TUESDAY, June 3, 2003 The Western Front Western Washington University Volume 125 Issue 17 Bellingham, Washington * Universities endure overenrollment By Tara Nelson THE WESTERN FRONT An anticipated population growth in the next few years is sending Washington legislators and higher education officials scrambling to find answers to the state's higher education enrollment crisis. Washington's two- and four-year colleges and universities are already over-enrolled by approximately 16,000 students. The problem is expected to get worse, with numbers estimated to peak in 2008, said Kris Betker, communication coordinator for the Higher Education Continuing board. The HECB recommended 15,500 new general enrollment slots for all two and four-year state colleges combined for the 2003-2005 biennium, but none of the state budget proposals comes close to meeting that demand, Betker said. "We're going to be falling behind with any of the budget proposals that are on the table now," Betker said. Western is currently overenrolled by approximately 250 students, Western vice president for external affairs Bob Edie said. Edie said he expects a sharp^ihcrease : in the number of students who will be turned away in upcoming years because of the anticipated surge of incoming students. The cutbacks could also hamper See OVERENROLLMENT, Page 4 _ â€¢ r ' . . Keith Boiling/The Western Front Western senior Grant Gosch stretches while waiting for a computer in Haggard Hall.

Art department honors student scholarships By Mugs Scherer THE WESTERN FRONT Of the numerous scholarships and awards the art department dispersed at Celebrate Our Art 2003, the one that received the most applause and laughs was the $100 award Justin Hahn received for "outstanding senior" â€” $100 in pennies. Celebrate Our Art 2003 was a May 29 event Western's art department organized. The event included appetizers, a barbecue, awards, scholarships, two live bands, a violinist and a gallery opening. "This is when all of us get to live, think about and enjoy the art produced by our students," art department chairwoman Rosalie King said. Twenty students received scholarships totaling more than $10,000, said Sebastian Mendes, chairman of the Student Development Committee, which made the scholarship decisions. The . individual amounts ranged from $100 to $1,500, Mendes said. "Relatively few students applied," Mendes said. "Until the numbers increase, students in need stand a good chance of receiving aid." The department also named its Bachelor of Fine Arts students for the coming year. The BFA is a program that allows students a fifth year of study, King said. She also said the program is selective. The $100 in pennies, which was also presented, came from the B machine. The B machine, located in the Fine Arts Building, is an old cigarette machine refurbished to vend individually made, cigarette pack-sized works of art for $3. Garth Amundson, an assistant professor in the art department, said he thought combining the presentations with other events was a success and he hoped they would do this every year; The first of the accompanying events included a barbecue outside the Fine Arts See AWARDS, Page 4 WASL results considered for admissions By Melena Eaton THE WESTERN FRONT Prospective college students may have an additional obsticle to tackle to be admitted to "Western. Their Washington Assessment of Student Learning test scures may be considered as a factor for admissions or selection for some scholarships as soon as 2006. High school sophomores taking the WASL in 2006 will have to pass all four sections of the test â€” reading, writing, communication and mathematics â€”- to graduate, a standard most students have not met yet. "Only 30 percent of sophomores passed all four tests last year," said Robin Rettew, assistant director of policy for the Higher Education Coordinating Board. No law is in place that requires colleges to use WASL test scores as admissions criteria, but the presidents of all six public Washington state universities gave their support for the use of the WASL tests in admissions earlier this year, Rettew said. According to the state universities council of president's statement on the use of the WASL in admissions, the public universities are prepared to use WASL scores in three ways. The council of presidents said scores may be used to "establish Running Start eligibility and course placement... identify promising college students, similar to how we now use the PS AT... and consider WASL scores among the criteria in some of their merit scholarship See WASL, Page 4 Marijuana forum addresses penalties, legalization issues By Lacy Bevis THE WESTERN FRONT More than 30 students were greeted with regular brownies and juice as they strolled into the large conference room in the Viking Union, where a panel of four speakers talked Monday evening about the war on drugs and issues involving marijuana legalization. The Drug Information Center, along with the Peace Resource Center, organized a Marijuana Forum entitled "Hashing It Out," at 7 p.m. Monday in the VU. Guest representatives spoke from organizations such as the American Civil Liberties Union, Sensible Seattle and the National Organization for Reform of Marijuana Laws. "As a city in the state of Washington, we cannot change the criminal status of marijuana," said Dominic Holden, Sensible Seattle's Initiative 75's campaign manager and grass roots advocate. "But we can direct our law enforcement not to arrest adults for marijuana possession." Holden said that Sensible Seattle Coalition sponsored 1-75, which if passed will de-prioritize the arrests of adults in Seattle for the possession of small amounts of marijuana. Holden said Sensible Seattle gathered more than 30,000 signatures in Seattle supporting 1-75 and then the city council put it on the September ballot. Andy Ko, director of the ACLU of Washington, wrote the draft for 1-75. "The ACLU, over the years, has seen that more and more civil liberties violations have been caused by the war on drugs and drug prohibition," Ko said. "What we've seen is a constitutional violation of American's rights See MARIJUANA, Page 7 Lacy Bevis/The Western Front Seattle defense attorneys Alison Chinn Holcomb and Jeff Steinborn speak with Western freshmen Rose Emerson and Andrew Mukhatz after the "Hashing it Out" forum.

Under the deal, O'Brien agreed to appoint a church equivalent of a chief of staff, who will oversee day-to-day administration of the 430,000- member diocese. The bishop will no longer deal with sex abuse allegations against clergy. Instead, a new independent special advocate will handle the complaints. If the bishop interferes, he can be prosecuted. Senators oppose media deregulation Senators from both parties are blasting the Federal Communications Commission's decision to let big companies increase their media holdings. North Dakota senator Byron Dorgan called the decision "dumb and dangerous" and warned it will result in "an orgy" of mergers and acquisitions. He said it will mean less diversity and will result in a system with many' stations but just "one ventriloquist." Sen. Trent Lott, R-Miss., said allowing one company to dominate the print and broadcast media in one city or market is not fair to the people who live there. Sen. Ernest Hollings, D-S.C, meanwhile, said greed is the main reason for the ruling. Dorgan and other lawmakers said they will try to get Congress to block the new ownership rules from going into effect. INTERNATIONAL NEWS Disagreements stall Israeli-Palestinian talks Potholes are forming on the road to Middle East peace, a day before the arrival of President Bush in Egypt for the start of talks. Israeli officials announced that they only plan to dismantle approximately one dozen out of 100 Jewish settlements in disputed areas â€” while Palestinian negotiators are refusing to recognize Israel as a Jewish state. These major obstacles to an agreement â€” along with a dispute over disarming militant groups â€” are blocking work on a joint declaration that was hoped to be made on the last day of the two-day summit. Palestinian, Israeli and U.S. officials have been trying to reach a consensus on the wording of declarations that would recognize each side's right to statehood and security. Secretary of State Colin Powell said he's still optimistic the declarations can be written. Compiled by Amanda Peckham.

Cherie Webster, owner of Blue Willi's and organizer of the market, said she went to the Port of Bellingham on May 20 with a proposal for the market idea. The merchants want the Port Commission to approve the proposal and start a contract by next week, Webster said. "We are trying to promote this area, and a lot of people in this town do not know the Bellwether area," Webster said. The market will be used to sell antiques, Webster said. Original craft booths will be limited to three total spaces at the market. The market will be set up in ^ i ^ ^ ^ ^ J ^ ^ the gravel park- ^^^Â«*Â«^i**Â«ii ing lot between the Coast Guard building and the retail center, Webster said. Webster said the market will start out with 40 to 60 booths, but she wants it to grow as big as the space will allow. She said she is not trying to compete with the Farmers' Market in Fairhaven or the fish market in the marina, but she '(The market) brings more people to this beautiful area and gives our guests another attraction while they are here visiting! Carol Beecher General manager of Hotel Bellwether feels the antique market will add to the experience of exploring Bellingham. KGMI is spon- soring the proposal and will advertise and broadcast from the site when the market is open, Webster said The Bellwether B u s i n e s s Association is supporting the proposed antique market idea, she said. "Hotel Bellwether is pleased to have the market," said Carol Beecher, general manager of Hotel Bellwether. 'It brings more people to this beautiful area and gives our guests another attraction while they are here visit-ing. Mark Bergsma, photographer and owner of Mark Bergsma Gallery, moved his gallery to the Bellwether retail center from downtown Bellingham. Bergsma said he welcomes having a public marketplace in the area. "We are looking forward to the (market), and we just hope to get more people down this way," Bergsma said. "Any events that get recognition to Bellwether on the Bay is helpful." Port of Bellingham Commissioner Doug Smith said the project has not been approved yet. The concern with the market is the location in which it will occur each week, he said. "If the opportunity comes up to lease that property to a private entity and develop it, we would want .to do that," Smith said. Webster said she recognizes this dilemma and said that if the market is a success, they would probably move the event to another area around the retail center. "We hope (all the properties) will be built on," Webster said. "For now, we just want to get activity down here." Despite his concern, Smith said the market seems to be a reasonable idea. Smith said he thinks an event happening on a weekend- to- weekend basis would help bring attention to what the port has to offer.

(360)650-2841 ExtendedEd.wwu.edu/summer Mock Federal Reserve Bank exposes students to economics WESTERN Â°Penin9 doors fÂ°r yÂ°u-- WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY By Lianna Wingfield THE WESTERN FRONT Mock members of The Federal Reserve Bank decided Thursday night to keep the interest rate steady at 1.25 percent in a simulated federal open market committee meeting attended by Western economic students. The simulation was part of a presentation by representatives of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco. It gave Western students, faculty and high school teachers from around the Northwest exposure to the purposes, functions and importance of the Federal Reserve Bank, said David Nelson, chairman of the economics department. "We give six of these presenta-' tions a year around the nine western states," said Gary Zimmerman, economist for the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco. The economics department became interested in bringing the representatives to campus after attending a presentation they gave in Idaho, economics professor Pam Whalley said. The policies of the Federal Reserve have an effect on each person in society, Nelson said. "You feel the effect of the interest rates when you go to buy a house or a car," Nelson said. When interest rates are lowered in the case of mortgages, people buy more, Western economics professor Paul Storer said. Interest rates directly correlate to how much people spend, he said. "Cuts in the rates tend to jump-start the economy," he said. "But at times, cuts can lead to inflation." The Federal Reserve has an important and powerful role in economics and society as a whole, Storer said. "The task is really quite daunting," Zimmerman said. "(The Federal Reserve) makes decisions that affect the national and global economy." Federal Reserve officials would like to keep the economy growing at full employment without creating inflation, Zimmerman said. "This is a dynamic world," he said. "One change in policy may affect the economy in a big way." The presentation included talks from the representatives about functions of the Federal Reserve and the financial services and payment system. Representatives also spoke of banking supervision and an insider's perspective on what See RESERVE, Page 6 PEX ERTYM/ â€¢â€¢MHHHHsBBHnnBHni 1018 23rd Street, Sweetwater Apts, $435 + deposit o Bedrooms Continued): ipfiiiiiiii $ML 1J gt;)MMAJ \ â€¢ w n%d|j "â€¢" ^ Give The Graduate You Know a Gift She'll Lave Beads!

While students mingled and ate food, the band Norrin Radd provided music. The first string plucked drew a whoop from the crowd, and the band received consistent cheers despite its members' slight apprehension. "Words you won't need to describe our band: tight or well- rehearsed," band member Calhan Ring said. Once Norrin Radd was finished playing, rock band U.S.S. Horsewhip performed for the rest of the event. From 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., the B Gallery had its Spring Showcase reception. The show features art students' best work from throughout the year, said Andrea Tjoelker, a Western senior and co-coordinator of the gallery. Tjoelker said the B Gallery was part of Celebrate Our Art 2003 to promote involvement in the gallery, which is tucked away in room 118 in the Fine Arts Building. Western sophomore Sarah Kellington, who-was playing her violin as background music in the gallery, said the event was a success since she was performing for a steady stream of people and the room was seldom empty. "The B Gallery not only shows student work, but it gives students the opportunity to work with faculty who are more knowledgeable about operating a gallery," King said. Keith Boiling/The Western Front Western students socialize outside the Fine Arts Building on Thursday after a barbecue. The barbecue was part of the Celebrate Our Art 2003 event. WASL: Standardized test may assist in admissions Continued from Page 1 selection processes beginning in 2006, if scores can be provided electronically." Karen Copetas, director of admissions for Western, said a problem with using WASL scores is that the test is not standardized or administered on the same day at every school. "The integrity of the test could be compromised," Copetas said. Another concern of admissions offices at the universities is that students may not take the test â€¢seriously because they do not yet know that their scores will be a factor in their admission to college. To be fair, the scores will not be used for admissions until the test has become standardized and students know that colleges will look at their scores, Rettew said Once the WASL becomes an official admissions criterion it will most likely not replace the SATs or ACTs but will become another factor used when considering potential students, Copetas said. "A problem with using the WASL is that students cannot be compared nationally, so the SATs will probably riot be totally left out of admissions decisions," Copetas said Overenrollment: Budget crises reducing funding, increasing admission requirements Continued from Page 1 Western's Direct Transfer Agreement, which guarantees Washington state community college graduates access to the university, he said. . "We've been able to live up to our community college agreement so far, but it might change," Edie said. One of the ways that Western has dealt with a surplus of students in the past has been to raise the grade point average and the combined math, English and SAT score requirements, he said. Western's current standard for admission requires a 3.5 grade point average and an 1100 on combined math, English and SAT scores, Edie said. Admission officials, however, also look at an applicant's community involvement, school activities and experience when deciding on admission, Edie said. "That doesn't mean if you get a 3.4, you won't get in here," Edie said. Western is also preparing for more students by constructing new buildings, such as the Communications Facility, which is currently under construction, he said. Betker, however, estimates that by the year 2010, Washington colleges will need funding for an additional 30,000 enrollment slots just to keep up with the current rate of participation in higher education. The 2003 to 2005 Senate and House budget proposals offer funding for 1,634 and 338 new slots, respectively. The Senate budget proposal reduces funding for operating costs for colleges and universities by $122.7 million, and puts a cap on resident-undergraduate tuition increases at 9 percent, approximately $333 per year. The House budget proposal, on the other hand, reduces funding by $88.4 million, and puts a cap on "resident- undergraduate tuition increases at 6 percent, approximately $220 per year. Edie said the House proposal would benefit Western the most. "We prefer the House proposal for two reasons," Edie said. "There's a half-million more for Western in the House than in the Senate. The other reason is it's a more moderate tuition increase â€” 6 percent as opposed to 9 percent." Meanwhile, state business leaders and organizations, such as the Technology Alliance, a group of high-tech businesses, are lobbying for an increase of new enrollment slots in high-demand areas such as engineering and sciences to meet the employment gap in the state's growing high-tech and science fields. Betker said Washington businesses, including Microsoft, are already feeling the effect of the education gap as only 8 percent of its workforce graduated from Washington colleges. "If employers are not finding the workers with the skills that they need in the state, then they will look elsewhere," Betker said. A low percentage of the population enrolled in higher education, especially in high-demand areas, could also prevent new businesses from relocating here â€” or worse â€” force Washington businesses to relocate elsewhere, she said. "One of the things employers are look: ing for is the educational and training level of the workforce," Betker said. 'Tf they see that the colleges are graduating students with the kinds of skills and training that they need they probably would be more likely to relocate here." The funding for those slots, however, is still an issue, she said. "There is a huge need for funding," Betker said. "The budget crisis is forcing cutbacks to a lot of areas, including education. It's just difficult for people who have to write the budget and prioritize because everything's under the knife." Rep. Maralyn Chase, D- Edmonds, a member of the Higher Education Committee, however, said she worries the low percentage of the state's population enrolled in college, combined with the increasing difficulty of enrollment, is creating a "permanent underclass" of uneducated people. "If our jobs demand highly trained people, and we don't have any schools to educate our students, what are we doing to ourselves?" Chase said. "We know we've got this underclass growing and yet at the same time, we're building an elitist school system." LOOKING FOR WORK! It's competitive out here! I CAN HELP YOU Janice M.

Big Brothers Big Sisters case manager Nicole Arnold said the Big Brothers Big Sisters mentoring program is struggling financially and cannot afford to match any of the children on their waiting list with mentors. More than 100 children are on the waiting list, which is the largest it has ever been. Bellingham Police officers participating in Buddies in Blue volunteered to spend time with the children at the Sportsplex as well as at 20th Century Bowl in February, which was the program's first event. Arnold said she learned about a program similar to Buddies in Blue at a regional conference she attended last September in Seattle. In October, she contacted Bellingham police officer Keith Johnson, who is also a Big Brother, and discussed the possibility of the BPD working with Big Brothers Big Sisters. Johnson said the BPD does not officially sponsor Buddies in Blue because its primary responsibility is to ensure that officers are available to cover every shift. By allowing officers to volunteer on an event-by-event basis, they can participate when convenient, allowing more officers to volunteer, Johnson said. "I felt like we'd have a good response because we have a lot of young officers and other officers who are into these kinds of things," Johnson said. Bellingham police officer Josh Wilson said he enjoyed playing soccer with the kids and would like to help at another event. "It makes our job rewarding to hang out with good kids," Wilson said. Seven-year-old Richard Garza, son of Bellingham. resident Cheri Richey, has been waiting more than two years for a mentor. Garza attended the bowling event and was visited by four officers during his recess at Parkview Elementary School who played kickball and ate lunch with him. "He was thrilled and told everyone he was going bowling with the police officers â€” but f- Melena Eaton/The Western Front Bellingham Police officers teach soccer to children without mentors as part of the Buddies in Blue program. the biggest thrill was when are matched with mentors. they showed up at his school," Richey said. Arnold said she would like the program to continue even if many of the children on the waiting list 'There will always be a need for the program because even if we do get the wait list down, there will still be kids waiting," Arnold said. Reserve: Mock meeting calms interest rates Continued from Page 3 happens at a FMOC meeting. Western economic students from Storer's money and banking class concluded the evening with the simulated mock FMOC meeting. In the mock meeting, six students represented governors and the president of the Federal Reserve, Storer said. Based upon the current economic conditions, the students had to decide if they were going to raise, lower or keep the interest rates steady, Storer said. "The students had to try to find the threat of the evils and how the Fed can use interest rates and monetary policy to be safe," Storer said. A simulation such as this forces students to confront a situation faced in the real world, Storer said The real Federal Reserve Banks meet again at the end of June to make another decision about interest rates that will affect the national and global economy.

Attorney and forum speaker Alison Chinn Holcomb of Seattle said she supports 1-75 because she said money is being misappropriated for the war on drugs. According to the Department of Justice statistics, there were 734,498 people arrested (in America) for marijuana violation in 2002. "The money that our government is spending on investigating, arresting, prosecuting and imprisoning marijuana offenders could be used to make effective treatment available for people suffering from real addictions," Holcomb said.

PatFabiano Western Prevention and Wellness coordinator Hayes said he tried to contact the city prosecutor and the Bellingham Police Department to bring balance to the issue but received little cooperation. Pat Fabiano, program director of the Prevention and Wellness Center, said her department was not notified about the event or asked to participate. Fabiano said an event like this would better serve Western students if the issue was presented in a more balanced manner. Fabiano said students should be informed about the negative affects of marijuana. "In an area where there is so much legal and medical controversy, we as a university have an obligation to present more than one side," Fabiano said. Nate Johnson, director of the Peace Resource Center, worked with the Drug Information Center to organize the event. Johnson said the war on drugs is the most important issue discussed at the forum. "The war on drugs is like the war on terrorism in the sense that it is a metaphorical war that cannot be won," Johnson said. "Our legal system is overburdened with non- violent drug users."

Then he walks to Rude's Auto Repair, where he is usually the first one there and the last one to leave. He walks home after work, and if he is lucky, sometimes he gets to go to the grocery store. Bruington, 40, is a criminal. He is a recovering heroin addict, and he is still technically in jail. Bruington is part of the Bellingham Work Release program, which is part of a nonprofit organization called the Community Work Training Association. The association contracts with the Department of Corrections to house offenders and help them to find jobs. "This is a halfway house for people who are transitioning from the state penitentiary sys-tern back into the community," pro- ^ l B l | | | i i l l i | l Bl gramming coordinator Karen Stoos said. The program has been located in a large old mansion on North Garden 7 had a boat, a car â€” / had everythingjâ€” but it all Street since 1975. The only aspects that went into my arm! make this beige house different than the surrounding houses are the cameras that watch over the inmates. "This doesn't compare to prison at all," Bruington said. "The routine is the only thing similar, but the food is much better." Stoos said the program is an essential part of integrating an inmate into society. Instead of being released directly onto the streets, a prisoner can first be sent to a work release program, Stoos said. The program helps prisoners work through family issues, offers budgeting assistance and teaches social skills. The switch from prison life to civilian life is sudden and drastic for many. The work release program is a way to place the prisoners into society, said Miriam Currey, a counselor with the program. "This is a way of easing in," she said. "We're still safe, and we still make some decisions for them." For many inmates, the slow transition is a relief. "This program is a lot better than getting that $40 at the gate and being told 'Here ya go'" Bruington said. Program inmate and Bellingham resident Mike Friend said that without the program, a lot of people would be going back to prison. "I know that without this program I would be doing a lot more time," he said. Friend said that when people get out of jail, they have lost the ability to socialize with the general public. Participating in the program helps him to learn how to act, he said. . "My first day, when I came here, I was just hiding in my room," Friend said. Bruington's story is typical for incarcerated drug users. He abused cocaine and other hard drugs throughout high school. Instead of stealing to support his habit, he turned to selling heroin. He was arrested, along with his mother, for drug trafficking and served two-and-a-half years in prison. He is finishing his last six months of jail time in the work release program. '1 had a boat, a car â€” I had everything â€” but it all went into my arm," Bruington said. He served two years on McNeil Island before he was accepted into the program. If a person wishes to participate in the program, he or she must apply while still in prison. A screening committee of citizens and local law enforcement officials meets monthly to decide which applicants to accept. "The focus of the screening committee is on community safety," Stoos said. The program used to be located on Western's campus in the basement of Highland Hall. When the program moved to North Garden Street, some neighbors were resentful, Stoos said., "When we first moved here, there were a couple of older couples that complained," she said. "Suddenly 25 felons moved in next door, so they were scared." The residents of the program, however, have become an asset to the neighbors, Stoos said. Sometimes the prisoners will fix a toilet or do other light maintenance. When one neighbor's husband passed away, she would visit the inmates' house whenever she was lonely. For Bruington, the house has a different meaning. He grew up in Bellingham and has lived here all of his life. "This is my neighborhood," he said. "I used to drive by this house and wonder "What the hell is that place?'" The inmates are also an asset to the economy, Stoos said. Instead of people paying for the prisoners to be in prison, the prisoners are easing some of those costs. "They are an advantage for the community because they are paying taxes and also paying room and board," Stoos said. Bruington, who likes to read about astrophysics and astronomy in his spare time, said the program is a great alternative to being behind bars. "In some ways prison can be nice," he said. 'Tm going to miss coming home and having dinner cooked for me. If I could have a girl roommate, they would have to pry me out of here." Bruington said he does not plan to return to jail. When he gets out, he plans to get his driver's license so he can drive the '89 Corvette his boss is going to loan him. He already has a place to five and is looking forward to continuing his life. ._'â€¢-' TH mainly be looking for a girlfriend," he said. Barry Bruington Inmate in the Bellingham Work Release program Eric Berto/The Western Front Cody Hansen, a convict in the Bellingham Work Release program, smokes a cigarette on his porch. The program helps convicts integrate into society. He shudders at the thought of where he will be in 10 years. He knows the crime he committed will haunt him for the rest of his life, he said. 'Til probably never own another home or have another credit card," he said. "But material things don't mean as much to me as they used to." The service the program offers is difficult to duplicate, Stoos said. It is a way for the criminals to work through the situations in their lives that put them in jail. "All of the people here have a lot of problemsâ€” that's "what got them here," she said. "But everybody seems real pleased with the fact that we care." : Study online for only $499! â€¢ Get unlimited, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week access to online lectures, ^uizzesrfulMength exams, workshops. â€¢ Have unlimited e-mail access to teachers with answers to your questions in 24 hours. â€¢ Sign up now and receive the same comprehensive home study kit used In Kaplan's classroom courses!

Crafty students devise ways to sneak into dining halls By Andy Aley The Western Front An exit door at the bottom of a flight of stairs opens as a group of students leaves the Ridgeway Commons after a meal. As the students walk away, the door remains open as if caught or held by something that should not be there. Another student enters the doorway, looks around cautiously and sneaks into the dining hall. "It's free, it's easy (and) very satisfying," said John, a Western senior speaking anonymously because of the disciplinary actions Western could take against him. John said that when he sneaks into the "Viking Commons, he ducks into the bathroom, waits a few minutes and enters as if he has already paid. Sneaking in without a backpack makes it easier, he said. "If I have my backpack on, then 111 remove a ceiling tile in the bathroom, place my backpack into the ceiling and put the ceiling tile back, and then I don't have a backpack," John said. Each year diners waste approximately 130,240 pounds of food, said Lisa North, director of business development for University Dining Services. The cost of that waste is recouped through increased prices and decreased dining hall services. Some of that waste is caused by students who take more food than tKey can eat, in turn throwing away large portions of food. The rest of the waste, however, is caused by people sneaking in. During any meal time on any given day, an indeterminable number of students enter the dining halls without paying, said Nori Yamashita, general manager of Western Dining Services. "It's always been a problem," Yamashita said. "It's sort of a part of our life. We have three dining halls, and out of the three, I'll say we have the most difficulty with Ridgeway Commons." Josephine Garcia, manager of the Ridgeway Commons, said the design of the entrance and exit doors makes it easy for students to sneak in and difficult for staff members to catch them. The exit door, which is located far from the entrance area, opens to the end of a long hallway. Students wait in the hall until someone opens the door to leave, Garcia said. Then they hold the door as the person leaves and enter the hallway through the exit. Garcia said students are not deterred by the possibility of paying customers reporting them. Part of the reason for this might be because paying customers do not report the students who sneak in, she said. "I've put several signs up there saying 'Exit only and 'If you are caught, you will be reported to University Police,' " she said. "I also had signs up there saying that if you catch someone entering through this door, and if they wanted to report it, they could approach any manager. But it has never happened." The Ridgeway Commons used to employ door monitors, or enforcers, to prevent students from entering without paying and. to keep students from stealing equipment such as plates, glassware and silverware. While they were effective in keeping non-paying students out, their labor was costly and the position was eliminated. Yamashita said Dining Services also eliminated the enforcers because their presence sent the wrong message to students. "We said, 'OK, well college students are grown-ups, and we'll try to communicate with them the best we can and try to encourage them not to do that,'" he said. "So that's the tactic we decided to use, and has it been successful? We still have a problem." After getting rid of the enforcers, Dining Services employees tried to develop more creative and cost-effective ways to stop students from sneaking in. Yamashita said Dining Services reconfigured the entrance at Viking Commons to make it more difficult for students to sneak by the cashiers during busy periods. The continuing problem has caused Ridgeway Commons employees to use undercover tactics to catch students. "What we do is that we randomly have students and student managers in regular clothes actually eating a meal in the dining hall by where people go out to drop their trays and exit and where (non-paying students) come in," Garcia said. "When they see somebody, they call up for a manager." Garcia said that method has been effective in catching some non-paying students, When students are caught, howev- ; er, the managers often do ^QOÂ£ punish them to the fullest extent. Garcia said she usually makes photocopies of the offenders' Western ID cards and charges Mike Alton/The Western Front Western freshmen Mike Bush, left, and Ian Audette demonstrate how to sneak into the Ridgeway Commons. those who have meal plans.

"I said I wanted to start; my own business," Mead said. "I can either work for someone or start it myself." Mead said that approximately two months ago, he established Mead Technology services, which provides computer repair, upgrades, networking, consulting and tutoring for the Bellingham community. Despite the difficult job market, Mead has been successful. Mead estimates that if his positive trend continues, he will consider hiring employees within three to six months. "I would love to grow," Mead said. "If new customers keep on coming, I would like to see this grow and have offices in other cities." Mead graduated in December 2002 with a degree in business management and began looking for a job. He did, however, keep the idea of starting his own business in the back of his mind, and he started to save money. Although his transition from student to entrepreneur was quick, Mead said he believed that fast action was the only route to success. "If I don't do it now, I know I'll never do it," he said. Mead came to Western from Texas more than four years ago because Western's business school was ranked among the highest in the Northwest, he said. He began fiddling with computers as a hobby, and then he worked for Res Tek for two years and interned for Lynnwood software company Apropos for four years. Making it seem almost simplistic, Mead said he saved his money, obtained a business license and got his company name out through word of mouth. Because the business has been in operation for such a short time, Mead said the scope of success is limited. "I've had business, and I'm able to pay bills even though I haven't done any true marketing," he said. Mead said he primarily works with small businesses and residential communities within the computer arena because that way he faces less competition. Mead's customer and former entrepreneur Paul Peck said to expand and be successful in running a business, one must know what to expect and how to solve problems. "Initially in getting started, it's having a realistic view in what running a business is all about," he said. "(You must have) the ability to quickly calculate a problem and fix it." Coupled with drive and knowledge, an entrepreneur must also have a command of people skills, Peck said. "(Mead is) not your average computer geek," Peck said. "He's very personable." Mead said not having a boss and being essentially free-floating can be scary. Uncertainty follows independence, and many people do not want to take that risk, he said. "Many people's mind frames are to work for someone," Mead said. "(Sometimes I think), T didn't get a call today, am I going to survive?'" Ethan D'Onofrio, store manager for Northwest Computer Supplies, said becoming an entrepreneur is risky, especially because the economy is poor, causing market competitiveness to increase dramatically. "Profit margins get so slim that it's hard to make any money doing it," D'Onofrio said. D'Onofrio said he ran his own computer company for a while but ultimately sold his company to Northwest Computer Supply, which provides many of the computers for Western. 'T wish (Mead) the best of luck," D'Onofrio said. 'You could know everything there is to know about computers and nothing about running a business and completely fail." Despite Mead's positive business experiences so far, he said he has experienced difficulties as well. Many unforeseen costs arise when starting a business, such as the installation charges for his tiny Fairhaven office. Mead said his biggest stumbling block has been finding customers. "(Some of the difficulties are) learning how to market correctly, who to attract and how to market to them," he said. Mead said that in order for his company to grow, he must cater to his customers and keep up with rapidly changing technology. "I really can't slack," he said, "because I'm riot a monopoly, and someone can pick up where I left off. There are always other options for them." Mead said he is focused on this new stage of his life but would like to keep an open mind for the future. . "I hope to have the Pacific Northwest populated with my name," he said. "But, who knows? I could go a completely different direction."

"I would have to say we haven't been as strict as we should have," she said. "But I would say on only two occasions I've actually reported students." Yamashita said he thinks students may not realize what can happen to them if they are caught and their cases are forwarded to university judicial officers. "That's one thing that I want them to realize is that, you know, this is not a light matter," he said. "Sometimes they don't think taking food out or sneaking stuff out of the dining hall (is) a theft, but it could be considered a theft. â€” 'It's just like shoplifting â€” a misdemeanor.

U n i v e r s i t y JJ J . , - . . . . / J Residences is Nori Yamashita responsible for dis- General manager of Western Dining Services ciplining students who live on campus and sneak into dining halls. University Residences Judicial Officer Michael Sledge said the offense is treated as a minor theft, the consequences of which depend on the circumstances of the act. First-time offenders are usually told of the potential consequences and given a warning. Western can force repeat offenders to pay restitution or ban them from the dining halls, something which rarely happens, Sledge said. "I can't think of a time in the last year and a half when (that) has happened," he said. The Office of Student Life is responsible for non-resident cases. Michael Schardein, the office of student life judicial officer, said no absolute penalties exist for offenders. As with resident students, they decide discipline on an individual basis, with repeat offenders receiving harsher punishments, such as suspension from Western. "Normally, we make them pay for at least the meal we're talking about," he said; Schardein said he deals with only a couple of cases each year, which are usually first-time offenders. Despite the potential consequences, students continue to sneak into the halls on a daily basis for a number of reasons. Mike Cumiskey, prices, services and costs of operating, Yamashita said. "We put in a proposal saying this is our cost and this is how we did last year, anticipating some of the inflation for the next year, and this is what we're going to try to capture," he said. "And also to go with that, we have a profit limit. We can only make so much." Western imposes profit limits, which control how much money can be made from student meal purchases each year, on Dining Services. Because profit is money made in excess of costs,- food waste is a cost, stolen food is categorized as waste and the amount of food students steal directly affects the cost of meal plans. Yamashita said he thinks students may not realize they are costing fellow students money rather than Western. "If our cost really increases drastically, then I have to go back and ask the university for a price increase, and that will get passed on to room and board," he said. "Really what I'm hoping for is that the fellow students and fellow customers, if they see somebody sneaking in, I think they have every right to say, 'Hey, look, how come you are coming in from the back door or whatever, and yQu really don't belong here, and unless you pay, you are costing me money.'" who lives with students but does not attend Western, said he sneaks into the dining halls because he can get free food and probably would not be severely punished if he was caught. "I just do it because I'm hungry," Cumiskey said. 'What are they going to do to me? Court sucks, but I don't think there is anything wrong with stealing from an organization that is notoriously ripping people off to begin with. So no, I don't really give a shit. I'm not stealing from hungry people." Whether students sneak in for a fre.e lunch or a cheap thrill, the ultimate effect of their actions is passed on to paying customers in the form of price increases and decreased services. Dining Services proposes an annual operating budget to Western that details Infographic by Keith Boiling. Enforcer's estimate is based on a rate of $8 per hour, three hours of work per day and 365 days of work. Food waste estimate is based on a rate of 10 stolen meals per day, $2 per meal (actual meal price) and 365 days of wastage. CKoooeo not to Drink * 1 drink =12 oz, Beer - 4-5 oz.

Soon after, he discovered Western's.Center for Performance Excellence. "I did a little research into the graduate school at-Western, and j p | | j l || here is this .guy fe^^*^1*^*^ named Ralph ^ Qre m% ^ ^ ^ my sport psychology graduate program," Vernacchia said. "It has been a process that has been ongoing since 1998. Students wanted more opportunities to practice sports psychology." This year the CPE worked for Western women's soccer and softball teams. "We are not there to fix anybody, we are just there as a resource to Vernacchia who is internationally body, we are just there as a known (in the resource to help athletes to sports psycholo- better at what they do gt; gy field), so I - â€¢. . dameand0told0me Ed Kingston â€¢J i.i- L. T -A. Western graduate student and wife that I quit ^^T . . my job and was CPE P 1 0 ^ Participant going back to graduate school," Kingston said. Vernacchia, CPE director and Western physical education professor, officially opened the CPE in fall 2001. The center offers programs such as a Peak Performance class and high school Peak Performance classes. The CPE also works with Western sports teams and helps teams focus on building mental skills such as imagery, self-talk, goal-setting and relaxation to enhance performance. "It is an outgrowth of our help athletes to get better at what they do," Kingston said. As part of the CPE program, the softball team participated in team-building exercises and developed a mission statement. The CPE taught the team to organize its goals, use breathing techniques and establish mental and physical routines* Western junior and second baseman Charity Harmeson said. "(Western's softball team) never established goals in a structured way; we always did it on our own," Harmeson said. "So the mission statement consisted of our goals in an outlined form." As the season progressed, Kingston, Leita and Vernacchia attended practices and worked on routines with hitting and fielding. "Visualizing the ball coming to me, whether it be in the field or up to bat, helped me mentally and physically be prepared at times when I became nervous," Harmeson said. Working closely with the athletes is something the CPE said-it feels is the best way to apply their techniques, Kingston said. "(Ralph Vernacchia) is one of the leaders in the field of applied sports psychology," Kingston said. "Working in that field you see people who are very good at talking about sports psychology and researching, but actually showing up to a softball field and being with athletes â€” he is definitely one of the leaders, and we are the disciples of that." Kingston is one of two student alumni completing the CPE graduate program from Vernacchia. Jennifer Leita, 25, a second-year graduate student and the CPE coordinator, is a teacher's assistant for several physical education classes and is a support member for the faculty. Kingston and Leita developed a high school Peak Performance class. The class includes students from several local high schools. "We gear it to deal specifically Leslie White /The Western Front Western junior Courtney Everson and freshman Kaly Hess listen to a speech by Center for Performance Excellence Director Ralph Vernacchia on Monday titled "The Passion, Poison, and the Pursuit of Excellence." with high school athletes, so we make it really direct and really applicable to their activities," Leita said. Vernacchia teaches the community Peak Performance class, which is drawing interest among the community; the class grew from 15 to 60 people in four years, Vernacchia said. Some of the issues and topics addressed in the CPE's classes include passion, attitude and character, which are topics peo-ple discuss that affect their See CPE, Page 16 Lakeway Realty 733-4009 UNFURNISHED HOMES (Sorted by Date Available) NOW 1468 Franklin 4Bd $950 2223 J St. 4Bd $1150 2130 Superior 3Bd $990 2412 Cherry St. 3Bd $795 1230Clearbrook 3Bd$1095 1250 Ellis 4Bd $1125 . 2130 Franklin 3Bd $750 2519 Franklin 4Bd $1250 1442 Iron St 3Bd$1300 1634 Iron 3Bd $895 513 E.

The Vikings' eight-person boat blazed across the finish line of the 2,000-meter grand finals course Sunday with a time of 6 minutes, 56.60 seconds, just behind University of California, Davis' boat, which finished with a time of 6:51.74. Rowers in the Vikings' four-person boat mirrored the performance of the eight shell with a time of 7:59.42, though it again trailed the 7:47.03 time posted by UC, Davis. "We pretty much performed 100 percent," Western coach John Fuchs said. "Davis just" had a couple of faster boats." Fuchs said his team was competitive considering how many women are new to Western's team. "I'm proud of them," he said. "We went in without expectations, and they performed very" well." Western sophomore Gail Lumsden, who rows for the eight-person boat, said she was grateful for the chance to row in the championship. "It's cool that we got to go to nationals at all, let alone place second with a brand new crew," she said. Western senior Katie Miller, crew captain for the women's teams, said the Vikings worked strenuously to get to the national championship. "We practice six days a week at five in the morning and then work out later in the day," Miller said. "It's a 120 to 130 hour per week commitment. This is a group of girls that Photo courtesy of Gail Lumsden. Members of Western's eight shell prepare for competition at the NCAA Division II Women's Rowing National Championships at Eagle Creek Reservoir in Indiana. Western's varsity teams took second place. work their asses off all the time." Miller will graduate this year and will not return to the team next year. She said the Vikings will benefit if UC, Davis becomes a NCAA Division I school next year. "Most likely Davis will be a Division I school next year, and I think we'll have a national championship," Miller said. Lumsden said she believes the team will be even more competitive next year because most of its rowers will return. "Since we're such a young team, we won't lose a bunch of rowers," she said. "There's still competition in Division II, but we want to work hard and have a chance at winning next year." Lumsden said she is impressed by the team and its growth. "I think rowing with these girls is one of the most rewarding things that I've done with my life," she said. "I'm more proud of this than anything." CPE: Director pioneers field of sports psychology Continued from Page 15 performance, Vernacchia said. "Do you have pride in your performance, and are you proud of what you do?" Vernacchia said. "Those are some of the elements that are very engaging to people, and it resonates inside of people. It's all true, and it seems like common sense, but common sense takes a lot of hard work to make it a reality." The Peak Performance classes are not only for athletes, Kingston said. "For the most part, it is people who just want to get better at what they do, whether it be recreational athletes, musicians or artists," he said. Vernacchia coached Western track and field for 14 years and traveled with the 2000 USA Olympic track and field team to Sydney, Australia, as a sports psychology consultant. He is transferring to West Point United States Military Academy as a visiting professor in sports psychology and will return to Western the following year. "People ask me 'how did you get to go to the Olympics? and how did you get to do this and that?' " Vernacchia said. "I tell them go to work early and come home late, and good things will happen."

If the issue was addressed earlier, the cost would have been far less and the disease would not have had as much time to spread. According to ABC News, $5 billion would provide a total of $30 for every AIDS patient in Africa per year. Based on that figure, the $15 billion contribution from the United States would provide only.$90 per patient. The $90 per patient does not take into account money needed for educating the general public on safe sex and abstinence education, which is also written into the bill. The extent to which the money will impact the crisis is questionable during the three years the money will be distributed. In all likelihood, the money will barely even begin to control the disease. During World War II relief in Europe, the United States spent a sum that would be equal to $100 billion today to rebuild the continent with the Marshall Plan, according to ABC News. The damage toll of both crises is comparable. Because of the manner in which the AIDS virus spreads, the United States should have taken action years ago to curb its spread in the third world. Since AIDS is a sexually transmitted disease, the social stigma attached to it has promoted an attitude of ignorance. Thus, education and attention to the problem were often overlooked. Now, the costs for treating an epidemic exceed the means of any African country or even the world to solve without making sacrifices. In South Africa, approximately 20 percent of adults are infected with HIV, and with a total of 5 million infected people, the region has the largest number of people living with HIV/AIDS in the world, according to a Web site operated by Avert, an international AIDS charity. In 2001 alone, 2.1 million people died of AIDS in Africa, according to the Web site. Since-the problem is overwhelming in both the cities and rural areas, educating everyone could be an extensive project requiring volunteers and individuals willing to travel throughout the continent and this could be tedious. Whether the people will respond to the educational services is entirely up to the individuals. In an educational atmosphere, the personal investment from the individuals, volunteers and medical personnel helping the communities recover would have to be completely committed to change to affect people's patterns of thinking and behavior. Many people say the United States has spent enough with the $15 billion, and it has no obligation for any other countries' problems. In the past, the United States has invested in affairs of other nations. The president initiated the most recent wars on the basis of freeing nations living under dictatorship. The amount of money the United States spent on Operation Iraqi Freedom was double what it is spending in Africa. If U.S. citizens care about the well being of other people, cost should not be an issue. gt; A mere $15 billion will not solve the problem, but perhaps this investment by the United States will encourage other countries in the world to contribute to the African AIDS crisis. As the Global 8 summit, a gathering of the leaders of the worlds eight superpowers, commences and the issue is addressed, the crisis may be dealt with. It is clear that the United States cannot solve the problem alone, but with the help of the world, a solution could be near. People need to make personal changes regarding practicing abstinence and safe sex. The United States and other nations should provide services, medications, and prophylactics, but the ultimate responsibility is with the individual. The AIDS epidemic in Africa may be one of the worst crises of recent times, and the Unites States must do more than throw money at the situation.

These ordinances stem from a growing trend in which more than 60 cities, including Los Angeles, Seattle and Atlanta, are attempting to criminalize homeless activity. While homelessness is a nationwide problem that needs to be dealt with, ignoring the homeless and chasing them off the streets is not the appropriate answer. Homelessness is a chronic problem in America and is often related to other public problems such as drug use, prostitution and crime. According to a June 1 Seattle Times article, city officials estimate that approximately 1,000 men and women live on the streets of Seattle. Approximately 2,400 to 3,300 people each month spend the night at Bellingham's Lighthouse Mission, said Susan Purler, the women's caseworker at the mission. The government has no right to tell churches or civic welfare organizations that they cannot help the homeless. If a church or organization wants to feed the homeless and give them a place to sleep at night, then that is fine. If they want to start a program to have clergy members yell and ridicule the homeless on Sunday afternoons, that is fine, too. The point is that any government â€” city, state or national â€” should let these organizations operate as they see fit. Making assistance to the homeless illegal will lead to increased crime and further problems. A majority of homeless people must receive food from one type of agency or another. Removing these types of help will force homeless people, who are already desperate and need food to survive, to commit more dangerous measures such as shoplifting, robbery and even violent crimes. As cities nationwide face surges in their homeless population, much of it can be attributed to a slower economy, high unemployment rates and a decline in affordable housing. While passing laws to purge unwanted homeless people from the street might have a positive short-term effect, it merely attempts to solve the symptoms of much larger social problems. If an old, rickety boat needs fixing, then painting will make it look great, but it still will not float unless the holes are patched. Many advocates who support criminalizing the activities of the homeless feel it will help businesses and establish an overall safer and healthier environment for "normal" American citizens. America is founded on the promise that all citizens have the same rights and opportunities. By marginalizing the homeless with laws that keep them from receiving aid, the government is treating them as second-class citizens who do not deserve those freedoms. City governments should focus their efforts on fixing the economy, unemployment and other fundamental problems that lead to homelessness. The government should also offer substance abuse prevention, mental health counseling and job training to help the homeless remove themselves from the street. Penalizing the homeless by making civil welfare efforts illegal will, in the long run, cause more problems than it will solve.

Lab policy is false advertising Mugs Scherer COMMENTARY Western advertises that the Ridgeway computer lab is open 24 hours per day. Students cannot use the lab late at night or early in the morning when the doors of the Ridgeway Commons are locked. The Ridgeway computer lab should be open 24 hours per day because Western publicizes an open lab to students, and students need all-hours access. According to the Residential Community Handbook and A Guide to University Residences, the lab on the Ridge is always open. To say a lab is always open, when it is not, is blatant false advertising. Students should receive the correct information about the facilities available to them without having to find out via a locked door for a computer lab that is supposed to be open 24 hours per day. Shutting out campus residents from a computer lab also raises safety and convenience problems. Students will have to go somewhere else, such as to the labs in Haggard Hall. Aside from the inconvenience of walking, students may have to wait a long time to use a computer in Haggard Hall. Giving students on the Ridge two places they can go to use a computer may not eliminate the occasional wait for an available computer, but it would reduce the occurrence. Convenience is one of the benefits students expect when they pay to live on campus, and they do not receive it when the Ridgeway lab is locked. Just as walking farther to complete computer work is less convenient, it is also less safe. This is especially true late at night when the Ridgeway lab is â€¢ locked. Crime happens, resulting in robbery, violence or a combination of the two. Students walking around campus late at night to use computers are taking unnecessary risks, and this is one more reason why the Ridgeway lab should be open 24 hours. One reason to lock the Ridgeway Commons after hours is to restrict the opportunities of vandalism, spills or accidental damage. Anyone can go in at any time if the building is always open. __ See RIDGE, Page 19 Investigation should have continued Katie Grimes COMMENTARY According to internal police documents released May 23, Tacoma City Manager Ray Corpez Jr. halted an internal- affairs investigation into the domestic-abuse allegations against former Tacoma police chief David Brame while he was still alive. If this investigation had continued, Brame would not have been in possession of the service weapon he used to kill his wife and himself. This new information added to the already overwhelming evidence that city officials ignored events foreshadowing the murder-suicide of Brame and his wife. Brame, 44, met his ex-wife, Crystal, 35, by coincidence on April 26 in a Gig Harbor mall parking lot. Brame had custody of their two children for the weekend and left them in the car as he walked across the lot to his ex-wife. He then entered her car and shot her in the head before shooting himself, killing them both. Since his death, details about Brame's personal life and discrepancies in the way Tacoma management promoted him continue to surface. Divorce fillings between Brame and his wife, made public by .the media only a week before their death, revealed pleadings by Crystal describing her husband as controlling and violent. She said he Tiad threatened her with his gun and abused his police power to get away with it. When these reports became public, a Seattle Times reporter interviewed Corpez for an April 25 article. In the interview, Corpez said he had "no interest in exploring David's personal life." After reading the story, Tacoma police human resource officials recommended Brame's gun and badge be taken away. City attorneys disagreed with this recommendation. The next day, Brame shot his wife and himself with his service weapon. The first sign of problems involving Brame came in 1981, when he first applied to Tacoma's Police Department. Brame's personnel . file revealed that he failed to pass the psychological test administered to all applicants according to a report by The Seattle Times. In the reports, psychologists described him as "unfit" to serve as an officer. Despite his See POLICE, Page 19 ---------- Western Front 2003-06-03 - Page 19 ---------- June 3, 2003 Opinions The Western Front â€¢ 19 Ridge: Lab should be open 24 hours per day Continued from Page 18 But the same possibilities exist in Haggard Hall, and it stays open all night. Also, these possibilities do not change the fact that students decide where to live on campus, or even decide to live on campus based solely on false information from the college. Furthermore, placing the security of a building over the safety and convenience of the students is a poor decision. The Ridgeway computer lab should be open 24 hours per day. While this might require more Greencoats to check the interior of the building periodically, it would be worth the effort because it would solve the false information problem and provide a safer and more convenient living environment for students. Police: Deaths could have been prevented Continued from Page 18 personnel file, the Tacoma Police Department hired him anyway. Then, in 1989, a woman accused Brame of forcing her to have sex with him and using his gun to threaten her. According to Tacoma Police Department policies, supervisors must respond to reports or other warning signs of inappropriate behaviors by officers through an internal investigation of the person in question. These investigations can lead to the relinquishment of the officer's weapon. Even after multiple reports were made regarding Brame, these precautionary measures were never taken. It is possible in a large department of officers that investigating every one of them for different accusations would be difficult and time consuming and would cost tax payers more money. Police officers are two to four times more likely to be involved in domestic disputes in their homes, according to a national study by the Center for Women and Policing. Corpez admitted that he did not read all of Brame's personnel file before hiring him. A few extra minutes of reading by administrators making powerful decisions would not have cost the city more money, and may have halted the hiring of Brame and saved two lives. Corpez, who has r un the city of Tacoma for 13 years, said he will resign after the investigation. More must be done to assure that someone like Brame is never issued a firearm. This case proves that police need a reliable system of internal checks and balances. And if this does not work, state or federal government must set stiffer guidelines on evaluating officers before they are employed. This incident should serve as a lesson to Tacoma and all cities in respecting the seriousness of allegations against police officers. Officers are people and are imperfect just like everyone else. City managers should assure that the people they issue firearms to have the competency to handle them with responsibility. lllillR^ g|^il||||||Kr|Qf-no more than 250 wor4s;;tb^;;il|il|llil ^^^^fl^lfefSf t in| 1 Front â€¢ v- ;t^||llSjf|j ^^^^^^^f^jpinions'editor â€¢ l^^iiiiii^5?ioo.,. . .;;;;-;^;::';;;^:lll;|l||i!

Thetwo numbers, "The Medium" and "Bastien and Bastienne," are scheduled for next Friday and Saturday, May 23 and 24 in the Auditorium. In order that the operas may be most fully appreciated by thestudents who attend, the backgrounds of the two have been emphasized this year. THE SECOND ofthe two operas, "Bastien and Bastienne," is the earliest of the master's works which still remains as heoriginally wrote it, at the age of 12. Actually an. operetta, it was first performed in 1768 at a garden party of one of the pioneers in the field of hypnotism, Dr. Anton Mesmer.

'The Medium/' by Menotti, and Mozart's "Bastien and Bastienne" will be presented nextFriday and Saturday evenings in the Auditorium. two other earlier versions of the same tale. One of these was a free and somewhat crude translation â€¢ of a French comic opera, "Les Amours Des Bastien etBastienne." This was in turn based on a more serious and delicate production "Le Devinj de Village" byJean Jacques Rous seau. This latter piece achieved world fame within a short time after its writing.THERE ARE MANY factors which undoubtedly influenced Mo zart in the composition of the opera: thecomic opera of Paris, the baroque dance-songs of Salzburg and Vienna, the ent' actes of the SalzburgUniversity Thearte, and the comic improvisations of Vien nese humor. These elements of the musicalcomposition of his day were fused with his own personality and transformed into an individual work ofart with a style distinctly that of Mozart. It takes the form of the then-fashionable pastorale and theintimate freshness of the young boy who wrote it. I felt that the other candidates were very worthy ofthis award but personally I'm very happy to receive this honor. I would like to thank the Helmsmen formaking this possible," Emerson commented. He will be back at Western next year to compete inathletics. "We were pleased how well the dance and band were received," Haag said. Haagcomplimented all of the SSI committees for their work. He pointed to the publicity and decorationarrangements as being "particularly outstanding." IT WAS ANNOUNCED that about 260 couplesattended the dance with the proceeds ($442) going into OVER 500 PERSONS voted dur- the AssociatedStudent Body fund.

He said students should see him if they have had items stolen or haveinformation concerning thefts. Edens Hall, Highland Hall and High Street parking areas have been hit. y. DEAN MCDONALD SAID that "WESTERN IS MAKING a great step forward by offering Russian nextyear," Trustee Marshall Forrest announced this week. "Russian is an important language, and webelieve we have hired a first-rate instructor who has had background in language and linguistics, WilliamElmen-dorf," Forrest revealed. Â». ELMENDORF G R A D U A T ED FROM Lincoln High School (1938)and from College of Puget Sound in 1944. He majored in chemistry with minors in German andmathematics. After working several years as a chemist he entered the University of Washington(1948) and began his study of Russian. He went back into chemistry again but returned to the University in 1956. In 1957 he completed his work on his M.A. (to be confirmed in June), majoring in Russian.During his latest stay at the University he served as a research assistant on their machinetranslation project. "We did grammatical and linguistic work on a memory (or mechanical dictionary)for a machine which was to translate Russian into English," Elmendorf commented. He will teachRussian, Spanish and possibly some scientific Russian. ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR OF theUniversity Far Eastern Department, Lew Micklesen, gave Elmendorf his recommendation, "Mr. El-mendorf's extensive background in the sciences makes him an excellent candidate for the teaching of scientific Russian." Elections Social The A.S.B. Elections Board is sponsoring an After Water ShowParty from 10:00-12:30 p.m. at Edens Hall this Friday. It will be given for the whole campus. Plans arefor dancing, in the dining room to the live music of Don Gunderson's combo, card games, T.V. viewing inthe social room, and an opportunity to meet the candidates for the coming election. The Dean termed such dishonesty a "sad commentary." Although no leads have been turned up in the case, which has also been referred to city police, the Dean theorized that only a few vandals are at work. He called upon Student Body support to stamp out the thieves, by being alert and locking cars. IT WAS POINTEDout that taking something from a car constitutes breaking and entering. The Dean said "punitive m e a s u r e s" would be taken against the guilty parties. This would be expulsion from school, he clarified. McDonald said that any repentant thief could leave stolen books in a conspicuous place in a Collegeoffice. Lost and found items, he added, may be brought to the Business Office. SINCE NO TREND HASbeen established, the Dean said that if persons have been vandalized and have not reported the fact they should. He hoped additional information would be of help to College officials and local police. ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1958 May 16 - Page 2 ---------- P a 9 e 2 ,'â€¢â€¢" â€¢'* WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN May 16, 1958 Budget poses bDii gproDbii ems When the Board of Control cut into the Forensics budget Wednesday night it cut into only one of the sore wounds in the side of student finances. ~" It also cut into one of the big decisions that is going to have to be faced by student government one of these days. That decision is whether severalstudents are to be financed in their extracurricular endeavors to the tune of hundreds of dollars at theexpense of the whole student body, while that student body which is paying the bill never receives directbenefits from the money it invests. Board members Al Jung and Kirby Cleveland pointed out to Forensics Director Paul Herbold that one of the biggest student resentments against Forensics is that while thewhole student body pays more than #2,000 per year into the forensics program it never seesforensicans in action on this campus. These board members suggested that the forensics programschedule activities on the campus that could be viewed bv all students, so they could at least feel thatthey were gettinsr some benefit from the money they are paying into the program. Faculty advisor MoyleCederstrom hit the problem even more directly when he questioned whether the whole student bodyshould pay up to $100 a -person for the activities in which only up to 25 different people take part. Hestated he felt that money from all the students should be channeled into activities that benefit more thanan exclusive group of students. There are many of this type that come up, for consideration everyyearâ€”whether the Board should send individuals on far-flung trips at up to $500 a trip when the tripbenefits only the individuals, and ultimately whether every student should contribute part of his fees tobenefit one student. If the Board is looking for places to cut money in the future, we would suggest thathere is the place to cut. Perhaps it is time individuals at least paid part of the bill for activities that benefitonly themselves directly. Certainly it is time that Forensics scheduled some programs where studentscould feel they are getting direct benefit from their money? This is why dramas are produced on campus, why movies are shown, why Collegians are published, why athletic contests are held on campus. Theseare activities students want and pay for; they do not pay for them and never hear or see them except forthe trophies they win elsewhere or the trips they take. Here are some of the places to cut. It's time toput more money into the things that benefit the most people who are' footing the bill, and to be lessextravagant with those that only dubiously and indirectly benefit the people who are paying for them.â€”Ken Robertson Student teaching beneficial, but. As a sudent about to enter student teaching, I amreluctant to embark upon this phase of my training. Reluctant at least to enter it as it is nqw set up andaccording to the value placed on it by many of those who have already gone through it. As it is now setup, twenty-four precious hours of intellectual training are being sacrificed for the benefit of teachingmethods. To be sure, methods of curriculum should be studied, plus some exposure to classroomprocedures, but too much of this is not good as I see it. Heaven help the rosy-cheeked youth whoplunges into the realm of teaching armed with various and assorted methods of teaching, while at thesame time armed with nothing to teach. Maybe he could teach methods. The education department willpoint out that student teaching will better prepare the future teacher for the hours of his life that he willspend in the classroom. But to many, student teaching is merely an easy way to use up twenty-fourcredit hours. Surely, this sort of thing will not prepare the student to do a job. Al so. it is supposed toallow an individual to discover if he is really cut out to teach. Again I must point out that it cannot hope toduplicate life as a teacher in a rosy little atmosphere of student teaching. The student is submitted tonone of the bad sides of the profession, except through the medium of lecture. An individual can reallyfind out if he is suited to any vocation only by trying as it exists in actual practice. Student teachingcannot really tell you if you are suited for teaching. The fundamentals of classroom procedure arevaluable. The study of curriculum is even more valuable, while far and above either of these is intellectualtraining. Without a thorough grasp of his major and minor, a teacher cannot possibly impart them to his students, no matter what method he may have. Perhaps more emphasis should be placed on thematter to be taught and less on the method with which to teach it.

One week from Monday these students will go to the polls and cast their ballot on a proposal to raise student fees by two dollars per quarter. Facing a natural reductance to raise their ownfees, the voting students will have to thoughtfully evaluate the proposed use of this fee. There can be little question that Western is growing. The pains and conflicts that go with growth are ever present around us today. Classrooms are crowded, social facilities are strained, and, among the many other things, we find ourselves with a bookstore that was haphazardly designed for a normal school with an enrollment of lessthan 1,000. The present store manager estimates that only 40 students can get in the store at any onetime. Further, the space limitations prevent adequate clerking to serve more than half this number. Itmay be emphatically stated that the minuteness of the Co-op, Bookstore facilities are costing thestudents moneyâ€”this because the limitations have resulted in discouraging patronage in somedegree. "It took me ten minutes to get a blue-book; I was late to my class/' says one Co-op customer.This is a typical comment. The ASB's Co-op Bookstore committee and the Co-op Manager are, ofcourse, working together to make the best possible use of present facilities but the most obvious factremains that THERE JUST ISN'T SPACE TO SERVE ALL THE NEEDS OF THE. STUDENTCUSTOMERS. This is at no time more apparent than during book sales at the beginning of each quarter. Early this quarter the ASB's Co-op Bookstore committee asked the BOC for authority to initiate planningfor a new bookstore. The BOC granted this request and the committee, working with experiencedmembers of the SUB committee, began preliminary planning. That planning is still in progress. Thestudents will have ample opportunity to examine plans as they emerge and w i l l , in matter of fact,actually determine configuration of the store by supplying information and opinions to members of theplanning group. But now the time has come to consider finances. The need seems very obvious. HOWARE WE TO PAY FOR THIS? The first reaction may be, "Let George (in this case the Administration)do it." Unfortunately the Washington State Legislature has not appropriated money for bookstores. Withstudent unions this category of building is on the "out of bounds" list for legislative action. The Collegetrustees will not request funds for a bookstore knowing that such funds, as a matter of policy will not begranted. It then follows that the ASB must construct such, a store. There is no other source of funds.This may be only just since the Co-op store is a student store owned by the ASB. The present plan calls for a $2.00 fee per quarter. If this is instituted next fall (as a result of a favorable ballot this quarter) thenew bookstore IS ONLY TWO TO THREE YEARS FROM COMPLETION. If the measure does not passwe then will be without a new store for at least five, and most probably, six years. During the next sixyears the enrollment at Western will surge to at least 3,400. THAT'S 1,000 MORE STUDENTS THANWILL BE ENROLLED NEXT FALL. If students think that service in the present small store is hectic nowthey might mentally calculate what such service will be like with this almost 50% enrollment increase.That's not the end of it either. Enrollment ten years hence is predicted at not less than 4,800 students.These are Washington State Census Board predictions. College predictions, based on past enrollmentexperiences, place the enrollment at 5,000 in eight years. THIS IS AN EDITORIAL DESIGNED TOPROVOKE THOUGHT. For if student voters examine this question they will transcend the minor irritationover a small fee raise in order to achieve the pressing need of new and more adequate store facilities. Asto the extent of those facilities (what do we get for our money?) look to the type of store at the Universityof Washington. THE SELF-SERVICE CONCEPT WITH ITS EFFICIENCY WILL DOMINATE PLANNING AND EMERGE IN A STORE THAT WILL EFFECTIVELY SERVE ASB MEMBERS, FACULTY, ANDALUMNI. As an example, space for a complete line of paper-bounds will, in itself, stimulate theintellectual growth of Western. And in our intellectual growth is measured the success of our collegeand our graduates. Finally, if this editorial writer may be permitted a very personal comment here, Isincerely feel that I have worked on no other project in recent years that has more worth. I urge thepassage of the New Bookstore measure. R. L.

BY LYLE PRICE The Board of Control met twice thisweek in a successful attempt to squeeze down to size the 1958-59 Associated Student Body budget.ASB PRESIDENT JIM HAMILTON opened the Tuesday session 11 minutes late when a nine-manquorum was formed at 7:11 p.nr. Explained Hamilton, "It was assumed more people would beavailable at this hour. At the moment (7:10 p.m.) this seems to be invalid." BUT ONE MINUTE LATER,the President clasped his hands and told the quorum, "ignore the socks, tee-shirts, and tennis balls and cut the totals." First attacked was the baseball section of the Athletic budget. After six separateitems for a total of $830 had been cut, Board Member Kirby Cleveland interloped, "We've cut to wherewe were last year. Is that our plan?" APPARENTLY SUCH WAS THE plan, for just about the time (7:25 p.m.) that Finance Committee Chairman Ken Haag took his chair, another $335 was guillotined from the baseball budget. Haag was the eleventh, and final, Board member to arrive. Next on the Tuesdayagenda was football. AL JUNG, ASB PRESIDENTELECT, promptly proposed a $700 slice inequipment. A $790 increase for this item had been requested. Jung contended that the AthleticDepartment is wasteful, and said athletic clothing is "worn all over." The President-elect related thatschools represented at last weekend's Pacific Students President Association conference listedyearly-increasing athletic budgets as a main headache. HOWEVER, BYSTANDER CONRAD LEERtold the Board that after early football turnouts last fall, "I could hardly walk for three weeks because ofwearing . faulty equipment." ALL TOLD, $2,867, including $300 from the women's department, wassubtracted from the requested Athletic budget. The budget tentatively was accepted at $34,638 for themen's part, and for the women at $2,400. Wednesday, the budget was . again near the top of theagenda-at the regular 4 p.m. meeting. FACULTY BOARD MEMBER Dr. Moyle Cederstrom termed theFor-ensics budget "an insult to the Board," He based his opinion on the point that Forensics wassubmitting a request identical to last year's. Replied Paul Herbold, Forensics advisor, the requests are not in any way an insult . . . but constant." "Too constant," retorted Dr. Cederstrom. AL JUNGREPORTED students have ill-feeling toward the group because they don't participate on campus. Hecalled for a debate, possibly as an assembly, at Western. Herbold answered that the Forensicsprogram is not designed for assemblies, and termed the debates as of a serious, non-humorousnature. AFTER A $574 CUT, the Forensics budget was tentatively accepted. However, $531.15 wasalloted for the national tournament next year. IN OTHER BOARD BUSINESS Wednesday, it was movedto place on the next election ballot the question of a $2 increase in student fees in order to helpfinance a new Bookstore. The new constitution also will be on the next ballot. Ken Haag and AmeliaBellotti were chosen as Homecoming Co-Chairmen, and Mrs. Ray Ondracek was picked as summerCOLLEGIAN editor. Bob Dunlap was chosen summer business manager.

THE REQUEST, ASAMENDED, is for $2,597,085. It covers the 1959-61 period. â€” Exception to the first-proposedrequest concerns a new ventilation system for Old Main. It was voted down after a com- , ment washeard that no student had been asphyxiated yet in the 60-year-old building. Trustee Marshall Forrestadded that the $99,245 proposed for ventilation would be better spent on teachers', salaries. FORREST, A BELLINGHAM LAWYER, also suggested the College Health Committee consult with local hospitalofficials to determine if students can obtain civic medical service. A request for a $237,160 Health Center Building at Western was thus left undecided until the report is heard.

"I'VE GOT A PROBLEM, can you help me?" WITH THESE WORDS the Research Bureau springs into action to help solve the problems ofWestern students who need assistance for emotional, vocational, or academic conflicts which plaguetheir daily lives. Western students aren't the only people who receive help from~ the Research Bureau.Many times this department assists the Bellingham Juvenile Court, and many other cases which arebrought to the Bu- - reau's attention. The college also benefits from the vast wealth of informationobtained by this department. ACCORDING TO DR. WILLIAM BUDD, of the bureau, "Any problemswhich can't be helped by the student's academic advisers are often handled -by us. Many times thestudents come to us freely, and ask for help; other times they are referred to our department. All ofthese cases need special counseling, and if we can't help them we refer them to" someone who can."Dr. Maurice FreehiU, Director of Research, stated that the three counselors in the Bureau all haveDoctorate degrees, and all meet the requirements needed in the state of Washington. The thirdmember of this counseling group is Dr. Robert Zas-low. These men conduct their services according to how severe the case may be. THE BUREAU ALSO EXTENDS its service to the College. Its purposein helping the college can be divided into three sections. *1. It is the center for most of the institutionalresearch. The bureau studies inside problems of this institution, and tries to provide a solution. *2. Itis the chief administrator of the testing program. This phase of the Bureau's work includes the testing ofentering freshmen. It also scores many of the objective tests given by Western's instructors. *3. Itaids the graduate in his work.

Then in a doubleheaderplayed with Seattle Pacific, the Viks split; winning the first, 2-0, and losing the second, 2-1.

THE SWEEP OF THE TWO GAMES set the stagefor the Vikings to meet Central Washington for the Evergreen Conference title, May 23 and 24, atEllensburg. Against SPC, the Viking bats cooled off, but the pitching picked up. Larry Meyer pitched afine one-hitter in the opener, as the Viks won, 2-0. In the second game the pitching again stole the show from the batting, as the game went into an extra inning before the Falcons pushed across two runs inthe eighth to one for the Viks in winning, 2-1. .Coach Hubbard seemed a little happy about losingthe second game to SPC. It will let off a little pressure for the title game with Central. This will be thesecond straight year these same two teams have met for the title. Western won it last year.

HOW MANY OF YOU would like to havea crew at Western? I know that we have assorted crews here already, but I am referring to a racingcrew. There is no reason why we shouldn't have one. No one expects the Viks to sweep the I.R.A., but we have plenty of competition. There is UBC, and many of the bigger schools have frosh crews.

The Lutes' other firsts were taken by Searcy in the shot put andby the mile relay team of Jacobson, Sheldahl, Dahl, and Witmer. Gary Clark was CPS's sole winner, ashe high jumped 6 feet 2 inches. Don Trethewey and John Winterholler took turns winning the distance runs, Trethewey taking the mile and Winter-holler the two mile. "440" Phillips was once againvictorious in his specialty, as he split the tape in 0:50.5. Bob Jones finished first in the 880 yard run,with a time of 2:01.6. In the 120 yard high hurdles, Sam Martin, Dave Lang-ley and Tom Davis finishedone-two-three. In the 220 low hurdles, Davis and Martin took the first two places. The other Viking firstswere Jack Thompson in the pole vault, Jerry Ber-ringer in the discus, and John Merritt in the broadjump.

Sponsored by Fairhaven's Womenspace, the day's events included a slideshow, discussion about reactions to pornographic pictures, a visit to Great Northern Books, an adultbook store, and a final group discussion. About 35 women and 10 men participated in the firstdiscussion. Three men and about 20 women visited the bookstore. "Pornography is the essence of anti-woman propaganda," Sharon Janeschild, a WAVAW member said in her introduction to the slide show.WAVAW is concerned about a myth that women enjoy abusive treatment which they see perpetuatedby images used in advertising, record promotion and pornography, an information sheet â€¢ about thegroup explains. Pornography is responsible for violent acts against women, such as rapes and beatings,Janeschild said. About 40 slides were compiled by WAVAW and women Against Pornography, bothnational organizations. Pictures were taken from magazines such as Hustler, women's fashionmagazines and record covers. Subjects varied from bondage pornography, depicting women bound andgagged with various techniques, to child molestation. "Pornography is about power," Janeschild said. "Itturns every aspect of sex into violence and rape." The local chapter of WAVAW began organizing abouta year and a half ago. "One of the first things we started organizing around was album covers,"Janeschild said, specifically mentioning the Ohio Players, whose album covers depict women who havebeen brutalized. - Janeschild said covers of this sort usually are used by little-known groups to attractbuyers'attention. Twelve album covers were on display. They were donated by Zephyr Records andCellophane Square. The two Bellingham stores removed these records from their stands at WAVAW'srequest. After the slide presentation, the group was divided into male and female discussion groups."The reason for the separation is because the support of-being with your own sex makes thediscussion more open," Janeschild said. "A couple of the men there were angry that they were told to leave," said Albert Fields of 1312 24th St. "My reaction was that it was a good idea." A few womenalso disagreed with the move. The women's group discussed personal reactions to the slide show,which ranged from numb shock to intense anger. Also discussed were individual and group tacticsdirected at owners of stores selling pornography. The basic message was to express anger. "I feelafraiJ to go downtown. I'm afraid I won't be able to walk into a porno shop, and control myself," onewoman said. The group broke up and met in front of Great Northern Books, 1306 Railroad Ave. The three men from the workshop were already, inside when the women walked in. "It seemed powerful when thewomen walked into Great Northern," Fields said. Once inside, the women made loud comments about the store's merchandise. A discussion with the owner soon turned into angry yelling. The womenleftthestorescream ing. A final discussion of the day took place at Fairhaven Auditorium. About 10persons attended th discuss their reactions to the previous events. â€”Lori Johnson WOMENINVOLVED in Saturday's pornography workshop discuss the group's reaction after returning from adowntown adult bookstore, (photos by Rick Ross) Porno shop enrages women It started as a quietexamination of the contents of Great Northern Books at 1306 Railroad Ave., and ended in shouting andscreaming. A group of about 20 women and three men entered the store Saturday as part of aworkshop on pornography at Fairhaven Auditorium. Prior to leaving the campus the womendiscussed methods of expressing anger over exploitation of women in pornography. The first commentswere isolated but loud. "Look at these titles!" "Here's the gay section over here." "Look at this," onewoman said as she pulled a box from a glass display counter. "Do you always walk behind counters instores and remove things without asking for help?" the owner of the store asked as he replaced the box."I'll be happy to show you anything you're interested in, but please, ask for help." The small grouparound the counter wandered off to different areas of the store. The owner stood behind the counter for afew minutes before walking back to the front sales desk. Five minutes later it was difficult to deciphermuch of what anyone said. The owner was back behind the glass display counter answering questionsshouted at him by the group. "My name is Ross." "What's your last name?" he was asked. "That's mybusiness. I won't tell you because I don't want my walls at home painted," he said. More shouts. Moreaccusations. Ross's, voice was drowned out by three or four women shouting at him. A posteradvertising the workshop was hanging on a post next to the front desk. One woman noticed this."You knew we were coming. You changed the store around for us!" she yelled. "We've got your number. buddy," one voice repeated three times. "Let's get out of here!" one woman yelled as she headed for the door. As the first few members of the group left, the screaming started and the rest of the group pickedit up as they walked out. "Their behavior is very violent behavior,".Ross said. "Unfortunately, it'sbecause of their attitudes. Someone has hurt them in the past." He said he didn't mind having thewomen come in and look around his shop. What he objected to was their violence. "Our windows havebeen broken twice. They put melted solder or super glue in the locks. It cost me $65 to replace thoselocks," Ross said. . â€¢ "It's fanaticism, social fanaticism, just like the Ayatollah Khomeini," hesaid. â€”Lori Johnson A solar power satellite creates debate Boeing's energy answer is Grand Coulee inspace America's solution to oil blackmail remains in the future of Solar Power Satellites, a Boeing Co.spokesman said during a speech at the Northwest Regional Energy Conference. Orlando E. Johnson,Boeing's senior economist, said he envisions the Solar Power Satellite (SPS) as an aerospace structure capable of generating as much power as Grand Coulee Dam and 15 times as much as one coal-generated electrical plant. Johnson said such a satellite is more attractive than similar ground-basedsolar options because in space the sun's intensity is not affected by darkness and atmospheric orweather impediments. The satellite would be enormous, covered .with 20 square miles of solar cells, and weighing 160,000 tons, it would, produce 14,00Q megawatts of power. . The 10.5 billion solar cellswould reflect the sun's light to the satellite's .6 mile wide antenna, which in turn would transmit thatenergy in the form of microwaves to 22 square miles of receiving panels on earth. The SPS would belaunched in many shuttles and then assembled in space. Though its construction costs outstrip thealternatives, when fuel and maintenance costs are figured in, the self-propelled SPS is the easy winner,Johnson said. He claimed the solar satellite would generate electricity 30 percent more cheaply than coal or nuclear plants. He insists his figures are conservative. Johnson said the satellite will not face thevregulatory and pollution control costs which afflict coal and nuclear plants. And it will not share thecomplications of waste disposal, construction delays due to public opinion or eventual plant demolitioncosts which hamper nuclear reactors, he said. â€¢ . - â€¢ The three million tons of coal per . year'itwould take to equal the output of one SPS, not to mention the 110 million tons of sulfur such a plantwould emit over a 10-year period, seems to put coal operations out of the picture. He added the satellitewould have a life expectancy of 100 years or more, compared with 40 years for coal and nuclear plants.Though its earliest possible completion date is the year 2000, Johnson insists the technology isavailable today. Dick Barton, director of public relations for Rockwell International, space division, whichalso has been contracted by NASA to research the alternative, disagreed. He said the plan is "feasible,"but not until well after the 21st century. The process of collecting the sun's energy is "relatively simple,"he said, but the problems in transmitting more than 5 percent of that energy will delay the program evenlonger than Boeing estimates. Richard Lindsay, Western physics an astronomy professor and an expert on solar energy, was even more skeptical. Though he did not disagree on the question of technology, hesaid the shuttle costs are $500 per kilogram, To launch the entire structure, which weighs 160,000 tons,would cost more than $320 million. He estimates research and development costs at $40 billion.Considering Boeing's figure of $11 billion for construction, Lindsay said earth-based thermal (solarconversion) is a lot cheaper. He said the environmental concerns are among Boeing's top proprities,"because if we cannot pass through that hoop, there will be no SPS." He said it is not possible on paperto demonstrate what effect microwave radiation will have on life forms. "There is an exposure tolerancelevel, but that level has yet to be determined," he said. Barton said beaming the energy through theearth's atmosphere would increase the temperature of the planet by one.percent, "an insignificant"amount, he said- "People worry because the earth is getting warmer, while others say thank God it'swarmer!" he said. â€¢-Mike Brotherton ---------- Western Front - 1980 January 22 - Page 2 ---------- 2 Western Front Tuesday, January 22, 1980 Dixy's about face in re-election bid During an election year,politicians can be full of surprises and double talk. Gov. Dixy Lee Ray is no exception. At "her State ofthe State Address last week, Ray certainly proved her verbal adroitness. After the speech, the woman left standing.there hardly seemed like the same old Dixy we elected four years ago. Political maneuvering,her opponents called it, and none more emphatically than those who will challenge her for our state'shighest office come November. How else could you describe such an about-face as her stand to eliminate sex discrimination in state salaries, a subject she all but dismissed in 1977? If her chameleon routine upset her adversaries, the rest of our state's legislature was stunned. On the question of whether cross-country shipping of nuclear wastes posed a potential threat to the nation and the state, she was quotedas saying, last April, "I don't think there is any reason for concern." Yet Tuesday she spoke of a plan toban out-of-state shipments. Her own Department of Energy, which last month was doing a "superb"job,should be abolished, she now says, in favor of a stronger office. Still other reversals from the "old Dixy"include her new stance to restrict all new nuclear power plants to the Hanford reservation, and herabandonment of the idea to place a prison in either Kitsap or Pierce County. Ray has instead opted toincrease the existing Monroe facility by 500 beds. Her political opponents are justifiably upset. Ray'sradical change of thought on key issues has left her detractors with hardly an issue on which to stand. Ifwomen state workers gain equality, and if Washingtonians are not forced to live with prisons and nuclearreactors in their "bacV yards, does it matter that Ray has situated herself on the bt'hfef side'6f thefence"?' ' ' ' Of course it does. Voters should realize that Ray probably was considering her re-electionwhen she made these proposals. And only the passage of the bills she sponsored can tell us if herchange of heart is anything more than a political maneuver. Emotion not effective in gaining support ' Toexpress rage by screaming angrily over pornography is a tactic some local feminists argue will effectsocial change. How effective will this be when people who have anger directed at them label these women "fanatics"and are afraid of suffering property damage? Of what value is the social awareness thesetactics create? It is difficult to determine the intent of some feminists when - they encourage releasinganger as a method of creating social. ; â€¢a'WareriesS; The emotion comes through but the reasons for it don't. The validity of the feminists'cause is not the point of dispute. The tactics used in many cases are. Vandalism and emotional shouting matches do not sway public opinion to support a group perpetuatingthese actions. For a group that stresses "support" so heavily, they can't afford to lose any. In the end,people will remember the tactics but not the cause. we SMS iqArr T*= ute T gt;0 N\OT LBWÂ£:f WÂ£USVLU 7 KJE VUS bALU AMD 6c tkMEl â€”â€”-â€”-â€”Comment Olympic boycott argued PRO Do the Olympic dreams of American athletes justify helping Russia sell themselves to the world? To believe so would stretch the concept of sportsmanship to an absurd limit. Americans like to believe sports andpolitics should remain separate, but the Soviet Union sees no such distinction. The Russianssubsidize their athletes for one purpose only: to show Soviet citizens and the world community thesuperiority of Russia, and not its athletes. An Olympic boycott is the only effective non-military measureour country has left to deal with Russian leaders who have not been good sports with neighboringcountries. What should we be good sports about? Little things like invasions and mass executions? :By participating in the summer Games, the United States will simply legitimize a system hellbent onshowing the world a Soviet society loyal to the actions of Kremlin leaders. Nobody likes the idea ofdepriving our Olympic athletes their chance for glory. In the face of an Olympic system destroyed bythe professionalization of amateur sports, American athletes still manage to pile up medals withoutgovernment coercion or sponsorship. However, we cannot play along with Russia's big charade. Tothem this is not a sporting event, it is the biggest political eve . in- modern Soviet history. An Olympichost could not be all bad, right? Americans can claim that by going to Moscow they are not endorsingSoviet behavior, but the Russians will surely see it differently. They also will turn that difference ofopinion into more pro- Soviet propaganda. â€¢ Good sports or not, we cannot play along with theRussian charade for legitimization. Just ask an Afghan what good sports the Russian army are.â€”Gary Sharp CON One can just picture Pierre de Coubertin roll over in his grave every time a boycottof the 1980 Summer Olympics in Moscow is mentioned. President Carter first made reference to apossible boycott of the Summer Games in a televised speech nearly two weeks ago. Since then, the cry for a boycott has increased and Canadian Prime Minister Joe Clark has even offered Montreal as analternative site for the Olympics. Unfortunately, boycotting or taking away the Olympics from theRussians will not prompt the Soviet Union to withdraw its troops from Afghanistan, or make it think twice about performing a similar maneuver in the future. The modern Olympics were instituted under theguidance of de Coubertin in 1896. Ironically, dt Coubertin saw the games as a pacifier. "Should thisinstitution (the Olympics) prosper . . ."it may be a potent, if indirect, factor in securing universalpeace," he wrote shortly after the games in Athens in 1896. However, the leaders of the variousparticipating nations then, as well as now, want the Olympics to become a showcase for. theirathletesâ€”and no one else's. Thus, the games have become politically, more than athletically,competitive. I am a purist. Sports are sports and politics is politics, and ne'er the twain should meet. The Olympics have increasingly be lt;.- gt;me intertwined with world politics and, with such an obviouspolitical dilemma involved with this particular Olympiad, it would be a good time to divorce the two.The athletes are the ones with the most at stake in this matter. They are the ones who have trainedyears for this chance to prove their skills, not the politicians. They are the ones who have sacrificed many hours of their youth to possibly win a gold medal. If they decide they do not wish to participate in theMoscow Olympics while Russian soldiers still occupy Afghanistan, then so be it. But, if they stilldesire to prove their abilities against the best the world has to offer, let the games begin. â€”CraigBennett Editorial Policy Staff Reporters Opinions expressed in editorials reflect those of the WesternFront and not necessarily those of the university or the student body.

It isapparently.the right of the ignorant and uninformed to dislike what they do not understand. There may be grounds for criticizing the Serra sculpture, but they are the grounds of the trained intellect and thecivilized emotions. Your editorial makes a great deal of the fact that Serra has created a piece like thisone before, notably "Terminus" in Kassel, Germany. Apparently, Mr. Hookham is unaware that withinthe western tradition it is a time-honored right for an artist to explore the dimensions and variations ofa theme or idea. Van Gogh, for example, painted more than one version of "The Sunflowers, vAlexander Calder created a great many mobiles, Beethoven borrowed themes from himself, etc. etc. etc. As for the "simple test" of aesthetic worth of objects, i.e. would one keep a group of objects if theywere to appear in one's own backyard . . . what can one say? This is the old and erroneous notion thateveryone's opinion is equally true, or worse, that everyone's opinion is exactly the same. I can onlyhope in our misapplication of the democratic ideal we have not come to this sorry pass of same-think.Art needs to be evaluated and criticized by those who know art. It takes years of hard work to begin to understand and appreciate art. Bernard Berenson's opinions â€¢ have weight and importancebecause he spent decades looking, seeing and (dare I say it) THINKING about art. Would Mr.Hookham feel as qualified to criticize modern by-pass surgery, techniques of structural engineering orthe methodologies of modern scholarship? Mr. Hookham also denigrates the sculpture because thesculptor is famous. GOOD GRIEF! I have not, you will notice, expressed my opinions of the Serrasculpture. Neither did Mr. Hookham. The piece may be good or bad but that judgment must be madein terms of the sculpture itself. When I see art criticism on the editorial page (even bad art criticism) 1shall respond. Julian Riepe Director, Interdisciplinary Arts Program Bad reaction Western Front: Inresponse to your remarks of Jan. 15 on improvement in faculty evaluation, I believe there are manyinstructors who are interested in the same ultimate goal but find serious flaws in current practicesutilized in attempting to achieve them. Some faculty are quite actively engaged in independentlysoliciting colleague and student information on ways and means of improving courses andinstructional competence. What is needed, it appears, is a broader base of participation andcooperation. It is my recommendation that faculty and students begin to meet in some exploratoryseminar type sessions to initiate this cooperative venture. A sustained enterprise of this nature justmight help to bring about a higher quality curricular and instructional program. Don W. Brown Education Department Buy a painting Western Front: As with Mr. Feingold my first reaction to the $125,000sculpture between Carver Gym and Arntzen Hall was unfavorable. But, now that I have seen the finishedproduct my reaction has worsened. Most people I have talked to thought it was plywood covering ahole. Upon closer inspection, one discovers that it's actually the chemistry department's demonstration of oxidation of metal plates. Serra says "fuck off" when asked what it means. "Walk around it, walkthrough it." I still have yet to see what it means. If it means as much as the $55,000 India, we are introuble. Serra says that talk of ctist is unfair. "How much do buildings â€¢ cost?" Well buildings do costa lot, but the neat thing about buildings is that you can go inside and put them to use, not to mentionmost buildings look halfway decent. Buildings don't just sit there collecting bird doo. The next time we are in a position to acquire a $125,000 sculpture we ought to say "fuck off" and buy a painting.Tom Baker No art critics Western Front: Critical writing on art in this quarter's Front indicates to me adisturbing unwillingness to pursue questions beyond the usual "Is it art?" or "I don't understand it" level.I'd like to see people question these attitudes and keep their minds open to insights which might begained by exposure to a variety of art such as Richard Ser-ra's new piece, or shows presented by theuniversity's three galleries. When the Front does art-related articles, I would like to see it do careful,responsible reviews, not -Lettersâ€” explanations of what goes on behind the scenes at an art gallery.There are more important questions to be raised. I want to see articles on the art itself, not on theuninformed and off-the-wall comments of passersby. I challenge the Front's writers to develop theirown thoughts and original theories without depending on my, or others', opinions. There's no reason whystudents shouldn't consider themselves art critics; don't fall into the dangerous trap of letting othersthink for you. Instead, answer the question "Is it art?"and THEN get on to the real questions of "What isthis art saying?" and "What makes it unique?" Try to decide what it is exactly about the art in questionthat makes you uneasy or enlightened. I urge people to make general judgements such as "It's ugly"only after careful consideration of the art. Raise new questions, take responsibility for writing informed, thought-out criticism of the art. Professionalism should be the main goal. If you aren't sure about howto write an art review, read as many as you can by past and contemporary critics. Think for yourself.An open eye is the entrance to an open mind about art.

The program, called the "Career Aspirations Project," was made possible by a grant from the U.S. Department of Labor, said Jon Shadd, program coordinator of theBellingham BB/BSA chapter. The goal of the project is to provide the'child with a "career-oriented rolemodel," said Karen Hundahl, developmental coordinator of the program. The key to gt; its success isinteraction and developing a friendship between the adult volunteer and the child, she added. "It's nota babysitting service,"' she said. Each volunteer is expected to spend approximately four hours eachweek with his little brother or sister for at least a year. This time is spent doing things both personsenjoy. "Doing things together is a tool used to develop the friendship," Shadd said. The organization isseekingVol-unteers, Shadd said, who should be able to relate to teenagers appropriately and be willingto make a consistent commitment to the one-to-one friendship with the youth, she said. "The basic idea is that the child does need someone he can count on," Shadd said. To be eligible for the program,children must be 14 to 18 years old and from single-parent families. Most children are from low incomehomes, Hundahl said. "Since the children usually come from low income situations, volunteers can fall into the Santa Claus role," Shadd said. But the relationship is a two-way street and can be handled invarious fashions, he added. Hundahl and Shadd emphasized that volunteers assume no financialreponsibility for the child. Thirty volunteers are needed for the new project. They must be at least 20years old. Interested parties can learn more by attending an informational meeting at 10 a.m., noon or 3p.m. Jan. 24 in the Viking Union Lounge.

Hesaid the program may be used in school systems outside Washington such as North Dakota. Theprogram consists of five units, only one of which is complete. The other four will be finished by themiddle of this year, Monahan said. "The five units stress an overview of Canada, its people and majorissues of resource use, international relations, political developments and settlements," Monahansaid. The units are designed to complement existing high school courses such as social studies,contempor-rary world problems, government, history and geography, Monahan said. Monahan also saidthe units were designed to fit into regular classroom curriculum on a comparative basis. "This meansthe teachers do not need a Canadian history background since the contents are "You have to know alittle bit about Canada if you want to know something about the state of Washington." organized bystressing the understanding of Canada from the viewpoint of Canadians and Americans,"Monahan said. He added the units are self-contained, meaning that smaller schools that do not have the library resources on Canada can still implement the program into their existing courses. These unitswould also help the students gain a better view of Washington's historical background, Monahan said. "You have to know a little about Canada if you want to know something about the state of.Washington," Monahan said. The program also would give high school students a betterbackground of Canadian history if they want to pursue an education in the field of Canadian Studies atWestern, Monahan said. He said that if high school students decide to continue an education inthis field, they probably would attend Western because it is the only university west of the Mississippito offer a degree in Canadian Studies. Although some- teachers have taught Canadian Studies inBellingham high schools before, it has only been on an informal basis, Monahan said. â€”PaulTanemoto HEALTH HINTS man.u health services division of student affairs Caffeine. Good to the LastDrop? Coffee breaks are such a big part of our lifestyle that they are a subject in union negotiations. They give u s a lift and a change from the day's routines. After taking caffeine, you may notice a clearer flow ofthought and less depression and fatigue. Moderate use of caffeine poses no health hazard. 250 milligrams or about three cups of coffee a day seems to be alright. But you can exceed that amount easily becausecaffeine is found in substances other than coffee. Here is a run-down of the amount of caffeine found insix, ounces of some common beverages. Brewed coffee 100-150 mg. - Instant coffee 86-99 mg. Tea 60-75 mg. Decaffeinated coffee 2-4 mg. Cola soft drinks .. . . : 40-72 mg. Caffeine is also found in: Anacih,Bromo Seltzer, Cope, Emperin and Midol. Vanquish 32 mg. Excedrin - 60 mg. No-Doz 100 mg.Chocolate, 1 oz 5-10 mg. So you can see that three cups of brewed coffee, two headache tablets, andone cola drink would amount to 500 milligrams and the shakes. Does the caffeine in your coffee breakpose any health risks? That depends on your total daily intake. If you drink more than five cups ofcaffiene-containing beverages every day, and if y ou frequently use over-the-counter medications thatcontain caffeine, you maybe well on your way to being a "coffeeholic." Repeated large doses of caffeinecan cause jitters, lower blood sugar level that makes you feel tired, and irritate the stomach lining.Medical research has also documented these risks: 1) a relationship between coffee drinking and cancerof the lower urinary tract and bladder 2) an increase in the amount of fatty substances in the blood 3) anincrease in infertility and birth complications. The best way to judge whether you use too much caffeine isto simply notice how it makes you feel. If you a r e jittery or have trouble falling asleep at night, it might be wise to skip caffeine for a few days and see if t h e r e is a change in how you feel. Keep in mind thatmost regular coffee drinkers who give it u p "cold turkey" develop headaches for a few days. It's best tocut down gradually. There a r e a few hints for cutting down on your caffeine intake. You might try icedcoffee because one c u p of coffee poured over ice will make a large amount. The blends of coffee roasted with ground wheat provide less caffeine. Or you can grind your own coffee beans and savor the betterflavor like a liqueur. Even "cafe au lait" will lower your intake of caffeine especially if you use one-half cupcoffee and one-half cup hot but not boiling milk. ---------- Western Front - 1980 January 22 - Page 5 ---------- Tuesday, January 22, 1980 Western Front 5 the Arts The Western Front's weekly arts lt;fcentertainment section Truck-driving escargot-eater honored / "Snail Eater's Waterloo" provides achuckle for English professors Knute Skinner (left) and Ken Symes who are conducting a contest forpoems on the theme of escargot-eating. (photo by Rick Ross) Whimsical contest sponsored by profsSnails sent Marc Quinquandon to an early grave. Now, a contest sponsored by English professors Knute Skinner and Ken Symes allows writers at Western a chance to write Quinquandon's elegy.Quinquandon claimed a world record in snail eating, but the creatures finally had their revenge on the367-pound native of eastern France. He died of indigestion in Nancy Hospital, France, after eating 72snails in three minutes and four seconds. Skinner and Symes are opening their contest to the world ingeneral and the populace of Western in particular. Deadline for submitting entries, which may be inany form or of any length, is Feb. 1. The professors have staged two other whimsical contests in thepast. Three years ago Carol Lichten-verg won first place with a poem based on the sloth dung fire. Atourist wandering through a national park in Arizona found a cave full of prehistoric sloth dung. BrianCopenhaver penned his entrants with her reading of "Ode to a Dismal Dominie." "It was probably moreeffective when she read it than it was on paper," Symes said. "It was about disguised and undisguisedmale chauvanism at Western." With the final line of her work saying, "Think of bucking the system ifyou were a she!" Smith's composition has become popular with women faculty and staff. "I think that'sKen Symes'way of apologizing," Smith said of her selection as judge. "He said he had never really beensure that he hadn't been chauvanistic picking the winner." Smith, who is "looking forward" to judging,approves of the less-than- appetizing topic selected by Symes and Skinner. "I found out that it's really alot of fun to see what academic people come up with given an odd topic, and this one is odd enough,"Smith said. "There should be some real wild ideas on this one." "Before I found out I was going to judgeI played around with a way to honors two years ago when Symes and Skinner selected a headline fromthe Bellingham Herald that read, "College professors said to be gloomy over lot in life" as the impetusfor creativity. Copenhaver chose Abela'rd, a medieval scholar famous for his love letters. There was nocontest last year, and without a press clipping from an Associated Press story, this year too may havecrawled past without a test of humor and poetic ability. The story of Quinquandon was found on Symes'office door, left by an unknown visitor. "We just look for odd items," Symes said. "We've been wrackingour brains trying to think of a new topic. When Knute saw this on my door he said, 'This is it'."Compared to the turnout for the other contests; the escargot elegies are really rolling. Only seven entries were submitted in the sloth-dung fire competition, but Symes and Skinner have received ten snailpoems already. Four students, three staff and two faculty have turned in elegies to the professors andformer Western theater student Gail Sherman mailed her entry from Alaska. Titles of submitted pieces include "A Snail's Revenge (or You Are What You Eat)"and "Snail Eater's Waterloo." Teamwork is also at play in the competition.. Fifteen teaching assistants in the English department are using the group-effort approach to write a winner, Symes said. Traditionally, the runners-up have been treated to a freebeer at "Fast Eddie's," a local tavern that will again house this year's festivities. Those wishing to readtheir own entries may do so on Feb. 10, while those contestants not present will'have their submissionsrea lt; for them. Maureen Smith of Western's public relations department is the only judge selected bySymes and Skinner so far. A runner-up in competition two years go, Smith received more applause,laughter and cheering than the other poem idea," she added. "The stuff I was coming up with was pretty sickening, so I can imagine what people will write." Elegies of Quinquandon might turn some stomachs, but his demise is spurring creativity here. "Some of us get caught in the day-to-day," Skinner said."This is a little bright moment in the middle of the dark winter." "Even people who aren't submittingsomething tell us that they think this is a good idea," Symes said. "They say we need something lightduring winter when things get gloomy." Quinquandon's death is also opening lines of communication atWestern. "The thing I like about it is that it breaks down artificial barriers that are between the facultyand staff and the students," Symes said. "Students walk up to you and start a conversation whereotherwise they wouldn't." Just as long as the conversation isn't a dinner.

The winner may join nine other finalists in thenational festival at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washinetnn. D.C. this spring.Also attending will be Gregg Thomas and David Marks, two actors from Western who were chosen tocompete with 19 others from four states for the prestigious Irene Ryan Acting Award. Thomas andMarks were nominated for their performances in Tom Stoppard's "Rosencrantz arid Guildenstern areDead," Western's entry in the ACTF. The show, Full Circle's first production, will compete with a playfrom Seattle University and plays from Pacific University and Lewis and Clark College of Oregon.Thomas and Marks will compete with actors from Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Alaska. Full Circle isWestern's touring theater group. According to Thomas, the Irene Ryan Acting Award was set up several years ago by the actress to recognize outstanding young college actors. Ryan, who played Never adull moment with Western actors Gregg Thomas (left) and David Marks as they rehearse a scene for theupcoming Irene Ryan Acting Awards, (photo by Rick Ross) Granny on "The Beverly Hillbillies"television show, died just a few weeks before she was to present the first award. Every year sincethen, the memorial award has continued to give a $750 scholarship to regional winners and a $2,500scholarship to the national winner. This year the ACTF regional competition is scheduled for Feb. 6through 9 at Bellevue Community College. "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead" will be the firstentry, performed at 8 p.m. Feb. 6. Well-known drama educators and directors will join a nationally-known playwright to judge the public performances. Marks, who went to the regional competition in Portlandlast year with "The Shadow Box," said the â€¢Irene Ryan award is associated with the ACTF.Competition for the award is somewhat different, though. Each entrant must perform a six-minuteprofessional audition that includes two pieces, a monologue and a dialogue. Marks added that "it feelsgood to be right in there" with other outstanding actors of the region. The theater at the Bellevuecollege is much larger than the Old Main Theater that "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead" wasdesigned for. But Marks doesn't anticipate any problems in transferring the show to the large stage thatenables the audience views from three sides. "We've got a pretty good idea of space," he said, becausethe cast has been rehearsing on the larger stage in the Performing Arts Center Main Auditorium. FullCircle will take "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead" on tour this quarter to high schools inWashington and British Columbia. The tour also will include scenes from Shakespeare's "Hamlet" thatwill be performed in classrooms. Tour stops"are scheduled for Burlington, Chehalis, Bellevue,Olympia and Abbotsford, British Columbia. Director Tom Ward said the play was difficult to producebecause "it's about language, it makes great demands on any actor, particularly college students,because verbal nuances are central to the play's meaning." The main goals of the tour are to getstudents interested in theater and to motivate young actors to continue working hard to strive forperfection, Thomas said. â€”Grace Reamer J o e JHartin's "Whatcom County Sports Headquarters" LET US HELP YOU GET OFF TO A i* GREAT START Phone(206) 733-1610 / ^ IN i 9 80 703 West HollyStreet iÂ£ Bellingham, WA 98225J^! 4?

We received $350 in monetary pledgesand over $200 in record album donations, not only from the local record stores, but from people who feltthey could part with recordings to improve our jazz collection. Special thanks to all those who donatedvaluables and money, and to the persevering dj's who gave of themselves to make it happen: RipRobbins, Dan Smith, Mark Kelly, Ray Downey, Brian Boston, Bob Scheu, Jamie Kahle, and especially to Charles Tomaras, who originally inspired the marathon and set the mood by hosting non-stop jazz onthe air for 40 straight hours. The results are being realized immediately, with nearly 30 albums addedto our jazz library, and, in the next 3 months, at least 4 full length presentations from the National Public Radio Jazz Alive series. We will also be purchasing rare and obscure recordings with the pledge moniesleft after renting the NPR tapes. The success of the jazz marathon has encouraged us to continue ourfund-raising efforts for better non-commercial alternative programming. Get ready for the first KUGSCLASSICAL MARATHON to take place during Winter Quarter finals week, March 17 through 21. If youcould help with answering phones, setting up for live broadcast during the marathon, or by bringing coffeeto the all-night dj's, contact Dan Smith or Brian Boston at KUGS. Why are we going to raise moremoney? Because this time the money will be specifically used to improve our classical music programsand library. Presently, classical records make up only 7% of our total collection. We also need to pay for the monthly charge for our direct line to the WWU Concert Hall. And now with an impending increase inbroadcast power, it's time to think about stereo (a major aesthetic improvement). International Women'sDay International Women's Day.

It was sent off only two daysbefore an FCC imposed deadline for responses from 10 watt stations to recently enacted legislation. The new regulations required all 10 watt stations to move to an "unprotected" (from interference caused byother more powerful stations) area in the commercial (92-108) part of the FM band. In order to remain at.its present position of 89.3, KUGS was required to increase power to a minimum of 100 watts. Afterseveral meetings with the Association Students Board of Directors in October and November, a Seattleengineering consultant was contracted to do the preliminary study. In early December, the AS Boardauthorized the filing of the application. Permission from the FCC to increase power has severaladvantages: we will stay at 89.3, the protected non-commercial portion of the band; the signal will begreatly improved throughout the Bellingham area. Listeners out of town will also have better reception; the signal could be. majdeuatereo, (ridiculous.. a t ^M watts). . . . . . . . . , . . , . . , . â€ž'*r*"' SJ J J DailyProgram Schedule no a. a a o 3o Â® Â© Â® : | Sat.

"I enjoy getting people involved with my music," the 39-year-old folk singer said after his Friday night performance at Mama Sundays. "Itis something I can share and experience with others." Kweskin's performance in the Viking UnionLounge attracted about 400 people, who demanded an encore with enthusiastic cheers. Kweskin is theformer leader of the Jim Kweskin Rag Band, popular in the '60s. Two of the members were Geoff andMaria Muldaur. Kweskin said Maria gained "her first popularity" with his band before she went on torecord "Midnight At The Oasis." During his performance, Kweskin gave one reason why he stoppedplaying with the Jim Kweskin Rag Band. "I grew to hate kazoos," he said jokingly. "It was five years ofsomebody blowing a damn kazoo in my ear." Folk music will never be as popular as it was during the'60s, Kweskin said. "Now folk music is not big at all but I have a good following and I get peopleinvolved." Kweskin sings traditional folk songs while he plays either the banjo or acoustic guitar. Among his 22-song performance Friday night were "Chattanooga Choo Choo," "Java Jive," "You Are MySunshine," "Swing On A Star" and "She'll Be Comin' Round The Mountain." Other songs Kweskinperformed included "Lazy Bones," an appropriate title for the slothful feeling it created, "Eight MoreMiles To Louisville," written by Grandpa Jones of "Hee Haw" fame and another tune, "Morning Blues."Kweskin's music is easy to sing along with because each has a ttory to tell, and the lyrics are simple.Last week I thought I was liberated. It really wasn't that big of a deal except it was an excuse not topay for dates. I hate to say "but that was before reading Warren Farrell's 'The Liberated Man'"â€”especially since this particular book of the quarter looks an awful lot like cutesy pop psychology onits face. Unfortunately, that is what needs to be said. The book showed me that liberation isn't sosimple, and getting liberated (from traditional sex roles) might be a wonderful thing indeed. If onehas the guts. You may remember Farrell as the man who coined the term "subliminal stimulation" inreference to the techniques of certain advertisers whose real advertising messages (variousrepresentations of sex and death) are presented to our subconscious, rather than conscious, mind.Those earlier observations of Farrell. and the commentary that NOW FEATURING LUNCHEONSPECIALS W $188 LUNCHEON SPECIAL l Includes: , 2 pc. chicken Roll Choice of potatoes gravy, baked beans or cole slaw LUNCHEON SPECIAL Includes: 2 pc.

It will help you everyday, it went along withthem, were pretty remarkable, and they helped me get past two very early weaknesses in "The Liberated Man." One of these weaknesses was the quiz at the very beginning of the book ("Would you buy yourson a doll?" "Would you smoke an Eve cigarette in public?") and the other was the introduction ofFarrell's non-sexist vocabulary immediately following it ("te," "tes" and "tir" for "he," "his" and "him"when referring to either sex). The most impressive things about the book were the variety of topicscovered, obvious amount of time and research put into the ideas presented. Farrell hits on everythingfrom sex (doubts, myths, heterosexual, homosexual, group, etc.) to the Super Bowl, and generally doesit with admirable readability and humor. He advocates men taking an equal responsibility forhousework, taking care of the kids half the time and giving little boys will .brighten all the way, if youboth released last week and on sale keep on the sunny side of life." Friday at Mama Sundays. Kweskinhas made 14 albums during his career, including "Lives â€”Chuck Mingori Again" and "Swing On A Star," _ book review (sons) dolls as often as toy trucks, and manages to do it without coming off as a"sissy" or a "wimp." He is a smart man, and he appeals to men on the basis of what we will get from the breaking down of traditional sex roles. What we will get, according to Farrell, is more job freedom,more honesty, and, probably most important, more interesting i:and . appealing mates. â€¢It seems tomake sense that a liberated woman, with her own career-and interests, who is willing to and capable oftalking as well as listening, and who is a partner in the deepest sense, would indeed be more interesting and stimulating than a stay-at-home slave. My language reveals my personal prejudice on thispoint, but surely even the most traditional of men can appreciate the boredom of a woman whoseinterests range no wider than "the house and the kids." The book is good, without a doubt, but is notwithout flaws. The 'ast 100 pages or so are devoted to men's and joint (men and women together)consciousness-raising groups. The last three chapters explain how these groups are formed, whattopics they cover, and extensive accounts of actual meetings. I personally wasn't too interested with it. It seemed to be a "start ,y.our^j3wh-.. .^ojisciousness-raisihg group" harcf-sell. What struck me is thatwhile these groups talk and talk and talk, they don't really achieve an awful lot. Except, perhaps, toproduce a general "feeling" among their members. In fact, Farrell's whole book is like that. He hitsalmost every conceivable topic, but really doesn't offer solutions to very many problems. He talksand talks and talks, and all he really achieves is to produce a general feeling. Maybe, though, that'swhat consciousness-raising is all about. â€”Rudy Yufy KELLER SUPPLY COMPANY GENERALOFFICES 3209 17th Avenue Wert. Seattle.

Thatis the opinion of Ruth Weiner of Huxley College who spoke here as part of the Northwest RegionalEnergy Conference. Weiner and Orville Trapp of the Washington Public Power Supply System spoke on"Three Mile Island: A Turning Point for the Nuclear Industry." Both agreed the nuclear industry hasgrown too quickly to assure adequate safety standards for its power plants. Rapid growth and profits aremore important to the industry, Weiner said. A "horsepower race"â€”the building of more and morepowerful plantsâ€” was one reason tough safety checks were ignored, Trapp said. The NuclearRegulatory Commission has finally put a limit of 1200 megawatts on future plants although "there isprecious little real experience" operating current plants of 800 megawatts, he noted. The belief within the industry that a major accident was so improbable it couldn't happen explains why it did occur at ThreeMile Island, Trapp said. No one planned for a "sequence of little events" that eventually added up to a big accident, he added. Weiner said that since the 1960s, each power plant built has used a new design,making it difficult to establish* safety criteria. However, a desire within the industry to "standardize" isgrowing, she said. To develop meaningful safety standards, Weiner suggested that nuclear proponents"postulate the worst possible accident so we can prepare for it." She also recommended that the publicbe informed of the highest, not the lowest, cost a proposed power plant could reach. "The public has aresponsibility to keep asking questions about nuclear power," she added. Burglary suspect arrestedSunday Western's Safety and Security apprehended a man at 9 a.m. Sunday morning, allegedlyattempting it breaks down artificial barriers to open a vending machine in the Arntzen Hall basement,Sgt. John Brown said. John D. Holmes, 26, was taken to Whatcom County Jail and booked on chargesof second-degree burglary. Student Security Officer Darrell Knutson said he found Holmes while making his random checks of buildings. After hearing noises from the hall, Knutson came upon Holmes tryingto pry open one of the three vending machines, he said. He radioed for a security officer to come toapprehend the man, he said. Brown arrived in five minutes to question Holmes. Holmes, not a student,was carrying a canvas bag filled with "possible burglary tools" such as a broken screwdriver andhammer, Brown said. He also had a large amount of change in his pockets, Brown added. Security hasnot yet discovered how Holmes entered the building. During the questioning, Holmes claimed he entered through an unlocked door, Knutson said. Holmes gave his address as a boat slip in Squalicum Harbor,but Security has not been able to confirm it, Brown said. Holmes was arraigned yesterday inWhatcom County District Court. Energy answers blowing in the wind? Although the Northwest probablywill never be as dotted with windmills as Holland's dikes, some people in the wind power business areoptimistic about its future as a "renewable energy resource." In a lecture Thursday night in the VikingUnion lounge, attended by about 70 people, a representative from the Boeing Co. said 400 to 500 windturbines could be in operation in the state by 1986. Arved Plaks, a senior specialist engineer fromBoeing, said a unit of four "MOD-2" wind turbines would soon begin operation 50 miles east ofPortland, Ore., near the Columbia River. The power generated from these would become part of theoverall power supply,, he said. The MOD-2 wind turbines, which cost about $2 million apiece, are set towork with an average 14 mph wind. The turbine is built with a rotating section on the top that pivots a300-foot single-blade containing wind sensors. These devices determine the pivotal direction of the"upwind design" turbine. On a slightly smaller scale, Ed Kenn'ell, founder of Seattle-based Clean Energy Products, said a lpt of wind potential exists along the West Coast for smaller wind turbine operations.Kennell's main clients are telecommunications organizations and remote or isolated dwellings. Hesaid wind-powered signal towers for telecommunications are more efficient, despite a price tag of about $3,500. Bellingham has an average wind speed of 9.8 mph, which is adequate for a small wind turbine,he said. An average small turbine is 120 feet high. Energy potential increases with height, he said. Aproject for Chuckanut Ridge, where winds average 12 mph, was considered but did not develop becausethe "exclusive area would probably make more enemies than friends," Kennell said.

IHMJ â€¢ gt; * * â€¢ gt; Sports Durant-led Vikings edge Eastern in 75-68victory You can bet Eastern Washington University coach Jerry Krause is kicking himself for lettingWestern's 6-foot-2-inch guard Ron Durant get away after the Screaming Eagles dropped a 75-68decision to the Vikings. Friday night. Durant, who traded uniforms in the off-season from Eastern toWestern, scored 10 points, grabbed a team-high six rebounds, dished out four assists, drew twocharging fouls and brought the partisan Western crowd to its feet by blocking a shot by Eastern's seven-foot center Uli Sledz. Barely audible after the game, Krause said Durant "played a pretty good game."Durant left Eastern because he was engaged to a girl at Western, Krause said. "Marriage had nothing to do with it," Durant said. "He (Krause) treated me like crap. After 1 separated my shoulder he acted asif I wasn't alive." "I was promised a scholarship my sophomore year and that didn't happen, so 1 decided to look for another school," he said. "I'd heard what a great guy Chuck Randall (Western coach) wasfrom Clay Henry (teammate at Oak Harbor High School) who plays on the junior varsity team, and assoon as I saw the campus I knew where I was going," Durant said. Whether it was Krause's coldshoulder, or Cupid's arrow that brought Durant to Western, Randall is not complaining. "He did a goodjob," Randall said. "The best thing is that he played with a lot of poise under pressure." While Durantwas providing the spark for the Viking flame, Kevin Bryant muffled the scream of the Eagles. Bryant hitthree long-range baskets midway through the second half, enabling the Vikings to build a 10-pointcushion. A slam-dunk by Rohn "Fly" McCoy, who paced Western on the night with' 19 points, gave theVikings a 66-56 advantage with 5:58 left on the clock. After a 20-footer by Eastern's Tony.Revak,Western went into a delay game that almost backfired. Two steals by Eastern led to a rolling hook byDon Carves, and a George Abrams layup that pulled the Eagles to within six points at the 2:43 mark.McCoy and Scott Smith answered with a basket and a free throw for Western, but a hoop by Abramsand two turn-around jumpers by Vic White sliced the Vikings'lead to 71-68. White, who scored 21 points in a losing cause, fouled Durant with 45 seconds remaining: Durant canned the ensuing free throws toensure a Viking victory. 1 Ron Radliff hit his 21st and 22nd consecutive free throws to account forWestern's final points. Randall was not totally happy with the final score. "We were up by 10 at home,and we barely pulled it out," Randall said. "We should have ran away with it, but Eastern is a toughteam." â€”William Senica Western 75, Eastern 68 Eastern 36 32-68 Western 38 37-75 ~ Eastern:White 21. Henley 15. Abrams 10, Cran-iton 6.

However, the team did not fare so well, losing 41-6 to Central and 38-7 to Simon Fraser.(photo by Todd Mason) ' The Western wrestling team knew they were in for a pair of tough dual matchesbefore the weekend started. But they never thought things would turn out as poorly as they did. TheVikings won only three individual bouts while losing to Central Washington University, 41-6, Fridayafternoon and Simon Fraser University, 38-7, Saturday evening. Anton Ehinger was the only winner forCoach Harry Smith in Friday's match against the Wildcats. Ehinger pinned Central's Mark Cavanaughwith 45 seconds remaining in the first round of the bout to account for Western's only points of theafternoon. Saturday'night did'not go much better as only two Vikings were able to come away with winsover Clansmen wrestlers. Shelby Glidden was victorious as he edged Ted Nishikawa, 9-7, in the 146-pound match. Ehinger then continued his weekend success by taking a 16-8 decision over SimonFraser's John Dwyer. Unlike Friday's match, however, severar other matches were close. Jerry Lelli,Western's 181- pounder, stayed with the Clansmen's Steve Marshall but eventually lost, 5-2. BobJones probably experienced the biggest disappointment of all. He was tied with Nick Kin-iski (a Blaine High product) in the heavyweight match at 3-3 when he went for a takedown with 15 seconds left in thebout. But Kin-iski countered Jones' move and won, 5-3. The wrestlers will be on the road this weekendas they travel to Salem, Ore., to meet Willamette University in a dual match on Friday. Saturday theywill participate in the Portland State University Invitational.

The Vikings romped past the Lewis and Clark Statae warriors Friday, 85-39, and easedpast the University of Idaho Vandals Saturday 70-56. The Vandals' 10-game winning streak wasspoiled by the Vikings who raised their Northwest Empire League record to 4-0. Western Coach LyndaGoodrich said she expected a close game but the Vikings stretched their 36- 28 halftime lead to 19points in the second half. "The Vandals rely on their fast-break and full court pressure, but we handledboth of them," Goodrich said. Western 70, University of Idaho 56 Idaho WWII 28 24-56 36 34-70Idaho: Sobotta 10. Regan 10.

Then, the effects of theprevious night's win took their toll and the Viks went down . . . a long way down. After taking animportant 75-68 win "over Eastern Washington Friday night, the men's basketball team traveled to thecampus of Trinity Western College in Lang-ley, British Columbia, to take on the Canadian version ofAthletes in Action Saturday. The Viks staved close for a half, then fell, 107-88. The score wasclose atthe half, 49-47 in favor of Athletes in Action, mostly due to the efforts of Kevin Bryant and Ron Radliff.The two guards combined for 31 of their 41 points in the first twenty minutes to offset the inside play ofAIA's Melvin Williams, who had 17 of his 24 tallies in the first half. Western, with its second unit playingmost of the time, whittled the lead down to eight at 65-57 ;with little more than eight minutes |to play.However, Athletes in lAction ran off the next 10 points and remained in command the rest of the way.Harry Sheehy, a 6'5" guard, led the AIA squad with 27 points followed by Williams' 24, Fuhr-mann's19, and Weakley's 15. Bryant and Radliff paced Western with 21 and 20 points, respectively, whileRohn McCoy added 18. The win boosted Athletes in Action's record to 33-5. The game was an exhibition for the Vikings and will not go against their record which stands at 6-8. Western will host PacificLutheran in another critical NAIA District I game at 7:30 tonight in Carver Gym. The Lutes arecurrently fighting the Viks for third place in district standings behind Central Washington and Alaska-Fairbanks.

It will incorporate six, and at times eight, slideprojectors and three screens, plus interesting narration and stereo music. The Western OutdoorProgram is sponsoring a Mountain Visions presentation of "Winter Wilderness Adventures" and"Eclipse," 7:30 p.m. Thursday in the Viking Union Lounge. Admission for the two shows is $1. Themulti-media show, which incorporates lap-dissolve and multi-image visuals, is produced by two activerecreationists, Katy Flanagan and Gary O.Grimm. "Winter Wilderness Adventures" will feature scenes from a ski tour in the Idaho wilderness and pictures from an expedition climbing the Denali face ofAlaska's Mount McKinely. A question-and-answer session will accompany the presentation. "Eclipse"will feature pictures taken during the total solar ecliipse last February. The presentation will beaccompanied by a reading of Gino Sky's story, "Eclipse." Sky has written four books of poetry. His newbook, "Appaloosa Rising, The Legend of the Cowboy Buddha," will be published in May and eventually be made into a movie. These presentations are acting as a fund raiser for a cooperative wildernessadventure. Grimm, Flanagan and the other trip participants plan, to sail to Antarctica from NorthAmerican and then ski across the continent. They plan to develop another presentation from their trip.Phil Woosnam, North American Soccer League commissioner, discounting fears that Americans findsoccer bewildering: "The rules are very simple. Basically it's this: if it moves, kick it; if it doesn't move,kick it until it does."

On the same evening a debate will also be staged at Cheney, since both teams have two teams in the field, one representing each side of the question. The question under discussion is one of interest and importance to all. Future teachers should be especially interested since questions of this type will come up in history and civics classes. The question is stated as follows: " Re- (Continued on page 2.) 10 BE ESTABLISHED SEHOME HILL IS SET ASIDE AS MEMORIAL TO MISS IDA AGNES BAKER BY RURAL LIFERS AUDIENCE TAKEN BACK TO EARLY DAYS OF RURAL LIFE A program that was in every way characteristic of country life was given by the Rural Life Club at Friday's assembly. The entertainment which was in the form of a play, was written and directed by a member of the club. The first act consisted of a ladies' quilting party at the home of Mrs. Price, where everyone was much annoyed by the son of the hostess, who was playing sick that he might stay home from school. The next act also took place at the Price home. The neighbor men, who were helping Mr. Price with his harvesting, were eating their noon-day meal and their appetites gave evidence of a hard morning's work. The last part was a community meeting at which everyone was present. Trie much admired school teacher had charge of the meeting until she called on Mr. Coughlin as Mr. Price to lead in singing. Club songs were sung and* the program ended with a yell for the R. L. C. It was whispered that this was the best student program given this year; at least, it was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone. •• At Wednesday's assembly the students unanimously voted to begin immediate plans for the establishment of a bird sanctuary as a memorial to Miss Baker. This decision followed a splendid address by Miss Wilson, upon the meaning of bird sanctuaries, and why such a memorial by our school would be particularly fitting and expressive of Miss Baker, and by a few words from Mr. Bond, who added emphasis to the profit and beauty of such a move. Miss Wilson, who was intimately associated with Miss Baker for many years, spoke touchingly and beautifully of the spiritual influence of Miss Baker upon all with whom she came in contact, by her enthusiasm, her love of the outdoors, and her sympathy and insight into human nature. " We are not establishing this bird sanctuary for Miss Baker, but for ourselves," explained Miss Wilson. She stressed the fact that our memorial to Miss Baker must be living full of joy of life, and full of beauty. Miss Wilson reviewed the history of bird sanctuaries and described the most important ones in this country. Her talk was inspiring and a beautiful tribute to Miss Baker. Mr. Bond told of the number of birds in this country and their value as given by the Department of Agriculture. He spoke of the excellent- thing it is for us and those following us to establish this fitting memorial. B. S. N. S. NORMAL SCHOOL ORATORS TO THESPIANS ST.

He took snow as an example of God's work and stated that the three things that impressed him most are the great variety of snow flakes, their lightness in falling, and the value of snow as a reservoir. Rev. Temple-ton spoke of Perey Shelley going into the Alps as an atheist, but how the poet changed his views after a study of nature. The fact that we had snow for the first time this winter the morning of the address made it particularly appropriate. B.S. N.S. ALKISIAH NEWS COLLEGE TEAM DROPS FAST GAME TO NORMAL BY CLOSE MARGIN On Thursday evening, February 10th, the Thespians held their regular business meeting.

The cast was: Miss Ella Amelia Ruth Jamieson Miss Artimicia Madge Callahan Beth Newson Fay Durham Kate Newson Mary Collins Bridget Mildred Maule Grace Harlowe Mrs. Edna Anstett At the next meeting a Riley program will be given.

Miss Wilson is. an old member and the Alkisiahs are very glad to welcome her as our sponsor. B.S. N.S. First Junior Mixer Is Well Enjoyed The second Junior mixer of the year was held in the large gym Friday night when group No 1 got together for a big time. Of course they had it. Due to the careful planning of the committee, not a moment was wasted. Probably the most exciting features of the evening were the contests, which consisted of a guessing game; a grapenut eating contest, a cracker eating contest and an eloping contest. Valuable prizes were awarded to the winners. AH were ready to eat when the time came and were not disappointed when they rounded the corner into the cafeteria and saw tables laden with punch and cookies. It is hoped that the mixer next Friday night will be as successful. B.S. N.S. Mr. Kolstad spent the week end in Seattle. B. S. N. S. DEBATE — CHENEY VS. BELLINGHAM Thursday, February 24 Play Whatcom Tonight The basketball team from St. Martin's college at Lacey lost to the strong Blue and White team last Saturday evening by a score of 23-19. This game ranks as one of the best that has been played on the Normal floor this year. St. Martin's has a good team and though defeated played a close game, the Normal leading most of the time by from two to four points. The St. Martin's team won the respect of all Bellingham basketball fans by the clean, scrappy game they put up. The game was devoid of that common disturbing factor known as " crabbing," and all commented upon the good sportsmanship shown by the St. Martin's team. St. Martin's scored first on a free throw. Jenkins evened up the account (Continued on page 2.) L GIRLS OEFEAI SOUTH SIDE PLAYERS ARE UNABLE TO KEEP PACE WITH NORMAL Last Wednesday evening in the Normal gym, the - Normal Girls' basketball team defeated the team from the Fair-haven High School. The score was 36 to 24 in favor of the Normal. This is the second game that the girls have played this year, having lost to the Whatcom •team by a score of 19 to 21 some time ago. The Whatcom team was defeated recently by the Fairhaven team and the Normal girls hope to win a decisive victory when they meet the Whatcom girls on the Normal floor the 26th of this month. Wednesday's game was the first that the girls have played on their own floor. Several are out-spoken in their admiration for the plucky girls from the high school because of the splendid fight that they put up against superior odds, both in weight and experience. The Fair-haven girls made more points in the last half of the game than did the Normal girls, making 16 points to the Normal's 11. However, they were not able to overcome the large lead obtained by (Continued on page 2.) ---------- Weekly Messenger - 1921 February 18 - Page 2 ---------- 1 THE WEEKLY MESSENGER, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 1921 NORMAL GIRLS DEFEAT FAIRHAVEN TEAM (Continued from page 1.) the Normal girls in the first half. They hope to regain their honors when the return game is played on the Pairhaven floor some time in the near future. Elsie Minor was the high point getter for the Normal team, annexing 19 of the total number of points, while Geraldine Tyler secured 17 points. Both of these young ladies are splendid players at the for.ward positions and are members of the Junior team that won the Kline cup this year. Miss Crosby Jackson, of the Whatcom High School, refereed the game. After the game, the Normal girls entertained the members of the visiting team, the referee and the coaches of the two teams with a dinner in the cafeteria rooms. Mr. Bowsher, who acted as scorer, was also a guest. After the dinner Mr. Carver officiated as toastmaster and called upon various ones present for speeches after which the company adjourned thanking the girls for the splendid time and dinner that they had provided. B. S. N. S. ST. MARTIN'S COLLEGE LOSES TO NORMAL (Continued from page* 1.) by putting one in the basket a moment later. St. Martin's then secured a field goal and led 3 to 1, but were unable to maintain their lead and from that time on the Normal forged slightly ahead, followed closely by their rivals from Lacey. The score at the end of the first half was 14 to 10 in favor of the Normal. The summary follows: Normal (23) St. Martin's (19) Yorkston f D. Hanley • M. Jenkins f R. Hanley Cone c W. Smith Burpee g Enright Inge : g Stone Substitutes — Mathes for Cone; Cone for Mathes; Mathes for Yorkston; McLaughlin for R. Hanley. Normal scoring,: Field goals — Yorkston, 2; Jenkins, 3; Mathes, 2. Free throws — Jenkins, 9 in 18 tries. Total, 28. SECOND TEAM LOSES The Normal School second team lost an exciting ' contest to the Presbyterian Sunday School team, leaders of the Church League, by a score of 28 to 21. Normal led at the close of the first half 9 to 12, but during the second half the Presbyterian team rallied and won the game. Bowsher, second team forward, was taken out of the game early in the first half on account of a sprained ankle. He is improving, and will soon be back in the lineup. PLAY WHATCOM TONIGHT This evening both the Normal first and second teams will go against the corresponding teams from Whatcom, in the Whatcom gymansium. Whatcom High tion would be that Whatcom and Normal are about evenly matched. The students of the Normal will march over to Whatcom as they did for the first game. An admittance fee of twenty-five cents will be charged. B.S.N.S.

Aside from the benefits derived from such a discussion every student of B. S. N. S. should be out to help cheer his team to victory. The teams have been working hard since the Christmas vacation in preparation for this debate, as have also the coaches, Miss Cummins for the affirmative team, Miss Boring of the negative, and Mr. Hoppe, who has general charge of the debate. The affirmative team, composed of Mr. Lambert Craver, Miss Hilda Topp and Mr. Herbert Hansen, will remain in Bellingham to meet Cheney's negative team, which is coming here to debate. Our negative team, Miss Elsie Minor, Gordon Squires and Reuben Aim, will make the trip to Cheney. Every loyal student of B. S. N. S. will be on hand next Thursday evening. There will be no admission charge to students so there is absolutely no reason why anyone should not be present.

We publish parts from it: From.the standpoint of strict justice there is greater merit in the request of the B. S. N. school for an appropriation sufficient to build a new girls' dormitory than any request of a similar character that has been presented to the Washington State Legislature. There see.ms to be a general misunderstanding, even in Bellingham, of the status of the Normal dormitory question, and unfortunately, so rebellious have some persons become at the thought of high taxes that they seem to make it appear that the dormitory would represent an extravagant use of funds. At present there are between 600 and 700 students- at the Normal School, and the enrollment is certain to increase with the development of the state if adequate facilities to care for the increased en-is working overtime, determined to win I rollment are provided.

So far Normal is the only school in this part of the state that has conquered Whatcom. Last week Whatcom beat St. Martin's College by four points. The evening after we also beat St. Martin's by four points, so the natural supposi-which was condemned by a state survey commission five years ago, not merely as being an unsightly, poorly arranged structure which destroys the harmony of arrangement of buildings, but which contains " dark labyrinthine halls" and — what is worst of all — constitutes a " great fire risk." In that connection the commission recommended a new dormitory for the Bellingham Normal similar to that at Cheney. Since then Cheney has built another dormitory and now has two. Ellensburg also has two and Bellingham has none — except Edens Hall. In pursuance of this recommenda-tion, however, the legislature of 1919 appropriated funds wherewith to purchase a new site and build a dormitory. The site was bought and excavated, but building costs were so high that $155,000 available to apply on a new building was turned back to the state by the Normal trustees with the expectation that it would be reappropriated this year when it was hoped, building costs would decrease. It will cost approximately $250,000, it is estimated, to build and equip the proposed dormitory. The housing problem at the Normal is serious. The Bellingham School is more than twice as large as Cheney in enrollment, more than three times as large as Ellensburg; yet it can accommodate only 40 students of its 600 or 700 on the campus. It is thus without a social center needed by an institution most of whose students come from outside the city. Besides, as the Sehome hill section becomes more popular as a residence district, the students are being crowded out. Bellingham has taken pride in its Normal School because it is one of the city's finest assets. Today Cheney is advertising itself as the best equipped Normal School in the United States. These are the facts of the dormitory situation and of the appropriation which about to revert to the state to be given to some other institution. Whatcom legislators are determined that it shall remain the property of the Bellingham Normal — and they are right. B.S.N.S. BROWN'S STUDIO, Sunset Building B.S.N.S.

During our short lifetime we have noticed that whenever nothing is ever said about a person or thing, either good or bad, there is generally something radically wrong with that person or thing. Applying this rule to ourselves we have concluded that there is something wrong with us. Whenever an exchange reaches us we turn to the exchange department to discover what is said about us. We find nothing. We are not endeavoring to .secure bouquets, but we would like you to tell us our faults once in a while anyway. If you can't find anything to kick about say something because a few words ought to pass between friends at least. We often wonder what you think of us — what picture you have of us in your minds. You probably have a picture of a gruff old man with all the earmarks of a villian. As far as we know this is not true, although some of our acquaintances maintain that it is true. So, don't be afraid, but speak up and say "howdy-do" anyway. Our western brethern wil know how to do this especially. # # * We said that none of our exchanges ever mentioned us. Pardon us, we forgot the Pantograph of the Kansas City High School. In fact, we have not recovered from the shock yet. Our editor was so infuriated that her home school should say such things that she mailed a letter to the exchange editor of that paper immediately. Perhaps some of you remember that article we had in our paper some time ago in which we mentioned that our assistant librarian had discovered a mis-dated paper. Would you believe it — the Pantograph took it literally! It said that our librarian ha,d " discovered a paper of that school dated Friday, August 31, 1817." Say, fellows, we wonder if that is the sort of history that they teach in Kansas? Said paper must have been put out;by the Hudson Bay Fur Company, if it ever was published, which we doubt very much.' * * * While we feel in the mood, we wish An optometrist is one who measures t h e; refraction of the eye scientifically and finds t h e lenses needed with-o u t t h e u s e of drugs.

We were sorry to read the biased opinions expi'essed by that paper and re-gretted that the other members of that school should get the idea of us that they seem to have. No matter what has been said, though, we still stand for good, clean sportsmanlike action on the part of our teams participating in contests and on the part of our student body. We wil admit the possibility of regrettable circumstances but what is the use of " crabbing" ? Crabbing never got anyone anywhere.

The acoustics of the room The Messenger would like to take this means on behalf of the students to express to the various clubs our appreciation of the programs and plays they have given at the different assemblies this year. All the programs have been very good and much talent has been displayed. Judging by the past, we are assured of some excellent programs in the future and are looking forward with anticipation. During the rush of the days at the closing of the semester, let us stop a minute and think of the life of Miss Baker and her influence for good in this school and community. Now that she is gone, may the bird sanctuary take the uppermost place in our minds as the one thing nearest her heart for this school. It has been Miss Baker's dream and desire that our Normal campus might be set aside as a sanctuary for our feathered friends, the birds. When we stop to consider, we realize of what value such a reservation Would be to the Normal, the training school and the community as well. To prove our love and devotion to Miss Baker, is there a more fitting and suitable memorial which we cduld raise? Shall we not respond to the call and give our support to this, the dream of Miss Baker's life? AWAKE, MUSE! We are growing invincible in athletics, our graduates are sought for as teachers from for away states, our summer school is famous throughout the Northwest, our reputation is growing daily — but not so the realm of music. We lack school songs. True, we possess a few beautiful school songs, fitting for cer- I lin occasions, but they are overused and cannot be stretched to ijover all requirements. . All the large colleges — Yale, Harvard, Princeton, Stanford — have glorious songs, fighting songs, that set one's blood leaping with fierce pride in one's school. Where is ours? Our " Blue and White" is not especially appropriate for a rousing basketball game. It serves well for one number on the yell and cheer program, but should be followed by others, of more stirring character. In fact, the " Blue and White " loses its dignity and beauty when used too repeatedly. Some schools copy or adopt songs and yells from larger schools. That may serve as a temporary measure but wouldn't it be better to have some of these victory making songs composed by oiir* students? Perhaps a book of Bellingham Normal songs might be collected, and published. Surely our beautiful surroundings ought to be reflected in music. Who will immortalize our school with new songs, as the " White and Blue " has done? " HEAR YE KODAKERS " In practically every assembly for the last month someone had had to remind both students and faculty that their pictures were due for the Klipsun. Now that ithat is over, let us turn our attention to the taking of good, interesting snapshots for the annual. Everyone will agree that half of the value of the books lies in the worth of the snapshots. This1 week the weather has been ideal for kodaking. As spring advances the conditions will be still more favorable. In the coming days make your kodak your constant companion and get some good pictures. Not only will they be of interest to you, but also to every reader of the Klipsun. " When the deed is done, with whatever good motive and effort you could put into it, lay it aside as over and done. Neither worry over its imperfection nor take pride in the manner of its doing." Revenge yourself on your foe by making him your friend. Making the best of the present betters the future. LAST WEEK'S ISSUE That the author of " Overtones " struck a response in the heart of many is proved by the number of approving contributions, anonymous and signed, which have flooded The Messenger box this week. Due to lack'of space, we are unable to print them all. But the consensus of opinion seems to be that the student body as a whole wants quiet in assembly, and feels strongly a few are making all the disturbance. Won't those few realize they are but a part of a loyal whole, each unit eager to co-operate with any plan that will be for the interest of our school? We feel certain this is the case. And that henceforth our assemblies will be. quiet — so quiet that one sitting in the back may hear as distinctly as on Those of our subscribers who are on the mailing list will doubtless wonder why they are receiving their Messengers so late. The fact is that the business manager had an accident and was unable to mail them last week and so they are receiving last week's issue with this one. B.S.N.S. INTERESTING BOOK BY NORMAL STUDENT Mrs. Isabel Wister, formerly a student here, who has returned after several years' absence, has given to the public a most delightful book, entitled " Romance of the Rockies." The little book from cover to cover is overflowing with lively and interesting romance. Mrs. Wister has the insight into the greatness of the universe, and the thorough understanding of people and it is just this that makes her book so delightful. Her characters live upon the pages, while the descriptive words and phrases are particularly striking. The book was first published in 1907. A very beautiful poem, "A Book Lover's Dream," is the advent to the book- There are five short stories, so full of vivid interest, and color that one may well wish to read more of the work of this entertaining writer. The book is. divided into chapters as follows: I — "The Strike of the Bonny Bell." II — " The Wooing of Rose." I I I —"The Ghost of Marchmont." IV — "A Campaign of Cupid." V —"A Hat from Heaven." - — B . S . N . S . YE OLD TIME CONCERT Keep ye all in mind the evening of the 28th of February, a Monday night.

The teachers of the state are anxious to know the newest in education and hence there are many calls just now on the Normal School for help in getting the pupils started in this line of work. In answer to a call in this line, Mr. Bond spent Thursday and Friday of last week in Anacortes, helping teachers of the sixth, seventh and eighth grades start their pupils in project work in arithmetic.

STUDIO ART CLUB The Studio Art girls spent a very enjoyable evening at the home of Misses Druse and Boring. The first part of the evening was given over to discussion and works of Jessie Wilcox Smith, very interestingly presented by Misses Mills, Ring, Smith, Woods, Thomson and Smedburg. * Lunch followed, and the hot biscuits, marmalade and chocolate reminded the girls of home. Shadows and mystery clung around the rooms in the latter part of the evening as the girls sat around on cushions, incense filled the air, and ouija" answered questions. Then that dark woman kept lurking in the background, who, just when the fortune teller predicted prosperity and success spoiled it all. Nothing can dishearten the Studio Art girls, however, so the old woman had no bad effect. ---------- Weekly Messenger - 1921 February 18 - Page 7 ---------- THE WEEKLY MESSENGER, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 1921 7 .'lllimillllllllllltlllllHIIIIl Ilimilllllim Illjllllliriitll rtJIIll Mill rllitu 111 n rurrii inn rn in rijc S^iiiiiiiiiiiiiuiuiuiiiinii i i mi mill until iiiitiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii ijfg |L Faculty Notes || ljfiiiuiimmiiraiimiimiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiuiiiiraiimuiuiuiuiiiiiuuiiiiiiuiiimmimiimmmmir.= lliiiilllliiiiuililiiiiiniiiiiiilllillllililllilHillllitllililllllllllllllllilllllllllllliiii; Mr. Rindall gave an illustrated lecture on Norway at Field last Friday evening. * * * • Mr. Carver is being called upon a great deal this year to referee basketball games in nearby towns.

B.S.N.S. TRAINING SCHOOL NOTES The recent edition of the Junior Messenger -is a credit to any school. The organization and material is good. The reports on "What I Enjoyed Most This Year" were especially interesting. One of the best was written by Lillie Haugan on "Why I Like My Club," which is as follows: " I belong to the Girl Scouts Club. I like it because we take hikes and learn to do various things that are handy. We also study about nature. When we go on hikes we collect different things such as leaves, small limbs of trees, shells and rocks. We choose between several things which we like best and the one that is chosen we take up. I took swimming as I like it best. " We have eight in a troop. Bernice Musser is the leader. The first hike we took was to Chuckanut Point. We started at 8 o'clock and came back at 12. Miss Morse, is our captain and she taught us the Girl Scout pace." The grammar, grades in connection with their work in physiology, .have completed some very artistic little booklets illustrating "How to Beautify the Home," "Healthful Homes," "Occupations of the Home," etc. THE EXCHANGE (Continued from page 3.) have out there. Some are inclined to think that the .children in the training school are a bunch of rowdies, but we are sure that this little paper will do a great deal to dispel this false impression. We wonder if this is the result of the teachings of the many would-be pedogogues through whose hands the children have passed? * * * The Manualite reports that 1,475 students are now enrolled at that school, the Kansas City (Mo.) High School. They are also advocating an R. O. T. C. for the Kansas City schools. * * * Twelve men received their football " N " - sweaters at a recent meeting of the Normal School at Aberdeen, South Dakota. * * # Evidently the College of Idaho is in the same. fix that we are as they give reports of their' basketball games being played on high school floors. 'Sfunny that large institutions have to secure high school floors for their contest because of unsuitable conditions in their own gym! * * * The monthly edition of The Exchange is out and, as usual, contains some very interesting facts and helps for those preparing or already in the teaching field. * * # The Explosion, has increased the size of its paper, has a new editor, 'nevery-thing. The day is fast approaching when the high school that does not have a paper of some kind will be a back number. The last edition of the School Progress was really more of a bulletin of the school than a paper of the student body. They had some very interesting pictures in this issue, illustrating different points of the school life., Nice picture on page 6, and what did you say the names of the young ladies were? * * # The staff of the High School Bugle has been revised and. is to start anew, also the Kelso High School is to have a literary society. * # * The Normal College Index has an interesting article on the " Project Method" which subject we are now studying. * * .* The Brookings School News, from Brookings, South Dakota, is another of our new exchanges. It is published biweekly by the stucfents of the public schools of Brookings and is a mighty fine little paper for a high school of that size. * * # Sixty students of the Los Angeles High School received 1's in their subjects last semester.

A real program was first enjoyed, musical numbers being given by Martha Thompson, followed by solos by Pearl Ingalls and later several readings by Florence Swanson. Frances Still gave a brief but interesting talk on the origin of St. Valentine, after which all adjourned to the big dining room, cleared for the occasion. Here the foolish program was led by Gerry Tyler as director of the sympathy orchestra and Armeda Fjellman as head of a very comprehensive spelling match. Games were played after which dancing ensued. Jello and cookies wound up the string of gaities, except for the distribution of valentines, which caused much merriment. WHEN CLASS IS DISMISSED A grayness and blankness of mind — the bell has rung. A word of dismissal and chairs make a sudden backward spring, feet are untwined and come flat down on the floor. Books, paper, pencils and wraps are hastily grabbed and there is a beginning of a stampede for a narrow door of exit. But someone leading the rush drops a pencil and there is a decided check in motion. A low grumbling breaks out which gradually rises in pitch until all have taken their several directions down the halls to other classes. — GLADYS RYAN. B. S. N. S.

The administration says the proposal,which would prohibit the riding of bicycles on campus sidewalks and pathways during regularly-scheduled class hours, is based on concerns for safety. Opponents of the proposal claim what the administrationmeans when it says 'safety' is really 'liability.' Concerns regarding the proposal were addressed Tuesdayat a public hearing inOldMain340.Theproposal, along with a memorandum summarizing Tuesday'shearing, will be presented to the Board of Trustees at its Dec. 7 meeting. Opponents of the proposalcontend Western is merely trying to rid itself of any liability for potential accidents betweenbicyclists and pedestrians on campus. "If this (proposal) is based on safety... putting bikes in thestreet is not going to increase the safety factor," student Mark Campbell said. Richard Neyer, student,said, "The university says it's concerned Students packed Old Main 340 restrictions. Many students feltthe with safety, but it seems like it's concerned with liability. If you put bikes on the street, then Western is rid of the liability because cars have insurance." Lance Olsen, Associated Studentssecretary/treasurer and a member of the Parking andTransportation on Nov. 27 to listen to the ParkingAdvisory Committee and voice their opposition to proposed bicycle riding administration ignored theirdissapproval. Advisory Committee which came up with the proposal, agreed the administration isprimarily concerned with liability factors. "Is this a liability tradeoff?" he said. "What's the purpose ofthat?" Moira Hopkins, the AS vice president for activities, is concerned the administration isn't listeningto what the students want. She cited studentelections the past two years, in which voters have opposedbicycle regulations by a two-thirds margin. "Itmakesmemad that they ignore the students' vote to not ban bikes," she said. "Regardless of what the students are saying, the adrninistrationdoesn'tcarclknowthereisaliability issue. The administration is worried about being held responsible forinjuries, but what will they ban next?" See Ban pg 3 Fairhaven stays south for winter as budgettightens By Mark Sabbatini staff reporter After more than two years of debate, Fairhaven College willremain in its present location. The proposed relocation of the school would cost too much time andmoney, according to Western officials. Acting Provost Roland DeLorme announced the decision toFairhaven faculty and students last week. The primary reason for the decision was anticipated budgetcutbacks, according to Fairhaven Dean Marie Eaton. "Given Fairhaven's space needs and what wasavailable on the campus and what was available in the budget, it became clear that to move to anewspace and to do it in the right way was going to cost more than the university could afford," Eaton said.DeLormesaidtheoptions considered would cost "millions" of dollars and might have taken until 1998 tofinish. "I thought there were two options if there was to be a move," DeLorme said. "One was to CollegeHall, which is the one we spent most of our time looking at. But, if we went to College Hall, there wouldhave to be extensive renovations inorder to fitthebuilding for the specialized purposes Fairhaven has."m addition, departments in College Hall, such as communications and journalism, would have beenmoved to Haggard Hall, where the chemistry department is now. DeLormesaidrenovations therewouldhave taken longer than projected due to budget shortfalls, which led to his second alternative. "Isaid if we're going to move Fairhaven, why not move them directly to Haggard Hall, which would save us a year and cut our costs," DeLorme said. The second floor has twice the space Fairhaven has now, hesaid. In addition, being closer to the Wilson library and the Humanities building, would serveFairhaven's curriculum better. But the amount of time required for this option also exceeded his initialprojection, DeLorme said, and "the end result wasn't worth it." He submitted the alternatives to Mortimer late last week, and they discussed them with Eaton. "The president prefers to have a summary of theoptions available, and then he and I and Dean Eaton sat down and talked about it and he decided."There was no strong disagreement," he added. "I think he did the right thing." Carolyn Dale, chair of thejournalism department, said she was relieved by the decision. "When we found out everyone in thedepartment was really relieved that we would be staying here. If we move in the future, it will bebecause we need to move," Dale said. She said she expected Fairhaven to relocate"uptothepointwhenGov.Boothaskedcolleges to look at budget cuts. I was still somewhat surprised by thedecision, however." Fairhaven student Benjamin Curry also said he was surprised by the decision. "Ithought we were definitely going to move. But, considering the monetary situation, I guess it doesn'tsurprise me that much." Curry said his main concern about the decision is finding space for faculty andprograms. DeLorme said integration of Fairhaven and other colleges at Western would be attempted in other ways. "We had talked earlier about other things that can be done programmatically to encouragea greater degree of mutual participation. He (Mortimer) felt very strongly we would have to fall back onthat, at least for the time being," DeLorme said. Eaton said some integration has already begun, citing a Western political science professor teaching at Fairhaven this quarter, and a new bi-quarterlynewsletter aimed at Western. "I think we hare been doing some things over the years its been here thathas taught it some things that would help other college at Western. We also have things to learn fromfaculty and other colleges at Western." See Unmoved pg. 2 ---------- Western Front - 1990 November 30 - Page 2 ---------- 2 The Western Front November 30,1990 New campus directory is less filling, say students Unmovedcontinued from pg. 1 By Bob Horn staff reporter The 1990-91 campus directory is now available oncampus, but few students will find the new directory of any value because it lacks addresses and half ofWestern's phone numbers. Student addresses were removed from the directory following discussions by the Liter-Hall Council, the Housing and Dining Committee, an ad hoc group from theAssociatedStudentsBoardofDirectors and some university staff, said Connie Copeland, associate to thevice president of Student Life. Copeland explained that over the past few years more on-campusstudents have been harrassed over the phone and at their homes by students that have acquiredaddresses and phone numbers through the campus directory. "Harrassment has ranged from repeatedrequests for dates that aren't wanted to obscene phone calls to even coming to the person's address andrummaging through mail boxes or hanging outside rooms," Copeland said. Because of this concern,Copeland made a summary of discussions from IHC, the AS and university staff, which indicatedaddresses should be removed from the directory. President Kenneth Mortimer and his cabinet reviewedthe summary and decided to only print student names and phone numbers in the directory, Copelandsaid. The number of phone listings is actually about the same as in past years, said Peter Harris,director of the physical plant. Because the names are grouped closer together without addresses, themissing numbers are more apparent Phone numbers for the student directory are compiled directly fromthe registrar's office. During registration, students' phone numbers are keyed into the computer systemand then the listing is given to the physical plant staff, Harris said. Harris said few students check theirphone numbers during registration or have them entered into the computer which accounts for the lownumber of phone listings. Many students are displeased with the directory, said DeeAn Nakagawa, ASvice president for residence life. "What I've been hearing is it (the directory) sucks," Nakagawa said. "I'vehad numerous people come up to me and say it sucks. All (the directory) does is say these people go to this school." Nakagawa said she feels the number of phone listings is simply inadequate and suggests a supplement to the directory may solve the problem. Missing phone numbers could be acquired throughUS West, Nakagawa said. Because the directory is self-supported through paid advertising and nomoney remains in the budget, students would have to pay about 50 cents for the supplement. "I don'tblame anyone. The system is inadequate, the product is lacking and itneeds to be improved," Nakagawasaid. "The damage was done for this year and a supplement is the only way to rectify the situation. Weneed to be sure it doesn't happen next year." Nakagawa recommended the system for obtaining phonenumbers be changed next year so students are aware their phone number will be in the directory andnumbers are taken after students have registered for their classes. "When I registered, all I was asked by the registrar was 'Is your home address correct?' and it was before I had my classes," she said. "I'mmuch more concerned with getting my classes than if my number is right and I had no idea that's howthe directory got my number." Other students have expressed similar feelings about the directory. Jason Glover, a sophomore, said, "I was a little disappointed that it didn't have where people lived so I couldlook up old friends. I'm sure there are people who would like to have their phone number in there but don't" Mark Riconosciuto, a junior political science major, also was upset with the quality of the directory. "Ithought the cover was ugly. They don't have enough phone numbers there â€” half are there, half are not"Riconosciuto said. "I don't like that there are no addresses. I don't know where my friends are." BothCopeland and Nakagawa mentioned they were interested in hearing feedback from students about thedirectory. Copeland said she would like to hear students's reactions to the directory, both pro and con.Nakagawa said she wants to know how students feel about a supplement to the directory. â€¢ LASTDAY FOR LATE COURSE WITHDRAWAL (for students with late withdrawal privileges) is Friday, Nov. 30.That date also is the last day to withdraw from the University. â€¢ WINTER QUARTER DEGREE ANDINITIAL CERTIFICATE CANDIDATES: All students expecting to graduate and/or receive a teachingcertificate at the close of winter quarter 1991 must have a senior evaluation and degree application on filein the Registrar's Office in Old Main 230 by December 7.

"Wehaveno satisfactory answers at this point," hesaid. "That's also a matter for Fairhaven to look at as part of their strategic planning. How do they handle the fact that they're obviously going to be in that space for a long time?" Relocating Fairhaven hadbeen considered for years, according to DeLorme. Fairhaven's location on the third floor of one of thebuildings in the Fairhaven Complex is considered inadequate for future growth. Serious considerationbegan after Mortimer was appointed president in 1987 and saidhe wanted to integrate Fairhaven andWestern's main campus. In addition, Fairhaven's current location is consider too small toaccommodate additional students and faculty anticipated in the future. There are also numerousproblems needing repair, according to administrators. Making significant changes to the building wouldbe too expensive, DeLorme said. A decision was initially expected last spring. After announcing acommittee would be formed to study the feasibility of moving Fairhaven to College Hall, DeLorme metin mid- April with Fairhaven faculty and students. A petition signed by more than 200 Fairhavenstudents and alumni was given to him outlining "essential guiding principles" for Fairhaven. Theseincluded independent control of facilities, no loss of resources and a contiguous campus. About a weeklater, more than 160 people staged a demonstration in front of Old Main, expressing concerns overFairhaven's future. Soon after, DeLorme announced a decision would be postponed until fall quarter. After several meetings of a Fairhaven Relocation committee, Western hired Seattle architect Susan Boyle todiscuss anticipated needs at Fairhaven, and to construct a blueprint to address those needs. Theblueprint avoided making specific recommendations, Boyle said. It focused primarily on office space,classroom needs and overall square footage and amenities needed in the next few years at Fairhaven. In a statement issued by his office in September, DeLorme said an announcement of Mortimer's finaldecision would be made in early October. However, it was delayed because of an exercise outliningbudget cuts requested by the state, according to administrators. Eaton said the most important thing to come from the deliberation was the communication with the administration. "We really felt that theadministration engaged in an open, honest dialogue about relocation. We were allowed to present allsides of tlie issue and I believe they were all taken into consideration. I think no matter which way thedecision had gone the faculty perception is that it was a reasonable process," Eaton said. DeLormevoiced a similar reaction. "I think the most important thing that came out of this process was that theFairhaven community learned there was no hidden agenda, and that we were not trying to destroy them.We were trying to improve it ," he said. "I think the most important thing that came out of this process was that the Fairhaven community learned there was no hidden agenda." Roland DeLorme, actingprovost Eaton said some integration has already begun, citing a Western political science professorteaching at Fairhaven this quarter, and a new bi-quarterly newsletter aimed at Western. "I think we harebeen doing some things over the years its been here that has taught it some things that would help other college at Western. We also have things to learn from faculty and other colleges at Western." Eatonsaid an example where Fairhaven could havehelped was when Western instituted a Introduction toCollege Learning class, similar to one Fairhavenhastaughtforover lOyears. i^k; ;-/ â€¢ Better to Crashat a Friend's Than Crash on the r Road. ---------- Western Front - 1990 November 30 - Page 3 ---------- November 30,1990 The Western Front 3 Ban continued from pg. 1 Others believe the administration isviolating students' rights. "The problem with this school is ignorance," student Chris Regan said/This (the U.S.) is a democracy. It should be for the people. This seems like a large injustice. Sixty-eightpercentof thepeople were againstthis . in a democratic vote. That should be a large influence on thisdecision." AS President Mark Aaserud said he is concerned the administration isn't listening to thestudents' concerns. But he said the trustees "have a good ear when it comes to the student voice.'.'George Pierce, vice president of business and financial affairs, doesn' t agree Western is only concernedwith ridding itself of liability. "That's not an accurate assessment. The safety issue has always beenthe guiding motivation (behind the proposal)," he said. "Liability is a question as well, but from myperspective its always been safety first." Opponents of the proposal are also concerned that Westernhasn't looked at enough alternatives to the bicycle restrictions. The committee has recommendedwidening of roadways and/or establishing bicycle lanes, improving road surfaces, creating ramps oncurbs and installing appropriate signs to inform the public of the areas to which bicyclists will haveaccess or restric- . tions. But those will cost additional money and take time. Jennifer Kubic, a graduatestudent, proposed Western look at speed limits and bicycle etiquette seminars instead of restrictionson the use of bikes. Opponents also feel the administration lacks enough data to support therestrictions and is taking hasty measures because of a fewphone calls and complaints. "You don't getcalls about non-accidents, all you ever hear about are phone calls from people almost getting hit,"Hopkins said. "You don't hear about safe cycling." Jeff Sadis, student, said, "We're hearing words likepotential andnearly (regarding accidents). But there are no facts. Why ban bicycles before there's aworking program of bike lanes?" "You don't get calls about non-accidents; all you ever hear about are phone calls from people almost getting hit." â€”Moira Hopkins, AS vice president Members of theParking and Transportation Advisory Committee admitted there are no statistics regarding the numberof bicycle-pedestrian accidents on campus. "We don't want any numbers, that's why we want toimplement this (proposal)," said Ernst Gayden of Huxley College of Environmental Studies, a formermember of the committee. But opponents contend there's not much of a problem with bicycle safety oncampus. . â€”"Yet regulations are being made to restrict the use of bicycles," student Dennis Lapchissaid. "Why not promote education in bicycle safety. I don't think we need more laws." Others wonderhow far-reaching the restrictions will be. "Does the university plan to ban cars from campus consideringpeople get killed?" said Antoni Wodzicki of the geology department. "I think the universityshouldstronglyrecommend the use of bicycles, especially at this time with the crisis in the Middle East.The university should send a message that bicycles are safe and do not effect the environment. "I agreethey (pedestrians and bicyclists) should be separated. But I believe bicyclelanes should beclearlymarked on all roads leading to campus. Secondly, there should be bicycle lanes on campus forbicyclists, not pedestrians." Aaserud said, "We do have a parking problem on campus and this (thebicycle regulation) does concern a lot of students," Aaserud said. "One primary alternative could betaken away." Photo by Brad Ellis Elsa Swanson, senior and recreation major, supported the protest inRed Square to oppose the proposed bike ban. Many protesters feel administrators have not looked atenough alternatives to the bicycle restrictions. Liberal studies prof leaves memories for colleagues ByDonna Fairchild staff reporter The sudden death of liberal studies Professor Ulrich Mammitzsch onNov. 19, has left colleagues and students at a loss for words as they grieve for their friend and teacher.Words come easily, however, when they have an opportunity to talk about Mammitzsch and hisimpact on their lives. Mammitzsch was walking to his office at Western about 12:45 p.m. when hecollapsed and was given immediate medical attention. He died of an apparent heart attack. Liberalstudies Professor Rodney Payton saidhe andMammitzschhadbeen friends for 20 years and hadcollaborated closely on a new translation from Flemish to English of Johan Huizinga's "Autumn of theMiddle Ages," forthcoming from the University of Chicago Press. "The important thing to understandabout Ulrich is that he was not defined by his discipline in mythology, religion and culture of Japan andChina," Payton said. "He was equally at home discussing Dante, Goethe and Mozart." According to abiography compiled by Payton and a colleague Mammitzsch was bom Dec. 15, 1935, in Rodishain,Germany. His father was imprisoned by the Nazis. He escaped from the Communists twice, once asaboy at the end of World War II when he and his sisters borrowed a horse from a local nobleman andfled with a few possessions. His second escape camein 1957 when, as astudentinEastGermany, he was accused of disloyalty to the party (he refused to vote in a one-candidate election). He reached the Westby train posing as a local commuter. He later referred to this event as his "flight to freedom."Mammitzsch held degrees from the University of Hamburg, SouthernUlinois University and theUniversity of Hawaii. Hecame to Western in 1971 as a specialist in the department of liberal studies inChinese and Japanese history and literature, but his knowledge included many other aspects of Asianstudies. He served as director of the East Asian Studies Program. Mammitzsch was renowned world-wide for his work in the iconology of East Asian Buddhism. During the last 10 years of his life he wasengrossed in the study of iconography of esoteric Buddhism, particularly the mandala, the symbolicdiagrams of the cosmos peculiar to those sects, and which believers used as instruments to concentrate their attention during prayer and meditation. Mammitzsch traced particular mandala to early medievalChinese prototypes and to the Indian metaphysical principles upon published through Western's Centerfor East Asian Studies. "Rather than focus on chronology, Mammitzsch preferred to emphasize themajor themes and symbols of society," Buell said. "He fit in with the real meaning of liberal studieswhich is an integration of Eastern and Western cultures. Western's liberal studies department,throughMammitzsch's leadership, was probably the only one in the country to do this. History ProfessorEd Kaplan says Mammitzsch was "the best of the lot" "I ruffled the dean's feathers and was the badguy; he was the soother, the good guy," Kaplan said. "He was fun to be with and said outrageous thingswith a poker face as long as possible." Archaeology and social anthropology Professor Herbert Taylorplayed cards with u'iH e was open minded, in tune with the needs of students and presented material in a challenging way." â€”Chuck Schencking which the Japanese and Chinese mandala were constructed.He had completed a major work, "The Genzu version of the Garbhadhatu Mandala," forthcoming from theInternational Academy of Indian Culture, New Delhi, and had recently completed a translation of DietrichSeckel's "Buddhist Art of East Asia" which was published by Western. Mammitzsch was well known inthe community and led several local tour groups to Japan. Central Asian History Professor Paul Buellsaid a festschrift (a collection of articles as a tribute to an honored person, usually done by one'scolleagues) for Mammitzsch will be Mammitzsch and shared breaks during evening and Saturday workbinges. "Once I needed information for a project which could have amounted to deep, time-consumingresearch. WhenI discussed theproject with Mammitzsch, he said that he had theinformation I needed. And he did. It was in his head, in a file or in a bookâ€”I don't know if he used acomputer," Taylor said. He added that Mammitzsch had an "intellectual integrity of the highest order."StudentCaroleeCurnmings appreciated the way Mammitzsch punctuated his teaching with down-to-earthjokes. "He had achild-like quality that was appealing," she said. Brandy Reed, a student of Mammitzch,said he was a man of passion in his teaching, personally involved in his subject and a good resource. "No one can fill his shoes," she said. "I feel he was experienced, intelligent and devoted to his class,mythology, religion society of Japan and China." FredStuben, student in humanities of Japan, likedMammitzsch's wit. "He held our attention with his odd, funny remarks. I would have taken another classfrom him, because I liked him. He was willing to answer questions andgave students every opportunity tounderstand the material." "Professor Mammitzsch was my mentor," Chuck Schencking said. "I changedmy major to East Asian studies because of him. He was open minded, in tune with the needs of students and presented material in a challenging way. I felt, comfortable withhim and was never intimidatedtalking to him. Most of all, he was effective in spreading his passionate enthusiasm for his subject toothers. He was the best instructor I've had at Western." Payton chose the following quote as a closingtribute to Ulrich Mammitzsch: "Although it is a joy to have the benefit of the good, it is a greater one toexperience that which is better, and in art, the best is good enough." â€” Goethe He is survived by twosisters, Ruth Kliewer of Schleswig and Renate Max of Naumburg, and nieces and nephews, Ursula andWolfgang Hilpert and Martin, Annette and Jurgen Max. Though Ulrich never married, he loved childrenand several children of department faculty caUedhim"Uncle" and count themselves as his survivors.Wolfgang and Ursula Hilpert donated Mammitzsch's large personal library to the East Asian collection atWestern. Other memorials may be made to that fund. gt; ---------- Western Front - 1990 November 30 - Page 4 ---------- 4 The Western Front November 30,1990 Food prices rise as labor costs increase By Marty Knutson staff reporter Western's food service prices rose due to a rise in labor and food costs, but prices are stillcompetitive with other state university food services, said Western's Food Services Director LarryStahlberg. Stahlberg said prices have increased since last summer by an average of 5 percent. He saidpart of the increase is due to the addition of new products that seem to fit the students needs better."We have annual price increases to reflect increased costs," Stahlberg said. Students may find the same items for less money somewhere else, but Stahlberg said Western offers service as well as seating,clean tables and a comfortable atmosphere â€” some things other places may not offer. Roger Oettli,business manager for University Residences, coordinates services with Marriott Corp., themanagement-end of the student food services. Oettli said Marriott has failed to make its targeted 5percent profit each of the past couple years. "Marriott's profit margin is very narrow at Western," Oettlisaid. He attributed this narrow profit margin to increased labor costs. Minimum wage has increasedtwice since Marriott first became the campus's food service company. Oettli said this has not affectedthe quality of service available on campus. Although revisions have been made, he said they arecontinually trying to provide an excellent food service to the students. Oettli has compared the foodservices at the University of Washington, Washington State University, Eastern Washington Universityand Central Washington University to Western's food service. He said, overall, Western provides the best service. "With some products, Western's prices are significantly lower," Oettli said. Oettli works withMarriott in making sure the students comments about the food services are carefully examined. He saidhe encourages all students to make comments so he can make sure the food services are providingstudents with the kind of service they desire. To expand the services available to students, Oettli saidWestern is working on the development of a debit card that students could use at any retail food outlet, vending machine or laundry facility. He said he would like to have such a system implemented within five years.

He said it was decided to use more than library cards for identification tovote because "a lot of students don't bring their library card when they go to dinner." A list of student'snames will serve as a back-up to determine how many people voted. "Any discrepancy will show up," hesaid. Sixty-five percent of the votes is needed to determine the fate of the magazines. If neither optionreceives that amount, the decision will be left to the AS Board. Flannery said, "The referendum is more agauge for the AS Board to see what students want done in their bookstore." He isn't sure any decisionwill be made through the referendum because people seem to favor both sides. "It's hard to get this big of a majority on an issue people seem to be polarly divided on," he said.

About 200 volunteers will speak with high school seniors around the state abouttheirexperiences atWestern, said Denise Mack, manager intern for the student-to-student program. The volunteers met with people from Residence Life and the admissions office Nov. 27 to prepare them with "the questionscommonly asked by prospective students," said Michelle McGrath from student-to-student. McGrathtold the volunteers to "basically tell them about your own experiences." Minority AdmissionsCounselor Sonia Arevalo said many of the high school students will want to know, "What do I need tohave done to get in to Western?" She continued by giving the volunteers some information to pass onabout requirements, but added that specific questions should be directed to the admissions office.Arevalo stressed, as did Assistant Director of Residence Life Anne Eskridge, the importance ofprospective students sending in applications for admissions and housing as soon as possible after Dec.1. Mike Noesen, president of the Liter-Hall Council, will make his second trip back to Auburn HighSchool as part of the Western Experience program. "I really like Western," Noesen said, "It (WesternExperience) was a good way to promote Western at my high school." He added that most students areinterested in the entrance requirements, residence halls and the general activities available tostudents. Mack said the admissions office wants volunteers to just give theirown experiences becausethey don't want inaccurate information passed on to prospective students. She added that studentexperiences can be helpful for incoming students because volunteers will often discuss "what theyfound difficult when they came up here ... and what they should have done while they were in highschool. These are things they can't get in a catalog." Western Experience is coordinated by thestudent-to-student program. This program talks with prospective students and plans campus tours, class visits and overnight stays, Mack said. The program is made up of six full-time students who work withthe admissions office to aid in the transition to college life, Mack said. She said her office answersbetween 30 and 40 calls a day dealing with everything from what classes are like to what the food is like. Mack said she and her associates are already looking for volunteers for the spring when they puton Western Preview. â€¢ 1 hour processing â€¢ same day reprints â€¢ 4 print sizes 3x5,4x6,5x7,6x9â€¢ black and white printings processing HOURS 9-6 MONDAY-SATURDAY â€¢ copy negatives â€¢inter negatives â€¢ double prints/free film Every Tuesday! â€¢ knowledgeable, friendly staff to help youmany other services 734-4668 "WESTERN'S PHOTO CENTER" JUST DOWN THE HILL FROMWESTERN!

Tuition for all three regional universities, Western, Central Washington University and Eastern WashingtonUniversity, will increase from $1,611 to $1,698 in 1991. Tuition will go up to $1,785 in 1992-93 atWestern while tuition at the University of Washington and Washington State University will climb to$2,274 in 92-93. Vice President for Business and Financial Affairs George Pierce said state law hasalways required students to pay a percentage of the full cost of their education. BudgetDirectorJackCooley said resident undergraduate students at Western are expected to pay 25 percent of thecost of education, while non-resident students are supposed to pay 100 percent. Washingtontaxpayers pay the remainder of the cost. Out-of-s tate tui tion will increase to $6,400 in the 1991-92school year, Pierce said. According to an article in the Nov. 15 Seattle Post-Intelligencer, HEC BoardChairman Charles Collins said raising tuition was not a board decision but "the execution of state law."The Western tuition increase of 5.4 percent is lower than the seven percent annual tuition increase inother parts of the country, according to the P.I. article. Pierce said Western's tuition increase is not asmuch as tuition at private institutions and does not think it will deter people from attending Western. Headded that it may "make a difference between (a student attending) the 'U' or Western." Pierce saidthat national college costs have been consistently going up, but the state tuition increase is based on an HEC Board study done two years ago. Cooley said the cost of education is based on an 1989studywhichlooked at how much money was spent on instruction, instructional support, student services,building maintenance and all administrative duties, Cooley said. He added that the cost of instructionis the "biggest single cost" to educating students. Cooley said the cost will increase 5.4 percent thisyear and another 5.1 percent in 1992. He added that Western's increase is less than half of the increase that will be felt by students at the University of Washington and Washington State University. Tuition for these institutions will increase by 11.5 percent in 1991. The tuition increases will go into effectautomatically unless the state legislature decides to change it, Cooley said.

Yeah, they'renice, fun-loving guys alright; but it wasimpossible to meet them. The adventure began when I setup an interview with their new guitarist,Chris McClurken. I agreed to meet them at their practice house. The only problem was Chris didn't know the address. All he could give wetfe^omeyague.directions and.the assurance: "You'll find it." I didn'tAfter several attempts at getting an interview with the whole band together, I had to settle for a phoneinterview with the band's drummer, Dylan Purchase. "Despite the fact that She's Carrion didn't playtogether over the summer and they have a new guitarist, they are getting along fairly well,".'" Purchasesaid'. I asked him if their old guitarist, Scott Wright, was mad that they went on without him. "He's notjealous ... he actually came into a practice last week unannounced and seemed very supportive," Dylansaid. Despite the lineup change, She's Carrion has kept most of its old songs. The band has also addeda couple new ones. One of the songs is called "No Pride," which was written by bass player WolfgangIsenhart. "If s about a dude who's been in College for 18 years while living off his parents, and his onlygoals are drinking and fucking," Dylan says.

I interviewedthem at Speedy O' Tubbs the night they rocked the house down with The Mummies and PhantomSurfers. "Every article on us in the Front has been fucked up!" said Shauna. The most major screw-upwas in an article last May where it was said that Mort and Shauna were married. "We're notmarriedâ€”we never were â€” we never will be!" said Shauna, who is actually happy most of the time. Inthat same article it was also said that all three of them moved up from Seattle "...to experience themusic scene." While Mort and Shauna are from Seattle, Jeff is not. Jeff's a local yocal. He even went toMount Baker High School, which is nowhere near Seattle. OK, we've got all the complaints out of theway. Let's do something real. Game For Vultures does that garage-sound thing and rocks killer. Mortplays a mean guitar and sings about guys getting killed. Shauna plays bass and also sings, but notabout guys getting killed. Jeff beats on drums and makes those really painful facial expressions that allgreat drummers do so well. Jeff has actually done some singing for the band as well. He does backingvocals on their Dust Blair compilation song, "Shelley the Turtle." Mort wears the same Indy 500 pit crew shirt every time the band plays. "I wanted it to be band uniforms, but no one else would go for it," Mortsaid. He claims he does wash the shirt every now and then â€” thank God! Beside the Dust Blaircompilation, Game for Vultures has appeared on numerous other compilations, including: EstrusLunch Box Set, Here Ain't the Sonics and Bellingham Comp's II and DX They also have a tune called'Train Song" that's on a compilation released only in Europe. "We're big in Italy," says Shauna. However, their most impressive achievement yet is the single released on Estrus records called "Goin' My Way."The single was on really neat, clear vinyl with purple, blue, yellow, green and red swirls. It even reachednumber five on the Rocket's All Northwest charts soon after its release. I would be done writing now, butI forgot to put in a quote from Jeff and he might beat me up if I don't. All I can find inmynotes from theinterview is, "big, long and hard," but I don't ^A M % know why he said that. He also said, "I hate itwhen you fart in my face." I don't know â€” the guy just doesn't make a lot of sense. He and Shaunacalled me an asshole at the end of the interview though, which does make a lot of sense. Thank you very muchâ€”I AM AN ASSHOLE!!! P.S. They also plan some big surprises for the Weenie Fest. Let's justhope that everyone keeps their clothes on. ^HffiM The World's Youngest Band... ^llmÂ§mmSm ^y 4'money By Julie McGalliard Special to the Front It's hard to be a huggum. With a repertoire that includes a medley of "Whole Lotta Love" and the Posies "I May Hate You Sometimes," the anthemic"Lungfish," an hypnotic instrumental during which their guitar player throws things at the audience,atleast one catchypop ballad and a couple of songs that could be regarded as punk, Weehuggum defiesmusical classification. And the three Weehuggum members want it that way. Drummer Karl Freskeshared his ambition to make Weehuggum "a punk-pop-folk band," at an evening practice session in their "natural habitat," a place known as Griffenshire. Out in the residential wilds of Whatcom County, it ishome to friend and musical adviser Michael Griff en, recording equipment, and the drum set Freskeuses. When asked if they could describe their musical style, band members responded with aresounding, "No!" Bassist Beau Fredericks said, "We like to think of ourselves as the weirdest bandin Bellingham." Weird or not, they are certainly the only band in Bellingham named after a daycarecenter. Weehuggum coalesced when Fredericks and Freske, both involved withKUGS radio, discoveredthat "we each didn'tplay instruments. I said, 'I don'tplay bass.' Hesaid, 'Idon'tplay drums.* Then Karl saidhe'd found someone in his honors class who didn't play guitar." Fredericks smiled at guitaristEricOstrowski, who was bent intently over his guitar strings. "But Eric tricked us. We found out he knew howto play." Weehuggum's first practice session was two years ago this election day. That's the dayGeorge Bush got elected. "It was a sad day, a sad practice," Fredericks lamented, but observed that itdid make it easy to know how long the band has been together. Their first performance was on theslightly less ill-fated Cinco De Mayo 1989 at the Up Up Tavern with now-defunct Dust Blair. They wenton to play, among other things, a couple of previous Weeniefests. "I'll be of age for this Weeniefest,"Freske said. 'Tell anyone who wants to beat me up." Weehuggum has always done primarily originalsongs, because, "We were too talentless to play anyone else's," Fredericks said. Freske and Ostrowski write most of the songs, usually beginning with a set of lyrics and a general idea for the structure. Theactual composition of the music is basically an organic process, with See HUGGUM page 19 I ---------- Western Front - 1990 November 30 - Page 11 ---------- November 30,1990 Hie Western Front 11 By Susan Nehye special to the Front People are alwaysseeing Bigfoot here in the Pacific Northwest and Crayon has, too. One day the trio was practicing(horseshoes) when Sasquatch himself appeared. Of course, the first thing the band wanted to know was:"Did you come here in a UFO?" "NO," growled the big monkey. "I arrived via the groove shuttle." Thenhe gave Brad a guitar and Sean abass. He also gave Jeff some drums. Primitive poop now existed inBellingham. Everyone jumped around in a very innocent way. It was really nice. It was a lot of fun. Theband soon began publishing Thrill! magazine and its debut cassette release, "A Cartwheel For A Kiss,"broke the top-10 in Sassy magazine's hit list. Future plans include graduating eventually, but for nowthey are content with being punk rockers. Crayon are: Sean Tollefson (bass), Brad Roberts (guitar),and Jeff Fell (drums). Stagnant water...Live at Shelton pnson By Eric Ostrowskl special to the FrontShane Boday, lead singer for Stagnant Water, has been serving a life sentence at Shelton Prison forgiving his roommate a beer. I had to do the following interviewthereduring a jailbreak. The only othermember of the band who could attend the interview was bass player, Blind Lemon Pledge. The othermembers of the band are Splat Ratchet and Matt Conrad. This interview is taped verbatim, only I editedit to death. Me: "Check." Blind:"Sperm tastes a lot like Stxidex pad fluid." Me: "Why did you do thatwith my mom, Shane?" Shane: "I'm gonna have to field that question to Blind Lemon Pledge."

Shane: "Aunt Jemima." Me: "Would you like to slag off the other members of the band since they are not here?" Blind: "I would, butthey like a little gel on the hands." Me: "No.IsaidSLAG them off!" Me: "Who's the biggest asshole youknow?" Blind: "There are so many to choose from. It would be a dishonor to just mention one." Me:"Can you love, can you really love?" Shane: "Personally, I think anything you do in the privacy ofyour own home is your own business. Like Amway â€” if you do it in your own home, it's your ownbusiness." Blind: "No! It's really boring to do things in your own home! If you live in the same place forawhile, even doing it on the kitchen sink isn't very exciting, so it's more like whatever you do in theprivacy of some perfect stranger's home is your own business." Me: "When you dance, do your sensestingle and take a chance?" Blind: "Idon'tdance, but to make up for itl'mreally good on the balance beam." Me: "Do you insist on going by your stage names?" Blind: "For this yes, because I'll get my paydeducted from the Ice Capades." Shane: "The reason we use our stage names is just to protect ourparents." Blind: "Yeah, having alastname like Hitler really offends people." Shane: "And my name usedto be Festering Pusstule... And when we opened our pizza shop we had to change our names becausenobody would eat there." Blind: "The ovens were always a little too hot" Shane: "Come to Hitler andFestering Pusstule's Pizza Shop." Side Two of tape: After they got drunk. Blind: "You know. I don't think we're any funnier when we're drunk." Shane: "It's just that we're drunker when we!re funny." Me: "Areyou mad about what I did with your mom?" Shane: "Hey, don't print this.

Don't waste your time doing somethingyou hate, and then decide that you hate it after you've already done it 40,000 times. Because of ourfierce ineptitude, we have managed to escape thousands of daily chores that can plague the averageband member. But there is a danger i here. We were almost consumed by our own ineptitude, but failedmiserably. All of our songs have been certified as "politically correct" by the President of the UnitedStates! We know how impressed you are by that. Anyway, you are probably wondering what exactly our music is like. A lot of bands often complain: "How can you describe music with words?"

Drunken leaves falling into winter By Dark columnist at large "I have lingered too long in a puddleof dreams, 'til my roots become drenched and my leaves, drunken wings."â€”Chad Sweeney . There is something about looking into the future that is painful. For me, it is the realization that the presentmust end. This is one of the most basic tenets that the experienced traveler must never forget.Because, ultimately, the journey must end. It is not the freezing rain, the snowy field, or the scorchingdesert that disables a journeyman. It is his arrival. And I did. To Boulder, Colorado. I had old friendswho were still in school, bluffing with a bad poker hand that I had already folded. Together, we climbedduring the day and went to bars at night. The Indian summer and flaxen leaves made up the daytime. My inability to reassimilate made up the night The problem was that all my old friends wanted to drink withme. So, I went to Pearl's, the Sundowner, J.J. McCabes, the Dark Horse, the Walnut Brewery, and acouple of keg parties, all in a week.

I became a jumbled pileof human. It is only now, that I know why this came to pass. I was drunk, simply because I could notyet cope with the fatal wound of arrival. I was back to reading the newspaper and walking on thesidewalks. I had to watch for cars and I dreamt of an oil war. The loneliness of a spackled ceiling,replaced the twinkling-star night.

But I was home, the best place to greet winter with awarm handshake and a piece of pumpkin pie. Our dog had grown into a lioness, a dissident ofevolution. The house had been landscaped, probably by Pythagoras. My room had lost some characterto its many guests. The front yard was but brown dead grass. And I met my father. DARKMAN in hisformative years. AH the way to Norman, Oklahoma. Lahoma. Homa. HOME. The leaves were curbdeep, so that I could hear them shattered under my tires. The air was heavy with humidity, it felt like a hot shower. I wove my way through streets I had once walked as a child. They had lost their magnitude, for now I could drive them. The restaurants had changed their names. And winter fell from the neon,flitting about on the sidewalk. Now I know him. My mother fidgeted about in the kitchen, fixing meals ofgreat importance. I was treated to clean bedsheets for the first time in almost two months. I checked onmy high school friends, the few thatremained. And I slept through the Thanksgiving Day parades. I had reached the holiday comfortable. But then I remembered that damned milkshake promise. And thatwas enough to get me going again.

The frames surrounding the void possessa significance that is not outwardly apparent, but nevertheless requires everyone's attention andawareness, to fully comprehend its dire importance. It is impossible to ignore the potency of theemptiness, the space within the frames. This show was fashioned after the New York based group,Visual AIDS, which began "A Day Without Art" with other art spaces across the country on World AIDSDay last Dec. 1. Many museums and galleries closed to promote awareness and display concern forAIDS in the art world. This year, World AIDS Day will focus on AIDS and women. "The reason beingthat women are the fastest growing population to become HTV positive," said Tammy Zlotnik, director ofthe Chrysalis Gallery. "'A Day Without Art' is not a day without creativity. We're using creativity to gainpeople's attention." A motley array of frames hang in the exhibit, all devoid of any visible images within.Each frame, or set of frames, is accompanied by a written piece asking the viewer to visualize theessence within the space. "The idea is to draw people in and to have them approach the subject. Themedia has dehumanized AIDS and it has become really personalized in the how," Zlotnik said. Variouswomen visual artists were approached by Zlotnik in the Bellingham community. She asked them if theywould sponsor a frame by writing something involving their thoughts on AIDS. They were free to interprettheir thoughts with their own personal whims. The response from the community was overwhelming.Zlotnik was surprised by thenumber of artists who knew someone afflicted with the AIDS virus. Thecreative thoughts produced were touching and expressive. Many of the frame shops openly donated what they had available for the show and the frames were randomly and arbitrarily paired with the writings. On a podium sat two quaint, antique, metal frames with the title "The Emptiness Includes Us." With arather ordinary perpendicular frame, Photo by Dave Rubert artist Martha Dyck chose the poem, "TheFlesh Can Make the Spirit Visible" by Theodore Rothke. Six basic frames hang on the back wallsymbolizing the different voices of six artists who died from AIDS-related complications. The "voices"with the generic frames represent the talent cut-off and forever untapped because of the disease. "Iwanted the back ones to be uniform so the frames would not detract from the image," Zlotnik said.This show is an effective and unique approach to expressing the emptiness felt by those who have lostfriends, relatives, and lovers to this epidemic illness. "More and more, as time goes on, we're all going to know someone with AIDS," Zlotnik said. It is made evident by the exhibit that the diseasemust stopbeing treated in such a hidden, clandestine manner. This must be done for the sake of becoming bettereducated and more aware of the significance of people's lives within each frame.

The Vikings scored the first 15 points of the game, but were outscored 38-25 in the second half.Western dropped to 3-2 overall, while Seattle Pacific evened its record at 3-3. "It's disappointing because we had them in our grasp and didn't convert when we had the opportunities," Western coach BradJackson said. field goal with 3:00 left to cut the Vikings' deficit to 65-64. Western took a 67-66 lead with less than two minutes remaining when Bovenkamp scored off a pass from Dick, then hit one of two freethrows on the Vikings' next trip down the court. But Western didn't score again and Seattle Pacific used four free throws from guard Scott Campbell to claim the victory. Caio Silveira, a 6-foot-8 center andmember of the Brazilian national team, led the Falcons' second-half charge by scoring eight of the hometeam's first 10 points after intermission. Silveira finished with a game-high 23 points. "It's disappointing because we had them in our grasp and didn't convert when we had the opportunities," -Head coach Brad Jackson "We weren't getting second shots and our fast break was nearly non-existant." The Vikings,who had their five-game winning streak against Seattle Pacific snapped, will get a chance for revengewhen they host the Falcons at 7 p.m. Saturday at Sam Carver Gymnasium. Seattle Pacific, which haswon three of its last four games, took its first lead with 9:20 left in the second half on a fast-break basket by Eric Larson. The Falcons then finished off a 14-3 run to take a 63-57 lead with 5:49 left. Juniorforward Shawn Bovenkamp, who finished with 11 points, brought Western back with a basket off arebound and center John Patton scored on a layup to cut Seattle Pacific's lead to 63-61.

Bovenkamp led the charge with six points, including a 3-point goal, and juniorguard Jeff Curtis added four points. Western's Trevor Sugarman, a redshirt transfer from Westmont(Calif.) College, had 10 of his 13 points in the opening 10 minutes of the game. But the Vikings, whomade 17 of 27 field-goal attempts in the first half, made only 10 of 27 tries after the intermission.Western made only nine of 18 free throws. The Vikings were also hurt by pulling down only sixoffensive rebounds. Seattle Pacific outrebounded Western by a 44-36 margin. Western played without freshman guard Neilan Pierce, who is injured, and senior forward Steven Clinscales, whose fianceegave birth to a seven-pound girl, Noel Joanna.

Ice Hawks "building something" in BellinghamBy Gene Warnick staff reporter The Bellingham Ice Hawks clear the puck out of their own zone during arecent game. Since opening day of the B.C. Junior Hockey League season, the Bellingham Ice Hawkshave been looking up at the rest of the Coastal Division from the cellar. Although thelce Hawks, 9-16-2,remain in fifth place in the five-team division, things are beginning to look up for the franchise, which is inits inaugural season. Despite their record, the Ice Hawks are averaging more than 1,200 fans per gameat the Whatcom County Sports Arena. "We're building something here," Ice Hawks general managerDon Steinke said. "Something everybody can be real proud of. Now Bellingham is a place you cancome and play some hockey." TeampresidentKen Alhadeff has also been pleased with the off-iceprogress of the team. Alhadeff indicated recently there is a future for the Ice Hawks in Bellingham. That had been in question since the Alhadeff family sold Broadacres, Inc., the private company that owned the land on which Longacres Race Track in Renton sits, to The Boeing Co. on Sept. 27. Since thesale, there's beenmuch talk about the future of thoroughbred racing in the state, but little word from theAlhadeffs regarding the future of the hockey team.

Hockey cont. from p. 15 "Three years ago,there was no life (at the sports arena). Now, there's life," Alhadeff said. "These people (fans) are having a good time and they're not charged an arm and a leg to get in here. We're very excited about the futureand we're pleased with the success so far. I think we've been received well. We've tried to present aquality product." That hasn't always been the case on the ice, but the team has improved its play athome and is still in the chase for the fourth and final playoff spot in the division. After losing their firstthree home games, the Ice Hawks have gone 6-1-2. After a 2-9-1 start, the Ice Hawks have managed toplay .500 hockey. "I honestly believe we've got good enough people in there that we can make theplayoffs," Ice Hawks coach Mike Collins said. The Ice Hawks got off to a slow start, in part becausesome of the younger players on the team had trouble adapting to the league. But youngsters like rightwingers Rod Graham and Mike Mickelson have began to make their mark. The team's leading scorerhas been 19-year-old center Dale Walsh, with 20 goals and 20 assists. Still, the Ice Hawks can't rely on their talent to beat most teams. They've got to grind and work for every edge they can get. That effortwas lacking in the team's recent three-game losing streak, which was snapped Wednesday. "We've got to realize that when we start to have hard work, more success is going to come.'TceHawks goaltenderJames Jensen said. "The last few games our effort has been lackluster. We weren't even working hardin practice. We could've worked harder (Wednesday), but we got out of it with a win." i .1 i- ^Â»yÂ»^gt; *gt;^Â» %itfÂ» iÂ»iagt; gt;*i^gt; Â» â€¢ * Â«*ilt;Â»jÂ» ^KJ ^ w i ^ ^ i i ^ ^ i ^ ^^Jt-J^aaH*i^ae Â»iia* *!gt;ii* gt;gt;Â«â€¢ * Â» * * *gt;!** * ^ i * * *^i*Â» *gt;**Â» ^gt;lt;gt; ^ M * *gt;Â»*Â»^w** Merry Christmas from the Student Co-Op Bookstore t Buy any clothing item at the marked priceand receive 25% off any other clothing item of equal or lesser value.

The other was to simply add the King holidayâ€”of the more than 1 million votes cast,this one lost by 17,000 votes. As a result, NFL commissioner Paul Tagliabue has stated he willencourage club owners to move the site of the 1993 Super Bowl from Arizona to another state. Thereis also talk of some college football teams boycotting the Fiesta Bowl and the Copper Bowl, both ofwhich are played in Arizona. The NAACP has stated they will support any team that chooses not to playin either bowl. I believe if the NFL chooses to move the location of the Super Bowl and if any collegefootball team boycotts either of the bowl games, it will be a grave mistake. The Super Bowl receivesone of the highestratings of any telecast each year. With so many people tuned in, there is no better atime for the network and advertisers to express their views and educate people on the matter. Tipoffcont. from p. 16 Western and Concordia have met twice previously, both in 1988- 89 at Portland, Ore.,Western winning, 80-79, and, 74-65, in theNAIA Bi-District 1 playoff. The Saints return 10 playersfrom a team that set a school record for wins with 21 as they posted their first winning record in eightseasons. Four starters are back for the Saints including 6-foot senior center Kim Magnan whoaveraged 7.2 points per game last season, 5-foot- 10 senior forward Kathy Scheibner and 5-foot-9 juniorforward Shelley Wren. Western holds a 16-1 series advantage, defeating the Saints, 96- 69, in their only meeting last season. The Vikings have won the last 13 meetings, their only loss being, 62- 53, in 1981-82. The first home game is not until Jan. 11, when Whitworth will come to Bellingham. Before theVikings play at home they have two District 1 road games, at Pacific Lutheran University on Dec. 5, andat Central Washington University on Dec. 20. PLU returns most of their key players from last years 7-18team, including 6-foot senior center Gail Ingram. Ingram led PLU in scoring, 16.3 points per game,rebounding, nine per game, and field goal percentage, shooting .519 from the field. Western has neverlost to PLU in 15 meetings. They won lastyear's only meeting 69-46 at Bellingham. Central returns onlyone starter from last season's 13-17 squad, but look to improve with the addition of some quality juniorcollege transfers. The lone returning starter is 5-foot- 10 junior forward Darci Riley, who was second onthe team in scoring, averaging 10.2 points per game, and rebounding, grabbing 5.5 boards per contest.The Vikings also have two other tournaments, the Lumberjack Classic in Areata, Cal., and theBahamas Goombay Shootout. The Vikings have seven returning letter winners from last year'ssquad that went26-4 and was ranked number six nationally. Three starters are back, center Cim Hanson, guard Erica Porter and forward Lori Tarasewich. Also returning are center Chris Garrison, forwardAlissia Lumpkin, guard Katie Kennedy, and forward Michole Clemans.

Everyone alwaystalks about professional athletes being role models, so why not give them a chance on this issue? Itseems rather hypocritical of the NFL to take such a strong stand on this issue considering it has onlyone black head coach and not one black general manager among its 28 teams. The state of Arizonastands to loose $200 million because of this controversy, buttheNFLdoesn'tseem to mind making somemoney off of the Phoenix Cardinals. I am positive that college athletes could make a very big impressionas well as the professional athletes. The University of California has already announced its intention toplay in the Copper Bowl. The team said they'll wear commemorative arm bands in honor of King.University of Miami Athletic Director Sam Jankovich told Fiesta Bowl board member, Bill Shover, that itwould be difficult for the Hurricanes to accept an invitation if the holiday was rejected. Schools such asMiami andNotre Dame are very sensitive towards this controversy, as well they should be. So why runaway from the issue? It seems the Miami football team could do more for the issue if they went toArizona and spoke out on the issue in some way, as California is doing. People must also askthemselves if the entire state of Arizona should be punished for what amounts to less than 52 percent ofthe population voting against this proposition. No way. This is a very sensitive and important issuethatneeds to be addressed and dealt with in some way, but not at the expense of the entire state. Leavethe Super Bo wl in Arizona and don't boycott either bowl game. I think it will definitely help educate andbring the issue to light much more than it will ever hurt the state of Arizona.

Iremember having some of the same discussions with fellow students regarding pornography,censorship, Playboy, Penthouse, etc. And I re member saying some of the sair i things that I hear some Western students saying now, particularly some of the young men, about protecting Free Speech,stopping censorship, "those women choose to pose, they getpaid a lot of money for doing it," etc. A lothas happened to me since 1982 to change my viewpoint on this. Primarily, I began to earnestly listen towhat some women were telling me about their women's reality of living in this U.S.A. society. And Itookmy head out of the porno magazines long enough so that I was able to listen to them. What I heardwas a very different story than the one Playboy and Penthouse had told me about women. I heard talesof terrorism that sounded like a war zone. Rape, battery, sexual abuse by fathers, brothers, uncles â€”almost always men are the perpetrators. Fear of walking safely down the street at night, sexualharassment and intimidation by bosses and professors. Eating disorders, obsession with thinness,disgust with pornography and the sexual objectificationof women'sbodies that is advertised in the profit-hungry corporate mass media. As I began to learn more about women's reality, and as I met more andmore women with similar experiences, I began to examine my own participation in such treatment ofwomen. I began to question why I was attracted to thin women. Especially, ' I began to wonder about myattraction, and that of my friends, to pornography and the images found in pornography. Thepornography of choice for myself and my male peer group was Playboy and Penthouse. We liked thefantasy of the girl-next-door turned into sexual plaything-next- door. Existing for our sexual consumptionand penetration and pleasure. And of course, "she" couldn'tbe just any woman, "she" had to be whatwe had learned was "beautiful," because that's what we had learned a good, successful Man ofCapitalism would win if he worked hard enough: the "beautiful woman." We had been bombarded with this message literally millions of times since we were very young, starting with Barbie and Ken and G.I. Joedolls., and continuing to Playmates and Penthouse Pets. A "beautiful" woman just for us, to make usMen of Capitalism feel good. Just turn the pages of our "men's entertainment" magazines, and we couldimagine and fantasize we had . won our prize. And we could win her over and over again. We could winmany different women, all of them at our finger tips, conveniently located and packaged in the glossypages of our magazines. What's more, we could experience touch, masturbatory orgasm, andsensualityâ€” all things big grown men learned to relinquish as little boys trying to learn how to outgrowbeing sissies. Our fantasies promised us paradise, and yet we ended up being alone, in our bedrooms,stroking ourselves to Playmates and Pets telling us that they wanted us. Ramrod sex with a magazine. It seems hard to believe doesn't it? All of this from a three dollar magazine? I found that the use ofpornography was actually a measure of our dissatisfaction with our own lives. Weused it like adrug oralcohol. In fact, they all went hand in hand. We thought we were pretty rowdy, cool, hip partying dudes.We were Young Men of Capitalism, trying to deal the best we could with the immense pressures on us to perform, compete, and WIN. Unfortunately for women, our fantasies went beyond our bedrooms. Wecarried them around with us, always in our heads. If we could have shaken our heads like a gumballmachine and knocked all the fantasies out, we could have saved ourselves and women a lot of heartache. But we couldn't. They were locked in too tighdy. We carried our fantasies and images inside us like acancer â€” while walking down the street, while standing in the grocery check out line, while going to afootball game or party. We took them with us on dates. We were sure the fantasies were right, evenwhen our female date was saying, "No!" to our sexual advances. Playmates never said no, and so wepushed our date just a little bit further. Sometimes even over the edge. Well, it's ten years later and I'velearned a lot, thanks to women in my life. And thanks to my own willingness to listen, and to take myhead out of the porno mags long enough so that I could listen. I hope the students of Western, especially you young men, will also listen. First Amendment rights are important considerations, but so also arethe 14th Amendment rights. Remember the 14th Amendment? That's the one that guarantees all citizens "equal protection" of the laws. That's the amendment that is used to justify civil rights legislation toprevent racial discrimination. This issue of pornography is also a civil rights issue. Let's wake up,students of Western, especially you young men. Your bookstore and your university, which is supposedto be a place of higher learning, is better off without pornography on its campus, including Playboy andPenthouse. By not selling Playboy and Penthouse, you are making a decision about what kind ofbookstore and campus you want. And you are joining other universities, like M J.T., that are makingsimilar decisions to make a stand for women's civil rights and to hold the corporate media accountable for what they produce. Playboy and Penthouse hurts us all, and we have more important things to fight forthan their protection: 250,000 troops in the Middle East, the Savings and Loans Crisis, impendingrecession, homelessness, pervasive violence against women and children, 4,000 Panamanian civiliansburied in mass graves by U.S. soldiers, U.S. supported death-squad military governments in El Salvadorand Guatemala, the increasing stranglehold of the U.S. national security state. Remember those crises?You want a cause? How about pressuring your bookstore to sell "TheNation," "Z Magazine," the"Guardian," or a dozen other alternative press magazines not currently sold there, that will challengeand enrich your minds more than Playboy and Penthouse?

Organizers of thelip-sync show have warned performers not to change their skin color with makeup, attempting to avoidthe conflict that followed after a contestant in the Mr. Western competition appeared onstage in"black-face" makeup.

Brad Ellis/The Western Front Rain didn't prevent Huxley graduate student Bill Cantrellfrom speaking his piece of mind. See related story on page 4. Southern dean named new provost ByDon Hunger campus government news President Mortimer has selected the man responsible forassisting him in charting the future course of Western's academic curriculum. Mortimer announcedtoday his selection of Dr. Les A. Karlovitz as Western's next vice president of Academic Affairs, alsoknown as provost. Karlovitz is currently dean of the College of Science and Liberal Studies at GeorgiaInstitute of Technology. He will replace acting provost Sam Kelly in September, Mortimer said. Sharinghis unbridled enthusiasm for Karlovitz, the president said, "Karlovitz has a real strength in working withfaculty and students, he is an excellent communicator. ...If I had to write the headline, I'd say 'Westernwins again!*" The selection of Karlovitz concludes a search, conducted by an eight-member committee,which began last November and included approximately 200 candidates. The search narrowed winterquarter when three finalists visited Western and met with students, faculty and administrators. The finalselection was made by Mortimer this month. When Karlovitz came to Western as a candidate inMarch, he said education must be visionary. A university must have programs, designed for the future,which include fundamental issues in technology and communication. Students should learn how to worknumerical data, he said.

In its most recent attempt to promote student diversity, Western has assigned threeminority students to its 41-person staff of resident advisers for next year, said Ron Trav-enick,assistant director for Residence Life. The Office of Residence Life is conducting a nationwide searchfor eligible minority candidates to fill resident director positions as well, said Mike Bartosch, associatedirector of University Residences for Residence Life. The appointments are a result of a newadministrative effort to increase minority participation in residence life at Western, Travenick said."It's abnormal for us to have even one minority staff member (in a resident adviser position). Wedecided not to leave it to chance this year," Bartosch said. Travenick added, "We just wanted to getthe (minority) applicants in the pool. With only one applicant it's an uphill battle to place him." Inprevious years, Residence Life officials assumed minority students would apply for advisory positions inthe same way as the rest of the student populationâ€”through notice given to dorm students, Bartoschsaid. Travenick noted, however, that few incoming minority students chose to live in the residence halls. This year, Travenick said he visited the Multicultural Services Center to discuss the reasons minoritystudents chose not to be active in residence halls. "Minority students are not wanting to risk breaking into the all-white hall systems. They'd rather come up here and live with other minority students," hesaid. No position requirements were waived for minority student applicants, he said. However, minority students who did not have the two quarters of on-campus living were encouraged to list other group-living experiences, such as leadership roles in camps, as a substitute. ---------- Western Front - 1989 April 21 - Page 2 ---------- April 21,1989 The Western Front Tedrow Demographic lab to be set up here For the second year in arow Western has won an grant from the National Science Foundation, establishing a "ResearchExperiences for Undergraduates Site" for the summer of 1989. Two universities were chosen last yearand four this year, with Western the only repeat winner. The $40,000 grant allows Western toestablish a Demographic Research Laboratory. Students spend eight weeks during the summerlearning and doing applied demographic research on population migration. Ten students will attend theprogram this year. The program helps undergraduates understand demography by not only exposing it to them but having them apply what has been learned in a paper they present at the end of their stay,said Lucky Tedrow, director of Western's department of sociology. Students focus on migrationusing the 1980 census public use micro-data sample fields and data from the state of Washington.They spend their eight weeks researching, listening to guest speakers and taking field trips to Seattleand the State Demographer's Office in Olympia.

The event will draw public attention to today's environmental issues, such as deforestation, toxic pollution and conservation. A local"McToxic" campaign, to collect Styrofoam and send it back to McDonald's corporate ol-fice, will also beorganized, along with a "Boycott Exxon" campaign. Western's Environmental Center will provideinformation on recycled paper and will take orders for recycled paper from Earth Care Paper Company.The center is organizing an "Environmental Graffiti B oard" on which fair-goers can express ideas,opinions, hopes, frustrations and actions for a healthier, environmentally sound future.

Scott speaks on new state atlas Western geography professor James Scott spoke April 16 at the Whatcom County Art Museum about the development of the firstWashington atlas that includes state culture, economy and political progress. Five thousand state centennial atlases will be printed by August. The atlas, divided into nine sections, will commemorateWashington's progress since it was granted statehood in November 1889. Scott produced the atlaswith assistance from John Newman, principal researcher and Western graduate, and ColinVasquez, cartographer. The 162-page atlas, produced for $ 105,000, "will be the principal reminder ofthe centennial year and areference foryears tocome,"Scott said. Atlases can be ordered through theCenter for Pacific Northwest Studies at Western. Hardback ($42) and flexibound ($25.95) editions can be mailed with no additional postage fees, Scott said. DID U.

Keg patrols hitGonzaga fiestas Off-campus parties at Gonzaga University are in jeopardy. Spokane County Sheriff'sdepartment has formed a special task force, or "keg patrol" as it has been called, to break up partiesand make arrests where necessary. "Once a few parties are busted and some people brought in, I think people will realize the cops aren't screwing around," Gonzaga student Tim Johnston said. Police saidcitation fines will average $100. Violence, property damage and a large number of complaint calls eachweekend are a few reasons for the task force. Drunk wrecks UBC clubs A drunken escapade left threeUniversity of British Columbia political clubs in a shambles two weeks ago. Damage appeared to bethe result of the actions of a drunken vandal who decided to climb from office to office, on the ceilingtiles. The vandal left a letter stating, "I. am not a member of any of your clubs, so please do not thinkthat the damage was the result of any hatred for any political ideology." He promised in writing to pay$100 for the office damages.

UW students close to fusion Two physics students at theUniversity of Washington may have jointed an elite group of scientists on the verge of what could be amajor advance in science. Van Eden and Wei Liu last week announced they may have attained nuclearfusion at room temperature. If the apparent cold fusion proves practical, it may become a relatively safeand cheap energy source. Current nuclear reactors use fission, a different process which producesmore radioactive waste than fusion. The students said they may have broken new ground in apparentlyfinding a way to start and stop the fusion process.

By Christine M. Clark staff reporterFour men wearing old army uniforms and carrying toy guns walked through the crowd gathered at theViking Union Plaza. They were part of the Guerrilla Theater. At one point during the demonstration, the men grabbed some of the participants and dragged them off to show what happens in El Salvadorwhen someone is a suspected of being a terrorist to the military. Later, the "prisoners" were broughtback to stage killings in front of the audience. National Campus Actions groups, sponsored by thePeace Resource Center and the Rainbow Coalition, staged a demonstration at the VU Plaza yesterdayin an effort "to raise visibility about the situation in El Salvador," Lisa Petke said. Edwina Grey-Hound,who sells coffee on Vendors' Row twice a week said, "I think it's great; I'm tired of apathy." StevePowers, one of the men dressed as a guerrilla said, "I think it definitely quieted the crowd down for awhile and got their attention," But most people watching did not object to the demonstration. "I think it'scool," said Darsie Beck, Huxley major. "People should be concerned about this issue because theU.S. government is supporting a lot of bad things in Central America," he said. Gregg Farah, Englishmajor, said, "If you go about it with a heart that wants to say something, people will listen to you. I'm allfor any type of expression." Derek Barnard, a member of the rugby team, was selling raffle tickets onVendors' Row during the demonstration. "It's definitely a large distraction," Barnard said. "It doesn'thelp us sell tickets." Gary, a Western graduate who did not want to give his last name, said, "I justcame here to hear what they have to say. "I was in the service for four years and also with the invasionforce in Grenada, so the guys walking around in uniforms bother me because I wore one." Scholarshipsready for local volunteers By Christine M. Clark staff reporter Two scholarships are now available tostudents who volunteer their time either on campus or in the community. The Student VolunteerScholarship and the Associated Students Activities Scholarship are sponsored by the AssociatedStudents at Western. Funds for the scholarships will come from proceeds of the Big Blue BonusBook. Steven Smith, vice president for Academic Affairs, said the idea behind the Bonus Book was tosomehow direct the money back to students. "Since the money is coming from local businesses whobought advertising in the Big Blue Bonus Book, we wanted the money to go back to the community insome way," Smith said. "One of the ways I thought we could do this is to give someone a scholarshipwho is contributing their time to the community," he said. Smith said what the AS does with the profitsof the Bonus Book should be well-publicized. "I think a lot of people think the Associated Students takes the money and doesn't do anything with it," Smith said. "It will be nice to be more visible that way."Applicants for the scholarships will be judged according to how much time they volunteer each week and how they are compensated for the work. Students must also be in good academic standing with a GPAover 2.0 and submit an essay of 150 words describing why they volunteer their time and who benefitsfrom the experience. Smith has his own scholarship idea still in the planning stages. It is tentativelycalled the Lotto Scholarship and would also be funded with Blue Book proceeds. Students would beeligible for the scholarship by buying raffle tickets available during Summerstart, fall orientation and inRed Square the first week of school. "We figured it would be a good promotional tool," Smith said. "(It)would be the closest that most people will get to a scholarship." Smith said he has had goodresponse from staff members and has even heard that President Mortimer thought it was aninteresting idea. the speech and broadcast department said, referring to gram, students have access to a number of discussion group instructors and instructor assistants.

Lectures were OK, but you got so much Broadcast change The speech-broadcast department ismaking some major changes in its curriculum, scheduled to go into effect this fall. New course numbers, some new classes and a switch from the two available majors to one are included in the updatedcurriculum. The new numbering system keeps all introductory classes at the 100 or 200 level, and then properly sequences classes upward according to the specific area of study. This will require studentsto take the introductory classes before moving into the upper-division classes. It also will discouragenon-majors from enrolling.in communication classes. "The new major will strengthen students. Theywill become more fully involved in communication studies, which they might not have been in the oldmajors," Smith said. Students wishing to declare under the current majors may do so only until the newcatalog comes out. NA5W WALL PPE5ENT5-.

The Associated Students Board is spreading the wordthat Western students can call Olympia and make themselves heard on the Legislative Hotline. This 800 number has been set up so citizens can contact legislators and teli them what they support ordisagree with. Callers can leave a message with the legislator of their choice. An operator will take down the caller's name, address and phone number. The caller must tell the operator what it is he or shewould like to talk to the legislator about. The hotline has been in existence more than 12 years. All theinformation is compiled and delivered to the appropriate desk four times a day. Tammy Fleming, ASpresident, took an interest in the hotline this year and has been working to get students involved.Through fliers, called Legislative Updates, information is presented to students clearly and conciselyon legislation that students can act on by using the. hotline. Western's AS has a hired legislativeliaison who works at the capitol for the entire academic year. Through the liaison, Western has a link toOlympia. This year's liaison is Greg Anderton. He will provide the AS information that affects students.The AS then does what it can to act upon the legislation and get the facts out to the student bodythrough the Legislative Updates. Updates will be posted, mailed to campus residences, printed in theAS Review and given to most major campus groups. The AS has allotted $50 to disseminate the hotlinenumber and relevant information to the campus. Fleming said her goal is to get lots of studentsinvolved."Call. This is a tool (you) can always use living in Washington," she said. "Believe it or not, they (legislators) listen to the Hotline," said Matt Antush, vice president of Internal Affairs. Antush wasWestern's legis-" lative liaison last year. "Legislators will get back to you. I talked with one last year who figured for every one student who called there were at least 100 other students who felt the sameway." The Legislative Hotline number is 1-800-562-6000 or when calling from a campus phone it is 8-800- 562-600. The service is open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Saturday 9 a.m. to 1p.m. It will remain open while the Legislature is in session. The Legislative Hotline can also be used to contact other government officials in Olympia. Math class adds work, overloads full-time students ByTim Cappoen staff reporter Western financial aid recipients lacking strength in the math area may berelieved of their extra workload. Students weak in math must take a Math 99 non-credit course as aprerequisite to enrolling in some of the other math courses which are offered at Western, said RonaldMartinez, director of Student Financial Resources. Martinez said students do not pay for nor registerfor the course, which is not reflected on the student's transcript in any way. In order for students toreceive financial assistance, they must take a minimum of 12 credits a quarter. The problem is, norecord exists of student having ever enrolled in Math 99 or satisfactorily completing the course.Martinez has been concerned with the Math 99 course for two years but hasn't really pushed to get itchanged until now. His concern stems from the fact the math course may be placing many students atrisk academically. "I've been concerned about it because I think we may be requiring a little toomuch," Martinez said. He also mentioned it's very likely the students required to take the Math 99algebra course are some of the very students the financial aid programs were designed to assist. "Torequire the student to carry an overload seems counter-productive," Martinez said. He said he couldaccept that the students receive no credits for the course, but he wants to be able to show the studentwas in fact enrolled in a minimum of 12 hours of course work and satisfactorily completed thosecourses. Provost Continued from page 1 Police fail to find missing woman in campus woods They need to have a world understanding that incorporates historical, human and environmentalconsciousness. Karlovitz has worked at Georgia Tech for 11 years. He has spent the last six years as dean administering 230 full-time faculty, a $28 million budget and academic units in sciences,English, computer science, languages, education and recreation, social sciences and military ROTC.Simultaneously, he has continued to teach calculus. Sam Kelly said he holds Karlovitz in high regardfor several reasons. "He has a high energy level, a wide-ranging academic interest, a reasonablebalance between planning and meeting demands, and a good sense of humor," Kelly said. Karlovitz ison campus this weekend and will return to Georgia on Monday. Thursday morning at approximately10a.m., three to four Belling-ham Police vehicles were dispatched to Western's campus in search of anunidentified missing female last seen in the wooded area between Arntzen Hall and Fairhaven College.Police on the scene searched the woods without apparent success. Western security officer John Brand said the missing person was not a Western student. He did not know how long she has been at large."She was last seen in this area," he said. "As far as our staff knows, there's nothing suspicious about the search, though." The Bellingham police department, before noon, still declined to give anyinformation for reasons of hampering the ongoing investigation. At press time no other information wasmade available to the Western Front.

The long siege of winteris over. Sunlight glistens on bare, pasty-white legs. Freshly mowed lawns and barbecuing hamburgers scent local neighborhoods. Park benches and swings host a multitude of Bermuda-shorted buns.Frisbees are tossed, dandelions are plucked, and dog poop is stepped in. April is finally comforting uswith a preview of summer. Hand-in-hand with tulips and tank tops, however, comes a bittersweetailment commonly referred to as Spring Fever. For some, this term may elicit images of furry rodentsjoyously humping, over-zealous sun goddesses fighting goosebumps in 50- degree weather, and buffbikini-clad men performing cartwheels on damp grass. "Spring fever is a yearning for summer," juniorAmy Caiarelli said. And, she noted, "all the good-looking guys pop out of the woodwork." "It lasts fromspring break until summer," freshman Julie Reinhardt added. "It's an itch to get out and start jogging,"sophomore Julie Schilter said. "It's time to get tan and get fit!" For others, though.'this time of yearmeans a case of the "all-I-want-to-do-is-drown-my-self- in-beer-and-suntan-oil-and-screw-every-thing-else" blahs. Webster's Dictionary confirms this, defining spring fever as "the lazy listless feeling which comes to persons during the first warm days of spring." (Gee...andyou thought it was those beers youdrank all afternoon at the beach.) "It's a reason not to go to class," junior Shelley Collins rationalized.Every day last week, she broke her habit of spending afternoons studying in the library. Instead, Collins hung out at Boulevard Park. Sophomore Troy Bach cited "a lack of studying" as a major spring feversymptom. "Burn-out" is how Nathan Church, director of Counseling and Health Services, described thesyndrome. "Let's face it, a lot of people are burned out...and blame it on spring fever," he said. Aftermonths of gloomy weather, the appearance of a warm sun prods students "to borrow time they don'thave an investment in," Church noted. Projects, papers, and exams get shoved aside to make room forplaytime. Sound familiar? kM'â€¢*Â£ "It's normal to want to play on a nice, sunny day," Bellinghamphysician William Rainbo said. "Sunshine is mood-elevating." Warmth is not as much of a factor, henoted, as the amount of daylight and the level of brightness. Full-spectrum light affects hormones andneuron activity in the brain, Rambo said. (Ah-ha â€” hormones coming out of hibernation. So humpingrodents do have something to do with all this stuff.) "Spring is a positive time," said Western securityofficer John Brown. "(Mischief on campus) tends to go down because there are more alternatives," hesaid. "People are not quite so house-bound." Nor, apparently, appointment-bound. Church said thecounseling center sees an increase of "no-shows" for scheduled appointments in the springtime. Thesame phenomenon occurs at Mount Baker Planned Parenthood, said public affairs director LindaMcCarthy. {Uh-oh.) Church gave some advice to avoid the follies accompanying spring fever: â€¢Realizewarm weather doesn 't alter your responsibilities. â€¢Don't procrastinate. Avoid midterm and final exampanic. â€¢ Don't overtax yourself. Set a realistic pace. Or, opt for sophomore Susan Landry'sphilosophy. "Spring fever is a good reason to fall in love," she said. But don't plan on romancing with thesame person for too long, Landry noted."Do it in-fast and out-fast...there are so many other ones to lookat!" Fantasy places take students away By Kelly Huvinen staff reporter Now that spring has finallysprung upon Whatcom County, many Western students are wishing they were anywhere but class.Feeling this way myself, I wondered where people would want to be if they could go anywhere in theworld. So my photographer and I went out among our fellow students and asked them a few simplequestions. 1. What did you do for spring break? 2. If today was spring break, where would you like to be and what would you like to be doing? We came up with some pretty interesting spring breaks and even better fantasy breaks. Strangely enough, not one person said they would be in Whatcom County andmany fantasy breaks included snow. Most of the students wanted to be in exotic places where it wasover 90 degrees. How can we blame them, when it is only 65 degrees here and we are wearing shorts?Here are a few interesting answers: Dave Daugherty, fresfc-man in business marketing said, "I wentto Santa Clara, Calif., and saw 'The Price is Right' with Bob Barker over break. I was contestantnumber three, and Bob and I played the hillclimber game. My man fell off the hill, so I didn't go to theShowcase Showdown, but I made it to the spinoff round. I ended up with 45 cents. It wasn't enough towin, but that's life. It's a fun show." He said he would be skiing at Park City, Utah, if he could beanywhere, because he usually goes skiing over break. Mike Whitney, a senior majoring infinance marketing said, "I would be in Nepal talking to the Dali Lama trying to find myself." Over break, he went to the Cascades to try to find himself and become one with nature and the trees. BeckyRhoades, a freshman in Fashion Marketing, said "I went to Greece and laid out in the sun nude withlots of good-looking guys around me over break." If she could go anywhere in the world, she, of course,would go back to Greece and the sun. Anna Skraitz, a senior majoring in human resourcesmanagement, said she would like to be deep-sea diving off the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, andthen pop over for dinner at Mel Gibson's -house after the sun went down. She said, "I went to Nashville,Tenn. over break and visited the Conway Twitty General Store. That was really exciting (sarcastically). Ialso went to Barbara Mandrell Country, Barb's museum down there. I saw the nightgown that she woreon her wedding night." Anna said she would like to go back to Nashville and see more of the localattractions, like the Minnie Pearl museum and the Grand Ole Oprey. "I would especially go back ifMcDonald's was playing Scrabble. I ate so much of their food I'd be rich from the little game pieces bythe end of the trip!" Sean Ardussi, sophomore, said he did nothing over break, but if he could goanywhere he would, "Go to Jamaica and kick back in the sun." Emily Swatosh, a junior elementaryeducation and psychology major said, "I would love to be in Mexico on the beach." Instead sheworked in her parents' yard for money overbreak. "At least I made money," she said.

The doors openat 7:15 tonight, with the show scheduled to begin at 8 on the Performing Arts Center main stage. Tickets will be $4 on sale in front of the PAC starting at 6:30 p.m. This year's show is going to be a pleasantsurprise for those tired of the same kind of airband show year after year. The 8-year-old rules for the Jam have been totally rewritten. A new freedom of allowing groups to do medley, theme or any other form ofcreativity, as well as the traditional airband lipsync, is going to be allowed. "The changes were needed to make it more of an entertaining show. It's better than just watching lips move," said Andrew Newberg, Western Jam co-chairman. Ridgeway Delta won last year with a theatrical rendition of Grease."Themes offer more variety. Delta's was so entertaining last year that there was really no question thatwe really had to take a close look at the rules for this year's show," Newberg said. The residence hallsseemed to like the idea as much as the Western Jam committee. "I think it's been really good, it'sopened up a lot of creativity," said Leslie Jensen, Western Jam co-chair woman. "It's giving people alot of different choices. A lot of different, fun stuff will be in this year's show." Two emcees will host theshow and five judges will choose the winners. Jensen said this year's emcees should be entertaining.Karen Heigel is a Western student who moonlights as an amateur stand-up comic. She has won anumber of comedy contests in the Vancouver B.C. comedy club scene. Mike Hyland, a former residentadviser, is a past Western Jam winner. Although letters were sent out to a variety of people to judge,many more refusals were received than acceptances. A letter and high hopes were sent to DavidLetterman. "The denial came on an NBC letterhead from Dave's entertainment coordinator - that's nottoo bad," Newberg said.

To longtime fans this means one thing â€” sell out. But with some bands who are intelligent enough to handle success, breaking into extreme popularity may not spell doom totheir creativity. XTC is one of those rare bands. Even though the band's latest album, "Oranges andLemons," has enough hits to keep it hovering in Billboard's top 10 for several weeks, don't expect itssongs to be converted into Pepsi commercials. "Oranges and Lemons" will undoubtedly boost theband's public appeal, simply because it's chock-full o' hits. Band leader Andy Partridge and hisbass-playing buddy, Colin Moulding, know how to write a pop song similar to the Fab Four. Theycombine humor, infectious melodies and radiant harmonies, making them one of the most creativebands currently existing on this planet. "Oranges and Lemons" showcases the band's abilities withsongs that will satisfy the rocker, the popster or the burned-out Beatle fanatic. The album begins with apsychedelic rave-up, "The Garden of Earthly Delights," sounding peculiarly similar to the band'spart-time, pseudo-group, "The Dukes cf Stratosphere," a semi-comical band the group poses as.Partridge, a recent father, says to his kid, "This is your life, and you'll do what you want to do. Just don'thurt no one, unless, of course, they ask you to." The next song, "The Mayor of Simpleton," the firstsingle off the album, is a radio programmer pleaser. The lyrics proclaim the love for someone, eventhough the singer may just be an Average Joe. The song's highlights are Partridge and Moulding's silkyharmonies. The album's focus is domestic, as members of the band have settled down from their frenetic punk days and have sprouted families and suburban lifestyles in their native Album Review town ofSwindon, England. The album's songs contain odes to children and fathers, warnings about psychoticpresidents and, of course, love songs. Songs such as "Merely a Man," showcase Partridge urging theband and listener to reach "Higher," as Penny Lanesque's trumpets complement the driving guitargroove. "Oranges and Lemons" is distinctly different from the band's 1986 album, "Skylarking," whichwas a technically smooth, flowing album, but lacked the punch of the new one. XTC chose Todd Rund-gren to produce "Skylarking." Rundgren, a pop music wizard, clashed personalities with Partridge,producing an album which lacked the typical XTC manic-groove. For "Oranges and Lemons," the bandlinked up with Paul Fox, a producer who has recorded hits for Boy George. Fox was less restrictivethan Rundgren, letting the band's creativity take over in the studio. If you've heard the album and arewaiting to see the songs live, expect to wait a long time. Partridge likes touring about as much asAlaska likes Exxon. In 1982, when the band opened for the Police, Partridge had a nervousbreakdown and decided to retire from touring. Recorded music will be the closest the band's ever-increasing audience will come to XTC. Don't expect a sell-out either, because the band members are too busy creating intoxicating pop songs and playing with their kids to appear alongside Eric Clapton and Steve Winwood in beer commercials.

Humorous and creativecampus drinking games are being compiled by Dede Widrow and Sally Srok, of Collegiate Enterprises in New York City. About 120 colleges and universities throughout the United States have beencontacted, Widrow said. "Already, we've had a great response rate." "College was where I learned todrink beer," said Widrow, who attended University of Massachusetts at Amherst and AmericanUniversity. She and Srok, who attended University of Wisconsin, decided over lunch one day that itwould be fun for college partiers to have a handbook of interesting drinking games. "I remember gettingtired of playing 'Quarters'," Widrow said. Games in the yet-untitled book will probably be groupedregionally, Widrow said. From the responses sent in so far, she noted, certain games tend to come from particular regions. For instance, she said, "I've never heard of dice games... It seems to be a trend inthe Midwest." Rootbeer swillers won't be excluded. Alternatives to swigging beer are welcome, Widrow said, since the book is not intended to promote abuse of alcohol. Clear, concise instructions andgame-rule variations should be sent to: Ms. Dede Widrow, Collegiate Enterprises, 500A E. 87th Street,Suite 4D, New York, New York, 10128. True stories and anecdotes related to the game also may beincluded. Entries must be received by May 10. By Mark Hines assistant Accent editor Hey, listen!Don't miss Earth Fair A hot, burning sun would provide the perfect setting, but rain or shine, Whatcom County's 1st Earth Fair, scheduled for tomorrow in Fairhaven Park, is destined to be an event worthperusing. The fair will kick off at 10 a.m. with a 5- and 2-mile Run for the Earth. For the next 12 hours, amultitude of folk singers, rhythm and blues, jazz and rock bands will perform, including The Web, TheSplatters and the Lloyd Johnson Blues Review. Other attractions include an environmental arts show,graffiti board, food, a kids' tent (a nice way to ditch the little gremlins for awhile), videos and informationbooths. With the exception of the bands, most of the action will be going on in the pavilion, so even if itrains you can have some fun while staying dry. Earth Fair is an excellent opportunity for people to getout, have a good time and meet artists, writers, musicians and activists concerned with saving ourplanet. With Exxon turning the once pristine Prince William Sound into oil pudding, while anxious oiltycoons chomp at the bit to start drilling off our precious Washington coastâ€”not to mention: thedepletion of the ozone layer, acid rain, global warming, toxic waste oozing all over the place, nuclearreactors blowing gaskets left and right and an Atlantic Ocean that may become uninhabitable withinthe next decadeâ€”I don't see why anyone wouldn't be concerned with saving our planet. But hey, don'ttear your hair out, just go to Earth Fair and see what right-minded people are doing about it. And don'tforget to bring some styrofoam so you can take part in the "McToxic-Campaign" activities. The plan is to send a huge supply of styrofoam to McDonald's because they keep producing the stuff for their Big Mac containers. Great stuff, styrofoam. Your burger is gone in 2 minutes, your fast-food phlegm begins inabout 5 minutes, but the box lasts forever. Styrofoam creates toxic waste when its manufactured,produces toxic emissions when you incinerate it, and serves no purpose while it's around. McDonald'sclaims they can recycle the stuff, so some very bright people at the Environmental Center decided towould be nice to give it back to them. Great plan! People who want to get involved or just happen to beflat broke can volunteer their services and avoid paying the $3 entrance fee. Oh yeah, kids get in for free, too, so bring 'em. Gym to pulsate during Powwow here Saturday Western's Carver Gym will vibrateand pulsate when drums beat out the start of the Fourth Annual Powwow at noon on Saturday, April 22. Brandy Good Buffalo, from the Pacific War Dance Council, described the colorful two-day Powwow as an opportunity for the local community to learn about American Indian culture and Plains-style dancing."The Powwow is a spectator sport," Christina Jones, a Western political science major said. "Most ofthe stuff on television is a hoax, a Hollywood Indian," she said. The Powwow presents a true image ofAmerican Indian culture; it breaks the stereotype, Jones said., Competition includes traditional American Indian dancing and a more contemporary American Indian dance, called fancy dancing. Judging is based on style of dancing, outfit and rhythm. "â€¢ Also, dance contests are scheduled for adults andchildren. Powwow features Plains-style Indian dancing and is considered a social event. It creates anopportunity to make lifelong friends. Arts, crafts and food concessions are open during the Powwow. A raffle v^ will give away merchandise donated by local merchants.

By Robert Sherry staff reporter Central is showing that they are this year's team tobeat in golf. Viking sophomore Randy Nightingale tied for the University of Puget Sound Invitational golf championship with a two-round total of 148, but ended up losing after hitting his ball in the woods onthe first hole of a sudden-death playoff Friday in Tacoma. Rich Morgan also played well for the Vikes ashe shot consecutive 75s to finish two strokes off the lead at 150. Overall, Western finished second by six strokes, losing to Central for the third time in their four meetings this season. The Viking's onlyvictory over Central was in March when the Vikes won the Willamette University Invitational. Westernplaced third at the Portland State University Invitational Monday and Tuesday in Welches, Ore."Central won. We just got wiped," three-time letterman Ed McMahon said. The scores from thattournament were unavailable Thursday. "Central is really playing well. We are really going to have to pick it up before districts," McMahon said. "I don't think any of the guys are too happy with our performances this year. The team just hasn't played as well as they are capable of as a group," said Western's HeadCoach Ron Hass. "We only have one more chance to tune-up before districts," Hass said. The Vikingswill host the Western Washington University Invitational April 27 and 28 at the Sudden Valley Golfand Country Club. Regardless of their remaining tournament performances, the team should trawlcomfortably next season. For the third year in a row, the Washington State Seniors' Golf Associationdonated $3,000 to the varsity golf team. The WSSGA donation "will be used primarily for entry fees,accomodations and other travel related expenses," Hass said. The seniors' support is fantastic andwill help the Vikings continue to compete at a very high level, Hass said. John Kienast, executivesecretary of the WSSGA, said, "We've played our tournament here for 25 years and have alwaysappreciated Bellingham and Whatcom County, so it's only natural that we give to Western." The Central and Green River Community College golf programs received $1,500 each, Kienast said. Golf has beenWestern's most successful sport. Western golf teams have won 36 league and district titles since golfbecame a varsity sport in 1931. Crew UPS Invite results April 13-14 R.

The Viking men's and women's team will participate in the Central Washington University InvitationalSaturday, in which 15 colleges and clubs are expected to compete. Rugby The Warthogs will battle the Chuckanut Bay Rugby Club at noon Saturday at Pioneer Field in Ferndale for the annual Critterden Cup. Unarmed Vikes beaten twice by Loggers By Deven Bellingar staff reporter An understaffed Westernpitching rotation proved to be no match for the University of Puget Sound, as the Loggers annihilated theViking baseball team 14-4and 13-3Tuesdayin Tacoma. Conflicting class schedules allowed only oneofthe Vikings'regularpitchers to make the trip, and the starting lineup was forced to play both gameswithout any substitutions. Aside from Dean Hove, all of Western's pitching was done by "emergency"pitchers. In the first game, Puget Sound jumped to a big 6-0. Western scored one run in the secondinning on a single by center fielder Don Mackenzie, a walk to Mike Smith and an RBI single byScott Blankenship. Puget Sound added one run in the bottom of the second and two in the third to take a commanding 9-1 advantage. Western rallied in the fourth to tighten the game. With two outs and thebases loaded, Blankenship again came through in the clutch, driving home Scott River and Russ Barrett,to make it 9-3. Blankenship eventually came around to score, bringing the Vikes within five runs. TheLoggers continued to hit at will, adding two runs in the bottom of the fourth and three in the fifth,finishing off the Vikings 14- 4. The second game began much as the same as the first, with Puget Sound scoring three runs in the first and one in the second, racing to a 3- 0 lead. Western scored a run in thethird on singles by Jensen and Mackenzie, and a Logger throwing error. The gap closed to 3-1. It wasthe Loggers' day, though, as they scored two in the third and three in the fourth, leading 9-1. Anapparent Viking comeback in the fifth turned into disappointment. Blankenship singled and JasonMellema doubled, putting men at second and third with no outs. After Jensen filed out, Mackenziesingled, with Blankenship and Mellema scoring. The rally ended, however, with Western trailing 9-3.The Loggers were not through with their scoring barrage, adding two in the fifth and sixth, to win 13-3 andsweeping the double-header. The Vikings, now with a 6-12 record, will battle Abbotsford Tuesday night on the road. Copies 2 1 / 2 â€¢ / 0 1 / _ " X / - M " \ \A/ITLJ-T-UIO An EA.

Last month, the government added a clause to financial aid forms as partof its goal to make America drug-free by 1995. By signing their names underneath this clause, studentsswear to "not engage in the dispensation, possession or use of a controlled substance" during the timethey receive federal funds. But taking the oath is the easy part. Students caught possessing drugs orusing them could lose financial aid for up to one year, be forced to complete a drug treatment program(which would include periodic testing) or be forced to do community work. Drug-selling students can loseall federal benefits for up to five years if convicted. Ludicrous? Yes, and also insulting. Students have ahard enough time paying for an education without the Federal government playing mother. The drugclause immediately raises enforcement problems. It currently works on the honor system. Blood testsaren't required yetâ€”not until the government finds out a student has been naughty would that studentactually be punished (which seems unlikely, since that would mean delving into local police reports). Byattaching this clause to financial aid forms, the government appears to be attempting to make studentapplicants model citizens. To be fair to everyone, state and federal governments should add drugclauses to everything from checking out library books to getting driver's licenses and collecting socialsecurity. But attaching such a clause to financial aid or anything else with little hope of enforcement isunrealistic. After all, the government is possibly picking the worst possible crowd to restrict with suchrules: College students are notorious for their use and abuse of heavy-duty drugs, such as alcohol andcaffeine. The government isn't out of line to set rules for how the money it loans is to be spent. But it isoppressive when it starts telling people who borrow money how to live. Such actions won't solve the drugproblem, but they might lead to further invasions of privacy and a greater popularity of loan sharks.

Jump on the 'ban' wagon Put brakes on barring bikes I f cyclophobics can waste timeattempting a ridiculous ban on bicycles on campus, I figure there must be great fun in trying to bancommon, everyday things. I decided to get on the "ban" wagon. Here are a few things I would like to getrid of. The dangers of the following items are equal to the dangers of bikes on campus. 1. Long hair andpony tails: Western Washington is far too windy for long hair to be allowed. Someone sitting next to aperson with long locks risks the danger of losing an eye or being inflicted with a hair ball if a stiff windpicks up and blows the hair in his/her direction. Pony tails are very dangerous because the hair isconcentrated in one spot and packs a more powerful punch. 2. Driving 45 miles per hour on the freeway: The irritation caused by becoming stuck on the freeway behind someone not obeying the speed Hmitincreases tension, making the Molly Krogstadt staff reporter driver more at risk for heart attack ormental illness. It will be difficult to enforce this ban, but no more difficult than forcing people off theirpeddles. Ban organizers need not be concerned with enforcement, but focus their concern on outlawingwhat they don't like. 3. Classes beginning at 8 a.m.: Many college students must work to supportspending habits. These jobs usually consist of night-time work, causing the student to return home late.Early morning classes deprive these students of an adequate amount of sleep. Or to receive a normalamount of sleep, valuable class time is missed, creating a decreased educational value. The oppositionmight say some people need early classes because they have afternoon job's or commitments, andsome just prefer morning classes. Well, some people need to ride their bikes and some people just liketo ride their bikes. So if the anti-bikers don't have to think of these issues, neither do I. Here is the onlyban worth any merit: 4. Ban the ban on bikes: If for some reason the bike ban actually goes through,there will be no way to actually enforce it. Therefore, if no one respects this ban, which deserves norespect, people will still be able to ride through campus, and no rights will be lost. Adhering to a bikeban may only be the start of more bans on other activities. Next thing you know, we might all have to cut our hair. No more wire hangers... Cartoon belongs in dumpster T he depiction of a "fetus" trashdumpster in Brian Prosser's editorial cartoon (published on April 14) is the raunchiest, most distastefulpiece of "art" I have ever seen. The publishing of Prosser's work is the low point of the year for the Front.I'm angry, and I know many other men and women feel the same. What was Prosser trying to suggest â€” that fully developed babies are being thrown into dumpsters? Or was he merely trying to shock,anger and torment women who have endured the trauma of having an abortion? Prosser's cartoon isa manifestation of the lack of sensitivity among self-righteous individuals who have never had to dealwith an unwanted pregnancy. It's bad enough that women are raped and taken advantage of; that women become pregnant when they lack the resources to care for their child. They shouldn't be harassed byholy crusaders who block their entrance to clinics and subject them to distasteful propaganda likeProsser's cartoon. And.as if things weren't bad enough, the crusaders may get their way. The UnitedStates Supreme Court will hear the case of Webster vs. Reproductive Health Services on April 26. It'squite possible the court may overturn the 1973 Roe vs. Wade ruling legalizing abortion. Abortions may be outlawed, but women will continue to have them. Instead of a safe, sterile, professional abortion,women will be forced to resort to "back alley" abortions. The thought of returning to those days of goremakes me far queasier than looking at Prosser's thoughtless and thoroughly tasteless cartoon. If onlythe pro-lifers would stop and think about the consequences qf their crusade. It's so easy to say "abortion is wrong, so let's outlaw it." But what about the alternatives? Is it right that women should die becausethey're denied the medical attention they need? I'd like Brian and all the other pro-lifers to take a breakfrom all the crusading and really think about what it's like to be a human in possession of free-will. Theyshould think about what it's like to have someone else take control of their bodies. They should makethemselves imagine what it would be like to perform a coat hanger abortion upon themselves. Then theyshould pray that abortion is never outlawed again. ---------- Western Front - 1989 April 21 - Page 11 ---------- The Western Front April 21,1989 11 Letters Mexican food, Bundy, abortion Editor, Concerning abortion, the positions of pro-choicers like Bill Bokam-per are startling. From a letter in the Front, I cansummarize his stance: A fetus, barely recognizable and not viable outside of the womb, is sounimportant that abortion is acceptable not only when a mother's life is at risk but when psychological,financial or societal burden will result from the eventual birth. This rationale is strikingly similar tothat employed for the execution of Ted Bundy. Not only was he a threat to women's lives, but also tothe taxpayers' pocketbooks. And psychologically, there was the matter of capitulating to thebloodthirsty mob. Surely there must be a more compelling argument for abortion that the samepsychological-financial- societal one employed for capital punishment. No, the defense rests withthe assertion that the fetus is a thing, rather like a recipe for Mexican food. For who will blame thecook for discarding the recipe when she knows it will give her and her patrons heartburn? Comparingfetuses to serial murderers and Mexican recipes is ludicrous, but not superfluous here. I endeavor topersuade that if human, they deserve better than Bundy; and if merely things, their potential is so greatas to warrant a little heartburn. Bill Nicholas junior, political science major Pre-registration for poli-sciset Editor, Yourarticle on "registration has minor problems" was written when I was out of town at aprofessional meeting for three days. Had I been reached for comment, I would have provided the following information. The department has not committed itself to fall-quarter advance registration. The currentproposal would provide advance registration Editor's Job Opening Klipsun Fall Quarter 1989 Opening:Klipsun Editor, pay estimated at $575 per quarter. To Apply: submit resume and statement of intentionby 1 p.m., May 9,1989 to Acting Chair, Student Publications Council, CH 212. All applicants will beinterviewed at the selection meeting starting at 4p.m., Thursday, May 11, 1989 in CH 131. For furtherinformation contact the Publications Business Office, CH 7, 676-3171 for winter and spring quartersonly. In addition, we are considering advance registering two-thirds of the seats in the courses andpossibly less than that in GUR courses. Between "open" fall quarter enrollment and a larger allowancethan was made last time for non-advance registered students, we intend to make the courses moreaccessible to minors, as well as to others. By retaining a limited advance registration for winter andspring, we can continue to assist our majors with their course completion requirements. The numberof declared majors typically rises through the year as students decide on their programs. The storymentioned an increase of 50 majors this quarter. It is important to know that half of these signed up after advance registration, not before. The purpose of advance registration is to make the best use ofavailable resources. Our initial effort this spring helped resolve a critical "backlog" problem for ourmajors. We welcome suggestions from the university community on how to reconcile the variety ofinterests involved as a longer term plan is developed. Kenneth R. Hoover Professor and ChairmanPolitical Science Department Give equal time to pro-abortion Editor, I am really offended by BrianProsser's so-called editorial cartoon that appeared in the April 14 issue of the Front. I'm not appalled bythe abrupt message that it obviously conveys; no, I am just pissed off that you would allow him to get acartoon like that printed. I could almost give a shit what Mr. Prosser's stand is on the abortion issue. Ihave always believed that newspapers should objectively present both sides of all issues, especially ahot issue like abortion; it is such an unwinnable argument. Earlier in the year, you allowed a guestcolumnist to write a pro-life article, and I was enraged because you failed to print a prorchoice response.That column should have never been printed. But when I saw that damn cartoon, it was the proverbiallast straw. If they wish to express their pro-life beliefs, let them do so in privately funded pamphlets, so I can choose to ignore it. There's no place for journalism like that unless both sides of the issue aregiven equal (space). I hope you have a new editorial cartoonist next year. I hate all of Prosser's cartoonsand have yet to laugh at one all year. Brian M. Pederson junior, marine biology major Don't use dorm;call them halls Editor, I am a sophomore at this fine institution and have lived 18 of the last 21 monthsin 421 Kappa-Theta Hall. My room, with the vast majority of rooms in the on-campus housingsystem, is more than just a place to sleep. It's a place where you are encouraged to learn and grow. And I feel it safe to say that I have grown as a person and learned much by living here. This is why thebuildings that contain these rooms are called RESIDENCE HALLS. They are no longer calleddormitories. The word "dormitory" no longer is applicable to the function of these buildings. The reason I felt compelled to write this letter to you is twofold: I am tired of reading the word "dorm" in your finepaper when you are really referring to a "hall." (See, they both have the same number of letters so you're not saving space by using "dorm" or losing space by using "hall.") And I am also tired of hearingpeople complain about it and say they are going to write a letter, and then they neverdo (or else youaren't publishing them, but I can't believe that would be the case). The gist of this letter is simple.Please stop using the word "dorm" andreplaceitwith"hall."It wouldn't be tod hard to do, and it would suremake at least a third of the student body happy. Thanks.

Residents already are unableto enter their housing without assistance between quarters because the university plugs the locksafter the resident advisers and resident directors leave the premises. Director and chairwoman of thecommittee, Kay Rich, said $10 is a fair amount to charge students to enter their dorm rooms orapartments. The charge compensates the custodial staff members who must leave Debate Continued from page 1 In response to recent ethics violations, Eskelin said, "Just because he was a womanizerand he drank, Democrats (condemned) John Tower ... Maybe all men are womanizers." "You can'texpect a man to go into office and be as pure as snow," Lane said. With the opposite view, Murraysaid, "The Reagan administration almost institutionalized corruption." In an argument against welfare,Lane said, "Let (the poor) control their lives a little bit ... The less government, the better." Student MikeMarsh said the government needs to "lower the wealth of the rich" and to cut down consumption inorder to save the environment. "Everyone's going to suffer... if things don't change," he said. Murraysaid the Democratic Party believes the solution is to increase the wealth of the poor. Halbert blamed thefree-enterprise system for the widening gap between the rich and the poor. "As for over-consumption, it sounds like progress is the problem. I don't see how you can stop progress," Lane said. "Penalizingthe rich just for being rich isn't a good way to do things," Eskelin added. Referring to changing policies in the Soviet Union, Lane said Republicans "stick with the 'Peace through strength' doctrine." TheSoviet Union is held "in an aura of disinformation," Halbert said. With Gorbachev in power, "you can seea lot of changes occurring." She said an example of the new, open form of government was a recentSoviet television broadcast of "performance art." A woman was sprayed with whipped cream and lickedclean. "The time of the Cold War rhetoric is over," she said. In defense of the Bush administration'spro-life stance, Lane said, "Republicans believe life begins at conception ... The fetus has legal right tolive." Murray said he declined to make a decision on abortion because "... I'm not going to get pregnant." "Even if it's your baby?" a fe-jnale student asked him. "That's something I'll have to think about when Ibecome sexually active," Murray replied. plpianned Parenthood 734-9095 (Bcllingham) 336-5728 (Mt.Vernon) Resume Service â€¢ Quality Copies â€¢ Fine Stationery â€¢ Matching Envelopes kinko'sOpen 24 Hours 647-1114 comer of Holly Garden Collision Specialty YOUR COMPLETE AUTO BODY CENTER -FOREIGN- .

WO BUNSETl their duties to assist and escort people inentering their dorm rooms. "It's a fee for service," she said. "We have to pull an employee off their job tomonitor, escort and do the paperwork." The committee said the time period when the fee begins wouldstart after the R. A. and R.D. have left the premises. Any person who enters on-cam-pus housingwithout asking the university security for assistance will be dealt with as a trespasser, Rich said. Rich said she doesn't expect the fee to inconvenience many students, since only five requests out of 2,600students came last year to obtain entry into residences between quarters. Committee memberssurveyed most of the residence hall's councils to tabulate their responses to the service charge. All ofthe Higginson Hall residents who attended the meeting were opposed to the charge, but the other hallsthat were queried, including, Delta, Alpha, Mathes and Nash were in agreement with the fee. JamContinued from page 1 historical context you can't separate it from the fact that it was a form ofentertainment derogatory to black people ... it was not to flatter black folks." Bryan contacted MikeBartosh, director of Residence Life, who conducted his own investigation of the incident. Many blackstudents protested the act, said Pamela Gant, a senior and former head of Western's Black StudentsNetwork. "The night of the event one of the students called me and told me about it. The kids who hadseen it were quite upset. They couldn't believe something like that was happening at Western. "Western has a problem," she said, "because the student majority tends to ignore racial and cultural differences.There is a certain naivete with the students here. But if you let people get away with these things, thenwhat's to stop them from doing something a little bit worse next time?" Performers in Mr. Western andother shows have worn black makeup in previous years, but Bryan said his office received nocomplaints. Gant said that could have been because there were so few minority students at Westernthen, and aggressive recruiting has since brought many blacks and other minorities to campus. Notall students said they found the makeup offensive. If applied well, black-face makeup can be donetastefully, said Joyce Buchanan, president of Higginson Hall, which sponsored Mr. Western. She said a group last year appeared onstage in black-face, and "unless you knew, you couldn't tell theyweren't black." "I don't think it's totally a color issue," she said. "If it was somebody pretending to be any other race, including white, it could be offensive." Buchanan said Craig Stambach's makeup in Mr.Western was blotchy and obvious, and she could see how it might have seemed offensive. Buchananwas not aware Stam-bach would appear in black face. "If I was, I probably would have been moreinvolved and said we should make sure it wouldn't be offensive." Stambach could not be reached forcomment, but Bryan and Gant both said he had apologized later to black students for the act. One other student with ties to both events said people had overreacted to the act but asked not to be quoted forfear of putting his campus job in jeopardy. tift * gt; : ^J^Pietro's Pizza All-You-Can-Eat-Italian-BuffetPizzas Pastas Sauces Salads Desserts $4.69 $5.89 LUNCH DINNER Mon.-Sat.

One of our fellow students, Bill Tiffany, is assured a place on the Board of Control while the remaining candidates will battle it out for the other two positions next week tffll Tiffany, WWCol-legion broadcast _ editor and announcer will take his place along with the two people elected Tuesday at the board's rectangular table this winter quarter. Getting back to this week's and also next week's election—we wonder how many of WWC's loyal citizens are going to the polls to vote next week. Last week, after all those, reminders that were printed in this corner only 51 per cent of the students voteoV Maybe you aren't interested in who spends the $5.65 you shell out for student body fees each quarter? The feminine enrollment in this noble institution is especially indifferent when it comes to selecting student represen t a t i v e s Maybe they don't appreciate the privilege of voting. Maybe only men ought to vote? What do you think, fellows—and girls? The polls will be open from 8 a. m. to 4 p. m. next Tuesday, December 3—How about spending a moment at the polling booth in room 112? Oh, by the way, is your name mentioned among that vast number of lazy collegiate citizens which is printed elsewhere on this page? To the everlasting shame of the future, we list the names of those WWC students who weren't interested, who didn't care enough about who represented them on the Board, who were just too tired to vote Wednesday. Most disheartening fact of all was that quite a few of the names about to be mentioned are those of WWCollegian staff members. After reminders and REMINDERS and still more BE M I N D E R S were published in this paper and the election was brought to the notice of those few students who attend musical assemblies, still, still only a measly few voted. Just to make sure we wont have to publish the names of Collegian staff members next week, we are putting their names in bold face type. Will YOUR name be listed to these columns next week or are you going to vote in the general election next Tuesday? Barbee, Margare M. Bartlett, Anne Women E. Bateman, Anne B.

VOL. XXXL—NO. 9 Western Washington College of Education, Bellingham, Washington Friday, November 29, 1940 TIFFANY ELECTED TO BOARD 'Bachelor Born' Stands First Night Review Before Critical Eye of Cedarstrom By Dr. Moyle F. Cederstrom Last night's production of BACHELOR BORN, with Clayton Ross in the role of Donkin, brings to the Blue Room of Edens hall Ian Hay's delightful story of life at Marbledown school, in pre-blitzkreig England. It is a charming comedy—a sparkling play of the repercussions aroused by suddenly saddling Mr. Donkin, master of Red House, affectionately known as "the old Moke", with the responsibility of controlling three thoroughly irrepressible young girls—14 year old Buttons; 18 year old Chris; and 20 year old Rosemary—the children of Donkin's one and only love. Things happen—and continue to happen. The boys of Red House fall in love in a body; Mr. Ovington, "the Egg—give him three groans"—headmaster of the school becomes over officious; conspiracies; the boys revolt; Donkin takes their part and resigns; the BUDC (back up Donkin Club) goes into action and everything ends happUy with Donkin becoming headmaster. This hasty summary of the play in no way conveys the charm of the play itself... For the play is England --^-the- England . of., Mr„ Chips;:-.oJL. Mrs. Miniver. One is reminded of Tom Brown's School Days—of news reeled Eton school boys in caps and striped blazers—of Mario and Oliver Alden at the station in San-tayana's The Last Puritan. The entire cast succeeded very well in the difficult task of building up that intangible quality known as atmosphere. By the start of the second act, one forgets that he is sitting on a hard wood chair; forgets he is facing across Continued on Page Three. Publicity Hounds Make the Columns; Proud? What Do You Think? My, and areri't there a lot of names in this week's paper? One story has over 4?0 names of people in it. Maybe they are proud of that. We're not. In looking over tha't list, we discovered lots of football players names in it. Maybe you guys "don't realize it but the Board of Control decides the athletic budget for 1941. Maybe you like to play in old equipment. Sure you do. •Lots of band members didn't vote. Bet that Don Bushell will appreciate that. His budget comes out of ASB funds. Board of Control dispenses those funds. We should talk. Staff members of both Collegian and Klipsun were too lazy to cast their ballot.. That's really nice. The argument has been raised, "Why should I vote when I don't know anything about the candidates." That's pretty feeble. The candidates were nominated a good 20 days ago and that is plenty of time to familiarize yourself with them. All'in all, we're pretty darn disgusted with the 430-odd names listed at the top of this page. Dateline . • . Friday, November 29 "Bachelor Born," Edens Hall Blue room, 8:15 . p. m.

Please call Barbara Olson at Edens hall, phone 2961, ,.•% Today we bring you a human interest story from behind the scenes at St. Vitus hosptal. At the end of the corridor we see young Dr. Killdead, (the cut-up type) who is talking to his assistant Dr. Jim Nasium, (who keeps his patients in stitches). Nearby stands his charming nurse, Ann Bulance, who is a beautiful siren. They were trying to decide what to do about the case in room 812 (green). The patient was a card shark who had swallowed a deck of cards and every time he burped, some one got aced out. They decided it was a poor deal and moved on toward the operating room. "Say," said Dr. Killdead, "Would you like to go to a movie tonight, Ann? Eye ear that Venus de Milo is starring in 'Farewell to Arms'." "Well, that's all right," said Ann, who was cutting up behind his back and got a little behind in her work, "but I'd rather see 'The Life of Florence Nightingown'." They went on down the hall and as they pass one of the rooms, the nurse came running out and cried, "Oh, Doctor! My patient has flu!" "Oh, for Heaven's ache!" said the Doctor, "Where to? Who . with?" Next they took the elevator up to the floorth floor (it was heavy too) when a voice of an old woman was heard. "Oh, Doctor," called the woman who was listening to the radio, "come here, I believe I'm getting lumbago." "Well, turn it, off," replied Dr.| Killdead, "You won't be able to understand a word they say." Just then an old Zombie zoomed by in a wheel-chair and shouted to Ann, "Pardon me, but you look like Helen White. Why don't you stomach and 'see me Some time?" Gad! disease things go on ali the time? (yes, infect worse). Well, I'm going to take powder. "Shoot the hurst to me nurse." so lung!

Dr. Nash arrived from South Dakota . last week, and with Mrs. Nash, moved into his new home on Sixteenth street where he will settle down to enjoy a rest from active administrative duties. I t was no casual visit that Dr. Nash paid to Yanktown. Only after graduating from t h at school and teaching there for 10 years did he come to the Normal as president i n 1 9 1 4 Dr. George W. Nash In 1922 he resigned from the presidency of t h e Normal school to,assume the presidency .of the Congregational (church)) Foundation for Education at Chicago. Three years later, back again, he accepted the presidency of Yanktown college where he served for 15 years until the first of this month when he resigned. Dr. Nash has always wanted to return to the Northwest where he made many friends during his eight-year stay. Mrs. Nash is remembered by many for her singing. Their son, Newman, a physician in Wichita, Kansas, returned to this city last August when a reunion of his Normal Campus School boys club was held. The Nash's other child, a daughter, Margaret, is in Everett. Dr. Nash was the second head of the Normal school, succeeding the late Dr. E. T. Mathes who served as the president for 15 years. After Dr. Nash, came Dr. Dwight B. Waldo, here only a year. The next, President C. H. Fisher, held office for 16 years, then was succeded by Dr. W. W. Haggard. Dr. Nash will not sever his connections in South Dakota. Just before leaving, the President-Emeritus of Yanktown college received from the National Education association an emeritus life membership. He will also pursue work on the College Alumnae association and will lend aid to his successor.

If there is any shouting to do, we're going to get a seat in the front row ond holler our heads off. During the year there were athletes that played steady and highly commendable football; then there were the fellows who became inspired and shone like an early evening Venus for but short spurts in various" games, and lastly there were/the boys capable of turning in only fair performances, but who nevertheless gave all they had. From this group of some 200 Winco football players, we have chosen 11 men who in our opinion rate'tops in the conference because of all-around ability and steady, sterling football. Now we're in the front seat so let's holler. Here they come. EARL PLATT, a Pacific Lutheran personality, who was the chief target of Tommervik's bullet tosses and who did more than his share in holding up the Lute line, gets first choice for one end position. His 190 pounds of bulk was a Gibraltar on. defense. A tall, rugged, good pass-snatcher, in the form of A L GOODMAN from Ellensburg, teams up with Piatt at end to give a real star combination of wingmen. This is Goodman's second trip on the all-star gravy train. Resting in one tackle spot is A L ANDERSON, Olson's mainstay in the Pacific Lutheran line. Shining on defense, the gigantic Lute stopped many offensive thrusts into the Parkland forward wall. DUB MEYERS, equally big tackle from Cheney, climbed the all-star hill for his second consecutive year. The big boy at times trots back into the Savage backfield to boom punts for Red Reese. At guard, JIM HOLLINGSWORTH, "Firebug" to WWC'ers, played good ball all season and saw 60 minutes of action in nearly every contest. Jimmy was the chief cog in the Vik line and smeared plenty of plays. BOB COY, who does his pigskin performing for Nick (the Pick) rests in the other guard slot. Coy is fast, aggressive, and handles his bulk very effectively. He was chosen on the second team last season. At center is R A Y SATTERLEE, of Cheney. Besides being snapper-back, Satterlee sports an educated kicking toe. He's the boy who assured a Savage victory in this year's Homecoming fracas when he split the uprights for the extra point. Three of the backs selected for the first eleven are halfbacks but show me the coach who wouldn't trade his favorite birddog for a combination like them. With KNOWLES blocking, SINCLAIR kicking, TOM-MERVIK passing, and HARSHMAN cracking the line, only a line of Mel Hein's could bottle up such an offense. The entire quartet £re shifty, open field runners with both Knowles and Harshman packing enough beef to be powerful plunging backs. Tommervik has received nationwide recognition for his passing ability and Sinclair, the only St. Martin man selected, led the Winco in kicking this year. Sinclair is also a speed merchant deluxe. There they are. We're finished hollering, so let's hear from the gallery. Maybe your outfit doesn't line up with ours but I'll bet my old red huntin' hat that we'll give your selections an uncomfortable afternoon.

Another Lutheran team mate, Marvel Harshman, lacked but one vote as a unanimous choice. Captain Tom O'Donnell of the Montana University eleven, and Coy of Central Washington college were just three votes short of making it unanimous. The University of Montana, Cheney's first opponent who downed them. 9 to 0 in the opening game of the season at Missoula, placed four men on the team, with Pacific Lutheran, the Winco champion, placing three men for second. Central and Western Washington college's each placed two men on the selection, with St. Martins college, the new addition to the conference failing to pull enough votes for any particular position.

Application Forms for Deferment Tests Ready at Draft Board Application blanks and informationconcerning the selective srevice college aptitude tests are now available at the local selective serviceboard office. The local draft board is located in the Clover building, 203 W. Holly street. Students who areregistered elsewhere may obtain ^applications at this office The aptitude tests will be given at WesternWashington college on May 16, June 16, and June 30, and at Trustees Plan Changes in CampusScene LATE BULLETIN Wage and salary increases effecting faculty and staff members andstudent assistants were authorized by the Board of Trustees in its meeting yesterday afternoon.Student wages were raised to 80 cents per 60-mihute hour, an over-all rate that will pre-' vail for allstudent jobs. The present standard is 60 cents per hour, with variations. "There will be no graduatedscale," said Pres. W. W. Haggard. "Details will be worked out later." Non-faculty s t a f f members areto be given increases ranging from $300 to $400 yearly, depending on length of service and degree ofresponsibility. The salary schedule adopted - for faculty members is as follows: instructors, $3300-$3900; assistant professors, $4000-$4700; associate professors, $4800-$5700; professors, $5800-$6500. "There is something that compels us to stay off the grass here at Western," stated President W. W. Haggard this week. "Many visitors comment upon the beauty of the grounds and wish their collegewere as beautiful as ours." (Continued on Page 8) Famed Hungarian Quartet to Appear Here AgainTuesday Tuesday morning, April 24, the famous Hungarian String Quartet will again appear in thecollege auditorium as part of the artist and lecture series. This group needs no introduction tothose who have been on the campus the past two years. After brilliant individual careers, these fourorganized their now well-known ensemble in 1935. Their rise to fame in all parts of Europe was repeatedin America, when they made their debut here in the fall of 1948. This was followed by a concert tour in1949-50 and they are now on the third transcontinental tour of the United States. Jerome D. Bonn, w r i t i n g for the New York Herald-Tribune says, "This listener has never heard anything finer in the way ofstring quartet playing . .. such music making is all too rare and is only to be found when such self-effacing, accomplished players unite for the sole purpose of serving the composers other collegesthroughout the country on the same three dates. Under existing draft regulations, postponed inductionis provided for college students who meet standards of scholastic achievement or who score at least 70on the aptitude test. Achievement standards under the present regulation are as-follows: for freshmen,upper one-half; for sophomores, upper two-thirds; for juniors, upper three-fourths. WHO IS ELIGIBLE Students are eligible to take the test who intend to request occupational deferment as students, who are under 26 years of age, who are satisfactorily pursuing a full-time college or university course leading to a degree, and who have not previously taken the test. The test is not one of factual informationbut is a three-hour test on a student's ability to learn on the college level. The most important part of thetest is an ability to read and understand. A full description of test items is contained in informationsheets available at the local draft board. Dr. Merle S. Kuder, director of student personnel, recommendsthat all eligible men take the test. They have nothing to lose and much to gain. If a man is below therequired standing in his class, or thinks that he may fall below it at some future time, the test will helphim in securing deferment. If he is above the required standing in class, but falls below the cut-offscore on the test, he is eligible for deferment anyway. "The requirement for deferment is either thenecessary class standing or the required test scoreâ€”not both. This test should enable many men totake much of the speculation out of their futures and allow them to know where they stand." Gov. Langlie to Address Grads The Honorable Arthur B. Langlie. Governor of Washington, will be the main guestspeaker at the 1951 commencement exercises at Western Washington college, Friday, June 8. Thisyear's graduating class will have the distinction of being the first group to receive their diplomas from thestage of the new Auditorium- Music building. Dave Grocott, senior class president, urges allprospective graduates to order and pay for their caps, gowns, and announcements in the co-op thisweek. Cards will be issued to seniors through the Dean of Women's office next week which will entitleeach participating senior to three tickets for commencement exercises. A meeting of the senior classwill be held very soon to clear up any whose music they have chosen to questions about graduation,accord interpret. ing to Grocott. ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1951 April 20 - Page 2 ---------- EDITORIALS Democracy Has Need Of Scholarships One fact that appears to be too easily forgottenby critics of the deferment of college students is that it is defermentâ€”temporary postponement ofserviceâ€”that is established by present reg-ulations, not permanent exemption. Those who qualify fordeferment on the basis of their scholastic record or test achievement will not escape service, but will beexpected to serve their nation later, at a time when they will be more trained, able to render more valuable service than if untrained. While the objective standards of class standing and test scores cutdemocratically across racial, religious, and, to a certain extent, financial lines, the deferment system has an undemocratic angle in that it does not give equal opportunity to the young men with limited financialbackground, but who have the ability to do outstanding college work. This is not the fault of the deferment system; it is a long-standing problem in our country brought into sharper focus by the draft situation.More than ever before, we are able to see tfiat it is to the interests of the nation to inaugurate a federalscholarship-fellowship program, so that all those who possess college abilities will have the chance toget to college. Democracy calls for maximum opportunities for all those Capable of taking advantage ofthem! world conditions today and tomorrow call for full development of America's largestj resource, heryouth. Earl J. McGrath, U. S. Commissioner or Education, said last week, "Unless all young men who come to military age and wish to go to college are financially able to do so, deferring of students wouldbe undemocratic. Likewise, unless all who possess college abilities have the chance to get to college,the national interest suffers." Farewell to Freedom It seems that the Campus day dictators this yearhave deprived Western men of their privilege to decide for themselves whether or not to grow a beard. Not that any man was ever really free to decide .Wives, girl friends, student teaching supervisors, andemployers have been known to lay down the law in years past, to keep their men cleanshaven.Imposing a monetary fine and hustling them off to a midget-sized "brig" is hardly a democratic way oftreating those whose wives, occupations, or personal preferences keep them beardless. Nor does itcontribute constructively to a proper Campus day spirit. The dissension and resentment suchtreatment arouses is apt to backfire against those who think they can generate an enthusiasticCampus day spirit by methods of force and compulsion.

On May 1-2 (less than two weeks from now) the ASB Primary elections will beheld. At the present time the usual high interest about who will be n e x t year's ASB president and vice-president, is as cold as last winter's snow. It is about time that someone started getting a little interest. I don't think I need to remind you that the ASB president next year is going to be faced with a dwindling budget and all the problems that arise with it. It has always been customary for the present ASBpresident to keep his nose out of the elections and this I intend to do, but I would like to urge you tostart thinking about some candidates and get them nominated. ~ All nominations should be turned into the Inter-club council no later than next Friday. So how about itâ€”let's start getting those campaignposters up and let's get a little life in the Student Body for the next three weeks. * * * As an addedthought: let's keep that interest up at least four weeks. Campus day is coming on May 16. As has beencustomary for many years we are growing beards. It is hoped that the student teachers (who cannot forprofessional reasons) and those general dissenters (who will not because they are asked to) will buy abeardless tag for 10 cents. This tag system has been inaugurated to help finance our Campus day thisyear. With a little cooperation and a little interest from the student body I am sure we can have a greatCampus day this year. AT OTHER COLLEGES As Pulitzer Said, 'An Editor Has No Friends' Editor Don Jaenicke of the College of Puget Sound Trail, discovered in a survey that some students accused himof favoring the faculty and administration too much. , He is still disliked by some faculty membersbecause of an editorial urging that faculty members be required to pay for their activity cards. * * *From Illinois Tech comes this complaint from a co-ed: "Everything I want to do is either illegal,-immoralâ€” or fattening." An intellect friend of hers asks this question: "Heaven protects the workinggirl, But Heaven, I fear, is shirking; For who protects, I'd like to know, The fellow she is working." Thestudent government council, representing the students of the University of Chicago, recently voted downtwo proposals to aid in the fight to save Willie McGee. They declined to wire President Truman,demanding his intervention to prevent McGee's execution or to invite all students on campus to doso. A COMPLACENT GLOW ... . The Student Life at Washington university, Missouri, last weekcarried a front page editorial which asked: "Are you in favor of admission of qualified Negro graduatestudents to WU? We are. And we think you are. ' "If you are, you have a responsibility. You can't, sitback in the glow of complacent but action-less liberalism . . . Get on the record. Let the University knowthat you favor Negro admission. "Let WU know that, if it works to admit Negroes, it has your support. Domore than that: do some thinking about these problems. Make an effort to present your conclusions tothe student body as a whole and to the University." * * * Betaâ€”"Did you pass Trig?"

LITTLEMAN ON CAMPUS By Bibler 'He'll be more careful about knocking those hurdles over from now onâ€”Ihad that one sunk in concrete." Aspiring Authors Given Advice By Michener, Pulitzer Winner "Americais hungry for good writers," stated James Michener, author of the Pulitzer p r i ze South Pacific."Michener appeared on the Artists and Lecture series April 13. Probably no man in America isbetter qualified to make this statement than the stocky middle- aged novelist who gathered material for his book while serv- Faculty Politics Rough Game; Brewster Sore Skullduggery on the part of facultypoliticians is strongly suspected by observers of last week's Faculty forum nominations and elections. More confusing" and complicated than an income tax form is the flash bulletin sent out by FrankPunches, chairman of the forum's nominating committee. ; It reads: "The offices of alternate dele- .' gate to WEA and of membership on the forum Executive Committee are synonomous. The al- : ternatedelegate automatically - becomes the member of the Executive Committee. The nomi- ' natingcommittee has proposed two candidates for each office. j We have prevailed upon Dr. ! Freehill and Mr.Brewster to ; withdraw as candidates for the non-existent office of member of the Executive Committee.Dr. Freehill does so willingly; Mr. Brewster likewise, tho' his arm will be in a cast for several days." (Our sympathy, Mr. Brewster. Politics is a tough game. Ed.) Punches concludes the bulletin: "Irespectfully suggest that ability to read be a prerequisite for chairmanship of the nominatingcommittee." (A spelling lesson wouldn't hurt, either. It's "synonymous." Ed.) ing as a Naval historian inthe South Pacific. In his discussion with a group of potential writers after the assembly Michenerstressed the difficulty which a young author would encounter in trying to publish his work. He alsooutlined the best methods which the beginner can employ to gain recognition. "Until you nave written,"stated Michener, "nobody wants you. After you have written, everyone wants you.'"

Barnes and Co. has shown a greatdeal of interest in the book, according to Mr. Lappenbusch, and 10 chapters have been sent in for theirinspection. In commenting on his book, Mr. Lappenbusch states that the straight line principle treats the game as a whole instead of specializing on certain parts, such as running, kicking, and passing. Hefeels that this principle will reduce deliberate confusion created by the opponents. ' Mr. Lappenbuschsaid that he has received numerous inquiries about the book from other schools, including theUniversity of Oregon.

Gates is on the front lines in Korea with theinfantry. In part his letter says: "By now the college baseball squad is under swing. Sure would like to bebehind that old plate again this year, but there is a bigger job over here. I am ready to leave this placehowever. "I saw by the Collegian they had an article on blood donation.

Bailey was slated to be on Western's football line last year, but Uncle Sam said no. "I still receive the Collegian right along, and I again want to thank all of you who areresponsible for it being sent to us in service. Pass the word around, will you, I enjoyed the whole thing . . . Was surprised to read that the Evergreen league dropped baseball! I didn't realize that the (schools werethat hurt by the 'war'.'' There is a long story with that one, Ed, but it just seems to be one of those thingsthat isn't being brought out in the open.

Portland University Defeats Western'sTrackmen With Final Score of 78-52 By GENE CARAKER Portland university downed Western'sthinclads Saturday, April 14, at Portland, Oregon by a score of 78-52. Ten of Western's cinder-burners garnered points for the blue and white, while the Viks were picking up four firsts, six seconds andfour thirds, not including a first in the relay which was run by Al Meuli, Dave Grocott, Gerald Reinertand anchorman Bill Garrison. Rufus Winters, who has been all but magnificent in the pole vault thisyear, turned in a terrific job at Portland with a leap of 12 feet to place first in that event. The "all-aroundman of the squad, Mordris Pederson, placed first in the 220 low hurdles, third in the broad jump, and dida very respectable job patting the shot and running the 100. According to Coach Ciszek, Peterson,if he keeps improving, will probably place in mosl of his events later in the season. Gerald Reinert wasthe high point getter for Western, racking up 9% points. He placed first in the high hurdles and second in the high jump, taking a back seat only to Jack Bowman, who annexed first with a leap of 5 feet: 5inches. Reinert also ran one leg on the winning relay team. George McPherson and Carl Linde finished one-two in the two-mile run while Bill Daws was nicked at the tape by team-mate Reinert and had tosettle for a second in the high hurdles.

Western goes into the meet without benefit of knowing what caliber of talent Central has fielded, as the Wildcats haven't had a meet to date. Modris Peterson, Western's "decathlon" performer, hasshown exceptional form and is really an outstanding prospect in the 220 low-hurdles. Another boythat will give the Wildcats lots of trouble is Rufus Winters. Winters has been improving all year longand should better 12 feet before the season is over.

Although sun bathing heads the list of important activities, there are plenty of others according to Miss Margaret Aitken, WRAadviser. The Women's Recreation association is very active in women's sports Mid one doesn't have to be a member to participate in them. Supervising the high school sports day today is one veryimportant job. Another intercollegiate sports day is coming up soon which members are planning for.May 26, WRA is sponsoring an overnight trip to the college cabin on Sinclair island in Puget Sound.Non-member girls have to contribute only 50 cents to this event. Besides the special WRA projects,the Women's PE department sponsors many weekday sports for the athletic-minded. It begins onMonday with Blue Barnacles, the girls' swimming club, which meets at 4:00 in the college pool. To be amember, one must have an above average stroke and o ne must be able to dive off the board. The clubspecializes in fancy and synchronized swimming rather than speed or competitive exhibitions. The 20members are now practicing for a water show in May for the PE open house. Tuesday and Wednesdayare the busy days for after school sports. Softball turnout, the "tennis tournament and open swimmingfor women are all available at 4:00 on Tuesday. Softball turnout is continued on Wednesday at thesame time. Badminton and archery are both featured on Thursday afternoon as well as the openswimming again from 4:00 to 5:00. The Twentieth Century bowling alley and the Lakeway golf courseare open to the college girls on Fridays at 4:00. The Recreation committee, consisting of MissMarjorie Muffley and Coach Bill McDonald, p l an hikes and camping trips for Saturdays and week-ends.

Alsoincluded in the program are swimming, hiking, cruises, golf and bowling. All girls interested in theseactivities are advised to contact the women's P. E. department or Miss Margaret Aitken. Spring HasSprung! Crowded tennis courts, freckled faces, a n d light summer dresses are clear evidence thatsummer weather is again on campus. The old familiar battle is on between the outdoor typestudents who wish the class room windows open and the fair lilies who still believe it's too early in the season. Of course, w h e n conscience wins out over desire to soak up more vitamin D and the fairhaired guys and gals end up in class rather than in the sun, the biggest battle is won.

Once more brave and optimistic fishermen may take to the lakes andstreams in pursuit of trout. Almost every man dreams of casually dragging in a battling rainbow whileseveral girls, conspicuous in their bathing suits, watch admiringly from the shore. I was noexception. A fellow dreamer and I cut several classes Tuesday and ventured forth to a nearby lake tosecure a limit of fish and a sun tan. Upon arriving at the lake we were met by a young blizzard. White-caps romped from one end of the pond to another. The girls were conspicuous by their absence.Everything seemed wrong, if normal. Bravely my fellow fisher and I launched our boat, a flat bottomedold scow equipped with a pair of ancient and monstrous oars, and set out for the opposite end of thelake. It was my good fortune to be at the oars. Twenty minutes and twenty feet later my back ached,spray was blowing down my neck and freezing icicles on my prospective Campus day beard, andblisters had popped up on my hands. I put on my overcoat and continued to wrestle with the oars.Several hours later our condition had altered only for the worse. The wind still howled through the holesin our venerable craft, the temperature had dropped several degrees and all the fish were still in thelake. My partner, who is a particularly determined chap, was still trying valiantly to interest a fish,any fish, in some food. Although his teeth were chattering and spray dripped from his soggy clothes, he ignored my pleas to return to the dock. He shouted grimly that we would never return without fish to eat. At that time I developed strong vegetarian yearnings. It wasn't until night had fallen that we came in.One fish, too small and sickly to find natural food, had taken my comrade's lure. It rattled around in hisfish basket and offered very little consolation. Our boat resembled the wreck of the Hesperus, while six inches of water lapped against our numb legs. We left the boat house amidst the jeers of the manager's small daughter. Never again will we fish in that accursed lake. Saturday we are going to a pond wheremy friend guarantees we will catch our legal limit of trout.

RodCardwell, former Western student, is now stationed at George Air Force base, Victorville, California."A bit rougher and a bit more serious," are the words Cardwell uses to compare the differencesbetween the air force now, and the air force at the time of his first enlistment.

While at Western, Cardwellwas active in publications work and was a reporter for the Bellingham Herald. Donald VanWyck former WWC student has been promoted to the grade of corporal in the U.

The group was made up of 18students, accompanied by Miss Mar-jorie Muffly, Miss Katherine Lane, arid Albert Culverwell. Dr.Spearin had preceded the group so that the cabin was warm? upon arrival. Corinne Lund; supervised thetrip and cooking; square dancing, with Miss Muffly calling, provided after-dinner fun. Such is the spirit ofthe club members that Jean Landall continued to dance with a sprained ankle, and Neil Mullen preferredto stay in spite of sustaining injuries on the first trip down. After retiring, Eloise Lund had theunpleasant_ experience of having a mouse run over her; her campariions regard it as only a dream. ,WCIubPrexy Lacks Hot Air That the/ "W" club is not all hot air was evidenced in Sene Carlile's Speech200 class.

"Critics are usually honest land report books adequately," he istated.Michener believes that the purpose of literature is to stir the mind of the reader without offending.
