evils which now threaten the world. They have fascism as a purely domestic situation; they have not tried to spread it over the world," was the way he expressed himself. Seated nearby was Paul Willet who made this remark: "Recognition of Franco's .Spain by the United States would mean an alliance with fascism. I definitely oppose both aid recognition to a man who so closely resembles the late Adolf Hitler." Expounding his idea of recognizing Franco quite emphatically was Glenn Cany who said, "No! The United States should help free the people of Spain." "No, because he isnt trusted by the people of Spain," was the answer given me by Dick Grimes. Drawing my poll to a close, this last minute idea was picked up in great haste from Montag Tortz, "Yes, because he is against communism." On the lighter side, were these two profound statements: Neil. Leone: "Well, it's a good spaghetti"; and Leroy Dixon: "Yes because there are lots of pretty senoritas in Spain."

Deep consideration of the facts show that these 161 people and many more will have another chance to roll in some money. The sweepstakes has ben extended into the basketball season. Because of the number of games played during the season, the amount will be raised only one dollar per conference game. To make it a little more simple, the prophet planning to win much come within five points of each score. This sweepstakes will begin as soon as the first conference games is played. Frazier Cops Position On Conference Squad Big Jack Frazier, the pivot of the Western line, led the way in the balloting for the center spot on the Evergreen Conference all star team. Jack, who starred in football, basketball and baseball at Bellingham high before coming to Western, has lettered in football during his stay at the hilltop school, and has participated in many other activities. This year Frazier gained the plaudits of rival coaches' and players for his outstanding work as a defen sive line backer, where he often played the entire sixty minutes. Jack seemed to have a sixth sense and time and again he was waiting at the spot the play was aimed for. Western fans will be glad to know-that Jack will be back for more football with the Vikings next fall. The voting for the guard spots on the All Conference team produced a four way tie, and one of the four was Bill Currier, a transfer student, who won honorable mention in the Little All America selections last year. Bill made up for his lack of size with his speed, and often worked as the fifth man in the enemy back-field. Like Jack Frazier, Bill plays baseball. Last spring, his first at Western, Bill was a member of the Viking varsity. He also plays basketball, but his first love is the gridiron^ Bill, too, will be back again next fall. Jerry Karnofski and Norm Hash gained quite a bit of attention in the poll, and as a consequence they were named on the league's All Star team as alternate backs. ; Art Svidran was given credit for his work when he was picked T gt;y United Press, as a second team fullback in their All. Pacific Northwest team. ''-!•••'.: , • ,*••: - ^The Viks had a better than average season, winning five and losing four. After all, how many teams win more than they lose? Next fall, with the above mentioned all stars, and the promising crop of freshmen from this year, the Viks may be in a contending position at the end of the season. Here's how the All Conference team looks: Sam Adams of Whitworth and Vernon Morris of Pacific Lutheran at ends; Hank Pond of CPS and Lee Hake of Central at tackles; Bob Osgood of Central at one guard spot, and Warren Wood of CPS, Don Ros-bach of Eastern, Jack Carbone of PLC, and Bill Currier of Western, tied for the other; Jack Frazier of Western, center, and Bud Thrapp of Eastern, Vern Tucker of Whitworth, Mel Light of CPS and Rip Raappana of Eastern, backfield men.

The only "A" league game scheduled, Mathes vs. Bear Cats, was won by forfeit by the Bear Cats. Hospice remains the only undefeated team in any of the leagues. Team standing as of December 1 are: Boys Peek i^i Fern Athletics During a PE class this past week some "athletic" boys were taking an illegal peak at the girls basketball progress, we hope! From the look on their faces (ear-linking grins) you could judge that the general attitude was that of hopelessness and laughter. But if the prejudiced opinion that boys are "tops" in athletics could be done away with,,you would notice that the girls real?y jdo play basketball. Mary Pagels has a right arm shot that seldom fails and when she J s backed up by fast forwards like Pat Smith, Gail Dillon, and Jesse Isom, it forms a combination hard to beat. On the guarding end Ruth, Wright and Josephine Vezzetti keep any opposing forwards troubled. Louise Oliveri, besides playing good basketball is also "graceful" and "dramatic" on the floor. Mrs. Ciszek is having some of the girls, who possess a respectable knowledge of the rules, referee the practice games. A LEAGUE W L Pet.

Take one look ' at that Evergreen Conference and you'll see why. The Conference emerges this year as one of the strongest in the country. With Ray Scott, Stan Peterson, Dick Ravenhorst, Jerry Starr, Tom Green, Jack Ross, Larry ;-•Slovek, Bob Cline, Tom Oswald, Dick Patterson, Vern Whitney, Hal Nor-gaard, Wally Green, and Bob Wicks backing up the Western spirit on the trip to Seattle this week-end for their double tilts with Seattle University '' and Pacific College, the majority of us will just have to sit back and wait fof'the outcome. As Coach MacDonald puts it, "The team is shaping up "fairly well, but will need a IKW practice games before league competition. "New men who have shown fairly good promise are W. Green, Wieks, Gar-orison, Patterson, Norgaard and Ravenhorst." Bill Garrison is ruled ineligible because of attending CPS last year. Following this week's game, the'Viks will journey to the University of Washington for a tilt on December 10, and to an Invitational Tournament at Pacific Lutheran college on December 11. • * * University of British Columbia seems to be having no small amount of trouble in getting their sports calendar lined up. One of the requirements for league membership in the Evergreen conference is full participation in the entire sports calendar. The Canadians are willing to go . t he limit in all save football, where they suggest they be permitted to trim ? their league schedule to four games. The matter has been placed under the supervision of the conference athletic directors. * * * Congratulations to Jack Frazier for being chosen all-conference center to the Evergreen league. Also a bouquet of nasturtiums-to Jerry Karnofski and Norm Hash for receiving honorable mention. Believe me, those boys really worked for what they got.

Western follows this encounter with another extra-curricular fray the following evening against Seattle Pacific college. The tentative starting line-up for the Blue and White has Stan Peterson and Jerry Starr, forwards; Dick Ravenhorst, center; and Tom Green and Jack Ross holding down the guard spots. Ray Scott, rangy forward will make the trip but will not play due to a broken nose. Ray's loss is going to be felt keenly against " I Sbteland Offers ' Entertainments; iPriyate Parties .

One month on the sands and eleven on the rocks." 'Not Long'Writer Pleads For Help, Deliverance Dear Sir: I am one of the less fortunate individuals of Western Washington college who is forced to drag myself, with my feet, up the steep hills of High street, to the college campus. As I am not an experienced mountain climber, I find it pretty grim when the rain is pelting down, and the wind is howling around my earmuffs, trying to make me late for class. Every few seconds I hear a swish, and some monstrous automobile sails past, covering my already soaked being with muddy spray. More often than not, there is only one occupant, namely the driver, sitting so smug and comfortable, not bothering to guess my plight. What I want to know is this: Why won't my fellow Westernites pick me up and give me a ride? Where is the spirit of cooperation at WWC? Is it dead? Frankly I'm beginning to think so. In the meantime I am dying a slow agonizing death on the hills of High street. Breathlessly yours, Not Long for This World.

Mr. O'Brien said that for the first time in its three year history The Writer will be released with illustrations of the three groups: poetry, short stories, and essays. He then went on to say that this could not be done without the help received from Miss Ruth Kelsey and students of the art department.

M.; • Identifying: four types of relationships regarding- school-community cooperation in war time Dr. Stephen M. Corey of the University of Chicago, made his initial appearance at the third annual WWC summer educational conference this morning. - Dr. Corey, in his address on "A Meaningful School-Community Program in War Time," outlined the four types as follows: (1) schools must keep their communities informed of what -. — - — is going on in the schools; (2) schools must provide to their communities services of a wide variety of types; (3) every attempt must be made to develop cooperative community school planning of educational programs; and (4) educators must use the community and its facilities as learning laboratories and as a source for learning materials. Speaking further on his second point Dr. Corey stated that we would not want our children exploited or advantage taken of them when they contributed to the war effort. "It seems to me that even in war time the school should not lose sight of its major obligation; namely, to provide youngsters with experiences that will enable them to grow in understanding," Dr. Corey remarked. WORK IN COMMUNITY Going further into the fourth type, Dr. Corey said, "... the sooner we can acquaint (the children) with community problems and methods of arriving at solutions to these Continued on Page Two Ruby Dahlin, Maxihe Dunfee, Visiting Instructors; Praise New Building By IRENE FYHN • Both enthusiastic about the new training school building, visiting Campus School instructors this summer are Miss Ruby Dahlin, third grade, and Miss Maxine Dunfee, fourth. This is the first time either of the two instructors has been in Bellingham, although Miss Dahlin has visited many times on the coast. For Miss Dunfee this is the first time she has been north of Portland, although she also has made visits to the Pacific coast. 'The new training school is hon- DR. STEPHEN GOREY estly the most gorgeous thing I have everseen;" isJkfissDahlin's.opinion of the new building. The physical set-up here is- really ideal, It's the latest thing in elementary architecture." Miss Dunfee comes to WWC from the University of Iowa demonstration school, where she taught the fourth grade, and is especially enthusiastic about the scenery of Bellingham. "Everything that is green is so much greener here, and the mountains are different from what I'm used to also.". DAHLIN FROM MINNESOTA Miss Dahlin is a member of the faculty at the demonstration school at the University of Minnesota and like all Minnesotans she is an avowed football fan. Both the teachers stated that the set-up in the demonstration school was a little different from that here. In both of their situations they have observations every day, and a demonstration lesson regularly on some specific subject that the technique teacher wishes to have demonstrated. Many and varied are the hobbies that, occupy the spare time of both the visiting instructors. Miss Dunfee expressed her interest in her many hobbies by saying, "I'm always interested in trying something that I have never done before." HOBBIES VARIED At present Miss Dunfee is experimenting with water colors, while she also finds time for her other hobbies, tap dancing and knitting. She also combined her fourth of July excursion to Vancouver with a hobby interest by purchasing an English cup and saucer to add to her collection of antique china. Miss Dahlin's hobbies also are varied, with her interest centering on music, gardening and reading, as well as her passion for football games in their season. After summer school is completed Miss Dahlin is returning directly to Minneapolis where, "I'm going to do lots of swimming. I haven't had a chance to swim very much yet this summer." (Continued on Page Four) Inter-American Relations Meet To Convene Here July 13-15 • That understanding of the Americas by Americans can come about through education is the belief of the conference-leaders of the Inter-American Relations study to be conducted July 13, 14, 15 at WWC.

Molding of Future Soldiers Teachers' Role, Says DuShane By EARL ECKERT • "Molding and shaping the soldiers of tomorrow; that is. the role of education in winning this war." So said Dr. Donald Du Shane Wednesday as he addressed the Institute of Professional Relations at WWC. Because of this responsibility, the teachers must now come to the defense of education in a democracy. The teacher is now preparing the voters for the period 15 years from now. Stating that the real test of democracy will come after this war, Dr. DuShane believes that the teachers are the ones to prepare for it. He exclaimed further that the ideal situation would have the pftiblic so interested in the welfare of their children that they would fight for education, but when they don't then the teachers have to carry on the battle. Dr. Du Shane said that the fight will not be an easy one. He told of groups which are trying to destroy the confidence which the public now has in education. He cited cases of groups saying that the schools should be closed now so as to lend greater effort to the war. Accusations of being Communistic also have been^hurled at the teachers. Because of military demand, more lucrative positions, and other reas- (Continued on Page Four) '42 Klipsuns Slated For Men in Service • Plans for distributing the 1942 Klipsun to WWC students in the armed forces were announced by- President W.

"Only a practice alert!" the officer said, putting out to sea again, changing it's course somewhat. Mrs. Dawson sought to be patient, as she realized that the shift in course would make her later than ever for the summer term of school at WWC—she was several days late already. Drawn to Sitka by the presence of her husband and son and his family, Mrs. Abi Dawson had found conditions there strained, especially during the time of the Dutch Harbor attack; no news came from any place, except from the threatening Japanese and once in a while from Moscow. All communication is by shortwave, but there they were, blacked out in every sense of the word. On the alert, women and children would take to the hills, feeling greater security in the green trees than from plywood houses. . As she spoke of these circumstances, I could picture her quiet manner, as she aided others to safety. She was small and angular and looked as if she would be deft at handling people confused by such an emergency. Other details of life in Alaska were falling fast. Big bombers in flight to unknown places, troop transports stopping briefly, defense activities of all kinds carried the theme of war to the regular inhabitants of the town. Women worked rather than stay confined to their homes under black-out regulations; men formed their territorial guards—with the women itching to take to guns as Well. Life among the fishermen, defense workers, women and children must be kept as normal as possible, with methods of recreation set up by the churches and organizations. Fresh food was scarce, and the water supply in town was endangered by one week of dry weather. "Surely you must be happy to reach U.S. proper, Mrs. Dawson. Flies Over Europe Are you planning to teach in Washington this year, is that why you are here?" I, asked. "Sitka is the place for me next, year—and for as long as I can be of help up there," Mrs. Dawson said as she straightened her shoulders. "I . shall. be able to work at one thing or another, teach in either the grades or the high school, as I am needed, besides having the pleasure of being with my family." "Is this return to teaching, then, a war-measure, Mrs. Dawson?" I asked, wondering at her youthful vigor. "Not teaching again," she said, stressing the word slightly, "I've kept up my teaching career out of necessity, through the many years of my husband's illness. During these years I maintained my family that way, but now that I don't have to, I want to, for the sake of doing what I can in the community where my grand-children will be growing up!" "I hope the. kind of work which you are taking at WWC will .help you up there," I said. "I'm* working for my three-year elementary, and incidentally, coming back after thirty-two years! Thirty-two years ago I stayed in the old Edens hall, mind!" "Happy homecoming, then, Mrs. Dawson," I said, and to myself I added, "not only here, but a happy return to Sitka, for you and your hardiness of soul!" and I left the. lunch-table in Edens hall, where I had fallen into this interesting conversation. Workshop Scene of Feverish Activity As Groups Take Field Trips, Picnic By JOAN CAMPBELL • With the end of the quarter too well in view Workshoppers were in a fever .of activity this week. Field trips, luncheons, an all-Workshop picnic, to say nothing of individual problem work and con-' ferences kept participants going at a dizzy pace. Two field trips have been taken by the major work groups working with Dr. Aubrey Kaan in the field of elementary curriculum. Both trip were to Sedro-Woolley, where the group is studying data gathered in an Upper Skagit valley survey last year by the State Planning Council. The group is working toward the adaptation of this material for use in the curriculum of the Sedro-Woolley schools. E. L. Edge and John Nordmark; of the Washington State Planning council, and Muncaster, made a special trip to the --College last week to confer with the Workshop group on the material and its possible use in the schools. Dr. Haan,- whose special interest field is the community school, will continue this study during the coming school year, and will work closely with Sedro-Woolley in planning and building toward a community-cen- . tered school program: In connection with this same study, all interested Workshop members are being given an unusual opportunity to actively participate in an actual community survey, which is being made in Snohomish county now by the State Planning council. The -group will work in Monroe during the day and will sit in on a meeting of the planning council in the evening. It Is , hoped a large group of students will be interested and able to take part in this unique experience. ALL GROUPS BUSY The primary curriculum group is working on a philosophy of education. They expect to put their findings on record, reports and application blanks into some permanent form. Dr. Haan met with the group to discuss records and reports. He gave practical suggestions on check lists and anecdotal records, and on the new type of report card. This group has observed in the third grade and in kindergarten. The intermediate major work group met with Dr. Woodring last week to disfcuss problems relating to the handling of over-age children, those who are emotionally unstable, and those who are handicapped by unfavorable home conditions. The group also had done considerable observing in the Campus school. The junior high school mathematics group with Miss Edith Sifton as adviser, sponsored a showing of* five motion pictures on precision measurements last Tuesday, July 7. The uses of the micrometer, vernier, and the steel rule were explained as the pictures were shown. On Thursday, July 9. measurements with fixed gauge and standard indicators were shown. The language-arts group under Miss Maxine Nortrirup is engaged in'~ a broad program of study including spelling, short story, essay, poetry, drama, and oral and written composition. PICNIC AT GOOSEBERRY Priminent among the week's major recreational activities was the all-Workshop picnic at Goos'e-berry Point last night. Planned by the recreation committee, this was the final social function of the congenial group which has worked and played together tfiis summer. This week's program has been given over to the educational conference meeting and luncheon, in which all Workshoppers have taken an active part and interest. Next LIEUT. DON BELL, Western Washington college graduate and captain of the 1940 -football team recently informed friends at WWC that he was stationed with a bombing squadron "somewhere in England.' more conference (Continued from Page Two) At the Thursday morning conclave Victor H. Hoppeof the WWC Speech department read Dr. Corey's address on "Learning That Makes a Difference." Dr. Corey was unable to attend Thursday's meetings because the Perry command of the U. S. Army took over his plane in Butte, Mont., Wednesday evening. Thursday afternoon Ernest Campbell took Dr. Corey's place on the program and spoke regarding the duties of teachers in helping the child's school life. SUPERINTENDENTS MEET Meeting in conjunction, with the educational confefehce~the'7past two days have been the county superintendents of the state. Clare Men-denhall, president of the County Superintendents' association, presided at the noon luncheon on Thursday. Miss Maud Rasmussen, visiting instructor oh the campus, presented an address on reading. This morning at S a. m. the superintendents met in room 105 for their annual summer business session. week's schedule will be well-filled with the Inter-American Relations study conference, July 13, 14, and 15, with Paul Pinckney and Miss Delia Goetz. PLANNING MEETING HELD Meeting once each week is a steering committee or planning council consisting of all Workshop Staff members and a representative number of participants. The group acts as a clearing house for problems and questions arising in the smaller work groups/ and plans a schedule for each succeeding week. It is a democratic body, with Dr. Paul Grim, Workshop director, presiding as. informal chairman. All participants are asked to attend at least one planning meeting during the session, but they are all open to any participants who are interested.

Dear Mr. Phillips : :W May I call to your attention an error in last weefc's Collegian-regarding Mr. Bushell—he is not head of the Music department at the college. There are no heads of departments at the college. Each department has a chairman and I have been the chairman of the Music department for the past eight years. The names of these chairmen may be obtained from Miss Church in the President's office. Sincerely yours, Nils Boson. Donald DuShane Predicts Sharp Increase In Teachers' College Enrollment The WWCollegian regrets making the aforementioned error and will take extreme pains to see that it doesn't happen again. ea,m pfi Sometimes it's nice to know what's going on in other colleges all over the country. These are bits gathered from newspapers of other American colleges. * * A non-credit engineering course is being inaugurated in San Jose State College this summer. Training will consist of 200 hours. There is no tuition charge. * * It seems that EWC is having its troubles about their social life. They've dropped their activities for the summer. Might this be due to male scarcity or money scarcity, jiaaybe? * ---* And while on the subject of the male situation, it might be said that Sam Houston State Teachers college reports its ratio of men to women is 1:2.4. * * San Jose students are being asked to save scraps of crayon, colored paper, etc., for the use of the small Japanese children in the assembly centers. * ^ Little quips gathered from here and there may help to raise your spirit level. "Why did you marry such a homely man?" "He asked me." Exchange. * * TIME Time tells on a man—especially a good time. Not only does beauty fade, but. it leaves a record upon the face as to what becomes of it. Campus Crier, CWC DEFENSE DITTIES She lived out in the country, The answer to his desires, But he couldn't take her dancing, Because his flivver had no tires. By JOYCE WATERBURY Predicting a sharp increase in enrollment in teacher's training institutions next fall, Dr. Donald Du Shane, principal speaker at the Professional Relations institute Wednesday displayed his optimism for the teaching future. While strolling on the campus in an after-lunch leisurely fashion, impressively rugged Du Shane amplified his statement my saying that "it's an economic law that when people realize a shortage in a profession, and their assurance of position upon graduation, they are going to train for those openings which, to them, are especially enticing." COMPARE SYSTEMS The grey-haired educational crusader continued his conversation ' then, by drawing a comparison with other sections which spoke very favorably of Washington's educational provisions for the protection of its teaching profession, and educational standards. '*You have the teachers' retire-men plan, the tenure of contract, and disability allotment, as well as many other means of protection. Then, too, he added with a friendly smile which showed his readiness to give praise where praise was due, "your state is among the outstanding states in the Union in educational progressiveness." Rubbing his hand across his face in a habitual manner, Dr. DuShane said of his job, "I spend about one-third of my time as secretary to the National Commission for the defense of Democracy Through Education of the National Education association traveling- through the country helping teachers' groups to promote better public relations and Summer Students Here for Definite Purpose Says Kuder • Summer school students at Western Washington, college are here to fulfill definite requirements in teaching qualifications, according to Dr. M. S. Kuder, registrar. This year the State department has made a special regulation whereby last year's sophomores by going five consecutive quarters instead of six, are to be issued war emergency certificates at the end of summer school next year. There are now thirteen people in school working for war emergency certificates on eleven quarters of work. Many of the older teachers are returning to the field in order to make use of the opportunity to teach. Most of them have life certificates and are enrolled in "Special Problems in Teaching" a course devised chiefly for people who have been out for some time. Students from the 1937 and 1939 classes are back for renewals of five-year and three-year certificates respectively. Another group is completing requirements for principals' credentials. This requires twelve hours in fields such as Curriculum, Methods, Guidances, etc. There also are a number of teachers from other states who are candidates for certificates through the State department for which they are filling out credits. A few students are taking courses to fulfill prerequisites to admittance in other fields or in other colleges. WWC has made an appeal to freshmen encouraging them to begin immediately, as there will be a definite need for these teachers in the future. However, an extremely small number have responded. Other colleges have experienced the same situation. PATRONIZE OUR ADVERTISERS aiding them with other problems which face them. The rest- of my time is spent in Washington ,D. C, where our offices are." Then, with the expression of tiredness creep- DR. DONALD DU SHANE ing through his mask of genuine interest, Dr. Du Shane estimated his speaking average while on these tours at two lectures a day. NO DRAFTEES Returning the conversation to a luncheon topic, the educational specialist firmly stated his negative opinion concerning the possibility that male teachers who are drafted will ever be inducted into the army; given a rank, and then returned to their former teaching position as their part in the national war effort. With this note of negativism, the friendly educator turned to join the other leaders in the educational field as they left to attend another of the institute meetings. Students Mai! From \b States • Where do the new students attending Western Washington College this summer hail from? As taken from the records, three-fourths of them are transfer students from other colleges. There are 51 new students representing 10 states and Alaska which has 4, California 2, Idaho 5, Illinois 2, Iowa 1, Maryland 1, Montana 9, Nebraska 1, North Dakota 6, Oregon 19, and South Dakota 1. more on instructors (Continued from Page One) Miss Dunfee is; returning to her -^home in Red Oak, Iowa, via Los Angeles, Salt Lake City, and Denver. Both teachers expressed pleasure at having worked here this summer, Miss Dunfee stating, "I can honestly say that this is a place where both faculty and students alike go out of their way to make one enjoy it here. I can't seem, to believe that the time has gone by so fast." Social Attitudes Of Collegiates Psycholocjzed By LELA KAUFMAN Do you like to see women put on their warpaint in public? If you are a typical college youth, (Do they still have those things?) you definitely don't, while if you are a member of the fairer sex you don't care so much. That is, if statistics are to be believed.. Women, on the other hand, frown much more strongly upon the man who expects a kiss during his first date with a girl than do his fellow men. Then, too, women think it more undesirable to become engaged frequently, whereas " men think swearing in front of a woman is a more grevious fault. Women are more annoyed than men by the person who spills personal confidences, especially if she is a woman. Men rate the individual who can argue without becoming disagreeable on the same high plane as the one with clean-fingernails, while the coeds strongly favor the clean hands. These and many other conclusions, such as high approval by both sexes toward the girls who keep their stockings pulled up, may be read in detail in the Journal of Social Psychology, August, 1941, under the title of "Comparison of the Attitudes of College Men with the Attitudes of College Women in Regard to Fellowship Behavior" - by T. M. Carter. more pro conflab (Continued from Page One) ons, education also is faced with the problem of teacher shortage. PLEADS WITH TEACHERS Because of the influence which the teacher has and because of the trying test through which education is now going, Dr. Du Shane calls upon the teachers to do everything in their power to insure the growth of education. To carry on this fight, he believes that every teacher will have to sacrifice in many ways if education is to survive. Teachers willxhave to forget the possibility of criticism, and not be afraid of a little talk, because they will have to get out to meet and speak with the public. The teacher will have to come out of the classroom more and take the risk of influencing the public more. The educator must appeal to the public and convince the people on the subjects of education. 25% CARRY LOAD Each individual will have to do the work under the supervision of a national organization. Dr. Du Shane feels it is really unprofessional when teachers will sit back and let 25 per cent ol-the members carry the burden of finance and influence. This fight requires an all out effort on the part of every one in the profession. This means that the teacher must take a stand; Mountaineers Pick Ice oh Bakers Dome TRY THE CO-OP First If the Students Use It We Have It. • Just before the sun began to rise last Saturday PPPPP

The one-and-a-half year, $6.5 million project is only a few days behind schedule and should be ready for occupationJune 5, Nelson said. Originally, Seattle-based contractors Gall, Landau and Young projected a finishdate of May 29. After Gall, Landau and Young finish, more contractors will move in and install labequipment, telephones and furnishings. "The contractors are supposed to be finished; the first week in June," said Paul Rainey, technology department chairman. "That's when the other contractorswill come in and finish it up." Eighteen contract changes have been authorized, increasing the cost ofthe building by about $325,000 since contractors began March 3, 1986, said Renee Roberts, Western'scapital fiscal manager. Contract changes are basic modifications (additions or reductions) to thecontract usually dealing with money, time or materials. The changes are negotiated by the contractorthrough the Ar-chitectual Office and ultimately signed by Don Cole, vice president for Business andFinancial Affairs, said Jack Cooley, university budget director. Both parties, the university and thecontractor, must approve any alteration. "In a project of this size, there are always changes that occur,"he said. "(The changes) are relatively small whe. .compared with the whole project," Roberts said. Thenew building will house the Vehicle Research Institute, industrial technology, industrial design,electronics engineering technology, manufacturing engineering technology and the industrial artsprograms, Rainey said. Visual, communications education and photography classes will remain in theArt and Technology building. Currently, all technology programs are housed in the Art/Tech buildingand the basements of Bond Hall, Miller Hall and the Environmental Studies building. When phase one iscomplete, a more direct walkway linking Red Square with Arntzen Hall will be opened in front of the new tech building, Nelson said. The state legislature appropriated $6.5 million to phase one in the 1985-87 budget, and it now is working on phase two,'$3.5 million for renovation of the Art/Tech building, newequipment for both facilities and extra funds to finish three rooms in the new tech building, Nelsonsaid. In addition, the university has asked for an additional $1 million for more equipment for the newbuilding. If the legislature says no to phase-two funding, Cooley said, "We'll just complete our currentcontracts as they are written and utilize the building the best we can." He added, however, he wasconfident the legislature would fund phase-two plans. "We'll know when the (special) session is over,"he said. Phase two is first on Western's priority list. The third and final phase of the technology-renovation plan calls for an additional floor to be added to the new Tech building. The extra floor isexpected to cost about $4.5 million. Cooley said the university is scheduled to ask for the funds for the1991-93 bienium.

Failures inspire writing guidebook By Rich Ellis staff reporter â€” A new book is available to Western students who have difficulty with or want to improve their writingskills. The book is called The Guide and was put together by an expository writing committee atWestern. A 30-percent failure rate on the Junior Writing. Exam inspired the writing of the book. Peoplethink they can do well on the test, when in reality "quite a number of students don't know how to write,"committee member James Talbot said. "People simply don't practice enough," he said. The examdetermines whether a student is ready for a junior-level, writing-intensive course. The student doesn'tnecessarily have to pass the test, said Talbot, of the geology department, he just has to take it. It's upto the student's adviser to evaluate the test and decide if the student is ready for a writing-intensivecourse. A valuable part of the test is the writing of an essay to be given to the adviser to critique andsee if the student understands the basic skills of writing. The Guide helps students research, organizeand write papers. It's not a book on grammar, Talbot said. "It's a broad-brush approach on how to get apaper together," said Richard Fonda, head of the writing committee. Fonda said two sections of the bookare of particular importance. Chapter three deals with evidence and how to handle it in the humanitiesand sciences, the two broad breakdowns of subjects of study at Western. "The students had lots ofevidence," Fonda said. "But they couldn't connect it to the thesis of the paper." Chapter five featuresstrong comments about how to gel started in writing, Fonda said. The Guide is available at the bookstoreand can be purchased for $1.25. Building improvements hike '87 housing rates By Danielle Moran staffreporter Students returning to residence halls next year can expect to pay an extra $210, while those inapartments will pay an extra $83 for the year. Kay Rich, director of University Residences, said in atelephone interview last week her office was "working hard to get (the increase) because it's necessary."The system is getting old,"she said. "And it's costing more each year to keep it at a certain standard."About $190,000 is budgeted for work on elevators in Mathes and Nash halls. "The elevators will becompletely refur-. bished and brought to a higher fire safety code," Rich said. The elevators still meet the standards that were required at installation, she said, but the codes have changed. Money also will bespent removing a potentially dangerous electrical cooling system from the halls. In each building theindustrial chemical PCB (poly chlorinated biphenyl) is used as a coolant for coils transmitting electriccurrents. "A few years ago they discovered that PCB is toxic to the air and land if it leaks," Rich said.Although the system is perfectly safe if it's not leaking she said, "We want to remove all of these beforethey could get to that stage, and replace them with another type." Birnam Wood residents will seeimprovements to one or two towers when the 15-year-old carpets are replaced. Rich said her officeeventually will refurbish all the towers, but for the time being they will "take the salvageable items fromthose (first renovated) to feed into the other apartments." Fire and smoke alarms will be replaced inMathes Hall as "part of a nine-year plan for new smoke alarms that are centrally monitored and pluggedinto the fire department," Rich said. The system, which has smoke detectors in every room, was firstinstalled last year in Nash Hall. Other projects include improvements for Fairhaven Dining Hall. "We'redoing the first stages of bringing (the dining hall) up to snuff," she said. The Office of UniversityResidences has out-layed "some planning money for design and new tables." Plans to boost university-residence revenues may include a rise in washer and dryer fees by 10 cents and 20 cents respectively. The rise would increase the machines' revenue earning power by $50,000 for the year. Rich said shewas receiving a: lot of opposition from the residence halls. She added, "Our maintenance man islooking at alternative coin boxes that would cut down on tampering or vandalism." ---------- Western Front - 1987 May 5 - Page 2 ---------- i 2 WESTERN FRONT TUESDAY, MAY 5,1987 IKSfBciBliBliiHpSHiBi^ipiiBiiiB^HllBHIiIl M ^ B B I M l I l l l l i l B l (jJ^||Bj|||i||^|J^I^|| ^s^p^|Jâ€¢^M^l|i|M|i^ii|i|liii^li|M|i|i|i^ii|l(l B^^BiiBIIBliiiS^BIiiBl IBiifiJBiiiiliB^Bi^8Sitheme is "Can The Earth Contain ^ ^ | ( j | | ^ i l p l l l | J l ^ l l liB^HBBBiiiiiiiiBiBliJI (iilBB^JiBiiiBiMHHlBljSjpllSliilpJIIBllllHiiB BiiBlBiiwiiBBiiiiBiSiJi :ii^MiiiilMii^HiiiiiBiHiii B^BIlfcJlSlBiiBBP^SlifciiiilWiiiWl^BttM^KiB l i l l ^ j l | l | | | ^ | i | t t | j | | | || ll^BIBlilBI^BlHHIIiiSlll Sii^lpliiHi^ifiB^BiiiiMBSBUpBlilBIBBl^J^ SiiililHliBlBliSiBBiB Outbreak of canine attacks endangers Outback animalsRebecca L. Duce staff reporter One angora goat and three geese were found dead inside the fenced field of the Outback Farm April 26. The residents of the farm suspect a dog killed the animals, although noproof could be found, Outback resident Chester Zeller said. The goat killed was worth about $100, andeach goose was worth from $15 to $20, Zeller said. The bodies of the animals were transported to thecounty and buried. Two geese and one older, partially crippled angora goat remains. After the attack onthe animals, the Outback residents conducted all-night watches. "The first night, the Outback residentstook shifts to watch the field. The second night, I slept out there. The third night, I left the windows openin my cabin," Zeller said. Tuesday, the third night, a screaming goose got Zeller out of bed at 4 a.m. Hesaid when he got out to the field, he could not find a problem. This is not the first attack on the Outbackanimals. Last fall, the surviving goat was cut when a dog chased it into a fence, Zeller said. Campus cops April 26,10:41 p.m., Charles T.

After that, he said, there will be a lull for awhile, when aneighborhood will get hit. Brown doesn't think the thieves are Western students. They probably are highschool students, or just out of high school, he said. One or two or a group probably are responsiblefor both hits, Brown said, but it is impossible to tell.

As a result ofexplorations of the data and informed judgements from the committee, recommendations weresubmitted to Ford April 10 for review. The recommendations of the report included a wide array ofobjectives to bring balance to the library acquisitions budget in the following years. Among this list ofobjectives was the resolution the library budget be significantly enlarged. It also suggested thelibrary be given greater prominence in university-planning and policy formation. The library'sacquisitions budget for this year was $800,000. About $697,238 or 87 percent was spent on renewingannual subscription prices. The other $102,767 was spent on new books. As a result of increasingsubscription prices, the money that once was available for purchasing new books is no longer there."Hours and hours of work went into the report," said Donna Packer, head of acquisitions and collectiondevelopment. It's essential that a good undergraduate library have in-depth research materials, Packersaid. Not only is it benefiting the faculty in their knowledge about the subject, but the student as well.With the availability of these materials, a professor can give a student a more sophisticatedassignment and in turn affect the quality of work completed by the students, Parker added. Thecommittee was appointed in September 1986. Chaired by Sam Kelly, graduate school dean, thecommittee was asked to develop a plan that would address the needs of the library acquisition budget.The first was to review the current allocation of acquisition funds of various disciplines and to see if itagreed with the university's academic priorities. Secondly, the committee would review what role theteaching faculty should have in selecting library materials. In the past, faculty members have asked for particular subscriptions and have rarely been denied. Therefore, some of the departments exceedothers in journals, Kelly said. The librarians will have the responsibility of selecting materials anddeveloping collections that best reflect the expressed needs and interest of faculty, Packer said. Foreach department one librarian is assigned to keep in close contact with the departmental chairs. It'simportant that the faculty in each department identify key journals, she added. The committee requested specific information about the role and importance of current subscriptions and other acquisitions from each department and also considered future plans for each department, Packer said. "The committeetook a lot of things into consideration," Kelly said. Factors included data on library usage, costs ofbooks and serials, recent publications ;and re-, search accomplishments of departments, studentenrollment and the number of courses taught. A spreadsheet was examined 60 different ways in eachdiscipline, to see where to reallocate funds, Packer said. "You try to be as objective as you can, buteventually you have to decide where the money needs to go. "It gave the committee no pleasure at all,"Packer said. "It's very clear we couldn't continue (with the present library acquisitions budget)," sheadded. Disciplines with the biggest budget cuts will be from foreign languages, mathematics, and thenatural sciences, excluding geology, Packer said. Most people think it should be an even distribution,Packer said, but added that every campus is different. "The report (submitted to Ford) will balance outthe problem," Packer said. To avoid similar problems in Wilson Library, precautions have been taken.Each year a successor committee will be established by the vice
